rsv@Genesis:1:19 @ And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

rsv@Genesis:1:20 @ And God said, "Let the waters bring forth swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the firmament of the heavens."

rsv@Genesis:1:21 @ So God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

rsv@Genesis:1:24 @ And God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds." And it was so.

rsv@Genesis:1:26 @ Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth."

rsv@Genesis:2:10 @ A river flowed out of Eden to water the garden, and there it divided and became four rivers.

rsv@Genesis:2:14 @ And the name of the third river is Tigris, which flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.

rsv@Genesis:2:19 @ So out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.

rsv@Genesis:3:1 @ Now the serpent was more subtle than any other wild creature that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God say, `You shall not eat of any tree of the garden'?"

rsv@Genesis:3:5 @ For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

rsv@Genesis:3:14 @ The LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, cursed are you above all cattle, and above all wild animals; upon your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life.

rsv@Genesis:3:15 @ I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel."

rsv@Genesis:3:16 @ To the woman he said, "I will greatly multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children, yet your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you."

rsv@Genesis:3:17 @ And to Adam he said, "Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you, `You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground because of you; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life;

rsv@Genesis:3:19 @ In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; you are dust, and to dust you shall return."

rsv@Genesis:3:24 @ He drove out the man; and at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.

rsv@Genesis:4:3 @ In the course of time Cain brought to the LORD an offering of the fruit of the ground,

rsv@Genesis:4:6 @ The LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry, and why has your countenance fallen?

rsv@Genesis:4:9 @ Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?" He said, "I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?"

rsv@Genesis:4:10 @ And the LORD said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground.

rsv@Genesis:4:11 @ And now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.

rsv@Genesis:5:29 @ and called his name Noah, saying, "Out of the ground which the LORD has cursed this one shall bring us relief from our work and from the toil of our hands."

rsv@Genesis:6:14 @ Make yourself an ark of gopher wood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and out with pitch.

rsv@Genesis:6:18 @ But I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall come into the ark, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.

rsv@Genesis:7:1 @ Then the LORD said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation.

rsv@Genesis:7:11 @ In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.

rsv@Genesis:7:21 @ And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, birds, cattle, beasts, all swarming creatures that swarm upon the earth, and every man;

rsv@Genesis:8:9 @ but the dove found no place to set her foot, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. So he put forth his hand and took her and brought her into the ark with him.

rsv@Genesis:8:12 @ Then he waited another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she did not return to him any more.

rsv@Genesis:8:16 @ "Go forth from the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons' wives with you.

rsv@Genesis:8:20 @ Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

rsv@Genesis:8:21 @ And when the LORD smelled the pleasing odor, the LORD said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I ever again destroy every living creature as I have done.

rsv@Genesis:9:2 @ The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every bird of the air, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea; into your hand they are delivered.

rsv@Genesis:9:5 @ For your lifeblood I will surely require a reckoning; of every beast I will require it and of man; of every man's brother I will require the life of man.

rsv@Genesis:9:9 @ "Behold, I establish my covenant with you and your descendants after you,

rsv@Genesis:9:10 @ and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark.

rsv@Genesis:9:12 @ And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations:

rsv@Genesis:9:15 @ I will remember my covenant which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.

rsv@Genesis:9:16 @ When the bow is in the clouds, I will look upon it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth."

rsv@Genesis:9:23 @ Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it upon both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father's nakedness.

rsv@Genesis:9:25 @ he said, "Cursed be Canaan; a slave of slaves shall he be to his brothers."

rsv@Genesis:10:22 @ The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arpach'shad, Lud, and Aram.

rsv@Genesis:11:3 @ And they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly." And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar.

rsv@Genesis:11:4 @ Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth."

rsv@Genesis:11:13 @ and Arpach'shad lived after the birth of Shelah four hundred and three years, and had other sons and daughters.

rsv@Genesis:11:15 @ and Shelah lived after the birth of Eber four hundred and three years, and had other sons and daughters.

rsv@Genesis:11:16 @ When Eber had lived thirty-four years, he became the father of Peleg;

rsv@Genesis:11:17 @ and Eber lived after the birth of Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and had other sons and daughters.

rsv@Genesis:11:28 @ Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chalde'ans.

rsv@Genesis:11:31 @ Terah took Abram his son and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sar'ai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife, and they went forth together from Ur of the Chalde'ans to go into the land of Canaan; but when they came to Haran, they settled there.

rsv@Genesis:12:1 @ Now the LORD said to Abram, "Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you.

rsv@Genesis:12:2 @ And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing.

rsv@Genesis:12:3 @ I will bless those who bless you, and him who curses you I will curse; and by you all the families of the earth shall bless themselves."

rsv@Genesis:12:7 @ Then the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, "To your descendants I will give this land." So he built there an altar to the LORD, who had appeared to him.

rsv@Genesis:12:9 @ And Abram journeyed on, still going toward the Negeb.

rsv@Genesis:12:10 @ Now there was a famine in the land. So Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was severe in the land.

rsv@Genesis:12:13 @ Say you are my sister, that it may go well with me because of you, and that my life may be spared on your account."

rsv@Genesis:12:18 @ So Pharaoh called Abram, and said, "What is this you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?

rsv@Genesis:12:19 @ Why did you say, `She is my sister,' so that I took her for my wife? Now then, here is your wife, take her, and be gone."

rsv@Genesis:13:3 @ And he journeyed on from the Negeb as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,

rsv@Genesis:13:8 @ Then Abram said to Lot, "Let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are kinsmen.

rsv@Genesis:13:9 @ Is not the whole land before you? Separate yourself from me. If you take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if you take the right hand, then I will go to the left."

rsv@Genesis:13:11 @ So Lot chose for himself all the Jordan valley, and Lot journeyed east; thus they separated from each other.

rsv@Genesis:13:14 @ The LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, "Lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward;

rsv@Genesis:13:15 @ for all the land which you see I will give to you and to your descendants for ever.

rsv@Genesis:13:16 @ I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if one can count the dust of the earth, your descendants also can be counted.

rsv@Genesis:14:5 @ In the fourteenth year Ched-or-lao'mer and the kings who were with him came and subdued the Reph'aim in Ash'teroth-karna'im, the Zuzim in Ham, the Emim in Sha'veh-kiriatha'im,

rsv@Genesis:14:7 @ then they turned back and came to Enmish'pat (that is, Kadesh), and subdued all the country of the Amal'ekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt in Haz'azon-ta'mar.

rsv@Genesis:14:9 @ with Ched-or-lao'mer king of Elam, Tidal king of Goi'im, Am'raphel king of Shinar, and Ar'ioch king of Ella'sar, four kings against five.

rsv@Genesis:14:14 @ When Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen of them, and went in pursuit as far as Daniel.

rsv@Genesis:14:15 @ And he divided his forces against them by night, he and his servants, and routed them and pursued them to Hobah, north of Damascus.

rsv@Genesis:14:17 @ After his return from the defeat of Ched-or-lao'mer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley).

rsv@Genesis:14:20 @ and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand!" And Abram gave him a tenth of everything.

rsv@Genesis:14:21 @ And the king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the persons, but take the goods for yourself."

rsv@Genesis:14:23 @ that I would not take a thread or a sandal-thong or anything that is yours, lest you should say, `I have made Abram rich.'

rsv@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, "Fear not, Abram, I am your shield; your reward shall be very great."

rsv@Genesis:15:4 @ And behold, the word of the LORD came to him, "This man shall not be your heir; your own son shall be your heir."

rsv@Genesis:15:5 @ And he brought him outside and said, "Look toward heaven, and number the stars, if you are able to number them." Then he said to him, "So shall your descendants be."

rsv@Genesis:15:7 @ And he said to him, "I am the LORD who brought you from Ur of the Chalde'ans, to give you this land to possess."

rsv@Genesis:15:9 @ He said to him, "Bring me a heifer three years old, a she-goat three years old, a ram three years old, a turtledove, and a young pigeon."

rsv@Genesis:15:13 @ Then the LORD said to Abram, "Know of a surety that your descendants will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, and will be slaves there, and they will be oppressed for four hundred years;

rsv@Genesis:15:15 @ As for yourself, you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried in a good old age.

rsv@Genesis:15:16 @ And they shall come back here in the fourth generation; for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete."

rsv@Genesis:15:18 @ On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, "To your descendants I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphra'tes,

rsv@Genesis:16:5 @ And Sar'ai said to Abram, "May the wrong done to me be on you! I gave my maid to your embrace, and when she saw that she had conceived, she looked on me with contempt. May the LORD judge between you and me!"

rsv@Genesis:16:6 @ But Abram said to Sar'ai, "Behold, your maid is in your power; do to her as you please." Then Sar'ai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her.

rsv@Genesis:16:7 @ The angel of the LORD found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, the spring on the way to Shur.

rsv@Genesis:16:9 @ The angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit to her."

rsv@Genesis:16:10 @ The angel of the LORD also said to her, "I will so greatly multiply your descendants that they cannot be numbered for multitude."

rsv@Genesis:16:11 @ And the angel of the LORD said to her, "Behold, you are with child, and shall bear a son; you shall call his name Ish'mael; because the LORD has given heed to your affliction.

rsv@Genesis:17:5 @ No longer shall your name be Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.

rsv@Genesis:17:7 @ And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you.

rsv@Genesis:17:8 @ And I will give to you, and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God."

rsv@Genesis:17:9 @ And God said to Abraham, "As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations.

rsv@Genesis:17:10 @ This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your descendants after you: Every male among you shall be circumcised.

rsv@Genesis:17:11 @ You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskins, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and you.

rsv@Genesis:17:12 @ He that is eight days old among you shall be circumcised; every male throughout your generations, whether born in your house, or bought with your money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring,

rsv@Genesis:17:13 @ both he that is born in your house and he that is bought with your money, shall be circumcised. So shall my covenant be in your flesh an everlasting covenant.

rsv@Genesis:17:15 @ And God said to Abraham, "As for Sar'ai your wife, you shall not call her name Sar'ai, but Sarah shall be her name.

rsv@Genesis:17:19 @ God said, "No, but Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.

rsv@Genesis:18:3 @ and said, "My lord, if I have found favor in your sight, do not pass by your servant.

rsv@Genesis:18:4 @ Let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree,

rsv@Genesis:18:5 @ while I fetch a morsel of bread, that you may refresh yourselves, and after that you may pass on--since you have come to your servant." So they said, "Do as you have said."

rsv@Genesis:18:6 @ And Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and said, "Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes."

rsv@Genesis:18:8 @ Then he took curds, and milk, and the calf which he had prepared, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree while they ate.

rsv@Genesis:18:9 @ They said to him, "Where is Sarah your wife?" And he said, "She is in the tent."

rsv@Genesis:18:10 @ The LORD said, "I will surely return to you in the spring, and Sarah your wife shall have a son." And Sarah was listening at the tent door behind him.

rsv@Genesis:18:12 @ So Sarah laughed to herself, saying, "After I have grown old, and my husband is old, shall I have pleasure?"

rsv@Genesis:18:14 @ Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, in the spring, and Sarah shall have a son."

rsv@Genesis:18:22 @ So the men turned from there, and went toward Sodom; but Abraham still stood before the LORD.

rsv@Genesis:18:33 @ And the LORD went his way, when he had finished speaking to Abraham; and Abraham returned to his place.

rsv@Genesis:19:2 @ and said, "My lords, turn aside, I pray you, to your servant's house and spend the night, and wash your feet; then you may rise up early and go on your way." They said, "No; we will spend the night in the street."

rsv@Genesis:19:3 @ But he urged them strongly; so they turned aside to him and entered his house; and he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.

rsv@Genesis:19:4 @ But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, both young and old, all the people to the last man, surrounded the house;

rsv@Genesis:19:9 @ But they said, "Stand back!" And they said, "This fellow came to sojourn, and he would play the judge! Now we will deal worse with you than with them." Then they pressed hard against the man Lot, and drew near to break the door.

rsv@Genesis:19:15 @ When morning dawned, the angels urged Lot, saying, "Arise, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the punishment of the city."

rsv@Genesis:19:17 @ And when they had brought them forth, they said, "Flee for your life; do not look back or stop anywhere in the valley; flee to the hills, lest you be consumed."

rsv@Genesis:19:19 @ behold, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have shown me great kindness in saving my life; but I cannot flee to the hills, lest the disaster overtake me, and I die.

rsv@Genesis:19:28 @ and he looked down toward Sodom and Gomor'rah and toward all the land of the valley, and beheld, and lo, the smoke of the land went up like the smoke of a furnace.

rsv@Genesis:19:31 @ And the first-born said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man on earth to come in to us after the manner of all the earth.

rsv@Genesis:19:32 @ Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve offspring through our father."

rsv@Genesis:19:34 @ And on the next day, the first-born said to the younger, "Behold, I lay last night with my father; let us make him drink wine tonight also; then you go in and lie with him, that we may preserve offspring through our father."

rsv@Genesis:20:1 @ From there Abraham journeyed toward the territory of the Negeb, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur; and he sojourned in Gerar.

rsv@Genesis:20:6 @ Then God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know that you have done this in the integrity of your heart, and it was I who kept you from sinning against me; therefore I did not let you touch her.

rsv@Genesis:20:7 @ Now then restore the man's wife; for he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you shall live. But if you do not restore her, know that you shall surely die, you, and all that are yours."

rsv@Genesis:20:16 @ To Sarah he said, "Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver; it is your vindication in the eyes of all who are with you; and before every one you are righted."

rsv@Genesis:21:12 @ But God said to Abraham, "Be not displeased because of the lad and because of your slave woman; whatever Sarah says to you, do as she tells you, for through Isaac shall your descendants be named.

rsv@Genesis:21:13 @ And I will make a nation of the son of the slave woman also, because he is your offspring."

rsv@Genesis:21:18 @ Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him fast with your hand; for I will make him a great nation."

rsv@Genesis:21:23 @ now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me or with my offspring or with my posterity, but as I have dealt loyally with you, you will deal with me and with the land where you have sojourned."

rsv@Genesis:21:32 @ So they made a covenant at Beer-sheba. Then Abim'elech and Phicol the commander of his army rose up and returned to the land of the Philistines.

rsv@Genesis:21:34 @ And Abraham sojourned many days in the land of the Philistines.

rsv@Genesis:22:2 @ He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Mori'ah, and offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

rsv@Genesis:22:3 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac; and he cut the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.

rsv@Genesis:22:6 @ And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So they went both of them together.

rsv@Genesis:22:7 @ And Isaac said to his father Abraham, "My father!" And he said, "Here am I, my son." He said, "Behold, the fire and the wood; but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"

rsv@Genesis:22:8 @ Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they went both of them together.

rsv@Genesis:22:12 @ He said, "Do not lay your hand on the lad or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me."

rsv@Genesis:22:13 @ And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son.

rsv@Genesis:22:16 @ and said, "By myself I have sworn, says the LORD, because you have done this, and have not withheld your son, your only son,

rsv@Genesis:22:17 @ I will indeed bless you, and I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore. And your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies,

rsv@Genesis:22:18 @ and by your descendants shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves, because you have obeyed my voice."

rsv@Genesis:22:19 @ So Abraham returned to his young men, and they arose and went together to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.

rsv@Genesis:22:20 @ Now after these things it was told Abraham, "Behold, Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

rsv@Genesis:23:2 @ And Sarah died at Kir'iath-ar'ba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan; and Abraham went in to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.

rsv@Genesis:23:4 @ "I am a stranger and a sojourner among you; give me property among you for a burying place, that I may bury my dead out of my sight."

rsv@Genesis:23:6 @ "Hear us, my lord; you are a mighty prince among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our sepulchres; none of us will withhold from you his sepulchre, or hinder you from burying your dead."

rsv@Genesis:23:8 @ And he said to them, "If you are willing that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me Ephron the son of Zohar,

rsv@Genesis:23:9 @ that he may give me the cave of Mach-pe'lah, which he owns; it is at the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me in your presence as a possession for a burying place."

rsv@Genesis:23:11 @ "No, my lord, hear me; I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it; in the presence of the sons of my people I give it to you; bury your dead."

rsv@Genesis:23:13 @ And he said to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, "But if you will, hear me; I will give the price of the field; accept it from me, that I may bury my dead there."

rsv@Genesis:23:15 @ "My lord, listen to me; a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between you and me? Bury your dead."

rsv@Genesis:23:16 @ Abraham agreed with Ephron; and Abraham weighed out for Ephron the silver which he had named in the hearing of the Hittites, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the weights current among the merchants.

rsv@Genesis:23:19 @ After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Mach-pe'lah east of Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan.

rsv@Genesis:23:20 @ The field and the cave that is in it were made over to Abraham as a possession for a burying place by the Hittites.

rsv@Genesis:24:2 @ And Abraham said to his servant, the oldest of his house, who had charge of all that he had, "Put your hand under my thigh,

rsv@Genesis:24:5 @ The servant said to him, "Perhaps the woman may not be willing to follow me to this land; must I then take your son back to the land from which you came?"

rsv@Genesis:24:7 @ The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my birth, and who spoke to me and swore to me, `To your descendants I will give this land,' he will send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.

rsv@Genesis:24:14 @ Let the maiden to whom I shall say, `Pray let down your jar that I may drink,' and who shall say, `Drink, and I will water your camels'--let her be the one whom thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac. By this I shall know that thou hast shown steadfast love to my master."

rsv@Genesis:24:17 @ Then the servant ran to meet her, and said, "Pray give me a little water to drink from your jar."

rsv@Genesis:24:19 @ When she had finished giving him a drink, she said, "I will draw for your camels also, until they have done drinking."

rsv@Genesis:24:21 @ The man gazed at her in silence to learn whether the LORD had prospered his journey or not.

rsv@Genesis:24:23 @ and said, "Tell me whose daughter you are. Is there room in your father's house for us to lodge in?"

rsv@Joshua:8:20 @ So when the men of Ai looked back, behold, the smoke of the city went up to heaven; and they had no power to flee this way or that, for the people that fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers.

rsv@1Samuel:14:21 @ Now the Hebrews who had been with the Philistines before that time and who had gone up with them into the camp, even they also turned to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.

rsv@1Samuel:14:24 @ And the men of Israel were distressed that day; for Saul laid an oath on the people, saying, "Cursed be the man who eats food until it is evening and I am avenged on my enemies." So none of the people tasted food.

rsv@Daniel:7:7 @ After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, terrible and dreadful and exceedingly strong; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet.

rsv@Daniel:7:9 @ As I looked, thrones were placed and one that was ancient of days took his seat; his raiment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, its wheels were burning fire.

rsv@Daniel:7:10 @ A stream of fire issued and came forth from before him; a thousand thousands served him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him; the court sat in judgment, and the books were opened.

rsv@Daniel:7:11 @ I looked then because of the sound of the great words which the horn was speaking. And as I looked, the beast was slain, and its body destroyed and given over to be burned with fire.

rsv@Daniel:7:17 @ `These four great beasts are four kings who shall arise out of the earth.

rsv@Daniel:8:12 @ And the host was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering through transgression; and truth was cast down to the ground, and the horn acted and prospered.

rsv@Daniel:8:13 @ Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to the one that spoke, "For how long is the vision concerning the continual burnt offering, the transgression that makes desolate, and the giving over of the sanctuary and host to be trampled under foot?"

rsv@Hosea:4:13 @ They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains, and make offerings upon the hills, under oak, poplar, and terebinth, because their shade is good. Therefore your daughters play the harlot, and your brides commit adultery.

rsv@Hosea:4:14 @ I will not punish your daughters when they play the harlot, nor your brides when they commit adultery; for the men themselves go aside with harlots, and sacrifice with cult prostitutes, and a people without understanding shall come to ruin.

rsv@Hosea:4:16 @ Like a stubborn heifer, Israel is stubborn; can the LORD now feed them like a lamb in a broad pasture?

rsv@Hosea:5:4 @ Their deeds do not permit them to return to their God. For the spirit of harlotry is within them, and they know not the LORD.

rsv@Hosea:6:3 @ Let us know, let us press on to know the LORD; his going forth is sure as the dawn; he will come to us as the showers, as the spring rains that water the earth."

rsv@Hosea:6:4 @ What shall I do with you, O E'phraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? Your love is like a morning cloud, like the dew that goes early away.

rsv@Hosea:6:9 @ As robbers lie in wait for a man, so the priests are banded together; they murder on the way to Shechem, yea, they commit villainy.

rsv@Hosea:7:5 @ On the day of our king the princes became sick with the heat of wine; he stretched out his hand with mockers.

rsv@Hosea:8:5 @ I have spurned your calf, O Sama'ria. My anger burns against them. How long will it be till they are pure

rsv@Hosea:8:7 @ For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind. The standing grain has no heads, it shall yield no meal; if it were to yield, aliens would devour it.

rsv@Hosea:8:13 @ They love sacrifice; they sacrifice flesh and eat it; but the LORD has no delight in them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and punish their sins; they shall return to Egypt.

rsv@Hosea:8:14 @ For Israel has forgotten his Maker, and built palaces; and Judah has multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour his strongholds.

rsv@Hosea:9:1 @ Rejoice not, O Israel! Exult not like the peoples; for you have played the harlot, forsaking your God. You have loved a harlot's hire upon all threshing floors.

rsv@Hosea:9:4 @ They shall not pour libations of wine to the LORD; and they shall not please him with their sacrifices. Their bread shall be like mourners' bread; all who eat of it shall be defiled; for their bread shall be for their hunger only; it shall not come to the house of the LORD.

rsv@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of punishment have come, the days of recompense have come; Israel shall know it. The prophet is a fool, the man of the spirit is mad, because of your great iniquity and great hatred.

rsv@Hosea:9:10 @ Like grapes in the wilderness, I found Israel. Like the first fruit on the fig tree, in its first season, I saw your fathers. But they came to Ba'al-pe'or, and consecrated themselves to Ba'al, and became detestable like the thing they loved.

rsv@Hosea:10:1 @ Israel is a luxuriant vine that yields its fruit. The more his fruit increased the more altars he built; as his country improved he improved his pillars.

rsv@Hosea:10:4 @ They utter mere words; with empty oaths they make covenants; so judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field.

rsv@Hosea:10:5 @ The inhabitants of Sama'ria tremble for the calf of Beth-a'ven. Its people shall mourn for it, and its idolatrous priests shall wail over it, over its glory which has departed from it.

rsv@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow for yourselves righteousness, reap the fruit of steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the LORD, that he may come and rain salvation upon you.

rsv@Hosea:10:13 @ You have plowed iniquity, you have reaped injustice, you have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your chariots and in the multitude of your warriors,

rsv@Hosea:10:14 @ therefore the tumult of war shall arise among your people, and all your fortresses shall be destroyed, as Shalman destroyed Beth-ar'bel on the day of battle; mothers were dashed in pieces with their children.

rsv@Hosea:10:15 @ Thus it shall be done to you, O house of Israel, because of your great wickedness. In the storm the king of Israel shall be utterly cut off.

rsv@Hosea:11:2 @ The more I called them, the more they went from me; they kept sacrificing to the Ba'als, and burning incense to idols.

rsv@Hosea:11:5 @ They shall return to the land of Egypt, and Assyria shall be their king, because they have refused to return to me.

rsv@Hosea:11:6 @ The sword shall rage against their cities, consume the bars of their gates, and devour them in their fortresses.

rsv@Hosea:11:7 @ My people are bent on turning away from me; so they are appointed to the yoke, and none shall remove it.

rsv@Hosea:11:9 @ I will not execute my fierce anger, I will not again destroy E'phraim; for I am God and not man, the Holy One in your midst, and I will not come to destroy.

rsv@Hosea:11:11 @ they shall come trembling like birds from Egypt, and like doves from the land of Assyria; and I will return them to their homes, says the LORD.

rsv@Hosea:12:1 @ E'phraim herds the wind, and pursues the east wind all day long; they multiply falsehood and violence; they make a bargain with Assyria, and oil is carried to Egypt.

rsv@Hosea:12:6 @ "So you, by the help of your God, return, hold fast to love and justice, and wait continually for your God."

rsv@Hosea:12:8 @ E'phraim has said, "Ah, but I am rich, I have gained wealth for myself": but all his riches can never offset the guilt he has incurred.

rsv@Hosea:12:9 @ I am the LORD your God from the land of Egypt; I will again make you dwell in tents, as in the days of the appointed feast.

rsv@Hosea:12:11 @ If there is iniquity in Gilead they shall surely come to nought; if in Gilgal they sacrifice bulls, their altars also shall be like stone heaps on the furrows of the field.

rsv@Hosea:12:14 @ E'phraim has given bitter provocation; so his LORD will leave his bloodguilt upon him, and will turn back upon him his reproaches.

rsv@Hosea:13:1 @ When E'phraim spoke, men trembled; he was exalted in Israel; but he incurred guilt through Ba'al and died.

rsv@Hosea:13:4 @ I am the LORD your God from the land of Egypt; you know no God but me, and besides me there is no savior.

rsv@Hosea:13:7 @ So I will be to them like a lion, like a leopard I will lurk beside the way.

rsv@Hosea:13:8 @ I will fall upon them like a bear robbed of her cubs, I will tear open their breast, and there I will devour them like a lion, as a wild beast would rend them.

rsv@Hosea:13:10 @ Where now is your king, to save you; where are all your princes, to defend you--those of whom you said, "Give me a king and princes"?

rsv@Hosea:13:14 @ Shall I ransom them from the power of Sheol? Shall I redeem them from Death? O Death, where are your plagues? O Sheol, where is your destruction? Compassion is hid from my eyes.

rsv@Hosea:13:15 @ Though he may flourish as the reed plant, the east wind, the wind of the LORD, shall come, rising from the wilderness; and his fountain shall dry up, his spring shall be parched; it shall strip his treasury of every precious thing.

rsv@Hosea:14:2 @ Take with you words and return to the LORD; say to him, "Take away all iniquity; accept that which is good and we will render the fruit of our lips.

rsv@Hosea:14:3 @ Assyria shall not save us, we will not ride upon horses; and we will say no more, `Our God,' to the work of our hands. In thee the orphan finds mercy."

rsv@Hosea:14:4 @ I will heal their faithlessness; I will love them freely, for my anger has turned from them.

rsv@Hosea:14:7 @ They shall return and dwell beneath my shadow, they shall flourish as a garden; they shall blossom as the vine, their fragrance shall be like the wine of Lebanon.

rsv@Joel:1:19 @ Unto thee, O LORD, I cry. For fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and flame has burned all the trees of the field.

rsv@Joel:1:20 @ Even the wild beasts cry to thee because the water brooks are dried up, and fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.

rsv@Joel:2:3 @ Fire devours before them, and behind them a flame burns. The land is like the garden of Eden before them, but after them a desolate wilderness, and nothing escapes them.

rsv@Zechariah:14:16 @ Then every one that survives of all the nations that have come against Jerusalem shall go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of booths.

rsv@Malachi:1:5 @ Your own eyes shall see this, and you shall say, "Great is the LORD, beyond the border of Israel!"

rsv@Malachi:1:8 @ When you offer blind animals in sacrifice, is that no evil? And when you offer those that are lame or sick, is that no evil? Present that to your governor; will he be pleased with you or show you favor? says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:1:9 @ And now entreat the favor of God, that he may be gracious to us. With such a gift from your hand, will he show favor to any of you? says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:1:10 @ Oh, that there were one among you who would shut the doors, that you might not kindle fire upon my altar in vain! I have no pleasure in you, says the LORD of hosts, and I will not accept an offering from your hand.

rsv@Malachi:1:11 @ For from the rising of the sun to its setting my name is great among the nations, and in every place incense is offered to my name, and a pure offering; for my name is great among the nations, says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:1:13 @ `What a weariness this is,' you say, and you sniff at me, says the LORD of hosts. You bring what has been taken by violence or is lame or sick, and this you bring as your offering! Shall I accept that from your hand? says the LORD.

rsv@Malachi:1:14 @ Cursed be the cheat who has a male in his flock, and vows it, and yet sacrifices to the Lord what is blemished; for I am a great King, says the LORD of hosts, and my name is feared among the nations.

rsv@Malachi:2:2 @ If you will not listen, if you will not lay it to heart to give glory to my name, says the LORD of hosts, then I will send the curse upon you and I will curse your blessings; indeed I have already cursed them, because you do not lay it to heart.

rsv@Malachi:2:3 @ Behold, I will rebuke your offspring, and spread dung upon your faces, the dung of your offerings, and I will put you out of my presence.

rsv@Malachi:2:6 @ True instruction was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and he turned many from iniquity.

rsv@Malachi:2:8 @ But you have turned aside from the way; you have caused many to stumble by your instruction; you have corrupted the covenant of Levi, says the LORD of hosts,

rsv@Malachi:2:9 @ and so I make you despised and abased before all the people, inasmuch as you have not kept my ways but have shown partiality in your instruction."

rsv@Malachi:2:10 @ Have we not all one father? Has not one God created us? Why then are we faithless to one another, profaning the covenant of our fathers?

rsv@Malachi:2:13 @ And this again you do. You cover the LORD's altar with tears, with weeping and groaning because he no longer regards the offering or accepts it with favor at your hand.

rsv@Malachi:2:14 @ You ask, "Why does he not?" Because the LORD was witness to the covenant between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant.

rsv@Malachi:2:15 @ Has not the one God made and sustained for us the spirit of life? And what does he desire? Godly offspring. So take heed to yourselves, and let none be faithless to the wife of his youth.

rsv@Malachi:2:16 @ "For I hate divorce, says the LORD the God of Israel, and covering one's garment with violence, says the LORD of hosts. So take heed to yourselves and do not be faithless."

rsv@Malachi:2:17 @ You have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet you say, "How have we wearied him?" By saying, "Every one who does evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delights in them." Or by asking, "Where is the God of justice?"

rsv@Malachi:3:2 @ But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? "For he is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap;

rsv@Malachi:3:3 @ he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, till they present right offerings to the LORD.

rsv@Malachi:3:5 @ "Then I will draw near to you for judgment; I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow and the orphan, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:3:7 @ From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from my statutes and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you, says the LORD of hosts. But you say, `How shall we return?'

rsv@Malachi:3:8 @ Will man rob God? Yet you are robbing me. But you say, `How are we robbing thee?' In your tithes and offerings.

rsv@Malachi:3:9 @ You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing me; the whole nation of you.

rsv@Malachi:3:10 @ Bring the full tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house; and thereby put me to the test, says the LORD of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you an overflowing blessing.

rsv@Malachi:3:11 @ I will rebuke the devourer for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of your soil; and your vine in the field shall not fail to bear, says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:3:13 @ "Your words have been stout against me, says the LORD. Yet you say, `How have we spoken against thee?'

rsv@Malachi:3:14 @ You have said, `It is vain to serve God. What is the good of our keeping his charge or of walking as in mourning before the LORD of hosts?

rsv@Malachi:4:1 @ "For behold, the day comes, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble; the day that comes shall burn them up, says the LORD of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.

rsv@Malachi:4:3 @ And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, on the day when I act, says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:4:6 @ And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land with a curse."
