bbe@Isaiah:1:4 @O nation full of sin, a people weighted down with crime, a generation of evil-doers, false-hearted children: they have gone away from the Lord, they have no respect for the Holy One of Israel, their hearts are turned back from him.

bbe@Isaiah:1:9 @If the Lord of armies had not kept some at least of us safe, we would have been like Sodom, and the fate of Gomorrah would have been ours.

bbe@Isaiah:1:11 @What use to me is the number of the offerings which you give me? says the Lord; your burned offerings of sheep, and the best parts of fat cattle, are a weariness to me; I take no pleasure in the blood of oxen, or of lambs, or of he-goats.

bbe@Isaiah:1:14 @Your new moons and your regular feasts are a grief to my soul: they are a weight in my spirit; I am crushed under them.

bbe@Isaiah:1:17 @Take pleasure in well-doing; let your ways be upright, keep down the cruel, give a right decision for the child who has no father, see to the cause of the widow.

bbe@Isaiah:2:3 @And the peoples will say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob: and he will give us knowledge of his ways, and we will be guided by his word; for out of Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

bbe@Isaiah:2:4 @And he will be the judge between the nations, and the peoples will be ruled by his decisions: and their swords will be turned into plough-blades, and their spears into vine-knives: no longer will the nations be turning their swords against one another, and the knowledge of war will be gone for ever.

bbe@Isaiah:2:10 @Go into a hole in the rock, covering yourselves with dust, in fear of the Lord, before the glory of his power.

bbe@Isaiah:2:15 @And on every high tower, and on every strong wall;

bbe@Isaiah:2:19 @And men will go into cracks of the rocks, and into holes of the earth, for fear of the Lord, and before the glory of his power, when he comes out of his place, shaking the earth with his strength.

bbe@Isaiah:2:21 @To take cover in the cracks of the rocks, and in the holes of the hills, for fear of the Lord, and before the glory of his power, when he comes out of his place, shaking the earth with his strength.

bbe@Isaiah:3:3 @The captain of fifty, and the man of high position, and the wise guide, and the wonder-worker, and he who makes use of secret powers.

bbe@Isaiah:3:18 @In that day the Lord will take away the glory of their foot-rings, and their sun-jewels, and their moon-ornaments,

bbe@Isaiah:3:20 @The head-bands, and the arm-chains, and the worked bands, and the perfume-boxes, and the jewels with secret powers,

bbe@Isaiah:3:21 @The rings, and the nose-jewels,

bbe@Isaiah:3:24 @And in the place of sweet spices will be an evil smell, and for a fair band a thick cord; for a well-dressed head there will be the cutting-off of the hair, and for a beautiful robe there will be the clothing of sorrow; the mark of the prisoner in place of the ornaments of the free.

bbe@Isaiah:3:26 @And in the public places of her towns will be sorrow and weeping; and she will be seated on the earth, waste and uncovered.

bbe@Isaiah:5:2 @And after working the earth of it with a spade, he took away its stones, and put in it a very special vine; and he put up a watchtower in the middle of it, hollowing out in the rock a place for the grape-crushing; and he was hoping that it would give the best grapes, but it gave common grapes.

bbe@Isaiah:5:3 @And now, you people of Jerusalem and you men of Judah, be the judges between me and my vine-garden.

bbe@Isaiah:5:19 @Who say, Let him do his work quickly, let him make it sudden, so that we may see it: let the design of the Holy One of Israel come near, so that it may be clear to us.

bbe@Isaiah:5:20 @Cursed are those who give the name of good to evil, and of evil to what is good: who make light dark, and dark light: who make bitter sweet, and sweet bitter!

bbe@Isaiah:5:24 @For this cause, as the waste of the grain is burned up by tongues of fire, and as the dry grass goes down before the flame, so their root will be like the dry stems of grain, and their flower will go up in dust: because they have gone against the law of the Lord of armies, and have given no honour to the word of the Holy One of Israel.

bbe@Isaiah:5:25 @For this reason the wrath of the Lord has been burning against his people, and his hand has been stretched out against them in punishment, and the hills were shaking, and their dead bodies were like waste in the open places of the town.

bbe@Isaiah:5:27 @There is no weariness among them, and no man is feeble-footed: they come without resting or sleeping, and the cord of their shoes is not broken.

bbe@Isaiah:6:2 @Over him were the winged ones: every one had six wings; two for covering his face, two for covering his feed, and two for flight.

bbe@Isaiah:6:4 @And the bases of the door-pillars were shaking at the sound of his cry, and the house was full of smoke.

bbe@Isaiah:6:10 @Make the hearts of this people fat, and let their ears be stopped, and their eyes shut; for fear that they may see with their eyes, and be hearing with their ears, and their heart may become wise, and they may be turned to me and made well.

bbe@Isaiah:6:11 @Then I said, Lord, how long? And he said in answer, Till the towns are waste and unpeopled, and the houses have no men, and the land becomes completely waste,

bbe@Isaiah:7:1 @Now it came about in the days of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin, the king of Aram, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war against it, but were not able to overcome it.

bbe@Isaiah:7:2 @And word came to the family of David that Aram had put up its tents in Ephraim. And the king's heart, and the hearts of his people, were moved, like the trees of the wood shaking in the wind.

bbe@Isaiah:7:15 @Butter and honey will be his food, when he is old enough to make a decision between evil and good.

bbe@Isaiah:7:16 @For before the child is old enough to make a decision between evil and good, the land whose two kings you are now fearing will have become waste

bbe@Isaiah:7:20 @In that day will the Lord take away the hair of the head and of the feet, as well as the hair of the face, with a blade got for a price from the other side of the River; even with the king of Assyria.

bbe@Isaiah:7:23 @And it will be in that day that in every place where before there were a thousand vines valued at a thousand shekels of silver, there will be nothing but blackberries and thorns.

bbe@Isaiah:7:25 @And they will send out the oxen and the sheep on all the hills which before were worked with the spade,... fear of blackberries and thorns.

bbe@Isaiah:8:3 @And I went in to my wife, and she became with child, and gave birth to a son. Then the Lord said to me, Give him the name Maher-shalal-hash-baz,

bbe@Isaiah:8:4 @For before the child is able to say, Father, or, Mother, the wealth of Damascus and the goods of Samaria will be taken away by the king of Assyria.

bbe@Isaiah:9:2 @The people who went in the dark have seen a great light, and for those who were living in the land of the deepest night, the light is shining.

bbe@Isaiah:9:10 @The bricks have come down, but we will put up buildings of cut stone in their place: the sycamores are cut down, but they will be changed to cedars.

bbe@Isaiah:9:12 @Aram on the east, and the Philistines on the west, who have come against Israel with open mouths. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

bbe@Isaiah:9:18 @For evil was burning like a fire; the blackberries and thorns were burned up; the thick woods took fire, rolling up in dark clouds of smoke.

bbe@Isaiah:9:19 @The land was dark with the wrath of the Lord of armies: the people were like those who take men's flesh for food.

bbe@Isaiah:9:21 @Manasseh was making a meal of Ephraim, and Ephraim of Manasseh; and together they were attacking Judah. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

bbe@Isaiah:10:2 @Who do wrong to the poor in their cause, and take away the right of the crushed among my people, so that they may have the property of widows, and get under their power those who have no father.

bbe@Isaiah:10:6 @I will send him against a nation of wrongdoers, and against the people of my wrath I will give him orders, to take their wealth in war, crushing them down like the dust in the streets.

bbe@Isaiah:10:10 @As my hand has come on the kingdoms of the images, whose pictured images were more in number than those of Jerusalem and Samaria;

bbe@Isaiah:10:13 @For he has said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my knowledge, for I am wise: and I have taken away the limits of the peoples' lands, and the stores of their wealth have become mine; and I have made towns low in the dust, sending destruction on those living in them;

bbe@Isaiah:10:14 @And I have put my hands on the wealth of the peoples, as on the place where a bird has put her eggs; and as a man may take the eggs from which a bird has gone, so I have taken all the earth for myself: and not a wing was moved, and not a mouth gave out a sound.

bbe@Isaiah:10:15 @Will the axe say high-sounding words against him who is using it, or the blade be full of pride against him who is cutting with it? As if a rod had the power of shaking him who is using it, or as if a stick might take up him who is not wood.

bbe@Isaiah:10:27 @And in that day the weight which he put on your back will be taken away, and his yoke broken from off your neck.

bbe@Isaiah:10:30 @Give a loud cry, daughter of Gallim; let Laishah give ear; let Anathoth give answer to her.

bbe@Isaiah:11:14 @And they will be united in attacking the Philistines on the west, and together they will take the goods of the children of the east: their hand will be on Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon will be under their rule.

bbe@Isaiah:12:1 @And in that day you will say I will give praise to you, O Lord; for though you were angry with me, your wrath is turned away, and I am comforted.

bbe@Isaiah:13:3 @I have given orders to my holy ones, I have sent out my men of war, those of mine who take pride in their power, to give effect to my wrath.

bbe@Isaiah:13:11 @And I will send punishment on the world for its evil, and on the sinners for their wrongdoing; and I will put an end to all pride, and will make low the power of the cruel.

bbe@Isaiah:13:22 @And wolves will be answering one another in their towers, and jackals in their houses of pleasure: her time is near, and her days of power will quickly be ended.

bbe@Isaiah:14:2 @And the people will take them with them to their place: and the children of Israel will give them a heritage in the Lord's land as men-servants and women-servants, making them prisoners whose prisoners they were; and they will be rulers over their masters.

bbe@Isaiah:14:10 @They all make answer and say to you, Have you become feeble like us? have you been made even as we are?

bbe@Isaiah:14:19 @But you, like a birth before its time, are stretched out with no resting-place in the earth; clothed with the bodies of the dead who have been put to the sword, who go down to the lowest parts of the underworld; a dead body, crushed under foot.

bbe@Isaiah:14:32 @What answer, then, will my people give to the representatives of the nation? That the Lord is the builder of Zion, and she will be a safe place for the poor of his people.

bbe@Isaiah:15:2 @The daughter of Dibon has gone up to the high places, weeping: Moab is sounding her cry of sorrow over Nebo, and over Medeba: everywhere the hair of the head and of the face is cut off.

bbe@Isaiah:15:3 @In their streets they are covering themselves with haircloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their public places, there is crying and bitter weeping.

bbe@Isaiah:15:5 @My heart is crying out for Moab; her people go in flight to Zoar, and to Eglath-shelishiyah: for they go up with weeping by the slope of Luhith; on the way to Horonaim they send up a cry of destruction.

bbe@Isaiah:15:7 @For this cause they will take away their wealth, and the stores they have got together, over the stream of the water-plants.

bbe@Isaiah:16:6 @We have had word of the pride of Moab, how great it is; how he is lifted up in pride and passion: his high words about himself are false.

bbe@Isaiah:16:7 @For this cause everyone in Moab will give cries of grief for Moab: crushed to the earth, they will be weeping for the men of Kir-hareseth.

bbe@Isaiah:16:8 @For the fields of Heshbon are waste, the vine of Sibmah is dead; the lords of nations were overcome by the produce of her vines; her vine-plants went as far as Jazer, and came even to the waste land; her branches were stretched out to the sea.

bbe@Isaiah:16:9 @For this cause my sorrow for the vine of Sibmah will be like the weeping for Jazer: my eyes are dropping water on you, O Heshbon and Elealeh! For they are sounding the war-cry over your summer fruits and the getting in of your grain;

bbe@Isaiah:17:3 @The strong tower has gone from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus: the rest of Aram will come to destruction, and be made like the glory of the children of Israel, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Isaiah:17:11 @In the day of your planting you were watching its growth, and in the morning your seed was flowering: but its fruit is wasted away in the day of grief and bitter sorrow.

bbe@Isaiah:18:5 @For before the time of getting in the grapes, after the opening of the bud, when the flower has become a grape ready for crushing, he will take away the small branches with knives, cutting down and taking away the wide-stretching branches.

bbe@Isaiah:19:22 @And the Lord will send punishment on Egypt, and will make them well again; and when they come back to the Lord he will give ear to their prayer and take away their disease.

bbe@Isaiah:20:6 @And those living by the sea will say in that day, See the fate of our hope to whom we went for help and salvation from the king of Assyria: what hope have we then of salvation?

bbe@Isaiah:21:8 @And the watchman gave a loud cry, O my lord, I am on the watchtower all day, and am placed in my watch every night:

bbe@Isaiah:21:9 @See, here come war-carriages with men, horsemen by twos: and in answer he said, Babylon is made low, is made low, and all her images are broken on the earth.

bbe@Isaiah:22:4 @For this cause I have said, Let your eyes be turned away from me in my bitter weeping; I will not be comforted for the wasting of the daughter of my people.

bbe@Isaiah:22:7 @And your most fertile valleys were full of war-carriages, and the horsemen took up their positions in front of the town.

bbe@Isaiah:22:8 @He took away the cover of Judah; and in that day you were looking with care at the store of arms in the house of the woods.

bbe@Isaiah:22:9 @And you saw all the broken places in the wall of the town of David: and you got together the waters of the lower pool.

bbe@Isaiah:22:11 @And you made a place between the two walls for storing the waters of the old pool: but you gave no thought to him who had done this, and were not looking to him by whom it had been purposed long before.

bbe@Isaiah:22:12 @And in that day the Lord, the Lord of armies, was looking for weeping, and cries of sorrow, cutting off of the hair, and putting on the clothing of grief:

bbe@Isaiah:22:13 @But in place of these there was joy and delight, oxen and sheep were being made ready for food, there was feasting and drinking: men said, Now is the time for food and wine, for tomorrow death comes.

bbe@Isaiah:22:25 @In that day, says the Lord of armies, will the nail fixed in a safe place give way; and it will be cut down, and in its fall the weight hanging on it will be cut off, for the Lord has said it.

bbe@Isaiah:23:3 @Who get in the seed of Shihor, whose wealth is the trade of the nations.

bbe@Isaiah:23:16 @Take an instrument of music, go about the town, O loose woman who has gone out from the memory of man; make sweet melody with songs, so that you may come back to men's minds.

bbe@Isaiah:24:20 @The earth will be moving uncertainly, like a man overcome by drink; it will be shaking like a tent; and the weight of its sin will be on it, crushing it down so that it will not get up again

bbe@Isaiah:25:1 @O Lord, you are my God; I will give praise to you, I will give honour to your name; for you have done great acts of power; your purposes in the past have been made true and certain in effect.

bbe@Isaiah:25:2 @For you have made a town a waste place: a strong town a mass of broken walls; the tower of the men of pride has come to an end; it will never be put up again.

bbe@Isaiah:25:6 @And in this mountain will the Lord of armies make for all peoples a feast of good things, a feast of wines long stored, of good things sweet to the taste, of wines long kept and tested.

bbe@Isaiah:25:8 @He has put an end to death for ever; and the Lord God will take away all weeping; and he will put an end to the shame of his people in all the earth: for the Lord has said it.

bbe@Isaiah:25:9 @And in that day it will be said, See, this is our God; we have been waiting for him, and he will be our saviour: this is the Lord in whom is our hope; we will be glad and have delight in his salvation

bbe@Isaiah:25:11 @And if he puts out his hands, like a man stretching out his hands in swimming, the Lord will make low his pride, however expert his designs.

bbe@Isaiah:25:12 @And the strong tower of your walls has been broken by him, made low, and crushed even to the dust.

bbe@Isaiah:26:1 @In that day will this song be made in the land of Judah: We have a strong town; he will make salvation our walls and towers.

bbe@Isaiah:26:8 @We have been waiting for you, O Lord; the desire of our soul is for the memory of your name.

bbe@Isaiah:26:13 @O Lord, our God, other lords than you have had rule over us; but in you only is our salvation, and no other name will we take on our lips.

bbe@Isaiah:26:16 @Lord, in trouble our eyes have been turned to you, we sent up a prayer when your punishment was on us.

bbe@Isaiah:26:17 @As a woman with child, whose time is near, is troubled, crying out in her pain; so have we been before you, O Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:26:18 @We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have given birth to wind; no salvation has come to the earth through us, and no children have come into the world.

bbe@Isaiah:27:4 @My passion is over: if the thorns were fighting against me, I would make an attack on them, and they would be burned up together.

bbe@Isaiah:27:5 @Or let him put himself under my power, and make peace with me.

bbe@Isaiah:27:6 @In days to come Jacob will take root: Israel will put out buds and flowers; and the face of the world will be full of fruit.

bbe@Isaiah:27:13 @And it will be in that day that a great horn will be sounded; and those who were wandering in the land of Assyria, and those who had been sent away into the land of Egypt, will come; and they will give worship to the Lord in the holy mountain at Jerusalem

bbe@Isaiah:28:1 @Ho! crown of pride of those who are given up to wine in Ephraim, and the dead flower of his glory which is on the head of those who are overcome by strong drink!

bbe@Isaiah:28:4 @And the dead flower of his glory, which is on the head of the fertile valley, will be like the first early fruit before the summer; which a man takes and puts in his mouth the minute he sees it.

bbe@Isaiah:28:15 @Because you have said, We have made death our friend, and with the underworld we have made an agreement; when the overflowing waters come through they will not come near us; for we are looking to false words for help, taking cover in what is untrue:

bbe@Isaiah:28:17 @And I will make right decision the measuring-line, and righteousness the weight: and the ice-storm will take away the safe place of false words, and the secret place will be covered by the flowing waters.

bbe@Isaiah:28:18 @And the help you were looking for from death will come to nothing, and your agreement with the underworld will be broken; when the overflowing waters come through, then you will be overcome by them.

bbe@Isaiah:29:2 @And I will send trouble on Ariel, and there will be weeping and cries of grief; and she will be to me as Ariel.

bbe@Isaiah:29:3 @And I will make war on you like David, and you will be shut in by earthworks, and I will make towers round you.

bbe@Isaiah:29:7 @And all the nations making war on Ariel, and all those who are fighting against her and shutting her in with their towers, will be like a dream, like a vision of the night.

bbe@Isaiah:29:16 @You are turning things upside down! Is the wet earth the same to you as the one who is forming it? will the thing made say of him who made it, He made me not: or the thing formed say of him who gave it form, He has no knowledge?

bbe@Isaiah:29:24 @Those whose hearts were turned away from him will get knowledge, and those who made an outcry against him will give attention to his teaching.

bbe@Isaiah:30:6 @The word about the Beasts of the South. Through the land of trouble and grief, the land of the she-lion and the voice of the lion, of the snake and the burning winged snake, they take their wealth on the backs of young asses, and their stores on camels, to a people in whom is no profit.

bbe@Isaiah:30:16 @Saying, No, for we will go in flight on horses; so you will certainly go in flight: and, We will go on the backs of quick-running beasts; so those who go after you will be quick-footed.

bbe@Isaiah:30:19 @O people, living in Zion, at Jerusalem, your weeping will be ended; he will certainly have mercy on you at the sound of your cry; when it comes to his ear, he will give you an answer

bbe@Isaiah:30:25 @And there will be rivers and streams of water on every tall mountain and on every high hill, in the day when great numbers are put to the sword, when the towers come down.

bbe@Isaiah:30:26 @And the light of the moon will be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times greater, as the light of seven days, in the day when the Lord puts oil on the wounds of his people, and makes them well from the blows they have undergone.

bbe@Isaiah:32:4 @The man of sudden impulses will become wise in heart, and he whose tongue is slow will get the power of talking clearly.

bbe@Isaiah:32:14 @For the fair houses will have no man living in them; the town which was full of noise will become a waste; the hill and the watchtower will be unpeopled for ever, a joy for the asses of the woods, a place of food for the flocks;

bbe@Isaiah:33:1 @Ho! you who make waste those who did not make you waste; acting falsely to those who were not false to you. When you have come to an end of wasting, you will be made waste, and after your false acts, they will do the same to you.

bbe@Isaiah:33:2 @O Lord, have mercy on us; for we have been waiting for your help: be our strength every morning, our salvation in time of trouble.

bbe@Isaiah:33:6 @And she will have no more fear of change, being full of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge: the fear of the Lord is her wealth.

bbe@Isaiah:33:7 @See, the men of war are sorrowing outside the town: those who came looking for peace are weeping bitterly.

bbe@Isaiah:33:10 @Now will I come forward, says the Lord; now will I be lifted up; now will my power be seen.

bbe@Isaiah:33:13 @Give ear, you who are far off, to what I have done: see my power, you who are near.

bbe@Isaiah:33:18 @Your heart will give thought to the cause of your fear: where is the scribe, where is he who made a record of the payments, where is he by whom the towers were numbered?

bbe@Isaiah:33:23 @Your cords have become loose; they were not able to make strong the support of their sails, the sail was not stretched out: then the blind will take much property, the feeble-footed will make division of the goods of war.

bbe@Isaiah:34:11 @But the birds of the waste land will have their place there; it will be a heritage for the bittern and the raven: and it will be measured out with line and weight as a waste land.

bbe@Isaiah:34:13 @And thorns will come up in her fair houses, and waste plants in her strong towers: and foxes will make their holes there, and it will be a meeting-place for ostriches.

bbe@Isaiah:35:1 @The waste land and the dry places will be glad; the lowland will have joy and be full of flowers.

bbe@Isaiah:35:2 @It will be flowering like the rose; it will be full of delight and songs; the glory of Lebanon will be given to it; the pride of Carmel and Sharon: they will see the glory of the Lord, the power of our God.

bbe@Isaiah:35:7 @And the burning sand will become a pool, and the dry earth springs of waters: the fields where the sheep take their food will become wet land, and water-plants will take the place of grass.

bbe@Isaiah:36:11 @Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to the Rab-shakeh, Please make use of the Aramaean language in talking to your servants, for we are used to it, and do not make use of the Jews' language in the hearing of the people on the wall.

bbe@Isaiah:36:21 @But they kept quiet and gave him no answer: for the king's order was, Give him no answer.

bbe@Isaiah:37:1 @And on hearing it Hezekiah took off his robe and put on haircloth and went into the house of the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:37:8 @So the Rab-shakeh went back, and when he got there the king of Assyria was making war against Libnah: for it had come to his ears that the king of Assyria had gone away from Lachish.

bbe@Isaiah:37:12 @Did the gods of the nations keep safe those on whom my fathers sent destruction, Gozan and Haran and Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?

bbe@Isaiah:37:14 @And Hezekiah took the letter from the hands of those who had come with it; and after reading it, Hezekiah went up to the house of the Lord, opening the letter there before the Lord,

bbe@Isaiah:37:16 @O Lord of armies, the God of Israel, seated between the winged ones, you only are the God of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth.

bbe@Isaiah:37:19 @And have given their gods to the fire: for they were no gods, but wood and stone, the work of men's hands; so they have given them to destruction.

bbe@Isaiah:37:27 @This is why their townsmen had no power, they were broken and put to shame; they were like the grass of the field, or a green plant; like the grass on the house-tops, which a cold wind makes waste.

bbe@Isaiah:37:36 @And the angel of the Lord went out and put to death in the army of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand men: and when the people got up early in the morning, there was nothing to be seen but dead bodies.

bbe@Isaiah:37:37 @Sennacherib, king of Assyria, went back to his place at Nineveh.

bbe@Isaiah:37:38 @And it came about, when he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer put him to death with the sword, and they went in flight into the land of Ararat. And Esar-haddon, his son, became king in his place.

bbe@Isaiah:38:3 @O Lord, keep in mind how I have been true to you with all my heart, and have done what is good in your eyes. And Hezekiah gave way to bitter weeping.

bbe@Isaiah:38:5 @Go to Hezekiah, and say, The Lord, the God of David, your father, says, Your prayer has come to my ears, and I have seen your weeping: see, I will give you fifteen more years of life.

bbe@Isaiah:38:8 @See, I will make the shade which has gone down on the steps of Ahaz with the sun, go back ten steps. So the shade went back the ten steps by which it had gone down.

bbe@Isaiah:38:16 @O Lord, for this cause I am waiting for you, give rest to my spirit: make me well again, and let me come back to life.

bbe@Isaiah:38:20 @O Lord, quickly be my saviour; so we will make my songs to corded instruments all the days of our lives in the house of the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:38:21 @And Isaiah said, Let them take a cake of figs, and put it on the diseased place, and he will get well.

bbe@Isaiah:39:1 @At that time Merodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters with an offering to Hezekiah, because he had news that Hezekiah had been ill, and was well again.

bbe@Isaiah:39:2 @And Hezekiah was glad at their coming, and let them see all his store of wealth, the silver and the gold and the spices and the oil, and all the house of his arms, and everything there was in his stores: there was nothing in all his house or his kingdom which he did not let them see.

bbe@Isaiah:39:4 @And he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah said in answer, They saw everything in my house: there is nothing among my stores which I did not let them see.

bbe@Isaiah:40:6 @A voice of one saying, Give a cry! And I said, What is my cry to be? All flesh is grass, and all its strength like the flower of the field.

bbe@Isaiah:40:7 @The grass becomes dry, the flower is dead; because the breath of the Lord goes over it: truly the people is grass.

bbe@Isaiah:40:8 @The grass is dry, the flower is dead; but the word of our God is eternal.

bbe@Isaiah:40:10 @See, the Lord God will come as a strong one, ruling in power: see, those made free by him are with him, and those whom he has made safe go before him.

bbe@Isaiah:40:12 @In the hollow of whose hand have the waters been measured? and who is able to take the heavens in his stretched-out fingers? who has got together the dust of the earth in a measure? who has taken the weight of the mountains, or put the hills into the scales?

bbe@Isaiah:40:26 @Let your eyes be lifted up on high, and see: who has made these? He who sends out their numbered army: who has knowledge of all their names: by whose great strength, because he is strong in power, all of them are in their places.

bbe@Isaiah:40:29 @He gives power to the feeble, increasing the strength of him who has no force.

bbe@Isaiah:40:31 @But those who are waiting for the Lord will have new strength; they will get wings like eagles: running, they will not be tired, and walking, they will have no weariness.

bbe@Isaiah:41:5 @The sea-lands saw it, and were in fear; the ends of the earth were shaking: they came near.

bbe@Isaiah:41:22 @Let the future be made clear to us: give us news of the past things, so that we may give thought to them; or of the things to come, so that we may see if they are true.

bbe@Isaiah:41:23 @Give us word of what will be after this, so that we may be certain that you are gods: yes, do good or do evil, so that we may all see it and be surprised.

bbe@Isaiah:41:25 @I have sent for one from the north, and from the dawn he has come; in my name he will get rulers together and go against them; they will be like dust, even as the wet earth is stamped on by the feet of the potter.

bbe@Isaiah:41:26 @Who has given knowledge of it from the first, so that we may be certain of it? and from the start, so that we may say, His word is true? There is no one who gives news, or says anything, or who gives ear to your words.

bbe@Isaiah:41:28 @And I saw that there was no man, even no wise man among them, who might give an answer to my questions.

bbe@Isaiah:43:2 @When you go through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not go over you: when you go through the fire, you will not be burned; and the flame will have no power over you.

bbe@Isaiah:43:5 @Have no fear, for I am with you: I will take your seed from the east, and get you together from the west;

bbe@Isaiah:43:24 @You have not got me sweet-smelling plants with your money, or given me pleasure with the fat of your offerings: but you have made me a servant to your sins, and you have made me tired with your evil doings.

bbe@Isaiah:43:26 @Put me in mind of this; let us take up the cause between us: put forward your cause, so that you may be seen to be in the right.

bbe@Isaiah:44:4 @And they will come up like grass in a well-watered field, like water-plants by the streams.

bbe@Isaiah:44:11 @Truly, all those who make use of secret arts will be put to shame, and their words of power are only words of men: let them all come forward together; they will all be in fear and be put to shame.

bbe@Isaiah:45:3 @And I will give you the stores of the dark, and the wealth of secret places, so that you may be certain that I am the Lord, who gave you your name, even the God of Israel.

bbe@Isaiah:45:6 @So that they may see from the east and from the west that there is no God but me: I am the Lord, and there is no other.

bbe@Isaiah:45:9 @Cursed is he who has an argument with his Maker, the pot which has an argument with the Potter! Will the wet earth say to him who is working with it, What are you doing, that your work has nothing by which it may be gripped?

bbe@Isaiah:45:24 @Only in the Lord will Jacob overcome and be strong: together all those who were angry with him will be put to shame and come to destruction.

bbe@Isaiah:46:1 @Bel is bent down, Nebo is falling; their images are on the beasts and on the cattle: the things which you took about have become a weight to the tired beast.

bbe@Isaiah:46:2 @They are bent down, they are falling together: they were not able to keep their images safe, but they themselves have been taken prisoner.

bbe@Isaiah:46:7 @They put him on their backs, and take him up, and put him in his fixed place, from which he may not be moved; if a man gives a cry for help to him, he is unable to give an answer, or get him out of his trouble.

bbe@Isaiah:47:1 @Come and take your seat in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; come down from your seat of power, and take your place on the earth, O daughter of the Chaldaeans: for you will never again seem soft and delicate.

bbe@Isaiah:47:6 @I was angry with my people, I put shame on my heritage, and gave them into your hands: you had no mercy on them; you put a cruel yoke on those who were old;

bbe@Isaiah:47:14 @Truly, they have become like dry stems, they have been burned in the fire; they are not able to keep themselves safe from the power of the flame: it is not a coal for warming them, or a fire by which a man may be seated.

bbe@Isaiah:48:13 @Yes, by my hand was the earth placed on its base, and by my right hand the heavens were stretched out; at my word they take up their places.

bbe@Isaiah:49:4 @And I said, I have undergone weariness for nothing, I have given my strength for no purpose or profit: but still the Lord will take up my cause, and my God will give me my reward.

bbe@Isaiah:49:12 @See, these are coming from far; and these from the north and the west; and these from the land of Sinim.

bbe@Isaiah:49:21 @Then you will say in your heart, Who has given me all these children? when my children had been taken from me, and I was no longer able to have others, who took care of these? when I was by myself, where then were these?

bbe@Isaiah:49:26 @And the flesh of your attackers will be taken by themselves for food; and they will take their blood for drink, as if it was sweet wine: and all men will see that I the Lord am your saviour, even he who takes up your cause, the Strong One of Jacob.

bbe@Isaiah:50:1 @This is the word of the Lord: Where is the statement which I gave your mother when I put her away? or to which of my creditors have I given you for money? It was for your sins that you were given into the hands of others, and for your evil-doing was your mother put away.

bbe@Isaiah:50:2 @Why, then, when I came, was there no man? and no one to give answer to my voice? has my hand become feeble, so that it is unable to take up your cause? or have I no power to make you free? See, at my word the sea becomes dry, I make the rivers a waste land: their fish are dead for need of water, and make an evil smell.

bbe@Isaiah:50:6 @I was offering my back to those who gave me blows, and my face to those who were pulling out my hair: I did not keep my face covered from marks of shame.

bbe@Isaiah:51:1 @Give ear to me, you who are searching for righteousness, who are looking for the Lord: see the rock from which you were cut out, and the hole out of which you were taken.

bbe@Isaiah:51:13 @And you have given no thought to the Lord your Maker, by whom the heavens were stretched out, and the earth placed on its base; and you went all day in fear of the wrath of the cruel one, when he was making ready for your destruction. And where is the wrath of the cruel one?

bbe@Isaiah:51:19 @These two things have come on you; who will be weeping for you? wasting and destruction; death from need of food, and from the sword; how may you be comforted?

bbe@Isaiah:51:23 @And I will put it into the hand of your cruel masters, and of those whose yoke has been hard on you; who have said to your soul, Down on your face! so that we may go over you: and you have given your backs like the earth, even like the street, for them to go over.

bbe@Isaiah:52:2 @Make yourself clean from the dust; up! and take the seat of your power, O Jerusalem: the bands of your neck are loose, O prisoned daughter of Zion.

bbe@Isaiah:52:3 @For the Lord says, You were given for nothing, and you will be made free without price.

bbe@Isaiah:52:4 @For the Lord God says, My people went down at first into Egypt, to get a place for themselves there: and the Assyrian put a cruel yoke on them without cause.

bbe@Isaiah:52:13 @See, my servant will do well in his undertakings, he will be honoured, and lifted up, and be very high.

bbe@Isaiah:52:14 @As peoples were surprised at him, And his face was not beautiful, so as to be desired: his face was so changed by disease as to be unlike that of a man, and his form was no longer that of the sons of men.

bbe@Isaiah:53:3 @Men made sport of him, turning away from him; he was a man of sorrows, marked by disease; and like one from whom men's faces are turned away, he was looked down on, and we put no value on him.

bbe@Isaiah:53:4 @But it was our pain he took, and our diseases were put on him: while to us he seemed as one diseased, on whom God's punishment had come.

bbe@Isaiah:53:5 @But it was for our sins he was wounded, and for our evil doings he was crushed: he took the punishment by which we have peace, and by his wounds we are made well.

bbe@Isaiah:53:6 @We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.

bbe@Isaiah:53:7 @Men were cruel to him, but he was gentle and quiet; as a lamb taken to its death, and as a sheep before those who take her wool makes no sound, so he said not a word.

bbe@Isaiah:53:10 @And the Lord was pleased... see a seed, long life,... will do well in his hand....

bbe@Isaiah:54:4 @Have no fear; for you will not be shamed or without hope: you will not be put to shame, for the shame of your earlier days will go out of your memory, and you will no longer keep in mind the sorrows of your widowed years.

bbe@Isaiah:54:12 @I will make your towers of rubies, and your doors of carbuncles, and the wall round you will be of all sorts of beautiful stones.

bbe@Isaiah:56:3 @And let not the man from a strange country, who has been joined to the Lord, say, The Lord will certainly put a division between me and his people: and let not the unsexed man say, See, I am a dry tree.

bbe@Isaiah:56:12 @Come, they say, I will get wine, and we will take strong drink in full measure; and tomorrow will be like today, full of pleasure.

bbe@Isaiah:57:7 @You have put your bed on a high mountain: there you went up to make your offering.

bbe@Isaiah:57:9 @And you went to Melech with oil and much perfume, and you sent your representatives far off, and went as low as the underworld.

bbe@Isaiah:57:10 @You were tired with your long journeys; but you did not say, There is no hope: you got new strength, and so you were not feeble.

bbe@Isaiah:57:11 @And of whom were you in fear, so that you were false, and did not keep me in mind, or give thought to it? Have I not been quiet, keeping myself secret, and so you were not in fear of me?

bbe@Isaiah:57:13 @Your false gods will not keep you safe in answer to your cry; but the wind will take them, they will be gone like a breath: but he who puts his hope in me will take the land, and will have my holy mountain as his heritage.

bbe@Isaiah:57:17 @I was quickly angry with his evil ways, and sent punishment on him, veiling my face in wrath: and he went on, turning his heart from me.

bbe@Isaiah:57:18 @I have seen his ways, and I will make him well: I will give him rest, comforting him and his people who are sad.

bbe@Isaiah:57:19 @I will give the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace, to him who is near and to him who is far off, says the Lord; and I will make him well.

bbe@Isaiah:58:3 @They say, Why have we kept ourselves from food, and you do not see it? why have we kept ourselves from pleasure, and you take no note of it? If, in the days when you keep from food, you take the chance to do your business, and get in your debts;

bbe@Isaiah:58:5 @Have I given orders for such a day as this? a day for keeping yourselves from pleasure? is it only a question of the bent head, of putting on haircloth, and being seated in the dust? is this what seems to you a holy day, well-pleasing to the Lord?

bbe@Isaiah:58:8 @Then will light be shining on you like the morning, and your wounds will quickly be well: and your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will come after you.

bbe@Isaiah:58:9 @Then at the sound of your voice, the Lord will give an answer; at your cry he will say, Here am I. If you take away from among you the yoke, the putting out of the finger of shame, and the evil word;

bbe@Isaiah:59:2 @But your sins have come between you and your God, and by your evil doings his face has been veiled from you, so that he will give you no answer.

bbe@Isaiah:59:9 @For this cause our right is far from us, and righteousness does not overtake us: we are looking for light, but there is only the dark; for the shining of the sun, but our way is in the night.

bbe@Isaiah:59:10 @We go on our way, like blind men feeling for the wall, even like those who have no eyes: we are running against things in daylight as if it was evening; our place is in the dark like dead men.

bbe@Isaiah:59:11 @We make noises of grief, like bears, and sad sounds like doves: we are looking for our right, but it is not there; for salvation, but it is far from us.

bbe@Isaiah:59:12 @For our evil doings are increased before you, and our sins give witness against us: for our evil doings are with us, and we have knowledge of our sins:

bbe@Isaiah:59:13 @We have gone against the Lord, and been false to him, turning away from our God, our words have been uncontrolled, and in our hearts are thoughts of deceit.

bbe@Isaiah:59:15 @Yes, faith is gone; and he whose heart is turned from evil comes into the power of the cruel: and the Lord saw it, and he was angry that there was no one to take up their cause.

bbe@Isaiah:59:19 @So they will see the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the east: for he will come like a rushing stream, forced on by a wind of the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:60:5 @Then you will see, and be bright with joy, and your heart will be shaking with increase of delight: for the produce of the sea will be turned to you, the wealth of the nations will come to you.

bbe@Isaiah:60:11 @Your doors will be open at all times; they will not be shut day or night; so that men may come into you with the wealth of the nations, with their kings at their head.

bbe@Isaiah:60:14 @And the sons of those who were cruel to you will come before you with bent heads; and those who made sport of you will go down on their faces at your feet; and you will be named, The Town of the Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

bbe@Isaiah:60:15 @And though you were turned away from, and hated, and had no helper, I will make you a pride for ever, a joy from generation to generation.

bbe@Isaiah:61:1 @The spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make the broken-hearted well, to say that the prisoners will be made free, and that those in chains will see the light again;

bbe@Isaiah:61:6 @But you will be named the priests of the Lord, the servants of our God: you will have the wealth of the nations for your food, and you will be clothed with their glory.

bbe@Isaiah:61:7 @As they had twice as much grief, and marks of shame were their heritage, so in their land they will be rewarded twice over, and will have eternal joy.

bbe@Isaiah:61:10 @I will be full of joy in the Lord, my soul will be glad in my God; for he has put on me the clothing of salvation, covering me with the robe of righteousness, as the husband puts on a fair head-dress, and the bride makes herself beautiful with jewels.

bbe@Isaiah:61:11 @For as the earth puts out buds, and as the garden gives growth to the seeds which are planted in it, so the Lord will make righteousness and praise to be flowering before all the nations.

bbe@Isaiah:63:3 @I have been crushing the grapes by myself, and of the peoples there was no man with me: in my wrath and in my passion, they were crushed under my feet; and my robes are marked with their life-blood, and all my clothing is red.

bbe@Isaiah:63:6 @And in my passion the peoples were crushed under my feet, and broken in my wrath, and I put down their strength to the earth.

bbe@Isaiah:63:10 @But they went against him, causing grief to his holy spirit: so he was turned against them, and made war on them.

bbe@Isaiah:63:12 @He who made the arm of his glory go at the right hand of Moses, by whom the waters were parted before them, to make himself an eternal name;

bbe@Isaiah:63:14 @Like the cattle which go down into the valley, they went without falling, the spirit of the Lord guiding them: so you went before your people, to make yourself a great name.

bbe@Isaiah:63:15 @Let your eyes be looking down from heaven, from your holy and beautiful house: where is your deep feeling, the working of your power? do not keep back the moving of your pity and your mercies:

bbe@Isaiah:63:17 @O Lord, why do you send us wandering from your ways, making our hearts hard, so that we have no fear of you? Come back, because of your servants, the tribes of your heritage.

bbe@Isaiah:63:19 @We have become as those who were never ruled by you, on whom your name was not named.

bbe@Isaiah:64:3 @While you do acts of power for which we are not looking, and which have not come to the ears of men in the past.

bbe@Isaiah:64:5 @Will you not have mercy on him who takes pleasure in doing righteousness, even on those who keep in mind your ways? Truly you were angry, and we went on doing evil, and sinning against you in the past.

bbe@Isaiah:64:6 @For we have all become like an unclean person, and all our good acts are like a dirty robe: and we have all become old like a dead leaf, and our sins, like the wind, take us away.

bbe@Isaiah:64:7 @And there is no one who makes prayer to your name, or who is moved to keep true to you: for your face is veiled from us, and you have given us into the power of our sins.

bbe@Isaiah:64:8 @But now, O Lord, you are our father; we are the earth, and you are our maker; and we are all the work of your hand.

bbe@Isaiah:64:9 @Be not very angry, O Lord, and do not keep our sins in mind for ever: give ear to our prayer, for we are all your people.

bbe@Isaiah:65:1 @I have been ready to give an answer to those who did not make prayer to me; I have been offering myself to those who were not searching for me; I said, Here am I, here am I, to a nation which gave no respect to my name.

bbe@Isaiah:65:7 @For their sins and the sins of their fathers, who were burning perfumes on the mountains, and saying evil things against me on the hills: so I will take the measure of their sins, and will send the punishment for them into their breast.

bbe@Isaiah:65:12 @Your fate will be the sword, and you will all go down to death: because when my voice came to you, you made no answer; you did not give ear to my word; but you did what was evil in my eyes, desiring what was not pleasing to me.

bbe@Isaiah:65:19 @And I will be glad over Jerusalem, and have joy in my people: and the voice of weeping will no longer be sounding in her, or the voice of grief.

bbe@Isaiah:65:24 @And before they make their request I will give an answer, and while they are still making prayer to me, I will give ear.

bbe@Isaiah:66:1 @The Lord says, Heaven is the seat of my power, and earth is the resting-place for my feet: what sort of house will you make for me, and what place will be my resting-place?

bbe@Isaiah:66:4 @So I will go after trouble for them, and will send on them what they are fearing: because no one made answer to my voice, or gave ear to my word; but they did what was evil in my eyes, going after that in which I took no pleasure.

bbe@Isaiah:66:5 @Give ear to the word of the Lord, you who are in fear at his word: your countrymen, hating you, and driving you out because of my name, have said, Let the Lord's glory be made clear, so that we may see your joy; but they will be put to shame.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:1 @The words of Jeremiah, the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:

bbe@Jeremiah:1:5 @Before you were formed in the body of your mother I had knowledge of you, and before your birth I made you holy; I have given you the work of being a prophet to the nations.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:6 @Then said I, O Lord God! see, I have no power of words, for I am a child.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:12 @Then the Lord said to me, You have seen well: for I keep watch over my word to give effect to it.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:2 @Go and say in the ears of Jerusalem, The Lord says, I still keep the memory of your kind heart when you were young, and your love when you became my bride; how you went after me in the waste of sand, in an unplanted land.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:3 @Israel was holy to the Lord, the first-fruits of his increase: all who made attacks on him were judged as wrongdoers, evil came on them, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:6 @And they never said, Where is the Lord, who took us up out of the land of Egypt; who was our guide through the waste of sand, through an unplanted land full of deep holes, through a dry land of deep shade, which no one went through and where no man was living?

bbe@Jeremiah:2:7 @And I took you into a fertile land, where you were living on its fruit and its wealth; but when you came in, you made my land unclean, and made my heritage a disgusting thing.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:8 @The priests did not say, Where is the Lord? and those who were expert in the law had no knowledge of me: and the rulers did evil against me, and the prophets became prophets of the Baal, going after things without value.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:21 @But when you were planted by me, you were a noble vine, in every way a true seed: how then have you been changed into the branching plant of a strange vine?

bbe@Jeremiah:2:31 @O generation, see the word of the Lord. Have I been a waste land to Israel? or a land of dark night? why do my people say, We have got loose, we will not come to you again?

bbe@Jeremiah:2:36 @Why do you go about so much for the purpose of changing your way? you will be shamed on account of Egypt, as you were shamed on account of Assyria.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:3 @So the showers have been kept back, and there has been no spring rain; still your brow is the brow of a loose woman, you will not let yourself be shamed.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:8 @And though she saw that, because Israel, turning away from me, had been untrue to me, I had put her away and given her a statement in writing ending the relation between us, still Judah, her false sister, had no fear, but went and did the same.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:21 @A voice is sounding on the open hilltops, the weeping and the prayers of the children of Israel; because their way is twisted, they have not kept the Lord their God in mind.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:22 @Come back, you children who have been turned away, and I will take away your desire for wandering. See, we have come to you, for you are the Lord our God.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:25 @Let us be stretched on the earth in our downfall, covering ourselves with our shame: for we have been sinners against the Lord our God, we and our fathers, from our earliest years even till this day: and we have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:8 @For this put on haircloth, with weeping and loud crying: for the burning wrath of the Lord is not turned back from us.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:10 @Then said I, Ah, Lord God! your words were not true when you said to this people and to Jerusalem, You will have peace; when the sword has come even to the soul

bbe@Jeremiah:4:24 @Looking at the mountains, I saw them shaking, and all the hills were moved about.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:26 @Looking, I saw that the fertile field was a waste, and all its towns were broken down before the Lord and before his burning wrath.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:28 @The earth will be weeping for this, and the heavens on high will be black: because I have said it, and I will not go back from it; it is my purpose, and it will not be changed.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:3 @O Lord, do not your eyes see good faith? you have given them punishment, but they were not troubled; you have sent destruction on them, but they did not take your teaching to heart: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they would not come back.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:7 @How is it possible for you to have my forgiveness for this? your children have given me up, taking their oaths by those who are no gods: when I had given them food in full measure, they were false to their wives, taking their pleasure in the houses of loose women.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:8 @They were full of desire, like horses after a meal of grain: everyone went after his neighbour's wife.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:12 @They would have nothing to do with the Lord, saying, He will do nothing, and no evil will come to us; we will not see the sword or be short of food:

bbe@Jeremiah:5:21 @Give ear now to this, O foolish people without sense; who have eyes but see nothing, and ears without the power of hearing:

bbe@Jeremiah:5:24 @And they do not say in their hearts, Now let us give worship to our God, who gives the rain, the winter and the spring rain, at the right time; who keeps for us the ordered weeks of the grain-cutting.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:27 @As the fowl-house is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: for this reason they have become great and have got wealth.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:28 @They have become fat and strong: they have gone far in works of evil: they give no support to the cause of the child without a father, so that they may do well; they do not see that the poor man gets his rights.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:15 @Let them be put to shame because they have done disgusting things. They had no shame, they were not able to become red with shame: so they will come down with those who are falling: when my punishment comes on them, they will be made low, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:16 @This is what the Lord has said: Take your place looking out on the ways; make search for the old roads, saying, Where is the good way? and go in it that you may have rest for your souls. But they said, We will not go in it.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:17 @And I put watchmen over you, saying, Give attention to the sound of the horn; but they said, We will not give attention.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:20 @To what purpose does sweet perfume come to me from Sheba, and spices from a far country? your burned offerings give me no pleasure, your offerings of beasts are not pleasing to me.

bbe@Jeremiah:6:29 @The blower is blowing strongly, the lead is burned away in the fire: they go on heating the metal to no purpose, for the evil-doers are not taken away.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:5 @For if your ways and your doings are truly changed for the better; if you truly give right decisions between a man and his neighbour;

bbe@Jeremiah:7:10 @And come and take your place before me in this house, which is named by my name, and say, We have been made safe; so that you may do all these disgusting things?

bbe@Jeremiah:7:13 @And now, because you have done all these works, says the Lord, and I sent my word to you, getting up early and sending, but you did not give ear; and my voice came to you, but you gave no answer:

bbe@Jeremiah:7:23 @But this was the order I gave them, saying, Give ear to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people: go in all the way ordered by me, so that all may be well for you.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:24 @But they took no note and did not give ear, but were guided by the thoughts and the pride of their evil hearts, going back and not forward.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:27 @And you are to say all these words to them, but they will not give ear to you: you will send out your voice to them, but they will give no answer.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:8 @How is it that you say, We are wise and the law of the Lord is with us? But see, the false pen of the scribes has made it false.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:12 @Let them be put to shame because they have done disgusting things. They had no shame, they were not able to become red with shame: so they will come down with those who are falling: in the time of their punishment they will be made low, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:14 @Why are we seated doing nothing? come together, and let us go to the walled towns, and let destruction overtake us there, for the Lord our God has sent destruction on us, and given us bitter water for our drink, because we have done evil against the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:15 @We were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there is only a great fear.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:17 @See, I will send snakes and poison-snakes among you, against which the wonder-worker has no power; and they will give you wounds which may not be made well, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:22 @Is there no life-giving oil in Gilead? is there no expert in medical arts? why then have my people not been made well?

bbe@Jeremiah:9:1 @If only my head was a stream of waters and my eyes fountains of weeping, so that I might go on weeping day and night for the dead of the daughter of my people!

bbe@Jeremiah:9:10 @Give yourselves to weeping, crying out in sorrow for the mountains; and for the fields of the waste land send up a song of grief, because they are burned up, so that no one goes through; there is no sound of cattle; the bird of the heavens and the beast are in flight and are gone.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:17 @This is what the Lord of armies has said: Take thought and send for the weeping women, so that they may come; and send for the wise women, so that they may come:

bbe@Jeremiah:9:19 @For a sound of weeping goes up from Zion, a cry, How has destruction come on us? we are overcome with shame because we have gone away from our land; he has sent us out from our house.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:23 @This is the word of the Lord: Let not the wise man take pride in his wisdom, or the strong man in his strength, or the man of wealth in his wealth:

bbe@Jeremiah:10:5 @It is like a pillar in a garden of plants, and has no voice: it has to be lifted, for it has no power of walking. Have no fear of it; for it has no power of doing evil and it is not able to do any good.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:6 @There is no one like you, O Lord; you are great and your name is great in power.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:12 @He has made the earth by his power, he has made the world strong in its place by his wisdom, and by his wise design the heavens have been stretched out.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:19 @Sorrow is mine for I am wounded! my wound may not be made well; and I said, Cruel is my disease, I may not be free from it.

bbe@Jeremiah:10:23 @O Lord, I am conscious that a man's way is not in himself: man has no power of guiding his steps.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:5 @So that I may give effect to the oath which I made to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey as at this day. And I said in answer, So be it, O Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:8 @But they gave no attention and did not give ear, but they went on, every man in the pride of his evil heart: so I sent on them all the curses in this agreement, which I gave them orders to keep, but they did not.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:17 @For the Lord of armies, by whom you were planted, has given his decision for evil against you, because of the evil which the people of Israel and the people of Judah have done, In moving me to wrath by offering perfumes to the Baal.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:19 @But I was like a gentle lamb taken to be put to death; I had no thought that they were designing evil against me, saying, Come and let us make trouble his food, cutting him off from the land of the living, so that there may be no more memory of his name.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:1 @You are in the right, O Lord, when I put my cause before you: still let me take up with you the question of your decisions: why does the evil-doer do well? why are the workers of deceit living in comfort?

bbe@Jeremiah:12:11 @They have made it waste; it is weeping to me, being wasted; all the land is made waste, because no man takes it to heart.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:5 @So I went and put it in a secret place by Parah, as the Lord had said to me.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:7 @So I went to Parah and, uncovering the hole, took the band from the place where I had put it away: and the band was damaged and of no use for anything.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:17 @But if you do not give ear to it, my soul will be weeping in secret for your pride; my eye will be weeping bitterly, streaming with water, because the Lord's flock has been taken away as prisoners.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:2 @Judah is weeping and its doors are dark with sorrow, and people are seated on the earth clothed in black; and the cry of Jerusalem has gone up.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:7 @Though our sins give witness against us, do something, O Lord, for the honour of your name: for again and again we have been turned away from you, we have done evil against you.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:9 @Why are you like a man surprised, like a man of war who is not able to give help? but you, O Lord, are with us, and we are named by your name; do not go away from us.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:19 @Have you completely given up Judah? is your soul turned in disgust from Zion? why have you given us blows from which there is no one to make us well? we were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there was only a great fear.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:20 @We are conscious, O Lord, of our sin and of the wrongdoing of our fathers: we have done evil against you.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:22 @Are any of the false gods of the nations able to make rain come? are the heavens able to give showers? are you not he, O Lord our God? so we will go on waiting for you, for you have done all these things.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:2 @And it will be, when they say to you, Where are we to go? then you are to say to them, The Lord has said, Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are to be in need of food, to need of food; and such as are to be taken away prisoners, to be taken away.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:13 @I will give your wealth and your stores to your attackers, without a price, because of all your sins, even in every part of your land.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:18 @Why is my pain unending and my wound without hope of being made well? Sorrow is mine, for you are to me as a stream offering false hope and as waters which are not certain.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:4 @Death from evil diseases will overtake them; there will be no weeping for them and their bodies will not be put to rest; they will be like waste on the face of the earth: the sword and need of food will put an end to them; their dead bodies will be meat for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:5 @For this is what the Lord has said: Do not go into the house of sorrow, do not go to make weeping or songs of grief for them: for I have taken away my peace from this people, says the Lord, even mercy and pity.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:6 @Death will overtake great as well as small in the land: their bodies will not be put in a resting-place, and no one will be weeping for them or wounding themselves or cutting off their hair for them:

bbe@Jeremiah:16:10 @And it will be, that when you say all these words to the people, then they will say to you, Why has the Lord done all this evil against us? what is our wrongdoing and what is our sin which we have done against the Lord our God?

bbe@Jeremiah:16:19 @O Lord, my strength and my strong tower, my safe place in the day of trouble, the nations will come to you from the ends of the earth, and say, The heritage of our fathers is nothing but deceit, even false things in which there is no profit.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:21 @For this reason, truly, I will make them see, this once I will give them knowledge of my hand and my power; and they will be certain that my name is the Lord

bbe@Jeremiah:17:1 @The sin of Judah is recorded with a pen of iron, and with the sharp point of a jewel it is cut on their hearts of stone, and on the horns of their altars for a sign to them:

bbe@Jeremiah:17:3 @I will give your wealth and all your stores to be taken away in war without a price, because of your sins in every part of your land.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:11 @Like the partridge, getting eggs together but not producing young, is a man who gets wealth but not by right; before half his days are ended, it will go from him, and at his end he will be foolish.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:14 @Make me well, O Lord, and I will be well; be my saviour, and I will be safe: for you are my hope.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:21 @This is what the Lord has said: See to yourselves, that you take up no weight on the Sabbath day, or take it in through the doors of Jerusalem;

bbe@Jeremiah:17:22 @And take no weight out of your houses on the Sabbath day, or do any work, but keep the Sabbath day holy, as I gave orders to your fathers;

bbe@Jeremiah:17:24 @And it will be, that if with all care you give ear to me, says the Lord, and take no weight through the doorways of this town on the Sabbath day, but keep the Sabbath day holy and do no work in it;

bbe@Jeremiah:17:27 @But if you do not give ear to me, to keep the Sabbath day holy, and to let no weight be lifted and taken through the doors of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day: then I will put a fire in its doorways, burning up the great houses of Jerusalem, and it will never be put out.

bbe@Jeremiah:18:3 @Then I went down to the potter's house, and he was doing his work on the stones.

bbe@Jeremiah:18:12 @But they will say, There is no hope: we will go on in our designs, and every one of us will do what he is moved by the pride of his evil heart to do.

bbe@Jeremiah:18:21 @For this cause, let their children be without food, and give them over to the power of the sword; and let their wives be without children and become widows; let their men be overtaken by death, and their young men be put to the sword in the fight.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:5 @And more than this, I will give all the wealth of this town and all its profits and all its things of value, even all the stores of the kings of Judah will I give into the hands of their haters, who will put violent hands on them and take them away to Babylon.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:10 @For numbers of them say evil secretly in my hearing (there is fear on every side): they say, Come, let us give witness against him; all my nearest friends, who are watching for my fall, say, It may be that he will be taken by deceit, and we will get the better of him and give him punishment.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:10 @Let there be no weeping for the dead, and make no songs of grief for him: but make bitter weeping for him who has gone away, for he will never come back or see again the country of his birth.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:11 @For this is what the Lord has said about Shallum, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who became king in place of Josiah his father, who went out from this place: He will never come back there again:

bbe@Jeremiah:22:15 @Are you to be a king because you make more use of cedar than your father? did not your father take food and drink and do right, judging in righteousness, and then it was well for him?

bbe@Jeremiah:22:16 @He was judge in the cause of the poor and those in need; then it was well

bbe@Jeremiah:22:18 @So this is what the Lord has said about Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah: They will make no weeping for him, saying, Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! they will make no weeping for him, saying, Ah lord! or, Ah his glory!

bbe@Jeremiah:22:21 @My word came to you in the time of your well-being; but you said, I will not give ear. This has been your way from your earliest years, you did not give attention to my voice.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:30 @The Lord has said, Let this man be recorded as having no children, a man who will not do well in all his life: for no man of his seed will do well, seated on the seat of the kingdom of David and ruling again in Judah.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:11 @For the prophet as well as the priest is unclean; even in my house I have seen their evil-doing, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:21 @I did not send these prophets, but they went running: I said nothing to them, but they gave out the prophet's word.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:33 @And if this people, or the prophet, or a priest, questioning you, says, What word of weight is there from the Lord? then you are to say to them, You are the word, for I will not be troubled with you any more, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:34 @And as for the prophet and the priest and the people who say, A word of weight from the Lord! I will send punishment on that man and on his house.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:35 @But this is what you are to say, every man to his neighbour and every man to his brother, What answer has the Lord given? and, What has the Lord said?

bbe@Jeremiah:23:36 @And you will no longer put people in mind of the word of weight of the Lord: for every man's word will be a weight on himself; for the words of the living God, of the Lord of armies, our God, have been twisted by you.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:37 @This is what you are to say to the prophet, What answer has the Lord given to you? and, What has the Lord said?

bbe@Jeremiah:23:38 @But if you say, The word of weight of the Lord; this is what the Lord has said: Because you say, The weight of the Lord, and I have sent to you, saying, You are not to say, The weight of the Lord;

bbe@Jeremiah:25:3 @From the thirteenth year of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah, even till this day, for twenty-three years, the word of the Lord has been coming to me, and I have given it to you, getting up early and talking to you; but you have not given ear.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:33 @And at that day, the bodies of those whom the Lord has put to death will be seen from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth: there will be no weeping for them, their bodies will not be taken up or put to rest in the earth; they will be like waste on the face of the land.

bbe@Jeremiah:26:19 @Did Hezekiah and all Judah put him to death? did he not in the fear of the Lord make prayer for the grace of the Lord, and the Lord let himself be turned from the decision he had made against them for evil? By this act we might do great evil against ourselves.

bbe@Jeremiah:26:21 @And when his words came to the ears of Jehoiakim the king and all his men of war and his captains, the king would have put him to death; but Uriah, hearing of it, was full of fear and went in flight into Egypt:

bbe@Jeremiah:28:4 @And I will let Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, come back to this place, with all the prisoners of Judah who went to Babylon, says the Lord: for I will have the yoke of the king of Babylon broken.

bbe@Jeremiah:28:8 @The prophets, who were before me and before you, from early times gave word to a number of countries and great kingdoms about war and destruction and disease.

bbe@Jeremiah:28:11 @And before all the people Hananiah said, The Lord has said, Even so will I let the yoke of the king of Babylon be broken off the necks of all the nations in the space of two years. Then the prophet Jeremiah went away.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:22 @And their fate will be used as a curse by all the prisoners of Judah who are in Babylon, who will say, May the Lord make you like Zedekiah and like Ahab, who were burned in the fire by the king of Babylon;

bbe@Jeremiah:30:12 @For the Lord has said, Your disease may not be made well and your wound is bitter.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:13 @There is no help for your wound, there is nothing to make you well.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:15 @Why are you crying for help because of your wound? for your pain may never be taken away: because your evil-doing was so great and because your sins were increased, I have done these things to you.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:17 @For I will make you healthy again and I will make you well from your wounds, says the Lord; because they have given you the name of an outlaw, saying, It is Zion cared for by no man.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:20 @And their children will be as they were in the old days, and the meeting of the people will have its place before me, and I will send punishment on all who are cruel to them.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:9 @They will come with weeping, and going before them I will be their guide: guiding them by streams of water in a straight way where there is no falling: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is the first of my sons.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:16 @The Lord has said this: Keep your voice from sorrow and your eyes from weeping: for your work will be rewarded, says the Lord; and they will come back from the land of their hater.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:11 @But when Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came up into the land, we said, Come, let us go to Jerusalem, away from the army of the Chaldaeans and from the army of the Aramaeans: and so we are living in Jerusalem.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:17 @For this reason the Lord, the God of armies, the God of Israel, has said, See, I will send on Judah and on all the people of Jerusalem all the evil which I said I would do to them: because I sent my words to them, but they did not give ear; crying out to them, but they gave no answer.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:9 @Now it came about in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, that it was given out publicly that all the people in Jerusalem, and all the people who came from the towns of Judah to Jerusalem, were to keep from food before the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:12 @Went down to the king's house, to the scribe's room: and all the rulers were seated there, Elishama the scribe and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the rulers.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:16 @Now it came about that, after hearing all the words, they said to one another in fear, We will certainly give the king an account of all these words.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:6 @So they took Jeremiah and put him into the water-hole of Malchiah, the king's son, in the place of the armed watchmen: and they let Jeremiah down with cords. And in the hole there was no water, but wet earth: and Jeremiah went down into the wet earth.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:20 @But Jeremiah said, They will not give you up: be guided now by the word of the Lord as I have given it to you, and it will be well for you, and you will keep your life.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:25 @But if it comes to the ears of the rulers that I have been talking with you, and they come and say to you, Give us word now of what you have said to the king and what the king said to you, keeping nothing back and we will not put you to death;

bbe@Jeremiah:41:6 @And Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, went out from Mizpah with the purpose of meeting them, weeping on his way: and it came about that when he was face to face with them he said, Come to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:7 @And when they came inside the town, Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and the men who were with him, put them to death and put their bodies into a deep hole.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:8 @But there were ten men among them who said to Ishmael, Do not put us to death, for we have secret stores, in the country, of grain and oil and honey. So he did not put them to death with their countrymen.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:10 @Then Ishmael took away as prisoners all the rest of the people who were in Mizpah, the king's daughters and all the people still in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, had put under the care of Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam: Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, took them away prisoners with the purpose of going over to the children of Ammon.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:11 @But when Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the armed forces who were with him, had news of all the evil which Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had done,

bbe@Jeremiah:41:12 @They took their men and went out to make war on Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and they came face to face with him by the great waters in Gibeon.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:13 @Now when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces with him, then they were glad.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:14 @And all the people whom Ishmael had taken away prisoners from Mizpah, turning round, came back and went to Johanan, the son of Kareah.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:15 @But Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, got away from Johanan, with eight men, and went to the children of Ammon.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:16 @Then Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, took all the rest of the people whom Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had made prisoners, after he had put to death Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the people from Mizpah, that is, the men of war and the women and the children and the unsexed servants, whom he had taken back with him from Gibeon:

bbe@Jeremiah:41:17 @And they went and were living in the resting-place of Chimham, which is near Beth-lehem on the way into Egypt,

bbe@Jeremiah:41:18 @Because of the Chaldaeans: for they were in fear of them because Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had put to death Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had made ruler over the land.

bbe@Jeremiah:42:2 @And said to Jeremiah the prophet, Let our request come before you, and make prayer for us to the Lord your God, even for this small band of us; for we are only a small band out of what was a great number, as your eyes may see:

bbe@Jeremiah:42:3 @That the Lord your God may make clear to us the way in which we are to go and what we are to do.

bbe@Jeremiah:42:4 @Then Jeremiah the prophet said to them, I have given ear to you; see, I will make prayer to the Lord your God, as you have said; and it will be that, whatever the Lord may say in answer to you, I will give you word of it, keeping nothing back.

bbe@Jeremiah:42:5 @Then they said to Jeremiah, May the Lord be a true witness against us in good faith, if we do not do everything which the Lord your God sends you to say to us.

bbe@Jeremiah:42:6 @If it is good or if it is evil, we will be guided by the voice of the Lord our God, to whom we are sending you; so that it may be well for us when we give ear to the voice of the Lord our God.

bbe@Jeremiah:42:8 @And he sent for Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were still with him, and all the people, from the least to the greatest,

bbe@Jeremiah:42:13 @But if you say, We have no desire to go on living in this land; and do not give ear to the voice of the Lord your God,

bbe@Jeremiah:42:14 @Saying, No, but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we will not see war, or be hearing the sound of the horn, or be in need of food; there we will make our living-place;

bbe@Jeremiah:42:20 @For you have been acting with deceit in your hearts; for you sent me to the Lord your God, saying, Make prayer for us to the Lord our God, and give us word of everything he may say, and we will do it.

bbe@Jeremiah:43:4 @So Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, did not give ear to the order of the Lord that they were to go on living in the land of Judah.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah about all the Jews who were living in the land of Egypt, in Migdol and at Tahpanhes and at Noph and in the country of Pathros, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:44:3 @Because of the evil which they have done, moving me to wrath by burning perfumes in worship to other gods, who were not their gods or yours or the gods of their fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:5 @But they gave no attention, and their ears were not open so that they might be turned from their evil-doing and from burning perfume to other gods.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:6 @Because of this, my passion and my wrath were let loose, burning in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are waste and unpeopled as at this day.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:15 @Then all the men who had knowledge that their wives were burning perfumes to other gods, and all the women who were present, a great meeting, answering Jeremiah, said,

bbe@Jeremiah:44:16 @As for the word which you have said to us in the name of the Lord, we will not give ear to you.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:17 @But we will certainly do every word which has gone out of our mouths, burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her as we did, we and our fathers and our kings and our rulers, in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then we had food enough and did well and saw no evil.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:18 @But from the time when we gave up burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her, we have been in need of all things, and have been wasted by the sword and by need of food.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:19 @And the women said, When we were burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her, did we make cakes in her image and give her our drink offerings without the knowledge of our husbands?

bbe@Jeremiah:44:20 @Then Jeremiah said to all the people, to the men and women and all the people who had given him that answer,

bbe@Jeremiah:44:25 @This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: You women have said with your mouths, and with your hands you have done what you said, We will certainly give effect to the oaths we have made, to have perfumes burned to the queen of heaven and drink offerings drained out to her: then give effect to your oaths and do them.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:11 @Go up to Gilead and take sweet oil, O virgin daughter of Egypt: there is no help in all your medical arts; nothing will make you well.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:21 @And those who were her fighters for payment are like fat oxen; for they are turned back, they have gone in flight together, they do not keep their place: for the day of their fate has come on them, the time of their punishment.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:5 @For by the slope of Luhith they will go up, weeping all the way; for on the way down to Horonaim the cry of destruction has come to their ears.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:13 @And Moab will be shamed on account of Chemosh, as the children of Israel were shamed on account of Beth-el their hope.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:14 @How say you, We are men of war and strong fighters?

bbe@Jeremiah:48:27 @For did you not make sport of Israel? was he taken among thieves? for whenever you were talking about him, you were shaking your head over him.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:29 @We have had word of the pride of Moab, how great it is; how he is lifted up in pride; and his great opinion of himself, and that his heart is lifted up.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:32 @My weeping for you, O vine of Sibmah, will be more than the weeping of Jazer: your branches have gone over the sea, stretching even to Jazer: destruction has come down on your summer fruits and your cut grapes.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:36 @So my heart is sounding for Moab like the sound of pipes, and my heart is sounding like pipes for the men of Kir-heres: for the wealth he has got for himself has come to an end.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:38 @On all the house-tops of Moab and in its streets there is weeping everywhere; for Moab has been broken like a vessel in which there is no pleasure, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:48:45 @Those who went in flight from the fear are waiting under the shade of Heshbon: for a fire has gone out from Heshbon and a flame from the house of Sihon, burning up the pride of Moab and the crown of the head of the violent ones.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:3 @Make sounds of grief, O Heshbon, for Ai is wasted; give loud cries, O daughters of Rabbah, and put haircloth round you: give yourselves to weeping, running here and there and wounding yourselves; for Milcom will be taken prisoner together with his rulers and his priests.

bbe@Jeremiah:49:4 @Why are you lifted up in pride on account of your valleys, your flowing valley, O daughter ever turning away? who puts her faith in her wealth, saying, Who will come against me?

bbe@Jeremiah:49:38 @I will put the seat of my power in Elam, and in Elam I will put an end to kings and rulers, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:4 @In those days and in that time, says the Lord, the children of Israel will come, they and the children of Judah together; they will go on their way weeping and making prayer to the Lord their God.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:7 @They have been attacked by all those who came across them: and their attackers said, We are doing no wrong, because they have done evil against the Lord in whom is righteousness, against the Lord, the hope of their fathers.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:10 @And the wealth of Chaldaea will come into the hands of her attackers: all those who take her wealth will have enough, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:24 @I have put a net for you, and you have been taken, O Babylon, without your knowledge: you have been uncovered and taken because you were fighting against the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:50:40 @As when Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbouring towns were overturned by God, says the Lord, so no man will be living in it, and no son of man will have a resting-place there.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:8 @Sudden is the downfall of Babylon and her destruction: make cries of grief for her; take sweet oil for her pain, if it is possible for her to be made well.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:9 @We would have made Babylon well, but she is not made well: give her up, and let us go everyone to his country: for her punishment is stretching up to heaven, and lifted up even to the skies.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:15 @He has made the earth by his power, he has made the world strong in its place by his wisdom, and by his wise design the heavens have been stretched out:

bbe@Jeremiah:51:44 @And I will send punishment on Bel in Babylon, and take out of his mouth what went into it; no longer will the nations be flowing together to him: truly, the wall of Babylon will come down.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:51 @We are shamed because bitter words have come to our ears; our faces are covered with shame: for men from strange lands have come into the holy places of the Lord's house.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:58 @The Lord of armies has said: The wide walls of Babylon will be completely uncovered and her high doorways will be burned with fire; so peoples keep on working for nothing, and the weariness of nations comes to an end in the smoke.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:59 @The order which Jeremiah the prophet gave to Seraiah, the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, when he went with Zedekiah, the king of Judah, to Babylon in the fourth year of his rule. Now Seraiah was the chief controller of the house.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:64 @And you are to say, So Babylon will go down, never to be lifted up again, because of the evil which I will send on her: and weariness will overcome them. So far, these are the words of Jeremiah.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:1 @Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king; he was king for eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:7 @Then an opening was made in the wall of the town, and all the men of war went in flight out of the town by night through the doorway between the two walls which was by the king's garden; (now the Chaldaeans were stationed round the town:) and they went by the way of the Arabah.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:8 @And the Chaldaean army went after King Zedekiah and overtook him on the other side of Jericho, and all his army went in flight from him in every direction.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:14 @And the walls round Jerusalem were broken down by the Chaldaean army which was with the captain.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:15 @Then Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took away as prisoners the rest of the people who were still in the town, and those who had given themselves up to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the workmen.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:17 @And the brass pillars which were in the house of the Lord, and the wheeled bases and the great brass water-vessel in the house of the Lord, were broken up by the Chaldaeans, who took all the brass away to Babylon.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:20 @The two pillars, the great water-vessel, and the twelve brass oxen which were under it, and the ten wheeled bases, which King Solomon had made for the house of the Lord: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:21 @And as for the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and twelve cubits measured all round, and it was as thick as a man's hand: it was hollow.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:23 @There were ninety-six apples on the outside; the number of apples all round the network was a hundred.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:25 @And from the town he took the unsexed servant who was over the men of war, and seven of the king's near friends who were in the town, and the scribe of the captain of the army, who was responsible for getting the people of the land together in military order, and sixty men of the people of the land who were in the town.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:28 @These are the people whom Nebuchadrezzar took away prisoner: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews:

bbe@Jeremiah:52:30 @In the twenty-third year of Nebuchadrezzar, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took away as prisoners seven hundred and forty-five of the Jews: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:31 @And in the thirty-seventh year after Jehoiachin, king of Judah, had been taken prisoner, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth day of the month, Evil-merodach, king of Babylon, in the first year after he became king, took Jehoiachin, king of Judah, out of prison.

bbe@Jeremiah:52:32 @And he said kind words to him and put his seat higher than the seats of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.

bbe@Lamentations:1:2 @She is sorrowing bitterly in the night, and her face is wet with weeping; among all her lovers she has no comforter: all her friends have been false to her, they have become her haters.

bbe@Lamentations:1:5 @Those who are against her have become the head, everything goes well for her haters; for the Lord has sent sorrow on her because of the great number of her sins: her young children have gone away as prisoners before the attacker.

bbe@Lamentations:1:7 @Jerusalem keeps in mind, in the days of her sorrow and of her wanderings, all the desired things which were hers in days gone by; when her people came into the power of her hater and she had no helper, her attackers saw their desire effected on her and made sport of her destruction.

bbe@Lamentations:1:9 @In her skirts were her unclean ways; she gave no thought to her end; and her fall has been a wonder; she has no comforter: see her sorrow, O Lord; for the attacker is lifted up.

bbe@Lamentations:1:10 @The hand of her hater is stretched out over all her desired things; for she has seen that the nations have come into her holy place, about whom you gave orders that they were not to come into the meeting of your people.

bbe@Lamentations:1:14 @A watch is kept on my sins; they are joined together by his hand, they have come on to my neck; he has made my strength give way: the Lord has given me up into the hands of those against whom I have no power.

bbe@Lamentations:1:16 @For these things I am weeping; my eye is streaming with water; because the comforter who might give me new life is far from me: my children are made waste, because the hater is strong.

bbe@Lamentations:1:19 @I sent for my lovers, but they were false to me: my priests and my responsible men were breathing their last breath in the town, while they were looking for food to give them new life.

bbe@Lamentations:2:4 @His bow has been bent for the attack, he has taken his place with his hand ready, in his hate he has put to death all who were pleasing to the eye: on the tent of the daughter of Zion he has let loose his passion like fire.

bbe@Lamentations:2:8 @It is the Lord's purpose to make waste the wall of the daughter of Zion; his line has been stretched out, he has not kept back his hand from destruction: he has sent sorrow on tower and wall, they have become feeble together.

bbe@Lamentations:2:11 @My eyes are wasted with weeping, the inmost parts of my body are deeply moved, my inner parts are drained out on the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because of the young children and babies at the breast who are falling without strength in the open squares of the town.

bbe@Lamentations:2:13 @What example am I to give you? what comparison am I to make for you, O daughter of Jerusalem? what am I to make equal to you, so that I may give you comfort, O virgin daughter of Zion? for your destruction is great like the sea: who is able to make you well?

bbe@Lamentations:2:16 @All your haters are opening their mouths wide against you; making hisses and whistling through their teeth, they say, We have made a meal of her: certainly this is the day we have been looking for; it has come, we have seen it.

bbe@Lamentations:2:17 @The Lord has done that which was his purpose; he has put into force the orders which he gave in the days which are past; pulling down without pity, he has made your hater glad over you, lifting up the horn of those who were against you.

bbe@Lamentations:2:18 @Let your cry go up to the Lord: O wall of the daughter of Zion, let your weeping be flowing down like a stream day and night; give yourself no rest, let not your eyes keep back the drops of sorrow.

bbe@Lamentations:2:22 @As in the day of a holy meeting you have made fears come round me on every side, and no one got away or was kept safe in the day of the Lord's wrath: those who were folded in my arms, whom I took care of, have been sent to their destruction by my hater.

bbe@Lamentations:3:7 @He has put a wall round me, so that I am not able to go out; he has made great the weight of my chain.

bbe@Lamentations:3:22 @It is through the Lord's love that we have not come to destruction, because his mercies have no limit.

bbe@Lamentations:3:42 @We have done wrong and gone against your law; we have not had your forgiveness.

bbe@Lamentations:3:54 @Waters were flowing over my head; I said, I am cut off.

bbe@Lamentations:3:55 @I was making prayer to your name, O Lord, out of the lowest prison.

bbe@Lamentations:3:64 @You will give them their reward, O Lord, answering to the work of their hands.

bbe@Lamentations:4:5 @Those who were used to feasting on delicate food are wasted in the streets: those who as children were dressed in purple are stretched out on the dust.

bbe@Lamentations:4:7 @Her holy ones were cleaner than snow, they were whiter than milk, their bodies were redder than corals, their form was as the sapphire:

bbe@Lamentations:4:10 @The hands of kind-hearted women have been boiling their children; they were their food in the destruction of the daughter of my people

bbe@Lamentations:4:15 @Away! unclean! they were crying out to them, Away! away! let there be no touching: when they went away in flight and wandering, men said among the nations, There is no further resting-place for them.

bbe@Lamentations:4:17 @Our eyes are still wasting away in looking for our false help: we have been watching for a nation unable to give salvation.

bbe@Lamentations:4:18 @They go after our steps so that we may not go in our streets: our end is near, our days are numbered; for our end has come.

bbe@Lamentations:4:19 @Those who went after us were quicker than the eagles of the heaven, driving us before them on the mountains, waiting secretly for us in the waste land.

bbe@Lamentations:4:20 @Our breath of life, he on whom the holy oil was put, was taken in their holes; of whom we said, Under his shade we will be living among the nations.

bbe@Lamentations:5:3 @We are children without fathers, our mothers are like widows.

bbe@Lamentations:5:4 @We give money for a drink of water, we get our wood for a price.

bbe@Lamentations:5:5 @Our attackers are on our necks: overcome with weariness, we have no rest.

bbe@Lamentations:5:6 @We have given our hands to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians so that we might have enough bread.

bbe@Lamentations:5:7 @Our fathers were sinners and are dead; and the weight of their evil-doing is on us.

bbe@Lamentations:5:9 @We put our lives in danger to get our bread, because of the sword of the waste land.

bbe@Lamentations:5:12 @Their hands put princes to death by hanging: the faces of old men were not honoured

bbe@Lamentations:5:13 @The young men were crushing the grain, and the boys were falling under the wood.

bbe@Lamentations:5:16 @The crown has been taken from our head: sorrow is ours, for we are sinners.

bbe@Lamentations:5:19 @You, O Lord, are seated as King for ever; the seat of your power is eternal.

bbe@Lamentations:5:20 @Why have we gone from your memory for ever? why have you been turned away from us for so long?

bbe@Ezekiel:1:1 @Now it came about in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, while I was by the river Chebar among those who had been made prisoners, that the heavens were made open and I saw visions of God.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:5 @And in the heart of it were the forms of four living beings. And this was what they were like; they had the form of a man.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:7 @And their feet were straight feet; and the under sides of their feet were like the feet of oxen; and they were shining like polished brass.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:9 @They went without turning, every one went straight forward.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:11 @And their wings were separate at the top; two of the wings of every one were joined one to another, and two were covering their bodies.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:12 @Every one of them went straight forward; wherever the spirit was to go they went; they went on without turning.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:13 @And between the living beings it was like burning coals of fire, as if flames were going one after the other between the living beings; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went thunder-flames.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:14 @And the living beings went out and came back as quickly as a thunder-flame.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:16 @The form of the wheels and their work was like a beryl; the four of them had the same form and design, and they were like a wheel inside a wheel.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:17 @The four of them went straight forward without turning to one side.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:18 @And I saw that they had edges, and their edges, even of the four, were full of eyes round about.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:19 @And when the living beings went on, the wheels went by their side; and when the living beings were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:20 @Wherever the spirit was to go they went; and the wheels were lifted up by their side: for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:21 @When these went on, the others went; and when these came to rest, the others came to rest; and when these were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up by their side: for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:23 @Under the arch their wings were straight, one stretched out to another: every one had two wings covering their bodies on this side and two covering their bodies on that side.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:24 @And when they went, the sound of their wings was like the sound of great waters to my ears, like the voice of the Ruler of all, a sound like the rushing of an army: when they came to rest they let down their wings.

bbe@Ezekiel:1:28 @Like the bow in the cloud on a day of rain, so was the light shining round him. And this is what the glory of the Lord was like. And when I saw it I went down on my face, and the voice of one talking came to my ears.

bbe@Ezekiel:2:10 @And he put it open before me, and it had writing on the front and on the back; words of grief and sorrow and trouble were recorded in it.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:3 @And he said to me, Son of man, let your stomach make a meal of it and let your inside be full of this roll which I am giving you. Then I took it, and it was sweet as honey in my mouth.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:14 @And the wind, lifting me up, took me away: and I went in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of the Lord was strong on me.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:15 @Then I came to those who had been taken away as prisoners, who were at Telabib by the river Chebar, and I was seated among them full of wonder for seven days.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:23 @Then I got up and went out into the valley; and I saw the glory of the Lord resting there as I had seen it by the river Chebar; and I went down on my face.

bbe@Ezekiel:4:3 @And take a flat iron plate, and put it for a wall of iron between you and the town: and let your face be turned to it, and it will be shut in and you will make an attack on it. This will be a sign to the children of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:4:10 @And you are to take your food by weight, twenty shekels a day: you are to take it at regular times

bbe@Ezekiel:4:16 @And he said to me, Son of man, see, I will take away from Jerusalem her necessary bread: they will take their bread by weight and with care, measuring out their drinking-water with fear and wonder:

bbe@Ezekiel:5:1 @And you, son of man, take a sharp sword, using it like a haircutter's blade, and making it go over your head and the hair of your chin: and take scales for separating the hair by weight.

bbe@Ezekiel:6:9 @And those of you who are kept safe will have me in mind among the nations where they have been taken away as prisoners, how I sent punishment on their hearts which were untrue to me, and on their eyes which were turned to their false gods: and they will be full of hate for themselves because of the evil things which they have done in all their disgusting ways.

bbe@Ezekiel:6:13 @And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when their dead men are stretched among their images round about their altars on every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, and under every branching tree, and under every thick oak-tree, the places where they made sweet smells to all their images.

bbe@Ezekiel:7:10 @See, the day; see, it is coming: the crowning time has gone out; the twisted way is flowering, pride has put out buds.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:1 @Now in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, when I was in my house and the responsible men of Judah were seated before me, the hand of the Lord came on me there.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:3 @And he put out the form of a hand and took me by the hair of my head; and the wind, lifting me up between the earth and the heaven, took me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the way into the inner door facing to the north; where was the seat of the image of envy.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:10 @So I went in and saw; and there every sort of living thing which goes flat on the earth, and unclean beasts, and all the images of the children of Israel, were pictured round about on the wall.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:11 @And before them seventy of the responsible men of the children of Israel had taken their places, every man with a vessel for burning perfumes in his hand, and in the middle of them was Jaazaniah, the son of Shaphan; and a cloud of smoke went up from the burning perfume.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:14 @Then he took me to the door of the way into the Lord's house looking to the north; and there women were seated weeping for Tammuz.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:16 @And he took me into the inner square of the Lord's house, and at the door of the Temple of the Lord, between the covered way and the altar, there were about twenty-five men with their backs turned to the Temple of the Lord and their faces turned to the east; and they were worshipping the sun, turning to the east.

bbe@Ezekiel:9:2 @And six men came from the way of the higher doorway looking to the north, every man with his axe in his hand: and one man among them was clothed in linen, with a writer's inkpot at his side. And they went in and took their places by the brass altar.

bbe@Ezekiel:9:6 @Give up to destruction old men and young men and virgins, little children and women: but do not come near any man who has the mark on him: and make a start at my holy place. So they made a start with the old men who were before the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:9:8 @Now while they were doing so, and I was untouched, I went down on my face, and crying out, I said, Ah, Lord! will you give all the rest of Israel to destruction in letting loose your wrath on Jerusalem?

bbe@Ezekiel:10:2 @And he said to the man clothed in linen, Go in between the wheels, under the winged ones, and get your two hands full of burning coals from between the winged ones and send them in a shower over the town. And he went in before my eyes.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:3 @Now the winged ones were stationed on the right side of the house when the man went in; and the inner square was full of the cloud.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:4 @And the glory of the Lord went up from the winged ones and came to rest over the doorstep of the house; and the house was full of the cloud and the open square was full of the shining of the Lord's glory.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:6 @And when he gave orders to the man clothed in linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the winged ones, then he went in and took his place at the side of a wheel.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:7 @And stretching out his hand to the fire which was between the winged ones, he took some of it and went out.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:9 @And looking, I saw four wheels by the side of the winged ones, one wheel by the side of a winged one and another wheel by the side of another: and the wheels were like the colour of a beryl stone to the eye

bbe@Ezekiel:10:10 @In form the four of them were all the same, they seemed like a wheel inside a wheel.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:11 @When they were moving, they went on their four sides without turning; they went after the head in the direction in which it was looking; they went without turning.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:12 @And the edges of the four wheels were full of eyes round about.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:13 @As for the wheels, they were named in my hearing, the circling wheels.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:15 @And the winged ones went up on high: this is the living being which I saw by the river Chebar.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:16 @And when the winged ones went, the wheels went by their side: and when their wings were lifted to take them up from the earth, the wheels were not turned from their side.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:17 @When they were at rest in their place, these were at rest; when they were lifted up, these went up with them: for the spirit of life was in them.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:18 @Then the glory of the Lord went out from the doorstep of the house, and came to rest over the winged ones.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:19 @And the winged ones, lifting up their wings, went up from the earth before my eyes, with the wheels by their side: and they came to rest at the east doorway of the Lord's house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them on high.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:20 @This is the living being which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and it was clear to me that they were the winged ones.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:21 @Every one had four faces and every one had four wings; and hands like a man's hands were under their wings.

bbe@Ezekiel:10:22 @As for the form of their faces, they were the faces whose form I saw by the river Chebar; when they went, every one of them went straight forward.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:1 @And the wind, lifting me up, took me to the east doorway of the Lord's house, looking to the east: and at the door I saw twenty-five men; and among them I saw Jaazaniah, the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah, the son of Benaiah, rulers of the people.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:3 @Who say, This is not the time for building houses: this town is the cooking-pot and we are the flesh.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:22 @Then the wings of the winged ones were lifted up, and the wheels were by their side; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them on high.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:23 @And the glory of the Lord went up from inside the town, and came to rest on the mountain on the east side of the town.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:24 @And the wind, lifting me up, took me in the visions of God into Chaldaea, to those who had been taken away as prisoners. So the vision which I had seen went away from me.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:7 @And I did as I was ordered: I took out my vessels by day, like those of one who is taken away, and in the evening I made a hole through the wall with a tent-pin; and in the dark I went out, taking my things on my back before their eyes.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:19 @And say to the people of the land, This is what the Lord has said about the people of Jerusalem and the land of Israel: They will take their food with care and their drink with wonder, so that all the wealth of their land may be taken from it because of the violent ways of the people living in it.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:11 @Say to those who put whitewash on it, There will be an overflowing shower; and you, O ice-drops, will come raining down; and it will be broken in two by the storm-wind.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:13 @For this reason, the Lord has said: I will have it broken in two by a storm-wind in my passion; and there will be an overflowing shower in my wrath, and you, O ice-drops, will come raining angrily down.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:14 @So I will let the wall, which you were covering with whitewash, be broken down; I will have it levelled to the earth so that its base is uncovered: it will come down, and destruction will come on you with it; and it will be clear to you that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:21 @And I will have your veils violently parted in two, and will make my people free from your hands, and they will no longer be in your power for you to go after them; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:23 @For this cause you will see no more foolish visions or make false use of secret arts: and I will make my people free from your power; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:4 @For this cause say to them, These are the words of the Lord: Every man of Israel who has taken his false god into his heart, and put before his face the sin which is the cause of his fall, and comes to the prophet; I the Lord will give him an answer by myself in agreement with the number of his false gods;

bbe@Ezekiel:14:7 @When any one of the men of Israel, or of those from other lands who are living in Israel, who has become strange to me, and takes his false gods into his heart, and puts before his face the sin which is the cause of his fall, comes to the prophet to get directions from me; I the Lord will give him an answer by myself:

bbe@Ezekiel:14:14 @Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, only themselves would they keep safe by their righteousness, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:16 @Even if these three men were in it, by my life, says the Lord, they would not keep safe their sons or daughters, but only themselves, and the land would be made waste.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:18 @Even if these three men were in it, by my life, says the Lord, they would not keep safe their sons or daughters, but only themselves.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:20 @Even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it, by my life, says the Lord, they would not keep son or daughter safe; only themselves would they keep safe through their righteousness.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:4 @As for your birth, on the day of your birth your cord was not cut and you were not washed in water to make you clean; you were not salted or folded in linen bands.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:5 @No eye had pity on you to do any of these things to you or to be kind to you; but you were put out into the open country, because your life was hated at the time of your birth.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:6 @And when I went past you and saw you stretched out in your blood, I said to you, Though you are stretched out in your blood, have life;

bbe@Ezekiel:16:7 @And be increased in number like the buds of the field; and you were increased and became great, and you came to the time of love: your breasts were formed and your hair was long; but you were uncovered and without clothing.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:8 @Now when I went past you, looking at you, I saw that your time was the time of love; and I put my skirts over you, covering your unclothed body: and I gave you my oath and made an agreement with you, says the Lord, and you became mine.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:11 @And I made you fair with ornaments and put jewels on your hands and a chain on your neck.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:13 @So you were made beautiful with gold and silver; and your clothing was of the best linen and silk and needlework; your food was the best meal and honey and oil: and you were very beautiful.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:14 @You were so beautiful that the story of you went out into all nations; you were completely beautiful because of my glory which I had put on you, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:15 @But you put your faith in the fact that you were beautiful, acting like a loose woman because you were widely talked of, and offering your cheap love to everyone who went by, whoever it might be.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:17 @And you took the fair jewels, my silver and gold which I had given to you, and made for yourself male images, acting like a loose woman with them;

bbe@Ezekiel:16:19 @And my bread which I gave you, the best meal and oil and honey which I gave you for your food, you put it before them for a sweet smell, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:22 @And in all your disgusting and false behaviour you had no memory of your early days, when you were uncovered and without clothing, stretched out in your blood.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:25 @You put up your high places at the top of every street, and made the grace of your form a disgusting thing, opening your feet to everyone who went by, increasing your loose ways.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:26 @And you went with the Egyptians, your neighbours, great of flesh; increasing your loose ways, moving me to wrath.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:28 @And you went with the Assyrians, because of your desire which was without measure; you were acting like a loose woman with them, and still you had not enough.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:29 @And you went on in your loose ways, even as far as the land of Chaldaea, and still you had not enough.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:31 @For you have made your arched room at the top of every street, and your high place in every open place; though you were not like a loose woman in getting together your payment.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:37 @For this cause I will get together all your lovers with whom you have taken your pleasure, and all those to whom you have given your love, with all those who were hated by you; I will even make them come together against you on every side, and I will have you uncovered before them so that they may see your shame.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:39 @I will give you into their hands, and your arched room will be overturned and your high places broken down; they will take your clothing off you and take away your fair jewels: and when they have done, you will be uncovered and shamed.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:43 @Because you have not kept in mind the days when you were young, but have been troubling me with all these things; for this reason I will make the punishment of your ways come on your head, says the Lord, because you have done this evil thing in addition to all your disgusting acts.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:45 @You are the daughter of your mother whose soul is turned in disgust from her husband and her children; and you are the sister of your sisters who were turned in disgust from their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:49 @Truly, this was the sin of your sister Sodom: pride, a full measure of food, and the comforts of wealth in peace, were seen in her and her daughters, and she gave no help to the poor or to those in need.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:50 @They were full of pride and did what was disgusting to me: and so I took them away as you have seen.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:60 @But still I will keep in mind the agreement made with you in the days when you were young, and I will make with you an eternal agreement.

bbe@Ezekiel:17:6 @And its growth went on and it became a vine, low and widely stretching, whose branches were turned to him and its roots were under him: so it became a vine, putting out branches and young leaves.

bbe@Ezekiel:17:9 @Say, This is what the Lord has said: Will it do well? will he not have its roots pulled up and its branches cut off, so that all its young leaves may become dry and it may be pulled up by its roots?

bbe@Ezekiel:17:10 @And if it is planted will it do well? will it not become quite dry at the touch of the east wind, drying up in the bed where it was planted?

bbe@Ezekiel:17:14 @So that the kingdom might be made low with no power of lifting itself up, but might keep his agreement to be his servants.

bbe@Ezekiel:17:15 @But he went against his authority in sending representatives to Egypt to get from them horses and a great army. Will he do well? will he be safe who does such things? if the agreement is broken will he be safe?

bbe@Ezekiel:18:8 @And has not given his money out at interest or taken great profits, and, turning his hand from evil-doing, has kept faith between man and man,

bbe@Ezekiel:19:6 @And he went up and down among the lions and became a young lion, learning to go after beasts for his food; and he took men for his meat.

bbe@Ezekiel:19:12 @But she was uprooted in burning wrath, and made low on the earth; the east wind came, drying her up, and her branches were broken off; her strong rod became dry, the fire made a meal of it.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:1 @Now it came about in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, that certain of the responsible men of Israel came to get directions from the Lord and were seated before me.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:8 @But they would not be controlled by me, and did not give ear to me; they did not put away the disgusting things to which their eyes were turned, or give up the images of Egypt: then I said I would let loose my passion on them to give full effect to my wrath against them in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:9 @And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean before the eyes of the nations among whom they were, and before whose eyes I gave them knowledge of myself, by taking them out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:12 @And further, I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, so that it might be clear that I, who make them holy, am the Lord

bbe@Ezekiel:20:13 @But the children of Israel would not be controlled by me in the waste land: they were not guided by my rules, and they were turned away from my orders, which, if a man does them, will be life to him; and they had no respect for my Sabbaths: then I said that I would let loose my passion on them in the waste land, and put an end to them.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:16 @Because they were turned away from my orders, and were not guided by my rules, and had no respect for my Sabbaths: for their hearts went after their images.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:20 @And keep my Sabbaths holy; and they will be a sign between me and you so that it may be clear to you that I am the Lord your God.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:21 @But the children would not be controlled by me; they were not guided by my rules, and they did not keep and do my orders, which, if a man does them, will be life to him; and they had no respect for my Sabbaths: then I said I would let loose my passion on them to give full effect to my wrath against them in the waste land.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:24 @Because they had not done my orders, but had been turned away from my rules, and had not given respect to my Sabbaths, and their eyes were turned to the images of their fathers.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:25 @And further, I gave them rules which were not good and orders in which there was no life for them;

bbe@Ezekiel:20:28 @For when I had taken them into the land which I made an oath to give to them, then they saw every high hill and every branching tree and made their offerings there, moving me to wrath by their offerings; and there the sweet smell of their offerings went up and their drink offerings were drained out.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:32 @And that which comes into your minds will never take place; when you say, We will be like the nations, like the families of the countries, servants of wood and stone;

bbe@Ezekiel:20:41 @I will take pleasure in you as in a sweet smell, when I take you out from the peoples and get you together from the countries where you have been sent in flight; and I will make myself holy in you before the eyes of the nations.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:23 @And this answer given by secret arts will seem false to those who have given their oaths and have let them be broken: but he will keep the memory of evil-doing so that they may be taken.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:29 @Your vision is to no purpose, your use of secret arts gives a false answer, to put it on the necks of evil-doers who are wounded to death, whose day has come, in the time of the last punishment.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:30 @Go back into your cover. In the place where you were made, in the land from which you were taken, I will be your judge.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:25 @Her rulers in her are like a loud-voiced lion violently taking his food; they have made a meal of souls; they have taken wealth and valued property; they have made great the number of widows in her.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:26 @Her priests have been acting violently against my law; they have made my holy things unclean: they have made no division between what is holy and what is common, and they have not made it clear that the unclean is different from the clean, and their eyes have been shut to my Sabbaths, and I am not honoured among them.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:2 @Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother:

bbe@Ezekiel:23:3 @They were acting like loose women in Egypt; when they were young their behaviour was loose: there their breasts were crushed, even the points of their young breasts were crushed.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:4 @Their names were Oholah, the older, and Oholibah, her sister: and they became mine, and gave birth to sons and daughters. As for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem, Oholibah.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:6 @Who were clothed in blue, captains and rulers, all of them young men to be desired, horsemen seated on horses.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:7 @And she gave her unclean love to them, all of them the noblest men of Assyria: and she made herself unclean with the images of all who were desired by her.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:8 @And she has not given up her loose ways from the time when she was in Egypt; for when she was young they were her lovers, and by them her young breasts were crushed, and they let loose on her their unclean desire.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:13 @And I saw that she had become unclean; the two of them went the same way.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:19 @But still she went on the more with her loose behaviour, keeping in mind the early days when she had been a loose woman in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:21 @And she made the memory of the loose ways of her early years come back to mind, when her young breasts were crushed by the Egyptians.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:42 @... and they put jewels on her hands and beautiful crowns on her head.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:44 @And they went in to her, as men go to a loose woman: so they went in to Oholibah, the loose woman.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:2 @Son of man, put down in writing this very day: The king of Babylon let loose the weight of his attack against Jerusalem on this very day.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:5 @Take the best of the flock, put much wood under it: see that its bits are boiling well; let the bones be cooked inside it.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:10 @Put on much wood, heating up the fire, boiling the flesh well, and making the soup thick, and let the bones be burned.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:16 @Son of man, see, I am taking away the desire of your eyes by disease: but let there be no sorrow or weeping or drops running from your eyes.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:17 @Let there be no sound of sorrow; make no weeping for your dead, put on your head-dress and your shoes on your feet, let not your lips be covered, and do not take the food of those in grief.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:23 @And your head-dresses will be on your heads and your shoes on your feet: there will be no sorrow or weeping; but you will be wasting away in the punishment of your evil-doing, and you will be looking at one another in wonder.

bbe@Ezekiel:25:3 @And say to the children of Ammon, Give ear to the word of the Lord; this is what the Lord has said: Because you said, Aha! against my holy place when it was made unclean, and against the land of Israel when it was made waste, and against the people of Judah when they were taken away as prisoners;

bbe@Ezekiel:25:10 @To the children of the east I have given her for a heritage, as well as the children of Ammon, so that there may be no memory of her among the nations:

bbe@Ezekiel:26:4 @And they will give the walls of Tyre to destruction and have its towers broken: and I will take even her dust away from her, and make her an uncovered rock

bbe@Ezekiel:26:9 @He will put up his engines of war against your walls, and your towers will be broken down by his axes.

bbe@Ezekiel:26:12 @They will take by force all your wealth and go off with the goods with which you do trade: they will have your walls broken down and all the houses of your desire given up to destruction: they will put your stones and your wood and your dust deep in the water.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:8 @The people of Zidon and Arvad were your boatmen; the wise men of Zemer were in you; they were guiding your ships;

bbe@Ezekiel:27:9 @The responsible men of Gebal and its wise men were in you, making your boards watertight: all the ships of the sea with their seamen were in you trading in your goods.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:10 @Cush and Lud and Put were in your army, your men of war, hanging up their body-covers and head-dresses of war in you: they gave you your glory.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:11 @The men of Arvad in your army were on your walls, and were watchmen in your towers, hanging up their arms on your walls round about; they made you completely beautiful.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:12 @Tarshish did business with you because of the great amount of your wealth; they gave silver, iron, tin, and lead for your goods.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:13 @Javan, Tubal, and Meshech were your traders; they gave living men and brass vessels for your goods

bbe@Ezekiel:27:15 @The men of Rodan were your traders: a great number of sea-lands did business with you: they gave you horns of ivory and ebony as an offering.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:17 @Judah and the land of Israel were your traders; they gave grain of Minnith and sweet cakes and honey and oil and perfume for your goods.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:18 @Damascus did business with you because of the great amount of your wealth, with wine of Helbon and white wool.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:24 @These were your traders in beautiful robes, in rolls of blue and needlework, and in chests of coloured cloth, corded with cords and made of cedar-wood, in them they did trade with you.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:25 @Tarshish ships did business for you in your goods: and you were made full, and great was your glory in the heart of the seas.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:27 @Your wealth and your goods, the things in which you do trade, your seamen and those guiding your ships, those who make your boards watertight, and those who do business with your goods, and all your men of war who are in you, with all who have come together in you, will go down into the heart of the seas in the day of your downfall.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:31 @And they will have the hair of their heads cut off because of you, and will put haircloth on their bodies, weeping for you with bitter grief in their souls, even with bitter sorrow.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:32 @And in their weeping they will make a song of grief for you, sorrowing over you and saying, Who is like Tyre, who has come to an end in the deep sea?

bbe@Ezekiel:27:33 @When your goods went out over the seas, you made numbers of peoples full; the wealth of the kings of the earth was increased with your great wealth and all your goods.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:4 @By your wisdom and deep knowledge you have got power for yourself, and put silver and gold in your store-houses:

bbe@Ezekiel:28:5 @By your great wisdom and by your trade your power is increased, and your heart is lifted up because of your power:

bbe@Ezekiel:28:13 @You were in Eden, the garden of God; every stone of great price was your clothing, the sardius, the topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the emerald and the carbuncle: your store-houses were full of gold, and things of great price were in you; in the day when you were made they were got ready.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:14 @I gave you your place with the winged one; I put you on the mountain of God; you went up and down among the stones of fire.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:15 @There has been no evil in your ways from the day when you were made, till sin was seen in you

bbe@Ezekiel:28:17 @Your heart was lifted up because you were beautiful, you made your wisdom evil through your sin: I have sent you down, even to the earth; I have made you low before kings, so that they may see you.

bbe@Ezekiel:29:1 @In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:29:7 @When they took a grip of you in their hands, you were crushed so that their arms were broken: and when they put their weight on you for support, you were broken and all their muscles gave way.

bbe@Ezekiel:29:15 @It will be the lowest of the kingdoms, and never again will it be lifted up over the nations: I will make them small, so that they may not have rule over the nations.

bbe@Ezekiel:29:17 @Now in the twenty-seventh year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:29:19 @For this cause the Lord has said: See, I am giving the land of Egypt to Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon: he will take away her wealth, and take her goods by force and everything which is there; and this will be the payment for his army.

bbe@Ezekiel:29:20 @I have given him the land of Egypt as the reward for his hard work, because they were working for me, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:4 @And a sword will come on Egypt, and cruel pain will be in Ethiopia, when they are falling by the sword in Egypt; and they will take away her wealth and her bases will be broken down.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:6 @This is what the Lord has said: The supporters of Egypt will have a fall, and the pride of her power will come down: from Migdol to Syene they will be put to the sword in it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:18 @And at Tehaphnehes the day will become dark, when the yoke of Egypt is broken there, and the pride of her power comes to an end: as for her, she will be covered with a cloud, and her daughters will be taken away prisoners.

bbe@Ezekiel:30:21 @Son of man, the arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, has been broken by me, and no band has been put round it to make it well, no band has been twisted round it to make it strong for gripping the sword.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:2 @Son of man, say to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and to his people; Whom are you like in your great power?

bbe@Ezekiel:31:4 @It got strength from the waters and the deep made it tall: its streams went round about its planted land and it sent out its waterways to all the trees of the field.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:5 @In this way it became taller than all the trees of the field; and its branches were increased and its arms became long because of the great waters.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:6 @In its branches all the birds of heaven came to rest, and under its arms all the beasts of the field gave birth to their young, and great nations were living in its shade.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:8 @No cedars were equal to it in the garden of God; the fir-trees were not like its branches, and plane-trees were as nothing in comparison with its arms; no tree in the garden of God was so beautiful.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:9 @I made it beautiful with its mass of branches: so that all the trees in the garden of God were full of envy of it.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:14 @In order that no trees by the waters may be lifted up in their growth, putting their tops among the clouds; and that no trees which are watered may take their place on high: for they are all given up to death, to the lowest parts of the earth among the children of men, with those who go down to the underworld.

bbe@Ezekiel:31:17 @And they will go down with him to the underworld, to those who have been put to the sword; even those who were his helpers, living under his shade among the nations

bbe@Ezekiel:31:18 @Whom then are you like? for you will be sent down with the trees of Eden into the lowest parts of the earth: there you will be stretched out among those without circumcision, with those who were put to the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his people, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:1 @And it came about in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:32:2 @Son of man, make a song of grief for Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and say to him, Young lion of the nations, destruction has come on you; and you were like a sea-beast in the seas, sending out bursts of water, troubling the waters with your feet, making their streams dirty.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:17 @And in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:32:18 @Son of man, let your voice be loud in sorrow for the people of Egypt and send them down, even you and the daughters of the nations; I will send them down into the lowest parts of the earth, with those who go down into the underworld.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:23 @Whose resting-places are in the inmost parts of the underworld, who were a cause of fear in the land of the living

bbe@Ezekiel:32:24 @There is Elam and all her people, round about her last resting-place: all of them put to death by the sword, who have gone down without circumcision into the lowest parts of the earth, who were a cause of fear in the land of the living, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld:

bbe@Ezekiel:32:25 @They have made a bed for her among the dead, and all her people are round about her resting-place: all of them without circumcision, put to death with the sword; for they were a cause of fear in the land of the living, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld: they have been given a place among those who have been put to the sword.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:26 @There is Meshech, Tubal, and all her people, round about her last resting-place: all of them without circumcision, put to death by the sword; for they were a cause of fear in the land of the living.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:27 @And they have been put to rest with the fighting men who came to their end in days long past, who went down to the underworld with their instruments of war, placing their swords under their heads, and their body-covers are over their bones; for their strength was a cause of fear in the land of the living.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:29 @There is Edom, her kings and all her princes, who have been given a resting-place with those who were put to the sword: they will be resting among those without circumcision, even with those who go down to the underworld.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:10 @And you, son of man, say to the children of Israel, You say, Our wrongdoing and our sins are on us and we are wasting away in them; how then may we have life?

bbe@Ezekiel:33:21 @Now in the twelfth year after we had been taken away prisoners, in the tenth month, on the fifth day of the month, one who had got away in flight from Jerusalem came to me, saying, The town has been taken.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:24 @Son of man, those who are living in these waste places in the land of Israel say, Abraham was but one, and he had land for his heritage: but we are a great number; the land is given to us for our heritage.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:4 @You have not made the diseased ones strong or made well that which was ill; you have not put bands on the broken or got back that which had been sent away or made search for the wandering ones; and the strong you have been ruling cruelly.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:5 @And they were wandering in every direction because there was no keeper: and they became food for all the beasts of the field.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:6 @And my sheep went out of the way, wandering through all the mountains and on every high hill: my sheep went here and there over all the face of the earth; and no one was troubled about them or went in search of them.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:17 @And as for you, O my flock, says the Lord, truly, I will be judge between sheep and sheep, the he-sheep and the he-goats.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:20 @For this reason the Lord has said to them, Truly, I, even I, will be judge between the fat sheep and the thin sheep.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:21 @Because you have been pushing with side and leg, pushing the diseased with your horns till they were sent away in every direction;

bbe@Ezekiel:34:22 @I will make my flock safe, and they will no longer be taken away, and I will be judge between sheep and sheep.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:26 @And I will give the rain at the right time, and I will make the shower come down at the right time; there will be showers of blessing.

bbe@Ezekiel:35:5 @Because yours has been a hate without end, and you have given up the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their trouble, in the time of the punishment of the end:

bbe@Ezekiel:35:10 @Because you have said, The two nations and the two countries are to be mine, and we will take them for our heritage; though the Lord was there:

bbe@Ezekiel:35:14 @This is what the Lord has said: Because you were glad over my land when it was a waste, so will I do to you:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:2 @This is what the Lord has said: Because your hater has said against you, Aha! and, The old waste places are our heritage, we have taken them:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:11 @Man and beast will be increased in you, and they will have offspring and be fertile: I will make you thickly peopled as you were before, and will do more for you than at the first: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:17 @Son of man, when the children of Israel were living in their land, they made it unclean by their way and their acts: their way before me was as when a woman is unclean at the time when she is kept separate.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:20 @And when they came among the nations, wherever they went, they made my holy name unclean, when it was said of them, These are the people of the Lord who have gone out from his land.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:21 @But I had pity for my holy name which the children of Israel had made unclean wherever they went.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:22 @For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: I am doing this, not because of you, O children of Israel, but because of my holy name, which you have made unclean among the nations wherever you went.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:34 @And the land which was waste will be farmed, in place of being a waste in the eyes of everyone who went by.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:35 @And they will say, This land which was waste has become like the garden of Eden; and the towns which were unpeopled and wasted and pulled down are walled and peopled.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:36 @Then the rest of the nations round about you will be certain that I the Lord am the builder of the places which were pulled down and the planter of that which was waste: I the Lord have said it, and I will do it.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:2 @And he made me go past them round about: and I saw that there was a very great number of them on the face of the wide valley, and they were very dry.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:3 @And he said to me, Son of man, is it possible for these bones to come to life? And I made answer, and said, It is for you to say, O Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:8 @And looking I saw that there were muscles on them and flesh came up, and they were covered with skin: but there was no breath in them.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:11 @Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are all the children of Israel: and see, they are saying, Our bones have become dry our hope is gone, we are cut off completely.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:25 @And they will be living in the land which I gave to Jacob, my servant, in which your fathers were living; and they will go on living there, they and their children and their children's children, for ever: and David, my servant, will be their ruler for ever.

bbe@Ezekiel:38:13 @Sheba, and Dedan and her traders, Tarshish with all her traders, will say to you, Have you come to take our goods? have you got your armies together to take away our property by force? to take away silver and gold, cattle and goods, to go off with great wealth?

bbe@Ezekiel:38:17 @This is what the Lord has said: You are he of whom I gave them word in earlier times by my servants, the prophets of Israel, who in those days went on saying, year after year, that I would make you come up against them.

bbe@Ezekiel:38:22 @And I will take up my cause against him with disease and with blood; and I will send down on him and on his forces and on the peoples who are with him, an overflowing shower and great ice-drops, fire, and burning.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:23 @And it will be clear to the nations that the children of Israel were taken away prisoners for their evil-doing; because they did wrong against me, and my face was covered from them: so I gave them up into the hands of their attackers, and they all came to their end by the sword.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:1 @In the twenty-fifth year after we had been taken away prisoners, in the first month of the year, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the town was taken, on the very same day, the hand of the Lord was on me, and he took me there.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:6 @Then he came to the doorway looking to the east, and went up by its steps; and he took the measure of the doorstep, one rod wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:7 @And the watchmen's rooms were one rod long and one rod wide; and the space between the rooms was five cubits; the doorstep of the doorway, by the covered way of the doorway inside, was one rod.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:10 @And the rooms of the doorway on the east were three on this side and three on that; all three were of the same size; and the uprights on this side and on that were of the same size.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:13 @And he took the measure of the doorway from the back of one room to the back of the other, twenty-five cubits across, from door to door.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:14 @And he took the measure of the covered way, twenty cubits; and opening from the covered way of the doorway was the open square round about.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:16 @And the rooms and their uprights had sloping windows inside the doorway all round, and in the same way the covered way had windows all round on the inside: and on every upright there were palm-trees.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:17 @Then he took me into the outer square, and there were rooms and a stone floor made for the open square all round: there were thirty rooms on the stone floor.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:18 @And the stone floor was by the side of the doorways, and was as wide as the doorways were long, even the lower floor.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:19 @Then he took the measure of the square across, from before the lower doorway inside to before the inner doorway outside, one hundred cubits. And he took me in the direction of the north,

bbe@Ezekiel:40:21 @And it had three rooms on this side of it and three on that; its uprights and its covered ways were the same size as those of the first doorway: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:22 @And its windows, and the windows of its covered ways, and its palm-trees, were the same as those of the doorway looking to the east; and there were seven steps up to it; and the covered way went inside.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:25 @And there were windows in it and in the covered way all round, like the other windows: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:26 @And there were seven steps up to it, and its covered way went inside: and it had palm-trees, one on this side and one on that, on its uprights.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:30 @And there were windows in it and in the covered way all round: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:31 @The covered way was on the side nearest the outer square; and there were palm-trees on the uprights: and there were eight steps going up to it.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:33 @And of the rooms in it and its uprights and its covered ways, by these measures: and there were windows in it and in the covered way round about: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:34 @And the covered way was on the side nearest the outer square; there were palm-trees on the uprights, on this side and on that: and there were eight steps going up to it.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:36 @Its rooms, its uprights, and its covered way had the same measures, and its covered way had windows all round: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:37 @Its uprights were on the side nearest to the outer square; there were palm-trees on the uprights, on this side and on that: and there were eight steps going up to it.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:39 @And in the covered way of the doorway there were two tables on this side and two tables on that side, on which the burned offering and the sin-offering and the offering for error were put to death:

bbe@Ezekiel:40:40 @On the outer side, to the north, as one goes up to the opening of the doorway, were two tables.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:41 @There were four tables on one side and four tables on the other, by the side of the doorway; eight tables, on which they put to death the beasts for the offerings.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:42 @And there were four tables for the burned offering, made of cut stone, one and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide and a cubit high, where the instruments were placed which were used for putting to death the burned offering and the beasts for the offerings.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:44 @And he took me into the inner square, and there were two rooms in the inner square, one at the side of the north doorway, facing south; and one at the side of the south doorway, facing north.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:48 @Then he took me to the covered way before the house, and took the measure of its uprights, five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other: and the doorway was fourteen cubits wide; and the side-walls of the doorway were three cubits on one side and three cubits on the other.

bbe@Ezekiel:40:49 @The covered way was twenty cubits long and twelve cubits wide, and they went up to it by ten steps; and there were pillars by the uprights, one on one side and one on the other.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:2 @And the door-opening was ten cubits wide; and the side walls of the door-opening were five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other: and it was forty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:3 @And he went inside and took the measure of the uprights of the door-opening, two cubits: and the door-opening, six cubits; and the side-walls of the door-opening were seven cubits on one side and seven cubits on the other.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:4 @And by his measure it was twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide in front of the Temple: and he said to me, This is the most holy place.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:5 @Then he took the measure of the wall of the house, which was six cubits; and of the side-rooms round the house, which were four cubits wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:6 @And the side-rooms, room over room, were three times thirty; there were inlets in the wall of the house for the side-rooms round about, for supports in the wall of the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:7 @The side-rooms became wider as they went higher up the house, by the amount of the space let into the wall up round about the house, because of the inlets in the house; and one went up from the lowest floor by steps to the middle, and from the middle to the upper floor.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:8 @And I saw that the house had a stone floor all round; the bases of the side-rooms were a full rod of six great cubits high.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:9 @The wall supporting the side-rooms on the outside was five cubits thick: and there was a free space of five cubits between the side-rooms of the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:10 @And between the rooms was a space twenty cubits wide all round the house.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:12 @And the building which was in front of the separate place at the side to the west was seventy cubits wide; the wall of the building was five cubits thick all round and ninety cubits long.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:15 @And he took the measure of the building in front of the separate place which was at the back of it, and the pillared walks on one side and on the other side; they were a hundred cubits long; and the Temple and the inner part and its outer covered way were covered in;

bbe@Ezekiel:41:16 @And the sloping windows and the covered ways round all three of them were of shakiph-wood all round from the level of the earth up to the windows;

bbe@Ezekiel:41:18 @And it had pictured forms of winged beings and palm-trees; a palm-tree between two winged ones, and every winged one had two faces;

bbe@Ezekiel:41:20 @From earth level up to the windows there were winged ones and palm-trees pictured on the wall.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:22 @The altar was made of wood, and was three cubits high and two cubits long; it had angles, and its base and sides were of wood; and he said to me, This is the table which is before the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:25 @And on them were pictured winged ones and palm-trees, as on the walls; and a... of wood was on the front of the covered way outside.

bbe@Ezekiel:41:26 @And there were sloping windows and palm-trees on one side and on the other, on the sides of the covered way: and the side-rooms of the house and the...

bbe@Ezekiel:42:1 @And he took me out into the inner square in the direction of the north: and he took me into the rooms which were opposite the separate place and opposite the building to the north.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:3 @Opposite the space of twenty cubits which was part of the inner square, and opposite the stone floor of the outer square. There were covered ways facing one another on the third floor.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:4 @And in front of the rooms was a walk, ten cubits wide and a hundred cubits long; and their doors were facing north.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:5 @And the higher rooms were shorter: for the covered ways took up more space from these than from the lower and middle rooms.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:6 @For they were on three floors, and they had no pillars like the pillars of the outer square; so the highest was narrower than the lowest and middle floors from the earth level.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:7 @And the wall which went outside by the side of the rooms, in the direction of the outer square in front of the rooms, was fifty cubits long.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:8 @For the rooms in the outer square were fifty cubits long: and in front of the Temple was a space of a hundred cubits.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:10 @(And he took me) to the south, and in front of the separate place and in front of the building there were rooms.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:11 @And there was a walk in front of them like that by the rooms on the north; they were equally long and wide; and the ways out of them were the same in design and had the same sort of doors.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:16 @He went round and took the measure of it on the east side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:17 @And he went round and took the measure of it on the north side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:18 @And he went round and took the measure of it on the south side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.

bbe@Ezekiel:42:19 @And he went round and took the measure of it on the west side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.

bbe@Ezekiel:43:3 @And the vision which I saw was like the vision I had seen when he came for the destruction of the town: and like the vision which I saw by the river Chebar; and I went down on my face.

bbe@Ezekiel:43:7 @And he said to me, Son of man, this is the place where the seat of my power is and the resting-place of my feet, where I will be among the children of Israel for ever: and no longer will the people of Israel make my holy name unclean, they or their kings, by their loose ways and by the dead bodies of their kings;

bbe@Ezekiel:43:8 @By putting their doorstep by my doorstep, and the pillar of their door by the pillar of my door, with only a wall between me and them; and they have made my holy name unclean by the disgusting things which they have done: so in my wrath I sent destruction on them.

bbe@Ezekiel:43:14 @And from the base on the earth level to the lower shelf, the altar is two cubits high and a cubit wide; and from the smaller shelf to the greater shelf it is four cubits high and a cubit wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:43:16 @And the fireplace is twelve cubits long and twelve cubits wide, square on its four sides.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:4 @And he took me to the north doorway in front of the house; and, looking, I saw that the house of the Lord was full of the glory of the Lord; and I went down on my face.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:10 @But as for the Levites, who went far from me, when Israel went out of the right way, turning away from me to go after their images; their punishment will come on them.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:15 @But as for the priests, the sons of Zadok, who took care of my holy place when the children of Israel were turned away from me, they are to come near me to do my work, they will take their places before me, offering to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord;

bbe@Ezekiel:44:18 @They are to have linen head-dresses on their heads and linen trousers on their legs, and they are to have nothing round them to make their skin wet with heat.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:23 @And they are to make clear to my people the division between what is holy and what is common, and to give them the knowledge of what is clean and what is unclean.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:1 @And when you are making a distribution of the land, by the decision of the Lord, for your heritage, you are to make an offering to the Lord of a part of the land as holy: it is to be twenty-five thousand long and twenty thousand wide: all the land inside these limits is to be holy.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:3 @And of this measure, let a space be measured, twenty-five thousand long and ten thousand wide: in it there will be the holy place, even the most holy.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:5 @A space of land twenty-five thousand long and ten thousand wide is to be for the Levites, the servants of the house, a property for themselves, for towns for their living-places.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:6 @And as the property for the town you are to have a part five thousand wide and twenty-five thousand long, by the side of the offering of the holy part of the land: this is to be for all the children of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:7 @And for the ruler there is to be a part on one side and on the other side of the holy offering and of the property of the town, in front of the holy offering and in front of the property of the town on the west of it and on the east: measured in the same line as one of the parts of the land, from its limit on the west to its limit on the east of the land.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:12 @And the shekel is to be twenty gerahs: five shekels are five, and ten shekels are ten, and your maneh is to be fifty shekels

bbe@Ezekiel:46:9 @But when the people of the land come before the Lord at the fixed feasts, he who comes in by the north doorway to give worship is to go out by the south doorway; and he who comes in by the south doorway is to go out by the north doorway: he is not to come back by the doorway through which he went in, but is to go straight before him.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:19 @And he took me through by the way in at the side of the doorway into the holy rooms which are the priests', looking to the north: and I saw a place at the side of them to the west.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:22 @In the four angles there were spaces walled in, forty cubits long and thirty wide; the four were of the same size.

bbe@Ezekiel:46:23 @And there was a line of wall all round inside them, round all four, and boiling-places were made under it all round about.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:1 @And he took me back to the door of the house; and I saw that waters were flowing out from under the doorstep of the house on the east, for the house was facing east: and the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south side of the altar.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:3 @And the man went out to the east with the line in his hand, and after measuring a thousand cubits, he made me go through the waters, which came over my feet.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:8 @And he said to me, These waters are flowing out to the east part of the land and down into the Arabah; and they will go to the sea, and the waters will be made sweet.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:9 @And it will come about that every living and moving thing, wherever their streams come, will have life; and there will be very much fish because these waters have come there and have been made sweet: and everything wherever the river comes will have life.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:11 @The wet places and the pools will not be made sweet; they will be given up to salt.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:12 @And by the edge of the river, on this side and on that, will come up every tree used for food, whose leaves will ever be green and its fruit will not come to an end: it will have new fruit every month, because its waters come out from the holy place: the fruit will be for food and the leaf will make well those who are ill.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:13 @This is what the Lord has said: These are the limits by which you will take up your heritage in the land among the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph is to have two parts.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:16 @To Zedad, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the limit of Damascus and the limit of Hazar-hatticon, which is on the limit of Hauran.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:18 @And the east side will be from Hazar-enon, which is between Hauran and Damascus; and between Gilead and the land of Israel the Jordan will be the limit, to the east sea, to Tamar. This is the east side.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:20 @And the west side will be the Great Sea, from the limit on the south to a point opposite the way into Hamath. This is the west side.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:22 @And you are to make a distribution of it, by the decision of the Lord, for a heritage to you and to the men from other lands who are living among you and who have children in your land: they will be the same to you as if they were Israelites by birth, they will have their heritage with you among the tribes of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:1 @Now these are the names of the tribes: from the north end, from the west on the way of Hethlon to the way into Hamath, in the direction of Hazar-enon, with the limit of Damascus to the north, by Hamath; and on the limit from the east side to the west side: Dan, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:2 @And on the limit of Dan, from the east side to the west side: Asher, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:3 @And on the limit of Asher, from the east side to the west side: Naphtali, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:4 @And on the limit of Naphtali, from the east side to the west side: Manasseh, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:5 @And on the limit of Manasseh, from the east side to the west side: Ephraim, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:6 @And on the limit of Ephraim, from the east side to the west side: Reuben, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:7 @And on the limit of Reuben, from the east side to the west side: Judah, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:8 @And on the limit of Judah, from the east side to the west side, will be the offering which you are to make, twenty-five thousand wide, and as long as one of the parts, from the east side to the west side: and the holy place will be in the middle of it.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:9 @The offering you will give to the Lord is to be twenty-five thousand long and twenty-five thousand wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:10 @And for these, that is the priests, the holy offering is to be twenty-five thousand long to the north, ten thousand wide to the west, ten thousand wide to the east and twenty-five thousand long to the south; and the holy place of the Lord will be in the middle of it.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:11 @For the priests who have been made holy, those of the sons of Zadok who kept the orders I gave them, who did not go out of the right way when the children of Israel went from the way, as the Levites did,

bbe@Ezekiel:48:13 @And the Levites are to have a part of the land equal to the limit of the priests', twenty-five thousand long and ten thousand wide, all of it together to be twenty-five thousand long and twenty thousand wide.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:15 @And the other five thousand, measured from side to side, in front of the twenty-five thousand, is to be for common use, for the town, for living in and for a free space: and the town will be in the middle of it.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:16 @And these will be its measures: the north side, four thousand five hundred, and the south side, four thousand five hundred, and on the east side, four thousand five hundred, and on the west side, four thousand five hundred.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:17 @And the town will have a free space on the north of two hundred and fifty, on the south of two hundred and fifty, on the east of two hundred and fifty, and on the west of two hundred and fifty.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:18 @And the rest, in measure as long as the holy offering, will be ten thousand to the east and ten thousand to the west: and its produce will be for food for the workers of the town.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:20 @The size of the offering all together is to be twenty-five thousand by twenty-five thousand: you are to make the holy offering a square, together with the property of the town.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:21 @And the rest is to be for the prince, on this side and on that side of the holy offering and of the property of the town, in front of the twenty-five thousand to the east, as far as the east limit, and to the west, in front of the twenty-five thousand, as far as the west limit, and of the same measure as those parts; it will be the property of the prince: and the holy offering and holy place of the house will be in the middle of it.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:22 @And the property of the Levites and the property of the town will be in the middle of the prince's property; between the limit of Judah's part and the limit of Benjamin's part will be for the prince.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:23 @And as for the rest of the tribes: from the east side to the west side: Benjamin, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:24 @And on the limit of Benjamin, from the east side to the west side: Simeon, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:25 @And on the limit of Simeon, from the east side to the west side: Issachar, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:26 @And on the limit of Issachar, from the east side to the west side: Zebulun, one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:27 @And on the limit of Zebulun, from the east side to the west side: Gad one part.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:34 @At the west side, four thousand five hundred by measure, with their three doors, one for Gad, one for Asher, one for Naphtali.

bbe@Daniel:1:4 @Young men who were strong and healthy, good-looking, and trained in all wisdom, having a good education and much knowledge, and able to take positions in the king's house; and to have them trained in the writing and language of the Chaldaeans.

bbe@Daniel:1:5 @And a regular amount of food and wine every day from the king's table was ordered for them by the king; and they were to be cared for for three years so that at the end of that time they might take their places before the king.

bbe@Daniel:1:6 @And among these there were, of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.

bbe@Daniel:1:15 @And at the end of ten days their faces seemed fairer and they were fatter in flesh than all the young men who had their food from the king's table.

bbe@Daniel:1:19 @And the king had talk with them; and among them all there was no one like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah; so they were given places before the king.

bbe@Daniel:1:20 @And in any business needing wisdom and good sense, about which the king put questions to them, he saw that they were ten times better than all the wonder-workers and users of secret arts in all his kingdom.

bbe@Daniel:1:21 @And Daniel went on till the first year of King Cyrus.

bbe@Daniel:2:1 @In the second year of the rule of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams; and his spirit was troubled and his sleep went from him.

bbe@Daniel:2:2 @Then the king gave orders that the wonder-workers, and the users of secret arts, and those who made use of evil powers, and the Chaldaeans, were to be sent for to make clear to the king his dreams. So they came and took their places before the king.

bbe@Daniel:2:4 @Then the Chaldaeans said to the king in the Aramaean language, O King, have life for ever: give your servants an account of your dream, and we will make clear to you the sense of it.

bbe@Daniel:2:5 @The king made answer and said to the Chaldaeans, This is my decision: if you do not make clear to me the dream and the sense of it, you will be cut in bits and your houses made waste.

bbe@Daniel:2:7 @A second time they said in answer, Let the king give his servants an account of his dream, and we will make clear the sense.

bbe@Daniel:2:8 @The king made answer and said, I am certain that you are attempting to get more time, because you see that my decision is fixed;

bbe@Daniel:2:10 @Then the Chaldaeans said to the king in answer, There is not a man on earth able to make clear the king's business; for no king, however great his power, has ever made such a request to any wonder-worker or user of secret arts or Chaldaean.

bbe@Daniel:2:13 @So the order went out that the wise men were to be put to death; and they were looking for Daniel and his friends to put them to death.

bbe@Daniel:2:14 @Then Daniel gave an answer with wisdom and good sense to Arioch, the captain of the king's armed men, who had gone out to put to death the wise men of Babylon;

bbe@Daniel:2:15 @He made answer and said to Arioch, O captain of the king, why is the king's order so cruel? Then Arioch gave Daniel an account of the business.

bbe@Daniel:2:16 @And Daniel went in and made a request to the king to give him time and he would make clear the sense of his dream to the king.

bbe@Daniel:2:17 @And Daniel went to his house and gave his friends Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah the news:

bbe@Daniel:2:20 @And Daniel said in answer, May the name of God be praised for ever and ever: for wisdom and strength are his:

bbe@Daniel:2:23 @I give you praise and worship, O God of my fathers, who have given me wisdom and strength, and have now made clear to me what we were requesting from you: for you have given us knowledge of the king's business.

bbe@Daniel:2:24 @For this reason Daniel went to Arioch, to whom the king had given orders for the destruction of the wise men of Babylon, and said to him, Do not put to death the wise men of Babylon: take me in before the king and I will make clear to him the sense of the dream.

bbe@Daniel:2:26 @The king made answer and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Are you able to make clear to me the dream which I saw and its sense?

bbe@Daniel:2:27 @Then Daniel said in answer to the king, No wise men, or users of secret arts, or wonder-workers, or readers of signs, are able to make clear to the king the secret he is searching for;

bbe@Daniel:2:29 @As for you, O King, the thoughts which came to you on your bed were of what will come about after this: and the unveiler of secrets has made clear to you what is to come.

bbe@Daniel:2:31 @You, O King, were looking, and a great image was there. This image, which was very great, and whose glory was very bright, was placed before you: its form sent fear into the heart.

bbe@Daniel:2:32 @As for this image, its head was made of the best gold, its breast and its arms were of silver, its middle and its sides were of brass,

bbe@Daniel:2:33 @Its legs of iron, its feet were in part of iron and in part of potter's earth.

bbe@Daniel:2:34 @While you were looking at it, a stone was cut out, but not by hands, and it gave the image a blow on its feet, which were of iron and earth, and they were broken in bits.

bbe@Daniel:2:35 @Then the iron and the earth, the brass and the silver and the gold, were smashed together, and became like the dust on the floors where grain is crushed in summer; and the wind took them away so that no sign of them was to be seen: and the stone which gave the image a blow became a great mountain, covering all the earth.

bbe@Daniel:2:36 @This is the dream; and we will make clear to the king the sense of it.

bbe@Daniel:2:37 @You, O King, king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the glory,

bbe@Daniel:2:39 @And after you another kingdom, lower than you, will come to power; and a third kingdom, of brass, ruling over all the earth.

bbe@Daniel:2:40 @And the fourth kingdom will be strong as iron: because, as all things are broken and overcome by iron, so it will have the power of crushing and smashing down all the earth.

bbe@Daniel:2:42 @And as the toes of the feet were in part of iron and in part of earth, so part of the kingdom will be strong and part of it will readily be broken.

bbe@Daniel:2:44 @And in the days of those kings, the God of heaven will put up a kingdom which will never come to destruction, and its power will never be given into the hands of another people, and all these kingdoms will be broken and overcome by it, but it will keep its place for ever.

bbe@Daniel:2:45 @Because you saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that by it the iron and the brass and the earth and the silver and the gold were broken to bits, a great God has given the king knowledge of what is to take place in the future: the dream is fixed, and its sense is certain.

bbe@Daniel:2:47 @And the king made answer to Daniel and said, Truly, your God is a God of gods and a Lord of kings, and an unveiler of secrets, for you have been able to make this secret clear.

bbe@Daniel:3:7 @So at that time, all the people, when the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, and all sorts of instruments, came to their ears, went down on their faces in worship before the image of gold which Nebuchadnezzar the king had put up.

bbe@Daniel:3:9 @They made answer and said to Nebuchadnezzar the king, O King, have life for ever.

bbe@Daniel:3:14 @Nebuchadnezzar made answer and said to them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, that you will not be servants of my god or give worship to the image of gold which I have put up?

bbe@Daniel:3:15 @Now if you are ready, on hearing the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe, and all sorts of instruments, to go down on your faces in worship before the image which I have made, it is well: but if you will not give worship, that same hour you will be put into a burning and flaming fire; and what god is there who will be able to take you out of my hands?

bbe@Daniel:3:16 @Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answering Nebuchadnezzar the king, said, There is no need for us to give you an answer to this question.

bbe@Daniel:3:17 @If our God, whose servants we are, is able to keep us safe from the burning and flaming fire, and from your hands, O King, he will keep us safe.

bbe@Daniel:3:18 @But if not, be certain, O King, that we will not be the servants of your gods, or give worship to the image of gold which you have put up.

bbe@Daniel:3:21 @Then these men had cords put round them as they were, in their coats, their trousers, their hats, and their clothing, and were dropped into the burning and flaming fire.

bbe@Daniel:3:22 @And because the king's order was not to be put on one side, and the heat of the fire was so great, the men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego were burned to death by the flame of the fire.

bbe@Daniel:3:23 @And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, with the cords about them, went down into the burning and flaming fire.

bbe@Daniel:3:24 @Then King Nebuchadnezzar, full of fear and wonder, got up quickly, and said to his wise men, Did we not put three men in cords into the fire? and they made answer and said to the king, True, O King.

bbe@Daniel:3:25 @He made answer and said, Look! I see four men loose, walking in the middle of the fire, and they are not damaged; and the form of the fourth is like a son of the gods.

bbe@Daniel:3:26 @Then Nebuchadnezzar came near the door of the burning and flaming fire: he made answer and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, you servants of the Most High God, come out and come here. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego came out of the fire.

bbe@Daniel:3:27 @And the captains, the chiefs, and the rulers, and the king's wise men who had come together, saw these men, over whose bodies the fire had no power, and not a hair of their heads was burned, and their coats were not changed, and there was no smell of fire about them.

bbe@Daniel:3:28 @Nebuchadnezzar made answer and said, Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who has sent his angel and kept his servants safe who had faith in him, and who put the king's word on one side and gave up their bodies to the fire, so that they might not be servants or worshippers of any other god but their God.

bbe@Daniel:4:3 @How great are his signs! and how full of power are his wonders! his kingdom is an eternal kingdom and his rule goes on from generation to generation.

bbe@Daniel:4:4 @I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at rest in my place, and all things were going well for me in my great house:

bbe@Daniel:4:12 @Its leaves were fair and it had much fruit, and in it was food enough for all: the beasts of the field had shade under it, and the birds of heaven were resting in its branches, and it gave food to all living things.

bbe@Daniel:4:15 @But keep its broken end and its roots still in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass; let him have the young grass of the field for food, and let him be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his part be with the beasts.

bbe@Daniel:4:17 @This order is fixed by the watchers, and the decision is by the word of the holy ones: so that the living may be certain that the Most High is ruler over the kingdom of men, and gives it to any man at his pleasure, lifting up over it the lowest of men.

bbe@Daniel:4:19 @Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was at a loss for a time, his thoughts troubling him. The king made answer and said, Belteshazzar, do not be troubled by the dream or by the sense of it. Belteshazzar, answering, said, My lord, may the dream be about your haters, and its sense about those who are against you.

bbe@Daniel:4:21 @Which had fair leaves and much fruit, and had in it food for all; under which the beasts of the field were living, and in the branches of which the birds of heaven had their resting-places:

bbe@Daniel:4:22 @It is you, O King, who have become great and strong: for your power is increased and stretching up to heaven, and your rule to the end of the earth.

bbe@Daniel:4:25 @That they will send you out from among men, to be with the beasts of the field; they will give you grass for your food like the oxen, and you will be wet with the dew of heaven, and seven times will go by you, till you are certain that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and gives it to any man at his pleasure.

bbe@Daniel:4:27 @For this cause, O King, let my suggestion be pleasing to you, and let your sins be covered by righteousness and your evil-doing by mercy to the poor, so that the time of your well-being may be longer.

bbe@Daniel:4:29 @At the end of twelve months he was walking on the roof of his great house in Babylon.

bbe@Daniel:4:30 @The king made answer and said, Is this not great Babylon, which I have made for the living-place of kings, by the strength of my power and for the glory of my honour?

bbe@Daniel:4:33 @That very hour the order about Nebuchadnezzar was put into effect: and he was sent out from among men, and had grass for his food like the oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hair became long as eagles' feathers and his nails like those of birds.

bbe@Daniel:4:36 @At the same time my reason came back to me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my honour and my great name came back to me; and my wise men and my lords were turned to me again; and I was made safe in my kingdom and had more power than before.

bbe@Daniel:5:5 @In that very hour the fingers of a man's hand were seen, writing opposite the support for the light on the white wall of the king's house, and the king saw the part of the hand which was writing.

bbe@Daniel:5:6 @Then the colour went from the king's face, and he was troubled by his thoughts; strength went from his body, and his knees were shaking.

bbe@Daniel:5:7 @The king, crying out with a loud voice, said that the users of secret arts, the Chaldaeans, and the readers of signs, were to be sent for. The king made answer and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whoever is able to make out this writing, and make clear to me the sense of it, will be clothed in purple and have a chain of gold round his neck, and will be a ruler of high authority in the kingdom.

bbe@Daniel:5:8 @Then all the king's wise men came in: but they were not able to make out the writing or give the sense of it to the king.

bbe@Daniel:5:9 @Then King Belshazzar was greatly troubled and the colour went from his face, and his lords were at a loss.

bbe@Daniel:5:10 @The queen, because of the words of the king and his lords, came into the house of the feast: the queen made answer and said, O King, have life for ever; do not be troubled by your thoughts or let the colour go from your face:

bbe@Daniel:5:11 @There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of your father, light and reason like the wisdom of the gods were seen in him: and King Nebuchadnezzar, your father, made him master of the wonder-workers, and the users of secret arts, and the Chaldaeans, and the readers of signs;

bbe@Daniel:5:12 @Because a most special spirit, and knowledge and reason and the power of reading dreams and unfolding dark sayings and answering hard questions, were seen to be in him, even in Daniel (named Belteshazzar by the king): now let Daniel be sent for, and he will make clear the sense of the writing

bbe@Daniel:5:13 @Then they took Daniel in before the king; the king made answer and said to Daniel, So you are that Daniel, of the prisoners of Judah, whom my father took out of Judah.

bbe@Daniel:5:16 @And I have had news of you, that you have the power of making things clear, and of answering hard questions: now if you are able to make out the writing and give me the sense of it, you will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain round your neck and be a ruler of high authority in the kingdom.

bbe@Daniel:5:17 @Then Daniel made answer and said to the king, Keep your offerings for yourself, and give your rewards to another; but I, after reading the writing to the king, will give him the sense of it.

bbe@Daniel:5:18 @As for you, O King, the Most High God gave to Nebuchadnezzar, your father, the kingdom and great power and glory and honour:

bbe@Daniel:5:19 @And because of the great power he gave him, all peoples and nations and languages were shaking in fear before him: some he put to death and others he kept living, at his pleasure, lifting up some and putting others down as it pleased him.

bbe@Daniel:5:21 @And he was sent out from among the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts', and he was living with the asses of the fields; he had grass for his food like the oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till he was certain that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and gives power over it to anyone at his pleasure.

bbe@Daniel:5:23 @But you have been lifting yourself up against the Lord of heaven, and they have put the vessels of his house before you, and you and your lords, your wives and your women, have taken wine in them; and you have given praise to gods of silver and gold, of brass and iron and wood and stone, who are without the power of seeing or hearing, and without knowledge: and to the God in whose hand your breath is, and whose are all your ways, you have not given glory;

bbe@Daniel:5:27 @Tekel; you have been put in the scales and seen to be under weight.

bbe@Daniel:6:1 @Darius was pleased to put over the kingdom a hundred and twenty captains, who were to be all through the kingdom;

bbe@Daniel:6:2 @And over them were three chief rulers, of whom Daniel was one; and the captains were to be responsible to the chief rulers, so that the king might undergo no loss.

bbe@Daniel:6:4 @Then the chief rulers and the captains were looking for some cause for putting Daniel in the wrong in connection with the kingdom, but they were unable to put forward any wrongdoing or error against him; because he was true, and no error or wrong was to be seen in him.

bbe@Daniel:6:5 @Then these men said, We will only get a reason for attacking Daniel in connection with the law of his God.

bbe@Daniel:6:10 @And Daniel, on hearing that the writing had been signed, went into his house; (now he had windows in his room on the roof opening in the direction of Jerusalem;) and three times a day he went down on his knees in prayer and praise before his God, as he had done before.

bbe@Daniel:6:11 @Then these men were watching and saw Daniel making prayers and requesting grace before his God.

bbe@Daniel:6:12 @Then they came near before the king and said, O King, have you not put your name to an order that any man who makes a request to any god or man but you, O King, for thirty days, is to be put into the lions' hole? The king made answer and said, The thing is fixed by the law of the Medes and Persians which may not come to an end.

bbe@Daniel:6:13 @Then they made answer and said before the king, Daniel, one of the prisoners of Judah, has no respect for you, O King, or for the order signed by you, but three times a day he makes his prayer to God.

bbe@Daniel:6:14 @When this thing came to the king's ears, it was very evil to him, and his heart was fixed on keeping Daniel safe, and till the going down of the sun he was doing everything in his power to get him free

bbe@Daniel:6:16 @Then the king gave the order, and they took Daniel and put him into the lions' hole. The king made answer and said to Daniel, Your God, whose servant you are at all times, will keep you safe.

bbe@Daniel:6:18 @Then the king went to his great house, and took no food that night, and no... were placed before him, and his sleep went from him.

bbe@Daniel:6:19 @Then very early in the morning the king got up and went quickly to the lions' hole.

bbe@Daniel:6:20 @And when he came near the hole where Daniel was, he gave a loud cry of grief; the king made answer and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, is your God, whose servant you are at all times, able to keep you safe from the lions?

bbe@Daniel:6:24 @And at the king's order, they took those men who had said evil against Daniel, and put them in the lions' hole, with their wives and their children; and they had not got to the floor of the hole before the lions overcame them and all their bones were broken.

bbe@Daniel:6:27 @He gives salvation and makes men free from danger, and does signs and wonders in heaven and earth, who has kept Daniel safe from the power of the lions.

bbe@Daniel:6:28 @So this Daniel did well in the kingdom of Darius and in the kingdom of Cyrus the Persian.

bbe@Daniel:7:4 @The first was like a lion and had eagle's wings; while I was watching its wings were pulled off, and it was lifted up from the earth and placed on two feet like a man, and a man's heart was given to it.

bbe@Daniel:7:5 @And I saw another beast, like a bear, and it was lifted up on one side, and three side-bones were in its mouth, between its teeth: and they said to it, Up! take much flesh.

bbe@Daniel:7:6 @After this I saw another beast, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings like those of a bird; and the beast had four heads, and the power of a ruler was given to it.

bbe@Daniel:7:7 @After this, in my vision of the night, I saw a fourth beast, a thing causing fear and very troubling, full of power and very strong; and it had great iron teeth: it took its food, crushing some of it to bits and stamping down the rest with its feet: it was different from all the beasts before it; and it had ten horns.

bbe@Daniel:7:8 @I was watching the horns with care, and I saw another coming up among them, a little one, before which three of the first horns were pulled up by the roots: and there were eyes like a man's eyes in this horn, and a mouth saying great things.

bbe@Daniel:7:9 @I went on looking till the seats of kings were placed, and one like a very old man took his seat: his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head was like clean wool; his seat was flames of fire and its wheels burning fire.

bbe@Daniel:7:10 @A stream of fire was flowing and coming out from before him: a thousand thousands were his servants, and ten thousand times ten thousand were in their places before him: the judge was seated and the books were open.

bbe@Daniel:7:14 @And to him was given authority and glory and a kingdom; and all peoples, nations, and languages were his servants: his authority is an eternal authority which will not come to an end, and his kingdom is one which will not come to destruction.

bbe@Daniel:7:15 @As for me, Daniel, my spirit was pained because of this, and the visions of my head were troubling me.

bbe@Daniel:7:16 @I came near to one of those who were waiting there, questioning him about what all this was

bbe@Daniel:7:19 @Then it was my desire to have certain knowledge about the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, a cause of great fear, whose teeth were of iron and his nails of brass; who took his food, crushing some of it to bits and stamping on the rest with his feet;

bbe@Daniel:7:24 @And as for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will come to power; and after them another will come up: he will be different from the first ones and will put down three kings.

bbe@Daniel:7:27 @And the kingdom and the authority and the power of the kingdoms under all the heaven will be given to the people of the saints of the Most High: his kingdom is an eternal kingdom, and all powers will be his servants and do his pleasure.

bbe@Daniel:7:28 @Here is the end of the account. As for me, Daniel, I was greatly troubled by my thoughts, and the colour went from my face: but I kept the thing in my heart.

bbe@Daniel:8:3 @And lifting up my eyes, I saw, there before the stream, a male sheep with two horns: and the two horns were high, but one was higher than the other, the higher one coming up last.

bbe@Daniel:8:4 @I saw the sheep pushing to the west and to the north and to the south; and no beasts were able to keep their place before him, and no one was able to get people out of his power; but he did whatever his pleasure was and made himself great.

bbe@Daniel:8:5 @And while I was giving thought to this, I saw a he-goat coming from the west over the face of all the earth without touching the earth: and the he-goat had a great horn between his eyes.

bbe@Daniel:8:6 @And he came to the two-horned sheep which I saw before the stream, rushing at him in the heat of his power.

bbe@Daniel:8:7 @And I saw him come right up to the sheep, and he was moved with wrath against him, attacking the sheep so that his two horns were broken; and the sheep had not strength to keep his place before him, but was pushed down on the earth and crushed under his feet: and there was no one to get the sheep out of his power.

bbe@Daniel:8:12 @... against the regular burned offering; and... crushed down to the earth, and it did its pleasure and things went well for it.

bbe@Daniel:8:16 @And the voice of a man came to my ears between the sides of the Ulai, crying out and saying, Gabriel, make the vision clear to this man.

bbe@Daniel:8:17 @So he came and took his place near where I was; and when he came, I was full of fear and went down on my face: but he said to me, Let it be clear to you, O son of man; for the vision has to do with the time of the end.

bbe@Daniel:8:18 @Now while he was talking to me, I went into a deep sleep with my face to the earth: but touching me, he put me on my feet where I had been

bbe@Daniel:8:21 @And the he-goat is the king of Greece: and the great horn between his eyes is the first king.

bbe@Daniel:8:22 @And as for that which was broken, in place of which four came up, four kingdoms will come up from his nation, but not with his power.

bbe@Daniel:8:24 @And his power will be great, and he will be purposing strange things. And all will go well for him and he will do his pleasure; and he will send destruction on the strong ones.

bbe@Daniel:8:25 @And his designs will be turned against the holy people, causing deceit to do well in his hand; in his heart he will make himself great, and send destruction on numbers who are living unconscious of their danger; and he will put himself up against the prince of princes; but he will be broken, though not by men's hands.

bbe@Daniel:9:5 @We are sinners, acting wrongly and doing evil; we have gone against you, turning away from your orders and from your laws:

bbe@Daniel:9:6 @We have not given ear to your servants the prophets, who said words in your name to our kings and our rulers and our fathers and all the people of the land.

bbe@Daniel:9:9 @With the Lord our God are mercies and forgiveness, for we have gone against him;

bbe@Daniel:9:11 @And all Israel have been sinners against your law, turning away so as not to give ear to your voice: and the curse has been let loose on us, and the oath recorded in the law of Moses, the servant of God, for we have done evil against him.

bbe@Daniel:9:12 @And he has given effect to his words which he said against us and against those who were our judges, by sending a great evil on us: for under all heaven there has not been done what has been done to Jerusalem.

bbe@Daniel:9:13 @As it was recorded in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us: but we have made no prayer for grace from the Lord our God that we might be turned from our evil doings and come to true wisdom.

bbe@Daniel:9:14 @So the Lord has been watching over this evil and has made it come on us: for the Lord our God is upright in all his acts which he has done, and we have not given ear to his voice.

bbe@Daniel:9:15 @And now, O Lord our God, who took your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand and made a great name for yourself even to this day; we are sinners, we have done evil.

bbe@Daniel:9:18 @O my God, let your ear be turned and give hearing; let your eyes be open and see how we have been made waste and the town which is named by your name: for we are not offering our prayers before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercies.

bbe@Daniel:9:21 @Even while I was still in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at first when my weariness was great, put his hand on me about the time of the evening offering.

bbe@Daniel:9:23 @At the first word of your prayer a word went out, and I have come to give you knowledge; for you are a man dearly loved: so give thought to the word and let the vision be clear to you.

bbe@Daniel:9:24 @Seventy weeks have been fixed for your people and your holy town, to let wrongdoing be complete and sin come to its full limit, and for the clearing away of evil-doing and the coming in of eternal righteousness: so that the vision and the word of the prophet may be stamped as true, and to put the holy oil on a most holy place.

bbe@Daniel:9:25 @Have then the certain knowledge that from the going out of the word for the building again of Jerusalem till the coming of a prince, on whom the holy oil has been put, will be seven weeks: in sixty-two weeks its building will be complete, with square and earthwork.

bbe@Daniel:9:26 @And at the end of the times, even after the sixty-two weeks, one on whom the holy oil has been put will be cut off and have no...; and the town and the holy place will be made waste together with a prince; and the end will come with an overflowing of waters, and even to the end there will be war; the making waste which has been fixed.

bbe@Daniel:9:27 @And a strong order will be sent out against the great number for one week; and so for half of the week the offering and the meal offering will come to an end; and in its place will be an unclean thing causing fear; till the destruction which has been fixed is let loose on him who has made waste.

bbe@Daniel:10:2 @In those days I, Daniel, gave myself up to grief for three full weeks.

bbe@Daniel:10:3 @I had no pleasing food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, and I put no oil on my body till three full weeks were ended.

bbe@Daniel:10:4 @And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was by the side of the great river;

bbe@Daniel:10:6 @And his body was like the beryl, and his face had the look of a thunder-flame, and his eyes were like burning lights, and his arms and feet like the colour of polished brass, and the sound of his voice was like the sound of an army.

bbe@Daniel:10:7 @And I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see it; but a great shaking came on them and they went in flight to take cover.

bbe@Daniel:10:8 @So I was by myself, and I saw this great vision, and all my strength went from me; and the colour went from my face.

bbe@Daniel:10:9 @But the sound of his words came to my ears, and on hearing his voice I went into a deep sleep with my face to the earth

bbe@Daniel:10:13 @But the angel of the kingdom of Persia put himself against me for twenty-one days; but Michael, one of the chief angels, came to my help; and when I came he was still there with the angel of the kings of Persia.

bbe@Daniel:10:17 @For how may this servant of my lord have talk with my lord? for, as for me, straight away my strength went from me and there was no breath in my body.

bbe@Daniel:11:2 @And now I will make clear to you what is true. There are still three kings to come in Persia, and the fourth will have much greater wealth than all of them: and when he has become strong through his wealth, he will put his forces in motion against all the kingdoms of Greece.

bbe@Daniel:11:3 @And a strong king will come to power, ruling with great authority and doing whatever is his pleasure.

bbe@Daniel:11:6 @And at the end of years they will be joined together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she will not keep the strength of her arm; and his offspring will not keep their place; but she will be uprooted, with those who were the cause of her coming, and her son, and he who took her in those times.

bbe@Daniel:11:13 @And again the king of the north will get together an army greater than the first; and he will make an attack on him at the end of years, with a great army and much wealth.

bbe@Daniel:11:15 @So the king of the north will come, and put up earthworks and take a well-armed town: and the forces of the king of the south will make an attempt to keep their position, even the best of his army, but they will not have strength to do so.

bbe@Daniel:11:20 @Then his place will be taken by one who will send out a man with the glory of a king to get wealth together; but after a short time destruction will overtake him, but not in wrath or in the fight.

bbe@Daniel:11:25 @And he will put in motion his power and his strength against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south will go to war with a very great and strong army: but he will be forced to give way, because of their designs against him;

bbe@Daniel:11:28 @And he will go back to his land with great wealth; and his heart will be against the holy agreement; and he will do his pleasure and go back to his land.

bbe@Daniel:11:30 @For those who go out from the west will come against him, and he will be in fear and will go back, full of wrath against the holy agreement; and he will do his pleasure: and he will go back and be united with those who have given up the holy agreement.

bbe@Daniel:11:32 @And those who do evil against the agreement will be turned to sin by his fair words: but the people who have knowledge of their God will be strong and do well.

bbe@Daniel:11:36 @And the king will do his pleasure; he will put himself on high, lifting himself over every god, and saying things to be wondered at against the God of gods; and all will be well for him till the wrath is complete; for what has been purposed will be done.

bbe@Daniel:11:38 @But in place of this he will give honour to the god of armed places, and to a god of whom his fathers had no knowledge he will give honour with gold and silver and jewels and things to be desired.

bbe@Daniel:11:43 @But he will have power over the stores of gold and silver, and over all the valued things of the south: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians will be at his steps.

bbe@Daniel:11:45 @He will put the tents of his great house between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain: but he will come to his end with no helper.

bbe@Daniel:12:7 @Then in my hearing the man clothed in linen, who was over the river, lifting up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, took an oath by him who is living for ever that it would be a time, times, and a half; and when the power of the crusher of the holy people comes to an end, all these things will be ended.
