bbe@Genesis:1:14 @And God said, Let there be lights in the arch of heaven, for a division between the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for marking the changes of the year, and for days and for years:

bbe@Genesis:2:5 @In the day when the Lord God made earth and heaven there were no plants of the field on the earth, and no grass had come up: for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to do work on the land.

bbe@Genesis:3:8 @And there came to them the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the evening wind: and the man and his wife went to a secret place among the trees of the garden, away from the eyes of the Lord God.

bbe@Genesis:3:17 @And to Adam he said, Because you gave ear to the voice of your wife and took of the fruit of the tree which I said you were not to take, the earth is cursed on your account; in pain you will get your food from it all your life.

bbe@Genesis:6:1 @And after a time, when men were increasing on the earth, and had daughters,

bbe@Genesis:6:2 @The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took wives for themselves from those who were pleasing to them.

bbe@Genesis:6:3 @And the Lord said, My spirit will not be in man for ever, for he is only flesh; so the days of his life will be a hundred and twenty years.

bbe@Genesis:6:5 @And the Lord saw that the sin of man was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts of his heart were evil.

bbe@Genesis:6:16 @You are to put a window in the ark, a cubit from the roof, and a door in the side of it, and you are to make it with a lower and second and third floors.

bbe@Genesis:7:9 @In twos, male and female, they went into the ark with Noah, as God had said.

bbe@Genesis:7:11 @In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep came bursting through, and the windows of heaven were open;

bbe@Genesis:7:13 @On the same day Noah, with Shem, Ham, and Japheth, his sons, and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark;

bbe@Genesis:7:15 @They went with Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh in which is the breath of life.

bbe@Genesis:7:16 @Male and female of all flesh went in, as God had said, and the ark was shut by the Lord

bbe@Genesis:7:17 @And for forty days the waters were over all the earth; and the waters were increased so that the ark was lifted up high over the earth.

bbe@Genesis:7:18 @And the waters overcame everything and were increased greatly on the earth, and the ark was resting on the face of the waters.

bbe@Genesis:7:19 @And the waters overcame everything on the earth; and all the mountains under heaven were covered.

bbe@Genesis:7:20 @The waters went fifteen cubits higher, till all the mountains were covered.

bbe@Genesis:7:21 @And destruction came on every living thing moving on the earth, birds and cattle and beasts and everything which went on the earth, and every man.

bbe@Genesis:7:23 @Every living thing on the face of all the earth, man and cattle and things moving on the face of the earth, and birds of the air, came to destruction: only Noah and those who were with him in the ark, were kept from death.

bbe@Genesis:7:24 @And the waters were over the earth a hundred and fifty days.

bbe@Genesis:8:1 @And God kept Noah in mind, and all the living things and the cattle which were with him in the ark: and God sent a wind over the earth, and the waters went down.

bbe@Genesis:8:2 @And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were shut, and the rain from heaven was stopped.

bbe@Genesis:8:3 @And the waters went slowly back from the earth, and at the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters were lower.

bbe@Genesis:8:5 @And still the waters went on falling, till on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen.

bbe@Genesis:8:7 @Noah sent out a raven, which went this way and that till the waters were gone from the earth.

bbe@Genesis:8:9 @But the dove saw no resting-place for her foot, and came back to the ark, for the waters were still over all the earth; and he put out his hand, and took her into the ark.

bbe@Genesis:8:13 @And in the six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters were dry on the earth: and Noah took the cover off the ark and saw that the face of the earth was dry.

bbe@Genesis:8:14 @And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.

bbe@Genesis:8:18 @And Noah went out with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives;

bbe@Genesis:8:19 @And every beast and bird and every living thing of every sort which goes on the earth, went out of the ark.

bbe@Genesis:8:21 @And when the sweet smell came up to the Lord, he said in his heart, I will not again put a curse on the earth because of man, for the thoughts of man's heart are evil from his earliest days; never again will I send destruction on all living things as I have done.

bbe@Genesis:9:12 @And God said, This is the sign of the agreement which I make between me and you and every living thing with you, for all future generations:

bbe@Genesis:9:13 @I will put my bow in the cloud and it will be for a sign of the agreement between me and the earth.

bbe@Genesis:9:15 @And I will keep in mind the agreement between me and you and every living thing; and never again will there be a great flow of waters causing destruction to all flesh.

bbe@Genesis:9:16 @And the bow will be in the cloud, and looking on it, I will keep in mind the eternal agreement between God and every living thing on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:9:17 @And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the agreement which I have made between me and all flesh on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:9:18 @And the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:9:19 @These three were the sons of Noah and from them all the earth was peopled.

bbe@Genesis:9:23 @And Shem and Japheth took a robe, and putting it on their backs went in with their faces turned away, and put it over their father so that they might not see him unclothed.

bbe@Genesis:9:28 @And Noah went on living three hundred and fifty years after the great flow of waters;

bbe@Genesis:9:29 @all the years of his life were nine hundred and fifty: and he came to his end.

bbe@Genesis:10:11 @From that land he went out into Assyria, building Nineveh with its wide streets and Calah,

bbe@Genesis:10:12 @And Resen between Nineveh and Calah, which is a very great town.

bbe@Genesis:10:18 @And the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite; after that the families of the Canaanites went far and wide in all directions;

bbe@Genesis:10:29 @And Ophir and Havilah and Jobab; all these were the sons of Joktan.

bbe@Genesis:11:3 @And they said one to another, Come, let us make bricks, burning them well. And they had bricks for stone, putting them together with sticky earth.

bbe@Genesis:11:4 @And they said, Come, let us make a town, and a tower whose top will go up as high as heaven; and let us make a great name for ourselves, so that we may not be wanderers over the face of the earth.

bbe@Genesis:11:5 @And the Lord came down to see the town and the tower which the children of men were building.

bbe@Genesis:11:11 @And after the birth of Arpachshad, Shem went on living for five hundred years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:13 @And after the birth of Shelah, Arpachshad went on living for four hundred and three years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:15 @And after the birth of Eber, Shelah went on living for four hundred and three years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:17 @And after the birth of Peleg, Eber went on living for four hundred and thirty years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:19 @And after the birth of Reu, Peleg went on living for two hundred and nine years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:21 @And after the birth of Serug, Reu went on living for two hundred and seven years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:23 @And after the birth of Nahor, Serug went on living for two hundred years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:24 @And Nahor was twenty-nine years old when he became the father of Terah:

bbe@Genesis:11:25 @And after the birth of Terah, Nahor went on living for a hundred and nineteen years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:31 @And Terah took Abram, his son, and Lot, the son of Haran, and Sarai, his daughter-in-law, the wife of his son Abram and they went out from Ur of the Chaldees, to go to the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran, and were there for some time.

bbe@Genesis:11:32 @And all the years of Terah's life were two hundred and five: and Terah came to his end in Haran.

bbe@Genesis:12:4 @So Abram went as the Lord had said to him, and Lot went with him: Abram was seventy-five years old when he went away from Haran.

bbe@Genesis:12:5 @And Abram took Sarai, his wife, and Lot, his brother's son, and all their goods and the servants which they had got in Haran, and they went out to go to the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:12:6 @And Abram went through the land till he came to Shechem, to the holy tree of Moreh. At that time, the Canaanites were still living in the land.

bbe@Genesis:12:8 @And moving on from there to the mountain on the east of Beth-el, he put up his tent, having Beth-el on the west and Ai on the east: and there he made an altar and gave worship to the name of the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:12:9 @And he went on, journeying still to the South.

bbe@Genesis:12:10 @And because there was little food to be had in that land, he went down into Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:12:13 @Say, then, that you are my sister, and so it will be well with me because of you, and my life will be kept safe on your account

bbe@Genesis:13:1 @And Abram went up out of Egypt with his wife and all he had, and Lot with him, and they came in to the South.

bbe@Genesis:13:2 @Now Abram had great wealth of cattle and silver and gold.

bbe@Genesis:13:3 @And travelling on from the South, he came to Beth-el, to the place where his tent had been before, between Beth-el and Ai;

bbe@Genesis:13:5 @And Lot, who went with him, had flocks and herds and tents;

bbe@Genesis:13:7 @And there was an argument between the keepers of Abram's cattle and the keepers of Lot's cattle: at that time the Canaanites and Perizzites were still living in the land.

bbe@Genesis:13:8 @Then Abram said to Lot, Let there be no argument between me and you, and between my herdmen and your herdmen, for we are brothers.

bbe@Genesis:13:10 @And Lot, lifting up his eyes and looking an the valley of Jordan, saw that it was well watered everywhere, before the Lord had sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah; it was like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, on the way to Zoar.

bbe@Genesis:13:11 @So Lot took for himself all the valley of Jordan, and went to the east, and they were parted from one another.

bbe@Genesis:13:12 @Abram went on living in the land of Canaan, and Lot went to the lowland towns, moving his tent as far as Sodom.

bbe@Genesis:13:13 @Now the men of Sodom were evil, and great sinners before the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:13:14 @And the Lord had said to Abram, after Lot was parted from him, From this place where you are take a look to the north and to the south, to the east and to the west:

bbe@Genesis:14:4 @For twelve years they were under the rule of Chedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year they put off his control.

bbe@Genesis:14:5 @And in the fourteenth year, Chedorlaomer and the kings who were on his side, overcame the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh-kiriathaim,

bbe@Genesis:14:8 @And the king of Sodom with the king of Gomorrah and the king of Admah and the king of Zeboiim and the king of Bela (that is Zoar), went out, and put their forces in position in the valley of Siddim,

bbe@Genesis:14:10 @Now the valley of Siddim was full of holes of sticky earth; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah were put to flight and came to their end there, but the rest got away to the mountain.

bbe@Genesis:14:11 @And the four kings took all the goods and food from Sodom and Gomorrah and went on their way.

bbe@Genesis:14:13 @And one who had got away from the fight came and gave word of it to Abram the Hebrew, who was living by the holy tree of Mamre, the Amorite, the brother of Eshcol and Aner, who were friends of Abram.

bbe@Genesis:14:14 @And Abram, hearing that his brother's son had been made a prisoner, took a band of his trained men, three hundred and eighteen of them, sons of his house, and went after them as far as Dan.

bbe@Genesis:14:20 @And let the Most High God be praised, who has given into your hands those who were against you. Then Abram gave him a tenth of all the goods he had taken.

bbe@Genesis:14:23 @That I will not take so much as a thread or the cord of a shoe of yours; so that you may not say, I have given wealth to Abram:

bbe@Genesis:14:24 @Give me nothing but the food which the fighting-men who went with me have had; but let Aner and Eshcol and Mamre have their part of the goods.

bbe@Genesis:15:2 @And Abram said, What will you give me? for I have no child and this Eliezer of Damascus will have all my wealth after me.

bbe@Genesis:15:14 @But I will be the judge of that nation whose servants they are, and they will come out from among them with great wealth.

bbe@Genesis:15:17 @Then when the sun went down and it was dark, he saw a smoking fire and a flaming light which went between the parts of the bodies.

bbe@Genesis:16:4 @And he went in to Hagar and she became with child, and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for her master's wife.

bbe@Genesis:16:5 @And Sarai said to Abram, May my wrong be on you: I gave you my servant for your wife and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for me: may the Lord be judge between you and me.

bbe@Genesis:16:6 @And Abram said, The woman is in your power; do with her whatever seems good to you. And Sarai was cruel to her, so that she went running away from her.

bbe@Genesis:16:11 @And the angel of the Lord said, See, you are with child and will give birth to a son, to whom you will give the name Ishmael, because the ears of the Lord were open to your sorrow.

bbe@Genesis:16:14 @So that fountain was named, Fountain of Life and Vision: it is between Kadesh and Bered.

bbe@Genesis:17:2 @And I will make an agreement between you and me, and your offspring will be greatly increased.

bbe@Genesis:17:3 @And Abram went down on his face on the earth, and the Lord God went on talking with him, and said,

bbe@Genesis:17:7 @And I will make between me and you and your seed after you through all generations, an eternal agreement to be a God to you and to your seed after you.

bbe@Genesis:17:11 @In the flesh of your private parts you are to undergo it, as a mark of the agreement between me and you.

bbe@Genesis:17:17 @Then Abraham went down on his face, and laughing, said in his heart, May a man a hundred years old have a child? will Sarah, at ninety years old, give birth?

bbe@Genesis:17:20 @As for Ishmael, I have given ear to your prayer: truly I have given him my blessing and I will make him fertile and give him great increase; he will be the father of twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation.

bbe@Genesis:17:22 @And having said these words, God went up from Abraham.

bbe@Genesis:17:24 @Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he underwent circumcision.

bbe@Genesis:17:25 @And Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he underwent circumcision.

bbe@Genesis:17:26 @Abraham and Ishmael, his son, underwent circumcision on that very day.

bbe@Genesis:17:27 @And all the men of his house, those whose birth had taken place in the house and those whom he had got for money from men of other lands, underwent circumcision with him.

bbe@Genesis:18:2 @And lifting up his eyes, he saw three men before him; and seeing them, he went quickly to them from the door of the tent, and went down on his face to the earth;

bbe@Genesis:18:6 @Then Abraham went quickly into the tent, and said to Sarah, Get three measures of meal straight away and make cakes.

bbe@Genesis:18:11 @Now Abraham and Sarah were very old, and Sarah was past the time for giving birth.

bbe@Genesis:18:15 @Then Sarah said, I was not laughing; for she was full of fear. And he said, No, but you were laughing.

bbe@Genesis:18:16 @And the men went on from there in the direction of Sodom; and Abraham went with them on their way.

bbe@Genesis:18:22 @And the men, turning from that place, went on to Sodom: but Abraham was still waiting before the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:18:27 @And Abraham answering said, Truly, I who am only dust, have undertaken to put my thoughts before the Lord:

bbe@Genesis:18:31 @And he said, See now, I have undertaken to put my thoughts before the Lord: what if there are twenty there? And he said, I will have mercy because of the twenty.

bbe@Genesis:18:33 @And the Lord went on his way when his talk with Abraham was ended, and Abraham went back to his place.

bbe@Genesis:19:2 @And he said, My masters, come now into your servant's house and take your rest there for the night, and let your feet be washed; and early in the morning you may go on your way. And they said, Not so, but we will take our night's rest in the street.

bbe@Genesis:19:3 @But he made his request more strongly, so they went with him into his house; and he got food ready for them, and made unleavened bread, of which they took.

bbe@Genesis:19:5 @And crying out to Lot, they said, Where are the men who came to your house this night? Send them out to us, so that we may take our pleasure with them.

bbe@Genesis:19:6 @And Lot went out to them in the doorway, shutting the door after him.

bbe@Genesis:19:9 @And they said, Give way there. This one man, they said, came here from a strange country, and will he now be our judge? now we will do worse to you than to them; and pushing violently against Lot, they came near to get the door broken in.

bbe@Genesis:19:11 @But the men who were outside the door they made blind, all of them, small and great, so that they were tired out with looking for the door.

bbe@Genesis:19:13 @For we are about to send destruction on this place, because a great outcry against them has come to the ears of the Lord; and the Lord has sent us to put an end to the town.

bbe@Genesis:19:14 @And Lot went out and said to his sons-in-law, who were married to his daughters, Come, let us go out of this place, for the Lord is about to send destruction on the town. But his sons-in-law did not take him seriously.

bbe@Genesis:19:15 @And when morning came, the angels did all in their power to make Lot go, saying, Get up quickly and take your wife and your two daughters who are here, and go, for fear that you come to destruction in the punishment of the town.

bbe@Genesis:19:27 @And Abraham got up early in the morning and went to the place where he had been talking with the Lord:

bbe@Genesis:19:30 @Then Lot went up out of Zoar to the mountain, and was living there with his two daughters, for fear kept him from living in Zoar: and he and his daughters made their living-place in a hole in the rock.

bbe@Genesis:19:32 @Come, let us give our father much wine, and we will go into his bed, so that we may have offspring by our father,

bbe@Genesis:19:33 @And that night they made their father take much wine; and the older daughter went into his bed; and he had no knowledge of when she went in or when she went away.

bbe@Genesis:19:34 @And on the day after, the older daughter said to the younger, Last night I was with my father; let us make him take much wine this night again, and do you go to him, so that we may have offspring by our father.

bbe@Genesis:19:35 @And that night again they made their father take much wine; and the younger daughter went into his bed; and he had no knowledge of when she went in or when she went away.

bbe@Genesis:19:36 @And so the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.

bbe@Genesis:20:1 @And Abraham went on his way from there to the land of the South, and was living between Kadesh and Shur, in Gerar.

bbe@Genesis:20:8 @So Abimelech got up early in the morning and sent for all his servants and gave them word of these things, and they were full of fear.

bbe@Genesis:20:13 @And when God sent me wandering from my father's house, I said to her, Let this be the sign of your love for me; wherever we go, say of me, He is my brother.

bbe@Genesis:20:17 @Then Abraham made prayer to God, and God made Abimelech well again, and his wife and his women-servants, so that they had children.

bbe@Genesis:21:14 @And early in the morning Abraham got up, and gave Hagar some bread and a water-skin, and put the boy on her back, and sent her away: and she went, wandering in the waste land of Beer-sheba

bbe@Genesis:21:16 @And she went some distance away, about an arrow flight, and seating herself on the earth, she gave way to bitter weeping, saying, Let me not see the death of my child.

bbe@Genesis:21:17 @And the boy's cry came to the ears of God; and the angel of God said to Hagar from heaven, Hagar, why are you weeping? have no fear, for the child's cry has come to the ears of God.

bbe@Genesis:21:32 @So they made an agreement at Beer-sheba, and Abimelech and Phicol, the captain of his army, went back to the land of the Philistines.

bbe@Genesis:21:34 @And Abraham went on living in the land of the Philistines as in a strange country.

bbe@Genesis:22:3 @And Abraham got up early in the morning, and made ready his ass, and took with him two of his young men and Isaac, his son, and after the wood for the burned offering had been cut, he went on his way to the place of which God had given him word.

bbe@Genesis:22:6 @And Abraham put the wood for the burned offering on his son's back, and he himself took the fire and the knife in his hand, and the two of them went on together.

bbe@Genesis:22:7 @Then Isaac said to Abraham, My father; and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, We have wood and fire here, but where is the lamb for the burned offering?

bbe@Genesis:22:8 @And Abraham said, God himself will give the lamb for the burned offering: so they went on together.

bbe@Genesis:22:14 @And Abraham gave that place the name Yahweh-yireh: as it is said to this day, In the mountain the Lord is seen.

bbe@Genesis:22:19 @Then Abraham went back to his young men and they went together to Beer-sheba, the place where Abraham was living.

bbe@Genesis:22:23 @Bethuel was the father of Rebekah: these eight were the children of Milcah and Nahor, Abraham's brother.

bbe@Genesis:23:1 @Now the years of Sarah's life were a hundred and twenty-seven.

bbe@Genesis:23:2 @And Sarah's death took place in Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron, in the land of Canaan: and Abraham went into his house, weeping and sorrowing for Sarah.

bbe@Genesis:23:5 @And in answer the children of Heth said to Abraham,

bbe@Genesis:23:10 @Now Ephron was seated among the children of Heth: and Ephron the Hittite gave Abraham his answer in the hearing of the children of Heth, and of all those who came into his town, saying,

bbe@Genesis:23:12 @And Abraham went down on his face before the people of the land.

bbe@Genesis:23:15 @My lord, give ear to me: the value of the land is four hundred shekels; what is that between me and you? so put your dead to rest there.

bbe@Genesis:23:20 @And the field and the hollow rock were handed over to Abraham as his property by the children of Heth.

bbe@Genesis:24:10 @And the servant took ten of his master's camels, and all sorts of good things of his master's, and went to Mesopotamia, to the town of Nahor.

bbe@Genesis:24:12 @And he said, O Lord, the God of my master Abraham, let me do well in what I have undertaken this day, and give your mercy to my master Abraham.

bbe@Genesis:24:14 @Now, may the girl to whom I say, Let down your vessel and give me a drink, and who says in answer, Here is a drink for you and let me give water to your camels: may she be the one marked out by you for your servant Isaac: so may I be certain that you have been good to my master Abraham.

bbe@Genesis:24:15 @And even before his words were ended, Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, who was the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, came out with her water-vessel on her arm.

bbe@Genesis:24:16 @She was a very beautiful girl, a virgin, who had never been touched by a man: and she went down to the spring to get water in her vessel.

bbe@Genesis:24:20 @And after putting the water from her vessel into the animals' drinking-place, she went quickly back to the spring and got water for all the camels

bbe@Genesis:24:22 @And when the camels had had enough, the man took a gold nose-ring, half a shekel in weight, and two ornaments for her arms of ten shekels weight of gold;

bbe@Genesis:24:25 @And she said, We have a great store of dry grass and cattle-food, and there is room for you.

bbe@Genesis:24:28 @So the girl went running and took the news of these things to her mother's house

bbe@Genesis:24:30 @And when he saw the nose-ring and the ornaments on his sister's hands, and when she gave him word of what the man had said to her, then he went out to the man who was waiting with the camels by the water-spring.

bbe@Genesis:24:32 @Then the man came into the house, and Laban took their cords off the camels and gave them dry grass and food, and he gave to him and the men who were with him water for washing their feet.

bbe@Genesis:24:45 @And even while I was saying this to myself, Rebekah came out with her vessel on her arm; and she went down to the spring to get water; and I said to her, Give me a drink.

bbe@Genesis:24:50 @Then Laban and Bethuel said in answer, This is the Lord's doing: it is not for us to say Yes or No to you.

bbe@Genesis:24:52 @And at these words, Abraham's servant went down on his face and gave praise to the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:24:53 @Then he took jewels of silver and jewels of gold and fair robes and gave them to Rebekah: and he gave things of value to her mother and her brother.

bbe@Genesis:24:54 @Then he and the men who were with him had food and drink, and took their rest there that night; and in the morning he got up, and said, Let me now go back to my master.

bbe@Genesis:24:55 @But her brother and her mother said, Let the girl be with us a week or ten days, and then she may go.

bbe@Genesis:24:57 @And they said, We will send for the girl, and let her make the decision.

bbe@Genesis:24:61 @So Rebekah and her servant-women went with the man, seated on the camels; and so the servant took Rebekah and went on his way.

bbe@Genesis:24:63 @And when the evening was near, he went wandering out into the fields, and lifting up his eyes he saw camels coming.

bbe@Genesis:25:4 @And from Midian came Ephah and Epher and Hanoch and Abida and Eldaah. All these were the offspring of Keturah.

bbe@Genesis:25:7 @Now the years of Abraham's life were a hundred and seventy-five.

bbe@Genesis:25:16 @These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names in their towns and their tent-circles; twelve chiefs with their peoples.

bbe@Genesis:25:17 @And the years of Ishmael's life were a hundred and thirty-seven: and he came to his end, and was put to rest with his people.

bbe@Genesis:25:22 @And the children were fighting together inside her, and she said, If it is to be so, why am I like this? So she went to put her question to the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:25:24 @And when the time came for her to give birth, there were two children in her body.

bbe@Genesis:25:34 @Then Jacob gave him bread and soup; and he took food and drink and went away, caring little for his birthright.

bbe@Genesis:26:1 @Then came a time of great need in the land, like that which had been before in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Philistines, at Gerar.

bbe@Genesis:26:6 @So Isaac went on living in Gerar;

bbe@Genesis:26:10 @Then Abimelech said, What have you done to us? one of the people might well have had connection with your wife, and the sin would have been ours.

bbe@Genesis:26:13 @And his wealth became very great, increasing more and more;

bbe@Genesis:26:14 @For he had great wealth of flocks and herds and great numbers of servants; so that the Philistines were full of envy.

bbe@Genesis:26:16 @And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go away from us, for you are stronger than we are.

bbe@Genesis:26:17 @So Isaac went away from there, and put up his tents in the valley of Gerar, making his living-place there.

bbe@Genesis:26:22 @Then he went away from there, and made another water-hole, about which there was no fighting: so he gave it the name of Rehoboth, for he said, Now the Lord has made room for us, and we will have fruit in this land.

bbe@Genesis:26:23 @And from there he went on to Beer-sheba.

bbe@Genesis:26:28 @And they said, We saw clearly that the Lord was with you: so we said, Let there be an oath between us and you, and let us make an agreement with you;

bbe@Genesis:26:29 @That you will do us no damage, even as we put no hand on you, and did you nothing but good, and sent you away in peace: and now the blessing of the Lord is on you.

bbe@Genesis:26:31 @And early in the morning they took an oath one to the other: then Isaac sent them away and they went on their way in peace.

bbe@Genesis:26:32 @And that day Isaac's servants came to him and gave him word of the water-hole which they had made, and said to him, We have come to water.

bbe@Genesis:27:5 @Now Isaac's words to his son were said in Rebekah's hearing. Then Esau went out to get the meat.

bbe@Genesis:27:14 @So he went and got them and took them to his mother: and she made a meal to his father's taste.

bbe@Genesis:27:15 @And Rebekah took the fair robes of her oldest son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob, her younger son:

bbe@Genesis:27:22 @And Jacob went near his father Isaac: and he put his hands on him; and he said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.

bbe@Genesis:27:23 @And he did not make out who he was, because his hands were covered with hair like his brother Esau's hands: so he gave him a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:37 @And Isaac answering said, But I have made him your master, and have given him all his brothers for servants; I have made him strong with grain and wine: what then am I to do for you, my son?

bbe@Genesis:27:38 @And Esau said to his father, Is that the only blessing you have, my father? give a blessing to me, even me! And Esau was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:27:39 @Then Isaac his father made answer and said to him, Far from the fertile places of the earth, and far from the dew of heaven on high will your living-place be:

bbe@Genesis:27:40 @By your sword will you get your living and you will be your brother's servant; but when your power is increased his yoke will be broken from off your neck.

bbe@Genesis:27:41 @So Esau was full of hate for Jacob because of his father's blessing; and he said in his heart, The days of weeping for my father are near; then I will put my brother Jacob to death.

bbe@Genesis:27:46 @Then Rebekah said to Isaac, My life is a weariness to me because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob takes a wife from among the daughters of Heth, such as these, the women of this land, of what use will my life be to me?

bbe@Genesis:28:5 @So Isaac sent Jacob away: and he went to Paddan-aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramaean, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

bbe@Genesis:28:9 @So Esau went to Ishmael and took Mahalath, the daughter of Abraham's son Ishmael, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife in addition to the wives he had.

bbe@Genesis:28:10 @So Jacob went out from Beer-sheba to go to Haran.

bbe@Genesis:28:11 @And coming to a certain place, he made it his resting-place for the night, for the sun had gone down; and he took one of the stones which were there, and putting it under his head he went to sleep in that place.

bbe@Genesis:28:12 @And he had a dream, and in his dream he saw steps stretching from earth to heaven, and the angels of God were going up and down on them.

bbe@Genesis:28:14 @Your seed will be like the dust of the earth, covering all the land to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south: you and your seed will be a name of blessing to all the families of the earth.

bbe@Genesis:29:1 @Then Jacob went on his journey till he came to the land of the children of the East.

bbe@Genesis:29:5 @And he said to them, Have you any knowledge of Laban, the son of Nahor? And they said, We have.

bbe@Genesis:29:6 @And he said to them, Is he well? And they said, He is well, and here is Rachel his daughter coming with the sheep.

bbe@Genesis:29:8 @And they said, We are not able to do so till all the flocks have come together and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the water-hole; then we will get water for the sheep.

bbe@Genesis:29:11 @And weeping for joy, Jacob gave Rachel a kiss.

bbe@Genesis:29:12 @And Rachel, hearing from Jacob that he was her father's relation and that he was the son of Rebekah, went running to give her father news of it.

bbe@Genesis:29:17 @And Leah's eyes were clouded, but Rachel was fair in face and form

bbe@Genesis:29:23 @And in the evening he took Leah, his daughter, and gave her to him, and he went in to her.

bbe@Genesis:29:26 @And Laban said, In our country we do not let the younger daughter be married before the older.

bbe@Genesis:29:27 @Let the week of the bride-feast come to its end and then we will give you the other in addition, if you will be my servant for another seven years.

bbe@Genesis:29:28 @And Jacob did so; and when the week was ended, Laban gave him his daughter Rachel for his wife.

bbe@Genesis:29:30 @Then Jacob took Rachel as his wife, and his love for her was greater than his love for Leah; and he went on working for Laban for another seven years.

bbe@Genesis:30:4 @So she gave him her servant Bilhah as a wife, and Jacob went in to her.

bbe@Genesis:30:11 @And Leah said, It has gone well for me: and she gave him the name Gad.

bbe@Genesis:30:16 @In the evening, when Jacob came in from the field, Leah went out to him and said, Tonight you are to come to me, for I have given my son's love-fruits as a price for you. And he went in to her that night.

bbe@Genesis:30:29 @Then Jacob said, You have seen what I have done for you, and how your cattle have done well under my care.

bbe@Genesis:30:35 @So that day he took all the he-goats which were banded or coloured, and all the she-goats which were marked or coloured or had white marks, and all the black sheep, and gave them into the care of his sons;

bbe@Genesis:30:39 @And because of this, the flock gave birth to young which were marked with bands of colour.

bbe@Genesis:30:42 @But when the flocks were feeble, he did not put the sticks before them; so that the feebler flocks were Laban's and the stronger were Jacob's.

bbe@Genesis:30:43 @So Jacob's wealth was greatly increased; he had great flocks and women-servants and men-servants and camels and asses.

bbe@Genesis:31:1 @Now it came to the ears of Jacob that Laban's sons were saying, Jacob has taken away all our father's property, and in this way he has got all this wealth.

bbe@Genesis:31:6 @And you have seen how I have done all in my power for your father,

bbe@Genesis:31:10 @And at the time when the flock were with young, I saw in a dream that all the he-goats which were joined with the she-goats were banded and marked and coloured.

bbe@Genesis:31:14 @Then Rachel and Leah said to him in answer, What part or heritage is there for us in our father's house?

bbe@Genesis:31:15 @Are we not as people from a strange country to him? for he took a price for us and now it is all used up.

bbe@Genesis:31:16 @For the wealth which God has taken from him is ours and our children's; so now, whatever God has said to you, do.

bbe@Genesis:31:20 @And Jacob went away secretly, without giving news of his flight to Laban the Aramaean.

bbe@Genesis:31:21 @So he went away with all he had, and went across the River in the direction of the hill-country of Gilead

bbe@Genesis:31:23 @And taking the men of his family with him, he went after him for seven days and overtook him in the hill-country of Gilead.

bbe@Genesis:31:29 @It is in my power to do you damage: but the God of your father came to me this night, saying, Take care that you say nothing good or bad to Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:31:31 @And Jacob, in answer, said to Laban, My fear was that you might take your daughters from me by force.

bbe@Genesis:31:33 @So Laban went into Jacob's tent and into Leah's tent, and into the tents of the two servant-women, but they were not there; and he came out of Leah's tent and went into Rachel's.

bbe@Genesis:31:37 @Now that you have made search through all my goods, what have you seen which is yours? Make it clear now before my people and your people, so that they may be judges between us.

bbe@Genesis:31:38 @These twenty years I have been with you; your sheep and your goats have had young without loss, not one of your he-goats have I taken for food.

bbe@Genesis:31:40 @This was my condition, wasted by heat in the day and by the bitter cold at night; and sleep went from my eyes.

bbe@Genesis:31:41 @These twenty years I have been in your house; I was your servant for fourteen years because of your daughters, and for six years I kept your flock, and ten times was my payment changed.

bbe@Genesis:31:43 @Then Laban, answering, said, These women are my daughters and these children my children, the flocks and all you see are mine: what now may I do for my daughters and for their children?

bbe@Genesis:31:44 @Come, let us make an agreement, you and I; and let it be for a witness between us.

bbe@Genesis:31:48 @And Laban said, These stones are a witness between you and me today. For this reason its name was Galeed,

bbe@Genesis:31:49 @And Mizpah, for he said, May the Lord keep watch on us when we are unable to see one another's doings.

bbe@Genesis:31:50 @If you are cruel to my daughters, or if you take other wives in addition to my daughters, then though no man is there to see, God will be the witness between us.

bbe@Genesis:31:51 @And Laban said, See these stones and this pillar which I have put between you and me;

bbe@Genesis:31:55 @And early in the morning Laban, after kissing and blessing his daughters, went on his way back to his country.

bbe@Genesis:32:6 @When the servants came back they said, We have seen your brother Esau and he is coming out to you, and four hundred men with him.

bbe@Genesis:32:10 @I am less than nothing in comparison with all your mercies and your faith to me your servant; for with only my stick in my hand I went across Jordan, and now I have become two armies.

bbe@Genesis:32:14 @Two hundred she-goats and twenty he-goats, two hundred females and twenty males from the sheep,

bbe@Genesis:32:15 @Thirty camels with their young ones, forty cows, ten oxen, twenty asses, and ten young asses.

bbe@Genesis:32:16 @These he gave to his servants, every herd by itself, and he said to his servants, Go on before me, and let there be a space between one herd and another.

bbe@Genesis:32:19 @And he gave the same orders to the second and the third and to all those who were with the herds, saying, This is what you are to say to Esau when you see him;

bbe@Genesis:32:21 @So the servants with the offerings went on in front, and he himself took his rest that night in the tents with his people.

bbe@Genesis:32:22 @And in the night he got up, and taking with him his two wives and the two servant-women and his eleven children, he went over the river Jabbok.

bbe@Genesis:32:31 @And while he was going past Peniel, the sun came up. And he went with unequal steps because of his damaged leg.

bbe@Genesis:33:1 @Then Jacob, lifting up his eyes, saw Esau coming with his four hundred men. So he made a division of the children between Leah and Rachel and the two women-servants.

bbe@Genesis:33:3 @And he himself, going before them, went down on his face to the earth seven times till he came near his brother.

bbe@Genesis:33:4 @Then Esau came running up to him, and folding him in his arms, gave him a kiss: and the two of them were overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:33:6 @Then the servants and their children came near, and went down on their faces.

bbe@Genesis:33:8 @And he said, What were all those herds which I saw on the way? And Jacob said, They were an offering so that I might have grace in my lord's eyes.

bbe@Genesis:33:16 @So Esau, turning back that day, went on his way to Seir.

bbe@Genesis:33:17 @And Jacob went on to Succoth, where he made a house for himself and put up tents for his cattle: for this reason the place was named Succoth.

bbe@Genesis:34:1 @Now Dinah, the daughter whom Leah had by Jacob, went out to see the women of that country.

bbe@Genesis:34:3 @Then his heart went out in love to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he said comforting words to her.

bbe@Genesis:34:5 @Now Jacob had word of what Shechem had done to his daughter; but his sons were in the fields with the cattle, and Jacob said nothing till they came.

bbe@Genesis:34:7 @Now the sons of Jacob came in from the fields when they had news of it, and they were wounded and very angry because of the shame he had done in Israel by having connection with Jacob's daughter; and they said, Such a thing is not to be done.

bbe@Genesis:34:12 @However great you make the bride-price and payment, I will give it; only let me have the girl for my wife.

bbe@Genesis:34:13 @But the sons of Jacob gave a false answer to Shechem and Hamor his father, because of what had been done to Dinah their sister.

bbe@Genesis:34:15 @But on this condition only will we come to an agreement with you: if every male among you becomes like us and undergoes circumcision;

bbe@Genesis:34:16 @Then we will give our daughters to you and take your daughters to us and go on living with you as one people.

bbe@Genesis:34:17 @But if you will not undergo circumcision as we say, then we will take our daughter and go.

bbe@Genesis:34:18 @And their words were pleasing to Hamor and his son Shechem.

bbe@Genesis:34:20 @Then Hamor and Shechem, his son, went to the meeting-place of their town, and said to the men of the town,

bbe@Genesis:34:24 @Then all the men of the town gave ear to the words of Hamor and Shechem his son; and every male in the town underwent circumcision.

bbe@Genesis:34:25 @But on the third day after, before the wounds were well, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their swords and came into the town by surprise and put all the males to death.

bbe@Genesis:34:26 @And Hamor and his son they put to death with the sword, and they took Dinah from Shechem's house and went away.

bbe@Genesis:34:27 @And the sons of Jacob came on them when they were wounded and made waste the town because of what had been done to their sister;

bbe@Genesis:34:29 @And all their wealth and all their little ones and their wives; everything in their houses they took and made them waste.

bbe@Genesis:34:30 @And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, You have made trouble for me and given me a bad name among the people of this country, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and because we are small in number they will come together against me and make war on me; and it will be the end of me and all my people.

bbe@Genesis:34:31 @But they said, Were we to let him make use of our sister as a loose woman?

bbe@Genesis:35:1 @And God said to Jacob, Go up now to Beth-el and make your living-place there: and put up an altar there to the God who came to you when you were in flight from your brother Esau.

bbe@Genesis:35:3 @And let us go up to Beth-el: and there I will make an altar to God, who gave me an answer in the day of my trouble, and was with me wherever I went.

bbe@Genesis:35:4 @Then they gave to Jacob all the strange gods which they had, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob put them away under the holy tree at Shechem.

bbe@Genesis:35:5 @So they went on their journey: and the fear of God was on the towns round about, so that they made no attack on the sons of Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:35:13 @Then God went up from him in the place where he had been talking with him.

bbe@Genesis:35:16 @So they went on from Beth-el; and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, the pains of birth came on Rachel and she had a hard time.

bbe@Genesis:35:18 @And in the hour when her life went from her (for death came to her), she gave the child the name Ben-oni: but his father gave him the name of Benjamin.

bbe@Genesis:35:21 @And Israel went journeying on and put up his tents on the other side of the tower of the flock.

bbe@Genesis:35:22 @Now while they were living in that country, Reuben had connection with Bilhah, his father's servant-woman: and Israel had news of it.

bbe@Genesis:35:23 @Now Jacob had twelve sons: the sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's first son, and Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Zebulun;

bbe@Genesis:36:2 @Esau's wives were women of Canaan: Adah, the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite,

bbe@Genesis:36:6 @Esau took his wives and his sons and his daughters, and all the people of his house, and his beasts and his cattle and all his goods which he had got together in the land of Canaan, and went into the land of Seir, away from his brother Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:36:7 @For their wealth was so great that the land was not wide enough for the two of them and all their cattle.

bbe@Genesis:36:11 @The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz.

bbe@Genesis:36:12 @And Eliphaz, the son of Esau, had connection with a woman named Timna, who gave birth to Amalek: all these were the children of Esau's wife Adah.

bbe@Genesis:36:13 @And these are the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah: they were the children of Esau's wife Basemath.

bbe@Genesis:36:15 @These were the chiefs among the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz, Esau's first son: Teman, Omar, Zepho, Kenaz,

bbe@Genesis:36:16 @Korah, Gatam, Amalek: all these were chiefs in the land of Edom, the offspring of Eliphaz, the seed of Adah.

bbe@Genesis:36:17 @And these are the sons of Esau's son Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, Mizzah: these were the chiefs of Reuel in the land of Edom, the children of Esau's wife Basemath.

bbe@Genesis:36:18 @And these are the sons of Esau's wife Oholibamah: Jeush, Jalam, and Korah: these were the chiefs who came from Esau's wife Oholibamah, daughter of Anah.

bbe@Genesis:36:19 @These were the sons of Esau (that is, Edom), and these were their chiefs.

bbe@Genesis:36:20 @These are the sons of Seir the Horite who were living in that country; Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,

bbe@Genesis:36:22 @The children of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; Lotan's sister was Timna.

bbe@Genesis:36:29 @These were the Horite chiefs: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,

bbe@Genesis:36:30 @Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. Such were the Horite chiefs in their order in the land of Seir.

bbe@Genesis:36:31 @And these are the kings who were ruling in the land of Edom before there was any king over the children of Israel.

bbe@Genesis:37:4 @And because his brothers saw that Joseph was dearer to his father than all the others, they were full of hate for him, and would not say a kind word to him.

bbe@Genesis:37:7 @We were in the field, getting the grain stems together, and my grain kept upright, and yours came round and went down on the earth before mine.

bbe@Genesis:37:11 @And his brothers were full of envy; but his father kept his words in mind.

bbe@Genesis:37:12 @Now his brothers went to keep watch over their father's flock in Shechem.

bbe@Genesis:37:14 @And he said to him, Go now, and see if your brothers are well and how the flock is; then come back and give me word. So he sent him out of the valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.

bbe@Genesis:37:17 @And the man said, They have gone away from here, for they said in my hearing, Let us go to Dothan. So Joseph went after them and came up with them at Dothan.

bbe@Genesis:37:20 @Let us now put him to death and put his body into one of these holes, and we will say, An evil beast has put him to death: then we will see what becomes of his dreams.

bbe@Genesis:37:28 @And some traders from Midian went by; so pulling Joseph up out of the hole, they gave him to the Ishmaelites for twenty bits of silver, and they took him to Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:37:30 @He went back to his brothers, and said, The child is gone; what am I to do?

bbe@Genesis:37:32 @And they took the coat to their father, and said, We came across this; is it your son's coat or not?

bbe@Genesis:37:34 @Then Jacob, giving signs of grief, put on haircloth, and went on weeping for his son day after day.

bbe@Genesis:37:35 @And all his sons and all his daughters came to give him comfort, but he would not be comforted, saying with weeping, I will go down to the underworld to my son. So great was his father's sorrow for him.

bbe@Genesis:38:1 @Now at that time, Judah went away from his brothers and became the friend of a man of Adullam named Hirah.

bbe@Genesis:38:9 @But Onan, seeing that the offspring would not be his, went in to his brother's wife, but let his seed go on to the earth, so that he might not get offspring for his brother.

bbe@Genesis:38:11 @Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, Go back to your father's house and keep yourself as a widow till my son Shelah becomes a man: for he had in his mind the thought that death might come to him as it had come to his brothers. So Tamar went back to her father's house.

bbe@Genesis:38:12 @And after a time, Bath-shua, Judah's wife, came to her end; and after Judah was comforted for her loss, he went to Timnah, where they were cutting the wool of his sheep, and his friend Hirah of Adullam went with him.

bbe@Genesis:38:18 @And he said, What would you have? And she said, Your ring and its cord and the stick in your hand. So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she became with child by him.

bbe@Genesis:38:19 @Then she got up and went away and took off her veil and put on her widow's clothing.

bbe@Genesis:38:22 @So he went back to Judah, and said, I have not seen her, and the men of the place say that there is no such woman there.

bbe@Genesis:38:23 @And Judah said, Let her keep the things, so that we may not be shamed; I sent the young goat, but you did not see the woman.

bbe@Genesis:38:26 @Then Judah said openly that they were his, and said, She is more upright than I am, for I did not give her to Shelah my son. And he had no more connection with her.

bbe@Genesis:38:27 @And when the time came for her to give birth, it was clear that there were two children in her body.

bbe@Genesis:39:2 @And the Lord was with Joseph, and he did well; and he was living in the house of his master the Egyptian.

bbe@Genesis:39:3 @And his master saw that the Lord was with him, making everything he did go well.

bbe@Genesis:39:10 @And day after day she went on requesting Joseph to come to her and be her lover, but he would not give ear to her.

bbe@Genesis:39:11 @Now one day he went into the house to do his work; and not one of the men of the house was inside.

bbe@Genesis:39:12 @And pulling at his coat, she said, Come to my bed; but slipping out of his coat, he went running away.

bbe@Genesis:39:15 @And hearing it he went running out without his coat.

bbe@Genesis:39:18 @And when I gave a loud cry he went running out without his coat.

bbe@Genesis:39:20 @And Joseph's master took him and put him in prison, in the place where the king's prisoners were kept in chains, and he was there in the prison-house.

bbe@Genesis:39:23 @And the keeper of the prison gave no attention to anything which was under his care, because the Lord was with him; and the Lord made everything he did go well.

bbe@Genesis:40:4 @And the captain put them in Joseph's care, and he did what was needed for them; and they were kept in prison for some time.

bbe@Genesis:40:5 @And these two had a dream on the same night; the chief wine-servant and the chief bread-maker of the king of Egypt, who were in prison, the two of them had dreams with a special sense.

bbe@Genesis:40:6 @And in the morning when Joseph came to them he saw that they were looking sad.

bbe@Genesis:40:7 @And he said to the servants of Pharaoh who were in prison with him, Why are you looking so sad?

bbe@Genesis:40:8 @Then they said to him, We have had a dream, and no one is able to give us the sense. And Joseph said, Does not the sense of dreams come from God? what was your dream?

bbe@Genesis:40:10 @And on the vine were three branches; and it seemed as if it put out buds and flowers, and from them came grapes ready for cutting.

bbe@Genesis:40:13 @After three days Pharaoh will give you honour, and put you back into your place, and you will give him his cup as you did before, when you were his wine-servant.

bbe@Genesis:40:14 @But keep me in mind when things go well for you, and be good to me and say a good word for me to Pharaoh and get me out of this prison:

bbe@Genesis:40:16 @Now when the chief bread-maker saw that the first dream had a good sense, he said to Joseph, I had a dream; and in my dream there were three baskets of white bread on my head;

bbe@Genesis:40:17 @And in the top basket were all sorts of cooked meats for Pharaoh; and the birds were taking them out of the baskets on my head.

bbe@Genesis:41:3 @And after them seven other cows came out of the Nile, poor-looking and thin; and they were by the side of the other cows.

bbe@Genesis:41:5 @But he went to sleep again and had a second dream, in which he saw seven heads of grain, full and good, all on one stem.

bbe@Genesis:41:11 @And we had a dream on the same night, the two of us, and the dreams had a special sense.

bbe@Genesis:41:12 @And there was with us a young Hebrew, the captain's servant, and when we put our dreams before him, he gave us the sense of them.

bbe@Genesis:41:16 @Then Joseph said, Without God there will be no answer of peace for Pharaoh.

bbe@Genesis:41:29 @Seven years are coming in which there will be great wealth of grain in Egypt;

bbe@Genesis:41:38 @Then Pharaoh said to his servants, Where may we get such a man as this, a man in whom is the spirit of God?

bbe@Genesis:41:43 @And he made him take his seat in the second of his carriages; and they went before him crying, Make way! So he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:41:45 @And Pharaoh gave Joseph the name of Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, the priest of On, to be his wife. So Joseph went through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:41:46 @Now Joseph was thirty years old when he came before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from before the face of Pharaoh and went through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:41:54 @Then came the first of the seven years of need as Joseph had said: and in every other land they were short of food; but in the land of Egypt there was bread.

bbe@Genesis:41:56 @And everywhere on the earth they were short of food; then Joseph, opening all his store-houses, gave the people of Egypt grain for money; so great was the need of food in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:42:3 @So Joseph's ten brothers went down to get grain from Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:42:5 @And the sons of Israel came with all the others to get grain: for they were very short of food in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:42:6 @Now Joseph was ruler over all the land, and it was he who gave out the grain to all the people of the land; and Joseph's brothers came before him and went down on their faces to the earth.

bbe@Genesis:42:7 @And when Joseph saw his brothers, it was clear to him who they were, but he made himself strange to them, and talking roughly to them, said, Where do you come from? And they said, From the land of Canaan, to get food.

bbe@Genesis:42:8 @Now though Joseph saw that these were his brothers, they had no idea who he was.

bbe@Genesis:42:11 @We are all one man's sons, we are true men; we have not come with any secret purpose.

bbe@Genesis:42:13 @Then they said, We your servants are twelve brothers, sons of one man in the land of Canaan; the youngest of us is now with our father, and one is dead.

bbe@Genesis:42:21 @And they said to one another, Truly, we did wrong to our brother, for we saw his grief of mind, and we did not give ear to his prayers; that is why this trouble has come on us.

bbe@Genesis:42:23 @They were not conscious that the sense of their words was clear to Joseph, for he had been talking to them through one who had knowledge of their language.

bbe@Genesis:42:24 @And turning away from them, he was overcome with weeping; then he went on talking to them again and took Simeon and put chains on him before their eyes.

bbe@Genesis:42:26 @Then they put the bags of grain on their asses and went away.

bbe@Genesis:42:30 @The man who is the ruler of the country was rough with us and put us in prison, saying that we had come with a secret evil purpose.

bbe@Genesis:42:31 @And we said to him, We are true men, we have no evil designs;

bbe@Genesis:42:32 @We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is dead, and the youngest is now with our father in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:42:35 @And when they took the grain out of their bags, it was seen that every man's parcel of money was in his bag; and when they and their father saw the money, they were full of fear.

bbe@Genesis:43:4 @If you will let our brother go with us, we will go down and get food:

bbe@Genesis:43:5 @But if you will not send him, we will not go down: for the man said to us, You are not to come before me if your brother is not with you.

bbe@Genesis:43:6 @And Israel said, Why were you so cruel to me as to say to him that you had a brother?

bbe@Genesis:43:7 @And they said, The man put a number of questions to us about ourselves and our family, saying, Is your father still living? have you another brother? And we had to give him answers; how were we to have any idea that he would say, Come back with your brother?

bbe@Genesis:43:8 @Then Judah said to Israel, his father, Send the boy with me, and let us be up and going, so that we and you and our little ones may not come to destruction.

bbe@Genesis:43:10 @Truly, if we had not let the time go by, we might have come back again by now.

bbe@Genesis:43:15 @So they took what their father said for the man, and twice as much money in their hands, and Benjamin, and went on their journey to Egypt, and came before Joseph.

bbe@Genesis:43:18 @Now the men were full of fear because they had been taken into Joseph's house and they said, It is because of the money which was put back in our bags the first time; he is looking for something against us, so that he may come down on us and take us and our asses for his use.

bbe@Genesis:43:19 @So they went up to Joseph's chief servant at the door of the house,

bbe@Genesis:43:20 @And said, O my lord, we only came down the first time to get food;

bbe@Genesis:43:21 @And when we came to our night's resting-place, on opening our bags we saw that every man's money was in the mouth of his bag, all our money in full weight: and we have it with us to give it back;

bbe@Genesis:43:22 @As well as more money, with which to get food: we have no idea who put our money in our bags.

bbe@Genesis:43:23 @Then the servant said, Peace be with you: have no fear: your God, even the God of your father, has put wealth in your bags for you: I had your money. Then he let Simeon come out to them.

bbe@Genesis:43:25 @And they got ready the things for Joseph before he came in the middle of the day: for word was given to them that they were to have a meal there.

bbe@Genesis:43:26 @And when Joseph came in, they gave him the things which they had for him, and went down to the earth before him.

bbe@Genesis:43:27 @And he said, How are you? is your father well, the old man of whom you were talking to me? is he still living?

bbe@Genesis:43:28 @And they said, Your servant, our father, is well, he is still living. And they went down on their faces before him.

bbe@Genesis:43:30 @Then Joseph's heart went out to his brother, and he went quickly into his room, for he was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:43:32 @And they put a meal ready for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians who were with him by themselves; because the Egyptians may not take food with the Hebrews, for that would make them unclean.

bbe@Genesis:43:33 @And they were all given their seats before him in order of birth, from the oldest to the youngest: so that they were looking at one another in wonder.

bbe@Genesis:44:3 @And at dawn the men, with their asses, were sent away.

bbe@Genesis:44:8 @See, the money which was in the mouth of our bags we gave back to you when we came again from Canaan: how then might we take silver or gold from your lord's house?

bbe@Genesis:44:9 @If it comes to light that any of your servants has done this, let him be put to death, and we will be your lord's servants.

bbe@Genesis:44:13 @Then in bitter grief they put the bags on the asses again and went back to the town.

bbe@Genesis:44:14 @So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house; and he was still there: and they went down on their faces before him.

bbe@Genesis:44:15 @And Joseph said, What is this thing which you have done? had you no thought that such a man as I would have power to see what is secret?

bbe@Genesis:44:16 @And Judah said, What are we to say to my lord? how may we put ourselves right in his eyes? God has made clear the sin of your servants: now we are in your hands, we and the man in whose bag your cup was seen.

bbe@Genesis:44:20 @And we said to my lord, We have an old father and a young child, whom he had when he was old; his brother is dead and he is the only son of his mother, and is very dear to his father.

bbe@Genesis:44:22 @And we said to my lord, His father will not let him go; for if he went away his father would come to his death.

bbe@Genesis:44:24 @And when we went back to your servant, our father, we gave him an account of my lord's words.

bbe@Genesis:44:26 @And we said, Only if our youngest brother goes with us will we go down; for we may not see the man's face again if our youngest brother is not with us.

bbe@Genesis:44:28 @The one went away from me, and I said, Truly he has come to a violent death; and from that time I have not seen him,

bbe@Genesis:45:1 @Then Joseph, unable to keep back his feelings before those who were with him, gave orders for everyone to be sent away, and no one was present when he made clear to his brothers who he was.

bbe@Genesis:45:2 @And so loud was his weeping, that it came to the ears of the Egyptians and all Pharaoh's house.

bbe@Genesis:45:3 @And Joseph said to his brothers, I am Joseph: is my father still living? But his brothers were not able to give him an answer for they were troubled before him.

bbe@Genesis:45:14 @Then, weeping, he took Benjamin in his arms, and Benjamin himself was weeping on Joseph's neck.

bbe@Genesis:45:15 @Then he gave a kiss to all his brothers, weeping over them; and after that his brothers had no fear of talking to him.

bbe@Genesis:45:16 @And news of these things went through Pharaoh's house, and it was said that Joseph's brothers were come; and it seemed good to Pharaoh and his servants.

bbe@Genesis:45:25 @So they went up from Egypt and came to the land of Canaan, to their father Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:46:1 @And Israel went on his journey with all he had, and came to Beer-sheba, where he made offerings to the God of his father Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:46:5 @Then Jacob went on from Beer-sheba; and the sons of Jacob took their father and their little ones and their wives in the carts which Pharaoh had sent for them.

bbe@Genesis:46:12 @And the sons of Judah: Er and Onan and Shelah and Perez and Zerah: but Er and Onan had come to their death in the land of Canaan; and the sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.

bbe@Genesis:46:15 @All these, together with his daughter Dinah, were the children of Leah, whom Jacob had by her in Paddan-aram; they were thirty-three in number.

bbe@Genesis:46:21 @And the sons of Benjamin were Belah and Becher and Ashbel, Gera and Naaman, Ehi and Rosh, Muppim and Huppim and Ard.

bbe@Genesis:46:22 @All these were the children of Rachel whom Jacob had by her, fourteen persons.

bbe@Genesis:46:25 @These were the children of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to his daughter Rachel, seven persons.

bbe@Genesis:46:26 @All the persons who came with Jacob into Egypt, the offspring of his body, were sixty-six, without taking into account the wives of Jacob's sons.

bbe@Genesis:46:27 @And the sons of Joseph whom he had in Egypt were two. Seventy persons of the family of Jacob came into Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:46:29 @And Joseph got his carriage ready and went to Goshen for the meeting with his father; and when he came before him, he put his arms round his neck, weeping.

bbe@Genesis:47:1 @Then Joseph went to Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brothers with their flocks and their herds and all they have, are come from Canaan, and are now in the land of Goshen.

bbe@Genesis:47:3 @And Pharaoh said to them, What is your business? And they said, Your servants are keepers of sheep, as our fathers were before us.

bbe@Genesis:47:4 @And they said to Pharaoh, We have come to make a living in this land, because we have no grass for our flocks in the land of Canaan; so now let your servants make a place for themselves in the land of Goshen.

bbe@Genesis:47:10 @And Jacob gave Pharaoh his blessing, and went out from before him.

bbe@Genesis:47:13 @Now there was no food to be had in all the land, so that all Egypt and Canaan were wasted from need of food.

bbe@Genesis:47:15 @And when all the money in Egypt and Canaan was gone, the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, Give us bread; would you have us come to destruction before your eyes? for we have no more money.

bbe@Genesis:47:18 @And when that year was ended, they came to him in the second year, and said, We may not keep it from our lord's knowledge that all our money is gone, and all the herds of cattle are my lord's; there is nothing more to give my lord but our bodies and our land;

bbe@Genesis:47:19 @Are we to come to destruction before your eyes, we and our land? take us and our land and give us bread; and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh; and give us seed so that we may have life and the land may not become waste.

bbe@Genesis:47:25 @And they said to him, Truly you have kept us from death; may we have grace in your eyes, and we will be Pharaoh's servants.

bbe@Genesis:47:27 @And so Israel was living among the Egyptians in the land of Goshen; and they got property there, and became very great in numbers and in wealth.

bbe@Genesis:47:28 @And Jacob was living in the land of Goshen for seventeen years; so the years of his life were a hundred and forty-seven.

bbe@Genesis:48:7 @And as for me, when I came from Paddan, death overtook Rachel on the way, when we were still some distance from Ephrath; and I put her to rest there on the road to Ephrath, which is Beth-lehem.

bbe@Genesis:48:10 @Now because Israel was old, his eyes were no longer clear, and he was not able to see. So he made them come near to him, and he gave them a kiss, folding them in his arms.

bbe@Genesis:48:12 @Then Joseph took them from between his knees, and went down on his face to the earth.

bbe@Genesis:49:3 @Reuben, you are my oldest son, the first-fruit of my strength, first in pride and first in power:

bbe@Genesis:49:4 @But because you were uncontrolled, the first place will not be yours; for you went up to your father's bed, even his bride-bed, and made it unclean.

bbe@Genesis:49:6 @Take no part in their secrets, O my soul; keep far away, O my heart, from their meetings; for in their wrath they put men to death, and for their pleasure even oxen were wounded.

bbe@Genesis:49:15 @And he saw that rest was good and the land was pleasing; so he let them put weights on his back and became a servant.

bbe@Genesis:49:24 @But their bows were broken by a strong one, and the cords of their arms were cut by the Strength of Jacob, by the name of the Stone of Israel:

bbe@Genesis:49:28 @These are the twelve tribes of Israel: and these are the words their father said to them, blessing them; to every one he gave his blessing.

bbe@Genesis:49:31 @There Abraham and Sarah his wife were put to rest, and there they put Isaac and Rebekah his wife, and there I put Leah to rest.

bbe@Genesis:49:33 @And when Jacob had come to the end of these words to his sons, stretching himself on his bed, he gave up his spirit, and went the way of his people.

bbe@Genesis:50:1 @And Joseph put his head down on his father's face, weeping and kissing him.

bbe@Genesis:50:3 @And the forty days needed for making the body ready went by: and there was weeping for him among the Egyptians for seventy days.

bbe@Genesis:50:4 @And when the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph said to the servants of Pharaoh, If now you have love for me, say these words to Pharaoh:

bbe@Genesis:50:7 @So Joseph went up to put his father in his last resting-place; and with him went all the servants of Pharaoh, and the chief men of his house and all the chiefs of the land of Egypt,

bbe@Genesis:50:9 @And carriages went up with him and horsemen, a great army.

bbe@Genesis:50:10 @And they came to the grain-floor of Atad on the other side of Jordan, and there they gave the last honours to Jacob, with great and bitter sorrow, weeping for their father for seven days.

bbe@Genesis:50:14 @And when his father had been put to rest, Joseph and his brothers and all who had gone with him, went back to Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:50:15 @Now after the death of their father, Joseph's brothers said to themselves, It may be that Joseph's heart will be turned against us, and he will give us punishment for all the evil which we did to him.

bbe@Genesis:50:17 @You are to say to Joseph, Let the wrongdoing of your brothers be overlooked, and the evil they did to you: now, if it is your pleasure, let the sin of the servants of your father's God have forgiveness. And at these words, Joseph was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:50:18 @Then his brothers went, and falling at his feet, said, Truly, we are your servants.

bbe@Genesis:50:22 @Now Joseph and all his father's family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph's life were a hundred and ten.

bbe@Exodus:1:5 @All the offspring of Jacob were seventy persons: and Joseph had come to Egypt before them.

bbe@Exodus:1:7 @And the children of Israel were fertile, increasing very greatly in numbers and in power; and the land was full of them.

bbe@Exodus:1:8 @Now a new king came to power in Egypt, who had no knowledge of Joseph.

bbe@Exodus:1:9 @And he said to his people, See, the people of Israel are greater in number and in power than we are:

bbe@Exodus:1:11 @So they put overseers of forced work over them, in order to make their strength less by the weight of their work. And they made store-towns for Pharaoh, Pithom and Raamses.

bbe@Exodus:1:12 @But the more cruel they were to them, the more their number increased, till all the land was full of them. And the children of Israel were hated by the Egyptians.

bbe@Exodus:1:19 @And they said to Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women, for they are strong, and the birth takes place before we come to them.

bbe@Exodus:1:20 @And the blessing of God was on these women: and the people were increased in number and became very strong.

bbe@Exodus:2:5 @Now Pharaoh's daughter came down to the Nile to take a bath, while her women were walking by the riverside; and she saw the basket among the river-plants, and sent her servant-girl to get it.

bbe@Exodus:2:8 @And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the girl went and got the child's mother.

bbe@Exodus:2:11 @Now when Moses had become a man, one day he went out to his people and saw how hard their work was; and he saw an Egyptian giving blows to a Hebrew, one of his people.

bbe@Exodus:2:13 @And he went out the day after and saw two of the Hebrews fighting: and he said to him who was in the wrong, Why are you fighting your brother?

bbe@Exodus:2:15 @Now when Pharaoh had news of this, he would have put Moses to death. But Moses went in flight from Pharaoh into the land of Midian: and he took his seat by a water-spring.

bbe@Exodus:2:17 @And the keepers of the sheep came up and were driving them away; but Moses got up and came to their help, watering their flock for them.

bbe@Exodus:2:23 @Now after a long time the king of Egypt came to his end: and the children of Israel were crying in their grief under the weight of their work, and their cry for help came to the ears of God.

bbe@Exodus:2:24 @And at the sound of their weeping the agreement which God had made with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob came to his mind.

bbe@Exodus:2:25 @And God's eyes were turned to the children of Israel and he gave them the knowledge of himself.

bbe@Exodus:3:15 @And God went on to say to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and this is my sign to all generations.

bbe@Exodus:4:1 @And Moses, answering, said, It is certain that they will not have faith in me or give ear to my voice; for they will say, You have not seen the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:4:3 @And he said, Put it down on the earth. And he put it down on the earth and it became a snake; and Moses went running from it.

bbe@Exodus:4:18 @And Moses went back to Jethro, his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go back now to my relations in Egypt and see if they are still living. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.

bbe@Exodus:4:19 @And the Lord said to Moses in Midian, Go back to Egypt, for all the men are dead who were attempting to take your life.

bbe@Exodus:4:20 @And Moses took his wife and his sons and put them on an ass and went back to the land of Egypt: and he took the rod of God in his hand.

bbe@Exodus:4:21 @And the Lord said to Moses, When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have given you power to do: but I will make his heart hard and he will not let the people go.

bbe@Exodus:4:27 @And the Lord said to Aaron, Go into the waste land and you will see Moses. So he went and came across Moses at the mountain of God, and gave him a kiss.

bbe@Exodus:4:29 @Then Moses and Aaron went and got together all the chiefs of the children of Israel:

bbe@Exodus:5:6 @The same day Pharaoh gave orders to the overseers and those who were responsible for the work, saying,

bbe@Exodus:5:10 @And the overseers of the people and their responsible men went out and said to the people, Pharaoh says, I will give you no more dry stems.

bbe@Exodus:5:12 @So the people were sent in all directions through the land of Egypt to get dry grass for stems

bbe@Exodus:5:13 @And the overseers went on driving them and saying, Do your full day's work as before when there were dry stems for you.

bbe@Exodus:5:14 @And the responsible men of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's overseers had put over them, were given blows, and they said to them, Why have you not done your regular work, in making bricks as before?

bbe@Exodus:5:19 @Then the responsible men of the children of Israel saw that they were purposing evil when they said, The number of bricks which you have to make every day will be no less than before.

bbe@Exodus:5:20 @And they came face to face with Moses and Aaron, who were in their way when they came out from Pharaoh:

bbe@Exodus:5:22 @And Moses went back to the Lord and said, Lord, why have you done evil to this people? why have you sent me?

bbe@Exodus:6:2 @And God said to Moses, I am Yahweh:

bbe@Exodus:6:3 @I let myself be seen by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as God, the Ruler of all; but they had no knowledge of my name Yahweh.

bbe@Exodus:6:6 @Say then to the children of Israel, I am Yahweh, and I will take you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians, and make you safe from their power, and will make you free by the strength of my arm after great punishments.

bbe@Exodus:6:8 @And I will be your guide into the land which I made an oath to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for your heritage: I am Yahweh.

bbe@Exodus:6:9 @And Moses said these words to the children of Israel, but they gave no attention to him, because of the grief of their spirit and the cruel weight of their work.

bbe@Exodus:6:12 @And Moses, answering the Lord, said, See, the children of Israel will not give ear to me; how then will Pharaoh give ear to me, whose lips are unclean?

bbe@Exodus:6:16 @And these are the names of the sons of Levi in the order of their generations: Gershon and Kohath and Merari: and the years of Levi's life were a hundred and thirty-seven.

bbe@Exodus:6:18 @And the sons of Kohath: Amram and Izhar and Hebron and Uzziel: and the years of Kohath's life were a hundred and thirty-three.

bbe@Exodus:6:20 @And Amram took Jochebed, his father's sister, as wife; and she gave birth to Aaron and Moses: and the years of Amram's life were a hundred and thirty-seven.

bbe@Exodus:7:10 @Then Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and they did as the Lord had said: and Aaron put his rod down on the earth before Pharaoh and his servants, and it became a snake.

bbe@Exodus:7:21 @And the fish in the Nile came to destruction, and a bad smell went up from the river, and the Egyptians were not able to make use of the water of the Nile for drinking; and there was blood through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:7:23 @Then Pharaoh went into his house, and did not take even this to heart.

bbe@Exodus:7:24 @And all the Egyptians made holes round about the Nile to get drinking-water, for they were not able to make use of the Nile water.

bbe@Exodus:7:25 @And seven days went past, after the Lord had put his hand on the Nile.

bbe@Exodus:8:12 @Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses made prayer to the Lord about the frogs which he had sent on Pharaoh.

bbe@Exodus:8:14 @And they put them together in masses, and a bad smell went up from the land.

bbe@Exodus:8:18 @And the wonder-workers with their secret arts, attempting to make insects, were unable to do so: and there were insects on man and on beast

bbe@Exodus:8:22 @And at that time I will make a division between your land and the land of Goshen where my people are, and no flies will be there; so that you may see that I am the Lord over all the earth.

bbe@Exodus:8:23 @And I will put a division between my people and your people; tomorrow this sign will be seen.

bbe@Exodus:8:26 @And Moses said, It is not right to do so; for we make our offerings of that to which the Egyptians give worship; and if we do so before their eyes, certainly we will be stoned.

bbe@Exodus:8:27 @But we will go three days' journey into the waste land and make an offering to the Lord our God as he may give us orders.

bbe@Exodus:8:30 @Then Moses went out from Pharaoh and made prayer to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:9:2 @For if you will not let them go, but still keep them in your power,

bbe@Exodus:9:4 @And the Lord will make a division between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt; there will be no loss of any of the cattle of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:9:8 @And the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron, Take in your hand a little dust from the fire and let Moses send it in a shower up to heaven before the eyes of Pharaoh.

bbe@Exodus:9:10 @So they took some dust from the fire, and placing themselves before Pharaoh, Moses sent it out in a shower up to heaven; and it became a skin-disease bursting out on man and on beast.

bbe@Exodus:9:11 @And the wonder-workers were not able to take their places before Moses, because of the disease; for the disease was on the wonder-workers and on all the Egyptians.

bbe@Exodus:9:15 @For if I had put the full weight of my hand on you and your people, you would have been cut off from the earth:

bbe@Exodus:9:16 @But, for this very reason, I have kept you from destruction, to make clear to you my power, and so that my name may be honoured through all the earth.

bbe@Exodus:9:26 @Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no ice-storm.

bbe@Exodus:9:31 @And the flax and the barley were damaged, for the barley was almost ready to be cut and the flax was in flower.

bbe@Exodus:9:32 @But the rest of the grain-plants were undamaged, for they had not come up.

bbe@Exodus:9:33 @So Moses went out of the town, and stretching out his hands made prayer to God: and the thunders and the ice-storm came to an end; and the fall of rain was stopped.

bbe@Exodus:9:34 @But when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the ice-storm and the thunders were ended, he went on sinning, and made his heart hard, he and his servants.

bbe@Exodus:10:3 @Then Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: How long will you be lifted up in your pride before me? let my people go so that they may give me worship.

bbe@Exodus:10:6 @And your houses will be full of them, and the houses of your servants and of all the Egyptians; it will be worse than anything your fathers have seen or their fathers, from the day when they were living on the earth till this day. And so he went out from Pharaoh.

bbe@Exodus:10:9 @And Moses said, We will go with our young and our old, with our sons and our daughters, with our flocks and our herds; for we are to keep a feast to the Lord

bbe@Exodus:10:14 @And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, resting on every part of the land, in very great numbers; such an army of locusts had never been seen before, and never will be again.

bbe@Exodus:10:18 @So he went out from Pharaoh and made prayer to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:10:19 @And the Lord sent a very strong west wind, which took up the locusts, driving them into the Red Sea; not one locust was to be seen in any part of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:10:23 @They were not able to see one another, and no one got up from his place for three days: but where the children of Israel were living it was light.

bbe@Exodus:10:26 @So our cattle will have to go with us, not one may be kept back; for they are needed for the worship of the Lord our God; we have no knowledge what offering we have to give till we come to the place.

bbe@Exodus:11:5 @And death will come to every mother's first male child in all the land of Egypt, from the child of Pharaoh on his seat of power, to the child of the servant-girl crushing the grain; and the first births of all the cattle.

bbe@Exodus:11:7 @But against the children of Israel, man or beast, not so much as the tongue of a dog will be moved: so that you may see how the Lord makes a division between Israel and the Egyptians.

bbe@Exodus:11:8 @And all these your servants will come to me, going down on their faces before me and saying, Go out, and all your people with you: and after that I will go out. And he went away from Pharaoh burning with wrath.

bbe@Exodus:12:4 @And if the lamb is more than enough for the family, let that family and its nearest neighbour have a lamb between them, taking into account the number of persons and how much food is needed for every man.

bbe@Exodus:12:6 @Keep it till the fourteenth day of the same month, when everyone who is of the children of Israel is to put it to death between sundown and dark.

bbe@Exodus:12:18 @In the first month, from the evening of the fourteenth day, let your food be unleavened bread till the evening of the twenty-first day of the month.

bbe@Exodus:12:27 @Then you will say, This is the offering of the Lord's Passover; for he went over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he sent death on the Egyptians, and kept our families safe. And the people gave worship with bent heads.

bbe@Exodus:12:28 @And the children of Israel went and did so; as the Lord had given orders to Moses and Aaron, so they did.

bbe@Exodus:12:29 @And in the middle of the night the Lord sent death on every first male child in the land of Egypt, from the child of Pharaoh on his seat of power to the child of the prisoner in the prison; and the first births of all the cattle.

bbe@Exodus:12:30 @Then Pharaoh got up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians; and a great cry went up from Egypt; for there was not a house where someone was not dead.

bbe@Exodus:12:33 @And the Egyptians were forcing the people on, to get them out of the land quickly; for they said, We are all dead men.

bbe@Exodus:12:37 @And the children of Israel made the journey from Rameses to Succoth; there were about six hundred thousand men on foot, as well as children.

bbe@Exodus:12:38 @And a mixed band of people went with them; and flocks and herds in great numbers.

bbe@Exodus:12:41 @And at the end of four hundred and thirty years, to the very day, all the armies of the Lord went out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:13:18 @But God took the people round by the waste land near the Red Sea: and the children of Israel went up in fighting order out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:13:20 @Then they went on their journey from Succoth, and put up their tents in Etham at the edge of the waste land.

bbe@Exodus:13:21 @And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, guiding them on their way; and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light: so that they were able to go on day and night:

bbe@Exodus:13:22 @The pillar of cloud went ever before them by day, and the pillar of fire by night.

bbe@Exodus:14:2 @Give orders to the children of Israel to go back and put up their tents before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, in front of Baal-zephon, opposite to which you are to put up your tents by the sea.

bbe@Exodus:14:5 @And word came to Pharaoh of the flight of the people: and the feeling of Pharaoh and of his servants about the people was changed, and they said, Why have we let Israel go, so that they will do no more work for us?

bbe@Exodus:14:8 @And the Lord made the heart of Pharaoh hard, and he went after the children of Israel: for the children of Israel had gone out without fear.

bbe@Exodus:14:9 @But the Egyptians went after them, all the horses and carriages of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them in their tents by the sea, by Pihahiroth, before Baal-zephon.

bbe@Exodus:14:10 @And when Pharaoh came near, the children of Israel, lifting up their eyes, saw the Egyptians coming after them, and were full of fear; and their cry went up to God.

bbe@Exodus:14:12 @Did we not say to you in Egypt, Let us be as we are, working for the Egyptians? for it is better to be the servants of the Egyptians than to come to our death in the waste land.

bbe@Exodus:14:20 @And it came between the army of Egypt and the army of Israel; and there was a dark cloud between them, and they went on through the night; but the one army came no nearer to the other all the night.

bbe@Exodus:14:21 @And when Moses' hand was stretched out over the sea, the Lord with a strong east wind made the sea go back all night, and the waters were parted in two and the sea became dry land.

bbe@Exodus:14:22 @And the children of Israel went through the sea on dry land: and the waters were a wall on their right side and on their left.

bbe@Exodus:14:23 @Then the Egyptians went after them into the middle of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses and his war-carriages and his horsemen.

bbe@Exodus:14:28 @And the waters came back, covering the war-carriages and the horsemen and all the army of Pharaoh which went after them into the middle of the sea; not one of them was to be seen.

bbe@Exodus:14:29 @But the children of Israel went through the sea walking on dry land, and the waters were a wall on their right side and on their left.

bbe@Exodus:15:5 @They were covered by the deep waters: like a stone they went down under the waves.

bbe@Exodus:15:6 @Full of glory, O Lord, is the power of your right hand; by your right hand those who came against you are broken.

bbe@Exodus:15:7 @When you are lifted up in power, all those who come against you are crushed: when you send out your wrath, they are burned up like dry grass.

bbe@Exodus:15:8 @By your breath the waves were massed together, the flowing waters were lifted up like a pillar; the deep waters became solid in the heart of the sea.

bbe@Exodus:15:10 @You sent your wind and the sea came over them: they went down like lead into the great waters.

bbe@Exodus:15:13 @In your mercy you went before the people whom you have made yours; guiding them in your strength to your holy place.

bbe@Exodus:15:14 @Hearing of you the peoples were shaking in fear: the people of Philistia were gripped with pain.

bbe@Exodus:15:15 @The chiefs of Edom were troubled in heart; the strong men of Moab were in the grip of fear: all the people of Canaan became like water.

bbe@Exodus:15:16 @Fear and grief came on them; by the strength of your arm they were turned to stone; till your people went over, O Lord, till the people went over whom you have made yours.

bbe@Exodus:15:19 @For the horses of Pharaoh, with his war-carriages and his horsemen, went into the sea, and the Lord sent the waters of the sea back over them; but the children of Israel went through the sea on dry land

bbe@Exodus:15:20 @And Miriam, the woman prophet, the sister of Aaron, took an instrument of music in her hand; and all the women went after her with music and dances.

bbe@Exodus:15:21 @And Miriam, answering, said, Make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory; the horse and the horseman he has sent into the sea.

bbe@Exodus:15:22 @Then Moses took Israel forward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the waste land of Shur; and for three days they were in the waste land where there was no water.

bbe@Exodus:15:23 @And when they came to Marah, the water was no good for drinking, for the waters of Marah were bitter, which is why it was named Marah.

bbe@Exodus:15:24 @And the people, crying out against Moses, said, What are we to have for drink?

bbe@Exodus:15:25 @And in answer to his prayer, the Lord made him see a tree, and when he put it into the water, the water was made sweet. There he gave them a law and an order, testing them;

bbe@Exodus:15:27 @And they came to Elim where there were twelve water-springs and seventy palm-trees: and they put up their tents there by the waters.

bbe@Exodus:16:1 @And they went on their way from Elim, and all the children of Israel came into the waste land of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they went out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:16:2 @And all the children of Israel were crying out against Moses and Aaron in the waste land:

bbe@Exodus:16:3 @And the children of Israel said to them, It would have been better for the Lord to have put us to death in the land of Egypt, where we were seated by the flesh-pots and had bread enough for our needs; for you have taken us out to this waste of sand, to put all this people to death through need of food.

bbe@Exodus:16:7 @And in the morning you will see the glory of the Lord; for your angry words against the Lord have come to his ears: and what are we that you are crying out against us?

bbe@Exodus:16:8 @And Moses said, The Lord will give you meat for your food at evening, and in the morning bread in full measure; for your outcry against the Lord has come to his ears: for what are we? your outcry is not against us but against the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:16:10 @And while Aaron was talking to the children of Israel, their eyes were turned in the direction of the waste land, and they saw the glory of the Lord shining in the cloud.

bbe@Exodus:16:20 @But they gave no attention to Moses, and some of them kept it till the morning and there were worms in it and it had an evil smell: and Moses was angry with them.

bbe@Exodus:16:27 @But still on the seventh day some of the people went out to get it, and there was not any.

bbe@Exodus:17:1 @And the children of Israel went on from the waste land of Sin, by stages as the Lord gave them orders, and put up their tents in Rephidim: and there was no drinking-water for the people.

bbe@Exodus:17:2 @So the people were angry with Moses, and said, Give us water for drinking. And Moses said, Why are you angry with me? and why do you put God to the test?

bbe@Exodus:17:3 @And the people were in great need of water; and they made an outcry against Moses, and said, Why have you taken us out of Egypt to send death on us and our children and our cattle through need of water?

bbe@Exodus:17:7 @And he gave that place the name Massah and Meribah, because the children of Israel were angry, and because they put the Lord to the test, saying, Is the Lord with us or not?

bbe@Exodus:17:10 @So Joshua did as Moses said to him, and went to war with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

bbe@Exodus:17:12 @But Moses' hands became tired; so they put a stone under him and he took his seat on it, Aaron and Hur supporting his hands, one on one side and one on the other; so his hands were kept up without falling till the sun went down.

bbe@Exodus:17:15 @Then Moses put up an altar and gave it the name of Yahweh-nissi:

bbe@Exodus:18:7 @And Moses went out to his father-in-law, and went down on his face before him and gave him a kiss; and they said to one another, Are you well? and they came into the tent.

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

bbe@Exodus:18:13 @Now on the day after, Moses took his seat to give decisions for the people: and the people were waiting before Moses from morning till evening.

bbe@Exodus:18:16 @And if they have any question between themselves, they come to me, and I am judge between a man and his neighbour, and I give them the orders and laws of God.

bbe@Exodus:18:22 @And let them be judges in the causes of the people at all times: and let them put before you all important questions, but in small things let them give decisions themselves: in this way, it will be less hard for you, and they will take the weight off you.

bbe@Exodus:18:23 @If you do this, and God gives approval, then you will be able to go on without weariness, and all this people will go to their tents in peace.

bbe@Exodus:18:26 @And they were judges in the causes of the people at all times: the hard questions they put before Moses; but on every small point they gave decisions themselves.

bbe@Exodus:18:27 @And Moses let his father-in-law go away, and he went back to his land.

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

bbe@Exodus:19:3 @And Moses went up to God, and the voice of the Lord came to him from the mountain, saying, Say to the family of Jacob, and give word to the children of Israel:

bbe@Exodus:19:8 @And all the people, answering together, said, Whatever the Lord has said we will do. And Moses took back to the Lord the words of the people.

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

bbe@Exodus:19:16 @And when morning came on the third day, there were thunders and flames and a thick cloud on the mountain, and a horn sounding very loud; and all the people in the tents were shaking with fear.

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

bbe@Exodus:19:19 @And when the sound of the horn became louder and louder, Moses' words were answered by the voice of God.

bbe@Exodus:19:20 @Then the Lord came down on to Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and the Lord sent for Moses to come up to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.

bbe@Exodus:19:25 @So Moses went down to the people and said this to them.

bbe@Exodus:20:18 @And all the people were watching the thunderings and the flames and the sound of the horn and the mountain smoking; and when they saw it, they kept far off, shaking with fear.

bbe@Exodus:20:19 @And they said to Moses, To your words we will give ear, but let not the voice of God come to our ears, for fear death may come on us.

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

bbe@Exodus:21:8 @If she is not pleasing to her master who has taken her for himself, let a payment be made for her so that she may go free; her master has no power to get a price for her and send her to a strange land, because he has been false to her.

bbe@Exodus:21:16 @Any man who gets another into his power in order to get a price for him is to be put to death, if you take him in the act.

bbe@Exodus:21:19 @If he is able to get up again and go about with a stick, the other will be let off; only he will have to give him payment for the loss of his time, and see that he is cared for till he is well.

bbe@Exodus:22:18 @Any woman using unnatural powers or secret arts is to be put to death.

bbe@Exodus:22:21 @Do no wrong to a man from a strange country, and do not be hard on him; for you yourselves were living in a strange country, in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:22:29 @Do not keep back your offerings from the wealth of your grain and your vines. The first of your sons you are to give to me.

bbe@Exodus:23:5 @If you see the ass of one who has no love for you bent down to the earth under the weight which is put on it, you are to come to its help, even against your desire.

bbe@Exodus:23:9 @Do not be hard on the man from a strange country who is living among you; for you have had experience of the feelings of one who is far from the land of his birth, because you yourselves were living in Egypt, in a strange land.

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

bbe@Exodus:24:3 @Then Moses came and put before the people all the words of the Lord and his laws: and all the people, answering with one voice, said, Whatever the Lord has said we will do.

bbe@Exodus:24:4 @Then Moses put down in writing all the words of the Lord, and he got up early in the morning and made an altar at the foot of the mountain, with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:24:7 @And he took the book of the agreement, reading it in the hearing of the people: and they said, Everything which the Lord has said we will do, and we will keep his laws.

bbe@Exodus:24:9 @Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the chiefs of Israel went up:

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

bbe@Exodus:24:13 @Then Moses and Joshua his servant got up; and Moses went up into the mountain of God.

bbe@Exodus:24:14 @And he said to the chiefs, Keep your places here till we come back to you: Aaron and Hur are with you; if anyone has any cause let him go to them.

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

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

bbe@Exodus:25:6 @Oil for the light, spices for the sweet-smelling oil, sweet perfumes for burning;

bbe@Exodus:25:22 @And there, between the two winged ones on the cover of the ark, I will come to you, face to face, and make clear to you all the orders I have to give you for the children of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:25:31 @And you are to make a support for lights, of the best gold; its base and its pillar are to be of hammered gold; its cups, its buds, and its flowers are to be made of the same metal.

bbe@Exodus:25:34 @And on the pillar, four cups like almond flowers, every one with its bud and its flower:

bbe@Exodus:26:2 @Every curtain is to be twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide, all of the same measure.

bbe@Exodus:26:18 @These are the boards needed for the house; twenty boards for the south side,

bbe@Exodus:26:19 @With forty silver bases under the twenty boards, two bases under every board to take its tongues.

bbe@Exodus:26:20 @And twenty boards for the second side of the house on the north,

bbe@Exodus:26:22 @And six boards for the back of the House on the west,

bbe@Exodus:26:27 @And five for the boards on the other side of the House, and five for the west side of the House at the back.

bbe@Exodus:26:33 @And you are to put up the veil under the hooks, and put inside it the ark of the law: the veil is to be a division between the holy place and the most holy.

bbe@Exodus:27:10 @Their twenty pillars and their twenty bases are to be of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their bands are to be of silver.

bbe@Exodus:27:11 @And on the north side in the same way, hangings a hundred cubits long, with twenty pillars of brass on bases of brass; their hooks and their bands are to be of silver.

bbe@Exodus:27:12 @And for the open space on the west side, the hangings are to be fifty cubits wide, with ten pillars and ten bases;

bbe@Exodus:27:16 @And across the doorway, a veil of twenty cubits of the best linen, made of needlework of blue and purple and red, with four pillars and four bases.

bbe@Exodus:28:11 @With the work of a jeweller, like the cutting of a stamp, the names of the children of Israel are to be cut on them, and they are to be fixed in twisted frames of gold.

bbe@Exodus:28:17 @And on it you are to put four lines of jewels; the first line is to be a cornelian, a chrysolite, and an emerald;

bbe@Exodus:28:21 @The jewels are to be twelve in number, for the names of the children of Israel; every jewel having the name of one of the twelve tribes cut on it as on a stamp.

bbe@Exodus:28:26 @Then make two gold rings and put them on the lower ends of the bag, at the edge of it on the inner side nearest to the ephod.

bbe@Exodus:28:30 @And in the bag you are to put the Urim and Thummim, so that they may be on Aaron's heart whenever he goes in before the Lord; and Aaron may have the power of making decisions for the children of Israel before the Lord at all times.

bbe@Exodus:28:33 @And round the skirts of it put fruits in blue and purple and red, with bells of gold between;

bbe@Exodus:29:18 @And let them all be burned on the altar as a burned offering to the Lord: a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:29:25 @Then take them from their hands, and let them be burned on the burned offering on the altar, a sweet smell before the Lord, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:29:33 @All those things which were used as offerings to take away sin, and to make them holy to be priests, they may have for food: but no one who is not a priest may have them, for they are holy food.

bbe@Exodus:29:41 @And the other lamb is to be offered in the evening, and with it the same meal offering and drink offering, for a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:30:7 @And on this altar sweet spices are to be burned by Aaron every morning when he sees to the lights.

bbe@Exodus:30:8 @And every evening, when he puts the lights up in their places, the spices are to be burned, a sweet-smelling smoke going up before the Lord from generation to generation for ever.

bbe@Exodus:30:13 @And this is what they are to give; let every man who is numbered give half a shekel, by the scale of the holy place: (the shekel being valued at twenty gerahs:) this money is an offering to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:30:14 @Everyone who is numbered, from twenty years old and over, is to give an offering to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:30:15 @The man of wealth is to give no more and the poor man no less than the half-shekel of silver, when the offering is made to the Lord as the price for your lives.

bbe@Exodus:31:17 @It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever; because in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he took his rest and had pleasure in it.

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

bbe@Exodus:32:11 @But Moses made prayer to God, saying, Lord, why is your wrath burning against your people whom you took out of the land of Egypt, with great power and with the strength of your hand?

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

bbe@Exodus:32:25 @And Moses saw that the people were out of control, for Aaron had let them loose to their shame before their haters:

bbe@Exodus:32:28 @And the sons of Levi did as Moses said; and about three thousand of the people were put to death that day.

bbe@Exodus:32:31 @Then Moses went back to the Lord and said, This people has done a great sin, making themselves a god of gold;

bbe@Exodus:33:4 @Hearing this bad news the people were full of grief, and no one put on his ornaments.

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

bbe@Exodus:33:8 @And whenever Moses went out to the Tent of meeting, all the people got up and everyone went to the door of his tent, looking after Moses till he went inside the Tent.

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

bbe@Exodus:33:10 @And all the people saw the cloud at the door of the Tent, and they went down on their faces, everyone at the door of his tent.

bbe@Exodus:33:16 @For is not the fact of your going with us the sign that I and this people have grace in your eyes, so that we, that is, I and your people, are separate from all other people on the face of the earth?

bbe@Exodus:34:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, Make two other stones like the first two; and I will put on them the words which were on the first stones, which were broken by you.

bbe@Exodus:34:4 @So Moses got two stones cut like the first; and early in the morning he went up Mount Sinai, as the Lord had said, with the two stones in his hand.

bbe@Exodus:34:6 @And the Lord went past before his eyes, saying, The Lord, the Lord, a God full of pity and grace, slow to wrath and great in mercy and faith;

bbe@Exodus:34:8 @Then Moses quickly went down on his face in worship.

bbe@Exodus:34:22 @And you are to keep the feast of weeks when you get in the first-fruits of the grain, and the feast at the turn of the year when you take in the produce of your fields.

bbe@Exodus:34:34 @But whenever Moses went in before the Lord to have talk with him, he took off the veil till he came out. And whenever he came out he said to the children of Israel what he had been ordered to say;

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

bbe@Exodus:35:8 @And oil for the lights, and spices for the holy oil and for the sweet perfumes for burning.

bbe@Exodus:35:9 @And beryls and jewels to be cut for the ephod and for the priest's bag.

bbe@Exodus:35:15 @And the altar for burning spices, with its rods, and the holy oil and the sweet perfume, and the curtain for the door, at the door of the House;

bbe@Exodus:35:20 @And all the children of Israel went away from Moses.

bbe@Exodus:35:22 @They came, men and women, all who were ready to give, and gave pins and nose-rings and finger-rings and neck-ornaments, all of gold; everyone gave an offering of gold to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:35:25 @And all the women who were expert with their hands, made cloth, and gave the work of their hands, blue and purple and red and the best linen.

bbe@Exodus:35:27 @And the rulers gave the beryls and the cut jewels for the ephod and the priest's bag;

bbe@Exodus:35:28 @And the spice and the oil for the light, and the holy oil and the sweet perfumes.

bbe@Exodus:35:34 @And he has given to him, and to Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the power of training others.

bbe@Exodus:36:3 @And they took from Moses all the offerings which the children of Israel had given for the building of the holy place. And still they went on giving him more free offerings every morning.

bbe@Exodus:36:4 @Then the wise men, who were doing all the work of the holy place, came from their work;

bbe@Exodus:36:6 @So Moses made an order and had it given out through all the tents, saying, Let no man or woman make any more offerings for the holy place. So the people were kept from giving more.

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

bbe@Exodus:36:10 @And five curtains were joined together, and the other five curtains were joined together.

bbe@Exodus:36:14 @And they made curtains of goats' hair for the tent; eleven curtains were made.

bbe@Exodus:36:16 @Five curtains were joined together to make one group, and six curtains were joined together to make the other group.

bbe@Exodus:36:21 @The boards were ten cubits long and one cubit and a half wide.

bbe@Exodus:36:22 @Every board had two tongues fixed into it; all the boards were made in this way.

bbe@Exodus:36:23 @They made twenty boards for the south side of the House:

bbe@Exodus:36:24 @And for these twenty boards, forty silver bases, two bases under every board, to take its tongues.

bbe@Exodus:36:25 @And for the second side of the House, on the north, they made twenty boards,

bbe@Exodus:36:27 @And for the west side of the House, at the back, they made six boards,

bbe@Exodus:36:29 @These were joined together at the base and at the top to one ring, so forming the two angles.

bbe@Exodus:36:30 @So there were eight boards with sixteen bases of silver, two bases under every board.

bbe@Exodus:36:32 @And five for the boards on the other side of the House, and five for the boards at the back, on the west.

bbe@Exodus:36:34 @All the boards were plated with gold, and the rings through which the rods went were of gold, and the rods were plated with gold.

bbe@Exodus:36:38 @And five pillars for the curtain, with their hooks; the heads of the pillars were of gold and they were circled with bands of gold; and their five bases were of brass.

bbe@Exodus:37:8 @Placing one at one end and one at the other; the winged ones were part of the cover.

bbe@Exodus:37:9 @And their wings were stretched out over the cover; the faces of the winged ones were opposite one another and facing the cover.

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

bbe@Exodus:37:17 @Then he made the support for the lights, all of the best gold; its base and its pillar were of hammered gold; its cups and buds and flowers were all made out of the same metal:

bbe@Exodus:37:19 @Every branch having three cups made like almond flowers, every cup with a bud and a flower on all the branches;

bbe@Exodus:37:20 @And on its pillar, four cups like almond flowers, every one with its bud and its flower;

bbe@Exodus:37:22 @The buds and the branches were made of the same metal, all together one complete work of the best hammered gold.

bbe@Exodus:37:26 @The top and the sides and the horns were all plated with the best gold; and he put an edge of gold all round it.

bbe@Exodus:37:29 @And he made the holy oil and the perfume of sweet spices for burning, after the art of the perfume-maker.

bbe@Exodus:38:10 @Their twenty pillars and their twenty bases were brass; and the hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver.

bbe@Exodus:38:11 @And for the north side. hangings a hundred cubits long, on twenty brass pillars in brass bases, with silver hooks and bands.

bbe@Exodus:38:12 @And on the west side, hangings fifty cubits long, on ten pillars in ten bases, with silver bands.

bbe@Exodus:38:14 @The hangings on one side of the doorway were fifteen cubits long, on three pillars with their three bases;

bbe@Exodus:38:15 @And the same on the other side of the doorway; on this side and on that the hangings were fifteen cubits long, on three pillars with their three bases.

bbe@Exodus:38:16 @All the hangings were of the best linen.

bbe@Exodus:38:17 @And the bases of the pillars were of brass; their hooks and the bands round the tops of them were of silver; all the pillars were ringed with silver.

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

bbe@Exodus:38:19 @There were four pillars with their bases, all of brass, the hooks being of silver, and their tops and their bands being covered with silver.

bbe@Exodus:38:20 @All the nails used for the House and the open space round it were of brass.

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

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

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

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

bbe@Exodus:39:13 @In the fourth, a topaz, a beryl, and a jasper; they were fixed in twisted frames of gold.

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

bbe@Exodus:39:18 @And the other two ends of the chains were joined to the two frames and fixed to the front of the ephod over the arm-holes.

bbe@Exodus:39:19 @And they made two rings of gold and put them on the two lower ends of the bag, on the inner side nearest to the ephod.

bbe@Exodus:39:20 @And two other gold rings were put on the front of the ephod, over the arm-holes, at the join, and over the worked band.

bbe@Exodus:39:21 @And the rings on the bag were fixed to the rings of the ephod by a blue cord, keeping it in place over the band, so that the bag might not get loose, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

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

bbe@Exodus:39:24 @The skirts of the robe were worked all round with fruits in blue and purple and red made of twisted linen.

bbe@Exodus:39:25 @And between the fruits all round the skirt they put gold bells, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Exodus:39:26 @All round the skirt of the robe were bells and fruits in turn.

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

bbe@Exodus:39:38 @And the gold altar, and the holy oil, and the sweet perfume for burning, and the curtain for the doorway of the tent;

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

bbe@Exodus:40:27 @Burning sweet perfumes on it, as the Lord had given him orders.

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

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

bbe@Exodus:40:32 @Whenever they went into the Tent of meeting, and when they came near the altar, as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

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

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

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

bbe@Leviticus:1:17 @And let it be broken open at the wings, but not cut in two; and let it be burned on the altar by the priest on the wood which is on the fire; it is a burned offering; an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:2:2 @And let him take it to Aaron's sons, the priests; and having taken in his hand some of the meal and of the oil, with all the perfume, let him give it to the priest to be burned on the altar, as a sign, an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:2:9 @And he is to take from the meal offering a part, for a sign, burning it on the altar; an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:2:12 @You may give them as an offering of first-fruits to the Lord, but they are not to go up as a sweet smell on the altar.

bbe@Leviticus:3:5 @That it may be burned by Aaron's sons on the altar, on the burned offering which is on the wood on the fire: it is an offering made by fire of a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:3:16 @That it may be burned by the priest on the altar; it is the food of the offering made by fire for a sweet smell: all the fat is the Lord's.

bbe@Leviticus:4:31 @And let all its fat be taken away, as the fat is taken away from the peace-offerings, and let it be burned on the altar by the priest for a sweet smell to the Lord; and the priest will take away his sin and he will have forgiveness.

bbe@Leviticus:6:4 @Causing sin to come on him, then he will have to give back the thing he took by force or got by cruel acts, or the goods which were put in his care or the thing he came on by chance,

bbe@Leviticus:6:15 @The priest is to take in his hand some of the meal of the meal offering and of the oil of it, and all the perfume on it, burning it on the altar as a sign, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:6:21 @Let it be made with oil on a flat plate; when it is well mixed and cooked, let it be broken and taken in as a meal offering, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:7:12 @If any man gives his offering as a praise-offering, then let him give with the offering, unleavened cakes mixed with oil and thin unleavened cakes covered with oil and cakes of the best meal well mixed with oil.

bbe@Leviticus:7:35 @This is the holy part given to Aaron and to his sons, out of the offerings made to the Lord by fire, on the day when they were made priests before the Lord;

bbe@Leviticus:7:36 @Which the Lord said the children of Israel were to give them, on the day when he made them his priests. It is their right for ever from generation to generation.

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

bbe@Leviticus:8:20 @And when the sheep had been cut into parts, the head and the parts and the fat were burned by Moses.

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

bbe@Leviticus:8:22 @And he put the other sheep before the Lord, the sheep with which they were made priests; and Aaron and his sons put their hands on the head of the sheep,

bbe@Leviticus:8:28 @And Moses took them from their hands, and they were burned on the altar on the burned offering, as a priest's offering for a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:9:10 @But the fat and the kidneys and the fat on the liver of the sin-offering were burned by him on the altar as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Leviticus:9:11 @And the flesh and the skin were burned with fire outside the tent-circle;

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

bbe@Leviticus:9:18 @And he put to death the ox and the sheep, which were the peace-offerings for the people; and Aaron's sons gave him the blood and he put some of it on and round the altar;

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

bbe@Leviticus:10:6 @And Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons, Do not let your hair be loose, and give no signs of grief; so that death may not overtake you, and his wrath come on all the people; but let there be weeping among your brothers and all the house of Israel for this burning of the Lord's fire.

bbe@Leviticus:10:10 @And make a division between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean;

bbe@Leviticus:10:12 @And Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons who were still living, Take the rest of the meal offering from the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and take it for your food, without leaven, at the side of the altar, for it is most holy.

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

bbe@Leviticus:11:29 @And these are unclean to you among things which go low down on the earth; the weasel and the mouse and the great lizard, and animals of that sort;

bbe@Leviticus:12:2 @Say to the children of Israel, If a woman is with child and gives birth to a male child, she will be unclean for seven days, as when she is unwell.

bbe@Leviticus:12:5 @But if she gives birth to a female child, then she will be unclean for two weeks, as when she is unwell; and she will not be completely clean for sixty-six days.

bbe@Leviticus:13:18 @And if a bad place has come out on the skin and is well again,

bbe@Leviticus:16:12 @And he is to take a vessel full of burning coal from the altar before the Lord and in his hand some sweet perfume crushed small, and take it inside the veil;

bbe@Leviticus:16:23 @Then let Aaron come into the Tent of meeting and take off the linen clothing which he put on when he went into the holy place, and put them down there;

bbe@Leviticus:17:6 @And the priest will put blood on the altar of the Lord at the door of the Tent of meeting, burning the fat for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:18:3 @You may not do those things which were done in the land of Egypt where you were living; and you may not do those things which are done in the land of Canaan where I am taking you, or be guided in your behaviour by their rules.

bbe@Leviticus:18:27 @(For all these disgusting things were done by the men of this country who were there before you, and the land has been made unclean by them;)

bbe@Leviticus:18:28 @So that the land may not put you out from it, when you make it unclean, as it put out the nations which were there before you.

bbe@Leviticus:18:30 @So then, keep my orders, so that you may not do any of these disgusting things which were done before you, or make yourselves unclean through them: I am the Lord your God.

bbe@Leviticus:19:34 @Let him be to you as one of your countrymen and have love for him as for yourself; for you were living in a strange land, in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

bbe@Leviticus:19:35 @Do not make false decisions in questions of yard-sticks and weights and measures.

bbe@Leviticus:19:36 @Have true scales, true weights and measures for all things: I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt;

bbe@Leviticus:20:18 @And if a man has sex relations with a woman at the time when she is unwell, he has seen her fountain and she has let the fountain of her blood be uncovered, and the two of them are to be cut off from among their people.

bbe@Leviticus:20:25 @So then, make division between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the clean bird and the unclean: do not make yourselves disgusting by any beast or bird or anything which goes flat on the earth, which has been marked by me as unclean for you.

bbe@Leviticus:23:13 @And let the meal offering with it be two tenth parts of an ephah of the best meal mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to the Lord for a sweet smell; and the drink offering with it is to be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.

bbe@Leviticus:23:15 @And let seven full weeks be numbered from the day after the Sabbath, the day when you give the grain for the wave offering;

bbe@Leviticus:23:18 @And with the bread, take seven lambs of the first year, without any marks, and one ox and two male sheep, to be a burned offering to the Lord, with their meal offering and their drink offerings, an offering of a sweet smell made by fire to the Lord

bbe@Leviticus:24:5 @And take the best meal and make twelve cakes of it, a fifth part of an ephah in every cake.

bbe@Leviticus:24:7 @And on the lines of cakes put clean sweet-smelling spices, for a sign on the bread, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

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

bbe@Leviticus:26:26 @When I take away your bread of life, ten women will be cooking bread in one oven, and your bread will be measured out by weight; you will have food but never enough.

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

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

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

bbe@Leviticus:26:46 @These are the rules, decisions, and laws, which the Lord made between himself and the children of Israel in Mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.

bbe@Numbers:3:22 @Those who were numbered of them, the males from one month old and over, were seven thousand, five hundred.

bbe@Numbers:3:23 @The tents of the Gershonites are to be placed at the back of the House, to the west.

bbe@Numbers:3:28 @Those who were numbered of them, the males from one month old and over, were eight thousand, six hundred, who were responsible for the care of the holy place.

bbe@Numbers:3:34 @Those who were numbered of them, the males of a month old and over, were six thousand, two hundred.

bbe@Numbers:3:39 @All the Levites numbered by Moses and Aaron at the order of the Lord, all the males of one month old and over numbered in the order of their families, were twenty-two thousand.

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

bbe@Numbers:3:47 @Will be five shekels for every one, by the scale of the holy place (the shekel is twenty gerahs);

bbe@Numbers:4:16 @And Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, is to be responsible for the oil for the light, and the sweet perfumes for burning, and the regular meal offering, and the holy oil; the House and the holy place and everything in it will be in his care.

bbe@Numbers:4:35 @Numbering all those from thirty to fifty years old who were able to do the work in the Tent of meeting;

bbe@Numbers:4:37 @This is the number of those of the Kohathites who did the work in the Tent of meeting, as they were numbered by Moses and Aaron at the order of the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:4:38 @And those of the sons of Gershon who were numbered by families,

bbe@Numbers:4:39 @All those from thirty to fifty years old who were able to do the work in the Tent of meeting,

bbe@Numbers:4:40 @Who were numbered by families in the order of their fathers' houses, were two thousand, six hundred and thirty.

bbe@Numbers:4:42 @And those of the sons of Merari who were numbered by families, in the order of their fathers' houses,

bbe@Numbers:4:44 @Who were numbered by families, were three thousand, two hundred.

bbe@Numbers:4:46 @And all the Levites who were numbered by Moses and Aaron and the chiefs of the people, by families, in the order of their fathers' houses,

bbe@Numbers:4:47 @Those from thirty to fifty years old who were able to do the work of the Tent of meeting and of its transport,

bbe@Numbers:4:49 @At the order of the Lord they were numbered by Moses, every one in relation to his work and to his part in the transport; so they were numbered by Moses at the order of the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:7:2 @Then the chiefs of Israel, the heads of their fathers' houses, made offerings; these were the chiefs of the tribes, who were over those who were numbered.

bbe@Numbers:7:3 @And they came with their offerings before the Lord, six covered carts and twelve oxen; a cart for every two of the chiefs, and for every one an ox.

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

bbe@Numbers:7:19 @He gave one silver plate, a hundred and thirty shekels in weight, one silver basin of seventy shekels, by the scale of the holy place; the two of them full of the best meal mixed with oil for a meal offering;

bbe@Numbers:7:78 @On the twelfth day Ahira, the son of Enan, chief of the children of Naphtali:

bbe@Numbers:7:79 @His offering was one silver plate, a hundred and thirty shekels in weight, one silver basin of seventy shekels, by the scale of the holy place; the two of them full of the best meal mixed with oil for a meal offering;

bbe@Numbers:7:84 @These were the offerings given for the altar by the chiefs of Israel, when the holy oil was put on it: twelve silver plates, twelve silver basins, twelve gold spoons;

bbe@Numbers:7:85 @The weight of every silver plate was a hundred and thirty shekels, and of every basin seventy; the weight of all the silver of the vessels was two thousand and four hundred shekels, by the scale of the holy place;

bbe@Numbers:7:86 @The weight of the twelve gold spoons of spice for burning was ten shekels for every one, by the scale of the holy place; all the gold of the spoons was a hundred and twenty shekels;

bbe@Numbers:7:87 @All the oxen, for the burned offering were twelve, the male sheep twelve, the he-lambs of the first year twelve, with their meal offering; and the males of the goats for sin-offering twelve;

bbe@Numbers:7:88 @And all the oxen for the peace-offerings, twenty-four oxen, the male sheep sixty, and the he-goats sixty, the he-lambs of the first year sixty. This was given for the altar after the holy oil was put on it.

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

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

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

bbe@Numbers:8:22 @And then the Levites went in to do their work in the Tent of meeting before Aaron and his sons: all the orders which the Lord had given Moses about the Levites were put into effect.

bbe@Numbers:8:24 @This is the rule for the Levites: those of twenty-five years old and over are to go in and do the work of the Tent of meeting;

bbe@Numbers:9:6 @And there were certain men who were unclean because of a dead body, so that they were not able to keep the Passover on that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:

bbe@Numbers:9:7 @And these men said to him, We have been made unclean by the dead body of a man; why may we not make the offering of the Lord at the regular time among the children of Israel?

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

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

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

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

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

bbe@Numbers:9:23 @At the word of the Lord they put up their tents, and at the word of the Lord they went forward on their journey: they kept the orders of the Lord as he gave them by Moses.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:10:13 @They went forward for the first time on their journey as the Lord had given orders by the hand of Moses.

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

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

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

bbe@Numbers:10:21 @Then the Kohathites went forward with the holy place; the others put up the House ready for their coming.

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

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

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

bbe@Numbers:10:29 @Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of his father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, We are journeying to that place of which the Lord has said, I will give it to you: so come with us, and it will be for your profit: for the Lord has good things in store for Israel.

bbe@Numbers:10:32 @And if you come with us, we will give you a part in whatever good the Lord does for us.

bbe@Numbers:10:33 @So they went forward three days' journey from the mountain of the Lord; and the ark of the Lord's agreement went three days' journey before them, looking for a resting-place for them;

bbe@Numbers:10:34 @And by day the cloud of the Lord went over them, when they went forward from the place where they had put up their tents.

bbe@Numbers:10:35 @And when the ark went forward Moses said, Come up, O Lord, and let the armies of those who are against you be broken, and let your haters go in flight before you.

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

bbe@Numbers:11:4 @And the mixed band of people who went with them were overcome by desire: and the children of Israel, weeping again, said, Who will give us flesh for our food?

bbe@Numbers:11:5 @Sweet is the memory of the fish we had in Egypt for nothing, and the fruit and green plants of every sort, sharp and pleasing to the taste:

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

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

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

bbe@Numbers:11:13 @Where am I to get flesh to give to all this people? For they are weeping to me and saying, Give us flesh for our food.

bbe@Numbers:11:14 @I am not able by myself to take the weight of all this people, for it is more than my strength.

bbe@Numbers:11:15 @If this is to be my fate, put me to death now in answer to my prayer, if I have grace in your eyes; and let me not see my shame.

bbe@Numbers:11:16 @And the Lord said to Moses, Send for seventy of the responsible men of Israel, who are in your opinion men of weight and authority over the people; make them come to the Tent of meeting and be there with you.

bbe@Numbers:11:17 @And I will come down and have talk with you there: and I will take some of the spirit which is on you and put it on them, and they will take part of the weight of the people off you, so that you do not have to take it by yourself.

bbe@Numbers:11:18 @And say to the people, Make yourselves clean before tomorrow and you will have flesh for your food: for in the ears of the Lord you have been weeping and saying, Who will give us flesh for food? for we were well off in Egypt: and so the Lord will give you flesh, and it will be your food;

bbe@Numbers:11:19 @Not for one day only, or even for five or ten or twenty days;

bbe@Numbers:11:20 @But every day for a month, till you are tired of it, turning from it in disgust: because you have gone against the Lord who is with you, and have been weeping before him saying, Why did we come out of Egypt?

bbe@Numbers:11:24 @And Moses went out and gave the people the words of the Lord: and he took seventy of the responsible men of the people, placing them round the Tent.

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

bbe@Numbers:11:26 @But two men were still in the tent-circle one of them named Eldad and the other Medad: and the spirit came to rest on them; they were among those who had been sent for, but they had not gone out to the Tent: and the prophet's power came on them in the tent-circle.

bbe@Numbers:11:27 @And a young man went running to Moses and said, Eldad and Medad are acting as prophets in the tent-circle.

bbe@Numbers:11:29 @And Moses said to him, Are you moved by envy on my account? If only all the Lord's people were prophets, and the Lord might put his spirit on them!

bbe@Numbers:11:30 @Then Moses, with the responsible men of Israel, went back to the tent-circle.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:11:35 @From Kibroth-hattaavah the people went on to Hazeroth; and there they put up their tents.

bbe@Numbers:12:4 @And suddenly the Lord said to Moses and Aaron and Miriam, Come out, you three, to the Tent of meeting. And the three of them went out.

bbe@Numbers:12:9 @And burning with wrath against them, the Lord went away.

bbe@Numbers:12:11 @Then Aaron said to Moses, O my lord, let not our sin be on our heads, for we have done foolishly and are sinners.

bbe@Numbers:12:13 @And Moses, crying to the Lord, said, Let my prayer come before you, O God, and make her well

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

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

bbe@Numbers:13:4 @And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua, the son of Zaccur.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:13:22 @They went up into the South and came to Hebron; and Ahiman and Sheshai and Talmai, the children of Anak, were living there. (Now the building of Hebron took place seven years before that of Zoan in Egypt.)

bbe@Numbers:13:23 @And they came to the valley of Eshcol, and cutting down a vine-branch with its grapes, two of them took it on a rod between them; and they took some pomegranates and figs.

bbe@Numbers:13:27 @And they said, We came to the land where you sent us, and truly it is flowing with milk and honey: and here is some of the produce of it.

bbe@Numbers:13:28 @But the people living in the land are strong, and the towns are walled and very great; further, we saw the children of Anak there.

bbe@Numbers:13:30 @Then Caleb made signs to the people to keep quiet, and said to Moses, Let us go up straight away and take this land; for we are well able to overcome it.

bbe@Numbers:13:31 @But the men who had gone up with him said, We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we.

bbe@Numbers:13:32 @And they gave the children of Israel a bad account of the land they had been to see, saying, This land through which we went is a land causing destruction to those living in it; and all the people we saw there are men of more than common size.

bbe@Numbers:13:33 @There we saw those great men, the sons of Anak, offspring of the Nephilim: and we seemed to ourselves no more than insects, and so we seemed to them.

bbe@Numbers:14:1 @Then all the people gave load cries of grief, and all that night they gave themselves up to weeping.

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

bbe@Numbers:14:5 @Then Moses and Aaron went down on their faces before the meeting of the people.

bbe@Numbers:14:7 @Said to all the children of Israel, This land which we went through to see is a very good land.

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

bbe@Numbers:14:13 @And Moses said to the Lord, Then it will come to the ears of the Egyptians; for by your power you took this people out from among them;

bbe@Numbers:14:17 @So now, may my prayer come before you, and let the power of the Lord be great, as you said:

bbe@Numbers:14:24 @But my servant Caleb, because he had a different spirit in him, and has been true to me with all his heart, him I will take into that land into which he went, and his seed will have it for their heritage.

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

bbe@Numbers:14:34 @And as you went through the land viewing it for forty days, so for forty years, a year for every day, you will undergo punishment for your wrongdoing, and you will see that I am against you.

bbe@Numbers:14:36 @And the men whom Moses sent to see the land, and who, by the bad account they gave of the land, were the cause of the outcry the people made against Moses,

bbe@Numbers:14:38 @But Joshua, the son of Nun, and Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, of those who went to see the land, were not touched by disease.

bbe@Numbers:14:39 @And when Moses put these words before the children of Israel, the people were full of grief.

bbe@Numbers:14:40 @And early in the morning they got up and went to the top of the mountain, saying, We are here and we will go up to the place which the Lord said he would give us: for we have done wrong.

bbe@Numbers:14:44 @But they gave no attention to his words and went to the top of the mountain, though Moses and the ark of the Lord's agreement did not go out of the tent-circle.

bbe@Numbers:14:45 @Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites who were living in the hill-country, and overcame them completely, driving them back as far as Hormah.

bbe@Numbers:15:3 @And are going to make an offering by fire to the Lord, a burned offering or an offering in connection with an oath, or an offering freely given, or at your regular feasts, an offering for a sweet smell to the Lord, from the herd or the flock:

bbe@Numbers:15:7 @And for the drink offering give a third part of a hin of wine, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:15:10 @And for the drink offering: give half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:15:13 @All those who are Israelites by birth are to do these things in this way, when giving an offering made by fire of a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:15:14 @And if a man from another country or any other person living among you, through all your generations, has the desire to give an offering made by fire of a sweet smell to the Lord, let him do as you do.

bbe@Numbers:15:24 @Then, if the wrong is done in error, without the knowledge of the meeting of the people, let all the meeting give a young ox as a burned offering, a sweet smell to the Lord, with its meal offering and its drink offering, as is ordered in the law, together with a he-goat for a sin-offering.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:16:4 @And Moses, hearing this, went down on his face;

bbe@Numbers:16:12 @Then Moses sent for Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: and they said, We will not come up:

bbe@Numbers:16:14 @And more than this, you have not taken us into a land flowing with milk and honey, or given us a heritage of fields and vine-gardens: will you put out the eyes of these men? We will not come up.

bbe@Numbers:16:17 @And let every man take a vessel for burning perfumes, and put sweet spices in them; let every man take his vessel before the Lord, two hundred and fifty vessels; you and Aaron and everyone with his vessel.

bbe@Numbers:16:25 @So Moses got up and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the responsible men of Israel went with him.

bbe@Numbers:16:27 @So on every side they went away from the tent of Korah Dathan, and Abiram: and Dathan and Abiram came out to the door of their tents, with their wives and their sons and their little ones.

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

bbe@Numbers:16:32 @And the earth, opening her mouth, took them in, with their families, and all the men who were joined to Korah, and their goods.

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

bbe@Numbers:16:34 @And all Israel round about them went in flight at their cry, For fear, said they, that we go down into the heart of the earth.

bbe@Numbers:16:35 @Then fire came out from the Lord, burning up the two hundred and fifty men who were offering the perfume.

bbe@Numbers:16:39 @So Eleazar the priest took the brass vessels which had been offered by those who were burned up, and they were hammered out to make a cover for the altar:

bbe@Numbers:16:45 @Come out from among this people, so that I may send sudden destruction on them. And they went down on their faces.

bbe@Numbers:16:46 @And Moses said to Aaron, Take your vessel and put in it fire from the altar, and sweet spices, and take it quickly into the meeting of the people, and make them free from sin: for wrath has gone out from the Lord, and the disease is starting.

bbe@Numbers:16:47 @And at the words of Moses, Aaron took his vessel, and went running among the people; and even then the disease had made a start among them; and he put spices in his vessel to take away the sin of the people.

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

bbe@Numbers:16:49 @Now fourteen thousand, seven hundred deaths were caused by that disease, in addition to those who came to their end because of what Korah had done.

bbe@Numbers:16:50 @Then Aaron went back to Moses to the door of the Tent of meeting: and the disease came to a stop.

bbe@Numbers:17:2 @Say to the children of Israel that they are to give you rods, one for every family, for every chief, the head of his father's house, making twelve rods; let every man's name be placed on his rod.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:17:13 @Death will overtake everyone who comes near, who comes near the House of the Lord: are we all to come to destruction?

bbe@Numbers:18:16 @Payment is to be made for these when they are a month old, at the value fixed by you, a price of five shekels by the scale of the holy place, that is, twenty gerahs to the shekel.

bbe@Numbers:18:17 @But no such payment may be made for the first birth of an ox or a sheep or a goat; these are holy: their blood is to be dropped on the altar, and their fat burned for an offering made by fire, a sweet smell to the Lord.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:20:3 @And the people were angry with Moses and said, If only death had overtaken us when our brothers came to their death before the Lord!

bbe@Numbers:20:6 @Then Moses and Aaron went away from the people to the door of the Tent of meeting; and, falling on their faces there, they saw the glory of the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:20:10 @Then Moses and Aaron made the people come together in front of the rock, and he said to them, Give ear now, you people whose hearts are turned from the Lord; are we to get water for you out of the rock?

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

bbe@Numbers:20:14 @Then Moses sent men from Kadesh to the king of Edom to say to him, Your brother Israel says, You have knowledge of all the things we have been through;

bbe@Numbers:20:15 @How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we were living in Egypt for a long time; and the Egyptians were cruel to us and to our fathers:

bbe@Numbers:20:16 @And the Lord gave ear to the voice of our cry, and sent an angel and took us out of Egypt: and now we are in Kadesh, a town on the edge of your land;

bbe@Numbers:20:17 @Let us now go through your land: we will not go into field or vine-garden, or take the water of the springs; we will go by the highway, not turning to the right or to the left, till we have gone past the limits of your land.

bbe@Numbers:20:19 @And the children of Israel said to him, We will go up by the highway: and if we or our cattle take of your water, we will give you a price for it: only let us go through on our feet, nothing more.

bbe@Numbers:20:21 @So Edom would not let Israel go through his land; and Israel went in another direction.

bbe@Numbers:20:22 @And they went on from Kadesh, and came, with all their people, to Mount Hor.

bbe@Numbers:20:24 @Aaron will be put to rest with his people; he will not go into the land which I have given to the children of Israel, because you went against my word at the waters of Meribah.

bbe@Numbers:20:27 @So Moses did as the Lord had said, and before the eyes of all the people they went up Mount Hor.

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

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

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

bbe@Numbers:21:6 @Then the Lord sent poison-snakes among the people; and their bites were a cause of death to numbers of the people of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:21:7 @Then the people came to Moses and said, We have done wrong in crying out against the Lord and against you: make prayer to the Lord to take away the snakes from us. So Moses made prayer for the people.

bbe@Numbers:21:8 @And the Lord said to Moses, Make an image of a snake and put it on a rod, and anyone who has been wounded by the snakes, looking on it will be made well.

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

bbe@Numbers:21:10 @Then the children of Israel went on and put up their tents in Oboth.

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

bbe@Numbers:21:16 @From there they went on to Beer, the water-spring of which the Lord said to Moses, Make the people come together and I will give them water.

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

bbe@Numbers:21:22 @Let me go through your land: we will not go into field or vine-garden, or take the water of the springs; we will go by the highway till we have gone past the limits of your land.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:21:32 @And Moses sent men secretly to Jazer, and they took its towns, driving out the Amorites who were living there.

bbe@Numbers:21:33 @Then turning they went up by the way of Bashan; and Og, king of Bashan, went out against them with all his people, to the fight at Edrei.

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

bbe@Numbers:22:6 @Come now, in answer to my prayer, and put a curse on this people, for they are greater than I: and then I may be strong enough to overcome them and send them out of the land: for it is clear that good comes to him who has your blessing, but he on whom you put your curse is cursed.

bbe@Numbers:22:7 @So the responsible men of Moab and Midian went away, taking in their hands rewards for the prophet; and they came to Balaam and said to him what Balak had given them orders to say.

bbe@Numbers:22:8 @And he said to them, Take your rest here tonight, and I will give you an answer after hearing what the Lord says; so the chiefs of Moab kept there with Balaam that night.

bbe@Numbers:22:14 @So the chiefs of Moab went back to Balak and said, Balaam will not come with us.

bbe@Numbers:22:17 @For I will give you a place of very great honour, and whatever you say to me I will do; so come, in answer to my prayer, and put a curse on this people.

bbe@Numbers:22:18 @But Balaam, in answer; said to the servants of Balak, Even if Balak gave me his house full of silver and gold, it would not be possible for me to do anything more or less than the orders of the Lord my God.

bbe@Numbers:22:21 @So in the morning Balaam got up and, making his ass ready, went with the chiefs of Moab.

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

bbe@Numbers:22:23 @And the ass saw the angel of the Lord waiting in the road with his sword in his hand; and turning from the road, the ass went into the field; and Balaam gave the ass blows, to get her back on to the road.

bbe@Numbers:22:25 @And the ass saw the angel of the Lord, and went near the wall, crushing Balaam's foot against the wall; and he gave her more blows.

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

bbe@Numbers:22:27 @And the ass saw the angel of the Lord and went down on the earth under Balaam; and full of wrath, Balaam gave her hard blows with his stick.

bbe@Numbers:22:28 @Then the Lord gave the ass the power of talking, and opening her mouth she said to Balaam, What have I done to you that you have given me blows these three times?

bbe@Numbers:22:31 @Then the Lord made Balaam's eyes open, and he saw the angel of the Lord in the way with his sword in his hand: and he went down on his face to the earth.

bbe@Numbers:22:34 @And Balaam said to the angel of the Lord, I have done wrong, for I did not see that you were in the way against me: but now, if it is evil in your eyes, I will go back again.

bbe@Numbers:22:35 @And the angel of the Lord said to Balaam, Go with the men; but say only what I give you to say. Then Balaam went on with the chiefs of Balak.

bbe@Numbers:22:36 @Now Balak, hearing that Balaam had come, went to the chief town of Moab, on the edge of the Arnon, in the farthest part of the land, for the purpose of meeting him.

bbe@Numbers:22:38 @Then Balaam said to Balak, Now I have come to you; but have I power to say anything? Only what God puts into my mouth may I say.

bbe@Numbers:22:39 @And Balaam went with Balak to Kiriath-huzoth.

bbe@Numbers:22:40 @And Balak made offerings of oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam and the chiefs who were with him.

bbe@Numbers:23:3 @Then Balaam said to Balak, Take your place by your burned offering, and I will go and see if the Lord comes to me: and I will give you word of whatever he says to me. And he went to an open place on a hill.

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

bbe@Numbers:23:12 @And in answer he said, Am I not ordered to say only what the Lord puts into my mouth?

bbe@Numbers:23:20 @See, I have had orders to give blessing: and he has given a blessing which I have no power to take away.

bbe@Numbers:23:23 @No evil power has effect against Jacob, no secret arts against Israel; at the right time it will be said of Jacob and of Israel, See what God has done!

bbe@Numbers:23:26 @But Balaam in answer said to Balak, Did I not say to you, I may only do what the Lord says?

bbe@Numbers:24:6 @They are stretched out like valleys, like gardens by the riverside, like flowering trees planted by the Lord, like cedar-trees by the waters.

bbe@Numbers:24:15 @Then he went on with his story and said, These are the words of Balaam, the son of Beor, the words of him whose eyes are open:

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

bbe@Numbers:24:21 @And looking on the Kenites he went on with his story and said, Strong is your living-place, and your secret place is safe in the rock.

bbe@Numbers:24:23 @Then he went on with his story and said, But who may keep his life when God does this?

bbe@Numbers:24:25 @Then Balaam got up and went back to his place: and Balak went away.

bbe@Numbers:25:6 @Then one of the children of Israel came to his brothers, taking with him a woman of Midian, before the eyes of Moses and all the meeting of the people, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of meeting.

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

bbe@Numbers:25:9 @But twenty-four thousand of them had come to their death by the disease

bbe@Numbers:26:2 @Let all the children of Israel be numbered, by the names of their fathers' families, all those of twenty years old and over who are able to go to war in Israel.

bbe@Numbers:26:4 @Let all the people of twenty years old and over be numbered, as the Lord has given orders to Moses and the children of Israel who have come out of Egypt.

bbe@Numbers:26:10 @And they went down into the open mouth of the earth, together with Korah, when death overtook him and all his band; at the time when two hundred and fifty men were burned in the fire, and they became a sign.

bbe@Numbers:26:14 @These are the families of the Simeonites, twenty-two thousand, two hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:18 @These are the families of the sons of Gad as they were numbered, forty thousand, five hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:20 @And the sons of Judah by their families were: of Shelah, the family of the Shelahites: of Perez, the family of the Perezites: of Zerah, the family of the Zerahites.

bbe@Numbers:26:21 @And the sons of Perez were: of Hezron, the family of the Hezronites: of Hamul, the family of the Hamulites.

bbe@Numbers:26:22 @These are the families of Judah as they were numbered, seventy-six thousand, five hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:25 @These are the families of Issachar, as they were numbered, sixty-four thousand, three hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:27 @These are the families of the Zebulunites as they were numbered, sixty thousand, five hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:33 @And Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, had no sons, but only daughters, and the names of the daughters of Zelophehad were Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

bbe@Numbers:26:34 @These are the families of Manasseh; and those who were numbered of them were fifty-two thousand, seven hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:37 @These are the families of Ephraim as they were numbered, thirty-two thousand, five hundred. These are the sons of Joseph by their families.

bbe@Numbers:26:40 @And the sons of Bela were Ard and Naaman: of Ard, the family of the Ardites: of Naaman, the family of the Naamites.

bbe@Numbers:26:41 @These are the sons of Benjamin by their families: and those who were numbered of them were forty-five thousand, six hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:43 @All the families of the Shuhamites, as they were numbered, were sixty-four thousand, four hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:47 @These are the families of the sons of Asher as they were numbered, fifty-three thousand, four hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:50 @These are the families of Naphtali by their families: and those who were numbered of them were forty-five thousand, four hundred.

bbe@Numbers:26:51 @Those who were numbered of the children of Israel were six hundred and one thousand, seven hundred and thirty.

bbe@Numbers:26:56 @As it is ordered by the decision of the Lord, let distribution be made between those who are more in number and those who are less.

bbe@Numbers:26:57 @These were those of the Levites who were numbered by their families: of Gershon, the family of the Gershonites: of Kohath, the family of the Kohathites: of Merari, the family of the Merarites.

bbe@Numbers:26:60 @Aaron's sons were Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

bbe@Numbers:26:62 @Of these, twenty-three thousand males, from one month old and over, were numbered: they were not numbered with the rest of the children of Israel, for they had no heritage among the children of Israel.

bbe@Numbers:26:63 @All these were numbered by Moses and Eleazar the priest when the children of Israel were numbered in the lowlands of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.

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

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

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

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

bbe@Numbers:28:2 @Give orders to the children of Israel and say to them, Let it be your care to give me my offerings at their regular times, the food of the offerings made by fire to me for a sweet smell.

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

bbe@Numbers:28:8 @Let the other lamb be offered at evening; like the meal offering of the morning and its drink offering, let it be offered as an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:28:13 @And a separate tenth part of the best meal mixed with oil for a meal offering for every lamb; for a burned offering of a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:28:24 @In this way, every day for seven days, give the food of the offering made by fire, a sweet smell to the Lord: it is to be offered in addition to the regular burned offering, and its drink offering.

bbe@Numbers:28:26 @And at the time of the first-fruits, when you give an offering of new meal to the Lord at your feast of weeks, there is to be a holy meeting: you may do no field-work:

bbe@Numbers:28:27 @And give a burned offering for a sweet smell to the Lord; two oxen, one male sheep, and seven he-lambs of the first year;

bbe@Numbers:29:2 @And give to the Lord a burned offering for a sweet smell; one ox, one male sheep, seven he-lambs of the first year, without any mark on them:

bbe@Numbers:29:6 @In addition to the burned offering of the new moon, and its meal offering, and the regular burned offering and its meal offering, and their drink offerings, as they are ordered, for a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:29:8 @And give to the Lord a burned offering for a sweet smell; one ox, one male sheep, seven he-lambs of the first year: only those without any mark on them may be used:

bbe@Numbers:29:13 @And give a burned offering, an offering made by fire of a sweet smell to the Lord, thirteen oxen, two male sheep, fourteen he-lambs of the first year, all without any mark on them;

bbe@Numbers:29:17 @On the second day of the feast give an offering of twelve oxen, two male sheep, fourteen he-lambs of the first year, without any mark on them;

bbe@Numbers:29:36 @And give a burned offering, an offering made by fire of a sweet smell to the Lord: one ox, one male sheep, seven he-lambs of the first year, without any mark:

bbe@Numbers:31:5 @So from the thousands of Israel a thousand were taken from every tribe, twelve thousand men armed for war.

bbe@Numbers:31:11 @They went away with the goods they had taken, man and beast.

bbe@Numbers:31:13 @Then Moses and Eleazar the priest and the chiefs of the people went out to them before they had come into the tent-circle.

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

bbe@Numbers:31:27 @And let division be made of it into two parts, one for the men of war who went out to the fight, and one for all the people:

bbe@Numbers:31:28 @And from the men of war who went out let there be offered to the Lord one out of every five hundred, from the persons, and from the oxen and asses and sheep:

bbe@Numbers:31:32 @Now the beasts taken, in addition to what the fighting-men took for themselves, were six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep,

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

bbe@Numbers:31:50 @And we have here an offering for the Lord from what every man took in the war, ornaments of gold, leg-chains and arm-rings, finger-rings, ear-rings, and neck-ornaments, to make our souls free from sin before the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:32:9 @For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they took from the children of Israel the desire to go into the land which the Lord had given them.

bbe@Numbers:32:11 @Truly, not one of the men of twenty years old and over who came out of Egypt will see the land which I gave by oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; because they have not been true to me with all their heart;

bbe@Numbers:32:16 @Then they came to him, and said, We will make safe places for our cattle here, and towns for our little ones;

bbe@Numbers:32:17 @But we ourselves will be ready armed to go before the children of Israel till we have taken them to their place: but our little ones will be safe in the walled towns against the people of the land.

bbe@Numbers:32:18 @We will not come back to our houses till every one of the children of Israel has come into his heritage.

bbe@Numbers:32:19 @For we will not have our heritage with them on the other side of Jordan and forward; because our heritage has come to us on this side of Jordan to the east.

bbe@Numbers:32:31 @Then the children of Gad and the children of Reuben said, As the Lord has said to your servants, so will we do.

bbe@Numbers:32:32 @We will go over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, and you will give us our heritage on this side of Jordan.

bbe@Numbers:32:34 @And the children of Gad were the builders of Dibon and Ataroth and Aroer;

bbe@Numbers:32:37 @And the children of Reuben were the builders of Heshbon and Elealeh and Kiriathaim;

bbe@Numbers:32:39 @And the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, went to Gilead and took it, driving out the Amorites who were living there.

bbe@Numbers:32:41 @And Jair, the son of Manasseh, went and took the towns of Gilead, naming them Havvoth-Jair.

bbe@Numbers:32:42 @And Nobah went and took Kenath and its small towns, naming it Nobah, after himself.

bbe@Numbers:33:1 @These are the journeys of the children of Israel, when they went out of the land of Egypt in their armies, under the direction of Moses and Aaron.

bbe@Numbers:33:2 @And the stages of their journey on their way out were put down in writing by Moses at the order of the Lord: these are the stages of their journey and the way they went.

bbe@Numbers:33:3 @On the fifteenth day of the first month they went out from Rameses; on the day after the Passover the children of Israel went out by the power of the Lord before the eyes of all the Egyptians,

bbe@Numbers:33:4 @While the Egyptians were placing in the earth the bodies of their sons on whom the Lord had sent destruction: and their gods had been judged by him.

bbe@Numbers:33:5 @So the children of Israel went from Rameses and put up their tents in Succoth.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:33:9 @And from Marah they went on to Elim: and in Elim there were twelve water-springs and seventy palm-trees; and they put up their tents there.

bbe@Numbers:33:10 @And they went on from Elim and put up their tents by the Red Sea.

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

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

bbe@Numbers:33:13 @And they went on from Dophkah, and put up their tents in Alush.

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

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

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

bbe@Numbers:33:17 @And they went on from Kibroth-hattaavah, and put up their tents in Hazeroth.

bbe@Numbers:33:18 @And they went on from Hazeroth, and put up their tents in Rithmah.

bbe@Numbers:33:19 @And they went on from Rithmah, and put up their tents in Rimmon-perez.

bbe@Numbers:33:20 @And they went on from Rimmon-perez, and put up their tents in Libnah.

bbe@Numbers:33:21 @And they went on from Libnah, and put up their tents in Rissah.

bbe@Numbers:33:22 @And they went on from Rissah, and put up their tents in Kehelathah.

bbe@Numbers:33:23 @And they went on from Kehelathah, and put up their tents in Mount Shepher.

bbe@Numbers:33:24 @And they went on from Mount Shepher, and put up their tents in Haradah.

bbe@Numbers:33:25 @And they went on from Haradah, and put up their tents in Makheloth.

bbe@Numbers:33:26 @And they went on from Makheloth, and put up their tents in Tahath.

bbe@Numbers:33:27 @And they went on from Tahath, and put up their tents in Terah.

bbe@Numbers:33:28 @And they went on from Terah, and put up their tents in Mithkah.

bbe@Numbers:33:29 @And they went on from Mithkah, and put up their tents in Hashmonah.

bbe@Numbers:33:30 @And they went on from Hashmonah, and put up their tents in Moseroth.

bbe@Numbers:33:31 @And they went on from Moseroth, and put up their tents in Bene-jaakan.

bbe@Numbers:33:32 @And they went on from Bene-jaakan, and put up their tents in Hor-haggidgad.

bbe@Numbers:33:33 @And they went on from Hor-haggidgad, and put up their tents in Jotbathah.

bbe@Numbers:33:34 @And they went on from Jotbathah, and put up their tents in Abronah.

bbe@Numbers:33:35 @And they went on from Abronah, and put up their tents in Ezion-geber.

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

bbe@Numbers:33:37 @And they went on from Kadesh, and put up their tents in Mount Hor, on the edge of the land of Edom.

bbe@Numbers:33:38 @And Aaron the priest went up into the mountain at the order of the Lord, and came to his death there, in the fortieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fifth month, on the first day of the month.

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

bbe@Numbers:33:41 @And from Mount Hor they went on, and put up their tents in Zalmonah.

bbe@Numbers:33:42 @And they went on from Zalmonah, and put up their tents in Punon.

bbe@Numbers:33:43 @And they went on from Punon, and put up their tents in Oboth.

bbe@Numbers:33:44 @And they went on from Oboth, and put up their tents in Iye-abarim at the edge of Moab.

bbe@Numbers:33:45 @And they went on from Iyim, and put up their tents in Dibon-gad.

bbe@Numbers:33:46 @And from Dibon-gad they went on, and put up their tents in Almon-diblathaim.

bbe@Numbers:33:47 @And from Almon-diblathaim they went on, and put up their tents in the mountains of Abarim, before Nebo.

bbe@Numbers:33:48 @And they went on from the mountains of Abarim, and put up their tents in the lowlands of Moab by Jordan at Jericho;

bbe@Numbers:34:6 @And for your limit on the west you will have the Great Sea and its edge: this will be your limit on the west.

bbe@Numbers:35:5 @The measure of this space of land is to be two thousand cubits outside the town on the east, and two thousand cubits on the south and on the west and on the north, the town being in the middle. This space will be the outskirts of their towns.

bbe@Numbers:35:24 @Then let the meeting of the people be judge between the man responsible for the death and him who has the right of punishment for blood, acting by these rules:

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:12 @How is it possible for me by myself to be responsible for you, and undertake the weight of all your troubles and your arguments?

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:14 @And you made answer and said to me, It is good for us to do as you say.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:16 @And at that time I gave orders to your judges, saying, Let all questions between your brothers come before you for hearing, and give decisions uprightly between a man and his brother or one from another nation who is with him.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:17 @In judging, do not let a man's position have any weight with you; give hearing equally to small and great; have no fear of any man, for it is God who is judge: and any cause in which you are not able to give a decision, you are to put before me and I will give it a hearing.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:18 @And at that time I gave you all the orders which you were to do.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:22 @And you came near to me, every one of you, and said, Let us send men before us to go through the land with care and give us an account of the way we are to go and the towns to which we will come.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:23 @And what you said seemed good to me, and I took twelve men from among you, one from every tribe;

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:28 @Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our hearts feeble with fear by saying, The people are greater and taller than we are, and the towns are great and walled up to heaven; and more than this, we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:41 @Then you said to me, We have done evil against the Lord, we will go up to the attack, as the Lord our God has given us orders. And arming yourselves every one, you made ready to go up without care into the hill-country.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:43 @This I said to you, but you gave no attention and went against the orders of the Lord, and in your pride went up into the hill-country.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:44 @And the Amorites who were in the hill-country came out against you and put you to flight, rushing after you like bees, and overcame you in Seir, driving you even as far as Hormah.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:45 @And you came back, weeping before the Lord; but the Lord gave no attention to your cries and did not give ear to you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:46 @So you were kept waiting in Kadesh for a long time.

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

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:10 @(In the past the Emim were living there; a great people, equal in numbers to the Anakim and as tall;

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:12 @And the Horites in earlier times were living in Seir, but the children of Esau took their place; they sent destruction on them and took their land for themselves, as Israel did to the land of his heritage which the Lord gave them.)

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:13 @Get up now, and go over the stream Zered. So we went over the stream Zered.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:14 @Thirty-eight years had gone by from the time when we came away from Kadesh-barnea till we went over the stream Zered; by that time all the generation of the men of war among us were dead, as the Lord had said.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:20 @(That land is said to have been a land of the Rephaim, for Rephaim had been living there in earlier times, but they were named Zamzummim by the Ammonites;

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:21 @They were a great people, tall as the Anakim, and equal to them in number; but the Lord sent destruction on them and the children of Ammon took their place, living in their land;

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:33 @And the Lord our God gave him into our hands; and we overcame him and his sons and all his people.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:34 @At that time we took all his towns, and gave them over to complete destruction, together with men, women, and children; we had no mercy on any:

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:35 @Only the cattle we took for ourselves, with the goods from the towns we had taken.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:37 @But you did not go near the land of the children of Ammon, that is, all the side of the river Jabbok or the towns of the hill-country, wherever the Lord our God had said we were not to go.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:1 @Then turning we took the road to Bashan: and Og, king of Bashan, came out against us with all his people, and made an attack on us at Edrei.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:3 @So the Lord our God gave up Og, king of Bashan, and all his people into our hands; and we overcame him so completely that all his people came to their end in the fight.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:5 @All these towns had high walls round them with doors and locks; and in addition we took a great number of unwalled towns.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:6 @And we put them to the curse, every town together with men, women, and children.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:7 @But we took for ourselves all the cattle and the stored wealth of the towns.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:8 @At that time we took their land from the two kings of the Amorites on the far side of Jordan, from the valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon;

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:12 @And this land which we took at that time, from Aroer by the valley of the Arnon, and half the hill-country of Gilead with its towns, I gave to the Reubenites and the Gadites.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:17 @As well as the Arabah, with the river Jordan as their limit, from Chinnereth to the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah to the east.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:24 @O Lord God, you have now for the first time let your servant see your great power and the strength of your hand; for what god is there in heaven or on earth able to do such great works and such acts of power?

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:27 @Go up to the top of Pisgah, and turning your eyes to the west and the north, to the south and the east, see the land with your eyes: for you are not to go over Jordan.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:29 @So we were waiting in the valley facing Beth-peor.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:3 @Your eyes have seen what the Lord did because of Baal-peor: for destruction came from the Lord on all those among you who went after Baal-peor.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:7 @For what great nation has a god so near to them as the Lord our God is, whenever we are turned to him in prayer?

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:10 @That day when you were waiting before the Lord your God in Horeb, and the Lord said to me, Make all the people come together, so that hearing my words they may go in fear of me all the days of their life on earth and give this teaching to their children

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:13 @And he gave you his agreement with you, the ten rules which you were to keep, which he put in writing on the two stones of the law.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:28 @There you will be the servants of gods, made by men's hands, of wood and stone, having no power of seeing or hearing or taking food or smelling.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:37 @And because of his love for your fathers, he took their seed and made it his, and he himself, present among you, took you out of Egypt by his great power;

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:40 @Then keep his laws and his orders which I give you today, so that it may be well for you and for your children after you, and that your lives may be long in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for ever.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:47 @And they took his land for a heritage, and the land of Og, king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, whose lands were on the other side of Jordan to the east;

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:14 @But the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; on that day do no work, you or your son or your daughter, or your man-servant or your woman-servant, or your ox or your ass or any of your cattle, or the man from a strange country who is living among you; so that your man-servant and your woman-servant may have rest as well as you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:15 @And keep in mind that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord your God took you out of that land by his strong hand and his stretched-out arm: for this reason the Lord has given you orders to keep the Sabbath day.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:16 @Give honour to your father and your mother, as you have been ordered by the Lord your God; so that your life may be long and all may be well for you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:24 @And said, The Lord has let us see his glory and his power, and his voice has come to us out of the fire: today we have seen that a man may go on living even after hearing the voice of God.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:25 @Why then is death to be our fate? For if the voice of the Lord our God comes to us any more, death will overtake us, and we will be burned up in this great fire.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:26 @For what man is there in all the earth, who, hearing the voice of the living God as we have, out of the heart of the fire, has been kept from death?

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:27 @Do you go near: and after hearing everything which the Lord our God has to say, give us an account of all he has said to you, and we will give ear, and do it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:28 @Then the Lord, hearing your words to me, said to me, The words which this people have said to you have come to my ears: what they have said is well said.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:29 @If only they had such a heart in them at all times, so that they might go in fear of me and keep my orders and that it might be well for them and for their children for ever!

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:33 @Go on walking in the way ordered for you by the Lord your God, so that life may be yours and it may be well for you, and your days may be long in the land of your heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:3 @So give ear, O Israel, and take care to do this; so that it may be well for you, and you may be greatly increased, as the Lord the God of your fathers has given you his word, in a land flowing with milk and honey.

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:10 @And when the Lord your God has taken you into the land which he gave his oath to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, that he would give you; with great and fair towns which were not of your building;

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:18 @And do what is upright and good in the eyes of the Lord your God, so that it may be well for you and you may go in and take for your heritage that good land from which the Lord undertook by an oath to your fathers,

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:21 @Then you will say to your son, We were servants under Pharaoh's yoke in Egypt; and the Lord took us out of Egypt with a strong hand:

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:24 @And the Lord gave us orders to keep all these laws, in the fear of the Lord our God, so that it might be well for us for ever, and that he might keep us from death, as he has done to this day.

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:25 @And it will be our righteousness if we take care to keep all this order before the Lord our God as he has given it to us.

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:7 @The Lord did not give you his love or take you for himself because you were more in number than any other people; for you were the smallest of the nations:

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:17 @If you say in your hearts, These nations are greater in number than we are: how are we to take their land from them?

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:18 @Have no fear of them, but keep well in mind what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt;

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:23 @But the Lord your God will give them up into your hands, overpowering them till their destruction is complete.

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:13 @And when your herds and your flocks are increased, and your stores of silver and gold, and you have wealth of every sort;

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:17 @Say not then, in your hearts, My power and the strength of my hands have got me this wealth.

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:18 @But keep in mind the Lord your God: for it is he who gives you the power to get wealth, so that he may give effect to the agreement which he made by his oath with your fathers, as at this day

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:10 @And the Lord gave me the two stones with writing on them done by the finger of God: on them were recorded all the words which the Lord said to you on the mountain out of the heart of the fire, on the day of the great meeting.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:17 @And I let the stones go from my hands, and they were broken before your eyes.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:18 @And I went down on my face before the Lord, as at the first, for forty days and forty nights, without taking food or drinking water, because of all your sin, in doing evil in the eyes of the Lord and moving him to wrath.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:23 @And when the Lord sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and take the land which I have given you; you went against the orders of the Lord your God, and had no faith in him, and would not give ear to his voice.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:25 @So I went down on my face in prayer before the Lord for forty days and forty nights as I did at first; because the Lord had said that he would put an end to you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:26 @And I made prayer to the Lord and said, O Lord God, do not send destruction on your people and your heritage, to whom, by your great power, you have given salvation, whom you have taken out of Egypt by the strength of your hand.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:29 @But still they are your people and your heritage, whom you took out by your great power and by your stretched-out arm.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:2 @And I will put on the stones the words which were on the first stones which were broken by you, and you are to put them into the ark.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:3 @So I made an ark of hard wood, and had two stones cut like the others, and went up the mountain with the stones in my hands.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:7 @From there they went on to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of streams of water.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:17 @For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, strong in power and greatly to be feared, who has no respect for any man's position and takes no rewards:

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:19 @So be kind to the man from a strange country who is living among you, for you yourselves were living in a strange country in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:21 @He is your God, the God of your praise, your God who has done for you all these works of power which your eyes have seen.

bbe@Deuteronomy:10:22 @Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now the Lord your God has made you like the stars of heaven in number.

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:2 @And be certain in your minds this day; for these words are not said to your children, who have had no experience of the training of the Lord your God, and who have not seen his great power or his strong hand and his stretched-out arm,

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:4 @And what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses and their war-carriages; how he made the waters of the Red Sea come up over them when they went after you, and how the Lord put an end to them even to this day;

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:11:30 @Are they not on the other side of Jordan, looking west, in the land of the Canaanites living in the Arabah, opposite Gilgal, by the holy tree of Moreh?

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:8 @You are not to do things then in the way in which we now do them here, every man as it seems right to him:

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:25 @Do not take it for food; so that it may be well for you and for your children after you, while you do what is right in the eyes of the Lord.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:28 @Take note of all these orders I am giving you and give attention to them, so that it may be well for you and for your children after you for ever, while you do what is good and right in the eyes of the Lord your God.

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:5 @And that prophet or that dreamer of dreams is to be put to death; for his words were said with the purpose of turning you away from the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt and made you free from the prison-house; and of forcing you out of the way in which the Lord your God has given you orders to go. So you are to put away the evil from among you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:14 @But give him freely from your flock and from your grain and your wine: in the measure of the wealth which the Lord your God has given you, you are to give to him.

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:15 @And keep in mind that you yourself were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God made you free: so I give you this order today.

bbe@Deuteronomy:16:9 @Let seven weeks be numbered from the first day when the grain is cut.

bbe@Deuteronomy:16:10 @Then keep the feast of weeks to the Lord your God, with an offering freely given to him from the wealth he has given you:

bbe@Deuteronomy:16:12 @And you will keep in mind that you were a servant in the land of Egypt: and you will take care to keep all these laws.

bbe@Deuteronomy:16:16 @Three times in the year let all your males come before the Lord your God in the place named by him; at the feast of unleavened bread, the feast of weeks, and the feast of tents: and they are not to come before the Lord with nothing in their hands;

bbe@Deuteronomy:17:17 @And he is not to have a great number of wives, for fear that his heart may be turned away; or great wealth of silver and gold.

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:16 @In answer to the request you made to the Lord your God in Horeb on the day of the great meeting, when you said, Let not the voice of the Lord my God come to my ears again, and let me not see this great fire any more, or death will overtake me.

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:17 @Then the Lord said to me, What they have said is well said.

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:21 @And if you say in your hearts, How are we to be certain that the word does not come from the Lord?

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:22 @When a prophet makes a statement in the name of the Lord, if what he says does not take place and his words do not come true, then his word is not the word of the Lord: the words of the prophet were said in the pride of his heart, and you are to have no fear of him.

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:13 @Have no pity on him, so that Israel may be clear from the crime of putting a man to death without cause, and it will be well for you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:17 @Then the two men, between whom the argument has taken place, are to come before the Lord, before the priests and judges who are then in power;

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:11 @And if it gives you back an answer of peace, opening its doors to you, then all the people in it may be put to forced work as your servants.

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:12 @If however it will not make peace with you, but war, then let it be shut in on all sides:

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:14 @But the women and the children and the cattle and everything in the town and all its wealth, you may take for yourselves: the wealth of your haters, which the Lord your God has given you, will be your food.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:7 @See that you let the mother bird go, but the young ones you may take; so it will be well for you and your life will be long.

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:9 @Do not have your vine-garden planted with two sorts of seed: or all of it may become a loss, the seed you have put in as well as the increase.

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:22 @If a man is taken in the act of going in to a married woman, the two of them, the man as well as the woman, are to be put to death: so you are to put away the evil from Israel.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:23:6 @Do nothing for their peace or well-being for ever.

bbe@Deuteronomy:23:7 @But have no hate for an Edomite, because he is your brother, or for an Egyptian, for you were living in his land.

bbe@Deuteronomy:24:18 @But keep in mind that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God made you free: for this is why I give you orders to do this.

bbe@Deuteronomy:24:22 @Keep in mind that you were a servant in the land of Egypt: for this is why I give you orders to do this.

bbe@Deuteronomy:25:1 @If there is an argument between men and they go to law with one another, let the judges give their decision for the upright, and against the wrongdoer.

bbe@Deuteronomy:25:13 @Do not have in your bag different weights, a great and a small;

bbe@Deuteronomy:25:15 @But have a true weight and a true measure: so that your life may be long in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

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

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:26:6 @And the Egyptians were cruel to us, crushing us under a hard yoke:

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:26:8 @And the Lord took us out of Egypt with a strong hand and a stretched-out arm, with works of power and signs and wonders:

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:7 @By the power of the Lord, those who take arms against you will be overcome before you: they will come out against you one way, and will go in flight from you seven ways.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:12 @Opening his store-house in heaven, the Lord will send rain on your land at the right time, blessing all the work of your hands: other nations will make use of your wealth, and you will have no need of theirs.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:27 @The Lord will send on you the disease of Egypt, and other sorts of skin diseases which nothing will make well.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:29 @You will go feeling your way when the sun is high, like a blind man for whom all is dark, and nothing will go well for you: you will be crushed and made poor for ever, and you will have no saviour.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:35 @The Lord will send a skin disease, attacking your knees and your legs, bursting out from your feet to the top of your head, so that nothing will make you well.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:43 @The man from a strange land who is living among you will be lifted up higher and higher over you, while you go down lower and lower.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:44 @He will let you have his wealth at interest, and will have no need of yours: he will be the head and you the tail.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:47 @Because you did not give honour to the Lord your God, worshipping him gladly, with joy in your hearts on account of all your wealth of good things;

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:60 @He will send on you again all the diseases of Egypt, which were a cause of fear to you, and they will take you in their grip.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:62 @And you will become a very small band, though your numbers were like the stars of heaven; because you did not give ear to the voice of the Lord your God.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:7 @When you came to this place, Sihon, king of Heshbon, and Og, king of Bashan, came out to make war against us and we overcame them:

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:8 @And we took their land and gave it to the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, for their heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:9 @So keep the words of this agreement and do them, so that it may be well for you in everything you do.

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:15 @But with everyone who is here with us today before the Lord our God, as well as with those who are not here:

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:16 @(For you have in mind how we were living in the land of Egypt; and how we came through all the nations which were on your way;

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:17 @And you have seen their disgusting doings, and the images of wood and stone and silver and gold which were among them:)

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:26 @And they went after other gods and gave them worship, gods who were strange to them, and whom he had not given them:

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:29 @The secret things are the Lord our God's: but the things which have been made clear are ours and our children's for ever, so that we may do all the words of this law.

bbe@Deuteronomy:30:5 @Placing you again in the land of your fathers as your heritage; and he will do you good, increasing you till you are more in number than your fathers were.

bbe@Deuteronomy:30:12 @They are not in heaven, for you to say, Who will go up to heaven for us and give us knowledge of them so that we may do them?

bbe@Deuteronomy:30:13 @And they are not across the sea, for you to say, Who will go over the sea for us and give us news of them so that we may do them?

bbe@Deuteronomy:31:2 @Then he said to them, I am now a hundred and twenty years old; I am no longer able to go out and come in: and the Lord has said to me, You are not to go over Jordan.

bbe@Deuteronomy:31:14 @At that time the Lord said to Moses, The day of your death is near: send for Joshua, and come to the Tent of meeting so that I may give him his orders. So Moses and Joshua went to the Tent of meeting.

bbe@Deuteronomy:31:25 @Moses said to the Levites who were responsible for taking up the ark of the Lord's agreement,

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:2 @My teaching is dropping like rain, coming down like dew on the fields; like rain on the young grass and showers on the garden plants:

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:6 @Is this your answer to the Lord, O foolish people and unwise? Is he not your father who has given you life? He has made you and given you your place.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:9 @For the Lord's wealth is his people; Jacob is the land of his heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:17 @They made offerings to evil spirits which were not God, to gods who were strange to them, which had newly come up, not feared by your fathers.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:23 @I will send a rain of troubles on them, my arrows will be showered on them

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:36 @For the Lord will be judge of his people, he will have pity for his servants; when he sees that their power is gone, there is no one, shut up or free.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:39 @See now, I myself am he; there is no other god but me: giver of death and life, wounding and making well: and no one has power to make you free from my hand.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:8 @And of Levi he said, Give your Thummim to Levi and let the Urim be with your loved one, whom you put to the test at Massah, with whom you were angry at the waters of Meribah;

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:12 @And of Benjamin he said, Benjamin is the loved one of the Lord, he will be kept safe at all times; he will be covered by the Most High, resting between his arms.

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:19 @They will send out the word for the people to come to the mountain, taking there the offerings of righteousness: for the store of the seas will be theirs, and the secret wealth of the sand.

bbe@Deuteronomy:33:24 @And of Asher he said, Let Asher have the blessing of children; may he be pleasing to his brothers, and let his foot be wet with oil.

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:1 @And Moses went up from the table-lands of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah which is facing Jericho. And the Lord let him see all the land, the land of Gilead as far as Dan;

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:2 @And all Naphtali and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, as far as the Great Sea of the west;

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

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:8 @For thirty days the children of Israel were weeping for Moses in the table-lands of Moab, till the days of weeping and sorrow for Moses were ended.

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:12 @And in all the acts of power and fear which Moses did before the eyes of all Israel.

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

bbe@Joshua:1:7 @Only take heart and be very strong; take care to do all the law which Moses my servant gave you, not turning from it to the right hand or to the left, so that you may do well in all your undertakings.

bbe@Joshua:1:8 @Let this book of the law be ever on your lips and in your thoughts day and night, so that you may keep with care everything in it; then a blessing will be on all your way, and you will do well.

bbe@Joshua:1:10 @Then Joshua gave their orders to those who were in authority over the people, saying,

bbe@Joshua:1:16 @Then they said to Joshua in answer, Whatever you say to us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.

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

bbe@Joshua:2:1 @Then Joshua, the son of Nun, sent two men from Shittim secretly, with the purpose of searching out the land, and Jericho. So they went and came to the house of a loose woman of the town, named Rahab, where they took their rest for the night.

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

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

bbe@Joshua:2:8 @And before the men went to rest, she came up to them on the roof,

bbe@Joshua:2:10 @For we have had news of how the Lord made the Red Sea dry before you when you came out of Egypt; and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites, on the other side of Jordan, to Sihon and Og, whom you gave up to the curse.

bbe@Joshua:2:14 @And the men said to her, Our life for yours if you keep our business secret; and when the Lord has given us the land, we will keep faith and be kind to you.

bbe@Joshua:2:17 @And the men said to her, We will only be responsible for this oath which you have made us take,

bbe@Joshua:2:18 @If, when we come into the land, you put this cord of bright red thread in the window from which you let us down; and get your father and mother and your brothers and all your family into the house;

bbe@Joshua:2:19 @Then if anyone goes out of your house into the street, his blood will be on his head, we will not be responsible; but if any damage comes to anyone in the house, his blood will be on our heads.

bbe@Joshua:2:20 @But if you say anything about our business here, then we will be free from the oath you have made us take.

bbe@Joshua:2:21 @And she said, Let it be as you say. Then she sent them away, and they went; and she put the bright red cord in the window.

bbe@Joshua:2:22 @And they went into the hill-country and were there three days, till the men who had gone after them had come back; and those who went after them were searching for them everywhere without coming across them.

bbe@Joshua:2:23 @Then the two men came down from the hill-country and went over and came back to Joshua, the son of Nun; and they gave him a complete account of what had taken place.

bbe@Joshua:3:1 @Then Joshua got up early in the morning, and, moving on from Shittim, he and all the children of Israel came to Jordan and were there for the night before going over.

bbe@Joshua:3:2 @And at the end of three days, the men in authority over the people went through the tents,

bbe@Joshua:3:4 @But let there be a space between you and it of about two thousand cubits: come no nearer to it, so that you may see the way you have to go, for you have not been over this way before.

bbe@Joshua:3:6 @Then Joshua said to the priests, Take up the ark of the agreement and go over in front of the people. So they took up the ark of the agreement and went in front of the people.

bbe@Joshua:3:12 @So take twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, a man from every tribe.

bbe@Joshua:3:14 @So when the people went out from their tents to go over Jordan, the priests who took up the ark of the agreement were in front of the people;

bbe@Joshua:3:15 @And when those who took up the ark came to Jordan, and the feet of the priests who took up the ark were touching the edge of the water (for the waters of Jordan are overflowing all through the time of the grain-cutting),

bbe@Joshua:3:16 @Then the waters flowing down from higher up were stopped and came together in a mass a long way back at Adam, a town near Zarethan; and the waters flowing down to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, were cut off: and the people went across opposite Jericho.

bbe@Joshua:3:17 @And the priests who took up the ark of the agreement of the Lord kept their places, with their feet on dry land in the middle of Jordan, while all Israel went over on dry land, till all the nation had gone over Jordan.

bbe@Joshua:4:2 @Take twelve men from the people, a man for every tribe,

bbe@Joshua:4:3 @And say to them, Take up from the middle of Jordan, from the place where the feet of the priests were resting, twelve stones, and take them over with you and put them down in the place where you take your rest tonight.

bbe@Joshua:4:4 @So Joshua sent for the twelve men, whom he had ready, one man out of every tribe of the children of Israel,

bbe@Joshua:4:7 @Then you will say to them, Because the waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the Lord's agreement; when it went over Jordan the waters of Jordan were cut off: and these stones will be a sign for the children of Israel, keeping it in their memory for ever.

bbe@Joshua:4:8 @So the children of Israel did as Joshua gave them orders, and took twelve stones from the middle of Jordan, as the Lord had said to Joshua, one for every tribe of the children of Israel; these they took across with them to their night's resting-place and put them down there.

bbe@Joshua:4:9 @And Joshua put up twelve stones in the middle of Jordan, where the feet of the priests who took up the ark of the agreement had been placed: and there they are to this day.

bbe@Joshua:4:10 @For the priests who took up the ark kept there in the middle of Jordan till all the orders given to Joshua by Moses from the Lord had been done: then the people went over quickly

bbe@Joshua:4:11 @And when all the people had come to the other side, the ark of the Lord went over, and the priests, before the eyes of the people.

bbe@Joshua:4:12 @And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh went over armed before the children of Israel as Moses had said to them:

bbe@Joshua:4:13 @About forty thousand armed for war went over before the Lord to the fight, to the lowlands of Jericho.

bbe@Joshua:4:14 @That day the Lord made Joshua great in the eyes of all Israel; and all the days of his life they went in fear of him, as they had gone in fear of Moses.

bbe@Joshua:4:18 @And when the priests who took up the ark of the Lord's agreement came up out of Jordan and their feet came out on to dry land, the waters of Jordan went back to their place, overflowing its edges as before.

bbe@Joshua:4:20 @And the twelve stones which they took out of Jordan, Joshua put up in Gilgal.

bbe@Joshua:4:23 @For the Lord your God made the waters of Jordan dry before you till you had gone across, as he did to the Red Sea, drying it up before us till we had gone across:

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

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

bbe@Joshua:5:7 @And their children, who came up in their place, now underwent circumcision by the hands of Joshua, not having had it before: for there had been no circumcision on the journey.

bbe@Joshua:5:8 @So when all the nation had undergone circumcision, they kept in their tents till they were well again.

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

bbe@Joshua:6:8 @So after Joshua had said this to the people, the seven priests with their seven horns went forward before the Lord, blowing on their horns: and the ark of the Lord's agreement went after them.

bbe@Joshua:6:9 @And the armed men went before the priests who were blowing the horns, and the mass of the people went after the ark, blowing their horns.

bbe@Joshua:6:11 @So he made the ark of the Lord go all round the town once: then they went back to the tents for the night.

bbe@Joshua:6:13 @And the seven priests with their seven horns went on before the ark of the Lord, blowing their horns: the armed men went before them, and the mass of the people went after the ark of the Lord, blowing their horns.

bbe@Joshua:6:14 @The second day they went all round the town once, and then went back to their tents: and so they did for six days

bbe@Joshua:6:15 @Then on the seventh day they got up early, at the dawn of the day, and went round the town in the same way, but that day they went round it seven times.

bbe@Joshua:6:17 @And the town will be put to the curse, and everything in it will be given to the Lord: only Rahab, the loose woman, and all who are in the house with her, will be kept safe, because she kept secret the men we sent.

bbe@Joshua:6:20 @So the people gave a loud cry, and the horns were sounded; and on hearing the horns the people gave a loud cry, and the wall came down flat, so that the people went up into the town, every man going straight before him, and they took the town.

bbe@Joshua:6:23 @So the searchers went in and got out Rahab and her father and mother and her brothers and all she had, and they got out all her family; and they took them outside the tents of Israel.

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

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

bbe@Joshua:7:4 @So about three thousand of the people went up, and were sent in flight by the men of Ai.

bbe@Joshua:7:6 @Then Joshua, in great grief, went down on the earth before the ark of the Lord till the evening, and all the chiefs of Israel with him, and they put dust on their heads.

bbe@Joshua:7:20 @And Achan, answering, said to Joshua, Truly I have done wrong against the Lord, the God of Israel, and this is what I have done:

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

bbe@Joshua:8:5 @And I and all the people with me will come near the town, and when they come out against us as they did before, we will go in flight from them;

bbe@Joshua:8:6 @And they will come out after us, till we have got them away from the town; for they will say, They have gone in flight from us as before; so we will go in flight before them;

bbe@Joshua:8:9 @So Joshua sent them out: and they took up a secret position between Beth-el and Ai, on the west side of Ai: but Joshua kept with the people that night.

bbe@Joshua:8:10 @And early in the morning Joshua got up, and put the people in order, and he and the chiefs of Israel went up before the people to Ai.

bbe@Joshua:8:11 @And all the fighting-men who were with him went up and came near the town, and took up a position on the north side of Ai facing the town, with a valley between him and the town.

bbe@Joshua:8:12 @And taking about five thousand men, he put them in position for a surprise attack on the west side of Ai, between Beth-el and Ai.

bbe@Joshua:8:13 @So all the people were in their places, the army on the north side of the town and the secret force on the west; and that night Joshua went down into the valley.

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

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

bbe@Joshua:8:16 @And all the people in Ai came together to go after them; and they went after Joshua, moving away from the town.

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

bbe@Joshua:8:19 @Then the secret force came quickly from their place, and running forward when they saw his hand stretched out, went into the town and took it, and put fire to it straight away.

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

bbe@Joshua:8:22 @Then the other force came out of the town against them, so that they were being attacked on this side and on that: and Israel overcame them and let not one of them get away with his life.

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

bbe@Joshua:8:25 @On that day twelve thousand were put to death, men and women, all the people of Ai.

bbe@Joshua:8:29 @And he put the king of Ai to death, hanging him on a tree till evening: and when the sun went down, Joshua gave them orders to take his body down from the tree, and put it in the public place of the town, covering it with a great mass of stones, which is there to this day.

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

bbe@Joshua:8:35 @Reading to all the meeting of Israel, with the women and the children and the men from other lands who were living among them, every word of the orders which Moses had given.

bbe@Joshua:9:1 @Now on hearing the news of these things, all the kings on the west side of Jordan, in the hill-country and the lowlands and by the Great Sea in front of Lebanon, the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites,

bbe@Joshua:9:6 @And they came to Joshua to the tent-circle at Gilgal, and said to him and to the men of Israel, We have come from a far country: so now make an agreement with us.

bbe@Joshua:9:7 @And the men of Israel said to the Hivites, It may be that you are living among us; how then may we make an agreement with you?

bbe@Joshua:9:8 @And they said to Joshua, We are your servants. Then Joshua said to them, Who are you and where do you come from?

bbe@Joshua:9:11 @So the responsible men and all the people of our country said to us, Take food with you for the journey and go to them, and say to them, We are your servants: so now make an agreement with us.

bbe@Joshua:9:12 @This bread which we have with us for our food, we took warm and new from our houses when starting on our journey to you; but now see, it has become dry and broken up.

bbe@Joshua:9:13 @And these wine-skins were new when we put the wine in them, and now they are cracked as you see; and our clothing and our shoes have become old because of our very long journey here.

bbe@Joshua:9:15 @So Joshua made peace with them, and made an agreement with them that they were not to be put to death: and the chiefs of the people took an oath to them.

bbe@Joshua:9:16 @Now three days after, when they had made this agreement with them, they had word that these men were their neighbours, living near them.

bbe@Joshua:9:17 @And the children of Israel went forward on their journey, and on the third day came to their towns. Now their towns were Gibeon and Chephirah and Beeroth and Kiriath-jearim.

bbe@Joshua:9:19 @But all the chiefs said to the people, We have taken an oath to them by the Lord, the God of Israel, and so we may not put our hands on them.

bbe@Joshua:9:20 @This is what we will do to them: we will not put them to death, for fear that wrath may come on us because of our oath to them

bbe@Joshua:9:22 @Then Joshua sent for them, and said to them, Why have you been false to us, saying, We are very far from you, when you are living among us?

bbe@Joshua:9:24 @And, answering Joshua, they said, Because it came to the ears of your servants that the Lord your God had given orders to his servant Moses to give you all this land, and to send destruction on all the people living in it, because of you; so, fearing greatly for our lives because of you, we have done this.

bbe@Joshua:9:25 @And now we are in your hands: do to us whatever seems good and right to you.

bbe@Joshua:10:1 @Now when it came to the ears of Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, that Joshua had taken Ai, and had given it up to the curse (for as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king); and that the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living among them;

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

bbe@Joshua:10:5 @So the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, were banded together, and went up with all their armies and took up their position before Gibeon and made war against it.

bbe@Joshua:10:7 @So Joshua went up from Gilgal with all his army and all his men of war.

bbe@Joshua:10:10 @And the Lord made them full of fear before Israel, and they put great numbers of them to death at Gibeon, and went after them by the way going up to Beth-horon, driving them back to Azekah and Makkedah

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

bbe@Joshua:10:15 @And Joshua, with all Israel, went back to the tent-circle at Gilgal.

bbe@Joshua:10:16 @But these five kings went in flight secretly to a hole in the rock at Makkedah.

bbe@Joshua:10:21 @All the people went back to Joshua to the tent-circle at Makkedah in peace: and no one said a word against the children of Israel.

bbe@Joshua:10:26 @Then Joshua had them put to death, hanging them on five trees, where they were till evening.

bbe@Joshua:10:27 @And when the sun went down, they were taken down from the trees, by Joshua's orders, and put into the hole where they had gone to be safe; and great stones were placed at the mouth of the hole, where they are to this day.

bbe@Joshua:10:29 @Then Joshua and all Israel with him went on from Makkedah and came to Libnah, and made an attack on it;

bbe@Joshua:10:31 @Then Joshua and all Israel with him went on from Libnah to Lachish, and took up their position against it and made an attack on it,

bbe@Joshua:10:34 @And Joshua and all Israel with him went on from Lachish to Eglon: and they took up their position against it and made an attack on it;

bbe@Joshua:10:36 @And Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron, and made an attack on it;

bbe@Joshua:10:38 @And Joshua and all Israel with him went on to make an attack on Debir;

bbe@Joshua:10:39 @And he took it, with its king and all its towns: and he put them to the sword, giving every person in it to the curse; all were put to death: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir and its king.

bbe@Joshua:10:40 @So Joshua overcame all the land, the hill-country and the South and the lowland and the mountain slopes, and all their kings; all were put to death: and every living thing he gave up to the curse, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had given him orders.

bbe@Joshua:10:43 @Then Joshua and all Israel with him went back to their tents at Gilgal.

bbe@Joshua:11:2 @And to the kings on the north in the hill-country, and in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, and in the lowland, and in the highlands of Dor on the west,

bbe@Joshua:11:3 @And to the Canaanites on the east and on the west, and to the Amorites and the Hittites and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites in the hill-country, and the Hivites under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

bbe@Joshua:11:4 @And they went out, they and all their armies with them, a great people, in number like the sand on the seaside, with horses and war-carriages in great number.

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

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

bbe@Joshua:12:7 @And these are the kings of the land whom Joshua and the children of Israel overcame on the west side of Jordan, from Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon to Mount Halak, which goes up to Seir; and Joshua gave the land to the tribes of Israel for a heritage, in keeping with their divisions;

bbe@Joshua:12:24 @The king of Tirzah, one; all the kings together were thirty-one.

bbe@Joshua:13:3 @From the Shihor, which is before Egypt, to the edge of Ekron to the north, which is taken to be Canaanite property: the five chiefs of the Philistines; the Gazites, and the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites, as well as the Avvim;

bbe@Joshua:13:13 @However, the people of Israel did not send out the Geshurites, or the Maacathites: but Geshur and Maacath are living among Israel to this day.

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

bbe@Joshua:13:31 @And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, towns of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, for half of the children of Machir by their families.

bbe@Joshua:14:4 @Because the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim; and they gave the Levites no part in the land, only towns for their living-places, with the grass-lands for their cattle and for their property.

bbe@Joshua:14:6 @Then the children of Judah went to Joshua in Gilgal; and Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, said to him, You have knowledge of what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, about me and about you in Kadesh-barnea.

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

bbe@Joshua:14:12 @So now, give me this hill-country named by the Lord at that time; for you had an account of it then, how the Anakim were there, and great walled towns: it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to take their land, as the Lord said.

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

bbe@Joshua:15:8 @Then the line goes up by the valley of the son of Hinnom to the south side of the Jebusite (which is Jerusalem): then up to the top of the mountain in front of the valley of Hinnom to the west, which is at the farthest point of the valley of Rephaim on the north:

bbe@Joshua:15:10 @Then turning west, the line goes from Baalah to Mount Seir, and on to the side of Mount Jearim (which is Chesalon) on the north, then down to Beth-shemesh, and on past Timnah:

bbe@Joshua:15:12 @And the limit on the west is the edge of the Great Sea. This is the line going round the land marked out for the children of Judah, by their families.

bbe@Joshua:15:14 @And the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the children of Anak, were forced out from there by Caleb.

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

bbe@Joshua:15:21 @The farthest towns of the tribe of Judah in the direction of the limits of Edom to the south, were Kabzeel, and Eder, and Jagur;

bbe@Joshua:15:32 @And Lebaoth, and Shilhim, and Ain, and Rimmon; all the towns are twenty-nine, with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:15:63 @And as for the Jebusites living in Jerusalem, the children of Judah were unable to make them go out; but the Jebusites are living with the children of Judah at Jerusalem, to this day.

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

bbe@Joshua:16:3 @And it goes down to the west to the limit of the Japhletites, to the limit of Beth-horon the lower, as far as Gezer; ending at the sea.

bbe@Joshua:16:6 @The line goes out to the west at Michmethath on the north; then turning to the east to Taanath-shiloh, going past it on the east of Janoah;

bbe@Joshua:16:8 @From Tappuah the line goes on to the west to the river of Kanah; ending at the sea. This is the heritage of the children of Ephraim by their families;

bbe@Joshua:16:10 @And the Canaanites who were living in Gezer were not forced out; but the Canaanites have been living among Ephraim, to this day, as servants, doing forced work.

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

bbe@Joshua:17:5 @And ten parts were given to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of Jordan;

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

bbe@Joshua:17:12 @But the children of Manasseh were not able to make the people of those towns go out; but the Canaanites would go on living in that land.

bbe@Joshua:17:16 @And the children of Joseph said, The hill-country is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites living in the valley have iron war-carriages, those in Beth-shean and its towns as well as those in the valley of Jezreel.

bbe@Joshua:17:17 @Then Joshua said to the children of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasseh, You are a great people, and have great power: you are not to have one property only,

bbe@Joshua:18:2 @But there were still seven tribes among the children of Israel who had not taken up their heritage.

bbe@Joshua:18:8 @So the men got up and went; and Joshua gave orders to those who went, to make a record of the land, saying, Go up and down through the land, and make a record of it and come back here to me, and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord in Shiloh.

bbe@Joshua:18:9 @So the men went, travelling through the land, and made a record of it by towns in seven parts in a book, and came back to Joshua to the tent-circle at Shiloh.

bbe@Joshua:18:11 @And the first heritage came out for the tribe of Benjamin by their families: and the limit of their heritage went between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

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

bbe@Joshua:18:13 @And from there the line goes south to Luz, to the side of Luz (which is Beth-el), then down to Ataroth-addar, by the mountain to the south of Beth-horon the lower.

bbe@Joshua:18:14 @And the limit is marked as coming round to the south on the west side from the mountain which is south of Beth-horon, and ending at Kiriath-baal (which is Kiriath-jearim), a town of the children of Judah: this is the west part.

bbe@Joshua:18:15 @And the south part is from the farthest point of Kiriath-jearim, and the line goes out to the west to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah:

bbe@Joshua:18:24 @And Chephar-Ammoni and Ophni and Geba; twelve towns with their unwalled places;

bbe@Joshua:19:11 @And their limit goes up to the west to Maralah, stretching to Dabbesheth, and to the stream in front of Jokneam;

bbe@Joshua:19:15 @And Kattath and Nahalal and Shimron and Idalah and Beth-lehem; twelve towns with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:19:26 @And Alammelech and Amad and Mishal, stretching to Carmel on the west and Shihor-libnath;

bbe@Joshua:19:30 @And Ummah and Aphek and Rehob; twenty-two towns with their unwalled places.

bbe@Joshua:19:34 @And turning west to Aznoth-tabor, the limit goes out from there to Hukkok, stretching to Zebulun on the south, and Asher on the west, and Judah at Jordan on the east.

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

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

bbe@Joshua:20:9 @These were the towns marked out for all the children of Israel and for the man from a strange country living among them, so that anyone causing the death of another in error, might go in flight there, and not be put to death by him who has the right of punishment for blood till he had come before the meeting of the people.

bbe@Joshua:21:2 @And said to them in Shiloh in the land of Canaan, The Lord gave orders by Moses that we were to have towns for living in, with their grass-lands for our cattle.

bbe@Joshua:21:4 @And the heritage came out for the families of the Kohathites: the children of Aaron the priest, who were of the Levites, were given thirteen towns from the tribes of Judah, Simeon, and Benjamin.

bbe@Joshua:21:5 @The rest of the children of Kohath by their families were given ten towns from the tribes of Ephraim and Dan and the half-tribe of Manasseh.

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

bbe@Joshua:21:7 @The children of Merari by their families were given twelve towns from the tribes of Reuben and Gad and Zebulun.

bbe@Joshua:21:10 @These were for the children of Aaron among the families of the Kohathites, of the children of Levi: for they came first in the distribution.

bbe@Joshua:21:19 @Thirteen towns with their grass-lands were given to the children of Aaron, the priests.

bbe@Joshua:21:20 @The rest of the families of the children of Kohath, the Levites, were given towns from the tribe of Ephraim.

bbe@Joshua:21:26 @All the towns of the rest of the families of the children of Kohath were ten with their grass-lands.

bbe@Joshua:21:33 @All the towns of the Gershonites with their families were thirteen with their grass-lands.

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

bbe@Joshua:21:41 @All the towns of the Levites, among the heritage of the children of Israel, were forty-eight towns with their grass-lands.

bbe@Joshua:21:44 @And the Lord gave them peace on every side, as he had said to their fathers: all those who were against them gave way before them, for the Lord gave them all up into their hands.

bbe@Joshua:22:6 @Then Joshua gave them his blessing and sent them away: and they went back to their tents.

bbe@Joshua:22:7 @Now to the one half of the tribe of Manasseh, Moses had given a heritage in Bashan; but to the other half, Joshua gave a heritage among their brothers on the west side of Jordan. Now when Joshua sent them away to their tents, he gave them his blessing,

bbe@Joshua:22:8 @And said to them, Go back with much wealth to your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver and gold and brass and iron, and with a very great store of clothing; give your brothers a part of the goods taken in the war.

bbe@Joshua:22:9 @So Reuben and Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh went back, parting from the children of Israel at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, to go to the land of Gilead, to the land of their heritage which had been given to them by the Lord's order to Moses.

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

bbe@Joshua:22:21 @Then the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh said in answer to the heads of the families of Israel,

bbe@Joshua:22:23 @That we have made ourselves an altar, being false to the Lord, keep us not safe from death this day; and if for the purpose of offering burned offerings on it and meal offerings, or peace-offerings, let the Lord himself send punishment for it;

bbe@Joshua:22:24 @And if we have not, in fact, done this designedly and with purpose, having in our minds the fear that in time to come your children might say to our children, What have you to do with the Lord, the God of Israel?

bbe@Joshua:22:25 @For the Lord has made Jordan a line of division between us and you, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad; you have no part in the Lord: so your children will make our children give up fearing the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:22:26 @So we said, Let us now make an altar for ourselves, not for burned offerings or for the offerings of beasts:

bbe@Joshua:22:27 @But to be a witness between us and you, and between the future generations, that we have the right of worshipping the Lord with our burned offerings and our offerings of beasts and our peace-offerings; so that your children will not be able to say to our children in time to come, You have no part in the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:22:28 @For we said to ourselves, If they say this to us or to future generations, then we will say, See this copy of the Lord's altar which our fathers made, not for burned offerings or offerings of beasts, but for a witness between us and you.

bbe@Joshua:22:29 @Never let it be said that we were false to the Lord, turning back this day from him and building an altar for burned offerings and meal offerings and offerings of beasts, in addition to the altar of the Lord our God which is before his House.

bbe@Joshua:22:30 @Then Phinehas the priest and the chiefs of the meeting and the heads of the families of Israel who were with him, hearing what the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh said, were pleased.

bbe@Joshua:22:31 @And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest, said to the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh, Now we are certain that the Lord is among us, because you have not done this wrong against the Lord: and you have kept us from falling into the hands of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:22:32 @Then Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest, and the chiefs went back from the land of Gilead, from the children of Reuben and the children of Gad, and came to the children of Israel in Canaan and gave them the news.

bbe@Joshua:22:33 @And the children of Israel were pleased about this; and they gave praise to God, and had no more thought of going to war against the children of Reuben and the children of Gad for the destruction of their land.

bbe@Joshua:22:34 @And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad gave to that altar the name of Ed. For, they said, It is a witness between us that the Lord is God.

bbe@Joshua:23:4 @Now I have given to you, as the heritage of your tribes, all these nations which are still in the land, together with those cut off by me, from Jordan as far as the Great Sea on the west.

bbe@Joshua:24:2 @And Joshua said to all the people, These are the words of the Lord, the God of Israel: In the past your fathers, Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nahor, were living on the other side of the River: and they were worshipping other gods.

bbe@Joshua:24:4 @And to Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau: to Esau I gave Mount Seir, as his heritage; but Jacob and his children went down to Egypt.

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

bbe@Joshua:24:9 @Then Balak, the son of Zippor, king of Moab, went up to war against Israel; and he sent for Balaam, the son of Beor, to put a curse on you:

bbe@Joshua:24:10 @But I did not give ear to Balaam; and so he went on blessing you; and I kept you safe from him.

bbe@Joshua:24:11 @Then you went over Jordan and came to Jericho: and the men of Jericho made war on you, the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Hivites and the Jebusites: and I gave them up into your hands.

bbe@Joshua:24:15 @And if it seems evil to you to be the servants of the Lord, make the decision this day whose servants you will be: of the gods whose servants your fathers were across the River, or of the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living: but I and my house will be the servants of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:24:16 @Then the people in answer said, Never will we give up the Lord to be the servants of other gods;

bbe@Joshua:24:17 @For it is the Lord our God who has taken us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, out of the prison-house, and who did all those great signs before our eyes, and kept us safe on all our journeys, and among all the peoples through whom we went:

bbe@Joshua:24:18 @And the Lord sent out from before us all the peoples, the Amorites living in the land: so we will be the servants of the Lord, for he is our God.

bbe@Joshua:24:21 @And the people said to Joshua, No! But we will be the servants of the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:24:22 @And Joshua said to the people, You are witnesses against yourselves that you have made the decision to be the servants of the Lord. And they said, We are witnesses.

bbe@Joshua:24:24 @And the people said to Joshua, We will be the servants of the Lord our God, and we will give ear to his voice.

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

bbe@Judges:1:3 @Then Judah said to Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my heritage, so that we may make war against the Canaanites; and I will then go with you into your heritage. So Simeon went with him.

bbe@Judges:1:4 @And Judah went up; and the Lord gave the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hands; and they overcame ten thousand of them in Bezek.

bbe@Judges:1:6 @But Adoni-zedek went in flight; and they went after him and overtook him, and had his thumbs and his great toes cut off.

bbe@Judges:1:9 @After that the children of Judah went down to make war on the Canaanites living in the hill-country and in the south and in the lowlands.

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

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

bbe@Judges:1:15 @And she said to him, Give me a blessing; because you have put me in a dry south-land, now give me springs of water. So Caleb gave her the higher spring and the lower spring.

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

bbe@Judges:1:17 @And Judah went with Simeon, his brother, and overcame the Canaanites living in Zephath, and put it under the curse; and he gave the town the name of Hormah.

bbe@Judges:1:21 @And the children of Judah did not make the Jebusites who were living in Jerusalem go out; the Jebusites are still living with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem.

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

bbe@Judges:1:24 @And the watchers saw a man coming out of the town, and said to him, If you will make clear to us the way into the town, we will be kind to you.

bbe@Judges:1:26 @And he went into the land of the Hittites, building a town there and naming it Luz: which is its name to this day.

bbe@Judges:1:29 @And Ephraim did not make the Canaanites who were living in Gezer go out; but the Canaanites went on living in Gezer among them.

bbe@Judges:1:30 @Zebulun did not make the people of Kitron or the people of Nahalol go out; but the Canaanites went on living among them and were put to forced work.

bbe@Judges:1:32 @But the Asherites went on living among the Canaanites, the people of the land, without driving them out.

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

bbe@Judges:1:34 @And the children of Dan were forced into the hill-country by the Amorites, who would not let them come down into the valley;

bbe@Judges:1:36 @And the limit of the Edomites went from the slope of Akrabbim from Sela and up.

bbe@Judges:2:4 @Now on hearing these words which the angel of the Lord said to all the children of Israel, the people gave themselves up to loud crying and weeping.

bbe@Judges:2:6 @And Joshua let the people go away, and the children of Israel went, every man to his heritage, to take the land for themselves.

bbe@Judges:2:7 @And the people were true to the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the responsible men who were still living after the death of Joshua, and had seen all the great work of the Lord which he had done for Israel.

bbe@Judges:2:12 @And they gave up the Lord, the God of their fathers, who had taken them out of the land of Egypt, and went after other gods, the gods of the peoples round about them, worshipping them and moving the Lord to wrath.

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

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

bbe@Judges:2:16 @Then the Lord gave them judges, as their saviours from the hands of those who were cruel to them.

bbe@Judges:2:17 @But still they would not give ear to their judges, but went after other gods and gave them worship; quickly turning from the way in which their fathers had gone, keeping the orders of the Lord; but they did not do so.

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

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

bbe@Judges:2:21 @From now on I will not go on driving out from before them any of the nations which at the death of Joshua were still living in this land;

bbe@Judges:3:5 @Now the children of Israel were living among the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites:

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

bbe@Judges:3:10 @And the spirit of the Lord came on him and he became judge of Israel, and went out to war, and the Lord gave up Cushan-rishathaim, king of Mesopotamia, into his hands and he overcame him

bbe@Judges:3:13 @And Eglon got together the people of Ammon and Amalek, and they went and overcame Israel and took the town of palm-trees.

bbe@Judges:3:14 @And the children of Israel were servants to Eglon, king of Moab, for eighteen years.

bbe@Judges:3:19 @But he himself, turning back from the stone images at Gilgal, said, I have something to say to you in secret, O king. And he said, Let there be quiet. Then all those who were waiting before him went out.

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

bbe@Judges:3:23 @Then Ehud went out into the covered way, shutting the doors of the summer-house on him and locking them.

bbe@Judges:3:24 @Now when he had gone, the king's servants came, and saw that the doors of the summer-house were locked; and they said, It may be that he is in his summer-house for a private purpose.

bbe@Judges:3:25 @And they went on waiting till they were shamed, but the doors were still shut; so they took the key, and, opening them, saw their lord stretched out dead on the floor.

bbe@Judges:3:26 @But Ehud had got away while they were waiting and had gone past the stone images and got away to Seirah.

bbe@Judges:3:27 @And when he came there, he had a horn sounded in the hill-country of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel went down with him from the hill-country, and he at their head.

bbe@Judges:3:28 @And he said to them, Come after me; for the Lord has given the Moabites, your haters, into your hands. So they went down after him and took the crossing-places of Jordan against Moab, and let no one go across.

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

bbe@Judges:4:5 @(And she had her seat under the palm-tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-el in the hill-country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her to be judged.)

bbe@Judges:4:9 @And she said, I will certainly go with you: though you will get no honour in your undertaking, for the Lord will give Sisera into the hands of a woman. So Deborah got up and went with Barak to Kedesh.

bbe@Judges:4:10 @Then Barak sent for Zebulun and Naphtali to come to Kedesh; and ten thousand men went up after him, and Deborah went up with him

bbe@Judges:4:13 @So Sisera got together all his war-carriages, nine hundred war-carriages of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles as far as the river Kishon.

bbe@Judges:4:14 @Then Deborah said to Barak, Up! for today the Lord has given Sisera into your hands: has not the Lord gone out before you? So Barak went down from Mount Tabor and ten thousand men after him.

bbe@Judges:4:15 @And the Lord sent fear on Sisera and all his war-carriages and all his army before Barak; and Sisera got down from his war-carriage and went in flight on foot.

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

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

bbe@Judges:4:18 @And Jael went out to Sisera, and said to him, Come in, my lord, come in to me without fear. So he went into her tent, and she put a cover over him.

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

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

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

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

bbe@Judges:5:5 @The mountains were shaking before the Lord, before the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@Judges:5:6 @In the days of Shamgar, the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were not used, and travellers went by side roads.

bbe@Judges:5:7 @Country towns were no more in Israel, *** were no more, till you, Deborah, came up, till you came up as a mother in Israel.

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

bbe@Judges:5:13 @Then the chiefs went down to the doors; the Lord's people went down among the strong ones.

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

bbe@Judges:5:19 @The kings came on to the fight, the kings of Canaan were warring; in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo: they took no profit in money.

bbe@Judges:5:20 @The stars from heaven were fighting; from their highways they were fighting against Sisera.

bbe@Judges:5:22 @Then loudly the feet of the horses were sounding with the stamping, the stamping of their war-horses.

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

bbe@Judges:5:29 @Her wise women gave answer to her, yes, she made answer again to herself,

bbe@Judges:6:5 @For they came up regularly with their oxen and their tents; they came like the locusts in number; they and their camels were without number; and they came into the land for its destruction.

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

bbe@Judges:6:9 @And I took you out of the hands of the Egyptians and out of the hands of all who were cruel to you, and I sent them out by force from before you and gave you their land;

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

bbe@Judges:6:13 @Then Gideon said to him, O my lord, if the Lord is with us why has all this come on us? And where are all his works of power, of which our fathers have given us word, saying, Did not the Lord take us out of Egypt? But now he has given us up, handing us over to the power of Midian.

bbe@Judges:6:16 @Then the Lord said to him, Truly, I will be with you, and you will overcome the Midianites as if they were one man.

bbe@Judges:6:19 @Then Gideon went in and made ready a young goat, and with an ephah of meal he made unleavened cakes: he put the meat in a basket and the soup in which it had been cooked he put in a pot, and he took it out to him under the oak-tree and gave it to him there.

bbe@Judges:6:24 @Then Gideon made an altar there to the Lord, and gave it the name Yahweh-shalom; to this day it is in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

bbe@Judges:6:31 @But Joash said to all those who were attacking him, Will you take up the cause of Baal? will you be his saviour? Let anyone who will take up his cause be put to death while it is still morning: if he is a god, let him take up his cause himself because of the pulling down of his altar.

bbe@Judges:6:33 @Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the people of the east, banding themselves together, went over and put up their tents in the valley of Jezreel.

bbe@Judges:6:35 @And he sent through all Manasseh, and they came after him; and he sent to Asher and Zebulun and Naphtali, and they came up and were joined to the others.

bbe@Judges:7:1 @Then Jerubbaal, that is, Gideon, and all the people with him, got up early and put up their tents by the side of the water-spring of Harod; the tents of Midian were on the north side of him, under the hill of Moreh in the valley.

bbe@Judges:7:3 @So now, let it be given out to the people that anyone who is shaking with fear is to go back from Mount Galud. So twenty-two thousand of the people went back, but there were still ten thousand.

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

bbe@Judges:7:7 @And the Lord said to Gideon, By those three hundred who were drinking with their tongues I will give you salvation and give the Midianites into your hands; let the rest of the people go away, every man to his place.

bbe@Judges:7:8 @So they took the vessels of the people, and their horns from their hands, and he sent them away, every man to his tent, keeping only the three hundred; and the tents of Midian were lower down in the valley.

bbe@Judges:7:11 @And after hearing what they are saying, you will get strength to go down against the army. So he went down with his servant Purah to the outer line of the tents of the armed men.

bbe@Judges:7:12 @Now the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the people of the east were covering the valley like locusts; and their camels were like the sand by the seaside, without number.

bbe@Judges:7:14 @And his friend in answer said, This is certainly the sword of Gideon, the son of Joash, the men of Israel: into their hands God has given up all the army of Midian.

bbe@Judges:7:15 @Then Gideon, hearing the story of the dream and the sense in which they took it, gave worship; then he went back to the tents of Israel, and said, Up! for the Lord has given the army of Midian into your hands.

bbe@Judges:7:19 @So Gideon and the three hundred men who were with him came to the outer line of tents, at the start of the middle watch, when the watchmen had only then taken their stations; and the horns were sounded and the vessels broken.

bbe@Judges:7:21 @Then they made a line round the tents, every man in his place; and all the army, awaking from sleep, came running out, and with loud cries went in flight.

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

bbe@Judges:7:23 @And the men of Israel came together from Naphtali and from Asher and all Manasseh, and went after Midian.

bbe@Judges:7:25 @And they took the two chiefs of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and they put Oreb to death at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they put to death at the place of the grape-crushing in Zeeb, and they went after Midian; but the heads of Oreb and Zeeb they took across Jordan to Gideon.

bbe@Judges:8:1 @And the men of Ephraim came and said to him, Why did you not send for us when you went to war against Midian? And they said sharp and angry words to him.

bbe@Judges:8:4 @Then Gideon came to Jordan and went over it with his three hundred, overcome with weariness and in need of food.

bbe@Judges:8:5 @And he said to the men of Succoth, Give bread cakes to my people, for they are overcome with weariness, and I am going on after Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian.

bbe@Judges:8:6 @But the chiefs of Succoth said, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna even now in your hand that we are to give bread to your army?

bbe@Judges:8:8 @So he went up from there to Penuel and made the same request to the men of Penuel; but they gave him the same answer as the men of Succoth had given.

bbe@Judges:8:9 @So he said to the men of Penuel, When I come back in peace, I will have this tower broken down.

bbe@Judges:8:10 @Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor and their armies with them, about fifteen thousand men, those of all the army of the children of the east who were still living; for a hundred and twenty thousand of their swordsmen had been put to death.

bbe@Judges:8:11 @And Gideon went up by the way used by the people living in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and made an attack on the army when they had no thought of danger.

bbe@Judges:8:12 @And Zebah and Zalmunna went in flight; and he went after them, and took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and put all the army to the curse.

bbe@Judges:8:13 @Then Gideon, the son of Joash, went back from the fight:

bbe@Judges:8:14 @And taking prisoner a young man of the people of Succoth, he got from him, in answer to his questions, a list of the chiefs of Succoth and the responsible men, seventy-seven men.

bbe@Judges:8:15 @So he came to the men of Succoth and said, Here are Zebah and Zalmunna, on account of whom you made sport of me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna even now in your hand, that we are to give bread to your army who are overcome with weariness?

bbe@Judges:8:17 @And he had the tower of Penuel broken down and the men of the town put to death.

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

bbe@Judges:8:19 @And he said, They were my brothers, my mother's sons: by the life of the Lord, if you had kept them safe, I would not put you to death.

bbe@Judges:8:21 @Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, Up! Put an end to us yourself: for you have a man's strength. Then Gideon got up and put Zebah and Zalmunna to death and took the ornaments which were on their camels' necks.

bbe@Judges:8:24 @Then Gideon said to them, I have a request to make to you; let every man give me the ear-rings he has taken. (For they had gold ear-rings, because they were Ishmaelites.)

bbe@Judges:8:25 @And they gave answer, We will gladly give them. So they put down a robe, every man dropping into it the ear-rings he had taken.

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

bbe@Judges:8:27 @And Gideon made an ephod from them and put it up in his town Ophrah; and all Israel went after it there and were false to the Lord; and it became a cause of sin to Gideon and his house.

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

bbe@Judges:8:33 @And after the death of Gideon, the children of Israel again went after the gods of Canaan and were false to the Lord, and made Baal-berith their god.

bbe@Judges:8:35 @And they were not kind to the house of Jerubbaal, that is, Gideon, in reward for all the good he had done to Israel.

bbe@Judges:9:1 @Now Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, went to Shechem to his mother's family, and said to them and to all the family of his mother's father,

bbe@Judges:9:3 @So his mother's family said all this about him in the ears of all the townsmen of Shechem: and their hearts were turned to Abimelech, for they said, He is our brother.

bbe@Judges:9:5 @Then he went to his father's house at Ophrah, and put his brothers, the seventy sons of Jerubbaal, to death on the same stone; however, Jotham, the youngest, kept himself safe by going away to a secret place.

bbe@Judges:9:6 @And all the townsmen of Shechem and all Beth-millo came together and went and made Abimelech their king, by the oak of the pillar in Shechem.

bbe@Judges:9:7 @Now Jotham, on hearing of it, went to the top of Mount Gerizim, and crying out with a loud voice said to them, Give ear to me, you townsmen of Shechem, so that God may give ear to you.

bbe@Judges:9:8 @One day the trees went out to make a king for themselves; and they said to the olive-tree, Be king over us.

bbe@Judges:9:9 @But the olive-tree said to them, Am I to give up my wealth of oil, by which men give honour to God, and go waving over the trees?

bbe@Judges:9:11 @But the fig-tree said to them, Am I to give up my sweet taste and my good fruit and go waving over the trees?

bbe@Judges:9:16 @So now, if you have done truly and uprightly in making Abimelech king, and if you have done well to Jerubbaal and his house in reward for the work of his hands;

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

bbe@Judges:9:23 @And God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the townsmen of Shechem; and the townsmen of Shechem were false to Abimelech;

bbe@Judges:9:25 @And the townsmen of Shechem put secret watchers on the tops of the mountains, and they made attacks on all who went by on the road and took their goods; and word of this came to Abimelech.

bbe@Judges:9:26 @Then Gaal, the son of Ebed, came with his brothers, and went over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their faith in him.

bbe@Judges:9:27 @And they went out into their fields and got in the fruit of their vines, and when the grapes had been crushed, they made a holy feast and went into the house of their god, and over their food and drink they were cursing Abimelech.

bbe@Judges:9:28 @And Gaal, the son of Ebed, said, Who is Abimelech and who is Shechem, that we are to be his servants? Is it not right for the son of Jerubbaal and Zebul his captain to be servants to the men of Hamor, the father of Shechem? But why are we to be his servants?

bbe@Judges:9:35 @And Gaal, the son of Ebed, went out, and took his place at the doorway into the town; then Abimelech and his people got up from the place where they had been waiting.

bbe@Judges:9:38 @Then Zebul said to him, Now where is your loud talk when you said, Who is Abimelech that we are to be his servants? Is this not the people whom you were rating so low? Go out now, and make war on them.

bbe@Judges:9:39 @So Gaal went out at the head of the townsmen of Shechem and made war on Abimelech.

bbe@Judges:9:40 @And Abimelech went after him and he went in flight before him; and a great number were falling by the sword all the way up to the town.

bbe@Judges:9:41 @Then Abimelech went back to Arumah; and Zebul sent Gaal and his brothers away and would not let them go on living in Shechem.

bbe@Judges:9:42 @Now the day after, the people went out into the fields; and news of it came to Abimelech.

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

bbe@Judges:9:44 @And Abimelech with his band made a rush, and took up their position at the doorway into the town; and the other two bands made a rush on all those who were in the fields, and overcame them.

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

bbe@Judges:9:46 @Then all the townsmen of the tower of Shechem, hearing of it, went into the inner room of the house of El-berith.

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

bbe@Judges:9:48 @Then Abimelech went up to Mount Zalmon, with all his people; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand and, cutting down branches of trees, took them and put them on his back. And he said to the people who were with him, Be quick and do as you have seen me do.

bbe@Judges:9:49 @So all the people got branches, every man cutting down a branch, and they went with Abimelech at their head and, massing the branches against the inner room, put fire to the room over them; so all those who were in the tower of Shechem, about a thousand men and women, were burned to death with it.

bbe@Judges:9:50 @Then Abimelech went to Thebez, and put his army in position against Thebez and took it.

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

bbe@Judges:9:52 @And Abimelech came to the tower and made an attack on it, and got near to the door of the tower for the purpose of firing it.

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

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

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

bbe@Judges:10:4 @And he had thirty sons, who went on thirty young asses; and they had thirty towns in the land of Gilead, which are named Havvoth-Jair to this day.

bbe@Judges:10:6 @And again the children of Israel did evil in the eyes of the Lord, worshipping the Baals and Astartes, and the gods of Aram and the gods of Zidon and the gods of Moab and the gods of the children of Ammon and the gods of the Philistines; they gave up the Lord and were servants to him no longer.

bbe@Judges:10:8 @And that year the children of Israel were crushed under their yoke; for eighteen years all the children of Israel on the other side of Jordan, in the land of the Amorites which is in Gilead, were cruelly crushed down.

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

bbe@Judges:10:10 @Then the children of Israel, crying out to the Lord, said, Great is our sin against you, for we have given up our God and have been servants to the Baals.

bbe@Judges:10:11 @And the Lord said to the children of Israel, Were not the Egyptians and the Amorites and the children of Ammon and the Philistines

bbe@Judges:10:12 @And the Zidonians and Amalek and Midian crushing you down, and in answer to your cry did I not give you salvation from their hands?

bbe@Judges:10:15 @And the children of Israel said to the Lord, We are sinners; do to us whatever seems good to you: only give us salvation this day.

bbe@Judges:10:18 @And the people of Israel said to one another, Who will be the first to make an attack on the children of Ammon? We will make him head over all Gilead.

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

bbe@Judges:11:5 @And when the children of Ammon made war against Israel, the responsible men of Gilead went to get Jephthah back from the land of Tob;

bbe@Judges:11:6 @And they said to Jephthah, Come and be our chief so that we may make war against the children of Ammon.

bbe@Judges:11:8 @And the responsible men of Gilead said to Jephthah, That is the reason we have come back to you; so go with us and make war against the children of Ammon, and we will make you our head over all the people of Gilead.

bbe@Judges:11:10 @And the responsible men of Gilead said to Jephthah, May the Lord be our witness: we will certainly do as you say.

bbe@Judges:11:11 @So Jephthah went with the responsible men of Gilead, and the people made him head and chief over them; and Jephthah said all these things before the Lord in Mizpah

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

bbe@Judges:11:17 @Then Israel sent men to the king of Edom saying, Let me now go through your land; but the king of Edom did not give ear to them. And in the same way he sent to the king of Moab, but he would not; so Israel went on living in Kadesh.

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

bbe@Judges:11:24 @Do you not keep the lands of those whom Chemosh your god sends out from before you? So we will keep all the lands of those whom the Lord our God sends out from before us.

bbe@Judges:11:27 @So I have done no wrong against you, but you are doing wrong to me in fighting against me: may the Lord, who is Judge this day, be judge between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon.

bbe@Judges:11:28 @The king of the children of Ammon, however, did not give ear to the words which Jephthah sent to him.

bbe@Judges:11:29 @Then the spirit of the Lord came on Jephthah, and he went through Gilead and Manasseh, and came to Mizpeh of Gilead; and from Mizpeh of Gilead he went over to the children of Ammon.

bbe@Judges:11:32 @So Jephthah went over to the children of Ammon to make war on them; and the Lord gave them into his hands.

bbe@Judges:11:33 @And he made an attack on them from Aroer all the way to Minnith, overrunning twenty towns, as far as Abel-cheramim, and put great numbers to the sword. So the children of Ammon were crushed before the children of Israel.

bbe@Judges:11:37 @Then she said to her father, Only do this for me: let me have two months to go away into the mountains with my friends, weeping for my sad fate.

bbe@Judges:11:38 @And he said, Go then. So he sent her away for two months; and she went with her friends to the mountains, weeping for her sad fate.

bbe@Judges:11:39 @And at the end of two months she went back to her father, who did with her as he had said in his oath: and she had never been touched by a man. So it became a rule in Israel,

bbe@Judges:12:1 @Now the men of Ephraim came together and took up arms and went over to Zaphon; and they said to Jephthah, Why did you go over to make war against the children of Ammon without sending for us to go with you? Now we will put your house on fire over you.

bbe@Judges:12:2 @And Jephthah said to them, I and my people were in danger, and the children of Ammon were very cruel to us, and when I sent for you, you gave me no help against them.

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

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

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

bbe@Judges:13:8 @Then Manoah made prayer to the Lord, and said, O Lord, let the man of God whom you sent come to us again and make clear to us what we are to do for the child who is to come.

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

bbe@Judges:13:15 @And Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, Now let us keep you while we make ready a young goat for you

bbe@Judges:13:17 @Then Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, What is your name, so that when your words come true we may give you honour?

bbe@Judges:13:20 @And when the flame went up to heaven from the altar, the angel of the Lord went up in the flame of the altar, while Manoah and his wife were looking on; and they went down on their faces to the earth.

bbe@Judges:13:22 @And Manoah said to his wife, Death will certainly be our fate, for it is a god whom we have seen.

bbe@Judges:13:25 @And the spirit of the Lord first came on him in Mahaneh-dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.

bbe@Judges:14:1 @Now Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah, of the daughters of the Philistines;

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

bbe@Judges:14:5 @Then Samson went down to Timnah (and his father and his mother,) and came to the vine-gardens of Timnah; and a young lion came rushing out at him.

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

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

bbe@Judges:14:8 @Then after a time he went back to take her; and turning from the road to see the dead body of the lion, he saw a mass of bees in the body of the lion, and honey there.

bbe@Judges:14:9 @And he took the honey in his hand, and went on, tasting it on the way; and when he came to his father and mother he gave some to them; but did not say that he had taken the honey from the body of the lion.

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

bbe@Judges:14:11 @And he took thirty friends, and they were with him.

bbe@Judges:14:12 @And Samson said, Now I have a hard question for you: if you are able to give me the answer before the seven days of the feast are over, I will give you thirty linen robes and thirty changes of clothing;

bbe@Judges:14:13 @But if you are not able to give me the answer, then you will have to give me thirty linen robes and thirty changes of clothing. And they said to him, Put your hard question and let us see what it is.

bbe@Judges:14:14 @And he said, Out of the taker of food came food, and out of the strong came the sweet. And at the end of three days they were still not able to give the answer.

bbe@Judges:14:15 @So on the fourth day they said to Samson's wife, Get from your husband the answer to his question by some trick or other, or we will have you and your father's house burned with fire; did you get us here to take all we have?

bbe@Judges:14:16 @Then Samson's wife, weeping over him, said, Truly you have no love for me but only hate; you have put a hard question to the children of my people and have not given me the answer. And he said to her, See, I have not given the answer even to my father or my mother; am I to give it to you?

bbe@Judges:14:17 @And all the seven days of the feast she went on weeping over him; and on the seventh day he gave her the answer, because she gave him no peace; and she sent word of it to the children of her people

bbe@Judges:14:18 @Then on the seventh day, before he went into the bride's room, the men of the town said to him, What is sweeter than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said to them, If you had not been ploughing with my cow you would not have got the answer to my question.

bbe@Judges:14:19 @And the spirit of the Lord came rushing on him, and he went down to Ashkelon and, attacking thirty men there, took their clothing from them, and gave it to the men who had given the answer to his hard question. Then, full of wrath, he went back to his father's house.

bbe@Judges:15:1 @Now a short time after, at the time of the grain-cutting, Samson, taking with him a young goat, went to see his wife; and he said, I will go in to my wife into the bride's room. But her father would not let him go in.

bbe@Judges:15:4 @So Samson went and got three hundred foxes and some sticks of fire-wood; and he put the foxes tail to tail with a stick between every two tails;

bbe@Judges:15:5 @Then firing the sticks, he let the foxes loose among the uncut grain of the Philistines, and all the corded stems as well as the living grain and the vine-gardens and the olives went up in flames.

bbe@Judges:15:8 @And he made an attack on them, driving them in uncontrolled flight, and causing great destruction; then he went away to his safe place in the crack of the rock at Etam.

bbe@Judges:15:9 @Then the Philistines went and put up their tents in Judah, all round Lehi.

bbe@Judges:15:10 @And the men of Judah said, Why have you come up against us? And they said, We have come up to take Samson, and to do to him as he has done to us.

bbe@Judges:15:11 @Then three thousand of the men of Judah went down to the crack of the rock of Etam, and said to Samson, Is it not clear to you that the Philistines are our rulers? What is this you have done to us? And he said to them, I only did to them as they did to me.

bbe@Judges:15:12 @Then they said to him, We have come down to take you and give you up into the hands of the Philistines. And Samson said to them, Give me your oath that you will not make an attack on me yourselves.

bbe@Judges:15:13 @And they said, No; we will take you and give you up into their hands, but truly we will not put you to death. So knotting two new cords round him they took him up from the rock.

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

bbe@Judges:16:1 @Now Samson went to Gaza, and there he saw a loose woman and went in to her.

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

bbe@Judges:16:5 @And the chiefs of the Philistines came up to her, and said to her, Make use of your power over him and see what is the secret of his great strength, and how we may get the better of him, and put bands on him, so that we may make him feeble; and every one of us will give you eleven hundred shekels of silver.

bbe@Judges:16:9 @Now she had men waiting secretly in the inner room; and she said to him, The Philistines are on you, Samson. And the cords were broken by him as a twist of thread is broken when touched by a flame. So the secret of his strength did not come to light.

bbe@Judges:16:12 @So Delilah took new thick cords, knotting them tightly round him, and said to him, The Philistines are on you, Samson. And men were waiting secretly in the inner room. And the cords were broken off his arms like threads.

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

bbe@Judges:16:25 @Now when their hearts were full of joy, they said, Send for Samson to make sport for us. And they sent for Samson out of the prison-house, and he made sport before them; and they put him between the pillars.

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

bbe@Judges:16:29 @Then Samson put his arms round the two middle pillars supporting the house, putting his weight on them, on one with his right hand and on the other with his left.

bbe@Judges:16:30 @And Samson said, Let death overtake me with the Philistines. And he put out all his strength, and the house came down on the chiefs and on all the people who were in it. So the dead whom he sent to destruction by his death were more than all those on whom he had sent destruction in his life.

bbe@Judges:16:31 @Then his brothers and his father's people came down and took him up and put his body to rest in the earth between Zorah and Eshtaol in the resting-place of Manoah his father. And he had been judge of Israel for twenty years.

bbe@Judges:17:2 @And he said to his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver which were taken from you, about which you took an oath and said in my hearing, I have given this silver to the Lord from my hand for myself, to make a pictured image and a metal image: see, I have the silver, for I took it: so now I will give it back to you. And his mother said, May the blessing of the Lord be on my son.

bbe@Judges:17:8 @And he went away from the town of Beth-lehem-judah, looking for somewhere to make his living-place; and on his journey he came to the hill-country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah.

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

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

bbe@Judges:18:5 @Then they said, Do get directions from God for us, to see if the journey on which we are going will have a good outcome.

bbe@Judges:18:7 @Then the five men went on their way and came to Laish and saw the people who were there, living without thought of danger, like the Zidonians, quiet and safe; for they had everything on earth for their needs, and they were far from the Zidonians and had no business with Aram.

bbe@Judges:18:9 @And they said, Up! and let us go against Laish; for we have seen the land, and it is very good: why are you doing nothing? Do not be slow to go in and take the land for your heritage.

bbe@Judges:18:11 @So six hundred men of the Danites from Zorah and Eshtaol went out armed with instruments of war.

bbe@Judges:18:12 @And they went up and put up their tents in Kiriath-jearim in Judah: so that place is named Mahaneh-dan to this day. It is to the west of Kiriath-jearim.

bbe@Judges:18:13 @From there they went on to the hill-country of Ephraim and came to the house of Micah.

bbe@Judges:18:15 @And turning from their road they came to the house of the young Levite, the house of Micah, and said to him, Is it well with you?

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

bbe@Judges:18:18 @And when they went into Micah's house and took out the pictured image and the ephod and the family gods and the metal image, the priest said to them, What are you doing?

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

bbe@Judges:18:21 @So they went on their way again, putting the little ones and the oxen and the goods in front of them.

bbe@Judges:18:26 @Then the children of Dan went on their way; and when Micah saw that they were stronger than he, he went back to his house.

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

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

bbe@Judges:19:3 @Then her husband got up and went after her, with the purpose of talking kindly to her, and taking her back with him; he had with him his young man and two asses: and she took him into her father's house, and her father, when he saw him, came forward to him with joy.

bbe@Judges:19:10 @But the man would not be kept there that night, and he got up and went away and came opposite to Jebus (which is Jerusalem); and he had with him the two asses, ready for travelling, and his woman

bbe@Judges:19:12 @But his master said to him, We will not go out of our way into a strange town, whose people are not of the children of Israel; but we will go on to Gibeah.

bbe@Judges:19:14 @So they went on their way; and the sun went down when they were near Gibeah in the land of Benjamin.

bbe@Judges:19:15 @And they went off the road there with the purpose of stopping for the night in Gibeah: and he went in, seating himself in the street of the town, for no one took them into his house for the night.

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

bbe@Judges:19:18 @And he said to him, We are on our way from Beth-lehem-judah to the inmost parts of the hill-country of Ephraim: I came from there and went to Beth-lehem-judah: now I am on my way back to my house, but no man will take me into his house.

bbe@Judges:19:19 @But we have dry grass and food for our asses, as well as bread and wine for me, and for the woman, and for the young man with us: we have no need of anything.

bbe@Judges:19:22 @While they were taking their pleasure at the meal, the good-for-nothing men of the town came round the house, giving blows on the door; and they said to the old man, the master of the house, Send out that man who came to your house, so that we may take our pleasure with him.

bbe@Judges:19:23 @So the man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said, No, my brothers, do not this evil thing; this man has come into my house, and you are not to do him this wrong.

bbe@Judges:19:27 @In the morning her master got up, and opening the door of the house went out to go on his way; and he saw his servant-wife stretched on the earth at the door of the house with her hands on the step.

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

bbe@Judges:19:29 @And when he had come to his house, he got his knife, and took the woman, cutting her up bone by bone into twelve parts, which he sent through all Israel.

bbe@Judges:20:4 @Then the Levite, the husband of the dead woman, said in answer, I came to Gibeah in the land of Benjamin, I and my servant-wife, for the purpose of stopping there for the night.

bbe@Judges:20:9 @But this is what we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by the decision of the Lord;

bbe@Judges:20:10 @And we will take ten men out of every hundred, through all the tribes of Israel, a hundred out of every thousand, a thousand out of every ten thousand, to get food for the people, so that they may give to Gibeah of Benjamin the right punishment for the act of shame they have done in Israel.

bbe@Judges:20:11 @So all the men of Israel were banded together against the town, united like one man.

bbe@Judges:20:13 @Now give up those good-for-nothing persons in Gibeah so that we may put them to death, clearing away the evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not give ear to the voice of their brothers, the children of Israel.

bbe@Judges:20:15 @And the children of Benjamin who came that day from the towns were twenty-six thousand men armed with swords, in addition to the people of Gibeah, numbering seven hundred of the best fighting-men,

bbe@Judges:20:16 @Who were left-handed, able to send a stone at a hair without error.

bbe@Judges:20:17 @And the men of Israel, other than Benjamin, were four hundred thousand in number, all armed with swords; they were all men of war.

bbe@Judges:20:18 @And they got up and went up to Beth-el to get directions from God, and the children of Israel said, Who is to be the first to go up to the fight against the children of Benjamin? And the Lord said, Judah is to go up first.

bbe@Judges:20:20 @And the men of Israel went out to war against Benjamin (and the men of Israel put their forces in fighting order against them at Gibeah).

bbe@Judges:20:21 @Then the children of Benjamin came out from Gibeah, cutting down twenty-two thousand of the Israelites that day.

bbe@Judges:20:23 @Now the children of Israel went up, weeping before the Lord till evening, requesting the Lord and saying, Am I to go forward again to the fight against the children of Benjamin my brother? And the Lord said, Go up against him.

bbe@Judges:20:24 @So the children of Israel went forward against the children of Benjamin the second day.

bbe@Judges:20:25 @And the second day Benjamin went out against them from Gibeah, cutting down eighteen thousand men of the children of Israel, all swordsmen.

bbe@Judges:20:26 @Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up to Beth-el, weeping and waiting there before the Lord, going without food all day till evening, and offering burned offerings and peace-offerings before the Lord.

bbe@Judges:20:30 @And the children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and put themselves in fighting order against Gibeah as before.

bbe@Judges:20:31 @And the children of Benjamin went out against the people, moving away from the town; and as before, at their first attack, they put to death about thirty men of Israel on the highways, of which one goes up to Beth-el and the other to Gibeah, and in the open country.

bbe@Judges:20:33 @So all the men of Israel got up and put themselves in fighting order at Baal-tamar: and those who had been waiting secretly to make a surprise attack came rushing out of their place on the west of Geba.

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

bbe@Judges:20:35 @Then the Lord sent sudden fear on Benjamin before Israel; and that day the children of Israel put to death twenty-five thousand, one hundred men of Benjamin, all of them swordsmen.

bbe@Judges:20:36 @So the children of Benjamin saw that they were overcome: and the men of Israel had given way before Benjamin, putting their faith in the watchers who were to make the surprise attack on Gibeah.

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

bbe@Judges:20:39 @The men of Israel were to make a turn about in the fight. And Benjamin had overcome and put to death about thirty of the men of Israel, and were saying, Certainly they are falling back before us as in the first fight.

bbe@Judges:20:40 @Then the sign went up out of the town in the pillar of smoke, and the Benjamites, turning back, saw all the town going up in smoke to heaven.

bbe@Judges:20:41 @And the men of Israel had made a turn about, and the men of Benjamin were overcome with fear, for they saw that evil had overtaken them.

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

bbe@Judges:20:43 @And crushing Benjamin down, they went after them, driving them from Nohah as far as the east side of Gibeah.

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

bbe@Judges:20:46 @So twenty-five thousand of the swordsmen of Benjamin came to their end that day, all strong men of war.

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

bbe@Judges:21:2 @And the people came to Beth-el, waiting there till evening before God, and gave themselves up to bitter weeping.

bbe@Judges:21:6 @And the children of Israel were moved with pity for Benjamin their brother, saying, Today one tribe has been cut off from Israel.

bbe@Judges:21:7 @What are we to do about wives for those who are still living? For we have taken an oath by the Lord that we will not give them our daughters for wives.

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

bbe@Judges:21:10 @So they (the meeting) sent twelve thousand of the best fighting-men, and gave them orders, saying, Go and put the people of Jabesh-gilead to the sword without mercy, with their women and their little ones.

bbe@Judges:21:12 @Now there were among the people of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins who had never had sex relations with a man; these they took to their tents in Shiloh in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Judges:21:13 @And all the meeting sent to the men of Benjamin who were in the rock of Rimmon, offering them peace.

bbe@Judges:21:14 @Then Benjamin came back; and they gave them the women whom they had kept from death among the women of Jabesh-gilead: but still there were not enough for them

bbe@Judges:21:15 @And the people were moved with pity for Benjamin, because the Lord had let his wrath loose on the tribes of Israel.

bbe@Judges:21:16 @Then the responsible men of the meeting said, What are we to do about wives for the rest of them, seeing that the women of Benjamin are dead?

bbe@Judges:21:18 @Seeing that we may not give them our daughters as wives? For the children of Israel had taken an oath, saying, Cursed is he who gives a wife to Benjamin.

bbe@Judges:21:22 @And when their fathers or their brothers come and make trouble, you are to say to them, Give them to us as an act of grace; for we did not take them as wives for ourselves in war; and if you yourselves had given them to us you would have been responsible for the broken oath.

bbe@Judges:21:23 @So the men of Benjamin did this, and got wives for themselves for every one of their number, taking them away by force from the dance; then they went back to their heritage, building up their towns and living in them.

bbe@Judges:21:24 @Then the children of Israel went away from there, every man to his tribe and his family, every man went back to his heritage.

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

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

bbe@Ruth:1:3 @And Elimelech, Naomi's husband, came to his end; and only her two sons were with her.

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

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

bbe@Ruth:1:9 @May the Lord give you rest in the houses of your husbands. Then she gave them a kiss; and they were weeping bitterly.

bbe@Ruth:1:10 @And they said to her, No, but we will go back with you to your people.

bbe@Ruth:1:13 @Would you keep yourselves till they were old enough? would you keep from having husbands for them? No, my daughters; but I am very sad for you that the hand of the Lord is against me.

bbe@Ruth:1:14 @Then again they were weeping; and Orpah gave her mother-in-law a kiss, but Ruth would not be parted from her.

bbe@Ruth:1:17 @Wherever death comes to you, death will come to me, and there will be my last resting-place; the Lord do so to me and more if we are parted by anything but death.

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

bbe@Ruth:1:21 @I went out full, and the Lord has sent me back again with nothing; why do you give me the name Naomi, seeing that the Lord has given witness against me, and the Ruler of all has sent sorrow on me?

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

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

bbe@Ruth:2:4 @And Boaz came from Beth-lehem, and said to the grain-cutters, The Lord be with you. And they made answer, The Lord give you his blessing.

bbe@Ruth:2:10 @Then she went down on her face to the earth, and said to him, Why have I grace in your eyes, that you give attention to me, seeing I am from a strange people?

bbe@Ruth:2:11 @And Boaz answering said to her, I have had news of everything you have done for your mother-in-law after the death of your husband; how you went away from your father and mother and the land of your birth, and came to a people who are strange to you.

bbe@Ruth:2:17 @So she went on getting together the heads of grain till evening; and after crushing out the seed it came to about an ephah of grain.

bbe@Ruth:2:18 @And she took it up and went into the town; and she let her mother-in-law see what she had got, and after taking enough for herself she gave her the rest.

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

bbe@Ruth:2:23 @So she kept near the servant-girls of Boaz to take up the grain till the cutting of the early grain and the cutting of the late grain were ended; and she went on living with her mother-in-law.

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

bbe@Ruth:3:3 @So take a bath, and, after rubbing your body with sweet oil, put on your best robe, and go down to the grain-floor; but do not let him see you till he has come to the end of his meal.

bbe@Ruth:3:6 @So she went down to the grain-floor and did all her mother-in-law had said to her.

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

bbe@Ruth:3:9 @And he said, Who are you? And she answering said, I am your servant Ruth: take your servant as wife, for you are a near relation.

bbe@Ruth:3:10 @And he said, May the Lord give you his blessing, my daughter: even better than what you did at the first is this last kind act you have done, in not going after young men, with or without wealth

bbe@Ruth:3:13 @Take your rest here tonight; and in the morning, if he will do for you what it is right for a relation to do, very well, let him do so: but if he will not, then by the living Lord I myself will do so.

bbe@Ruth:3:15 @And he said, Take your robe, stretching it out in your hands: and she did so, and he took six measures of grain and put them into it, and gave it her to take: and she went back to the town.

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

bbe@Ruth:4:11 @And all the people who were in the public place, and the responsible men, said, We are witnesses. May the Lord make this woman, who is about to come into your house, like Rachel and Leah, which two were the builders of the house of Israel: and may you have wealth in Ephrathah, and be great in Beth-lehem;

bbe@Ruth:4:13 @So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and the Lord made her with child and she gave birth to a son.

bbe@Ruth:4:17 @And the women who were her neighbours gave it a name, saying, Naomi has a child; and they gave him the name of Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

bbe@1Samuel:1:3 @Now this man went up from his town every year to give worship and to make offerings to the Lord of armies in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the Lord, were there.

bbe@1Samuel:1:7 @And year by year, whenever she went up to the house of the Lord, she kept on attacking her, so that Hannah gave herself up to weeping and would take no food.

bbe@1Samuel:1:8 @Then her husband Elkanah said to her, Hannah, why are you weeping? and why are you taking no food? why is your heart troubled? am I not more to you than ten sons?

bbe@1Samuel:1:10 @And with grief in her soul, weeping bitterly, she made her prayer to the Lord.

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

bbe@1Samuel:1:15 @And Hannah, answering him, said, No, my lord, I am a woman whose spirit is broken with sorrow: I have not taken wine or strong drink, but I have been opening my heart before the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:1:17 @Then Eli said to her, Go in peace: and may the God of Israel give you an answer to the prayer you have made to him.

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

bbe@1Samuel:1:19 @And early in the morning they got up, and after worshipping before the Lord they went back to Ramah, to their house: and Elkanah had connection with his wife; and the Lord kept her in mind.

bbe@1Samuel:1:21 @And the man Elkanah with all his family went up to make the year's offering to the Lord, and to give effect to his oath.

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:2:7 @The Lord gives wealth and takes a man's goods from him: crushing men down and again lifting them up;

bbe@1Samuel:2:8 @Lifting the poor out of the dust, and him who is in need out of the lowest place, to give them their place among rulers, and for their heritage the seat of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord's and he has made them the base of the world.

bbe@1Samuel:2:11 @Then Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child became the servant of the Lord under the direction of Eli the priest.

bbe@1Samuel:2:12 @Now the sons of Eli were evil and good-for-nothing men, having no knowledge of the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:2:20 @And every year Eli gave Elkanah and his wife a blessing, saying, May the Lord give you offspring by this woman in exchange for the child you have given to the Lord. And they went back to their house.

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

bbe@1Samuel:2:27 @And a man of God came to Eli and said to him, The Lord says, Did I let myself be seen by your father's people when they were in Egypt, servants in Pharaoh's house?

bbe@1Samuel:2:29 @Why then are you looking with envy on my offerings of meat and of meal which were ordered by my word, honouring your sons before me, and making yourselves fat with all the best of the offerings of Israel, my people?

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

bbe@1Samuel:3:5 @And running to Eli he said, Here am I, for you said my name. And Eli said, I did not say your name; go to your rest again. So he went back to his bed.

bbe@1Samuel:3:6 @And again the Lord said, Samuel. And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, Here am I; for you certainly said my name. But he said in answer, I said nothing, my son; go to your rest again.

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

bbe@1Samuel:3:9 @So Eli said to Samuel, Go back: and if the voice comes again, let your answer be, Say on, Lord; for the ears of your servant are open. So Samuel went back to his bed.

bbe@1Samuel:3:16 @Then Eli said, Samuel, my son. And Samuel answering said, Here am I.

bbe@1Samuel:4:1 @Now at that time the Philistines came together to make war against Israel, and the men of Israel went out to war against the Philistines and took up their position at the side of Eben-ezer: and the Philistines put their forces in position in Aphek.

bbe@1Samuel:4:4 @So the people sent to Shiloh and got the ark of the agreement of the Lord of armies whose resting-place is between the winged ones; and Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were there with the ark of God's agreement.

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:4:12 @And a man of Benjamin went running from the fight and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothing out of order and earth on his head.

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

bbe@1Samuel:4:17 @And the man said, Israel went in flight from the Philistines, and there has been great destruction among the people, and your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been taken.

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

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

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

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:5:12 @And those men who were not overtaken by death were cruelly diseased: and the cry of the town went up to heaven

bbe@1Samuel:6:2 @And the Philistines sent for the priests and those who were wise in secret arts, and said to them, What are we to do with the ark of the Lord? How are we to send it away to its place?

bbe@1Samuel:6:3 @And they said, If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it without an offering, but send him a sin-offering with it: then you will have peace again, and it will be clear to you why the weight of his hand has not been lifted from you.

bbe@1Samuel:6:4 @Then they said, What sin-offering are we to send to him? And they said, Five gold images of the growths caused by your disease and five gold mice, one for every lord of the Philistines: for the same disease came on you and on your lords.

bbe@1Samuel:6:5 @So make images of the growths caused by your disease and of the mice which are damaging your land; and give glory to the God of Israel: it may be that the weight of his hand will be lifted from you and from your gods and from your land.

bbe@1Samuel:6:6 @Why do you make your hearts hard, like the hearts of Pharaoh and the Egyptians? When he had made sport of them, did they not let the people go, and they went away?

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:6:13 @And the people of Beth-shemesh were cutting their grain in the valley, and lifting up their eyes they saw the ark and were full of joy when they saw it.

bbe@1Samuel:6:15 @Then the Levites took down the ark of the Lord and the chest in which were the gold images, and put them on the great stone: and the men of Beth-shemesh made burned offerings and gave worship that day before the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:6:16 @And the five lords of the Philistines, having seen it, went back to Ekron the same day.

bbe@1Samuel:6:18 @And the gold mice, one for every town of the Philistines, the property of the five lords, walled towns as well as country places: and the great stone where they put the ark of the Lord is still in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite to this day.

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:7:7 @Now when the Philistines had news that the children of Israel had come together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And the children of Israel, hearing of it, were full of fear.

bbe@1Samuel:7:9 @And Samuel took a young lamb, offering all of it as a burned offering to the Lord; and Samuel made prayers to the Lord for Israel and the Lord gave him an answer.

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

bbe@1Samuel:7:11 @And the men of Israel went out from Mizpah and went after the Philistines, attacking them till they came under Beth-car.

bbe@1Samuel:7:12 @Then Samuel took a stone and put it up between Mizpah and Jeshanah, naming it Eben-ezer, and saying, Up to now the Lord has been our help.

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:7:16 @From year to year he went in turn to Beth-el and Gilgal and Mizpah, judging Israel in all those places

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

bbe@1Samuel:8:3 @And his sons did not go in his ways, but moved by the love of money took rewards, and were not upright in judging.

bbe@1Samuel:8:4 @Then all the responsible men of Israel got together and went to Samuel at Ramah,

bbe@1Samuel:8:5 @And said to him, See now, you are old, and your sons do not go in your ways: give us a king now to be our judge, so that we may be like the other nations.

bbe@1Samuel:8:10 @And Samuel said all these words of the Lord to the people who were desiring a king.

bbe@1Samuel:8:18 @Then you will be crying out because of your king whom you have taken for yourselves; but the Lord will not give you an answer in that day

bbe@1Samuel:8:19 @But the people gave no attention to the voice of Samuel; and they said, No, but we will have a king over us,

bbe@1Samuel:8:20 @So that we may be like the other nations, and so that our king may be our judge and go out before us to war.

bbe@1Samuel:8:21 @Then Samuel, after hearing all the people had to say, went and gave an account of it to the Lord.

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

bbe@1Samuel:9:4 @So they went through the hill-country of Ephraim and through the land of Shalishah, but they saw no sign of them: then they went through the land of Shaalim, but they were not there: and they went through the land of the Benjamites, but they did not come across them.

bbe@1Samuel:9:7 @Then Saul said to his servant, But if we go, what are we to take the man? all our bread is gone, and we have no offering to take to the man of God: what are we to do?

bbe@1Samuel:9:8 @But the servant said in answer, I have here a fourth part of a shekel of silver: I will give that to the man of God, and he will give us directions about our way.

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:9:11 @And when they were on the way up to the town, they saw some young girls going out to get water and said to them, Is the seer here?

bbe@1Samuel:9:14 @So they went up to the town, and when they came inside the town, Samuel came face to face with them on his way to the high place.

bbe@1Samuel:9:22 @Then Samuel took Saul and his servant into the guest room, and made them take the chief place among all the guests who were there, about thirty persons.

bbe@1Samuel:9:24 @And the cook took up the leg with the fat tail on it, and put it before Saul. And Samuel said, This is the part which has been kept for you: take it as your part of the feast; because it has been kept for you till the right time came and till the guests were present. So that day Saul took food with Samuel.

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

bbe@1Samuel:9:26 @And about dawn Samuel said to Saul on the roof, Get up so that I may send you away. So Saul got up, and he and Samuel went out together.

bbe@1Samuel:9:27 @And on their way down to the end of the town, Samuel said to Saul, Give your servant orders to go on in front of us, (so he went on,) but you keep here, so that I may give you the word of God.

bbe@1Samuel:10:2 @When you have gone away from me today, you will see two men by the resting-place of Rachel's body, in the land of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to you, The asses which you went in search of have come back, and now your father, caring no longer for the asses, is troubled about you, saying, What am I to do about my son?

bbe@1Samuel:10:6 @And the spirit of the Lord will come on you with power, and you will be acting like a prophet with them, and will be changed into another man.

bbe@1Samuel:10:9 @And it came about, that when he went away from Samuel, God gave him a changed heart: and all those signs took place that day

bbe@1Samuel:10:10 @And when they came to Gibeah, a band of prophets came face to face with him; and the spirit of God came on him with power and he took his place among them as a prophet.

bbe@1Samuel:10:12 @And one of the people of that place said in answer, And who is their father? So it became a common saying, Is even Saul among the prophets?

bbe@1Samuel:10:14 @And Saul's father's brother said to him and his servant, Where have you been? And he said, Searching for the asses: and when we saw no sign of them, we came to Samuel.

bbe@1Samuel:10:16 @And Saul, answering him, said, He gave us word that the asses had come back. But he said nothing to him of Samuel's words about the kingdom.

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

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:10:26 @And Saul went to Gibeah, to his house; and with him went the men of war whose hearts had been touched by God.

bbe@1Samuel:11:1 @Then about a month after this, Nahash the Ammonite came up and put his forces in position for attacking Jabesh-gilead: and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, Make an agreement with us and we will be your servants.

bbe@1Samuel:11:3 @Then the responsible men of Jabesh said to him, Give us seven days, so that we may send men to every part of Israel: and then, if no one comes to our help, we will come out to you.

bbe@1Samuel:11:4 @So they sent representatives to Saul's town Gibeah, and these gave the news to the people: and all the people gave themselves to weeping.

bbe@1Samuel:11:5 @Now Saul came from the field, driving the oxen before him; and he said, Why are the people weeping? And they gave him word of what the men of Jabesh had said.

bbe@1Samuel:11:6 @And at their words, the spirit of God came on Saul with power, and he became very angry.

bbe@1Samuel:11:8 @And he had them numbered in Bezek: the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.

bbe@1Samuel:11:9 @Then he said to the representatives who had come, Say to the men of Jabesh-gilead, Tomorrow, by the time the sun is high, you will be made safe. And the representatives came and gave the news to the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.

bbe@1Samuel:11:10 @So the men of Jabesh said, Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you may do to us whatever seems good to you.

bbe@1Samuel:11:11 @Now on the day after, Saul put the people into three bands, and in the morning watch they came to the tents of the Ammonites, and they went on attacking them till the heat of the day: and those who were not put to death were put to flight in every direction, so that no two of them were together

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

bbe@1Samuel:11:15 @So all the people went to Gilgal; and there in Gilgal they made Saul king before the Lord; and peace-offerings were offered before the Lord; and there Saul and all the men of Israel were glad with great joy.

bbe@1Samuel:12:8 @When Jacob and his sons had come into Egypt, and were crushed by the Egyptians, the prayers of your fathers came up to the Lord, and the Lord sent Moses and Aaron, who took your fathers out of Egypt, and he put them into this place.

bbe@1Samuel:12:9 @But they were false to the Lord their God, and he gave them up into the hands of Sisera, captain of the army of Jabin, king of Hazor, and into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the king of Moab, who made war against them.

bbe@1Samuel:12:10 @Then crying out to the Lord, they said, We have done evil, because we have been turned away from the Lord, worshipping the Baals and the Astartes: but now, make us safe from those who are against us and we will be your servants.

bbe@1Samuel:12:11 @So the Lord sent Jerubbaal and Barak and Jephthah and Samuel and took you out of the power of those who were fighting against you on every side, and made you safe.

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

bbe@1Samuel:12:14 @If in the fear of the Lord you are his servants, hearing his voice and not going against the orders of the Lord, but being true to the Lord your God, you and the king ruling over you, then all will be well:

bbe@1Samuel:12:18 @So Samuel made prayer to the Lord; and the Lord sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people were in fear of the Lord and of Samuel.

bbe@1Samuel:12:19 @And all the people said to Samuel, Make prayer for us to the Lord your God so that death may not overtake us: for in addition to all our sins we have done this evil, in desiring a king.

bbe@1Samuel:13:2 @And Saul took for himself three thousand men of Israel, of whom he kept two thousand with him in Michmash and in the mountain of Beth-el, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah in the land of Benjamin: the rest of the people he sent back to their tents.

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

bbe@1Samuel:13:6 @When the men of Israel saw the danger they were in, (for the people were troubled,) they took cover in cracks in the hillsides and in the woods and in rocks and holes and hollows.

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

bbe@1Samuel:13:8 @And he went on waiting there for seven days, the time fixed by Samuel: but Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were starting to go away from him.

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

bbe@1Samuel:13:11 @And Samuel said, What have you done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were going away from me, and you had not come at the time which had been fixed, and the Philistines had come together at Michmash;

bbe@1Samuel:13:15 @Then Samuel went up from Gilgal and the rest of the people went up after Saul against the men of war, and they came from Gilgal to Gibeah in the land of Benjamin: and Saul took the number of the people who were with him, about six hundred men

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

bbe@1Samuel:13:17 @And three bands of men came out from the Philistines to make an attack; one band went by the road which goes to Ophrah, into the land of Shual:

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

bbe@1Samuel:13:23 @And the armed force of the Philistines went out to the narrow way of Michmash.

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:14:5 @The one rock went up on the north in front of Michmash and the other on the south in front of Geba.

bbe@1Samuel:14:6 @And Jonathan said to his young servant who had his arms, Come, let us go over to the armies of these men who have no circumcision: it may be that the Lord will give us help, for there is no limit to his power; the Lord is able to give salvation by a great army or by a small band.

bbe@1Samuel:14:8 @Then Jonathan said, Now we will go over to these men and let them see us.

bbe@1Samuel:14:9 @If they say to us, Keep quiet where you are till we come to you; then we will keep our places and not go up to them.

bbe@1Samuel:14:10 @But if they say, Come up to us; then we will go up, for the Lord has given them into our hands: and this will be the sign to us.

bbe@1Samuel:14:12 @And the armed men of the force gave Jonathan and his servant their answer, saying, Come up here to us, and we will let you see something. Then Jonathan said to his servant, Come up after me: for the Lord has given them up into the hands of Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:14:13 @And Jonathan went up, gripping with his hands and his feet, his servant going up after him; and the Philistines gave way before Jonathan when he made an attack on them, and his servant put them to death after him.

bbe@1Samuel:14:14 @And at their first attack, Jonathan and his servant put to the sword about twenty men, all inside the space of half an acre of land.

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

bbe@1Samuel:14:17 @Then Saul said to the people who were with him, Let everyone be numbered and let us see who has gone from us

bbe@1Samuel:14:18 @And Saul said to Ahijah, Let the ephod come here. For he went before Israel with the ephod at that time.

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

bbe@1Samuel:14:21 @Then the Hebrews who had been with the Philistines for some time, and had gone up with them to their tents, turning round were joined to those who were with Saul and Jonathan.

bbe@1Samuel:14:22 @And all the men of Israel who had taken cover in the hill-country of Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines had been put to flight, went after them, attacking them.

bbe@1Samuel:14:23 @So the Lord made Israel safe that day: and the fight went over to Beth-aven.

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

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

bbe@1Samuel:14:28 @Then one of the people said to him, Your father put the people under an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed who takes any food this day. And the people were feeble, needing food.

bbe@1Samuel:14:30 @How much more if the people had freely taken their food from the goods of those who were fighting against them! would there not have been much greater destruction among the Philistines?

bbe@1Samuel:14:31 @That day they overcame the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon: and the people were feeble from need of food.

bbe@1Samuel:14:37 @And Saul, desiring directions from God, said, Am I to go down after the Philistines? will you give them up into the hands of Israel? But he gave him no answer that day.

bbe@1Samuel:14:39 @For, by the living Lord, the saviour of Israel, even if the sinner is Jonathan, my son, death will certainly be his fate. But not a man among all the people gave him any answer.

bbe@1Samuel:14:41 @Then Saul said to the Lord, the God of Israel, Why have you not given me an answer today? If the sin is in me or in Jonathan my son, O Lord God of Israel, give Urim, and if it is in your people Israel, give Thummim. And by the decision of the Lord, Saul and Jonathan were marked out, and the people went free.

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

bbe@1Samuel:14:46 @Then Saul, turning back, went after the Philistines no longer: and the Philistines went back to their place.

bbe@1Samuel:14:47 @Now when Saul had taken his place as ruler of Israel, he made war on those who were against him on every side, Moab and the Ammonites and Edom and the kings of Zobah and the Philistines: and whichever way he went, he overcame them.

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

bbe@1Samuel:14:51 @Kish, the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abner, were sons of Abiel.

bbe@1Samuel:15:6 @And Saul said to the Kenites, Go away, take yourselves out from among the Amalekites, or destruction will overtake you with them: for you were kind to the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt. So the Kenites went away from among the Amalekites.

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

bbe@1Samuel:15:15 @And Saul said, They have taken them from the Amalekites: for the people have kept the best of the sheep and of the oxen as an offering to the Lord your God; all the rest we have given up to destruction.

bbe@1Samuel:15:21 @But the people took some of their goods, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which were put to the curse, to make an offering of them to the Lord your God in Gilgal.

bbe@1Samuel:15:31 @So Samuel went back after Saul, and Saul gave worship to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:15:34 @Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house in Gibeah, in the land of Saul.

bbe@1Samuel:16:11 @Then Samuel said to Jesse, Are all your children here? And he said, There is still the youngest, and he is looking after the sheep. And Samuel said to Jesse, Send and make him come here: for we will not take our seats till he is here.

bbe@1Samuel:16:13 @Then Samuel took the bottle of oil, and put the oil on him there among his brothers: and from that day the spirit of the Lord came on David with power. So Samuel went back to Ramah.

bbe@1Samuel:16:16 @Now give orders to your servants who are here before you to go in search of a man who is an expert player on a corded instrument: and it will be that when the evil spirit from God is on you, he will make music for you on his instrument, and you will get well.

bbe@1Samuel:16:18 @Then one of the servants in answer said, I have seen a son of Jesse, the Beth-lehemite, who is expert at playing, and a strong man and a man of war; and he is wise in his words, and pleasing in looks, and the Lord is with him.

bbe@1Samuel:16:23 @And whenever the evil spirit from God came on Saul, David took his instrument and made music: so new life came to Saul, and he got well, and the evil spirit went away from him.

bbe@1Samuel:17:1 @Now the Philistines got their armies together for war, and came together at Socoh in the land of Judah, and took up their position between Socoh and Azekah in Ephes-dammim.

bbe@1Samuel:17:3 @The Philistines were stationed on the mountain on one side and Israel on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.

bbe@1Samuel:17:5 @And he had a head-dress of brass on his head, and he was dressed in a coat of metal, the weight of which was five thousand shekels of brass.

bbe@1Samuel:17:6 @His legs were covered with plates of brass and hanging on his back was a javelin of brass.

bbe@1Samuel:17:7 @The stem of his spear was as long as a cloth-worker's rod, and its head was made of six hundred shekels' weight of iron: and one went before him with his body-cover.

bbe@1Samuel:17:9 @If he is able to have a fight with me and overcome me, then we will be your servants: but if I am able to overcome him, then you will be our servants and do work for us.

bbe@1Samuel:17:10 @And the Philistine said, I have put to shame the armies of Israel this day; give me a man so that we may have a fight together.

bbe@1Samuel:17:11 @And Saul and all Israel, hearing those words of the Philistine, were troubled and full of fear.

bbe@1Samuel:17:13 @And the three oldest sons of Jesse had gone with Saul to the fight: the names of the three who went to the fight were Eliab, the oldest, and Abinadab the second, and Shammah the third.

bbe@1Samuel:17:14 @And David was the youngest: and the three oldest were with Saul's army.

bbe@1Samuel:17:15 @Now David went to and from Saul, looking after his father's sheep at Beth-lehem.

bbe@1Samuel:17:19 @Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.

bbe@1Samuel:17:20 @And David got up early in the morning, and, giving the sheep into the care of a keeper, took the things and went as Jesse had said; and he came to the lines where the carts were, when the army was going out to the fight giving their war-cry.

bbe@1Samuel:17:22 @And David gave his parcels into the hands of the keeper of the army stores, and went running to the army and came to his brothers to get knowledge about them.

bbe@1Samuel:17:24 @And all the men of Israel, when they saw him, went in flight, overcome with fear.

bbe@1Samuel:17:25 @And the men of Israel said, Have you seen this man? Clearly he has come out to put shame on Israel: and it is certain that if any man overcomes him, the king will give that man great wealth, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's family free in Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:17:27 @And the people gave him this answer, So it will be done to the man who overcomes him.

bbe@1Samuel:17:30 @And turning away from him to one of the other men, he said the same words: and the people gave him the same answer.

bbe@1Samuel:17:35 @I went out after him, and overcame him, and took it out of his mouth: and if, turning on me, he came at me, I took him by the hair and overcame him and put him to death.

bbe@1Samuel:17:40 @Then he took his stick in his hand, and got five smooth stones from the bed of the stream and put them in a bag such as is used by sheep-keepers; and in his hand was a leather band used for sending stones: and so he went in the direction of the Philistine.

bbe@1Samuel:17:41 @And the Philistine came nearer to David; and the man who had his body-cover went before him.

bbe@1Samuel:17:48 @Now when the Philistine made a move and came near to David, David quickly went at a run in the direction of the army, meeting the Philistine face to face.

bbe@1Samuel:17:49 @And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone and sent it from his leather band straight at the Philistine, and the stone went deep into his brow, and he went down to the earth, falling on his face.

bbe@1Samuel:17:51 @So running up to the Philistine and putting his foot on him, David took his sword out of its cover, and put him to death, cutting off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their fighter was dead, they went in flight.

bbe@1Samuel:17:52 @And the men of Israel and of Judah got up, and gave a cry, and went after the Philistines as far as Gath and the town doors of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines were falling down by the road from Shaaraim all the way to Gath and Ekron.

bbe@1Samuel:17:58 @And Saul said to him, Young man, whose son are you? And David in answer said, I am the son of your servant Jesse of Beth-lehem.

bbe@1Samuel:18:5 @And David went wherever Saul sent him, and did wisely: and Saul put him at the head of his men of war, and this was pleasing to all the people as well as to Saul's servants.

bbe@1Samuel:18:7 @And the women, answering one another in their song, said, Saul has put to death his thousands and David his tens of thousands.

bbe@1Samuel:18:12 @And Saul went in fear of David, because the Lord was with David and had gone away from Saul.

bbe@1Samuel:18:13 @So Saul sent him away, and made him a captain over a thousand; and he went about his business before the people.

bbe@1Samuel:18:16 @But David was loved by all Israel and Judah, for he went out and came in before them.

bbe@1Samuel:18:26 @And when his servants said these words to David, he was well pleased to be the son-in-law of the king. And the days were still not past.

bbe@1Samuel:18:27 @So David and his men got up and went, and put to death two hundred of the Philistines; and David took their private parts and gave the full number of them to the king, so that he might be the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him his daughter Michal for his wife.

bbe@1Samuel:18:29 @And Saul's fear of David became all the greater, and he went on hating him, day by day.

bbe@1Samuel:18:30 @Then the rulers of the Philistines went out to war: and whenever they went out, David did more wisely than all the other servants of Saul, so that his name became greatly honoured.

bbe@1Samuel:19:5 @For he put his life in danger and overcame the Philistine, and the Lord gave all Israel salvation: you saw it and were glad: why then are you sinning against him who has done no wrong, desiring the death of David without cause?

bbe@1Samuel:19:8 @And there was war again: and David went out fighting the Philistines, causing great destruction among them; and they went in flight before him.

bbe@1Samuel:19:10 @And Saul would have sent his spear through him, pinning him to the wall, but he got away and the spear went into the wall: and that night David went in flight and got away

bbe@1Samuel:19:12 @So Michal let David down through the window, and he went in flight and got away.

bbe@1Samuel:19:17 @And Saul said to Michal, why have you been false to me, letting my hater go and get safely away? And in answer Michal said to Saul, He said to me, Let me go, or I will put you to death.

bbe@1Samuel:19:18 @So David went in flight and got away and came to Ramah, to Samuel, and gave him an account of all Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and were living in Naioth.

bbe@1Samuel:19:22 @Then he himself went to Ramah, and came to the great water-spring in Secu; and questioning the people he said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, They are at Naioth in Ramah.

bbe@1Samuel:19:23 @And he went on from there to Naioth in Ramah: and the spirit of God came on him, and he went on, acting like a prophet, till he came to Naioth in Ramah.

bbe@1Samuel:20:1 @And David went in flight from Naioth in Ramah and came to Jonathan and said, What have I done? What is my crime and my sin against your father that he is attempting to take my life?

bbe@1Samuel:20:3 @But David took his oath again and said, Your father sees that I am dear to you; so he says to himself, Let Jonathan have no idea of this, for it will be a grief to him; but as the Lord is living, and as your soul is living, there is only a step between me and death.

bbe@1Samuel:20:7 @If he says, It is well, your servant will be at peace: but if he is angry, then it will be clear to you that he has an evil purpose in mind against me.

bbe@1Samuel:20:10 @Then David said to Jonathan, Who will give me word if your father gives you a rough answer?

bbe@1Samuel:20:11 @And Jonathan said to David, Come, let us go out into the country. And the two of them went out together into the open country.

bbe@1Samuel:20:23 @As for what you and I were talking of, the Lord is between you and me for ever.

bbe@1Samuel:20:24 @So David went to a secret place in the country: and when the new moon came, the king took his place at the feast.

bbe@1Samuel:20:28 @And answering Saul, Jonathan said, He made a request to me that he might go to Beth-lehem,

bbe@1Samuel:20:32 @And Jonathan, answering his father Saul, said to him, Why is he to be put to death? What has he done?

bbe@1Samuel:20:35 @Now in the morning, Jonathan went out into the fields at the time he had said to David, and he had a little boy with him.

bbe@1Samuel:20:38 @And Jonathan went on crying out after the boy, Be quick, do not keep waiting about, go quickly. And Jonathan's boy got the arrow and came back to his master.

bbe@1Samuel:20:41 @And when the boy had gone, David came from his secret place by the hill, and falling to the earth went down on his face three times: and they gave one another a kiss, weeping together, till David's grief was the greater.

bbe@1Samuel:20:42 @And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, for we two have taken an oath, in the name of the Lord, saying, The Lord will be between me and you, and between my seed and your seed for ever.

bbe@1Samuel:20:43 @Then David went away, and Jonathan went into the town.

bbe@1Samuel:21:4 @And the priest, answering David, said, I have no common bread here but there is holy bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women.

bbe@1Samuel:21:5 @And David in answer said to the priest, Certainly women have been kept from us; and as has been done before when I have gone out the arms of the young men were made holy, even though it was a common journey; how much more today will their arms be made holy.

bbe@1Samuel:21:10 @Then David got up and went in flight that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish, the king of Gath.

bbe@1Samuel:22:1 @So David went away from there and took cover in a strong place at Adullam; and his brothers and all his father's people, hearing of it, went down to him there.

bbe@1Samuel:22:2 @And everyone who was in trouble, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was bitter in soul, came together to him, and he became captain over them: about four hundred men were joined to him.

bbe@1Samuel:22:3 @And from there David went to Mizpeh in the land of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab, Let my father and mother come and make their living-place with you till it is clear to me what God will do for me.

bbe@1Samuel:22:4 @And he took them to the king of Moab and they went on living with him while David was in his safe place.

bbe@1Samuel:22:5 @And the prophet Gad said to David, Do not go on living in this place but go into the land of Judah. Then David went away and came to the woodland of Hereth.

bbe@1Samuel:22:6 @And news was given to Saul that David had been seen, and the men who were with him: now Saul was in Gibeah, seated under the tree in the high place, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were in their places before him.

bbe@1Samuel:22:7 @Then Saul said to his servants who were there about him, Give ear now, you Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give to every one of you fields and vine-gardens, will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands;

bbe@1Samuel:22:9 @Then Doeg, the Edomite, who was by the side of the servants of Saul, in answer said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub.

bbe@1Samuel:22:11 @Then the king sent for Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and for all the men of his father's family who were priests in Nob: and they all came to the king.

bbe@1Samuel:22:12 @And Saul said, Give ear now, O son of Ahitub. And answering he said, Here I am, my lord.

bbe@1Samuel:22:14 @Then Ahimelech answering said to the king, Who among all your servants is so true to you as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and is a captain of your armed men, and has a place of honour in your house?

bbe@1Samuel:22:17 @Then the king said to the runners who were waiting near him, Put the priests of the Lord to death; because they are on David's side, and having knowledge of his flight, did not give me word of it. But the king's servants would not put out their hands to make an attack on the Lord's priests.

bbe@1Samuel:22:20 @And Abiathar, one of the sons of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, got away and went in flight after David;

bbe@1Samuel:23:3 @And David's men said to him, Even here in Judah we are full of fear: how much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?

bbe@1Samuel:23:4 @Then David put the question to the Lord again, and the Lord answering said, Up! go down to Keilah; for I will give the Philistines into your hands.

bbe@1Samuel:23:5 @So David and his men went to Keilah, and had a fight with the Philistines, and took away their cattle, and put them to the sword with great destruction. So David was the saviour of the people of Keilah.

bbe@1Samuel:23:6 @Now when Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech, went in flight to David, he came down to Keilah with the ephod in his hand.

bbe@1Samuel:23:13 @Then David and his men, about six hundred of them, went out of Keilah, and got away wherever they were able to go. And Saul, hearing that David had got away from Keilah, did not go there.

bbe@1Samuel:23:16 @And Saul's son Jonathan went to David in Horesh, and made his hands strong in God;

bbe@1Samuel:23:17 @And said to him, Have no fear, for Saul my father will not get you into his power; and you will be king of Israel, and I will be by your side, and my father Saul is certain of this.

bbe@1Samuel:23:18 @And the two of them made an agreement before the Lord: and David went on living in Horesh, and Jonathan went back to his house

bbe@1Samuel:23:20 @So now, O king, have your soul's desire and come down, and we, for our part, will give him up into the king's hands.

bbe@1Samuel:23:24 @And they went back and came to Ziph before Saul: but David and his men were in the waste land of Maon, in the dry land south of the waste land.

bbe@1Samuel:23:25 @And Saul and his men went in search of him. And David had word of it, so he came down to the rock in the waste land of Maon. And Saul, hearing of this, went after David into the waste land of Maon.

bbe@1Samuel:23:26 @And Saul and his men went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men went on the other: and David's purpose was to get away as quickly as possible, for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men were making a circle round David and his men in order to take them.

bbe@1Samuel:23:28 @So turning back from going after David, Saul went against the Philistines: so that place was named Sela-hammah-lekoth.

bbe@1Samuel:23:29 @And from there, David went up and took cover in the safe place of En-gedi.

bbe@1Samuel:24:2 @Then Saul took three thousand of the best men out of all Israel, and went in search of David and his men on the rocks of the mountain goats.

bbe@1Samuel:24:3 @And on the way he came to a place where sheep were kept, where there was a hollow in the rock; and Saul went in for a private purpose. Now David and his men were in the deepest part of the hollow.

bbe@1Samuel:24:7 @So with these words David kept his servants back, and did not let them make an attack on Saul. And Saul got up and went on his way.

bbe@1Samuel:24:8 @And after that David came out of the hollow rock, and crying after Saul said, My lord the king. And when Saul gave a look back, David went down on his face and gave him honour.

bbe@1Samuel:24:12 @May the Lord be judge between me and you, and may the Lord give me my rights against you, but my hand will never be lifted up against you.

bbe@1Samuel:24:15 @So let the Lord be judge, and give a decision between me and you, and see and give support to my cause, and keep me from falling into your hands.

bbe@1Samuel:24:16 @Now when David had said these words to Saul, Saul said, Is this your voice, David, my son? And Saul was overcome with weeping.

bbe@1Samuel:24:22 @And David gave Saul his oath. And Saul went back to his house; but David and his men went up to their safe place.

bbe@1Samuel:25:1 @And death came to Samuel; and all Israel came together, weeping for him, and put his body in its resting-place in his house at Ramah. Then David went down to the waste land of Maon.

bbe@1Samuel:25:6 @And say this to my brother, May all be well for you: peace be to you and your house and all you have.

bbe@1Samuel:25:7 @I have had word that you have wool-cutters: now the keepers of your sheep have been with us, and we have done them no evil, and taken nothing of theirs while they were in Carmel.

bbe@1Samuel:25:8 @If your young men are questioned they will say the same thing. So now, let my young men have grace in your eyes, for we are come at a good time; please give anything you may have by you to your servants and to your son David.

bbe@1Samuel:25:10 @And Nabal gave them his answer and said, Who is David? who is the son of Jesse? there are a number of servants in these days running away from their masters.

bbe@1Samuel:25:12 @So David's young men, turning away, went back and gave him an account of everything he had said.

bbe@1Samuel:25:13 @And David said to his men, Put on your swords, every one of you. And every man put on his sword; and David did the same; and about four hundred men went up with David, and two hundred kept watch over their goods.

bbe@1Samuel:25:14 @But one of the young men said to Nabal's wife Abigail, David sent men from the waste land to say kind words to our master, and he gave them a rough answer.

bbe@1Samuel:25:15 @But these men have been very good to us; they did us no wrong and nothing of ours was touched while we were with them in the fields:

bbe@1Samuel:25:16 @But day and night they were like a wall round us while we were with them, looking after the sheep.

bbe@1Samuel:25:36 @And Abigail went back to Nabal; and he was feasting in his house like a king; and Nabal's heart was full of joy, for he had taken much wine; so she said nothing to him till dawn came.

bbe@1Samuel:25:37 @And in the morning, when the effect of the wine was gone, Nabal's wife gave him an account of all these things, and all the heart went out of him, and he became like stone.

bbe@1Samuel:25:42 @Then Abigail got up quickly and went on her ass, with five of her young women, after the men whom David had sent; and she became David's wife.

bbe@1Samuel:25:43 @And David had taken Ahinoam of Jezreel, to be his wife; these two were his wives.

bbe@1Samuel:26:2 @Then Saul went down to the waste land of Ziph, taking with him three thousand of the best men of Israel, to make search for David in the waste land of Ziph.

bbe@1Samuel:26:5 @And David got up and came to the place where Saul's tents were: and David had a view of the place where Saul was sleeping with Abner, the son of Ner, the captain of his army: and Saul was sleeping inside the ring of carts, and the tents of the people were all round him.

bbe@1Samuel:26:7 @So David and Abishai came down to the army by night: and Saul was sleeping inside the ring of carts with his spear planted in the earth by his head: and Abner and the people were sleeping round him.

bbe@1Samuel:26:12 @So David took the spear and the vessel of water from Saul's head; and they got away without any man seeing them, or being conscious of their coming, or awaking; for they were all sleeping because a deep sleep from the Lord had come on them.

bbe@1Samuel:26:13 @Then David went over to the other side, and took his place on the top of a mountain some distance away, with a great space between them;

bbe@1Samuel:26:14 @And crying out to the people and to Abner, the son of Ner, David said, Have you no answer to give, Abner? Then Abner said, Who is that crying out to the king?

bbe@1Samuel:26:25 @Then Saul said to David, May a blessing be on you, David, my son; you will do great things and without doubt you will overcome. Then David went on his way, and Saul went back to his place.

bbe@1Samuel:27:2 @So David and the six hundred men who were with him went over to Achish, the son of Maoch, king of Gath.

bbe@1Samuel:27:3 @And David and his men were living with Achish at Gath; every man had his family with him, and David had his two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel, and Abigail of Carmel, who had been the wife of Nabal.

bbe@1Samuel:27:4 @And Saul, hearing that David had gone to Gath, went after him no longer.

bbe@1Samuel:27:8 @And David and his men went up and made attacks on the Geshurites and the Girzites and the Amalekites; for these were the people who were living in the land from Telam on the way to Shur, as far as Egypt.

bbe@1Samuel:28:3 @Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel, after weeping for him, had put his body in its last resting-place in Ramah, his town. And Saul had put away from the land all those who had control of spirits and who made use of secret arts.

bbe@1Samuel:28:6 @And when Saul went for directions to the Lord, the Lord gave him no answer, by a dream or by the Urim or by the prophets.

bbe@1Samuel:28:8 @So Saul, putting on other clothing, so that he might not be seen to be the king, took two men with him and went to the woman by night; and he said, Now, with the help of the spirit which you have, make the person whose name I will give you come up.

bbe@1Samuel:28:15 @And Samuel said to Saul, Why have you made me come up, troubling my rest? And Saul in answer said, I am in great danger; for the Philistines are making war on me, and God has gone away from me and will no longer give me any answer, by the prophets or by dreams: so I have sent for you to make clear to me what I am to do

bbe@1Samuel:28:20 @Then Saul went down flat on the earth, and was full of fear because of Samuel's words: and there was no strength in him, for he had taken no food all that day or all that night.

bbe@1Samuel:28:25 @And she put it before Saul and his servants, and they had a meal. Then they got up and went away the same night.

bbe@1Samuel:29:2 @And the lords of the Philistines went on with their hundreds and their thousands, and David and his men came after with Achish.

bbe@1Samuel:29:4 @But the rulers of the Philistines were angry with him, and said to him, Make the man go back to the place you have given him; do not let him go down with us to the fight, or he may be turned against us and be false to us: for how will this man make peace with his lord? will it not be with the heads of these men?

bbe@1Samuel:29:9 @And Achish in answer said, It is true that in my eyes you are good, like an angel of God: but still, the rulers of the Philistines have said, He is not to go up with us to the fight.

bbe@1Samuel:29:11 @So David and his men got up early in the morning to go back to the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.

bbe@1Samuel:30:2 @And had made the women and all who were there, small and great, prisoners: they had not put any of them to death, but had taken them all away.

bbe@1Samuel:30:4 @Then David and the people who were with him gave themselves up to weeping till they were able to go on weeping no longer.

bbe@1Samuel:30:6 @And David was greatly troubled; for the people were talking of stoning him, because their hearts were bitter, every man sorrowing for his sons and his daughters: but David made himself strong in the Lord his God.

bbe@1Samuel:30:8 @Then David, questioning the Lord, said, Am I to go after this band? will I be able to overtake them? And in answer he said, Go after them, for you will certainly overtake them, and get back everything.

bbe@1Samuel:30:9 @So David went, and his six hundred men went with him, and they came to the stream Besor.

bbe@1Samuel:30:10 @And David, with four hundred men, went on: but two hundred of them were overcome with weariness, and not able to go across the stream.

bbe@1Samuel:30:13 @And David said to him, Whose man are you and where do you come from? And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master went on without me because three days back I became ill.

bbe@1Samuel:30:14 @We made an attack on the south part of the country of the Cherethites, and on the land which is Judah's, and on the south of Caleb; and we put Ziklag on fire.

bbe@1Samuel:30:17 @And David went on fighting them from evening till the evening of the day after; and not one of them got away but only four hundred young men who went in flight on camels.

bbe@1Samuel:30:21 @And David came to the two hundred men, who because of weariness had not gone with him, but were waiting at the stream Besor: and they went out, meeting David and the people who were with him; and when they came near them, they said, How are you?

bbe@1Samuel:30:22 @Then the bad and good-for-nothing men among those who went with David said, Because they did not go with us, we will give them nothing of the goods which we have got back, but only to every man his wife and children, so that he may take them and go.

bbe@1Samuel:30:24 @Who is going to give any attention to you in this question? for an equal part will be given to him who went to the fight and to him who was waiting by the goods: they are all to have the same.

bbe@1Samuel:30:26 @And when David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the goods to the responsible men of Judah, and to his friends, saying, Here is an offering for you from the goods of those who were fighting against the Lord;

bbe@1Samuel:30:27 @He sent to those who were in Beth-el, and in Ramah of the South, and in Jattir;

bbe@1Samuel:30:30 @And to those who were in Hormah and in Bor-ashan and in Athach;

bbe@1Samuel:31:1 @Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel: and the men of Israel went in flight before the Philistines, falling down wounded in Mount Gilboa.

bbe@1Samuel:31:7 @And when the men of Israel across the valley and on the other side of Jordan saw that the army of Israel was in flight and that Saul and his sons were dead, they came out of their towns and went in flight; and the Philistines came and took them for themselves.

bbe@2Samuel:1:2 @On the third day a man came from Saul's tents, with his clothing out of order and earth on his head: and when he came to David, he went down on the earth and gave him honour.

bbe@2Samuel:1:4 @And David said to him, How did things go? Give me the news. And in answer he said, The people have gone in flight from the fight, and a great number of them are dead; and Saul and his son Jonathan are dead.

bbe@2Samuel:1:7 @And looking back, he saw me and gave a cry to me. And answering him I said, Here am I.

bbe@2Samuel:1:11 @Then David gave way to bitter grief, and so did all the men who were with him:

bbe@2Samuel:1:12 @And till evening they gave themselves to sorrow and weeping, and took no food, weeping for Saul and for Jonathan, his son, and for the people of the Lord and for the men of Israel; because they had come to their end by the sword.

bbe@2Samuel:1:23 @Saul and Jonathan were loved and pleasing; in their lives and in their death they were not parted; they went more quickly than eagles, they were stronger than lions.

bbe@2Samuel:1:24 @O daughters of Israel, have sorrow for Saul, by whom you were delicately clothed in robes of red, with ornaments of gold on your dresses.

bbe@2Samuel:2:2 @So David went there, taking with him his two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel, and Abigail, the wife of Nabal of Carmel.

bbe@2Samuel:2:3 @And David took all his men with him, every man with his family: and they were living in the towns round Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:2:12 @And Abner, the son of Ner, with the servants of Saul's son Ish-bosheth, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.

bbe@2Samuel:2:13 @And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out and came face to face with them by the pool of Gibeon; and they took up their position, facing one another on opposite sides of the pool.

bbe@2Samuel:2:15 @So they got up and went over by number: twelve for Benjamin and Ish-bosheth and twelve of the servants of David.

bbe@2Samuel:2:16 @And every one got the other by the head, driving his sword into the other's side, so they all went down together: and that place was named the Field of Sides, and it is in Gibeon.

bbe@2Samuel:2:18 @There were three sons of Zeruiah there, Joab and Abishai and Asahel: and Asahel was as quick-footed as a roe of the fields.

bbe@2Samuel:2:19 @Asahel went running after Abner, not turning to the right or to the left.

bbe@2Samuel:2:23 @But still he did not go to one side: so Abner gave him a back blow in the stomach with his spear, so that the spear came out at his back; and he went down on the earth, wounded to death: and all those who came to the place where Asahel went down dead, came to a stop.

bbe@2Samuel:2:24 @But Joab and Abishai went after Abner: and the sun went down when they came to the hill of Ammah, which is to the east of the road through the waste land of Geba.

bbe@2Samuel:2:29 @And all that night Abner and his men went through the Arabah; they went over Jordan and through all Bithron and came to Mahanaim.

bbe@2Samuel:2:30 @And Joab came back from fighting Abner: and when he had got all his men together, it was seen that nineteen of David's men, in addition to Asahel, were not with them.

bbe@2Samuel:3:1 @Now there was a long war between Saul's people and David's people; and David became stronger and stronger, but those on Saul's side became more and more feeble.

bbe@2Samuel:3:5 @And the sixth, Ithream, whose mother was David's wife Eglah. These were the sons of David, whose birth took place in Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:3:6 @Now while there was war between Saul's people and David's people, Abner was making himself strong among the supporters of Saul.

bbe@2Samuel:3:8 @And Abner was very angry at the words of Ish-bosheth, and he said, Am I a dog's head of Judah? I am this day doing all in my power for the cause of your father Saul and for his brothers and his friends, and have not given you up into the hands of David, and now you say I have done wrong with a woman.

bbe@2Samuel:3:11 @And so great was Ish-bosheth's fear of Abner that he was not able to say a word in answer.

bbe@2Samuel:3:13 @And he said, It is well; I will make an agreement with you, but on one condition, which is, that when you come before me, Saul's daughter Michal is to come with you; till she comes you will not see my face.

bbe@2Samuel:3:16 @And her husband went with her as far as Bahurim, weeping while he went. Then Abner said to him, Go back. And he went back.

bbe@2Samuel:3:19 @And Abner said the same things to Benjamin: and he went to David in Hebron to make clear to him what seemed good to Israel and to all the people of Benjamin.

bbe@2Samuel:3:20 @So Abner, with twenty men, came to Hebron, to David. And David made a feast for Abner and the men who were with him.

bbe@2Samuel:3:21 @And Abner said to David, Now I will go, and make all Israel come to my lord the king, so that they may make an agreement with you, and your kingdom may be as wide as your heart's desire. Then David sent Abner away and he went in peace.

bbe@2Samuel:3:31 @And David said to Joab and all the people who were with him, Go in grief and put haircloth about you, in sorrow for Abner. And King David went after the dead body.

bbe@2Samuel:3:32 @And they put Abner's body to rest in Hebron; and the king and all the people were weeping loudly by the resting-place of Abner's body.

bbe@2Samuel:3:34 @Your hands were free, your feet were not chained: like the downfall of a man before evil men, so was your fall. And the weeping of the people over him went on again.

bbe@2Samuel:3:36 @And all the people took note of it and were pleased: like everything the king did, it was pleasing to the people.

bbe@2Samuel:4:1 @And when Saul's son Ish-bosheth had news that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.

bbe@2Samuel:4:4 @Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son whose feet were damaged. He was five years old when news of the death of Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel, and the woman who took care of him took him up and went in flight: and while she was getting him away as quickly as she was able, he had a fall and his feet were damaged. His name was Mephibosheth.

bbe@2Samuel:4:5 @And Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, went out and came to the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, when he was resting in the middle of the day. Now the woman who kept the door was cleaning grain, and sleep overcame her.

bbe@2Samuel:4:7 @And when they came into the house, Ish-bosheth was stretched on his bed in his bedroom; and they made an attack on him and put him to death, and, cutting off his head, they took it with them and went by the road through the Arabah all night.

bbe@2Samuel:4:9 @And David made answer to Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, By the living Lord, who has kept me safe from all my trouble,

bbe@2Samuel:5:1 @Then all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron and said, Truly, we are your bone and your flesh.

bbe@2Samuel:5:2 @In the past when Saul was king over us, it was you who went at the head of Israel when they went out or came in: and the Lord said to you, You are to be the keeper of my people Israel and their ruler.

bbe@2Samuel:5:6 @And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the people of the land: and they said to David, You will not come in here, but the blind and the feeble-footed will keep you out; for they said, David will not be able to come in here.

bbe@2Samuel:5:9 @So David took the strong tower for his living-place, naming it the town of David. And David took in hand the building of the town all round, starting from the Millo.

bbe@2Samuel:5:17 @And when the Philistines had news that David had been made king over Israel, they all went up in search of David; and David, hearing of it, went down to the strong place.

bbe@2Samuel:5:18 @And when the Philistines came, they went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.

bbe@2Samuel:5:20 @And David went to Baal-perazim, and overcame them there; and he said, The Lord has let the forces fighting against me be broken before me as a wall is broken by rushing waters. So that place was named Baal-perazim.

bbe@2Samuel:5:21 @And the Philistines, when they went in flight, did not take their images with them, and David and his men took them away.

bbe@2Samuel:5:22 @And the Philistines came up again, and went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.

bbe@2Samuel:5:23 @And when David went for directions to the Lord, he said, You are not to go up against them in front; but make a circle round them from the back and come on them opposite the spice-trees.

bbe@2Samuel:6:2 @And David, and all the people who were with him, went to Baal of Judah to get the ark of God, over which the holy name is named, the name of the Lord of armies, whose place is between the winged ones.

bbe@2Samuel:6:3 @And they put the ark of God on a new cart and took it out of the house of Abinadab which was on the hill: and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were the drivers of the cart.

bbe@2Samuel:6:4 @And Uzzah went by the side of the ark, while Ahio went before it.

bbe@2Samuel:6:5 @And David and all the men of Israel made melody before the Lord with all their power, with songs and with corded instruments and instruments of brass.

bbe@2Samuel:6:6 @And when they came to Nacon's grain-floor, Uzzah put his hand on the ark of God to keep it safe in its place, for the oxen were out of control.

bbe@2Samuel:6:12 @And they said to King David, The blessing of the Lord is on the family of Obed-edom and on all he has, because of the ark of God. And David went and took the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the town of David with joy.

bbe@2Samuel:6:13 @And when those who were lifting the ark of the Lord had gone six steps, he made an offering of an ox and a fat young beast.

bbe@2Samuel:6:19 @And he gave to every man and woman among all the people, among all the masses of Israel, a cake of bread and a measure of wine and a cake of dry grapes. Then all the people went away, every man to his house.

bbe@2Samuel:6:22 @And I will do even worse than this, and make myself even lower in your eyes: but the servant-girls of whom you were talking will give me honour.

bbe@2Samuel:7:7 @In all the places where I went with all the children of Israel, did I ever say to any of the judges of Israel, to whom I gave the care of my people Israel, Why have you not made me a house of cedar?

bbe@2Samuel:7:9 @And I have been with you wherever you went, cutting off before you all those who were against you; and I will make your name great, like the name of the greatest ones of the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:7:10 @And I will make a resting-place for my people Israel, planting them there, so that they may be living in the place which is theirs, and never again be moved; and never again will they be troubled by evil men as they were at the first,

bbe@2Samuel:7:18 @Then David the king went in and took his seat before the Lord, and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my family, that you have been my guide till now?

bbe@2Samuel:8:2 @And he overcame the Moabites, and he had them measured with a line when they were stretched out on the earth; marking out two lines for death and one full line for life. So the Moabites became servants to David and gave him offerings.

bbe@2Samuel:8:3 @And David overcame Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, when he went to make his power seen by the River.

bbe@2Samuel:8:4 @And David took from him one thousand, seven hundred horsemen and twenty thousand footmen: and David had the leg-muscles of the horses cut, only keeping enough of them for a hundred war-carriages.

bbe@2Samuel:8:5 @And when the Aramaeans of Damascus came to the help of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David put to the sword twenty-two thousand of the Aramaeans.

bbe@2Samuel:8:6 @And David put armed forces in Aram of Damascus: and the Aramaeans became servants to David and gave him offerings. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

bbe@2Samuel:8:14 @And he put armed forces in Edom; all through Edom he had armed forces stationed, and all the Edomites became servants to David. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

bbe@2Samuel:8:17 @And Zadok and Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, were priests; and Seraiah was the scribe;

bbe@2Samuel:8:18 @And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were priests

bbe@2Samuel:9:6 @And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, came to David, and falling down on his face, gave him honour. And David said, Mephibosheth. And answering he said, Your servant is here.

bbe@2Samuel:9:8 @And he went down on his face before the king, and said, What is your servant, for you to take note of a dead dog such as I am?

bbe@2Samuel:9:10 @And you and your sons and your servants are to take care of the land for him, and get in the fruit of it, so that your master's son may have food: but Mephibosheth, your master's son, will have a place at my table at all times. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.

bbe@2Samuel:9:12 @And Mephibosheth had a young son named Mica. And all the people living in the house of Ziba were servants to Mephibosheth.

bbe@2Samuel:9:13 @So Mephibosheth went on living in Jerusalem; for he took all his meals at the king's table; and he had not the use of his feet.

bbe@2Samuel:10:5 @When David had news of it, he sent men out with the purpose of meeting them on their way, for the men were greatly shamed: and the king said, Go to Jericho till your hair is long again, and then come back.

bbe@2Samuel:10:6 @And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves hated by David, they sent to the Aramaeans of Beth-rehob and Zobah, and got for payment twenty thousand footmen, and they got from the king of Maacah a thousand men, and from Tob twelve thousand.

bbe@2Samuel:10:8 @And the children of Ammon came out and put their forces in position at the way into the town: and the Aramaeans of Zobah and of Rehob, with the men of Tob and Maacah, were by themselves in the field.

bbe@2Samuel:10:9 @Now when Joab saw that their forces were in position against him in front and at his back, he took the best of the men of Israel and put them in line against the Aramaeans;

bbe@2Samuel:10:13 @Then Joab and the people with him went forward to the fight against the Aramaeans, and they went in flight before him.

bbe@2Samuel:10:14 @And when the children of Ammon saw the flight of the Aramaeans, they themselves went in flight from Abishai, and came into the town. So Joab went back from fighting the children of Ammon and came to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Samuel:10:16 @And Hadadezer sent for the Aramaeans who were on the other side of the River: and they came to Helam, with Shobach, the captain of Hadadezer's army, at their head.

bbe@2Samuel:10:17 @And word of this was given to David: and he got all Israel together and went over Jordan and came to Helam. And the Aramaeans put their forces in position against David, and made an attack on him.

bbe@2Samuel:10:18 @And the Aramaeans went in flight before Israel; and David put to the sword the men of seven hundred Aramaean war-carriages and forty thousand footmen, and Shobach, the captain of the army, was wounded, and came to his death there.

bbe@2Samuel:10:19 @And when all the kings who were servants of Hadadezer saw that they were overcome by Israel, they made peace with Israel and became their servants. So the Aramaeans, in fear, gave no more help to the children of Ammon.

bbe@2Samuel:11:4 @And David sent and took her; and she came to him, and he took her to his bed: (for she had been made clean;) then she went back to her house.

bbe@2Samuel:11:7 @And when Uriah came to him, David put questions to him about how Joab and the people were, and how the war was going.

bbe@2Samuel:11:8 @And David said to Uriah, Go down to your house and let your feet be washed. And Uriah went away from the king's house, and an offering from the king was sent after him.

bbe@2Samuel:11:13 @And when David sent for him, he took meat and drink with him, and David made him the worse for drink: and when evening came, he went to rest on his bed with the servants of his lord, but he did not go down to his house.

bbe@2Samuel:11:16 @So while Joab was watching the town, he put Uriah in the place where it was clear to him the best fighters were.

bbe@2Samuel:11:17 @And the men of the town went out and had a fight with Joab: and a number of David's men came to their death in the fight, and with them Uriah the Hittite.

bbe@2Samuel:11:22 @So the man went, and came to David, and gave him all the news which Joab had sent him to give; then David was angry with Joab and said, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall? who put Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, to death? did not a woman send a great stone down on him from the wall, putting him to death at Thebez? why did you go so near the wall?

bbe@2Samuel:11:23 @And the man said to David, Truly the men got the better of us, and came out against us into the open country, but we sent them back to the very doors of the town.

bbe@2Samuel:11:26 @And when the wife of Uriah had news that her husband was dead, she gave herself up to weeping for him.

bbe@2Samuel:11:27 @And when the days of weeping were past, David sent for her, and took her into his house, and she became his wife and gave him a son. But the Lord was not pleased with the thing David had done.

bbe@2Samuel:12:1 @And the Lord sent Nathan to David. And Nathan came to him and said, There were two men in the same town: one a man of great wealth, and the other a poor man.

bbe@2Samuel:12:2 @The man of wealth had great numbers of flocks and herds;

bbe@2Samuel:12:4 @Now a traveller came to the house of the man of wealth, but he would not take anything from his flock or his herd to make a meal for the traveller who had come to him, but he took the poor man's lamb and made it ready for the man who had come.

bbe@2Samuel:12:15 @Then Nathan went back to his house. And the hand of the Lord was on David's son, the child of Uriah's wife, and it became very ill.

bbe@2Samuel:12:16 @So David made prayer to God for the child; and he took no food day after day, and went in and, stretching himself out on the earth, was there all night.

bbe@2Samuel:12:17 @And the chief men of his house got up and went to his side to make him get up from the earth, but he would not; and he would not take food with them.

bbe@2Samuel:12:18 @And then on the seventh day the child's death took place. And David's servants were in fear of giving him the news of the child's death: for they said, Truly, while the child was still living he gave no attention when we said anything to him: what will he do to himself if we give him word that the child is dead?

bbe@2Samuel:12:19 @But when David saw that his servants were talking together quietly, he was certain that the child was dead: and he said to his servants, Is the child dead? and they said, He is.

bbe@2Samuel:12:20 @Then David got up from the earth, and after washing and rubbing himself with oil and changing his clothing, he went into the house of the Lord and gave worship: then he went back to his house, and at his order they put food before him and he had a meal.

bbe@2Samuel:12:21 @Then his servants said to him, Why have you been acting in this way? you were weeping and going without food while the child was still living; but when the child was dead, you got up and had a meal.

bbe@2Samuel:12:22 @And he said, While the child was still living I went without food and gave myself up to weeping: for I said, Who is able to say that the Lord will not have mercy on me and give the child life?

bbe@2Samuel:12:24 @And David gave comfort to his wife Bath-sheba, and he went in to her and had connection with her: and she had a son to whom she gave the name Solomon. And he was dear to the Lord.

bbe@2Samuel:12:29 @Then David got all the people together and went to Rabbah and made war on it and took it.

bbe@2Samuel:12:30 @And he took the crown of Milcom from his head; the weight of it was a talent of gold, and in it were stones of great price; and it was put on David's head. And he took a great store of goods from the town.

bbe@2Samuel:12:31 @And he took the people out of the town and put them to work with wood-cutting instruments, and iron grain-crushers, and iron axes, and at brick-making: this he did to all the towns of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Samuel:13:6 @So Amnon went to bed and made himself seem ill: and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, Please let my sister Tamar come and make me one or two cakes before my eyes, so that I may take food from her hand.

bbe@2Samuel:13:8 @So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was in bed. And she took paste and made cakes before his eyes, cooking them over the fire.

bbe@2Samuel:13:9 @And she took the cooking-pot, and put the cakes before him, but he would not take them. And Amnon said, Let everyone go away from me. So they all went out.

bbe@2Samuel:13:10 @Then Amnon said to Tamar, Take the food and come into my bedroom, so that I may take it from your hand. So Tamar took the cakes she had made and went with them into her brother Amnon's bedroom.

bbe@2Samuel:13:12 @And answering him, she said, O my brother, do not put shame on me; it is not right for such a thing to be done in Israel: do not this evil thing.

bbe@2Samuel:13:18 @Now she had on a long robe, such as in past times the king's virgin daughters were dressed in. Then the servant put her out, locking the door after her.

bbe@2Samuel:13:19 @And Tamar, in her grief, put dust on her head; and she put her hand on her head and went away crying loudly.

bbe@2Samuel:13:20 @And her brother Absalom said to her, Has your brother Amnon been with you? but now, let there be an end to your crying, my sister: he is your brother, do not take this thing to heart. So Tamar went on living uncomforted in her brother's house.

bbe@2Samuel:13:27 @But Absalom went on requesting him till he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him. And Absalom made a great feast like a feast for a king.

bbe@2Samuel:13:29 @So Absalom's servants did to Amnon as Absalom had given them orders. Then all the king's sons got up, and every man got on his beast and went in flight.

bbe@2Samuel:13:30 @Now while they were on their way, news was given to David that Absalom had put to death all the sons of the king and that not one of them was still living.

bbe@2Samuel:13:31 @Then the king got up in great grief, stretching himself out on the earth: and all his servants were by his side, with their clothing parted.

bbe@2Samuel:13:34 @But Absalom went in flight. And the young man who kept the watch, lifting up his eyes, saw that a great band of people was coming down the slope by the way of the Horons; and the watchman came and gave word to the king, saying, I saw men coming down by the way of the Horons, from the hillside.

bbe@2Samuel:13:36 @And while he was talking, the king's sons came, with weeping and loud cries: and the king and all his servants were weeping bitterly.

bbe@2Samuel:13:37 @So Absalom went in flight and came to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur, where he was for three years.

bbe@2Samuel:14:2 @And Joab sent to Tekoa and got from there a wise woman, and said to her, Now make yourself seem like one given up to grief, and put on the clothing of sorrow, not using any sweet oil for your body, but looking like one who for a long time has been weeping for the dead:

bbe@2Samuel:14:5 @And the king said to her, What is your trouble? And her answer was, Truly I am a widow, and my husband is dead.

bbe@2Samuel:14:6 @And I had two sons, and the two of them had a fight in the field, and there was no one to come between them, and one with a blow put the other to death.

bbe@2Samuel:14:7 @And now all the family is turned against me, your servant, saying, Give up him who was the cause of his brother's death, so that we may put him to death in payment for the life of his brother, whose life he took; and we will put an end to the one who will get the heritage: so they will put out my last burning coal, and my husband will have no name or offspring on the face of the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:14:14 @For death comes to us all, and we are like water drained out on the earth, which it is not possible to take up again; and God will not take away the life of the man whose purpose is that he who has been sent away may not be completely cut off from him.

bbe@2Samuel:14:16 @For the king will give ear, and take his servant out of the power of the man whose purpose is the destruction of me and my son together from the heritage of God.

bbe@2Samuel:14:18 @Then the king said to the woman, Now give me an answer to the question I am going to put to you; keep nothing back. And the woman said, Let my lord the king say on.

bbe@2Samuel:14:19 @And the king said, Is not the hand of Joab with you in all this? And the woman in answer said, By the life of your soul, my lord the king, it is not possible for anyone to go to the right hand or to the left from anything said by the king: your servant Joab gave me orders, and put all these words in my mouth:

bbe@2Samuel:14:23 @So Joab got up and went to Geshur and came back again to Jerusalem with Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:14:24 @And the king said, Let him go to his house, but let him not see my face. So Absalom went back to his house and did not see the face of the king.

bbe@2Samuel:14:26 @And when he had his hair cut, (which he did at the end of every year, because of the weight of his hair;) the weight of the hair was two hundred shekels by the king's weight.

bbe@2Samuel:14:32 @And Absalom's answer was, See, I sent to you saying, Come here, so that I may send you to the king to say, Why have I come back from Geshur? it would be better for me to be there still: let me now see the king's face, and if there is any sin in me, let him put me to death.

bbe@2Samuel:14:33 @So Joab went to the king and said these words to him: and when the king had sent for him, Absalom came, and went down on his face on the earth before the king: and the king gave him a kiss.

bbe@2Samuel:15:9 @And the king said to him, Go in peace. So he got up and went to Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:15:11 @And with Absalom, at his request, went two hundred men from Jerusalem, who were completely unconscious of his designs.

bbe@2Samuel:15:12 @And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, one of David's helpers, from Giloh his town, while he was making the offerings. And the design against David became strong, for more and more people were joined to Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:15:14 @And David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, Come, let us go in flight, or not one of us will be safe from Absalom: let us go without loss of time, or he will overtake us quickly and send evil on us, and put the town to the sword.

bbe@2Samuel:15:16 @So the king went out, taking with him all the people of his house, but for ten of his women, who were to take care of the house.

bbe@2Samuel:15:17 @And the king went out, and all his servants went after him, and made a stop at the Far House.

bbe@2Samuel:15:18 @And all the people went on by his side; and all the Cherethites and all the Pelethites and all the men of Ittai of Gath, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, went on before the king.

bbe@2Samuel:15:21 @And Ittai the Gittite in answer said, By the living Lord, and by the life of my lord the king, in whatever place my lord the king may be, for life or death, there will your servant be.

bbe@2Samuel:15:22 @And David said to Ittai, Go forward, then. And Ittai the Gittite went on, with all his men and all the little ones he had with him.

bbe@2Samuel:15:23 @And there was great weeping in all the country when all the people went through; and the king himself was waiting in the Kidron valley and all the people went by him in the direction of the olive-tree on the edge of the waste land.

bbe@2Samuel:15:30 @And David went up the slopes of the Mount of Olives weeping all the way, with his head covered and no shoes on his feet: and all the people who were with him, covering their heads, went up weeping.

bbe@2Samuel:15:37 @So Hushai, David's friend, went into the town, and Absalom came to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Samuel:16:1 @And when David had gone a little way past the top of the slope, Ziba, the servant of Mephibosheth, came to him, with two asses on which were two hundred cakes of bread and a hundred stems of dry grapes and a hundred summer fruits and a skin of wine.

bbe@2Samuel:16:2 @And David said to Ziba, What is your reason for this? And Ziba said, The asses are for the use of the king's people, and the bread and the fruit are food for the young men; and the wine is for drink for those who are overcome by weariness in the waste land.

bbe@2Samuel:16:12 @It may be that the Lord will take note of my wrongs, and give me back good in answer to his cursing of me today.

bbe@2Samuel:16:13 @So David and his men went on their way: and Shimei went by the hillside parallel with them, cursing and sending stones and dust at him.

bbe@2Samuel:16:20 @Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, Give your opinion now, what are we to do?

bbe@2Samuel:16:22 @So they put up the tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father's women before the eyes of all Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:16:23 @In those days the opinions of Ahithophel were valued as highly as if through him a man might get direction from God; so were they valued by David as much as by Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:17:1 @Then Ahithophel said to Absalom, Let me take out twelve thousand men and this very night I will go after David:

bbe@2Samuel:17:6 @And when Hushai came, Absalom said to him, This is what Ahithophel has said: are we to do as he says? if not, what is your suggestion?

bbe@2Samuel:17:12 @Then we will come on him in some place, wherever he may be, falling on him as the dew comes on the earth: and of him and all the men who are with him not one will get away with his life.

bbe@2Samuel:17:13 @And if he has gone into some town, then let all Israel take strong cords to that town, and we will have it pulled into the valley, till not one small stone is to be seen there.

bbe@2Samuel:17:17 @Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were waiting by En-rogel; and a servant-girl went from time to time and gave them news and they went with the news to King David, for it was not wise for them to let themselves be seen coming into the town.

bbe@2Samuel:17:18 @But a boy saw them, and gave word of it to Absalom: so the two of them went away quickly, and came to the house of a man in Bahurim who had a water-hole in his garden, and they went down into it.

bbe@2Samuel:17:20 @And Absalom's servants came to the woman at the house and said, Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said to them, They have gone from here to the stream. And after searching for them, and seeing nothing of them, they went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Samuel:17:21 @Then after the servants had gone away, they came up out of the water-hole and went to give King David the news; and they said, Get up and go quickly over the water, for such and such are Ahithophel's designs against you.

bbe@2Samuel:17:22 @So David and all the people who were with him went up over Jordan: when dawn came, every one of them had gone over Jordan.

bbe@2Samuel:17:23 @Now when Ahithophel saw that his suggestion was not acted on, he got his ass ready, and went back to his house, to the town where he came from, and having put his house in order, he put himself to death by hanging; so he came to his end and was put in the resting-place of his father

bbe@2Samuel:17:24 @And David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom, with all the men of Israel, went over Jordan.

bbe@2Samuel:18:1 @And David had the people who were with him numbered, and he put over them captains of thousands and captains of hundreds.

bbe@2Samuel:18:3 @But the people said, It is better for you not to go out: for if we are put to flight, they will not give a thought to us, and if death overtakes half of us, it will be nothing to them: but you are of more value than ten thousand of us: so it is better for you to be ready to come to our help from this town.

bbe@2Samuel:18:4 @And the king said to them, I will do whatever seems best to you. So the king took his place by the door of the town, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands.

bbe@2Samuel:18:6 @So the people went out into the field against Israel, and the fight took place in the woods of Ephraim.

bbe@2Samuel:18:7 @And the people of Israel were overcome there by the servants of David, and there was a great destruction that day, and twenty thousand men were put to the sword.

bbe@2Samuel:18:8 @And the fighting went on over all the face of the country: and the woods were responsible for more deaths than the sword.

bbe@2Samuel:18:9 @And Absalom came across some of David's men. And Absalom was seated on his mule, and the mule went under the thick branches of a great tree, and his head became fixed in the tree and he was lifted up between earth and heaven, and the beast under him went on.

bbe@2Samuel:18:17 @And they took Absalom's body and put it into a great hole in the wood, and put a great mass of stones over it: and every man of Israel went in flight to his tent.

bbe@2Samuel:18:21 @Then Joab said to the Cushite, Go and give the king word of what you have seen. And the Cushite, making a sign of respect to Joab, went off running.

bbe@2Samuel:18:23 @Whatever may come of it, he said, I will go. Then he said to him, Go. So Ahimaaz went running by the lowland road and overtook the Cushite.

bbe@2Samuel:18:24 @Now David was seated between the two town doors; and the watchman went up to the roof of the doorways, on the wall, and, lifting up his eyes, saw a man running by himself.

bbe@2Samuel:18:28 @And Ahimaaz, crying out to the king, said, It is well. And falling down before the king, with his face to the earth, he said, May the Lord your God be praised, who has given up the men who took up arms against my lord the king!

bbe@2Samuel:18:29 @And the king said, Is it well with the young man Absalom? And Ahimaaz said in answer, When Joab sent me, your servant, I saw a great outcry going on, but I had no knowledge of what it was.

bbe@2Samuel:18:32 @And the king said to the Cushite, Is the young man Absalom safe? And the Cushite said in answer, May all the king's haters and those who do evil against the king, be as that young man is!

bbe@2Samuel:18:33 @Then the king was much moved, and went up into the room over the door, weeping, and saying, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! if only my life might have been given for yours, O Absalom, my son, my son!

bbe@2Samuel:19:1 @And word was given to Joab that the king was weeping and sorrowing for Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:19:6 @For your haters, it seems, are dear to you, and your friends are hated. For you have made it clear that captains and servants are nothing to you: and now I see that if Absalom was living and we had all been dead today, it would have been right in your eyes.

bbe@2Samuel:19:9 @And through all the tribes of Israel the people were having arguments, saying, The king made us safe from the hands of those who were against us and made us free from the hands of the Philistines; and now he has gone in flight from the land, because of Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:19:10 @And Absalom, whom we made a ruler over us, is dead in the fight

bbe@2Samuel:19:14 @And the hearts of the men of Judah were moved like one man; so that they sent to the king, saying, Come back, with all your servants.

bbe@2Samuel:19:16 @And Shimei, the son of Gera, the Benjamite from Bahurim, got up quickly and went down with the men of Judah for the purpose of meeting King David;

bbe@2Samuel:19:17 @And with him a thousand men of Benjamin, and Ziba, the servant of Saul, with his fifteen sons and twenty servants, came rushing to Jordan before the king,

bbe@2Samuel:19:18 @And kept going across the river to take the people of the king's house over, and to do whatever was desired by the king. And Shimei, the son of Gera, went down on his face in the dust before the king, when he was about to go over Jordan,

bbe@2Samuel:19:19 @And said to him, Let me not be judged as a sinner in your eyes, O my lord, and do not keep in mind the wrong I did on the day when my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, or take it to heart.

bbe@2Samuel:19:24 @And Mephibosheth, the son of Saul's son, came down for the purpose of meeting the king; his feet had not been cared for or his hair cut or his clothing washed from the day when the king went away till the day when he came back in peace.

bbe@2Samuel:19:26 @And he said in answer, Because of the deceit of my servant, my lord king: for I, your servant, said to him, You are to make ready an ass and on it I will go with the king, for your servant has not the use of his feet.

bbe@2Samuel:19:28 @For all my father's family were only dead men before my lord the king: and still you put your servant among those whose place is at the king's table. What right then have I to say anything more to the king?

bbe@2Samuel:19:29 @And the king said, Say nothing more about these things. I say, Let there be a division of the land between Ziba and you.

bbe@2Samuel:19:31 @And Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim; and he went on as far as Jordan with the king to take him across Jordan.

bbe@2Samuel:19:38 @And the king said in answer, Let Chimham go over with me, and I will do for him whatever seems good to you: and whatever your desire is, I will do it for you.

bbe@2Samuel:19:39 @Then all the people went over Jordan, and the king went over: and the king gave Barzillai a kiss, with his blessing; and he went back to his place.

bbe@2Samuel:19:40 @So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went with him: and all the people of Judah, as well as half the people of Israel, took the king on his way.

bbe@2Samuel:19:42 @And all the men of Judah gave this answer to the men of Israel, Because the king is our near relation: why then are you angry about this? have we taken any of the king's food, or has he given us any offering?

bbe@2Samuel:19:43 @And in answer to the men of Judah, the men of Israel said, We have ten parts in the king, and we are the first in order of birth: why did you make nothing of us? and were we not the first to make suggestions for getting the king back? And the words of the men of Judah were more violent than the words of the men of Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:20:1 @Now by chance there was present a good-for-nothing person named Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he, sounding the horn, said, We have no part in David, or any interest in the son of Jesse: let every man go to his tent, O Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:20:2 @So all the men of Israel, turning away from David, went after Sheba, the son of Bichri: but the men of Judah were true to their king, going with him from Jordan as far as Jerusalem.

bbe@2Samuel:20:3 @And David came to his house at Jerusalem: and the king took the ten women to whom he had given the care of the house, and had them shut up, and gave them the necessaries of life, but did not go near them. So they were shut up till the day of their death, living as widows.

bbe@2Samuel:20:5 @So Amasa went to get all the men of Judah together, but he took longer than the time David had given him.

bbe@2Samuel:20:7 @So there went after Abishai, Joab and the Cherethites and the Pelethites and all the fighting-men; they went out of Jerusalem to overtake Sheba, the son of Bichri.

bbe@2Samuel:20:8 @When they were at the great stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came face to face with them. Now Joab had on his war-dress, and round him a band from which his sword was hanging in its cover; and while he was walking, it came out, falling to the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:20:9 @And Joab said to Amasa, Is it well, my brother? And with his right hand he took him by the hair of his chin to give him a kiss.

bbe@2Samuel:20:10 @But Amasa did not see danger from the sword which was now in Joab's left hand, and Joab put it through his stomach so that his inside came out on to the earth, and he did not give him another blow. So Joab and his brother Abishai went on after Sheba, the son of Bichri.

bbe@2Samuel:20:13 @When he had been taken off the road, all the people went on after Joab in search of Sheba, the son of Bichri.

bbe@2Samuel:20:14 @And Sheba went through all the tribes of Israel, to Abel of Beth-maacah; and all the Bichrites came together and went in after him.

bbe@2Samuel:20:17 @And he came near, and the woman said, Are you Joab? And he said in answer, I am. Then she said, Give ear to your servant's words. And he said, I am giving ear.

bbe@2Samuel:20:20 @And Joab, answering her, said, Far, far be it from me to be a cause of death or destruction;

bbe@2Samuel:20:22 @Then the woman in her wisdom had talk with all the town. And they had Sheba's head cut off and sent out to Joab. And he had the horn sounded, and sent them all away from the town, every man to his tent. And Joab went back to Jerusalem to the king.

bbe@2Samuel:20:25 @And Sheva was the scribe, and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;

bbe@2Samuel:21:1 @In the days of David they were short of food for three years, year after year; and David went before the Lord for directions. And the Lord said, On Saul and on his family there is blood, because he put the Gibeonites to death.

bbe@2Samuel:21:2 @Then the king sent for the Gibeonites; (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but were the last of the Amorites, to whom the children of Israel had given an oath; but Saul, in his passion for the children of Israel and Judah, had made an attempt on their lives:)

bbe@2Samuel:21:4 @And the Gibeonites said to him, It is not a question of silver and gold between us and Saul or his family; and it is not in our power to put to death any man in Israel. And he said, Say, then, what am I to do for you?

bbe@2Samuel:21:5 @And they said to the king, As for the man by whom we were wasted, and who made designs against us to have us completely cut off from the land of Israel,

bbe@2Samuel:21:6 @Let seven men of his family be given up to us and we will put an end to them by hanging them before the Lord in Gibeon, on the hill of the Lord. And the king said, I will give them.

bbe@2Samuel:21:7 @But the king did not give up Mephibosheth, the son of Saul's son Jonathan, because of the Lord's oath made between David and Jonathan, the son of Saul.

bbe@2Samuel:21:12 @And David went and took the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had taken them away secretly from the public place of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had put them, hanging up the bodies there on the day when they put Saul to death in Gilboa:

bbe@2Samuel:21:15 @And the Philistines went to war again with Israel; and David went down with his people, and while they were at Gob they had a fight with the Philistines:

bbe@2Samuel:21:16 @And there came against David one of the offspring of the Rephaim, whose spear was three hundred shekels of brass in weight, and having a new sword, he made an attempt to put David to death.

bbe@2Samuel:21:20 @And again there was war at Gath, where there was a very tall man, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet; he was one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

bbe@2Samuel:21:22 @These four were of the offspring of the Rephaim in Gath; and they came to their end by the hands of David and his servants.

bbe@2Samuel:22:3 @My God, my Rock, in him will I put my faith; my breastplate, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my safe place; my saviour, who keeps me safe from the violent man.

bbe@2Samuel:22:6 @The cords of hell were round me: the nets of death came on me.

bbe@2Samuel:22:7 @In my trouble my voice went up to the Lord, and my cry to my God: my voice came to his hearing in his holy Temple, and my prayer came to his ears.

bbe@2Samuel:22:8 @Then the earth was moved with a violent shock; the bases of heaven were moved and shaking, because he was angry.

bbe@2Samuel:22:9 @There went up a smoke from his nose, and a fire of destruction from his mouth: coals were lighted by it.

bbe@2Samuel:22:10 @The heavens were bent, so that he might come down; and it was dark under his feet.

bbe@2Samuel:22:11 @And he went through the air, seated on a storm-cloud: going quickly on the wings of the wind.

bbe@2Samuel:22:13 @Before his shining light his dark clouds went past, raining ice and coals of fire.

bbe@2Samuel:22:15 @And he sent out his arrows, driving them in all directions; by his flames of fire they were troubled.

bbe@2Samuel:22:16 @Then the deep beds of the sea were seen, and the bases of the world were uncovered, because of the Lord's wrath, because of the breath of his mouth

bbe@2Samuel:22:18 @He made me free from my strong hater, from those who were against me, because they were stronger than I.

bbe@2Samuel:22:23 @For all his decisions were before me, and I did not put away his laws from me.

bbe@2Samuel:22:42 @They were crying out, but there was no one to come to their help: even to the Lord, but he gave them no answer.

bbe@2Samuel:22:43 @Then they were crushed as small as the dust of the earth, stamped down under my feet like the waste of the streets.

bbe@2Samuel:23:10 @He was with David and went on fighting the Philistines till his hand became tired and stiff from gripping his sword: and that day the Lord gave a great salvation, and the people came back after him only to take the goods of the Philistines.

bbe@2Samuel:23:11 @After him was Shammah, the son of Ela the Hararite. And the Philistines came together in Lehi, where there was a bit of land full of seed; and the people went in flight from the Philistines.

bbe@2Samuel:23:13 @And three of the thirty went down at the start of the grain-cutting, and they came to David at the strong place of Adullam; and the band of Philistines had taken up their position in the valley of Rephaim.

bbe@2Samuel:23:20 @And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, a fighting man of Kabzeel, had done great acts; he put to death the two sons of Ariel of Moab: he went down into a hole and put a lion to death in time of snow:

bbe@2Samuel:23:21 @And he made an attack on an Egyptian, a tall man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a stick, and pulling the spear out of the hands of the Egyptian, put him to death with that same spear.

bbe@2Samuel:23:22 @These were the acts of Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, who had a great name among the thirty men of war.

bbe@2Samuel:24:2 @And the king said to Joab and the captains of the army, who were with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan as far as Beer-sheba, and have all the people numbered, so that I may be certain of the number of the people.

bbe@2Samuel:24:4 @But the king's order was stronger than Joab and the captains of the army. And Joab and the captains of the army went out from the king, to take the number of the children of Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:24:5 @And they went over Jordan, and starting from Aroer, from the town which is in the middle of the valley, they went in the direction of the Gadites, and on to Jazer;

bbe@2Samuel:24:7 @And to the walled town of Tyre, and to all the towns of the Hivites and the Canaanites: and they went out to the South of Judah at Beer-sheba.

bbe@2Samuel:24:8 @So after going through all the land in every direction, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.

bbe@2Samuel:24:9 @And Joab gave the king the number of all the people: there were in Israel eight hundred thousand fighting men able to take up arms; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand.

bbe@2Samuel:24:13 @So Gad came to David, and gave him word of this and said to him, Are there to be three years when there is not enough food in your land? or will you go in flight from your haters for three months, while they go after you? or will you have three days of violent disease in your land? take thought and say what answer I am to give to him who sent me.

bbe@2Samuel:24:19 @So David went up, as Gad had said and as the Lord had given orders.

bbe@2Samuel:24:20 @And Araunah, looking out, saw the king and his servants coming to him: and Araunah went out, and went down on his face to the earth before the king

bbe@1Kings:1:7 @And he had talk with Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest; and they were on his side and gave him their support.

bbe@1Kings:1:15 @Then Bath-sheba went into the king's room; now the king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammite was waiting on him.

bbe@1Kings:1:16 @And Bath-sheba went down on her face on the earth before the king giving him honour. And he said, What is your desire?

bbe@1Kings:1:23 @And they said to the king, Here is Nathan the prophet. And when he came in before the king, he went down on his face on the earth.

bbe@1Kings:1:28 @Then King David in answer said, Send for Bath-sheba to come to me. And she came in and took her place before the king.

bbe@1Kings:1:31 @Then Bath-sheba went down on her face on the earth before the king giving him honour, and said, May my lord King David go on living for ever.

bbe@1Kings:1:36 @And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, answering the king, said, So be it: and may the Lord, the God of my lord the king, say so.

bbe@1Kings:1:38 @So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down and put Solomon on King David's beast and took him to Gihon.

bbe@1Kings:1:40 @And all the people came up after him, piping with pipes, and they were glad with great joy, so that the earth was shaking with the sound.

bbe@1Kings:1:41 @And it came to the ears of Adonijah and all the guests who were with him, when their meal was ended. And Joab, hearing the sound of the horn, said, What is the reason of this noise as if the town was worked up?

bbe@1Kings:1:42 @And while the words were on his lips, Jonathan, the son of Abiathar the priest, came; and Adonijah said, Come in; for you are a man of good faith and the news which you have for us will be good.

bbe@1Kings:1:43 @And Jonathan, answering, said to Adonijah, Not so, but our lord King David has made Solomon king:

bbe@1Kings:1:49 @And all the guests of Adonijah got up in fear and went away, every man to his place.

bbe@1Kings:1:50 @And Adonijah himself was full of fear because of Solomon; and he got up and went to the altar, and put his hands on its horns.

bbe@1Kings:2:3 @And keep the orders of the Lord your God, walking in his ways, keeping his laws and his orders and his rules and his words, as they are recorded in the law of Moses; so that you may do well in all you do and wherever you go,

bbe@1Kings:2:7 @But be good to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be guests at your table; for so they came to me when I went in flight from Absalom your brother.

bbe@1Kings:2:8 @Now you have with you Shimei, the son of Gera the Benjamite of Bahurim, who put a bitter curse on me on the day when I went to Mahanaim; but he came down to see me at Jordan, and I gave him my oath by the Lord, saying, I will not put you to death by the sword.

bbe@1Kings:2:10 @Then David went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David.

bbe@1Kings:2:19 @So Bath-sheba went to King Solomon to have talk with him on Adonijah's account. And the king got up to come to her, and went down low to the earth before her; then he took his place on the king's seat and had a seat made ready for the king's mother and she took her place at his right hand.

bbe@1Kings:2:22 @Then King Solomon made answer and said to his mother, Why are you requesting me to give Abishag the Shunammite to Adonijah? Take the kingdom for him in addition, for he is my older brother, and Abiathar the priest and Joab, the son of Zeruiah, are on his side.

bbe@1Kings:2:26 @And to Abiathar the priest the king said, Go to Anathoth, to your fields; for death would be your right reward; but I will not put you to death now, because you took up the ark of the Lord God before David my father, and you were with him in all his troubles.

bbe@1Kings:2:28 @And news of this came to Joab; for Joab had been one of Adonijah's supporters, though he had not been on Absalom's side. Then Joab went in flight to the Tent of the Lord, and put his hands on the horns of the altar.

bbe@1Kings:2:30 @And Benaiah came to the Tent of the Lord and said to him, The king says, Come out. And he said, No; but let death come to me here. And Benaiah went back to the king and gave him word of the answer which Joab had given.

bbe@1Kings:2:34 @So Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, went up, and falling on him, put him to death; and his body was put to rest in his house in the waste land.

bbe@1Kings:2:38 @And Shimei said to the king, Very well! as my lord the king has said, so will your servant do. And for a long time Shimei went on living in Jerusalem.

bbe@1Kings:2:39 @But after three years, two of the servants of Shimei went in flight to Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And word was given to Shimei that his servants had gone to Gath.

bbe@1Kings:2:40 @Then Shimei got up, and making ready his ass, he went to Gath, to Achish, in search of his servants; and he sent and got them from Gath.

bbe@1Kings:2:42 @Then the king sent for Shimei, and said to him, Did I not make you take an oath by the Lord, protesting to you and saying, Be certain that on the day when you go out from here, wherever you go, death will overtake you? and you said to me, Very well!

bbe@1Kings:2:46 @So the king gave orders to Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada; and he went out and, falling on him, put him to death. And Solomon's authority over the kingdom was complete.

bbe@1Kings:3:1 @Solomon became the son-in-law of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter as his wife, keeping her in the town of David, till the house he was building for himself, and the house of the Lord and the wall round Jerusalem, were complete.

bbe@1Kings:3:2 @But all this time the people were making their offerings in the high places, because no house had been put up to the name of the Lord till those days.

bbe@1Kings:3:4 @And the king went to Gibeon to make an offering there, because that was the chief high place: it was Solomon's way to make a thousand burned offerings on that altar.

bbe@1Kings:3:10 @Now these words and Solomon's request were pleasing to the Lord

bbe@1Kings:3:11 @And God said to him, Because your request is for this thing, and not for long life for yourself or for wealth or for the destruction of your haters, but for wisdom to be a judge of causes;

bbe@1Kings:3:13 @And with this I have given you what you made no request for: wealth and honour, so that no king was ever your equal.

bbe@1Kings:3:15 @And Solomon, awakening, saw that it was a dream; then he came to Jerusalem, where he went before the ark of the agreement of the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings; and he made a feast for all his servants.

bbe@1Kings:3:18 @And three days after the birth of my child, this woman had a child: we were together, no other-person was with us in the house but we two only.

bbe@1Kings:3:24 @Then he said, Get me a sword. So they went and put a sword before the king.

bbe@1Kings:3:26 @Then the mother of the living child came forward, for her heart went out to her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the child; do not on any account put it to death. But the other woman said, It will not be mine or yours; let it be cut in two.

bbe@1Kings:3:27 @Then the king made answer and said, Give her the child, and do not put it to death; she is the mother of it.

bbe@1Kings:3:28 @And news of this decision which the king had made went through all Israel; and they had fear of the king, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to give decisions.

bbe@1Kings:4:2 @And these were his chief men: Azariah, the son of Zadok, was the priest;

bbe@1Kings:4:3 @Elihoreph and Ahijah, the sons of Shisha, were scribes; Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the recorder;

bbe@1Kings:4:4 @Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was head of the army; Zadok and Abiathar were priests;

bbe@1Kings:4:7 @And Solomon put twelve overseers over all Israel, to be responsible for the stores needed for the king and those of his house; every man was responsible for one month in the year.

bbe@1Kings:4:19 @Geber, the son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, the country of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and Og, king of Bashan; and one overseer had authority over all the overseers who were in the land.

bbe@1Kings:4:20 @Judah and Israel were as great in number as the sand by the seaside, and they took their food and drink with joy in their hearts.

bbe@1Kings:4:21 @And Solomon was ruler over all the kingdoms from the River to the land of the Philistines, and as far as the edge of Egypt; men gave him offerings and were his servants all the days of his life.

bbe@1Kings:4:23 @Ten fat oxen and twenty oxen from the fields, and a hundred sheep, in addition to harts and gazelles and roes and fat fowls.

bbe@1Kings:4:25 @So Judah and Israel were living safely, every man under his vine and his fig-tree, from Dan as far as Beer-sheba, all the days of Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:4:26 @And Solomon had four thousand boxed-off spaces for horses for his carriages, and twelve thousand horsemen.

bbe@1Kings:5:3 @You have knowledge that David my father was not able to make a house for the name of the Lord his God, because of the wars which were round him on every side, till the Lord put all those who were against him under his feet.

bbe@1Kings:5:6 @So now, will you have cedar-trees from Lebanon cut down for me, and my servants will be with your servants; and I will give you payment for your servants at whatever rate you say; for it is common knowledge that we have no such wood-cutters among us as the men of Zidon.

bbe@1Kings:5:11 @And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of grain, as food for his people, and twenty measures of clear oil; this he did every year.

bbe@1Kings:5:12 @Now the Lord had given Solomon wisdom, as he had said to him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and they made an agreement together

bbe@1Kings:5:14 @And sent them to Lebanon in bands of ten thousand every month: for a month they were working in Lebanon and for two months in their country, and Adoniram was in control of them.

bbe@1Kings:5:17 @By the king's orders great stones, stones of high price, were cut out, so that the base of the house might be made of squared stone.

bbe@1Kings:6:2 @The house which Solomon made for the Lord was sixty cubits long, twenty cubits wide and thirty cubits high.

bbe@1Kings:6:3 @The covered way before the Temple of the house was twenty cubits long, as wide as the house, and ten cubits wide in front of the house.

bbe@1Kings:6:6 @The lowest line of them being five cubits wide, the middle six cubits wide and the third seven cubits; for there was a space all round the outside walls of the house so that the boards supporting the rooms did not have to be fixed in the walls of the house.

bbe@1Kings:6:7 @(And the stones used in the building of the house were squared at the place where they were cut out; there was no sound of hammer or axe or any iron instrument while they were building the house.)

bbe@1Kings:6:8 @The door to the lowest side rooms was in the right side of the house; and they went up by twisting steps into the middle rooms, and from the middle into the third.

bbe@1Kings:6:15 @The walls of the house were covered inside with cedar-wood boards; from the floor to the roof of the house they were covered inside with wood; and the floor was covered with boards of cypress-wood.

bbe@1Kings:6:16 @And at the back of the house a further space of twenty cubits was shut in with boards of cedar-wood, for the inmost room.

bbe@1Kings:6:18 @(All the inside of the house was cedar-wood, ornamented with designs of buds and flowers; no stonework was to be seen inside.)

bbe@1Kings:6:20 @And the inmost room was twenty cubits square and twenty cubits high, plated over with clear gold, and he made an altar of cedar-wood, plating it with gold.

bbe@1Kings:6:22 @Plates of gold were put all through the house till it was covered completely (and the altar in the inmost room was all covered with gold).

bbe@1Kings:6:25 @The two winged ones were ten cubits high, of the same size and form.

bbe@1Kings:6:26 @The two of them were ten cubits high.

bbe@1Kings:6:27 @These were placed inside the inner house, their outstretched wings touching the walls of the house, one touching one wall and one the other, while their other wings were touching in the middle.

bbe@1Kings:6:28 @These winged ones were plated over with gold.

bbe@1Kings:6:29 @And all the walls of the house inside and out were ornamented with forms of winged ones and palm-trees and open flowers.

bbe@1Kings:6:32 @On the olive-wood doors were cut designs of winged ones and palm-trees and open flowers, all of them, with the doors, plated with gold.

bbe@1Kings:6:33 @Then he made pillars of olive-wood for the way into the Temple; the pillars were square:

bbe@1Kings:6:35 @These were ornamented with designs of winged ones and palm-trees and open flowers, plated over with gold.

bbe@1Kings:7:3 @And it was covered with cedar over the forty-five supports which were on the pillars, fifteen in a line.

bbe@1Kings:7:4 @There were three lines of window-frames, window facing window in every line.

bbe@1Kings:7:9 @All these buildings were made, inside and out, from base to crowning stone, and outside to the great walled square, of highly priced stone, cut to different sizes with cutting-instruments.

bbe@1Kings:7:11 @Overhead were highly priced stones cut to measure, and cedar-wood.

bbe@1Kings:7:15 @He it was who made the two brass pillars; the first pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a line of twelve cubits went round it; and the second was the same.

bbe@1Kings:7:16 @And he made the two crowns to be put on the tops of the pillars, of brass made soft in the fire; the crowns were five cubits high

bbe@1Kings:7:17 @There were nets of open-work for the crowns on the tops of the pillars, a net of open-work for one and a net of open-work for the other.

bbe@1Kings:7:19 @The crowns on the tops of the pillars were ornamented with a design of flowers, and were four cubits across.

bbe@1Kings:7:20 @And there were crowns on the two pillars near the round part by the network, and there were two hundred apples in lines round every crown.

bbe@1Kings:7:22 @The tops of the pillars had a design of flowers; and the work of making the pillars was complete.

bbe@1Kings:7:24 @And under the edge of it, circling it all round for ten cubits, were two lines of flower buds, made together with it from liquid metal.

bbe@1Kings:7:25 @It was supported on twelve oxen, with their back parts turned to the middle of it, three of them facing to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east; the vessel was resting on top of them.

bbe@1Kings:7:26 @It was as thick as a man's open hand, and was curved like the edge of a cup, like the flower of a lily: it would take two thousand baths.

bbe@1Kings:7:28 @And the bases were made in this way; their sides were square, fixed in a framework;

bbe@1Kings:7:29 @And on the square sides between the frames were lions, oxen, and winged ones; and the same on the frame; and over and under the lions and the oxen and the winged ones were steps.

bbe@1Kings:7:30 @Every base had four wheels of brass, turning on brass rods, and their four angles had angle-plates under them; the angle-plates under the base were of metal, and there were ornaments at the side of every one.

bbe@1Kings:7:31 @The mouth of it inside the angle-plate was one cubit across; it was round like a pillar, a cubit and a half across; it had designs cut on it; the sides were square, not round.

bbe@1Kings:7:32 @The four wheels were under the frames, and the rods on which the wheels were fixed were in the base; the wheels were a cubit and a half high.

bbe@1Kings:7:33 @The wheels were made like carriage-wheels, the rods on which they were fixed, the parts forming their edges, their rods and the middle points of them, were all formed out of liquid metal.

bbe@1Kings:7:34 @And there were four angle-plates at the four angles of every base, forming part of the structure of the base.

bbe@1Kings:7:45 @And the pots and the spades and the basins; all the vessels which Hiram made for King Solomon, for the house of the Lord, were of polished brass.

bbe@1Kings:7:46 @He made them of liquid metal in the lowland of Jordan, at the way across the river, at Adama, between Succoth and Zarethan.

bbe@1Kings:8:5 @And King Solomon and all the men of Israel who had come together there, were with him before the ark, making offerings of sheep and oxen more than might be numbered.

bbe@1Kings:8:7 @For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.

bbe@1Kings:8:8 @The rods were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place, in front of the inmost room; but they were not seen from outside: and there they are to this day.

bbe@1Kings:8:11 @So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud, for the house of the Lord was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:8:14 @Then, turning his face about, the king gave a blessing to all the men of Israel; and they were all on their feet together.

bbe@1Kings:8:18 @But the Lord said to David my father, You did well to have in your heart the desire to make a house for my name;

bbe@1Kings:8:46 @If they do wrong against you, (for no man is without sin,) and you are angry with them and give them up into the power of those who are fighting against them, so that they take them away as prisoners into a strange land, far off or near;

bbe@1Kings:8:47 @And if they take thought, in the land where they are prisoners, and are turned again to you, crying out in prayer to you in that land, and saying, We are sinners, we have done wrong, we have done evil;

bbe@1Kings:8:50 @Answering with forgiveness the people who have done wrong against you, and overlooking the evil which they have done against you; let those who made them prisoners be moved with pity for them, and have pity on them;

bbe@1Kings:8:59 @And may these my words, the words of my prayer to the Lord, be before the Lord our God day and night, so that he may see right done to his servant and to his people Israel, day by day as we have need.

bbe@1Kings:8:62 @Now the king, and all Israel with him, were making offerings before the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:8:63 @And Solomon gave to the Lord for peace-offerings, twenty-two thousand oxen and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel kept the feast of the opening of the Lord's house.

bbe@1Kings:8:65 @So Solomon and all Israel with him, a very great meeting, (for the people had come together from the way into Hamath to the river of Egypt,) kept the feast at that time before the Lord our God, for two weeks, even fourteen days.

bbe@1Kings:8:66 @And on the eighth day he sent the people away, and, blessing the king, they went to their tents full of joy and glad in their hearts, because of all the good which the Lord had done to David his servant and to Israel his people.

bbe@1Kings:9:1 @Now when Solomon came to the end of building the house of the Lord and the king's house, and all Solomon's desires, which he had in mind were effected;

bbe@1Kings:9:9 @And their answer will be, Because they were turned away from the Lord their God, who took their fathers out of the land of Egypt; they took for themselves other gods and gave them worship and became their servants: that is why the Lord has sent all this evil on them.

bbe@1Kings:9:10 @Now at the end of twenty years, in which time Solomon had put up the two houses, the house of the Lord and the king's house,

bbe@1Kings:9:11 @(Hiram, king of Tyre, had given Solomon cedar-trees and cypress-trees and gold, as much as he had need of,) King Solomon gave Hiram twenty towns in the land of Galilee.

bbe@1Kings:9:13 @And he said, What sort of towns are these which you have given me, my brother? So they were named the land of Cabul, to this day.

bbe@1Kings:9:14 @And Hiram sent the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold.

bbe@1Kings:9:17 @... and Solomon was the builder of Gezer and Beth-horon the lower,

bbe@1Kings:9:20 @As for the rest of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not children of Israel;

bbe@1Kings:9:21 @Their children who were still in the land, and whom the children of Israel had not been able to put to complete destruction, them did Solomon put to forced work, to this day.

bbe@1Kings:9:22 @But Solomon did not put the children of Israel to forced work; they were the men of war, his servants, his captains, and his chiefs, captains of his war-carriages and of his horsemen.

bbe@1Kings:9:23 @These were the chiefs of the overseers of Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, in authority over the people who did the work.

bbe@1Kings:9:27 @Hiram sent his servants, who were experienced seamen, in the sea-force with Solomon's men.

bbe@1Kings:9:28 @And they came to Ophir, where they got four hundred and twenty talents of gold, and took it back to King Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:10:2 @And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels weighted down with spices, and stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.

bbe@1Kings:10:3 @And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which the king did not make clear to her.

bbe@1Kings:10:5 @And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.

bbe@1Kings:10:7 @But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and now I see that it was not half the story; your wisdom and your wealth are much greater than they said.

bbe@1Kings:10:10 @And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a great store of spices and jewels: never again was such a wealth of spices seen as that which the queen of Sheba gave King Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:10:11 @And the sea-force of Hiram, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with much sandal-wood and jewels.

bbe@1Kings:10:13 @And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what he gave her freely from the impulse of his heart. So she went back to her country, she and her servants.

bbe@1Kings:10:14 @Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;

bbe@1Kings:10:19 @There were six steps going up to it, and the top of it was round at the back, there were arms on the two sides of the seat, and two lions by the side of the arms;

bbe@1Kings:10:20 @And twelve lions were placed on the one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.

bbe@1Kings:10:21 @And all King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold; not one was of silver, for no one gave a thought to silver in the days of King Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:10:23 @And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.

bbe@1Kings:10:26 @And Solomon got together war-carriages and horsemen; he had one thousand, four hundred carriages and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king at Jerusalem.

bbe@1Kings:11:1 @Now a number of strange women were loved by Solomon, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites:

bbe@1Kings:11:5 @For Solomon went after Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Zidonians, and Milcom, the disgusting god of the Ammonites.

bbe@1Kings:11:16 @(For Joab and all Israel were there six months till every male in Edom had been cut off;)

bbe@1Kings:11:17 @Hadad, being still a young boy, went in flight to Egypt, with certain Edomites, servants of his father;

bbe@1Kings:11:18 @And they went on from Midian and came to Paran; and, taking men from Paran with them, they came to Egypt, to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, who gave him a house and gave orders for his food and gave him land.

bbe@1Kings:11:24 @He got some men together and made himself captain of a band of outlaws; and went to Damascus and became king there.

bbe@1Kings:11:29 @Now at that time, when Jeroboam was going out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite came across him on the road; now Ahijah had put on a new robe; and the two of them were by themselves in the open country.

bbe@1Kings:11:30 @And Ahijah took his new robe in his hands, parting it violently into twelve.

bbe@1Kings:11:40 @And Solomon was looking for a chance to put Jeroboam to death; but he went in flight to Egypt, to Shishak, king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon.

bbe@1Kings:11:43 @And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Solomon went to rest with his fathers and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:12:1 @And Rehoboam went to Shechem, where all Israel had come together to make him king,

bbe@1Kings:12:4 @Your father put a hard yoke on us: if you will make the conditions under which your father kept us down less cruel, and the weight of the yoke he put on us less hard, then we will be your servants.

bbe@1Kings:12:5 @And he said to them, Go away for three days and then come back to me again. So the people went away.

bbe@1Kings:12:6 @Then King Rehoboam took the opinion of the old men who had been with Solomon his father when he was living, and said, In your opinion, what answer am I to give to this people?

bbe@1Kings:12:7 @And they said to him, If you will be a servant to this people today, caring for them and giving them a gentle answer, then they will be your servants for ever.

bbe@1Kings:12:8 @But he gave no attention to the opinion of the old men, and went to the young men of his generation who were waiting before him:

bbe@1Kings:12:9 @And said to them, What is your opinion? What answer are we to give to this people who have said to me, Make less the weight of the yoke which your father put on us?

bbe@1Kings:12:10 @And the young men of his generation said to him, This is the answer to give to the people who came to you saying, Your father put a hard yoke on us; will you make it less? say to them, My little finger is thicker than my father's body;

bbe@1Kings:12:13 @And the king gave them a rough answer, giving no attention to the suggestion of the old men;

bbe@1Kings:12:14 @But giving them the answer put forward by the young men, saying, My father made your yoke hard, but I will make it harder; my father gave you punishment with whips, but I will give it with snakes.

bbe@1Kings:12:16 @And when all Israel saw that the king would give no attention to them, the people in answer said to the king, What part have we in David? what is our heritage in the son of Jesse? to your tents, O Israel; now see to your people, David. So Israel went away to their tents.

bbe@1Kings:12:17 @(But Rehoboam was still king over those of the children of Israel who were living in the towns of Judah.)

bbe@1Kings:12:18 @Then King Rehoboam sent Adoniram, the overseer of the forced work; and he was stoned to death by all Israel. And King Rehoboam went quickly and got into his carriage to go in flight to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Kings:12:24 @The Lord has said, You are not to go to war against your brothers, the children of Israel; go back, every man to his house, because this thing is my purpose. So they gave ear to the word of the Lord, and went back, as the Lord had said.

bbe@1Kings:12:25 @Then Jeroboam made the town of Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim a strong place, and was living there; and from there he went out and did the same to Penuel.

bbe@1Kings:12:30 @And this became a sin in Israel; for the people went to give worship to the one at Beth-el, and to the other at Dan.

bbe@1Kings:12:31 @And he made places for worship at the high places, and made priests, who were not Levites, from among all the people.

bbe@1Kings:12:32 @And Jeroboam gave orders for a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like the feast which is kept in Judah, and he went up to the altar. And in the same way, in Beth-el, he gave offerings to the oxen which he had made, placing in Beth-el the priests of the high places he had made.

bbe@1Kings:12:33 @He went up to the altar he had made in Beth-el on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, the month fixed by him at his pleasure; and he gave orders for a feast for the people of Israel, and went up to the altar, and there he made the smoke of his offerings go up.

bbe@1Kings:13:4 @Then the king, hearing the man of God crying out against the altar at Beth-el, put out his hand from the altar, saying, Take him prisoner. And his hand, stretched out against him, became dead, and he had no power of pulling it back.

bbe@1Kings:13:6 @Then the king made answer and said to the man of God, Make a prayer now for the grace of the Lord your God, and for me, that my hand may be made well. And in answer to the prayer of the man of God, the king's hand was made well again, as it was before.

bbe@1Kings:13:10 @So he went another way, and not by the way he came to Beth-el.

bbe@1Kings:13:14 @And went after the man of God, and came up with him while he was seated under an oak-tree. And he said to him, Are you the man of God who came from Judah? And he said, I am.

bbe@1Kings:13:19 @So he went back with him, and had a meal in his house and a drink of water.

bbe@1Kings:13:20 @But while they were seated at the table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had taken him back;

bbe@1Kings:13:21 @And crying out to the man of God who came from Judah, he said, The Lord says, Because you have gone against the voice of the Lord, and have not done as you were ordered by the Lord,

bbe@1Kings:13:22 @But have come back, and have taken food and water in this place where he said you were to take no food or water; your dead body will not be put to rest with your fathers.

bbe@1Kings:13:24 @And he went on his way; but on the road a lion came rushing at him and put him to death; and his dead body was stretched in the road with the ass by its side, and the lion was there by the body.

bbe@1Kings:13:26 @Then the prophet who had made him come back, hearing it, said, It is the man of God, who went against the word of the Lord; that is why the Lord has given him to the lion to be wounded to death, as the Lord said.

bbe@1Kings:13:28 @And he went and saw the dead body stretched out in the road with the ass and the lion by its side: the lion had not taken the body for its food or done any damage to the ass.

bbe@1Kings:13:29 @Then the prophet took up the body of the man of God and put it on the ass and took it back; and he came to the town to put the body to rest with weeping.

bbe@1Kings:13:30 @And he put the body in the resting-place made ready for himself, weeping and sorrowing over it, saying, O my brother!

bbe@1Kings:14:4 @So Jeroboam's wife did so, and got up and went to Shiloh and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah was unable to see, because he was very old.

bbe@1Kings:14:5 @And the Lord had said to Ahijah, The wife of Jeroboam is coming to get news from you about her son, who is ill; give her such and such an answer; for she will make herself seem to be another woman.

bbe@1Kings:14:13 @And all Israel will put his body to rest, weeping over him, because he only of the family of Jeroboam will be put into his resting-place in the earth; for of all the family of Jeroboam, in him only has the Lord, the God of Israel, seen some good.

bbe@1Kings:14:17 @Then Jeroboam's wife got up and went away and came to Tirzah; and when she came to the doorway of the house, death came to the child

bbe@1Kings:14:18 @And all Israel put his body to rest, weeping over him, as the Lord had said by his servant Ahijah the prophet.

bbe@1Kings:14:20 @And Jeroboam was king for twenty-two years, and was put to rest with his fathers, and Nadab his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:14:24 @And more than this, there were those in the land who were used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods, doing the same disgusting crimes as the nations which the Lord had sent out before the children of Israel.

bbe@1Kings:14:26 @And took away all the stored wealth from the house of the Lord, and from the king's house, and all the gold body-covers which Solomon had made.

bbe@1Kings:14:27 @So in their place King Rehoboam had other body-covers made of brass, and gave them into the care of the captains of the armed men who were stationed at the door of the king's house.

bbe@1Kings:14:28 @And whenever the king went into the house of the Lord, the armed men went with him taking the body-covers, and then took them back to their room.

bbe@1Kings:14:30 @And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

bbe@1Kings:14:31 @And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman. And Abijam his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:15:5 @Because David did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, and never in all his life went against his orders, but only in the question of Uriah the Hittite.

bbe@1Kings:15:7 @Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

bbe@1Kings:15:8 @Then Abijam went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David: and Asa his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:15:9 @In the twentieth year that Jeroboam was king of Israel, Asa became king over Judah.

bbe@1Kings:15:14 @The high places, however, were not taken away: but still the heart of Asa was true to the Lord all his life.

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

bbe@1Kings:15:17 @And Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah, so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah.

bbe@1Kings:15:19 @Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you an offering of silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me

bbe@1Kings:15:23 @Now the rest of the acts of Asa, and his power, and all he did, and the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? But when he was old he had a disease of the feet.

bbe@1Kings:15:24 @So Asa went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:15:27 @And Baasha, the son of Ahijah, of the family of Issachar, made a secret design against him, attacking him at Gibbethon, a town of the Philistines; for Nadab and the armies of Israel were making war on Gibbethon.

bbe@1Kings:15:32 @And there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days.

bbe@1Kings:15:33 @In the third year of the rule of Asa, king of Judah, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, became king over all Israel in Tirzah, and was king for twenty-four years.

bbe@1Kings:16:5 @Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his power, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?

bbe@1Kings:16:6 @And Baasha went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth at Tirzah; and Elah his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:16:8 @In the twenty-sixth year that Asa was king of Judah, Elah, the son of Baasha, became king of Israel in Tirzah, and he was king for two years.

bbe@1Kings:16:10 @And Zimri went in and made an attack on him and put him to death, in the twenty-seventh year that Asa was king of Judah, and made himself king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:16:15 @In the twenty-seventh year of Asa, king of Judah, Zimri was king for seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were attacking Gibbethon in the land of the Philistines.

bbe@1Kings:16:17 @Then Omri went up from Gibbethon, with all the army of Israel, and they made an attack on Tirzah, shutting in the town on every side.

bbe@1Kings:16:18 @And when Zimri saw that the town was taken, he went into the inner room of the king's house, and burning the house over his head, came to his end,

bbe@1Kings:16:21 @Then there was a division among the people of Israel; half the people were for making Tibni, son of Ginath, king, and half were supporting Omri

bbe@1Kings:16:22 @But the supporters of Omri overcame those who were on the side of Tibni, the son of Ginath; and death came to Tibni and to his brother Joram at that time: and Omri became king in the place of Tibni.

bbe@1Kings:16:23 @In the thirty-first year of Asa, king of Judah, Omri became king over Israel, and he was king for twelve years; for six years he was ruling in Tirzah.

bbe@1Kings:16:27 @Now the rest of the acts which Omri did, and his great power, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?

bbe@1Kings:16:28 @So Omri went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria; and Ahab his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Kings:16:29 @In the thirty-eighth year that Asa was king of Judah, Ahab, the son of Omri, became king over Israel; and Ahab was king in Samaria for twenty-two years.

bbe@1Kings:16:30 @And Ahab, the son of Omri, did evil in the eyes of the Lord, even worse than all who went before him.

bbe@1Kings:17:5 @So he went and did as the Lord said, living by the stream Cherith, east of Jordan.

bbe@1Kings:17:10 @So he got up and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the door of the town, he saw a widow woman getting sticks together; and crying out to her he said, Will you give me a little water in a vessel for my drink?

bbe@1Kings:17:12 @Then she said, By the life of the Lord your God, I have nothing but a little meal in my store, and a drop of oil in the bottle; and now I am getting two sticks together so that I may go in and make it ready for me and my son, so that we may have a meal before our death.

bbe@1Kings:17:15 @So she went and did as Elijah said; and she and he and her family had food for a long time.

bbe@1Kings:18:2 @So Elijah went to let Ahab see him. Now there was no food to be had in Samaria.

bbe@1Kings:18:5 @And Ahab said to Obadiah, Come, let us go through all the country, to all the fountains of water and all the rivers, and see if there is any grass to be had for the horses and the transport beasts, so that we may be able to keep some of the beasts from destruction.

bbe@1Kings:18:6 @So they went through all the country, covering it between them; Ahab went in one direction by himself, and Obadiah went in another by himself.

bbe@1Kings:18:7 @And while Obadiah was on his way, he came face to face with Elijah; and seeing who it was, he went down on his face and said, Is it you, my lord Elijah?

bbe@1Kings:18:8 @And Elijah in answer said, It is I; now go and say to your lord, Elijah is here.

bbe@1Kings:18:16 @So Obadiah went to Ahab and gave him the news; and Ahab went to see Elijah.

bbe@1Kings:18:18 @Then he said in answer, I have not been troubling Israel, but you and your family; because, turning away from the orders of the Lord, you have gone after the Baals.

bbe@1Kings:18:21 @And Elijah came near to all the people and said, How long will you go on balancing between two opinions? if the Lord is God, then give worship to him; but if Baal, give worship to him. And the people said not a word in answer.

bbe@1Kings:18:24 @And do you make prayers to your god, and I will make a prayer to the Lord: and it will be clear that the one who gives an answer by fire is God. And all the people in answer said, It is well said.

bbe@1Kings:18:26 @So they took the ox which was given them, and made it ready, crying out to Baal from morning till the middle of the day, and saying, O Baal, give ear to us. But there was no voice and no answer. And they were jumping up and down before the altar they had made.

bbe@1Kings:18:29 @And from the middle of the day they went on with their prayers till the time of the offering; but there was no voice, or any answer, or any who gave attention to them.

bbe@1Kings:18:31 @And Elijah took twelve stones, the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the Lord had said, Israel will be your name:

bbe@1Kings:18:35 @And the water went all round the altar, till the drain was full.

bbe@1Kings:18:37 @Give me an answer, O Lord, give me an answer, so that this people may see that you are God, and that you have made their hearts come back again.

bbe@1Kings:18:39 @And when the people saw it, they all went down on their faces, and said, The Lord, he is God, the Lord, he is God.

bbe@1Kings:18:42 @So Ahab went up to have food and drink, while Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he went down on the earth, putting his face between his knees.

bbe@1Kings:18:43 @And he said to his servant, Go now, and take a look in the direction of the sea. And he went up, and after looking said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times; and he went seven times.

bbe@1Kings:18:45 @And after a very little time, the heaven became black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab went in his carriage to Jezreel.

bbe@1Kings:18:46 @And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah; and he made himself strong, and went running before Ahab till they came to Jezreel.

bbe@1Kings:19:3 @And he got up, fearing for his life, and went in flight, and came to Beer-sheba in Judah, parting there from his servant;

bbe@1Kings:19:4 @While he himself went a day's journey into the waste land, and took a seat under a broom-plant, desiring for himself only death; for he said, It is enough: now, O Lord, take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers.

bbe@1Kings:19:5 @And stretching himself on the earth, he went to sleep under the broom-plant; but an angel, touching him, said to him, Get up and have some food.

bbe@1Kings:19:6 @And looking up, he saw by his head a cake cooked on the stones and a bottle of water. So he took food and drink and went to sleep again.

bbe@1Kings:19:8 @So he got up and took food and drink, and in the strength of that food he went on for forty days and nights, to Horeb, the mountain of God.

bbe@1Kings:19:9 @And there he went into a hole in the rock for the night; then the word of the Lord came to him, saying, What are you doing here, Elijah?

bbe@1Kings:19:11 @Then he said, Go out and take your place on the mountain before the Lord. Then the Lord went by, and mountains were parted by the force of a great wind, and rocks were broken before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind. And after the wind there was an earth-shock, but the Lord was not in the earth-shock.

bbe@1Kings:19:13 @And Elijah, hearing it, went out, covering his face with his robe, and took his place in the opening of the hole. And there a voice came to him saying, What are you doing here, Elijah?

bbe@1Kings:19:19 @So he went away from there and came across Elisha, the son of Shaphat, ploughing with twelve yoke of oxen, he himself walking with the twelfth; and Elijah went up to him and put his robe on him.

bbe@1Kings:19:20 @And letting the oxen be where they were, he came running after Elijah, and said, Only let me give a kiss to my father and mother, and then I will come after you. But he said to him, Go back again; for what have I done to you?

bbe@1Kings:19:21 @And he went back, and took the oxen and put them to death, and cooking their flesh with the yokes of the oxen, he gave the people a feast. Then he got up and went after Elijah and became his servant.

bbe@1Kings:20:1 @Now Ben-hadad, king of Aram, got all his army together, and thirty-two kings with him, and horses and carriages of war; he went up and made war on Samaria, shutting it in.

bbe@1Kings:20:4 @And the king of Israel sent him an answer saying, As you say, my lord king, I am yours with all I have.

bbe@1Kings:20:9 @So he said to the representatives of Ben-hadad, Say to my lord the king, All the orders you sent the first time I will do; but this thing I may not do. And the representatives went back with this answer.

bbe@1Kings:20:11 @And the king of Israel said in answer, Say to him, The time for loud talk is not when a man is putting on his arms, but when he is taking them off.

bbe@1Kings:20:12 @Now when this answer was given to Ben-hadad, he was drinking with the kings in the tents, and he said to his men, Take up your positions

bbe@1Kings:20:14 @And Ahab said, By whom? And he said, The Lord says, By the servants of the chiefs who are over the divisions of the land. Then he said, By whom is the fighting to be started? And he made answer, By you.

bbe@1Kings:20:15 @Then he got together the servants of all the chiefs who were over the divisions of the land, two hundred and thirty-two of them; and after them, he got together all the people, all the children of Israel, seven thousand.

bbe@1Kings:20:16 @And in the middle of the day they went out. But Ben-hadad was drinking in the tents with the thirty-two kings who were helping him.

bbe@1Kings:20:17 @And the servants of the chiefs who were over the divisions of the land went forward first; and when Ben-hadad sent out, they gave him the news, saying, Men have come out from Samaria.

bbe@1Kings:20:19 @So the servants of the chiefs of the divisions of the land went out of the town, with the army coming after them.

bbe@1Kings:20:20 @And every one of them put his man to death, and the Aramaeans went in flight with Israel after them; and Ben-hadad, king of Aram, got away safely on a horse with his horsemen.

bbe@1Kings:20:21 @And the king of Israel went out and took the horses and the war-carriages, and made great destruction among the Aramaeans.

bbe@1Kings:20:23 @Then the king of Aram's servants said to him, Their god is a god of the hills; that is why they were stronger than we: but if we make an attack on them in the lowlands, we will certainly be stronger than they.

bbe@1Kings:20:25 @And get together another army like the one which came to destruction, horse for horse, and carriage for carriage; and let us make war on them in the lowlands, and certainly we will be stronger than they. And he gave ear to what they said, and did so.

bbe@1Kings:20:26 @So, a year later, Ben-hadad got the Aramaeans together and went up to Aphek to make war on Israel.

bbe@1Kings:20:27 @And the children of Israel got themselves together, and food was made ready and they went against them; the tents of the children of Israel were like two little flocks of goats before them, but all the country was full of the Aramaeans.

bbe@1Kings:20:30 @But the rest went in flight to Aphek, into the town, where a wall came down on the twenty-seven thousand who were still living. And Ben-hadad went in flight into the town, into an inner room.

bbe@1Kings:20:38 @So the prophet went away, and pulling his head-band over his eyes to keep his face covered, took his place by the road waiting for the king.

bbe@1Kings:20:39 @And when the king went by, crying out to him he said, Your servant went out into the fight; and a man came out to me with another man and said, Keep this man: if by any chance he gets away, your life will be the price of his life, or you will have to give a talent of silver in payment.

bbe@1Kings:20:43 @Then the king of Israel went back to his house, bitter and angry, and came to Samaria.

bbe@1Kings:21:2 @And Ahab said to Naboth, Give me your vine-garden so that I may have it for a garden of sweet plants, for it is near my house; and let me give you a better vine-garden in exchange, or, if it seems good to you, let me give you its value in money.

bbe@1Kings:21:8 @So she sent a letter in Ahab's name, stamped with his stamp, to the responsible men and the chiefs who were in authority with Naboth.

bbe@1Kings:21:11 @So the responsible men and the chiefs who were in authority in his town, did as Jezebel had said in the letter she sent them.

bbe@1Kings:21:16 @So Ahab, hearing that Naboth was dead, went down to the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite to take it as his heritage.

bbe@1Kings:21:27 @Hearing these words, Ahab, in great grief, put haircloth on his flesh and went without food, sleeping in haircloth, and going about quietly.

bbe@1Kings:22:1 @Now for three years there was no war between Aram and Israel.

bbe@1Kings:22:3 @And the king of Israel said to his servants, Do you not see that Ramoth-gilead is ours? and we are doing nothing to get it back from the hands of the king of Aram.

bbe@1Kings:22:7 @But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no other prophet of the Lord here from whom we may get directions?

bbe@1Kings:22:8 @And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, Micaiah, son of Imlah; but I have no love for him, for he is a prophet of evil to me and not of good. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

bbe@1Kings:22:10 @Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, were seated on their seats of authority, dressed in their robes, by the doorway into Samaria; and all the prophets were acting as prophets before them.

bbe@1Kings:22:12 @And all the prophets said the same thing, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and it will go well for you, for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.

bbe@1Kings:22:15 @When he came to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, are we to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And in answer he said, Go up, and it will go well for you; and the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.

bbe@1Kings:22:19 @And he said, Give ear now to the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord seated on his seat of power, with all the army of heaven in their places round him at his right hand and at his left.

bbe@1Kings:22:29 @So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went up to Ramoth-gilead.

bbe@1Kings:22:30 @And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will make a change in my clothing, so that I do not seem to be the king, and will go into the fight; but do you put on your robes. So the king of Israel made a change in his dress and went into the fight.

bbe@1Kings:22:33 @And when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him.

bbe@1Kings:22:35 @But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans, and the floor of the carriage was covered with the blood from his wound, and by evening he was dead.

bbe@1Kings:22:36 @And about sundown a cry went up from all parts of the army, saying, Let every man go back to his town and his country, for the king is dead.

bbe@1Kings:22:38 @And the war-carriage was washed by the pool of Samaria, which was the bathing-place of the loose women, and the dogs were drinking his blood there, as the Lord had said.

bbe@1Kings:22:42 @Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was king for twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.

bbe@1Kings:22:44 @but the high places were not taken away: the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.

bbe@1Kings:22:46 @Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his great power, and how he went to war, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?

bbe@1Kings:22:47 @He put an end to the rest of those who were used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods, all those who were still in the land in the time of his father Asa.

bbe@1Kings:22:51 @Then Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Jehoram his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:1:2 @Now Ahaziah had a fall from the window of his room in Samaria, and was ill. And he sent men, and said to them, Put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, about the outcome of my disease, to see if I will get well or not.

bbe@2Kings:1:4 @Give ear then to the words of the Lord: You will never again get down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you. Then Elijah went away.

bbe@2Kings:1:6 @And they said to him, On our way we had a meeting with a man who said, Go back to the king who sent you and say to him, The Lord says, Is it because there is no God in Israel that you send to put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? For this reason, you will not come down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you.

bbe@2Kings:1:8 @And they said in answer, He was a man clothed in a coat of hair, with a leather band about his body. Then he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.

bbe@2Kings:1:9 @Then the king sent to him a captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he went up to him where he was seated on the top of a hill, and said to him, O man of God, the king has said, Come down.

bbe@2Kings:1:10 @And Elijah in answer said to the captain of fifty, If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven on you and on your fifty men, and put an end to you. Then fire came down from heaven and put an end to him and his fifty men.

bbe@2Kings:1:12 @And Elijah in answer said, If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven on you and on your fifty men, and put an end to you. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and put an end to him and his fifty men.

bbe@2Kings:1:13 @Then he sent a third captain of fifty with his fifty men; and the third captain of fifty went up, and falling on his knees before Elijah, requesting mercy of him, said, O man of God, let my life and the life of these your fifty servants be of value to you.

bbe@2Kings:1:15 @Then the angel of the Lord said to Elijah, Go down with him; have no fear of him. So he got up and went down with him to the king.

bbe@2Kings:2:1 @Now when the Lord was about to take Elijah up to heaven in a great wind, Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.

bbe@2Kings:2:2 @And Elijah said to Elisha, Come no farther for the Lord has sent me to Beth-el. But Elisha said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went down to Beth-el.

bbe@2Kings:2:4 @Then Elijah said to him, Come no farther, for the Lord has sent me to Jericho. But he said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went on to Jericho.

bbe@2Kings:2:5 @And at Jericho the sons of the prophets came up to Elisha and said to him, Has it been made clear to you that the Lord is going to take away your master from over you today? And he said in answer, Yes, I have knowledge of it: say no more.

bbe@2Kings:2:6 @Then Elijah said to him, Come no farther, for the Lord has sent me to Jordan. But he said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went on together.

bbe@2Kings:2:7 @And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went out and took their places facing them a long way off, while the two of them were by the edge of Jordan.

bbe@2Kings:2:8 @Then Elijah took off his robe, and, rolling it up, gave the water a blow with it, and the waters were parted, flowing back this way and that, so that they went over on dry land.

bbe@2Kings:2:11 @And while they went on their way, going on talking together, suddenly there were carriages and horses of fire separating them from one another and Elijah went up to heaven in a great wind.

bbe@2Kings:2:13 @Then he took up Elijah's robe, which had been dropped from him, and went back till he came to the edge of Jordan.

bbe@2Kings:2:14 @And he took Elijah's robe, which had been dropped from him, and giving the water a blow with it, said, Where is the Lord, the God of Elijah? and at his blow the waters were parted this way and that; and Elisha went over.

bbe@2Kings:2:15 @And when the sons of the prophets who were facing him at Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah is resting on Elisha. And they came out to him, and went down on the earth before him.

bbe@2Kings:2:21 @Then he went out to the spring from which the water came, and put salt in it, and said, The Lord says, Now I have made this water sweet; no longer will it be death-giving or unfertile.

bbe@2Kings:2:22 @And the water was made sweet again to this day, as Elisha said.

bbe@2Kings:2:23 @Then from there he went up to Beth-el; and on his way, some little boys came out from the town and made sport of him, crying, Go up, old no-hair! go up, old no-hair!

bbe@2Kings:2:25 @From there he went to Mount Carmel, and came back from there to Samaria.

bbe@2Kings:3:1 @And Jehoram, the son of Ahab, became king over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of the rule of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah; and he was king for twelve years.

bbe@2Kings:3:3 @But still he did the same sins which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, did and made Israel do; he went on in them.

bbe@2Kings:3:6 @At that time, King Jehoram went out from Samaria and got all Israel together in fighting order.

bbe@2Kings:3:8 @And he said, Which way are we to go? And he said in answer, By the waste land of Edom.

bbe@2Kings:3:9 @So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom by a roundabout way for seven days: and there was no water for the army or for the beasts they had with them.

bbe@2Kings:3:11 @But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no prophet of the Lord here, through whom we may get directions from the Lord? And one of the king of Israel's men said in answer, Elisha, the son of Shaphat, is here, who was servant to Elijah.

bbe@2Kings:3:12 @And Jehoshaphat said, The word of the Lord is with him. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.

bbe@2Kings:3:21 @Now all Moab, hearing that the kings had come to make war against them, got together all who were able to take up arms and went forward to the edge of the country.

bbe@2Kings:3:24 @But when they came to the tents of Israel, the Israelites came out and made a violent attack on the Moabites, so that they went in flight before them; and they went forward still attacking them;

bbe@2Kings:3:25 @Pulling down the towns, covering every good field with stones, stopping up all the water-springs, and cutting down all the good trees; they went on driving Moab before them till only in Kir-hareseth were there any Moabites; and the fighting-men went round the town raining stones on it.

bbe@2Kings:3:26 @And when the king of Moab saw that the fight was going against him, he took with him seven hundred men armed with swords, with the idea of forcing a way through to the king of Aram, but they were not able to do so.

bbe@2Kings:3:27 @Then he took his oldest son, who would have been king after him, offering him as a burned offering on the wall. So there was great wrath against Israel; and they went away from him, back to their country.

bbe@2Kings:4:5 @So she went away, and when the door was shut on her and her sons, they took the vessels to her and she put oil into them.

bbe@2Kings:4:6 @And when all the vessels were full, she said to her son, Get me another vessel. And he said, There are no more. And the flow of oil was stopped.

bbe@2Kings:4:8 @Now there came a day when Elisha went to Shunem, and there was a woman of high position living there, who made him come in and have a meal with her. And after that, every time he went by, he went into her house for a meal.

bbe@2Kings:4:11 @Now one day, when he had gone there, he went into the little room and took his rest there.

bbe@2Kings:4:12 @And he said to Gehazi, his servant, Send for this Shunammite. So in answer to his voice she came before him.

bbe@2Kings:4:14 @So he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi made answer, Still there is this, she has no son and her husband is old.

bbe@2Kings:4:15 @Then he said, Send for her. And in answer to his voice she took her place at the door.

bbe@2Kings:4:18 @Now one day, when the child was older, he went out to his father to where the grain was being cut.

bbe@2Kings:4:20 @And he took him in to his mother, and she took him on her knees and kept him there till the middle of the day, when his life went from him.

bbe@2Kings:4:21 @Then she went up and put him on the bed of the man of God, shutting the door on him, and went out.

bbe@2Kings:4:23 @And he said, Why are you going to him today? it is not a new moon or a Sabbath. But she said, It is well.

bbe@2Kings:4:25 @So she went, and came to Mount Carmel, to the man of God. And when the man of God saw her coming in his direction, he said to Gehazi, his servant, See, there is the Shunammite;

bbe@2Kings:4:26 @Go quickly to her, and on meeting her say to her, Are you well? and your husband and the child, are they well? And she said in answer, All is well.

bbe@2Kings:4:29 @Then he said to Gehazi, Make yourself ready, and take my stick in your hand, and go: if you come across anyone on the way, give him no blessing, and if anyone gives you a blessing, give him no answer. And put my stick on the child's face.

bbe@2Kings:4:30 @But the mother of the child said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not go back without you. So he got up and went with her.

bbe@2Kings:4:31 @And Gehazi went on before them and put the stick on the child's face; but there was no voice, and no one gave attention. So he went back, and meeting him gave him the news, saying, The child is not awake.

bbe@2Kings:4:33 @So he went in, and shutting the door on the two of them, made prayer to the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:4:35 @Then he came back, and after walking once through the house and back, he went up, stretching himself out on the child seven times; and the child's eyes became open.

bbe@2Kings:4:36 @And he gave orders to Gehazi, and said, Send for the Shunammite. And she came in answer to his voice. And he said, Take up your son.

bbe@2Kings:4:37 @And she came in, and went down on her face to the earth at his feet; then she took her son in her arms and went out.

bbe@2Kings:4:38 @And Elisha went back to Gilgal, now there was very little food in the land; and the sons of the prophets were seated before him. And he said to his servant, Put the great pot on the fire, and make soup for the sons of the prophets.

bbe@2Kings:4:39 @And one went out into the field to get green plants and saw a vine of the field, and pulling off the fruit of it till the fold of his robe was full, he came back and put the fruit, cut up small, into the pot of soup, having no idea what it was.

bbe@2Kings:4:40 @Then they gave the men soup from the pot. And while they were drinking the soup, they gave a cry, and said, O man of God, there is death in the pot; and they were not able to take any more food.

bbe@2Kings:4:42 @Now a man came from Baal-shalishah with an offering of first-fruits for the man of God, twenty barley cakes and garden fruit in his bag. And he said, Give these to the people for food.

bbe@2Kings:5:3 @And she said to her master's wife, If only my lord would go to the prophet in Samaria, he would make him well.

bbe@2Kings:5:4 @And someone went and said to his lord, This is what the girl from the land of Israel says.

bbe@2Kings:5:5 @So the king of Aram said, Go then; and I will send a letter to the king of Israel. And he went, taking with him ten talents of silver and six thousand shekels of gold, and ten changes of clothing.

bbe@2Kings:5:6 @And he took the letter to the king of Israel, in which the king of Aram had said, See, I have sent my servant Naaman to you to be made well, for he is a leper.

bbe@2Kings:5:7 @But the king of Israel, after reading the letter, was greatly troubled and said, Am I God, to give death and life? why does this man send a leper to me to be made well? is it not clear that he is looking for a cause of war?

bbe@2Kings:5:10 @And Elisha sent a servant to him, saying, Go to Jordan, and after washing seven times in its waters your flesh will be well again and you will be clean.

bbe@2Kings:5:11 @But Naaman was angry and went away and said, I had the idea that he would come out to see such an important person as I am, and make prayer to the Lord his God, and with a wave of his hand over the place make the leper well.

bbe@2Kings:5:12 @Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not be washed in them and become clean? So turning, he went away in wrath

bbe@2Kings:5:14 @Then he went down seven times into the waters of Jordan, as the man of God had said; and his flesh became like the flesh of a little child again, and he was clean.

bbe@2Kings:5:15 @Then he went back to the man of God, with all his train, and, taking his place before him, said, Now I am certain that there is no God in all the earth, but only in Israel: now then, take an offering from me.

bbe@2Kings:5:19 @And he said to him, Go in peace. And he went from him some distance.

bbe@2Kings:5:21 @So Gehazi went after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he got down from his carriage and went back to him and said, Is all well?

bbe@2Kings:5:22 @And he said, All is well: but my master has sent me, saying, Even now, two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the hill-country of Ephraim; will you give me a talent of silver and two changes of clothing for them?

bbe@2Kings:5:24 @When he came to the hill, he took them from their hands, and put them away in the house; and he sent the men away, and they went.

bbe@2Kings:5:25 @Then he came in and took his place before his master. And Elisha said to him, Where have you come from, Gehazi? And he said, Your servant went nowhere.

bbe@2Kings:5:26 @And he said to him, Did not my heart go with you, when the man got down from his carriage and went back to you? Is this a time for getting money, and clothing, and olive-gardens and vine-gardens, and sheep and oxen, and men-servants and women-servants?

bbe@2Kings:5:27 @Because of what you have done, the disease of Naaman the leper will take you in its grip, and your seed after you, for ever. And he went out from before him a leper as white as snow.

bbe@2Kings:6:1 @Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, There is not room enough for us in the place where we are living under your care;

bbe@2Kings:6:2 @So let us go to Jordan, and let everyone get to work cutting boards, and we will make a living-place for ourselves there. And he said to them, Go, then.

bbe@2Kings:6:4 @So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they got to work cutting down trees.

bbe@2Kings:6:15 @Now the servant of the man of God, having got up early and gone out, saw an army with horses and carriages of war all round the town. And the servant said to him, O my master, what are we to do?

bbe@2Kings:6:16 @And he said in answer, Have no fear; those who are with us are more than those who are with them.

bbe@2Kings:6:20 @And when they had come into Samaria, Elisha said, Lord, let the eyes of these men be open so that they may see. And the Lord made their eyes open, and they saw that they were in the middle of Samaria.

bbe@2Kings:6:22 @But he said in answer, You are not to put them to death; have you any right to put to death those whom you have not taken prisoner with your sword and your bow? put bread and water before them, so that they may have food and drink and go to their master.

bbe@2Kings:6:23 @So he made ready a great feast for them, and when they had had food and drink, he sent them away and they went back to their master. And no more bands of Aramaeans came into the land of Israel.

bbe@2Kings:6:24 @Now after this, Ben-hadad, king of Aram, got together all his army and went up to make an attack on Samaria, shutting the town in on all sides with his forces.

bbe@2Kings:6:28 @And the king said to her, What is troubling you? And she said in answer, This woman said to me, Give your son to be our food today, and we will have my son tomorrow.

bbe@2Kings:6:29 @So, boiling my son, we had a meal of him; and on the day after I said to her, Now give your son for our food; but she has put her son in a secret place.

bbe@2Kings:6:32 @But Elisha was in his house, and the responsible men were seated there with him; and before the king got there, Elisha said to those who were with him, Do you see how this cruel and violent man has sent to take away my life?

bbe@2Kings:7:3 @Now there were four lepers seated at the doorway into the town: and they said to one another, Why are we waiting here for death?

bbe@2Kings:7:4 @If we say, We will go into the town, there is no food in the town, and we will come to our end there; and if we go on waiting here, death will come to us. Come then, let us give ourselves up to the army of Aram: if they let us go on living, then life will be ours; and if they put us to death, then death will be ours.

bbe@2Kings:7:7 @So they got up and went in flight, in the half light, without their tents or their horses or their asses or any of their goods; they went in flight, fearing for their lives.

bbe@2Kings:7:8 @And when those lepers came to the outer line of tents, they went into one tent, and had food and drink, and took from it silver and gold and clothing, which they put in a secret place; then they came back and went into another tent from which they took more goods, which they put away in a secret place.

bbe@2Kings:7:9 @Then they said to one another, We are not doing right. Today is a day of good news, and we say nothing: if we go on waiting here till the morning, punishment will come to us. So let us go and give the news to those of the king's house.

bbe@2Kings:7:10 @So they came in, and, crying out to the door-keepers of the town, they gave them the news, saying, We came to the tents of the Aramaeans, and there was no one there and no voice of man, only the horses and the asses in their places, and the tents as they were.

bbe@2Kings:7:12 @Then the king got up in the night and said to his servants, This is my idea of what the Aramaeans have done to us. They have knowledge that we are without food; and so they have gone out of their tents, and are waiting secretly in the open country, saying, When they come out of the town, we will take them living and get into the town.

bbe@2Kings:7:13 @And one of his servants said in answer, Send men and let them take five of the horses which we still have in the town; if they keep their lives they will be the same as those of Israel who are still living here; if they come to their death they will be the same as all those of Israel who have gone to destruction: let us send and see.

bbe@2Kings:7:15 @And they went after them as far as Jordan; and all the road was covered with clothing and vessels dropped by the Aramaeans in their flight. So those who were sent went back and gave the news to the king.

bbe@2Kings:7:16 @Then the people went out and took the goods from the tents of the Aramaeans

bbe@2Kings:7:17 @And the king gave authority to that captain, on whose arm he was supported, to have control over the doorway into the town; but he was crushed to death there under the feet of the people, as the man of God had said when the king went down to him.

bbe@2Kings:8:2 @So the woman got up and did as the man of God said; and she and the people of her house were living in the land of the Philistines for seven years.

bbe@2Kings:8:3 @And when the seven years were ended, the woman came back from the land of the Philistines and went to the king with a request for her house and her land.

bbe@2Kings:8:6 @And in answer to the king's questions, the woman gave him all the story. So the king gave orders to one of his unsexed servants, saying, Give her back all her property, and all the produce of her fields from the day when she went away from the land up till now.

bbe@2Kings:8:9 @So Hazael went to see him, taking with him forty camels with offerings on their backs of every sort of good thing from Damascus; and when he came before him, he said, Your son Ben-hadad, king of Aram, has sent me to you, saying, Will I get better from this disease?

bbe@2Kings:8:11 @And he kept his eyes fixed on him till he was shamed, and the man of God was overcome with weeping.

bbe@2Kings:8:12 @And Hazael said, Why is my lord weeping? Then he said in answer, Because I see the evil which you will do to the children of Israel: burning down their strong towns, putting their young men to death with the sword, smashing their little ones against the stones, and cutting open the women who are with child.

bbe@2Kings:8:14 @Then he went away from Elisha and came in to his master, who said to him, What did Elisha say to you? And his answer was, He said that you would certainly get well.

bbe@2Kings:8:15 @Now on the day after, Hazael took the bed-cover, and making it wet with water, put it over Ben-hadad's face, causing his death: and Hazael became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:8:18 @He went in the ways of the kings of Israel, as the family of Ahab did: for the daughter of Ahab was his wife; and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord

bbe@2Kings:8:21 @Then Joram went over to Zair, with all his war-carriages;... made an attack by night on the Edomites, whose forces were all round him,... the captains of the war-carriages; and the people went in flight to their tents.

bbe@2Kings:8:24 @And Joram went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David: and Ahaziah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:8:25 @In the twelfth year that Joram, the son of Ahab, was king of Israel, Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, became king;

bbe@2Kings:8:26 @Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri, king of Israel.

bbe@2Kings:8:27 @He went in the ways of the family of Ahab, and did evil in the eyes of the Lord as the family of Ahab did, for he was a son-in-law of the family of Ahab.

bbe@2Kings:8:28 @He went with Joram, the son of Ahab, to make war on Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead: and Joram was wounded by the Aramaeans.

bbe@2Kings:8:29 @So King Joram went back to Jezreel to get well from the wounds which the bowmen had given him at Ramah, when he was fighting against Hazael, king of Aram. And Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to see Joram, the son of Ahab, in Jezreel, because he was ill.

bbe@2Kings:9:4 @So the young prophet went to Ramoth-gilead.

bbe@2Kings:9:6 @And he got up and went into the house; then he put the holy oil on his head and said to him, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, I have made you king over the people of the Lord, over Israel.

bbe@2Kings:9:10 @And Jezebel will become food for the dogs in the heritage of Jezreel, and there will be no one to put her body into the earth. Then, opening the door, he went in flight.

bbe@2Kings:9:11 @Then Jehu came out again to the servants of his lord, and one said to him, Is all well? why did this man, who is off his head, come to you? And he said to them, You have knowledge of the man and of his talk.

bbe@2Kings:9:14 @So Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, made designs against Joram. (Now Joram and all the army of Israel were keeping watch on Ramoth-gilead because of Hazael, king of Aram:

bbe@2Kings:9:15 @But King Joram had gone back to Jezreel to get well from the wounds which the Aramaeans had given him when he was fighting against Hazael, king of Aram.) And Jehu said, If this is your purpose, then let no one get away and go out of the town to give news of it in Jezreel.

bbe@2Kings:9:16 @So Jehu got into his carriage and went to Jezreel, for Joram was ill in bed there; and Ahaziah, king of Judah, had come down to see Joram.

bbe@2Kings:9:17 @And the watchman on the tower in Jezreel saw Jehu and his band coming, and said, I see a band of people. And Joram said, Send out a horseman to them, and let him say, Is it peace?

bbe@2Kings:9:18 @So a horseman went out to them and said, The king says, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What have you to do with peace? come after me. And the watchman gave them word, saying, The horseman went up to them, but has not come back.

bbe@2Kings:9:19 @Then he sent out a second horseman, who came up to them and said, The king says, Is it peace? And Jehu said in answer, What have you to do with peace? come after me.

bbe@2Kings:9:20 @And the watchman gave them word, saying, He went up to them and has not come back again; and the driving is like the driving of Jehu, son of Nimshi, for he is driving violently

bbe@2Kings:9:21 @Then Joram said, Make ready. So they made his carriage ready; and Joram, king of Israel, with Ahaziah, king of Judah, went out in their carriages for the purpose of meeting Jehu; and they came face to face with him at the field of Naboth the Jezreelite.

bbe@2Kings:9:22 @Now when Joram saw Jehu he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he said in answer, What peace is possible while all the land is full of the disgusting sins of your mother Jezebel, and her secret arts?

bbe@2Kings:9:24 @Then Jehu took his bow in his hand, and with all his strength sent an arrow, wounding Joram between the arms; and the arrow came out at his heart, and he went down on his face in his carriage.

bbe@2Kings:9:25 @Then Jehu said to Bidkar, his captain, Take him up, and put him in the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for is not that day in your memory when you and I together on our horses were going after Ahab, his father, and the Lord put this fate on him, saying:

bbe@2Kings:9:27 @Now when Ahaziah, king of Judah, saw this, he went in flight by the way of the garden house. And Jehu came after him and said, Put him to death in the same way; and they gave him a death-wound in his carriage, on the slope up to Gur, by Ibleam; and he went in flight to Megiddo, where death came to him.

bbe@2Kings:9:31 @And when Jehu was coming into the town, she said, Is all well, O Zimri, taker of your master's life?

bbe@2Kings:9:33 @And he said, Take her and put her out of the window. So they sent her down with force, and her blood went in a shower on the wall and on the horses; and she was crushed under their feet.

bbe@2Kings:9:35 @And they went out to put her body into the earth, but nothing of her was to be seen, only the bones of her head, and her feet, and parts of her hands.

bbe@2Kings:10:1 @Now there were in Samaria seventy of Ahab's sons. And Jehu sent letters to Samaria, to the rulers of the town, and to the responsible men, and to those who had the care of the sons of Ahab, saying,

bbe@2Kings:10:4 @But they were full of fear, and said, The two kings have gone down before him: how may we keep our place?

bbe@2Kings:10:5 @So the controller of the king's house, with the ruler of the town, and the responsible men, and those who had the care of Ahab's sons, sent to Jehu, saying, We are your servants and will do all your orders; we will not make any man king; do whatever seems best to you.

bbe@2Kings:10:6 @Then he sent them a second letter, saying, If you are on my side, and if you will do my orders, come to me at Jezreel by this time tomorrow, with the heads of your master's sons. Now the king's seventy sons were with the great men of the town, who had the care of them.

bbe@2Kings:10:9 @And in the morning he went out and, stopping, said to all the people there, You are upright men: it is true that I made designs against my master, and put him to death; but who is responsible for the death of all these?

bbe@2Kings:10:11 @So Jehu put to death all the rest of the seed of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his relations and his near friends and his priests, till there were no more of them.

bbe@2Kings:10:13 @When he came across the brothers of Ahaziah, king of Judah, and said, Who are you? And they said, We are the brothers of Ahaziah, king of Judah; we are going down to see the children of the king and of the queen.

bbe@2Kings:10:15 @And when he had gone away from there, he came across Jehonadab, the son of Rechab: and he said good-day to him, and said to him, Is your heart true to mine, as mine is to yours? And Jehonadab in answer said, It is; and Jehu said, If it is, give me your hand. And he gave him his hand, and he made him come up into his carriage.

bbe@2Kings:10:17 @And when he came to Samaria, he put to death all those of Ahab's family who were still in Samaria, till there were no more of them, as the Lord had said to Elijah.

bbe@2Kings:10:23 @And Jehu, with Jehonadab, the son of Rechab, went into the house of Baal; and he said to the servants of Baal, Make a search with care, to see that no servant of the Lord is with you, but only servants of Baal.

bbe@2Kings:10:24 @Then they went in to make offerings and burned offerings. Now Jehu had put eighty men outside, and said to them, If any man whom I give into your hands gets away, the life of him who lets him go will be the price of his life.

bbe@2Kings:10:25 @Then when the burned offering was ended, straight away Jehu said to the armed men and the captains, Go in and put them to death; let not one come out. So they put them to the sword; and, pulling the images to the earth, they went into the holy place of the house of Baal.

bbe@2Kings:10:29 @But Jehu did not keep himself from all the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, and the evil he made Israel do; the gold oxen were still in Beth-el and in Dan.

bbe@2Kings:10:30 @And the Lord said to Jehu, Because you have done well in doing what is right in my eyes and effecting all my purpose for the family of Ahab, your sons will be kings of Israel to the fourth generation.

bbe@2Kings:10:34 @Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all he did, and his great power, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?

bbe@2Kings:10:35 @And Jehu went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Kings:10:36 @And the time of Jehu's rule over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.

bbe@2Kings:11:2 @But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, secretly took Joash, the son of Ahaziah, with the woman who took care of him, away from among the king's sons who were put to death, and put him in the bedroom; and they kept him safe from Athaliah, so that he was not put to death.

bbe@2Kings:11:9 @And the captains of hundreds did as Jehoiada the priest gave them orders; every one took with him his men, those who came in and those who went out on the Sabbath, and they came in to Jehoiada the priest.

bbe@2Kings:11:10 @And the priest gave to the captains of hundreds the spears and body-covers which had been King David's, and which were kept in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:11:15 @Then Jehoiada the priest gave orders to those who were placed in authority over the army, saying, Take her outside the lines, and let anyone who goes after her be put to death with the sword, for he said, Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:11:16 @So they put their hands on her, and she went to the king's house by the doorway of the horses, and there she was put to death.

bbe@2Kings:11:17 @And Jehoiada made an agreement between the Lord and the king and the people, that they would be the Lord's people; and in the same way between the king and the people.

bbe@2Kings:11:18 @Then all the people of the land went to the house of Baal and had it pulled down: its altars and images were all broken to bits, and Mattan, the priest of Baal, they put to death before the altars. And the priest put overseers over the Lord's house.

bbe@2Kings:11:20 @So all the people of the land were glad, and the town was quiet; and they had put Athaliah to death with the sword at the king's house.

bbe@2Kings:12:3 @But the high places were not taken away; the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.

bbe@2Kings:12:6 @But in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash, the priests had not made good the damaged parts of the house.

bbe@2Kings:12:11 @And the money which was measured out they gave regularly to those who were responsible for overseeing the work, and these gave it in payment to the woodworkers and the builders who were working on the house of the Lord,

bbe@2Kings:12:14 @But it was all given to the workmen who were building up the house.

bbe@2Kings:12:17 @Then Hazael, king of Aram, went up against Gath and took it; and his purpose was to go up to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Kings:12:18 @Then Jehoash, king of Judah, took all the holy things which Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah his fathers, the kings of Judah, had given to the Lord, together with the things he himself had given, and all the gold in the Temple store and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael, king of Aram; and he went away from Jerusalem.

bbe@2Kings:20:3 @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@2Kings:20:5 @Go back and say to Hezekiah, the ruler of my people, 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 make you well: on the third day you will go up to the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:20:8 @And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, What is to be the sign that the Lord will make me well, and that I will go up to the house of the Lord on the third day?

bbe@1Chronicles:11:1 @Then all Israel came together to David at Hebron, and said, Truly, we are your bone and your flesh.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:2 @In the past, when Saul was king, it was you who went at the head of Israel when they went out or came in; and the Lord your God said to you, You are to be the keeper of my people Israel, and their ruler.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:4 @Then David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (which is Jebus); and the Jebusites, the people of the land, were there.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:6 @And David said, The first to overcome the Jebusites will be chief and captain. And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, went up first, and became chief.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:7 @And David took the strong tower for his living-place, so it was named the town of David.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:9 @And David became greater and greater in power, because the Lord of armies was with him.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:10 @Now these are the chief of David's men of war who were his strong supporters in the kingdom, and, with all Israel, made him king, as the Lord had said about Israel.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:13 @He was with David at Pas-dammim, where the Philistines had come together for the fight, near a bit of land full of barley; and the people went in flight before the Philistines.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:15 @And three of the thirty went down to David, to the rock, into the strong place of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines had taken up their position in the valley of Rephaim.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:22 @Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, a fighting-man of Kabzeel, had done great acts; he put to death two young lions going into their secret place; and he went down into a hole and put a lion to death in time of snow.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:23 @And he made an attack on an Egyptian, a very tall man about five cubits high, armed with a spear like a cloth-worker's rod; he went down to him with a stick, and pulling his spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, put him to death with that same spear.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:24 @These were the acts of Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, who had a great name among the thirty men of war.

bbe@1Chronicles:11:26 @And these were the great men of war: Asahel, the brother of Joab, Elhanan, the son of Dodo of Beth-lehem,

bbe@1Chronicles:12:1 @Now these are the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he was still shut up, because of Saul, the son of Kish; they were among the strong men, his helpers in war.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:2 @They were armed with bows, and were able to send stones, and arrows from the bow, with right hand or left: they were Saul's brothers, of Benjamin.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:8 @And some of the Gadites, siding with David, went to his strong place in the waste land, great and strong men, trained for war, expert in the use of arms, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were quick-footed like roes on the mountains;

bbe@1Chronicles:12:14 @These Gadites were captains of the army; the least of them was captain over a hundred men, and the greatest over a thousand.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:15 @It was they who went over Jordan in the first month, when the river was overflowing, and put to flight all the people of the valleys, to the east and to the west.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:17 @And David went out to them, and said to them, If you have come in peace to give me help, my heart will be united with yours; but if you have come to give me up to those who would take my life, though my hands are clean from wrongdoing, then may the God of our fathers see it and give you punishment.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:18 @Then the spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the captains, and he said, We are yours, David, we are on your side, O son of Jesse: may peace be with you and peace be with your helpers; for God is your helper. Then David took them into his army and made them captains of the band.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:19 @And some of the men of Manasseh came over to David, when he went with the Philistines to the war against Saul, but he gave them no help: for the lords of the Philistines, after discussion, sent him away, saying, He will go back to his master Saul, at the price of our lives.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:20 @Then when he went back to Ziklag, there came over to him, of the men of Manasseh, Adnah and Jozabad and Jediael and Michael and Jozabad and Elihu and Zillethai, captains of thousands from the armies of Manasseh.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:21 @And they gave David help against the armed bands, for they were all great men of war, and captains in the army.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:24 @There were six thousand, eight hundred spearmen of the children of Judah, armed for war;

bbe@1Chronicles:12:28 @And Zadok, a young man, great and strong in war, with twenty-two captains from his father's people.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:30 @And of the children of Ephraim, twenty thousand, eight hundred great men of war, men of great name in their families.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:32 @And of the children of Issachar, there were two hundred chiefs, men who had expert knowledge of the times and what it was best for Israel to do, and all their brothers were under their orders.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:33 @Of Zebulun, there were fifty thousand men, who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight, to give help with all sorts of arms; true-hearted men.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:35 @And of the Danites, twenty-eight thousand, six hundred, expert in ordering the fight.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:36 @And of Asher, forty thousand who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:37 @From the other side of Jordan, there were a hundred and twenty thousand of the Reubenites and the Gadites and the men of the half-tribe of Manasseh, armed with every sort of instrument of war.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:38 @All these men of war, expert in ordering the fight, came to Hebron with the full purpose of making David king over all Israel; and all the rest of Israel were united in their desire to make David king.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:39 @For three days they were there with David, feasting at his table, for their brothers had made ready food for them.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:40 @And those who were near, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, came with food on asses and camels and mules and oxen, with meal for food and cakes of figs and masses of grapes, and wine and oil and oxen and sheep in great numbers, for there was joy in Israel.

bbe@1Chronicles:13:3 @And let us get back for ourselves the ark of our God: for in the days of Saul we did not go to it for directions.

bbe@1Chronicles:13:6 @And David went up, with all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath-jearim in Judah, to get up from there the ark of God, over which the holy Name is named, the name of the Lord whose place is between the winged ones.

bbe@1Chronicles:13:7 @And they put the ark of God on a new cart, and took it out of the house of Abinadab; and Uzza and Ahio were the drivers of the cart.

bbe@1Chronicles:13:9 @And when they came to the grain-floor of Chidon, Uzza put out his hand to keep the ark in its place, for the oxen were slipping.

bbe@1Chronicles:14:8 @And when the Philistines had news that David had been made king over all Israel, they went up in search of David, and David, hearing of it, went out against them.

bbe@1Chronicles:14:11 @So they went up to Baal-perazim, and David overcame them there, and David said, God has let the forces fighting against me be broken by my hand, as a wall is broken down by rushing water; so they gave that place the name of Baal-perazim.

bbe@1Chronicles:14:12 @And the Philistines did not take their images with them in their flight; and at David's orders they were burned with fire.

bbe@1Chronicles:14:13 @Then the Philistines again went out in every direction in the valley.

bbe@1Chronicles:14:14 @And David went for directions to God; and God said to him, You are not to go up after them; but, turning away from them, come face to face with them opposite the spice-trees.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:5 @Of the sons of Kohath: Uriel the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twenty;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:6 @Of the sons of Merari: Asaiah the chief, and his brothers, two hundred and twenty;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:10 @Of the sons of Uzziel: Amminadab the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twelve.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:13 @For because you did not take it at the first, the Lord our God sent punishment on us, because we did not get directions from him in the right way.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:17 @So Heman, the son of Joel, and, of his brothers, Asaph, the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brothers, Ethan, the son of Kushaiah, were put in position by the Levites;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:19 @So those who made melody, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were put in position, with brass instruments, sounding loudly;

bbe@1Chronicles:15:23 @And Berechiah and Elkanah were door-keepers for the ark.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:24 @And Shebaniah and Joshaphat and Nethanel and Amasai and Zechariah and Benaiah and Eliezer, the priests, made music on the horns before the ark of God; and Obed-edom and Jehiah were door-keepers for the ark.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:25 @So David, and the responsible men of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went with joy to get the ark of the agreement of the Lord out of the house of Obed-edom.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:26 @And when God gave help to the Levites who were lifting up the ark of the agreement of the Lord, they made an offering of seven oxen and seven sheep.

bbe@1Chronicles:15:27 @And David was clothed with a robe of fair linen, as were all the Levites who took up the ark, and those who made melody, and Chenaniah the master of those who made melody; and David had on a linen ephod;

bbe@1Chronicles:16:19 @When you were still small in number, and strange in the land;

bbe@1Chronicles:16:20 @When they went about from one nation to another, and from one kingdom to another people;

bbe@1Chronicles:16:35 @And say, Be our saviour, O God of our salvation, and let us come back, and give us salvation from the nations, so that we may give honour to your holy name and have glory in your praise.

bbe@1Chronicles:16:41 @And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest who were marked out by name to give praise to the Lord, for his mercy is unchanging for ever;

bbe@1Chronicles:16:42 @And Heman and Jeduthun had horns and brass instruments sounding loudly, and instruments of music for the songs of God; and the sons of Jeduthun were to be at the door.

bbe@1Chronicles:16:43 @And all the people went away, every man to his house; and David went back to give a blessing to his family.

bbe@1Chronicles:17:8 @And I have been with you wherever you went, cutting off before you all those who were against you; and I will make your name like the name of the greatest ones of the earth.

bbe@1Chronicles:17:9 @And I will make a resting-place for my people Israel, planting them there, so that they may be in the place which is theirs and never again be moved; and never again will they be made waste by evil men, as they were at first,

bbe@1Chronicles:17:16 @Then David the king went in and took his seat before the Lord, and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my family, that you have been my guide till now?

bbe@1Chronicles:18:3 @Then David overcame Hadadezer, king of Zobah, near Hamath, when he was going to make his power seen by the river Euphrates.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:4 @And David took from him a thousand war-carriages and seven thousand horsemen and twenty thousand footmen: and he had the leg-muscles of all the horses cut, keeping only enough of them for a hundred war-carriages.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:5 @And when the Aramaeans of Damascus came to the help of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David put to the sword twenty-two thousand Aramaeans.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:6 @Then David put armed forces in Damascus, and the Aramaeans became his servants and gave him offerings. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:13 @David put armed forces in all the towns of Edom; and all the Edomites became servants to David. The Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

bbe@1Chronicles:18:16 @And Zadok, the son of Ahitub; and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, were priests; and Shavsha was the scribe;

bbe@1Chronicles:18:17 @And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief of those whose places were at the king's side.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:5 @Then certain men went and gave David word of what had been done to them. And he sent out with the purpose of meeting them; for the men were greatly shamed. And the king said, Keep where you are at Jericho till your hair is long again, and then come back.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:9 @So the children of Ammon came out and put their forces in position on the way into the town; and the kings who had come were stationed by themselves in the field.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:10 @Now when Joab saw that their forces were in position against him in front and at his back, he took all the best men of Israel, and put them in line against the Aramaeans;

bbe@1Chronicles:19:14 @So Joab and the people who were with him went forward into the fight against the Aramaeans, and they went in flight before him.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:15 @And when the children of Ammon saw the flight of the Aramaeans, they themselves went in flight from Abishai, his brother, and came into the town. Then Joab came back to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:16 @And when the Aramaeans saw that Israel had overcome them, they sent men to get the Aramaeans who were on the other side of the River, with Shophach, the captain of Hadadezer's army, at their head.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:17 @And word of this was given to David; and he got all Israel together and went over Jordan and came to Helam and put his forces in position against them. And when David's forces were in position against the Aramaeans, the fight was started.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:18 @And the Aramaeans went in flight before Israel; and David put to the sword the men of seven thousand Aramaean war-carriages and forty thousand footmen, and put to death Shophach, the captain of the army.

bbe@1Chronicles:19:19 @And when the servants of Hadadezer saw that they were overcome by Israel, they made peace with David and became his servants: and the Aramaeans would give no more help to the children of Ammon.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:1 @Now in the spring, at the time when kings go out to war, Joab went out at the head of the armed forces and made waste all the land of the Ammonites and put his men in position before Rabbah, shutting it in. But David was still at Jerusalem. And Joab took Rabbah and made it waste.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:2 @And David took the crown of Milcom from off his head; its weight was a talent of gold and it had stones of great price in it; and it was put on David's head, and he took a great store of goods from the town.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:3 @And he took the people out of the town and put them to work with wood-cutting instruments, and iron grain-crushers, and axes. And this he did to all the towns of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:4 @Now after this there was war with the Philistines at Gezer; then Sibbecai the Hushathite put to death Sippai, one of the offspring of the Rephaim; and they were overcome.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:6 @And again there was war at Gath, where there was a very tall man, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet; he was one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

bbe@1Chronicles:20:8 @These were of the offspring of the Rephaim in Gath; they came to their death by the hands of David and his servants.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:4 @But the king's word was stronger than Joab's. So Joab went out and went through all Israel and came to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:5 @And Joab gave David the number of all the people; all the men of Israel, able to take up arms, were one million, one hundred thousand men; and those of Judah were four hundred and seventy thousand men, able to take up arms.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:6 @But Levi and Benjamin were not numbered among them, for Joab was disgusted with the king's order.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:12 @Three years when there will not be enough food; or three months of war, when you will go in flight before your haters, being in great danger of the sword; or three days of the sword of the Lord, disease in the land, and the angel of the Lord taking destruction through all the land of Israel. Now give thought to the answer I am to take back to him who sent me.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:16 @And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the angel of the Lord there between earth and heaven, with an uncovered sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the responsible men, clothed in haircloth, went down on their faces.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:19 @And David went up, as Gad had said in the name of the Lord.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:20 @And Ornan, turning back, saw the angel, and his four sons who were with him went to a secret place. Now Ornan was crushing his grain.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:21 @And when David came, Ornan, looking, saw him, and came out from the grain-floor and went down on his face to the earth before him.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:25 @So David gave Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:26 @And David put up an altar there to the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings with prayers to the Lord; and he gave him an answer from heaven, sending fire on the altar of burned offering.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:28 @At that time, when David saw that the Lord had given him an answer on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he made an offering there.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:29 @For the House of the Lord, which Moses had made in the waste land, and the altar of burned offerings, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.

bbe@1Chronicles:22:2 @And David gave orders to get together all the men from strange lands who were in the land of Israel; and he put stone-cutters to work, cutting stones for building the house of God.

bbe@1Chronicles:22:3 @And he got together a great store of iron, for the nails for the doors and for the joins; and brass, more in weight than might be measured;

bbe@1Chronicles:22:11 @Now, my son, may the Lord be with you; and may you do well, and put up the house of the Lord your God, as he has said of you.

bbe@1Chronicles:22:13 @And all will go well for you, if you take care to keep the laws and the rules which the Lord gave to Moses for Israel: be strong and take heart; have no fear and do not be troubled.

bbe@1Chronicles:22:14 @Now see, poor though I am, I have got ready for the house of the Lord a hundred thousand talents of gold and a million talents of silver; and a weight of brass and iron greater than may be measured; and wood and stone have I made ready, and you may put more to it.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:3 @And the Levites, all those of thirty years old and over, were numbered; and the number of them, by heads, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:4 @Of these, twenty-four thousand were to be overseers of the work of the house of the Lord, and six thousand were judges and men of authority;

bbe@1Chronicles:23:5 @Four thousand were door-keepers; and four thousand gave praise to the Lord with the instruments which I made, said David, for giving praise.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:9 @The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth and Haziel and Haran, three; these were the heads of the families of Ladan.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:10 @And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zizah and Jeush and Beriah; these four were the sons of Shimei.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:11 @Jahath was the chief and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah had only a small number of sons, so they were grouped together as one family.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:14 @And the sons of Moses, the man of God, were put into the list of the tribe of Levi.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:24 @These were the sons of Levi, grouped by families, the heads of the families of those who were numbered by name, by heads, all those of twenty years old and over who did the work of the house of the Lord.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:27 @So among the last acts of David was the numbering of the sons of Levi, from twenty years old and over.

bbe@1Chronicles:23:29 @The holy bread was in their care, and the crushed grain for the meal offering, of unleavened cakes or meal cooked over the fire or in water; they had control of all sorts of weights and measures;

bbe@1Chronicles:24:1 @Now the divisions into which the sons of Aaron were grouped were these: the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:4 @And there were more chiefs among the sons of Eleazar than among the sons of Ithamar; and this is how they were grouped: of the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen, all heads of families; and of the sons of Ithamar, heads of families, there were eight.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:5 @So they were put into groups, by the Lord's decision, one with another; for there were rulers of the holy place and rulers of the house of God among the sons of Eleazar and the sons of Ithamar.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:12 @The eleventh Eliashib, the twelfth Jakim,

bbe@1Chronicles:24:16 @The nineteenth Pethahiah, the twentieth Jehezkel,

bbe@1Chronicles:24:17 @The twenty-first Jachin, the twenty-second Gamul,

bbe@1Chronicles:24:18 @The twenty-third Delaiah, the twenty-fourth Maaziah.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:19 @So they were put into their different groups, to take their places in the house of the Lord, in agreement with the rules made by Aaron their father, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had given him orders.

bbe@1Chronicles:24:30 @And the sons of Mushi: Mahli and Eder and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites by their families.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:5 @All these were sons of Heman, the king's seer in the words of God. And to make great his power God gave Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:7 @And the number of them, with their brothers who were trained and expert in making melody to the Lord, was two hundred and eighty-eight.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:8 @And selection was made of them for their special work, all having equal chances, small as well as great, the teacher as the learner.

bbe@1Chronicles:25:9 @Now of the group of Asaph, the first name to come out was Joseph; the second Gedaliah; he and his brothers and sons were twelve?

bbe@1Chronicles:27:23 @But David did not take the number of those who were under twenty years old, for the Lord had said that he would make Israel like the stars of heaven in number.

bbe@1Chronicles:27:31 @The flocks were in the care of Jaziz the Hagarite. All these were the controllers of King David's property.

bbe@1Chronicles:28:14 @Of gold, by weight, for the vessels of gold, for all the vessels of different uses; and silver for all the vessels of silver by weight, for vessels of different uses;

bbe@1Chronicles:28:15 @And gold by weight for the light-supports and the vessels for the lights, the weight of gold needed for every support and every vessel for lights; and for the silver light-supports, the weight of silver needed for every support and for the different vessels as every one was to be used;

bbe@1Chronicles:28:16 @And gold by weight for the tables for the holy bread for every table, and silver for the silver tables;

bbe@1Chronicles:28:17 @Clear gold for the meat-hooks and the basins and the cups; for the gold basins, gold enough by weight for every basin; and silver by weight for every silver basin;

bbe@1Chronicles:28:18 @And the best gold for the altar of perfumes; and gold for the design of the carriage, for the winged ones whose wings were outstretched covering the ark of the Lord's agreement.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:2 @Now as far as I am able, I have made ready what is needed for the house of my God; the gold for the things of gold, and the silver for the silver things, and the brass for the brass things, iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood; beryls and jewels to be framed, and stones of different colours for ornament; all sorts of stones of great price, and polished building-stone, as much as is needed and more.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:9 @Then the people were glad because their offerings were freely given, for with a true heart they freely gave what they had to the Lord; and David the king was full of joy.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:11 @Yours, O Lord, is the strength and the power and the glory, and the authority and the honour: for everything in heaven and on earth is yours; yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are lifted up as head over all.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:12 @Wealth and honour come from you, and you are ruler over all, and in your hand is power and strength; it is in your power to make great, and to give strength to all.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:13 @So now, our God, we give you praise, honouring the glory of your name.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:14 @But who am I and what is my people, that we have power to give so freely in this way? for all things come from you, and what we have given you is yours.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:15 @For we, as all our fathers were, are like men from a strange country before you, who have got a place for a time in the land; our days on the earth are like a shade, and there is no hope of going on.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:16 @O Lord our God, all this store, which we have made ready for the building of a house for your holy name, comes from your hand and is yours.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:21 @And they made offerings to the Lord, and gave burned offerings to the Lord, on the day after, a thousand oxen, a thousand sheep, and a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and a great wealth of offerings for all Israel.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:23 @So Solomon was put on the seat of the Lord as king in place of his father David, and everything went well for him; and all Israel was under his authority.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:28 @And he came to his end after a long life, full of days and great wealth and honour; and Solomon his son became king in his place.

bbe@1Chronicles:29:30 @Together with all his rule and his power, and the events which took place in his time, in Israel and in all the kingdoms of other lands.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:3 @Then Solomon, and all the men of Israel with him, went to the high place at Gibeon, because the Tent of meeting of God, which Moses, the servant of the Lord, had made in the waste land, was there.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:5 @And the altar of brass which Bezalel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the Tent of the Lord; and Solomon and all the people went to give worship there.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:6 @And Solomon went up there to the brass altar before the Lord at the Tent of meeting, offering on it a thousand burned offerings.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:12 @Wisdom and knowledge are given to you; and I will give you wealth and honour, such as no king has had before you or ever will have after you.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:13 @So Solomon went back from the high place at Gibeon, from before the Tent of meeting, to Jerusalem; and he was king over Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:1:14 @And Solomon got together war-carriages and horsemen; he had one thousand, four hundred carriages and twelve thousand horsemen, which he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king at Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:4 @See! I am building a house for the name of the Lord my God, to be made holy to him, where perfumes of sweet spices will be burned before him, and the holy bread will be placed at all times, and burned offerings will be offered morning and evening, on the Sabbaths and at the new moons, and on the regular feasts of the Lord our God. This is a law for ever to Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:10 @And I will give as food to your servants, the wood-cutters, twenty thousand measures of grain, and twenty thousand measures of barley and twenty thousand measures of wine and twenty thousand measures of oil.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:11 @Then Huram, king of Tyre, sent Solomon an answer in writing, saying, Because of his love for his people the Lord has made you king over them.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:16 @And we will have wood cut from Lebanon, as much as you have need of, and will send it to you on flat boats by sea to Joppa, and from there you may take it up to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:2:17 @Then Solomon took the number of all the men from strange lands who were living in Israel, as his father David had done; there were a hundred and fifty-three thousand, six hundred.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:3 @And Solomon put the base of the house of God in position; by the older measure it was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:4 @And the covered way in front of the house was twenty cubits long, as wide as the house, and a hundred and twenty cubits high, all plated inside with the best gold.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:7 @All the house was plated with gold, the supports, the steps, the walls and the doors; and the walls were ornamented with designs of winged ones.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:8 @And he made the most holy place; it was twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits wide, like the greater house, and was plated all over with the best gold; six hundred talents were used for it.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:9 @And fifty shekels weight of gold was used for the nails. He had all the higher rooms plated with gold.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:11 @Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; one wing, five cubits long, touching the wall of the house, and the other, of the same size, meeting the wing of the other winged one.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:12 @And in the same way, the wings of the other, five cubits long, were stretched out, one touching the wall and the other meeting the wing of the first winged one.

bbe@2Chronicles:3:13 @Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; they were placed upright on their feet, facing the inner part of the house.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:1 @Then he made a brass altar, twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide and ten cubits high.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:3 @And under it was a design of flowers all round it, ten to a cubit, circling the water-vessel in two lines; they were made from liquid metal at the same time as the water-vessel.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:4 @It was supported on twelve oxen, three facing to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east, the water-vessel resting on top of them; their back parts were all turned to the middle of it.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:5 @It was as thick as a man's open hand, and the edge of it was curved like the edge of a cup, like a lily flower; it would take three thousand baths.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:6 @And he made ten washing-vessels, putting five on the right side and five on the left; such things as were used in making the burned offering were washed in them; but the great water-vessel was to be used by the priests for washing themselves.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:14 @And he made the ten bases and the ten washing-vessels which were on the bases;

bbe@2Chronicles:4:15 @The great water-vessel with the twelve oxen under it.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:16 @All the pots and the spades and the meat-hooks and their vessels, which Huram, who was as his father, made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of polished brass.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:17 @The king made them of liquid metal in the lowland of Jordan, in the soft earth between Succoth and Zeredah.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:18 @So Solomon made all these vessels, a very great store of them, and the weight of the brass used was not measured.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:21 @The flowers and the vessels for the lights and the instruments used for them, were all of gold; it was the best gold.

bbe@2Chronicles:4:22 @The scissors and the basins and the spoons and the fire-trays, of the best gold; and the inner doors of the house, opening into the most holy place, and the doors of the Temple, were all of gold.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:5 @They took up the ark and the Tent of meeting and all the holy vessels which were in the Tent; all these the priests, the Levites, took up.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:6 @And King Solomon and all the men of Israel who had come together there with him, were before the ark, making offerings of sheep and oxen more than might be numbered.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:8 @For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:9 @The rods were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place before the inmost room; but they were not seen from outside; and there they are to this day.

bbe@2Chronicles:5:11 @Now when the priests had come out of the holy place, (for all the priests who were present had made themselves holy, not keeping to their divisions;

bbe@2Chronicles:5:12 @And the Levites who made the music, all of them, Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and brothers, robed in fair linen, were in their places with their brass and corded instruments at the east side of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests blowing horns;)

bbe@2Chronicles:5:13 @And when the players on horns, and those who made melody in song, with one voice were sounding the praise and glory of the Lord; with loud voices and with wind instruments, and brass and corded instruments of music, praising the Lord and saying, He is good; his mercy is unchanging for ever: then the house was full of the cloud of the glory of the Lord,

bbe@2Chronicles:5:14 @So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud; for the house of God was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:3 @Then, turning his face about, the king gave a blessing to all the men of Israel; and they were all on their feet together.

bbe@2Chronicles:6:8 @But the Lord said to David my father, You did well to have in your heart the desire to make a house for my name:

bbe@2Chronicles:6:13 @(For Solomon had made a brass stage, five cubits long, five cubits wide and three cubits high, and had put it in the middle of the open space; on this he took his place and went down on his knees before all the meeting of Israel, stretching out his hands to heaven.)

bbe@2Chronicles:6:30 @Then give ear from heaven your living-place, answering with forgiveness, and give to every man, whose secret heart is open to you, the reward of all his ways; (for you, and you only, have knowledge of the hearts of the children of men;)

bbe@2Chronicles:6:36 @If they do wrong against you, (for no man is without sin,) and you are angry with them, and give them up into the power of those who are fighting against them, so that they take them away prisoners to a land far off or near;

bbe@2Chronicles:6:37 @And if they take thought, in the land where they are prisoners, turning again to you, crying out in prayer to you in that land, and saying, We are sinners, we have done wrong, we have done evil;

bbe@2Chronicles:6:39 @Then give ear from heaven your living-place to their prayer and their cry, and see right done to them, answering with forgiveness your people who have done wrong against you.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:1 @Now when Solomon's prayers were ended, fire came down from heaven, burning up all the offerings; and the house was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:2 @And the priests were not able to go into the house of the Lord, for the Lord's house was full of the glory of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:3 @And all the children of Israel were looking on when the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord was on the house; and they went down on their knees, with their faces to the earth, worshipping and praising the Lord, and saying, He is good; for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:5 @King Solomon made an offering of twenty-two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the people kept the feast of the opening of the house of God.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:6 @And the priests were in their places, and the Levites with their instruments of music for the Lord's song, which David the king had made for the praise of the Lord whose mercy is unchanging for ever, when David gave praise by their hand; and the priests were sounding horns before them; and all Israel were on their feet.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:9 @And on the eighth day they had a holy meeting; the offerings for making the altar holy went on for seven days, and the feast for seven days.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:10 @And on the twenty-third day of the seventh month, he sent the people away to their tents, full of joy and glad in their hearts, because of all the good which the Lord had done to David and to Solomon and to Israel his people.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:11 @So Solomon came to the end of building the house of the Lord and the king's house; and everything which it was in his mind to make in the house of the Lord and for himself had been well done.

bbe@2Chronicles:7:22 @And their answer will be, Because they were turned away from the Lord, the God of their fathers, who took them out of the land of Egypt, and took for themselves other gods and gave them worship and became their servants: that is why he has sent all this evil on them.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:1 @Now at the end of twenty years, in which time Solomon had put up the house of the Lord and a house for himself,

bbe@2Chronicles:8:3 @And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and overcame it.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:5 @And of Beth-horon the higher and the lower, walled towns with walls and doorways and locks;

bbe@2Chronicles:8:7 @As for all the rest of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel:

bbe@2Chronicles:8:8 @Their men who were still living in the land, and whom the children of Israel had not put an end to, these Solomon put to forced work, as is done to this day;

bbe@2Chronicles:8:9 @But Solomon did not make use of the children of Israel as servants for his work; they were men of war, his chiefs and his captains, and captains of his war-carriages and his horsemen.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:10 @Now these were the chief men in authority whom King Solomon had: two hundred and fifty of them, in authority over the people.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:13 @Offering every day what had been ordered by Moses, on the Sabbaths and at the new moon and at the regular feasts three times a year, that is at the feast of unleavened bread, the feast of weeks, and the feast of tents.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:15 @All the orders given by the king to the priests and Levites, in connection with any business or stores, were done with care.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:17 @Then Solomon went to Ezion-geber and to Eloth by the sea in the land of Edom.

bbe@2Chronicles:8:18 @And Huram sent him, by his servants, ships and experienced seamen, who went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir and came back with four hundred and fifty talents of gold, which they took to King Solomon

bbe@2Chronicles:9:1 @Now the queen of Sheba, hearing great things of Solomon, came to Jerusalem to put his wisdom to the test with hard questions; and with her came a very great train, and camels weighted down with spices, and great stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:2 @And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which he did not make clear to her.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:4 @And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants and their robes, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:9 @And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a great store of spices and jewels: never had such spices been seen as the queen of Sheba gave to Solomon.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:10 @And the servants of Huram and the servants of Solomon, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with sandal-wood and jewels.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:12 @And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what she had taken to the king. So she went back to her country with her servants.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:13 @Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;

bbe@2Chronicles:9:18 @There were six steps up to it, and a foot-rest of gold fixed to it, and arms on the two sides of the seat, with two lions at the side of the arms.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:19 @And twelve lions were placed on one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:20 @All King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold: no one gave a thought to silver in the days of Solomon

bbe@2Chronicles:9:22 @And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:25 @Solomon had four thousand buildings for his horses and his war-carriages, and twelve thousand horsemen whom he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king in Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:9:31 @And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:1 @And Rehoboam went to Shechem, where all Israel had come together to make him king.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:4 @Your father put a hard yoke on us: if you will make the conditions under which your father kept us down less cruel, and the weight of the yoke he put on us less hard, then we will be your servants.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:5 @And he said to them, Come to me again after three days. So the people went away.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:6 @Then King Rehoboam took the opinion of the old men who had been with Solomon his father when he was living, and said, In your opinion, what answer am I to give to this people?

bbe@2Chronicles:10:8 @But he gave no attention to the opinion of the old men, but went to the young men of his generation who were waiting before him.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:9 @And he said to them, What is your opinion? What answer are we to give to this people who have said to me, Make less the weight of the yoke which your father put on us?

bbe@2Chronicles:10:10 @And the young men of his generation said to him, This is the answer to give to the people who came to you saying, Your father put a hard yoke on us, but will you make it less; say to them, My little finger is thicker than my father's body;

bbe@2Chronicles:10:13 @And the king gave them a rough answer. So King Rehoboam gave no attention to the suggestion of the old men,

bbe@2Chronicles:10:14 @But gave them the answer put forward by the young men, saying, My father made your yoke hard, but I will make it harder; my father gave you punishment with whips, but I will give it with snakes.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:16 @And when all Israel saw that the king would give no attention to them, the people in answer said to the king, What part have we in David? what is our heritage in the son of Jesse? every man to your tents, O Israel; now see to your house, David. So all Israel went to their tents.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:17 @But Rehoboam was still king over those of the children of Israel who were living in the towns of Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:10:18 @Then Rehoboam sent Adoniram, the overseer of the forced work; and he was stoned to death by all Israel. And King Rehoboam went quickly and got into his carriage to go in flight to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:4 @The Lord has said, You are not to go to war against your brothers: let every man go back to his house, for this thing is my purpose. So they gave ear to the words of the Lord and were turned back from fighting against Jeroboam.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:12 @And in every town he put stores of body-covers and spears, and made them very strong. And Judah and Benjamin were his.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:13 @And the priests and Levites who were in all Israel came together to him from every part of their country.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:16 @And after them, from all the tribes of Israel, all those whose hearts were fixed and true to the Lord, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to make offerings to the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:17 @So they went on increasing the power of the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, strong for three years; and for three years they went in the ways of David and Solomon.

bbe@2Chronicles:11:21 @Maacah, the daughter of Absalom, was dearer to Rehoboam than all his wives and his servant-wives: (for he had eighteen wives and sixty servant-wives, and was the father of twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.)

bbe@2Chronicles:12:3 @With twelve hundred war-carriages and sixty thousand horsemen: and the people who came with him out of Egypt were more than might be numbered: Lubim and Sukkiim and Ethiopians.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:9 @So Shishak, king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem and took away all the stored wealth of the house of the Lord and the king's house: he took everything away, and with the rest the gold body-covers which Solomon had made.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:10 @And in their place King Rehoboam had other body-covers made of brass and gave them into the care of the captains of the armed men who were stationed at the door of the king's house.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:11 @And whenever the king went into the house of the Lord, the armed men went with him taking the body-covers, and then took them back to their room.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:15 @Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not recorded in the words of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

bbe@2Chronicles:12:16 @And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David; and Abijah his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:2 @He was king in Jerusalem for three years; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:3 @And Abijah went out to the fight with an army of men of war, four hundred thousand of his best men; and Jeroboam put his forces in line against him, eight hundred thousand of his best men of war.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:7 @And certain foolish and good-for-nothing men were joined with him, and made themselves strong against Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, when he was young and untested and not able to keep them back.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:10 @But as for us, the Lord is our God, and we have not been turned away from him; we have priests who do the work of the Lord, even the sons of Aaron and the Levites in their places;

bbe@2Chronicles:13:11 @By whom burned offerings and perfumes are sent up in smoke before the Lord every morning and every evening; and they put out the holy bread on its table and the gold support for the lights with its lights burning every evening; for we keep the orders given to us by the Lord our God, but you have gone away from him.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:12 @And now God is with us at our head, and his priests with their loud horns sounding against you. O children of Israel, do not make war on the Lord, the God of your fathers, for it will not go well for you.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:13 @But Jeroboam had put some of his men to make a surprise attack on them from the back, so some were facing Judah and others were stationed secretly at their back.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:14 @And Judah, turning their faces, saw that they were being attacked in front and at the back; and they gave a cry for help to the Lord, while the priests were sounding their horns.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:16 @And the children of Israel went in flight before Judah, and God gave them up into their hands.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:17 @And Abijah and his people put them to death with great destruction: five hundred thousand of the best of Israel were put to the sword.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:18 @So at that time the children of Israel were overcome, and the children of Judah got the better of them, because they put their faith in the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:19 @And Abijah went after Jeroboam and took some of his towns, Beth-el with its small towns and Jeshanah with its small towns and Ephron with its small towns.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:20 @And Jeroboam did not get back his power again in the life-time of Abijah; and the Lord sent death on him.

bbe@2Chronicles:13:21 @But Abijah became great, and had fourteen wives, and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:1 @So Abijah went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David, and Asa his son became king in his place; in his time the land was quiet for ten years.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:6 @He made walled towns in Judah, for the land was quiet and there were no wars in those years, because the Lord had given him rest.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:7 @He said to Judah, Let us make these towns, building walls round them with towers and doors and locks. The land is still ours, because we have been true to the Lord our God; we have been true to him and he has given us rest on every side. So they went on building and all went well for them.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:8 @And Asa had an army of three hundred thousand men of Judah armed with body-covers and spears, and two hundred and eighty thousand of Benjamin armed with body-covers and bows; all these were men of war.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:10 @And Asa went out against him, and they put their forces in position in the valley north of Mareshah.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:11 @And Asa made prayer to the Lord his God and said, Lord, you only are able to give help against the strong to him who has no strength; come to our help, O Lord our God, for our hope is in you, and in your name we have come out against this great army. O Lord, you are our God; let not man's power be greater than yours.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:12 @So the Lord sent fear on the Ethiopians before Asa and Judah; and the Ethiopians went in flight.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:13 @And Asa and the people who were with him went after them as far as Gerar; and so great was the destruction among the Ethiopians that they were not able to get their army together again, for they were broken before the Lord and before his army; and they took away a great amount of their goods.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:14 @And they overcame all the towns round Gerar, because the Lord sent fear on them; and they took away their goods from the towns, for there were stores of wealth in them.

bbe@2Chronicles:14:15 @And they made an attack on the tents of the owners of the cattle, and took away great numbers of sheep and camels and went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:4 @But when in their trouble they were turned to the Lord, the God of Israel, searching after him, he let their search be rewarded.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:5 @In those times there was no peace for him who went out or for him who came in, but great trouble was on all the people of the lands.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:6 @And they were broken by divisions, nation against nation and town against town, because God sent all sorts of trouble on them.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:9 @And he got together all Judah and Benjamin and those of Ephraim and Manasseh and Simeon who were living with them; for numbers of them came to him out of Israel when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.

bbe@2Chronicles:15:17 @But the high places were not taken away out of Israel; but still the heart of Asa was true to the Lord all his life.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:1 @In the thirty-sixth year of the rule of Asa, Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:3 @Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:8 @Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubim a very great army, with war-carriages and horsemen more than might be numbered? but because your faith was in the Lord, he gave them up into your hands.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:13 @So Asa went to rest with his fathers, and death came to him in the forty-first year of his rule.

bbe@2Chronicles:16:14 @And they put him into the resting-place which he had made for himself in the town of David, in a bed full of sweet perfumes of all sorts of spices, made by the perfumer's art, and they made a great burning for him.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:3 @And the Lord was with Jehoshaphat, because he went in the early ways of his father, not turning to the Baals,

bbe@2Chronicles:17:5 @So the Lord made his kingdom strong; and all Judah gave offerings to Jehoshaphat, and he had great wealth and honour.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:6 @His heart was lifted up in the ways of the Lord; and he went so far as to take away the high places and the wood pillars out of Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:9 @And they gave teaching in Judah and had the book of the law of the Lord with them; they went through all the towns of Judah teaching the people.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:12 @Jehoshaphat became greater and greater, and made strong towers and store-towns in Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:17:19 @These were the men who were waiting on the king, in addition to those placed by the king in the walled towns through all Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:1 @Now Jehoshaphat had great wealth and honour, and his son was married to Ahab's daughter.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:2 @And after some years he went down to Samaria to see Ahab. And Ahab made a feast for him and the people who were with him, putting to death great numbers of sheep and oxen; and he got Jehoshaphat to go with him to Ramoth-gilead.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:3 @For Ahab, king of Israel, said to Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, Will you go with me to Ramoth-gilead? And he said, I am as you are, and my people as your people; we will be with you in the war.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:6 @But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no other prophet of the Lord here from whom we may get directions?

bbe@2Chronicles:18:7 @And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, but I have no love for him, because he has never been a prophet of good to me, but only of evil: he is Micaiah, the son of Imla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:9 @Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, were seated on their seats of authority, dressed in their robes, by the doorway into Samaria; and all the prophets were acting as prophets before them.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:11 @And all the prophets said the same thing, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and it will go well for you, for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:14 @When he came to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, are we to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And he said, Go up, and it will go well for you; and they will be given up into your hands.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:18 @Then he said, Give ear now to the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord seated on his seat of power, and all the army of heaven in their places, at his right hand and at his left.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:28 @So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went up to Ramoth-gilead.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:29 @And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will make a change in my clothing, so that I do not seem to be the king, and will go into the fight; but do you put on your robes. So the king of Israel made a change in his dress, and they went to the fight.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:32 @Now when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him.

bbe@2Chronicles:18:34 @But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king of Israel was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans till the evening; and by sundown he was dead.

bbe@2Chronicles:19:1 @And Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, went back to his house in Jerusalem in peace.

bbe@2Chronicles:19:2 @And Jehu, the son of Hanani the seer, went to King Jehoshaphat and said to him, Is it right for you to go to the help of evil-doers, loving the haters of the Lord? because of this, the wrath of the Lord has come on you.

bbe@2Chronicles:19:4 @And Jehoshaphat was living in Jerusalem; and he went out again among the people, from Beer-sheba to the hill-country of Ephraim, guiding them back to the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:3 @Then Jehoshaphat, in his fear, went to the Lord for directions, and gave orders all through Judah for the people to go without food.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:6 @And said, O Lord, the God of our fathers, are you not God in heaven? are you not ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? and in your hands are power and strength so that no one is able to keep his place against you.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:9 @If evil comes on us, the sword, or punishment, or disease, or need of food, we will come to this house and to you, (for your name is in this house,) crying to you in our trouble, and you will give us salvation in answer to our cry.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:12 @O our God, will you not be their judge? for our strength is not equal to this great army which is coming against us; and we are at a loss what to do: but our eyes are on you

bbe@2Chronicles:20:13 @And all Judah were waiting before the Lord, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:18 @Then Jehoshaphat went down with his face to the earth, and all Judah and the people of Jerusalem gave worship to the Lord, falling down before him.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:20 @And early in the morning they got up and went out to the waste land of Tekoa: and when they were going out, Jehoshaphat took his station and said to them, Give ear to me, O Judah and you people of Jerusalem: have faith in the Lord your God and you will be safe; have faith in his prophets and all will go well for you.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:21 @And after discussion with the people, he put in their places those who were to make melody to the Lord, praising him in holy robes, while they went at the head of the army, and saying, May the Lord be praised, for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:22 @And at the first notes of song and praise the Lord sent a surprise attack against the children of Ammon and Moab and the people of Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were overcome.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:24 @And Judah came to the watchtower of the waste land, and looking in the direction of the army, they saw only dead bodies stretched on the earth; no living man was to be seen.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:25 @And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their goods from them, they saw beasts in great numbers, and wealth and clothing and things of value, more than they were able to take away; all this they took for themselves, and they were three days getting it away, there was so much.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:27 @Then all the men of Judah and Jerusalem went back, with Jehoshaphat at their head, coming back to Jerusalem with joy; for the Lord had made them glad over their haters.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:31 @And Jehoshaphat was king over Judah: he was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling for twenty-five years in Jerusalem: his mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:32 @He went in the ways of his father Asa, not turning away, but doing right in the eyes of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:33 @The high places, however, were not taken away, and the hearts of the people were still not true to the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:34 @Now as for the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, they are recorded in the words of Jehu, the son of Hanani, which were put in the book of the kings of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:20:37 @Then the word of Eliezer the prophet, the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah, came against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because you have let yourself be joined with Ahaziah, the Lord has sent destruction on your works. And the ships were broken and were not able to go to Tarshish.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:1 @And Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David. And Jehoram his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:2 @And he had brothers, sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; all these were sons of Jehoshaphat, king of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:3 @And their father gave them much silver and gold and things of great value, as well as walled towns in Judah; but the kingdom he gave to Jehoram, because he was the oldest.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:4 @Now when Jehoram had taken his place over his father's kingdom, and had made his position safe, he put all his brothers to death with the sword, as well as some of the princes of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:6 @He went in the ways of the kings of Israel, and did as the family of Ahab did, for the daughter of Ahab was his wife; and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:9 @Then Jehoram went over with his captains and all his war-carriages... made an attack by night on the Edomites, whose forces were all round him... on the captains of the war-carriages.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:13 @But have gone in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the people of Jerusalem go after false gods, as the family of Ahab did: and because you have put to death your father's sons, your brothers, who were better than yourself:

bbe@2Chronicles:21:16 @Then the Philistines and the Arabians, who are by Ethiopia, were moved by the Lord to make war on Jehoram;

bbe@2Chronicles:21:17 @And they came up against Judah, forcing a way into it, and took away all the goods in the king's house, as well as his sons and his wives; so that he had no son but only Jehoahaz, the youngest.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:18 @And after all this the Lord sent on him a disease of the stomach from which it was impossible for him to be made well.

bbe@2Chronicles:21:19 @And time went on, and after two years, his inside falling out because of the disease, he came to his death in cruel pain. And his people made no burning for him like the burning made for his fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:2 @Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:3 @He went in the ways of the family of Ahab, for his mother was his teacher in evil-doing.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:4 @And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as the family of Ahab did; for after the death of his father they were his guides to his destruction.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:5 @Acting on their suggestion, he went with Jehoram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, to make war on Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead: and Joram was wounded by the bowmen.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:6 @And he went back to Jezreel to get well from the wounds which they had given him at Ramah when he was fighting against Hazael, king of Aram. And Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to Jezreel to see Jehoram, the son of Ahab, because he was ill.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:7 @Now by the purpose of God, Ahaziah's journey to see Jehoram was the cause of his downfall: for when he came there, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu, the son of Nimshi, who had been marked out by the Lord for the destruction of the family of Ahab.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:9 @And he went in search of Ahaziah; and when they came where he was, (for he was in a secret place in Samaria,) they took him to Jehu and put him to death; then they put his body to rest in the earth, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, whose heart was true to the Lord. So the family of Ahaziah had no power to keep the kingdom.

bbe@2Chronicles:22:11 @But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, secretly took Joash, the son of Ahaziah, away from among the king's sons who were put to death, and put him and the woman who took care of him in a bedroom. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest and sister of Ahaziah, kept him safe from Athaliah, so that she did not put him to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:2 @And they went through Judah, getting together the Levites and the heads of families in Israel from all the towns of Judah, and they came to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:8 @So the Levites and all Judah did as Jehoiada the priest had given them orders: every one took with him his men, those who were to come in and those who were to go out on the Sabbath; for Jehoiada had not sent away the divisions.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:9 @Then Jehoiada the priest gave to the captains of hundreds the spears and body-covers which had been King David's and which were kept in the house of God.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:13 @And looking, she saw the king in his place by the pillar at the doorway, and the captains and the horns by his side; and all the people of the land were giving signs of joy and sounding the horns; and the makers of melody were playing on instruments of music, taking the chief part in the song of praise. Then Athaliah, violently parting her robes, said, Broken faith, broken faith!

bbe@2Chronicles:23:15 @So they put their hands on her, and she went to the king's house by the doorway of the king's horses; and there she was put to death.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:16 @And Jehoiada made an agreement between the Lord and all the people and the king, that they would be the Lord's people.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:17 @Then all the people went to the house of Baal and had it pulled down, and its altars and images broken up; and Mattan, the priest of Baal, they put to death before the altars.

bbe@2Chronicles:23:21 @So all the people of the land were glad and the town was quiet, for they had put Athaliah to death with the sword.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:5 @And getting together the priests and Levites, he said to them, Go out into the towns of Judah year by year, and get from all Israel money to keep the house of your God in good condition; and see that this is done without loss of time. The Levites, however, were slow in doing so.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:12 @Then the king and Jehoiada gave it to those who were responsible for getting the work done on the Lord's house, and with it they got wall-builders and woodworkers and metal-workers to put the house of the Lord in good order again.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:14 @And when the work was done, they took the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada, and it was used for making the vessels for the house of the Lord, all the vessels needed for the offerings, the spoons and the vessels of gold and silver. And as long as Jehoiada was living, the regular burned offerings were offered in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:17 @Now after the death of Jehoiada, the chiefs of Judah came and went down on their faces before the king. Then the king gave ear to them.

bbe@2Chronicles:24:26 @Those who made designs against him were Zabad, the son of Shimeath, an Ammonite woman, and Jehozabad, the son of Shimrith, a Moabite woman.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:1 @Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:5 @Then Amaziah got all Judah together and put them in order by their families, even all Judah and Benjamin, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds: and he had those of twenty years old and over numbered, and they came to three hundred thousand of the best fighting-men, trained for war and in the use of the spear and the body-cover.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:8 @But go yourself, and be strong in war; God will not let you go down before those who are fighting against you; for God has power to give help or to send you down before your attackers.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:9 @Then Amaziah said to the man of God, But what is to be done about the hundred talents which I have given for the armed band of Israel? And the man of God in answer said, God is able to give you much more than this

bbe@2Chronicles:25:10 @So Amaziah, separating the armed band which had come to him from Ephraim, sent them back again; which made them very angry with Judah, and they went back burning with wrath.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:11 @Then Amaziah took heart, and went out at the head of his people and came to the Valley of Salt, where he put to death ten thousand of the children of Seir;

bbe@2Chronicles:25:12 @And ten thousand more the children of Israel took living, and made them go up to the top of the rock, pushing them down from the top of the rock so that their bodies were broken by the fall.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:16 @But while he was talking to him the king said to him, Have we made you one of the king's government? say no more, or it will be the cause of your death. Then the prophet gave up protesting, and said, It is clear to me that God's purpose is your destruction, because you have done this and have not given ear to my words.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:18 @And Joash, king of Israel, sent to Amaziah, king of Judah, saying, The thorn-tree in Lebanon sent to the cedar in Lebanon, saying, Give your daughter to my son for a wife: and a beast from the woodland in Lebanon went by, crushing the thorn under his feet.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:21 @And so Joash, king of Israel, went up; and he and Amaziah, king of Judah, came face to face at Beth-shemesh in Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:22 @And Judah was overcome before Israel, and they went in flight, every man to his tent.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:24 @And he took all the gold and silver and all the vessels which were in the house of the Lord, under the care of Obed-edom, and all the wealth from the king's house, as well as those whose lives would be the price of broken faith, and went back to Samaria.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:25 @Amaziah, son of Joash, king of Judah, went on living for fifteen years after the death of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:25:27 @Now from the time when Amaziah gave up worshipping the Lord, they made secret designs against him in Jerusalem; and he went in flight to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him and put him to death there.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:5 @He gave himself to searching after God in the days of Zechariah, who made men wise in the fear of God; and as long as he was true to the Lord, God made things go well for him.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:6 @He went out and made war against the Philistines, pulling down the walls of Gath and Jabneh and Ashdod, and building towns in the country round Ashdod and among the Philistines.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:8 @The Ammonites gave offerings to Uzziah: and news of him went out as far as the limit of Egypt; for he became very great in power.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:9 @Uzziah made towers in Jerusalem, at the doorway in the angle and at the doorway in the valley and at the turn of the wall, arming them.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:10 @And he put up towers in the waste land and made places for storing water, for he had much cattle, in the low hills and in the table land; and he had farmers and vine-keepers in the mountains and in the fertile land, for he was a lover of farming.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:11 @In addition, Uzziah had an army of fighting-men who went out to war in bands, as they had been listed by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the authority of Hananiah, one of the king's captains

bbe@2Chronicles:26:12 @The heads of families, the strong men of war, were two thousand, six hundred.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:15 @And in Jerusalem he made machines, the invention of expert men, to be placed on the towers and angles of the walls for sending arrows and great stones. And his name was honoured far and wide; for he was greatly helped till he was strong.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:16 @But when he had become strong, his heart was lifted up in pride, causing his destruction; and he did evil against the Lord his God; for he went into the Temple of the Lord for the purpose of burning perfumes on the altar of perfumes.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:17 @And Azariah the priest went in after him, with eighty of the Lord's priests, who were strong men;

bbe@2Chronicles:26:20 @And Azariah, the chief priest, and all the priests, looking at him, saw the mark of the leper on his brow, and they sent him out quickly and he himself went out straight away, for the Lord's punishment had come on him.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:22 @Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, were recorded by Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.

bbe@2Chronicles:26:23 @So Uzziah went to rest with his fathers; and they put his body into the earth in the field used for the resting-place of the kings, for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:2 @He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Uzziah had done; but he did not go into the Temple of the Lord. And the people still went on in their evil ways.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:4 @In addition, he made towns in the hill-country of Judah, and strong buildings and towers in the woodlands.

bbe@2Chronicles:27:5 @He went to war with the king of the children of Ammon and overcame them. That year, the children of Ammon gave him a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of grain and ten thousand measures of barley.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:2 @But he went in the ways of the kings of Israel and made images of metal for the Baals.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:6 @For Pekah, the son of Remaliah, in one day put to death a hundred and twenty thousand men of Judah, all of them good fighting-men; because they had given up the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:9 @But a prophet of the Lord was there, named Oded; and he went out in front of the army which was coming into Samaria and said to them, Truly, because the Lord, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he gave them up into your hands, and you have put them to death in an outburst of wrath stretching up to heaven.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:15 @And those men who have been named went up and took the prisoners, clothing those among them who were uncovered, with things from the goods which had been taken in the war, and putting robes on them and shoes on their feet; and they gave them food and drink and oil for their bodies, and seating all the feeble among them on asses, they took them to Jericho, the town of palm-trees, to their people, and then went back to Samaria

bbe@2Chronicles:28:18 @And the Philistines, forcing their way into the towns of the lowlands and the south of Judah, had taken Beth-shemesh and Aijalon and Gederoth and Soco, with their daughter-towns, as well as Timnah and Gimzo and their daughter-towns, and were living there.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:21 @For Ahaz took a part of the wealth from the house of the Lord, and from the house of the king and of the great men, and gave it to the king of Assyria; but it was no help to him.

bbe@2Chronicles:28:23 @For he made offerings to the gods of Damascus, who were attacking him, and said, Because the gods of the kings of Aram are giving them help, I will make offerings to them so that they may give me help. But they were the cause of his downfall, and of that of all Israel.

So all the people took in offerings and praise-offerings: and those whose hearts were moved, took in burned offerings.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:32 @The number of burned offerings which the people took in was seventy oxen, a hundred male sheep, and two hundred lambs: all these were for burned offerings to the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:33 @And the holy things were six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:34 @There were not enough priests for the work of cutting up all the burned offerings; so their brothers the Levites gave them help till the work was done and the priests had made themselves holy: for the Levites were more upright in heart to make themselves holy than the priests.

bbe@2Chronicles:29:36 @And Hezekiah and all the people were full of joy, because God had made the people ready: for the thing was done suddenly.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:5 @So it was ordered that word was to be sent out through all Israel, from Beer-sheba to Dan, that they were to come to keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel, at Jerusalem: because they had not kept it in great numbers in agreement with the law.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:6 @So runners went with letters from the king and his chiefs through all Israel and Judah, by the order of the king, saying, O children of Israel, come back again to the Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, so that he may come again to that small band of you which has been kept safe out of the hands of the kings of Assyria.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:7 @Do not be like your fathers and your brothers, who were sinners against the Lord, the God of their fathers, so that he made them a cause of fear, as you see.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:8 @Now do not be hard-hearted, as your fathers were; but give yourselves to the Lord, and come into his holy place, which he has made his for ever, and be the servants of the Lord your God, so that the heat of his wrath may be turned away from you.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:10 @So the runners went from town to town through all the country of Ephraim and Manasseh as far as Zebulun: but they were laughed at and made sport of.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:11 @However, some of Asher and Manasseh and Zebulun put away their pride and came to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:12 @And in Judah the power of God gave them one heart to do the orders of the king and the captains, which were taken as the word of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:15 @Then on the fourteenth day of the second month they put the Passover lambs to death: and the priests and the Levites were shamed, and made themselves holy and took burned offerings into the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:17 @For there were still a number of the people there who had not made themselves holy: so the Levites had to put Passover lambs to death for those who were not clean, to make them holy to the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:20 @And the Lord gave ear to Hezekiah, and made the people well.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:21 @So the children of Israel who were present in Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread for seven days with great joy: and the Levites and the priests gave praise to the Lord day by day, making melody to the Lord with loud instruments.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:22 @And Hezekiah said kind words to the Levites who were expert in the ordering of the worship of the Lord: so they kept the feast for seven days, offering peace-offerings and praising the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:23 @And by the desire of all the people, the feast went on for another seven days, and they kept the seven days with joy.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:25 @And all the people of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and those who had come from Israel, and men from other lands who had come from Israel or who were living in Judah, were glad with great joy.

bbe@2Chronicles:30:27 @Then the priests and the Levites gave the people a blessing: and the voice of their prayer went up to the holy place of God in heaven.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:1 @Now when all this was over, all the men of Israel who were present went out into the towns of Judah, causing the stone pillars to be broken up and the wood pillars to be cut down, pulling down the high places and the altars in all Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, till all were gone. Then all the children of Israel went back to their towns, every man to his property.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:6 @And the children of Israel and Judah, who were living in the towns of Judah came with the tenth part of their oxen and sheep, and a tenth of all the holy things which were to be given to the Lord their God, and put them in great masses.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:7 @The first store of things was put down in the third month, and in the seventh month the masses were complete.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:10 @And Azariah, the chief priest, of the family of Zadok, said in answer, From the time when the people first came with their offerings into the house of the Lord, we have had food enough, and more than enough: for the blessing of the Lord is on his people; and there is this great store which has not been used.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:11 @Then Hezekiah said that store-rooms were to be made ready in the house of the Lord; and this was done.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:13 @And Jehiel and Azaziah and Nahath and Asahel and Jerimoth and Jozabad and Eliel and Ismachiah and Mahath and Benaiah were overseers, under the directions of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the order of Hezekiah the king and Azariah, the ruler of the house of God.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:15 @And under him were Eden and Miniamin and Jeshua and Shemaiah and Amariah and Shecaniah, in the towns of the priests, who were made responsible for giving it to all their brothers, by divisions, to small and great:

bbe@2Chronicles:31:16 @As well as to all the males, of three years old and over, listed by their families, who went into the house of the Lord to do what was needed day by day, for their special work with their divisions.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:17 @And the families of the priests were listed by their fathers' names, but the Levites, of twenty years old and over, were listed in relation to their work in their divisions;

bbe@2Chronicles:31:18 @And in the lists were all their little ones and their wives and their sons and daughters, through all the people: they made themselves holy in the positions which they were given.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:19 @And as for the sons of Aaron, the priests, living in the country on the outskirts of their towns, every different town there were men, marked out by name, to give their part of the goods to all the males among the priests, and to all who were listed among the Levites.

bbe@2Chronicles:31:21 @And for everything he undertook, in connection with the work of the house of God and his law and orders, he got directions from God and did it with serious purpose; and things went well for him

bbe@2Chronicles:32:5 @Then he took heart, building up the wall where it was broken down, and making its towers higher, and building another wall outside; and he made strong the Millo in the town of David, and got together a great store of all sorts of instruments of war.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:8 @With him is an arm of flesh; but we have the Lord our God, helping us and fighting for us. And the people put their faith in what Hezekiah, king of Judah, said.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:13 @Have you no knowledge of what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of every land? were the gods of the nations of those lands able to keep their land from falling into my hands?

bbe@2Chronicles:32:18 @These things they said, crying out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, with the purpose of troubling them and putting fear into them, so that they might take the town;

bbe@2Chronicles:32:21 @And the Lord sent an angel who put to death all the men of war and the chiefs and the captains in the army of the king of Assyria. So he went back to his country in shame. And when he came into the house of his god, his sons, the offspring of his body, put him to death there with the sword.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:22 @So the Lord gave Hezekiah and the people of Jerusalem salvation from the power of Sennacherib, the king of Assyria, and from all others, giving them rest on every side.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:24 @In those days Hezekiah was ill and near death; and he made prayer to the Lord, and the Lord in answer gave him a sign.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:27 @And Hezekiah had very great wealth and honour; and he made himself store-houses for his gold and silver and jewels and spices, and for body-covers and all sorts of beautiful vessels.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:29 @And he made towns for himself, and got together much property in flocks and herds: for God had given him great wealth.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:30 @It was Hezekiah who had the higher spring of the water of Gihon stopped, and the water taken down on the west side of the town of David. In everything he undertook, Hezekiah did well.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:31 @However, in the business of the representatives sent by the rulers of Babylon to get news of the wonder which had taken place in the land, God gave up guiding him, testing him to see what was in his heart.

bbe@2Chronicles:32:33 @So Hezekiah went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body into the higher part of the resting-places of the sons of David: and all Judah and the people of Jerusalem gave him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:1 @Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he was ruling for fifty-five years in Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:6 @More than this, he made his children go through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he made use of secret arts, and signs for reading the future, and unnatural powers, and gave positions to those who had control of spirits and to wonder-workers: he did much evil in the eyes of the Lord, moving him to wrath.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:13 @And made prayer to him; and in answer to his prayer God let him come back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh was certain that the Lord was God.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:14 @After this he made an outer wall for the town of David, on the west side of Gihon in the valley, as far as the way into the town by the fish doorway; and he put a very high wall round the Ophel; and he put captains of the army in all the walled towns of Judah.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:16 @And he put the altar of the Lord in order, offering peace-offerings and praise-offerings on it, and said that all Judah were to be servants of the Lord, the God of Israel.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:17 @However, the people still made offerings in the high places, but only to the Lord their God.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:19 @And the prayer which he made to God, and how God gave him an answer, and all his sin and his wrongdoing, and the places where he made high places and put up pillars of wood and images, before he put away his pride, are recorded in the history of the seers.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:20 @So Manasseh went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body to rest in his house, and Amon his son became king in his place.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:21 @Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king; and he was ruling for two years in Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:33:23 @He did not make himself low before the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done, but went on sinning more and more.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:3 @In the eighth year of his rule, while he was still young, his heart was first turned to the God of his father David; and in the twelfth year he undertook the clearing away of all the high places and the pillars and the images of wood and metal from Judah and Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:4 @He had the altars of the Baals broken down, while he himself was present; and the sun-images which were placed on high over them he had cut down; and the pillars of wood and the metal images he had broken up and crushed to dust, dropping the dust over the resting-places of the dead who had made offerings to them.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:7 @He had the altars and the pillars of wood pulled down and the images crushed to dust, and all the sun-images cut down, through all the land of Israel, and then he went back to Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:12 @And the men did the work well; and those who had authority over them were Jahath and Obadiah, Levites of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, who were to be responsible for seeing that the work was done; and others of the Levites, who were expert with instruments of music,

bbe@2Chronicles:34:13 @Had authority over the transport workers, giving directions to all who were doing any sort of work; and among the Levites there were scribes and overseers and door-keepers.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:14 @Now when they were taking out the money which had come into the Lord's house, Hilkiah the priest came across the book of the law of the Lord, which he had given by the mouth of Moses.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:22 @So Hilkiah, and those whom the king sent, went to Huldah the woman prophet, the wife of Shallum, the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, the keeper of the robes (now she was living in Jerusalem, in the second part of the town); and they had talk with her about this thing.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:27 @And your heart was soft, and you made yourself low before God, on hearing his words about this place and its people, and with weeping and signs of grief have made yourself low before me, I have given ear to you, says the Lord God.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:30 @And the king went up to the house of the Lord, with all the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, and the priests and the Levites and all the people, small and great; and they were present at his reading of the book of the law which had come to light in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Chronicles:34:33 @Josiah took away all the disgusting things out of all the lands of the children of Israel, and made all who were in Israel servants of the Lord their God. And as long as he was living they were true to the Lord, the God of their fathers.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:3 @And he said to the Levites, the teachers of all Israel, who were holy to the Lord, See, the holy ark is in the house which Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel, made; it will no longer have to be transported on your backs: now be the servants of the Lord your God and his people Israel,

bbe@2Chronicles:35:7 @And Josiah gave lambs and goats from the flock as Passover offerings for all the people who were present, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand oxen: these were from the king's private property.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:13 @And the Passover lamb was cooked over the fire, as it says in the law; and the holy offerings were cooked in pots and basins and vessels, and taken quickly to all the people.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:14 @And after that, they made ready for themselves and for the priests; for the priests, the sons of Aaron, were offering the burned offerings and the fat till night; so the Levites made ready what was needed for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:15 @And the sons of Asaph, the makers of melody, were in their places, as ordered by David and Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the king's seer; and the door-keepers were stationed at every door: there was no need for them to go away from their places, for their brothers the Levites made ready for them.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:17 @And all the children of Israel who were present kept the Passover and the feast of unleavened bread at that time for seven days.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:18 @No Passover like it had been kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; and not one of the kings of Israel had ever kept a Passover like the one kept by Josiah and the priests and the Levites and all those of Judah and Israel who were present, and the people of Jerusalem.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:20 @After all this, and after Josiah had put the house in order, Neco, king of Egypt, went up to make war at Carchemish by the river Euphrates; and Josiah went out against him.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:22 @However, Josiah would not go back; but keeping to his purpose of fighting against him, and giving no attention to the words of Neco, which came from God, he went forward to the fight in the valley of Megiddo.

bbe@2Chronicles:35:24 @So his servants took him out of the line of war-carriages, and put him in his second carriage and took him to Jerusalem, where he came to his end, and they put his body in the resting-place of his fathers. And in all Judah and Jerusalem there was great weeping for Josiah.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:2 @Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:5 @Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for eleven years, and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord his God.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:11 @Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for eleven years.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:18 @And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the stored wealth of the Lord's house and the wealth of the king and his chiefs, he took away to Babylon.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:19 @And the house of God was burned and the wall of Jerusalem broken down; all its great houses were burned with fire and all its beautiful vessels given up to destruction.

bbe@2Chronicles:36:20 @And all who had not come to death by the sword he took away prisoners to Babylon; and they became servants to him and to his sons till the kingdom of Persia came to power:

bbe@2Chronicles:36:21 @So that the words of the Lord, which he said by the mouth of Jeremiah, might come true, till the land had had pleasure in her Sabbaths; for as long as she was waste the land kept the Sabbath, till seventy years were complete.

bbe@Ezra:1:5 @Then the heads of families of Judah and Benjamin, with the priests and the Levites, got ready, even all those whose spirits were moved by God to go up and take in hand the building of the Lord's house in Jerusalem.

bbe@Ezra:1:8 @Even these Cyrus made Mithredath, the keeper of his wealth, get out, and he gave them, after numbering them, to Sheshbazzar, the ruler of Judah.

bbe@Ezra:1:9 @And this is the number of them: there were thirty gold plates, a thousand silver plates, twenty-nine knives,

bbe@Ezra:1:11 @There were five thousand, four hundred gold and silver vessels. All these were taken back by Sheshbazzar, when those who had been taken prisoner went up from Babylon to Jerusalem.

bbe@Ezra:2:58 @All the Nethinim, and the children of Solomon's servants, were three hundred and ninety-two.

bbe@Ezra:2:59 @And these were the people who went up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer. But having no knowledge of their fathers' families or offspring, it was not certain that they were Israelites;

bbe@Ezra:2:62 @They made search for their record among the lists of families, but their names were nowhere to be seen; so they were looked on as unclean and no longer priests.

bbe@Ezra:2:63 @And the Tirshatha said that they were not to have the most holy things for their food, till a priest came to give decision by Urim and Thummim.

bbe@Ezra:2:65 @As well as their men-servants and their women-servants, of whom there were seven thousand, three hundred and thirty-seven: and they had two hundred men and women to make music.

bbe@Ezra:2:68 @And some of the heads of families, when they came to the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem, gave freely of their wealth for the building up of the house of God in its place:

bbe@Ezra:3:8 @Now in the second year of their coming into the house of God in Jerusalem, in the second month, the work was taken in hand by Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all those who had come from the land where they were prisoners to Jerusalem: and they made the Levites, of twenty years old and over, responsible for overseeing the work of the house of the Lord.

bbe@Ezra:3:11 @And they gave praise to the Lord, answering one another in their songs and saying, For he is good, for his mercy to Israel is eternal. And all the people gave a great cry of joy, when they gave praise to the Lord, because the base of the Lord's house was put in place.

bbe@Ezra:3:12 @But a number of the priests and Levites and the heads of families, old men who had seen the first house, when the base of this house was put down before their eyes, were overcome with weeping; and a number were crying out with joy:

bbe@Ezra:3:13 @So that in the ears of the people the cry of joy was mixed with the sound of weeping; for the cries of the people were loud and came to the ears of those who were a long way off.

bbe@Ezra:4:1 @Now news came to the haters of Judah and Benjamin that the people who had come back were building a Temple to the Lord, the God of Israel;

bbe@Ezra:4:2 @Then they came to Zerubbabel and to the heads of families, and said to them, Let us take part in the building with you; for we are servants of your God, even as you are; and we have been making offerings to him from the days of Esar-haddon, king of Assyria, who put us here.

bbe@Ezra:4:3 @But Zerubbabel and Jeshua and the rest of the heads of families in Israel said to them, You have no part with us in the building of a house for our God; we ourselves will do the work together for the Lord, the God of Israel, as Cyrus, king of Persia, has given us orders.

bbe@Ezra:4:12 @We give news to the king that the Jews who came from you have come to us at Jerusalem; they are building up again that uncontrolled and evil town; the walls are complete and they are joining up the bases.

bbe@Ezra:4:14 @Now because we are responsible to the king, and it is not right for us to see the king's honour damaged, we have sent to give the king word of these things,

bbe@Ezra:4:15 @So that search may be made in the book of the records of your fathers: and you will see in the book of the records that this town has been uncontrolled, and a cause of trouble to kings and countries, and that there were outbursts against authority there in the past: for which reason the town was made waste.

bbe@Ezra:4:16 @We give you word, that if the building of this town and its walls is made complete, there will be an end of your power in the country across the river.

bbe@Ezra:4:17 @Then the king sent an answer to Rehum, the chief ruler, and Shimshai the scribe, and their friends living in Samaria, and to the rest of those across the river, saying, Peace to you:

bbe@Ezra:4:23 @Then, after reading the king's letter, Rehum and Shimshai the scribe and their friends went quickly to Jerusalem, to the Jews, and had them stopped by force.

bbe@Ezra:5:1 @Now the prophets Haggai and Zechariah, the son of Iddo, were preaching to the Jews in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel.

bbe@Ezra:5:2 @Then Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, got up and made a start at building the house of God at Jerusalem: and the prophets of God were with them, helping them.

bbe@Ezra:5:5 @But the eye of their God was on the chiefs of the Jews, and they did not make them give up working till the question had been put before Darius and an answer had come by letter about it.

bbe@Ezra:5:8 @This is to give the king word that we went into the land of Judah, to the house of the great God, which is made of great stones, and has its walls supported with wood, and the work is going on with industry, and they are doing it well.

bbe@Ezra:5:9 @Then we said to the men responsible, who gave you authority for the building of this house and these walls?

bbe@Ezra:5:10 @And we made request for their names, so that we might send you word, and give you the names of the men at the head of them.

bbe@Ezra:5:11 @And they made answer to us, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we are building the house which was put up in times long past and was designed and made complete by a great king of Israel.

bbe@Ezra:6:1 @Then Darius the king gave an order and a search was made in the house of the records, where the things of value were stored up in Babylon.

bbe@Ezra:6:8 @Further, I give orders as to what you are to do for the responsible men of the Jews in connection with the building of this house of God: that from the king's wealth, that is, from the taxes got together in the land over the river, the money needed is to be given to these men readily, so that their work may not be stopped.

bbe@Ezra:6:10 @So that they may make offerings of a sweet smell to the God of heaven, with prayers for the life of the king and of his sons.

bbe@Ezra:6:14 @And the responsible men of the Jews went on with their building, and did well, helped by the teaching of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah, the son of Iddo

bbe@Ezra:6:17 @And they gave as offerings at the opening of this house of God a hundred oxen, two hundred sheep, four hundred lambs; and for a sin-offering for all Israel, twelve he-goats, being the number of the tribes of Israel.

bbe@Ezra:6:20 @For the priests and the Levites had made themselves clean together; they were all clean: and they put the Passover lamb to death for all those who had come back, and for their brothers the priests and for themselves.

bbe@Ezra:6:21 @And the children of Israel, who had come back, and all those who were joined to them, after separating themselves from the evil ways of the people of the land to become the servants of the Lord, the God of Israel, took food together,

bbe@Ezra:8:21 @Then I gave orders for a time of going without food, there by the river Ahava, so that we might make ourselves low before our God in prayer, requesting from him a straight way for us and for our little ones and for all our substance.

bbe@Ezra:8:22 @For I would not, for shame, make request to the king for a band of armed men and horsemen to give us help against those who might make attacks on us on the way: for we had said to the king, The hand of our God is on his servants for good, but his power and his wrath are against all those who are turned away from him.

bbe@Ezra:8:23 @So we went without food, requesting our God for this: and his ear was open to our prayer.

bbe@Ezra:8:24 @So I put on one side twelve of the chiefs of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them,

bbe@Ezra:8:25 @And gave to them by weight the silver and the gold and the vessels, all the offering for the house of our God which the king and his wise men and his captains and all Israel there present had given:

bbe@Ezra:8:26 @Measuring into their hands six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels, a hundred talents' weight, and a hundred talents of gold,

bbe@Ezra:8:27 @And twenty gold basins, of a thousand darics, and two vessels of the best bright brass, equal in value to gold.

bbe@Ezra:8:30 @So the priests and the Levites took the weight of silver and gold and the vessels, to take them to Jerusalem into the house of our God.

bbe@Ezra:8:31 @Then we went away from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem; and the hand of our God was on us, and he gave us salvation from our haters and those who were waiting to make an attack on us by the way.

bbe@Ezra:8:32 @And we came to Jerusalem and were there for three days.

bbe@Ezra:8:33 @And on the fourth day, the silver and the gold and the vessels were measured out by weight in the house of our God into the hands of Meremoth, the son of Uriah, the priest; and with him was Eleazar, the son of Phinehas; and with them were Jozabad, the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah, the son of Binnui, the Levites;

bbe@Ezra:8:34 @All was handed over by number and by weight: and the weight was put on record at that time.

bbe@Ezra:8:35 @And those who had been prisoners, who had come back from a strange land, made burned offerings to the God of Israel, twelve oxen for all Israel, ninety-six male sheep, seventy-seven lambs, twelve he-goats for a sin-offering: all this was a burned offering to the Lord.

bbe@Ezra:9:1 @Now after these things were done, the captains came to me and said, The people of Israel and the priests and Levites have not kept themselves separate from the people of the lands, but have taken part in the disgusting ways of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.

bbe@Ezra:9:4 @Then everyone who went in fear of the words of the God of Israel, because of the sin of those who had come back, came together to me; and I kept where I was, overcome with grief, till the evening offering.

bbe@Ezra:9:7 @From the days of our fathers till this day we have been great sinners; and for our sins, we and our kings and our priests have been given up into the hands of the kings of the lands, to the sword and to prison and to loss of goods and to shame of face, as it is this day.

bbe@Ezra:9:9 @For we are servants; but our God has not been turned away from us in our prison, but has had mercy on us before the eyes of the kings of Persia, to give us new strength to put up again the house of our God and to make fair its waste places, and to give us a wall in Judah and Jerusalem.

bbe@Ezra:9:10 @And now, O our God, what are we to say after this? for we have not kept your laws,

bbe@Ezra:9:12 @So now do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons or do anything for their peace or well-being for ever; so that you may be strong, living on the good of the land, and handing it on to your children for a heritage for ever.

bbe@Ezra:9:14 @Are we again to go against your orders, taking wives from among the people who do these disgusting things? would you not be angry with us till our destruction was complete, till there was not one who got away safe?

bbe@Ezra:9:15 @O Lord God of Israel, righteousness is yours; we are only a small band which has been kept from death, as at this day: see, we are before you in our sin; for no one may keep his place before you because of this.

bbe@Ezra:10:1 @Now while Ezra was making his prayer and his statement of wrongdoing, weeping and falling down before the house of God, a very great number of men and women and children out of Israel came together round him: for the people were weeping bitterly.

bbe@Ezra:10:2 @And Shecaniah, the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answering, said to Ezra, We have done evil against our God, and have taken as our wives strange women of the peoples of the land: but still there is hope for Israel in this question.

bbe@Ezra:10:4 @Up, now! for this is your business, and we are with you; take heart and do it.

bbe@Ezra:10:6 @Then Ezra got up from before the house of God and went into the room of Jehohanan, the son of Eliashib; but when he came there, he took no food or drink, for he was sorrowing for the sin of those who had come back.

bbe@Ezra:10:7 @And they made a public statement through all Judah and Jerusalem, to all those who had come back, that they were to come together to Jerusalem;

bbe@Ezra:10:8 @And that if anyone did not come before three days were past, as ordered by the rulers and the responsible men, all his goods would be put under the curse, and he himself would be cut off from the meeting of the people who had come back.

bbe@Ezra:10:9 @Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin came together to Jerusalem before three days were past; it was the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month; and all the people were seated in the wide square in front of the house of God, shaking with fear because of this business and because of the great rain

bbe@Ezra:10:12 @Then all the people, answering, said with a loud voice, As you have said, so it is right for us to do.

bbe@Ezra:10:15 @Only Jonathan, the son of Asahel, and Jahzeiah, the son of Tikvah, were against this, Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite supporting them.

bbe@Ezra:10:16 @So those who had come back did so. And Ezra the priest, with certain heads of families, by their fathers' families, all of them by their names, were marked out; and on the first day of the tenth month they took their places to go into the question with care.

bbe@Ezra:10:17 @And they got to the end of all the men who were married to strange women by the first day of the first month.

bbe@Ezra:10:18 @And among the sons of the priests who were married to strange women were these: of the sons of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak and his brothers, Maaseiah and Eliezer and Jarib and Gedaliah.

bbe@Nehemiah:1:1 @The history of Nehemiah, the son of Hacaliah. Now it came about, in the month Chislev, in the twentieth year, when I was in Shushan, the king's town,

bbe@Nehemiah:1:2 @That Hanani, one of my brothers, came with certain men from Judah; and in answer to my request for news of the Jews who had been prisoners and had got away, and of Jerusalem,

bbe@Nehemiah:1:4 @Then, after hearing these words, for some days I gave myself up to weeping and sorrow, seated on the earth; and taking no food I made prayer to the God of heaven,

bbe@Nehemiah:1:6 @Let your ear now take note and let your eyes be open, so that you may give ear to the prayer of your servant, which I make before you at this time, day and night, for the children of Israel, your servants, while I put before you the sins of the children of Israel, which we have done against you: truly, I and my father's people are sinners.

bbe@Nehemiah:1:7 @We have done great wrong against you, and have not kept the orders, the rules, and the decisions, which you gave to your servant Moses.

bbe@Nehemiah:1:10 @Now these are your servants and your people, whom you have made yours by your great power and by your strong hand.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:1 @And it came about in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, when wine was before him, that I took up the wine and gave it to the king. Now I had never before been sad when the king was present.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:8 @And a letter to Asaph, the keeper of the king's park, so that he may give me wood to make boards for the doors of the tower of the house, and for the wall of the town, and for the house which is to be mine. And the king gave me this, for the hand of my God was on me.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:10 @And Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, hearing of it, were greatly troubled because a man had come to the help of the children of Israel.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:13 @And I went out by night, through the doorway of the valley, and past the dragon's water-spring as far as the place where waste material was put, viewing the walls of Jerusalem which were broken down, and the doorways which had been burned with fire.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:14 @Then I went on to the door of the fountain and to the king's pool: but there was no room for my beast to get through.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:15 @Then in the night, I went up by the stream, viewing the wall; then turning back, I went in by the door in the valley, and so came back.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:16 @And the chiefs had no knowledge of where I had been or what I was doing; and I had not then said anything to the Jews or to the priests or the great ones or the chiefs or the rest of those who were doing the work.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:17 @Then I said to them, You see what a bad condition we are in; how Jerusalem is a waste, and its doorways burned with fire: come, let us get to work, building up the wall of Jerusalem, so that we may no longer be put to shame.

bbe@Nehemiah:2:20 @Then answering them I said, The God of heaven, he will be our help; so we his servants will go on with our building: but you have no part or right or any name in Jerusalem.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:1 @Then Eliashib, the chief priest, got up with his brothers the priests, and took in hand the building of the sheep doorway; they made it holy and put its doors in position; as far as the tower of Hammeah they made it holy, even to the tower of Hananel.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:2 @And by his side the men of Jericho were building. And after them, Zaccur, the son of Imri.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:3 @The sons of Hassenaah were the builders of the fish doorway; they put its boards in place and put up its doors, with their locks and rods.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:5 @Near them, the Tekoites were at work; but their chiefs did not put their necks to the work of their Lord.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:7 @By their side were working Melatiah the Gibeonite and Jadon the Meronothite, the men of Gibeon and of Mizpah from the seat of the ruler across the river.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:11 @Malchijah, the son of Harim, and Hasshub, the son of Pahath-moab, were working on another part, and the tower of the ovens.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:13 @Hanun and the people of Zanoah were working on the doorway of the valley; they put it up and put up its doors, with their locks and rods, and a thousand cubits of wall as far as the doorway where the waste material was placed.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:18 @After him were working their brothers, Bavvai, the son of Henadad, ruler of half the division of Keilah.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:22 @After him were working the priests, the men of the lowland.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:25 @Palal, the son of Uzai, made good the wall opposite the angle and the tower which comes out from the higher part of the king's house, by the open space of the watch. After him was Pedaiah, the son of Parosh.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:26 @(Now the Nethinim were living in the Ophel, as far as the place facing the water doorway to the east, and the tower which comes out.)

bbe@Nehemiah:3:27 @After him the Tekoites were making good another part, opposite the great tower which comes out, and up to the wall of the Ophel.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:28 @Further on, past the horse doorway, the priests were at work, every one opposite his house.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:30 @After him Hananiah, the son of Shelemiah, and Hanun, the sixth son of Zalaph, were making good another part. After him Meshullam, the son of Berechiah, made good the wall opposite his room.

bbe@Nehemiah:3:32 @And between the way up to the angle and the sheep door, the gold-workers and the traders made good the wall.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:1 @Now, Sanballat, hearing that we were building the wall, was very angry, and in his wrath made sport of the Jews.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:4 @Give ear, O our God, for we are looked down on: let their words of shame be turned back on themselves, and let them be given up to wasting in a land where they are prisoners:

bbe@Nehemiah:4:6 @So we went on building the wall; and all the wall was joined together half-way up: for the people were working hard.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:7 @But when it came to the ears of Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabians and the Ammonites and the Ashdodites, that the building of the walls of Jerusalem was going forward and the broken places were being made good, they were full of wrath;

bbe@Nehemiah:4:9 @But we made our prayer to God, and had men on watch against them day and night because of them.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:11 @And those who were against us said, Without their knowledge and without their seeing us, we will come among them and put them to death, causing the work to come to a stop.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:12 @And it came about that when the Jews who were living near them came, they said to us ten times, From all directions they are coming against us.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:13 @So in the lowest part of the space at the back of the walls, in the open places, I put the people by families, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:15 @And when it came to the ears of those who were against us, that we had knowledge of their designs and that God had made their purpose come to nothing, we all went back to the wall, everyone to his work

bbe@Nehemiah:4:16 @And from that time, half of my servants were doing their part of the work, and half kept the spears and body-covers and the bows and the metal war-dresses; and the chiefs were at the back of the men of Judah.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:17 @Those who were building the wall and those who were moving material did their part, everyone working with one hand, with his spear in the other;

bbe@Nehemiah:4:19 @And I said to the great ones and the chiefs and the rest of the people, The work is great and widely spaced and we are far away from one another on the wall:

bbe@Nehemiah:4:21 @So we went on with the work: and half of them had spears in their hands from the dawn of the morning till the stars were seen.

bbe@Nehemiah:4:23 @So not one of us, I or my brothers or my servants or the watchmen who were with me, took off his clothing, everyone went armed to the water.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:2 @For there were some who said, We, our sons and our daughters, are a great number: let us get grain, so that we may have food for our needs.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:3 @And there were some who said, We are giving our fields and our vine-gardens and our houses for debt: let us get grain because we are in need.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:4 @And there were others who said, We have given up our fields and our vine-gardens to get money for the king's taxes.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:5 @But our flesh is the same as the flesh of our countrymen, and our children as their children: and now we are giving our sons and daughters into the hands of others, to be their servants, and some of our daughters are servants even now: and we have no power to put a stop to it; for other men have our fields and our vine-gardens.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:8 @And I said to them, We have given whatever we were able to give, to make our brothers the Jews free, who were servants and prisoners of the nations: and would you now give up your brothers for a price, and are they to become our property? Then they said nothing, answering not a word.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:10 @Even I and my servants have been taking interest for the money and the grain we have let them have. So now, let us give up this thing.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:11 @Give back to them this very day their fields, their vine-gardens, their olive-gardens, and their houses, as well as a hundredth part of the money and the grain and the wine and the oil which you have taken from them.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:12 @Then they said, We will give them back, and take nothing for them; we will do as you say

bbe@Nehemiah:5:14 @Now from the time when I was made ruler of the people in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year till the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes the king, for twelve years, I and my servants have never taken the food which was the right of the ruler.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:15 @But earlier rulers who were before me made the people responsible for their upkeep, and took from them bread and wine at the rate of forty shekels of silver; and even their servants were lords over the people: but I did not do so, because of the fear of God.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:16 @And I kept on with the work of this wall, and we got no land for ourselves: and all my servants were helping with the work.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:17 @And more than this, a hundred and fifty of the Jews and the rulers were guests at my table, in addition to those who came to us from the nations round about us.

bbe@Nehemiah:5:18 @Now the food made ready for one day was one ox and six fat sheep, as well as fowls; and once in ten days a store of all sorts of wine: but all the same, I did not take the food to which the ruler had a right, because the people were crushed under a hard yoke.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:1 @Now when word was given to Sanballat and Tobiah and to Geshem the Arabian and to the rest of our haters, that I had done the building of the wall and that there were no more broken places in it (though even then I had not put up the doors in the doorways);

bbe@Nehemiah:6:4 @And four times they sent to me in this way, and I sent them the same answer.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:6 @And in it these words were recorded: It is said among the nations, and Geshem says so, that you and the Jews are hoping to make yourselves free from the king's authority; and that this is why you are building the wall: and they say that it is your purpose to be their king;

bbe@Nehemiah:6:9 @For they were hoping to put fear in us, saying, Their hands will become feeble and give up the work so that it may not get done. But now, O God, make my hands strong.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:10 @And I went to the house of Shemaiah, the son of Delaiah, the son of Mehetabel, who was shut up; and he said, Let us have a meeting in the house of God, inside the Temple, and let the doors be shut: for they will come to put you to death; truly, in the night they will come to put you to death.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:15 @So the wall was complete on the twenty-fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty-two days.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:16 @And when our haters had news of this, all the nations round about us were full of fear and were greatly shamed, for they saw that this work had been done by our God.

bbe@Nehemiah:6:18 @For in Judah there were a number of people who had made an agreement by oath with him, because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah, the son of Arah; and his son Jehohanan had taken as his wife the daughter of Meshullam, the son of Berechiah.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:2 @I made my brother Hanani, and Hananiah, the ruler of the tower, responsible for the government of Jerusalem: for he was a man of good faith, fearing God more than most.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:4 @Now the town was wide and great: but the people in it were only a small number, and the houses had not been put up.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:6 @These are the people of the divisions of the kingdom, among those who had been made prisoners by Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and taken away by him, who went back to Jerusalem and Judah, every one to his town;

bbe@Nehemiah:7:16 @The children of Bebai, six hundred and twenty-eight

bbe@Nehemiah:7:17 @The children of Azgad, two thousand, three hundred and twenty-two.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:22 @The children of Hashum, three hundred and twenty-eight.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:23 @The children of Bezai, three hundred and twenty-four.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:24 @The children of Hariph, a hundred and twelve.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:27 @The men of Anathoth, a hundred and twenty-eight.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:30 @The men of Ramah and Geba, six hundred and twenty-one.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:31 @The men of Michmas, a hundred and twenty-two.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:32 @The men of Beth-el and Ai, a hundred and twenty-three.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:35 @The children of Harim, three hundred and twenty.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:37 @The children of Lod, Hadid, and Ono, seven hundred and twenty-one.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:60 @All the Nethinim and the children of Solomon's servants were three hundred and ninety-two.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:61 @All these were the people who went up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but because they had no knowledge of their fathers' families or offspring, it was not certain if they were Israelites:

bbe@Nehemiah:7:64 @They made search for their record among the lists of families, but their names were nowhere to be seen, so they were looked on as unclean and no longer priests.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:65 @And the Tirshatha said that they were not to have the most holy things for their food, till a priest came to give decision by the Urim and Thummim.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:67 @As well as their men-servants and their women-servants, of whom there were seven thousand, three hundred and thirty-seven; and they had two hundred and forty-five men and women to make music.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:69 @Four hundred and thirty-five camels, six thousand, seven hundred and twenty asses.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:71 @And some of the heads of families gave into the store for the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand, two hundred pounds of silver.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:72 @And that which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand pounds of silver, and sixty-seven priests' robes.

bbe@Nehemiah:7:73 @So the priests and the Levites and the door-keepers and the music-makers and some of the people and the Nethinim, and all Israel, were living in their towns.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:1 @And when the seventh month came, the children of Israel were in their towns. And all the people came together like one man into the wide place in front of the water-doorway; and they made a request to Ezra the scribe that he would put before them the book of the law of Moses which the Lord had given to Israel.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:2 @And Ezra the priest put the law before the meeting of the people, before the men and women and all those who were able to take it in, on the first day of the seventh month.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:3 @He was reading it in the wide place in front of the water-doorway, from early morning till the middle of the day, in the hearing of all those men and women whose minds were able to take it in; and the ears of all the people were open to the book of the law.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:4 @And Ezra the scribe took his place on a tower of wood which they had made for the purpose; and by his side were placed Mattithiah and Shema and Anaiah and Uriah and Hilkiah and Maaseiah on the right; and on the left, Pedaiah and Mishael and Malchijah and Hashum and Hashbaddanah, Zechariah and Meshullam.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:6 @And Ezra gave praise to the Lord, the great God. And all the people in answer said, So be it, so be it; lifting up their hands; and with bent heads they gave worship to the Lord, going down on their faces to the earth.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:8 @And they gave out the words of the book the law of God, clearly, and gave the sense of it, so that their minds were able to take it in.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:9 @And Nehemiah, who was the Tirshatha, and Ezra, the priest and scribe, and the Levites who were the teachers of the people, said to all the people, This day is holy to the Lord your God; let there be no sorrow or weeping; for all the people were weeping on hearing the words of the law.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:10 @Then he said to them, Go away now, and take the fat for your food and the sweet for your drink, and send some to him for whom nothing is made ready: for this day is holy to our Lord: and let there be no grief in your hearts; for the joy of the Lord is your strong place.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:12 @And all the people went away to take food and drink, and to send food to others, and to be glad, because the words which were said to them had been made clear.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:14 @And they saw that it was recorded in the law that the Lord had given orders by Moses, that the children of Israel were to have tents for their living-places in the feast of the seventh month:

bbe@Nehemiah:8:15 @And that they were to give out an order, and make it public in all their towns and in Jerusalem, saying, Go out to the mountain and get olive branches and branches of field olives and of myrtle, and palm branches and branches of thick trees, to make tents, as it says in the book.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:16 @And the people went out and got them and made themselves tents, every one on the roof of his house, and in the open spaces and in the open squares of the house of God, and in the wide place of the water-doorway, and the wide place of the doorway of Ephraim.

bbe@Nehemiah:8:17 @All the people who had been prisoners and had come back, made tents and were living in them: for from the time of Jeshua, the son of Nun, till that day, the children of Israel had not done so. And there was very great joy.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:1 @Now on the twenty-fourth day of this month the children of Israel came together, taking no food and putting haircloth and dust on their bodies.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:3 @And for a fourth part of the day, upright in their places, they were reading from the book of the law of their God; and for a fourth part of the day they were requesting forgiveness and worshipping the Lord their God.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:10 @And you did signs and wonders on Pharaoh and all his servants and all the people of his land; for you saw how cruel they were to them. So you got yourself a name as it is today.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:11 @By you the sea was parted before them, so that they went through the sea on dry land; and those who went after them went down into the deep, like a stone into great waters.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:12 @And you went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night, to give them light on the way they were to go.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:15 @And you gave them bread from heaven when they were in need, and made water come out of the rock for their drink, and gave them orders to go in and take for their heritage the land which your hand had been lifted up to give them.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:19 @Even then, in your great mercy, you did not give them up in the waste land: the pillar of cloud still went before them by day, guiding them on their way, and the pillar of fire by night, to give them light, and make clear the way they were to go.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:21 @Truly, for forty years you were their support in the waste land, and they were in need of nothing; their clothing did not get old or their feet become tired.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:23 @And you made their children as great in number as the stars of heaven, and took them into the land, of which you had said to their fathers that they were to go in and take it for themselves.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:24 @So the children went in and took the land, and you overcame before them the people of the land, the Canaanites, and gave them up into their hands, with their kings and the people of the land, so that they might do with them whatever it was their pleasure to do.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:25 @And they took walled towns and a fat land, and became the owners of houses full of all good things, water-holes cut in the rock, vine-gardens and olive-gardens and a wealth of fruit-trees: so they had food enough and became fat, and had joy in the good you gave them.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:26 @But they were hard-hearted, and went against your authority, turning their backs on your law, and putting to death your prophets, who gave witness against them with the purpose of turning them back again to you, and they did much to make you angry.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:27 @And so you gave them up into the hands of their haters who were cruel to them: and in the time of their trouble, when they made their prayer to you, you gave ear to them from heaven; and in your great mercy gave them saviours, who made them free from the hands of their haters.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:29 @And gave witness against them so that you might make them come back again to your law: but their hearts were lifted up, and they gave no attention to your orders and went against your decisions (which, if a man keeps them, will be life to him), and turning their backs on you, made their necks stiff and did not give ear.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:33 @But still, you have been in the right in everything which has come on us; you have been true to us, but we have done evil:

bbe@Nehemiah:9:36 @Now, today, we are servants, and as for the land which you gave to our fathers, so that the produce of it and the good might be theirs, see, we are servants in it:

bbe@Nehemiah:9:37 @And it gives much increase to the kings whom you have put over us because of our sins: and they have power over our bodies and over our cattle at their pleasure, and we are in great trouble.

bbe@Nehemiah:9:38 @And because of all this we are making an agreement in good faith, and putting it in writing; and our rulers, our Levites, and our priests are putting their names to it.

bbe@Nehemiah:10:1 @Now those who put down their names were Nehemiah the Tirshatha, the son of Hacaliah, and Zedekiah,

bbe@Nehemiah:10:8 @Maaziah, Bilgai, Shemaiah; these were the priests.

bbe@Nehemiah:10:29 @They were united with their brothers, their rulers, and put themselves under a curse and an oath, to keep their steps in the way of God's law, which was given by Moses, the servant of God, and to keep and do all the orders of the Lord, our Lord, and his decisions and his rules;

bbe@Nehemiah:10:30 @And that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the lands, or take their daughters for our sons;

bbe@Nehemiah:10:31 @And if the peoples of the lands come to do trade in goods or food on the Sabbath day, that we would do no trade with them on the Sabbath or on a holy day: and that in the seventh year we would take no payment from any debtor.

bbe@Nehemiah:10:32 @And we made rules for ourselves, taxing ourselves a third of a shekel every year for the upkeep of the house of our God;

bbe@Nehemiah:10:34 @And we, the priests and the Levites and the people, made selection, by the decision of the Lord, of those who were to take the wood offering into the house of God, by families at the regular times, year by year, to be burned on the altar of the Lord our God, as it is recorded in the law;

bbe@Nehemiah:10:36 @As well as the first of our sons and of our cattle, as it is recorded in the law, and the first lambs of our herds and of our flocks, which are to be taken to the house of our God, to the priests who are servants in the house of our God:

bbe@Nehemiah:10:37 @And that we would take the first of our rough meal, and our lifted offerings, and the fruit of every sort of tree, and wine and oil, to the priests, to the rooms of the house of our God; and the tenth of the produce of our land to the Levites; for they, the Levites, take a tenth in all the towns of our ploughed land.

bbe@Nehemiah:10:39 @For the children of Israel and the children of Levi are to take the lifted offering of the grain and wine and oil into the rooms where the vessels of the holy place are, together with the priests and the door-keepers and the makers of music: and we will not give up caring for the house of our God.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:1 @And the rulers of the people were living in Jerusalem: the rest of the people made selection, by the decision of chance, of one out of every ten to be living in Jerusalem, the holy town; the other nine to go to the other towns.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:2 @And the people gave a blessing to all the men who were freely offering to take up their places in Jerusalem.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:3 @Now these are the chiefs of the divisions of the country who were living in Jerusalem: but in the towns of Judah everyone was living on his heritage in the towns, that is, Israel, the priests, the Levites, the Nethinim, and the children of Solomon's servants.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:4 @And in Jerusalem there were living certain of the children of Judah and of Benjamin. Of the children of Judah: Athaiah, the son of Uzziah, the son of Zechariah, the son of Amariah, the son of Shephatiah, the son of Mahalalel, of the children of Perez;

bbe@Nehemiah:11:6 @All the sons of Perez living in Jerusalem were four hundred and sixty-eight men of good position.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:8 @And after him Gabbai, Sallai, nine hundred and twenty-eight.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:12 @And their brothers who did the work of the house, eight hundred and twenty-two; and Adaiah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Pelaliah, the son of Amzi, the son of Zechariah, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah,

bbe@Nehemiah:11:14 @And their brothers, men of war, a hundred and twenty-eight; and their overseer was Zabdiel, the son of Haggedolim.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:16 @And Shabbethai and Jozabad, of the chiefs of the Levites, who were responsible for the outside business of the house of God;

bbe@Nehemiah:11:18 @All the Levites in the holy town were two hundred and eighty-four.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:19 @In addition the door-keepers, Akkub, Talmon, and their brothers who kept watch at the doors, were a hundred and seventy-two.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:20 @And the rest of Israel, of the priests, the Levites, were in all the towns of Judah, every one in his heritage.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:21 @But the Nethinim were living in the Ophel; and Ziha and Gishpa were over the Nethinim.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:25 @And for the daughter-towns with their fields, some of the men of Judah were living in Kiriath-arba and its daughter-towns, and in Dibon and its daughter-towns, and in Jekabzeel and its daughter-towns,

bbe@Nehemiah:11:30 @Zanoah, Adullam and their daughter-towns, Lachish and its fields, Azekah and its daughter-towns. So they were living from Beer-sheba to the valley of Hinnom.

bbe@Nehemiah:11:31 @And the children of Benjamin were living from Geba, at Michmash and Aija, and at Beth-el and its daughter-towns,

bbe@Nehemiah:11:36 @And of the Levites, certain divisions in Judah were joined to Benjamin.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:1 @Now these are the priests and the Levites who went up with Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra,

bbe@Nehemiah:12:7 @Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chiefs of the priests and of their brothers in the days of Jeshua.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:9 @And Bakbukiah and Unno, their brothers, were opposite them in their watches.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:12 @And in the days of Joiakim there were priests, heads of families: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:22 @The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, were listed as heads of families; and the priests, when Darius the Persian was king.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:23 @The sons of Levi, heads of families, were recorded in the book of the histories, even till the days of Johanan, the son of Eliashib.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:25 @Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were door-keepers keeping the watch at the store-houses of the doors.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:26 @These were in the days of Joiakim, the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the ruler and of Ezra the priest, the scribe.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:31 @Then I made the rulers of Judah come up on the wall, and I put in position two great bands of them who gave praise, walking in ordered lines; one went to the right on the wall, in the direction of the doorway where the waste was put;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:32 @And after them went Hoshaiah and half of the rulers of Judah,

bbe@Nehemiah:12:37 @And by the doorway of the fountain and straight in front of them, they went up by the steps of the town of David, at the slope up of the wall, over the house of David, as far as the water-doorway to the east.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:38 @And the other band of those who gave praise went to the left, and I went after them with half the people, on the wall, over the tower of the ovens, as far as the wide wall;

bbe@Nehemiah:12:39 @And over the doorway of Ephraim and by the old door and the fish door and the tower of Hananel and the tower of Hammeah, as far as the sheep door: and at the doorway of the watchmen they came to a stop.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:43 @And on that day they made great offerings and were glad; for God had made them glad with great joy; and the women and the children were glad with them: so that the joy of Jerusalem came to the ears of those who were far off.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:44 @And on that day certain men were put over the rooms where the things which had been given were stored, for the lifted offerings and the first-fruits and the tenths, and to take into them the amounts, from the fields of every town, fixed by the law for the priests and the Levites: for Judah was glad on account of the priests and the Levites who were in their places.

bbe@Nehemiah:12:45 @And they kept the watch of their God, and were responsible for making things clean, and so did the music-makers and the door-keepers, as it was ordered by David and Solomon his son.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:5 @Had made ready for him a great room, where at one time they kept the meal offerings, the perfume, and the vessels and the tenths of the grain and wine and oil which were given by order to the Levites and the music-makers and the door-keepers, and the lifted offerings for the priests.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:6 @But all this time I was not at Jerusalem: for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes, king of Babylon, I went to the king; and after some days, I got the king to let me go,

bbe@Nehemiah:13:13 @And I made controllers over the store-houses, Shelemiah the priest and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and with them was Hanan, the son of Zaccur the son of Mattaniah: they were taken to be true men and their business was the distribution of these things to their brothers.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:15 @In those days, I saw in Judah some who were crushing grapes on the Sabbath, and getting in grain and putting it on asses; as well as wine and grapes and figs and all sorts of goods which they took into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day: and I gave witness against them on the day when they were marketing food

bbe@Nehemiah:13:16 @And there were men of Tyre there, who came with fish and all sorts of goods, trading with the children of Judah and in Jerusalem on the Sabbath.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:19 @And so, when the streets of Jerusalem were getting dark before the Sabbath, I gave orders for the doors to be shut and not to be open again till after the Sabbath: and I put some of my servants by the door so that nothing might be taken in on the Sabbath day.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:23 @And in those days I saw the Jews who were married to women of Ashdod and Ammon and Moab:

bbe@Nehemiah:13:24 @And their children were talking half in the language of Ashdod; they had no knowledge of the Jews' language, but made use of the language of the two peoples.

bbe@Nehemiah:13:27 @Are we then without protest to let you do all this great evil, sinning against our God by taking strange women for your wives?

bbe@Esther:1:1 @Now it came about in the days of Ahasuerus, (that Ahasuerus who was ruler of a hundred and twenty-seven divisions of the kingdom, from India as far as Ethiopia:)

bbe@Esther:1:3 @In the third year of his rule he gave a feast to all his captains and his servants; and the captains of the army of Persia and Media, the great men and the rulers of the divisions of his kingdom, were present before him;

bbe@Esther:1:4 @And for a long time, even a hundred and eighty days, he let them see all the wealth and the glory of his kingdom and the great power and honour which were his.

bbe@Esther:1:5 @And at the end of that time, the king gave a feast for all the people who were present in Shushan, the king's town, small as well as great, for seven days, in the outer square of the garden of the king's house.

bbe@Esther:1:6 @There were fair hangings of white and green and blue, fixed with cords of purple and the best linen to silver rings and pillars of polished stone: the seats were of gold and silver on a floor of red and white and yellow and black stone.

bbe@Esther:1:10 @On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was glad with wine, he gave orders to Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven unsexed servants who were waiting before Ahasuerus the king,

bbe@Esther:1:13 @And the king said to the wise men, who had knowledge of the times, (for this was the king's way with all who were expert in law and in the giving of decisions:

bbe@Esther:1:14 @And second only to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven rulers of Persia and Media, who were friends of the king, and had the first places in the kingdom:)

bbe@Esther:1:16 @And before the king and the captains, Memucan gave his answer: Vashti the queen has done wrong, not only to the king, but to all the captains and to all the peoples in all the divisions of the kingdom of King Ahasuerus;

bbe@Esther:1:20 @And when this order, given by the king, is made public through all his kingdom (for it is great), all the wives will give honour to their husbands, great as well as small.

bbe@Esther:2:1 @After these things, when the king's feelings were calmer, the thought of Vashti and what she had done and the order he had made against her, came back to his mind.

bbe@Esther:2:2 @Then the servants who were waiting on the king said to him, Let search be made for some fair young virgins for the king:

bbe@Esther:2:7 @And he had been a father to Hadassah, that is Esther, the daughter of his father's brother: for she had no father or mother, and she was very beautiful; and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai took her for his daughter.

bbe@Esther:2:9 @And he was pleased with the girl and was kind to her; and he quickly gave her what was needed for making her clean, and the things which were hers by right, and seven servant-girls who were to be hers from the king's house: and he had her and her servant-girls moved to the best place in the women's part of the house.

bbe@Esther:2:12 @Now every girl, when her turn came, had to go in to King Ahasuerus, after undergoing, for a space of twelve months, what was ordered by the law for the women (for this was the time necessary for making them clean, that is, six months with oil of myrrh and six months with sweet perfumes and such things as are needed for making women clean):

bbe@Esther:2:13 @And in this way the girl went in to the king; whatever she had a desire for was given to her to take with her from the women's house into the house of the king.

bbe@Esther:2:14 @In the evening she went, and on the day after she came back to the second house of the women, into the keeping of Shaashgaz, one of the king's unsexed servants who had the care of the king's wives: only if the king had delight in her and sent for her by name did she go in to him again.

bbe@Esther:2:18 @Then the king gave a great feast for all his captains and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he gave orders through all the divisions of his kingdom for a day of rest from work, and gave wealth from his store.

bbe@Esther:2:21 @In those days, while Mordecai was seated at the king's doorway, two of the king's servants, Bigthan and Teresh, keepers of the door, being angry, were looking for a chance to make an attack on King Ahasuerus.

bbe@Esther:2:23 @And when the thing had been looked into, it was seen to be true, and the two of them were put to death by hanging on a tree: and it was put down in the records before the king.

bbe@Esther:3:1 @After these things, by the order of the king, Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, was lifted up and given a position of honour and a higher place than all the other captains who were with him.

bbe@Esther:3:2 @And all the king's servants who were in the king's house went down to the earth before Haman and gave him honour: for so the king had given orders. But Mordecai did not go down before him or give him honour.

bbe@Esther:3:3 @Then the king's servants who were in the king's house said to Mordecai, Why do you go against the king's order?

bbe@Esther:3:6 @But it was not enough for him to make an attack on Mordecai only; for they had made clear to him who Mordecai's people were; so Haman made it his purpose to put an end to all the Jews, even Mordecai's people, through all the kingdom of Ahasuerus.

bbe@Esther:3:7 @In the first month, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, from day to day and from month to month they went on looking for a sign given by Pur (that is chance) before Haman, till the sign came out for the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month Adar.

bbe@Esther:3:12 @Then on the thirteenth day of the first month, the king's scribes were sent for, and they put in writing Haman's orders to all the king's captains and the rulers of every division of his kingdom and the chiefs of every people: for every division of the kingdom in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in the language which was theirs; it was signed in the name of King Ahasuerus and stamped with the king's ring.

bbe@Esther:3:13 @And letters were sent by the runners into every division of the kingdom ordering the death and destruction of all Jews, young and old, little children and women, on the same day, even the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month Adar, and the taking of all their goods by force.

bbe@Esther:3:15 @The runners went out quickly by the king's order, and a public statement was made in Shushan: and the king and Haman took wine together: but the town of Shushan was troubled.

bbe@Esther:4:1 @Now when Mordecai saw what was done, pulling off his robe, he put on haircloth, with dust on his head, and went out into the middle of the town, crying out with a loud and bitter cry.

bbe@Esther:4:3 @And in every part of the kingdom, wherever the king's word and his order came, there was great sorrow among the Jews, and weeping and crying and going without food; and numbers of them were stretched on the earth covered with dust and haircloth.

bbe@Esther:4:6 @So Hathach went out and saw Mordecai in the open square of the town before the king's doorway.

bbe@Esther:4:13 @Then Mordecai sent this answer back to Esther: Do not have the idea that you in the king's house will be safe from the fate of all the Jews.

bbe@Esther:4:15 @Then Esther sent them back to Mordecai with this answer:

bbe@Esther:4:17 @So Mordecai went away and did everything as Esther had said.

bbe@Esther:5:4 @And Esther in answer said, If it seems good to the king, let the king and Haman come today to the feast which I have made ready for him.

bbe@Esther:5:6 @And while they were drinking wine the king said to Esther, What is your prayer? for it will be given to you and what is your request? for it will be done, even to the half of my kingdom.

bbe@Esther:5:7 @Then Esther said in answer, My prayer and my request is this:

bbe@Esther:5:9 @Then on that day Haman went out full of joy and glad in heart; but when he saw Mordecai in the king's doorway, and he did not get to his feet or give any sign of fear before him, Haman was full of wrath against Mordecai.

bbe@Esther:5:10 @But controlling himself, he went to his house; and he sent for his friends and Zeresh, his wife.

bbe@Esther:5:11 @And he gave them an account of the glories of his wealth, and the number of children he had, and the ways in which he had been honoured by the king, and how he had put him over the captains and servants of the king.

bbe@Esther:6:3 @And the king said, What honour and reward have been given to Mordecai for this? Then the servants who were waiting on the king said, Nothing has been done for him.

bbe@Esther:6:7 @And Haman, answering the king, said, For the man whom the king has delight in honouring,

bbe@Esther:6:12 @And Mordecai came back to the king's doorway. But Haman went quickly back to his house, sad and with his head covered.

bbe@Esther:6:14 @While they were still talking, the king's servants came to take Haman to the feast which Esther had made ready

bbe@Esther:7:2 @And the king said to Esther again on the second day, while they were drinking, What is your prayer, Queen Esther? for it will be given to you; and what is your request? for it will be done, even to the half of my kingdom.

bbe@Esther:7:3 @Then Esther the queen, answering, said, If I have your approval, O king, and if it is the king's pleasure, let my life be given to me in answer to my prayer, and my people at my request:

bbe@Esther:7:4 @For we are given up, I and my people, to destruction and death and to be cut off. If we had been taken as men-servants and women-servants for a price, I would have said nothing, for our trouble is little in comparison with the king's loss.

bbe@Esther:7:7 @And the king in his wrath got up from the feast and went into the garden: and Haman got to his feet to make a prayer for his life to Esther the queen: for he saw that the king's purpose was evil against him.

bbe@Esther:7:8 @Then the king came back from the garden into the room where they had been drinking; and Haman was stretched out on the seat where Esther was. Then the king said, Is he taking the queen by force before my eyes in my house? And while the words were on the king's lips, they put a cloth over Haman's face.

bbe@Esther:8:3 @Then Esther again came before the king, falling down at his feet, and made request to him with weeping, that he would put a stop to the evil purposes of Haman the Agagite and the designs which he had made against the Jews.

bbe@Esther:8:9 @Then at that time, on the twenty-third day of the third month, which is the month Sivan, the king's scribes were sent for; and everything ordered by Mordecai was put in writing and sent to the Jews and the captains and the rulers and the chiefs of all the divisions of the kingdom from India to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven divisions, to every division in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in their language, and to the Jews in their writing and their language.

bbe@Esther:8:10 @The letters were sent in the name of King Ahasuerus and stamped with his ring, and they were taken by men on horseback, going on the quick-running horses used for the king's business, the offspring of his best horses:

bbe@Esther:8:11 @In these letters the king gave authority to the Jews in every town to come together and make a fight for their lives, and to send death and destruction on the power of any people in any part of the kingdom attacking them or their children or their women, and to take their goods from them by force,

bbe@Esther:8:12 @On one day in every division of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, that is, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month Adar.

bbe@Esther:8:14 @So the men went out on the quick-running horses used on the king's business, wasting no time and forced on by the king's order; and the order was given out in Shushan, the king's town.

bbe@Esther:8:15 @And Mordecai went out from before the king, dressed in king-like robes of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold and clothing of purple and the best linen: and all the town of Shushan gave loud cries of joy.

bbe@Esther:8:17 @And in every part of the kingdom and in every town, wherever the king's letter and his order came, the Jews were glad with great joy, and had a feast and a good day. And a great number of the people of the land became Jews: for the fear of the Jews had come on them.

bbe@Esther:9:1 @Now on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, when the time came for the king's order to be put into effect, on the very day when the haters of the Jews had been hoping to have rule over them; though the opposite had come about, and the Jews had rule over their haters;

bbe@Esther:9:2 @On that day, the Jews came together in their towns through all the divisions of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, for the purpose of attacking all those who were attempting evil against them: and everyone had to give way before them, for the fear of them had come on all the peoples.

bbe@Esther:9:4 @For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and word of him went out through every part of the kingdom: for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.

bbe@Esther:9:12 @And the king said to Esther the queen, The Jews have put five hundred men to death in Shushan, as well as the ten sons of Haman: what then have they done in the rest of the kingdom! Now what is your prayer? for it will be given to you; what other request have you? and it will be done.

bbe@Esther:9:15 @For the Jews who were in Shushan came together again on the fourteenth day of the month Adar and put to death three hundred men in Shushan; but they put not a hand on their goods.

bbe@Esther:9:22 @As days on which the Jews had rest from their haters, and the month which for them was turned from sorrow to joy, and from weeping to a good day: and that they were to keep them as days of feasting and joy, of sending offerings to one another and good things to the poor.

bbe@Esther:9:25 @But when the business was put before the king, he gave orders by letters that the evil design which he had made against the Jews was to be turned against himself; and that he and his sons were to be put to death by hanging.

bbe@Esther:9:26 @So these days were named Purim, after the name of Pur. And so, because of the words of this letter, and of what they had seen in connection with this business, and what had come to them,

bbe@Esther:9:27 @The Jews made a rule and gave an undertaking, causing their seed and all those who were joined to them to do the same, so that it might be in force for ever, that they would keep those two days, as ordered in the letter, at the fixed time every year;

bbe@Esther:9:28 @And that those days were to be kept in memory through every generation and every family, in every division of the kingdom and every town, that there might never be a time when these days of Purim would not be kept among the Jews, or when the memory of them would go from the minds of their seed.

bbe@Esther:9:30 @And he sent letters to all the Jews in the hundred and twenty-seven divisions of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with true words of peace,

bbe@Esther:10:2 @And all his acts of power and his great strength and the full story of the high place which the king gave Mordecai, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Media and Persia?

bbe@Job:1:4 @His sons regularly went to one another's houses, and every one on his day gave a feast: and at these times they sent for their three sisters to take part in their feasts with them.

bbe@Job:1:7 @And the Lord said to the Satan, Where do you come from? And the Satan said in answer, From wandering this way and that on the earth, and walking about on it.

bbe@Job:1:9 @And the Satan said in answer to the Lord, Is it for nothing that Job is a god-fearing man?

bbe@Job:1:12 @And the Lord said to the Satan, See, I give all he has into your hands, only do not put a finger on the man himself. And the Satan went out from before the Lord.

bbe@Job:1:13 @And there was a day when his sons and daughters were feasting in the house of their oldest brother,

bbe@Job:1:14 @And a man came to Job, and said, The oxen were ploughing, and the asses were taking their food by their side:

bbe@Job:1:18 @And this one was still talking when another came, and said, Your sons and your daughters were feasting together in their oldest brother's house,

bbe@Job:1:20 @Then Job got up, and after parting his clothing and cutting off his hair, he went down on his face to the earth, and gave worship, and said,

bbe@Job:1:22 @In all this Job did no sin, and did not say that God's acts were foolish.

bbe@Job:2:2 @And the Lord said to the Satan, Where do you come from? And the Satan said in answer, From wandering this way and that on the earth, and walking about on it.

bbe@Job:2:4 @And the Satan said in answer to the Lord, Skin for skin, all a man has he will give for his life.

bbe@Job:2:7 @And the Satan went out from before the Lord, and sent on Job an evil disease covering his skin from his feet to the top of his head.

bbe@Job:2:10 @And he said to her, You are talking like one of the foolish women. If we take the good God sends us, are we not to take the evil when it comes? In all this Job kept his lips from sin.

bbe@Job:2:12 @And lifting up their eyes when they were still far off, it did not seem that the man they saw was Job because of the change in him. And they gave way to bitter weeping, with signs of grief, and put dust on their heads.

bbe@Job:3:2 @Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:3:15 @Or with rulers who had gold, and whose houses were full of silver;

bbe@Job:3:21 @To those whose desire is for death, but it comes not; who are searching for it more than for secret wealth;

bbe@Job:4:1 @And Eliphaz the Temanite made answer and said,

bbe@Job:4:2 @If one says a word, will it be a weariness to you? but who is able to keep from saying what is in his mind?

bbe@Job:4:5 @But now it has come on you and it is a weariness to you; you are touched by it and your mind is troubled.

bbe@Job:4:7 @Have you ever seen destruction come to an upright man? or when were the god-fearing ever cut off?

bbe@Job:4:14 @Fear came on me and shaking, and my bones were full of trouble;

bbe@Job:4:20 @Between morning and evening they are completely broken; they come to an end for ever, and no one takes note.

bbe@Job:5:1 @Give now a cry for help; is there anyone who will give you an answer? and to which of the holy ones will you make your prayer?

bbe@Job:5:15 @But he keeps safe from their sword those who have no father, and the poor from the power of the strong.

bbe@Job:5:18 @For after his punishment he gives comfort, and after wounding, his hands make you well.

bbe@Job:5:20 @When there is need of food he will keep you from death, and in war from the power of the sword.

bbe@Job:5:27 @See, we have made search with care, and it is so; it has come to our ears; see that you take note of it for yourself.

bbe@Job:6:1 @And Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:6:3 @For then its weight would be more than the sand of the seas: because of this my words have been uncontrolled.

bbe@Job:6:8 @If only I might have an answer to my prayer, and God would give me my desire!

bbe@Job:6:19 @The camel-trains of Tema were searching with care, the bands of Sheba were waiting for them:

bbe@Job:6:20 @They were put to shame because of their hope; they came and their hope was gone.

bbe@Job:6:22 @Did I say, Give me something? or, Make a payment for me out of your wealth?

bbe@Job:6:23 @Or, Get me out of the power of my hater? or, Give money so that I may be free from the power of the cruel ones?

bbe@Job:7:3 @So I have for my heritage months of pain to no purpose, and nights of weariness are given to me.

bbe@Job:7:20 @If I have done wrong, what have I done to you, O keeper of men? why have you made me a mark for your blows, so that I am a weariness to myself?

bbe@Job:8:1 @Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,

bbe@Job:8:9 @(For we are but of yesterday, and have no knowledge, because our days on earth are gone like a shade:)

bbe@Job:8:11 @Will the river-plant come up in its pride without wet earth? will the grass get tall without water?

bbe@Job:8:17 @His roots are twisted round the stones, forcing their way in between them.

bbe@Job:9:1 @And Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:9:3 @If a man was desiring to go to law with him, he would not be able to give him an answer to one out of a thousand questions.

bbe@Job:9:8 @By whose hand the heavens were stretched out, and who is walking on the waves of the sea:

bbe@Job:9:13 @God's wrath may not be turned back; the helpers of Rahab were bent down under him.

bbe@Job:9:14 @How much less may I give an answer to him, using the right words in argument with him?

bbe@Job:9:15 @Even if my cause was good, I would not be able to give an answer; I would make request for grace from him who was against me.

bbe@Job:9:24 @The land is given into the power of the evil-doer; the faces of its judges are covered; if not by him, then who has done it?

bbe@Job:9:32 @For he is not a man as I am, that I might give him an answer, that we might come together before a judge.

bbe@Job:9:33 @There is no one to give a decision between us, who might have control over us.

bbe@Job:11:1 @Then Zophar the Naamathite made answer and said,

bbe@Job:11:2 @Are all these words to go unanswered? and is a man seen to be right because he is full of talk?

bbe@Job:12:1 @And Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:12:3 @But I have a mind as well as you; I am equal to you: yes, who has not knowledge of such things as these?

bbe@Job:12:4 @It seems that I am to be as one who is a cause of laughing to his neighbour, one who makes his prayer to God and is answered! the upright man who has done no wrong is to be made sport of!

bbe@Job:12:6 @There is wealth in the tents of those who make destruction, and those by whom God is moved to wrath are safe; even those whose god is their strength.

bbe@Job:12:13 @With him there is wisdom and strength; power and knowledge are his

bbe@Job:12:21 @He puts shame on chiefs, and takes away the power of the strong;

bbe@Job:13:22 @Then at the sound of your voice I will give answer; or let me put forward my cause for you to give me an answer.

bbe@Job:14:2 @He comes out like a flower, and is cut down: he goes in flight like a shade, and is never seen again.

bbe@Job:14:15 @At the sound of your voice I would give an answer, and you would have a desire for the work of your hands.

bbe@Job:15:1 @And Eliphaz the Temanite made answer and said,

bbe@Job:15:2 @Will a wise man make answer with knowledge of no value, or will he give birth to the east wind?

bbe@Job:15:7 @Were you the first man to come into the world? or did you come into being before the hills?

bbe@Job:15:8 @Were you present at the secret meeting of God? and have you taken all wisdom for yourself?

bbe@Job:15:9 @What knowledge have you which we have not? is there anything in your mind which is not in ours?

bbe@Job:15:19 @For only to them was the land given, and no strange people were among them:)

bbe@Job:15:29 @He does not get wealth for himself, and is unable to keep what he has got; the heads of his grain are not bent down to the earth.

bbe@Job:15:33 @He is like a vine whose grapes do not come to full growth, or an olive-tree dropping its flowers.

bbe@Job:16:1 @And Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:16:3 @May words which are like the wind be stopped? or what is troubling you to make answer to them?

bbe@Job:16:4 @It would not be hard for me to say such things if your souls were in my soul's place; joining words together against you, and shaking my head at you:

bbe@Job:16:7 @But now he has overcome me with weariness and fear, and I am in the grip of all my trouble.

bbe@Job:16:8 @It has come up as a witness against me, and the wasting of my flesh makes answer to my face.

bbe@Job:16:11 @God gives me over to the power of sinners, sending me violently into the hands of evil-doers.

bbe@Job:16:16 @My face is red with weeping, and my eyes are becoming dark;

bbe@Job:16:20 @My friends make sport of me; to God my eyes are weeping,

bbe@Job:16:21 @So that he may give decision for a man in his cause with God, and between a son of man and his neighbour

bbe@Job:17:16 @Will they go down with me into the underworld? Will we go down together into the dust?

bbe@Job:18:1 @Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,

bbe@Job:18:2 @How long will it be before you have done talking? Get wisdom, and then we will say what is in our minds.

bbe@Job:18:3 @Why do we seem as beasts in your eyes, and as completely without knowledge?

bbe@Job:18:20 @At his fate those of the west are shocked, and those of the east are overcome with fear.

bbe@Job:19:1 @And Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:19:7 @Truly, I make an outcry against the violent man, but there is no answer: I give a cry for help, but no one takes up my cause.

bbe@Job:19:16 @At my cry my servant gives me no answer, and I have to make a prayer to him.

bbe@Job:19:28 @If you say, How cruel we will be to him! because the root of sin is clearly in him:

bbe@Job:20:1 @Then Zophar the Naamathite made answer and said,

bbe@Job:20:3 @I have to give ear to arguments which put me to shame, and your answers to me are wind without wisdom.

bbe@Job:20:10 @His children are hoping that the poor will be kind to them, and his hands give back his wealth.

bbe@Job:20:12 @Though evil-doing is sweet in his mouth, and he keeps it secretly under his tongue;

bbe@Job:20:15 @He takes down wealth as food, and sends it up again; it is forced out of his stomach by God.

bbe@Job:20:20 @There is no peace for him in his wealth, and no salvation for him in those things in which he took delight.

bbe@Job:20:21 @He had never enough for his desire; for this cause his well-being will quickly come to an end.

bbe@Job:20:22 @Even when his wealth is great, he is full of care, for the hand of everyone who is in trouble is turned against him.

bbe@Job:20:26 @All his wealth is stored up for the dark: a fire not made by man sends destruction on him, and on everything in his tent.

bbe@Job:21:1 @Then Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:21:7 @Why is life given to the evil-doers? why do they become old and strong in power?

bbe@Job:21:14 @Though they said to God, Go away from us, for we have no desire for the knowledge of your ways

bbe@Job:21:15 @What is the Ruler of all, that we may give him worship? and what profit is it to us to make prayer to him?

bbe@Job:21:16 @Truly, is not their well-being in their power? (The purpose of the evil-doers is far from me.)

bbe@Job:21:23 @One comes to his end in complete well-being, full of peace and quiet:

bbe@Job:21:33 @The earth of the valley covering his bones is sweet to him, and all men come after him, as there were unnumbered before him.

bbe@Job:21:34 @Why then do you give me comfort with words in which there is no profit, when you see that there is nothing in your answers but deceit?

bbe@Job:22:1 @Then Eliphaz the Temanite made answer and said,

bbe@Job:22:8 @For it was the man with power who had the land, and the man with an honoured name who was living in it.

bbe@Job:22:15 @Will you keep the old way by which evil men went?

bbe@Job:22:16 @Who were violently taken away before their time, who were overcome by the rush of waters:

bbe@Job:22:19 @The upright saw it and were glad: and those who had done no wrong made sport of them,

bbe@Job:22:20 @Saying, Truly, their substance is cut off, and their wealth is food for the fire.

bbe@Job:22:21 @Put yourself now in a right relation with him and be at peace: so will you do well in your undertakings.

bbe@Job:22:27 @You will make your prayer to him, and be answered; and you will give effect to your oaths.

bbe@Job:23:1 @And Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:23:5 @I would see what his answers would be, and have knowledge of what he would say to me.

bbe@Job:23:6 @Would he make use of his great power to overcome me? No, but he would give attention to me.

bbe@Job:24:6 @They get mixed grain from the field, and they take away the late fruit from the vines of those who have wealth.

bbe@Job:24:8 @They are wet with the rain of the mountains, and get into the cracks of the rock for cover.

bbe@Job:24:11 @Between the lines of olive-trees they make oil; though they have no drink, they are crushing out the grapes.

bbe@Job:24:22 @But God by his power gives long life to the strong; he gets up again, though he has no hope of life.

bbe@Job:25:1 @Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,

bbe@Job:25:2 @Rule and power are his; he makes peace in his high places.

bbe@Job:26:1 @Then Job made answer and said,

bbe@Job:26:2 @How have you given help to him who has no power! how have you been the salvation of the arm which has no strength!

bbe@Job:26:12 @By his power the sea was made quiet; and by his wisdom Rahab was wounded.

bbe@Job:26:14 @See, these are only the outskirts of his ways; and how small is that which comes to our ears about him! But the thunder of his acts of power is outside all knowledge.

bbe@Job:27:15 @When those of his house who are still living come to their end by disease, they are not put into the earth, and their widows are not weeping for them.

bbe@Job:27:19 @He goes to rest full of wealth, but does so for the last time: on opening his eyes, he sees it there no longer.

bbe@Job:28:15 @Gold may not be given for it, or a weight of silver in payment for it

bbe@Job:28:17 @Gold and glass are not equal to it in price, and it may not be exchanged for jewels of the best gold.

bbe@Job:28:22 @Destruction and Death say, We have only had word of it with our ears.

bbe@Job:28:25 @When he made a weight for the wind, measuring out the waters;

bbe@Job:29:3 @When his light was shining over my head, and when I went through the dark by his light.

bbe@Job:29:4 @As I was in my flowering years, when my tent was covered by the hand of God;

bbe@Job:29:5 @While the Ruler of all was still with me, and my children were round me;

bbe@Job:29:6 @When my steps were washed with milk, and rivers of oil were flowing out of the rock for me.

bbe@Job:29:7 @When I went out of my door to go up to the town, and took my seat in the public place,

bbe@Job:29:8 @The young men saw me, and went away, and the old men got up from their seats;

bbe@Job:29:10 @The chiefs kept back their words, and their tongues were joined to the roofs of their mouths.

bbe@Job:29:14 @I put on righteousness as my clothing, and was full of it; right decisions were to me a robe and a head-dress.

bbe@Job:29:15 @I was eyes to the blind, and feet to him who had no power of walking.

bbe@Job:29:17 @By me the great teeth of the evil-doer were broken, and I made him give up what he had violently taken away

bbe@Job:29:22 @After I had said what was in my mind, they were quiet and let my words go deep into their hearts;

bbe@Job:29:23 @They were waiting for me as for the rain, opening their mouths wide as for the spring rains.

bbe@Job:30:15 @Fears have come on me; my hope is gone like the wind, and my well-being like a cloud.

bbe@Job:30:20 @You give no answer to my cry, and take no note of my prayer.

bbe@Job:30:25 @Have I not been weeping for the crushed? and was not my soul sad for him who was in need?

bbe@Job:30:31 @And my music has been turned to sorrow, and the sound of my pipe into the noise of weeping.

bbe@Job:31:7 @If my steps have been turned out of the way, or if my heart went after my eyes, or if the property of another is in my hands;

bbe@Job:31:9 @If my heart went after another man's wife, or if I was waiting secretly at my neighbour's door;

bbe@Job:31:13 @If I did wrong in the cause of my man-servant, or my woman-servant, when they went to law with me;

bbe@Job:31:14 @What then will I do when God comes as my judge? and what answer may I give to his questions?

bbe@Job:31:15 @Did not God make him as well as me? did he not give us life in our mothers' bodies?

bbe@Job:31:23 @For the fear of God kept me back, and because of his power I might not do such things.

bbe@Job:31:25 @If I was glad because my wealth was great, and because my hand had got together a great store;

bbe@Job:31:32 @The traveller did not take his night's rest in the street, and my doors were open to anyone on a journey;

bbe@Job:31:35 @If only God would give ear to me, and the Ruler of all would give me an answer! or if what he has against me had been put in writing!

bbe@Job:32:1 @So these three men gave no more answers to Job, because he seemed to himself to be right.

bbe@Job:32:3 @And he was angry with his three friends, because they had been unable to give him an answer, and had not made Job's sin clear.

bbe@Job:32:4 @Now Elihu had kept quiet while Job was talking, because they were older than he;

bbe@Job:32:5 @And when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men, he was very angry.

bbe@Job:32:6 @And Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, made answer and said, I am young, and you are very old, so I was in fear, and kept myself from putting my knowledge before you.

bbe@Job:32:11 @I was waiting for your words, I was giving ear to your wise sayings; while you were searching out what to say,

bbe@Job:32:12 @I was taking note; and truly not one of you was able to make clear Job's error, or to give an answer to his words.

bbe@Job:32:14 @I will not put forward words like these, or make use of your sayings in answer to him.

bbe@Job:32:15 @Fear has overcome them, they have no more answers to give; they have come to an end of words.

bbe@Job:32:16 @And am I to go on waiting while they have nothing to say? while they keep quiet and give no more answers?

bbe@Job:32:17 @I will give my answer; I will put forward my knowledge:

bbe@Job:32:20 @Let me say what is in my mind, so that I may get comfort; let me give answer with open mouth.

bbe@Job:33:5 @If you are able, give me an answer; put your cause in order, and come forward.

bbe@Job:33:6 @See, I am the same as you are in the eyes of God; I was cut off from the same bit of wet earth.

bbe@Job:33:13 @Why do you put forward your cause against him, saying, He gives no answer to any of my words?

bbe@Job:33:23 @If now there may be an angel sent to him, one of the thousands which there are to be between him and God, and to make clear to man what is right for him;

bbe@Job:33:32 @If you have anything to say, give me an answer; for it is my desire that you may be judged free from sin.

bbe@Job:34:1 @And Elihu made answer and said,

bbe@Job:34:6 @Though I am right, still I am in pain; my wound may not be made well, though I have done no wrong.

bbe@Job:34:19 @Who has no respect for rulers, and who gives no more attention to those who have wealth than to the poor, for they are all the work of his hands.

bbe@Job:34:20 @Suddenly they come to an end, even in the middle of the night: the blow comes on the men of wealth, and they are gone, and the strong are taken away without the hand of man.

bbe@Job:34:36 @May Job be tested to the end, because his answers have been like those of evil men.

bbe@Job:35:1 @And Elihu made answer and said,

bbe@Job:35:4 @I will make answer to you and to your friends:

bbe@Job:35:12 @There they are crying out because of the pride of the evil-doers, but he gives them no answer.

bbe@Job:36:1 @And Elihu went on to say,

bbe@Job:37:4 @After it a voice is sounding, thundering out the word of his power; he does not keep back his thunder-flames; from his mouth his voice is sounding.

bbe@Job:37:5 @He does wonders, more than may be searched out; great things of which we have no knowledge;

bbe@Job:37:6 @For he says to the snow, Make the earth wet; and to the rain-storm, Come down.

bbe@Job:37:11 @The thick cloud is weighted with thunder-flame, and the cloud sends out its light;

bbe@Job:37:19 @Make clear to me what we are to say to him; we are unable to put our cause before him, because of the dark.

bbe@Job:38:1 @And the Lord made answer to Job out of the storm-wind, and said,

bbe@Job:38:3 @Get your strength together like a man of war; I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.

bbe@Job:38:4 @Where were you when I put the earth on its base? Say, if you have knowledge.

bbe@Job:38:5 @By whom were its measures fixed? Say, if you have wisdom; or by whom was the line stretched out over it?

bbe@Job:38:6 @On what were its pillars based, or who put down its angle-stone,

bbe@Job:38:8 @Or where were you when the sea came to birth, pushing out from its secret place;

bbe@Job:38:14 @It is changed like wet earth under a stamp, and is coloured like a robe;

bbe@Job:38:34 @Is your voice sent up to the cloud, so that you may be covered by the weight of waters?

bbe@Job:38:35 @Do you send out the thunder-flames, so that they may go, and say to you, Here we are?

bbe@Job:39:16 @She is cruel to her young ones, as if they were not hers; her work is to no purpose; she has no fear.

bbe@Job:39:19 @Do you give strength to the horse? is it by your hand that his neck is clothed with power?

bbe@Job:40:1 @Will he who is protesting give teaching to the Ruler of all? Let him who has arguments to put forward against God give an answer.

bbe@Job:40:2 @And Job said in answer to the Lord,

bbe@Job:40:3 @Truly, I am of no value; what answer may I give to you? I will put my hand on my mouth.

bbe@Job:40:5 @Then the Lord made answer to Job out of the storm-wind, and said,

bbe@Job:40:6 @Get your strength together like a man of war: I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.

bbe@Job:40:9 @Put on the ornaments of your pride; be clothed with glory and power:

bbe@Job:41:11 @Who ever went against me, and got the better of me? There is no one under heaven!

bbe@Job:41:12 @I will not keep quiet about the parts of his body, or about his power, and the strength of his frame.

bbe@Job:41:16 @One is so near to the other that no air may come between them.

bbe@Job:41:24 @His heart is as strong as a stone, hard as the lower crushing-stone.

bbe@Job:41:30 @Under him are sharp edges of broken pots: as if he was pulling a grain-crushing instrument over the wet earth.

bbe@Job:42:1 @And Job said in answer to the Lord,

bbe@Job:42:4 @Give ear to me, and I will say what is in my mind; I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.

bbe@Job:42:9 @And Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did as the Lord had said. And the Lord gave ear to Job.

bbe@Job:42:15 @And there were no women so beautiful as the daughters of Job in all the earth: and their father gave them a heritage among their brothers.

bbe@Psalms:1:3 @He will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, which gives its fruit at the right time, whose leaves will ever be green; and he will do well in all his undertakings.

bbe@Psalms:3:1 @AA PPssaallmm.. OOff DDaavviidd.. WWhheenn hhee wweenntt iinn fflliigghhtt ffrroomm AAbbssaalloomm hhiiss ssoonn..

bbe@Psalms:3:4 @I send up a cry to the Lord with my voice, and he gives me an answer from his holy hill. (Selah.)

bbe@Psalms:6:2 @Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am wasted away: make me well, for even my bones are troubled.

bbe@Psalms:6:6 @The voice of my sorrow is a weariness to me; all the night I make my bed wet with weeping; it is watered by the drops flowing from my eyes.

bbe@Psalms:6:8 @Go from me, all you workers of evil; for the Lord has given ear to the voice of my weeping.

bbe@Psalms:8:5 @For you have made him only a little lower than the gods, crowning him with glory and honour.

bbe@Psalms:9:4 @For you gave approval to my right and my cause; you were seated in your high place judging in righteousness.

bbe@Psalms:9:9 @The Lord will be a high tower for those who are crushed down, a high tower in times of trouble;

bbe@Psalms:9:10 @And those who have knowledge of your name will put their faith in you; because you, Lord, have ever given your help to those who were waiting for you.

bbe@Psalms:10:3 @For the evil-doer is lifted up because of the purpose of his heart, and he whose mind is fixed on wealth is turned away from the Lord, saying evil against him.

bbe@Psalms:12:4 @They have said, With our tongues will we overcome; our lips are ours: who is lord over us?

bbe@Psalms:12:5 @Because of the crushing of the poor and the weeping of those in need, now will I come to his help, says the Lord; I will give him the salvation which he is desiring.

bbe@Psalms:13:2 @How long is my soul to be in doubt, with sorrow in my heart all the day? how long will he who is against me be given power over me?

bbe@Psalms:13:3 @Let my voice come before you, and give me an answer, O Lord my God; let your light be shining on me, so that the sleep of death may not overtake me;

bbe@Psalms:14:2 @The Lord was looking down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who had wisdom, searching after God.

bbe@Psalms:14:5 @Then were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the upright.

bbe@Psalms:17:6 @My cry has gone up to you, for you will give me an answer, O God: let your ear be turned to me, and give attention to my words.

bbe@Psalms:17:14 @With your hand, O Lord, from men, even men of the world, whose heritage is in this life, and whom you make full with your secret wealth: they are full of children; after their death their offspring take the rest of their goods.

bbe@Psalms:18:2 @The Lord is my Rock, my walled town, and my saviour; my God, my Rock, in him will I put my faith; my breastplate, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

bbe@Psalms:18:4 @The cords of death were round me, and the seas of evil put me in fear.

bbe@Psalms:18:5 @The cords of hell were round me: the nets of death came on me.

bbe@Psalms:18:6 @In my trouble my voice went up to the Lord, and my cry to my God: my voice came to his hearing in his holy Temple, and my prayer came before him, even into his ears.

bbe@Psalms:18:7 @Then trouble and shock came on the earth; and the bases of the mountains were moved and shaking, because he was angry.

bbe@Psalms:18:8 @There went up a smoke from his nose, and a fire of destruction from his mouth: flames were lighted by it.

bbe@Psalms:18:9 @The heavens were bent, so that he might come down; and it was dark under his feet.

bbe@Psalms:18:10 @And he went in flight through the air, seated on a storm-cloud: going quickly on the wings of the wind

bbe@Psalms:18:12 @Before his shining light his dark clouds went past, raining ice and fire.

bbe@Psalms:18:14 @He sent out his arrows, driving them in all directions; by his flames of fire they were troubled.

bbe@Psalms:18:15 @Then the deep beds of the waters were seen, and the bases of the world were uncovered, because of your words of wrath, O Lord, because of the breath from your mouth.

bbe@Psalms:18:17 @He made me free from my strong hater, and from those who were against me, because they were stronger than I.

bbe@Psalms:18:22 @For all his decisions were before me, and I did not put away his laws from me.

bbe@Psalms:18:41 @They were crying out, but there was no one to come to their help: even to the Lord, but he gave them no answer.

bbe@Psalms:18:42 @Then they were crushed as small as dust before the wind; they were drained out like the waste of the streets.

bbe@Psalms:19:10 @More to be desired are they than gold, even than much shining gold; sweeter than the dropping honey

bbe@Psalms:20:5 @We will be glad in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will put up our flags: may the Lord give you all your requests.

bbe@Psalms:20:6 @Now am I certain that the Lord gives salvation to his king; he will give him an answer from his holy heaven with the strength of salvation in his right hand.

bbe@Psalms:20:7 @Some put their faith in carriages and some in horses; but we will be strong in the name of the Lord our God.

bbe@Psalms:20:8 @They are bent down and made low; but we have been lifted up.

bbe@Psalms:21:11 @For their thoughts were bitter against you: they had an evil design in their minds, which they were not able to put into effect.

bbe@Psalms:30:6 @When things went well for me I said, I will never be moved.

bbe@Psalms:30:8 @My voice went up to you, O Lord; I made my prayer to the Lord.

bbe@Psalms:31:11 @Because of all those who are against me, I have become a word of shame to my neighbours; a cause of shaking the head and a fear to my friends: those who saw me in the street went in flight from me.

bbe@Psalms:31:13 @False statements against me have come to my ears; fear was on every side: they were talking together against me, designing to take away my life.

bbe@Psalms:31:22 @And as for me, I said in my fear, I am cut off from before your eyes; but you gave ear to the voice of my prayer, when my cry went up to you.

bbe@Psalms:37:16 @The little which the good man has is better than the wealth of evil-doers.

bbe@Psalms:37:35 @I have seen the evil-doer in great power, covering the earth like a great tree.

bbe@Psalms:38:2 @For your arrows have gone into my flesh, and I am crushed under the weight of your hand.

bbe@Psalms:78:17 @And they went on sinning against him even more, turning away from the Most High in the waste land;

bbe@Psalms:78:26 @He sent an east wind from heaven, driving on the south wind by his power.

bbe@Psalms:78:29 @So they had food and were full; for he gave them their desire;

bbe@Psalms:78:30 @But they were not turned from their desires; and while the food was still in their mouths,

bbe@Psalms:78:32 @For all this they went on sinning even more, and had no faith in his great wonders.

bbe@Psalms:78:33 @So their days were wasted like a breath, and their years in trouble.

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: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: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:31:13 @Then the virgin will have joy in the dance, and the young men and the old will be glad: for I will have their weeping turned into joy, I will give them comfort and make them glad after their sorrow.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:15 @So has the Lord said: In Ramah there is a sound of crying, weeping and bitter sorrow; Rachel weeping for her children; she will not be comforted for their loss.

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:32:17 @Ah Lord God! see, you have made the heaven and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm, and there is nothing you are not able to do:

bbe@Jeremiah:32:23 @And they came in and took it for their heritage, but they did not give ear to your voice, and were not ruled by your law; they have done nothing of all you gave them orders to do: so you have made all this evil come on them:

bbe@Jeremiah:32:33 @And they have been turning their backs and not their faces to me: and though I was their teacher, getting up early and teaching them, their ears were not open to teaching.

bbe@Jeremiah:33:3 @Let your cry come to me, and I will give you an answer, and let you see great things and secret things of which you had no knowledge.

bbe@Jeremiah:34:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, when Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth which were under his rule, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem and all its towns, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:34:7 @When the army of the king of Babylon was fighting against Jerusalem and against all the towns of Judah which had not been taken, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these were the last of the walled towns of Judah.

bbe@Jeremiah:34:8 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, after King Zedekiah had made an agreement with all the people in Jerusalem, to give news in public that servants were to be made free;

bbe@Jeremiah:34:18 @And I will give the men who have gone against my agreement and have not given effect to the words of the agreement which they made before me, when the ox was cut in two and they went between the parts of it,

bbe@Jeremiah:34:19 @The rulers of Judah and the rulers of Jerusalem, the unsexed servants and the priests and all the people of the land who went between the parts of the ox,

bbe@Jeremiah:35:6 @But they said, We will take no wine: for Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, gave us orders, saying, You are to take no wine, you or your sons, for ever:

bbe@Jeremiah:35:8 @And we have kept the rules of Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, in everything which he gave us orders to do, drinking no wine all our days, we and our wives and our sons and our daughters;

bbe@Jeremiah:35:10 @But we have been living in tents, and have done everything which Jonadab our father gave us orders to do.

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:36:18 @Then Baruch, answering, said, He said all these things to me by word of mouth, and I put them down with ink in the book.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:20 @Then they went into the open square to the king; but the book they put away in the room of Elishama the scribe; and they gave the king an account of all the words.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:21 @So the king sent Jehudi to get the book, and he took it from the room of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi gave a reading of it in the hearing of the king and all the rulers who were by the king's side.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:28 @Take another book and put down in it all the words which were in the first book, which Jehoiakim, king of Judah, put into the fire.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:5 @And Pharaoh's army had come out from Egypt: and the Chaldaeans, who were attacking Jerusalem, hearing news of them, went away from Jerusalem.)

bbe@Jeremiah:37:10 @For even if you had overcome all the army of the Chaldaeans fighting against you, and there were only wounded men among them, still they would get up, every man in his tent, and put this town on fire.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:12 @Jeremiah went out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, with the purpose of taking up his heritage there among the people.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:15 @And the rulers were angry with Jeremiah, and gave him blows and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:2 @These are the words of the Lord: Whoever goes on living in this town will come to his death by the sword or through need of food or by disease: but whoever goes out to the Chaldaeans will keep his life out of the power of the attackers and be safe.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:4 @Then the rulers said to the king, Let this man be put to death, because he is putting fear into the hearts of the men of war who are still in the town, and into the hearts of the people, by saying such things to them: this man is not working for the well-being of the people, but for their damage.

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:38:8 @And Ebed-melech went out from the king's house and said to the king,

bbe@Jeremiah:38:11 @So Ebed-melech took the men with him and went into the house of the king, to the place where the clothing was kept, and got from there old clothing and bits of old cloth, and let them down by cords into the water-hole where Jeremiah was.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:15 @Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, If I give you the answer to your question, will you not certainly put me to death? and if I make a suggestion to you, you will not give it a hearing.

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:38:22 @See, all the rest of the women in the house of the king of Judah will be taken out to the king of Babylon's captains, and these women will say, Your nearest friends have been false to you and have got the better of you: they have made your feet go deep into the wet earth, and they are turned away back from you.

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:38:27 @Then all the rulers came to Jeremiah, questioning him: and he gave them an answer in the words the king had given him orders to say. So they said nothing more to him; for the thing was not made public.

bbe@Jeremiah:39:4 @And when Zedekiah, king of Judah, and all the men of war saw it, they went in flight from the town by night, by the way of the king's garden, through the doorway between the two walls: and they went out by the Arabah.

bbe@Jeremiah:39:5 @But the Chaldaean army went after them and overtook Zedekiah in the lowlands of Jericho: and they made him a prisoner and took him up to Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, to Riblah in the land of Hamath, to be judged by him.

bbe@Jeremiah:39:8 @And the Chaldaeans put the king's house on fire, as well as the houses of the people, and had the walls of Jerusalem broken down.

bbe@Jeremiah:39:9 @Then Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took away to Babylon as prisoners, all the rest of the workmen who were still in the town, as well as those who had given themselves up to him, and all the rest of the people.

bbe@Jeremiah:40:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, after Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him; for he had been put in chains, among all the prisoners of Jerusalem and Judah who were taken away prisoners to Babylon.

bbe@Jeremiah:40:6 @So Jeremiah went to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, in Mizpah, and was living with him among the people who were still in the land.

bbe@Jeremiah:40:7 @Now when it came to the ears of all the captains of the forces who were in the field, and their men, that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, ruler in the land, and had put under his care the men and women and children, all the poorest of the land, those who had not been taken away to Babylon;

bbe@Jeremiah:40:9 @And Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, took an oath to them and their men, saying, Have no fear of the servants of the Chaldaeans: go on living in the land, and become the servants of the king of Babylon, and all will be well.

bbe@Jeremiah:40:11 @In the same way, when all the Jews who were in Moab and among the children of Ammon and in Edom and in all the countries, had news that the king of Babylon had let Judah keep some of its people and that he had put over them Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan;

bbe@Jeremiah:40:13 @Now Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces which were in the field, came to Gedaliah in Mizpah,

bbe@Jeremiah:41:2 @Then Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men who were with him, got up, and attacking Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, with the sword, put to death him whom the king of Babylon had made ruler over the land.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:3 @And Ishmael put to death all the Jews who were with him, even with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldaean men of war.

bbe@Jeremiah:41:5 @Some people came from Shechem, from Shiloh and Samaria, eighty men, with the hair of their faces cut off and their clothing out of order, and with cuts on their bodies, and in their hands meal offerings and perfumes which they were taking to the house of the Lord.

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:44:5 @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@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: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:5:6 @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:5:20 @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.

bbe@Hosea:2:2 @Take up the cause against your mother, take it up, for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband; let her put away her loose ways from her face, and her false ways from between her breasts;

bbe@Hosea:2:13 @And I will give her punishment for the days of the Baals, to whom she has been burning perfumes, when she made herself fair with her nose-rings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, giving no thought to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Hosea:2:15 @And I will give her vine-gardens from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will give her answer there as in the days when she was young, and as in the time when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Hosea:2:21 @And it will be, in that day, says the Lord, that I will give an answer to the heavens, and the heavens to the earth;

bbe@Hosea:2:22 @And the earth will give its answer to the grain and the wine and the oil, and they will give an answer to Jezreel;

bbe@Hosea:2:23 @And I will put her as seed in the earth, and I will have mercy on her to whom no mercy was given; and I will say to those who were not my people, You are my people, and they will say, My God.

bbe@Hosea:4:7 @Even while they were increasing in number they were sinning against me; I will let their glory be changed into shame.

bbe@Hosea:5:5 @And the pride of Israel gives an answer to his face; and Ephraim will have a fall through his sins, and the fall of Judah will be the same as theirs.

bbe@Hosea:5:13 @When Ephraim saw his disease and Judah his wound, then Ephraim went to Assyria and sent to the great king; but he is not able to make you well or give you help for your wound.

bbe@Hosea:6:1 @Come, let us go back to the Lord; for he has given us wounds and he will make us well; he has given blows and he will give help.

bbe@Hosea:6:2 @After two days he will give us life, and on the third day he will make us get up, and we will be living before him.

bbe@Hosea:6:7 @But like a man, they have gone against the agreement; there they were false to me.

bbe@Hosea:7:1 @When my desire was for the fate of my people to be changed and to make Israel well, then the sin of Ephraim was made clear, and the evil-doing of Samaria; for their ways are false, and the thief comes into the house, while the band of outlaws takes property by force in the streets.

bbe@Hosea:7:10 @And the pride of Israel gives an answer to his face; but for all this, they have not gone back to the Lord their God, or made search for him.

bbe@Hosea:8:2 @They will send up to me a cry for help: We, Israel, have knowledge of you, O God of Israel.

bbe@Hosea:10:3 @Now, truly, they will say, We have no king, we have no fear of the Lord; and the king, what is he able to do for us?

bbe@Hosea:11:2 @When I sent for them, then they went away from me; they made offerings to the Baals, burning perfumes to images.

bbe@Hosea:11:3 @But I was guiding Ephraim's footsteps; I took them up in my arms, but they were not conscious that I was ready to make them well.

bbe@Hosea:11:10 @They will go after the Lord; his cry will be like that of a lion; his cry will be loud, and the children will come from the west, shaking with fear;

bbe@Hosea:12:4 @He had a fight with the angel and overcame him; he made request for grace to him with weeping; he came face to face with him in Beth-el and there his words came to him;

bbe@Hosea:12:8 @And Ephraim said, Now I have got wealth and much property; in all my works no sin may be seen in me.

bbe@Hosea:12:12 @And Jacob went in flight into the field of Aram, and Israel became a servant for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep.

bbe@Hosea:13:6 @When I gave them food they were full, and their hearts were full of pride, and they did not keep me in mind.

bbe@Hosea:13:14 @I will give the price to make them free from the power of the underworld, I will be their saviour from death: O death! where are your pains? O underworld! where is your destruction? my eyes will have no pity.

bbe@Hosea:14:2 @Take with you words, and come back to the Lord; say to him, Let there be forgiveness for all wrongdoing, so that we may take what is good, and give in payment the fruit of our lips.

bbe@Hosea:14:3 @Assyria will not be our salvation; we will not go on horses; we will not again say to the work of our hands, You are our gods; for in you there is mercy for the child who has no father.

bbe@Hosea:14:5 @I will be as the dew to Israel; he will put out flowers like a lily, and send out his roots like Lebanon.

bbe@Hosea:14:6 @His branches will be stretched out, he will be beautiful as the olive-tree and sweet-smelling as Lebanon.

bbe@Hosea:14:7 @They will come back and have rest in his shade; their life will be made new like the grain, and they will put out flowers like the vine; his name will be like the wine of Lebanon.

bbe@Hosea:14:8 @As for Ephraim, what has he to do with false gods any longer? I have given an answer and I will keep watch over him; I am like a branching fir-tree, from me comes your fruit.

bbe@Joel:1:5 @Come out of your sleep, you who are overcome with wine, and give yourselves to weeping; give cries of sorrow, all you drinkers of wine, because of the sweet wine; for it has been cut off from your mouths.

bbe@Joel:2:12 @But even now, says the Lord, come back to me with all your heart, keeping from food, with weeping and with sorrow:

bbe@Joel:2:17 @Let the priests, the servants of the Lord, be weeping between the covered way and the altar, and let them say, Have mercy on your people, O Lord, do not give up your heritage to shame, so that the nations become their rulers: why let them say among the peoples, Where is their God?

bbe@Joel:2:19 @And the Lord made answer and said to his people, See, I will send you grain and wine and oil in full measure: and I will no longer let you be shamed among the nations:

bbe@Joel:2:20 @I will send the one from the north far away from you, driving him into a dry and waste land, with his front to the sea of the east and his back to the sea of the west, and the smell of him will go up, even his evil smell will go up.

bbe@Joel:2:25 @I will give back to you the years which were food for the locust, the plant-worm, the field-fly, and the worm, my great army which I sent among you.

bbe@Joel:3:18 @And it will come about in that day that the mountains will be dropping sweet wine, and the hills will be flowing with milk, and all the streams of Judah will be flowing with water; and a fountain will come out from the house of the Lord, watering the valley of acacia-trees.

bbe@Amos:1:5 @And I will have the locks of the door of Damascus broken, and him who is seated in power cut off from the valley of Aven, and him in whose hand is the rod from the house of Eden; and the people of Aram will go away as prisoners into Kir, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:1:8 @Him who is seated in power I will have cut off from Ashdod, and him in whose hand is the rod from Ashkelon; and my hand will be turned against Ekron, and the rest of the Philistines will come to destruction, says the Lord God.

bbe@Amos:1:9 @These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Tyre, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they gave up all the people prisoners to Edom, without giving a thought to the brothers' agreement between them.

bbe@Amos:2:4 @These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Judah, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they have given up the law of the Lord, and have not kept his rules; and their false ways, in which their fathers went, have made them go out of the right way.

bbe@Amos:2:12 @But to those who were separate you gave wine for drink; and to the prophets you said, Be prophets no longer.

bbe@Amos:4:8 @So two or three towns went wandering to one town looking for water, and did not get enough: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:11 @And I have sent destruction among you, as when God sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a burning stick pulled out of the fire: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:5:16 @So these are the words of the Lord, the God of armies, the Lord: There will be weeping in all the open spaces; and in all the streets they will say, Sorrow! sorrow! and they will get in the farmer to the weeping, and the makers of sad songs to give cries of grief.

bbe@Amos:5:19 @As if a man, running away from a lion, came face to face with a bear; or went into the house and put his hand on the wall and got a bite from a snake.

bbe@Amos:6:7 @So now they will go away prisoners with the first of those who are made prisoners, and the loud cry of those who were stretched out will come to an end.

bbe@Amos:6:13 @You whose joy is in a thing of no value, who say, Have we not taken for ourselves horns by the strength which is ours?

bbe@Amos:7:7 @This is what he let me see: and I saw the Lord stationed by a wall made straight by a weighted line, and he had a weighted line in his hand.

bbe@Amos:7:8 @And the Lord said to me, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A weighted line. Then the Lord said, See, I will let down a weighted line among my people Israel; never again will my eyes be shut to their sin:

bbe@Amos:7:14 @Then Amos in answer said to Amaziah, I am no prophet, or one of the sons of the prophets; I am a herdman and one who takes care of sycamore-trees:

bbe@Amos:8:5 @Saying, When will the new moon be gone, so that we may do trade in grain? and the Sabbath, so that we may put out in the market the produce of our fields? making the measure small and the price great, and trading falsely with scales of deceit;

bbe@Amos:8:10 @Your feasts will be turned into sorrow and all your melody into songs of grief; everyone will be clothed with haircloth, and the hair of every head will be cut; I will make the weeping like that for an only son, and the end of it like a bitter day.

bbe@Amos:9:1 @I saw the Lord stationed by the side of the altar, giving blows to the tops of the pillars so that the doorsteps were shaking: and he said, I will let all of them be broken with earth-shocks; I will put the last of them to the sword: if any one of them goes in flight he will not get away, not one of them will be safe.

bbe@Amos:9:13 @See, the days will come, says the Lord, when the ploughman will overtake him who is cutting the grain, and the crusher of the grapes him who is planting seed; and sweet wine will be dropping from the mountains, and the hills will be turned into streams of wine.

bbe@Obadiah:1:1 @The vision of Obadiah. This is what the Lord has said about Edom: We have had word from the Lord, and a representative has been sent among the nations, saying, Up! and let us make war against her.

bbe@Obadiah:1:7 @All the men who were united with you have been false to you, driving you out to the edge of the land: the men who were at peace with you have overcome you; they have taken their heritage in your place.

bbe@Obadiah:1:10 @Because you were the cause of violent death and because of your cruel behaviour to your brother Jacob, you will be covered with shame and will be cut off for ever.

bbe@Obadiah:1:11 @Because you were there watching when men from other lands took away his goods, and strange men came into his doors, and put the fate of Jerusalem to the decision of chance; you were like one of them.

bbe@Obadiah:1:20 @And those of the children of Israel who were the first to be taken away as prisoners, will have their heritage among the Canaanites as far as Zarephath; and those who were taken away from Jerusalem, who are in Sepharad, will have the towns of the South.

bbe@Jonah:1:3 @And Jonah got up to go in flight to Tarshish, away from the Lord; and he went down to Joppa, and saw there a ship going to Tarshish: so he gave them the price of the journey and went down into it to go with them to Tarshish, away from the Lord.

bbe@Jonah:1:5 @Then the sailors were full of fear, every man crying to his god; and the goods in the ship were dropped out into the sea to make the weight less. But Jonah had gone down into the inmost part of the ship where he was stretched out in a deep sleep.

bbe@Jonah:1:6 @And the ship's captain came to him and said to him, What are you doing sleeping? Up! say a prayer to your God, if by chance God will give a thought to us, so that we may not come to destruction.

bbe@Jonah:1:10 @And the men were in great fear, and they said to him, What is this you have done? For the men had knowledge of his flight from the Lord because he had not kept it from them.

bbe@Jonah:1:11 @And they said to him, What are we to do to you so that the sea may become calm for us? For the sea was getting rougher and rougher.

bbe@Jonah:1:13 @And the men were working hard to get back to the land, but they were not able to do so: for the sea got rougher and rougher against them.

bbe@Jonah:2:2 @In my trouble I was crying to the Lord, and he gave me an answer; out of the deepest underworld I sent up a cry, and you gave ear to my voice.

bbe@Jonah:2:3 @For you have put me down into the deep, into the heart of the sea; and the river was round about me; all your waves and your rolling waters went over me.

bbe@Jonah:2:5 @The waters were circling round me, even to the neck; the deep was about me; the sea-grass was twisted round my head.

bbe@Jonah:2:6 @I went down to the bases of the mountains; as for the earth, her walls were about me for ever: but you have taken up my life from the underworld, O Lord my God.

bbe@Jonah:3:3 @So Jonah got up and went to Nineveh as the Lord had said. Now Nineveh was a very great town, three days' journey from end to end.

bbe@Jonah:3:4 @And Jonah first of all went a day's journey into the town, and crying out said, In forty days destruction will overtake Nineveh.

bbe@Jonah:3:10 @And God saw what they did, how they were turned from their evil way; and God's purpose was changed as to the evil which he said he would do to them, and he did it not

bbe@Jonah:4:2 @And he made prayer to the Lord and said, O Lord, is this not what I said when I was still in my country? This is why I took care to go in flight to Tarshish: for I was certain that you were a loving God, full of pity, slow to be angry and great in mercy, and ready to be turned from your purpose of evil.

bbe@Jonah:4:5 @Then Jonah went out of the town, and took his seat on the east side of the town and made himself a roof of branches and took his seat under its shade till he saw what would become of the town.

bbe@Jonah:4:10 @And the Lord said, You had pity on the vine, for which you did no work and for the growth of which you were not responsible; which came up in a night and came to an end in a night;

bbe@Jonah:4:11 @And am I not to have mercy on Nineveh, that great town, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand persons without the power of judging between right and left, as well as much cattle?

bbe@Micah:1:9 @For her wounds may not be made well: for it has come even to Judah, stretching up to the doorway of my people, even to Jerusalem.

bbe@Micah:1:10 @Give no word of it in Gath, let there be no weeping at all: at Beth-le-aphrah be rolling in the dust.

bbe@Micah:1:13 @Let the war-carriage be yoked to the quick-running horse, you who are living in Lachish: she was the first cause of sin to the daughter of Zion; for the wrongdoings of Israel were seen in you.

bbe@Micah:2:1 @A curse on the designers of evil, working on their beds! in the morning light they do it, because it is in their power.

bbe@Micah:2:3 @For this cause the Lord has said, See, against this family I am purposing an evil from which you will not be able to take your necks away, and you will be weighted down by it; for it is an evil time.

bbe@Micah:2:8 @As for you, you have become haters of those who were at peace with you: you take the clothing of those who go by without fear, and make them prisoners of war.

bbe@Micah:3:4 @Then they will be crying to the Lord for help, but he will not give them an answer: yes, he will keep his face veiled from them at that time, because their acts have been evil.

bbe@Micah:3:7 @And the seers will be shamed, and the readers of the future will be at a loss, all of them covering their lips; for there is no answer from God.

bbe@Micah:3:8 @But I truly am full of the spirit of the Lord, with power of judging and with strength to make clear to Jacob his wrongdoing and to Israel his sin.

bbe@Micah:4:2 @And a number of nations will go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and 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 from Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

bbe@Micah:4:3 @And he will be judge between great peoples, and strong nations far away will be ruled by his decisions; their swords will be hammered into plough-blades and their spears into vine-knives: nations will no longer be lifting up their swords against one another, and knowledge of war will have gone for ever.

bbe@Micah:4:5 @For all the peoples will be walking, every one in the name of his god, and we will be walking in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.

bbe@Micah:4:7 @And I will make her whose steps were uncertain a small band, and her who was feeble a strong nation: and the Lord will be their King in Mount Zion from now and for ever.

bbe@Micah:4:8 @And you, O tower of the flock, Ophel of the daughter of Zion, to you it will come, even the earlier authority, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.

bbe@Micah:4:13 @Up! and let the grain be crushed, O daughter of Zion, for I will make your horn iron and your feet brass, and a number of peoples will be broken by you, and you will give up their increase to the Lord and their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.

bbe@Micah:5:5 @And this will be our peace: when the Assyrian comes into our country and his feet are in our land, then we will put up against him seven keepers of the flocks and eight chiefs among men.

bbe@Micah:5:7 @And the rest of Jacob will be among the mass of peoples like dew from the Lord, like showers on the grass, which may not be kept back by man, or be waiting for the sons of men.

bbe@Micah:6:3 @O my people, what have I done to you? how have I been a weariness to you? give answer against me.

bbe@Micah:6:5 @O my people, keep in mind now what was designed by Balak, king of Moab, and the answer which Balaam, son of Beor, gave him; the events, from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you may be certain of the upright acts of the Lord.

bbe@Micah:6:11 @Is it possible for me to let wrong scales and the bag of false weights go without punishment?

bbe@Micah:6:12 @For its men of wealth are cruel, and its people have said what is not true, and their tongue is false in their mouth.

bbe@Nahum:1:3 @The Lord is slow to get angry and great in power, and will not let the sinner go without punishment: the way of the Lord is in the wind and the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

bbe@Nahum:1:4 @He says sharp words to the sea and makes it dry, drying up all the rivers: Bashan is feeble, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon is without strength.

bbe@Nahum:2:1 @A crusher has come up before your face: keep a good look-out, let the way be watched, make yourself strong, let your power be greatly increased.

bbe@Nahum:2:2 @For the Lord will make good the vine of Jacob, as well as the vine of Israel: for the wasters have made them waste and sent destruction on the branches of their vine.

bbe@Nahum:2:7 @And the queen is uncovered, she is taken away and her servant-girls are weeping like the sound of doves, hammering on their breasts.

bbe@Nahum:2:9 @Take silver, take gold; for there is no end to the store; take for yourselves a weight of things to be desired.

bbe@Nahum:2:11 @Where is the lions' hole, the place where the young lions got their food, where the lion and the she-lion were walking with their young, without cause for fear?

bbe@Nahum:3:7 @And it will come about that all who see you will go in flight from you and say, Nineveh is made waste: who will be weeping for her? where am I to get comforters for her?

bbe@Nahum:3:9 @Ethiopia was her strength and Egyptians without number; Put and Lubim were her helpers.

bbe@Nahum:3:19 @Your pain may not be made better; you are wounded to death: all those hearing the news about you will be waving their hands in joy over you: for who has not undergone the weight of your evil-doing again and again?

bbe@Habakkuk:2:1 @I will take my position and be on watch, placing myself on my tower, looking out to see what he will say to me, and what answer he will give to my protest.

bbe@Habakkuk:2:2 @And the Lord gave me an answer, and said, Put the vision in writing and make it clear on stones, so that the reader may go quickly.

bbe@Habakkuk:2:6 @Will not all these take up a word of shame against him and a bitter saying against him, and say, A curse on him who goes on taking what is not his and is weighted down with the property of debtors!

bbe@Habakkuk:2:11 @For the stone will give a cry out of the wall, and it will be answered by the board out of the woodwork.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:3 @God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah. The heavens were covered with his glory, and the earth was full of his praise.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:4 @He was shining like the light; he had rays coming out from his hand: there his power was kept secret.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:5 @Before him went disease, and flames went out at his feet.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:6 @From his high place he sent shaking on the earth; he saw and nations were suddenly moved: and the eternal mountains were broken, the unchanging hills were bent down; his ways are eternal.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:7 @The curtains of Cushan were troubled, and the tents of Midian were shaking.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:8 @Was your wrath burning against the rivers? were you angry with the sea, that you went on your horses, on your war-carriages of salvation?

bbe@Habakkuk:3:10 @The mountains saw you and were moved with fear; the clouds were streaming with water: the voice of the deep was sounding; the sun did not come up, and the moon kept still in her place

bbe@Habakkuk:3:11 @At the light of your arrows they went away, at the shining of your polished spear.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:12 @You went stepping through the land in wrath, crushing the nations in your passion.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:13 @You went out for the salvation of your people, for the salvation of the one on whom your holy oil was put; wounding the head of the family of the evil-doer, uncovering the base even to the neck. Selah.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:14 @You have put your spears through his head, his horsemen were sent in flight like dry stems; they had joy in driving away the poor, in making a meal of them secretly.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:15 @The feet of your horses were on the sea, on the mass of great waters.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:16 @Hearing it, my inner parts were moved, and my lips were shaking at the sound; my bones became feeble, and my steps were uncertain under me: I gave sounds of grief in the day of trouble, when his forces came up against the people in bands.

bbe@Habakkuk:3:17 @For though the fig-tree has no flowers, and there is no fruit on the vine, and work on the olive comes to nothing, and the fields give no food; and the flock is cut off from its resting-place, and there is no herd in the cattle-house:

bbe@Zephaniah:1:11 @Because of the downfall of all the people of Canaan: all those who were weighted down with silver have been cut off.

bbe@Zephaniah:1:13 @And their wealth will be violently taken away, and their houses will be made waste: they will go on building houses and never living in them, and planting vine-gardens but not drinking the wine from them.

bbe@Zephaniah:1:16 @A day of sounding the horn and the war-cry against the walled towns and the high towers.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:6 @I have had the nations cut off, their towers are broken down; I have made their streets a waste so that no one goes through them: destruction has overtaken their towns, so that there is no man living in them.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:11 @In that day you will have no shame on account of all the things in which you did evil against me: for then I will take away from among you those who were lifted up in pride, and you will no longer be lifted up with pride in my holy mountain.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:15 @The Lord has taken away those who were judging you, he has sent your haters far away: the King of Israel, even the Lord, is among you: you will have no more fear of evil.

bbe@Haggai:1:9 @You were looking for much, and it came to little; and when you got it into your house, I took it away with a breath. Why? says the Lord of armies. Because of my house which is a waste, while every man takes care of the house which is his.

bbe@Haggai:1:12 @Then Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all the rest of the people, gave ear to the voice of the Lord their God and to the words of Haggai the prophet, because the Lord their God had sent him, and the people were in fear before the Lord.

bbe@Haggai:1:15 @On the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.

bbe@Haggai:2:1 @In the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying,

bbe@Haggai:2:10 @On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying,

bbe@Haggai:2:12 @If anyone has some holy flesh folded in the skirt of his robe, will bread or soup or wine or oil or any other food be made holy if touched by his skirt? And the priests answering said, No.

bbe@Haggai:2:13 @Then Haggai said, Will any of these be made unclean by the touch of one who is unclean through touching a dead body? And the priests answering said, It will be made unclean.

bbe@Haggai:2:16 @How, when anyone came to a store of twenty measures, there were only ten: when anyone went to the wine-store to get fifty vessels full, there were only twenty.

bbe@Haggai:2:17 @And I sent burning and wasting and a rain of ice-drops on all the works of your hands; but still you were not turned to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Haggai:2:18 @And now, give thought; looking on from this day, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the time when the base of the Lord's house was put in its place, give thought to it.

bbe@Haggai:2:20 @And the word of the Lord came a second time to Haggai, on the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,

bbe@Haggai:2:22 @Overturning the power of kingdoms; and I will send destruction on the strength of the kingdoms of the nations; by me war-carriages will be overturned with those who are in them; and the horses and the horsemen will come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.

bbe@Haggai:2:23 @In that day, says the Lord of armies, I will take you, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, says the Lord, and will make you as a jewelled ring: for I have taken you to be mine, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Zechariah:1:7 @On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,

bbe@Zechariah:1:8 @I saw in the night a man on a red horse, between the mountains in the valley, and at his back were horses, red, black, white, and of mixed colours.

bbe@Zechariah:1:10 @And the man who was between the mountains, answering me, said, These are those whom the Lord has sent to go up and down through the earth.

bbe@Zechariah:1:11 @And the man who was between the mountains, answering, said to the angel of the Lord, We have gone up and down through the earth, and all the earth is quiet and at rest.

bbe@Zechariah:1:12 @Then the angel of the Lord, answering, said, O Lord of armies, how long will it be before you have mercy on Jerusalem and on the towns of Judah against which your wrath has been burning for seventy years?

bbe@Zechariah:1:13 @And the Lord gave an answer in good and comforting words to the angel who was talking to me.

bbe@Zechariah:2:3 @And the angel who was talking to me went out, and another angel went out, and, meeting him,

bbe@Zechariah:2:9 @For at the shaking of my hand over them, their goods will be taken by those who were their servants: and you will see that the Lord of armies has sent me.

bbe@Zechariah:3:4 @And he made answer and said to those who were there before him, Take the unclean robes off him, and let him be clothed in clean robes;

bbe@Zechariah:4:4 @And I made answer and said to the angel who was talking to me, What are these, my lord?

bbe@Zechariah:4:5 @Then the angel who was talking to me, answering me, said, Have you no knowledge of what these are? And I said, No, my lord.

bbe@Zechariah:4:6 @This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by force or by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Zechariah:4:10 @For who has had a poor opinion of the day of small things? for they will be glad when they see the weighted measuring-line in the hand of Zerubbabel

bbe@Zechariah:4:11 @And I made answer and said to him, What are these two olive-trees on the right side of the light-support and on the left?

bbe@Zechariah:4:12 @And answering a second time, I said to him, What are these two olive branches, through whose gold pipes the oil is drained out?

bbe@Zechariah:4:13 @And he said in answer to me, Have you no knowledge what these are? And I said, No, my lord.

bbe@Zechariah:5:2 @And he said to me, What do you see? And I said, A roll going through the air; it is twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.

bbe@Zechariah:5:5 @And the angel who was talking to me went out and said to me, Let your eyes be lifted up now, and see the ephah which is going out.

bbe@Zechariah:5:8 @And he said, This is Sin; and pushing her down into the ephah, he put the weight of lead on the mouth of it.

bbe@Zechariah:5:9 @And lifting up my eyes I saw two women coming out, and the wind was in their wings; and they had wings like the wings of a stork: and they took the ephah, lifting it up between earth and heaven.

bbe@Zechariah:6:1 @And again lifting up my eyes I saw four war-carriages coming out from between the two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.

bbe@Zechariah:6:2 @In the first war-carriage were red horses; and in the second, black horses;

bbe@Zechariah:6:4 @And I made answer and said to the angel who was talking to me, What are these, my lord?

bbe@Zechariah:6:5 @And the angel, answering, said to me, These go out to the four winds of heaven from their place before the Lord of all the earth.

bbe@Zechariah:6:6 @The carriage in which are the black horses goes in the direction of the north country; the white go to the west; and those of mixed colour go in the direction of the south country.

bbe@Zechariah:6:7 @And the red ones go to the east; and they made request that they might go up and down through the earth: and he said, Go up and down through the earth. So they went up and down through the earth.

bbe@Zechariah:6:10 @Take the offerings of those who went away as prisoners, from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, and from the family of Josiah, the son of Zephaniah, who have come from Babylon;

bbe@Zechariah:6:13 @And he will be the builder of the Temple of the Lord; and the glory will be his, and he will take his place as ruler on the seat of power; and Joshua will be a priest at his right hand, and between them there will be a design of peace.

bbe@Zechariah:7:3 @And to say to the priests of the house of the Lord of armies and to the prophets, Am I to go on weeping in the fifth month, separating myself as I have done in past years?

bbe@Zechariah:7:5 @Say to all the people of the land and to the priests, When you went without food and gave yourselves to grief in the fifth and the seventh months for these seventy years, did you ever do it because of me?

bbe@Zechariah:7:7 @Are not these the words which the Lord said to you by the earlier prophets, when Jerusalem was full of people and wealth, and the towns round about her and the South and the Lowland were peopled?

bbe@Zechariah:7:14 @But with a storm-wind I sent them in flight among all the nations of whom they had no knowledge. So the land was waste after them, so that no man went through or came back: for they had made waste the desired land.

bbe@Zechariah:8:7 @This is what the Lord of armies has said: See, I will be the saviour of my people from the east country, and from the west country;

bbe@Zechariah:8:10 @For before those days there was no payment for a man's work, or for the use of a beast, and there was no peace for him who went out or him who came in, because of the attacker: for I had every man turned against his neighbour.

bbe@Zechariah:8:13 @And it will come about that, as you were a curse among the nations, O children of Judah and children of Israel, so I will give you salvation and you will be a blessing: have no fear and let your hands be strong.

bbe@Zechariah:8:23 @This is what the Lord of armies has said: In those days, ten men from all the languages of the nations will put out their hands and take a grip of the skirt of him who is a Jew, saying, We will go with you, for it has come to our ears that God is with you.

bbe@Zechariah:9:2 @As well as Hamath, which is by its limit, and Tyre and Zidon, because they are very wise.

bbe@Zechariah:9:4 @See, the Lord will take away her heritage, overturning her power in the sea; and she will be burned up with fire.

bbe@Zechariah:9:7 @And I will take away his blood from his mouth, and his disgusting things from between his teeth; and some of his people will be kept for our God: and he will be as a family in Judah, and Ekron as one living in Jerusalem.

bbe@Zechariah:9:16 @And the Lord their God will be their saviour in that day, giving them food like the flock of his people: for they will be like the jewels of a crown shining over his land.

bbe@Zechariah:10:1 @Make your request to the Lord for rain in the time of the spring rains, even to the Lord who makes the thunder-flames; and he will give them showers of rain, to every man grass in the field.

bbe@Zechariah:10:6 @And I will make the children of Judah strong, and I will be the saviour of the children of Joseph, and I will make them come back again, for I have had mercy on them: they will be as if I had not given them up: for I am the Lord their God and I will give them an answer.

bbe@Zechariah:10:8 @With the sound of the pipe I will get them together; for I have given the price to make them free: and they will be increased as they were increased.

bbe@Zechariah:10:11 @And they will go through the sea of Egypt, and all the deep waters of the Nile will become dry: and the pride of Assyria will be made low, and the power of Egypt will be taken away.

bbe@Zechariah:11:5 @Whose owners put them to death and have no sense of sin; and those who get a price for them say, May the Lord be praised for I have much wealth: and the keepers of the flock have no pity for them.

bbe@Zechariah:11:8 @And in one month I put an end to the three keepers of the flock; for my soul was tired of them, and their souls were disgusted with me.

bbe@Zechariah:11:11 @And it was broken on that day: and the sheep-traders, who were watching me, were certain that it was the word of the Lord

bbe@Zechariah:11:12 @And I said to them, If it seems good to you, give me my payment; and if not, do not give it. So they gave me my payment by weight, thirty shekels of silver.

bbe@Zechariah:11:14 @Then I took my other rod, the one named Bands, cutting it in two, so that the relation of brothers between Judah and Israel might be broken.

bbe@Zechariah:11:16 @For see, I will put a sheep-keeper over the land, who will have no care for that which is cut off, and will not go in search of the wanderers, or make well what is broken, and he will not give food to that which is ill, but he will take for his food the flesh of the fat, and let their feet be broken.

bbe@Zechariah:12:3 @And it will come about in that day that I will make Jerusalem a stone of great weight for all the peoples; all those who take it up will be badly wounded; and all the nations of the earth will come together against it.

bbe@Zechariah:12:10 @And I will send down on the family of David and on the people of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of prayer; and their eyes will be turned to the one who was wounded by their hands: and they will be weeping for him as for an only son, and their grief for him will be bitter, like the grief of one sorrowing for his oldest son.

bbe@Zechariah:12:11 @In that day there will be a great weeping in Jerusalem, like the weeping of Hadad-rimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

bbe@Zechariah:12:12 @And the land will give itself to weeping, every family separately; the family of David by themselves, and their wives by themselves; the family of Nathan by themselves, and their wives by themselves;

bbe@Zechariah:13:6 @And if anyone says to him, What are these wounds between your hands? then he will say, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.

bbe@Zechariah:13:9 @And I will make the third part go through the fire, cleaning them as silver is made clean, and testing them as gold is tested: and they will make their prayer to me and I will give them an answer: I will say, It is my people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.

bbe@Zechariah:14:4 @And in that day his feet will be on the Mount of Olives, which is opposite Jerusalem on the east, and the Mount of Olives will be parted in the middle to the east and to the west, forming a very great valley; and half the mountain will be moved to the north and half of it to the south.

bbe@Zechariah:14:5 @And the valley will be stopped... and you will go in flight as you went in flight from the earth-shock in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah: and the Lord my God will come, and all his holy ones with him.

bbe@Zechariah:14:8 @And on that day living waters will go out from Jerusalem; half of them flowing to the sea on the east and half to the sea on the west: in summer and in winter it will be so.

bbe@Zechariah:14:10 @And all the land will become like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she will be lifted up and be living in her place; from the doorway of Benjamin to the place of the first doorway, to the doorway of the angle, and from the tower of Hananel to the king's wine-crushing places, men will be living in her.

bbe@Zechariah:14:14 @And even Judah will be fighting against Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the nations round about will be massed together, a great store of gold and silver and clothing.

bbe@Malachi:1:4 @Though Edom says, We are crushed down but we will come back, building up the waste places; this is what the Lord of armies has said: They may put up buildings, but I will have them pulled down; and they will be named The land of evil-doing, and The people against whom the Lord keeps his wrath for ever.

bbe@Malachi:1:6 @A son gives honour to his father, and a servant has fear of his master: if then I am a father, where is my honour? and if I am a master, where is the fear of me? says the Lord of armies to you, O priests, who give no value to my name. And you say, How have we not given value to your name?

bbe@Malachi:1:7 @You put unclean bread on my altar. And you say, How have we made it unclean? By your saying, The table of the Lord is of no value.

bbe@Malachi:1:10 @If only there was one among you who would see that the doors were shut, so that you might not put a light to the fire on my altar for nothing! I have no pleasure in you, says the Lord of armies, and I will not take an offering from your hands.

bbe@Malachi:1:13 @And you say, See, what a weariness it is! and you let out your breath at it, says the Lord of armies; and you have given what has been cut about by beasts, and what is damaged in its feet and ill; this is the offering you give: will this be pleasing to me from your hands? says the Lord.

bbe@Malachi:2:10 @Have we not all one father? has not one God made us? why are we, every one of us, acting falsely to his brother, putting shame on the agreement of our fathers?

bbe@Malachi:2:13 @And this again you do: covering the altar of the Lord with weeping and with grief, so that he gives no more thought to the offering, and does not take it with pleasure from your hand.

bbe@Malachi:2:14 @But you say, For what reason? Because the Lord has been a witness between you and the wife of your early years, to whom you have been untrue, though she is your friend and the wife to whom you have given your word.

bbe@Malachi:2:17 @You have made the Lord tired with your words. And still you say, How have we made him tired? By your saying, Everyone who does evil is good in the eyes of the Lord, and he has delight in them; or, Where is God the judge?

bbe@Malachi:3:7 @From the days of your fathers you have been turned away from my rules and have not kept them. Come back to me, and I will come back to you, says the Lord of armies. But you say, How are we to come back?

bbe@Malachi:3:8 @Will a man keep back from God what is right? But you have kept back what is mine. But you say, What have we kept back from you? Tenths and offerings.

bbe@Malachi:3:13 @Your words have been strong against me, says the Lord. And still you say, What have we said against you?

bbe@Malachi:3:14 @You have said, It is no use worshipping God: what profit have we had from keeping his orders, and going in clothing of sorrow before the Lord of armies?

bbe@Malachi:3:15 @And now to us the men of pride seem happy; yes, the evil-doers are doing well; they put God to the test and are safe.
