Joshua:1:1 @ After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister,
rsv@Joshua:1:3 @ Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given to you, as I promised to Moses.
rsv@Joshua:3:13 @ And when the soles of the feet of the priests who bear the ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan shall be stopped from flowing, and the waters coming down from above shall stand in one heap."
rsv@Joshua:3:16 @ the waters coming down from above stood and rose up in a heap far off, at Adam, the city that is beside Zar'ethan, and those flowing down toward the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, were wholly cut off; and the people passed over opposite Jericho.
rsv@Joshua:3:17 @ And while all Israel were passing over on dry ground, the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, until all the nation finished passing over the Jordan.
rsv@Joshua:4:3 @ and command them, `Take twelve stones from here out of the midst of the Jordan, from the very place where the priests' feet stood, and carry them over with you, and lay them down in the place where you lodge tonight.'"
rsv@Joshua:4:5 @ and Joshua said to them, "Pass on before the ark of the LORD your God into the midst of the Jordan, and take up each of you a stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the people of Israel,
rsv@Joshua:4:8 @ And the men of Israel did as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, according to the number of the tribes of the people of Israel, as the LORD told Joshua; and they carried them over with them to the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.
rsv@Joshua:4:9 @ And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of the Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests bearing the ark of the covenant had stood; and they are there to this day.
rsv@Joshua:4:10 @ For the priests who bore the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan, until everything was finished that the LORD commanded Joshua to tell the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua. The people passed over in haste;
rsv@Joshua:4:18 @ And when the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the LORD came up from the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up on dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and overflowed all its banks, as before.
rsv@Joshua:4:24 @ so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the LORD is mighty; that you may fear the LORD your God for ever."
rsv@Joshua:5:6 @ For the people of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the nation, the men of war that came forth out of Egypt, perished, because they did not hearken to the voice of the LORD; to them the LORD swore that he would not let them see the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
rsv@Joshua:6:2 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, "See, I have given into your hand Jericho, with its king and mighty men of valor.
rsv@Joshua:7:1 @ But the people of Israel broke faith in regard to the devoted things; for Achan the son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of the devoted things; and the anger of the LORD burned against the people of Israel.
rsv@Joshua:7:8 @ O Lord, what can I say, when Israel has turned their backs before their enemies!
rsv@Joshua:7:12 @ Therefore the people of Israel cannot stand before their enemies; they turn their backs before their enemies, because they have become a thing for destruction. I will be with you no more, unless you destroy the devoted things from among you.
rsv@Joshua:7:13 @ Up, sanctify the people, and say, `Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow; for thus says the LORD, God of Israel, "There are devoted things in the midst of you, O Israel; you cannot stand before your enemies, until you take away the devoted things from among you."
rsv@Joshua:7:14 @ In the morning therefore you shall be brought near by your tribes; and the tribe which the LORD takes shall come near by families; and the family which the LORD takes shall come near by households; and the household which the LORD takes shall come near man by man.
rsv@Joshua:7:17 @ and he brought near the families of Judah, and the family of the Zer'ahites was taken; and he brought near the family of the Zer'ahites man by man, and Zabdi was taken;
rsv@Joshua:7:18 @ and he brought near his household man by man, and Achan the son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.
rsv@Joshua:8:3 @ So Joshua arose, and all the fighting men, to go up to Ai; and Joshua chose thirty thousand mighty men of valor, and sent them forth by night.
rsv@Joshua:8:22 @ And the others came forth from the city against them; so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side; and Israel smote them, until there was left none that survived or escaped.
rsv@Joshua:10:2 @ he feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
rsv@Joshua:10:4 @ "Come up to me, and help me, and let us smite Gibeon; for it has made peace with Joshua and with the people of Israel."
rsv@Joshua:10:5 @ Then the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gathered their forces, and went up with all their armies and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.
rsv@Joshua:10:7 @ So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.
rsv@Joshua:10:13 @ And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation took vengeance on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the midst of heaven, and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.
rsv@Joshua:10:19 @ but do not stay there yourselves, pursue your enemies, fall upon their rear, do not let them enter their cities; for the LORD your God has given them into your hand."
rsv@Joshua:10:25 @ And Joshua said to them, "Do not be afraid or dismayed; be strong and of good courage; for thus the LORD will do to all your enemies against whom you fight."
rsv@Joshua:11:3 @ to the Canaanites in the east and the west, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Per'izzites, and the Jeb'usites in the hill country, and the Hivites under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
rsv@Joshua:11:8 @ And the LORD gave them into the hand of Israel, who smote them and chased them as far as Great Sidon and Mis'rephoth-ma'im, and eastward as far as the valley of Mizpeh; and they smote them, until they left none remaining.
rsv@Joshua:11:20 @ For it was the LORD's doing to harden their hearts that they should come against Israel in battle, in order that they should be utterly destroyed, and should receive no mercy but be exterminated, as the LORD commanded Moses.
rsv@Joshua:12:2 @ Sihon king of the Amorites who dwelt at Heshbon, and ruled from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and from the middle of the valley as far as the river Jabbok, the boundary of the Ammonites, that is, half of Gilead,
rsv@Joshua:13:6 @ all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Mis'rephoth-ma'im, even all the Sido'nians. I will myself drive them out from before the people of Israel; only allot the land to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you.
rsv@Joshua:13:9 @ from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the tableland of Med'eba as far as Dibon;
rsv@Joshua:13:13 @ Yet the people of Israel did not drive out the Gesh'urites or the Ma-ac'athites; but Geshur and Ma'acath dwell in the midst of Israel to this day.
rsv@Joshua:13:15 @ And Moses gave an inheritance to the tribe of the Reubenites according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:13:16 @ So their territory was from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the tableland by Med'eba;
rsv@Joshua:13:21 @ that is, all the cities of the tableland, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses defeated with the leaders of Mid'ian, Evi and Rekem and Zur and Hur and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who dwelt in the land.
rsv@Joshua:13:23 @ And the border of the people of Reuben was the Jordan as a boundary. This was the inheritance of the Reubenites, according to their families with their cities and villages.
rsv@Joshua:13:24 @ And Moses gave an inheritance also to the tribe of the Gadites, according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:13:26 @ and from Heshbon to Ra'math-miz'peh and Bet'onim, and from Mahana'im to the territory of Debir,
rsv@Joshua:13:28 @ This is the inheritance of the Gadites according to their families, with their cities and villages.
rsv@Joshua:13:29 @ And Moses gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manas'seh; it was allotted to the half-tribe of the Manas'sites according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:13:31 @ and half Gilead, and Ash'taroth, and Ed're-i, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan; these were allotted to the people of Machir the son of Manas'seh for the half of the Machirites according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:14:11 @ I am still as strong to this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me; my strength now is as my strength was then, for war, and for going and coming.
rsv@Joshua:15:1 @ The lot for the tribe of the people of Judah according to their families reached southward to the boundary of Edom, to the wilderness of Zin at the farthest south.
rsv@Joshua:15:7 @ and the boundary goes up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, and so northward, turning toward Gilgal, which is opposite the ascent of Adum'mim, which is on the south side of the valley; and the boundary passes along to the waters of En-she'mesh, and ends at En-ro'gel;
rsv@Joshua:15:12 @ And the west boundary was the Great Sea with its coast-line. This is the boundary round about the people of Judah according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:15:16 @ And Caleb said, "Whoever smites Kir'iath-se'pher, and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife."
rsv@Joshua:15:20 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of the people of Judah according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:15:37 @ Zenan, Hadash'ah, Mig'dal-gad,
rsv@Joshua:15:38 @ Di'lean, Mizpeh, Jok'theel,
rsv@Joshua:15:48 @ And in the hill country, Shamir, Jattir, Socoh,
rsv@Joshua:15:61 @ In the wilderness, Beth-arabah, Middin, Seca'cah,
rsv@Joshua:16:5 @ The territory of the E'phraimites by their families was as follows: the boundary of their inheritance on the east was At'aroth-ad'dar as far as Upper Beth-hor'on,
rsv@Joshua:16:6 @ and the boundary goes thence to the sea; on the north is Mich-me'thath; then on the east the boundary turns round toward Ta'anath-shi'loh, and passes along beyond it on the east to Jan-o'ah,
rsv@Joshua:16:8 @ From Tap'puah the boundary goes westward to the brook Kanah, and ends at the sea. Such is the inheritance of the tribe of the E'phraimites by their families,
rsv@Joshua:16:9 @ together with the towns which were set apart for the E'phraimites within the inheritance of the Manas'sites, all those towns with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:16:10 @ However they did not drive out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: so the Canaanites have dwelt in the midst of E'phraim to this day but have become slaves to do forced labor.
rsv@Joshua:17:2 @ And allotments were made to the rest of the tribe of Manas'seh, by their families, Abi-e'zer, Helek, As'ri-el, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemi'da; these were the male descendants of Manas'seh the son of Joseph, by their families.
rsv@Joshua:17:3 @ Now Zeloph'ehad the son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manas'seh, had no sons, but only daughters; and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
rsv@Joshua:17:7 @ The territory of Manas'seh reached from Asher to Mich-me'thath, which is east of Shechem; then the boundary goes along southward to the inhabitants of En-tap'puah.
rsv@Joshua:17:10 @ the land to the south being E'phraim's and that to the north being Manas'seh's, with the sea forming its boundary; on the north Asher is reached, and on the east Is'sachar.
rsv@Joshua:18:11 @ The lot of the tribe of Benjamin according to its families came up, and the territory allotted to it fell between the tribe of Judah and the tribe of Joseph.
rsv@Joshua:18:17 @ then it bends in a northerly direction going on to En-she'mesh, and thence goes to Geli'loth, which is opposite the ascent of Adum'mim; then it goes down to the Stone of Bohan the son of Reuben;
rsv@Joshua:18:20 @ The Jordan forms its boundary on the eastern side. This is the inheritance of the tribe of Benjamin, according to its families, boundary by boundary round about.
rsv@Joshua:18:21 @ Now the cities of the tribe of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, Beth-hoglah, Emek-ke'ziz,
rsv@Joshua:18:26 @ Mizpeh, Chephi'rah, Mozah,
rsv@Joshua:18:28 @ Zela, Ha-eleph, Jebus (that is, Jerusalem), Gib'e-ah and Kir'iath-je'arim--fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the tribe of Benjamin according to its families.
rsv@Joshua:19:1 @ The second lot came out for Simeon, for the tribe of Simeon, according to its families; and its inheritance was in the midst of the inheritance of the tribe of Judah.
rsv@Joshua:19:8 @ together with all the villages round about these cities as far as Ba'alath-beer, Ramah of the Negeb. This was the inheritance of the tribe of Simeon according to its families.
rsv@Joshua:19:9 @ The inheritance of the tribe of Simeon formed part of the territory of Judah; because the portion of the tribe of Judah was too large for them, the tribe of Simeon obtained an inheritance in the midst of their inheritance.
rsv@Joshua:19:10 @ The third lot came up for the tribe of Zeb'ulun, according to its families. And the territory of its inheritance reached as far as Sarid;
rsv@Joshua:19:16 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of Zeb'ulun, according to its families--these cities with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:19:17 @ The fourth lot came out for Is'sachar, for the tribe of Is'sachar, according to its families.
rsv@Joshua:19:23 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of Is'sachar, according to its families--the cities with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:19:24 @ The fifth lot came out for the tribe of Asher according to its families.
rsv@Joshua:19:26 @ Allam'melech, Amad, and Mishal; on the west it touches Carmel and Shihor-lib'nath,
rsv@Joshua:19:31 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of Asher according to its families--these cities with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:19:32 @ The sixth lot came out for the tribe of Naph'tali, for the tribe of Naph'tali, according to its families.
rsv@Joshua:19:33 @ And its boundary ran from Heleph, from the oak in Za-anan'nim, and Ad'ami-nekeb, and Jabneel, as far as Lakkum; and it ended at the Jordan;
rsv@Joshua:19:38 @ Yiron, Mig'dal-el, Horem, Beth-anath, and Beth-she'mesh-- nineteen cities with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:19:39 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of Naph'tali according to its families--the cities with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:19:40 @ The seventh lot came out for the tribe of Dan, according to its families.
rsv@Joshua:19:48 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of Dan, according to their families--these cities with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:20:5 @ And if the avenger of blood pursues him, they shall not give up the slayer into his hand; because he killed his neighbor unwittingly, having had no enmity against him in times past.
rsv@Joshua:20:9 @ These were the cities designated for all the people of Israel, and for the stranger sojourning among them, that any one who killed a person without intent could flee there, so that he might not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, till he stood before the congregation.
rsv@Joshua:21:4 @ The lot came out for the families of the Ko'hathites. So those Levites who were descendants of Aaron the priest received by lot from the tribes of Judah, Simeon, and Benjamin, thirteen cities.
rsv@Joshua:21:5 @ And the rest of the Ko'hathites received by lot from the families of the tribe of E'phraim, from the tribe of Dan and the half-tribe of Manas'seh, ten cities.
rsv@Joshua:21:6 @ The Gersonites received by lot from the families of the tribe of Is'sachar, from the tribe of Asher, from the tribe of Naph'tali, and from the half-tribe of Manas'seh in Bashan, thirteen cities.
rsv@Joshua:21:7 @ The Merar'ites according to their families received from the tribe of Reuben, the tribe of Gad, and the tribe of Zeb'ulun, twelve cities.
rsv@Joshua:21:10 @ which went to the descendants of Aaron, one of the families of the Ko'hathites who belonged to the Levites; since the lot fell to them first.
rsv@Joshua:21:17 @ then out of the tribe of Benjamin, Gibeon with its pasture lands, Geba with its pasture lands,
rsv@Joshua:21:20 @ As to the rest of the Ko'hathites belonging to the Ko'hathite families of the Levites, the cities allotted to them were out of the tribe of E'phraim.
rsv@Joshua:21:26 @ The cities of the families of the rest of the Ko'hathites were ten in all with their pasture lands.
rsv@Joshua:21:27 @ And to the Gershonites, one of the families of the Levites, were given out of the half-tribe of Manas'seh, Golan in Bashan with its pasture lands, the city of refuge for the slayer, and Beesh'terah with its pasture lands--two cities;
rsv@Joshua:21:30 @ and out of the tribe of Asher, Mishal with its pasture lands, Abdon with its pasture lands,
rsv@Joshua:21:33 @ The cities of the several families of the Gershonites were in all thirteen cities with their pasture lands.
rsv@Joshua:21:34 @ And to the rest of the Levites, the Merar'ite families, were given out of the tribe of Zeb'ulun, Jok'ne-am with its pasture lands, Kartah with its pasture lands,
rsv@Joshua:21:40 @ As for the cities of the several Merar'ite families, that is, the remainder of the families of the Levites, those allotted to them were in all twelve cities.
rsv@Joshua:21:41 @ The cities of the Levites in the midst of the possession of the people of Israel were in all forty-eight cities with their pasture lands.
rsv@Joshua:21:44 @ And the LORD gave them rest on every side just as he had sworn to their fathers; not one of all their enemies had withstood them, for the LORD had given all their enemies into their hands.
rsv@Joshua:21:45 @ Not one of all the good promises which the LORD had made to the house of Israel had failed; all came to pass.
rsv@Joshua:22:4 @ And now the LORD your God has given rest to your brethren, as he promised them; therefore turn and go to your home in the land where your possession lies, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side of the Jordan.
rsv@Joshua:22:8 @ he said to them, "Go back to your homes with much wealth, and with very many cattle, with silver, gold, bronze, and iron, and with much clothing; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren."
rsv@Joshua:22:14 @ and with him ten chiefs, one from each of the tribal families of Israel, every one of them the head of a family among the clans of Israel.
rsv@Joshua:22:16 @ "Thus says the whole congregation of the LORD, `What is this treachery which you have committed against the God of Israel in turning away this day from following the LORD, by building yourselves an altar this day in rebellion against the LORD?
rsv@Joshua:22:21 @ Then the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manas'seh said in answer to the heads of the families of Israel,
rsv@Joshua:22:22 @ "The Mighty One, God, the LORD! The Mighty One, God, the LORD! He knows; and let Israel itself know! If it was in rebellion or in breach of faith toward the LORD, spare us not today
rsv@Joshua:22:24 @ Nay, but we did it from fear that in time to come your children might say to our children, `What have you to do with the LORD, the God of Israel?
rsv@Joshua:22:25 @ For the LORD has made the Jordan a boundary between us and you, you Reubenites and Gadites; you have no portion in the LORD.' So your children might make our children cease to worship the LORD.
rsv@Joshua:22:30 @ When Phin'ehas the priest and the chiefs of the congregation, the heads of the families of Israel who were with him, heard the words that the Reubenites and the Gadites and the Manas'sites spoke, it pleased them well.
rsv@Joshua:22:31 @ And Phin'ehas the son of Elea'zar the priest said to the Reubenites and the Gadites and the Manas'sites, "Today we know that the LORD is in the midst of us, because you have not committed this treachery against the LORD; now you have saved the people of Israel from the hand of the LORD."
rsv@Joshua:23:1 @ A long time afterward, when the LORD had given rest to Israel from all their enemies round about, and Joshua was old and well advanced in years,
rsv@Joshua:23:5 @ The LORD your God will push them back before you, and drive them out of your sight; and you shall possess their land, as the LORD your God promised you.
rsv@Joshua:23:7 @ that you may not be mixed with these nations left here among you, or make mention of the names of their gods, or swear by them, or serve them, or bow down yourselves to them,
rsv@Joshua:23:10 @ One man of you puts to flight a thousand, since it is the LORD your God who fights for you, as he promised you.
rsv@Joshua:23:14 @ "And now I am about to go the way of all the earth, and you know in your hearts and souls, all of you, that not one thing has failed of all the good things which the LORD your God promised concerning you; all have come to pass for you, not one of them has failed.
rsv@Joshua:23:15 @ But just as all the good things which the LORD your God promised concerning you have been fulfilled for you, so the LORD will bring upon you all the evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God has given you,
rsv@Joshua:24:5 @ And I sent Moses and Aaron, and I plagued Egypt with what I did in the midst of it; and afterwards I brought you out.
rsv@Judges:1:21 @ But the people of Benjamin did not drive out the Jeb'usites who dwelt in Jerusalem; so the Jeb'usites have dwelt with the people of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
rsv@Judges:1:24 @ And the spies saw a man coming out of the city, and they said to him, "Pray, show us the way into the city, and we will deal kindly with you."
rsv@Judges:1:25 @ And he showed them the way into the city; and they smote the city with the edge of the sword, but they let the man and all his family go.
rsv@Judges:2:6 @ When Joshua dismissed the people, the people of Israel went each to his inheritance to take possession of the land.
rsv@Judges:2:14 @ So the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he gave them over to plunderers, who plundered them; and he sold them into the power of their enemies round about, so that they could no longer withstand their enemies.
rsv@Judges:2:18 @ Whenever the LORD raised up judges for them, the LORD was with the judge, and he saved them from the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the LORD was moved to pity by their groaning because of those who afflicted and oppressed them.
rsv@Judges:3:2 @ it was only that the generations of the people of Israel might know war, that he might teach war to such at least as had not known it before.
rsv@Judges:3:8 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cu'shan-rishatha'im king of Mesopota'mia; and the people of Israel served Cu'shan-rishatha'im eight years.
rsv@Judges:3:10 @ The Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel; he went out to war, and the LORD gave Cu'shan-rishatha'im king of Mesopota'mia into his hand; and his hand prevailed over Cu'shan-rishatha'im.
rsv@Judges:3:15 @ But when the people of Israel cried to the LORD, the LORD raised up for them a deliverer, Ehud, the son of Gera, the Benjaminite, a left-handed man. The people of Israel sent tribute by him to Eglon the king of Moab.
rsv@Judges:3:28 @ And he said to them, "Follow after me; for the LORD has given your enemies the Moabites into your hand." So they went down after him, and seized the fords of the Jordan against the Moabites, and allowed not a man to pass over.
rsv@Judges:4:19 @ And he said to her, "Pray, give me a little water to drink; for I am thirsty." So she opened a skin of milk and gave him a drink and covered him.
rsv@Judges:5:13 @ Then down marched the remnant of the noble; the people of the LORD marched down for him against the mighty.
rsv@Judges:5:14 @ From E'phraim they set out thither into the valley, following you, Benjamin, with your kinsmen; from Machir marched down the commanders, and from Zeb'ulun those who bear the marshal's staff;
rsv@Judges:5:21 @ The torrent Kishon swept them away, the onrushing torrent, the torrent Kishon. March on, my soul, with might!
rsv@Judges:5:23 @ "Curse Meroz, says the angel of the LORD, curse bitterly its inhabitants, because they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty.
rsv@Judges:5:25 @ He asked water and she gave him milk, she brought him curds in a lordly bowl.
rsv@Judges:5:28 @ "Out of the window she peered, the mother of Sis'era gazed through the lattice: `Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why tarry the hoofbeats of his chariots?'
rsv@Judges:5:31 @ "So perish all thine enemies, O LORD! But thy friends be like the sun as he rises in his might." And the land had rest for forty years.
rsv@Judges:6:1 @ The people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD gave them into the hand of Mid'ian seven years.
rsv@Judges:6:2 @ And the hand of Mid'ian prevailed over Israel; and because of Mid'ian the people of Israel made for themselves the dens which are in the mountains, and the caves and the strongholds.
rsv@Judges:6:3 @ For whenever the Israelites put in seed the Mid'ianites and the Amal'ekites and the people of the East would come up and attack them;
rsv@Judges:6:5 @ For they would come up with their cattle and their tents, coming like locusts for number; both they and their camels could not be counted; so that they wasted the land as they came in.
rsv@Judges:6:6 @ And Israel was brought very low because of Mid'ian; and the people of Israel cried for help to the LORD.
rsv@Judges:6:7 @ When the people of Israel cried to the LORD on account of the Mid'ianites,
rsv@Judges:6:11 @ Now the angel of the LORD came and sat under the oak at Ophrah, which belonged to Jo'ash the Abiez'rite, as his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press, to hide it from the Mid'ianites.
rsv@Judges:6:12 @ And the angel of the LORD appeared to him and said to him, "The LORD is with you, you mighty man of valor."
rsv@Judges:6:13 @ And Gideon said to him, "Pray, sir, if the LORD is with us, why then has all this befallen us? And where are all his wonderful deeds which our fathers recounted to us, saying, `Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt?' But now the LORD has cast us off, and given us into the hand of Mid'ian."
rsv@Judges:6:14 @ And the LORD turned to him and said, "Go in this might of yours and deliver Israel from the hand of Mid'ian; do not I send you?"
rsv@Judges:6:15 @ And he said to him, "Pray, Lord, how can I deliver Israel? Behold, my clan is the weakest in Manas'seh, and I am the least in my family."
rsv@Judges:6:16 @ And the LORD said to him, "But I will be with you, and you shall smite the Mid'ianites as one man."
rsv@Judges:6:27 @ So Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as the LORD had told him; but because he was too afraid of his family and the men of the town to do it by day, he did it by night.
rsv@Judges:6:33 @ Then all the Mid'ianites and the Amal'ekites and the people of the East came together, and crossing the Jordan they encamped in the Valley of Jezreel.
rsv@Judges:7:1 @ Then Jerubba'al (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him rose early and encamped beside the spring of Harod; and the camp of Mid'ian was north of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.
rsv@Judges:7:2 @ The LORD said to Gideon, "The people with you are too many for me to give the Mid'ianites into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, `My own hand has delivered me.'
rsv@Judges:7:7 @ And the LORD said to Gideon, "With the three hundred men that lapped I will deliver you, and give the Mid'ianites into your hand; and let all the others go every man to his home."
rsv@Judges:7:8 @ So he took the jars of the people from their hands, and their trumpets; and he sent all the rest of Israel every man to his tent, but retained the three hundred men; and the camp of Mid'ian was below him in the valley.
rsv@Judges:7:12 @ And the Mid'ianites and the Amal'ekites and all the people of the East lay along the valley like locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand which is upon the seashore for multitude.
rsv@Judges:7:13 @ When Gideon came, behold, a man was telling a dream to his comrade; and he said, "Behold, I dreamed a dream; and lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Mid'ian, and came to the tent, and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down, so that the tent lay flat."
rsv@Judges:7:14 @ And his comrade answered, "This is no other than the sword of Gideon the son of Jo'ash, a man of Israel; into his hand God has given Mid'ian and all the host."
rsv@Judges:7:15 @ When Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, he worshiped; and he returned to the camp of Israel, and said, "Arise; for the LORD has given the host of Mid'ian into your hand."
rsv@Judges:7:19 @ So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, when they had just set the watch; and they blew the trumpets and smashed the jars that were in their hands.
rsv@Judges:7:23 @ And the men of Israel were called out from Naph'tali and from Asher and from all Manas'seh, and they pursued after Mid'ian.
rsv@Judges:7:24 @ And Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill country of E'phraim, saying, "Come down against the Mid'ianites and seize the waters against them, as far as Beth-bar'ah, and also the Jordan." So all the men of E'phraim were called out, and they seized the waters as far as Beth-bar'ah, and also the Jordan.
rsv@Judges:7:25 @ And they took the two princes of Mid'ian, Oreb and Zeeb; they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the wine press of Zeeb, as they pursued Mid'ian; and they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.
rsv@Judges:8:1 @ And the men of E'phraim said to him, "What is this that you have done to us, not to call us when you went to fight with Mid'ian?" And they upbraided him violently.
rsv@Judges:8:3 @ God has given into your hands the princes of Mid'ian, Oreb and Zeeb; what have I been able to do in comparison with you?" Then their anger against him was abated, when he had said this.
rsv@Judges:8:5 @ So he said to the men of Succoth, "Pray, give loaves of bread to the people who follow me; for they are faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmun'na, the kings of Mid'ian."
rsv@Judges:8:12 @ And Zebah and Zalmun'na fled; and he pursued them and took the two kings of Mid'ian, Zebah and Zalmun'na, and he threw all the army into a panic.
rsv@Judges:8:22 @ Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, "Rule over us, you and your son and your grandson also; for you have delivered us out of the hand of Mid'ian."
rsv@Judges:8:26 @ And the weight of the golden earrings that he requested was one thousand seven hundred shekels of gold; besides the crescents and the pendants and the purple garments worn by the kings of Mid'ian, and besides the collars that were about the necks of their camels.
rsv@Judges:8:27 @ And Gideon made an ephod of it and put it in his city, in Ophrah; and all Israel played the harlot after it there, and it became a snare to Gideon and to his family.
rsv@Judges:8:28 @ So Mid'ian was subdued before the people of Israel, and they lifted up their heads no more. And the land had rest forty years in the days of Gideon.
rsv@Judges:8:34 @ And the people of Israel did not remember the LORD their God, who had rescued them from the hand of all their enemies on every side;
rsv@Judges:8:35 @ and they did not show kindness to the family of Jerubba'al (that is, Gideon) in return for all the good that he had done to Israel.
rsv@Judges:9:1 @ Now Abim'elech the son of Jerubba'al went to Shechem to his mother's kinsmen and said to them and to the whole clan of his mother's family,
rsv@Judges:9:6 @ And all the citizens of Shechem came together, and all Beth-millo, and they went and made Abim'elech king, by the oak of the pillar at Shechem.
rsv@Judges:9:17 @ for my father fought for you, and risked his life, and rescued you from the hand of Mid'ian;
rsv@Judges:9:20 @ but if not, let fire come out from Abim'elech, and devour the citizens of Shechem, and Beth-millo; and let fire come out from the citizens of Shechem, and from Beth-millo, and devour Abim'elech."
rsv@Judges:9:24 @ that the violence done to the seventy sons of Jerubba'al might come and their blood be laid upon Abim'elech their brother, who slew them, and upon the men of Shechem, who strengthened his hands to slay his brothers.
rsv@Judges:9:36 @ And when Ga'al saw the men, he said to Zebul, "Look, men are coming down from the mountain tops!" And Zebul said to him, "You see the shadow of the mountains as if they were men."
rsv@Judges:9:37 @ Ga'al spoke again and said, "Look, men are coming down from the center of the land, and one company is coming from the direction of the Diviners' Oak."
rsv@Judges:9:43 @ He took his men and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the fields; and he looked and saw the men coming out of the city, and he rose against them and slew them.
rsv@Judges:9:53 @ And a certain woman threw an upper millstone upon Abim'elech's head, and crushed his skull.
rsv@Judges:9:56 @ Thus God requited the crime of Abim'elech, which he committed against his father in killing his seventy brothers;
rsv@Judges:10:1 @ After Abim'elech there arose to deliver Israel Tola the son of Pu'ah, son of Dodo, a man of Is'sachar; and he lived at Shamir in the hill country of E'phraim.
rsv@Judges:10:2 @ And he judged Israel twenty-three years. Then he died, and was buried at Shamir.
rsv@Judges:10:9 @ And the Ammonites crossed the Jordan to fight also against Judah and against Benjamin and against the house of E'phraim; so that Israel was sorely distressed.
rsv@Judges:10:16 @ So they put away the foreign gods from among them and served the LORD; and he became indignant over the misery of Israel.
rsv@Judges:10:17 @ Then the Ammonites were called to arms, and they encamped in Gilead; and the people of Israel came together, and they encamped at Mizpah.
rsv@Judges:11:1 @ Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty warrior, but he was the son of a harlot. Gilead was the father of Jephthah.
rsv@Judges:11:11 @ So Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and leader over them; and Jephthah spoke all his words before the LORD at Mizpah.
rsv@Judges:11:13 @ And the king of the Ammonites answered the messengers of Jephthah, "Because Israel on coming from Egypt took away my land, from the Arnon to the Jabbok and to the Jordan; now therefore restore it peaceably."
rsv@Judges:11:29 @ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed through Gilead and Manas'seh, and passed on to Mizpah of Gilead, and from Mizpah of Gilead he passed on to the Ammonites.
rsv@Judges:11:33 @ And he smote them from Aro'er to the neighborhood of Minnith, twenty cities, and as far as Abel-keramim, with a very great slaughter. So the Ammonites were subdued before the people of Israel.
rsv@Judges:11:34 @ Then Jephthah came to his home at Mizpah; and behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances; she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor daughter.
rsv@Judges:11:36 @ And she said to him, "My father, if you have opened your mouth to the LORD, do to me according to what has gone forth from your mouth, now that the LORD has avenged you on your enemies, on the Ammonites."
rsv@Judges:12:4 @ Then Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead and fought with E'phraim; and the men of Gilead smote E'phraim, because they said, "You are fugitives of E'phraim, you Gileadites, in the midst of E'phraim and Manas'seh."
rsv@Judges:12:5 @ And the Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the E'phraimites. And when any of the fugitives of E'phraim said, "Let me go over," the men of Gilead said to him, "Are you an E'phraimite?" When he said, "No,"
rsv@Judges:12:6 @ they said to him, "Then say Shibboleth," and he said, "Sibboleth," for he could not pronounce it right; then they seized him and slew him at the fords of the Jordan. And there fell at that time forty-two thousand of the E'phraimites.
rsv@Judges:14:4 @ His father and mother did not know that it was from the LORD; for he was seeking an occasion against the Philistines. At that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.
rsv@Judges:14:6 @ and the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he tore the lion asunder as one tears a kid; and he had nothing in his hand. But he did not tell his father or his mother what he had done.
rsv@Judges:14:19 @ And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he went down to Ash'kelon and killed thirty men of the town, and took their spoil and gave the festal garments to those who had told the riddle. In hot anger he went back to his father's house.
rsv@Judges:15:3 @ And Samson said to them, "This time I shall be blameless in regard to the Philistines, when I do them mischief."
rsv@Judges:15:14 @ When he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting to meet him; and the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and the ropes which were on his arms became as flax that has caught fire, and his bonds melted off his hands.
rsv@Judges:16:3 @ But Samson lay till midnight, and at midnight he arose and took hold of the doors of the gate of the city and the two posts, and pulled them up, bar and all, and put them on his shoulders and carried them to the top of the hill that is before Hebron.
rsv@Judges:16:6 @ And Deli'lah said to Samson, "Please tell me wherein your great strength lies, and how you might be bound, that one could subdue you."
rsv@Judges:16:10 @ And Deli'lah said to Samson, "Behold, you have mocked me, and told me lies; please tell me how you might be bound."
rsv@Judges:16:13 @ And Deli'lah said to Samson, "Until now you have mocked me, and told me lies; tell me how you might be bound." And he said to her, "If you weave the seven locks of my head with the web and make it tight with the pin, then I shall become weak, and be like any other man."
rsv@Judges:16:17 @ And he told her all his mind, and said to her, "A razor has never come upon my head; for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother's womb. If I be shaved, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man."
rsv@Judges:16:18 @ When Deli'lah saw that he had told her all his mind, she sent and called the lords of the Philistines, saying, "Come up this once, for he has told me all his mind." Then the lords of the Philistines came up to her, and brought the money in their hands.
rsv@Judges:16:21 @ And the Philistines seized him and gouged out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with bronze fetters; and he ground at the mill in the prison.
rsv@Judges:16:29 @ And Samson grasped the two middle pillars upon which the house rested, and he leaned his weight upon them, his right hand on the one and his left hand on the other.
rsv@Judges:16:30 @ And Samson said, "Let me die with the Philistines." Then he bowed with all his might; and the house fell upon the lords and upon all the people that were in it. So the dead whom he slew at his death were more than those whom he had slain during his life.
rsv@Judges:16:31 @ Then his brothers and all his family came down and took him and brought him up and buried him between Zorah and Esh'ta-ol in the tomb of Mano'ah his father. He had judged Israel twenty years.
rsv@Judges:17:1 @ There was a man of the hill country of E'phraim, whose name was Micah.
rsv@Judges:17:4 @ So when he restored the money to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver, and gave it to the silversmith, who made it into a graven image and a molten image; and it was in the house of Micah.
rsv@Judges:17:5 @ And the man Micah had a shrine, and he made an ephod and teraphim, and installed one of his sons, who became his priest.
rsv@Judges:17:7 @ Now there was a young man of Bethlehem in Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he sojourned there.
rsv@Judges:17:8 @ And the man departed from the town of Bethlehem in Judah, to live where he could find a place; and as he journeyed, he came to the hill country of E'phraim to the house of Micah.
rsv@Judges:17:9 @ And Micah said to him, "From where do you come?" And he said to him, "I am a Levite of Bethlehem in Judah, and I am going to sojourn where I may find a place."
rsv@Judges:17:10 @ And Micah said to him, "Stay with me, and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver a year, and a suit of apparel, and your living."
rsv@Judges:17:12 @ And Micah installed the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
rsv@Judges:17:13 @ Then Micah said, "Now I know that the LORD will prosper me, because I have a Levite as priest."
rsv@Judges:18:2 @ So the Danites sent five able men from the whole number of their tribe, from Zorah and from Esh'ta-ol, to spy out the land and to explore it; and they said to them, "Go and explore the land." And they came to the hill country of E'phraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there.
rsv@Judges:18:3 @ When they were by the house of Micah, they recognized the voice of the young Levite; and they turned aside and said to him, "Who brought you here? What are you doing in this place? What is your business here?"
rsv@Judges:18:4 @ And he said to them, "Thus and thus has Micah dealt with me: he has hired me, and I have become his priest."
rsv@Judges:18:13 @ And they passed on from there to the hill country of E'phraim, and came to the house of Micah.
rsv@Judges:18:15 @ And they turned aside thither, and came to the house of the young Levite, at the home of Micah, and asked him of his welfare.
rsv@Judges:18:18 @ And when these went into Micah's house and took the graven image, the ephod, the teraphim, and the molten image, the priest said to them, "What are you doing?"
rsv@Judges:18:19 @ And they said to him, "Keep quiet, put your hand upon your mouth, and come with us, and be to us a father and a priest. Is it better for you to be priest to the house of one man, or to be priest to a tribe and family in Israel?"
rsv@Judges:18:20 @ And the priest's heart was glad; he took the ephod, and the teraphim, and the graven image, and went in the midst of the people.
rsv@Judges:18:22 @ When they were a good way from the home of Micah, the men who were in the houses near Micah's house were called out, and they overtook the Danites.
rsv@Judges:18:23 @ And they shouted to the Danites, who turned round and said to Micah, "What ails you that you come with such a company?"
rsv@Judges:18:26 @ Then the Danites went their way; and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back to his home.
rsv@Judges:18:27 @ And taking what Micah had made, and the priest who belonged to him, the Danites came to La'ish, to a people quiet and unsuspecting, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and burned the city with fire.
rsv@Judges:18:31 @ So they set up Micah's graven image which he made, as long as the house of God was at Shiloh.
rsv@Judges:19:14 @ So they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down on them near Gib'e-ah, which belongs to Benjamin,
rsv@Judges:19:16 @ And behold, an old man was coming from his work in the field at evening; the man was from the hill country of E'phraim, and he was sojourning in Gib'e-ah; the men of the place were Benjaminites.
rsv@Judges:20:1 @ Then all the people of Israel came out, from Dan to Beer-sheba, including the land of Gilead, and the congregation assembled as one man to the LORD at Mizpah.
rsv@Judges:20:3 @ (Now the Benjaminites heard that the people of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) And the people of Israel said, "Tell us, how was this wickedness brought to pass?"
rsv@Judges:20:4 @ And the Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered and said, "I came to Gib'e-ah that belongs to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to spend the night.
rsv@Judges:20:6 @ And I took my concubine and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed abomination and wantonness in Israel.
rsv@Judges:20:10 @ and we will take ten men of a hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred of a thousand, and a thousand of ten thousand, to bring provisions for the people, that when they come they may requite Gib'e-ah of Benjamin, for all the wanton crime which they have committed in Israel."
rsv@Judges:20:12 @ And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, "What wickedness is this that has taken place among you?
rsv@Judges:20:13 @ Now therefore give up the men, the base fellows in Gib'e-ah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel." But the Benjaminites would not listen to the voice of their brethren, the people of Israel.
rsv@Judges:20:14 @ And the Benjaminites came together out of the cities to Gib'e-ah, to go out to battle against the people of Israel.
rsv@Judges:20:15 @ And the Benjaminites mustered out of their cities on that day twenty-six thousand men that drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gib'e-ah, who mustered seven hundred picked men.
rsv@Judges:20:16 @ Among all these were seven hundred picked men who were left-handed; every one could sling a stone at a hair, and not miss.
rsv@Judges:20:17 @ And the men of Israel, apart from Benjamin, mustered four hundred thousand men that drew sword; all these were men of war.![[pBiblx2]](/img/pbiblx2_logo3.png){kind=logo}
