lesserot@Joshua:1:2 @ Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, pass over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, to the children of Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:1:4 @ From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your boundary.

lesserot@Joshua:1:6 @ Be strong and of a good courage; for thou shalt divide for an inheritance unto this people the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give to them.

lesserot@Joshua:1:8 @ This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, in order that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein; for then shalt thou make thy way prosperous, and then shalt thou have good success.

lesserot@Joshua:1:11 @ Pass through the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying, Prepare yourselves provisions; for after only three days more ye shall pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which the Lord your God giveth you, to possess it.

lesserot@Joshua:1:13 @ Remember the word which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, saying, The Lord your God hath granted you rest, and hath given you this land;

lesserot@Joshua:1:14 @ Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall remain in the land which Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan; but ye shall pass over armed before your brethren, all the mighty men of valor, and help them;

lesserot@Joshua:1:15 @ Until the Lord shall have granted your brethren rest, as he hath done to you, and they also have taken possession of the land which the Lord your God giveth them: then shall ye return unto the land of your possession, and possess it, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you on this side of the Jordan, toward the rising of the sun.

lesserot@Joshua:2:2 @ And it was told unto the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, men came in hither this night, of the children of Israel, to search out the country.

lesserot@Joshua:2:11 @ And when we heard this, our heart melted, and there remained not any more courage in any man, because of you; for the Lord your God is alone God in the heavens above, and upon the earth beneath.

lesserot@Joshua:2:14 @ And the men said unto her, Our life shall be to death instead of yours, if ye tell not this our business; and it shall be, when the Lord giveth us the land, that we will show thee kindness and truth.

lesserot@Joshua:2:17 @ And the men said unto her, We will be blameless of this thy oath which thou hast caused us to swear.

lesserot@Joshua:2:18 @ Behold, when we come into the land, this line of scarlet thread shalt thou bind in the window by which thou hast let us down; and thy father, and thy mother, and thy brothers, and all thy father’s household, thou must bring together unto thee into the house.

lesserot@Joshua:2:19 @ And it shall be, that whosoever will go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we will be guiltless; and whosoever will remain with thee in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if a hand be laid upon him.

lesserot@Joshua:2:20 @ And if thou tell this our business, then will we be free of thy oath which thou hast caused us to swear.

lesserot@Joshua:3:4 @ Nevertheless there shall be a space between you and it, of about two thousand cubits by measure: come not near unto it, in order that ye may know the way by which ye must go; for ye have not passed this way heretofore.

lesserot@Joshua:3:7 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to make thee great in the eyes of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so will I be with thee.

lesserot@Joshua:4:3 @ And command ye them, saying, Take yourselves hence out of the midst of the Jordan, out of the place where the priests’ feet stood firmly, twelve stones, and ye shall carry them over with you, and leave them in the lodging–place, where ye will lodge this night.

lesserot@Joshua:4:5 @ And Joshua said unto them, Pass over before the ark of the Lord your God into the midst of the Jordan, and take yourselves up every man one stone upon his shoulder, according unto the number of the tribes of the children of Israel;

lesserot@Joshua:4:6 @ In order that this may be a sign among you, when your children ask in time to come, saying, What mean ye by these stones?

lesserot@Joshua:4:9 @ Twelve stones also did Joshua set up in the midst of the Jordan, on the spot where the feet of the priests who bore the ark of the covenant had stood: and they have remained there unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:4:14 @ On that day the Lord made Joshua great in the eyes of all Israel; and they feared him, as they had feared Moses, all the days of his life.

lesserot@Joshua:4:22 @ Then shall ye let your children know, saying, On dry land did Israel pass over this Jordan;

lesserot@Joshua:5:4 @ And this is the cause why Joshua did circumcise: All the people that came out of Egypt, the males, all the men of war, died in the wilderness on the way, after their going forth out of Egypt.

lesserot@Joshua:5:9 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. And he called the name of the place Gilgal unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:5:13 @ And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, a man was standing over against him with his sword drawn in his hand; and Joshua went unto him, and said to him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?

lesserot@Joshua:5:14 @ And he said, No; for I am a captain of the host of the Lord: now am I come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and bowed himself, and said to him, What doth my lord speak unto his servant?

lesserot@Joshua:6:15 @ And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after this manner seven times; only on that day they compassed the city seven times.

lesserot@Joshua:6:25 @ And Rachab the harlot did Joshua save alive, and her father’s household, and all belonging to her; and she dwelt in the midst of Israel even unto this day; because she had hidden the messengers, whom Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho.

lesserot@Joshua:6:26 @ And Joshua adjured at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the Lord, that will rise up and build this city Jericho: with his first–born shall he lay its foundation, and with his youngest shall he set up its gates.

lesserot@Joshua:6:27 @ And the Lord was with Joshua; and his fame was spread throughout all the country.

lesserot@Joshua:7:6 @ And Joshua rent his clothes, and fell upon his face to the earth before the ark of the Lord until the evening, he with the elders of Israel, and they put dust upon their head.

lesserot@Joshua:7:7 @ And Joshua said, Alas, O Lord Eternal, wherefore hast thou caused this people to pass over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Emorites, to destroy us? and oh! that we had been content, and dwelt on the other side of the Jordan!

lesserot@Joshua:7:18 @ And he brought near his household by its men, and ‘Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerach, of the tribe of Judah, was seized.

lesserot@Joshua:7:22 @ Joshua thereupon sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent; and, behold, it was hidden in his tent, and the silver beneath it.

lesserot@Joshua:7:24 @ And Joshua took ‘Achan the son of Zerach, and the silver, and the mantle, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his ox, and his ass, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had, and all Israel were with him, and they brought them up unto the valley of ‘Achor.

lesserot@Joshua:7:25 @ And Joshua said, How hast thou troubled us! so shall the Lord trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burnt them with fire, after they had stoned them with stones.

lesserot@Joshua:7:26 @ And they raised over him a great heap of stones unto this day; and the Lord turned from the fierceness of his anger. Wherefore the name of that place was called, The valley of ‘Achor, unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:8:1 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear not, neither be thou discouraged: take with thee all the people of war, and arise, go up to ‘Ai; see, I have given into thy hand the king of ‘Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land.

lesserot@Joshua:8:14 @ And it came to pass, when the king of ‘Ai saw this, the men of the city hastened and rose up early, and went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at the time appointed, before the plain; but he knew not that there was an ambush against him in the rear of the city.

lesserot@Joshua:8:18 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, Stretch out the spear that is in thy hand toward ‘Ai; for into thy hand will I give it. And Joshua stretched out the spear which was in his hand toward the city.

lesserot@Joshua:8:19 @ And the ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he stretched out his hand; and they entered into the city, and took possession of it, and hastened and set the city on fire.

lesserot@Joshua:8:20 @ And the men of ‘Ai turned behind them, and they saw, and, behold, the smoke of the city ascended up to heaven; and they had no power to flee this way or that way; and the people that had fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers.

lesserot@Joshua:8:22 @ And the others issued out of the city against them; so that the Israelites had them in the middle, some on this side, and some on that side; and they smote them, until there was not left of them one that remained or escaped.

lesserot@Joshua:8:26 @ And Joshua drew not back his hand, wherewith he had stretched out the spear, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of ‘Ai.

lesserot@Joshua:8:28 @ And Joshua burnt ‘Ai, and made it a ruinous heap of desolation for ever, even unto this day,

lesserot@Joshua:8:29 @ And the king of ‘Ai he hanged on a tree until eventide; and at the going down of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took his carcass down from the tree and cast it at the entrance of the city gate, and they raised over him a great heap of stones, even unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:8:33 @ And all Israel, and their elders, and the officers, and their judges, stood on this side and on that side of the ark, opposite the priests the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord, the stranger no less than the native born: half of them turned toward mount Gerizzim, and the other half of them turned toward mount ‘Ebal; as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded, to bless the people of Israel at first.

lesserot@Joshua:9:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the kings that were on this side of the Jordan, in the mountain, and in the lowlands, and in all the coast of the great sea opposite Lebanon, the Hittites, and the Emorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, heard this,

lesserot@Joshua:9:9 @ And they said unto him, From a very far–off country are thy servants come, because of the name of the Lord thy God; for we have heard his fame, and all that he hath done in Egypt;

lesserot@Joshua:9:12 @ This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; and now, behold, it is dry, and it is become mouldy:

lesserot@Joshua:9:20 @ This will we do to them, and we will let them live, that there be no wrath upon us, on account of the oath which we have sworn unto them.

lesserot@Joshua:9:24 @ And they answered Joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that the Lord thy God had commanded his servant Moses to give unto you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; wherefore we were sore afraid for our lives because of you, and we have done this thing.

lesserot@Joshua:9:27 @ And Joshua appointed them on that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation, and for the altar of the Lord, even unto this day, for the place which he should choose.

lesserot@Joshua:10:3 @ Therefore Adoni–zedek the king of Jerusalem sent unto Hoham the king of Hebron, and unto Piram the king of Yarmuth, and unto Yaphia’, the king of Lachish, and unto Debir the king of ‘Eglon, saying,

lesserot@Joshua:10:5 @ And the five kings of the Emorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Yarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of ‘Eglon, assembled themselves together, and went up, they and all their camps, and encamped before Gib’on, and made war against it.

lesserot@Joshua:10:13 @ And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Yashar? And the sun stood still in the midst of the heavens, and hastened not to go down about a whole day.

lesserot@Joshua:10:21 @ That all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: no one pointed against any man of the children of Israel his tongue.

lesserot@Joshua:10:23 @ And they did so, and brought forth unto him those five kings out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Yarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of ‘Eglon.

lesserot@Joshua:10:27 @ And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hidden; and they placed great stones upon the mouth of the cave, even until this very day.

lesserot@Joshua:10:31 @ And Joshua, and all Israel with him, passed from Libnah unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it;

lesserot@Joshua:10:32 @ And the Lord delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel; and he captured it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein: just as he had done to Libnah.

lesserot@Joshua:10:33 @ Then came up Horam the king of Gezer to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none that escaped.

lesserot@Joshua:10:34 @ And Joshua and all Israel with him passed from Lachish unto ‘Eglon; and they encamped against it, and fought against it;

lesserot@Joshua:10:35 @ And they captured it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword; and all the souls that were therein he devoted on that day: just as he had done to Lachish.

lesserot@Joshua:11:6 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them; for tomorrow about this time will I give all of them up slain before Israel: their horses shalt thou hamstring and their chariots shalt thou burn with fire.

lesserot@Joshua:11:15 @ As the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua: he left nothing undone of all that the Lord had commanded Moses.

lesserot@Joshua:12:7 @ And these are the kings of the country whom Joshua and the children of Israel smote on this side of the Jordan on the west, from Baal–gad in the valley of Lebanon as far as the bald mountain, that goeth up to Seir; and Joshua gave it unto the tribes of Israel for a possession, according to their divisions;

lesserot@Joshua:12:11 @ The king of Yarmuth, one; the king of Lachish, one;

lesserot@Joshua:13:2 @ This is the land that yet remaineth: All the circles of the Philistines, and all Geshurites,

lesserot@Joshua:13:7 @ And now divide this land for an inheritance unto the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Menasseh.

lesserot@Joshua:13:13 @ Nevertheless the children of Israel expelled not the Geshurites and the Ma’achathites; but the Geshurites and the Ma’achathites continued to dwell in the midst of the Israelites until this day.

lesserot@Joshua:13:23 @ And the boundary of the children of Reuben was the Jordan, and its bordering territory. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben after their families, the cities and their villages.

lesserot@Joshua:13:28 @ This is the inheritance of the children of Gad after their families, the cities and their villages.

lesserot@Joshua:14:10 @ And now, behold, the Lord hath kept me alive, as he hath spoken: it is now forty and five years since the Lord spoke this word unto Moses, while Israel wandered in the wilderness; and now, behold, I am this day eighty and five years old.

lesserot@Joshua:14:11 @ I am yet this day as strong as I was on the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, and to go out, and to come in.

lesserot@Joshua:14:12 @ Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the Lord spoke on that day; for thou didst hear on that day that the ‘Anakim were there, and great fortified cities: perhaps the Lord will be with me, and I shall drive them out, as the Lord hath spoken.

lesserot@Joshua:14:14 @ Therefore did Hebron become the inheritance of Caleb the son of Yephunneh the Kenizzite unto this day; for the cause that he had wholly followed the Lord the God of Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:15:4 @ And it passed on toward ‘Azmon, and went out unto the river of Egypt; and the terminations of the boundary were at the sea: this shall be your southern boundary.

lesserot@Joshua:15:12 @ And the west boundary was by the great sea, and the coast thereof. This is the boundary of the children of Judah round about according to their families.

lesserot@Joshua:15:17 @ And ‘Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, captured it; and he gave him ‘Achsah his daughter for wife.

lesserot@Joshua:15:20 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.

lesserot@Joshua:15:39 @ Lachish, and Bozkath, and ‘Eglon,

lesserot@Joshua:15:63 @ As for the Jebusites the inhabitants of Jerusalem, these the children of Judah could not drive out; but the Jebusites dwelt with the children of Judah at Jerusalem, even unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:16:4 @ This did the children of Joseph, Menasseh and Ephraim, take as their inheritance.

lesserot@Joshua:16:8 @ From Tappuach westward the border went out unto the brook Kanah; and its terminations were toward the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim after their families;

lesserot@Joshua:16:10 @ And they drove not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt among the Ephraimites until this day, and became tributary servants.

lesserot@Joshua:17:3 @ But Zelophchad, the son of Chepher, the son of Gil’ad, the son of Machir, the son of Menasseh, had no sons, but only daughters, and these are the names of his daughters, Machlah, and No’ah, Choglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

lesserot@Joshua:17:6 @ Because the daughters of Menasseh obtained an inheritance among his sons: and the land of Gil’ad belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.

lesserot@Joshua:17:10 @ Southward it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Menasseh’s, and the sea was his boundary; and on Asher they touched on the north, and on Issachar on the east.

lesserot@Joshua:17:12 @ Yet the children of Menasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of these cities; but the Canaanites succeeded to dwell in this land;

lesserot@Joshua:18:5 @ And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall remain on his boundary at the south, and the house of Joseph shall remain on their boundary at the north.

lesserot@Joshua:18:14 @ And the border extended, and fetched a compass to the west side, to the south of the mount that is before Beth–choron at the south; and its terminations were at Kiryath–ba’al, which is Kiryath–ye’arim, a city of the children of Judah: this was the west side.

lesserot@Joshua:18:18 @ And passed along on this side opposite to ‘Arabah northward; and went down unto ‘Arabah;

lesserot@Joshua:18:19 @ And the boundary passed along to the side of Beth–choglah northward; and the terminations of the border were at the north bay of the Salt Sea at the south end of the Jordan: this was the south boundary.

lesserot@Joshua:18:20 @ And the Jordan bounded it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by its boundaries round about, according to their families.

lesserot@Joshua:18:28 @ And Zela’, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gib’ath, and Kiryath: fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.

lesserot@Joshua:19:8 @ And all the villages that were round about these cities up to Ba’alath–beer, South Ramah. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families.

lesserot@Joshua:19:14 @ And this boundary turned about on the north side to Channathon; and its terminations were in the valley of Yiph–thach–el;

lesserot@Joshua:19:16 @ This is the inheritance of the children of Zebulun according to their families, these cities with their villages.

lesserot@Joshua:19:23 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Issachar according to their families, the cities and their villages.

lesserot@Joshua:19:31 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families, these cities with their villages.

lesserot@Joshua:19:39 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Naphtali according to their families, the cities and their villages.

lesserot@Joshua:19:48 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families, these cities with their villages.

lesserot@Joshua:20:4 @ And he shall flee unto one of those cities, and he shall stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and speak in the ears of the elders of that city his words; and they shall take him into the city unto them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.

lesserot@Joshua:20:5 @ And if the avenger of the blood should pursue after him, then shall they not deliver the manslayer up into his hand; because without knowledge did he smite his neighbor, and he was not an enemy to him in time past.

lesserot@Joshua:20:6 @ And he shall dwell in that city, until he shall have stood before the congregation for judgment, until the death of the high–priest that may be in those days: then shall the manslayer return, and come unto his own house, unto the city whence he hath fled.

lesserot@Joshua:21:12 @ But the fields of the city, and its villages, they gave to Caleb the son of Yephunneh for his possession.

lesserot@Joshua:22:3 @ Ye have not forsaken your brethren these many days, until this day; but ye have kept the obligation of the commandment of the Lord your God.

lesserot@Joshua:22:5 @ Only take diligent heed to practise the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord hath commanded you, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.

lesserot@Joshua:22:7 @ Now to the one half of the tribe of Menasseh Moses had given possession in Bashan; but unto the other half thereof gave Joshua with their brethren on this side of the Jordan westward; and when Joshua sent them also away unto their tents, he blessed them;

lesserot@Joshua:22:16 @ Thus have said the whole congregation of the Lord, What trespass is this that ye have committed against the God of Israel to turn away this day from following the Lord, in that ye have built yourselves an altar, that ye might rebel this day against the Lord?

lesserot@Joshua:22:17 @ Have we had too little in the iniquity of Peor,––from which we are not yet cleansed until this day,––when there was a plague in the congregation of the Lord?

lesserot@Joshua:22:18 @ And will ye turn away this day from following the Lord? and it will be, that when ye will rebel this day against the Lord, tomorrow he will be wroth with the whole congregation of Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:22:20 @ Did not ‘Achan the son of Zerach commit a trespass on the devoted things, and wrath fell on all the congregation of Israel? and he, though but one man, perished not alone in his iniquity.

lesserot@Joshua:22:24 @ Or whether we have not done it for fear of this thing, saying, In time to come your children might say unto our children, as followeth, What have ye to do with the Lord, the God of Israel?

lesserot@Joshua:22:26 @ Wherefore we said, Let us now act for ourselves to build this altar, not for burnt–offering, nor for sacrifice;

lesserot@Joshua:22:28 @ And we said, that it shall be when they should say this to us and to our generations in time to come, that we may say, Behold the pattern of the altar of the Lord, which our fathers made, not for burnt–offering, nor for sacrifice; but it is a witness between us and you.

lesserot@Joshua:22:29 @ Far be it from us that we should rebel against the Lord, and turn away this day from following the Lord, to build an altar for burnt–offering, for meat–offering, or for sacrifice, beside the altar of the Lord our God that is before his dwelling.

lesserot@Joshua:22:31 @ And Phinehas the son of Elazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Menasseh, This day do we know that the Lord is in our midst, because ye have not committed this trespass against the Lord: now have ye delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the Lord.

lesserot@Joshua:23:8 @ But unto the Lord your God shall ye cleave, as ye have done unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:23:9 @ And the Lord drove out from before you great and mighty nations; but as for you, no man hath been able to stand up before you unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:23:13 @ Know for a certainty that the Lord your God will no more drive out these nations from before you; but they shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges in your sides, and stings in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which the Lord your God hath given you.

lesserot@Joshua:23:14 @ And, behold, I am going this day the way of all the earth; and ye know with all your heart and with all your soul, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spoke concerning you: all are come to pass unto you, not one thing thereof hath failed.

lesserot@Joshua:23:15 @ But it shall come to pass, that as every good thing is come upon you, which the Lord your God spoke unto you: so will the Lord bring upon you every evil thing, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the Lord your God hath given unto you.

lesserot@Joshua:24:3 @ And I took your father Abraham from the other side of the river, and I led him throughout all the land of Canaan; and I multiplied his seed, and gave him Isaac.

lesserot@Joshua:24:4 @ And I gave unto Isaac, Jacob and Esau: and I gave unto Esau mount Seir, to possess it; but Jacob and his children went down into Egypt.

lesserot@Joshua:24:10 @ And I would not hearken unto Bil’am; but he had to bless you instead: and I delivered you out of his hand.

lesserot@Joshua:24:15 @ And if it be displeasing in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom ye will serve: whether the gods which your fathers that were on the other side of the river served, or the gods of the Emorites, in whose land ye dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

lesserot@Joshua:24:24 @ And the people said unto Joshua, The Lord our God will we serve, and his voice will we obey.

lesserot@Joshua:24:27 @ And Joshua said unto all the people, Behold, this stone shall be among us as a witness; for it hath heard all the words of the Lord which he spoke unto us: it shall be therefore as a witness against you, that ye may not deny your God.

lesserot@Joshua:24:28 @ And Joshua let the people depart, every man unto his inheritance.

lesserot@Joshua:24:30 @ And they buried him on the border of his inheritance at Timnath–serach, which is on the mountain of Ephraim, on the north side of mount Ga’ash.

lesserot@Joshua:24:33 @ And Elazar the son of Aaron died; and they buried him on the hill of Phinehas his son, which was given him in the mountain of Ephraim.

lesserot@Judges:1:2 @ And the Lord said, Judah shall go up; behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.

lesserot@Judges:1:3 @ And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, and we will fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot. So Simeon went with him.

lesserot@Judges:1:6 @ But Adoni–bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.

lesserot@Judges:1:13 @ And ‘Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, captured it: and he gave him ‘Achsah his daughter for wife.

lesserot@Judges:1:17 @ And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they smote the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and devoted it. And the name of the city was called Chormah.

lesserot@Judges:1:21 @ And the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem, the children of Benjamin did not drive out; but the Jebusites dwelt with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem until this day.

lesserot@Judges:1:25 @ And he showed them the entrance into the city, and they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but the man and all his family they let go free.

lesserot@Judges:16:28 @ And Samson called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord Eternal, remember me, I pray thee, and do thou strengthen me only this once, O God, that I may be avenged for one of my two eyes on the Philistines.

lesserot@Judges:16:29 @ And Samson threw his arms around the two middle pillars upon which the house was supported, and he leaned on them, one with his right hand, and the other with his left.

lesserot@Judges:16:30 @ And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bent with might, and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead whom he slew at his death were more than those whom he had slain in his life.

lesserot@Judges:16:31 @ Then came down his brothers and all the house of his father, and they took him up, and carried him up, and buried him between Zor’ah and Eshtaol, in the burying–place of Manoach his father. And he had judged Israel twenty years.

lesserot@Judges:17:2 @ And he said unto his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from thee, about which thou cursedst, and spokest of also in my ears,––behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be my son unto the Lord.

lesserot@Judges:17:3 @ And he restored the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother; and his mother said, I had wholly dedicated the silver unto the Lord from my hand, for my son, to make a graven and molten image; and now I will give it back unto thee.

lesserot@Judges:17:4 @ Yet he gave the money back unto his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the silversmith, who made thereof a graven and molten image; and it was in the house of Micah.

lesserot@Judges:17:5 @ And the man Micah had a house of god, and he made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.

lesserot@Judges:18:24 @ And he said, My god which I made have ye taken away, and the priest, and are gone away; and what have I more? and what is this ye say unto me, What aileth thee?

lesserot@Judges:18:26 @ And the children of Dan went on their way; and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back unto his house.

lesserot@Judges:18:30 @ And the children of Dan erected for themselves the graven image: and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Menasseh, he and his sons were priests to the tribe of Dan until the day of the exile of the land.

lesserot@Judges:19:2 @ And his concubine became faithless unto him, and she went away from him unto her father’s house to Beth–lechem–judah, and was there one year and four months.

lesserot@Judges:19:3 @ And then her husband arose, and went after her, to speak friendly unto her, to bring her back; and he had his servant with him, and a couple of asses: and she brought him into her father’s house; and when the father of the damsel saw him, he rejoiced to meet him.

lesserot@Judges:19:4 @ And his father–in–law, the damsel’s father, detained him; and he abode with him three days: and they ate and drank, and lodged there.

lesserot@Judges:19:9 @ And when the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father–in–law, the damsel’s father, said unto him, Behold, now the day draweth toward evening, tarry all night, I pray you: behold, it is the resting time of day, lodge here, and let thy heart be merry; and you may get early tomorrow on your way, and go then to thy tent.

lesserot@Judges:19:10 @ But the man would not tarry that night, but he rose up and went away, and came as far as opposite Jebus, which is Jerusalem; and he had with him two saddled asses, and his concubine also was with him.

lesserot@Judges:19:11 @ When they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said unto his master, Come, I pray thee, and let us turn in unto this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it.

lesserot@Judges:19:12 @ And his master said unto him, We will not turn into one of the cities of the stranger, that are not belonging to the children of Israel; but we will pass on as far as Gib’ah.

lesserot@Judges:19:13 @ And he said unto his servant, Come, and let us draw near to one of these places; and let us lodge all night in Gib’ah, or in Ramah.

lesserot@Judges:19:15 @ And they turned aside thither, to go in to lodge in Gib’ah; and when he went in, he sat down in the street of the city; for there was no man that brought them into his house to lodge.

lesserot@Judges:19:16 @ And, behold, an old man was coming from his work out of the field at evening, and this man was from the mountain of Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gib’ah; but the men of the place were Benjamites.

lesserot@Judges:19:17 @ And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the street of the city: and then said the old man, Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou?

lesserot@Judges:19:18 @ And he said unto him, We are passing from Beth–lechem–judah toward the lower edge of the mountain of Ephraim; from there am I, and I went as far as Beth–lechem–judah; but I am going to the house of the Lord; and there is no man that bringeth me into his house.

lesserot@Judges:19:21 @ So he brought him to his house, and gave provender unto the asses: and they washed their feet, and they ate and drank.

lesserot@Judges:19:23 @ And the man, the master of the house, went out unto them, and said unto them, No, my brethren, I pray you, act not wickedly; since this man is once come into my house, do not this scandalous thing.

lesserot@Judges:19:24 @ Behold, here is my daughter a virgin, and his concubine; let me bring them out now, and humble ye them, and do to them what seemeth good in your eyes; but unto this man do not this scandalous thing.

lesserot@Judges:19:25 @ But the men would not hearken to him; so the man took hold of his concubine, and brought her forth unto them into the street; and they knew her, and ill–used her all the night until the morning; and they let her go when the day began to dawn.

lesserot@Judges:19:27 @ And when her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go on his way: behold, the woman, his concubine, was lying at the door of the house, with her hands upon the threshold.

lesserot@Judges:19:28 @ And he said unto her, Rise up, and let us be going; but no one answered. Then he took her upon the ass, and the man rose up, and went unto his place.

lesserot@Judges:19:29 @ And when he was come into his house, he took a knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, according to her bones, into twelve pieces, and sent her about in all the territory of Israel.

lesserot@Judges:19:30 @ And it happened, that whoever saw it said, There hath no such deed been done or seen from the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt until this day: reflect well on it, give advice, and speak.

lesserot@Judges:20:3 @ (And the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Mizpah.) And the children of Israel said, Speak, how did this wickedness take place?

lesserot@Judges:20:8 @ And all the people then arose as one man, saying, We will not go any of us to his tent, neither will we turn any of us into his house.

lesserot@Judges:20:9 @ And now this shall be the thing which we will do to Gib’ah: We will go up against it by lot;

lesserot@Judges:20:12 @ And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the divisions of Benjamin, saying, What wickedness is this that hath been done among you?

lesserot@Judges:20:16 @ Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men lame in the right hand: every one of these could sling a stone at a hair, and would not miss.

lesserot@Judges:21:1 @ Now the men of Israel had sworn in Mizpah, saying, Not any of us shall give his daughter unto Benjamin for wife.

lesserot@Judges:21:3 @ And they said, Wherefore, O Lord, God of Israel, is this come to pass in Israel, that there should be lacking this day out of Israel one tribe?

lesserot@Judges:21:6 @ And the children of Israel felt regret for Benjamin their brother, and they said, One tribe hath this day been cut down from Israel.

lesserot@Judges:21:11 @ And this is the thing that ye shall do, every male, and every woman that hath known by lying with him, shall ye devote.

lesserot@Judges:21:14 @ And Benjamin returned at that time: and they gave unto them the wives whom they had saved alive out of the women of Yabesh–gil’ad; but they found not sufficient for them in this way.

lesserot@Judges:21:21 @ And look out, and, behold, if the daughters of Shiloh go out to dance in dances: then come ye forth out of the vineyards, and snatch you every man his wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go then to the land of Benjamin.

lesserot@Judges:21:22 @ And it shall be, when their fathers or their brothers come to contend with us, that we will say unto them, Be favorable unto them for our sakes; because we took not for each man his wife in the war; because ye yourselves did not give them unto them, that ye should at this time be guilty.

lesserot@Judges:21:24 @ And the children of Israel departed thence at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from there every man to his inheritance.

lesserot@Judges:21:25 @ In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did what was right in his own eyes.

lesserot@Ruth:1:1 @ And it came to pass in the days when the judges judged, that there was a famine in the land: and there went a certain man of Beth–lechem–judah to sojourn in the fields of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.

lesserot@Ruth:1:2 @ And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Na’omi, and the name of his two sons Machlon and Kilyon, Ephrathites of Beth–lechem–judah. And they came into the fields of Moab, and remained there.

lesserot@Ruth:1:6 @ Then did she arise with her daughters–in–law, and returned homeward from the fields of Moab; for she had heard in the fields of Moab that the Lord had thought of his people in giving them bread.

lesserot@Ruth:1:12 @ Return back, my daughters, go; for I am too old to become of any man; yea, if I were even to think, I have hope; should I even obtain this night a husband, and should also bear sons:

lesserot@Ruth:1:19 @ So these two went until they came to Beth–lechem. And it came to pass, when they entered Beth–lechem, that all the city was in commotion about them, and people said, Is this Na’omi?

lesserot@Ruth:2:5 @ Then said Bo’az unto his young man that was appointed over the reapers, Whose maiden is this?

lesserot@Ruth:2:8 @ Then said Bo’az unto Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go away from this; but keep close company with my own maidens.

lesserot@Ruth:2:15 @ Then did she arise to glean: and Bo’az commanded his young men, saying, Even between the sheaves let her glean, and do not cause her to feel any shame;

lesserot@Ruth:2:20 @ Then said Na’omi unto her daughter–in–law, Blessed be he unto the Lord, who hath not withheld his kindness from the living and from the dead. And Na’omi said unto her, The man is nearly related unto us, he is one of our next kinsmen.

lesserot@Ruth:3:4 @ And it shall be, when he lieth down, that thou shalt note the place where he will lie, and thou shalt then go in, and lift up the covering that is on his feet, and lay thyself down: and he will tell thee what thou shalt do.

lesserot@Ruth:3:7 @ And Bo’az ate and drank, and his heart became merry; and he then went in to lie down at the end of the heap of corn: and she came in softly, and lifted up the covering that was on his feet, and laid herself down.

lesserot@Ruth:3:8 @ And it came to pass at midnight, that the man became terrified, and bent himself forward; and, behold, a woman was lying at his feet.

lesserot@Ruth:3:13 @ Remain here this night, and it shall be in the morning, that if he will redeem thee, well, let him redeem; but if he be not willing to redeem thee, then will I redeem thee, as the Lord liveth: lie still until the morning.

lesserot@Ruth:3:14 @ And she lay at his feet until the morning; and she rose up before one could know another. And he said, It must not be known that this woman came into the threshing–floor.

lesserot@Ruth:3:18 @ Then said she, Remain still, my daughter, until thou know how the matter will fall out; for the man will not rest, until he have finished the matter this day.

lesserot@Ruth:4:5 @ Then said Bo’az, On the day that thou buyest the field out of the hand of Na’omi, thou buyest it also from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.

lesserot@Ruth:4:7 @ Now this was formerly the custom in Israel at a redeeming and at an exchanging, to confirm any thing, that a man pulled off his shoe, and gave it to the other; and this was the manner of testimony in Israel.

lesserot@Ruth:4:8 @ Thereupon said the kinsman unto Bo’az, Buy it for thee. And he pulled off his shoe.

lesserot@Ruth:4:9 @ And Bo’az said unto the elders, and unto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that belonged to Elimelech, and all that belonged to Kilyon and Machlon, out of the hand of Na’omi.

lesserot@Ruth:4:10 @ And also Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Machlon, have I obtained for myself as my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day.

lesserot@Ruth:4:12 @ And may thy house be like the house of Perez, whom Thamar bore unto Judah, through the seed which the Lord will give thee of this young woman.

lesserot@Ruth:4:13 @ And Bo’az took Ruth, and she became his wife, and he went in unto her: and the Lord gave her conception, and she bore a son.

lesserot@Ruth:4:14 @ And the women said unto Na’omi, Blessed be the Lord, who hath not allowed to be wanting unto thee a kinsman this day: and may his name become famous in Israel.

lesserot@Ruth:4:17 @ And the neighboring women gave him a name, saying, There hath been a son born unto Na’omi: and they called his name ‘Obed, who is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:3 @ And this man went up out of his city from year to year to prostrate himself and to sacrifice unto the Lord of hosts in Shiloh. And at that place were the two sons of ‘Eli, Chophni and Phinehas, priests of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:4 @ And when the day was come that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions;

lesserot@1Samuel:1:11 @ And she vowed a vow, and said, O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thy handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thy handmaid, but wilt give unto thy handmaid a man–child: then will I give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:19 @ And they rose up early in the morning, and prostrated themselves before the Lord, and returned, and came to their house at Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the Lord remembered her.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:20 @ And it came to pass, after the lapse of some time, that Hannah conceived, and bore a son; and she called his name Samuel, saying, Because from the Lord have I asked him.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:21 @ And the man Elkanah went up, with all his house, to offer unto the Lord the yearly sacrifice, and his vow.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:23 @ And Elkanah her husband said unto her, Do what seemeth good in thy eyes; tarry until thou hast weaned him; only may the Lord fulfill his word. So the woman remained behind, and gave her son suck until she weaned him.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:27 @ For this lad did I pray; and the Lord hath granted me my petition which I asked of him;

lesserot@1Samuel:2:10 @ The Lord––his adversaries will be crushed; out of heaven will he thunder upon them: the Lord will judge the ends of the earth; and he will give strength unto his king, and lift up the horn of his anointed.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:11 @ And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the lad was ministering unto the Lord before ‘Eli the priest.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:13 @ And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered a sacrifice, the priest’s servant came, while was seething the flesh, with a fork with three teeth in his hand;

lesserot@1Samuel:2:22 @ Now ‘Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons were in the habit of doing unto all Israel; and how they would lie with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:23 @ And he said unto them, Why will ye do such things? for I hear of your evil dealings from all this people.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:34 @ And this shall be unto thee the sign, that shall happen on thy two sons, on Chophni and Phinehas: On one day shall they, both of them, die.

lesserot@1Samuel:9:22 @ And Samuel took Saul and his servant, and brought them into the apartment; and he assigned them a place at the head of the invited guests, who were about thirty persons.

lesserot@1Samuel:9:24 @ And the cook took up the shoulder, and that which was on it, and set it before Saul; and he said, Behold what is left! set it before thee, and eat; for unto this time hath it been kept from thee, since I said, I have invited the people. And Saul ate with Samuel on that day.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:1 @ And Samuel took a flask of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Behold, it is because the Lord hath anointed thee over his inheritance as chief.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:2 @ When thou goest this day away from me, thou wilt find two men who are now by Rachel’s sepulchre, on the boundary of Benjamin at Zelzach; and they will say unto thee, The asses which thou wentest to seek are found: and, lo, thy father hath given up the matter of the asses, and is anxious for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?

lesserot@1Samuel:10:9 @ And it happened, that, as he turned his back to go away from Samuel, God changed his heart into another; and all these signs came to pass on that same day.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:11 @ And it came to pass, when all that knew him before saw, that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then said the people one to another, What is this that hath happened to the son of Kish? is Saul also among the prophets?

lesserot@1Samuel:10:14 @ And Saul’s uncle said unto him and to his servant, Whither were ye gone? And he said, To seek the asses; and when we saw that they were nowhere, we went to Samuel.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:16 @ And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses had been found. But of the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel had spoken, he told him not.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:19 @ And ye for your part have this day rejected your God, he who hath saved you out of all your misfortunes and your tribulations; and ye have said unto him, Nevertheless, thou must set a king over us: and now present yourselves before the Lord according to your tribes, and according to your thousands.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:25 @ Then did Samuel speak to the people the rights of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it down before the Lord. And Samuel sent away all the people, every man to his house.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:26 @ And Saul also went to his home to Gib’ah; and there went with him a large crowd, whose heart God had touched.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:27 @ But the worthless men said, In what can this help us? And they despised him, and brought him no present. But he acted as though he were deaf.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:2 @ And Nachash the ‘Ammonite said unto them, On this condition will I make it with you, that ye all have put out the right eye, that I may lay it as a reproach upon all Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:7 @ And he took a yoke of oxen, and cut them in pieces, and sent them about throughout all the boundary of Israel by the hand of the messengers, saying, Whosoever goeth not forth after Saul and after Samuel, shall have his herds thus treated.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:13 @ And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death on this day; for today the Lord hath wrought deliverance in Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:2 @ And now, behold, the king is walking before you; and I am old and gray–headed; and my sons, behold, they are with you; and I have walked before you from my youth even until this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:5 @ And he said unto them, The Lord is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that ye have not found in my hand the least: and they answered, He is witness.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:8 @ When Jacob was come into Egypt, then did your fathers cry unto the Lord, and the Lord sent Moses and Aaron, and they brought forth your fathers out of Egypt, and caused them to dwell in this place.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:16 @ And now stand up and see this great thing, which the Lord is about doing before your eyes.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:19 @ And all the people said unto Samuel, Pray in behalf of thy servants unto the Lord thy God, that we may not die; for we have added unto all our sins yet this evil, to ask for ourselves a king.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:20 @ And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not; ye have indeed done all this evil: yet turn not aside from following the Lord, and serve ye the Lord with all your heart;

lesserot@1Samuel:12:22 @ For the Lord will not forsake his people for the sake of his great name; because it hath pleased the Lord to make you a people unto himself.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:2 @ Saul chose for himself three thousand men out of Israel; and there were with Saul two thousand in Michmash and on the mountain of Beth–el, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gib’ah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent away every man to his tents.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:14 @ But now thy government shall not endure: the Lord hath sought out for himself a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath ordained him to be chief over his people; because thou hast not kept what the Lord had commanded thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:16 @ And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were to be found with them, were lying in Geba’ of Benjamin; but the Philistines were encamped in Michmash.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:20 @ But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his plough–share, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:22 @ So it came to pass on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan; but they were found with Saul and with Jonathan his son.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:1 @ Now it happened one day, that Jonathan the son of Saul said unto the young man that bore his armor, Come, and let us go over to the Philistines’ outpost, that is on the other side yonder. But unto his father he told nothing.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:6 @ And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armor, Come, and let us go over unto the outpost of these uncircumcised: it may be that the Lord will work for us; for there is no restraint to the Lord to save by means of many or by means of few.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:7 @ And his armor–bearer said unto him, Do all that is in thy heart: turn thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:10 @ But if they say thus, Come up unto us: then will we go up; for the Lord hath delivered them into our hand; and this shall be unto us the sign.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:12 @ And the men of the outpost addressed Jonathan and his armor–bearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will let you know something. Then said Jonathan unto his armor–bearer, Come up after me; for the Lord hath given them up into the hand of Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:13 @ And Jonathan then ascended upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armor–bearer after him: and they fell before Jonathan, and his armor–bearer was killing after him.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:14 @ And that first defeat, which Jonathan and his armor–bearer caused, was about twenty men, within about the half of a field, which a yoke of oxen might plough.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:17 @ Then said Saul unto the people that were with him, Muster now, and see who is gone away from us. And they mustered, and, behold, there was neither Jonathan nor his armor–bearer.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:20 @ And Saul and all the people that were with him were called together, and they came to the battle; and, behold, the sword of every man was against his fellow, the disorder being very great.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:26 @ And when the people were come into the forest, behold, there was a stream of honey; but no one put his hand to his mouth; for the people feared the oath.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:27 @ But Jonathan had not heard his father charging the people with the oath; he therefore put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and dipped it in a honey–comb, and carried his hand again to his mouth; and his eyes became clear.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:28 @ Then commenced one of the people, and said, Thy father strictly charged the people with an oath, saying, Cursed be the man that will eat food this day; though the people were faint.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:29 @ Then said Jonathan, My father hath troubled the land: see, I pray you, how my eyes become clear, because I have tasted a little of this honey.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:30 @ How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely this day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for would there not have been now a greater defeat among the Philistines?

lesserot@1Samuel:14:33 @ And they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people are sinning against the Lord, in eating upon the blood. And he said, Ye have acted treacherously: roll unto me this day a great stone.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:34 @ And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them, Bring near unto me every man his ox, and every man his lamb, and slaughter here, and eat; and sin not against the Lord in eating by the blood. And all the people brought near every man his ox by his hand that night, and slaughtered there.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:38 @ And Saul said, Draw ye near hither all the chief of the people: and know and see through what this sin hath happened this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:45 @ And the people said unto Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? This shall not be: as the Lord liveth, there shall not fall one hair of his head to the ground; for with God hath he wrought this day. So the people rescued Jonathan, and he died not.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:47 @ So Saul strengthened himself in the government over Israel; and he fought on every side against all his enemies, against Moab, and against the children of ‘Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines: and whithersoever he turned himself, he caused terror.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:49 @ Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Yishvi, and Malkishua’: and the names of his two daughters––the name of the first–born was Merab, and the name of the younger Michal.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:1 @ And Samuel said unto Saul, Me did the Lord send to anoint thee as king over his people, over Israel; and now hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:14 @ And Samuel said, What is then this bleating of the flocks in my ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?

lesserot@1Samuel:15:16 @ And Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the Lord said to me this night: and he said unto him, Speak.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:27 @ And Samuel turned about to go: and he laid hold on the corner of his mantle, and it was rent.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:28 @ And Samuel said unto him, The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from off thee this day, and hath given it to thy associate, who is better than thou.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:34 @ Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house at Gib’ah of Saul.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:35 @ And Samuel did not see Saul any more until the day of his death; because Samuel mourned for Saul; and the Lord repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:1 @ And the Lord said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him so as not to reign over Israel? fill thy horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Beth–lechemite; for I have selected among his sons unto myself a king.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:5 @ And he said, Peace: to sacrifice unto the Lord am I come; sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and invited them to the sacrifice.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:7 @ But the Lord said unto Samuel, Regard not his appearance, nor the height of his stature; because I have rejected him; for not what man looketh on; ––for man looketh on the eyes, but the Lord looketh on the heart.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:8 @ Then Jesse called Abinadab, and caused him to pass before Samuel. And he said, This one also hath the Lord not chosen.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:9 @ Then Jesse caused Shammah to pass by. And he said, This one also hath the Lord not chosen.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:10 @ And Jesse caused seven of his sons to pass before Samuel: and Samuel said unto Jesse, The Lord hath not made choice of these.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:12 @ And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, having withal handsome eyes, and being of a goodly appearance. And the Lord said, Arise, anoint him; for this is he.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:13 @ Then took Samuel the horn of oil, and anointed him from among his brothers; and the Spirit of the Lord came suddenly upon David from that day and forward. And Samuel then rose up, and went to Ramah.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:16 @ Let our Lord but say, and thy servants, now before thee, will seek out a man, who is skilful as a player on the harp; and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, that thou mayest be well.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:17 @ And Saul said unto his servants, Select for me, I pray you, a man that can play well, and bring him to me.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:20 @ And Jesse took an ass laden with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid, and sent them through David his son unto Saul.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:21 @ And David came to Saul, and stood before him; and he loved him greatly, and he became his armor–bearer.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:23 @ And it came to pass, when the spirit of God was upon Saul, that David took the harp, and played with his hand; so Saul became relieved, and he felt well, and the evil spirit departed from him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:4 @ And there went out the champion out of the camp of the Philistines, Goliath of Gath was his name, whose height was six cubits and a span.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:5 @ And he had a helmet of copper upon his head, and he was clothed with a scaly coat of mail; and the weight of the coat of mail was five thousand shekels of copper.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:6 @ And he had greaves of copper upon his legs, and a javelin of copper between his shoulders.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:7 @ And the staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and the blade of his spear six hundred shekels of iron: and the shield–bearer was walking before him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:10 @ And the Philistine said, I have defied the arrays of Israel this day; give me a man, and let us fight together.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:13 @ And the three eldest sons of Jesse were gone following Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that were gone to the battle were Eliab the first–born, and the next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:15 @ But David kept going and returning from Saul to feed his father’s flocks at Beth–lechem.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:17 @ And Jesse said unto David his son, Take, I pray thee, for thy brothers an ephah of this parched corn, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brothers;

lesserot@1Samuel:17:22 @ And David left the articles which he had on him in the hand of the keeper of the baggage, and ran into the array, and came and asked of his brothers after their welfare.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:25 @ And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is coming forth? for to defy Israel is he coming forth; and it shall be, that the man who killeth him,––him will the king enrich with great riches, and his daughter will he give him, and his father’s house will he make free in Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:26 @ And David said to the men that stood by him, thus, What shall be done to the man that may smite yon Philistine, and take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the arrays of the living God?

lesserot@1Samuel:17:27 @ And the people spoke to him after this manner, saying, So shall it be done to the man that may smite him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:28 @ And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he was speaking unto the men; and Eliab’s anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why didst thou come down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy presumption, and the wickedness of thy heart; for in order to see the battle art thou come down.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:32 @ And David said to Saul, Let no man’s heart fail because of him: thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:33 @ And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go unto this Philistine to fight with him; for thou art but a lad, and he a man of war from his youth.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:34 @ And David said unto Saul, Thy servant was feeding his father’s flocks, and there came a lion, and a bear, and bore off a lamb out of the drove;

lesserot@1Samuel:17:35 @ And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he rose up against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:36 @ Both the lion and the bear did thy servant smite: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall become as one of them; because he hath defied the arrays of the living God.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:37 @ Moreover David said, The Lord who hath delivered me out of the power of the lion, and out of the power of the bear, will also surely deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and may the Lord be with thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:38 @ And Saul clothed David with his garments, and he put a helmet of copper upon his head; and he clothed him also with a coat of mail.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:39 @ And David girded his sword over his garments, and he essayed to go; for he had not tried it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot walk in these; for I have never tried it before. And David put them off from him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:40 @ And he took his staff in his hand, and chose himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd’s pouch which be had, even in a scrip, with his sling in his hand; and he approached to the Philistine.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:43 @ And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest unto me with sticks? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:46 @ This day will the Lord deliver thee into my hand; and I will smite thee, and remove thy head from thee; and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; and all the earth shall know that there is a God for Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:47 @ And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not through sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give you up into our hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:49 @ And David put his hand into the pouch, and took thence a stone, and slung it, and he struck the Philistine on his forehead, and the stone sunk into his forehead: and he fell upon his face to the ground.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:51 @ And David ran, and stood by the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of its sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw that their hero was dead, they fled.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:54 @ And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but his weapons he placed in his tent.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:55 @ And when Saul saw David going forth against the Philistine, he said unto Abner, the captain of the army, Abner, whose son is this lad? And Abner said, As thy soul liveth, O king, I know it not.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:56 @ And the king said, Ask thou whose son this youth is.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:57 @ And as David returned from smiting the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:1 @ And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit on the soul of David; and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:2 @ And Saul took him on that day, and would not permit him to go home to his father’s house.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:3 @ Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because of his loving him as his own soul.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:4 @ And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that he had upon him, and gave it to David, and likewise his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:7 @ And the women that played answered one another, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:8 @ And Saul was very wroth, and this saying was displeasing in his eyes; and he said, They have given unto David ten thousands, and to me they have given the thousands: and all that he lacketh now yet is only the kingdom.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:10 @ And it came to pass on the morrow, that an evil spirit from God came suddenly over Saul, and he spoke foolish things in the midst of the house: while David was playing with his hand, as on previous days; and the spear was in the hand of Saul.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:11 @ And Saul cast the spear; and he thought, I will strike David through even on the wall. And David turned aside out of his presence twice.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:13 @ Therefore Saul removed him from himself, and made him his captain over a thousand: and he went out and came in before the people.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:14 @ And David was successful on all his ways; and the Lord was with him.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:20 @ And Michal Saul’s daughter loved David: and they told it to Saul, and the thing was right in his eyes.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:21 @ And Saul said, I will give her to him, that she may become unto him a snare, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Wherefore Saul said to David, Through the second shalt thou this day become my son–in–law.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:22 @ And Saul commanded his servants, Speak to David secretly, saying, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all his servants love thee; and now thou must become the king’s son–in–law.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:26 @ And when his servants told David these words, the thing was pleasing in the eyes of David to become the king’s son–in–law: and the days were not complete,

lesserot@1Samuel:18:27 @ When David arose and went, he and his men, and smote of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they counted them out in full to the king, that he might become the king’s son–in–law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter for wife.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:30 @ And the princes of the Philistines went forth; and it came to pass, whenever they went forth, that David was more successful than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was highly prized.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:1 @ And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that he would kill David. But Jonathan the son of Saul delighted greatly in David.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:4 @ And Jonathan spoke favorably of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; since he hath not sinned against thee, and because his deeds are very good for thee;

lesserot@1Samuel:19:5 @ And he did put his life in his hand, and he slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great salvation for all Israel; thou sawest it, and wast rejoiced: wherefore then wilt thou commit sin on innocent blood, by slaying David without a cause?

lesserot@1Samuel:19:7 @ And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these words. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:9 @ And the evil spirit from the Lord came upon Saul, and he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:11 @ But Saul sent messengers unto David’s house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning; and Michal his wife told it to David, saying, If thou save not thy life this night, tomorrow thou wilt be put to death.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:24 @ And he also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied himself before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore people are in the habit of saying, Is Saul too among the prophets?

lesserot@1Samuel:20:2 @ And he said unto him, God forbid; thou shalt not die: behold, my father is not wont to do a great thing or a small thing, which he doth not inform me of; and why should my father conceal this thing from me? it is not so.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:3 @ But David swore again, and said, Thy father well knoweth that I have found grace in thy eyes; wherefore he said, Jonathan must not know this, lest he be grieved: nevertheless, as truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there was but one step between me and death.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:6 @ If thy father at all miss me, then do thou say, David asked earnestly leave of me that he might run to Beth–lechem his city; for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:12 @ And Jonathan said unto David, May the God of Israel if, when I have sounded my father about this time tomorrow, or of the third day, and, behold, if he be good toward David, I do not then send unto thee, and inform thee of it.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:34 @ And Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and did eat no food on the second day of the new–moon; for he was grieved for David; because his father had made him feel ashamed.

lesserot@1Samuel:22:7 @ Then said Saul unto his servants that stood about him, Hear, I pray you, men of Benjamin! will the son of Jesse give, indeed, to every one of you fields and vineyards? will he appoint you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds?

lesserot@1Samuel:22:11 @ Then sent the king to call Achimelech, the son of Achitub, the priest, and all his father’s house, the priests that were in Nob: and they came, all of them, to the king.

lesserot@1Samuel:22:13 @ And Saul said unto him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou didst give him bread, and a sword, and hast asked counsel for him of God, that he should rise to lie in wait against me, as it is this day!

lesserot@1Samuel:22:15 @ Did I this day then begin to ask counsel for him of God? far be it from me; let not the king impute any thing unto his servant, to all the house of my father; for thy servant knew not of all this, either a little or great thing.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:5 @ So David and his men went to Ke’ilah; and he fought with the Philistines, and lead away their cattle, and smote among them a great slaughter. So David delivered the inhabitants of Ke’ilah.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:8 @ And Saul called all the people together to war, to go down to Ke’ilah, to besiege David and his men.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:11 @ Will the men of Ke’ilah surrender me into his hand? will Saul come down as thy servant hath heard? O Lord, God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And the Lord said, He will come down.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:13 @ Then arose David and his men, about six hundred men, and departed out of Ke’ilah, and wandered about whithersoever they could go. And when it was told to Saul that David was escaped from Ke’ilah, he forbore to go forth.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:14 @ And David remained in the wilderness in strong–holds, and abode on the mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him all the time, but God delivered him not into his hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:15 @ And David saw that Saul was gone forth to seek his life: and David was in the wilderness of Ziph in the forest.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:16 @ And Jonathan, the son of Saul, arose and went to David into the forest, and strengthened his hand in God.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:17 @ And he said unto him, Fear not; for the hand of Saul my father will not find thee; and thou wilt be king over Israel, and I will be next unto thee; and also Saul my father knoweth this.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:18 @ And they made, both of them, a covenant before the Lord: and David remained in the forest; but Jonathan went to his house.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:22 @ Go, I pray you, make yet more preparations, and remark and see his place where his foot may be, who hath seen him there; for I am told that he dealeth with great subtilty.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:25 @ And Saul and his men went to make a search. And they told it to David: wherefore he came down to the rock, and abode in the wilderness of Ma’on. And when Saul heard this, he pursued after David into the wilderness of Ma’on.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:26 @ And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain; and David made haste to get away from before Saul; and Saul and his men were compassing David and his men to seize them.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:2 @ Then took Saul three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:3 @ And he came to the sheepfolds by the way, and there was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men were sitting in the lower end of the cave.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:4 @ And the men of David said unto him, Behold, this is the day of which the Lord hath said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thy enemy into thy hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good in thy eyes.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:6 @ And he said unto his men, Far be it from me for the Lord’s sake, that I should do this thing unto my master, the Lord’s anointed, to stretch forth my hand against him; because he is the anointed of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:7 @ So David restrained his servants with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:8 @ David also arose afterward, and went forth out of the cave, and called after Saul, saying, My Lord, the king! And Saul then looked behind him, and David bowed his face to the earth, and prostrated himself.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:10 @ Behold, this day thy eyes have seen how that the Lord had delivered thee today into my hand in the cave, and some one said that I should kill thee: but my soul felt compassion for thee: and I said, I will not stretch forth my hand against my Lord; because he is the anointed of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:16 @ And it came to pass, When David had finished speaking these words unto Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:18 @ And thou hast proved this day, that thou hast dealt well with me; forasmuch as when the Lord had surrendered me into thy hand, thou didst not kill me.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:19 @ For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go away on a good road? so may the Lord reward thee with good for what thou hast done unto me this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:22 @ And David swore unto Saul; and Saul went to his house; but David and his men went up into the strong–hold.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:1 @ And Samuel died; and all the Israelites assembled themselves together, and lamented for him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. And David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:2 @ And there was a man in Ma’on, whose business was in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was, while they were shearing his sheep, at Carmel.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:3 @ Now the name of the man was Nabal, and the name of his wife Abigayil: and the woman was of good understanding, and of a beautiful form; but the man was hard–hearted and evil in his deeds; and he was of the house of Caleb.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:4 @ And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:5 @ And David sent out ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and ask him in my name after his well–being.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:10 @ And Nabal answered the servants of David, and said, Who is David? and who is the son of Jesse? now–a–days there are many servants that break away every one from his master.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:13 @ And David said unto his men, Gird ye on, every man, his sword. And they girded on, every man, his sword; and David also girded on his sword: and there went up after David about four hundred men, and two hundred abode by the baggage.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:17 @ And now know and consider what thou canst do; for evil is determined on against our master, and against all his household; and he is too greatly a worthless man for me to speak to him.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:20 @ And it was so, as she was riding on the ass, and coming down by the covert of the mount, that, behold, David and his men came down toward her; and she met them.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:21 @ Now David had said, Yea, for naught only have I guarded all that belongeth to this fellow in the wilderness, so that not the least was missed of all that pertained unto him; and he hath requited me evil instead of good.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:24 @ And she fell at his feet, and said, On me, me, my lord, is the fault: and let thy hand–maid, I pray thee, speak in thy hearing, and listen to the words of thy hand–maid.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:25 @ Let not my Lord, I pray thee, turn his heart unto this worthless man, unto Nabal; for as his name is, so is he: Nabal is his name, and meanness is with him; but I thy hand–maid did not see the young men of my Lord, whom thou didst send.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:33 @ And blessed be thy intelligence, and blessed be thou, who hast prevented me this day from coming unto blood–guiltiness, and from helping myself with my own hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:36 @ And Abigayil came to Nabal; and, behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal’s heart was merry within him, and he was exceedingly drunken; wherefore she told him not a word, either little or great, until the morning–light.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:37 @ But it happened in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things; and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:42 @ And Abigayil hastened, and arose, and rode upon an ass, with her five damsels that went in her train; and she went after the messengers of David, and she became his wife.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:16 @ This thing which thou hast done is not good. As the Lord liveth, ye deserve to die; because ye have not kept guard over your master, over the Lord’s anointed. And now see, where is the king’s spear, and the cruise of water that was by his head?

lesserot@1Samuel:26:17 @ And Saul recognized David’s voice, and he said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And David said, It is my voice, my Lord, O king.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:18 @ And he said, Why is this that my lord doth pursue after his servant? for what have I done? or what evil is in my hand?

lesserot@1Samuel:26:19 @ And now, I pray thee, let my Lord the king hear the words of his servant! If the Lord have stirred thee up against me, then may he accept the savor of an offering; but if they be the children of men, then be they cursed before the Lord; because they have driven me out this day so that I cannot attach myself on the inheritance of the Lord, saying, Go, serve other gods.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:21 @ Then said Saul, I have sinned; return, my son David; for I will not do thee harm any more, for the cause that my life was precious in thy eyes this day: behold, I have acted foolishly, and have erred exceedingly much.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:23 @ And may the Lord recompense to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness; since the Lord delivered thee into my hand today, and I would not stretch forth my hand against the anointed of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:24 @ And behold, as thy life was highly valued this day in my eyes, so may my life be highly valued in the eyes of the Lord, and may he deliver me out of all tribulation.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:25 @ Then said Saul to David, Blessed be thou my son David: thou wilt both do great things, and wilt also surely prevail. And David went then on his way, and Saul returned to his place.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:1 @ And David said in his heart, Now I may yet perish suddenly one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing better for me than that I should escape at once into the land of the Philistines, then Saul will abstain from me, to seek me any more in all the territory of Israel: and so shall I escape out of his hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:2 @ And David arose, and he passed over himself with the six hundred men that were with him unto Achish, the son of Ma’och, the king of Gath.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:3 @ And David remained with Achish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household, also David with his two wives, Achino’am the Yizre’elitess, and Abigayil, Nabal’s wife, the Carmelitess.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:5 @ And David said unto Achish, If now I have found grace in thy eyes, let them give me a place in some one of the country–towns, that I may dwell there; for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?

lesserot@1Samuel:27:6 @ Then gave Achish unto him on that day Ziklag: therefore hath Ziklag pertained unto the kings of Judah until this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:8 @ And David and his men went up, and invaded the Geshurites, and the Gizrites, and the ‘Amalekites; for these nations were of old the inhabitants of the land, till thou comest to Shur, and as far as the land of Egypt.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:9 @ And David smote the land, and left not alive either man or woman, and took away the flocks, and the oxen, and the asses, and the camels, and the apparel, and returned, and came to Achish.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:10 @ And Achish said, Whither have ye made an inroad today? And David said, Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Yerachmeelites, and against the south of the Kenites.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:11 @ And David left not alive either man or woman, to bring to Gath, saying, That they may not tell on us, saying, So hath David done, and so is his custom all the days he hath dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:12 @ And Achish had confidence in David, saying, He hath surely spoiled his odor among his people, among Israel; and he will become unto me a servant for ever.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:1 @ And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their camps together for warfare, to fight with Israel; and Achish said unto David, Thou must know that thou shalt go out with me into the camp, thou and thy men.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:2 @ And David said to Achish, By reason of this wilt thou thyself ascertain what thy servant will do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee the guard of my head for all times.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:3 @ Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city; and Saul had removed those that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:5 @ And when Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:7 @ Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek out for me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at ‘En–dor.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:10 @ And Saul swore to her by the Lord, saying, As the Lord liveth, there shall no guilt attach to thee for this thing.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:14 @ And he said unto her, What is his form? And she said, An old man is coming up; and he is wrapt in a mantle. And so Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and prostrated himself.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:18 @ As thou didst not obey the voice of the Lord, and didst not execute his fierce wrath upon ‘Amalek; therefore hath the Lord done this thing unto thee this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:20 @ Then fell Saul hastily with his full length to the earth, and was greatly afraid, because of the words of Samuel: there was also no strength in him; for he had not eaten any food all that day, and all that night.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:23 @ But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants urged him much, as also the woman; and he hearkened unto their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon the bed.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:25 @ And she brought it near before Saul, and before his servants; and they ate. Then they rose up, and went away that night.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:2 @ And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands; but David and his men passed on at the last with Achish.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:3 @ Then said the princes of the Philistines, What are these Hebrews to do?

lesserot@1Samuel:29:4 @ And the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Cause this man to go back, that he may return to his place whither thou hast assigned him; but he shall not go down with us to the battle, that he may not become an adversary to us in the battle; for wherewith could this person reconcile himself unto his master? is it not by means of the heads of these men?

lesserot@1Samuel:29:5 @ Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in the dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?

lesserot@1Samuel:29:6 @ Then did Achish call David, and say unto him, As the Lord liveth, that thou art upright, and that thy going out and thy coming in with me in the camp is good in my eyes; for I have not found in thee any evil from the day of thy coming unto me until this day; nevertheless in the eyes of the lords thou art not good.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:8 @ And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant from the day that I have been before thee, until this day, that I shall not go to fight against the enemies of my Lord the king?

lesserot@1Samuel:29:9 @ And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou art good in my eyes, as an angel of God; nevertheless, the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:11 @ And David and his men rose up early to go away in the morning, to return unto the land of the Philistines; but the Philistines went up to Yizre’el.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:6 @ And David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was imbittered, every man for his sons and for his daughters; but David fortified himself in the Lord his God.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:8 @ And David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop! shall I overtake them? And he said to him, Pursue; for thou wilt surely overtake them, and certainly recover.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:12 @ And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins, and he ate, and then his spirit returned to him; for he had not eaten any bread, nor drunk any water, three days and three nights.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:15 @ And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not surrender me into the hand of my master, and then will I bring thee down to this troop.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:18 @ And David recovered all that the ‘Amalekites had taken away; and his two wives also did David rescue.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:29 @ And the servants of Abshalom did unto Amnon as Abshalom had commanded. Then arose all the king’s sons, and they rode off, every man on his mule, and fled.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:31 @ Then arose the king and rent his garments, and laid himself on the earth: and all his servants were standing by with their garments rent.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:32 @ But Yonadab the son of Shim’ah, David’s brother, commenced and said, Let not my Lord suppose that they have slain all the young men, the king’s sons; since Amnon alone is dead; for by the command of Abshalom was this ordained from the day that he violated Thamar his sister.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:33 @ And now let not my Lord the king take the thing to his heart, thinking, that all the king’s sons are dead; for Amnon alone is dead.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:36 @ And it happened, as he had just finished speaking, that, behold, the king’s sons came, and they lifted up their voice and wept; and also the king and all his servants wept very much.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:20 @ In order to change the appearance of the matter hath thy servant Joab done this thing: and my Lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all that is on the earth.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:22 @ And Joab fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself, and blessed the king: and Joab said, Today is thy servant convinced that I have found grace in thy eyes, my Lord, O king; since the king hath acted in accordance with the word of thy servant.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:24 @ And the king said, Let him repair to his own house, but my face he shall not see. So Abshalom repaired to his own house, but the king’s face he did not see.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:25 @ And like Abshalom there was no man as handsome in all Israel, so that he was greatly praised: from the sole of his foot up to the crown of his head there was no blemish on him.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:26 @ And when he shaved off his head he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels by the king’s weight.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:27 @ And there was born unto Abshalom three sons and one daughter, whose name was Thamar: this one was a woman of handsome appearance.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:30 @ He thereupon said unto his servants, See, Joab’s field is alongside of mine, and he hath barley there: go and set it on fire. And Abshalom’s servants set the field on fire.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:32 @ And it came to pass, that, when David was come to the top, where he used to bow himself down to God, behold, Chushai the Arkite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:34 @ But if thou shouldst return to the city, and say unto Abshalom, Thy servant will I be, O king; thy father’s servant have I been this long time past, and now will I also be thy servant: then mightest thou defeat for me the counsel of Achithophel.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:6 @ And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right and on his left.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:9 @ Then said Abishai the son of Zeruyah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my Lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and remove his head.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:13 @ And David and his men went on the way. And Shim’i went on the side of the mount opposite to him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones toward him, and cast dust.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:17 @ And Abshalom said to Chushai, Is this thy kindness for thy friend? why art thou not gone with thy friend?

lesserot@2Samuel:16:18 @ And Chushai said unto Abshalom, No; but whom the Lord, and this people, and all the men of Israel have chosen, his will I be, and with him will I remain.

lesserot@2Kings:17:18 @ Therefore became the Lord very angry with Israel, and he removed them from his presence: there was none left but the tribe of Judah alone.

lesserot@2Kings:18:6 @ And he adhered to the Lord, and turned not away from following him; but he kept his commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses.

lesserot@2Kings:18:12 @ Because they had not obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, but had transgressed his covenant, all that Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded; and had not obeyed, nor done accordingly.

lesserot@2Kings:18:14 @ And Hezekiah the king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have sinned; retire from me: what thou wilt impose on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria exacted from Hezekiah the king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.

lesserot@2Kings:18:17 @ And the king of Assyria sent Tharthan and Rub–sariss and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a strong army against Jerusalem.

lesserot@2Kings:18:21 @ Now, behold, thou trustedst thee upon yon cracked reed–staff, upon Egypt, which, if a man lean on it, will enter into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh the king of Egypt unto all that trust on him.

lesserot@2Kings:18:22 @ But if ye should say unto me, In the Lord our God have we trusted: is he not the one whose high–places and whose altars Hezekiah hath removed, when he said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar shall ye prostrate yourselves in Jerusalem?

lesserot@2Kings:18:25 @ Now am I come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord hath said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.

lesserot@2Kings:18:30 @ Neither let Hezekiah induce you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city will not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria:

lesserot@2Kings:18:31 @ Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus hath said the king of Assyria, Make a treaty of peace with me, and come out to me, and eat ye every man of his own vine, and every man of his fig–tree, and drink ye every man the waters of his cistern;

lesserot@2Kings:18:33 @ Have the gods of the nations delivered in anywise each his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?

lesserot@2Kings:19:1 @ And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the Lord.

lesserot@2Kings:19:3 @ And they said unto him, Thus hath said Hezekiah, A day of trouble, and of rebuke, and derision is this day; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.

lesserot@2Kings:19:4 @ Perhaps the Lord thy God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to blaspheme the living God; and who hath reproached with the words which the Lord thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up a prayer in behalf of the remnant that is still found here.

lesserot@2Kings:19:7 @ Behold, I will put an spirit in him, that when he will hear a rumor, he shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.

lesserot@2Kings:19:8 @ And Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.

lesserot@2Kings:19:19 @ And now, O Lord our God, save us, I beseech thee, out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord God, thou alone.

lesserot@2Kings:19:21 @ This is the word that the Lord hath spoken over him: She despiseth thee, she laugheth thee to scorn, the virgin daughter of Zion; behind thee shaketh her head the daughter of Jerusalem.

lesserot@2Kings:19:25 @ Hadst thou not heard that in distant ages I had prepared this? in the times of antiquity when I formed it? now have I brought it along, and it came to pass, to desolate into ruinous heaps fortified cities.

lesserot@2Kings:19:31 @ For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and that which escapeth out of mount Zion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

lesserot@2Kings:20:2 @ Then did he turn his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord, saying,

lesserot@2Chronicles:12:15 @ And the acts of Rehobo’am, the first and the last, behold, they are written in the history of Shem’ayah the prophet, and of ‘Iddo, the seer concerning the genealogies. And the wars of Rehobo’am and Jerobo’am all the days.

lesserot@2Chronicles:12:16 @ And Rehobo’am slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abiyah his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@2Chronicles:13:2 @ Three years he reigned in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Michayahu the daughter of Uriel of Gib’ah. And there was war between Abiyah and Jerobo’am.

lesserot@2Chronicles:13:5 @ Ought ye not to know that the Lord the God of Israel hath given the kingdom over Israel to David for eternity, yea, to him and to his sons by a covenant of salts?

lesserot@2Chronicles:13:6 @ But there rose up Jerobo’am the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, and rebelled against his lord.

lesserot@2Chronicles:13:12 @ And, behold, with us at our head, is the God, with his priests with trumpets for blowing the alarm, to sound an alarm against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the Lord the God of your fathers; for ye will not prosper.

lesserot@2Chronicles:13:17 @ And Abiyah and his people smote them with a great defeat, and there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.

lesserot@2Chronicles:13:22 @ And the rest of the acts of Abiyah, and his ways, and his speeches, are written in the writing of the prophet ‘Iddo.

lesserot@2Chronicles:15:9 @ And he assembled all Judah and Benjamin, and those that sojourned with them out of Ephraim and Menasseh, and out of Simeon; for they had joined him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.

lesserot@2Chronicles:15:17 @ But the high–places were not removed out of Israel; nevertheless the heart of Assa was entire all his days.

lesserot@2Chronicles:15:18 @ And be brought the things which his father had sanctified, and his own sanctified things, into the house of God,––silver, and gold, and vessels.

lesserot@2Chronicles:16:5 @ And it came to pass, when Ba’sha heard this, that he left off the building of Ramah, and stopped his work.

lesserot@2Chronicles:16:9 @ For as regardeth the Lord, his eyes roam throughout the whole earth, to hold strongly with those whose heart is entire toward him: thou hast done foolishly for this reason; because from this time forth there will be wars with thee.

lesserot@2Chronicles:16:10 @ Then became Assa incensed toward the seer, and put him in a prison–house; for he was in a rage with him because of this. And Assa oppressed some of the people at the same time.

lesserot@2Chronicles:16:12 @ And Assa became sick in the thirty–and–ninth year of his reign in his feet, his disease being exceedingly severe: yet even in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but to the physicians.

lesserot@2Chronicles:16:13 @ And Assa slept with his fathers, and died in the one–and–fortieth year of his reign.

lesserot@2Chronicles:16:14 @ And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had dug for himself in the city of David, and they laid him in the couch which was filled with sweet odors and divers kinds of spices mixed by the apothecary’s art; and they made for him a burning uncommonly great.

lesserot@2Chronicles:17:1 @ And Jehoshaphat his son became king in his stead, and strengthened himself against Israel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:17:2 @ And he placed forces in all the fortified cities of Judah, and placed garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim, which Assa his father had captured.

lesserot@2Chronicles:17:3 @ And the Lord was with Jehoshaphat; because he walked in the first ways of David his father, and sought not after the Be’alim;

lesserot@2Chronicles:17:4 @ On the contrary, after the God of his father did he seek, and in his commandments did he walk, but not after the doings of Israel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:17:5 @ Therefore did the Lord establish the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah gave presents to Jehoshaphat; and he had riches and honor in abundance.

lesserot@2Chronicles:17:6 @ And his heart raised itself up in the ways of the Lord, and he removed moreover the high–places and groves out of Judah.

lesserot@2Chronicles:17:7 @ And in the third year of his reign he sent his princes, even Ben–chayil, and ‘Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethanel, and Michayahu, to teach in the cities of Judah.

lesserot@2Chronicles:18:9 @ And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, dressed in their royal garments, and they were sitting in a threshing–floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria: and all the prophets prophesied before them.

lesserot@2Chronicles:18:16 @ Then said he, I saw all Israel scattered over the mountains, as flocks that have not a shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace.

lesserot@2Chronicles:18:18 @ And he said, Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right and his left.

lesserot@2Chronicles:18:19 @ And the Lord said, Who will persuade Achab the king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth–gil’ad? And one said––one saying after this manner, and another saying after that manner.

lesserot@2Chronicles:18:21 @ And he said, I will go forth, and I will become a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou wilt persuade him, and also prevail: go forth, and do so.

lesserot@2Chronicles:18:26 @ And say ye, Thus hath said the king, Put this man in the prison, and feed him with sparing bread and with sparing water, until I return in peace.

lesserot@2Chronicles:18:31 @ And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, This is the king of Israel. And they encompassed him to fight; and Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him; and God induced them to go away from him.

lesserot@2Chronicles:18:33 @ But a certain man drew his bow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the joints and the armor: wherefore he said to the chariot–driver, Turn about, and carry me out of the camp; for I am wounded.

lesserot@2Chronicles:19:1 @ And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace, to Jerusalem.

lesserot@2Chronicles:19:2 @ And there came out to meet him Jehu the son of Chanani the seer, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldst thou help the wicked, and love those that hate the Lord? and because of this there is wrath over thee from before the Lord.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:1 @ And it came to pass after this, that the children of Moab, and the children of ‘Ammon, and with them some of the ‘Ammonim, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:3 @ Then became Jehoshaphat afraid, and he directed his face to seek the Lord; and he proclaimed a fast over all Judah.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:7 @ Behold, it is thou, O our God, who hast driven out the inhabitants of this land from before thy people Israel; and thou gavest it to the seed of Abraham thy friend to eternity.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:9 @ If there should come over us any evil, the sword, punishment, or pestilence, or famine, will we stand before this house, and in thy presence, for thy name is in this house, and we will cry unto thee out of our distress, and thou wilt hear and help.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:12 @ O our God, wilt thou not execute justice on them? for there is no power in us against this great multitude that is coming against us; and we indeed know not what we are to do: but upon thee are our eyes.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:15 @ And he said, Listen ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus hath said the Lord unto you, Be ye not afraid and be not dismayed because of this great multitude; for not unto you belongeth the battle, but unto God.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:17 @ Ye shall not need to fight in this place: stand firmly, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, and be not dismayed; tomorrow go out to meet them, and the Lord will be with you.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:18 @ And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before the Lord, to prostrate themselves unto the Lord.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:20 @ And they rose up early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Thekoa’: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood forward and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; believe in the Lord your God, and ye will have permanence; believe his prophets, and ye will prosper.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:21 @ And he consulted with his people, and he appointed singers unto the Lord, and those that should praise in the holy ornaments, as they went out before the armed array, and said, Give thanks unto the Lord; for unto everlasting endureth his kindness.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:25 @ And then came Jehoshaphat and his people to plunder their booty, and they found among them in abundance both riches and dead bodies, and costly vessels, which they stript off for themselves, more than they could carry away: and they were three days in plundering the booty, for it was so much.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:26 @ And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Berachah; for there they blessed the Lord: therefore did they call the name of this place, The valley of Berachah, until this day.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:30 @ So the kingdom of Jehoshaphat had repose, and his God gave him rest all round about.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:31 @ And did Jehoshaphat reign over Judah; thirty and five years old was he when he became king, and twenty and five years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was ‘Azubah the daughter of Shilchi.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:32 @ And he walked in the way of his father Assa, and turned not aside from it, doing what is right in the eyes of the Lord.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:34 @ And the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, the first and the last, behold, they are written in the history of Jehu the son of Chanani, which was entered into the book of the kings of Israel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:35 @ And after this did Jehoshaphat the king of Judah connect himself with Achazyah the king of Israel, the same who acted very wickedly;

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:36 @ And he connected himself with him to make ships to go to Tharshish: and they made ships in ‘Ezyon–geber.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:37 @ Then prophesied Eli’ezer the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast connected thyself with Achazyahu, the Lord hath broken down thy works. And the ships were wrecked, so that they were not able to go to Tharshish.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:1 @ And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:4 @ Now when Jehoram was risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he slew all his brothers with the sword, and also some of the princes of Israel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:7 @ Yet would the Lord not destroy the house of David, on account of the covenant which he had made with David, and as he had said to give to him a government and to his sons at all times.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:8 @ In his days Edom revolted from under the power of Judah, and they appointed a king over themselves.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:9 @ Then did Jehoram go over with his princes, and all the chariots were with him; and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites who compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:10 @ Yet Edom revolted from under the power of Judah even until this day: then did Libnah revolt at the same time from under his power; because he had forsaken the Lord the God of his fathers.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:17 @ And they went up against Judah, and made an incursion into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, and also his sons, and his wives; and there was not left unto him any son, save Jehoachaz, the youngest of his sons.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:18 @ And after all this did the Lord afflict him in his bowels with a disease which was incurable.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:19 @ And it came to pass, from days to days, and when the time was expired, after two years, that his bowels passed out by reason of his disease: so he died of evil diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning for his fathers.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:1 @ And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Achazyahu his youngest son king in his stead; for the predatory band that was come with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So became Achazyahu, the son of Jehoram the king of Judah, king.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:2 @ Forty and two years old was Achazyahu when he became king, and one year did he reign in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Athalyahu the daughter of ‘Omri.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:3 @ Also he walked in the ways of the house of Achab; for his mother was his counsellor to act wickedly.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:4 @ And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord like the house of Achab; for these were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:9 @ And he sought Achazyahu, and they caught him while he was hiding himself in Samaria, and they brought him to Jehu, and they slew him, and buried him; because they said, He is son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the Lord with all his heart. And there was none of the house of Achazyahu who had sufficient power the kingdom.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:11 @ But Yehoshab’ath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Achazyahu, and stole him away from the midst of the king’s sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse into the bed–chamber. So did Yehoshab’ath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Yehoyada’ the priest,––for she was the sister of Achazyahu,––hide him from ‘Athalyahu, so that she slew him not.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:4 @ This is the thing that ye shall do, A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be gatekeepers at the thresholds;

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:7 @ And the Levites shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand: and he who cometh into the house shall be put to death; and be ye with the king when he cometh in, and when he goeth out.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:8 @ And the Levites and all Judah did in accordance with all that Yehoyada’ the priest had commanded, and they took every man his men that came in on the sabbath, with those that were to be relieved on the sabbath; for Yehoyada’ the priest had not dismissed the divisions.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:10 @ And he placed all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the temple, all round about the king,

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:11 @ Then did they bring forth the king’s son, and put upon him the crown, and the testimony, and they made him king. And Yehoyada’ and his sons anointed him, and said, Long live the king.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:13 @ And she looked, and behold, the king stood upon his stand at the entrance, and the princes and the trumpets were around the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew on trumpets; also the singers leading with instruments of music in the songs of praise; and ‘Athalyah rent her clothes, and said, "Treason, treason."

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:17 @ And then came all the people into the house of Ba’al, and pulled it down, and his altars and his images did they break in pieces, and Mathhan the priest of Ba’al they slew before the altars.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:1 @ Seven years old was Joash when he became king, and forty years did he reign in Jerusalem: and the name of his mother was Zibyah of Beer–sheba’.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:4 @ And it came to pass after this, that Yoash had it in his mind to renew the house of the Lord.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:5 @ And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and ye shall make haste in this matter. But the Levites made no haste.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:16 @ And they buried him in the city of David among the kings; because he had done a good thing in Israel, and toward God, and his house.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:18 @ And they forsook the house of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols: and there came wrath over Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:22 @ And king Joash did not remember the kindness which Yehoyada’ his father had shown to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The Lord will see, and require.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:25 @ And when these were gone away from him––for they left him with great diseases––his own servants conspired against him because of the blood of the sons of Yehoyada’ the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:27 @ Now concerning his sons, and the great prophecy concerning him, and the founding of the house of God, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amazyahu his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:1 @ When twenty and five years old did Amazyahu become king, and twenty and nine years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Yeho’addan of Jerusalem.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:3 @ And it came to pass, when the kingdom was firmly established to him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:4 @ But their children he put not to death; but as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, that the Lord had commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, nor shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:9 @ Then said Amazyahu to the man of God, But what is it to be done for the hundred talents which I have given to the band of Israel? And the man of God said, The Lord hath to give thee much more than this.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:11 @ And Amazyahu strengthened himself, and led forth his people, and went to the Valley of Salt, and smote of the children of Se’ir ten thousand.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:16 @ And it came to pass, as he was speaking unto him, that he said unto him, Have we ever appointed thee as a counsellor to the king? forbear this: why shouldst thou be smitten? Then did the prophet forbear; and he said, I know that God hath resolved to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:22 @ And Judah was defeated before Israel, and they fled every man to his tents.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:27 @ Now from the time that Amazyahu departed from following the Lord, they raised a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: wherefore he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:28 @ And they carried him on horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:1 @ And all the people of Judah took ‘Uzziyahu, who was then sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:2 @ He it was that built Eloth, and brought it back to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:3 @ Sixteen years old was ‘Uzziyahu when he became king, and fifty and two years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Yecholyah of Jerusalem.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:4 @ And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father Amazyahu had done.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:8 @ And the ‘Ammonites gave presents to ‘Uzziyahu: and his name extended even to the entrance of Egypt; for he became exceedingly strong.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:15 @ And he made in Jerusalem artificial contrivances, contrived by a skilful man, to be on the towers and upon the ramparts, to shoot off arrows and great stones. And his name extended ever so far abroad; for he was marvelously assisted, till he became strong.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:16 @ But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction; and he became unfaithful against the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the Lord to burn incense upon the altar of incense.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:19 @ But ‘Uzziyahu became wroth, and in his hand was a censer to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of the Lord, above the altar of the incense.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:20 @ And when ‘Azaryahu the chief priest, with all the priests, turned about toward him, behold, he was leprous on his forehead, and they hurried him away from there: yea, he also made haste to go out, because the Lord had afflicted him.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:21 @ And king ‘Uzziyahu was a leper until the day of his death, and dwelt in the leper–house, as a leper; for he was excluded from the house of the Lord: and Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judged the people of the land.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:23 @ And ‘Uzziyahu slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial–field which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@2Chronicles:28:3 @ And he also burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his sons in the fire, after the abominable acts of the nations that the Lord had driven out from before the children of Israel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:28:5 @ Wherefore the Lord his God gave him up into the hand of the king of Syria; and they defeated his people, and carried away a great multitude of them captives, and brought them to Damascus.

lesserot@Ezra:9:13 @ And after all that is come over us for our evil deeds, and for our great guiltiness, seeing that thou our God hast spared us less than our iniquities, and hast given us such deliverance as this:

lesserot@Esther:1:12 @ But queen Vashti refused to come at the word of the king brought by the hand of the chamberlains; and the king was very wroth, and his fury burnt in him.

lesserot@Esther:1:17 @ For the conduct of the queen will go abroad unto all the women, so that they will despise their husbands in their eyes, when it shall be reported, King Achashverosh ordered Vashti the queen to be brought into his presence, but she came not.

lesserot@Esther:1:18 @ And even this day will the ladies of Persia and Media, who have heard of the conduct of the queen, say this unto all the princes of the king; and there will arise too much contempt and quarrel.

lesserot@Esther:1:20 @ And when the king’s decree which he will make shall be published throughout all his kingdom, however great it is: all the wives will show respect to their husbands, unto every one, from the great even to the small.

lesserot@Esther:1:22 @ And he sent letters unto all the provinces of the king, unto every province according to its writing, and to every people according to its language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, however he may speak according to the language of his people.

lesserot@Esther:2:2 @ Thus said the king’s young men, his servants, Let there be sought for the king virgins handsome in appearance;

lesserot@Esther:2:3 @ And let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the young virgins, handsome in appearance, unto Shushan the capital, into the house of the women, under the custody of Hege the king’s chamberlain, the keeper of the women; and let them give them their customary anointings;

lesserot@Esther:2:7 @ And he had brought up Hadassah, that is Esther, the daughter of his uncle; for she had neither father nor mother, and the maiden was beautiful in form and handsome in appearance; and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai had taken her to himself as a daughter.

lesserot@Esther:2:8 @ And it came to pass, when the king’s order and his decree were heard, and when many maidens were brought together unto Shushan the capital, under the custody of Hegai, that Esther also was brought unto the king’s house, under the custody of Hegai, the keeper of the women.

lesserot@Esther:2:9 @ And the maiden was pleasing in his eyes, and she obtained favor before him; and he made haste to give her her anointings, with her presents, and the seven maidens, who were selected to be given her, out of the king’s house: and he preferred her and her maidens with the best things in the house of the women.

lesserot@Esther:2:20 @ Esther had not yet told of her descent nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her; and Esther did the order of Mordecai, equally as when she was under his guardianship.

lesserot@Esther:3:1 @ After these events did king Achashverosh make great Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and he advanced him; and he placed his seat above that of all the princes that were with him.

lesserot@Esther:3:6 @ But it appeared too contemptible in his eyes to lay his hand on Mordecai alone: for they had told him of the people of Mordecai: therefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews that were throughout all the kingdom of Achashverosh, the people of Mordecai.

lesserot@Esther:3:10 @ And the king drew his signet–ring from off his hand, and gave it unto Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the adversary of the Jews.

lesserot@Esther:4:1 @ When Mordecai ascertained all that had been done, Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and cried with a loud and bitter cry;

lesserot@Esther:4:3 @ And in each and every province, in every place whither the king’s decree and his law had reached, there was great mourning for the Jews, with fasting and weeping and wailing; and a sackcloth with ashes became the bed of the great.

lesserot@Esther:4:4 @ Then came the maidens of Esther with her chamberlains and told it her; and the queen was exceedingly terrified; and she sent garments to clothe Mordecai, and to remove his sackcloth from him, but he accepted them not.

lesserot@Esther:4:5 @ Then called Esther for Hatach, one of the king’s chamberlains, whom he had appointed to attend upon her, and gave him a charge for Mordecai to know what this was, and why this was.

lesserot@Esther:4:13 @ Then said Mordecai to bring this answer back to Esther, Imagine not in thy soul to be able to escape in the king’s house out of all the Jews.

lesserot@Esther:4:14 @ For if thou do indeed maintain silence at this time, enlargement and deliverance will arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father’s house will perish: and who knoweth whether thou hast not for a time like this attained to the royal dignity?

lesserot@Esther:4:15 @ Then said Esther to bring this answer back to Mordecai,

lesserot@Esther:5:1 @ And it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel, and placed herself in the inner court of the king’s house, opposite the king’s apartment; and the king was sitting upon his royal throne in the royal apartment, opposite to the entrance of the house.

lesserot@Esther:5:2 @ And it happened, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained grace in his eyes; and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand; and Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.

lesserot@Esther:5:4 @ And Esther said, If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet which I have prepared for him.

lesserot@Esther:5:10 @ Nevertheless Haman refrained himself, and went to his house: he then sent and had his friends brought in with Zeresh his wife.

lesserot@Esther:5:11 @ And Haman recounted to them the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the king had made him great, and how he had advanced him above the princes and the servants of the king.

lesserot@Esther:5:13 @ Yet all this profiteth me nothing, every time that I see Mordecai the Jew sitting in the king’s gate.

lesserot@Esther:5:14 @ Then said unto him Zeresh his wife with all his friends, Let them make a gallows of fifty cubits high, and in the mourning speak unto the king that they may hang Mordecai thereon; and then go thou in with the king unto the banquet joyfully.

lesserot@Esther:6:3 @ And the king said, What honor and distinction have been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s young men, his servants, There hath nothing been done with him.

lesserot@Esther:6:6 @ So Haman came in; and the king said unto him, What shall be done with the man whom the king desireth to honor? And Haman said in his heart, To whom would the king desire to do honor more than to myself?

lesserot@Esther:6:8 @ Let them bring a royal apparel which the king hath worn, and a horse on which the king hath ridden, and let there be placed a royal crown on his head.

lesserot@Esther:6:12 @ And Mordecai thereupon returned to the king’s gate; but Haman hastened to his house, mourning, and having his head covered.

lesserot@Esther:6:13 @ And Haman related to Zeresh his wife and to all his friends all that had befallen him: then said unto him his wise men and Zeresh his wife, If Mordecai, before whom thou hast begun to fall, be of the seed of the Jews, thou wilt not prevail against him, but thou wilt surely fall before him.

lesserot@Esther:7:5 @ Then spoke king Achashverosh and said unto Esther the queen, Who is this, and where is he, whose heart hath emboldened him to do so?

lesserot@Esther:7:6 @ And Esther said, An adversary, and inimical man, this wicked Haman. Then became Haman terrified before the king and the queen.

lesserot@Esther:7:7 @ And the king arose in his fury from the banquet of wine, and went into the palace–garden: and Haman remained behind to make request for his life of Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil fully determined.

lesserot@Esther:8:2 @ And the king took off his signet–ring which he had taken away from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai: and Esther appointed Mordecai over the house of Haman.

lesserot@Esther:8:3 @ And Esther spoke again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and wept, and besought him to do away the evil of Haman the Agagite, and his device which he had devised against the Jews.

lesserot@Esther:8:5 @ And she said, If it be pleasing to the king, and if I have found grace before him, and the thing seem proper before the king, and I be pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to recall the letters, the device of Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he hath written to exterminate the Jews who are in all the provinces of the king.

lesserot@Esther:8:7 @ Then said king Achashverosh unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, the house of Haman have I given to Esther, and him have they hanged on the gallows, because he had stretched out his hand against the Jews.

lesserot@Esther:8:17 @ And in every province, and in every city, whithersoever the king’s command reached with his law, there were joy and gladness for the Jews, entertainments and a feast–day: and many of the people of the land became Jews; for the dread of the Jews had fallen upon them.

lesserot@Esther:9:1 @ And in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day thereof, when the king’s command with his law drew near to he put into execution, on the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to have power over them, which had been changed nevertheless, so that the Jews had power over those that hated them,

lesserot@Esther:9:4 @ For Mordecai was great in the king’s house, and his fame went throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.

lesserot@Esther:9:13 @ Then said Esther, If it please the king, let it tomorrow also be granted to the Jews who are in Shushan to do according to the law of this day, and let the ten sons of Haman be hanged on the gallows.

lesserot@Esther:9:25 @ But when came before the king, he ordered by that letter that his wicked device, which he had devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head: and they hanged him and his sons on the gallows.

lesserot@Esther:9:26 @ Therefore did they call these days Purim, after the name of Pur: therefore, because of all the words of this letter, both for that which they had experienced thereby, and for that which had occurred unto them,

lesserot@Esther:9:29 @ Then wrote Esther the queen, the daughter of Abichayil, with Mordecai the Jew, with all due strength, to confirm this letter of Purim the second time.

lesserot@Esther:10:2 @ And all the acts of his strength and of his might, and the exposition of the greatness of Mordecai, wherewith the king made him great, behold they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia.

lesserot@Esther:10:3 @ For Mordecai the Jew was the second in rank after king Achashverosh, and great among the Jews, and acceptable to the multitude of his brethren, a promoter of good to his people, and speaking peace to all its seed.
