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

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

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

bbe@Exodus:18:9 @And Jethro was glad because the Lord had been good to Israel, freeing them from the power of the Egyptians.

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

bbe@Exodus:19:1 @In the third month after the children of Israel went out from Egypt, on the same day, they came into the waste land of Sinai.

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

bbe@Exodus:19:10 @And the Lord said to Moses, Go to the people and make them holy today and tomorrow, and let their clothing be washed

bbe@Exodus:19:14 @Then Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and made the people holy; and their clothing was washed.

bbe@Exodus:19:18 @And all the mountain of Sinai was smoking, for the Lord had come down on it in fire: and the smoke of it went up like the smoke of a great burning; and all the mountain was shaking.

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

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

bbe@Exodus:22:13 @But if it has been damaged by a beast, and he is able to make this clear, he will not have to make payment for what was damaged.

bbe@Exodus:23:29 @I will not send them all out in one year, for fear that their land may become waste, and the beasts of the field be increased overmuch against you.

bbe@Exodus:23:31 @I will let the limits of your land be from the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the waste land to the river Euphrates: for I will give the people of those lands into your power; and you will send them out before you.

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

bbe@Exodus:24:15 @And Moses went up into the mountain, and it was covered by the cloud.

bbe@Exodus:24:16 @And the glory of the Lord was resting on Mount Sinai, and the cloud was over it for six days; and on the seventh day he said Moses' name out of the cloud.

bbe@Exodus:24:17 @And the glory of the Lord was like a flame on the top of the mountain before the eyes of the children of Israel.

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

bbe@Exodus:29:4 @And let Aaron and his sons come to the door of the Tent of meeting, and there let them be washed with water.

bbe@Exodus:29:14 @But the flesh of the ox and its skin and its waste parts are to be burned outside the circle of the tents, for it is a sin-offering.

bbe@Exodus:29:17 @Then the sheep is to be cut up into its parts, and after washing its legs and its inside parts, you are to put them with the parts and the head,

bbe@Exodus:30:18 @You are to make a brass washing-vessel, with a brass base; and put it between the Tent of meeting and the altar, with water in it;

bbe@Exodus:30:19 @That it may be used by Aaron and his sons for washing their hands and feet;

bbe@Exodus:30:20 @Whenever they go into the Tent of meeting they are to be washed with water, to keep them from death; and whenever they come near to do the work of the altar, or to make an offering by fire to the Lord,

bbe@Exodus:30:21 @Their hands and feet are to be washed. so that they may be safe from death: this is an order to them for ever; to him and his seed from generation to generation.

bbe@Exodus:30:28 @And on the altar of burned offerings with its vessels, and on the washing-vessel and its base.

bbe@Exodus:31:9 @And the altar of burned offerings with all its vessels, and the washing-vessel with its base,

bbe@Exodus:31:18 @And when his talk with Moses on Mount Sinai was ended, he gave him the two stones of the law, two stones on which was the writing made by the finger of God.

bbe@Exodus:32:1 @And when the people saw that Moses was a long time coming down from the mountain, they all came to Aaron and said to him, Come, make us a god to go before us: as for this Moses, who took us up out of the land of Egypt, we have no idea what has become of him.

bbe@Exodus:32:16 @The stones were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, cut on the stones.

bbe@Exodus:33:7 @Now it was Moses' way to put up the Tent of meeting outside the tent-circle, at some distance away; giving it the name of The Tent of meeting. And everyone desiring to make his prayer to the Lord went to the Tent of meeting outside the tent-circle.

bbe@Exodus:33:9 @And whenever Moses went into the Tent, the pillar of cloud came down, and took its place by the door of the Tent, as long as the Lord was talking with Moses.

bbe@Exodus:34:28 @And for forty days and forty nights Moses was there with the Lord, and in that time he had no food or drink. And he put in writing on the stones the words of the agreement, the ten rules of the law.

bbe@Exodus:34:29 @Now when Moses came down from Mount Sinai, with the two stones in his hand, he was not conscious that his face was shining because of his talk with God.

bbe@Exodus:34:35 @And the children of Israel saw that the face of Moses was shining: so Moses put the veil over his face again till he went to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:35:16 @The altar of burned offerings, with its network of brass, its rods, and all its vessels, the washing-vessel and its base;

bbe@Exodus:35:21 @And everyone whose heart was moved, everyone who was guided by the impulse of his spirit, came with his offering for the Lord, for whatever was needed for the Tent of meeting and its work and for the holy robes.

bbe@Exodus:35:24 @Everyone who had silver and brass gave an offering of them to the Lord; and everyone who had hard wood, such as was needed for the work, gave it.

bbe@Exodus:36:2 @Then Moses sent for Bezalel and Oholiab, and for all the wise-hearted men to whom the Lord had given wisdom, even everyone who was moved by the impulse of his heart to come and take part in the work:

bbe@Exodus:36:7 @For the material they had was enough and more than enough for all the work which had to be done.

bbe@Exodus:36:9 @Every curtain was twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide, all of the same measure.

bbe@Exodus:36:13 @And they made fifty hooks of gold, joining the curtains one to another with the hooks; and so the House was made.

bbe@Exodus:36:15 @Every curtain was thirty cubits long and four cubits wide, all of the same measure.

bbe@Exodus:36:33 @The middle rod was made to go right through the rings of all the boards from one end to the other.

bbe@Exodus:37:14 @The rings were fixed under the frame to take the rods with which the table was to be lifted.

bbe@Exodus:37:24 @A talent of the best gold was used for the making of it and its vessels.

bbe@Exodus:37:25 @And he made the altar for the burning of spices, using the same hard wood; it was square, a cubit long and a cubit wide and two cubits high; the horns made of the same.

bbe@Exodus:38:3 @And brass was used for all the vessels of the altar, the baskets and the spades, the basins and the meat-hooks and the fire-trays; all the vessels he made of brass

bbe@Exodus:38:8 @And he made the washing-vessel of brass on a brass base, using the polished brass looking-glasses given by the women who did work at the doors of the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Exodus:38:13 @And on the east side, the open space was fifty cubits long.

bbe@Exodus:38:18 @And the curtain for the doorway of the open space was of the best linen, with designs of blue and purple and red in needlework; it was twenty cubits long and five cubits high, to go with the hangings round the sides.

bbe@Exodus:38:21 @This is the price of the making of the House, even the House of witness, as it was valued by the word of Moses, for the work of the Levites under the direction of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.

bbe@Exodus:38:23 @And with him was Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; a designer and a trained workman, expert in needlework of blue and purple and red and the best linen.

bbe@Exodus:38:24 @The gold used for all the different work done for the holy place, the gold which was given, was twenty-nine talents, and seven hundred and thirty shekels in weight, by the scale of the holy place.

bbe@Exodus:38:25 @And the silver given by those who were numbered of the people was a hundred talents, and a thousand, seven hundred and seventy-five shekels in weight, by the scale of the holy place.

bbe@Exodus:38:26 @A beka, that is, half a shekel by the holy scale, for everyone who was numbered; there were six hundred and three thousand, five hundred and fifty men of twenty years old and over.

bbe@Exodus:38:27 @Of this silver, a hundred talents was used for making the bases of the pillars of the holy place and of the veil; a talent for every base.

bbe@Exodus:38:28 @And a thousand, seven hundred and seventy-five shekels of silver was used to make the hooks for the pillars, and for plating the tops of the pillars and for making their bands.

bbe@Exodus:38:29 @The brass which was given was seventy talents, two thousand four hundred shekels;

bbe@Exodus:39:5 @And the beautifully worked band which went on it was of the same design and the same material, worked in gold and blue and purple and red and twisted linen-work, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Exodus:39:8 @The priest's bag was designed like the ephod, of the best linen worked with gold and blue and purple and red.

bbe@Exodus:39:9 @It was square and folded in two, as long and as wide as the stretch of a man's hand;

bbe@Exodus:39:10 @And on it they put four lines of stones: in the first line was a carnelian, a chrysolite, and an emerald;

bbe@Exodus:39:14 @There were twelve stones for the twelve tribes of Israel; on every one the name of one of the tribes of Israel was cut, like the cutting of a stamp.

bbe@Exodus:39:22 @The robe which went with the ephod was made all of blue;

bbe@Exodus:39:30 @The plate for the holy crown was made of the best gold, and on it were cut these words, HOLY TO THE LORD.

bbe@Exodus:39:31 @It was fixed to the head-dress by a blue cord, as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

bbe@Exodus:39:32 @So all the work on the House of the Tent of meeting was done; as the Lord had given orders to Moses, so the children of Israel did it.

bbe@Exodus:39:39 @And the brass altar, with its network of brass, and its rods and all its vessels, and the washing-vessel and its base;

bbe@Exodus:40:7 @And let the washing-vessel, with water in it, be put between the Tent of meeting and the altar.

bbe@Exodus:40:11 @And put oil on the washing-vessel and its base, and make them holy.

bbe@Exodus:40:12 @Then let Aaron and his sons come to the door of the Tent of meeting; and after washing them with water,

bbe@Exodus:40:17 @So on the first day of the first month in the second year the House was put up.

bbe@Exodus:40:30 @And between the altar and the Tent of meeting he put the vessel with water in it for washing.

bbe@Exodus:40:31 @In it the hands and feet of Moses and Aaron and his sons were washed,

bbe@Exodus:40:34 @Then the cloud came down covering the Tent of meeting, and the House was full of the glory of the Lord;

bbe@Exodus:40:35 @So that Moses was not able to go into the Tent of meeting, because the cloud was resting on it, and the House was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:40:36 @And whenever the cloud was taken up from the House, the children of Israel went forward on their journey:

bbe@Exodus:40:37 @But while the cloud was there, they made no move till it was taken up.

bbe@Exodus:40:38 @For the cloud of the Lord was resting on the House by day, and at night there was fire in the cloud, before the eyes of all the people of Israel, and so it was through all their journeys.

bbe@Leviticus:1:9 @But its inside parts and its legs are to be washed with water, and it will all be burned on the altar by the priest for a burned offering, an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:1:13 @But the inside parts and the legs are to be washed with water; and the priest will make an offering of all of it, burning it on the altar: it is a burned offering, an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:1:16 @And he is to take away its stomach, with its feathers, and put it down by the east side of the altar, where the burned waste is put:

bbe@Leviticus:4:11 @And the skin of the ox and all its flesh, with its head and its legs and its inside parts and its waste,

bbe@Leviticus:4:12 @All the ox, he is to take away outside the circle of the tents into a clean place where the burned waste is put, and there it is to be burned on wood with fire.

bbe@Leviticus:4:21 @Then let the ox be taken away outside the tent-circle, that it may be burned as the other ox was burned; it is the sin-offering for all the people.

bbe@Leviticus:6:27 @Anyone touching the flesh of it will be holy: and if any of the blood is dropped on any clothing, the thing on which the blood has been dropped is to be washed in a holy place.

bbe@Leviticus:6:28 @But the vessel of earth in which the flesh was cooked is to be broken; or if a brass vessel was used, it is to be rubbed clean and washed out with water.

bbe@Leviticus:7:38 @As they were given by the Lord to Moses on Mount Sinai, on the day when the Lord gave orders to the children of Israel to make their offerings to the Lord, in the waste land of Sinai.

bbe@Leviticus:8:6 @Then Moses took Aaron and his sons; and after washing them with water,

bbe@Leviticus:8:11 @Seven times he put oil on the altar and on all its vessels, and on the washing-basin and its base, to make them holy.

bbe@Leviticus:8:15 @And he put it to death; and Moses took the blood and put it on the horns of the altar and round it with his finger, and made the altar clean, draining out the blood at the base of the altar; so he made it holy, taking away what was unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:8:17 @But the ox, with its skin and its flesh and its waste, was burned with fire outside the tent-circle, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Leviticus:8:21 @And the inside parts and the legs were washed with water and all the sheep was burned by Moses on the altar; it was a burned offering for a sweet smell: it was an offering made by fire to the Lord, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Leviticus:8:26 @And out of the basket of unleavened bread which was before the Lord he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of bread with oil on it, and one thin cake, and put them on the fat and on the right leg:

bbe@Leviticus:8:29 @And Moses took the breast, waving it for a wave offering before the Lord; it was Moses' part of the sheep of the priest's offering, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Leviticus:8:30 @And Moses took some of the holy oil and of the blood which was on the altar and put it on Aaron and on his robes, and on his sons and on his sons' robes; and made Aaron holy, and his robes and his sons and his sons' robes with him.

bbe@Leviticus:9:14 @And the inside parts and the legs, when they had been washed with water, were burned on the burned offering on the altar.

bbe@Leviticus:9:20 @They put the fat on the breasts, and the fat was burned on the altar

bbe@Leviticus:9:23 @And Moses and Aaron went into the Tent of meeting, and came out and gave the people a blessing, and the glory of the Lord was seen by all the people.

bbe@Leviticus:10:16 @And Moses was looking for the goat of the sin-offering, but it was burned; and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron, who were still living, saying,

bbe@Leviticus:10:18 @See, its blood was not taken into the holy place: certainly it was right for you to have taken it as food in the holy place, as I gave orders.

bbe@Leviticus:10:20 @And after hearing this, Moses was no longer angry.

bbe@Leviticus:11:25 @Whoever takes away the dead body of one of them is to have his clothing washed, and will be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:11:28 @Anyone who takes away the dead body of one of these is to have his clothing washed and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:11:40 @And he who makes use of any part of its body for food is to have his clothing washed and be unclean till evening; and anyone taking away its body is to have his clothing washed and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:13:6 @And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; and if the mark is less bright and is not increased on his skin, then let the priest say that he is clean: it is only a skin-mark, and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:34 @And on the seventh day the priest will see the place: and if it is not increased, and does not seem to go deeper than the skin, the priest will say that he is clean: and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:54 @Then the priest will give orders for the thing on which the mark is, to be washed, and to be shut up for seven days more:

bbe@Leviticus:13:55 @And if, after the mark has been washed, the priest sees that the colour of it is not changed and it is not increased, it is to be burned in the fire: the disease is working in it, though the damage may be inside or outside.

bbe@Leviticus:13:56 @And if the priest sees that the mark is less bright after the washing, then let him have it cut out of the clothing or the leather or from the threads of the material:

bbe@Leviticus:13:58 @And the material of the clothing, or anything of skin, which has been washed, if the mark has gone out of it, let it be washed a second time and it will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:14:6 @And he will take the living bird and the wood and the red thread and the hyssop and put them in the blood of the bird which was put to death over flowing water.

bbe@Leviticus:14:8 @And he who is to be made clean will have his clothing washed and his hair cut and have a bath, and he will be clean. And after that he will come back to the tent-circle; but he is to keep outside his tent for seven days.

bbe@Leviticus:14:9 @And on the seventh day he is to have all the hair cut off his head and his chin and over his eyes--all his hair is to be cut off--and he will have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and he will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:14:28 @And the priest will put some of the oil which is in his hand on the point of the ear of the man who is to be made clean and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot, on the place where the blood of the offering for wrongdoing was put;

bbe@Leviticus:14:47 @And anyone who has been sleeping in the house will have to have his clothing washed; and anyone who takes food in that house will have to have his clothing washed.

bbe@Leviticus:15:5 @And anyone touching his bed is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:6 @And he who has been seated on anything on which the unclean man has been seated is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:7 @And anyone touching the flesh of the unclean man is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:8 @And if liquid from the mouth of the unclean man comes on to him who is clean, then he is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:10 @And anyone touching anything which was under him will be unclean till the evening; anyone taking up any of these things is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:11 @And anyone on whom the unclean man puts his hands, without washing them in water, is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:12 @And any vessel of earth which has been touched by the unclean man will have to be broken and any vessel of wood washed.

bbe@Leviticus:15:13 @And when a man who has a flow from his body is made clean from it, he is to take seven days to make himself clean, washing his clothing and bathing his body in flowing water, and then he will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:15:17 @And any clothing or skin on which the seed comes is to be washed with water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:21 @And anyone touching her bed will have to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:22 @And anyone touching anything on which she has been seated will have to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:15:27 @And anyone touching these things will be unclean, and his clothing will have to be washed and his body bathed in water and he will be unclean till evening.

bbe@Leviticus:16:4 @Let him put on the holy linen coat, and the linen trousers on his body, and the linen band round him, and the linen head-dress on his head; for this is holy clothing, and before he puts them on his body is to be washed with water.

bbe@Leviticus:16:10 @But the goat for Azazel is to be placed living before the Lord, for the taking away of sin, that it may be sent away for Azazel into the waste land.

bbe@Leviticus:16:21 @And Aaron, placing his two hands on the head of the living goat, will make a public statement over him of all the evil doings of the children of Israel and all their wrongdoing, in all their sins; and he will put them on the head of the goat and send him away, in the care of a man who will be waiting there, into the waste land

bbe@Leviticus:16:22 @And the goat will take all their sins into a land cut off from men, and he will send the goat away into the waste land.

bbe@Leviticus:16:26 @And the man who takes away the goat for Azazel is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and then he may come back to the tent-circle.

bbe@Leviticus:16:27 @And the ox of the sin-offering and the goat of the sin-offering, whose blood was taken in to make the holy place free from sin, are to be taken away outside the tent-circle and their skins and their flesh and their waste are to be burned with fire.

bbe@Leviticus:16:28 @And the man by whom they are burned is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water, and then he may come back to the tent-circle.

bbe@Leviticus:17:15 @And anyone who takes as food anything which has come to a natural end, or anything which has been put to death by beasts, if he is one of you by birth, or of another nation, will have to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening, and then he will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:17:16 @But if his clothing is not washed and his body bathed, his sin will be on him.

bbe@Leviticus:19:20 @If any man has sex relations with a servant-woman who has given her word to be married to a man, and has not been made free for a price or in any other way, the thing will be looked into; but they will not be put to death because she was not a free woman.

bbe@Leviticus:20:23 @And do not keep the rules of the nations which I am driving out before you; for they did all these things, and for that reason my soul was turned against them.

bbe@Leviticus:22:13 @But if a priest's daughter is a widow, or parted from her husband, and has no child, and has come back to her father's house as when she was a girl, she may take of her father's bread; but no outside person may do so.

bbe@Leviticus:24:10 @And a son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel and had a fight with a man of Israel by the tents;

bbe@Leviticus:24:11 @And the son of the Israelite woman said evil against the holy Name, with curses; and they took him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.

bbe@Leviticus:25:33 @And if a Levite does not give money to get back his property, his house in the town which was exchanged for money will come back to him in the year of Jubilee. For the houses of the towns of the Levites are their property among the children of Israel.

bbe@Leviticus:25:51 @If there is still a long time, he will give back, on account of it, a part of the price which was given for him.

bbe@Leviticus:26:16 @This will I do to you: I will put fear in your hearts, even wasting disease and burning pain, drying up the eyes and making the soul feeble, and you will get no profit from your seed, for your haters will take it for food.

bbe@Leviticus:26:22 @I will let loose the beasts of the field among you, and they will take away your children and send destruction on your cattle, so that your numbers will become small and your roads become waste.

bbe@Leviticus:26:31 @And I will make your towns waste and send destruction on your holy places; I will take no pleasure in the smell of your sweet perfumes;

bbe@Leviticus:26:32 @And I will make your land a waste, a wonder to your haters living in it.

bbe@Leviticus:26:33 @And I will send you out in all directions among the nations, and my sword will be uncovered against you, and your land will be without any living thing, and your towns will be made waste.

bbe@Leviticus:26:34 @Then will the land take pleasure in its Sabbaths while it is waste and you are living in the land of your haters; then will the land have rest.

bbe@Leviticus:26:35 @All the days while it is waste will the land have rest, such rest as it never had in your Sabbaths, when you were living in it.

bbe@Leviticus:26:39 @And those of you who are still living will be wasting away in their sins in the land of your haters; in the sins of their fathers they will be wasting away.

bbe@Leviticus:26:43 @And the land, while she is without them, will keep her Sabbaths; and they will undergo the punishment of their sins, because they were turned away from my decisions and in their souls was hate for my laws.

bbe@Leviticus:27:19 @And if the man who has given the field has a desire to get it back, let him give a fifth more than the price at which it was valued and it will be his.

bbe@Leviticus:27:24 @In the year of Jubilee the field will go back to him from whom he got it, that is, to him whose heritage it was.

bbe@Numbers:1:1 @And the Lord said to Moses in the waste land of Sinai, in the Tent of meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they came out of the land of Egypt,

bbe@Numbers:3:3 @These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests, on whom the holy oil was put, who were marked out as priests.

bbe@Numbers:3:4 @And Nadab and Abihu were put to death before the Lord when they made an offering of strange fire before the Lord, in the waste land of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar did the work of priests before Aaron their father.

bbe@Numbers:3:14 @And the Lord said to Moses in the waste land of Sinai,

bbe@Numbers:3:35 @The chief of the families of Merari was Zuriel, the son of Abihail: their tents are to be placed on the north side of the House.

bbe@Numbers:3:43 @Every first son from a month old and over was numbered by name, and the number came to twenty-two thousand, two hundred and seventy-three.

bbe@Numbers:4:13 @And they are to take away the burned waste from the altar, and put a purple cloth on it;

bbe@Numbers:4:36 @And the number of all these was two thousand, seven hundred and fifty.

bbe@Numbers:5:7 @Let them say openly what they have done; and make payment for the wrong done, with the addition of a fifth part, and give it to him to whom the wrong was done.

bbe@Numbers:5:21 @Then the priest will put the oath of the curse on the woman, and say to her, May the Lord make you a curse and an oath among your people, sending on you wasting of the legs and disease of the stomach;

bbe@Numbers:5:22 @And this water of the curse will go into your body, causing disease of your stomach and wasting of your legs: and the woman will say, So be it.

bbe@Numbers:5:23 @And the priest will put these curses in a book, washing out the writing with the bitter water;

bbe@Numbers:5:27 @And it will be that if the woman has become unclean, sinning against her husband, when she has taken the bitter water it will go into her body, causing disease of the stomach and wasting of the legs, and she will be a curse among her people.

bbe@Numbers:7:10 @And the chiefs gave an offering for the altar on the day when the holy oil was put on it; they made their offering before the altar.

bbe@Numbers:7:12 @And he who made his offering on the first day was Nahshon, the son of Amminadab, of the tribe of Judah:

bbe@Numbers:7:13 @And his offering was one silver plate, a hundred and thirty shekels in weight, one silver basin of seventy shekels, by the scale of the holy place; the two of them full of the best meal mixed with oil for a meal offering;

bbe@Numbers:7:89 @And when Moses went into the Tent of meeting to have talk with him, then the Voice came to his ears from over the cover which was on the ark of witness, from between the two winged ones. And he had talk with him.

bbe@Numbers:8:4 @The support for the lights was of hammered gold work, from its base to its flowers it was of hammered work; from the design which the Lord had given to Moses, he made the support for the lights.

bbe@Numbers:8:7 @And this is how you are to make them clean: let the holy water which takes away sin be put on them, and let the hair all over their bodies be cut off with a sharp blade, and let their clothing be washed and their bodies made clean.

bbe@Numbers:8:21 @And the Levites were made clean from sin, and their clothing was washed, and Aaron gave them for a wave offering before the Lord; and Aaron took away their sin and made them clean.

bbe@Numbers:9:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, in the waste land of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt,

bbe@Numbers:9:5 @So they kept the Passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the waste land of Sinai: as the Lord gave orders to Moses, so the children of Israel did.

bbe@Numbers:9:15 @And on the day when the House was put up, the cloud came down on it, on the Tent of witness; and in the evening there was a light like fire over the House till the morning.

bbe@Numbers:9:16 @And so it was at all times: it was covered by the cloud, and by a light as of fire by night.

bbe@Numbers:9:17 @And whenever the cloud was taken up from over the House, then the children of Israel went journeying on; and in the place where the cloud came to rest, there the children of Israel put up their tents.

bbe@Numbers:9:18 @At the order of the Lord the children of Israel went forward, and at the order of the Lord they put up their tents: as long as the cloud was resting on the House, they did not go away from that place.

bbe@Numbers:9:19 @When the cloud was resting on the House for a long time the children of Israel, waiting for the order of the Lord, did not go on.

bbe@Numbers:9:20 @Sometimes the cloud was resting on the House for two or three days; then, by the order of the Lord, they kept their tents in that place, and when the Lord gave the order they went on

bbe@Numbers:9:21 @And sometimes the cloud was there only from evening to morning; and when the cloud was taken up in the morning they went on their journey again: or if it was resting there by day and by night, whenever the cloud was taken up they went forward.

bbe@Numbers:9:22 @Or if the cloud came to rest on the House for two days or a month or a year without moving, the children of Israel went on waiting there and did not go on; but whenever it was taken up they went forward on their journey.

bbe@Numbers:10:11 @Now in the second year, on the twentieth day of the second month, the cloud was taken up from over the Tent of witness.

bbe@Numbers:10:12 @And the children of Israel went on their journey out of the waste land of Sinai; and the cloud came to rest in the waste land of Paran.

bbe@Numbers:10:14 @First the flag of the children of Judah went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Nahshon, the son of Amminadab.

bbe@Numbers:10:15 @And at the head of the army of the children of Issachar was Nethanel, the son of Zuar.

bbe@Numbers:10:16 @And at the head of the army of the children of Zebulun was Eliab, the son of Helon.

bbe@Numbers:10:17 @Then the House was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, who were responsible for moving the House, went forward.

bbe@Numbers:10:18 @Then the flag of the children of Reuben went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Elizur, the son of Shedeur.

bbe@Numbers:10:19 @And at the head of the army of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel, the son of Zurishaddai.

bbe@Numbers:10:20 @At the head of the army of the children of Gad was Eliasaph, the son of Reuel.

bbe@Numbers:10:22 @Then the flag of the children of Ephraim went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Elishama, the son of Ammihud.

bbe@Numbers:10:23 @At the head of the army of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel, the son of Pedahzur.

bbe@Numbers:10:24 @At the head of the army of the children of Benjamin was Abidan, the son of Gideoni.

bbe@Numbers:10:25 @And the flag of the children of Dan, whose tents were moved last of all, went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Ahiezer, the son of Ammishaddai.

bbe@Numbers:10:26 @At the head of the army of the children of Asher was Pagiel, the son of Ochran.

bbe@Numbers:10:27 @And at the head of the army of the children of Naphtali was Ahira, the son of Enan.

bbe@Numbers:10:28 @This was the order in which the children of Israel were journeying by armies; so they went forward.

bbe@Numbers:10:31 @And he said, Do not go from us; for you will be eyes for us, guiding us to the right places in the waste land to put up our tents.

bbe@Numbers:11:1 @Now the people were saying evil against the Lord; and the Lord, hearing it, was angry and sent fire on them, burning the outer parts of the tent-circle.

bbe@Numbers:11:2 @And the people made an outcry to Moses, and Moses made prayer to the Lord, and the fire was stopped.

bbe@Numbers:11:3 @So that place was named Taberah, because of the fire of the Lord which had been burning among them.

bbe@Numbers:11:6 @But now our soul is wasted away; there is nothing at all: we have nothing but this manna before our eyes.

bbe@Numbers:11:7 @Now the manna was like a seed of grain, like small clear drops.

bbe@Numbers:11:8 @The people went about taking it up from the earth, crushing it between stones or hammering it to powder, and boiling it in pots, and they made cakes of it: its taste was like the taste of cakes cooked with oil.

bbe@Numbers:11:10 @And at the sound of the people weeping, every man at his tent-door, the wrath of the Lord was great, and Moses was very angry.

bbe@Numbers:11:25 @Then the Lord came down in the cloud and had talk with him, and put on the seventy men some of the spirit which was on him: now when the spirit came to rest on them, they were like prophets, but only at that time.

bbe@Numbers:11:28 @Then Joshua, the son of Nun, who had been Moses' servant from the time when he was a child, said, My lord Moses, let them be stopped.

bbe@Numbers:11:32 @And all that day and all night and the day after, the people were taking up the birds; the smallest amount which anyone got was ten homers: and they put them out all round the tents.

bbe@Numbers:11:33 @But while the meat was still between their teeth, before it was tasted, the wrath of the Lord was moved against the people and he sent a great outburst of disease on them.

bbe@Numbers:11:34 @So that place was named Kibroth-hattaavah; because there they put in the earth the bodies of the people who had given way to their desires.

bbe@Numbers:12:1 @Now Miriam and Aaron said evil against Moses, because of the Cushite woman to whom he was married, for he had taken a Cushite woman as his wife.

bbe@Numbers:12:3 @Now the man Moses was more gentle than any other man on earth.

bbe@Numbers:12:10 @And the cloud was moved from over the Tent; and straight away Miriam became a leper, as white as snow: and Aaron, looking at Miriam, saw that she was a leper.

bbe@Numbers:12:12 @Let her not be as one dead, whose flesh is half wasted when he comes out from the body of his mother.

bbe@Numbers:12:15 @So Miriam was shut up outside the tent-circle for seven days: and the people did not go forward on their journey till Miriam had come in again.

bbe@Numbers:12:16 @After that, the people went on from Hazeroth and put up their tents in the waste land of Paran.

bbe@Numbers:13:3 @And Moses sent them from the waste land of Paran as the Lord gave orders, all of them men who were heads of the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:13:20 @And if the land is fertile or poor, and if there is wood in it or not. And be of good heart, and come back with some of the produce of the land. Now it was the time when the first grapes were ready.

bbe@Numbers:13:21 @So they went up and got a view of the land, from the waste land of Zin to Rehob, on the way to Hamath.

bbe@Numbers:13:24 @That place was named the valley of Eshcol because of the grapes which the children of Israel took from there.

bbe@Numbers:13:26 @And they came back to Moses and Aaron and all the children of Israel, to Kadesh in the waste land of Paran; and gave an account to them and to all the people and let them see the produce of the land.

bbe@Numbers:14:2 @And all the children of Israel, crying out against Moses and Aaron, said, If only we had come to our death in the land of Egypt, or even in this waste land!

bbe@Numbers:14:10 @But all the people said they were to be stoned. Then the glory of the Lord was seen in the Tent of meeting, before the eyes of all the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:14:16 @Because the Lord was not able to take this people into the land which he made an oath to give them, he sent destruction on them in the waste land.

bbe@Numbers:14:22 @Because all these men, having seen my glory and the signs which I have done in Egypt and in the waste land, still have put me to the test ten times, and have not given ear to my voice;

bbe@Numbers:14:25 @Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites are in the valley; tomorrow, turning round, go into the waste land by the way to the Red Sea.

bbe@Numbers:14:29 @Your dead bodies will be stretched out in this waste land; and of all your number, all those of twenty years old and over who have been crying out against me,

bbe@Numbers:14:32 @But as for you, your dead bodies will be stretched in this waste land.

bbe@Numbers:14:33 @And your children will be wanderers in the waste land for forty years, undergoing punishment for your false ways, till your bodies become dust in the waste land.

bbe@Numbers:14:35 @I the Lord have said it, and this I will certainly do to all this evil people who have come together against me: in this waste land destruction will come on them, and death will be their fate.

bbe@Numbers:15:25 @So the priest will make the people free from sin, and they will have forgiveness; for it was an error, and they have given their offering made by fire to the Lord, and their sin-offering before the Lord, on account of their error:

bbe@Numbers:15:26 @And all the meeting of the children of Israel, as well as those from other lands living among them, will have forgiveness; for it was an error on the part of the people.

bbe@Numbers:15:28 @And the priest will take away the sin of the person who has done wrong, if the wrong was done unconsciously, and he will have forgiveness.

bbe@Numbers:15:32 @Now while the children of Israel were in the waste land, they saw a man who was getting sticks on the Sabbath day.

bbe@Numbers:15:34 @And they had him shut up, because they had no directions about what was to be done with him.

bbe@Numbers:15:36 @So all the people took him outside the tent-circle and he was stoned to death there, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Numbers:16:13 @Is it not enough that you have taken us from a land flowing with milk and honey, to put us to death in the waste land, but now you are desiring to make yourself a chief over us?

bbe@Numbers:16:15 @Then Moses was very angry, and said to the Lord, Give no attention to their offering: not one of their asses have I taken, or done wrong to any of them.

bbe@Numbers:16:19 @And Korah made all the people come together against them to the door of the Tent of meeting: and the glory of the Lord was seen by all the people.

bbe@Numbers:16:31 @And while these words were on his lips, the earth under them was parted in two;

bbe@Numbers:16:33 @So they and all theirs went down living into the underworld, and the earth was shut over them, and they were cut off from among the meeting of the people.

bbe@Numbers:16:48 @And he took his place between the dead and the living: and the disease was stopped.

bbe@Numbers:17:6 @So Moses gave these orders to the children of Israel, and all their chiefs gave him rods, one for the head of every family, making twelve rods: and Aaron's rod was among them.

bbe@Numbers:17:8 @Now on the day after, Moses went into the Tent of witness; and he saw that Aaron's rod, the rod of the house of Levi, had put out buds, and was covered with buds and flowers and fruit.

bbe@Numbers:18:27 @And this lifted offering is to be put to your credit as if it was grain from the grain-floor and wine from the vines.

bbe@Numbers:19:5 @And the cow is to be burned before him, her skin and her flesh and her blood and her waste are to be burned:

bbe@Numbers:19:7 @And the priest, after washing his clothing and bathing his body in water, may come back to the tent-circle, and will be unclean till evening.

bbe@Numbers:19:8 @And he who does the burning is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

bbe@Numbers:19:10 @And he who takes up the dust of the burned cow is to have his clothing washed with water and be unclean till evening: this is to be a law for ever, for the children of Israel as well as for the man from another country who is living among them

bbe@Numbers:19:13 @Anyone touching the body of a dead man without making himself clean in this way, makes the House of the Lord unclean; and that man will be cut off from Israel: because the water was not put on him, he will be unclean; his unclean condition is unchanged.

bbe@Numbers:19:18 @And a clean person is to take hyssop and put it in the water, shaking it over the tent, and all the vessels, and the people who were there, and over him by whom the bone, or the body of one who has been put to death with the sword, or the body of one who has come to his end by a natural death, or the resting-place was touched.

bbe@Numbers:19:19 @Let the clean person do this to the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he is to make him clean; and after washing his clothing and bathing himself in water, he will be clean in the evening.

bbe@Numbers:19:21 @This is to be a law for them for ever: he who puts the water on the unclean person is to have his clothing washed; and anyone touching the water will be unclean till evening.

bbe@Numbers:20:1 @In the first month all the children of Israel came into the waste land of Zin, and put up their tents in Kadesh; there death came to Miriam, and they put her body to rest in the earth.

bbe@Numbers:20:2 @And there was no water for the people: and they came together against Moses and against Aaron.

bbe@Numbers:20:4 @Why have you taken the Lord's people into this waste, for death to come to us and to our cattle there?

bbe@Numbers:20:13 @These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel went against the Lord, and they saw that he was holy among them.

bbe@Numbers:20:29 @And when the people saw that Aaron was dead, all the children of Israel gave themselves up to weeping for him for thirty days.

bbe@Numbers:21:1 @And it came to the ears of the Canaanite, the king of Arad, living in the South, that Israel was coming by the way of Atharim, and he came out against them and took some of them prisoners.

bbe@Numbers:21:3 @And the Lord, in answer to the voice of Israel, gave the Canaanites up to them; and they put them and their towns completely to destruction: and that place was named Hormah.

bbe@Numbers:21:4 @Then they went on from Mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, going round the land of Edom: and the spirit of the people was overcome with weariness on the way.

bbe@Numbers:21:5 @And crying out against God and against Moses, they said, Why have you taken us out of Egypt to come to our death in the waste land? For there is no bread and no water, and this poor bread is disgusting to us.

bbe@Numbers:21:9 @So Moses made a snake of brass and put it on a rod; and anyone who had a snakebite, after looking on the snake of brass, was made well.

bbe@Numbers:21:11 @And journeying on again from Oboth, they put up their tents in Iye-abarim, in the waste land before Moab looking east.

bbe@Numbers:21:13 @From there they went on and put up their tents on the other side of the Arnon, which is on the waste land at the edge of the land of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the line of division between Moab and the Amorites:

bbe@Numbers:21:18 @The fountain made by the chiefs, made deep by the great ones of the people, with the law-givers' rod, and with their sticks. Then from the waste land they went on to Mattanah:

bbe@Numbers:21:23 @And Sihon would not let Israel go through his land; but got all his people together and went out against Israel into the waste land, as far as Jahaz, to make war on Israel.

bbe@Numbers:21:24 @But Israel overcame him, and took all his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as the country of the children of Ammon, for the country of the children of Ammon was strongly armed.

bbe@Numbers:21:26 @For Heshbon was the town of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who had made war against an earlier king of Moab and taken from him all his land as far as the Arnon.

bbe@Numbers:21:30 @They are wounded with our arrows; destruction has come on Heshbon, even to Dibon; and we have made the land waste as far as Nophah, stretching out to Medeba.

bbe@Numbers:22:3 @And in Moab there was great fear of the people, because their numbers were so great: and the feeling of Moab was bitter against the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:22:4 @Then Moab said to the responsible men of Midian, It is clear that this great people will be the destruction of everything round us, making a meal of us as the ox does of the grass of the field. At that time Balak, the son of Zippor, was king of Moab.

bbe@Numbers:22:22 @But God was moved to wrath because he went: and the angel of the Lord took up a position in the road to keep him from his purpose. Now he was seated on his ass, and his two servants were with him.

bbe@Numbers:22:26 @Then the angel of the Lord went further, stopping in a narrow place where there was no room for turning to the right or to the left.

bbe@Numbers:22:41 @And in the morning Balak took Balaam up to the high places of Baal, and from there he was able to see the outer limits of the people.

bbe@Numbers:23:6 @So he went back to him where he was waiting by his burned offering with all the chiefs of Moab.

bbe@Numbers:23:17 @So he came to him where he was waiting by his burned offering with the chiefs of Moab by his side. And Balak said to him, What has the Lord said?

bbe@Numbers:23:28 @So Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, looking down over the waste land.

bbe@Numbers:24:1 @Now when Balaam saw that it was the Lord's pleasure to give his blessing to Israel, he did not, as at other times, make use of secret arts, but turning his face to the waste land,

bbe@Numbers:24:10 @Then Balak was full of wrath against Balaam, and angrily waving his hands he said to Balaam, I sent for you so that those who are against me might be cursed, but now, see, three times you have given them a blessing.

bbe@Numbers:24:11 @Go back quickly to the place you came from: it was my purpose to give you a place of honour, but now the Lord has kept you back from honour.

bbe@Numbers:24:20 @Then, turning his eyes to Amalek, he went on with his story and said, Amalek was the first of the nations, but his part will be destruction for ever

bbe@Numbers:24:22 @But still the Kenites will be wasted, till Asshur takes you away prisoner.

bbe@Numbers:25:1 @Now when Israel was living in Shittim the people became false to the Lord, doing evil with the daughters of Moab:

bbe@Numbers:25:3 @So Israel had relations with the women of Moab in honour of the Baal of Peor: and the Lord was moved to wrath against Israel.

bbe@Numbers:25:8 @And went after the man of Israel into the tent, driving the spear through the two of them, through the man of Israel and through the stomach of the woman. So the disease was stopped among the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:25:14 @Now the man of Israel who was put to death with the woman of Midian was Zimri, the son of Salu, a chief of one of the families of the Simeonites.

bbe@Numbers:25:15 @And the woman of Midian who was put to death was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was the head of a family in Midian.

bbe@Numbers:25:18 @For they are a danger to you with their false ways, causing sin to come on you in the question of Peor, and because of Cozbi, their sister, the daughter of the chief of Midian, who was put to death at the time of the disease which came on you because of Peor.

bbe@Numbers:26:1 @Now after the disease was over, the Lord said to Moses and Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest,

bbe@Numbers:26:7 @These are the families of the Reubenites: their number was forty-three thousand, seven hundred and thirty.

bbe@Numbers:26:29 @The sons of Manasseh: of Machir, the family of the Machirites: and Machir was the father of Gilead: of Gilead, the family of the Gileadites.

bbe@Numbers:26:46 @And the name of the daughter of Asher was Serah.

bbe@Numbers:26:58 @These are the families of Levi: the family of the Libnites, the family of the Hebronites, the family of the Mahlites, the family of the Mushites, the family of the Korahites. And Kohath was the father of Amram.

bbe@Numbers:26:59 @Amram's wife was Jochebed, the daughter of Levi, whom he had in Egypt: by Amram she had Moses and Aaron and their sister Miriam.

bbe@Numbers:26:64 @But among all these was not one of those numbered by Moses and Aaron the priest when the children of Israel were numbered in the waste land of Sinai.

bbe@Numbers:26:65 @For the Lord had said of them, Death will certainly overtake them in the waste land. And of them all, only Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua, the son of Nun, were still living.

bbe@Numbers:27:3 @Death overtook our father in the waste land; he was not among those who were banded together with Korah against the Lord; but death came to him in his sin; and he had no sons.

bbe@Numbers:27:13 @And when you have seen it, you will be put to rest with your people, as your brother Aaron was:

bbe@Numbers:27:14 @Because in the waste land of Zin, when the people were angry, you and he went against my word and did not keep my name holy before their eyes, at the waters. (These are the waters of Meribah in Kadesh in the waste land of Zin.)

bbe@Numbers:28:6 @It is a regular burned offering, as it was ordered in Mount Sinai, for a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:30:5 @But if her father, hearing of it, makes her take back her word, then the oaths or the undertakings she has given will have no force; and she will have forgiveness from the Lord, because her oath was broken by her father.

bbe@Numbers:30:10 @If she made an oath while she was under the authority of her husband,

bbe@Numbers:31:14 @And Moses was angry with the chiefs of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds who had come back from the war.

bbe@Numbers:31:16 @It was these who, moved by Balaam, were the cause of Israel's sin against the Lord in the question of Peor, because of which disease came on the people of the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:31:24 @And on the seventh day, after washing your clothing, you will be clean, and then you may come into the tent-circle.

bbe@Numbers:31:26 @Get an account of everything which was taken in the war, of man and of beast, you and Eleazar the priest and the heads of families of the people:

bbe@Numbers:31:36 @And the half given as their part to the men who went to the war, was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand, five hundred sheep,

bbe@Numbers:31:37 @Of which the Lord's part was six hundred and seventy-five.

bbe@Numbers:31:38 @The number of oxen was thirty-six thousand, of which the Lord's part was seventy-two;

bbe@Numbers:31:39 @The number of asses was thirty thousand, five hundred, of which the Lord's part was sixty-one.

bbe@Numbers:31:40 @And the number of persons was sixteen thousand, of which the Lord's part was thirty-two persons.

bbe@Numbers:31:43 @(Now the people's half was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand, five hundred sheep,

bbe@Numbers:32:1 @Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a great number of cattle: and when they saw that the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead was a good place for cattle;

bbe@Numbers:32:10 @And at that time the Lord was moved to wrath, and made an oath, saying,

bbe@Numbers:32:13 @Then the Lord was angry with Israel, and he made them wanderers in the waste land for forty years? till all that generation who had done evil in the eyes of the Lord was dead.

bbe@Numbers:32:15 @For if you are turned away from him, he will send them wandering again in the waste land; and you will be the cause of the destruction of all this people.

bbe@Numbers:33:6 @And they went on from Succoth and put up their tents in Etham on the edge of the waste land.

bbe@Numbers:33:8 @And journeying on from before Hahiroth, they went through the sea into the waste land: they went three days' journey through the waste land of Etham and put up their tents in Marah.

bbe@Numbers:33:11 @Then from the Red Sea they went on and put up their tents in the waste land of Sin.

bbe@Numbers:33:12 @And they went on from the waste land of Sin, and put up their tents in Dophkah.

bbe@Numbers:33:14 @And they went on from Alush, and put up their tents in Rephidim, where there was no drinking-water for the people.

bbe@Numbers:33:15 @And they went on from Rephidim, and put up their tents in the waste land of Sinai.

bbe@Numbers:33:16 @And they went on from the waste land of Sinai and put up their tents in Kibroth-hattaavah.

bbe@Numbers:33:36 @And they went on from Ezion-geber, and put up their tents in the waste land of Zin (which is Kadesh).

bbe@Numbers:33:39 @Aaron was a hundred and twenty-three years old at the time of his death in Mount Hor.

bbe@Numbers:33:40 @And news of the coming of the children of Israel came to the king of Arad, the Canaanite, who was living in the South in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Numbers:33:56 @And it will come about that as it was my purpose to do to them, so I will do to you.

bbe@Numbers:34:3 @Then your south quarter will be from the waste land of Zin by the side of Edom, and your limit on the south will be from the east end of the Salt Sea,

bbe@Numbers:35:25 @And let the people keep the man responsible for the death safe from the hands of him who has the right of punishment for blood, and send him back to his safe town where he had gone in flight: there let him be till the death of the high priest who was marked with the holy oil.

bbe@Numbers:35:33 @So do not make the land where you are living unholy: for blood makes the land unholy: and there is no way of making the land free from the blood which has come on it, but only by the death of him who was the cause of it.

bbe@Numbers:36:2 @And said, The Lord gave orders to my lord to make distribution of the land as their heritage to the children of Israel: and my lord was ordered by the Lord to give the heritage of Zelophehad, our brother, to his daughters.

bbe@Numbers:36:12 @And were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, and their property was kept in the tribe of their father's family

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:1 @These are the words which Moses said to all Israel on the far side of Jordan, in the waste land in the Arabah opposite Suph, between Paran on the one side, and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab on the other.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:19 @Then we went on from Horeb, through all that great and cruel waste which you saw, on our way to the hill-country of the Amorites, as the Lord gave us orders; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:24 @And they went up into the hill-country and came to the valley of Eshcol, and saw what was there.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:31 @And in the waste land, where you have seen how the Lord was supporting you, as a man does his son, in all your journeying till you came to this place.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:34 @And the Lord, hearing your words, was angry, and said with an oath,

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:37 @And, in addition, the Lord was angry with me because of you, saying, You yourself will not go into it:

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:40 @But as for you, go back, journeying into the waste land by the way of the Red Sea.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:1 @Then we went back, journeying into the waste land by the way to the Red Sea, as the Lord had said to me: and we were a long time going round Mount Seir.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:7 @For the blessing of the Lord your God has been on you in all the work of your hands: he has knowledge of your wanderings through this great waste: these forty years the Lord your God has been with you, and you have been short of nothing.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:8 @So we went on past our brothers, the children of Esau, living in Seir, by the road through the Arabah, from Elath and Ezion-geber. And turning, we went by the road through the waste land of Moab.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:15 @For the hand of the Lord was against them, working their destruction, till all were dead.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:26 @Then from the waste land of Kedemoth I sent representatives to Sihon, king of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying,

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:36 @From Aroer on the edge of the valley of the Arnon and from the town in the valley as far as Gilead, no town was strong enough to keep us out; the Lord our God gave them all into our hands:

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:2 @And the Lord said to me, Have no fear of him: for I have given him and all his people and his land into your hands; do to him as you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was ruling in Heshbon.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:4 @At that time we took all his towns; there was not one town of the sixty towns, all the country of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan, which we did not take.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:11 @(For Og, king of Bashan, was the last of all the Rephaim; his bed was made of iron; is it not in Rabbah, in the land of the children of Ammon? It was nine cubits long and four cubits wide, measured by the common cubit.)

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:26 @But the Lord was angry with me because of you and would not give ear to my prayer; and the Lord said to me, Let it be enough, say no more about this thing.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:5 @I have been teaching you laws and decisions, as I was ordered to do by the Lord my God, so that you might keep them in the land to which you are going to take it for your heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:11 @And you came near, waiting at the foot of the mountain; and flames of fire went up from the mountain to the heart of heaven, with dark clouds, and all was black as night.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:12 @And the voice of the Lord came to you out of the fire: the sound of his words came to your ears but you saw no form; there was nothing but a voice.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:21 @And the Lord was angry with me because of you, and made an oath that I was not to go over Jordan into the good land which the Lord is giving you for your heritage:

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:43 @The names of the towns were Bezer in the waste land, in the table-land, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan for Manasseh.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:46 @On the far side of Jordan, in the valley facing Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was ruling in Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel overcame after they had come out of Egypt:

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:5 @(I was between the Lord and you at that time, to make clear to you the word of the Lord: because, through fear of the fire, you did not go up the mountain;) saying,

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:23 @And after hearing the voice which came out of the dark while the mountain was burning with fire, all the heads of your tribes and your chiefs came to me,

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:2 @And keep in mind the way by which the Lord your God has taken you through the waste land these forty years, so that he might make low your pride and put you to the test, to see what was in your heart and if you would keep his orders or not.

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:15 @Who was your guide through that great and cruel waste, where there were poison-snakes and scorpions and a dry land without water; who made water come out of the hard rock for you;

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:16 @Who gave you manna for your food in the waste land, a food which your fathers had never seen; so that your pride might be broken and your hearts tested for your good in the end;

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:7 @Keep well in mind how you made the Lord your God angry in the waste land; from the day when you went out of Egypt till you came to this place, you have gone against the orders of the Lord.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:9 @When I had gone up into the mountain to be given the stones on which was recorded the agreement which the Lord made with you, I was on the mountain for forty days and forty nights without taking food or drinking water.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:15 @So turning round I came down from the mountain, and the mountain was burning with fire; and the two stones of the agreement were in my hands.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:19 @For I was full of fear because of the wrath of the Lord which was burning against you, with your destruction in view. But again the Lord's ear was open to my prayer.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:21 @And I took your sin, the image which you had made, and put it in the fire and had it hammered and crushed very small till it was only dust: and the dust I put in the stream flowing down from the mountain.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:28 @Or it may be said in the land from which you have taken them, Because the Lord was not able to take them into the land which he said he would give them, and because of his hate for them, he has taken them out to put them to death in the waste land.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:6 @(And the children of Israel went on from Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah: there death came to Aaron and he was put to rest in the earth; and Eleazar, his son, took his place as priest.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:10 @And I was in the mountain, as at the first time, for forty days and forty nights; and again the ears of the Lord were open to my prayer, and he did not send destruction on you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:5 @And what he did for you in the waste land, till you came to this place;

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:6 @And what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben; when they went down into the open mouth of the earth, with their families and their tents and every living thing which was theirs, before the eyes of all Israel:

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:24 @Every place where you put your foot will be yours: from the waste land and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates as far as the Great Sea, will be the limits of your land.

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:10 @Let him be stoned with stones till he is dead; because it was his purpose to make you false to the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt, out of the prison-house.

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:16 @And take all the goods into the middle of its open space, burning the town and all its property with fire as an offering to the Lord your God; it is to be a waste for ever; there is to be no more building there.

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:6 @For if not, he who has the right of punishment may go running after the taker of life in the heat of his wrath, and overtake him because the way is long, and give him a death-blow; though it is not right for him to be put to death because he was not moved by hate.

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:14 @Your neighbour's landmark, which was put in its place by the men of old times, is not to be moved or taken away in the land of your heritage which the Lord your God is giving you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:19 @Then do to him what it was his purpose to do to his brother: and so put away the evil from among you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:19 @If in war a town is shut in by your armies for a long time, do not let its trees be cut down and made waste; for their fruit will be your food; are the trees of the countryside men for you to take up arms against them?

bbe@Deuteronomy:21:6 @And all the responsible men of that town which is nearest to the dead man, washing their hands over the cow whose neck was broken in the valley,

bbe@Deuteronomy:21:13 @And let her take off the dress in which she was made prisoner and go on living in your house and weeping for her father and mother for a full month: and after that you may go in to her and be her husband and she will be your wife.

bbe@Deuteronomy:21:14 @But if you have no delight in her, you are to let her go wherever she will; you may not take a price for her as if she was your property, for you have made use of her for your pleasure

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:14 @And says evil things about her and gives her a bad name, saying, I took this woman, and when I had connection with her it was clear to me that she was not a virgin:

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:15 @Then let the girl's father and mother put before the responsible men of the town, in the public place, signs that the girl was a virgin:

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:24 @Then you are to take the two of them to the doorway of the town, and have them stoned to death; the young virgin, because she gave no cry for help, though it was in the town, and the man, because he has put shame on his neighbour's wife: so you are to put away evil from among you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:27 @For he came across her in the open country, and there was no one to come to the help of the virgin in answer to her cry.

bbe@Deuteronomy:24:3 @And if the second husband has no love for her and, giving her a statement in writing, sends her away; or if death comes to the second husband to whom she was married;

bbe@Deuteronomy:25:18 @How, meeting you on the way, he made an attack on you when you were tired and without strength, cutting off all the feeble ones at the end of your line; and the fear of God was not in him.

bbe@Deuteronomy:26:5 @And these are the words which you will say before the Lord your God: My father was a wandering Aramaean, and he went down with a small number of people into Egypt; there he became a great and strong nation:

bbe@Deuteronomy:26:7 @And our cry went up to the Lord, the God of our fathers, and the Lord's ear was open to the voice of our cry, and his eyes took note of our grief and the crushing weight of our work:

bbe@Deuteronomy:26:14 @No part of these things has been used for food in a time of weeping, or put away when I was unclean, or given for the dead: I have given ear to the voice of the Lord my God, and have done all you have given me orders to do.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:22 @The Lord will send wasting disease, and burning pain, and flaming heat against you, keeping back the rain till your land is waste and dead; so will it be till your destruction is complete.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:28 @He will make your minds diseased, and your eyes blind, and your hearts wasted with fear:

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:32 @Your sons and your daughters will be given to another people, and your eyes will be wasted away with looking and weeping for them all the day: and you will have no power to do anything.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:65 @And even among these nations there will be no peace for you, and no rest for your feet: but the Lord will give you there a shaking heart and wasting eyes and weariness of soul:

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:67 @In the morning you will say, If only it was evening! And at evening you will say, If only morning would come! Because of the fear in your hearts and the things which your eyes will see.

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:1 @These are the words of the agreement which Moses was ordered by the Lord to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, in addition to the agreement which he made with them in Horeb.

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:5 @For forty years I have been your guide through the waste land: your clothing has not become old on your backs, or your shoes on your feet.

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:23 @And that all the land is a salt and smoking waste, not planted or giving fruit or clothed with grass, but wasted like Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, on which the Lord sent destruction in the heat of his wrath:

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:27 @And so the wrath of the Lord was moved against this land, to send on it all the curse recorded in this book:

bbe@Deuteronomy:31:15 @And the Lord was seen in the Tent in a pillar of cloud resting by the door of the Tent.

bbe@Deuteronomy:31:24 @Now after writing all the words of this law in a book till the record of them was complete,

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:10 @He came to him in the waste land, in the unpeopled waste of sand: putting his arms round him and caring for him, he kept him as the light of his eye.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:12 @So the Lord only was his guide, no other god was with him.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:13 @He put him on the high places of the earth, his food was the increase of the field; honey he gave him out of the rock and oil out of the hard rock;

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:15 @But Jeshurun became fat and would not be controlled: you have become fat, you are thick and full of food: then he was untrue to the God who made him, giving no honour to the Rock of his salvation.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:16 @The honour which was his they gave to strange gods; by their disgusting ways he was moved to wrath.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:24 @They will be wasted from need of food, and overcome by burning heat and bitter destruction; and the teeth of beasts I will send on them, with the poison of the worms of the dust.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:29 @If only they were wise, if only this was clear to them, and they would give thought to their future!

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:50 @And let death come to you on the mountain where you are going, and be put to rest with your people; as death came to Aaron, your brother, on Mount Hor, where he was put to rest with his people:

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:51 @Because of your sin against me before the children of Israel at the waters of Meribath Kadesh in the waste land of Zin; because you did not keep my name holy among the children of Israel.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:2 @He said, The Lord came from Sinai, dawning on them from Seir; shining out from Mount Paran, coming from Meribath Kadesh: from his right hand went flames of fire: his wrath made waste the peoples.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:5 @And there was a king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the tribes of Israel came together.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:16 @The good things of the earth and all its wealth, the good pleasure of him who was seen in the burning tree: may they come on the head of Joseph, on the head of him who was prince among his brothers.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:21 @He kept for himself the first part, for his was the ruler's right: he put in force the righteousness of the Lord, and his decisions for Israel.

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:7 @And Moses at his death was a hundred and twenty years old: his eye had not become clouded, or his natural force become feeble.

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:9 @And Joshua, the son of Nun, was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had put his hands on him: and the children of Israel gave ear to him, and did as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

bbe@Joshua:1:4 @From the waste land and this mountain Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates, and all the land of the Hittites to the Great Sea, in the west, will be your country.

bbe@Joshua:1:5 @While you are living, all will give way before you: as I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will not take away my help from you or give you up.

bbe@Joshua:1:17 @As we gave attention to Moses in all things, so we will give attention to you: and may the Lord your God be with you as he was with Moses.

bbe@Joshua:2:2 @And it was said to the king of Jericho, See, some men have come here tonight from the children of Israel with the purpose of searching out the land.

bbe@Joshua:2:5 @And when it was the time for shutting the doors at dark, they went out; I have no idea where the men went: but if you go after them quickly, you will overtake them.

bbe@Joshua:2:7 @So the men went after them on the road to Jordan as far as the river-crossing: and when they had gone out after them, the door into the town was shut.

bbe@Joshua:2:11 @And because of this news, our hearts became like water, and there was no more spirit in any of us because of you; for the Lord your God is God in heaven on high and here on earth.

bbe@Joshua:2:15 @Then she let them down from the window by a cord, for the house where she was living was on the town wall.

bbe@Joshua:3:7 @And the Lord said to Joshua, From now on I will give you glory in the eyes of all Israel, so that they may see that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with you.

bbe@Joshua:5:1 @Now when the news came to all the kings of the Amorites on the west side of Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites living by the sea, how the Lord had made the waters of Jordan dry before the children of Israel, till they had gone across, their hearts became like water, and there was no more spirit in them, because of the children of Israel.

bbe@Joshua:5:4 @And this is the reason why Joshua did so: all the males of the people who came out of Egypt, all the fighting-men, had been overtaken by death in the waste land on the way, after they came out of Egypt.

bbe@Joshua:5:5 @All the people who came out had undergone circumcision; but all the people whose birth had taken place in the waste land on their journey from Egypt had not.

bbe@Joshua:5:6 @For the children of Israel were wandering in the waste land for forty years, till all the nation, that is, all the fighting-men, who had come out of Egypt, were dead, because they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord: to whom the Lord said, with an oath, that he would not let them see the land which the Lord had given his word to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

bbe@Joshua:5:9 @And the Lord said to Joshua, Today the shame of Egypt has been rolled away from you. So that place was named Gilgal, to this day.

bbe@Joshua:5:12 @And there was no more manna from the day after they had for their food the produce of the land; the children of Israel had manna no longer, but that year the produce of the land of Canaan was their food

bbe@Joshua:5:13 @Now when Joshua was near Jericho, lifting up his eyes he saw a man in front of him, with his sword uncovered in his hand: and Joshua went up to him and said, Are you for us or against us?

bbe@Joshua:6:1 @(Now Jericho was all shut up because of the children of Israel: there was no going out or coming in.)

bbe@Joshua:6:27 @So the Lord was with Joshua; and news of him went through all the land.

bbe@Joshua:7:2 @Now Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is by the side of Beth-aven, on the east side of Beth-el, and said to them, Go up and make a search through the land. And the men went up and saw how Ai was placed.

bbe@Joshua:7:16 @So Joshua got up early in the morning, and made Israel come before him by their tribes; and the tribe of Judah was taken;

bbe@Joshua:7:17 @Then he made Judah come forward, and the family of the Zerahites was taken; and he made the family of the Zerahites come forward man by man; and Zabdi was taken;

bbe@Joshua:7:18 @Then the house of Zabdi came forward man by man, and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.

bbe@Joshua:7:21 @When I saw among their goods a fair robe of Babylon and two hundred shekels of silver, and a mass of gold, fifty shekels in weight, I was overcome by desire and took them; and they are put away in the earth in my tent, and the silver is under it.

bbe@Joshua:7:26 @And over him they put a great mass of stones, which is there to this day; then the heat of the Lord's wrath was turned away. So that place was named, The Valley of Achor, to this day.

bbe@Joshua:8:14 @Now when the king of Ai saw it, he got up quickly and went out to war against Israel, he and all his people, to the slope going down to the valley; but he had no idea that a secret force was waiting at the back of the town.

bbe@Joshua:8:15 @Then Joshua and all Israel, acting as if they were overcome before them, went in flight by way of the waste land.

bbe@Joshua:8:17 @There was not a man in Ai and Beth-el who did not go out after Israel; and the town was open and unwatched while they went after Israel.

bbe@Joshua:8:20 @Then the men of Ai, looking back, saw the smoke of the town going up to heaven, and were unable to go this way or that: and the people who had gone in flight to the waste land were turned back on those who were coming after them.

bbe@Joshua:8:24 @Then, after the destruction of all the people of Ai in the field and in the waste land where they went after them, and when all the people had been put to death without mercy, all Israel went back to Ai, and put to death all who were in it without mercy.

bbe@Joshua:8:26 @For Joshua did not take back his hand with the outstretched spear till the destruction of the people of Ai was complete.

bbe@Joshua:8:28 @So Joshua gave Ai to the flames, and made it a waste mass of stones for ever, as it is to this day.

bbe@Joshua:8:33 @And all Israel, those who were Israelites by birth, as well as the men from other lands living with them, and their responsible men and their overseers and judges, took their places round the ark, in front of the priests, the Levites, whose work it was to take up the ark of the Lord's agreement; half of them were stationed in front of Mount Gerizim and half in front of Mount Ebal, in agreement with the orders for the blessing of the children of Israel which Moses, the servant of the Lord, had given.

bbe@Joshua:9:5 @And put old stitched-up shoes on their feet, and old clothing on their backs; and all the food they had with them was dry and broken up.

bbe@Joshua:10:2 @He was in great fear, because Gibeon was a great town, like one of the king's towns, greater than Ai, and all the men in it were men of war.

bbe@Joshua:10:11 @And in their flight before Israel, on the way down from Beth-horon, the Lord sent down great stones from heaven on them all the way to Azekah, causing their death: those whose death was caused by the stones were more than those whom the children of Israel put to death with the sword.

bbe@Joshua:10:12 @It was on the day when the Lord gave up the Amorites into the hands of the children of Israel that Joshua said to the Lord, before the eyes of Israel, Sun, be at rest over Gibeon; and you, O moon, in the valley of Aijalon.

bbe@Joshua:10:13 @And the sun was at rest and the moon kept its place till the nation had given punishment to their attackers. (Is it not recorded in the book of Jashar?) So the sun kept its place in the middle of the heavens, and was waiting, and did not go down, for the space of a day.

bbe@Joshua:10:14 @And there was no day like that, before it or after it, when the Lord gave ear to the voice of a man; for the Lord was fighting for Israel.

bbe@Joshua:10:17 @And word was given to Joshua that the five kings had been taken in a hole in the rock at Makkedah.

bbe@Joshua:10:30 @And again the Lord gave it and its king into the hands of Israel; and he put it and every person in it to the sword, till their destruction was complete; and he did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.

bbe@Joshua:10:42 @And all these kings and their land Joshua took at the same time, because the Lord, the God of Israel, was fighting for Israel.

bbe@Joshua:11:10 @At that time, Joshua went on to take Hazor and put its king to the sword: for in earlier times Hazor was the chief of all those kingdoms.

bbe@Joshua:11:13 @As for the towns made on hills of earth, not one was burned by Israel but Hazor, which was burned by Joshua.

bbe@Joshua:11:14 @And all the goods taken from these towns, and their cattle, the children of Israel kept for themselves; but every man they put to death without mercy, till their destruction was complete, and there was no one living.

bbe@Joshua:11:15 @As the Lord had given orders to Moses his servant, so Moses gave orders to Joshua, and so Joshua did; every order which the Lord had given to Moses was done.

bbe@Joshua:11:22 @Not one of the Anakim was to be seen in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, some were still living.

bbe@Joshua:12:2 @Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was living in Heshbon, ruling from Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the town in the middle of the valley, and half Gilead, as far as the river Jabbok, the limits of the children of Ammon;

bbe@Joshua:12:4 @And the land of Og, king of Bashan, of the rest of the Rephaim, who was living at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,

bbe@Joshua:12:8 @In the hill-country, and in the lowland, and in the Arabah, and on the mountain slopes, and in the waste land, and in the South; the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

bbe@Joshua:13:1 @Now Joshua was old and full of years; and the Lord said to him, You are old and full of years, and there is still very much land to be taken.

bbe@Joshua:13:10 @And all the towns of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was ruling in Heshbon, to the limits of the children of Ammon;

bbe@Joshua:13:12 @All the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who was ruling in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (he was one of the last of the Rephaim); these did Moses overcome, driving them out of their country.

bbe@Joshua:13:16 @Their limit was from Aroer, on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the town in the middle of the valley, and all the table-land by Medeba;

bbe@Joshua:13:21 @And all the towns of the table-land, and all the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was ruling in Heshbon, whom Moses overcame, together with the chiefs of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the chiefs of Sihon, who were living in the land.

bbe@Joshua:13:23 @And the limit of the children of Reuben was the edge of Jordan. This was the heritage of the children of Reuben by their families, with its towns and its unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:13:25 @And their limit was Jazer, and all the towns of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer before Rabbah;

bbe@Joshua:13:30 @And their limit was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og, king of Bashan, and all Havvoth-Jair, in Bashan, sixty towns;

bbe@Joshua:14:7 @I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh-barnea to make a search through the land; and the account which I gave him was in keeping with his desire.

bbe@Joshua:14:8 @My brothers, however, who went up with me, made the heart of the people like water: but I was true to the Lord with all my heart.

bbe@Joshua:14:10 @And now, as you see, the Lord has kept me safe these forty-five years, from the time when the Lord said this to Moses, while Israel was wandering in the waste land: and now I am eighty-five years old.

bbe@Joshua:14:11 @And still, I am as strong today as I was when Moses sent me out: as my strength was then, so is it now, for war and for all the business of life.

bbe@Joshua:14:14 @So Hebron became the heritage of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, to this day, because with all his heart he was true to the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@Joshua:15:1 @Now the part of the land marked out for the children of Judah by families, went up to the edge of Edom, as far as the waste land of Zin to the south, to the farthest point of it on the south.

bbe@Joshua:15:2 @Their south limit was from the farthest part of the Salt Sea, from the inlet looking to the south:

bbe@Joshua:15:15 @From there he went up against the people of Debir: (now the name of Debir before that was Kiriath-sepher.)

bbe@Joshua:15:61 @In the waste land, Beth-arabah, Middin, and Secacah;

bbe@Joshua:16:1 @And the limit of the land marked out for the children of Joseph went out from Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, in the waste land, going up from Jericho through the hill-country to Beth-el;

bbe@Joshua:16:5 @And the limit of the land of the children of Ephraim by their families was marked out in this way: the limit of their heritage to the east was Ataroth-addar, to Beth-horon the higher;

bbe@Joshua:17:1 @And this was the part marked out for the tribe of Manasseh, because he was the oldest son of Joseph. As for Machir, the oldest son of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war he had Gilead and Bashan.

bbe@Joshua:17:2 @And as for the rest of the children of Manasseh, their heritage was given to them by families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these were the male children of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, by their families.

bbe@Joshua:17:6 @Because the daughters of Manasseh had a heritage among his sons, and the land of Gilead was the property of the other sons of Manasseh.

bbe@Joshua:17:7 @And the limit of Manasseh's land was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem; the line goes on to the right hand, to the people of En-tappuah.

bbe@Joshua:17:8 @The land of Tappuah was the property of Manasseh; but Tappuah on the edge of Manasseh was the property of the children of Ephraim.

bbe@Joshua:17:9 @And the limit goes down to the stream Kanah, to the south of the stream: these towns were Ephraim's among the towns of Manasseh; Manasseh's limit was on the north side of the stream, ending at the sea:

bbe@Joshua:18:1 @And all the meeting of the children of Israel came together at Shiloh and put up the Tent of meeting there: and the land was crushed before them.

bbe@Joshua:18:12 @And their limit on the north was from the Jordan, and the line goes up to the side of Jericho on the north and through the hill-country to the west, ending at the waste land of Beth-aven.

bbe@Joshua:19:1 @And the second heritage came out for the tribe of Simeon by their families; and their heritage was in the middle of the heritage of the children of Judah.

bbe@Joshua:19:9 @The heritage of Simeon was taken out of Judah's stretch of land, for Judah's part was more than they had need of, so the heritage of the children of Simeon was inside their heritage.

bbe@Joshua:19:10 @And the third heritage came out for Zebulun by their families; the limit of their heritage was as far as Sarid;

bbe@Joshua:19:18 @And their limit was to Jezreel and Chesulloth and Shunem

bbe@Joshua:19:25 @And their limit was Helkath and Hali and Beten and Achshaph

bbe@Joshua:19:33 @And their limit was from Heleph, from the oak-tree in Zaanannim, and Adami-hannekeb and Jabneel, as far as Lakkum, ending at Jordan;

bbe@Joshua:19:41 @And the limit of their heritage was Zorah and Eshtaol and Ir-shemesh

bbe@Joshua:19:46 @And on the west was... opposite Joppa.

bbe@Joshua:19:47 @(But the limit of the children of Dan was not wide enough for them; so the children of Dan went up and made war on Leshem and took it, putting it to the sword without mercy, and they took it for their heritage and made a place for themselves there, giving it the name of Leshem-dan, after the name of their father, Dan.)

bbe@Joshua:19:49 @So the distribution of the land and its limits was complete; and the children of Israel gave Joshua, the son of Nun, a heritage among them;

bbe@Joshua:19:51 @These are the heritages which Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of families of the tribes of the children of Israel gave out at Shiloh, by the decision of the Lord, at the door of the Tent of meeting. So the distribution of the land was complete.

bbe@Joshua:20:5 @And if the one who has the right of punishment comes after him, they are not to give the taker of life up to him; because he was the cause of his neighbour's death without designing it and not in hate.

bbe@Joshua:20:8 @And on the east side of Jordan at Jericho, they made selection of Bezer in the waste land, in the table-land, out of the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh.

bbe@Joshua:21:6 @The children of Gershon by their families were given thirteen towns from the tribes of Issachar and Asher and Naphtali and the half-tribe of Manasseh which was in Bashan.

bbe@Joshua:21:40 @All these towns were given to the children of Merari by their families, that is, the rest of the families of the Levites; and their heritage was twelve towns.

bbe@Joshua:22:17 @Was not the sin of Baal-peor great enough, from which we are not clear even to this day, though punishment came on the people of the Lord,

bbe@Joshua:23:1 @Now after a long time, when the Lord had given Israel rest from wars on every side, and Joshua was old and full of years,

bbe@Joshua:23:16 @If the agreement of the Lord your God, which was given to you by his orders, is broken, and you become the servants of other gods and give them worship, then the wrath of the Lord will be burning against you, and you will quickly be cut off from the good land which he has given you.

bbe@Joshua:24:7 @And at their cry, the Lord made it dark between you and the Egyptians, and made the sea go over them, covering them with its waters; your eyes have seen what I did in Egypt: then for a long time you were living in the waste land.

bbe@Joshua:24:26 @And Joshua put these words on record, writing them in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and put it up there under the oak-tree which was in the holy place of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:24:31 @And Israel was true to the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the older men who were still living after Joshua's death, and had seen what the Lord had done for Israel.

bbe@Joshua:24:33 @Then the death of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, took place; and his body was put in the earth in the hill of Phinehas his son, which had been given to him in the hill-country of Ephraim.

bbe@Judges:1:10 @And Caleb went against the Canaanites of Hebron: (now in earlier times Hebron was named Kiriath-arba:) and he put Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai to the sword.

bbe@Judges:1:11 @And from there he went up against the people of Debir. (Now the name of Debir in earlier times was Kiriath-sepher.)

bbe@Judges:1:16 @Now Hobab the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, had come up out of the town of palm-trees, with the children of Judah, into the waste land of Arad; and he went and was living among the Amalekites;

bbe@Judges:1:19 @And the Lord was with Judah; and he took the hill-country for his heritage; but he was unable to make the people of the valley go out, for they had war-carriages of iron.

bbe@Judges:1:22 @And the family of Joseph went up against Beth-el, and the Lord was with them.

bbe@Judges:1:23 @So they sent men to make a search round Beth-el. (Now the name of the town in earlier times was Luz.)

bbe@Judges:1:33 @Naphtali did not take the land of the people of Beth-shemesh or of Beth-anath, driving them out; but he was living among the Canaanites in the land; however, the people of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath were put to forced work.

bbe@Judges:2:14 @And the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the hands of those who violently took their property, and into the hands of their haters all round them, so that they were forced to give way before them.

bbe@Judges:2:15 @Wherever they went out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had taken his oath it would be; and things became very hard for them.

bbe@Judges:2:18 @And whenever the Lord gave them judges, then the Lord was with the judge, and was their saviour from the hands of their haters all the days of the judge; for the Lord was moved by their cries of grief because of those who were cruel to them.

bbe@Judges:2:19 @But whenever the judge was dead, they went back and did more evil than their fathers, going after other gods, to be their servants and their worshippers; giving up nothing of their sins and their hard-hearted ways.

bbe@Judges:2:20 @And the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he said, Because this nation has not been true to my agreement which I made with their fathers, and has not given ear to my voice;

bbe@Judges:3:8 @So the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the hands of Cushan-rishathaim, king of Mesopotamia; and the children of Israel were his servants for eight years.

bbe@Judges:3:17 @And he took the offering to Eglon, king of Moab, who was a very fat man.

bbe@Judges:3:20 @Then Ehud came in to him while he was seated by himself in his summer-house. And Ehud said, I have a word from God for you. And he got up from his seat.

bbe@Judges:3:22 @And the hand-part went in after the blade, and the fat was joined up over the blade; for he did not take the sword out of his stomach. And he went out into the...

bbe@Judges:3:30 @So Moab was broken that day under the hand of Israel. And for eighty years the land had peace.

bbe@Judges:3:31 @And after him came Shamgar, the son of Anath, who put to death six hundred Philistines with an ox-stick; and he was another saviour of Israel.

bbe@Judges:4:1 @And the children of Israel again did evil in the eyes of the Lord when Ehud was dead.

bbe@Judges:4:2 @And the Lord gave them up into the hands of Jabin, king of Canaan, who was ruling in Hazor; the captain of his army was Sisera, who was living in Harosheth of the Gentiles.

bbe@Judges:4:3 @Then the children of Israel made prayer to the Lord; for he had nine hundred iron war-carriages, and for twenty years he was very cruel to the children of Israel.

bbe@Judges:4:4 @Now Deborah, a woman prophet, the wife of Lapidoth, was judge of Israel at that time.

bbe@Judges:4:12 @And word was given to Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor.

bbe@Judges:4:16 @But Barak went after the war-carriages and the army as far as Harosheth of the Gentiles; and all Sisera's army was put to the sword; not a man got away.

bbe@Judges:4:17 @But Sisera went in flight on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin, king of Hazor, and the family of Heber the Kenite.

bbe@Judges:4:21 @Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent-pin and a hammer and went up to him quietly, driving the pin into his head, and it went through his head into the earth, for he was in a deep sleep from weariness; and so he came to his end.

bbe@Judges:4:22 @Then Jael went out, and meeting Barak going after Sisera, said to him, Come, and I will let you see the man you are searching for. So he came into her tent and saw, and there was Sisera stretched out dead with the tent-pin in his head.

bbe@Judges:4:24 @And the power of the children of Israel went on increasing against Jabin, king of Canaan, till he was cut off.

bbe@Judges:5:4 @Lord, when you went out from Seir, moving like an army from the field of Edom, the earth was shaking and the heavens were troubled, and the clouds were dropping water.

bbe@Judges:5:8 @They had no one to make arms, there were no more armed men in the towns; was there a body-cover or a spear to be seen among forty thousand in Israel?

bbe@Judges:5:15 @Your chiefs, Issachar, were with Deborah; and Naphtali was true to Barak; into the valley they went rushing out at his feet. In Reuben there were divisions, and great searchings of heart.

bbe@Judges:5:17 @Gilead was living over Jordan; and Dan was waiting in his ships; Asher kept in his place by the sea's edge, living by his inlets.

bbe@Judges:5:18 @It was the people of Zebulun who put their lives in danger, even to death, with Naphtali on the high places of the field.

bbe@Judges:5:25 @His request was for water, she gave him milk; she put butter before him on a fair plate.

bbe@Judges:5:27 @Bent at her feet he went down, he was stretched out; bent at her feet he went down; where he was bent down, there he went down in death.

bbe@Judges:5:28 @Looking out from the window she gave a cry, the mother of Sisera was crying out through the window, Why is his carriage so long in coming? When will the noise of his wheels be sounding?

bbe@Judges:6:2 @And Midian was stronger than Israel; and because of the Midianites, the children of Israel made holes for themselves in the mountains, and hollows in the rocks, and strong places.

bbe@Judges:6:3 @And whenever Israel's grain was planted, the Midianites and the Amalekites and the people of the east came up against them;

bbe@Judges:6:4 @And put their army in position against them; and they took all the produce of the earth as far as Gaza, till there was no food in Israel, or any sheep or oxen or asses.

bbe@Judges:6:6 @And Israel was in great need because of Midian; and the cry of the children of Israel went up to the Lord.

bbe@Judges:6:11 @Now the angel of the Lord came and took his seat under the oak-tree in Ophrah, in the field of Joash the Abiezrite; and his son Gideon was crushing grain in the place where the grapes were crushed, so that the Midianites might not see it.

bbe@Judges:6:21 @Then the angel of the Lord put out the stick which was in his hand, touching the meat and the cakes with the end of it; and a flame came up out of the rock, burning up the meat and the cakes: and the angel of the Lord was seen no longer.

bbe@Judges:6:22 @Then Gideon was certain that he was the angel of the Lord; and Gideon said, I am in fear, O Lord God! for I have seen the angel of the Lord face to face.

bbe@Judges:6:28 @And the men of the town got up early in the morning, and they saw the altar of Baal broken down, and the holy tree which was by it cut down, and the ox offered on the altar which had been put up there.

bbe@Judges:6:30 @Then the men of the town said to Joash, Make your son come out to be put to death, for pulling down the altar of Baal and cutting down the holy tree which was by it.

bbe@Judges:6:38 @And it was so: for he got up early on the morning after, and twisting the wool in his hands, he got a basin full of water from the dew on the wool.

bbe@Judges:6:40 @And that night God did so; for the wool was dry, and there was dew on all the earth round it.

bbe@Judges:7:6 @Now the number of those who took up the water with their tongues was three hundred; all the rest of the people went down on their knees to the water.

bbe@Judges:7:13 @When Gideon came there, a man was giving his friend an account of his dream, saying, See, I had a dream about a cake of barley bread which, falling into the tents of Midian, came on to the tent, overturning it so that it was stretched out flat on the earth.

bbe@Judges:7:16 @Then separating the three hundred men into three bands, he gave every man a horn, and a vessel in which was a flaming branch

bbe@Judges:7:22 @And the three hundred gave a loud note on their horns, and every man's sword was turned by the Lord against his brother all through the army; and the army went in flight as far as Beth-shittah in the direction of Zeredah, to the edge of Abel-meholah by Tabbath.

bbe@Judges:8:7 @Then Gideon said, Because of this, when the Lord has given Zebah and Zalmunna into my hands, I will have you stretched on a bed of thorns of the waste land and on sharp stems, and have you crushed as grain is crushed on a grain-floor.

bbe@Judges:8:18 @Then he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, Where are the men whom you put to death at Tabor? And they gave answer, As you are, so were they; every one of them was like a king's son

bbe@Judges:8:20 @Then he said to Jether, his oldest son, Up! Put them to death. But the boy did not take out his sword, fearing because he was still a boy.

bbe@Judges:8:26 @The weight of the gold ear-rings which he got from them was one thousand, seven hundred shekels of gold; in addition to the moon-ornaments and jewels and the purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and the chains on their camels' necks.

bbe@Judges:8:28 @So Midian was broken before the children of Israel and the Midianites never got back their strength. And the land had peace for forty years, in the days of Gideon.

bbe@Judges:8:29 @And Jerubbaal, the son of Joash, went back to his house and was living there.

bbe@Judges:8:32 @And Gideon, the son of Joash, came to his end when he was very old, and his body was put in the resting-place of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

bbe@Judges:9:21 @Then Jotham straight away went in flight to Beer, and was living there for fear of his brother Abimelech.

bbe@Judges:9:22 @So Abimelech was chief over Israel for three years.

bbe@Judges:9:30 @Now Zebul, the ruler of the town, hearing what Gaal, the son of Ebed, had said, was moved to wrath.

bbe@Judges:9:43 @And he took his people, separating them into three bands, and was waiting secretly in the field; and when he saw the people coming out of the town, he went up and made an attack on them.

bbe@Judges:9:45 @And all that day Abimelech was fighting against the town; and he took it, and put to death the people who were in it, and had the town pulled down and covered with salt.

bbe@Judges:9:47 @And word was given to Abimelech that all the men of the tower of Shechem were there together.

bbe@Judges:9:51 @But in the middle of the town there was a strong tower, to which all the men and women of the town went in flight and, shutting themselves in, went up to the roof of the tower.

bbe@Judges:9:54 @Then quickly crying out to his body-servant, he said to him, Take out your sword and put an end to me straight away, so that men may not say of me, His death was the work of a woman. So the young man put his sword through him, causing his death.

bbe@Judges:9:55 @And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they went away, every man to his place.

bbe@Judges:9:56 @In this way Abimelech was rewarded by God for the evil he had done to his father in putting his seventy brothers to death;

bbe@Judges:10:1 @Now after Abimelech, Tola, the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, became the saviour of Israel; he was living in Shamir in the hill-country of Ephraim.

bbe@Judges:10:2 @He was judge over Israel for twenty-three years; and at his death his body was put to rest in the earth in Shamir.

bbe@Judges:10:3 @And after him came Jair the Gileadite, who was judge over Israel for twenty-two years.

bbe@Judges:10:5 @And at the death of Jair his body was put to rest in the earth in Kamon.

bbe@Judges:10:7 @And the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the hands of the Philistines and into the hands of the children of Ammon.

bbe@Judges:10:9 @And the children of Ammon went over Jordan, to make war against Judah and Benjamin and the house of Ephraim; and Israel was in great trouble

bbe@Judges:10:16 @So they put away the strange gods from among them, and became the Lord's servants; and his soul was angry because of the sorrows of Israel.

bbe@Judges:11:1 @Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a great man of war; he was the son of a loose woman, and Gilead was his father.

bbe@Judges:11:3 @So Jephthah went in flight from his brothers and was living in the land of Tob, where a number of good-for-nothing men, joining Jephthah, went out with him on his undertakings.

bbe@Judges:11:16 @But when they came up from Egypt, Israel went through the waste land to the Red Sea and came to Kadesh;

bbe@Judges:11:18 @Then he went on through the waste land and round the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and put up their tents on the other side of the Arnon; they did not come inside the limit of Moab, for the Arnon was the limit of Moab.

bbe@Judges:11:22 @All the limit of the Amorites was theirs, from the Arnon as far as the Jabbok and from the waste land even to Jordan.

bbe@Judges:11:26 @While Israel was living in Heshbon and its daughter-towns and in Aroer and its daughter-towns and in all the towns which are by the side of the Arnon, for three hundred years, why did you not get them back at that time?

bbe@Judges:11:34 @Then Jephthah came back to his house in Mizpah, and his daughter came out, meeting him on his way with music and with dances; she was his only child; he had no other sons or daughters.

bbe@Judges:11:35 @And when he saw her he was overcome with grief, and said, Ah! my daughter! I am crushed with sorrow, and it is you who are the chief cause of my trouble; for I have made an oath to the Lord and I may not take it back.

bbe@Judges:12:3 @So when I saw that there was no help to be had from you, I put my life in my hand and went over against the children of Ammon, and the Lord gave them into my hands: why then have you come up to me this day to make war on me?

bbe@Judges:12:6 @Then they said to him, Now say Shibboleth; and he said Sibboleth, and was not able to say it in the right way; then they took him and put him to death at the crossing-places of Jordan; and at that time forty-two thousand Ephraimites were put to death.

bbe@Judges:12:7 @Now Jephthah was judge of Israel for six years. And Jephthah the Gileadite came to his death, and his body was put to rest in his town, Mizpeh of Gilead.

bbe@Judges:12:8 @And after him, Ibzan of Beth-lehem was judge of Israel.

bbe@Judges:12:9 @He had thirty sons, and thirty daughters whom he sent to other places, and he got thirty wives from other places for his sons. And he was judge of Israel for seven years.

bbe@Judges:12:10 @And Ibzan came to his death and his body was put to rest at Beth-lehem.

bbe@Judges:12:11 @And after him, Elon the Zebulonite was judge of Israel; and he was judge of Israel for ten years.

bbe@Judges:12:12 @And Elon the Zebulonite came to his death, and his body was put to rest in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.

bbe@Judges:12:13 @And after him, Abdon, the son of Hillel, the Pirathonite, was judge of Israel

bbe@Judges:12:14 @He had forty sons and thirty sons' sons who went on seventy young asses; and he was judge of Israel for eight years.

bbe@Judges:12:15 @And Abdon, the son of Hillel, came to his death, and his body was put to rest in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill-country of the Amalekites.

bbe@Judges:13:2 @Now there was a certain man of Zorah of the family of the Danites, and his name was Manoah; and his wife had never given birth to a child.

bbe@Judges:13:6 @Then the woman came in, and said to her husband, A man came to me, and his form was like the form of a god, causing great fear; I put no question to him about where he came from, and he did not give me his name;

bbe@Judges:13:9 @And God gave ear to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came to the woman again when she was seated in the field; but her husband Manoah was not with her.

bbe@Judges:13:11 @And Manoah got up and went after his wife, and came up to the man and said to him, Are you the man who was talking to this woman? And he said, I am.

bbe@Judges:13:16 @And the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, Though you keep me I will not take of your food; but if you will make a burned offering, let it be offered to the Lord. For it had not come into Manoah's mind that he was the angel of the Lord.

bbe@Judges:13:21 @But the angel of the Lord was seen no more by Manoah and his wife. Then it was clear to Manoah that he was the angel of the Lord.

bbe@Judges:13:23 @But his wife said to him, If the Lord was purposing our death, he would not have taken our burned offering and our meal offering, or have given us such orders about the child.

bbe@Judges:13:24 @So the woman gave birth to a son, and gave him the name Samson; and he became a man and the blessing of the Lord was on him.

bbe@Judges:14:4 @Now his father and mother had no knowledge that this was the purpose of the Lord, who had the destruction of the Philistines in mind. Now the Philistines at that time were ruling over Israel.

bbe@Judges:14:6 @And the spirit of the Lord came on him with power, and, unarmed as he was, pulling the lion in two as one might do to a young goat, he put him to death; (but he said nothing to his father and mother of what he had done.)

bbe@Judges:14:7 @So he went down and had talk with the woman; and she was pleasing to Samson.

bbe@Judges:14:10 @Then Samson went down to the woman, and made a feast there, as was the way among young men.

bbe@Judges:14:20 @But Samson's wife was given to the friend who had been his best man.

bbe@Judges:15:17 @And having said these words, he let the mouth-bone go out of his hand; so that place was named Ramath-lehi.

bbe@Judges:15:18 @After this, he was in great need of water, and crying out to the Lord, he said, You have given this great salvation by the hand of your servant, and now need of water will be my death; and I will be given into the hands of this people who are without circumcision.

bbe@Judges:15:19 @Then God made a crack in the hollow rock in Lehi and water came out of it; and after drinking, his spirit came back to him and he was strong again; so that place was named En-hakkore; it is in Lehi to this day

bbe@Judges:15:20 @And he was judge of Israel in the days of the Philistines for twenty years.

bbe@Judges:16:2 @And it was said to the Gazites, Samson is here. So they went round, watching for him all day at the doorway of the town, but at night they kept quiet, saying, When daylight comes we will put him to death.

bbe@Judges:16:3 @And Samson was there till the middle of the night; then he got up, and took a grip on the doors of the town, pulling them up, together with their two supports and their locks, and put them on his back and took them up to the top of the hill in front of Hebron.

bbe@Judges:16:4 @Now after this, he was in love with a woman in the valley of Sorek, named Delilah.

bbe@Judges:16:14 @So while he was sleeping she got the seven twists of his hair worked into her cloth and fixed with the pin, and said to him, The Philistines are on you, Samson. Then awaking from his sleep, he got up quickly, pulling up cloth and machine together.

bbe@Judges:16:16 @So day after day she gave him no peace, for ever questioning him till his soul was troubled to death.

bbe@Judges:16:19 @And she made him go to sleep on her knees; and she sent for a man and had his seven twists of hair cut off; and while it was being done he became feeble and his strength went from him.

bbe@Judges:16:20 @Then she said, The Philistines are on you, Samson. And awaking from his sleep, he said, I will go out as at other times, shaking myself free. But he was not conscious that the Lord had gone from him.

bbe@Judges:16:22 @But the growth of his hair was starting again after it had been cut off.

bbe@Judges:16:24 @And when the people saw him, they gave praise to their god; for they said, Our god has given into our hands the one who was fighting against us, who made our country waste, and who put great numbers of us to death.

bbe@Judges:16:27 @Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and about three thousand men and women were on the roof, looking on while Samson made sport.

bbe@Judges:17:1 @Now there was a man of the hill-country of Ephraim named Micah.

bbe@Judges:17:4 @So he gave the silver back to his mother. Then his mother took two hundred shekels of silver and gave them to a metal-worker who made a pictured image and a metal image from them: and it was in the house of Micah.

bbe@Judges:17:6 @In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did as seemed right to him.

bbe@Judges:17:7 @Now there was a young man living in Beth-lehem-judah, of the family of Judah and a Levite, who was not a townsman of the place.

bbe@Judges:17:12 @And Micah gave the position to the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.

bbe@Judges:18:1 @In those days there was no king in Israel, and in those days the Danites were looking for a heritage for themselves, to be their living-place; for up to that time no distribution of land had been made to them among the tribes of Israel.

bbe@Judges:18:3 @When they were near the house of Micah, hearing a voice which was not strange to them, that of the young Levite, they went out of their road to his place, and said to him, How did you come here? and what are you doing in this place? and why are you here?

bbe@Judges:18:17 @Then the five men who had gone to make a search through the land, went in and took the pictured image and the ephod and the family gods and the metal image; and the priest was by the doorway with the six hundred armed men.

bbe@Judges:18:20 @Then the priest's heart was glad, and he took the ephod and the family gods and the pictured image and went with the people.

bbe@Judges:18:28 @And they had no saviour, because it was far from Zidon, and they had no business with Aram; and it was in the valley which is the property of Beth-rehob. And building up the town again they took it for their living-place.

bbe@Judges:18:29 @And they gave the town the name of Dan, after Dan their father, who was the son of Israel: though the town had been named Laish at first.

bbe@Judges:18:30 @(And the children of Dan put up the pictured image for themselves; and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, and his sons were priests for the tribe of the Danites till the day when the ark was taken prisoner.)

bbe@Judges:18:31 @And they put up for themselves the image which Micah had made, and it was there all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh.

bbe@Judges:19:1 @Now in those days, when there was no king in Israel, a certain Levite was living in the inmost parts of the hill-country of Ephraim, and he got for himself a servant-wife from Beth-lehem-judah.

bbe@Judges:19:2 @And his servant-wife was angry with him, and went away from him to her father's house at Beth-lehem-judah, and was there for four months.

bbe@Judges:19:11 @When they got near Jebus the day was far gone; and the servant said to his master, Now let us go from our road into this town of the Jebusites and take our night's rest there.

bbe@Judges:19:16 @Now when it was evening they saw an old man coming back from his work in the fields; he was from the hill-country of Ephraim and was living in Gibeah: but the men of the place were Benjamites.

bbe@Judges:19:21 @So he took them into his house and gave the asses food; and after washing their feet they took food and drink.

bbe@Judges:19:26 @Then at the dawn of day the woman came, and, falling down at the door of the man's house where her master was, was stretched there till it was light.

bbe@Judges:19:28 @And he said to her, Get up and let us be going; but there was no answer; so he took her up and put her on the ass, and went on his way and came to his house.

bbe@Judges:20:5 @And the townsmen of Gibeah came together against me, going round the house on all sides by night; it was their purpose to put me to death, and my servant-wife was violently used by them and is dead.

bbe@Judges:20:27 @And the children of Israel made request to the Lord, (for the ark of the agreement of the Lord was there in those days,

bbe@Judges:20:28 @And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, was in his place before it,) and said, Am I still to go on with the fight against the children of Benjamin my brother, or am I to give it up? And the Lord said, Go on; for tomorrow I will give him into your hands.

bbe@Judges:20:34 @And they came in front of Gibeah, ten thousand of the best men in all Israel, and the fighting became more violent; but the children of Benjamin were not conscious that evil was coming on them.

bbe@Judges:20:38 @Now the sign fixed between the men of Israel and those making the surprise attack was that when they made a pillar of smoke go up from the town,

bbe@Judges:20:42 @So turning their backs on the men of Israel, they went in the direction of the waste land; but the fight overtook them; and those who came out of the town were heading them off and putting them to the sword.

bbe@Judges:20:45 @And turning, they went in flight to the rock of Rimmon in the waste land: and on the highways five thousand of them were cut off by the men of Israel, who, pushing on hard after them to Geba, put to death two thousand more.

bbe@Judges:20:47 @But six hundred men, turning back, went in flight to the rock of Rimmon in the waste land, and were living on the rock of Rimmon for four months.

bbe@Judges:20:48 @And the men of Israel, turning again against the children of Benjamin, put to the sword without mercy all the towns and the cattle and everything there was, burning every town which came into their hands.

bbe@Judges:21:5 @And the children of Israel said, Who is there among all the tribes of Israel, who did not come up to the Lord at the meeting of all Israel? For they had taken a great oath that whoever did not come up to Mizpah to the Lord was to be put to death.

bbe@Judges:21:8 @And they said, Which one of the tribes of Israel did not come up to Mizpah to the Lord? And it was seen that no one had come from Jabesh-gilead to the meeting.

bbe@Judges:21:9 @For when the people were numbered, not one man of the people of Jabesh-gilead was present.

bbe@Judges:21:25 @In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did what seemed right to him.

bbe@Ruth:1:1 @Now there came a time, in the days of the judges, when there was no food in the land. And a certain man went from Beth-lehem-judah, he and his wife and his two sons, to make a living-place in the country of Moab.

bbe@Ruth:1:2 @And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Beth-lehem-judah. And they came into the country of Moab, and were there for some time.

bbe@Ruth:1:4 @And they took two women of Moab as their wives: the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth; and they went on living there for about ten years.

bbe@Ruth:1:5 @And Mahlon and Chilion came to their end; and the woman was without her two sons and her husband.

bbe@Ruth:1:7 @And she went out of the place where she was, and her two daughters-in-law with her; and they went on their way to go back to the land of Judah.

bbe@Ruth:1:18 @And when she saw that Ruth was strong in her purpose to go with her she said no more.

bbe@Ruth:1:19 @So the two of them went on till they came to Beth-lehem. And when they came to Beth-lehem all the town was moved about them, and they said, Is this Naomi?

bbe@Ruth:2:1 @And Naomi had a relation of her husband, a man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.

bbe@Ruth:2:3 @And she went, and came and took up the heads of grain in the field after the cutters; and by chance she went into that part of the field which was the property of Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.

bbe@Ruth:2:5 @Then Boaz said to his servant who was in authority over the cutters, Whose girl is this?

bbe@Ruth:2:6 @And the servant who was in authority over the cutters said, It is a Moabite girl who came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab;

bbe@Ruth:2:14 @And at meal-time Boaz said to her, Come here, and take some of the bread, and put your bit into the wine. And she took her seat among the grain-cutters: and he gave her dry grain, and she took it, and there was more than enough for her meal.

bbe@Ruth:2:19 @And her mother-in-law said to her, Where did you take up the grain today, and where were you working? May a blessing be on him who gave such attention to you. And she gave her mother-in-law an account of where she had been working, and said, The name of the man with whom I was working today is Boaz.

bbe@Ruth:3:2 @And now, is there not Boaz, our relation, with whose young women you were? See, tonight he is separating the grain from the waste in his grain-floor.

bbe@Ruth:3:7 @Now when Boaz had taken meat and drink, and his heart was glad, he went to take his rest at the end of the mass of grain; then she came softly and, uncovering his feet, went to rest.

bbe@Ruth:3:14 @And she took her rest at his feet till the morning: and she got up before it was light enough for one to see another. And he said, Let it not come to anyone's knowledge that the woman came to the grain-floor.

bbe@Ruth:4:1 @And Boaz went up to the public place of the town, and took his seat there: and the near relation of whom he had been talking came by; and Boaz, crying out to him by name, said, Come and be seated here. And he came and was seated.

bbe@Ruth:4:3 @Then he said to the near relation, Naomi, who has come back from the country of Moab, is offering for a price that bit of land which was our brother Elimelech's:

bbe@Ruth:4:4 @And it was in my mind to give you the chance of taking it, with the approval of those seated here and of the responsible men of my people. If you are ready to do what it is right for a relation to do, then do it: but if you will not do it, say so to me now; for there is no one who has the right to do it but you, and after you myself. And he said, I will do it.

bbe@Ruth:4:7 @Now, in earlier times this was the way in Israel when property was taken over by a near relation, or when there was a change of owner. To make the exchange certain one man took off his shoe and gave it to the other; and this was a witness in Israel.

bbe@Ruth:4:9 @Then Boaz said to the responsible men and to all the people, You are witnesses today that I have taken at a price from Naomi all the property which was Elimelech's, and everything which was Chilion's and Mahlon's.

bbe@Ruth:4:10 @And, further, I have taken Ruth, the Moabitess, who was the wife of Mahlon, to be my wife, to keep the name of the dead man living in his heritage, so that his name may not be cut off from among his countrymen, and from the memory of his town: you are witnesses this day

bbe@1Samuel:1:1 @Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim, a Zuphite of the hill-country of Ephraim, named Elkanah; he was the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite:

bbe@1Samuel:1:2 @And he had two wives, one named Hannah and the other Peninnah: and Peninnah was the mother of children, but Hannah had no children.

bbe@1Samuel:1:5 @But to Hannah he gave one part, though Hannah was very dear to him, but the Lord had not let her have children.

bbe@1Samuel:1:9 @So after they had taken food and wine in the guest room, Hannah got up. Now Eli the priest was seated by the pillars of the doorway of the Temple of the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:1:12 @Now while she was a long time in prayer before the Lord, Eli was watching her mouth.

bbe@1Samuel:1:13 @For Hannah's prayer came from her heart, and though her lips were moving she made no sound: so it seemed to Eli that she was overcome with wine.

bbe@1Samuel:1:18 @And she said, May your servant have grace in your eyes. So the woman went away, and took part in the feast, and her face was no longer sad.

bbe@1Samuel:1:23 @And her husband Elkanah said to her, Do whatever seems right to you, but not till you have taken him from the breast; only may the Lord do as he has said. So the woman, waiting there, gave her son milk till he was old enough to be taken from the breast.

bbe@1Samuel:1:24 @Then when she had done so, she took him with her, with a three-year old ox and an ephah of meal and a skin full of wine, and took him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh: now the child was still very young.

bbe@1Samuel:1:26 @And she said, O my lord, as your soul is living, my lord, I am that woman who was making a prayer to the Lord here by your side:

bbe@1Samuel:1:27 @My prayer was for this child; and the Lord has given him to me in answer to my request:

bbe@1Samuel:2:5 @Those who were full are offering themselves as servants for bread; those who were in need are at rest; truly, she who had no children has become the mother of seven; and she who had a family is wasted with sorrow.

bbe@1Samuel:2:13 @And the priests' way with the people was this: when any man made an offering, the priest's servant came while the flesh was being cooked, having in his hand a meat-hook with three teeth;

bbe@1Samuel:2:15 @And more than this, before the fat was burned, the priest's servant would come and say to the man who was making the offering, Give me some of the flesh to be cooked for the priest; he has no taste for meat cooked in water, but would have you give it uncooked.

bbe@1Samuel:2:17 @And the sin of these young men was very great before the Lord; for they gave no honour to the Lord's offerings.

bbe@1Samuel:2:18 @But Samuel did the work of the Lord's house, while he was a child, dressed in a linen ephod.

bbe@1Samuel:2:22 @Now Eli was very old; and he had news from time to time of what his sons were doing to all Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:2:25 @If one man does wrong to another, God will be his judge: but if a man's sin is against the Lord, who will take up his cause? But they gave no attention to the voice of their father, for it was the Lord's purpose to send destruction on them.

bbe@1Samuel:3:1 @Now the young Samuel was the servant of the Lord before Eli. In those days the Lord kept his word secret from men; there was no open vision.

bbe@1Samuel:3:2 @And at that time, when Eli was resting in his place, (now his eyes were becoming clouded so that he was not able to see,)

bbe@1Samuel:3:3 @And the light of God was still burning, while Samuel was sleeping in the Temple of the Lord where the ark of God was,

bbe@1Samuel:3:8 @And for the third time the Lord said Samuel's name. And he got up and went to Eli and said, Here am I; for you certainly said my name. Then it was clear to Eli that the voice which had said the child's name was the Lord's.

bbe@1Samuel:3:15 @And Samuel kept where he was, not moving till the time came for opening the doors of the house of God in the morning. And fear kept him from giving Eli an account of his vision.

bbe@1Samuel:3:19 @And Samuel became older, and the Lord was with him and let not one of his words be without effect.

bbe@1Samuel:3:20 @And it was clear to all Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba that Samuel had been made a prophet of the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:3:21 @And the Lord was seen again in Shiloh; for the Lord gave to Samuel in Shiloh the revelation of his word.

bbe@1Samuel:4:2 @And the Philistines put their forces in order against Israel, and the fighting was hard, and Israel was overcome by the Philistines, who put to the sword about four thousand of their army in the field.

bbe@1Samuel:4:5 @And when the ark of the Lord's agreement came into the tent-circle, all Israel gave a great cry, so that the earth was sounding with it.

bbe@1Samuel:4:8 @Trouble is ours! Who will give us salvation from the hands of these great gods? These are the gods who sent all sorts of blows on the Egyptians in the waste land.

bbe@1Samuel:4:10 @So the Philistines went to the fight, and Israel was overcome, and every man went in flight to his tent: and great was the destruction, for thirty thousand footmen of Israel were put to the sword

bbe@1Samuel:4:11 @And the ark of God was taken; and Hophni and Phinehas, the sons of Eli, were put to the sword.

bbe@1Samuel:4:13 @And when he came, Eli was seated by the wayside watching: and in his heart was fear for the ark of God. And when the man came into the town and gave the news, there was a great outcry.

bbe@1Samuel:4:15 @Now Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes were fixed so that he was not able to see.

bbe@1Samuel:4:18 @And at these words about the ark of God, Eli, falling back off his seat by the side of the doorway into the town, came down on the earth so that his neck was broken and death overtook him, for he was an old man and of great weight. He had been judging Israel for forty years.

bbe@1Samuel:4:19 @And his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was with child and near the time when she would give birth; and when she had the news that the ark of God had been taken and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, her pains came on her suddenly and she gave birth.

bbe@1Samuel:4:20 @And when she was very near death the women who were with her said, Have no fear, for you have given birth to a son. But she made no answer and gave no attention to it.

bbe@1Samuel:4:21 @And she gave the child the name of Ichabod, saying, The glory has gone from Israel: because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.

bbe@1Samuel:5:4 @And when they got up early on the morning after, Dagon had come down to the earth on his face before the ark of the Lord; and his head and his hands were broken off on the doorstep; only the base was in its place.

bbe@1Samuel:5:6 @But the hand of the Lord was hard on the people of Ashdod and he sent disease on them through all the country of Ashdod.

bbe@1Samuel:5:7 @And when the men of Ashdod saw how it was, they said, Let not the ark of the God of Israel be with us, for his hand is hard on us and on Dagon our god.

bbe@1Samuel:5:8 @So they sent for all the lords of the Philistines to come together there, and said, What are we to do with the ark of the God of Israel? And their answer was, Let the ark of the God of Israel be taken away to Gath. So they took the ark of the God of Israel away.

bbe@1Samuel:5:9 @But after they had taken it away, the hand of the Lord was stretched out against the town for its destruction: and the signs of disease came out on all the men of the town, small and great.

bbe@1Samuel:5:11 @So they sent and got together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its place, so that it may not be the cause of death to us and to our people: for there was a great fear of death through all the town; the hand of God was very hard on them there.

bbe@1Samuel:6:1 @Now the ark of the Lord was in the country of the Philistines for seven months.

bbe@1Samuel:6:9 @If it goes by the land of Israel to Beth-shemesh, then this great evil is his work; but if not, then we may be certain that the evil was not his doing, but was the working of chance.

bbe@1Samuel:6:12 @And the cows took the straight way, by the road to Beth-shemesh; they went by the highway, not turning to the right or to the left, and the sound of their voices was clear on the road; and the lords of the Philistines went after them as far as the edge of Beth-shemesh.

bbe@1Samuel:6:19 @But the Lord sent destruction on seventy men of the people of Beth-shemesh for looking into the ark of the Lord; and great was the sorrow of the people for the destruction which the Lord had sent on them.

bbe@1Samuel:7:2 @And the ark was in Kiriath-jearim for a long time, as much as twenty years: and all Israel was searching after the Lord with weeping.

bbe@1Samuel:7:6 @So they came together to Mizpah, and got water, draining it out before the Lord, and they took no food that day, and they said, We have done evil against the Lord. And Samuel was judge of the children of Israel in Mizpah.

bbe@1Samuel:7:10 @And while Samuel was offering the burned offering, the Philistines came near for the attack on Israel; but at the thunder of the Lord's voice that day the Philistines were overcome with fear, and they gave way before Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:7:13 @So the Philistines were overcome, and did not come into the country of Israel again: and all the days of Samuel the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines.

bbe@1Samuel:7:14 @And the towns which the Philistines had taken were given back to Israel, from Ekron to Gath, and all the country round them Israel made free from the power of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.

bbe@1Samuel:7:15 @And Samuel was judge of Israel all the days of his life.

bbe@1Samuel:7:17 @And his base was at Ramah, where his house was; there he was judge of Israel and there he made an altar to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:8:1 @Now when Samuel was old, he made his sons judges over Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:8:2 @The name of his first son was Joel and the name of his second Abijah: they were judges in Beer-sheba.

bbe@1Samuel:8:6 @But Samuel was not pleased when they said to him, Give us a king to be our judge. And Samuel made prayer to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:9:1 @Now there was a man of Benjamin named Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, a man of wealth.

bbe@1Samuel:9:2 @He had a son named Saul, a specially good-looking young man; there was no one better-looking among the children of Israel: he was taller by a head than any other of the people.

bbe@1Samuel:9:5 @And when they had come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to the servant who was with him, Come, let us go back, or my father may give up caring about the asses and be troubled about us.

bbe@1Samuel:9:9 @(In the past in Israel, when a man went to get directions from God, he said, Come let us go to the Seer, for he who now is named Prophet was in those days given the name of Seer.)

bbe@1Samuel:9:10 @Then Saul said to his servant, You have said well; come, let us go. So they went to the town where the man of God was.

bbe@1Samuel:9:25 @And when they had come down from the high place into the town, where a bed was made ready for Saul, he went to rest.

bbe@1Samuel:10:20 @So Samuel made all the tribes of Israel come near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.

bbe@1Samuel:10:21 @Then he made the tribe of Benjamin come near by families, and the family of the Matrites was taken: and from them, Saul, the son of Kish, was taken: but when they went in search of him he was nowhere to be seen.

bbe@1Samuel:10:22 @So they put another question to the Lord, Is the man present here? And the answer of the Lord was, He is keeping himself from view among the goods.

bbe@1Samuel:10:23 @So they went quickly and made him come out; and when he took his place among the people, he was taller by a head than any of the people.

bbe@1Samuel:11:12 @And the people said to Samuel, Who was it who said, Is Saul to be our king? give the men up, so that we may put them to death.

bbe@1Samuel:12:12 @And when you saw that Nahash, the king of the Ammonites, was coming against you, you said to me, No more of this; we will have a king for our ruler: when the Lord your God was your king.

bbe@1Samuel:12:15 @But if you do not give ear to the voice of the Lord, but go against his orders, then the hand of the Lord will be against you and against your king for your destruction, as it was against your fathers.

bbe@1Samuel:12:22 @For the Lord will not give his people up, because of the honour of his name; for it was the Lord's pleasure to make of you a people for himself.

bbe@1Samuel:13:3 @And Jonathan made an attack on the armed force of the Philistines stationed at Gibeah; and news was given to the Philistines that the Hebrews were turned against them. And Saul had a horn sounded through all the land,

bbe@1Samuel:13:4 @And all Israel had the news that Saul had made an attack on the Philistines, and that Israel was bitterly hated by the Philistines. And the people came together after Saul to Gilgal.

bbe@1Samuel:13:7 @And a great number of the people had gone over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead; but Saul was still in Gilgal, and all the people went after him shaking in fear.

bbe@1Samuel:13:10 @And when the burned offering was ended, Samuel came; and Saul went out to see him and to give him a blessing.

bbe@1Samuel:13:13 @And Samuel said to Saul, You have done a foolish thing: you have not kept the rules which the Lord your God gave you; it was the purpose of the Lord to make your authority over Israel safe for ever.

bbe@1Samuel:13:16 @And Saul, with Jonathan his son and the people who were with them, was waiting in Geba in the land of Benjamin: but the tents of the Philistines were in Michmash.

bbe@1Samuel:13:18 @And another went in the direction of Beth-horon: and another went by the hill looking down on the valley of Zeboiim, in the direction of the waste land.

bbe@1Samuel:13:19 @Now there was no iron-worker in all the land of Israel: for the Philistines said, For fear the Hebrews make themselves swords or spears:

bbe@1Samuel:13:22 @So on the day of the fight at Michmash, not a sword or a spear was to be seen in the hands of any of the people with Saul and Jonathan: only Saul and his son Jonathan had them.

bbe@1Samuel:14:1 @Now one day Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who was with him, looking after his arms, Come, let us go over to the Philistine force over there. But he said nothing to his father.

bbe@1Samuel:14:2 @And Saul was still waiting in the farthest part of Geba, under the fruit-tree in Migron: there were about six hundred men with him;

bbe@1Samuel:14:4 @Now between the narrow roads over the mountains by which Jonathan was making his way to the Philistines' forces, there was a sharp overhanging rock on one side, and a sharp rock on the other side: one was named Bozez and the other Seneh.

bbe@1Samuel:14:15 @And there was great fear in the tents and in the field and among all the men of the armed force, and the attackers were shaking with fear; even the earth was moved with a great shaking and there was a fear as from God.

bbe@1Samuel:14:19 @Now while Saul was talking to the priest, the noise in the tents of the Philistines became louder and louder; and Saul said to the priest, Take back your hand.

bbe@1Samuel:14:20 @And Saul and all the people with him came together and went forward to the fight: and every man's sword was turned against the man at his side, and there was a very great noise.

bbe@1Samuel:14:24 @And all the people were with Saul, about twenty thousand men, and the fight was general through all the hill-country of Ephraim; but Saul made a great error that day, by putting the people under an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed who takes food before evening comes and I have given punishment to those who are against me. So the people had not a taste of food.

bbe@1Samuel:14:25 @And there was honey on the face of the field, and all the people came to the honey, the bees having gone from it;

bbe@1Samuel:14:27 @But Jonathan, having no knowledge of the oath his father had put on the people, stretching out the rod which was in his hand, put the end of it in the honey, and put it to his mouth; then his eyes were made bright.

bbe@1Samuel:14:33 @Then it was said to Saul, See, the people are sinning against the Lord, taking the blood with the flesh. And he said to those who gave him the news, Now let a great stone be rolled to me here.

bbe@1Samuel:14:35 @And Saul put up an altar to the Lord: this was the first altar which he put up to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:14:42 @And Saul said, Give your decision between my son Jonathan and me. And Jonathan was taken.

bbe@1Samuel:14:49 @Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan and Ishvi and Malchi-shua; and these are the names of his daughters: the older was named Merab and the younger Michal;

bbe@1Samuel:14:50 @The name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz; the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, brother of Saul's father.

bbe@1Samuel:14:52 @All through the life of Saul there was bitter war against the Philistines; and whenever Saul saw any strong man or any good fighting man, he kept him near himself.

bbe@1Samuel:15:9 @But Saul and the people did not put Agag to death, and they kept the best of the sheep and the oxen and the fat beasts and the lambs, and whatever was good, not desiring to put them to the curse: but everything which was bad and of no use they put to the curse.

bbe@1Samuel:15:11 @It is no longer my pleasure for Saul to be king; for he is turned back from going in my ways, and has not done my orders. And Samuel was very sad, crying to the Lord in prayer all night.

bbe@1Samuel:15:12 @And early in the morning he got up and went to Saul; and word was given to Samuel that Saul had come to Carmel and put up a pillar, and had gone from there down to Gilgal.

bbe@1Samuel:15:13 @And Samuel came to Saul; and Saul said to him, May the blessing of the Lord be with you: I have done what was ordered by the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:15:27 @And when Samuel was turning round to go away, Saul took the skirt of his robe in his hand, and the cloth came away.

bbe@1Samuel:15:33 @And Samuel said, As your sword has made women without children, so now your mother will be without children among women. And Agag was cut up by Samuel, bone from bone, before the Lord in Gilgal.

bbe@1Samuel:15:35 @And Samuel never saw Saul again till the day of his death; but Samuel was sorrowing for Saul: and it was no longer the Lord's pleasure for Saul to be king over Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:16:14 @Now the spirit of the Lord had gone from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord was troubling him.

bbe@1Samuel:17:3 @The Philistines were stationed on the mountain on one side and Israel on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.

bbe@1Samuel:17:4 @And a fighter came out from the tents of the Philistines, named Goliath of Gath; he was more than six cubits tall.

bbe@1Samuel:17:5 @And he had a head-dress of brass on his head, and he was dressed in a coat of metal, the weight of which was five thousand shekels of brass.

bbe@1Samuel:17:6 @His legs were covered with plates of brass and hanging on his back was a javelin of brass.

bbe@1Samuel:17:7 @The stem of his spear was as long as a cloth-worker's rod, and its head was made of six hundred shekels' weight of iron: and one went before him with his body-cover.

bbe@1Samuel:17:12 @Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Beth-lehem-judah named Jesse, who had eight sons; and he was an old man in Saul's day, and far on in years.

bbe@1Samuel:17:14 @And David was the youngest: and the three oldest were with Saul's army.

bbe@1Samuel:17:20 @And David got up early in the morning, and, giving the sheep into the care of a keeper, took the things and went as Jesse had said; and he came to the lines where the carts were, when the army was going out to the fight giving their war-cry.

bbe@1Samuel:17:23 @And while he was talking to them, the fighter, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, came out from the Philistines' lines and said the same words, in David's hearing

bbe@1Samuel:17:28 @And Eliab, his oldest brother, hearing what David said to the men, was moved to wrath against David, and said, Why have you come here? Into whose care have you given that little flock of sheep in the waste land? I have knowledge of your pride and the evil of your heart, you have come down to see the fight.

bbe@1Samuel:17:29 @And David said, What have I done now? was it not only a word?

bbe@1Samuel:17:39 @And David took Saul's sword and put the band round him over the metal coat, and was unable to go forward; for he was not used to them. Then David said to Saul, It is not possible for me to go out with these, for I am not used to them. So David took them off.

bbe@1Samuel:17:40 @Then he took his stick in his hand, and got five smooth stones from the bed of the stream and put them in a bag such as is used by sheep-keepers; and in his hand was a leather band used for sending stones: and so he went in the direction of the Philistine.

bbe@1Samuel:17:42 @And when the Philistine, taking note, saw David, he had a poor opinion of him: for he was only a boy, red-haired and good-looking.

bbe@1Samuel:17:51 @So running up to the Philistine and putting his foot on him, David took his sword out of its cover, and put him to death, cutting off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their fighter was dead, they went in flight.

bbe@1Samuel:17:57 @And when David was coming back after the destruction of the Philistine, Abner took him to Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

bbe@1Samuel:18:1 @Now after David's talk with Saul was ended, the soul of Jonathan was joined with the soul of David, and David became as dear to him as his very life.

bbe@1Samuel:18:5 @And David went wherever Saul sent him, and did wisely: and Saul put him at the head of his men of war, and this was pleasing to all the people as well as to Saul's servants.

bbe@1Samuel:18:8 @And Saul was very angry and this saying was unpleasing to him; and he said, They have given David credit for tens of thousands, and to me for only thousands: what more is there for him but the kingdom?

bbe@1Samuel:18:9 @And from that day Saul was looking with envy on David.

bbe@1Samuel:18:10 @Now on the day after, an evil spirit from God came on Saul with great force and he was acting like a prophet among the men of his house, while David was making music for him, as he did day by day: and Saul had his spear in his hand

bbe@1Samuel:18:12 @And Saul went in fear of David, because the Lord was with David and had gone away from Saul.

bbe@1Samuel:18:14 @And in all his undertakings David did wisely; and the Lord was with him.

bbe@1Samuel:18:15 @And when Saul saw how wisely he did, he was in fear of him.

bbe@1Samuel:18:16 @But David was loved by all Israel and Judah, for he went out and came in before them.

bbe@1Samuel:18:19 @But when the time came to give Merab, Saul's daughter, to David, she was given to Adriel of Meholath.

bbe@1Samuel:18:20 @And Saul's daughter Michal was in love with David: and Saul had word of it and was pleased.

bbe@1Samuel:18:25 @And Saul said, Then say to David, The king has no desire for any bride-price, but only for the private parts of a hundred Philistines so that the king may get the better of his haters. But it was in Saul's mind that David might come to his end by the hands of the Philistines.

bbe@1Samuel:18:26 @And when his servants said these words to David, he was well pleased to be the son-in-law of the king. And the days were still not past.

bbe@1Samuel:18:28 @And it was clear to Saul that the Lord was with David; and he was loved by all Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:19:8 @And there was war again: and David went out fighting the Philistines, causing great destruction among them; and they went in flight before him.

bbe@1Samuel:19:9 @And an evil spirit from the Lord came on Saul, when he was seated in his house with his spear in his hand; and David made music for him.

bbe@1Samuel:19:16 @And when the men came in, there was the image in the bed, with the cushion of goat's hair at its head

bbe@1Samuel:19:19 @And word was given to Saul that David was at Naioth in Ramah.

bbe@1Samuel:19:24 @And he took off his clothing, acting like a prophet before Samuel, and falling down he was stretched out, without his clothing, all that day and all that night. This is the reason for the saying, Is even Saul among the prophets?

bbe@1Samuel:20:9 @And Jonathan said, Do not have such a thought: for if I saw that my father was designing evil against you, would I not give you word of it?

bbe@1Samuel:20:17 @And Jonathan again took an oath to David, because of his love for him: for David was as dear to him as his very soul.

bbe@1Samuel:20:19 @And on the third day it will be specially noted, and you will go to the place where you took cover when the other business was in hand, waiting by the hill over there.

bbe@1Samuel:20:25 @And the king took his seat, as at other times, by the wall: and Jonathan was in front, and Abner was seated by Saul's side, but there was no one in David's seat.

bbe@1Samuel:20:26 @But Saul said nothing that day, for his thought was, Something has taken place making him unclean; it is clear that he is not clean.

bbe@1Samuel:20:27 @And on the day after the new moon, that is, the second day, there was still no one in David's seat: and Saul said to his son Jonathan, Why has the son of Jesse not come to the feast yesterday or today?

bbe@1Samuel:20:30 @Then Saul was moved to wrath against Jonathan, and he said to him, You son of an evil and uncontrolled woman, have I not seen how you have given your love to the son of Jesse, to your shame and the shame of your mother?

bbe@1Samuel:20:33 @And Saul, pointing his spear at him, made an attempt to give him a wound: from which it was clear to Jonathan that his father's purpose was to put David to death.

bbe@1Samuel:20:36 @And he said to the boy, Go and get the arrow I let loose from my bow. And while the boy was running, he sent an arrow past him.

bbe@1Samuel:20:37 @And when the boy came to the place where the arrow was, Jonathan, crying out after the boy, said, Has it not gone past you?

bbe@1Samuel:20:39 @But the boy had no idea what was going on; only Jonathan and David had knowledge of it.

bbe@1Samuel:20:41 @And when the boy had gone, David came from his secret place by the hill, and falling to the earth went down on his face three times: and they gave one another a kiss, weeping together, till David's grief was the greater.

bbe@1Samuel:21:1 @Then David came to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech was full of fear at meeting David, and said to him, Why are you by yourself, having no man with you?

bbe@1Samuel:21:5 @And David in answer said to the priest, Certainly women have been kept from us; and as has been done before when I have gone out the arms of the young men were made holy, even though it was a common journey; how much more today will their arms be made holy.

bbe@1Samuel:21:6 @So the priest gave him the holy bread: there was no other, only the holy bread which had been taken from before the Lord, so that new bread might be put in its place on the day when it was taken away.

bbe@1Samuel:21:7 @Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, kept back before the Lord; his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the strongest of Saul's runners.

bbe@1Samuel:21:13 @So changing his behaviour before them, he made it seem as if he was off his head, hammering on the doors of the town, and letting the water from his mouth go down his chin.

bbe@1Samuel:22:2 @And everyone who was in trouble, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was bitter in soul, came together to him, and he became captain over them: about four hundred men were joined to him.

bbe@1Samuel:22:4 @And he took them to the king of Moab and they went on living with him while David was in his safe place.

bbe@1Samuel:22:6 @And news was given to Saul that David had been seen, and the men who were with him: now Saul was in Gibeah, seated under the tree in the high place, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were in their places before him.

bbe@1Samuel:22:9 @Then Doeg, the Edomite, who was by the side of the servants of Saul, in answer said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub.

bbe@1Samuel:22:22 @And David said to Abiathar, I was certain that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would take the news to Saul: I am responsible for the lives of all your father's family.

bbe@1Samuel:23:5 @So David and his men went to Keilah, and had a fight with the Philistines, and took away their cattle, and put them to the sword with great destruction. So David was the saviour of the people of Keilah.

bbe@1Samuel:23:7 @And news was given to Saul that David had come to Keilah. And Saul said, Now God has given him into my hands; for by going into a walled town with locked doors, he has let himself be shut in.

bbe@1Samuel:23:9 @And it was clear to David that Saul had evil designs against him, and he said to Abiathar the priest, Come here with the ephod.

bbe@1Samuel:23:14 @And David kept in the waste land, in safe places, waiting in the hill-country in the waste land of Ziph. And Saul was searching for him every day, but God did not give him up into his hands.

bbe@1Samuel:23:15 @And David was full of fear, in the knowledge that Saul had come out to take his life; and David was in the waste land of Ziph, in Horesh.

bbe@1Samuel:23:19 @Then the Ziphites came up to Gibeah to see Saul, and said, Is not David living secretly among us in the strong places in Horesh, in the hill of Hachilah to the south of the waste land?

bbe@1Samuel:23:24 @And they went back and came to Ziph before Saul: but David and his men were in the waste land of Maon, in the dry land south of the waste land.

bbe@1Samuel:23:25 @And Saul and his men went in search of him. And David had word of it, so he came down to the rock in the waste land of Maon. And Saul, hearing of this, went after David into the waste land of Maon.

bbe@1Samuel:23:26 @And Saul and his men went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men went on the other: and David's purpose was to get away as quickly as possible, for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men were making a circle round David and his men in order to take them.

bbe@1Samuel:23:28 @So turning back from going after David, Saul went against the Philistines: so that place was named Sela-hammah-lekoth.

bbe@1Samuel:24:1 @Now when Saul came back from fighting the Philistines, news was given him that David was in the waste land of En-gedi.

bbe@1Samuel:24:3 @And on the way he came to a place where sheep were kept, where there was a hollow in the rock; and Saul went in for a private purpose. Now David and his men were in the deepest part of the hollow.

bbe@1Samuel:24:5 @And later, David was full of regret for cutting off Saul's skirt.

bbe@1Samuel:24:6 @And David said to his men, Before the Lord, never let it be said that my hand was lifted up against my lord, the man of the Lord's selection, for the Lord's holy oil has been put on him.

bbe@1Samuel:24:16 @Now when David had said these words to Saul, Saul said, Is this your voice, David, my son? And Saul was overcome with weeping.

bbe@1Samuel:25:1 @And death came to Samuel; and all Israel came together, weeping for him, and put his body in its resting-place in his house at Ramah. Then David went down to the waste land of Maon.

bbe@1Samuel:25:2 @Now there was a man in Maon whose business was in Carmel; he was a great man and had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats: and he was cutting the wool of his sheep in Carmel.

bbe@1Samuel:25:3 @Now this man was named Nabal, and his wife's name was Abigail: she was a woman of good sense and pleasing looks: but the man was cruel and evil in his ways; he was of the family of Caleb.

bbe@1Samuel:25:4 @And David had word in the waste land that Nabal was cutting the wool of his sheep.

bbe@1Samuel:25:14 @But one of the young men said to Nabal's wife Abigail, David sent men from the waste land to say kind words to our master, and he gave them a rough answer.

bbe@1Samuel:25:15 @But these men have been very good to us; they did us no wrong and nothing of ours was touched while we were with them in the fields:

bbe@1Samuel:25:20 @Now while she was going down under cover of the mountain on her ass, David and his men came down against her, and suddenly she came face to face with them.

bbe@1Samuel:25:21 @Now David had said, What was the use of my taking care of this man's goods in the waste land, so that there was no loss of anything which was his? he has only given me back evil for good.

bbe@1Samuel:25:36 @And Abigail went back to Nabal; and he was feasting in his house like a king; and Nabal's heart was full of joy, for he had taken much wine; so she said nothing to him till dawn came.

bbe@1Samuel:25:37 @And in the morning, when the effect of the wine was gone, Nabal's wife gave him an account of all these things, and all the heart went out of him, and he became like stone.

bbe@1Samuel:25:39 @And David, hearing that Nabal was dead, said, May the Lord be praised, who has taken up my cause against Nabal for the shame which he put on me, and has kept back his servant from evil, and has sent on Nabal's head the reward of his evil-doing. And David sent word to Abigail, desiring to take her as his wife.

bbe@1Samuel:25:41 @And she got up, and going down on her face to the earth, said, See, I am ready to be a servant-girl, washing the feet of the servants of my lord.

bbe@1Samuel:26:1 @And the Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah, and said, Is not David waiting secretly near us in the hill of Hachilah, before the waste land?

bbe@1Samuel:26:2 @Then Saul went down to the waste land of Ziph, taking with him three thousand of the best men of Israel, to make search for David in the waste land of Ziph.

bbe@1Samuel:26:3 @And Saul put up his tents on the hill of Hachilah, which is in front of the waste land on the road. But David was in the waste land, and he saw that Saul was coming after him.

bbe@1Samuel:26:4 @And so David sent out watchers, and got word from them that Saul was certainly coming.

bbe@1Samuel:26:5 @And David got up and came to the place where Saul's tents were: and David had a view of the place where Saul was sleeping with Abner, the son of Ner, the captain of his army: and Saul was sleeping inside the ring of carts, and the tents of the people were all round him.

bbe@1Samuel:26:7 @So David and Abishai came down to the army by night: and Saul was sleeping inside the ring of carts with his spear planted in the earth by his head: and Abner and the people were sleeping round him.

bbe@1Samuel:26:16 @What you have done is not good. By the living Lord, death is the right fate for you, because you have not kept watch over your lord, the man on whom the Lord has put the holy oil. Now see, where is the king's spear, and the vessel of water which was by his head?

bbe@1Samuel:26:17 @And Saul, conscious that the voice was David's, said, Is that your voice, David, my son? And David said, It is my voice, O my lord king.

bbe@1Samuel:26:21 @Then Saul said, I have done wrong: come back to me, David my son: I will do you no more wrong, because my life was dear to you today truly, I have been foolish and my error is very great.

bbe@1Samuel:26:24 @And so, as your life was dear to me today, may my life be dear to the Lord, and may he make me free from all my troubles.

bbe@1Samuel:27:7 @And David was living in the land of the Philistines for the space of a year and four months.

bbe@1Samuel:27:9 @And David again and again made attacks on the land till not a man or a woman was still living; and he took away the sheep and the oxen and the asses and the camels and the clothing; and he came back to Achish.

bbe@1Samuel:28:3 @Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel, after weeping for him, had put his body in its last resting-place in Ramah, his town. And Saul had put away from the land all those who had control of spirits and who made use of secret arts.

bbe@1Samuel:28:5 @And when Saul saw the Philistine army he was troubled, and his heart was moved with fear.

bbe@1Samuel:28:12 @And the woman saw that it was Saul, and she gave a loud cry, and said to Saul, Why have you made use of deceit? for you are Saul.

bbe@1Samuel:28:14 @And he said to her, What is his form? And she said, It is an old man coming up covered with a robe. And Saul saw that it was Samuel, and with his face bent down to the earth he gave him honour.

bbe@1Samuel:28:20 @Then Saul went down flat on the earth, and was full of fear because of Samuel's words: and there was no strength in him, for he had taken no food all that day or all that night.

bbe@1Samuel:28:21 @And the woman came to Saul and saw that he was in great trouble, and said to him, See now, your servant has given ear to your words, and I have put my life in danger by doing what you said.

bbe@1Samuel:29:5 @Is this not David, who was named in their songs, when in the dance they said to one another, Saul has put to death thousands, and David tens of thousands?

bbe@1Samuel:30:6 @And David was greatly troubled; for the people were talking of stoning him, because their hearts were bitter, every man sorrowing for his sons and his daughters: but David made himself strong in the Lord his God.

bbe@1Samuel:30:19 @There was no loss of anything, small or great, sons or daughters or goods or anything which they had taken away: David got it all back

bbe@1Samuel:30:24 @Who is going to give any attention to you in this question? for an equal part will be given to him who went to the fight and to him who was waiting by the goods: they are all to have the same.

bbe@1Samuel:31:3 @And the fight was going badly for Saul, and the archers came across him, and he was wounded by the archers.

bbe@1Samuel:31:5 @And when his servant saw that Saul was dead, he did the same, and was united with him in death.

bbe@1Samuel:31:7 @And when the men of Israel across the valley and on the other side of Jordan saw that the army of Israel was in flight and that Saul and his sons were dead, they came out of their towns and went in flight; and the Philistines came and took them for themselves.

bbe@1Samuel:31:10 @His war-dress they put in the house of Astarte; and his body was fixed on the wall of Beth-shan.

bbe@2Samuel:1:10 @So I put my foot on him and gave him his death-blow, because I was certain that he would not go on living after his fall: and I took the crown from his head and the band from his arm, and I have them here for my lord.

bbe@2Samuel:1:22 @From the blood of the dead, from the fat of the strong, the bow of Jonathan was not turned back, the sword of Saul did not come back unused.

bbe@2Samuel:1:26 @I am full of grief for you, my brother Jonathan: very dear have you been to me: your love for me was a wonder, greater than the love of women.

bbe@2Samuel:2:4 @And the men of Judah came there, and with the holy oil made David king over the people of Judah. And word came to David that it was the men of Jabesh-gilead who put Saul's body in its last resting-place.

bbe@2Samuel:2:10 @(Saul's son Ish-bosheth was forty years old when he became king over Israel, and he was ruler for two years.) But Judah was on the side of David.

bbe@2Samuel:2:11 @And the time when David was king in Hebron over the people of Judah was seven years and six months.

bbe@2Samuel:2:16 @And every one got the other by the head, driving his sword into the other's side, so they all went down together: and that place was named the Field of Sides, and it is in Gibeon.

bbe@2Samuel:2:17 @And there was hard fighting that day; and Abner and the men of Israel gave way before the servants of David.

bbe@2Samuel:2:18 @There were three sons of Zeruiah there, Joab and Abishai and Asahel: and Asahel was as quick-footed as a roe of the fields.

bbe@2Samuel:2:24 @But Joab and Abishai went after Abner: and the sun went down when they came to the hill of Ammah, which is to the east of the road through the waste land of Geba.

bbe@2Samuel:2:30 @And Joab came back from fighting Abner: and when he had got all his men together, it was seen that nineteen of David's men, in addition to Asahel, were not with them.

bbe@2Samuel:3:1 @Now there was a long war between Saul's people and David's people; and David became stronger and stronger, but those on Saul's side became more and more feeble.

bbe@2Samuel:3:2 @While David was in Hebron he became the father of sons: the oldest was Amnon, son of Ahinoam of Jezreel;

bbe@2Samuel:3:3 @And the second, Chileab, whose mother was Abigail, the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom, son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai, king of Geshur;

bbe@2Samuel:3:5 @And the sixth, Ithream, whose mother was David's wife Eglah. These were the sons of David, whose birth took place in Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:3:6 @Now while there was war between Saul's people and David's people, Abner was making himself strong among the supporters of Saul.

bbe@2Samuel:3:8 @And Abner was very angry at the words of Ish-bosheth, and he said, Am I a dog's head of Judah? I am this day doing all in my power for the cause of your father Saul and for his brothers and his friends, and have not given you up into the hands of David, and now you say I have done wrong with a woman.

bbe@2Samuel:3:11 @And so great was Ish-bosheth's fear of Abner that he was not able to say a word in answer.

bbe@2Samuel:3:17 @Then Abner had a talk with the chief men of Israel, saying, In the past it was your desire to make David your king: so now, do it:

bbe@2Samuel:3:22 @Now the servants of David and Joab had been out attacking a band of armed men, and they came back with a great store of goods taken in the fight: but Abner was no longer in Hebron with David, for he had sent him away and he had gone in peace.

bbe@2Samuel:3:23 @When Joab and his men came, news was given them that Abner, the son of Ner, had come to the king, who had let him go away again in peace.

bbe@2Samuel:3:27 @And when Abner was back in Hebron, Joab took him on one side by the doorway of the town to have a word with him quietly, and there he gave him a wound in the stomach, causing his death in payment for the death of his brother Asahel.

bbe@2Samuel:3:29 @May it come on the head of Joab and all his father's family: among the men of Joab's family may there ever be some who are diseased or lepers, or who do the work of women, or are put to the sword, or are wasted from need of food!

bbe@2Samuel:3:33 @And the king made a song of grief for Abner and said, Was the death of Abner to be like the death of a foolish man?

bbe@2Samuel:3:34 @Your hands were free, your feet were not chained: like the downfall of a man before evil men, so was your fall. And the weeping of the people over him went on again.

bbe@2Samuel:3:35 @And the people came to make David take food, while it was still day, but David with an oath said, May God's punishment be on me if I take a taste of bread or any other thing till the sun has gone down!

bbe@2Samuel:3:36 @And all the people took note of it and were pleased: like everything the king did, it was pleasing to the people.

bbe@2Samuel:3:37 @So it was clear to Israel and to all the people on that day that the king was not responsible for the death of Abner, the son of Ner.

bbe@2Samuel:4:1 @And when Saul's son Ish-bosheth had news that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.

bbe@2Samuel:4:2 @And Saul's son had two men, captains of bands, one named Baanah and the other Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the tribe of Benjamin; (for Beeroth was at one time taken to be part of Benjamin:

bbe@2Samuel:4:4 @Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son whose feet were damaged. He was five years old when news of the death of Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel, and the woman who took care of him took him up and went in flight: and while she was getting him away as quickly as she was able, he had a fall and his feet were damaged. His name was Mephibosheth.

bbe@2Samuel:4:5 @And Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, went out and came to the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, when he was resting in the middle of the day. Now the woman who kept the door was cleaning grain, and sleep overcame her.

bbe@2Samuel:4:7 @And when they came into the house, Ish-bosheth was stretched on his bed in his bedroom; and they made an attack on him and put him to death, and, cutting off his head, they took it with them and went by the road through the Arabah all night.

bbe@2Samuel:4:10 @When one came to me with the news of Saul's death, in the belief that it would be good news, I took him and put him to death in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news:

bbe@2Samuel:5:2 @In the past when Saul was king over us, it was you who went at the head of Israel when they went out or came in: and the Lord said to you, You are to be the keeper of my people Israel and their ruler.

bbe@2Samuel:5:4 @David was thirty years old when he became king, and he was king for forty years,

bbe@2Samuel:5:10 @And David became greater and greater; for the Lord, the God of armies, was with him.

bbe@2Samuel:5:20 @And David went to Baal-perazim, and overcame them there; and he said, The Lord has let the forces fighting against me be broken before me as a wall is broken by rushing waters. So that place was named Baal-perazim.

bbe@2Samuel:6:3 @And they put the ark of God on a new cart and took it out of the house of Abinadab which was on the hill: and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were the drivers of the cart.

bbe@2Samuel:6:8 @And David was angry because of the Lord's outburst of wrath against Uzzah: and he gave that place the name Perez-uzzah, which is its name to this day.

bbe@2Samuel:6:9 @And such was David's fear of the Lord that day, that he said, How may I let the ark of God come to me?

bbe@2Samuel:6:11 @And the ark of the Lord was in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite for three months: and the Lord sent a blessing on Obed-edom and all his family.

bbe@2Samuel:6:14 @And David, clothed in a linen ephod, was dancing before the Lord with all his strength

bbe@2Samuel:6:20 @Then David came back to give a blessing to his family. And Michal, Saul's daughter, came out to him and said, How full of glory was the king of Israel today, who let himself be seen uncovered by his servant-girls like a foolish person uncovering himself without shame!

bbe@2Samuel:6:21 @And David said to Michal, I was dancing before the Lord, who put me over your father and all his sons, to make me a ruler over the people of the Lord, over his people Israel: and I will go on playing before the Lord;

bbe@2Samuel:7:1 @Now when the king was living in his house, and the Lord had given him rest from war on every side;

bbe@2Samuel:7:15 @But my mercy will not be taken away from him, as I took it from him who was before you.

bbe@2Samuel:7:19 @And this was only a small thing to you, O Lord God; but your words have even been about the far-off future of your servant's family, O Lord God!

bbe@2Samuel:8:15 @And David was king over all Israel, judging and giving right decisions for all his people.

bbe@2Samuel:8:16 @And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the army; and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was keeper of the records;

bbe@2Samuel:8:17 @And Zadok and Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, were priests; and Seraiah was the scribe;

bbe@2Samuel:8:18 @And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were priests

bbe@2Samuel:9:2 @Now there was of Saul's people a servant named Ziba, and they sent him to David; and the king said to him, Are you Ziba? And he said, I am.

bbe@2Samuel:9:7 @And David said to him, Have no fear: for truly I will be good to you, because of your father Jonathan, and I will give back to you all the land which was Saul's; and you will have a place at my table at all times.

bbe@2Samuel:10:2 @And David said, I will be a friend to Hanun, the son of Nahash, as his father was a friend to me. So David sent his servants, to give him words of comfort on account of his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.

bbe@2Samuel:10:17 @And word of this was given to David: and he got all Israel together and went over Jordan and came to Helam. And the Aramaeans put their forces in position against David, and made an attack on him.

bbe@2Samuel:10:18 @And the Aramaeans went in flight before Israel; and David put to the sword the men of seven hundred Aramaean war-carriages and forty thousand footmen, and Shobach, the captain of the army, was wounded, and came to his death there.

bbe@2Samuel:11:1 @Now in the spring, at the time when kings go out to war, David sent Joab and his servants and all Israel with him; and they made waste the land of the children of Ammon, and took up their position before Rabbah, shutting it in. But David was still at Jerusalem.

bbe@2Samuel:11:2 @Now one evening, David got up from his bed, and while he was walking on the roof of the king's house, he saw from there a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful.

bbe@2Samuel:11:3 @And David sent to get knowledge who the woman was. And one said, Is this not Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam and wife of Uriah the Hittite?

bbe@2Samuel:11:5 @And the woman became with child; and she sent word to David that she was with child.

bbe@2Samuel:11:7 @And when Uriah came to him, David put questions to him about how Joab and the people were, and how the war was going.

bbe@2Samuel:11:8 @And David said to Uriah, Go down to your house and let your feet be washed. And Uriah went away from the king's house, and an offering from the king was sent after him.

bbe@2Samuel:11:10 @And when word was given to David that Uriah had not gone down to his house, David said to Uriah, Have you not come from a journey? why did you not go down to your house?

bbe@2Samuel:11:12 @And David said to Uriah, Be here today, and after that I will let you go. So Uriah was in Jerusalem that day and the day after.

bbe@2Samuel:11:16 @So while Joab was watching the town, he put Uriah in the place where it was clear to him the best fighters were.

bbe@2Samuel:11:20 @If the king is angry and says, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall?

bbe@2Samuel:11:22 @So the man went, and came to David, and gave him all the news which Joab had sent him to give; then David was angry with Joab and said, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall? who put Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, to death? did not a woman send a great stone down on him from the wall, putting him to death at Thebez? why did you go so near the wall?

bbe@2Samuel:11:26 @And when the wife of Uriah had news that her husband was dead, she gave herself up to weeping for him.

bbe@2Samuel:11:27 @And when the days of weeping were past, David sent for her, and took her into his house, and she became his wife and gave him a son. But the Lord was not pleased with the thing David had done.

bbe@2Samuel:12:3 @But the poor man had only one little she-lamb, which he had got and taken care of: from its birth it had been with him like one of his children; his meat was its food, and from his cup it took its drink, resting in his arms, and it was like a daughter to him.

bbe@2Samuel:12:5 @And David was full of wrath against that man; and he said to Nathan, By the living Lord, death is the right punishment for the man who has done this:

bbe@2Samuel:12:15 @Then Nathan went back to his house. And the hand of the Lord was on David's son, the child of Uriah's wife, and it became very ill.

bbe@2Samuel:12:16 @So David made prayer to God for the child; and he took no food day after day, and went in and, stretching himself out on the earth, was there all night.

bbe@2Samuel:12:18 @And then on the seventh day the child's death took place. And David's servants were in fear of giving him the news of the child's death: for they said, Truly, while the child was still living he gave no attention when we said anything to him: what will he do to himself if we give him word that the child is dead?

bbe@2Samuel:12:19 @But when David saw that his servants were talking together quietly, he was certain that the child was dead: and he said to his servants, Is the child dead? and they said, He is.

bbe@2Samuel:12:20 @Then David got up from the earth, and after washing and rubbing himself with oil and changing his clothing, he went into the house of the Lord and gave worship: then he went back to his house, and at his order they put food before him and he had a meal.

bbe@2Samuel:12:21 @Then his servants said to him, Why have you been acting in this way? you were weeping and going without food while the child was still living; but when the child was dead, you got up and had a meal.

bbe@2Samuel:12:22 @And he said, While the child was still living I went without food and gave myself up to weeping: for I said, Who is able to say that the Lord will not have mercy on me and give the child life?

bbe@2Samuel:12:24 @And David gave comfort to his wife Bath-sheba, and he went in to her and had connection with her: and she had a son to whom she gave the name Solomon. And he was dear to the Lord.

bbe@2Samuel:12:26 @Now Joab was fighting against Rabbah, in the land of the children of Ammon, and he took the water-town.

bbe@2Samuel:12:30 @And he took the crown of Milcom from his head; the weight of it was a talent of gold, and in it were stones of great price; and it was put on David's head. And he took a great store of goods from the town.

bbe@2Samuel:13:1 @Now after this, it came about that Absalom, David's son, had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and David's son Amnon was in love with her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:2 @And he was so deeply in love that he became ill because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin, and so it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:3 @But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother: and Jonadab was a very wise man.

bbe@2Samuel:13:8 @So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was in bed. And she took paste and made cakes before his eyes, cooking them over the fire.

bbe@2Samuel:13:15 @Then Amnon was full of hate for her, hating her with a hate greater than his earlier love for her

bbe@2Samuel:13:17 @Then he gave a cry to the servant who was waiting on him and said, Put this woman out, and let the door be locked after her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:21 @But when King David had news of all these things he was very angry; but he did not make trouble for Amnon his son, for he was dear to David, being his oldest son.

bbe@2Samuel:13:22 @But Absalom said nothing to his brother Amnon, good or bad: for he was full of hate for him, because he had taken his sister Tamar by force.

bbe@2Samuel:13:30 @Now while they were on their way, news was given to David that Absalom had put to death all the sons of the king and that not one of them was still living.

bbe@2Samuel:13:34 @But Absalom went in flight. And the young man who kept the watch, lifting up his eyes, saw that a great band of people was coming down the slope by the way of the Horons; and the watchman came and gave word to the king, saying, I saw men coming down by the way of the Horons, from the hillside.

bbe@2Samuel:13:36 @And while he was talking, the king's sons came, with weeping and loud cries: and the king and all his servants were weeping bitterly.

bbe@2Samuel:13:37 @So Absalom went in flight and came to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur, where he was for three years.

bbe@2Samuel:13:38 @And the king was sorrowing for his son all the time.

bbe@2Samuel:13:39 @And the heart of David was wasted with desire for Absalom: for he was comforted for the death of Amnon.

bbe@2Samuel:14:1 @Now it was clear to Joab, the son of Zeruiah, that the king's heart was turning to Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:14:5 @And the king said to her, What is your trouble? And her answer was, Truly I am a widow, and my husband is dead.

bbe@2Samuel:14:6 @And I had two sons, and the two of them had a fight in the field, and there was no one to come between them, and one with a blow put the other to death.

bbe@2Samuel:14:7 @And now all the family is turned against me, your servant, saying, Give up him who was the cause of his brother's death, so that we may put him to death in payment for the life of his brother, whose life he took; and we will put an end to the one who will get the heritage: so they will put out my last burning coal, and my husband will have no name or offspring on the face of the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:14:25 @Now in all Israel there was no one so greatly to be praised for his beautiful form as Absalom: from his feet to the crown of his head he was completely beautiful.

bbe@2Samuel:14:26 @And when he had his hair cut, (which he did at the end of every year, because of the weight of his hair;) the weight of the hair was two hundred shekels by the king's weight.

bbe@2Samuel:14:27 @And Absalom was the father of three sons and of one daughter named Tamar, who was very beautiful.

bbe@2Samuel:14:28 @For two full years Absalom was living in Jerusalem without ever seeing the face of the king.

bbe@2Samuel:14:32 @And Absalom's answer was, See, I sent to you saying, Come here, so that I may send you to the king to say, Why have I come back from Geshur? it would be better for me to be there still: let me now see the king's face, and if there is any sin in me, let him put me to death.

bbe@2Samuel:15:4 @And more than this, Absalom said, If only I was made judge in the land, so that every man who has any cause or question might come to me, and I would give a right decision for him!

bbe@2Samuel:15:8 @For while I was living in Geshur in Aram, your servant made an oath, saying, If ever the Lord lets me come back to Jerusalem, I will give him worship in Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:15:12 @And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, one of David's helpers, from Giloh his town, while he was making the offerings. And the design against David became strong, for more and more people were joined to Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:15:20 @It was only yesterday you came to us; why then am I to make you go up and down with us? for I have to go where I may; go back then, and take your countrymen with you, and may the Lord's mercy and good faith be with you.

bbe@2Samuel:15:23 @And there was great weeping in all the country when all the people went through; and the king himself was waiting in the Kidron valley and all the people went by him in the direction of the olive-tree on the edge of the waste land.

bbe@2Samuel:15:28 @See, I will be waiting at the way across the river, in the waste land, till I get news from you.

bbe@2Samuel:16:2 @And David said to Ziba, What is your reason for this? And Ziba said, The asses are for the use of the king's people, and the bread and the fruit are food for the young men; and the wine is for drink for those who are overcome by weariness in the waste land.

bbe@2Samuel:16:4 @Then the king said to Ziba, Truly everything which was Mephibosheth's is yours. And Ziba said, I give honour to my lord, may I have grace in your eyes, my lord, O king!

bbe@2Samuel:16:15 @And Absalom and the men of Israel came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel was with him.

bbe@2Samuel:17:4 @And the saying was pleasing to Absalom and to the responsible men of Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:17:14 @Then Absalom and all the men of Israel said, Hushai's suggestion is better than that of Ahithophel. For it was the purpose of the Lord to make the wise designs of Ahithophel without effect, so that the Lord might send evil on Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:17:16 @So now send the news quickly to David, and say, Do not take your night's rest by the way across the river to the waste land, but be certain to go over; or the king and all the people with him will come to destruction.

bbe@2Samuel:17:17 @Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were waiting by En-rogel; and a servant-girl went from time to time and gave them news and they went with the news to King David, for it was not wise for them to let themselves be seen coming into the town.

bbe@2Samuel:17:23 @Now when Ahithophel saw that his suggestion was not acted on, he got his ass ready, and went back to his house, to the town where he came from, and having put his house in order, he put himself to death by hanging; so he came to his end and was put in the resting-place of his father

bbe@2Samuel:17:25 @And Absalom put Amasa at the head of the army in place of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man named Ithra the Ishmaelite, who had been the lover of Abigail, the daughter of Jesse, sister of Zeruiah, Joab's mother.

bbe@2Samuel:17:29 @And honey and butter and sheep and milk-cheeses, for David and his people: for they said, This people is in the waste land, needing food and drink and rest.

bbe@2Samuel:18:5 @And the king gave orders to Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Because of me, be gentle to the young man Absalom. And this order about Absalom was given in the hearing of all the people.

bbe@2Samuel:18:7 @And the people of Israel were overcome there by the servants of David, and there was a great destruction that day, and twenty thousand men were put to the sword.

bbe@2Samuel:18:9 @And Absalom came across some of David's men. And Absalom was seated on his mule, and the mule went under the thick branches of a great tree, and his head became fixed in the tree and he was lifted up between earth and heaven, and the beast under him went on.

bbe@2Samuel:18:14 @Then Joab said, I would have made it safe for you. And he took three spears in his hand, and put them through Absalom's heart, while he was still living, in the branches of the tree.

bbe@2Samuel:18:24 @Now David was seated between the two town doors; and the watchman went up to the roof of the doorways, on the wall, and, lifting up his eyes, saw a man running by himself.

bbe@2Samuel:18:25 @And the watchman gave news of it to the king. And the king said, If he is coming by himself, then he has news. And the man was travelling quickly, and came near.

bbe@2Samuel:18:29 @And the king said, Is it well with the young man Absalom? And Ahimaaz said in answer, When Joab sent me, your servant, I saw a great outcry going on, but I had no knowledge of what it was.

bbe@2Samuel:18:33 @Then the king was much moved, and went up into the room over the door, weeping, and saying, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! if only my life might have been given for yours, O Absalom, my son, my son!

bbe@2Samuel:19:1 @And word was given to Joab that the king was weeping and sorrowing for Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:19:2 @And the salvation of that day was changed to sorrow for all the people: for it was said to the people, The king is in bitter grief for his son.

bbe@2Samuel:19:6 @For your haters, it seems, are dear to you, and your friends are hated. For you have made it clear that captains and servants are nothing to you: and now I see that if Absalom was living and we had all been dead today, it would have been right in your eyes.

bbe@2Samuel:19:8 @Then the king got up and took his seat near the town-door. And word was given to all the people that the king was in the public place: and all the people came before the king. Now all the men of Israel had gone back in flight to their tents.

bbe@2Samuel:19:18 @And kept going across the river to take the people of the king's house over, and to do whatever was desired by the king. And Shimei, the son of Gera, went down on his face in the dust before the king, when he was about to go over Jordan,

bbe@2Samuel:19:24 @And Mephibosheth, the son of Saul's son, came down for the purpose of meeting the king; his feet had not been cared for or his hair cut or his clothing washed from the day when the king went away till the day when he came back in peace.

bbe@2Samuel:19:32 @Now Barzillai was a very old man, as much as eighty years old: and he had given the king everything he had need of, while he was at Mahanaim, for he was a very great man.

bbe@2Samuel:19:36 @Your servant's desire was only to take the king over Jordan; why is the king to give me such a reward?

bbe@2Samuel:20:1 @Now by chance there was present a good-for-nothing person named Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he, sounding the horn, said, We have no part in David, or any interest in the son of Jesse: let every man go to his tent, O Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:20:8 @When they were at the great stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came face to face with them. Now Joab had on his war-dress, and round him a band from which his sword was hanging in its cover; and while he was walking, it came out, falling to the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:20:10 @But Amasa did not see danger from the sword which was now in Joab's left hand, and Joab put it through his stomach so that his inside came out on to the earth, and he did not give him another blow. So Joab and his brother Abishai went on after Sheba, the son of Bichri.

bbe@2Samuel:20:12 @And Amasa was stretched out in a pool of blood in the middle of the highway

bbe@2Samuel:20:18 @Then she said, In the old days, there was a saying, Let them put the question in Abel and in Dan, saying, Has what was ordered by men of good faith in Israel ever come to an end?

bbe@2Samuel:20:23 @Now Joab was over all the army; and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was at the head of the Cherethites and the Pelethites;

bbe@2Samuel:20:24 @And Adoram was overseer of the forced work; and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the recorder;

bbe@2Samuel:20:25 @And Sheva was the scribe, and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;

bbe@2Samuel:20:26 @And in addition, Ira the Jairite was a priest to David.

bbe@2Samuel:21:5 @And they said to the king, As for the man by whom we were wasted, and who made designs against us to have us completely cut off from the land of Israel,

bbe@2Samuel:21:8 @But the king took Armoni and Mephibosheth, the two sons of Saul to whom Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, had given birth; and the five sons of Saul's daughter Merab, whose father was Adriel, the son of Barzillai the Meholathite:

bbe@2Samuel:21:11 @And news was given to David of what Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, one of Saul's wives, had done.

bbe@2Samuel:21:16 @And there came against David one of the offspring of the Rephaim, whose spear was three hundred shekels of brass in weight, and having a new sword, he made an attempt to put David to death.

bbe@2Samuel:21:18 @Now after this there was war with the Philistines again at Gob, and Sibbecai the Hushathite put to death Saph, one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

bbe@2Samuel:21:19 @And again there was war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan, the son of Jair the Beth-lehemite, put to death Goliath the Gittite, the stem of whose spear was like a cloth-worker's rod.

bbe@2Samuel:21:20 @And again there was war at Gath, where there was a very tall man, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet; he was one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

bbe@2Samuel:21:21 @And when he was purposing to put shame on Israel, Jonathan, the son of Shimei, David's brother, put him to death.

bbe@2Samuel:22:8 @Then the earth was moved with a violent shock; the bases of heaven were moved and shaking, because he was angry.

bbe@2Samuel:22:10 @The heavens were bent, so that he might come down; and it was dark under his feet.

bbe@2Samuel:22:14 @The Lord made thunder in the heavens, and the voice of the Highest was sounding out.

bbe@2Samuel:22:19 @They came on me in the day of my trouble: but the Lord was my support.

bbe@2Samuel:22:20 @He took me out into a wide place; he was my saviour because he had delight in me.

bbe@2Samuel:22:24 @And I was upright before him, and I kept myself from sin.

bbe@2Samuel:22:30 @By your help I have made a way through the wall which was shutting me in: by the help of my God I have gone over a wall.

bbe@2Samuel:22:42 @They were crying out, but there was no one to come to their help: even to the Lord, but he gave them no answer.

bbe@2Samuel:22:43 @Then they were crushed as small as the dust of the earth, stamped down under my feet like the waste of the streets.

bbe@2Samuel:22:46 @They will be wasted away, they will come out of their secret places shaking with fear.

bbe@2Samuel:23:1 @Now these are the last words of David. David, the son of Jesse, says, the man who was lifted up on high, the man on whom the God of Jacob put the holy oil, the loved one of Israel's songs, says:

bbe@2Samuel:23:2 @The spirit of the Lord had voice through me, his word was on my tongue.

bbe@2Samuel:23:8 @These are the names of David's men of war: Ishbaal the Hachmonite, chief of the three; his axe was lifted up against eight hundred put to death at one time.

bbe@2Samuel:23:9 @After him was Eleazar, the son of Dodai the Ahohite, one of the three great fighters, who was with David in Pas-dammim when the Philistines came together there for the fight; and when the men of Israel had gone in flight,

bbe@2Samuel:23:10 @He was with David and went on fighting the Philistines till his hand became tired and stiff from gripping his sword: and that day the Lord gave a great salvation, and the people came back after him only to take the goods of the Philistines.

bbe@2Samuel:23:11 @After him was Shammah, the son of Ela the Hararite. And the Philistines came together in Lehi, where there was a bit of land full of seed; and the people went in flight from the Philistines.

bbe@2Samuel:23:14 @And at that time David had taken cover in the strong place, and an armed force of the Philistines was in Beth-lehem.

bbe@2Samuel:23:18 @And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the thirty

bbe@2Samuel:23:19 @Was he not the noblest of the thirty? so he was made their captain: but he was not equal to the first three.

bbe@2Samuel:23:23 @He was honoured over the rest of the thirty, but he was not equal to the first three. And David put him over the fighting men who kept him safe.

bbe@2Samuel:23:24 @Asahel, the brother of Joab, was one of the thirty; and Elhanan, the son of Dodai, of Beth-lehem,

bbe@2Samuel:24:1 @Again the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and moving David against them, he said, Go, take the number of Israel and Judah.

bbe@2Samuel:24:4 @But the king's order was stronger than Joab and the captains of the army. And Joab and the captains of the army went out from the king, to take the number of the children of Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:24:10 @And after the people had been numbered, David's heart was troubled. And David said to the Lord, Great has been my sin in doing this; but now, O Lord, be pleased to take away the sin of your servant, for I have done very foolishly

bbe@2Samuel:24:15 @So David made selection of the disease; and the time was the days of the grain-cutting, when the disease came among the people, causing the death of seventy thousand men from Dan as far as Beer-sheba.

bbe@2Samuel:24:16 @And when the hand of the angel was stretched out in the direction of Jerusalem, for its destruction, the Lord had regret for the evil, and said to the angel who was sending destruction on the people, It is enough; do no more. And the angel of the Lord was by the grain-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

bbe@2Samuel:24:17 @And when David saw the angel who was causing the destruction of the people, he said to the Lord, Truly, the sin is mine; I have done wrong: but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand be against me and against my family.

bbe@1Kings:1:1 @Now King David was old and far on in years; and though they put covers over him, his body was cold.

bbe@1Kings:1:4 @Now she was very beautiful; and she took care of the king, waiting on him at all times; but the king had no connection with her.

bbe@1Kings:1:6 @Now all his life his father had never gone against him or said to him, Why have you done so? and he was a very good-looking man, and younger than Absalom.

bbe@1Kings:1:15 @Then Bath-sheba went into the king's room; now the king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammite was waiting on him.

bbe@1Kings:1:22 @And while she was still talking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.

bbe@1Kings:1:27 @Has this thing been done by my lord the king, without giving word to your servants who was to be placed on my lord the king's seat after him?

bbe@1Kings:1:39 @And Zadok the priest took the vessel of oil out of the Tent, and put the holy oil on Solomon. And when the horn was sounded, all the people said, Long life to King Solomon!

bbe@1Kings:1:40 @And all the people came up after him, piping with pipes, and they were glad with great joy, so that the earth was shaking with the sound.

bbe@1Kings:1:41 @And it came to the ears of Adonijah and all the guests who were with him, when their meal was ended. And Joab, hearing the sound of the horn, said, What is the reason of this noise as if the town was worked up?

bbe@1Kings:1:45 @And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet put the holy oil on him and made him king in Gihon; and they came back from there with joy, and the town was all worked up. This is the noise which has come to your ears.

bbe@1Kings:1:47 @And the king's servants came to our lord King David, blessing him and saying, May God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and the seat of his authority greater than your seat; and the king was bent low in worship on his bed.

bbe@1Kings:1:50 @And Adonijah himself was full of fear because of Solomon; and he got up and went to the altar, and put his hands on its horns.

bbe@1Kings:2:10 @Then David went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David.

bbe@1Kings:2:11 @David was king over Israel for forty years: for seven years he was king in Hebron and for thirty-three years in Jerusalem.

bbe@1Kings:2:12 @And Solomon took his place on the seat of David his father, and his kingdom was made safe and strong.

bbe@1Kings:2:15 @And he said, You saw how the kingdom was mine, and all Israel had the idea that I would be their king; but now the kingdom is turned about, and has become my brother's, for it was given to him by the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:2:34 @So Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, went up, and falling on him, put him to death; and his body was put to rest in his house in the waste land.

bbe@1Kings:2:39 @But after three years, two of the servants of Shimei went in flight to Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And word was given to Shimei that his servants had gone to Gath.

bbe@1Kings:2:41 @And news was given to Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and had come back again.

bbe@1Kings:2:46 @So the king gave orders to Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada; and he went out and, falling on him, put him to death. And Solomon's authority over the kingdom was complete.

bbe@1Kings:3:1 @Solomon became the son-in-law of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter as his wife, keeping her in the town of David, till the house he was building for himself, and the house of the Lord and the wall round Jerusalem, were complete.

bbe@1Kings:3:4 @And the king went to Gibeon to make an offering there, because that was the chief high place: it was Solomon's way to make a thousand burned offerings on that altar.

bbe@1Kings:3:6 @And Solomon said, Great was your mercy to David my father, as his life before you was true and upright and his heart was true to you; and you have kept for him this greatest mercy, a son to take his place this day.

bbe@1Kings:3:13 @And with this I have given you what you made no request for: wealth and honour, so that no king was ever your equal.

bbe@1Kings:3:15 @And Solomon, awakening, saw that it was a dream; then he came to Jerusalem, where he went before the ark of the agreement of the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings; and he made a feast for all his servants.

bbe@1Kings:3:18 @And three days after the birth of my child, this woman had a child: we were together, no other-person was with us in the house but we two only.

bbe@1Kings:3:19 @In the night, this woman, sleeping on her child, was the cause of its death.

bbe@1Kings:3:20 @And she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while your servant was sleeping; and she took it in her arms and put her dead child in my arms.

bbe@1Kings:3:21 @And when I got up to give my child the breast, I saw that it was dead; but in the morning, looking at it with care, I saw that it was not my son.

bbe@1Kings:3:28 @And news of this decision which the king had made went through all Israel; and they had fear of the king, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to give decisions.

bbe@1Kings:4:1 @Now Solomon was king over all Israel.

bbe@1Kings:4:2 @And these were his chief men: Azariah, the son of Zadok, was the priest;

bbe@1Kings:4:3 @Elihoreph and Ahijah, the sons of Shisha, were scribes; Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the recorder;

bbe@1Kings:4:4 @Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was head of the army; Zadok and Abiathar were priests;

bbe@1Kings:4:5 @Azariah, the son of Nathan, was over those in authority in the different divisions of the country; Zabud, the son of Nathan, was priest and the king's friend;

bbe@1Kings:4:6 @Ahishar was controller of the king's house; Adoniram, the son of Abda, was overseer of the forced work.

bbe@1Kings:4:7 @And Solomon put twelve overseers over all Israel, to be responsible for the stores needed for the king and those of his house; every man was responsible for one month in the year.

bbe@1Kings:4:11 @... the son of Abinadab in all Naphath-dor; his wife was Taphath, the daughter of Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:4:21 @And Solomon was ruler over all the kingdoms from the River to the land of the Philistines, and as far as the edge of Egypt; men gave him offerings and were his servants all the days of his life.

bbe@1Kings:4:22 @And the amount of Solomon's food for one day was thirty measures of crushed grain and sixty measures of meal;

bbe@1Kings:4:27 @And those overseers, every man in his month, saw that food was produced for Solomon and all his guests, they took care that nothing was overlooked.

bbe@1Kings:4:28 @And they took grain and dry grass for the horses and the carriage-horses, to the right place, every man as he was ordered.

bbe@1Kings:4:30 @And Solomon's wisdom was greater than the wisdom of all the people of the East and all the wisdom of Egypt.

bbe@1Kings:4:31 @For he was wiser than all men, even than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman and Calcol and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and he had a great name among all the nations round about.

bbe@1Kings:4:32 @He was the maker of three thousand wise sayings, and of songs to the number of a thousand and five.

bbe@1Kings:5:3 @You have knowledge that David my father was not able to make a house for the name of the Lord his God, because of the wars which were round him on every side, till the Lord put all those who were against him under his feet.

bbe@1Kings:5:12 @Now the Lord had given Solomon wisdom, as he had said to him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and they made an agreement together

bbe@1Kings:5:14 @And sent them to Lebanon in bands of ten thousand every month: for a month they were working in Lebanon and for two months in their country, and Adoniram was in control of them.

bbe@1Kings:6:1 @In the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel came out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year that Solomon was king of Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, the building of the Lord's house was started.

bbe@1Kings:6:2 @The house which Solomon made for the Lord was sixty cubits long, twenty cubits wide and thirty cubits high.

bbe@1Kings:6:3 @The covered way before the Temple of the house was twenty cubits long, as wide as the house, and ten cubits wide in front of the house.

bbe@1Kings:6:6 @The lowest line of them being five cubits wide, the middle six cubits wide and the third seven cubits; for there was a space all round the outside walls of the house so that the boards supporting the rooms did not have to be fixed in the walls of the house.

bbe@1Kings:6:7 @(And the stones used in the building of the house were squared at the place where they were cut out; there was no sound of hammer or axe or any iron instrument while they were building the house.)

bbe@1Kings:6:8 @The door to the lowest side rooms was in the right side of the house; and they went up by twisting steps into the middle rooms, and from the middle into the third.

bbe@1Kings:6:15 @The walls of the house were covered inside with cedar-wood boards; from the floor to the roof of the house they were covered inside with wood; and the floor was covered with boards of cypress-wood.

bbe@1Kings:6:16 @And at the back of the house a further space of twenty cubits was shut in with boards of cedar-wood, for the inmost room.

bbe@1Kings:6:17 @And the house, that is, the Temple, in front of the holy place was forty cubits long.

bbe@1Kings:6:18 @(All the inside of the house was cedar-wood, ornamented with designs of buds and flowers; no stonework was to be seen inside.)

bbe@1Kings:6:20 @And the inmost room was twenty cubits square and twenty cubits high, plated over with clear gold, and he made an altar of cedar-wood, plating it with gold.

bbe@1Kings:6:21 @Solomon had all the inside of the house covered with gold, and he put chains of gold across in front of the inmost room, which itself was covered with gold.

bbe@1Kings:6:22 @Plates of gold were put all through the house till it was covered completely (and the altar in the inmost room was all covered with gold).

bbe@1Kings:6:24 @With outstretched wings five cubits wide; the distance from the edge of one wing to the edge of the other was ten cubits.

bbe@1Kings:6:30 @And the floor of the house was covered with gold, inside and out.

bbe@1Kings:6:36 @And the inner space was walled with three lines of squared stones and a line of cedar-wood boards.

bbe@1Kings:6:37 @In the fourth year the base of the house was put in its place, in the month Ziv.

bbe@1Kings:6:38 @And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, the building of the house was complete in every detail, as it had been designed. So he was seven years building it.

bbe@1Kings:7:1 @Solomon was thirteen years building a house for himself till it was complete.

bbe@1Kings:7:2 @And he made the house of the Woods of Lebanon, which was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high, resting on four lines of cedar-wood pillars with cedar-wood supports on the pillars.

bbe@1Kings:7:3 @And it was covered with cedar over the forty-five supports which were on the pillars, fifteen in a line.

bbe@1Kings:7:7 @Then he made a covered room for his high seat when he gave decisions; this was the covered room of judging; it was covered with cedar-wood from floor to roof.

bbe@1Kings:7:8 @And the house for his living-place, the other open square in the covered room, was made in the same way. And then he made a house like it for Pharaoh's daughter, whom Solomon had taken as his wife.

bbe@1Kings:7:10 @And the base was of great masses of highly priced stone, some ten cubits and some eight cubits square.

bbe@1Kings:7:12 @The great outer square all round was walled with three lines of squared stones and a line of cedar-wood boards, round about the open square inside the house of the Lord and the covered room of the king's house.

bbe@1Kings:7:14 @He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in brass; he was full of wisdom and knowledge and an expert worker in brass. He came to King Solomon and did all his work for him.

bbe@1Kings:7:15 @He it was who made the two brass pillars; the first pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a line of twelve cubits went round it; and the second was the same.

bbe@1Kings:7:22 @The tops of the pillars had a design of flowers; and the work of making the pillars was complete.

bbe@1Kings:7:25 @It was supported on twelve oxen, with their back parts turned to the middle of it, three of them facing to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east; the vessel was resting on top of them.

bbe@1Kings:7:26 @It was as thick as a man's open hand, and was curved like the edge of a cup, like the flower of a lily: it would take two thousand baths.

bbe@1Kings:7:31 @The mouth of it inside the angle-plate was one cubit across; it was round like a pillar, a cubit and a half across; it had designs cut on it; the sides were square, not round.

bbe@1Kings:7:35 @And at the top of the base there was a round vessel, half a cubit high;

bbe@1Kings:7:38 @And he made ten brass washing-vessels, everyone taking forty baths, and measuring four cubits; one vessel was placed on every one of the ten bases.

bbe@1Kings:7:43 @And the ten bases, with the ten washing-vessels on them;

bbe@1Kings:7:47 @The weight of all these vessels was not measured, because there was such a number of them; it was not possible to get the weight of the brass.

bbe@1Kings:7:48 @And Solomon had all the vessels made for use in the house of the Lord: the altar of gold and the gold table on which the holy bread was placed;

bbe@1Kings:7:51 @So all the work King Solomon had done in the house of the Lord was complete. Then Solomon took the holy things which David his father had given, the silver and the gold and all the vessels, and put them in the store-houses of the house of the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:8:7 @For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.

bbe@1Kings:8:9 @There was nothing in the ark but the two flat stones which Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made an agreement with the children of Israel when they came out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@1Kings:8:10 @Now when the priests had come out of the holy place, the house of the Lord was full of the cloud,

bbe@1Kings:8:11 @So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud, for the house of the Lord was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:8:12 @Then Solomon said, O Lord, to the sun you have given the heaven for a living-place, but your living-place was not seen by men;

bbe@1Kings:8:17 @Now it was in the heart of David my father to put up a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@1Kings:8:57 @Now may the Lord our God be with us as he was with our fathers; let him never go away from us or give us up;

bbe@1Kings:8:64 @The same day the king made holy the middle of the open square in front of the house of the Lord, offering there the burned offering and the meal offering and the fat of the peace-offerings; for there was not room on the brass altar of the Lord for the burned offerings and the meal offerings and the fat of the peace-offerings.

bbe@1Kings:9:12 @But when Hiram came from Tyre to see the towns which Solomon had given him, he was not pleased with them.

bbe@1Kings:9:15 @Now, this was the way of Solomon's system of forced work for the building of the Lord's house and of the king's house, and the Millo and the wall of Jerusalem and Megiddo and Gezer....

bbe@1Kings:9:17 @... and Solomon was the builder of Gezer and Beth-horon the lower,

bbe@1Kings:9:18 @And Baalath and Tamar in the waste land, in that land;

bbe@1Kings:9:19 @And all the store-towns and the towns which Solomon had for his war-carriages and for his horsemen, and everything which it was his pleasure to put up in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land under his rule.

bbe@1Kings:9:25 @Three times in the year it was Solomon's way to give burned offerings and peace-offerings on the altar he had made to the Lord, causing his fire-offering to go up on the altar before the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:10:3 @And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which the king did not make clear to her.

bbe@1Kings:10:5 @And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.

bbe@1Kings:10:6 @And she said to the king, The account which was given to me in my country of your acts and your wisdom was true.

bbe@1Kings:10:7 @But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and now I see that it was not half the story; your wisdom and your wealth are much greater than they said.

bbe@1Kings:10:9 @May the Lord your God be praised, whose pleasure it was to put you on the seat of the kingdom of Israel; because the Lord's love for Israel is eternal, he has made you king, to be their judge in righteousness

bbe@1Kings:10:10 @And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a great store of spices and jewels: never again was such a wealth of spices seen as that which the queen of Sheba gave King Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:10:14 @Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;

bbe@1Kings:10:19 @There were six steps going up to it, and the top of it was round at the back, there were arms on the two sides of the seat, and two lions by the side of the arms;

bbe@1Kings:10:20 @And twelve lions were placed on the one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.

bbe@1Kings:10:21 @And all King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold; not one was of silver, for no one gave a thought to silver in the days of King Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:10:23 @And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.

bbe@1Kings:11:2 @The nations of which the Lord had said to the children of Israel, You are not to take wives from them and they are not to take wives from you; or they will certainly make you go after their gods: to these Solomon was united in love.

bbe@1Kings:11:3 @He had seven hundred wives, daughters of kings, and three hundred other wives; and through his wives his heart was turned away.

bbe@1Kings:11:4 @For it came about that when Solomon was old, his heart was turned away to other gods by his wives; and his heart was no longer true to the Lord his God as the heart of his father David had been.

bbe@1Kings:11:9 @And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had twice come to him in a vision;

bbe@1Kings:11:10 @And had given him orders about this very thing, that he was not to go after other gods; but he did not keep the orders of the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:11:14 @So the Lord sent Hadad the Edomite to make trouble for Solomon: he was of the king's seed in Edom.

bbe@1Kings:11:19 @Now Hadad was very pleasing to Pharaoh, so that he gave him the sister of his wife, Tahpenes the queen, for his wife.

bbe@1Kings:11:20 @And the sister of Tahpenes had a son by him, Genubath, whom Tahpenes took care of in Pharaoh's house; and Genubath was living in Pharaoh's house among Pharaoh's sons.

bbe@1Kings:11:21 @Now when Hadad had news in Egypt that David had been put to rest with his fathers, and that Joab, the captain of the army, was dead, he said to Pharaoh, Send me back to my country.

bbe@1Kings:11:25 @He was a trouble to Israel all through the days of Solomon. And this is the damage Hadad did: he was cruel to Israel while he was ruler over Edom.

bbe@1Kings:11:26 @And there was Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was Zeruah, a widow; and his hand was lifted up against the king.

bbe@1Kings:11:27 @The way in which his hand came to be lifted up against the king was this: Solomon was building the Millo and making good the damaged parts of the town of his father David;

bbe@1Kings:11:28 @And Jeroboam was an able and responsible man; and Solomon saw that he was a good worker and made him overseer of all the work given to the sons of Joseph.

bbe@1Kings:11:29 @Now at that time, when Jeroboam was going out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite came across him on the road; now Ahijah had put on a new robe; and the two of them were by themselves in the open country.

bbe@1Kings:11:40 @And Solomon was looking for a chance to put Jeroboam to death; but he went in flight to Egypt, to Shishak, king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:11:42 @And the time Solomon was king in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.

bbe@1Kings:11:43 @And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Solomon went to rest with his fathers and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:12:2 @And, hearing of it, Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who was still in Egypt, where he had gone in flight from Solomon, and was living there, came back to his town Zeredah, in the hill-country of Ephraim;

bbe@1Kings:12:6 @Then King Rehoboam took the opinion of the old men who had been with Solomon his father when he was living, and said, In your opinion, what answer am I to give to this people?

bbe@1Kings:12:17 @(But Rehoboam was still king over those of the children of Israel who were living in the towns of Judah.)

bbe@1Kings:12:18 @Then King Rehoboam sent Adoniram, the overseer of the forced work; and he was stoned to death by all Israel. And King Rehoboam went quickly and got into his carriage to go in flight to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Kings:12:19 @So Israel was turned away from the family of David to this day.

bbe@1Kings:12:20 @Now when all Israel had news that Jeroboam had come back, they sent for him to come before the meeting of the people, and made him king over Israel: not one of them was joined to the family of David but only the tribe of Judah.

bbe@1Kings:12:25 @Then Jeroboam made the town of Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim a strong place, and was living there; and from there he went out and did the same to Penuel.

bbe@1Kings:13:1 @Then a man of God came from Judah by the order of the Lord to Beth-el, where Jeroboam was by the altar, burning offerings.

bbe@1Kings:13:3 @The same day he gave them a sign, saying, This is the sign which the Lord has given: See, the altar will be broken and the burned waste on it overturned.

bbe@1Kings:13:5 @And the altar was broken and the burned waste on it overturned; this was the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:13:6 @Then the king made answer and said to the man of God, Make a prayer now for the grace of the Lord your God, and for me, that my hand may be made well. And in answer to the prayer of the man of God, the king's hand was made well again, as it was before.

bbe@1Kings:13:9 @For so I was ordered by the word of the Lord, who said, You are not to take food or a drink of water, and you are not to go back the way you came.

bbe@1Kings:13:11 @Now there was an old prophet living in Beth-el; and one of his sons came and gave him word of all the man of God had done that day in Beth-el, and they gave their father an account of the words he had said to the king.

bbe@1Kings:13:14 @And went after the man of God, and came up with him while he was seated under an oak-tree. And he said to him, Are you the man of God who came from Judah? And he said, I am.

bbe@1Kings:13:24 @And he went on his way; but on the road a lion came rushing at him and put him to death; and his dead body was stretched in the road with the ass by its side, and the lion was there by the body.

bbe@1Kings:13:25 @And some men, going by, saw the body stretched out in the road with the lion by its side; and they came and gave news of it in the town where the old prophet was living.

bbe@1Kings:14:4 @So Jeroboam's wife did so, and got up and went to Shiloh and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah was unable to see, because he was very old.

bbe@1Kings:14:8 @And took the kingdom away by force from the seed of David and gave it to you, you have not been like my servant David, who kept my orders, and was true to me with all his heart, doing only what was right in my eyes.

bbe@1Kings:14:10 @So I will send evil on the line of Jeroboam, cutting off from his family every male child, those who are shut up and those who go free in Israel; the family of Jeroboam will be brushed away like a man brushing away waste till it is all gone.

bbe@1Kings:14:20 @And Jeroboam was king for twenty-two years, and was put to rest with his fathers, and Nadab his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:14:21 @And Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, was king in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king, and he was king for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the town which the Lord had made his out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there; his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman.

bbe@1Kings:14:30 @And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

bbe@1Kings:14:31 @And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman. And Abijam his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:15:2 @For three years he was king in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.

bbe@1Kings:15:3 @And he did the same sins which his father had done before him: his heart was not completely true to the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father.

bbe@1Kings:15:5 @Because David did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, and never in all his life went against his orders, but only in the question of Uriah the Hittite.

bbe@1Kings:15:7 @Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

bbe@1Kings:15:9 @In the twentieth year that Jeroboam was king of Israel, Asa became king over Judah.

bbe@1Kings:15:10 @And he was king for forty-one years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.

bbe@1Kings:15:11 @Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as David his father did.

bbe@1Kings:15:14 @The high places, however, were not taken away: but still the heart of Asa was true to the Lord all his life.

bbe@1Kings:15:16 @Now there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days.

bbe@1Kings:15:17 @And Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah, so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah.

bbe@1Kings:15:18 @Then Asa took all the silver and gold which was still stored in the Lord's house, and in the king's house, and sent them, in the care of his servants, to Ben-hadad, son of Tabrimmon, son of Rezon, king of Aram, at Damascus, saying,

bbe@1Kings:15:19 @Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you an offering of silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me

bbe@1Kings:15:21 @And Baasha, hearing of it, put a stop to the building of Ramah, and was living in Tirzah.

bbe@1Kings:15:22 @Then King Asa got all Judah together, making every man come; and they took away the stones and the wood with which Baasha was building Ramah, and King Asa made use of them for building Geba in the land of Benjamin, and Mizpah.

bbe@1Kings:15:23 @Now the rest of the acts of Asa, and his power, and all he did, and the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? But when he was old he had a disease of the feet.

bbe@1Kings:15:24 @So Asa went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:15:25 @Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, became king over Israel in the second year that Asa was king of Judah; and he was king of Israel for two years.

bbe@1Kings:15:29 @And straight away when he became king, he sent destruction on all the offspring of Jeroboam; there was not one living person of all the family of Jeroboam whom he did not put to death, so the word of the Lord, which he said by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite, came about;

bbe@1Kings:15:32 @And there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days.

bbe@1Kings:15:33 @In the third year of the rule of Asa, king of Judah, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, became king over all Israel in Tirzah, and was king for twenty-four years.

bbe@1Kings:16:6 @And Baasha went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth at Tirzah; and Elah his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:16:7 @And the Lord sent his word against Baasha and his family by the mouth of the prophet Jehu, the son of Hanani, because of all the evil he did in the eyes of the Lord, moving him to wrath by the work of his hands, because he was like the family of Jeroboam, and because he put it to death.

bbe@1Kings:16:8 @In the twenty-sixth year that Asa was king of Judah, Elah, the son of Baasha, became king of Israel in Tirzah, and he was king for two years.

bbe@1Kings:16:9 @And his servant Zimri, captain of half his war-carriages, made secret designs against him: now he was in Tirzah, drinking hard in the house of Arza, controller of the king's house in Tirzah.

bbe@1Kings:16:10 @And Zimri went in and made an attack on him and put him to death, in the twenty-seventh year that Asa was king of Judah, and made himself king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:16:15 @In the twenty-seventh year of Asa, king of Judah, Zimri was king for seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were attacking Gibbethon in the land of the Philistines.

bbe@1Kings:16:18 @And when Zimri saw that the town was taken, he went into the inner room of the king's house, and burning the house over his head, came to his end,

bbe@1Kings:16:21 @Then there was a division among the people of Israel; half the people were for making Tibni, son of Ginath, king, and half were supporting Omri

bbe@1Kings:16:23 @In the thirty-first year of Asa, king of Judah, Omri became king over Israel, and he was king for twelve years; for six years he was ruling in Tirzah.

bbe@1Kings:16:28 @So Omri went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria; and Ahab his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:16:29 @In the thirty-eighth year that Asa was king of Judah, Ahab, the son of Omri, became king over Israel; and Ahab was king in Samaria for twenty-two years.

bbe@1Kings:16:31 @And as if copying the evil ways of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, was a small thing for him, he took as his wife Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of Zidon, and became a servant and worshipper of Baal.

bbe@1Kings:17:6 @And the ravens took him bread in the morning and meat in the evening; and the water of the stream was his drink.

bbe@1Kings:17:7 @Now after a time the stream became dry, because there was no rain in the land.

bbe@1Kings:17:11 @And when she was going to get it, he said to her, And get me with it a small bit of bread.

bbe@1Kings:17:16 @The store of meal did not come to an end, and the bottle was never without oil, as the Lord had said by the mouth of Elijah.

bbe@1Kings:17:17 @Now after this, the son of the woman of the house became ill, so ill that there was no breath in him.

bbe@1Kings:18:2 @So Elijah went to let Ahab see him. Now there was no food to be had in Samaria.

bbe@1Kings:18:4 @For when Jezebel was cutting off the prophets of the Lord, Obadiah took a hundred of them, and kept them secretly in a hole in the rock, fifty at a time, and gave them bread and water.)

bbe@1Kings:18:7 @And while Obadiah was on his way, he came face to face with Elijah; and seeing who it was, he went down on his face and said, Is it you, my lord Elijah?

bbe@1Kings:18:13 @Has my lord not had word of what I did when Jezebel was putting the Lord's prophets to death? how I kept a hundred of them in a secret hole in the rock, fifty at a time, and gave them bread and water?

bbe@1Kings:18:26 @So they took the ox which was given them, and made it ready, crying out to Baal from morning till the middle of the day, and saying, O Baal, give ear to us. But there was no voice and no answer. And they were jumping up and down before the altar they had made.

bbe@1Kings:18:28 @So they gave loud cries, cutting themselves with knives and swords, as was their way, till the blood came streaming out all over them.

bbe@1Kings:18:29 @And from the middle of the day they went on with their prayers till the time of the offering; but there was no voice, or any answer, or any who gave attention to them.

bbe@1Kings:18:35 @And the water went all round the altar, till the drain was full.

bbe@1Kings:18:45 @And after a very little time, the heaven became black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab went in his carriage to Jezreel.

bbe@1Kings:18:46 @And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah; and he made himself strong, and went running before Ahab till they came to Jezreel.

bbe@1Kings:19:4 @While he himself went a day's journey into the waste land, and took a seat under a broom-plant, desiring for himself only death; for he said, It is enough: now, O Lord, take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers.

bbe@1Kings:19:11 @Then he said, Go out and take your place on the mountain before the Lord. Then the Lord went by, and mountains were parted by the force of a great wind, and rocks were broken before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind. And after the wind there was an earth-shock, but the Lord was not in the earth-shock.

bbe@1Kings:19:12 @And after the earth-shock a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire, the sound of a soft breath.

bbe@1Kings:19:15 @And the Lord said to him, Go back on your way through the waste land to Damascus; and when you come there, put the holy oil on Hazael to make him king over Aram;

bbe@1Kings:20:12 @Now when this answer was given to Ben-hadad, he was drinking with the kings in the tents, and he said to his men, Take up your positions

bbe@1Kings:20:16 @And in the middle of the day they went out. But Ben-hadad was drinking in the tents with the thirty-two kings who were helping him.

bbe@1Kings:20:27 @And the children of Israel got themselves together, and food was made ready and they went against them; the tents of the children of Israel were like two little flocks of goats before them, but all the country was full of the Aramaeans.

bbe@1Kings:20:29 @Now the two armies kept their positions facing one another for seven days. And on the seventh day the fight was started; and the children of Israel put to the sword a hundred thousand Aramaean footmen in one day.

bbe@1Kings:20:40 @But while your servant was turning this way and that, he was gone. Then the king of Israel said to him, You are responsible; you have given the decision against yourself.

bbe@1Kings:20:41 @Then he quickly took the head-band from his eyes; and the king of Israel saw that he was one of the prophets.

bbe@1Kings:21:6 @And he said to her, Because I was talking to Naboth the Jezreelite, and I said to him, Let me have your vine-garden for a price, or, if it is pleasing to you, I will give you another vine-garden for it: and he said, I will not give you my vine-garden.

bbe@1Kings:21:15 @Then Jezebel, hearing that Naboth had been stoned and was dead, said to Ahab, Get up and take as your heritage the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he would not give you for money, for Naboth is no longer living but is dead.

bbe@1Kings:21:16 @So Ahab, hearing that Naboth was dead, went down to the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite to take it as his heritage.

bbe@1Kings:21:25 @(There was no one like Ahab, who gave himself up to do evil in the eyes of the Lord, moved to it by Jezebel his wife.

bbe@1Kings:22:1 @Now for three years there was no war between Aram and Israel.

bbe@1Kings:22:33 @And when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him.

bbe@1Kings:22:34 @And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded.

bbe@1Kings:22:35 @But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans, and the floor of the carriage was covered with the blood from his wound, and by evening he was dead.

bbe@1Kings:22:38 @And the war-carriage was washed by the pool of Samaria, which was the bathing-place of the loose women, and the dogs were drinking his blood there, as the Lord had said.

bbe@1Kings:22:39 @Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all he did, and his ivory house, and all the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?

bbe@1Kings:22:40 @So Ahab was put to rest with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:22:42 @Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was king for twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.

bbe@1Kings:22:43 @He did as Asa his father had done, not turning away from it, but doing what was right in the eyes of the Lord;

bbe@1Kings:22:48 @At that time there was no king in Edom;

bbe@1Kings:22:49 @And the representative of King Jehoshaphat made a Tarshish-ship to go to Ophir for gold, but it did not go, because it was broken at Ezion-geber.

bbe@1Kings:22:51 @Then Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Jehoram his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:22:52 @Ahaziah, the son of Ahab, became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of the rule of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, and he was king over Israel for two years.

bbe@1Kings:22:54 @He was a servant and worshipper of Baal, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath, as his father had done.

bbe@2Kings:1:2 @Now Ahaziah had a fall from the window of his room in Samaria, and was ill. And he sent men, and said to them, Put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, about the outcome of my disease, to see if I will get well or not.

bbe@2Kings:1:7 @And he said to them, What sort of a man was it who came and said these words to you?

bbe@2Kings:1:8 @And they said in answer, He was a man clothed in a coat of hair, with a leather band about his body. Then he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.

bbe@2Kings:1:9 @Then the king sent to him a captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he went up to him where he was seated on the top of a hill, and said to him, O man of God, the king has said, Come down.

bbe@2Kings:2:1 @Now when the Lord was about to take Elijah up to heaven in a great wind, Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.

bbe@2Kings:2:12 @And when Elisha saw it he gave a cry, My father, my father, the carriages of Israel and its horsemen! And he saw him no longer; and he was full of grief.

bbe@2Kings:2:17 @But when they kept on requesting him, he was shamed and said, Send, then. So they sent fifty men; but after searching for three days, they came back without having seen him.

bbe@2Kings:2:18 @And they came back to him, while he was still at Jericho; and he said to them, Did I not say to you, Go not?

bbe@2Kings:2:22 @And the water was made sweet again to this day, as Elisha said.

bbe@2Kings:3:1 @And Jehoram, the son of Ahab, became king over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of the rule of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah; and he was king for twelve years.

bbe@2Kings:3:4 @Now Mesha, king of Moab, was a sheep-farmer; and he gave regularly to the king of Israel the wool from a hundred thousand lambs and a hundred thousand sheep.

bbe@2Kings:3:5 @But when Ahab was dead, the king of Moab got free from the authority of the king of Israel.

bbe@2Kings:3:8 @And he said, Which way are we to go? And he said in answer, By the waste land of Edom.

bbe@2Kings:3:9 @So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom by a roundabout way for seven days: and there was no water for the army or for the beasts they had with them.

bbe@2Kings:3:11 @But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no prophet of the Lord here, through whom we may get directions from the Lord? And one of the king of Israel's men said in answer, Elisha, the son of Shaphat, is here, who was servant to Elijah.

bbe@2Kings:3:14 @Then Elisha said, By the life of the Lord of armies whose servant I am, if it was not for the respect I have for Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, I would not give a look at you, or see you.

bbe@2Kings:3:15 @But now, get me a player of music, and it will come about that while the man is playing, the hand of the Lord will come on me and I will give you the word of the Lord: and they got a player of music, and while the man was playing, the hand of the Lord was on him.

bbe@2Kings:3:20 @Now in the morning, about the time when the offering was made, they saw water flowing from the direction of Edom till the country was full of water.

bbe@2Kings:3:22 @And early in the morning they got up, when the sun was shining on the water, and they saw the water facing them as red as blood.

bbe@2Kings:3:26 @And when the king of Moab saw that the fight was going against him, he took with him seven hundred men armed with swords, with the idea of forcing a way through to the king of Aram, but they were not able to do so.

bbe@2Kings:3:27 @Then he took his oldest son, who would have been king after him, offering him as a burned offering on the wall. So there was great wrath against Israel; and they went away from him, back to their country.

bbe@2Kings:4:1 @Now a certain woman, the wife of one of the sons of the prophets, came crying to Elisha and said, Your servant my husband is dead; and to your knowledge he was a worshipper of the Lord; but now, the creditor has come to take my two children as servants in payment of his debt.

bbe@2Kings:4:5 @So she went away, and when the door was shut on her and her sons, they took the vessels to her and she put oil into them.

bbe@2Kings:4:6 @And when all the vessels were full, she said to her son, Get me another vessel. And he said, There are no more. And the flow of oil was stopped.

bbe@2Kings:4:8 @Now there came a day when Elisha went to Shunem, and there was a woman of high position living there, who made him come in and have a meal with her. And after that, every time he went by, he went into her house for a meal.

bbe@2Kings:4:18 @Now one day, when the child was older, he went out to his father to where the grain was being cut.

bbe@2Kings:4:27 @And when she came to where the man of God was on the hill, she put her hands round his feet; and Gehazi came near with the purpose of pushing her away; but the man of God said, Let her be, for her soul is bitter in her; and the Lord has kept it secret from me, and has not given me word of it.

bbe@2Kings:4:31 @And Gehazi went on before them and put the stick on the child's face; but there was no voice, and no one gave attention. So he went back, and meeting him gave him the news, saying, The child is not awake.

bbe@2Kings:4:38 @And Elisha went back to Gilgal, now there was very little food in the land; and the sons of the prophets were seated before him. And he said to his servant, Put the great pot on the fire, and make soup for the sons of the prophets.

bbe@2Kings:4:39 @And one went out into the field to get green plants and saw a vine of the field, and pulling off the fruit of it till the fold of his robe was full, he came back and put the fruit, cut up small, into the pot of soup, having no idea what it was.

bbe@2Kings:4:41 @But he said, Get some meal. And he put it into the pot, and said, Now give it to the people so that they may have food. And there was nothing bad in the pot.

bbe@2Kings:4:44 @So he put it before them, and they had a meal and there was more than enough, as the Lord had said.

bbe@2Kings:5:1 @Now Naaman, chief of the army of the king of Aram, was a man of high position with his master, and greatly respected, because by him the Lord had given salvation to Aram; but he was a leper.

bbe@2Kings:5:7 @But the king of Israel, after reading the letter, was greatly troubled and said, Am I God, to give death and life? why does this man send a leper to me to be made well? is it not clear that he is looking for a cause of war?

bbe@2Kings:5:10 @And Elisha sent a servant to him, saying, Go to Jordan, and after washing seven times in its waters your flesh will be well again and you will be clean.

bbe@2Kings:5:11 @But Naaman was angry and went away and said, I had the idea that he would come out to see such an important person as I am, and make prayer to the Lord his God, and with a wave of his hand over the place make the leper well.

bbe@2Kings:5:12 @Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not be washed in them and become clean? So turning, he went away in wrath

bbe@2Kings:5:13 @Then his servants came to him and said, If the prophet had given you orders to do some great thing, would you not have done it? how much more then, when he says to you, Be washed and become clean?

bbe@2Kings:5:14 @Then he went down seven times into the waters of Jordan, as the man of God had said; and his flesh became like the flesh of a little child again, and he was clean.

bbe@2Kings:6:8 @At that time the king of Aram was making war against Israel; and he had a meeting with the chiefs of his army and said, I will be waiting in secret in some named place.

bbe@2Kings:6:10 @So the king of Israel sent to the place where the man of God had said there was danger, and kept clear of it more than once.

bbe@2Kings:6:11 @And at this, the mind of the king of Aram was greatly troubled, and he sent for his servants and said to them, Will you not make clear to me which of us is helping the king of Israel?

bbe@2Kings:6:13 @Then he said, Go and see where he is, so that I may send and get him. And news came to him that he was in Dothan.

bbe@2Kings:6:17 @Then Elisha made a prayer to the Lord, saying, Lord, let his eyes be open so that he may see. And the Lord made the young man's eyes open; and he saw that all the mountain was full of horses and carriages of fire round Elisha.

bbe@2Kings:6:25 @And they became very short of food in Samaria; for they kept it shut in till the price of an ass's head was eighty shekels of silver, and a small measure of doves' droppings was five shekels of silver.

bbe@2Kings:6:26 @And when the king of Israel was going by on the wall, a woman came crying out to him, and said, Help! my lord king.

bbe@2Kings:6:30 @Then the king, hearing what the woman said, took his robes in his hands, violently parting them; and, while he was walking on the wall, the people, looking, saw that under his robe he had haircloth on his flesh.

bbe@2Kings:6:32 @But Elisha was in his house, and the responsible men were seated there with him; and before the king got there, Elisha said to those who were with him, Do you see how this cruel and violent man has sent to take away my life?

bbe@2Kings:6:33 @While he was still talking to them, the king came down and said, This evil is from the Lord; why am I to go on waiting any longer for the Lord?

bbe@2Kings:7:2 @Then the captain whose arm was supporting the king said to the man of God, Even if the Lord made windows in heaven, would such a thing be possible? And he said, Your eyes will see it, but you will not have a taste of the food.

bbe@2Kings:7:5 @So in the half light they got up to go to the tents of Aram; but when they came to the outer line of tents, there was no one there.

bbe@2Kings:7:10 @So they came in, and, crying out to the door-keepers of the town, they gave them the news, saying, We came to the tents of the Aramaeans, and there was no one there and no voice of man, only the horses and the asses in their places, and the tents as they were.

bbe@2Kings:7:15 @And they went after them as far as Jordan; and all the road was covered with clothing and vessels dropped by the Aramaeans in their flight. So those who were sent went back and gave the news to the king.

bbe@2Kings:7:17 @And the king gave authority to that captain, on whose arm he was supported, to have control over the doorway into the town; but he was crushed to death there under the feet of the people, as the man of God had said when the king went down to him.

bbe@2Kings:7:20 @And such was his fate; for he was crushed to death under the feet of the people, in the doorway into the town.

bbe@2Kings:8:4 @Now the king was talking with Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, saying, Now, give me an account of all the great things Elisha has done.

bbe@2Kings:8:5 @And while he was giving the king the story of how Elisha had given life to the dead, the woman whose son had come back to life came to the king with a request for her house and her land.

bbe@2Kings:8:7 @And Elisha came to Damascus; and Ben-hadad, king of Aram, was ill; and they said to him, The man of God has come.

bbe@2Kings:8:11 @And he kept his eyes fixed on him till he was shamed, and the man of God was overcome with weeping.

bbe@2Kings:8:14 @Then he went away from Elisha and came in to his master, who said to him, What did Elisha say to you? And his answer was, He said that you would certainly get well.

bbe@2Kings:8:17 @He was thirty-two years old when he became king; and he was ruling in Jerusalem for eight years.

bbe@2Kings:8:18 @He went in the ways of the kings of Israel, as the family of Ahab did: for the daughter of Ahab was his wife; and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord

bbe@2Kings:8:19 @But it was not the Lord's purpose to send destruction on Judah, because of David his servant, to whom he had given his word that he would have a light for ever.

bbe@2Kings:8:24 @And Joram went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David: and Ahaziah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:8:25 @In the twelfth year that Joram, the son of Ahab, was king of Israel, Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, became king;

bbe@2Kings:8:26 @Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri, king of Israel.

bbe@2Kings:8:27 @He went in the ways of the family of Ahab, and did evil in the eyes of the Lord as the family of Ahab did, for he was a son-in-law of the family of Ahab.

bbe@2Kings:8:28 @He went with Joram, the son of Ahab, to make war on Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead: and Joram was wounded by the Aramaeans.

bbe@2Kings:8:29 @So King Joram went back to Jezreel to get well from the wounds which the bowmen had given him at Ramah, when he was fighting against Hazael, king of Aram. And Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to see Joram, the son of Ahab, in Jezreel, because he was ill.

bbe@2Kings:9:15 @But King Joram had gone back to Jezreel to get well from the wounds which the Aramaeans had given him when he was fighting against Hazael, king of Aram.) And Jehu said, If this is your purpose, then let no one get away and go out of the town to give news of it in Jezreel.

bbe@2Kings:9:16 @So Jehu got into his carriage and went to Jezreel, for Joram was ill in bed there; and Ahaziah, king of Judah, had come down to see Joram.

bbe@2Kings:9:31 @And when Jehu was coming into the town, she said, Is all well, O Zimri, taker of your master's life?

bbe@2Kings:9:33 @And he said, Take her and put her out of the window. So they sent her down with force, and her blood went in a shower on the wall and on the horses; and she was crushed under their feet.

bbe@2Kings:9:35 @And they went out to put her body into the earth, but nothing of her was to be seen, only the bones of her head, and her feet, and parts of her hands.

bbe@2Kings:9:37 @And the dead body of Jezebel will be like waste dropped on the face of the earth in the heritage of Jezreel; so that they will not be able to say, This is Jezebel.

bbe@2Kings:10:12 @Then he got up and came to Samaria. And he was at the meeting-place of the keepers of sheep, by the way,

bbe@2Kings:10:18 @Then Jehu got all the people together and said to them, Ahab was Baal's servant in a small way, but Jehu will be his servant on a great scale.

bbe@2Kings:10:20 @And Jehu said, Let there be a special holy meeting for the worship of Baal. So a public statement was made.

bbe@2Kings:10:21 @And Jehu sent out through all Israel; and all the servants of Baal came, not one kept away. And they came into the house of Baal, so that it was full from end to end.

bbe@2Kings:10:25 @Then when the burned offering was ended, straight away Jehu said to the armed men and the captains, Go in and put them to death; let not one come out. So they put them to the sword; and, pulling the images to the earth, they went into the holy place of the house of Baal.

bbe@2Kings:10:27 @The altar of Baal was pulled down and the house of Baal was broken up and made an unclean place, as it is to this day.

bbe@2Kings:10:32 @In those days the Lord was angry first with Israel; and Hazael made attacks on all the land of Israel,

bbe@2Kings:10:35 @And Jehu went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:10:36 @And the time of Jehu's rule over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.

bbe@2Kings:11:1 @Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she had all the rest of the seed of the kingdom put to death.

bbe@2Kings:11:2 @But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, secretly took Joash, the son of Ahaziah, with the woman who took care of him, away from among the king's sons who were put to death, and put him in the bedroom; and they kept him safe from Athaliah, so that he was not put to death.

bbe@2Kings:11:3 @And for six years she kept him safe in the house of the Lord, while Athaliah was ruling over the land.

bbe@2Kings:11:16 @So they put their hands on her, and she went to the king's house by the doorway of the horses, and there she was put to death.

bbe@2Kings:11:20 @So all the people of the land were glad, and the town was quiet; and they had put Athaliah to death with the sword at the king's house.

bbe@2Kings:11:21 @And Jehoash was seven years old when he became king.

bbe@2Kings:12:1 @In the seventh year of Jehu's rule, Jehoash became king; and he was ruling for forty years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.

bbe@2Kings:12:2 @Jehoash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord all his days, because he was guided by the teaching of Jehoiada the priest.

bbe@2Kings:12:8 @So the priests made an agreement to take no more money from the people, and not to make good what was damaged in the house.

bbe@2Kings:12:9 @But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and making a hole in the cover of it, put it by the altar, on the right side when one comes into the house of the Lord; and the priests who kept the door put in it regularly all the money which was taken into the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:12:10 @And when they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king's scribe and the high priest came and put it in bags, noting the amount of all the money there was in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:12:11 @And the money which was measured out they gave regularly to those who were responsible for overseeing the work, and these gave it in payment to the woodworkers and the builders who were working on the house of the Lord,

bbe@2Kings:12:13 @But the money was not used for making silver cups or scissors or basins or wind-instruments or any vessels of gold or silver for the house of the Lord;

bbe@2Kings:12:14 @But it was all given to the workmen who were building up the house.

bbe@2Kings:12:15 @And they did not get any statement of accounts from the men to whom the money was given for the workmen, for they made use of it with good faith.

bbe@2Kings:12:16 @The money of the offerings for error and the sin-offerings was not taken into the house of the Lord; it was the priests'.

bbe@2Kings:12:17 @Then Hazael, king of Aram, went up against Gath and took it; and his purpose was to go up to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Kings:13:3 @So the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the power of Hazael, king of Aram, and into the power of Ben-hadad, the son of Hazael, again and again.

bbe@2Kings:13:4 @Then Jehoahaz made prayer to the Lord, and the Lord gave ear to him, for he saw how cruelly Israel was crushed by the king of Aram.

bbe@2Kings:13:6 @But still they did not give up the sin of Jeroboam, which he made Israel do, but went on with it; and there was an image of Asherah in Samaria.)

bbe@2Kings:13:9 @And Jehoahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria; and Joash his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:13:13 @And Joash went to rest with his fathers and Jeroboam took his place as king; and Joash was put into the earth in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

bbe@2Kings:13:14 @Now Elisha became ill with the disease which was the cause of his death: and Joash, king of Israel, came down to him, and weeping over him said, My father, my father, the war-carriages of Israel and its horsemen!

bbe@2Kings:13:23 @But the Lord was kind to them and had pity on them, caring for them, because of his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; he would not put them to destruction or send them away from before his face till now.

bbe@2Kings:14:26 @For the Lord saw how bitter was the trouble of Israel, and that everyone was cut off, he who was shut up and he who went free, and that Israel had no helper.

bbe@2Kings:14:27 @And the Lord had not said that the name of Israel was to be taken away from the earth; but he gave them a saviour in Jeroboam, the son of Joash.

bbe@2Kings:16:14 @And the brass altar, which was before the Lord, he took from the front of the house, from between his altar and the house of the Lord, and put it on the north side of his altar.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:3 @Then David overcame Hadadezer, king of Zobah, near Hamath, when he was going to make his power seen by the river Euphrates.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:14 @So David was king over all Israel, judging and giving right decisions for all his people.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:15 @And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the army; and Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, was keeper of the records.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:2 @And David said, I will be a friend to Hanun, the son of Nahash, because his father was a friend to me. So David sent men to him, to give him words of comfort on account of his father. And the servants of David came to Hanun, to the land of the children of Ammon, offering him comfort.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:17 @And word of this was given to David; and he got all Israel together and went over Jordan and came to Helam and put his forces in position against them. And when David's forces were in position against the Aramaeans, the fight was started.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:1 @Now in the spring, at the time when kings go out to war, Joab went out at the head of the armed forces and made waste all the land of the Ammonites and put his men in position before Rabbah, shutting it in. But David was still at Jerusalem. And Joab took Rabbah and made it waste.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:2 @And David took the crown of Milcom from off his head; its weight was a talent of gold and it had stones of great price in it; and it was put on David's head, and he took a great store of goods from the town.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:4 @Now after this there was war with the Philistines at Gezer; then Sibbecai the Hushathite put to death Sippai, one of the offspring of the Rephaim; and they were overcome.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:5 @And again there was war with the Philistines; and Elhanan, the son of Jair, put to death Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the stem of whose spear was like a cloth-worker's rod.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:6 @And again there was war at Gath, where there was a very tall man, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet; he was one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:4 @But the king's word was stronger than Joab's. So Joab went out and went through all Israel and came to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:6 @But Levi and Benjamin were not numbered among them, for Joab was disgusted with the king's order.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:7 @And God was not pleased with this thing; so he sent punishment on Israel.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:15 @And God sent an angel to Jerusalem for its destruction: and when he was about to do so, the Lord saw, and had regret for the evil, and said to the angel of destruction, It is enough; do no more. Now the angel of the Lord was by the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:17 @And David said to God, Was it not I who gave the order for the people to be numbered? It is I who have done the sin and the great wrong; but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand, O Lord God, be lifted up against me and against my family, but not against your people to send disease on them.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:18 @Then the angel of the Lord gave orders to Gad to say to David that he was to go and put up an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:20 @And Ornan, turning back, saw the angel, and his four sons who were with him went to a secret place. Now Ornan was crushing his grain.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:29 @For the House of the Lord, which Moses had made in the waste land, and the altar of burned offerings, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:30 @But David was not able to go before it to get directions from the Lord, so great was his fear of the sword of the angel of the Lord.

bbe@1Chronicles:22:7 @And David said to Solomon, My son, it was my desire to put up a house for the name of the Lord my God.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:1 @Now David was old and full of days; and he made his son Solomon king over Israel.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:3 @And the Levites, all those of thirty years old and over, were numbered; and the number of them, by heads, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:11 @Jahath was the chief and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah had only a small number of sons, so they were grouped together as one family.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:13 @The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was made separate and holy, he and his sons for ever, for the care of the most holy things and the burning of offerings before the Lord, to do his work and give blessings in his name for ever.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:27 @So among the last acts of David was the numbering of the sons of Levi, from twenty years old and over.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:28 @Their place was by the side of the sons of Aaron in all the work of the house of the Lord, in the open spaces and in the rooms, in the making clean of all the holy things, in doing all the work of the house of the Lord,

bbe@1Chronicles:23:29 @The holy bread was in their care, and the crushed grain for the meal offering, of unleavened cakes or meal cooked over the fire or in water; they had control of all sorts of weights and measures;

bbe@1Chronicles:24:6 @And Shemaiah, the son of Nethanel the scribe, who was a Levite, put down their names in writing, the king being present with the rulers, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, and the heads of families of the priests and the Levites; one family being taken for Eleazar and then one for Ithamar, and so on.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:7 @Now the first name to come out was that of Jehoiarib; the second Jedaiah,

bbe@1Chronicles:24:31 @Selection was made of these in the same way as of their brothers the sons of Aaron, David the king being present, with Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the heads of families of the priests and of the Levites; the families of the chief in the same way as those of his younger brother.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:1 @Further, David and the chiefs of the servants of the holy place made selection of certain of the sons of Asaph and of Heman and of Jeduthun for the work of prophets, to make melody with corded instruments and brass; and the number of the men for the work they had to do was:

bbe@1Chronicles:25:7 @And the number of them, with their brothers who were trained and expert in making melody to the Lord, was two hundred and eighty-eight.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:8 @And selection was made of them for their special work, all having equal chances, small as well as great, the teacher as the learner.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:9 @Now of the group of Asaph, the first name to come out was Joseph; the second Gedaliah; he and his brothers and sons were twelve?

bbe@1Chronicles:26:5 @Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peullethai the eighth; for the blessing of God was on him.

bbe@1Chronicles:26:14 @And the care of the door on the east came out for Shelemiah. Then the name of Zechariah his son, a man wise in discussion, came out, and the door on the north was given to him.

bbe@1Chronicles:27:24 @The numbering was started by Joab, the son of Zeruiah, but he did not go on to the end; and because of it, wrath came on Israel and the number was not recorded in the history of King David.

bbe@1Chronicles:27:25 @And Azmaveth, the son of Adiel, was controller of the king's property; Jonathan, the son of Uzziah, had control of all store-houses in country places and in the towns and little towns and strong places;

bbe@1Chronicles:27:27 @Shimei the Ramathite was responsible for the vine-gardens; Zabdi the Shiphmite was responsible for the produce of the vine-gardens and for all the stores of wine;

bbe@1Chronicles:27:29 @And Shitrai the Sharonite was responsible for the herds in the grass-lands of Sharon, and Shaphat, the son of Adlai, for those in the valleys;

bbe@1Chronicles:27:32 @Now Jonathan, David's father's brother, expert in discussion, and a man of good sense, was a scribe; and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni, had the care of the king's sons;

bbe@1Chronicles:27:33 @And Ahithophel was the king's expert in discussion and Hushai the Archite was the king's friend.

bbe@1Chronicles:27:34 @After Ahithophel was Jehoiada, the son of Benaiah, and Abiathar; and the captain of the king's army was Joab.

bbe@1Chronicles:28:2 @Then David the king got up and said, Give ear to me, my brothers and my people; it was my desire to put up a house, a resting-place for the ark of the Lord's agreement, and for the foot-rest of our God; and I had got material ready for the building of it.

bbe@1Chronicles:28:4 @Though the Lord, the God of Israel, took me out of all my father's family, to be king over Israel for ever, marking out Judah to be chief, and, of the people of Judah, my father's family; and among the sons of my father he was pleased to make me king over all Israel;

bbe@1Chronicles:28:15 @And gold by weight for the light-supports and the vessels for the lights, the weight of gold needed for every support and every vessel for lights; and for the silver light-supports, the weight of silver needed for every support and for the different vessels as every one was to be used;

bbe@1Chronicles:29:9 @Then the people were glad because their offerings were freely given, for with a true heart they freely gave what they had to the Lord; and David the king was full of joy.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:23 @So Solomon was put on the seat of the Lord as king in place of his father David, and everything went well for him; and all Israel was under his authority.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:26 @Now David, the son of Jesse, was king over all Israel.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:27 @For forty years he was ruling as king over Israel, seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:1 @And Solomon, the son of David, made himself strong in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and made him very great.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:3 @Then Solomon, and all the men of Israel with him, went to the high place at Gibeon, because the Tent of meeting of God, which Moses, the servant of the Lord, had made in the waste land, was there.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:5 @And the altar of brass which Bezalel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the Tent of the Lord; and Solomon and all the people went to give worship there.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:8 @And Solomon said to God, Great was your mercy to David my father, and you have made me king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:11 @And God said to Solomon, Because this was in your heart, and you did not make request for money, property, or honour, or for the destruction of your haters, or for long life; but you have made request for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, so that you may be the judge of my people over whom I have made you king:

bbe@2Chronicles:1:13 @So Solomon went back from the high place at Gibeon, from before the Tent of meeting, to Jerusalem; and he was king over Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:1 @Now it was Solomon's purpose to put up a house for the name of the Lord and a house for himself as king.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:14 @The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, whose father was a man of Tyre, an expert worker in gold and silver and brass and iron, in stone and wood, in purple and blue and fair linen and red, trained in the cutting of every sort of ornament and the invention of every sort of design; let him be given a place among your expert workmen and those of my lord, your father David.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:2 @The building was started in the second month in the fourth year of his rule.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:3 @And Solomon put the base of the house of God in position; by the older measure it was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:4 @And the covered way in front of the house was twenty cubits long, as wide as the house, and a hundred and twenty cubits high, all plated inside with the best gold.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:5 @And the greater house was roofed with cypress-wood, plated with the best gold and ornamented with designs of palm-trees and chains.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:6 @And the house was made beautiful with stones of great value, and the gold was gold of Parvaim.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:7 @All the house was plated with gold, the supports, the steps, the walls and the doors; and the walls were ornamented with designs of winged ones.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:8 @And he made the most holy place; it was twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits wide, like the greater house, and was plated all over with the best gold; six hundred talents were used for it.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:9 @And fifty shekels weight of gold was used for the nails. He had all the higher rooms plated with gold.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:2 @And he made the great water-vessel of metal, round in form, measuring ten cubits across from edge to edge; it was five cubits high and thirty cubits round.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:3 @And under it was a design of flowers all round it, ten to a cubit, circling the water-vessel in two lines; they were made from liquid metal at the same time as the water-vessel.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:4 @It was supported on twelve oxen, three facing to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east, the water-vessel resting on top of them; their back parts were all turned to the middle of it.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:5 @It was as thick as a man's open hand, and the edge of it was curved like the edge of a cup, like a lily flower; it would take three thousand baths.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:6 @And he made ten washing-vessels, putting five on the right side and five on the left; such things as were used in making the burned offering were washed in them; but the great water-vessel was to be used by the priests for washing themselves.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:14 @And he made the ten bases and the ten washing-vessels which were on the bases;

bbe@2Chronicles:4:16 @All the pots and the spades and the meat-hooks and their vessels, which Huram, who was as his father, made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of polished brass.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:18 @So Solomon made all these vessels, a very great store of them, and the weight of the brass used was not measured.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:19 @And Solomon made all the vessels used in the house of God, the gold altar and the tables on which the holy bread was placed,

bbe@2Chronicles:4:21 @The flowers and the vessels for the lights and the instruments used for them, were all of gold; it was the best gold.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:1 @So all the work which Solomon did for the house of the Lord was complete. And Solomon took the holy things which David his father had given, the silver and the gold and all the vessels, and put them in the store-houses of the house of God.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:8 @For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:10 @Nothing was in the ark but the two flat stones which Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made an agreement with the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:13 @And when the players on horns, and those who made melody in song, with one voice were sounding the praise and glory of the Lord; with loud voices and with wind instruments, and brass and corded instruments of music, praising the Lord and saying, He is good; his mercy is unchanging for ever: then the house was full of the cloud of the glory of the Lord,

bbe@2Chronicles:5:14 @So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud; for the house of God was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:1 @Then Solomon said, O Lord, to the sun you have given the heaven for a living-place, but your living-place was not seen by men,

bbe@2Chronicles:6:7 @Now it was in the heart of my father David to put up a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:1 @Now when Solomon's prayers were ended, fire came down from heaven, burning up all the offerings; and the house was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:2 @And the priests were not able to go into the house of the Lord, for the Lord's house was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:3 @And all the children of Israel were looking on when the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord was on the house; and they went down on their knees, with their faces to the earth, worshipping and praising the Lord, and saying, He is good; for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:7 @Then Solomon made holy the middle of the open square in front of the house of the Lord, offering the burned offerings there, and the fat of the peace-offerings; for there was not room on the brass altar which Solomon had made for all the burned offerings and the meal offerings and the fat.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:11 @So Solomon came to the end of building the house of the Lord and the king's house; and everything which it was in his mind to make in the house of the Lord and for himself had been well done.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:4 @And he put up the buildings of Tadmor in the waste land, and of all the store-towns in Hamath;

bbe@2Chronicles:8:6 @And of Baalath, and all the store-towns which Solomon had, and the towns where he kept his war-carriages and his horse men, and everything which it was his pleasure to put up in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land under his rule.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:14 @And he gave the divisions of the priests their places for their work, as ordered by his father David, and to the Levites he gave their work of praise and waiting on the priests, to do what was needed day by day; and he gave the door-keepers their places in turn at every door; for so David, the man of God, had given orders.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:16 @And all the work of Solomon was complete, from the day when he put the base of the Lord's house in position, till Solomon had come to the end of building the Lord's house.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:2 @And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which he did not make clear to her.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:4 @And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants and their robes, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:5 @And she said to the king, The account which was given to me in my country of your acts and your wisdom was true.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:6 @But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and truly, word was not given me of half your great wisdom; you are much greater than they said.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:8 @Praise be to the Lord your God whose pleasure it was to put you on the seat of his kingdom to be king for the Lord your God: because, in his love for Israel, it was the purpose of your God to make them strong for ever, he made you king over them, to be their judge in righteousness.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:13 @Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;

bbe@2Chronicles:9:19 @And twelve lions were placed on one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:22 @And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:26 @And he was ruler over all the kings from the River to the land of the Philistines, as far as the limit of Egypt.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:30 @Solomon was king over Israel in Jerusalem for forty years.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:31 @And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:2 @And when Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, had news of it, (for he was in Egypt where he had gone in flight from King Solomon,) he came back from Egypt.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:6 @Then King Rehoboam took the opinion of the old men who had been with Solomon his father when he was living, and said, In your opinion, what answer am I to give to this people?

bbe@2Chronicles:10:17 @But Rehoboam was still king over those of the children of Israel who were living in the towns of Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:18 @Then Rehoboam sent Adoniram, the overseer of the forced work; and he was stoned to death by all Israel. And King Rehoboam went quickly and got into his carriage to go in flight to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:19 @So Israel was turned away from the family of David to this day.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:6 @He was the builder of Beth-lehem and Etam and Tekoa

bbe@2Chronicles:11:21 @Maacah, the daughter of Absalom, was dearer to Rehoboam than all his wives and his servant-wives: (for he had eighteen wives and sixty servant-wives, and was the father of twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.)

bbe@2Chronicles:11:22 @Rehoboam made Abijah, the son of Maacah, chief and ruler among his brothers, for it was his purpose to make him king.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:1 @Now when Rehoboam's position as king had been made certain, and he was strong, he gave up the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:12 @And when he made himself low, the wrath of the Lord was turned back from him, and complete destruction did not come on him, for there was still some good in Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:13 @So King Rehoboam made himself strong in Jerusalem and was ruling there

bbe@2Chronicles:12:14 @And he did evil because his heart was not true to the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:16 @And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David; and Abijah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:2 @He was king in Jerusalem for three years; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:7 @And certain foolish and good-for-nothing men were joined with him, and made themselves strong against Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, when he was young and untested and not able to keep them back.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:1 @So Abijah went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David, and Asa his son became king in his place; in his time the land was quiet for ten years.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:2 @And Asa did what was good and right in the eyes of the Lord his God;

bbe@2Chronicles:14:5 @And he took away the high places and the sun-images from all the towns of Judah; and the kingdom was quiet under his rule.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:6 @He made walled towns in Judah, for the land was quiet and there were no wars in those years, because the Lord had given him rest.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:13 @And Asa and the people who were with him went after them as far as Gerar; and so great was the destruction among the Ethiopians that they were not able to get their army together again, for they were broken before the Lord and before his army; and they took away a great amount of their goods.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:5 @In those times there was no peace for him who went out or for him who came in, but great trouble was on all the people of the lands.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:9 @And he got together all Judah and Benjamin and those of Ephraim and Manasseh and Simeon who were living with them; for numbers of them came to him out of Israel when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:13 @And that anyone, small or great, man or woman, who was not true to the Lord, the God of Israel, would be put to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:15 @And all Judah was glad because of the oath, for they had taken it with all their heart, turning to the Lord with all their desire; and he was with them and gave them rest on every side.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:17 @But the high places were not taken away out of Israel; but still the heart of Asa was true to the Lord all his life.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:19 @And there was no more war till the thirty-fifth year of the rule of Asa

bbe@2Chronicles:16:1 @In the thirty-sixth year of the rule of Asa, Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:3 @Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:6 @Then King Asa, with all Judah, took away the stones and wood with which Baasha was building Ramah, and he made use of them for building Geba and Mizpah.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:8 @Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubim a very great army, with war-carriages and horsemen more than might be numbered? but because your faith was in the Lord, he gave them up into your hands.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:10 @Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in prison, burning with wrath against him because of this thing. And at the same time Asa was cruel to some of the people.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:3 @And the Lord was with Jehoshaphat, because he went in the early ways of his father, not turning to the Baals,

bbe@2Chronicles:17:6 @His heart was lifted up in the ways of the Lord; and he went so far as to take away the high places and the wood pillars out of Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:10 @And the fear of the Lord was on all the kingdoms of the lands round Judah, so that they made no wars against Jehoshaphat.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:1 @Now Jehoshaphat had great wealth and honour, and his son was married to Ahab's daughter.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:32 @Now when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:33 @And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:34 @But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king of Israel was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans till the evening; and by sundown he was dead.

bbe@2Chronicles:19:4 @And Jehoshaphat was living in Jerusalem; and he went out again among the people, from Beer-sheba to the hill-country of Ephraim, guiding them back to the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:16 @Go down against them tomorrow: see, they are coming up by the slope of Ziz; at the end of the valley, before the waste land of Jeruel, you will come face to face with them.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:20 @And early in the morning they got up and went out to the waste land of Tekoa: and when they were going out, Jehoshaphat took his station and said to them, Give ear to me, O Judah and you people of Jerusalem: have faith in the Lord your God and you will be safe; have faith in his prophets and all will go well for you.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:23 @And the children of Ammon and Moab made an attack on the people of Mount Seir with a view to their complete destruction; and when they had put an end to the people of Seir, everyman's hand was turned against his neighbour for his destruction.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:24 @And Judah came to the watchtower of the waste land, and looking in the direction of the army, they saw only dead bodies stretched on the earth; no living man was to be seen.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:25 @And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their goods from them, they saw beasts in great numbers, and wealth and clothing and things of value, more than they were able to take away; all this they took for themselves, and they were three days getting it away, there was so much.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:30 @So the kingdom of Jehoshaphat was quiet, for the Lord gave him rest on every side.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:31 @And Jehoshaphat was king over Judah: he was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling for twenty-five years in Jerusalem: his mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:1 @And Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David. And Jehoram his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:3 @And their father gave them much silver and gold and things of great value, as well as walled towns in Judah; but the kingdom he gave to Jehoram, because he was the oldest.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:5 @Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king; and he was ruling in Jerusalem for eight years.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:6 @He went in the ways of the kings of Israel, and did as the family of Ahab did, for the daughter of Ahab was his wife; and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:7 @But it was not the Lord's purpose to send destruction on the family of David, because of the agreement he had made with David, when he said he would give to him and to his sons a light for ever.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:10 @So Edom made themselves free from the rule of Judah, to this day: and at the same time Libnah made itself free from his rule; because he was turned away from the Lord, the God of his fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:18 @And after all this the Lord sent on him a disease of the stomach from which it was impossible for him to be made well.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:20 @He was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for eight years: and at his death he was not regretted; they put his body into the earth in the town of David, but not in the resting-place of the kings.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:2 @Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:3 @He went in the ways of the family of Ahab, for his mother was his teacher in evil-doing.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:5 @Acting on their suggestion, he went with Jehoram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, to make war on Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead: and Joram was wounded by the bowmen.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:6 @And he went back to Jezreel to get well from the wounds which they had given him at Ramah when he was fighting against Hazael, king of Aram. And Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to Jezreel to see Jehoram, the son of Ahab, because he was ill.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:7 @Now by the purpose of God, Ahaziah's journey to see Jehoram was the cause of his downfall: for when he came there, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu, the son of Nimshi, who had been marked out by the Lord for the destruction of the family of Ahab.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:8 @Now when Jehu was effecting the punishment of the family of Ahab, he came to the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers, the servants of Ahaziah, and put them to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:9 @And he went in search of Ahaziah; and when they came where he was, (for he was in a secret place in Samaria,) they took him to Jehu and put him to death; then they put his body to rest in the earth, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, whose heart was true to the Lord. So the family of Ahaziah had no power to keep the kingdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:10 @Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she had all the rest of the seed of the kingdom of Judah put to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:12 @And she kept him safe with her in the house of God for six years, while Athaliah was ruling the land.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:15 @So they put their hands on her, and she went to the king's house by the doorway of the king's horses; and there she was put to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:19 @And he put door-keepers at the doors of the Lord's house, to see that no one who was unclean in any way might come in.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:21 @So all the people of the land were glad and the town was quiet, for they had put Athaliah to death with the sword.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:1 @Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he was ruling for forty years in Jerusalem: his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:2 @And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord as long as Jehoiada the priest was living.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:9 @And an order was sent out through all Judah and Jerusalem that payment was to be made to the Lord of the tax which Moses, the servant of God, had put on Israel in the waste land.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:11 @So when the chest was taken to the king's servants by the Levites, and they saw that there was much money in it, the king's scribe and the chief priest's servant took the money out, and put the chest back in its place. They did this day by day, and got together a great amount of money.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:13 @So the workmen did their work, making good what was damaged and building up the house of God till it was strong and beautiful again.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:14 @And when the work was done, they took the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada, and it was used for making the vessels for the house of the Lord, all the vessels needed for the offerings, the spoons and the vessels of gold and silver. And as long as Jehoiada was living, the regular burned offerings were offered in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:15 @But Jehoiada became old and full of days, and he came to his end; he was a hundred and thirty years old at the time of his death.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:21 @But when they had made a secret design against him, he was stoned with stones, by the king's order, in the outer square of the Lord's house.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:24 @For though the army of Aram was only a small one, the Lord gave a very great army into their hands, because they had given up the Lord, the God of their fathers. So they put into effect the punishment of Joash.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:25 @And when they had gone away from him, (for he was broken with disease,) his servants made a secret design against him because of the blood of the son of Jehoiada the priest, and they put him to death on his bed; and they put his body into the earth in the town of David, but not in the resting-place of the kings.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:1 @Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:2 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, but his heart was not completely true to the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:15 @And so the wrath of the Lord was moved against Amaziah, and he sent a prophet to him, who said, Why have you gone after the gods of the people who have not given their people salvation from your hands?

bbe@2Chronicles:25:16 @But while he was talking to him the king said to him, Have we made you one of the king's government? say no more, or it will be the cause of your death. Then the prophet gave up protesting, and said, It is clear to me that God's purpose is your destruction, because you have done this and have not given ear to my words.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:20 @But Amaziah gave no attention; and this was the purpose of God, so that he might give them up into the hands of Joash, because they had gone after the gods of Edom.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:22 @And Judah was overcome before Israel, and they went in flight, every man to his tent.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:1 @Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:2 @He was the builder of Eloth, which he got back for Judah after the death of the king.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:3 @Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for fifty-two years; his mother's name was Jechiliah of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:4 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Amaziah had done.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:5 @He gave himself to searching after God in the days of Zechariah, who made men wise in the fear of God; and as long as he was true to the Lord, God made things go well for him.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:10 @And he put up towers in the waste land and made places for storing water, for he had much cattle, in the low hills and in the table land; and he had farmers and vine-keepers in the mountains and in the fertile land, for he was a lover of farming.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:13 @And under their orders was a trained army of three hundred and seven thousand, five hundred, of great strength in war, helping the king against any who came against him.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:15 @And in Jerusalem he made machines, the invention of expert men, to be placed on the towers and angles of the walls for sending arrows and great stones. And his name was honoured far and wide; for he was greatly helped till he was strong.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:16 @But when he had become strong, his heart was lifted up in pride, causing his destruction; and he did evil against the Lord his God; for he went into the Temple of the Lord for the purpose of burning perfumes on the altar of perfumes.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:19 @Then Uzziah was angry; and he had in his hand a vessel for burning perfume; and while his wrath was bitter against the priests, the mark of the leper's disease came out on his brow, before the eyes of the priests in the house of the Lord by the altar of perfumes.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:21 @So King Uzziah was a leper till the day of his death, living separately in his private house; for he was cut off from the house of God; and Jotham his son was ruling over his house, judging the people of the land.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:1 @Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king; and he was ruling in Jerusalem for sixteen years; and his mother's name was Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:2 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Uzziah had done; but he did not go into the Temple of the Lord. And the people still went on in their evil ways.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:8 @He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for sixteen years.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:1 @Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for sixteen years; he did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord, like David his father:

bbe@2Chronicles:28:5 @So the Lord his God gave him up into the hands of the king of Aram; and they overcame him, and took away a great number of his people as prisoners to Damascus. Then he was given into the hands of the king of Israel, who sent great destruction on him.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:7 @And Zichri, a great fighting-man of Ephraim, put to death Maaseiah, the king's son, and Azrikam, the controller of his house, and Elkanah, who was second in authority to the king.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:9 @But a prophet of the Lord was there, named Oded; and he went out in front of the army which was coming into Samaria and said to them, Truly, because the Lord, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he gave them up into your hands, and you have put them to death in an outburst of wrath stretching up to heaven.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:20 @Then Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, came to him, but was a cause of trouble and not of strength to him.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:21 @For Ahaz took a part of the wealth from the house of the Lord, and from the house of the king and of the great men, and gave it to the king of Assyria; but it was no help to him.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:1 @Hezekiah became king when he was twenty-five years old; and he was king in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; and his mother's name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:2 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David had done.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:16 @And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the Lord to make it clean, and everything unclean which was to be seen in the Temple of the Lord they took out into the outer square of the Lord's house, and the Levites got it together and took it away to the stream Kidron.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:17 @On the first day of the first month the work of making the house holy was started, and on the eighth day they came to the covered way of the Lord; in eight days they made the Lord's house holy, and on the sixteenth day of the first month the work was done

bbe@2Chronicles:29:19 @And all the vessels which were turned out by King Ahaz in his sin while he was king, we have put in order and made holy, and now they are in their places before the altar of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:22 @So they put the oxen to death and their blood was given to the priests to be drained out against the altar; then they put the male sheep to death, draining out their blood against the altar, and they put the lambs to death, draining out their blood against the altar.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:25 @Then he put the Levites in their places in the house of the Lord, with brass and corded instruments of music as ordered by David and Gad, the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for the order was the Lord's, given by his prophets.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:27 @And Hezekiah gave the word for the burned offering to be offered on the altar. And when the burned offering was started, then the song of the Lord was started, with the blowing of horns and with all the instruments of David, king of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:28 @And all the people gave worship, to the sound of songs and the blowing of horns; and this went on till the burned offering was ended.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:32 @The number of burned offerings which the people took in was seventy oxen, a hundred male sheep, and two hundred lambs: all these were for burned offerings to the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:34 @There were not enough priests for the work of cutting up all the burned offerings; so their brothers the Levites gave them help till the work was done and the priests had made themselves holy: for the Levites were more upright in heart to make themselves holy than the priests.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:35 @And there was a great amount of burned offerings, with the fat of the peace-offerings and the drink offerings for every burned offering. So the work of the Lord's house was put in order.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:36 @And Hezekiah and all the people were full of joy, because God had made the people ready: for the thing was done suddenly.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:3 @It was not possible to keep it at that time, because not enough priests had made themselves holy, and the people had not come together in Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:4 @And the thing was right in the eyes of the king and all the people.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:5 @So it was ordered that word was to be sent out through all Israel, from Beer-sheba to Dan, that they were to come to keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel, at Jerusalem: because they had not kept it in great numbers in agreement with the law.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:16 @And they took their places in their right order, as it was ordered in the law of Moses, the man of God: the priests draining out on the altar the blood given them by the Levites.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:26 @So there was great joy in Jerusalem: for nothing like this had been seen in Jerusalem from the time of Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:1 @Now when all this was over, all the men of Israel who were present went out into the towns of Judah, causing the stone pillars to be broken up and the wood pillars to be cut down, pulling down the high places and the altars in all Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, till all were gone. Then all the children of Israel went back to their towns, every man to his property.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:4 @In addition, he gave orders to the people of Jerusalem to give to the priests and Levites that part which was theirs by right, so that they might be strong in keeping the law of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:5 @And when the order was made public, straight away the children of Israel gave, in great amounts, the first-fruits of their grain and wine and oil and honey, and of the produce of their fields; and they took in a tenth part of everything, a great store.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:7 @The first store of things was put down in the third month, and in the seventh month the masses were complete.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:11 @Then Hezekiah said that store-rooms were to be made ready in the house of the Lord; and this was done.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:12 @And in them they put all the offerings and the tenths and the holy things, keeping nothing back, and over them was Conaniah the Levite, with Shimei his brother second to him.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:16 @As well as to all the males, of three years old and over, listed by their families, who went into the house of the Lord to do what was needed day by day, for their special work with their divisions.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:20 @This Hezekiah did through all Judah; he did what was good and right and true before the Lord his God.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:5 @Then he took heart, building up the wall where it was broken down, and making its towers higher, and building another wall outside; and he made strong the Millo in the town of David, and got together a great store of all sorts of instruments of war.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:9 @After this, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, sent his servants to Jerusalem (at that time he was stationed with all his army in front of Lachish), to say to Hezekiah and all the men of Judah in Jerusalem,

bbe@2Chronicles:32:14 @Who was there among all the gods of those nations, which my fathers put to destruction, who was able to keep his people safe from my hands? and is it possible that your God will keep you safe from my hands?

bbe@2Chronicles:32:19 @Talking of the God of Jerusalem as if he was like the gods of the peoples of the earth, the work of men's hands.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:23 @And great numbers came to Jerusalem with offerings for the Lord, and things of great price for Hezekiah, king of Judah: so that he was honoured among all nations from that time

bbe@2Chronicles:32:24 @In those days Hezekiah was ill and near death; and he made prayer to the Lord, and the Lord in answer gave him a sign.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:25 @But Hezekiah did not do as had been done to him; for his heart was lifted up in pride; and so wrath came on him and on Judah and Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:30 @It was Hezekiah who had the higher spring of the water of Gihon stopped, and the water taken down on the west side of the town of David. In everything he undertook, Hezekiah did well.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:31 @However, in the business of the representatives sent by the rulers of Babylon to get news of the wonder which had taken place in the land, God gave up guiding him, testing him to see what was in his heart.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:1 @Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he was ruling for fifty-five years in Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:3 @For he put up again the high places which had been pulled down by his father Hezekiah; and he made altars for the Baals, and pillars of wood, and was a worshipper and servant of all the stars of heaven;

bbe@2Chronicles:33:13 @And made prayer to him; and in answer to his prayer God let him come back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh was certain that the Lord was God.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:21 @Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king; and he was ruling for two years in Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:22 @He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Manasseh his father had done; and Amon made offerings to all the images which his father Manasseh had made, and was their servant.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:1 @Josiah was eight years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for thirty-one years.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:2 @And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, walking in the ways of his father David, without turning to the right hand or to the left.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:3 @In the eighth year of his rule, while he was still young, his heart was first turned to the God of his father David; and in the twelfth year he undertook the clearing away of all the high places and the pillars and the images of wood and metal from Judah and Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:4 @He had the altars of the Baals broken down, while he himself was present; and the sun-images which were placed on high over them he had cut down; and the pillars of wood and the metal images he had broken up and crushed to dust, dropping the dust over the resting-places of the dead who had made offerings to them.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:6 @And in all the towns of Manasseh and Ephraim and Simeon as far as Naphtali, he made waste their houses round about.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:8 @Now in the eighteenth year of his rule, when the land and the house had been made clean, he sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah, the ruler of the town, and Joah, the son of Joahaz, the recorder, to make good what was damaged in the house of the Lord his God.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:10 @And they gave it to the overseers of the work of the Lord's house, and the overseers gave it to the workmen working in the house, for building it up and making good what was damaged;

bbe@2Chronicles:34:12 @And the men did the work well; and those who had authority over them were Jahath and Obadiah, Levites of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, who were to be responsible for seeing that the work was done; and others of the Levites, who were expert with instruments of music,

bbe@2Chronicles:34:17 @They have taken out all the money which was in the Lord's house and have given it to the overseers and to the workmen.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:22 @So Hilkiah, and those whom the king sent, went to Huldah the woman prophet, the wife of Shallum, the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, the keeper of the robes (now she was living in Jerusalem, in the second part of the town); and they had talk with her about this thing.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:27 @And your heart was soft, and you made yourself low before God, on hearing his words about this place and its people, and with weeping and signs of grief have made yourself low before me, I have given ear to you, says the Lord God.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:33 @Josiah took away all the disgusting things out of all the lands of the children of Israel, and made all who were in Israel servants of the Lord their God. And as long as he was living they were true to the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:10 @So everything was made ready and the priests took their places with the Levites in their divisions, as the king had said.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:11 @And they put the Passover lambs to death, the blood being drained out by the priests when it was given to them, and the Levites did the skinning.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:13 @And the Passover lamb was cooked over the fire, as it says in the law; and the holy offerings were cooked in pots and basins and vessels, and taken quickly to all the people.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:14 @And after that, they made ready for themselves and for the priests; for the priests, the sons of Aaron, were offering the burned offerings and the fat till night; so the Levites made ready what was needed for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:15 @And the sons of Asaph, the makers of melody, were in their places, as ordered by David and Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the king's seer; and the door-keepers were stationed at every door: there was no need for them to go away from their places, for their brothers the Levites made ready for them.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:16 @So everything needed for the worship of the Lord was made ready that same day, for the keeping of the Passover and the offering of burned offerings on the altar of the Lord, as King Josiah had given orders.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:19 @In the eighteenth year of the rule of Josiah this Passover was kept.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:24 @So his servants took him out of the line of war-carriages, and put him in his second carriage and took him to Jerusalem, where he came to his end, and they put his body in the resting-place of his fathers. And in all Judah and Jerusalem there was great weeping for Josiah.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:2 @Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:5 @Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for eleven years, and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord his God.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:9 @Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months and ten days, and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:11 @Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for eleven years.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:16 @But they put shame on the servants of God, making sport of his words and laughing at his prophets, till the wrath of God was moved against his people, till there was no help.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:19 @And the house of God was burned and the wall of Jerusalem broken down; all its great houses were burned with fire and all its beautiful vessels given up to destruction.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:21 @So that the words of the Lord, which he said by the mouth of Jeremiah, might come true, till the land had had pleasure in her Sabbaths; for as long as she was waste the land kept the Sabbath, till seventy years were complete.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:22 @Now in the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia, in order that the words which the Lord had said by the mouth of Jeremiah might come true, the spirit of Cyrus, king of Persia, was moved by the Lord, and he made a public statement and had it given out through all his kingdom and put in writing, saying,

bbe@Ezra:1:1 @Now in the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia, in order that the word of the Lord given by the mouth of Jeremiah might come true, the spirit of Cyrus, king of Persia, was moved by the Lord, so that he made a public statement through all his kingdom, and put it in writing, saying,

bbe@Ezra:1:6 @And all their neighbours gave them help with offerings of vessels of silver and gold and goods and beasts and things of great value, in addition to what was freely offered.

bbe@Ezra:2:59 @And these were the people who went up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer. But having no knowledge of their fathers' families or offspring, it was not certain that they were Israelites;

bbe@Ezra:2:61 @And of the children of the priests: the children of Habaiah, the children of Hakkoz, the children of Barzillai, who was married to one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and took their name.

bbe@Ezra:2:64 @The number of all the people together was forty-two thousand, three hundred and sixty,

bbe@Ezra:2:69 @Every one, as he was able, gave for the work sixty-one thousand darics of gold, five thousand pounds of silver and a hundred priests' robes.

bbe@Ezra:3:3 @They put the altar on its base; for fear was on them because of the people of the countries: and they made burned offerings on it to the Lord, even burned offerings morning and evening.

bbe@Ezra:3:4 @And they kept the feast of tents, as it is recorded, making the regular burned offerings every day by number, as it is ordered; for every day what was needed.

bbe@Ezra:3:8 @Now in the second year of their coming into the house of God in Jerusalem, in the second month, the work was taken in hand by Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all those who had come from the land where they were prisoners to Jerusalem: and they made the Levites, of twenty years old and over, responsible for overseeing the work of the house of the Lord.

bbe@Ezra:3:11 @And they gave praise to the Lord, answering one another in their songs and saying, For he is good, for his mercy to Israel is eternal. And all the people gave a great cry of joy, when they gave praise to the Lord, because the base of the Lord's house was put in place.

bbe@Ezra:3:12 @But a number of the priests and Levites and the heads of families, old men who had seen the first house, when the base of this house was put down before their eyes, were overcome with weeping; and a number were crying out with joy:

bbe@Ezra:3:13 @So that in the ears of the people the cry of joy was mixed with the sound of weeping; for the cries of the people were loud and came to the ears of those who were a long way off.

bbe@Ezra:4:9 @The letter was sent by Rehum, the chief ruler, and Shimshai the scribe and their friends; the Dinaites and the Apharsathchites, the Tarpelites, the Apharsites, the Archevites, the Babylonians, the Shushanchites, the Dehaites, the Elamites,

bbe@Ezra:4:15 @So that search may be made in the book of the records of your fathers: and you will see in the book of the records that this town has been uncontrolled, and a cause of trouble to kings and countries, and that there were outbursts against authority there in the past: for which reason the town was made waste.

bbe@Ezra:4:24 @So the work of the house of God at Jerusalem came to an end; so it was stopped, till the second year of the rule of Darius, king of Persia.

bbe@Ezra:5:5 @But the eye of their God was on the chiefs of the Jews, and they did not make them give up working till the question had been put before Darius and an answer had come by letter about it.

bbe@Ezra:5:11 @And they made answer to us, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we are building the house which was put up in times long past and was designed and made complete by a great king of Israel.

bbe@Ezra:5:12 @But when the God of heaven was moved to wrath by our fathers, he gave them up into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, the Chaldaean, who sent destruction on this house and took the people away into Babylon

bbe@Ezra:5:14 @And the gold and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the Temple which was in Jerusalem, and put into the house of his god in Babylon, these Cyrus the king took from the house of his god in Babylon, and gave to one named Sheshbazzar, whom he had made ruler;

bbe@Ezra:5:17 @So now, if it seems good to the king, let search be made in the king's store-house at Babylon, to see if it is true that an order was given by Cyrus the king for the building of this house of God at Jerusalem, and let the king send us word of his pleasure in connection with this business.

bbe@Ezra:6:1 @Then Darius the king gave an order and a search was made in the house of the records, where the things of value were stored up in Babylon.

bbe@Ezra:6:2 @And at Achmetha, in the great house of the king in the land of Media, they came across a roll, in which this statement was put on record:

bbe@Ezra:6:11 @And I have given orders that if anyone makes any change in this word, one of the supports is to be pulled out of his house, and he is to be lifted up and fixed to it; and his house is to be made waste for this;

bbe@Ezra:6:15 @And the building of this house was complete on the third day of the month Adar, in the sixth year of the rule of Darius the king.

bbe@Ezra:7:1 @Now after these things, when Artaxerxes was king of Persia, Ezra, the son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah,

bbe@Ezra:7:6 @This Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a scribe, expert in the law of Moses which the Lord, the God of Israel, had given: and the king, moved by the Lord his God, gave him whatever he made request for.

bbe@Ezra:7:28 @And has given mercy to me before the king and his government and before all the king's great captains. And I was made strong by the hand of the Lord my God which was on me, and I got together out of Israel chief men to go up with me.

bbe@Ezra:8:1 @Now these are the heads of families who were listed of those who went up with me from Babylon, when Artaxerxes was king.

bbe@Ezra:8:23 @So we went without food, requesting our God for this: and his ear was open to our prayer.

bbe@Ezra:8:31 @Then we went away from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem; and the hand of our God was on us, and he gave us salvation from our haters and those who were waiting to make an attack on us by the way.

bbe@Ezra:8:33 @And on the fourth day, the silver and the gold and the vessels were measured out by weight in the house of our God into the hands of Meremoth, the son of Uriah, the priest; and with him was Eleazar, the son of Phinehas; and with them were Jozabad, the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah, the son of Binnui, the Levites;

bbe@Ezra:8:34 @All was handed over by number and by weight: and the weight was put on record at that time.

bbe@Ezra:8:35 @And those who had been prisoners, who had come back from a strange land, made burned offerings to the God of Israel, twelve oxen for all Israel, ninety-six male sheep, seventy-seven lambs, twelve he-goats for a sin-offering: all this was a burned offering to the Lord.

bbe@Ezra:8:36 @And they gave the king's orders to the king's captains and the rulers across the river, and they gave the people and the house of God the help which was needed.

bbe@Ezra:9:4 @Then everyone who went in fear of the words of the God of Israel, because of the sin of those who had come back, came together to me; and I kept where I was, overcome with grief, till the evening offering.

bbe@Ezra:9:9 @For we are servants; but our God has not been turned away from us in our prison, but has had mercy on us before the eyes of the kings of Persia, to give us new strength to put up again the house of our God and to make fair its waste places, and to give us a wall in Judah and Jerusalem.

bbe@Ezra:9:14 @Are we again to go against your orders, taking wives from among the people who do these disgusting things? would you not be angry with us till our destruction was complete, till there was not one who got away safe?

bbe@Ezra:10:1 @Now while Ezra was making his prayer and his statement of wrongdoing, weeping and falling down before the house of God, a very great number of men and women and children out of Israel came together round him: for the people were weeping bitterly.

bbe@Ezra:10:6 @Then Ezra got up from before the house of God and went into the room of Jehohanan, the son of Eliashib; but when he came there, he took no food or drink, for he was sorrowing for the sin of those who had come back.

bbe@Ezra:10:9 @Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin came together to Jerusalem before three days were past; it was the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month; and all the people were seated in the wide square in front of the house of God, shaking with fear because of this business and because of the great rain

bbe@Nehemiah:1:1 @The history of Nehemiah, the son of Hacaliah. Now it came about, in the month Chislev, in the twentieth year, when I was in Shushan, the king's town,

bbe@Nehemiah:2:1 @And it came about in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, when wine was before him, that I took up the wine and gave it to the king. Now I had never before been sad when the king was present.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:3 @And said to the king, May the king be living for ever: is it not natural for my face to be sad, when the town, the place where the bodies of my fathers are at rest, has been made waste and its doorways burned with fire?

bbe@Nehemiah:2:6 @And the king said to me (the queen being seated by his side), How long will your journey take, and when will you come back? So the king was pleased to send me, and I gave him a fixed time.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:8 @And a letter to Asaph, the keeper of the king's park, so that he may give me wood to make boards for the doors of the tower of the house, and for the wall of the town, and for the house which is to be mine. And the king gave me this, for the hand of my God was on me.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:11 @So I came to Jerusalem and was there three days.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:12 @And in the night I got up, taking with me a small band of men; I said nothing to any man of what God had put into my heart to do for Jerusalem: and I had no beast with me but the one on which I was seated.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:13 @And I went out by night, through the doorway of the valley, and past the dragon's water-spring as far as the place where waste material was put, viewing the walls of Jerusalem which were broken down, and the doorways which had been burned with fire.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:14 @Then I went on to the door of the fountain and to the king's pool: but there was no room for my beast to get through.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:16 @And the chiefs had no knowledge of where I had been or what I was doing; and I had not then said anything to the Jews or to the priests or the great ones or the chiefs or the rest of those who were doing the work.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:17 @Then I said to them, You see what a bad condition we are in; how Jerusalem is a waste, and its doorways burned with fire: come, let us get to work, building up the wall of Jerusalem, so that we may no longer be put to shame.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:18 @Then I gave them an account of how the hand of my God was on me, helping me; and of the king's words which he had said to me. And they said, Let us get to work on the building. So they made their hands strong for the good work.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:4 @By their side Meremoth, the son of Uriah, the son of Hakkoz, was making good the walls. Then Meshullam, the son of Berechiah, the son of Meshezabel; and by him, Zadok, the son of Baana.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:8 @Near them was working Uzziel, the son of Harhaiah, the gold-worker. And by him was Hananiah, one of the perfume-makers, building up Jerusalem as far as the wide wall.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:9 @Near them was working Rephaiah, the son of Hur, the ruler of half Jerusalem.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:10 @By his side was Jedaiah, the son of Harumaph, opposite his house

bbe@Nehemiah:3:12 @Near them was Shallum, the son of Hallohesh, the ruler of half Jerusalem, with his daughters.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:13 @Hanun and the people of Zanoah were working on the doorway of the valley; they put it up and put up its doors, with their locks and rods, and a thousand cubits of wall as far as the doorway where the waste material was placed.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:14 @And Malchijah, the son of Rechab, the ruler of the division of Beth-haccherem, made good the doorway of the waste, building it up and putting up its doors, with their locks and rods.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:16 @By his side was working Nehemiah, the son of Azbuk, ruler of half the division of Beth-zur, as far as the place opposite the last resting-places of David's family, and the pool which was made and the house of the men of war.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:17 @Then came the Levites, Rehum, the son of Bani. By his side was working Hashabiah, ruler of half the division of Keilah, for his division.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:19 @And by his side was working Ezer, the son of Jeshua, the ruler of Mizpah, making good another part opposite the way up to the store of arms at the turning of the wall.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:20 @After him Baruch, the son of Zabbai, was hard at work on another part, from the turning of the wall to the door of the house of Eliashib, the chief priest.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:21 @After him Meremoth, the son of Uriah, the son of Hakkoz, was working on another part, from the door of the house of Eliashib as far as the end of his house.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:23 @After them came Benjamin and Hasshub, opposite their house. After them Azariah, the son of Maaseiah, the son of Ananiah, made good the wall by the house where he himself was living.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:24 @After him Binnui, the son of Henadad, was working on another part, from the house of Azariah as far as the turning of the wall and the angle.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:25 @Palal, the son of Uzai, made good the wall opposite the angle and the tower which comes out from the higher part of the king's house, by the open space of the watch. After him was Pedaiah, the son of Parosh.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:29 @After them Zadok, the son of Immer, was working opposite his house. And after him Shemaiah, the son of Shecaniah, the keeper of the east door.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:1 @Now, Sanballat, hearing that we were building the wall, was very angry, and in his wrath made sport of the Jews.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:3 @Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, Such is their building that if a fox goes up it, their stone wall will be broken down.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:4 @Give ear, O our God, for we are looked down on: let their words of shame be turned back on themselves, and let them be given up to wasting in a land where they are prisoners:

bbe@Nehemiah:4:5 @Let not their wrongdoing be covered or their sin washed away from before you: for they have made you angry before the builders.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:6 @So we went on building the wall; and all the wall was joined together half-way up: for the people were working hard.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:7 @But when it came to the ears of Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabians and the Ammonites and the Ashdodites, that the building of the walls of Jerusalem was going forward and the broken places were being made good, they were full of wrath;

bbe@Nehemiah:4:10 @And Judah said, The strength of the workmen is giving way, and there is much waste material; it is impossible for us to put up the wall

bbe@Nehemiah:4:18 @Every builder was working with his sword at his side. And by my side was a man for sounding the horn.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:1 @Then there was a great outcry from the people and their wives against their countrymen the Jews.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:6 @And on hearing their outcry and what they said I was very angry.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:14 @Now from the time when I was made ruler of the people in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year till the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes the king, for twelve years, I and my servants have never taken the food which was the right of the ruler.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:18 @Now the food made ready for one day was one ox and six fat sheep, as well as fowls; and once in ten days a store of all sorts of wine: but all the same, I did not take the food to which the ruler had a right, because the people were crushed under a hard yoke.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:1 @Now when word was given to Sanballat and Tobiah and to Geshem the Arabian and to the rest of our haters, that I had done the building of the wall and that there were no more broken places in it (though even then I had not put up the doors in the doorways);

bbe@Nehemiah:6:2 @Sanballat and Geshem sent to me saying, Come, let us have a meeting in one of the little towns in the lowland of Ono. But their purpose was to do me evil.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:10 @And I went to the house of Shemaiah, the son of Delaiah, the son of Mehetabel, who was shut up; and he said, Let us have a meeting in the house of God, inside the Temple, and let the doors be shut: for they will come to put you to death; truly, in the night they will come to put you to death.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:14 @Keep in mind, O my God, Tobiah and Sanballat and what they did, and Noadiah, the woman prophet, and the rest of the prophets whose purpose was to put fear into me

bbe@Nehemiah:6:15 @So the wall was complete on the twenty-fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty-two days.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:18 @For in Judah there were a number of people who had made an agreement by oath with him, because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah, the son of Arah; and his son Jehohanan had taken as his wife the daughter of Meshullam, the son of Berechiah.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:1 @Now when the building of the wall was complete and I had put up the doors, and the door-keepers and the music-makers and the Levites had been given their places,

bbe@Nehemiah:7:2 @I made my brother Hanani, and Hananiah, the ruler of the tower, responsible for the government of Jerusalem: for he was a man of good faith, fearing God more than most.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:4 @Now the town was wide and great: but the people in it were only a small number, and the houses had not been put up.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:61 @All these were the people who went up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but because they had no knowledge of their fathers' families or offspring, it was not certain if they were Israelites:

bbe@Nehemiah:7:63 @And of the priests: the children of Hobaiah, the children of Hakkoz, the children of Barzillai, who was married to one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and took their name.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:66 @The number of all the people together was forty-two thousand, three hundred and sixty;

bbe@Nehemiah:7:72 @And that which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand pounds of silver, and sixty-seven priests' robes.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:3 @He was reading it in the wide place in front of the water-doorway, from early morning till the middle of the day, in the hearing of all those men and women whose minds were able to take it in; and the ears of all the people were open to the book of the law.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:5 @And Ezra took the book, opening it before the eyes of all the people (for he was higher than the people); and when it was open, all the people got to their feet:

bbe@Nehemiah:8:9 @And Nehemiah, who was the Tirshatha, and Ezra, the priest and scribe, and the Levites who were the teachers of the people, said to all the people, This day is holy to the Lord your God; let there be no sorrow or weeping; for all the people were weeping on hearing the words of the law.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:14 @And they saw that it was recorded in the law that the Lord had given orders by Moses, that the children of Israel were to have tents for their living-places in the feast of the seventh month:

bbe@Nehemiah:8:17 @All the people who had been prisoners and had come back, made tents and were living in them: for from the time of Jeshua, the son of Nun, till that day, the children of Israel had not done so. And there was very great joy.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:18 @And day by day, from the first day till the last, he was reading from the book of the law of God

bbe@Nehemiah:9:8 @You saw that his heart was true to you, and made an agreement with him to give the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Jebusite and the Girgashite, even to give it to his seed, and you have done what you said; for righteousness is yours:

bbe@Nehemiah:9:11 @By you the sea was parted before them, so that they went through the sea on dry land; and those who went after them went down into the deep, like a stone into great waters.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:19 @Even then, in your great mercy, you did not give them up in the waste land: the pillar of cloud still went before them by day, guiding them on their way, and the pillar of fire by night, to give them light, and make clear the way they were to go.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:21 @Truly, for forty years you were their support in the waste land, and they were in need of nothing; their clothing did not get old or their feet become tired.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:24 @So the children went in and took the land, and you overcame before them the people of the land, the Canaanites, and gave them up into their hands, with their kings and the people of the land, so that they might do with them whatever it was their pleasure to do.

bbe@Nehemiah:10:29 @They were united with their brothers, their rulers, and put themselves under a curse and an oath, to keep their steps in the way of God's law, which was given by Moses, the servant of God, and to keep and do all the orders of the Lord, our Lord, and his decisions and his rules;

bbe@Nehemiah:11:3 @Now these are the chiefs of the divisions of the country who were living in Jerusalem: but in the towns of Judah everyone was living on his heritage in the towns, that is, Israel, the priests, the Levites, the Nethinim, and the children of Solomon's servants.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:9 @And Joel, the son of Zichri, was their overseer; and Judah, the son of Hassenuah, was second over the town.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:14 @And their brothers, men of war, a hundred and twenty-eight; and their overseer was Zabdiel, the son of Haggedolim.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:22 @And the overseer of the Levites at Jerusalem was Uzzi, the son of Bani, the son of Hashabiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Mica, of the sons of Asaph, the music-makers, who was over the business of the house of God.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:23 @For there was an order from the king about them and a regular amount for the music-makers, for their needs day by day.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:24 @And Pethahiah, the son of Meshezabel, of the sons of Zerah, the son of Judah, was the king's servant in everything to do with the people.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:8 @And the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who was over the music-makers, he and his brothers.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:10 @And Jeshua was the father of Joiakim, and Joiakim was the father of Eliashib, and Eliashib was the father of Joiada,

bbe@Nehemiah:12:11 @And Joiada was the father of Jonathan, and Jonathan was the father of Jaddua.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:22 @The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, were listed as heads of families; and the priests, when Darius the Persian was king.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:31 @Then I made the rulers of Judah come up on the wall, and I put in position two great bands of them who gave praise, walking in ordered lines; one went to the right on the wall, in the direction of the doorway where the waste was put;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:36 @And his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel and Judah, Hanani, with the music-instruments of David, the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was at their head;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:44 @And on that day certain men were put over the rooms where the things which had been given were stored, for the lifted offerings and the first-fruits and the tenths, and to take into them the amounts, from the fields of every town, fixed by the law for the priests and the Levites: for Judah was glad on account of the priests and the Levites who were in their places.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:45 @And they kept the watch of their God, and were responsible for making things clean, and so did the music-makers and the door-keepers, as it was ordered by David and Solomon his son.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:46 @For in the days of David and Asaph in the past, there was a master of the music, and songs of blessing and praise to God.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:47 @And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel and in the days of Nehemiah gave what was needed by the music-makers and the door-keepers day by day: and they made the offerings holy for the Levites; and the Levites did the same for the sons of Aaron.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:1 @On that day there was a reading from the book of Moses in the hearing of the people; and they saw that it said in the book that no Ammonite or Moabite might ever come into the meeting of God;

bbe@Nehemiah:13:2 @Because they did not give the children of Israel bread and water when they came to them, but got Balaam to put a curse on them: though the curse was turned into a blessing by our God.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:6 @But all this time I was not at Jerusalem: for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes, king of Babylon, I went to the king; and after some days, I got the king to let me go,

bbe@Nehemiah:13:7 @And I came to Jerusalem; and it was clear to me what evil Eliashib had done for Tobiah, in making ready for him a room in the buildings of the house of God.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:8 @And it was evil in my eyes: so I had all Tobiah's things put out of the room.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:10 @And I saw that the Levites had not been given what was needed for their support; so that the Levites and the music-makers, who did the work, had gone away, everyone to his field.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:13 @And I made controllers over the store-houses, Shelemiah the priest and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and with them was Hanan, the son of Zaccur the son of Mattaniah: they were taken to be true men and their business was the distribution of these things to their brothers.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:26 @Was it not in these things that Solomon, king of Israel, did wrong? among a number of nations there was no king like him, and he was dear to his God, and God made him king over all Israel: but even he was made to do evil by strange women.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:28 @And one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib, the chief priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite: so I sent him away from me.

bbe@Esther:1:1 @Now it came about in the days of Ahasuerus, (that Ahasuerus who was ruler of a hundred and twenty-seven divisions of the kingdom, from India as far as Ethiopia:)

bbe@Esther:1:2 @That in those days, when King Ahasuerus was ruling in Shushan, his strong town,

bbe@Esther:1:8 @And the drinking was in keeping with the law; no one was forced: for the king had given orders to all the chief servants of his house to do as was pleasing to every man.

bbe@Esther:1:10 @On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was glad with wine, he gave orders to Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven unsexed servants who were waiting before Ahasuerus the king,

bbe@Esther:1:11 @That Vashti the queen was to come before him, crowned with her crown, and let the people and the captains see her: for she was very beautiful.

bbe@Esther:1:12 @But when the servants gave her the king's order, Vashti the queen said she would not come: then the king was very angry, and his heart was burning with wrath.

bbe@Esther:1:13 @And the king said to the wise men, who had knowledge of the times, (for this was the king's way with all who were expert in law and in the giving of decisions:

bbe@Esther:1:22 @And sent letters to all the divisions of the kingdom, to every division in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in the language which was theirs, saying that every man was to be the ruler in his house, and that this order was to be given out in the language of his people.

bbe@Esther:2:4 @And let the girl who is pleasing to the king be queen in place of Vashti. And the king was pleased with this suggestion; and he did so.

bbe@Esther:2:5 @Now there was a certain Jew in Shushan named Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite;

bbe@Esther:2:7 @And he had been a father to Hadassah, that is Esther, the daughter of his father's brother: for she had no father or mother, and she was very beautiful; and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai took her for his daughter.

bbe@Esther:2:8 @So when the order made by the king was publicly given out, and a number of girls had been placed in the care of Hegai in the king's house in Shushan, Esther was taken into the king's house and put in the care of Hegai, the keeper of the women.

bbe@Esther:2:9 @And he was pleased with the girl and was kind to her; and he quickly gave her what was needed for making her clean, and the things which were hers by right, and seven servant-girls who were to be hers from the king's house: and he had her and her servant-girls moved to the best place in the women's part of the house.

bbe@Esther:2:11 @And every day Mordecai took his walk before the square of the women's house, to see how Esther was and what would be done to her.

bbe@Esther:2:12 @Now every girl, when her turn came, had to go in to King Ahasuerus, after undergoing, for a space of twelve months, what was ordered by the law for the women (for this was the time necessary for making them clean, that is, six months with oil of myrrh and six months with sweet perfumes and such things as are needed for making women clean):

bbe@Esther:2:13 @And in this way the girl went in to the king; whatever she had a desire for was given to her to take with her from the women's house into the house of the king.

bbe@Esther:2:15 @Now when the time came for Esther, the daughter of Abihail, his father's brother, whom Mordecai had taken as his daughter, to go in to the king, she made request for nothing but what Hegai, the king's servant and keeper of the women, had given her. And Esther was looked on kindly by all who saw her.

bbe@Esther:2:16 @So Esther was taken in to King Ahasuerus in his house in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his rule.

bbe@Esther:2:17 @And Esther was more pleasing to the king than all the women, and to his eyes she was fairer and more full of grace than all the other virgins: so he put his crown on her head and made her queen in place of Vashti.

bbe@Esther:2:20 @Esther had still said nothing of her family or her people, as Mordecai had given her orders; for Esther did what Mordecai said, as when she was living with him.

bbe@Esther:2:21 @In those days, while Mordecai was seated at the king's doorway, two of the king's servants, Bigthan and Teresh, keepers of the door, being angry, were looking for a chance to make an attack on King Ahasuerus.

bbe@Esther:2:23 @And when the thing had been looked into, it was seen to be true, and the two of them were put to death by hanging on a tree: and it was put down in the records before the king.

bbe@Esther:3:1 @After these things, by the order of the king, Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, was lifted up and given a position of honour and a higher place than all the other captains who were with him.

bbe@Esther:3:4 @Now when they had said this to him day after day and he gave no attention, they let Haman have news of it, to see if Mordecai's behaviour would be overlooked: for he had said to them that he was a Jew.

bbe@Esther:3:5 @And when Haman saw that Mordecai did not go down before him and give him honour, Haman was full of wrath.

bbe@Esther:3:6 @But it was not enough for him to make an attack on Mordecai only; for they had made clear to him who Mordecai's people were; so Haman made it his purpose to put an end to all the Jews, even Mordecai's people, through all the kingdom of Ahasuerus.

bbe@Esther:3:12 @Then on the thirteenth day of the first month, the king's scribes were sent for, and they put in writing Haman's orders to all the king's captains and the rulers of every division of his kingdom and the chiefs of every people: for every division of the kingdom in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in the language which was theirs; it was signed in the name of King Ahasuerus and stamped with the king's ring.

bbe@Esther:3:14 @A copy of the writing, to be made public in every part of the kingdom, was sent out to all the peoples, so that they might be ready when that day came.

bbe@Esther:3:15 @The runners went out quickly by the king's order, and a public statement was made in Shushan: and the king and Haman took wine together: but the town of Shushan was troubled.

bbe@Esther:4:1 @Now when Mordecai saw what was done, pulling off his robe, he put on haircloth, with dust on his head, and went out into the middle of the town, crying out with a loud and bitter cry.

bbe@Esther:4:3 @And in every part of the kingdom, wherever the king's word and his order came, there was great sorrow among the Jews, and weeping and crying and going without food; and numbers of them were stretched on the earth covered with dust and haircloth.

bbe@Esther:4:4 @And Esther's women and her servants came and gave her word of it. Then great was the grief of the queen: and she sent robes for Mordecai, so that his clothing of haircloth might be taken off; but he would not have them.

bbe@Esther:4:5 @Then Esther sent for Hathach, one of the king's unsexed servants whom he had given her for waiting on her, and she gave him orders to go to Mordecai and see what this was and why it was.

bbe@Esther:4:8 @And he gave him the copy of the order which had been given out in Shushan for their destruction, ordering him to let Esther see it, and to make it clear to her; and to say to her that she was to go in to the king, requesting his mercy, and making prayer for her people.

bbe@Esther:5:1 @Now on the third day, Esther put on her queen's robes, and took her place in the inner room of the king's house, facing the king's house: and the king was seated on his high seat in the king's house, facing the doorway of the house.

bbe@Esther:5:9 @Then on that day Haman went out full of joy and glad in heart; but when he saw Mordecai in the king's doorway, and he did not get to his feet or give any sign of fear before him, Haman was full of wrath against Mordecai.

bbe@Esther:5:14 @Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, Let a pillar, fifty cubits high, be made ready for hanging him, and in the morning get the king to give orders for the hanging of Mordecai: then you will be able to go to the feast with the king with a glad heart. And Haman was pleased with the suggestion, and he had the pillar made.

bbe@Esther:6:1 @That night the king was unable to get any sleep; and he sent for the books of the records; and while some one was reading them to the king,

bbe@Esther:6:2 @It came out that it was recorded in the book how Mordecai had given word of the designs of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's servants, keepers of the door, by whom an attack on the king had been designed.

bbe@Esther:7:6 @And Esther said, Our hater and attacker is this evil Haman. Then Haman was full of fear before the king and the queen.

bbe@Esther:7:7 @And the king in his wrath got up from the feast and went into the garden: and Haman got to his feet to make a prayer for his life to Esther the queen: for he saw that the king's purpose was evil against him.

bbe@Esther:7:8 @Then the king came back from the garden into the room where they had been drinking; and Haman was stretched out on the seat where Esther was. Then the king said, Is he taking the queen by force before my eyes in my house? And while the words were on the king's lips, they put a cloth over Haman's face.

bbe@Esther:7:10 @So Haman was put to death by hanging him on the pillar he had made for Mordecai. Then the king's wrath became less.

bbe@Esther:8:1 @That day the king gave all the family of Haman, the hater of the Jews, to Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had made clear what he was to her.

bbe@Esther:8:9 @Then at that time, on the twenty-third day of the third month, which is the month Sivan, the king's scribes were sent for; and everything ordered by Mordecai was put in writing and sent to the Jews and the captains and the rulers and the chiefs of all the divisions of the kingdom from India to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven divisions, to every division in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in their language, and to the Jews in their writing and their language.

bbe@Esther:8:13 @A copy of the writing, to be made public as an order in every division of the kingdom, was given out to all the peoples, so that the Jews might be ready when that day came to give punishment to their haters.

bbe@Esther:8:14 @So the men went out on the quick-running horses used on the king's business, wasting no time and forced on by the king's order; and the order was given out in Shushan, the king's town.

bbe@Esther:9:4 @For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and word of him went out through every part of the kingdom: for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.

bbe@Esther:9:11 @On that day the number of those who had been put to death in the town of Shushan was given to the king.

bbe@Esther:9:14 @And the king said that this was to be done, and the order was given out in Shushan, and the hanging of Haman's ten sons was effected.

bbe@Esther:9:22 @As days on which the Jews had rest from their haters, and the month which for them was turned from sorrow to joy, and from weeping to a good day: and that they were to keep them as days of feasting and joy, of sending offerings to one another and good things to the poor.

bbe@Esther:9:25 @But when the business was put before the king, he gave orders by letters that the evil design which he had made against the Jews was to be turned against himself; and that he and his sons were to be put to death by hanging.

bbe@Esther:9:32 @The order given by Esther gave the force of law to the rules about the Purim; and it was recorded in the book.

bbe@Esther:10:3 @For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and respected by the body of his countrymen; working for the good of his people, and saying words of peace to all his seed.

bbe@Job:1:1 @There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. He was without sin and upright, fearing God and keeping himself far from evil.
