dourh@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,

dourh@Romans:1:3 @ Concerning his Son, who was made to him of the seed of David, according to the flesh,

dourh@Romans:1:4 @ Who was predestinated the Son of God in power, according to the spirit of sanctification, by the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead;

dourh@Romans:1:5 @ By whom we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith, in all nations, for his name;

dourh@Romans:1:7 @ To all that are at Rome, the beloved of God, called to be saints. Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@Romans:1:8 @ First I give thanks to my God, through Jesus Christ, for you all, because your faith is spoken of in the whole world.

dourh@Romans:1:10 @ Always in my prayers making request, if by any means now at length I may have a prosperous journey, by the will of God, to come unto you.

dourh@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual grace, to strengthen you:

dourh@Romans:1:12 @ That is to say, that I may be comforted together in you, by that which is common to us both, your faith and mine.

dourh@Romans:1:13 @ And I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I have often purposed to come unto you, (and have been hindered hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.

dourh@Romans:1:14 @ To the Greeks and to the barbarians, to the wise and to the unwise, I am a debtor;

dourh@Romans:1:15 @ So (as much as is in me) I am ready to preach the gospel to you also that are at Rome.

dourh@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel. For it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth, to the Jew first, and to the Greek.

dourh@Romans:1:17 @ For the justice of God is revealed therein, from faith unto faith, as it is written: The just man liveth by faith.

dourh@Romans:1:19 @ Because that which is known of God is manifest in them. For God hath manifested it unto them.

dourh@Romans:1:20 @ For the invisible things of him, from the creation of the world, are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made; his eternal power also, and divinity: so that they are inexcusable.

dourh@Romans:1:22 @ For professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

dourh@Romans:1:23 @ And they changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of the image of a corruptible man, and of birds, and of fourfooted beasts, and of creeping things.

dourh@Romans:1:24 @ Wherefore God gave them up to the desires of their heart, unto uncleanness, to dishonour their own bodies among themselves.

dourh@Romans:1:25 @ Who changed the truth of God into a lie; and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

dourh@Romans:1:26 @ For this cause God delivered them up to shameful affections. For their women have changed the natural use into that use which is against nature.

dourh@Romans:1:27 @ And, in like manner, the men also, leaving the natural use of the women, have burned in their lusts one towards another, men with men working that which is filthy, and receiving in themselves the recompense which was due to their error.

dourh@Romans:1:28 @ And as they liked not to have God in their knowledge, God delivered them up to a reprobate sense, to do those things which are not convenient;

dourh@Romans:1:30 @ Detractors, hateful to God, contumelious, proud, haughty, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

dourh@Romans:1:32 @ Who, having known the justice of God, did not understand that they who do such things, are worthy of death; and not only they that do them, but they also that consent to them that do them.

dourh@Romans:2:2 @ For we know that the judgment of God is, according to truth, against them that do such things.

dourh@Romans:2:4 @ Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and patience, and longsuffering? Knowest thou not, that the benignity of God leadeth thee to penance?

dourh@Romans:2:5 @ But according to thy hardness and impenitent heart, thou treasurest up to thyself wrath, against the day of wrath, and revelation of the just judgment of God.

dourh@Romans:2:6 @ Who will render to every man according to his works.

dourh@Romans:2:7 @ To them indeed, who according to patience in good work, seek glory and honour and incorruption, eternal life:

dourh@Romans:2:8 @ But to them that are contentious, and who obey not the truth, but give credit to iniquity, wrath and indignation.

dourh@Romans:2:10 @ But glory, and honour, and peace to every one that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

dourh@Romans:2:14 @ For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature those things that are of the law; these having not the law are a law to themselves:

dourh@Romans:2:15 @ Who shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness to them, and their thoughts between themselves accusing, or also defending one another,

dourh@Romans:2:16 @ In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.

dourh@Romans:2:20 @ An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, having the form of knowledge and of truth in the law.

dourh@Romans:3:2 @ Much every way. First indeed, because the words of God were committed to them.

dourh@Romans:3:6 @ (I speak according to man.) God forbid: otherwise how shall God judge this world?

dourh@Romans:3:7 @ For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie, unto his glory, why am I also yet judged as a sinner?

dourh@Romans:3:12 @ All have turned out of the way; they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, there is not so much as one.

dourh@Romans:3:13 @ Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have dealt deceitfully. The venom of asps is under their lips.

dourh@Romans:3:15 @ Their feet swift to shed blood:

dourh@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know, that what things soever the law speaketh, it speaketh to them that are in the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be made subject to God.

dourh@Romans:3:22 @ Even the justice of God, by faith of Jesus Christ, unto all and upon all them that believe in him: for there is no distinction:

dourh@Romans:3:25 @ Whom God hath proposed to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to the shewing of his justice, for the remission of former sins,

dourh@Romans:3:28 @ For we account a man to be justified by faith, without the works of the law.

dourh@Romans:4:1 @ What shall we say then that Abraham hath found, who is our father according to the flesh.

dourh@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory, but not before God.

dourh@Romans:4:3 @ For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.

dourh@Romans:4:4 @ Now to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned according to grace, but according to debt.

dourh@Romans:4:5 @ But to him that worketh not, yet believeth in him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reputed to justice, according to the purpose of the grace of God.

dourh@Romans:4:6 @ As David also termeth the blessedness of a man, to whom God reputeth justice without works:

dourh@Romans:4:8 @ Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed sin.

dourh@Romans:4:9 @ This blessedness then, doth it remain in the circumcision only, or in the uncircumcision also? For we say that unto Abraham faith was reputed to justice.

dourh@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the justice of the faith, which he had, being uncircumcised; that he might be the father of all them that believe, being uncircumcised, that unto them also it may be reputed to justice:

dourh@Romans:4:12 @ And might be the father of circumcision; not to them only, that are of the circumcision, but to them also that follow the steps of the faithful, that is in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.

dourh@Romans:4:13 @ For not through the law was the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, that he should be heir of the world; but through the justice of faith.

dourh@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore is it of faith, that according to grace the promise might be firm to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all,

dourh@Romans:4:18 @ Who against hope believed in hope; that he might be made the father of many nations, according to that which was said to him: So shall thy seed be.

dourh@Romans:4:20 @ In the promise also of God he staggered not by distrust; but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God:

dourh@Romans:4:21 @ Most fully knowing, that whatsoever he has promised, he is able also to perform.

dourh@Romans:4:22 @ And therefore it was reputed to him unto justice.

dourh@Romans:4:23 @ Now it is not written only for him, that it was reputed to him unto justice,

dourh@Romans:4:24 @ But also for us, to whom it shall be reputed, if we believe in him, that raised up Jesus Christ, our Lord, from the dead,

dourh@Romans:5:2 @ By whom also we have access through faith into this grace, wherein we stand, and glory in the hope of the glory of the sons of God.

dourh@Romans:5:5 @ And hope confoundeth not: because the charity of God is poured forth in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost, who is given to us.

dourh@Romans:5:6 @ For why did Christ, when as yet we were weak, according to the time, die for the ungodly?

dourh@Romans:5:7 @ For scarce for a just man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man some one would dare to die.

dourh@Romans:5:8 @ But God commendeth his charity towards us; because when as yet we were sinners, according to the time,

dourh@Romans:5:10 @ For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son; much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

dourh@Romans:5:12 @ Wherefore as by one man sin entered into this world, and by sin death; and so death passed upon all men, in whom all have sinned.

dourh@Romans:5:14 @ But death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even over them also who have not sinned after the similitude of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come.

dourh@Romans:5:15 @ But not as the offence, so also the gift. For if by the offence of one, many died; much more the grace of God, and the gift, by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

dourh@Romans:5:16 @ And not as it was by one sin, so also is the gift. For judgment indeed was by one unto condemnation; but grace is of many offences, unto justification.

dourh@Romans:5:18 @ Therefore, as by the offence of one, unto all men to condemnation; so also by the justice of one, unto all men to justification of life.

dourh@Romans:5:21 @ That as sin hath reigned to death; so also grace might reign by justice unto life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

dourh@Romans:6:2 @ God forbid. For we that are dead to sin, how shall we live any longer therein?

dourh@Romans:6:4 @ For we are buried together with him by baptism into death; that as Christ is risen from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also may walk in newness of life.

dourh@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.

dourh@Romans:6:6 @ Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin may be destroyed, to the end that we may serve sin no longer.

dourh@Romans:6:8 @ Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live also together with Christ:

dourh@Romans:6:10 @ For in that he died to sin, he died once; but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God:

dourh@Romans:6:11 @ So do you also reckon, that you are dead to sin, but alive unto God, in Christ Jesus our Lord.

dourh@Romans:6:12 @ Let no sin therefore reign in your mortal body, so as to obey the lusts thereof.

dourh@Romans:6:13 @ Neither yield ye your members as instruments of iniquity unto sin; but present yourselves to God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of justice unto God.

dourh@Romans:6:16 @ Know you not, that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are whom you obey, whether it be of sin unto death, or of obedience unto justice.

dourh@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God, that you were the servants of sin, but have obeyed from the heart, unto that form of doctrine, into which you have been delivered.

dourh@Romans:6:19 @ I speak an human thing, because of the infirmity of your flesh. For as you have yielded your members to serve uncleanness and iniquity, unto iniquity; so now yield your members to serve justice, unto sanctification.

dourh@Romans:6:20 @ For when you were the servants of sin, you were free men to justice.

dourh@Romans:6:22 @ But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, you have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end life everlasting.

dourh@Romans:7:1 @ Know you not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) that the law hath dominion over a man, as long as it liveth?

dourh@Romans:7:2 @ For the woman that hath an husband, whilst her husband liveth is bound to the law. But if her husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.

dourh@Romans:7:4 @ Therefore, my brethren, you also are become dead to the law, by the body of Christ; that you may belong to another, who is risen again from the dead, that we may bring forth fruit to God.

dourh@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members, to bring forth fruit unto death.

dourh@Romans:7:10 @ And I died. And the commandment that was ordained to life, the same was found to be unto death to me.

dourh@Romans:7:13 @ Was that then which is good, made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it may appear sin, by that which is good, wrought death in me; that sin, by the commandment, might become sinful above measure.

dourh@Romans:7:16 @ If then I do that which I will not, I consent to the law, that it is good.

dourh@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will, is present with me; but to accomplish that which is good, I find not.

dourh@Romans:7:21 @ I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me.

dourh@Romans:7:22 @ For I am delighted with the law of God, according to the inward man:

dourh@Romans:8:1 @ There is now therefore no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh.

dourh@Romans:8:4 @ That the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.

dourh@Romans:8:5 @ For they that are according to the flesh, mind the things that are of the flesh; but they that are according to the spirit, mind the things that are of the spirit.

dourh@Romans:8:7 @ Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither can it be.

dourh@Romans:8:12 @ Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

dourh@Romans:8:13 @ For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if by the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the flesh, you shall live.

dourh@Romans:8:16 @ For the Spirit himself giveth testimony to our spirit, that we are the sons of God.

dourh@Romans:8:18 @ For I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us.

dourh@Romans:8:20 @ For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope:

dourh@Romans:8:21 @ Because the creature also itself shall be delivered from the servitude of corruption, into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.

dourh@Romans:8:27 @ And he that searcheth the hearts, knoweth what the Spirit desireth; because he asketh for the saints according to God.

dourh@Romans:8:28 @ And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints.

dourh@Romans:8:29 @ For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his Son; that he might be the firstborn amongst many brethren.

dourh@Romans:8:31 @ What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who is against us?

dourh@Romans:8:36 @ (As it is written: For thy sake we are put to death all the day long. We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.)

dourh@Romans:8:38 @ For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might,

dourh@Romans:8:39 @ Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

dourh@Romans:9:11 @ For when the children were not yet born, nor had done any good or evil (that the purpose of God, according to election, might stand,)

dourh@Romans:9:12 @ Not of works, but of him that calleth, it was said to her: The elder shall serve the younger.

dourh@Romans:9:15 @ For he saith to Moses: I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy; and I will shew mercy to whom I will shew mercy.

dourh@Romans:9:17 @ For the scripture saith to Pharao: To this purpose have I raised thee, that I may shew my power in thee, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth.

dourh@Romans:9:19 @ Thou wilt say therefore to me: Why doth he then find fault? for who resisteth his will?

dourh@Romans:9:20 @ O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it: Why hast thou made me thus?

dourh@Romans:9:21 @ Or hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump, to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

dourh@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath, fitted for destruction,

dourh@Romans:9:23 @ That he might shew the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he hath prepared unto glory?

dourh@Romans:9:26 @ And it shall be, in the place where it was said unto them, You are not my people; there they shall be called the sons of the living God.

dourh@Romans:9:29 @ And as Isaias foretold: Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been made as Sodom, and we had been like unto Gomorrha.

dourh@Romans:9:30 @ What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who followed not after justice, have attained to justice, even the justice that is of faith.

dourh@Romans:9:31 @ But Israel, by following after the law of justice, is not come unto the law of justice.

dourh@Romans:9:32 @ Why so? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were of works. For they stumbled at the stumblingstone.

dourh@Romans:9:33 @ As it is written: Behold I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and a rock of scandal; and whosoever believeth in him shall not be confounded.

dourh@Romans:10:1 @ Brethren, the will of my heart, indeed, and my prayer to God, is for them unto salvation.

dourh@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear them witness, that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

dourh@Romans:10:3 @ For they, not knowing the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own, have not submitted themselves to the justice of God.

dourh@Romans:10:4 @ For the end of the law is Christ, unto justice to every one that believeth.

dourh@Romans:10:6 @ But the justice which is of faith, speaketh thus: Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? that is, to bring Christ down;

dourh@Romans:10:7 @ Or who shall descend into the deep? that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.

dourh@Romans:10:10 @ For, with the heart, we believe unto justice; but, with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.

dourh@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no distinction of the Jew and the Greek: for the same is Lord over all, rich unto all that call upon him.

dourh@Romans:10:18 @ But I say: Have they not heard? Yes, verily, their sound hath gone forth into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the whole world.

dourh@Romans:10:19 @ But I say: Hath not Israel known? First, Moses saith: I will provoke you to jealousy by that which is not a nation; by a foolish nation I will anger you.

dourh@Romans:10:20 @ But Isaias is bold, and saith: I was found by them that did not seek me: I appeared openly to them that asked not after me.

dourh@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he saith: All the day long have I spread my hands to a people that believeth not, and contradicteth me.

dourh@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, have they so stumbled, that they should fall? God forbid. But by their offence, salvation is come to the Gentiles, that they may be emulous of them.

dourh@Romans:11:13 @ For I say to you, Gentiles: as long indeed as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I will honour my ministry,

dourh@Romans:11:14 @ If, by any means, I may provoke to emulation them who are my flesh, and may save some of them.

dourh@Romans:11:22 @ See then the goodness and the severity of God: towards them indeed that are fallen, the severity; but towards thee, the goodness of God, if thou abide in goodness, otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

dourh@Romans:11:23 @ And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.

dourh@Romans:11:24 @ For if thou wert cut out of the wild olive tree, which is natural to thee; and, contrary to nature, were grafted into the good olive tree; how much more shall they that are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

dourh@Romans:11:27 @ And this is to them my covenant: when I shall take away their sins.

dourh@Romans:11:28 @ As concerning the gospel, indeed, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are most dear for the sake of the fathers.

dourh@Romans:11:35 @ Or who hath first given to him, and recompense shall be made him?

dourh@Romans:11:36 @ For of him, and by him, and in him, are all things: to him be glory for ever. Amen.

dourh@Romans:12:1 @ I BESEECH you therefore, brethren, by the mercy of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing unto God, your reasonable service.

dourh@Romans:12:2 @ And be not conformed to this world; but be reformed in the newness of your mind, that you may prove what is the good, and the acceptable, and the perfect will of God.

dourh@Romans:12:3 @ For I say, by the grace that is given me, to all that are among you, not to be more wise than it behoveth to be wise, but to be wise unto sobriety, and according as God hath divided to every one the measure of faith.

dourh@Romans:12:6 @ And having different gifts, according to the grace that is given us, either prophecy, to be used according to the rule of faith;

dourh@Romans:12:9 @ Let love be without dissimulation. Hating that which is evil, cleaving to that which is good.

dourh@Romans:12:13 @ Communicating to the necessities of the saints. Pursuing hospitality.

dourh@Romans:12:16 @ Being of one mind one towards another. Not minding high things, but consenting to the humble. Be not wise in your own conceits.

dourh@Romans:12:17 @ To no man rendering evil for evil. Providing good things, not only in the sight of God, but also in the sight of all men.

dourh@Romans:12:19 @ Revenge not yourselves, my dearly beloved; but give place unto wrath, for it is written: Revenge is mine, I will repay, saith the Lord.

dourh@Romans:12:20 @ But if thy enemy be hungry, give him to eat; if he thirst, give him to drink. For, doing this, thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.

dourh@Romans:13:1 @ Let every soul be subject to higher powers: for there is no power but from God: and those that are, are ordained of God.

dourh@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore he that resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God. And they that resist, purchase to themselves damnation.

dourh@Romans:13:3 @ For princes are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good: and thou shalt have praise from the same.

dourh@Romans:13:4 @ For he is God's minister to thee, for good. But if thou do that which is evil, fear: for he beareth not the sword in vain. For he is God's minister: an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doth evil.

dourh@Romans:13:6 @ For therefore also you pay tribute. For they are the ministers of God, serving unto this purpose.

dourh@Romans:13:7 @ Render therefore to all men their dues. Tribute, to whom tribute is due: custom, to whom custom: fear, to whom fear: honour, to whom honour.

dourh@Romans:13:8 @ Owe no man any thing, but to love one another. For he that loveth his neighbour, hath fulfilled the law.

dourh@Romans:13:11 @ And that knowing the season; that it is now the hour for us to rise from sleep. For now our salvation is nearer than when we believed.

dourh@Romans:14:1 @ Now him that is weak in faith, take unto you: not in disputes about thoughts.

dourh@Romans:14:3 @ Let not him that eateth, despise him that eateth not: and he that eateth not, let him not judge him that eateth. For God hath taken him to him.

dourh@Romans:14:4 @ Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? To his own lord he standeth or falleth. And he shall stand: for God is able to make him stand.

dourh@Romans:14:6 @ He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord. And he that eateth, eateth to the Lord: for he giveth thanks to God. And he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth thanks to God.

dourh@Romans:14:7 @ For none of us liveth to himself; and no man dieth to himself.

dourh@Romans:14:8 @ For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; or whether we die, we die unto the Lord. Therefore, whether we live, or whether we die, we are the Lord's.

dourh@Romans:14:9 @ For to this end Christ died and rose again; that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.

dourh@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written: As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

dourh@Romans:14:12 @ Therefore every one of us shall render account to God for himself.

dourh@Romans:14:14 @ I know, and am confident in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself; but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

dourh@Romans:14:15 @ For if, because of thy meat, thy brother be grieved, thou walkest not now according to charity. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

dourh@Romans:14:19 @ Therefore let us follow after the things that are of peace; and keep the things that are of edification one towards another.

dourh@Romans:14:21 @ It is good not to eat flesh, and not to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother is offended, or scandalized, or made weak.

dourh@Romans:14:22 @ Hast thou faith? Have it to thyself before God. Blessed is he that condemneth not himself in that which he alloweth.

dourh@Romans:15:1 @ Now we that are stronger, ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

dourh@Romans:15:2 @ Let every one of you please his neighbour unto good, to edification.

dourh@Romans:15:5 @ Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be of one mind one towards another, according to Jesus Christ:

dourh@Romans:15:7 @ Wherefore receive one another, as Christ also hath received you unto the honour of God.

dourh@Romans:15:8 @ For I say that Christ Jesus was minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers.

dourh@Romans:15:9 @ But that the Gentiles are to glorify God for his mercy, as it is written: Therefore will I confess to thee, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and will sing to thy name.

dourh@Romans:15:12 @ And again Isaias saith: There shall be a root of Jesse; and he that shall rise up to rule the Gentiles, in him the Gentiles shall hope.

dourh@Romans:15:14 @ And I myself also, my brethren, am assured of you, that you also are full of love, replenished with all knowledge, so that you are able to admonish one another.

dourh@Romans:15:15 @ But I have written to you, brethren, more boldly in some sort, as it were putting you in mind: because of the grace which is given me from God.

dourh@Romans:15:17 @ I have therefore glory in Christ Jesus towards God.

dourh@Romans:15:18 @ For I dare not to speak of any of those things which Christ worketh not by me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,

dourh@Romans:15:19 @ By the virtue of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Ghost, so that from Jerusalem round about as far as unto Illyricum, I have replenished the gospel of Christ.

dourh@Romans:15:21 @ But as it is written: They to whom he was not spoken of, shall see, and they that have not heard shall understand.

dourh@Romans:15:22 @ For which cause also I was hindered very much from coming to you, and have been kept away till now.

dourh@Romans:15:23 @ But now having no more place in these countries, and having a great desire these many years past to come unto you,

dourh@Romans:15:24 @ When I shall begin to take my journey into Spain, I hope that as I pass, I shall see you, and be brought on my way thither by you, if first, in part, I shall have enjoyed you:

dourh@Romans:15:25 @ But now I shall go to Jerusalem, to minister unto the saints.

dourh@Romans:15:26 @ For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a contribution for the poor of the saints that are in Jerusalem.

dourh@Romans:15:27 @ For it hath pleased them; and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they ought also in carnal things to minister to them.

dourh@Romans:15:28 @ When therefore I shall have accomplished this, and consigned to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain.

dourh@Romans:15:29 @ And I know, that when I come to you, I shall come in the abundance of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

dourh@Romans:15:30 @ I beseech you therefore, brethren, through our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the charity of the Holy Ghost, that you help me in your prayers for me to God,

dourh@Romans:15:31 @ That I may be delivered from the unbelievers that are in Judea, and that the oblation of my service may be acceptable in Jerusalem to the saints.

dourh@Romans:15:32 @ That I may come to you with joy, by the will of God, and may be refreshed with you.

dourh@Romans:16:1 @ And I commend to you Phebe, our sister, who is in the ministry of the church, that is in Cenchrae:

dourh@Romans:16:4 @ (Who have for my life laid down their own necks: to whom not I only give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles,)

dourh@Romans:16:8 @ Salute Ampliatus, most beloved to me in the Lord.

dourh@Romans:16:11 @ Salute them that are of Aristobulus' household. Salute Herodian, my kinsman. Salute them that are of Narcissus' household, who are in the Lord.

dourh@Romans:16:17 @ Now I beseech you, brethren, to mark them who make dissensions and offences contrary to the doctrine which you have learned, and avoid them.

dourh@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience is published in every place. I rejoice therefore in you. But I would have you to be wise in good, and simple in evil.

dourh@Romans:16:25 @ Now to him that is able to establish you, according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret from eternity,

dourh@Romans:16:26 @ (Which now is made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the precept of the eternal God, for the obedience of faith,) known among all nations;

dourh@Romans:16:27 @ To God the only wise, through Jesus Christ, to whom be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Sosthenes a brother,

dourh@1Corinthians:1:2 @ To the church of God that is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that invoke the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, in every place of theirs and ours.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:3 @ Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I give thanks to my God always for you, for the grace of God that is given you in Christ Jesus,

dourh@1Corinthians:1:7 @ So that nothing is wanting to you in any grace, waiting for the manifestation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:8 @ Who also will confirm you unto the end without crime, in the day of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God is faithful: by whom you are called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it hath been signified unto me, my brethren, of you, by them that are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of speech, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the word of the cross, to them indeed that perish, is foolishness; but to them that are saved, that is, to us, it is the power of God.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world, by wisdom, knew not God, it pleased God, by the foolishness of our preaching, to save them that believe.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:23 @ But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews indeed a stumblingblock, and unto the Gentiles foolishness:

dourh@1Corinthians:1:24 @ But unto them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

dourh@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For see your vocation, brethren, that there are not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble:

dourh@1Corinthians:1:28 @ And the base things of the world, and the things that are contemptible, hath God chosen, and things that are not, that he might bring to nought things that are:

dourh@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and justice, and sanctification, and redemption:

dourh@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not in loftiness of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of Christ.

dourh@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I judged not myself to know anything among you, but Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

dourh@1Corinthians:2:6 @ Howbeit we speak wisdom among the perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, neither of the princes of this world that come to nought;

dourh@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, a wisdom which is hidden, which God ordained before the world, unto our glory:

dourh@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But, as it is written: That eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love him.

dourh@1Corinthians:2:10 @ But to us God hath revealed them, by this Spirit. For the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

dourh@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the sensual man perceiveth not these things that are of the Spirit of God; for it is foolishness to him, and he cannot understand, because it is spiritually examined.

dourh@1Corinthians:3:1 @ And I, brethren, could not speak to you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal. As unto little ones in Christ.

dourh@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I gave you milk to drink, not meat; for you were not able as yet. But neither indeed are you now able; for you are yet carnal.

dourh@1Corinthians:3:3 @ For, whereas there is among you envying and contention, are you not carnal, and walk according to man?

dourh@1Corinthians:3:5 @ The ministers of him whom you have believed; and to every one as the Lord hath given.

dourh@1Corinthians:3:8 @ Now he that planteth, and he that watereth, ate one. And every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own labour.

dourh@1Corinthians:3:9 @ For we are God's coadjutors: you are God's husbandry; you are God's building.

dourh@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation; and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

dourh@1Corinthians:3:12 @ Now if any man build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble:

dourh@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no man deceive himself: if any man among you seem to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

dourh@1Corinthians:3:22 @ For all things are yours, whether it be Paul, or Apollo, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to some; for all are yours;

dourh@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But to me it is a very small thing to be judged by you, or by man's day; but neither do I judge my own self.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:4 @ For I am not conscious to myself of any thing, yet am I not hereby justified; but he that judgeth me, is the Lord.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore judge not before the time; until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts; and then shall every man have praise from God.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:6 @ But these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollo, for your sakes; that in us you may learn, that one be not puffed up against the other for another, above that which is written.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:8 @ You are now full; you are now become rich; you reign without us; and I would to God you did reign, that we also might reign with you.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think that God hath set forth us apostles, the last, as it were men appointed to death: we are made a spectacle to the world, and to angels, and to men.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:11 @ Even unto this hour we both hunger and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no fixed abode;

dourh@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I write not these things to confound you; but I admonish you as my dearest children.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For if you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet not many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, by the gospel, I have begotten you.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this cause have I sent to you Timothy, who is my dearest son and faithful in the Lord; who will put you in mind of my ways, which are in Christ Jesus; as I teach every where in every church.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:18 @ As if I would not come to you, so some are puffed up.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will: and will know, not the speech of them that are puffed up, but the power.

dourh@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What will you? shall I come to you with a rod; or in charity, and in the spirit of meekness?

dourh@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus;

dourh@1Corinthians:5:5 @ To deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I wrote to you in an epistle, not to keep company with fornicators.

dourh@1Corinthians:5:10 @ I mean not with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or the extortioners, or the servers of idols; otherwise you must needs go out of this world.

dourh@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you, not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or a server of idols, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner: with such a one, not so much as to eat.

dourh@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what have I to do to judge them that are without? Do not you judge them that are within?

dourh@1Corinthians:6:1 @ Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to be judged before the unjust, and not before the saints?

dourh@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Know you not that the saints shall judge this world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

dourh@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If therefore you have judgments of things pertaining to this world, set them to judge, who are the most despised in the church.

dourh@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I speak to your shame. Is it so that there is not among you any one wise man, that is able to judge between his brethren?

dourh@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before unbelievers.

dourh@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Already indeed there is plainly a fault among you, that you have lawsuits one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

dourh@1Corinthians:6:8 @ But you do wrong and defraud, and that to your brethren.

dourh@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Know you not that the unjust shall not possess the kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers,

dourh@1Corinthians:6:10 @ Nor the effeminate, nor liers with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners, shall possess the kingdom of God.

dourh@1Corinthians:6:12 @ All things are lawful to me, but all things are not expedient. All things are lawful to me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

dourh@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or know you not, that he who is joined to a harlot, is made one body? For they shall be, saith he, two in one flesh.

dourh@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who is joined to the Lord, is one spirit.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:1 @ Now concerning the thing whereof you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:3 @ Let the husband render the debt to his wife, and the wife also in like manner to the husband.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:10 @ But to them that are married, not I but the Lord commandeth, that the wife depart not from her husband.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:11 @ And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:12 @ For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:17 @ But as the Lord hath distributed to every one, as God hath called every one, so let him walk: and so in all churches I teach.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:27 @ Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:32 @ But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:33 @ But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:35 @ And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:37 @ For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband die, she is at liberty: let her marry to whom she will; only in the Lord.

dourh@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But more blessed shall she be, if she so remain, according to my counsel; and I think that I also have the spirit of God.

dourh@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up; but charity edifieth.

dourh@1Corinthians:8:2 @ And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he hath not yet known as he ought to know.

dourh@1Corinthians:8:4 @ But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

dourh@1Corinthians:8:6 @ Yet to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

dourh@1Corinthians:8:7 @ But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol: eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

dourh@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more; nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.

dourh@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak.

dourh@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?

dourh@1Corinthians:9:2 @ And if unto others I be not an apostle, but yet to you I am. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

dourh@1Corinthians:9:4 @ Have not we power to eat and to drink?

dourh@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Have we not power to carry about a woman, a sister, as well as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?

dourh@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?

dourh@1Corinthians:9:8 @ Speak I these things according to man? Or doth not the law also say these things?

dourh@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Or doth he say this indeed for our sakes? For these things are written for our sakes: that he that plougheth, should plough in hope; and he that thrasheth, in hope to receive fruit.

dourh@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we reap your carnal things?

dourh@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others be partakers of this power over you, why not we rather? Nevertheless, we have not used this power: but we bear all things, lest we should give any hindrance to the gospel of Christ.

dourh@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die, rather than that any man should make my glory void.

dourh@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For if I preach the gospel, it is no glory to me, for a necessity lieth upon me: for woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel.

dourh@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me:

dourh@1Corinthians:9:19 @ For whereas I was free as to all, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more.

dourh@1Corinthians:9:20 @ And I became to the Jews, a Jew, that I might gain the Jews:

dourh@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To them that are under the law, as if I were under the law, (whereas myself was not under the law,) that I might gain them that were under the law. To them that were without the law, as if I were without the law, (whereas I was not without the law of God, but was in the law of Christ,) that I might gain them that were without the law.

dourh@1Corinthians:9:22 @ To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak. I became all things to all men, that I might save all.

dourh@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I chastise my body, and bring it into subjection: lest perhaps, when I have preached to others, I myself should become a castaway.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Neither become ye idolaters, as some of them, as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happened to them in figure: and they are written for our correction, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:12 @ Wherefore he that thinketh himself to stand, let him take heed lest he fall.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:13 @ Let no temptation take hold on you, but such as is human. And God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able: but will make also with temptation issue, that you may be able to bear it.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I speak as to wise men: judge ye yourselves what I say.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:18 @ Behold Israel according to the flesh: are not they, that eat of the sacrifices, partakers of the altar?

dourh@1Corinthians:10:19 @ What then? Do I say, that what is offered in sacrifice to idols, is any thing? Or, that the idol is any thing?

dourh@1Corinthians:10:20 @ But the things which the heathens sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God. And I would not that you should be made partakers with devils.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:22 @ Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he? All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any of them that believe not, invite you, and you will be willing to go; eat of any thing that is set before you, asking no question for conscience' sake.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if any man say: This has been sacrificed to idols, do not eat of it for his sake that told it, and for conscience' sake.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:31 @ Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatsoever else you do, do all to the glory of God.

dourh@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Be without offence to the Jews, and to the Gentiles, and to the church of God:

dourh@1Corinthians:10:33 @ As I also in all things please all men, not seeking that which is profitable to myself, but to many, that may be saved.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Now I praise you, brethren, that in all things you are mindful of me: and keep my ordinances as I have delivered them to you.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman be not covered, let her be shorn. But if it be a shame to a woman to be shorn or made bald, let her cover her head.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:7 @ The man indeed ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:10 @ Therefore ought the woman to have a power over her head, because of the angels.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:13 @ You yourselves judge: doth it become a woman, to pray unto God uncovered?

dourh@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Doth not even nature itself teach you, that a man indeed, if he nourish his hair, it is a shame unto him?

dourh@1Corinthians:11:15 @ But if a woman nourish her hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the church of God.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now this I ordain: not praising you, that you come together not for the better, but for the worse.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first of all I hear that when you come together in the church, there are schisms among you; and in part I believe it.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When you come therefore together into one place, it is not now to eat the Lord's supper.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For every one taketh before his own supper to eat. And one indeed is hungry and another is drunk.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What, have you not houses to eat and to drink in? Or despise ye the church of God; and put them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? Do I praise you? In this I praise you not.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus, the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Wherefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

dourh@1Corinthians:11:34 @ If any man be hungry, let him eat at home; that you come not together unto judgment. And the rest I will set in order, when I come.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:2 @ You know that when you were heathens, you went to dumb idols, according as you were led.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man, speaking by the Spirit of God, saith Anathema to Jesus. And no man can say the Lord Jesus, but by the Holy Ghost.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:7 @ And the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man unto profit.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:8 @ To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

dourh@1Corinthians:12:9 @ To another, faith in the same spirit; to another, the grace of healing in one Spirit;

dourh@1Corinthians:12:10 @ To another, the working of miracles; to another, prophecy; to another, the discerning of spirits; to another, diverse kinds of tongues; to another, interpretation of speeches.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But all these things one and the same Spirit worketh, dividing to every one according as he will.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether bond or free; and in one Spirit we have all been made to drink.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say to the hand: I need not thy help; nor again the head to the feet: I have no need of you.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:22 @ Yea, much more those that seem to be the more feeble members of the body, are more necessary.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:23 @ And such as we think to be the less honourable members of the body, about these we put more abundant honour; and those that are our uncomely parts, have more abundant comeliness.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:24 @ But our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, giving to that which wanted the more abundant honour,

dourh@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God indeed hath set some in the church; first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly doctors; after that miracles; then the graces of healing, helps, governments, kinds of tongues, interpretations of speeches.

dourh@1Corinthians:12:29 @ Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all doctors?

dourh@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Are all workers of miracles? Have all the grace of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

dourh@1Corinthians:12:31 @ But be zealous for the better gifts. And I shew unto you yet a more excellent way.

dourh@1Corinthians:13:1 @ If I speak with the tongues of men, and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

dourh@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And if I should distribute all my goods to feed the poor, and if I should deliver my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

dourh@1Corinthians:13:5 @ Is not ambitious, seeketh not her own, is not provoked to anger, thinketh no evil;

dourh@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Charity never falleth away: whether prophecies shall be made void, or tongues shall cease, or knowledge shall be destroyed.

dourh@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But, when I became a man, I put away the things of a child.

dourh@1Corinthians:13:12 @ We see now through a glass in a dark manner; but then face to face. Now I know I part; but then I shall know even as I am known.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he that speaketh in a tongue, speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man heareth. Yet by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he that prophesieth, speaketh to men unto edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He that speaketh in a tongue, edifieth himself: but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:5 @ And I would have you all to speak with tongues, but rather to prophesy. For greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues: unless perhaps he interpret, that the church may receive edification.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in doctrine?

dourh@1Corinthians:14:8 @ For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?

dourh@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So likewise you, except you utter by the tongue plain speech, how shall it be known what is said? For you shall be speaking into the air.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are, for example, so many kinds of tongues in this world; and none is without voice.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:11 @ If then I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him to whom I speak a barbarian; and he that speaketh, a barbarian to me.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So you also, forasmuch as you are zealous of spirits, seek to abound unto the edifying of the church.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:13 @ And therefore he that speaketh by a tongue, let him pray that he may interpret.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is without fruit.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Else if thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that holdeth the place of the unlearned say, Amen, to thy blessing? because he knoweth not what thou sayest.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank my God I speak with all your tongues.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:19 @ But in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also; than ten thousand words in a tongue.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written: In other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; and neither so will they hear me, saith the Lord.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:22 @ Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to believers, but to unbelievers; but prophecies not to unbelievers, but to believers.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:23 @ If therefore the whole church come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in unlearned persons or infidels, will they not say that you are mad?

dourh@1Corinthians:14:26 @ How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If any speak with a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and in course, and let one interpret.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there be no interpreter, let him hold his peace in the church, and speak to himself and to God.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:30 @ But if any thing be revealed to another sitting, let the first hold his peace.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:32 @ And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:34 @ Let women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:35 @ But if they would learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for a woman to speak in the church.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Or did the word of God come out from you? Or came it only unto you?

dourh@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If any seem to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him know the things that I write to you, that they are the commandments of the Lord.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:39 @ Wherefore, brethren, be zealous to prophesy; and forbid not to speak with tongues.

dourh@1Corinthians:14:40 @ But let all things be done decently, and according to order.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:1 @ Now I make known unto you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received, and wherein you stand;

dourh@1Corinthians:15:2 @ By which also you are saved, if you hold fast after what manner I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered unto you first of all, which I also received: how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures:

dourh@1Corinthians:15:4 @ And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day, according to the scriptures:

dourh@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Afterwards the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God and the Father, when he shall have brought to nought all principality, and power, and virtue.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:28 @ And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again? Let us eat and drink, for to morrow we shall die.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Awake, ye just, and sin not. For some have not the knowledge of God, I speak it to your shame.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God giveth it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:45 @ The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:54 @ And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.

dourh@1Corinthians:15:55 @ O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?

dourh@1Corinthians:15:57 @ But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@1Corinthians:16:1 @ Now concerning the collections that are made for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, so do ye also.

dourh@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of the week let every one of you put apart with himself, laying up what it shall well please him; that when I come, the collections be not then to be made.

dourh@1Corinthians:16:3 @ And when I shall be with you, whomsoever you shall approve by letters, them will I send to carry your grace to Jerusalem.

dourh@1Corinthians:16:5 @ Now I will come to you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia. For I shall pass through Macedonia.

dourh@1Corinthians:16:9 @ For a great door and evident is opened unto me: and many adversaries.

dourh@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Let no man therefore despise him, but conduct ye him on his way in peace: that he may come to me. For I look for him with the breatheren.

dourh@1Corinthians:16:12 @ And touching our brother Apollo, I give you to understand, that I much entreated him to come unto you with the breatheren: and indeed it was not his will at all to come at this time. But he will come when he shall have leisure.

dourh@1Corinthians:16:15 @ And I beseech you, brethren, you know the house of Stephanas, and of Fortunatus, and of Achaicus, that they are the firstfruits of Achaia, and have dedicated themselves to the ministry of the saints:

dourh@1Corinthians:16:16 @ That you also be subject to such, and to every one that worketh with us, and laboureth.

dourh@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother: to the church of God that is at Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia:

dourh@2Corinthians:1:2 @ Grace unto you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@2Corinthians:1:4 @ Who comforteth us in all our tribulation; that we also may be able to comfort them who are in all distress, by the exhortation wherewith we also are exhorted by God.

dourh@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we would not have you ignorant,brethren, of our tribulation, which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure above our strength, so that we were weary even of life.

dourh@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our glory is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity of heart and sincerity of God, and not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conversed in this world: and more abundantly towards you.

dourh@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we write no other things to you than what you have read and known. And I hope that you shall know unto the end:

dourh@2Corinthians:1:15 @ And in this confidence I had a mind to come to you before, that you might have a second grace:

dourh@2Corinthians:1:16 @ And to pass by you into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be brought on my way towards Judea.

dourh@2Corinthians:1:17 @ Whereas then I was thus minded, did I use lightness? Or, the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that there should be with me, It is, and It is not?

dourh@2Corinthians:1:18 @ But God is faithful, for our preaching which was to you, was not, It is, and It is not.

dourh@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God are in him, It is; therefore also by him, amen to God, unto our glory.

dourh@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But I call God to witness upon my soul, that to spare you, I came not any more to Corinth: not because we exercise dominion over your faith: but we are helpers of your joy: for in faith you stand.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:1 @ But I determined this with myself, not to come to you again in sorrow.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote this same to you; that I may not, when I come, have sorrow upon sorrow, from them of whom I ought to rejoice: having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For out of much affliction and anguish of heart, I wrote to you with many tears: not that you should be made sorrowful: but that you might know the charity I have more abundantly towards you.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:6 @ To him who is such a one, this rebuke is sufficient, which is given by many:

dourh@2Corinthians:2:8 @ Wherefore, I beseech you, that you would confirm your charity towards him.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For to this end also did I write, that I may know the experiment of you, whether you be obedient in all things.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:10 @ And to whom you have pardoned any thing, I also. For, what I have pardoned, if I have pardoned any thing, for your sakes have I done it in the person of Christ.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:12 @ And when I was come to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and a door was opened unto me in the Lord,

dourh@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother; but bidding them farewell, I went into Macedonia.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:14 @ Now thanks be to God, who always maketh us to triumph in Christ Jesus, and manifesteth the odour of his knowledge by us in every place.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are the good odour of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish.

dourh@2Corinthians:2:16 @ To the one indeed the odour of death unto death: but to the others the odour of life unto life. And for these things who is so sufficient?

dourh@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need (as some do) epistles of commendation to you, or from you?

dourh@2Corinthians:3:3 @ Being manifested, that you are the epistle of Christ, ministered by us, and written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in the fleshly tables of the heart.

dourh@2Corinthians:3:4 @ And such confidence we have, through Christ, towards God.

dourh@2Corinthians:3:5 @ Not that we are sufficient to think any thing of ourselves, as of ourselves: but our sufficiency is from God.

dourh@2Corinthians:3:7 @ Now if the ministration of death, engraven with letters upon stones, was glorious; so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses, for the glory of his countenance, which is made void:

dourh@2Corinthians:3:16 @ But when they shall be converted to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away.

dourh@2Corinthians:3:18 @ But we all beholding the glory of the Lord with open face, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, as by the Spirit of the Lord.

dourh@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we renounce the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor adulterating the word of God; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience, in the sight of God.

dourh@2Corinthians:4:3 @ And if our gospel be also hid, it is hid to them that are lost,

dourh@2Corinthians:4:4 @ In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of unbelievers, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine unto them.

dourh@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God, in the face of Christ Jesus.

dourh@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For we who live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake; that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

dourh@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For all things are for your sakes; that the grace abounding through many, may abound in thanksgiving unto the glory of God.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For in this also we groan, desiring to be clothed upon with our habitation that is from heaven.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:8 @ But we are confident, and have a good will to be absent rather from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:9 @ And therefore we labour, whether absent or present, to please him.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we use persuasion to men; but to God we are manifest. And I trust also that in your consciences we are manifest.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We commend not ourselves again to you, but give you occasion to glory in our behalf; that you may have somewhat to answer them who glory in face, and not in heart.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For whether we be transported in mind, it is to God; or whether we be sober, it is for you.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:15 @ And Christ died for all; that they also who live, may not now live to themselves, but unto him who died for them, and rose again.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:16 @ Wherefore henceforth, we know no man according to the flesh. And if we have known Christ according to the flesh; but now we know him so no longer.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:18 @ But all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Christ; and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:19 @ For God indeed was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not imputing to them their sins; and he hath placed in us the word of reconciliation.

dourh@2Corinthians:5:20 @ For Christ therefore we are ambassadors, God as it were exhorting by us. For Christ, we beseech you, be reconciled to God.

dourh@2Corinthians:6:3 @ Giving no offence to any man, that our ministry be not blamed:

dourh@2Corinthians:6:11 @ Our mouth is open to you, O ye Corinthians, our heart is enlarged.

dourh@2Corinthians:6:13 @ But having the same recompense, (I speak as to my children,) be you also enlarged.

dourh@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Wherefore, Go out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing:

dourh@2Corinthians:6:18 @ And I will receive you; and I will be a Father to you; and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

dourh@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I speak not this to your condemnation. For we have said before, that you are in our hearts, to die together, and to live together.

dourh@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For also when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we suffered all tribulation; combats without, fears within.

dourh@2Corinthians:7:7 @ And not by his coming only, but also by the consolation, wherewith he was comforted in you, relating to us your desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced the more.

dourh@2Corinthians:7:9 @ Now I am glad: not because you were made sorrowful; but because you were made sorrowful unto penance. For you were made sorrowful according to God, that you might suffer damage by us in nothing.

dourh@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For the sorrow that is according to God worketh penance, steadfast unto salvation; but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

dourh@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For behold this selfsame thing, that you were made sorrowful according to God, how great carefulness it worketh in you; yea defence, yea indignation, yea fear, yea desire, yea zeal, yea revenge: in all things you have shewed yourselves to be undefiled in the matter.

dourh@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Wherefore although I wrote to you, it was not for his sake that I did the wrong, nor for him that suffered it; but to manifest our carefulness that we have for you

dourh@2Corinthians:7:14 @ And if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I have not been put to shame; but as we have spoken all things to you in truth, so also our boasting that was made to Titus is found a truth.

dourh@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his bowels are more abundantly towards you; remembering the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling you have received him.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:1 @ Now we make known unto you, brethren, the grace of God, that hath been given in the churches of Macedonia.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:2 @ That in much experience of tribulation, they have had abundance of joy; and their very deep poverty hath abounded unto the riches of their simplicity.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For according to their power ( I bear them witness), and beyond their power, they were willing.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:4 @ With much entreaty begging of us the grace and communication of the ministry that is done toward the saints.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And not as we hoped, but they gave their own selves first to the Lord, then to us by the will of God:

dourh@2Corinthians:8:7 @ That as in all things you abound in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all carefulness; moreover also in your charity towards us, so in this grace also you may abound.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And herein I give my advice; for this is profitable for you, who have begun not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:11 @ Now therefore perform ye it also in deed; that as your mind is forward to be willing, so it may be also to perform, out of that which you have.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if the will be forward, it is accepted according to that which a man hath, not according to that which he hath not.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:16 @ And thanks be to God, who hath given the same carefulness for you in the heart of Titus.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more careful, of his own will he went unto you.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:19 @ And not that only, but he was also ordained by the churches companion of our travels, for this grace, which is administered by us, to the glory of the Lord, and our determined will:

dourh@2Corinthians:8:23 @ Either for Titus, who is my companion and fellow labourer towards you, or our brethren, the apostles of the churches, the glory of Christ.

dourh@2Corinthians:8:24 @ Wherefore shew ye to them, in the sight of the churches, the evidence of your charity, and of our boasting on your behalf.

dourh@2Corinthians:9:1 @ For concerning the ministry that is done towards the saints, it is superfluous for me to write unto you.

dourh@2Corinthians:9:2 @ For I know your forward mind: for which I boast of you to the Macedonians. That Achaia also is ready from the year past, and your emulation hath provoked very many.

dourh@2Corinthians:9:4 @ Lest, when the Macedonians shall come with me, and find you unprepared, we (not to say ye) should be ashamed in this matter.

dourh@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought it necessary to desire the brethren that they would go to you before, and prepare this blessing before promised, to be ready, so as a blessing, not as covetousness.

dourh@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God is able to make all grace abound in you; that ye always, having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work,

dourh@2Corinthians:9:9 @ As it is written: He hath dispersed abroad, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever.

dourh@2Corinthians:9:10 @ And he that ministereth seed to the sower, will both give you bread to eat, and will multiply your seed, and increase the growth of the fruits of your justice:

dourh@2Corinthians:9:11 @ That being enriched in all things, you may abound unto all simplicity, which worketh through us thanksgiving to God.

dourh@2Corinthians:9:13 @ By the proof of this ministry, glorifying God for the obedience of your confession unto the gospel of Christ, and for the simplicity of your communicating unto them, and unto all.

dourh@2Corinthians:9:15 @ Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I Paul myself beseech you, by the mildness and modesty of Christ, who in presence indeed am lowly among you, but being absent, am bold toward you.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:2 @ But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present, with that confidence wherewith I am thought to be bold, against some, who reckon us as if we walked according to the flesh.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:3 @ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:4 @ For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty to God unto the pulling down of fortifications, destroying counsels,

dourh@2Corinthians:10:5 @ And every height that exhalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every understanding unto the obedience of Christ;

dourh@2Corinthians:10:6 @ And having in readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience shall be fulfilled.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:7 @ See the things that are according to outward appearance. If any man trust to himself, that he is Christ's, let him think this again with himself, that as he is Christ's, so are we also.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For if also I should boast somewhat more of our power, which the Lord hath given us unto edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:9 @ But that I may not be thought as it were to terrify you by epistles,

dourh@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not glory beyond our measure; but according to the measure of the rule, which God hath measured to us, a measure to reach even unto you.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as if we reached not unto you. For we are come as far as to you in the gospel of Christ.

dourh@2Corinthians:10:15 @ Not glorying beyond measure in other men's labours; but having hope of your increasing faith, to be magnified in you according to our rule abundantly;

dourh@2Corinthians:10:16 @ Yea, unto those places that are beyond you, to preach the gospel, not to glory in another man's rule, in those things that are made ready to our hand.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:1 @ Would to God you could bear with some little of my folly: but do bear with me.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous of you with the jealousy of God. For I have espoused you to one husband that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:6 @ For although I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but in all things we have been made manifest to you.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Or did I commit a fault, humbling myself, that you might be exalted? Because I preached unto you the gospel of God freely?

dourh@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And, when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was wanting to me, the brethren supplied who came from Macedonia; and in all things I have kept myself from being burthensome to you, and so I will keep myself.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such false apostles are deceitful workmen, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:14 @ And no wonder: for Satan himself transformeth himself into an angel of light.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:15 @ Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers be transformed as the ministers of justice, whose end shall be according to their works.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I say again, (let no man think me to be foolish, otherwise take me as one foolish, that I also may glory a little.)

dourh@2Corinthians:11:17 @ That which I speak, I speak not according to God, but as it were in foolishness, in this matter of glorying.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:18 @ Seeing that many glory according to the flesh, I will glory also.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:20 @ For you suffer if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take from you, if a man be lifted up, if a man strike you on the face.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:21 @ I speak according to dishonour, as if we had been weak in this part. Wherein if any man dare (I speak foolishly), I dare also.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Thrice was I beaten with rods, once I was stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I was in the depth of the sea.

dourh@2Corinthians:11:32 @ At Damascus, the governor of the nation under Aretas the king, guarded the city of the Damascenes, to apprehend me.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:1 @ If I must glory (it is not expedient indeed): but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ above fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I know not, or out of the body, I know not; God knoweth), such a one caught up to the third heaven.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:4 @ That he was caught up into paradise, and heard secret words, which it is not granted to man to utter.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:6 @ For though I should have a mind to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I will say the truth. But I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth in me, or any thing he heareth from me.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And lest the greatness of the revelations should exalt me, there was given me a sting of my flesh, an angel of Satan, to buffet me.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:9 @ And he said to me: My grace is sufficient for thee; for power is made perfect in infirmity. Gladly therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell in me.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I am become foolish: you have compelled me. For I ought to have been commended by you: for I have no way come short of them that are above measure apostles, although I be nothing.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For what is there that you have had less than the other churches, but that I myself was not burthensome to you? Pardon me this injury.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Behold now the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burthensome unto you. For I seek not the things that are yours, but you. For neither ought the children to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

dourh@2Corinthians:12:17 @ Did I overreach you by any of them whom I sent to you?

dourh@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Of old, think you that we excuse ourselves to you? We speak before God in Christ; but all things, my dearly beloved, for your edification.

dourh@2Corinthians:13:1 @ Behold, this is the third time I am coming to you: In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word stand.

dourh@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I have told before, and foretell, as present, and now absent, to them that sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare.

dourh@2Corinthians:13:3 @ Do you seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me, who towards you is not weak, but is mighty in you?

dourh@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For although he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him: but we shall live with him by the power of God towards you.

dourh@2Corinthians:13:10 @ Therefore I write these things, being absent, that, being present, I may not deal more severely, according to the power which the Lord hath given me unto edification, and not unto destruction.

dourh@Galatians:1:2 @ And all the brethren who are with me, to the churches of Galatia.

dourh@Galatians:1:3 @ Grace be to you, and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,

dourh@Galatians:1:4 @ Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present wicked world, according to the will of God and our Father:

dourh@Galatians:1:5 @ To whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen.

dourh@Galatians:1:6 @ I wonder that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ, unto another gospel.

dourh@Galatians:1:8 @ But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema.

dourh@Galatians:1:9 @ As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema.

dourh@Galatians:1:10 @ For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? If I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

dourh@Galatians:1:11 @ For I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.

dourh@Galatians:1:16 @ To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, immediately I condescended not to flesh and blood.

dourh@Galatians:1:17 @ Neither went I to Jerusalem, to the apostles who were before me: but I went into Arabia, and again I returned to Damascus.

dourh@Galatians:1:18 @ Then, after three years, I went to Jerusalem, to see Peter, and I tarried with him fifteen days.

dourh@Galatians:1:20 @ Now the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I lie not.

dourh@Galatians:1:21 @ Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

dourh@Galatians:1:22 @ And I was unknown by face to the churches of Judea, which were in Christ:

dourh@Galatians:2:1 @ Then, after fourteen years, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me.

dourh@Galatians:2:2 @ And I went up according to revelation; and communicated to them the gospel, which I preach among the Gentiles, but apart to them who seemed to be some thing: lest perhaps I should run, or had run in vain.

dourh@Galatians:2:3 @ But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Gentile, was compelled to be circumcised.

dourh@Galatians:2:4 @ But because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privately to spy our liberty, which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into servitude.

dourh@Galatians:2:5 @ To whom we yielded not by subjection, no not for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

dourh@Galatians:2:6 @ But of them who seemed to be some thing, (what they were some time, it is nothing to me, God accepteth not the person of man,) for to me they that seemed to be some thing added nothing.

dourh@Galatians:2:7 @ But contrariwise, when they had seen that to me was committed the gospel of the uncircumcision, as to Peter was that of the circumcision.

dourh@Galatians:2:8 @ (For he who wrought in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, wrought in me also among the Gentiles.)

dourh@Galatians:2:9 @ And when they had known the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship: that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision:

dourh@Galatians:2:10 @ Only that we should be mindful of the poor: which same thing also I was careful to do.

dourh@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Cephas was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.

dourh@Galatians:2:13 @ And to his dissimulation the rest of the Jews consented, so that Barnabas also was led by them into that dissimulation.

dourh@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they walked not uprightly unto the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all: If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of the Gentiles, and not as the Jews do, how dost thou compel the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

dourh@Galatians:2:17 @ But if while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners; is Christ then the minister of sin? God forbid.

dourh@Galatians:2:18 @ For if I build up again the things which I have destroyed, I make myself a prevaricator.

dourh@Galatians:2:19 @ For I, through the law, am dead to the law, that I may live to God: with Christ I am nailed to the cross.

dourh@Galatians:3:5 @ He therefore who giveth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you; doth he do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of the faith?

dourh@Galatians:3:6 @ As it is written: Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.

dourh@Galatians:3:8 @ And the scripture, foreseeing, that God justifieth the Gentiles by faith, told unto Abraham before: In thee shall all nations be blessed.

dourh@Galatians:3:10 @ For as many as are of the works of the law, are under a curse. For it is written: Cursed is every one, that abideth not in all things, which are written in the book of the law to do them.

dourh@Galatians:3:15 @ Brethren (I speak after the manner of man,) yet a man's testament, if it be confirmed, no man despiseth, nor addeth to it.

dourh@Galatians:3:16 @ To Abraham were the promises made and to his seed. He saith not, And to his seeds, as of many: but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

dourh@Galatians:3:17 @ Now this I say, that the testament which was confirmed by God, the law which was made after four hundred and thirty years, doth not disannul, to make the promise of no effect.

dourh@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise. But God gave it to Abraham by promise.

dourh@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then was the law? It was set because of transgressions, until the seed should come, to whom he made the promise, being ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

dourh@Galatians:3:20 @ Now a mediator is not of one: but God is one.

dourh@Galatians:3:22 @ But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise, by the faith of Jesus Christ, might be given to them that believe.

dourh@Galatians:3:23 @ But before the faith came, we were kept under the law shut up, unto that faith which was to be revealed.

dourh@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you be Christ's, then are you the seed of Abraham, heirs according to the promise.

dourh@Galatians:4:2 @ But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed by the father:

dourh@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God hath sent the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying: Abba, Father.

dourh@Galatians:4:9 @ But now, after that you have known God, or rather are known by God: how turn you again to the weak and needy elements, which you desire to serve again?

dourh@Galatians:4:13 @ And you know, how through infirmity of the flesh, I preached the gospel to you heretofore: and your temptation in my flesh,

dourh@Galatians:4:15 @ Where is then your blessedness? For I bear you witness, that, if it could be done, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and would have given them to me.

dourh@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, have you not read the law?

dourh@Galatians:4:23 @ But he who was of the bondwoman, was born according to the flesh: but he of the free woman, was by promise.

dourh@Galatians:4:24 @ Which things are said by an allegory. For these are the two testaments. The one from mount Sina, engendering unto bondage; which is Agar:

dourh@Galatians:4:25 @ For Sina is a mountain in Arabia, which hath affinity to that Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.

dourh@Galatians:4:29 @ But as then he, that was born according to the flesh, persecuted him that was after the spirit; so also it is now.

dourh@Galatians:5:3 @ And I testify again to every man circumcising himself, that he is a debtor to the whole law.

dourh@Galatians:5:13 @ For you, brethren, have been called unto liberty: only make not liberty an occasion to the flesh, but by charity of the spirit serve one another.

dourh@Galatians:5:17 @ For the flesh lusteth against the spirit: and the spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary one to another: so that you do not the things that you would.

dourh@Galatians:5:21 @ Envies, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like. Of the which I foretell you, as I have foretold to you, that they who do such things shall not obtain the kingdom of God.

dourh@Galatians:6:3 @ For if any man think himself to be some thing, whereas he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

dourh@Galatians:6:6 @ And let him that is instructed in the word, communicate to him that instructeth him, in all good things.

dourh@Galatians:6:10 @ Therefore, whilst we have time, let us work good to all men, but especially to those who are of the household of the faith.

dourh@Galatians:6:11 @ See what a letter I have written to you with my own hand.

dourh@Galatians:6:12 @ For as many as desire to please in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer the persecution of the cross of Christ.

dourh@Galatians:6:13 @ For neither they themselves who are circumcised, keep the law; but they will have you to be circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

dourh@Galatians:6:14 @ But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ; by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.

dourh@Galatians:6:17 @ From henceforth let no man be troublesome to me; for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus in my body.

dourh@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, to all the saints who are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus.

dourh@Ephesians:1:2 @ Grace be to you, and peace from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@Ephesians:1:5 @ Who hath predestinated us unto the adoption of children through Jesus Christ unto himself: according to the purpose of his will:

dourh@Ephesians:1:6 @ Unto the praise of the glory of his grace, in which he hath graced us in his beloved son.

dourh@Ephesians:1:7 @ In whom we have redemption through his blood, the remission of sins, according to the riches of his grace,

dourh@Ephesians:1:9 @ That he might make known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure, which he hath purposed in him,

dourh@Ephesians:1:10 @ In the dispensation of the fulness of times, to re-establish all things in Christ, that are in heaven and on earth, in him.

dourh@Ephesians:1:11 @ In whom we also are called by lot, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things according to the counsel of his will.

dourh@Ephesians:1:16 @ Cease not to give thanks for you, making commemoration of you in my prayers,

dourh@Ephesians:1:17 @ That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and of revelation, in the knowledge of him:

dourh@Ephesians:1:19 @ And what is the exceeding greatness of his power towards us, who believe according to the operation of the might of his power,

dourh@Ephesians:1:21 @ Above all principality, and power, and virtue, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come.

dourh@Ephesians:2:2 @ Wherein in time past you walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of this air, of the spirit that now worketh on the children of unbelief:

dourh@Ephesians:2:5 @ Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together in Christ, (by whose grace you are saved,)

dourh@Ephesians:2:6 @ And hath raised us up together, and hath made us sit together in the heavenly places, through Christ Jesus.

dourh@Ephesians:2:7 @ That he might shew in the ages to come the abundant riches of his grace, in his bounty towards us in Christ Jesus.

dourh@Ephesians:2:11 @ For which cause be mindful that you, being heretofore Gentiles in the flesh, who are called uncircumcision by that which is called circumcision in the flesh, made by hands;

dourh@Ephesians:2:12 @ That you were at that time without Christ, being aliens from the conversation of Israel, and strangers to the testament, having no hope of the promise, and without God in this world.

dourh@Ephesians:2:15 @ Making void the law of commandments contained in decrees; that he might make the two in himself into one new man, making peace;

dourh@Ephesians:2:16 @ And might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, killing the enmities in himself.

dourh@Ephesians:2:17 @ And coming, he preached peace to you that were afar off, and peace to them that were nigh.

dourh@Ephesians:2:18 @ For by him we have access both in one Spirit to the Father.

dourh@Ephesians:3:2 @ If yet you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me towards you:

dourh@Ephesians:3:3 @ How that, according to revelation, the mystery has been made known to me, as I have written above in a few words;

dourh@Ephesians:3:5 @ Which in other generations was not known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit:

dourh@Ephesians:3:7 @ Of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which is given to me according to the operation of his power:

dourh@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, the least of all the saints, is given this grace, to preach among the Gentiles, the unsearchable riches of Christ,

dourh@Ephesians:3:9 @ And to enlighten all men, that they may see what is the dispensation of the mystery which hath been hidden from eternity in God, who created all things:

dourh@Ephesians:3:10 @ That the manifold wisdom of God may be made known to the principalities and powers in heavenly places through the church,

dourh@Ephesians:3:11 @ According to the eternal purpose, which he made, in Christ Jesus our Lord:

dourh@Ephesians:3:13 @ Wherefore I pray you not to faint at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

dourh@Ephesians:3:14 @ For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

dourh@Ephesians:3:16 @ That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened by his Spirit with might unto the inward man,

dourh@Ephesians:3:18 @ You may be able to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth, and length, and height, and depth:

dourh@Ephesians:3:19 @ To know also the charity of Christ, which surpasseth all knowledge, that you may be filled unto all the fulness of God.

dourh@Ephesians:3:20 @ Now to him who is able to do all things more abundantly than we desire or understand, according to the power that worketh in us;

dourh@Ephesians:3:21 @ To him be glory in the church, and in Christ Jesus unto all generations, world without end. Amen.

dourh@Ephesians:4:3 @ Careful to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

dourh@Ephesians:4:7 @ But to every one of us is given grace, according to the measure of the giving of Christ.

dourh@Ephesians:4:8 @ Wherefore he saith: Ascending on high, he led captivity captive; he gave gifts to men.

dourh@Ephesians:4:9 @ Now that he ascended, what is it, but because he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

dourh@Ephesians:4:11 @ And he gave some apostles, and some prophets, and other some evangelists, and other some pastors and doctors,

dourh@Ephesians:4:13 @ Until we all meet into the unity of faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the age of the fulness of Christ;

dourh@Ephesians:4:14 @ That henceforth we be no more children tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine by the wickedness of men, by cunning craftiness, by which they lie in wait to deceive

dourh@Ephesians:5:2 @ And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.

dourh@Ephesians:5:3 @ But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not so much as be named among you, as becometh saints:

dourh@Ephesians:5:4 @ Or obscenity, or foolish talking, or scurrility, which is to no purpose; but rather giving of thanks.

dourh@Ephesians:5:5 @ For know you this and understand, that no fornicator, or unclean, or covetous person (which is a serving of idols), hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

dourh@Philippians:1:12 @ Now, brethren, I desire you should know, that the things which have happened to me, have fallen out rather to the furtherance of the gospel:

dourh@Philippians:1:14 @ And many of the brethren in the Lord, growing confident by my bands, are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.

dourh@Philippians:1:17 @ And some out of contention preach Christ not sincerely: supposing that they raise affliction to my bands.

dourh@Philippians:3:11 @ If by any means I may attain to the resurrection which is from the dead.

dourh@Philippians:3:13 @ Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended. But one thing I do: forgetting the things that are behind, and stretching forth myself to those that are before,

dourh@Philippians:3:14 @ I press towards the mark, to the prize of the supernal vocation of God in Christ Jesus.

dourh@Philippians:3:15 @ Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded; and if in any thing you be otherwise minded, this also God will reveal to you.

dourh@Philippians:4:6 @ Be nothing solicitous; but in every thing, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God.

dourh@Philippians:4:11 @ I speak not as it were for want. For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, to be content therewith.

dourh@Philippians:4:12 @ I know both how to be brought low, and I know how to abound: (everywhere, and in all things I am instructed) both to be full, and to be hungry; both to abound, and to suffer need.

dourh@Philippians:4:14 @ Nevertheless you have done well in communicating to my tribulation.

dourh@Philippians:4:16 @ For unto Thessalonica also you sent once and again for my use.

dourh@Colossians:2:14 @ Blotting out the handwriting of the decree that was against us, which was contrary to us. And he hath taken the same out of the way, fastening it to the cross:

dourh@1Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace be to you and peace. We give thanks to God always for you all; making a remembrance of you in our prayers without ceasing,

dourh@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ For our gospel hath not been unto you in word only, but in power also, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much fulness, as you know what manner of men we have been among you for your sakes.

dourh@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ So that you were made a pattern to all that believe in Macedonia and in Achaia.

dourh@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For from you was spread abroad the word of the Lord, not only in Macedonia, and in Achaia, but also in every place, your faith which is towards God, is gone forth, so that we need not to speak any thing.

dourh@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves relate of us, what manner of entering in we had unto you; and how you turned to God from idols, to serve the living and true God.

dourh@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ And to wait for his Son from heaven (whom he raised up from the dead,) Jesus, who hath delivered us from the wrath to come.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For yourselves know, brethren, our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ But having suffered many things before, and been shamefully treated (as you know) at Philippi, we had confidence in our God, to speak unto you the gospel of God in much carefulness.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But as we were approved by God that the gospel should be committed to us: even so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God, who proveth our hearts.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For neither have we used, at any time, the speech of flattery, as you know; nor taken an occasion of covetousness, God is witness:

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Nor sought we glory of men, neither of you, nor of others. 7 Whereas we might have been burdensome to you, as the apostles of Christ: but we became little ones in the midst of you, as if a nurse should cherish her children:

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So desirous of you, we would gladly impart unto you not only the gospel of God, but also our own souls: because you were become most dear unto us.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For you remember, brethren, our labour and toil: working night and day, lest we should be chargeable to any of you, we preached among you the gospel of God.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses, and God also, how holily, and justly, and without blame, we have been to you that have believed:

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ We testified to every one of you, that you would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ Therefore, we also give thanks to God without ceasing: because, that when you had received of us the word of the hearing of God, you received it not as the word of men, but (as it is indeed) the word of God, who worketh in you that have believed.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and the prophets, and have persecuted us, and please not God, and are adversaries to all men;

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ Prohibiting us to speak to the Gentiles, that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always: for the wrath of God is come upon them to the end.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, being taken away from you for a short time, in sight, not in heart, have hastened the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.

dourh@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ For we would have come unto you, I Paul indeed, once and again: but Satan hath hindered us.

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ For which cause, forbearing no longer, we thought it good to remain at Athens alone:

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ And we sent Timothy, our brother, and the minister of God in the gospel of Christ, to confirm you and exhort you concerning your faith:

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ That no man should be moved in these tribulations: for yourselves know, that we are appointed thereunto.

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For even when we were with you, we foretold you that we should suffer tribulations, as also it is come to pass, and you know.

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this cause also, I, forbearing no longer, sent to know your faith: lest perhaps he that tempteth should have tempted you, and our labour should be made vain.

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now when Timothy came to us from you, and related to us your faith and charity, and that you have a good remembrance of us always, desiring to see us as we also to see you;

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanks can we return to God for you, in all the joy wherewith we rejoice for you before our God,

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ Night and day more abundantly praying that we may see your face, and may accomplish those things that are wanting to your faith?

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you.

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ And may the Lord multiply you, and make you abound in charity towards one another, and towards all men: as we do also towards you,

dourh@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ To confirm your hearts without blame, in holiness, before God and our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, with all his saints. Amen.

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ For the rest therefore, brethren, we pray and beseech you in the Lord Jesus, that as you have received from us, how you ought to walk, and to please God, so also you would walk, that you may abound the more.

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:2 @ For you know what precepts I have given to you by the Lord Jesus.

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour:

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ And that no man overreach, nor circumvent his brother in business: because the Lord is the avenger of all these things, as we have told you before, and have testified.

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto sanctification.

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But as touching the charity of brotherhood, we have no need to write to you: for yourselves have learned of God to love one another.

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:10 @ For indeed you do it towards all the brethren in all Macedonia. But we entreat you, brethren, that you abound more:

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ And that you use your endeavour to be quiet, and that you do your own business, and work with your own hands, as we commanded you: and that you walk honestly towards them that are without; and that you want nothing of any man's.

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For this we say unto you in the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who remain unto the coming of the Lord, shall not prevent them who have slept.

dourh@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ Then we who are alive, who are left, shall be taken up together with them in the clouds to meet Christ, into the air, and so shall we be always with the Lord.

dourh@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But of the times and moments, brethren, you need not, that we should write to you;

dourh@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God hath not appointed us unto wrath, but unto the purchasing of salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

dourh@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ Who died for us; that, whether we watch or sleep, we may live together with him.

dourh@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ And we beseech you, brethren, to know them who labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you:

dourh@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ And we beseech you, brethren, rebuke the unquiet, comfort the feeble minded, support the weak, be patient towards all men.

dourh@1Thessalonians:5:15 @ See that none render evil for evil to any man; but ever follow that which is good towards each other, and towards all men.

dourh@1Thessalonians:5:27 @ I charge you by the Lord, that this epistle be read to all the holy brethren.

dourh@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, and Sylvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@2Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace unto you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you towards each other, aboundeth:

dourh@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ Seeing it is a just thing with God to repay tribulation to them that trouble you:

dourh@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ And to you who are troubled, rest with us when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven, with the angels of his power:

dourh@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ In a flame of fire, giving vengeance to them who know not God, and who obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be made wonderful in all them who have believed; because our testimony was believed upon you in that day.

dourh@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ That the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God, and of the Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ And we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and of our gathering together unto him:

dourh@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Remember you not, that when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

dourh@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ Whose coming is according to the working of Satan, in all power, and signs, and lying wonders,

dourh@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ And in all seduction of iniquity to them that perish; because they receive not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Therefore God shall send them the operation of error, to believe lying:

dourh@2Thessalonians:2:11 @ That all may be judged who have not believed the truth, but have consented to iniquity.

dourh@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ But we ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, beloved of God, for that God hath chosen you firstfruits unto salvation, in sanctification of the spirit, and faith of the truth:

dourh@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ Whereunto also he hath called you by our gospel, unto the purchasing of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ And we charge you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother walking disorderly, and not according to the tradition which they have received of us.

dourh@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For yourselves know how you ought to imitate us: for we were not disorderly among you;

dourh@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ Neither did we eat any man's bread for nothing, but in labour and in toil we worked night and day, lest we should be chargeable to any of you.

dourh@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ Not as if we had not power: but that we might give ourselves a pattern unto you, to imitate us.

dourh@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For also when we were with you, this we declared to you: that, if any man will not work, neither let him eat.

dourh@Hebrews:1:1 @ God, who, at sundry times and in divers manners, spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, last of all,

dourh@Hebrews:1:2 @ In these days hath spoken to us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the world.

dourh@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to which of the angels hath he said at any time, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

dourh@Hebrews:1:6 @ And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith: And let all the angels of God adore him.

dourh@Hebrews:1:7 @ And to the angels indeed he saith: He that maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.

dourh@Hebrews:1:8 @ But to the Son: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of justice is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

dourh@Hebrews:1:13 @ But to which of the angels said he at any time: Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?

dourh@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are they not all ministering spirits, sent to minister for them, who shall receive the inheritance of salvation?

dourh@Hebrews:2:1 @ Therefore ought we more diligently to observe the things which we have heard, lest perhaps we should let them slip.

dourh@Hebrews:2:3 @ How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? which having begun to be declared by the Lord, was confirmed unto us by them that heard him.

dourh@Hebrews:2:4 @ God also bearing them witness by signs, and wonders, and divers miracles, and distributions of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will.

dourh@Hebrews:2:5 @ For God hath not subjected unto angels the world to come, whereof we speak.

dourh@Hebrews:2:8 @ Thou hast subjected all things under his feet. For in that he hath subjected all things to him, he left nothing not subject to him. But now we see not as yet all things subject to him.

dourh@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, who had brought many children into glory, to perfect the author of their salvation, by his passion.

dourh@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both he that sanctifieth, and they who are sanctified, are all of one. For which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren, saying:

dourh@Hebrews:2:12 @ I will declare thy name to my brethren; in the midst of the church will I praise thee.

dourh@Hebrews:2:14 @ Therefore because the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner hath been partaker of the same: that, through death, he might destroy him who had the empire of death, that is to say, the devil:

dourh@Hebrews:2:15 @ And might deliver them, who through the fear of death were all their lifetime subject to servitude.

dourh@Hebrews:2:17 @ Wherefore it behoved him in all things to be made like unto his brethren, that he might become a merciful and faithful priest before God, that he might be a propitiation for the sins of the people.

dourh@Hebrews:2:18 @ For in that, wherein he himself hath suffered and been tempted, he is able to succour them also that are tempted.

dourh@Hebrews:3:2 @ Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house.

dourh@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:

dourh@Hebrews:3:6 @ But Christ as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.

dourh@Hebrews:3:7 @ Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: To day if you shall hear his voice,

dourh@Hebrews:3:11 @ As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest.

dourh@Hebrews:3:12 @ Take heed, brethren, lest perhaps there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, to depart from the living God.

dourh@Hebrews:3:13 @ But exhort one another every day, whilst it is called to day, that none of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

dourh@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we are made partakers of Christ: yet so, if we hold the beginning of his substance firm unto the end.

dourh@Hebrews:3:15 @ While it is said, To day if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in that provocation.

dourh@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did he swear, that they should not enter into his rest: but to them that were incredulous?

dourh@Hebrews:4:1 @ Let us fear therefore lest the promise being left of entering into his rest, any of you should be thought to be wanting.

dourh@Hebrews:4:2 @ For unto us also it hath been declared, in like manner as unto them. But the word of hearing did not profit them, not being mixed with faith of those things they heard.

dourh@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we, who have believed, shall enter into rest; as he said: As I have sworn in my wrath; If they shall enter into my rest; and this indeed when the works from the foundation of the world were finished.

dourh@Hebrews:4:5 @ And in this place again: If they shall enter into my rest.

dourh@Hebrews:4:6 @ Seeing then it remaineth that some are to enter into it, and they, to whom it was first preached, did not enter because of unbelief:

dourh@Hebrews:4:7 @ Again he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time, as it is above said: To day if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

dourh@Hebrews:4:10 @ For he that is entered into his rest, the same also hath rested from his works, as God did from his.

dourh@Hebrews:4:11 @ Let us hasten therefore to enter into that rest; lest any man fall into the same example of unbelief.

dourh@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is living and effectual, and more piercing than any two edged sword; and reaching unto the division of the soul and the spirit, of the joints also and the marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

dourh@Hebrews:4:13 @ Neither is there any creature invisible in his sight: but all things are naked and open to his eyes, to whom our speech is.

dourh@Hebrews:4:14 @ Having therefore a great high priest that hath passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God: let us hold fast our confession.

dourh@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us go therefore with confidence to the throne of grace: that we may obtain mercy, and find grace in seasonable aid.

dourh@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest taken from among men, is ordained for men in the things that appertain to God, that he may offer up gifts and sacrifices for sins:

dourh@Hebrews:5:3 @ And therefore he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.

dourh@Hebrews:5:4 @ Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was.

dourh@Hebrews:5:5 @ So Christ also did not glorify himself, that he might be made a high priest: but he that said unto him: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

dourh@Hebrews:5:6 @ As he saith also in another place: Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedech.

dourh@Hebrews:5:7 @ Who in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offering up prayers and supplications to him that was able to save him from death, was heard for his reverence.

dourh@Hebrews:5:9 @ And being consummated, he became, to all that obey him, the cause of eternal salvation.

dourh@Hebrews:5:10 @ Called by God a high priest according to the order of Melchisedech.

dourh@Hebrews:5:11 @ Of whom we have much to say, and hard to be intelligibly uttered: because you are become weak to hear.

dourh@Hebrews:5:12 @ For whereas for the time you ought to be masters, you have need to be taught again what are the first elements of the words of God: and you are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

dourh@Hebrews:5:14 @ But strong meat is for the perfect; for them who by custom have their senses exercised to the discerning of good and evil.

dourh@Hebrews:6:1 @ Wherefore leaving the word of the beginning of Christ, let us go on to things more perfect, not laying again the foundation of penance from dead works, and of faith towards God,

dourh@Hebrews:6:5 @ Have moreover tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,

dourh@Hebrews:6:6 @ And are fallen away: to be renewed again to penance, crucifying again to themselves the Son of God, and making him a mockery.

dourh@Hebrews:6:8 @ But that which bringeth forth thorns and briers, is reprobate, and very near unto a curse, whose end is to be burnt.

dourh@Hebrews:6:9 @ But, my dearly beloved, we trust better things of you, and nearer to salvation; though we speak thus.

dourh@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not unjust, that he should forget your work, and the love which you have shewn in his name, you who have ministered, and do minister to the saints.

dourh@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire that every one of you shew forth the same carefulness to the accomplishing of hope unto the end:

dourh@Hebrews:6:13 @ For God making promise to Abraham, because he had no one greater by whom he might swear, swore by himself,

dourh@Hebrews:6:17 @ Wherein God, meaning more abundantly to shew to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed an oath:

dourh@Hebrews:6:18 @ That by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have the strongest comfort, who have fled for refuge to hold fast the hope set before us.

dourh@Hebrews:6:20 @ Where the forerunner Jesus is entered for us, made a high priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech.

dourh@Hebrews:7:2 @ To whom also Abraham divided the tithes of all: who first indeed by interpretation, is king of justice: and then also king of Salem, that is, king of peace:

dourh@Hebrews:7:3 @ Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but likened unto the Son of God, continueth a priest for ever.

dourh@Hebrews:7:4 @ Now consider how great this man is, to whom also Abraham the patriarch gave tithes out of the principal things.

dourh@Hebrews:7:5 @ And indeed they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is to say, of their brethren: though they themselves also came out of the loins of Abraham.

dourh@Hebrews:7:11 @ If then perfection was by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchisedech, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?

dourh@Hebrews:7:15 @ And it is yet far more evident: if according to the similitude of Melchisedech there ariseth another priest,

dourh@Hebrews:7:16 @ Who is made not according to the law of a carnal commandment, but according to the power of an indissoluble life:

dourh@Hebrews:7:17 @ For he testifieth: Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedech.

dourh@Hebrews:7:19 @ (For the law brought nothing to perfection,) but a bringing in of a better hope, by which we draw nigh to God.

dourh@Hebrews:7:21 @ But this with an oath, by him that said unto him: The Lord hath sworn, and he will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever.)

dourh@Hebrews:7:23 @ And the others indeed were made many priests, because by reason of death they were not suffered to continue:

dourh@Hebrews:7:25 @ Whereby he is able also to save for ever them that come to God by him; always living to make intercession for us.

dourh@Hebrews:7:27 @ Who needeth not daily (as the other priests) to offer sacrifices first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, in offering himself.

dourh@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is necessary that he also should have some thing to offer.

dourh@Hebrews:8:4 @ If then he were on earth, he would not be a priest: seeing that there would be others to offer gifts according to the law,

dourh@Hebrews:8:5 @ Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things. As it was answered to Moses, when he was to finish the tabernacle: See (saith he) that thou make all things according to the pattern which was shewn thee on the mount.

dourh@Hebrews:8:6 @ But now he hath obtained a better ministry, by how much also he is a mediator of a better testament, which is established on better promises.

dourh@Hebrews:8:8 @ For finding fault with them, he saith: Behold, the days shall come, saith the Lord: and I will perfect unto the house of Israel, and unto the house of Juda, a new testament:

dourh@Hebrews:8:9 @ Not according to the testament which I made to their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt: because they continued not in my testament: and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

dourh@Hebrews:8:10 @ For this is the testament which I will make to the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: I will give my laws into their mind, and in their heart will I write them: and I will be their God, and they shall be my people:

dourh@Hebrews:8:11 @ And they shall not teach every man his neighbour and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me from the least to the greatest of them:

dourh@Hebrews:8:12 @ Because I will be merciful to their iniquities, and their sins I will remember no more.

dourh@Hebrews:9:5 @ And over it were the cherubims of glory overshadowing the propitiatory: of which it is not needful to speak now particularly.

dourh@Hebrews:9:6 @ Now these things being thus ordered, into the first tabernacle the priests indeed always entered, accomplishing the offices of sacrifices.

dourh@Hebrews:9:7 @ But into the second, the high priest alone, once a year: not without blood, which he offereth for his own, and the people's ignorance:

dourh@Hebrews:9:8 @ The Holy Ghost signifying this, that the way into the holies was not yet made manifest, whilst the former tabernacle was yet standing.

dourh@Hebrews:9:9 @ Which is a parable of the time present: according to which gifts and sacrifices are offered, which can not, as to the conscience, make him perfect that serveth, only in meats and in drinks,

dourh@Hebrews:9:11 @ But Christ, being come an high priest of the good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hand, that is, not of this creation:

dourh@Hebrews:9:12 @ Neither by the blood of goats, or of calves, but by his own blood, entered once into the holies, having obtained eternal redemption.

dourh@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the blood of goats and of oxen, and the ashes of an heifer being sprinkled, sanctify such as are defiled, to the cleansing of the flesh:

dourh@Hebrews:9:14 @ How much more shall the blood of Christ, who by the Holy Ghost offered himself unspotted unto God, cleanse our conscience from dead works, to serve the living God?

dourh@Hebrews:9:15 @ And therefore he is the mediator of the new testament: that by means of his death, for the redemption of those trangressions, which were under the former testament, they that are called may receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

dourh@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a testament, the death of the testator must of necessity come in.

dourh@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a testament is of force, after men are dead: otherwise it is as yet of no strength, whilst the testator liveth.

dourh@Hebrews:9:19 @ For when every commandment of the law had been read by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,

dourh@Hebrews:9:20 @ Saying: This is the blood of the testament, which God hath enjoined unto you.

dourh@Hebrews:9:22 @ And almost all things, according to the law, are cleansed with blood: and without shedding of blood there is no remission.

dourh@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Jesus is not entered into the holies made with hands, the patterns of the true: but into heaven itself, that he may appear now in the presence of God for us.

dourh@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holies, every year with the blood of others:

dourh@Hebrews:9:26 @ For then he ought to have suffered often from the beginning of the world: but now once at the end of ages, he hath appeared for the destruction of sin, by the sacrifice of himself.

dourh@Hebrews:9:27 @ And as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this the judgment:

dourh@Hebrews:9:28 @ So also Christ was offered once to exhaust the sins of many; the second time he shall appear without sin to them that expect him unto salvation.

dourh@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the law having a shadow of the good things to come, not the very image of the things; by the selfsame sacrifices which they offer continually every year, can never make the comers thereunto perfect:

dourh@Hebrews:10:2 @ For then they would have ceased to be offered: because the worshippers once cleansed should have no conscience of sin any longer:

dourh@Hebrews:10:5 @ Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith: Sacrifice and oblation thou wouldest not: but a body thou hast fitted to me:

dourh@Hebrews:10:8 @ In saying before, Sacrifices, and oblations, and holocausts for sin thou wouldest not, neither are they pleasing to thee, which are offered according to the law.

dourh@Hebrews:10:9 @ Then said I: Behold, I come to do thy will, O God: he taketh away the first, that he may establish that which followeth.

dourh@Hebrews:10:13 @ From henceforth expecting, until his enemies be made his footstool.

dourh@Hebrews:10:15 @ And the Holy Ghost also doth testify this to us. For after that he said:

dourh@Hebrews:10:16 @ And this is the testament which I will make unto them after those days, saith the Lord. I will give my laws in their hearts, and on their minds will I write them:

dourh@Hebrews:10:19 @ Having therefore, brethren, a confidence in the entering into the holies by the blood of Christ;

dourh@Hebrews:10:20 @ A new and living way which he hath dedicated for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh,

dourh@Hebrews:10:24 @ And let us consider one another, to provoke unto charity and to good works:

dourh@Hebrews:10:25 @ Not forsaking our assembly, as some are accustomed; but comforting one another, and so much the more as you see the day approaching.

dourh@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much more, do you think he deserveth worse punishments, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath esteemed the blood of the testament unclean, by which he was sanctified, and hath offered an affront to the Spirit of grace?

dourh@Hebrews:10:30 @ For we know him that hath said: Vengeance belongeth to me, and I will repay. And again: The Lord shall judge his people.

dourh@Hebrews:10:31 @ It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

dourh@Hebrews:10:32 @ But call to mind the former days, wherein, being illuminated, you endured a great fight of afflictions.

dourh@Hebrews:10:33 @ And on the one hand indeed, by reproaches and tribulations, were made a gazingstock; and on the other, became companions of them that were used in such sort.

dourh@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you both had compassion on them that were in bands, and took with joy the being stripped of your own goods, knowing that you have a better and a lasting substance.

dourh@Hebrews:10:37 @ For yet a little and a very little while, and he that is to come, will come, and will not delay.

dourh@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not the children of withdrawing unto perdition, but of faith to the saving of the soul.

dourh@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is the substance of things to be hoped for, the evidence of things that appear not.

dourh@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a sacrifice exceeding that of Cain, by which he obtained a testimony that he was just, God giving testimony to his gifts; and by it he being dead yet speaketh.

dourh@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith it is impossible to please God. For he that cometh to God, must believe that he is, and is a rewarder to them that seek him.

dourh@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith he that is called Abraham, obeyed to go out into a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

dourh@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith also Sara herself, being barren, received strength to conceive seed, even past the time of age; because she believed that he was faithful who had promised,

dourh@Hebrews:11:13 @ All these died according to faith, not having received the promises, but beholding them afar off, and saluting them, and confessing that they are pilgrims and strangers on the earth.

dourh@Hebrews:11:14 @ For they that say these things, do signify that they seek a country. 15 And truly if they had been mindful of that from whence they came out, they had doubtless time to return.

dourh@Hebrews:11:16 @ But now they desire a better, that is to say, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he hath prepared for them a city.

dourh@Hebrews:11:18 @ (To whom it was said: In Isaac shall thy seed be called.)

dourh@Hebrews:11:19 @ Accounting that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Whereupon also he received him for a parable.

dourh@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith also of things to come, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau.

dourh@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and adored the top of his rod.

dourh@Hebrews:11:24 @ By faith Moses, when he was grown up, denied himself to be the son of Pharao's daughter;

dourh@Hebrews:11:25 @ Rather choosing to be afflicted with the people of God, than to have the pleasure of sin for a time,

dourh@Hebrews:11:26 @ Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasure of the Egyptians. For he looked unto the reward.

dourh@Hebrews:11:28 @ By faith he celebrated the pasch, and the shedding of the blood; that he, who destroyed the firstborn, might not touch them.

dourh@Hebrews:11:32 @ And what shall I yet say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, Barac, Samson, Jephthe, David, Samuel, and the prophets:

dourh@Hebrews:11:33 @ Who by faith conquered kingdoms, wrought justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

dourh@Hebrews:11:34 @ Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, recovered strength from weakness, became valiant in battle, put to flight the armies of foreigners:

dourh@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received their dead raised to life again. But others were racked, not accepting deliverance, that they might find a better resurrection.

dourh@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were cut asunder, they were tempted, they were put to death by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins, being in want, distressed, afflicted:

dourh@Hebrews:12:1 @ And therefore we also having so great a cloud of witnesses over our head, laying aside every weight and sin which surrounds us, let us run by patience to the fight proposed to us:

dourh@Hebrews:12:4 @ For you have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin:

dourh@Hebrews:12:5 @ And you have forgotten the consolation, which speaketh to you, as unto children, saying: My son, neglect not the discipline of the Lord; neither be thou wearied whilst thou art rebuked by him.

dourh@Hebrews:12:9 @ Moreover we have had fathers of our flesh, for instructors, and we reverenced them: shall we not much more obey the Father of spirits, and live?

dourh@Hebrews:12:10 @ And they indeed for a few days, according to their own pleasure, instructed us: but he, for our profit, that we might receive his sanctification.

dourh@Hebrews:12:11 @ Now all chastisement for the present indeed seemeth not to bring with it joy, but sorrow: but afterwards it will yield, to them that are exercised by it, the most peaceable fruit of justice.

dourh@Hebrews:12:15 @ Looking diligently, lest any man be wanting to the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up do hinder, and by it many be defiled.

dourh@Hebrews:12:16 @ Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau; who for one mess, sold his first birthright.

dourh@Hebrews:12:17 @ For know ye that afterwards, when he desired to inherit the benediction, he was rejected; for he found no place of repentance, although with tears he had sought it.

dourh@Hebrews:12:18 @ For you are not come to a mountain that might be touched, and a burning fire, and a whirlwind, and darkness, and storm,

dourh@Hebrews:12:19 @ And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words, which they that heard excused themselves, that the word might not be spoken to them:

dourh@Hebrews:12:20 @ For they did not endure that which was said: And if so much as a beast shall touch the mount, it shall be stoned.

dourh@Hebrews:12:22 @ But you are come to mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to the company of many thousands of angels,

dourh@Hebrews:12:23 @ And to the church of the firstborn, who are written in the heavens, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of the just made perfect,

dourh@Hebrews:12:24 @ And to Jesus the mediator of the new testament, and to the sprinkling of blood which speaketh better than that of Abel.

dourh@Hebrews:12:25 @ See that you refuse him not that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke upon the earth, much more shall not we, that turn away from him that speaketh to us from heaven.

dourh@Hebrews:13:4 @ Marriage honourable in all, and the bed undefiled. For fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

dourh@Hebrews:13:5 @ Let your manners be without covetousness, contented with such things as you have; for he hath said: I will not leave thee, neither will I forsake thee.

dourh@Hebrews:13:6 @ So that we may confidently say: The Lord is my helper: I will not fear what man shall do to me.

dourh@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember your prelates who have spoken the word of God to you; whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation,

dourh@Hebrews:13:8 @ Jesus Christ, yesterday, and to day; and the same for ever.

dourh@Hebrews:13:10 @ We have an altar, whereof they have no power to eat who serve the tabernacle.

dourh@Hebrews:13:11 @ For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the holies by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.

dourh@Hebrews:13:13 @ Let us go forth therefore to him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

dourh@Hebrews:13:14 @ For we have not here a lasting city, but we seek one that is to come.

dourh@Hebrews:13:15 @ By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise always to God, that is to say, the fruit of lips confessing to his name.

dourh@Hebrews:13:16 @ And do not forget to do good, and to impart; for by such sacrifices God's favour is obtained.

dourh@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your prelates, and be subject to them. For they watch as being to render an account of your souls; that they may do this with joy, and not with grief. For this is not expedient for you.

dourh@Hebrews:13:18 @ Pray for us. For we trust we have a good conscience, being willing to behave ourselves well in all things.

dourh@Hebrews:13:19 @ And I beseech you the more to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

dourh@Hebrews:13:20 @ And may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great pastor of the sheep, our Lord Jesus Christ, in the blood of the everlasting testament,

dourh@Hebrews:13:21 @ Fit you in all goodness, that you may do his will; doing in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen.

dourh@Hebrews:13:22 @ And I beseech you, brethren, that you suffer this word of consolation. For I have written to you in a few words.

dourh@James:1:1 @ James the servant of God, and of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

dourh@James:1:2 @ My brethren, count it all joy, when you shall fall into divers temptations;

dourh@James:1:5 @ But if any of you want wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men abundantly, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

dourh@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been proved, he shall receive a crown of life, which God hath promised to them that love him.

dourh@James:1:19 @ You know, my dearest brethren. And let every man be swift to hear, but slow to speak, and slow to anger.

dourh@James:1:21 @ Wherefore casting away all uncleanness, and abundance of naughtiness, with meekness receive the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

dourh@James:1:23 @ For if a man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass.

dourh@James:1:25 @ But he that hath looked into the perfect law of liberty, and hath continued therein, not becoming a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work; this man shall be blessed in his deed.

dourh@James:1:26 @ And if any man think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue, but deceiving his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

dourh@James:1:27 @ Religion clean and undefiled before God and the Father, is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation: and to keep one's self unspotted from this world.

dourh@James:2:2 @ For if there shall come into your assembly a man having a golden ring, in fine apparel, and there shall come in also a poor man in mean attire,

dourh@James:2:3 @ And you have respect to him that is clothed with the fine apparel, and shall say to him: Sit thou here well; but say to the poor man: Stand thou there, or sit under my footstool:

dourh@James:2:5 @ Hearken, my dearest brethren: hath not God chosen the poor in this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which God hath promised to them that love him?

dourh@James:2:8 @ If then you fulfil the royal law, according to the scriptures, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself; you do well.

dourh@James:2:9 @ But if you have respect to persons, you commit sin, being reproved by the law as transgressors.

dourh@James:2:12 @ So speak ye, and so do, as being to be judged by the law of liberty.

dourh@James:2:13 @ For judgment without mercy to him that hath not done mercy. And mercy exalteth itself above judgment.

dourh@James:2:14 @ What shall it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but hath not works? Shall faith be able to save him?

dourh@James:2:16 @ And one of you say to them: Go in peace, be ye warmed and filled; yet give them not those things that are necessary for the body, what shall it profit?

dourh@James:2:23 @ And the scripture was fulfilled, saying: Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him to justice, and he was called the friend of God.

dourh@James:3:2 @ For in many things we all offend. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man. He is able also with a bridle to lead about the whole body.

dourh@James:3:3 @ For if we put bits into the mouths of horses, that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body.

dourh@James:3:5 @ Even so the tongue is indeed a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold how small a fire kindleth a great wood.

dourh@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is placed among our members, which defileth the whole body, and inflameth the wheel of our nativity, being set on fire by hell.

dourh@James:3:8 @ But the tongue no man can tame, an unquiet evil, full of deadly poison.

dourh@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

dourh@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom, that is from above, first indeed is chaste, then peaceable, modest, easy to be persuaded, consenting to the good, full of mercy and good fruits, without judging, without dissimulation.

dourh@James:3:18 @ And the fruit of justice is sown in peace, to them that make peace.

dourh@James:4:5 @ Or do you think that the scripture saith in vain: To envy doth the spirit covet which dwelleth in you?

dourh@James:4:6 @ But he giveth greater grace. Wherefore he saith: God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

dourh@James:4:7 @ Be subject therefore to God, but resist the devil, and he will fly from you.

dourh@James:4:8 @ Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners: and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

dourh@James:4:9 @ Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy into sorrow.

dourh@James:4:12 @ There is one lawgiver, and judge, that is able to destroy and to deliver.

dourh@James:4:13 @ But who art thou that judgest thy neighbour? Behold, now you that say: To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and there we will spend a year, and will traffic, and make our gain.

dourh@James:4:17 @ To him therefore who knoweth to do good, and doth it not, to him it is sin.

dourh@James:5:1 @ Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl in your miseries, which shall come upon you.

dourh@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver is cankered: and the rust of them shall be for a testimony against you, and shall eat your flesh like fire. You have stored up to yourselves wrath against the last days.

dourh@James:5:4 @ Behold the hire of the labourers, who have reaped down your fields, which by fraud has been kept back by you, crieth: and the cry of them hath entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

dourh@James:5:5 @ You have feasted upon earth: and in riotousness you have nourished your hearts, in the day of slaughter.

dourh@James:5:6 @ You have condemned and put to death the Just One, and he resisted you not.

dourh@James:5:16 @ Confess therefore your sins one to another: and pray one for another, that you may be saved. For the continual prayer of a just man availeth much.

dourh@James:5:17 @ Elias was a man passible like unto us: and with prayer he prayed that it might not rain upon the earth, and it rained not for three years and six months.

dourh@James:5:20 @ He must know that he who causeth a sinner to be converted from the error of his way, shall save his soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins.

dourh@1Peter:1:1 @ Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers dispersed through Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, elect,

dourh@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy hath regenerated us unto a lively hope, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

dourh@1Peter:1:4 @ Unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that can not fade, reserved in heaven for you,

dourh@1Peter:1:5 @ Who, by the power of God, are kept by faith unto salvation, ready to be revealed in the last time.

dourh@1Peter:1:7 @ That the trial of your faith (much more precious than gold which is tried by the fire) may be found unto praise and glory and honour at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

dourh@1Peter:1:11 @ Searching what or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ in them did signify: when it foretold those sufferings that are in Christ, and the glories that should follow:

dourh@1Peter:1:12 @ To whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you they ministered those things which are now declared to you by them that have preached the gospel to you, the Holy Ghost being sent down from heaven, on whom the angels desire to look.

dourh@1Peter:1:14 @ As children of obedience, not fashioned according to the former desires of your ignorance:

dourh@1Peter:1:15 @ But according to him that hath called you, who is holy, be you also in all manner of conversation holy:

dourh@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you invoke as Father him who, without respect of persons, judgeth according to every one's work: converse in fear during the time of your sojourning here.

dourh@1Peter:1:25 @ But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel hath been preached unto you.

dourh@1Peter:2:2 @ As newborn babes, desire the rational milk without guile, that thereby you may grow unto salvation:

dourh@1Peter:2:4 @ Unto whom coming, as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen and made honourable by God:

dourh@1Peter:2:5 @ Be you also as living stones built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

dourh@1Peter:2:7 @ To you therefore that believe, he is honour: but to them that believe not, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:

dourh@1Peter:2:8 @ And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of scandal, to them who stumble at the word, neither do believe, whereunto also they are set.

dourh@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are a chosen generation, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people: that you may declare his virtues, who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

dourh@1Peter:2:11 @ Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, to refrain yourselves from carnal desires which war against the soul,

dourh@1Peter:2:13 @ Be ye subject therefore to every human creature for God's sake: whether it be to the king as excelling;

dourh@1Peter:2:14 @ Or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of the good:

dourh@1Peter:2:15 @ For so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

dourh@1Peter:2:18 @ Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.

dourh@1Peter:2:19 @ For this is thankworthy, if for conscience towards God, a man endure sorrows, suffering wrongfully.

dourh@1Peter:2:21 @ For unto this are you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow his steps.

dourh@1Peter:2:23 @ Who, when he was reviled, did not revile: when he suffered, he threatened not: but delivered himself to him that judged him unjustly.

dourh@1Peter:2:24 @ Who his own self bore our sins in his body upon the tree: that we, being dead to sins, should live to justice: by whose stripes you were healed.

dourh@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were as sheep going astray; but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.

dourh@1Peter:3:1 @ In like manner also let wives be subject to their husbands: that if any believe not the word, they may be won without the word, by the conversation of the wives.

dourh@1Peter:3:5 @ For after this manner heretofore the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:

dourh@1Peter:3:7 @ Ye husbands, likewise dwelling with them according to knowledge, giving honour to the female as to the weaker vessel, and as to the co-heirs of the grace of life: that your prayers be not hindered.

dourh@1Peter:3:10 @ For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile.

dourh@1Peter:3:12 @ Because the eyes of the Lord are upon the just, and his ears unto their prayers: but the countenance of the Lord upon them that do evil things.

dourh@1Peter:3:15 @ But sanctify the Lord Christ in your hearts, being ready always to satisfy every one that asketh you a reason of that hope which is in you.

dourh@1Peter:3:17 @ For it is better doing well (if such be the will of God) to suffer, than doing ill.

dourh@1Peter:3:18 @ Because Christ also died once for our sins, the just for the unjust: that he might offer us to God, being put to death indeed in the flesh, but enlivened in the spirit,

dourh@1Peter:3:19 @ In which also coming he preached to those spirits that were in prison:

dourh@1Peter:3:21 @ Whereunto baptism being of the like form, now saveth you also: not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the examination of a good conscience towards God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

dourh@1Peter:4:3 @ For the time past is sufficient to have fulfilled the will of the Gentiles, for them who have walked in riotousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and unlawful worshipping of idols.

dourh@1Peter:4:4 @ Wherein they think it strange, that you run not with them into the same confusion of riotousness, speaking evil of you.

dourh@1Peter:4:5 @ Who shall render account to him, who is ready to judge the living and the dead.

dourh@1Peter:4:6 @ For, for this cause was the gospel preached also to the dead: that they might be judged indeed according to men, in the flesh; but may live according to God, in the Spirit.

dourh@1Peter:4:9 @ Using hospitality one towards another, without murmuring,

dourh@1Peter:4:10 @ As every man hath received grace, ministering the same one to another: as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

dourh@1Peter:5:4 @ And when the prince of pastors shall appear, you shall receive a never fading crown of glory.

dourh@1Peter:5:5 @ In like manner, ye young men, be subject to the ancients. And do you all insinuate humility one to another, for God resisteth the proud, but to the humble he giveth grace.

dourh@1Peter:5:10 @ But the God of all grace, who hath called us into his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, will himself perfect you, and confirm you, and establish you.

dourh@2Peter:1:3 @ As all things of his divine power which appertain to life and godliness, are given us, through the knowledge of him who hath called us by his own proper glory and virtue.

dourh@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things be with you and abound, they will make you to be neither empty nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@2Peter:1:11 @ For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

dourh@2Peter:1:12 @ For which cause I will begin to put you always in remembrance of these things: though indeed you know them, and are confirmed in the present truth.

dourh@2Peter:1:13 @ But I think it meet as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance.

dourh@2Peter:1:14 @ Being assured that the laying away of this my tabernacle is at hand, according as our Lord Jesus Christ also hath signified to me.

dourh@2Peter:1:16 @ For we have not by following artificial fables, made known to you the power, and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ; but we were eyewitnesses of his greatness.

dourh@2Peter:1:17 @ For he received from God the Father, honour and glory: this voice coming down to him from the excellent glory: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

dourh@2Peter:1:19 @ And we have the more firm prophetical word: whereunto you do well to attend, as to a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

dourh@2Peter:2:3 @ And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you. Whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their perdition slumbereth not.

dourh@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but delivered them, drawn down by infernal ropes to the lower hell, unto torments, to be reserved unto judgment:

dourh@2Peter:2:6 @ And reducing the cities of the Sodomites, and of the Gomorrhites, into ashes, condemned them to be overthrown, making them an example to those that should after act wickedly.

dourh@2Peter:2:8 @ For in sight and hearing he was just: dwelling among them, who from day to day vexed the just soul with unjust works.

dourh@2Peter:2:9 @ The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly from temptation, but to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be tormented.

dourh@2Peter:2:10 @ And especially them who walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government, audacious, self willed, they fear not to bring in sects, blaspheming.

dourh@2Peter:2:12 @ But these men, as irrational beasts, naturally tending to the snare and to destruction, blaspheming those things which they know not, shall perish in their corruption,

dourh@2Peter:2:13 @ Receiving the reward of their injustice, counting for a pleasure the delights of a day: stains and spots, sporting themselves to excess, rioting in their feasts with you:

dourh@2Peter:2:14 @ Having eyes full of adultery and of sin that ceaseth not: alluring unstable souls, having their heart exercised with covetousness, children of malediction:

dourh@2Peter:2:16 @ But had a check of his madness, the dumb beast used to the yoke, which speaking with man's voice, forbade the folly of the prophet.

dourh@2Peter:2:17 @ These are fountains without water, and clouds tossed with whirlwinds, to whom the mist of darkness is reserved.

dourh@2Peter:2:18 @ For, speaking proud words of vanity, they allure by the desires of fleshly riotousness, those who for a little while escape, such as converse in error:

dourh@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, flying from the pollutions of the world, through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they be again entangled in them and overcome: their latter state is become unto them worse than the former.

dourh@2Peter:2:21 @ For it had been better for them not to have known the way of justice, than after they have known it, to turn back from that holy commandment which was delivered to them.

dourh@2Peter:2:22 @ For, that of the true proverb has happened to them: The dog is returned to his vomit: and, The sow that was washed, to her wallowing in the mire.

dourh@2Peter:3:1 @ Behold this second epistle I write to you, my dearly beloved, in which I stir up by way of admonition your sincere mind:

dourh@2Peter:3:2 @ That you may be mindful of those words which I told you before from the holy prophets, and of your apostles, of the precepts of the Lord and Saviour.

dourh@2Peter:3:7 @ But the heavens and the earth which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of the ungodly men.

dourh@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord delayeth not his promise, as some imagine, but dealeth patiently for your sake, not willing that any should perish, but that all should return to penance.

dourh@2Peter:3:11 @ Seeing then that all these things are to be dissolved, what manner of people ought you to be in holy conversation and godliness?

dourh@2Peter:3:12 @ Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of the Lord, by which the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with the burning heat?

dourh@2Peter:3:13 @ But we look for new heavens and a new earth according to his promises, in which justice dwelleth.

dourh@2Peter:3:15 @ And account the longsuffering of our Lord, salvation; as also our most dear brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, hath written to you:

dourh@2Peter:3:16 @ As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are certain things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.

dourh@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and unto the day of eternity. Amen.

dourh@1John:1:2 @ For the life was manifested; and we have seen and do bear witness, and declare unto you the life eternal, which was with the Father, and hath appeared to us:

dourh@1John:1:3 @ That which we have seen and have heard, we declare unto you, that you also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship may be with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

dourh@1John:1:4 @ And these things we write to you, that you may rejoice, and your joy may be full.

dourh@1John:1:5 @ And this is the declaration which we have heard from him, and declare unto you: That God is light, and in him there is no darkness.

dourh@1John:1:9 @ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all iniquity.

dourh@1John:2:1 @ My little children, these things I write to you, that you may not sin. But if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the just:

dourh@1John:2:6 @ He that saith he abideth in him, ought himself also to walk, even as he walked.

dourh@1John:2:7 @ Dearly beloved, I write not a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard.

dourh@1John:2:8 @ Again a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true both in him and in you; because the darkness is passed, and the true light now shineth.

dourh@1John:2:12 @ I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.

dourh@1John:2:13 @ I write unto you, fathers, because you have known him, who is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one.

dourh@1John:2:14 @ I write unto you, babes, because you have known the Father. I write unto you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.

dourh@1John:2:21 @ I have not written to you as to them that know not the truth, but as to them that know it: and that no lie is of the truth.

dourh@1John:2:26 @ These things have I written to you, concerning them that seduce you.

dourh@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of charity the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called, and should be the sons of God. Therefore the world knoweth not us, because it knew not him.

dourh@1John:3:2 @ Dearly beloved, we are now the sons of God; and it hath not yet appeared what we shall be. We know, that, when he shall appear, we shall be like to him: because we shall see him as he is.

dourh@1John:3:5 @ And you know that he appeared to take away our sins, and in him there is no sin.

dourh@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not, abideth in death.

dourh@1John:3:16 @ In this we have known the charity of God, because he hath laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

dourh@1John:3:18 @ My little children, let us not love in word, nor in tongue, but in deed, and in truth.

dourh@1John:3:21 @ Dearly beloved, if our heart do not reprehend us, we have confidence towards God:

dourh@1John:3:23 @ And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ: and love one another, as he hath given commandment unto us.

dourh@1John:4:1 @ Dearly beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits if they be of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

dourh@1John:4:9 @ By this hath the charity of God appeared towards us, because God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live by him.

dourh@1John:4:10 @ In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins.

dourh@1John:4:11 @ My dearest, if God hath so loved us; we also ought to love one another.

dourh@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen, and do testify, that the Father hath sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.

dourh@1John:4:16 @ And we have known, and have believed the charity, which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity, abideth in God, and God in him.

dourh@1John:5:4 @ For whatsoever is born of God, overcometh the world: and this is the victory which overcometh the world, our faith.

dourh@1John:5:11 @ And this is the testimony, that God hath given to us eternal life. And this life is in his Son.

dourh@1John:5:13 @ These things I write to you, that you may know that you have eternal life, you who believe in the name of the Son of God.

dourh@1John:5:14 @ And this is the confidence which we have towards him: That, whatsoever we shall ask according to his will, he heareth us.

dourh@1John:5:16 @ He that knoweth his brother to sin a sin which is not to death, let him ask, and life shall be given to him, who sinneth not to death. There is a sin unto death: for that I say not that any man ask.

dourh@1John:5:17 @ All iniquity is sin. And there is a sin unto death.

dourh@1John:5:18 @ We know that whosoever is born of God, sinneth not: but the generation of God preserveth him, and the wicked one toucheth him not.

dourh@2John:1:1 @ The ancient to the lady Elect, and her children, whom I love in the truth, and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth,

dourh@2John:1:5 @ And now I beseech thee, lady, not as writing a new commandment to thee, but that which we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.

dourh@2John:1:6 @ And this is charity, that we walk according to his commandments. For this is the commandment, that, as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in the same:

dourh@2John:1:7 @ For many seducers are gone out into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh: this is a seducer and an antichrist.

dourh@2John:1:8 @ Look to yourselves, that you lose not the things which you have wrought: but that you may receive a full reward.

dourh@2John:1:10 @ If any man come to you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into the house nor say to him, God speed you.

dourh@2John:1:11 @ For he that saith unto him, God speed you, communicateth with his wicked works.

dourh@2John:1:12 @ Having more things to write unto you, I would not by paper and ink: for I hope that I shall be with you, and speak face to face: that your joy may be full.

dourh@3John:1:1 @ The ancient to the dearly beloved Gaius, whom I love in truth.

dourh@3John:1:3 @ I was exceedingly glad when the brethren came and gave testimony to the truth in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth.

dourh@3John:1:4 @ I have no greater grace than this, to hear that my children walk in truth.

dourh@3John:1:6 @ Who have given testimony to thy charity in the sight of the church: whom thou shalt do well to bring forward on their way in a manner worthy of God.

dourh@3John:1:8 @ We therefore ought to receive such, that we may be fellow helpers of the truth.

dourh@3John:1:9 @ I had written perhaps to the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the pre-eminence among them, doth not receive us.

dourh@3John:1:12 @ To Demetrius testimony is given by all, and by the truth itself, yea and we also give testimony: and thou knowest that our testimony is true.

dourh@3John:1:13 @ I had many things to write unto thee: but I would not by ink and pen write to thee.

dourh@3John:1:14 @ But I hope speedily to see thee, and we will speak mouth to mouth. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee. Salute the friends by name.

dourh@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James: to them that are beloved in God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called.

dourh@Jude:1:2 @ Mercy unto you, and peace, and charity be fulfilled.

dourh@Jude:1:3 @ Dearly beloved, taking all care to write unto you concerning your common salvation, I was under a necessity to write unto you: to beseech you to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints.

dourh@Jude:1:4 @ For certain men are secretly entered in, (who were written of long ago unto this judgment,) ungodly men, turning the grace of our Lord God into riotousness, and denying the only sovereign Ruler, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

dourh@Jude:1:6 @ And the angels who kept not their principality, but forsook their own habitation, he hath reserved under darkness in everlasting chains, unto the judgment of the great day.

dourh@Jude:1:7 @ As Sodom and Gomorrha, and the neighbouring cities, in like manner, having given themselves to fornication, and going after other flesh, were made an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire.

dourh@Jude:1:11 @ Woe unto them, for they have gone in the way of Cain: and after the error of Balaam they have for reward poured out themselves, and have perished in the contradiction of Core.

dourh@Jude:1:12 @ These are spots in their banquets, feasting together without fear, feeding themselves, clouds without water, which are carried about by winds, trees of the autumn, unfruitful, twice dead, plucked up by the roots,

dourh@Jude:1:13 @ Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own confusion; wandering stars, to whom the storm of darkness is reserved for ever.

dourh@Jude:1:15 @ To execute judgment upon all, and to reprove all the ungodly for all the works of their ungodliness, whereby they have done ungodly, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against God.

dourh@Jude:1:16 @ These are murmurers, full of complaints, walking according to their own desires, and their mouth speaketh proud things, admiring persons for gain's sake.

dourh@Jude:1:18 @ Who told you, that in the last time there should come mockers, walking according to their own desires in ungodlinesses.

dourh@Jude:1:21 @ Keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, unto life everlasting.

dourh@Jude:1:24 @ Now to him who is able to preserve you without sin, and to present you spotless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, in the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,

dourh@Jude:1:25 @ To the only God our Saviour through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory and magnificence, empire and power, before all ages, and now, and for all ages of ages. Amen.

dourh@Revelation:1:1 @ The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to make known to his servants the things which must shortly come to pass: and signified, sending by his angel to his servant John,

dourh@2Macc:8:26 @ Neither shall they give them, whilst they are fighting, or furnish them with wheat, or arms, or money, or ships, as it hath seemed good to the Romans: and they shall obey their orders, without taking any thing of them.

dourh@2Macc:8:28 @ And there shall not be given to them that come to their aid, either wheat, or arms, or money, or ships, as it hath seemed good to the Romans: and they shall observe their orders without deceit.

dourh@2Macc:8:29 @ According to these articles did the Romans covenant with the people of the Jews.

dourh@2Macc:8:30 @ And if after this one party or the other shall have a mind to add to these articles, or take away anything, they may do it at their pleasure: and whatsoever they shall add, or take away, shall be ratified.

dourh@2Macc:8:31 @ Moreover concerning the evils that Demetrius the king hath done against them, we have written to him, saying: Why hast thou made thy yoke heavy upon our friends, and allies, the Jews?

dourh@2Macc:8:32 @ If therefore they come again to us complaining of thee, we will do them justice, and will make war against thee by sea and land.

dourh@2Macc:9:1 @ In the mean time when Demetrius heard that Nicanor and his army were fallen in battle, he sent again Bacchides and Alcimus into Judea; and the right wing of his army with them.

dourh@2Macc:9:2 @ And they took the road that leadeth to Galgal, and they camped in Masaloth, which is in Arabella: and they made themselves masters of it, and slew many people.

dourh@2Macc:9:3 @ In the first month of the hundred and fifty-second year they brought the army to Jerusalem:

dourh@2Macc:9:4 @ And they arose, and went to Berea with twenty thousand men, and two thousand horsemen.

dourh@2Macc:9:7 @ And Judas saw that his army slipped away, and the battle pressed upon him, and his heart was cast down: because he had not time to gather them together, and he was discouraged.

dourh@2Macc:9:8 @ Then he said to them that remained: Let us arise, and go against our enemies, if we may be able to fight against them.

dourh@2Macc:9:9 @ But they dissuaded him, saying: We shall not be able, but let us save our lives now, and return to our brethren, and then we will fight against them: for we are but few.

dourh@2Macc:9:11 @ And the army removed out of the camp, and they stood over against them: and the horsemen were divided into two troops, and the slingers, and the archers went before the army, and they that were in the front were all men of valour.

dourh@2Macc:9:13 @ And they also were on Judas' side, even they also cried out, and the earth shook at the noise of the armies: and the battle was fought from morning even unto the evening.

dourh@2Macc:9:14 @ And Judas perceived that the stronger part of the army of Bacchides was on the right side, and all the stout of heart came together with him:

dourh@2Macc:9:15 @ And the right wing was discomfited by them, and he pursued them even to the mount Azotus.

dourh@2Macc:9:19 @ And Jonathan and Simon took Judas their brother, and buried him in the sepulchre of their fathers in the city of Modin.

dourh@2Macc:9:23 @ And it came to pass after the death of Judas, that the wicked began to put forth their heads in all the confines of Israel, and all the workers of iniquity rose up.

dourh@2Macc:9:24 @ In those days there was a very great famine, and they and all their country yielded to Bacchides.

dourh@2Macc:9:26 @ And they sought out, and made diligent search after the friends of Judas, and brought them to Bacchides, and he took vengeance of them, and abused them.

dourh@2Macc:9:28 @ And all the friends of Judas came together, and said to Jonathan:

dourh@2Macc:9:29 @ Since thy brother Judas died, there is not a man like him to go forth against our enemies, Bacchides, and them that are the enemies of our nation.

dourh@2Macc:9:30 @ Now therefore we have chosen thee this day to be our prince, and captain in his stead to fight our battles.

dourh@2Macc:9:31 @ So Jonathan took upon him the government at that time, and rose up in the place of Judas his brother.

dourh@2Macc:9:32 @ And Bacchides had knowledge of it, and sought to kill him.

dourh@2Macc:9:33 @ And Jonathan and Simon his brother, knew it, and all that were with them: and they fled into the desert of Thecua, and they pitched by the water of the lake of Asphar,

dourh@2Macc:9:34 @ And Bacchides understood it, and he came himself with all his army over the Jordan on the sabbath day.

dourh@2Macc:9:35 @ And Jonathan sent his brother a captain of the people, to desire the Nabutheans his friends, that they would lend them their equipage, which was copious.

dourh@2Macc:9:36 @ And the children of Jambri came forth out of Madaba, and took John, and all that he had, and went away with them.

dourh@2Macc:9:37 @ After this it was told Jonathan, and Simon his brother, that the children of Jambri made a great marriage, and were bringing the bride out of Madaba, the daughter of one of the great princes of Chanaan, with great pomp.

dourh@2Macc:9:39 @ And they lifted up their eyes, and saw: and behold a tumult, and great preparation: and the bridegroom came forth, and his friends, and his brethren to meet them with timbrels, and musical instruments, and many weapons.

dourh@2Macc:9:40 @ And they rose up against them from the place where they lay in ambush, and slew them, and there fell many wounded, and the rest fled into the mountains, and they took all their spoils:

dourh@2Macc:9:41 @ And the marriage was turned into mourning, and the noise of their musical instruments into lamentation.

dourh@2Macc:9:42 @ And they took revenge for the blood of their brother: and they returned to the bank of the Jordan.

dourh@2Macc:9:43 @ And Bacchides heard it, and he came on the sabbath day even to the bank of the Jordan with a great power.

dourh@2Macc:9:44 @ And Jonathan said to his company: Let us arise, and fight against our enemies: for it is not now as yesterday, and the day before.

dourh@2Macc:9:45 @ And behold the battle is before us, and the water of the Jordan on this side and on that side, and banks, and marshes, and woods: and there is no place for us to turn aside.

dourh@2Macc:9:46 @ Now therefore cry ye to heaven, that ye may be delivered from the hand of your enemies. And they joined battle.

dourh@2Macc:9:47 @ And Jonathan stretched forth his hand to strike Bacchides, but he turned away from him backwards.

dourh@2Macc:9:48 @ And Jonathan, and they that were with him leaped into the Jordan, and swam over the Jordan to them:

dourh@2Macc:9:49 @ And there fell of Bacchides' side that day a thousand man: and they returned to Jerusalem,

dourh@2Macc:9:53 @ And he took the sons of the chief men of the country for hostages, and put them in the castle in Jerusalem in custody.

dourh@2Macc:9:54 @ Now in the year one hundred and fifty-three, the second month, Alcimus commanded the walls of the inner court of the sanctuary to be thrown down, and the works of the prophets to be destroyed: and he began to be destroyed: and he began to destroy.

dourh@2Macc:9:55 @ At that time Alcimus was struck: and his works were hindered, and his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak a word, nor give order concerning his house.

dourh@2Macc:9:56 @ And Alcimus died at that time in great torment.

dourh@2Macc:9:57 @ And Bacchides saw that Alcimus was dead: and he returned to the king, and the land was quiet for two years.

dourh@2Macc:9:60 @ And he arose to come with a great army: and he sent secretly letters to his adherents that were in Judea, to seize upon Jonathan, and them that were with him: but they could not, for their design was known to them.

dourh@2Macc:9:62 @ And Jonathan, and Simon, and they that were with him retired into Bethbessen, which is in the desert: and he repaired the breaches thereof, and they fortified it.

dourh@2Macc:9:63 @ And when Bacchides knew it, he gathered together all his multitude: and sent word to them that were of Judea.

dourh@2Macc:9:65 @ But Jonathan left his brother Simon in the city, and went forth into the country: and came with a number of men.

dourh@2Macc:9:66 @ And struck Odares, and his brethren, and the children of Phaseron in their tents, and he began to slay, and to increase in forces.

dourh@2Macc:9:69 @ And he was angry with the wicked men that had given him counsel to come into their country, and he slew many of them: and he purposed to return with the rest into their country.

dourh@2Macc:9:70 @ And Jonathan had knowledge of it, and he sent ambassadors to him to make peace with him, and to restore to him the prisoners.

dourh@2Macc:9:71 @ And he accepted it willingly, and did according to his words, and swore that the would do him no harm all the days of his life.

dourh@2Macc:9:72 @ And he restored to him the prisoners which he before had taken out of the land of Juda: and he returned and went away into his own country, and he came no more into their borders.

dourh@2Macc:9:73 @ So the sword ceased from Israel: and Jonathan dwelt in Machmas, and Jonathan began there to judge the people, and he destroyed the wicked out of Israel.

dourh@2Macc:10:1 @ Now in the hundred and sixtieth year Alexander the son of Antiochus, surnamed the Illustrious, came up and took Ptolemais, and they received him, and he reigned there.

dourh@2Macc:10:2 @ And king Demetrius heard of it, and gathered together an exceeding great army, and went forth against him to fight.

dourh@2Macc:10:3 @ And Demetrius sent a letter to Jonathan with peaceable words, to magnify him.

dourh@2Macc:10:6 @ And he gave him authority to gather together an army, and to make arms, and that he should be his confederate: and the hostages that were in the castle, he commanded to be delivered to him.

dourh@2Macc:10:7 @ And Jonathan came to Jerusalem, and read the letters in the hearing of all the people, and of them that were in the castle.

dourh@2Macc:10:8 @ And they were struck with great fear, because they heard that the king had given him authority to gather together an army.

dourh@2Macc:10:9 @ And the hostages were delivered to Jonathan, and he restored them to their parents.

dourh@2Macc:10:10 @ And Jonathan dwelt in Jerusalem, and began to build, and to repair the city.

dourh@2Macc:10:11 @ And he ordered workmen to build the walls, and mount Sion round about with square stones for fortification: and so they did.

dourh@2Macc:10:13 @ And every man left his place, and departed into his own country:

dourh@2Macc:10:15 @ And king Alexander heard of the promises that Demetrius had made Jonathan: and they told him of the battles, and the worthy acts that he, and his brethren had done, and the labours that they had endured.

dourh@2Macc:10:17 @ So he wrote a letter, and sent it to him according to these words, saying:

dourh@2Macc:10:18 @ King Alexander to his brother Jonathan, greeting.

dourh@2Macc:10:19 @ We have heard of thee, that thou art a man of great power, and fit to be our friend:

dourh@2Macc:10:21 @ Then Jonathan put on the holy vestment in the seventh month, in the year one hundred and threescore, at the feast day of the tabernacles: and he gathered together an army, and made a great number of arms.

dourh@2Macc:10:23 @ What is this that we have done, that Alexander hath prevented us to gain the friendship of the Jews to strengthen himself?

dourh@2Macc:10:24 @ I also will write to them words of request, and offer dignities, and gifts: that they may be with me to aid me.

dourh@2Macc:10:25 @ And he wrote to them in these words: King Demetrius to the nation of the Jews, greeting.

dourh@2Macc:10:27 @ Wherefore now continue still to keep fidelity towards us, and we will reward you with good things, for what you have done in our behalf.

dourh@2Macc:10:28 @ And we will remit to you many charges, and will give you gifts.

dourh@2Macc:10:29 @ And now I free you, and all the Jews from tributes, and I release you from the customs of salt, and remit the crowns, and the thirds of the seed:

dourh@2Macc:10:30 @ And the half of the fruit of trees, which is my share, I leave to you from this day forward, so that it shall not be taken of the land of Juda, and of the three cities that are added thereto out of Samaria and Galilee, from this day forth and for ever:

dourh@2Macc:10:32 @ I yield up also the power of the castle that is in Jerusalem, and I give it to the high priest, to place therein such men as he shall choose to keep it.

dourh@2Macc:10:35 @ And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.

dourh@2Macc:10:36 @ And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them as is due to all the king's forces, and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king:

dourh@2Macc:10:38 @ And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest:

dourh@2Macc:10:39 @ Ptolemais, and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places, that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things.

dourh@2Macc:10:40 @ And I give every year fifteen thousand sicles of silver out of the king's accounts, of what belongs to me:

dourh@2Macc:10:41 @ And all that is above, which they that were over the affairs the years before, had not paid, from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.

dourh@2Macc:10:42 @ Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to the priests that execute the ministry.

dourh@2Macc:10:43 @ And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.

dourh@2Macc:10:46 @ Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.

dourh@2Macc:10:47 @ And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.

dourh@2Macc:10:48 @ And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.

dourh@2Macc:10:51 @ And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:

dourh@2Macc:10:52 @ Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,

dourh@2Macc:10:54 @ Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.

dourh@2Macc:10:55 @ And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.

dourh@2Macc:10:56 @ And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.

dourh@2Macc:10:57 @ So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.

dourh@2Macc:10:58 @ And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.

dourh@2Macc:10:59 @ And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.

dourh@2Macc:10:60 @ And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.

dourh@2Macc:10:61 @ And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.

dourh@2Macc:10:63 @ And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.

dourh@2Macc:10:66 @ And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.

dourh@2Macc:10:67 @ In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.

dourh@2Macc:10:68 @ And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.

dourh@2Macc:10:69 @ And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,

dourh@2Macc:10:71 @ Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.

dourh@2Macc:10:72 @ Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:

dourh@2Macc:10:73 @ And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?

dourh@2Macc:10:74 @ Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.

dourh@2Macc:10:75 @ And they pitched their tents near Joppe, but they shut him out of the city: because a garrison of Apollonius was in Joppe, and he laid siege to it.

dourh@2Macc:10:76 @ And they that were in the city being affrighted, opened the gates to him: so Jonathan took Joppe.

dourh@2Macc:10:77 @ And Apollonius heard of it, and he took three thousand horsemen, and a great army.

dourh@2Macc:10:78 @ And he went to Azotus as one that was making a journey, and immediately he went forth into the plain: because he had a great number of horsemen, and he trusted in them. And Jonathan followed after him to Azotus, and they joined battle.

dourh@2Macc:10:81 @ But the people stood still, as Jonathan had commanded them: and so their horses were fatigued.

dourh@2Macc:10:83 @ And they that were scattered about the plain, fled into Azotus, and went into Bethdagon their idol's temple, there to save themselves.

dourh@2Macc:10:84 @ But Jonathan set fire to Azotus, and the cities that were around it, and took the spoils of them, and the temple of Dagon: and all them that were fled into it, he burnt with fire.

dourh@2Macc:10:86 @ And Jonathan removed his army from thence, and camped against Ascalon: and they went out of the city to meet him with great honour.

dourh@2Macc:10:87 @ And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with his people, having many spoils.

dourh@2Macc:10:88 @ And it came to pass: When Alexander the king heard these words, that he honoured Jonathan yet more.

dourh@2Macc:10:89 @ And he sent him a buckle of gold, as the custom is, to be given to such as are of the royal blood. And he gave him Accaron and all the borders thereof in possession.

dourh@2Macc:11:1 @ And the king of Egypt gathered together an army, like the sand that lieth upon the sea shore, and many ships: and he sought to get the kingdom of Alexander by deceit, and join it to his own kingdom.

dourh@2Macc:11:2 @ And he went out into Syria with peaceable words, and they opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law.

dourh@2Macc:11:3 @ Now when Ptolemee entered into the cities, he put garrisons of soldiers in every city.

dourh@2Macc:11:4 @ And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way.

dourh@2Macc:11:5 @ And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace.

dourh@2Macc:11:6 @ And Jonathan came to meet the king at Joppe with glory, and they saluted one another, and they lodged there.

dourh@2Macc:11:7 @ And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river, called Eleutherus: and he returned into Jerusalem.

dourh@2Macc:11:8 @ And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander.

dourh@2Macc:11:9 @ And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father.

dourh@2Macc:11:10 @ For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me.

dourh@2Macc:11:12 @ And he took away his daughter, and gave her to Demetrius, and alienated himself from Alexander, and his enmities were made manifest.

dourh@2Macc:11:13 @ And Ptolemee entered into Antioch, and set two crowns upon his head, that of Egypt, and that of Asia.

dourh@2Macc:11:15 @ And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle, and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight.

dourh@2Macc:11:16 @ And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted.

dourh@2Macc:11:17 @ And Zabdiel the Arabian took off Alexander's head, and sent it to Ptolemee.

dourh@2Macc:11:18 @ And king Ptolemee died the third day after: and they that were in the strong holds were destroyed by them that were within the camp.

dourh@2Macc:11:20 @ In those days Jonathan gathered together them that were in Judea, to take the castle that was in Jerusalem: and they made many engines of war against it.

dourh@2Macc:11:21 @ Then some wicked men that hated their own nation, went away to king Demetrius, and told him that Jonathan was besieging the castle.

dourh@2Macc:11:22 @ And when he heard it, he was angry: and forthwith he came to Ptolemais, and wrote to Jonathan, that he should not besiege the castle, but should come to him in haste, and speak to him.

dourh@2Macc:11:24 @ And he took gold, and silver, and raiment, and many other presents, and went to the king to Ptolemais, and he found favour in his sight.

dourh@2Macc:11:29 @ And the king consented: and he wrote letters to Jonathan of all these things to this effect.

dourh@2Macc:11:30 @ King Demetrius to his brother Jonathan, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.

dourh@2Macc:11:31 @ We send you here a copy of the letter, which we have written to Lasthenes our parent concerning you, that you might know it.

dourh@2Macc:11:32 @ King Demetrius to Lasthenes his parent, greeting.

dourh@2Macc:11:33 @ We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews who are our friends, and keep the things that are just with us, for their good will which they bear towards us.

dourh@2Macc:11:34 @ We have ratified therefore unto them all the borders of Judea, and the three cities, Apherema, Lydda, and Ramatha, which are added to Judea, out of Samaria, and all their confines, to be set apart to all them that sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them every year, and for the fruits of the land, and of the trees.

dourh@2Macc:11:35 @ And as for other things that belonged to us of the tithes, and of the tributes, from this time we discharge them of them: the saltpans also, and the crowns that were presented to us.

dourh@2Macc:11:36 @ We give all to them, and nothing hereof shall be revoked from this time forth and for ever.

dourh@2Macc:11:37 @ Now therefore see that thou make a copy of these things, and let it be given to Jonathan, and set upon the holy mountain, in a conspicuous place.

dourh@2Macc:11:38 @ And king Demetrius seeing that the land was quiet before him, and nothing resisted him, sent away all his forces, every man to his own place, except the foreign army, which he had drawn together from the islands of the nations: so all the troops of his fathers hated him.

dourh@2Macc:11:39 @ Now there was one Tryphon who had been of Alexander's party before: who seeing that all the army murmured against Demetrius, went to Emalchuel the Arabian, who brought up Antiochus the son of Alexander.

dourh@2Macc:11:40 @ And he pressed him much to deliver him to him, that he might be king in his father's place: and he told him all that Demetrius had done, and how his soldiers hated him. And he remained there many days.

dourh@2Macc:11:41 @ And Jonathan sent to king Demetrius, desiring that he would cast out them that were in the castle in Jerusalem, and those that were in the strong holds: because they fought against Israel.

dourh@2Macc:11:42 @ And Demetrius sent to Jonathan, saying: I will not only do this for thee, and for thy people, but I will greatly honour thee, and thy nation, when opportunity shall serve.

dourh@2Macc:11:43 @ Now therefore thou shalt do well if thou send me men to help me: for all my army is gone from me.

dourh@2Macc:11:44 @ And Jonathan sent him three thousand valiant men to Antioch: and they came to the king, and the king was very glad of their coming.

dourh@2Macc:11:45 @ And they that were of the city assembled themselves together, to the number of a hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have killed the king.

dourh@2Macc:11:46 @ And the king fled into the palace, and they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight.

dourh@2Macc:11:47 @ And the king called the Jews to his assistance: and they came to him all at once, and they all dispersed themselves through the city.

dourh@2Macc:11:48 @ And they slew in that day a hundred thousand men, and they set fire to the city, and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king.

dourh@2Macc:11:49 @ And they that were of the city saw that the Jews had got the city as they would: and they were discouraged in their minds, and cried to the king, making supplication, and saying:

dourh@2Macc:11:51 @ And they threw down their arms, and made peace, and the Jews were glorified in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realm, and were renowned throughout the kingdom, and returned to Jerusalem with many spoils.

dourh@2Macc:11:53 @ And he falsified all whatsoever he had said, and alienated himself from Jonathan, and did not reward him according to the benefits he had received from him, but gave him great trouble.

dourh@2Macc:11:55 @ And there assembled unto him all the hands which Demetrius had sent away, and they fought against Demetrius, who turned his back and fled.

dourh@2Macc:11:56 @ And Tryphon took the elephants, and made himself master of Antioch.

dourh@2Macc:11:57 @ And young Antiochus wrote to Jonathan, saying: I confirm thee in the high priesthood, and I appoint thee ruler over the four cities, and to be one of the king's friends.

dourh@2Macc:11:58 @ And he sent him vessels of gold for his service, and he gave him leave to drink in gold, and to be clothed in purple, and to wear a golden buckle:

dourh@2Macc:11:59 @ And he made his brother Simon governor from the borders of Tyre even to the confines of Egypt.

dourh@2Macc:11:60 @ Then Jonathan went forth and passed through the cities beyond the river: and all the forces of Syria gathered themselves to him to help him, and he came to Ascalon, and they met him honourably out of the city.

dourh@2Macc:11:61 @ And he went from thence to Gaza: and they that were in Gaza shut him out: and he besieged it, and burnt all the suburbs round about, and took the spoils.

dourh@2Macc:11:62 @ And the men of Gaza made supplication to Jonathan, and he gave them the right hand: and he took their sons for hostages, and sent them to Jerusalem: and he went through the country as far as Damascus.

dourh@2Macc:11:63 @ And Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come treacherously to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great army, purposing to remove him from the affairs of the kingdom:

dourh@2Macc:11:66 @ And they desired him to make peace, and he granted it them: and he cast them out from thence, and took the city, and placed a garrison in it.

dourh@2Macc:11:72 @ And Jonathan turned again to them to battle, and he put them to flight, and they fought.

dourh@2Macc:11:73 @ And they of his part that fled saw this, and they turned again to him, and they all with him pursued the enemies even to Cades to their own camp, and they came even thither.

dourh@2Macc:11:74 @ And there fell of the aliens in that day three thousand men: and Jonathan returned to Jerusalem.

dourh@2Macc:12:1 @ And Jonathan saw that the time served him, and he chose certain men and sent them to Rome, to confirm and to renew the amity with them:

dourh@2Macc:12:2 @ And he sent letters to the Spartans, and to other places according to the same form.

dourh@2Macc:12:3 @ And they went to Rome, and entered into the senate house, and said: Jonathan the high priest, and the nation of the Jews have sent us to renew the amity, and alliance as it was before.

dourh@2Macc:12:4 @ And they gave them letters to their governors in every place, to conduct them into the land of Juda with peace.

dourh@2Macc:12:5 @ And this is a copy of the letters which Jonathan wrote to the Spartans:

dourh@2Macc:12:6 @ Jonathan the high priest, and the ancients of the nation, and the priests, and the rest of the people of the Jews, to the Spartans, their brethren, greeting.

dourh@2Macc:12:7 @ There were letters sent long ago to Onias the high priest from Arius who reigned then among you, to signify that you are our brethren, as the copy here underwritten doth specify.

dourh@2Macc:12:10 @ Chose rather to send to you to renew the brotherhood and friendship, lest we should become strangers to you altogether: for there is a long time passed since you sent to us.

dourh@2Macc:12:11 @ We therefore at all times without ceasing, both in our festivals, and other days, wherein it is convenient, remember you in the sacrifices that we offer, and in our observances, as it is meet, and becoming to remember brethren.

dourh@2Macc:12:14 @ But we would not be troublesome to you, nor the rest of our allies and friends in these wars.

dourh@2Macc:12:16 @ We have chosen therefore Numenius the son of Antiochus, and Antipater the son of Jason, and have sent them to the Romans to renew with them the former amity and alliance.

dourh@2Macc:12:17 @ And we have commanded them to go also to you, and to salute you, and to deliver you our letters, concerning the renewing of our brotherhood.

dourh@2Macc:12:18 @ And now you shall do well to give us an answer hereto.

dourh@2Macc:12:19 @ And this is the copy of the letter which he had sent to Onias:

dourh@2Macc:12:20 @ Arius king of the Spartans to Onias the high priest, greeting.

dourh@2Macc:12:21 @ It is found in writing concerning the Spartans, and the Jews, that they are brethren, and that they are of the stock of Abraham.

dourh@2Macc:12:22 @ And now since this is come to our knowledge, you do well to write to us of your prosperity.

dourh@2Macc:12:23 @ And we also have written back to you: That our cattle, and our possessions are yours: and yours, ours. We therefore have commanded that these things should be told you.

dourh@2Macc:12:24 @ Now Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come again with a greater army than before to fight against him.

dourh@2Macc:12:25 @ So he went out from Jerusalem, and met them in the land of Amath: for he gave them no time to enter into his country.

dourh@2Macc:12:26 @ And he sent spies into their camp, and they came back and brought him word that they designed to come upon them in the night.

dourh@2Macc:12:27 @ And when the sun was set, Jonathan commanded his men to watch, and to be in arms all night long ready to fight, and he set sentinels round about the camp.

dourh@2Macc:12:30 @ And Jonathan pursued after them, but overtook them not: for they had passed the river Eleutherus.

dourh@2Macc:12:31 @ And Jonathan turned upon the Arabians that are called Zabadeans: and he defeated them, and took the spoils of them.

dourh@2Macc:12:32 @ And he went forward, and came to Damascus, and passed through all that country.

dourh@2Macc:12:33 @ Simon also went forth, and came as far as Ascalon, and the neighbouring fortresses, and he turned aside to Joppe, and took possession of it,

dourh@2Macc:12:34 @ (For he heard that they designed to deliver the hold to them that took part with Demetrius,) and he put a garrison there to keep it.

dourh@2Macc:12:35 @ And Jonathan came back, and called together the ancients of the people, and he took a resolution with them to build fortresses in Judea,

dourh@2Macc:12:36 @ And to build up walls in Jerusalem, and raise a mount between the castle and the city, to separate it from the city, that so it might have no communication, and that they might neither buy nor sell.

dourh@2Macc:12:37 @ And they came together to build up the city: for the wall that was upon the brook towards the east was broken down, and he repaired that which is called Caphetetha:

dourh@2Macc:12:39 @ Now when Tryphon had conceived a design to make himself king of Asia, and to take the crown, and to stretch out his hand against king Antiochus:

dourh@2Macc:12:40 @ Fearing lest Jonathan would not suffer him, but would fight against him: he sought to seize upon him, and to kill him. So he rose up and came to Bethsan.

dourh@2Macc:12:41 @ And Jonathan went out to meet him with forty thousand men chosen for battle, and came to Bethsan.

dourh@2Macc:12:43 @ But received him with honour, and commended him to all his friends, and gave him presents: and he commanded his troops to obey him, as himself.

dourh@2Macc:12:44 @ And he said to Jonathan: Why hast thou troubled all the people, whereas we have no war?

dourh@2Macc:12:45 @ Now therefore send them back to their own houses: and choose thee a few men that may be with thee, and come with me to Ptolemais, and I will deliver it to thee, and the rest of the strong holds, and the army, and all that have any charge, and I will return and go away: for this is the cause of my coming.

dourh@2Macc:12:46 @ And Jonathan believed him, and did as he said: and sent away his army, and they departed into the land of Juda:

dourh@2Macc:12:47 @ But he kept with him three thousand men: of whom he sent two thousand into Galilee, and one thousand went with him.

dourh@2Macc:12:48 @ Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, they of Ptolemais shut the gates of the city, and took him: and all them that came in with him they slew with the sword.

dourh@2Macc:12:49 @ Then Tryphon sent an army and horsemen into Galilee, and into the great plain to destroy all Jonathan's company.

dourh@2Macc:12:50 @ But they, when they understood that Jonathan and all that were with him were taken and slain, encouraged one another, and went out ready for battle.

dourh@2Macc:12:51 @ Then they that had come after them, seeing that they stood for their lives, returned back.

dourh@2Macc:12:52 @ Whereupon they all came peaceably into the land of Juda. And they bewailed Jonathan, and them that had been with him, exceedingly: and Israel mourned with great lamentation.

dourh@2Macc:12:53 @ Then all the heathens that were round about them, sought to destroy them. For they said:

dourh@2Macc:12:54 @ They have no prince, nor any to help them: now therefore let us make war upon them, and take away the memory of them from amongst mem.

dourh@2Macc:13:1 @ Now Simon heard that Tryphon was gathering together a very great army, to invade the land of Juda, and to destroy it.

dourh@2Macc:13:2 @ And seeing that the people was in dread, and in fear, he went up to Jerusalem, and assembled the people:

dourh@2Macc:13:5 @ And now far be it from me to spare my life in any time of trouble: for I am not better than my brethren.

dourh@2Macc:13:6 @ I will avenge then my nation and the sanctuary, and our children, and wives: for all the heathens are gathered together to destroy us out of mere malice.

dourh@2Macc:13:9 @ Fight thou our battles, and we will do whatsoever thou shalt say to us.

dourh@2Macc:13:10 @ So gathering together all the men of war, he made haste to finish all the walls of Jerusalem, and he fortified it round about.

dourh@2Macc:13:11 @ And he sent Jonathan the son of Absalom, and with him a new army into Joppe, and he cast out them that were in it, and himself remained there.

dourh@2Macc:13:12 @ And Tryphon removed from Ptolemais with a great army, to invade the land of Juda, and Jonathan was with him in custody.

dourh@2Macc:13:14 @ And when Tryphon understood that Simon was risen up in the place of his brother Jonathan, and that he meant to join battle with him, he sent messengers to him,

dourh@2Macc:13:17 @ Now Simon knew that he spoke deceitfully to him, nevertheless he ordered the money, and the children to be sent: lest he should bring upon himself a great hatred of the people of Israel, who might have said:

dourh@2Macc:13:20 @ And after this Tryphon entered within the country, to destroy it: and they went about by the way that leadeth to Ador: and Simon and his army marched to every place whithersoever they went.

dourh@2Macc:13:21 @ And they that were in the castle, sent messengers to Tryphon, that he should make haste to come through the desert, and sent them victuals.

dourh@2Macc:13:22 @ And Tryphon made ready all his horsemen to come that night: but there fell a very great snow, and he came not into the country of Galaad.

dourh@2Macc:13:23 @ And when he approached to Bascama, he slew Jonathan and his sons there.

dourh@2Macc:13:24 @ And Tryphon returned, and went into his own country.

dourh@2Macc:13:25 @ And Simon sent, and took the bones of Jonathan his brother, and buried them in Modin, in the city of his fathers.

dourh@2Macc:13:27 @ And Simon built over the sepulchre of his father and of his brethren, a building lofty to the sight, of polished stone behind and before:

dourh@2Macc:13:30 @ This is the sepulchre that he made in Modin even unto this day.

dourh@2Macc:13:33 @ And Simon built up the strong holds of Judea, fortifying them with high towers, and great walls, and gates, and bars: and he stored up victuals in the fortresses.

dourh@2Macc:13:34 @ And Simon chose men and sent to king Demetrius, to the end that he should grant an immunity to the land: for all that Tryphon did was to spoil.

dourh@2Macc:13:35 @ And king Demetrius in answer to this request, wrote a letter in this manner:

dourh@2Macc:13:36 @ King Demetrius to Simon the high priest, and friend of kings, and to the ancients, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.

dourh@2Macc:13:37 @ The golden crown, and the palm, which you sent, we have received: and we are ready to make a firm peace with you, and to write to the king's chief officers to release you the things that we have released.

dourh@2Macc:13:39 @ And as for any oversight or fault committed unto this day, we forgive it, and the crown which you owed: and if any other thing were taxed in Jerusalem, now let it not be taxed.

dourh@2Macc:13:40 @ And if any of you be fit to be enrolled among ours, let them be enrolled, and let there be peace between us.

dourh@2Macc:13:42 @ And the people of Israel began to write in the instruments, and public records, The first year under Simon the high priest, the great captain and prince of the Jews.

dourh@2Macc:13:43 @ In those days Simon besieged Gaza, and camped round about it, and he made engines, and set them to the city, and he struck one tower, and took it.

dourh@2Macc:13:44 @ And they that were within the engine leaped into the city: and there was a great uproar in the city.

dourh@2Macc:13:45 @ And they that were in the city went up with their wives and children upon the wall, with their garments rent, and they cried with a loud voice, beseeching Simon to grant them peace.

dourh@2Macc:13:46 @ And they said: Deal not with us according to our evil deeds, but according to thy mercy.

dourh@2Macc:13:47 @ And Simon being moved, did not destroy them: but yet he cast them out of the city, and cleansed the houses wherein there had been idols, and then he entered into it with hymns, blessing the Lord.

dourh@2Macc:13:49 @ But they that were in the castle of Jerusalem were hindered from going out and coming into the country, and from buying and selling: and they were straitened with hunger, and many of them perished through famine.

dourh@2Macc:13:50 @ And they cried to Simon form peace, and he granted it to them: and he cast them out from thence, and cleansed the castle from uncleannesses.

dourh@2Macc:13:51 @ And they entered into it the three and twentieth day of the second month, in the year one hundred and seventy-one, with thanksgiving, and branches of palm trees, and harps, and cymbals, and psalteries, and hymns, and canticles, because the great enemy was destroyed out of Israel.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:4 @ Onias considering the danger of this contention, and that Apollonius, who was the governor of Celesyria and Phenicia, was outrageous, which increased the malice of Simon, went to the king,

dourh@AddDaniel:4:9 @ Besides this he promised also a hundred and fifty more, if he might have license to set him up a place for exercise, and a place for youth, and to entitle them, that were at Jerusalem, Antiochians.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:10 @ Which when the king had granted, and he had gotten the rule into his hands, forthwith he began to bring over his countrymen to the fashion of the heathens.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:12 @ For he had the boldness to set up, U under the very castle, a place of exercise, and to put all the choicest youths in brothel houses.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:14 @ Insomuch that the priests were not now occupied about the offices of the altar, but despising the temple and neglecting the sacrifices, hastened to be partakers of the games, and of the unlawful allowance thereof, and of the exercise of the discus.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:24 @ But he being recommended to the king, when he had magnified the appearance of his power, got the high priesthood for himself, by offering more than Jason by three hundred talents of silver.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:26 @ Then Jason, who had undermined his own brother, being himself undermined, was driven out a fugitive into the country of the Ammonites

dourh@AddDaniel:4:30 @ When these things were in doing, it fell out that they of Tharsus and Mallos raised a sedition, because they were given for a gift to Antiochis, the king's concubine.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:31 @ The king therefore went in all haste to appease them, leaving Andronicus, one of his nobles, for his deputy.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:32 @ Then Menelaus supposing that he had found a convenient time, having stolen certain vessels of gold out of the temple, gave them to Andronicus, and others he had sold at Tyre, and in the neighbouring cities.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:33 @ Which when Onias understood most certainly, he reproved him, keeping him- self in a safe place at Antioch beside Daphne.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:34 @ Whereupon Menelaus coming to Andronicus, desired him to kill Onias. And he went to Onias, and gave him his right hand with an oath, and (though he were suspected by him) persuaded him to come forth out of the sanctuary, and immediately slew him, without any regard to justice.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:36 @ And when the king was come back from the places of Cilicia, the Jews that were at Antioch, and also the Creaks went to him: complaining of the unjust murder of Onias.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:37 @ Antiochus therefore was grieved in his mind for Onias, and being moved to pity, shed tears, remembering the sobriety and modesty of the deceased.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:38 @ And being inflamed to anger, he commanded Andronicus to be stripped of his purple, and to be led about through all the city: and that in the same place wherein he had committed the impiety against Onias, the sacrilegious wretch should be put to death, the Lord repaying him his deserved punishment.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:39 @ Now when many sacrileges had been committed by Lysimachus in the temple by the counsel of Menelaus, and the rumour of it was spread abroad, the multitude gathered themselves together against Lysimachus, a great quantity of gold being already carried away.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:40 @ Wherefore the multitude making an insurrection, and their minds being filled with anger, Lysimachus armed about three thousand men, and began to use violence, one Tyrannus being captain, a man far gone both in age, and in madness.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:42 @ And many of them were wounded, and some struck down to the ground, but all were put to flight: and as for the sacrilegious fellow himself, they slew him beside the treasury.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:44 @ And when the king was come to Tyre, three men were sent from the ancients to plead the cause before him.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:45 @ But Menelaus being convicted, promised Ptolemee to give him much money to persuade the king to favour him.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:46 @ So Ptolemee went to the king in a certain court where he was, as it were to cool himself, and brought him to be of another mind:

dourh@AddDaniel:4:47 @ So Menelaus who was guilty of all the evil, was acquitted by him of the accusations: and those poor men, who, if they had pleaded their cause even before Scythians, should have been judged innocent, were condemned to death.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:49 @ Wherefore even the Tyrians being moved with indignation, were liberal towards their burial.

dourh@AddDaniel:4:50 @ And so through the covetousness of them that were in power, Menelaus continued in authority, increasing in malice to the betraying of the citizens.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:1 @ At the same time Antiochus prepared for a second journey into Egypt.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:2 @ And it came to pass that through the whole city of Jerusalem for the space of forty days there were seen horsemen running in the air, in gilded raiment, and armed with spears, like bands of soldiers.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:4 @ Wherefore all men prayed that these prodigies might turn to good.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:5 @ Now when there was gone forth a false rumour, as though Antiochus had been dead, Jason taking with him no fewer than a thousand men, suddenly assaulted the city: and though the citizens ran together to the wall, the city at length was taken, and Menelaus fled into the castle.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:7 @ Yet he did not gee the principality, but received confusion at tile end, for the reward of his treachery, and fled again into the country of the Ammonites.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:8 @ At the last having been shut up by Aretas the king of the Arabians, in order for his destruction, flying from city to city, hated by all men, as a forsaker of the laws, and execrable, as an enemy of his country and countrymen, he was thrust out into Egypt:

dourh@AddDaniel:5:9 @ And he that had driven many out of their country, perished in a strange land, going to Lacedemon, as if for kindred sake he should have refuge there:

dourh@AddDaniel:5:11 @ Now when these things were done, the king suspected that the Jews would forsake the alliance: whereupon departing out of Egypt with a furious mind, he took the city by force of arms.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:12 @ And commanded the soldiers to kill, and not to spare any that came in their way, and to go up into the houses slay.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:15 @ But this was not enough; he presumed also to enter into the temple, the most holy in all the world, Menelaus, that traitor to the laws, and to his country, being his guide.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:17 @ Thus Antiochus going astray in mind, did not consider that God was angry for a while, because of the sins of the habitants of the city: and therefore contempt had happened to the place:

dourh@AddDaniel:5:18 @ Otherwise had they not been involved in many sins, as Heliodorus, who was sent by king Seleucus to rob treasury, so this man also, as soon as had come, had been forthwith scourged, and put back from his presumption.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:21 @ So when Antiochus had taken away out of the temple a thousand and eight hundred talents, he went back in all haste to Antioch, thinking through pride, that he might now make the land navigable, and the sea passable on foot: such was the haughtiness of his mind.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:22 @ He left also governors to afflict the people: at Jerusalem, Philip, a Phrygian by birth, but in manners more barbarous than he that set him there:

dourh@AddDaniel:5:24 @ And whereas he was set against the Jews, he sent that hateful prince Apollonius with an army of two and twenty thousand men, commanding him to kill all that were of perfect age, and to sell the women and the younger sort.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:25 @ Who when he was come to Jerusalem, pretending peace, rested till the holy day of the sabbath: and then the Jews keeping holiday, he commanded his men to take arms.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:26 @ And he slew all that were come forth to see: and running through the city with armed men, he destroyed a very great multitude.

dourh@AddDaniel:5:27 @ But Judas Machabeus, who was the tenth, had withdrawn himself into a desert place, and there lived amongst wild beasts in the mountains with his company: and they continued feeding on herbs, that they might not be partakers of the pollution.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:1 @ But not long after the king sent a certain old man of Antioch, to compel the Jews to depart from the laws of their fathers and of God:

dourh@AddDaniel:6:2 @ And to defile the temple that was in Jerusalem, and to call it the temple of Jupiter Olympius: and that in Gazarim of Jupiter Hospitalis, according as they were that inhabited the place.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:3 @ And very bad was this invasion of evils and grievous to all.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:4 @ For the temple was full of the riot and revellings of the Gentiles: and of men lying with lewd women. And women thrust themselves of their accord into the holy places, and brought in things that were not lawful.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:6 @ And neither were the sabbaths kept, nor the solemn days of the fathers observed, neither did any man plainly profess himself to be a Jew.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:7 @ But they were led by bitter constraint on the king's birthday to the sacrifices: and when the feast of Bacchus was kept, they wore compelled to go about crowned with ivy in honour of Bacchus.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:8 @ And there went out a decree into the neighbouring cities of the Gentiles, by the suggestion of the Ptolemeans, that they also should act in like manner against the Jews, to oblige them to sacrifice:

dourh@AddDaniel:6:9 @ And whosoever would not conform themselves to the ways of the Gentiles, should be put to death: then was misery to be seen.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:10 @ For two women were accused to have circumcised their children: whom, when they had openly led about through the city with the infants hanging at their breasts, they threw down headlong from the walls.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:11 @ And others that had met together in caves that were near, and were keeping the sabbath day privately, being discovered by Philip, were burnt with fire, because they made a conscience to help themselves with their hands, by reason of the religious observance of the day.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:13 @ For it is a token of great goodness when sinners are not suffered to go on in their ways for a long time, but are presently punished.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:17 @ But let this suffice in a few words for a warning to the readers. And now we must come to the narration.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:18 @ Eleazar one of the chief of the scribes, a man advanced in years, and of a comely countenance, was pressed to open his mouth to eat swine's flesh.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:19 @ But he, choosing rather a most glorious death than a hateful life, went forward voluntarily to the torment.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:20 @ And considering in what manner he was come to ii;, patiently bearing, he determined not to do any unlawful things for the love of life.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:21 @ But they that stood by, being moved with wicked pity, for the old friendship they had with the man, taking him aside, desired that flesh might be brought, which it was lawful for him to eat, that he might make as if he had eaten, as the king had commanded of the flesh of the sacrifice:

dourh@AddDaniel:6:23 @ But he began to consider the dignity of his age, and his ancient years, and the inbred honour of his grey head, and his good life and conversation from a child: and he answered without delay, according to the ordinances of the holy law made by God, saying, that he would rather be sent into the other world.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:24 @ For it doth not become our age, said he, to dissemble: whereby many young persons might think that Eleazar, at the age of fourscore and ten years, was gone over to the life of the heathens:

dourh@AddDaniel:6:28 @ And I shall leave an example of fortitude to young men, if with a ready mind and constancy I suffer an honourable death, for the most venerable and most holy laws. And having spoken thus, he was forthwith carried to execution.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:29 @ And they that led him, and had been a little before more mild, were changed to wrath for the words he had spoken, which they thought were uttered out of arrogancy.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:30 @ But when he was now ready to die with the stripes, he groaned, and said: O Lord, who hast the holy knowledge, thou knowest manifestly that whereas I might be delivered from death, I suffer grevious pains in body: but in soul am well content to suffer these things be- cause I fear thee.

dourh@AddDaniel:6:31 @ Thus did this man die, leaving not only to young men, but also to the whole nation, the memory of his death for an example of virtue and fortitude.

dourh@AddDaniel:7:1 @ To came to pass also, that seven brethren, together with their mother, were apprehended, and compelled by the king to eat swine's flesh against the law, for which end they were tormented with whips and scourges.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:2 @ But one of them, who was the eldest, said thus: What wouldst thou ask, or learn of us? we are ready to die rather than to transgress the laws of God, received from our fathers.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:3 @ Then the king being angry commanded fryingpans, and brazen caldrons to be made hot: which forthwith being heated,

dourh@AddDaniel:8:4 @ He commanded to cut out the tongue of him that had spoken first: and the skin of his head being drawn off, to chop off also the extremities of his hands and feet, the rest of his brethren, and his mother, looking on.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:5 @ And when he was now maimed in all parts, he commanded him, being yet alive, to be brought to the Are, and to be fried in the fryingpan: and while he was suffering therein long torments, the rest, together with the mother, exhorted one another to die manfully,

dourh@AddDaniel:8:7 @ So when the first was dead after this manner, they brought the next to make him a, mocking stock: and when they had pulled off the skin of his head with the hair, they asked him if he would eat, before he were punished throughout the whole body in every limb.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:8 @ But he answered in his own language, and said: I will not do it. Wherefore Ire also in the next place, received the torments of the first:

dourh@AddDaniel:8:10 @ After him the third was made a mocking stock, and when he was required, he quickly put forth his tongue, and courageously stretched out his hands:

dourh@AddDaniel:8:12 @ So that the king, and they that were with him, wondered at the young man's courage, because he esteemed the torments as nothing.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:13 @ And after he was thus dead, they tormented the fourth in the like manner

dourh@AddDaniel:8:14 @ And when he was now ready to die, he spoke thus: It is better, being put to death by men, to look for hope from God, to be raised up again by him: for, as to thee thou shalt have no resurrection unto life.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:15 @ And when they had brought the fifth, they tormented him. But he looking upon the king,

dourh@AddDaniel:8:17 @ But stay patiently a while, and thou shalt see his great power, in what manner he will torment thee and thy seed.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:18 @ After him they brought the sixth, and he being ready to die, spoke thus: Be not deceived without cause: for we suffer these things for ourselves, having sinned against our God, and things worthy of admiration are done to us:

dourh@AddDaniel:8:19 @ But do not think that thou s escape unpunished, for that thou attempted to fight against God.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:20 @ Now the mother was to be ad above measure, and worthy to be remembered by good men, who beheld seven sons slain in the space of one day, and bore it with a good courage, for the hope that she had in God:

dourh@AddDaniel:8:21 @ And she bravely exhorted every o of them in her own language, being filled with wisdom: and joining a man's heart to a woman's thought,

dourh@AddDaniel:8:22 @ She said to them: I know not how you were formed in my womb: for I neither gave you breath, nor soul, nor life, neither did I frame the limbs of every one of you.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:23 @ But the Creator of the world, that formed the nativity of man, and that found out the origin of all, he will re- store to you again in his mercy, both breath and life, as now you despise your- selves for the sake of his laws.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:25 @ But when the young man was not moved with these things, the king called the mother, and counselled her to deal with the young man to save his life.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:27 @ So bending herself towards him, mocking the cruel tyrant, she said her own language: My son, have pi upon me, that bore thee nine months my womb, and save thee suck years, and nourished thee, and b thee up unto this age.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:29 @ So thou shalt not fear this tormentor, but being made a worthy partner with thy brethren, receive death, that in that mercy I may receive thee again with thy brethren.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:33 @ And though the Lord our God is angry with us a little while for our chastisement and correction: yet he will be reconciled again to his servants.

dourh@AddDaniel:8:37 @ But I, like my brethren, offer up my life and my body for the laws of our fathers: calling upon God to be speedily merciful to our nation, and that thou by torments and stripes mayst confess that he alone is God.

dourh@AddDaniel:9:1 @ But Judas Machabeus, and they that were with him, went privately into the towns: and calling together their kinsmen and friends, and taking unto them such as continued in the Jews' religion, they assembled six thousand men.

dourh@AddDaniel:9:8 @ Then Philip, seeing that the man gained ground by little and little, and that things for the most part succeeded prosperously with him, wrote to Ptolemee the governor of Celesyria and Phenicia, to send aid to the king's affairs.

dourh@AddDaniel:9:9 @ And he with all speed sent Nicanor the son of Patroclus, one of his special friends, giving him no fewer than twenty thousand armed men of different nations, to root out the whole race of the Jews, joining also with him Gorgias, a good soldier, and of great experience in matters of war.

dourh@AddDaniel:9:10 @ And Nicanor purposed to raise for the king the tribute of two thousand talents, that was to be given to the Romans, by making so much money of the captive Jews:

dourh@AddDaniel:11:3 @ And having purified the temple, they made another altar: and taking fire out of the fiery stones, they offered sacrifices after two years, and set forth incense, and lamps, and the leaves of proposition.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:4 @ And when they had done these things, they besought the Lord, lying prostrate on the ground, that they might no more fall into such evils; but if they should at any time sin, that they might be chastised by him more gently, and not be delivered up to barbarians and blasphemous men.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:5 @ Now upon the same day that the temple had been polluted by the strangers, on the very same day it was cleansed again, to wit, on the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:10 @ But now we will relate the acts of Eupator the son of that wicked Antiochus, abridging the account of the evils that happened in the wars.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:11 @ For when he was come to the crown. he appointed over the affairs of his realm one Lysias, general of the army of Phenicia and Syria.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:12 @ For Ptolemee that was called Macer, was determined to be strictly just to the Jews, and especially by reason of the wrong that had been done them, and to deal peaceably with them.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:13 @ But being accused for this to Eupator by his friends, and being oftentimes called traitor, because he had left Cyprus which Philometor had committed to him, and coming over to Antiochus the Illustrious, had revolted also from him, he put an end to his life by poison.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:15 @ And the Jews that occupied the most commodious hold, received those that were driven out of Jerusalem, and at- tempted to make war.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:16 @ Then they that were with Machabeus, beseeching the Lord by prayers to be their helper, made a strong attack upon the strong holds of the Idumeans:

dourh@AddDaniel:11:17 @ And assaulting them with great force, won the holds, killed them that came in the way, and slew altogether no fewer than twenty thousand.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:18 @ And whereas some were fled into very strong towers, having all manner of provision to sustain a siege,

dourh@AddDaniel:11:19 @ Machabeus left Simon and Joseph, and Zacheus, and them that were with them in sufficient number to besiege them, and departed to those expeditions which urged more.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:20 @ Now they that were with Simon, being led with covetousness, were persuaded For the sake of money by some that were in the towers: and taking seventy thousand didrachmas, let some of them escape.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:21 @ But when it was told Machabeus what was done, he assembled the rulers of the people, and accused those men that they had sold their brethren for money, having let their adversaries escape.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:22 @ So he put these traitors to death, and forthwith took the two towers.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:23 @ And having good success in arms and in all things he took in hand, he slew more than twenty thousand in the two holds.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:24 @ But Timotheus who before had been overcome by the Jews, having called together a multitude of foreign troops, and assembled horsemen out of Asia, came as though he would take Judea by force of arms.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:25 @ But Machabeus and they that were with him, when he drew near, prayed to the Lord, sprinkling earth upon their heads and girding their loins with hair- cloth,

dourh@AddDaniel:11:26 @ And lying prostrate at the foot of the altar, besought him to be merciful to them, and to be an enemy to their enemies, and an adversary to their adversaries, as the law saith.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:28 @ But as soon as the sun was risen both sides joined battle: the one part having with their valour the Lord for a surety o victory and success: but the other side making their rage their leader in battle.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:29 @ But when they were in the heat of the engagement there appeared to the enemies from heaven five men upon horses, comely with golden bridles, con- ducting the Jews:

dourh@AddDaniel:11:30 @ Two of whom took Machabeus between them, and covered him on every side with their arms, and kept him safe: but cast darts and fireballs against the enemy, so that they fell down, being both confounded with blindness, and filled with trouble.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:32 @ But Timotheus fled into Gazara a strong hold, where Chereas was governor.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:33 @ Then Machabeus, and they that were with him, cheerfully laid siege to the fortress four days.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:34 @ But they that were within, trusting to the strength of the place, blasphemed exceedingly, and cast forth abominable words.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:35 @ But when the fifth day appeared, twenty young men of them that were with Machabeus, inflamed in their minds because of the blasphemy, approached manfully to the wall, and pushing forward with fierce courage got up upon it.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:36 @ Moreover others also getting up after them, went to set Are to the towers and the gates, and to burn the blasphemers alive.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:37 @ And having for two days together pillaged and sacked the fortress, they killed Timotheus, who was found hid in a certain place: they slew also his brother Chereas, and Apollophanes.

dourh@AddDaniel:11:38 @ And when this was done, they blessed the Lord with hymns and thanksgiving, who had done great things in Israel, and given them the victory.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:2 @ Gathered together fourscore thousand men, and all the horsemen, and came against the Jews, thinking to take the city, and make it a habitation of the Gentiles:

dourh@AddDaniel:12:3 @ And to make a gain of the temple, as of the other temples of the Gentiles, and to set the high priesthood to sale every year:

dourh@AddDaniel:12:5 @ So he came into Judea, and approaching to Bethsura, which was in a narrow place, the space of five furlongs from Jerusalem, he laid siege to that fortress.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:6 @ But when Machabeus and they that were with him, understood that the strong holds were besieged, they and all the people besought the Lord with lamentations and tears, that he would send a good angel to save Israel.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:7 @ Then Machabeus himself, first taking his arms, exhorted the rest to expose themselves together with him, to the danger, and to succour their brethren.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:8 @ And when they were going forth together with a willing mind, there appeared at Jerusatem a horseman going before them in white clothing, with golden armour, shaking a spear.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:9 @ Then they all together blessed merciful Lord, and took great courage, being ready to break through not only men, but also the fiercest beasts, walls of iron.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:10 @ So they went on courageously, having a helper from Peaven, and the who shewed mercy to them.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:12 @ And put all the rest to flight: many of them being wounded, escaped naked: yea and Lysias himself fled away shamefully, and escaped.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:13 @ And as he was a man of understanding considering with himself, the loss he had suffered, and perceiving that the Hebrews could not be overcome, because they relied upon the help of the Almighty God, he sent to them:

dourh@AddDaniel:12:14 @ And promised that he would agree to all things that are just, and that he would persuade the king to be their friend.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:15 @ Then Machabeus consented to the request of Lysias, providing for the common Food in all things, and whatsoever Machabeus wrote to Lysias concerning the Jews, the king allowed of.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:16 @ For there were letters written to the Jews from Lysias, to this effect: Lysias to the people of the Jews, greeting.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:18 @ Therefore whatsoever things could be reported to the king I have represented to him: and he hath granted as much as the matter permitted.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:19 @ If therefore you will keep yourselves loyal in affairs, hereafter also I will endeavour to be a means of your good.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:20 @ But as concerning other particulars, I have given orders by word both to these, and to them that are sent by me, to commune with you.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:22 @ But the king's letter contained these words: King Antiochus to Lysias his brother, greeting.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:23 @ Our father being translated amongst the gods, we are desirous that they that are in our realm should live quietly, and apply themselves diligently to their own concerns,

dourh@AddDaniel:12:24 @ And we have heard that the Jews would not consent to my father to turn to the rites of the Greeks, but that they would keep to their own manner of living, and therefore that they request us to allow them to live after their own laws.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:25 @ Wherefore being desirous that this nation also should be at rest, we have ordained and decreed, that the temple should be restored to them, and that they may live according to the custom of their ancestors.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:26 @ Thou shalt do well therefore to send to them, and grant them peace, that our pleasure being known, they may be of good comfort, and look to their own affairs.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:27 @ But the king's letter to the Jews was in this manner: King Antiochus to the senate of the Jews, and to the rest of the Jews, greeting.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:29 @ Menelaus came to us, saying that you desired to come down to your countrymen, that are with us.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:30 @ We grant therefore a safe conduct to all that come and go, until the thirtieth day of the month of Xanthicus,

dourh@AddDaniel:12:32 @ And we have sent also Menelaus to speak to you.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:34 @ The Romans also sent them a letter, to this effect. Quintus Memmius, and Titus Manilius, ambassadors of the Romans, to the people of the Jews, greeting.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:36 @ But touching such things as he thought should be referred to the king, after you have diligently conferred among yourselves, send some one forthwith, that we may decree as it is convenient for you: for we are going to Antioch.

dourh@AddDaniel:12:37 @ And therefore make haste to write back, that we may know of what mind you are.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:1 @ When these covenants were made, Lyslas went to the king, and the Jews gave themselves to husbandry.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:2 @ But they that were behind, namely, Timotheus and Apollonius the son of Genneus, also Hieronymus, and Demophon, and besides them Nicanor the governor of Cyprus, would not suffer them to live in peace, and to be quiet.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:3 @ The men of Joppe also were guilty of this kind of wickedness: they desired the Jews who dwelt among them to go with their wives and children into the boats, which they had prepared, as though they had no enmity to them.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:4 @ Which when they had consented to, according to the common decree of the city, suspecting nothing, because of the peace: when they were gone forth into the deep, they drowned no fewer than two hundred of them.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:5 @ But as soon as Judas heard of this cruelty done to his countrymen, he commanded the men that were with him: and after having called upon God the just judge,

dourh@AddDaniel:13:8 @ But when he understood that the men of Jamnia also designed to do in like manner to the Jews that dwelt among them,

dourh@AddDaniel:13:10 @ And when they were now gone from thence nine furlongs, and were marching towards Timotheus, five thousand footmen and Ave hundred horsemen of the Arabians set upon them.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:11 @ And after a hard fight, in which by the help of God they got the victory, the rest of the Arabians being overcome, besought Judas for peace, promising to give him pastures, and to assist him in other things.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:12 @ And Judas thinking that they might be profitable indeed in many things, promised them peace, and after having joined hands, they departed to their tents.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:13 @ He also laid siege to a certain strong city, encompassed with bridges and walls, and inhabited by multitudes of different nations, the name of which is Casphin.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:14 @ But they that were within it, trusting in the strength of the walls, and the provision of victuals, behaved in a more negligent manner, and provoked Judas with railing and blaspheming, and uttering such words as were not to be spoken.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:16 @ And having taken the city by the will of the Lord, he made an unspeakable slaughter, so that a pool adjoining of two furlongs broad seemed to run with the blood of the slain.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:17 @ From thence they departed seven hundred and fifty furlongs, and came to Characa to the Jews that are called Tubianites.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:19 @ But Dositheus, and Sosipater, who were captains with Machabeus, slew them that were left by Timotheus in the hold, to the number of ten thousand men.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:21 @ Now when Timotheus had knowledge of the coming of Judas, he sent the women and children, and the other baggage before him into a fortress, called Carnion: for it was impregnable and hard to come at, by reason of the straitness of the places.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:22 @ But when the first band of Judas came in sight, the enemies were struck with fear, by the presence of God, who seeth all things, and they were put to flight one from another, so that they were often thrown down by their own companions, and wounded with the strokes of their own swords.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:24 @ And Timotheus himself fell into the hands of the band of Dositheus and Sosipater, and with many prayers he besought them to let him go with his life, because he had the parents and brethren of many of the Jews, who, by his death, might happen to be deceived.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:25 @ And when he had given his faith that he would restore them according to the agreement, they let him go without hurt, for the saving of their brethren.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:26 @ Then Judas went away to Carnion, where he slew five and twenty thousand persons.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:27 @ And after he had put to flight and destroyed these, he removed his army to Ephron, a strong city, wherein there dwelt a multitude of divers nations: and stout young men standing upon the walls made a vigorous resistance: and in this place there were many engines of war, and a provision of darts.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:28 @ But when they had invocated the Almighty, who with his power breaketh the strength of the enemies, they took the city; and slew five and twenty thou- sand of them that were within.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:29 @ From thence they departed to Scythopolis, which lieth six hundred furlongs from Jerusalem.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:31 @ They gave them thanks exhorting them to be still friendly to their nation, and so they came to Jerusalem, the feast of the weeks being at hand.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:35 @ But Dositheus, a horseman, one of Bacenor's band, a valiant man, took hold of Gorgias: and when he would have taken him alive, a certain horseman of the Thracians came upon him, and cut off his shoulder: and so Gorgias escaped to Maresa.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:36 @ But when they that were with Esdrin had fought long, and were weary, Judas called upon the Lord to be their helper, and leader of the battle:

dourh@AddDaniel:13:37 @ Then beginning in his own language, and singing hymns with a loud voice, he put Gorgias' soldiers to flight.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:38 @ So Judas having gathered together his army, came into the city Odollam: and when the seventh day came, they purified themselves according to the custom, and kept the sabbath in the place.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:39 @ And the day following Judas cam with his company, to take away the bodies of them that were slain, and to bury them with their kinsmen, in the sepulchres of their fathers.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:42 @ And so betaking themselves to prayers, they besought him, that the sin which had been committed might be forgotten. But the most valiant Judas exhorted the people to keep themselves from sin, forasmuch as they saw before their eyes what had happened, because of the sins of those that were slain.

dourh@AddDaniel:13:43 @ And making a gathering, he twelve thousand drachms of silver to Jerusalem for sacrifice to be offered for the sins of the dead, thinking well and religiously concerning the resurrection,

dourh@AddDaniel:13:44 @ (For if he had not hoped that the that were slain should rise again, it would have seemed superfluous and vain to pray for the dead,)

dourh@AddDaniel:13:46 @ It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:1 @ In the year one hundred and forty- nine, Judas understood that Antiochus Eupator was coming with a multitude against Judea,

dourh@AddDaniel:14:4 @ But the King of kings stirred up the mind of Antiochus against the sinner, and upon Lysias suggesting that he was the cause of all the evils, he commanded (as the custom is with them) that he should be apprehended and put to death in the same place.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:5 @ Now there was in that place a tower fifty cubits high, having a heap of ashes on every side: this had a prospect steep down.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:6 @ From thence he commanded the sacrilegious wretch to be thrown down into the ashes, all men thrusting him forward unto death.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:7 @ And by such a law it happened that Menelaus the transgressor of the law was put to death: not having so much as burial in the earth.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:8 @ And indeed very justly, for insomuch as he had committed many sins against the altar of God, the fire and ashes of which were holy: he was condemned to die in ashes.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:10 @ taste of the hardiness of the Jews, attempted to take the strong places by policy:

dourh@AddDaniel:14:11 @ But the king, with his mind full of rage, came on to shew himself worse to the Jews than his father was.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:12 @ Which, when Judas understood, he commanded the people to call upon the Lord day and night, that as he had always done, so now also he would help them:

dourh@AddDaniel:14:13 @ Because they were afraid to be deprived of the law, and of their country, and of the holy temple: and that he would not suffer the people, that had of late taken breath for a little while, to be again in subjection to blasphemous nations.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:14 @ So when they had all done this together, and had craved mercy of the Lord with weeping and fasting, lying prostrate on the ground for three days continually, Judas exhorted them to make themselves ready.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:15 @ But he with the ancients determined, before the king should bring his army into Judea, and make himself master of the city, to go out, and to commit the event of the thing to the judgment of the Lord.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:16 @ So committing all to God, the creator of the world, and having exhorted his people to fight manfully, and to stand up even to death for the laws, the temple, the city, their country, and citizens: he placed his army about Modin.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:17 @ And having given his company for a watchword, The victory of God, with most valiant chosen young men, he set upon the king's quarter by night, and slew four thousand men in the camp, and the greatest of the elephants, with them that had been upon him,

dourh@AddDaniel:14:21 @ And he marched with his army to Bethsura, which was a strong hold of the Jews: but he was repulsed, he failed, he rest his men.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:22 @ Now Judas sent necessaries to them that were within.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:23 @ But Rhodocus, one of the Jews' army, disclosed the secrets to the enemies, so he was sought out, and taken up, and put in prison.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:24 @ Again the king treated with them that were in Bethsura: gave his right hand: took theirs: and went away.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:25 @ He fought with Jucias: and was overcome. And when he understood that Philip, who had been left over the affairs, had rebelled at Antioch, he was in a consternation of mind, and entreating the Jews, and yielding to them, he swore to all things that seemed reasonable, and, being reconciled, offered sacrifices, honoured the temple, and left gifts.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:26 @ He embraced Machabeus, and made him governor and prince from Ptolemais unto the Cerrenians.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:27 @ But when he was come to Ptolemais, the men of that city were much displeased with the conditions of the peace, being angry for fear they should break the covenant.

dourh@AddDaniel:14:28 @ Then Lysias went up to the judgment seat, and set forth the reason, and appeased the people, and returned to Antioch: and thus matters went with regard to the king's coming and his return.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:1 @ But after the space of three years Judas, and they that were with him, understood that Demetrius the son of Seleucus was come up with a great power, and a navy by the haven of Tripolis to places proper for his purpose.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:3 @ Now one Alcimus, who had been chief priest, but had wilfully defiled himself in the time of mingling with the heathens, seeing that there was no safety for him, nor access to the altar,

dourh@AddDaniel:15:4 @ Came to king Demetrius in the year one hundred and fifty, presenting unto him a crown of gold, and a palm, and besides these, some boughs which seemed to belong to the temple. And that day indeed he held his peace.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:5 @ But having gotten a convenient time to further his madness, being called to counsel by Demetrius, and asked what the Jews relied upon, and what were their counsels,

dourh@AddDaniel:15:6 @ He answered thereunto: They among the Jews that are called Assideans, of whom Judas Machabeus is captain, nourish wars, and raise seditions, and will not suffer the realm to be in peace.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:7 @ For I also being deprived of my ancestors' glory (I mean of the high priesthood) am now come hither:

dourh@AddDaniel:15:8 @ Principally indeed out of fidelity to the king's interests, but in the next place also to provide for the good of my countrymen: for all our nation suffereth much from the evil proceedings of those men.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:9 @ Wherefore, 0 king, seeing thou know- eat all these things, take care, I beseech thee, both of the country, and of our nation, according to thy humanity which is known to all men,

dourh@AddDaniel:15:11 @ Now when this man had spoken to this effect, the rest also of the king's friends, who were enemies of Judas, incensed Demetrius against him.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:12 @ And forthwith he sent Nicanor, the commander over the elephants, governor into Judea:

dourh@AddDaniel:15:13 @ Giving him in charge, to take Judas himself: and disperse all them that were with him, and to make Alcimus the high priest of the great temple.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:14 @ Then the Gentiles who had fled out of Judea from Judas, came to Nicanor by docks, thinking the miseries and calamities of the Jews to be the welfare of their affairs.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:15 @ Now when the Jews heard of Nicanor's coming, and that the nations were assembled against them, they cast earth upon their heads, and made supplication to him, who chose his people to keep them for ever, and who protected his portion by evident signs.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:16 @ Then at the commandment of their captain, they forthwith removed from the place where they were, and went to the town of Dessau, to meet them.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:18 @ Nevertheless Nicanor hearing of the valour of Judas' companions, and the greatness of courage with which they fought for their country, was afraid to try the matter by the sword.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:19 @ Wherefore he sent Posidonius, and Theodotius, and Matthias before to pre- sent and receive the right hands.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:20 @ And when there had been a consultation thereupon, and the captain had acquainted the multitude with it, the) were all of one mind to consent to covenants.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:21 @ So they appointed a day upon which they might commune together by them- selves: and seats were brought out, and set for each one.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:22 @ But Judas ordered men to be ready in convenient places, lest some mischief might he suddenly practised by the enemies: so they made an agreeable conference.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:23 @ And Nicanor abode in Jerusalem, and did no wrong, but sent away the flocks of the multitudes that had been gathered together.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:24 @ And Judas was always dear to him from the heart, and he was well affected to the man.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:25 @ And he desired him to marry a wife, and to have children. So he married: he lived quietly, and they lived in common.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:26 @ But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:27 @ Then the king being in a rage and provoked with this man's wicked accusations, wrote to Nicanor, signifying, that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:28 @ When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:29 @ But because he could not oppose the king, he watched an opportunity to comply with the orders.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:30 @ But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner: and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:31 @ But he finding himself notably pre- vented by the man, came to the great and holy temple: and commanded the priests that were offering the accustomed sacrifices, to deliver him the man.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:32 @ And when they swore unto him, that they knew not where the man was whom he sought, he stretched out his hand to the temple,

dourh@AddDaniel:15:33 @ And swore, saying: Unless you de- liver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:34 @ And when he had spoken thus he departed. But the priests stretching forth their hands to heaven, called upon him that was ever the defender of their nation, saying in this manner:

dourh@AddDaniel:15:37 @ Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his affection was called the father of the Jews.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:38 @ This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews' religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:39 @ So Nicanor being willing to declare the hatred that he bore the Jews, sent five hundred soldiers to take him.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:40 @ For he thought by insnaring him to hurt the Jews very much.

dourh@AddDaniel:15:41 @ Now as the multitude sought to rush into his house, and to break open the door, and to set fire to it, when he was ready to be taken, he struck himself with his sword:

dourh@AddDaniel:15:43 @ But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd:

dourh@AddDaniel:15:46 @ And standing upon a steep rock, when he was now almost without blood, grasping his bowels with both hands, he cast them upon the throng, calling upon the Lord of life and spirit, to restore these to him again: and so he departed this life.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:1 @ But when Nicanor understood that Judas was in the places of Samaria, he purposed to set upon him with all violence on the sabbath day.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:2 @ And when the Jews that were constrained to follow him, said: Do not act so fiercely and barbarously, but give honour to the day that is sanctified: and reverence him that beholdeth all things:

dourh@AddDaniel:16:3 @ That unhappy man asked, if there were a mighty One in heaven, that had commanded the sabbath day to be kept.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:4 @ And when they answered: There is the living Lord himself in heaven, the mighty One, that commanded the seventh day to be kept,

dourh@AddDaniel:16:5 @ Then he said: And I am mighty upon the earth, and I command to take arms, and to do the king's business. Nevertheless he prevailed not to accomplish his design.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:6 @ So Nicanor being puffed up with exceeding great pride, thought to set up a public monument of his victory over Judas.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:8 @ And he exhorted his people not to fear the coming of the nations, but to remember the help they had before received from heaven, and now to hope for victory from the Almighty.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:9 @ And speaking to them out of the law, and the prophets, and withal putting them in mind of the battles they had fought before, he made them more cheerful:

dourh@AddDaniel:16:15 @ Whereupon Jeremias stretched forth his right hand, and gave to Judas a sword of gold, saying:

dourh@AddDaniel:16:17 @ Thus being exhorted with the words of Judas, which were very good, and proper to stir up the courage, and strengthen the hearts of the young men, they resolved to fight, and to set upon them manfully: that valour might decide the matter, because the holy city and the temple were in danger.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:19 @ And they also that were in the city, had no little concern for them that were to be engaged in battle.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:21 @ Machabeus considering the coming of the multitude, and the divers preparations of armour, and the fierceness of the beasts, stretching out his hands to heaven, called upon the Lord, that worketh wonders, who giveth victory to them that are worthy, not according to the power of their arms, but according as it seemeth good to him.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:27 @ So fighting with their hands, but praying to the Lord with their hearts, they slew no less than five and thirty thousand, being greatly cheered with the presence of God.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:28 @ And when the battle was over, and they were returning with joy, they understood that Nicanor was slain in his armour.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:30 @ And Judas, who was altogether ready, in body and mind, to die for his countrymen, commanded that Nicanor's head, and his hand with the shoulder should be cut off, and carried to Jerusalem.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:31 @ And when he was come thither, having called together his countrymen, and the priests to the altar, he sent also for them that were in the castle,

dourh@AddDaniel:16:33 @ He commanded also, that the tongue of the wicked Nicanor, should be cut out and given by pieces to birds, and the hand of the furious man to be hanged up over against the temple.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:35 @ And he hung up Nicanor's head in the top of the castle, that it might be an evident and manifest sign of the help of God.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:36 @ And they all ordained by a common decree, by no means to let this day pass without solemnity:

dourh@AddDaniel:16:37 @ But to celebrate the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, called, in the Syrian language, the day before Mardochias' day.

dourh@AddDaniel:16:38 @ So these things being done with relation to Nicanor, and from that time the city being possessed by the Hebrews, I also will here make an end of my narration.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:3 @ But every day gave all he could get to his brethren his fellow captives, that were of his kindred.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:5 @ Moreover when all went to the golden calves which Jeroboam king of Israel had made, he alone fled the company of all,

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:6 @ And went to Jerusalem to the temple of the Lord, and there adored the Lord God of Israel, offering faithfully all his firstfruits, and his tithes,

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:7 @ So that in the third year he gave all his tithes to the proselytes, and strangers.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:8 @ These and such like things did he observe when but a boy according to the law of God.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:9 @ But when he was a man, he took to wife Anna of his own tribe, and had a son by her, whom he called after his own name,

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:10 @ And from his infancy he taught him to fear God, and to abstain from all sin.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:11 @ And when by the captivity he with his wife and his son and all his tribe was come to the city of Ninive,

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:14 @ And he gave him leave to go whithersoever he would, with liberty to do whatever he had a mind.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:15 @ He therefore went to all that were in captivity, and gave them wholesome admonitions.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:16 @ And when he was come to Rages a city of the Medes, and had ten talents of silver of that with which he had been honoured by the king:

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:19 @ Tobias daily went among all his kindred, and comforted them, and distributed to every one as he was able, out of his goods:

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:20 @ He fed the hungry, and gave clothes to the naked, and was careful to bury the dead, and they that were slain.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:21 @ And when king Sennacherib was come back, fleeing from Judea by reason of the slaughter that God had made about him for his blasphemy, and being angry slew many of the children of Israel, Tobias buried their bodies.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:22 @ But when it was told the king, he commanded him to be slain, and took away all his substance.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:23 @ But Tobias fleeing naked away with his son and with his wife, lay concealed, for many loved him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:1:25 @ And Tobias returned to his house, and all his substance was restored to him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:1 @ But after this, when there was a festival of the Lord, and a good dinner was prepared in Tobias's house,

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:2 @ He said to his son: Go, and bring some of our tribe that fear God, to feast with us.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:3 @ And when he had gone, returning he told him, that one of the children of Israel lay slain in the street. And he forthwith leaped up from his place at the table, and left his dinner, and came fasting to the body:

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:4 @ And taking it up carried it privately to his house, that after the sun was down, he might bury him cautiously.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:6 @ Remembering the word which the Lord spoke by Amos the prophet: Your festival days shall be turned into lamentation and mourning.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:8 @ Now all his neighbours blamed him, saying: Once already commandment was given for thee to be slain because of this matter, and thou didst scarce escape the sentence of death, and dost thou again bury the dead?

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:9 @ But Tobias fearing God more than the king, carried off the bodies of them that were slain, and hid them in his house, and at midnight buried them.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:10 @ Now it happened one day, that being wearied with burying, he came to his house, and cast himself down by the wall and slept,

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:12 @ Now this trial the Lord therefore permitted to happen to him, that an example might be given to posterity of his patience, as also of holy Job.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:14 @ But continued immoveable in the fear of God, giving thanks to God all the days of his life.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:17 @ But Tobias rebuked them, saying: Speak not so:

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:18 @ For we are the children of the saints, and look for that life which God will give to those that never change their faith from him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:19 @ Now Anna his wife went daily to weaving work, and she brought home what she could get for their living by the labour of her hands.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:20 @ Whereby it came to pass, that she received a young kid, and brought it home:

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:21 @ And when her husband heard it bleating, he said: Take heed, lest perhaps it be stolen: restore ye it to its owners, for it is not lawful for us either to eat or to touch any thing that cometh by theft.

dourh@EpJeremiah:2:22 @ At these words his wife being angry answered: It is evident thy hope is come to nothing, and thy alms now appear.

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:1 @ Then Tobias sighed, and began to pray with tears,

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:4 @ For we have not obeyed thy commandments, therefore are we delivered to spoil and to captivity, and death, and are made a fable, and a reproach to all nations, amongst which thou hast scattered us.

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:5 @ And now, O Lord, great are thy judgments, because we have not done according to thy precepts, and have not walked sincerely before thee:

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:6 @ And now, O Lord, do with me according to thy will, and command my spirit to be received in peace: for it is better for me to die, than to live.

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:8 @ Because she had been given to seven husbands, and a devil named Asmodeus had killed them, at their first going in unto her.

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:10 @ Wilt thou kill me also, as thou hast already killed seven husbands? At these words she went into an upper chamber of her house: and for three days and three nights did neither eat nor drink:

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:12 @ And it came to pass on the third day, when she was making an end of her prayer, blessing the Lord,

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:14 @ To thee, O Lord, I turn my face, to thee I direct my eyes.

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:18 @ But a husband I consented to take, with thy fear, not with my lust.

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:21 @ But this every one is sure of that worshippeth thee, that his life, if it be under trial, shall be crowned: and if it be under tribulation, it shall be delivered: and if it be under correction, it shall be allowed to come to thy mercy.

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:22 @ For thou art not delighted in our being lost: because after a storm thou makest a calm, and after tears and weeping thou pourest in joyfulness.

dourh@EpJeremiah:3:25 @ And the holy angel of the Lord, Raphael was sent to heal them both, whose prayers at one time were rehearsed in the sight of the Lord.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:1 @ Therefore when Tobias thought that his prayer was heard that he might die, he called to him Tobias his son,

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:2 @ And said to him: Hear, my son, the words of my mouth, and lay them as a foundation in thy heart.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:6 @ And all the days of thy life have God in thy mind: and take heed thou never consent to sin, nor transgress the commandments of the Lord our God.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:7 @ Give alms out of thy substance, and turn not away thy face from any poor person: for so it shall come to pass that the face of the Lord shall not be turned from thee.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:8 @ According to thy ability be merciful.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:9 @ If thou have much give abundantly: if thou have a little, take care even so to bestow willingly a little.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:10 @ For thus thou storest up to thyself a good reward for the day of necessity.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:11 @ For alms deliver from all sin, and from death, and will not suffer the soul to go into darkness.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:12 @ Alms shall be a great confidence before the most high God, to all them that give it.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:13 @ Take heed to keep thyself, my son, from all fornication, and beside thy wife never endure to know a crime.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:14 @ Never suffer pride to reign in thy mind, or in thy words: for from it all perdition took its beginning.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:16 @ See thou never do to another what thou wouldst hate to have done to thee by another.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:20 @ Bless God at all times: and desire of him to direct thy ways, and that all thy counsels may abide in him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:21 @ I tell thee also, my son, that I lent ten talents of silver, while thou wast yet a child, to Gabelus, in Rages a city of the Medes, and I have a note of his hand with me:

dourh@EpJeremiah:4:22 @ Now therefore inquire how thou mayst go to him, and receive of him the foresaid sum of money, and restore to him the note of his hand.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:1 @ Then Tobias answered his father, and said: I will do all things, father, which thou hast commanded me.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:2 @ But how I shall get this money, I cannot tell; he knoweth me not, and I know not him: what token shall I give him? nor did I ever know the way which leadeth thither.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:4 @ But go now, and seek thee out some faithful man, to go with thee for his hire: that thou mayst receive it, while I yet live.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:5 @ Then Tobias going forth, found a beautiful young man, standing girded, and as it were ready to walk.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:7 @ But he answered: Of the children of Israel. And Tobias said to him: Knowest thou the way that leadeth to the country of the Medes?

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:9 @ And Tobias said to him: Stay for me, I beseech thee, till I tell these same things to my father.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:10 @ Then Tobias going in told all these things to his father. Upon which his father being in admiration, desired that he would come in unto him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:11 @ So going in he saluted him, and said: Joy be to thee always.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:12 @ And Tobias said: What manner of joy shall be to me, who sit in darkness, and see not the light of heaven?

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:13 @ And the young man said to him: Be of good courage, thy cure from God is at hand.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:14 @ And Tobias said to him: Canst thou conduct my son to Gabelus at Rages, a city of the Medes? and when thou shalt return, I will pay thee thy hire.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:15 @ And the angel said to him: I will conduct him thither, and bring him back to thee.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:16 @ And Tobias said to him: I pray thee, tell me, of what family, or what tribe art thou?

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:17 @ And Raphael the angel answered: Dost thou seek the family of him thou hirest, or the hired servant himself to go with thy son?

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:19 @ And Tobias answered: Thou art of a great family. But I pray thee be not angry that I desired to know thy family.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:20 @ And the angel said to him: I will lead thy son safe, and bring him to thee again safe.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:21 @ And Tobias answering, said: May you have a good journey, and God be with you in your way, and his angel accompany you.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:22 @ Then all things being ready, that were to be carried in their journey, Tobias bade his father and his mother farewell, and they set out both together.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:23 @ And when they were departed, his mother began to weep, and to say: Thou hast taken the staff of our old age, and sent him away from us.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:26 @ And Tobias said to her: Weep not, our son will arrive thither safe, and will return safe to us, and thy eyes shall see him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:5:27 @ For I believe that the good angel of God doth accompany him, and doth order all things well that are done about him, so that he shall return to us with joy.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:1 @ And Tobias went forward, and the dog followed him, and he lodged the first night by the river of Tigris.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:2 @ And he went out to wash his feet, and behold a monstrous fish came up to devour him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:3 @ And Tobias being afraid of him, cried out with a loud voice, saying: Sir, he cometh upon me.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:4 @ And the angel said to him: Take him by the gill, and draw him to thee. And when he had done so, he drew him out upon the land, and he began to pant before his feet.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:5 @ Then the angel said to him: Take out the entrails of the fish, and lay up his heart, and his gall, and his liver for thee: for these are necessary for useful medicines.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:6 @ And when he had done so, he roasted the flesh thereof, and they took it with them in the way: the rest they salted as much as might serve them, till they came to Rages the city of the Medes.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:7 @ Then Tobias asked the angel, and said to him: I beseech thee, brother Azarias, tell me what remedies are these things good for, which thou hast bid me keep of the fish?

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:8 @ And the angel, answering, said to him: If thou put a little piece of its heart upon coals, the smoke thereof driveth away all kind of devils, either from man or from woman, so that they come no more to them.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:10 @ And Tobias said to him: Where wilt thou that we lodge?

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:12 @ All his substance is due to thee, and thou must take her to wife.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:13 @ Ask her therefore of her father, and he will give her thee to wife.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:14 @ Then Tobias answered, and said: I hear that she hath been given to seven husbands, and they all died: moreover I have heard, that a devil killed them.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:15 @ Now I am afraid, lest the same thing should happen to me also: and whereas I am the only child of my parents, I should bring down their old age with sorrow to hell.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:16 @ Then the angel Raphael said to him: Hear me, and I will shew thee who they are, over whom the devil can prevail.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:17 @ For they who in such manner receive matrimony, as to shut out God from themselves, and from their mind, and to give themselves to their lust, as the horse and mule, which have not understanding, over them the devil hath power.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:18 @ But thou when thou shalt take her, go into the chamber, and for three days keep thyself continent from her, and give thyself to nothing else but to prayers with her.

dourh@EpJeremiah:6:20 @ But the second night thou shalt be admitted into the society of the holy Patriarchs.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:1 @ And they went in to Raguel, and Raguel received them with joy.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:2 @ And Raguel looking upon Tobias, said to Anna his wife: How like is this young man to my cousin?

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:5 @ And Raguel said to them: Do you know Tobias my brother? And they said: We know him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:6 @ And when he was speaking many good things of him, the angel said to Raguel: Tobias concerning whom thou inquirest is this young man's father.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:7 @ And Raguel went to him, and kissed him with tears, and weeping upon his neck, said: A blessing be upon thee, my son, because thou art the son of a good and most virtuous man.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:9 @ And after they had spoken, Raguel commanded a sheep to be killed, and a feast to be prepared. And when he desired them to sit down to dinner,

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:10 @ Tobias said: I will not eat nor drink here this day, unless thou first grant me my petition, and promise to give me Sara thy daughter.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:11 @ Now when Raguel heard this he was afraid, knowing what had happened to those seven husbands, that went in unto her: and he began to fear lest it might happen to him also in like manner: and as he was in suspense, and gave no answer to his petition,

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:12 @ The angel said to him: Be not afraid to give her to this man, for to him who feareth God is thy daughter due to be his wife: therefore another could not have her.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:14 @ And I believe he hath therefore made you come to me, that this maid might be married to one of her own kindred, according to the law of Moses: and now doubt not but I will give her to thee.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:15 @ And taking the right hand of his daughter, he gave it into the right hand of Tobias, saying: The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob be with you, and may he join you together, and fulfil his blessing in you.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:18 @ And Raguel called to him Anna his wife, and bade her prepare another chamber.

dourh@EpJeremiah:7:20 @ And she said to her: Be of good cheer, my daughter: the Lord of heaven give thee joy for the trouble thou hast undergone.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:1 @ And after they had supped, they brought in the young man to her.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:2 @ And Tobias remembering the angel's word, took out of his bag part of the liver, and laid it upon burning coals.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:3 @ Then the angel Raphael took the devil, and bound him in the desert of upper Egypt.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:4 @ Then Tobias exhorted the virgin, and said to her: Sara, arise, and let us pray to God to day, and to morrow, and the next day: because for these three nights we are joined to God: and when the third night is over, we will be in our own wedlock.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:5 @ For we are the children of saints, and we must not be joined together like heathens that know not God.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:6 @ So they both arose, and prayed earnestly both together that health might be given them,

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:7 @ And Tobias said: Lord God of our father, may the heavens and the earth, and the sea, and the fountains, and the rivers, and all thy creatures that are in them, bless thee.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:9 @ And now, Lord, thou knowest, that not for fleshly lust do I take my sister to wife, but only for the love of posterity, in which thy name may be blessed for ever and ever.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:10 @ Sara also said: Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us, and let us grow old both together in health.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:11 @ And it came to pass about the cockcrowing, Raguel ordered his servants to be called for, and they went with him together to dig a grave.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:12 @ For he said: Lest perhaps it may have happened to him, in like manner as it did to the other seven husbands, that went in unto her.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:13 @ And when they had prepared the pit, Raguel went back to his wife, and said to her:

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:15 @ So she sent one of her maidservants, who went into the chamber, and found them safe and sound, sleeping both together.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:18 @ For thou hast shewn thy mercy to us, and hast shut out from us the enemy that persecuted us.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:19 @ And thou hast taken pity upon two only children. Make them, O Lord, bless thee more fully: and to offer up to thee a sacrifice of thy praise, and of their health, that all nations may know, that thou alone art God in all the earth.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:20 @ And immediately Raguel commanded his servants, to fill up the pit they had made, before it was day.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:21 @ And he spoke to his wife to make ready a feast, and prepare all kind of provisions that are necessary for such as go a journey.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:22 @ He caused also two fat kine, and four wethers to be killed, and a banquet to be prepared for all his neighbours, and all his friends.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:23 @ And Raguel adjured Tobias, to abide with him two weeks.

dourh@EpJeremiah:8:24 @ And of all things which Raguel possessed, he gave one half to Tobias, and made him a writing, that the half that remained should after their decease come also to Tobias.

dourh@EpJeremiah:9:1 @ Then Tobias called the angel to him, whom he took to be a man, and said to him: Brother Azarias, I pray thee hearken to my words:

dourh@EpJeremiah:9:2 @ If I should give myself to be thy servant I should not make a worthy return for thy care.

dourh@EpJeremiah:9:3 @ However, I beseech thee, to take with thee beasts and servants, and to go to Gabelus to Rages the city of the Medes: and to restore to him his note of hand, and receive of him the money, and desire him to come to my wedding.

dourh@EpJeremiah:9:6 @ Then Raphael took four of Raguel's servants, and two camels, and went to Rages the city of the Medes: and finding Gabelus, gave him his note of hand, and received of him all the money.

dourh@EpJeremiah:9:7 @ And he told him concerning Tobias the son of Tobias, all that had been done: and made him come with him to the wedding.

dourh@EpJeremiah:9:8 @ And when he was come into Raguel's house he found Tobias sitting at the table: and he leaped up, and they kissed each other: and Gabelus wept, and blessed God,

dourh@EpJeremiah:9:11 @ And may you see your children, and your children's children, unto the third and fourth generation: and may your seed be blessed by the God of Israel, who reigneth for ever and ever.

dourh@EpJeremiah:9:12 @ And when all had said, Amen, they went to the feast: but the marriage feast they celebrated also with the fear of the Lord.

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:1 @ But as Tobias made longer stay upon occasion of the marriage, Tobias his father was solicitous, saying: Why thinkest thou doth my son tarry, or why is he detained there?

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:3 @ And he began to be exceeding sad, both he and Anna his wife with him: and they began both to weep together: because their son did not return to them on the day appointed.

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:4 @ But his mother wept and was quite disconsolate, and said: Woe, woe is me, my son; why did we send thee to go to a strange country, the light of our eyes, the staff of our old age, the comfort of our life, the hope of our posterity?

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:5 @ We having all things together in thee alone, ought not to have let thee go from us.

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:6 @ And Tobias said to her: Hold thy peace, and be not troubled, our son is safe: that man with whom we sent him is very trusty.

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:7 @ But she could by no means be comforted, but daily running out looked round about, and went into all the ways by which there seemed any hope he might return, that she might if possible see him coming afar off.

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:8 @ But Raguel said to his son in law: Stay here, and I will send a messenger to Tobias thy father, that thou art in health.

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:9 @ And Tobias said to him: I know that my father and mother now count the days, and their spirit is grievously afflicted within them.

dourh@EpJeremiah:10:10 @ And when Raguel had pressed Tobias with many words, and he by no means would hearken to him, he delivered Sara unto him, and half of all his substance in menservants, and womenservants, in cattle, in camels, and in kine, and in much money, and sent him away safe and joyful from him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:1 @ And as they were returning they came to Charan, which is in the midway to Ninive, the eleventh day.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:2 @ And the angel said: Brother Tobias, thou knowest how thou didst leave thy father.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:3 @ If it please thee therefore, let us go before, and let the family follow softly after us, together with thy wife, and with the beasts.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:4 @ And as this their going pleased him, Raphael said to Tobias: Take with thee of the gall of the fish, for it will be necessary. So Tobias took some of that gall and departed.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:5 @ But Anna sat beside the way daily, on the top of a hill, from whence she might see afar off.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:6 @ And while she watched his coming from that place, she saw him afar off, and presently perceived it was her son coming: and returning she told her husband, saying: Behold thy son cometh.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:7 @ And Raphael said to Tobias: As soon as thou shalt come into thy house, forthwith adore the Lord thy God: and giving thanks to him, go to thy father, and kiss him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:10 @ And his father that was blind, rising up, began to run stumbling with his feet: and giving a servant his hand, went to meet his son.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:11 @ And receiving him kissed him, as did also his wife, and they began to weep for joy.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:12 @ And when they had adored God, and given him thanks, they sat down together.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:13 @ Then Tobias taking of the gall of the fish, anointed his father's eyes.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:14 @ And he stayed about half an hour: and a white skin began to come out of his eyes, like the skin of an egg.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:15 @ And Tobias took hold of it, and drew it from his eyes, and immediately he recovered his sight.

dourh@EpJeremiah:11:17 @ And Tobias said: I bless thee, O Lord God of Israel, because thou hast chastised me, and thou hast saved me: and behold I see Tobias my son.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:1 @ Then Tobias called to him his son, and said to him: What can we give to this holy man, that is come with thee?

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:2 @ Tobias answering, said to his father: Father, what wages shall we give him? or what can be worthy of his benefits?

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:3 @ He conducted me and brought me safe again, he received the money of Gabelus, he caused me to have my wife, and he chased from her the evil spirit, he gave joy to her parents, myself he delivered from being devoured by the fish, thee also he hath made to see the light of heaven, and we are filled with all good things through him. What can we give him sufficient for these things?

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:4 @ But I beseech thee, my father, to desire him, that he would vouchsafe to accept one half of all things that have been brought.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:5 @ So the father and the son, calling him, took him aside: and began to desire him that he would vouchsafe to accept of half of all things that they had brought.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:6 @ Then he said to them secretly: Bless ye the God of heaven, give glory to him in the sight of all that live, because he hath shewn his mercy to you.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:7 @ For it is good to hide the secret of a king: but honourable to reveal and confess the works of God.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:8 @ Prayer is good with fasting and alms more than to lay up treasures of gold:

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:9 @ For alms delivereth from death, and the same is that which purgeth away sins, and maketh to find mercy and life everlasting.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:10 @ But they that commit sin and iniquity, are enemies to their own soul.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:11 @ I discover then the truth unto you, and I will not hide the secret from you.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:12 @ When thou didst pray with tears, and didst bury the dead, and didst leave thy dinner, and hide the dead by day in thy house, and bury them by night, I offered thy prayer to the Lord.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:13 @ And because thou wast acceptable to God, it was necessary that temptation should prove thee.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:14 @ And now the Lord hath sent me to heal thee, and to deliver Sara thy son's wife from the devil.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:17 @ And the angel said to them: Peace be to you, fear not.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:18 @ For when I was with you, I was there by the will of God: bless ye him, and sing praises to him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:19 @ I seemed indeed to eat and to drink with you: but I use an invisible meat and drink, which cannot be seen by men.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:20 @ It is time therefore that I return to him that sent me: but bless ye God, and publish all his wonderful works.

dourh@EpJeremiah:12:22 @ Then they lying prostrate for three hours upon their face, blessed God: and rising up, they told all his wonderful works.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:1 @ And Tobias the elder opening his mouth, blessed the Lord, and said: Thou art great, O Lord, for ever, and thy kingdom is unto all ages:

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:2 @ For thou scourgest, and thou savest: thou leadest down to hell, and bringest up again: and there is none that can escape thy hand.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:3 @ Give glory to the Lord, ye children of Israel, and praise him in the sight of the Gentiles:

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:6 @ See then what he hath done with us, and with fear and trembling give ye glory to him: and extol the eternal King of worlds in your works.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:7 @ As for me, I will praise him in the land of my captivity: because he hath shewn his majesty toward a sinful nation.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:8 @ Be converted therefore, ye sinners, and do justice before God, believing that he will shew his mercy to you.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:10 @ Bless ye the Lord, all his elect, keep days of joy, and give glory to him.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:12 @ Give glory to the Lord for thy good things, and bless the God eternal, that he may rebuild his tabernacle in thee, and may call back all the captives to thee, and thou mayst rejoice for ever and ever.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:14 @ Nations from afar shall come to thee: and shall bring gifts, and shall adore the Lord in thee, and shall esteem thy land as holy.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:17 @ But thou shalt rejoice in thy children, because they shall all be blessed, and shall be gathered together to the Lord.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:20 @ Happy shall I be if there shall remain of my seed, to see the glory of Jerusalem.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:21 @ The gates of Jerusalem shall be built of sapphire, and of emerald, and all the walls thereof round about of precious stones.

dourh@EpJeremiah:13:22 @ All its streets shall be paved with white and clean stones: and Alleluia shall be sung in its streets.

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:1 @ And the words of Tobias were ended. And after Tobias was restored to his sight, he lived two and forty years, and saw the children of his grandchildren.

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:5 @ And at the hour of his death he called unto him his son Tobias and his children, seven young men, his grandsons, and said to them:

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:6 @ The destruction of Ninive is at hand: for the word of the Lord must be fulfilled: and our brethren, that are scattered abroad from the land of Israel, shall return to it.

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:8 @ And the Gentiles shall leave their idols, and shall come into Jerusalem, and shall dwell in it.

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:10 @ Hearken therefore, my children, to your father: serve the Lord in truth, and seek to do the things that please him:

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:12 @ And now, children, hear me, and do not stay here: but as soon as you shall bury your mother by me in one sepulchre, without delay direct your steps to depart hence:

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:13 @ For I see that its iniquity will bring it to destruction.

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:14 @ And it came to pass that after the death of his mother, Tobias departed out of Ninive with his wife, and children, and children's children, and returned to his father and mother in law.

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:15 @ And he found them in health in a good old age: and he took care of them, and he closed their eyes: and all the inheritance of Raguel's house came to him: and he saw his children's children to the fifth generation.

dourh@EpJeremiah:14:17 @ And all his kindred, and all his generation continued in good life, and in holy conversation, so that they were acceptable both to God, and to men, and to all that dwelt in the land.

dourh@1Esd:1:2 @ For he is found by them that tempt him not: and he sheweth himself to them that have faith in him.

dourh@1Esd:1:4 @ For wisdom will not enter into a malicious soul, nor dwell in a body subject to sins.

dourh@1Esd:1:6 @ For the spirit of wisdom is benevolent, and will not acquit the evil speaker from his lips: for God is witness of his reins, and he is a true searcher of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue.

dourh@1Esd:1:9 @ For inquisition shall be made into the thoughts of the ungodly: and the hearing of his words shall come to God, to the chastising of his iniquities.

dourh@1Esd:1:11 @ Keep yourselves therefore from murmuring, which profiteth nothing, and refrain your tongue from detraction, for an obscure speech shall not go for nought: and the mouth that belieth, killeth the soul.

dourh@1Esd:1:16 @ But the wicked with works and words have called it to them: and esteeming it a friend have fallen away, and have made a covenant with it: because they are worthy to be of the part thereof.

dourh@1Esd:2:1 @ For they have said, reasoning with themselves, but not right: The time of our life is short and tedious, and in the end of a man there is no remedy, and no man hath been known to have returned from hell:

dourh@1Esd:2:2 @ For we are born of nothing, and after this we shall be as if we had not been: for the breath in our nostrils is smoke: and speech a spark to move our heart,

dourh@1Esd:2:9 @ Let none of us go without his part in luxury: let us everywhere leave tokens of joy: for this is our portion, and this our lot.

dourh@1Esd:2:11 @ But let our strength be the law of justice: for that which is feeble, is found to be nothing worth.

dourh@1Esd:2:12 @ Let us therefore lie in wait for the just, because he is not for our turn, and he is contrary to our doings, and upbraideth us with transgressions of the law, and divulgeth against us the sins of our way of life.

dourh@1Esd:2:15 @ He is grievous unto us, even to behold: for his life is not like other men's, and his ways are very different.

dourh@1Esd:2:17 @ Let us see then if his words be true, and let us prove what shall happen to him, and we shall know what his end shall be.

dourh@1Esd:2:19 @ Let us examine him by outrages and tortures, that we may know his meekness and try his patience.

dourh@1Esd:2:20 @ Let us condemn him to a most shameful death: for there shall be respect had unto him by his words.

dourh@1Esd:2:23 @ For God created man incorruptible, and to the image of his own likeness he made him.

dourh@1Esd:2:24 @ But by the envy of the devil, death came into the world:

dourh@1Esd:3:1 @ But the souls of the just are in the hand of God, and the torment of death shall not touch them.

dourh@1Esd:3:2 @ In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die: and their departure was taken for misery:

dourh@1Esd:3:4 @ And though in the sight of men they suffered torments, their hope is full of immortality.

dourh@1Esd:3:6 @ As gold in the furnace he hath proved them, and as a victim of a holocaust he hath received them, and in time there shall be respect had to them.

dourh@1Esd:3:7 @ The just shall shine, and shall run to and fro like sparks among the reeds.

dourh@1Esd:3:9 @ They that trust in him, shall understand the truth: and they that are faithful in love shall rest in him: for grace and peace is to his elect.

dourh@1Esd:3:10 @ But the wicked shall be punished according to their own devices: who have neglected the just, and have revolted from the Lord.

dourh@1Esd:3:14 @ And the eunuch, that hath not wrought iniquity with his hands, nor thought wicked things against God: for the precious gift of faith shall be given to him, and a most acceptable lot in the temple of God.

dourh@1Esd:3:16 @ But the children of adulterers shall not come to perfection, and the seed of the unlawful bed shall be rooted out.

dourh@1Esd:4:5 @ For the branches not being perfect, shall be broken, and their fruits shall be unprofitable, and sour to eat, and fit for nothing.

dourh@1Esd:4:14 @ For his soul pleased God: therefore he hastened to bring him out of the midst of iniquities: but the people see this, and understand not, nor lay up such things in their hearts:

dourh@1Esd:4:15 @ That the grace of God, and his mercy is with his saints, and that he hath respect to his chosen.

dourh@1Esd:4:18 @ They shall see him, and shall despise him: but the Lord shall laugh them to scorn.

dourh@1Esd:4:20 @ They shall come with fear at the thought of their sins, and their iniquities shall stand against them to convict them.

dourh@1Esd:5:6 @ Therefore we have erred from the way of truth, and the light of justice hath not shined unto us, and the sun of understanding hath not risen upon us.

dourh@1Esd:5:12 @ Or as when an arrow is shot at a mark, the divided air presently cometh together again, so that the passage thereof is not known:

dourh@1Esd:5:13 @ So we also being born, forthwith ceased to be: and have been able to shew no mark of virtue: but are consumed in our wickedness.

dourh@1Esd:5:15 @ For the hope of the wicked is as dust, which is blown away with the wind, and as a thin froth which is dispersed by the storm: and a smoke that is scattered abroad by the wind: and as the remembrance of a guest of one day that passeth by.

dourh@1Esd:5:22 @ Then shafts of lightning shall go directly from the clouds, as from a bow well bent, they shall be shot out, and shall fly to the mark.

dourh@1Esd:5:23 @ And thick hail shall be cast upon them from the stone casting wrath: the water of the sea shall rage against them, and the rivers shall run together in a terrible manner.

dourh@1Esd:5:24 @ A mighty wind shall stand up against them, and as a whirlwind shall divide them: and their iniquity shall bring all the earth to a desert, and wickedness shall overthrow the thrones of the mighty.

dourh@1Esd:6:5 @ Because being ministers of his kingdom, you have not judged rightly, nor kept the law of justice, nor walked according to the will of God.

dourh@1Esd:6:6 @ Horribly and speedily will he appear to you: for a most severe judgment shall be for them that bear rule.

dourh@1Esd:6:7 @ For to him that is little, mercy is granted: but the mighty shall be mightily tormented.

dourh@1Esd:6:10 @ To you, therefore, O kings, are these my words, that you may learn wisdom, and not fall from it.

dourh@1Esd:6:11 @ For they that have kept just things justly, shall be justified: and they that have learned these things, shall find what to answer.

dourh@1Esd:6:14 @ She preventeth them that covet her, so that she first sheweth herself unto them.

dourh@1Esd:6:15 @ He that awaketh early to seek her, shall not labour: for he shall find her sitting at his door.

dourh@1Esd:6:16 @ To think therefore upon her, is perfect understanding: and he that watcheth for her, shall quickly be secure.

dourh@1Esd:6:17 @ For she goeth about seeking such as are worthy of her, and she sheweth herself to them cheerfully in the ways, and meeteth them with all providence.

dourh@1Esd:6:20 @ And incorruption bringeth near to God.

dourh@1Esd:6:21 @ Therefore the desire of wisdom bringeth to the everlasting kingdom.

dourh@1Esd:6:24 @ Now what wisdom is, and what was her origin, I will declare: and I will not hide from you the mysteries of God, but will seek her out from the beginning of her birth, and bring the knowledge of her to light, and will not pass over the truth:

dourh@1Esd:6:27 @ Receive therefore instruction by my words, and it shall be profitable to you.

dourh@1Esd:7:1 @ I myself also am a mortal man, like all others, and of the race of him, that was first made of the earth, and in the womb of my mother I was fashioned to be flesh.

dourh@1Esd:7:6 @ For all men have one entrance into life, and the like going out.

dourh@1Esd:7:9 @ Neither did I compare unto her any precious stone: for all gold in comparison of her, is as a little sand, and silver in respect to her shall be counted as clay.

dourh@1Esd:7:10 @ I loved her above health and beauty, and chose to have her instead of light: for her light cannot be put out.

dourh@1Esd:7:11 @ Now all good things came to me together with her, and innumerable riches through her hands,

dourh@1Esd:7:14 @ For she is an infinite treasure to men! which they that use, become the friends of God, being commended for the gift of discipline.

dourh@1Esd:7:15 @ And God hath given to me to speak as I would, and to conceive thoughts worthy of those things that are given me: because he is the guide of wisdom, and the director of the wise:

dourh@1Esd:7:17 @ For he hath given me the true knowledge of the things that are: to know the disposition of the whole world, and the virtues of the elements,

dourh@1Esd:7:25 @ For she is a vapour of the power of God, and a certain pure emanation of the glory of the almighty God: and therefore no defiled thing cometh into her.

dourh@1Esd:7:27 @ And being but one, she can do all things: and remaining in herself the same, she reneweth all things, and through nations conveyeth herself into holy souls, she maketh the friends of God and prophets.

dourh@1Esd:8:1 @ She reacheth therefore from end to end mightily, and ordereth all things sweetly.

dourh@1Esd:8:2 @ Her have I loved, and have sought her out from my youth, and have desired to take her for my spouse, and I became a lover of her beauty.

dourh@1Esd:8:8 @ And if a man desire much knowledge: she knoweth things past, and judgeth of things to come: she knoweth the subtilties of speeches, and the solutions of arguments: she knoweth signs and wonders before they be done, and the events of times and ages.

dourh@1Esd:8:9 @ I purposed therefore to take her to me to live with me: knowing that she will communicate to me of her good things, and will be a comfort in my cares and grief.

dourh@1Esd:8:13 @ Moreover by the means of her I shall have immortality: and shall leave behind me an everlasting memory to them that come after me.

dourh@1Esd:8:14 @ I shall set the people in order: and nations shall be subject to me.

dourh@1Esd:8:16 @ When I go into my house, I shall repose myself with her: for her conversation hath no bitterness, nor her company any tediousness, but joy and gladness.

dourh@1Esd:8:17 @ Thinking these things with myself, and pondering them in my heart, that to be allied to wisdom is immortality,

dourh@1Esd:8:18 @ And that there is great delight in her friendship, and inexhaustible riches in the works of her hands, and in the exercise of conference with her, wisdom, and glory in the communication of her words: I went about seeking, that I might take her to myself.

dourh@1Esd:8:20 @ And whereas I was more good, I came to a body undefiled.

dourh@1Esd:8:21 @ And as I knew that I could not otherwise be continent, except God gave it, and this also was a point of wisdom, to know whose gift it was: I went to the Lord, and besought him, and said with my whole heart:

dourh@1Esd:9:3 @ That he should order the world according to equity and justice, and execute justice with an upright heart:

dourh@1Esd:9:7 @ Thou hast chosen me to be king of thy people, and a judge of thy sons and daughters.

dourh@1Esd:9:8 @ And hast commanded me to build a temple on thy holy mount, and an altar in the city of thy dwelling place, a resemblance of thy holy tabernacle, which thou hast prepared from the beginning:

dourh@1Esd:9:9 @ And thy wisdom with thee, which knoweth thy works, which then also was present when thou madest the world, and knew what was agreeable to thy eyes, and what was right in thy commandments.

dourh@1Esd:10:2 @ And she brought him out of his sin, and gave him power to govern all things.

dourh@1Esd:10:5 @ Moreover when the nations had conspired together to consent to wickedness, she knew the just, and preserved him without blame to God, and kept him strong against the compassion for his son.

dourh@1Esd:10:7 @ Whose land for a testimony of their wickedness is desolate, and smoketh to this day, and the trees bear fruits that ripen not, and a standing pillar of salt is a monument of an incredulous soul.

dourh@1Esd:10:8 @ For regarding not wisdom, they did not only slip in this, that they were ignorant of good things, but they left also unto men a memorial of their folly, so that in the things in which they sinned, they could not so much as lie hid.

dourh@1Esd:10:11 @ In the deceit of them that overreached him, she stood by him, and made him honourable.

dourh@1Esd:10:13 @ She forsook not the just when he was sold, but delivered him from sinners: she went down with him into the pit.

dourh@1Esd:10:14 @ And in bands she left him not, till she brought him the sceptre of the kingdom, and power against those that oppressed him: and shewed them to be liars that had accused him, and gave him everlasting glory.

dourh@1Esd:10:16 @ She entered into the soul of the servant of God, and stood against dreadful kings in wonders and signs.

dourh@1Esd:10:17 @ And she rendered to the just the wages of their labours, and conducted them in a wonderful way: and she was to them for a covert by day, and for the light of stars by night:

dourh@1Esd:10:19 @ But their enemies she drowned in the sea, and from the depth of hell she brought them out. Therefore the just took the spoils of the wicked.

dourh@1Esd:10:20 @ And they sung to thy holy name, O Lord, and they praised with one accord thy victorious hand.

dourh@1Esd:10:21 @ For wisdom opened the mouth of the dumb, and made the tongues of infants eloquent.

dourh@1Esd:11:3 @ They stood against their enemies, and revenged themselves of their adversaries.

dourh@1Esd:11:4 @ They were thirsty, and they called upon thee, and water was given them out of the high rock, and a refreshment of their thirst out of the hard stone.

dourh@1Esd:11:7 @ For instead of a fountain of an ever running river, thou gavest human blood to the unjust.

dourh@1Esd:11:8 @ And whilst they were diminished for a manifest reproof of their murdering the infants, thou gavest to thine abundant water unlooked for:

dourh@1Esd:11:10 @ For when they were tried, and chastised with mercy, they knew how the wicked were judged with wrath and tormented.

dourh@1Esd:11:12 @ For whether absent or present, they were tormented alike.

dourh@1Esd:11:14 @ For when they heard that by their punishments the others were benefited, they remembered the Lord, wondering at the end of what was come to pass.

dourh@1Esd:11:15 @ For whom they scorned before, when he was thrown out at the time of his being wickedly exposed to perish, him they admired in the end, when they saw the event: their thirsting being unlike to that of the just.

dourh@1Esd:11:17 @ That they might know that by what things a man sinneth, by the same also he is tormented.

dourh@1Esd:11:18 @ For thy almighty hand, which made the world of matter without form, was not unable to send upon them a multitude of bears, or fierce lions,

dourh@1Esd:11:20 @ Whereof not only the hurt might be able to destroy them, but also the very sight might kill them through fear.

dourh@1Esd:11:22 @ For great power always belonged to thee alone: and who shall resist the strength of thy arm?

dourh@1Esd:12:2 @ And therefore thou chastisest them that err, by little and little: and admonishest them, and speakest to them, concerning the things wherein they offend: that leaving their wickedness, they may believe in thee, O Lord.

dourh@1Esd:12:4 @ Because they did works hateful to thee by their sorceries, and wicked sacrifices,

dourh@1Esd:12:6 @ And those parents sacrificing with their own hands helpless souls, it was thy will to destroy by the hands of our parents,

dourh@1Esd:12:7 @ That the land which of all is most dear to thee might receive a worthy colony of the children of God.

dourh@1Esd:12:8 @ Yet even those thou sparedst as men, and didst send wasps, forerunners of thy host, to destroy them by little and little.

dourh@1Esd:12:9 @ Not that thou wast unable to bring the wicked under the just by war, or by cruel beasts, or with one rough word to destroy them at once:

dourh@1Esd:12:11 @ For it was a cursed seed from the beginning: neither didst thou for fear of any one give pardon to their sins.

dourh@1Esd:12:12 @ For who shall say to thee: What hast thou done? or who shall withstand thy judgment? or who shall come before thee to be a revenger of wicked men? or who shall accuse thee, if the nations perish, which thou hast made?

dourh@1Esd:12:15 @ For so much then as thou art just, thou orderest all things justly: thinking it not agreeable to thy power, to condemn him who deserveth not to be punished.

dourh@1Esd:12:16 @ For thy power is the beginning of justice: and because thou art Lord of all, thou makest thyself gracious to all.

dourh@1Esd:12:17 @ For thou shewest thy power, when men will not believe thee to be absolute in power, and thou convincest the boldness of them that know thee not.

dourh@1Esd:12:19 @ But thou hast taught thy people by such works, that they must be just and humane, and hast made thy children to be of a good hope: because in judging thou givest place for repentance for sins.

dourh@1Esd:12:20 @ For if thou didst punish the enemies of thy servants, and that deserved to die, with so great deliberation, giving them time and place whereby they might be changed from their wickedness:

dourh@1Esd:12:21 @ With what circumspection hast thou judged thy own children, to whose parents thou hast sworn and made covenants of good promises?

dourh@1Esd:12:22 @ Therefore whereas thou chastisest us, thou scourgest our enemies very many ways, to the end that when we judge we may think on thy goodness: and when we are judged, we may hope for thy mercy.

dourh@1Esd:12:23 @ Wherefore thou hast also greatly tormented them who in their life have lived foolishly and unjustly, by the same things which they worshipped.

dourh@1Esd:12:25 @ Therefore thou hast sent a judgment upon them as senseless children to mock them.

dourh@1Esd:12:27 @ For seeing with indignation that they suffered by those very things which they took for gods, when they were destroyed by the same, they acknowledged him the true God, whom in time past they denied that they knew: for which cause the end also of their condemnation came upon them.

dourh@1Esd:13:1 @ But all men are vain, in whom there is not the knowledge of God: and who by these good things that are seen, could not understand him that is, neither by attending to the works have acknowledged who was the workman:

dourh@1Esd:13:2 @ But have imagined either the fire, or the wind, or the swift air, or the circle of the stars, or the great water, or the sun and moon, to be the gods that rule the world.

dourh@1Esd:13:3 @ With whose beauty, if they, being delighted, took them to be gods: let them know how much the Lord of them is more beautiful than they: for the first author of beauty made all those things.

dourh@1Esd:13:5 @ For by the greatness of the beauty, and of the creature, the creator of them may be seen, so as to be known thereby.

dourh@1Esd:13:6 @ But yet as to these they are less to be blamed. For they perhaps err, seeking God, and desirous to find him.

dourh@1Esd:13:8 @ But then again they are not to be pardoned.

dourh@1Esd:13:9 @ For if they were able to know so much as to make a judgment of the world: how did they not more easily find out the Lord thereof?

dourh@1Esd:13:10 @ But unhappy are they, and their hope is among the dead, who have called gods the works of the hands of men, gold and silver, the inventions of art, and the resemblances of beasts, or an unprofitable stone the work of an ancient hand.

dourh@1Esd:13:12 @ And useth the chips of his work to dress his meat:

dourh@1Esd:13:13 @ And taking what was left thereof, which is good for nothing, being a crooked piece of wood, and full of knots, carveth it diligently when he hath nothing else to do, and by the skill of his art fashioneth it and maketh it like the image of a man:

dourh@1Esd:13:16 @ Providing for it, lest it should fall, knowing that it is unable to help itself: for it is an image, and hath need of help.

dourh@1Esd:13:17 @ And then maketh prayer to it, inquiring concerning his substance, and his children, or his marriage. And he is not ashamed to speak to that which hath no life:

dourh@1Esd:13:18 @ And for health he maketh suspplication to the weak, and for life prayeth to that which is dead, and for help calleth upon that which is unprofitable:

dourh@1Esd:13:19 @ And for a good journey he petitioneth him that cannot walk: and for getting, and for working, and for the event of all things he asketh him that is unable to do any thing.

dourh@1Esd:14:1 @ Again, another designing to sail, and beginning to make his voyage through the raging waves, calleth upon a piece of wood more frail than the wood that carrieth him.

dourh@1Esd:14:4 @ Shewing that thou art able to save out of all things, yea though a man went to sea without art.

dourh@1Esd:14:5 @ But that the works of thy wisdom might not be idle: therefore men also trust their lives even to a little wood, and passing over the sea by ship are saved.

dourh@1Esd:14:6 @ And from the beginning also when the proud giants perished, the hope of the world fleeing to a vessel, which was governed by thy hand, left to the world seed of generation.

dourh@1Esd:14:9 @ But to God the wicked and his wickedness are hateful alike.

dourh@1Esd:14:10 @ For that which is made, together with him that made it, shall suffer torments.

dourh@1Esd:14:11 @ Therefore there shall be no respect had even to the idols of the Gentiles: because the creatures of God are turned to an abomination, and a temptation to the souls of men, and a snare to the feet of the unwise.

dourh@1Esd:14:14 @ For by the vanity of men they came into the world: and therefore they shall be found to come shortly to an end.

dourh@1Esd:14:15 @ For a father being afflicted with bitter grief, made to himself the image of his son who was quickly taken away: and him who then had died as a man, he began now to worship as a god, and appointed him rites and sacrifices among his servants.

dourh@1Esd:14:16 @ Then in process of time, wicked custom prevailing, this error was kept as a law, and statues were worshipped by the commandment of tyrants.

dourh@1Esd:14:17 @ And those whom men could not honour in presence, because they dwelt far off, they brought their resemblance from afar, and made an express image of the king whom they had a mind to honour: that by this their diligence, they might honour as present, him that was absent.

dourh@1Esd:14:18 @ And to worshipping of these, the singular diligence also of the artificer helped to set forward the ignorant.

dourh@1Esd:14:19 @ For he being willing to please him that employed him, laboured with all his art to make the resemblance in the best manner.

dourh@1Esd:14:20 @ And the multitude of men, carried away by the beauty of the work, took him now for a god that a little before was but honoured as a man.

dourh@1Esd:14:21 @ And this was the occasion of deceiving human life: for men serving either their affection, or their kings, gave the incommunicable name to stones and wood.

dourh@1Esd:14:22 @ And it was not enough for them to err about the knowledge of God, but whereas they lived in a great war of ignorance, they call so many and so great evils peace.

dourh@1Esd:14:25 @ And all things are mingled together, blood, murder, theft and dissimulation, corruption and unfaithfulness, tumults and perjury, disquieting of the good,

dourh@1Esd:14:29 @ For whilst they trust in idols, which are without life, though they swear amiss, they look not to be hurt.

dourh@1Esd:14:30 @ But for two things they shall be justly punished, because they have thought not well of God, giving heed to idols, and have sworn unjustly, in guile despising justice.

dourh@1Esd:15:3 @ For to know thee is perfect justice: and to know thy justice, and thy power, is the root of immortality.

dourh@1Esd:15:5 @ The sight whereof enticeth the fool to lust after it, and he loveth the lifeless figure of a dead image.

dourh@1Esd:15:6 @ The lovers of evil things deserve to have no better things to trust in, both they that make them, and they that love them,and they that worship them.

dourh@1Esd:15:7 @ The potter also tempering soft earth, with labour fashioneth every vessel for our service, and of the same clay he maketh both vessels that are for clean uses, and likewise such as serve to the contrary: but what is the use of these vessels, the potter is the judge.

dourh@1Esd:15:8 @ And of the same clay by a vain labour he maketh a god: he who a little before was made of earth himself, and a little after returneth to the same out of which he was taken, when his life which was lent him shall be called for again.

dourh@1Esd:15:9 @ But his care is, not that he shall labour, nor that his life is short, but he striveth with the goldsmiths and silversmiths: and he endeavoureth to do like the workers in brass, and counteth it a glory to make vain things.

dourh@1Esd:15:11 @ Forasmuch as he knew not his maker and him that inspired into him the soul that worketh, and that breathed into him a living spirit.

dourh@1Esd:15:12 @ Yea and they have counted our life a pastime, and the business of life to be gain, and that we must be getting every way, even out of evil.

dourh@1Esd:15:15 @ For they have esteemed all the idols of the heathens for gods, which neither have the use of eyes to see, nor noses to draw breath, nor ears to hear, nor fingers of hands to handle, and as for their feet, they are slow to walk.

dourh@1Esd:15:16 @ For man made them: and he that borroweth his own breath, fashioned them. For no man can make a god like to himself.

dourh@1Esd:15:18 @ Moreover they worship also the vilest creatures: but things without sense compared to these, are worse than they.

dourh@1Esd:16:1 @ For these things, and by the like things to these, they were worthily punished, and were destroyed by a multitude of beasts.

dourh@1Esd:16:3 @ To the end that they indeed desiring food, by means of those things that were shewn and sent among them, might loathe even that which was necessary to satisfy their desire. But these, after suffering want for a short time, tasted a new meat.

dourh@1Esd:16:4 @ For it was requisite that inevitable destruction should come upon them that exercised tyranny: but to these it should only be shewn how their enemies were destroyed.

dourh@1Esd:16:6 @ But thy wrath endured not for ever, but they were troubled for a short time for their correction, having a sign of salvation to put them in remembrance of the commandment of thy law.

dourh@1Esd:16:7 @ For he that turned to it, was not healed by that which he saw, but by thee the Saviour of all.

dourh@1Esd:16:8 @ And in this thou didst shew to our enemies, that thou art he who deliverest from all evil.

dourh@1Esd:16:9 @ For the bitings of locusts, and of flies killed them, and there was found no remedy for their life: because they were worthy to be destroyed by such things.

dourh@1Esd:16:11 @ For they were examined for the remembrance of thy words, and were quickly healed, lest falling into deep forgetfulness, they might not be able to use thy help.

dourh@1Esd:16:13 @ For it is thou, O Lord, that hast power of life and death, and leadest down to the gates of death, and bringest back again:

dourh@1Esd:16:15 @ But it is impossible to escape thy hand.

dourh@1Esd:16:16 @ For the wicked that denied to know thee, were scourged by the strength of thy arm, being persecuted by strange waters, and hail, and rain, and consumed by fire.

dourh@1Esd:16:19 @ And at another time the fire, above its own power, burned in the midst of water, to destroy the fruits of a wicked land.

dourh@1Esd:16:21 @ For thy sustenance shewed thy sweetness to thy children, and serving every man's will, it was turned to what every man liked.

dourh@1Esd:16:24 @ For the creature serving thee the Creator, is made fierce against the unjust for their punishment; and abateth its strength for the benefit of them that trust in thee.

dourh@1Esd:16:25 @ Therefore even then it was transformed into all things, and was obedient to thy grace that nourisheth all, according to the will of them that desired it of thee.

dourh@1Esd:16:28 @ That it might be known to all, that we ought to prevent the sun to bless thee, and adore thee at the dawning of the light.

dourh@1Esd:17:2 @ For while the wicked thought to be able to have dominion over the holy nation, they themselves being fettered with the bonds of darkness, and a long night, shut up in their houses, lay there exiled from the eternal providence.

dourh@1Esd:17:3 @ And while they thought to lie hid in their obscure sins, they were scattered under a dark veil of forgetfulness, being horribly afraid and troubled with exceeding great astonishment.

dourh@1Esd:17:4 @ For neither did the den that held them, keep them from fear: for noises coming down troubled them, and sad visions appearing to them, affrighted them.

dourh@1Esd:17:6 @ But there appeared to them a sudden fire, very dreadful: and being struck with the fear of that face, which was not seen, they thought the things which they saw to be worse:

dourh@1Esd:17:8 @ For they who promised to drive away fears and troubles from a sick soul, were sick themselves of a fear worthy to be laughed at.

dourh@1Esd:17:12 @ And while there is less expectation from within, the greater doth it count the ignorance of that cause which bringeth the torment.

dourh@1Esd:17:17 @ For they were all bound together with one chain of darkness. Whether it were a whistling wind, or the melodious voice of birds, among the spreading branches of trees, or a fall of water running down with violence,

dourh@1Esd:17:18 @ Or the mighty noise of stones tumbling down, or the running that could not be seen of beasts playing together, or the roaring voice of wild beasts, or a rebounding echo from the highest mountains: these things made them to swoon for fear.

dourh@1Esd:17:20 @ But over them only was spread a heavy night, an image of that darkness which was to come upon them. But they were to themselves more grievous than the darkness.

dourh@1Esd:18:4 @ The others indeed were worthy to be deprived of light, and imprisoned in darkness, who kept thy children shut up, by whom the pure light of the law was to be given to the world.

dourh@1Esd:18:5 @ And whereas they thought to kill the babes of the just, one child being cast forth, and saved, to reprove them, thou tookest away a multitude of their children, and destroyedst them all together in a mighty water.

dourh@1Esd:18:6 @ For that night was known before by our fathers, that assuredly knowing what oaths they had trusted to, they might be of better courage.

dourh@1Esd:18:12 @ So all alike had innumerable dead, with one kind of death. Neither were the living sufficient to bury them; for in one moment the noblest offspring of them was destroyed.

dourh@1Esd:18:13 @ For whereas they would not believe any thing before by reason of the enchantments, then first upon the destruction of the firstborn, they acknowledged the people to be of God.

dourh@1Esd:18:15 @ Thy almighty word leapt down from heaven from thy royal throne, as a fierce conqueror into the midst of the land of destruction.

dourh@1Esd:18:16 @ With a sharp sword carrying thy unfeigned commandment, and he stood and filled all things with death, and standing on the earth reached even to heaven.

dourh@1Esd:18:20 @ But the just also were afterwards touched by an assault of death, and there was a disturbance of the multitude in the wilderness: but thy wrath did not long continue.

dourh@1Esd:18:21 @ For a blameless man made haste to pray for the people, bringing forth the shield of his ministry, prayer, and by incense making supplication, withstood the wrath, and put an end to the calamity, shewing that he was thy servant.

dourh@1Esd:18:23 @ For when they were now fallen down dead by heaps one upon another, he stood between and stayed the assault, and cut off the way to the living.

dourh@1Esd:18:24 @ For in the priestly robe which he wore, was the whole world: and in the four rows of the stones the glory of the fathers was graven, and thy majesty was written upon the diadem of his head.

dourh@1Esd:18:25 @ And to these the destroyer gave place, and was afraid of them: for the proof only of wrath was enough.

dourh@1Esd:19:1 @ But as to the wicked, even to the end there came upon them wrath without mercy. For he knew before also what they would do:

dourh@1Esd:19:2 @ For when they had given them leave to depart, and had sent them away with great care, they repented, and pursued after them.

dourh@1Esd:19:3 @ For whilst they were yet mourning, and lamenting at the graves of the dead, they took up another foolish device: and pursued them as fugitives whom they had pressed to be gone:

dourh@1Esd:19:4 @ For a necessity, of which they were worthy, brought them to this end: and they lost the remembrance of those things which had happened, that their punishment might fill up what was wanting to their torments:

dourh@1Esd:19:6 @ For every creature according to its kind was fashioned again as from the beginning, obeying thy commandments, that thy children might be kept without hurt.

dourh@1Esd:19:12 @ For to satisfy their desire, the quail came up to them from the sea: and punishments came upon the sinners, not without foregoing signs by the force of thunders: for they suffered justly according to their own wickedness.

dourh@1Esd:19:13 @ For they exercised a more detestable inhospitality than any: others indeed received not strangers unknown to them, but these brought their guests into bondage that had deserved well of them.

dourh@1Esd:19:18 @ For the things of the land were turned into things of the water: and the things before swam in the water passed upon the land.

dourh@1Esd:19:20 @ On the other side, the flames wasted not the flesh of corruptible animals walking therein, neither did they melt that good food, which was apt to melt as ice. For in all things thou didst magnify thy people, O Lord, and didst honour them, and didst not despise them, but didst assist them at all times, and in every place.

dourh@PssSol:1:4 @ For thou art just in all that thou hast done to us, and all thy works are true, and thy ways right, and all thy judgments true.

dourh@PssSol:1:5 @ For thou hast executed true judgments in all the things that thou hast brought upon us, and upon Jerusalem the holy city of our fathers: for according to truth and judgment, thou hast brought all these things upon us for our sins.

dourh@PssSol:1:7 @ And we have not hearkened to thy commandments, nor have we observed nor done as thou hadst commanded us, that it might go well with us.

dourh@PssSol:1:8 @ Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment:

dourh@PssSol:1:9 @ And thou hast delivered us into the hands of our enemies that are unjust, and most wicked, and prevaricators, and to a king unjust, and most wicked beyond all that axe upon the earth.

dourh@PssSol:1:10 @ And now we cannot open our mouths: we are become a shame and reproach to thy servants, and to them that worship thee.

dourh@PssSol:1:13 @ To whom thou hast spoken, promising that thou wouldst multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is on the sea shore.

dourh@PssSol:1:17 @ As in holocausts of rams, and bullocks, and as in thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be made in thy sight this day, that it may please thee: for there is no confusion to them that trust in thee.

dourh@PssSol:1:19 @ Put us not to confusion, but deal. with us according to thy meekness, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.

dourh@PssSol:1:20 @ And deliver us according to thy wonderful works, and give glory to thy name, O Lord:

dourh@PssSol:1:21 @ And let all them be confounded that shew evils to thy servants, let them be confounded in all thy might, and let their strength be broken.

dourh@PssSol:1:23 @ Now the king's servants that had cast them in, ceased not to heat the furnace with brimstone, and tow, and pitch, and dry sticks,

dourh@PssSol:1:26 @ But the angel of the Lord went down with Azarias and his companions into the furnace: and he drove the flame of the fire out of the furnace,

dourh@PssSol:1:27 @ And made the midst of the furnace like the blowing of a wind bringing dew, and the fire touched them not at all, nor troubled them, nor did them any harm.

dourh@PssSol:1:29 @ Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of our fathers: and worthy to be praised, and glorified, and exalted above all for ever: and blessed is the holy name of thy glory: and worthy to be praised, and exalted above all in all ages.

dourh@PssSol:1:30 @ Blessed art thou in the holy temple of thy glory: and exceedingly to be praised, and exceeding glorious for ever.

dourh@PssSol:1:31 @ Blessed art thou on the throne of thy kingdom, and exceedingly to be praised, and exalted above all for ever.

dourh@PssSol:1:32 @ Blessed art thou, that beholdest the depths, and sittest upon the cherubims: and worthy to be praised and exalted above all for ever.

dourh@PssSol:1:66 @ O give thanks to the Lord, because he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever and ever.

dourh@PssSol:2:4 @ The little fountain which grew into a river, and was turned into a light, and into the sun, and abounded into many waters, is Esther, whom the king married, and made queen.

dourh@PssSol:2:6 @ The nations that were assembled are they that endeavoured to destroy the name of the Jews.

dourh@PssSol:2:7 @ And my nation is Israel, who cried to the Lord, and the Lord saved his people: and he delivered us from all evils, and hath wrought great signs and wonders among the nations:

dourh@PssSol:2:9 @ And both lots came to the day appointed already from that time before God to all nations:

dourh@PssSol:2:11 @ And these days shall be observed in the month of Adar on the fourteenth, and fifteenth day of the same month. with all diligence, and joy of the people gathered into one assembly, throughout all the generations hereafter of the people of Israel.

dourh@PssSol:3:1 @ In the fourth year of the reign of Ptolemy and Cleopatra, Dositheus, who said he was a priest, and of the Levitical race, and Ptolemy his son brought this epistle of Phurim, which they said Lysimachus the son of Ptolemy had interpreted in Jerusalem.

dourh@PssSol:3:6 @ And behold two great dragons came forth ready to fight one against another.

dourh@PssSol:3:7 @ And at their cry all nations were stirred up to fight against the nation of the just.

dourh@PssSol:3:10 @ And they cried to God: and as they were crying, a little fountain grew into a very great river, and abounded into many waters.

dourh@PssSol:3:12 @ And when Mardochai had seen this, and arose out of his bed, he was thinking what God would do: and he kept it fixed in his mind, desirous to know what the dream should signify.

dourh@PssSol:4:2 @ And when he understood their designs, and had diligently searched into their projects, he learned that they went about to lay violent hands on king Artaxerxes, and he told the king thereof.

dourh@PssSol:4:3 @ Then the king had them both examined, and after they had confessed, commanded them to be put to death.

dourh@PssSol:4:4 @ But the king made a record of what was done: and Mardochai also committed the memory of the thing to writing.

dourh@PssSol:4:5 @ And the king commanded him, to abide in the court of the palace, and gave him presents for the information.

dourh@PssSol:4:6 @ But Aman the son of Amadathi the Bugite was in great honour with the king, and sought to hurt Mardochai and his people, because of the two eunuchs of the king who were put to death.

dourh@PssSol:5:1 @ And this was the copy of the letter: Artaxerxes the great king who reigneth from India to Ethiopia, to the princes and governors of the hundred and twenty-seven provinces, that are subject to his empire, greeting.

dourh@PssSol:5:2 @ Whereas I reigned over many nations, and had brought all the world under my dominion, I was not willing to abuse the greatness of my power, but to govern my subjects with clemency and lenity, that they might live quietly without any terror. and might enjoy peace, which is desired by all men.

dourh@PssSol:5:4 @ Told me that there was a people scattered through the whole world, which used new laws, and acted against the customs of all nations, despised the commandments of kings, and violated by their opposition the concord of all nations.

dourh@PssSol:5:5 @ Wherefore having learned this, and seeing one nation in opposition to all mankind using perverse laws, and going against our commandments, and disturbing the peace and concord of the provinces subject to us,

dourh@PssSol:5:7 @ That these wicked men going down to hell in one day, may restore to our empire the peace which they had disturbed.

dourh@PssSol:5:9 @ And said: O Lord, Lord, almighty king, for all things are in thy power, and there is none that can resist thy will, if thou determine to save Israel.

dourh@PssSol:5:12 @ Thou knowest all things, and thou knowest that it was not out of pride and contempt, or any desire of glory, that I refused to worship the proud Aman,

dourh@PssSol:5:14 @ But I feared lest I should transfer the honour of my God to a man, and lest I should adore any one except my God.

dourh@PssSol:5:15 @ And now, O Lord, O king, O God of Abraham, have mercy on thy people, be- cause our enemies resolve to destroy us, and extinguish thy inheritance.

dourh@PssSol:5:17 @ Hear my supplication, and be merciful to thy lot and inheritance, and turn our mourning into joy, that we may live and praise thy name, 0 Lord, and shut not the mouths of them that sing to thee.

dourh@PssSol:5:18 @ And all Israel with like mind and supplication cried to the Lord, because they saw certain death hanging over their heads.

dourh@PssSol:6:1 @ Queen Esther also, fearing the danger that was at hand, had recourse to the Lord.

dourh@PssSol:6:2 @ And when she had laid away her royal apparel, she put on garments suitable for weeping and mourning: instead of divers precious ointments, she covered her head with ashes and dung, and she humbled her body with fasts: and all the places in which before she was accustomed to rejoice, she filled with her torn hair.

dourh@PssSol:6:3 @ And she prayed to the Lord the God of Israel, saying: O my Lord, who alone art our king, help me a desolate woman, and who have no other helper but thee.

dourh@PssSol:6:5 @ I have heard of my father that thou, O Lord, didst take Israel from among all nations, and our fathers from all their predecessors, to possess them as an everlasting inheritance, and thou hast done to them as thou hast promised.

dourh@PssSol:8:7 @ Now this is proved both from ancient histories, and by the things which are done daily, how the good designs of kings are depraved by the evil suggestions of certain men.
