nasb@Joshua:0:17" @Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so we will obey you; only may the LORD your God be with you as He was with Moses.

nasb@Joshua:1:1 @Then Joshua the son of Nun sent two men as spies secretly from Shittim, saying, "Go, view the land, especially Jericho." So they went and came into the house of a harlot whose name was Rahab, and lodged there.

nasb@Joshua:1:2 @It was told the king of Jericho, saying, "Behold, men from the sons of Israel have come here tonight to search out the land."

nasb@Joshua:1:5" @It came about when it was time to shut the gate at dark, that the men went out; I do not know where the men went. Pursue them quickly, for you will overtake them."

nasb@Joshua:1:15 @Then she let them down by a rope through the window, for her house was on the city wall, so that she was living on the wall.

nasb@Joshua:2:10 @For the priests who carried the ark were standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything was completed that the LORD had commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua. And the people hurried and crossed;

nasb@Joshua:3:1 @Now it came about when all the kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan to the west, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard how the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the sons of Israel until they had crossed, that their hearts melted, and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the sons of Israel.

nasb@Joshua:3:13 @Now it came about when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man was standing opposite him with his sword drawn in his hand, and Joshua went to him and said to him, "Are you for us or for our adversaries?"

nasb@Joshua:4:1 @Now Jericho was tightly shut because of the sons of Israel; no one went out and no one came in.

nasb@Joshua:4:8 @And it was so, that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests carrying the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the LORD went forward and blew the trumpets; and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.

nasb@Joshua:4:24 @They burned the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only the silver and gold, and articles of bronze and iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.

nasb@Joshua:4:27 @So the LORD was with Joshua, and his fame was in all the land.

nasb@Joshua:5:16 @So Joshua arose early in the morning and brought Israel near by tribes, and the tribe of Judah was taken.

nasb@Joshua:5:17 @He brought the family of Judah near, and he took the family of the Zerahites; and he brought the family of the Zerahites near man by man, and Zabdi was taken.

nasb@Joshua:5:18 @He brought his household near man by man; and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, was taken.

nasb@Joshua:5:22 @So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent; and behold, it was concealed in his tent with the silver underneath it.

nasb@Joshua:5:11 @Then all the people of war who were with him went up and drew near and arrived in front of the city, and camped on the north side of Ai. Now there was a valley between him and Ai.

nasb@Joshua:5:13 @So they stationed the people, all the army that was on the north side of the city, and its rear guard on the west side of the city, and Joshua spent that night in the midst of the valley.

nasb@Joshua:5:14 @It came about when the king of Ai saw it, that the men of the city hurried and rose up early and went out to meet Israel in battle, he and all his people at the appointed place before the desert plain. But he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.

nasb@Joshua:5:17 @So not a man was left in Ai or Bethel who had not gone out after Israel, and they left the city unguarded and pursued Israel.

nasb@Joshua:5:18 @Then the LORD said to Joshua, " Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai, for I will give it into your hand." So Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city.

nasb@Joshua:5:22 @The others came out from the city to encounter them, so that they were trapped in the midst of Israel, some on this side and some on that side; and they slew them until no one was left of those who survived or escaped.

nasb@Joshua:5:35 @There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded which Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel with the women and the little ones and the strangers who were living among them.

nasb@Joshua:6:5 @and worn-out and patched sandals on their feet, and worn-out clothes on themselves; and all the bread of their provision was dry and had become crumbled.

nasb@Joshua:6:10 @and all that He did to the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon and to Og king of Bashan who was at Ashtaroth.

nasb@Joshua:6:12" @This our bread was warm when we took it for our provisions out of our houses on the day that we left to come to you; but now behold, it is dry and has become crumbled.

nasb@Joshua:6:24 @So they answered Joshua and said, " Because it was certainly told your servants that the LORD your God had commanded His servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land before you; therefore we feared greatly for our lives because of you, and have done this thing.

nasb@Joshua:7:2 @that he feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.

nasb@Joshua:7:14 @There was no day like that before it or after it, when the LORD listened to the voice of a man; for the LORD fought for Israel.

nasb@Joshua:7:17 @It was told Joshua, saying, "The five kings have been found hidden in the cave at Makkedah."

nasb@Joshua:7:28 @Now Joshua captured Makkedah on that day, and struck it and its king with the edge of the sword; he utterly destroyed it and every person who was in it. He left no survivor. Thus he did to the king of Makkedah just as he had done to the king of Jericho.

nasb@Joshua:7:30 @The LORD gave it also with its king into the hands of Israel, and he struck it and every person who was in it with the edge of the sword. He left no survivor in it. Thus he did to its king just as he had done to the king of Jericho.

nasb@Joshua:7:32 @The LORD gave Lachish into the hands of Israel; and he captured it on the second day, and struck it and every person who was in it with the edge of the sword, according to all that he had done to Libnah.

nasb@Joshua:7:35 @They captured it on that day and struck it with the edge of the sword; and he utterly destroyed that day every person who was in it, according to all that he had done to Lachish.

nasb@Joshua:7:37 @They captured it and struck it and its king and all its cities and all the persons who were in it with the edge of the sword. He left no survivor, according to all that he had done to Eglon. And he utterly destroyed it and every person who was in it.

nasb@Joshua:7:39 @He captured it and its king and all its cities, and they struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed every person who was in it. He left no survivor. Just as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir and its king, as he had also done to Libnah and its king.

nasb@Joshua:8:8 @The LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, so that they defeated them, and pursued them as far as Great Sidon and Misrephoth-maim and the valley of Mizpeh to the east; and they struck them until no survivor was left to them.

nasb@Joshua:8:10 @Then Joshua turned back at that time, and captured Hazor and struck its king with the sword; for Hazor formerly was the head of all these kingdoms.

nasb@Joshua:8:11 @They struck every person who was in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them; there was no one left who breathed. And he burned Hazor with fire.

nasb@Joshua:8:19 @There was not a city which made peace with the sons of Israel except the Hivites living in Gibeon; they took them all in battle.

nasb@Joshua:8:20 @For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, to meet Israel in battle in order that he might utterly destroy them, that they might receive no mercy, but that he might destroy them, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

nasb@Joshua:9:13 @Now Joshua was old and advanced in years when the LORD said to him, "You are old and advanced in years, and very much of the land remains to be possessed.

nasb@Joshua:9:12 @all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (he alone was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for Moses struck them and dispossessed them.

nasb@Joshua:9:16 @Their territory was from Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, with the city which is in the middle of the valley and all the plain by Medeba;

nasb@Joshua:9:23 @The border of the sons of Reuben was the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the sons of Reuben according to their families, the cities and their villages.

nasb@Joshua:9:25 @Their territory was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the sons of Ammon, as far as Aroer which is before Rabbah;

nasb@Joshua:9:29 @Moses also gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manasseh; and it was for the half-tribe of the sons of Manasseh according to their families.

nasb@Joshua:9:30 @Their territory was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities;

nasb@Joshua:10:7" @I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, and I brought word back to him as it was in my heart.

nasb@Joshua:10:11" @ I am still as strong today as I was in the day Moses sent me; as my strength was then, so my strength is now, for war and for going out and coming in.

nasb@Joshua:10:15 @Now the name of Hebron was formerly Kiriath-arba; for Arba was the greatest man among the Anakim. Then the land had rest from war.

nasb@Joshua:11:2 @Their south border was from the lower end of the Salt Sea, from the bay that turns to the south.

nasb@Joshua:11:5 @The east border was the Salt Sea, as far as the mouth of the Jordan. And the border of the north side was from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan.

nasb@Joshua:11:12 @The west border was at the Great Sea, even its coastline. This is the border around the sons of Judah according to their families.

nasb@Joshua:11:15 @Then he went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath-sepher.

nasb@Joshua:12:5 @Now this was the territory of the sons of Ephraim according to their families- the border of their inheritance eastward was Ataroth-addar, as far as upper Beth-horon.

nasb@Joshua:13:1 @Now this was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. To Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, were allotted Gilead and Bashan, because he was a man of war.

nasb@Joshua:13:2 @So the lot was made for the rest of the sons of Manasseh according to their families- for the sons of Abiezer and for the sons of Helek and for the sons of Asriel and for the sons of Shechem and for the sons of Hepher and for the sons of Shemida; these were the male descendants of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.

nasb@Joshua:13:7 @The border of Manasseh ran from Asher to Michmethath which was east of Shechem; then the border went southward to the inhabitants of En-tappuah.

nasb@Joshua:13:9 @The border went down to the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook (these cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh), and the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook and it ended at the sea.

nasb@Joshua:13:10 @The south side belonged to Ephraim and the north side to Manasseh, and the sea was their border; and they reached to Asher on the north and to Issachar on the east.

nasb@Joshua:14:1 @Then the whole congregation of the sons of Israel assembled themselves at Shiloh, and set up the tent of meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.

nasb@Joshua:14:12 @Their border on the north side was from the Jordan, then the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill country westward, and it ended at the wilderness of Beth-aven.

nasb@Joshua:14:14 @The border extended from there and turned round on the west side southward, from the hill which lies before Beth-horon southward; and it ended at Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim), a city of the sons of Judah. This was the west side.

nasb@Joshua:14:15 @Then the south side was from the edge of Kiriath-jearim, and the border went westward and went to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah.

nasb@Joshua:14:19 @The border continued to the side of Beth-hoglah northward; and the border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the south border.

nasb@Joshua:14:20 @Moreover, the Jordan was its border on the east side. This was the inheritance of the sons of Benjamin, according to their families and according to its borders all around.

nasb@Joshua:15:1 @Then the second lot fell to Simeon, to the tribe of the sons of Simeon according to their families, and their inheritance was in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Judah.

nasb@Joshua:15:8 @and all the villages which were around these cities as far as Baalath-beer, Ramah of the Negev. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Simeon according to their families.

nasb@Joshua:15:9 @The inheritance of the sons of Simeon was taken from the portion of the sons of Judah, for the share of the sons of Judah was too large for them; so the sons of Simeon received an inheritance in the midst of Judah's inheritance.

nasb@Joshua:15:10 @Now the third lot came up for the sons of Zebulun according to their families. And the territory of their inheritance was as far as Sarid.

nasb@Joshua:15:16 @This was the inheritance of the sons of Zebulun according to their families, these cities with their villages.

nasb@Joshua:15:18 @Their territory was to Jezreel and included Chesulloth and Shunem,

nasb@Joshua:15:23 @This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Issachar according to their families, the cities with their villages.

nasb@Joshua:15:25 @Their territory was Helkath and Hali and Beten and Achshaph,

nasb@Joshua:15:31 @This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Asher according to their families, these cities with their villages.

nasb@Joshua:15:33 @Their border was from Heleph, from the oak in Zaanannim and Adami-nekeb and Jabneel, as far as Lakkum, and it ended at the Jordan.

nasb@Joshua:15:39 @This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali according to their families, the cities with their villages.

nasb@Joshua:15:41 @The territory of their inheritance was Zorah and Eshtaol and Ir-shemesh,

nasb@Joshua:15:48 @This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Dan according to their families, these cities with their villages.

nasb@Joshua:16:10 @and they were for the sons of Aaron, one of the families of the Kohathites, of the sons of Levi, for the lot was theirs first.

nasb@Joshua:16:40 @All these were the cities of the sons of Merari according to their families, the rest of the families of the Levites; and their lot was twelve cities.

nasb@Joshua:16:42 @These cities each had its surrounding pasture lands; thus it was with all these cities.

nasb@Joshua:17:14 @and with him ten chiefs, one chief for each father's household from each of the tribes of Israel; and each one of them was the head of his father's household among the thousands of Israel.

nasb@Joshua:17:22" @The Mighty One, God, the LORD, the Mighty One, God, the LORD! He knows, and may Israel itself know. If it was in rebellion, or if in an unfaithful act against the LORD do not save us this day!

nasb@Joshua:18:1 @Now it came about after many days, when the LORD had given rest to Israel from all their enemies on every side, and Joshua was old, advanced in years,

nasb@Joshua:19:10 @'But I was not willing to listen to Balaam. So he had to bless you, and I delivered you from his hand.

nasb@Joshua:19:26 @And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a large stone and set it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuary of the LORD.

nasb@Joshua:19:33 @And Eleazar the son of Aaron died; and they buried him at Gibeah of Phinehas his son, which was given him in the hill country of Ephraim.

nasb@Judges:1:10 @So Judah went against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron (now the name of Hebron formerly was Kiriath-arba); and they struck Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai.

nasb@Judges:1:11 @Then from there he went against the inhabitants of Debir (now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath-sepher).

nasb@Judges:1:17 @Then Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they struck the Canaanites living in Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. So the name of the city was called Hormah.

nasb@Judges:1:19 @Now the LORD was with Judah, and they took possession of the hill country; but they could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley because they had iron chariots.

nasb@Judges:1:22 @Likewise the house of Joseph went up against Bethel, and the LORD was with them.

nasb@Judges:1:23 @The house of Joseph spied out Bethel ( now the name of the city was formerly Luz).

nasb@Judges:2:15 @Wherever they went, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had spoken and as the LORD had sworn to them, so that they were severely distressed.

nasb@Judges:2:18 @When the LORD raised up judges for them, the LORD was with the judge and delivered them from the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the LORD was moved to pity by their groaning because of those who oppressed and afflicted them.

nasb@Judges:3:7 @The sons of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgot the LORD their God and served the Baals and the Asheroth.

nasb@Judges:3:8 @Then the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, so that He sold them into the hands of Cushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia; and the sons of Israel served Cushan-rishathaim eight years.

nasb@Judges:3:17 @He presented the tribute to Eglon king of Moab. Now Eglon was a very fat man.

nasb@Judges:3:20 @Ehud came to him while he was sitting alone in his cool roof chamber. And Ehud said, "I have a message from God for you." And he arose from his seat.

nasb@Judges:3:27 @It came about when he had arrived, that he blew the trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim; and the sons of Israel went down with him from the hill country, and he was in front of them.

nasb@Judges:3:30 @So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land was undisturbed for eighty years.

nasb@Judges:4:2 @And the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor; and the commander of his army was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth-hagoyim.

nasb@Judges:4:4 @Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, was judging Israel at that time.

nasb@Judges:4:16 @But Barak pursued the chariots and the army as far as Harosheth-hagoyim, and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword; not even one was left.

nasb@Judges:4:17 @Now Sisera fled away on foot to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite, for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.

nasb@Judges:4:21 @But Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent peg and seized a hammer in her hand, and went secretly to him and drove the peg into his temple, and it went through into the ground; for he was sound asleep and exhausted. So he died.

nasb@Judges:4:22 @And behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him and said to him, "Come, and I will show you the man whom you are seeking." And he entered with her, and behold Sisera was lying dead with the tent peg in his temple.

nasb@Judges:4:8" @ New gods were chosen; Then war was in the gates. Not a shield or a spear was seen Among forty thousand in Israel.

nasb@Judges:4:15" @And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; As was Issachar, so was Barak; Into the valley they rushed at his heels; Among the divisions of Reuben There were great resolves of heart.

nasb@Judges:4:18" @ Zebulun was a people who despised their lives even to death, And Naphtali also, on the high places of the field.

nasb@Judges:4:31" @ Thus let all Your enemies perish, O LORD; But let those who love Him be like the rising of the sun in its might." And the land was undisturbed for forty years.

nasb@Judges:5:1 @Then the sons of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD gave them into the hands of Midian seven years.

nasb@Judges:5:3 @For it was when Israel had sown, that the Midianites would come up with the Amalekites and the sons of the east and go against them.

nasb@Judges:5:6 @So Israel was brought very low because of Midian, and the sons of Israel cried to the LORD.

nasb@Judges:5:8 @that the LORD sent a prophet to the sons of Israel, and he said to them, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'It was I who brought you up from Egypt and brought you out from the house of slavery.

nasb@Judges:5:11 @Then the angel of the LORD came and sat under the oak that was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite as his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press in order to save it from the Midianites.

nasb@Judges:5:21 @Then the angel of the LORD put out the end of the staff that was in his hand and touched the meat and the unleavened bread; and fire sprang up from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened bread. Then the angel of the LORD vanished from his sight.

nasb@Judges:5:22 @When Gideon saw that he was the angel of the LORD, he said, "Alas, O Lord GOD! For now I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face."

nasb@Judges:5:27 @Then Gideon took ten men of his servants and did as the LORD had spoken to him; and because he was too afraid of his father's household and the men of the city to do it by day, he did it by night.

nasb@Judges:5:28 @When the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was torn down, and the Asherah which was beside it was cut down, and the second bull was offered on the altar which had been built.

nasb@Judges:5:30 @Then the men of the city said to Joash, "Bring out your son, that he may die, for he has torn down the altar of Baal, and indeed, he has cut down the Asherah which was beside it."

nasb@Judges:5:38 @And it was so. When he arose early the next morning and squeezed the fleece, he drained the dew from the fleece, a bowl full of water.

nasb@Judges:5:40 @God did so that night; for it was dry only on the fleece, and dew was on all the ground.

nasb@Judges:6:1 @Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him, rose early and camped beside the spring of Harod; and the camp of Midian was on the north side of them by the hill of Moreh in the valley.

nasb@Judges:6:6 @Now the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was 300 men; but all the rest of the people kneeled to drink water.

nasb@Judges:6:8 @So the 300 men took the people's provisions and their trumpets into their hands. And Gideon sent all the other men of Israel, each to his tent, but retained the 300 men; and the camp of Midian was below him in the valley.

nasb@Judges:6:11 @and you will hear what they say; and afterward your hands will be strengthened that you may go down against the camp." So he went with Purah his servant down to the outposts of the army that was in the camp.

nasb@Judges:6:13 @When Gideon came, behold, a man was relating a dream to his friend. And he said, "Behold, I had a dream; a loaf of barley bread was tumbling into the camp of Midian, and it came to the tent and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down so that the tent lay flat."

nasb@Judges:7:3" @God has given the leaders of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb into your hands; and what was I able to do in comparison with you?" Then their anger toward him subsided when he said that.

nasb@Judges:7:11 @Gideon went up by the way of those who lived in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and attacked the camp when the camp was unsuspecting.

nasb@Judges:7:20 @So he said to Jether his firstborn, "Rise, kill them." But the youth did not draw his sword, for he was afraid, because he was still a youth.

nasb@Judges:7:26 @The weight of the gold earrings that he requested was 1,700 shekels of gold, besides the crescent ornaments and the pendants and the purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and besides the neck bands that were on their camels' necks.

nasb@Judges:7:28 @So Midian was subdued before the sons of Israel, and they did not lift up their heads anymore. And the land was undisturbed for forty years in the days of Gideon.

nasb@Judges:7:31 @His concubine who was in Shechem also bore him a son, and he named him Abimelech.

nasb@Judges:7:32 @And Gideon the son of Joash died at a ripe old age and was buried in the tomb of his father Joash, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

nasb@Judges:7:33 @Then it came about, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the sons of Israel again played the harlot with the Baals, and made Baal-berith their god.

nasb@Judges:7:5 @Then he went to his father's house at Ophrah and killed his brothers the sons of Jerubbaal, seventy men, on one stone. But Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left, for he hid himself.

nasb@Judges:7:6 @All the men of Shechem and all Beth-millo assembled together, and they went and made Abimelech king, by the oak of the pillar which was in Shechem.

nasb@Judges:7:25 @The men of Shechem set men in ambush against him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all who might pass by them along the road; and it was told to Abimelech.

nasb@Judges:7:42 @Now it came about the next day, that the people went out to the field, and it was told to Abimelech.

nasb@Judges:7:44 @Then Abimelech and the company who was with him dashed forward and stood in the entrance of the city gate; the other two companies then dashed against all who were in the field and slew them.

nasb@Judges:7:47 @It was told Abimelech that all the leaders of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.

nasb@Judges:7:51 @But there was a strong tower in the center of the city, and all the men and women with all the leaders of the city fled there and shut themselves in; and they went up on the roof of the tower.

nasb@Judges:7:55 @When the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, each departed to his home.

nasb@Judges:8:2 @He judged Israel twenty-three years. Then he died and was buried in Shamir.

nasb@Judges:8:5 @And Jair died and was buried in Kamon.

nasb@Judges:8:9 @The sons of Ammon crossed the Jordan to fight also against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim, so that Israel was greatly distressed.

nasb@Judges:9:1 @Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a valiant warrior, but he was the son of a harlot. And Gilead was the father of Jephthah.

nasb@Judges:9:18 @'Then they went through the wilderness and around the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and came to the east side of the land of Moab, and they camped beyond the Arnon; but they did not enter the territory of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab.

nasb@Judges:9:34 @When Jephthah came to his house at Mizpah, behold, his daughter was coming out to meet him with tambourines and with dancing. Now she was his one and only child; besides her he had no son or daughter.

nasb@Judges:10:7 @Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.

nasb@Judges:10:10 @Then Ibzan died and was buried in Bethlehem.

nasb@Judges:10:12 @Then Elon the Zebulunite died and was buried at Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.

nasb@Judges:10:15 @Then Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died and was buried at Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.

nasb@Judges:11:2 @There was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren and had borne no children.

nasb@Judges:11:6 @Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, " A man of God came to me and his appearance was like the appearance of the angel of God, very awesome. And I did not ask him where he came from, nor did he tell me his name.

nasb@Judges:11:9 @God listened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again to the woman as she was sitting in the field, but Manoah her husband was not with her.

nasb@Judges:11:16 @The angel of the LORD said to Manoah, "Though you detain me, I will not eat your food, but if you prepare a burnt offering, then offer it to the LORD." For Manoah did not know that he was the angel of the LORD.

nasb@Judges:11:21 @Now the angel of the LORD did not appear to Manoah or his wife again. Then Manoah knew that he was the angel of the LORD.

nasb@Judges:12:4 @However, his father and mother did not know that it was of the LORD, for He was seeking an occasion against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines were ruling over Israel.

nasb@Judges:12:20 @But Samson's wife was given to his companion who had been his friend.

nasb@Judges:14:2 @When it was told to the Gazites, saying, "Samson has come here," they surrounded the place and lay in wait for him all night at the gate of the city. And they kept silent all night, saying, "Let us wait until the morning light, then we will kill him."

nasb@Judges:14:4 @After this it came about that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.

nasb@Judges:14:9 @Now she had men lying in wait in an inner room. And she said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" But he snapped the cords as a string of tow snaps when it touches fire. So his strength was not discovered.

nasb@Judges:14:16 @It came about when she pressed him daily with her words and urged him, that his soul was annoyed to death.

nasb@Judges:14:17 @So he told her all that was in his heart and said to her, "A razor has never come on my head, for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother's womb. If I am shaved, then my strength will leave me and I will become weak and be like any other man."

nasb@Judges:14:18 @When Delilah saw that he had told her all that was in his heart, she sent and called the lords of the Philistines, saying, "Come up once more, for he has told me all that is in his heart." Then the lords of the Philistines came up to her and brought the money in their hands.

nasb@Judges:14:21 @Then the Philistines seized him and gouged out his eyes; and they brought him down to Gaza and bound him with bronze chains, and he was a grinder in the prison.

nasb@Judges:14:22 @However, the hair of his head began to grow again after it was shaved off.

nasb@Judges:14:26 @Then Samson said to the boy who was holding his hand, "Let me feel the pillars on which the house rests, that I may lean against them."

nasb@Judges:14:27 @Now the house was full of men and women, and all the lords of the Philistines were there. And about 3,000 men and women were on the roof looking on while Samson was amusing them.

nasb@Judges:15:1 @Now there was a man of the hill country of Ephraim whose name was Micah.

nasb@Judges:15:6 @In those days there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his own eyes.

nasb@Judges:15:7 @Now there was a young man from Bethlehem in Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he was staying there.

nasb@Judges:16:1 @In those days there was no king of Israel; and in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking an inheritance for themselves to live in, for until that day an inheritance had not been allotted to them as a possession among the tribes of Israel.

nasb@Judges:16:7 @Then the five men departed and came to Laish and saw the people who were in it living in security, after the manner of the Sidonians, quiet and secure; for there was no ruler humiliating them for anything in the land, and they were far from the Sidonians and had no dealings with anyone.

nasb@Judges:16:20 @The priest's heart was glad, and he took the ephod and household idols and the graven image and went among the people.

nasb@Judges:16:28 @And there was no one to deliver them, because it was far from Sidon and they had no dealings with anyone, and it was in the valley which is near Beth-rehob. And they rebuilt the city and lived in it.

nasb@Judges:16:29 @They called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father who was born in Israel; however, the name of the city formerly was Laish.

nasb@Judges:16:31 @So they set up for themselves Micah's graven image which he had made, all the time that the house of God was at Shiloh.

nasb@Judges:17:1 @Now it came about in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite staying in the remote part of the hill country of Ephraim, who took a concubine for himself from Bethlehem in Judah.

nasb@Judges:17:2 @But his concubine played the harlot against him, and she went away from him to her father's house in Bethlehem in Judah, and was there for a period of four months.

nasb@Judges:17:3 @Then her husband arose and went after her to speak tenderly to her in order to bring her back, taking with him his servant and a pair of donkeys. So she brought him into her father's house, and when the girl's father saw him, he was glad to meet him.

nasb@Judges:17:10 @But the man was not willing to spend the night, so he arose and departed and came to a place opposite Jebus (that is, Jerusalem). And there were with him a pair of saddled donkeys; his concubine also was with him.

nasb@Judges:17:11 @When they were near Jebus, the day was almost gone; and the servant said to his master, "Please come, and let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites and spend the night in it."

nasb@Judges:17:16 @Then behold, an old man was coming out of the field from his work at evening. Now the man was from the hill country of Ephraim, and he was staying in Gibeah, but the men of the place were Benjamites.

nasb@Judges:17:21 @So he took him into his house and gave the donkeys fodder, and they washed their feet and ate and drank.

nasb@Judges:17:26 @As the day began to dawn, the woman came and fell down at the doorway of the man's house where her master was, until full daylight.

nasb@Judges:17:27 @When her master arose in the morning and opened the doors of the house and went out to go on his way, then behold, his concubine was lying at the doorway of the house with her hands on the threshold.

nasb@Judges:17:28 @He said to her, "Get up and let us go," but there was no answer. Then he placed her on the donkey; and the man arose and went to his home.

nasb@Judges:18:4 @So the Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered and said, "I came with my concubine to spend the night at Gibeah which belongs to Benjamin.

nasb@Judges:18:27 @The sons of Israel inquired of the LORD (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,

nasb@Judges:18:38 @Now the appointed sign between the men of Israel and the men in ambush was that they would make a great cloud of smoke rise from the city.

nasb@Judges:18:40 @But when the cloud began to rise from the city in a column of smoke, Benjamin looked behind them; and behold, the whole city was going up in smoke to heaven.

nasb@Judges:18:41 @Then the men of Israel turned, and the men of Benjamin were terrified; for they saw that disaster was close to them.

nasb@Judges:19:9 @For when the people were numbered, behold, not one of the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead was there.

nasb@Judges:19:25 @In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.

nasb@Ruth:1:1 @Now it came about in the days when the judges governed, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem in Judah went to sojourn in the land of Moab with his wife and his two sons.

nasb@Ruth:1:2 @The name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife, Naomi; and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehem in Judah. Now they entered the land of Moab and remained there.

nasb@Ruth:1:3 @Then Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died; and she was left with her two sons.

nasb@Ruth:1:4 @They took for themselves Moabite women as wives; the name of the one was Orpah and the name of the other Ruth. And they lived there about ten years.

nasb@Ruth:1:5 @Then both Mahlon and Chilion also died, and the woman was bereft of her two children and her husband.

nasb@Ruth:1:7 @So she departed from the place where she was, and her two daughters-in-law with her; and they went on the way to return to the land of Judah.

nasb@Ruth:1:18 @When she saw that she was determined to go with her, she said no more to her.

nasb@Ruth:1:19 @So they both went until they came to Bethlehem. And when they had come to Bethlehem, all the city was stirred because of them, and the women said, "Is this Naomi?"

nasb@Ruth:2:1 @Now Naomi had a kinsman of her husband, a man of great wealth, of the family of Elimelech, whose name was Boaz.

nasb@Ruth:2:3 @So she departed and went and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and she happened to come to the portion of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.

nasb@Ruth:2:5 @Then Boaz said to his servant who was in charge of the reapers, "Whose young woman is this?"

nasb@Ruth:2:14 @At mealtime Boaz said to her, "Come here, that you may eat of the bread and dip your piece of bread in the vinegar." So she sat beside the reapers; and he served her roasted grain, and she ate and was satisfied and had some left.

nasb@Ruth:2:17 @So she gleaned in the field until evening. Then she beat out what she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley.

nasb@Ruth:2:18 @She took it up and went into the city, and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. She also took it out and gave Naomi what she had left after she was satisfied.

nasb@Ruth:2:3" @Wash yourself therefore, and anoint yourself and put on your best clothes, and go down to the threshing floor; but do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.

nasb@Ruth:2:7 @When Boaz had eaten and drunk and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain; and she came secretly, and uncovered his feet and lay down.

nasb@Ruth:2:8 @It happened in the middle of the night that the man was startled and bent forward; and behold, a woman was lying at his feet.

nasb@Ruth:3:1 @Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there, and behold, the close relative of whom Boaz spoke was passing by, so he said, "Turn aside, friend, sit down here." And he turned aside and sat down.

nasb@Ruth:3:7 @Now this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning the redemption and the exchange of land to confirm any matter- a man removed his sandal and gave it to another; and this was the manner of attestation in Israel.

nasb@Ruth:3:18 @Now these are the generations of Perez- to Perez was born Hezron,

nasb@Ruth:3:19 @and to Hezron was born Ram, and to Ram, Amminadab,

nasb@Ruth:3:20 @and to Amminadab was born Nahshon, and to Nahshon, Salmon,

nasb@Ruth:3:21 @and to Salmon was born Boaz, and to Boaz, Obed,

nasb@Ruth:3:22 @and to Obed was born Jesse, and to Jesse, David.

nasb@1Samuel:1:1 @Now there was a certain man from Ramathaim-zophim from the hill country of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.

nasb@1Samuel:1:2 @He had two wives- the name of one was Hannah and the name of the other Peninnah; and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.

nasb@1Samuel:1:9 @Then Hannah rose after eating and drinking in Shiloh. Now Eli the priest was sitting on the seat by the doorpost of the temple of the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:1:12 @Now it came about, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli was watching her mouth.

nasb@1Samuel:1:13 @As for Hannah, she was speaking in her heart, only her lips were moving, but her voice was not heard. So Eli thought she was drunk.

nasb@1Samuel:1:18 @She said, " Let your maidservant find favor in your sight." So the woman went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad.

nasb@1Samuel:1:24 @Now when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with a three-year-old bull and one ephah of flour and a jug of wine, and brought him to the house of the LORD in Shiloh, although the child was young.

nasb@1Samuel:2:13 @and the custom of the priests with the people. When any man was offering a sacrifice, the priest's servant would come while the meat was boiling, with a three-pronged fork in his hand.

nasb@1Samuel:2:15 @Also, before they burned the fat, the priest's servant would come and say to the man who was sacrificing, "Give the priest meat for roasting, as he will not take boiled meat from you, only raw."

nasb@1Samuel:2:17 @Thus the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD, for the men despised the offering of the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:2:18 @Now Samuel was ministering before the LORD, as a boy wearing a linen ephod.

nasb@1Samuel:2:22 @Now Eli was very old; and he heard all that his sons were doing to all Israel, and how they lay with the women who served at the doorway of the tent of meeting.

nasb@1Samuel:2:26 @Now the boy Samuel was growing in stature and in favor both with the LORD and with men.

nasb@1Samuel:3:1 @Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the LORD before Eli. And word from the LORD was rare in those days, visions were infrequent.

nasb@1Samuel:3:2 @It happened at that time as Eli was lying down in his place (now his eyesight had begun to grow dim and he could not see well),

nasb@1Samuel:3:3 @and the lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the temple of the LORD where the ark of God was,

nasb@1Samuel:3:8 @So the LORD called Samuel again for the third time. And he arose and went to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." Then Eli discerned that the LORD was calling the boy.

nasb@1Samuel:3:15 @So Samuel lay down until morning. Then he opened the doors of the house of the LORD. But Samuel was afraid to tell the vision to Eli.

nasb@1Samuel:3:19 @Thus Samuel grew and the LORD was with him and let none of his words fail.

nasb@1Samuel:3:20 @All Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was confirmed as a prophet of the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:4:2 @The Philistines drew up in battle array to meet Israel. When the battle spread, Israel was defeated before the Philistines who killed about four thousand men on the battlefield.

nasb@1Samuel:4:10 @So the Philistines fought and Israel was defeated, and every man fled to his tent; and the slaughter was very great, for there fell of Israel thirty thousand foot soldiers.

nasb@1Samuel:4:11 @And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.

nasb@1Samuel:4:13 @When he came, behold, Eli was sitting on his seat by the road eagerly watching, because his heart was trembling for the ark of God. So the man came to tell it in the city, and all the city cried out.

nasb@1Samuel:4:15 @Now Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes were set so that he could not see.

nasb@1Samuel:4:18 @When he mentioned the ark of God, Eli fell off the seat backward beside the gate, and his neck was broken and he died, for he was old and heavy. Thus he judged Israel forty years.

nasb@1Samuel:4:19 @Now his daughter-in-law, Phinehas's wife, was pregnant and about to give birth; and when she heard the news that the ark of God was taken and that her father-in-law and her husband had died, she kneeled down and gave birth, for her pains came upon her.

nasb@1Samuel:4:21 @And she called the boy Ichabod, saying, " The glory has departed from Israel," because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.

nasb@1Samuel:4:22 @She said, "The glory has departed from Israel, for the ark of God was taken."

nasb@1Samuel:5:4 @But when they arose early the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD. And the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off on the threshold; only the trunk of Dagon was left to him.

nasb@1Samuel:5:6 @Now the hand of the LORD was heavy on the Ashdodites, and He ravaged them and smote them with tumors, both Ashdod and its territories.

nasb@1Samuel:5:7 @When the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, "The ark of the God of Israel must not remain with us, for His hand is severe on us and on Dagon our god."

nasb@1Samuel:5:9 @After they had brought it around, the hand of the LORD was against the city with very great confusion; and He smote the men of the city, both young and old, so that tumors broke out on them.

nasb@1Samuel:5:11 @They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines and said, "Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it return to its own place, so that it will not kill us and our people." For there was a deadly confusion throughout the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.

nasb@1Samuel:6:4 @Then they said, "What shall be the guilt offering which we shall return to Him?" And they said, "Five golden tumors and five golden mice according to the number of the lords of the Philistines, for one plague was on all of you and on your lords.

nasb@1Samuel:6:9" @Watch, if it goes up by the way of its own territory to Beth-shemesh, then He has done us this great evil. But if not, then we will know that it was not His hand that struck us; it happened to us by chance."

nasb@1Samuel:6:14 @The cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite and stood there where there was a large stone; and they split the wood of the cart and offered the cows as a burnt offering to the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:6:15 @The Levites took down the ark of the LORD and the box that was with it, in which were the articles of gold, and put them on the large stone; and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices that day to the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:7:2 @From the day that the ark remained at Kiriath-jearim, the time was long, for it was twenty years; and all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:7:10 @Now Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, and the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel. But the LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day against the Philistines and confused them, so that they were routed before Israel.

nasb@1Samuel:7:13 @So the Philistines were subdued and they did not come anymore within the border of Israel. And the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.

nasb@1Samuel:7:14 @The cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even to Gath; and Israel delivered their territory from the hand of the Philistines. So there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.

nasb@1Samuel:7:17 @Then his return was to Ramah, for his house was there, and there he judged Israel; and he built there an altar to the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:8:1 @And it came about when Samuel was old that he appointed his sons judges over Israel.

nasb@1Samuel:8:2 @Now the name of his firstborn was Joel, and the name of his second, Abijah; they were judging in Beersheba.

nasb@1Samuel:8:6 @But the thing was displeasing in the sight of Samuel when they said, "Give us a king to judge us." And Samuel prayed to the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:9:1 @Now there was a man of Benjamin whose name was Kish the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becorath, the son of Aphiah, the son of a Benjamite, a mighty man of valor.

nasb@1Samuel:9:2 @He had a son whose name was Saul, a choice and handsome man, and there was not a more handsome person than he among the sons of Israel; from his shoulders and up he was taller than any of the people.

nasb@1Samuel:9:5 @When they came to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant who was with him, "Come, and let us return, or else my father will cease to be concerned about the donkeys and will become anxious for us."

nasb@1Samuel:9:9 @(Formerly in Israel, when a man went to inquire of God, he used to say, "Come, and let us go to the seer"; for he who is called a prophet now was formerly called a seer.)

nasb@1Samuel:9:10 @Then Saul said to his servant, "Well said; come, let us go." So they went to the city where the man of God was.

nasb@1Samuel:9:14 @So they went up to the city. As they came into the city, behold, Samuel was coming out toward them to go up to the high place.

nasb@1Samuel:9:24 @Then the cook took up the leg with what was on it and set it before Saul. And Samuel said, "Here is what has been reserved! Set it before you and eat, because it has been kept for you until the appointed time, since I said I have invited the people." So Saul ate with Samuel that day.

nasb@1Samuel:9:20 @Thus Samuel brought all the tribes of Israel near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken by lot.

nasb@1Samuel:9:21 @Then he brought the tribe of Benjamin near by its families, and the Matrite family was taken. And Saul the son of Kish was taken; but when they looked for him, he could not be found.

nasb@1Samuel:9:23 @So they ran and took him from there, and when he stood among the people, he was taller than any of the people from his shoulders upward.

nasb@1Samuel:10:5 @Now behold, Saul was coming from the field behind the oxen, and he said, "What is the matter with the people that they weep?" So they related to him the words of the men of Jabesh.

nasb@1Samuel:10:12" @When you saw that Nahash the king of the sons of Ammon came against you, you said to me, ' No, but a king shall reign over us,' although the LORD your God was your king.

nasb@1Samuel:10:15" @ If you will not listen to the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the command of the LORD, then the hand of the LORD will be against you, as it was against your fathers.

nasb@1Samuel:11:1 @Saul was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty two years over Israel.

nasb@1Samuel:11:3 @Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. Then Saul blew the trumpet throughout the land, saying, "Let the Hebrews hear."

nasb@1Samuel:11:7 @Also some of the Hebrews crossed the Jordan into the land of Gad and Gilead. But as for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.

nasb@1Samuel:11:21 @The charge was two-thirds of a shekel for the plowshares, the mattocks, the forks, and the axes, and to fix the hoes.

nasb@1Samuel:11:22 @So it came about on the day of battle that neither sword nor spear was found in the hands of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan, but they were found with Saul and his son Jonathan.

nasb@1Samuel:12:1 @Now the day came that Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who was carrying his armor, "Come and let us cross over to the Philistines' garrison that is on the other side." But he did not tell his father.

nasb@1Samuel:12:2 @Saul was staying in the outskirts of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree which is in Migron. And the people who were with him were about six hundred men,

nasb@1Samuel:12:3 @and Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of the LORD at Shiloh, was wearing an ephod. And the people did not know that Jonathan had gone.

nasb@1Samuel:12:4 @Between the passes by which Jonathan sought to cross over to the Philistines' garrison, there was a sharp crag on the one side and a sharp crag on the other side, and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

nasb@1Samuel:12:6 @Then Jonathan said to the young man who was carrying his armor, "Come and let us cross over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; perhaps the LORD will work for us, for the LORD is not restrained to save by many or by few."

nasb@1Samuel:12:14 @That first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor bearer made was about twenty men within about half a furrow in an acre of land.

nasb@1Samuel:12:15 @And there was a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. Even the garrison and the raiders trembled, and the earth quaked so that it became a great trembling.

nasb@1Samuel:12:18 @Then Saul said to Ahijah, " Bring the ark of God here." For the ark of God was at that time with the sons of Israel.

nasb@1Samuel:12:20 @Then Saul and all the people who were with him rallied and came to the battle; and behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, and there was very great confusion.

nasb@1Samuel:12:25 @All the people of the land entered the forest, and there was honey on the ground.

nasb@1Samuel:12:26 @When the people entered the forest, behold, there was a flow of honey; but no man put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.

nasb@1Samuel:12:27 @But Jonathan had not heard when his father put the people under oath; therefore, he put out the end of the staff that was in his hand and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes brightened.

nasb@1Samuel:12:35 @And Saul built an altar to the LORD; it was the first altar that he built to the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:12:42 @Saul said, "Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son." And Jonathan was taken.

nasb@1Samuel:12:43 @Then Saul said to Jonathan, " Tell me what you have done." So Jonathan told him and said, " I indeed tasted a little honey with the end of the staff that was in my hand. Here I am, I must die!"

nasb@1Samuel:12:50 @The name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the captain of his army was Abner the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.

nasb@1Samuel:12:51 @Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel.

nasb@1Samuel:12:52 @Now the war against the Philistines was severe all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man or any valiant man, he attached him to his staff.

nasb@1Samuel:14:40 @He took his stick in his hand and chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in the shepherd's bag which he had, even in his pouch, and his sling was in his hand; and he approached the Philistine.

nasb@1Samuel:14:42 @When the Philistine looked and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, and ruddy, with a handsome appearance.

nasb@1Samuel:14:50 @Thus David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and he struck the Philistine and killed him; but there was no sword in David's hand.

nasb@1Samuel:14:51 @Then David ran and stood over the Philistine and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

nasb@1Samuel:15:1 @Now it came about when he had finished speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as himself.

nasb@1Samuel:15:4 @Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him and gave it to David, with his armor, including his sword and his bow and his belt.

nasb@1Samuel:15:5 @So David went out wherever Saul sent him, and prospered; and Saul set him over the men of war. And it was pleasing in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants.

nasb@1Samuel:15:10 @Now it came about on the next day that an evil spirit from God came mightily upon Saul, and he raved in the midst of the house, while David was playing the harp with his hand, as usual; and a spear was in Saul's hand.

nasb@1Samuel:15:12 @Now Saul was afraid of David, for the LORD was with him but had departed from Saul.

nasb@1Samuel:15:14 @David was prospering in all his ways for the LORD was with him.

nasb@1Samuel:15:15 @When Saul saw that he was prospering greatly, he dreaded him.

nasb@1Samuel:15:19 @So it came about at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite for a wife.

nasb@1Samuel:15:20 @Now Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David. When they told Saul, the thing was agreeable to him.

nasb@1Samuel:15:28 @When Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal, Saul's daughter, loved him,

nasb@1Samuel:15:29 @then Saul was even more afraid of David. Thus Saul was David's enemy continually.

nasb@1Samuel:15:30 @Then the commanders of the Philistines went out to battle, and it happened as often as they went out, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul. So his name was highly esteemed.

nasb@1Samuel:16:7 @Then Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these words. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as formerly.

nasb@1Samuel:16:8 @When there was war again, David went out and fought with the Philistines and defeated them with great slaughter, so that they fled before him.

nasb@1Samuel:17:27 @It came about the next day, the second day of the new moon, that David's place was empty; so Saul said to Jonathan his son, "Why has the son of Jesse not come to the meal, either yesterday or today?"

nasb@1Samuel:17:34 @Then Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and did not eat food on the second day of the new moon, for he was grieved over David because his father had dishonored him.

nasb@1Samuel:17:35 @Now it came about in the morning that Jonathan went out into the field for the appointment with David, and a little lad was with him.

nasb@1Samuel:17:36 @He said to his lad, " Run, find now the arrows which I am about to shoot." As the lad was running, he shot an arrow past him.

nasb@1Samuel:17:39 @But the lad was not aware of anything; only Jonathan and David knew about the matter.

nasb@1Samuel:17:41 @When the lad was gone, David rose from the south side and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed three times. And they kissed each other and wept together, but David wept the more.

nasb@1Samuel:18:5 @David answered the priest and said to him, " Surely women have been kept from us as previously when I set out and the vessels of the young men were holy, though it was an ordinary journey; how much more then today will their vessels be holy?"

nasb@2Samuel:13:12 @And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.

nasb@2Samuel:13:23 @While all the country was weeping with a loud voice, all the people passed over. The king also passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over toward the way of the wilderness.

nasb@2Samuel:13:30 @And David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went, and his head was covered and he walked barefoot. Then all the people who were with him each covered his head and went up weeping as they went.

nasb@2Samuel:13:32 @It happened as David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, that behold, Hushai the Archite met him with his coat torn and dust on his head.

nasb@2Samuel:14:5 @When King David came to Bahurim, behold, there came out from there a man of the family of the house of Saul whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera; he came out cursing continually as he came.

nasb@2Samuel:14:23 @The advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if one inquired of the word of God; so was all the advice of Ahithophel regarded by both David and Absalom.

nasb@2Samuel:14:19 @And the woman took a covering and spread it over the well's mouth and scattered grain on it, so that nothing was known.

nasb@2Samuel:14:23 @Now when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his donkey and arose and went to his home, to his city, and set his house in order, and strangled himself; thus he died and was buried in the grave of his father.

nasb@2Samuel:14:25 @Absalom set Amasa over the army in place of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man whose name was Ithra the Israelite, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, Joab's mother.

nasb@2Samuel:15:7 @The people of Israel were defeated there before the servants of David, and the slaughter there that day was great, 20,000 men.

nasb@2Samuel:15:8 @For the battle there was spread over the whole countryside, and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.

nasb@2Samuel:15:9 @Now Absalom happened to meet the servants of David. For Absalom was riding on his mule, and the mule went under the thick branches of a great oak. And his head caught fast in the oak, so he was left hanging between heaven and earth, while the mule that was under him kept going.

nasb@2Samuel:15:14 @Then Joab said, "I will not waste time here with you." So he took three spears in his hand and thrust them through the heart of Absalom while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.

nasb@2Samuel:15:24 @Now David was sitting between the two gates; and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate by the wall, and raised his eyes and looked, and behold, a man running by himself.

nasb@2Samuel:15:29 @The king said, " Is it well with the young man Absalom?" And Ahimaaz answered, "When Joab sent the king's servant, and your servant, I saw a great tumult, but I did not know what it was."

nasb@2Samuel:15:33 @The king was deeply moved and went up to the chamber over the gate and wept. And thus he said as he walked, " O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! Would I had died instead of you, O Absalom, my son, my son!"

nasb@2Samuel:16:1 @Then it was told Joab, "Behold, the king is weeping and mourns for Absalom."

nasb@2Samuel:16:2 @The victory that day was turned to mourning for all the people, for the people heard it said that day, "The king is grieved for his son."

nasb@2Samuel:16:18 @Then they kept crossing the ford to bring over the king's household, and to do what was good in his sight. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king as he was about to cross the Jordan.

nasb@2Samuel:16:24 @Then Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king; and he had neither cared for his feet, nor trimmed his mustache, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.

nasb@2Samuel:16:25 @It was when he came from Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said to him, " Why did you not go with me, Mephibosheth?"

nasb@2Samuel:16:28" @For all my father's household was nothing but dead men before my lord the king; yet you set your servant among those who ate at your own table. What right do I have yet that I should complain anymore to the king?"

nasb@2Samuel:16:32 @Now Barzillai was very old, being eighty years old; and he had sustained the king while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very great man.

nasb@2Samuel:16:43 @But the men of Israel answered the men of Judah and said, " We have ten parts in the king, therefore we also have more claim on David than you. Why then did you treat us with contemptNULL Was it not our advice first to bring back our kingNULL" Yet the words of the men of Judah were harsher than the words of the men of Israel.

nasb@2Samuel:17:1 @Now a worthless fellow happened to be there whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite; and he blew the trumpet and said, " We have no portion in David, Nor do we have inheritance in the son of Jesse; Every man to his tents, O Israel!"

nasb@2Samuel:17:8 @When they were at the large stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came to meet them. Now Joab was dressed in his military attire, and over it was a belt with a sword in its sheath fastened at his waist; and as he went forward, it fell out.

nasb@2Samuel:17:10 @But Amasa was not on guard against the sword which was in Joab's hand so he struck him in the belly with it and poured out his inward parts on the ground, and did not strike him again, and he died. Then Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba the son of Bichri.

nasb@2Samuel:17:13 @As soon as he was removed from the highway, all the men passed on after Joab to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri.

nasb@2Samuel:18:14 @They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the grave of Kish his father; thus they did all that the king commanded, and after that God was moved by prayer for the land.

nasb@2Samuel:18:16 @Then Ishbi-benob, who was among the descendants of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, was girded with a new sword, and he intended to kill David.

nasb@2Samuel:18:18 @Now it came about after this that there was war again with the Philistines at Gob; then Sibbecai the Hushathite struck down Saph, who was among the descendants of the giant.

nasb@2Samuel:18:19 @There was war with the Philistines again at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.

nasb@2Samuel:18:20 @There was war at Gath again, where there was a man of great stature who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; and he also had been born to the giant.

nasb@2Samuel:19:8" @Then the earth shook and quaked, The foundations of heaven were trembling And were shaken, because He was angry.

nasb@2Samuel:19:2" @ The Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, And His word was on my tongue.

nasb@2Samuel:19:8 @These are the names of the mighty men whom David had- Josheb-basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains, he was called Adino the Eznite, because of eight hundred slain by him at one time;

nasb@2Samuel:19:9 @and after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David when they defied the Philistines who were gathered there to battle and the men of Israel had withdrawn.

nasb@2Samuel:19:10 @He arose and struck the Philistines until his hand was weary and clung to the sword, and the LORD brought about a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to strip the slain.

nasb@2Samuel:19:11 @Now after him was Shammah the son of Agee a Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered into a troop where there was a plot of ground full of lentils, and the people fled from the Philistines.

nasb@2Samuel:19:13 @Then three of the thirty chief men went down and came to David in the harvest time to the cave of Adullam, while the troop of the Philistines was camping in the valley of Rephaim.

nasb@2Samuel:19:14 @David was then in the stronghold, while the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem.

nasb@2Samuel:19:16 @So the three mighty men broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water from the well of Bethlehem which was by the gate, and took it and brought it to David. Nevertheless he would not drink it, but poured it out to the LORD;

nasb@2Samuel:19:18 @Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the thirty. And he swung his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name as well as the three.

nasb@2Samuel:20:2 @The king said to Joab the commander of the army who was with him, "Go about now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan to Beersheba, and register the people, that I may know the number of the people."

nasb@2Samuel:20:16 @When the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented from the calamity and said to the angel who destroyed the people, "It is enough! Now relax your hand!" And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

nasb@2Samuel:20:25 @David built there an altar to the LORD and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. Thus the LORD was moved by prayer for the land, and the plague was held back from Israel.

nasb@1Kings:1:1 @Now King David was old, advanced in age; and they covered him with clothes, but he could not keep warm.

nasb@1Kings:1:4 @The girl was very beautiful; and she became the king's nurse and served him, but the king did not cohabit with her.

nasb@1Kings:1:6 @His father had never crossed him at any time by asking, "Why have you done so?" And he was also a very handsome man, and he was born after Absalom.

nasb@1Kings:1:15 @So Bathsheba went in to the king in the bedroom. Now the king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammite was ministering to the king.

nasb@1Kings:1:22 @Behold, while she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.

nasb@1Kings:1:42 @While he was still speaking, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came. Then Adonijah said, "Come in, for you are a valiant man and bring good news."

nasb@1Kings:1:50 @And Adonijah was afraid of Solomon, and he arose, went and took hold of the horns of the altar.

nasb@1Kings:1:51 @Now it was told Solomon, saying, "Behold, Adonijah is afraid of King Solomon, for behold, he has taken hold of the horns of the altar, saying, 'Let King Solomon swear to me today that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.'"

nasb@1Kings:2:8" @Behold, there is with you Shimei the son of Gera the Benjamite, of Bahurim; now it was he who cursed me with a violent curse on the day I went to Mahanaim. But when he came down to me at the Jordan, I swore to him by the LORD, saying, 'I will not put you to death with the sword.'

nasb@1Kings:2:10 @Then David slept with his fathers and was buried in the city of David.

nasb@1Kings:2:12 @And Solomon sat on the throne of David his father, and his kingdom was firmly established.

nasb@1Kings:2:15 @So he said, "You know that the kingdom was mine and that all Israel expected me to be king; however, the kingdom has turned about and become my brother's, for it was his from the LORD.

nasb@1Kings:2:26 @Then to Abiathar the priest the king said, " Go to Anathoth to your own field, for you deserve to die; but I will not put you to death at this time, because you carried the ark of the Lord GOD before my father David, and because you were afflicted in everything with which my father was afflicted."

nasb@1Kings:2:29 @It was told King Solomon that Joab had fled to the tent of the LORD, and behold, he is beside the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, " Go, fall upon him."

nasb@1Kings:2:34 @Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up and fell upon him and put him to death, and he was buried at his own house in the wilderness.

nasb@1Kings:2:41 @It was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and had returned.

nasb@1Kings:2:46 @So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and fell upon him so that he died. Thus the kingdom was established in the hands of Solomon.

nasb@1Kings:3:2 @The people were still sacrificing on the high places, because there was no house built for the name of the LORD until those days.

nasb@1Kings:3:4 @The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the great high place; Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.

nasb@1Kings:3:10 @It was pleasing in the sight of the Lord that Solomon had asked this thing.

nasb@1Kings:3:15 @Then Solomon awoke, and behold, it was a dream. And he came to Jerusalem and stood before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and offered burnt offerings and made peace offerings, and made a feast for all his servants.

nasb@1Kings:3:17 @The one woman said, "Oh, my lord, this woman and I live in the same house; and I gave birth to a child while she was in the house.

nasb@1Kings:3:18" @It happened on the third day after I gave birth, that this woman also gave birth to a child, and we were together. There was no stranger with us in the house, only the two of us in the house.

nasb@1Kings:3:21" @When I rose in the morning to nurse my son, behold, he was dead; but when I looked at him carefully in the morning, behold, he was not my son, whom I had borne."

nasb@1Kings:3:26 @Then the woman whose child was the living one spoke to the king, for she was deeply stirred over her son and said, "Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and by no means kill him." But the other said, "He shall be neither mine nor yours; divide him!"

nasb@1Kings:3:28 @When all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had handed down, they feared the king, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to administer justice.

nasb@1Kings:4:1 @Now King Solomon was king over all Israel.

nasb@1Kings:4:2 @These were his officials- Azariah the son of Zadok was the priest;

nasb@1Kings:4:6 @and Ahishar was over the household; and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the men subject to forced labor.

nasb@1Kings:4:10 @Ben-hesed, in Arubboth ( Socoh was his and all the land of Hepher);

nasb@1Kings:4:19 @Geber the son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, the country of Sihon king of the Amorites and of Og king of Bashan; and he was the only deputy who was in the land.

nasb@1Kings:4:22 @Solomon's provision for one day was thirty kors of fine flour and sixty kors of meal,

nasb@1Kings:4:31 @For he was wiser than all men, than Ethan the Ezrahite, Heman, Calcol and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his fame was known in all the surrounding nations.

nasb@1Kings:5:3" @You know that David my father was unable to build a house for the name of the LORD his God because of the wars which surrounded him, until the LORD put them under the soles of his feet.

nasb@1Kings:5:12 @The LORD gave wisdom to Solomon, just as He promised him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and the two of them made a covenant.

nasb@1Kings:5:14 @He sent them to Lebanon, 10,000 a month in relays; they were in Lebanon a month and two months at home. And Adoniram was over the forced laborers.

nasb@1Kings:6:2 @As for the house which King Solomon built for the LORD, its length was sixty cubits and its width twenty cubits and its height thirty cubits.

nasb@1Kings:6:3 @The porch in front of the nave of the house was twenty cubits in length, corresponding to the width of the house, and its depth along the front of the house was ten cubits.

nasb@1Kings:6:6 @The lowest story was five cubits wide, and the middle was six cubits wide, and the third was seven cubits wide; for on the outside he made offsets in the wall of the house all around in order that the beams would not be inserted in the walls of the house.

nasb@1Kings:6:7 @The house, while it was being built, was built of stone prepared at the quarry, and there was neither hammer nor axe nor any iron tool heard in the house while it was being built.

nasb@1Kings:6:8 @The doorway for the lowest side chamber was on the right side of the house; and they would go up by winding stairs to the middle story, and from the middle to the third.

nasb@1Kings:6:17 @The house, that is, the nave in front of the inner sanctuary, was forty cubits long.

nasb@1Kings:6:18 @There was cedar on the house within, carved in the shape of gourds and open flowers; all was cedar, there was no stone seen.

nasb@1Kings:6:20 @The inner sanctuary was twenty cubits in length, twenty cubits in width, and twenty cubits in height, and he overlaid it with pure gold. He also overlaid the altar with cedar.

nasb@1Kings:6:22 @He overlaid the whole house with gold, until all the house was finished. Also the whole altar which was by the inner sanctuary he overlaid with gold.

nasb@1Kings:6:24 @Five cubits was the one wing of the cherub and five cubits the other wing of the cherub; from the end of one wing to the end of the other wing were ten cubits.

nasb@1Kings:6:25 @The other cherub was ten cubits; both the cherubim were of the same measure and the same form.

nasb@1Kings:6:26 @The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other cherub.

nasb@1Kings:6:27 @He placed the cherubim in the midst of the inner house, and the wings of the cherubim were spread out, so that the wing of the one was touching the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub was touching the other wall.

nasb@1Kings:6:37 @In the fourth year the foundation of the house of the LORD was laid, in the month of Ziv.

nasb@1Kings:6:38 @In the eleventh year, in the month of Bul, which is the eighth month, the house was finished throughout all its parts and according to all its plans. So he was seven years in building it.

nasb@1Kings:7:1 @Now Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house.

nasb@1Kings:7:2 @He built the house of the forest of Lebanon; its length was 100 cubits and its width 50 cubits and its height 30 cubits, on four rows of cedar pillars with cedar beams on the pillars.

nasb@1Kings:7:3 @It was paneled with cedar above the side chambers which were on the 45 pillars, 15 in each row.

nasb@1Kings:7:5 @All the doorways and doorposts had squared artistic frames, and window was opposite window in three ranks.

nasb@1Kings:7:6 @Then he made the hall of pillars; its length was 50 cubits and its width 30 cubits, and a porch was in front of them and pillars and a threshold in front of them.

nasb@1Kings:7:7 @He made the hall of the throne where he was to judge, the hall of judgment, and it was paneled with cedar from floor to floor.

nasb@1Kings:7:8 @His house where he was to live, the other court inward from the hall, was of the same workmanship. He also made a house like this hall for Pharaoh's daughter, whom Solomon had married.

nasb@1Kings:7:10 @The foundation was of costly stones, even large stones, stones of ten cubits and stones of eight cubits.

nasb@1Kings:7:14 @He was a widow's son from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze; and he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill for doing any work in bronze. So he came to King Solomon and performed all his work.

nasb@1Kings:7:15 @He fashioned the two pillars of bronze; eighteen cubits was the height of one pillar, and a line of twelve cubits measured the circumference of both.

nasb@1Kings:7:16 @He also made two capitals of molten bronze to set on the tops of the pillars; the height of the one capital was five cubits and the height of the other capital was five cubits.

nasb@1Kings:7:20 @There were capitals on the two pillars, even above and close to the rounded projection which was beside the network; and the pomegranates numbered two hundred in rows around both capitals.

nasb@1Kings:7:22 @On the top of the pillars was lily design. So the work of the pillars was finished.

nasb@1Kings:7:23 @Now he made the sea of cast metal ten cubits from brim to brim, circular in form, and its height was five cubits, and thirty cubits in circumference.

nasb@1Kings:7:25 @It stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east; and the sea was set on top of them, and all their rear parts turned inward.

nasb@1Kings:7:26 @It was a handbreadth thick, and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, as a lily blossom; it could hold two thousand baths.

nasb@1Kings:7:27 @Then he made the ten stands of bronze; the length of each stand was four cubits and its width four cubits and its height three cubits.

nasb@1Kings:7:28 @This was the design of the stands- they had borders, even borders between the frames,

nasb@1Kings:7:29 @and on the borders which were between the frames were lions, oxen and cherubim; and on the frames there was a pedestal above, and beneath the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging work.

nasb@1Kings:7:31 @Its opening inside the crown at the top was a cubit, and its opening was round like the design of a pedestal, a cubit and a half; and also on its opening there were engravings, and their borders were square, not round.

nasb@1Kings:7:32 @The four wheels were underneath the borders, and the axles of the wheels were on the stand. And the height of a wheel was a cubit and a half.

nasb@1Kings:7:33 @The workmanship of the wheels was like the workmanship of a chariot wheel. Their axles, their rims, their spokes, and their hubs were all cast.

nasb@1Kings:7:35 @On the top of the stand there was a circular form half a cubit high, and on the top of the stand its stays and its borders were part of it.

nasb@1Kings:7:38 @He made ten basins of bronze, one basin held forty baths; each basin was four cubits, and on each of the ten stands was one basin.

nasb@1Kings:7:48 @Solomon made all the furniture which was in the house of the LORD- the golden altar and the golden table on which was the bread of the Presence;

nasb@1Kings:7:51 @Thus all the work that King Solomon performed in the house of the LORD was finished. And Solomon brought in the things dedicated by his father David, the silver and the gold and the utensils, and he put them in the treasuries of the house of the LORD.

nasb@1Kings:8:9 @There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses put there at Horeb, where the LORD made a covenant with the sons of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.

nasb@1Kings:8:14 @Then the king faced about and blessed all the assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing.

nasb@1Kings:8:17" @ Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.

nasb@1Kings:8:18" @But the LORD said to my father David, 'Because it was in your heart to build a house for My name, you did well that it was in your heart.

nasb@1Kings:8:57" @May the LORD our God be with us, as He was with our fathers; may He not leave us or forsake us,

nasb@1Kings:8:64 @On the same day the king consecrated the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD, because there he offered the burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat of the peace offerings; for the bronze altar that was before the LORD was too small to hold the burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat of the peace offerings.

nasb@1Kings:9:25 @Now three times in a year Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he built to the LORD, burning incense with them on the altar which was before the LORD. So he finished the house.

nasb@1Kings:10:2 @So she came to Jerusalem with a very large retinue, with camels carrying spices and very much gold and precious stones. When she came to Solomon, she spoke with him about all that was in her heart.

nasb@1Kings:10:3 @Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was hidden from the king which he did not explain to her.

nasb@1Kings:10:5 @the food of his table, the seating of his servants, the attendance of his waiters and their attire, his cupbearers, and his stairway by which he went up to the house of the LORD, there was no more spirit in her.

nasb@1Kings:10:24 @All the earth was seeking the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom which God had put in his heart.

nasb@1Kings:10:28 @Also Solomon's import of horses was from Egypt and Kue, and the king's merchants procured them from Kue for a price.

nasb@1Kings:10:29 @A chariot was imported from Egypt for 600 shekels of silver, and a horse for 150; and by the same means they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of the Arameans.

nasb@1Kings:11:4 @For when Solomon was old, his wives turned his heart away after other gods; and his heart was not wholly devoted to the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father had been.

nasb@1Kings:11:6 @Solomon did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, and did not follow the LORD fully, as David his father had done.

nasb@1Kings:11:9 @Now the LORD was angry with Solomon because his heart was turned away from the LORD, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,

nasb@1Kings:11:14 @Then the LORD raised up an adversary to Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; he was of the royal line in Edom.

nasb@1Kings:11:15 @For it came about, when David was in Edom, and Joab the commander of the army had gone up to bury the slain, and had struck down every male in Edom

nasb@1Kings:11:17 @that Hadad fled to Egypt, he and certain Edomites of his father's servants with him, while Hadad was a young boy.

nasb@1Kings:11:20 @The sister of Tahpenes bore his son Genubath, whom Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh's house; and Genubath was in Pharaoh's house among the sons of Pharaoh.

nasb@1Kings:11:21 @But when Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers and that Joab the commander of the army was dead, Hadad said to Pharaoh, "Send me away, that I may go to my own country."

nasb@1Kings:11:25 @So he was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, along with the evil that Hadad did; and he abhorred Israel and reigned over Aram.

nasb@1Kings:11:26 @Then Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, Solomon's servant, whose mother's name was Zeruah, a widow, also rebelled against the king.

nasb@1Kings:11:27 @Now this was the reason why he rebelled against the king- Solomon built the Millo, and closed up the breach of the city of his father David.

nasb@1Kings:11:28 @Now the man Jeroboam was a valiant warrior, and when Solomon saw that the young man was industrious, he appointed him over all the forced labor of the house of Joseph.

nasb@1Kings:11:30 @Then Ahijah took hold of the new cloak which was on him and tore it into twelve pieces.

nasb@1Kings:11:40 @Solomon sought therefore to put Jeroboam to death; but Jeroboam arose and fled to Egypt to Shishak king of Egypt, and he was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.

nasb@1Kings:11:42 @Thus the time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.

nasb@1Kings:11:43 @And Solomon slept with his fathers and was buried in the city of his father David, and his son Rehoboam reigned in his place.

nasb@1Kings:12:2 @Now when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it, he was living in Egypt (for he was yet in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon).

nasb@1Kings:12:6 @King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon while he was still alive, saying, "How do you counsel me to answer this people?"

nasb@1Kings:12:15 @So the king did not listen to the people; for it was a turn of events from the LORD, that He might establish His word, which the LORD spoke through Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

nasb@1Kings:12:18 @Then King Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the forced labor, and all Israel stoned him to death. And King Rehoboam made haste to mount his chariot to flee to Jerusalem.

nasb@1Kings:13:1 @Now behold, there came a man of God from Judah to Bethel by the word of the LORD, while Jeroboam was standing by the altar to burn incense.

nasb@1Kings:13:5 @The altar also was split apart and the ashes were poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the LORD.

nasb@1Kings:13:6 @The king said to the man of God, "Please entreat the LORD your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me." So the man of God entreated the LORD, and the king's hand was restored to him, and it became as it was before.

nasb@1Kings:13:9" @For so it was commanded me by the word of the LORD, saying, 'You shall eat no bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way which you came.'"

nasb@1Kings:13:11 @Now an old prophet was living in Bethel; and his sons came and told him all the deeds which the man of God had done that day in Bethel; the words which he had spoken to the king, these also they related to their father.

nasb@1Kings:13:24 @Now when he had gone, a lion met him on the way and killed him, and his body was thrown on the road, with the donkey standing beside it; the lion also was standing beside the body.

nasb@1Kings:14:8 @and tore the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you-- yet you have not been like My servant David, who kept My commandments and who followed Me with all his heart, to do only that which was right in My sight;

nasb@1Kings:14:13" @All Israel shall mourn for him and bury him, for he alone of Jeroboam's family will come to the grave, because in him something good was found toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.

nasb@1Kings:14:17 @Then Jeroboam's wife arose and departed and came to Tirzah. As she was entering the threshold of the house, the child died.

nasb@1Kings:14:20 @The time that Jeroboam reigned was twenty-two years; and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his place.

nasb@1Kings:14:21 @Now Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah.

nasb@1Kings:15:16 @Now there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.

nasb@1Kings:15:22 @Then King Asa made a proclamation to all Judah--none was exempt--and they carried away the stones of Ramah and its timber with which Baasha had built. And King Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin and Mizpah.

nasb@1Kings:16:19 @He said to her, "Give me your son." Then he took him from her bosom and carried him up to the upper room where he was living, and laid him on his own bed.

nasb@1Kings:17:2 @So Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. Now the famine was severe in Samaria.

nasb@1Kings:17:3 @Ahab called Obadiah who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly;

nasb@1Kings:17:26 @Then they took the ox which was given them and they prepared it and called on the name of Baal from morning until noon saying, "O Baal, answer us." But there was no voice and no one answered. And they leaped about the altar which they made.

nasb@1Kings:17:29 @When midday was past, they raved until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice; but there was no voice, no one answered, and no one paid attention.

nasb@1Kings:17:38 @Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt offering and the wood and the stones and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.

nasb@1Kings:17:45 @In a little while the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a heavy shower. And Ahab rode and went to Jezreel.

nasb@1Kings:17:46 @Then the hand of the LORD was on Elijah, and he girded up his loins and outran Ahab to Jezreel.

nasb@1Kings:18:3 @And he was afraid and arose and ran for his life and came to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.

nasb@1Kings:18:5 @He lay down and slept under a juniper tree; and behold, there was an angel touching him, and he said to him, "Arise, eat."

nasb@1Kings:18:6 @Then he looked and behold, there was at his head a bread cake baked on hot stones, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank and lay down again.

nasb@1Kings:18:12 @After the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a sound of a gentle blowing.

nasb@1Kings:18:19 @So he departed from there and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, while he was plowing with twelve pairs of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth. And Elijah passed over to him and threw his mantle on him.

nasb@1Kings:19:12 @When Ben-hadad heard this message, as he was drinking with the kings in the temporary shelters, he said to his servants, "Station yourselves." So they stationed themselves against the city.

nasb@1Kings:19:16 @They went out at noon, while Ben-hadad was drinking himself drunk in the temporary shelters with the thirty-two kings who helped him.

nasb@1Kings:19:29 @So they camped one over against the other seven days. And on the seventh day the battle was joined, and the sons of Israel killed of the Arameans 100,000 foot soldiers in one day.

nasb@1Kings:20:1 @Now it came about after these things that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard which was in Jezreel beside the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.

nasb@1Kings:20:11 @So the men of his city, the elders and the nobles who lived in his city, did as Jezebel had sent word to them, just as it was written in the letters which she had sent them.

nasb@1Kings:20:16 @When Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, Ahab arose to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.

nasb@1Kings:20:25 @Surely there was no one like Ahab who sold himself to do evil in the sight of the LORD, because Jezebel his wife incited him.

nasb@1Kings:21:33 @When the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.

nasb@1Kings:21:35 @The battle raged that day, and the king was propped up in his chariot in front of the Arameans, and died at evening, and the blood from the wound ran into the bottom of the chariot.

nasb@1Chronicles:11:19 @From Manasseh also some defected to David when he was about to go to battle with the Philistines against Saul. But they did not help them, for the lords of the Philistines after consultation sent him away, saying, "At the cost of our heads he may defect to his master Saul."

nasb@1Chronicles:11:22 @For day by day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army like the army of God.

nasb@1Chronicles:11:27 @Now Jehoiada was the leader of the house of Aaron, and with him were 3,700,

nasb@1Chronicles:11:40 @Moreover those who were near to them, even as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought food on donkeys, camels, mules and on oxen, great quantities of flour cakes, fig cakes and bunches of raisins, wine, oil, oxen and sheep. There was joy indeed in Israel.

nasb@1Chronicles:12:4 @Then all the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

nasb@1Chronicles:12:12 @David was afraid of God that day, saying, "How can I bring the ark of God home to me?"

nasb@1Chronicles:13:2 @And David realized that the LORD had established him as king over Israel, and that his kingdom was highly exalted, for the sake of His people Israel.

nasb@1Chronicles:14:22 @Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was in charge of the singing; he gave instruction in singing because he was skillful.

nasb@2Chronicles:1:1 @Now Solomon the son of David established himself securely over his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him and exalted him greatly.

nasb@2Chronicles:1:3 @Then Solomon and all the assembly with him went to the high place which was at Gibeon, for God's tent of meeting was there, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness.

nasb@2Chronicles:1:5 @Now the bronze altar, which Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the LORD, and Solomon and the assembly sought it out.

nasb@2Chronicles:1:6 @Solomon went up there before the LORD to the bronze altar which was at the tent of meeting, and offered a thousand burnt offerings on it.

nasb@2Chronicles:1:13 @So Solomon went from the high place which was at Gibeon, from the tent of meeting, to Jerusalem, and he reigned over Israel.

nasb@2Chronicles:3:3 @Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for building the house of God. The length in cubits, according to the old standard was sixty cubits, and the width twenty cubits.

nasb@2Chronicles:3:4 @The porch which was in front of the house was as long as the width of the house, twenty cubits, and the height 120; and inside he overlaid it with pure gold.

nasb@2Chronicles:3:6 @Further, he adorned the house with precious stones; and the gold was gold from Parvaim.

nasb@2Chronicles:3:8 @Now he made the room of the holy of holies- its length across the width of the house was twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to 600 talents.

nasb@2Chronicles:3:9 @The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He also overlaid the upper rooms with gold.

nasb@2Chronicles:3:11 @The wingspan of the cherubim was twenty cubits; the wing of one, of five cubits, touched the wall of the house, and its other wing, of five cubits, touched the wing of the other cherub.

nasb@2Chronicles:3:12 @The wing of the other cherub, of five cubits, touched the wall of the house; and its other wing of five cubits was attached to the wing of the first cherub.

nasb@2Chronicles:3:15 @He also made two pillars for the front of the house, thirty-five cubits high, and the capital on the top of each was five cubits.

nasb@2Chronicles:4:2 @Also he made the cast metal sea, ten cubits from brim to brim, circular in form, and its height was five cubits and its circumference thirty cubits.

nasb@2Chronicles:4:4 @It stood on twelve oxen, three facing the north, three facing west, three facing south and three facing east; and the sea was set on top of them and all their hindquarters turned inwards.

nasb@2Chronicles:4:5 @It was a handbreadth thick, and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom; it could hold 3,000 baths.

nasb@2Chronicles:4:6 @He also made ten basins in which to wash, and he set five on the right side and five on the left to rinse things for the burnt offering; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.

nasb@2Chronicles:5:1 @Thus all the work that Solomon performed for the house of the LORD was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, even the silver and the gold and all the utensils, and put them in the treasuries of the house of God.

nasb@2Chronicles:5:10 @There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets which Moses put there at Horeb, where the LORD made a covenant with the sons of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

nasb@2Chronicles:5:13 @in unison when the trumpeters and the singers were to make themselves heard with one voice to praise and to glorify the LORD, and when they lifted up their voice accompanied by trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and when they praised the LORD saying, " He indeed is good for His lovingkindness is everlasting," then the house, the house of the LORD, was filled with a cloud,

nasb@2Chronicles:5:3 @Then the king faced about and blessed all the assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing.

nasb@2Chronicles:5:7" @ Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the name of the LORD, the God of Israel.

nasb@2Chronicles:5:8" @But the LORD said to my father David, 'Because it was in your heart to build a house for My name, you did well that it was in your heart.

nasb@2Chronicles:6:6 @The priests stood at their posts, and the Levites also, with the instruments of music to the LORD, which King David had made for giving praise to the LORD--"for His lovingkindness is everlasting"--whenever he gave praise by their means, while the priests on the other side blew trumpets; and all Israel was standing.

nasb@2Chronicles:6:7 @Then Solomon consecrated the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD, for there he offered the burnt offerings and the fat of the peace offerings because the bronze altar which Solomon had made was not able to contain the burnt offering, the grain offering and the fat.

nasb@2Chronicles:6:21" @As for this house, which was exalted, everyone who passes by it will be astonished and say, ' Why has the LORD done thus to this land and to this house?'

nasb@2Chronicles:7:16 @Thus all the work of Solomon was carried out from the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was completed.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:1 @Now when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to Jerusalem to test Solomon with difficult questions. She had a very large retinue, with camels carrying spices and a large amount of gold and precious stones; and when she came to Solomon, she spoke with him about all that was on her heart.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:2 @Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was hidden from Solomon which he did not explain to her.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:4 @the food at his table, the seating of his servants, the attendance of his ministers and their attire, his cupbearers and their attire, and his stairway by which he went up to the house of the LORD, she was breathless.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:5 @Then she said to the king, "It was a true report which I heard in my own land about your words and your wisdom.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:6" @Nevertheless I did not believe their reports until I came and my eyes had seen it. And behold, the half of the greatness of your wisdom was not told me. You surpass the report that I heard.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:11 @From the algum trees the king made steps for the house of the LORD and for the king's palace, and lyres and harps for the singers; and none like that was seen before in the land of Judah.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:13 @Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold,

nasb@2Chronicles:8:19 @Twelve lions were standing there on the six steps on the one side and on the other; nothing like it was made for any other kingdom.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:20 @All King Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold; silver was not considered valuable in the days of Solomon.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:26 @He was the ruler over all the kings from the Euphrates River even to the land of the Philistines, and as far as the border of Egypt.

nasb@2Chronicles:8:31 @And Solomon slept with his fathers and was buried in the city of his father David; and his son Rehoboam reigned in his place.

nasb@2Chronicles:9:2 @When Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it (for he was in Egypt where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon), Jeroboam returned from Egypt.

nasb@2Chronicles:9:6 @Then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon while he was still alive, saying, "How do you counsel me to answer this people?"

nasb@2Chronicles:9:15 @So the king did not listen to the people, for it was a turn of events from God that the LORD might establish His word, which He spoke through Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

nasb@2Chronicles:9:18 @Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was over the forced labor, and the sons of Israel stoned him to death. And King Rehoboam made haste to mount his chariot to flee to Jerusalem.

nasb@2Chronicles:11:1 @When the kingdom of Rehoboam was established and strong, he and all Israel with him forsook the law of the LORD.

nasb@2Chronicles:11:13 @So King Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem and reigned. Now Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen from all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there. And his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.

nasb@2Chronicles:11:16 @And Rehoboam slept with his fathers and was buried in the city of David; and his son Abijah became king in his place.

nasb@2Chronicles:12:2 @He reigned three years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Micaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. Now there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

nasb@2Chronicles:12:7 @and worthless men gathered about him, scoundrels, who proved too strong for Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, when he was young and timid and could not hold his own against them.

nasb@2Chronicles:12:13 @But Jeroboam had set an ambush to come from the rear, so that Israel was in front of Judah and the ambush was behind them.

nasb@2Chronicles:12:15 @Then the men of Judah raised a war cry, and when the men of Judah raised the war cry, then it was that God routed Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

nasb@2Chronicles:13:1 @So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David, and his son Asa became king in his place. The land was undisturbed for ten years during his days.

nasb@2Chronicles:13:5 @He also removed the high places and the incense altars from all the cities of Judah. And the kingdom was undisturbed under him.

nasb@2Chronicles:13:6 @He built fortified cities in Judah, since the land was undisturbed, and there was no one at war with him during those years, because the LORD had given him rest.

nasb@2Chronicles:13:14 @They destroyed all the cities around Gerar, for the dread of the LORD had fallen on them; and they despoiled all the cities, for there was much plunder in them.

nasb@2Chronicles:14:3" @ For many days Israel was without the true God and without a teaching priest and without law.

nasb@2Chronicles:14:5" @ In those times there was no peace to him who went out or to him who came in, for many disturbances afflicted all the inhabitants of the lands.

nasb@2Chronicles:14:6" @ Nation was crushed by nation, and city by city, for God troubled them with every kind of distress.

nasb@2Chronicles:14:8 @Now when Asa heard these words and the prophecy which Azariah the son of Oded the prophet spoke, he took courage and removed the abominable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities which he had captured in the hill country of Ephraim.

nasb@2Chronicles:14:9 @He gathered all Judah and Benjamin and those from Ephraim, Manasseh and Simeon who resided with them, for many defected to him from Israel when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.

nasb@2Chronicles:14:19 @And there was no more war until the thirty-fifth year of Asa's reign.

nasb@2Chronicles:15:10 @Then Asa was angry with the seer and put him in prison, for he was enraged at him for this. And Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time.

nasb@2Chronicles:16:3 @The LORD was with Jehoshaphat because he followed the example of his father David's earlier days and did not seek the Baals,

nasb@2Chronicles:21:7 @Now the destruction of Ahaziah was from God, in that he went to Joram. For when he came, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.

nasb@2Chronicles:21:8 @It came about when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab, he found the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers ministering to Ahaziah, and slew them.

nasb@2Chronicles:24:1 @Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

nasb@2Chronicles:24:3 @Now it came about as soon as the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, that he killed his servants who had slain his father the king.

nasb@2Chronicles:24:16 @As he was talking with him, the king said to him, "Have we appointed you a royal counselor? Stop! Why should you be struck down?" Then the prophet stopped and said, "I know that God has planned to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my counsel."

nasb@2Chronicles:24:18 @Joash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, " The thorn bush which was in Lebanon sent to the cedar which was in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son in marriage.' But there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon and trampled the thorn bush.

nasb@2Chronicles:24:20 @But Amaziah would not listen, for it was from God, that He might deliver them into the hand of Joash because they had sought the gods of Edom.

nasb@2Chronicles:24:22 @Judah was defeated by Israel, and they fled each to his tent.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:1 @And all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the place of his father Amaziah.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:3 @Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jechiliah of Jerusalem.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:12 @The total number of the heads of the households, of valiant warriors, was 2,600.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:13 @Under their direction was an elite army of 307,500, who could wage war with great power, to help the king against the enemy.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:15 @In Jerusalem he made engines of war invented by skillful men to be on the towers and on the corners for the purpose of shooting arrows and great stones. Hence his fame spread afar, for he was marvelously helped until he was strong.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:16 @But when he became strong, his heart was so proud that he acted corruptly, and he was unfaithful to the LORD his God, for he entered the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:19 @But Uzziah, with a censer in his hand for burning incense, was enraged; and while he was enraged with the priests, the leprosy broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, beside the altar of incense.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:20 @Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous on his forehead; and they hurried him out of there, and he himself also hastened to get out because the LORD had smitten him.

nasb@2Chronicles:25:21 @King Uzziah was a leper to the day of his death; and he lived in a separate house, being a leper, for he was cut off from the house of the LORD. And Jotham his son was over the king's house judging the people of the land.

nasb@2Chronicles:26:1 @Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jerushah the daughter of Zadok.

nasb@2Chronicles:26:8 @He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.

nasb@2Chronicles:27:1 @Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and he did not do right in the sight of the LORD as David his father had done.

nasb@2Chronicles:27:5 @Wherefore, the LORD his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Aram; and they defeated him and carried away from him a great number of captives and brought them to Damascus. And he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who inflicted him with heavy casualties.

nasb@2Chronicles:27:9 @But a prophet of the LORD was there, whose name was Oded; and he went out to meet the army which came to Samaria and said to them, "Behold, because the LORD, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, He has delivered them into your hand, and you have slain them in a rage which has even reached heaven.

nasb@2Chronicles:27:19 @For the LORD humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he had brought about a lack of restraint in Judah and was very unfaithful to the LORD.

nasb@2Chronicles:28:1 @Hezekiah became king when he was twenty-five years old; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.

nasb@2Chronicles:28:8" @Therefore the wrath of the LORD was against Judah and Jerusalem, and He has made them an object of terror, of horror, and of hissing, as you see with your own eyes.

nasb@2Chronicles:28:25 @He then stationed the Levites in the house of the LORD with cymbals, with harps and with lyres, according to the command of David and of Gad the king's seer, and of Nathan the prophet; for the command was from the LORD through His prophets.

nasb@2Chronicles:28:28 @While the whole assembly worshiped, the singers also sang and the trumpets sounded; all this continued until the burnt offering was finished.

nasb@2Chronicles:28:32 @The number of the burnt offerings which the assembly brought was 70 bulls, 100 rams, and 200 lambs; all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.

nasb@2Chronicles:28:34 @But the priests were too few, so that they were unable to skin all the burnt offerings; therefore their brothers the Levites helped them until the work was completed and until the other priests had consecrated themselves. For the Levites were more conscientious to consecrate themselves than the priests.

nasb@2Chronicles:28:35 @There were also many burnt offerings with the fat of the peace offerings and with the libations for the burnt offerings. Thus the service of the house of the LORD was established again.

nasb@2Chronicles:29:4 @Thus the thing was right in the sight of the king and all the assembly.

nasb@2Chronicles:29:5 @So they established a decree to circulate a proclamation throughout all Israel from Beersheba even to Dan, that they should come to celebrate the Passover to the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem. For they had not celebrated it in great numbers as it was prescribed.

nasb@2Chronicles:29:12 @The hand of God was also on Judah to give them one heart to do what the king and the princes commanded by the word of the LORD.

nasb@2Chronicles:29:17 @For there were many in the assembly who had not consecrated themselves; therefore, the Levites were over the slaughter of the Passover lambs for everyone who was unclean, in order to consecrate them to the LORD.

nasb@2Chronicles:29:26 @So there was great joy in Jerusalem, because there was nothing like this in Jerusalem since the days of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel.

nasb@2Chronicles:29:27 @Then the Levitical priests arose and blessed the people; and their voice was heard and their prayer came to His holy dwelling place, to heaven.

nasb@2Chronicles:30:1 @Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah, broke the pillars in pieces, cut down the Asherim and pulled down the high places and the altars throughout all Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the sons of Israel returned to their cities, each to his possession.

nasb@2Chronicles:30:12 @They faithfully brought in the contributions and the tithes and the consecrated things; and Conaniah the Levite was the officer in charge of them and his brother Shimei was second.

nasb@2Chronicles:30:13 @Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath and Benaiah were overseers under the authority of Conaniah and Shimei his brother by the appointment of King Hezekiah, and Azariah was the chief officer of the house of God.

nasb@2Chronicles:30:14 @Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the keeper of the eastern gate, was over the freewill offerings of God, to apportion the contributions for the LORD and the most holy things.

nasb@2Chronicles:30:20 @Thus Hezekiah did throughout all Judah; and he did what was good, right and true before the LORD his God.

nasb@2Chronicles:31:9 @After this Sennacherib king of Assyria sent his servants to Jerusalem while he was besieging Lachish with all his forces with him, against Hezekiah king of Judah and against all Judah who were at Jerusalem, saying,

nasb@2Chronicles:31:14 @' Who was there among all the gods of those nations which my fathers utterly destroyed who could deliver his people out of my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you from my hand?

nasb@2Chronicles:31:15 @'Now therefore, do not let Hezekiah deceive you or mislead you like this, and do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people from my hand or from the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God deliver you from my hand?'"

nasb@2Chronicles:31:23 @And many were bringing gifts to the LORD at Jerusalem and choice presents to Hezekiah king of Judah, so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations thereafter.

nasb@2Chronicles:31:25 @But Hezekiah gave no return for the benefit he received, because his heart was proud; therefore wrath came on him and on Judah and Jerusalem.

nasb@2Chronicles:31:30 @It was Hezekiah who stopped the upper outlet of the waters of Gihon and directed them to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all that he did.

nasb@2Chronicles:31:31 @Even in the matter of the envoys of the rulers of Babylon, who sent to him to inquire of the wonder that had happened in the land, God left him alone only to test him, that He might know all that was in his heart.

nasb@2Chronicles:32:1 @Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.

nasb@2Chronicles:32:12 @When he was in distress, he entreated the LORD his God and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.

nasb@2Chronicles:32:13 @When he prayed to Him, He was moved by his entreaty and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD was God.

nasb@2Chronicles:32:19 @His prayer also and how God was entreated by him, and all his sin, his unfaithfulness, and the sites on which he built high places and erected the Asherim and the carved images, before he humbled himself, behold, they are written in the records of the Hozai.

nasb@2Chronicles:33:1 @Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.

nasb@2Chronicles:33:3 @For in the eighth year of his reign while he was still a youth, he began to seek the God of his father David; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the Asherim, the carved images and the molten images.

nasb@2Chronicles:33:9 @They came to Hilkiah the high priest and delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites, the doorkeepers, had collected from Manasseh and Ephraim, and from all the remnant of Israel, and from all Judah and Benjamin and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

nasb@2Chronicles:33:16 @Then Shaphan brought the book to the king and reported further word to the king, saying, "Everything that was entrusted to your servants they are doing.

nasb@2Chronicles:33:17" @They have also emptied out the money which was found in the house of the LORD, and have delivered it into the hands of the supervisors and the workmen."

nasb@2Chronicles:33:27" @ Because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before God when you heard His words against this place and against its inhabitants, and because you humbled yourself before Me, tore your clothes and wept before Me, I truly have heard you," declares the LORD.

nasb@2Chronicles:33:30 @The king went up to the house of the LORD and all the men of Judah, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the priests, the Levites and all the people, from the greatest to the least; and he read in their hearing all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of the LORD.

nasb@2Chronicles:34:10 @So the service was prepared, and the priests stood at their stations and the Levites by their divisions according to the king's command.

nasb@2Chronicles:34:16 @So all the service of the LORD was prepared on that day to celebrate the Passover, and to offer burnt offerings on the altar of the LORD according to the command of King Josiah.

nasb@2Chronicles:34:19 @In the eighteenth year of Josiah's reign this Passover was celebrated.

nasb@2Chronicles:34:24 @So his servants took him out of the chariot and carried him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Jerusalem where he died and was buried in the tombs of his fathers. All Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.

nasb@Ezra:2:11 @They sang, praising and giving thanks to the LORD, saying, " For He is good, for His lovingkindness is upon Israel forever." And all the people shouted with a great shout when they praised the LORD because the foundation of the house of the LORD was laid.

nasb@Ezra:4:1 @When the prophets, Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied to the Jews who were in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, who was over them,

nasb@Ezra:4:5 @But the eye of their God was on the elders of the Jews, and they did not stop them until a report could come to Darius, and then a written reply be returned concerning it.

nasb@Ezra:4:7 @They sent a report to him in which it was written thus- "To Darius the king, all peace.

nasb@Ezra:4:11" @Thus they answered us, saying, 'We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth and are rebuilding the temple that was built many years ago, which a great king of Israel built and finished.

nasb@Ezra:5:1 @Then King Darius issued a decree, and search was made in the archives, where the treasures were stored in Babylon.

nasb@Ezra:5:2 @In Ecbatana in the fortress, which is in the province of Media, a scroll was found and there was written in it as follows- "Memorandum--

nasb@Ezra:7:22 @For I was ashamed to request from the king troops and horsemen to protect us from the enemy on the way, because we had said to the king, " The hand of our God is favorably disposed to all those who seek Him, but His power and His anger are against all those who forsake Him."

nasb@Ezra:7:31 @Then we journeyed from the river Ahava on the twelfth of the first month to go to Jerusalem; and the hand of our God was over us, and He delivered us from the hand of the enemy and the ambushes by the way.

nasb@Ezra:7:33 @On the fourth day the silver and the gold and the utensils were weighed out in the house of our God into the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest, and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them were the Levites, Jozabad the son of Jeshua and Noadiah the son of Binnui.

nasb@Ezra:7:34 @Everything was numbered and weighed, and all the weight was recorded at that time.

nasb@Ezra:8:1 @Now while Ezra was praying and making confession, weeping and prostrating himself before the house of God, a very large assembly, men, women and children, gathered to him from Israel; for the people wept bitterly.

nasb@Ezra:8:6 @Then Ezra rose from before the house of God and went into the chamber of Jehohanan the son of Eliashib. Although he went there, he did not eat bread nor drink water, for he was mourning over the unfaithfulness of the exiles.

nasb@Ezra:8:9 @So all the men of Judah and Benjamin assembled at Jerusalem within the three days. It was the ninth month on the twentieth of the month, and all the people sat in the open square before the house of God, trembling because of this matter and the heavy rain.

nasb@Nehemiah:2:1 @And it came about in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of King Artaxerxes, that wine was before him, and I took up the wine and gave it to the king. Now I had not been sad in his presence.

nasb@Nehemiah:2:8 @and a letter to Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the fortress which is by the temple, for the wall of the city and for the house to which I will go."

nasb@Nehemiah:2:10 @When Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite official heard about it, it was very displeasing to them that someone had come to seek the welfare of the sons of Israel.

nasb@Nehemiah:2:11 @So I came to Jerusalem and was there three days.

nasb@Nehemiah:2:12 @And I arose in the night, I and a few men with me. I did not tell anyone what my God was putting into my mind to do for Jerusalem and there was no animal with me except the animal on which I was riding.

nasb@Nehemiah:2:14 @Then I passed on to the Fountain Gate and the King's Pool, but there was no place for my mount to pass.

nasb@Nehemiah:4:3 @Now Tobiah the Ammonite was near him and he said, "Even what they are building-- if a fox should jump on it, he would break their stone wall down!"

nasb@Nehemiah:4:6 @So we built the wall and the whole wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.

nasb@Nehemiah:4:10 @Thus in Judah it was said, "The strength of the burden bearers is failing, Yet there is much rubbish; And we ourselves are unable To rebuild the wall."

nasb@Nehemiah:4:15 @When our enemies heard that it was known to us, and that God had frustrated their plan, then all of us returned to the wall, each one to his work.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:1 @Now there was a great outcry of the people and of their wives against their Jewish brothers.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:6 @Then I was very angry when I had heard their outcry and these words.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:14 @Moreover, from the day that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year to the thirty-second year of King Artaxerxes, for twelve years, neither I nor my kinsmen have eaten the governor's food allowance.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:18 @Now that which was prepared for each day was one ox and six choice sheep, also birds were prepared for me; and once in ten days all sorts of wine were furnished in abundance.

nasb@Nehemiah:6:1 @Now when it was reported to Sanballat, Tobiah, to Geshem the Arab and to the rest of our enemies that I had rebuilt the wall, and that no breach remained in it, although at that time I had not set up the doors in the gates,

nasb@Nehemiah:6:18 @For many in Judah were bound by oath to him because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah the son of Arah, and his son Jehohanan had married the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah.

nasb@Nehemiah:13:13 @In charge of the storehouses I appointed Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah of the Levites, and in addition to them was Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah; for they were considered reliable, and it was their task to distribute to their kinsmen.

nasb@Nehemiah:13:24 @As for their children, half spoke in the language of Ashdod, and none of them was able to speak the language of Judah, but the language of his own people.

nasb@Nehemiah:13:26" @ Did not Solomon king of Israel sin regarding these things? Yet among the many nations there was no king like him, and he was loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel; nevertheless the foreign women caused even him to sin.

nasb@Nehemiah:13:28 @Even one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was a son-in-law of Sanballat the Horonite, so I drove him away from me.

nasb@Esther:1:2 @in those days as King Ahasuerus sat on his royal throne which was at the citadel in Susa,

nasb@Esther:1:7 @Drinks were served in golden vessels of various kinds, and the royal wine was plentiful according to the king's bounty.

nasb@Esther:1:8 @The drinking was done according to the law, there was no compulsion, for so the king had given orders to each official of his household that he should do according to the desires of each person.

nasb@Esther:1:10 @On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar and Carkas, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus,

nasb@Esther:1:11 @to bring Queen Vashti before the king with her royal crown in order to display her beauty to the people and the princes, for she was beautiful.

nasb@Esther:1:13 @Then the king said to the wise men who understood the times--for it was the custom of the king so to speak before all who knew law and justice

nasb@Esther:2:5 @Now there was at the citadel in Susa a Jew whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite,

nasb@Esther:2:7 @He was bringing up Hadassah, that is Esther, his uncle's daughter, for she had no father or mother. Now the young lady was beautiful of form and face, and when her father and her mother died, Mordecai took her as his own daughter.

nasb@Esther:2:8 @So it came about when the command and decree of the king were heard and many young ladies were gathered to the citadel of Susa into the custody of Hegai, that Esther was taken to the king's palace into the custody of Hegai, who was in charge of the women.

nasb@Esther:2:11 @Every day Mordecai walked back and forth in front of the court of the harem to learn how Esther was and how she fared.

nasb@Esther:2:13 @the young lady would go in to the king in this way- anything that she desired was given her to take with her from the harem to the king's palace.

nasb@Esther:2:14 @In the evening she would go in and in the morning she would return to the second harem, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's eunuch who was in charge of the concubines. She would not again go in to the king unless the king delighted in her and she was summoned by name.

nasb@Esther:2:15 @Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai who had taken her as his daughter, came to go in to the king, she did not request anything except what Hegai, the king's eunuch who was in charge of the women, advised. And Esther found favor in the eyes of all who saw her.

nasb@Esther:2:16 @So Esther was taken to King Ahasuerus to his royal palace in the tenth month which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.

nasb@Esther:2:19 @When the virgins were gathered together the second time, then Mordecai was sitting at the king's gate.

nasb@Esther:2:21 @In those days, while Mordecai was sitting at the king's gate, Bigthan and Teresh, two of the king's officials from those who guarded the door, became angry and sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

nasb@Esther:2:23 @Now when the plot was investigated and found to be so, they were both hanged on a gallows; and it was written in the Book of the Chronicles in the king's presence.

nasb@Esther:3:4 @Now it was when they had spoken daily to him and he would not listen to them, that they told Haman to see whether Mordecai's reason would stand; for he had told them that he was a Jew.

nasb@Esther:3:5 @When Haman saw that Mordecai neither bowed down nor paid homage to him, Haman was filled with rage.

nasb@Esther:3:7 @In the first month, which is the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, Pur, that is the lot, was cast before Haman from day to day and from month to month, until the twelfth month, that is the month Adar.

nasb@Esther:3:12 @Then the king's scribes were summoned on the thirteenth day of the first month, and it was written just as Haman commanded to the king's satraps, to the governors who were over each province and to the princes of each people, each province according to its script, each people according to its language, being written in the name of King Ahasuerus and sealed with the king's signet ring.

nasb@Esther:3:14 @A copy of the edict to be issued as law in every province was published to all the peoples so that they should be ready for this day.

nasb@Esther:3:15 @The couriers went out impelled by the king's command while the decree was issued at the citadel in Susa; and while the king and Haman sat down to drink, the city of Susa was in confusion.

nasb@Esther:4:2 @He went as far as the king's gate, for no one was to enter the king's gate clothed in sackcloth.

nasb@Esther:4:3 @In each and every province where the command and decree of the king came, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, weeping and wailing; and many lay on sackcloth and ashes.

nasb@Esther:4:5 @Then Esther summoned Hathach from the king's eunuchs, whom the king had appointed to attend her, and ordered him to go to Mordecai to learn what this was and why it was.

nasb@Esther:5:1 @Now it came about on the third day that Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's palace in front of the king's rooms, and the king was sitting on his royal throne in the throne room, opposite the entrance to the palace.

nasb@Esther:5:2 @When the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, she obtained favor in his sight; and the king extended to Esther the golden scepter which was in his hand. So Esther came near and touched the top of the scepter.

nasb@Esther:5:9 @Then Haman went out that day glad and pleased of heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate and that he did not stand up or tremble before him, Haman was filled with anger against Mordecai.

nasb@Esther:6:2 @It was found written what Mordecai had reported concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's eunuchs who were doorkeepers, that they had sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

nasb@Esther:7:8 @Now when the king returned from the palace garden into the place where they were drinking wine, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, "Will he even assault the queen with me in the house?" As the word went out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.

nasb@Esther:8:1 @On that day King Ahasuerus gave the house of Haman, the enemy of the Jews, to Queen Esther; and Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had disclosed what he was to her.

nasb@Esther:8:9 @So the king's scribes were called at that time in the third month (that is, the month Sivan), on the twenty-third day; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded to the Jews, the satraps, the governors and the princes of the provinces which extended from India to Ethiopia, 127 provinces, to every province according to its script, and to every people according to their language as well as to the Jews according to their script and their language.

nasb@Esther:8:13 @A copy of the edict to be issued as law in each and every province was published to all the peoples, so that the Jews would be ready for this day to avenge themselves on their enemies.

nasb@Esther:8:14 @The couriers, hastened and impelled by the king's command, went out, riding on the royal steeds; and the decree was given out at the citadel in Susa.

nasb@Esther:8:16 @For the Jews there was light and gladness and joy and honor.

nasb@Esther:8:17 @In each and every province and in each and every city, wherever the king's commandment and his decree arrived, there was gladness and joy for the Jews, a feast and a holiday. And many among the peoples of the land became Jews, for the dread of the Jews had fallen on them.

nasb@Esther:9:1 @Now in the twelfth month (that is, the month Adar), on the thirteenth day when the king's command and edict were about to be executed, on the day when the enemies of the Jews hoped to gain the mastery over them, it was turned to the contrary so that the Jews themselves gained the mastery over those who hated them.

nasb@Esther:9:4 @Indeed, Mordecai was great in the king's house, and his fame spread throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.

nasb@Esther:9:11 @On that day the number of those who were killed at the citadel in Susa was reported to the king.

nasb@Esther:9:14 @So the king commanded that it should be done so; and an edict was issued in Susa, and Haman's ten sons were hanged.

nasb@Esther:9:17 @This was done on the thirteenth day of the month Adar, and on the fourteenth day they rested and made it a day of feasting and rejoicing.

nasb@Esther:9:22 @because on those days the Jews rid themselves of their enemies, and it was a month which was turned for them from sorrow into gladness and from mourning into a holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and rejoicing and sending portions of food to one another and gifts to the poor.

nasb@Esther:9:32 @The command of Esther established these customs for Purim, and it was written in the book.

nasb@Esther:10:3 @For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and in favor with his many kinsmen, one who sought the good of his people and one who spoke for the welfare of his whole nation.

nasb@Job:1:1 @There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and that man was blameless, upright, fearing God and turning away from evil.
