Joshua:2:2 @ And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, "Behold, men have come here tonight from the children of Israel to search out the country."
nkjv@Joshua:2:3 @ So the king of Jericho sent to Rahab, saying, "Bring out the men who have come to you, who have entered your house, for they have come to search out all the country."
nkjv@Joshua:2:9 @ and said to the men: "I know that the LORD has given you the land, that the terror of you has fallen on us, and that all the inhabitants of the land are fainthearted because of you.
nkjv@Joshua:2:10 @ For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the other side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed.
nkjv@Joshua:2:11 @ And as soon as we heard these things, our hearts melted; neither did there remain any more courage in anyone because of you, for the LORD your God, He is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.
nkjv@Joshua:2:12 @ Now therefore, I beg you, swear to me by the LORD, since I have shown you kindness, that you also will show kindness to my father's house, and give me a true token,
nkjv@Joshua:2:17 @ So the men said to her: "We will be blameless of this oath of yours which you have made us swear,
nkjv@Joshua:2:20 @ And if you tell this business of ours, then we will be free from your oath which you made us swear."
nkjv@Joshua:2:24 @ And they said to Joshua, "Truly the LORD has delivered all the land into our hands, for indeed all the inhabitants of the country are fainthearted because of us."
nkjv@Joshua:3:1 @ Then Joshua rose early in the morning; and they set out from Acacia Grove and came to the Jordan, he and all the children of Israel, and lodged there before they crossed over.
nkjv@Joshua:3:3 @ and they commanded the people, saying, "When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then you shall set out from your place and go after it.
nkjv@Joshua:3:4 @ Yet there shall be a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure. Do not come near it, that you may know the way by which you must go, for you have not passed this way before."
nkjv@Joshua:3:8 @ You shall command the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, saying, "When you have come to the edge of the water of the Jordan, you shall stand in the Jordan."'
nkjv@Joshua:3:9 @ So Joshua said to the children of Israel, "Come here, and hear the words of the LORD your God."
nkjv@Joshua:3:11 @ Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is crossing over before you into the Jordan.
nkjv@Joshua:3:13 @ And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests who bear the ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, that the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, the waters that come down from upstream, and they shall stand as a heap."
nkjv@Joshua:3:14 @ So it was, when the people set out from their camp to cross over the Jordan, with the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,
nkjv@Joshua:4:14 @ On that day the LORD exalted Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they had feared Moses, all the days of his life.
nkjv@Joshua:4:16 @ "Command the priests who bear the ark of the Testimony to come up from the Jordan."
nkjv@Joshua:4:24 @ that all the peoples of the earth may know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty, that you may fear the LORD your God forever."
nkjv@Joshua:5:1 @ So it was, when all the kings of the Amorites who were on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, that their heart melted; and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the children of Israel.
nkjv@Joshua:5:6 @ For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people who were men of war, who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they did not obey the voice of the LORD--to whom the LORD swore that He would not show them the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers that He would give us, "a land flowing with milk and honey."
nkjv@Joshua:5:12 @ Then the manna ceased on the day after they had eaten the produce of the land; and the children of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate the food of the land of Canaan that year.
nkjv@Joshua:5:14 @ So He said, "No, but as Commander of the army of the LORD I have now come." And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and worshiped, and said to Him, "What does my Lord say to His servant?"
nkjv@Joshua:6:4 @ And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark. But the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets.
nkjv@Joshua:6:5 @ It shall come to pass, when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, that all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the wall of the city will fall down flat. And the people shall go up every man straight before him."
nkjv@Joshua:6:6 @ Then Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, "Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD."
nkjv@Joshua:6:8 @ So it was, when Joshua had spoken to the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the LORD advanced and blew the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
nkjv@Joshua:6:9 @ The armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, while the priests continued blowing the trumpets.
nkjv@Joshua:6:12 @ And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.
nkjv@Joshua:6:13 @ Then seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually and blew with the trumpets. And the armed men went before them. But the rear guard came after the ark of the LORD, while the priests continued blowing the trumpets.
nkjv@Joshua:6:15 @ But it came to pass on the seventh day that they rose early, about the dawning of the day, and marched around the city seven times in the same manner. On that day only they marched around the city seven times.
nkjv@Joshua:6:20 @ So the people shouted when the priests blew the trumpets. And it happened when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat. Then the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
nkjv@Joshua:7:3 @ And they returned to Joshua and said to him, "Do not let all the people go up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and attack Ai. Do not weary all the people there, for the people of Ai are few."
nkjv@Joshua:7:5 @ And the men of Ai struck down about thirty-six men, for they chased them from before the gate as far as Shebarim, and struck them down on the descent; therefore the hearts of the people melted and became like water.
nkjv@Joshua:7:6 @ Then Joshua tore his clothes, and fell to the earth on his face before the ark of the LORD until evening, he and the elders of Israel; and they put dust on their heads.
nkjv@Joshua:7:9 @ For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear it, and surround us, and cut off our name from the earth. Then what will You do for Your great name?"
nkjv@Joshua:7:16 @ So Joshua rose early in the morning and brought Israel by their tribes, and the tribe of Judah was taken.
nkjv@Joshua:7:21 @ When I saw among the spoils a beautiful Babylonian garment, two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. And there they are, hidden in the earth in the midst of my tent, with the silver under it."
nkjv@Joshua:8:10 @ Then Joshua rose up early in the morning and mustered the people, and went up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai.
nkjv@Joshua:8:11 @ And all the people of war who were with him went up and drew near; and they came before the city and camped on the north side of Ai. Now a valley lay between them and Ai.
nkjv@Joshua:8:13 @ And when they had set the people, all the army that was on the north of the city, and its rear guard on the west of the city, Joshua went that night into the midst of the valley.
nkjv@Joshua:8:14 @ Now it happened, when the king of Ai saw it, that the men of the city hurried and rose early and went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at an appointed place before the plain. But he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.
nkjv@Joshua:8:18 @ Then the LORD said to Joshua, "Stretch out the spear that is in your hand toward Ai, for I will give it into your hand." And Joshua stretched out the spear that was in his hand toward the city.
nkjv@Joshua:8:26 @ For Joshua did not draw back his hand, with which he stretched out the spear, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.
nkjv@Joshua:9:1 @ And it came to pass when all the kings who were on this side of the Jordan, in the hills and in the lowland and in all the coasts of the Great Sea toward Lebanon--the Hittite, the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite--heard about it,
nkjv@Joshua:9:3 @ But when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai,
nkjv@Joshua:9:9 @ So they said to him: "From a very far country your servants have come, because of the name of the LORD your God; for we have heard of His fame, and all that He did in Egypt,
nkjv@Joshua:9:16 @ And it happened at the end of three days, after they had made a covenant with them, that they heard that they were their neighbors who dwelt near them.
nkjv@Joshua:9:17 @ Then the children of Israel journeyed and came to their cities on the third day. Now their cities were Gibeon, Chephirah, Beeroth, and Kirjath Jearim.
nkjv@Joshua:9:22 @ Then Joshua called for them, and he spoke to them, saying, "Why have you deceived us, saying, "We are very far from you,' when you dwell near us?
nkjv@Joshua:9:24 @ So they answered Joshua and said, "Because your servants were clearly told that the LORD your God commanded His servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; therefore we were very much afraid for our lives because of you, and have done this thing.
nkjv@Joshua:10:1 @ Now it came to pass when Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai and had utterly destroyed it--as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king--and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were among them,
nkjv@Joshua:10:2 @ that they feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
nkjv@Joshua:10:8 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, "Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hand; not a man of them shall stand before you."
nkjv@Joshua:10:19 @ And do not stay there yourselves, but pursue your enemies, and attack their rear guard. Do not allow them to enter their cities, for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand."
nkjv@Joshua:10:24 @ So it was, when they brought out those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the captains of the men of war who went with him, "Come near, put your feet on the necks of these kings." And they drew near and put their feet on their necks.
nkjv@Joshua:11:1 @ And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor heard these things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, to the king of Shimron, to the king of Achshaph,
nkjv@Joshua:11:20 @ For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that He might utterly destroy them, and that they might receive no mercy, but that He might destroy them, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
nkjv@Joshua:13:1 @ Now Joshua was old, advanced in years. And the LORD said to him: "You are old, advanced in years, and there remains very much land yet to be possessed.
nkjv@Joshua:13:4 @ from the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians as far as Aphek, to the border of the Amorites;
nkjv@Joshua:14:7 @ I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land, and I brought back word to him as it was in my heart.
nkjv@Joshua:14:8 @ Nevertheless my brethren who went up with me made the heart of the people melt, but I wholly followed the LORD my God.
nkjv@Joshua:14:10 @ And now, behold, the LORD has kept me alive, as He said, these forty-five years, ever since the LORD spoke this word to Moses while Israel wandered in the wilderness; and now, here I am this day, eighty-five years old.
nkjv@Joshua:14:12 @ Now therefore, give me this mountain of which the LORD spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how the Anakim were there, and that the cities were great and fortified. It may be that the LORD will be with me, and I shall be able to drive them out as the LORD said."
nkjv@Joshua:15:9 @ Then the border went around from the top of the hill to the fountain of the water of Nephtoah, and extended to the cities of Mount Ephron. And the border went around to Baalah (which is Kirjath Jearim).
nkjv@Joshua:15:10 @ Then the border turned westward from Baalah to Mount Seir, passed along to the side of Mount Jearim on the north (which is Chesalon), went down to Beth Shemesh, and passed on to Timnah.
nkjv@Joshua:15:46 @ from Ekron to the sea, all that lay near Ashdod, with their villages;
nkjv@Joshua:15:60 @ Kirjath Baal (which is Kirjath Jearim) and Rabbah: two cities with their villages.
nkjv@Joshua:17:4 @ And they came near before Eleazar the priest, before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the rulers, saying, "The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers." Therefore, according to the commandment of the LORD, he gave them an inheritance among their father's brothers.
nkjv@Joshua:17:15 @ So Joshua answered them, "If you are a great people, then go up to the forest country and clear a place for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and the giants, since the mountains of Ephraim are too confined for you."
nkjv@Joshua:18:13 @ The border went over from there toward Luz, to the side of Luz (which is Bethel) southward; and the border descended to Ataroth Addar, near the hill that lies on the south side of Lower Beth Horon.
nkjv@Joshua:18:14 @ Then the border extended around the west side to the south, from the hill that lies before Beth Horon southward; and it ended at Kirjath Baal (which is Kirjath Jearim), a city of the children of Judah. This was the west side.
nkjv@Joshua:18:15 @ The south side began at the end of Kirjath Jearim, and the border extended on the west and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
nkjv@Joshua:19:46 @ Me Jarkon, and Rakkon, with the region near Joppa.
nkjv@Joshua:20:4 @ And when he flees to one of those cities, and stands at the entrance of the gate of the city, and declares his case in the hearing of the elders of that city, they shall take him into the city as one of them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.
nkjv@Joshua:21:1 @ Then the heads of the fathers' houses of the Levites came near to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the fathers' houses of the tribes of the children of Israel.
nkjv@Joshua:22:5 @ But take careful heed to do the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways, to keep His commandments, to hold fast to Him, and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul."
nkjv@Joshua:22:11 @ Now the children of Israel heard someone say, "Behold, the children of Reuben, the children of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh have built an altar on the frontier of the land of Canaan, in the region of the Jordan--on the children of Israel's side."
nkjv@Joshua:22:12 @ And when the children of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered together at Shiloh to go to war against them.
nkjv@Joshua:22:24 @ But in fact we have done it for fear, for a reason, saying, "In time to come your descendants may speak to our descendants, saying, "What have you to do with the LORD God of Israel?
nkjv@Joshua:22:25 @ For the LORD has made the Jordan a border between you and us, you children of Reuben and children of Gad. You have no part in the LORD." So your descendants would make our descendants cease fearing the LORD.'
nkjv@Joshua:22:30 @ Now when Phinehas the priest and the rulers of the congregation, the heads of the divisions of Israel who were with him, heard the words that the children of Reuben, the children of Gad, and the children of Manasseh spoke, it pleased them.
nkjv@Joshua:23:7 @ and lest you go among these nations, these who remain among you. You shall not make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause anyone to swear by them; you shall not serve them nor bow down to them,
nkjv@Joshua:23:14 @ "Behold, this day I am going the way of all the earth. And you know in all your hearts and in all your souls that not one thing has failed of all the good things which the LORD your God spoke concerning you. All have come to pass for you; not one word of them has failed.
nkjv@Joshua:24:14 @ "Now therefore, fear the LORD, serve Him in sincerity and in truth, and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve the LORD!
nkjv@Joshua:24:23 @ "Now therefore," he said, "put away the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to the LORD God of Israel."
nkjv@Joshua:24:27 @ And Joshua said to all the people, "Behold, this stone shall be a witness to us, for it has heard all the words of the LORD which He spoke to us. It shall therefore be a witness to you, lest you deny your God."
nkjv@Joshua:24:29 @ Now it came to pass after these things that Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being one hundred and ten years old.
nkjv@Judges:1:16 @ Now the children of the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, went up from the City of Palms with the children of Judah into the Wilderness of Judah, which lies in the South near Arad; and they went and dwelt among the people.
nkjv@Judges:2:2 @ And you shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall tear down their altars.' But you have not obeyed My voice. Why have you done this?
nkjv@Judges:2:8 @ Now Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died when he was one hundred and ten years old.
nkjv@Judges:3:8 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and He sold them into the hand of Cushan-Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia; and the children of Israel served Cushan-Rishathaim eight years.
nkjv@Judges:3:11 @ So the land had rest for forty years. Then Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
nkjv@Judges:3:14 @ So the children of Israel served Eglon king of Moab eighteen years.
nkjv@Judges:3:30 @ So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest for eighty years.
nkjv@Judges:4:3 @ And the children of Israel cried out to the LORD; for Jabin had nine hundred chariots of iron, and for twenty years he had harshly oppressed the children of Israel.
nkjv@Judges:4:11 @ Now Heber the Kenite, of the children of Hobab the father-in-law of Moses, had separated himself from the Kenites and pitched his tent near the terebinth tree at Zaanaim, which is beside Kedesh.
nkjv@Judges:4:18 @ And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, "Turn aside, my lord, turn aside to me; do not fear." And when he had turned aside with her into the tent, she covered him with a blanket.
nkjv@Judges:4:21 @ Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent peg and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly to him and drove the peg into his temple, and it went down into the ground; for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.
nkjv@Judges:5:3 @ "Hear, O kings! Give ear, O princes! I, even I, will sing to the LORD; I will sing praise to the LORD God of Israel.
nkjv@Judges:5:4 @ "LORD, when You went out from Seir, When You marched from the field of Edom, The earth trembled and the heavens poured, The clouds also poured water;
nkjv@Judges:5:8 @ They chose new gods; Then there was war in the gates; Not a shield or spear was seen among forty thousand in Israel.
nkjv@Judges:5:9 @ My heart is with the rulers of Israel Who offered themselves willingly with the people. Bless the LORD!
nkjv@Judges:5:14 @ From Ephraim were those whose roots were in Amalek. After you, Benjamin, with your peoples, From Machir rulers came down, And from Zebulun those who bear the recruiter's staff.
nkjv@Judges:5:15 @ And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; As Issachar, so was Barak Sent into the valley under his command; Among the divisions of Reuben There were great resolves of heart.
nkjv@Judges:5:16 @ Why did you sit among the sheepfolds, To hear the pipings for the flocks? The divisions of Reuben have great searchings of heart.
nkjv@Judges:5:31 @ "Thus let all Your enemies perish, O LORD! But let those who love Him be like the sun When it comes out in full strength." So the land had rest for forty years.
nkjv@Judges:6:1 @ Then the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD. So the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian for seven years,
nkjv@Judges:6:4 @ Then they would encamp against them and destroy the produce of the earth as far as Gaza, and leave no sustenance for Israel, neither sheep nor ox nor donkey.
nkjv@Judges:6:10 @ Also I said to you, "I am the LORD your God; do not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell." But you have not obeyed My voice."'
nkjv@Judges:6:12 @ And the Angel of the LORD appeared to him, and said to him, "The LORD is with you, you mighty man of valor!"
nkjv@Judges:6:23 @ Then the LORD said to him, "Peace be with you; do not fear, you shall not die."
nkjv@Judges:6:25 @ Now it came to pass the same night that the LORD said to him, "Take your father's young bull, the second bull of seven years old, and tear down the altar of Baal that your father has, and cut down the wooden image that is beside it;
nkjv@Judges:6:27 @ So Gideon took ten men from among his servants and did as the LORD had said to him. But because he feared his father's household and the men of the city too much to do it by day, he did it by night.
nkjv@Judges:6:28 @ And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, there was the altar of Baal, torn down; and the wooden image that was beside it was cut down, and the second bull was being offered on the altar which had been built.
nkjv@Judges:6:38 @ And it was so. When he rose early the next morning and squeezed the fleece together, he wrung the dew out of the fleece, a bowlful of water.
nkjv@Judges:7:1 @ Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him rose early and encamped beside the well of Harod, so that the camp of the Midianites was on the north side of them by the hill of Moreh in the valley.
nkjv@Judges:7:3 @ Now therefore, proclaim in the hearing of the people, saying, "Whoever is fearful and afraid, let him turn and depart at once from Mount Gilead."' And twenty-two thousand of the people returned, and ten thousand remained.
nkjv@Judges:7:11 @ and you shall hear what they say; and afterward your hands shall be strengthened to go down against the camp." Then he went down with Purah his servant to the outpost of the armed men who were in the camp.
nkjv@Judges:7:15 @ And so it was, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worshiped. He returned to the camp of Israel, and said, "Arise, for the LORD has delivered the camp of Midian into your hand."
nkjv@Judges:8:7 @ So Gideon said, "For this cause, when the LORD has delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, then I will tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers!"
nkjv@Judges:8:9 @ So he also spoke to the men of Penuel, saying, "When I come back in peace, I will tear down this tower!"
nkjv@Judges:8:15 @ Then he came to the men of Succoth and said, "Here are Zebah and Zalmunna, about whom you ridiculed me, saying, "Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your weary men?"'
nkjv@Judges:8:24 @ Then Gideon said to them, "I would like to make a request of you, that each of you would give me the earrings from his plunder." For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.
nkjv@Judges:8:25 @ So they answered, "We will gladly give them." And they spread out a garment, and each man threw into it the earrings from his plunder.
nkjv@Judges:8:26 @ Now the weight of the gold earrings that he requested was one thousand seven hundred shekels of gold, besides the crescent ornaments, pendants, and purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that were around their camels' necks.
nkjv@Judges:8:28 @ Thus Midian was subdued before the children of Israel, so that they lifted their heads no more. And the country was quiet for forty years in the days of Gideon.
nkjv@Judges:9:2 @ "Please speak in the hearing of all the men of Shechem: "Which is better for you, that all seventy of the sons of Jerubbaal reign over you, or that one reign over you?' Remember that I am your own flesh and bone."
nkjv@Judges:9:3 @ And his mother's brothers spoke all these words concerning him in the hearing of all the men of Shechem; and their heart was inclined to follow Abimelech, for they said, "He is our brother."
nkjv@Judges:9:21 @ And Jotham ran away and fled; and he went to Beer and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.
nkjv@Judges:9:22 @ After Abimelech had reigned over Israel three years,
nkjv@Judges:9:30 @ When Zebul, the ruler of the city, heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was aroused.
nkjv@Judges:9:33 @ And it shall be, as soon as the sun is up in the morning, that you shall rise early and rush upon the city; and when he and the people who are with him come out against you, you may then do to them as you find opportunity."
nkjv@Judges:9:46 @ Now when all the men of the tower of Shechem had heard that, they entered the stronghold of the temple of the god Berith.
nkjv@Judges:9:52 @ So Abimelech came as far as the tower and fought against it; and he drew near the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
nkjv@Judges:9:54 @ Then he called quickly to the young man, his armorbearer, and said to him, "Draw your sword and kill me, lest men say of me, "A woman killed him."' So his young man thrust him through, and he died.
nkjv@Judges:10:2 @ He judged Israel twenty-three years; and he died and was buried in Shamir.
nkjv@Judges:10:3 @ After him arose Jair, a Gileadite; and he judged Israel twenty-two years.
nkjv@Judges:10:8 @ From that year they harassed and oppressed the children of Israel for eighteen years--all the children of Israel who were on the other side of the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, in Gilead.
nkjv@Judges:11:26 @ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and its villages, in Aroer and its villages, and in all the cities along the banks of the Arnon, for three hundred years, why did you not recover them within that time?
nkjv@Judges:11:40 @ that the daughters of Israel went four days each year to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite.
nkjv@Judges:12:7 @ And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died and was buried among the cities of Gilead.
nkjv@Judges:12:9 @ He had thirty sons. And he gave away thirty daughters in marriage, and brought in thirty daughters from elsewhere for his sons. He judged Israel seven years.
nkjv@Judges:12:11 @ After him, Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel. He judged Israel ten years.
nkjv@Judges:12:14 @ He had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode on seventy young donkeys. He judged Israel eight years.
nkjv@Judges:13:1 @ Again the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and the LORD delivered them into the hand of the Philistines for forty years.
nkjv@Judges:13:3 @ And the Angel of the LORD appeared to the woman and said to her, "Indeed now, you are barren and have borne no children, but you shall conceive and bear a son.
nkjv@Judges:13:5 @ For behold, you shall conceive and bear a son. And no razor shall come upon his head, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb; and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines."
nkjv@Judges:13:7 @ And He said to me, "Behold, you shall conceive and bear a son. Now drink no wine or similar drink, nor eat anything unclean, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb to the day of his death."'
nkjv@Judges:13:10 @ Then the woman ran in haste and told her husband, and said to him, "Look, the Man who came to me the other day has just now appeared to me!"
nkjv@Judges:13:21 @ When the Angel of the LORD appeared no more to Manoah and his wife, then Manoah knew that He was the Angel of the LORD.

nkjv@Judges:15:12 @ But they said to him, "We have come down to arrest you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines." Then Samson said to them, "Swear to me that you will not kill me yourselves."
nkjv@Judges:15:20 @ And he judged Israel twenty years in the days of the Philistines.
nkjv@Judges:16:15 @ Then she said to him, "How can you say, "I love you,' when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies."
nkjv@Judges:16:17 @ that he told her all his heart, and said to her, "No razor has ever come upon my head, for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother's womb. If I am shaven, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man."
nkjv@Judges:16:18 @ When Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, "Come up once more, for he has told me all his heart." So the lords of the Philistines came up to her and brought the money in their hand.
nkjv@Judges:16:25 @ So it happened, when their hearts were merry, that they said, "Call for Samson, that he may perform for us." So they called for Samson from the prison, and he performed for them. And they stationed him between the pillars.
nkjv@Judges:16:31 @ And his brothers and all his father's household came down and took him, and brought him up and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the tomb of his father Manoah. He had judged Israel twenty years.
nkjv@Judges:17:2 @ And he said to his mother, "The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you, and on which you put a curse, even saying it in my ears--here is the silver with me; I took it." And his mother said, "May you be blessed by the LORD, my son!"
nkjv@Judges:17:10 @ Micah said to him, "Dwell with me, and be a father and a priest to me, and I will give you ten shekels of silver per year, a suit of clothes, and your sustenance." So the Levite went in.
nkjv@Judges:18:2 @ So the children of Dan sent five men of their family from their territory, men of valor from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and search it. They said to them, "Go, search the land." So they went to the mountains of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there.
nkjv@Judges:18:10 @ When you go, you will come to a secure people and a large land. For God has given it into your hands, a place where there is no lack of anything that is on the earth."
nkjv@Judges:18:12 @ Then they went up and encamped in Kirjath Jearim in Judah. (Therefore they call that place Mahaneh Dan to this day. There it is, west of Kirjath Jearim.)
nkjv@Judges:18:20 @ So the priest's heart was glad; and he took the ephod, the household idols, and the carved image, and took his place among the people.
nkjv@Judges:18:22 @ When they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men who were in the houses near Micah's house gathered together and overtook the children of Dan.
nkjv@Judges:18:25 @ And the children of Dan said to him, "Do not let your voice be heard among us, lest angry men fall upon you, and you lose your life, with the lives of your household!"
nkjv@Judges:19:5 @ Then it came to pass on the fourth day that they arose early in the morning, and he stood to depart; but the young woman's father said to his son-in-law, "Refresh your heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward go your way."
nkjv@Judges:19:6 @ So they sat down, and the two of them ate and drank together. Then the young woman's father said to the man, "Please be content to stay all night, and let your heart be merry."
nkjv@Judges:19:8 @ Then he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart, but the young woman's father said, "Please refresh your heart." So they delayed until afternoon; and both of them ate.
nkjv@Judges:19:9 @ And when the man stood to depart--he and his concubine and his servant--his father-in-law, the young woman's father, said to him, "Look, the day is now drawing toward evening; please spend the night. See, the day is coming to an end; lodge here, that your heart may be merry. Tomorrow go your way early, so that you may get home."
nkjv@Judges:19:11 @ They were near Jebus, and the day was far spent; and the servant said to his master, "Come, please, and let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites and lodge in it."
nkjv@Judges:19:13 @ So he said to his servant, "Come, let us draw near to one of these places, and spend the night in Gibeah or in Ramah."
nkjv@Judges:19:14 @ And they passed by and went their way; and the sun went down on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
nkjv@Judges:20:3 @ (Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) Then the children of Israel said, "Tell us, how did this wicked deed happen?"
nkjv@Judges:20:23 @ Then the children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until evening, and asked counsel of the LORD, saying, "Shall I again draw near for battle against the children of my brother Benjamin?" And the LORD said, "Go up against him."
nkjv@Judges:21:4 @ So it was, on the next morning, that the people rose early and built an altar there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings.
nkjv@Judges:21:19 @ Then they said, "In fact, there is a yearly feast of the LORD in Shiloh, which is north of Bethel, on the east side of the highway that goes up from Bethel to Shechem, and south of Lebonah."
nkjv@Ruth:1:4 @ Now they took wives of the women of Moab: the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth. And they dwelt there about ten years.
nkjv@Ruth:1:6 @ Then she arose with her daughters-in-law that she might return from the country of Moab, for she had heard in the country of Moab that the LORD had visited His people by giving them bread.
nkjv@Ruth:1:12 @ Turn back, my daughters, go--for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say I have hope, if I should have a husband tonight and should also bear sons,
nkjv@Ruth:3:7 @ And after Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was cheerful, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain; and she came softly, uncovered his feet, and lay down.
nkjv@Ruth:3:11 @ And now, my daughter, do not fear. I will do for you all that you request, for all the people of my town know that you are a virtuous woman.
nkjv@1Samuel:1:3 @ This man went up from his city yearly to worship and sacrifice to the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. Also the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there.
nkjv@1Samuel:1:7 @ So it was, year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, that she provoked her; therefore she wept and did not eat.
nkjv@1Samuel:1:8 @ Then Elkanah her husband said to her, "Hannah, why do you weep? Why do you not eat? And why is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten sons?"
nkjv@1Samuel:1:13 @ Now Hannah spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she was drunk.
nkjv@1Samuel:1:19 @ Then they rose early in the morning and worshiped before the LORD, and returned and came to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her.
nkjv@1Samuel:1:21 @ Now the man Elkanah and all his house went up to offer to the LORD the yearly sacrifice and his vow.
nkjv@1Samuel:1:22 @ But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, "Not until the child is weaned; then I will take him, that he may appear before the LORD and remain there forever."
nkjv@1Samuel:2:1 @ And Hannah prayed and said: "My heart rejoices in the LORD; My horn is exalted in the LORD. I smile at my enemies, Because I rejoice in Your salvation.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:16 @ And if the man said to him, "They should really burn the fat first; then you may take as much as your heart desires," he would then answer him, "No, but you must give it now; and if not, I will take it by force."
nkjv@1Samuel:2:18 @ But Samuel ministered before the LORD, even as a child, wearing a linen ephod.
nkjv@1Samuel:2:19 @ Moreover his mother used to make him a little robe, and bring it to him year by year when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
nkjv@1Samuel:2:22 @ Now Eli was very old; and he heard everything his sons did to all Israel, and how they lay with the women who assembled at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
nkjv@1Samuel:2:23 @ So he said to them, "Why do you do such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all the people.
nkjv@1Samuel:2:24 @ No, my sons! For it is not a good report that I hear. You make the LORD's people transgress.
nkjv@1Samuel:2:27 @ Then a man of God came to Eli and said to him, "Thus says the LORD: "Did I not clearly reveal Myself to the house of your father when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?
nkjv@1Samuel:2:28 @ Did I not choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be My priest, to offer upon My altar, to burn incense, and to wear an ephod before Me? And did I not give to the house of your father all the offerings of the children of Israel made by fire?
nkjv@1Samuel:2:33 @ But any of your men whom I do not cut off from My altar shall consume your eyes and grieve your heart. And all the descendants of your house shall die in the flower of their age.
nkjv@1Samuel:2:35 @ Then I will raise up for Myself a faithful priest who shall do according to what is in My heart and in My mind. I will build him a sure house, and he shall walk before My anointed forever.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:9 @ Therefore Eli said to Samuel, "Go, lie down; and it shall be, if He calls you, that you must say, "Speak, LORD, for Your servant hears."' So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:10 @ Now the LORD came and stood and called as at other times, "Samuel! Samuel!" And Samuel answered, "Speak, for Your servant hears."
nkjv@1Samuel:3:11 @ Then the LORD said to Samuel: "Behold, I will do something in Israel at which both ears of everyone who hears it will tingle.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:21 @ Then the LORD appeared again in Shiloh. For the LORD revealed Himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
nkjv@1Samuel:4:5 @ And when the ark of the covenant of the LORD came into the camp, all Israel shouted so loudly that the earth shook.
nkjv@1Samuel:4:6 @ Now when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, "What does the sound of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews mean?" Then they understood that the ark of the LORD had come into the camp.
nkjv@1Samuel:4:13 @ Now when he came, there was Eli, sitting on a seat by the wayside watching, for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city and told it, all the city cried out.
nkjv@1Samuel:4:14 @ When Eli heard the noise of the outcry, he said, "What does the sound of this tumult mean?" And the man came quickly and told Eli.
nkjv@1Samuel:4:15 @ Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes were so dim that he could not see.
nkjv@1Samuel:4:18 @ Then it happened, when he made mention of the ark of God, that Eli fell off the seat backward by the side of the gate; and his neck was broken and he died, for the man was old and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
nkjv@1Samuel:4:19 @ Now his daughter-in-law, Phinehas' wife, was with child, due to be delivered; and when she heard the news that the ark of God was captured, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and gave birth, for her labor pains came upon her.
nkjv@1Samuel:4:20 @ And about the time of her death the women who stood by her said to her, "Do not fear, for you have borne a son." But she did not answer, nor did she regard it.
nkjv@1Samuel:5:3 @ And when the people of Ashdod arose early in the morning, there was Dagon, fallen on its face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. So they took Dagon and set it in its place again.
nkjv@1Samuel:5:4 @ And when they arose early the next morning, there was Dagon, fallen on its face to the ground before the ark of the LORD. The head of Dagon and both the palms of its hands were broken off on the threshold; only Dagon's torso was left of it.
nkjv@1Samuel:6:6 @ Why then do you harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When He did mighty things among them, did they not let the people go, that they might depart?
nkjv@1Samuel:6:21 @ So they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kirjath Jearim, saying, "The Philistines have brought back the ark of the LORD; come down and take it up with you."
nkjv@1Samuel:7:1 @ Then the men of Kirjath Jearim came and took the ark of the LORD, and brought it into the house of Abinadab on the hill, and consecrated Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD.
nkjv@1Samuel:7:2 @ So it was that the ark remained in Kirjath Jearim a long time; it was there twenty years. And all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.
nkjv@1Samuel:7:3 @ Then Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, "If you return to the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtoreths from among you, and prepare your hearts for the LORD, and serve Him only; and He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines."
nkjv@1Samuel:7:7 @ Now when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel had gathered together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard of it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
nkjv@1Samuel:7:10 @ Now as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel. But the LORD thundered with a loud thunder upon the Philistines that day, and so confused them that they were overcome before Israel.
nkjv@1Samuel:7:16 @ He went from year to year on a circuit to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah, and judged Israel in all those places.
nkjv@1Samuel:8:18 @ And you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, and the LORD will not hear you in that day."
nkjv@1Samuel:8:21 @ And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he repeated them in the hearing of the LORD.
nkjv@1Samuel:9:15 @ Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear the day before Saul came, saying,
nkjv@1Samuel:9:18 @ Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, "Please tell me, where is the seer's house?"
nkjv@1Samuel:9:19 @ Samuel answered Saul and said, "I am the seer. Go up before me to the high place, for you shall eat with me today; and tomorrow I will let you go and will tell you all that is in your heart.
nkjv@1Samuel:9:26 @ They arose early; and it was about the dawning of the day that Samuel called to Saul on the top of the house, saying, "Get up, that I may send you on your way." And Saul arose, and both of them went outside, he and Samuel.
nkjv@1Samuel:10:9 @ So it was, when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, that God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.
nkjv@1Samuel:10:20 @ And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was chosen.
nkjv@1Samuel:10:21 @ When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was chosen. And Saul the son of Kish was chosen. But when they sought him, he could not be found.
nkjv@1Samuel:10:26 @ And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and valiant men went with him, whose hearts God had touched.
nkjv@1Samuel:11:4 @ So the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul and told the news in the hearing of the people. And all the people lifted up their voices and wept.
nkjv@1Samuel:11:6 @ Then the Spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard this news, and his anger was greatly aroused.
nkjv@1Samuel:11:7 @ So he took a yoke of oxen and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the territory of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, "Whoever does not go out with Saul and Samuel to battle, so it shall be done to his oxen." And the fear of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.
nkjv@1Samuel:12:14 @ If you fear the LORD and serve Him and obey His voice, and do not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then both you and the king who reigns over you will continue following the LORD your God.
nkjv@1Samuel:12:18 @ So Samuel called to the LORD, and the LORD sent thunder and rain that day; and all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel.
nkjv@1Samuel:12:20 @ Then Samuel said to the people, "Do not fear. You have done all this wickedness; yet do not turn aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart.
nkjv@1Samuel:12:24 @ Only fear the LORD, and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you.
nkjv@1Samuel:13:1 @ Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned two years over Israel,
nkjv@1Samuel:13:3 @ And Jonathan attacked the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. Then Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, "Let the Hebrews hear!"
nkjv@1Samuel:13:4 @ Now all Israel heard it said that Saul had attacked a garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel had also become an abomination to the Philistines. And the people were called together to Saul at Gilgal.
nkjv@1Samuel:13:14 @ But now your kingdom shall not continue. The LORD has sought for Himself a man after His own heart, and the LORD has commanded him to be commander over His people, because you have not kept what the LORD commanded you."
nkjv@1Samuel:13:19 @ Now there was no blacksmith to be found throughout all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, "Lest the Hebrews make swords or spears."
nkjv@1Samuel:13:22 @ So it came about, on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan. But they were found with Saul and Jonathan his son.
nkjv@1Samuel:14:3 @ Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the LORD's priest in Shiloh, was wearing an ephod. But the people did not know that Jonathan had gone.
nkjv@1Samuel:14:7 @ So his armorbearer said to him, "Do all that is in your heart. Go then; here I am with you, according to your heart."
nkjv@1Samuel:14:12 @ Then the men of the garrison called to Jonathan and his armorbearer, and said, "Come up to us, and we will show you something." Jonathan said to his armorbearer, "Come up after me, for the LORD has delivered them into the hand of Israel."
nkjv@1Samuel:14:13 @ And Jonathan climbed up on his hands and knees with his armorbearer after him; and they fell before Jonathan. And as he came after him, his armorbearer killed them.
