bbe@Genesis:1:3 @And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

bbe@Genesis:1:5 @Naming the light, Day, and the dark, Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.

bbe@Genesis:1:6 @And God said, Let there be a solid arch stretching over the waters, parting the waters from the waters.

bbe@Genesis:1:8 @And God gave the arch the name of Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.

bbe@Genesis:1:9 @And God said, Let the waters under the heaven come together in one place, and let the dry land be seen: and it was so.

bbe@Genesis:1:10 @And God gave the dry land the name of Earth; and the waters together in their place were named Seas: and God saw that it was good.

bbe@Genesis:1:13 @And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.

bbe@Genesis:1:14 @And God said, Let there be lights in the arch of heaven, for a division between the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for marking the changes of the year, and for days and for years:

bbe@Genesis:1:19 @And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.

bbe@Genesis:1:23 @And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day.

bbe@Genesis:1:31 @And God saw everything which he had made and it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

bbe@Genesis:2:5 @In the day when the Lord God made earth and heaven there were no plants of the field on the earth, and no grass had come up: for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to do work on the land.

bbe@Genesis:2:8 @And the Lord God made a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had made.

bbe@Genesis:2:10 @And a river went out of Eden giving water to the garden; and from there it was parted and became four streams.

bbe@Genesis:2:11 @The name of the first is Pishon, which goes round about all the land of Havilah where there is gold.

bbe@Genesis:2:12 @And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.

bbe@Genesis:2:22 @And the bone which the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman, and took her to the man.

bbe@Genesis:2:23 @And the man said, This is now bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh: let her name be Woman because she was taken out of Man.

bbe@Genesis:2:24 @For this cause will a man go away from his father and his mother and be joined to his wife; and they will be one flesh.

bbe@Genesis:3:6 @And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and a delight to the eyes, and to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and gave it to her husband.

bbe@Genesis:3:7 @And their eyes were open and they were conscious that they had no clothing and they made themselves coats of leaves stitched together.

bbe@Genesis:3:8 @And there came to them the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the evening wind: and the man and his wife went to a secret place among the trees of the garden, away from the eyes of the Lord God.

bbe@Genesis:3:9 @And the voice of the Lord God came to the man, saying, Where are you?

bbe@Genesis:3:15 @And there will be war between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed: by him will your head be crushed and by you his foot will be wounded.

bbe@Genesis:3:20 @And the man gave his wife the name of Eve because she was the mother of all who have life.

bbe@Genesis:4:2 @Then again she became with child and gave birth to Abel, his brother. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a farmer.

bbe@Genesis:4:8 @And Cain said to his brother, Let us go into the field: and when they were in the field, Cain made an attack on his brother Abel and put him to death.

bbe@Genesis:4:9 @And the Lord said to Cain, Where is your brother Abel? And he said, I have no idea: am I my brother's keeper?

bbe@Genesis:4:10 @And he said, What have you done? the voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the earth

bbe@Genesis:4:11 @And now you are cursed from the earth, whose mouth is open to take your brother's blood from your hand;

bbe@Genesis:4:12 @No longer will the earth give you her fruit as the reward of your work; you will be a wanderer in flight over the earth.

bbe@Genesis:4:18 @And Enoch had a son Irad: and Irad became the father of Mehujael: and Mehujael became the father of Methushael: and Methushael became the father of Lamech.

bbe@Genesis:4:19 @And Lamech had two wives; the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.

bbe@Genesis:4:20 @And Adah gave birth to Jabal: he was the father of such as are living in tents and keep cattle.

bbe@Genesis:4:21 @And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all players on instruments of music.

bbe@Genesis:4:22 @And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, who is the father of every maker of cutting instruments of brass and iron: and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.

bbe@Genesis:4:25 @And Adam had connection with his wife again, and she gave birth to a son to whom she gave the name of Seth: for she said, God has given me another seed in place of Abel, whom Cain put to death.

bbe@Genesis:5:6 @And Seth was a hundred and five years old when he became the father of Enosh:

bbe@Genesis:5:9 @And Enosh was ninety years old when he became the father of Kenan:

bbe@Genesis:5:12 @And Kenan was seventy years old when he became the father of Mahalalel:

bbe@Genesis:5:15 @And Mahalalel was sixty-five years old when he became the father of Jared:

bbe@Genesis:5:18 @And Jared was a hundred and sixty-two years old when he became the father of Enoch:

bbe@Genesis:5:21 @And Enoch was sixty-five years old when he became the father of Methuselah:

bbe@Genesis:5:25 @And Methuselah was a hundred and eighty-seven years old when he became the father of Lamech:

bbe@Genesis:5:32 @And when Noah was five hundred years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

bbe@Genesis:6:4 @There were men of great strength and size on the earth in those days; and after that, when the sons of God had connection with the daughters of men, they gave birth to children: these were the great men of old days, the men of great name.

bbe@Genesis:6:14 @Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood with rooms in it, and make it safe from the water inside and out

bbe@Genesis:7:20 @The waters went fifteen cubits higher, till all the mountains were covered.

bbe@Genesis:8:9 @But the dove saw no resting-place for her foot, and came back to the ark, for the waters were still over all the earth; and he put out his hand, and took her into the ark.

bbe@Genesis:8:10 @And after waiting another seven days, he sent the dove out again;

bbe@Genesis:8:11 @And the dove came back at evening, and in her mouth was an olive-leaf broken off: so Noah was certain that the waters had gone down on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:9:5 @And for your blood, which is your life, will I take payment; from every beast I will take it, and from every man will I take payment for the blood of his brother-man.

bbe@Genesis:9:15 @And I will keep in mind the agreement between me and you and every living thing; and never again will there be a great flow of waters causing destruction to all flesh.

bbe@Genesis:9:18 @And the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:9:22 @And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father unclothed, and gave news of it to his two brothers outside.

bbe@Genesis:9:23 @And Shem and Japheth took a robe, and putting it on their backs went in with their faces turned away, and put it over their father so that they might not see him unclothed.

bbe@Genesis:9:25 @Cursed be Canaan; let him be a servant of servants to his brothers.

bbe@Genesis:10:8 @And Cush was the father of Nimrod, who was the first of the great men of the earth.

bbe@Genesis:10:9 @He was a very great bowman, so that there is a saying, Like Nimrod, a very great bowman

bbe@Genesis:10:13 @And Mizraim was the father of the Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim and Naphtuhim;

bbe@Genesis:10:15 @And Canaan was the father of Zidon, who was his oldest son, and Heth,

bbe@Genesis:10:21 @And Shem, the older brother of Japheth, the father of the children of Eber, had other sons in addition.

bbe@Genesis:10:23 @And the sons of Aram: Uz and Hul and Gether and Mash.

bbe@Genesis:10:24 @And Arpachshad became the father of Shelah; and Shelah became the father of Eber.

bbe@Genesis:10:25 @And Eber had two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, because in his time the peoples of the earth became separate; and his brother's name was Joktan.

bbe@Genesis:10:26 @And Joktan was the father of Almodad and Sheleph and Hazarmaveth and Jerah

bbe@Genesis:11:2 @And it came about that in their wandering from the east, they came to a stretch of flat country in the land of Shinar, and there they made their living-place.

bbe@Genesis:11:3 @And they said one to another, Come, let us make bricks, burning them well. And they had bricks for stone, putting them together with sticky earth.

bbe@Genesis:11:7 @Come, let us go down and take away the sense of their language, so that they will not be able to make themselves clear to one another.

bbe@Genesis:11:9 @So it was named Babel, because there the Lord took away the sense of all languages and from there the Lord sent them away over all the face of the earth.

bbe@Genesis:11:10 @These are the generations of Shem. Shem was a hundred years old when he became the father of Arpachshad, two years after the great flow of waters;

bbe@Genesis:11:12 @And Arpachshad was thirty-five years old when he became the father of Shelah:

bbe@Genesis:11:14 @And Shelah was thirty years old when he became the father of Eber:

bbe@Genesis:11:16 @And Eber was thirty-four years old when he became the father of Peleg:

bbe@Genesis:11:18 @And Peleg was thirty years old when he became the father of Reu:

bbe@Genesis:11:20 @And Reu was thirty-two years old when he became the father of Serug:

bbe@Genesis:11:22 @And Serug was thirty years old when he became the father of Nahor:

bbe@Genesis:11:24 @And Nahor was twenty-nine years old when he became the father of Terah:

bbe@Genesis:11:26 @And Terah was seventy years old when he became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

bbe@Genesis:11:27 @These are the generations of Terah: Terah was the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran was the father of Lot.

bbe@Genesis:11:28 @And death came to Haran when he was with his father Terah in the land of his birth, Ur of the Chaldees.

bbe@Genesis:11:29 @And Abram and Nahor took wives for themselves: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife was Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah and Iscah.

bbe@Genesis:11:31 @And Terah took Abram, his son, and Lot, the son of Haran, and Sarai, his daughter-in-law, the wife of his son Abram and they went out from Ur of the Chaldees, to go to the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran, and were there for some time.

bbe@Genesis:12:1 @Now the Lord said to Abram, Go out from your country and from your family and from your father's house, into the land to which I will be your guide:

bbe@Genesis:12:5 @And Abram took Sarai, his wife, and Lot, his brother's son, and all their goods and the servants which they had got in Haran, and they went out to go to the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:12:7 @And the Lord came to Abram, and said, I will give all this land to your seed; then Abram made an altar there to the Lord who had let himself be seen by him.

bbe@Genesis:12:8 @And moving on from there to the mountain on the east of Beth-el, he put up his tent, having Beth-el on the west and Ai on the east: and there he made an altar and gave worship to the name of the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:12:10 @And because there was little food to be had in that land, he went down into Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:12:15 @And Pharaoh's great men, having seen her, said words in praise of her to Pharaoh, and she was taken into Pharaoh's house.

bbe@Genesis:12:16 @And because of her, he was good to Abram, and he had sheep and oxen and asses, and men-servants and women-servants, and camels.

bbe@Genesis:12:19 @Why did you say that she was your sister? so that I took her for my wife: now, take your wife and go on your way.

bbe@Genesis:13:3 @And travelling on from the South, he came to Beth-el, to the place where his tent had been before, between Beth-el and Ai;

bbe@Genesis:13:4 @To the place where he had made his first altar, and there Abram gave worship to the name of the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:13:5 @And Lot, who went with him, had flocks and herds and tents;

bbe@Genesis:13:6 @So that the land was not wide enough for the two of them: their property was so great that there was not room for them together.

bbe@Genesis:13:7 @And there was an argument between the keepers of Abram's cattle and the keepers of Lot's cattle: at that time the Canaanites and Perizzites were still living in the land.

bbe@Genesis:13:8 @Then Abram said to Lot, Let there be no argument between me and you, and between my herdmen and your herdmen, for we are brothers.

bbe@Genesis:13:10 @And Lot, lifting up his eyes and looking an the valley of Jordan, saw that it was well watered everywhere, before the Lord had sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah; it was like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, on the way to Zoar.

bbe@Genesis:13:11 @So Lot took for himself all the valley of Jordan, and went to the east, and they were parted from one another.

bbe@Genesis:13:14 @And the Lord had said to Abram, after Lot was parted from him, From this place where you are take a look to the north and to the south, to the east and to the west:

bbe@Genesis:13:17 @Come, go through all the land from one end to the other for I will give it to you.

bbe@Genesis:13:18 @And Abram, moving his tent, came and made his living-place by the holy tree of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and made an altar there to the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:14:3 @All these came together in the valley of Siddim (which is the Salt Sea).

bbe@Genesis:14:10 @Now the valley of Siddim was full of holes of sticky earth; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah were put to flight and came to their end there, but the rest got away to the mountain.

bbe@Genesis:14:12 @And in addition they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who was living in Sodom, and all his goods.

bbe@Genesis:14:13 @And one who had got away from the fight came and gave word of it to Abram the Hebrew, who was living by the holy tree of Mamre, the Amorite, the brother of Eshcol and Aner, who were friends of Abram.

bbe@Genesis:14:14 @And Abram, hearing that his brother's son had been made a prisoner, took a band of his trained men, three hundred and eighteen of them, sons of his house, and went after them as far as Dan.

bbe@Genesis:14:16 @And he got back all the goods, and Lot, his brother's son, with his goods and the women and the people.

bbe@Genesis:14:17 @And when he was coming back after putting to flight Chedorlaomer and the other kings, he had a meeting with the king of Sodom in the valley of Shaveh, that is, the King's Valley

bbe@Genesis:15:3 @And Abram said, You have given me no child, and a servant in my house will get the heritage.

bbe@Genesis:15:4 @Then said the Lord, This man will not get the heritage, but a son of your body will have your property after you.

bbe@Genesis:15:7 @And he said to him, I am the Lord, who took you from Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land for your heritage.

bbe@Genesis:15:10 @All these he took, cutting them in two and putting one half opposite the other, but not cutting the birds in two.

bbe@Genesis:15:15 @As for you, you will go to your fathers in peace; at the end of a long life you will be put in your last resting-place.

bbe@Genesis:15:16 @And in the fourth generation they will come back here; for at present the sin of the Amorite is not full.

bbe@Genesis:16:2 @And Sarai said to Abram, See, the Lord has not let me have children; go in to my servant, for I may get a family through her. And Abram did as Sarai said.

bbe@Genesis:16:3 @So after Abram had been living for ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai took Hagar, her Egyptian servant, and gave her to Abram for his wife.

bbe@Genesis:16:4 @And he went in to Hagar and she became with child, and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for her master's wife.

bbe@Genesis:16:6 @And Abram said, The woman is in your power; do with her whatever seems good to you. And Sarai was cruel to her, so that she went running away from her.

bbe@Genesis:16:7 @And an angel of the Lord came to her by a fountain of water in the waste land, by the fountain on the way to Shur.

bbe@Genesis:16:8 @And he said, Hagar, Sarai's servant, where have you come from and where are you going? And she said, I am running away from Sarai, my master's wife.

bbe@Genesis:16:9 @And the angel said to her, Go back, and put yourself under her authority.

bbe@Genesis:16:12 @And he will be like a mountain ass among men; his hand will be against every man and every man's hand against him, and he will keep his place against all his brothers.

bbe@Genesis:16:13 @And to the Lord who was talking with her she gave this name, You are a God who is seen; for she said, Have I not even here in the waste land had a vision of God and am still living?

bbe@Genesis:17:4 @As for me, my agreement is made with you, and you will be the father of nations without end.

bbe@Genesis:17:5 @No longer will your name be Abram, but Abraham, for I have made you the father of a number of nations.

bbe@Genesis:17:8 @And to you and to your seed after you, I will give the land in which you are living, all the land of Canaan for an eternal heritage; and I will be their God.

bbe@Genesis:17:12 @Every male among you, from one generation to another, is to undergo circumcision when he is eight days old, with every servant whose birth takes place in your house, or for whom you gave money to someone of another country, and not of your seed.

bbe@Genesis:17:15 @And God said, As for Sarai, your wife, from now her name will be not Sarai, but Sarah.

bbe@Genesis:17:16 @And I will give her a blessing so that you will have a son by her: truly my blessing will be on her, and she will be the mother of nations: kings of peoples will be her offspring.

bbe@Genesis:17:20 @As for Ishmael, I have given ear to your prayer: truly I have given him my blessing and I will make him fertile and give him great increase; he will be the father of twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation.

bbe@Genesis:17:27 @And all the men of his house, those whose birth had taken place in the house and those whom he had got for money from men of other lands, underwent circumcision with him.

bbe@Genesis:18:7 @And running to the herd, he took a young ox, soft and fat, and gave it to the servant and he quickly made it ready;

bbe@Genesis:18:9 @And they said to him, Where is Sarah your wife? And he said, She is in the tent.

bbe@Genesis:18:12 @And Sarah, laughing to herself, said, Now that I am used up am I still to have pleasure, my husband himself being old?

bbe@Genesis:18:14 @Is there any wonder which the Lord is not able to do? At the time I said, in the spring, I will come back to you, and Sarah will have a child.

bbe@Genesis:18:16 @And the men went on from there in the direction of Sodom; and Abraham went with them on their way.

bbe@Genesis:18:24 @If by chance there are fifty upright men in the town, will you give the place to destruction and not have mercy on it because of the fifty upright men?

bbe@Genesis:18:26 @And the Lord said, If there are fifty upright men in the town, I will have mercy on it because of them.

bbe@Genesis:18:28 @If by chance there are five less than fifty upright men, will you give up all the town to destruction because of these five? And he said, I will not give it to destruction if there are forty-five.

bbe@Genesis:18:29 @And again he said to him, By chance there may be forty there. And he said, I will not do it if there are forty.

bbe@Genesis:18:30 @And he said, Let not the Lord be angry with me if I say, What if there are thirty there? And he said, I will not do it if there are thirty.

bbe@Genesis:18:31 @And he said, See now, I have undertaken to put my thoughts before the Lord: what if there are twenty there? And he said, I will have mercy because of the twenty.

bbe@Genesis:18:32 @And he said, O let not the Lord be angry and I will say only one word more: by chance there may be ten there. And he said, I will have mercy because of the ten.

bbe@Genesis:19:2 @And he said, My masters, come now into your servant's house and take your rest there for the night, and let your feet be washed; and early in the morning you may go on your way. And they said, Not so, but we will take our night's rest in the street.

bbe@Genesis:19:5 @And crying out to Lot, they said, Where are the men who came to your house this night? Send them out to us, so that we may take our pleasure with them.

bbe@Genesis:19:7 @And he said, My brothers, do not this evil.

bbe@Genesis:19:9 @And they said, Give way there. This one man, they said, came here from a strange country, and will he now be our judge? now we will do worse to you than to them; and pushing violently against Lot, they came near to get the door broken in.

bbe@Genesis:19:12 @Then the men said to Lot, Are there any others of your family here? sons-in-law or sons or daughters, take them all out of this place;

bbe@Genesis:19:15 @And when morning came, the angels did all in their power to make Lot go, saying, Get up quickly and take your wife and your two daughters who are here, and go, for fear that you come to destruction in the punishment of the town.

bbe@Genesis:19:20 @This town, now, is near, and it is a little one: O, let me go there (is it not a little one?) so that my life may be safe.

bbe@Genesis:19:22 @Go there quickly, for I am not able to do anything till you have come there. For this reason, the town was named Zoar.

bbe@Genesis:19:27 @And Abraham got up early in the morning and went to the place where he had been talking with the Lord:

bbe@Genesis:19:29 @So it came about that when God sent destruction on the towns of the lowland, he kept his word to Abraham, and sent Lot safely away when he put an end to the towns where he was living.

bbe@Genesis:19:30 @Then Lot went up out of Zoar to the mountain, and was living there with his two daughters, for fear kept him from living in Zoar: and he and his daughters made their living-place in a hole in the rock.

bbe@Genesis:19:31 @And the older daughter said to her sister, Our father is old, and there is no man to be a husband to us in the natural way:

bbe@Genesis:19:32 @Come, let us give our father much wine, and we will go into his bed, so that we may have offspring by our father,

bbe@Genesis:19:33 @And that night they made their father take much wine; and the older daughter went into his bed; and he had no knowledge of when she went in or when she went away.

bbe@Genesis:19:34 @And on the day after, the older daughter said to the younger, Last night I was with my father; let us make him take much wine this night again, and do you go to him, so that we may have offspring by our father.

bbe@Genesis:19:35 @And that night again they made their father take much wine; and the younger daughter went into his bed; and he had no knowledge of when she went in or when she went away.

bbe@Genesis:19:36 @And so the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.

bbe@Genesis:19:37 @And the older daughter had a son, and she gave him the name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites to this day.

bbe@Genesis:20:1 @And Abraham went on his way from there to the land of the South, and was living between Kadesh and Shur, in Gerar.

bbe@Genesis:20:4 @Now Abimelech had not come near her; and he said, Lord, will you put to death an upright nation?

bbe@Genesis:20:5 @Did he not say to me himself, She is my sister? and she herself said, He is my brother: with an upright heart and clean hands have I done this.

bbe@Genesis:20:6 @And God said to him in the dream, I see that you have done this with an upright heart, and I have kept you from sinning against me: for this reason I did not let you come near her.

bbe@Genesis:20:7 @So now, give the man back his wife, for he is a prophet, and let him say a prayer for you, so your life may be safe: but if you do not give her back, be certain that death will come to you and all your house.

bbe@Genesis:20:11 @And Abraham said, Because it seemed to me that there was no fear of God in this place, and that they might put me to death because of my wife.

bbe@Genesis:20:12 @And, in fact, she is my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife:

bbe@Genesis:20:13 @And when God sent me wandering from my father's house, I said to her, Let this be the sign of your love for me; wherever we go, say of me, He is my brother.

bbe@Genesis:20:16 @And he said to Sarah, See, I have given to your brother a thousand bits of silver so that your wrong may be put right; now your honour is clear in the eyes of all.

bbe@Genesis:21:1 @And the Lord came to Sarah as he had said and did to her as he had undertaken.

bbe@Genesis:21:7 @And she said, Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would have a child at her breast? for see, I have given him a son now when he is old.

bbe@Genesis:21:10 @So she said to Abraham, Send away that woman and her son: for the son of that woman is not to have a part in the heritage with my son Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:21:12 @But God said, Let it not be a grief to you because of the boy and Hagar his mother; give ear to whatever Sarah says to you, because it is from Isaac that your seed will take its name.

bbe@Genesis:21:14 @And early in the morning Abraham got up, and gave Hagar some bread and a water-skin, and put the boy on her back, and sent her away: and she went, wandering in the waste land of Beer-sheba

bbe@Genesis:21:16 @And she went some distance away, about an arrow flight, and seating herself on the earth, she gave way to bitter weeping, saying, Let me not see the death of my child.

bbe@Genesis:21:19 @Then God made her eyes open, and she saw a water-spring, and she got water in the skin and gave the boy a drink.

bbe@Genesis:21:21 @And while he was in the waste land of Paran, his mother got him a wife from the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:21:23 @Now, then, give me your oath, in the name of God, that you will not be false to me or to my sons after me, but that as I have been good to you, so you will be to me and to this land where you have been living.

bbe@Genesis:21:27 @And Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made an agreement together.

bbe@Genesis:21:31 @So he gave that place the name Beer-sheba, because there the two of them had given their oaths.

bbe@Genesis:22:1 @Now after these things, God put Abraham to the test, and said to him, Abraham; and he said, Here am I.

bbe@Genesis:22:5 @Then he said to his young men, Keep here with the ass; and I and the boy will go on and give worship and come back again to you.

bbe@Genesis:22:6 @And Abraham put the wood for the burned offering on his son's back, and he himself took the fire and the knife in his hand, and the two of them went on together.

bbe@Genesis:22:7 @Then Isaac said to Abraham, My father; and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, We have wood and fire here, but where is the lamb for the burned offering?

bbe@Genesis:22:8 @And Abraham said, God himself will give the lamb for the burned offering: so they went on together.

bbe@Genesis:22:9 @And they came to the place of which God had given him knowledge; and there Abraham made the altar and put the wood in place on it, and having made tight the bands round Isaac his son, he put him on the wood on the altar.

bbe@Genesis:22:11 @But the voice of the angel of the Lord came from heaven, saying, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.

bbe@Genesis:22:19 @Then Abraham went back to his young men and they went together to Beer-sheba, the place where Abraham was living.

bbe@Genesis:22:20 @After these things, Abraham had news that Milcah, the wife of his brother Nahor, had given birth to children;

bbe@Genesis:22:21 @Uz the oldest, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel, the father of Aram,

bbe@Genesis:22:23 @Bethuel was the father of Rebekah: these eight were the children of Milcah and Nahor, Abraham's brother.

bbe@Genesis:23:4 @I am living among you as one from a strange country: give me some land here as my property, so that I may put my dead to rest.

bbe@Genesis:23:6 @My lord, truly you are a great chief among us; take the best of our resting-places for your dead; not one of us will keep back from you a place where you may put your dead to rest.

bbe@Genesis:23:8 @And he said to them, If you will let me put my dead to rest here, make a request for me to Ephron, the son of Zohar,

bbe@Genesis:23:13 @And Abraham said to Ephron, in the hearing of the people of the land, If only you will give ear to me, I will give you the price of the field; take it, and let me put my dead to rest there.

bbe@Genesis:23:15 @My lord, give ear to me: the value of the land is four hundred shekels; what is that between me and you? so put your dead to rest there.

bbe@Genesis:24:4 @But that you will go into my country and to my relations and get a wife there for my son Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:24:7 @The Lord God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my birth, and made an oath to me, saying, To your seed I will give this land: he will send his angel before you and give you a wife for my son in that land.

bbe@Genesis:24:8 @And if the woman will not come with you, then you are free from this oath; only do not take my son back there.

bbe@Genesis:24:13 @See, I am waiting here by the water-spring; and the daughters of the town are coming out to get water:

bbe@Genesis:24:14 @Now, may the girl to whom I say, Let down your vessel and give me a drink, and who says in answer, Here is a drink for you and let me give water to your camels: may she be the one marked out by you for your servant Isaac: so may I be certain that you have been good to my master Abraham.

bbe@Genesis:24:15 @And even before his words were ended, Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, who was the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, came out with her water-vessel on her arm.

bbe@Genesis:24:16 @She was a very beautiful girl, a virgin, who had never been touched by a man: and she went down to the spring to get water in her vessel.

bbe@Genesis:24:17 @And the servant came running to her and said, Give me a little water from your vessel.

bbe@Genesis:24:18 @And she said, Take a drink, my lord: and quickly letting down her vessel onto her hand, she gave him a drink.

bbe@Genesis:24:20 @And after putting the water from her vessel into the animals' drinking-place, she went quickly back to the spring and got water for all the camels

bbe@Genesis:24:21 @And the man, looking at her, said nothing, waiting to see if the Lord had given his journey a good outcome.

bbe@Genesis:24:22 @And when the camels had had enough, the man took a gold nose-ring, half a shekel in weight, and two ornaments for her arms of ten shekels weight of gold;

bbe@Genesis:24:23 @And said to her, Whose daughter are you? is there room in your father's house for us?

bbe@Genesis:24:25 @And she said, We have a great store of dry grass and cattle-food, and there is room for you.

bbe@Genesis:24:28 @So the girl went running and took the news of these things to her mother's house

bbe@Genesis:24:29 @Now Rebekah had a brother named Laban, and he came out quickly to the man at the water-spring.

bbe@Genesis:24:30 @And when he saw the nose-ring and the ornaments on his sister's hands, and when she gave him word of what the man had said to her, then he went out to the man who was waiting with the camels by the water-spring.

bbe@Genesis:24:35 @The Lord has given my master every blessing, and he has become great: he has given him flocks and herds and silver and gold, and men-servants and women-servants and camels and asses.

bbe@Genesis:24:38 @But go to my father's house and to my relations for a wife for my son.

bbe@Genesis:24:40 @And he said, The Lord, whom I have ever kept before me, will send his angel with you, who will make it possible for you to get a wife for my son from my relations and my father's house;

bbe@Genesis:24:41 @And you will be free from your oath to me when you come to my people; and if they will not give her to you, you will be free from your oath.

bbe@Genesis:24:43 @Let it come about that, while I am waiting here by the water-spring, if a girl comes to get water and I say to her, Give me a little water from your vessel, and she says,

bbe@Genesis:24:44 @Take a drink, and I will get water for your camels; let her be the woman marked out by the Lord for my master's son.

bbe@Genesis:24:45 @And even while I was saying this to myself, Rebekah came out with her vessel on her arm; and she went down to the spring to get water; and I said to her, Give me a drink.

bbe@Genesis:24:46 @And straight away she took down her vessel from her arm, and said, Take a drink, and I will get water for your camels.

bbe@Genesis:24:47 @And questioning her, I said, Whose daughter are you? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, the son of Nahor, and Milcah his wife. Then I put the ring on her nose and the ornaments on her hands.

bbe@Genesis:24:48 @And with bent head I gave worship and praise to the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, by whom I had been guided in the right way, to get the daughter of my master's brother for his son.

bbe@Genesis:24:51 @See, here is Rebekah: take her and go, and let her be your master's son's wife, as the Lord has said.

bbe@Genesis:24:53 @Then he took jewels of silver and jewels of gold and fair robes and gave them to Rebekah: and he gave things of value to her mother and her brother.

bbe@Genesis:24:54 @Then he and the men who were with him had food and drink, and took their rest there that night; and in the morning he got up, and said, Let me now go back to my master.

bbe@Genesis:24:55 @But her brother and her mother said, Let the girl be with us a week or ten days, and then she may go.

bbe@Genesis:24:57 @And they said, We will send for the girl, and let her make the decision.

bbe@Genesis:24:58 @And they sent for Rebekah and said to her, Are you ready to go with this man? And she said, I am ready.

bbe@Genesis:24:59 @So they sent their sister Rebekah and her servant with Abraham's servant and his men.

bbe@Genesis:24:60 @And they gave Rebekah their blessing, saying, O sister, may you be the mother of thousands and ten thousands; and may your seed overcome all those who make war against them.

bbe@Genesis:24:61 @So Rebekah and her servant-women went with the man, seated on the camels; and so the servant took Rebekah and went on his way.

bbe@Genesis:24:64 @And when Rebekah, looking up, saw Isaac, she got down from her camel,

bbe@Genesis:24:65 @And said to the servant, Who is that man coming to us through the field? And the servant said, It is my master: then she took her veil, covering her face with it.

bbe@Genesis:24:67 @And Isaac took Rebekah into his tent and she became his wife; and in his love for her, Isaac was comforted after his father's death.

bbe@Genesis:25:1 @And Abraham took another wife named Keturah.

bbe@Genesis:25:2 @She became the mother of Zimran and Jokshan and Medan and Midian and Ishbak and Shuah.

bbe@Genesis:25:3 @And Jokshan became the father of Sheba and Dedan. And from Dedan came the Asshurim and Letushim and Leummim.

bbe@Genesis:25:4 @And from Midian came Ephah and Epher and Hanoch and Abida and Eldaah. All these were the offspring of Keturah.

bbe@Genesis:25:6 @But to the sons of his other women he gave offerings, and sent them away, while he was still living, into the east country.

bbe@Genesis:25:10 @The same field which Abraham got from the children of Heth: there Abraham was put to rest with Sarah, his wife.

bbe@Genesis:25:12 @Now these are the generations of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, whose mother was Hagar the Egyptian, the servant of Sarah:

bbe@Genesis:25:18 @And their country was from Havilah to Shur which is east of Egypt: they took their place to the east of all their brothers.

bbe@Genesis:25:22 @And the children were fighting together inside her, and she said, If it is to be so, why am I like this? So she went to put her question to the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:25:23 @And the Lord said to her, Two nations are in your body, and two peoples will come to birth from you: the one will be stronger than the other, and the older will be the servant of the younger.

bbe@Genesis:25:24 @And when the time came for her to give birth, there were two children in her body.

bbe@Genesis:25:26 @And after him, his brother came out, gripping Esau's foot; and he was named Jacob: Isaac was sixty years old when she gave birth to them.

bbe@Genesis:26:3 @Keep in this land, and I will be with you and give you my blessing; for to you and to your seed will I give all these lands, giving effect to the oath which I made to your father Abraham;

bbe@Genesis:26:8 @And when he had been there for some time, Abimelech, king of the Philistines, looking through a window, saw Isaac playing with Rebekah his wife.

bbe@Genesis:26:9 @And he said to Isaac, It is clear that she is your wife: why then did you say, She is my sister? And Isaac said, For fear that I might be put to death because of her.

bbe@Genesis:26:14 @For he had great wealth of flocks and herds and great numbers of servants; so that the Philistines were full of envy.

bbe@Genesis:26:15 @Now all the water-holes, which his father's servants had made in the days of Abraham, had been stopped up with earth by the Philistines.

bbe@Genesis:26:17 @So Isaac went away from there, and put up his tents in the valley of Gerar, making his living-place there.

bbe@Genesis:26:18 @And he made again the water-holes which had been made in the days of Abraham his father, and which had been stopped up by the Philistines; and he gave them the names which his father had given them.

bbe@Genesis:26:20 @But the herdmen of Gerar had a fight with Isaac's herdmen, for they said, The spring is ours: so he gave the spring the name of Esek, because there was a fight about it.

bbe@Genesis:26:21 @Then they made another water-hole, and there was a fight about that, so he gave it the name of Sitnah.

bbe@Genesis:26:22 @Then he went away from there, and made another water-hole, about which there was no fighting: so he gave it the name of Rehoboth, for he said, Now the Lord has made room for us, and we will have fruit in this land.

bbe@Genesis:26:23 @And from there he went on to Beer-sheba.

bbe@Genesis:26:24 @That night the Lord came to him in a vision, and said, I am the God of your father Abraham: have no fear for I am with you, blessing you, and your seed will be increased because of my servant Abraham.

bbe@Genesis:26:25 @Then he made an altar there, and gave worship to the name of the Lord, and he put up his tents there, and there his servants made a water-hole.

bbe@Genesis:26:28 @And they said, We saw clearly that the Lord was with you: so we said, Let there be an oath between us and you, and let us make an agreement with you;

bbe@Genesis:26:31 @And early in the morning they took an oath one to the other: then Isaac sent them away and they went on their way in peace.

bbe@Genesis:27:1 @Now when Isaac was old and his eyes had become clouded so that he was not able to see, he sent for Esau, his first son, and said to him, My son: and he said, Here am I.

bbe@Genesis:27:6 @And Rebekah said to Jacob, her son, Your father said to your brother Esau in my hearing,

bbe@Genesis:27:9 @Go to the flock and get me two fat young goats; and I will make of them a meal to your father's taste:

bbe@Genesis:27:11 @And Jacob said to Rebekah, his mother, But Esau my brother is covered with hair, while I am smooth:

bbe@Genesis:27:12 @If by chance my father puts his hand on me, it will seem to him that I am tricking him, and he will put a curse on me in place of a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:13 @And his mother said, Let the curse be on me, my son: only do as I say, and go and get them for me

bbe@Genesis:27:14 @So he went and got them and took them to his mother: and she made a meal to his father's taste.

bbe@Genesis:27:15 @And Rebekah took the fair robes of her oldest son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob, her younger son:

bbe@Genesis:27:17 @And she gave into the hand of Jacob, her son, the meat and the bread which she had made ready.

bbe@Genesis:27:18 @And he came to his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I: who are you, my son?

bbe@Genesis:27:22 @And Jacob went near his father Isaac: and he put his hands on him; and he said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.

bbe@Genesis:27:23 @And he did not make out who he was, because his hands were covered with hair like his brother Esau's hands: so he gave him a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:26 @And his father Isaac said to him, Come near now, my son, and give me a kiss.

bbe@Genesis:27:29 @Let peoples be your servants, and nations go down before you: be lord over your brothers, and let your mother's sons go down before you: a curse be on everyone by whom you are cursed, and a blessing on those who give you a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:30 @And when Isaac had come to the end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob had not long gone away from Isaac his father, Esau came in from the field.

bbe@Genesis:27:31 @And he made ready a meal, good to the taste, and took it to his father, and said to him, Let my father get up and take of his son's meat, so that you may give me a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:32 @And Isaac his father said to him, Who are you? And he said, I am your oldest son, Esau.

bbe@Genesis:27:34 @And hearing the words of his father, Esau gave a great and bitter cry, and said to his father, Give a blessing to me, even to me, O my father!

bbe@Genesis:27:35 @And he said, Your brother came with deceit, and took away your blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:37 @And Isaac answering said, But I have made him your master, and have given him all his brothers for servants; I have made him strong with grain and wine: what then am I to do for you, my son?

bbe@Genesis:27:38 @And Esau said to his father, Is that the only blessing you have, my father? give a blessing to me, even me! And Esau was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:27:39 @Then Isaac his father made answer and said to him, Far from the fertile places of the earth, and far from the dew of heaven on high will your living-place be:

bbe@Genesis:27:40 @By your sword will you get your living and you will be your brother's servant; but when your power is increased his yoke will be broken from off your neck.

bbe@Genesis:27:41 @So Esau was full of hate for Jacob because of his father's blessing; and he said in his heart, The days of weeping for my father are near; then I will put my brother Jacob to death.

bbe@Genesis:27:42 @Then Rebekah, hearing what Esau had said, sent for Jacob, her younger son, and said to him, It seems that your brother Esau is purposing to put you to death.

bbe@Genesis:27:43 @So now, my son, do what I say: go quickly to Haran, to my brother Laban;

bbe@Genesis:27:44 @And be there with him for a little time, till your brother's wrath is turned away;

bbe@Genesis:28:2 @But go to Paddan-aram, to the house of Bethuel, your mother's father, and there get yourself a wife from the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.

bbe@Genesis:28:4 @And may God give you the blessing of Abraham, to you and to your seed, so that the land of your wanderings, which God gave to Abraham, may be your heritage.

bbe@Genesis:28:5 @So Isaac sent Jacob away: and he went to Paddan-aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramaean, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

bbe@Genesis:28:6 @So when Esau saw that Isaac had given Jacob his blessing, and sent him away to Paddan-aram to get a wife for himself there, blessing him and saying to him, Do not take a wife from among the women of Canaan;

bbe@Genesis:28:7 @And that Jacob had done as his father and mother said and had gone to Paddan-aram;

bbe@Genesis:28:8 @It was clear to Esau that his father had no love for the women of Canaan,

bbe@Genesis:28:11 @And coming to a certain place, he made it his resting-place for the night, for the sun had gone down; and he took one of the stones which were there, and putting it under his head he went to sleep in that place.

bbe@Genesis:28:13 @And he saw the Lord by his side, saying, I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac: I will give to you and to your seed this land on which you are sleeping.

bbe@Genesis:28:15 @And truly, I will be with you, and will keep you wherever you go, guiding you back again to this land; and I will not give you up till I have done what I have said to you

bbe@Genesis:28:21 @So that I come again to my father's house in peace, then I will take the Lord to be my God,

bbe@Genesis:29:2 @And there he saw a water-hole in a field, and by the side of it three flocks of sheep, for there they got water for the sheep: and on the mouth of the water-hole there was a great stone.

bbe@Genesis:29:3 @And all the flocks would come together there, and when the stone had been rolled away, they would give the sheep water, and put the stone back again in its place on the mouth of the water-hole.

bbe@Genesis:29:4 @Then Jacob said to the herdmen, My brothers, where do you come from? And they said, From Haran.

bbe@Genesis:29:6 @And he said to them, Is he well? And they said, He is well, and here is Rachel his daughter coming with the sheep.

bbe@Genesis:29:7 @Then Jacob said, The sun is still high and it is not time to get the cattle together: get water for the sheep and go and give them their food.

bbe@Genesis:29:8 @And they said, We are not able to do so till all the flocks have come together and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the water-hole; then we will get water for the sheep.

bbe@Genesis:29:9 @While he was still talking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she took care of them.

bbe@Genesis:29:10 @Then when Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, coming with Laban's sheep, he came near, and rolling the stone away from the mouth of the hole, he got water for Laban's flock.

bbe@Genesis:29:12 @And Rachel, hearing from Jacob that he was her father's relation and that he was the son of Rebekah, went running to give her father news of it.

bbe@Genesis:29:15 @Then Laban said to Jacob, Because you are my brother are you to be my servant for nothing? say now, what is your payment to be?

bbe@Genesis:29:19 @And Laban said, It is better for you to have her than another man: go on living here with me.

bbe@Genesis:29:20 @And Jacob did seven years' work for Rachel; and because of his love for her it seemed to him only a very little time.

bbe@Genesis:29:21 @Then Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife so that I may have her, for the days are ended.

bbe@Genesis:29:22 @And Laban got together all the men of the place and gave a feast.

bbe@Genesis:29:23 @And in the evening he took Leah, his daughter, and gave her to him, and he went in to her.

bbe@Genesis:29:24 @And Laban gave Zilpah, his servant-girl, to Leah, to be her waiting-woman.

bbe@Genesis:29:27 @Let the week of the bride-feast come to its end and then we will give you the other in addition, if you will be my servant for another seven years.

bbe@Genesis:29:29 @And Laban gave Rachel his servant-girl Bilhah to be her waiting-woman.

bbe@Genesis:29:30 @Then Jacob took Rachel as his wife, and his love for her was greater than his love for Leah; and he went on working for Laban for another seven years.

bbe@Genesis:29:31 @Now the Lord, seeing that Leah was not loved, gave her a child; while Rachel had no children.

bbe@Genesis:30:1 @Now Rachel, because she had no children, was full of envy of her sister; and she said to Jacob, If you do not give me children I will not go on living.

bbe@Genesis:30:3 @Then she said, Here is my servant Bilhah, go in to her, so that she may have a child on my knees, and I may have a family by her.

bbe@Genesis:30:4 @So she gave him her servant Bilhah as a wife, and Jacob went in to her.

bbe@Genesis:30:8 @And Rachel said, I have had a great fight with my sister, and I have overcome her: and she gave the child the name Naphtali.

bbe@Genesis:30:9 @When it was clear to Leah that she would have no more children for a time, she gave Zilpah, her servant, to Jacob as a wife.

bbe@Genesis:30:13 @And Leah said, Happy am I! and all women will give witness to my joy: and she gave him the name Asher.

bbe@Genesis:30:14 @Now at the time of the grain-cutting, Reuben saw some love-fruits in the field, and took them to his mother Leah. And Rachel said to her, Let me have some of your son's love-fruits.

bbe@Genesis:30:15 @But Leah said to her, Is it a small thing that you have taken my husband from me? and now would you take my son's love-fruits? Then Rachel said, You may have him tonight in exchange for your son's love-fruits.

bbe@Genesis:30:16 @In the evening, when Jacob came in from the field, Leah went out to him and said, Tonight you are to come to me, for I have given my son's love-fruits as a price for you. And he went in to her that night.

bbe@Genesis:30:17 @And God gave ear to her and she became with child, and gave Jacob a fifth son.

bbe@Genesis:30:18 @Then Leah said, God has made payment to me for giving my servant-girl to my husband: so she gave her son the name Issachar.

bbe@Genesis:30:22 @Then God gave thought to Rachel, and hearing her prayer he made her fertile.

bbe@Genesis:30:24 @And she gave him the name Joseph, saying, May the Lord give me another son.

bbe@Genesis:30:38 @And he put the banded sticks in the drinking-places where the flock came to get water; and they became with young when they came to the water.

bbe@Genesis:31:1 @Now it came to the ears of Jacob that Laban's sons were saying, Jacob has taken away all our father's property, and in this way he has got all this wealth.

bbe@Genesis:31:3 @Then the Lord said to Jacob, Go back to the land of your fathers, and to your relations, and I will be with you.

bbe@Genesis:31:5 @And he said to them, It is clear to me that your father's feeling is no longer what it was to me; but the God of my father has been with me

bbe@Genesis:31:6 @And you have seen how I have done all in my power for your father,

bbe@Genesis:31:7 @But your father has not kept faith with me, and ten times he has made changes in my payment; but God has kept him from doing me damage.

bbe@Genesis:31:9 @So God has taken away your father's cattle and has given them to me.

bbe@Genesis:31:11 @And in my dream the angel of the Lord said to me, Jacob: and I said, Here am I.

bbe@Genesis:31:13 @I am the God of Beth-el, where you put oil on the pillar and took an oath to me: now then, come out of this land and go back to the country of your birth.

bbe@Genesis:31:14 @Then Rachel and Leah said to him in answer, What part or heritage is there for us in our father's house?

bbe@Genesis:31:18 @And sending on before him all his cattle and his property which he had got together in Paddan-aram, he made ready to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:31:19 @Now Laban had gone to see to the cutting of the wool of his sheep; so Rachel secretly took the images of the gods of her father's house.

bbe@Genesis:31:25 @Now when Laban overtook him, Jacob had put up his tent in the hill-country; and Laban and his brothers put up their tents in the hill-country of Gilead.

bbe@Genesis:31:29 @It is in my power to do you damage: but the God of your father came to me this night, saying, Take care that you say nothing good or bad to Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:31:30 @And now, it seems, you are going because your heart's desire is for your father's house; but why have you taken my gods?

bbe@Genesis:31:33 @So Laban went into Jacob's tent and into Leah's tent, and into the tents of the two servant-women, but they were not there; and he came out of Leah's tent and went into Rachel's.

bbe@Genesis:31:35 @And she said to her father, Let not my lord be angry because I do not get up before you, for I am in the common condition of women. And with all his searching, he did not come across the images.

bbe@Genesis:31:42 @If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been with me, you would have sent me away with nothing in my hands. But God has seen my troubles and the work of my hands, and this night he kept you back.

bbe@Genesis:31:46 @And Jacob said to his people, Get stones together; and they did so; and they had a meal there by the stones.

bbe@Genesis:31:49 @And Mizpah, for he said, May the Lord keep watch on us when we are unable to see one another's doings.

bbe@Genesis:31:50 @If you are cruel to my daughters, or if you take other wives in addition to my daughters, then though no man is there to see, God will be the witness between us.

bbe@Genesis:31:53 @May the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, be our judge. Then Jacob took an oath by the Fear of his father Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:32:3 @Now Jacob sent servants before him to Esau, his brother, in the land of Seir, the country of Edom;

bbe@Genesis:32:6 @When the servants came back they said, We have seen your brother Esau and he is coming out to you, and four hundred men with him.

bbe@Genesis:32:7 @Then Jacob was in great fear and trouble of mind: and he put all the people and the flocks and the herds and the camels into two groups;

bbe@Genesis:32:8 @And said, If Esau, meeting one group, makes an attack on them, the others will get away safely.

bbe@Genesis:32:9 @Then Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, the God of my father Isaac, the Lord who said to me, Go back to your country and your family and I will be good to you:

bbe@Genesis:32:11 @Be my saviour from the hand of Esau, my brother: for my fear is that he will make an attack on me, putting to death mother and child.

bbe@Genesis:32:13 @Then he put up his tent there for the night; and from among his goods he took, as an offering for his brother Esau,

bbe@Genesis:32:16 @These he gave to his servants, every herd by itself, and he said to his servants, Go on before me, and let there be a space between one herd and another.

bbe@Genesis:32:17 @And he gave orders to the first, saying, When my brother Esau comes to you and says, Whose servant are you, and where are you going, and whose are these herds?

bbe@Genesis:32:19 @And he gave the same orders to the second and the third and to all those who were with the herds, saying, This is what you are to say to Esau when you see him;

bbe@Genesis:32:20 @And you are to say further, Jacob, your servant, is coming after us. For he said to himself, I will take away his wrath by the offering which I have sent on, and then I will come before him: it may be that I will have grace in his eyes.

bbe@Genesis:33:2 @He put the servants and their children in front, Leah and her children after them, and Rachel and Joseph at the back.

bbe@Genesis:33:3 @And he himself, going before them, went down on his face to the earth seven times till he came near his brother.

bbe@Genesis:33:7 @And Leah came near with her children, and then Joseph and Rachel, and they did the same.

bbe@Genesis:33:8 @And he said, What were all those herds which I saw on the way? And Jacob said, They were an offering so that I might have grace in my lord's eyes.

bbe@Genesis:33:9 @But Esau said, I have enough; keep what is yours, my brother, for yourself.

bbe@Genesis:33:12 @And he said, Let us go on our journey together, and I will go in front.

bbe@Genesis:33:13 @But Jacob said, My lord may see that the children are only small, and there are young ones in my flocks and herds: one day's over-driving will be the destruction of all the flock.

bbe@Genesis:33:15 @And Esau said, Then keep some of my men with you. And he said, What need is there for that, if my lord is pleased with me?

bbe@Genesis:33:17 @And Jacob went on to Succoth, where he made a house for himself and put up tents for his cattle: for this reason the place was named Succoth.

bbe@Genesis:33:20 @And there he put up an altar, naming it El, the God of Israel.

bbe@Genesis:34:2 @And when Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite who was the chief of that land, saw her, he took her by force and had connection with her.

bbe@Genesis:34:3 @Then his heart went out in love to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he said comforting words to her.

bbe@Genesis:34:4 @And Shechem said to Hamor, his father, Get me this girl for my wife.

bbe@Genesis:34:6 @Then Hamor, the father of Shechem, came out to have a talk with Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:34:8 @But Hamor said to them, Shechem, my son, is full of desire for your daughter: will you then give her to him for a wife?

bbe@Genesis:34:9 @And let our two peoples be joined together; give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.

bbe@Genesis:34:10 @Go on living with us, and the country will be open to you; do trade and get property there.

bbe@Genesis:34:11 @And Shechem said to her father and her brothers, If you will give ear to my request, whatever you say I will give to you.

bbe@Genesis:34:13 @But the sons of Jacob gave a false answer to Shechem and Hamor his father, because of what had been done to Dinah their sister.

bbe@Genesis:34:19 @And without loss of time the young man did as they said, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter, and he was the noblest of his father's house.

bbe@Genesis:34:21 @It is the desire of these men to be at peace with us; let them then go on living in this country and doing trade here, for the country is wide open before them; let us take their daughters as wives and let us give them our daughters.

bbe@Genesis:34:25 @But on the third day after, before the wounds were well, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their swords and came into the town by surprise and put all the males to death.

bbe@Genesis:34:28 @They took their flocks and their herds and their asses and everything in their town and in their fields,

bbe@Genesis:34:30 @And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, You have made trouble for me and given me a bad name among the people of this country, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and because we are small in number they will come together against me and make war on me; and it will be the end of me and all my people.

bbe@Genesis:35:1 @And God said to Jacob, Go up now to Beth-el and make your living-place there: and put up an altar there to the God who came to you when you were in flight from your brother Esau.

bbe@Genesis:35:3 @And let us go up to Beth-el: and there I will make an altar to God, who gave me an answer in the day of my trouble, and was with me wherever I went.

bbe@Genesis:35:7 @And there he made an altar, naming the place El-beth-el: because it was there he had the vision of God when he was in flight from his brother.

bbe@Genesis:35:8 @And Deborah, the servant who had taken care of Rebekah from her birth, came to her end, and was put to rest near Beth-el, under the holy tree: and they gave it the name of Allon-bacuth.

bbe@Genesis:35:13 @Then God went up from him in the place where he had been talking with him.

bbe@Genesis:35:14 @And Jacob put up a pillar in the place where he had been talking with God, and put a drink offering on it, and oil.

bbe@Genesis:35:15 @And he gave to the place where God had been talking with him, the name of Beth-el.

bbe@Genesis:35:17 @And when her pain was very great, the woman who was helping her said, Have no fear; for now you will have another son.

bbe@Genesis:35:18 @And in the hour when her life went from her (for death came to her), she gave the child the name Ben-oni: but his father gave him the name of Benjamin.

bbe@Genesis:35:19 @So Rachel came to her end and was put to rest on the road to Ephrath (which is Beth-lehem).

bbe@Genesis:35:20 @And Jacob put up a pillar on her resting-place; which is named, The Pillar of the resting-place of Rachel, to this day.

bbe@Genesis:35:21 @And Israel went journeying on and put up his tents on the other side of the tower of the flock.

bbe@Genesis:35:22 @Now while they were living in that country, Reuben had connection with Bilhah, his father's servant-woman: and Israel had news of it.

bbe@Genesis:35:26 @The sons of Zilpah, Leah's servant: Gad and Asher; these are the sons whom Jacob had in Paddan-aram.

bbe@Genesis:35:27 @And Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, at Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac had been living.

bbe@Genesis:35:29 @Then Isaac came to his end and was put to rest with his father's people, an old man after a long life: and Jacob and Esau, his sons, put him in his last resting-place.

bbe@Genesis:36:4 @Adah had a son Eliphaz; and Basemath was the mother of Reuel;

bbe@Genesis:36:5 @Oholibamah was the mother of Jeush, Jalam, and Korah; these are the sons of Esau, whose birth took place in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:36:6 @Esau took his wives and his sons and his daughters, and all the people of his house, and his beasts and his cattle and all his goods which he had got together in the land of Canaan, and went into the land of Seir, away from his brother Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:36:9 @And these are the generations of Esau, the father of the Edomites in the hill-country of Seir:

bbe@Genesis:36:14 @And these are the sons of Esau's wife Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon: she was the mother of Jeush, Jalam, and Korah.

bbe@Genesis:36:24 @And these are the children of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah; that same Anah who made the discovery of the water-springs in the waste land, when he was looking after the asses of his father Zibeon.

bbe@Genesis:36:31 @And these are the kings who were ruling in the land of Edom before there was any king over the children of Israel.

bbe@Genesis:36:43 @Magdiel, Iram; these are the Edomite chiefs, in their places in their heritage; this is Esau, the father of the Edomites.

bbe@Genesis:37:1 @Now Jacob was living in the land where his father had made a place for himself, in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:37:2 @These are the generations of Jacob: Joseph, a boy seventeen years old, was looking after the flock, together with his brothers, the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph gave their father a bad account of them.

bbe@Genesis:37:3 @Now the love which Israel had for Joseph was greater than his love for all his other children, because he got him when he was an old man: and he had a long coat made for him.

bbe@Genesis:37:4 @And because his brothers saw that Joseph was dearer to his father than all the others, they were full of hate for him, and would not say a kind word to him.

bbe@Genesis:37:5 @Now Joseph had a dream, and he gave his brothers an account of it, which made their hate greater than ever.

bbe@Genesis:37:7 @We were in the field, getting the grain stems together, and my grain kept upright, and yours came round and went down on the earth before mine.

bbe@Genesis:37:8 @And his brothers said to him, Are you to be our king? will you have authority over us? And because of his dream and his words, their hate for him became greater than ever.

bbe@Genesis:37:9 @Then he had another dream, and gave his brothers an account of it, saying, I have had another dream: the sun and the moon and eleven stars gave honour to me.

bbe@Genesis:37:10 @And he gave word of it to his father and his brothers; but his father protesting said, What sort of a dream is this? am I and your mother and your brothers to go down on our faces to the earth before you?

bbe@Genesis:37:11 @And his brothers were full of envy; but his father kept his words in mind.

bbe@Genesis:37:12 @Now his brothers went to keep watch over their father's flock in Shechem.

bbe@Genesis:37:13 @And Israel said to Joseph, Are not your brothers with the flock in Shechem? come, I will send you to them. And he said to him, Here am I.

bbe@Genesis:37:14 @And he said to him, Go now, and see if your brothers are well and how the flock is; then come back and give me word. So he sent him out of the valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.

bbe@Genesis:37:16 @And he said, I am looking for my brothers; please give me word of where they are keeping their flock.

bbe@Genesis:37:17 @And the man said, They have gone away from here, for they said in my hearing, Let us go to Dothan. So Joseph went after them and came up with them at Dothan.

bbe@Genesis:37:19 @Saying to one another, See, here comes this dreamer.

bbe@Genesis:37:22 @Do not put him to a violent death, but let him be placed in one of the holes; this he said to keep him safe from their hands, with the purpose of taking him back to his father again.

bbe@Genesis:37:23 @So when Joseph came to his brothers, they took off his long coat which he had on;

bbe@Genesis:37:26 @And Judah said to his brothers, What profit is there in putting our brother to death and covering up his blood?

bbe@Genesis:37:27 @Let us give him to these Ishmaelites for a price, and let us not put violent hands on him, for he is our brother, our flesh. And his brothers gave ear to him.

bbe@Genesis:37:29 @Now when Reuben came back to the hole, Joseph was not there; and giving signs of grief,

bbe@Genesis:37:30 @He went back to his brothers, and said, The child is gone; what am I to do?

bbe@Genesis:37:32 @And they took the coat to their father, and said, We came across this; is it your son's coat or not?

bbe@Genesis:37:35 @And all his sons and all his daughters came to give him comfort, but he would not be comforted, saying with weeping, I will go down to the underworld to my son. So great was his father's sorrow for him.

bbe@Genesis:38:1 @Now at that time, Judah went away from his brothers and became the friend of a man of Adullam named Hirah.

bbe@Genesis:38:2 @And there he saw the daughter of a certain man of Canaan named Shua, and took her as his wife.

bbe@Genesis:38:5 @Then she had another son, to whom she gave the name Shelah; she was at Chezib when the birth took place.

bbe@Genesis:38:6 @And Judah took a wife for his first son Er, and her name was Tamar.

bbe@Genesis:38:8 @Then Judah said to Onan, Go in to your brother's wife and do what it is right for a husband's brother to do; make her your wife and get offspring for your brother.

bbe@Genesis:38:9 @But Onan, seeing that the offspring would not be his, went in to his brother's wife, but let his seed go on to the earth, so that he might not get offspring for his brother.

bbe@Genesis:38:10 @And what he did was evil in the eyes of the Lord, so that he put him to death, like his brother.

bbe@Genesis:38:11 @Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, Go back to your father's house and keep yourself as a widow till my son Shelah becomes a man: for he had in his mind the thought that death might come to him as it had come to his brothers. So Tamar went back to her father's house.

bbe@Genesis:38:12 @And after a time, Bath-shua, Judah's wife, came to her end; and after Judah was comforted for her loss, he went to Timnah, where they were cutting the wool of his sheep, and his friend Hirah of Adullam went with him.

bbe@Genesis:38:13 @And when Tamar had news that her father-in-law was going up to Timnah to the wool-cutting,

bbe@Genesis:38:14 @She took off her widow's clothing, and covering herself with her veil, she took her seat near Enaim on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was now a man, but she had not been made his wife.

bbe@Genesis:38:15 @When Judah saw her he took her to be a loose woman of the town, because her face was covered.

bbe@Genesis:38:16 @And turning to her by the roadside, he said to her, Let me come in to you; for he had no idea that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said, What will you give me as my price?

bbe@Genesis:38:18 @And he said, What would you have? And she said, Your ring and its cord and the stick in your hand. So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she became with child by him.

bbe@Genesis:38:19 @Then she got up and went away and took off her veil and put on her widow's clothing.

bbe@Genesis:38:20 @Then Judah sent his friend Hirah with the young goat, to get back the things which he had given as a sign to the woman: but she was not there.

bbe@Genesis:38:21 @And he put questions to the men of the place, saying, Where is the loose woman who was in Enaim by the wayside? And they said, There was no such woman there.

bbe@Genesis:38:22 @So he went back to Judah, and said, I have not seen her, and the men of the place say that there is no such woman there.

bbe@Genesis:38:23 @And Judah said, Let her keep the things, so that we may not be shamed; I sent the young goat, but you did not see the woman.

bbe@Genesis:38:24 @Now about three months after this, word came to Judah that Tamar, his daughter-in-law, had been acting like a loose woman and was with child. And Judah said, Take her out and let her be burned.

bbe@Genesis:38:25 @And while she was being taken out, she sent word to her father-in-law, saying, The man whose property these things are, is the father of my child: say then, whose are this ring and this cord and this stick?

bbe@Genesis:38:26 @Then Judah said openly that they were his, and said, She is more upright than I am, for I did not give her to Shelah my son. And he had no more connection with her.

bbe@Genesis:38:27 @And when the time came for her to give birth, it was clear that there were two children in her body.

bbe@Genesis:38:28 @And while she was in the act of giving birth, one of them put out his hand; and the woman who was with her put a red thread round his hand, saying, This one came out first.

bbe@Genesis:38:29 @But then he took his hand back again, and his brother came first to birth: and the woman said, What an opening you have made for yourself! So he was named Perez.

bbe@Genesis:38:30 @And then his brother came out, with the red thread round his hand, and he was named Zerah.

bbe@Genesis:39:1 @Now Joseph was taken down to Egypt; and Potiphar the Egyptian, a captain of high position in Pharaoh's house, got him for a price from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.

bbe@Genesis:39:8 @But he would not, and said to her, You see that my master keeps no account of what I do in his house, and has put all his property in my control;

bbe@Genesis:39:10 @And day after day she went on requesting Joseph to come to her and be her lover, but he would not give ear to her.

bbe@Genesis:39:13 @And when she saw that he had got away, letting her keep his coat,

bbe@Genesis:39:14 @She sent for the men of her house and said to them, See, he has let a Hebrew come here and make sport of us; he came to my bed, and I gave a loud cry;

bbe@Genesis:39:16 @And she kept his coat by her, till his master came back.

bbe@Genesis:39:20 @And Joseph's master took him and put him in prison, in the place where the king's prisoners were kept in chains, and he was there in the prison-house.

bbe@Genesis:39:22 @And the keeper of the prison put all the prisoners under Joseph's control, and he was responsible for whatever was done there.

bbe@Genesis:40:3 @And he put them in prison under the care of the captain of the army, in the same prison where Joseph himself was shut up.

bbe@Genesis:40:16 @Now when the chief bread-maker saw that the first dream had a good sense, he said to Joseph, I had a dream; and in my dream there were three baskets of white bread on my head;

bbe@Genesis:40:20 @Now the third day was Pharaoh's birthday, and he gave a feast for all his servants; and he gave honour to the chief wine-servant and the chief bread-maker among the others.

bbe@Genesis:41:3 @And after them seven other cows came out of the Nile, poor-looking and thin; and they were by the side of the other cows.

bbe@Genesis:41:6 @And after them came up seven other heads, thin and wasted by the east wind.

bbe@Genesis:41:10 @Pharaoh had been angry with his servants, and had put me in prison in the house of the captain of the army, together with the chief bread-maker;

bbe@Genesis:41:12 @And there was with us a young Hebrew, the captain's servant, and when we put our dreams before him, he gave us the sense of them.

bbe@Genesis:41:16 @Then Joseph said, Without God there will be no answer of peace for Pharaoh.

bbe@Genesis:41:19 @Then after them came seven other cows, very thin and poor-looking, worse than any I ever saw in the land of Egypt;

bbe@Genesis:41:23 @And then I saw seven other heads, dry, thin, and wasted by the east wind, coming up after them:

bbe@Genesis:41:27 @The seven thin and poor-looking cows who came up after them are seven years; and the seven heads of grain, dry and wasted by the east wind, are seven years when there will be no food.

bbe@Genesis:41:29 @Seven years are coming in which there will be great wealth of grain in Egypt;

bbe@Genesis:41:30 @And after that will come seven years when there will not be enough food; and the memory of the good years will go from men's minds; and the land will be made waste by the bad years;

bbe@Genesis:41:35 @And let them get together all the food in those good years and make a store of grain under Pharaoh's control for the use of the towns, and let them keep it.

bbe@Genesis:41:38 @Then Pharaoh said to his servants, Where may we get such a man as this, a man in whom is the spirit of God?

bbe@Genesis:41:39 @And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Seeing that God has made all this clear to you, there is no other man of such wisdom and good sense as you:

bbe@Genesis:41:45 @And Pharaoh gave Joseph the name of Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, the priest of On, to be his wife. So Joseph went through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:41:48 @And Joseph got together all the food of those seven years, and made a store of food in the towns: the produce of the fields round every town was stored up in the town.

bbe@Genesis:41:49 @So he got together a store of grain like the sand of the sea; so great a store that after a time he gave up measuring it, for it might not be measured.

bbe@Genesis:41:50 @And before the time of need, Joseph had two sons, to whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, priest of On, gave birth.

bbe@Genesis:41:51 @And to the first he gave the name Manasseh, for he said, God has taken away from me all memory of my hard life and of my father's house.

bbe@Genesis:41:54 @Then came the first of the seven years of need as Joseph had said: and in every other land they were short of food; but in the land of Egypt there was bread.

bbe@Genesis:41:56 @And everywhere on the earth they were short of food; then Joseph, opening all his store-houses, gave the people of Egypt grain for money; so great was the need of food in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:42:1 @Now Jacob, hearing that there was grain in Egypt, said to his sons, Why are you looking at one another?

bbe@Genesis:42:2 @And he said, I have had news that there is grain in Egypt: go down there and get grain for us, so that life and not death may be ours.

bbe@Genesis:42:3 @So Joseph's ten brothers went down to get grain from Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:42:4 @But Jacob did not send Benjamin, Joseph's brother, with them, for fear, as he said, that some evil might come to him.

bbe@Genesis:42:5 @And the sons of Israel came with all the others to get grain: for they were very short of food in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:42:6 @Now Joseph was ruler over all the land, and it was he who gave out the grain to all the people of the land; and Joseph's brothers came before him and went down on their faces to the earth.

bbe@Genesis:42:7 @And when Joseph saw his brothers, it was clear to him who they were, but he made himself strange to them, and talking roughly to them, said, Where do you come from? And they said, From the land of Canaan, to get food.

bbe@Genesis:42:8 @Now though Joseph saw that these were his brothers, they had no idea who he was.

bbe@Genesis:42:13 @Then they said, We your servants are twelve brothers, sons of one man in the land of Canaan; the youngest of us is now with our father, and one is dead.

bbe@Genesis:42:15 @But in this way will you be put to the test: by the life of Pharaoh, you will not go away from this place till your youngest brother comes here.

bbe@Genesis:42:16 @Send one of your number to get your brother, and the rest of you will be kept in prison, so that your words may be tested to see if you are true; if not, by the life of Pharaoh, your purpose is certainly secret.

bbe@Genesis:42:20 @And come back to me with your youngest brother, so that your words may be seen to be true, and you will not be put to death. This is what you are to do.

bbe@Genesis:42:21 @And they said to one another, Truly, we did wrong to our brother, for we saw his grief of mind, and we did not give ear to his prayers; that is why this trouble has come on us.

bbe@Genesis:42:28 @And he said to his brothers, My money has been given back: it is in my bag; then their hearts became full of fear, and turning to one another they said, What is this which God has done to us?

bbe@Genesis:42:29 @So when they came to Jacob their father, in the land of Canaan, they gave him an account of all their experiences, saying,

bbe@Genesis:42:32 @We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is dead, and the youngest is now with our father in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:42:33 @And the ruler of the land said, In this way I may be certain that you are true men; let one of you be kept here with me, while you go and take grain for the needs of your families;

bbe@Genesis:42:34 @And come back to me with your youngest brother: then I will be certain that you are true men, and I will give your brother back to you and let you do trade in the land.

bbe@Genesis:42:35 @And when they took the grain out of their bags, it was seen that every man's parcel of money was in his bag; and when they and their father saw the money, they were full of fear.

bbe@Genesis:42:36 @And Jacob their father said to them, You have taken my children from me: Joseph is gone and Simeon is gone, and now you would take Benjamin away; all these things have come on me.

bbe@Genesis:42:38 @And he said, I will not let my son go down with you; for his brother is dead and he is all I have: if evil overtakes him on the journey, then through you will my grey head go down to the underworld in sorrow.

bbe@Genesis:43:2 @And when the grain which they had got in Egypt was all used up, their father said to them, Go again and get us a little food.

bbe@Genesis:43:3 @And Judah said to him, The man said to us with an oath, You are not to come before me again without your brother.

bbe@Genesis:43:4 @If you will let our brother go with us, we will go down and get food:

bbe@Genesis:43:5 @But if you will not send him, we will not go down: for the man said to us, You are not to come before me if your brother is not with you.

bbe@Genesis:43:6 @And Israel said, Why were you so cruel to me as to say to him that you had a brother?

bbe@Genesis:43:7 @And they said, The man put a number of questions to us about ourselves and our family, saying, Is your father still living? have you another brother? And we had to give him answers; how were we to have any idea that he would say, Come back with your brother?

bbe@Genesis:43:8 @Then Judah said to Israel, his father, Send the boy with me, and let us be up and going, so that we and you and our little ones may not come to destruction.

bbe@Genesis:43:11 @Then their father Israel said to them, If it has to be so, then do this: take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels to give the man, perfumes and honey and spices and nuts:

bbe@Genesis:43:13 @And take your brother and go back to the man:

bbe@Genesis:43:14 @And may God, the Ruler of all, give you mercy before the man, so that he may give you back your other brother and Benjamin. If my children are to be taken from me; there is no help for it.

bbe@Genesis:43:15 @So they took what their father said for the man, and twice as much money in their hands, and Benjamin, and went on their journey to Egypt, and came before Joseph.

bbe@Genesis:43:23 @Then the servant said, Peace be with you: have no fear: your God, even the God of your father, has put wealth in your bags for you: I had your money. Then he let Simeon come out to them.

bbe@Genesis:43:25 @And they got ready the things for Joseph before he came in the middle of the day: for word was given to them that they were to have a meal there.

bbe@Genesis:43:27 @And he said, How are you? is your father well, the old man of whom you were talking to me? is he still living?

bbe@Genesis:43:28 @And they said, Your servant, our father, is well, he is still living. And they went down on their faces before him.

bbe@Genesis:43:29 @Then, lifting up his eyes, he saw Benjamin, his brother, his mother's son, and he said, Is this your youngest brother of whom you gave me word? And he said, God be good to you, my son.

bbe@Genesis:43:30 @Then Joseph's heart went out to his brother, and he went quickly into his room, for he was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:43:33 @And they were all given their seats before him in order of birth, from the oldest to the youngest: so that they were looking at one another in wonder.

bbe@Genesis:43:34 @And Joseph sent food to them from his table, but he sent five times as much to Benjamin as to any of the others. And they took wine freely with him.

bbe@Genesis:44:14 @So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house; and he was still there: and they went down on their faces before him.

bbe@Genesis:44:17 @Then he said, Far be it from me to do so: but the man who had my cup will be my servant; and you may go back to your father in peace.

bbe@Genesis:44:19 @My lord said to his servants, Have you a father or a brother?

bbe@Genesis:44:20 @And we said to my lord, We have an old father and a young child, whom he had when he was old; his brother is dead and he is the only son of his mother, and is very dear to his father.

bbe@Genesis:44:22 @And we said to my lord, His father will not let him go; for if he went away his father would come to his death.

bbe@Genesis:44:23 @But you said to your servants, If your youngest brother does not come with you, you will not see my face again.

bbe@Genesis:44:24 @And when we went back to your servant, our father, we gave him an account of my lord's words.

bbe@Genesis:44:25 @And our father said, Go again and get us a little food.

bbe@Genesis:44:26 @And we said, Only if our youngest brother goes with us will we go down; for we may not see the man's face again if our youngest brother is not with us.

bbe@Genesis:44:27 @And our father said to us, You have knowledge that my wife gave me two sons;

bbe@Genesis:44:30 @If then I go back to your servant, my father, without the boy, because his life and the boy's life are one,

bbe@Genesis:44:31 @When he sees that the boy is not with us, he will come to his death, and our father's grey head will go down in sorrow to the underworld.

bbe@Genesis:44:32 @For I made myself responsible for the boy to my father, saying, If I do not give him safely back to you, let mine be the sin for ever.

bbe@Genesis:44:33 @So now let me be my lord's servant here in place of the boy, and let him go back with his brothers.

bbe@Genesis:44:34 @For how may I go back to my father without the boy, and see the evil which will come on my father?

bbe@Genesis:45:1 @Then Joseph, unable to keep back his feelings before those who were with him, gave orders for everyone to be sent away, and no one was present when he made clear to his brothers who he was.

bbe@Genesis:45:3 @And Joseph said to his brothers, I am Joseph: is my father still living? But his brothers were not able to give him an answer for they were troubled before him.

bbe@Genesis:45:4 @Then Joseph said to his brothers, Come near to me. And they came near, And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom you sent into Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:45:6 @For these two years have been years of need, and there are still five more years to come in which there will be no ploughing or cutting of grain.

bbe@Genesis:45:8 @So now it was not you who sent me here, but God: and he has made me as a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:45:9 @Now go quickly to my father, and say to him, Your son Joseph says, God has made me ruler over all the land of Egypt: come down to me straight away:

bbe@Genesis:45:10 @The land of Goshen will be your living-place, and you will be near me; you and your children and your children's children, and your flocks and herds and all you have:

bbe@Genesis:45:11 @And there I will take care of you, so that you and your family may not be in need, for there are still five bad years to come.

bbe@Genesis:45:12 @Now truly, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see, that it is my mouth which says these things to you.

bbe@Genesis:45:13 @Give my father word of all my glory in Egypt and of all you have seen; and come back quickly with my father.

bbe@Genesis:45:15 @Then he gave a kiss to all his brothers, weeping over them; and after that his brothers had no fear of talking to him.

bbe@Genesis:45:16 @And news of these things went through Pharaoh's house, and it was said that Joseph's brothers were come; and it seemed good to Pharaoh and his servants.

bbe@Genesis:45:17 @And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to your brothers, Put your goods on your beasts and go back to the land of Canaan;

bbe@Genesis:45:18 @And get your father and your families and come back to me: and I will give you all the good things of Egypt, and the fat of the land will be your food.

bbe@Genesis:45:19 @And say to them, This you are to do: take carts from the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives, and get your father and come back.

bbe@Genesis:45:23 @And to his father he sent ten asses with good things from Egypt on their backs, and ten she-asses with grain and bread and food for his father on the journey.

bbe@Genesis:45:24 @And he sent his brothers on their way, and said to them, See that you have no argument on the road.

bbe@Genesis:45:25 @So they went up from Egypt and came to the land of Canaan, to their father Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:46:1 @And Israel went on his journey with all he had, and came to Beer-sheba, where he made offerings to the God of his father Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:46:2 @And God said to Israel in a night-vision, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.

bbe@Genesis:46:3 @And he said, I am God, the God of your father: go down to Egypt without fear, for I will make a great nation of you there:

bbe@Genesis:46:5 @Then Jacob went on from Beer-sheba; and the sons of Jacob took their father and their little ones and their wives in the carts which Pharaoh had sent for them.

bbe@Genesis:46:15 @All these, together with his daughter Dinah, were the children of Leah, whom Jacob had by her in Paddan-aram; they were thirty-three in number.

bbe@Genesis:46:17 @And the sons of Asher: Jimnah and Ishvah and Ishvi and Beriah, and Sarah, their sister; and the sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel.

bbe@Genesis:46:18 @These are the children of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to his daughter Leah, and Jacob had these sixteen children by her.

bbe@Genesis:46:20 @And Joseph had Manasseh and Ephraim in the land of Egypt, by Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, priest of On.

bbe@Genesis:46:21 @And the sons of Benjamin were Belah and Becher and Ashbel, Gera and Naaman, Ehi and Rosh, Muppim and Huppim and Ard.

bbe@Genesis:46:22 @All these were the children of Rachel whom Jacob had by her, fourteen persons.

bbe@Genesis:46:29 @And Joseph got his carriage ready and went to Goshen for the meeting with his father; and when he came before him, he put his arms round his neck, weeping.

bbe@Genesis:46:31 @And Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's people, I will go and give the news to Pharaoh, and say to him, My brothers and my father's people, from the land of Canaan, have come to me;

bbe@Genesis:46:32 @And these men are keepers of sheep and owners of cattle, and have with them their flocks and their herds and all they have.

bbe@Genesis:46:34 @You are to say, Your servants have been keepers of cattle from our early days up to now, like our fathers; in this way you will be able to have the land of Goshen for yourselves; because keepers of sheep are unclean in the eyes of the Egyptians.

bbe@Genesis:47:1 @Then Joseph went to Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brothers with their flocks and their herds and all they have, are come from Canaan, and are now in the land of Goshen.

bbe@Genesis:47:2 @And he took five of his brothers to Pharaoh.

bbe@Genesis:47:3 @And Pharaoh said to them, What is your business? And they said, Your servants are keepers of sheep, as our fathers were before us.

bbe@Genesis:47:5 @And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Let them have the land of Goshen; and if there are any able men among them, put them over my cattle.

bbe@Genesis:47:6 @And Jacob and his sons came to Joseph in Egypt, and when word of it came to the ears of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, he said to Joseph, Your father and brothers have come to you; all the land of Egypt is before you; let your father and your brothers have the best of the land for their resting-place.

bbe@Genesis:47:7 @Then Joseph made his father Jacob come before Pharaoh, and Jacob gave him his blessing.

bbe@Genesis:47:9 @And Jacob said, The years of my wanderings have been a hundred and thirty; small in number and full of sorrow have been the years of my life, and less than the years of the wanderings of my fathers.

bbe@Genesis:47:11 @And Joseph made a place for his father and his brothers, and gave them a heritage in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had given orders.

bbe@Genesis:47:12 @And Joseph took care of his father and his brothers and all his father's people, giving them food for the needs of their families.

bbe@Genesis:47:13 @Now there was no food to be had in all the land, so that all Egypt and Canaan were wasted from need of food.

bbe@Genesis:47:17 @So they took their cattle to Joseph and he gave them bread in exchange for their horses and flocks and herds and asses, so all that year he gave them food in exchange for their cattle.

bbe@Genesis:47:18 @And when that year was ended, they came to him in the second year, and said, We may not keep it from our lord's knowledge that all our money is gone, and all the herds of cattle are my lord's; there is nothing more to give my lord but our bodies and our land;

bbe@Genesis:47:21 @And as for the people, he made servants of them, town by town, from one end of Egypt to the other.

bbe@Genesis:47:23 @Then Joseph said to the people, I have made you and your land this day the property of Pharaoh; here is seed for you to put in your fields.

bbe@Genesis:47:27 @And so Israel was living among the Egyptians in the land of Goshen; and they got property there, and became very great in numbers and in wealth.

bbe@Genesis:47:30 @But when I go to my fathers, you are to take me out of Egypt and put me to rest in their last resting-place. And he said, I will do so.

bbe@Genesis:48:1 @Now after these things, word came to Joseph that his father was ill: and he took with him his sons Manasseh and Ephraim.

bbe@Genesis:48:2 @And when they said to Jacob, Your son Joseph is coming to see you: then Israel, getting all his strength together, had himself lifted up in his bed.

bbe@Genesis:48:4 @And said to me, Truly, I will make you fertile and give you increase and will make of you a great family of nations: and I will give this land to your seed after you to be their heritage for ever.

bbe@Genesis:48:5 @And now your two sons who came to birth in Egypt before I came to you here, are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh will be mine, in the same way as Reuben and Simeon are.

bbe@Genesis:48:6 @And any other offspring which you have after them, will be yours, and will be named after their brothers in their heritage.

bbe@Genesis:48:7 @And as for me, when I came from Paddan, death overtook Rachel on the way, when we were still some distance from Ephrath; and I put her to rest there on the road to Ephrath, which is Beth-lehem.

bbe@Genesis:48:9 @And Joseph said to his father, They are my sons, whom God has given me in this land. And he said, Let them come near me, and I will give them a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:48:15 @And he gave Joseph a blessing, saying, May the God to whom my fathers, Abraham and Isaac, gave worship, the God who has taken care of me all my life till this day,

bbe@Genesis:48:16 @The angel who has been my saviour from all evil, send his blessing on these children: and let my name and the name of my fathers, Abraham and Isaac, be given to them; and let them become a great nation in the earth.

bbe@Genesis:48:17 @Now when Joseph saw that his father had put his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it did not seem right to him; and lifting his father's hand he would have put it on the head of Manasseh.

bbe@Genesis:48:18 @And Joseph said to his father, Not so, my father, for this is the older; put your right hand on his head.

bbe@Genesis:48:19 @But his father would not, saying, I am doing it on purpose, my son; he will certainly become a nation and a great one; but his younger brother will be greater than he, and his seed will become a great family of nations.

bbe@Genesis:48:21 @Then Israel said to Joseph, Now my death is near; but God will be with you, guiding you back to the land of your fathers.

bbe@Genesis:48:22 @And I have given you more than your brothers, even Shechem as your heritage, which I took from the Amorites with my sword and my bow.

bbe@Genesis:49:1 @And Jacob sent for his sons, and said, Come together, all of you, so that I may give you news of your fate in future times.

bbe@Genesis:49:2 @Come near, O sons of Jacob, and give ear to the words of Israel your father.

bbe@Genesis:49:4 @But because you were uncontrolled, the first place will not be yours; for you went up to your father's bed, even his bride-bed, and made it unclean.

bbe@Genesis:49:5 @Simeon and Levi are brothers; deceit and force are their secret designs.

bbe@Genesis:49:7 @A curse on their passion for it was bitter; and on their wrath for it was cruel. I will let their heritage in Jacob be broken up, driving them from their places in Israel.

bbe@Genesis:49:8 @To you, Judah, will your brothers give praise: your hand will be on the neck of your haters; your father's sons will go down to the earth before you.

bbe@Genesis:49:20 @Asher's bread is fat; he gives delicate food for kings.

bbe@Genesis:49:23 @He was troubled by the archers; they sent out their arrows against him, cruelly wounding him:

bbe@Genesis:49:25 @Even by the God of your father, who will be your help, and by the Ruler of all, who will make you full with blessings from heaven on high, blessings of the deep stretched out under the earth, blessings of the breasts and of the fertile body:

bbe@Genesis:49:26 @Blessings of sons, old and young, to the father: blessings of the oldest mountains and the fruit of the eternal hills: let them come on the head of Joseph, on the crown of him who was separate from his brothers.

bbe@Genesis:49:28 @These are the twelve tribes of Israel: and these are the words their father said to them, blessing them; to every one he gave his blessing.

bbe@Genesis:49:29 @And he gave orders to them, saying, Put me to rest with my people and with my fathers, in the hollow of the rock in the field of Ephron the Hittite,

bbe@Genesis:49:31 @There Abraham and Sarah his wife were put to rest, and there they put Isaac and Rebekah his wife, and there I put Leah to rest.

bbe@Genesis:50:1 @And Joseph put his head down on his father's face, weeping and kissing him.

bbe@Genesis:50:2 @And Joseph gave orders to his servants who had the necessary knowledge, to make his father's body ready, folding it in linen with spices, and they did so.

bbe@Genesis:50:3 @And the forty days needed for making the body ready went by: and there was weeping for him among the Egyptians for seventy days.

bbe@Genesis:50:5 @My father made me take an oath, saying, When I am dead, put me to rest in the place I have made ready for myself in the land of Canaan. So now let me go and put my father in his last resting-place, and I will come back again.

bbe@Genesis:50:6 @And Pharaoh said, Go up and put your father to rest, as you gave your oath to him.

bbe@Genesis:50:7 @So Joseph went up to put his father in his last resting-place; and with him went all the servants of Pharaoh, and the chief men of his house and all the chiefs of the land of Egypt,

bbe@Genesis:50:8 @And all the family of Joseph, and his brothers and his father's people: only their little ones and their flocks and herds they did not take with them from the land of Goshen.

bbe@Genesis:50:10 @And they came to the grain-floor of Atad on the other side of Jordan, and there they gave the last honours to Jacob, with great and bitter sorrow, weeping for their father for seven days.

bbe@Genesis:50:11 @And when the people of the land, the people of Canaan, at the grain-floor of Atad, saw their grief, they said, Great is the grief of the Egyptians: so the place was named Abel-mizraim, on the other side of Jordan.

bbe@Genesis:50:14 @And when his father had been put to rest, Joseph and his brothers and all who had gone with him, went back to Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:50:15 @Now after the death of their father, Joseph's brothers said to themselves, It may be that Joseph's heart will be turned against us, and he will give us punishment for all the evil which we did to him.

bbe@Genesis:50:16 @So they sent word to Joseph, saying, Your father, before his death, gave us orders, saying,

bbe@Genesis:50:17 @You are to say to Joseph, Let the wrongdoing of your brothers be overlooked, and the evil they did to you: now, if it is your pleasure, let the sin of the servants of your father's God have forgiveness. And at these words, Joseph was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:50:18 @Then his brothers went, and falling at his feet, said, Truly, we are your servants.

bbe@Genesis:50:22 @Now Joseph and all his father's family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph's life were a hundred and ten.

bbe@Genesis:50:24 @Then Joseph said to his brothers, The time of my death has come; but God will keep you in mind and take you out of this land into the land which he gave by his oath to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:50:25 @Then Joseph made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly give effect to his word, and you are to take my bones away from here.

bbe@Exodus:1:4 @Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.

bbe@Exodus:1:6 @Then Joseph came to his end, and all his brothers, and all that generation.

bbe@Exodus:1:10 @Let us take care for fear that their numbers may become even greater, and if there is a war, they may be joined with those who are against us, and make an attack on us, and go up out of the land.

bbe@Exodus:1:15 @And the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew women who gave help at the time of childbirth (the name of the one was Shiphrah and the name of the other Puah),

bbe@Exodus:1:21 @And because the women who took care of the Hebrew mothers had the fear of God, he gave them families.

bbe@Exodus:2:4 @And his sister took her place at a distance to see what would become of him.

bbe@Exodus:2:5 @Now Pharaoh's daughter came down to the Nile to take a bath, while her women were walking by the riverside; and she saw the basket among the river-plants, and sent her servant-girl to get it.

bbe@Exodus:2:8 @And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the girl went and got the child's mother.

bbe@Exodus:2:9 @And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Take the child away and give it milk for me, and I will give you payment. And the woman took the child and gave it milk at her breast.

bbe@Exodus:2:10 @And when the child was older, she took him to Pharaoh's daughter and he became her son, and she gave him the name Moses, Because, she said, I took him out of the water.

bbe@Exodus:2:13 @And he went out the day after and saw two of the Hebrews fighting: and he said to him who was in the wrong, Why are you fighting your brother?

bbe@Exodus:2:16 @Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came to get water for their father's flock.

bbe@Exodus:2:18 @And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that you have come back so quickly today?

bbe@Exodus:2:20 @And he said to his daughters, Where is he? why have you let the man go? make him come in and give him a meal.

bbe@Exodus:3:1 @Now Moses was looking after the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian: and he took the flock to the back of the waste land and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.

bbe@Exodus:3:4 @And when the Lord saw him turning to one side to see, God said his name out of the tree, crying, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.

bbe@Exodus:3:5 @And he said, Do not come near: take off your shoes from your feet, for the place where you are is holy.

bbe@Exodus:3:6 @And he said, I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses kept his face covered for fear of looking on God.

bbe@Exodus:3:13 @And Moses said to God, When I come to the children of Israel and say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you: and they say to me, What is his name? what am I to say to them?

bbe@Exodus:3:15 @And God went on to say to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and this is my sign to all generations.

bbe@Exodus:3:16 @Go and get together the chiefs of the children of Israel, and say to them, The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has been seen by me, and has said, Truly I have taken up your cause, because of what is done to you in Egypt;

bbe@Exodus:3:22 @For every woman will get from her neighbour and from the woman living in her house, ornaments of silver and gold, and clothing; and you will put them on your sons and your daughters; you will take the best of their goods from the Egyptians.

bbe@Exodus:4:5 @So that they may be certain that the Lord, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has been seen by you.

bbe@Exodus:4:7 @And he said, Put your hand inside your robe again. (And he put his hand into his robe again, and when he took it out he saw that it had become like his other flesh.)

bbe@Exodus:4:14 @And the Lord was angry with Moses, and said, Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? To my knowledge he is good at talking. And now he is coming out to you: and when he sees you he will be glad in his heart.

bbe@Exodus:4:18 @And Moses went back to Jethro, his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go back now to my relations in Egypt and see if they are still living. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.

bbe@Exodus:4:25 @Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cutting off the skin of her son's private parts, and touching his feet with it, she said, Truly you are a husband of blood to me.

bbe@Exodus:4:29 @Then Moses and Aaron went and got together all the chiefs of the children of Israel:

bbe@Exodus:5:11 @Go yourselves and get dry stems wherever you are able; for your work is not to be any less.

bbe@Exodus:5:13 @And the overseers went on driving them and saying, Do your full day's work as before when there were dry stems for you.

bbe@Exodus:6:8 @And I will be your guide into the land which I made an oath to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for your heritage: I am Yahweh.

bbe@Exodus:6:14 @These are the heads of their fathers' families: the sons of Reuben the oldest son of Israel: Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi: these are the families of Reuben

bbe@Exodus:6:20 @And Amram took Jochebed, his father's sister, as wife; and she gave birth to Aaron and Moses: and the years of Amram's life were a hundred and thirty-seven.

bbe@Exodus:7:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, See I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet.

bbe@Exodus:7:2 @Say whatever I give you orders to say: and Aaron your brother will give word to Pharaoh to let the children of Israel go out of his land.

bbe@Exodus:7:19 @And the Lord said, Say to Aaron, Let the rod in your hand be stretched out over the waters of Egypt, and over the rivers and the streams and the pools, and over every stretch of water, so that they may be turned to blood; and there will be blood through all the land of Egypt, in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.

bbe@Exodus:7:21 @And the fish in the Nile came to destruction, and a bad smell went up from the river, and the Egyptians were not able to make use of the water of the Nile for drinking; and there was blood through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:8:10 @And he said, By tomorrow. And he said, Let it be as you say: so that you may see that there is no other like the Lord our God.

bbe@Exodus:8:13 @And the Lord did as Moses said; and there was an end of all the frogs in the houses and in the open spaces and in the fields.

bbe@Exodus:8:14 @And they put them together in masses, and a bad smell went up from the land.

bbe@Exodus:8:15 @But when Pharaoh saw that there was peace for a time, he made his heart hard and did not give ear to them, as the Lord had said.

bbe@Exodus:8:18 @And the wonder-workers with their secret arts, attempting to make insects, were unable to do so: and there were insects on man and on beast

bbe@Exodus:8:21 @For if you do not let my people go, see, I will send clouds of flies on you and on your servants and on your people and into their houses; and the houses of the Egyptians and the land where they are will be full of flies.

bbe@Exodus:8:22 @And at that time I will make a division between your land and the land of Goshen where my people are, and no flies will be there; so that you may see that I am the Lord over all the earth.

bbe@Exodus:8:25 @And Pharaoh sent for Moses and Aaron and said, Go and make your offering to your God here in the land.

bbe@Exodus:9:3 @Then the hand of the Lord will put on your cattle in the field, on the horses and the asses and the camels, on the herds and the flocks, a very evil disease.

bbe@Exodus:9:4 @And the Lord will make a division between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt; there will be no loss of any of the cattle of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:9:6 @And on the day after, the Lord did as he had said, causing the death of all the cattle of Egypt, but there was no loss of any of the cattle of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:9:7 @And Pharaoh sent and got word that there was no loss of any of the cattle of Israel. But the heart of Pharaoh was hard and he did not let the people go.

bbe@Exodus:9:14 @For this time I will send all my punishments on yourself and on your servants and on your people; so that you may see that there is no other like me in all the earth.

bbe@Exodus:9:22 @And the Lord said to Moses, Now let your hand be stretched out to heaven so that there may be an ice-storm on all the land of Egypt, on man and on beast and on every plant of the field through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:9:24 @So there was an ice-storm with fire running through it, coming down with great force, such as never was in all the land of Egypt from the time when it became a nation.

bbe@Exodus:9:26 @Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no ice-storm.

bbe@Exodus:9:28 @Make prayer to the Lord; for there has been enough of these thunderings of God and this ice-storm; and I will let you go and will keep you no longer.

bbe@Exodus:10:6 @And your houses will be full of them, and the houses of your servants and of all the Egyptians; it will be worse than anything your fathers have seen or their fathers, from the day when they were living on the earth till this day. And so he went out from Pharaoh.

bbe@Exodus:10:9 @And Moses said, We will go with our young and our old, with our sons and our daughters, with our flocks and our herds; for we are to keep a feast to the Lord

bbe@Exodus:10:23 @They were not able to see one another, and no one got up from his place for three days: but where the children of Israel were living it was light.

bbe@Exodus:10:24 @Then Pharaoh sent for Moses, and said, Go and give worship to the Lord; only let your flocks and your herds be kept here: your little ones may go with you.

bbe@Exodus:11:2 @So go now and give orders to the people that every man and every woman is to get from his or her neighbour ornaments of silver and of gold.

bbe@Exodus:11:5 @And death will come to every mother's first male child in all the land of Egypt, from the child of Pharaoh on his seat of power, to the child of the servant-girl crushing the grain; and the first births of all the cattle.

bbe@Exodus:11:6 @And there will be a great cry through all the land of Egypt, such as never has been or will be again.

bbe@Exodus:12:3 @Say to all the children of Israel when they are come together, In the tenth day of this month every man is to take a lamb, by the number of their fathers' families, a lamb for every family:

bbe@Exodus:12:7 @Then take some of the blood and put it on the two sides of the door and over the door of the house where the meal is to be taken.

bbe@Exodus:12:8 @And let your food that night be the flesh of the lamb, cooked with fire in the oven, together with unleavened bread and bitter-tasting plants.

bbe@Exodus:12:13 @And the blood will be a sign on the houses where you are: when I see the blood I will go over you, and no evil will come on you for your destruction, when my hand is on the land of Egypt

bbe@Exodus:12:16 @And on the first day there is to be a holy meeting and on the seventh day a holy meeting; no sort of work may be done on those days but only to make ready what is necessary for everyone's food.

bbe@Exodus:12:19 @For seven days no leaven is to be seen in your houses: for whoever takes bread which is leavened will be cut off from the people of Israel, if he is from another country or if he is an Israelite by birth.

bbe@Exodus:12:20 @Take nothing which has leaven in it; wherever you are living let your food be unleavened cakes.

bbe@Exodus:12:30 @Then Pharaoh got up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians; and a great cry went up from Egypt; for there was not a house where someone was not dead.

bbe@Exodus:12:32 @And take your flocks and your herds as you have said, and be gone; and give me your blessing.

bbe@Exodus:12:37 @And the children of Israel made the journey from Rameses to Succoth; there were about six hundred thousand men on foot, as well as children.

bbe@Exodus:12:38 @And a mixed band of people went with them; and flocks and herds in great numbers.

bbe@Exodus:12:48 @And if a man from another country is living with you, and has a desire to keep the Passover to the Lord, let all the males of his family undergo circumcision, and then let him come near and keep it; for he will then be as one of your people; but no one without circumcision may keep it.

bbe@Exodus:13:2 @Let the first male child of every mother among the children of Israel be kept holy for me, even the first male birth among man or beast; for it is mine.

bbe@Exodus:13:5 @And it will be that, when the Lord takes you into the land of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, the land which he made an oath to your fathers that he would give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, you will do this act of worship in this month.

bbe@Exodus:13:6 @For seven days let your food be unleavened cakes; and on the seventh day there is to be a feast to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:13:11 @And when the Lord takes you into the land of Canaan, as he made his oath to you and to your fathers, and gives it to you,

bbe@Exodus:13:12 @You are to put on one side for the Lord every mother's first male child, the first-fruit of her body, and the first young one of every beast; every male is holy to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:14:11 @And they said to Moses, Was there no resting-place for the dead in Egypt, that you have taken us away to come to our death in the waste land? why have you taken us out of Egypt?

bbe@Exodus:14:13 @But Moses said, Keep where you are and have no fear; now you will see the salvation of the Lord which he will give you today; for the Egyptians whom you see today you will never see again.

bbe@Exodus:14:20 @And it came between the army of Egypt and the army of Israel; and there was a dark cloud between them, and they went on through the night; but the one army came no nearer to the other all the night.

bbe@Exodus:15:2 @The Lord is my strength and my strong helper, he has become my salvation: he is my God and I will give him praise; my father's God and I will give him glory.

bbe@Exodus:15:8 @By your breath the waves were massed together, the flowing waters were lifted up like a pillar; the deep waters became solid in the heart of the sea.

bbe@Exodus:15:17 @You will take them in, planting them in the mountain of your heritage, the place, O Lord, where you have made your house, the holy place, O Lord, the building of your hands.

bbe@Exodus:15:20 @And Miriam, the woman prophet, the sister of Aaron, took an instrument of music in her hand; and all the women went after her with music and dances.

bbe@Exodus:15:22 @Then Moses took Israel forward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the waste land of Shur; and for three days they were in the waste land where there was no water.

bbe@Exodus:15:25 @And in answer to his prayer, the Lord made him see a tree, and when he put it into the water, the water was made sweet. There he gave them a law and an order, testing them;

bbe@Exodus:15:27 @And they came to Elim where there were twelve water-springs and seventy palm-trees: and they put up their tents there by the waters.

bbe@Exodus:16:3 @And the children of Israel said to them, It would have been better for the Lord to have put us to death in the land of Egypt, where we were seated by the flesh-pots and had bread enough for our needs; for you have taken us out to this waste of sand, to put all this people to death through need of food.

bbe@Exodus:16:5 @And on the sixth day they are to make ready what they get in, and it will be twice as much as they get on the other days.

bbe@Exodus:16:13 @And it came about that in the evening little birds came up and the place was covered with them: and in the morning there was dew all round about the tents.

bbe@Exodus:16:15 @And when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, What is it? for they had no idea what it was. And Moses said to them, It is the bread which the Lord has given you for your food.

bbe@Exodus:16:20 @But they gave no attention to Moses, and some of them kept it till the morning and there were worms in it and it had an evil smell: and Moses was angry with them.

bbe@Exodus:16:26 @For six days you will get it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will not be any.

bbe@Exodus:16:27 @But still on the seventh day some of the people went out to get it, and there was not any.

bbe@Exodus:16:29 @See, because the Lord has given you the Sabbath, he gives you on the sixth day bread enough for two days; let every man keep where he is; let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.

bbe@Exodus:17:1 @And the children of Israel went on from the waste land of Sin, by stages as the Lord gave them orders, and put up their tents in Rephidim: and there was no drinking-water for the people.

bbe@Exodus:17:9 @And Moses said to Joshua, Get together a band of men for us and go out, make war on Amalek: tomorrow I will take my place on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.

bbe@Exodus:17:12 @But Moses' hands became tired; so they put a stone under him and he took his seat on it, Aaron and Hur supporting his hands, one on one side and one on the other; so his hands were kept up without falling till the sun went down.

bbe@Exodus:17:16 @For he said, The Lord has taken his oath that there will be war with Amalek from generation to generation.

bbe@Exodus:18:1 @Now news came to Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father-in-law, of all God had done for Moses and for Israel his people, and how the Lord had taken Israel out of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:18:2 @And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent her away,

bbe@Exodus:18:3 @And her two sons, one of whom was named Gershom, for he said, I have been living in a strange land:

bbe@Exodus:18:4 @And the name of the other was Eliezer, for he said, The God of my father was my help, and kept me safe from the sword of Pharaoh:

bbe@Exodus:18:5 @And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to where Moses had put up his tent in the waste land, by the mountain of God.

bbe@Exodus:18:6 @And he said to Moses, I, your father-in-law, have come to you, with your wife and your two sons.

bbe@Exodus:18:7 @And Moses went out to his father-in-law, and went down on his face before him and gave him a kiss; and they said to one another, Are you well? and they came into the tent.

bbe@Exodus:18:8 @And Moses gave his father-in-law an account of all the Lord had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians because of Israel, and of all the troubles which had come on them by the way, and how the Lord had given them salvation.

bbe@Exodus:18:12 @Then Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, made a burned offering to God: and Aaron came, with the chiefs of Israel, and had a meal with Moses' father-in-law, before God.

bbe@Exodus:18:14 @And when Moses' father-in-law saw all he was doing, he said, What is this you are doing for the people? why are you seated here by yourself, with all the people waiting before you from morning till evening?

bbe@Exodus:18:15 @And Moses said to his father-in-law, Because the people come to me to get directions from God:

bbe@Exodus:18:17 @And Moses' father-in-law said to him, What you are doing is not good.

bbe@Exodus:18:24 @So Moses took note of the words of his father-in-law, and did as he had said.

bbe@Exodus:18:27 @And Moses let his father-in-law go away, and he went back to his land.

bbe@Exodus:19:2 @And when they had gone away from Rephidim and had come into the waste land of Sinai, they put up their tents in the waste land before the mountain: there Israel put up its tents.

bbe@Exodus:19:8 @And all the people, answering together, said, Whatever the Lord has said we will do. And Moses took back to the Lord the words of the people.

bbe@Exodus:19:16 @And when morning came on the third day, there were thunders and flames and a thick cloud on the mountain, and a horn sounding very loud; and all the people in the tents were shaking with fear.

bbe@Exodus:20:3 @You are to have no other gods but me.

bbe@Exodus:20:5 @You may not go down on your faces before them or give them worship: for I, the Lord your God, am a God who will not give his honour to another; and I will send punishment on the children for the wrongdoing of their fathers, to the third and fourth generation of my haters;

bbe@Exodus:20:12 @Give honour to your father and to your mother, so that your life may be long in the land which the Lord your God is giving you

bbe@Exodus:20:15 @Do not take the property of another.

bbe@Exodus:20:21 @And the people kept their places far off, but Moses went near to the dark cloud where God was.

bbe@Exodus:20:24 @Make for me an altar of earth, offering on it your burned offerings and your peace-offerings, your sheep and your oxen: in every place where I have put the memory of my name, I will come to you and give you my blessing.

bbe@Exodus:21:4 @If his master gives him a wife, and he gets sons or daughters by her, the wife and her children will be the property of the master, and the servant is to go away by himself.

bbe@Exodus:21:8 @If she is not pleasing to her master who has taken her for himself, let a payment be made for her so that she may go free; her master has no power to get a price for her and send her to a strange land, because he has been false to her.

bbe@Exodus:21:9 @And if he gives her to his son, he is to do everything for her as if she was his daughter.

bbe@Exodus:21:10 @And if he takes another woman, her food and clothing and her married rights are not to be less.

bbe@Exodus:21:11 @And if he does not do these three things for her, she has the right to go free without payment.

bbe@Exodus:21:15 @Any man who gives a blow to his father or his mother is certainly to be put to death.

bbe@Exodus:21:16 @Any man who gets another into his power in order to get a price for him is to be put to death, if you take him in the act.

bbe@Exodus:21:17 @Any man cursing his father or his mother is to be put to death.

bbe@Exodus:21:18 @If, in a fight, one man gives another a blow with a stone, or with the shut hand, not causing his death, but making him keep in bed;

bbe@Exodus:21:19 @If he is able to get up again and go about with a stick, the other will be let off; only he will have to give him payment for the loss of his time, and see that he is cared for till he is well.

bbe@Exodus:21:22 @If men, while fighting, do damage to a woman with child, causing the loss of the child, but no other evil comes to her, the man will have to make payment up to the amount fixed by her husband, in agreement with the decision of the judges.

bbe@Exodus:21:23 @But if damage comes to her, let life be given in payment for life,

bbe@Exodus:21:35 @And if one man's ox does damage to another man's ox, causing its death, then the living ox is to be exchanged for money, and division made of the price of it, and of the price of the dead one.

bbe@Exodus:22:1 @If a man takes without right another man's ox or his sheep, and puts it to death or gets a price for it, he is to give five oxen for an ox, or four sheep for a sheep, in payment: the thief will have to make payment for what he has taken; if he has no money, he himself will have to be exchanged for money, so that payment may be made.

bbe@Exodus:22:5 @If a man makes a fire in a field or a vine-garden, and lets the fire do damage to another man's field, he is to give of the best produce of his field or his vine-garden to make up for it.

bbe@Exodus:22:6 @If there is a fire and the flames get to the thorns at the edge of the field, causing destruction of the cut grain or of the living grain, or of the field, he who made the fire will have to make up for the damage.

bbe@Exodus:22:16 @If a man takes a virgin, who has not given her word to another man, and has connection with her, he will have to give a bride-price for her to be his wife

bbe@Exodus:22:17 @If her father will not give her to him on any account, he will have to give the regular payment for virgins.

bbe@Exodus:22:20 @Complete destruction will come on any man who makes offerings to any other god but the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:22:22 @Do no wrong to a widow, or to a child whose father is dead.

bbe@Exodus:22:24 @And in the heat of my wrath I will put you to death with the sword, so that your wives will be widows and your children without fathers.

bbe@Exodus:22:30 @In the same way with your oxen and your sheep: for seven days let the young one be with its mother; on the eighth day give it to me.

bbe@Exodus:23:1 @Do not let a false statement go further; do not make an agreement with evil-doers to be a false witness.

bbe@Exodus:23:3 @But, on the other hand, do not be turned from what is right in order to give support to a poor man's cause.

bbe@Exodus:23:12 @For six days do your work, and on the seventh day keep the Sabbath; so that your ox and your ass may have rest, together with the son of your servant and the man from a strange land living among you.

bbe@Exodus:23:13 @Take note of all these things which I have said to you, and let not the names of other gods come into your minds or from your lips.

bbe@Exodus:23:19 @The best of the first-fruits of your land are to be taken into the house of the Lord your God. The young goat is not to be cooked in its mother's milk.

bbe@Exodus:23:30 @Little by little I will send them away before you, till your numbers are increased and you take up your heritage in the land.

bbe@Exodus:24:2 @And Moses only may come near to the Lord; but the others are not to come near, and the people may not come up with them.

bbe@Exodus:24:10 @And they saw the God of Israel; and under his feet there was, as it seemed, a jewelled floor, clear as the heavens.

bbe@Exodus:24:12 @And the Lord said to Moses, Come up to me on the mountain, and take your place there: and I will give you the stones on which I have put in writing the law and the orders, so that you may give the people knowledge of them.

bbe@Exodus:24:14 @And he said to the chiefs, Keep your places here till we come back to you: Aaron and Hur are with you; if anyone has any cause let him go to them.

bbe@Exodus:24:18 @And Moses went up the mountain, into the cloud, and was there for forty days and forty nights.

bbe@Exodus:25:5 @And sheepskins coloured red, and leather, and hard wood;

bbe@Exodus:25:12 @And make four rings of gold for it, to be fixed on its four feet, two rings on one side of it and two on the other.

bbe@Exodus:25:19 @One at one end and one at the other; the winged ones are to be part of the cover.

bbe@Exodus:25:20 @And their wings are to be outstretched over the cover, and the winged ones are to be opposite one another, facing the cover.

bbe@Exodus:25:22 @And there, between the two winged ones on the cover of the ark, I will come to you, face to face, and make clear to you all the orders I have to give you for the children of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:25:32 @It is to have six branches coming out from its sides; three branches from one side and three from the other.

bbe@Exodus:25:36 @The buds and the branches are to be made of the same metal; all together one complete work of hammered gold.

bbe@Exodus:26:3 @Five curtains are to be joined together, and the other five are to be joined together.

bbe@Exodus:26:5 @Fifty twists on one curtain and fifty on the other, the twists to be opposite one another.

bbe@Exodus:26:6 @Then make fifty gold hooks, joining the curtains together by the hooks, and in this way the House will be made.

bbe@Exodus:26:9 @Five of these curtains are to be joined together, and the other six are to be joined together, the sixth being folded over to make a hanging in front of the tent.

bbe@Exodus:26:10 @And you are to put fifty twists of cord on the edge of the outside curtain of one group, and fifty twists on the edge of the outside curtain of the other group.

bbe@Exodus:26:11 @Then make fifty brass hooks and put the hooks into the twists, joining the tent together to make it one

bbe@Exodus:26:14 @And then you are to make a cover for the tent, of sheepskins coloured red, and a cover of leather over that.

bbe@Exodus:26:24 @The two are to be joined together at the base and at the top to one ring, forming the two angles.

bbe@Exodus:26:25 @So there are to be eight boards, with their sixteen silver bases, two bases under every board.

bbe@Exodus:26:27 @And five for the boards on the other side of the House, and five for the west side of the House at the back.

bbe@Exodus:27:9 @And let there be an open space round the House, with hangings for its south side of the best linen, a hundred cubits long.

bbe@Exodus:27:15 @And on the other side, hangings fifteen cubits long, with three pillars and three bases.

bbe@Exodus:27:20 @Give orders to the children of Israel to give you clear olive oil for the lights, so that a light may be burning there at all times.

bbe@Exodus:28:1 @Now let Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, come near from among the children of Israel, so that they may be my priests, even Aaron, and Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, his sons.

bbe@Exodus:28:2 @And make holy robes for Aaron your brother, so that he may be clothed with glory and honour.

bbe@Exodus:28:4 @This is what they are to make: a priest's bag, an ephod, and a robe, and a coat of coloured needlework, a head-dress, and a linen band; they are to make holy robes for Aaron your brother and for his sons, so that they may do the work of priests for me.

bbe@Exodus:28:7 @It is to have two bands stitched to it at the top of the arms, joining it together.

bbe@Exodus:28:10 @Six names on the one stone and six on the other, in the order of their birth.

bbe@Exodus:28:25 @Joining the other ends of the chains to the gold frames and putting them on the front of the ephod, at the top of the arms.

bbe@Exodus:28:41 @These you are to put on Aaron, your brother, and on his sons, putting oil on them, separating them and making them holy, to do the work of priests to me.

bbe@Exodus:29:4 @And let Aaron and his sons come to the door of the Tent of meeting, and there let them be washed with water.

bbe@Exodus:29:19 @Then take the other sheep; and after Aaron and his sons have put their hands on its head,

bbe@Exodus:29:39 @One lamb is to be offered in the morning and the other in the evening:

bbe@Exodus:29:41 @And the other lamb is to be offered in the evening, and with it the same meal offering and drink offering, for a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:29:42 @This is to be a regular burned offering made from generation to generation, at the door of the Tent of meeting before the Lord, where I will come face to face with you and have talk with you.

bbe@Exodus:29:43 @There I will come face to face with the children of Israel, and the Tent will be made holy by my glory

bbe@Exodus:30:6 @And let it be placed in front of the veil before the ark of the law, before the cover which is over the law, where I will come face to face with you.

bbe@Exodus:30:32 @It is not to be used for man's flesh, and no other is to be made like it: holy it is, and you are to keep it holy.

bbe@Exodus:30:36 @And put some of it, crushed very small, in front of the ark in the Tent of meeting, where I will come face to face with you; it is to be most holy.

bbe@Exodus:32:5 @And when Aaron saw this, he made an altar before it, and made a public statement, saying, Tomorrow there will be a feast to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:32:13 @Have in mind Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you gave your oath, saying, I will make your seed like the stars of heaven in number, and all this land will I give to your seed, as I said, to be their heritage for ever.

bbe@Exodus:32:17 @Now when the noise and the voices of the people came to the ears of Joshua, he said to Moses, There is a noise of war in the tents.

bbe@Exodus:32:26 @Then Moses took his place at the way into the tents, and said, Whoever is on the Lord's side, let him come to me. And all the sons of Levi came together to him.

bbe@Exodus:32:27 @And he said to them, This is the word of the Lord, the God of Israel: Let every man take his sword at his side, and go from one end of the tents to the other, putting to death his brother and his friend and his neighbour.

bbe@Exodus:32:29 @And Moses said, You have made yourselves priests to the Lord this day; for every one of you has made the offering of his son and his brother; the blessing of the Lord is on you this day.

bbe@Exodus:33:15 @And Moses said, If you yourself are not going with us, do not send us on from here.

bbe@Exodus:33:16 @For is not the fact of your going with us the sign that I and this people have grace in your eyes, so that we, that is, I and your people, are separate from all other people on the face of the earth?

bbe@Exodus:33:21 @And the Lord said, See, there is a place near me, and you may take your place on the rock:

bbe@Exodus:34:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, Make two other stones like the first two; and I will put on them the words which were on the first stones, which were broken by you.

bbe@Exodus:34:2 @And be ready by the morning, and come up on Mount Sinai, and come before me there in the morning, on the top of the mountain.

bbe@Exodus:34:3 @No one is to come up with you, and let no man be seen anywhere on the mountain; let no flocks or herds come near to get their food at its foot.

bbe@Exodus:34:7 @Having mercy on thousands, overlooking evil and wrongdoing and sin; he will not let wrongdoers go free, but will send punishment on children for the sins of their fathers, and on their children's children to the third and fourth generation.

bbe@Exodus:34:9 @And he said, If now I have grace in your eyes, let the Lord go among us, for this is a stiff-necked people, and give us forgiveness for our wrongdoing and our sin, and take us for your heritage.

bbe@Exodus:34:12 @But take care, and do not make any agreement with the people of the land where you are going, for it will be a cause of sin to you.

bbe@Exodus:34:14 @For you are to be worshippers of no other god: for the Lord is a God who will not give his honour to another.

bbe@Exodus:34:26 @Take the first-fruits of your land as an offering to the house of the Lord your God. Let not the young goat be cooked in its mother's milk

bbe@Exodus:34:28 @And for forty days and forty nights Moses was there with the Lord, and in that time he had no food or drink. And he put in writing on the stones the words of the agreement, the ten rules of the law.

bbe@Exodus:35:1 @And Moses sent for all the children of Israel to come together, and said to them, This is what the Lord has said and these are his orders.

bbe@Exodus:35:7 @And sheepskins coloured red, and leather, and hard wood,

bbe@Exodus:35:23 @And everyone who had blue and purple and red and the best linen and goats' hair and sheepskins coloured red and leather, gave them.

bbe@Exodus:35:34 @And he has given to him, and to Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the power of training others.

bbe@Exodus:36:10 @And five curtains were joined together, and the other five curtains were joined together.

bbe@Exodus:36:12 @Fifty twists on the one curtain and fifty on the edge of the curtain of the other group; the twists being opposite to one another.

bbe@Exodus:36:13 @And they made fifty hooks of gold, joining the curtains one to another with the hooks; and so the House was made.

bbe@Exodus:36:16 @Five curtains were joined together to make one group, and six curtains were joined together to make the other group.

bbe@Exodus:36:18 @And fifty hooks of brass for joining them together to make the tent.

bbe@Exodus:36:19 @And they made a cover of sheepskins coloured red, to go over the tent, and a cover of leather over that.

bbe@Exodus:36:29 @These were joined together at the base and at the top to one ring, so forming the two angles.

bbe@Exodus:36:30 @So there were eight boards with sixteen bases of silver, two bases under every board.

bbe@Exodus:36:32 @And five for the boards on the other side of the House, and five for the boards at the back, on the west.

bbe@Exodus:36:33 @The middle rod was made to go right through the rings of all the boards from one end to the other.

bbe@Exodus:37:3 @And he made four gold rings for its four angles, two on one side and two on the other,

bbe@Exodus:37:8 @Placing one at one end and one at the other; the winged ones were part of the cover.

bbe@Exodus:37:9 @And their wings were stretched out over the cover; the faces of the winged ones were opposite one another and facing the cover.

bbe@Exodus:37:18 @It had six branches coming out from its sides, three from one side and three from the other;

bbe@Exodus:37:22 @The buds and the branches were made of the same metal, all together one complete work of the best hammered gold.

bbe@Exodus:38:15 @And the same on the other side of the doorway; on this side and on that the hangings were fifteen cubits long, on three pillars with their three bases.

bbe@Exodus:38:19 @There were four pillars with their bases, all of brass, the hooks being of silver, and their tops and their bands being covered with silver.

bbe@Exodus:38:26 @A beka, that is, half a shekel by the holy scale, for everyone who was numbered; there were six hundred and three thousand, five hundred and fifty men of twenty years old and over.

bbe@Exodus:39:4 @And they made two bands for joining its edges together at the top of the arms.

bbe@Exodus:39:14 @There were twelve stones for the twelve tribes of Israel; on every one the name of one of the tribes of Israel was cut, like the cutting of a stamp.

bbe@Exodus:39:18 @And the other two ends of the chains were joined to the two frames and fixed to the front of the ephod over the arm-holes.

bbe@Exodus:39:20 @And two other gold rings were put on the front of the ephod, over the arm-holes, at the join, and over the worked band.

bbe@Exodus:39:34 @The outer cover of sheepskins coloured red, and the cover of leather, and the veil for the doorway;

bbe@Exodus:40:15 @And put oil on them as you did on their father, so that they may be my priests: the putting on of oil will make them priests for ever, from generation to generation.

bbe@Exodus:40:37 @But while the cloud was there, they made no move till it was taken up.

bbe@Exodus:40:38 @For the cloud of the Lord was resting on the House by day, and at night there was fire in the cloud, before the eyes of all the people of Israel, and so it was through all their journeys.

bbe@Leviticus:1:2 @Give these orders to the children of Israel: When anyone of you makes an offering to the Lord, you are to take it from the cattle, from the herd or from the flock.

bbe@Leviticus:1:3 @If the offering is a burned offering of the herd, let him give a male without a mark: he is to give it at the door of the Tent of meeting so that he may be pleasing to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:1:16 @And he is to take away its stomach, with its feathers, and put it down by the east side of the altar, where the burned waste is put:

bbe@Leviticus:3:1 @And if his offering is given for a peace-offering; if he gives of the herd, male or female, let him give it without any mark on it, before the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:4:12 @All the ox, he is to take away outside the circle of the tents into a clean place where the burned waste is put, and there it is to be burned on wood with fire.

bbe@Leviticus:4:21 @Then let the ox be taken away outside the tent-circle, that it may be burned as the other ox was burned; it is the sin-offering for all the people.

bbe@Leviticus:4:24 @And he is to put his hand on the head of the goat and put it to death in the place where they put to death the burned offering before the Lord: it is a sin-offering.

bbe@Leviticus:4:29 @And he is to put his hand on the head of the sin-offering and put it to death in the place where they put to death the burned offering.

bbe@Leviticus:4:33 @And he is to put his hand on the head of the offering and put it to death for a sin-offering in the place where they put to death the burned offering.

bbe@Leviticus:5:16 @And he is to make payment to the priest for what he has done wrong in relation to the holy thing, together with a fifth part of its value in addition; and the priest will take away his sin by the sheep of his offering, and he will have forgiveness.

bbe@Leviticus:6:11 @Then having taken off his linen robes and put on other clothing, he is to take it away into a clean place, outside the tent-circle.

bbe@Leviticus:6:12 @The fire on the altar is to be kept burning; it is never to go out; every morning the priest is to put wood on it, placing the burned offering in order on it, and there the fat of the peace-offering is to be burned.

bbe@Leviticus:7:7 @As is the sin-offering, so is the offering for wrongdoing; there is one law for them: the priest who makes the offering to take away sin, he is to have it.

bbe@Leviticus:7:24 @And the fat of that which comes to a natural death, and the fat of that which is attacked by beasts, may be used for other purposes, but not in any way for food.

bbe@Leviticus:8:3 @And let all the people come together at the door of the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Leviticus:8:4 @And Moses did as the Lord said, and all the people came together at the door of the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Leviticus:8:22 @And he put the other sheep before the Lord, the sheep with which they were made priests; and Aaron and his sons put their hands on the head of the sheep,

bbe@Leviticus:8:31 @And Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, The flesh is to be cooked in water at the door of the Tent of meeting, and there you are to take it as food, together with the bread in the basket, as I have given orders, saying, It is the food of Aaron and his sons.

bbe@Leviticus:10:4 @And Moses sent for Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel, the brother of Aaron's father, and said to them, Come near and take your brothers away from before the holy place, outside the tent-circle.

bbe@Leviticus:10:6 @And Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons, Do not let your hair be loose, and give no signs of grief; so that death may not overtake you, and his wrath come on all the people; but let there be weeping among your brothers and all the house of Israel for this burning of the Lord's fire.

bbe@Leviticus:11:10 @All other things living and moving in the water, in the sea or in the rivers, are a disgusting thing to you;

bbe@Leviticus:11:19 @The stork and the heron, and birds of that sort, and the hoopoe and the bat.

bbe@Leviticus:11:23 @But all other winged four-footed things which go on the earth are disgusting to you.

bbe@Leviticus:11:26 @Every beast, in the horn of whose foot there is not a complete division, and whose food does not come back, is unclean to you: anyone touching one of these will be unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:11:36 @But at the same time a fountain or a place where water is stored for use will be clean; but anyone touching their dead bodies will be unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:12:4 @And she will be unclean for thirty-three days till the flow of her blood is stopped; no holy thing may be touched by her, and she may not come into the holy place, till the days for making her clean are ended.

bbe@Leviticus:12:6 @And when the days are ended for making her clean for a son or a daughter, let her take to the priest at the door of the Tent of meeting, a lamb of the first year for a burned offering and a young pigeon or a dove for a sin-offering:

bbe@Leviticus:12:7 @And the priest is to make an offering of it before the Lord and take away her sin, and she will be made clean from the flow of her blood. This is the law for a woman who gives birth to a male or a female.

bbe@Leviticus:12:8 @And if she has not money enough for a lamb, then let her take two doves or two young pigeons, one for a burned offering and the other for a sin-offering, and the priest will take away her sin and she will be clean,

bbe@Leviticus:13:10 @And if the priest sees that there is a white growth on the skin, and the hair is turned white, and there is diseased flesh in the growth,

bbe@Leviticus:13:19 @And on the same place there is a white growth of a bright mark, red and white, then let the priest see it;

bbe@Leviticus:13:21 @But if, after looking at it, he sees that there are no white hairs on it, and it is not deeper than the skin, and it is not very bright, then let the priest keep him shut up for seven days:

bbe@Leviticus:13:24 @Or if there is a burn on the skin of the flesh, and if the diseased flesh in the burn becomes a bright place, red and white or white,

bbe@Leviticus:13:26 @But if, after looking at it, the priest sees that there is no white hair on the bright place, and it is not deeper than the skin, and is not very bright, then let the priest keep him shut up for seven days:

bbe@Leviticus:13:30 @Then the priest is to see the diseased place: and if it seems to go deeper than the skin, and if there is thin yellow hair in it, then the priest will say that he is unclean: he has the mark of the leper's disease on his head or in the hair of his chin.

bbe@Leviticus:13:31 @And after looking at the diseased place, if it does not seem to go deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest will have him shut up for seven days:

bbe@Leviticus:13:32 @And on the seventh day the priest will see the place: and if it is not increased, and there is no yellow hair in it, and it does not seem to go deeper than the skin,

bbe@Leviticus:13:41 @And if the hair has gone from the front part of his head, so that he has no hair there, still he is clean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:42 @But if, on his head or on his brow, where he has no hair, there is a red and white place, it is the disease of the leper coming out on his head or on his brow.

bbe@Leviticus:13:43 @Then if the priest sees that the growth of the disease has become red and white on his head or on his brow where there is no hair, like the mark in the skin of a leper;

bbe@Leviticus:13:48 @If it is in the threads of the linen or of the wool, or in leather, or in anything made of skin;

bbe@Leviticus:13:49 @If there are red or green marks on the clothing, or on the leather, or in the threads of the cloth, or in anything made of skin, it is the leper's disease: let the priest see it.

bbe@Leviticus:13:51 @And he is to see the mark on the seventh day; if the mark is increased in the clothing, or in the threads of the material, or in the leather, whatever the leather is used for, it is the disease biting into it: it is unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:52 @And the clothing, or the wool or linen material, or anything of leather in which is the disease, is to be burned: for the disease is biting into it; let it be burned in the fire.

bbe@Leviticus:13:53 @And if the priest sees that the mark is not increased in the clothing or in any part of the material or in the leather,

bbe@Leviticus:13:56 @And if the priest sees that the mark is less bright after the washing, then let him have it cut out of the clothing or the leather or from the threads of the material:

bbe@Leviticus:13:57 @And if the mark is still seen in the clothing or in the threads of the material or in the leather, it is the disease coming out: the thing in which the disease is will have to be burned with fire.

bbe@Leviticus:14:11 @And the priest who is making him clean will put the man who is being made clean, together with these things, before the door of the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Leviticus:14:13 @And he is to put the male lamb to death in the place where they put to death the sin-offering and the burned offering, in the holy place; for as the sin-offering is the property of the priest, so is the offering for wrongdoing: it is most holy.

bbe@Leviticus:14:22 @And two doves or two young pigeons, such as he is able to get; and one will be for a sin-offering and the other for a burned offering.

bbe@Leviticus:14:28 @And the priest will put some of the oil which is in his hand on the point of the ear of the man who is to be made clean and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot, on the place where the blood of the offering for wrongdoing was put;

bbe@Leviticus:14:34 @When you have come into the land of Canaan which I will give you for your heritage, if I put the leper's disease on a house in the land of your heritage,

bbe@Leviticus:14:35 @Then let the owner of the house come and say to the priest, It seems to me that there is a sort of leper's disease in the house.

bbe@Leviticus:14:42 @And they will take other stones and put them in place of those stones, and he will take other paste and put it on the walls of the house.

bbe@Leviticus:15:9 @And any leather seat on a horse on which the unclean man has been seated will be unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:15:19 @And if a woman has a flow of blood from her body, she will have to be kept separate for seven days, and anyone touching her will be unclean till evening

bbe@Leviticus:15:21 @And anyone touching her bed will have to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:24 @And if any man has sex relations with her so that her blood comes on him, he will be unclean for seven days and every bed on which he has been resting will be unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:15:25 @And if a woman has a flow of blood for a long time, not at the time when she generally has it, or if the flow goes on longer than the normal time, she will be unclean while the flow of blood goes on, as she is at other normal times.

bbe@Leviticus:15:28 @But when her flow of blood is stopped, after seven days she will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:15:29 @And on the eighth day let her get two doves or two young pigeons and take them to the priest to the door of the Tent of meeting,

bbe@Leviticus:15:30 @To be offered by the priest, one for a sin-offering and one for a burned offering; and the priest will take away her sin before the Lord on account of her unclean condition.

bbe@Leviticus:15:33 @And for her who has a flow of blood, and for any man or woman who has an unclean flow, and for him who has sex relations with a woman when she is unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:16:2 @The Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, your brother, that he may not come at all times into the holy place inside the veil, before the cover which is on the ark, for fear that death may overtake him; for I will be seen in the cloud on the cover of the ark.

bbe@Leviticus:16:21 @And Aaron, placing his two hands on the head of the living goat, will make a public statement over him of all the evil doings of the children of Israel and all their wrongdoing, in all their sins; and he will put them on the head of the goat and send him away, in the care of a man who will be waiting there, into the waste land

bbe@Leviticus:16:23 @Then let Aaron come into the Tent of meeting and take off the linen clothing which he put on when he went into the holy place, and put them down there;

bbe@Leviticus:16:29 @And let this be an order to you for ever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day, you are to keep yourselves from pleasure and do no sort of work, those who are Israelites by birth and those from other lands who are living among you:

bbe@Leviticus:16:32 @And the man on whose head the holy oil has been put, and who has been marked out to be a priest in his father's place, will do what is necessary to take away sin, and will put on the linen clothing, even the holy robes:

bbe@Leviticus:17:8 @And say to them, If any man of Israel, or any other living among them, makes a burned offering or other offering,

bbe@Leviticus:17:10 @And if any man of Israel, or any other living among them, takes any sort of blood for food, my wrath will be turned against that man and he will be cut off from among his people.

bbe@Leviticus:17:12 @For this reason I have said to the children of Israel, No man among you, or any others living with you, may take blood as food.

bbe@Leviticus:17:13 @And any man of Israel, or any other living among them, who gets with his bow any beast or bird used for food, is to see that its blood is covered with earth.

bbe@Leviticus:17:15 @And anyone who takes as food anything which has come to a natural end, or anything which has been put to death by beasts, if he is one of you by birth, or of another nation, will have to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening, and then he will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:18:3 @You may not do those things which were done in the land of Egypt where you were living; and you may not do those things which are done in the land of Canaan where I am taking you, or be guided in your behaviour by their rules.

bbe@Leviticus:18:7 @You may not have sex relations with your father or your mother: she is your mother, you may not take her.

bbe@Leviticus:18:8 @And you may not have sex relations with your father's wife: she is your father's.

bbe@Leviticus:18:9 @You may not take your sister, the daughter of your father or of your mother, wherever her birth took place, among you or in another country.

bbe@Leviticus:18:11 @Or your father's wife's daughter, the child of your father, for she is your sister.

bbe@Leviticus:18:12 @You may not have sex connection with your father's sister, for she is your father's near relation.

bbe@Leviticus:18:13 @You may not have sex connection with your mother's sister, for she is your mother's near relation.

bbe@Leviticus:18:14 @You may not have sex relations with the wife of your father's brother, for she is of your family;

bbe@Leviticus:18:15 @Or with your daughter-in-law, for she is your son's wife, and you may not take her.

bbe@Leviticus:18:16 @You may not have sex relations with your brother's wife, for she is your brother's.

bbe@Leviticus:18:17 @You may not take as wife a woman and her daughter, or her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter, for they are of one family: it is an act of shame.

bbe@Leviticus:18:18 @And you may not take as wife a woman and at the same time her sister, to be in competition with her in her life-time.

bbe@Leviticus:18:19 @And you may not go near a woman or have sex relations with her when she is unclean, at her regular time.

bbe@Leviticus:18:20 @And you may not have sex relations with your neighbour's wife, making yourself unclean with her.

bbe@Leviticus:18:23 @And you may not have sex relations with a beast, making yourself unclean with it; and a woman may not give herself to a beast: it is an unnatural act.

bbe@Leviticus:18:26 @So then keep my rules and my decisions, and do not do any of these disgusting things, those of you who are Israelites by birth, or any others who are living with you:

bbe@Leviticus:18:27 @(For all these disgusting things were done by the men of this country who were there before you, and the land has been made unclean by them;)

bbe@Leviticus:18:28 @So that the land may not put you out from it, when you make it unclean, as it put out the nations which were there before you.

bbe@Leviticus:19:3 @Let every man give honour to his mother and to his father and keep my Sabbaths: I am the Lord your God.

bbe@Leviticus:19:10 @And do not take all the grapes from your vine-garden, or the fruit dropped on the earth; let the poor man, and the man from another country, have these: I am the Lord your God

bbe@Leviticus:19:11 @Do not take anyone's property or be false in act or word to another.

bbe@Leviticus:19:17 @Let there be no hate in your heart for your brother; but you may make a protest to your neighbour, so that he may be stopped from doing evil.

bbe@Leviticus:19:20 @If any man has sex relations with a servant-woman who has given her word to be married to a man, and has not been made free for a price or in any other way, the thing will be looked into; but they will not be put to death because she was not a free woman.

bbe@Leviticus:19:29 @Do not make your daughter common by letting her become a loose woman, for fear that the land may become full of shame.

bbe@Leviticus:19:33 @And if a man from another country is living in your land with you, do not make life hard for him;

bbe@Leviticus:20:2 @Again, say to the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or any other man living in Israel, gives his offspring to Molech, he is certainly to be put to death: he is to be stoned by the people of the land;

bbe@Leviticus:20:10 @And if a man has sex relations with another man's wife, even the wife of his neighbour, he and she are certainly to be put to death.

bbe@Leviticus:20:11 @And the man who has sex relations with his father's wife has put shame on his father: the two of them are to be put to death; their blood will be on them.

bbe@Leviticus:20:14 @And if a man takes as wife a woman and her mother, it is an act of shame; let them be burned with fire, all three of them, so that there may be no shame among you.

bbe@Leviticus:20:17 @And if a man takes his sister, daughter of his father or his mother, and has sex relations with her and she with him, it is an act of shame: they are to be cut off before the children of their people; he has had sex relations with his sister, and his sin will be on him.

bbe@Leviticus:20:18 @And if a man has sex relations with a woman at the time when she is unwell, he has seen her fountain and she has let the fountain of her blood be uncovered, and the two of them are to be cut off from among their people.

bbe@Leviticus:20:19 @And you may not have sex connection with your mother's sister or your father's sister, for they are his near relations: their sin will be on them.

bbe@Leviticus:20:20 @And if a man has sex relations with the wife of his father's brother, he has put shame on his father's brother: their sin will be on them; till the day of their death they will have no children.

bbe@Leviticus:20:21 @And if a man takes his brother's wife, it is an unclean act; he has put shame on his brother; they will have no children.

bbe@Leviticus:20:24 @But I have said to you, You will take their land and I will give it to you for your heritage, a land flowing with milk and honey: I am the Lord your God who have made you separate from all other peoples.

bbe@Leviticus:21:2 @But only for his near relations, for his mother or his father, his son or his daughter, and his brother;

bbe@Leviticus:21:7 @They may not take as wife a loose or common woman, or one who has been put away by her husband: for the priest is holy to his God.

bbe@Leviticus:21:9 @And if the daughter of a priest makes herself common and by her loose behaviour puts shame on her father, let her be burned with fire.

bbe@Leviticus:21:10 @And he who is the chief priest among his brothers, on whose head the holy oil has been put, who is marked out to put on the holy robes, may not let his hair go loose or have his clothing out of order as a sign of sorrow.

bbe@Leviticus:22:13 @But if a priest's daughter is a widow, or parted from her husband, and has no child, and has come back to her father's house as when she was a girl, she may take of her father's bread; but no outside person may do so.

bbe@Leviticus:22:18 @Say to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or of another nation living in Israel, makes an offering, given because of an oath or freely given to the Lord for a burned offering;

bbe@Leviticus:22:21 @And whoever makes a peace-offering to the Lord, in payment of an oath or as a free offering, from the herd or the flock, if it is to be pleasing to the Lord, let it be free from any mark or damage.

bbe@Leviticus:23:24 @Say to the children of Israel, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, let there be a special day of rest for you, a day of memory, marked by the blowing of horns, a meeting for worship.

bbe@Leviticus:23:31 @You may not do any sort of work: this is an order for ever through all your generations wherever you may be living.

bbe@Leviticus:26:37 @Falling on one another, as before the sword, when no one comes after them; you will give way before your haters.

bbe@Leviticus:26:39 @And those of you who are still living will be wasting away in their sins in the land of your haters; in the sins of their fathers they will be wasting away.

bbe@Leviticus:26:40 @And they will have grief for their sins and for the sins of their fathers, when their hearts were untrue to me, and they went against me;

bbe@Leviticus:26:43 @And the land, while she is without them, will keep her Sabbaths; and they will undergo the punishment of their sins, because they were turned away from my decisions and in their souls was hate for my laws.

bbe@Leviticus:26:45 @And because of them I will keep in mind the agreement which I made with their fathers, whom I took out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, to be their God: I am the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:27:20 @But if he has no desire to get it back, or if he has given it for a price to another man, it may not be got back again.

bbe@Leviticus:27:22 @And if a man gives to the Lord a field which he has got for money from another, which is not part of his heritage;

bbe@Leviticus:27:24 @In the year of Jubilee the field will go back to him from whom he got it, that is, to him whose heritage it was.

bbe@Leviticus:27:28 @But nothing which a man has given completely to the Lord, out of all his property, of man or beast, or of the land which is his heritage, may be given away or got back in exchange for money; anything completely given is most holy to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:27:32 @And a tenth part of the herd and of the flock, whatever goes under the rod of the valuer, will be holy to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:27:33 @He may not make search to see if it is good or bad, or make any changes in it; and if he makes exchange of it for another, the two will be holy; he will not get them back again.

bbe@Numbers:2:2 @The children of Israel are to put up their tents in the order of their families, by the flags of their fathers' houses, facing the Tent of meeting on every side.

bbe@Numbers:2:16 @The number of all the armies of Reuben together came to a hundred and fifty-one thousand, four hundred and fifty. They go forward second.

bbe@Numbers:2:32 @These are all who were numbered of the children of Israel, in the order of their fathers' families: all the armies in their tents together came to six hundred and three thousand, five hundred and fifty.

bbe@Numbers:2:34 @So the children of Israel did as the Lord said to Moses, so they put up their tents by their flags, and they went forward in the same order, by their families, and by their fathers' houses.

bbe@Numbers:3:4 @And Nadab and Abihu were put to death before the Lord when they made an offering of strange fire before the Lord, in the waste land of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar did the work of priests before Aaron their father.

bbe@Numbers:4:14 @Placing on the cloth all its vessels, the fire-baskets, the meat-hooks, the spades, and the basins; all the vessels of the altar; they are to put a leather cover over all these, and put its rods in their places.

bbe@Numbers:4:22 @Let the sons of Gershon be numbered by families, in the order of their fathers' houses;

bbe@Numbers:4:25 @They are to take up the curtains of the House, and the Tent of meeting with its cover and the leather cover over it, and the hangings for the door of the Tent of meeting;

bbe@Numbers:4:32 @And the pillars of the open space outside it, with their bases and their nails and cords and all the instruments used, and everything which has to be done there; all the instruments for which they are responsible are to be numbered by name.

bbe@Numbers:4:34 @So Moses and Aaron and the chiefs of the people took in hand the numbering of the sons of the Kohathites, by families, in the order of their fathers' houses;

bbe@Numbers:4:40 @Who were numbered by families in the order of their fathers' houses, were two thousand, six hundred and thirty.

bbe@Numbers:4:42 @And those of the sons of Merari who were numbered by families, in the order of their fathers' houses,

bbe@Numbers:5:14 @If the spirit of doubt comes into her husband's heart, and he has doubts of his wife, with good cause; or if he has doubts of her without cause:

bbe@Numbers:5:15 @Then let him take her to the priest, offering for her the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal, without oil or perfume; for it is a meal offering of a bitter spirit, a meal offering keeping wrongdoing in mind.

bbe@Numbers:5:16 @And the priest will make her come near and put her before the Lord;

bbe@Numbers:5:18 @And he will make the woman come before the Lord with her hair loose, and will put the meal offering, the offering of a bitter spirit, in her hands; and the priest will take in his hand the bitter water causing the curse;

bbe@Numbers:5:19 @And he will make her take an oath, and say to her, If no man has been your lover and you have not been with another in place of your husband, you are free from this bitter water causing the curse;

bbe@Numbers:5:20 @But if you have been with another in place of your husband and have made yourself unclean with a lover:

bbe@Numbers:5:21 @Then the priest will put the oath of the curse on the woman, and say to her, May the Lord make you a curse and an oath among your people, sending on you wasting of the legs and disease of the stomach;

bbe@Numbers:5:24 @And he will give to the woman the bitter water for drink; and the bitter water causing the curse will go into her.

bbe@Numbers:5:25 @And the priest will take from her hand the meal offering of doubt, waving it before the Lord, and will take it to the altar;

bbe@Numbers:5:27 @And it will be that if the woman has become unclean, sinning against her husband, when she has taken the bitter water it will go into her body, causing disease of the stomach and wasting of the legs, and she will be a curse among her people.

bbe@Numbers:5:29 @This is the law for testing a wife who goes with another in place of her husband and becomes unclean;

bbe@Numbers:5:30 @Or for a husband who, in a bitter spirit, has doubts in his heart about his wife; let him take her to the priest, who will put in force this law.

bbe@Numbers:5:31 @Then the man will be free from all wrong, and the woman's sin will be on her.

bbe@Numbers:6:7 @He may not make himself unclean for his father or his mother, his sister or his brother, if death comes to them; because he is under an oath to keep himself separate for God.

bbe@Numbers:6:11 @And the priest will give one for a sin-offering and the other for a burned offering to take away the sin which came on him on account of the dead, and he will make his head holy that same day.

bbe@Numbers:6:20 @Waving them for a wave offering before the Lord; this is holy for the priest, together with the waved breast and the leg which is lifted up; after that, the man may take wine.

bbe@Numbers:7:2 @Then the chiefs of Israel, the heads of their fathers' houses, made offerings; these were the chiefs of the tribes, who were over those who were numbered.

bbe@Numbers:7:72 @On the eleventh day Pagiel, the son of Ochran, chief of the children of Asher:

bbe@Numbers:8:8 @Then let them take a young ox and its meal offering, crushed grain mixed with oil, and take another ox for a sin-offering.

bbe@Numbers:8:9 @And make the Levites come forward in front of the Tent of meeting, and let all the children of Israel come together:

bbe@Numbers:8:12 @And the Levites are to put their hands on the heads of the oxen, and one of the oxen is to be offered for a sin-offering and the other for a burned offering to the Lord to take away the sin of the Levites.

bbe@Numbers:8:16 @For they have been given to me from among the children of Israel; in place of every mother's first son, the first to come to birth in Israel, I have taken them for myself.

bbe@Numbers:8:17 @For every mother's first son among the children of Israel is mine, the first male birth of man or beast: on the day when I sent death on all the first sons in the land of Egypt, I made them mine.

bbe@Numbers:8:26 @But be with their brothers in the Tent of meeting, taking care of it but doing no work. This is what you are to do in connection with the Levites and their work.

bbe@Numbers:9:6 @And there were certain men who were unclean because of a dead body, so that they were not able to keep the Passover on that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:

bbe@Numbers:9:14 @And if a man from another country is among you and has a desire to keep the Passover to the Lord, let him do as is ordered in the law of the Passover: there is to be the same rule for the man from another nation and for him who had his birth in the land.

bbe@Numbers:9:15 @And on the day when the House was put up, the cloud came down on it, on the Tent of witness; and in the evening there was a light like fire over the House till the morning.

bbe@Numbers:9:17 @And whenever the cloud was taken up from over the House, then the children of Israel went journeying on; and in the place where the cloud came to rest, there the children of Israel put up their tents.

bbe@Numbers:9:21 @And sometimes the cloud was there only from evening to morning; and when the cloud was taken up in the morning they went on their journey again: or if it was resting there by day and by night, whenever the cloud was taken up they went forward.

bbe@Numbers:9:22 @Or if the cloud came to rest on the House for two days or a month or a year without moving, the children of Israel went on waiting there and did not go on; but whenever it was taken up they went forward on their journey.

bbe@Numbers:10:2 @Make two silver horns of hammered work, to be used for getting the people together and to give the sign for the moving of the tents.

bbe@Numbers:10:3 @When they are sounded, all the people are to come together to you at the door of the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Numbers:10:7 @But when all the people are to come together, the horn is to be sounded but not loudly.

bbe@Numbers:10:21 @Then the Kohathites went forward with the holy place; the others put up the House ready for their coming.

bbe@Numbers:10:26 @At the head of the army of the children of Asher was Pagiel, the son of Ochran.

bbe@Numbers:10:29 @Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of his father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, We are journeying to that place of which the Lord has said, I will give it to you: so come with us, and it will be for your profit: for the Lord has good things in store for Israel.

bbe@Numbers:10:34 @And by day the cloud of the Lord went over them, when they went forward from the place where they had put up their tents.

bbe@Numbers:11:6 @But now our soul is wasted away; there is nothing at all: we have nothing but this manna before our eyes.

bbe@Numbers:11:12 @Am I the father of all this people? have I given them birth, that you say to me, Take them in your arms, like a child at the breast, to the land which you gave by an oath to their fathers?

bbe@Numbers:11:13 @Where am I to get flesh to give to all this people? For they are weeping to me and saying, Give us flesh for our food.

bbe@Numbers:11:16 @And the Lord said to Moses, Send for seventy of the responsible men of Israel, who are in your opinion men of weight and authority over the people; make them come to the Tent of meeting and be there with you.

bbe@Numbers:11:17 @And I will come down and have talk with you there: and I will take some of the spirit which is on you and put it on them, and they will take part of the weight of the people off you, so that you do not have to take it by yourself.

bbe@Numbers:11:22 @Are flocks and herds to be put to death for them? or are all the fish in the sea to be got together so that they may be full?

bbe@Numbers:11:26 @But two men were still in the tent-circle one of them named Eldad and the other Medad: and the spirit came to rest on them; they were among those who had been sent for, but they had not gone out to the Tent: and the prophet's power came on them in the tent-circle.

bbe@Numbers:11:34 @So that place was named Kibroth-hattaavah; because there they put in the earth the bodies of the people who had given way to their desires.

bbe@Numbers:11:35 @From Kibroth-hattaavah the people went on to Hazeroth; and there they put up their tents.

bbe@Numbers:12:3 @Now the man Moses was more gentle than any other man on earth.

bbe@Numbers:12:6 @And he said, Now give ear to my words: if there is a prophet among you I will give him knowledge of myself in a vision and will let my words come to him in a dream.

bbe@Numbers:12:12 @Let her not be as one dead, whose flesh is half wasted when he comes out from the body of his mother.

bbe@Numbers:12:13 @And Moses, crying to the Lord, said, Let my prayer come before you, O God, and make her well

bbe@Numbers:12:14 @And the Lord said to Moses, If her father had put a mark of shame on her, would she not be shamed for seven days? Let her be shut up outside the tent-circle for seven days, and after that she may come in again.

bbe@Numbers:13:2 @Send men to get knowledge about the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the children of Israel; from every tribe of their fathers you are to send a man, every one a chief among them.

bbe@Numbers:13:13 @Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur, the son of Michael

bbe@Numbers:13:20 @And if the land is fertile or poor, and if there is wood in it or not. And be of good heart, and come back with some of the produce of the land. Now it was the time when the first grapes were ready.

bbe@Numbers:13:22 @They went up into the South and came to Hebron; and Ahiman and Sheshai and Talmai, the children of Anak, were living there. (Now the building of Hebron took place seven years before that of Zoan in Egypt.)

bbe@Numbers:13:24 @That place was named the valley of Eshcol because of the grapes which the children of Israel took from there.

bbe@Numbers:13:27 @And they said, We came to the land where you sent us, and truly it is flowing with milk and honey: and here is some of the produce of it.

bbe@Numbers:13:28 @But the people living in the land are strong, and the towns are walled and very great; further, we saw the children of Anak there.

bbe@Numbers:13:32 @And they gave the children of Israel a bad account of the land they had been to see, saying, This land through which we went is a land causing destruction to those living in it; and all the people we saw there are men of more than common size.

bbe@Numbers:13:33 @There we saw those great men, the sons of Anak, offspring of the Nephilim: and we seemed to ourselves no more than insects, and so we seemed to them.

bbe@Numbers:14:4 @And they said to one another, Let us make a captain over us, and go back to Egypt.

bbe@Numbers:14:12 @I will send disease on them for their destruction, and take away their heritage, and I will make of you a nation greater and stronger than they.

bbe@Numbers:14:18 @The Lord is slow to wrath and great in mercy, overlooking wrongdoing and evil, and will not let wrongdoers go free; sending punishment on children for the sins of their fathers, to the third and fourth generation.

bbe@Numbers:14:23 @They will not see the land about which I made an oath to their fathers; not one of these by whom I have not been honoured will see it.

bbe@Numbers:14:24 @But my servant Caleb, because he had a different spirit in him, and has been true to me with all his heart, him I will take into that land into which he went, and his seed will have it for their heritage.

bbe@Numbers:14:35 @I the Lord have said it, and this I will certainly do to all this evil people who have come together against me: in this waste land destruction will come on them, and death will be their fate.

bbe@Numbers:14:40 @And early in the morning they got up and went to the top of the mountain, saying, We are here and we will go up to the place which the Lord said he would give us: for we have done wrong.

bbe@Numbers:14:43 @For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and you will be put to death by their swords: because you have gone back from the way of the Lord, the Lord will not be with you.

bbe@Numbers:15:3 @And are going to make an offering by fire to the Lord, a burned offering or an offering in connection with an oath, or an offering freely given, or at your regular feasts, an offering for a sweet smell to the Lord, from the herd or the flock:

bbe@Numbers:15:5 @And for the drink offering, you are to give with the burned offering or other offering, the fourth part of a hin of wine for every lamb.

bbe@Numbers:15:8 @And when you make ready a young ox for a burned or other offering, or for the effecting of an oath, or for peace-offerings to the Lord:

bbe@Numbers:15:14 @And if a man from another country or any other person living among you, through all your generations, has the desire to give an offering made by fire of a sweet smell to the Lord, let him do as you do.

bbe@Numbers:15:15 @There is to be one law for you and for the man of another country living with you, one law for ever from generation to generation; as you are, so is he to be before the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:15:16 @The law and the rule are to be the same for you and for those from other lands living with you.

bbe@Numbers:15:18 @Say to the children of Israel, When you come into the land where I am guiding you,

bbe@Numbers:15:24 @Then, if the wrong is done in error, without the knowledge of the meeting of the people, let all the meeting give a young ox as a burned offering, a sweet smell to the Lord, with its meal offering and its drink offering, as is ordered in the law, together with a he-goat for a sin-offering.

bbe@Numbers:15:26 @And all the meeting of the children of Israel, as well as those from other lands living among them, will have forgiveness; for it was an error on the part of the people.

bbe@Numbers:15:29 @The law in connection with wrong done unconsciously is to be the same for him who is an Israelite by birth and for the man from another country who is living among them.

bbe@Numbers:15:30 @But the person who does wrong in the pride of his heart, if he is one of you or of another nation by birth, is acting without respect for the Lord, and will be cut off from his people.

bbe@Numbers:15:36 @So all the people took him outside the tent-circle and he was stoned to death there, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Numbers:16:3 @They came together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, You take overmuch on yourselves, seeing that all the people are holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them; why then have you put yourselves in authority over the people of the Lord?

bbe@Numbers:16:10 @Letting you, and all your brothers the sons of Levi, come near to him? and would you now be priests?

bbe@Numbers:16:11 @So you and all your band have come together against the Lord; and Aaron, who is he, that you are crying out against him?

bbe@Numbers:16:14 @And more than this, you have not taken us into a land flowing with milk and honey, or given us a heritage of fields and vine-gardens: will you put out the eyes of these men? We will not come up.

bbe@Numbers:16:19 @And Korah made all the people come together against them to the door of the Tent of meeting: and the glory of the Lord was seen by all the people.

bbe@Numbers:16:32 @And the earth, opening her mouth, took them in, with their families, and all the men who were joined to Korah, and their goods.

bbe@Numbers:16:42 @Now when the people had come together against Moses and Aaron, looking in the direction of the Tent of meeting, they saw the cloud covering it, and the glory of the Lord came before their eyes.

bbe@Numbers:17:2 @Say to the children of Israel that they are to give you rods, one for every family, for every chief, the head of his father's house, making twelve rods; let every man's name be placed on his rod.

bbe@Numbers:17:3 @And let Aaron's name be placed on the rod of Levi: for there is to be one rod for the head of every family.

bbe@Numbers:17:4 @And let them be stored up in the Tent of meeting, in front of the ark of witness where I come to you.

bbe@Numbers:18:1 @And the Lord said to Aaron, You and your sons and your father's family are to be responsible for all wrongdoing in relation to the holy place: and you and your sons are to be responsible for the errors which come about in your work as priests.

bbe@Numbers:18:2 @Let your brothers, the family of Levi, come near with you, so that they may be joined with you and be your servants: but you and your sons with you are to go in before the ark of witness.

bbe@Numbers:18:4 @They are to be joined with you in the care of the Tent of meeting, doing whatever is needed for the Tent: and no one of any other family may come near you.

bbe@Numbers:18:6 @Now, see, I have taken your brothers the Levites from among the children of Israel: they are given to you and to the Lord, to do the work of the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Numbers:18:7 @And you and your sons with you are to be responsible as priests for the altar and everything on it, and everything inside the veil; you are to do the work of priests; I have given you your position as priests; and any other man who comes near will be put to death.

bbe@Numbers:18:20 @And the Lord said to Aaron, You will have no heritage in their land, or any part among them; I am your part and your heritage among the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:18:21 @And to the children of Levi I have given as their heritage all the tenths offered in Israel, as payment for the work they do, the work of the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Numbers:18:23 @But the Levites are to do the work of the Tent of meeting, and be responsible for errors in connection with it: this is a law for ever through all your generations; and among the children of Israel they will have no heritage.

bbe@Numbers:18:24 @For the tenths which the children of Israel give as a lifted offering to the Lord I have given to the Levites as their heritage. and so I have said to them, Among the children of Israel they will have no heritage.

bbe@Numbers:18:26 @Say to the Levites, When you take from the children of Israel the tenth which I have given to you from them as your heritage, a tenth part of that tenth is to be offered as an offering lifted up before the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:18:30 @Say to them, then, When the best of it is lifted up on high, it is to be put to the account of the Levites as the increase of the grain-floor and of the place where the grapes are crushed.

bbe@Numbers:19:2 @This is the rule of the law which the Lord has made, saying, Give orders to the children of Israel to give you a red cow without any mark on her, and on which the yoke has never been put:

bbe@Numbers:19:3 @Give her to Eleazar the priest and let him take her outside the tent-circle and have her put to death before him.

bbe@Numbers:19:4 @Then let Eleazar the priest take some of her blood on his finger, shaking the blood seven times in the direction of the front of the Tent of meeting:

bbe@Numbers:19:5 @And the cow is to be burned before him, her skin and her flesh and her blood and her waste are to be burned:

bbe@Numbers:19:6 @Then let the priest take cedar-wood and hyssop and red thread, and put them into the fire where the cow is burning.

bbe@Numbers:19:9 @Then let a man who is clean take the dust of the burned cow and put it outside the tent-circle in a clean place, where it is to be kept for the children of Israel and used in making the water which takes away what is unclean: it is a sin-offering.

bbe@Numbers:19:10 @And he who takes up the dust of the burned cow is to have his clothing washed with water and be unclean till evening: this is to be a law for ever, for the children of Israel as well as for the man from another country who is living among them

bbe@Numbers:19:18 @And a clean person is to take hyssop and put it in the water, shaking it over the tent, and all the vessels, and the people who were there, and over him by whom the bone, or the body of one who has been put to death with the sword, or the body of one who has come to his end by a natural death, or the resting-place was touched.

bbe@Numbers:20:1 @In the first month all the children of Israel came into the waste land of Zin, and put up their tents in Kadesh; there death came to Miriam, and they put her body to rest in the earth.

bbe@Numbers:20:2 @And there was no water for the people: and they came together against Moses and against Aaron.

bbe@Numbers:20:3 @And the people were angry with Moses and said, If only death had overtaken us when our brothers came to their death before the Lord!

bbe@Numbers:20:4 @Why have you taken the Lord's people into this waste, for death to come to us and to our cattle there?

bbe@Numbers:20:5 @Why have you made us come out of Egypt into this evil place? This is no place of seed or figs or vines or other fruits, and there is no water for drinking.

bbe@Numbers:20:6 @Then Moses and Aaron went away from the people to the door of the Tent of meeting; and, falling on their faces there, they saw the glory of the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:20:8 @Take the rod, you and Aaron, your brother, and make all the people come together, and before their eyes give orders to the rock to give out its water; and so make water come out of the rock for them, and give the people and their cattle drink.

bbe@Numbers:20:10 @Then Moses and Aaron made the people come together in front of the rock, and he said to them, Give ear now, you people whose hearts are turned from the Lord; are we to get water for you out of the rock?

bbe@Numbers:20:14 @Then Moses sent men from Kadesh to the king of Edom to say to him, Your brother Israel says, You have knowledge of all the things we have been through;

bbe@Numbers:20:15 @How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we were living in Egypt for a long time; and the Egyptians were cruel to us and to our fathers:

bbe@Numbers:20:21 @So Edom would not let Israel go through his land; and Israel went in another direction.

bbe@Numbers:20:26 @And take Aaron's robes off him and put them on Eleazar, his son: and death will come to Aaron there, and he will be put to rest with his people.

bbe@Numbers:20:28 @And Moses took off Aaron's robes, and put them on Eleazar, his son; and there on the top of the mountain death came to Aaron: then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.

bbe@Numbers:21:5 @And crying out against God and against Moses, they said, Why have you taken us out of Egypt to come to our death in the waste land? For there is no bread and no water, and this poor bread is disgusting to us.

bbe@Numbers:21:12 @And moving on from there, they put up their tents in the valley of Zered.

bbe@Numbers:21:13 @From there they went on and put up their tents on the other side of the Arnon, which is on the waste land at the edge of the land of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the line of division between Moab and the Amorites:

bbe@Numbers:21:16 @From there they went on to Beer, the water-spring of which the Lord said to Moses, Make the people come together and I will give them water.

bbe@Numbers:21:23 @And Sihon would not let Israel go through his land; but got all his people together and went out against Israel into the waste land, as far as Jahaz, to make war on Israel.

bbe@Numbers:21:32 @And Moses sent men secretly to Jazer, and they took its towns, driving out the Amorites who were living there.

bbe@Numbers:21:35 @So they overcame him and his sons and his people, driving them all out: and they took his land for their heritage.

bbe@Numbers:22:1 @Then the children of Israel, journeying on, put up their tents in the lowlands of Moab, on the other side of Jordan at Jericho.

bbe@Numbers:22:3 @And in Moab there was great fear of the people, because their numbers were so great: and the feeling of Moab was bitter against the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:22:8 @And he said to them, Take your rest here tonight, and I will give you an answer after hearing what the Lord says; so the chiefs of Moab kept there with Balaam that night.

bbe@Numbers:22:15 @So Balak sent more chiefs, greater in number and of higher position than the others.

bbe@Numbers:22:19 @So take your rest here this night, till I have knowledge what more the Lord has to say to me.

bbe@Numbers:22:23 @And the ass saw the angel of the Lord waiting in the road with his sword in his hand; and turning from the road, the ass went into the field; and Balaam gave the ass blows, to get her back on to the road.

bbe@Numbers:22:25 @And the ass saw the angel of the Lord, and went near the wall, crushing Balaam's foot against the wall; and he gave her more blows.

bbe@Numbers:22:26 @Then the angel of the Lord went further, stopping in a narrow place where there was no room for turning to the right or to the left.

bbe@Numbers:22:27 @And the ass saw the angel of the Lord and went down on the earth under Balaam; and full of wrath, Balaam gave her hard blows with his stick.

bbe@Numbers:22:28 @Then the Lord gave the ass the power of talking, and opening her mouth she said to Balaam, What have I done to you that you have given me blows these three times?

bbe@Numbers:22:33 @And the ass saw me, turning to one side from me three times: if she had not gone to one side, I would certainly have put you to death and kept her safe.

bbe@Numbers:22:41 @And in the morning Balak took Balaam up to the high places of Baal, and from there he was able to see the outer limits of the people.

bbe@Numbers:23:1 @And Balaam said to Balak, Make me here seven altars and get ready seven oxen and seven male sheep.

bbe@Numbers:23:6 @So he went back to him where he was waiting by his burned offering with all the chiefs of Moab.

bbe@Numbers:23:13 @And Balak said to him, Come with me now into another place from which you will not be able to see them all, but only the outskirts of them; and you will send curses on them from there.

bbe@Numbers:23:14 @So he took him into the country of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and there they made seven altars, offering an ox and a male sheep on every altar.

bbe@Numbers:23:15 @Then he said to Balak, Take your place here by your burned offering, while I go over there to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:23:17 @So he came to him where he was waiting by his burned offering with the chiefs of Moab by his side. And Balak said to him, What has the Lord said?

bbe@Numbers:23:27 @Then Balak said to Balaam, Come now, I will take you to another place; it may be that God will let you put a curse on them from there.

bbe@Numbers:23:29 @And Balaam said to Balak, Make me seven altars here and get seven oxen and seven male sheep ready for me.

bbe@Numbers:24:1 @Now when Balaam saw that it was the Lord's pleasure to give his blessing to Israel, he did not, as at other times, make use of secret arts, but turning his face to the waste land,

bbe@Numbers:24:2 @And lifting up his eyes, he saw Israel there, with their tents in the order of their tribes: and the spirit of God came on him.

bbe@Numbers:24:7 @Peoples will be in fear before his strength, his arm will be on great nations: his king will be higher than Agag, and his kingdom made great in honour.

bbe@Numbers:24:18 @Edom will be his heritage, and he will put an end to the last of the people of Seir.

bbe@Numbers:24:24 @But ships will come from the direction of Kittim, troubling Asshur and troubling Eber, and like the others their fate will be destruction.

bbe@Numbers:25:6 @Then one of the children of Israel came to his brothers, taking with him a woman of Midian, before the eyes of Moses and all the meeting of the people, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Numbers:26:2 @Let all the children of Israel be numbered, by the names of their fathers' families, all those of twenty years old and over who are able to go to war in Israel.

bbe@Numbers:26:9 @And the sons of Eliab: Nemuel and Dathan and Abiram. These are the same Dathan and Abiram who had a place in the meeting of the people, who together with Korah made an outcry against Moses and Aaron and against the Lord:

bbe@Numbers:26:10 @And they went down into the open mouth of the earth, together with Korah, when death overtook him and all his band; at the time when two hundred and fifty men were burned in the fire, and they became a sign.

bbe@Numbers:26:29 @The sons of Manasseh: of Machir, the family of the Machirites: and Machir was the father of Gilead: of Gilead, the family of the Gileadites.

bbe@Numbers:26:32 @And of Shemida, the family of the Shemidaites: and of Hepher, the family of the Hepherites.

bbe@Numbers:26:33 @And Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, had no sons, but only daughters, and the names of the daughters of Zelophehad were Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

bbe@Numbers:26:35 @These are the sons of Ephraim by their families: of Shuthelah, the family of the Shuthelahites: of Becher, the family of the Becherites: of Tahan, the family of the Tahanites.

bbe@Numbers:26:44 @The sons of Asher by their families: of Imnah, the family of the Imnites: of Ishvi, the family of the Ishvites: of Beriah, the family of the Beriites.

bbe@Numbers:26:46 @And the name of the daughter of Asher was Serah.

bbe@Numbers:26:47 @These are the families of the sons of Asher as they were numbered, fifty-three thousand, four hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:53 @Let there be a division of the land among these, for their heritage, in relation to the number of names.

bbe@Numbers:26:54 @To those families who are more in number, give a greater heritage; to those who are less in number, a smaller part: to every one let the heritage be given in relation to the number in his family.

bbe@Numbers:26:55 @But let the distribution of the land be made by the decision of the Lord: by the names of the tribes of their fathers let their heritage be given them.

bbe@Numbers:26:58 @These are the families of Levi: the family of the Libnites, the family of the Hebronites, the family of the Mahlites, the family of the Mushites, the family of the Korahites. And Kohath was the father of Amram.

bbe@Numbers:26:62 @Of these, twenty-three thousand males, from one month old and over, were numbered: they were not numbered with the rest of the children of Israel, for they had no heritage among the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:27:1 @Then the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, came forward: their names are Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.

bbe@Numbers:27:3 @Death overtook our father in the waste land; he was not among those who were banded together with Korah against the Lord; but death came to him in his sin; and he had no sons.

bbe@Numbers:27:4 @Why is the name of our father to be taken away from among his family, because he had no son? Give us a heritage among our father's brothers.

bbe@Numbers:27:7 @What the daughters of Zelophehad say is right: certainly you are to give them a heritage among their father's brothers: and let the property which would have been their father's go to them.

bbe@Numbers:27:8 @And say to the children of Israel, If a man has no son at the time of his death, let his heritage go to his daughter.

bbe@Numbers:27:9 @And if he has no daughter, then give his heritage to his brothers.

bbe@Numbers:27:10 @And if he has no brothers, then give his heritage to his father's brothers.

bbe@Numbers:27:11 @And if his father has no brothers, then give it to his nearest relation in the family, as his heritage: this is to be a decision made by law for the children of Israel, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Numbers:27:13 @And when you have seen it, you will be put to rest with your people, as your brother Aaron was:

bbe@Numbers:28:4 @Let one be offered in the morning, and the other at evening;

bbe@Numbers:28:8 @Let the other lamb be offered at evening; like the meal offering of the morning and its drink offering, let it be offered as an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:28:17 @On the fifteenth day of this month there is to be a feast; for seven days let your food be unleavened cakes.

bbe@Numbers:28:18 @On the first day there is to be a holy meeting: you may do no sort of field-work:

bbe@Numbers:28:25 @Then on the seventh day there will be a holy meeting; you may do no field-work.

bbe@Numbers:28:26 @And at the time of the first-fruits, when you give an offering of new meal to the Lord at your feast of weeks, there is to be a holy meeting: you may do no field-work:

bbe@Numbers:29:1 @In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, let there be a holy meeting; on it you may do no field-work; let the day be marked by the blowing of horns;

bbe@Numbers:29:7 @And on the tenth day of this seventh month there will be a holy meeting; keep yourselves from pleasure, and do no sort of work;

bbe@Numbers:29:12 @And on the fifteenth day of the seventh month let there be a holy meeting; do no field-work, and keep a feast to the Lord for seven days;

bbe@Numbers:29:35 @On the eighth day let there be a holy meeting: you may do no field-work;

bbe@Numbers:30:3 @If a woman, being young and under the authority of her father, takes an oath to the Lord or gives an undertaking;

bbe@Numbers:30:4 @If her father, hearing of her oath or the undertaking she has given, says nothing to her, then all her oaths and every undertaking she has given will have force.

bbe@Numbers:30:5 @But if her father, hearing of it, makes her take back her word, then the oaths or the undertakings she has given will have no force; and she will have forgiveness from the Lord, because her oath was broken by her father.

bbe@Numbers:30:7 @If her husband, hearing of it, says nothing to her at the time, then the oaths she made and the undertakings she gave will have force.

bbe@Numbers:30:8 @But if her husband, hearing of it, makes her take it back, then the oath she made and the undertaking she gave without thought will have no force or effect, and she will have the Lord's forgiveness.

bbe@Numbers:30:9 @But an oath made by a widow or one who is no longer married to her husband, and every undertaking she has given, will have force.

bbe@Numbers:30:10 @If she made an oath while she was under the authority of her husband,

bbe@Numbers:30:11 @And her husband, hearing of it, said nothing to her and did not put a stop to it, then all her oaths and every undertaking she gave will have force.

bbe@Numbers:30:12 @But if her husband, on hearing of it, made them without force or effect, then whatever she has said about her oaths or her undertaking has no force: her husband has made them without effect, and she will have the Lord's forgiveness.

bbe@Numbers:30:13 @Every oath, and every undertaking which she gives, to keep herself from pleasure, may be supported or broken by her husband.

bbe@Numbers:30:14 @But if the days go on, and her husband says nothing whatever to her, then he is giving the support of his authority to her oaths and undertakings, because at the time of hearing them he said nothing to her.

bbe@Numbers:30:15 @But if at some time after hearing of them, he makes them without force, then he is responsible for her wrongdoing.

bbe@Numbers:30:16 @These are the laws which the Lord gave Moses in relation to a man and his wife, or a father and a young daughter who is under his authority.

bbe@Numbers:31:20 @And every bit of clothing, and anything made of leather or goats' hair or wood, you are to make clean.

bbe@Numbers:31:28 @And from the men of war who went out let there be offered to the Lord one out of every five hundred, from the persons, and from the oxen and asses and sheep:

bbe@Numbers:31:50 @And we have here an offering for the Lord from what every man took in the war, ornaments of gold, leg-chains and arm-rings, finger-rings, ear-rings, and neck-ornaments, to make our souls free from sin before the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:32:5 @And they said, With your approval, let this land be given to your servants as their heritage: do not take us over Jordan.

bbe@Numbers:32:6 @And Moses said to the children of Gad and the children of Reuben, Are your brothers to go to the war, while you take your rest here?

bbe@Numbers:32:8 @So did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land.

bbe@Numbers:32:14 @And now you have come to take the place of your fathers, another generation of sinners, increasing the wrath of the Lord against Israel.

bbe@Numbers:32:16 @Then they came to him, and said, We will make safe places for our cattle here, and towns for our little ones;

bbe@Numbers:32:18 @We will not come back to our houses till every one of the children of Israel has come into his heritage.

bbe@Numbers:32:19 @For we will not have our heritage with them on the other side of Jordan and forward; because our heritage has come to us on this side of Jordan to the east.

bbe@Numbers:32:22 @And the land is under the rule of the Lord: then after that you may come back, having done no wrong to the Lord and to Israel; and this land will be yours for your heritage before the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:32:26 @Our little ones, our wives, and our flocks, and all our cattle, will be there in the towns of Gilead;

bbe@Numbers:32:29 @And Moses said to them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben go with you over Jordan, every man armed for the fight before the Lord, and all the land is given into your hands, then let them have the land of Gilead for a heritage:

bbe@Numbers:32:30 @But if they do not go over with you armed, they will have to take their heritage with you in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Numbers:32:32 @We will go over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, and you will give us our heritage on this side of Jordan.

bbe@Numbers:32:38 @And Nebo and Baal-meon, (their names being changed,) and Sibmah: and they gave other names to the towns they made.

bbe@Numbers:32:39 @And the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, went to Gilead and took it, driving out the Amorites who were living there.

bbe@Numbers:33:9 @And from Marah they went on to Elim: and in Elim there were twelve water-springs and seventy palm-trees; and they put up their tents there.

bbe@Numbers:33:14 @And they went on from Alush, and put up their tents in Rephidim, where there was no drinking-water for the people.

bbe@Numbers:33:23 @And they went on from Kehelathah, and put up their tents in Mount Shepher.

bbe@Numbers:33:24 @And they went on from Mount Shepher, and put up their tents in Haradah.

bbe@Numbers:33:38 @And Aaron the priest went up into the mountain at the order of the Lord, and came to his death there, in the fortieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fifth month, on the first day of the month.

bbe@Numbers:33:53 @And take the land for yourselves, for your resting-place: for to you I have given the land as your heritage.

bbe@Numbers:33:54 @And you will take up your heritage in the land by the decision of the Lord, to every family its part; the greater the family the greater its heritage, and the smaller the family the smaller will be its heritage; wherever the decision of the Lord gives to any man his part, that will be his; distribution will be made to you by your fathers' tribes.

bbe@Numbers:33:55 @But if you are slow in driving out the people of the land, then those of them who are still there will be like pin-points in your eyes and like thorns in your sides, troubling you in the land where you are living.

bbe@Numbers:34:2 @Give orders to the children of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land which is to be your heritage, the land of Canaan inside these limits,)

bbe@Numbers:34:13 @And Moses gave orders to the children of Israel saying, This is the land which is to be your heritage, by the decision of the Lord, which by the Lord's order is to be given to the nine tribes and the half-tribe:

bbe@Numbers:34:14 @For the tribe of the children of Reuben, by their fathers' families, and the tribe of the children of Gad, by their fathers' families, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, have been given their heritage:

bbe@Numbers:34:15 @The two tribes and the half-tribe have been given their heritage on the other side of Jordan at Jericho, on the east looking to the dawn.

bbe@Numbers:34:27 @And of the tribe of the children of Asher, a chief, Ahihud, the son of Shelomi.

bbe@Numbers:34:29 @These are they to whom the Lord gave orders to make the distribution of the heritage among the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Numbers:35:2 @Give orders to the children of Israel to give to the Levites, from the heritage which is theirs, towns for themselves, with land on the outskirts of the towns.

bbe@Numbers:35:8 @And these towns are to be given out of the heritage of the children of Israel, taking the greater number from those who have much, and a smaller number from those who have little: everyone, in the measure of his heritage, is to give of his property to the Levites.

bbe@Numbers:35:11 @Then let certain towns be marked out as safe places to which anyone who takes the life of another in error may go in flight.

bbe@Numbers:35:14 @Three on the other side of Jordan and three in the land of Canaan, to be safe places for flight.

bbe@Numbers:35:15 @For the children of Israel and for the man from another country who is living among them, these six towns are to be safe places, where anyone causing the death of another through error may go in flight.

bbe@Numbers:35:16 @But if a man gives another man a blow with an iron instrument, causing his death, he is a taker of life and is certainly to be put to death.

bbe@Numbers:35:22 @But if a man has given a wound to another suddenly and not in hate, or without design has sent something against him,

bbe@Numbers:35:25 @And let the people keep the man responsible for the death safe from the hands of him who has the right of punishment for blood, and send him back to his safe town where he had gone in flight: there let him be till the death of the high priest who was marked with the holy oil.

bbe@Numbers:35:26 @But if ever he goes outside the walls of the safe town where he had gone in flight,

bbe@Numbers:35:28 @Because he had been ordered to keep inside the safe town till the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high priest the taker of life may come back to the place of his heritage.

bbe@Numbers:35:29 @These rules are to be your guide in judging through all your generations wherever you may be living.

bbe@Numbers:35:30 @Anyone causing the death of another is himself to be put to death on the word of witnesses: but the word of one witness is not enough.

bbe@Numbers:35:31 @Further, no price may be given for the life of one who has taken life and whose right reward is death: he is certainly to be put to death.

bbe@Numbers:35:33 @So do not make the land where you are living unholy: for blood makes the land unholy: and there is no way of making the land free from the blood which has come on it, but only by the death of him who was the cause of it.

bbe@Numbers:35:34 @Do not make unclean the land where you are living and in which is my House: for I the Lord am present among the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:36:2 @And said, The Lord gave orders to my lord to make distribution of the land as their heritage to the children of Israel: and my lord was ordered by the Lord to give the heritage of Zelophehad, our brother, to his daughters.

bbe@Numbers:36:3 @Now if they get married to any of the sons of other tribes of the children of Israel, then their property will be taken away from the heritage of our fathers, and become part of the heritage of the tribe into which they get married: and their heritage will be taken away from the heritage of our tribe.

bbe@Numbers:36:4 @And at the time of the Jubilee of the children of Israel, their property will be joined to the heritage of the tribe of which they are part and will be taken away from the heritage of the tribe of our fathers.

bbe@Numbers:36:6 @This is the order of the Lord about the daughters of Zelophehad: The Lord says, Let them take as their husbands whoever is most pleasing to them, but only among the family of their father's tribe.

bbe@Numbers:36:7 @And so no property will be handed from tribe to tribe among the children of Israel; but every one of the children of Israel will keep the heritage of his father's tribe.

bbe@Numbers:36:8 @And every daughter owning property in any tribe of the children of Israel is to be married to one of the family of her father's tribe, so that every man of the children of Israel may keep the heritage of his fathers.

bbe@Numbers:36:9 @And no property will be handed from one tribe to another, but every tribe of the children of Israel will keep its heritage.

bbe@Numbers:36:11 @For Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, took as their husbands the sons of their father's brothers:

bbe@Numbers:36:12 @And were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, and their property was kept in the tribe of their father's family

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:1 @These are the words which Moses said to all Israel on the far side of Jordan, in the waste land in the Arabah opposite Suph, between Paran on the one side, and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab on the other.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:8 @See, all the land is before you: go in and take for yourselves the land which the Lord gave by an oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and to their seed after them.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:11 @May the Lord, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times greater in number than you are, and give you his blessing as he has said!

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:16 @And at that time I gave orders to your judges, saying, Let all questions between your brothers come before you for hearing, and give decisions uprightly between a man and his brother or one from another nation who is with him.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:21 @See now, the Lord your God has put the land into your hands: go up and take it, as the Lord, the God of your fathers, has said to you; have no fear and do not be troubled.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:24 @And they went up into the hill-country and came to the valley of Eshcol, and saw what was there.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:28 @Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our hearts feeble with fear by saying, The people are greater and taller than we are, and the towns are great and walled up to heaven; and more than this, we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:31 @And in the waste land, where you have seen how the Lord was supporting you, as a man does his son, in all your journeying till you came to this place.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:33 @Who goes before you on your way, looking for a place where you may put up your tents, in fire by night, lighting up the way you are to go, and in a cloud by day.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:35 @Truly, not one of this evil generation will see that good land which I said I would give to your fathers,

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:38 @Joshua, the son of Nun, your servant, he will go into the land: say to him that he is to be strong, for he will be Israel's guide into their heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:4 @And give the people orders, saying, You are about to go through the land of your brothers, the children of Esau, who are living in Seir; and they will have fear of you; so take care what you do:

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:5 @Make no attack on them, for I will not give you any of their land, not even space enough for a man's foot: because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for his heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:8 @So we went on past our brothers, the children of Esau, living in Seir, by the road through the Arabah, from Elath and Ezion-geber. And turning, we went by the road through the waste land of Moab.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:9 @And the Lord said to me, Make no attack on Moab and do not go to war with them, for I will not give you any of his land: because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for their heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:10 @(In the past the Emim were living there; a great people, equal in numbers to the Anakim and as tall;

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:12 @And the Horites in earlier times were living in Seir, but the children of Esau took their place; they sent destruction on them and took their land for themselves, as Israel did to the land of his heritage which the Lord gave them.)

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:19 @And when you come near the land of the children of Ammon, give them no cause of trouble and do not make war on them, for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon for your heritage: because I have given it to the children of Lot.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:34 @At that time we took all his towns, and gave them over to complete destruction, together with men, women, and children; we had no mercy on any:

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:37 @But you did not go near the land of the children of Ammon, that is, all the side of the river Jabbok or the towns of the hill-country, wherever the Lord our God had said we were not to go.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:4 @At that time we took all his towns; there was not one town of the sixty towns, all the country of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan, which we did not take.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:6 @And we put them to the curse, every town together with men, women, and children.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:8 @At that time we took their land from the two kings of the Amorites on the far side of Jordan, from the valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon;

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:9 @(By the Sidonians, Hermon is named Sirion, and by the Amorites Shenir;)

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:13 @The rest of Gilead and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, all the land of Argob, together with Bashan, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh. (This land is named the land of the Rephaim.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:18 @At that time I gave you orders, saying, The Lord has given you this land for your heritage: all the men of war are to go over armed before your brothers the children of Israel.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:20 @Till the Lord has given rest to your brothers as to you, and till they have taken for themselves the land which the Lord your God is giving them on the other side of Jordan: then you may go back, every man of you, to the heritage which I have given you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:24 @O Lord God, you have now for the first time let your servant see your great power and the strength of your hand; for what god is there in heaven or on earth able to do such great works and such acts of power?

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:25 @Let me go over, O Lord, and see the good land on the other side of Jordan, and that fair mountain country, even Lebanon.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:28 @But give my orders to Joshua, comforting him and making him strong; for he is to go over Jordan at the head of this people, and he will give them this land which you will see for their heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:1 @And now give ear, O Israel, to the laws and the decisions which I am teaching you, and do them; so that life may be yours, and you may go in and take for yourselves the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, is giving you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:5 @I have been teaching you laws and decisions, as I was ordered to do by the Lord my God, so that you might keep them in the land to which you are going to take it for your heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:10 @That day when you were waiting before the Lord your God in Horeb, and the Lord said to me, Make all the people come together, so that hearing my words they may go in fear of me all the days of their life on earth and give this teaching to their children

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:12 @And the voice of the Lord came to you out of the fire: the sound of his words came to your ears but you saw no form; there was nothing but a voice.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:14 @And the Lord gave me orders at that time to make clear to you these laws and decisions, so that you might do them in the land to which you are going, and which is to be your heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:20 @But the Lord has taken you out of the flaming fire, out of Egypt, to be to him the people of his heritage, as you are today.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:21 @And the Lord was angry with me because of you, and made an oath that I was not to go over Jordan into the good land which the Lord is giving you for your heritage:

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:22 @But death is to come to me in this land, I may not go over Jordan: but you will go over and take that good land for your heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:24 @For the Lord your God is an all-burning fire, and he will not let the honour which is his be given to any other.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:27 @And the Lord will send you wandering among the peoples; only a small band of you will be kept from death among the nations where the Lord will send you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:28 @There you will be the servants of gods, made by men's hands, of wood and stone, having no power of seeing or hearing or taking food or smelling.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:31 @Because the Lord your God is a God of mercy, he will not take away his help from you or let destruction overtake you, or be false to the agreement which he made by an oath with your fathers.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:32 @Give thought now to the days which are past, before your time, from the day when God first gave life to man on the earth, and searching from one end of heaven to the other, see if such a great thing as this has ever been, or if anything like it has been talked of in story.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:34 @Has God ever before taken a nation for himself from out of another nation, by punishments and signs and wonders, by war and by a strong hand and a stretched-out arm and great acts of wonder and fear, as the Lord your God did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes?

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:35 @All this he let you see, so that you might be certain that the Lord is God and there is no other.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:37 @And because of his love for your fathers, he took their seed and made it his, and he himself, present among you, took you out of Egypt by his great power;

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:38 @Driving out before you nations greater and stronger than you, to take you into their land and give it to you for your heritage, as at this day.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:39 @So today be certain, and keep the knowledge deep in your hearts, that the Lord is God, in heaven on high and here on earth; there is no other God.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:47 @And they took his land for a heritage, and the land of Og, king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, whose lands were on the other side of Jordan to the east;

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:48 @From Aroer on the edge of the valley of the Arnon as far as Mount Sion, which is Hermon,

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:3 @The Lord did not make this agreement with our fathers but with us, who are all living and present here today.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:7 @You are to have no other gods but me.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:9 @You may not go down on your faces before them or give them worship: for I, the Lord your God, am a God who will not give his honour to another; and I will send punishment on the children for the wrongdoing of their fathers, to the third and fourth generation of my haters;

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:16 @Give honour to your father and your mother, as you have been ordered by the Lord your God; so that your life may be long and all may be well for you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:19 @Do not take the property of another.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:22 @These words the Lord said to all of you together on the mountain, out of the heart of the fire, out of the cloud and the dark, with a great voice: and he said no more; he put them in writing on the two stones of the law and gave them to me.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:26 @For what man is there in all the earth, who, hearing the voice of the living God as we have, out of the heart of the fire, has been kept from death?

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:31 @But as for you, keep your place here by me, and I will give you all the orders and the laws and the decisions which you are to make clear to them, so that they may do them in the land which I am giving them for their heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:32 @Take care, then, to do whatever the Lord your God has given you orders to do; let there be no turning away to the right hand or to the left.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:33 @Go on walking in the way ordered for you by the Lord your God, so that life may be yours and it may be well for you, and your days may be long in the land of your heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:1 @Now these are the orders and the laws and the decisions which the Lord your God gave me for your teaching, so that you might do them in the land of your heritage to which you are going:

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:3 @So give ear, O Israel, and take care to do this; so that it may be well for you, and you may be greatly increased, as the Lord the God of your fathers has given you his word, in a land flowing with milk and honey.

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:10 @And when the Lord your God has taken you into the land which he gave his oath to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, that he would give you; with great and fair towns which were not of your building;

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:14 @Do not go after other gods, the gods of the peoples round about you;

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:15 @For the Lord your God who is with you is a God who will not let his honour be given to another; or the wrath of the Lord will be burning against you, causing your destruction from the face of the earth.

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:18 @And do what is upright and good in the eyes of the Lord your God, so that it may be well for you and you may go in and take for your heritage that good land from which the Lord undertook by an oath to your fathers,

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:23 @And he took us out from that place, guiding us here to give us this land, as he said in his oath to our fathers.

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:1 @When the Lord your God takes you into the land where you are going, which is to be your heritage, and has sent out the nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and stronger than you;

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:4 @For through them your sons will be turned from me to the worship of other gods: and the Lord will be moved to wrath against you and send destruction on you quickly.

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:7 @The Lord did not give you his love or take you for himself because you were more in number than any other people; for you were the smallest of the nations:

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:8 @But because of his love for you, and in order to keep his oath to your fathers, the Lord took you out with the strength of his hand, making you free from the prison-house and from the hand of Pharaoh, king of Egypt.

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:12 @And it will be, that if you give attention to these decisions and keep and do them, then the Lord will keep his agreement with you and his mercy, as he said in his oath to your fathers.

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:13 @And he will give you his love, blessing you and increasing you: he will send his blessing on the offspring of your body and the fruit of your land, your grain and your wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the young of your flock, in the land which by his oath to your fathers he undertook to give you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:14 @You will have greater blessings than any other people: no male or female among you or among your cattle will be without offspring.

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:24 @He will give their kings into your hands, and you will put their names out of existence under heaven; there is not one of them who will not give way before you, till their destruction is complete.

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:1 @Take care to keep all the orders which I give you today, so that you may have life and be increased and go in and take as a heritage the land which the Lord, by his oath to your fathers, undertook to give you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:3 @And he made low your pride and let you be without food and gave you manna for your food, a thing new to you, which your fathers never saw; so that he might make it clear to you that bread is not man's only need, but his life is in every word which comes out of the mouth of the Lord.

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:5 @Keep in mind this thought, that as a son is trained by his father, so you have been trained by the Lord your God.

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:9 @Where there will be bread for you in full measure and you will be in need of nothing; a land where the very stones are iron and from whose hills you may get copper.

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:13 @And when your herds and your flocks are increased, and your stores of silver and gold, and you have wealth of every sort;

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:15 @Who was your guide through that great and cruel waste, where there were poison-snakes and scorpions and a dry land without water; who made water come out of the hard rock for you;

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:16 @Who gave you manna for your food in the waste land, a food which your fathers had never seen; so that your pride might be broken and your hearts tested for your good in the end;

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:18 @But keep in mind the Lord your God: for it is he who gives you the power to get wealth, so that he may give effect to the agreement which he made by his oath with your fathers, as at this day

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:19 @And it is certain that if at any time you are turned away from the Lord your God, and go after other gods, to be their servants and to give them worship, destruction will overtake you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:1 @Give ear, O Israel: today you are to go over Jordan, to take the heritage of nations greater and stronger than yourselves, and towns of great size with walls as high as heaven;

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:5 @Not for your righteousness or because your hearts are upright are you going in to take their land; but because of the evil-doing of these nations the Lord your God is driving them out from before you, and to give effect to his oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:26 @And I made prayer to the Lord and said, O Lord God, do not send destruction on your people and your heritage, to whom, by your great power, you have given salvation, whom you have taken out of Egypt by the strength of your hand.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:29 @But still they are your people and your heritage, whom you took out by your great power and by your stretched-out arm.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:1 @At that time the Lord said to me, Make two other stones, cut like the first two, and come up to me on the mountain, and make an ark of wood.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:3 @So I made an ark of hard wood, and had two stones cut like the others, and went up the mountain with the stones in my hands.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:5 @And turning round I came down from the mountain and put the stones in the ark which I had made; and there they are as the Lord gave me orders.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:6 @(And the children of Israel went on from Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah: there death came to Aaron and he was put to rest in the earth; and Eleazar, his son, took his place as priest.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:7 @From there they went on to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of streams of water.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:9 @For this reason Levi has no part or heritage for himself among his brothers: the Lord is his heritage, as the Lord your God said to him

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:11 @Then the Lord said to me, Get up and go on your journey before the people, so that they may go in and take the land which I said in my oath to their fathers that I would give them.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:15 @But the Lord had delight in your fathers and love for them, marking out for himself their seed after them, even you, from all peoples, as at this day.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:18 @Judging uprightly in the cause of the widow and of the child who has no father, and giving food and clothing in his mercy to the man from a strange country.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:22 @Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now the Lord your God has made you like the stars of heaven in number.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:8 @So keep all the orders which I give you today, so that you may be strong, and go in and take the land which is to be your heritage;

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:9 @And that your days may be long in the land which the Lord gave by an oath to your fathers and to their seed after them, a land flowing with milk and honey.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:10 @For the land where you are going is not like the land of Egypt from which you have come, where you put in your seeds, watering them with your foot, like a planted garden:

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:11 @But the land where you are going is a land of hills and valleys, drinking in the rain of heaven:

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:12 @A land cared for by the Lord your God: the eyes of the Lord your God are on it at all times from one end of the year to the other.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:16 @But take care that your hearts are not turned to false ways so that you become servants and worshippers of other gods;

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:17 @For if you do so, the wrath of the Lord will be burning against you, and the heaven will be shut up so that there is no rain and the land will give no fruit; and in a very little time you will be cut off from the good land which the Lord is giving you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:21 @So that your days, and the days of your children, may be long in the land which the Lord by his oath to your fathers said he would give them, like the days of the eternal heavens.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:24 @Every place where you put your foot will be yours: from the waste land and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates as far as the Great Sea, will be the limits of your land.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:28 @And the curse if you do not give ear to the orders of the Lord your God, but let yourselves be turned from the way which I have put before you this day, and go after other gods which are not yours.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:29 @And when the Lord your God has taken you into the land of your heritage, you are to put the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:30 @Are they not on the other side of Jordan, looking west, in the land of the Canaanites living in the Arabah, opposite Gilgal, by the holy tree of Moreh?

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:31 @For you are about to go over Jordan to take the heritage which the Lord your God is giving you, and it will be your resting-place.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:1 @These are the laws and the decisions which you are to keep with care in the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you to be your heritage all the days of your life on earth.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:2 @You are to give up to the curse all those places where the nations, whom you are driving out, gave worship to their gods, on the high mountains and the hills and under every green tree:

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:5 @But let your hearts be turned to the place which will be marked out by the Lord your God, among your tribes, to put his name there;

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:6 @And there you are to take your burned offerings and other offerings, and the tenth part of your goods, and the offerings to be lifted up to the Lord, and the offerings of your oaths, and those which you give freely from the impulse of your hearts, and the first births among your herds and your flocks;

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:7 @There you and all your families are to make a feast before the Lord your God, with joy in everything to which you put your hand, because the Lord has given you his blessing.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:8 @You are not to do things then in the way in which we now do them here, every man as it seems right to him:

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:9 @For you have not come to the rest and the heritage which the Lord your God is giving you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:10 @But when you have gone over Jordan and are living in the land which the Lord your God is giving you as your heritage, and when he has given you rest from all those on every side who are fighting against you, and you are living there safely;

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:11 @Then there will be a place marked out by the Lord your God as the resting-place for his name, and there you will take all the things which I give you orders to take: your burned offerings and other offerings, and the tenth part of your goods, and the offerings to be lifted up, and the offerings of your oaths which you make to the Lord;

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:12 @And you will be glad before the Lord your God, you and your sons and your daughters, and your men-servants and your women-servants, and the Levite who is with you in your house, because he has no part or heritage among you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:14 @But in the place marked out by the Lord in one of your tribes, there let your burned offerings be offered, and there do what I have given you orders to do.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:17 @In your towns you are not to take as food the tenth part of your grain, or of your wine or your oil, or the first births of your herds or of your flocks, or anything offered under an oath, or freely offered to the Lord, or given as a lifted offering;

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:18 @But they will be your food before the Lord your God in the place of his selection, where you may make a feast of them, with your son and your daughter, and your man-servant and your woman-servant, and the Levite who is living with you: and you will have joy before the Lord your God in everything to which you put your hand.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:21 @If the place marked out by the Lord your God as the resting-place for his name is far away from you, then take from your herds and from your flocks which the Lord has given you, as I have said, and have a meal of it in the towns where you may be living.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:29 @When the people of the land where you are going have been cut off before you by the Lord your God, and you have taken their land and are living in it;

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:2 @And the sign or the wonder takes place, and he says to you, Let us go after other gods, which are strange to you, and give them worship;

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:6 @If your brother, the son of your mother, or your son or your daughter or the wife of your heart, or the friend who is as dear to you as your life, working on you secretly says to you, Let us go and give worship to other gods, strange to you and to your fathers;

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:7 @Gods of the peoples round about you, near or far, from one end of the earth to the other;

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:13 @That good-for-nothing persons have gone out from among you, turning the people of their town from the right way and saying, Let us go and give worship to other gods, of whom you have no knowledge;

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:16 @And take all the goods into the middle of its open space, burning the town and all its property with fire as an offering to the Lord your God; it is to be a waste for ever; there is to be no more building there.

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:17 @Keep not a thing of what is cursed for yourselves: so the Lord may be turned away from the heat of his wrath, and have mercy on you, and give you increase as he said in his oath to your fathers:

bbe@Deuteronomy:14:7 @But even among these, there are some which may not be used for food: such as the camel, the hare, and the coney, which are unclean to you, because, though their food comes back, the horn of their feet is not parted in two.

bbe@Deuteronomy:14:18 @The stork and the heron and birds of that sort, and the hoopoe and the bat.

bbe@Deuteronomy:14:21 @You may not have as food anything which has come to a natural death; the man from another country who is living with you may take it for food, or you may get a price for it from one of another nation; for you are a holy people to the Lord your God.

bbe@Deuteronomy:14:23 @And make a feast before the Lord your God, in the place which is to be marked out, where his name will be for ever, of the tenth part of your grain and your wine and your oil, and the first births of your herds and your flocks; so that you may have the fear of the Lord your God in your hearts at all times.

bbe@Deuteronomy:14:26 @And with the money get whatever you have a desire for, oxen or sheep or wine or strong drink, whatever your soul's desire may be: and make a feast there before the Lord your God, and be glad, you and all your house;

bbe@Deuteronomy:14:27 @And give a thought to the Levite who is living among you, for he has no part or heritage in the land.

bbe@Deuteronomy:14:29 @And the Levite, because he has no part or heritage in the land, and the man from a strange country, and the child who has no father, and the widow, who are living among you, will come and take food and have enough; and so the blessing of the Lord your God will be on you in everything you do.

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:1 @At the end of every seven years there is to be a general forgiveness of debt.

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:3 @A man of another nation may be forced to make payment of his debt, but if your brother has anything of yours, let it go;

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:6 @For the Lord your God will give you his blessing as he has said: you will let other nations have the use of your money, but you will not make use of theirs; you will be rulers over a number of nations, but they will not be your rulers.

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:7 @If in any of your towns in the land which the Lord your God is giving you, there is a poor man, one of your countrymen, do not let your heart be hard or your hand shut to him;

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:9 @And see that there is no evil thought in your heart, moving you to say to yourself, The seventh year, the year of forgiveness is near; and so looking coldly on your poor countryman you give him nothing; and he will make an outcry to the Lord against you, and it will be judged as sin in you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:11 @For there will never be a time when there are no poor in the land; and so I give orders to you, Let your hand be open to your countrymen, to those who are poor and in need in your land.

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:19 @All the first males to come to birth in your herd and your flock are to be holy to the Lord your God: the first birth of your ox is not to be used for work, the wool of your first lamb is not to be cut

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:3 @You are to make ready a way, and see that the land which the Lord your God is giving you for your heritage, is marked out into three parts, to which any taker of life may go in flight.

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:4 @This is to be the rule for anyone who goes in flight there, after causing the death of his neighbour in error and not through hate;

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:8 @And if the Lord your God makes wide the limits of your land, as he said in his oath to your fathers, and gives you all the land which he undertook to give to your fathers;

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:10 @So that in all your land, which the Lord your God is giving you for your heritage, no man may be wrongly put to death, for which you will be responsible

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:1 @When you go out to war against other nations, and come face to face with horses and war-carriages and armies greater in number than yourselves, have no fear of them: for the Lord your God is with you, who took you up out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:5 @And let the overseers say to the people, If there is any man who has made for himself a new house and has not gone into it, let him go back to his house, so that in the event of his death in the fight, another may not take his house for himself.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:9 @Who said of his father, Who is he? and of his mother, I have not seen her; he kept himself separate from his brothers and had no knowledge of his children: for they have given ear to your word and kept your agreement.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:10 @They will be the teachers of your decisions to Jacob and of your law to Israel: the burning of perfumes before you will be their right, and the ordering of burned offerings on your altar.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:16 @The good things of the earth and all its wealth, the good pleasure of him who was seen in the burning tree: may they come on the head of Joseph, on the head of him who was prince among his brothers.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:19 @They will send out the word for the people to come to the mountain, taking there the offerings of righteousness: for the store of the seas will be theirs, and the secret wealth of the sand.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:24 @And of Asher he said, Let Asher have the blessing of children; may he be pleasing to his brothers, and let his foot be wet with oil.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:26 @No other is like the God of Jeshurun, coming on the heavens to your help, and letting his glory be seen in the skies.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:27 @The God of your fathers is your safe resting-place, and under you are his eternal arms: driving out the forces of your haters from before you, he said, Let destruction overtake them.

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:4 @And the Lord said to him, This is the land about which I made an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed: now I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not go in there.

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:5 @So death came to Moses, the servant of the Lord, there in the land of Moab, as the Lord had said.

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:10 @There has never been another prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord had knowledge of face to face;

bbe@Joshua:1:6 @Take heart and be strong; for you will give to this people for their heritage the land which I gave by an oath to their fathers.

bbe@Joshua:1:9 @Have I not given you your orders? Take heart and be strong; have no fear and do not be troubled; for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go,

bbe@Joshua:1:11 @Go through the tents and give orders to the people, saying, Get ready a store of food; for in three days you are to go over this river Jordan and take for your heritage the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

bbe@Joshua:1:14 @Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle will be kept here in the land which Moses gave you on this side of Jordan; but you, the fighting-men, are to go over before your brothers, armed, to give them help;

bbe@Joshua:1:15 @Till the Lord has given your brothers rest, as he has given it to you, and they have taken their heritage in the land which the Lord your God is giving them: then you will go back to the land of your heritage which Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave you on the east side of Jordan.

bbe@Joshua:1:16 @Then they said to Joshua in answer, Whatever you say to us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.

bbe@Joshua:2:1 @Then Joshua, the son of Nun, sent two men from Shittim secretly, with the purpose of searching out the land, and Jericho. So they went and came to the house of a loose woman of the town, named Rahab, where they took their rest for the night.

bbe@Joshua:2:2 @And it was said to the king of Jericho, See, some men have come here tonight from the children of Israel with the purpose of searching out the land.

bbe@Joshua:2:4 @And the woman took the two men and put them in a secret place; then she said, Yes, the men came to me, but I had no idea where they came from;

bbe@Joshua:2:5 @And when it was the time for shutting the doors at dark, they went out; I have no idea where the men went: but if you go after them quickly, you will overtake them.

bbe@Joshua:2:6 @But she had taken them up to the roof, covering them with the stems of flax which she had put out in order there.

bbe@Joshua:2:10 @For we have had news of how the Lord made the Red Sea dry before you when you came out of Egypt; and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites, on the other side of Jordan, to Sihon and Og, whom you gave up to the curse.

bbe@Joshua:2:11 @And because of this news, our hearts became like water, and there was no more spirit in any of us because of you; for the Lord your God is God in heaven on high and here on earth.

bbe@Joshua:2:12 @So now, will you give me your oath by the Lord, that, because I have been kind to you, you will be kind to my father's house,

bbe@Joshua:2:13 @And that you will keep safe my father and mother and my brothers and sisters and all they have, so that death may not come on us?

bbe@Joshua:2:14 @And the men said to her, Our life for yours if you keep our business secret; and when the Lord has given us the land, we will keep faith and be kind to you.

bbe@Joshua:2:15 @Then she let them down from the window by a cord, for the house where she was living was on the town wall.

bbe@Joshua:2:16 @And she said to them, Get away into the hill-country, or the men who have gone after you will overtake you; keep yourselves safe there for three days, till the searchers have come back, and then go on your way.

bbe@Joshua:2:17 @And the men said to her, We will only be responsible for this oath which you have made us take,

bbe@Joshua:2:18 @If, when we come into the land, you put this cord of bright red thread in the window from which you let us down; and get your father and mother and your brothers and all your family into the house;

bbe@Joshua:2:20 @But if you say anything about our business here, then we will be free from the oath you have made us take.

bbe@Joshua:2:22 @And they went into the hill-country and were there three days, till the men who had gone after them had come back; and those who went after them were searching for them everywhere without coming across them.

bbe@Joshua:3:1 @Then Joshua got up early in the morning, and, moving on from Shittim, he and all the children of Israel came to Jordan and were there for the night before going over.

bbe@Joshua:3:4 @But let there be a space between you and it of about two thousand cubits: come no nearer to it, so that you may see the way you have to go, for you have not been over this way before.

bbe@Joshua:3:8 @And you are to give orders to the priests who take up the ark of the agreement, and say, When you come to the edge of the waters of Jordan, go no further.

bbe@Joshua:3:9 @And Joshua said to the children of Israel, Come to me here: and give ear to the words of the Lord your God.

bbe@Joshua:3:13 @And when the feet of the priests who take up the ark of the Lord, the Lord of all the earth, come to rest in the waters of Jordan, the waters of Jordan will be cut off, all the waters flowing down from higher up, and will come together in a mass.

bbe@Joshua:3:16 @Then the waters flowing down from higher up were stopped and came together in a mass a long way back at Adam, a town near Zarethan; and the waters flowing down to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, were cut off: and the people went across opposite Jericho.

bbe@Joshua:4:1 @Now when all the nation had come to the other side of Jordan, the Lord said to Joshua,

bbe@Joshua:4:3 @And say to them, Take up from the middle of Jordan, from the place where the feet of the priests were resting, twelve stones, and take them over with you and put them down in the place where you take your rest tonight.

bbe@Joshua:4:8 @So the children of Israel did as Joshua gave them orders, and took twelve stones from the middle of Jordan, as the Lord had said to Joshua, one for every tribe of the children of Israel; these they took across with them to their night's resting-place and put them down there.

bbe@Joshua:4:9 @And Joshua put up twelve stones in the middle of Jordan, where the feet of the priests who took up the ark of the agreement had been placed: and there they are to this day.

bbe@Joshua:4:10 @For the priests who took up the ark kept there in the middle of Jordan till all the orders given to Joshua by Moses from the Lord had been done: then the people went over quickly

bbe@Joshua:4:11 @And when all the people had come to the other side, the ark of the Lord went over, and the priests, before the eyes of the people.

bbe@Joshua:4:21 @And he said to the children of Israel, When your children say to their fathers in time to come, What is the reason for these stones?

bbe@Joshua:5:1 @Now when the news came to all the kings of the Amorites on the west side of Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites living by the sea, how the Lord had made the waters of Jordan dry before the children of Israel, till they had gone across, their hearts became like water, and there was no more spirit in them, because of the children of Israel.

bbe@Joshua:5:6 @For the children of Israel were wandering in the waste land for forty years, till all the nation, that is, all the fighting-men, who had come out of Egypt, were dead, because they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord: to whom the Lord said, with an oath, that he would not let them see the land which the Lord had given his word to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

bbe@Joshua:5:7 @And their children, who came up in their place, now underwent circumcision by the hands of Joshua, not having had it before: for there had been no circumcision on the journey.

bbe@Joshua:5:12 @And there was no more manna from the day after they had for their food the produce of the land; the children of Israel had manna no longer, but that year the produce of the land of Canaan was their food

bbe@Joshua:5:15 @And the captain of the Lord's army said to Joshua, Take off your shoes from your feet, for the place where you are is holy. And Joshua did so.

bbe@Joshua:6:1 @(Now Jericho was all shut up because of the children of Israel: there was no going out or coming in.)

bbe@Joshua:6:17 @And the town will be put to the curse, and everything in it will be given to the Lord: only Rahab, the loose woman, and all who are in the house with her, will be kept safe, because she kept secret the men we sent.

bbe@Joshua:6:22 @Then Joshua said to the two men who had been sent to make a search through the land, Go into the house of the loose woman, and get her out, and all who are with her, as you gave her your oath.

bbe@Joshua:6:23 @So the searchers went in and got out Rahab and her father and mother and her brothers and all she had, and they got out all her family; and they took them outside the tents of Israel.

bbe@Joshua:6:25 @But Joshua kept Rahab, the loose woman, and her father's family and all she had, from death, and so she got a living-place among the children of Israel to this day; because she kept safe the men whom Joshua had sent to make a search through the land.

bbe@Joshua:7:3 @Then they came back to Joshua and said to him, Do not send all the people up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and make an attack on Ai; there is no need for all the people to be tired with the journey there, for it is only a small town.

bbe@Joshua:7:7 @And Joshua said, O Lord God, why have you taken us over Jordan only to give us up into the hands of the Amorites for our destruction? If only it had been enough for us to keep on the other side of Jordan!

bbe@Joshua:7:13 @Up! make the people holy; say to them, Make yourselves holy before tomorrow, for the Lord, the God of Israel, has said, There is a cursed thing among you, O Israel, and you will give way before your attackers in the fight till the cursed thing has been taken away from among you.

bbe@Joshua:7:22 @So Joshua sent men quickly, and looking in his tent, they saw where the robe had been put away secretly with the silver under it.

bbe@Joshua:7:26 @And over him they put a great mass of stones, which is there to this day; then the heat of the Lord's wrath was turned away. So that place was named, The Valley of Achor, to this day.

bbe@Joshua:8:16 @And all the people in Ai came together to go after them; and they went after Joshua, moving away from the town.

bbe@Joshua:8:17 @There was not a man in Ai and Beth-el who did not go out after Israel; and the town was open and unwatched while they went after Israel.

bbe@Joshua:8:22 @Then the other force came out of the town against them, so that they were being attacked on this side and on that: and Israel overcame them and let not one of them get away with his life.

bbe@Joshua:8:24 @Then, after the destruction of all the people of Ai in the field and in the waste land where they went after them, and when all the people had been put to death without mercy, all Israel went back to Ai, and put to death all who were in it without mercy.

bbe@Joshua:8:29 @And he put the king of Ai to death, hanging him on a tree till evening: and when the sun went down, Joshua gave them orders to take his body down from the tree, and put it in the public place of the town, covering it with a great mass of stones, which is there to this day.

bbe@Joshua:8:32 @And he made there on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, writing it before the eyes of the children of Israel.

bbe@Joshua:8:33 @And all Israel, those who were Israelites by birth, as well as the men from other lands living with them, and their responsible men and their overseers and judges, took their places round the ark, in front of the priests, the Levites, whose work it was to take up the ark of the Lord's agreement; half of them were stationed in front of Mount Gerizim and half in front of Mount Ebal, in agreement with the orders for the blessing of the children of Israel which Moses, the servant of the Lord, had given.

bbe@Joshua:8:35 @Reading to all the meeting of Israel, with the women and the children and the men from other lands who were living among them, every word of the orders which Moses had given.

bbe@Joshua:9:2 @Came together with one purpose, to make war against Joshua and Israel.

bbe@Joshua:9:4 @Acting with deceit, got food together as if for a long journey; and took old food-bags for their asses, and old and cracked wine-skins kept together with cord;

bbe@Joshua:9:8 @And they said to Joshua, We are your servants. Then Joshua said to them, Who are you and where do you come from?

bbe@Joshua:9:13 @And these wine-skins were new when we put the wine in them, and now they are cracked as you see; and our clothing and our shoes have become old because of our very long journey here.

bbe@Joshua:10:5 @So the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, were banded together, and went up with all their armies and took up their position before Gibeon and made war against it.

bbe@Joshua:10:6 @And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the tent-circle at Gilgal, saying, Be not slow to send help to your servants; come up quickly to our support and keep us safe: for all the kings of the Amorites from the hill-country have come together against us.

bbe@Joshua:10:14 @And there was no day like that, before it or after it, when the Lord gave ear to the voice of a man; for the Lord was fighting for Israel.

bbe@Joshua:10:26 @Then Joshua had them put to death, hanging them on five trees, where they were till evening.

bbe@Joshua:10:27 @And when the sun went down, they were taken down from the trees, by Joshua's orders, and put into the hole where they had gone to be safe; and great stones were placed at the mouth of the hole, where they are to this day.

bbe@Joshua:11:3 @And to the Canaanites on the east and on the west, and to the Amorites and the Hittites and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites in the hill-country, and the Hivites under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

bbe@Joshua:11:5 @And all these kings came together, and put their forces in position at the waters of Merom, to make war on Israel.

bbe@Joshua:11:14 @And all the goods taken from these towns, and their cattle, the children of Israel kept for themselves; but every man they put to death without mercy, till their destruction was complete, and there was no one living.

bbe@Joshua:11:17 @From Mount Halak, which goes up to Seir, as far as Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under Mount Hermon: and all their kings he overcame and put to death.

bbe@Joshua:11:23 @So Joshua took all the land, as the Lord had said to Moses; and Joshua gave it to the children of Israel as their heritage, making division of it among them by their tribes. And the land had rest from war.

bbe@Joshua:12:1 @Now these are the kings of the land whom the children of Israel overcame, taking as their heritage their land on the east side of Jordan, from the valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon, and all the Arabah to the east:

bbe@Joshua:12:5 @Ruling in the mountain of Hermon, and in Salecah, and in all Bashan, as far as the limits of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and half Gilead, to the land of Sihon, king of Heshbon.

bbe@Joshua:12:6 @Moses, the servant of the Lord, and the children of Israel overcame them; and Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave their land for a heritage to the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.

bbe@Joshua:12:7 @And these are the kings of the land whom Joshua and the children of Israel overcame on the west side of Jordan, from Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon to Mount Halak, which goes up to Seir; and Joshua gave the land to the tribes of Israel for a heritage, in keeping with their divisions;

bbe@Joshua:12:17 @The king of Tappuah, one; the king of Hepher, one;

bbe@Joshua:12:24 @The king of Tirzah, one; all the kings together were thirty-one.

bbe@Joshua:13:1 @Now Joshua was old and full of years; and the Lord said to him, You are old and full of years, and there is still very much land to be taken.

bbe@Joshua:13:5 @And the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon, looking east, from Baal-gad under Mount Hermon as far as Hamath:

bbe@Joshua:13:6 @All the people of the hill-country from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim, all the Zidonians; them will I send out from before the children of Israel: only make division of it to Israel for a heritage, as I have given you orders to do.

bbe@Joshua:13:7 @So now make division of this land for a heritage to the nine tribes, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.

bbe@Joshua:13:8 @With him the Reubenites and the Gadites have been given their heritage, which Moses gave them, on the east side of Jordan, as Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave them;

bbe@Joshua:13:11 @And Gilead, and the land of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salecah;

bbe@Joshua:13:14 @Only to the tribe of Levi he gave no heritage; the offerings of the Lord, the God of Israel, made by fire are his heritage, as he said to him.

bbe@Joshua:13:15 @And Moses gave their heritage to the tribe of Reuben by their families

bbe@Joshua:13:17 @Heshbon and all her towns in the table-land; Dibon, and Bamoth-baal, and Beth-baal-meon;

bbe@Joshua:13:21 @And all the towns of the table-land, and all the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was ruling in Heshbon, whom Moses overcame, together with the chiefs of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the chiefs of Sihon, who were living in the land.

bbe@Joshua:13:23 @And the limit of the children of Reuben was the edge of Jordan. This was the heritage of the children of Reuben by their families, with its towns and its unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:13:24 @And Moses gave their heritage to the tribe of Gad by their families.

bbe@Joshua:13:28 @This is the heritage of the children of Gad by their families, with its towns and its unwalled places

bbe@Joshua:13:29 @And Moses gave their heritage to the half-tribe of Manasseh by their families.

bbe@Joshua:13:32 @These are the heritages of which Moses made distribution in the lowlands of Moab, on the other side of Jordan in Jericho, to the east.

bbe@Joshua:13:33 @But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no heritage: the Lord, the God of Israel, is their heritage, as he said to them.

bbe@Joshua:14:1 @And these are the heritages which the children of Israel took in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, gave out to them;

bbe@Joshua:14:2 @Their heritage by the Lord's decision, as he gave orders by Moses, for the nine tribes and the half-tribe.

bbe@Joshua:14:3 @For Moses had given their heritage to the two tribes and the half-tribe on the other side of Jordan, but to the Levites he gave no heritage among them.

bbe@Joshua:14:8 @My brothers, however, who went up with me, made the heart of the people like water: but I was true to the Lord with all my heart.

bbe@Joshua:14:9 @And on that day Moses took an oath, saying, Truly the land where your feet have been placed will become a heritage for you and your children for ever, because you have been true to the Lord your God with all your heart.

bbe@Joshua:14:12 @So now, give me this hill-country named by the Lord at that time; for you had an account of it then, how the Anakim were there, and great walled towns: it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to take their land, as the Lord said.

bbe@Joshua:14:13 @And Joshua gave him his blessing; and he gave Hebron to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, for his heritage.

bbe@Joshua:14:14 @So Hebron became the heritage of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, to this day, because with all his heart he was true to the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@Joshua:15:3 @From there it goes south of the slope up to Akrabbim, and on to Zin, then south past Kadesh-barnea, and on by Hezron and up to Addar, turning in the direction of Karka:

bbe@Joshua:15:13 @And to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, he gave a part among the children of Judah, as the Lord had given orders to Joshua, that is, Kiriath-arba, named after Arba, the father of Anak which is Hebron.

bbe@Joshua:15:14 @And the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the children of Anak, were forced out from there by Caleb.

bbe@Joshua:15:15 @From there he went up against the people of Debir: (now the name of Debir before that was Kiriath-sepher.)

bbe@Joshua:15:16 @And Caleb said, I will give Achsah, my daughter, as wife to the man who overcomes Kiriath-sepher and takes it.

bbe@Joshua:15:17 @And Othniel, the son of Kenaz, Caleb's brother, took it: so he gave him his daughter Achsah for his wife.

bbe@Joshua:15:18 @Now when she came to him, he put into her mind the idea of requesting a field from her father: and she got down from her ass; and Caleb said to her, What is it?

bbe@Joshua:15:20 @This is the heritage of the tribe of Judah, by their families.

bbe@Joshua:15:42 @Libnah, and Ether, and Ashan;

bbe@Joshua:15:45 @Ekron, with her daughter-towns and her unwalled places;

bbe@Joshua:15:47 @Ashdod, with her daughter-towns and her unwalled places; Gaza, with her daughter-towns and her unwalled places, to the stream of Egypt, with the Great Sea as a limit.

bbe@Joshua:16:4 @And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their heritage.

bbe@Joshua:16:5 @And the limit of the land of the children of Ephraim by their families was marked out in this way: the limit of their heritage to the east was Ataroth-addar, to Beth-horon the higher;

bbe@Joshua:16:8 @From Tappuah the line goes on to the west to the river of Kanah; ending at the sea. This is the heritage of the children of Ephraim by their families;

bbe@Joshua:16:9 @Together with the towns marked out for the children of Ephraim in the heritage of Manasseh, all the towns with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:17:1 @And this was the part marked out for the tribe of Manasseh, because he was the oldest son of Joseph. As for Machir, the oldest son of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war he had Gilead and Bashan.

bbe@Joshua:17:2 @And as for the rest of the children of Manasseh, their heritage was given to them by families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these were the male children of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, by their families.

bbe@Joshua:17:3 @But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but only daughters; and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

bbe@Joshua:17:4 @And they came before Eleazar the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and before the chiefs, saying, The Lord gave orders to Moses to give us a heritage among our brothers: so in agreement with the orders of the Lord he gave them a heritage among their father's brothers.

bbe@Joshua:17:5 @And ten parts were given to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of Jordan;

bbe@Joshua:17:6 @Because the daughters of Manasseh had a heritage among his sons, and the land of Gilead was the property of the other sons of Manasseh.

bbe@Joshua:17:7 @And the limit of Manasseh's land was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem; the line goes on to the right hand, to the people of En-tappuah.

bbe@Joshua:17:10 @To the south it is Ephraim's, and to the north it is Manasseh's, and the sea is his limit; and they are touching Asher on the north, and Issachar on the east.

bbe@Joshua:17:11 @In Issachar and Asher, Manasseh had Beth-shean and its daughter-towns, and Ibleam and its daughter-towns, and the people of Dor and its daughter-towns, and the people of En-dor and its daughter-towns, and the people of Taanach and its daughter-towns, and the people of Megiddo and its daughter-towns, that is, the three hills.

bbe@Joshua:17:14 @Then the children of Joseph said to Joshua, Why have you given me only one part and one stretch of land for my heritage? For through the blessing given to me by the Lord up to now, I am a great people.

bbe@Joshua:17:15 @Then Joshua said to them, If you are such a great people, go up into the woodlands, clearing a place there for yourselves in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim, if the hill-country of Ephraim is not wide enough for you.

bbe@Joshua:18:1 @And all the meeting of the children of Israel came together at Shiloh and put up the Tent of meeting there: and the land was crushed before them.

bbe@Joshua:18:2 @But there were still seven tribes among the children of Israel who had not taken up their heritage.

bbe@Joshua:18:3 @Then Joshua said to the children of Israel, Why are you so slow to go in and take up your heritage in the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you?

bbe@Joshua:18:4 @Take from among you three men from every tribe; and I will send them to go through the land and make a record of it for distribution as their heritage; then let them come back to me.

bbe@Joshua:18:6 @And you are to have the land marked out in seven parts, and come back to me with the record; and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord our God.

bbe@Joshua:18:7 @For the Levites have no part among you; to be the Lord's priests is their heritage; and Gad and Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh have had their heritage on the east side of Jordan, given to them by Moses, the servant of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:18:8 @So the men got up and went; and Joshua gave orders to those who went, to make a record of the land, saying, Go up and down through the land, and make a record of it and come back here to me, and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord in Shiloh.

bbe@Joshua:18:11 @And the first heritage came out for the tribe of Benjamin by their families: and the limit of their heritage went between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

bbe@Joshua:18:13 @And from there the line goes south to Luz, to the side of Luz (which is Beth-el), then down to Ataroth-addar, by the mountain to the south of Beth-horon the lower.

bbe@Joshua:18:16 @And the line goes down to the farthest part of the mountain facing the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is on the north of the valley of Rephaim: from there it goes down to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite on the south as far as En-rogel;

bbe@Joshua:18:20 @And the limit of the east part is the Jordan. This is the heritage of the children of Benjamin, marked out for their families by these limits on all sides.

bbe@Joshua:18:28 @And Zela, Eleph and the Jebusite (which is Jerusalem), Gibeath and Kiriath; fourteen towns with their unwalled places. This is the heritage of the children of Benjamin by their families.

bbe@Joshua:19:1 @And the second heritage came out for the tribe of Simeon by their families; and their heritage was in the middle of the heritage of the children of Judah.

bbe@Joshua:19:2 @And they had for their heritage Beer-sheba and Shema and Moladah

bbe@Joshua:19:7 @Ain, Rimmon, and Ether and Ashan; four towns with their unwalled places;

bbe@Joshua:19:8 @And all the unwalled places round about these towns as far as Baalath-beer-ramah to the south. This is the heritage of the tribe of Simeon by their families.

bbe@Joshua:19:9 @The heritage of Simeon was taken out of Judah's stretch of land, for Judah's part was more than they had need of, so the heritage of the children of Simeon was inside their heritage.

bbe@Joshua:19:10 @And the third heritage came out for Zebulun by their families; the limit of their heritage was as far as Sarid;

bbe@Joshua:19:13 @And from there it goes on east to Gath-hepher, to Eth-kazin; ending at Rimmon which goes as far as Neah;

bbe@Joshua:19:16 @This is the heritage of the children of Zebulun by their families, these towns with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:19:17 @For Issachar the fourth heritage came out, for the children of Issachar by their families;

bbe@Joshua:19:23 @This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of Issachar by their families, these towns with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:19:24 @And the fifth heritage came out for the tribe of Asher by their families.

bbe@Joshua:19:31 @This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of Asher by their families, these towns with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:19:32 @For the children of Naphtali the sixth heritage came out, for the children of Naphtali by their families;

bbe@Joshua:19:34 @And turning west to Aznoth-tabor, the limit goes out from there to Hukkok, stretching to Zebulun on the south, and Asher on the west, and Judah at Jordan on the east.

bbe@Joshua:19:39 @This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of Naphtali by their families, these towns with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:19:40 @For the tribe of Dan by their families the seventh heritage came out;

bbe@Joshua:19:41 @And the limit of their heritage was Zorah and Eshtaol and Ir-shemesh

bbe@Joshua:19:47 @(But the limit of the children of Dan was not wide enough for them; so the children of Dan went up and made war on Leshem and took it, putting it to the sword without mercy, and they took it for their heritage and made a place for themselves there, giving it the name of Leshem-dan, after the name of their father, Dan.)

bbe@Joshua:19:48 @This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of Dan by their families, these towns with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:19:49 @So the distribution of the land and its limits was complete; and the children of Israel gave Joshua, the son of Nun, a heritage among them;

bbe@Joshua:19:50 @By the orders of the Lord they gave him the town for which he made request, Timnath-serah in the hill-country of Ephraim: there, after building the town, he made his living-place.

bbe@Joshua:19:51 @These are the heritages which Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of families of the tribes of the children of Israel gave out at Shiloh, by the decision of the Lord, at the door of the Tent of meeting. So the distribution of the land was complete.

bbe@Joshua:20:3 @So that any man who in error and without design has taken the life of another, may go in flight to them: and they will be safe places for you from him who has the right of punishment for blood.

bbe@Joshua:20:4 @And if anyone goes in flight to one of those towns, and comes into the public place of the town, and puts his cause before the responsible men of the town, they will take him into the town and give him a place among them where he may be safe.

bbe@Joshua:20:9 @These were the towns marked out for all the children of Israel and for the man from a strange country living among them, so that anyone causing the death of another in error, might go in flight there, and not be put to death by him who has the right of punishment for blood till he had come before the meeting of the people.

bbe@Joshua:21:3 @And the children of Israel out of their heritage gave to the Levites these towns with their grass-lands, by the order of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:21:4 @And the heritage came out for the families of the Kohathites: the children of Aaron the priest, who were of the Levites, were given thirteen towns from the tribes of Judah, Simeon, and Benjamin.

bbe@Joshua:21:6 @The children of Gershon by their families were given thirteen towns from the tribes of Issachar and Asher and Naphtali and the half-tribe of Manasseh which was in Bashan.

bbe@Joshua:21:9 @From the tribes of the children of Judah and the children of Simeon they gave these towns, listed here by name:

bbe@Joshua:21:11 @They gave them Kiriath-arba, the town of Arba, the father of Anak, (which is Hebron) in the hill-country of Judah, with its grass-lands.

bbe@Joshua:21:13 @And to the children of Aaron the priest they gave Hebron with its grass-lands, the town where the taker of life might be safe, and Libnah with its grass-lands;

bbe@Joshua:21:21 @And they gave them Shechem with its grass-lands in the hill-country of Ephraim, the town where the taker of life might be safe, and Gezer with its grass-lands;

bbe@Joshua:21:27 @And to the children of Gershon, of the families of the Levites, they gave from the half-tribe of Manasseh, Golan in Bashan with its grass-lands, the town where the taker of life might be safe, and Ashtaroth with its grass-lands, two towns.

bbe@Joshua:21:30 @And from the tribe of Asher, Mishal and Abdon, with their grass-lands:

bbe@Joshua:21:32 @And from the tribe of Naphtali, Kedesh in Galilee with its grass-lands, the town where the taker of life might be safe, and Hammoth-dor and Kartan with their grass-lands, three towns.

bbe@Joshua:21:38 @And from the tribe of Gad, Ramoth in Gilead, the town where the taker of life might be safe, and Mahanaim with their grass-lands;

bbe@Joshua:21:40 @All these towns were given to the children of Merari by their families, that is, the rest of the families of the Levites; and their heritage was twelve towns.

bbe@Joshua:21:41 @All the towns of the Levites, among the heritage of the children of Israel, were forty-eight towns with their grass-lands.

bbe@Joshua:21:43 @So the Lord gave to Israel all the land which he gave by oath to their fathers; so it became their heritage and their living-place.

bbe@Joshua:21:44 @And the Lord gave them peace on every side, as he had said to their fathers: all those who were against them gave way before them, for the Lord gave them all up into their hands.

bbe@Joshua:22:3 @You have now been with your brothers for a long time; till this day you have been doing the orders of the Lord your God.

bbe@Joshua:22:4 @And now the Lord your God has given your brothers rest, as he said: so now you may go back to your tents, to the land of your heritage, which Moses, the Lord's servant, gave to you on the other side of Jordan.

bbe@Joshua:22:7 @Now to the one half of the tribe of Manasseh, Moses had given a heritage in Bashan; but to the other half, Joshua gave a heritage among their brothers on the west side of Jordan. Now when Joshua sent them away to their tents, he gave them his blessing,

bbe@Joshua:22:8 @And said to them, Go back with much wealth to your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver and gold and brass and iron, and with a very great store of clothing; give your brothers a part of the goods taken in the war.

bbe@Joshua:22:9 @So Reuben and Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh went back, parting from the children of Israel at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, to go to the land of Gilead, to the land of their heritage which had been given to them by the Lord's order to Moses.

bbe@Joshua:22:10 @Now when they came to the country by Jordan in the land of Canaan, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh put up there, by Jordan, a great altar, seen from far.

bbe@Joshua:22:12 @Then all the meeting of the children of Israel, hearing this, came together at Shiloh to go up against them to war.

bbe@Joshua:22:19 @But if the land you now have is unclean, come over into the Lord's land where his House is, and take up your heritage among us: but do not be false to the Lord and to us by building yourselves an altar in addition to the altar of the Lord our God.

bbe@Joshua:22:28 @For we said to ourselves, If they say this to us or to future generations, then we will say, See this copy of the Lord's altar which our fathers made, not for burned offerings or offerings of beasts, but for a witness between us and you.

bbe@Joshua:23:4 @Now I have given to you, as the heritage of your tribes, all these nations which are still in the land, together with those cut off by me, from Jordan as far as the Great Sea on the west.

bbe@Joshua:23:5 @The Lord your God will send them away by force, driving them out before you; and you are to take their land for your heritage, as the Lord your God said to you.

bbe@Joshua:23:16 @If the agreement of the Lord your God, which was given to you by his orders, is broken, and you become the servants of other gods and give them worship, then the wrath of the Lord will be burning against you, and you will quickly be cut off from the good land which he has given you.

bbe@Joshua:24:1 @Then Joshua got all the tribes of Israel together at Shechem; and he sent for the responsible men of Israel and their chiefs and their judges and their overseers; and they took their place before God.

bbe@Joshua:24:2 @And Joshua said to all the people, These are the words of the Lord, the God of Israel: In the past your fathers, Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nahor, were living on the other side of the River: and they were worshipping other gods.

bbe@Joshua:24:3 @And I took your father Abraham from the other side of the River, guiding him through all the land of Canaan; I made his offspring great in number, and gave him Isaac.

bbe@Joshua:24:4 @And to Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau: to Esau I gave Mount Seir, as his heritage; but Jacob and his children went down to Egypt.

bbe@Joshua:24:6 @I took your fathers out of Egypt: and you came to the Red Sea; and the Egyptians came after your fathers to the Red Sea, with their war-carriages and their horsemen.

bbe@Joshua:24:8 @And I took you into the lands of the Amorites on the other side of Jordan; and they made war on you, and I gave them into your hands and you took their land; and I sent destruction on them before you.

bbe@Joshua:24:14 @So now, go in fear of the Lord, and be his servants with true hearts: put away the gods worshipped by your fathers across the River and in Egypt, and be servants of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:24:15 @And if it seems evil to you to be the servants of the Lord, make the decision this day whose servants you will be: of the gods whose servants your fathers were across the River, or of the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living: but I and my house will be the servants of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:24:16 @Then the people in answer said, Never will we give up the Lord to be the servants of other gods;

bbe@Joshua:24:17 @For it is the Lord our God who has taken us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, out of the prison-house, and who did all those great signs before our eyes, and kept us safe on all our journeys, and among all the peoples through whom we went:

bbe@Joshua:24:19 @And Joshua said to the people, You are not able to be the servants of the Lord, for he is a holy God, a God who will not let his honour be given to another: he will have no mercy on your wrongdoing or your sins.

bbe@Joshua:24:26 @And Joshua put these words on record, writing them in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and put it up there under the oak-tree which was in the holy place of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:24:28 @Then Joshua let the people go away, every man to his heritage.

bbe@Joshua:24:30 @And they put his body in the earth in the land of his heritage in Timnath-serah, in the hill-country of Ephraim, to the north of Mount Gaash.

bbe@Joshua:24:32 @And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel had taken up from Egypt, they put in the earth in Shechem, in the property which Jacob had got from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem, for a hundred shekels: and they became the heritage of the children of Joseph.

bbe@Judges:1:3 @Then Judah said to Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my heritage, so that we may make war against the Canaanites; and I will then go with you into your heritage. So Simeon went with him.

bbe@Judges:1:7 @And Adoni-zedek said, Seventy kings, whose thumbs and great toes had been cut off, got broken meat under my table: as I have done, so has God done to me in full. And they took him to Jerusalem, and he came to his end there.

bbe@Judges:1:11 @And from there he went up against the people of Debir. (Now the name of Debir in earlier times was Kiriath-sepher.)

bbe@Judges:1:12 @And Caleb said, I will give Achsah, my daughter, as wife to the man who overcomes Kiriath-sepher and takes it.

bbe@Judges:1:13 @And Othniel, the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, took it; so he gave him his daughter Achsah for his wife.

bbe@Judges:1:14 @Now when she came to him, he put into her mind the idea of requesting a field from her father: and she got down from her ass; and Caleb said to her, What is it?

bbe@Judges:1:15 @And she said to him, Give me a blessing; because you have put me in a dry south-land, now give me springs of water. So Caleb gave her the higher spring and the lower spring.

bbe@Judges:1:16 @Now Hobab the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, had come up out of the town of palm-trees, with the children of Judah, into the waste land of Arad; and he went and was living among the Amalekites;

bbe@Judges:1:17 @And Judah went with Simeon, his brother, and overcame the Canaanites living in Zephath, and put it under the curse; and he gave the town the name of Hormah.

bbe@Judges:1:19 @And the Lord was with Judah; and he took the hill-country for his heritage; but he was unable to make the people of the valley go out, for they had war-carriages of iron.

bbe@Judges:1:20 @And they gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had said; and he took the land of the three sons of Anak, driving them out from there.

bbe@Judges:1:24 @And the watchers saw a man coming out of the town, and said to him, If you will make clear to us the way into the town, we will be kind to you.

bbe@Judges:1:26 @And he went into the land of the Hittites, building a town there and naming it Luz: which is its name to this day.

bbe@Judges:1:31 @And Asher did not take the land of the people of Acco, or Zidon, or Ahlab, or Achzib, or Helbah, or Aphik, or Rehob, driving them out;

bbe@Judges:1:32 @But the Asherites went on living among the Canaanites, the people of the land, without driving them out.

bbe@Judges:1:35 @For the Amorites would go on living in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim; but the children of Joseph became stronger than they, and put them to forced work.

bbe@Judges:2:1 @Now the angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said, *** I took you out of Egypt, guiding you into the land which I gave by an oath to your fathers; and I said, My agreement with you will never be broken by me:

bbe@Judges:2:5 @And they gave that place the name of Bochim, and made offerings there to the Lord.

bbe@Judges:2:6 @And Joshua let the people go away, and the children of Israel went, every man to his heritage, to take the land for themselves.

bbe@Judges:2:9 @And they put his body in the earth in the land of his heritage in Timnath-heres, in the hill-country of Ephraim to the north of Mount Gaash.

bbe@Judges:2:10 @And in time death overtook all that generation; and another generation came after them, having no knowledge of the Lord or of the things which he had done for Israel.

bbe@Judges:2:12 @And they gave up the Lord, the God of their fathers, who had taken them out of the land of Egypt, and went after other gods, the gods of the peoples round about them, worshipping them and moving the Lord to wrath.

bbe@Judges:2:15 @Wherever they went out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had taken his oath it would be; and things became very hard for them.

bbe@Judges:2:17 @But still they would not give ear to their judges, but went after other gods and gave them worship; quickly turning from the way in which their fathers had gone, keeping the orders of the Lord; but they did not do so.

bbe@Judges:2:19 @But whenever the judge was dead, they went back and did more evil than their fathers, going after other gods, to be their servants and their worshippers; giving up nothing of their sins and their hard-hearted ways.

bbe@Judges:2:20 @And the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he said, Because this nation has not been true to my agreement which I made with their fathers, and has not given ear to my voice;

bbe@Judges:2:22 @In order to put Israel to the test, and see if they will keep the way of the Lord, walking in it as their fathers did, or not.

bbe@Judges:3:3 @The five chiefs of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites and the Zidonians and the Hivites living in Mount Lebanon, from the mountain Baal-hermon as far as Hamath:

bbe@Judges:3:4 @For the purpose of testing Israel by them, to see if they would give ear to the orders of the Lord, which he had given to their fathers by the hand of Moses.

bbe@Judges:3:9 @And when the children of Israel made prayer to the Lord, he gave them a saviour, Othniel, the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.

bbe@Judges:3:13 @And Eglon got together the people of Ammon and Amalek, and they went and overcame Israel and took the town of palm-trees.

bbe@Judges:3:19 @But he himself, turning back from the stone images at Gilgal, said, I have something to say to you in secret, O king. And he said, Let there be quiet. Then all those who were waiting before him went out.

bbe@Judges:3:27 @And when he came there, he had a horn sounded in the hill-country of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel went down with him from the hill-country, and he at their head.

bbe@Judges:3:31 @And after him came Shamgar, the son of Anath, who put to death six hundred Philistines with an ox-stick; and he was another saviour of Israel.

bbe@Judges:4:5 @(And she had her seat under the palm-tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-el in the hill-country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her to be judged.)

bbe@Judges:4:7 @And I will make Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his war-carriages and his forces, come against you at the river Kishon, where I will give him into your hands.

bbe@Judges:4:8 @And Barak said to her, If you will go with me then I will go; but if you will not go with me I will not go.

bbe@Judges:4:11 @Now Heber the Kenite, separating himself from the rest of the Kenites, from the children of Hobab, the brother-in-law of Moses, had put up his tent as far away as the oak-tree in Zaanannim, by Kedesh.

bbe@Judges:4:13 @So Sisera got together all his war-carriages, nine hundred war-carriages of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles as far as the river Kishon.

bbe@Judges:4:17 @But Sisera went in flight on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin, king of Hazor, and the family of Heber the Kenite.

bbe@Judges:4:18 @And Jael went out to Sisera, and said to him, Come in, my lord, come in to me without fear. So he went into her tent, and she put a cover over him.

bbe@Judges:4:19 @Then he said to her, Give me now a little water, for I have need of a drink. And opening a skin of milk, she gave him drink, and put the cover over him again.

bbe@Judges:4:20 @And he said to her, Take your place at the door of the tent, and if anyone comes and says to you, Is there any man here, say, No.

bbe@Judges:4:22 @Then Jael went out, and meeting Barak going after Sisera, said to him, Come, and I will let you see the man you are searching for. So he came into her tent and saw, and there was Sisera stretched out dead with the tent-pin in his head.

bbe@Judges:5:7 @Country towns were no more in Israel, *** were no more, till you, Deborah, came up, till you came up as a mother in Israel.

bbe@Judges:5:8 @They had no one to make arms, there were no more armed men in the towns; was there a body-cover or a spear to be seen among forty thousand in Israel?

bbe@Judges:5:11 @Give ear to the women laughing by the water-springs; there they will give again the story of the upright acts of the Lord, all the upright acts of his arm in Israel.

bbe@Judges:5:15 @Your chiefs, Issachar, were with Deborah; and Naphtali was true to Barak; into the valley they went rushing out at his feet. In Reuben there were divisions, and great searchings of heart.

bbe@Judges:5:16 @Why did you keep quiet among the sheep, hearing nothing but the watchers piping to the flocks?

bbe@Judges:5:17 @Gilead was living over Jordan; and Dan was waiting in his ships; Asher kept in his place by the sea's edge, living by his inlets.

bbe@Judges:5:23 @A curse, a curse on Meroz! said the angel of the Lord. A bitter curse on her townspeople! Because they came not to the help of the Lord, to the help of the Lord among the strong ones.

bbe@Judges:5:26 @She put out her hand to the tent-pin, and her right hand to the workman's hammer; and she gave Sisera a blow, crushing his head, wounding and driving through his brow.

bbe@Judges:5:27 @Bent at her feet he went down, he was stretched out; bent at her feet he went down; where he was bent down, there he went down in death.

bbe@Judges:5:28 @Looking out from the window she gave a cry, the mother of Sisera was crying out through the window, Why is his carriage so long in coming? When will the noise of his wheels be sounding?

bbe@Judges:5:29 @Her wise women gave answer to her, yes, she made answer again to herself,

bbe@Judges:6:4 @And put their army in position against them; and they took all the produce of the earth as far as Gaza, till there was no food in Israel, or any sheep or oxen or asses.

bbe@Judges:6:11 @Now the angel of the Lord came and took his seat under the oak-tree in Ophrah, in the field of Joash the Abiezrite; and his son Gideon was crushing grain in the place where the grapes were crushed, so that the Midianites might not see it.

bbe@Judges:6:13 @Then Gideon said to him, O my lord, if the Lord is with us why has all this come on us? And where are all his works of power, of which our fathers have given us word, saying, Did not the Lord take us out of Egypt? But now he has given us up, handing us over to the power of Midian.

bbe@Judges:6:15 @And he said to him, O Lord, how may I be the saviour of Israel? See, my family is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house.

bbe@Judges:6:19 @Then Gideon went in and made ready a young goat, and with an ephah of meal he made unleavened cakes: he put the meat in a basket and the soup in which it had been cooked he put in a pot, and he took it out to him under the oak-tree and gave it to him there.

bbe@Judges:6:20 @And the angel of God said to him, Take the meat and the unleavened cakes and put them down on the rock over there, draining out the soup over them. And he did so.

bbe@Judges:6:24 @Then Gideon made an altar there to the Lord, and gave it the name Yahweh-shalom; to this day it is in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

bbe@Judges:6:25 @The same night the Lord said to him, Take ten men of your servants and an ox seven years old, and after pulling down the altar of Baal which is your father's, and cutting down the holy tree by its side,

bbe@Judges:6:27 @Then Gideon took ten of his servants and did as the Lord had said to him; but fearing to do it by day, because of his father's people and the men of the town, he did it by night.

bbe@Judges:6:28 @And the men of the town got up early in the morning, and they saw the altar of Baal broken down, and the holy tree which was by it cut down, and the ox offered on the altar which had been put up there.

bbe@Judges:6:29 @And they said to one another, Who has done this thing? And after searching with care, they said, Gideon, the son of Joash, has done this thing.

bbe@Judges:6:33 @Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the people of the east, banding themselves together, went over and put up their tents in the valley of Jezreel.

bbe@Judges:6:34 @But the spirit of the Lord came on Gideon; and at the sound of his horn all Abiezer came together after him.

bbe@Judges:6:35 @And he sent through all Manasseh, and they came after him; and he sent to Asher and Zebulun and Naphtali, and they came up and were joined to the others.

bbe@Judges:6:37 @See, I will put the wool of a sheep on the grain-floor; if there is dew on the wool only, while all the earth is dry, then I will be certain that it is your purpose to give Israel salvation by my hand as you have said.

bbe@Judges:6:40 @And that night God did so; for the wool was dry, and there was dew on all the earth round it.

bbe@Judges:7:3 @So now, let it be given out to the people that anyone who is shaking with fear is to go back from Mount Galud. So twenty-two thousand of the people went back, but there were still ten thousand.

bbe@Judges:7:4 @Then the Lord said to Gideon, There are still more people than is necessary; take them down to the water so that I may put them to the test for you there; then whoever I say is to go with you will go, and whoever I say is not to go will not go.

bbe@Judges:7:13 @When Gideon came there, a man was giving his friend an account of his dream, saying, See, I had a dream about a cake of barley bread which, falling into the tents of Midian, came on to the tent, overturning it so that it was stretched out flat on the earth.

bbe@Judges:7:22 @And the three hundred gave a loud note on their horns, and every man's sword was turned by the Lord against his brother all through the army; and the army went in flight as far as Beth-shittah in the direction of Zeredah, to the edge of Abel-meholah by Tabbath.

bbe@Judges:7:23 @And the men of Israel came together from Naphtali and from Asher and all Manasseh, and went after Midian.

bbe@Judges:7:24 @Then Gideon sent through all the hill-country of Ephraim saying, Come down against Midian, and keep the ways across Jordan before they come. So all the men of Ephraim, massing themselves together, kept the ways across Jordan.

bbe@Judges:8:8 @So he went up from there to Penuel and made the same request to the men of Penuel; but they gave him the same answer as the men of Succoth had given.

bbe@Judges:8:15 @So he came to the men of Succoth and said, Here are Zebah and Zalmunna, on account of whom you made sport of me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna even now in your hand, that we are to give bread to your army who are overcome with weariness?

bbe@Judges:8:18 @Then he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, Where are the men whom you put to death at Tabor? And they gave answer, As you are, so were they; every one of them was like a king's son

bbe@Judges:8:19 @And he said, They were my brothers, my mother's sons: by the life of the Lord, if you had kept them safe, I would not put you to death.

bbe@Judges:8:20 @Then he said to Jether, his oldest son, Up! Put them to death. But the boy did not take out his sword, fearing because he was still a boy.

bbe@Judges:8:27 @And Gideon made an ephod from them and put it up in his town Ophrah; and all Israel went after it there and were false to the Lord; and it became a cause of sin to Gideon and his house.

bbe@Judges:8:29 @And Jerubbaal, the son of Joash, went back to his house and was living there.

bbe@Judges:8:32 @And Gideon, the son of Joash, came to his end when he was very old, and his body was put in the resting-place of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

bbe@Judges:9:1 @Now Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, went to Shechem to his mother's family, and said to them and to all the family of his mother's father,

bbe@Judges:9:3 @So his mother's family said all this about him in the ears of all the townsmen of Shechem: and their hearts were turned to Abimelech, for they said, He is our brother.

bbe@Judges:9:5 @Then he went to his father's house at Ophrah, and put his brothers, the seventy sons of Jerubbaal, to death on the same stone; however, Jotham, the youngest, kept himself safe by going away to a secret place.

bbe@Judges:9:6 @And all the townsmen of Shechem and all Beth-millo came together and went and made Abimelech their king, by the oak of the pillar in Shechem.

bbe@Judges:9:17 @(For my father made war for you, and put his life in danger, and made you free from the hands of Midian;

bbe@Judges:9:18 @And you have gone against my father's family this day, and have put to death his sons, even seventy men on one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his servant-wife, king over the townsmen of Shechem because he is your brother;)

bbe@Judges:9:21 @Then Jotham straight away went in flight to Beer, and was living there for fear of his brother Abimelech.

bbe@Judges:9:24 @So that punishment for the violent attack made on the seventy sons of Jerubbaal, and for their blood, might come on Abimelech, their brother, who put them to death, and on the townsmen of Shechem who gave him their help in putting his brothers to death.

bbe@Judges:9:25 @And the townsmen of Shechem put secret watchers on the tops of the mountains, and they made attacks on all who went by on the road and took their goods; and word of this came to Abimelech.

bbe@Judges:9:26 @Then Gaal, the son of Ebed, came with his brothers, and went over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their faith in him.

bbe@Judges:9:28 @And Gaal, the son of Ebed, said, Who is Abimelech and who is Shechem, that we are to be his servants? Is it not right for the son of Jerubbaal and Zebul his captain to be servants to the men of Hamor, the father of Shechem? But why are we to be his servants?

bbe@Judges:9:31 @And he sent to Abimelech at Arumah, saying, See, Gaal, the son of Ebed, and his brothers have come to Shechem, and they are working up the town against you.

bbe@Judges:9:35 @And Gaal, the son of Ebed, went out, and took his place at the doorway into the town; then Abimelech and his people got up from the place where they had been waiting.

bbe@Judges:9:38 @Then Zebul said to him, Now where is your loud talk when you said, Who is Abimelech that we are to be his servants? Is this not the people whom you were rating so low? Go out now, and make war on them.

bbe@Judges:9:41 @Then Abimelech went back to Arumah; and Zebul sent Gaal and his brothers away and would not let them go on living in Shechem.

bbe@Judges:9:44 @And Abimelech with his band made a rush, and took up their position at the doorway into the town; and the other two bands made a rush on all those who were in the fields, and overcame them.

bbe@Judges:9:47 @And word was given to Abimelech that all the men of the tower of Shechem were there together.

bbe@Judges:9:51 @But in the middle of the town there was a strong tower, to which all the men and women of the town went in flight and, shutting themselves in, went up to the roof of the tower.

bbe@Judges:9:56 @In this way Abimelech was rewarded by God for the evil he had done to his father in putting his seventy brothers to death;

bbe@Judges:10:8 @And that year the children of Israel were crushed under their yoke; for eighteen years all the children of Israel on the other side of Jordan, in the land of the Amorites which is in Gilead, were cruelly crushed down.

bbe@Judges:10:13 @But, for all this, you have given me up and have been servants to other gods: so I will be your saviour no longer.

bbe@Judges:10:17 @Then the children of Ammon came together and put their army in position in Gilead. And the children of Israel came together and put their army in position in Mizpah.

bbe@Judges:10:18 @And the people of Israel said to one another, Who will be the first to make an attack on the children of Ammon? We will make him head over all Gilead.

bbe@Judges:11:1 @Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a great man of war; he was the son of a loose woman, and Gilead was his father.

bbe@Judges:11:2 @And Gilead's wife gave birth to sons, and when her sons became men, they sent Jephthah away, saying, You have no part in the heritage of our father's house, for you are the son of another woman.

bbe@Judges:11:3 @So Jephthah went in flight from his brothers and was living in the land of Tob, where a number of good-for-nothing men, joining Jephthah, went out with him on his undertakings.

bbe@Judges:11:7 @But Jephthah said to the responsible men of Gilead, Did you not, in your hate for me, send me away from my father's house? Why do you come to me now when you are in trouble?

bbe@Judges:11:18 @Then he went on through the waste land and round the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and put up their tents on the other side of the Arnon; they did not come inside the limit of Moab, for the Arnon was the limit of Moab.

bbe@Judges:11:20 @But Sihon would not give way and let Israel go through his land; and Sihon got together all his people, and put his army in position in Jahaz, and made war on Israel.

bbe@Judges:11:33 @And he made an attack on them from Aroer all the way to Minnith, overrunning twenty towns, as far as Abel-cheramim, and put great numbers to the sword. So the children of Ammon were crushed before the children of Israel.

bbe@Judges:11:34 @Then Jephthah came back to his house in Mizpah, and his daughter came out, meeting him on his way with music and with dances; she was his only child; he had no other sons or daughters.

bbe@Judges:11:35 @And when he saw her he was overcome with grief, and said, Ah! my daughter! I am crushed with sorrow, and it is you who are the chief cause of my trouble; for I have made an oath to the Lord and I may not take it back.

bbe@Judges:11:36 @And she said to him, My father, you have made an oath to the Lord; do then to me whatever you have said; for the Lord has sent a full reward on your haters, on the children of Ammon.

bbe@Judges:11:37 @Then she said to her father, Only do this for me: let me have two months to go away into the mountains with my friends, weeping for my sad fate.

bbe@Judges:11:38 @And he said, Go then. So he sent her away for two months; and she went with her friends to the mountains, weeping for her sad fate.

bbe@Judges:11:39 @And at the end of two months she went back to her father, who did with her as he had said in his oath: and she had never been touched by a man. So it became a rule in Israel,

bbe@Judges:12:1 @Now the men of Ephraim came together and took up arms and went over to Zaphon; and they said to Jephthah, Why did you go over to make war against the children of Ammon without sending for us to go with you? Now we will put your house on fire over you.

bbe@Judges:12:3 @So when I saw that there was no help to be had from you, I put my life in my hand and went over against the children of Ammon, and the Lord gave them into my hands: why then have you come up to me this day to make war on me?

bbe@Judges:12:4 @Then Jephthah got together all the men of Gilead and made war on Ephraim; and the men of Gilead overcame Ephraim.

bbe@Judges:12:9 @He had thirty sons, and thirty daughters whom he sent to other places, and he got thirty wives from other places for his sons. And he was judge of Israel for seven years.

bbe@Judges:13:2 @Now there was a certain man of Zorah of the family of the Danites, and his name was Manoah; and his wife had never given birth to a child.

bbe@Judges:13:3 @And the angel of the Lord came to the woman, and said to her, See now! though you have never given birth to children, you will be with child and give birth to a son.

bbe@Judges:13:6 @Then the woman came in, and said to her husband, A man came to me, and his form was like the form of a god, causing great fear; I put no question to him about where he came from, and he did not give me his name;

bbe@Judges:13:9 @And God gave ear to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came to the woman again when she was seated in the field; but her husband Manoah was not with her.

bbe@Judges:13:10 @So the woman, running quickly, gave her husband the news, saying, I have seen the man who came to me the other day.

bbe@Judges:13:13 @And the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, Let the woman take note of what I have said to her.

bbe@Judges:13:14 @She is to have nothing which comes from the vine for her food, and let her take no wine or strong drink or anything which is unclean; let her take care to do all I have given her orders to do.

bbe@Judges:14:2 @And when he came back he said to his father and mother, I have seen a woman in Timnah, of the daughters of the Philistines: get her now for me for my wife.

bbe@Judges:14:3 @Then his father and mother said to him, Is there no woman among the daughters of your relations or among all my people, that you have to go for your wife to the Philistines, who are without circumcision? But Samson said to his father, Get her for me, for she is pleasing to me.

bbe@Judges:14:4 @Now his father and mother had no knowledge that this was the purpose of the Lord, who had the destruction of the Philistines in mind. Now the Philistines at that time were ruling over Israel.

bbe@Judges:14:5 @Then Samson went down to Timnah (and his father and his mother,) and came to the vine-gardens of Timnah; and a young lion came rushing out at him.

bbe@Judges:14:6 @And the spirit of the Lord came on him with power, and, unarmed as he was, pulling the lion in two as one might do to a young goat, he put him to death; (but he said nothing to his father and mother of what he had done.)

bbe@Judges:14:8 @Then after a time he went back to take her; and turning from the road to see the dead body of the lion, he saw a mass of bees in the body of the lion, and honey there.

bbe@Judges:14:9 @And he took the honey in his hand, and went on, tasting it on the way; and when he came to his father and mother he gave some to them; but did not say that he had taken the honey from the body of the lion.

bbe@Judges:14:10 @Then Samson went down to the woman, and made a feast there, as was the way among young men.

bbe@Judges:14:15 @So on the fourth day they said to Samson's wife, Get from your husband the answer to his question by some trick or other, or we will have you and your father's house burned with fire; did you get us here to take all we have?

bbe@Judges:14:16 @Then Samson's wife, weeping over him, said, Truly you have no love for me but only hate; you have put a hard question to the children of my people and have not given me the answer. And he said to her, See, I have not given the answer even to my father or my mother; am I to give it to you?

bbe@Judges:14:17 @And all the seven days of the feast she went on weeping over him; and on the seventh day he gave her the answer, because she gave him no peace; and she sent word of it to the children of her people

bbe@Judges:14:19 @And the spirit of the Lord came rushing on him, and he went down to Ashkelon and, attacking thirty men there, took their clothing from them, and gave it to the men who had given the answer to his hard question. Then, full of wrath, he went back to his father's house.

bbe@Judges:15:1 @Now a short time after, at the time of the grain-cutting, Samson, taking with him a young goat, went to see his wife; and he said, I will go in to my wife into the bride's room. But her father would not let him go in.

bbe@Judges:15:2 @And her father said, It seemed to me that you had only hate for her; so I gave her to your friend: but is not her younger sister fairer than she? so please take her in place of the other.

bbe@Judges:15:6 @Then the Philistines said, Who has done this? And they said, Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he took his wife and gave her to his friend. So the Philistines came up and had her and her father's house burned.

bbe@Judges:16:1 @Now Samson went to Gaza, and there he saw a loose woman and went in to her.

bbe@Judges:16:2 @And it was said to the Gazites, Samson is here. So they went round, watching for him all day at the doorway of the town, but at night they kept quiet, saying, When daylight comes we will put him to death.

bbe@Judges:16:3 @And Samson was there till the middle of the night; then he got up, and took a grip on the doors of the town, pulling them up, together with their two supports and their locks, and put them on his back and took them up to the top of the hill in front of Hebron.

bbe@Judges:16:5 @And the chiefs of the Philistines came up to her, and said to her, Make use of your power over him and see what is the secret of his great strength, and how we may get the better of him, and put bands on him, so that we may make him feeble; and every one of us will give you eleven hundred shekels of silver.

bbe@Judges:16:7 @And Samson said to her, If seven new bow-cords which have never been made dry are knotted round me, I will become feeble and will be like any other man.

bbe@Judges:16:8 @So the chiefs of the Philistines gave her seven new bow-cords which had never been made dry, and she had them tightly knotted round him.

bbe@Judges:16:11 @And he said to her, If they only put round me new thick cords which have never been used, then I will become feeble and will be like any other man.

bbe@Judges:16:13 @Then Delilah said to Samson, Up to now you have made sport of me with false words; now say truly, how may you be put in bands? And he said to her, If you get the seven twists of my hair worked into the cloth you are making and fixed with the pin, I will become feeble and will be like any other man.

bbe@Judges:16:14 @So while he was sleeping she got the seven twists of his hair worked into her cloth and fixed with the pin, and said to him, The Philistines are on you, Samson. Then awaking from his sleep, he got up quickly, pulling up cloth and machine together.

bbe@Judges:16:17 @And opening all his heart to her, he said to her, My head has never been touched by a blade, for I have been separate to God from the day of my birth: if my hair is cut off, then my strength will go from me and I will become feeble, and will be like any other man.

bbe@Judges:16:18 @And when Delilah saw that he had let her see into his heart, she sent word to the chiefs of the Philistines saying, Come up this time, for he has let out all his heart to me. Then the chiefs of the Philistines came to her, with the money in their hands.

bbe@Judges:16:19 @And she made him go to sleep on her knees; and she sent for a man and had his seven twists of hair cut off; and while it was being done he became feeble and his strength went from him.

bbe@Judges:16:20 @Then she said, The Philistines are on you, Samson. And awaking from his sleep, he said, I will go out as at other times, shaking myself free. But he was not conscious that the Lord had gone from him.

bbe@Judges:16:23 @And the chiefs of the Philistines came together to make a great offering to Dagon their god, and to be glad; for they said, Our god has given into our hands Samson our hater.

bbe@Judges:16:27 @Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and about three thousand men and women were on the roof, looking on while Samson made sport.

bbe@Judges:16:29 @Then Samson put his arms round the two middle pillars supporting the house, putting his weight on them, on one with his right hand and on the other with his left.

bbe@Judges:16:31 @Then his brothers and his father's people came down and took him up and put his body to rest in the earth between Zorah and Eshtaol in the resting-place of Manoah his father. And he had been judge of Israel for twenty years.

bbe@Judges:17:1 @Now there was a man of the hill-country of Ephraim named Micah.

bbe@Judges:17:2 @And he said to his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver which were taken from you, about which you took an oath and said in my hearing, I have given this silver to the Lord from my hand for myself, to make a pictured image and a metal image: see, I have the silver, for I took it: so now I will give it back to you. And his mother said, May the blessing of the Lord be on my son.

bbe@Judges:17:3 @And he gave back the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, and his mother said, I have made the silver holy to the Lord from me for my son, to make a pictured image and a metal image.

bbe@Judges:17:4 @So he gave the silver back to his mother. Then his mother took two hundred shekels of silver and gave them to a metal-worker who made a pictured image and a metal image from them: and it was in the house of Micah.

bbe@Judges:17:6 @In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did as seemed right to him.

bbe@Judges:17:7 @Now there was a young man living in Beth-lehem-judah, of the family of Judah and a Levite, who was not a townsman of the place.

bbe@Judges:17:8 @And he went away from the town of Beth-lehem-judah, looking for somewhere to make his living-place; and on his journey he came to the hill-country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah.

bbe@Judges:17:9 @And Micah said to him, Where do you come from? And he said to him, I am a Levite from Beth-lehem-judah, and I am looking for a living-place.

bbe@Judges:17:10 @Then Micah said to him, Make your living-place with me, and be a father and a priest to me, and I will give you ten shekels of silver a year and your clothing and food.

bbe@Judges:18:1 @In those days there was no king in Israel, and in those days the Danites were looking for a heritage for themselves, to be their living-place; for up to that time no distribution of land had been made to them among the tribes of Israel.

bbe@Judges:18:2 @So the children of Dan sent five men from among their number, strong men, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, to take a look at the land and make a search through it; and they said to them, Go and make a search through the land; and they came to the hill-country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, where they made a stop for the night.

bbe@Judges:18:3 @When they were near the house of Micah, hearing a voice which was not strange to them, that of the young Levite, they went out of their road to his place, and said to him, How did you come here? and what are you doing in this place? and why are you here?

bbe@Judges:18:7 @Then the five men went on their way and came to Laish and saw the people who were there, living without thought of danger, like the Zidonians, quiet and safe; for they had everything on earth for their needs, and they were far from the Zidonians and had no business with Aram.

bbe@Judges:18:8 @So they came back to their brothers in Zorah and Eshtaol, and their brothers said to them, What news have you?

bbe@Judges:18:9 @And they said, Up! and let us go against Laish; for we have seen the land, and it is very good: why are you doing nothing? Do not be slow to go in and take the land for your heritage.

bbe@Judges:18:10 @When you come there you will come to a people living without thought of danger; and the land is wide, and God has given it into your hands: a place where there is everything on earth for man's needs

bbe@Judges:18:13 @From there they went on to the hill-country of Ephraim and came to the house of Micah.

bbe@Judges:18:14 @Then the five men who had gone to make a search through the country of Laish, said to their brothers, Have you knowledge that in these houses there is an ephod and family gods and a pictured image and a metal image? So now you see what to do.

bbe@Judges:18:19 @And they said to him, Be quiet; say nothing, and come with us and be our father and priest; is it better for you to be priest to one man's house or to be priest to a tribe and a family in Israel?

bbe@Judges:18:22 @When they had gone some way from the house of Micah, the men from the houses near Micah's house came together and overtook the children of Dan,

bbe@Judges:18:24 @And he said, You have taken my gods which I made, and my priest, and have gone away; what is there for me now? Why then do you say to me, What is your trouble?

bbe@Judges:18:29 @And they gave the town the name of Dan, after Dan their father, who was the son of Israel: though the town had been named Laish at first.

bbe@Judges:18:31 @And they put up for themselves the image which Micah had made, and it was there all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh.

bbe@Judges:19:1 @Now in those days, when there was no king in Israel, a certain Levite was living in the inmost parts of the hill-country of Ephraim, and he got for himself a servant-wife from Beth-lehem-judah.

bbe@Judges:19:2 @And his servant-wife was angry with him, and went away from him to her father's house at Beth-lehem-judah, and was there for four months.

bbe@Judges:19:3 @Then her husband got up and went after her, with the purpose of talking kindly to her, and taking her back with him; he had with him his young man and two asses: and she took him into her father's house, and her father, when he saw him, came forward to him with joy.

bbe@Judges:19:4 @And his father-in-law, the girl's father, kept him there for three days; and they had food and drink and took their rest there.

bbe@Judges:19:5 @Now on the fourth day they got up early in the morning and he made ready to go away; but the girl's father said to his son-in-law, Take a little food to keep up your strength, and then go on your way.

bbe@Judges:19:6 @So seating themselves they had food and drink, the two of them together; and the girl's father said to the man, If it is your pleasure, take your rest here tonight, and let your heart be glad.

bbe@Judges:19:7 @And the man got up to go away, but his father-in-law would not let him go, so he took his rest there again for the night.

bbe@Judges:19:8 @Then early on the morning of the fifth day he got up to go away; but the girl's father said, Keep up your strength; so the two of them had a meal, and the man and his woman and his servant did not go till after the middle of the day.

bbe@Judges:19:9 @And when they got up to go away, his father-in-law, the girl's father, said to him, Now evening is coming on, so do not go tonight; see, the day is almost gone; take your rest here and let your heart be glad, and tomorrow early, go on your way back to your house.

bbe@Judges:19:10 @But the man would not be kept there that night, and he got up and went away and came opposite to Jebus (which is Jerusalem); and he had with him the two asses, ready for travelling, and his woman

bbe@Judges:19:11 @When they got near Jebus the day was far gone; and the servant said to his master, Now let us go from our road into this town of the Jebusites and take our night's rest there.

bbe@Judges:19:15 @And they went off the road there with the purpose of stopping for the night in Gibeah: and he went in, seating himself in the street of the town, for no one took them into his house for the night.

bbe@Judges:19:17 @And when he saw the traveller in the street of the town, the old man said, Where are you going? and where do you come from?

bbe@Judges:19:18 @And he said to him, We are on our way from Beth-lehem-judah to the inmost parts of the hill-country of Ephraim: I came from there and went to Beth-lehem-judah: now I am on my way back to my house, but no man will take me into his house.

bbe@Judges:19:23 @So the man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said, No, my brothers, do not this evil thing; this man has come into my house, and you are not to do him this wrong.

bbe@Judges:19:24 @See, here is my daughter, a virgin, and his servant-wife: I will send them out for you to take them and do with them whatever you will. But do no such thing of shame to this man.

bbe@Judges:19:25 @But the men would not give ear to him: so the man took his woman and sent her out to them; and they took her by force, using her for their pleasure all night till the morning; and when dawn came they let her go.

bbe@Judges:19:26 @Then at the dawn of day the woman came, and, falling down at the door of the man's house where her master was, was stretched there till it was light.

bbe@Judges:19:27 @In the morning her master got up, and opening the door of the house went out to go on his way; and he saw his servant-wife stretched on the earth at the door of the house with her hands on the step.

bbe@Judges:19:28 @And he said to her, Get up and let us be going; but there was no answer; so he took her up and put her on the ass, and went on his way and came to his house.

bbe@Judges:19:29 @And when he had come to his house, he got his knife, and took the woman, cutting her up bone by bone into twelve parts, which he sent through all Israel.

bbe@Judges:20:1 @Then all the children of Israel took up arms, and the people came together like one man, from Dan to Beer-sheba, and the land of Gilead, before the Lord at Mizpah.

bbe@Judges:20:4 @Then the Levite, the husband of the dead woman, said in answer, I came to Gibeah in the land of Benjamin, I and my servant-wife, for the purpose of stopping there for the night.

bbe@Judges:20:5 @And the townsmen of Gibeah came together against me, going round the house on all sides by night; it was their purpose to put me to death, and my servant-wife was violently used by them and is dead.

bbe@Judges:20:6 @So I took her, cutting her into parts which I sent through all the country of the heritage of Israel: for they have done an act of shame in Israel.

bbe@Judges:20:7 @Here you all are, you children of Israel; give now your suggestions about what is to be done.

bbe@Judges:20:11 @So all the men of Israel were banded together against the town, united like one man.

bbe@Judges:20:13 @Now give up those good-for-nothing persons in Gibeah so that we may put them to death, clearing away the evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not give ear to the voice of their brothers, the children of Israel.

bbe@Judges:20:14 @And the children of Benjamin came together from all their towns to Gibeah, to go to war with the children of Israel.

bbe@Judges:20:17 @And the men of Israel, other than Benjamin, were four hundred thousand in number, all armed with swords; they were all men of war.

bbe@Judges:20:23 @Now the children of Israel went up, weeping before the Lord till evening, requesting the Lord and saying, Am I to go forward again to the fight against the children of Benjamin my brother? And the Lord said, Go up against him.

bbe@Judges:20:26 @Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up to Beth-el, weeping and waiting there before the Lord, going without food all day till evening, and offering burned offerings and peace-offerings before the Lord.

bbe@Judges:20:27 @And the children of Israel made request to the Lord, (for the ark of the agreement of the Lord was there in those days,

bbe@Judges:20:28 @And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, was in his place before it,) and said, Am I still to go on with the fight against the children of Benjamin my brother, or am I to give it up? And the Lord said, Go on; for tomorrow I will give him into your hands.

bbe@Judges:20:31 @And the children of Benjamin went out against the people, moving away from the town; and as before, at their first attack, they put to death about thirty men of Israel on the highways, of which one goes up to Beth-el and the other to Gibeah, and in the open country.

bbe@Judges:20:36 @So the children of Benjamin saw that they were overcome: and the men of Israel had given way before Benjamin, putting their faith in the watchers who were to make the surprise attack on Gibeah.

bbe@Judges:20:37 @And the watchers, rushing on Gibeah and overrunning it, put all the town to the sword without mercy.

bbe@Judges:20:48 @And the men of Israel, turning again against the children of Benjamin, put to the sword without mercy all the towns and the cattle and everything there was, burning every town which came into their hands.

bbe@Judges:21:2 @And the people came to Beth-el, waiting there till evening before God, and gave themselves up to bitter weeping.

bbe@Judges:21:4 @Then on the day after, the people got up early and made an altar there, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings.

bbe@Judges:21:5 @And the children of Israel said, Who is there among all the tribes of Israel, who did not come up to the Lord at the meeting of all Israel? For they had taken a great oath that whoever did not come up to Mizpah to the Lord was to be put to death.

bbe@Judges:21:6 @And the children of Israel were moved with pity for Benjamin their brother, saying, Today one tribe has been cut off from Israel.

bbe@Judges:21:12 @Now there were among the people of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins who had never had sex relations with a man; these they took to their tents in Shiloh in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Judges:21:14 @Then Benjamin came back; and they gave them the women whom they had kept from death among the women of Jabesh-gilead: but still there were not enough for them

bbe@Judges:21:19 @And they said, See, every year there is a feast of the Lord in Shiloh, which is to the north of Beth-el, on the east side of the highway which goes up from Beth-el to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah.

bbe@Judges:21:20 @And they said to the men of Benjamin, Go into the vine-gardens, waiting there secretly,

bbe@Judges:21:22 @And when their fathers or their brothers come and make trouble, you are to say to them, Give them to us as an act of grace; for we did not take them as wives for ourselves in war; and if you yourselves had given them to us you would have been responsible for the broken oath.

bbe@Judges:21:23 @So the men of Benjamin did this, and got wives for themselves for every one of their number, taking them away by force from the dance; then they went back to their heritage, building up their towns and living in them.

bbe@Judges:21:24 @Then the children of Israel went away from there, every man to his tribe and his family, every man went back to his heritage.

bbe@Judges:21:25 @In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did what seemed right to him.

bbe@Ruth:1:1 @Now there came a time, in the days of the judges, when there was no food in the land. And a certain man went from Beth-lehem-judah, he and his wife and his two sons, to make a living-place in the country of Moab.

bbe@Ruth:1:2 @And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Beth-lehem-judah. And they came into the country of Moab, and were there for some time.

bbe@Ruth:1:3 @And Elimelech, Naomi's husband, came to his end; and only her two sons were with her.

bbe@Ruth:1:4 @And they took two women of Moab as their wives: the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth; and they went on living there for about ten years.

bbe@Ruth:1:5 @And Mahlon and Chilion came to their end; and the woman was without her two sons and her husband.

bbe@Ruth:1:6 @So she and her daughters-in-law got ready to go back from the country of Moab, for news had come to her in the country of Moab that the Lord, in mercy for his people, had given them food.

bbe@Ruth:1:7 @And she went out of the place where she was, and her two daughters-in-law with her; and they went on their way to go back to the land of Judah.

bbe@Ruth:1:8 @And Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, Go back to your mothers' houses: may the Lord be good to you as you have been good to the dead and to me:

bbe@Ruth:1:10 @And they said to her, No, but we will go back with you to your people.

bbe@Ruth:1:12 @Go back, my daughters, and go on your way; I am so old now that I may not have another husband. If I said, I have hopes, if I had a husband tonight, and might have sons,

bbe@Ruth:1:14 @Then again they were weeping; and Orpah gave her mother-in-law a kiss, but Ruth would not be parted from her.

bbe@Ruth:1:15 @And Naomi said, See, your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and to her gods: go back after your sister-in-law.

bbe@Ruth:1:16 @But Ruth said, Give up requesting me to go away from you, or to go back without you: for where you go I will go; and where you take your rest I will take my rest; your people will be my people, and your God my God.

bbe@Ruth:1:17 @Wherever death comes to you, death will come to me, and there will be my last resting-place; the Lord do so to me and more if we are parted by anything but death.

bbe@Ruth:1:18 @And when she saw that Ruth was strong in her purpose to go with her she said no more.

bbe@Ruth:1:22 @So Naomi came back out of the country of Moab, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her; and they came to Beth-lehem in the first days of the grain-cutting.

bbe@Ruth:2:1 @And Naomi had a relation of her husband, a man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.

bbe@Ruth:2:2 @And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Now let me go into the field and take up the heads of grain after him in whose eyes I may have grace. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.

bbe@Ruth:2:7 @And she said to me, Let me come into the grain-field and take up the grain after the cutters. So she came, and has been here from morning till now, without resting even for a minute.

bbe@Ruth:2:8 @Then said Boaz to Ruth, Give ear to me, my daughter: do not go to take up the grain in another field, or go away from here, but keep here by my young women:

bbe@Ruth:2:9 @Keep your eyes on the field they are cutting, and go after them; have I not given orders to the young men not to put a hand on you? And when you are in need of drink go to the vessels and take of what the young men have put there.

bbe@Ruth:2:10 @Then she went down on her face to the earth, and said to him, Why have I grace in your eyes, that you give attention to me, seeing I am from a strange people?

bbe@Ruth:2:11 @And Boaz answering said to her, I have had news of everything you have done for your mother-in-law after the death of your husband; how you went away from your father and mother and the land of your birth, and came to a people who are strange to you.

bbe@Ruth:2:14 @And at meal-time Boaz said to her, Come here, and take some of the bread, and put your bit into the wine. And she took her seat among the grain-cutters: and he gave her dry grain, and she took it, and there was more than enough for her meal.

bbe@Ruth:2:15 @And when she got ready to take up the grain, Boaz gave his young men orders, saying, Let her take it even from among the cut grain, and say nothing to her.

bbe@Ruth:2:16 @And let some heads of grain be pulled out of what has been corded up, and dropped for her to take, and let no sharp word be said to her.

bbe@Ruth:2:17 @So she went on getting together the heads of grain till evening; and after crushing out the seed it came to about an ephah of grain.

bbe@Ruth:2:18 @And she took it up and went into the town; and she let her mother-in-law see what she had got, and after taking enough for herself she gave her the rest.

bbe@Ruth:2:19 @And her mother-in-law said to her, Where did you take up the grain today, and where were you working? May a blessing be on him who gave such attention to you. And she gave her mother-in-law an account of where she had been working, and said, The name of the man with whom I was working today is Boaz.

bbe@Ruth:2:20 @And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, May the blessing of the Lord, who has at all times been kind to the living and to the dead, be on him. And Naomi said to her, The man is of our family, one of our near relations.

bbe@Ruth:2:22 @And Naomi said to Ruth, her daughter-in-law, It is better, my daughter, for you to go out with his servant-girls, so that no danger may come to you in another field.

bbe@Ruth:2:23 @So she kept near the servant-girls of Boaz to take up the grain till the cutting of the early grain and the cutting of the late grain were ended; and she went on living with her mother-in-law.

bbe@Ruth:3:1 @And Naomi, her mother-in-law, said to her, My daughter, am I not to get you a resting-place where you may be in comfort?

bbe@Ruth:3:2 @And now, is there not Boaz, our relation, with whose young women you were? See, tonight he is separating the grain from the waste in his grain-floor.

bbe@Ruth:3:4 @But see to it, when he goes to rest, that you take note of the place where he is sleeping, and go in there, and, uncovering his feet, take your place by him; and he will say what you are to do.

bbe@Ruth:3:6 @So she went down to the grain-floor and did all her mother-in-law had said to her.

bbe@Ruth:3:12 @Now it is true that I am a near relation: but there is a relation nearer than I.

bbe@Ruth:3:13 @Take your rest here tonight; and in the morning, if he will do for you what it is right for a relation to do, very well, let him do so: but if he will not, then by the living Lord I myself will do so.

bbe@Ruth:3:14 @And she took her rest at his feet till the morning: and she got up before it was light enough for one to see another. And he said, Let it not come to anyone's knowledge that the woman came to the grain-floor.

bbe@Ruth:3:15 @And he said, Take your robe, stretching it out in your hands: and she did so, and he took six measures of grain and put them into it, and gave it her to take: and she went back to the town.

bbe@Ruth:3:16 @And when she came back her mother-in-law said to her, How did it go with you, my daughter? And she gave her an account of all the man had done to her.

bbe@Ruth:3:17 @And she said, He gave me these six measures of grain, saying, Do not go back to your mother-in-law with nothing in your hands.

bbe@Ruth:4:1 @And Boaz went up to the public place of the town, and took his seat there: and the near relation of whom he had been talking came by; and Boaz, crying out to him by name, said, Come and be seated here. And he came and was seated.

bbe@Ruth:4:2 @Then he got ten of the responsible men of the town, and said, Be seated here. And they took their seats.

bbe@Ruth:4:3 @Then he said to the near relation, Naomi, who has come back from the country of Moab, is offering for a price that bit of land which was our brother Elimelech's:

bbe@Ruth:4:4 @And it was in my mind to give you the chance of taking it, with the approval of those seated here and of the responsible men of my people. If you are ready to do what it is right for a relation to do, then do it: but if you will not do it, say so to me now; for there is no one who has the right to do it but you, and after you myself. And he said, I will do it.

bbe@Ruth:4:5 @Then Boaz said, On the day when you take this field, you will have to take with it Ruth, the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, so that you may keep the name of the dead living in his heritage.

bbe@Ruth:4:6 @And the near relation said, I am not able to do the relation's part, for fear of damaging the heritage I have: you may do it in my place, for I am not able to do it myself.

bbe@Ruth:4:7 @Now, in earlier times this was the way in Israel when property was taken over by a near relation, or when there was a change of owner. To make the exchange certain one man took off his shoe and gave it to the other; and this was a witness in Israel.

bbe@Ruth:4:10 @And, further, I have taken Ruth, the Moabitess, who was the wife of Mahlon, to be my wife, to keep the name of the dead man living in his heritage, so that his name may not be cut off from among his countrymen, and from the memory of his town: you are witnesses this day

bbe@Ruth:4:13 @So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and the Lord made her with child and she gave birth to a son.

bbe@Ruth:4:15 @He will be a giver of new life to you, and your comforter when you are old, for your daughter-in-law, who, in her love for you, is better than seven sons, has given birth to him.

bbe@Ruth:4:16 @And Naomi took the child and put her arms round it, and she took care of it.

bbe@Ruth:4:17 @And the women who were her neighbours gave it a name, saying, Naomi has a child; and they gave him the name of Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

bbe@Ruth:4:18 @Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron;

bbe@Ruth:4:19 @And Hezron became the father of Ram, and Ram became the father of Amminadab;

bbe@Ruth:4:20 @And Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon became the father of Salmon;

bbe@Ruth:4:21 @And Salmon became the father of Boaz, and Boaz became the father of Obed;

bbe@Ruth:4:22 @And Obed became the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David.

bbe@1Samuel:1:1 @Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim, a Zuphite of the hill-country of Ephraim, named Elkanah; he was the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite:

bbe@1Samuel:1:2 @And he had two wives, one named Hannah and the other Peninnah: and Peninnah was the mother of children, but Hannah had no children.

bbe@1Samuel:1:3 @Now this man went up from his town every year to give worship and to make offerings to the Lord of armies in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the Lord, were there.

bbe@1Samuel:1:4 @And when the day came for Elkanah to make his offering, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and daughters, their part of the feast:

bbe@1Samuel:1:5 @But to Hannah he gave one part, though Hannah was very dear to him, but the Lord had not let her have children.

bbe@1Samuel:1:6 @And the other wife did everything possible to make her unhappy, because the Lord had not let her have children;

bbe@1Samuel:1:7 @And year by year, whenever she went up to the house of the Lord, she kept on attacking her, so that Hannah gave herself up to weeping and would take no food.

bbe@1Samuel:1:8 @Then her husband Elkanah said to her, Hannah, why are you weeping? and why are you taking no food? why is your heart troubled? am I not more to you than ten sons?

bbe@1Samuel:1:10 @And with grief in her soul, weeping bitterly, she made her prayer to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:1:12 @Now while she was a long time in prayer before the Lord, Eli was watching her mouth.

bbe@1Samuel:1:13 @For Hannah's prayer came from her heart, and though her lips were moving she made no sound: so it seemed to Eli that she was overcome with wine.

bbe@1Samuel:1:14 @And Eli said to her, How long are you going to be the worse for drink? Put away the effects of your wine from you.

bbe@1Samuel:1:17 @Then Eli said to her, Go in peace: and may the God of Israel give you an answer to the prayer you have made to him.

bbe@1Samuel:1:18 @And she said, May your servant have grace in your eyes. So the woman went away, and took part in the feast, and her face was no longer sad.

bbe@1Samuel:1:19 @And early in the morning they got up, and after worshipping before the Lord they went back to Ramah, to their house: and Elkanah had connection with his wife; and the Lord kept her in mind.

bbe@1Samuel:1:22 @But Hannah did not go, for she said to her husband, I will not go till the child has been taken from the breast, and then I will take him with me and put him before the Lord, where he may be for ever.

bbe@1Samuel:1:23 @And her husband Elkanah said to her, Do whatever seems right to you, but not till you have taken him from the breast; only may the Lord do as he has said. So the woman, waiting there, gave her son milk till he was old enough to be taken from the breast.

bbe@1Samuel:1:24 @Then when she had done so, she took him with her, with a three-year old ox and an ephah of meal and a skin full of wine, and took him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh: now the child was still very young.

bbe@1Samuel:1:26 @And she said, O my lord, as your soul is living, my lord, I am that woman who was making a prayer to the Lord here by your side:

bbe@1Samuel:1:28 @So I have given him to the Lord; for all his life he is the Lord's. Then he gave the Lord worship there.

bbe@1Samuel:2:2 @No other is holy as the Lord, for there is no other God but you: there is no Rock like our God.

bbe@1Samuel:2:5 @Those who were full are offering themselves as servants for bread; those who were in need are at rest; truly, she who had no children has become the mother of seven; and she who had a family is wasted with sorrow.

bbe@1Samuel:2:8 @Lifting the poor out of the dust, and him who is in need out of the lowest place, to give them their place among rulers, and for their heritage the seat of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord's and he has made them the base of the world.

bbe@1Samuel:2:14 @This he put into the pot, and everything which came up on the hook the priest took for himself. This they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.

bbe@1Samuel:2:19 @And his mother made him a little robe and took it to him every year when she came with her husband for the year's offering.

bbe@1Samuel:2:25 @If one man does wrong to another, God will be his judge: but if a man's sin is against the Lord, who will take up his cause? But they gave no attention to the voice of their father, for it was the Lord's purpose to send destruction on them.

bbe@1Samuel:2:27 @And a man of God came to Eli and said to him, The Lord says, Did I let myself be seen by your father's people when they were in Egypt, servants in Pharaoh's house?

bbe@1Samuel:2:28 @Did I take him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest and to go up to my altar to make the smoke of the offerings go up and to take up the ephod? Did I give to your father's family all the offerings made by fire by the children of Israel?

bbe@1Samuel:2:30 @For this reason the Lord God of Israel has said, Truly I did say that your family and your father's people would have their place before me for ever: but now the Lord says, Let it not be so; I will give honour to those by whom I am honoured, and those who have no respect for me will be of small value in my eyes.

bbe@1Samuel:2:31 @See, the days are coming when your arm and the arm of your father's people will be cut off;

bbe@1Samuel:2:32 @And never again will there be an old man in your family.

bbe@1Samuel:3:1 @Now the young Samuel was the servant of the Lord before Eli. In those days the Lord kept his word secret from men; there was no open vision.

bbe@1Samuel:3:3 @And the light of God was still burning, while Samuel was sleeping in the Temple of the Lord where the ark of God was,

bbe@1Samuel:3:4 @The voice of the Lord said Samuel's name; and he said, Here am I.

bbe@1Samuel:3:5 @And running to Eli he said, Here am I, for you said my name. And Eli said, I did not say your name; go to your rest again. So he went back to his bed.

bbe@1Samuel:3:6 @And again the Lord said, Samuel. And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, Here am I; for you certainly said my name. But he said in answer, I said nothing, my son; go to your rest again.

bbe@1Samuel:3:8 @And for the third time the Lord said Samuel's name. And he got up and went to Eli and said, Here am I; for you certainly said my name. Then it was clear to Eli that the voice which had said the child's name was the Lord's.

bbe@1Samuel:3:15 @And Samuel kept where he was, not moving till the time came for opening the doors of the house of God in the morning. And fear kept him from giving Eli an account of his vision.

bbe@1Samuel:3:16 @Then Eli said, Samuel, my son. And Samuel answering said, Here am I.

bbe@1Samuel:4:1 @Now at that time the Philistines came together to make war against Israel, and the men of Israel went out to war against the Philistines and took up their position at the side of Eben-ezer: and the Philistines put their forces in position in Aphek.

bbe@1Samuel:4:3 @And when the people came back to their tents, the responsible men of Israel said, Why has the Lord let the Philistines overcome us today? Let us get the ark of the Lord's agreement here from Shiloh, so that it may be with us and give us salvation from the hands of those who are against us.

bbe@1Samuel:4:4 @So the people sent to Shiloh and got the ark of the agreement of the Lord of armies whose resting-place is between the winged ones; and Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were there with the ark of God's agreement.

bbe@1Samuel:4:13 @And when he came, Eli was seated by the wayside watching: and in his heart was fear for the ark of God. And when the man came into the town and gave the news, there was a great outcry.

bbe@1Samuel:4:17 @And the man said, Israel went in flight from the Philistines, and there has been great destruction among the people, and your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been taken.

bbe@1Samuel:4:19 @And his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was with child and near the time when she would give birth; and when she had the news that the ark of God had been taken and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, her pains came on her suddenly and she gave birth.

bbe@1Samuel:4:20 @And when she was very near death the women who were with her said, Have no fear, for you have given birth to a son. But she made no answer and gave no attention to it.

bbe@1Samuel:4:21 @And she gave the child the name of Ichabod, saying, The glory has gone from Israel: because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.

bbe@1Samuel:5:8 @So they sent for all the lords of the Philistines to come together there, and said, What are we to do with the ark of the God of Israel? And their answer was, Let the ark of the God of Israel be taken away to Gath. So they took the ark of the God of Israel away.

bbe@1Samuel:5:11 @So they sent and got together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its place, so that it may not be the cause of death to us and to our people: for there was a great fear of death through all the town; the hand of God was very hard on them there.

bbe@1Samuel:6:14 @And the cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite, and came to a stop there by a great stone: and cutting up the wood of the cart they made a burned offering of the cows to the Lord

bbe@1Samuel:6:18 @And the gold mice, one for every town of the Philistines, the property of the five lords, walled towns as well as country places: and the great stone where they put the ark of the Lord is still in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite to this day.

bbe@1Samuel:7:6 @So they came together to Mizpah, and got water, draining it out before the Lord, and they took no food that day, and they said, We have done evil against the Lord. And Samuel was judge of the children of Israel in Mizpah.

bbe@1Samuel:7:7 @Now when the Philistines had news that the children of Israel had come together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And the children of Israel, hearing of it, were full of fear.

bbe@1Samuel:7:14 @And the towns which the Philistines had taken were given back to Israel, from Ekron to Gath, and all the country round them Israel made free from the power of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.

bbe@1Samuel:7:17 @And his base was at Ramah, where his house was; there he was judge of Israel and there he made an altar to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:8:4 @Then all the responsible men of Israel got together and went to Samuel at Ramah,

bbe@1Samuel:8:5 @And said to him, See now, you are old, and your sons do not go in your ways: give us a king now to be our judge, so that we may be like the other nations.

bbe@1Samuel:8:8 @As they have done from the first, from the day when I took them out of Egypt till this day, turning away from me and worshipping other gods, so now they are acting in the same way to you.

bbe@1Samuel:8:20 @So that we may be like the other nations, and so that our king may be our judge and go out before us to war.

bbe@1Samuel:9:1 @Now there was a man of Benjamin named Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, a man of wealth.

bbe@1Samuel:9:2 @He had a son named Saul, a specially good-looking young man; there was no one better-looking among the children of Israel: he was taller by a head than any other of the people.

bbe@1Samuel:9:3 @Now the asses of Saul's father Kish had gone wandering away. And Kish said to his son Saul, Take one of the servants with you, and get up and go in search of the asses.

bbe@1Samuel:9:4 @So they went through the hill-country of Ephraim and through the land of Shalishah, but they saw no sign of them: then they went through the land of Shaalim, but they were not there: and they went through the land of the Benjamites, but they did not come across them.

bbe@1Samuel:9:5 @And when they had come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to the servant who was with him, Come, let us go back, or my father may give up caring about the asses and be troubled about us.

bbe@1Samuel:9:6 @But the servant said to him, See now, in this town there is a man of God, who is highly honoured, and everything he says comes true: let us go there now; it may be that he will give us directions about our journey.

bbe@1Samuel:9:8 @But the servant said in answer, I have here a fourth part of a shekel of silver: I will give that to the man of God, and he will give us directions about our way.

bbe@1Samuel:9:10 @Then Saul said to his servant, You have said well; come, let us go. So they went to the town where the man of God was.

bbe@1Samuel:9:11 @And when they were on the way up to the town, they saw some young girls going out to get water and said to them, Is the seer here?

bbe@1Samuel:9:22 @Then Samuel took Saul and his servant into the guest room, and made them take the chief place among all the guests who were there, about thirty persons.

bbe@1Samuel:9:25 @And when they had come down from the high place into the town, where a bed was made ready for Saul, he went to rest.

bbe@1Samuel:9:26 @And about dawn Samuel said to Saul on the roof, Get up so that I may send you away. So Saul got up, and he and Samuel went out together.

bbe@1Samuel:9:27 @And on their way down to the end of the town, Samuel said to Saul, Give your servant orders to go on in front of us, (so he went on,) but you keep here, so that I may give you the word of God.

bbe@1Samuel:10:2 @When you have gone away from me today, you will see two men by the resting-place of Rachel's body, in the land of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to you, The asses which you went in search of have come back, and now your father, caring no longer for the asses, is troubled about you, saying, What am I to do about my son?

bbe@1Samuel:10:3 @Then you are to go on from there, and when you come to the oak-tree of Tabor, you will see three men going up to God to Beth-el, one having with him three young goats and another three cakes of bread and another a skin full of wine:

bbe@1Samuel:10:5 @After that you will come to Gibeah, the hill of God, where an armed force of the Philistines is stationed: and when you come to the town, you will see a band of prophets coming down from the high place with instruments of music before them; and they will be acting like prophets:

bbe@1Samuel:10:6 @And the spirit of the Lord will come on you with power, and you will be acting like a prophet with them, and will be changed into another man.

bbe@1Samuel:10:8 @Then you are to go down before me to Gilgal, where I will come to you, for the offering of burned offerings and peace-offerings: go on waiting there for seven days till I come to you and make clear to you what you have to do.

bbe@1Samuel:10:11 @Now when Saul's old friends saw him among the band of prophets, the people said to one another, What has come to Saul, the son of Kish? Is even Saul among the prophets?

bbe@1Samuel:10:12 @And one of the people of that place said in answer, And who is their father? So it became a common saying, Is even Saul among the prophets?

bbe@1Samuel:10:14 @And Saul's father's brother said to him and his servant, Where have you been? And he said, Searching for the asses: and when we saw no sign of them, we came to Samuel.

bbe@1Samuel:10:17 @Then Samuel sent for the people to come together before the Lord at Mizpah;

bbe@1Samuel:10:21 @Then he made the tribe of Benjamin come near by families, and the family of the Matrites was taken: and from them, Saul, the son of Kish, was taken: but when they went in search of him he was nowhere to be seen.

bbe@1Samuel:10:22 @So they put another question to the Lord, Is the man present here? And the answer of the Lord was, He is keeping himself from view among the goods.

bbe@1Samuel:10:24 @And Samuel said to all the people, Do you see the man of the Lord's selection, how there is no other like him among all the people? And all the people with loud cries said, Long life to the king!

bbe@1Samuel:11:11 @Now on the day after, Saul put the people into three bands, and in the morning watch they came to the tents of the Ammonites, and they went on attacking them till the heat of the day: and those who were not put to death were put to flight in every direction, so that no two of them were together

bbe@1Samuel:11:14 @Then Samuel said to the people, Come, let us go to Gilgal and there make the kingdom strong in the hands of Saul.

bbe@1Samuel:11:15 @So all the people went to Gilgal; and there in Gilgal they made Saul king before the Lord; and peace-offerings were offered before the Lord; and there Saul and all the men of Israel were glad with great joy.

bbe@1Samuel:12:3 @Here I am: give witness against me before the Lord and before the man on whom he has put the holy oil: whose ox or ass have I taken? to whom have I been untrue? who has been crushed down by me? from whose hand have I taken a price for the blinding of my eyes? I will give it all back to you.

bbe@1Samuel:12:6 @And Samuel said to the people, The Lord is witness, who gave authority to Moses and Aaron, and who took your fathers up out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@1Samuel:12:7 @Keep your places now, while I take up the argument with you before the Lord, and give you the story of the righteousness of the Lord, which he has made clear by his acts to you and to your fathers.

bbe@1Samuel:12:8 @When Jacob and his sons had come into Egypt, and were crushed by the Egyptians, the prayers of your fathers came up to the Lord, and the Lord sent Moses and Aaron, who took your fathers out of Egypt, and he put them into this place.

bbe@1Samuel:12:13 @Here, then, is the king marked out by you: the Lord has put a king over you

bbe@1Samuel:12:15 @But if you do not give ear to the voice of the Lord, but go against his orders, then the hand of the Lord will be against you and against your king for your destruction, as it was against your fathers.

bbe@1Samuel:12:16 @Now keep where you are and see this great thing which the Lord will do before your eyes.

bbe@1Samuel:12:21 @And do not go from the right way turning to those false gods in which there is no profit and no salvation, for they are false.

bbe@1Samuel:13:4 @And all Israel had the news that Saul had made an attack on the Philistines, and that Israel was bitterly hated by the Philistines. And the people came together after Saul to Gilgal.

bbe@1Samuel:13:5 @And the Philistines came together to make war on Israel, three thousand war-carriages and six thousand horsemen and an army of people like the sands of the sea in number: they came up and took up their position in Michmash, to the east of Beth-aven.

bbe@1Samuel:13:8 @And he went on waiting there for seven days, the time fixed by Samuel: but Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were starting to go away from him.

bbe@1Samuel:13:9 @Then Saul said, Come here and give me the burned offering and the peace-offerings. And he made a burned offering to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:13:11 @And Samuel said, What have you done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were going away from me, and you had not come at the time which had been fixed, and the Philistines had come together at Michmash;

bbe@1Samuel:13:18 @And another went in the direction of Beth-horon: and another went by the hill looking down on the valley of Zeboiim, in the direction of the waste land.

bbe@1Samuel:13:19 @Now there was no iron-worker in all the land of Israel: for the Philistines said, For fear the Hebrews make themselves swords or spears:

bbe@1Samuel:14:1 @Now one day Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who was with him, looking after his arms, Come, let us go over to the Philistine force over there. But he said nothing to his father.

bbe@1Samuel:14:2 @And Saul was still waiting in the farthest part of Geba, under the fruit-tree in Migron: there were about six hundred men with him;

bbe@1Samuel:14:3 @And Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, brother of Ichabod, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of the Lord in Shiloh, who had the ephod. And the people had no idea that Jonathan had gone.

bbe@1Samuel:14:4 @Now between the narrow roads over the mountains by which Jonathan was making his way to the Philistines' forces, there was a sharp overhanging rock on one side, and a sharp rock on the other side: one was named Bozez and the other Seneh.

bbe@1Samuel:14:5 @The one rock went up on the north in front of Michmash and the other on the south in front of Geba.

bbe@1Samuel:14:6 @And Jonathan said to his young servant who had his arms, Come, let us go over to the armies of these men who have no circumcision: it may be that the Lord will give us help, for there is no limit to his power; the Lord is able to give salvation by a great army or by a small band.

bbe@1Samuel:14:9 @If they say to us, Keep quiet where you are till we come to you; then we will keep our places and not go up to them.

bbe@1Samuel:14:11 @And they let the Philistine force see the two of them: and the Philistines said, Look! the Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have taken cover.

bbe@1Samuel:14:12 @And the armed men of the force gave Jonathan and his servant their answer, saying, Come up here to us, and we will let you see something. Then Jonathan said to his servant, Come up after me: for the Lord has given them up into the hands of Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:14:15 @And there was great fear in the tents and in the field and among all the men of the armed force, and the attackers were shaking with fear; even the earth was moved with a great shaking and there was a fear as from God.

bbe@1Samuel:14:16 @And the watchmen of Saul, looking out from Geba in the land of Benjamin, saw all the army flowing away and running here and there.

bbe@1Samuel:14:18 @And Saul said to Ahijah, Let the ephod come here. For he went before Israel with the ephod at that time.

bbe@1Samuel:14:20 @And Saul and all the people with him came together and went forward to the fight: and every man's sword was turned against the man at his side, and there was a very great noise.

bbe@1Samuel:14:25 @And there was honey on the face of the field, and all the people came to the honey, the bees having gone from it;

bbe@1Samuel:14:27 @But Jonathan, having no knowledge of the oath his father had put on the people, stretching out the rod which was in his hand, put the end of it in the honey, and put it to his mouth; then his eyes were made bright.

bbe@1Samuel:14:28 @Then one of the people said to him, Your father put the people under an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed who takes any food this day. And the people were feeble, needing food.

bbe@1Samuel:14:29 @Then Jonathan said, My father has made trouble come on the land: now see how bright my eyes have become because I have taken a little of this honey.

bbe@1Samuel:14:30 @How much more if the people had freely taken their food from the goods of those who were fighting against them! would there not have been much greater destruction among the Philistines?

bbe@1Samuel:14:32 @And rushing at the goods taken in the fight, the people took oxen and sheep and young oxen, and put them to death there on the earth, and had a meal, taking the flesh with the blood in it.

bbe@1Samuel:14:33 @Then it was said to Saul, See, the people are sinning against the Lord, taking the blood with the flesh. And he said to those who gave him the news, Now let a great stone be rolled to me here.

bbe@1Samuel:14:34 @And Saul said, Go about among the people and say to them, Let every man come here to me with his ox and his sheep, and put them to death here, and take his meal: do no sin against the Lord by taking the blood with the flesh. So all the people took their oxen with them that night and put them to death there.

bbe@1Samuel:14:36 @And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, attacking them till the morning, till there is not a man of them living. And they said, Do whatever seems right to you. Then the priest said, Let us come near to God.

bbe@1Samuel:14:40 @Then he said to all Israel, You be on one side, and I with Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said to Saul, Do whatever seems good to you.

bbe@1Samuel:14:50 @The name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz; the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, brother of Saul's father.

bbe@1Samuel:14:51 @Kish, the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abner, were sons of Abiel.

bbe@1Samuel:14:52 @All through the life of Saul there was bitter war against the Philistines; and whenever Saul saw any strong man or any good fighting man, he kept him near himself.

bbe@1Samuel:15:12 @And early in the morning he got up and went to Saul; and word was given to Samuel that Saul had come to Carmel and put up a pillar, and had gone from there down to Gilgal.

bbe@1Samuel:15:29 @And further, the Glory of Israel will not say what is false, and his purpose may not be changed: for he is not a man, whose purpose may be changed.

bbe@1Samuel:15:32 @Then Samuel said, Make Agag, the king of the Amalekites, come here to me. And Agag came to him shaking with fear. And Agag said, Truly the pain of death is past.

bbe@1Samuel:15:33 @And Samuel said, As your sword has made women without children, so now your mother will be without children among women. And Agag was cut up by Samuel, bone from bone, before the Lord in Gilgal.

bbe@1Samuel:16:11 @Then Samuel said to Jesse, Are all your children here? And he said, There is still the youngest, and he is looking after the sheep. And Samuel said to Jesse, Send and make him come here: for we will not take our seats till he is here.

bbe@1Samuel:16:13 @Then Samuel took the bottle of oil, and put the oil on him there among his brothers: and from that day the spirit of the Lord came on David with power. So Samuel went back to Ramah.

bbe@1Samuel:16:16 @Now give orders to your servants who are here before you to go in search of a man who is an expert player on a corded instrument: and it will be that when the evil spirit from God is on you, he will make music for you on his instrument, and you will get well.

bbe@1Samuel:17:1 @Now the Philistines got their armies together for war, and came together at Socoh in the land of Judah, and took up their position between Socoh and Azekah in Ephes-dammim.

bbe@1Samuel:17:2 @And Saul and the men of Israel came together and took up their position in the valley of Elah, and put their forces in order against the Philistines.

bbe@1Samuel:17:3 @The Philistines were stationed on the mountain on one side and Israel on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.

bbe@1Samuel:17:10 @And the Philistine said, I have put to shame the armies of Israel this day; give me a man so that we may have a fight together.

bbe@1Samuel:17:15 @Now David went to and from Saul, looking after his father's sheep at Beth-lehem.

bbe@1Samuel:17:17 @And Jesse said to his son David, Take now for your brothers an ephah of this dry grain and these ten cakes of bread, and go quickly with them to the tents to your brothers;

bbe@1Samuel:17:18 @And take these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand, and see how your brothers are and come back with a sign to say how they are.

bbe@1Samuel:17:20 @And David got up early in the morning, and, giving the sheep into the care of a keeper, took the things and went as Jesse had said; and he came to the lines where the carts were, when the army was going out to the fight giving their war-cry.

bbe@1Samuel:17:22 @And David gave his parcels into the hands of the keeper of the army stores, and went running to the army and came to his brothers to get knowledge about them.

bbe@1Samuel:17:25 @And the men of Israel said, Have you seen this man? Clearly he has come out to put shame on Israel: and it is certain that if any man overcomes him, the king will give that man great wealth, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's family free in Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:17:28 @And Eliab, his oldest brother, hearing what David said to the men, was moved to wrath against David, and said, Why have you come here? Into whose care have you given that little flock of sheep in the waste land? I have knowledge of your pride and the evil of your heart, you have come down to see the fight.

bbe@1Samuel:17:30 @And turning away from him to one of the other men, he said the same words: and the people gave him the same answer.

bbe@1Samuel:17:34 @And David said to Saul, Your servant has been keeper of his father's sheep; and if a lion or a bear came and took a lamb from the flock,

bbe@1Samuel:17:40 @Then he took his stick in his hand, and got five smooth stones from the bed of the stream and put them in a bag such as is used by sheep-keepers; and in his hand was a leather band used for sending stones: and so he went in the direction of the Philistine.

bbe@1Samuel:17:44 @And the Philistine said to David, Come here to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field.

bbe@1Samuel:17:47 @And all these people who are here today may see that the Lord does not give salvation by sword and spear: for the fight is the Lord's, and he will give you up into our hands.

bbe@1Samuel:17:49 @And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone and sent it from his leather band straight at the Philistine, and the stone went deep into his brow, and he went down to the earth, falling on his face.

bbe@1Samuel:17:50 @So David overcame the Philistine with his leather band and a stone, wounding the Philistine and causing his death: but David had no sword in his hand.

bbe@1Samuel:18:2 @And that day Saul took David and would not let him go back to his father's house.

bbe@1Samuel:18:3 @Then Jonathan and David made an agreement together, because of Jonathan's love for David.

bbe@1Samuel:18:5 @And David went wherever Saul sent him, and did wisely: and Saul put him at the head of his men of war, and this was pleasing to all the people as well as to Saul's servants.

bbe@1Samuel:18:7 @And the women, answering one another in their song, said, Saul has put to death his thousands and David his tens of thousands.

bbe@1Samuel:18:8 @And Saul was very angry and this saying was unpleasing to him; and he said, They have given David credit for tens of thousands, and to me for only thousands: what more is there for him but the kingdom?

bbe@1Samuel:18:17 @And Saul said to David, Here is my oldest daughter Merab, whom I will give you for your wife: only be strong for me, fighting in the Lord's wars. For Saul said, Let it not be through me that his fate comes to him, but through the Philistines.

bbe@1Samuel:18:18 @And David said to Saul, Who am I, and what is my father's family in Israel, that I am to be son-in-law to the king?

bbe@1Samuel:18:21 @And Saul said, I will give her to him, so that she may be a cause of danger to him, and so that the hands of the Philistines may be against him. So Saul said to David, Today you are to become my son-in-law for the second time.

bbe@1Samuel:18:30 @Then the rulers of the Philistines went out to war: and whenever they went out, David did more wisely than all the other servants of Saul, so that his name became greatly honoured.

bbe@1Samuel:19:2 @And Jonathan said to David, Saul, my father, is purposing your death: so now, take care in the morning, and keep yourself safe in a secret place:

bbe@1Samuel:19:3 @And I will go out and take my place by my father's side in the field near where you are; and I will get into talk with my father about you, and when I see how things are, I will give you word.

bbe@1Samuel:19:4 @And Jonathan gave his father Saul a good account of David, and said to him, Let not the king do wrong against his servant, against David; because he has done you no wrong, and all his acts have had a good outcome for you:

bbe@1Samuel:19:8 @And there was war again: and David went out fighting the Philistines, causing great destruction among them; and they went in flight before him.

bbe@1Samuel:19:16 @And when the men came in, there was the image in the bed, with the cushion of goat's hair at its head

bbe@1Samuel:19:21 @And Saul, having news of this, sent other men, who in the same way became like prophets. And a third time Saul sent men, and they like the others became like prophets.

bbe@1Samuel:19:22 @Then he himself went to Ramah, and came to the great water-spring in Secu; and questioning the people he said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, They are at Naioth in Ramah.

bbe@1Samuel:19:23 @And he went on from there to Naioth in Ramah: and the spirit of God came on him, and he went on, acting like a prophet, till he came to Naioth in Ramah.

bbe@1Samuel:20:1 @And David went in flight from Naioth in Ramah and came to Jonathan and said, What have I done? What is my crime and my sin against your father that he is attempting to take my life?

bbe@1Samuel:20:2 @And he said to him, Far be the thought: you will not be put to death: see, my father does nothing, great or small, without giving me word of it: would he keep this secret from me? It is not so.

bbe@1Samuel:20:3 @But David took his oath again and said, Your father sees that I am dear to you; so he says to himself, Let Jonathan have no idea of this, for it will be a grief to him; but as the Lord is living, and as your soul is living, there is only a step between me and death.

bbe@1Samuel:20:6 @And if your father takes note of the fact that I am away, say, David made a request to me for himself that he might go to Beth-lehem, to his town: for it is the time when his family make their offering year by year.

bbe@1Samuel:20:8 @So, then, be kind to your servant; for you have been united with your servant in an agreement made before the Lord: but if there is any wrongdoing in me, put me to death yourself; why take me to your father?

bbe@1Samuel:20:9 @And Jonathan said, Do not have such a thought: for if I saw that my father was designing evil against you, would I not give you word of it?

bbe@1Samuel:20:10 @Then David said to Jonathan, Who will give me word if your father gives you a rough answer?

bbe@1Samuel:20:11 @And Jonathan said to David, Come, let us go out into the country. And the two of them went out together into the open country.

bbe@1Samuel:20:12 @And Jonathan said to David, May the Lord, the God of Israel, be witness; when I have had a chance of talking to my father, about this time tomorrow, if his feelings to David are good, will I not send and give you the news?

bbe@1Samuel:20:13 @May the Lord's punishment be on Jonathan, if it is my father's pleasure to do you evil and I do not give you word of it and send you away so that you may go in peace: and may the Lord be with you, as he has been with my father.

bbe@1Samuel:20:18 @Then Jonathan said to him, Tomorrow is the new moon: and it will be seen that you are not present, for there will be no one in your seat.

bbe@1Samuel:20:19 @And on the third day it will be specially noted, and you will go to the place where you took cover when the other business was in hand, waiting by the hill over there.

bbe@1Samuel:20:21 @And I will send my boy to have a look for the arrow. And if I say to him, See, the arrow is on this side of you; take it up! then you may come; for there is peace for you and no evil, by the living Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:20:25 @And the king took his seat, as at other times, by the wall: and Jonathan was in front, and Abner was seated by Saul's side, but there was no one in David's seat.

bbe@1Samuel:20:27 @And on the day after the new moon, that is, the second day, there was still no one in David's seat: and Saul said to his son Jonathan, Why has the son of Jesse not come to the feast yesterday or today?

bbe@1Samuel:20:29 @Saying, Our family is making an offering in the town, and my brothers have given me orders to be there: so now, if I have grace in your eyes, let me go away and see my brothers. This is why he has not come to the king's table.

bbe@1Samuel:20:30 @Then Saul was moved to wrath against Jonathan, and he said to him, You son of an evil and uncontrolled woman, have I not seen how you have given your love to the son of Jesse, to your shame and the shame of your mother?

bbe@1Samuel:20:31 @For while the son of Jesse is living on the earth, your position is unsafe and your kingdom is in danger. So make him come here to me, for it is certainly right for him to be put to death.

bbe@1Samuel:20:32 @And Jonathan, answering his father Saul, said to him, Why is he to be put to death? What has he done?

bbe@1Samuel:20:33 @And Saul, pointing his spear at him, made an attempt to give him a wound: from which it was clear to Jonathan that his father's purpose was to put David to death.

bbe@1Samuel:20:34 @So Jonathan got up from the table, burning with wrath, and took no part in the feast the second day of the month, being full of grief for David because his father had put shame on him.

bbe@1Samuel:20:37 @And when the boy came to the place where the arrow was, Jonathan, crying out after the boy, said, Has it not gone past you?

bbe@1Samuel:20:41 @And when the boy had gone, David came from his secret place by the hill, and falling to the earth went down on his face three times: and they gave one another a kiss, weeping together, till David's grief was the greater.

bbe@1Samuel:21:3 @So now, if you have here five cakes of bread, give them into my hand, or whatever you have.

bbe@1Samuel:21:4 @And the priest, answering David, said, I have no common bread here but there is holy bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women.

bbe@1Samuel:21:6 @So the priest gave him the holy bread: there was no other, only the holy bread which had been taken from before the Lord, so that new bread might be put in its place on the day when it was taken away.

bbe@1Samuel:21:7 @Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, kept back before the Lord; his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the strongest of Saul's runners.

bbe@1Samuel:21:8 @And David said to Ahimelech, Have you no sword or spear with you here? for I have come without my sword and other arms, because the king's business had to be done quickly.

bbe@1Samuel:21:9 @And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you put to death in the valley of Elah, is here folded in a cloth at the back of the ephod: take that, if you will, for there is no other sword here. And David said, there is no other sword like that; give it to me.

bbe@1Samuel:21:15 @Are there not enough unbalanced men about me, that you have let this person come and do such tricks before me? is such a man to come into my house?

bbe@1Samuel:22:1 @So David went away from there and took cover in a strong place at Adullam; and his brothers and all his father's people, hearing of it, went down to him there.

bbe@1Samuel:22:2 @And everyone who was in trouble, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was bitter in soul, came together to him, and he became captain over them: about four hundred men were joined to him.

bbe@1Samuel:22:3 @And from there David went to Mizpeh in the land of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab, Let my father and mother come and make their living-place with you till it is clear to me what God will do for me.

bbe@1Samuel:22:5 @And the prophet Gad said to David, Do not go on living in this place but go into the land of Judah. Then David went away and came to the woodland of Hereth.

bbe@1Samuel:22:7 @Then Saul said to his servants who were there about him, Give ear now, you Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give to every one of you fields and vine-gardens, will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands;

bbe@1Samuel:22:11 @Then the king sent for Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and for all the men of his father's family who were priests in Nob: and they all came to the king.

bbe@1Samuel:22:12 @And Saul said, Give ear now, O son of Ahitub. And answering he said, Here I am, my lord.

bbe@1Samuel:22:15 @Is this the first time I have got directions from God for him? Far be the thought! let the king make no such statement against his servant or my father's family, for your servant has no knowledge, great or small, of this thing.

bbe@1Samuel:22:16 @And the king said, You will certainly be put to death, Ahimelech, you and all your father's family

bbe@1Samuel:22:22 @And David said to Abiathar, I was certain that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would take the news to Saul: I am responsible for the lives of all your father's family.

bbe@1Samuel:22:23 @Keep here with me and have no fear; for he who has designs on my life has designs on yours: but with me you will be safe.

bbe@1Samuel:23:3 @And David's men said to him, Even here in Judah we are full of fear: how much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?

bbe@1Samuel:23:9 @And it was clear to David that Saul had evil designs against him, and he said to Abiathar the priest, Come here with the ephod.

bbe@1Samuel:23:13 @Then David and his men, about six hundred of them, went out of Keilah, and got away wherever they were able to go. And Saul, hearing that David had got away from Keilah, did not go there.

bbe@1Samuel:23:17 @And said to him, Have no fear, for Saul my father will not get you into his power; and you will be king of Israel, and I will be by your side, and my father Saul is certain of this.

bbe@1Samuel:23:22 @Go now, and take more steps, and see where he is living: for they say that he is expert in deceit.

bbe@1Samuel:23:23 @So take care to get knowledge of all the secret places where he is taking cover, and be certain to come back to me, and I will go with you: and without doubt, if he is anywhere in the land, I will get him, among all the families of Judah.

bbe@1Samuel:23:26 @And Saul and his men went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men went on the other: and David's purpose was to get away as quickly as possible, for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men were making a circle round David and his men in order to take them.

bbe@1Samuel:23:29 @And from there, David went up and took cover in the safe place of En-gedi.

bbe@1Samuel:24:3 @And on the way he came to a place where sheep were kept, where there was a hollow in the rock; and Saul went in for a private purpose. Now David and his men were in the deepest part of the hollow.

bbe@1Samuel:24:11 @And see, my father, see the skirt of your robe in my hand: for the fact that I took off the skirt of your robe and did not put you to death is witness that I have no evil purpose, and I have done you no wrong, though you are waiting for my life to take it.

bbe@1Samuel:24:13 @There is an old saying, From the evil-doer comes evil: but my hand will never be lifted up against you.

bbe@1Samuel:24:21 @So give me your oath by the Lord, that you will not put an end to my seed after me or let my name be cut off from my father's family.

bbe@1Samuel:25:1 @And death came to Samuel; and all Israel came together, weeping for him, and put his body in its resting-place in his house at Ramah. Then David went down to the waste land of Maon.

bbe@1Samuel:25:2 @Now there was a man in Maon whose business was in Carmel; he was a great man and had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats: and he was cutting the wool of his sheep in Carmel.

bbe@1Samuel:25:6 @And say this to my brother, May all be well for you: peace be to you and your house and all you have.

bbe@1Samuel:25:10 @And Nabal gave them his answer and said, Who is David? who is the son of Jesse? there are a number of servants in these days running away from their masters.

bbe@1Samuel:25:11 @Am I to take my bread and my wine and the meat I have got ready for my wool-cutters and give it to men coming from I have no idea where?

bbe@1Samuel:25:19 @And she said to her young men, Go on in front of me and I will come after you. But she said nothing to her husband Nabal.

bbe@1Samuel:25:20 @Now while she was going down under cover of the mountain on her ass, David and his men came down against her, and suddenly she came face to face with them.

bbe@1Samuel:25:21 @Now David had said, What was the use of my taking care of this man's goods in the waste land, so that there was no loss of anything which was his? he has only given me back evil for good.

bbe@1Samuel:25:22 @May God's punishment be on David, if when morning comes there is so much as one male of his people still living.

bbe@1Samuel:25:23 @And when Abigail saw David, she quickly got off her ass, falling down on her face before him.

bbe@1Samuel:25:34 @For truly, by the living Lord, the God of Israel, who has kept me from doing you evil, if you had not been so quick in coming to me and meeting me, by dawn there would not have been in Nabal's house so much as one male living.

bbe@1Samuel:25:35 @Then David took from her hands her offering: and he said to her, Go back to your house in peace; see, I have given ear to your voice, and taken your offering with respect.

bbe@1Samuel:25:39 @And David, hearing that Nabal was dead, said, May the Lord be praised, who has taken up my cause against Nabal for the shame which he put on me, and has kept back his servant from evil, and has sent on Nabal's head the reward of his evil-doing. And David sent word to Abigail, desiring to take her as his wife.

bbe@1Samuel:25:40 @And when David's servants came to Carmel, to Abigail, they said to her, David has sent us to you to take you to him as his wife.

bbe@1Samuel:25:41 @And she got up, and going down on her face to the earth, said, See, I am ready to be a servant-girl, washing the feet of the servants of my lord.

bbe@1Samuel:25:42 @Then Abigail got up quickly and went on her ass, with five of her young women, after the men whom David had sent; and she became David's wife.

bbe@1Samuel:26:4 @And so David sent out watchers, and got word from them that Saul was certainly coming.

bbe@1Samuel:26:5 @And David got up and came to the place where Saul's tents were: and David had a view of the place where Saul was sleeping with Abner, the son of Ner, the captain of his army: and Saul was sleeping inside the ring of carts, and the tents of the people were all round him.

bbe@1Samuel:26:6 @Then David said to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, Who will go down with me to the tents of Saul? And Abishai said, I will go down with you.

bbe@1Samuel:26:8 @Then Abishai said to David, God has given up your hater into your hands today; now let me give him one blow through to the earth with his spear, and there will be no need to give him a second.

bbe@1Samuel:26:13 @Then David went over to the other side, and took his place on the top of a mountain some distance away, with a great space between them;

bbe@1Samuel:26:15 @And David said to Abner, Are you not a man of war? is there any other like you in Israel? why then have you not kept watch over your lord the king? for one of the people came in to put the king your lord to death.

bbe@1Samuel:26:16 @What you have done is not good. By the living Lord, death is the right fate for you, because you have not kept watch over your lord, the man on whom the Lord has put the holy oil. Now see, where is the king's spear, and the vessel of water which was by his head?

bbe@1Samuel:26:18 @And he said, Why does my lord go armed against his servant? what have I done? or what evil is there in me?

bbe@1Samuel:26:19 @Let my lord the king give ear now to the words of his servant. If it is the Lord who is moving you against me, let him take an offering: but if it is the children of men, may they be cursed before the Lord, for driving me out today and keeping me from my place in the heritage of the Lord, saying, Go, be the servant of other gods.

bbe@1Samuel:26:22 @Then David said, Here is the king's spear! let one of the young men come over and get it.

bbe@1Samuel:27:10 @And every time Achish said, Where have you been fighting today? David said, Against the South of Judah and the South of the Jerahmeelites and the South of the Kenites.

bbe@1Samuel:28:1 @Now in those days the Philistines got their forces together to make war on Israel. And Achish said to David, Certainly you and your men are to go out with me to the fight.

bbe@1Samuel:28:4 @And the Philistines came together and put their forces in position in Shunem; and Saul got all Israel together and they took up their positions in Gilboa.

bbe@1Samuel:28:7 @Then Saul said to his servants, Get me a woman who has control of a spirit so that I may go to her and get directions. And his servants said to him, There is such a woman at En-dor.

bbe@1Samuel:28:8 @So Saul, putting on other clothing, so that he might not be seen to be the king, took two men with him and went to the woman by night; and he said, Now, with the help of the spirit which you have, make the person whose name I will give you come up.

bbe@1Samuel:28:10 @And Saul made an oath to her by the Lord, saying, By the living Lord, no punishment will come to you for this.

bbe@1Samuel:28:13 @And the king said to her, Have no fear: what do you see? And the woman said to Saul, I see a god coming up out of the earth.

bbe@1Samuel:28:14 @And he said to her, What is his form? And she said, It is an old man coming up covered with a robe. And Saul saw that it was Samuel, and with his face bent down to the earth he gave him honour.

bbe@1Samuel:28:20 @Then Saul went down flat on the earth, and was full of fear because of Samuel's words: and there was no strength in him, for he had taken no food all that day or all that night.

bbe@1Samuel:28:23 @But he would not, saying, I have no desire for food. But his servants, together with the woman, made him take food, and he gave way to them. So he got up from the earth, and took his seat on the bed.

bbe@1Samuel:29:1 @Now the Philistines got all their army together at Aphek: and the Israelites put their forces in position by the fountain in Jezreel.

bbe@1Samuel:29:3 @Then the rulers of the Philistines said, What are these Hebrews doing here? And Achish said to the rulers of the Philistines, Is this not David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me for a year or two, and I have never seen any wrong in him from the time when he came to me till now?

bbe@1Samuel:29:5 @Is this not David, who was named in their songs, when in the dance they said to one another, Saul has put to death thousands, and David tens of thousands?

bbe@1Samuel:29:10 @So get up early in the morning, with the servants of your lord who are with you, and go to the place I have given you, and have no evil design in your heart, for you are good in my eyes; but when there is light enough in the morning, go away.

bbe@1Samuel:30:2 @And had made the women and all who were there, small and great, prisoners: they had not put any of them to death, but had taken them all away.

bbe@1Samuel:30:7 @And David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, Come here to me with the ephod. And Abiathar took the ephod to David.

bbe@1Samuel:30:13 @And David said to him, Whose man are you and where do you come from? And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master went on without me because three days back I became ill.

bbe@1Samuel:30:14 @We made an attack on the south part of the country of the Cherethites, and on the land which is Judah's, and on the south of Caleb; and we put Ziklag on fire.

bbe@1Samuel:30:19 @There was no loss of anything, small or great, sons or daughters or goods or anything which they had taken away: David got it all back

bbe@1Samuel:30:20 @And they took all the flocks and herds, and driving them in front of him, said, These are David's.

bbe@1Samuel:30:23 @Then David said, You are not to do this, my brothers, after what the Lord has given us, who has kept us safe and given up the band which came against us into our hands.

bbe@1Samuel:30:26 @And when David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the goods to the responsible men of Judah, and to his friends, saying, Here is an offering for you from the goods of those who were fighting against the Lord;

bbe@1Samuel:30:31 @And in Hebron, and to all the places where David and his men had been living.

bbe@1Samuel:31:3 @And the fight was going badly for Saul, and the archers came across him, and he was wounded by the archers.

bbe@1Samuel:31:7 @And when the men of Israel across the valley and on the other side of Jordan saw that the army of Israel was in flight and that Saul and his sons were dead, they came out of their towns and went in flight; and the Philistines came and took them for themselves.

bbe@1Samuel:31:12 @All the fighting men got up and, travelling all night, took Saul's body and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan; and they came to Jabesh and had them burned there.

bbe@2Samuel:1:3 @And David said to him, Where have you come from? And he said, I have come in flight from the tents of Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:1:7 @And looking back, he saw me and gave a cry to me. And answering him I said, Here am I.

bbe@2Samuel:1:9 @Then he said to me, Come here to my side, and put me to death, for the pain of death has me in its grip but my life is still strong in me.

bbe@2Samuel:1:10 @So I put my foot on him and gave him his death-blow, because I was certain that he would not go on living after his fall: and I took the crown from his head and the band from his arm, and I have them here for my lord.

bbe@2Samuel:1:13 @And David said to the young man who had given him the news, Where do you come from? And he said, I am the son of a man from a strange land; I am an Amalekite.

bbe@2Samuel:1:21 @O mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew or rain on you, you fields of death: for there the arms of the strong have been shamed, the arms of Saul, as if he had not been marked with the holy oil.

bbe@2Samuel:1:26 @I am full of grief for you, my brother Jonathan: very dear have you been to me: your love for me was a wonder, greater than the love of women.

bbe@2Samuel:2:1 @Now after this, David, questioning the Lord, said, Am I to go up into any of the towns of Judah? And the Lord said to him, Go up. And David said, Where am I to go? And he said, To Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:2:2 @So David went there, taking with him his two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel, and Abigail, the wife of Nabal of Carmel.

bbe@2Samuel:2:4 @And the men of Judah came there, and with the holy oil made David king over the people of Judah. And word came to David that it was the men of Jabesh-gilead who put Saul's body in its last resting-place.

bbe@2Samuel:2:9 @And made him king over Gilead and the Asherites and over Jezreel and Ephraim and Benjamin, that is, over all Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:2:13 @And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out and came face to face with them by the pool of Gibeon; and they took up their position, facing one another on opposite sides of the pool.

bbe@2Samuel:2:16 @And every one got the other by the head, driving his sword into the other's side, so they all went down together: and that place was named the Field of Sides, and it is in Gibeon.

bbe@2Samuel:2:17 @And there was hard fighting that day; and Abner and the men of Israel gave way before the servants of David.

bbe@2Samuel:2:18 @There were three sons of Zeruiah there, Joab and Abishai and Asahel: and Asahel was as quick-footed as a roe of the fields.

bbe@2Samuel:2:22 @Then again Abner said to Asahel, Go to one side, do not keep on coming after me: why will you make me put an end to you? for then I will be shamed before your brother Joab.

bbe@2Samuel:2:23 @But still he did not go to one side: so Abner gave him a back blow in the stomach with his spear, so that the spear came out at his back; and he went down on the earth, wounded to death: and all those who came to the place where Asahel went down dead, came to a stop.

bbe@2Samuel:2:25 @And the men of Benjamin came together after Abner in one band, and took their places on the top of a hill.

bbe@2Samuel:2:30 @And Joab came back from fighting Abner: and when he had got all his men together, it was seen that nineteen of David's men, in addition to Asahel, were not with them.

bbe@2Samuel:2:32 @And they took Asahel's body and put it in the last resting-place of his father in Beth-lehem. And Joab and his men, travelling all night, came to Hebron at dawn.

bbe@2Samuel:3:1 @Now there was a long war between Saul's people and David's people; and David became stronger and stronger, but those on Saul's side became more and more feeble.

bbe@2Samuel:3:2 @While David was in Hebron he became the father of sons: the oldest was Amnon, son of Ahinoam of Jezreel;

bbe@2Samuel:3:3 @And the second, Chileab, whose mother was Abigail, the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom, son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai, king of Geshur;

bbe@2Samuel:3:5 @And the sixth, Ithream, whose mother was David's wife Eglah. These were the sons of David, whose birth took place in Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:3:6 @Now while there was war between Saul's people and David's people, Abner was making himself strong among the supporters of Saul.

bbe@2Samuel:3:7 @Now Saul had among his wives a woman named Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah: and Ish-bosheth said to Abner, Why have you taken my father's wife?

bbe@2Samuel:3:8 @And Abner was very angry at the words of Ish-bosheth, and he said, Am I a dog's head of Judah? I am this day doing all in my power for the cause of your father Saul and for his brothers and his friends, and have not given you up into the hands of David, and now you say I have done wrong with a woman.

bbe@2Samuel:3:15 @So Ish-bosheth sent and took her from her husband Paltiel, the son of Laish.

bbe@2Samuel:3:16 @And her husband went with her as far as Bahurim, weeping while he went. Then Abner said to him, Go back. And he went back.

bbe@2Samuel:3:27 @And when Abner was back in Hebron, Joab took him on one side by the doorway of the town to have a word with him quietly, and there he gave him a wound in the stomach, causing his death in payment for the death of his brother Asahel.

bbe@2Samuel:3:29 @May it come on the head of Joab and all his father's family: among the men of Joab's family may there ever be some who are diseased or lepers, or who do the work of women, or are put to the sword, or are wasted from need of food!

bbe@2Samuel:3:30 @So Joab and Abishai his brother put Abner to death, because he had put to death their brother Asahel in the fight at Gibeon.

bbe@2Samuel:3:35 @And the people came to make David take food, while it was still day, but David with an oath said, May God's punishment be on me if I take a taste of bread or any other thing till the sun has gone down!

bbe@2Samuel:4:2 @And Saul's son had two men, captains of bands, one named Baanah and the other Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the tribe of Benjamin; (for Beeroth was at one time taken to be part of Benjamin:

bbe@2Samuel:4:3 @But the people of Beeroth had gone in flight to Gittaim, where they have been living to this day.)

bbe@2Samuel:4:5 @And Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, went out and came to the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, when he was resting in the middle of the day. Now the woman who kept the door was cleaning grain, and sleep overcame her.

bbe@2Samuel:4:6 @And Rechab and his brother Baanah got in without being seen.

bbe@2Samuel:4:8 @And they took the head of Ish-bosheth to David in Hebron, and said to the king, Here is the head of Ish-bosheth, the son of Saul your hater, who would have taken your life; the Lord has taken payment for the wrongs of my lord the king from Saul and his seed today.

bbe@2Samuel:4:9 @And David made answer to Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, By the living Lord, who has kept me safe from all my trouble,

bbe@2Samuel:5:6 @And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the people of the land: and they said to David, You will not come in here, but the blind and the feeble-footed will keep you out; for they said, David will not be able to come in here.

bbe@2Samuel:5:20 @And David went to Baal-perazim, and overcame them there; and he said, The Lord has let the forces fighting against me be broken before me as a wall is broken by rushing waters. So that place was named Baal-perazim.

bbe@2Samuel:6:1 @And David got together all the fighting-men of Israel to the number of thirty thousand;

bbe@2Samuel:6:7 @And the wrath of the Lord, burning against Uzzah, sent destruction on him because he had put his hand on the ark, and death came to him there by the ark of God.

bbe@2Samuel:6:16 @And when the ark of the Lord came into the town of David, Michal, Saul's daughter, looking out of the window, saw King David dancing and jumping before the Lord; and to her mind he seemed foolish.

bbe@2Samuel:6:21 @And David said to Michal, I was dancing before the Lord, who put me over your father and all his sons, to make me a ruler over the people of the Lord, over his people Israel: and I will go on playing before the Lord;

bbe@2Samuel:6:23 @And Michal, Saul's daughter, had no child till the day of her death.

bbe@2Samuel:7:7 @In all the places where I went with all the children of Israel, did I ever say to any of the judges of Israel, to whom I gave the care of my people Israel, Why have you not made me a house of cedar?

bbe@2Samuel:7:9 @And I have been with you wherever you went, cutting off before you all those who were against you; and I will make your name great, like the name of the greatest ones of the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:7:10 @And I will make a resting-place for my people Israel, planting them there, so that they may be living in the place which is theirs, and never again be moved; and never again will they be troubled by evil men as they were at the first,

bbe@2Samuel:7:12 @And when the time comes for you to go to rest with your fathers, I will put in your place your seed after you, the offspring of your body, and I will make his kingdom strong.

bbe@2Samuel:7:14 @I will be to him a father and he will be to me a son: if he does wrong, I will give him punishment with the rod of men and with the blows of the children of men;

bbe@2Samuel:7:22 @Truly you are great, O Lord God: there is no one like you and no other God but you, as is clear from everything which has come to our ears.

bbe@2Samuel:7:23 @And what other nation in the earth, like your people Israel, did a god go out to take for himself, to be his people, and to make a name for himself, and to do great and strange things for them, driving out a nation and its gods from before his people?

bbe@2Samuel:8:1 @And it came about after this that David made an attack on the Philistines and overcame them; and David took the authority of the mother-town from the hands of the Philistines.

bbe@2Samuel:8:6 @And David put armed forces in Aram of Damascus: and the Aramaeans became servants to David and gave him offerings. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

bbe@2Samuel:8:11 @These King David made holy to the Lord, together with the silver and gold which he had taken from the nations he had overcome--

bbe@2Samuel:8:14 @And he put armed forces in Edom; all through Edom he had armed forces stationed, and all the Edomites became servants to David. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

bbe@2Samuel:8:18 @And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were priests

bbe@2Samuel:9:1 @And David said, Is there still anyone of Saul's family living, so that I may be a friend to him, because of Jonathan?

bbe@2Samuel:9:2 @Now there was of Saul's people a servant named Ziba, and they sent him to David; and the king said to him, Are you Ziba? And he said, I am.

bbe@2Samuel:9:3 @And the king said, Is there anyone of Saul's family still living, to whom I may be a friend in God's name? And Ziba said, There is a son of Jonathan, whose feet are damaged.

bbe@2Samuel:9:4 @And the king said to him, Where is he? And Ziba said to the king, He is in the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel, in Lo-debar.

bbe@2Samuel:9:6 @And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, came to David, and falling down on his face, gave him honour. And David said, Mephibosheth. And answering he said, Your servant is here.

bbe@2Samuel:9:7 @And David said to him, Have no fear: for truly I will be good to you, because of your father Jonathan, and I will give back to you all the land which was Saul's; and you will have a place at my table at all times.

bbe@2Samuel:10:2 @And David said, I will be a friend to Hanun, the son of Nahash, as his father was a friend to me. So David sent his servants, to give him words of comfort on account of his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.

bbe@2Samuel:10:3 @But the chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Does it seem to you that David is honouring your father by sending comforters to you? has he not sent his servants to go through the town and make secret observation of it, and overcome it?

bbe@2Samuel:10:10 @And the rest of the people he put in position against the children of Ammon, with Abishai, his brother, at their head.

bbe@2Samuel:10:15 @And when the Aramaeans saw that Israel had overcome them, they got themselves together.

bbe@2Samuel:10:16 @And Hadadezer sent for the Aramaeans who were on the other side of the River: and they came to Helam, with Shobach, the captain of Hadadezer's army, at their head.

bbe@2Samuel:10:17 @And word of this was given to David: and he got all Israel together and went over Jordan and came to Helam. And the Aramaeans put their forces in position against David, and made an attack on him.

bbe@2Samuel:10:18 @And the Aramaeans went in flight before Israel; and David put to the sword the men of seven hundred Aramaean war-carriages and forty thousand footmen, and Shobach, the captain of the army, was wounded, and came to his death there.

bbe@2Samuel:11:2 @Now one evening, David got up from his bed, and while he was walking on the roof of the king's house, he saw from there a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful.

bbe@2Samuel:11:4 @And David sent and took her; and she came to him, and he took her to his bed: (for she had been made clean;) then she went back to her house.

bbe@2Samuel:11:11 @And Uriah said to David, Israel and Judah with the ark are living in tents, and my lord Joab and the other servants of my lord are sleeping in the open field; and am I to go to my house and take food and drink, and go to bed with my wife? By the living Lord, and by the life of your soul, I will not do such a thing

bbe@2Samuel:11:12 @And David said to Uriah, Be here today, and after that I will let you go. So Uriah was in Jerusalem that day and the day after.

bbe@2Samuel:11:15 @And in the letter he said, Take care to put Uriah in the very front of the line, where the fighting is most violent, and go back from him, so that he may be overcome and put to death.

bbe@2Samuel:11:16 @So while Joab was watching the town, he put Uriah in the place where it was clear to him the best fighters were.

bbe@2Samuel:11:20 @If the king is angry and says, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall?

bbe@2Samuel:11:22 @So the man went, and came to David, and gave him all the news which Joab had sent him to give; then David was angry with Joab and said, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall? who put Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, to death? did not a woman send a great stone down on him from the wall, putting him to death at Thebez? why did you go so near the wall?

bbe@2Samuel:11:24 @And the archers sent their arrows at your servants from the wall, and some of the king's servants are dead, and among them is your servant Uriah the Hittite.

bbe@2Samuel:11:25 @Then David said to the man, Go and say to Joab, Do not let this be a grief to you; for one man may come to his death by the sword like another: put up an even stronger fight against the town, and take it: and do you put heart into him.

bbe@2Samuel:11:26 @And when the wife of Uriah had news that her husband was dead, she gave herself up to weeping for him.

bbe@2Samuel:11:27 @And when the days of weeping were past, David sent for her, and took her into his house, and she became his wife and gave him a son. But the Lord was not pleased with the thing David had done.

bbe@2Samuel:12:1 @And the Lord sent Nathan to David. And Nathan came to him and said, There were two men in the same town: one a man of great wealth, and the other a poor man.

bbe@2Samuel:12:2 @The man of wealth had great numbers of flocks and herds;

bbe@2Samuel:12:4 @Now a traveller came to the house of the man of wealth, but he would not take anything from his flock or his herd to make a meal for the traveller who had come to him, but he took the poor man's lamb and made it ready for the man who had come.

bbe@2Samuel:12:16 @So David made prayer to God for the child; and he took no food day after day, and went in and, stretching himself out on the earth, was there all night.

bbe@2Samuel:12:19 @But when David saw that his servants were talking together quietly, he was certain that the child was dead: and he said to his servants, Is the child dead? and they said, He is.

bbe@2Samuel:12:23 @But now that the child is dead there is no reason for me to go without food; am I able to make him come back to life? I will go to him, but he will never come back to me.

bbe@2Samuel:12:24 @And David gave comfort to his wife Bath-sheba, and he went in to her and had connection with her: and she had a son to whom she gave the name Solomon. And he was dear to the Lord.

bbe@2Samuel:12:28 @So now, get the rest of the people together, and put them in position against the town and take it, for if I take it, it will be named after my name.

bbe@2Samuel:12:29 @Then David got all the people together and went to Rabbah and made war on it and took it.

bbe@2Samuel:12:31 @And he took the people out of the town and put them to work with wood-cutting instruments, and iron grain-crushers, and iron axes, and at brick-making: this he did to all the towns of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Samuel:13:1 @Now after this, it came about that Absalom, David's son, had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and David's son Amnon was in love with her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:2 @And he was so deeply in love that he became ill because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin, and so it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:3 @But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother: and Jonadab was a very wise man.

bbe@2Samuel:13:4 @And he said to him, O son of the king, why are you getting thinner day by day? will you not say what your trouble is? And Amnon said to him, I am in love with Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.

bbe@2Samuel:13:5 @Then Jonadab said to him, Go to your bed, and let it seem that you are ill: and when your father comes to see you, say to him, Let my sister Tamar come and give me bread, and get the food ready before my eyes, so that I may see it and take it from her hand.

bbe@2Samuel:13:6 @So Amnon went to bed and made himself seem ill: and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, Please let my sister Tamar come and make me one or two cakes before my eyes, so that I may take food from her hand.

bbe@2Samuel:13:7 @Then David sent to the house for Tamar and said, Go now to your brother Amnon's house and get a meal for him.

bbe@2Samuel:13:8 @So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was in bed. And she took paste and made cakes before his eyes, cooking them over the fire.

bbe@2Samuel:13:10 @Then Amnon said to Tamar, Take the food and come into my bedroom, so that I may take it from your hand. So Tamar took the cakes she had made and went with them into her brother Amnon's bedroom.

bbe@2Samuel:13:11 @And when she took them to give them to him, he put his arms round her and said, Come to bed, my sister.

bbe@2Samuel:13:12 @And answering him, she said, O my brother, do not put shame on me; it is not right for such a thing to be done in Israel: do not this evil thing.

bbe@2Samuel:13:14 @But he would not give attention to what she said: but being stronger than she, he took her by force, and had connection with her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:15 @Then Amnon was full of hate for her, hating her with a hate greater than his earlier love for her

bbe@2Samuel:13:16 @And she said to him, Not so, my brother, for this great wrong in sending me away is worse than what you did to me before. But he gave no attention to her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:17 @Then he gave a cry to the servant who was waiting on him and said, Put this woman out, and let the door be locked after her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:18 @Now she had on a long robe, such as in past times the king's virgin daughters were dressed in. Then the servant put her out, locking the door after her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:19 @And Tamar, in her grief, put dust on her head; and she put her hand on her head and went away crying loudly.

bbe@2Samuel:13:20 @And her brother Absalom said to her, Has your brother Amnon been with you? but now, let there be an end to your crying, my sister: he is your brother, do not take this thing to heart. So Tamar went on living uncomforted in her brother's house.

bbe@2Samuel:13:22 @But Absalom said nothing to his brother Amnon, good or bad: for he was full of hate for him, because he had taken his sister Tamar by force.

bbe@2Samuel:13:26 @Then Absalom said, If you will not go, then let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said to him, Is there any reason for him to go with you?

bbe@2Samuel:13:32 @And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother, said, Let not my lord have the idea that all the sons of the king have been put to death; for only Amnon is dead: this has been purposed by Absalom from the day when he took his sister Tamar by force.

bbe@2Samuel:13:37 @So Absalom went in flight and came to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur, where he was for three years.

bbe@2Samuel:14:2 @And Joab sent to Tekoa and got from there a wise woman, and said to her, Now make yourself seem like one given up to grief, and put on the clothing of sorrow, not using any sweet oil for your body, but looking like one who for a long time has been weeping for the dead:

bbe@2Samuel:14:3 @And come to the king and say these words to him. So Joab gave her words to say.

bbe@2Samuel:14:4 @And the woman of Tekoa came to the king, and falling on her face, gave him honour and said, Give me help, O king.

bbe@2Samuel:14:5 @And the king said to her, What is your trouble? And her answer was, Truly I am a widow, and my husband is dead.

bbe@2Samuel:14:6 @And I had two sons, and the two of them had a fight in the field, and there was no one to come between them, and one with a blow put the other to death.

bbe@2Samuel:14:7 @And now all the family is turned against me, your servant, saying, Give up him who was the cause of his brother's death, so that we may put him to death in payment for the life of his brother, whose life he took; and we will put an end to the one who will get the heritage: so they will put out my last burning coal, and my husband will have no name or offspring on the face of the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:14:11 @Then she said, Let the king keep in mind the Lord your God, so that he who gives punishment for blood may be kept back from further destruction and that no one may send death on my son. And he said, By the living Lord, not a hair of your son's head will come to the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:14:16 @For the king will give ear, and take his servant out of the power of the man whose purpose is the destruction of me and my son together from the heritage of God.

bbe@2Samuel:14:25 @Now in all Israel there was no one so greatly to be praised for his beautiful form as Absalom: from his feet to the crown of his head he was completely beautiful.

bbe@2Samuel:14:27 @And Absalom was the father of three sons and of one daughter named Tamar, who was very beautiful.

bbe@2Samuel:14:32 @And Absalom's answer was, See, I sent to you saying, Come here, so that I may send you to the king to say, Why have I come back from Geshur? it would be better for me to be there still: let me now see the king's face, and if there is any sin in me, let him put me to death.

bbe@2Samuel:15:10 @But Absalom at the same time sent watchers through all the tribes of Israel to say, At the sound of the horn you are to say, Absalom is king in Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:15:18 @And all the people went on by his side; and all the Cherethites and all the Pelethites and all the men of Ittai of Gath, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, went on before the king.

bbe@2Samuel:15:19 @Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, Why are you coming with us? go back and keep with the king: for you are a man of another country, you are far from the land of your birth

bbe@2Samuel:15:20 @It was only yesterday you came to us; why then am I to make you go up and down with us? for I have to go where I may; go back then, and take your countrymen with you, and may the Lord's mercy and good faith be with you.

bbe@2Samuel:15:21 @And Ittai the Gittite in answer said, By the living Lord, and by the life of my lord the king, in whatever place my lord the king may be, for life or death, there will your servant be.

bbe@2Samuel:15:23 @And there was great weeping in all the country when all the people went through; and the king himself was waiting in the Kidron valley and all the people went by him in the direction of the olive-tree on the edge of the waste land.

bbe@2Samuel:15:26 @But if he says, I have no delight in you: then, here I am; let him do to me what seems good to him.

bbe@2Samuel:15:27 @The king said further to Zadok the priest, See, you and Abiathar are to go back to the town in peace, with your two sons, Ahimaaz, your son, and Jonathan, the son of Abiathar.

bbe@2Samuel:15:29 @So Zadok and Abiathar took the ark of God back to Jerusalem, and did not go away from there.

bbe@2Samuel:15:32 @Now when David had come to the top of the slope, where they gave worship to God, Hushai the Archite came to him in great grief with dust on his head:

bbe@2Samuel:15:34 @But if you go back to the town and say to Absalom, I will be your servant, O king; as in the past I have been your father's servant, so now I will be yours: then you will be able to keep Ahithophel's designs against me from being put into effect.

bbe@2Samuel:15:35 @And have you not there Zadok and Abiathar the priests? so whatever comes to your ears from the king's house, give word of it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.

bbe@2Samuel:16:3 @And the king said, And where is your master's son? And Ziba said, He is still at Jerusalem: for he said, Today Israel will give back to me the kingdom of my father.

bbe@2Samuel:16:5 @And when King David came to Bahurim, a man of Saul's family named Shimei, the son of Gera, came out from there, calling curses after him.

bbe@2Samuel:16:14 @And the king and his people came tired to Jordan, and took their rest there.

bbe@2Samuel:16:19 @And more than this! where is my place as a servant? is it not before his son? as I have been your father's servant, so will I be yours.

bbe@2Samuel:16:21 @And Ahithophel said to Absalom, Go in to your father's women who are here looking after his house; then all Israel will have the news that you are hated by your father, and the hands of your supporters will be strong

bbe@2Samuel:16:22 @So they put up the tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father's women before the eyes of all Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:17:3 @And I will make all the people come back to you as a bride comes back to her husband: it is the life of only one man you are going after; so all the people will be at peace.

bbe@2Samuel:17:8 @Hushai said further, You have knowledge of your father and his men, that they are men of war, and that their feelings are bitter, like those of a bear in the field whose young ones have been taken from her: and your father is a man of war, and will not take his night's rest with the people;

bbe@2Samuel:17:9 @But he will certainly have taken cover now in some hole or secret place; and if some of our people, at the first attack, are overcome, then any hearing of it will say, There is destruction among the people who are on Absalom's side.

bbe@2Samuel:17:10 @Then even the strongest, whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will become like water; for all Israel is conscious that your father is a man of war, and those who are with him are strong and without fear.

bbe@2Samuel:17:11 @But my suggestion is that all Israel, from Dan as far as Beer-sheba, comes together to you, a great army like the sands of the sea in number; and that you yourself go out among them.

bbe@2Samuel:17:12 @Then we will come on him in some place, wherever he may be, falling on him as the dew comes on the earth: and of him and all the men who are with him not one will get away with his life.

bbe@2Samuel:17:13 @And if he has gone into some town, then let all Israel take strong cords to that town, and we will have it pulled into the valley, till not one small stone is to be seen there.

bbe@2Samuel:17:20 @And Absalom's servants came to the woman at the house and said, Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said to them, They have gone from here to the stream. And after searching for them, and seeing nothing of them, they went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Samuel:17:23 @Now when Ahithophel saw that his suggestion was not acted on, he got his ass ready, and went back to his house, to the town where he came from, and having put his house in order, he put himself to death by hanging; so he came to his end and was put in the resting-place of his father

bbe@2Samuel:17:25 @And Absalom put Amasa at the head of the army in place of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man named Ithra the Ishmaelite, who had been the lover of Abigail, the daughter of Jesse, sister of Zeruiah, Joab's mother.

bbe@2Samuel:18:2 @And David sent the people out, a third of them under the orders of Joab, and a third under the orders of Abishai, son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third under Ittai the Gittite. And the king said to the people, And I myself will certainly go out with you.

bbe@2Samuel:18:7 @And the people of Israel were overcome there by the servants of David, and there was a great destruction that day, and twenty thousand men were put to the sword.

bbe@2Samuel:18:20 @And Joab said, You will take no news today; another day you may give him the news, but you will take no news today, because the king's son is dead.

bbe@2Samuel:18:26 @Then the watchman saw another man running: and crying out in the direction of the door he said, Here is another man running by himself. And the king said, He, like the other, comes with news.

bbe@2Samuel:18:30 @And the king said, Get back and take your place here. So turning to one side, he took his place there.

bbe@2Samuel:19:12 @You are my brothers, my bone and my flesh; why are you the last to get the king back again?

bbe@2Samuel:19:15 @So the king came back, and came as far as Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, meeting the king there, to take him back with them over Jordan.

bbe@2Samuel:19:28 @For all my father's family were only dead men before my lord the king: and still you put your servant among those whose place is at the king's table. What right then have I to say anything more to the king?

bbe@2Samuel:19:29 @And the king said, Say nothing more about these things. I say, Let there be a division of the land between Ziba and you.

bbe@2Samuel:19:37 @Let your servant now go back again, so that when death comes to me, it may be in my town and by the resting-place of my father and mother. But here is your servant Chimham: let him go with my lord the king, and do for him what seems good to you.

bbe@2Samuel:20:1 @Now by chance there was present a good-for-nothing person named Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he, sounding the horn, said, We have no part in David, or any interest in the son of Jesse: let every man go to his tent, O Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:20:4 @Then the king said to Amasa, Get all the men of Judah together, and in three days be here yourself.

bbe@2Samuel:20:5 @So Amasa went to get all the men of Judah together, but he took longer than the time David had given him.

bbe@2Samuel:20:7 @So there went after Abishai, Joab and the Cherethites and the Pelethites and all the fighting-men; they went out of Jerusalem to overtake Sheba, the son of Bichri.

bbe@2Samuel:20:9 @And Joab said to Amasa, Is it well, my brother? And with his right hand he took him by the hair of his chin to give him a kiss.

bbe@2Samuel:20:10 @But Amasa did not see danger from the sword which was now in Joab's left hand, and Joab put it through his stomach so that his inside came out on to the earth, and he did not give him another blow. So Joab and his brother Abishai went on after Sheba, the son of Bichri.

bbe@2Samuel:20:14 @And Sheba went through all the tribes of Israel, to Abel of Beth-maacah; and all the Bichrites came together and went in after him.

bbe@2Samuel:20:18 @Then she said, In the old days, there was a saying, Let them put the question in Abel and in Dan, saying, Has what was ordered by men of good faith in Israel ever come to an end?

bbe@2Samuel:20:19 @Your purpose is the destruction of a mother-town in Israel: why would you put an end to the heritage of the Lord?

bbe@2Samuel:20:20 @And Joab, answering her, said, Far, far be it from me to be a cause of death or destruction;

bbe@2Samuel:20:22 @Then the woman in her wisdom had talk with all the town. And they had Sheba's head cut off and sent out to Joab. And he had the horn sounded, and sent them all away from the town, every man to his tent. And Joab went back to Jerusalem to the king.

bbe@2Samuel:20:23 @Now Joab was over all the army; and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was at the head of the Cherethites and the Pelethites;

bbe@2Samuel:21:1 @In the days of David they were short of food for three years, year after year; and David went before the Lord for directions. And the Lord said, On Saul and on his family there is blood, because he put the Gibeonites to death.

bbe@2Samuel:21:3 @So David said to the Gibeonites, What may I do for you? how am I to make up to you for your wrongs, so that you may give a blessing to the heritage of the Lord?

bbe@2Samuel:21:8 @But the king took Armoni and Mephibosheth, the two sons of Saul to whom Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, had given birth; and the five sons of Saul's daughter Merab, whose father was Adriel, the son of Barzillai the Meholathite:

bbe@2Samuel:21:9 @And he gave them up to the Gibeonites, and they put them to death, hanging them on the mountain before the Lord; all seven came to their end together in the first days of the grain-cutting, at the start of the cutting of the barley.

bbe@2Samuel:21:10 @And Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, took haircloth, placing it on the rock as a bed for herself, from the start of the grain-cutting till rain came down on them from heaven; and she did not let the birds of the air come near them by day, or the beasts of the field by night.

bbe@2Samuel:21:12 @And David went and took the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had taken them away secretly from the public place of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had put them, hanging up the bodies there on the day when they put Saul to death in Gilboa:

bbe@2Samuel:21:13 @And he took the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan from that place; and they got together the bones of those who had been put to death by hanging.

bbe@2Samuel:21:14 @And they put them with the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan in the resting-place of Kish, his father, in Zela in the country of Benjamin; they did all the king had given them orders to do

bbe@2Samuel:21:16 @And there came against David one of the offspring of the Rephaim, whose spear was three hundred shekels of brass in weight, and having a new sword, he made an attempt to put David to death.

bbe@2Samuel:21:18 @Now after this there was war with the Philistines again at Gob, and Sibbecai the Hushathite put to death Saph, one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

bbe@2Samuel:21:19 @And again there was war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan, the son of Jair the Beth-lehemite, put to death Goliath the Gittite, the stem of whose spear was like a cloth-worker's rod.

bbe@2Samuel:21:20 @And again there was war at Gath, where there was a very tall man, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet; he was one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

bbe@2Samuel:21:21 @And when he was purposing to put shame on Israel, Jonathan, the son of Shimei, David's brother, put him to death.

bbe@2Samuel:22:9 @There went up a smoke from his nose, and a fire of destruction from his mouth: coals were lighted by it.

bbe@2Samuel:22:42 @They were crying out, but there was no one to come to their help: even to the Lord, but he gave them no answer.

bbe@2Samuel:22:45 @Men of other countries will, with false hearts, put themselves under my authority: from the time when my name comes to their ears, they will be ruled by me.

bbe@2Samuel:23:9 @After him was Eleazar, the son of Dodai the Ahohite, one of the three great fighters, who was with David in Pas-dammim when the Philistines came together there for the fight; and when the men of Israel had gone in flight,

bbe@2Samuel:23:11 @After him was Shammah, the son of Ela the Hararite. And the Philistines came together in Lehi, where there was a bit of land full of seed; and the people went in flight from the Philistines.

bbe@2Samuel:23:18 @And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the thirty

bbe@2Samuel:23:24 @Asahel, the brother of Joab, was one of the thirty; and Elhanan, the son of Dodai, of Beth-lehem,

bbe@2Samuel:24:6 @Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of the Hittites under Hermon; and they came to Dan, and from Dan they came round to Zidon,

bbe@2Samuel:24:9 @And Joab gave the king the number of all the people: there were in Israel eight hundred thousand fighting men able to take up arms; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand.

bbe@2Samuel:24:13 @So Gad came to David, and gave him word of this and said to him, Are there to be three years when there is not enough food in your land? or will you go in flight from your haters for three months, while they go after you? or will you have three days of violent disease in your land? take thought and say what answer I am to give to him who sent me.

bbe@2Samuel:24:22 @And Araunah said to David, Let my lord the king take whatever seems right to him, and make an offering of it: see, here are the oxen for the burned offering, and the grain-cleaning instruments and the ox-yokes for wood:

bbe@2Samuel:24:25 @And there David put up an altar to the Lord, making burned offerings and peace-offerings. So the Lord gave ear to his prayer for the land, and the disease came to an end in Israel.

bbe@1Kings:1:2 @So his servants said to him, Let search be made for a young virgin for my lord the king, to take care of him and be waiting on him; and you may take her in your arms, and so my lord the king will be warm.

bbe@1Kings:1:3 @So after searching through all the land of Israel for a fair young girl, they saw Abishag the Shunammite, and took her to the king.

bbe@1Kings:1:4 @Now she was very beautiful; and she took care of the king, waiting on him at all times; but the king had no connection with her.

bbe@1Kings:1:6 @Now all his life his father had never gone against him or said to him, Why have you done so? and he was a very good-looking man, and younger than Absalom.

bbe@1Kings:1:9 @Then Adonijah put to death sheep and oxen and fat beasts by the stone of Zoheleth, by En-rogel; and he sent for all his brothers, the king's sons, and all the men of Judah, the king's servants, to come to him:

bbe@1Kings:1:10 @But he did not send for Nathan the prophet and Benaiah and the other men of war and Solomon his brother.

bbe@1Kings:1:11 @Then Nathan said to Bath-sheba, the mother of Solomon, Has it not come to your ears that Adonijah, the son of Haggith, has made himself king without the knowledge of David our lord?

bbe@1Kings:1:14 @And while you are still talking there with the king, see, I will come in after you and say that your story is true.

bbe@1Kings:1:16 @And Bath-sheba went down on her face on the earth before the king giving him honour. And he said, What is your desire?

bbe@1Kings:1:21 @For as things are, it will come about, when my lord the king is sleeping with his fathers, that I and Solomon my son will be made outlaws.

bbe@1Kings:1:23 @And they said to the king, Here is Nathan the prophet. And when he came in before the king, he went down on his face on the earth.

bbe@1Kings:1:28 @Then King David in answer said, Send for Bath-sheba to come to me. And she came in and took her place before the king.

bbe@1Kings:1:31 @Then Bath-sheba went down on her face on the earth before the king giving him honour, and said, May my lord King David go on living for ever.

bbe@1Kings:1:34 @And there let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet put the holy oil on him to make him king over Israel; and sounding the horn say, Long life to King Solomon!

bbe@1Kings:1:38 @So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down and put Solomon on King David's beast and took him to Gihon.

bbe@1Kings:1:44 @And he sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and they put him on the king's beast:

bbe@1Kings:1:45 @And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet put the holy oil on him and made him king in Gihon; and they came back from there with joy, and the town was all worked up. This is the noise which has come to your ears.

bbe@1Kings:2:3 @And keep the orders of the Lord your God, walking in his ways, keeping his laws and his orders and his rules and his words, as they are recorded in the law of Moses; so that you may do well in all you do and wherever you go,

bbe@1Kings:2:5 @Now you have knowledge of what Joab, the son of Zeruiah, did to me, and to the two captains of the army of Israel, Abner, the son of Ner, and Amasa, the son of Jether, whom he put to death, taking payment for the blood of war in time of peace, and making the band of my clothing and the shoes on my feet red with the blood of one put to death without cause.

bbe@1Kings:2:7 @But be good to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be guests at your table; for so they came to me when I went in flight from Absalom your brother.

bbe@1Kings:2:10 @Then David went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David.

bbe@1Kings:2:12 @And Solomon took his place on the seat of David his father, and his kingdom was made safe and strong.

bbe@1Kings:2:13 @Then Adonijah, the son of Haggith, came to Bath-sheba, the mother of Solomon. And she said, Come you in peace? And he said, Yes, in peace.

bbe@1Kings:2:15 @And he said, You saw how the kingdom was mine, and all Israel had the idea that I would be their king; but now the kingdom is turned about, and has become my brother's, for it was given to him by the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:2:19 @So Bath-sheba went to King Solomon to have talk with him on Adonijah's account. And the king got up to come to her, and went down low to the earth before her; then he took his place on the king's seat and had a seat made ready for the king's mother and she took her place at his right hand.

bbe@1Kings:2:20 @Then she said, I have one small request to make to you; do not say, No, to me. And the king said, Say on, my mother, for I will not say, No, to you.

bbe@1Kings:2:21 @And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah your brother for a wife.

bbe@1Kings:2:22 @Then King Solomon made answer and said to his mother, Why are you requesting me to give Abishag the Shunammite to Adonijah? Take the kingdom for him in addition, for he is my older brother, and Abiathar the priest and Joab, the son of Zeruiah, are on his side.

bbe@1Kings:2:24 @Now by the living Lord, who has given me my place on the seat of David my father, and made me one of a line of kings, as he gave me his word, truly Adonijah will be put to death this day.

bbe@1Kings:2:26 @And to Abiathar the priest the king said, Go to Anathoth, to your fields; for death would be your right reward; but I will not put you to death now, because you took up the ark of the Lord God before David my father, and you were with him in all his troubles.

bbe@1Kings:2:30 @And Benaiah came to the Tent of the Lord and said to him, The king says, Come out. And he said, No; but let death come to me here. And Benaiah went back to the king and gave him word of the answer which Joab had given.

bbe@1Kings:2:31 @And the king said, Do as he has said and make an attack on him there, and put his body into the earth; so that you may take away from me and from my family the blood of one put to death by Joab without cause.

bbe@1Kings:2:32 @And the Lord will send back his blood on his head, because of the attack he made on two men more upright and better than himself, putting them to the sword without my father's knowledge; even Abner, the son of Ner, captain of the army of Israel, and Amasa, the son of Jether, captain of the army of Judah.

bbe@1Kings:2:33 @So their blood will be on the head of Joab, and on the head of his seed for ever; but for David and his seed and his family and the seat of his kingdom, there will be peace for ever from the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:2:36 @Then the king sent for Shimei, and said to him, Make a house for yourself in Jerusalem and keep there and go to no other place.

bbe@1Kings:2:42 @Then the king sent for Shimei, and said to him, Did I not make you take an oath by the Lord, protesting to you and saying, Be certain that on the day when you go out from here, wherever you go, death will overtake you? and you said to me, Very well!

bbe@1Kings:2:44 @And the king said to Shimei, You have knowledge of all the evil which you did to David my father; and now the Lord has sent back your evil on yourself.

bbe@1Kings:3:1 @Solomon became the son-in-law of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter as his wife, keeping her in the town of David, till the house he was building for himself, and the house of the Lord and the wall round Jerusalem, were complete.

bbe@1Kings:3:4 @And the king went to Gibeon to make an offering there, because that was the chief high place: it was Solomon's way to make a thousand burned offerings on that altar.

bbe@1Kings:3:6 @And Solomon said, Great was your mercy to David my father, as his life before you was true and upright and his heart was true to you; and you have kept for him this greatest mercy, a son to take his place this day.

bbe@1Kings:3:7 @And now, O Lord my God, you have made your servant king in the place of David my father; and I am only a young boy, with no knowledge of how to go out or come in.

bbe@1Kings:3:20 @And she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while your servant was sleeping; and she took it in her arms and put her dead child in my arms.

bbe@1Kings:3:22 @And the other woman said, No; but the living child is my son and the dead one yours. But the first said, No; the dead child is your son and the living one mine. So they kept on talking before the king.

bbe@1Kings:3:23 @Then the king said, One says, The living child is my son, and yours is the dead: and the other says, Not so; but your son is the dead one and mine is the living.

bbe@1Kings:3:25 @And the king said, Let the living child be cut in two and one half given to one woman and one to the other.

bbe@1Kings:3:26 @Then the mother of the living child came forward, for her heart went out to her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the child; do not on any account put it to death. But the other woman said, It will not be mine or yours; let it be cut in two.

bbe@1Kings:3:27 @Then the king made answer and said, Give her the child, and do not put it to death; she is the mother of it.

bbe@1Kings:4:16 @Baana, the son of Hushai, in Asher and Aloth;

bbe@1Kings:5:1 @Now Hiram, king of Tyre, hearing that Solomon had been made king in place of his father, sent his servants to him; for Hiram had ever been a friend to David.

bbe@1Kings:5:3 @You have knowledge that David my father was not able to make a house for the name of the Lord his God, because of the wars which were round him on every side, till the Lord put all those who were against him under his feet.

bbe@1Kings:5:5 @And so it is my purpose to make a house for the name of the Lord my God, as he said to David my father, Your son, whom I will make king in your place, will be the builder of a house for my name.

bbe@1Kings:5:9 @My men will take them down from Lebanon to the sea, where I will have them corded together to go by sea to whatever place you say, and I will have them cut up there so that you may take them away; as for payment, it will be enough if you give me food for my people.

bbe@1Kings:5:12 @Now the Lord had given Solomon wisdom, as he had said to him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and they made an agreement together

bbe@1Kings:5:13 @Then King Solomon got together men for the forced work through all Israel, thirty thousand men in number;

bbe@1Kings:6:6 @The lowest line of them being five cubits wide, the middle six cubits wide and the third seven cubits; for there was a space all round the outside walls of the house so that the boards supporting the rooms did not have to be fixed in the walls of the house.

bbe@1Kings:6:7 @(And the stones used in the building of the house were squared at the place where they were cut out; there was no sound of hammer or axe or any iron instrument while they were building the house.)

bbe@1Kings:6:12 @About this house which you are building: if you will keep my laws and give effect to my decisions and be guided by my rules, I will give effect to my word which I gave to David your father.

bbe@1Kings:6:16 @And at the back of the house a further space of twenty cubits was shut in with boards of cedar-wood, for the inmost room.

bbe@1Kings:6:24 @With outstretched wings five cubits wide; the distance from the edge of one wing to the edge of the other was ten cubits.

bbe@1Kings:6:27 @These were placed inside the inner house, their outstretched wings touching the walls of the house, one touching one wall and one the other, while their other wings were touching in the middle.

bbe@1Kings:7:4 @There were three lines of window-frames, window facing window in every line.

bbe@1Kings:7:5 @And all the doors and windows had square frames, with the windows facing one another in three lines.

bbe@1Kings:7:8 @And the house for his living-place, the other open square in the covered room, was made in the same way. And then he made a house like it for Pharaoh's daughter, whom Solomon had taken as his wife.

bbe@1Kings:7:14 @He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in brass; he was full of wisdom and knowledge and an expert worker in brass. He came to King Solomon and did all his work for him.

bbe@1Kings:7:17 @There were nets of open-work for the crowns on the tops of the pillars, a net of open-work for one and a net of open-work for the other.

bbe@1Kings:7:20 @And there were crowns on the two pillars near the round part by the network, and there were two hundred apples in lines round every crown.

bbe@1Kings:7:24 @And under the edge of it, circling it all round for ten cubits, were two lines of flower buds, made together with it from liquid metal.

bbe@1Kings:7:30 @Every base had four wheels of brass, turning on brass rods, and their four angles had angle-plates under them; the angle-plates under the base were of metal, and there were ornaments at the side of every one.

bbe@1Kings:7:34 @And there were four angle-plates at the four angles of every base, forming part of the structure of the base.

bbe@1Kings:7:35 @And at the top of the base there was a round vessel, half a cubit high;

bbe@1Kings:7:47 @The weight of all these vessels was not measured, because there was such a number of them; it was not possible to get the weight of the brass.

bbe@1Kings:7:51 @So all the work King Solomon had done in the house of the Lord was complete. Then Solomon took the holy things which David his father had given, the silver and the gold and all the vessels, and put them in the store-houses of the house of the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:8:2 @And all the men of Israel came together to King Solomon at the feast, in the month Ethanim, the seventh month.

bbe@1Kings:8:5 @And King Solomon and all the men of Israel who had come together there, were with him before the ark, making offerings of sheep and oxen more than might be numbered.

bbe@1Kings:8:7 @For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.

bbe@1Kings:8:8 @The rods were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place, in front of the inmost room; but they were not seen from outside: and there they are to this day.

bbe@1Kings:8:9 @There was nothing in the ark but the two flat stones which Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made an agreement with the children of Israel when they came out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@1Kings:8:14 @Then, turning his face about, the king gave a blessing to all the men of Israel; and they were all on their feet together.

bbe@1Kings:8:15 @And he said, Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, who himself gave his word to David my father, and with his strong hand has made his word come true, saying,

bbe@1Kings:8:17 @Now it was in the heart of David my father to put up a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@1Kings:8:18 @But the Lord said to David my father, You did well to have in your heart the desire to make a house for my name;

bbe@1Kings:8:20 @And the Lord has made his word come true; for I have taken my father David's place on the seat of the kingdom of Israel, as the Lord gave his word; and I have made a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@1Kings:8:21 @In it I have made a place for the ark, in which is the agreement which the Lord made with our fathers, when he took them out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@1Kings:8:23 @Said, O Lord, the God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven or on the earth; keeping faith and mercy unchanging for your servants, while they go in your ways with all their hearts.

bbe@1Kings:8:24 @And you have kept the word which you gave to your servant David, my father; with your mouth you said it and with your hand you have made it come true this day.

bbe@1Kings:8:25 @So now, O Lord, the God of Israel, let your word to your servant David, my father, come true, when you said, You will never be without a man to take his place on the seat of the kingdom of Israel before me, if only your children give attention to their ways, walking before me as you have done.

bbe@1Kings:8:26 @So now, O God of Israel, it is my prayer that you will make your word come true which you said to your servant David, my father.

bbe@1Kings:8:29 @That your eyes may be open to this house night and day, to this place of which you have said, My name will be there; hearing the prayer which your servant may make, turning to this place.

bbe@1Kings:8:34 @Then give ear in heaven, and let the sin of your people Israel have forgiveness, and take them back again into the land which you gave to their fathers.

bbe@1Kings:8:35 @When heaven is shut up and there is no rain, because of their sin against you; if they make prayers with their faces turned to this place, honouring your name and turning away from their sin when you send trouble on them:

bbe@1Kings:8:36 @Then give ear in heaven, so that the sin of your servants, and of your people Israel, may have forgiveness, when you make clear to them the good way in which they are to go; and send rain on your land which you have given to your people for their heritage.

bbe@1Kings:8:37 @If there is no food in the land, or if there is disease, or if the fruits of the earth are damaged through heat or water, locust or worm; if their towns are shut in by their attackers; whatever trouble, whatever disease there may be:

bbe@1Kings:8:40 @So that they may give you worship all the days of their life in the land which you gave to our fathers.

bbe@1Kings:8:47 @And if they take thought, in the land where they are prisoners, and are turned again to you, crying out in prayer to you in that land, and saying, We are sinners, we have done wrong, we have done evil;

bbe@1Kings:8:48 @And with all their heart and soul are turned again to you, in the land of those who took them prisoners, and make their prayer to you, turning their eyes to this land which you gave to their fathers, and to the town which you took for yourself, and the house which I made for your name:

bbe@1Kings:8:51 @For they are your people and your heritage, which you took out of Egypt, out of the iron fireplace;

bbe@1Kings:8:53 @For you made them separate from all the peoples of the earth, to be your heritage, as you said by Moses your servant, when you took our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.

bbe@1Kings:8:54 @Then Solomon, after making all these prayers and requests for grace to the Lord, got up from his knees before the altar of the Lord, where his hands had been stretched out in prayer to heaven;

bbe@1Kings:8:57 @Now may the Lord our God be with us as he was with our fathers; let him never go away from us or give us up;

bbe@1Kings:8:58 @Turning our hearts to himself, guiding us to go in all his ways, to keep his orders and his laws and his decisions, which he gave to our fathers.

bbe@1Kings:8:60 @So that all the peoples of the earth may see that the Lord is God, and there is no other.

bbe@1Kings:8:64 @The same day the king made holy the middle of the open square in front of the house of the Lord, offering there the burned offering and the meal offering and the fat of the peace-offerings; for there was not room on the brass altar of the Lord for the burned offerings and the meal offerings and the fat of the peace-offerings.

bbe@1Kings:8:65 @So Solomon and all Israel with him, a very great meeting, (for the people had come together from the way into Hamath to the river of Egypt,) kept the feast at that time before the Lord our God, for two weeks, even fourteen days.

bbe@1Kings:9:3 @And the Lord said to him, Your prayers and your requests for grace have come to my ears: I have made holy this house which you have made, and I have put my name there for ever; my eyes and my heart will be there at all times.

bbe@1Kings:9:4 @As for you, if you will go on your way before me, as David your father did, uprightly and with a true heart, doing what I have given you orders to do, keeping my laws and my decisions;

bbe@1Kings:9:5 @Then I will make the seat of your rule over Israel certain for ever, as I gave my word to David your father, saying, You will never be without a man to be king in Israel.

bbe@1Kings:9:6 @But if you are turned from my ways, you or your children, and do not keep my orders and my laws which I have put before you, but go and make yourselves servants to other gods and give them worship:

bbe@1Kings:9:9 @And their answer will be, Because they were turned away from the Lord their God, who took their fathers out of the land of Egypt; they took for themselves other gods and gave them worship and became their servants: that is why the Lord has sent all this evil on them.

bbe@1Kings:9:13 @And he said, What sort of towns are these which you have given me, my brother? So they were named the land of Cabul, to this day.

bbe@1Kings:9:24 @At that time Solomon made Pharaoh's daughter come up from the town of David to the house which he had made for her: then he made the Millo.

bbe@1Kings:9:28 @And they came to Ophir, where they got four hundred and twenty talents of gold, and took it back to King Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:10:2 @And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels weighted down with spices, and stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.

bbe@1Kings:10:3 @And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which the king did not make clear to her.

bbe@1Kings:10:5 @And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.

bbe@1Kings:10:13 @And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what he gave her freely from the impulse of his heart. So she went back to her country, she and her servants.

bbe@1Kings:10:19 @There were six steps going up to it, and the top of it was round at the back, there were arms on the two sides of the seat, and two lions by the side of the arms;

bbe@1Kings:10:20 @And twelve lions were placed on the one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.

bbe@1Kings:10:26 @And Solomon got together war-carriages and horsemen; he had one thousand, four hundred carriages and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king at Jerusalem.

bbe@1Kings:11:3 @He had seven hundred wives, daughters of kings, and three hundred other wives; and through his wives his heart was turned away.

bbe@1Kings:11:4 @For it came about that when Solomon was old, his heart was turned away to other gods by his wives; and his heart was no longer true to the Lord his God as the heart of his father David had been.

bbe@1Kings:11:6 @And Solomon did evil in the eyes of the Lord, not walking in the Lord's ways with all his heart as David his father did.

bbe@1Kings:11:10 @And had given him orders about this very thing, that he was not to go after other gods; but he did not keep the orders of the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:11:12 @I will not do it in your life-time, because of your father David, but I will take it from your son.

bbe@1Kings:11:16 @(For Joab and all Israel were there six months till every male in Edom had been cut off;)

bbe@1Kings:11:17 @Hadad, being still a young boy, went in flight to Egypt, with certain Edomites, servants of his father;

bbe@1Kings:11:21 @Now when Hadad had news in Egypt that David had been put to rest with his fathers, and that Joab, the captain of the army, was dead, he said to Pharaoh, Send me back to my country.

bbe@1Kings:11:23 @And God sent another trouble-maker, Rezon, the son of Eliada, who had gone in flight from his lord, Hadadezer, king of Zobah:

bbe@1Kings:11:24 @He got some men together and made himself captain of a band of outlaws; and went to Damascus and became king there.

bbe@1Kings:11:26 @And there was Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was Zeruah, a widow; and his hand was lifted up against the king.

bbe@1Kings:11:27 @The way in which his hand came to be lifted up against the king was this: Solomon was building the Millo and making good the damaged parts of the town of his father David;

bbe@1Kings:11:33 @Because they are turned away from me to the worship of Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Zidonians, and Chemosh, the god of Moab, and Milcom, the god of the Ammonites; they have not been walking in my ways or doing what is right in my eyes or keeping my laws and my decisions as his father David did.

bbe@1Kings:11:36 @And one tribe I will give to his son, so that David my servant may have a light for ever burning before me in Jerusalem, the town which I have made mine to put my name there.

bbe@1Kings:11:43 @And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Solomon went to rest with his fathers and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:12:1 @And Rehoboam went to Shechem, where all Israel had come together to make him king,

bbe@1Kings:12:2 @And, hearing of it, Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who was still in Egypt, where he had gone in flight from Solomon, and was living there, came back to his town Zeredah, in the hill-country of Ephraim;

bbe@1Kings:12:4 @Your father put a hard yoke on us: if you will make the conditions under which your father kept us down less cruel, and the weight of the yoke he put on us less hard, then we will be your servants.

bbe@1Kings:12:6 @Then King Rehoboam took the opinion of the old men who had been with Solomon his father when he was living, and said, In your opinion, what answer am I to give to this people?

bbe@1Kings:12:9 @And said to them, What is your opinion? What answer are we to give to this people who have said to me, Make less the weight of the yoke which your father put on us?

bbe@1Kings:12:10 @And the young men of his generation said to him, This is the answer to give to the people who came to you saying, Your father put a hard yoke on us; will you make it less? say to them, My little finger is thicker than my father's body;

bbe@1Kings:12:11 @If my father put a hard yoke on you, I will make it harder: my father gave you punishment with whips, but I will give you blows with snakes.

bbe@1Kings:12:14 @But giving them the answer put forward by the young men, saying, My father made your yoke hard, but I will make it harder; my father gave you punishment with whips, but I will give it with snakes.

bbe@1Kings:12:16 @And when all Israel saw that the king would give no attention to them, the people in answer said to the king, What part have we in David? what is our heritage in the son of Jesse? to your tents, O Israel; now see to your people, David. So Israel went away to their tents.

bbe@1Kings:12:21 @When Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, he got together all the men of Judah and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand of his best fighting-men, to make war against Israel and get the kingdom back for Rehoboam, the son of Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:12:24 @The Lord has said, You are not to go to war against your brothers, the children of Israel; go back, every man to his house, because this thing is my purpose. So they gave ear to the word of the Lord, and went back, as the Lord had said.

bbe@1Kings:12:25 @Then Jeroboam made the town of Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim a strong place, and was living there; and from there he went out and did the same to Penuel.

bbe@1Kings:12:29 @And he put one in Beth-el and the other in Dan.

bbe@1Kings:12:30 @And this became a sin in Israel; for the people went to give worship to the one at Beth-el, and to the other at Dan.

bbe@1Kings:12:33 @He went up to the altar he had made in Beth-el on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, the month fixed by him at his pleasure; and he gave orders for a feast for the people of Israel, and went up to the altar, and there he made the smoke of his offerings go up.

bbe@1Kings:13:1 @Then a man of God came from Judah by the order of the Lord to Beth-el, where Jeroboam was by the altar, burning offerings.

bbe@1Kings:13:10 @So he went another way, and not by the way he came to Beth-el.

bbe@1Kings:13:11 @Now there was an old prophet living in Beth-el; and one of his sons came and gave him word of all the man of God had done that day in Beth-el, and they gave their father an account of the words he had said to the king.

bbe@1Kings:13:12 @Then their father said to them, Which way did he go? Now his sons had seen which way the man of God who came from Judah had gone.

bbe@1Kings:13:17 @For the Lord said to me, You are not to take food or water there, or go back again by the way you came.

bbe@1Kings:13:22 @But have come back, and have taken food and water in this place where he said you were to take no food or water; your dead body will not be put to rest with your fathers.

bbe@1Kings:13:24 @And he went on his way; but on the road a lion came rushing at him and put him to death; and his dead body was stretched in the road with the ass by its side, and the lion was there by the body.

bbe@1Kings:13:25 @And some men, going by, saw the body stretched out in the road with the lion by its side; and they came and gave news of it in the town where the old prophet was living.

bbe@1Kings:13:30 @And he put the body in the resting-place made ready for himself, weeping and sorrowing over it, saying, O my brother!

bbe@1Kings:13:33 @After this Jeroboam, not turning back from his evil ways, still made priests for his altars from among all the people; he made a priest of anyone desiring it, so that there might be priests of the high places.

bbe@1Kings:14:2 @And Jeroboam said to his wife, Now come, put on different clothing so that you may not seem to be the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Shiloh; see, Ahijah is there, the prophet who said I would be king over this people.

bbe@1Kings:14:5 @And the Lord had said to Ahijah, The wife of Jeroboam is coming to get news from you about her son, who is ill; give her such and such an answer; for she will make herself seem to be another woman.

bbe@1Kings:14:6 @Then Ahijah, hearing the sound of her footsteps coming in at the door, said, Come in, O wife of Jeroboam; why do you make yourself seem like another? for I am sent to you with bitter news.

bbe@1Kings:14:9 @But you have done evil more than any before you, and have made for yourself other gods, and images of metal, moving me to wrath, and turning your back on me.

bbe@1Kings:14:15 @And even now the hand of the Lord has come down on Israel, shaking it like a river-grass in the water; and, uprooting Israel from this good land, which he gave to their fathers, he will send them this way and that on the other side of the River; because they have made for themselves images, moving the Lord to wrath.

bbe@1Kings:14:20 @And Jeroboam was king for twenty-two years, and was put to rest with his fathers, and Nadab his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:14:21 @And Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, was king in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king, and he was king for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the town which the Lord had made his out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there; his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman.

bbe@1Kings:14:22 @And Judah did evil in the eyes of the Lord, and made him more angry than their fathers had done by their sins.

bbe@1Kings:14:24 @And more than this, there were those in the land who were used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods, doing the same disgusting crimes as the nations which the Lord had sent out before the children of Israel.

bbe@1Kings:14:27 @So in their place King Rehoboam had other body-covers made of brass, and gave them into the care of the captains of the armed men who were stationed at the door of the king's house.

bbe@1Kings:14:30 @And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

bbe@1Kings:14:31 @And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman. And Abijam his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:15:2 @For three years he was king in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.

bbe@1Kings:15:3 @And he did the same sins which his father had done before him: his heart was not completely true to the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father.

bbe@1Kings:15:7 @Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

bbe@1Kings:15:8 @Then Abijam went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David: and Asa his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:15:10 @And he was king for forty-one years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.

bbe@1Kings:15:11 @Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as David his father did.

bbe@1Kings:15:12 @Those used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods he sent out of the country, and he took away all the images which his fathers had made.

bbe@1Kings:15:13 @And he would not let Maacah his mother be queen, because she had made a disgusting image for Asherah; and Asa had the image cut down and burned by the stream Kidron.

bbe@1Kings:15:15 @He took into the house of the Lord all the things which his father had made holy, and those which he himself had made holy, silver and gold and vessels.

bbe@1Kings:15:16 @Now there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days.

bbe@1Kings:15:19 @Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you an offering of silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me

bbe@1Kings:15:22 @Then King Asa got all Judah together, making every man come; and they took away the stones and the wood with which Baasha was building Ramah, and King Asa made use of them for building Geba in the land of Benjamin, and Mizpah.

bbe@1Kings:15:24 @So Asa went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:15:26 @He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, copying the evil ways of his father, and the sin which he did and made Israel do.

bbe@1Kings:15:29 @And straight away when he became king, he sent destruction on all the offspring of Jeroboam; there was not one living person of all the family of Jeroboam whom he did not put to death, so the word of the Lord, which he said by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite, came about;

bbe@1Kings:15:32 @And there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days.

bbe@1Kings:16:6 @And Baasha went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth at Tirzah; and Elah his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:16:21 @Then there was a division among the people of Israel; half the people were for making Tibni, son of Ginath, king, and half were supporting Omri

bbe@1Kings:16:22 @But the supporters of Omri overcame those who were on the side of Tibni, the son of Ginath; and death came to Tibni and to his brother Joram at that time: and Omri became king in the place of Tibni.

bbe@1Kings:16:24 @He got the hill Samaria from Shemer for the price of two talents of silver, and he made a town there, building it on the hill and naming it Samaria, after Shemer the owner of the hill.

bbe@1Kings:16:28 @So Omri went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria; and Ahab his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:16:33 @And Ahab made an image of Asherah and did more than all the kings of Israel before him to make the Lord, the God of Israel, angry.

bbe@1Kings:17:1 @And Elijah the Tishbite, of Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, By the living Lord, the God of Israel, whose servant I am, there will be no dew or rain in these years, but only at my word.

bbe@1Kings:17:3 @Go from here in the direction of the east, and keep yourself in a secret place by the stream Cherith, east of Jordan.

bbe@1Kings:17:4 @The water of the stream will be your drink, and by my orders the ravens will give you food there.

bbe@1Kings:17:5 @So he went and did as the Lord said, living by the stream Cherith, east of Jordan.

bbe@1Kings:17:7 @Now after a time the stream became dry, because there was no rain in the land.

bbe@1Kings:17:9 @Up! go now to Zarephath, in Zidon, and make your living-place there; I have given orders to a widow woman there to see that you have food.

bbe@1Kings:17:10 @So he got up and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the door of the town, he saw a widow woman getting sticks together; and crying out to her he said, Will you give me a little water in a vessel for my drink?

bbe@1Kings:17:11 @And when she was going to get it, he said to her, And get me with it a small bit of bread.

bbe@1Kings:17:12 @Then she said, By the life of the Lord your God, I have nothing but a little meal in my store, and a drop of oil in the bottle; and now I am getting two sticks together so that I may go in and make it ready for me and my son, so that we may have a meal before our death.

bbe@1Kings:17:13 @And Elijah said to her, Have no fear; go and do as you have said, but first make me a little cake of it and come and give it to me, and then make something for yourself and your son.

bbe@1Kings:17:15 @So she went and did as Elijah said; and she and he and her family had food for a long time.

bbe@1Kings:17:17 @Now after this, the son of the woman of the house became ill, so ill that there was no breath in him.

bbe@1Kings:17:19 @And he said to her, Give your son to me. And lifting him out of her arms, he took him up to his room and put him down on his bed.

bbe@1Kings:17:20 @And crying to the Lord he said, O Lord my God, have you sent evil even on the widow whose guest I am, by causing her son's death?

bbe@1Kings:17:21 @And stretching herself out on the child three times, he made his prayer to the Lord, saying, O Lord my God, be pleased to let this child's life come back to him again.

bbe@1Kings:17:23 @And Elijah took the child down from his room into the house and gave him to his mother and said to her, See, your son is living

bbe@1Kings:18:2 @So Elijah went to let Ahab see him. Now there was no food to be had in Samaria.

bbe@1Kings:18:5 @And Ahab said to Obadiah, Come, let us go through all the country, to all the fountains of water and all the rivers, and see if there is any grass to be had for the horses and the transport beasts, so that we may be able to keep some of the beasts from destruction.

bbe@1Kings:18:6 @So they went through all the country, covering it between them; Ahab went in one direction by himself, and Obadiah went in another by himself.

bbe@1Kings:18:8 @And Elijah in answer said, It is I; now go and say to your lord, Elijah is here.

bbe@1Kings:18:10 @By the life of the Lord your God, there is not a nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent in search of you; and when they said, He is not here; he made them take an oath that they had not seen you

bbe@1Kings:18:11 @And now you say, Go, say to your lord, Elijah is here.

bbe@1Kings:18:12 @And straight away, when I have gone from you, the spirit of the Lord will take you away, I have no idea where, so that when I come and give word to Ahab, and he sees you not, he will put me to death: though I, your servant, have been a worshipper of the Lord from my earliest years.

bbe@1Kings:18:14 @And now you say, Go and say to your Lord, Elijah is here; and he will put me to death.

bbe@1Kings:18:19 @Now send, and get Israel together before me at Mount Carmel, with the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal who get their food at Jezebel's table.

bbe@1Kings:18:20 @So Ahab sent for all the children of Israel, and got the prophets together at Mount Carmel.

bbe@1Kings:18:23 @Now, let them give us two oxen; and let them take one for themselves, and have it cut up, and put it on the wood, but put no fire under it; I will get the other ox ready, and put it on the wood, and put no fire under it.

bbe@1Kings:18:25 @Then Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, Take one ox for yourselves and get it ready first, for there are more of you; and make your prayers to your god, but put no fire under.

bbe@1Kings:18:26 @So they took the ox which was given them, and made it ready, crying out to Baal from morning till the middle of the day, and saying, O Baal, give ear to us. But there was no voice and no answer. And they were jumping up and down before the altar they had made.

bbe@1Kings:18:29 @And from the middle of the day they went on with their prayers till the time of the offering; but there was no voice, or any answer, or any who gave attention to them.

bbe@1Kings:18:40 @And Elijah said to them, Take the prophets of Baal, let not one of them get away. So they took them, and Elijah made them go down to the stream Kishon, and put them to death there.

bbe@1Kings:18:41 @Then Elijah said to Ahab, Up! take food and drink, for there is a sound of much rain.

bbe@1Kings:18:43 @And he said to his servant, Go now, and take a look in the direction of the sea. And he went up, and after looking said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times; and he went seven times.

bbe@1Kings:18:45 @And after a very little time, the heaven became black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab went in his carriage to Jezreel.

bbe@1Kings:19:3 @And he got up, fearing for his life, and went in flight, and came to Beer-sheba in Judah, parting there from his servant;

bbe@1Kings:19:4 @While he himself went a day's journey into the waste land, and took a seat under a broom-plant, desiring for himself only death; for he said, It is enough: now, O Lord, take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers.

bbe@1Kings:19:9 @And there he went into a hole in the rock for the night; then the word of the Lord came to him, saying, What are you doing here, Elijah?

bbe@1Kings:19:11 @Then he said, Go out and take your place on the mountain before the Lord. Then the Lord went by, and mountains were parted by the force of a great wind, and rocks were broken before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind. And after the wind there was an earth-shock, but the Lord was not in the earth-shock.

bbe@1Kings:19:13 @And Elijah, hearing it, went out, covering his face with his robe, and took his place in the opening of the hole. And there a voice came to him saying, What are you doing here, Elijah?

bbe@1Kings:19:15 @And the Lord said to him, Go back on your way through the waste land to Damascus; and when you come there, put the holy oil on Hazael to make him king over Aram;

bbe@1Kings:19:19 @So he went away from there and came across Elisha, the son of Shaphat, ploughing with twelve yoke of oxen, he himself walking with the twelfth; and Elijah went up to him and put his robe on him.

bbe@1Kings:19:20 @And letting the oxen be where they were, he came running after Elijah, and said, Only let me give a kiss to my father and mother, and then I will come after you. But he said to him, Go back again; for what have I done to you?

bbe@1Kings:20:1 @Now Ben-hadad, king of Aram, got all his army together, and thirty-two kings with him, and horses and carriages of war; he went up and made war on Samaria, shutting it in.

bbe@1Kings:20:10 @Then Ben-hadad sent to him, saying, May the gods' punishment be on me if there is enough of the dust of Samaria for all the people at my feet to take some in their hands.

bbe@1Kings:20:15 @Then he got together the servants of all the chiefs who were over the divisions of the land, two hundred and thirty-two of them; and after them, he got together all the people, all the children of Israel, seven thousand.

bbe@1Kings:20:25 @And get together another army like the one which came to destruction, horse for horse, and carriage for carriage; and let us make war on them in the lowlands, and certainly we will be stronger than they. And he gave ear to what they said, and did so.

bbe@1Kings:20:26 @So, a year later, Ben-hadad got the Aramaeans together and went up to Aphek to make war on Israel.

bbe@1Kings:20:27 @And the children of Israel got themselves together, and food was made ready and they went against them; the tents of the children of Israel were like two little flocks of goats before them, but all the country was full of the Aramaeans.

bbe@1Kings:20:29 @Now the two armies kept their positions facing one another for seven days. And on the seventh day the fight was started; and the children of Israel put to the sword a hundred thousand Aramaean footmen in one day.

bbe@1Kings:20:30 @But the rest went in flight to Aphek, into the town, where a wall came down on the twenty-seven thousand who were still living. And Ben-hadad went in flight into the town, into an inner room.

bbe@1Kings:20:32 @So they put on haircloth, and cords on their heads, and came to the king of Israel and said, Your servant Ben-hadad says, Let me now keep my life. And he said, Is he still living? he is my brother.

bbe@1Kings:20:33 @Now the men took it as a sign, and quickly took up his words; and they said, Ben-hadad is your brother. Then he said, Go and get him. So Ben-hadad came out to him and he made him get up into his carriage.

bbe@1Kings:20:34 @And Ben-hadad said to him, The towns my father took from your father I will give back; and you may make streets for yourself in Damascus as my father did in Samaria. And as for me, at the price of this agreement you will let me go. So he made an agreement with him and let him go.

bbe@1Kings:20:37 @Then he came across another man, and said, Give me a wound. And the man gave him a blow wounding him.

bbe@1Kings:20:39 @And when the king went by, crying out to him he said, Your servant went out into the fight; and a man came out to me with another man and said, Keep this man: if by any chance he gets away, your life will be the price of his life, or you will have to give a talent of silver in payment.

bbe@1Kings:21:3 @But Naboth said to Ahab, By the Lord, far be it from me to give you the heritage of my fathers.

bbe@1Kings:21:4 @So Ahab came into his house bitter and angry because Naboth the Jezreelite had said to him, I will not give you the heritage of my fathers. And stretching himself on the bed with his face turned away, he would take no food.

bbe@1Kings:21:6 @And he said to her, Because I was talking to Naboth the Jezreelite, and I said to him, Let me have your vine-garden for a price, or, if it is pleasing to you, I will give you another vine-garden for it: and he said, I will not give you my vine-garden.

bbe@1Kings:21:15 @Then Jezebel, hearing that Naboth had been stoned and was dead, said to Ahab, Get up and take as your heritage the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he would not give you for money, for Naboth is no longer living but is dead.

bbe@1Kings:21:16 @So Ahab, hearing that Naboth was dead, went down to the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite to take it as his heritage.

bbe@1Kings:21:18 @Go down to Ahab, king of Israel, in Samaria; see, he is in the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite, where he has gone to take it as his heritage.

bbe@1Kings:21:19 @Say to him, The Lord says, Have you put a man to death and taken his heritage? Then say to him, The Lord says, In the place where dogs have been drinking the blood of Naboth, there will your blood become the drink of dogs.

bbe@1Kings:21:23 @And of Jezebel the Lord said, Jezebel will become food for dogs in the heritage of Jezreel.

bbe@1Kings:21:25 @(There was no one like Ahab, who gave himself up to do evil in the eyes of the Lord, moved to it by Jezebel his wife.

bbe@1Kings:22:1 @Now for three years there was no war between Aram and Israel.

bbe@1Kings:22:6 @So the king of Israel got all the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, Am I to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And they said, Go up: for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.

bbe@1Kings:22:7 @But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no other prophet of the Lord here from whom we may get directions?

bbe@1Kings:22:8 @And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, Micaiah, son of Imlah; but I have no love for him, for he is a prophet of evil to me and not of good. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

bbe@1Kings:22:20 @And the Lord said, How may Ahab be tricked into going up to Ramoth-gilead to his death? And one said one thing and one another.

bbe@1Kings:22:24 @Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, came near and gave Micaiah a blow on the side of the face, saying, Where is the spirit of the Lord whose word is in you?

bbe@1Kings:22:34 @And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded.

bbe@1Kings:22:38 @And the war-carriage was washed by the pool of Samaria, which was the bathing-place of the loose women, and the dogs were drinking his blood there, as the Lord had said.

bbe@1Kings:22:40 @So Ahab was put to rest with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:22:42 @Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was king for twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.

bbe@1Kings:22:43 @He did as Asa his father had done, not turning away from it, but doing what was right in the eyes of the Lord;

bbe@1Kings:22:47 @He put an end to the rest of those who were used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods, all those who were still in the land in the time of his father Asa.

bbe@1Kings:22:48 @At that time there was no king in Edom;

bbe@1Kings:22:51 @Then Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Jehoram his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:22:53 @He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, going in the ways of his father and his mother, and in the ways of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who made Israel do evil.

bbe@1Kings:22:54 @He was a servant and worshipper of Baal, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath, as his father had done.

bbe@2Kings:1:3 @But the angel of the Lord said to Elijah the Tishbite, Go now, and, meeting the men sent by the king of Samaria, say to them, Is it because there is no God in Israel, that you are going to get directions from Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?

bbe@2Kings:1:6 @And they said to him, On our way we had a meeting with a man who said, Go back to the king who sent you and say to him, The Lord says, Is it because there is no God in Israel that you send to put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? For this reason, you will not come down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you.

bbe@2Kings:1:8 @And they said in answer, He was a man clothed in a coat of hair, with a leather band about his body. Then he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.

bbe@2Kings:1:9 @Then the king sent to him a captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he went up to him where he was seated on the top of a hill, and said to him, O man of God, the king has said, Come down.

bbe@2Kings:1:11 @Then the king sent another captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he said to Elijah, O man of God, the king says, Come down quickly.

bbe@2Kings:2:2 @And Elijah said to Elisha, Come no farther for the Lord has sent me to Beth-el. But Elisha said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went down to Beth-el.

bbe@2Kings:2:4 @Then Elijah said to him, Come no farther, for the Lord has sent me to Jericho. But he said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went on to Jericho.

bbe@2Kings:2:6 @Then Elijah said to him, Come no farther, for the Lord has sent me to Jordan. But he said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went on together.

bbe@2Kings:2:9 @And when they had come to the other side, Elijah said to Elisha, Say what you would have me do for you before I am taken from you. And Elisha said, Be pleased to let a special measure of your spirit be on me.

bbe@2Kings:2:11 @And while they went on their way, going on talking together, suddenly there were carriages and horses of fire separating them from one another and Elijah went up to heaven in a great wind.

bbe@2Kings:2:12 @And when Elisha saw it he gave a cry, My father, my father, the carriages of Israel and its horsemen! And he saw him no longer; and he was full of grief.

bbe@2Kings:2:14 @And he took Elijah's robe, which had been dropped from him, and giving the water a blow with it, said, Where is the Lord, the God of Elijah? and at his blow the waters were parted this way and that; and Elisha went over.

bbe@2Kings:2:16 @And they said, Your servants have with us here fifty strong men; be pleased to let them go in search of Elijah; for it may be that the spirit of the Lord has taken him up and put him down on some mountain or in some valley. But he said, Do not send them.

bbe@2Kings:2:23 @Then from there he went up to Beth-el; and on his way, some little boys came out from the town and made sport of him, crying, Go up, old no-hair! go up, old no-hair!

bbe@2Kings:2:25 @From there he went to Mount Carmel, and came back from there to Samaria.

bbe@2Kings:3:2 @He did evil in the eyes of the Lord; but not like his father and his mother, for he put away the stone pillar of Baal which his father had made.

bbe@2Kings:3:6 @At that time, King Jehoram went out from Samaria and got all Israel together in fighting order.

bbe@2Kings:3:9 @So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom by a roundabout way for seven days: and there was no water for the army or for the beasts they had with them.

bbe@2Kings:3:10 @And the king of Israel said, Here is trouble: for the Lord has got these three kings together to give them into the hands of Moab

bbe@2Kings:3:11 @But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no prophet of the Lord here, through whom we may get directions from the Lord? And one of the king of Israel's men said in answer, Elisha, the son of Shaphat, is here, who was servant to Elijah.

bbe@2Kings:3:13 @But Elisha said to the king of Israel, What have I to do with you? go to the prophets of your father and your mother. And the king of Israel said, No; for the Lord has got these three kings together to give them up into the hands of Moab.

bbe@2Kings:3:21 @Now all Moab, hearing that the kings had come to make war against them, got together all who were able to take up arms and went forward to the edge of the country.

bbe@2Kings:3:23 @Then they said, This is blood: it is clear that destruction has come on the kings; they have been fighting one another: now come, Moab, let us take their goods.

bbe@2Kings:3:25 @Pulling down the towns, covering every good field with stones, stopping up all the water-springs, and cutting down all the good trees; they went on driving Moab before them till only in Kir-hareseth were there any Moabites; and the fighting-men went round the town raining stones on it.

bbe@2Kings:3:27 @Then he took his oldest son, who would have been king after him, offering him as a burned offering on the wall. So there was great wrath against Israel; and they went away from him, back to their country.

bbe@2Kings:4:2 @Then Elisha said to her, What am I to do for you? say now, what have you in the house? And she said, Your servant has nothing in the house but a pot of oil.

bbe@2Kings:4:5 @So she went away, and when the door was shut on her and her sons, they took the vessels to her and she put oil into them.

bbe@2Kings:4:6 @And when all the vessels were full, she said to her son, Get me another vessel. And he said, There are no more. And the flow of oil was stopped.

bbe@2Kings:4:8 @Now there came a day when Elisha went to Shunem, and there was a woman of high position living there, who made him come in and have a meal with her. And after that, every time he went by, he went into her house for a meal.

bbe@2Kings:4:9 @And she said to her husband, Now I see that this is a holy man of God, who comes by day after day.

bbe@2Kings:4:10 @So let us make a little room on the wall; and put a bed there for him, and a table and a seat and a light; so that when he comes to us, he will be able to go in there

bbe@2Kings:4:11 @Now one day, when he had gone there, he went into the little room and took his rest there.

bbe@2Kings:4:13 @And he said to him, Now say to her, See, you have taken all this trouble for us; what is to be done for you? will you have any request made for you to the king or the captain of the army? But she said, I am living among my people.

bbe@2Kings:4:14 @So he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi made answer, Still there is this, she has no son and her husband is old.

bbe@2Kings:4:15 @Then he said, Send for her. And in answer to his voice she took her place at the door.

bbe@2Kings:4:17 @Then the woman became with child and gave birth to a son at the time named, in the year after, as Elisha had said to her.

bbe@2Kings:4:18 @Now one day, when the child was older, he went out to his father to where the grain was being cut.

bbe@2Kings:4:19 @And he said to his father, My head, my head! And the father said to a servant, Take him in to his mother.

bbe@2Kings:4:20 @And he took him in to his mother, and she took him on her knees and kept him there till the middle of the day, when his life went from him.

bbe@2Kings:4:22 @And she said to her husband, Send me one of the servants and one of the asses so that I may go quickly to the man of God and come back again.

bbe@2Kings:4:24 @Then she made the ass ready and said to her servant, Keep driving on; do not make a stop without orders from me.

bbe@2Kings:4:25 @So she went, and came to Mount Carmel, to the man of God. And when the man of God saw her coming in his direction, he said to Gehazi, his servant, See, there is the Shunammite;

bbe@2Kings:4:26 @Go quickly to her, and on meeting her say to her, Are you well? and your husband and the child, are they well? And she said in answer, All is well.

bbe@2Kings:4:27 @And when she came to where the man of God was on the hill, she put her hands round his feet; and Gehazi came near with the purpose of pushing her away; but the man of God said, Let her be, for her soul is bitter in her; and the Lord has kept it secret from me, and has not given me word of it.

bbe@2Kings:4:30 @But the mother of the child said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not go back without you. So he got up and went with her.

bbe@2Kings:4:31 @And Gehazi went on before them and put the stick on the child's face; but there was no voice, and no one gave attention. So he went back, and meeting him gave him the news, saying, The child is not awake.

bbe@2Kings:4:37 @And she came in, and went down on her face to the earth at his feet; then she took her son in her arms and went out.

bbe@2Kings:4:38 @And Elisha went back to Gilgal, now there was very little food in the land; and the sons of the prophets were seated before him. And he said to his servant, Put the great pot on the fire, and make soup for the sons of the prophets.

bbe@2Kings:4:40 @Then they gave the men soup from the pot. And while they were drinking the soup, they gave a cry, and said, O man of God, there is death in the pot; and they were not able to take any more food.

bbe@2Kings:4:41 @But he said, Get some meal. And he put it into the pot, and said, Now give it to the people so that they may have food. And there was nothing bad in the pot.

bbe@2Kings:4:43 @But his servant said, How am I to put this before a hundred men? But he said, Give it to the people for food; for the Lord says, There will be food for them and some over.

bbe@2Kings:4:44 @So he put it before them, and they had a meal and there was more than enough, as the Lord had said.

bbe@2Kings:5:3 @And she said to her master's wife, If only my lord would go to the prophet in Samaria, he would make him well.

bbe@2Kings:5:8 @Now Elisha, the man of God, hearing that the king of Israel had done this, sent to the king, saying, Why are you troubled? send the man to me, so that he may see that there is a prophet in Israel.

bbe@2Kings:5:15 @Then he went back to the man of God, with all his train, and, taking his place before him, said, Now I am certain that there is no God in all the earth, but only in Israel: now then, take an offering from me.

bbe@2Kings:5:17 @Then Naaman said, If you will not, then let there be given to your servant as much earth as two beasts are able to take on their backs; because from now on, your servant will make no offering or burned offering to other gods, but only to the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:5:18 @But may your servant have the Lord's forgiveness for this one thing: when my master goes into the house of Rimmon for worship there, supported on my arm, and my head is bent in the house of Rimmon; when his head is bent in the house of Rimmon, may your servant have the Lord's forgiveness for this thing.

bbe@2Kings:5:25 @Then he came in and took his place before his master. And Elisha said to him, Where have you come from, Gehazi? And he said, Your servant went nowhere.

bbe@2Kings:6:1 @Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, There is not room enough for us in the place where we are living under your care;

bbe@2Kings:6:2 @So let us go to Jordan, and let everyone get to work cutting boards, and we will make a living-place for ourselves there. And he said to them, Go, then.

bbe@2Kings:6:5 @But one of them, while cutting a board, let the head of his axe go into the water; and he gave a cry, and said, This is a bad business, my master, for it is another's.

bbe@2Kings:6:6 @And the man of God said, Where did it go in? and when he saw the place where it had gone into the water, cutting a stick, he put it into the water, and the iron came up to the top of the water.

bbe@2Kings:6:9 @And the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, Take care to keep away from that place, for the Aramaeans are waiting there in secret.

bbe@2Kings:6:10 @So the king of Israel sent to the place where the man of God had said there was danger, and kept clear of it more than once.

bbe@2Kings:6:13 @Then he said, Go and see where he is, so that I may send and get him. And news came to him that he was in Dothan.

bbe@2Kings:6:14 @So he sent there horses and carriages and a great army; and they came by night, circling the town

bbe@2Kings:6:21 @And the king of Israel, when he saw them, said to Elisha, My father, am I to put them to the sword?

bbe@2Kings:6:24 @Now after this, Ben-hadad, king of Aram, got together all his army and went up to make an attack on Samaria, shutting the town in on all sides with his forces.

bbe@2Kings:6:27 @And he said, If the Lord does not give you help, where am I to get help for you? from the grain-floor or the grape-crusher?

bbe@2Kings:6:28 @And the king said to her, What is troubling you? And she said in answer, This woman said to me, Give your son to be our food today, and we will have my son tomorrow.

bbe@2Kings:6:29 @So, boiling my son, we had a meal of him; and on the day after I said to her, Now give your son for our food; but she has put her son in a secret place.

bbe@2Kings:6:32 @But Elisha was in his house, and the responsible men were seated there with him; and before the king got there, Elisha said to those who were with him, Do you see how this cruel and violent man has sent to take away my life?

bbe@2Kings:7:3 @Now there were four lepers seated at the doorway into the town: and they said to one another, Why are we waiting here for death?

bbe@2Kings:7:4 @If we say, We will go into the town, there is no food in the town, and we will come to our end there; and if we go on waiting here, death will come to us. Come then, let us give ourselves up to the army of Aram: if they let us go on living, then life will be ours; and if they put us to death, then death will be ours.

bbe@2Kings:7:5 @So in the half light they got up to go to the tents of Aram; but when they came to the outer line of tents, there was no one there.

bbe@2Kings:7:6 @For the Lord had made the sound of carriages and horses, and the noise of a great army, come to the ears of the Aramaeans, so that they said to one another, Truly, the king of Israel has got the kings of the Hittites and of the Egyptians for a price to make an attack on us.

bbe@2Kings:7:8 @And when those lepers came to the outer line of tents, they went into one tent, and had food and drink, and took from it silver and gold and clothing, which they put in a secret place; then they came back and went into another tent from which they took more goods, which they put away in a secret place.

bbe@2Kings:7:9 @Then they said to one another, We are not doing right. Today is a day of good news, and we say nothing: if we go on waiting here till the morning, punishment will come to us. So let us go and give the news to those of the king's house.

bbe@2Kings:7:10 @So they came in, and, crying out to the door-keepers of the town, they gave them the news, saying, We came to the tents of the Aramaeans, and there was no one there and no voice of man, only the horses and the asses in their places, and the tents as they were.

bbe@2Kings:7:13 @And one of his servants said in answer, Send men and let them take five of the horses which we still have in the town; if they keep their lives they will be the same as those of Israel who are still living here; if they come to their death they will be the same as all those of Israel who have gone to destruction: let us send and see.

bbe@2Kings:7:17 @And the king gave authority to that captain, on whose arm he was supported, to have control over the doorway into the town; but he was crushed to death there under the feet of the people, as the man of God had said when the king went down to him.

bbe@2Kings:8:1 @Now Elisha had said to the woman whose son he had given back to life, Go now, with all the people of your house, and get a living-place for yourselves wherever you are able; for by the word of the Lord, there will be great need of food in the land; and this will go on for seven years.

bbe@2Kings:8:2 @So the woman got up and did as the man of God said; and she and the people of her house were living in the land of the Philistines for seven years.

bbe@2Kings:8:3 @And when the seven years were ended, the woman came back from the land of the Philistines and went to the king with a request for her house and her land.

bbe@2Kings:8:5 @And while he was giving the king the story of how Elisha had given life to the dead, the woman whose son had come back to life came to the king with a request for her house and her land. And Gehazi said, My lord king, this is the woman and this is her son, whose life Elisha gave back to him.

bbe@2Kings:8:6 @And in answer to the king's questions, the woman gave him all the story. So the king gave orders to one of his unsexed servants, saying, Give her back all her property, and all the produce of her fields from the day when she went away from the land up till now.

bbe@2Kings:8:24 @And Joram went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David: and Ahaziah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:8:26 @Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri, king of Israel.

bbe@2Kings:9:2 @And when you get there, go in search of Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi; and go in and make him get up from among his brothers, and take him to an inner room.

bbe@2Kings:9:5 @And when he came, he saw the captains of the army seated together; and he said, I have something to say to you, O captain. And Jehu said, To which of us? And he said, To you, O captain.

bbe@2Kings:9:10 @And Jezebel will become food for the dogs in the heritage of Jezreel, and there will be no one to put her body into the earth. Then, opening the door, he went in flight.

bbe@2Kings:9:16 @So Jehu got into his carriage and went to Jezreel, for Joram was ill in bed there; and Ahaziah, king of Judah, had come down to see Joram.

bbe@2Kings:9:22 @Now when Joram saw Jehu he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he said in answer, What peace is possible while all the land is full of the disgusting sins of your mother Jezebel, and her secret arts?

bbe@2Kings:9:25 @Then Jehu said to Bidkar, his captain, Take him up, and put him in the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for is not that day in your memory when you and I together on our horses were going after Ahab, his father, and the Lord put this fate on him, saying:

bbe@2Kings:9:27 @Now when Ahaziah, king of Judah, saw this, he went in flight by the way of the garden house. And Jehu came after him and said, Put him to death in the same way; and they gave him a death-wound in his carriage, on the slope up to Gur, by Ibleam; and he went in flight to Megiddo, where death came to him.

bbe@2Kings:9:28 @And his servants took him in a carriage to Jerusalem, and put him into the earth with his fathers in the town of David.

bbe@2Kings:9:30 @And when Jehu came to Jezreel, Jezebel had news of it; and, painting her eyes and dressing her hair with ornaments, she put her head out of the window.

bbe@2Kings:9:33 @And he said, Take her and put her out of the window. So they sent her down with force, and her blood went in a shower on the wall and on the horses; and she was crushed under their feet.

bbe@2Kings:9:34 @And he came in, and took food and drink; then he said, Now see to this cursed woman, and put her body into the earth, for she is a king's daughter.

bbe@2Kings:9:35 @And they went out to put her body into the earth, but nothing of her was to be seen, only the bones of her head, and her feet, and parts of her hands.

bbe@2Kings:9:36 @So they came back and gave him word of it. And he said, This is what the Lord said by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the heritage of Jezreel the flesh of Jezebel will become food for dogs;

bbe@2Kings:9:37 @And the dead body of Jezebel will be like waste dropped on the face of the earth in the heritage of Jezreel; so that they will not be able to say, This is Jezebel.

bbe@2Kings:10:1 @Now there were in Samaria seventy of Ahab's sons. And Jehu sent letters to Samaria, to the rulers of the town, and to the responsible men, and to those who had the care of the sons of Ahab, saying,

bbe@2Kings:10:3 @Take the best and most upright of your master's sons, and make him king in his father's place, and put up a fight for your master's family.

bbe@2Kings:10:9 @And in the morning he went out and, stopping, said to all the people there, You are upright men: it is true that I made designs against my master, and put him to death; but who is responsible for the death of all these?

bbe@2Kings:10:11 @So Jehu put to death all the rest of the seed of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his relations and his near friends and his priests, till there were no more of them.

bbe@2Kings:10:13 @When he came across the brothers of Ahaziah, king of Judah, and said, Who are you? And they said, We are the brothers of Ahaziah, king of Judah; we are going down to see the children of the king and of the queen.

bbe@2Kings:10:15 @And when he had gone away from there, he came across Jehonadab, the son of Rechab: and he said good-day to him, and said to him, Is your heart true to mine, as mine is to yours? And Jehonadab in answer said, It is; and Jehu said, If it is, give me your hand. And he gave him his hand, and he made him come up into his carriage.

bbe@2Kings:10:17 @And when he came to Samaria, he put to death all those of Ahab's family who were still in Samaria, till there were no more of them, as the Lord had said to Elijah.

bbe@2Kings:10:18 @Then Jehu got all the people together and said to them, Ahab was Baal's servant in a small way, but Jehu will be his servant on a great scale.

bbe@2Kings:10:20 @And Jehu said, Let there be a special holy meeting for the worship of Baal. So a public statement was made.

bbe@2Kings:10:26 @And they took out the image of Asherah from the house of Baal, and had it burned.

bbe@2Kings:10:35 @And Jehu went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:11:1 @Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she had all the rest of the seed of the kingdom put to death.

bbe@2Kings:11:14 @And looking, she saw the king in his regular place by the pillar, and the captains and the horns near him; and all the people of the land giving signs of joy and sounding the horns. Then Athaliah, violently parting her robes, gave a cry, saying, Broken faith, broken faith!

bbe@2Kings:11:15 @Then Jehoiada the priest gave orders to those who were placed in authority over the army, saying, Take her outside the lines, and let anyone who goes after her be put to death with the sword, for he said, Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:11:16 @So they put their hands on her, and she went to the king's house by the doorway of the horses, and there she was put to death.

bbe@2Kings:12:1 @In the seventh year of Jehu's rule, Jehoash became king; and he was ruling for forty years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.

bbe@2Kings:12:5 @Let the priests take, every man from his friends and neighbours, to make good what is damaged in the house, wherever it is to be seen.

bbe@2Kings:12:7 @Then King Jehoash sent for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said to them, Why have you not made good what is damaged in the house? now take no more money from your neighbours, but give it for the building up of the house.

bbe@2Kings:12:10 @And when they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king's scribe and the high priest came and put it in bags, noting the amount of all the money there was in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:12:18 @Then Jehoash, king of Judah, took all the holy things which Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah his fathers, the kings of Judah, had given to the Lord, together with the things he himself had given, and all the gold in the Temple store and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael, king of Aram; and he went away from Jerusalem.

bbe@2Kings:12:21 @And Jozacar, the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad, the son of Shomer, his servants, came to him and put him to death; and they put him into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Amaziah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:13:6 @But still they did not give up the sin of Jeroboam, which he made Israel do, but went on with it; and there was an image of Asherah in Samaria.)

bbe@2Kings:13:9 @And Jehoahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria; and Joash his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:13:13 @And Joash went to rest with his fathers and Jeroboam took his place as king; and Joash was put into the earth in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

bbe@2Kings:13:14 @Now Elisha became ill with the disease which was the cause of his death: and Joash, king of Israel, came down to him, and weeping over him said, My father, my father, the war-carriages of Israel and its horsemen!

bbe@2Kings:13:21 @And while they were putting a dead man into the earth, they saw a band coming; and they put the man quickly into the place where Elisha's body was; and the dead man, on touching Elisha's bones, came to life again, and got up on his feet.

bbe@2Kings:13:25 @And Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, took again from Ben-hadad, the son of Hazael, the towns which he had taken from Jehoahaz his father in war. Three times Jehoash overcame him and got back the towns of Israel.

bbe@2Kings:14:2 @He was twenty-five years old when he became king; and he was ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Jehoaddin of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Kings:14:3 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, though not like David his father; he did as Joash his father had done.

bbe@2Kings:14:5 @Now when he became strong in the kingdom, straight away he put to death those servants who had taken the life of the king his father;

bbe@2Kings:14:6 @But he did not put their children to death; for the orders of the Lord recorded in the book of the law of Moses say, The fathers are not to be put to death for the children, or the children for their fathers; but a man is to be put to death for the sin which he himself has done.

bbe@2Kings:14:14 @And he took all the gold and silver and all the vessels which were in the house of the Lord and in the store-house of the king, together with those whose lives would be the price of broken faith, and went back to Samaria.

bbe@2Kings:14:16 @And Jehoash went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:14:19 @Now they made a secret design against him in Jerusalem; and he went in flight to Lachish, but they sent after him to Lachish and put him to death there.

bbe@2Kings:14:20 @And they took his body on horseback and put it into the earth with his fathers in Jerusalem, the town of David.

bbe@2Kings:14:21 @Then all the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.

bbe@2Kings:14:25 @He got back the old limits of Israel from the way into Hamath to the sea of the Arabah, as the Lord had said by his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet of Gath-hepher.

bbe@2Kings:14:29 @And Jeroboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with the kings of Israel; and Zechariah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:15:2 @He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for fifty-two years; his mother's name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Kings:15:3 @And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Amaziah had done.

bbe@2Kings:15:7 @And Azariah went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Jotham his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:15:9 @And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father had done, not turning away from the sin which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, did and made Israel do.

bbe@2Kings:15:22 @And Menahem went to rest with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:15:33 @He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling for sixteen years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.

bbe@2Kings:15:34 @And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Uzziah had done.

bbe@2Kings:15:35 @But he did not take away the high places, and the people still went on making offerings and burning them in the high places. He was the builder of the higher doorway of the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:15:38 @And Jotham went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Ahaz his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:16:2 @Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king; he was ruling for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord his God, as David his father did.

bbe@2Kings:16:6 @At that time the king of Edom got Elath back for Edom, and sent the Jews out of Elath; and the Edomites came back to Elath where they are living to this day.

bbe@2Kings:16:10 @Then King Ahaz went to Damascus for a meeting with Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria; and there he saw the altar which was at Damascus; and King Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest a copy of the altar, giving the design of it and all the details of its structure.

bbe@2Kings:16:13 @He made his burned offering and his meal offering and his drink offering there, draining out the blood of his peace-offerings on the altar.

bbe@2Kings:16:20 @And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:17:7 @And the wrath of the Lord came on Israel because they had done evil against the Lord their God, who took them out of the land of Egypt from under the yoke of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and had become worshippers of other gods,

bbe@2Kings:17:13 @And he gave witness to Israel and Judah, by every prophet and seer, saying, Come back from your evil ways, and do my orders and keep my rules, and be guided by the law which I gave to your fathers and sent to you by my servants the prophets.

bbe@2Kings:17:14 @And they did not give ear, but became stiff-necked, like their fathers who had no faith in the Lord their God.

bbe@2Kings:17:15 @And they went against his rules, and the agreement which he made with their fathers, and his laws which he gave them; they gave themselves up to things without sense or value, and became foolish like the nations round them, of whom the Lord had said, Do not as they do.

bbe@2Kings:17:16 @And turning their backs on all the orders which the Lord had given them, they made for themselves images of metal, and the image of Asherah, worshipping all the stars of heaven and becoming servants to Baal.

bbe@2Kings:17:24 @Then the king of Assyria took men from Babylon and from Cuthah and Avva and Hamath and Sepharvaim, and put them in the towns of Samaria in place of the children of Israel; so they got Samaria for their heritage, living in its towns.

bbe@2Kings:17:25 @Now when first they were living there they did not give worship to the Lord. So the Lord sent lions among them, causing the death of some of them.

bbe@2Kings:17:27 @Then the king of Assyria gave orders, saying, Send there one of the priests whom you took away, and let him be living there and teaching the people the way of the god of the land.

bbe@2Kings:17:28 @So one of the priests whom they had taken away as a prisoner from Samaria came back, and, living in Beth-el, became their teacher in the worship of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:17:29 @And every nation made gods for themselves, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in the towns where they were living.

bbe@2Kings:17:35 @And the Lord made an agreement with them and gave them orders, saying, You are to have no other gods; you are not to give worship to them or be their servants or make them offerings:

bbe@2Kings:17:37 @And the rules and the orders and the law which he put in writing for you, you are to keep and do for ever; you are to have no other gods.

bbe@2Kings:17:38 @And you are to keep in memory the agreement which I have made with you; and you are to have no other gods.

bbe@2Kings:17:41 @So these nations, worshipping the Lord, still were servants to the images they had made; their children and their children's children did the same; as their fathers did, so do they, to this day.

bbe@2Kings:18:2 @He was twenty-five years old when he became king, ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah.

bbe@2Kings:18:3 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord as David his father had done.

bbe@2Kings:18:4 @He had the high places taken away, and the stone pillars broken to bits, and the Asherah cut down; and the brass snake which Moses had made was crushed to powder at his order, because in those days the children of Israel had offerings burned before it, and he gave it the name Nehushtan.

bbe@2Kings:18:5 @He had faith in the Lord, the God of Israel; so that there was no one like him among all the kings of Judah who were before him.

bbe@2Kings:18:13 @Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came up against all the walled towns of Judah and took them.

bbe@2Kings:18:17 @Then the king of Assyria sent the Tartan and the Rab-saris and the Rab-shakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem, to King Hezekiah, with a strong force. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and took up their position by the stream of the higher pool, by the highway of the washerman's field.

bbe@2Kings:18:29 @This is what the king says: Do not be tricked by Hezekiah, for there is no salvation for you in him.

bbe@2Kings:18:34 @Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena and Ivvah? have they kept Samaria out of my hands?

bbe@2Kings:19:3 @And they said to him, Hezekiah says, This day is a day of trouble and punishment and shame; for the children are ready to come to birth, but there is no strength to give birth to them.

bbe@2Kings:19:7 @See, I will put a spirit into him, and bad news will come to his ears, and he will go back to his land; and there I will have him put to death by the sword.

bbe@2Kings:19:8 @So the Rab-shakeh went back, and when he got there the king of Assyria was making war against Libnah, for it had come to his ears that he had gone away from Lachish.

bbe@2Kings:19:12 @Did the gods of the nations keep safe those on whom my fathers sent destruction, Gozan and Haran and Rezeph and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?

bbe@2Kings:19:13 @Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the town of Sepharvaim, of Hena and of Ivvah?

bbe@2Kings:19:16 @Let your ear be turned to us, O Lord, and let your eyes be open, O Lord, and see; take note of all the words of Sennacherib who has sent men to say evil against the living God.

bbe@2Kings:19:20 @Then Isaiah, the son of Amoz, sent to Hezekiah, saying, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, The prayer which you have made to me against Sennacherib, king of Assyria, has come to my ears.

bbe@2Kings:19:35 @And that night the angel of the Lord went out and put to death in the army of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand men; and when the people got up early in the morning, there was nothing to be seen but dead bodies.

bbe@2Kings:19:36 @So Sennacherib, king of Assyria, went back to his place at Nineveh.

bbe@2Kings:20:5 @Go back and say to Hezekiah, the ruler of my people, The Lord, the God of David your father, says, Your prayer has come to my ears, and I have seen your weeping; see, I will make you well: on the third day you will go up to the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:20:13 @And Hezekiah was glad at their coming and let them see all his store of wealth, the silver and the gold and the spices and the oil of great price, and the house of his arms, and everything there was in his stores; there was nothing in all his house or his kingdom which Hezekiah did not let them see.

bbe@2Kings:20:14 @Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, What did these men say and where did they come from? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country, even from Babylon.

bbe@2Kings:20:15 @And he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah said in answer, They saw everything in my house: there is nothing among my stores which I did not let them see.

bbe@2Kings:20:17 @Truly, days are coming when everything in your house, and whatever your fathers have put in store till this day, will be taken away to Babylon: all will be gone, says the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:20:19 @Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which you have said. Then he said,... if in my time there is peace and righteousness?

bbe@2Kings:20:21 @And Hezekiah went to rest with his fathers; and Manasseh his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:21:3 @He put up again the high places which had been pulled down by Hezekiah his father; he made altars for Baal, and an Asherah, as Ahab, king of Israel, had done; he was a worshipper and servant of all the stars of heaven.

bbe@2Kings:21:16 @More than this, Manasseh took the lives of upright men, till Jerusalem from one end to the other was full of blood; in addition to his sin in making Judah do evil in the eyes of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:21:18 @So Manasseh went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the garden of his house, in the garden of Uzza; and Amon his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:23:4 @Then the king gave orders to Hilkiah, the chief priest, and to the priests of the second order, and to the keepers of the door, to take out of the house of the Lord all the vessels made for Baal and for the Asherah and for all the stars of heaven; and he had them burned outside Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and took the dust of them to Beth-el.

bbe@2Kings:23:6 @And he took the Asherah from the house of the Lord, outside Jerusalem to the stream Kidron, burning it by the stream and crushing it to dust, and he put the dust on the place where the bodies of the common people were put to rest.

bbe@2Kings:23:7 @And he had the houses pulled down of those who were used for sex purposes in the house of the Lord, where women were making robes for the Asherah.

bbe@2Kings:23:8 @And he made all the priests from the towns of Judah come into Jerusalem, and he made unclean the high places where the priests had been burning offerings, from Geba to Beer-sheba; and he had the high places of the evil spirits pulled down which were by the doorway of Joshua, the ruler of the town, on the left side of the way into the town.

bbe@2Kings:23:9 @Still the priests of the high places never came up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem; but they took their food of unleavened bread among their brothers.

bbe@2Kings:23:14 @The stone pillars were broken to bits and the wood pillars cut down, and the places where they had been were made full of the bones of the dead.

bbe@2Kings:23:15 @And the altar at Beth-el, and the high place put up by Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who made Israel do evil, that altar and that high place were pulled down; and the high place was burned and crushed to dust and the Asherah was burned.

bbe@2Kings:23:17 @What is that headstone I see over there? And the men of the town said to him, It is the resting-place of the man of God who came from Judah and gave word of all these things which you have done to the altar of Beth-el.

bbe@2Kings:23:20 @And all the priests of the high places there he put to death on the altars, burning the bones of the dead on them; and then he went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Kings:23:25 @Never before had there been a king like him, turning to the Lord with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his power, as the law of Moses says; and after him there was no king like him.

bbe@2Kings:23:27 @And the Lord said, I will send Judah away from before my face, as I have sent Israel; I will have nothing more to do with this town, which I had made mine, even Jerusalem, and the holy house of which I said, My name will be there.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:5 @And the people of Jebus said to David, You will not come in here. But still, David took the strong place of Zion, which is the town of David.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:13 @He was with David at Pas-dammim, where the Philistines had come together for the fight, near a bit of land full of barley; and the people went in flight before the Philistines.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:20 @And Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the thirty, for he put to death three hundred with his spear, but he had not a name among the three.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:26 @And these were the great men of war: Asahel, the brother of Joab, Elhanan, the son of Dodo of Beth-lehem,

bbe@1Chronicles:11:36 @Hepher the Mecherathite, Ahijah the Pelonite,

bbe@1Chronicles:11:38 @Joel, the brother of Nathan, Mibhar, the son of Hagri,

bbe@1Chronicles:11:45 @Jediael, the son of Shimri, and Joha his brother, the Tizite,

bbe@1Chronicles:12:2 @They were armed with bows, and were able to send stones, and arrows from the bow, with right hand or left: they were Saul's brothers, of Benjamin.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:17 @And David went out to them, and said to them, If you have come in peace to give me help, my heart will be united with yours; but if you have come to give me up to those who would take my life, though my hands are clean from wrongdoing, then may the God of our fathers see it and give you punishment.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:20 @Then when he went back to Ziklag, there came over to him, of the men of Manasseh, Adnah and Jozabad and Jediael and Michael and Jozabad and Elihu and Zillethai, captains of thousands from the armies of Manasseh.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:24 @There were six thousand, eight hundred spearmen of the children of Judah, armed for war;

bbe@1Chronicles:12:28 @And Zadok, a young man, great and strong in war, with twenty-two captains from his father's people.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:29 @And of the children of Benjamin, the brothers of Saul, three thousand; for up to that time the greater part of them had been true to Saul.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:32 @And of the children of Issachar, there were two hundred chiefs, men who had expert knowledge of the times and what it was best for Israel to do, and all their brothers were under their orders.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:33 @Of Zebulun, there were fifty thousand men, who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight, to give help with all sorts of arms; true-hearted men.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:36 @And of Asher, forty thousand who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:37 @From the other side of Jordan, there were a hundred and twenty thousand of the Reubenites and the Gadites and the men of the half-tribe of Manasseh, armed with every sort of instrument of war.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:39 @For three days they were there with David, feasting at his table, for their brothers had made ready food for them.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:40 @And those who were near, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, came with food on asses and camels and mules and oxen, with meal for food and cakes of figs and masses of grapes, and wine and oil and oxen and sheep in great numbers, for there was joy in Israel.

bbe@1Chronicles:13:2 @And David said to all the men of Israel who had come together there, If it seems good to you and if it is the purpose of the Lord our God, let us send to all the rest of our brothers, everywhere in the land of Israel, and to the priests and the Levites in their towns and the country round them, and get them to come together here to us;

bbe@1Chronicles:13:5 @So David sent for all Israel to come together, from Shihor, the river of Egypt, as far as the way into Hamath, to get the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.

bbe@1Chronicles:13:6 @And David went up, with all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath-jearim in Judah, to get up from there the ark of God, over which the holy Name is named, the name of the Lord whose place is between the winged ones.

bbe@1Chronicles:13:10 @And the wrath of the Lord, burning against Uzza, sent destruction on him because he had put his hand on the ark, and death came to him there before God.

bbe@1Chronicles:14:3 @And while he was living in Jerusalem, David took more wives and became the father of more sons and daughters.

bbe@1Chronicles:14:11 @So they went up to Baal-perazim, and David overcame them there, and David said, God has let the forces fighting against me be broken by my hand, as a wall is broken down by rushing water; so they gave that place the name of Baal-perazim.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:3 @And David made all Israel come together at Jerusalem, to take the ark of the Lord to its place, which he had got ready for it.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:4 @And David got together the sons of Aaron, and the Levites;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:5 @Of the sons of Kohath: Uriel the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twenty;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:6 @Of the sons of Merari: Asaiah the chief, and his brothers, two hundred and twenty;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:7 @Of the sons of Gershom: Joel the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and thirty;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:8 @Of the sons of Elizaphan: Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers, two hundred;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:9 @Of the sons of Hebron: Eliel the chief, and his brothers, eighty;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:10 @Of the sons of Uzziel: Amminadab the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twelve.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:12 @And said to them, You are the heads of the families of the Levites: make yourselves holy, you and your brothers, so that you may take the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel, to the place which I have made ready for it.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:16 @And David gave orders to the chief of the Levites to put their brothers the music-makers in position, with instruments of music, corded instruments and brass, with glad voices making sounds of joy.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:17 @So Heman, the son of Joel, and, of his brothers, Asaph, the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brothers, Ethan, the son of Kushaiah, were put in position by the Levites;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:18 @And with them their brothers of the second order, Zechariah, Bani and Jaaziel and Shemiramoth and Jehiel and Unni, Eliab and Benaiah and Maaseiah and Mattithiah and Eliphelehu and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom and Jeiel, the door-keepers.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:29 @And when the ark of the agreement of the Lord came into the town of David, Michal, the daughter of Saul, looking out of the window, saw King David dancing and playing; and to her mind he seemed foolish.

bbe@1Chronicles:16:7 @Then on that day David first made the giving of praise to the Lord the work of Asaph and his brothers.

bbe@1Chronicles:16:18 @Saying, To you will I give the land of Canaan, the measured line of your heritage:

bbe@1Chronicles:16:20 @When they went about from one nation to another, and from one kingdom to another people;

bbe@1Chronicles:16:25 @For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised; and he is more to be feared than all other gods.

bbe@1Chronicles:16:37 @So he made Asaph and his brothers keep their places there before the ark of the agreement of the Lord, to do whatever had to be done before the ark at all times day by day:

bbe@1Chronicles:16:38 @And Obed-edom, the son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, with their brothers, sixty-eight of them, to be door-keepers:

bbe@1Chronicles:16:39 @And Zadok the priest, with his brothers the priests, before the House of the Lord in the high place at Gibeon;

bbe@1Chronicles:17:6 @In all the places where I have gone with all Israel, did I ever say to any of the judges of Israel, whom I made the keepers of my people, Why have you not made for me a house of cedar?

bbe@1Chronicles:17:8 @And I have been with you wherever you went, cutting off before you all those who were against you; and I will make your name like the name of the greatest ones of the earth.

bbe@1Chronicles:17:9 @And I will make a resting-place for my people Israel, planting them there, so that they may be in the place which is theirs and never again be moved; and never again will they be made waste by evil men, as they were at first,

bbe@1Chronicles:17:11 @And when the time comes for you to go to your fathers, I will put in your place your seed after you, one of your sons, and I will make his kingdom strong.

bbe@1Chronicles:17:13 @I will be to him a father and he will be to me a son; and I will not take my mercy away from him as I took it from him who was before you;

bbe@1Chronicles:17:20 @O Lord, there is no one like you, and no other God but you, as is clear from everything which has come to our ears.

bbe@1Chronicles:17:21 @And what other nation in the earth, like your people Israel, did a god go out to take for himself, to be his people, making his name great and to be feared, driving out the nations from before your people whom you made free and took out of Egypt?

bbe@1Chronicles:18:6 @Then David put armed forces in Damascus, and the Aramaeans became his servants and gave him offerings. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:11 @These King David made holy to the Lord, together with the silver and gold he had taken from all nations; from Edom and Moab and from the children of Ammon and from the Philistines and from Amalek.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:13 @David put armed forces in all the towns of Edom; and all the Edomites became servants to David. The Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:17 @And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief of those whose places were at the king's side.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:2 @And David said, I will be a friend to Hanun, the son of Nahash, because his father was a friend to me. So David sent men to him, to give him words of comfort on account of his father. And the servants of David came to Hanun, to the land of the children of Ammon, offering him comfort.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:3 @But the chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Does it seem to you that David is honouring your father, by sending comforters to you? is it not clear that these men have only come to go through the land and to make secret observation of it so that they may overcome it?

bbe@1Chronicles:19:5 @Then certain men went and gave David word of what had been done to them. And he sent out with the purpose of meeting them; for the men were greatly shamed. And the king said, Keep where you are at Jericho till your hair is long again, and then come back.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:7 @So with this money they got thirty-two thousand war-carriages, and the help of the king of Maacah and his people, who came and took up their position in front of Medeba. And the children of Ammon came together from their towns for the fight.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:11 @And the rest of the people he put in position against the children of Ammon with Abishai, his brother, at their head.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:15 @And when the children of Ammon saw the flight of the Aramaeans, they themselves went in flight from Abishai, his brother, and came into the town. Then Joab came back to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:16 @And when the Aramaeans saw that Israel had overcome them, they sent men to get the Aramaeans who were on the other side of the River, with Shophach, the captain of Hadadezer's army, at their head.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:17 @And word of this was given to David; and he got all Israel together and went over Jordan and came to Helam and put his forces in position against them. And when David's forces were in position against the Aramaeans, the fight was started.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:3 @And he took the people out of the town and put them to work with wood-cutting instruments, and iron grain-crushers, and axes. And this he did to all the towns of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:4 @Now after this there was war with the Philistines at Gezer; then Sibbecai the Hushathite put to death Sippai, one of the offspring of the Rephaim; and they were overcome.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:5 @And again there was war with the Philistines; and Elhanan, the son of Jair, put to death Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the stem of whose spear was like a cloth-worker's rod.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:6 @And again there was war at Gath, where there was a very tall man, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet; he was one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:7 @And when he put shame on Israel, Jonathan, the son of Shimea, David's brother, put him to death.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:12 @Three years when there will not be enough food; or three months of war, when you will go in flight before your haters, being in great danger of the sword; or three days of the sword of the Lord, disease in the land, and the angel of the Lord taking destruction through all the land of Israel. Now give thought to the answer I am to take back to him who sent me.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:16 @And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the angel of the Lord there between earth and heaven, with an uncovered sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the responsible men, clothed in haircloth, went down on their faces.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:22 @Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place where this grain-floor is, so that I may put up an altar here to the Lord: let me have it for its full price; so that this disease may be stopped among the people.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:26 @And David put up an altar there to the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings with prayers to the Lord; and he gave him an answer from heaven, sending fire on the altar of burned offering.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:28 @At that time, when David saw that the Lord had given him an answer on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he made an offering there.

bbe@1Chronicles:22:2 @And David gave orders to get together all the men from strange lands who were in the land of Israel; and he put stone-cutters to work, cutting stones for building the house of God.

bbe@1Chronicles:22:3 @And he got together a great store of iron, for the nails for the doors and for the joins; and brass, more in weight than might be measured;

bbe@1Chronicles:22:10 @He will be the builder of a house for my name; he will be to me a son, and I will be to him a father; and I will make the seat of his rule over Israel certain for ever.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:2 @And he got together all the chiefs of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:11 @Jahath was the chief and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah had only a small number of sons, so they were grouped together as one family.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:17 @And the sons of Eliezer: Rehabiah the first; and Eliezer had no other sons, but Rehabiah had a great number.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:26 @And from now, there will be no need for the House of the Lord, and the vessels used in it, to be moved about by the Levites.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:32 @And they had the care of the Tent of meeting and the holy place, under the direction of the sons of Aaron their brothers, for the work of the house of the Lord.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:2 @But Nadab and Abihu came to their end before their father, and had no children; so Eleazar and Ithamar did the work of priests.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:4 @And there were more chiefs among the sons of Eleazar than among the sons of Ithamar; and this is how they were grouped: of the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen, all heads of families; and of the sons of Ithamar, heads of families, there were eight.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:5 @So they were put into groups, by the Lord's decision, one with another; for there were rulers of the holy place and rulers of the house of God among the sons of Eleazar and the sons of Ithamar.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:19 @So they were put into their different groups, to take their places in the house of the Lord, in agreement with the rules made by Aaron their father, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had given him orders.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:25 @The brother of Micah, Isshiah; of the sons of Isshiah, Zechariah.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:31 @Selection was made of these in the same way as of their brothers the sons of Aaron, David the king being present, with Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the heads of families of the priests and of the Levites; the families of the chief in the same way as those of his younger brother.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:1 @Further, David and the chiefs of the servants of the holy place made selection of certain of the sons of Asaph and of Heman and of Jeduthun for the work of prophets, to make melody with corded instruments and brass; and the number of the men for the work they had to do was:

bbe@1Chronicles:25:3 @Of Jeduthun: the six sons of Jeduthun, Gedaliah and Zeri and Jeshaiah, Hashabiah and Mattithiah; under the direction of their father Jeduthun who, acting as a prophet, with corded instruments gave praise and glory to the Lord.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:6 @All these, under the direction of their father, made music in the house of the Lord, with brass and corded instruments, for the worship of the house of God; Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman being under the orders of the king.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:7 @And the number of them, with their brothers who were trained and expert in making melody to the Lord, was two hundred and eighty-eight.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:8 @And selection was made of them for their special work, all having equal chances, small as well as great, the teacher as the learner.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:9 @Now of the group of Asaph, the first name to come out was Joseph; the second Gedaliah; he and his brothers and sons were twelve?

bbe@1Chronicles:28:6 @And he said to me, Solomon your son will be the builder of my house and the open spaces round it; for I have taken him to be my son, and I will be his father.

bbe@1Chronicles:28:8 @So now, before the eyes of all Israel, the people of the Lord, and in the hearing of our God, keep and be true to the orders of the Lord your God; so that you may have this good land for yourselves and give it for a heritage to your children after you for ever.

bbe@1Chronicles:28:9 @And you, Solomon my son, get knowledge of the God of your father, and be his servant with a true heart and with a strong desire, for the Lord is the searcher of all hearts, and has knowledge of all the designs of men's thoughts; if you make search for him, he will be near you; but if you are turned away from him, he will give you up for ever.

bbe@1Chronicles:28:11 @Then David gave to his son Solomon the design of the doorway of the house of God and of its houses and its store-houses, and the higher rooms and the inner rooms and the place for the mercy-seat;

bbe@1Chronicles:29:10 @So David gave praise to the Lord before all the people; and David said, Praise be to you, O Lord the God of Israel, our father for ever and ever.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:15 @For we, as all our fathers were, are like men from a strange country before you, who have got a place for a time in the land; our days on the earth are like a shade, and there is no hope of going on.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:17 @And I am conscious, my God, that you are the searcher of hearts, taking pleasure in righteousness

bbe@1Chronicles:29:18 @O Lord, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the deepest thoughts of your people, and let their hearts be fixed and true to you;

bbe@1Chronicles:29:20 @And David said to all the people, Now give praise to the Lord your God. And all the people gave praise to the Lord, the God of their fathers, with bent heads worshipping the Lord and the king.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:23 @So Solomon was put on the seat of the Lord as king in place of his father David, and everything went well for him; and all Israel was under his authority.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:25 @And the Lord made Solomon great in the eyes of all Israel, clothing him with glory and honour such as no other king in Israel had had before him.

This is a law for ever to Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:7 @So now send me an expert worker in gold and silver and brass and iron? in purple and red and blue, and in the cutting of all sorts of ornament, to be with the expert workmen who are here in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom my father David got together.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:13 @And now I am sending you a wise and expert man, Huram who is as my father,

bbe@2Chronicles:2:14 @The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, whose father was a man of Tyre, an expert worker in gold and silver and brass and iron, in stone and wood, in purple and blue and fair linen and red, trained in the cutting of every sort of ornament and the invention of every sort of design; let him be given a place among your expert workmen and those of my lord, your father David.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:16 @And we will have wood cut from Lebanon, as much as you have need of, and will send it to you on flat boats by sea to Joppa, and from there you may take it up to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:17 @Then Solomon took the number of all the men from strange lands who were living in Israel, as his father David had done; there were a hundred and fifty-three thousand, six hundred.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:1 @Then Solomon made a start at building the house of the Lord on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem, where the Lord had been seen by his father David, in the place which David had made ready in the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:9 @And fifty shekels weight of gold was used for the nails. He had all the higher rooms plated with gold.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:11 @Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; one wing, five cubits long, touching the wall of the house, and the other, of the same size, meeting the wing of the other winged one.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:12 @And in the same way, the wings of the other, five cubits long, were stretched out, one touching the wall and the other meeting the wing of the first winged one.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:16 @All the pots and the spades and the meat-hooks and their vessels, which Huram, who was as his father, made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of polished brass.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:1 @So all the work which Solomon did for the house of the Lord was complete. And Solomon took the holy things which David his father had given, the silver and the gold and all the vessels, and put them in the store-houses of the house of God.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:3 @And all the men of Israel came together to the king at the feast in the seventh month.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:6 @And King Solomon and all the men of Israel who had come together there with him, were before the ark, making offerings of sheep and oxen more than might be numbered.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:8 @For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:9 @The rods were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place before the inmost room; but they were not seen from outside; and there they are to this day.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:10 @Nothing was in the ark but the two flat stones which Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made an agreement with the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:12 @And the Levites who made the music, all of them, Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and brothers, robed in fair linen, were in their places with their brass and corded instruments at the east side of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests blowing horns;)

bbe@2Chronicles:6:3 @Then, turning his face about, the king gave a blessing to all the men of Israel; and they were all on their feet together.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:4 @And he said, Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, who himself gave his word to my father David, and with his strong hand has made his word come true, saying,

bbe@2Chronicles:6:6 @But now I have made selection of Jerusalem, that my name might be there, and of David, to be over my people Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:7 @Now it was in the heart of my father David to put up a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:8 @But the Lord said to David my father, You did well to have in your heart the desire to make a house for my name:

bbe@2Chronicles:6:10 @And the Lord has kept his word; for I have taken my father David's place on the seat of the kingdom of Israel, as the Lord gave his word; and I have made the house for the name of the Lord the God of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:11 @And there I have put the ark, in which is the agreement of the Lord, which he made with the people of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:14 @And he said, O Lord, the God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven or on earth; keeping faith and mercy unchanging for your servants, while they go in your ways with all their hearts;

bbe@2Chronicles:6:15 @For you have kept the word which you gave to your servant David, my father; with your mouth you said it and with your hand you have made it come true this day.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:16 @So now, O Lord, the God of Israel, let your word to your servant David, my father, come true, when you said, You will never be without a man to take his place before me on the seat of the kingdom of Israel; if only your children give attention to their ways, walking in my law, as you have done before me.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:20 @That your eyes may be open to this house day and night, to this place of which you have said that you would put your name there; to give ear to the prayer which your servant may make, turning to this place.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:25 @Then give ear from heaven, and let the sin of your people Israel have forgiveness, and take them back again to the land which you gave to them and to their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:26 @When heaven is shut up and there is no rain, because of their sin against you: if they make prayers with their faces turned to this place, honouring your name and turning away from their sin when you send trouble on them:

bbe@2Chronicles:6:27 @Then give ear from heaven, so that the sin of your servants and the sin of your people Israel may have forgiveness, when you make clear to them the good way in which they are to go; and send rain on your land which you have given to your people for their heritage.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:28 @If there is no food in the land, if there is disease, if the fruits of the earth are damaged by heat or water, locust or worm; if their towns are shut in by their attackers: whatever trouble or whatever disease there may be:

bbe@2Chronicles:6:31 @So that they may give you worship, walking in your ways, as long as they are living in the land which you gave to our fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:37 @And if they take thought, in the land where they are prisoners, turning again to you, crying out in prayer to you in that land, and saying, We are sinners, we have done wrong, we have done evil;

bbe@2Chronicles:6:38 @If with all their heart and soul they are turned again to you, in the land where they are prisoners, the land where they have been taken, and make their prayers, turning their eyes to their land which you gave to their fathers, and to the town which you took for yourself, and the house which I have made for your name:

bbe@2Chronicles:7:7 @Then Solomon made holy the middle of the open square in front of the house of the Lord, offering the burned offerings there, and the fat of the peace-offerings; for there was not room on the brass altar which Solomon had made for all the burned offerings and the meal offerings and the fat.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:8 @So Solomon kept the feast at that time for seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great meeting, for the people had come together from the way into Hamath and from as far as the river of Egypt.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:12 @Now the Lord came to Solomon in a vision by night, and said to him, I have given ear to your prayer, and have taken this place for myself as a house where offerings are to be made.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:13 @If, at my word, heaven is shut up, so that there is no rain, or if I send locusts on the land for its destruction, or if I send disease on my people;

bbe@2Chronicles:7:16 @For I have taken this house for myself and made it holy, so that my name may be there for ever; and my eyes and my heart will be there at all times

bbe@2Chronicles:7:17 @And as for you, if you will go on your way before me as David your father did, doing whatever I have given you orders to do and keeping my laws and my decisions:

bbe@2Chronicles:7:18 @Then I will make strong the seat of your kingdom, as I gave my word to David your father, saying, You will never be without a man to be ruler in Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:19 @But if you are turned away from me, and do not keep my orders and my laws which I have put before you, but go and make yourselves servants to other gods, giving them worship:

bbe@2Chronicles:7:22 @And their answer will be, Because they were turned away from the Lord, the God of their fathers, who took them out of the land of Egypt, and took for themselves other gods and gave them worship and became their servants: that is why he has sent all this evil on them.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:2 @He took in hand the building up of the towns which Huram had given him, causing the children of Israel to make living-places for themselves there.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:5 @And of Beth-horon the higher and the lower, walled towns with walls and doorways and locks;

bbe@2Chronicles:8:6 @And of Baalath, and all the store-towns which Solomon had, and the towns where he kept his war-carriages and his horse men, and everything which it was his pleasure to put up in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land under his rule.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:11 @Then Solomon made Pharaoh's daughter come up from the town of David to the house which he had made for her; for he said, I will not have my wife living in the house of David, king of Israel, because those places where the ark of the Lord has come are holy.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:14 @And he gave the divisions of the priests their places for their work, as ordered by his father David, and to the Levites he gave their work of praise and waiting on the priests, to do what was needed day by day; and he gave the door-keepers their places in turn at every door; for so David, the man of God, had given orders.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:1 @Now the queen of Sheba, hearing great things of Solomon, came to Jerusalem to put his wisdom to the test with hard questions; and with her came a very great train, and camels weighted down with spices, and great stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:2 @And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which he did not make clear to her.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:4 @And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants and their robes, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:12 @And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what she had taken to the king. So she went back to her country with her servants.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:18 @There were six steps up to it, and a foot-rest of gold fixed to it, and arms on the two sides of the seat, with two lions at the side of the arms.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:19 @And twelve lions were placed on one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:31 @And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:1 @And Rehoboam went to Shechem, where all Israel had come together to make him king.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:2 @And when Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, had news of it, (for he was in Egypt where he had gone in flight from King Solomon,) he came back from Egypt.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:4 @Your father put a hard yoke on us: if you will make the conditions under which your father kept us down less cruel, and the weight of the yoke he put on us less hard, then we will be your servants.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:6 @Then King Rehoboam took the opinion of the old men who had been with Solomon his father when he was living, and said, In your opinion, what answer am I to give to this people?

bbe@2Chronicles:10:9 @And he said to them, What is your opinion? What answer are we to give to this people who have said to me, Make less the weight of the yoke which your father put on us?

bbe@2Chronicles:10:10 @And the young men of his generation said to him, This is the answer to give to the people who came to you saying, Your father put a hard yoke on us, but will you make it less; say to them, My little finger is thicker than my father's body;

bbe@2Chronicles:10:11 @If my father put a hard yoke on you, I will make it harder: my father gave you punishment with whips, but I will give you blows with snakes.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:14 @But gave them the answer put forward by the young men, saying, My father made your yoke hard, but I will make it harder; my father gave you punishment with whips, but I will give it with snakes.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:16 @And when all Israel saw that the king would give no attention to them, the people in answer said to the king, What part have we in David? what is our heritage in the son of Jesse? every man to your tents, O Israel; now see to your house, David. So all Israel went to their tents.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:1 @And Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, and got together the men of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand of his best fighting-men, to make war against Israel and get the kingdom back for Rehoboam.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:4 @The Lord has said, You are not to go to war against your brothers: let every man go back to his house, for this thing is my purpose. So they gave ear to the words of the Lord and were turned back from fighting against Jeroboam.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:13 @And the priests and Levites who were in all Israel came together to him from every part of their country.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:16 @And after them, from all the tribes of Israel, all those whose hearts were fixed and true to the Lord, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to make offerings to the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:20 @And after her he took Maacah, the daughter of Absalom; and she had Abijah and Attai and Ziza and Shelomith by him.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:21 @Maacah, the daughter of Absalom, was dearer to Rehoboam than all his wives and his servant-wives: (for he had eighteen wives and sixty servant-wives, and was the father of twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.)

bbe@2Chronicles:11:22 @Rehoboam made Abijah, the son of Maacah, chief and ruler among his brothers, for it was his purpose to make him king.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:5 @Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the chiefs of Judah, who had come together in Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, The Lord has said, Because you have given me up, I have given you up into the hands of Shishak.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:10 @And in their place King Rehoboam had other body-covers made of brass and gave them into the care of the captains of the armed men who were stationed at the door of the king's house.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:12 @And when he made himself low, the wrath of the Lord was turned back from him, and complete destruction did not come on him, for there was still some good in Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:13 @So King Rehoboam made himself strong in Jerusalem and was ruling there

bbe@2Chronicles:12:15 @Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not recorded in the words of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:16 @And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David; and Abijah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:2 @He was king in Jerusalem for three years; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:9 @And after driving out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron and the Levites, have you not made priests for yourselves as the people of other lands do? so that anyone who comes to make himself priest by offering an ox or seven sheep, may be a priest of those who are no gods.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:12 @And now God is with us at our head, and his priests with their loud horns sounding against you. O children of Israel, do not make war on the Lord, the God of your fathers, for it will not go well for you.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:13 @But Jeroboam had put some of his men to make a surprise attack on them from the back, so some were facing Judah and others were stationed secretly at their back.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:18 @So at that time the children of Israel were overcome, and the children of Judah got the better of them, because they put their faith in the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:21 @But Abijah became great, and had fourteen wives, and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:1 @So Abijah went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David, and Asa his son became king in his place; in his time the land was quiet for ten years.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:4 @And he made Judah go after the Lord, the God of their fathers, and keep his laws and his orders.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:6 @He made walled towns in Judah, for the land was quiet and there were no wars in those years, because the Lord had given him rest.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:13 @And Asa and the people who were with him went after them as far as Gerar; and so great was the destruction among the Ethiopians that they were not able to get their army together again, for they were broken before the Lord and before his army; and they took away a great amount of their goods.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:14 @And they overcame all the towns round Gerar, because the Lord sent fear on them; and they took away their goods from the towns, for there were stores of wealth in them.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:5 @In those times there was no peace for him who went out or for him who came in, but great trouble was on all the people of the lands.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:9 @And he got together all Judah and Benjamin and those of Ephraim and Manasseh and Simeon who were living with them; for numbers of them came to him out of Israel when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:10 @So they came together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the rule of Asa.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:12 @And they made an agreement to be true to the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and all their soul;

bbe@2Chronicles:15:16 @And Asa would not let Maacah, his mother, be queen, because she had made a disgusting image for Asherah; and Asa had her image cut down and broken up and burned by the stream Kidron.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:18 @He took into the house of God all the things which his father had made holy and those which he himself had made holy, silver and gold and vessels.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:19 @And there was no more war till the thirty-fifth year of the rule of Asa

bbe@2Chronicles:16:3 @Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:13 @So Asa went to rest with his fathers, and death came to him in the forty-first year of his rule.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:2 @He put forces in all the walled towns of Judah, and responsible chiefs in the land of Judah and in the towns of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:3 @And the Lord was with Jehoshaphat, because he went in the early ways of his father, not turning to the Baals,

bbe@2Chronicles:17:4 @But turning to the God of his father and keeping his laws, and not doing as Israel did.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:7 @In the third year of his rule he sent Benhail and Obadiah and Zechariah and Nethanel and Micaiah, his captains, as teachers into the towns of Judah;

bbe@2Chronicles:18:5 @So the king of Israel got together all the prophets, four hundred men, and said to them, Am I to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And they said, Go up: for God will give it into the hands of the king.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:6 @But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no other prophet of the Lord here from whom we may get directions?

bbe@2Chronicles:18:7 @And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, but I have no love for him, because he has never been a prophet of good to me, but only of evil: he is Micaiah, the son of Imla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:19 @And the Lord said, How may Ahab, king of Israel, be tricked into going up to Ramoth-gilead to his death? And one said one thing and one another.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:23 @Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, came near and gave Micaiah a blow on the side of his face, saying, Where is the spirit of the Lord whose word is in you?

bbe@2Chronicles:18:33 @And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded.

bbe@2Chronicles:19:3 @But still there is some good in you, for you have put away the wood pillars out of the land, and have given your heart to the worship of God.

bbe@2Chronicles:19:4 @And Jehoshaphat was living in Jerusalem; and he went out again among the people, from Beer-sheba to the hill-country of Ephraim, guiding them back to the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:19:7 @So now let the fear of the Lord be in you; do your work with care; for in the Lord our God there is no evil, or respect for high position, or taking of payment to do wrong.

bbe@2Chronicles:19:10 @And if any cause comes before you from your brothers living in their towns, where the death punishment is in question, or where there are questions of law or order, or rules or decisions, make them take care that they are not in the wrong before the Lord, so that wrath may not come on you and on your brothers; do this and you yourselves will not be in the wrong

bbe@2Chronicles:20:4 @And Judah came together to make prayer for help from the Lord; from every town of Judah they came to give worship to the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:6 @And said, O Lord, the God of our fathers, are you not God in heaven? are you not ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? and in your hands are power and strength so that no one is able to keep his place against you.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:8 @And they made it their living-place, building there a holy house for your name, and saying,

bbe@2Chronicles:20:11 @See now, how as our reward they have come to send us out of your land which you have given us as our heritage.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:17 @There will be no need for you to take up arms in this fight; put yourselves in position, and keep where you are, and you will see the salvation of the Lord with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: have no fear and do not be troubled: go out against them tomorrow, for the Lord is with you.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:25 @And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their goods from them, they saw beasts in great numbers, and wealth and clothing and things of value, more than they were able to take away; all this they took for themselves, and they were three days getting it away, there was so much.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:26 @On the fourth day they all came together in the Valley of Blessing, and there they gave blessing to the Lord; for which cause that place has been named the Valley of Blessing to this day.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:31 @And Jehoshaphat was king over Judah: he was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling for twenty-five years in Jerusalem: his mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:32 @He went in the ways of his father Asa, not turning away, but doing right in the eyes of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:33 @The high places, however, were not taken away, and the hearts of the people were still not true to the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:36 @Together they made ships to go to Tarshish, building them in Ezion-geber.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:1 @And Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David. And Jehoram his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:2 @And he had brothers, sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; all these were sons of Jehoshaphat, king of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:3 @And their father gave them much silver and gold and things of great value, as well as walled towns in Judah; but the kingdom he gave to Jehoram, because he was the oldest.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:4 @Now when Jehoram had taken his place over his father's kingdom, and had made his position safe, he put all his brothers to death with the sword, as well as some of the princes of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:10 @So Edom made themselves free from the rule of Judah, to this day: and at the same time Libnah made itself free from his rule; because he was turned away from the Lord, the God of his fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:12 @And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, The Lord, the God of your father David, says, Because you have not kept to the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or the ways of Asa, king of Judah,

bbe@2Chronicles:21:13 @But have gone in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the people of Jerusalem go after false gods, as the family of Ahab did: and because you have put to death your father's sons, your brothers, who were better than yourself:

bbe@2Chronicles:21:19 @And time went on, and after two years, his inside falling out because of the disease, he came to his death in cruel pain. And his people made no burning for him like the burning made for his fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:2 @Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:3 @He went in the ways of the family of Ahab, for his mother was his teacher in evil-doing.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:4 @And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as the family of Ahab did; for after the death of his father they were his guides to his destruction.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:7 @Now by the purpose of God, Ahaziah's journey to see Jehoram was the cause of his downfall: for when he came there, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu, the son of Nimshi, who had been marked out by the Lord for the destruction of the family of Ahab.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:8 @Now when Jehu was effecting the punishment of the family of Ahab, he came to the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers, the servants of Ahaziah, and put them to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:9 @And he went in search of Ahaziah; and when they came where he was, (for he was in a secret place in Samaria,) they took him to Jehu and put him to death; then they put his body to rest in the earth, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, whose heart was true to the Lord. So the family of Ahaziah had no power to keep the kingdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:10 @Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she had all the rest of the seed of the kingdom of Judah put to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:12 @And she kept him safe with her in the house of God for six years, while Athaliah was ruling the land.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:2 @And they went through Judah, getting together the Levites and the heads of families in Israel from all the towns of Judah, and they came to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:6 @But let no one come into the house of the Lord but only the priests and those of the Levites who have work to do there; they may go in for they are holy; but the rest of the people are to keep the orders of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:13 @And looking, she saw the king in his place by the pillar at the doorway, and the captains and the horns by his side; and all the people of the land were giving signs of joy and sounding the horns; and the makers of melody were playing on instruments of music, taking the chief part in the song of praise. Then Athaliah, violently parting her robes, said, Broken faith, broken faith!

bbe@2Chronicles:23:14 @Then Jehoiada the priest gave orders to the captains of hundreds who had authority over the army, saying, Take her outside the lines, and let anyone who goes after her be put to death with the sword. For the priest said, Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:15 @So they put their hands on her, and she went to the king's house by the doorway of the king's horses; and there she was put to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:20 @Then he took the captains of hundreds and the chiefs and the rulers of the people and all the people of the land, and they came down with the king from the house of the Lord through the higher doorway into the king's house, and put the king on the seat of the kingdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:1 @Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he was ruling for forty years in Jerusalem: his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:3 @And Jehoiada took two wives for him, and he became the father of sons and daughters.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:5 @And getting together the priests and Levites, he said to them, Go out into the towns of Judah year by year, and get from all Israel money to keep the house of your God in good condition; and see that this is done without loss of time. The Levites, however, were slow in doing so.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:7 @For the house of the Lord had been broken up by Athaliah, that evil woman, and her sons; and all its holy things they had given to the Baals.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:11 @So when the chest was taken to the king's servants by the Levites, and they saw that there was much money in it, the king's scribe and the chief priest's servant took the money out, and put the chest back in its place. They did this day by day, and got together a great amount of money.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:18 @And they gave up the house of the Lord God of their fathers, and became worshippers of pillars of wood and of the images; and because of this sin of theirs, wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:22 @So King Joash did not keep in mind how good Jehoiada his father had been to him, but put his son to death. And in the hour of his death he said, May the Lord see it and take payment!

bbe@2Chronicles:24:24 @For though the army of Aram was only a small one, the Lord gave a very great army into their hands, because they had given up the Lord, the God of their fathers. So they put into effect the punishment of Joash.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:1 @Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:3 @Now when he became strong in the kingdom, he put to death those men who had taken the life of the king his father.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:4 @But he did not put their children to death, for he kept the orders of the Lord recorded in the book of the law of Moses, saying, The fathers are not to be put to death for their children or the children for their fathers, but a man is to be put to death for the sin which he himself has done.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:5 @Then Amaziah got all Judah together and put them in order by their families, even all Judah and Benjamin, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds: and he had those of twenty years old and over numbered, and they came to three hundred thousand of the best fighting-men, trained for war and in the use of the spear and the body-cover.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:11 @Then Amaziah took heart, and went out at the head of his people and came to the Valley of Salt, where he put to death ten thousand of the children of Seir;

bbe@2Chronicles:25:27 @Now from the time when Amaziah gave up worshipping the Lord, they made secret designs against him in Jerusalem; and he went in flight to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him and put him to death there.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:28 @And they took his body on horseback and put it into the earth with his fathers in the town of David.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:1 @Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:3 @Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for fifty-two years; his mother's name was Jechiliah of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:4 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Amaziah had done.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:14 @And Uzziah had all these forces armed with body-covers and spears and head-covers and coats of metal and bows and stones for sending from leather bands.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:23 @So Uzziah went to rest with his fathers; and they put his body into the earth in the field used for the resting-place of the kings, for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:1 @Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king; and he was ruling in Jerusalem for sixteen years; and his mother's name was Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:2 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Uzziah had done; but he did not go into the Temple of the Lord. And the people still went on in their evil ways.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:3 @He put up the higher doorway of the house of the Lord, and did much building on the wall of the Ophel.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:9 @And Jotham went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body into the earth in the town of David; and Ahaz his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:1 @Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for sixteen years; he did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord, like David his father:

bbe@2Chronicles:28:6 @For Pekah, the son of Remaliah, in one day put to death a hundred and twenty thousand men of Judah, all of them good fighting-men; because they had given up the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:8 @And the children of Israel took away as prisoners from their brothers, two hundred thousand, women and sons and daughters, and a great store of their goods, and took them to Samaria.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:9 @But a prophet of the Lord was there, named Oded; and he went out in front of the army which was coming into Samaria and said to them, Truly, because the Lord, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he gave them up into your hands, and you have put them to death in an outburst of wrath stretching up to heaven.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:10 @And now your purpose is to keep the children of Judah and Jerusalem as men-servants and women-servants under your yoke: but are there no sins against the Lord your God to be seen among yourselves?

bbe@2Chronicles:28:11 @And now give ear to me, and send back the prisoners whom you have taken from your brothers: for the wrath of the Lord is burning against you.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:13 @And said to them, You are not to let these prisoners come here; for what you are designing to do will be a cause of sin against the Lord to us, making even greater our sin and our wrongdoing, which now are great enough, and his wrath is burning against Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:18 @And the Philistines, forcing their way into the towns of the lowlands and the south of Judah, had taken Beth-shemesh and Aijalon and Gederoth and Soco, with their daughter-towns, as well as Timnah and Gimzo and their daughter-towns, and were living there.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:24 @And Ahaz got together the vessels of the house of God, cutting up all the vessels of the house of God, and shutting the doors of the Lord's house; and he made altars in every part of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:25 @And in every town of Judah he made high places where perfumes were burned to other gods, awaking the wrath of the Lord, the God of his fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:27 @And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body into the earth in Jerusalem; but they did not put him in the resting-place of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:1 @Hezekiah became king when he was twenty-five years old; and he was king in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; and his mother's name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:2 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David had done.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:4 @And he sent for the priests and the Levites, and got them together in the wide place on the east side,

bbe@2Chronicles:29:5 @And said to them, Give ear to me, O Levites: now make yourselves holy, and make holy the house of the Lord, the God of your fathers, and take away everything unclean from the holy place.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:6 @For our fathers have done evil, sinning in the eyes of the Lord our God, and have given him up, turning away their faces from the house of the Lord, and turning their backs on him.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:9 @For see, our fathers have been put to death with the sword, and our sons and daughters and wives have been taken away prisoners because of this.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:15 @And they got their brothers together and made themselves holy, and went in, as the king had said by the word of the Lord, to make the house of the Lord clean.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:16 @And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the Lord to make it clean, and everything unclean which was to be seen in the Temple of the Lord they took out into the outer square of the Lord's house, and the Levites got it together and took it away to the stream Kidron.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:20 @Then Hezekiah the king got up early, and got together the great men of the town, and went up to the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:34 @There were not enough priests for the work of cutting up all the burned offerings; so their brothers the Levites gave them help till the work was done and the priests had made themselves holy: for the Levites were more upright in heart to make themselves holy than the priests.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:35 @And there was a great amount of burned offerings, with the fat of the peace-offerings and the drink offerings for every burned offering. So the work of the Lord's house was put in order.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:3 @It was not possible to keep it at that time, because not enough priests had made themselves holy, and the people had not come together in Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:7 @Do not be like your fathers and your brothers, who were sinners against the Lord, the God of their fathers, so that he made them a cause of fear, as you see.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:8 @Now do not be hard-hearted, as your fathers were; but give yourselves to the Lord, and come into his holy place, which he has made his for ever, and be the servants of the Lord your God, so that the heat of his wrath may be turned away from you.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:9 @For if you come back to the Lord, those who took away your brothers and your children will have pity on them, and let them come back to this land: for the Lord your God is full of grace and mercy, and his face will not be turned away from you if you come back to him.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:11 @However, some of Asher and Manasseh and Zebulun put away their pride and came to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:13 @So a very great number of people came together at Jerusalem to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:17 @For there were still a number of the people there who had not made themselves holy: so the Levites had to put Passover lambs to death for those who were not clean, to make them holy to the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:19 @Who, with all his heart, is turned to God the Lord, the God of his fathers, even if he has not been made clean after the rules of the holy place

bbe@2Chronicles:30:22 @And Hezekiah said kind words to the Levites who were expert in the ordering of the worship of the Lord: so they kept the feast for seven days, offering peace-offerings and praising the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:23 @And by the desire of all the people, the feast went on for another seven days, and they kept the seven days with joy.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:25 @And all the people of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and those who had come from Israel, and men from other lands who had come from Israel or who were living in Judah, were glad with great joy.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:26 @So there was great joy in Jerusalem: for nothing like this had been seen in Jerusalem from the time of Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:10 @And Azariah, the chief priest, of the family of Zadok, said in answer, From the time when the people first came with their offerings into the house of the Lord, we have had food enough, and more than enough: for the blessing of the Lord is on his people; and there is this great store which has not been used.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:12 @And in them they put all the offerings and the tenths and the holy things, keeping nothing back, and over them was Conaniah the Levite, with Shimei his brother second to him.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:13 @And Jehiel and Azaziah and Nahath and Asahel and Jerimoth and Jozabad and Eliel and Ismachiah and Mahath and Benaiah were overseers, under the directions of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the order of Hezekiah the king and Azariah, the ruler of the house of God.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:15 @And under him were Eden and Miniamin and Jeshua and Shemaiah and Amariah and Shecaniah, in the towns of the priests, who were made responsible for giving it to all their brothers, by divisions, to small and great:

bbe@2Chronicles:31:17 @And the families of the priests were listed by their fathers' names, but the Levites, of twenty years old and over, were listed in relation to their work in their divisions;

bbe@2Chronicles:31:19 @And as for the sons of Aaron, the priests, living in the country on the outskirts of their towns, every different town there were men, marked out by name, to give their part of the goods to all the males among the priests, and to all who were listed among the Levites.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:1 @Now after these things and this true-hearted work, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came into Judah, and put his army in position before the walled towns of Judah, designing to make his way into them by force.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:2 @And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come for the purpose of fighting against Jerusalem,

bbe@2Chronicles:32:4 @So they got together a great number of people, and had all the water-springs and the stream flowing through the land stopped up, saying, Why let the kings of Assyria come and have much water?

bbe@2Chronicles:32:5 @Then he took heart, building up the wall where it was broken down, and making its towers higher, and building another wall outside; and he made strong the Millo in the town of David, and got together a great store of all sorts of instruments of war.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:6 @And he put war chiefs over the people, and sent for them all to come together to him in the wide place at the doorway into the town, and to give them heart he said to them,

bbe@2Chronicles:32:7 @Be strong and take heart; have no fear, and do not be troubled on account of the king of Assyria and all the great army with him: for there is a greater with us.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:9 @After this, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, sent his servants to Jerusalem (at that time he was stationed with all his army in front of Lachish), to say to Hezekiah and all the men of Judah in Jerusalem,

bbe@2Chronicles:32:10 @Sennacherib, king of Assyria, says, In what are you placing your hope, waiting here in the walled town of Jerusalem?

bbe@2Chronicles:32:13 @Have you no knowledge of what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of every land? were the gods of the nations of those lands able to keep their land from falling into my hands?

bbe@2Chronicles:32:14 @Who was there among all the gods of those nations, which my fathers put to destruction, who was able to keep his people safe from my hands? and is it possible that your God will keep you safe from my hands?

bbe@2Chronicles:32:15 @So do not be tricked by Hezekiah or let him get you to do this, and do not put any faith in what he says: for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to keep his people safe from my hands, or the hands of my fathers: how much less will your God keep you safe from my hands!

bbe@2Chronicles:32:17 @And he sent letters, in addition, to put shame on the Lord, the God of Israel, and to say evil against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of other lands have not been able to keep their people safe from my hands, no more will the God of Hezekiah keep his people safe from my hands.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:21 @And the Lord sent an angel who put to death all the men of war and the chiefs and the captains in the army of the king of Assyria. So he went back to his country in shame. And when he came into the house of his god, his sons, the offspring of his body, put him to death there with the sword.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:22 @So the Lord gave Hezekiah and the people of Jerusalem salvation from the power of Sennacherib, the king of Assyria, and from all others, giving them rest on every side.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:29 @And he made towns for himself, and got together much property in flocks and herds: for God had given him great wealth.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:30 @It was Hezekiah who had the higher spring of the water of Gihon stopped, and the water taken down on the west side of the town of David. In everything he undertook, Hezekiah did well.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:33 @So Hezekiah went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body into the higher part of the resting-places of the sons of David: and all Judah and the people of Jerusalem gave him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:3 @For he put up again the high places which had been pulled down by his father Hezekiah; and he made altars for the Baals, and pillars of wood, and was a worshipper and servant of all the stars of heaven;

bbe@2Chronicles:33:8 @And never again will I let the feet of Israel be moved out of the land which I have given to their fathers; if only they will take care to do all my orders, even all the law and the orders and the rules given to them by Moses.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:12 @And crying out to the Lord his God in his trouble, he made himself low before the God of his fathers,

bbe@2Chronicles:33:19 @And the prayer which he made to God, and how God gave him an answer, and all his sin and his wrongdoing, and the places where he made high places and put up pillars of wood and images, before he put away his pride, are recorded in the history of the seers.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:20 @So Manasseh went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body to rest in his house, and Amon his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:22 @He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Manasseh his father had done; and Amon made offerings to all the images which his father Manasseh had made, and was their servant.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:23 @He did not make himself low before the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done, but went on sinning more and more.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:2 @And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, walking in the ways of his father David, without turning to the right hand or to the left.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:3 @In the eighth year of his rule, while he was still young, his heart was first turned to the God of his father David; and in the twelfth year he undertook the clearing away of all the high places and the pillars and the images of wood and metal from Judah and Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:11 @Even to the woodworkers and builders to get cut stone and wood for joining the structure together and for making boards for the houses which the kings of Judah had given up to destruction.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:12 @And the men did the work well; and those who had authority over them were Jahath and Obadiah, Levites of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, who were to be responsible for seeing that the work was done; and others of the Levites, who were expert with instruments of music,

bbe@2Chronicles:34:13 @Had authority over the transport workers, giving directions to all who were doing any sort of work; and among the Levites there were scribes and overseers and door-keepers.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:21 @Go and get directions from the Lord for me and for those who are still in Israel and for Judah, about the words of this book which has come to light; for great is the wrath of the Lord which has been let loose on us, because our fathers have not kept the word of the Lord or done what is recorded in this book.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:22 @So Hilkiah, and those whom the king sent, went to Huldah the woman prophet, the wife of Shallum, the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, the keeper of the robes (now she was living in Jerusalem, in the second part of the town); and they had talk with her about this thing.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:25 @Because they have given me up, burning offerings to other gods and moving me to wrath by all the works of their hands; so my wrath is let loose on this place and will not be put out.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:28 @See, I will let you go to your fathers, and be put in your last resting-place in peace, and your eyes will not see all the evil which I will send on this place and on its people. So they took this news back to the king.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:29 @Then the king sent and got together all the responsible men of Judah and of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:32 @And he made all the people in Jerusalem and Benjamin give their word to keep it. And the people of Jerusalem kept the agreement of God, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:33 @Josiah took away all the disgusting things out of all the lands of the children of Israel, and made all who were in Israel servants of the Lord their God. And as long as he was living they were true to the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:5 @And take your positions in the holy place, grouped in the families of your brothers, the children of the people, and for every division let there be a part of a family of the Levites.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:6 @And put the Passover lamb to death, and make yourselves holy, and make it ready for your brothers, so that the orders given by the Lord through Moses may be done.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:9 @And Conaniah and Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brothers, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, the chiefs of the Levites, gave to the Levites for the Passover offerings five thousand small cattle and five hundred oxen.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:15 @And the sons of Asaph, the makers of melody, were in their places, as ordered by David and Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the king's seer; and the door-keepers were stationed at every door: there was no need for them to go away from their places, for their brothers the Levites made ready for them.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:24 @So his servants took him out of the line of war-carriages, and put him in his second carriage and took him to Jerusalem, where he came to his end, and they put his body in the resting-place of his fathers. And in all Judah and Jerusalem there was great weeping for Josiah.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:1 @Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz, the son of Josiah, and made him king in Jerusalem in place of his father.

bbe@Ezra:4:19 @And I gave orders for a search to be made, and it is certain that in the past this town has made trouble for kings, and that outbursts against authority have taken place there.

bbe@Ezra:4:20 @Further, there have been great kings in Jerusalem, ruling over all the country across the river, to whom they gave taxes and payments in goods and forced payments.

bbe@Ezra:5:12 @But when the God of heaven was moved to wrath by our fathers, he gave them up into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, the Chaldaean, who sent destruction on this house and took the people away into Babylon

bbe@Ezra:6:1 @Then Darius the king gave an order and a search was made in the house of the records, where the things of value were stored up in Babylon.

bbe@Ezra:6:3 @In the first year of Cyrus the king, Cyrus the king made an order: In connection with the house of God at Jerusalem, let the house be put up, the place where they make offerings, and let the earth for the bases be put in place; let it be sixty cubits high and sixty cubits wide;

bbe@Ezra:6:8 @Further, I give orders as to what you are to do for the responsible men of the Jews in connection with the building of this house of God: that from the king's wealth, that is, from the taxes got together in the land over the river, the money needed is to be given to these men readily, so that their work may not be stopped.

bbe@Ezra:6:20 @For the priests and the Levites had made themselves clean together; they were all clean: and they put the Passover lamb to death for all those who had come back, and for their brothers the priests and for themselves.

bbe@Ezra:6:21 @And the children of Israel, who had come back, and all those who were joined to them, after separating themselves from the evil ways of the people of the land to become the servants of the Lord, the God of Israel, took food together,

bbe@Ezra:7:16 @As well as all the silver and gold which you get from the land of Babylon, together with the offering of the people and of the priests, freely given for the house of their God, which is in Jerusalem:

bbe@Ezra:7:18 @And whatever seems right to you and to your brothers to do with the rest of the silver and gold, that do, as may be pleasing to your God.

bbe@Ezra:7:23 @Whatever is ordered by the God of heaven, let it be done completely for the house of the God of heaven; so that there may not be wrath against the kingdom of the king and his sons.

bbe@Ezra:7:27 @Praise be to the Lord, the God of our fathers, who has put such a thing into the heart of the king, to make fair the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem;

bbe@Ezra:7:28 @And has given mercy to me before the king and his government and before all the king's great captains. And I was made strong by the hand of the Lord my God which was on me, and I got together out of Israel chief men to go up with me.

bbe@Ezra:8:15 @And I made them come together by the river flowing to Ahava; and we were there in tents for three days: and after viewing the people and the priests I saw that no sons of Levi were there.

bbe@Ezra:8:17 @And I sent them to Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and gave them orders what to say to Iddo and his brothers the Nethinim at the place Casiphia, so that they might come back to us with men to do the work of the house of our God.

bbe@Ezra:8:18 @And by the help of our God they got for us Ish-sechel, one of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah with his sons and brothers, eighteen;

bbe@Ezra:8:19 @And Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty;

bbe@Ezra:8:21 @Then I gave orders for a time of going without food, there by the river Ahava, so that we might make ourselves low before our God in prayer, requesting from him a straight way for us and for our little ones and for all our substance.

bbe@Ezra:8:24 @So I put on one side twelve of the chiefs of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them,

bbe@Ezra:8:25 @And gave to them by weight the silver and the gold and the vessels, all the offering for the house of our God which the king and his wise men and his captains and all Israel there present had given:

bbe@Ezra:8:28 @And I said to them, You are holy to the Lord and the vessels are holy: and the silver and the gold are an offering freely given to the Lord, the God of your fathers.

bbe@Ezra:8:32 @And we came to Jerusalem and were there for three days.

bbe@Ezra:9:4 @Then everyone who went in fear of the words of the God of Israel, because of the sin of those who had come back, came together to me; and I kept where I was, overcome with grief, till the evening offering.

bbe@Ezra:9:6 @I said, O my God, shame keeps me from lifting up my face to you, my God: for our sins are increased higher than our heads and our evil-doing has come up to heaven.

bbe@Ezra:9:7 @From the days of our fathers till this day we have been great sinners; and for our sins, we and our kings and our priests have been given up into the hands of the kings of the lands, to the sword and to prison and to loss of goods and to shame of face, as it is this day.

bbe@Ezra:9:11 @Which you gave to your servants the prophets, saying, The land into which you are going, to take it for a heritage, is an unclean land, because of the evil lives of the peoples of the land and their disgusting ways, which have made the land unclean from end to end.

bbe@Ezra:9:12 @So now do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons or do anything for their peace or well-being for ever; so that you may be strong, living on the good of the land, and handing it on to your children for a heritage for ever.

bbe@Ezra:9:13 @And after everything which has come on us because of our evil-doing and our great sin, and seeing that the punishment which you, O God, have given us, is less than the measure of our sins, and that you have kept from death those of us who are here;

bbe@Ezra:9:14 @Are we again to go against your orders, taking wives from among the people who do these disgusting things? would you not be angry with us till our destruction was complete, till there was not one who got away safe?

bbe@Ezra:10:1 @Now while Ezra was making his prayer and his statement of wrongdoing, weeping and falling down before the house of God, a very great number of men and women and children out of Israel came together round him: for the people were weeping bitterly.

bbe@Ezra:10:2 @And Shecaniah, the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answering, said to Ezra, We have done evil against our God, and have taken as our wives strange women of the peoples of the land: but still there is hope for Israel in this question.

bbe@Ezra:10:6 @Then Ezra got up from before the house of God and went into the room of Jehohanan, the son of Eliashib; but when he came there, he took no food or drink, for he was sorrowing for the sin of those who had come back.

bbe@Ezra:10:7 @And they made a public statement through all Judah and Jerusalem, to all those who had come back, that they were to come together to Jerusalem;

bbe@Ezra:10:9 @Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin came together to Jerusalem before three days were past; it was the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month; and all the people were seated in the wide square in front of the house of God, shaking with fear because of this business and because of the great rain

bbe@Ezra:10:11 @So now, give praise to the Lord, the God of your fathers, and do his pleasure; and make yourselves separate from the peoples of the land and from the strange women.

bbe@Ezra:10:16 @So those who had come back did so. And Ezra the priest, with certain heads of families, by their fathers' families, all of them by their names, were marked out; and on the first day of the tenth month they took their places to go into the question with care.

bbe@Ezra:10:18 @And among the sons of the priests who were married to strange women were these: of the sons of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak and his brothers, Maaseiah and Eliezer and Jarib and Gedaliah.

bbe@Nehemiah:1:2 @That Hanani, one of my brothers, came with certain men from Judah; and in answer to my request for news of the Jews who had been prisoners and had got away, and of Jerusalem,

bbe@Nehemiah:1:3 @They said to me, The small band of Jews now living there in the land are in great trouble and shame: the wall of Jerusalem has been broken down, and its doorways burned with fire.

bbe@Nehemiah:1:6 @Let your ear now take note and let your eyes be open, so that you may give ear to the prayer of your servant, which I make before you at this time, day and night, for the children of Israel, your servants, while I put before you the sins of the children of Israel, which we have done against you: truly, I and my father's people are sinners.

bbe@Nehemiah:1:9 @But if you come back to me and keep my orders and do them, even if those of you who have been forced out are living in the farthest parts of heaven, I will get them from there, and take them back to the place marked out by me for the resting-place of my name.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:3 @And said to the king, May the king be living for ever: is it not natural for my face to be sad, when the town, the place where the bodies of my fathers are at rest, has been made waste and its doorways burned with fire?

bbe@Nehemiah:2:5 @And I said to the king, If it is the king's pleasure, and if your servant has your approval, send me to Judah, to the town where the bodies of my fathers are at rest, so that I may take in hand the building of it.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:7 @Further, I said to the king, If it is the king's pleasure, let letters be given to me for the rulers across the river, so that they may let me go through till I come to Judah;

bbe@Nehemiah:2:11 @So I came to Jerusalem and was there three days.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:13 @And I went out by night, through the doorway of the valley, and past the dragon's water-spring as far as the place where waste material was put, viewing the walls of Jerusalem which were broken down, and the doorways which had been burned with fire.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:14 @Then I went on to the door of the fountain and to the king's pool: but there was no room for my beast to get through.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:16 @And the chiefs had no knowledge of where I had been or what I was doing; and I had not then said anything to the Jews or to the priests or the great ones or the chiefs or the rest of those who were doing the work.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:1 @Then Eliashib, the chief priest, got up with his brothers the priests, and took in hand the building of the sheep doorway; they made it holy and put its doors in position; as far as the tower of Hammeah they made it holy, even to the tower of Hananel.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:11 @Malchijah, the son of Harim, and Hasshub, the son of Pahath-moab, were working on another part, and the tower of the ovens.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:13 @Hanun and the people of Zanoah were working on the doorway of the valley; they put it up and put up its doors, with their locks and rods, and a thousand cubits of wall as far as the doorway where the waste material was placed.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:14 @And Malchijah, the son of Rechab, the ruler of the division of Beth-haccherem, made good the doorway of the waste, building it up and putting up its doors, with their locks and rods.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:18 @After him were working their brothers, Bavvai, the son of Henadad, ruler of half the division of Keilah.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:19 @And by his side was working Ezer, the son of Jeshua, the ruler of Mizpah, making good another part opposite the way up to the store of arms at the turning of the wall.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:20 @After him Baruch, the son of Zabbai, was hard at work on another part, from the turning of the wall to the door of the house of Eliashib, the chief priest.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:21 @After him Meremoth, the son of Uriah, the son of Hakkoz, was working on another part, from the door of the house of Eliashib as far as the end of his house.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:23 @After them came Benjamin and Hasshub, opposite their house. After them Azariah, the son of Maaseiah, the son of Ananiah, made good the wall by the house where he himself was living.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:24 @After him Binnui, the son of Henadad, was working on another part, from the house of Azariah as far as the turning of the wall and the angle.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:25 @Palal, the son of Uzai, made good the wall opposite the angle and the tower which comes out from the higher part of the king's house, by the open space of the watch. After him was Pedaiah, the son of Parosh.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:27 @After him the Tekoites were making good another part, opposite the great tower which comes out, and up to the wall of the Ophel.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:28 @Further on, past the horse doorway, the priests were at work, every one opposite his house.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:30 @After him Hananiah, the son of Shelemiah, and Hanun, the sixth son of Zalaph, were making good another part. After him Meshullam, the son of Berechiah, made good the wall opposite his room.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:4 @Give ear, O our God, for we are looked down on: let their words of shame be turned back on themselves, and let them be given up to wasting in a land where they are prisoners:

bbe@Nehemiah:4:6 @So we went on building the wall; and all the wall was joined together half-way up: for the people were working hard.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:8 @And they made designs, all of them together, to come and make an attack on Jerusalem, causing trouble there.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:10 @And Judah said, The strength of the workmen is giving way, and there is much waste material; it is impossible for us to put up the wall

bbe@Nehemiah:4:14 @And after looking, I got up and said to the great ones and to the chiefs and to the rest of the people, Have no fear of them: keep in mind the Lord who is great and greatly to be feared, and take up arms for your brothers, your sons, and your daughters, your wives and your houses.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:17 @Those who were building the wall and those who were moving material did their part, everyone working with one hand, with his spear in the other;

bbe@Nehemiah:4:19 @And I said to the great ones and the chiefs and the rest of the people, The work is great and widely spaced and we are far away from one another on the wall:

bbe@Nehemiah:4:20 @Wherever you may be when the horn is sounded, come here to us; our God will be fighting for us.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:23 @So not one of us, I or my brothers or my servants or the watchmen who were with me, took off his clothing, everyone went armed to the water.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:1 @Then there was a great outcry from the people and their wives against their countrymen the Jews.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:2 @For there were some who said, We, our sons and our daughters, are a great number: let us get grain, so that we may have food for our needs.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:3 @And there were some who said, We are giving our fields and our vine-gardens and our houses for debt: let us get grain because we are in need.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:4 @And there were others who said, We have given up our fields and our vine-gardens to get money for the king's taxes.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:5 @But our flesh is the same as the flesh of our countrymen, and our children as their children: and now we are giving our sons and daughters into the hands of others, to be their servants, and some of our daughters are servants even now: and we have no power to put a stop to it; for other men have our fields and our vine-gardens.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:7 @And after turning it over in my mind, I made a protest to the chiefs and the rulers, and said to them, Every one of you is taking interest from his countryman. And I got together a great meeting of protest.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:8 @And I said to them, We have given whatever we were able to give, to make our brothers the Jews free, who were servants and prisoners of the nations: and would you now give up your brothers for a price, and are they to become our property? Then they said nothing, answering not a word.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:1 @Now when word was given to Sanballat and Tobiah and to Geshem the Arabian and to the rest of our haters, that I had done the building of the wall and that there were no more broken places in it (though even then I had not put up the doors in the doorways);

bbe@Nehemiah:6:7 @And that you have prophets preaching about you in Jerusalem, and saying, There is a king in Judah: now an account of these things will be sent to the king. So come now, and let us have a discussion.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:17 @And further, in those days the chiefs of Judah sent a number of letters to Tobiah, and his letters came to them.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:18 @For in Judah there were a number of people who had made an agreement by oath with him, because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah, the son of Arah; and his son Jehohanan had taken as his wife the daughter of Meshullam, the son of Berechiah.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:2 @I made my brother Hanani, and Hananiah, the ruler of the tower, responsible for the government of Jerusalem: for he was a man of good faith, fearing God more than most.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:5 @And my God put it into my heart to get together the rulers and the chiefs and the people so that they might be listed by families. And I came across a record of the names of those who came up at the first, and in it I saw these words:

bbe@Nehemiah:7:33 @The men of the other Nebo, fifty-two.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:34 @The children of the other Elam, a thousand, two hundred and fifty-four.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:57 @The children of Solomon's servants: the children of Sotai, the children of Sophereth, the children of Perida,

bbe@Nehemiah:7:59 @The children of Shephatiah, the children of Hattil, the children of Pochereth-hazzebaim, the children of Amon.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:61 @All these were the people who went up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but because they had no knowledge of their fathers' families or offspring, it was not certain if they were Israelites:

bbe@Nehemiah:7:64 @They made search for their record among the lists of families, but their names were nowhere to be seen, so they were looked on as unclean and no longer priests.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:66 @The number of all the people together was forty-two thousand, three hundred and sixty;

bbe@Nehemiah:7:67 @As well as their men-servants and their women-servants, of whom there were seven thousand, three hundred and thirty-seven; and they had two hundred and forty-five men and women to make music.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:1 @And when the seventh month came, the children of Israel were in their towns. And all the people came together like one man into the wide place in front of the water-doorway; and they made a request to Ezra the scribe that he would put before them the book of the law of Moses which the Lord had given to Israel.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:5 @And Ezra took the book, opening it before the eyes of all the people (for he was higher than the people); and when it was open, all the people got to their feet:

bbe@Nehemiah:8:7 @And Jeshua and Bani and Sherebiah and Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites made the law clear to the people: and the people kept in their places.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:9 @And Nehemiah, who was the Tirshatha, and Ezra, the priest and scribe, and the Levites who were the teachers of the people, said to all the people, This day is holy to the Lord your God; let there be no sorrow or weeping; for all the people were weeping on hearing the words of the law.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:10 @Then he said to them, Go away now, and take the fat for your food and the sweet for your drink, and send some to him for whom nothing is made ready: for this day is holy to our Lord: and let there be no grief in your hearts; for the joy of the Lord is your strong place.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:12 @And all the people went away to take food and drink, and to send food to others, and to be glad, because the words which were said to them had been made clear.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:13 @And on the second day the heads of families of all the people and the priests and the Levites came together to Ezra the scribe, to give attention to the words of the law.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:17 @All the people who had been prisoners and had come back, made tents and were living in them: for from the time of Jeshua, the son of Nun, till that day, the children of Israel had not done so. And there was very great joy.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:1 @Now on the twenty-fourth day of this month the children of Israel came together, taking no food and putting haircloth and dust on their bodies.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:2 @And the seed of Israel made themselves separate from all the men of other nations, publicly requesting forgiveness for their sins and the wrongdoing of their fathers.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:4 @Then Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani took their places on the steps of the Levites, crying in a loud voice to the Lord their God.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:5 @Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah said, Get up and give praise to the Lord your God for ever and ever. Praise be to your great name which is lifted up high over all blessing and praise.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:9 @And you saw the trouble of our fathers in Egypt, and their cry came to your ears by the Red Sea;

bbe@Nehemiah:9:15 @And you gave them bread from heaven when they were in need, and made water come out of the rock for their drink, and gave them orders to go in and take for their heritage the land which your hand had been lifted up to give them.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:16 @But they and our fathers, in their pride, made their necks stiff, and gave no attention to your orders,

bbe@Nehemiah:9:20 @And you gave your good spirit to be their teacher, and did not keep back your manna from their mouths, and gave them water when they had need of it

bbe@Nehemiah:9:22 @And you gave them kingdoms and peoples, making distribution to them in every part of the land: so they took for their heritage the land of Sihon, even the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og, king of Bashan.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:23 @And you made their children as great in number as the stars of heaven, and took them into the land, of which you had said to their fathers that they were to go in and take it for themselves.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:32 @And now, our God, the great, the strong, the God who is to be feared, who keeps faith and mercy, let not all this trouble seem small to you, which has come on us, and on our kings and our rulers and on our priests and our prophets and our fathers and on all your people from the time of the kings of Assyria till this day.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:34 @And our kings, our rulers, our priests, and our fathers have not kept your law or given attention to your orders and your witness, with which you gave witness against them.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:36 @Now, today, we are servants, and as for the land which you gave to our fathers, so that the produce of it and the good might be theirs, see, we are servants in it:

bbe@Nehemiah:10:10 @And their brothers, Shebaniah, Hodiah, Kelita, Pelaiah, Hanan,

bbe@Nehemiah:10:12 @Zaccur, Sherebiah, Shebaniah,

bbe@Nehemiah:10:29 @They were united with their brothers, their rulers, and put themselves under a curse and an oath, to keep their steps in the way of God's law, which was given by Moses, the servant of God, and to keep and do all the orders of the Lord, our Lord, and his decisions and his rules;

bbe@Nehemiah:10:36 @As well as the first of our sons and of our cattle, as it is recorded in the law, and the first lambs of our herds and of our flocks, which are to be taken to the house of our God, to the priests who are servants in the house of our God:

bbe@Nehemiah:10:39 @For the children of Israel and the children of Levi are to take the lifted offering of the grain and wine and oil into the rooms where the vessels of the holy place are, together with the priests and the door-keepers and the makers of music: and we will not give up caring for the house of our God.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:1 @And the rulers of the people were living in Jerusalem: the rest of the people made selection, by the decision of chance, of one out of every ten to be living in Jerusalem, the holy town; the other nine to go to the other towns.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:3 @Now these are the chiefs of the divisions of the country who were living in Jerusalem: but in the towns of Judah everyone was living on his heritage in the towns, that is, Israel, the priests, the Levites, the Nethinim, and the children of Solomon's servants.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:4 @And in Jerusalem there were living certain of the children of Judah and of Benjamin. Of the children of Judah: Athaiah, the son of Uzziah, the son of Zechariah, the son of Amariah, the son of Shephatiah, the son of Mahalalel, of the children of Perez;

bbe@Nehemiah:11:12 @And their brothers who did the work of the house, eight hundred and twenty-two; and Adaiah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Pelaliah, the son of Amzi, the son of Zechariah, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah,

bbe@Nehemiah:11:13 @And his brothers, heads of families, two hundred and forty-two; and Amashsai, the son of Azarel, the son of Ahzai, the son of Meshillemoth, the son of Immer,

bbe@Nehemiah:11:14 @And their brothers, men of war, a hundred and twenty-eight; and their overseer was Zabdiel, the son of Haggedolim.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:17 @And Mattaniah, the son of Mica, the son of Zabdi, the son of Asaph, who had to give the first note of the song of praise in prayer, and Bakbukiah, the second among his brothers, and Abda, the son of Shammua, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:19 @In addition the door-keepers, Akkub, Talmon, and their brothers who kept watch at the doors, were a hundred and seventy-two.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:20 @And the rest of Israel, of the priests, the Levites, were in all the towns of Judah, every one in his heritage.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:23 @For there was an order from the king about them and a regular amount for the music-makers, for their needs day by day.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:7 @Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chiefs of the priests and of their brothers in the days of Jeshua.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:8 @And the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who was over the music-makers, he and his brothers.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:9 @And Bakbukiah and Unno, their brothers, were opposite them in their watches.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:10 @And Jeshua was the father of Joiakim, and Joiakim was the father of Eliashib, and Eliashib was the father of Joiada,

bbe@Nehemiah:12:11 @And Joiada was the father of Jonathan, and Jonathan was the father of Jaddua.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:12 @And in the days of Joiakim there were priests, heads of families: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:24 @And the chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua, the son of Kadmiel, with their brothers opposite them, to give blessing and praise as ordered by David, the man of God, watch against watch.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:28 @And the sons of the music-makers came together from the lowland round about Jerusalem and from the daughter-towns of the Netophathites,

bbe@Nehemiah:12:31 @Then I made the rulers of Judah come up on the wall, and I put in position two great bands of them who gave praise, walking in ordered lines; one went to the right on the wall, in the direction of the doorway where the waste was put;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:36 @And his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel and Judah, Hanani, with the music-instruments of David, the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was at their head;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:38 @And the other band of those who gave praise went to the left, and I went after them with half the people, on the wall, over the tower of the ovens, as far as the wide wall;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:44 @And on that day certain men were put over the rooms where the things which had been given were stored, for the lifted offerings and the first-fruits and the tenths, and to take into them the amounts, from the fields of every town, fixed by the law for the priests and the Levites: for Judah was glad on account of the priests and the Levites who were in their places.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:46 @For in the days of David and Asaph in the past, there was a master of the music, and songs of blessing and praise to God.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:1 @On that day there was a reading from the book of Moses in the hearing of the people; and they saw that it said in the book that no Ammonite or Moabite might ever come into the meeting of God;

bbe@Nehemiah:13:5 @Had made ready for him a great room, where at one time they kept the meal offerings, the perfume, and the vessels and the tenths of the grain and wine and oil which were given by order to the Levites and the music-makers and the door-keepers, and the lifted offerings for the priests.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:11 @Then I made protests to the chiefs, and said, Why has the house of God been given up? And I got them together and put them in their places.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:13 @And I made controllers over the store-houses, Shelemiah the priest and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and with them was Hanan, the son of Zaccur the son of Mattaniah: they were taken to be true men and their business was the distribution of these things to their brothers.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:16 @And there were men of Tyre there, who came with fish and all sorts of goods, trading with the children of Judah and in Jerusalem on the Sabbath.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:18 @Did not your fathers do the same, and did not our God send all this evil on us and on this town? but you are causing more wrath to come on Israel by not keeping the Sabbath holy.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:26 @Was it not in these things that Solomon, king of Israel, did wrong? among a number of nations there was no king like him, and he was dear to his God, and God made him king over all Israel: but even he was made to do evil by strange women.

bbe@Esther:1:1 @Now it came about in the days of Ahasuerus, (that Ahasuerus who was ruler of a hundred and twenty-seven divisions of the kingdom, from India as far as Ethiopia:)

bbe@Esther:1:2 @That in those days, when King Ahasuerus was ruling in Shushan, his strong town,

bbe@Esther:1:3 @In the third year of his rule he gave a feast to all his captains and his servants; and the captains of the army of Persia and Media, the great men and the rulers of the divisions of his kingdom, were present before him;

bbe@Esther:1:4 @And for a long time, even a hundred and eighty days, he let them see all the wealth and the glory of his kingdom and the great power and honour which were his.

bbe@Esther:1:5 @And at the end of that time, the king gave a feast for all the people who were present in Shushan, the king's town, small as well as great, for seven days, in the outer square of the garden of the king's house.

bbe@Esther:1:6 @There were fair hangings of white and green and blue, fixed with cords of purple and the best linen to silver rings and pillars of polished stone: the seats were of gold and silver on a floor of red and white and yellow and black stone.

bbe@Esther:1:7 @And they gave them drink in gold vessels, every vessel being different, and wine of the kingdom, freely given by the king.

bbe@Esther:1:8 @And the drinking was in keeping with the law; no one was forced: for the king had given orders to all the chief servants of his house to do as was pleasing to every man.

bbe@Esther:1:9 @And Vashti the queen gave a feast for the women in the house of King Ahasuerus.

bbe@Esther:1:10 @On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was glad with wine, he gave orders to Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven unsexed servants who were waiting before Ahasuerus the king,

bbe@Esther:1:11 @That Vashti the queen was to come before him, crowned with her crown, and let the people and the captains see her: for she was very beautiful.

bbe@Esther:1:12 @But when the servants gave her the king's order, Vashti the queen said she would not come: then the king was very angry, and his heart was burning with wrath.

bbe@Esther:1:13 @And the king said to the wise men, who had knowledge of the times, (for this was the king's way with all who were expert in law and in the giving of decisions:

bbe@Esther:1:14 @And second only to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven rulers of Persia and Media, who were friends of the king, and had the first places in the kingdom:)

bbe@Esther:1:15 @What is to be done by law to Vashti the queen, because she has not done what King Ahasuerus, by his servants, gave her orders to do?

bbe@Esther:1:16 @And before the king and the captains, Memucan gave his answer: Vashti the queen has done wrong, not only to the king, but to all the captains and to all the peoples in all the divisions of the kingdom of King Ahasuerus;

bbe@Esther:1:17 @For news of what the queen has done will come to the ears of all women, and they will no longer give respect to their husbands when it is said to them, King Ahasuerus gave orders for Vashti the queen to come before him and she came not.

bbe@Esther:1:18 @And the wives of the captains of Persia and Media, hearing what the queen has done, will say the same to all the king's captains. So there will be much shame and wrath.

bbe@Esther:1:19 @If it is pleasing to the king, let an order go out from him, and let it be recorded among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, so that it may never be changed, that Vashti is never again to come before King Ahasuerus; and let the king give her place to another who is better than she.

bbe@Esther:1:20 @And when this order, given by the king, is made public through all his kingdom (for it is great), all the wives will give honour to their husbands, great as well as small.

bbe@Esther:1:21 @And this suggestion seemed good to the king and the captains; and the king did as Memucan said;

bbe@Esther:1:22 @And sent letters to all the divisions of the kingdom, to every division in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in the language which was theirs, saying that every man was to be the ruler in his house, and that this order was to be given out in the language of his people.

bbe@Esther:2:1 @After these things, when the king's feelings were calmer, the thought of Vashti and what she had done and the order he had made against her, came back to his mind.

bbe@Esther:2:2 @Then the servants who were waiting on the king said to him, Let search be made for some fair young virgins for the king:

bbe@Esther:2:3 @Let the king give authority to certain men in all the divisions of his kingdom, to get together all the fair young virgins and send them to Shushan, the king's town, to the women's house, under the care of Hegai, the king's servant, the keeper of the women: and let the things needed for making them clean be given to them;

bbe@Esther:2:4 @And let the girl who is pleasing to the king be queen in place of Vashti. And the king was pleased with this suggestion; and he did so.

bbe@Esther:2:5 @Now there was a certain Jew in Shushan named Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite;

bbe@Esther:2:6 @Who had been taken away from Jerusalem among those who had been made prisoner with Jeconiah, king of Judah, when Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, had taken him away.

bbe@Esther:2:7 @And he had been a father to Hadassah, that is Esther, the daughter of his father's brother: for she had no father or mother, and she was very beautiful; and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai took her for his daughter.

bbe@Esther:2:8 @So when the order made by the king was publicly given out, and a number of girls had been placed in the care of Hegai in the king's house in Shushan, Esther was taken into the king's house and put in the care of Hegai, the keeper of the women.

bbe@Esther:2:9 @And he was pleased with the girl and was kind to her; and he quickly gave her what was needed for making her clean, and the things which were hers by right, and seven servant-girls who were to be hers from the king's house: and he had her and her servant-girls moved to the best place in the women's part of the house.

bbe@Esther:2:10 @Esther had not said what family or people she came from, for Mordecai had given her orders not to do so.

bbe@Esther:2:11 @And every day Mordecai took his walk before the square of the women's house, to see how Esther was and what would be done to her.

bbe@Esther:2:12 @Now every girl, when her turn came, had to go in to King Ahasuerus, after undergoing, for a space of twelve months, what was ordered by the law for the women (for this was the time necessary for making them clean, that is, six months with oil of myrrh and six months with sweet perfumes and such things as are needed for making women clean):

bbe@Esther:2:13 @And in this way the girl went in to the king; whatever she had a desire for was given to her to take with her from the women's house into the house of the king.

bbe@Esther:2:14 @In the evening she went, and on the day after she came back to the second house of the women, into the keeping of Shaashgaz, one of the king's unsexed servants who had the care of the king's wives: only if the king had delight in her and sent for her by name did she go in to him again.

bbe@Esther:2:15 @Now when the time came for Esther, the daughter of Abihail, his father's brother, whom Mordecai had taken as his daughter, to go in to the king, she made request for nothing but what Hegai, the king's servant and keeper of the women, had given her. And Esther was looked on kindly by all who saw her.

bbe@Esther:2:16 @So Esther was taken in to King Ahasuerus in his house in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his rule.

bbe@Esther:2:17 @And Esther was more pleasing to the king than all the women, and to his eyes she was fairer and more full of grace than all the other virgins: so he put his crown on her head and made her queen in place of Vashti.

bbe@Esther:2:18 @Then the king gave a great feast for all his captains and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he gave orders through all the divisions of his kingdom for a day of rest from work, and gave wealth from his store.

bbe@Esther:2:19 @And when the virgins came together in the second house of the women, Mordecai took his seat in the doorway of the king's house.

bbe@Esther:2:20 @Esther had still said nothing of her family or her people, as Mordecai had given her orders; for Esther did what Mordecai said, as when she was living with him.

bbe@Esther:2:21 @In those days, while Mordecai was seated at the king's doorway, two of the king's servants, Bigthan and Teresh, keepers of the door, being angry, were looking for a chance to make an attack on King Ahasuerus.

bbe@Esther:2:22 @And Mordecai, having knowledge of their purpose, sent word of it to Esther the queen; and Esther gave the news to the king in Mordecai's name.

bbe@Esther:2:23 @And when the thing had been looked into, it was seen to be true, and the two of them were put to death by hanging on a tree: and it was put down in the records before the king.

bbe@Esther:3:1 @After these things, by the order of the king, Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, was lifted up and given a position of honour and a higher place than all the other captains who were with him.

bbe@Esther:3:2 @And all the king's servants who were in the king's house went down to the earth before Haman and gave him honour: for so the king had given orders. But Mordecai did not go down before him or give him honour.

bbe@Esther:3:3 @Then the king's servants who were in the king's house said to Mordecai, Why do you go against the king's order?

bbe@Esther:3:4 @Now when they had said this to him day after day and he gave no attention, they let Haman have news of it, to see if Mordecai's behaviour would be overlooked: for he had said to them that he was a Jew.

bbe@Esther:3:5 @And when Haman saw that Mordecai did not go down before him and give him honour, Haman was full of wrath.

bbe@Esther:3:6 @But it was not enough for him to make an attack on Mordecai only; for they had made clear to him who Mordecai's people were; so Haman made it his purpose to put an end to all the Jews, even Mordecai's people, through all the kingdom of Ahasuerus.

bbe@Esther:3:7 @In the first month, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, from day to day and from month to month they went on looking for a sign given by Pur (that is chance) before Haman, till the sign came out for the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month Adar.

bbe@Esther:3:8 @And Haman said to King Ahasuerus, There is a certain nation living here and there in small groups among the people in all the divisions of your kingdom; their laws are different from those of any other nation, and they do not keep the king's laws: for this reason it is not right for the king to let them be.

bbe@Esther:3:9 @If it is the king's pleasure, let a statement ordering their destruction be put in writing: and I will give to those responsible for the king's business, ten thousand talents of silver for the king's store-house.

bbe@Esther:3:10 @And the king took his ring from his hand and gave it to Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the hater of the Jews

bbe@Esther:3:11 @And the king said to Haman, The money is yours, and the people, to do with them whatever seems right to you.

bbe@Esther:3:12 @Then on the thirteenth day of the first month, the king's scribes were sent for, and they put in writing Haman's orders to all the king's captains and the rulers of every division of his kingdom and the chiefs of every people: for every division of the kingdom in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in the language which was theirs; it was signed in the name of King Ahasuerus and stamped with the king's ring.

bbe@Esther:3:13 @And letters were sent by the runners into every division of the kingdom ordering the death and destruction of all Jews, young and old, little children and women, on the same day, even the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month Adar, and the taking of all their goods by force.

bbe@Esther:3:14 @A copy of the writing, to be made public in every part of the kingdom, was sent out to all the peoples, so that they might be ready when that day came.

bbe@Esther:3:15 @The runners went out quickly by the king's order, and a public statement was made in Shushan: and the king and Haman took wine together: but the town of Shushan was troubled.

bbe@Esther:4:1 @Now when Mordecai saw what was done, pulling off his robe, he put on haircloth, with dust on his head, and went out into the middle of the town, crying out with a loud and bitter cry.

bbe@Esther:4:2 @And he came even before the king's doorway; for no one might come inside the king's door clothed in haircloth.

bbe@Esther:4:3 @And in every part of the kingdom, wherever the king's word and his order came, there was great sorrow among the Jews, and weeping and crying and going without food; and numbers of them were stretched on the earth covered with dust and haircloth.

bbe@Esther:4:4 @And Esther's women and her servants came and gave her word of it. Then great was the grief of the queen: and she sent robes for Mordecai, so that his clothing of haircloth might be taken off; but he would not have them.

bbe@Esther:4:5 @Then Esther sent for Hathach, one of the king's unsexed servants whom he had given her for waiting on her, and she gave him orders to go to Mordecai and see what this was and why it was.

bbe@Esther:4:6 @So Hathach went out and saw Mordecai in the open square of the town before the king's doorway.

bbe@Esther:4:7 @And Mordecai gave him an account of what had taken place, and of the amount of money which Haman had said he would put into the king's store for the destruction of the Jews.

bbe@Esther:4:8 @And he gave him the copy of the order which had been given out in Shushan for their destruction, ordering him to let Esther see it, and to make it clear to her; and to say to her that she was to go in to the king, requesting his mercy, and making prayer for her people.

bbe@Esther:4:9 @And Hathach came back and gave Esther an account of what Mordecai had said.

bbe@Esther:4:10 @Then Esther sent Hathach to say to Mordecai:

bbe@Esther:4:11 @It is common knowledge among all the king's servants and the people of every part of the kingdom, that if anyone, man or woman, comes to the king in his inner room without being sent for, there is only one law for him, that he is to be put to death; only those to whom the king's rod of gold is stretched out may keep their lives: but I have not been sent for to come before the king these thirty days.

bbe@Esther:4:12 @And they said these words to Mordecai.

bbe@Esther:4:13 @Then Mordecai sent this answer back to Esther: Do not have the idea that you in the king's house will be safe from the fate of all the Jews.

bbe@Esther:4:14 @If at this time you say nothing, then help and salvation will come to the Jews from some other place, but you and your father's family will come to destruction: and who is to say that you have not come to the kingdom even for such a time as this?

bbe@Esther:4:15 @Then Esther sent them back to Mordecai with this answer:

bbe@Esther:4:16 @Go, get together all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and go without food for me, taking no food or drink night or day for three days: and I and my women will do the same; and so I will go in to the king, which is against the law: and if death is to be my fate, then let it come.

bbe@Esther:4:17 @So Mordecai went away and did everything as Esther had said.

bbe@Esther:5:1 @Now on the third day, Esther put on her queen's robes, and took her place in the inner room of the king's house, facing the king's house: and the king was seated on his high seat in the king's house, facing the doorway of the house.

bbe@Esther:5:2 @And when the king saw Esther the queen waiting in the inner room, looking kindly on her he put out the rod of gold in his hand to her. So Esther came near and put her fingers on the top of the rod.

bbe@Esther:5:3 @Then the king said, What is your desire, Queen Esther, and what is your request? I will give it to you, even to the half of my kingdom.

bbe@Esther:5:4 @And Esther in answer said, If it seems good to the king, let the king and Haman come today to the feast which I have made ready for him.

bbe@Esther:5:5 @Then the king said, Let Haman come quickly, so that what Esther has said may be done. So the king and Haman came to the feast which Esther had made ready.

bbe@Esther:5:6 @And while they were drinking wine the king said to Esther, What is your prayer? for it will be given to you and what is your request? for it will be done, even to the half of my kingdom.

bbe@Esther:5:7 @Then Esther said in answer, My prayer and my request is this:

bbe@Esther:5:8 @If I have the king's approval, and if it is the king's pleasure to give me my prayer and do my request, let the king and Haman come to the feast which I will make ready for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said.

bbe@Esther:5:9 @Then on that day Haman went out full of joy and glad in heart; but when he saw Mordecai in the king's doorway, and he did not get to his feet or give any sign of fear before him, Haman was full of wrath against Mordecai.

bbe@Esther:5:10 @But controlling himself, he went to his house; and he sent for his friends and Zeresh, his wife.

bbe@Esther:5:11 @And he gave them an account of the glories of his wealth, and the number of children he had, and the ways in which he had been honoured by the king, and how he had put him over the captains and servants of the king.

bbe@Esther:5:12 @And Haman said further, Truly, Esther the queen let no man but myself come in to the feast which she had made ready for the king; and tomorrow again I am to be her guest with the king

bbe@Esther:5:13 @But all this is nothing to me while I see Mordecai the Jew seated by the king's doorway.

bbe@Esther:5:14 @Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, Let a pillar, fifty cubits high, be made ready for hanging him, and in the morning get the king to give orders for the hanging of Mordecai: then you will be able to go to the feast with the king with a glad heart. And Haman was pleased with the suggestion, and he had the pillar made.

bbe@Esther:6:1 @That night the king was unable to get any sleep; and he sent for the books of the records; and while some one was reading them to the king,

bbe@Esther:6:2 @It came out that it was recorded in the book how Mordecai had given word of the designs of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's servants, keepers of the door, by whom an attack on the king had been designed.

bbe@Esther:6:3 @And the king said, What honour and reward have been given to Mordecai for this? Then the servants who were waiting on the king said, Nothing has been done for him.

bbe@Esther:6:4 @Then the king said, Who is in the outer room? Now Haman had come into the outer room to get the king's authority for the hanging of Mordecai on the pillar which he had made ready for him.

bbe@Esther:6:5 @And the king's servants said to him, See, Haman is waiting in the outer room. And the king said, Let him come in.

bbe@Esther:6:6 @So Haman came in. And the king said to him, What is to be done to the man whom the king has delight in honouring? Then the thought came into Haman's mind, Whom, more than myself, would the king have pleasure in honouring?

bbe@Esther:6:7 @And Haman, answering the king, said, For the man whom the king has delight in honouring,

bbe@Esther:6:8 @Let them take the robes which the king generally puts on, and the horse on which the king goes, and the crown which is on his head:

bbe@Esther:6:9 @And let the robes and the horse be given to one of the king's most noble captains, so that they may put them on the man whom the king has delight in honouring, and let him go on horseback through the streets of the town, with men crying out before him, So let it be done to the man whom the king has delight in honouring.

bbe@Esther:6:10 @Then the king said to Haman, Go quickly, and take the robes and the horse, as you have said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, who is seated at the king's doorway: see that you do everything as you have said.

bbe@Esther:6:11 @Then Haman took the robes and the horse, and dressing Mordecai in the robes, he made him go on horseback through the streets of the town, crying out before him, So let it be done to the man whom the king has delight in honouring.

bbe@Esther:6:12 @And Mordecai came back to the king's doorway. But Haman went quickly back to his house, sad and with his head covered.

bbe@Esther:6:13 @And Haman gave his wife Zeresh and all his friends an account of what had taken place. Then his wise men and his wife Zeresh said to him, If Mordecai, who is starting to get the better of you, is of the seed of the Jews, you will not be able to do anything against him, but you will certainly go down before him.

bbe@Esther:6:14 @While they were still talking, the king's servants came to take Haman to the feast which Esther had made ready

bbe@Esther:7:1 @So the king and Haman came to take wine with Esther the queen.

bbe@Esther:7:2 @And the king said to Esther again on the second day, while they were drinking, What is your prayer, Queen Esther? for it will be given to you; and what is your request? for it will be done, even to the half of my kingdom.

bbe@Esther:7:3 @Then Esther the queen, answering, said, If I have your approval, O king, and if it is the king's pleasure, let my life be given to me in answer to my prayer, and my people at my request:

bbe@Esther:7:4 @For we are given up, I and my people, to destruction and death and to be cut off. If we had been taken as men-servants and women-servants for a price, I would have said nothing, for our trouble is little in comparison with the king's loss.

bbe@Esther:7:5 @Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen, Who is he and where is he who has had this evil thought in his heart?

bbe@Esther:7:6 @And Esther said, Our hater and attacker is this evil Haman. Then Haman was full of fear before the king and the queen.

bbe@Esther:7:7 @And the king in his wrath got up from the feast and went into the garden: and Haman got to his feet to make a prayer for his life to Esther the queen: for he saw that the king's purpose was evil against him.

bbe@Esther:7:8 @Then the king came back from the garden into the room where they had been drinking; and Haman was stretched out on the seat where Esther was. Then the king said, Is he taking the queen by force before my eyes in my house? And while the words were on the king's lips, they put a cloth over Haman's face.

bbe@Esther:7:9 @Then Harbonah, one of the unsexed servants waiting before the king, said, See, the pillar fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai, who said a good word for the king, is still in its place in Haman's house. Then the king said, Put him to death by hanging him on it.

bbe@Esther:7:10 @So Haman was put to death by hanging him on the pillar he had made for Mordecai. Then the king's wrath became less.

bbe@Esther:8:1 @That day the king gave all the family of Haman, the hater of the Jews, to Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had made clear what he was to her.

bbe@Esther:8:2 @And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther put Mordecai over the family of Haman.

bbe@Esther:8:3 @Then Esther again came before the king, falling down at his feet, and made request to him with weeping, that he would put a stop to the evil purposes of Haman the Agagite and the designs which he had made against the Jews.

bbe@Esther:8:4 @Then the king put out the rod of gold to Esther, and she got up before the king.

bbe@Esther:8:5 @And she said, If it is the king's pleasure and if I have his approval and this thing seems right to the king and I am pleasing to him, then let letters be sent giving orders against those which Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, sent out for the destruction of the Jews in all divisions of the kingdom:

bbe@Esther:8:6 @For how is it possible for me to see the evil which is to overtake my nation? how may I see the destruction of my people?

bbe@Esther:8:7 @Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, See now, I have given Esther the family of Haman, and he has come to his death by hanging, because he made an attack on the Jews.

bbe@Esther:8:8 @So now send a letter about the Jews, writing whatever seems good to you, in the king's name, and stamping it with the king's ring: for a writing signed in the king's name and stamped with the king's ring may not be changed.

bbe@Esther:8:9 @Then at that time, on the twenty-third day of the third month, which is the month Sivan, the king's scribes were sent for; and everything ordered by Mordecai was put in writing and sent to the Jews and the captains and the rulers and the chiefs of all the divisions of the kingdom from India to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven divisions, to every division in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in their language, and to the Jews in their writing and their language.

bbe@Esther:8:10 @The letters were sent in the name of King Ahasuerus and stamped with his ring, and they were taken by men on horseback, going on the quick-running horses used for the king's business, the offspring of his best horses:

bbe@Esther:8:11 @In these letters the king gave authority to the Jews in every town to come together and make a fight for their lives, and to send death and destruction on the power of any people in any part of the kingdom attacking them or their children or their women, and to take their goods from them by force,

bbe@Esther:8:12 @On one day in every division of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, that is, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month Adar.

bbe@Esther:8:13 @A copy of the writing, to be made public as an order in every division of the kingdom, was given out to all the peoples, so that the Jews might be ready when that day came to give punishment to their haters.

bbe@Esther:8:14 @So the men went out on the quick-running horses used on the king's business, wasting no time and forced on by the king's order; and the order was given out in Shushan, the king's town.

bbe@Esther:8:15 @And Mordecai went out from before the king, dressed in king-like robes of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold and clothing of purple and the best linen: and all the town of Shushan gave loud cries of joy.

bbe@Esther:8:16 @And the Jews had light and joy and honour.

bbe@Esther:8:17 @And in every part of the kingdom and in every town, wherever the king's letter and his order came, the Jews were glad with great joy, and had a feast and a good day. And a great number of the people of the land became Jews: for the fear of the Jews had come on them.

bbe@Esther:9:1 @Now on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, when the time came for the king's order to be put into effect, on the very day when the haters of the Jews had been hoping to have rule over them; though the opposite had come about, and the Jews had rule over their haters;

bbe@Esther:9:2 @On that day, the Jews came together in their towns through all the divisions of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, for the purpose of attacking all those who were attempting evil against them: and everyone had to give way before them, for the fear of them had come on all the peoples.

bbe@Esther:9:3 @And all the chiefs and the captains and the rulers and those who did the king's business gave support to the Jews; because the fear of Mordecai had come on them.

bbe@Esther:9:4 @For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and word of him went out through every part of the kingdom: for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.

bbe@Esther:9:5 @So the Jews overcame all their attackers with the sword and with death and destruction, and did to their haters whatever they had a desire to do.

bbe@Esther:9:6 @And in Shushan the Jews put to death five hundred men.

bbe@Esther:9:7 @They put to death Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,

bbe@Esther:9:8 @Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,

bbe@Esther:9:9 @Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha,

bbe@Esther:9:10 @The ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the hater of the Jews; but they put not a hand on any of their goods.

bbe@Esther:9:11 @On that day the number of those who had been put to death in the town of Shushan was given to the king.

bbe@Esther:9:12 @And the king said to Esther the queen, The Jews have put five hundred men to death in Shushan, as well as the ten sons of Haman: what then have they done in the rest of the kingdom! Now what is your prayer? for it will be given to you; what other request have you? and it will be done.

bbe@Esther:9:13 @Then Esther said, If it is the king's pleasure, let authority be given to the Jews in Shushan to do tomorrow as has been done today, and let orders be given for the hanging of Haman's ten sons.

bbe@Esther:9:14 @And the king said that this was to be done, and the order was given out in Shushan, and the hanging of Haman's ten sons was effected.

bbe@Esther:9:15 @For the Jews who were in Shushan came together again on the fourteenth day of the month Adar and put to death three hundred men in Shushan; but they put not a hand on their goods.

bbe@Esther:9:16 @And the other Jews in every division of the kingdom came together, fighting for their lives, and got salvation from their haters and put seventy-five thousand of them to death; but they did not put a hand on their goods.

bbe@Esther:9:17 @This they did on the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of the same month they took their rest, and made it a day of feasting and joy.

bbe@Esther:9:18 @But the Jews in Shushan came together on the thirteenth and on the fourteenth day of the month; and on the fifteenth day they took their rest, and made it a day of feasting and joy.

bbe@Esther:9:19 @So the Jews of the country places living in unwalled towns make the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of feasting and joy and a good day, a day for sending offerings one to another.

bbe@Esther:9:20 @And Mordecai sent letters to all the Jews in every division of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, near and far,

bbe@Esther:9:21 @Ordering them to keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar and the fifteenth day of the same month, every year,

bbe@Esther:9:22 @As days on which the Jews had rest from their haters, and the month which for them was turned from sorrow to joy, and from weeping to a good day: and that they were to keep them as days of feasting and joy, of sending offerings to one another and good things to the poor.

bbe@Esther:9:23 @And the Jews gave their word to go on as they had been doing and as Mordecai had given them orders in writing;

bbe@Esther:9:24 @Because Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the hater of all the Jews, had made designs for their destruction, attempting to get a decision by Pur (that is, chance) with a view to putting an end to them and cutting them off;

bbe@Esther:9:25 @But when the business was put before the king, he gave orders by letters that the evil design which he had made against the Jews was to be turned against himself; and that he and his sons were to be put to death by hanging.

bbe@Esther:9:26 @So these days were named Purim, after the name of Pur. And so, because of the words of this letter, and of what they had seen in connection with this business, and what had come to them,

bbe@Esther:9:27 @The Jews made a rule and gave an undertaking, causing their seed and all those who were joined to them to do the same, so that it might be in force for ever, that they would keep those two days, as ordered in the letter, at the fixed time every year;

bbe@Esther:9:28 @And that those days were to be kept in memory through every generation and every family, in every division of the kingdom and every town, that there might never be a time when these days of Purim would not be kept among the Jews, or when the memory of them would go from the minds of their seed.

bbe@Esther:9:29 @Then Esther the queen, daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, sent a second letter giving the force of their authority to the order about the Purim.

bbe@Esther:9:30 @And he sent letters to all the Jews in the hundred and twenty-seven divisions of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with true words of peace,

bbe@Esther:9:31 @Giving the force of law to these days of Purim at their fixed times, as they had been ordered by Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen, and in keeping with the rules they had made for themselves and their seed, in connection with their time of going without food and their cry for help.

bbe@Esther:9:32 @The order given by Esther gave the force of law to the rules about the Purim; and it was recorded in the book.

bbe@Esther:10:1 @And King Ahasuerus put a tax on the land and on the islands of the sea.

bbe@Esther:10:2 @And all his acts of power and his great strength and the full story of the high place which the king gave Mordecai, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Media and Persia?

bbe@Esther:10:3 @For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and respected by the body of his countrymen; working for the good of his people, and saying words of peace to all his seed.

bbe@Job:1:1 @There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. He was without sin and upright, fearing God and keeping himself far from evil.

bbe@Job:1:4 @His sons regularly went to one another's houses, and every one on his day gave a feast: and at these times they sent for their three sisters to take part in their feasts with them.

bbe@Job:1:6 @And there was a day when the sons of the gods came together before the Lord, and the Satan came with them.

bbe@Job:1:7 @And the Lord said to the Satan, Where do you come from? And the Satan said in answer, From wandering this way and that on the earth, and walking about on it.

bbe@Job:1:8 @And the Lord said to the Satan, Have you taken note of my servant Job, for there is no one like him on the earth, a man without sin and upright, fearing God and keeping himself far from evil?

bbe@Job:1:13 @And there was a day when his sons and daughters were feasting in the house of their oldest brother,

bbe@Job:1:16 @And this one was still talking when another came, and said, The fire of God came down from heaven, burning up the sheep and the goats and the young men completely, and I was the only one who got away safe to give you the news.

bbe@Job:1:17 @And this one was still talking when another came, and said, The Chaldaeans made themselves into three bands, and came down on the camels and took them away, putting the young men to the sword, and I was the only one who got away safe to give you the news.

bbe@Job:1:18 @And this one was still talking when another came, and said, Your sons and your daughters were feasting together in their oldest brother's house,

bbe@Job:1:21 @With nothing I came out of my mother's body, and with nothing I will go back there; the Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; let the Lord's name be praised.

bbe@Job:2:1 @And there was a day when the sons of the gods came together before the Lord, and the Satan came with them.

bbe@Job:2:2 @And the Lord said to the Satan, Where do you come from? And the Satan said in answer, From wandering this way and that on the earth, and walking about on it.

bbe@Job:2:3 @And the Lord said to the Satan, Have you taken note of my servant Job, for there is no one like him on the earth, a man without sin and upright, fearing God and keeping himself far from evil? and he still keeps his righteousness, though you have been moving me to send destruction on him without cause.

bbe@Job:2:10 @And he said to her, You are talking like one of the foolish women. If we take the good God sends us, are we not to take the evil when it comes? In all this Job kept his lips from sin.

bbe@Job:2:11 @And Job's three friends had word of all this evil which had come on him. And they came every one from his place, Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. So they came together to a meeting-place, in order that they might go and make clear to Job their grief for him, and give him comfort.

bbe@Job:3:10 @Because it did not keep the doors of my mother's body shut, so that trouble might be veiled from my eyes

bbe@Job:3:11 @Why did death not take me when I came out of my mother's body, why did I not, when I came out, give up my last breath?

bbe@Job:3:17 @There the passions of the evil are over, and those whose strength has come to an end have rest.

bbe@Job:3:18 @There the prisoners are at peace together; the voice of the overseer comes not again to their ears.

bbe@Job:3:19 @The small and the great are there, and the servant is free from his master.

bbe@Job:4:3 @Truly, you have been a helper to others, and you have made feeble hands strong;

bbe@Job:4:16 @Something was present before me, but I was not able to see it clearly; there was a form before my eyes: a quiet voice came to my ears, saying:

bbe@Job:5:1 @Give now a cry for help; is there anyone who will give you an answer? and to which of the holy ones will you make your prayer?

bbe@Job:5:15 @But he keeps safe from their sword those who have no father, and the poor from the power of the strong.

bbe@Job:5:20 @When there is need of food he will keep you from death, and in war from the power of the sword.

bbe@Job:6:6 @Will a man take food which has no taste without salt? or is there any taste in the soft substance of purslain?

bbe@Job:6:25 @How pleasing are upright words! but what force is there in your arguments?

bbe@Job:6:30 @Is there evil in my tongue? is not the cause of my trouble clear to me?

bbe@Job:7:3 @So I have for my heritage months of pain to no purpose, and nights of weariness are given to me.

bbe@Job:7:13 @When I say, In my bed I will have comfort, there I will get rest from my disease;

bbe@Job:8:8 @Put the question now to the past generations, and give attention to what has been searched out by their fathers:

bbe@Job:8:12 @When it is still green, without being cut down, it becomes dry and dead before any other plant.

bbe@Job:8:15 @He is looking to his family for support, but it is not there; he puts his hope in it, but it comes to nothing.

bbe@Job:8:19 @Such is the joy of his way, and out of the dust another comes up to take his place.

bbe@Job:9:19 @If it is a question of strength, he says, Here I am! and if it is a question of a cause at law, he says, Who will give me a fixed day?

bbe@Job:9:22 @It is all the same to me; so I say, He puts an end to the sinner and to him who has done no wrong together.

bbe@Job:9:32 @For he is not a man as I am, that I might give him an answer, that we might come together before a judge.

bbe@Job:9:33 @There is no one to give a decision between us, who might have control over us.

bbe@Job:9:35 @Then I would say what is in my mind without fear of him; for there is no cause of fear in myself.

bbe@Job:10:7 @Though you see that I am not an evil-doer; and there is no one who is able to take a man out of your hands?

bbe@Job:10:11 @By you I was clothed with skin and flesh, and joined together with bones and muscles.

bbe@Job:10:16 @And that if there was cause for pride, you would go after me like a lion; and again put out your wonders against me:

bbe@Job:10:18 @Why then did you make me come out of my mother's body? It would have been better for me to have taken my last breath, and for no eye to have seen me,

bbe@Job:10:19 @And for me to have been as if I had not been; to have been taken from my mother's body straight to my last resting-place.

bbe@Job:10:21 @Before I go to the place from which I will not come back, to the land where all is dark and black,

bbe@Job:10:22 @A land of thick dark, without order, where the very light is dark.

bbe@Job:11:8 @They are higher than heaven; what is there for you to do? deeper than the underworld, and outside your knowledge;

bbe@Job:11:18 @And you will be safe because there is hope; after looking round, you will take your rest in quiet;

bbe@Job:12:5 @In the thought of him who is in comfort there is no respect for one who is in trouble; such is the fate of those whose feet are slipping.

bbe@Job:12:6 @There is wealth in the tents of those who make destruction, and those by whom God is moved to wrath are safe; even those whose god is their strength.

bbe@Job:12:13 @With him there is wisdom and strength; power and knowledge are his

bbe@Job:12:14 @Truly, there is no building up of what is pulled down by him; when a man is shut up by him, no one may let him loose.

bbe@Job:12:16 @With him are strength and wise designs; he who is guided into error, together with his guide, are in his hands;

bbe@Job:12:24 @He takes away the wisdom of the rulers of the earth, and sends them wandering in a waste where there is no way.

bbe@Job:14:7 @For there is hope of a tree; if it is cut down, it will come to life again, and its branches will not come to an end.

bbe@Job:14:10 @But man comes to his death and is gone: he gives up his spirit, and where is he?

bbe@Job:15:9 @What knowledge have you which we have not? is there anything in your mind which is not in ours?

bbe@Job:15:10 @With us are men who are grey-haired and full of years, much older than your father.

bbe@Job:15:18 @(The things which wise men have got from their fathers, and have not kept secret from us;

bbe@Job:15:23 @He is wandering about in search of bread, saying, Where is it? and he is certain that the day of trouble is ready for him:

bbe@Job:15:28 @And he has made his resting-place in the towns which have been pulled down, in houses where no man had a right to be, whose fate was to become masses of broken walls.

bbe@Job:16:4 @It would not be hard for me to say such things if your souls were in my soul's place; joining words together against you, and shaking my head at you:

bbe@Job:16:10 @Their mouths are open wide against me; the blows of his bitter words are falling on my face; all of them come together in a mass against me.

bbe@Job:17:3 @Be pleased, now, to be responsible for me to yourself; for there is no other who will put his hand in mine.

bbe@Job:17:14 @If I say to the earth, You are my father; and to the worm, My mother and my sister;

bbe@Job:17:15 @Where then is my hope? and who will see my desire?

bbe@Job:17:16 @Will they go down with me into the underworld? Will we go down together into the dust?

bbe@Job:18:14 @He is pulled out of his tent where he was safe, and he is taken away to the king of fears.

bbe@Job:18:17 @His memory is gone from the earth, and in the open country there is no knowledge of his name.

bbe@Job:18:19 @He has no offspring or family among his people, and in his living-place there is no one of his name.

bbe@Job:19:7 @Truly, I make an outcry against the violent man, but there is no answer: I give a cry for help, but no one takes up my cause.

bbe@Job:19:12 @His armies come on together, they make their road high against me, and put up their tents round mine.

bbe@Job:19:13 @He has taken my brothers far away from me; they have seen my fate and have become strange to me.

bbe@Job:19:15 @I am strange to my women-servants, and seem to them as one from another country.

bbe@Job:19:17 @My breath is strange to my wife, and I am disgusting to the offspring of my mother's body.

bbe@Job:19:29 @Be in fear of the sword, for the sword is the punishment for such things, so that you may be certain that there is a judge.

bbe@Job:20:7 @Like the waste from his body he comes to an end for ever: those who have seen him say, Where is he?

bbe@Job:20:20 @There is no peace for him in his wealth, and no salvation for him in those things in which he took delight.

bbe@Job:20:28 @The produce of his house is taken away into another country, like things given into the hands of others in the day of wrath.

bbe@Job:20:29 @This is the reward of the evil man, and the heritage given to him by God.

bbe@Job:21:10 @Their ox is ready at all times to give seed; their cow gives birth, without dropping her young.

bbe@Job:21:24 @His buckets are full of milk, and there is no loss of strength in his bones.

bbe@Job:21:25 @And another comes to his end with a bitter soul, without ever tasting good.

bbe@Job:21:26 @Together they go down to the dust, and are covered by the worm.

bbe@Job:21:28 @For you say, Where is the house of the ruler, and where is the tent of the evil-doer?

bbe@Job:21:33 @The earth of the valley covering his bones is sweet to him, and all men come after him, as there were unnumbered before him.

bbe@Job:21:34 @Why then do you give me comfort with words in which there is no profit, when you see that there is nothing in your answers but deceit?

bbe@Job:22:5 @Is not your evil-doing great? and there is no end to your sins.

bbe@Job:22:6 @For you have taken your brother's goods when he was not in your debt, and have taken away the clothing of those who have need of it.

bbe@Job:22:9 @You have sent widows away without hearing their cause, and you have taken away the support of the child who has no father.

bbe@Job:23:3 @If only I had knowledge of where he might be seen, so that I might come even to his seat!

bbe@Job:23:7 @There an upright man might put his cause before him; and I would be free for ever from my judge.

bbe@Job:23:8 @See, I go forward, but he is not there; and back, but I do not see him;

bbe@Job:23:9 @I am looking for him on the left hand, but there is no sign of him; and turning to the right, I am not able to see him.

bbe@Job:23:11 @My feet have gone in his steps; I have kept in his way, without turning to one side or to the other.

bbe@Job:23:13 @But his purpose is fixed and there is no changing it; and he gives effect to the desire of his soul.

bbe@Job:24:2 @The landmarks are changed by evil men, they violently take away flocks, together with their keepers.

bbe@Job:24:3 @They send away the ass of him who has no father, they take the widow's ox for debt.

bbe@Job:24:4 @The crushed are turned out of the way; all the poor of the earth go into a secret place together.

bbe@Job:24:9 @The child without a father is forced from its mother's breast, and they take the young children of the poor for debt.

bbe@Job:24:10 @Others go about without clothing, and though they have no food, they get in the grain from the fields.

bbe@Job:24:13 @Then there are those who are haters of the light, who have no knowledge of its ways, and do not go in them.

bbe@Job:24:15 @And the man whose desire is for the wife of another is waiting for the evening, saying, No eye will see me; and he puts a cover on his face. And in the night the thief goes about;

bbe@Job:24:18 @They go quickly on the face of the waters; their heritage is cursed in the earth; the steps of the crusher of grapes are not turned to their vine-garden.

bbe@Job:24:21 @He is not kind to the widow, and he has no pity for her child.

bbe@Job:27:4 @Truly, there is no deceit in my lips, and my tongue does not say what is false.

bbe@Job:27:13 @This is the punishment of the evil-doer from God, and the heritage given to the cruel by the Ruler of all

bbe@Job:27:16 @Though he may get silver together like dust, and make ready great stores of clothing;

bbe@Job:27:17 @He may get them ready, but the upright will put them on, and he who is free from sin will take the silver for a heritage.

bbe@Job:27:19 @He goes to rest full of wealth, but does so for the last time: on opening his eyes, he sees it there no longer.

bbe@Job:28:1 @Truly there is a mine for silver, and a place where gold is washed out.

bbe@Job:28:12 @But where may wisdom be seen? and where is the resting-place of knowledge?

bbe@Job:28:18 @There is no need to say anything about coral or crystal; and the value of wisdom is greater than that of pearls.

bbe@Job:28:20 @From where then does wisdom come, and where is the resting-place of knowledge?

bbe@Job:29:12 @For I was a saviour to the poor when he was crying for help, to the child with no father, and to him who had no supporter.

bbe@Job:29:16 @I was a father to the poor, searching out the cause of him who was strange to me.

bbe@Job:30:1 @But now those who are younger than I make sport of me; those whose fathers I would not have put with the dogs of my flocks.

bbe@Job:30:7 @They make noises like asses among the brushwood; they get together under the thorns.

bbe@Job:30:17 @The flesh is gone from my bones, and they give me no rest; there is no end to my pains.

bbe@Job:30:29 @I have become a brother to the jackals, and go about in the company of ostriches.

bbe@Job:31:2 @For what is God's reward from on high, or the heritage given by the Ruler of all from heaven?

bbe@Job:31:7 @If my steps have been turned out of the way, or if my heart went after my eyes, or if the property of another is in my hands;

bbe@Job:31:8 @Let me put seed in the earth for another to have the fruit of it, and let my produce be uprooted.

bbe@Job:31:9 @If my heart went after another man's wife, or if I was waiting secretly at my neighbour's door;

bbe@Job:31:10 @Then let my wife give pleasure to another man and let others make use of her body.

bbe@Job:31:15 @Did not God make him as well as me? did he not give us life in our mothers' bodies?

bbe@Job:31:17 @If I kept my food for myself, and did not give some of it to the child with no father;

bbe@Job:31:18 @(For I was cared for by God as by a father from my earliest days; he was my guide from the body of my mother;)

bbe@Job:31:25 @If I was glad because my wealth was great, and because my hand had got together a great store;

bbe@Job:31:28 @That would have been another sin to be rewarded with punishment by the judges; for I would have been false to God on high.

bbe@Job:32:5 @And when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men, he was very angry.

bbe@Job:32:13 @Take care that you do not say, Wisdom is here; God may overcome him, but not man.

bbe@Job:33:9 @I am clean, without sin; I am washed, and there is no evil in me:

bbe@Job:33:19 @Pain is sent on him as a punishment, while he is on his bed; there is no end to the trouble in his bones;

bbe@Job:33:23 @If now there may be an angel sent to him, one of the thousands which there are to be between him and God, and to make clear to man what is right for him;

bbe@Job:34:15 @All flesh would come to an end together, and man would go back to the dust.

bbe@Job:34:22 @There is no dark place, and no thick cloud, in which the workers of evil may take cover.

bbe@Job:34:24 @He sends the strong to destruction without searching out their cause, and puts others in their place.

bbe@Job:35:5 @Let your eyes be turned to the heavens, and lifted up to see the skies; they are higher than you.

bbe@Job:35:10 @But no one has said, Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night;

bbe@Job:35:12 @There they are crying out because of the pride of the evil-doers, but he gives them no answer.

bbe@Job:37:23 @There is no searching out of the Ruler of all: his strength and his judging are great; he is full of righteousness, doing no wrong.

bbe@Job:38:3 @Get your strength together like a man of war; I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.

bbe@Job:38:4 @Where were you when I put the earth on its base? Say, if you have knowledge.

bbe@Job:38:7 @When the morning stars made songs together, and all the sons of the gods gave cries of joy?

bbe@Job:38:8 @Or where were you when the sea came to birth, pushing out from its secret place;

bbe@Job:38:11 @And said, So far you may come, and no farther; and here the pride of your waves will be stopped?

bbe@Job:38:19 @Which is the way to the resting-place of the light, and where is the store-house of the dark;

bbe@Job:38:24 @Which is the way to the place where the wind is measured out, and the east wind sent out over the earth?

bbe@Job:38:26 @Causing rain to come on a land where no man is living, on the waste land which has no people;

bbe@Job:38:27 @To give water to the land where there is waste and destruction, and to make the dry land green with young grass?

bbe@Job:38:28 @Has the rain a father? or who gave birth to the drops of night mist?

bbe@Job:38:30 @The waters are joined together, hard as a stone, and the face of the deep is covered.

bbe@Job:38:35 @Do you send out the thunder-flames, so that they may go, and say to you, Here we are?

bbe@Job:38:38 @When the earth becomes hard as metal, and is joined together in masses?

bbe@Job:39:6 @To whom I have given the waste land for a heritage, and the salt land as a living-place.

bbe@Job:39:13 @Is the wing of the ostrich feeble, or is it because she has no feathers,

bbe@Job:39:14 @That she puts her eggs on the earth, warming them in the dust,

bbe@Job:39:16 @She is cruel to her young ones, as if they were not hers; her work is to no purpose; she has no fear.

bbe@Job:39:17 @For God has taken wisdom from her mind, and given her no measure of knowledge.

bbe@Job:39:18 @When she is shaking her wings on high, she makes sport of the horse and of him who is seated on him.

bbe@Job:39:29 @From there he is watching for food; his eye sees it far off.

bbe@Job:39:30 @His young have blood for their drink, and where the dead bodies are, there is he to be seen.

bbe@Job:40:6 @Get your strength together like a man of war: I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.

bbe@Job:40:12 @Let them be covered together in the dust; let their faces be dark in the secret place of the underworld.

bbe@Job:40:16 @His tail is curving like a cedar; the muscles of his legs are joined together.

bbe@Job:40:19 @He takes the produce of the mountains, where all the beasts of the field are at play.

bbe@Job:41:6 @Will the fishermen make profit out of him? will they have him cut up for the traders?

bbe@Job:41:11 @Who ever went against me, and got the better of me? There is no one under heaven!

bbe@Job:41:15 @His back is made of lines of plates, joined tight together, one against the other, like a stamp.

bbe@Job:41:16 @One is so near to the other that no air may come between them.

bbe@Job:41:17 @They take a grip of one another; they are joined together, so that they may not be parted.

bbe@Job:41:23 @The plates of his flesh are joined together, fixed, and not to be moved.

bbe@Job:41:33 @On earth there is not another like him, who is made without fear.

bbe@Job:42:11 @And all his brothers and sisters, and his friends of earlier days, came and took food with him in his house; and made clear their grief for him, and gave him comfort for all the evil which the Lord had sent on him; and they all gave him a bit of money and a gold ring.

bbe@Proverbs:2:4 @If you are looking for her as for silver, and searching for her as for stored-up wealth;

bbe@Proverbs:2:7 @He has salvation stored up for the upright, he is a breastplate to those in whom there is no evil;

bbe@Proverbs:2:17 @Who is false to the husband of her early years, and does not keep the agreement of her God in mind:

bbe@Proverbs:2:18 @For her house is on the way down to death; her footsteps go down to the shades:

bbe@Proverbs:5:3 @For honey is dropping from the lips of the strange woman, and her mouth is smoother than oil;

bbe@Proverbs:5:4 @But her end is bitter as wormwood, and sharp as a two-edged sword;

bbe@Proverbs:5:5 @Her feet go down to death, and her steps to the underworld;

bbe@Proverbs:6:1 @My son, if you have made yourself responsible for your neighbour, or given your word for another,

bbe@Proverbs:6:5 @Make yourself free, like the roe from the hand of the archer, and the bird from him who puts a net for her.

bbe@Proverbs:6:6 @Go to the ant, you hater of work; give thought to her ways and be wise:

bbe@Proverbs:6:19 @A false witness, breathing out untrue words, and one who lets loose violent acts among brothers.

bbe@Proverbs:6:20 @My son, keep the rule of your father, and have in memory the teaching of your mother:

bbe@Proverbs:6:25 @Let not your heart's desire go after her fair body; let not her eyes take you prisoner.

bbe@Proverbs:6:26 @For a loose woman is looking for a cake of bread, but another man's wife goes after one's very life.

bbe@Proverbs:6:32 @He who takes another man's wife is without all sense: he who does it is the cause of destruction to his soul.

bbe@Proverbs:7:5 @So that they may keep you from the strange woman, even from her whose words are smooth.

bbe@Proverbs:7:8 @Walking in the street near the turn of her road, going on the way to her house,

bbe@Proverbs:7:22 @The simple man goes after her, like an ox going to its death, like a roe pulled by a cord;

bbe@Proverbs:7:25 @Let not your heart be turned to her ways, do not go wandering in her footsteps.

bbe@Proverbs:7:26 @For those wounded and made low by her are great in number; and all those who have come to their death through her are a great army.

bbe@Proverbs:7:27 @Her house is the way to the underworld, going down to the rooms of death.

bbe@Proverbs:8:2 @At the top of the highways, at the meeting of the roads, she takes her place;

bbe@Proverbs:8:3 @Where the roads go into the town her cry goes out, at the doorways her voice is loud:

bbe@Proverbs:8:8 @All the words of my mouth are righteousness; there is nothing false or twisted in them.

bbe@Proverbs:8:11 @For wisdom is better than jewels, and all things which may be desired are nothing in comparison with her.

bbe@Proverbs:8:21 @So that I may give my lovers wealth for their heritage, making their store-houses full.

bbe@Proverbs:8:24 @When there was no deep I was given birth, when there were no fountains flowing with water.

bbe@Proverbs:8:27 @When he made ready the heavens I was there: when he put an arch over the face of the deep:

bbe@Proverbs:9:1 @Wisdom has made her house, putting up her seven pillars.

bbe@Proverbs:9:2 @She has put her fat beasts to death; her wine is mixed, her table is ready.

bbe@Proverbs:9:3 @She has sent out her women-servants; her voice goes out to the highest places of the town, saying,

bbe@Proverbs:9:4 @Whoever is simple, let him come in here; and to him who has no sense, she says:

bbe@Proverbs:9:14 @Seated at the door of her house, in the high places of the town,

bbe@Proverbs:9:16 @Whoever is simple, let him come in here: and to him who is without sense, she says:

bbe@Proverbs:9:18 @But he does not see that the dead are there, that her guests are in the deep places of the underworld.

bbe@Proverbs:10:1 @A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish son is a sorrow to his mother.

bbe@Proverbs:31:12 @She does him good and not evil all the days of her life.

bbe@Proverbs:31:13 @She gets wool and linen, working at the business of her hands.

bbe@Proverbs:31:15 @She gets up while it is still night, and gives meat to her family, and their food to her servant-girls.

bbe@Proverbs:31:16 @After looking at a field with care, she gets it for a price, planting a vine-garden with the profit of her work.

bbe@Proverbs:31:17 @She puts a band of strength round her, and makes her arms strong.

bbe@Proverbs:31:18 @She sees that her marketing is of profit to her: her light does not go out by night.

bbe@Proverbs:31:19 @She puts her hands to the cloth-working rod, and her fingers take the wheel.

bbe@Proverbs:31:20 @Her hands are stretched out to the poor; yes, she is open-handed to those who are in need.

bbe@Proverbs:31:26 @Her mouth is open to give out wisdom, and the law of mercy is on her tongue.

bbe@Proverbs:31:27 @She gives attention to the ways of her family, she does not take her food without working for it.

bbe@Proverbs:31:31 @Give her credit for what her hands have made: let her be praised by her works in the public place.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:1 @The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:2 @All is to no purpose, said the Preacher, all the ways of man are to no purpose.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:4 @One generation goes and another comes; but the earth is for ever.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:5 @The sun comes up and the sun goes down, and goes quickly back to the place where he came up.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:7 @All the rivers go down to the sea, but the sea is not full; to the place where the rivers go, there they go again.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:9 @That which has been, is that which is to be, and that which has been done, is that which will be done, and there is no new thing under the sun.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:10 @Is there anything of which men say, See, this is new? It has been in the old time which was before us.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:11 @There is no memory of those who have gone before, and of those who come after there will be no memory for those who are still to come after them.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:12 @I, the Preacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:1:15 @That which is bent may not be made straight, and that which is not there may not be numbered.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:7 @I got men-servants and women-servants, and they gave birth to sons and daughters in my house. I had great wealth of herds and flocks, more than all who were in Jerusalem before me.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:8 @I got together silver and gold and the wealth of kings and of countries. I got makers of song, male and female; and the delights of the sons of men--girls of all sorts to be my brides.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:11 @Then I saw all the works which my hands had made, and everything I had been working to do; and I saw that all was to no purpose and desire for wind, and there was no profit under the sun.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @Of the wise man, as of the foolish man, there is no memory for ever, seeing that those who now are will have gone from memory in the days to come. See how death comes to the wise as to the foolish!

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @Because there is a man whose work has been done with wisdom, with knowledge, and with an expert hand; but one who has done nothing for it will have it for his heritage. This again is to no purpose and a great evil.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:24 @There is nothing better for a man than taking meat and drink, and having delight in his work. This again I saw was from the hand of God.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:2:26 @To the man with whom he is pleased, God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy; but to the sinner he gives the work of getting goods together and storing up wealth, to give to him in whom God has pleasure. This again is to no purpose and desire for wind.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:3:1 @For everything there is a fixed time, and a time for every business under the sun.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:3:5 @A time to take stones away and a time to get stones together; a time for kissing and a time to keep from kissing;

bbe@Ecclesiastes:3:12 @I am certain that there is nothing better for a man than to be glad, and to do good while life is in him.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:3:16 @And again, I saw under the sun, in the place of the judges, that evil was there; and in the place of righteousness, that evil was there.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:3:19 @Because the fate of the sons of men and the fate of the beasts is the same. As is the death of one so is the death of the other, and all have one spirit. Man is not higher than the beasts; because all is to no purpose.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @So I saw that there is nothing better than for a man to have joy in his work--because that is his reward. Who will make him see what will come after him?

bbe@Ecclesiastes:4:1 @And again I saw all the cruel things which are done under the sun; there was the weeping of those who have evil done to them, and they had no comforter: and from the hands of the evil-doers there went out power, but they had no comforter.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @It is one who is by himself, without a second, and without son or brother; but there is no end to all his work, and he has never enough of wealth. For whom, then, am I working and keeping myself from pleasure? This again is to no purpose, and a bitter work.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:4:10 @And if one has a fall, the other will give him a hand; but unhappy is the man who is by himself, because he has no helper

bbe@Ecclesiastes:4:11 @So again, if two are sleeping together they are warm, but how may one be warm by himself?

bbe@Ecclesiastes:4:12 @And two attacked by one would be safe, and three cords twisted together are not quickly broken.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:4:13 @A young man who is poor and wise is better than a king who is old and foolish and will not be guided by the wisdom of others.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @There was no end of all the people, of all those whose head he was, but they who come later will have no delight in him. This again is to no purpose and desire for wind.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:5:8 @If you see the poor under a cruel yoke, and law and right being violently overturned in a country, be not surprised, because one authority is keeping watch on another and there are higher than they.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:5:9 @It is good generally for a country where the land is worked to have a king.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:5:13 @There is a great evil which I have seen under the sun--wealth kept by the owner to be his downfall.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:5:14 @And I saw the destruction of his wealth by an evil chance; and when he became the father of a son he had nothing in his hand.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:5:15 @As he came from his mother at birth, so does he go again; he gets from his work no reward which he may take away in his hand.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is hard on men;

bbe@Ecclesiastes:6:5 @Yes, it saw not the sun, and it had no knowledge; it is better with this than with the other.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @That which is, has been named before, and of what man is there is knowledge. He has no power against one stronger than he.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:6:11 @There are words without number for increasing what is to no purpose, but what is man profited by them?

bbe@Ecclesiastes:7:11 @Wisdom together with a heritage is good, and a profit to those who see the sun.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @In the day of wealth have joy, but in the day of evil take thought: God has put the one against the other, so that man may not be certain what will be after him.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:7:20 @There is no man on earth of such righteousness that he does good and is free from sin all his days.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @Your heart has knowledge how frequently others have been cursed by you.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:7:26 @And I saw a thing more bitter than death, even the woman whose heart is full of tricks and nets, and whose hands are as bands. He with whom God is pleased will get free from her, but the sinner will be taken by her.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:7:27 @Look! this I have seen, said the Preacher, taking one thing after another to get the true account,

bbe@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @For every purpose there is a time and a decision, because the sorrow of man is great in him.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @All this have I seen, and have given my heart to all the work which is done under the sun: there is a time when man has power over man for his destruction.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @There is a thing which is to no purpose done on the earth: that there are good men to whom is given the same punishment as those who are evil, and there are evil men who get the reward of the good. I say that this again is to no purpose.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @So I gave praise to joy, because there is nothing better for a man to do under the sun than to take meat and drink and be happy; for that will be with him in his work all the days of his life which God gives him under the sun.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @When I gave my mind to the knowledge of wisdom and to seeing the business which is done on the earth (and there are those whose eyes see not sleep by day or by night),

bbe@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @Because to all there is one event, to the upright man and to the evil, to the clean and to the unclean, to him who makes an offering and to him who makes no offering; as is the good so is the sinner; he who takes an oath is as he who has fear of it.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @This is evil in all things which are done under the sun: that there is one fate for all, and the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil; while they have life their hearts are foolish, and after that--to the dead.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:9:4 @For him who is joined to all the living there is hope; a living dog is better than a dead lion.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:9:5 @The living are conscious that death will come to them, but the dead are not conscious of anything, and they no longer have a reward, because there is no memory of them.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:9:10 @Whatever comes to your hand to do with all your power, do it because there is no work, or thought, or knowledge, or wisdom in the place of the dead to which you are going.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @And again I saw under the sun that the reward goes not to him who is quick, or the fruits of war to the strong; and there is no bread for the wise, or wealth for men of learning, or respect for those who have knowledge; but time and chance come to all.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:9:14 @There was a little town and the number of its men was small, and there came a great king against it and made an attack on it, building works of war round about it.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:9:15 @Now there was in the town a poor, wise man, and he, by his wisdom, kept the town safe. But no one had any memory of that same poor man.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, like an error which comes by chance from a ruler:

bbe@Ecclesiastes:10:8 @He who makes a hole for others will himself go into it, and for him who makes a hole through a wall the bite of a snake will be a punishment.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @He who gets out stones from the earth will be damaged by them, and in the cutting of wood there is danger

bbe@Ecclesiastes:10:11 @If a snake gives a bite before the word of power is said, then there is no longer any use in the word of power.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:10:19 @A feast is for laughing, and wine makes glad the heart; but by the one and the other money is wasted.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:11:3 @If the clouds are full of rain, they send it down on the earth; and if a tree comes down to the south, or the north, in whatever place it comes down, there it will be.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:11:5 @As you have no knowledge of the way of the wind, or of the growth of the bones in the body of her who is with child, even so you have no knowledge of the works of God who has made all.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:12:8 @All things are to no purpose, says the Preacher, all is to no purpose.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:12:9 @And because the Preacher was wise he still gave the people knowledge; searching out, testing, and putting in order a great number of wise sayings.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:12:10 @The Preacher made search for words which were pleasing, but his writing was in words upright and true.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:12:11 @The words of the wise are pointed, and sayings grouped together are like nails fixed with a hammer; they are given by one guide.

bbe@Ecclesiastes:12:12 @And further, my son, take note of this: of the making of books there is no end, and much learning is a weariness to the flesh.

bbe@Songs:1:6 @Let not your eyes be turned on me, because I am dark, because I was looked on by the sun; my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vine-gardens; but my vine-garden I have not kept.

bbe@Songs:1:7 @Say, O love of my soul, where you give food to your flock, and where you make them take their rest in the heat of the day; why have I to be as one wandering by the flocks of your friends?

bbe@Songs:2:9 @My loved one is like a roe; see, he is on the other side of our wall, he is looking in at the windows, letting himself be seen through the spaces.

bbe@Songs:2:13 @The fig-tree puts out her green fruit and the vines with their young fruit give a good smell. Get up from your bed, my beautiful one, and come away.

bbe@Songs:2:17 @Till the evening comes, and the sky slowly becomes dark, come, my loved one, and be like a roe on the mountains of Bether.

bbe@Songs:3:4 @I was but a little way from them, when I came face to face with him who is the love of my soul. I took him by the hands, and did not let him go, till I had taken him into my mother's house, and into the room of her who gave me birth.

bbe@Songs:3:11 @Go out, O daughters of Jerusalem, and see King Solomon, with the crown which his mother put on his head on the day when he was married, and on the day of the joy of his heart.

bbe@Songs:4:2 @Your teeth are like a flock of sheep whose wool is newly cut, which come up from the washing; every one has two lambs, and there is not one without young.

bbe@Songs:4:7 @You are all fair, my love; there is no mark on you.

bbe@Songs:4:8 @Come with me from Lebanon, my bride, with me from Lebanon; see from the top of Amana, from the top of Senir and Hermon, from the places of the lions, from the mountains of the leopards.

bbe@Songs:5:9 @What is your loved one more than another, O fairest among women? What is your loved one more than another, that you say this to us?

bbe@Songs:6:1 @Where is your loved one gone, O most fair among women? Where is your loved one turned away, that we may go looking for him with you?

bbe@Songs:6:6 @Your teeth are like a flock of sheep which come up from the washing; every one has two lambs, and there is not one without young.

bbe@Songs:6:8 @There are sixty queens, and eighty servant-wives, and young girls without number.

bbe@Songs:6:9 @My dove, my very beautiful one, is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the dearest one of her who gave her birth. The daughters saw her, and gave her a blessing; yes, the queens and the servant-wives, and they gave her praises.

bbe@Songs:7:12 @Let us go out early to the vine-gardens; let us see if the vine is in bud, if it has put out its young fruit, and the pomegranate is in flower. There I will give you my love.

bbe@Songs:8:1 @Oh that you were my brother, who took milk from my mother's breasts! When I came to you in the street, I would give you kisses; yes, I would not be looked down on.

bbe@Songs:8:2 @I would take you by the hand into my mother's house, and she would be my teacher. I would give you drink of spiced wine, drink of the pomegranate.

bbe@Songs:8:5 @Who is this, who comes up from the waste places, resting on her loved one? It was I who made you awake under the apple-tree, where your mother gave you birth; there she was in pain at your birth.

bbe@Songs:8:9 @If she is a wall, we will make on her a strong base of silver; and if she is a door, we will let her be shut up with cedar-wood.

bbe@Isaiah:1:3 @Even the ox has knowledge of its owner, and the ass of the place where its master puts its food: but Israel has no knowledge, my people give no thought to me.

bbe@Isaiah:1:16 @Be washed, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; let there be an end of sinning;

bbe@Isaiah:1:17 @Take pleasure in well-doing; let your ways be upright, keep down the cruel, give a right decision for the child who has no father, see to the cause of the widow.

bbe@Isaiah:1:18 @Come now, and let us have an argument together, says the Lord: how may your sins which are red like blood be white as snow? how may their dark purple seem like wool?

bbe@Isaiah:1:21 @The upright town has become untrue; there was a time when her judges gave right decisions, when righteousness had a resting-place in her, but now she is full of those who take men's lives.

bbe@Isaiah:1:23 @Your chiefs have gone against the Lord, they have become friends of thieves; every one of them is looking for profit and going after rewards; they do not give right decisions for the child who has no father, and they do not let the cause of the widow come before them.

bbe@Isaiah:1:27 @Upright acts will be the price of Zion's forgiveness, and by righteousness will men be living there.

bbe@Isaiah:1:28 @But a common destruction will overtake sinners and evil-doers together, and those who have gone away from the Lord will be cut off.

bbe@Isaiah:1:31 @And the strong will be as food for the fire, and his work as a flame; and they will be burned together, with no one to put out the fire.

bbe@Isaiah:2:4 @And he will be the judge between the nations, and the peoples will be ruled by his decisions: and their swords will be turned into plough-blades, and their spears into vine-knives: no longer will the nations be turning their swords against one another, and the knowledge of war will be gone for ever.

bbe@Isaiah:2:7 @And their land is full of silver and gold, and there is no end to their stores; their land is full of horses, and there is no end to their carriages.

bbe@Isaiah:2:9 @And the poor man's head is bent, and the great man goes down on his face: for this cause there will be no forgiveness for their sin.

bbe@Isaiah:3:6 @When one man puts his hand on another in his father's house, and says, You have clothing, be our ruler and be responsible for us in our sad condition:

bbe@Isaiah:3:7 @Then he will say with an oath, I will not be a helper, for in my house there is no bread or clothing: I will not let you make me a ruler of the people.

bbe@Isaiah:3:24 @And in the place of sweet spices will be an evil smell, and for a fair band a thick cord; for a well-dressed head there will be the cutting-off of the hair, and for a beautiful robe there will be the clothing of sorrow; the mark of the prisoner in place of the ornaments of the free.

bbe@Isaiah:3:26 @And in the public places of her towns will be sorrow and weeping; and she will be seated on the earth, waste and uncovered.

bbe@Isaiah:4:1 @And in that day seven women will put their hands on one man, saying, There will be no need for you to give us food or clothing, only let us go under your name, so that our shame may be taken away.

bbe@Isaiah:4:4 @When Zion has been washed from her sin by the Lord, and Jerusalem made clean from her blood by a judging and a burning wind.

bbe@Isaiah:4:5 @And over every living-place on Mount Zion, all over all her meetings, the Lord will make a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night, for over all, the glory of the Lord will be a cover and a tent;

bbe@Isaiah:5:4 @Is there anything which might have been done for my vine-garden which I have not done? why then, when I was hoping for the best grapes did it give me common grapes?

bbe@Isaiah:5:7 @For the vine-garden of the Lord of armies is the people of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of his delight: and he was looking for upright judging, and there was blood; for righteousness, and there was a cry for help.

bbe@Isaiah:5:8 @Cursed are those who are joining house to house, and putting field to field, till there is no more living-space for any but themselves in all the land!

bbe@Isaiah:5:14 @For this cause the underworld has made wide its throat, opening its mouth without limit: and her glory, and the noise of her masses, and her loud-voiced feasters, will go down into it.

bbe@Isaiah:5:27 @There is no weariness among them, and no man is feeble-footed: they come without resting or sleeping, and the cord of their shoes is not broken.

bbe@Isaiah:5:29 @The sound of their armies will be like the voice of a lion, and their war-cry like the noise of young lions: with loud cries they will come down on their food and will take it away safely, and there will be no one to take it out of their hands.

bbe@Isaiah:6:3 @And one said in a loud voice to another, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of armies: all the earth is full of his glory.

bbe@Isaiah:6:8 @And the voice of the Lord came to my ears, saying, Whom am I to send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Here am I, send me.

bbe@Isaiah:6:12 @And the Lord has taken men far away, and there are wide waste places in the land.

bbe@Isaiah:6:13 @And even if there is still a tenth part in it, it will again be burned, like a tree of the woods whose broken end is still in the earth after the tree has been cut down (the holy seed is the broken end).

bbe@Isaiah:7:3 @Then the Lord said to Isaiah, Go out now, you and Shear-jashub, your son, and you will come across Ahaz at the end of the stream flowing from the higher pool, in the highway of the washerman's field;

bbe@Isaiah:7:6 @Let us go up against Judah, troubling her, and forcing our way into her, and let us put up a king in her, even the son of Tabeel:

bbe@Isaiah:7:17 @The Lord is about to send on you, and on your people, and on your father's house, such a time of trouble as there has not been from the days of the separating of Ephraim from Judah; even the coming of the king of Assyria.

bbe@Isaiah:7:20 @In that day will the Lord take away the hair of the head and of the feet, as well as the hair of the face, with a blade got for a price from the other side of the River; even with the king of Assyria.

bbe@Isaiah:7:23 @And it will be in that day that in every place where before there were a thousand vines valued at a thousand shekels of silver, there will be nothing but blackberries and thorns.

bbe@Isaiah:7:24 @Men will come there with bows and arrows, because all the land will be full of blackberries and thorns.

bbe@Isaiah:8:1 @And the Lord said to me, Take a great writing-board, and on it put down in common letters, Maher-shalal-hash-baz;

bbe@Isaiah:8:3 @And I went in to my wife, and she became with child, and gave birth to a son. Then the Lord said to me, Give him the name Maher-shalal-hash-baz,

bbe@Isaiah:8:4 @For before the child is able to say, Father, or, Mother, the wealth of Damascus and the goods of Samaria will be taken away by the king of Assyria.

bbe@Isaiah:8:20 @Then say to them, Put your faith in the teaching and the witness.... If they do not say such things.... For him there is no dawn....

bbe@Isaiah:8:22 @And he will be looking down on the earth, and there will be trouble and dark clouds, black night where there is no seeing.

bbe@Isaiah:9:1 @In earlier times he made the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali of small value, but after that he gave it glory, by the way of the sea, on the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the nations.

bbe@Isaiah:9:6 @For to us a child has come, to us a son is given; and the government has been placed in his hands; and he has been named Wise Guide, Strong God, Father for ever, Prince of Peace.

bbe@Isaiah:9:7 @Of the increase of his rule and of peace there will be no end, on the seat of David, and in his kingdom; to make it strong, supporting it with wise decision and righteousness, now and for ever. By the fixed purpose of the Lord of armies this will be done.

bbe@Isaiah:9:17 @For this cause the Lord will have no pleasure in their young men, and no pity on their widows and the children without fathers: for they are all haters of God and evil-doers, and foolish words come from every mouth. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

bbe@Isaiah:9:20 @On the right a man was cutting off bits and was still in need; on the left a man took a meal but had not enough; no man had pity on his brother; every man was making a meal of the flesh of his neighbour

bbe@Isaiah:9:21 @Manasseh was making a meal of Ephraim, and Ephraim of Manasseh; and together they were attacking Judah. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

bbe@Isaiah:10:2 @Who do wrong to the poor in their cause, and take away the right of the crushed among my people, so that they may have the property of widows, and get under their power those who have no father.

bbe@Isaiah:10:11 @So, as I have done to Samaria and her images, I will do to Jerusalem and her images.

bbe@Isaiah:10:14 @And I have put my hands on the wealth of the peoples, as on the place where a bird has put her eggs; and as a man may take the eggs from which a bird has gone, so I have taken all the earth for myself: and not a wing was moved, and not a mouth gave out a sound.

bbe@Isaiah:10:18 @And he will put an end to the glory of his woods and of his planted fields, soul and body together; and it will be as when a man is wasted by disease.

bbe@Isaiah:10:30 @Give a loud cry, daughter of Gallim; let Laishah give ear; let Anathoth give answer to her.

bbe@Isaiah:11:1 @And there will come a rod out of the broken tree of Jesse, and a branch out of his roots will give fruit.

bbe@Isaiah:11:6 @And the wolf will be living with the lamb, and the leopard will take his rest with the young goat; and the lion will take grass for food like the ox; and the young lion will go with the young ones of the herd; and a little child will be their guide.

bbe@Isaiah:11:7 @And the cow and the bear will be friends while their young ones are sleeping together.

bbe@Isaiah:11:12 @And he will put up a flag as a sign to the nations, and he will get together those of Israel who had been sent away, and the wandering ones of Judah, from the four ends of the earth.

bbe@Isaiah:11:13 @And the envy of Ephraim will be gone, and those who make trouble for Judah will come to an end: Ephraim will have no more envy of Judah, and there will be an end of Judah's hate for Ephraim.

bbe@Isaiah:11:14 @And they will be united in attacking the Philistines on the west, and together they will take the goods of the children of the east: their hand will be on Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon will be under their rule.

bbe@Isaiah:11:16 @And there will be a highway for the rest of his people from Assyria; as there was for Israel in the day when he came up out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Isaiah:13:4 @The noise of great numbers in the mountains, like the noise of a strong people! The noise of the kingdoms of the nations meeting together! The Lord of armies is numbering his forces for war.

bbe@Isaiah:13:8 @Their hearts will be full of fear; pains and sorrows will overcome them; they will be in pain like a woman in childbirth; they will be shocked at one another; their faces will be like flames.

bbe@Isaiah:13:10 @For the stars of heaven and its bright armies will not give their light: the sun will be made dark in his journey through the heaven, and the moon will keep back her light.

bbe@Isaiah:13:16 @Their young children will be broken up before their eyes; their goods will be taken away, and their wives made the property of others.

bbe@Isaiah:13:20 @People will never be living in it again, and it will have no more men from generation to generation: the Arab will not put up his tent there; and those who keep sheep will not make it a resting-place for their flocks.

bbe@Isaiah:13:21 @But the beasts of the waste land will have their holes there; and the houses will be full of crying jackals, and ostriches will have their place there, and evil spirits will be dancing there.

bbe@Isaiah:13:22 @And wolves will be answering one another in their towers, and jackals in their houses of pleasure: her time is near, and her days of power will quickly be ended.

bbe@Isaiah:14:2 @And the people will take them with them to their place: and the children of Israel will give them a heritage in the Lord's land as men-servants and women-servants, making them prisoners whose prisoners they were; and they will be rulers over their masters.

bbe@Isaiah:14:13 @For you said in your heart, I will go up to heaven, I will make my seat higher than the stars of God; I will take my place on the mountain of the meeting-place of the gods, in the inmost parts of the north.

bbe@Isaiah:14:14 @I will go higher than the clouds; I will be like the Most High.

bbe@Isaiah:14:20 @As for your fathers, you will not be united with them in their resting-place, because you have been the cause of destruction to your land, and of death to your people; the seed of the evil-doer will have no place in the memory of man.

bbe@Isaiah:14:21 @Make ready a place of death for his children, because of the evil-doing of their father; so that they may not come up and take the earth for their heritage, covering the face of the world with waste places.

bbe@Isaiah:14:23 @And I will make you a heritage for the hedgehog, and pools of water: and I will go through it with the brush of destruction, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Isaiah:14:25 @To let the Assyrian be broken in my land, and crushed under foot on my mountains: there will his yoke be taken away from them, and his rule over them come to an end.

bbe@Isaiah:14:31 @Send out a cry, O door! Make sounds of sorrow, O town! All your land has come to nothing, O Philistia; for there comes a smoke out of the north, and everyone keeps his place in the line.

bbe@Isaiah:15:2 @The daughter of Dibon has gone up to the high places, weeping: Moab is sounding her cry of sorrow over Nebo, and over Medeba: everywhere the hair of the head and of the face is cut off.

bbe@Isaiah:15:3 @In their streets they are covering themselves with haircloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their public places, there is crying and bitter weeping.

bbe@Isaiah:15:5 @My heart is crying out for Moab; her people go in flight to Zoar, and to Eglath-shelishiyah: for they go up with weeping by the slope of Luhith; on the way to Horonaim they send up a cry of destruction.

bbe@Isaiah:15:7 @For this cause they will take away their wealth, and the stores they have got together, over the stream of the water-plants.

bbe@Isaiah:16:8 @For the fields of Heshbon are waste, the vine of Sibmah is dead; the lords of nations were overcome by the produce of her vines; her vine-plants went as far as Jazer, and came even to the waste land; her branches were stretched out to the sea.

bbe@Isaiah:16:10 @And all joy is gone; no longer are they glad for the fertile field; and in the vine-gardens there are no songs or sounds of joy: the crushing of grapes has come to an end, and its glad cry has been stopped.

bbe@Isaiah:16:11 @For this cause the cords of my heart are sounding for Moab, and I am full of sorrow for Kir-heres.

bbe@Isaiah:17:2 @Her towns are unpeopled for ever; there the flocks take their rest in peace, without fear.

bbe@Isaiah:17:5 @And it will be like a man cutting the growth of his grain, pulling together the heads of the grain with his arm; even as when they get in the grain in the valley of Rephaim.

bbe@Isaiah:17:6 @But it will be like a man shaking an olive-tree, something will still be there, two or three berries on the top of the highest branch, four or five on the outside branches of a fertile tree, says the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@Isaiah:17:9 @In that day your towns will be like the waste places of the Hivites and the Amorites which the children of Israel took for a heritage, and they will come to destruction.

bbe@Isaiah:17:14 @In the evening there is fear, and in the morning they are gone. This is the fate of those who take our goods, and the reward of those who violently take our property for themselves.

bbe@Isaiah:18:1 @Ho! land of the sounding of wings, on the other side of the rivers of Ethiopia:

bbe@Isaiah:19:2 @And I will send the Egyptians against the Egyptians: and they will be fighting every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbour; town against town, and kingdom against kingdom.

bbe@Isaiah:19:3 @And the spirit of Egypt will be troubled in her, and I will make her decisions without effect: and they will be turning to the false gods, and to those who make hollow sounds, and to those who have control of spirits, and to those who are wise in secret arts.

bbe@Isaiah:19:8 @The fishermen will be sad, and all those who put fishing-lines into the Nile will be full of grief, and those whose nets are stretched out on the waters will have sorrow in their hearts.

bbe@Isaiah:19:12 @Where, then, are your wise men? let them make clear to you, let them give you knowledge of the purpose of the Lord of armies for Egypt.

bbe@Isaiah:19:13 @The chiefs of Zoan have become foolish, the chiefs of Noph are tricked, the heads of her tribes are the cause of Egypt's wandering out of the way.

bbe@Isaiah:19:14 @The Lord has sent among them a spirit of error: and by them Egypt is turned out of the right way in all her doings, as a man overcome by wine is uncertain in his steps.

bbe@Isaiah:19:15 @And in Egypt there will be no work for any man, head or tail, high or low, to do.

bbe@Isaiah:19:18 @In that day there will be five towns in the land of Egypt using the language of Canaan, and making oaths to the Lord of armies; and one of them will be named, The Town of the Sun.

bbe@Isaiah:19:19 @In that day there will be an altar to the Lord in the middle of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the Lord at the edge of the land.

bbe@Isaiah:19:23 @In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and Assyria will come into Egypt, and Egypt will come into Assyria; and the Egyptians will give worship to the Lord together with the Assyrians.

bbe@Isaiah:19:24 @In that day Israel will be the third together with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the earth:

bbe@Isaiah:19:25 @Because of the blessing of the Lord of armies which he has given them, saying, A blessing on Egypt my people, and on Assyria the work of my hands, and on Israel my heritage.

bbe@Isaiah:21:2 @A vision of fear comes before my eyes; the worker of deceit goes on in his false way, and the waster goes on making waste. Up! Elam; to the attack! Media; I have put an end to her sorrow.

bbe@Isaiah:21:9 @See, here come war-carriages with men, horsemen by twos: and in answer he said, Babylon is made low, is made low, and all her images are broken on the earth.

bbe@Isaiah:22:9 @And you saw all the broken places in the wall of the town of David: and you got together the waters of the lower pool.

bbe@Isaiah:22:13 @But in place of these there was joy and delight, oxen and sheep were being made ready for food, there was feasting and drinking: men said, Now is the time for food and wine, for tomorrow death comes.

bbe@Isaiah:22:16 @Who are you, and by what right have you made for yourself a resting-place here?

bbe@Isaiah:22:18 @Twisting you round and round like a ball he will send you out into a wide country: there you will come to your end, and there will be the carriages of your pride, O shame of your lord's house!

bbe@Isaiah:22:21 @And I will put your robe on him, and put your band about him, and I will give your authority into his hand: and he will be a father to the men of Jerusalem, and to the family of Judah.

bbe@Isaiah:22:23 @And I will put him like a nail in a safe place; and he will be for a seat of glory to his father's family.

bbe@Isaiah:22:24 @And all the glory of his father's family will be hanging on him, all their offspring, every small vessel, even the cups and the basins.

bbe@Isaiah:23:7 @Is this the town which was full of joy, whose start goes back to times long past, whose wanderings took her into far-off countries?

bbe@Isaiah:23:10 @Let your land be worked with the plough, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no longer any harbour.

bbe@Isaiah:23:12 @And he said, There is no more joy for you, O crushed virgin daughter of Zidon: up! go over to Kittim; even there you will have no rest.

bbe@Isaiah:23:17 @And it will be after the end of seventy years, that the Lord will have mercy on Tyre, and she will go back to her trade, acting as a loose woman with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.

bbe@Isaiah:23:18 @And her goods and her trade will be holy to the Lord: they will not be kept back or stored up; for her produce will be for those living in the Lord's land, to give them food for their needs, and fair clothing

bbe@Isaiah:24:2 @And it will be the same for the people as for the priest; for the servant as for his master; and for the woman-servant as for her owner; the same for the one offering goods for a price as for him who takes them; the same for him who gives money at interest and for him who takes it; the same for him who lets others have the use of his property as for those who make use of it.

bbe@Isaiah:24:9 @There is no more drinking of wine with a song; strong drink will be bitter to those who take it.

bbe@Isaiah:24:11 @There is a crying in the streets because of the wine; there is an end of all delight, the joy of the land is gone.

bbe@Isaiah:24:22 @And they will be got together, like prisoners in the prison-house; and after a long time they will have their punishment.

bbe@Isaiah:26:13 @O Lord, our God, other lords than you have had rule over us; but in you only is our salvation, and no other name will we take on our lips.

bbe@Isaiah:26:17 @As a woman with child, whose time is near, is troubled, crying out in her pain; so have we been before you, O Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:26:21 @For the Lord is coming out of his place to send punishment on the people of the earth for their evil-doing: the earth will let the blood drained out on her be seen, and will keep her dead covered no longer.

bbe@Isaiah:27:4 @My passion is over: if the thorns were fighting against me, I would make an attack on them, and they would be burned up together.

bbe@Isaiah:27:8 @Your anger against her has been made clear by driving her away; he has taken her away with his storm-wind in the day of his east wind.

bbe@Isaiah:27:9 @So by this will the sin of Jacob be covered, and this is all the fruit of taking away his punishment; when all the stones of the altar are crushed together, so that the wood pillars and the sun-images will not be put up again.

bbe@Isaiah:27:10 @For the strong town is without men, an unpeopled living-place; and she has become a waste land: there the young ox will take his rest, and its branches will be food for him.

bbe@Isaiah:27:12 @And it will be in that day that the Lord will get together his grain, from the River to the stream of Egypt, and you will be got together with care, O children of Israel.

bbe@Isaiah:28:7 @And further, these are uncertain through wine, and have gone out of the right way through strong drink: the priest and the prophet are uncertain through strong drink, they are overcome by wine, they have gone out of the way through strong drink; their vision is false, they go wrong in their decisions.

bbe@Isaiah:28:8 @For all the tables are covered with coughed-up food, so that there is not a clean place.

bbe@Isaiah:28:10 @For it is one rule after another; one line after another; here a little, there a little.

bbe@Isaiah:28:13 @For this cause the word of the Lord will be to them rule after rule, line after line, here a little, there a little; so that they may go on their way, and falling back may be broken, and taken in the net.

bbe@Isaiah:28:26 @For his God is his teacher, giving him the knowledge of these things.

bbe@Isaiah:29:2 @And I will send trouble on Ariel, and there will be weeping and cries of grief; and she will be to me as Ariel.

bbe@Isaiah:29:7 @And all the nations making war on Ariel, and all those who are fighting against her and shutting her in with their towers, will be like a dream, like a vision of the night.

bbe@Isaiah:29:8 @And it will be like a man desiring food, and dreaming that he is feasting; but when he is awake there is nothing in his mouth: or like a man in need of water, dreaming that he is drinking; but when he is awake he is feeble and his soul is full of desire: so will all the nations be which make war on Mount Zion.

bbe@Isaiah:30:7 @For there is no use or purpose in the help of Egypt: so I have said about her, She is Rahab, who has come to an end.

bbe@Isaiah:30:14 @And he will let it be broken as a potter's vessel is broken: it will be smashed to bits without mercy; so that there will not be a bit in which one may take fire from the fireplace, or water from the spring.

bbe@Isaiah:30:18 @For this cause the Lord will be waiting, so that he may be kind to you; and he will be lifted up, so that he may have mercy on you; for the Lord is a God of righteousness: there is a blessing on all whose hope is in him.

bbe@Isaiah:30:20 @And though the Lord will give you the bread of trouble and the water of grief, you will no longer put your teacher on one side, but you will see your teacher:

bbe@Isaiah:30:25 @And there will be rivers and streams of water on every tall mountain and on every high hill, in the day when great numbers are put to the sword, when the towers come down.

bbe@Isaiah:31:3 @For the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses are flesh, and not spirit: and when the Lord's hand is stretched out, the helper and he who is helped will come down together.

bbe@Isaiah:31:4 @For the Lord has said to me, As a lion, or a young lion, makes an angry noise over his food, and if a band of herdsmen come out against him, he will not be in fear of their voices, or give up his food for their noise: so the Lord of armies will come down to make war against Mount Zion and its hill.

bbe@Isaiah:32:10 @In not much more than a year, you, who are not looking for evil, will be troubled: for the produce of the vine-gardens will be cut off, and there will be no getting in of the grapes.

bbe@Isaiah:32:13 @And for the land of my people, where thorns will come up; even for all the houses of joy in the glad town.

bbe@Isaiah:32:16 @Then in the waste land there will be an upright rule, and righteousness will have its place in the fertile field.

bbe@Isaiah:32:18 @And my people will be living in peace, in houses where there is no fear, and in quiet resting-places.

bbe@Isaiah:33:4 @And the goods taken in war will be got together like the massing of young locusts; men will be rushing on them like the rushing of locusts.

bbe@Isaiah:33:6 @And she will have no more fear of change, being full of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge: the fear of the Lord is her wealth.

bbe@Isaiah:33:8 @The highways are waste, no man is journeying there: the agreement is broken, he has made sport of the towns, he has no thought for man.

bbe@Isaiah:33:18 @Your heart will give thought to the cause of your fear: where is the scribe, where is he who made a record of the payments, where is he by whom the towers were numbered?

bbe@Isaiah:33:21 @But there the Lord will be with us in his glory,... wide rivers and streams; where no boat will go with blades, and no fair ship will be sailing.

bbe@Isaiah:34:4 @And the heavens will be rolled together like the roll of a book: and all their army will be gone, like a dead leaf from the vine, or a dry fruit from the fig-tree.

bbe@Isaiah:34:7 @And the strong oxen will go down to death together with the smaller cattle.

bbe@Isaiah:34:11 @But the birds of the waste land will have their place there; it will be a heritage for the bittern and the raven: and it will be measured out with line and weight as a waste land.

bbe@Isaiah:34:12 @The jackals will be there, and her great ones will be gone; they will say, There is no longer a kingdom there, and all her chiefs will have come to an end.

bbe@Isaiah:34:13 @And thorns will come up in her fair houses, and waste plants in her strong towers: and foxes will make their holes there, and it will be a meeting-place for ostriches.

bbe@Isaiah:34:14 @And the beasts of the waste places will come together with the jackals, and the evil spirits will be crying to one another, even the night-spirit will come and make her resting-place there.

bbe@Isaiah:34:15 @The arrowsnake will make her hole and put her eggs there, and get her young together under her shade: there the hawks will come together by twos.

bbe@Isaiah:34:16 @See what is recorded in the book of the Lord: all these will be there, not one without the other: the mouth of the Lord has given the order, and his spirit has made them come together.

bbe@Isaiah:34:17 @And he has given them their heritage, and by his hand it has been measured out to them: it will be theirs for ever, their resting-place from generation to generation.

bbe@Isaiah:35:7 @And the burning sand will become a pool, and the dry earth springs of waters: the fields where the sheep take their food will become wet land, and water-plants will take the place of grass.

bbe@Isaiah:35:8 @And a highway will be there; its name will be, The Holy Way; the unclean and the sinner may not go over it, and those who go on it will not be turned out of the way by the foolish.

bbe@Isaiah:35:9 @No lion will be there, or any cruel beast; they will not be seen there; but those for whom the Lord has given a price,

bbe@Isaiah:36:1 @And it came about in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah that Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came up against all the walled towns of Judah and took them.

bbe@Isaiah:36:2 @And the king of Assyria sent the Rab-shakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to King Hezekiah with a strong force, and he took up his position by the stream of the higher pool, by the highway of the washerman's

bbe@Isaiah:36:3 @And there came out to him Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder.

bbe@Isaiah:36:14 @This is what the king says: Do not be tricked by Hezekiah, for there is no salvation for you in him.

bbe@Isaiah:36:19 @Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim? where are the gods of Samaria? and have they kept Samaria out of my hand?

bbe@Isaiah:37:3 @And they said to him, Hezekiah says, This day is a day of trouble and punishment and shame: for the children are ready to come to birth, but there is no strength to give birth to them.

bbe@Isaiah:37:7 @See, I will put a spirit into him, and bad news will come to his ears, and he will go back to his land; and there I will have him put to death.

bbe@Isaiah:37:8 @So the Rab-shakeh went back, and when he got there the king of Assyria was making war against Libnah: for it had come to his ears that the king of Assyria had gone away from Lachish.

bbe@Isaiah:37:12 @Did the gods of the nations keep safe those on whom my fathers sent destruction, Gozan and Haran and Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?

bbe@Isaiah:37:13 @Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the town of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivva?

bbe@Isaiah:37:14 @And Hezekiah took the letter from the hands of those who had come with it; and after reading it, Hezekiah went up to the house of the Lord, opening the letter there before the Lord,

bbe@Isaiah:37:17 @Let your ear be turned to us, O Lord; let your eyes be open, O Lord, and see: take note of all the words of Sennacherib who has sent men to say evil against the living God.

bbe@Isaiah:37:21 @Then Isaiah, the son of Amoz, sent to Hezekiah, saying, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, The prayer you have made to me against Sennacherib, king of Assyria, has come to my ears.

bbe@Isaiah:37:36 @And the angel of the Lord went out and put to death in the army of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand men: and when the people got up early in the morning, there was nothing to be seen but dead bodies.

bbe@Isaiah:37:37 @Sennacherib, king of Assyria, went back to his place at Nineveh.

bbe@Isaiah:38:5 @Go to Hezekiah, and say, The Lord, the God of David, your father, says, Your prayer has come to my ears, and I have seen your weeping: see, I will give you fifteen more years of life.

bbe@Isaiah:38:12 @My resting-place is pulled up and taken away from me like a herdsman's tent: my life is rolled up like a linen-worker's thread; I am cut off from the cloth on the frame: from day even to night you give me up to pain.

bbe@Isaiah:38:18 @For the underworld is not able to give you praise, death gives you no honour: for those who go down into the underworld there is no hope in your mercy.

bbe@Isaiah:38:19 @The living, the living man, he will give you praise, as I do this day: the father will give the story of your mercy to his children.

bbe@Isaiah:39:2 @And Hezekiah was glad at their coming, and let them see all his store of wealth, the silver and the gold and the spices and the oil, and all the house of his arms, and everything there was in his stores: there was nothing in all his house or his kingdom which he did not let them see.

bbe@Isaiah:39:3 @Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, What did these men say, and where did they come from? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country, even from Babylon.

bbe@Isaiah:39:4 @And he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah said in answer, They saw everything in my house: there is nothing among my stores which I did not let them see.

bbe@Isaiah:39:6 @Truly, the days are coming when everything in your house, and whatever your fathers have put in store till this day, will be taken away to Babylon: all will be gone.

bbe@Isaiah:39:8 @Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which you have said. And he said in his heart, There will be peace and quiet in my days.

bbe@Isaiah:40:2 @Say kind words to the heart of Jerusalem, crying out to her that her time of trouble is ended, that her punishment is complete; that she has been rewarded by the Lord's hand twice over for all her sins.

bbe@Isaiah:40:5 @And the glory of the Lord will be made clear, and all flesh will see it together, for the mouth of the Lord has said it.

bbe@Isaiah:40:11 @He will give food to his flock like a keeper of sheep; with his arm he will get it together, and will take up the lambs on his breast, gently guiding those which are with young.

bbe@Isaiah:40:12 @In the hollow of whose hand have the waters been measured? and who is able to take the heavens in his stretched-out fingers? who has got together the dust of the earth in a measure? who has taken the weight of the mountains, or put the hills into the scales?

bbe@Isaiah:40:13 @By whom has the spirit of the Lord been guided, or who has been his teacher?

bbe@Isaiah:40:28 @Have you no knowledge of it? has it not come to your ears? The eternal God, the Lord, the Maker of the ends of the earth, is never feeble or tired; there is no searching out of his wisdom.

bbe@Isaiah:41:1 @Come quietly before me, O sea-lands, and let the peoples get together their strength: let them come near; then let them say what they have to say: let us put forward our cause against one another.

bbe@Isaiah:41:2 @Who sent out from the east one who is right wherever he goes? he gives the nations into his hands, and makes him ruler over kings; he gives them as the dust to his sword, as dry stems before the wind to his bow.

bbe@Isaiah:41:6 @They gave help everyone to his neighbour; and everyone said to his brother, Take heart!

bbe@Isaiah:41:7 @So the metal-worker put heart into the gold-worker, and he who was hammering the metal smooth said kind words to the iron-worker, saying of the plate, It is ready: and he put it together with nails, so that there might be no slipping.

bbe@Isaiah:41:12 @You will make search for your haters but they will not be there; those who make war against you will be as nothing and will come to destruction.

bbe@Isaiah:41:17 @The poor and crushed are looking for water where no water is, and their tongue is dry for need of it: I the Lord will give ear to their prayer, I the God of Israel will not give them up.

bbe@Isaiah:41:19 @I will put in the waste land the cedar, the acacia, the myrtle, and the olive-tree; and in the lowland will be planted the fir-tree, the plane, and the cypress together:

bbe@Isaiah:45:5 @I am the Lord, and there is no other; there is no God but me: I will make you ready for war, though you had no knowledge of me:

bbe@Isaiah:45:6 @So that they may see from the east and from the west that there is no God but me: I am the Lord, and there is no other.

bbe@Isaiah:45:10 @Cursed is he who says to a father, To what are you giving life? or to a woman, What are you in birth-pains with?

bbe@Isaiah:45:14 @The Lord says, The workmen of Egypt, and the traders of Ethiopia, and the tall Sabaeans, will come over the sea to you, and they will be yours; they will go after you; in chains they will come over: and they will go down on their faces before you, and will make prayer to you, saying, Truly, God is among you; and there is no other God.

bbe@Isaiah:45:18 @For this is the word of the Lord who made the heavens; he is God; the maker and designer of the earth; who made it not to be a waste, but as a living-place for man: I am the Lord, and there is no other.

bbe@Isaiah:45:20 @Come together, even come near, you nations who are still living: they have no knowledge who take up their image of wood, and make prayer to a god in whom is no salvation.

bbe@Isaiah:45:21 @Give the word, put forward your cause, let us have a discussion together: who has given news of this in the past? who made it clear in early times? did not I, the Lord? and there is no God but me; a true God and a saviour; there is no other.

bbe@Isaiah:45:22 @Let your hearts be turned to me, so that you may have salvation, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is no other.

bbe@Isaiah:45:24 @Only in the Lord will Jacob overcome and be strong: together all those who were angry with him will be put to shame and come to destruction.

bbe@Isaiah:46:2 @They are bent down, they are falling together: they were not able to keep their images safe, but they themselves have been taken prisoner.

bbe@Isaiah:46:9 @Let the things which are past come to your memory: for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like me;

bbe@Isaiah:47:6 @I was angry with my people, I put shame on my heritage, and gave them into your hands: you had no mercy on them; you put a cruel yoke on those who were old;

bbe@Isaiah:47:8 @So now take note of this, you who are given up to pleasure, living without fear of evil, saying in your heart, I am, and there is no one like me; I will never be a widow, or have my children taken from me.

bbe@Isaiah:47:10 @For you had faith in your evil-doing; you said, No one sees me; by your wisdom and knowledge you have been turned out of the way: and you have said in your heart, I am, and there is no other.

bbe@Isaiah:47:13 @But your mind is troubled by the number of your guides: let them now come forward for your salvation: the measurers of the heavens, the watchers of the stars, and those who are able to say from month to month what things are coming on you.

bbe@Isaiah:48:11 @For myself, even because of my name, I will do it; for I will not let my name be shamed; and my glory I will not give to another.

bbe@Isaiah:48:14 @Come together, all of you, and give ear; who among you has given news of these things? the Lord's loved one will do his pleasure with Babylon, and with the seed of the Chaldaeans.

bbe@Isaiah:48:16 @Come near to me, and give ear to this; from the start I did not keep it secret; from the time of its coming into existence I was there: and now the Lord God has sent me, and given me his spirit.

bbe@Isaiah:48:22 @There is no peace, says the Lord, for the evil-doers.

bbe@Isaiah:49:1 @Give ear, O sea-lands, to me; and take note, you peoples from far: I have been marked out by the Lord from the first; when I was still in my mother's body, he had my name in mind:

bbe@Isaiah:49:5 @And now, says the Lord, who made me his servant when I was still in my mother's body, so that I might make Jacob come back to him, and so that Israel might come together to him: and I was honoured in the eyes of the Lord, and my God became my strength.

bbe@Isaiah:49:8 @This is the word of the Lord: I have given ear to you at a good time, and I have been your helper in a day of salvation: and I will keep you safe, and will make you a glory for the people, putting the land in order, and giving them the heritages which now are waste;

bbe@Isaiah:49:9 @Saying to those who are in chains, Go free; to those who are in the dark, Come out into the light. They will get food by the way wherever they go, and have grass-lands on all the dry mountain-tops.

bbe@Isaiah:49:15 @Will a woman give up the child at her breast, will she be without pity for the fruit of her body? yes, these may, but I will not let you go out of my memory.

bbe@Isaiah:49:18 @Let your eyes be lifted up round about, and see: they are all coming together to you. By my life, says the Lord, truly you will put them all on you as an ornament, and be clothed with them like a bride.

bbe@Isaiah:49:20 @The children to whom you gave birth in other lands will say in your ears, The place is not wide enough for me: make room for me to have a resting-place.

bbe@Isaiah:49:21 @Then you will say in your heart, Who has given me all these children? when my children had been taken from me, and I was no longer able to have others, who took care of these? when I was by myself, where then were these?

bbe@Isaiah:50:1 @This is the word of the Lord: Where is the statement which I gave your mother when I put her away? or to which of my creditors have I given you for money? It was for your sins that you were given into the hands of others, and for your evil-doing was your mother put away.

bbe@Isaiah:50:2 @Why, then, when I came, was there no man? and no one to give answer to my voice? has my hand become feeble, so that it is unable to take up your cause? or have I no power to make you free? See, at my word the sea becomes dry, I make the rivers a waste land: their fish are dead for need of water, and make an evil smell.

bbe@Isaiah:50:8 @He who takes up my cause is near; who will go to law with me? let us come together before the judge: who is against me? let him come near to me.

bbe@Isaiah:51:2 @Let your thoughts be turned to Abraham, your father, and to Sarah, who gave you birth: for when he was but one, my voice came to him, and I gave him my blessing, and made him a great people.

bbe@Isaiah:51:3 @For the Lord has given comfort to Zion: he has made glad all her broken walls; making her waste places like Eden, and changing her dry land into the garden of the Lord; joy and delight will be there, praise and the sound of melody.

bbe@Isaiah:51:13 @And you have given no thought to the Lord your Maker, by whom the heavens were stretched out, and the earth placed on its base; and you went all day in fear of the wrath of the cruel one, when he was making ready for your destruction. And where is the wrath of the cruel one?

bbe@Isaiah:51:18 @She has no one among all her children to be her guide; not one of the sons she has taken care of takes her by the hand.

bbe@Isaiah:52:1 @Awake! awake! put on your strength, O Zion; put on your beautiful robes, O Jerusalem, the holy town: for from now there will never again come into you the unclean and those without circumcision.

bbe@Isaiah:52:4 @For the Lord God says, My people went down at first into Egypt, to get a place for themselves there: and the Assyrian put a cruel yoke on them without cause.

bbe@Isaiah:52:5 @Now then, what have I here? says the Lord, for my people are taken away without cause; they are made waste and give cries of sorrow, says the Lord, and all the day the nations put shame on my name.

bbe@Isaiah:52:6 @For this cause I will make my name clear to my people; in that day they will be certain that it is my word which comes to them; see, here am I.

bbe@Isaiah:52:8 @The voice of your watchmen! their voices are loud in song together; for they will see him, eye to eye, when the Lord comes back to Zion.

bbe@Isaiah:52:9 @Give sounds of joy, make melody together, waste places of Jerusalem: for the Lord has given comfort to his people, he has taken up the cause of Jerusalem.

bbe@Isaiah:52:11 @Away! away! go out from there, touching no unclean thing; go out from among her; be clean, you who take up the vessels of the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:53:7 @Men were cruel to him, but he was gentle and quiet; as a lamb taken to its death, and as a sheep before those who take her wool makes no sound, so he said not a word.

bbe@Isaiah:53:12 @For this cause he will have a heritage with the great, and he will have a part in the goods of war with the strong, because he gave up his life, and was numbered with the evil-doers; taking on himself the sins of the people, and making prayer for the wrongdoers.

bbe@Isaiah:54:1 @Let your voice be loud in song, O woman without children; make melody and sounds of joy, you who did not give birth: for the children of her who had no husband are more than those of the married wife, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:54:3 @For I will make wide your limits on the right hand and on the left; and your seed will take the nations for a heritage, and make the waste towns full of people.

bbe@Isaiah:54:15 @See, they may be moved to war, but not by my authority: all those who come together to make an attack on you, will be broken against you.

bbe@Isaiah:54:17 @No instrument of war which is formed against you will be of any use; and every tongue which says evil against you will be judged false. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness comes from me, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:55:6 @Make search for the Lord while he is there, make prayer to him while he is near:

bbe@Isaiah:55:7 @Let the sinner give up his way, and the evil-doer his purpose: and let him come back to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for there is full forgiveness with him.

bbe@Isaiah:55:9 @For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

bbe@Isaiah:56:8 @The Lord God, who gets together the wandering ones of Israel, says, I will get together others in addition to those of Israel who have come back.

bbe@Isaiah:56:9 @All you beasts of the field, come together for your meat, even all you beasts of the wood.

bbe@Isaiah:57:3 @But come near, you sons of her who is wise in secret arts, the seed of her who is false to her husband, and of the loose woman.

bbe@Isaiah:57:6 @Among the smooth stones of the valley is your heritage; they, even they, are your part: even to them have you made a drink offering and a meal offering. Is it possible for such things to be overlooked by me?

bbe@Isaiah:57:7 @You have put your bed on a high mountain: there you went up to make your offering.

bbe@Isaiah:57:8 @And on the back of the doors and on the pillars you have put your sign: for you have been false to me with another; you have made your bed wide, and made an agreement with them; you had a desire for their bed where you saw it

bbe@Isaiah:57:10 @You were tired with your long journeys; but you did not say, There is no hope: you got new strength, and so you were not feeble.

bbe@Isaiah:57:13 @Your false gods will not keep you safe in answer to your cry; but the wind will take them, they will be gone like a breath: but he who puts his hope in me will take the land, and will have my holy mountain as his heritage.

bbe@Isaiah:57:20 @But the evil-doers are like the troubled sea, for which there is no rest, and its waters send up earth and waste.

bbe@Isaiah:57:21 @There is no peace, says my God, for the evil-doers.

bbe@Isaiah:58:9 @Then at the sound of your voice, the Lord will give an answer; at your cry he will say, Here am I. If you take away from among you the yoke, the putting out of the finger of shame, and the evil word;

bbe@Isaiah:58:14 @Then the Lord will be your delight; and I will put you on the high places of the earth; and I will give you the heritage of Jacob your father: for the mouth of the Lord has said it.

bbe@Isaiah:59:8 @They have no knowledge of the way of peace, and there is no sense of what is right in their behaviour: they have made for themselves ways which are not straight; whoever goes in them has no knowledge of peace.

bbe@Isaiah:59:9 @For this cause our right is far from us, and righteousness does not overtake us: we are looking for light, but there is only the dark; for the shining of the sun, but our way is in the night.

bbe@Isaiah:59:11 @We make noises of grief, like bears, and sad sounds like doves: we are looking for our right, but it is not there; for salvation, but it is far from us.

bbe@Isaiah:59:15 @Yes, faith is gone; and he whose heart is turned from evil comes into the power of the cruel: and the Lord saw it, and he was angry that there was no one to take up their cause.

bbe@Isaiah:59:16 @And he saw that there was no man, and was surprised that there was no one to take up their cause: so his arm gave salvation, and he made righteousness his support.

bbe@Isaiah:60:4 @Let your eyes be lifted up, and see: they are all coming together to you: your sons will come from far, and your daughters taken with loving care.

bbe@Isaiah:60:7 @All the flocks of Kedar will come together to you, the sheep of Nebaioth will be ready for your need; they will be pleasing offerings on my altar, and my house of prayer will be beautiful.

bbe@Isaiah:60:13 @The glory of Lebanon will come to you, the cypress, the plane, and the sherbin-tree together, to make my holy place beautiful; and the resting-place of my feet will be full of glory.

bbe@Isaiah:60:20 @Your sun will never again go down, or your moon keep back her light: for the Lord will be your eternal light, and the days of your sorrow will be ended.

bbe@Isaiah:60:21 @Your people will all be upright, the land will be their heritage for ever; the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, to be for my glory.

bbe@Isaiah:61:5 @And men from strange countries will be your herdsmen, and those who are not Israelites will be your ploughmen and vine-keepers.

bbe@Isaiah:61:7 @As they had twice as much grief, and marks of shame were their heritage, so in their land they will be rewarded twice over, and will have eternal joy.

bbe@Isaiah:61:10 @I will be full of joy in the Lord, my soul will be glad in my God; for he has put on me the clothing of salvation, covering me with the robe of righteousness, as the husband puts on a fair head-dress, and the bride makes herself beautiful with jewels.

bbe@Isaiah:62:1 @Because of Zion I will not keep quiet, and because of Jerusalem I will take no rest, till her righteousness goes out like the shining of the sun, and her salvation like a burning light.

bbe@Isaiah:62:4 @You will not now be named, She who is given up; and your land will no longer be named, The waste land: but you will have the name, My pleasure is in her, and your land will be named, Married: for the Lord has pleasure in you, and your land will be married.

bbe@Isaiah:62:7 @And give him no rest, till he puts Jerusalem in her place to be praised in the earth.

bbe@Isaiah:63:3 @I have been crushing the grapes by myself, and of the peoples there was no man with me: in my wrath and in my passion, they were crushed under my feet; and my robes are marked with their life-blood, and all my clothing is red.

bbe@Isaiah:63:5 @And I saw that there was no helper, and I was wondering that no one gave them support: so my arm did the work of salvation, and my wrath was my support.

bbe@Isaiah:63:11 @Then the early days came to their minds, the days of Moses his servant: and they said, Where is he who made the keeper of his flock come up from the sea? where is he who put his holy spirit among them,

bbe@Isaiah:63:15 @Let your eyes be looking down from heaven, from your holy and beautiful house: where is your deep feeling, the working of your power? do not keep back the moving of your pity and your mercies:

bbe@Isaiah:63:16 @For you are our father, though Abraham has no knowledge of us, and Israel gives no thought to us: you, O Lord, are our father; from the earliest days you have taken up our cause.

bbe@Isaiah:63:17 @O Lord, why do you send us wandering from your ways, making our hearts hard, so that we have no fear of you? Come back, because of your servants, the tribes of your heritage.

bbe@Isaiah:64:7 @And there is no one who makes prayer to your name, or who is moved to keep true to you: for your face is veiled from us, and you have given us into the power of our sins.

bbe@Isaiah:64:8 @But now, O Lord, you are our father; we are the earth, and you are our maker; and we are all the work of your hand.

bbe@Isaiah:64:11 @Our holy and beautiful house, where our fathers gave praise to you, is burned with fire; and all the things of our desire have come to destruction.

bbe@Isaiah:65:1 @I have been ready to give an answer to those who did not make prayer to me; I have been offering myself to those who were not searching for me; I said, Here am I, here am I, to a nation which gave no respect to my name.

bbe@Isaiah:65:7 @For their sins and the sins of their fathers, who were burning perfumes on the mountains, and saying evil things against me on the hills: so I will take the measure of their sins, and will send the punishment for them into their breast.

bbe@Isaiah:65:9 @And I will take a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah one who will have my mountains for a heritage: and the people I have taken to be mine will have it for themselves, and my servants will have their resting-place there.

bbe@Isaiah:65:10 @And Sharon will be a grass-land for the flocks, and the valley of Achor a resting-place for the herds: for my people whose hearts have been turned back to me.

bbe@Isaiah:65:15 @And your name will become a curse to my people, and the Lord God will put you to death, and give his servants another name:

bbe@Isaiah:65:18 @But men will be glad and have joy for ever in what I am making; for I am making Jerusalem a delight, and her people a joy.

bbe@Isaiah:65:19 @And I will be glad over Jerusalem, and have joy in my people: and the voice of weeping will no longer be sounding in her, or the voice of grief.

bbe@Isaiah:65:20 @No longer will there be there a child whose days are cut short, or an old man whose days have not come to their full measure: for the young man at his death will be a hundred years old, and he whose life is shorter than a hundred years will seem as one cursed.

bbe@Isaiah:65:22 @They will no longer be building for the use of others, or planting for others to have the fruit: for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, and my loved ones will have joy in full measure in the work of their hands.

bbe@Isaiah:65:25 @The wolf and the lamb will take their food together, and the lion will make a meal of grass like the ox: but dust will be the snake's food. There will be no cause of pain or destruction in all my holy mountain, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:66:6 @There is a noise of war from the town, a sound from the Temple, the voice of the Lord giving punishment to his haters.

bbe@Isaiah:66:7 @Before her pains came, she gave birth; before her pains, she gave birth to a man-child.

bbe@Isaiah:66:8 @When has such a story come to men's ears? who has seen such things? will a land come to birth in one day? will a nation be given birth in a minute? For when Zion's pains came on her, she gave birth to her children straight away.

bbe@Isaiah:66:10 @Have joy with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you her lovers: take part in her joy, all you who are sorrowing for her:

bbe@Isaiah:66:11 @So that you may take of the comfort flowing from her breasts, and be delighted with the full measure of her glory.

bbe@Isaiah:66:12 @For the Lord says, See, I will make her peace like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream, and she will take her children in her arms, gently caring for them on her knees.

bbe@Isaiah:66:13 @As to one who is comforted by his mother, so will I give you comfort: and you will be comforted in Jerusalem.

bbe@Isaiah:66:17 @As for those who keep themselves separate, and make themselves clean in the gardens, going after one in the middle, taking pig's flesh for food, and other disgusting things, such as the mouse: their works and their thoughts will come to an end together, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:66:18 @And I am coming to get together all nations and tongues: and they will come and will see my glory.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:5 @Before you were formed in the body of your mother I had knowledge of you, and before your birth I made you holy; I have given you the work of being a prophet to the nations.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:7 @But the Lord said to me, Do not say, I am a child: for wherever I send you, you are to go, and whatever I give you orders to say, you are to say.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:16 @And I will give my decision against them on account of all their evil-doing; because they have given me up, burning perfumes to other gods and worshipping the works of their hands.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:5 @These are the words of the Lord: What evil have your fathers seen in me that they have gone far from me, and, walking after what is false, have become false?

bbe@Jeremiah:2:6 @And they never said, Where is the Lord, who took us up out of the land of Egypt; who was our guide through the waste of sand, through an unplanted land full of deep holes, through a dry land of deep shade, which no one went through and where no man was living?

bbe@Jeremiah:2:7 @And I took you into a fertile land, where you were living on its fruit and its wealth; but when you came in, you made my land unclean, and made my heritage a disgusting thing.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:8 @The priests did not say, Where is the Lord? and those who were expert in the law had no knowledge of me: and the rulers did evil against me, and the prophets became prophets of the Baal, going after things without value.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:10 @For go over to the sea-lands of Kittim and see; send to Kedar and give deep thought to it; and see if there has ever been such a thing.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:23 @How are you able to say, I am not unclean, I have not gone after the Baals? see your way in the valley, be clear about what you have done: you are a quick-footed camel twisting her way in and out;

bbe@Jeremiah:2:24 @An untrained ass, used to the waste land, breathing up the wind in her desire; at her time, who is able to send her away? all those who are looking for her will have no need to make themselves tired; in her month they will get her.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:25 @Do not let your foot be without shoes, or your throat dry from need of water: but you said, There is no hope: no, for I have been a lover of strange gods, and after them I will go.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:27 @Who say to a tree, You are my father; and to a stone, You have given me life: for their backs have been turned to me, not their faces: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Up! and be our saviour.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:28 @But where are the gods you have made for yourselves? let them come, if they are able to give you salvation in the time of your trouble: for the number of your gods is as the number of your towns, O Judah.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:32 @Is it possible for a virgin to put out of her memory her ornaments, or a bride her robes? but my people have put me out of their memories for unnumbered days.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:1 @They say, If a man puts away his wife and she goes from him and becomes another man's, will he go back to her again? will not that land have been made unclean? but though you have been acting like a loose woman with a number of lovers, will you now come back to me? says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:2 @Let your eyes be lifted up to the open hilltops, and see; where have you not been taken by your lovers? You have been seated waiting for them by the wayside like an Arabian in the waste land; you have made the land unclean with your loose ways and your evil-doing.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:3 @So the showers have been kept back, and there has been no spring rain; still your brow is the brow of a loose woman, you will not let yourself be shamed.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:4 @Will you not, from this time, make your prayer to me, crying, My father, you are the friend of my early years?

bbe@Jeremiah:3:6 @And the Lord said to me in the days of Josiah the king, Have you seen what Israel, turning away from me, has done? She has gone up on every high mountain and under every branching tree, acting like a loose woman there.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:7 @And I said, After she has done all these things she will come back to me; but she did not. And her false sister Judah saw it.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:8 @And though she saw that, because Israel, turning away from me, had been untrue to me, I had put her away and given her a statement in writing ending the relation between us, still Judah, her false sister, had no fear, but went and did the same.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:9 @So that through all her loose behaviour the land became unclean, and she was untrue, giving herself to stones and trees.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:10 @But for all this, her false sister Judah has not come back to me with all her heart, but with deceit, says the Lord

bbe@Jeremiah:3:11 @And the Lord said to me, Israel in her turning away is seen to be more upright than false Judah.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:17 @At that time Jerusalem will be named the seat of the Lord's kingdom; and all the nations will come together to it, to the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem: and no longer will their steps be guided by the purposes of their evil hearts.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:18 @In those days the family of Judah will go with the family of Israel, and they will come together out of the land of the north into the land which I gave for a heritage to your fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:19 @But I said, How am I to put you among the children, and give you a desired land, a heritage of glory among the armies of the nations? and I said, You are to say to me, My father; and not be turned away from me.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:20 @Truly, as a wife is false to her husband, so have you been false to me, O Israel, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:24 @But the Baal has taken all the work of our fathers from our earliest days; their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:25 @Let us be stretched on the earth in our downfall, covering ourselves with our shame: for we have been sinners against the Lord our God, we and our fathers, from our earliest years even till this day: and we have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:5 @Say openly in Judah, give it out in Jerusalem, and say, Let the horn be sounded in the land: crying out in a loud voice, Come together, and let us go into the walled towns.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:17 @Like keepers of a field they are against her on every side; because she has been fighting against me, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:25 @Looking, I saw that there was no man, and all the birds of heaven had gone in flight.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:31 @A voice has come to my ears like the voice of a woman in birth-pains, the pain of one giving birth to her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, fighting for breath, stretching out her hands, saying, Now sorrow is mine! for my strength is gone from me before the takers of life.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:1 @Go quickly through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and get knowledge, and make a search in her wide places if there is a man, if there is one in her who is upright, who keeps faith; and she will have my forgiveness.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:10 @Go up against her vines and make waste; let the destruction be complete: take away her branches, for they are not the Lord's.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:17 @They will take all the produce of your fields, which would have been food for your sons and your daughters: they will take your flocks and your herds: they will take all your vines and your fig-trees: and with the sword they will make waste your walled towns in which you put your faith.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:26 @For there are sinners among my people: they keep watch, like men watching for birds; they put a net and take men in it.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:28 @They have become fat and strong: they have gone far in works of evil: they give no support to the cause of the child without a father, so that they may do well; they do not see that the poor man gets his rights.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:1 @Go in flight out of Jerusalem, so that you may be safe, you children of Benjamin, and let the horn be sounded in Tekoa, and the flag be lifted up on Beth-haccherem: for evil is looking out from the north, and a great destruction.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:3 @Keepers of sheep with their flocks will come to her; they will put up their tents round her; everyone will get food in his place.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:4 @Make war ready against her; up! let us go up when the sun is high. Sorrow is ours! for the day is turned and the shades of evening are stretched out.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:5 @Up! let us go up by night, and send destruction on her great houses.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:6 @For this is what the Lord of armies has said: Let trees be cut down and an earthwork be placed against Jerusalem: sorrow on the false town! inside her there is nothing but cruel ways.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:7 @As the spring keeps its waters cold, so she keeps her evil in her: the sound of cruel and violent behaviour is in her; before me at all times are disease and wounds.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:11 @For this reason I am full of the wrath of the Lord, I am tired of keeping it in: may it be let loose on the children in the street, and on the band of the young men together: for even the husband with his wife will be taken, the old man with him who is full of days.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:12 @And their houses will be handed over to others, their fields and their wives together: for my hand will be stretched out against the people of the land, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:14 @And they have made little of the wounds of my people, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace

bbe@Jeremiah:6:16 @This is what the Lord has said: Take your place looking out on the ways; make search for the old roads, saying, Where is the good way? and go in it that you may have rest for your souls. But they said, We will not go in it.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:21 @For this reason the Lord has said, See, I will put stones in the way of this people: and the fathers and the sons together will go falling over them; the neighbour and his friend will come to destruction.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:25 @Go not out into the field or by the way; for there is the sword of the attacker, and fear on every side.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:2 @Take your place in the doorway of the Lord's house, and give out this word there, and say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who come inside these doors to give worship to the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:6 @If you are not cruel to the man from a strange country, and to the child without a father, and to the widow, and do not put the upright to death in this place, or go after other gods, causing damage to yourselves:

bbe@Jeremiah:7:7 @Then I will let you go on living in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers in the past and for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:9 @Will you take the goods of others, put men to death, and be untrue to your wives, and take false oaths, and have perfumes burned to the Baal, and go after other gods which are strange to you;

bbe@Jeremiah:7:12 @But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I put my name at first, and see what I did to it because of the evil-doing of my people Israel.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:14 @For this reason I will do to the house which is named by my name, and in which you have put your faith, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:15 @And I will send you away from before my face, as I have sent away all your brothers, even all the seed of Ephraim.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:18 @The children go for wood, the fathers get the fire burning, the women are working the paste to make cakes for the queen of heaven, and drink offerings are drained out to other gods, moving me to wrath.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:22 @For I said nothing to your fathers, and gave them no orders, on the day when I took them out of Egypt, about burned offerings or offerings of beasts:

bbe@Jeremiah:7:25 @From the day when your fathers came out of Egypt till this day, I have sent my servants the prophets to you, getting up early every day and sending them:

bbe@Jeremiah:7:26 @But still they took no note and would not give ear, but they made their necks stiff, doing worse than their fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:31 @And they have put up the high place of Topheth in the valley of the son of Hinnom, burning their sons and their daughters there in the fire; a thing which was not ordered by me and never came into my mind.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:32 @For this cause, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it will no longer be named Topheth, or, The valley of the son of Hinnom, but, The valley of Death: for they will put the dead into the earth in Topheth till there is no more room.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:33 @And the bodies of this people will be food for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth; and there will be no one to send them away.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:2 @And they will put them out before the sun and the moon and all the stars of heaven, whose lovers and servants they have been, after whom they have gone, to whom they have made prayers, and to whom they have given worship: they will not be put together or placed in the earth; they will be waste on the face of the earth.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:3 @And death will be desired more than life by the rest of this evil family who are still living in all the places where I have sent them away, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:4 @Further, you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Will those who are falling not be lifted up again? will he who has gone away not come back?

bbe@Jeremiah:8:7 @Truly, the stork in the heavens is conscious of her fixed times; the dove and the swallow and the crane keep to the times of their coming; but my people have no knowledge of the law of the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:10 @So I will give their wives to others, and their fields to those who will take them for themselves: for everyone, from the least to the greatest, is given up to getting money; from the priest even to the prophet, everyone is false.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:11 @And they have made little of the wounds of the daughter of Zion, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:13 @I will put an end to them completely, says the Lord: there are no grapes on the vine and no figs on the fig-tree, and the leaf is dry.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:14 @Why are we seated doing nothing? come together, and let us go to the walled towns, and let destruction overtake us there, for the Lord our God has sent destruction on us, and given us bitter water for our drink, because we have done evil against the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:15 @We were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there is only a great fear.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:19 @The voice of the cry of the daughter of my people comes from a far land: Is the Lord not in Zion? is not her King in her? Why have they made me angry with their images and their strange gods which are no gods?

bbe@Jeremiah:8:22 @Is there no life-giving oil in Gilead? is there no expert in medical arts? why then have my people not been made well?

bbe@Jeremiah:9:4 @Let everyone keep watch on his neighbour, and put no faith in any brother: for every brother will certainly be tricking his brother, and every neighbour will go about saying evil.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:6 @There is wrong on wrong, deceit on deceit; they have given up the knowledge of me, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:10 @Give yourselves to weeping, crying out in sorrow for the mountains; and for the fields of the waste land send up a song of grief, because they are burned up, so that no one goes through; there is no sound of cattle; the bird of the heavens and the beast are in flight and are gone.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:11 @And I will make Jerusalem a mass of broken stones, the living-place of jackals; and I will make the towns of Judah a waste, with no man living there.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:14 @But they have been walking in the pride of their hearts, going after the Baals, as their fathers gave them teaching.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:16 @And I will send them wandering among the nations, among people strange to them and to their fathers: and I will send the sword after them till I have put an end to them.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:20 @But even now, give ear to the word of the Lord, O you women; let your ears be open to the word of his mouth, training your daughters to give cries of sorrow, everyone teaching her neighbour a song of grief

bbe@Jeremiah:10:6 @There is no one like you, O Lord; you are great and your name is great in power.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:7 @Who would not have fear of you, O King of the nations? for it is your right: for among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is no one like you.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:8 @But they are together like beasts and foolish: the teaching of false gods is wood.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:13 @At the sound of his voice there is a massing of waters in the heavens, and he makes the mists go up from the ends of the earth; he makes the thunder-flames for the rain, and sends out the wind from his store-houses.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:14 @Then every man becomes like a beast without knowledge; every gold-worker is put to shame by the image he has made: for his metal image is deceit, and there is no breath in them.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:16 @The heritage of Jacob is not like these; for the maker of all things is his heritage: the Lord of armies is his name.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:17 @Get your goods together and go out of the land, O you who are shut up in the walled town.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:20 @My tent is pulled down and all my cords are broken: my children have gone from me, and they are not: no longer is there anyone to give help in stretching out my tent and hanging up my curtains.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:4 @To the order which I gave your fathers on the day when I took them out of the land of Egypt, out of the oven of iron, saying, Give ear to my voice, and do all the orders I have given you: so you will be my people, and I will be your God:

bbe@Jeremiah:11:5 @So that I may give effect to the oath which I made to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey as at this day. And I said in answer, So be it, O Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:7 @For I gave certain witness to your fathers on the day when I took them up out of the land of Egypt, and even to this day, getting up early and witnessing and saying, Give ear to my voice.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:9 @And the Lord said to me, There is an evil design at work among the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:10 @They are turned back to the sins of their fathers, who would not give ear to my words; they have gone after other gods and become their servants: the people of Israel and the people of Judah have not kept the agreement which I made with their fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:19 @But I was like a gentle lamb taken to be put to death; I had no thought that they were designing evil against me, saying, Come and let us make trouble his food, cutting him off from the land of the living, so that there may be no more memory of his name.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:6 @For even your brothers, your father's family, even they have been untrue to you, crying loudly after you: have no faith in them, though they say fair words to you.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:7 @I have given up my house, I have let my heritage go; I have given the loved one of my soul into the hands of her haters.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:8 @My heritage has become like a lion in the woodland to me; her voice has been loud against me; so I have hate for her.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:9 @My heritage is like a brightly coloured bird to me; the cruel birds are attacking her on every side: go, get together all the beasts of the field, make them come for destruction.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:10 @The keepers of sheep have been the destruction of my vine-garden, crushing my heritage under their feet; they have made my fair heritage an unplanted waste;

bbe@Jeremiah:12:12 @Those who make waste have come on all the open hilltops in the waste land; for the sword of the Lord sends destruction from one end of the land to the other end of the land: no flesh has peace.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:14 @This is what the Lord has said against all my evil neighbours, who put their hands on the heritage which I gave my people Israel: See, I will have them uprooted from their land, uprooting the people of Judah from among them.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:15 @And it will come about that, after they have been uprooted, I will again have pity on them; and I will take them back, every man to his heritage and every man to his land.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:4 @Take the band which you got for a price, which is round your body, and go to Parah and put it in a secret place there in a hole of the rock.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:6 @Then after a long time, the Lord said to me, Up! go to Parah and get the band which I gave you orders to put there.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:7 @So I went to Parah and, uncovering the hole, took the band from the place where I had put it away: and the band was damaged and of no use for anything.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:10 @These evil people who say they will not give ear to my words, who go on in the pride of their hearts and have become servants and worshippers of other gods, will become like this band which is of no use for anything.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:14 @I will have them smashed against one another, fathers and sons together, says the Lord: I will have no pity or mercy, I will have no feeling for them to keep me from giving them to destruction.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:18 @Say to the king and to the queen-mother, Make yourselves low, be seated on the earth: for the crown of your glory has come down from your heads.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:19 @The towns of the south are shut up, and there is no one to make them open: Judah is taken away as prisoners; all Judah is taken away as prisoners.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:20 @Let your eyes be lifted up (O Jerusalem), and see those who are coming from the north. Where is the flock which was given to you, your beautiful flock?

bbe@Jeremiah:14:1 @The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah when there was no water.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:3 @Their great men have sent their servants for water: they come to the holes and there is no water to be seen; they come back with nothing in their vessels; they are overcome with shame and fear, covering their heads.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:4 @Those who do work on the land are in fear, for there has been no rain on the land, and the farmers are shamed, covering their heads.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:5 @And the roe, giving birth in the field, lets her young one be uncared for, because there is no grass.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:6 @And the asses of the field on the open hilltops are opening their mouths wide like jackals to get air; their eyes are hollow because there is no grass.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:16 @And the people to whom they are prophets will be pushed out dead into the streets of Jerusalem, because there is no food, and because of the sword; and they will have no one to put their bodies into the earth, them or their wives or their sons or their daughters: for I will let loose their evil-doing on them.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:18 @If I go out into the open country, there are those put to death by the sword! and if I go into the town, there are those who are diseased from need of food! for the prophet and the priest go about in the land and have no knowledge.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:19 @Have you completely given up Judah? is your soul turned in disgust from Zion? why have you given us blows from which there is no one to make us well? we were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there was only a great fear.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:20 @We are conscious, O Lord, of our sin and of the wrongdoing of our fathers: we have done evil against you.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:2 @And it will be, when they say to you, Where are we to go? then you are to say to them, The Lord has said, Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are to be in need of food, to need of food; and such as are to be taken away prisoners, to be taken away.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:8 @I have let their widows be increased in number more than the sand of the seas: I have sent against them, against the mother and the young men, one who makes waste in the heat of the day, causing pain and fears to come on her suddenly.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:9 @The mother of seven is without strength; her spirit is gone from her, her sun has gone down while it is still day: she has been shamed and overcome: and the rest of them I will give up to the sword before their haters, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:10 @Sorrow is mine, my mother, because you have given birth to me, a cause of fighting and argument in all the earth! I have not made men my creditors and I am not in debt to any, but every one of them is cursing me.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:3 @For this is what the Lord has said about the sons and daughters who come to birth in this place, and about their mothers who have given them birth, and about their fathers who have given life to them in this land:

bbe@Jeremiah:16:4 @Death from evil diseases will overtake them; there will be no weeping for them and their bodies will not be put to rest; they will be like waste on the face of the earth: the sword and need of food will put an end to them; their dead bodies will be meat for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:7 @No one will make a feast for them in sorrow, to give them comfort for the dead, or put to their lips the cup of comfort on account of their father or their mother.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:11 @Then you will say to them, Because your fathers have given me up, says the Lord, and have gone after other gods and become their servants and their worshippers, and have given me up and have not kept my law;

bbe@Jeremiah:16:12 @And you have done worse evil than your fathers; for see, every one of you is guided by the pride of his evil heart, so as not to give ear to me:

bbe@Jeremiah:16:13 @For this reason I will send you away out of this land into a land which is strange to you, to you and to your fathers; there you will be the servants of other gods day and night, and you will have no mercy from me.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:15 @But, By the living Lord, who took the children of Israel up out of the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had sent them: and I will take them back again to their land which I gave to their fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:16 @See, I will send for great numbers of fishermen, says the Lord, and they will take them like fish in a net; and after that, I will send for numbers of bowmen, and they will go after them, driving them from every mountain and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:17 @For my eyes are on all their ways: there is no cover for them from my face, and their evil-doing is not kept secret from my eyes.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:18 @And I will give them the reward of their evil-doing and their sin twice over; because they have made my land unclean, and have made my heritage full of the bodies of their unholy and disgusting things.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:19 @O Lord, my strength and my strong tower, my safe place in the day of trouble, the nations will come to you from the ends of the earth, and say, The heritage of our fathers is nothing but deceit, even false things in which there is no profit.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:4 @And your hand will have to let go your heritage which I gave you; and I will make you a servant to your haters in a land which is strange to you: for you have put my wrath on fire with a flame which will go on burning for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:10 @I the Lord am the searcher of the heart, the tester of the thoughts, so that I may give to every man the reward of his ways, in keeping with the fruit of his doings.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:11 @Like the partridge, getting eggs together but not producing young, is a man who gets wealth but not by right; before half his days are ended, it will go from him, and at his end he will be foolish.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:15 @See, they say to me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come now.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:19 @This is what the Lord has said to me: Go and take your place in the doorway of Benjamin, where the kings of Judah come in and by which they go out, and in all the doorways of Jerusalem;

bbe@Jeremiah:17:22 @And take no weight out of your houses on the Sabbath day, or do any work, but keep the Sabbath day holy, as I gave orders to your fathers;

bbe@Jeremiah:17:25 @Then through the doors of this town there will come kings and princes, seated on the seat of David, going in carriages and on horseback, they and their princes, and the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem: and this town will keep its place for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:18:2 @Up! go down to the potter's house, and there I will let my words come to your ears.

bbe@Jeremiah:18:4 @And when the vessel, which he was forming out of earth, got damaged in the hand of the potter, he made it again into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to make it.

bbe@Jeremiah:18:12 @But they will say, There is no hope: we will go on in our designs, and every one of us will do what he is moved by the pride of his evil heart to do.

bbe@Jeremiah:19:2 @And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom, by the way into the door of broken pots, and there say in a loud voice the words which I will give you;

bbe@Jeremiah:19:4 @Because they have given me up, and made this place a strange place, burning perfumes in it to other gods, of whom they and their fathers and the kings of Judah had no knowledge; and they have made this place full of the blood of those who have done no wrong;

bbe@Jeremiah:19:9 @I will make them take the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters for food, they will be making a meal of one another, because of their bitter need and the cruel grip of their haters and those who have made designs against their life.

bbe@Jeremiah:19:11 @And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies has said: Even so will this people and this town be broken by me, as a potter's bottle is broken and may not be put together again: and the bodies of the dead will be put in the earth in Topheth, till there is no more room.

bbe@Jeremiah:19:13 @And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, which they have made unclean, will be like the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs perfumes have been burned to all the army of heaven, and drink offerings drained out to other gods.

bbe@Jeremiah:19:14 @Then Jeremiah came from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to give the prophet's word; and he took his place in the open square of the Lord's house, and said to all the people,

bbe@Jeremiah:19:15 @The Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, I will send on this town and on all her towns all the evil which I have said; because they made their necks stiff, so that they might not give ear to my words.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:2 @And Pashhur gave blows to Jeremiah and had his feet chained in a framework of wood in the higher doorway of Benjamin, which was in the house of the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:6 @And you, Pashhur, and all who are in your house, will go away prisoners: you will come to Babylon, and there your body will be put to rest, you and all your friends, to whom you said false words.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:9 @And if I say, I will not keep him in mind, I will not say another word in his name; then it is in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am tired of keeping myself in, I am not able to do it.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:10 @For numbers of them say evil secretly in my hearing (there is fear on every side): they say, Come, let us give witness against him; all my nearest friends, who are watching for my fall, say, It may be that he will be taken by deceit, and we will get the better of him and give him punishment.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:14 @A curse on the day of my birth: let there be no blessing on the day when my mother had me.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:15 @A curse on the man who gave the news to my father, saying, You have a male child; making him very glad.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:17 @Because he did not put me to death before my birth took place: so my mother's body would have been my last resting-place, and she would have been with child for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:18 @Why did I come from my mother's body to see pain and sorrow, so that my days might be wasted with shame?

bbe@Jeremiah:21:4 @The Lord God of Israel has said, See, I am turning back the instruments of war in your hands, with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and the Chaldaeans, who are outside the walls and shutting you in; and I will get them together inside this town.

bbe@Jeremiah:21:14 @I will send punishment on you in keeping with the fruit of your doings, says the Lord: and I will put a fire in her woodlands, burning up everything round about her

bbe@Jeremiah:22:1 @This is what the Lord has said: Go down to the house of the king of Judah and there give him this word,

bbe@Jeremiah:22:3 @This is what the Lord has said: Do what is right, judging uprightly, and make free from the hands of the cruel one him whose goods have been violently taken away: do no wrong and be not violent to the man from a strange country and the child without a father and the widow, and let not those who have done no wrong be put to death in this place.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:4 @For if you truly do this, then there will come in through the doors of this house kings seated on the seat of David, going in carriages and on horseback, he and his servants and his people

bbe@Jeremiah:22:9 @And they will say, Because they gave up the agreement of the Lord their God, and became worshippers and servants of other gods.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:10 @Let there be no weeping for the dead, and make no songs of grief for him: but make bitter weeping for him who has gone away, for he will never come back or see again the country of his birth.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:11 @For this is what the Lord has said about Shallum, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who became king in place of Josiah his father, who went out from this place: He will never come back there again:

bbe@Jeremiah:22:12 @But death will come to him in the place where they have taken him away prisoner, and he will never see this land again.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:15 @Are you to be a king because you make more use of cedar than your father? did not your father take food and drink and do right, judging in righteousness, and then it was well for him?

bbe@Jeremiah:22:18 @So this is what the Lord has said about Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah: They will make no weeping for him, saying, Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! they will make no weeping for him, saying, Ah lord! or, Ah his glory!

bbe@Jeremiah:22:24 @By my life, says the Lord, even if Coniah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, was the ring on my right hand, even from there I would have you pulled off;

bbe@Jeremiah:22:26 @I will send you out, and your mother who gave you birth, into another country not the land of your birth; and there death will come to you.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:28 @Is this man Coniah a broken vessel of no value? is he a vessel in which there is no pleasure? why are they violently sent out, he and his seed, into a land which is strange to them?

bbe@Jeremiah:23:3 @And I will get the rest of my flock together from all the countries where I have sent them, and will make them come back again to their resting-place; and they will have offspring and be increased.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:4 @And I will put over them keepers who will take care of them: never again will they be overcome with fear or be troubled, and there will not be the loss of one of them, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:8 @But, By the living Lord, who took up the seed of Israel, and made them come out of the north country, and from all the countries where I had sent them; and they will be living in the land which is theirs.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:12 @For this cause their steps will be slipping on their way: they will be forced on into the dark and have a fall there: for I will send evil on them in the year of their punishment, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:24 @In what secret place may a man take cover without my seeing him? says the Lord. Is there any place in heaven or earth where I am not? says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:27 @Whose purpose is to take away the memory of my name from my people by their dreams, of which every man is talking to his neighbour, as their fathers gave up the memory of my name for the Baal.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:33 @And if this people, or the prophet, or a priest, questioning you, says, What word of weight is there from the Lord? then you are to say to them, You are the word, for I will not be troubled with you any more, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:35 @But this is what you are to say, every man to his neighbour and every man to his brother, What answer has the Lord given? and, What has the Lord said?

bbe@Jeremiah:23:39 @For this reason, truly, I will put you completely out of my memory, and I will put you, and the town which I gave to you and to your fathers, away from before my face:

bbe@Jeremiah:24:2 @One basket had very good figs, like the figs which first come to growth: and the other basket had very bad figs, so bad that they were of no use for food.

bbe@Jeremiah:24:9 @I will give them up to be a cause of fear and of trouble among all the kingdoms of the earth; to be a name of shame and common talk and a cutting word and a curse in all the places wherever I will send them wandering.

bbe@Jeremiah:24:10 @And I will send the sword, and need of food, and disease, among them till they are all cut off from the land which I gave to them and to their fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:5 @Saying, Come back now, everyone from his evil way and from the evil of your doings, and keep your place in the land which the Lord has given to you and to your fathers, from times long past even for ever:

bbe@Jeremiah:25:6 @Do not go after other gods to be their servants and to give them worship, and do not make me angry with the work of your hands, causing evil to yourselves.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:26 @And all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:33 @And at that day, the bodies of those whom the Lord has put to death will be seen from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth: there will be no weeping for them, their bodies will not be taken up or put to rest in the earth; they will be like waste on the face of the land.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:35 @There will be no way of flight for the keepers of sheep, no road for the chiefs of the flock to get away safely.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:37 @And there is no sound in the fields of peace, because of the burning wrath of the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:26:9 @Why have you said in the name of the Lord, This house will be like Shiloh, and this land a waste with no one living in it? And all the people had come together to Jeremiah in the house of the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:26:14 @As for me, here I am in your hands: do with me whatever seems good and right in your opinion.

bbe@Jeremiah:26:20 @And there was another man who was a prophet of the Lord, Uriah, the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath-jearim; he said against this town and against this land all the words which Jeremiah had said:

bbe@Jeremiah:27:22 @They will be taken away to Babylon, and there they will be till the day when I send their punishment on them, says the Lord. Then I will take them up and put them back in their place.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:2 @(After Jeconiah the king and the queen-mother and the unsexed servants and the rulers of Judah and Jerusalem and the expert workmen and the metal-workers had gone away from Jerusalem;)

bbe@Jeremiah:29:6 @Take wives and have sons and daughters, and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, so that they may have sons and daughters; and be increased in number there and do not become less.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:13 @And you will be searching for me and I will be there, when you have gone after me with all your heart.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:14 @I will be near you again, says the Lord, and your fate will be changed, and I will get you together from all the nations and from all the places where I had sent you away, says the Lord; and I will take you back again to the place from which I sent you away prisoners.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:18 @I will go after them, attacking them with the sword and with need of food and with disease, and will make them a cause of fear to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse and a wonder and a surprise and a name of shame among all the nations where I have sent them:

bbe@Jeremiah:30:3 @For see, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will let the fate of my people Israel and Judah be changed, says the Lord: and I will make them come back to the land which I gave to their fathers, so that they may take it for their heritage.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:6 @Put the question and see if it is possible for a man to have birth-pains: why do I see every man with his hands gripping his sides, as a woman does when the pains of birth are on her, and all faces are turned green?

bbe@Jeremiah:30:7 @Ha! for that day is so great that there is no day like it: it is the time of Jacob's trouble: but he will get salvation from it.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:10 @So have no fear, O Jacob, my servant, says the Lord; and do not be troubled, O Israel: for see, I will make you come back from far away, and your seed from the land where they are prisoners; and Jacob will come back, and will be quiet and at peace, and no one will give him cause for fear.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:11 @For I am with you, says the Lord, to be your saviour: for I will put an end to all the nations where I have sent you wandering, but I will not put an end to you completely: though with wise purpose I will put right your errors, and will not let you go quite without punishment.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:13 @There is no help for your wound, there is nothing to make you well.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:6 @For there will be a day when those who get in the grapes on the hills of Ephraim will be crying, Up! let us go up to Zion to the Lord our God.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:8 @See, I will take them from the north country, and get them from the inmost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the feeble-footed, the woman with child and her who is in birth-pains together: a very great army, they will come back here.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:9 @They will come with weeping, and going before them I will be their guide: guiding them by streams of water in a straight way where there is no falling: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is the first of my sons.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:10 @Give ear to the word of the Lord, O you nations, and give news of it in the sea-lands far away, and say, He who has sent Israel wandering will get him together and will keep him as a keeper does his flock.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:12 @So they will come with songs on the high places, flowing together to the good things of the Lord, to the grain and the wine and the oil, to the young ones of the flock and of the herd: their souls will be like a watered garden, and they will have no more sorrow.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:15 @So has the Lord said: In Ramah there is a sound of crying, weeping and bitter sorrow; Rachel weeping for her children; she will not be comforted for their loss.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:17 @And there is hope for the future, says the Lord; and your children will come back to the land which is theirs.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:24 @And Judah and all its towns will be living there together; the farmers and those who go about with flocks.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:29 @In those days they will no longer say, The fathers have been tasting bitter grapes and the children's teeth are put on edge.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:32 @Not like the agreement which I made with their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to be their guide out of the land of Egypt; which agreement was broken by them, and I gave them up, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:34 @And no longer will they be teaching every man his neighbour and every man his brother, saying, Get knowledge of the Lord: for they will all have knowledge of me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord: for they will have my forgiveness for their evil-doing, and their sin will go from my memory for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:5 @And he will take Zedekiah away to Babylon, where he will be till I have pity on him, says the Lord: though you are fighting with the Chaldaeans, things will not go well for you?

bbe@Jeremiah:32:7 @See, Hanamel, the son of Shallum, your father's brother, will come to you and say, Give the price and get for yourself my property in Anathoth: for you have the right of the nearest relation.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:8 @So Hanamel, the son of my father's brother, came to me, as the Lord had said, to the place of the armed watchmen, and said to me, Give the price and get my property which is in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin: for you have the nearest relation's right to the heritage; so get it for yourself. Then it was clear to me that this was the word of the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:9 @So I got for a price the property in Anathoth from Hanamel, the son of my father's brother, and gave him the money, seventeen shekels of silver;

bbe@Jeremiah:32:12 @And I gave the paper to Baruch, the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, before the eyes of Hanamel, the son of my father's brother, and of the witnesses who had put their names to the paper, and before all the Jews who were seated in the place of the armed watchmen.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:15 @For the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, There will again be trading in houses and fields and vine-gardens in this land.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:17 @Ah Lord God! see, you have made the heaven and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm, and there is nothing you are not able to do:

bbe@Jeremiah:32:18 @You have mercy on thousands, and send punishment for the evil-doing of the fathers on their children after them: the great, the strong God, the Lord of armies is his name:

bbe@Jeremiah:32:20 @You have done signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, and even to this day, in Israel and among other men; and have made a name for yourself as at this day;

bbe@Jeremiah:32:22 @And have given them this land, which you gave your word to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey;

bbe@Jeremiah:32:23 @And they came in and took it for their heritage, but they did not give ear to your voice, and were not ruled by your law; they have done nothing of all you gave them orders to do: so you have made all this evil come on them:

bbe@Jeremiah:32:27 @See, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there anything so hard that I am unable to do it?

bbe@Jeremiah:32:29 @And the Chaldaeans, who are fighting against this town, will come and put the town on fire, burning it together with the houses, on the roofs of which perfumes have been burned to the Baal, and drink offerings have been drained out to other gods, moving me to wrath.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:33 @And they have been turning their backs and not their faces to me: and though I was their teacher, getting up early and teaching them, their ears were not open to teaching.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:37 @See, I will get them together from all the countries where I have sent them in my wrath and in the heat of my passion and in my bitter feeling; and I will let them come back into this place where they may take their rest safely.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:43 @And there will be trading in fields in this land of which you say, It is a waste, without man or beast; it is given into the hands of the Chaldaeans.

bbe@Jeremiah:33:10 @This is what the Lord has said: There will again be sounding in this place, of which you say, It is a waste, without man and without beast; even in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem which are waste and unpeopled, without man and without beast,

bbe@Jeremiah:33:12 @This is what the Lord of armies has said: Again there will be in this place, which is a waste, without man and without beast, and in all its towns, a resting-place where the keepers of sheep will make their flocks take rest.

bbe@Jeremiah:33:16 @In those days, Judah will have salvation and Jerusalem will be safe: and this is the name which will be given to her: The Lord is our righteousness.

bbe@Jeremiah:34:5 @You will come to your end in peace; and such burnings as they made for your fathers, the earlier kings before you, will be made for you; and they will be weeping for you and saying, Ah lord! for I have said the word, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:34:13 @The Lord, the God of Israel, has said, I made an agreement with your fathers on the day when I took them out of Egypt, out of the prison-house, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:34:14 @At the end of seven years every man is to let go his countryman who is a Hebrew, who has become yours for a price and has been your servant for six years; you are to let him go free: but your fathers gave no attention and did not give ear.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:3 @Then I took Jaazaniah, the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons and all the Rechabites;

bbe@Jeremiah:35:6 @But they said, We will take no wine: for Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, gave us orders, saying, You are to take no wine, you or your sons, for ever:

bbe@Jeremiah:35:7 @And you are to make no houses, or put in seed, or get vine-gardens planted, or have any: but all your days you are to go on living in tents, so that you may have a long life in the land where you are living as in a strange country.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:8 @And we have kept the rules of Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, in everything which he gave us orders to do, drinking no wine all our days, we and our wives and our sons and our daughters;

bbe@Jeremiah:35:10 @But we have been living in tents, and have done everything which Jonadab our father gave us orders to do.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:13 @This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Go and say to the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, Is there no hope of teaching you to give ear to my words? says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:14 @The orders which Jonadab, the son of Rechab, gave to his sons to take no wine, are done, and to this day they take no wine, for they do the orders of their father: but I have sent my words to you, getting up early and sending them, and you have not given ear to me.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:15 @And I have sent you all my servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them, saying, Come back, now, every man from his evil way, and do better, and go not after other gods to become their servants, and you will go on living in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but your ears have not been open, and you have not given attention to me.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:16 @Though the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have done the orders of their father which he gave them, this people has not given ear to me:

bbe@Jeremiah:35:18 @But to the Rechabites Jeremiah said, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Because you have done the orders of Jonadab your father, and have kept his rules, and done everything as he gave you orders to do it;

bbe@Jeremiah:36:6 @So you are to go, reading there from the book, which you have taken down from my mouth, the words of the Lord, in the hearing of the people in the Lord's house, on a day when they go without food, and in the hearing of all the men of Judah who have come out from their towns.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:10 @Then Baruch gave a public reading of the words of Jeremiah from the book, in the house of the Lord, in the room of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher square, as one goes in by the new doorway of the Lord's house, in the hearing of all the people.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:12 @Went down to the king's house, to the scribe's room: and all the rulers were seated there, Elishama the scribe and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the rulers.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:16 @Now it came about that, after hearing all the words, they said to one another in fear, We will certainly give the king an account of all these words.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:19 @Then the rulers said to Baruch, Go and put yourself in a safe place, you and Jeremiah, and let no man have knowledge of where you are.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:28 @Take another book and put down in it all the words which were in the first book, which Jehoiakim, king of Judah, put into the fire.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:32 @Then Jeremiah took another book, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who put down in it, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book which had been burned in the fire by Jehoiakim, king of Judah: and in addition a number of other words of the same sort.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:10 @For even if you had overcome all the army of the Chaldaeans fighting against you, and there were only wounded men among them, still they would get up, every man in his tent, and put this town on fire.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:12 @Jeremiah went out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, with the purpose of taking up his heritage there among the people.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:13 @But when he was at the Benjamin door, a captain of the watch named Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah, who was stationed there, put his hand on Jeremiah the prophet, saying, You are going to give yourself up to the Chaldaeans.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:16 @So Jeremiah came into the hole of the prison, under the arches, and was there for a long time.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:17 @Then King Zedekiah sent and got him out: and the king, questioning him secretly in his house, said, Is there any word from the Lord? And Jeremiah said, There is. Then he said, You will be given up into the hands of the king of Babylon.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:19 @Where now are your prophets who said to you, The king of Babylon will not come against you and against this land?

bbe@Jeremiah:37:20 @And now be pleased to give ear, O my lord the king; let my prayer for help come before you, and do not make me go back to the house of Jonathan the scribe, for fear that I may come to my death there.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:6 @So they took Jeremiah and put him into the water-hole of Malchiah, the king's son, in the place of the armed watchmen: and they let Jeremiah down with cords. And in the hole there was no water, but wet earth: and Jeremiah went down into the wet earth.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:9 @My lord the king, these men have done evil in all they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have put into the water-hole; and he will come to his death in the place where he is through need of food: for there is no more bread in the town.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:10 @Then the king gave orders to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, Take with you three men from here and get Jeremiah out of the water-hole before death overtakes him.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:11 @So Ebed-melech took the men with him and went into the house of the king, to the place where the clothing was kept, and got from there old clothing and bits of old cloth, and let them down by cords into the water-hole where Jeremiah was.

bbe@Jeremiah:40:5 @Then go back to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has made ruler over the towns of Judah, and make your living-place with him among the people; or go wherever it seems right to you to go. So the captain of the armed men gave him food and some money and let him go.

bbe@Jeremiah:40:15 @Then Johanan, the son of Kareah, said to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, Let me now go and put Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, to death without anyone's knowledge: why let him take your life so that all the Jews who have come together to you may be sent in flight, and the rest of the men of Judah come to an end?

bbe@Jeremiah:41:1 @Now it came about in the seventh month that Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the king's seed, having with him ten men, came to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, in Mizpah; and they had a meal together in Mizpah.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:8 @But there were ten men among them who said to Ishmael, Do not put us to death, for we have secret stores, in the country, of grain and oil and honey. So he did not put them to death with their countrymen.

bbe@Jeremiah:42:14 @Saying, No, but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we will not see war, or be hearing the sound of the horn, or be in need of food; there we will make our living-place;

bbe@Jeremiah:42:15 @Then give ear now to the word of the Lord, O you last of Judah: the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, If your minds are fixed on going into Egypt and stopping there;

bbe@Jeremiah:42:16 @Then it will come about that the sword, which is the cause of your fear, will overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and need of food, which you are fearing, will go after you there in Egypt; and there death will come to you.

bbe@Jeremiah:42:17 @Such will be the fate of all the men whose minds are fixed on going into Egypt and stopping there; they will come to their end by the sword, by being short of food, and by disease: not one of them will keep his life or get away from the evil which I will send on them.

bbe@Jeremiah:43:2 @Then Azariah, the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the men of pride, said to Jeremiah, You have said what is false: the Lord our God has not sent you to say, You are not to go into the land of Egypt and make your living-place there:

bbe@Jeremiah:43:5 @But Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces took all the rest of Judah who had come back into the land of Judah from all the nations where they had been forced to go;

bbe@Jeremiah:43:10 @And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and he will put the seat of his kingdom on these stones which have been put in a safe place here by you; and his tent will be stretched over them.

bbe@Jeremiah:43:12 @And he will put a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and they will be burned by him: and he will make Egypt clean as a keeper of sheep makes clean his clothing; and he will go out from there in peace.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:3 @Because of the evil which they have done, moving me to wrath by burning perfumes in worship to other gods, who were not their gods or yours or the gods of their fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:5 @But they gave no attention, and their ears were not open so that they might be turned from their evil-doing and from burning perfume to other gods.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:8 @Moving me to wrath with the work of your hands, burning perfumes to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to make a place for yourselves, so that you may become a curse and a name of shame among all the nations of the earth?

bbe@Jeremiah:44:9 @Have you no memory of the evil-doing of your fathers, and the evil-doing of the kings of Judah, and the evil-doing of their wives, and the evil which you yourselves have done, and the evil which your wives have done, in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

bbe@Jeremiah:44:10 @Even to this day their hearts are not broken, and they have no fear, and have not gone in the way of my law or of my rules which I gave to you and to your fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:12 @And I will take the last of Judah, whose minds are fixed on going into the land of Egypt and stopping there, and they will all come to their end, falling in the land of Egypt by the sword and by being short of food and by disease; death will overtake them, from the least to the greatest, death by the sword and by need of food: they will become an oath and a cause of wonder and a curse and a name of shame.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:14 @So that not one of the rest of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt and are living there, will get away or keep his life, to come back to the land of Judah where they are hoping to come back and be living again: for not one will come back, but only those who are able to get away.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:15 @Then all the men who had knowledge that their wives were burning perfumes to other gods, and all the women who were present, a great meeting, answering Jeremiah, said,

bbe@Jeremiah:44:17 @But we will certainly do every word which has gone out of our mouths, burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her as we did, we and our fathers and our kings and our rulers, in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then we had food enough and did well and saw no evil.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:18 @But from the time when we gave up burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her, we have been in need of all things, and have been wasted by the sword and by need of food.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:19 @And the women said, When we were burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her, did we make cakes in her image and give her our drink offerings without the knowledge of our husbands?

bbe@Jeremiah:44:21 @The perfumes which you have been burning in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers and your kings and your rulers and the people of the land, had the Lord no memory of them, and did he not keep them in mind?

bbe@Jeremiah:44:24 @Further, Jeremiah said to all the people and all the women, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all those of Judah who are living in Egypt:

bbe@Jeremiah:44:25 @This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: You women have said with your mouths, and with your hands you have done what you said, We will certainly give effect to the oaths we have made, to have perfumes burned to the queen of heaven and drink offerings drained out to her: then give effect to your oaths and do them.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:27 @See, I am watching over them for evil and not for good: all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will be wasted by the sword and by need of food till there is an end of them.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:28 @And those who get away safe from the sword will come back from the land of Egypt to the land of Judah, a very small number; and all the rest of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt and are living there, will see whose word has effect, mine or theirs.

bbe@Jeremiah:45:5 @And as for you, are you looking for great things for yourself? Have no desire for them: for truly I will send evil on all flesh, says the Lord: but your life I will keep safe from attack wherever you go.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:3 @Get out the breastplate and body-cover, and come together to the fight.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:10 @But that day is the day of the Lord, the Lord of armies, a day of punishment when he will take payment from his haters: and the sword will have all its desire, drinking their blood in full measure: for there is an offering to the Lord, the Lord of armies, in the north country by the river Euphrates.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:11 @Go up to Gilead and take sweet oil, O virgin daughter of Egypt: there is no help in all your medical arts; nothing will make you well.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:12 @Your shame has come to the ears of the nations, and the earth is full of your cry: for the strong man is falling against the strong, they have come down together.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:16 @... are stopped in their going, they are falling; and they say one to another, Let us get up and go back to our people, to the land of our birth, away from the cruel sword.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:20 @Egypt is a fair young cow; but a biting insect has come on her out of the north.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:21 @And those who were her fighters for payment are like fat oxen; for they are turned back, they have gone in flight together, they do not keep their place: for the day of their fate has come on them, the time of their punishment.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:22 @She makes a sound like the hiss of a snake when they come on with strength; they go against her with axes, like wood-cutters.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:23 @They will be cutting down her woods, for they may not be searched out; because they are like locusts, more than may be numbered.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:27 @But have no fear, O Jacob, my servant, and do not be troubled, O Israel: for see, I will make you come back from far away, and your seed from the land where they are prisoners; and Jacob will come back, and will be quiet and in peace, and no one will give him cause for fear.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:28 @Have no fear, O Jacob, my servant, says the Lord; for I am with you: for I will put an end to all the nations where I have sent you, but I will not put an end to you completely: though with wise purpose I will put right your errors, and will not let you go quite without punishment.

bbe@Jeremiah:47:3 @At the noise of the stamping of the feet of his war-horses, at the rushing of his carriages and the thunder of his wheels, fathers will give no thought to their children, because their hands are feeble;

bbe@Jeremiah:48:2 @The praise of Moab has come to an end; as for Heshbon, evil has been designed against her; come, let us put an end to her as a nation. But your mouth will be shut, O Madmen; the sword will go after you.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:3 @There is the sound of crying from Horonaim, wasting and great destruction;

bbe@Jeremiah:48:4 @Moab is broken; her cry has gone out to Zoar.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:7 @For because you have put your faith in your strong places, you, even you, will be taken: and Chemosh will go out as a prisoner, his priests and his rulers together.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:9 @Put up a pillar for Moab, for she will come to a complete end: and her towns will become a waste, without anyone living in them.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:12 @So truly, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will send to him men who will have him turned over till there is no more wine in his vessels, and his wine-skins will be completely broken.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:15 @He who makes Moab waste has gone up against her; and the best of her young men have gone down to their death, says the King, whose name is the Lord of armies.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:19 @O daughter of Aroer, take your station by the way, on the watch: questioning him who is in flight, and her who has got away safe, say, What has been done?

bbe@Jeremiah:48:28 @O people of Moab, go away from the towns and take cover in the rock; be like the dove of the Arabah, which makes her living-place in holes.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:31 @For this cause I will give cries of grief for Moab, crying out for Moab, even for all of it; I will be sorrowing for the men of Kir-heres.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:36 @So my heart is sounding for Moab like the sound of pipes, and my heart is sounding like pipes for the men of Kir-heres: for the wealth he has got for himself has come to an end.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:37 @For everywhere the hair of the head and the hair of the face is cut off: on every hand there are wounds, and haircloth on every body.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:38 @On all the house-tops of Moab and in its streets there is weeping everywhere; for Moab has been broken like a vessel in which there is no pleasure, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:1 @About the children of Ammon. These are the words of the Lord: Has Israel no sons? has he no one to take the heritage? why then has Milcom taken Gad for himself, putting his people in its towns?

bbe@Jeremiah:49:2 @Because of this, see, the days are coming when I will have a cry of war sounded against Rabbah, the town of the children of Ammon; it will become a waste of broken walls, and her daughter-towns will be burned with fire: then Israel will take the heritage of those who took his heritage, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:3 @Make sounds of grief, O Heshbon, for Ai is wasted; give loud cries, O daughters of Rabbah, and put haircloth round you: give yourselves to weeping, running here and there and wounding yourselves; for Milcom will be taken prisoner together with his rulers and his priests.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:4 @Why are you lifted up in pride on account of your valleys, your flowing valley, O daughter ever turning away? who puts her faith in her wealth, saying, Who will come against me?

bbe@Jeremiah:49:5 @See, I will send fear on you, says the Lord, the Lord of armies, from those who are round you on every side; you will be forced out, every man straight before him, and there will be no one to get together the wanderers.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:7 @About Edom. This is what the Lord of armies has said. Is there no more wisdom in Teman? have wise suggestions come to an end among men of good sense? has their wisdom completely gone?

bbe@Jeremiah:49:10 @I have had Esau searched out, uncovering his secret places, so that he may not keep himself covered: his seed is wasted and has come to an end, and there is no help from his neighbours.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:11 @Put in my care your children who have no father, and I will keep them safe; and let your widows put their faith in me.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:14 @Word has come to me from the Lord, and a representative has been sent to the nations, to say, Come together and go up against her, and take your places for the fight.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:17 @And Edom will become a cause of wonder: everyone who goes by will be overcome with wonder, and make sounds of fear at all her punishments.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:18 @As at the downfall of Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbouring towns, says the Lord, no man will be living in it, no son of man will have a resting-place there.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:19 @See, he will come up like a lion from the thick growth of Jordan against the resting-place of Teman: but I will suddenly make him go in flight from her; and I will put over her the man of my selection: for who is like me? and who will put forward his cause against me? and what keeper of sheep will be able to keep his place before me?

bbe@Jeremiah:49:24 @Damascus has become feeble, she is turned to flight, fear has taken her in its grip: pain and sorrows have come on her, as on a woman in birth-pains.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:26 @So her young men will be falling in her streets, and all the men of war will be cut off in that day, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:32 @And their camels will be taken from them by force, and their great herds will come into the hands of their attackers: those who have the ends of their hair cut I will send in flight to all the winds; and I will send their fate on them from every side, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:33 @And Hazor will be a hole for jackals, a waste for ever: no one will be living in it, and no son of man will have a resting-place there.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:36 @And I will send on Elam four winds from the four quarters of heaven, driving them out to all those winds; there will be no nation into which the wanderers from Elam do not come.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:2 @Give it out among the nations, make it public, and let the flag be lifted up; give the word and keep nothing back; say, Babylon is taken, Bel is put to shame, Merodach is broken, her images are put to shame, her gods are broken.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:3 @For out of the north a nation is coming up against her, which will make her land waste and unpeopled: they are in flight, man and beast are gone.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:4 @In those days and in that time, says the Lord, the children of Israel will come, they and the children of Judah together; they will go on their way weeping and making prayer to the Lord their God.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:7 @They have been attacked by all those who came across them: and their attackers said, We are doing no wrong, because they have done evil against the Lord in whom is righteousness, against the Lord, the hope of their fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:9 @For see, I am moving and sending up against Babylon a band of great nations from the north country: and they will put their armies in position against her; and from there she will be taken: their arrows will be like those of an expert man of war; not one will come back without getting its mark.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:10 @And the wealth of Chaldaea will come into the hands of her attackers: all those who take her wealth will have enough, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:11 @Because you are glad, because you are lifted up with pride, you wasters of my heritage, because you are playing like a young cow put out to grass, and you make a noise like strong horses;

bbe@Jeremiah:50:12 @Your mother will be put to shame; she who gave you birth will be looked down on: see, she will be the last of the nations, a waste place, a dry and unwatered land.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:13 @Because of the wrath of the Lord no one will be living in it, and it will be quite unpeopled: everyone who goes by Babylon will be overcome with wonder, and make sounds of fear at all her punishments.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:14 @Put your armies in position against Babylon on every side, all you bowmen; let loose your arrows at her, not keeping any back: for she has done evil against the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:15 @Give a loud cry against her on every side; she has given herself up, her supports are overturned, her walls are broken down: for it is the payment taken by the Lord; give her payment; as she has done, so do to her.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:20 @In those days and in that time, says the Lord, when the evil-doing of Israel is looked for, there will be nothing; and in Judah no sins will be seen: for I will have forgiveness for those whom I will keep safe.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:22 @There is a sound of war in the land and of great destruction.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:26 @Come up against her one and all, let her store-houses be broken open: make her into a mass of stones, give her to the curse, till there is nothing of her to be seen.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:27 @Put all her oxen to the sword; let them go down to death: sorrow is theirs, for their day has come, the time of their punishment.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:29 @Send for the archers to come together against Babylon, all the bowmen; put up your tents against her on every side; let no one get away: give her the reward of her work; as she has done, so do to her: for she has been uplifted in pride against the Lord, against the Holy One of Israel.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:30 @For this cause her young men will be falling in her streets, and all her men of war will be cut off in that day, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:32 @And pride will go with uncertain steps and have a fall, and there will be no one to come to his help: and I will put a fire in his towns, burning up everything round about him.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:33 @This is what the Lord of armies has said: The children of Israel and the children of Judah are crushed down together: all those who took them prisoner keep them in a tight grip; they will not let them go.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:35 @A sword is on the Chaldaeans, says the Lord, and on the people of Babylon, and on her rulers and on her wise men.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:36 @A sword is on the men of pride, and they will become foolish: a sword is on her men of war, and they will be broken.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:37 @A sword is on all the mixed people in her, and they will become like women: a sword is on her store-houses, and they will be taken by her attackers.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:38 @A sword is on her waters, drying them up; for it is a land of images, and their minds are fixed on false gods.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:39 @For this reason the beasts of the waste land with the wolves will make their holes there and the ostriches will be living in it: never again will men be living there, it will be unpeopled from generation to generation.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:40 @As when Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbouring towns were overturned by God, says the Lord, so no man will be living in it, and no son of man will have a resting-place there.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:44 @See, he will come up like a lion from the thick growth of Jordan against the resting-place of Teman: but I will suddenly make them go in flight from her; and I will put over her the man of my selection: for who is like me? and who will put forward his cause against me? and what keeper of sheep will keep his place before me?

bbe@Jeremiah:51:2 @And I will send men to Babylon to make her clean and get her land cleared: for in the day of trouble they will put up their tents against her on every side.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:3 @Against her the bow of the archer is bent, and he puts on his coat of metal: have no mercy on her young men, give all her army up to the curse.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:4 @And the dead will be stretched out in the land of the Chaldaeans, and the wounded in her streets.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:6 @Go in flight out of Babylon, so that every man may keep his life; do not be cut off in her evil-doing: for it is the time of the Lord's punishment; he will give her her reward.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:7 @Babylon has been a gold cup in the hand of the Lord, which has made all the earth overcome with wine: the nations have taken of her wine, and for this cause the nations have gone off their heads.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:8 @Sudden is the downfall of Babylon and her destruction: make cries of grief for her; take sweet oil for her pain, if it is possible for her to be made well.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:9 @We would have made Babylon well, but she is not made well: give her up, and let us go everyone to his country: for her punishment is stretching up to heaven, and lifted up even to the skies.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:16 @At the sound of his voice there is a massing of the waters in the heavens, and he makes the mists go up from the ends of the earth; he makes the thunder-flames for the rain and sends out the wind from his store-houses.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:17 @Then every man becomes like a beast without knowledge; every gold-worker is put to shame by the image he has made: for his metal image is deceit, and there is no breath in them.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:19 @The heritage of Jacob is not like these; for the maker of all things is his heritage: the Lord of armies is his name.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:27 @Let a flag be lifted up in the land, let the horn be sounded among the nations, make the nations ready against her; get the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz together against her, make ready a scribe against her; let the horses come up against her like massed locusts.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:28 @Make the nations ready for war against her, the king of the Medes and his rulers and all his captains, and all the land under his rule.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:30 @Babylon's men of war have kept back from the fight, waiting in their strong places; their strength has given way, they have become like women: her houses have been put on fire, her locks are broken.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:31 @One man, running, will give word to another, and one who goes with news will be handing it on to another, to give word to the king of Babylon that his town has been taken from every quarter:

bbe@Jeremiah:51:33 @For these are the words of the Lord of armies, the God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon is like a grain-floor when it is stamped down; before long, the time of her grain-cutting will come.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:36 @For this reason the Lord has said: See, I will give support to your cause, and take payment for what you have undergone; I will make her sea dry, and her fountain without water.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:38 @They will be crying out together like lions, their voices will be like the voices of young lions.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:40 @I will make them go down to death like lambs, like he-goats together.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:43 @Her towns have become a waste, a dry and unwatered land, where no man has his living-place and no son of man goes by.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:44 @And I will send punishment on Bel in Babylon, and take out of his mouth what went into it; no longer will the nations be flowing together to him: truly, the wall of Babylon will come down.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:45 @My people, go out from her, and let every man get away safe from the burning wrath of the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:46 @So that your hearts may not become feeble and full of fear because of the news which will go about in the land; for a story will go about one year, and after that in another year another story, and violent acts in the land, ruler against ruler.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:47 @For this cause, truly, the days are coming when I will send punishment on the images of Babylon, and all her land will be shamed, and her dead will be falling down in her.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:48 @And the heaven and the earth and everything in them, will make a song of joy over Babylon: for those who make her waste will come from the north, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:52 @For this reason, see, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will send punishment on her images; and through all her land the wounded will be crying out in pain.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:53 @Even if Babylon was lifted up to heaven, even if she had the high places of her strength shut in with walls, still I would send against her those who will make her waste, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:54 @There is the sound of a cry from Babylon, and of a great destruction from the land of the Chaldaeans:

bbe@Jeremiah:51:55 @For the Lord is making Babylon waste, and putting an end to the great voice coming out of her; and her waves are thundering like great waters, their voice is sounding loud:

bbe@Jeremiah:51:56 @For the waster has come on her, even on Babylon, and her men of war are taken, their bows are broken: for the Lord is a rewarding God, and he will certainly give payment.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:57 @And I will make her chiefs and her wise men, her rulers and her captains and her men of war, overcome with wine; their sleep will be an eternal sleep without awaking, says the King; the Lord of armies is his name.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:58 @The Lord of armies has said: The wide walls of Babylon will be completely uncovered and her high doorways will be burned with fire; so peoples keep on working for nothing, and the weariness of nations comes to an end in the smoke.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:64 @And you are to say, So Babylon will go down, never to be lifted up again, because of the evil which I will send on her: and weariness will overcome them. So far, these are the words of Jeremiah.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:1 @Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king; he was king for eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:6 @In the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, the store of food in the town was almost gone, so that there was no food for the people of the land.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:8 @And the Chaldaean army went after King Zedekiah and overtook him on the other side of Jericho, and all his army went in flight from him in every direction.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:16 @But Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, let the poorest of the land go on living there, to take care of the vines and the fields.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:22 @And there was a crown of brass on it: the crown was five cubits high, circled with a network and apples all of brass; and the second pillar had the same.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:23 @There were ninety-six apples on the outside; the number of apples all round the network was a hundred.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:25 @And from the town he took the unsexed servant who was over the men of war, and seven of the king's near friends who were in the town, and the scribe of the captain of the army, who was responsible for getting the people of the land together in military order, and sixty men of the people of the land who were in the town.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:32 @And he said kind words to him and put his seat higher than the seats of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.

bbe@Lamentations:1:1 @See her seated by herself, the town which was full of people! She who was great among the nations has become like a widow! She who was a princess among the countries has come under the yoke of forced work!

bbe@Lamentations:1:2 @She is sorrowing bitterly in the night, and her face is wet with weeping; among all her lovers she has no comforter: all her friends have been false to her, they have become her haters.

bbe@Lamentations:1:3 @Judah has been taken away as a prisoner because of trouble and hard work; her living-place is among the nations, there is no rest for her: all her attackers have overtaken her in a narrow place.

bbe@Lamentations:1:4 @The ways of Zion are sad, because no one comes to the holy meeting; all her doorways are made waste, her priests are breathing out sorrow: her virgins are troubled, and it is bitter for her.

bbe@Lamentations:1:5 @Those who are against her have become the head, everything goes well for her haters; for the Lord has sent sorrow on her because of the great number of her sins: her young children have gone away as prisoners before the attacker.

bbe@Lamentations:1:6 @And all her glory has gone from the daughter of Zion: her rulers have become like harts with no place for food, and they have gone in flight without strength before the attacker.

bbe@Lamentations:1:7 @Jerusalem keeps in mind, in the days of her sorrow and of her wanderings, all the desired things which were hers in days gone by; when her people came into the power of her hater and she had no helper, her attackers saw their desire effected on her and made sport of her destruction.

bbe@Lamentations:1:8 @Great is the sin of Jerusalem; for this cause she has become an unclean thing: all those who gave her honour are looking down on her, because they have seen her shame: now truly, breathing out grief, she is turned back.

bbe@Lamentations:1:9 @In her skirts were her unclean ways; she gave no thought to her end; and her fall has been a wonder; she has no comforter: see her sorrow, O Lord; for the attacker is lifted up.

bbe@Lamentations:1:10 @The hand of her hater is stretched out over all her desired things; for she has seen that the nations have come into her holy place, about whom you gave orders that they were not to come into the meeting of your people.

bbe@Lamentations:1:11 @Breathing out grief all her people are looking for bread; they have given their desired things for food to give them life: see, O Lord, and take note; for she has become a thing of shame.

bbe@Lamentations:1:12 @Come to me, all you who go by! Keep your eyes on me, and see if there is any pain like the pain of my wound, which the Lord has sent on me in the day of his burning wrath.

bbe@Lamentations:1:14 @A watch is kept on my sins; they are joined together by his hand, they have come on to my neck; he has made my strength give way: the Lord has given me up into the hands of those against whom I have no power.

bbe@Lamentations:1:15 @The Lord has made sport of all my men of war in me, he has got men together against me to send destruction on my young men: the virgin daughter of Judah has been crushed like grapes under the feet of the Lord.

bbe@Lamentations:1:20 @See, O Lord, for I am in trouble; the inmost parts of my body are deeply moved; my heart is turned in me; for I have been uncontrolled: outside the children are put to the sword, and in the house there is death.

bbe@Lamentations:2:2 @The Lord has given up to destruction all the living-places of Jacob without pity; pulling down in his wrath the strong places of the daughter of Judah, stretching out on the earth the wounded, even her king and her rulers.

bbe@Lamentations:2:5 @The Lord has become like one fighting against her, sending destruction on Israel; he has sent destruction on all her great houses, making waste his strong places: increasing the grief and the sorrow of the daughter of Judah.

bbe@Lamentations:2:7 @The Lord has given up his altar and has been turned in hate from his holy place; he has given up into the hands of the attacker the walls of her great houses: their voices have been loud in the house of the Lord as in the day of a holy meeting.

bbe@Lamentations:2:8 @It is the Lord's purpose to make waste the wall of the daughter of Zion; his line has been stretched out, he has not kept back his hand from destruction: he has sent sorrow on tower and wall, they have become feeble together.

bbe@Lamentations:2:9 @Her doors have gone down into the earth; he has sent destruction on her locks: her king and her princes are among the nations where the law is not; even her prophets have had no vision from the Lord.

bbe@Lamentations:2:12 @They say to their mothers, Where is grain and wine? when they are falling like the wounded in the open squares of the town, when their life is drained out on their mother's breast.

bbe@Lamentations:2:16 @All your haters are opening their mouths wide against you; making hisses and whistling through their teeth, they say, We have made a meal of her: certainly this is the day we have been looking for; it has come, we have seen it.

bbe@Lamentations:3:2 @By him I have been made to go in the dark where there is no light.

bbe@Lamentations:3:24 @I said to myself, The Lord is my heritage; and because of this I will have hope in him.

bbe@Lamentations:3:29 @Let him put his mouth in the dust, if by chance there may be hope.

bbe@Lamentations:3:45 @You have made us like waste and that for which there is no use, among the peoples.

bbe@Lamentations:4:6 @For the punishment of the daughter of my people is greater than the punishment of Sodom, which was overturned suddenly without any hand falling on her.

bbe@Lamentations:4:7 @Her holy ones were cleaner than snow, they were whiter than milk, their bodies were redder than corals, their form was as the sapphire:

bbe@Lamentations:4:13 @It is because of the sins of her prophets and the evil-doing of her priests, by whom the blood of the upright has been drained out in her.

bbe@Lamentations:4:15 @Away! unclean! they were crying out to them, Away! away! let there be no touching: when they went away in flight and wandering, men said among the nations, There is no further resting-place for them.

bbe@Lamentations:5:2 @Our heritage is given up to men of strange lands, our houses to those who are not our countrymen.

bbe@Lamentations:5:3 @We are children without fathers, our mothers are like widows.

bbe@Lamentations:5:7 @Our fathers were sinners and are dead; and the weight of their evil-doing is on us.

bbe@Lamentations:5:8 @Servants are ruling over us, and there is no one to make us free from their hands.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:3 @The word of the Lord came to me, Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldaeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the Lord was on me there.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:4 @And, looking, I saw a storm-wind coming out of the north, a great cloud with flames of fire coming after one another, and a bright light shining round about it and in the heart of it was something coloured like electrum.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:11 @And their wings were separate at the top; two of the wings of every one were joined one to another, and two were covering their bodies.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:12 @Every one of them went straight forward; wherever the spirit was to go they went; they went on without turning.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:13 @And between the living beings it was like burning coals of fire, as if flames were going one after the other between the living beings; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went thunder-flames.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:20 @Wherever the spirit was to go they went; and the wheels were lifted up by their side: for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:21 @When these went on, the others went; and when these came to rest, the others came to rest; and when these were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up by their side: for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:22 @And over the heads of the living beings there was the form of an arch, looking like ice, stretched out over their heads on high.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:23 @Under the arch their wings were straight, one stretched out to another: every one had two wings covering their bodies on this side and two covering their bodies on that side.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:25 @And there was a voice from the top of the arch which was over their heads: when they came to rest they let down their wings.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:27 @And I saw it coloured like electrum, with the look of fire in it and round it, going up from what seemed to be the middle of his body; and going down from what seemed to be the middle of his body I saw what was like fire, and there was a bright light shining round him.

bbe@Ezekiel:2:3 @And he said to me, Son of man, I am sending you to the children of Israel, to an uncontrolled nation which has gone against me: they and their fathers have been sinners against me even to this very day.

bbe@Ezekiel:2:5 @And they, if they give ear to you or if they do not give ear (for they are an uncontrolled people), will see that there has been a prophet among them.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:13 @And there was the sound of the wings of the living beings touching one another, and the sound of the wheels at their side, the sound of a great rushing.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:20 @Again, when an upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, and I put a cause of falling in his way, death will overtake him: because you have given him no word of his danger, death will overtake him in his evil-doing, and there will be no memory of the upright acts which he has done; but I will make you responsible for his blood.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:22 @And the hand of the Lord was on me there; and he said, Get up and go out into the valley and there I will have talk with you.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:23 @Then I got up and went out into the valley; and I saw the glory of the Lord resting there as I had seen it by the river Chebar; and I went down on my face.

bbe@Ezekiel:4:7 @And let your face be turned to where Jerusalem is shut in, with your arm uncovered, and be a prophet against it.

bbe@Ezekiel:4:8 @And see, I will put bands on you; and you will be stretched out without turning from one side to the other till the days of your attack are ended.

bbe@Ezekiel:4:13 @And the Lord said, Even so the children of Israel will have unclean bread for their food among the nations where I am driving them.

bbe@Ezekiel:4:16 @And he said to me, Son of man, see, I will take away from Jerusalem her necessary bread: they will take their bread by weight and with care, measuring out their drinking-water with fear and wonder:

bbe@Ezekiel:4:17 @So that they may be in need of bread and water and be wondering at one another, wasting away in their sin.

bbe@Ezekiel:5:5 @This is what the Lord has said: This is Jerusalem: I have put her among the nations, and countries are round her on every side;

bbe@Ezekiel:5:6 @And she has gone against my orders by doing evil more than the nations, and against my rules more than the countries round her: for they have given up my orders, and as for my rules, they have not gone in the way of them.

bbe@Ezekiel:5:10 @For this cause fathers will take their sons for food among you, and sons will make a meal of their fathers; and I will be judge among you, and all the rest of you I will send away to every wind.

bbe@Ezekiel:5:16 @When I send on you the evil arrows of disease, causing destruction, which I will send to put an end to you; and, further, I will take away your necessary food.

bbe@Ezekiel:6:9 @And those of you who are kept safe will have me in mind among the nations where they have been taken away as prisoners, how I sent punishment on their hearts which were untrue to me, and on their eyes which were turned to their false gods: and they will be full of hate for themselves because of the evil things which they have done in all their disgusting ways.

bbe@Ezekiel:6:13 @And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when their dead men are stretched among their images round about their altars on every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, and under every branching tree, and under every thick oak-tree, the places where they made sweet smells to all their images.

bbe@Ezekiel:7:25 @Shaking fear is coming; and they will be looking for peace, and there will be no peace.

bbe@Ezekiel:7:26 @Destruction will come on destruction, and one story after another; and the vision of the prophet will be shamed, and knowledge of the law will come to an end among the priests, and wisdom among the old.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:1 @Now in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, when I was in my house and the responsible men of Judah were seated before me, the hand of the Lord came on me there.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:2 @And looking, I saw a form like fire; from the middle of his body and down there was fire: and up from the middle of his body a sort of shining, like electrum.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:3 @And he put out the form of a hand and took me by the hair of my head; and the wind, lifting me up between the earth and the heaven, took me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the way into the inner door facing to the north; where was the seat of the image of envy.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:4 @And I saw the glory of the Lord there, as in the vision which I saw in the valley.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:6 @And he said to me, Son of man, do you see what they are doing? even the very disgusting things which the children of Israel are doing here, causing me to go far away from my holy place? but you will see other most disgusting things.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:9 @And he said to me, Go in and see the evil and disgusting things which they are doing here.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:10 @So I went in and saw; and there every sort of living thing which goes flat on the earth, and unclean beasts, and all the images of the children of Israel, were pictured round about on the wall.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:14 @Then he took me to the door of the way into the Lord's house looking to the north; and there women were seated weeping for Tammuz.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:16 @And he took me into the inner square of the Lord's house, and at the door of the Temple of the Lord, between the covered way and the altar, there were about twenty-five men with their backs turned to the Temple of the Lord and their faces turned to the east; and they were worshipping the sun, turning to the east.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:17 @Then he said to me, Have you seen this, O son of man? is it a small thing to the children of Judah that they do the disgusting things which they are doing here? for they have made the land full of violent behaviour, making me angry again and again: and see, they put the branch to my nose.

bbe@Ezekiel:9:2 @And six men came from the way of the higher doorway looking to the north, every man with his axe in his hand: and one man among them was clothed in linen, with a writer's inkpot at his side. And they went in and took their places by the brass altar.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:1 @Then looking, I saw that on the arch which was over the head of the winged ones there was seen over them what seemed like a sapphire stone, having the form of a king's seat.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:9 @And looking, I saw four wheels by the side of the winged ones, one wheel by the side of a winged one and another wheel by the side of another: and the wheels were like the colour of a beryl stone to the eye

bbe@Ezekiel:11:9 @I will make you come out from inside the town and will give you up into the hands of men from other lands, and will be judge among you.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:15 @Son of man, your countrymen, your relations, and all the children of Israel, all of them, are those to whom the people of Jerusalem have said, Go far from the Lord; this land is given to us for a heritage:

bbe@Ezekiel:11:16 @For this reason say, This is what the Lord has said: Though I have had them moved far off among the nations, and though I have sent them wandering among the countries, still I have been a safe place for them for a little time in the countries where they have come.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:17 @Then say, This is what the Lord has said: I will get you together from the peoples, and make you come out of the countries where you have been sent in flight, and I will give you the land of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:18 @And they will come there, and take away all the hated and disgusting things from it.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:3 @And you, O son of man, by day, before their eyes, get ready the vessels of one who is taken away, and go away from your place to another place before their eyes: it may be that they will see, though they are an uncontrolled people.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:13 @And my net will be stretched out on him, and he will be taken in my cords: and I will take him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldaeans; but he will not see it, and there death will come to him

bbe@Ezekiel:12:16 @But a small number of them I will keep from the sword, from the need of food, and from disease, so that they may make clear all their disgusting ways among the nations where they come; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:24 @For there will be no more false visions or smooth use of secret arts in Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:10 @Because, even because they have been guiding my people into error, saying, Peace; when there is no peace; and in the building of a division wall they put whitewash on it:

bbe@Ezekiel:13:11 @Say to those who put whitewash on it, There will be an overflowing shower; and you, O ice-drops, will come raining down; and it will be broken in two by the storm-wind.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:12 @And when the wall has come down, will they not say to you, Where is the whitewash which you put on it?

bbe@Ezekiel:13:13 @For this reason, the Lord has said: I will have it broken in two by a storm-wind in my passion; and there will be an overflowing shower in my wrath, and you, O ice-drops, will come raining angrily down.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:15 @So I will let loose my passion on the wall in full measure, and on those who put whitewash on it; and I will say to you, Where is the wall, and where are those who put whitewash on it?

bbe@Ezekiel:13:16 @Even the prophets of Israel who say words to Jerusalem, who see visions of peace for her when there is no peace, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:19 @And you have put me to shame among my people for a little barley and some bits of bread, sending death on souls for whom there is no cause of death, and keeping those souls living who have no right to life, by the false words you say to my people who give ear to what is false.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:7 @When any one of the men of Israel, or of those from other lands who are living in Israel, who has become strange to me, and takes his false gods into his heart, and puts before his face the sin which is the cause of his fall, comes to the prophet to get directions from me; I the Lord will give him an answer by myself:

bbe@Ezekiel:14:22 @But truly, there will still be a small band who will be safe, even sons and daughters: and they will come out to you, and you will see their ways and their doings: and you will be comforted about the evil which I have sent on Jerusalem, even about everything I have sent on it.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:2 @Son of man, make clear to Jerusalem her disgusting ways,

bbe@Ezekiel:16:3 @And say, This is what the Lord has said to Jerusalem: Your start and your birth was from the land of the Canaanite; an Amorite was your father and your mother was a Hittite.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:10 @And I had you clothed with needlework, and put leather shoes on your feet, folding fair linen about you and covering you with silk.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:31 @For you have made your arched room at the top of every street, and your high place in every open place; though you were not like a loose woman in getting together your payment.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:32 @The untrue wife who takes strange lovers in place of her husband!

bbe@Ezekiel:16:34 @And in your loose behaviour you are different from other women, for no one goes after you to make love to you: and because you give payment and no payment is given to you, in this you are different from them.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:37 @For this cause I will get together all your lovers with whom you have taken your pleasure, and all those to whom you have given your love, with all those who were hated by you; I will even make them come together against you on every side, and I will have you uncovered before them so that they may see your shame.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:40 @And they will get together a meeting against you, stoning you with stones and wounding you with their swords.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:44 @See, in every common saying about you it will be said, As the mother is, so is her daughter.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:45 @You are the daughter of your mother whose soul is turned in disgust from her husband and her children; and you are the sister of your sisters who were turned in disgust from their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:46 @Your older sister is Samaria, living at your left hand, she and her daughters: and your younger sister, living at your right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:48 @By my life, says the Lord, Sodom your sister never did, she or her daughters, what you and your daughters have done.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:49 @Truly, this was the sin of your sister Sodom: pride, a full measure of food, and the comforts of wealth in peace, were seen in her and her daughters, and she gave no help to the poor or to those in need.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:53 @And I will let their fate be changed, the fate of Sodom and her daughters, and the fate of Samaria and her daughters, and your fate with theirs.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:55 @And your sisters, Sodom and her daughters, will go back to their first condition, and Samaria and her daughters will go back to their first condition, and you and your daughters will go back to your first condition.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:57 @Before your shame was uncovered? Now you have become like her a word of shame to the daughters of Edom and all who are round about you, the daughters of the Philistines who put shame on you round about.

bbe@Ezekiel:17:3 @And say, This is what the Lord has said: A great eagle with great wings, full of long feathers of different colours, came to Lebanon, and took the top of the cedar:

bbe@Ezekiel:17:7 @And there was another eagle with great wings and thick feathers: and now this vine, pushing out its roots to him, sent out its branches in his direction from the bed where it was planted, so that he might give it water.

bbe@Ezekiel:17:10 @And if it is planted will it do well? will it not become quite dry at the touch of the east wind, drying up in the bed where it was planted?

bbe@Ezekiel:17:20 @My net will be stretched out over him, and he will be taken in my cords, and I will send him to Babylon, and there I will be his judge for the wrong which he has done against me.

bbe@Ezekiel:17:22 @This is what the Lord has said: Further, I will take the highest top of the cedar and put it in the earth; cutting off from the highest of his young branches a soft one, I will have it planted on a high and great mountain;

bbe@Ezekiel:18:2 @Why do you make use of this saying about the land of Israel, The fathers have been tasting bitter grapes and the children's teeth are on edge?

bbe@Ezekiel:18:4 @See, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so the soul of the son is mine: death will be the fate of the sinner's soul.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:14 @Now if he has a son who sees all his father's sins which he has done, and in fear does not do the same:

bbe@Ezekiel:18:17 @Who has kept his hand from evil-doing and has not taken interest or great profits, who has done my orders and been guided by my rules: he will certainly not be put to death for the evil-doing of his father; life will certainly be his.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:18 @As for his father, because he was cruel, took goods by force, and did what is not good among his people, truly, death will overtake him in his evil-doing.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:19 @But you say, Why does not the son undergo punishment for the evil-doing of the father? When the son has done what is ordered and right, and has kept my rules and done them, life will certainly be his.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:20 @The soul which does sin will be put to death: the son will not be made responsible for the evil-doing of the father, or the father for the evil-doing of the son; the righteousness of the upright will be on himself, and the evil-doing of the evil-doer on himself.

bbe@Ezekiel:19:2 @What was your mother? Like a she-lion among lions, stretched out among the young lions she gave food to her little ones.

bbe@Ezekiel:19:3 @And one of her little ones came to growth under her care, and became a young lion, learning to go after beasts for his food; and he took men for his meat.

bbe@Ezekiel:19:5 @Now when she saw that her hope was made foolish and gone, she took another of her little ones and made him into a young lion.

bbe@Ezekiel:19:10 @Your mother was in comparison like a vine, planted by the waters: she was fertile and full of branches because of the great waters

bbe@Ezekiel:19:12 @But she was uprooted in burning wrath, and made low on the earth; the east wind came, drying her up, and her branches were broken off; her strong rod became dry, the fire made a meal of it.

bbe@Ezekiel:19:14 @And fire has gone out from her rod, causing the destruction of her branches, so that there is no strong rod in her to be the ruler's rod of authority. This is a song of grief, and it was for a song of grief.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:4 @Will you be their judge, O son of man, will you be their judge? make clear to them the disgusting ways of their fathers,

bbe@Ezekiel:20:12 @And further, I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, so that it might be clear that I, who make them holy, am the Lord

bbe@Ezekiel:20:15 @And further, I gave my oath to them in the waste land, that I would not take them into the land which I had given them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the glory of all lands;

bbe@Ezekiel:20:18 @And I said to their children in the waste land, Do not be guided by the rules of your fathers or keep their orders or make yourselves unclean with their images:

bbe@Ezekiel:20:23 @Further, I gave my oath to them in the waste land that I would send them wandering among the nations, driving them out among the countries;

bbe@Ezekiel:20:24 @Because they had not done my orders, but had been turned away from my rules, and had not given respect to my Sabbaths, and their eyes were turned to the images of their fathers.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:25 @And further, I gave them rules which were not good and orders in which there was no life for them;

bbe@Ezekiel:20:27 @For this cause, son of man, say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: In this your fathers have further put shame on my name by doing wrong against me.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:28 @For when I had taken them into the land which I made an oath to give to them, then they saw every high hill and every branching tree and made their offerings there, moving me to wrath by their offerings; and there the sweet smell of their offerings went up and their drink offerings were drained out.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:29 @Then I said to them, What is this high place where you go to no purpose? And it is named Bamah to this day.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:30 @For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Are you making yourselves unclean as your fathers did? are you being untrue to me by going after their disgusting works?

bbe@Ezekiel:20:34 @And I will take you out from the peoples and get you together out of the countries where you are wandering, with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm and with burning wrath let loose:

bbe@Ezekiel:20:35 @And I will take you into the waste land of the peoples, and there I will take up the cause with you face to face.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:36 @As I took up the cause with your fathers in the waste land of the land of Egypt, so will I take up the cause with you says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:38 @Clearing out from among you all those who are uncontrolled and who are sinning against me; I will take them out of the land where they are living, but they will not come into the land of Israel: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:40 @For in my holy mountain, in the high mountain of Israel, says the Lord, there all the children of Israel, all of them, will be my servants in the land; there I will take pleasure in them, and there I will be worshipped with your offerings and the first-fruits of the things you give, and with all your holy things.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:41 @I will take pleasure in you as in a sweet smell, when I take you out from the peoples and get you together from the countries where you have been sent in flight; and I will make myself holy in you before the eyes of the nations.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:42 @And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when I take you into the land of Israel, into the country which I made an oath to give to your fathers.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:43 @And there, at the memory of your ways and of all the things you did to make yourselves unclean, you will have bitter hate for yourselves because of all the evil things you have done.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:2 @Son of man, let your face be turned to Jerusalem, let your words be dropped in the direction of her holy place, and be a prophet against the land of Israel;

bbe@Ezekiel:21:11 @And I have given it to the polisher so that it may be taken in the hand: he has made the sword sharp, he has had it polished, to put it into the hand of him who gives death.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:14 @So then, son of man, be a prophet, and put your hands together with a loud sound, and give two blows with the sword, and even three; it is the sword of those who are wounded, even the sword of the wounded; the great sword which goes round about them

bbe@Ezekiel:21:16 @Be pointed to the right, to the left, wherever your edge is ordered.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:17 @And I will put my hands together with a loud sound, and I will let my wrath have rest: I the Lord have said it.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:19 @And you, son of man, have two ways marked out, so that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; let the two of them come out of one land: and let there be a pillar at the top of the road:

bbe@Ezekiel:21:20 @Put a pillar at the top of the road for the sword to come to Rabbah in the land of the children of Ammon, and to Judah and to Jerusalem in the middle of her.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:30 @Go back into your cover. In the place where you were made, in the land from which you were taken, I will be your judge.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:32 @You will be food for the fire; your blood will be drained out in the land; there will be no more memory of you: for I the Lord have said it.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:2 @And you, son of man, will you be a judge, will you be a judge of the town of blood? then make clear to her all her disgusting ways.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:3 @And you are to say, This is what the Lord has said: A town causing blood to be drained out in her streets so that her time may come, and making images in her to make her unclean!

bbe@Ezekiel:22:7 @In you they have had no respect for father and mother; in you they have been cruel to the man from a strange land; in you they have done wrong to the child without a father and to the widow.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:9 @In you there are men who say evil of others, causing death; in you they have taken the flesh with the blood for food; in your streets they have put evil designs into effect.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:10 @In you they have let the shame of their fathers be seen; in you they have done wrong to a woman at the time when she was unclean.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:11 @And in you one man has done what was disgusting with his neighbour's wife; and another has made his daughter-in-law unclean; and another has done wrong to his sister, his father's daughter.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:13 @See, then, I have made my hands come together in wrath against your taking of goods by force and against the blood which has been flowing in you.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:19 @For this cause the Lord has said: Because you have all become waste metal, see, I will get you together inside Jerusalem.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:20 @As they put silver and brass and iron and lead and tin together inside the oven, heating up the fire on it to make it soft; so will I get you together in my wrath and in my passion, and, heating the fire with my breath, will make you soft.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:24 @Son of man, say to her, You are a land on which no rain or thunderstorm has come in the day of wrath.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:25 @Her rulers in her are like a loud-voiced lion violently taking his food; they have made a meal of souls; they have taken wealth and valued property; they have made great the number of widows in her.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:26 @Her priests have been acting violently against my law; they have made my holy things unclean: they have made no division between what is holy and what is common, and they have not made it clear that the unclean is different from the clean, and their eyes have been shut to my Sabbaths, and I am not honoured among them.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:27 @Her rulers in her are like wolves violently taking their food; putting men to death and causing the destruction of souls, so that they may get their profit.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:28 @And her prophets have been using whitewash, seeing foolish visions and making false use of secret arts, saying, This is what the Lord has said, when the Lord has said nothing.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:30 @And I was looking for a man among them who would make up the wall and take his station in the broken place before me for the land, so that I might not send destruction on it: but there was no one.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:2 @Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother:

bbe@Ezekiel:23:3 @They were acting like loose women in Egypt; when they were young their behaviour was loose: there their breasts were crushed, even the points of their young breasts were crushed.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:4 @Their names were Oholah, the older, and Oholibah, her sister: and they became mine, and gave birth to sons and daughters. As for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem, Oholibah.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:5 @And Oholah was untrue to me when she was mine; she was full of desire for her lovers, even for the Assyrians, her neighbours,

bbe@Ezekiel:23:7 @And she gave her unclean love to them, all of them the noblest men of Assyria: and she made herself unclean with the images of all who were desired by her.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:8 @And she has not given up her loose ways from the time when she was in Egypt; for when she was young they were her lovers, and by them her young breasts were crushed, and they let loose on her their unclean desire.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:9 @For this cause I gave her up into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the Assyrians on whom her desire was fixed.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:10 @By these her shame was uncovered: they took her sons and daughters and put her to death with the sword: and she became a cause of wonder to women; for they gave her the punishment which was right.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:11 @And her sister Oholibah saw this, but her desire was even more unmeasured, and her loose behaviour was worse than that of her sister.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:12 @She was full of desire for the Assyrians, captains and rulers, her neighbours, clothed in blue, horsemen going on horses, all of them young men to be desired.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:14 @And her loose behaviour became worse; for she saw men pictured on a wall, pictures of the Chaldaeans painted in bright red,

bbe@Ezekiel:23:17 @And the Babylonians came to her, into the bed of love, and made her unclean with their loose desire, and she became unclean with them, and her soul was turned from them.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:18 @So her loose behaviour was clearly seen and her shame uncovered: then my soul was turned from her as it had been turned from her sister

bbe@Ezekiel:23:19 @But still she went on the more with her loose behaviour, keeping in mind the early days when she had been a loose woman in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:20 @And she was full of desire for her lovers, whose flesh is like the flesh of asses and whose seed is like the seed of horses.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:21 @And she made the memory of the loose ways of her early years come back to mind, when her young breasts were crushed by the Egyptians.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:23 @The Babylonians and all the Chaldaeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them: young men to be desired, captains and rulers all of them, and chiefs, her neighbours, all of them on horseback.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:31 @You have gone in the way of your sister; and I will give her cup into your hand.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:36 @Then the Lord said to me: Son of man, will you be the judge of Oholibah? then make clear to her the disgusting things she has done.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:37 @For she has been false to me, and blood is on her hands, and with her images she has been untrue; and more than this, she made her sons, whom she had by me, go through the fire to them to be burned up.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:38 @Further, this is what she has done to me: she has made my holy place unclean and has made my Sabbaths unclean.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:39 @For when she had made an offering of her children to her images, she came into my holy place to make it unclean; see, this is what she has done inside my house.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:40 @And she even sent for men to come from far away, to whom a servant was sent, and they came: for whom she was washing her body and painting her eyes and making herself fair with ornaments.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:41 @And she took her seat on a great bed, with a table put ready before it on which she put my perfume and my oil.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:42 @... and they put jewels on her hands and beautiful crowns on her head.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:43 @Then I said... now she will go on with her loose ways.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:44 @And they went in to her, as men go to a loose woman: so they went in to Oholibah, the loose woman.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:45 @And upright men will be her judges, judging her as false wives and women who take lives are judged; because she has been untrue to me and blood is on her hands.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:46 @For this is what the Lord has said: I will make a great meeting of the people come together against her, and will send on her shaking fear and take everything from her.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:47 @And the meeting, after stoning her with stones, will put an end to her with their swords; they will put her sons and daughters to death and have her house burned up with fire.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:4 @And get the bits together, the fat tail, every good part, the leg and the top part of it: make it full of the best bones.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:7 @For her blood is in her; she has put it on the open rock not draining it on to the earth so that it might be covered with dust;

bbe@Ezekiel:24:8 @In order that it might make wrath come up to give punishment, she has put her blood on the open rock, so that it may not be covered.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:11 @And I will put her on the coals so that she may be heated and her brass burned, so that what is unclean in her may become soft and her waste be completely taken away.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:12 @I have made myself tired to no purpose: still all the waste which is in her has not come out, it has an evil smell.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:16 @Son of man, see, I am taking away the desire of your eyes by disease: but let there be no sorrow or weeping or drops running from your eyes.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:17 @Let there be no sound of sorrow; make no weeping for your dead, put on your head-dress and your shoes on your feet, let not your lips be covered, and do not take the food of those in grief.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:21 @Say to the people of Israel, The Lord has said, See, I will make my holy place unclean, the pride of your strength, the pleasure of your eyes, and the desire of your soul; and your sons and daughters, who did not come with you here, will be put to the sword.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:23 @And your head-dresses will be on your heads and your shoes on your feet: there will be no sorrow or weeping; but you will be wasting away in the punishment of your evil-doing, and you will be looking at one another in wonder.

bbe@Ezekiel:25:4 @For this cause I will give you up to the children of the east for their heritage, and they will put their tent-circles in you and make their houses in you; they will take your fruit for their food and your milk for their drink.

bbe@Ezekiel:25:10 @To the children of the east I have given her for a heritage, as well as the children of Ammon, so that there may be no memory of her among the nations:

bbe@Ezekiel:25:16 @The Lord has said, See, my hand will be stretched out against the Philistines, cutting off the Cherethites and sending destruction on the rest of the sea-land.

bbe@Ezekiel:26:4 @And they will give the walls of Tyre to destruction and have its towers broken: and I will take even her dust away from her, and make her an uncovered rock

bbe@Ezekiel:26:5 @She will be a place for the stretching out of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have said it, says the Lord: and her goods will be given over to the nations.

bbe@Ezekiel:26:6 @And her daughters in the open country will be put to the sword: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:26:14 @I will make you an uncovered rock: you will be a place for the stretching out of nets; there will be no building you up again: for I the Lord have said it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:26:17 @And they will send up a song of grief for you, and say to you, What destruction has come on you, how are you cut off from the sea, the noted town, which was strong in the sea, she and her people, causing the fear of them to come on all the dry land!

bbe@Ezekiel:26:20 @Then I will make you go down with those who go down into the underworld, to the people of the past, causing your living-place to be in the deepest parts of the earth, in places long unpeopled, with those who go down into the deep, so that there will be no one living in you; and you will have no glory in the land of the living.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:27 @Your wealth and your goods, the things in which you do trade, your seamen and those guiding your ships, those who make your boards watertight, and those who do business with your goods, and all your men of war who are in you, with all who have come together in you, will go down into the heart of the seas in the day of your downfall.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:3 @See, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret which is deeper than your knowledge:

bbe@Ezekiel:28:15 @There has been no evil in your ways from the day when you were made, till sin was seen in you

bbe@Ezekiel:28:22 @These are the words of the Lord: See, I am against you, O Zidon; and I will get glory for myself in you: and they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I send my punishments on her, and I will be seen to be holy in her.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:23 @And I will send on her disease and blood in her streets; and the wounded will be falling in the middle of her, and the sword will be against her on every side; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:24 @And there will no longer be a plant with sharp points wounding the children of Israel, or a thorn troubling them among any who are round about them, who put shame on them; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:25 @This is what the Lord has said: When I have got together the children of Israel from the peoples among whom they are wandering, and have been made holy among them before the eyes of the nations, then they will have rest in the land which is theirs, which I gave to my servant Jacob

bbe@Ezekiel:28:26 @And they will be safe there, building houses and planting vine-gardens and living without fear; when I have sent my punishments on all those who put shame on them round about them; and they will be certain that I am the Lord their God.

bbe@Ezekiel:29:12 @I will make the land of Egypt a waste among the countries which are made waste, and her towns will be unpeopled among the towns which have been made waste, for forty years: and I will send the Egyptians in flight among the nations and wandering through the countries.

bbe@Ezekiel:29:13 @For this is what the Lord has said: At the end of forty years I will get the Egyptians together from the peoples where they have gone in flight:

bbe@Ezekiel:29:14 @I will let the fate of Egypt be changed, and will make them come back into the land of Pathros, into the land from which they came; and there they will be an unimportant kingdom.

bbe@Ezekiel:29:19 @For this cause the Lord has said: See, I am giving the land of Egypt to Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon: he will take away her wealth, and take her goods by force and everything which is there; and this will be the payment for his army.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:4 @And a sword will come on Egypt, and cruel pain will be in Ethiopia, when they are falling by the sword in Egypt; and they will take away her wealth and her bases will be broken down.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:5 @Ethiopia and Put and Lud and all the mixed people and Libya and the children of the land of the Cherethites will all be put to death with them by the sword.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:6 @This is what the Lord has said: The supporters of Egypt will have a fall, and the pride of her power will come down: from Migdol to Syene they will be put to the sword in it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:7 @And she will be made waste among the countries which have been made waste, and her towns will be among the towns which are unpeopled.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:8 @And they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I have put a fire in Egypt and all her helpers are broken.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:13 @This is what the Lord has said: In addition to this, I will give up the images to destruction and put an end to the false gods in Noph; never again will there be a ruler in the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:18 @And at Tehaphnehes the day will become dark, when the yoke of Egypt is broken there, and the pride of her power comes to an end: as for her, she will be covered with a cloud, and her daughters will be taken away prisoners.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:13 @All the birds of heaven have come to rest on his broken stem where it is stretched on the earth, and all the beasts of the field will be on his branches:

bbe@Ezekiel:31:15 @This is what the Lord has said: The day when he goes down to the underworld, I will make the deep full of grief for him; I will keep back her streams and the great waters will be stopped: I will make Lebanon dark for him, and all the trees of the field will be feeble because of him.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:18 @Whom then are you like? for you will be sent down with the trees of Eden into the lowest parts of the earth: there you will be stretched out among those without circumcision, with those who were put to the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his people, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:7 @And when I put out your life, the heaven will be covered and its stars made dark; I will let the sun be covered with a cloud and the moon will not give her light.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:13 @And I will put an end to all her beasts which are by the great waters, and they will never again be troubled by the foot of man or by the feet of beasts.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:16 @It is a song of grief, and people will give voice to it, the daughters of the nations will give voice to it, even for Egypt and all her people, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:22 @There is Asshur and all her army, round about her last resting-place: all of them put to death by the sword:

bbe@Ezekiel:32:24 @There is Elam and all her people, round about her last resting-place: all of them put to death by the sword, who have gone down without circumcision into the lowest parts of the earth, who were a cause of fear in the land of the living, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld:

bbe@Ezekiel:32:25 @They have made a bed for her among the dead, and all her people are round about her resting-place: all of them without circumcision, put to death with the sword; for they were a cause of fear in the land of the living, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld: they have been given a place among those who have been put to the sword.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:26 @There is Meshech, Tubal, and all her people, round about her last resting-place: all of them without circumcision, put to death by the sword; for they were a cause of fear in the land of the living.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:29 @There is Edom, her kings and all her princes, who have been given a resting-place with those who were put to the sword: they will be resting among those without circumcision, even with those who go down to the underworld.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:30 @There are the chiefs of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, who have gone down with those who have been put to the sword: they are shamed on account of all the fear caused by their strength; they are resting there without circumcision, among those who have been put to the sword, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:24 @Son of man, those who are living in these waste places in the land of Israel say, Abraham was but one, and he had land for his heritage: but we are a great number; the land is given to us for our heritage.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:25 @For this cause say to them, This is what the Lord has said: You take your meat with the blood, your eyes are lifted up to your images, and you are takers of life: are you to have the land for your heritage?

bbe@Ezekiel:33:26 @You put your faith in your swords, you do disgusting things, everyone takes his neighbour's wife: are you to have the land for your heritage?

bbe@Ezekiel:33:28 @And I will make the land a waste and a cause of wonder, and the pride of her strength will come to an end; and the mountains of Israel will be made waste so that no one will go through.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:30 @And as for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking together about you by the walls and in the doorways of the houses, saying to one another, Come now, give ear to the word which comes from the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:5 @And they were wandering in every direction because there was no keeper: and they became food for all the beasts of the field.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:6 @And my sheep went out of the way, wandering through all the mountains and on every high hill: my sheep went here and there over all the face of the earth; and no one was troubled about them or went in search of them.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:8 @By my life, says the Lord, truly, because my sheep have been taken away, and my sheep became food for all the beasts of the field, because there was no keeper, and my keepers did not go in search of the sheep, but the keepers took food for themselves and gave my sheep no food;

bbe@Ezekiel:34:12 @As the keeper goes looking for his flock when he is among his wandering sheep, so I will go looking for my sheep, and will get them safely out of all the places where they have been sent wandering in the day of clouds and black night.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:13 @And I will take them out from among the peoples, and get them together from the countries, and will take them into their land; and I will give them food on the mountains of Israel by the water-streams and wherever men are living in the country.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:14 @I will give them good grass-land for their food, and their safe place will be the mountains of the high place of Israel: there they will take their rest in a good place, and on fat grass-land they will take their food on the mountains of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:26 @And I will give the rain at the right time, and I will make the shower come down at the right time; there will be showers of blessing.

bbe@Ezekiel:35:10 @Because you have said, The two nations and the two countries are to be mine, and we will take them for our heritage; though the Lord was there:

bbe@Ezekiel:35:12 @And you will see that I the Lord have had knowledge of all the bitter things which you have said against the mountains of Israel, saying, They have been made waste, they are given to us to take for our heritage.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:2 @This is what the Lord has said: Because your hater has said against you, Aha! and, The old waste places are our heritage, we have taken them:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:3 @For this cause be a prophet, and say, This is what the Lord has said: Because, even because they have been glad over you and put you to shame on every side, because you have become a heritage for the rest of the nations, and you are taken up on the lips of talkers and in the evil talk of the people:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:4 @For this reason, you mountains of Israel, give ear to the word of the Lord; this is what the Lord has said to the mountains and to the hills, to the streams and to the valleys, to the unpeopled wastes and to the towns where no one is living, from which the goods have been taken and which have been put to shame by the rest of the nations who are round about:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:5 @For this cause the Lord has said: Truly, in the heat of my bitter feeling I have said things against the rest of the nations and against all Edom, who have taken my land as a heritage for themselves with the joy of all their heart, and with bitter envy of soul have made attacks on it:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:12 @Yes, I will have you walked on by the feet of men, even my people Israel; they will have you for a heritage and you will be theirs, and never again will you take their children from them.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:20 @And when they came among the nations, wherever they went, they made my holy name unclean, when it was said of them, These are the people of the Lord who have gone out from his land.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:21 @But I had pity for my holy name which the children of Israel had made unclean wherever they went.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:22 @For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: I am doing this, not because of you, O children of Israel, but because of my holy name, which you have made unclean among the nations wherever you went.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:24 @For I will take you out from among the nations, and get you together from all the countries, and take you into your land.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:28 @So that you may go on living in the land which I gave to your fathers; and you will be to me a people, and I will be to you a God.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:33 @This is what the Lord has said: In the day when I make you clean from all your evil-doings I will let the towns be peopled and there will be building on the waste places.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:38 @Like sheep for the offerings, like the sheep of Jerusalem at her fixed feasts, so the unpeopled towns will be made full of men: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:2 @And he made me go past them round about: and I saw that there was a very great number of them on the face of the wide valley, and they were very dry.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:7 @So I gave the word as I was ordered: and at my words there was a shaking of the earth, and the bones came together, bone to bone.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:8 @And looking I saw that there were muscles on them and flesh came up, and they were covered with skin: but there was no breath in them.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:16 @And you, son of man, take one stick, writing on it, For Judah and for the children of Israel who are in his company: then take another stick, writing on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel who are in his company:

bbe@Ezekiel:37:17 @Then, joining them one to another, make them one stick, so that they may be one in your hand.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:21 @And say to them, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am taking the children of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and will get them together on every side, and take them into their land:

bbe@Ezekiel:37:25 @And they will be living in the land which I gave to Jacob, my servant, in which your fathers were living; and they will go on living there, they and their children and their children's children, for ever: and David, my servant, will be their ruler for ever.

bbe@Ezekiel:38:6 @Gomer and all her forces; the people of Togarmah in the inmost parts of the north, with all his forces: a great number of peoples with you.

bbe@Ezekiel:38:8 @After a long time you will get your orders: in the last years you will come into the land which has been given back from the sword, which has been got together out of a great number of peoples, on the mountains of Israel which have ever been a waste: but it has been taken out from the peoples and they will be living, all of them, without fear of danger.

bbe@Ezekiel:38:12 @To take their property by force and go off with their goods; turning your hand against the waste places which now are peopled, and against the people who have been got together out of the nations, who have got cattle and goods for themselves, who are living in the middle of the earth.

bbe@Ezekiel:38:13 @Sheba, and Dedan and her traders, Tarshish with all her traders, will say to you, Have you come to take our goods? have you got your armies together to take away our property by force? to take away silver and gold, cattle and goods, to go off with great wealth?

bbe@Ezekiel:38:19 @For in the fire of my wrath I have said, Truly, in that day there will be a great shaking in the land of Israel;

bbe@Ezekiel:38:21 @And I will send to all my mountains for a sword against him, says the Lord: every man's sword will be against his brother.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:11 @And it will come about in those days, that I will give to Gog a last resting-place there in Israel, in the valley of Abarim on the east of the sea: and those who go through will be stopped: and there Gog and all his people will be put to rest, and the place will be named, The valley of Hamon-gog.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:14 @And they will put on one side men to do no other work but to go through the land and put in the earth the rest of those who are still on the face of the land, to make it clean: after seven months are ended they are to make a search.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:16 @And there they will put all the army of Gog in the earth. So they will make the land clean.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:17 @And you, son of man, this is what the Lord has said: Say to the birds of every sort and to all the beasts of the field, Get together and come; come together on every side to the offering which I am putting to death for you, a great offering on the mountains of Israel, so that you may have flesh for your food and blood for your drink.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:27 @When I have taken them back from among the peoples and got them together out of the lands of their haters, and have made myself holy in them before the eyes of a great number of nations.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:28 @And they will be certain that I am the Lord their God, because I sent them away as prisoners among the nations, and have taken them together back to their land; and I have not let one of them be there any longer.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:1 @In the twenty-fifth year after we had been taken away prisoners, in the first month of the year, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the town was taken, on the very same day, the hand of the Lord was on me, and he took me there.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:2 @In the visions of God he took me into the land of Israel, and put me down on a very high mountain, on which there was, as it seemed, a building like a town opposite me.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:3 @He took me there, and I saw a man, looking like brass, with a linen cord in his hand and a measuring rod: and he was stationed in the doorway.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:4 @And the man said to me, Son of man, see with your eyes and give hearing with your ears, and take to heart everything I am going to let you see; for in order that I might let you see them, you have come here: and give an account of all you see to the children of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:5 @And there was a wall on the outside of the house all round, and in the man's hand there was a measuring rod six cubits long by a cubit and a hand's measure: so he took the measure of the building from side to side, one rod; and from base to top, one rod.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:13 @And he took the measure of the doorway from the back of one room to the back of the other, twenty-five cubits across, from door to door.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:16 @And the rooms and their uprights had sloping windows inside the doorway all round, and in the same way the covered way had windows all round on the inside: and on every upright there were palm-trees.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:17 @Then he took me into the outer square, and there were rooms and a stone floor made for the open square all round: there were thirty rooms on the stone floor.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:20 @And there was a doorway to the outer square, looking to the north; and he took the measure of it to see how wide and how long it was.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:22 @And its windows, and the windows of its covered ways, and its palm-trees, were the same as those of the doorway looking to the east; and there were seven steps up to it; and the covered way went inside.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:23 @And there was a doorway to the inner square opposite the doorway on the north, like the doorway on the east; and he took the measure from doorway to doorway, a hundred cubits.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:25 @And there were windows in it and in the covered way all round, like the other windows: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:26 @And there were seven steps up to it, and its covered way went inside: and it had palm-trees, one on this side and one on that, on its uprights.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:27 @And there was a doorway to the inner square looking to the south: he took the measure from doorway to doorway to the south, a hundred cubits.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:30 @And there were windows in it and in the covered way all round: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:31 @The covered way was on the side nearest the outer square; and there were palm-trees on the uprights: and there were eight steps going up to it.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:33 @And of the rooms in it and its uprights and its covered ways, by these measures: and there were windows in it and in the covered way round about: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:34 @And the covered way was on the side nearest the outer square; there were palm-trees on the uprights, on this side and on that: and there were eight steps going up to it.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:37 @Its uprights were on the side nearest to the outer square; there were palm-trees on the uprights, on this side and on that: and there were eight steps going up to it.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:38 @And there was a room with a door in the covered way of the doorway, where the burned offering was washed.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:39 @And in the covered way of the doorway there were two tables on this side and two tables on that side, on which the burned offering and the sin-offering and the offering for error were put to death:

bbe@Ezekiel:40:41 @There were four tables on one side and four tables on the other, by the side of the doorway; eight tables, on which they put to death the beasts for the offerings.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:42 @And there were four tables for the burned offering, made of cut stone, one and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide and a cubit high, where the instruments were placed which were used for putting to death the burned offering and the beasts for the offerings.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:44 @And he took me into the inner square, and there were two rooms in the inner square, one at the side of the north doorway, facing south; and one at the side of the south doorway, facing north.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:48 @Then he took me to the covered way before the house, and took the measure of its uprights, five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other: and the doorway was fourteen cubits wide; and the side-walls of the doorway were three cubits on one side and three cubits on the other.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:49 @The covered way was twenty cubits long and twelve cubits wide, and they went up to it by ten steps; and there were pillars by the uprights, one on one side and one on the other.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:1 @And he took me to the Temple, and took the measure of the uprights, six cubits wide on one side and six cubits wide on the other.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:2 @And the door-opening was ten cubits wide; and the side walls of the door-opening were five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other: and it was forty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:3 @And he went inside and took the measure of the uprights of the door-opening, two cubits: and the door-opening, six cubits; and the side-walls of the door-opening were seven cubits on one side and seven cubits on the other.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:6 @And the side-rooms, room over room, were three times thirty; there were inlets in the wall of the house for the side-rooms round about, for supports in the wall of the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:7 @The side-rooms became wider as they went higher up the house, by the amount of the space let into the wall up round about the house, because of the inlets in the house; and one went up from the lowest floor by steps to the middle, and from the middle to the upper floor.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:9 @The wall supporting the side-rooms on the outside was five cubits thick: and there was a free space of five cubits between the side-rooms of the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:15 @And he took the measure of the building in front of the separate place which was at the back of it, and the pillared walks on one side and on the other side; they were a hundred cubits long; and the Temple and the inner part and its outer covered way were covered in;

bbe@Ezekiel:41:17 @And there was a roof over the doorway and as far as the inner house, and to the outside and on the wall all round, inside and outside.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:19 @So that there was the face of a man turned to the palm-tree on one side, and the face of a young lion on the other side: so it was made all round the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:20 @From earth level up to the windows there were winged ones and palm-trees pictured on the wall.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:24 @And the holy place had two doors, and the doors had two turning leaves, two for one and two for the other.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:26 @And there were sloping windows and palm-trees on one side and on the other, on the sides of the covered way: and the side-rooms of the house and the...

bbe@Ezekiel:42:3 @Opposite the space of twenty cubits which was part of the inner square, and opposite the stone floor of the outer square. There were covered ways facing one another on the third floor.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:5 @And the higher rooms were shorter: for the covered ways took up more space from these than from the lower and middle rooms.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:10 @(And he took me) to the south, and in front of the separate place and in front of the building there were rooms.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:11 @And there was a walk in front of them like that by the rooms on the north; they were equally long and wide; and the ways out of them were the same in design and had the same sort of doors.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:13 @And he said to me, The north rooms and the south rooms in front of the separate place are the holy rooms, where the priests who come near the Lord take the most holy things for their food: there the most holy things are placed, with the meal offering and the sin-offering and the offering for error; for the place is holy.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:14 @When the priests go in, they may not go out of the holy place into the outer square, and there they are to put the robes in which they do the work of the Lord's house, for they are holy: and they have to put on other clothing before they come near that which has to do with the people.

bbe@Ezekiel:43:2 @And there was the glory of the God of Israel coming from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of great waters, and the earth was shining with his glory.

bbe@Ezekiel:43:7 @And he said to me, Son of man, this is the place where the seat of my power is and the resting-place of my feet, where I will be among the children of Israel for ever: and no longer will the people of Israel make my holy name unclean, they or their kings, by their loose ways and by the dead bodies of their kings;

bbe@Ezekiel:44:3 @But the ruler will be seated there to take his food before the Lord; he will go in by the covered way to the door, and will come out by the same way.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:17 @And when they come in by the doorways of the inner square, they are to be clothed in linen robes; there is to be no wool on them while they are doing my work in the doorway of the inner square and inside the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:19 @And when they go out into the outer square to the people, they are to take off the robes in which they do the work of priests, and put them away in the holy rooms, and put on other clothing, so that the people may not be made holy by their robes.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:22 @And they are not to take as wives any widow or woman whose husband has put her away: but they may take virgins of the seed of Israel, or a widow who is the widow of a priest.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:25 @They are not to come near any dead person so as to become unclean: but for a father or mother or son or daughter or brother or for a sister who has no husband, they may make themselves unclean.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:28 @And they are to have no heritage; I am their heritage: you are to give them no property in Israel; I am their property.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:31 @The priests may not take for food any bird or beast which has come to a natural death or whose death has been caused by another animal.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:1 @And when you are making a distribution of the land, by the decision of the Lord, for your heritage, you are to make an offering to the Lord of a part of the land as holy: it is to be twenty-five thousand long and twenty thousand wide: all the land inside these limits is to be holy.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:3 @And of this measure, let a space be measured, twenty-five thousand long and ten thousand wide: in it there will be the holy place, even the most holy.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:7 @And for the ruler there is to be a part on one side and on the other side of the holy offering and of the property of the town, in front of the holy offering and in front of the property of the town on the west of it and on the east: measured in the same line as one of the parts of the land, from its limit on the west to its limit on the east of the land.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:8 @And this will be his heritage in Israel: and my rulers will no longer be cruel masters to my people; but they will give the land as a heritage to the children of Israel by their tribes.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:9 @This is what the Lord has said: Let this be enough for you, O rulers of Israel: let there be an end of violent behaviour and wasting; do what is right, judging uprightly; let there be no more driving out of my people, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:6 @And at the time of the new moon it is to be a young ox of the herd without a mark on him, and six lambs and a male sheep, all without a mark:

bbe@Ezekiel:46:16 @This is what the Lord has said: If the ruler gives a property to any of his sons, it is his heritage and will be the property of his sons; it is theirs for their heritage.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:17 @And if he gives a part of his heritage to one of his servants, it will be his till the year of making free, and then it will go back to the ruler; for it is his sons' heritage, and is to be theirs.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:18 @And the ruler is not to take the heritage of any of the people, driving them out of their property; he is to give a heritage to his sons out of the property which is his: so that my people may not be sent away from their property.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:20 @And he said to me, This is the place where the offering for error and the sin-offering are to be cooked in water by the priests, and where the meal offering is to be cooked in the oven; so that they may not be taken out into the outer square to make the people holy.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:21 @And he took me out into the outer square and made me go by the four angles of the square; and I saw that in every angle of the open square there was a space shut in.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:22 @In the four angles there were spaces walled in, forty cubits long and thirty wide; the four were of the same size.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:23 @And there was a line of wall all round inside them, round all four, and boiling-places were made under it all round about.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:24 @And he said to me, These are the boiling-rooms, where the offering of the people is cooked by the servants of the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:9 @And it will come about that every living and moving thing, wherever their streams come, will have life; and there will be very much fish because these waters have come there and have been made sweet: and everything wherever the river comes will have life.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:10 @And fishermen will take up their places by it: from En-gedi as far as En-eglaim will be a place for the stretching out of nets; the fish will be of every sort, like the fish of the Great Sea, a very great number.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:13 @This is what the Lord has said: These are the limits by which you will take up your heritage in the land among the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph is to have two parts.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:14 @And you are to make an equal division of it; as I gave my oath to your fathers to give it to you: for this land is to be your heritage.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:22 @And you are to make a distribution of it, by the decision of the Lord, for a heritage to you and to the men from other lands who are living among you and who have children in your land: they will be the same to you as if they were Israelites by birth, they will have their heritage with you among the tribes of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:23 @In whatever tribe the man from a strange land is living, there you are to give him his heritage, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:2 @And on the limit of Dan, from the east side to the west side: Asher, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:3 @And on the limit of Asher, from the east side to the west side: Naphtali, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:13 @And the Levites are to have a part of the land equal to the limit of the priests', twenty-five thousand long and ten thousand wide, all of it together to be twenty-five thousand long and twenty thousand wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:14 @And they are not to let any of it go for a price, or give it in exchange; and the part of the land given to the Lord is not to go into other hands: for it is holy to the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:15 @And the other five thousand, measured from side to side, in front of the twenty-five thousand, is to be for common use, for the town, for living in and for a free space: and the town will be in the middle of it.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:20 @The size of the offering all together is to be twenty-five thousand by twenty-five thousand: you are to make the holy offering a square, together with the property of the town.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:29 @This is the land of which distribution is to be made by the decision of the Lord, among the tribes of Israel for their heritage, and these are their heritages, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:34 @At the west side, four thousand five hundred by measure, with their three doors, one for Gad, one for Asher, one for Naphtali.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:35 @It is to be eighteen thousand all round: and the name of the town from that day will be, The Lord is there.

bbe@Daniel:1:6 @And among these there were, of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.

bbe@Daniel:1:10 @And the captain of the unsexed servants said to Daniel, I am in fear of my lord the king, who has given orders about your food and your drink; what if he sees you looking less happy than the other young men of your generation? then you would have put my head in danger from the king.

bbe@Daniel:1:19 @And the king had talk with them; and among them all there was no one like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah; so they were given places before the king.

bbe@Daniel:2:9 @That if you do not make my dream clear to me there is only one fate for you: for you have made ready false and evil words to say before me till the times are changed: so give me an account of the dream, and I will be certain that you are able to make the sense of it clear.

bbe@Daniel:2:10 @Then the Chaldaeans said to the king in answer, There is not a man on earth able to make clear the king's business; for no king, however great his power, has ever made such a request to any wonder-worker or user of secret arts or Chaldaean.

bbe@Daniel:2:11 @The king's request is a very hard one, and there is no other who is able to make it clear to the king, but the gods, whose living-place is not with flesh.

bbe@Daniel:2:23 @I give you praise and worship, O God of my fathers, who have given me wisdom and strength, and have now made clear to me what we were requesting from you: for you have given us knowledge of the king's business.

bbe@Daniel:2:25 @Then Arioch quickly took Daniel in before the king, and said to him, Here is a man from among the prisoners of Judah, who will make clear to the king the sense of the dream.

bbe@Daniel:2:28 @But there is a God in heaven, the unveiler of secrets, and he has given to King Nebuchadnezzar knowledge of what will take place in the last days. Your dreams and the visions of your head on your bed are these:

bbe@Daniel:2:31 @You, O King, were looking, and a great image was there. This image, which was very great, and whose glory was very bright, was placed before you: its form sent fear into the heart.

bbe@Daniel:2:35 @Then the iron and the earth, the brass and the silver and the gold, were smashed together, and became like the dust on the floors where grain is crushed in summer; and the wind took them away so that no sign of them was to be seen: and the stone which gave the image a blow became a great mountain, covering all the earth.

bbe@Daniel:2:38 @Wherever the children of men are living; into whose hands he has given the beasts of the field and the birds of heaven, and has made you ruler over them all, you are the head of gold.

bbe@Daniel:2:39 @And after you another kingdom, lower than you, will come to power; and a third kingdom, of brass, ruling over all the earth.

bbe@Daniel:2:41 @And as you saw the feet and toes, part of potter's work and part of iron, there will be a division in the kingdom; but there will be some of the strength of iron in it, because you saw the iron mixed with the potter's earth.

bbe@Daniel:2:43 @And as you saw the iron mixed with earth, they will give their daughters to one another as wives: but they will not be united one with another, even as iron is not mixed with earth.

bbe@Daniel:2:44 @And in the days of those kings, the God of heaven will put up a kingdom which will never come to destruction, and its power will never be given into the hands of another people, and all these kingdoms will be broken and overcome by it, but it will keep its place for ever.

bbe@Daniel:3:2 @And Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to get together all the captains, the chiefs, the rulers, the wise men, the keepers of public money, the judges, the overseers, and all the rulers of the divisions of the country, to come to see the unveiling of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had put up.

bbe@Daniel:3:3 @Then the captains, the chiefs, the rulers, the wise men, the keepers of public money, the judges, the overseers, and all the rulers of the divisions of the country, came together to see the unveiling of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had put up; and they took their places before the image which Nebuchadnezzar had put up.

bbe@Daniel:3:12 @There are certain Jews whom you have put over the business of the land of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men have not given attention to you, O King: they are not servants of your gods or worshippers of the gold image which you have put up.

bbe@Daniel:3:15 @Now if you are ready, on hearing the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe, and all sorts of instruments, to go down on your faces in worship before the image which I have made, it is well: but if you will not give worship, that same hour you will be put into a burning and flaming fire; and what god is there who will be able to take you out of my hands?

bbe@Daniel:3:16 @Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answering Nebuchadnezzar the king, said, There is no need for us to give you an answer to this question.

bbe@Daniel:3:26 @Then Nebuchadnezzar came near the door of the burning and flaming fire: he made answer and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, you servants of the Most High God, come out and come here. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego came out of the fire.

bbe@Daniel:3:27 @And the captains, the chiefs, and the rulers, and the king's wise men who had come together, saw these men, over whose bodies the fire had no power, and not a hair of their heads was burned, and their coats were not changed, and there was no smell of fire about them.

bbe@Daniel:3:28 @Nebuchadnezzar made answer and said, Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who has sent his angel and kept his servants safe who had faith in him, and who put the king's word on one side and gave up their bodies to the fire, so that they might not be servants or worshippers of any other god but their God.

bbe@Daniel:3:29 @And it is my decision that any people, nation, or language saying evil against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, will be cut to bits and their houses made waste: because there is no other god who is able to give salvation such as this.

bbe@Daniel:4:10 @On my bed I saw a vision: there was a tree in the middle of the earth, and it was very high

bbe@Daniel:4:13 @In the visions of my head on my bed I saw a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven,

bbe@Daniel:4:17 @This order is fixed by the watchers, and the decision is by the word of the holy ones: so that the living may be certain that the Most High is ruler over the kingdom of men, and gives it to any man at his pleasure, lifting up over it the lowest of men.

bbe@Daniel:4:23 @And as for the vision which the king saw of a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven, saying, Let the tree be cut down and given to destruction;

bbe@Daniel:4:33 @That very hour the order about Nebuchadnezzar was put into effect: and he was sent out from among men, and had grass for his food like the oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hair became long as eagles' feathers and his nails like those of birds.

bbe@Daniel:5:2 @Belshazzar, while he was overcome with wine, gave orders for them to put before him the gold and silver vessels which Nebuchadnezzar, his father, had taken from the Temple in Jerusalem; so that the king and his lords, his wives and his other women, might take their drink from them.

bbe@Daniel:5:3 @Then they took in the gold and silver vessels which had been in the Temple of the house of God at Jerusalem; and the king and his lords, his wives and his other women, took wine from them.

bbe@Daniel:5:11 @There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of your father, light and reason like the wisdom of the gods were seen in him: and King Nebuchadnezzar, your father, made him master of the wonder-workers, and the users of secret arts, and the Chaldaeans, and the readers of signs;

bbe@Daniel:5:13 @Then they took Daniel in before the king; the king made answer and said to Daniel, So you are that Daniel, of the prisoners of Judah, whom my father took out of Judah.

bbe@Daniel:5:17 @Then Daniel made answer and said to the king, Keep your offerings for yourself, and give your rewards to another; but I, after reading the writing to the king, will give him the sense of it.

bbe@Daniel:5:18 @As for you, O King, the Most High God gave to Nebuchadnezzar, your father, the kingdom and great power and glory and honour:

bbe@Daniel:5:19 @And because of the great power he gave him, all peoples and nations and languages were shaking in fear before him: some he put to death and others he kept living, at his pleasure, lifting up some and putting others down as it pleased him.

bbe@Daniel:6:3 @Then this Daniel did his work better than the chief rulers and the captains, because there was a special spirit in him; and it was the king's purpose to put him over all the kingdom.

bbe@Daniel:6:20 @And when he came near the hole where Daniel was, he gave a loud cry of grief; the king made answer and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, is your God, whose servant you are at all times, able to keep you safe from the lions?

bbe@Daniel:6:22 @My God has sent his angel to keep the lions' mouths shut, and they have done me no damage: because I was seen to be without sin before him; and further, before you, O King, I have done no wrong.

bbe@Daniel:7:3 @And four great beasts came up from the sea, different one from another.

bbe@Daniel:7:5 @And I saw another beast, like a bear, and it was lifted up on one side, and three side-bones were in its mouth, between its teeth: and they said to it, Up! take much flesh.

bbe@Daniel:7:6 @After this I saw another beast, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings like those of a bird; and the beast had four heads, and the power of a ruler was given to it.

bbe@Daniel:7:8 @I was watching the horns with care, and I saw another coming up among them, a little one, before which three of the first horns were pulled up by the roots: and there were eyes like a man's eyes in this horn, and a mouth saying great things.

bbe@Daniel:7:13 @I saw in visions of the night, and there was coming with the clouds of heaven one like a man, and he came to the one who was very old, and they took him near before him.

bbe@Daniel:7:16 @I came near to one of those who were waiting there, questioning him about what all this was

bbe@Daniel:7:19 @Then it was my desire to have certain knowledge about the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, a cause of great fear, whose teeth were of iron and his nails of brass; who took his food, crushing some of it to bits and stamping on the rest with his feet;

bbe@Daniel:7:20 @And about the ten horns on his head and the other which came up, causing the fall of three; that horn which had eyes, and a mouth saying great things, which seemed to be greater than the other horns.

bbe@Daniel:7:24 @And as for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will come to power; and after them another will come up: he will be different from the first ones and will put down three kings.

bbe@Daniel:7:28 @Here is the end of the account. As for me, Daniel, I was greatly troubled by my thoughts, and the colour went from my face: but I kept the thing in my heart.

bbe@Daniel:8:3 @And lifting up my eyes, I saw, there before the stream, a male sheep with two horns: and the two horns were high, but one was higher than the other, the higher one coming up last.

bbe@Daniel:8:7 @And I saw him come right up to the sheep, and he was moved with wrath against him, attacking the sheep so that his two horns were broken; and the sheep had not strength to keep his place before him, but was pushed down on the earth and crushed under his feet: and there was no one to get the sheep out of his power.

bbe@Daniel:8:8 @And the he-goat became very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken, and in its place came up four other horns turned to the four winds of heaven.

bbe@Daniel:8:9 @And out of one of them came another horn, a little one, which became very great, stretching to the south and to the east and to the beautiful land.

bbe@Daniel:8:13 @Then there came to my ears the voice of a holy one talking; and another holy one said to that certain one who was talking, How long will the vision be while the regular burned offering is taken away, and the unclean thing causing fear is put up, and the holy place crushed under foot?

bbe@Daniel:8:17 @So he came and took his place near where I was; and when he came, I was full of fear and went down on my face: but he said to me, Let it be clear to you, O son of man; for the vision has to do with the time of the end.

bbe@Daniel:8:18 @Now while he was talking to me, I went into a deep sleep with my face to the earth: but touching me, he put me on my feet where I had been

bbe@Daniel:8:23 @And in the later years of their kingdom, when their evil doings have become complete, there will come up a king full of pride and expert in dark sayings.

bbe@Daniel:9:6 @We have not given ear to your servants the prophets, who said words in your name to our kings and our rulers and our fathers and all the people of the land.

bbe@Daniel:9:7 @O Lord, righteousness is yours, but shame is on us, even to this day; and on the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, and on all Israel, those who are near and those who are far off, in all the countries where you have sent them because of the sin which they have done against you.

bbe@Daniel:9:8 @O Lord, shame is on us, on our kings and our rulers and our fathers, because of our sin against you.

bbe@Daniel:9:12 @And he has given effect to his words which he said against us and against those who were our judges, by sending a great evil on us: for under all heaven there has not been done what has been done to Jerusalem.

bbe@Daniel:9:16 @O Lord, because of your righteousness, let your wrath and your passion be turned away from your town Jerusalem, your holy mountain: because, through our sins and the evil-doing of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a cause of shame to all who are round about us.

bbe@Daniel:9:19 @O Lord, give ear; O Lord, have forgiveness; O Lord, take note and do; let there be no more waiting; for the honour of your name, O my God, because your town and your people are named by your name.

bbe@Daniel:9:26 @And at the end of the times, even after the sixty-two weeks, one on whom the holy oil has been put will be cut off and have no...; and the town and the holy place will be made waste together with a prince; and the end will come with an overflowing of waters, and even to the end there will be war; the making waste which has been fixed.

bbe@Daniel:10:5 @And lifting up my eyes I saw the form of a man clothed in a linen robe, and round him there was a band of gold, of the best gold:

bbe@Daniel:10:13 @But the angel of the kingdom of Persia put himself against me for twenty-one days; but Michael, one of the chief angels, came to my help; and when I came he was still there with the angel of the kings of Persia.

bbe@Daniel:10:14 @Now I have come to give you knowledge of the fate of your people in the later days; for there is still a vision for the days.

bbe@Daniel:10:17 @For how may this servant of my lord have talk with my lord? for, as for me, straight away my strength went from me and there was no breath in my body.

bbe@Daniel:10:21 @But I am going back to make war with the angel of Persia, and when I am gone, the angel of Greece will come. And there is no one on my side against these, but Michael, your angel.

bbe@Daniel:11:2 @And now I will make clear to you what is true. There are still three kings to come in Persia, and the fourth will have much greater wealth than all of them: and when he has become strong through his wealth, he will put his forces in motion against all the kingdoms of Greece.

bbe@Daniel:11:4 @And when he has become strong, his kingdom will be broken and parted to the four winds of heaven; but not to his offspring, for it will be uprooted; and his kingdom will be for the others and not for these: but not with the same authority as his.

bbe@Daniel:11:6 @And at the end of years they will be joined together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she will not keep the strength of her arm; and his offspring will not keep their place; but she will be uprooted, with those who were the cause of her coming, and her son, and he who took her in those times.

bbe@Daniel:11:7 @But out of a branch from her roots one will come up to take his place, who will come against the army, forcing his way into the strong place of the king of the north, and he will take them in hand and overcome them:

bbe@Daniel:11:10 @And his son will make war, and will get together an army of great forces, and he will make an attack on him, overflowing and going past: and he will again take the war even to his strong place.

bbe@Daniel:11:11 @And the king of the south will be moved with wrath, and will come out and make war on him, on this same king of the north: and he will get together a great army, but the army will be given into his hand

bbe@Daniel:11:13 @And again the king of the north will get together an army greater than the first; and he will make an attack on him at the end of years, with a great army and much wealth.

bbe@Daniel:11:16 @And he who comes against him will do his pleasure, and no one will be able to keep his place before him: he will take up his position in the beautiful land and in his hand there will be destruction.

bbe@Daniel:11:20 @Then his place will be taken by one who will send out a man with the glory of a king to get wealth together; but after a short time destruction will overtake him, but not in wrath or in the fight.

bbe@Daniel:11:24 @Against fertile places, and will make waste a part of the country; and he will do what his fathers have not done, or his fathers' fathers; he will make distribution among them of goods taken in war and by force, and of property: he will even make designs against the strong places for a time.

bbe@Daniel:11:33 @And those who are wise among the people will be the teachers of the mass of the people: but they will come to their downfall by the sword and by the flame, being made prisoners and undergoing loss for a long time.

bbe@Daniel:11:34 @Now at the time of their downfall they will have a little help, but numbers will be joined to them in the town, and in their separate heritages.

bbe@Daniel:11:37 @He will have no respect for the gods of his fathers or for the god desired by women; he will have no respect for any god: for he will put himself on high over all.

bbe@Daniel:11:38 @But in place of this he will give honour to the god of armed places, and to a god of whom his fathers had no knowledge he will give honour with gold and silver and jewels and things to be desired.

bbe@Daniel:12:1 @And at that time Michael will take up his place, the great angel, who is the supporter of the children of your people: and there will be a time of trouble, such as there never was from the time there was a nation even till that same time: and at that time your people will be kept safe, everyone who is recorded in the book.

bbe@Daniel:12:5 @Then I, Daniel, looking, saw two others, one at the edge of the river on this side and one at the edge of the river on that side.

bbe@Daniel:12:7 @Then in my hearing the man clothed in linen, who was over the river, lifting up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, took an oath by him who is living for ever that it would be a time, times, and a half; and when the power of the crusher of the holy people comes to an end, all these things will be ended.

bbe@Daniel:12:11 @And from the time when the regular burned offering is taken away, and an unclean thing causing fear is put up, there will be a thousand, two hundred and ninety days.

bbe@Hosea:1:6 @And after that she gave birth to a daughter. And the Lord said, Give her the name Lo-ruhamah; for I will not again have mercy on Israel, to give them forgiveness.

bbe@Hosea:1:11 @And the children of Israel and the children of Judah will come together and take for themselves one head, and will go up from the land, for great will be the day of Jezreel.

bbe@Hosea:2:1 @Say to your brothers, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.

bbe@Hosea:2:2 @Take up the cause against your mother, take it up, for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband; let her put away her loose ways from her face, and her false ways from between her breasts;

bbe@Hosea:2:3 @For fear that I may take away her robe from her, making her uncovered as in the day of her birth; making her like a waste place and a dry land, causing her death through need of water.

bbe@Hosea:2:4 @And I will have no mercy on her children, for they are the children of her loose ways.

bbe@Hosea:2:5 @For their mother has been untrue; she who gave them birth has done things of shame, for she said, I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my linen, my oil and my wine.

bbe@Hosea:2:6 @For this cause I will put thorns in her road, building up a wall round her so that she may not go on her way.

bbe@Hosea:2:7 @And if she goes after her lovers she will not overtake them; if she makes search for them she will not see them; then will she say, I will go back to my first husband, for then it was better for me than now.

bbe@Hosea:2:8 @For she had no knowledge that it was I who gave her the grain and the wine and the oil, increasing her silver and gold which they gave to the Baal.

bbe@Hosea:2:9 @So I will take away again my grain in its time and my wine, and I will take away my wool and my linen with which her body might have been covered.

bbe@Hosea:2:10 @And now I will make her shame clear before the eyes of her lovers, and no one will take her out of my hand.

bbe@Hosea:2:11 @And I will put an end to all her joy, her feasts, her new moons, and her Sabbaths, and all her regular meetings.

bbe@Hosea:2:12 @And I will make waste her vines and her fig-trees, of which she has said, These are the payments which my lovers have made to me; and I will make them a waste of trees, and the beasts of the field will take them for food.

bbe@Hosea:2:13 @And I will give her punishment for the days of the Baals, to whom she has been burning perfumes, when she made herself fair with her nose-rings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, giving no thought to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Hosea:2:14 @For this cause I will make her come into the waste land and will say words of comfort to her.

bbe@Hosea:2:15 @And I will give her vine-gardens from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will give her answer there as in the days when she was young, and as in the time when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Hosea:2:17 @For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and never again will she say their names.

bbe@Hosea:2:23 @And I will put her as seed in the earth, and I will have mercy on her to whom no mercy was given; and I will say to those who were not my people, You are my people, and they will say, My God.

bbe@Hosea:3:1 @And the Lord said to me, Give your love again to a woman who has a lover and is false to her husband, even as the Lord has love for the children of Israel, though they are turned to other gods and are lovers of grape-cakes.

bbe@Hosea:3:2 @So I got her for myself for fifteen shekels of silver and a homer and a half of barley;

bbe@Hosea:3:3 @And I said to her, You are to be mine for a long space of time; you are not to be false to me, and no other man is to have you for his wife; and so will I be to you.

bbe@Hosea:4:1 @Give ear to the word of the Lord, O children of Israel; for the Lord has a cause against the people of this land, because there is no good faith in it, and no mercy and no knowledge of God in the land.

bbe@Hosea:4:2 @There is cursing and broken faith, violent death and attacks on property, men are untrue in married life, houses are broken into, and there is blood touching blood.

bbe@Hosea:4:5 @You will not be able to keep on your feet by day, and by night the prophet will be falling down with you, and I will give your mother to destruction.

bbe@Hosea:4:18 @Their drink has become bitter; they are completely false; her rulers take pleasure in shame.

bbe@Hosea:5:6 @They will go, with their flocks and their herds, in search of the Lord, but they will not see him; he has taken himself out of their view.

bbe@Hosea:5:14 @For I will be to Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the children of Judah; I, even I, will give him wounds and go away; I will take him away, and there will be no helper.

bbe@Hosea:6:7 @But like a man, they have gone against the agreement; there they were false to me.

bbe@Hosea:6:10 @In Israel I have seen a very evil thing; there false ways are seen in Ephraim, Israel is unclean;

bbe@Hosea:7:9 @Men from other lands have made waste his strength, and he is not conscious of it; grey hairs have come on him here and there, and he has no knowledge of it.

bbe@Hosea:8:8 @Israel has come to destruction; now they are among the nations like a cup in which there is no pleasure.

bbe@Hosea:9:2 @The grain-floor and the place where the grapes are crushed will not give them food; there will be no new wine for them.

bbe@Hosea:9:6 @For see, they are going away into Assyria; Egypt will get them together, Memphis will be their last resting-place; their fair silver vessels will be covered over with field plants, and thorns will come up in their tents.

bbe@Hosea:9:8 @There is great hate against the watchman of Ephraim, the people of my God; as for the prophet, there is a net in all his ways, and hate in the house of his God.

bbe@Hosea:9:10 @I made discovery of Israel as of grapes in the waste land; I saw your fathers as the first-fruits of the fig-tree in her early fruit time; but they came to Baal-peor, and made themselves holy to the thing of shame, and became disgusting like that to which they gave their love.

bbe@Hosea:9:11 @As for Ephraim, their glory will go in flight like a bird: there will be no birth and no one with child and no giving of life.

bbe@Hosea:9:12 @Even though their children have come to growth I will take them away, so that not a man will be there; for their evil-doing will be complete and they will be put to shame because of it.

bbe@Hosea:9:13 @As I have seen a beast whose young have been taken from her, so Ephraim will give birth to children only for them to be put to death.

bbe@Hosea:9:15 @All their evil-doing is in Gilgal; there I had hate for them; because of their evil-doing I will send them out of my house; they will no longer be dear to me; all their rulers are uncontrolled.

bbe@Hosea:10:7 @As for Samaria, her king is cut off, like mist on the water.

bbe@Hosea:10:9 @O Israel, you have done evil from the days of Gibeah; there they took up their position, so that the fighting against the children of evil might not overtake them in Gibeah

bbe@Hosea:10:10 @I will come and give them punishment; and the peoples will come together against them when I give them the reward of their two sins.

bbe@Hosea:10:11 @And Ephraim is a trained cow, taking pleasure in crushing the grain; but I have put a yoke on her fair neck; I will put a horseman on the back of Ephraim; Judah will be working the plough, Jacob will be turning up the earth.

bbe@Hosea:10:14 @So a great outcry will go up from among your people, and all your strong places will be broken, as Beth-arbel was broken by Shalman in the day of war, as the mother was broken on the rocks with her children.

bbe@Hosea:12:3 @In the body of his mother he took his brother by the foot, and in his strength he was fighting with God;

bbe@Hosea:12:4 @He had a fight with the angel and overcame him; he made request for grace to him with weeping; he came face to face with him in Beth-el and there his words came to him;

bbe@Hosea:12:11 @In Gilead there is evil. They are quite without value; in Gilgal they make offerings of oxen; truly their altars are like masses of stones in the hollows of a ploughed field.

bbe@Hosea:13:4 @But I am the Lord your God, from the land of Egypt; you have knowledge of no other God and there is no saviour but me.

bbe@Hosea:13:5 @I had knowledge of you in the waste land where no water was.

bbe@Hosea:13:8 @I will come face to face with them like a bear whose young ones have been taken from her, and their inmost hearts will be broken; there the dogs will make a meal of them; they will be wounded by the beasts of the field.

bbe@Hosea:13:10 @Where is your king, that he may be your saviour? and all your rulers, that they may take up your cause? of whom you said, Give me a king and rulers.

bbe@Hosea:13:14 @I will give the price to make them free from the power of the underworld, I will be their saviour from death: O death! where are your pains? O underworld! where is your destruction? my eyes will have no pity.

bbe@Hosea:13:15 @Though he gives fruit among his brothers, an east wind will come, the wind of the Lord coming up from the waste land, and his spring will become dry, his fountain will be without water: it will make waste the store of all the vessels of his desire

bbe@Hosea:13:16 @Samaria will be made waste, for she has gone against her God: they will be cut down by the sword, their little children will be broken on the rocks, their women who are with child will be cut open.

bbe@Hosea:14:2 @Take with you words, and come back to the Lord; say to him, Let there be forgiveness for all wrongdoing, so that we may take what is good, and give in payment the fruit of our lips.

bbe@Hosea:14:3 @Assyria will not be our salvation; we will not go on horses; we will not again say to the work of our hands, You are our gods; for in you there is mercy for the child who has no father.

bbe@Joel:1:2 @Give ear to this, you old men, and take note, you people of the land. Has this ever been in your days, or in the days of your fathers?

bbe@Joel:1:3 @Give the story of it to your children, and let them give it to their children, and their children to another generation.

bbe@Joel:1:8 @Make sounds of grief like a virgin dressed in haircloth for the husband of her early years.

bbe@Joel:1:14 @Let a time be fixed for going without food, have a holy meeting, let the old men, even all the people of the land, come together to the house of the Lord your God, crying out to the Lord.

bbe@Joel:1:18 @What sounds of pain come from the beasts! the herds of cattle are at a loss because there is no grass for them; even the flocks of sheep are no longer to be seen.

bbe@Joel:2:2 @For a day of dark and deep shade is near, a day of cloud and black night: like a black cloud a great and strong people is covering the mountains; there has never been any like them and will not be after them again, from generation to generation.

bbe@Joel:2:6 @At their coming the people are bent with pain: all faces become red together.

bbe@Joel:2:8 @No one is pushing against another; everyone goes straight on his way: bursting through the sword points, their order is not broken.

bbe@Joel:2:16 @Get the people together, make the mass of the people holy, send for the old men, get together the children and babies at the breast: let the newly married man come out of his room and the bride from her tent.

bbe@Joel:2:17 @Let the priests, the servants of the Lord, be weeping between the covered way and the altar, and let them say, Have mercy on your people, O Lord, do not give up your heritage to shame, so that the nations become their rulers: why let them say among the peoples, Where is their God?

bbe@Joel:2:27 @And you will be certain that I am in Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and there is no other: and my people will never be shamed.

bbe@Joel:3:2 @I will get together all the nations, and make them come down into the valley of Jehoshaphat; and there I will take up with them the cause of my people and of my heritage Israel, whom they have sent wandering among the nations, and of my land which has been parted by them.

bbe@Joel:3:4 @And further, what are you to me, O Tyre and Zidon and all the circle of Philistia? will you give me back any payment? and if you do, quickly and suddenly I will send it back on your head,

bbe@Joel:3:7 @See, I will have them moved from the place where you have sent them, and will let what you have done come back on your head;

bbe@Joel:3:11 @Come quickly, all you nations round about, and get yourselves together there: make your strong ones come down, O Lord.

bbe@Joel:3:12 @Let the nations be awake, and come to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there I will be seated as judge of all the nations round about.

bbe@Joel:3:13 @Put in the blade, for the grain is ready: come, get you down, for the wine-crusher is full, the vessels are overflowing; for great is their evil-doing.

bbe@Joel:3:17 @And you will be certain that I am the Lord your God, living in Zion, my holy mountain: and Jerusalem will be holy, and no strange person will ever again go through her.

bbe@Amos:1:1 @The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa; what he saw about Israel in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam, the son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earth-shock.

bbe@Amos:1:9 @These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Tyre, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they gave up all the people prisoners to Edom, without giving a thought to the brothers' agreement between them.

bbe@Amos:1:11 @These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Edom, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because his sword was turned against his brother, without pity, and his wrath was burning at all times, and he was angry for ever.

bbe@Amos:1:15 @And their king will be made prisoner, he and his captains together, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:2:4 @These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Judah, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they have given up the law of the Lord, and have not kept his rules; and their false ways, in which their fathers went, have made them go out of the right way.

bbe@Amos:2:7 @Crushing the head of the poor, and turning the steps of the gentle out of the way: and a man and his father go in to the same young woman, putting shame on my holy name:

bbe@Amos:2:10 @And I took you up out of the land of Egypt, guiding you for forty years in the waste land, so that you might take for your heritage the land of the Amorite.

bbe@Amos:3:3 @Is it possible for two to go walking together, if not by agreement?

bbe@Amos:3:4 @Will a lion give his loud cry in the woodland when no food is there? will the voice of the young lion be sounding from his hole if he has taken nothing?

bbe@Amos:3:5 @Is it possible for a bird to be taken in a net on the earth where no net has been put for him? will the net come up from the earth if it has taken nothing at all?

bbe@Amos:3:9 @Give out the news in the great houses of Assyria and in the land of Egypt, and say, Come together on the mountains of Samaria, and see what great outcries are there, and what cruel acts are done in it.

bbe@Amos:4:3 @And you will go out through the broken places, every one going straight before her, and you will be sent into Harmon, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:6 @But in all your towns I have kept food from your teeth, and in all your places there has been need of bread: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:7 @And I have kept back the rain from you, when it was still three months before the grain-cutting: I sent rain on one town and kept it back from another: one part was rained on, and the part where there was no rain became a waste.

bbe@Amos:5:2 @The virgin of Israel has been made low, never again to be lifted up: she is stretched out by herself on her land; there is no one to put her on her feet again.

bbe@Amos:5:6 @Go to the Lord for help so that you may have life; for fear that he may come like fire bursting out in the family of Joseph, causing destruction, and there will be no one to put it out in Beth-el.

bbe@Amos:5:16 @So these are the words of the Lord, the God of armies, the Lord: There will be weeping in all the open spaces; and in all the streets they will say, Sorrow! sorrow! and they will get in the farmer to the weeping, and the makers of sad songs to give cries of grief.

bbe@Amos:5:17 @In all the vine-gardens there will be cries of grief: for I will go through among you, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:5:27 @And I will send you away as prisoners farther than Damascus, says the Lord, whose name is the God of armies.

bbe@Amos:6:2 @Go on to Calneh and see; and from there go to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines: are you better than these kingdoms? or is your land wider than theirs?

bbe@Amos:6:9 @Then it will come about that if there are still ten men in a house, death will overtake them.

bbe@Amos:6:10 @And when a man's relation, even the one who is responsible for burning his body, lifting him up to take his bones out of the house, says to him who is in the inmost part of the house, Is there still anyone with you? and he says, No; then he will say, Keep quiet, for the name of the Lord may not be named.

bbe@Amos:7:4 @This is what the Lord let me see: and I saw that the Lord God sent for a great fire to be the instrument of his punishment; and, after burning up the great deep, it was about to put an end to the Lord's heritage.

bbe@Amos:7:5 @Then said I, O Lord God, let there be an end: how will Jacob be able to keep his place? for he is small.

bbe@Amos:7:12 @And Amaziah said to Amos, O seer, go in flight into the land of Judah, and there get your living by working as a prophet:

bbe@Amos:7:14 @Then Amos in answer said to Amaziah, I am no prophet, or one of the sons of the prophets; I am a herdman and one who takes care of sycamore-trees:

bbe@Amos:8:3 @And the songs of the king's house will be cries of pain in that day, says the Lord God: great will be the number of the dead bodies, and everywhere they will put them out without a word.

bbe@Amos:8:12 @And they will go wandering from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, running here and there in search of the word of the Lord, and they will not get it.

bbe@Amos:9:2 @Even if they go deep into the underworld, my hand will take them up from there; if they go up to heaven, I will get them down:

bbe@Amos:9:3 @Though they take cover on the top of Carmel, I will go in search of them and get them out; though they keep themselves from my eyes in the bed of the sea, I will give orders to the great snake there and he will give them a bite:

bbe@Amos:9:4 @And though they are taken away as prisoners by their attackers, even there will I give orders to the sword to put them to death: my eyes will be fixed on them for evil and not for good.

bbe@Amos:9:12 @So that the rest of Edom may be their heritage, and all the nations who have been named by my name, says the Lord, who is doing this.

bbe@Amos:9:13 @See, the days will come, says the Lord, when the ploughman will overtake him who is cutting the grain, and the crusher of the grapes him who is planting seed; and sweet wine will be dropping from the mountains, and the hills will be turned into streams of wine.

bbe@Obadiah:1:1 @The vision of Obadiah. This is what the Lord has said about Edom: We have had word from the Lord, and a representative has been sent among the nations, saying, Up! and let us make war against her.

bbe@Obadiah:1:4 @Though you go up on high like an eagle, though your house is placed among the stars, I will make you come down from there, says the Lord.

bbe@Obadiah:1:7 @All the men who were united with you have been false to you, driving you out to the edge of the land: the men who were at peace with you have overcome you; they have taken their heritage in your place.

bbe@Obadiah:1:10 @Because you were the cause of violent death and because of your cruel behaviour to your brother Jacob, you will be covered with shame and will be cut off for ever.

bbe@Obadiah:1:11 @Because you were there watching when men from other lands took away his goods, and strange men came into his doors, and put the fate of Jerusalem to the decision of chance; you were like one of them.

bbe@Obadiah:1:12 @Do not see with pleasure your brother's evil day, the day of his fate, and do not be glad over the children of Judah on the day of their destruction, or make wide your mouth on the day of trouble.

bbe@Obadiah:1:14 @And do not take your place at the cross-roads, cutting off those of his people who get away; and do not give up to their haters those who are still there in the day of trouble.

bbe@Obadiah:1:17 @But in Mount Zion some will be kept safe, and it will be holy; and the children of Jacob will take their heritage.

bbe@Obadiah:1:18 @And the children of Jacob will be a fire and those of Joseph a flame, and the children of Esau dry stems of grass, burned up by them till all is gone: and there will be no people living in Esau; for the Lord has said it.

bbe@Obadiah:1:19 @And they will take the South, and the lowland, and the country of Ephraim, and Gilead, as their heritage.

bbe@Obadiah:1:20 @And those of the children of Israel who were the first to be taken away as prisoners, will have their heritage among the Canaanites as far as Zarephath; and those who were taken away from Jerusalem, who are in Sepharad, will have the towns of the South.

bbe@Jonah:1:3 @And Jonah got up to go in flight to Tarshish, away from the Lord; and he went down to Joppa, and saw there a ship going to Tarshish: so he gave them the price of the journey and went down into it to go with them to Tarshish, away from the Lord.

bbe@Jonah:1:4 @And the Lord sent out a great wind on to the sea and there was a violent storm in the sea, so that the ship seemed in danger of being broken.

bbe@Jonah:1:5 @Then the sailors were full of fear, every man crying to his god; and the goods in the ship were dropped out into the sea to make the weight less. But Jonah had gone down into the inmost part of the ship where he was stretched out in a deep sleep.

bbe@Jonah:1:7 @And they said to one another, Come, let us put this to the decision of chance and see on whose account this evil has come on us. So they did so, and Jonah was seen to be the man.

bbe@Jonah:1:8 @Then they said to him, Now make clear to us what is your work, and where you come from? what is your country, and who are your people?

bbe@Jonah:1:11 @And they said to him, What are we to do to you so that the sea may become calm for us? For the sea was getting rougher and rougher.

bbe@Jonah:1:13 @And the men were working hard to get back to the land, but they were not able to do so: for the sea got rougher and rougher against them.

bbe@Jonah:2:6 @I went down to the bases of the mountains; as for the earth, her walls were about me for ever: but you have taken up my life from the underworld, O Lord my God.

bbe@Jonah:3:7 @And he had it given out in Nineveh, By the order of the king and his great men, no man or beast, herd or flock, is to have a taste of anything; let them have no food or water:

bbe@Jonah:4:11 @And am I not to have mercy on Nineveh, that great town, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand persons without the power of judging between right and left, as well as much cattle?

bbe@Micah:1:7 @And all her pictured images will be hammered into bits, and all the payments for her loose ways will be burned with fire, and all the images of her gods I will make waste: for with the price of a loose woman she got them together, and as the price of a loose woman will they be given back.

bbe@Micah:1:9 @For her wounds may not be made well: for it has come even to Judah, stretching up to the doorway of my people, even to Jerusalem.

bbe@Micah:1:10 @Give no word of it in Gath, let there be no weeping at all: at Beth-le-aphrah be rolling in the dust.

bbe@Micah:1:11 @Be uncovered and go away, you who are living in Shaphir: the one living in Zaanan has not come out of her town; Beth-ezel is taken away from its base, even from its resting-place.

bbe@Micah:1:15 @Even now will the taker of your heritage come to you, you who are living in Mareshah: the glory of Israel will come to destruction for ever.

bbe@Micah:2:2 @They have a desire for fields and take them by force; and for houses and take them away: they are cruel to a man and his family, even to a man and his heritage.

bbe@Micah:2:4 @In that day this saying will be said about you, and this song of grief will be made: The heritage of my people is measured out, and there is no one to give it back; those who have made us prisoners have taken our fields from us, and complete destruction has come to us.

bbe@Micah:2:12 @I will certainly make all of you, O Jacob, come together; I will get together the rest of Israel; I will put them together like the sheep in their circle: like a flock in their green field; they will be full of the noise of men.

bbe@Micah:3:7 @And the seers will be shamed, and the readers of the future will be at a loss, all of them covering their lips; for there is no answer from God.

bbe@Micah:4:3 @And he will be judge between great peoples, and strong nations far away will be ruled by his decisions; their swords will be hammered into plough-blades and their spears into vine-knives: nations will no longer be lifting up their swords against one another, and knowledge of war will have gone for ever.

bbe@Micah:4:6 @In that day, says the Lord, I will get together her who goes with uncertain steps, I will get together her who has been sent away, and her on whom I have sent evil;

bbe@Micah:4:7 @And I will make her whose steps were uncertain a small band, and her who was feeble a strong nation: and the Lord will be their King in Mount Zion from now and for ever.

bbe@Micah:4:9 @Now why are you crying so loudly? is there no king in you? has destruction come on your wise helper? so that pains have taken you like the pains of a woman in childbirth:

bbe@Micah:4:10 @Be in pain, make sounds of grief, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in childbirth: for now you will go out of the town, living in the open country, and will come even to Babylon; there you will have salvation; there the Lord will make you free from the hands of your haters

bbe@Micah:4:11 @And now a number of nations have come together against you, and they say, Let her be made unclean and let our eyes see the fate of Zion.

bbe@Micah:4:12 @But they have no knowledge of the thoughts of the Lord, their minds are not able to see his purpose: for he has got them together like stems of grain to the crushing-floor.

bbe@Micah:5:3 @For this cause he will give them up till the time when she who is with child has given birth: then the rest of his brothers will come back to the children of Israel.

bbe@Micah:5:8 @And the rest of Jacob will be among the nations, in the middle of the mass of peoples, like a lion among the beasts of the woods, like a young lion among the flocks of sheep: if he goes through, they will be crushed under foot and pulled to bits, and there will be no saviour.

bbe@Micah:5:14 @I will have your Asherahs pulled up from among you: and I will send destruction on your images.

bbe@Micah:7:1 @Sorrow is mine! for I am as when they have got in the summer fruits, like the last of the grapes: there is nothing for food, not even an early fig for my desire.

bbe@Micah:7:2 @The good man is gone from the earth, there is no one upright among men: they are all waiting secretly for blood, every man is going after his brother with a net.

bbe@Micah:7:5 @Put no faith in a friend, do not let your hope be placed in a relation: keep watch on the doors of your mouth against her who is resting on your breast.

bbe@Micah:7:6 @For the son puts shame on his father, the daughter goes against her mother and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man's haters are those of his family.

bbe@Micah:7:10 @And my hater will see it and be covered with shame; she who said to me, Where is the Lord your God? my eyes will see their desire effected on her, now she will be crushed under foot like the dust of the streets.

bbe@Micah:7:14 @Keep your people safe with your rod, the flock of your heritage, living by themselves in the woods in the middle of Carmel: let them get their food in Bashan and Gilead as in the past.

bbe@Micah:7:18 @Who is a God like you, offering forgiveness for evil-doing and overlooking the sins of the rest of his heritage? he does not keep his wrath for ever, because his delight is in mercy.

bbe@Nahum:2:10 @Everything has been taken from her, all is gone, she has nothing more: the heart is turned to water, the knees are shaking, all are twisted in pain, and colour has gone from all faces.

bbe@Nahum:3:4 @Because of all the false ways of the loose woman, expert in attraction and wise in secret arts, who takes nations in the net of her false ways, and families through her secret arts.

bbe@Nahum:3:7 @And it will come about that all who see you will go in flight from you and say, Nineveh is made waste: who will be weeping for her? where am I to get comforters for her?

bbe@Nahum:3:8 @Are you better than No-amon, seated on the Nile streams, with waters all round her; whose wall was the sea and her earthwork the waters?

bbe@Nahum:3:9 @Ethiopia was her strength and Egyptians without number; Put and Lubim were her helpers.

bbe@Nahum:3:10 @But even she has been taken away, she has gone away as a prisoner: even her young children are smashed to bits at the top of all the streets: the fate of her honoured men is put to the decision of chance, and all her great men are put in chains

bbe@Nahum:3:15 @There the fire will make you waste; you will be cut off by the sword: make yourself as great in number as the worms, as great in number as the locusts.

bbe@Nahum:3:18 @Sorrow! how are the keepers of your flock sleeping, O king of Assyria! your strong men are at rest; your people are wandering on the mountains, and there is no one to get them together.

bbe@Habakkuk:2:5 @A curse on the cruel and false one! the man full of pride, who never has enough; who makes his desires wide as the underworld! he is like death; he is never full, but he makes all nations come to him, getting all peoples together to himself.

bbe@Habakkuk:2:18 @What profit is the pictured image to its maker? and as for the metal image, the false teacher, why does its maker put his faith in it, making false gods without a voice?

bbe@Habakkuk:2:19 @A curse on him who says to the wood, Awake! to the unbreathing stone, Up! let it be a teacher! See, it is plated with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all inside it.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:10 @The mountains saw you and were moved with fear; the clouds were streaming with water: the voice of the deep was sounding; the sun did not come up, and the moon kept still in her place

bbe@Habakkuk:3:17 @For though the fig-tree has no flowers, and there is no fruit on the vine, and work on the olive comes to nothing, and the fields give no food; and the flock is cut off from its resting-place, and there is no herd in the cattle-house:

bbe@Zephaniah:1:10 @And in that day, says the Lord, there will be the sound of a cry from the fish doorway, and an outcry from the new town, and a great thundering from the hills, and cries of grief from the people of the Hollow;

bbe@Zephaniah:2:5 @Sorrow to the people living by the sea, the nation of the Cherethites! The word of the Lord is against you, O Canaan, the land of the Philistines; I will send destruction on you till there is no one living in you.

bbe@Zephaniah:2:9 @For this cause, by my life, says the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, truly Moab will become like Sodom and the children of Ammon like Gomorrah, given up to waste plants and salt pools and unpeopled for ever: the rest of my people will take their property, the overflow of my nation will take their heritage.

bbe@Zephaniah:2:14 @And herds will take their rest in the middle of her, all the beasts of the valley: the pelican and the porcupine will make their living-places on the tops of its pillars; the owl will be crying in the window; the raven will be seen on the doorstep.

bbe@Zephaniah:2:15 @This is the town which was full of joy, living without fear of danger, saying in her heart, I am, and there is no other: how has she been made waste, a place for beasts to take their rest in! everyone who goes by her will make hisses, waving his hand.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:1 @Sorrow to her who is uncontrolled and unclean, the cruel town!

bbe@Zephaniah:3:2 @She gave no attention to the voice, she had no use for teaching, she put no faith in the Lord, she did not come near to her God.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:3 @Her rulers are like loud-voiced lions in her; her judges are wolves of the evening, crushing up the bones before the morning.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:4 @Her prophets are good-for-nothing persons, full of deceit: her priests have made the holy place unclean and have gone violently against the law.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:5 @The Lord in her is upright; he will not do evil; every morning he lets his righteousness be seen, he is unchanging; but the evil-doer has no sense of shame.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:6 @I have had the nations cut off, their towers are broken down; I have made their streets a waste so that no one goes through them: destruction has overtaken their towns, so that there is no man living in them.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:7 @I said, Certainly you will go in fear of me, and come under my training, so that whatever I may send on her may not be cut off before her eyes: but they got up early and made all their works evil.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:8 @For this reason, go on waiting for me, says the Lord, till the day when I come up as a witness: for my purpose is to send for the nations and to get the kingdoms together, so that I may let loose on them my passion, even all my burning wrath: for all the earth will be burned up in the fire of my bitter passion.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:19 @See, at that time I will put an end to all who have been troubling you: I will give salvation to her whose steps are uncertain, and get together her who has been sent in flight; and I will make them a cause of praise and an honoured name in all the earth, when I let their fate be changed.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:20 @At that time I will make you come in, at that time I will get you together: for I will make you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth when I let your fate be changed before your eyes, says the Lord.

bbe@Haggai:1:10 @For this cause the heaven over you is kept from giving dew, and the earth from giving her fruit.

bbe@Haggai:2:3 @Who is there still among you who saw this house in its first glory? and how do you see it now? is it not in your eyes as nothing?

bbe@Haggai:2:12 @If anyone has some holy flesh folded in the skirt of his robe, will bread or soup or wine or oil or any other food be made holy if touched by his skirt? And the priests answering said, No.

bbe@Haggai:2:14 @Then Haggai said, So is this people and so is this nation before me, says the Lord; and so is every work of their hands; and the offering they give there is unclean.

bbe@Haggai:2:15 @And now, give thought, looking back from this day to the time before one stone was put on another in the Temple of the Lord:

bbe@Haggai:2:16 @How, when anyone came to a store of twenty measures, there were only ten: when anyone went to the wine-store to get fifty vessels full, there were only twenty.

bbe@Haggai:2:22 @Overturning the power of kingdoms; and I will send destruction on the strength of the kingdoms of the nations; by me war-carriages will be overturned with those who are in them; and the horses and the horsemen will come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.

bbe@Zechariah:1:2 @The Lord has been very angry with your fathers:

bbe@Zechariah:1:4 @Be not like your fathers, to whom the voice of the earlier prophets came, saying, Be turned now from your evil ways and from your evil doings: but they did not give ear to me or take note, says the Lord.

bbe@Zechariah:1:5 @Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they go on living for ever?

bbe@Zechariah:1:6 @But my words and my orders, which I gave to my servants the prophets, have they not overtaken your fathers? and turning back they said, As it was the purpose of the Lord of armies to do to us, in reward for our ways and our doings, so has he done.

bbe@Zechariah:1:16 @So this is what the Lord has said: I have come back to Jerusalem with mercies; my house is to be put up in her, says the Lord of armies, and a line is to be stretched out over Jerusalem.

bbe@Zechariah:2:2 @And I said to him, Where are you going? And he said to me, To take the measure of Jerusalem, to see how wide and how long it is.

bbe@Zechariah:2:3 @And the angel who was talking to me went out, and another angel went out, and, meeting him,

bbe@Zechariah:2:4 @Said to him, Go quickly and say to this young man, Jerusalem will be an unwalled town, because of the great number of men and cattle in her.

bbe@Zechariah:2:5 @For I, says the Lord, will be a wall of fire round about her, and I will be the glory inside her.

bbe@Zechariah:2:12 @And Judah will be the Lord's heritage in the holy land, and Jerusalem will again be his.

bbe@Zechariah:3:4 @And he made answer and said to those who were there before him, Take the unclean robes off him, and let him be clothed in clean robes;

bbe@Zechariah:3:7 @These are the words of the Lord of armies: If you will go in my ways and keep what I have put in your care, then you will be judge over my Temple and have the care of my house, and I will give you the right to come in among those who are there.

bbe@Zechariah:3:10 @In that day, says the Lord of armies, you will be one another's guests under the vine and under the fig-tree

bbe@Zechariah:4:2 @And he said to me, What do you see? And I said, I see a light-support, made all of gold, with its cup on the top of it and seven lights on it; and there are seven pipes to every one of the lights which are on the top of it;

bbe@Zechariah:5:6 @And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah which is going out. And he said further, This is their evil-doing in all the land.

bbe@Zechariah:5:8 @And he said, This is Sin; and pushing her down into the ephah, he put the weight of lead on the mouth of it.

bbe@Zechariah:5:10 @And I said to the angel who was talking to me, Where are they taking the ephah?

bbe@Zechariah:5:11 @And he said to me, To make a house for her in the land of Shinar: and they will make a place ready, and put her there in the place which is hers.

bbe@Zechariah:6:12 @And say to him, These are the words of the Lord of armies: See, the man whose name is the Branch, under whom there will be fertile growth.

bbe@Zechariah:6:13 @And he will be the builder of the Temple of the Lord; and the glory will be his, and he will take his place as ruler on the seat of power; and Joshua will be a priest at his right hand, and between them there will be a design of peace.

bbe@Zechariah:7:7 @Are not these the words which the Lord said to you by the earlier prophets, when Jerusalem was full of people and wealth, and the towns round about her and the South and the Lowland were peopled?

bbe@Zechariah:7:9 @This is what the Lord of armies has said: Let your judging be upright and done in good faith, let every man have mercy and pity for his brother:

bbe@Zechariah:7:10 @Do not be hard on the widow, or the child without a father, on the man from a strange country, or on the poor; let there be no evil thought in your heart against your brother.

bbe@Zechariah:7:12 @And they made their hearts like the hardest stone, so that they might not give ear to the law and the words which the Lord of armies had said by the earlier prophets: and there came great wrath from the Lord of armies.

bbe@Zechariah:8:2 @These are the words of the Lord of armies: I am angry about the fate of Zion, I am angry about her with great wrath.

bbe@Zechariah:8:4 @This is what the Lord of armies has said: There will again be old men and old women seated in the open spaces of Jerusalem, every man with his stick in his hand because he is so old.

bbe@Zechariah:8:10 @For before those days there was no payment for a man's work, or for the use of a beast, and there was no peace for him who went out or him who came in, because of the attacker: for I had every man turned against his neighbour.

bbe@Zechariah:8:12 @For I will let the seed of peace be planted; the vine will give her fruit and the land will give her increase and the heavens will give their dew; and I will give to the rest of this people all these things for their heritage.

bbe@Zechariah:8:14 @For this is what the Lord of armies has said: As it was my purpose to do evil to you when your fathers made me angry, says the Lord of armies, and my purpose was not changed:

bbe@Zechariah:8:21 @And the people of one town go to another and say, Let us certainly go with a request for grace from the Lord, and to give worship to the Lord of armies, then I will go with you.

bbe@Zechariah:9:3 @And Tyre made for herself a strong place, and got together silver like dust and the best gold like the earth of the streets.

bbe@Zechariah:9:4 @See, the Lord will take away her heritage, overturning her power in the sea; and she will be burned up with fire.

bbe@Zechariah:9:5 @Ashkelon will see it with fear, and Gaza, bent with pain; and Ekron, for her hope will be shamed: and the king will be cut off from Gaza, and Ashkelon will be unpeopled.

bbe@Zechariah:9:8 @And I will put my forces in position round my house, so that there may be no coming and going: and no cruel master will again go through them: for now I have seen his trouble.

bbe@Zechariah:9:11 @And as for you, because of the blood of your agreement, I have sent out your prisoners from the deep hole in which there is no water.

bbe@Zechariah:10:5 @Together they will be like men of war, crushing down their haters into the earth of the streets in the fight; they will make war because the Lord is with them: and the horsemen will be shamed.

bbe@Zechariah:10:8 @With the sound of the pipe I will get them together; for I have given the price to make them free: and they will be increased as they were increased.

bbe@Zechariah:10:10 @And I will make them come back out of the land of Egypt, and will get them together out of Assyria; and I will take them into the land of Gilead, and it will not be wide enough for them.

bbe@Zechariah:11:7 @So I took care of the flock of death, for those who made profit out of the flock; and I took for myself two rods, naming one Beautiful, and the other Bands; and I took care of the flock.

bbe@Zechariah:11:9 @And I said, I will not take care of you: If death comes to any, let death be its fate; if any is cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest take one another's flesh for food.

bbe@Zechariah:11:14 @Then I took my other rod, the one named Bands, cutting it in two, so that the relation of brothers between Judah and Israel might be broken.

bbe@Zechariah:12:3 @And it will come about in that day that I will make Jerusalem a stone of great weight for all the peoples; all those who take it up will be badly wounded; and all the nations of the earth will come together against it.

bbe@Zechariah:12:6 @In that day I will make the families of Judah like a pot with fire in it among trees, and like a flaming stick among cut grain; they will send destruction on all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem will be living again in the place which is hers, that is, in Jerusalem.

bbe@Zechariah:12:11 @In that day there will be a great weeping in Jerusalem, like the weeping of Hadad-rimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

bbe@Zechariah:12:14 @And all the other families by themselves, and their wives by themselves.

bbe@Zechariah:13:1 @In that day there will be a fountain open to the family of David and to the people of Jerusalem, for sin and for that which is unclean.

bbe@Zechariah:13:2 @And it will come about on that day, says the Lord of armies, that I will have the names of the images cut off out of the land, and there will be no more memory of them: and I will send all the prophets and the unclean spirit away from the land.

bbe@Zechariah:13:3 @And if anyone goes on acting as a prophet, then his father and his mother who gave him life will say to him, You may not go on living, for you are saying what is false in the name of the Lord; and his father and his mother will put a sword through him when he does so.

bbe@Zechariah:13:8 @And it will come about that in all the land, says the Lord, two parts of it will be cut off and come to an end; but the third will be still living there.

bbe@Zechariah:14:2 @For I will get all the nations together to make war against Jerusalem; and the town will be overcome, and the goods taken from the houses, and the women taken by force: and half the town will go away as prisoners, and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the town.

bbe@Zechariah:14:6 @And in that day there will be no heat or cold or ice;

bbe@Zechariah:14:9 @And the Lord will be King over all the earth: in that day there will be one Lord and his name one.

bbe@Zechariah:14:10 @And all the land will become like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she will be lifted up and be living in her place; from the doorway of Benjamin to the place of the first doorway, to the doorway of the angle, and from the tower of Hananel to the king's wine-crushing places, men will be living in her.

bbe@Zechariah:14:11 @And there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will be living without fear of danger.

bbe@Zechariah:14:14 @And even Judah will be fighting against Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the nations round about will be massed together, a great store of gold and silver and clothing.

bbe@Zechariah:14:17 @And it will be that if any one of all the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to give worship to the King, the Lord of armies, on them there will be no rain

bbe@Zechariah:14:18 @And if the family of Egypt does not go up or come there, they will be attacked by the disease which the Lord will send on the nations:

bbe@Zechariah:14:21 @And every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of armies: and all those who make offerings will come and take them for boiling their offerings: in that day there will be no more traders in the house of the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:1:2 @You have been loved by me, says the Lord. But you say, Where was your love for us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? says the Lord: but Jacob was loved by me,

bbe@Malachi:1:3 @And Esau was hated, and I sent destruction on his mountains, and gave his heritage to the beasts of the waste land.

bbe@Malachi:1:6 @A son gives honour to his father, and a servant has fear of his master: if then I am a father, where is my honour? and if I am a master, where is the fear of me? says the Lord of armies to you, O priests, who give no value to my name. And you say, How have we not given value to your name?

bbe@Malachi:1:10 @If only there was one among you who would see that the doors were shut, so that you might not put a light to the fire on my altar for nothing! I have no pleasure in you, says the Lord of armies, and I will not take an offering from your hands.

bbe@Malachi:2:10 @Have we not all one father? has not one God made us? why are we, every one of us, acting falsely to his brother, putting shame on the agreement of our fathers?

bbe@Malachi:2:17 @You have made the Lord tired with your words. And still you say, How have we made him tired? By your saying, Everyone who does evil is good in the eyes of the Lord, and he has delight in them; or, Where is God the judge?

bbe@Malachi:3:5 @And I will come near to you for judging; I will quickly be a witness against the wonder-workers, against those who have been untrue in married life, against those who take false oaths; against those who keep back from the servant his payment, and who are hard on the widow and the child without a father, who do not give his rights to the man from a strange country, and have no fear of me, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:3:7 @From the days of your fathers you have been turned away from my rules and have not kept them. Come back to me, and I will come back to you, says the Lord of armies. But you say, How are we to come back?

bbe@Malachi:3:10 @Let your tenths come into the store-house so that there may be food in my house, and put me to the test by doing so, says the Lord of armies, and see if I do not make the windows of heaven open and send down such a blessing on you that there is no room for it

bbe@Malachi:3:16 @Then those in whom was the fear of the Lord had talk together: and the Lord gave ear, and it was recorded in a book to be kept in mind before him, for those who had the fear of the Lord and gave thought to his name.

bbe@Malachi:4:6 @And by him the hearts of fathers will be turned to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers; for fear that I may come and put the earth under a curse.

bbe@Matthew:1:2 @The son of Abraham was Isaac; and the son of Isaac was Jacob; and the sons of Jacob were Judah and his brothers;

bbe@Matthew:1:6 @And the son of Jesse was David the king; and the son of David was Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah;

bbe@Matthew:1:11 @And the sons of Josiah were Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the taking away to Babylon.

bbe@Matthew:1:18 @Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this way: when his mother Mary was going to be married to Joseph, before they came together the discovery was made that she was with child by the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Matthew:1:19 @And Joseph, her husband, being an upright man, and not desiring to make her a public example, had a mind to put her away privately.

bbe@Matthew:1:20 @But when he was giving thought to these things, an angel of the Lord came to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, have no fear of taking Mary as your wife; because that which is in her body is of the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Matthew:1:24 @And Joseph did as the angel of the Lord had said to him, and took her as his wife;

bbe@Matthew:1:25 @And he had no connection with her till she had given birth to a son; and he gave him the name Jesus.

bbe@Matthew:2:1 @Now when the birth of Jesus took place in Beth-lehem of Judaea, in the days of Herod the king, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

bbe@Matthew:2:2 @Saying, Where is the King of the Jews whose birth has now taken place? We have seen his star in the east and have come to give him worship.

bbe@Matthew:2:3 @And when it came to the ears of Herod the king, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

bbe@Matthew:2:4 @And he got together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, questioning them as to where the birth-place of the Christ would be.

bbe@Matthew:2:7 @Then Herod sent for the wise men privately, and put questions to them about what time the star had been seen.

bbe@Matthew:2:8 @And he sent them to Beth-lehem and said, Go and make certain where the young child is; and when you have seen him, let me have news of it, so that I may come and give him worship.

bbe@Matthew:2:9 @And after hearing the king, they went on their way; and the star which they saw in the east went before them, till it came to rest over the place where the young child was.

bbe@Matthew:2:11 @And they came into the house, and saw the young child with Mary, his mother; and falling down on their faces they gave him worship; and from their store they gave him offerings of gold, perfume, and spices.

bbe@Matthew:2:12 @And it was made clear to them by God in a dream that they were not to go back to Herod; so they went into their country by another way.

bbe@Matthew:2:13 @And when they had gone, an angel of the Lord came to Joseph in a dream, saying, Get up and take the young child and his mother, and go into Egypt, and do not go from there till I give you word; for Herod will be searching for the young child to put him to death.

bbe@Matthew:2:14 @So he took the young child and his mother by night, and went into Egypt;

bbe@Matthew:2:15 @And was there till the death of Herod; so that the word of the Lord through the prophet might come true, Out of Egypt have I sent for my son.

bbe@Matthew:2:16 @Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, was very angry; and he sent out, and put to death all the male children in Beth-lehem and in all the parts round about it, from two years old and under, acting on the knowledge which he had got with care from the wise men.

bbe@Matthew:2:18 @In Ramah there was a sound of weeping and great sorrow, Rachel weeping for her children, and she would not be comforted for their loss.

bbe@Matthew:2:19 @But when Herod was dead, an angel of the Lord came in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,

bbe@Matthew:2:20 @Saying, Get up and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: because they who were attempting to take the young child's life are dead.

bbe@Matthew:2:21 @And he got up, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

bbe@Matthew:2:22 @But when it came to his ears that Archelaus was ruling over Judaea in the place of his father Herod, he was in fear of going there; and God having given him news of the danger in a dream, he went out of the way into the country parts of Galilee.

bbe@Matthew:3:4 @Now John was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather band about him; and his food was locusts and honey.

bbe@Matthew:3:9 @And say not to yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; because I say to you that God is able from these stones to make children for Abraham.

bbe@Matthew:4:15 @The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, by the way of the sea, the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,

bbe@Matthew:4:18 @And when he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, whose other name was Peter, and Andrew, his brother, who were putting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

bbe@Matthew:4:19 @And he said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

bbe@Matthew:4:21 @And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, in the boat with their father, stitching up their nets; and he said, Come.

bbe@Matthew:4:22 @And they went straight from the boat and their father and came after him.

bbe@Matthew:4:25 @And there went after him great numbers from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judaea and from the other side of Jordan.

bbe@Matthew:5:5 @Happy are the gentle: for the earth will be their heritage.

bbe@Matthew:5:16 @Even so let your light be shining before men, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:5:17 @Let there be no thought that I have come to put an end to the law or the prophets. I have not come for destruction, but to make complete.

bbe@Matthew:5:19 @Whoever then goes against the smallest of these laws, teaching men to do the same, will be named least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who keeps the laws, teaching others to keep them, will be named great in the kingdom of heaven.

bbe@Matthew:5:22 @But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be in danger of being judged; and he who says to his brother, Raca, will be in danger from the Sanhedrin; and whoever says, You foolish one, will be in danger of the hell of fire.

bbe@Matthew:5:23 @If then you are making an offering at the altar and there it comes to your mind that your brother has something against you,

bbe@Matthew:5:24 @While your offering is still before the altar, first go and make peace with your brother, then come and make your offering.

bbe@Matthew:5:26 @Truly I say to you, You will not come out from there till you have made payment of the very last farthing.

bbe@Matthew:5:27 @You have knowledge that it was said, You may not have connection with another man's wife:

bbe@Matthew:5:28 @But I say to you that everyone whose eyes are turned on a woman with desire has had connection with her in his heart.

bbe@Matthew:5:31 @Again, it was said, Whoever puts away his wife has to give her a statement in writing for this purpose:

bbe@Matthew:5:32 @But I say to you that everyone who puts away his wife for any other cause but the loss of her virtue, makes her false to her husband; and whoever takes her as his wife after she is put away, is no true husband to her.

bbe@Matthew:5:45 @So that you may be the sons of your Father in heaven; for his sun gives light to the evil and to the good, and he sends rain on the upright man and on the sinner.

bbe@Matthew:5:47 @And if you say, Good day, to your brothers only, what do you do more than others? do not even the Gentiles the same?

bbe@Matthew:5:48 @Be then complete in righteousness, even as your Father in heaven is complete.

bbe@Matthew:6:1 @Take care not to do your good works before men, to be seen by them; or you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:6:4 @So that your giving may be in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, will give you your reward.

bbe@Matthew:6:6 @But when you make your prayer, go into your private room, and, shutting the door, say a prayer to your Father in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will give you your reward.

bbe@Matthew:6:8 @So be not like them; because your Father has knowledge of your needs even before you make your requests to him.

bbe@Matthew:6:9 @Let this then be your prayer: Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.

bbe@Matthew:6:14 @For if you let men have forgiveness for their sins, you will have forgiveness from your Father in heaven

bbe@Matthew:6:15 @But if you do not let men have forgiveness for their sins, you will not have forgiveness from your Father for your sins.

bbe@Matthew:6:18 @So that no one may see that you are going without food, but your Father in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, will give you your reward.

bbe@Matthew:6:19 @Make no store of wealth for yourselves on earth, where it may be turned to dust by worms and weather, and where thieves may come in by force and take it away.

bbe@Matthew:6:20 @But make a store for yourselves in heaven, where it will not be turned to dust and where thieves do not come in to take it away:

bbe@Matthew:6:21 @For where your wealth is, there will your heart be.

bbe@Matthew:6:24 @No man is able to be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other, or he will keep to one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.

bbe@Matthew:6:26 @See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in store-houses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?

bbe@Matthew:6:30 @But if God gives such clothing to the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is put into the oven, will he not much more give you clothing, O you of little faith?

bbe@Matthew:6:32 @Because the Gentiles go in search of all these things: for your Father in heaven has knowledge that you have need of all these things:

bbe@Matthew:6:33 @But let your first care be for his kingdom and his righteousness; and all these other things will be given to you in addition.

bbe@Matthew:7:1 @Be not judges of others, and you will not be judged.

bbe@Matthew:7:3 @And why do you take note of the grain of dust in your brother's eye, but take no note of the bit of wood which is in your eye?

bbe@Matthew:7:4 @Or how will you say to your brother, Let me take out the grain of dust from your eye, when you yourself have a bit of wood in your eye?

bbe@Matthew:7:5 @You false one, first take out the bit of wood from your eye, then will you see clearly to take out the grain of dust from your brother's eye.

bbe@Matthew:7:11 @If you, then, being evil, are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who make requests to him?

bbe@Matthew:7:21 @Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will go into the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the pleasure of my Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:7:25 @And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house, but it was not moved; because it was based on the rock.

bbe@Matthew:7:27 @And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house; and it came down and great was its fall.

bbe@Matthew:8:9 @Because I myself am a man under authority, having under me fighting men; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.

bbe@Matthew:8:12 @But the sons of the kingdom will be put out into the dark, and there will be weeping and cries of pain.

bbe@Matthew:8:14 @And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother in bed, very ill.

bbe@Matthew:8:15 @And he put his hand on hers and the disease went from her, and she got up and took care of his needs.

bbe@Matthew:8:18 @Now when Jesus saw a great mass of people about him, he gave an order to go to the other side

bbe@Matthew:8:19 @And there came a scribe and said to him, Master, I will come after you wherever you go.

bbe@Matthew:8:20 @And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of heaven have a resting-place; but the Son of man has nowhere to put his head.

bbe@Matthew:8:21 @And another of the disciples said to him, Lord, let me first go and give the last honours to my father.

bbe@Matthew:8:24 @And there came up a great storm in the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves: but he was sleeping.

bbe@Matthew:8:26 @And he said to them, Why are you full of fear, O you of little faith? Then he got up and gave orders to the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

bbe@Matthew:8:28 @And when he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, there came out to him from the place of the dead, two who had evil spirits, so violent that no man was able to go that way.

bbe@Matthew:8:29 @And they gave a loud cry, saying, What have we to do with you, you Son of God? Have you come here to give us punishment before the time?

bbe@Matthew:8:30 @Now there was, some distance away, a great herd of pigs taking their food.

bbe@Matthew:8:31 @And the evil spirits made strong prayers to him, saying, If you send us out, let us go into the herd of pigs.

bbe@Matthew:8:32 @And he said to them, Go. And they came out, and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea and came to their end in the water.

bbe@Matthew:9:9 @And when Jesus was going from there, he saw a man whose name was Matthew, seated at the place where taxes were taken; and he said to him, Come after me. And he got up and went after him.

bbe@Matthew:9:18 @While he was saying these things to them, there came a ruler and gave him worship, saying, My daughter is even now dead; but come and put your hand on her, and she will come back to life.

bbe@Matthew:9:20 @And a woman, who for twelve years had had a flow of blood, came after him, and put her hand on the edge of his robe:

bbe@Matthew:9:21 @Because, she said to herself, if I may but put my hand on his robe, I will be made well.

bbe@Matthew:9:22 @But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, Daughter, take heart; your faith has made you well. And the woman was made well from that hour.

bbe@Matthew:9:25 @But when the people were sent out, he went in and took her by the hand; and the girl got up.

bbe@Matthew:9:27 @And when Jesus went on from there, two blind men came after him, crying out, Have mercy on us, you Son of David.

bbe@Matthew:9:32 @And while they were going away, there came to him a man without the power of talking, and with an evil spirit.

bbe@Matthew:9:37 @Then he said to his disciples, There is much grain but not enough men to get it in.

bbe@Matthew:10:1 @And he got together his twelve disciples and gave them the power of driving out unclean spirits, and of making well all sorts of disease and pain.

bbe@Matthew:10:2 @Now the names of the twelve are these: The first, Simon, who is named Peter, and Andrew, his brother; James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother;

bbe@Matthew:10:11 @And into whatever town or small place you go, make search there for someone who is respected, and make his house your resting-place till you go away.

bbe@Matthew:10:20 @Because it is not you who say the words, but the Spirit of your Father in you.

bbe@Matthew:10:21 @And brother will give up brother to death, and the father his child: and children will go against their fathers and mothers, and put them to death.

bbe@Matthew:10:23 @But when they are cruel to you in one town, go in flight to another: for truly, I say to you, You will not have gone through the towns of Israel before the Son of man comes.

bbe@Matthew:10:29 @Are not sparrows two a farthing? and not one of them comes to an end without your Father:

bbe@Matthew:10:32 @To everyone, then, who gives witness to me before men, I will give witness before my Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:10:33 @But if anyone says before men that he has no knowledge of me, I will say that I have no knowledge of him before my Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:10:35 @For I have come to put a man against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law:

bbe@Matthew:10:37 @He who has more love for his father or mother than for me is not good enough for me; he who has more love for son or daughter than for me is not good enough for me.

bbe@Matthew:11:1 @And it came about that when Jesus had come to the end of giving these orders to his twelve disciples, he went away from there, teaching and preaching in their towns.

bbe@Matthew:11:3 @To say to him, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

bbe@Matthew:11:11 @Truly I say to you, Among the sons of women there has not been a greater than John the Baptist: but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he

bbe@Matthew:11:16 @But what comparison may I make of this generation? It is like children seated in the market-places, crying out to one another,

bbe@Matthew:11:19 @The Son of man has come feasting, and they say, See, a lover of food and wine, a friend of tax-farmers and sinners! And wisdom is judged to be right by her works.

bbe@Matthew:11:20 @Then he went on to say hard things to the towns where most of his works of power were done, because they had not been turned from their sins.

bbe@Matthew:11:23 @And you, Capernaum, were you not to be lifted up to heaven? you will go down into hell: for if the works of power which were done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have been here to this day.

bbe@Matthew:11:25 @At that time Jesus made answer and said, I give praise to you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have kept these things secret from the wise and the men of learning, and have made them clear to little children.

bbe@Matthew:11:26 @Yes, Father, for so it was pleasing in your eyes.

bbe@Matthew:11:27 @All things have been given to me by my Father; and no one has knowledge of the Son, but the Father; and no one has knowledge of the Father, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will make it clear.

bbe@Matthew:12:6 @But I say to you that a greater thing than the Temple is here.

bbe@Matthew:12:9 @And he went from there into their Synagogue:

bbe@Matthew:12:10 @And there was a man with a dead hand. And they put a question to him, saying, Is it right to make a man well on the Sabbath day? so that they might have something against him.

bbe@Matthew:12:15 @And Jesus, having knowledge of this, went away from there, and a great number went after him; and he made them all well,

bbe@Matthew:12:30 @Whoever is not with me is against me; and he who does not take part with me in getting people together, is driving them away.

bbe@Matthew:12:31 @So I say to you, Every sin and every evil word against God will have forgiveness; but for evil words against the Spirit there will be no forgiveness.

bbe@Matthew:12:41 @The men of Nineveh will come up in the day of judging and give their decision against this generation: because they were turned from their sins at the preaching of Jonah; and now a greater than Jonah is here.

bbe@Matthew:12:42 @The queen of the South will come up in the day of judging and give her decision against this generation: for she came from the ends of the earth to give ear to the wisdom of Solomon; and now a greater than Solomon is here.

bbe@Matthew:12:44 @Then he says, I will go back into my house from which I came out; and when he comes, he sees that there is no one in it, but that it has been made fair and clean.

bbe@Matthew:12:45 @Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits worse than himself, and they go in and make it their living-place: and the last condition of that man is worse than the first. Even so will it be with this evil generation.

bbe@Matthew:12:46 @While he was still talking to the people, his mother and his brothers came, desiring to have talk with him.

bbe@Matthew:12:47 @And one said to him, See, your mother and your brothers are outside, desiring to have talk with you.

bbe@Matthew:12:48 @But he in answer said to him who gave the news, Who is my mother and who are my brothers?

bbe@Matthew:12:49 @And he put out his hand to his disciples and said, See, my mother and my brothers!

bbe@Matthew:12:50 @For whoever does the pleasure of my Father in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.

bbe@Matthew:13:2 @And great numbers of people came together to him, so that he got into a boat; and the people took up their position by the sea.

bbe@Matthew:13:5 @And some of the seed went among the stones, where it had not much earth, and straight away it came up because the earth was not deep:

bbe@Matthew:13:24 @And he gave them another story, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a man who put good seed in his field:

bbe@Matthew:13:30 @Let them come up together till the getting in of the grain; and then I will say to the workers, Take up first the evil plants, and put them together for burning: but put the grain into my store-house.

bbe@Matthew:13:31 @He put another story before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his field:

bbe@Matthew:13:33 @Another story he gave to them: The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took, and put in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.

bbe@Matthew:13:40 @As then the evil plants are got together and burned with fire, so will it be in the end of the world.

bbe@Matthew:13:42 @And will put them into the fire; there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

bbe@Matthew:13:43 @Then will the upright be shining as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him give ear.

bbe@Matthew:13:48 @When it was full, they took it up on the sands; and seated there they put the good into vessels, but the bad they put away.

bbe@Matthew:13:50 @And will put them into the fire: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

bbe@Matthew:13:53 @And when Jesus had come to the end of these stories he went away from there.

bbe@Matthew:13:54 @And coming into his country, he gave them teaching in their Synagogue, so that they were greatly surprised and said, Where did this man get this wisdom and these works of power?

bbe@Matthew:13:55 @Is not this the woodworker's son? is not his mother named Mary? and his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?

bbe@Matthew:13:56 @And his sisters, are they not all with us? from where, then, has he all these things?

bbe@Matthew:13:57 @And they were bitter against him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour but in his country and among his family.

bbe@Matthew:13:58 @And the works of power which he did there were small in number because they had no faith.

bbe@Matthew:14:1 @At that time news of Jesus came to Herod the king;

bbe@Matthew:14:3 @For Herod had taken John and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.

bbe@Matthew:14:4 @Because John had said to him, It is not right for you to have her.

bbe@Matthew:14:6 @But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias was dancing before them, and Herod was pleased with her.

bbe@Matthew:14:7 @So he gave her his word with an oath to let her have whatever she might make request for.

bbe@Matthew:14:8 @And she, at her mother's suggestion, said, Give me here on a plate the head of John the Baptist.

bbe@Matthew:14:9 @And the king was sad; but because of his oaths and because of his guests, he gave the order for it to be given to her;

bbe@Matthew:14:11 @And his head was put on a plate and given to the girl; and she took it to her mother.

bbe@Matthew:14:13 @Now when it came to the ears of Jesus, he went away from there in a boat, to a waste place by himself: and the people hearing of it, went after him on foot from the towns.

bbe@Matthew:14:16 @But Jesus said to them, There is no need for them to go away; give them food yourselves.

bbe@Matthew:14:17 @And they say to him, We have here but five cakes of bread and two fishes

bbe@Matthew:14:22 @And straight away he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, till he had sent the people away.

bbe@Matthew:14:23 @And after he had sent the people away, he went up into the mountain by himself for prayer: and when evening was come, he was there by himself.

bbe@Matthew:15:1 @Then there came to Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and scribes, saying,

bbe@Matthew:15:2 @Why do your disciples go against the teaching of the fathers? for they take food with unwashed hands.

bbe@Matthew:15:4 @For God said, Give honour to your father and mother: and, He who says evil of father or mother will be put to death.

bbe@Matthew:15:5 @But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is given to God;

bbe@Matthew:15:6 @There is no need for him to give honour to his father. And you have made the word of God without effect because of your teaching.

bbe@Matthew:15:10 @And he got the people together and said to them, Give ear, and let my words be clear to you:

bbe@Matthew:15:13 @But he said in answer, Every plant which my Father in heaven has not put in the earth, will be taken up by the roots.

bbe@Matthew:15:14 @Let them be: they are blind guides. And if a blind man is guiding a blind man, the two will go falling into a hole together.

bbe@Matthew:15:21 @And Jesus went away from there into the country of Tyre and Sidon.

bbe@Matthew:15:23 @But he gave her no answer. And his disciples came and said to him, Send her away, for she is crying after us.

bbe@Matthew:15:28 @Then Jesus, answering, said to her, O woman, great is your faith: let your desire be done. And her daughter was made well from that hour.

bbe@Matthew:15:29 @And Jesus went from there and came to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and took his seat there.

bbe@Matthew:15:30 @And there came to him great numbers of people having with them those who were broken in body, or blind, or without voice, or wounded, or ill in any way, and a number of others; they put them down at his feet and he made them well:

bbe@Matthew:15:32 @And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.

bbe@Matthew:15:38 @And there were four thousand men who took food, together with women and children.

bbe@Matthew:16:2 @But in answer he said to them, At nightfall you say, The weather will be good, for the sky is red.

bbe@Matthew:16:3 @And in the morning, The weather will be bad today, for the sky is red and angry. You are able to see the face of heaven, but not the signs of the times.

bbe@Matthew:16:5 @And when the disciples came to the other side they had not taken thought to get bread.

bbe@Matthew:16:14 @And they said, Some say, John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.

bbe@Matthew:16:17 @And Jesus made answer and said to him, A blessing on you, Simon Bar-jonah: because this knowledge has not come to you from flesh and blood, but from my Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:16:27 @For the Son of man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he will give to every man the reward of his works.

bbe@Matthew:16:28 @Truly I say to you, There are some of those here who will not have a taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

bbe@Matthew:17:1 @And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, his brother, and makes them go up with him into a high mountain by themselves.

bbe@Matthew:17:4 @And Peter made answer and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if you will let me, I will make here three tents, one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

bbe@Matthew:17:17 @And Jesus, answering, said, O false and foolish generation, how long will I be with you? how long will I put up with you? let him come here to me.

bbe@Matthew:17:25 @He says, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus said to him, What is your opinion, Simon? from whom do the kings of the earth get payment or tax? from their sons or from other people?

bbe@Matthew:17:26 @And when he said, From other people, Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free.

bbe@Matthew:18:10 @Let it not seem to you that one of these little ones is of no value; for I say to you that in heaven their angels see at all times the face of my Father in heaven

bbe@Matthew:18:14 @Even so it is not the pleasure of your Father in heaven for one of these little ones to come to destruction.

bbe@Matthew:18:15 @And if your brother does wrong to you, go, make clear to him his error between you and him in private: if he gives ear to you, you have got your brother back again.

bbe@Matthew:18:19 @Again, I say to you, that if two of you are in agreement on earth about anything for which they will make a request, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:18:20 @For where two or three are come together in my name, there am I among them.

bbe@Matthew:18:21 @Then Peter came and said to him, Lord, what number of times may my brother do wrong against me, and I give him forgiveness? till seven times?

bbe@Matthew:18:28 @But that servant went out, and meeting one of the other servants, who was in debt to him for one hundred pence, he took him by the throat, saying, Make payment of your debt.

bbe@Matthew:18:31 @So when the other servants saw what was done they were very sad, and came and gave word to their lord of what had been done.

bbe@Matthew:18:33 @Was it not right for you to have mercy on the other servant, even as I had mercy on you?

bbe@Matthew:18:35 @So will my Father in heaven do to you, if you do not everyone, from your hearts, give forgiveness to his brother.

bbe@Matthew:19:1 @And it came about that after saying these words, Jesus went away from Galilee, and came into the parts of Judaea on the other side of Jordan.

bbe@Matthew:19:2 @And a great number went after him; and he made them well there.

bbe@Matthew:19:5 @For this cause will a man go away from his father and mother, and be joined to his wife; and the two will become one flesh?

bbe@Matthew:19:7 @They say to him, Why then did Moses give orders that a husband might give her a statement in writing and be free from her?

bbe@Matthew:19:9 @And I say to you, Whoever puts away his wife for any other cause than the loss of her virtue, and takes another, is a false husband: and he who takes her as his wife when she is put away, is no true husband to her.

bbe@Matthew:19:12 @For there are men who, from birth, were without sex: and there are some who were made so by men: and there are others who have made themselves so for the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to take it, let him take it.

bbe@Matthew:19:17 @And he said to him, Why are you questioning me about what is good? One there is who is good: but if you have a desire to go into life, keep the rules of the law.

bbe@Matthew:19:19 @Give honour to your father and your mother: and, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

bbe@Matthew:19:20 @The young man says to him, All these things have I done: what more is there?

bbe@Matthew:19:29 @And everyone who has given up houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or child, or land, for my name, will be given a hundred times as much, and have eternal life.

bbe@Matthew:20:3 @And he went out about the third hour, and saw others in the market-place doing nothing;

bbe@Matthew:20:4 @And he said to them, Go into the vine-garden with the others, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went to work.

bbe@Matthew:20:6 @And about the eleventh hour he went out and saw others doing nothing; and he says to them, Why are you here all the day doing nothing?

bbe@Matthew:20:20 @Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, giving him worship and making a request of him.

bbe@Matthew:20:21 @And he said to her, What is your desire? She says to him, Let my two sons be seated, the one at your right hand, and the other at your left, in your kingdom.

bbe@Matthew:20:23 @They say to him, We are able. He says to them, Truly, you will take of my cup: but to be seated at my right hand and at my left is not for me to give, but it is for those for whom my Father has made it ready.

bbe@Matthew:20:24 @And when it came to the ears of the ten, they were angry with the two brothers.

bbe@Matthew:21:2 @Saying to them, Go into the little town in front of you, and straight away you will see an ass with a cord round her neck, and a young one with her; let them loose and come with them to me.

bbe@Matthew:21:8 @And all the people put their clothing down in the way; and others got branches from the trees, and put them down in the way.

bbe@Matthew:21:12 @And Jesus went into the Temple and sent out all who were trading there, overturning the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those trading in doves.

bbe@Matthew:21:17 @And he went away from them, and went out of the town to Bethany, and was there for the night.

bbe@Matthew:21:19 @And seeing a fig-tree by the wayside, he came to it, and saw nothing on it but leaves only; and he said to it, Let there be no fruit from you from this time forward for ever. And straight away the fig-tree became dry and dead.

bbe@Matthew:21:25 @The baptism of John, where did it come from? from heaven or from men? And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did you not have faith in him?

bbe@Matthew:21:31 @Which of the two did his father's pleasure? They say, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, that tax-farmers and loose women are going into the kingdom of God before you.

bbe@Matthew:21:33 @Give ear to another story. A master of a house made a vine garden, and put a wall round it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and made a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.

bbe@Matthew:21:35 @And the workmen made an attack on his servants, giving blows to one, putting another to death, and stoning another.

bbe@Matthew:21:36 @Again, he sent other servants more in number than the first: and they did the same to them.

bbe@Matthew:21:38 @But when the workmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death and take his heritage.

bbe@Matthew:21:41 @They say to him, He will put those cruel men to a cruel death, and will let out the vine-garden to other workmen, who will give him the fruit when it is ready.

bbe@Matthew:22:4 @Again he sent out other servants, with orders to say to the guests, See, I have made ready my feast: my oxen and my fat beasts have been put to death, and all things are ready: come to the feast.

bbe@Matthew:22:5 @But they gave no attention, and went about their business, one to his farm, another to his trade:

bbe@Matthew:22:10 @And those servants went out into the streets, and got together all those whom they came across, bad and good: and the feast was full of guests.

bbe@Matthew:22:11 @But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who had not on a guest's robe;

bbe@Matthew:22:12 @And he says to him, Friend, how came you in here not having a guest's robe? And he had nothing to say.

bbe@Matthew:22:13 @Then the king said to the servants, Put cords round his hands and feet and put him out into the dark; there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

bbe@Matthew:22:16 @And they sent to him their disciples, with the Herodians, saying, Master, we see that you are true, and that you are teaching the true way of God, and have no fear of anyone, because you have no respect for a man's position

bbe@Matthew:22:23 @On the same day there came to him the Sadducees, who say that there is no coming back from the dead: and they put a question to him, saying,

bbe@Matthew:22:24 @Master, Moses said, If a man, at the time of his death, has no children, let his brother take his wife, and get a family for his brother;

bbe@Matthew:22:25 @Now there were among us seven brothers; and the first was married and at his death, having no seed, gave his wife to his brother;

bbe@Matthew:22:27 @And last of all the woman came to her end.

bbe@Matthew:22:28 @When they come back from the dead, then, whose wife will she be of the seven? because they all had her.

bbe@Matthew:22:30 @For when they come back from the dead there are no husbands and wives, but they are as the angels in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:22:34 @But the Pharisees, hearing how the mouths of the Sadducees had been stopped, came together;

bbe@Matthew:22:35 @And one of them, a teacher of the law, put a question to him, testing him, and saying,

bbe@Matthew:22:41 @Now while the Pharisees were together, Jesus put a question to them, saying,

bbe@Matthew:23:7 @And words of respect in the market-places, and to be named by men, Teacher.

bbe@Matthew:23:8 @But you may not be named Teacher: for one is your teacher, and you are all brothers.

bbe@Matthew:23:9 @And give no man the name of father on earth: because one is your Father, who is in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:23:23 @A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you make men give a tenth of all sorts of sweet-smelling plants, but you give no thought to the more important things of the law, righteousness, and mercy, and faith; but it is right for you to do these, and not to let the others be undone.

bbe@Matthew:23:30 @If we had been living in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in the blood of the prophets.

bbe@Matthew:23:32 @Make full, then, the measure of your fathers.

bbe@Matthew:23:37 @O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, putting to death the prophets, and stoning those who are sent to her! Again and again would I have taken your children to myself as a bird takes her young ones under her wings, and you would not!

bbe@Matthew:24:2 @But he, answering, said to them, See you not all these things? truly I say to you that here there will not be one stone resting on another, which will not be pulled down.

bbe@Matthew:24:10 @And numbers of people will be turned from the right way, and will give one another up and have hate for one another.

bbe@Matthew:24:21 @Because in those days there will be great sorrow, such as there has not been from the start of the world till now, or ever will be.

bbe@Matthew:24:22 @And if those days had not been made short there would have been no salvation for any, but because of the saints those days will be made short.

bbe@Matthew:24:23 @Then if any man says to you, See, here is the Christ, or, Here; do not put faith in him;

bbe@Matthew:24:24 @For there will come up false Christs, and false prophets, who will do great signs and wonders; so that if possible even the saints might be tricked.

bbe@Matthew:24:28 @Wherever the dead body is, there will the eagles come together.

bbe@Matthew:24:29 @But straight away, after the trouble of those days, the sun will be made dark and the moon will not give her light and the stars will come down from heaven and the powers of heaven will be moved:

bbe@Matthew:24:31 @And he will send out his angels with a great sound of a horn, and they will get his saints together from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

bbe@Matthew:24:32 @Now take an example from the fig-tree: when her branch has become soft and puts out its leaves, you are certain that the summer is near;

bbe@Matthew:24:36 @But of that day and hour no one has knowledge, not even the angels in heaven, or the Son, but the Father only.

bbe@Matthew:24:49 @And is cruel to the other servants, taking his pleasure with those who are overcome with wine;

bbe@Matthew:24:51 @And will have him cut in two, and will give him a part in the fate of the false ones: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

bbe@Matthew:25:6 @But in the middle of the night there is a cry, The husband comes! Go out to him.

bbe@Matthew:25:9 @But the wise made answer, saying, There may not be enough for us and you; it would be better for you to go to the traders and get oil for yourselves

bbe@Matthew:25:11 @After that the other virgins came, saying, Lord, Lord, let us in.

bbe@Matthew:25:14 @For it is as when a man, about to take a journey, got his servants together, and gave them his property.

bbe@Matthew:25:15 @And to one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to everyone as he was able; and he went on his journey.

bbe@Matthew:25:20 @And he who had the five talents came with his other five talents, saying, Lord, you gave into my care five talents: see, I have got five more.

bbe@Matthew:25:24 @And he who had had the one talent came and said, Lord, I had knowledge that you are a hard man, getting in grain where you have not put seed, and making profits for which you have done no work:

bbe@Matthew:25:25 @And I was in fear, and went away, and put your talent in the earth: here is what is yours.

bbe@Matthew:25:26 @But his lord in answer said to him, You are a bad and unready servant; if you had knowledge that I get in grain where I did not put seed, and make profits for which I have done no work,

bbe@Matthew:25:30 @And put out the servant who is of no profit into the outer dark: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

bbe@Matthew:25:32 @And before him all the nations will come together; and they will be parted one from another, as the sheep are parted from the goats by the keeper.

bbe@Matthew:25:34 @Then will the King say to those on his right, Come, you who have the blessing of my Father, into the kingdom made ready for you before the world was:

bbe@Matthew:25:40 @And the King will make answer and say to them, Truly I say to you, Because you did it to the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.

bbe@Matthew:26:3 @Then the chief priests and the rulers of the people came together in the house of the high priest, who was named Caiaphas.

bbe@Matthew:26:4 @And they made designs together to take Jesus by some trick, and put him to death.

bbe@Matthew:26:7 @There came to him a woman having a bottle of perfume of great price, and she put the perfume on his head when he was seated at table.

bbe@Matthew:26:13 @Truly I say to you, Wherever this good news goes out in all the world, what this woman has done will be talked of in memory of her.

bbe@Matthew:26:17 @Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where are we to make ready for you to take the Passover meal?

bbe@Matthew:26:29 @But I say to you that from now I will not take of this fruit of the vine, till that day when I take it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

bbe@Matthew:26:36 @Then comes Jesus with them to a place named Gethsemane, and says to his disciples, Be seated here, while I go over there for prayer.

bbe@Matthew:26:38 @Then says he to them, My soul is very sad, even to death: keep watch with me here.

bbe@Matthew:26:39 @And he went forward a little, and falling down on his face in prayer, he said, O my Father, if it is possible, let this cup go from me; but let not my pleasure, but yours be done.

bbe@Matthew:26:42 @Again, a second time he went away, and said in prayer, O my Father, if this may not go from me without my taking it, let your pleasure be done.

bbe@Matthew:26:53 @Does it not seem possible to you that if I make request to my Father he will even now send me an army of angels?

bbe@Matthew:26:57 @And those who had made Jesus prisoner took him away to the house of Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and those in authority over the people had come together.

bbe@Matthew:26:61 @But later there came two who said, This man said, I am able to give the Temple of God to destruction, and to put it up again in three days.

bbe@Matthew:26:71 @And when he had gone out into the doorway, another saw him and says to those who were there, This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.

bbe@Matthew:26:74 @Then with curses and oaths he said, I have no knowledge of the man. And straight away there came the cry of a cock.

bbe@Matthew:27:1 @Now when it was morning, all the chief priests and those in authority took thought together with the purpose of putting Jesus to death.

bbe@Matthew:27:7 @And they made a decision to get with the silver the potter's field, as a place for the dead of other countries.

bbe@Matthew:27:17 @So when they came together, Pilate said to them, Whom will you have? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is named Christ?

bbe@Matthew:27:27 @Then the ruler's armed men took Jesus into the open square, and got all their band together.

bbe@Matthew:27:36 @And they were seated there watching him.

bbe@Matthew:27:42 @A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will have faith in him.

bbe@Matthew:27:50 @And Jesus gave another loud cry, and gave up his spirit.

bbe@Matthew:27:51 @And the curtain of the Temple was parted in two from end to end; and there was an earth-shock; and the rocks were broken;

bbe@Matthew:27:55 @And a number of women were there, watching from a distance, who had come with Jesus from Galilee, waiting on his needs.

bbe@Matthew:27:56 @Among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary, the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

bbe@Matthew:27:57 @And in the evening, there came a man of wealth from Arimathaea, Joseph by name, who was a disciple of Jesus:

bbe@Matthew:27:61 @And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, seated by the place of the dead.

bbe@Matthew:27:62 @Now on the day after the getting ready of the Passover, the chief priests and Pharisees came together to Pilate,

bbe@Matthew:27:64 @Give orders, then, that the place where his body is may be made safe till the third day, for fear that his disciples come and take him away secretly and say to the people, He has come back from the dead: and the last error will be worse than the first.

bbe@Matthew:27:66 @So they went, and made safe the place where his body was, putting a stamp on the stone, and the watchmen were with them.

bbe@Matthew:28:1 @Now late on the Sabbath, when the dawn of the first day of the week was near, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the place where his body was.

bbe@Matthew:28:2 @And there was a great earth-shock; for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, rolling back the stone, took his seat on it.

bbe@Matthew:28:6 @He is not here, for he has come to life again, even as he said. Come, see the Lord's resting-place.

bbe@Matthew:28:7 @And go quickly and give his disciples the news that he has come back from the dead, and is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him, as I have said to you.

bbe@Matthew:28:10 @Then said Jesus to them, Have no fear: go and give word to my brothers to go into Galilee, and there they will see me.

bbe@Matthew:28:12 @And when they had come together with those in authority, and had made their decision, they gave much money to the watchmen, saying,

bbe@Matthew:28:16 @But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had given them orders to go.

bbe@Matthew:28:19 @Go then, and make disciples of all the nations, giving them baptism in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit:

bbe@Mark:1:5 @And there went out to him all the people of Judaea, and all those of Jerusalem, and they were given baptism by him in the river Jordan, saying that they were sinners.

bbe@Mark:1:6 @And John was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather band about him; and his food was locusts and honey.

bbe@Mark:1:7 @And he said to them all, There is one coming after me who is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo.

bbe@Mark:1:16 @And going by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew, the brother of Simon, putting a net into the sea: for they were fishermen.

bbe@Mark:1:17 @And Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

bbe@Mark:1:19 @And going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were in their boat stitching up their nets.

bbe@Mark:1:20 @And he said, Come after me: and they went away from their father Zebedee, who was in the boat with the servants, and came after him.

bbe@Mark:1:23 @And there was in their Synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he gave a cry,

bbe@Mark:1:27 @And they were all greatly surprised, so that they put questions to one another, saying, What is this? a new teaching! with authority he gives orders even to the unclean spirits, and they do what he says.

bbe@Mark:1:28 @And news of him went out quickly everywhere into all parts of Galilee round about.

bbe@Mark:1:30 @Now Simon's wife's mother was ill, with a burning heat; and they gave him word of her:

bbe@Mark:1:31 @And he came and took her by the hand, lifting her up; and she became well, and took care of their needs.

bbe@Mark:1:33 @And all the town had come together at the door.

bbe@Mark:1:35 @And in the morning, a long time before daylight, he got up and went out to a quiet place, and there he gave himself up to prayer.

bbe@Mark:1:38 @And he said to them, Let us go to other parts into the nearest towns, so that I may give teaching there, because for this purpose I came.

bbe@Mark:1:45 @But he went out, and made it public, giving an account of it everywhere, so that Jesus was no longer able to go openly into a town, but was outside in the waste land; and they came to him from every part.

bbe@Mark:2:2 @And a great number had come together, so that there was no longer room for them, no, not even about the door: and he gave them teaching.

bbe@Mark:2:4 @And when they were unable to get near him because of all the people, they got the roof uncovered where he was: and when it was broken up, they let down the bed on which the man was.

bbe@Mark:2:6 @But there were certain of the scribes seated there, and reasoning in their hearts,

bbe@Mark:2:14 @And when he went by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and he said to him, Come with me. And he got up, and went with him.

bbe@Mark:2:15 @And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.

bbe@Mark:3:1 @And he went again into the Synagogue; and there was a man there whose hand was dead.

bbe@Mark:3:6 @And the Pharisees went out, and straight away made designs with the Herodians about how they might put him to death.

bbe@Mark:3:8 @And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and the other side of Jordan, and the country about Tyre and Sidon, a great number, hearing what great things he did, came to him.

bbe@Mark:3:14 @And he took twelve to be with him, so that he might send them out as preachers,

bbe@Mark:3:17 @And to James, the son of Zebedee, and John, the brother of James, he gave the second name of Boanerges, which is, Sons of thunder:

bbe@Mark:3:20 @And he went into a house. And the people came together again, so that they were not even able to take bread.

bbe@Mark:3:24 @If there is division in a kingdom, that kingdom will come to destruction;

bbe@Mark:3:25 @And if there is division in a house, that house will come to destruction;

bbe@Mark:3:26 @And if Satan is at war with himself, and there is division in him, he will not keep his place but will come to an end.

bbe@Mark:3:31 @And his mother and brothers came and were outside, and sent for him, requesting to see him.

bbe@Mark:3:32 @And a great number were seated round him; and they said to him, See, your mother and your brothers are outside looking for you.

bbe@Mark:3:33 @And he said in answer, Who are my mother and my brothers?

bbe@Mark:3:34 @And looking round at those who were seated about him, he said, See, my mother and my brothers!

bbe@Mark:3:35 @Whoever does God's pleasure, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

bbe@Mark:4:5 @And some went on the stones, where it had not much earth; and it came up straight away, because the earth was not deep:

bbe@Mark:4:13 @And he said to them, If you are not clear about this story, how will you be clear about the others?

bbe@Mark:4:15 @And these are they by the wayside, where the word is planted; and when they have given ear, the Evil One comes straight away and takes away the word which has been planted in them.

bbe@Mark:4:18 @And others are those planted among the thorns; these are they who have given ear to the word,

bbe@Mark:4:19 @And the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, and the desire for other things coming in, put a stop to the growth of the word, and it gives no fruit.

bbe@Mark:4:22 @There is nothing covered which will not be seen openly, and nothing has been made secret which will not come to light.

bbe@Mark:4:28 @The earth gives fruit by herself; first the leaf, then the head, then the full grain.

bbe@Mark:4:35 @And on that day, when the evening had come, he said to them, Let us go over to the other side.

bbe@Mark:4:36 @And going away from the people, they took him with them, as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.

bbe@Mark:4:39 @And he came out of his sleep, and gave strong orders to the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be at rest. And the wind went down, and there was a great calm.

bbe@Mark:4:41 @And their fear was great, and they said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea do his orders?

bbe@Mark:5:1 @And they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gerasenes.

bbe@Mark:5:2 @And when he had got out of the boat, straight away there came to him from the place of the dead a man with an unclean spirit.

bbe@Mark:5:9 @And Jesus said, What is your name? And he made answer, My name is Legion, because there are a great number of us.

bbe@Mark:5:11 @Now on the mountain side there was a great herd of pigs getting their food.

bbe@Mark:5:13 @And he let them do it. And the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea, about two thousand of them; and they came to their death in the sea.

bbe@Mark:5:21 @And when Jesus had gone over again in the boat to the other side, a great number of people came to him: and he was by the sea.

bbe@Mark:5:23 @And made strong prayers to him, saying, My little daughter is near to death: it is my prayer that you will come and put your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and have life.

bbe@Mark:5:27 @When she had news of the things which Jesus did, went among the people coming after him, and put her hand on his robe.

bbe@Mark:5:29 @And straight away the fountain of her blood was stopped, and she had a feeling in her body that her disease had gone and she was well.

bbe@Mark:5:32 @And on his looking round to see her who had done this thing,

bbe@Mark:5:33 @The woman, shaking with fear, conscious of what had been done to her, came and, falling on her face before him, gave him a true account of everything.

bbe@Mark:5:34 @And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be free from your disease.

bbe@Mark:5:37 @And he did not let anyone come with him, but Peter and James and John, the brother of James.

bbe@Mark:5:40 @And they were laughing at him. But he, having sent them all out, took the father of the child and her mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was.

bbe@Mark:5:41 @And taking her by the hand, he said to her, Talitha cumi, which is, My child, I say to you, Get up.

bbe@Mark:5:43 @And he gave them special orders that they were not to say anything of this; and he said that some food was to be given to her.

bbe@Mark:6:1 @And he went away from there, and came into his country; and his disciples went with him.

bbe@Mark:6:2 @And when the Sabbath day had come, he was teaching in the Synagogue; and a number of people hearing him were surprised, saying, From where did this man get these things? and, What is the wisdom given to this man, and what are these works of power done by his hands?

bbe@Mark:6:3 @Is not this the woodworker, the son of Mary, and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were bitter against him.

bbe@Mark:6:4 @And Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour, but in his country, and among his relations, and in his family.

bbe@Mark:6:5 @And he was unable to do any work of power there, but only to put his hands on one or two persons who were ill, and make them well.

bbe@Mark:6:10 @And he said to them, Wherever you go into a house, make that your resting-place till you go away.

bbe@Mark:6:14 @And king Herod had news of him, because his name was on the lips of all; and he said, John the Baptist has come back from the dead, and for this reason these powers are working in him

bbe@Mark:6:15 @But others said, It is Elijah. And others said, It is a prophet, even like one of the prophets.

bbe@Mark:6:16 @But Herod, when he had news of it, said, John, whom I put to death, has come back from the dead.

bbe@Mark:6:17 @For Herod himself had sent men out to take John and put him in prison, because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, whom he had taken for himself.

bbe@Mark:6:18 @For John said to Herod, It is wrong for you to have your brother's wife.

bbe@Mark:6:19 @And Herodias was bitter against him, desiring to put him to death; but she was not able;

bbe@Mark:6:20 @For Herod was in fear of John, being conscious that he was an upright and holy man, and kept him safe. And hearing him, he was much troubled; and he gave ear to him gladly.

bbe@Mark:6:21 @And the chance came when Herod on his birthday gave a feast to his lords, and the high captains, and the chief men of Galilee;

bbe@Mark:6:22 @And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and did a dance, Herod and those who were at table with him were pleased with her; and the king said to the girl, Make a request for anything and I will give it you.

bbe@Mark:6:23 @And he took an oath, saying to her, Whatever is your desire I will give it to you, even half of my kingdom.

bbe@Mark:6:24 @And she went out and said to her mother, What is my request to be? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

bbe@Mark:6:26 @And the king was very sad; but because of his oaths, and those who were with him at table, he would not say 'No' to her.

bbe@Mark:6:28 @And came back with the head on a plate, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.

bbe@Mark:6:30 @And the twelve came together to Jesus; and they gave him an account of all the things they had done, and all they had been teaching.

bbe@Mark:6:31 @And he said to them, Come away by yourselves to a quiet place, and take a rest for a time. Because there were a great number coming and going, and they had no time even for food.

bbe@Mark:6:33 @And the people saw them going, and a number of them, having knowledge who they were, went running there together on foot from all the towns, and got there before them.

bbe@Mark:6:45 @And straight away he made his disciples get into the boat, and go before him to the other side to Beth-saida, while he himself sent the people away.

bbe@Mark:6:55 @And went running through all the country round about, and took on their beds those who were ill, to where it was said that he was.

bbe@Mark:6:56 @And wherever he went, into small towns, or great towns, or into the country, they took those who were ill into the market-places, requesting him that they might put their hands even on the edge of his robe: and all those who did so were made well.

bbe@Mark:7:1 @And there came together to him the Pharisees and certain of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem,

bbe@Mark:7:4 @And when they come from the market-place, they take no food till their hands are washed; and a number of other orders there are, which have been handed down to them to keep--washings of cups and pots and brass vessels.

bbe@Mark:7:5 @And the Pharisees and the scribes put the question to him, Why do your disciples not keep the rules of the fathers, but take their bread with unwashed hands?

bbe@Mark:7:10 @For Moses said, Give honour to your father and mother, and, He who says evil of father or mother, let him have the punishment of death:

bbe@Mark:7:11 @But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is Corban, that is to say, Given to God,

bbe@Mark:7:12 @You no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother;

bbe@Mark:7:13 @Making the word of God of no effect by your rule, which you have given: and a number of other such things you do.

bbe@Mark:7:15 @There is nothing outside the man which, going into him, is able to make him unclean: but the things which come out of the man are those which make the man unclean.

bbe@Mark:7:24 @And he went away from there to the country of Tyre and Sidon. And he went into a house, desiring that no man might have knowledge of it: and he was not able to keep it secret.

bbe@Mark:7:26 @Now the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by birth: and she made a request to him that he would send the evil spirit out of her daughter.

bbe@Mark:7:27 @And he said to her, Let the children first have their food: for it is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.

bbe@Mark:7:29 @And he said to her, For this saying go your way; the evil spirit has gone out of your daughter.

bbe@Mark:7:30 @And she went away to her house, and saw the child on the bed, and the evil spirit gone out.

bbe@Mark:8:1 @In those days again, when there was a great mass of people and they had no food, he made his disciples come to him and said to them,

bbe@Mark:8:4 @And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?

bbe@Mark:8:9 @And there were about four thousand people: and he sent them away.

bbe@Mark:8:13 @And he went away from them, and again got into the boat and went across to the other side.

bbe@Mark:8:15 @And he said to them, Take care to be on the watch against the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.

bbe@Mark:8:16 @And they said to one another, We have no bread.

bbe@Mark:8:28 @And they made answer, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but others, One of the prophets.

bbe@Mark:8:34 @And turning to the mass of people with his disciples, he said to them, If any man has the desire to come after me, let him give up all other desires, and take up his cross and come after me.

bbe@Mark:8:38 @Whoever has a feeling of shame because of me and my words in this false and evil generation, the Son of man will have a feeling of shame because of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

bbe@Mark:9:1 @And he said to them, Truly I say to you, There are some here who will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God come with power.

bbe@Mark:9:4 @And there came before them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

bbe@Mark:9:5 @And Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tents; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

bbe@Mark:9:18 @And wherever it takes him, it puts him down violently, streaming at the lips and twisted with pain; and his strength goes from him; and I made a request to your disciples to send it out, and they were not able.

bbe@Mark:9:21 @And Jesus questioning the father said, How long has he been like this? And he said, From a child.

bbe@Mark:9:24 @Straight away the father of the child gave a cry, saying, I have faith; make my feeble faith stronger.

bbe@Mark:9:25 @And when Jesus saw that the people came running together, he gave orders to the unclean spirit, saying to him, You, spirit, who are the cause of his loss of voice and hearing, I say to you, come out of him, and never again go into him.

bbe@Mark:9:30 @And they went out from there, through Galilee; and it was his desire that no man might have knowledge of it;

bbe@Mark:9:39 @But Jesus said, Say not so: for there is no man who will do a great work in my name, and be able at the same time to say evil of me.

bbe@Mark:9:48 @Where their worm is ever living and the fire is not put out.

bbe@Mark:9:50 @Salt is good; but if the taste goes from it, how will you make it salt again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace one with another.

bbe@Mark:10:1 @And he got up, and went into the country of Judaea on the other side of Jordan: and great numbers of people came together to him again; and, as was his way, he gave them teaching.

bbe@Mark:10:4 @And they said to him, Moses let us give her a statement in writing, and be free from her.

bbe@Mark:10:7 @For this cause will a man go away from his father and mother, and be joined to his wife;

bbe@Mark:10:9 @Let not that which has been joined together by God be parted by man

bbe@Mark:10:11 @And he said to them, Whoever puts away his wife and takes another, is false to his wife;

bbe@Mark:10:12 @And if she herself puts away her husband and takes another, she is false to her husband.

bbe@Mark:10:19 @You have knowledge of what is said in the law, Do not put any one to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Do not get money by deceit, Give honour to your father and mother.

bbe@Mark:10:21 @And Jesus, looking on him and loving him, said, There is one thing needed: go, get money for your goods, and give it to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven: and come with me.

bbe@Mark:10:29 @Jesus said, Truly I say to you, There is no man who has given up house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or land, because of me and the good news,

bbe@Mark:10:30 @Who will not get a hundred times as much now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and land--though with great troubles; and, in the world to come, eternal life.

bbe@Mark:10:35 @And there came to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying to him, Master, will you give us whatever may be our request?

bbe@Mark:11:5 @And some of those who were there said to them, What are you doing, taking the ass?

bbe@Mark:11:8 @And a great number put down their clothing in the way; and others put down branches which they had taken from the fields.

bbe@Mark:11:10 @A blessing on the coming kingdom of our father David: Glory in the highest.

bbe@Mark:11:15 @And they came to Jerusalem; and he went into the Temple, and sent out those who were trading there, overturning the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who were offering doves for money;

bbe@Mark:11:25 @And whenever you make a prayer, let there be forgiveness in your hearts, if you have anything against anyone; so that you may have forgiveness for your sins from your Father who is in heaven.

bbe@Mark:11:27 @And they came again to Jerusalem: and while he was walking in the Temple, there came to him the chief priests and the scribes and those in authority:

bbe@Mark:12:1 @And he gave them teaching in the form of stories. A man had a vine-garden planted, and put a wall about it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and put up a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.

bbe@Mark:12:4 @And again he sent to them another servant; and they gave him wounds on the head, and were very cruel to him.

bbe@Mark:12:5 @And he sent another; and they put him to death: and a number of others, whipping some, and putting some to death.

bbe@Mark:12:7 @But those workmen said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death, and the heritage will be ours.

bbe@Mark:12:9 @What then will the master of the garden do? He will come and put the workmen to death, and will give the garden into the hands of others.

bbe@Mark:12:13 @Then they sent to him certain of the Pharisees and the Herodians, so that they might make use of his words to take him by a trick

bbe@Mark:12:18 @And there came to him Sadducees, who say there is no coming back from the dead; and they put a question to him, saying,

bbe@Mark:12:19 @Master, in the law Moses says, If a man's brother comes to his end, and has a wife still living and no child, it is right for his brother to take his wife, and get a family for his brother.

bbe@Mark:12:20 @There were seven brothers: and the first took a wife, and at his death there were no offspring;

bbe@Mark:12:21 @And the second took her, and at his death there were no offspring; and the third the same:

bbe@Mark:12:22 @And all the seven had no seed. Last of all the woman herself came to her death.

bbe@Mark:12:23 @In the future life, when they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for the seven had her for a wife.

bbe@Mark:12:28 @And one of the scribes came, and hearing their argument together, and seeing that he had given them a good answer, put the question to him, Which law is the first of all?

bbe@Mark:12:31 @The second is this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself. There is no other law greater than these.

bbe@Mark:12:32 @And the scribe said to him, Truly, Master, you have well said that he is one, and there is no other but he:

bbe@Mark:12:41 @And he took a seat by the place where the money was kept, and saw how the people put money into the boxes: and a number who had wealth put in much.

bbe@Mark:12:42 @And there came a poor widow, and she put in two little bits of money, which make a farthing.

bbe@Mark:12:44 @Because they all put in something out of what they had no need for; but she out of her need put in all she had, even all her living.

bbe@Mark:13:2 @And Jesus said to him, Do you see these great buildings? there is not one stone here resting on another which will not be overturned.

bbe@Mark:13:8 @Nation will go to war with nation, and kingdom with kingdom: there will be earth-shocks in different places; there will be times when there is no food; these things are the first of the troubles.

bbe@Mark:13:12 @And brother will give up brother to death, and the father his child; and children will go against their fathers and mothers, and put them to death.

bbe@Mark:13:14 @But when you see the unclean thing which makes destruction, in the place where it has no right to be (let this be clear to the reader), then let those who are in Judaea go quickly to the mountains:

bbe@Mark:13:17 @And it will be hard for women who are with child and for her who has a baby at the breast in those days.

bbe@Mark:13:19 @For in those days there will be sorrow, such as there has not been from the time when God made the world till now, and will not ever be again.

bbe@Mark:13:21 @And then if any man says to you, See, here is Christ; or, See, there; have no faith in it:

bbe@Mark:13:22 @Because there will be false Christs and false prophets, and they will give signs and wonders in the hope of turning even the saints from the true way.

bbe@Mark:13:24 @But in those days, after that time of trouble, the sun will be made dark and the moon will not give her light,

bbe@Mark:13:27 @And then he will send out the angels, and will get together his saints from the four winds, from the farthest part of the earth to the farthest part of heaven.

bbe@Mark:13:32 @But of that day or that hour no one has knowledge, not even the angels in heaven, or the Son, but the Father.

bbe@Mark:13:34 @It is as when a man who is in another country for a time, having gone away from his house, and given authority to his servants and to everyone his work, gives the porter an order to keep watch.

bbe@Mark:14:2 @But they said, Not while the feast is going on, for fear there may be trouble among the people.

bbe@Mark:14:3 @And while he was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, seated at table, there came a woman with a bottle of perfumed oil of great price; and when the bottle was broken she put the perfume on his head.

bbe@Mark:14:5 @We might have got more than three hundred pence for it, and given the money to the poor. And they said things against her among themselves.

bbe@Mark:14:6 @But Jesus said, Let her be; why are you troubling her? she has done a kind act to me.

bbe@Mark:14:9 @And truly I say to you, Wherever the good news goes out through all the earth, what this woman has done will be talked of in memory of her.

bbe@Mark:14:12 @And on the first day of unleavened bread, when the Passover lamb is put to death, his disciples said to him, Where are we to go and make ready for you to take the Passover meal?

bbe@Mark:14:13 @And he sent two of his disciples, and said to them, Go into the town, and there will come to you a man with a vessel of water: go after him;

bbe@Mark:14:14 @And wherever he goes in, say to the owner of the house, The Master says, Where is my guest-room, where I may take the Passover with my disciples?

bbe@Mark:14:15 @And he will take you up himself to a great room with a table and seats: there make ready for us.

bbe@Mark:14:29 @But Peter said to him, Though the others may be turned away from you, I will not.

bbe@Mark:14:32 @And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he said to his disciples, Be seated here while I say a prayer.

bbe@Mark:14:34 @And he said to them, My soul is very sad, even to death: be here a little time, and keep watch.

bbe@Mark:14:36 @And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to you; take away this cup from me: but even so let not my pleasure, but yours be done.

bbe@Mark:14:53 @And they took Jesus away to the high priest; and there came together with him all the chief priests and those in authority and the scribes.

bbe@Mark:14:58 @He said in our hearing, I will put an end to this Temple which is made with hands, and in three days I will make another without hands.

bbe@Mark:14:68 @But he said, I have no knowledge of him, or of what you are saying: and he went out into the doorway; and there came the cry of a cock.

bbe@Mark:15:7 @And there was one named Barabbas, in prison with those who had gone against the government and in the fight had taken life.

bbe@Mark:15:8 @And the people went up, requesting him to do as he had done for them in other years.

bbe@Mark:15:16 @And the men of the army took him away into the square in front of the building which is the Praetorium, and they got together all the band.

bbe@Mark:15:21 @And they made one, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who was going by, coming from the country, go with them, so that he might take his cross.

bbe@Mark:15:31 @In the same way the chief priests, laughing at him among themselves with the scribes, said, A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself.

bbe@Mark:15:40 @And there were women watching from a distance: among them were Mary Magdalene, and Mary, the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome,

bbe@Mark:15:41 @Who went with him when he was in Galilee and took care of him; and a number of other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.

bbe@Mark:15:43 @There came Joseph of Arimathaea, a responsible man in high honour, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God; and he went in to Pilate without fear, and made a request for the body of Jesus.

bbe@Mark:15:47 @And Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joses, saw where he was put.

bbe@Mark:16:1 @And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of James, and Salome, got spices, so that they might come and put them on him.

bbe@Mark:16:2 @And very early after dawn on the first day of the week, they came at the time of the coming up of the sun to the place where the body had been put.

bbe@Mark:16:6 @And he said to them, Do not be troubled: you are looking for Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been put to death on the cross; he has come back from the dead; he is not here: see, the place where they put him!

bbe@Mark:16:7 @But go, say to his disciples and to Peter, He goes before you into Galilee: there you will see him, as he said to you.

bbe@Mark:16:11 @And they, when it came to their ears that he was living, and had been seen by her, had no belief in it.

bbe@Mark:16:12 @And after these things he was seen in another form by two of them, while they were walking on their way into the country.

bbe@Mark:16:18 @They will take up snakes, and if there is poison in their drink, it will do them no evil; they will put their hands on those who are ill, and they will get well.

bbe@Mark:16:20 @And they went out, preaching everywhere, the Lord working with them, and giving witness to the word by the signs which came after. So be it.

bbe@Luke:1:1 @As a number of attempts have been made to put together in order an account of those events which took place among us,

bbe@Luke:1:2 @As they were handed down to us by those who saw them from the first and were preachers of the word,

bbe@Luke:1:5 @In the days of Herod, king of Judaea, there was a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the order of Abijah; and he had a wife of the family of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.

bbe@Luke:1:17 @And he will go before his face in the spirit and power of Elijah, turning the hearts of fathers to their children, and wrongdoers to the way of righteousness; to make ready a people whose hearts have been turned to the Lord.

bbe@Luke:1:24 @After that time, Elisabeth, being certain that she was to become a mother, kept herself from men's eyes for five months, saying,

bbe@Luke:1:28 @And the angel came in to her and said, Peace be with you, to whom special grace has been given; the Lord is with you.

bbe@Luke:1:29 @But she was greatly troubled at his words, and said to herself, What may be the purpose of these words?

bbe@Luke:1:30 @And the angel said to her, Have no fear, Mary, for you have God's approval.

bbe@Luke:1:32 @He will be great, and will be named the Son of the Most High: and the Lord God will give him the kingdom of David, his father:

bbe@Luke:1:33 @He will have rule over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.

bbe@Luke:1:35 @And the angel in answer said to her, The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will come to rest on you, and so that which will come to birth will be named holy, Son of God.

bbe@Luke:1:36 @Even now Elisabeth, who is of your family, is to be a mother, though she is old: and this is the sixth month with her who was without children.

bbe@Luke:1:37 @For there is nothing which God is not able to do.

bbe@Luke:1:40 @And went into the house of Zacharias and took Elisabeth in her arms.

bbe@Luke:1:41 @And when the voice of Mary came to the ears of Elisabeth, the baby made a sudden move inside her; then Elisabeth was full of the Holy Spirit,

bbe@Luke:1:43 @How is it that the mother of my Lord comes to me?

bbe@Luke:1:45 @Happy will she be who had faith that the things which the Lord has said to her will be done.

bbe@Luke:1:55 @As he gave his word to our fathers.

bbe@Luke:1:56 @And Mary was with her for about three months and then went back to her house.

bbe@Luke:1:58 @And it came to the ears of her neighbours and relations that the Lord had been very good to her, and they took part in her joy.

bbe@Luke:1:59 @And on the eighth day they came to see to the circumcision of the child, and they would have given him the name of Zacharias, his father's name;

bbe@Luke:1:60 @But his mother made answer and said, No, his name is John.

bbe@Luke:1:62 @And they made signs to his father, to say what name was to be given to him.

bbe@Luke:1:65 @And fear came on all those who were living round about them: and there was much talk about all these things in all the hill-country of Judaea.

bbe@Luke:1:67 @And his father, Zacharias, was full of the Holy Spirit, and with the voice of a prophet said these words:

bbe@Luke:1:72 @To do acts of mercy to our fathers and to keep in mind his holy word,

bbe@Luke:1:73 @The oath which he made to Abraham, our father,

bbe@Luke:2:1 @Now it came about in those days that an order went out from Caesar Augustus that there was to be a numbering of all the world.

bbe@Luke:2:5 @To be put on the list with Mary, his future wife, who was about to become a mother.

bbe@Luke:2:6 @And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth.

bbe@Luke:2:7 @And she had her first son; and folding him in linen, she put him to rest in the place where the cattle had their food, because there was no room for them in the house.

bbe@Luke:2:8 @And in the same country there were keepers of sheep in the fields, watching over their flock by night.

bbe@Luke:2:12 @And this is the sign to you: you will see a young child folded in linen, in the place where the cattle have their food.

bbe@Luke:2:13 @And suddenly there was with the angel a great band of spirits from heaven, giving praise to God, and saying,

bbe@Luke:2:15 @And when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, the keepers of the sheep said to one another, Let us go now to Beth-lehem, and see this thing which has come about, which the Lord has made clear to us.

bbe@Luke:2:16 @And they came quickly, and saw Mary and Joseph, and the child in the place where the cattle had their food.

bbe@Luke:2:19 @But Mary kept all these words in her heart, and gave much thought to them.

bbe@Luke:2:23 @(As it says in the law of the Lord, Every mother's first male child is to be holy to the Lord),

bbe@Luke:2:24 @And to make an offering, as it is ordered in the law of the Lord, of two doves or other young birds.

bbe@Luke:2:25 @And there was then in Jerusalem a man whose name was Simeon; and he was an upright man, fearing God and waiting for the comfort of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was on him.

bbe@Luke:2:27 @And full of the Spirit he came into the Temple; and when the father and mother came in with the child Jesus, to do with him what was ordered by the law,

bbe@Luke:2:33 @And his father and mother were full of wonder at the things which were said about him.

bbe@Luke:2:34 @And Simeon gave them his blessing and said to Mary, his mother, See, this child will be the cause of the downfall and the lifting up of great numbers of people in Israel, and he will be a sign against which hard words will be said;

bbe@Luke:2:36 @And there was one, Anna, a woman prophet, the daughter of Phanuel, of the family of Asher (she was very old, and after seven years of married life

bbe@Luke:2:39 @And when they had done all the things which were ordered by the law of the Lord, they went back to Galilee, to Nazareth, the town where they were living.

bbe@Luke:2:41 @And every year his father and mother went to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.

bbe@Luke:2:45 @And seeing that he was not there, they went back to Jerusalem, to make search for him.

bbe@Luke:2:48 @And when they saw him they were surprised, and his mother said to him, Son, why have you done this to us? see, your father and I have been looking for you with sorrow.

bbe@Luke:2:49 @And he said to them, Why were you looking for me? was it not clear to you that my right place was in my Father's house?

bbe@Luke:2:51 @And he went down with them and came to Nazareth; and did as he was ordered: and his mother kept all these words in her heart.

bbe@Luke:3:1 @Now in the fifteenth year of the rule of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being ruler of Judaea, and Herod being king of Galilee, his brother Philip king of the country of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias king of Abilene,

bbe@Luke:3:8 @Make clear by your acts that your hearts have been changed; and do not say to yourselves, We have Abraham for our father: for I say to you that God is able from these stones to make children of Abraham.

bbe@Luke:3:18 @And so comforting them with these and other words, he gave the good news to the people;

bbe@Luke:3:19 @But Herod the king, because John had made a protest on account of Herodias, his brother's wife, and other evil things which Herod had done,

bbe@Luke:4:9 @And he took him to Jerusalem and put him on the highest point of the Temple and said to him, If you are the Son of God, let yourself go down from here; for it is said in the Writings,

bbe@Luke:4:16 @And he came to Nazareth, where he had been as a child, and he went, as his way was, into the Synagogue on the Sabbath, and got up to give a reading.

bbe@Luke:4:17 @And the book of the prophet Isaiah was given to him and, opening the book, he came on the place where it is said,

bbe@Luke:4:23 @And he said to them, Without doubt you will say to me, Let the medical man make himself well: the things which to our knowledge were done at Capernaum, do them here in your country.

bbe@Luke:4:25 @Truly I say to you, There were a number of widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up for three years and six months and there was no food in the land;

bbe@Luke:4:27 @And there were a number of lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and not one of them was made clean, but only Naaman the Syrian.

bbe@Luke:4:33 @And there was a man in the Synagogue who had an unclean spirit; and he gave a loud cry and said,

bbe@Luke:4:36 @And wonder came on them all and they said to one another, What are these words? for with authority and power he gives orders to the evil spirits and they come out.

bbe@Luke:4:37 @And there was much talk about him in all the places round about.

bbe@Luke:4:38 @And he got up and went out of the Synagogue and went into the house of Simon. And Simon's wife's mother was very ill with a burning heat; and in answer to their prayers for her

bbe@Luke:4:39 @He went near her, and with a sharp word he gave orders to the disease and it went away from her; and straight away she got up and took care of their needs.

bbe@Luke:4:43 @But he said to them, I have to give the good news of the kingdom of God in other towns, because that is why I was sent.

bbe@Luke:5:2 @And he saw two boats by the edge of the water, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets.

bbe@Luke:5:7 @And they made signs to their friends in the other boat to come to their help. And they came, and the two boats were so full that they were going down.

bbe@Luke:5:10 @And so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were working with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Have no fear; from this time forward you will be a fisher of men.

bbe@Luke:5:12 @And it came about that while he was in one of the towns, there was a leper there: and when he saw Jesus he went down on his face in prayer to him, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean

bbe@Luke:5:15 @But news of him went out all the more, in every direction, and great numbers of people came together to give hearing to his words and to be made well from their diseases.

bbe@Luke:5:17 @And it came about that on one of these days he was teaching; and some Pharisees and teachers of the law were seated there, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was with him, to make those who were ill free from their diseases.

bbe@Luke:5:19 @And because of the mass of people, there was no way to get him in; so they went up on the top of the house and let him down through the roof, on his bed, into the middle in front of Jesus.

bbe@Luke:5:27 @And after these things he went out, and saw Levi, a tax-farmer, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and said to him, Come after me.

bbe@Luke:5:29 @And Levi made a great feast for him in his house: and a great number of tax-farmers and others were seated at table with them.

bbe@Luke:6:6 @And it came about, on another Sabbath, that he went into the Synagogue and was teaching there. And a man was there whose right hand was dead.

bbe@Luke:6:11 @But they were full of wrath, and were talking together about what they might do to Jesus.

bbe@Luke:6:14 @Simon, to whom he gave the name of Peter, and Andrew, his brother, and James and John and Philip and Bartholomew

bbe@Luke:6:23 @Be glad in that day, and be lifted up for joy, for your reward in heaven will be great: for their fathers did these same things to the prophets.

bbe@Luke:6:26 @Unhappy are you when all men give you their approval: for so their fathers did to the false prophets.

bbe@Luke:6:29 @If a man gives you a blow on one side of your face, then let the other side be turned to him; from him who takes away your coat, do not keep back your robe.

bbe@Luke:6:31 @Do to others as you would have them do to you.

bbe@Luke:6:36 @Be full of pity, even as your Father is full of pity.

bbe@Luke:6:37 @Be not judges of others, and you will not be judged: do not give punishment to others, and you will not get punishment yourselves: make others free, and you will be made free:

bbe@Luke:6:39 @And he gave them teaching in the form of a story, saying, Is it possible for one blind man to be guide to another? will they not go falling together into a hole?

bbe@Luke:6:41 @And why do you take note of the grain of dust in your brother's eye, but take no note of the bit of wood which is in your eye?

bbe@Luke:6:42 @How will you say to your brother, Brother, let me take the grain of dust out of your eye, when you yourself do not see the bit of wood in your eye? O false one! first take the wood out of your eye and then you will see clearly to take the dust out of your brother's eye.

bbe@Luke:7:8 @For I, myself, am a man under authority, having men under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.

bbe@Luke:7:12 @Now when he came near the door of the town, a dead man was being taken out, the only son of his mother, who was a widow: and a great number of people from the town were with her.

bbe@Luke:7:13 @And when the Lord saw her, he had pity on her and said to her, Be not sad.

bbe@Luke:7:14 @And he came near, and put his hand on the stretcher where the dead man was: and those who were moving it came to a stop. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Get up.

bbe@Luke:7:15 @And the dead man got up, and words came from his lips. And he gave him to his mother.

bbe@Luke:7:19 @Then John sent two of his disciples to the Lord, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

bbe@Luke:7:20 @And when the men came to him they said, John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

bbe@Luke:7:21 @At that time, he made a number of people free from their diseases and their pains, and from evil spirits; and to others who were blind he gave back the use of their eyes.

bbe@Luke:7:30 @But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law were against the purpose of God for themselves, not having had his baptism.)

bbe@Luke:7:32 @They are like children who are seated in the market-place, crying out to one another, and saying, We made music for you, but you did not take part in the dance; we gave cries of sorrow, but you were not sad.

bbe@Luke:7:34 @The Son of man came feasting, and you say, Here is a lover of food and wine, a friend of tax-farmers and sinners.

bbe@Luke:7:35 @But wisdom is judged to be right by all her children.

bbe@Luke:7:37 @And there was a woman in the town who was a sinner; and when she had news that he was a guest in the Pharisee's house, she took a bottle of perfume,

bbe@Luke:7:38 @And went in and took her place at the back of him, near his feet, weeping, so that his feet were washed with the drops from her eyes, and with her hair she made them dry, and kissing his feet she put the perfume on them.

bbe@Luke:7:39 @Now when the Pharisee in whose house he was saw it, he said to himself, This man, if he was a prophet, would be conscious what sort of woman this is who has put her hands on him, that she is a sinner.

bbe@Luke:7:41 @And he said, Two men were in debt to a certain man of business: one had a debt of five hundred pence, and the other of fifty.

bbe@Luke:7:44 @And turning to the woman he said to Simon, You see this woman? I came into your house; you did not give me water for my feet: but she has been washing my feet with the drops from her eyes, and drying them with her hair.

bbe@Luke:7:47 @And so I say to you, She will have forgiveness for her sins which are great in number, because of her great love: but he who has small need of forgiveness gives little love.

bbe@Luke:7:48 @And he said to her, You have forgiveness for your sins.

bbe@Luke:8:3 @And Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's chief house-servant, and Susanna and a number of others, who gave him of their wealth for his needs.

bbe@Luke:8:4 @And when a great number of people came together, and men from every town went out to him, he gave them teaching in the form of a story:

bbe@Luke:8:10 @And he said, To you is given knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God; but to the others, they are given in stories, so that seeing, they may not see, and though they give hearing, the sense will not be clear to them.

bbe@Luke:8:19 @And his mother and his brothers came to him, and they were not able to get near him because of the great number of people.

bbe@Luke:8:20 @And someone said to him, Your mother and your brothers are outside desiring to see you.

bbe@Luke:8:21 @But he said to them in answer, My mother and my brothers are those who have knowledge of the word of God and do it.

bbe@Luke:8:22 @Now it came about on one of those days that he got into a boat with his disciples; and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the water: and they put out the boat.

bbe@Luke:8:25 @And he said to them, Where is your faith? And fear and wonder overcame them, and they said to one another, Who then is this, who gives orders even to the winds and the water and they do what he says?

bbe@Luke:8:27 @And when he had come to the land, there came to him a certain man from the town who had evil spirits; and for a long time he had had no clothing on, and was not living in a house but in the place of the dead.

bbe@Luke:8:32 @Now there was a great herd of pigs in that place, getting food on the mountain: and the evil spirits made a request to him that he would let them go into the pigs, and he let them.

bbe@Luke:8:33 @And the evil spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs: and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the water and came to destruction.

bbe@Luke:8:41 @Then there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler in the Synagogue: and he went down at the feet of Jesus, desiring him to come to his house;

bbe@Luke:8:43 @And a woman, who had had a flow of blood for twelve years, and had given all her money to medical men, and not one of them was able to make her well,

bbe@Luke:8:44 @Came after him and put her hand on the edge of his robe, and straight away the flowing of her blood was stopped.

bbe@Luke:8:47 @And when the woman saw that she was not able to keep it secret, she came, shaking with fear, and falling down before him she made clear before all the people the reason for her touching him, and how she was made well straight away.

bbe@Luke:8:48 @And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace.

bbe@Luke:8:51 @And when he came to the house he did not let any man go in with him, but only Peter and John and James, and the father of the girl and her mother.

bbe@Luke:8:52 @And all the people were weeping and crying for her; but he said, Do not be sad, for she is not dead, but sleeping.

bbe@Luke:8:54 @But he, taking her hand, said to her, My child, get up.

bbe@Luke:8:55 @And her spirit came back to her and she got up straight away: and he gave orders that food was to be given to her.

bbe@Luke:8:56 @And her father and mother were full of wonder, but he gave orders to them to say nothing about it to anyone.

bbe@Luke:9:1 @And getting the twelve together, he gave them power and authority over all evil spirits and over diseases, to make them well.

bbe@Luke:9:2 @And he sent them out to be preachers of the kingdom of God, and to make well those who were ill.

bbe@Luke:9:7 @Now Herod the king had news of all these things: and he was in doubt, because it was said by some people that John had come back from the dead;

bbe@Luke:9:8 @And by some, that Elijah had come; and by others, that one of the old prophets had come back to life.

bbe@Luke:9:9 @And Herod said, I put John to death: but who is this, of whom such stories are given to me? And he had a desire to see him.

bbe@Luke:9:14 @For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them be seated in groups, about fifty to a group.

bbe@Luke:9:19 @And they, answering, said, John the Baptist; but others say Elijah; and others, that one of the old prophets has come back.

bbe@Luke:9:22 @Saying, The Son of man will undergo much and be put on one side by the rulers and the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and be put to death, and on the third day he will come back to life.

bbe@Luke:9:26 @For if any man has a feeling of shame because of me or of my words, the Son of man will have shame because of him when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

bbe@Luke:9:27 @But truly I say to you, Some of those who are here now will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God.

bbe@Luke:9:33 @And when they were about to go away from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah: having no knowledge of what he was saying.

bbe@Luke:9:35 @And there was a voice from the cloud saying, This is my Son, the man of my selection; give ear to him.

bbe@Luke:9:41 @And Jesus said, O generation without faith and false in heart, how long will I have to be with you and put up with you? let your son come here.

bbe@Luke:9:42 @And while he was coming, he was pushed violently down and twisted by the evil spirit. But Jesus gave sharp orders to the unclean spirit, and made the boy well, and gave him back to his father.

bbe@Luke:9:46 @Now there was a discussion among them about which of them would be the greatest.

bbe@Luke:9:53 @But they would not have him there, because he was clearly going to Jerusalem.

bbe@Luke:9:56 @And they went to another small town.

bbe@Luke:9:57 @And when they were on the way, a certain man said to him, I will come after you wherever you go.

bbe@Luke:9:58 @And Jesus said to him, Foxes have holes and the birds of the air have resting-places, but the Son of man has nowhere to put his head.

bbe@Luke:9:59 @And he said to another, Come after me. But he said, Lord, let me first go and give the last honours to my father.

bbe@Luke:9:61 @And another man said, I will come with you, Lord, but first let me say a last good-day to those who are at my house.

bbe@Luke:10:1 @Now after these things, the Lord made selection of seventy others and sent them before him, two together, into every town and place where he himself was about to come.

bbe@Luke:10:2 @And he said to them, There is much grain ready to be cut, but not enough workers: so make prayer to the Lord of the grain-fields that he will send workers to get in the grain.

bbe@Luke:10:6 @And if a son of peace is there, your peace will be with him: but if not, it will come back to you again.

bbe@Luke:10:10 @But if you go into a town where they will not have you, go out into the streets of it and say,

bbe@Luke:10:21 @In that same hour he was full of joy in the Holy Spirit and said, I give praise to you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have kept these things secret from the wise and the men of learning, and have made them clear to little children: for so, O Father, it was pleasing in your eyes.

bbe@Luke:10:22 @All things have been given to me by my Father: and no one has knowledge of the Son, but only the Father: and of the Father, but only the Son, and he to whom the Son will make it clear.

bbe@Luke:10:25 @And a certain teacher of the law got up and put him to the test, saying, Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life?

bbe@Luke:10:31 @And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he went by on the other side.

bbe@Luke:10:32 @And in the same way, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, went by on the other side.

bbe@Luke:10:33 @But a certain man of Samaria, journeying that way, came where he was, and when he saw him, he was moved with pity for him,

bbe@Luke:10:38 @Now, while they were on their way, he came to a certain town; and a woman named Martha took him into her house.

bbe@Luke:10:39 @And she had a sister, by name Mary, who took her seat at the Lord's feet and gave attention to his words.

bbe@Luke:10:40 @But Martha had her hands full of the work of the house, and she came to him and said, Lord, is it nothing to you that my sister has let me do all the work? Say to her that she is to give me some help.

bbe@Luke:10:41 @But the Lord, answering, said to her, Martha, Martha, you are full of care and troubled about such a number of things:

bbe@Luke:10:42 @Little is needed, or even one thing only: for Mary has taken that good part, which will not be taken away from her.

bbe@Luke:11:2 @And he said to them, When you say your prayers, say, Father, may your name be kept holy and your kingdom come.

bbe@Luke:11:11 @And which of you, being a father, will give a stone to his son, who makes request for bread? or for a fish, will give him a snake?

bbe@Luke:11:13 @If, then, you who are evil are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who make request to him?

bbe@Luke:11:16 @And others, testing him, were looking for a sign from heaven from him.

bbe@Luke:11:17 @But he, having knowledge of their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom in which there is division is made waste; and a house in which there is division comes to destruction.

bbe@Luke:11:23 @He who is not with me is against me, and he who will not give me help in getting people together is driving them away.

bbe@Luke:11:26 @Then he goes and gets seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they go in, and take their places there: and the last condition of that man is worse than the first.

bbe@Luke:11:29 @And when a great number of people came together to him, he said, This generation is an evil generation: it is looking for a sign and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah.

bbe@Luke:11:31 @The queen of the South will come up on the day of judging and give her decision against the men of this generation: for she came from the ends of the earth to give ear to the wisdom of Solomon; and now something greater than Solomon is here.

bbe@Luke:11:32 @The men of Nineveh will come up in the day of judging and give their decision against this generation: for they were turned away from their sins at the preaching of Jonah; but now something greater than Jonah is here.

bbe@Luke:11:42 @But a curse is on you, Pharisees! for you make men give a tenth of every sort of plant, and give no thought to right and the love of God; but it is right for you to do these things, and not let the others be undone.

bbe@Luke:11:45 @And one of the teachers of the law, answering, said to him, Master, in saying this, you give a bad name to us as to them.

bbe@Luke:11:46 @And he said, A curse is on you, teachers of the law! for while other men are crushed under the weight of the rules you make for them, you yourselves do not put so much as one finger to them.

bbe@Luke:11:47 @A curse is on you! for you make resting-places for the bodies of the prophets, but your fathers put them to death.

bbe@Luke:11:48 @So you are witnesses and give approval to the work of your fathers; for they put them to death and you make their last resting-places.

bbe@Luke:11:49 @For this reason the wisdom of God has said, I will send them prophets and teachers, and to some of them they will give death and cruel pains;

bbe@Luke:11:52 @A curse is on you, teachers of the law! for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you did not go in yourselves, and you got in the way of those who were going in.

bbe@Luke:12:1 @At that time, when thousands of the people had come together, in such numbers that they were crushing one another, he said first to his disciples, Have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees, which is deceit.

bbe@Luke:12:10 @And if anyone says a word against the Son of man, he will have forgiveness: but for him who says evil words against the Holy Spirit, there will be no forgiveness.

bbe@Luke:12:13 @And one of the people said to him, Master, give an order to my brother to make division of the heritage with me

bbe@Luke:12:18 @And he said, This I will do: I will take down my store-houses and make greater ones, and there I will put all my grain and my goods.

bbe@Luke:12:20 @But God said to him, You foolish one, tonight I will take your soul from you, and who then will be the owner of all the things which you have got together?

bbe@Luke:12:24 @Give thought to the ravens; they do not put seeds into the earth, or get together grain; they have no store-houses or buildings; and God gives them their food: of how much greater value are you than the birds!

bbe@Luke:12:30 @For the nations of the world go in search of all these things: but your Father has knowledge that you have need of them.

bbe@Luke:12:31 @But let your chief care be for his kingdom, and these other things will be given to you in addition.

bbe@Luke:12:32 @Have no fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

bbe@Luke:12:33 @Give what property you have in exchange for money, and give the money to the poor; make for yourselves money-bags which will not get old, wealth stored up in heaven which will be yours for ever, where thieves will not come nor worms put it to destruction.

bbe@Luke:12:34 @For where your wealth is, there will your heart be.

bbe@Luke:12:50 @But there is a baptism which I have to undergo; and how am I kept back till it is complete!

bbe@Luke:12:53 @They will be at war, the father against his son, and the son against his father; mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.

bbe@Luke:12:54 @Then he said to the people, When you see a cloud coming up in the west, straight away you say, There will be rain; and so it is.

bbe@Luke:12:55 @And when you see a south wind blowing, you say, There will be heat; and so it is.

bbe@Luke:13:1 @Now some people who were there at that time, gave him an account of how the blood of some Galilaeans had been mixed by Pilate with their offerings.

bbe@Luke:13:2 @And he, in answer, said to them, Are you of the opinion that these Galilaeans were worse than all other Galilaeans, because these things were done to them?

bbe@Luke:13:4 @Or those eighteen men who were crushed by the fall of the tower of Siloam, were they worse than all the other men living in Jerusalem?

bbe@Luke:13:6 @And he made up this story for them: A certain man had a fig-tree in his garden, and he came to get fruit from it, and there was no fruit.

bbe@Luke:13:11 @And there was a woman who had had a disease for eighteen years; she was bent, and was not able to make herself straight.

bbe@Luke:13:12 @And when Jesus saw her, he said to her, Woman, you are made free from your disease.

bbe@Luke:13:13 @And he put his hands on her, and she was made straight, and gave praise to God.

bbe@Luke:13:14 @And the ruler of the Synagogue was angry because Jesus had made her well on the Sabbath, and he said to the people, There are six days in which men may do work: so come on those days to be made well, and not on the Sabbath.

bbe@Luke:13:25 @When the master of the house has got up, and the door has been shut, and you, still outside, give blows on the door, saying, Lord, let us in; he will make answer and say, I have no knowledge of where you come from.

bbe@Luke:13:27 @But he will say, Truly, I have no knowledge of you or where you come from; go away from me, you workers of evil.

bbe@Luke:13:28 @There will be weeping and cries of sorrow when you see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are shut outside.

bbe@Luke:13:31 @At that time, certain Pharisees came to him and said, Go away from this place, because Herod's purpose is to put you to death.

bbe@Luke:13:34 @O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, putting to death the prophets, and stoning those who were sent to her! again and again would I have taken your children to myself, as a bird takes her young ones under her wings, but you would not!

bbe@Luke:14:2 @And a certain man was there who had a disease.

bbe@Luke:14:10 @But when you come, go and take the lowest seat, so that when the giver of the feast comes, he may say to you, Friend, come up higher; and then you will have honour in the eyes of all the others who are there.

bbe@Luke:14:12 @And he said to the master of the house, When you give a feast, do not send for your friends and your brothers and your family or your neighbours who have wealth, for they may give a feast for you, and so you will get a reward.

bbe@Luke:14:19 @And another said, I have got some cattle, and I am going to make a test of them: I am full of regret that I am unable to come.

bbe@Luke:14:20 @And another said, I have been married, and so I am not able to come.

bbe@Luke:14:22 @And the servant said, Lord, your orders have been done, and still there is room.

bbe@Luke:14:26 @And turning round, he said to them, If any man comes to me, and has not hate for his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, and even for his life, he may not be my disciple.

bbe@Luke:14:31 @Or what king, going to war with another king, will not first take thought if he will be strong enough, with ten thousand men, to keep off him who comes against him with twenty thousand?

bbe@Luke:14:32 @Or while the other is still a great distance away, he sends representatives requesting conditions of peace.

bbe@Luke:15:4 @What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if one of them gets loose and goes away, will not let the ninety-nine be in the waste land by themselves, and go after the wandering one, till he sees where it is?

bbe@Luke:15:7 @I say to you that even so there will be more joy in heaven when one sinner is turned away from his wrongdoing, than for ninety-nine good men, who have no need of a change of heart.

bbe@Luke:15:8 @Or what woman, having ten bits of silver, if one bit has gone from her hands, will not get a light, and go through her house, searching with care till she sees it?

bbe@Luke:15:9 @And when she has it again, she gets her friends and neighbours together, saying, Be glad with me, for I have got back the bit of silver which had gone from me.

bbe@Luke:15:10 @Even so, I say to you, There is joy among the angels of God, when one sinner is turned away from his wrongdoing.

bbe@Luke:15:12 @And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me that part of your property which will be mine. And he made division of his goods between them.

bbe@Luke:15:13 @And not long after, the younger son got together everything which was his and took a journey into a far-away country, and there all his money went in foolish living.

bbe@Luke:15:14 @And when everything was gone, there was no food to be had in that country, and he was in need.

bbe@Luke:15:17 @But when he came to his senses, he said, What numbers of my father's servants have bread enough, and more, while I am near to death here through need of food!

bbe@Luke:15:18 @I will get up and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have done wrong, against heaven and in your eyes:

bbe@Luke:15:20 @And he got up and went to his father. But while he was still far away, his father saw him and was moved with pity for him and went quickly and took him in his arms and gave him a kiss.

bbe@Luke:15:21 @And his son said to him, Father, I have done wrong, against heaven and in your eyes: I am no longer good enough to be named your son.

bbe@Luke:15:22 @But the father said to his servants, Get out the first robe quickly, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet:

bbe@Luke:15:27 @And he said to him, Your brother has come; and your father has had the young ox put to death because he has come back safely.

bbe@Luke:15:28 @But he was angry and would not go in; and his father came out and made a request to him to come in.

bbe@Luke:15:29 @But he made answer and said to his father, See, all these years I have been your servant, doing your orders in everything: and you never gave me even a young goat so that I might have a feast with my friends:

bbe@Luke:15:32 @But it was right to be glad and to have a feast; for this your brother, who was dead, is living again; he had gone away and has come back.

bbe@Luke:16:1 @And another time he said to the disciples, There was a certain man of great wealth who had a servant; and it was said to him that this servant was wasting his goods.

bbe@Luke:16:7 @Then he said to another, What is the amount of your debt? And he said, A hundred measures of grain. And he said to him, Take your account and put down eighty.

bbe@Luke:16:12 @And if you have not been true in your care of the property of other people, who will give you that which is yours?

bbe@Luke:16:13 @No man may be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other; or he will keep to the one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.

bbe@Luke:16:18 @Everyone who puts away his wife and takes another, is a false husband: and he who is married to a woman whose husband has put her away, is no true husband to her.

bbe@Luke:16:19 @Now there was a certain man of great wealth, who was dressed in fair clothing of purple and delicate linen, and was shining and glad every day.

bbe@Luke:16:24 @And he gave a cry and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, so that he may put the end of his finger in water and put it on my tongue, for I am cruelly burning in this flame.

bbe@Luke:16:26 @And in addition, there is a deep division fixed between us and you, so that those who might go from here to you are not able to do so, and no one may come from you to us.

bbe@Luke:16:27 @And he said, Father, it is my request that you will send him to my father's house;

bbe@Luke:16:28 @For I have five brothers; and let him give them an account of these things, so that they may not come to this place of pain.

bbe@Luke:16:30 @And he said, No, father Abraham, but if someone went to them from the dead, their hearts would be changed.

bbe@Luke:17:3 @Give attention to yourselves: if your brother does wrong, say a sharp word to him; and if he has sorrow for his sin, let him have forgiveness.

bbe@Luke:17:10 @In the same way, when you have done all the things which are given you to do, say, There is no profit in us, for we have only done what we were ordered to do.

bbe@Luke:17:17 @And Jesus said, Were there not ten men who were made clean? where are the nine?

bbe@Luke:17:21 @And men will not say, See, it is here! or, There! for the kingdom of God is among you.

bbe@Luke:17:23 @And if they say to you, See, it is there! or, It is here! do not go away, or go after them

bbe@Luke:17:24 @For as in a thunderstorm the bright light is seen from one end of the sky to the other, so will the Son of man be when his time comes.

bbe@Luke:17:34 @I say to you, In that night there will be two men sleeping in one bed, and one will be taken away and the other let go.

bbe@Luke:17:35 @Two women will be crushing grain together; one will be taken away and the other let go.

bbe@Luke:17:37 @And they, answering him, said, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body is, there will the eagles come together.

bbe@Luke:18:2 @Saying, There was a judge in a certain town, who had no fear of God or respect for man:

bbe@Luke:18:3 @And there was a widow in that town, and she kept on coming to him and saying, Give me my right against the man who has done me wrong.

bbe@Luke:18:5 @Because this widow is a trouble to me, I will give her her right; for if not, I will be completely tired out by her frequent coming.

bbe@Luke:18:8 @I say to you that he will quickly do right in their cause. But when the Son of man comes, will there be any faith on earth?

bbe@Luke:18:9 @And he made this story for some people who were certain that they were good, and had a low opinion of others:

bbe@Luke:18:10 @Two men went up to the Temple for prayer; one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-farmer

bbe@Luke:18:11 @The Pharisee, taking up his position, said to himself these words: God, I give you praise because I am not like other men, who take more than their right, who are evil-doers, who are untrue to their wives, or even like this tax-farmer.

bbe@Luke:18:13 @The tax-farmer, on the other hand, keeping far away, and not lifting up even his eyes to heaven, made signs of grief and said, God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

bbe@Luke:18:14 @I say to you, This man went back to his house with God's approval, and not the other: for everyone who makes himself high will be made low and whoever makes himself low will be made high.

bbe@Luke:18:20 @You have knowledge of what the law says: Do not be untrue to your wife, Do not put anyone to death, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Give honour to your father and mother.

bbe@Luke:18:29 @And he said to them, Truly I say to you, There is no man who has given up house or wife or brothers or father or mother or children, because of the kingdom of God,

bbe@Luke:19:11 @And while they were giving ear to these words, he made another story for them, because he was near Jerusalem, and because they were of the opinion that the kingdom of God was coming straight away.

bbe@Luke:19:18 @And another came, saying, Your pound has made five pounds.

bbe@Luke:19:20 @And another came, saying, Lord, here is your pound, which I put away in a cloth;

bbe@Luke:19:21 @Because I was in fear of you, for you are a hard man: you take up what you have not put down, and get in grain where you have not put seed.

bbe@Luke:19:22 @He said to him, By the words of your mouth you will be judged, you bad servant. You had knowledge that I am a hard man, taking up what I have not put down and getting in grain where I have not put seed;

bbe@Luke:19:24 @And he said to the others who were near, Take the pound away from him, and give it to the man who has ten.

bbe@Luke:19:27 @And as for those who were against me, who would not have me for their ruler, let them come here, and be put to death before me.

bbe@Luke:19:44 @And will make you level with the earth, and your children with you; and there will not be one stone resting on another in you, because you did not see that it was your day of mercy.

bbe@Luke:19:45 @And he went into the Temple and put out those who were trading there,

bbe@Luke:20:7 @And they made answer that they had no idea where it came from.

bbe@Luke:20:9 @And he gave the people this story: A man made a vine-garden and gave the use of it to some field-workers and went into another country for a long time.

bbe@Luke:20:11 @And he sent another servant, and they gave blows to him in the same way, and put shame on him, and sent him away with nothing.

bbe@Luke:20:14 @But when the workmen saw him, they said to one another, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property: let us put him to death and the heritage will be ours.

bbe@Luke:20:16 @He will come and put them to destruction and give the garden to others. And when he said this, they said, May it not be so.

bbe@Luke:20:27 @And some of the Sadducees came to him, who say that there is no coming back from the dead; and they said to him,

bbe@Luke:20:28 @Master, Moses said that if a man's brother comes to his end, having a wife, but no children, his brother is to take the wife, and get a family for his brother.

bbe@Luke:20:29 @Now there were seven brothers, and the first had a wife and came to his end, having no children;

bbe@Luke:20:31 @And the third took her; and in the same way, all the seven, without having any children, came to their end.

bbe@Luke:20:32 @And last of all, the woman came to her end.

bbe@Luke:20:33 @When they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for all the seven had her.

bbe@Luke:21:4 @For they gave out of their wealth, having more than enough for themselves: but she, even out of her need, has put in all her living.

bbe@Luke:21:6 @As for these things which you see, the days will come when not one stone will be resting on another, but all will be broken down.

bbe@Luke:21:7 @And they said to him, Master, when will these things be? and what sign will there be when these events are to take place?

bbe@Luke:21:11 @There will be great earth-shocks and outbursts of disease in a number of places, and men will be without food; and there will be wonders and great signs from heaven.

bbe@Luke:21:16 @But you will be given up even by your fathers and mothers, your brothers and relations and friends; and some of you will be put to death.

bbe@Luke:21:20 @But when you see armies all round about Jerusalem, then be certain that her destruction is near.

bbe@Luke:21:23 @It will be hard for women who are with child, and for her with a baby at the breast, in those days. For great trouble will come on the land, and wrath on this people.

bbe@Luke:21:25 @And there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars; and on the earth, fear among the nations and doubt because of the loud noise of the sea and the waves;

bbe@Luke:22:9 @And they said to him, Where are we to get it ready?

bbe@Luke:22:11 @And say to the master of the house, The Master says, Where is the guest-room, where I may take the Passover with my disciples?

bbe@Luke:22:12 @And he will take you up to a great room with a table and seats: there make ready.

bbe@Luke:22:24 @And there was an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.

bbe@Luke:22:29 @And I will give you a kingdom as my Father has given one to me,

bbe@Luke:22:32 @But I have made prayer for you, that your faith may not go from you: and when you are turned again, make your brothers strong.

bbe@Luke:22:38 @And they said, Lord, here are two swords. And he said, It is enough.

bbe@Luke:22:42 @Father, if it is your pleasure, take this cup from me: but still, let your pleasure, not mine, be done.

bbe@Luke:22:47 @And while he was saying these words, there came a band of people, and Judas, one of the twelve, was in front of them, and he came near to Jesus to give him a kiss.

bbe@Luke:22:55 @And a fire was lighted in the middle of the open square, and they were seated together, and Peter was among them.

bbe@Luke:22:58 @And after a little time, another saw him and said, You are one of them; and he said, Man, I am not.

bbe@Luke:22:59 @And after about an hour, another man said, with decision, Certainly this man was with him, for he is a Galilaean.

bbe@Luke:22:60 @And Peter said, Man, I have no knowledge of these things of which you are talking. And straight away, while he was saying these words, there came the cry of a cock.

bbe@Luke:22:65 @And they said a number of other evil things against him.

bbe@Luke:22:66 @And when it was day, the rulers of the people came together, with the chief priests and the scribes, and they took him before their Sanhedrin, saying,

bbe@Luke:23:7 @And when he saw that he was under the authority of Herod, he sent him to Herod, who was in Jerusalem himself at that time.

bbe@Luke:23:8 @Now when Herod saw Jesus he was very glad, having for a long time had a desire to see him, for he had had accounts of him, and was hoping to see some wonders done by him.

bbe@Luke:23:10 @And the chief priests and the scribes were there, making statements against him violently.

bbe@Luke:23:11 @And Herod, with the men of his army, put shame on him and made sport of him, and dressing him in shining robes, he sent him back to Pilate.

bbe@Luke:23:12 @And that day Herod and Pilate became friends with one another, for before they had been against one another.

bbe@Luke:23:15 @And Herod is of the same opinion, for he has sent him back to us; for, you see, he has done nothing for which I might put him to death.

bbe@Luke:23:18 @But with loud voices they said all together, Put this man to death, and make Barabbas free

bbe@Luke:23:19 @Now this man was in prison because of an attack against the government in the town, in which there had been loss of life.

bbe@Luke:23:32 @And two others, evil-doers, were taken with him to be put to death.

bbe@Luke:23:33 @And when they came to the place which is named Golgotha, they put him on the cross, and the evil-doers, one on the right side, and the other on the left.

bbe@Luke:23:34 @And Jesus said, Father, let them have forgiveness, for they have no knowledge of what they are doing. And they made division of his clothing among them by the decision of chance.

bbe@Luke:23:35 @And the people were looking on. And the rulers made sport of him, saying, He was a saviour of others; let him do something for himself, if he is the Christ, the man of God's selection.

bbe@Luke:23:40 @But the other, protesting, said, Have you no fear of God? for you have a part in the same punishment,

bbe@Luke:23:46 @And Jesus gave a loud cry and said, Father, into your hands I give my spirit: and when he had said this, he gave up his spirit.

bbe@Luke:23:48 @And all the people who had come together to see it, when they saw the things which were done, went back again making signs of grief.

bbe@Luke:23:50 @Now there was a man named Joseph, a man of authority and a good and upright man

bbe@Luke:24:1 @But on the first day of the week, at dawn, they came to the place where his body had been put, taking the spices which they had got ready.

bbe@Luke:24:3 @And they went in, but the body of the Lord Jesus was not there.

bbe@Luke:24:6 @He is not here, he has come back to life: have in mind what he said to you when he was still in Galilee, saying,

bbe@Luke:24:9 @And they went away from that place and gave an account of all these things to the eleven disciples and all the others.

bbe@Luke:24:10 @Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James: and the other women with them said these things to the Apostles.

bbe@Luke:24:12 @But Peter got up and went to the place where the body had been put, and looking in he saw nothing but the linen cloths, and he went to his house full of wonder at what had taken place.

bbe@Luke:24:14 @And they were talking together about all those things which had taken place.

bbe@Luke:24:15 @And while they were talking and questioning together, Jesus himself came near and went with them.

bbe@Luke:24:17 @And he said to them, What are you talking about together while you go?

bbe@Luke:24:18 @Then stopping, and looking sadly at him, one of them, named Cleopas, said to him, Are you the only man living in Jerusalem who has not had news of the things which have taken place there at this time?

bbe@Luke:24:22 @And certain women among us gave us cause for wonder, for they went early to the place where his body had been put,

bbe@Luke:24:23 @And it was not there; then they came saying that they had seen a vision of angels who said that he was living.

bbe@Luke:24:32 @And they said to one another, Were not our hearts burning in us while he was talking to us on the way, making clear to us the holy Writings?

bbe@Luke:24:33 @And that very hour they got up and went back to Jerusalem, where the eleven and the others had come together.

bbe@Luke:24:41 @And because, for joy and wonder, they were still in doubt, he said to them, Have you any food here?

bbe@Luke:24:49 @And now I will send to you what my father has undertaken to give you, but do not go from the town, till the power from heaven comes to you.

bbe@John:1:6 @There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

bbe@John:1:14 @And so the Word became flesh and took a place among us for a time; and we saw his glory--such glory as is given to an only son by his father--saw it to be true and full of grace.

bbe@John:1:18 @No man has seen God at any time; the only Son, who is on the breast of the Father, he has made clear what God is.

bbe@John:1:26 @John's answer was: I give baptism with water; but there is one among you of whom you have no knowledge;

bbe@John:1:28 @These things took place at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan, where John was giving baptism.

bbe@John:1:29 @The day after, John sees Jesus coming to him and says, See, here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

bbe@John:1:35 @The day after, John was there again with two of his disciples;

bbe@John:1:36 @And looking at Jesus while he was walking he said, See, there is the Lamb of God!

bbe@John:1:38 @And Jesus, turning round, saw them coming after him and said to them, What are you looking for? They said to him, Rabbi (which is to say, Master), where are you living?

bbe@John:1:40 @He said to them, Come and see. They went with him then and saw where he was living; and they were with him all that day: it was then about the tenth hour of the day.

bbe@John:1:41 @Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two men who, hearing what John said, went after Jesus.

bbe@John:1:42 @Early in the morning he came across his brother and said to him, We have made discovery! It is the Messiah! (which is to say, the Christ).

bbe@John:1:45 @Now Philip's town was Beth-saida, where Andrew and Peter came from.

bbe@John:1:48 @Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him and said of him, See, here is a true son of Israel in whom there is nothing false.

bbe@John:1:49 @Nathanael said to him, Where did you get knowledge of me? In answer Jesus said, Before Philip was talking with you, while you were still under the fig-tree, I saw you.

bbe@John:2:1 @On the third day two people were going to be married at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there:

bbe@John:2:3 @When they had not enough wine, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine.

bbe@John:2:4 @Jesus said to her, Woman, this is not your business; my time is still to come.

bbe@John:2:5 @His mother said to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do it.

bbe@John:2:6 @Now six pots of stone, every one taking two or three firkins of water, were placed there for the purpose of washing, as is the way of the Jews.

bbe@John:2:9 @After tasting the water which had now become wine, the master of the feast (having no idea where it came from, though it was clear to the servants who took the water out) sent for the newly-married man,

bbe@John:2:12 @After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother, his brothers, and his disciples, and they were there not more than two or three days.

bbe@John:2:14 @And there in the Temple he saw men trading in oxen and sheep and doves, and he saw the changers of money in their seats:

bbe@John:2:16 @And to those who were trading in doves he said, Take these things away; do not make my Father's house a market.

bbe@John:3:1 @Now there was among the Pharisees a man named Nicodemus, who was one of the rulers of the Jews.

bbe@John:3:2 @He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we are certain that you have come from God as a teacher, because no man would be able to do these signs which you do if God was not with him.

bbe@John:3:4 @Nicodemus said to him, How is it possible for a man to be given birth when he is old? Is he able to go into his mother's body a second time and come to birth again?

bbe@John:3:8 @The wind goes where its pleasure takes it, and the sound of it comes to your ears, but you are unable to say where it comes from and where it goes: so it is with everyone whose birth is from the Spirit.

bbe@John:3:10 @And Jesus, answering, said, Are you the teacher of Israel and have no knowledge of these things?

bbe@John:3:22 @After these things Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judaea, and there he was with them for some time, giving baptism.

bbe@John:3:23 @Now John was then giving baptism at Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there; and people came and were given baptism.

bbe@John:3:26 @And they went to John and said to him, Rabbi, the man who was with you on the other side of the Jordan, the man to whom you gave witness, is now giving baptism, and everyone is going to him.

bbe@John:3:31 @He who comes from heaven is greater than all others: he who comes from earth is of the earth, and of the earth are his words: he who comes from heaven is over all.

bbe@John:3:35 @The Father has love for the Son and has put all things into his hands.

bbe@John:4:6 @Now Jacob's fountain was there. Jesus, being tired after his journey, was resting by the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.

bbe@John:4:7 @A woman of Samaria came to get water, and Jesus said to her, Give me some water.

bbe@John:4:11 @The woman said to him, Sir, you have no vessel and the fountain is deep; from where will you get the living water?

bbe@John:4:12 @Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us the fountain and took the water of it himself, with his children and his cattle?

bbe@John:4:13 @Jesus said to her, Everyone who takes this water will be in need of it again:

bbe@John:4:16 @Jesus said to her, Go, get your husband and come back here with him.

bbe@John:4:17 @In answer, the woman said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have said rightly, I have no husband:

bbe@John:4:20 @Our fathers gave worship on this mountain, but you Jews say that the right place for worship is in Jerusalem.

bbe@John:4:21 @Jesus said to her, Woman, take my word for this; the time is coming when you will not give worship to the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem.

bbe@John:4:23 @But the time is coming, and is even now here, when the true worshippers will give worship to the Father in the true way of the spirit, for these are the worshippers desired by the Father.

bbe@John:4:26 @Jesus said to her, I, who am talking to you, am he.

bbe@John:4:27 @At that point the disciples came back, and they were surprised to see him talking to a woman; but not one of them said to him, What is your purpose? or, Why are you talking to her?

bbe@John:4:28 @Then the woman put down her water-pot and went into the town, and said to the people,

bbe@John:4:33 @So the disciples said one to another, Did anyone give him food?

bbe@John:4:36 @He who does the cutting now has his reward; he is getting together fruit for eternal life, so that he who did the planting and he who gets in the grain may have joy together.

bbe@John:4:37 @In this the saying is a true one, One does the planting, and another gets in the grain.

bbe@John:4:38 @I sent you to get in grain which you had no hand in planting: other men did that work, and you take the reward.

bbe@John:4:40 @So when the people came to him they made request to him to be among them for a time, and he was there two days.

bbe@John:4:43 @And after the two days he went on from there into Galilee.

bbe@John:4:45 @So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans took him to their hearts because of the things which they had seen him do in Jerusalem at the feast--they themselves having been there at the feast.

bbe@John:4:46 @So he came to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And there was a certain man of high position whose son was ill at Capernaum.

bbe@John:4:53 @It was clear then to the father that this was the very time at which Jesus said to him, Your son is living. And he had faith in Jesus, he and all his family.

bbe@John:5:1 @After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

bbe@John:5:2 @Now in Jerusalem near the sheep-market there is a public bath which in Hebrew is named Beth-zatha. It has five doorways.

bbe@John:5:3 @In these doorways there were a great number of people with different diseases: some unable to see, some without the power of walking, some with wasted bodies.

bbe@John:5:5 @One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.

bbe@John:5:6 @When Jesus saw him there on the floor it was clear to him that he had been now a long time in that condition, and so he said to the man, Is it your desire to get well?

bbe@John:5:7 @The ill man said in answer, Sir, I have nobody to put me into the bath when the water is moving; and while I am on the way down some other person gets in before me.

bbe@John:5:17 @But his answer was: My Father is still working even now, and so I am working.

bbe@John:5:18 @For this cause the Jews had an even greater desire to put Jesus to death, because not only did he not keep the Sabbath but he said God was his Father, so making himself equal with God.

bbe@John:5:19 @So Jesus made answer and said, Truly I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything himself; he is able to do only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does the Son does it in the same way.

bbe@John:5:20 @For the Father has love for the Son and lets him see everything which he does: and he will let him see greater works than these so that you may be full of wonder.

bbe@John:5:21 @In the same way, as the Father gives life to the dead, even so the Son gives life to those to whom he is pleased to give it.

bbe@John:5:22 @The Father is not the judge of men, but he has given all decisions into the hands of the Son;

bbe@John:5:23 @So that all men may give honour to the Son even as they give honour to the Father. He who gives no honour to the Son gives no honour to the Father who sent him.

bbe@John:5:26 @For even as the Father has life in himself, so he has given to the Son to have life in himself.

bbe@John:5:32 @There is another who gives witness about me and I am certain that the witness he gives about me is true.

bbe@John:5:36 @But the witness which I have is greater than that of John: the work which the Father has given me to do, the very work which I am now doing, is a witness that the Father has sent me.

bbe@John:5:37 @And the Father himself who sent me has given witness about me. Not one of you has ever given ear to his voice; his form you have not seen.

bbe@John:5:43 @I have come in my Father's name, and your hearts are not open to me. If another comes with no other authority but himself, you will give him your approval.

bbe@John:5:44 @How is it possible for you to have faith while you take honour one from another and have no desire for the honour which comes from the only God?

bbe@John:5:45 @Put out of your minds the thought that I will say things against you to the Father: the one who says things against you is Moses, on whom you put your hopes.

bbe@John:6:1 @After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee--that is, the sea of Tiberias.

bbe@John:6:3 @Then Jesus went up the mountain and was seated there with his disciples.

bbe@John:6:5 @Lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw a great number of people coming to where he was, and he said to Philip, Where may we get bread for all these people?

bbe@John:6:8 @One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to Jesus,

bbe@John:6:9 @There is a boy here with five barley cakes and two fishes: but what is that among such a number?

bbe@John:6:10 @Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.

bbe@John:6:22 @The day after, the people who were on the other side of the sea saw that only one small boat had been there, that Jesus had not gone in that boat with the disciples, but that the disciples had gone away by themselves.

bbe@John:6:23 @Some other boats, however, came from Tiberias near to the place where they had taken the bread after the Lord had given praise.

bbe@John:6:24 @So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, or his disciples, they got into those boats and went over to Capernaum looking for Jesus.

bbe@John:6:25 @And when they came across him on the other side of the sea they said, Rabbi, when did you come here?

bbe@John:6:27 @Let your work not be for the food which comes to an end, but for the food which goes on for eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you, for on him has God the Father put his mark.

bbe@John:6:31 @Our fathers had the manna in the waste land, as the Writings say, He gave them bread from heaven.

bbe@John:6:32 @Jesus then said to them, Truly I say to you, What Moses gave you was not the bread from heaven; it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

bbe@John:6:37 @Whatever the Father gives to me will come to me; and I will not send away anyone who comes to me.

bbe@John:6:40 @This, I say, is my Father's pleasure, that everyone who sees the Son and has faith in him may have eternal life: and I will take him up on the last day.

bbe@John:6:42 @And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have seen? How is it then that he now says, I have come down from heaven?

bbe@John:6:43 @Jesus made answer and said, Do not say things against me, one to another.

bbe@John:6:44 @No man is able to come to me if the Father who sent me does not give him the desire to come: and I will take him up from the dead on the last day.

bbe@John:6:45 @The writings of the prophets say, And they will all have teaching from God. Everyone whose ears have been open to the teaching of the Father comes to me.

bbe@John:6:46 @Not that anyone has ever seen the Father; only he who is from God, he has seen the Father.

bbe@John:6:49 @Your fathers took the manna in the waste land--and they are dead.

bbe@John:6:57 @As the living Father has sent me, and I have life because of the Father, even so he who takes me for his food will have life because of me.

bbe@John:6:58 @This is the bread which has come down from heaven. It is not like the food which your fathers had: they took of the manna, and are dead; but he who takes this bread for food will have life for ever.

bbe@John:6:62 @What then will you say if you see the Son of man going up to where he was before?

bbe@John:6:65 @And he said, This is why I said to you, No man is able to come to me if he is not given the power to do so by the Father.

bbe@John:7:3 @So his brothers said to him, Go away from here into Judaea so that your disciples may see the works which you do.

bbe@John:7:5 @For even his brothers had no belief in him.

bbe@John:7:10 @But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he went up, not publicly, but in secret.

bbe@John:7:11 @At the feast the Jews were looking for him and saying, Where is he?

bbe@John:7:12 @And there was much discussion about him among the mass of the people. Some said, He is a good man; but others said, No, he is giving people false ideas.

bbe@John:7:17 @If any man is ready to do God's pleasure he will have knowledge of the teaching and of where it comes from--from God or from myself.

bbe@John:7:18 @The man whose words come from himself is looking for glory for himself, but he who is looking for the glory of him who sent him--that man is true and there is no evil in him.

bbe@John:7:22 @Moses gave you circumcision--not that it comes from Moses, but from the fathers--and even on the Sabbath you give a child circumcision.

bbe@John:7:26 @And here he is talking openly and they say nothing to him! Is it possible that the rulers have knowledge that this is truly the Christ?

bbe@John:7:27 @However, it is clear to us where this man comes from: but when the Christ comes no one will have knowledge where he comes from.

bbe@John:7:28 @Then, when he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus said with a loud voice, You have knowledge of me and you have knowledge of where I come from; and I have not come of myself; but there is One who has sent me; he is true, but you have no knowledge of him.

bbe@John:7:34 @You will be looking for me, and you will not see me: and where I am you may not come.

bbe@John:7:35 @So the Jews said among themselves, To what place is he going where we will not see him? will he go to the Jews living among the Greeks and become the teacher of the Greeks?

bbe@John:7:36 @What is this saying of his, You will be looking for me and will not see me, and where I am you may not come?

bbe@John:7:41 @Others said, This is the Christ. But others said, Not so; will the Christ come from Galilee?

bbe@John:7:42 @Do not the Writings say that the Christ comes of the seed of David and from Beth-lehem, the little town where David was?

bbe@John:7:43 @So there was a division among the people because of him.

bbe@John:7:47 @Then the Pharisees said to them, Have you, like the others, been given false ideas?

bbe@John:8:4 @And putting her forward, they said to him, Master, this woman has been taken in the very act of sinning against the married relation.

bbe@John:8:7 @But when they went on with their questions, he got up and said to them, Let him among you who is without sin be the first to send a stone at her.

bbe@John:8:9 @And when his words came to their ears, they went out one by one, starting with the oldest even to the last, because they were conscious of what was in their hearts: and Jesus was there by himself with the woman before him.

bbe@John:8:10 @Then Jesus got up, and seeing nobody but the woman, he said to her, Where are the men who said things against you? did no one give a decision against you?

bbe@John:8:14 @Jesus said in answer, Even if I give witness about myself, my witness is true, because I have knowledge of where I came from and where I am going; but you have no knowledge of where I come from or of where I am going.

bbe@John:8:16 @Even if I am judging, my decision is right, because I am not by myself--with me is the Father who sent me.

bbe@John:8:18 @I give witness about myself and the Father who sent me gives witness about me

bbe@John:8:19 @Then they said to him, Where is your Father? Jesus said in answer, You have no knowledge of me or of my Father: if you had knowledge of me you would have knowledge of my Father.

bbe@John:8:20 @Jesus said these words in the place where the offerings were stored, while he was teaching in the Temple: but no man took him because his time was still to come.

bbe@John:8:21 @Then he said to them again, I am going away and you will be looking for me, but death will overtake you in your sins. It is not possible for you to come where I am going.

bbe@John:8:22 @So the Jews said, Will he take his life? Is that why he says, Where I go it is not possible for you to come?

bbe@John:8:27 @They did not see that his words were about the Father.

bbe@John:8:28 @So Jesus said, When the Son of man has been lifted up by you, then it will be clear to you who I am, and that I do nothing of myself, but say as the Father gave me teaching.

bbe@John:8:38 @I say the things which I have seen in my Father's house: and you do the things which come to you from your father's house.

bbe@John:8:39 @In answer they said to him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus said to them, If you were Abraham's children you would do what Abraham did.

bbe@John:8:41 @You are doing the works of your father. They said to him, We are true sons of Abraham; we have one Father, who is God.

bbe@John:8:42 @Jesus said to them, If God was your Father you would have love for me, because it was from God I came and am here. I did not come of myself, but he sent me.

bbe@John:8:44 @You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him. When he says what is false, it is natural to him, for he is false and the father of what is false.

bbe@John:8:49 @And this was the answer of Jesus: I have not an evil spirit; but I give honour to my Father and you do not give honour to me.

bbe@John:8:50 @I, however, am not in search of glory for myself: there is One who is searching for it and he is judge.

bbe@John:8:53 @Are you greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: who do you say that you are?

bbe@John:8:54 @Jesus said in answer, If I take glory for myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who gives me glory, of whom you say that he is your God.

bbe@John:8:56 @Your father Abraham was full of joy at the hope of seeing my day: he saw it and was glad.

bbe@John:9:2 @And his disciples put a question to him, saying, Master, was it because of this man's sin, or the sin of his father and mother, that he has been blind from birth?

bbe@John:9:3 @Jesus said in answer, It was not because of his sin, or because of his father's or mother's; it was so that the works of God might be seen openly in him.

bbe@John:9:8 @Then the neighbours and others who had seen him before in the street, with his hand out for money, said, Is not this the man who got money from people?

bbe@John:9:9 @Some said, It is he: others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am he.

bbe@John:9:12 @And they said to him, Where is he? His answer was: I have no knowledge.

bbe@John:9:16 @Then some of the Pharisees said, That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath. Others said, How is it possible for a sinner to do such signs? So there was a division among them.

bbe@John:9:18 @Now the Jews had no belief in the statement that he had been blind and was now able to see, till they sent for the father and mother of the man whose eyes had been made open,

bbe@John:9:20 @In answer his father and mother said, We are certain that this is our son and that he was blind at birth:

bbe@John:9:29 @We are certain that God gave his word to Moses: but as for this man, we have no knowledge where he comes from.

bbe@John:9:30 @The man said in answer, Why, here is a strange thing! You have no knowledge where he comes from though he gave me the use of my eyes.

bbe@John:9:34 @Their answer was: You came to birth through sin; do you make yourself our teacher? And they put him out of the Synagogue.

bbe@John:9:41 @Jesus said to them, If you were blind you would have no sin: but now that you say, We see; your sin is there still.

bbe@John:10:1 @Truly I say to you, He who does not go through the door into the place where the sheep are kept, but gets in by some other way, is a thief and an outlaw.

bbe@John:10:5 @They will not go after another who is not their keeper, but will go from him in flight, because his voice is strange to them.

bbe@John:10:15 @Even as the Father has knowledge of me and I of the Father; and I am giving my life for the sheep.

bbe@John:10:16 @And I have other sheep which are not of this field: I will be their guide in the same way, and they will give ear to my voice, so there will be one flock and one keeper.

bbe@John:10:17 @For this reason am I loved by the Father, because I give up my life so that I may take it again.

bbe@John:10:18 @No one takes it away from me; I give it up of myself. I have power to give it up, and I have power to take it again. These orders I have from my Father.

bbe@John:10:19 @There was a division again among the Jews because of these words.

bbe@John:10:21 @Others said, These are not the words of one who has an evil spirit. Is it possible for an evil spirit to make blind people see?

bbe@John:10:25 @Jesus said in answer, I have said it and you have no belief: the works which I do in my Father's name, these give witness about me.

bbe@John:10:29 @That which my Father has given to me has more value than all; and no one is able to take anything out of the Father's hand.

bbe@John:10:30 @I and my Father are one.

bbe@John:10:32 @Jesus said to them in answer, I have let you see a number of good works from the Father; for which of those works are you stoning me?

bbe@John:10:34 @In answer, Jesus said, Is there not a saying in your law, I said, You are gods?

bbe@John:10:36 @Do you say of him whom the Father made holy and sent into the world, Your words are evil; because I said, I am God's Son?

bbe@John:10:37 @If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not have belief in me;

bbe@John:10:38 @But if I am doing them, then have belief in the works even if you have no belief in me; so that you may see clearly and be certain that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.

bbe@John:10:40 @And he went again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John first gave baptism; and he was there for a time.

bbe@John:10:42 @And a number came to have faith in him there.

bbe@John:11:1 @Now a certain man named Lazarus was ill; he was of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

bbe@John:11:2 @(The Mary whose brother Lazarus was ill, was the Mary who put perfumed oil on the Lord and made his feet dry with her hair.)

bbe@John:11:5 @Now Jesus had love in his heart for Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

bbe@John:11:6 @So when the news came to him that Lazarus was ill, he did not go from the place where he was for two days.

bbe@John:11:8 @The disciples said to him, Master, the Jews were attempting only the other day to have you stoned, and are you going back there again?

bbe@John:11:9 @Then Jesus said in answer, Are there not twelve hours in the day? A man may go about in the day without falling, because he sees the light of this world.

bbe@John:11:15 @And because of you I am glad I was not there, so that you may have faith; but let us go to him.

bbe@John:11:16 @Then Thomas, who was named Didymus, said to the other disciples, Let us go so that we may be with him in death.

bbe@John:11:19 @And a number of Jews had come to Martha and Mary to give them comfort about their brother.

bbe@John:11:21 @Then Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if you had been here my brother would not be dead.

bbe@John:11:23 @Jesus said to her, Your brother will come to life again.

bbe@John:11:25 @Jesus said to her, I am myself that day and that life; he who has faith in me will have life even if he is dead;

bbe@John:11:28 @And having said this, she went away and said secretly to her sister Mary, The Master is here and has sent for you.

bbe@John:11:30 @Now Jesus had not at this time come into the town, but was still in the place where Martha had seen him.

bbe@John:11:31 @Then the Jews who were with her in the house, comforting her, when they saw Mary get up quickly and go out, went after her in the belief that she was going to the place of the dead and would be weeping there.

bbe@John:11:32 @When Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she went down at his feet, saying, Lord, if you had been here my brother would not be dead.

bbe@John:11:33 @And when Jesus saw her weeping, and saw the Jews weeping who came with her, his spirit was moved and he was troubled,

bbe@John:11:34 @And said, Where have you put him? They said, Come and see, Lord.

bbe@John:11:40 @Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God?

bbe@John:11:41 @So they took away the stone. And Jesus, looking up to heaven, said, Father, I give praise to you for hearing me.

bbe@John:11:42 @I was certain that your ears are at all times open to me, but I said it because of these who are here, so that they may see that you sent me.

bbe@John:11:53 @And from that day they took thought together how to put him to death.

bbe@John:11:54 @So Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near to the waste land, to a town named Ephraim, where he was for some time with the disciples.

bbe@John:11:56 @They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another while they were in the Temple, What is your opinion? Will he not come to the feast?

bbe@John:11:57 @Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone had knowledge where he was, he was to give them word, so that they might take him.

bbe@John:12:1 @Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had made to come back from the dead.

bbe@John:12:2 @So they made him a meal there, and he was waited on by Martha, and Lazarus was among those who were seated with him at table.

bbe@John:12:3 @Then Mary, taking a pound of perfumed oil of great value, put it on the feet of Jesus and made them dry with her hair: and the house became full of the smell of the perfume.

bbe@John:12:7 @Then Jesus said, Let her be. Let her keep what she has for the day of my death.

bbe@John:12:9 @Then a great number of the Jews had news that he was there: and they came, not only because of Jesus, but so that they might see Lazarus who had been dead and to whom he had given life.

bbe@John:12:10 @Now there was talk among the chief priests of putting Lazarus to death;

bbe@John:12:12 @The day after, a great number of people who were there for the feast, when they had the news that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

bbe@John:12:19 @Then the Pharisees said one to another, You see, you are unable to do anything: the world has gone after him.

bbe@John:12:20 @Now there were some Greeks among the people who had come up to give worship at the feast:

bbe@John:12:26 @If any man is my servant, let him come after me; and where I am, there will my servant be. If any man becomes my servant, my Father will give him honour.

bbe@John:12:27 @Now is my soul troubled; and what am I to say? Father, keep me from this hour. No: for this purpose have I come to this hour.

bbe@John:12:28 @Father, give glory to your name. Then there came a voice out of heaven, saying, I have given it glory, and I will give it glory again.

bbe@John:12:29 @Hearing the sound, a number of people who were there said that it was thunder: others said, An angel was talking to him.

bbe@John:12:35 @Jesus said to them, For a little time longer the light will be among you; while you have the light go on walking in it, so that the dark may not overtake you: one walking in the dark has no knowledge of where he is going.

bbe@John:12:49 @For I have not said it on my authority, but the Father who sent me gave me orders what to say and how to say it.

bbe@John:12:50 @And I have knowledge that his order is eternal life: so that the things which I say, I say them even as the Father says them to me.

bbe@John:13:1 @Now before the feast of the Passover, it was clear to Jesus that the time had come for him to go away from this world to the Father. Having once had love for those in the world who were his, his love for them went on to the end.

bbe@John:13:3 @Jesus, being conscious that the Father had put everything into his hands, and that he came from God and was going to God,

bbe@John:13:14 @If then I, the Lord and the Master, have made your feet clean, it is right for you to make one another's feet clean.

bbe@John:13:22 @Then the eyes of the disciples were turned on one another, in doubt as to whom he had in mind.

bbe@John:13:23 @There was at table one of his disciples, the one dear to Jesus, resting his head on Jesus' breast.

bbe@John:13:33 @My dear children, I am only to be with you a little longer. Then you will be looking for me: and as I said to the Jews, so now I say to you, Where I am going you may not come.

bbe@John:13:34 @I give you a new law: Have love one for another; even as I have had love for you, so are you to have love one for another.

bbe@John:13:35 @By this it will be clear to all men that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.

bbe@John:13:36 @Simon Peter said to him, Lord, where are you going? Jesus said in answer, Where I am going you may not come with me now, but you will come later.

bbe@John:14:2 @In my Father's house are rooms enough; if it was not so, would I have said that I am going to make ready a place for you?

bbe@John:14:3 @And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come back again and will take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am.

bbe@John:14:4 @And you all have knowledge of where I am going, and of the way to it.

bbe@John:14:5 @Thomas said, Lord, we have no knowledge of where you are going; how may we have knowledge of the way?

bbe@John:14:6 @Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.

bbe@John:14:7 @If you had knowledge of me, you would have knowledge of my Father: you have knowledge of him now and have seen him.

bbe@John:14:8 @Philip said to him, Lord, let us see the Father, and we have need of nothing more.

bbe@John:14:9 @Jesus said to him, Philip, have I been with you all this time, and still you have no knowledge of me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. Why do you say, Let us see the Father?

bbe@John:14:10 @Have you not faith that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words which I say to you, I say not from myself: but the Father who is in me all the time does his works.

bbe@John:14:11 @Have faith that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me: at least, have faith in me because of what I do.

bbe@John:14:12 @Truly I say to you, He who puts his faith in me will do the very works which I do, and he will do greater things than these, because I am going to my Father.

bbe@John:14:13 @And whatever request you make in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may have glory in the Son.

bbe@John:14:16 @And I will make prayer to the Father and he will give you another Helper to be with you for ever,

bbe@John:14:20 @At that time it will be clear to you that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I in you.

bbe@John:14:21 @He who has my laws and keeps them, he it is who has love for me: and he who has love for me will be loved by my Father, and I will have love for him and will let myself be seen clearly by him.

bbe@John:14:23 @Jesus said to him in answer, If anyone has love for me, he will keep my words: and he will be dear to my Father; and we will come to him and make our living-place with him.

bbe@John:14:24 @He who has no love for me does not keep my words; and the word which you are hearing is not my word but the Father's who sent me.

bbe@John:14:26 @But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will be your teacher in all things and will put you in mind of everything I have said to you.

bbe@John:14:28 @Keep in mind how I said to you, I go away and come to you again. If you had love for me you would be glad, because I am going to the Father: for the Father is greater than I.

bbe@John:14:31 @But he comes so that the world may see that I have love for the Father, and that I am doing as I am ordered by the Father. Get up, and let us go.

bbe@John:15:1 @I am the true vine and my Father is the gardener.

bbe@John:15:8 @Here is my Father's glory, in that you give much fruit and so are my true disciples.

bbe@John:15:9 @Even as the Father has given me his love, so I have given my love to you: be ever in my love.

bbe@John:15:10 @If you keep my laws, you will be ever in my love, even as I have kept my Father's laws, and am ever in his love.

bbe@John:15:12 @This is the law I give you: Have love one for another, even as I have love for you.

bbe@John:15:15 @No longer do I give you the name of servants; because a servant is without knowledge of what his master is doing: I give you the name of friends, because I have given you knowledge of all the things which my Father has said to me.

bbe@John:15:16 @You did not take me for yourselves, but I took you for myself; and I gave you the work of going about and producing fruit which will be for ever; so that whatever request you make to the Father in my name he may give it to you.

bbe@John:15:17 @So this is my law for you: Have love one for another.

bbe@John:15:22 @If I had not come and been their teacher they would have had no sin: but now they have no reason to give for their sin.

bbe@John:15:23 @He who has hate for me has hate for my Father.

bbe@John:15:24 @If I had not done among them the works which no other man ever did, they would have had no sin: but now they have seen, and they have had hate in their hearts for me and my Father.

bbe@John:15:26 @When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father even the Spirit of true knowledge who comes from the Father--he will give witness about me;

bbe@John:16:3 @They will do these things to you because they have not had knowledge of the Father or of me.

bbe@John:16:5 @But now I am going to him who sent me; and not one of you says to me, Where are you going?

bbe@John:16:10 @Of righteousness, because I go to the Father and you will see me no more;

bbe@John:16:15 @Everything which the Father has is mine: that is why I say, He will take of what is mine and will make it clear to you.

bbe@John:16:17 @So some of the disciples said one to another, What is this he is saying, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me? and, I am going to the Father?

bbe@John:16:19 @Jesus saw that they had a desire to put the question to him, so he said to them, Is this what you are questioning one with another, why I said, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me?

bbe@John:16:21 @When a woman is about to give birth she has sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she has given birth to the child, the pain is put out of her mind by the joy that a man has come into the world

bbe@John:16:23 @And on that day you will put no questions to me. Truly I say to you, Whatever request you make to the Father, he will give it to you in my name.

bbe@John:16:25 @All this I have said to you in veiled language: but the time is coming when I will no longer say things in veiled language but will give you knowledge of the Father clearly.

bbe@John:16:26 @In that day you will make requests in my name: and I do not say that I will make prayer to the Father for you,

bbe@John:16:27 @For the Father himself gives his love to you, because you have given your love to me and have had faith that I came from God.

bbe@John:16:28 @I came out from the Father and have come into the world: again, I go away from the world and go to the Father.

bbe@John:16:32 @See, a time is coming, yes, it is now here, when you will go away in all directions, every man to his house, and I will be by myself: but I am not by myself, because the Father is with me.

bbe@John:17:1 @Jesus said these things; then, lifting his eyes to heaven, he said, Father, the time has now come; give glory to your Son, so that the Son may give glory to you:

bbe@John:17:5 @And now, Father, let me have glory with you, even that glory which I had with you before the world was.

bbe@John:17:11 @And now I will be no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I come to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name which you have given to me, so that they may be one even as we are one.

bbe@John:17:21 @May they all be one! Even as you, Father, are in me and I am in you, so let them be in us, so that all men may come to have faith that you sent me.

bbe@John:17:24 @Father, it is my desire that these whom you have given to me may be by my side where I am, so that they may see my glory which you have given to me, because you had love for me before the world came into being.

bbe@John:17:25 @Father of righteousness, I have knowledge of you, though the world has not; and to these it is clear that you sent me;

bbe@John:18:2 @And Judas, who was false to him, had knowledge of the place because Jesus went there frequently with his disciples.

bbe@John:18:3 @So Judas, getting a band of armed men and police from the chief priests and Pharisees, went there with lights and with arms.

bbe@John:18:5 @Their answer was, Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus said, I am he. And Judas, who was false to him, was there at their side.

bbe@John:18:11 @Then Jesus said to Peter, Put back your sword: am I not to take the cup which my Father has given to me?

bbe@John:18:13 @They took him first to Annas, because Annas was the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was the high priest that year.

bbe@John:18:15 @And Simon Peter went after Jesus with another disciple. Now that disciple was a friend of the high priest and he went in with Jesus into the house of the high priest;

bbe@John:18:16 @But Peter was kept outside at the door. Then this other disciple, who was a friend of the high priest, came out and had a word with the girl who kept the door, and took Peter in.

bbe@John:18:18 @Now the servants and the police had made a fire of coals because it was cold; they were warming themselves in front of it and Peter was there with them, warming himself.

bbe@John:18:25 @But Simon Peter was still there warming himself by the fire. They said to him, Are you not one of his disciples? He said, No, I am not.

bbe@John:18:34 @Jesus made answer, Do you say this of yourself, or did others say it about me?

bbe@John:18:36 @Jesus said in answer, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom was of this world, my disciples would have made a good fight to keep me out of the hands of the Jews: but my kingdom is not here.

bbe@John:19:5 @Then Jesus came out with the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them, Here is the man!

bbe@John:19:9 @And he went again into the Praetorium and said to Jesus, Where do you come from? But Jesus gave him no answer.

bbe@John:19:14 @(It was the day when they made ready for the Passover; and it was about the sixth hour.) And he said to the Jews, There is your King!

bbe@John:19:18 @Where they put him on the cross with two others, one on this side and one on that, and Jesus in the middle.

bbe@John:19:20 @The writing was seen by a number of the Jews, for the place where Jesus was put to death on the cross was near the town; and the writing was in Hebrew and Latin and Greek.

bbe@John:19:25 @Now by the side of the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother's sister Mary, the wife of Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene.

bbe@John:19:26 @So when Jesus saw his mother and the disciple who was dear to him, he said to his mother, Mother, there is your son!

bbe@John:19:27 @Then he said to the disciple, There is your mother! And from that hour the disciple took her to his house.

bbe@John:19:29 @Now there was a vessel ready, full of bitter wine, and they put a sponge full of it on a stick and put it to his mouth.

bbe@John:19:32 @So the men of the army came, and the legs of the first were broken and then of the other who was put to death on the cross with Jesus:

bbe@John:19:34 @But one of the men made a wound in his side with a spear, and straight away there came out blood and water.

bbe@John:19:37 @And again another verse says, They will see him who was wounded by their spears.

bbe@John:19:41 @Now there was a garden near the cross, and in the garden a new place for the dead in which no man had ever been put.

bbe@John:19:42 @So they put Jesus there, because it was the Jews' day of getting ready for the Passover, and the place was near.

bbe@John:20:2 @Then she went running to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple who was loved by Jesus, and said to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the place of the dead and we have no knowledge where they have put him.

bbe@John:20:3 @So Peter and the other disciple went out to the place of the dead.

bbe@John:20:4 @They went running together, and the other disciple got in front of Peter and came first to the hole in the rock;

bbe@John:20:8 @Then the other disciple who came there first went in; and he saw and belief came to him.

bbe@John:20:11 @But Mary was still there outside the hole in the rock, weeping; and while she was weeping and looking into the hole,

bbe@John:20:12 @She saw two angels in white seated where the body of Jesus had been, one at the head and the other at the feet

bbe@John:20:13 @They said to her, Woman, why are you weeping? She said to them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I have no knowledge where they have put him.

bbe@John:20:14 @And then looking round, she saw Jesus there, but had no idea that it was Jesus.

bbe@John:20:15 @Jesus said to her, Woman, why are you weeping? who are you looking for? She, taking him for the gardener, said to him, Sir, if you have taken him away from here, say where you have put him and I will take him away.

bbe@John:20:16 @Jesus said to her, Mary! Turning, she said to him in Hebrew, Rabboni! (which is to say, Master).

bbe@John:20:17 @Jesus said to her, Do not put your hand on me, for I have not gone up to the Father: but go to my brothers and say to them, I go up to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.

bbe@John:20:18 @Mary Magdalene went with the news to the disciples, and said she had seen the Lord and that he had said these things to her.

bbe@John:20:19 @At evening on that day, the first day of the week, when, for fear of the Jews, the doors were shut where the disciples were, Jesus came among them and said to them, May peace be with you!

bbe@John:20:21 @And Jesus said to them again, May peace be with you! As the Father sent me, even so I now send you.

bbe@John:20:25 @So the other disciples said to him, We have seen the Lord. But he said to them, If I do not see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the print of the nails, and if I do not put my hand into his side, I will never have belief.

bbe@John:20:27 @Then he said to Thomas, Put out your finger, and see my hands; and put your hand here into my side: and be no longer in doubt but have belief.

bbe@John:20:30 @A number of other signs Jesus did before his disciples which are not recorded in this book:

bbe@John:21:2 @Simon Peter, Thomas named Didymus, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were all together.

bbe@John:21:4 @Now very early in the morning Jesus was there by the edge of the sea (though the disciples were not conscious that it was Jesus).

bbe@John:21:8 @And the other disciples came in the little boat (they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits off) pulling the net full of fish.

bbe@John:21:9 @When they got to land, they saw a fire of coals there, with fish cooking on it, and bread.

bbe@John:21:11 @So Peter went to the boat and came back pulling the net to land, full of great fish, a hundred and fifty-three; and though there was such a number the net was not broken.

bbe@John:21:15 @Then when they had taken food, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, is your love for me greater than the love of these others? He said to him, Yes, Lord; you are certain of my love for you. He said to him, Then give my lambs food.

bbe@John:21:18 @Truly I say to you, When you were young, you made yourself ready and went wherever you had a desire to go: but when you are old, you will put out your hands and another will make you ready, and you will be taken where you have no desire to go.

bbe@John:21:22 @Jesus said to him, If it is my desire for him to be here till I come back, what is that to you? come yourself after me.

bbe@John:21:23 @So this saying went about among the brothers that this disciple would not undergo death: Jesus, however, did not say that he would not undergo death, but, If it is my desire for him to be here till I come back, what is that to you?

bbe@John:21:25 @And Jesus did such a number of other things that, if every one was recorded, it is my opinion that even the world itself is not great enough for the books there would be.

bbe@Acts:1:4 @And when they were all together, with him, he gave them orders not to go away from Jerusalem, but to keep there, waiting till the word of the Father was put into effect, of which, he said, I have given you knowledge:

bbe@Acts:1:6 @So, when they were together, they said to him, Lord, will you at this time give back the kingdom to Israel?

bbe@Acts:1:7 @And he said to them, It is not for you to have knowledge of the time and the order of events which the Father has kept in his control.

bbe@Acts:1:13 @And when they came in, they went up into the room where they were living; Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James, the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas, the son of James.

bbe@Acts:1:14 @And they all with one mind gave themselves up to prayer, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.

bbe@Acts:1:15 @And in those days Peter got up among the brothers (there were about one hundred and twenty of them), and said,

bbe@Acts:1:16 @My brothers, the word of God had to be put into effect, which the Holy Spirit had said before, by the mouth of David, about Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus,

bbe@Acts:1:18 @(Now this man, with the reward of his evil-doing, got for himself a field, and falling head first, came to a sudden and violent end there.

bbe@Acts:1:20 @For in the book of Psalms it says, Let his house be waste, and let no man be living in it: and, Let his position be taken by another.

bbe@Acts:1:23 @And they made selection of two, Joseph, named Barsabbas, whose other name was Justus, and Matthias.

bbe@Acts:2:1 @And when the day of Pentecost was come, they were all together in one place.

bbe@Acts:2:2 @And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like the rushing of a violent wind, and all the house where they were was full of it.

bbe@Acts:2:5 @Now there were living at Jerusalem, Jews, God-fearing men, from every nation under heaven.

bbe@Acts:2:6 @And when this sound came to their ears, they all came together, and were greatly surprised because every man was hearing the words of the disciples in his special language.

bbe@Acts:2:10 @In Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and those who have come from Rome, Jews by birth and others who have become Jews,

bbe@Acts:2:12 @And they were all surprised and in doubt saying to one another, What is the reason of this?

bbe@Acts:2:13 @But others, making sport of them, said, They are full of new wine.

bbe@Acts:2:29 @My brothers, I may say to you openly that David came to his death, and was put in the earth, and his resting-place is with us today.

bbe@Acts:2:33 @And so, being lifted up to the right hand of God, and having the Father's word that the Holy Spirit would come, he has sent this thing, which now you see and have knowledge of.

bbe@Acts:2:37 @Now when these words came to their ears their hearts were troubled, and they said to Peter and the other Apostles, Brothers, what are we to do?

bbe@Acts:2:42 @And they kept their attention fixed on the Apostles' teaching and were united together in the taking of broken bread and in prayer.

bbe@Acts:2:44 @And all those who were of the faith kept together, and had all things in common;

bbe@Acts:2:46 @And day by day, going in agreement together regularly to the Temple and, taking broken bread together in their houses, they took their food with joy and with true hearts,

bbe@Acts:3:2 @And a certain man who from birth had had no power in his legs, was taken there every day, and put down at the door of the Temple which is named Beautiful, requesting money from those who went into the Temple;

bbe@Acts:3:11 @And while he kept his hands on Peter and John, all the people came running together to the covered way which is named Solomon's, full of wonder.

bbe@Acts:3:13 @The God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has given glory to his servant Jesus; whom you gave up, turning your backs on him, when Pilate had made the decision to let him go free.

bbe@Acts:3:17 @And now, my brothers, I am conscious that you did this, as did your rulers, without knowledge.

bbe@Acts:3:25 @You are the sons of the prophets, and of the agreement which God made with your fathers, saying to Abraham, Through your seed a blessing will come on all the families of the earth.

bbe@Acts:4:5 @And on the day after, the rulers and those in authority and the scribes came together in Jerusalem;

bbe@Acts:4:6 @And Annas, the high priest, was there, and Caiaphas and John and Alexander, and all the relations of the high priest.

bbe@Acts:4:12 @And in no other is there salvation: for there is no other name under heaven, given among men, through which we may have salvation.

bbe@Acts:4:14 @And, seeing that the man who had been made well was there with them, they were not able to say anything against it.

bbe@Acts:4:17 @But so that it may not go farther among the people, let us put them in fear of punishment if they say anything in future in this name.

bbe@Acts:4:25 @Who has said, by the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David your servant, Why are the nations so violently moved, and why are the thoughts of the people so foolish?

bbe@Acts:4:26 @The kings of the earth were lifted up, the rulers came together, against the Lord, and against his Christ:

bbe@Acts:4:27 @For, truly, in this town, against your holy servant, Jesus, who was marked out by you as Christ, Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, came together,

bbe@Acts:4:29 @And now, Lord, take note of their cruel words, and give your servants power to be preachers of your word without fear,

bbe@Acts:4:31 @And when their prayer was ended, the place where they were was violently moved, and they all became full of the Holy Spirit, preaching the word of God without fear.

bbe@Acts:5:8 @And Peter said to her, Give me an answer: was this amount of money the price of the land? And she said, Yes, it was.

bbe@Acts:5:9 @But Peter said to her, Why have you made an agreement together to be false to the Spirit of the Lord? See, the feet of the young men who have put the body of your husband in the earth, are at the door, and they will take you out.

bbe@Acts:5:10 @And straight away she went down at his feet, and her life went from her: and the young men came in and saw her dead, and they took her out and put her in the earth with her husband.

bbe@Acts:5:12 @Now a number of signs and wonders were done among the people by the hands of the Apostles; and they were all together in Solomon's covered way

bbe@Acts:5:13 @The others, in fear, kept back from joining them: but the people made much of them;

bbe@Acts:5:16 @And numbers of people came together from the towns round about Jerusalem, with those who were ill and those who were troubled with unclean spirits: and they were all made well.

bbe@Acts:5:21 @And hearing this, they went into the Temple at dawn, and were teaching. But the high priest and those who were with him got together the Sanhedrin and the representatives of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to get them.

bbe@Acts:5:23 @Saying, The doors of the prison were safely shut, and the keepers were at the doors, but when they were open, there was nobody inside.

bbe@Acts:5:30 @The God of our fathers gave Jesus back to life, whom you had put to death, hanging him on a tree.

bbe@Acts:5:36 @For before this there was Theudas, who said he was someone important, to whom about four hundred men gave their support: he was put to death, and his band was broken up and came to nothing.

bbe@Acts:5:37 @After this man, there was Judas of Galilee, at the time of the numbering, and some of the people went after him: he was put to death, and all his supporters were put to flight.

bbe@Acts:7:2 @And he said, My brothers and fathers, give hearing. The God of glory came to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he was living in Haran,

bbe@Acts:7:4 @Then he came out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and went into Haran; and from there, when his father was dead, he was guided by God into this land, where you are living now:

bbe@Acts:7:5 @And God gave him no heritage in it, not even enough to put his foot on: but he gave him an undertaking that he would give it to him and to his children after him, though he had no child at that time.

bbe@Acts:7:8 @And he made with him the agreement of which circumcision was the sign. And so Abraham had a son, Isaac, and gave him circumcision on the eighth day; and Isaac had a son, Jacob, and Jacob was the father of the twelve heads of the families of Israel.

bbe@Acts:7:9 @And the brothers, moved with envy against Joseph, gave him to the Egyptians for money: but God was with him,

bbe@Acts:7:11 @Now there was no food to be had in all Egypt and Canaan, and there was great trouble: and our fathers were not able to get food.

bbe@Acts:7:12 @But Jacob, hearing that there was grain in Egypt, sent out our fathers the first time.

bbe@Acts:7:13 @And the second time his brothers had a meeting with Joseph, and Pharaoh had knowledge of Joseph's family.

bbe@Acts:7:14 @Then Joseph sent for Jacob his father and all his family, seventy-five persons.

bbe@Acts:7:15 @And Jacob went down to Egypt, and came to his end there, and so did our fathers;

bbe@Acts:7:18 @Till another king came to power, who had no knowledge of Joseph.

bbe@Acts:7:19 @He, having evil designs against our nation, was cruel to our fathers, and they were forced to put out their young children, so that they might not go on living.

bbe@Acts:7:20 @At which time Moses came to birth, and he was very beautiful; and he was kept for three months in his father's house:

bbe@Acts:7:21 @And when he was put out, Pharaoh's daughter took him and kept him as her son.

bbe@Acts:7:23 @But when he was almost forty years old, it came into his heart to go and see his brothers, the children of Israel.

bbe@Acts:7:25 @And he was hoping that his brothers would see that God had sent him to be their saviour; but they did not see.

bbe@Acts:7:26 @And the day after, he came to them, while they were having a fight, and would have made peace between them, saying, Sirs, you are brothers; why do you do wrong to one another?

bbe@Acts:7:29 @And at these words, Moses went in flight to the land of Midian, and was living there for a time, and had two sons.

bbe@Acts:7:32 @I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob. And Moses, shaking with fear, kept his eyes from looking at it.

bbe@Acts:7:33 @And the Lord said, Take off the shoes from your feet, for the place where you are is holy.

bbe@Acts:7:37 @This is the same Moses, who said to the children of Israel, God will give you a prophet from among your brothers, like me.

bbe@Acts:7:38 @This is the man who was in the church in the waste land with the angel who was talking to him in Sinai, and with our fathers; and to him were given the living words of God, so that he might give them to you.

bbe@Acts:7:39 @By whom our fathers would not be controlled; but they put him on one side, turning back in their hearts to Egypt,

bbe@Acts:7:43 @And you took up the tent of Moloch and the star of the god Rephan, images which you made to give worship to them: and I will take you away, farther than Babylon.

bbe@Acts:7:44 @Our fathers had the Tent of witness in the waste land, as God gave orders to Moses to make it after the design which he had seen.

bbe@Acts:7:45 @Which our fathers, in their turn, took with them when, with Joshua, they came into the heritage of the nations whom God was driving out before the face of our fathers, till the time of David,

bbe@Acts:7:51 @You whose hearts are hard and whose ears are shut to me; you are ever working against the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you.

bbe@Acts:7:52 @Which of the prophets was not cruelly attacked by your fathers? and they put to death those who gave them the news of the coming of the Upright One; whom you have now given up and put to death;

bbe@Acts:7:57 @But with loud cries, and stopping their ears, they made an attack on him all together,

bbe@Acts:8:4 @But those who had gone in flight went everywhere preaching the word.

bbe@Acts:8:8 @And there was much joy in that town.

bbe@Acts:8:9 @But there was a certain man named Simon, who in the past had been a wonder-worker and a cause of surprise to the people of Samaria, saying that he himself was a great man:

bbe@Acts:8:15 @Who, when they came there, made prayer for them, that the Holy Spirit might be given to them:

bbe@Acts:8:27 @And he went and there was a man of Ethiopia, a servant of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, and controller of all her property, who had come up to Jerusalem for worship;

bbe@Acts:8:32 @Now the place in the book where he was reading was this: He was taken, like a sheep, to be put to death; and as a lamb is quiet when its wool is being cut, so he made no sound:

bbe@Acts:8:34 @And the Ethiopian said to Philip, About whom are these words said by the prophet? about himself, or some other?

bbe@Acts:8:36 @And while they were going on their way, they came to some water, and the Ethiopian said, See, here is water; why may I not have baptism?

bbe@Acts:9:2 @And made a request for letters from him to the Synagogues of Damascus, so that if there were any of the Way there, men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem.

bbe@Acts:9:10 @Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and the Lord said to him in a vision, Ananias! and he said, Here I am, Lord.

bbe@Acts:9:14 @And here he has authority from the chief priests to make prisoners all who give worship to your name.

bbe@Acts:9:17 @And Ananias went out and came to the house, and putting his hands on him, said, Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, whom you saw when you were on your journey, has sent me, so that you may be able to see, and be full of the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Acts:9:21 @And all those hearing him were full of wonder and said, Is not this the man who in Jerusalem was attacking all the worshippers of this name? and he had come here so that he might take them as prisoners before the chief priests.

bbe@Acts:9:23 @Then, after some days, the Jews made an agreement together to put him to death:

bbe@Acts:9:30 @And when the brothers had knowledge of it, they took him to Caesarea and sent him to Tarsus.

bbe@Acts:9:33 @And there was a certain man there, named Aeneas, who for eight years had been in bed, without power of moving.

bbe@Acts:9:36 @Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, that is, Dorcas: this woman was given to good works and acts of mercy at all times.

bbe@Acts:9:37 @And it came about, in those days, that she got ill and came to her death: and when she had been washed, they put her in a room which was high up.

bbe@Acts:9:38 @And because Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having knowledge that Peter was there, sent two men to him, requesting him to come to them straight away.

bbe@Acts:9:39 @And Peter went with them. And when he had come, they took him into the room: and all the widows were there, weeping and putting before him the coats and clothing which Dorcas had made while she was with them.

bbe@Acts:9:40 @But Peter made them all go outside, and went down on his knees in prayer; and turning to the body, he said, Tabitha, get up. And, opening her eyes, she saw Peter and got up.

bbe@Acts:9:41 @And he took her hand, lifting her up; and, sending for the saints and widows, he gave her to them, living.

bbe@Acts:9:43 @And he was living in Joppa for some time with Simon, a leather-worker.

bbe@Acts:10:1 @Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, the captain of the Italian band of the army;

bbe@Acts:10:6 @Who is living with Simon, a leather-worker, whose house is by the sea.

bbe@Acts:10:18 @To see if Simon, named Peter, was living there.

bbe@Acts:10:23 @So he took them in for the night. And the day after, he went with them, taking some of the brothers from Joppa with him.

bbe@Acts:10:24 @And the day after that, they came to Caesarea. And Cornelius was waiting for them, having got together his relations and his near friends.

bbe@Acts:10:27 @And saying these words, he went in, and saw that a great number of people had come together;

bbe@Acts:10:28 @And he said to them, You yourselves have knowledge that it is against the law for a man who is a Jew to be in the company of one who is of another nation; but God has made it clear to me that no man may be named common or unclean:

bbe@Acts:10:32 @Send, then, to Joppa, and get Simon, named Peter, to come to you; he is living in the house of Simon, a leather-worker, by the sea.

bbe@Acts:10:37 @That word you yourselves have knowledge of, which was made public through all Judaea, starting from Galilee, after the baptism of which John was the preacher,

bbe@Acts:11:1 @Now the Apostles and the brothers who were in Judaea had news that the word of God had been given to the Gentiles.

bbe@Acts:11:11 @And at that minute, three men, sent from Caesarea, came to the house where we were

bbe@Acts:11:12 @And the Spirit gave me orders to go with them, doubting nothing. And these six brothers came with me; and we went into that man's house:

bbe@Acts:11:26 @And when he had come across him, he took him to Antioch. And they were with the church there for a year, teaching the people; and the disciples were first given the name of Christians in Antioch.

bbe@Acts:11:28 @And one of them, named Agabus, said publicly through the Spirit that there would be serious need of food all over the earth: which came about in the time of Claudius.

bbe@Acts:11:29 @And the disciples, everyone as he was able, made a decision to send help to the brothers living in Judaea:

bbe@Acts:12:1 @Now, about that time, Herod the king made cruel attacks on the Christians.

bbe@Acts:12:2 @And he put James, the brother of John, to death with the sword.

bbe@Acts:12:6 @And when Herod was about to take him out, the same night Peter was sleeping in chains between two armed men, and the watchmen were keeping watch before the door of the prison.

bbe@Acts:12:11 @And when Peter came to his senses he said, Now, truly, I am certain that the Lord has sent his angel and taken me out of the hands of Herod, against all the hopes of the Jews.

bbe@Acts:12:12 @And when he became clear about this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John named Mark, where a number of them had come together for prayer.

bbe@Acts:12:14 @And hearing the voice of Peter, in her joy she went running, without opening the door, to say that Peter was outside.

bbe@Acts:12:15 @And they said to her, You are off your head. But still she said, with decision, that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.

bbe@Acts:12:17 @But he made a sign to them with his hand to be quiet, and gave them an account of how the Lord had taken him out of prison. And he said, Give the news to James and the brothers. And then he went away.

bbe@Acts:12:19 @And Herod, when he sent for him, and he was not there, after questioning the watchmen, gave orders that they were to be put to death. Then he went down from Judaea to Caesarea for a time.

bbe@Acts:12:20 @Now he was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon: and they came to him, all together, and having made friends with Blastus, the controller of the king's house, they made a request for peace, because their country was dependent on the king's country for its food.

bbe@Acts:12:21 @And on the day which had been fixed, Herod, dressed in his robes and seated in his place, made a public statement to them.

bbe@Acts:13:1 @Now there were at Antioch, in the church there, prophets and teachers, Barnabas, and Symeon who was named Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, a relation of Herod the king, and Saul.

bbe@Acts:13:4 @So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia; and from there they went by ship to Cyprus.

bbe@Acts:13:9 @But Saul, whose other name is Paul, being full of the Holy Spirit, looking hard at him, said,

bbe@Acts:13:13 @Then Paul and those who were with him went by ship from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia: and there John went away from them and came back to Jerusalem.

bbe@Acts:13:15 @And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the Synagogue sent to them, saying, Brothers, if you have a word of comfort for the people, say on

bbe@Acts:13:17 @The God of this people Israel made selection of our fathers, lifting the people up from their low condition when they were living in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm took them out of it.

bbe@Acts:13:19 @And having put to destruction seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them the land for their heritage for about four hundred and fifty years.

bbe@Acts:13:26 @My brothers, children of the family of Abraham, and those among you who have the fear of God, to us the word of this salvation is sent.

bbe@Acts:13:32 @And we are giving you the good news of the undertaking made to the fathers,

bbe@Acts:13:35 @Because he says in another Psalm, You will not let your Holy One see destruction.

bbe@Acts:13:36 @Now David, having done God's work for his generation, went to sleep, and was put with his fathers, and his body came to destruction:

bbe@Acts:13:38 @And so, let it be clear to you, my brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is offered to you:

bbe@Acts:13:44 @And on the Sabbath after, almost all the town came together to give hearing to the word of God.

bbe@Acts:14:1 @Now in Iconium they went together to the Synagogue of the Jews and gave such teaching that a great number of Jews and Greeks had faith.

bbe@Acts:14:2 @But those Jews who had not the faith, made the minds of the Gentiles bitter against the brothers.

bbe@Acts:14:3 @So they kept there for a long time, taking heart in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace by causing signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

bbe@Acts:14:4 @But there was a division among the people of the town; some were on the side of the Jews and some on the side of the Apostles.

bbe@Acts:14:7 @And went on preaching the good news there.

bbe@Acts:14:8 @And at Lystra there was a certain man, who from birth had been without the use of his feet, never having had the power of walking.

bbe@Acts:14:26 @And from there they went by ship to Antioch, where they had been handed over to the grace of God for the work which they had not done.

bbe@Acts:14:27 @And when they came there, and had got the church together, they gave them an account of all the things which God had done through them, and how he had made open a door of faith to the Gentiles.

bbe@Acts:14:28 @And they were with the disciples there for a long time.

bbe@Acts:15:1 @Now certain men came down from Judaea, teaching the brothers and saying that without circumcision, after the rule of Moses, there is no salvation.

bbe@Acts:15:2 @And after Paul and Barnabas had had no little argument and discussion with them, the brothers made a decision to send Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them to the Apostles and the rulers of the church at Jerusalem about this question.

bbe@Acts:15:3 @So they, being sent on their way by the church, went through Phoenicia and Samaria, giving news of the salvation of the Gentiles, to the great joy of all the brothers.

bbe@Acts:15:6 @And the Apostles and the rulers of the church came together and gave thought to the question.

bbe@Acts:15:7 @And when there had been much discussion, Peter got up and said to them, My brothers, you have knowledge that some time back it was God's pleasure that by my mouth the good news might be given to the Gentiles so that they might have faith.

bbe@Acts:15:8 @And God, the searcher of hearts, was a witness to them, giving them the Holy Spirit even as he did to us;

bbe@Acts:15:10 @Why then are you testing God, by putting on the neck of the disciples a yoke so hard that not even our fathers or we were strong enough for it?

bbe@Acts:15:13 @And when they had come to an end, James, answering, said, My brothers, give ear to me:

bbe@Acts:15:21 @For Moses, from times long past, has his preachers in every town, reading his law in the Synagogues every Sabbath.

bbe@Acts:15:22 @Then it seemed good to the Apostles and the rulers and all the church, to send men from among them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; Judas, named Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brothers:

bbe@Acts:15:23 @And they sent a letter by them, saying, The Apostles and the older brothers, to the brothers who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, may joy be with you:

bbe@Acts:15:25 @It seemed good to us, having come to an agreement together, to send these men to you, with our well loved Barnabas and Paul,

bbe@Acts:15:30 @So they, being sent away, came down to Antioch, and having got the people together, they gave them the letter.

bbe@Acts:15:32 @And Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, gave teaching to the brothers and made them strong in the faith.

bbe@Acts:15:33 @And when they had been there for some time, they were sent back in peace by the brothers to those who had sent them.

bbe@Acts:15:35 @But Paul and Barnabas kept on in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of God, with a number of others.

bbe@Acts:15:36 @And after some days, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go back and see the brothers in every town where we have given the word of God, and see how they are.

bbe@Acts:15:39 @And there was a sharp argument between them, so that they were parted from one another, and Barnabas took Mark with him and went by ship to Cyprus;

bbe@Acts:15:40 @But Paul took Silas and went away with the blessing of the brothers.

bbe@Acts:16:1 @And he came to Derbe and Lystra: and there was a certain disciple there named Timothy, whose mother was one of the Jews of the faith, but his father was a Greek;

bbe@Acts:16:2 @Of whom the brothers at Lystra and Iconium had a high opinion.

bbe@Acts:16:3 @Paul had a desire for him to go with him, and he gave him circumcision because of the Jews who were in those parts: for they all had knowledge that his father was a Greek.

bbe@Acts:16:12 @And from there to Philippi, which is the most important town of Macedonia and a Roman colony: and we were there for some days.

bbe@Acts:16:13 @And on the Sabbath we went outside the town, by the river, where we had an idea that there would be a place of prayer; and, being seated, we had talk with the women who had come together.

bbe@Acts:16:15 @And when she and her family had had baptism, she made a request to us, saying, If it seems to you that I am true to the Lord, come into my house and be my guests. And she made us come.

bbe@Acts:16:16 @And when we were going to the place of prayer, we came across a girl with a spirit which gave knowledge of the future, whose masters made great profit from her power.

bbe@Acts:16:18 @And this she did on a number of days. But Paul was greatly troubled and, turning, said to the spirit, I give you orders in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out of her. And it came out that very hour.

bbe@Acts:16:19 @But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they took Paul and Silas, pulling them into the market-place before the rulers;

bbe@Acts:16:22 @And the people made an attack on them all together: and the authorities took their clothing off them, and gave orders for them to be whipped.

bbe@Acts:16:26 @And suddenly there was an earth-shock, so that the base of the prison was moved: and all the doors came open, and everyone's chains came off.

bbe@Acts:16:28 @But Paul said in a loud voice, Do yourself no damage, for we are all here.

bbe@Acts:16:40 @And they came out of the prison and went to the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brothers they gave them comfort and went away.

bbe@Acts:17:1 @Now when they had gone through Amphipolis and Apollonia they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Synagogue of the Jews:

bbe@Acts:17:5 @But the Jews, being moved with envy, took with them certain low persons from among the common people, and getting together a great number of people, made an outcry in the town, attacking the house of Jason with the purpose of taking them out to the people.

bbe@Acts:17:6 @And when they were not able to get them, they took Jason and some of the brothers by force before the rulers of the town, crying, These men, who have made trouble all over the world have now come here;

bbe@Acts:17:7 @Whom Jason has taken into his house: and they are acting against the orders of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.

bbe@Acts:17:9 @And having made Jason and the others give an undertaking to keep the peace, they let them go.

bbe@Acts:17:10 @And the brothers straight away sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroea: and they, when they came there, went to the Synagogue of the Jews.

bbe@Acts:17:13 @But when the Jews of Thessalonica had news that Paul was preaching the word at Beroea, they came there, troubling the people and working them up.

bbe@Acts:17:14 @So the brothers sent Paul straight away to the sea: but Silas and Timothy kept there still.

bbe@Acts:17:17 @So he had discussions in the Synagogue with the Jews and God-fearing Gentiles, and every day in the market-place with those who were there.

bbe@Acts:17:18 @And some of those who were supporters of the theories of the Epicureans and the Stoics, had a meeting with him. And some said, What is this talker of foolish words saying? And others, He seems to be a preacher of strange gods: because he was preaching of Jesus and his coming back from the dead.

bbe@Acts:17:21 @(Now all the Athenians and the men from other lands who come there were giving all their time to talking or hearing of anything new.)

bbe@Acts:17:23 @For when I came by, I was looking at the things to which you give worship, and I saw an altar with this writing on it, TO THE GOD OF WHOM THERE IS NO KNOWLEDGE

bbe@Acts:17:32 @Now on hearing about the coming back from death, some of them made sport of it, but others said, Let us go more fully into this another time.

bbe@Acts:17:34 @But some men gave him their support: among whom was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

bbe@Acts:18:2 @And there he came across a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by birth, who not long before had come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had given orders that all Jews were to go away from Rome: and he came to them;

bbe@Acts:18:3 @And because he was of the same trade, he was living with them, and they did their work together; for by trade they were tent-makers.

bbe@Acts:18:7 @And moving from there, he went into the house of a man named Titus Justus, a God-fearing man, whose house was very near the Synagogue.

bbe@Acts:18:11 @And he was there for a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

bbe@Acts:18:12 @But when Gallio was ruler of Achaia, all the Jews together made an attack on Paul, and took him to the judge's seat,

bbe@Acts:18:14 @But when Paul was about to say something, Gallio said to the Jews, If this was anything to do with wrongdoing or crime, there would be a reason for me to give you a hearing:

bbe@Acts:18:18 @And Paul, after waiting some days, went away from the brothers and went by ship to Syria, Priscilla and Aquila being with him; and he had had his hair cut off in Cenchrea, for he had taken an oath.

bbe@Acts:18:19 @And they came down to Ephesus and he left them there: and he himself went into the Synagogue and had a discussion with the Jews.

bbe@Acts:18:20 @And being requested by them to be there for a longer time, he said, No;

bbe@Acts:18:23 @And having been there for some time, he went through the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, making the disciples strong in the faith.

bbe@Acts:18:27 @And when he had a desire to go over into Achaia, the brothers gave him help, and sent letters to the disciples requesting them to take him in among them: and when he had come, he gave much help to those who had faith through grace:

bbe@Acts:19:1 @And it came about that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having gone through the higher country, came to Ephesus, where there were certain disciples:

bbe@Acts:19:7 @And there were about twelve of these men.

bbe@Acts:19:8 @And he went into the Synagogue, and for three months he was preaching there without fear, reasoning and teaching about the kingdom of God.

bbe@Acts:19:14 @And there were seven sons of a man named Sceva, a Jew and a chief priest, who did this.

bbe@Acts:19:21 @Now after these things were ended, Paul came to a decision that when he had gone through Macedonia and Achaia he would go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I have a desire to see Rome.

bbe@Acts:19:24 @For there was a certain man named Demetrius, a silver-worker, who made silver boxes for the images of Diana, and gave no small profit to the workmen;

bbe@Acts:19:25 @Whom he got together, with other workmen of the same trade, and said to them, Men, it is clear that from this business we get our wealth.

bbe@Acts:19:27 @And there is danger, not only that our trade may be damaged in the opinion of men, but that the holy place of the great goddess Diana may be no longer honoured, and that she to whom all Asia and the world give worship, will be put down from her high position.

bbe@Acts:19:32 @And some said one thing, and some another: for there was no order in the meeting; and most of them had no idea why they had come together.

bbe@Acts:19:38 @If, then, Demetrius and the workmen who are with him have a protest to make against any man, the law is open to them, and there are judges; let them put up a cause at law against one another.

bbe@Acts:19:39 @But if any other business is in question, let it be taken up in the regular meeting.

bbe@Acts:19:40 @For, truly, we are in danger of being made responsible for this day's trouble, there being no cause for it: and we are not able to give any reason for this coming together.

bbe@Acts:20:3 @And when he had been there three months, because the Jews had made a secret design against him when he was about to take ship for Syria, he made a decision to go back through Macedonia.

bbe@Acts:20:6 @And we went away from Philippi by ship after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them at Troas in five days; and we were there for seven days.

bbe@Acts:20:7 @And on the first day of the week, when we had come together for the holy meal, Paul gave them a talk, for it was his purpose to go away on the day after; and he went on talking till after the middle of the night.

bbe@Acts:20:8 @And there were a number of lights in the room where we had come together.

bbe@Acts:20:13 @But we, going before him by ship, went to Assos with the purpose of taking Paul in there: for so he had given orders, because he himself was coming by land.

bbe@Acts:20:15 @And going from there by sea, we came on the day after opposite Chios, and touching at Samos on the day after that, we came on the third day to Miletus.

bbe@Acts:20:22 @And now, as you see, I am going to Jerusalem, a prisoner in spirit, having no knowledge of what will come to me there:

bbe@Acts:20:32 @And now, I give you into the care of God and the word of his grace, which is able to make you strong and to give you your heritage among all the saints.

bbe@Acts:20:35 @In all things I was an example to you of how, in your lives, you are to give help to the feeble, and keep in memory the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, There is a greater blessing in giving than in getting.

bbe@Acts:21:1 @And after parting from them, we put out to sea and came straight to Cos, and the day after to Rhodes, and from there to Patara:

bbe@Acts:21:2 @And as there was a ship going to Phoenicia, we went in it.

bbe@Acts:21:3 @And when we had come in view of Cyprus, going past it on our left, we went on to Syria, and came to land at Tyre: for there the goods which were in the ship had to be taken out.

bbe@Acts:21:4 @And meeting the disciples we were there for seven days: and they gave Paul orders through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.

bbe@Acts:21:6 @We said our last words to one another, and got into the ship, and they went back to their houses.

bbe@Acts:21:7 @And journeying by ship from Tyre we came to Ptolemais; and there we had talk with the brothers and were with them for one day.

bbe@Acts:21:8 @And on the day after, we went away and came to Caesarea, where we were guests in the house of Philip, the preacher, who was one of the seven.

bbe@Acts:21:10 @And while we were waiting there for some days, a certain prophet, named Agabus, came down from Judaea.

bbe@Acts:21:17 @And when we came to Jerusalem, the brothers were pleased to see us.

bbe@Acts:21:20 @And hearing it, they gave praise to God; and they said to him, You see, brother, what thousands there are among the Jews, who have the faith; and they all have a great respect for the law:

bbe@Acts:21:27 @And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the Temple, got the people together and put their hands on him,

bbe@Acts:21:28 @Crying out, Men of Israel, come to our help: this is the man who is teaching all men everywhere against the people and the law and this place: and in addition, he has taken Greeks into the Temple, and made this holy place unclean.

bbe@Acts:21:30 @And all the town was moved, and the people came running together and put their hands on Paul, pulling him out of the Temple: and then the doors were shut.

bbe@Acts:21:34 @And some said one thing and some another, among the people: and as he was not able to get a knowledge of the facts because of the noise, he gave orders for Paul to be taken into the army building.

bbe@Acts:22:1 @My brothers and fathers, give ear to the story of my life which I now put before you.

bbe@Acts:22:3 @I am a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia by birth, but I had my education in this town at the feet of Gamaliel, being trained in the keeping of every detail of the law of our fathers; given up to the cause of God with all my heart, as you are today.

bbe@Acts:22:5 @Of which the high priest will be a witness, and all the rulers, from whom I had letters to the brothers; and I went into Damascus, to take those who were there as prisoners to Jerusalem for punishment.

bbe@Acts:22:13 @Came to my side and said, Brother Saul, let your eyes be open. And in that very hour I was able to see him.

bbe@Acts:22:14 @And he said, You have been marked out by the God of our fathers to have knowledge of his purpose, and to see the Upright One and to give ear to the words of his mouth.

bbe@Acts:22:20 @And when Stephen your witness was put to death, I was there, giving approval, and looking after the clothing of those who put him to death.

bbe@Acts:22:25 @And when they had put leather bands round him, Paul said to the captain who was present, Is it the law for you to give blows to a man who is a Roman and has not been judged?

bbe@Acts:22:30 @But on the day after, desiring to have certain knowledge of what the Jews had to say against him, he made him free, and gave orders for the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin to come together, and he took Paul and put him before them.

bbe@Acts:23:1 @And Paul, looking fixedly at the Sanhedrin, said, My brothers, my life has been upright before God till this day.

bbe@Acts:23:3 @Then Paul said to him, God will give blows to you, you whitewashed wall: are you here to be my judge by law, and by your orders am I given blows against the law?

bbe@Acts:23:5 @And Paul said, Brother, I had no idea that he was the high priest: for it has been said, You may not say evil about the ruler of your people.

bbe@Acts:23:6 @But when Paul saw that half of them were Sadducees and the rest Pharisees, he said in the Sanhedrin, Brothers, I am a Pharisee, and the son of Pharisees: I am here to be judged on the question of the hope of the coming back from the dead.

bbe@Acts:23:7 @And when he had said this, there was an argument between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and a division in the meeting.

bbe@Acts:23:8 @For the Sadducees say that there is no coming back from the dead, and no angels or spirits: but the Pharisees have belief in all these.

bbe@Acts:23:9 @And there was a great outcry: and some of the scribes on the side of the Pharisees got up and took part in the discussion, saying, We see no evil in this man: what if he has had a revelation from an angel or a spirit?

bbe@Acts:23:12 @And when it was day, the Jews came together and put themselves under an oath that they would take no food or drink till they had put Paul to death.

bbe@Acts:23:20 @And he said, The Jews are in agreement together to make a request to you for Paul to be taken, on the day after this, into the Sanhedrin, to be questioned in greater detail.

bbe@Acts:23:35 @I will give hearing to your cause, he said, when those who are against you have come. And he gave orders for him to be kept in Herod's Praetorium.

bbe@Acts:24:14 @But this I will say openly to you, that I do give worship to the God of our fathers after that Way, which to them is not the true religion: but I have belief in all the things which are in the law and in the books of the prophets:

bbe@Acts:24:15 @Hoping in God for that which they themselves are looking for, that there will be a coming back from the dead for upright men and wrongdoers.

bbe@Acts:24:18 @And having been made clean, I was in the Temple, but not with a great number of people, and not with noise: but there were certain Jews from Asia,

bbe@Acts:24:19 @And it would have been better if they had come here to make a statement, if they have anything against me.

bbe@Acts:24:20 @Or let these men here present say what wrongdoing was seen in me when I was before the Sanhedrin,

bbe@Acts:25:4 @But Festus, in answer, said that Paul was being kept in prison at Caesarea, and that in a short time he himself was going there.

bbe@Acts:25:5 @So, he said, let those who have authority among you go with me, and if there is any wrong in the man, let them make a statement against him.

bbe@Acts:25:9 @But Festus, desiring to get the approval of the Jews, said to Paul, Will you go up to Jerusalem, and be judged before me there in connection with these things?

bbe@Acts:25:10 @And Paul said, I am before the seat of Caesar's authority where it is right for me to be judged: I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you are well able to see.

bbe@Acts:25:11 @If, then, I am a wrongdoer and there is a cause of death in me, I am ready for death: if it is not as they say against me, no man may give me up to them. Let my cause come before Caesar.

bbe@Acts:25:14 @And as they were there for some days, Festus gave them Paul's story, saying, There is a certain man here who was put in prison by Felix:

bbe@Acts:25:17 @So, when they had come together here, straight away, on the day after, I took my place on the judge's seat and sent for the man.

bbe@Acts:25:20 @And as I had not enough knowledge for the discussion of these things, I made the suggestion to him to go to Jerusalem and be judged there.

bbe@Acts:25:24 @And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all those who are present here with us, you see this man, about whom all the Jews have made protests to me, at Jerusalem and in this place, saying that it is not right for him to be living any longer.

bbe@Acts:25:25 @But, in my opinion, there is no cause of death in him, and as he himself has made a request to be judged by Caesar, I have said that I would send him.

bbe@Acts:25:27 @For it seems to me against reason to send a prisoner without making clear what there is against him.

bbe@Acts:26:6 @And now I am here to be judged because of the hope given by God's word to our fathers;

bbe@Acts:26:18 @To make their eyes open, turning them from the dark to the light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may have forgiveness of sins and a heritage among those who are made holy by faith in me.

bbe@Acts:26:22 @And so, by God's help, I am here today, witnessing to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come about;

bbe@Acts:26:31 @And when they had gone away they said to one another, This man has done nothing which might give cause for death or prison.

bbe@Acts:27:1 @And when the decision had been made that we were to go by sea to Italy, they gave Paul and certain other prisoners into the care of a captain named Julius, of the Augustan band.

bbe@Acts:27:4 @And sailing again from there, we went on under cover of Cyprus, because the wind was against us.

bbe@Acts:27:6 @And there the captain came across a ship of Alexandria, sailing for Italy, and put us in it.

bbe@Acts:27:22 @But now, I say to you, be of good heart, for there will be no loss of life, but only of the ship.

bbe@Acts:27:23 @For this night there came to my side an angel of the God who is my Master and whose servant I am,

bbe@Acts:27:27 @But when the fourteenth day came, while we were going here and there in the Adriatic sea, about the middle of the night the sailors had an idea that they were getting near land;

bbe@Acts:27:32 @Then the armed men, cutting the cords of the boat, let her go.

bbe@Acts:28:2 @And the simple people living there were uncommonly kind to us, for they made a fire for us, and took us in, because it was raining and cold.

bbe@Acts:28:3 @But when Paul had got some sticks together and put them on the fire, a snake came out, because of the heat, and gave him a bite on the hand.

bbe@Acts:28:4 @And when the people saw it hanging on his hand, they said to one another, Without doubt this man has put someone to death, and though he has got safely away from the sea, God will not let him go on living.

bbe@Acts:28:7 @Now near that place there was some land, the property of the chief man of the island, who was named Publius; who very kindly took us into his house as his guests for three days.

bbe@Acts:28:8 @And the father of Publius was ill, with a disease of the stomach; to whom Paul went, and put his hands on him, with prayer, and made him well.

bbe@Acts:28:9 @And when this took place, all the others in the island who had diseases came and were made well.

bbe@Acts:28:12 @And going into the harbour at Syracuse, we were waiting there for three days.

bbe@Acts:28:13 @And from there, going about in a curve, we came to Rhegium: and after one day a south wind came up and on the day after we came to Puteoli:

bbe@Acts:28:14 @Where we came across some of the brothers, who kept us with them for seven days; and so we came to Rome.

bbe@Acts:28:15 @And the brothers, when they had news of us, came out from town as far as Appii Forum and the Three Taverns to have a meeting with us: and Paul, seeing them, gave praise to God and took heart

bbe@Acts:28:17 @Then after three days he sent for the chief men of the Jews: and when they had come together, he said to them, My brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the ways of our fathers, I was given, a prisoner from Jerusalem, into the hands of the Romans.

bbe@Acts:28:18 @Who, when they had put questions to me, were ready to let me go free, because there was no cause of death in me.

bbe@Acts:28:21 @And they said to him, We have not had letters from Judaea about you, and no one of the brothers has come to us here to give an account or say any evil about you.

bbe@Acts:28:25 @And they went away, for there was a division among them after Paul had said this one thing: Well did the Holy Spirit say by the prophet Isaiah to your fathers,

bbe@Romans:1:1 @Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, an Apostle by the selection of God, given authority as a preacher of the good news,

bbe@Romans:1:7 @To all those who are in Rome, loved by God, marked out as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Romans:1:12 @That is to say, that all of us may be comforted together by the faith which is in you and in me.

bbe@Romans:1:13 @You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you (but till now I was kept from it), so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.

bbe@Romans:1:17 @For in it there is the revelation of the righteousness of God from faith to faith: as it is said in the holy Writings, The man who does righteousness will be living by his faith.

bbe@Romans:1:18 @For there is a revelation of the wrath of God from heaven against all the wrongdoing and evil thoughts of men who keep down what is true by wrongdoing;

bbe@Romans:1:24 @For this reason God gave them up to the evil desires of their hearts, working shame in their bodies with one another:

bbe@Romans:1:27 @And in the same way the men gave up the natural use of the woman and were burning in their desire for one another, men doing shame with men, and getting in their bodies the right reward of their evil-doing.

bbe@Romans:1:29 @Being full of all wrongdoing, evil, desire for the goods of others, hate, envy, putting to death, fighting, deceit, cruel ways, evil talk, and false statements about others;

bbe@Romans:1:30 @Hated by God, full of pride, without respect, full of loud talk, given to evil inventions, not honouring father or mother,

bbe@Romans:2:1 @So you have no reason, whoever you are, for judging: for in judging another you are judging yourself, for you do the same things.

bbe@Romans:2:3 @But you who are judging another for doing what you do yourself, are you hoping that God's decision will not take effect against you?

bbe@Romans:2:11 @For one man is not different from another before God.

bbe@Romans:2:15 @Because the work of the law is seen in their hearts, their sense of right and wrong giving witness to it, while their minds are at one time judging them and at another giving them approval;

bbe@Romans:2:16 @In the day when God will be a judge of the secrets of men, as it says in the good news of which I am a preacher, through Jesus Christ.

bbe@Romans:2:20 @A teacher of the foolish, having in the law the form of knowledge and of what is true;

bbe@Romans:2:21 @You who give teaching to others, do you give it to yourself? you who say that a man may not take what is not his, do you take what is not yours?

bbe@Romans:3:1 @How then is the Jew better off? or what profit is there in circumcision?

bbe@Romans:3:10 @As it is said in the holy Writings, There is not one who does righteousness;

bbe@Romans:3:11 @Not one who has the knowledge of what is right, not one who is a searcher after God;

bbe@Romans:3:12 @They have all gone out of the way, there is no profit in any of them; there is not one who does good, not so much as one:

bbe@Romans:3:18 @There is no fear of God before their eyes.

bbe@Romans:3:21 @But now without the law there is a revelation of the righteousness of God, to which witness is given by the law and the prophets;

bbe@Romans:3:22 @That is, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ, to all those who have faith; and one man is not different from another,

bbe@Romans:3:27 @What reason, then, is there for pride? It is shut out. By what sort of law? of works? No, but by a law of faith.

bbe@Romans:4:1 @What, then, may we say that Abraham, our father after the flesh, has got?

bbe@Romans:4:6 @As David says that there is a blessing on the man to whose account God puts righteousness without works, saying,

bbe@Romans:4:11 @And he was given the sign of circumcision as a witness of the faith which he had before he underwent circumcision: so that he might be the father of all those who have faith, though they have not circumcision, and so that righteousness might be put to their account;

bbe@Romans:4:12 @And the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who keep to the way of that faith which our father Abraham had before he underwent circumcision.

bbe@Romans:4:13 @For God's word, that the earth would be his heritage, was given to Abraham, not through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

bbe@Romans:4:14 @For if they who are of the law are the people who get the heritage, then faith is made of no use, and the word of God has no power;

bbe@Romans:4:15 @For the outcome of the law is wrath; but where there is no law it will not be broken.

bbe@Romans:4:16 @For this reason it is of faith, so that it may be through grace; and so that the word of God may be certain to all the seed; not only to that which is of the law, but to that which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all,

bbe@Romans:4:17 @(As it is said in the holy Writings, I have made you a father of a number of nations) before him in whom he had faith, that is, God, who gives life to the dead, and to whom the things which are not are as if they were.

bbe@Romans:4:18 @Who without reason for hope, in faith went on hoping, so that he became the father of a number of nations, as it had been said, So will your seed be.

bbe@Romans:5:13 @Because, till the law came, sin was in existence, but sin is not put to the account of anyone when there is no law to be broken.

bbe@Romans:5:20 @And the law came in addition, to make wrongdoing worse; but where there was much sin, there was much more grace:

bbe@Romans:6:1 @What may we say, then? are we to go on in sin so that there may be more grace?

bbe@Romans:6:4 @We have been placed with him among the dead through baptism into death: so that as Christ came again from the dead by the glory of the Father, we, in the same way, might be living in new life.

bbe@Romans:7:1 @Is it not clear, my brothers (I am using an argument to those who have knowledge of the law), that the law has power over a man as long as he is living?

bbe@Romans:7:2 @For the woman who has a husband is placed by the law under the power of her husband as long as he is living; but if her husband is dead, she is free from the law of the husband.

bbe@Romans:7:3 @So if, while the husband is living, she is joined to another man, she will get the name of one who is untrue to her husband: but if the husband is dead, she is free from the law, so that she is not untrue, even if she takes another man.

bbe@Romans:7:4 @In the same way, my brothers, you were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, so that you might be joined to another, even to him who came again from the dead, so that we might give fruit to God.

bbe@Romans:7:7 @What then is to be said? is the law sin? in no way. But I would not have had knowledge of sin but for the law: for I would not have been conscious of desire if the law had not said, You may not have a desire for what is another's.

bbe@Romans:7:9 @And there was a time when I was living without the law: but when the law gave its orders, sin came to life and put me to death;

bbe@Romans:7:18 @For I am conscious that in me, that is, in my flesh, there is nothing good: I have the mind but not the power to do what is right.

bbe@Romans:7:23 @But I see another law in my body, working against the law of my mind, and making me the servant of the law of sin which is in my flesh.

bbe@Romans:8:12 @So then, my brothers, we are in debt, not to the flesh to be living in the way of the flesh:

bbe@Romans:8:15 @For you did not get the spirit of servants again to put you in fear, but the spirit of sons was given to you, by which we say, Abba, Father.

bbe@Romans:8:17 @And if we are children, we have a right to a part in the heritage; a part in the things of God, together with Christ; so that if we have a part in his pain, we will in the same way have a part in his glory.

bbe@Romans:8:18 @I am of the opinion that there is no comparison between the pain of this present time and the glory which we will see in the future

bbe@Romans:8:22 @For we are conscious that all living things are weeping and sorrowing in pain together till now.

bbe@Romans:8:27 @And he who is the searcher of hearts has knowledge of the mind of the Spirit, because he is making prayers for the saints in agreement with the mind of God.

bbe@Romans:8:28 @And we are conscious that all things are working together for good to those who have love for God, and have been marked out by his purpose.

bbe@Romans:8:29 @Because those of whom he had knowledge before they came into existence, were marked out by him to be made like his Son, so that he might be the first among a band of brothers:

bbe@Romans:9:3 @For I have a desire to take on myself the curse for my brothers, my family in the flesh:

bbe@Romans:9:5 @Whose are the fathers, and of whom came Christ in the flesh, who is over all, God, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it.

bbe@Romans:9:10 @And not only so, but Rebecca being about to have a child by our father Isaac--

bbe@Romans:9:12 @It was said to her, The older will be the servant of the younger.

bbe@Romans:9:17 @For the holy Writings say to Pharaoh, For this same purpose did I put you on high, so that I might make my power seen in you, and that there might be knowledge of my name through all the earth.

bbe@Romans:9:21 @Or has not the potter the right to make out of one part of his earth a vessel for honour, and out of another a vessel for shame?

bbe@Romans:9:26 @And in the place where it was said to them, You are not my people, there they will be named the sons of the living God.

bbe@Romans:10:1 @Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God for them is, that they may get salvation.

bbe@Romans:10:8 @But what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart: that is, the word of faith of which we are the preachers:

bbe@Romans:10:12 @And the Jew is not different from the Greek: for there is the same Lord of all, who is good to all who have hope in his name:

bbe@Romans:10:14 @But how will they give worship to him in whom they have no faith? and how will they have faith in him of whom they have not had news? and how will they have news without a preacher?

bbe@Romans:10:15 @And how will there be preachers if they are not sent? As it is said, How beautiful are the feet of those who give the glad news of good things.

bbe@Romans:11:1 @So I say, Has God put his people on one side? Let there be no such thought. For I am of Israel, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

bbe@Romans:11:5 @In the same way, there are at this present time some who are marked out by the selection of grace.

bbe@Romans:11:25 @For it is my desire, brothers, that this secret may be clear to you, so that you may not have pride in your knowledge, that Israel has been made hard in part, till all the Gentiles have come in;

bbe@Romans:11:26 @And so all Israel will get salvation: as it is said in the holy Writings, There will come out of Zion the One who makes free; by him wrongdoing will be taken away from Jacob:

bbe@Romans:11:28 @As far as the good news is in question, they are cut off from God on account of you, but as far as the selection is in question, they are loved on account of the fathers.

bbe@Romans:12:1 @For this reason I make request to you, brothers, by the mercies of God, that you will give your bodies as a living offering, holy, pleasing to God, which is the worship it is right for you to give him.

bbe@Romans:12:5 @So we, though we are a number of persons, are one body in Christ, and are dependent on one another;

bbe@Romans:12:8 @He who has the power of comforting, let him do so; he who gives, let him give freely; he who has the power of ruling, let him do it with a serious mind; he who has mercy on others, let it be with joy.

bbe@Romans:12:10 @Be kind to one another with a brother's love, putting others before yourselves in honour;

bbe@Romans:12:16 @Be in harmony with one another. Do not have a high opinion of yourselves, but be in agreement with common people. Do not give yourselves an air of wisdom.

bbe@Romans:12:19 @Do not give punishment for wrongs done to you, dear brothers, but give way to the wrath of God; for it is said in the holy Writings, Punishment is mine, I will give reward, says the Lord.

bbe@Romans:13:1 @Let everyone put himself under the authority of the higher powers, because there is no power which is not of God, and all powers are ordered by God.

bbe@Romans:13:8 @Be in debt for nothing, but to have love for one another: for he who has love for his neighbour has kept all the law.

bbe@Romans:13:9 @And this, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not put to death, Do not take what is another's, Do not have desire for what is another's, and if there is any other order, it is covered by this word, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

bbe@Romans:14:2 @One man has faith to take all things as food: another who is feeble in faith takes only green food.

bbe@Romans:14:4 @Who are you to make yourself a judge of another man's servant? it is to his master that he is responsible for good or bad. Yes, his place will be safe, because the Lord is able to keep him from falling.

bbe@Romans:14:5 @This man puts one day before another: to that man they are the same. Let every man be certain in his mind.

bbe@Romans:14:7 @For every man's life and every man's death has a relation to others as well as to himself.

bbe@Romans:14:10 @But you, why do you make yourself your brother's judge? or again, why have you no respect for your brother? because we will all have to take our place before God as our judge.

bbe@Romans:14:13 @Then let us not be judges of one another any longer: but keep this in mind, that no man is to make it hard for his brother, or give him cause for doubting.

bbe@Romans:14:15 @And if because of food your brother is troubled, then you are no longer going on in the way of love. Do not let your food be destruction to him for whom Christ went into death.

bbe@Romans:14:19 @So then, let us go after the things which make peace, and the things by which we may be a help to one another.

bbe@Romans:14:20 @Do not let the work of God come to nothing on account of food. All things are certainly clean; but it is evil for that man who by taking food makes it hard for another.

bbe@Romans:14:21 @It is better not to take meat or wine or to do anything which might be a cause of trouble to your brother.

bbe@Romans:15:5 @Now may the God who gives comfort and strength in waiting make you of the same mind with one another in harmony with Christ Jesus:

bbe@Romans:15:6 @So that with one mouth you may give glory to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Romans:15:7 @So then, take one another to your hearts, as Christ took us, to the glory of God.

bbe@Romans:15:8 @Now I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision to give effect to the undertakings given by God to the fathers,

bbe@Romans:15:12 @And again Isaiah says, There will be the root of Jesse, and he who comes to be the ruler over the Gentiles; in him will the Gentiles put their hope.

bbe@Romans:15:14 @And I myself am certain of you, brothers, that you are full of what is good, complete in all knowledge, able to give direction to one another.

bbe@Romans:15:20 @Making it my purpose not to take the good news where Christ was named, so that my work might not be resting on that of others;

bbe@Romans:15:24 @Whenever I go to Spain (for it is my hope to see you on my way, and to be sent on there by you, if first I may in some measure have been comforted by your company)--

bbe@Romans:15:30 @Now I make request to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you will be working together with me in your prayers to God for me;

bbe@Romans:16:2 @That you will take her in kindly, after the way of the saints, as one who is the Lord's, and give her help in anything in which she may have need of you: because she has been a help to a great number and to myself.

bbe@Romans:16:11 @Give my love to Herodion, my relation. Say a kind word to those of the house of Narcissus, who are in the Lord.

bbe@Romans:16:13 @Give my love to Rufus, one of the Lord's selection, and to his mother and mine.

bbe@Romans:16:14 @Give my love to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them.

bbe@Romans:16:16 @Give one another a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send their love to you.

bbe@Romans:16:17 @Now, it is my desire, brothers, that you will take note of those who are causing division and trouble among you, quite against the teaching which was given to you: and keep away from them.

bbe@Romans:16:23 @Gaius, with whom I am living, whose house is open to all the church, sends his love, so does Erastus, the manager of the accounts of the town, and Quartus, the brother.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:1 @Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the purpose of God, and Sosthenes the brother,

bbe@1Corinthians:1:3 @Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:10 @Now I make request to you, my brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you will all say the same thing, and that there may be no divisions among you, so that you may be in complete agreement, in the same mind and in the same opinion.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:11 @Because it has come to my knowledge, through those of the house of Chloe, that there are divisions among you, my brothers.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:13 @Is there a division in Christ? was Paul nailed to the cross for you? or were you given baptism in the name of Paul?

bbe@1Corinthians:1:16 @And I gave baptism to the house of Stephanas; but I am not certain that any others had baptism from me.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:17 @For Christ sent me, not to give baptism, but to be a preacher of the good news: not with wise words, for fear that the cross of Christ might be made of no value.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:20 @Where is the wise? where is he who has knowledge of the law? where is the man of this world who has a love of discussion? has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

bbe@1Corinthians:1:26 @For you see God's design for you, my brothers, that he has not taken a great number of the wise after the flesh, not the strong, not the noble:

bbe@1Corinthians:2:1 @And when I came to you, my brothers, I did not come with wise words of knowledge, putting before you the secret of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:4 @And in my preaching there were no honeyed words of wisdom, but I was dependent on the power of the Spirit to make it clear to you:

bbe@1Corinthians:2:16 @For who has knowledge of the mind of the Lord, so as to be his teacher? But we have the mind of Christ.

bbe@1Corinthians:3:1 @And the teaching I gave you, my brothers, was such as I was able to give, not to those who have the Spirit, but to those who are still in the flesh, even to children in Christ.

bbe@1Corinthians:3:3 @Because you are still in the flesh: for when there is envy and division among you, are you not still walking after the way of the flesh, even as natural men?

bbe@1Corinthians:3:4 @For when one says, I am of Paul; and another says, I am of Apollos; are you not talking like natural men?

bbe@1Corinthians:3:10 @In the measure of the grace given to me, I, as a wise master-builder, have put the base in position, and another goes on building on it

bbe@1Corinthians:3:11 @For there is no other base for the building but that which has been put down, which is Jesus Christ.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:5 @For this reason let there be no judging before the time, till the Lord comes, who will make clear the secret things of the dark, and the designs of the heart; and then will every man have his praise from God.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:6 @My brothers, it is because of you that I have taken Apollos and myself as examples of these things, so that in us you might see that it is not wise to go farther than what is in the holy Writings, so that no one of you may be lifted up against his brother.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:7 @For who made you better than your brother? or what have you that has not been given to you? but if it has been given to you, what cause have you for pride, as if it had not been given to you?

bbe@1Corinthians:4:15 @For even if you had ten thousand teachers in Christ, you have not more than one father: for in Christ Jesus I have given birth to you through the good news.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:17 @For this cause I have sent Timothy to you, who is my dear and true child in the Lord; he will make clear to you my ways in Christ, even as I am teaching everywhere in every church.

bbe@1Corinthians:5:1 @It is said, in fact, that there is among you a sin of the flesh, such as is not seen even among the Gentiles, that one of you has his father's wife.

bbe@1Corinthians:5:4 @In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you have come together with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

bbe@1Corinthians:5:10 @But I had not in mind the sinners who are outside the church, or those who have a desire for and take the property of others, or those who give worship to images; for it is not possible to keep away from such people without going out of the world completely:

bbe@1Corinthians:5:11 @But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.

bbe@1Corinthians:6:1 @How is it, that if any one of you has a cause at law against another, he takes it before a Gentile judge and not before the saints?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:4 @If then there are questions to be judged in connection with the things of this life, why do you put them in the hands of those who have no position in the church?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:5 @I say this to put you to shame. Is there not among you one wise man who may be able to give a decision between his brothers?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:6 @But a brother who has a cause at law against another takes it before Gentile judges.

bbe@1Corinthians:6:7 @More than this, it is not to your credit to have causes at law with one another at all. Why not put up with wrong? why not undergo loss?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:8 @So far from doing this, you yourselves do wrong and take your brothers' property.

bbe@1Corinthians:6:13 @Food is for the stomach and the stomach for food, and God will put an end to them together. But the body is not for the desires of the flesh, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body:

bbe@1Corinthians:6:16 @Or do you not see that he who is joined to a loose woman is one body with her? for God has said, The two of them will become one flesh.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:2 @But because of the desires of the flesh, let every man have his wife, and every woman her husband.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:4 @The wife has not power over her body, but the husband; and in the same way the husband has not power over his body, but the wife.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:5 @Do not keep back from one another what is right, but only for a short time, and by agreement, so that you may give yourselves to prayer, and come together again; so that Satan may not get the better of you through your loss of self-control.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:10 @But to the married I give orders, though not I but the Lord, that the wife may not go away from her husband

bbe@1Corinthians:7:11 @(Or if she goes away from him, let her keep unmarried, or be united to her husband again); and that the husband may not go away from his wife.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:12 @But to the rest I say, and not the Lord; If a brother has a wife who is not a Christian, and it is her desire to go on living with him, let him not go away from her.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:13 @And if a woman has a husband who is not a Christian, and it is his desire to go on living with her, let her not go away from her husband.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:14 @For the husband who has not faith is made holy through his Christian wife, and the wife who is not a Christian is made holy through the brother: if not, your children would be unholy, but now are they holy.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:15 @But if the one who is not a Christian has a desire to go away, let it be so: the brother or the sister in such a position is not forced to do one thing or the other: but it is God's pleasure that we may be at peace with one another.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:24 @My brothers, let every man keep in that condition which is the purpose of God for him.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:27 @If you are married to a wife, make no attempt to get free from her: if you are free from a wife, do not take a wife.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:29 @But I say this, my brothers, the time is short; and from now it will be wise for those who have wives to be as if they had them not;

bbe@1Corinthians:7:34 @And the wife is not the same as the virgin. The virgin gives her mind to the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy in body and in spirit: but the married woman takes thought for the things of the world, how she may give pleasure to her husband.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:36 @But if, in any man's opinion, he is not doing what is right for his virgin, if she is past her best years, and there is need for it, let him do what seems right to him; it is no sin; let them be married.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:37 @But the man who is strong in mind and purpose, who is not forced but has control over his desires, does well if he comes to the decision to keep her a virgin.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:38 @So then, he who gets married to his virgin does well, and he who keeps her unmarried does better.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:39 @It is right for a wife to be with her husband as long as he is living; but when her husband is dead, she is free to be married to another; but only to a Christian.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:40 @But it will be better for her to keep as she is, in my opinion: and it seems to me that I have the Spirit of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:8:4 @So, then, as to the question of taking food offered to images, we are certain that an image is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

bbe@1Corinthians:8:5 @For though there are those who have the name of gods, in heaven or on earth, as there are a number of gods and a number of lords,

bbe@1Corinthians:8:6 @There is for us only one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we are for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we have our being through him.

bbe@1Corinthians:8:11 @And so, through your knowledge, you are the cause of destruction to your brother, for whom Christ underwent death.

bbe@1Corinthians:8:12 @And in this way, doing evil to the brothers, and causing trouble to those whose faith is feeble, you are sinning against Christ.

bbe@1Corinthians:8:13 @For this reason, if food is a cause of trouble to my brother, I will give up taking meat for ever, so that I may not be a cause of trouble to my brother.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:2 @If to others I am not an Apostle, at least I am one to you: for the fact that you are Christians is the sign that I am an Apostle.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:5 @Have we no right to take about with us a Christian wife, like the rest of the Apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

bbe@1Corinthians:9:12 @If others have a part in this right over you, have we not even more? But we did not make use of our right, so that we might put nothing in the way of the good news of Christ.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:14 @Even so did the Lord give orders that the preachers of the good news might get their living from the good news.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:16 @For if I am a preacher of the good news, I have no cause for pride in this; because I am forced to do so, for a curse is on me if I do not.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:18 @What then is my reward? This, that when I am giving the good news, I may give it without payment, not making use of my rights as a preacher of the good news.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:27 @But I give blows to my body, and keep it under control, for fear that, after having given the good news to others, I myself might not have God's approval.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:1 @For it is my desire, my brothers, that you may keep in mind how all our fathers were under the cloud, and they all went through the sea;

bbe@1Corinthians:10:14 @For this cause, my dear brothers, give no worship to false gods.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:23 @We are free to do all things, but there are things which it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things, but not all things are for the common good.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:29 @Right and wrong, I say, not for you, but for the other man; for the fact that I am free is not dependent on another man's sense of right or wrong.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:31 @So then, if it is a question of food or drink, or any other thing, whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:33 @Even as I give way to all men in all things, not looking for profit for myself, but for the good of others, that they may get salvation.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:5 @But every woman who does so with her head unveiled, puts shame on her head: for it is the same as if her hair was cut off.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:6 @For if a woman is not veiled, let her hair be cut off; but if it is a shame to a woman to have her hair cut off, let her be veiled.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:10 @For this reason it is right for the woman to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:15 @But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given to her for a covering.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:17 @But in giving you this order, there is one thing about which I am not pleased: it is that when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:18 @For first of all, it has come to my ears that when you come together in the church, there are divisions among you, and I take the statement to be true in part.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:20 @But now, when you come together, it is not possible to take the holy meal of the Lord:

bbe@1Corinthians:11:21 @For when you take your food, everyone takes his meal before the other; and one has not enough food, and another is the worse for drink.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:33 @So then, my brothers, when you come together to the holy meal of the Lord, let there be waiting for one another.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:34 @If any man is in need of food, let him take his meal in his house; so that you may not come together to your damage. And the rest I will put in order when I come.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:1 @But about the things of the spirit, my brothers, it is not right for you to be without teaching.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:4 @Now there are different qualities given to men, but the same Spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:5 @And there are different sorts of servants, but the same Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:6 @And there are different operations, but the same God, who is working all things in all.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:8 @For to one are given words of wisdom through the Spirit; and to another words of knowledge through the same Spirit:

bbe@1Corinthians:12:9 @To another faith in the same Spirit; and to another the power of taking away disease, by the one Spirit;

bbe@1Corinthians:12:10 @And to another the power of working wonders; and to another the prophet's word; and to another the power of testing spirits; to another different sorts of tongues; and to another the power of making clear the sense of the tongues:

bbe@1Corinthians:12:17 @If all the body was an eye, where would be the hearing? if all was hearing, where would be the smelling?

bbe@1Corinthians:12:19 @And if they were all one part, where would the body be?

bbe@1Corinthians:12:24 @But those parts of the body which are beautiful have no need of such care: and so the body has been joined together by God in such a way as to give more honour to those parts which had need of it;

bbe@1Corinthians:12:25 @So that there might be no division in the body; but all the parts might have the same care for one another.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:26 @And if there is pain in one part of the body, all the parts will be feeling it; or if one part is honoured, all the parts will be glad.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:28 @And God has put some in the church, first, Apostles; second, prophets; third, teachers; then those with wonder-working powers, then those with the power of taking away disease, helpers, wise guides, users of strange tongues.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:29 @Are all Apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? have all the power of working wonders?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:6 @But, now, my brothers, if I come to you using tongues, what profit will it be to you, if I do not give you a revelation, or knowledge, or the word of the prophet, or teaching?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:7 @Even things without life, having a voice, such as a music-pipe or other instrument, if they do not give out different sounds, who may be certain what is being played?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:10 @There are, it may be, a number of different voices in the world, and no voice is without sense.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:19 @But in the church it would be better for me to make use of five words of which the sense was clear, so that others might have profit, than ten thousand words in a strange tongue.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:20 @My brothers, do not be children in mind: in evil be as little children, but in mind be of full growth.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:21 @In the law it is said, By men of other tongues and by strange lips will my words come to this people; and not even so will they give ear to me, says the Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:23 @If, then, the church has come together, and all are using tongues, and there come in men without knowledge or faith, will they not say that you are unbalanced?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:26 @What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:28 @But if there is no one to give the sense, let him keep quiet in the church; and let his words be to himself and to God.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:29 @And let the prophets give their words, but not more than two or three, and let the others be judges of what they say.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:30 @But if a revelation is given to another who is seated near, let the first be quiet.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:39 @So then, my brothers, let it be your chief desire to be prophets; but let no one be stopped from using tongues.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:1 @Now I am going to make clear to you, my brothers, what the good news was which I gave to you, and which you took, and on which your faith is based,

bbe@1Corinthians:15:6 @Then by more than five hundred brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, but some are sleeping;

bbe@1Corinthians:15:11 @If then it is I who am the preacher, or they, this is our word, and to this you have given your faith.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:12 @Now if the good news says that Christ came back from the dead, how do some of you say that there is no coming back from the dead?

bbe@1Corinthians:15:13 @But if there is no coming back from the dead, then Christ has not come back from the dead:

bbe@1Corinthians:15:15 @Yes, and we are seen to be false witnesses of God; because we gave witness of God that by his power Christ came again from the dead: which is not true if there is no coming back from the dead.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:21 @For as by man came death, so by man there is a coming back from the dead.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:24 @Then comes the end, when he will give up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he will have put an end to all rule and to all authority and power.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:31 @Yes, truly, by your pride in me, my brothers in Christ Jesus our Lord, my life is one long death.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:37 @And when you put it into the earth, you do not put in the body which it will be, but only the seed, of grain or some other sort of plant;

bbe@1Corinthians:15:39 @All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, and another of fishes.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:40 @And there are bodies of heaven and bodies of earth, but the glory of the one is different from that of the other.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:41 @There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for the glory of one star is different from that of another.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:44 @It is planted a natural body; it comes again as a body of the spirit. If there is a natural body, there is equally a body of the spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:50 @Now I say this, my brothers, that it is not possible for flesh and blood to have a part in the kingdom of God; and death may not have a part in life.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:55 @O death, where is your power? O death, where are your pains?

bbe@1Corinthians:15:58 @For this cause, my dear brothers, be strong in purpose and unmoved, ever giving yourselves to the work of the Lord, because you are certain that your work is not without effect in the Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:2 @On the first day of the week, let every one of you put by him in store, in measure as he has done well in business, so that it may not be necessary to get money together when I come.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:3 @And when I come, I will send the men of your selection with letters to take the money you have got together to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:4 @And if it is possible for me to go there, they will go with me.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:6 @But I may be with you for a time, or even for the winter, so that you may see me on my way, wherever I go.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:9 @For a great and important door there is open to me, and there are a number of people against me.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:11 @See then that he has the honour which is right. But send him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me: for I am looking for him with the brothers.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:12 @But as for Apollos, the brother, I had a great desire for him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not his pleasure to come now; but he will come when he has a chance.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:15 @Now I make my request to you, my brothers, for you have knowledge that the house of Stephanas is the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have made themselves the servants of the saints,

bbe@1Corinthians:16:20 @All the brothers send their love to you. Give one another a holy kiss.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:1 @Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the purpose of God, and Timothy the brother, to the church of God which is in Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia:

bbe@2Corinthians:1:2 @Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:3 @Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort;

bbe@2Corinthians:1:4 @Who gives us comfort in all our troubles, so that we may be able to give comfort to others who are in trouble, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:11 @You at the same time helping together by your prayer for us; so that for what has been given to us through a number of persons, praise may go up to God for us from all of them.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:13 @For in our letters we say no other things to you, but those which you are reading, and to which you give agreement, and, it is my hope, will go on doing so to the end:

bbe@2Corinthians:1:16 @And by way of Corinth to go into Macedonia, and from there to come back again to you, so that you might send me on my way to Judaea.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:21 @Now he who makes our faith strong together with you, in Christ, and has given us of his grace, is God;

bbe@2Corinthians:2:7 @So that now, on the other hand, it is right for him to have forgiveness and comfort from you, for fear that his sorrow may be over-great.

bbe@2Corinthians:2:12 @Now when I came to Troas for the good news of Christ, and there was an open door for me in the Lord,

bbe@2Corinthians:2:13 @I had no rest in my spirit because Titus my brother was not there: so I went away from them, and came into Macedonia.

bbe@2Corinthians:2:16 @To the one it is a perfume of death to death; to the other a perfume of life to life. And who is enough for such things?

bbe@2Corinthians:3:17 @Now the Lord is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there the heart is free.

bbe@2Corinthians:4:10 @In our bodies there is ever the mark of the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our bodies

bbe@2Corinthians:6:1 @We then, working together with God, make our request to you not to take the grace of God to no purpose.

bbe@2Corinthians:6:10 @As full of sorrow, but ever glad; as poor, but giving wealth to others; as having nothing, but still having all things.

bbe@2Corinthians:6:14 @Do not keep company with those who have not faith: for what is there in common between righteousness and evil, or between light and dark?

bbe@2Corinthians:6:15 @And what agreement is there between Christ and the Evil One? or what part has one who has faith with one who has not?

bbe@2Corinthians:6:18 @And will be a Father to you; and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord, the Ruler of all.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:1 @Because God, then, will give us such rewards, dear brothers, let us make ourselves clean from all evil of flesh and spirit, and become completely holy in the fear of God.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:3 @It is not with the purpose of judging you that I say this: for I have said before that you are in our hearts for life and death together.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:5 @For even when we had come into Macedonia our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; there were fightings outside and fears inside.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:10 @For the sorrow which God gives is the cause of salvation through a change of heart, in which there is no reason for grief: but the sorrow of the world is a cause of death.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:1 @And now we give you news, brothers, about the grace of God which has been given to the churches of Macedonia;

bbe@2Corinthians:8:2 @How while they were undergoing every sort of trouble, and were in the greatest need, they took all the greater joy in being able to give freely to the needs of others.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:5 @And going even farther than our hope, they first gave themselves to the Lord and to us after the purpose of God.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:8 @I am not giving you an order, but using the ready mind of others as a test of the quality of your love.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:12 @For if there is a ready mind, a man will have God's approval in the measure of what he has, and not of what he has not.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:13 @And I am not saying this so that others may get off free, while the weight comes on you:

bbe@2Corinthians:8:18 @And with him we have sent a brother whose praise in the good news has gone through all the churches;

bbe@2Corinthians:8:22 @And we have sent with them our brother, whose ready spirit has been made clear to us at times and in ways without number, but it is now all the more so because of the certain faith which he has in you.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:23 @If any question comes up about Titus, he is my brother-worker, working with me for you; or about the others, they are the representatives of the churches to the glory of Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:9:1 @But there is no need for me to say anything in my letter about the giving to the saints:

bbe@2Corinthians:9:3 @But I have sent the brothers, so that the good things we said about you may be seen to be true, and that, as I said, you may be ready:

bbe@2Corinthians:9:5 @So it seemed to me wise for the brothers to go before, and see that the amount which you had undertaken to give was ready, so that it might be a cause for praise, and not as if we were making profit out of you.

bbe@2Corinthians:10:15 @Not taking credit to ourselves for what is not our business, that is, for the work of others; but having hope that, with the growth of your faith, we may get the credit for an increase which is the effect of our work,

bbe@2Corinthians:10:16 @So that we may be able to go on and take the good news to countries still farther away than you are, and not take credit for another man's work in making things ready to our hand.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:4 @For if anyone comes preaching another Jesus from the one whose preachers we are, or if you have got a different spirit, or a different sort of good news from those which came to you, how well you put up with these things.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:8 @I took money from other churches as payment for my work, so that I might be your servant;

bbe@2Corinthians:11:9 @And when I was present with you, and was in need, I let no man be responsible for me; for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, gave me whatever was needed; and in everything I kept myself from being a trouble to you, and I will go on doing so.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:18 @Seeing that there are those who take credit to themselves after the flesh, I will do the same.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:26 @In frequent travels, in dangers on rivers, in dangers from outlaws, in dangers from my countrymen, in dangers from the Gentiles, in dangers in the town, in dangers in the waste land, in dangers at sea, in dangers among false brothers;

bbe@2Corinthians:11:28 @In addition to all the other things, there is that which comes on me every day, the care of all the churches.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:31 @The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom be praise for ever, is witness that the things which I say are true.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:7 @And because the revelations were so very great, in order that I might not be overmuch lifted up, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, one sent from Satan to give me pain.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:13 @For what is there in which you were made less than the other churches, but in the one thing that I was not a trouble to you? Let me have forgiveness for this wrong

bbe@2Corinthians:12:14 @This is now the third time that I am ready to come to you; and I will not be a trouble to you: my desire is for you, not for your property: for it is not the children's business to make store for their fathers, but the fathers for the children.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:18 @I gave orders to Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus make any profit out of you? were we not guided by the same Spirit, in the same ways?

bbe@2Corinthians:12:19 @It may seem to you that all this time we have been attempting to put ourselves in the right; but we are saying these things before God in Christ. For all things, dear brothers, are for your profit.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:20 @For I have a fear that, when I come, you may not be answering to my desire, and that I may not be answering to yours; that there may be fighting, hate, angry feeling, divisions, evil talk about others, secrets, thoughts of pride, outbursts against authority;

bbe@2Corinthians:13:2 @I said before, and still say it before I come, as being present for the second time, though I am still away from you, to those who have done wrong before, and to all the others, that if I come again I will not have pity;

bbe@2Corinthians:13:10 @For this cause I am writing these things while I am away, so that there may be need for me, when I am present, to make use of sharp measures, by the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for destruction.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:11 @Let this be my last word, brothers; be glad; be complete; be comforted; be of the same mind; be at peace with one another: and the God of love and peace will be with you.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:12 @Give one another a holy kiss.

bbe@Galatians:1:1 @Paul, an Apostle (not from men, and not through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who made him come back from the dead),

bbe@Galatians:1:2 @And all the brothers who are with me, to the churches of Galatia:

bbe@Galatians:1:3 @Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

bbe@Galatians:1:4 @Who gave himself for our sins, so that he might make us free from this present evil world, after the purpose of our God and Father:

bbe@Galatians:1:7 @Which is not another sort: only there are some who give you trouble, desiring to make changes in the good news of Christ.

bbe@Galatians:1:8 @But even if we, or an angel from heaven, were to be a preacher to you of good news other than that which we have given you, let there be a curse on him.

bbe@Galatians:1:9 @As we have said before, so say I now again, If any man is a preacher to you of any good news other than that which has been given to you, let there be a curse on him.

bbe@Galatians:1:11 @Because I say to you, my brothers, that the good news of which I was the preacher is not man's.

bbe@Galatians:1:14 @And I went farther in the Jews' religion than a number of my generation among my countrymen, having a more burning interest in the beliefs handed down from my fathers.

bbe@Galatians:1:15 @But when it was the good pleasure of God, by whom I was marked out even from my mother's body, through his grace,

bbe@Galatians:1:18 @Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Cephas, and was there with him fifteen days.

bbe@Galatians:1:19 @But of the other Apostles I saw only James, the Lord's brother.

bbe@Galatians:2:4 @And that because of the false brothers let in secretly, who came searching out our free condition which we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might make servants of us;

bbe@Galatians:3:15 @Brothers, as men would say, even a man's agreement, when it has been made certain, may not be put on one side, or have additions made to it.

bbe@Galatians:3:18 @Because if the heritage is by the law, it is no longer dependent on the word of God; but God gave it to Abraham by his word.

bbe@Galatians:3:21 @Is the law then against the words of God? in no way; because if there had been a law which was able to give life, truly righteousness would have been by the law.

bbe@Galatians:3:28 @There is no Jew or Greek, servant or free, male or female: because you are all one in Jesus Christ.

bbe@Galatians:3:29 @And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and yours is the heritage by the right of God's undertaking given to Abraham.

bbe@Galatians:4:2 @But is under keepers and managers till the time fixed by the father.

bbe@Galatians:4:6 @And because you are sons, God has sent out the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, saying, Abba, Father.

bbe@Galatians:4:7 @So that you are no longer a servant, but a son; and if a son, then the heritage of God is yours.

bbe@Galatians:4:12 @My desire for you, brothers, is that you may be as I am, because I am as you are. You have done me no wrong;

bbe@Galatians:4:15 @Where then is that happy condition of yours? because I give you witness, that, if possible, you would have taken out your eyes and given them to me.

bbe@Galatians:4:25 @Now this Hagar is the mountain Sinai in Arabia, and is the image of the Jerusalem which now is: which is a servant with her children.

bbe@Galatians:4:26 @But the Jerusalem on high is free, which is our mother.

bbe@Galatians:4:27 @For it is in the Writings, You who have never given birth, be glad; give cries of joy, you who have had no birth-pains; for the children of her who has been given up by her husband are more than those of the woman who has a husband.

bbe@Galatians:4:28 @Now we, brothers, as Isaac was, are the children of the undertaking of God.

bbe@Galatians:4:30 @What then do the Writings say? Send away the servant-woman and her son; for the son of the servant-woman will not have a part in the heritage with the son of the free woman.

bbe@Galatians:4:31 @So, brothers, we are not children of the servant-woman, but of the free woman.

bbe@Galatians:5:10 @I am certain about you in the Lord, that you will be of no other mind; but he who is troubling you will have his punishment, whoever he is.

bbe@Galatians:5:11 @But I, brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still attacked? then has the shame of the cross been taken away.

bbe@Galatians:5:13 @Because you, brothers, were marked out to be free; only do not make use of your free condition to give the flesh its chance, but through love be servants one to another.

bbe@Galatians:5:15 @But if you are given to fighting with one another, take care that you are not the cause of destruction one to another.

bbe@Galatians:5:17 @For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; because these are opposite the one to the other; so that you may not do the things which you have a mind to do.

bbe@Galatians:5:20 @Worship of images, use of strange powers, hates, fighting, desire for what another has, angry feelings, attempts to get the better of others, divisions, false teachings,

bbe@Galatians:5:23 @Gentle behaviour, control over desires: against such there is no law.

bbe@Galatians:5:26 @Let us not be full of self-glory, making one another angry, having envy of one another.

bbe@Galatians:6:1 @Brothers, if a man is taken in any wrongdoing, you who are of the Spirit will put such a one right in a spirit of love; keeping watch on yourself, for fear that you yourself may be tested.

bbe@Galatians:6:2 @Take on yourselves one another's troubles, and so keep the law of Christ.

bbe@Galatians:6:6 @But let him who gets teaching in the word give a part in all good things to his teacher.

bbe@Galatians:6:18 @The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. So be it.

bbe@Ephesians:1:2 @Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Ephesians:1:3 @Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us every blessing of the Spirit in the heavens in Christ:

bbe@Ephesians:1:11 @In whom we have a heritage, being marked out from the first in his purpose who does all things in agreement with his designs;

bbe@Ephesians:1:14 @Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory.

bbe@Ephesians:1:17 @That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;

bbe@Ephesians:1:18 @And that having the eyes of your heart full of light, you may have knowledge of what is the hope of his purpose, what is the wealth of the glory of his heritage in the saints,

bbe@Ephesians:2:5 @Even when we were dead through our sins, gave us life together with Christ (by grace you have salvation),

bbe@Ephesians:2:18 @Because through him the two of us are able to come near in one Spirit to the Father.

bbe@Ephesians:2:21 @In whom all the building, rightly joined together, comes to be a holy house of God in the Lord;

bbe@Ephesians:2:22 @In whom you, with the rest, are united together as a living-place of God in the Spirit.

bbe@Ephesians:3:5 @Which in other generations was not given to the sons of men, but the revelation of it has now been made to his holy Apostles and prophets in the Spirit;

bbe@Ephesians:3:6 @Which is that the Gentiles have a part in the heritage, and in the same body, and in the same hope in Christ through the good news,

bbe@Ephesians:3:7 @Of which I was made a preacher, through that grace of God which was given to me in the measure of the working of his power.

bbe@Ephesians:3:14 @For this cause I go down on my knees before the Father,

bbe@Ephesians:4:2 @With all gentle and quiet behaviour, taking whatever comes, putting up with one another in love;

bbe@Ephesians:4:4 @There is one body and one Spirit, even as you have been marked out by God in the one hope of his purpose for you;

bbe@Ephesians:4:6 @One God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all.

bbe@Ephesians:4:11 @And he gave some as Apostles, and some, prophets; and some, preachers of the good news; and some to give care and teaching;

bbe@Ephesians:4:16 @Through whom all the body, being rightly formed and united together, by the full working of every part, is increased to the building up of itself in love.

bbe@Ephesians:4:25 @And so, putting away false words, let everyone say what is true to his neighbour: for we are parts one of another.

bbe@Ephesians:4:32 @And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.

bbe@Ephesians:5:3 @But evil acts of the flesh and all unclean things, or desire for others' property, let it not even be named among you, as is right for saints;

bbe@Ephesians:5:4 @And let there be no low behaviour, or foolish talk, or words said in sport, which are not right, but in place of them the giving of praise.

bbe@Ephesians:5:5 @Being certain of this, that no man who gives way to the passions of the flesh, no unclean person, or one who has desire for the property of others, or who gives worship to images, has any heritage in the kingdom of Christ and God.

bbe@Ephesians:5:19 @Joining with one another in holy songs of praise and of the Spirit, using your voice in songs and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

bbe@Ephesians:5:20 @Giving praise at all times for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father;

bbe@Ephesians:5:21 @Letting yourselves be ruled by one another in the fear of Christ.

bbe@Ephesians:5:31 @For this cause will a man go away from his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.

bbe@Ephesians:5:33 @But do you, everyone, have love for his wife, even as for himself; and let the wife see that she has respect for her husband.

bbe@Ephesians:6:1 @Children, do what is ordered by your fathers and mothers in the Lord: for this is right.

bbe@Ephesians:6:2 @Give honour to your father and mother (which is the first rule having a reward),

bbe@Ephesians:6:4 @And, you fathers, do not make your children angry: but give them training in the teaching and fear of the Lord.

bbe@Ephesians:6:21 @But so that you may have knowledge of my business, and how I am, Tychicus, the well-loved brother and tested servant in the Lord, will give you news of all things:

bbe@Ephesians:6:23 @Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Philippians:1:2 @Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Philippians:1:12 @Now it is my purpose to make clear to you, brothers, that the cause of the good news has been helped by my experiences;

bbe@Philippians:1:14 @And most of the brothers in the Lord, taking heart because of my chains, are all the stronger to give the word of God without fear.

bbe@Philippians:1:15 @Though some are preaching Christ out of envy and competition, others do it out of a good heart:

bbe@Philippians:1:27 @Only let your behaviour do credit to the good news of Christ, so that if I come and see you or if I am away from you, I may have news of you that you are strong in one spirit, working together with one soul for the faith of the good news;

bbe@Philippians:2:1 @If then there is any comfort in Christ, any help given by love, any uniting of hearts in the Spirit, any loving mercies and pity,

bbe@Philippians:2:3 @Doing nothing through envy or through pride, but with low thoughts of self let everyone take others to be better than himself;

bbe@Philippians:2:4 @Not looking everyone to his private good, but keeping in mind the things of others.

bbe@Philippians:2:11 @And that every tongue may give witness that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

bbe@Philippians:2:22 @But his quality is clear to you; how, as a child is to its father, so he was a help to me in the work of the good news.

bbe@Philippians:2:25 @But it seemed to me necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, who has taken part with me in the work and in the fight, and your servant, sent by you for help in my need;

bbe@Philippians:3:1 @For the rest, my brothers, be glad in the Lord. Writing the same things to you is no trouble to me, and for you it is safe.

bbe@Philippians:3:4 @Even though I myself might have faith in the flesh: if any other man has reason to have faith in the flesh, I have more:

bbe@Philippians:3:13 @Brothers, it is clear to me that I have not come to that knowledge; but one thing I do, letting go those things which are past, and stretching out to the things which are before,

bbe@Philippians:3:17 @Brothers, take me as your example, and take note of those who are walking after the example we have given.

bbe@Philippians:3:18 @For there are those, of whom I have given you word before, and do so now with sorrow, who are haters of the cross of Christ;

bbe@Philippians:3:20 @For our country is in heaven; from where the Saviour for whom we are waiting will come, even the Lord Jesus Christ:

bbe@Philippians:4:1 @So my brothers, well loved and very dear to me, my joy and crown, be strong in the Lord, my loved ones.

bbe@Philippians:4:3 @And I make request to you, true helper in my work, to see to the needs of those women who took part with me in the good news, with Clement and the rest of my brother-workers whose names are in the book of life.

bbe@Philippians:4:8 @For the rest, my brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things have honour, whatever things are upright, whatever things are holy, whatever things are beautiful, whatever things are of value, if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, give thought to these things.

bbe@Philippians:4:11 @But I will not say anything about my needs, for I am able, wherever I am, to be dependent on myself.

bbe@Philippians:4:12 @It is the same to me if I am looked down on or honoured; everywhere and in all things I have the secret of how to be full and how to go without food; how to have wealth and how to be in need.

bbe@Philippians:4:20 @Now to God our Father be glory for ever and ever. So be it.

bbe@Philippians:4:21 @Give words of love to every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their love.

bbe@Colossians:1:1 @Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, by the purpose of God, and Timothy our brother,

bbe@Colossians:1:2 @To the saints and true brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

bbe@Colossians:1:3 @We give praise to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, making prayer for you at all times,

bbe@Colossians:1:12 @Giving praise to the Father who has given us a part in the heritage of the saints in light;

bbe@Colossians:2:2 @So that their hearts may be comforted, and that being joined together in love, they may come to the full wealth of the certain knowledge of the secret of God, even Christ,

bbe@Colossians:2:7 @Rooted and based together in him, strong in the faith which the teaching gave you, giving praise to God at all times.

bbe@Colossians:2:13 @And you, being dead through your sins and the evil condition of your flesh, to you, I say, he gave life together with him, and forgiveness of all our sins;

bbe@Colossians:2:19 @And not joined to the Head, from whom all the body, being given strength and kept together through its joins and bands, has its growth with the increase of God.

bbe@Colossians:2:21 @Which say there may be no touching, tasting, or taking in your hands,

bbe@Colossians:3:1 @If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

bbe@Colossians:3:2 @Keep your mind on the higher things, not on the things of earth.

bbe@Colossians:3:9 @Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings,

bbe@Colossians:3:11 @Where there is no Greek or Jew, no one with circumcision or without circumcision, no division between nations, no servant or free man: but Christ is all and in all.

bbe@Colossians:3:13 @Being gentle to one another and having forgiveness for one another, if anyone has done wrong to his brother, even as the Lord had forgiveness for you:

bbe@Colossians:3:14 @And more than all, have love; the only way in which you may be completely joined together.

bbe@Colossians:3:16 @Let the word of Christ be in you in all wealth of wisdom; teaching and helping one another with songs of praise and holy words, making melody to God with grace in your hearts.

bbe@Colossians:3:17 @And whatever you do, in word or in act, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving praise to God the Father through him.

bbe@Colossians:3:20 @Children, do the orders of your fathers and mothers in all things, for this is pleasing to the Lord.

bbe@Colossians:3:21 @Fathers, do not be hard on your children, so that their spirit may not be broken.

bbe@Colossians:3:24 @Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ.

bbe@Colossians:4:7 @Tychicus will give you news of all my business: he is a dear brother and true servant and helper in the word;

bbe@Colossians:4:9 @And with him I have sent Onesimus, the true and well-loved brother, who is one of you. They will give you word of everything which is taking place here.

bbe@Colossians:4:10 @Aristarchus, my brother-prisoner, sends his love to you, and Mark, a relation of Barnabas (about whom you have been given orders: if he comes to you, be kind to him),

bbe@Colossians:4:11 @And Jesus, whose other name is Justus; these are of the circumcision: they are my only brother-workers for the kingdom of God, who have been a comfort to me.

bbe@Colossians:4:15 @Give my love to the brothers in Laodicea and to Nymphas and the church in their house.

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:1 @Paul and Silvanus and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:3 @Having ever in mind your work of faith and acts of love and the strength of your hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:4 @Being conscious, my brothers, dear to God, that you have been marked out by God's purpose;

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:1 @For you yourselves, brothers, are conscious that our coming among you was not without effect:

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:6 @Or looking for glory from men, from you or from others, when we might have made ourselves a care to you as Apostles of Christ.

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:7 @But we were gentle among you, like a woman caring for her little ones:

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:9 @For you have the memory, my brothers, of our trouble and care; how, working night and day, so that we might not be a trouble to any of you, we gave you the good news of God.

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:11 @Even as you saw how, like a father with his children, we were teaching and comforting you all, and giving witness,

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:14 @For you, my brothers, took as your examples the churches of God which are in Judaea in Christ Jesus; because you underwent the same things from your countrymen as they did from the Jews;

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:17 @But we, my brothers, being away from you for a short time, in body but not in heart, had all the more desire to see your face;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:2 @We sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the good news of Christ, to give you strength and comfort in your faith;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:7 @For this cause, brothers, in all our trouble and grief we were comforted about you because of your faith;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:11 @Now may our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus make a way for us to come to you;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:12 @And the Lord give you increase of love in fullest measure to one another and to all men, even as our love to you;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:13 @So that your hearts may be strong and free from all sin before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:6 @And that no man may make attempts to get the better of his brother in business: for the Lord is the judge in all these things, as we said to you before and gave witness.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:9 @But about loving the brothers, there is no need for me to say anything to you in this letter: for you have the teaching of God that love for one another is right and necessary;

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:10 @And, truly, you are lovers of all the brothers in Macedonia; but it is our desire that your love may be increased still more;

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:13 @But it is our desire, brothers, that you may be certain about those who are sleeping; so that you may have no need for sorrow, as others have who are without hope.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:17 @Then we who are still living will be taken up together with them into the clouds to see the Lord in the air: and so will we be for ever with the Lord.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:18 @So then, give comfort to one another with these words.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:1 @But about the times and their order, my brothers, there is no need for me to say anything to you.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:3 @When they say, There is peace and no danger, then sudden destruction will come on them, as birth-pains on a woman with child; and they will not be able to get away from it.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:4 @But you, my brothers, are not in the dark, for that day to overtake you like a thief:

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:6 @So then, let us not take our rest as the others do, but let us be self-controlled and awake.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:11 @So then, go on comforting and building up one another, as you have been doing.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:12 @But we make this request to you, my brothers: give attention to those who are working among you, who are over you in the Lord to keep order among you;

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:15 @Let no one give evil for evil; but ever go after what is good, for one another and for all.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:25 @Brothers, keep us in mind in your prayers.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:26 @Give all the brothers a holy kiss.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:27 @I give orders in the name of the Lord that all the brothers are to be present at the reading of this letter.

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:1 @Paul and Silvanus and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:2 @Grace to you and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:3 @It is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, because of the great increase of your faith, and the wealth of your love for one another;

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:1 @Now as to the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, and our meeting with him, it is our desire, my brothers,

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:3 @Give no belief to false words: because there will first be a falling away from the faith, and the revelation of the man of sin, the son of destruction,

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:7 @For the secret of evil is even now at work: but there is one who is keeping back the evil till he is taken out of the way.

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:13 @But it is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, loved by the Lord, because it was the purpose of God from the first that you might have salvation, being made holy by the Spirit and by faith in what is true:

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:14 @And in this purpose he gave you a part through the good news of which we were the preachers, even that you might have part in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:15 @So then, brothers, be strong in purpose, and keep the teaching which has been given to you by word or by letter from us.

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:16 @Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father who had love for us and has given us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:1 @For the rest, my brothers, let there be prayer for us that the word of the Lord may go forward with increasing glory, even as it does with you;

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:6 @Now we give you orders, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from all those whose behaviour is not well ordered and in harmony with the teaching which they had from us.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:11 @For it has come to our ears that there are some among you whose behaviour is uncontrolled, who do no work at all, but are over-interested in the business of others.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:13 @And you, my brothers, do not get tired of well-doing.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:15 @Have no feeling of hate for him, but take him in hand seriously as a brother.

bbe@1Timothy:1:2 @To Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

bbe@1Timothy:1:7 @Desiring to be teachers of the law, though they have no knowledge of what they say or of the statements which they make so certainly.

bbe@1Timothy:1:9 @With the knowledge that the law is made, not for the upright man, but for those who have no respect for law and order, for evil men and sinners, for the unholy and those who have no religion, for those who put their fathers or mothers to death, for takers of life,

bbe@1Timothy:1:10 @For those who go after loose women, for those with unnatural desires, for those who take men prisoners, who make false statements and false oaths, and those who do any other things against the right teaching,

bbe@1Timothy:2:5 @For there is one God and one peacemaker between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

bbe@1Timothy:2:7 @And of this I became a preacher and an Apostle (what I say is true, not false,) and a teacher of the Gentiles in the true faith.

bbe@1Timothy:2:12 @In my opinion it is right for a woman not to be a teacher, or to have rule over a man, but to be quiet.

bbe@1Timothy:3:2 @The Bishop, then, is to be a man of good name, the husband of one wife, self-controlled, serious-minded, having respect for order, opening his house freely to guests, a ready teacher;

bbe@1Timothy:3:10 @And let these first be put to the test; then let them become Deacons if there is nothing against them

bbe@1Timothy:3:11 @Women are to be serious in behaviour, saying no evil of others, controlling themselves, true in all things.

bbe@1Timothy:4:6 @If you keep these things before the minds of the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, trained in the words of the faith and of the right teaching which has been your guide:

bbe@1Timothy:5:1 @Do not say sharp words to one who has authority in the church, but let your talk be as to a father, and to the younger men as to brothers:

bbe@1Timothy:5:2 @To the older women as to mothers, to the younger as to sisters, with a clean heart.

bbe@1Timothy:5:4 @But if any widow has children or children's children, let these see that it is right to take care of their family and their fathers and mothers: for this is pleasing in the eyes of God.

bbe@1Timothy:5:5 @Now she who is truly a widow and without family puts her hope in God, giving herself to prayer day and night.

bbe@1Timothy:5:6 @But she who gives herself to pleasure is dead while she is living.

bbe@1Timothy:5:10 @And if witness is given of her good works; if she has had the care of children, if she has been kind to travellers, washing the feet of the saints, helping those who are in trouble, giving herself to good works.

bbe@1Timothy:5:13 @And they get into the way of doing no work, going about from house to house; and not only doing no work, but talking foolishly, being over-interested in the business of others, saying things which they have no right to say.

bbe@1Timothy:5:16 @If any woman of the faith has relations who are widows, let her give them help, so that the care of them does not come on the church, and so it may give help to those who are truly widowed.

bbe@1Timothy:5:21 @I give you orders before God and Christ Jesus and the angels of God's selection, to keep these orders without giving thought to one side more than another.

bbe@1Timothy:5:22 @Do not put hands on any man without thought, and have no part in other men's sins: keep yourself clean.

bbe@1Timothy:5:24 @The sins of some men are clearly seen, going before them to be judged; but with others, their sins go after them.

bbe@1Timothy:5:25 @In the same way, there are good works which are clearly seen; and those which are not so, may not be kept secret.

bbe@1Timothy:6:2 @And let those whose masters are of the faith have respect for them because they are brothers, working for them the more readily, because those who take part in the good work are of the faith and are dear. Give orders and teaching about these things.

bbe@1Timothy:6:18 @And to do good, having wealth in good works, being quick to give, taking part with one another;

bbe@2Timothy:1:2 @To Timothy, my well-loved child: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

bbe@2Timothy:1:3 @I give praise to God, whose servant I have been, with a heart free from sin, from the time of my fathers, because in my prayers at all times the thought of you is with me, night and day

bbe@2Timothy:1:5 @Having in mind your true faith, which first was in your mother's mother Lois, and in your mother Eunice, and, I am certain, is now in you.

bbe@2Timothy:1:11 @Of which I was made a preacher and an Apostle and a teacher;

bbe@2Timothy:1:15 @You have had news that all those in Asia went away from me; among whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes:

bbe@2Timothy:1:17 @But when he was in Rome, he went in search of me everywhere, and came to me

bbe@2Timothy:2:2 @And the things which I have said to you before a number of witnesses, give to those of the faith, so that they may be teachers of others.

bbe@2Timothy:2:16 @But take no part in wrong and foolish talk, for those who do so will go farther into evil,

bbe@2Timothy:2:20 @Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but others of wood and earth, and some which are honoured and some without honour.

bbe@2Timothy:3:2 @For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, uplifted in pride, given to bitter words, going against the authority of their fathers, never giving praise, having no religion,

bbe@2Timothy:3:3 @Without natural love, bitter haters, saying evil of others, violent and uncontrolled, hating all good,

bbe@2Timothy:3:9 @But they will go no farther: for their foolish behaviour will be clear to all men, as theirs was in the end.

bbe@2Timothy:3:14 @But see that you keep to the teaching you have been given and the things of which you are certain, conscious of who has been your teacher;

bbe@2Timothy:4:3 @For the time will come when they will not take the true teaching; but, moved by their desires, they will get for themselves a great number of teachers for the pleasure of hearing them;

bbe@2Timothy:4:21 @Do your best to come before the winter. Eubulus sends you his love, and Pudens and Linus and Claudia, and all the brothers.

bbe@Titus:1:3 @Who, in his time, made clear his word in the good news, of which, by the order of God our Saviour, I became a preacher;

bbe@Titus:1:4 @To Titus, my true child in our common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.

bbe@Titus:1:5 @I did not take you with me when I went away from Crete, so that you might do what was necessary to put things in order there, placing men in authority over the churches in every town, as I said to you;

bbe@Titus:1:10 @For there are men who are not ruled by law; foolish talkers, false teachers, specially those of the circumcision,

bbe@Titus:2:3 @That old women are to be self-respecting in behaviour, not saying evil of others, not given to taking much wine, teachers of that which is good,

bbe@Titus:3:2 @To say no evil of any man, not to be fighters, to give way to others, to be gentle in behaviour to all men.

bbe@Titus:3:3 @For in the past we were foolish, hard in heart, turned from the true way, servants of evil desires and pleasures, living in bad feeling and envy, hated and hating one another.

bbe@Titus:3:7 @So that, having been given righteousness through grace, we might have a part in the heritage, the hope of eternal life.

bbe@Titus:3:12 @When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicopolis: for it is my purpose to be there for the winter.

bbe@Philemon:1:1 @Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our dear helper in the faith,

bbe@Philemon:1:2 @And to Apphia, our sister, and to Archippus, our brother in God's army, and to the church in your house:

bbe@Philemon:1:3 @Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Philemon:1:7 @For I had great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been made strong again through you, brother.

bbe@Philemon:1:16 @No longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother, very dear to me specially, but much more to you, in the flesh as well as in the Lord.

bbe@Philemon:1:17 @If then you take me to be your friend and brother, take him in as myself.

bbe@Philemon:1:20 @So brother, let me have joy of you in the Lord: give new life to my heart in Christ.

bbe@Philemon:1:23 @Epaphras, my brother-prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you his love;

bbe@Philemon:1:24 @And so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my brother-workers.

bbe@Hebrews:1:1 @In times past the word of God came to our fathers through the prophets, in different parts and in different ways;

bbe@Hebrews:1:2 @But now, at the end of these days, it has come to us through his Son, to whom he has given all things for a heritage, and through whom he made the order of the generations;

bbe@Hebrews:1:4 @Having become by so much better than the angels, as the name which is his heritage is more noble than theirs.

bbe@Hebrews:1:5 @To which of the angels did God say at any time, You are my Son, this day I have given you being? or, I will be his Father, and he will be my Son?

bbe@Hebrews:1:14 @Are they not all helping spirits, who are sent out as servants to those whose heritage will be salvation?

bbe@Hebrews:2:1 @For this reason there is the more need for us to give attention to the things which have come to our ears, for fear that by chance we might be slipping away.

bbe@Hebrews:2:3 @What will come on us, if we do not give our minds to such a great salvation? a salvation of which our fathers first had knowledge through the words of the Lord, and which was made certain to us by those to whom his words came;

bbe@Hebrews:2:11 @For he who makes holy and those who are made holy are all of one family; and for this reason it is no shame for him to give them the name of brothers,

bbe@Hebrews:2:12 @Saying, I will give the knowledge of your name to my brothers, I will make a song of praise to you before the church.

bbe@Hebrews:2:13 @And again he says, I will put my faith in him. And again, See, I am here, and the children which God has given to me.

bbe@Hebrews:2:17 @Because of this it was necessary for him to be made like his brothers in every way, so that he might be a high priest full of mercy and keeping faith in everything to do with God, making offerings for the sins of the people.

bbe@Hebrews:2:18 @For having been put to the test himself, he is able to give help to others when they are tested.

bbe@Hebrews:3:1 @For this reason, holy brothers, marked out to have a part in heaven, give thought to Jesus the representative and high priest of our faith;

bbe@Hebrews:3:9 @When your fathers put me to the test, and saw my works for forty years.

bbe@Hebrews:3:12 @My brothers, take care that there is not by chance in any one of you an evil heart without belief, turning away from the living God:

bbe@Hebrews:3:13 @But give comfort to one another every day as long as it is still Today; so that no one among you may be made hard by the deceit of sin:

bbe@Hebrews:4:8 @For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have said anything about another day.

bbe@Hebrews:4:9 @So that there is still a Sabbath-keeping for the people of God.

bbe@Hebrews:4:13 @And there is nothing made which is not completely clear to him; there is nothing covered, but all things are open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

bbe@Hebrews:5:6 @As he says in another place, You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

bbe@Hebrews:5:12 @And though by this time it would be right for you to be teachers, you still have need of someone to give you teaching about the first simple rules of God's revelation; you have become like babies who have need of milk, and not of solid food

bbe@Hebrews:6:12 @So that you may not be slow in heart, but may take as your example those to whom God has given their heritage, because of their faith and their long waiting.

bbe@Hebrews:6:13 @For when God made his oath to Abraham, because there was no greater oath, he made it by himself,

bbe@Hebrews:6:17 @So that when it was God's desire to make it specially clear to those who by his word were to have the heritage, that his purpose was fixed, he made it more certain with an oath;

bbe@Hebrews:6:20 @Where Jesus has gone before us, as a high priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

bbe@Hebrews:7:3 @Being without father or mother, or family, having no birth or end to his life, being made like the Son of God, is a priest for ever.

bbe@Hebrews:7:4 @Now see how great this man was, to whom our father Abraham gave a tenth part of what he had got in the fight.

bbe@Hebrews:7:5 @And it is true that by the law, those of the sons of Levi who have the position of priests may take a tenth part of the people's goods; that is to say, they take it from their brothers though these are the sons of Abraham.

bbe@Hebrews:7:7 @But there is no doubt that the less gets his blessing from the greater.

bbe@Hebrews:7:10 @Because he was still in his father's body when Melchizedek came to him.

bbe@Hebrews:7:11 @Now if it was possible for things to be made complete through the priests of the house of Levi (for the law was given to the people in connection with them), what need was there for another priest who was of the order of Melchizedek and not of the order of Aaron?

bbe@Hebrews:7:13 @For he of whom these things are said comes of another tribe, of which no man has ever made offerings at the altar.

bbe@Hebrews:7:19 @(Because the law made nothing complete), and in its place there is a better hope, through which we come near to God.

bbe@Hebrews:7:23 @And it is true that there have been a great number of those priests, because death does not let them go on for ever;

bbe@Hebrews:7:26 @It was right for us to have such a high priest, one who is holy and without evil, doing no wrong, having no part with sinners, and made higher than the heavens:

bbe@Hebrews:8:4 @If he had been on earth he would not have been a priest at all, because there are other priests who make the offerings ordered by the law;

bbe@Hebrews:8:6 @But now his position as priest is higher. because through him God has made a better agreement with man, based on the giving of better things.

bbe@Hebrews:8:7 @For if that first agreement had been as good as possible, there would have been no place for a second.

bbe@Hebrews:8:9 @Not like the agreement which I made with their fathers when I took them by the hand, to be their guide out of the land of Egypt; for they did not keep the agreement with me, and I gave them up, says the Lord.

bbe@Hebrews:8:11 @And there will be no need for every man to be teaching his brother, or his neighbour, saying, This is the knowledge of the Lord: for they will all have knowledge of me, great and small.

bbe@Hebrews:9:15 @And for this cause it is through him that a new agreement has come into being, so that after the errors under the first agreement had been taken away by his death, the word of God might have effect for those who were marked out for an eternal heritage.

bbe@Hebrews:9:16 @Because where there is a testament, there has to be the death of the man who made it.

bbe@Hebrews:9:22 @And by the law almost all things are made clean with blood, and without blood there is no forgiveness.

bbe@Hebrews:10:2 @For if this had been possible, would there not have been an end of those offerings, because the worshippers would have been made completely clean and would have been no longer conscious of sins?

bbe@Hebrews:10:3 @But year by year there is a memory of sins in those offerings.

bbe@Hebrews:10:13 @And has been waiting there from that time, till all who are against him are made a foot-rest for his feet.

bbe@Hebrews:10:18 @Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no more offering for sin.

bbe@Hebrews:10:19 @So then, my brothers, being able to go into the holy place without fear, because of the blood of Jesus,

bbe@Hebrews:10:24 @And let us be moving one another at all times to love and good works;

bbe@Hebrews:10:25 @Not giving up our meetings, as is the way of some, but keeping one another strong in faith; and all the more because you see the day coming near.

bbe@Hebrews:10:26 @For if we do evil on purpose after we have had the knowledge of what is true, there is no more offering for sins,

bbe@Hebrews:11:2 @For by it our fathers had God's approval.

bbe@Hebrews:11:7 @By faith Noah, being moved by the fear of God, made ready an ark for the salvation of his family, because God had given him news of things which were not seen at the time; and through it the world was judged by him, and he got for his heritage the righteousness which is by faith.

bbe@Hebrews:11:8 @By faith Abraham did as God said when he was ordered to go out into a place which was to be given to him as a heritage, and went out without knowledge of where he was going.

bbe@Hebrews:11:9 @By faith he was a wanderer in the land of the agreement, as in a strange land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who had a part with him in the same heritage:

bbe@Hebrews:11:11 @And by faith Sarah herself had power to give birth, when she was very old, because she had faith in him who gave his word;

bbe@Hebrews:11:13 @All these came to their end in faith, not having had the heritage; but having seen it with delight far away, they gave witness that they were wanderers and not of the earth.

bbe@Hebrews:11:23 @By faith Moses was kept secretly by his father and mother for three months after his birth, because they saw that he was a fair child; and they had no fear of the king's orders.

bbe@Hebrews:11:31 @By faith Rahab, the loose woman, was not put to death with those who had gone against God's orders, because she had taken into her house in peace those sent to see the land.

bbe@Hebrews:11:32 @What more am I to say? For there would not be time to give the stories of Gideon, Barak, Samson, and Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets:

bbe@Hebrews:11:35 @Women had their dead given back to them living; others let themselves be cruelly attacked, having no desire to go free, so that they might have a better life to come;

bbe@Hebrews:11:36 @And others were tested by being laughed at or by blows, and even with chains and prisons:

bbe@Hebrews:12:7 @It is for your training that you undergo these things; God is acting to you as a father does to his sons; for what son does not have punishment from his father?

bbe@Hebrews:12:9 @And again, if the fathers of our flesh gave us punishment and had our respect, how much more will we be under the authority of the Father of spirits, and have life?

bbe@Hebrews:12:16 @And that there may not be any evil liver, or any man without respect for God, like Esau, who let his birthright go for a plate of food.

bbe@Hebrews:12:17 @For you have knowledge that even long after, when he was desiring the blessing for his heritage, he was turned away, though he made his request frequently and with weeping; because the past might not be changed.

bbe@Hebrews:12:26 @Whose voice was the cause of the shaking of the earth; but now he has made an oath, saying, There will be still one more shaking, not only of the earth, but of heaven.

bbe@Hebrews:12:27 @And the words, Still one more, make it clear that there will be a taking away of those things which are shaking, as of things which are made, so that there may be only those things of which no shaking is possible.

bbe@Hebrews:13:1 @Go on loving your brothers in the faith.

bbe@Hebrews:13:14 @For here we have no fixed resting-place, but our search is for the one which is to come.

bbe@Hebrews:13:16 @But go on doing good and giving to others, because God is well-pleased with such offerings.

bbe@Hebrews:13:22 @But, brothers, take kindly the words which I have said for your profit; for I have not sent you a long letter.

bbe@Hebrews:13:23 @Our brother Timothy has been let out of prison; and if he comes here in a short time, he and I will come to you together.

bbe@James:1:2 @Let it be all joy to you, my brothers, when you undergo tests of every sort;

bbe@James:1:8 @For there is a division in his mind, and he is uncertain in all his ways.

bbe@James:1:9 @But let the brother of low position be glad that he is lifted up;

bbe@James:1:12 @There is a blessing on the man who undergoes testing; because, if he has God's approval, he will be given the crown of life, which the Lord has said he will give to those who have love for him.

bbe@James:1:16 @Do not be turned from the right way, dear brothers.

bbe@James:1:17 @Every good and true thing is given to us from heaven, coming from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change or any shade made by turning.

bbe@James:1:19 @You have knowledge of this, dear brothers. But let every man be quick in hearing, slow in words, slow to get angry;

bbe@James:1:21 @For this reason, putting away all dirty behaviour and the overweight of evil, take into your souls without pride the word which, being planted there, is able to give you salvation.

bbe@James:1:27 @The religion which is holy and free from evil in the eyes of our God and Father is this: to take care of children who have no fathers and of widows who are in trouble, and to keep oneself untouched by the world.

bbe@James:2:1 @My brothers, if you have the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory, do not take a man's position into account.

bbe@James:2:3 @And you do honour to the man in fair clothing and say, Come here and take this good place; and you say to the poor man, Take up your position there, or be seated at my feet;

bbe@James:2:4 @Is there not a division in your minds? have you not become judges with evil thoughts?

bbe@James:2:5 @Give ear, my dear brothers; are not those who are poor in the things of this world marked out by God to have faith as their wealth, and for their heritage the kingdom which he has said he will give to those who have love for him?

bbe@James:2:14 @What use is it, my brothers, for a man to say that he has faith, if he does nothing? will such a faith give him salvation?

bbe@James:2:15 @If a brother or a sister is without clothing and in need of the day's food,

bbe@James:2:16 @And one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warm and full of food; but you do not give them the things of which their bodies have need, what profit is there in this?

bbe@James:2:21 @Was not the righteousness of Abraham our father judged by his works, when he made an offering of Isaac his son on the altar?

bbe@James:2:25 @And in the same way, was not the righteousness of Rahab, the loose woman, judged by her works, when she took into her house those who were sent and let them go out by another way?

bbe@James:3:1 @Do not all be teachers, my brothers, because we teachers will be judged more hardly than others.

bbe@James:3:9 @With it we give praise to our Lord and Father; and with it we put a curse on men who are made in God's image.

bbe@James:3:12 @Is a fig-tree able to give us olives, my brothers, or do we get figs from a vine, or sweet water from the salt sea?

bbe@James:3:14 @But if you have bitter envy in your heart and the desire to get the better of others, have no pride in this, talking falsely against what is true.

bbe@James:3:16 @For where envy is, and the desire to get the better of others, there is no order, but every sort of evil-doing.

bbe@James:3:17 @But the wisdom which is from heaven is first holy, then gentle, readily giving way in argument, full of peace and mercy and good works, not doubting, not seeming other than it is.

bbe@James:4:11 @Do not say evil against one another, my brothers. He who says evil against his brother or makes himself his brother's judge, says evil against the law and is judging the law: and in judging the law you become, not a doer of the law but a judge.

bbe@James:4:12 @There is only one judge and law-giver, even he who has the power of salvation and of destruction; but who are you to be your neighbour's judge?

bbe@James:4:13 @How foolish it is to say, Today or tomorrow we will go into this town, and be there for a year and do business there and get wealth:

bbe@James:5:7 @Go on waiting calmly, my brothers, till the coming of the Lord, like the farmer waiting for the good fruit of the earth till the early and late rains have come.

bbe@James:5:9 @Say no hard things against one another, brothers, so that you will not be judged; see, the judge is waiting at the doors.

bbe@James:5:12 @But most of all, my brothers, do not take oaths, not by the heaven, or by the earth, or by any other thing: but let your Yes be Yes, and your No be No: so that you may not be judged

bbe@James:5:16 @So then, make a statement of your sins to one another, and say prayers for one another so that you may be made well. The prayer of a good man is full of power in its working.

bbe@James:5:17 @Elijah was a man of flesh and blood as we are, and he made a strong prayer that there might be no rain; and there was no rain on the earth for three years and six months.

bbe@James:5:18 @And he made another prayer, and the heaven sent down rain and the earth gave her fruit.

bbe@James:5:19 @My brothers, if one of you has gone out of the way of the true faith and another has made him see his error,

bbe@1Peter:1:3 @Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who through his great mercy has given us a new birth and a living hope by the coming again of Jesus Christ from the dead,

bbe@1Peter:1:4 @And a heritage fair, holy and for ever new, waiting in heaven for you,

bbe@1Peter:1:12 @And it was made clear to those prophets that they were God's servants not for themselves but for you, to give you word of the things which have now come to your ears from the preachers of the good news through the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; things which even angels have a desire to see.

bbe@1Peter:1:17 @And if you give the name of Father to him who, judging every man by his acts, has no respect for a man's position, then go in fear while you are on this earth:

bbe@1Peter:1:18 @Being conscious that you have been made free from that foolish way of life which was your heritage from your fathers, not through a payment of things like silver or gold which come to destruction,

bbe@1Peter:1:22 @And as you have made your souls clean, being ruled by what is true, and loving one another without deceit, see that your love is warm and from the heart:

bbe@1Peter:2:2 @Be full of desire for the true milk of the word, as babies at their mothers' breasts, so that you may go on to salvation;

bbe@1Peter:2:10 @In the past you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; then there was no mercy for you, but now mercy has been given to you.

bbe@1Peter:2:17 @Have respect for all, loving the brothers, fearing God, honouring the king.

bbe@1Peter:2:22 @Who did no evil, and there was no deceit in his mouth:

bbe@1Peter:3:7 @And you husbands, give thought to your way of life with your wives, giving honour to the woman who is the feebler vessel, but who has an equal part in the heritage of the grace of life; so that you may not be kept from prayer.

bbe@1Peter:3:8 @Last of all, see that you are all in agreement; feeling for one another, loving one another like brothers, full of pity, without pride:

bbe@1Peter:3:9 @Not giving back evil for evil, or curse for curse, but in place of cursing, blessing; because this is the purpose of God for you that you may have a heritage of blessing.

bbe@1Peter:4:8 @And most of all be warm in your love for one another; because in love there is forgiveness for sins without number:

bbe@1Peter:4:10 @Making distribution among one another of whatever has been given to you, like true servants of the unmeasured grace of God;

bbe@1Peter:4:11 @If anyone has anything to say, let it be as the words of God; if anyone has the desire to be the servant of others, let him do it in the strength which is given by God; so that in all things God may have the glory through Jesus Christ, whose are the glory and the power for ever.

bbe@1Peter:4:12 @Dear brothers, do not be surprised, as if it was something strange, if your faith is tested as by fire:

bbe@1Peter:4:15 @Let no one among you undergo punishment as a taker of life, or as a thief, or as an evil-doer, or as one who is over-interested in other men's business;

bbe@1Peter:5:3 @Not as lords over God's heritage, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

bbe@1Peter:5:9 @Do not give way to him but be strong in your faith, in the knowledge that your brothers who are in the world undergo the same troubles.

bbe@1Peter:5:12 @I have sent you this short letter by Silvanus, a true brother, in my opinion; comforting you and witnessing that this is the true grace of God; keep to it

bbe@1Peter:5:13 @She who is in Babylon, who has a part with you in the purpose of God, sends you her love; and so does my son Mark.

bbe@1Peter:5:14 @Give one another the kiss of love. Peace be to you all in Christ.

bbe@2Peter:1:7 @And love of the brothers to fear of God, and to love of the brothers, love itself.

bbe@2Peter:1:10 @For this reason, my brothers, take all the more care to make your selection and approval certain; for if you do these things you will never have a fall:

bbe@2Peter:1:16 @For when we gave you news of the power and the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, our teaching was not based on stories put together by art, but we were eye-witnesses of his glory.

bbe@2Peter:1:17 @For God the Father gave him honour and glory, when such a voice came to him out of the great glory, saying, This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.

bbe@2Peter:2:1 @But there were false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly put forward wrong teachings for your destruction, even turning away from the Lord who gave himself for them; whose destruction will come quickly, and they themselves will be the cause of it.

bbe@2Peter:2:5 @And did not have mercy on the world which then was, but only kept safe Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when he let loose the waters over the world of the evil-doers;

bbe@2Peter:2:12 @But these men, like beasts without reason, whose natural use is to be taken and put to death, crying out against things of which they have no knowledge, will undergo that same destruction which they are designing for others;

bbe@2Peter:2:13 @For the evil which overtakes them is the reward of their evil-doing: such men take their pleasure in the delights of the flesh even in the daytime; they are like the marks of a disease, like poisoned wounds among you, feasting together with you in joy;

bbe@2Peter:3:3 @Having first of all the knowledge that in the last days there will be men who, ruled by their evil desires, will make sport of holy things,

bbe@2Peter:3:4 @Saying, Where is the hope of his coming? From the death of the fathers till now everything has gone on as it was from the making of the world.

bbe@2Peter:3:5 @But in taking this view they put out of their minds the memory that in the old days there was a heaven, and an earth lifted out of the water and circled by water, by the word of God;

bbe@2Peter:3:15 @And be certain that the long waiting of the Lord is for salvation; even as our brother Paul has said in his letters to you, from the wisdom which was given to him;

bbe@1John:1:2 @(And the life was made clear to us, and we have seen it and are witnessing to it and giving you word of that eternal life which was with the Father and was seen by us);

bbe@1John:1:3 @We give you word of all we have seen and everything which has come to our ears, so that you may be united with us; and we are united with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ:

bbe@1John:1:5 @This is the word which came to us from him and which we give to you, that God is light and in him there is nothing dark.

bbe@1John:1:7 @But if we are walking in the light, as he is in the light, we are all united with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son makes us clean from all sin.

bbe@1John:1:8 @If we say that we have no sin, we are false to ourselves and there is nothing true in us.

bbe@1John:2:1 @My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may be without sin. And if any man is a sinner, we have a friend and helper with the Father, Jesus Christ, the upright one:

bbe@1John:2:4 @The man who says, I have knowledge of him, and does not keep his laws, is false, and there is nothing true in him:

bbe@1John:2:9 @He who says that he is in the light, and has hate in his heart for his brother, is still in the dark.

bbe@1John:2:10 @He who has love for his brother is in the light, and there is no cause of error in him.

bbe@1John:2:11 @But he who has hate for his brother is in the dark, walking in the dark with no knowledge of where he is going, unable to see because of the dark.

bbe@1John:2:13 @I am writing to you, fathers, because you have knowledge of him who was from the first. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the Evil One. I have sent a letter to you, children, because you have knowledge of the Father.

bbe@1John:2:14 @I have sent a letter to you, fathers, because you have knowledge of him who was from the first. I have sent a letter to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God is in you, and because you have overcome the Evil One.

bbe@1John:2:15 @Have no love for the world or for the things which are in the world. If any man has love for the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

bbe@1John:2:16 @Because everything in the world, the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father but of the world.

bbe@1John:2:22 @Who is false but he who says that Jesus is not the Christ? He is the Antichrist who has no belief in the Father or the Son.

bbe@1John:2:23 @He who has no belief in the Son has not the Father: he who makes clear his belief in the Son has the Father.

bbe@1John:2:24 @But as for you, keep in your hearts the things which were made clear to you from the first. If you keep these things in your hearts you will be kept in the Father and the Son.

bbe@1John:2:27 @As for you, the Spirit which he gave you is still in you, and you have no need of any teacher; but as his Spirit gives you teaching about all things, and is true and not false, so keep your hearts in him, through the teaching which he has given you.

bbe@1John:3:1 @See what great love the Father has given us in naming us the children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not see who we are, because it did not see who he was.

bbe@1John:3:5 @And you have knowledge that he came to take away sin: and in him there is no sin.

bbe@1John:3:9 @Anyone who is a child of God does no sin, because he still has God's seed in him; he is not able to be a sinner, because God is his Father.

bbe@1John:3:10 @In this way it is clear who are the children of God and who are the children of the Evil One; anyone who does not do righteousness or who has no love for his brother, is not a child of God

bbe@1John:3:11 @Because this is the word which was given to you from the first, that we are to have love for one another;

bbe@1John:3:12 @Not being of the Evil One like Cain, who put his brother to death. And why did he put him to death? Because his works were evil and his brother's works were good.

bbe@1John:3:13 @Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world has no love for you.

bbe@1John:3:14 @We are conscious that we have come out of death into life because of our love for the brothers. He who has no love is still in death.

bbe@1John:3:15 @Anyone who has hate for his brother is a taker of life, and you may be certain that no taker of life has eternal life in him.

bbe@1John:3:16 @In this we see what love is, because he gave his life for us; and it is right for us to give our lives for the brothers.

bbe@1John:3:17 @But if a man has this world's goods, and sees that his brother is in need, and keeps his heart shut against his brother, how is it possible for the love of God to be in him?

bbe@1John:3:23 @And this is his law, that we have faith in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love for one another, even as he said to us.

bbe@1John:4:7 @My loved ones, let us have love for one another: because love is of God, and everyone who has love is a child of God and has knowledge of God.

bbe@1John:4:11 @My loved ones, if God had such love for us, it is right for us to have love for one another.

bbe@1John:4:12 @No man has ever seen God: if we have love for one another, God is in us and his love is made complete in us:

bbe@1John:4:14 @And we have seen and give witness that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

bbe@1John:4:18 @There is no fear in love: true love has no room for fear, because where fear is, there is pain; and he who is not free from fear is not complete in love.

bbe@1John:4:20 @If a man says, I have love for God, and has hate for his brother, his words are false: for how is the man who has no love for his brother whom he has seen, able to have love for God whom he has not seen?

bbe@1John:4:21 @And this is the word which we have from him, that he who has love for God is to have the same love for his brother.

bbe@1John:5:1 @Everyone who has faith that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God: and everyone who has love for the Father has love for his child.

bbe@1John:5:8 @There are three witnesses, the Spirit, the water, and the blood: and all three are in agreement.

bbe@1John:5:16 @If a man sees his brother doing a sin which is not bad enough for death, let him make a prayer to God, and God will give life to him whose sin was not bad enough for death. There is a sin whose punishment is death: I do not say that he may make such a request then.

bbe@2John:1:1 @I, a ruler in the church, send word to the noble sister who is of God's selection, and to her children, for whom I have true love; and not only I, but all who have knowledge of what is true;

bbe@2John:1:3 @May grace, mercy, and peace be with us from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in all true love.

bbe@2John:1:4 @It gave me great joy to see some of your children walking in the true way, even as we were ordered to do by the Father.

bbe@2John:1:5 @And now, my sister, I make a request to you, not sending you a new law, but the law which we had from the first, that we have love for one another.

bbe@2John:1:7 @Because a number of false teachers have gone out into the world, who do not give witness that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Such a one is a false teacher and Antichrist.

bbe@2John:1:9 @Anyone who goes on and does not keep to the teaching of Christ, has not God: he who keeps to the teaching has the Father and the Son.

bbe@3John:1:3 @For it gave me great joy when some of the brothers came and gave witness that you had the true faith and were walking in the true way.

bbe@3John:1:5 @My loved one, you are doing a good work in being kind to those brothers who come from other places;

bbe@3John:1:9 @I sent a letter to the church, but Diotrephes, whose desire is ever to have the first place among them, will not have us there.

bbe@3John:1:10 @So if I come, I will keep in mind the things he does, talking against us with evil words: and as if this was not enough, he does not take the brothers into his house, and those who are ready to take them in, he keeps from doing so, putting them out of the church if they do.

bbe@Jude:1:1 @Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and the brother of James, to those of God's selection who have been made holy by God the Father and are kept safe for Jesus Christ:

bbe@Jude:1:18 @How they said to you, In the last days there will be men who, guided by their evil desires, will make sport of holy things.

bbe@Revelation:1:6 @And has made us to be a kingdom and priests to his God and Father; to him let glory and power be given for ever and ever. So be it.

bbe@Revelation:1:9 @I, John, your brother, who have a part with you in the trouble and the kingdom and the quiet strength of Jesus, was in the island which is named Patmos, for the word of God and the witness of Jesus.

bbe@Revelation:2:5 @So keep in mind where you were at first, and be changed in heart and do the first works; or I will come to you, and will take away your light from its place, if your hearts are not changed.

bbe@Revelation:2:13 @I have knowledge that your living-place is where Satan has his seat: and you are true to my name, and were not turned away from your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas, my true witness, who was put to death among you, where Satan has his place.

bbe@Revelation:2:21 @And I gave her time for a change of heart, but she has no mind to give up her unclean ways.

bbe@Revelation:2:22 @See, I will put her into a bed, and those who make themselves unclean with her, into great trouble, if they go on with her works.

bbe@Revelation:2:23 @And I will put her children to death; and all the churches will see that I am he who makes search into the secret thoughts and hearts of men: and I will give to every one of you the reward of your works.

bbe@Revelation:2:24 @But to you I say, to the rest in Thyatira, even to those who have not this teaching, and have no knowledge of the secrets of Satan, as they say; I put on you no other weight.

bbe@Revelation:2:27 @And he will be ruling them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of the potter they will be broken, even as I have power from my Father:

bbe@Revelation:3:5 @He who overcomes will be dressed in white, and I will not take his name from the book of life, and I will give witness to his name before my Father, and before his angels.

bbe@Revelation:3:16 @So because you are not one thing or the other, I will have no more to do with you.

bbe@Revelation:3:17 @For you say, I have wealth, and have got together goods and land, and have need of nothing; and you are not conscious of your sad and unhappy condition, that you are poor and blind and without clothing.

bbe@Revelation:3:21 @To him who overcomes I will give a place with me on my high seat, even as I overcame, and am seated with my Father on his high seat.

bbe@Revelation:4:1 @After these things I saw a door open in heaven, and the first voice came to my ears, like the sound of a horn, saying, Come up here, and I will make clear to you the things which are to come.

bbe@Revelation:4:3 @And to my eyes he was like a jasper and a sardius stone: and there was an arch of light round the high seat, like an emerald.

bbe@Revelation:4:6 @And before the high seat there was, as it seemed, a clear sea of glass; and in the middle of the high seat, and round about it, four beasts full of eyes round about.

bbe@Revelation:5:4 @And I was very sad, because there was no one able to get the book open or to see what was in it.

bbe@Revelation:5:11 @And I saw, and there came to my ears the sound of a great number of angels round about the high seat and the beasts and the rulers; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

bbe@Revelation:6:2 @And I saw a white horse, and he who was seated on it had a bow; and there was given to him a crown: and he went out with power to overcome.

bbe@Revelation:6:4 @And another horse came out, a red horse; and it was given to him who was seated on it to take peace from the earth, so that people might put one another to death: and there was given to him a great sword.

bbe@Revelation:6:8 @And I saw a grey horse, and the name of him who was seated on it was Death; and Hell came after him. And there was given to them authority over the fourth part of the earth, to put to destruction by the sword, and by taking away their food, and by death, and by the beasts of the earth.

bbe@Revelation:6:11 @And there was given to every one a white robe, and they were ordered to take their rest for a little time, till the number was complete of the other servants, their brothers, who would be put to death, even as they had been.

bbe@Revelation:6:12 @And I saw when the sixth stamp was undone, and there was a great earth-shock; and the sun became black as haircloth, and all the moon became as blood;

bbe@Revelation:7:1 @After this I saw four angels in their places at the four points of the earth, keeping back the four winds in their hands, so that there might be no moving of the wind on the earth, or on the sea, or on any tree.

bbe@Revelation:7:2 @And I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the mark of the living God: and he said with a great voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to do damage to the earth and the sea,

bbe@Revelation:7:4 @And there came to my ears the number of those who had the mark on their brows, a hundred and forty-four thousand, who were marked out of every tribe of the people of Israel.

bbe@Revelation:7:6 @Of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand: of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand: of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand:

bbe@Revelation:7:13 @And one of the rulers made answer, saying to me, These who have on white robes, who are they, and where did they come from?

bbe@Revelation:8:1 @And when the seventh stamp was undone there was quiet in heaven for about half an hour.

bbe@Revelation:8:3 @And another angel came and took his place at the altar, having a gold vessel for burning perfume; and there was given to him much perfume, so that he might put it with the prayers of all the saints on the gold altar which was before the high seat.

bbe@Revelation:8:5 @And the angel took the vessel; and he made it full of the fire of the altar, and sent it down on the earth: and there came thunders and voices and flames and a shaking of the earth.

bbe@Revelation:8:10 @And at the sounding of the third angel, there went down from heaven a great star, burning like a flame, and it came on a third part of the rivers, and on the fountains of water.

bbe@Revelation:8:12 @And at the sounding of the fourth angel, a third part of the sun, and of the moon, and of the stars was made dark, so that there was no light for a third part of the day and of the night.

bbe@Revelation:8:13 @And there came to my ears the cry of an eagle in flight in the middle of heaven, saying with a great voice, Trouble, trouble, trouble, to all on the earth, because of the other voices of the horns of the three angels, whose sounding is still to come.

bbe@Revelation:9:1 @And at the sounding of the fifth angel I saw a star falling from heaven to the earth: and there was given to him the key of the great deep.

bbe@Revelation:9:12 @The first Trouble is past: see, there are still two Troubles to come.

bbe@Revelation:9:21 @And they had no regret for putting men to death, or for their use of secret arts, or for the evil desires of the flesh, or for taking the property of others.

bbe@Revelation:10:1 @And I saw another strong angel coming down out of heaven, clothed with a cloud; and an arch of coloured light was round his head, and his face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire;

bbe@Revelation:10:6 @And took his oath by him who is living for ever and ever, who made the heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it, that there would be no more waiting:

bbe@Revelation:11:1 @And there was given to me a measuring rod: and one said, Go up and take the measure of the house of God, and the altar, and the worshippers in it.

bbe@Revelation:11:6 @These have the power to keep the heaven shut, so that there may be no rain in the days when they are prophets: and they have power over the waters to make them into blood, and to send every sort of disease on the earth as their pleasure is.

bbe@Revelation:11:8 @And their dead bodies will be in the open street of the great town, which in the spirit is named Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord was put to death on the cross.

bbe@Revelation:11:10 @And those who are on the earth will have pleasure and delight over them; and they will send offerings one to another because these two prophets gave great trouble to all on the earth.

bbe@Revelation:11:12 @And a great voice from heaven came to their ears, saying to them, Come up here. And they went up into heaven in the cloud, and were seen by those desiring their death.

bbe@Revelation:11:13 @And in that hour there was a great earth-shock and a tenth part of the town came to destruction; and in the earth-shock seven thousand persons came to their end: and the rest were in fear, and gave glory to the God of heaven.

bbe@Revelation:11:15 @And at the sounding of the seventh angel there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ, and he will have rule for ever and ever.

bbe@Revelation:11:19 @And the house of God which is in heaven was open; and the ark of his agreement was seen in his house, and there were flames and voices and thunders and an earth-shock and a rain of ice.

bbe@Revelation:12:1 @And a great sign was seen in heaven: a A woman clothed with the sun, and with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.

bbe@Revelation:12:3 @And there was seen another sign in heaven; a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.

bbe@Revelation:12:4 @And his tail was pulling a third part of the stars of heaven down to the earth, and the dragon took his place before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when the birth had taken place he might put an end to her child.

bbe@Revelation:12:5 @And she gave birth to a son, a male child, who was to have rule over all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was taken up to God and to his high seat.

bbe@Revelation:12:6 @And the woman went in flight to the waste land, where she has a place made ready by God, so that there they may give her food a thousand, two hundred and sixty days.

bbe@Revelation:12:7 @And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels going out to the fight with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels made war,

bbe@Revelation:12:8 @And they were overcome, and there was no more place for them in heaven.

bbe@Revelation:12:10 @And a great voice in heaven came to my ears, saying, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ: because he who says evil against our brothers before our God day and night is forced down.

bbe@Revelation:12:12 @Be glad then, O heavens, and you who are in them. But there is trouble for the earth and the sea: because the Evil One has come down to you, being very angry, having the knowledge that he has but a short time.

bbe@Revelation:12:14 @And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, so that she might go in flight into the waste land, to her place, where she is given food for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the snake.

bbe@Revelation:12:17 @And the dragon was angry with the woman and went away to make war on the rest of her seed, who keep the orders of God, and the witness of Jesus:

bbe@Revelation:13:5 @And there was given to him a mouth to say words of pride against God; and there was given to him authority to go on for forty-two months.

bbe@Revelation:13:7 @And it was given to him to make war on the saints and to overcome them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and people and language and nation.

bbe@Revelation:13:10 @If any man sends others into prison, into prison he will go: if any man puts to death with the sword, with the sword will he be put to death. Here is the quiet strength and the faith of the saints.

bbe@Revelation:13:11 @And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and his voice was like that of a dragon.

bbe@Revelation:13:18 @Here is wisdom. He who has knowledge let him get the number of the beast; because it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty-six.

bbe@Revelation:14:1 @And I saw the Lamb on the mountain of Zion, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand, marked on their brows with his name and the name of his Father.

bbe@Revelation:14:4 @These are they who have not made themselves unclean with women; for they are virgins. These are they who go after the Lamb wherever he goes. These were taken from among men to be the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.

bbe@Revelation:14:5 @And in their mouth there was no false word, for they are untouched by evil.

bbe@Revelation:14:6 @And I saw another angel in flight between heaven and earth, having eternal good news to give to those who are on the earth, and to every nation and tribe and language and people,

bbe@Revelation:14:8 @And a second angel came after, saying, Destruction has come to Babylon the great, which gave to all the nations the wine of the wrath of her evil ways.

bbe@Revelation:14:12 @Here is the quiet strength of the saints, who keep the orders of God, and the faith of Jesus.

bbe@Revelation:14:13 @And a voice from heaven came to my ears, saying, Put in writing, There is a blessing on the dead who from now on come to their end in the Lord: yes, says the Spirit, that they may have rest from their troubles; for their works go with them.

bbe@Revelation:14:15 @And another angel came out from the house of God, crying with a loud voice to him who was seated on the cloud, Put in your blade, and let the grain be cut: because the hour for cutting it is come; for the grain of the earth is over-ready.

bbe@Revelation:14:17 @And another angel came out from the house of God which is in heaven, having a sharp curved blade

bbe@Revelation:14:18 @And another angel came out from the altar, who has power over fire; and he gave a loud cry to him who had the sharp curved blade, saying, Put in your sharp blade, and let the grapes of the vine of the earth be cut; for her grapes are fully ready.

bbe@Revelation:14:19 @And the angel sent his blade into the earth, and the vine of the earth was cut, and he put it into the great wine-crusher of the wrath of God.

bbe@Revelation:15:1 @And I saw another sign in heaven, great and strange; seven angels having the seven last punishments, for in them the wrath of God is complete.

bbe@Revelation:15:4 @What man is there who will not have fear before you, O Lord, and give glory to your name? because you only are holy; for all the nations will come and give worship before you; for your righteousness has been made clear.

bbe@Revelation:16:14 @For they are evil spirits, working signs; who go out even to the kings of all the earth, to get them together to the war of the great day of God, the Ruler of all.

bbe@Revelation:16:16 @And they got them together into the place which is named in Hebrew Armageddon.

bbe@Revelation:16:17 @And the seventh let what was in his vessel come out on the air; and there came out a great voice from the house of God, from the high seat, saying, It is done.

bbe@Revelation:16:18 @And there were flames and voices and thunders; and there was a great earth-shock so that never, from the time when men were on the earth, had there been so great an earth-shock, so full of power.

bbe@Revelation:17:1 @And one of the seven angels who had the seven vessels came and said to me, Come here, so that you may see the judging of the evil woman who is seated on the great waters;

bbe@Revelation:17:2 @With whom the kings of the earth made themselves unclean, and those who are on the earth were full of the wine of her evil desires.

bbe@Revelation:17:4 @And the woman was clothed in purple and bright red, with ornaments of gold and stones of great price and jewels; and in her hand was a gold cup full of evil things and her unclean desires;

bbe@Revelation:17:5 @And on her brow was a name, SECRET, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE EVIL WOMEN AND OF THE UNCLEAN THINGS OF THE EARTH.

bbe@Revelation:17:6 @And I saw the woman overcome as with the wine of the blood of the saints, and the blood of those put to death because of Jesus. And when I saw her, I was overcome with a great wonder.

bbe@Revelation:17:9 @Here is the mind which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman is seated:

bbe@Revelation:17:10 @And they are seven kings; the five have come to an end, the one is, the other has not come; and when he comes, he will have to go on for a little time.

bbe@Revelation:17:15 @And he said to me, The waters which you saw, where the evil woman is seated, are peoples, and armies, and nations and languages.

bbe@Revelation:17:16 @And the ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will be turned against the evil woman, and will make her waste and uncovered, and will take her flesh for food, and will have her burned with fire.

bbe@Revelation:18:1 @After these things I saw another angel coming down out of heaven, having great authority; and the earth was bright with his glory.

bbe@Revelation:18:2 @And he gave a loud cry, saying, Babylon the great has come down from her high place, she has come to destruction and has become a place of evil spirits, and of every unclean spirit, and a hole for every unclean and hated bird.

bbe@Revelation:18:3 @For through the wine of the wrath of her evil desires all the nations have come to destruction; and the kings of the earth made themselves unclean with her, and the traders of the earth had their wealth increased by the power of her evil ways.

bbe@Revelation:18:4 @And another voice from heaven came to my ears, saying, Come out of her, my people, so that you may have no part in her sins and in her punishments.

bbe@Revelation:18:5 @For her sins have gone up even to heaven, and God has taken note of her evil-doing.

bbe@Revelation:18:6 @Give to her as she gave, even an increased reward for her works; in the cup which was mixed by her, let there be mixed as much again for herself.

bbe@Revelation:18:7 @As she gave glory to herself, and became more evil in her ways, in the same measure give her pain and weeping: for she says in her heart, I am seated here a queen, and am no widow, and will in no way see sorrow.

bbe@Revelation:18:8 @For this reason in one day will her troubles come, death and sorrow and need of food; and she will be completely burned with fire; for strong is the Lord God who is her judge.

bbe@Revelation:18:9 @And the kings of the earth, who made themselves unclean with her, and in her company gave themselves up to evil, will be weeping and crying over her, when they see the smoke of her burning,

bbe@Revelation:18:10 @Watching from far away, for fear of her punishment, saying, Sorrow, sorrow for Babylon, the great town, the strong town! for in one hour you have been judged

bbe@Revelation:18:11 @And the traders of the earth are weeping and crying over her, because no man has any more desire for their goods,

bbe@Revelation:18:15 @The traders in these things, by which their wealth was increased, will be watching far off for fear of her punishment, weeping and crying;

bbe@Revelation:18:18 @And crying out when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What town is like the great town?

bbe@Revelation:18:19 @And they put dust on their heads, and were sad, weeping and crying, and saying, Sorrow, sorrow for the great town, in which was increased the wealth of all who had their ships on the sea because of her great stores! for in one hour she is made waste.

bbe@Revelation:18:20 @Be glad over her, heaven, and you saints, and Apostles, and prophets; because she has been judged by God on your account.

bbe@Revelation:18:22 @And the voice of players and makers of music will never again be sounding in you: and no worker, expert in art, will ever again be living in you; and there will be no sound of the crushing of grain any more at all in you;

bbe@Revelation:18:24 @And in her was seen the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been put to death on the earth.

bbe@Revelation:19:1 @After these things there came to my ears a sound like the voice of a great band of people in heaven, saying, Praise to the Lord; salvation and glory and power be to our God:

bbe@Revelation:19:2 @For true and upright are his decisions; for by him has the evil woman been judged, who made the earth unclean with the sins of her body; and he has given her punishment for the blood of his servants.

bbe@Revelation:19:3 @And again they said, Praise to the Lord. And her smoke went up for ever and ever.

bbe@Revelation:19:6 @And there came to my ears the voice of a great army, like the sound of waters, and the sound of loud thunders, saying, Praise to the Lord: for the Lord our God, Ruler of all, is King.

bbe@Revelation:19:7 @Let us be glad with delight, and let us give glory to him: because the time is come for the Lamb to be married, and his wife has made herself ready.

bbe@Revelation:19:8 @And to her it was given to be clothed in delicate linen, clean and shining: for the clean linen is the righteousness of the saints.

bbe@Revelation:19:17 @And I saw an angel taking his place in the sun; and he was crying with a loud voice, saying to all the birds in flight in the heavens, Come together to the great feast of God;

bbe@Revelation:19:19 @And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, come together to make war against him who was seated on the horse and against his army.

bbe@Revelation:20:8 @And will go out to put in error the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to get them together to the war, the number of whom is like the sands of the sea.

bbe@Revelation:20:10 @And the Evil One who put them in error was sent down into the sea of ever-burning fire, where the beast and the false prophet are, and their punishment will go on day and night for ever and ever.

bbe@Revelation:20:11 @And I saw a great white seat, and him who was seated on it, before whose face the earth and the heaven went in flight; and there was no place for them.

bbe@Revelation:20:12 @And I saw the dead, great and small, taking their places before the high seat; and the books were open, and another book was open, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged by the things which were in the books, even by their works

bbe@Revelation:21:1 @And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were gone; and there was no more sea.

bbe@Revelation:21:2 @And I saw the holy town, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, like a bride made beautiful for her husband.

bbe@Revelation:21:3 @And there came to my ears a great voice out of the high seat, saying, See, the Tent of God is with men, and he will make his living-place with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them, and be their God.

bbe@Revelation:21:4 @And he will put an end to all their weeping; and there will be no more death, or sorrow, or crying, or pain; for the first things have come to an end.

bbe@Revelation:21:7 @He who overcomes will have these things for his heritage; and I will be his God, and he will be my son.

bbe@Revelation:21:9 @And one of the seven angels who had the seven vessels in which were the seven last punishments, came and said to me, Come here, and see the bride, the Lamb's wife.

bbe@Revelation:21:11 @Having the glory of God: and her light was like a stone of great price, a jasper stone, clear as glass:

bbe@Revelation:21:22 @And I saw no Temple there; because the Lord God, the Ruler of all, and the Lamb are its Temple.

bbe@Revelation:21:25 @And the doors of it will never be shut by day (for there is no night there):

bbe@Revelation:22:3 @And there will be no more curse: and the high seat of God and of the Lamb will be there; and his servants will be worshipping him;

bbe@Revelation:22:5 @And there will be no more night; and they have no need of a light or of the shining of the sun; for the Lord God will give them light: and they will be ruling for ever and ever.

bbe@Revelation:22:9 @And he said to me, See you do it not; I am a brother-servant with you and with your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book: give worship to God.
