lesserot@Genesis:1:1 @ In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:1:2 @ And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God was waving over the face of the waters.

lesserot@Genesis:1:3 @ And God said, Let there be light; and there was light.

lesserot@Genesis:1:4 @ And God saw the light that it was good; and God divided between the light and the darkness.

lesserot@Genesis:1:5 @ And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And it was evening and it was morning, the first day.

lesserot@Genesis:1:6 @ And God said, Let there be an expansion in the midst of the waters, and let it divide between waters and waters.

lesserot@Genesis:1:7 @ And God made the expansion, and divided between the waters which were under the expansion and the waters which were above the expansion: and it was so.

lesserot@Genesis:1:8 @ And God called the expansion Heaven. And it was evening and it was morning, the second day.

lesserot@Genesis:1:9 @ And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land be visible: and it was so.

lesserot@Genesis:1:10 @ And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters he called Seas: and God saw that it was good.

lesserot@Genesis:1:11 @ And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, herbs yielding seed, fruit–trees yielding fruit after their kind, in which its seed is upon the earth: and it was so.

lesserot@Genesis:1:12 @ And the earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees yielding fruit, in which its seed is after their kind: and God saw that it was good.

lesserot@Genesis:1:13 @ And it was evening and it was morning, the third day.

lesserot@Genesis:1:14 @ And God said, Let there be lights in the expansion of the heaven to divide between the day and the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years;

lesserot@Genesis:1:15 @ And let them be for lights in the expansion of the heaven, to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

lesserot@Genesis:1:16 @ And God made the two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; and the stars.

lesserot@Genesis:1:17 @ And God set them in the expansion of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

lesserot@Genesis:1:18 @ And to rule by day and by night, and to divide between the light and the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

lesserot@Genesis:1:21 @ And God created the great sea–monsters, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly after their kind, and every winged fowl after its kind: and God saw that it was good.

lesserot@Genesis:1:22 @ And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the fowl multiply on the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:1:23 @ And it was evening and it was morning, the fifth day.

lesserot@Genesis:1:28 @ And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heaven, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:1:29 @ And God said, Behold I have given unto you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree on which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food.

lesserot@Genesis:1:30 @ And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heaven, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, every green herb for food: and it was so.

lesserot@Genesis:1:31 @ And God saw every thing that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And it was evening and it was morning, the sixth day.

lesserot@Genesis:2:1 @ Thus were finished the heavens and the earth, and all their host.

lesserot@Genesis:2:2 @ And God had finished on the seventh day his work which he had made, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

lesserot@Genesis:2:3 @ And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it; because thereon he had rested from all his work which God had created in making it.

lesserot@Genesis:2:4 @ These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, on the day that the Lord God made earth and heaven.

lesserot@Genesis:2:5 @ And every plant of the field was not yet on the earth, and every herb of the field had not yet grown; for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and man was not yet there to till the ground.

lesserot@Genesis:2:6 @ But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

lesserot@Genesis:2:7 @ And the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being.

lesserot@Genesis:2:8 @ And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden to the eastward, and he put there the man whom he had formed.

lesserot@Genesis:2:9 @ And the Lord God caused to grow out of the ground every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food; and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

lesserot@Genesis:2:10 @ And a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it was parted, and became four principal streams.

lesserot@Genesis:2:11 @ The name of the first is Pishon, the same which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

lesserot@Genesis:2:12 @ And the gold of that land is good; there is the bdellium and the onyx stone.

lesserot@Genesis:2:13 @ And the name of the second river is Gihon, the same which compasseth the whole land of Cush.

lesserot@Genesis:2:14 @ And the name of the third river is Hiddekel, the same which floweth towards the east of Assyria; and the fourth river is the Euphrates.

lesserot@Genesis:2:15 @ And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden, to till it, and to keep it.

lesserot@Genesis:2:16 @ And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat;

lesserot@Genesis:2:17 @ But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for on the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

lesserot@Genesis:2:18 @ And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help suitable for him.

lesserot@Genesis:2:19 @ And the Lord God had formed out of the ground every beast of the field, and every fowl of the heaven, and he brought them unto the man to see what he would call them; and whatsoever the man would call every living creature, that should be its name.

lesserot@Genesis:2:20 @ And the man gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the heaven, and to every beast of the field; but for man there was not found a help suitable for him.

lesserot@Genesis:2:21 @ And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof.

lesserot@Genesis:2:22 @ And the Lord God formed the rib which he had taken from the man into a woman, and brought her unto the man.

lesserot@Genesis:2:23 @ And the man said, This time it is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; this shall be called Woman, because out of Man was this one taken.

lesserot@Genesis:2:24 @ Therefore doth a man leave his father and his mother, and cleave unto his wife, and they become one flesh.

lesserot@Genesis:2:25 @ And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

lesserot@Genesis:3:1 @ Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made; and he said unto the woman, Hath God indeed said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

lesserot@Genesis:3:2 @ And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden;

lesserot@Genesis:3:3 @ But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

lesserot@Genesis:3:4 @ And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye will surely not die;

lesserot@Genesis:3:5 @ For God doth know, that, on the day ye eat thereof, your eyes will be opened, and ye will be as God, knowing good and evil.

lesserot@Genesis:3:6 @ And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat.

lesserot@Genesis:3:7 @ And the eyes of both of them were opened, and they felt that they were naked; and they sewed fig–leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

lesserot@Genesis:3:8 @ And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day; and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden.

lesserot@Genesis:3:9 @ And the Lord God called unto the man, and said unto him, Where art thou?

lesserot@Genesis:3:10 @ And he said, Thy voice I heard in the garden; and I was afraid, because I am naked; and I hid myself.

lesserot@Genesis:3:11 @ And he said, Who told thee that thou art naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?

lesserot@Genesis:3:12 @ And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.

lesserot@Genesis:3:13 @ And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.

lesserot@Genesis:3:14 @ And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, be thou cursed above all the cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

lesserot@Genesis:3:15 @ And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt wound his heel.

lesserot@Genesis:3:16 @ Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy pain and thy conception; in pain shalt thou bring forth children; and for thy husband shall be thy desire, but he shall rule over thee.

lesserot@Genesis:3:17 @ And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it; cursed be the ground for thy sake; in pain shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.

lesserot@Genesis:3:18 @ And thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herbs of the field.

lesserot@Genesis:3:19 @ In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground, for out of it wast thou taken; for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

lesserot@Genesis:3:20 @ And the man called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.

lesserot@Genesis:3:21 @ And the Lord God made unto Adam and to his wife coats of skins, and clothed them.

lesserot@Genesis:3:22 @ And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever––

lesserot@Genesis:3:23 @ Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.

lesserot@Genesis:3:24 @ So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden the Cherubim, and the flaming sword which revolveth, to guard the way to the tree of life.

lesserot@Genesis:4:1 @ And the man knew Eve his wife: and she conceived, and bore Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:4:2 @ And she bore again, his brother, Abel; and Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.

lesserot@Genesis:4:3 @ And it came to pass in process of time, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground and offering unto the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:4:4 @ And Abel––he also brought of the firstlings of his flock, and of the fattest thereof; and the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering;

lesserot@Genesis:4:5 @ But unto Cain and to his offering he had no respect; and it was very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance fell.

lesserot@Genesis:4:6 @ And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?

lesserot@Genesis:4:7 @ If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door; and unto thee is its desire, but thou canst rule over it.

lesserot@Genesis:4:8 @ And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.

lesserot@Genesis:4:9 @ And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel they brother? and he said, I know not; am I my brother’s keeper?

lesserot@Genesis:4:10 @ And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground.

lesserot@Genesis:4:11 @ And now be thou cursed from the ground, which hath opened its mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand:

lesserot@Genesis:4:12 @ When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield its strength unto thee; fugitive and vagabond shalt thou be on the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:4:13 @ And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear.

lesserot@Genesis:4:14 @ Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the ground; and from thy face shall I be hid; and if I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, it will come to pass, that every one that findeth me will slay me.

lesserot@Genesis:4:15 @ And the Lord said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him seven–fold. And the Lord set a sign unto Cain, that any one finding him should not kill him.

lesserot@Genesis:4:16 @ And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.

lesserot@Genesis:4:17 @ And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and bore Enoch; and he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch.

lesserot@Genesis:4:18 @ And unto Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begat Mechujael: and Mechujael begat Methushael; and Methushael begat Lemech.

lesserot@Genesis:4:19 @ And Lemech took unto himself two wives, the name of one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.

lesserot@Genesis:4:20 @ And Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and have cattle.

lesserot@Genesis:4:21 @ And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all such as play on the harp and guitar.

lesserot@Genesis:4:22 @ And Zillah, she also bore Tubal–cain, an artificer in every article of copper and iron; and the sister of Tubal–cain was Naamah.

lesserot@Genesis:4:23 @ And Lemech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; ye wives of Lemech, hearken unto my speech; for I have slain a man to my own wounding, and a young–man to my hurt.

lesserot@Genesis:4:24 @ If Cain shall be avenged seven–fold, truly Lemech seventy and seven–fold.

lesserot@Genesis:4:25 @ And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son, and called his name Sheth; for God hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.

lesserot@Genesis:4:26 @ And to Sheth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enosh: then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:5:1 @ This is the book of the generations of Adam. On the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him:

lesserot@Genesis:5:2 @ Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, on the day when they were created.

lesserot@Genesis:6:7 @ And the Lord said, I will destroy the man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man and beast, and the creeping things and the fowls of the heaven; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

lesserot@Genesis:6:8 @ But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:6:16 @ A window shalt thou make to the ark, and thou shalt finish it above, to be one cubit broad, and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

lesserot@Genesis:6:17 @ And as regards myself, behold, I will bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under the heavens; every thing that is on the earth shall perish.

lesserot@Genesis:6:18 @ But I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives with thee.

lesserot@Genesis:7:3 @ Also of the fowls of the heaven, seven pairs of each, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:7:4 @ For after only seven days more, I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights: and I will blot out every living substance that I have made from off the face of the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:7:6 @ And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:7:7 @ And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.

lesserot@Genesis:7:8 @ Of the clean beasts, and of the beasts that are not clean, and of the fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,

lesserot@Genesis:7:9 @ One pair of each went in unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

lesserot@Genesis:7:10 @ And it came to pass, after the seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:7:11 @ In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on this same day, were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

lesserot@Genesis:7:12 @ And the rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

lesserot@Genesis:7:13 @ On that self–same day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

lesserot@Genesis:7:14 @ They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird, every thing that hath wings.

lesserot@Genesis:7:15 @ And they went in unto Noah into the ark, one pair of each, of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.

lesserot@Genesis:7:16 @ And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and then the Lord shut him in.

lesserot@Genesis:7:17 @ And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:7:18 @ And the waters prevailed, and increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark floated along upon the face of the waters.

lesserot@Genesis:7:19 @ And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high mountains that are under the whole heavens were covered.

lesserot@Genesis:7:20 @ Fifteen cubits above them did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.

lesserot@Genesis:7:21 @ And all flesh perished that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man.

lesserot@Genesis:7:22 @ All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that were on the dry land, died.

lesserot@Genesis:7:23 @ And it swept off every living substance which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and creeping things, and fowls of the heaven; and they were swept from the earth; and Noah only was left, together with those that were with him in the ark.

lesserot@Genesis:7:24 @ And the waters prevailed upon the earth one hundred and fifty days.

lesserot@Genesis:8:1 @ And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark: and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters were assuaged;

lesserot@Genesis:8:2 @ The fountains also of the deep, and the windows of heaven were stopped; and the rain from heaven was restrained.

lesserot@Genesis:8:3 @ And the waters returned from off the earth, gradually returning; and the waters were abated after the end of the hundred and fifty days.

lesserot@Genesis:8:4 @ And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.

lesserot@Genesis:8:5 @ And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen;

lesserot@Genesis:8:6 @ And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made;

lesserot@Genesis:8:8 @ He then sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground.

lesserot@Genesis:8:9 @ But the dove found no resting–place for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him unto the ark; for there was water on the face of the whole earth; then he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her into the ark.

lesserot@Genesis:8:10 @ And he stayed yet another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.

lesserot@Genesis:8:11 @ And the dove came in to him at the time of the evening; and, lo, an olive–leaf plucked off was in her mouth; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:8:12 @ And he stayed yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned not again unto him any more.

lesserot@Genesis:8:13 @ And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, that the waters were dried up from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.

lesserot@Genesis:8:14 @ And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth perfectly dried up.

lesserot@Genesis:8:15 @ And God spoke unto Noah, saying,

lesserot@Genesis:8:16 @ Go forth from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons’ wives with thee.

lesserot@Genesis:8:17 @ Every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, bring forth with thee; that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:8:18 @ And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him.

lesserot@Genesis:8:19 @ Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their families, went forth out of the ark.

lesserot@Genesis:8:20 @ And Noah built an altar unto the Lord, and he took of every clean cattle, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt–offerings on the altar.

lesserot@Genesis:8:21 @ And the Lord smelled the sweet savour; and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for the sake of man; although the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth: neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.

lesserot@Genesis:8:22 @ All the while the earth remaineth, seed–time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.

lesserot@Genesis:9:1 @ And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:9:2 @ And the fear of you, and the dread of you, shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the heaven; whatever is that moveth upon the earth, and all the fishes of the sea, are delivered into your hand.

lesserot@Genesis:9:3 @ Every moving thing that liveth shall be yours for food; even as the green herbs have I given you all things.

lesserot@Genesis:9:4 @ But flesh in which its life is, which is its blood, shall ye not eat.

lesserot@Genesis:9:5 @ Your blood, however, on which your lives depend, will I require: at the hand of every beast will I require it; and at the hand of man, at the hand of every man’s brother will I require the life of man.

lesserot@Genesis:9:6 @ Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God made he man.

lesserot@Genesis:9:7 @ And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly on the earth, and multiply thereon.

lesserot@Genesis:9:8 @ And God spoke unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,

lesserot@Genesis:9:9 @ And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;

lesserot@Genesis:9:10 @ And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you, from all those that go out of the ark, for every beast of the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:9:11 @ And I will establish my covenant with you; and all flesh shall not be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there be any more a flood to destroy the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:9:12 @ And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations.

lesserot@Genesis:9:13 @ My bow I do set in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of the covenant between me and the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:9:14 @ And it shall come to pass, that, when I bring a cloud over the earth, and the bow shall be seen in the cloud,

lesserot@Genesis:9:15 @ I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

lesserot@Genesis:9:16 @ And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature, of all flesh, that is upon the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:9:17 @ And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:9:20 @ And Noah, who was a husbandman, began his work, and he planted a vineyard.

lesserot@Genesis:9:21 @ And he drank of the wine, and became drunken; and he uncovered himself within his tent.

lesserot@Genesis:9:22 @ And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told it his two brothers without.

lesserot@Genesis:9:23 @ And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon the shoulders of both of them, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were turned backward, and they saw not their father’s nakedness.

lesserot@Genesis:9:24 @ And Noah awoke from his wine, and discovered what his younger son had done unto him.

lesserot@Genesis:9:25 @ And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.

lesserot@Genesis:10:9 @ He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:10:10 @ And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

lesserot@Genesis:11:2 @ And it came to pass, as they journeyed toward the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.

lesserot@Genesis:11:3 @ And they said to one another, Go to, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly. And thus the brick served them for stone, and slime served them for mortar.

lesserot@Genesis:11:4 @ And they said, Go to, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower, the top of which may reach unto heaven; and let us make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

lesserot@Genesis:11:5 @ And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man were building.

lesserot@Genesis:11:6 @ And the Lord said, Behold, it is one people, and they have all one language, and this is the first thing they undertake to do; and now shall they not be restrained in all which they have imagined to do?

lesserot@Genesis:11:8 @ So the Lord scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth; and they left off to build the city.

lesserot@Genesis:11:9 @ Therefore is the name of it called Babel, because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth; and from there did the Lord scatter them abroad over the face of all the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:12:7 @ And the Lord appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar unto the Lord, who had appeared unto him.

lesserot@Genesis:12:8 @ And he removed from there unto the mountain on the east of Beth–el, and pitched his tent, having Beth–el on the west, and ‘Ai on the east; and he built there an altar unto the Lord, and called upon the name of the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:12:9 @ And Abram journeyed farther, still going on toward the south.

lesserot@Genesis:12:10 @ And there arose a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.

lesserot@Genesis:12:11 @ And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a woman of handsome appearance:

lesserot@Genesis:12:12 @ And it may come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they will say, This is his wife; and they may kill me, but thee they will save alive.

lesserot@Genesis:12:13 @ Say then, I pray thee, thou art my sister, that it may go well with me for thy sake, and my soul live because of thee.

lesserot@Genesis:12:15 @ The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaoh’s house.

lesserot@Genesis:12:16 @ And he did well to Abram for her sake; and he received sheep, and oxen, and he–asses, and men–servants, and maid–servants, and she–asses, and camels.

lesserot@Genesis:12:17 @ But the Lord plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram’s wife.

lesserot@Genesis:12:18 @ And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this thou hast done unto me? Why didst thou not tell me that she is thy wife?

lesserot@Genesis:12:19 @ Why saidst thou, She is my sister? and so I took her to me for a wife; now, therefore, behold, here is thy wife, take her, and go thy way.

lesserot@Genesis:12:20 @ And Pharaoh commanded some men concerning him, who accompanied him and his wife, and all that he had.

lesserot@Genesis:13:1 @ And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.

lesserot@Genesis:13:2 @ And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

lesserot@Genesis:13:3 @ And he went on his journeys from the south even to Beth–el, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth–el and ‘Ai;

lesserot@Genesis:13:4 @ Unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first; and Abram called there on the name of the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:13:5 @ And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.

lesserot@Genesis:13:6 @ And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together; for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together.

lesserot@Genesis:13:7 @ And there arose a strife between the herdmen of Abram’s cattle, and the herdmen of Lot’s cattle; and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land.

lesserot@Genesis:13:8 @ And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we are near relatives.

lesserot@Genesis:13:9 @ Is not the whole land before thee? Separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right, then I will go to the left.

lesserot@Genesis:13:10 @ And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere; before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, till thou comest unto Zoar.

lesserot@Genesis:13:11 @ Then Lot chose himself all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east; and they separated themselves the one from the other.

lesserot@Genesis:13:12 @ Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan; and Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tents, till close to Sodom.

lesserot@Genesis:13:13 @ But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly.

lesserot@Genesis:13:14 @ And the Lord said unto Abram, after Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thy eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward;

lesserot@Genesis:13:15 @ For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed forever.

lesserot@Genesis:13:16 @ And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth; so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.

lesserot@Genesis:13:17 @ Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for unto thee will I give it.

lesserot@Genesis:13:18 @ Then Abram pitched his tent, and came and dwelt in the grove of Mamre, which is in Hebron; and he built there an altar unto the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not Abram; I am thy shield, thy reward shall be exceedingly great.

lesserot@Genesis:15:2 @ And Abram said, Lord God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?

lesserot@Genesis:15:3 @ And Abram said, Behold to me thou hast given no seed; and lo, one born in my house will be my heir.

lesserot@Genesis:15:4 @ And behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This one shall not be thy heir; but he that shall come forth out of thy own bowels shall be thy heir.

lesserot@Genesis:15:6 @ And he believed in the Lord; and he accounted it to him for righteousness.

lesserot@Genesis:15:7 @ And he said unto him, I am the Lord that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give unto thee this land, to inherit it.

lesserot@Genesis:22:17 @ That I will greatly bless thee, and I will exceedingly multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the seashore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;

lesserot@Genesis:22:18 @ And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because that thou hast obeyed my voice.

lesserot@Genesis:22:19 @ And Abraham returned unto his young men; and they rose up, and went together to Beer–sheba; and Abraham dwelt in Beer–sheba.

lesserot@Genesis:22:20 @ And it came to pass after these things, that it was told to Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she also, hath born children unto Nachor thy brother;

lesserot@Genesis:23:4 @ A stranger and a sojourner I am with you; give me a possession for a burying–place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.

lesserot@Genesis:23:5 @ And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him:

lesserot@Genesis:23:6 @ Hear us, my lord; a prince of God thou art among us; in the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre, so that thou mayest bury thy dead.

lesserot@Genesis:23:7 @ And Abraham stood up and bowed himself to the people of the land, to the children of Heth.

lesserot@Genesis:23:8 @ And he spoke with them, saying, If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and intercede for me with Ephron the son of Zochar,

lesserot@Genesis:23:9 @ That he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which is his, which is at the end of his field; for as much money as it is worth he shall give it me, for a possession as a burying–place amongst you.

lesserot@Genesis:23:11 @ Nay, my lord, hear me: the field I give to thee, and the cave that is therein, I give it to thee; in the presence of the sons of my people do I give it to thee; bury thy dead.

lesserot@Genesis:23:12 @ And Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land.

lesserot@Genesis:23:13 @ And he spoke to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, saying, But if thou wouldst only hear me; I will give the money for the field, take it off me, and I will bury my dead there.

lesserot@Genesis:23:14 @ And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him,

lesserot@Genesis:23:15 @ My lord, hearken unto me: a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between me and thee? only bury thy dead.

lesserot@Genesis:23:16 @ And Abraham understood the meaning of Ephron; and Abraham weighed out to Ephron the silver which he had named in the hearing of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current with the merchant.

lesserot@Genesis:23:17 @ And the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, and the cave which was therein, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all its borders round about, were made sure

lesserot@Genesis:23:18 @ Unto Abraham for a bought possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all that went in at the gate of his city.

lesserot@Genesis:24:6 @ And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou, that thou bring not my son thither again.

lesserot@Genesis:24:7 @ The Lord, the God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house, and from the land of my birth, and who spoke unto me, and who swore unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land: he will send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from there.

lesserot@Genesis:24:8 @ But if the woman should not be willing to follow thee, then shalt, thou be clear from this my oath: only my son thou shalt not bring thither again.

lesserot@Genesis:24:10 @ And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed, with all kinds of precious things of his master in his hand; and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nachor.

lesserot@Genesis:24:11 @ And he made the camels to kneel down without the city by a well of water at the time of the evening, at the time that the women go out to draw water.

lesserot@Genesis:24:12 @ And he said, O Lord, the God of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send me good speed this day, and deal kindly with my master Abraham.

lesserot@Genesis:24:13 @ Behold, I stand by the well of water: and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water.

lesserot@Genesis:24:46 @ And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, Drink, and also to thy camels I will give drink; and I drank, and she made the camels drink also.

lesserot@Genesis:24:47 @ And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nachor’s son, whom Milcah bore unto him: and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands.

lesserot@Genesis:24:48 @ And I bowed down my head, and prostrated myself before the Lord; and I blessed the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me in the right way to take the daughter of my master’s brother for his son.

lesserot@Genesis:24:49 @ And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me: and if not, tell me, that I may turn to the right, or to the left.

lesserot@Genesis:24:50 @ Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing hath proceeded from the Lord; we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.

lesserot@Genesis:24:51 @ Behold, Rebekah is before thee, take her, and go, and let her be the wife of thy master’s son, as the Lord hath spoken.

lesserot@Genesis:24:59 @ And thereupon they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his men.

lesserot@Genesis:24:60 @ And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of myriads, and let thy seed possess the gate of those who hate them.

lesserot@Genesis:24:61 @ And Rebekah arose with her maidens, and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man; and the servant took Rebekah, and went his way.

lesserot@Genesis:24:62 @ And Isaac came from a walk to the well Lachai–roi; for he dwelt in the south country;

lesserot@Genesis:24:63 @ And Isaac was gone out to meditate in the field toward evening; and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, camels were coming.

lesserot@Genesis:24:64 @ And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and she saw Isaac; and she alighted off the camel.

lesserot@Genesis:24:65 @ And she said unto the servant, Who is yonder man that walketh in the field toward us? And the servant said, This is my master; therefore she took a vail, and covered herself.

lesserot@Genesis:24:67 @ And Isaac brought her into the tent of Sarah his mother, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife, and he loved her; and Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.

lesserot@Genesis:25:5 @ And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.

lesserot@Genesis:25:6 @ But unto the sons of the concubines that Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts; and he sent them away from Isaac his son, while he was yet living, eastward, unto the east country.

lesserot@Genesis:25:7 @ And these are the days of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived, one hundred seventy and five years.

lesserot@Genesis:25:8 @ Then Abraham departed this life, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.

lesserot@Genesis:25:9 @ And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zochar the Hittite, which is before Mamre;

lesserot@Genesis:25:10 @ The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, with Sarah his wife.

lesserot@Genesis:25:11 @ And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lachai–roi.

lesserot@Genesis:25:12 @ Now theses are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s handmaid, bore unto Abraham.

lesserot@Genesis:25:13 @ And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the first–born of Ishmael, Nebayoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,

lesserot@Genesis:25:14 @ And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,

lesserot@Genesis:25:15 @ Chadad, and Tema, Yetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

lesserot@Genesis:25:16 @ These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.

lesserot@Genesis:25:17 @ And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, one hundred and thirty and seven years: and he departed this life and died; and was gathered unto his people.

lesserot@Genesis:25:18 @ And they dwelt from Chavilah unto Shur, that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: he dwelt in the presence of all his brethren.

lesserot@Genesis:25:19 @ And these are the generations of Isaac, the son of Abraham: Abraham begat Isaac.

lesserot@Genesis:25:20 @ And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian, of Padan–aram, the sister to Laban the Syrian, to himself as wife.

lesserot@Genesis:25:21 @ And Isaac entreated the Lord in behalf of his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was entreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

lesserot@Genesis:25:22 @ And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why did I desire this? And she went to inquire of the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:25:23 @ And the Lord said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.

lesserot@Genesis:25:24 @ And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

lesserot@Genesis:25:25 @ And the first came out red, all over like a hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.

lesserot@Genesis:25:26 @ And after that came his brother out, his hand holding on to Esau’s heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

lesserot@Genesis:25:27 @ And the boys grew up: and Esau was an expert hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.

lesserot@Genesis:25:28 @ And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison; but Rebekah loved Jacob.

lesserot@Genesis:25:29 @ And Jacob at one time boiled pottage, and Esau came from the field, and he was faint.

lesserot@Genesis:25:30 @ And Esau said to Jacob, Let me swallow down, I pray thee, some of that yonder red pottage, for I am faint; therefore was his name called Edom.

lesserot@Genesis:25:31 @ And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy right of first–born.

lesserot@Genesis:25:32 @ And Esau said, Behold, I am going to die; and what profit then can the right of first–born be to me?

lesserot@Genesis:25:33 @ And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he swore unto him, and he sold his right of first–born unto Jacob.

lesserot@Genesis:25:34 @ Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles, and he did eat and drink, and he rose up, and went his way; thus Esau despised the birthright.

lesserot@Genesis:26:1 @ And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham; and Isaac went unto Abimelech, the king of the Philistines, unto Gerar.

lesserot@Genesis:26:2 @ And the Lord appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of.

lesserot@Genesis:26:3 @ Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, will I give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I swore unto Abraham thy father;

lesserot@Genesis:26:4 @ And I will cause thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and I will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves.

lesserot@Genesis:26:5 @ Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

lesserot@Genesis:26:6 @ And Isaac dwelt in Gerar.

lesserot@Genesis:26:7 @ And the men of the place asked concerning his wife; and he said, She is my sister; for he feared to say, She is my wife; lest, the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah, because she is of a handsome appearance.

lesserot@Genesis:26:8 @ And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech, the king of the Philistines, looked out at a window, and saw, and behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.

lesserot@Genesis:26:9 @ And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she is thy wife: and how saidst thou, She is my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I thought, Perhaps I may die for her.

lesserot@Genesis:26:10 @ And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done unto us? How easily might one of the people have lain with thy wife, and thou wouldst have brought guiltiness upon us.

lesserot@Genesis:26:11 @ And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.

lesserot@Genesis:26:12 @ Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year a hundred–fold: so the Lord blessed him.

lesserot@Genesis:26:13 @ And the man became great, and went forward and grew, until he became very great;

lesserot@Genesis:26:14 @ And he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants; and the Philistines envied him.

lesserot@Genesis:26:15 @ And all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, these the Philistines stopped, and filled them with earth.

lesserot@Genesis:26:16 @ And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go away from us; for thou hast become much mightier than we.

lesserot@Genesis:26:17 @ And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.

lesserot@Genesis:26:18 @ And Isaac dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father, and which the Philistines had stopped after the death of Abraham; and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.

lesserot@Genesis:26:19 @ And the servants of Isaac dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.

lesserot@Genesis:26:20 @ And the herdmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac’s herdmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Essek; because they strove with him.

lesserot@Genesis:26:21 @ And they dug another well, and they strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah.

lesserot@Genesis:26:22 @ And he removed from there, and dug another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rechoboth, and he said, For now the Lord hath made room for us, and we shall increase in the land.

lesserot@Genesis:26:23 @ And he went up from there to Beer–sheba.

lesserot@Genesis:26:24 @ And the Lord appeared unto him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father; fear not, for I am with thee, and I will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for the sake of Abraham my servant.

lesserot@Genesis:26:25 @ And he built there an altar, and called upon the name of the Lord, and pitched there his tent: and the servants of Isaac dug there a well.

lesserot@Genesis:26:26 @ Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Achuzzath his friend, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.

lesserot@Genesis:26:27 @ And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore come ye to me, seeing that ye do hate me, and have sent me away from you?

lesserot@Genesis:26:28 @ And they said, We saw clearly that the Lord was with thee; and we said, Let there be now an oath between us and thee; and we will make a covenant with thee;

lesserot@Genesis:26:29 @ That thou shalt do us no hurt, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done unto thee nothing but good, and have sent thee away in peace: thou art now one blessed of the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:26:30 @ And he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.

lesserot@Genesis:26:31 @ And they rose up betimes in the morning, and they swore one to the other; and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.

lesserot@Genesis:26:32 @ And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dug, and they said unto him, We have found water.

lesserot@Genesis:26:33 @ And he called it Shibah: therefore is the name of the city Beer–sheba unto this day.

lesserot@Genesis:26:34 @ And when Esau was forty years old he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri, the Hittite, and Bahsemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite.

lesserot@Genesis:26:35 @ And they were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah.

lesserot@Genesis:27:1 @ And it came to pass, when Isaac was old, and his eyes were too dim to see, that he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I.

lesserot@Genesis:27:2 @ And he said, Behold now, I am grown old, I know not the day of my death:

lesserot@Genesis:27:3 @ Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and hunt for me some venison;

lesserot@Genesis:27:4 @ And make me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.

lesserot@Genesis:27:9 @ Go, I pray thee, to the flock, and fetch me from there two good kids; and I will make them savory food for thy father, such as he loveth:

lesserot@Genesis:27:10 @ And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat; for the sake that he may bless thee before his death.

lesserot@Genesis:27:11 @ And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man:

lesserot@Genesis:27:12 @ Peradventure my father will feel me, and I shall then seem to him as a deceiver; and I would bring upon me a curse, and not a blessing.

lesserot@Genesis:27:13 @ And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son; only obey my voice, and go fetch them to me.

lesserot@Genesis:27:14 @ And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savory food, such as his father loved.

lesserot@Genesis:27:15 @ And Rebekah took the goodly garments of her eldest son Esau, which were with her in the house, and clothed therewith Jacob her younger son;

lesserot@Genesis:27:16 @ And the skins of the kids she put upon his hands, and upon the smooth part of his neck;

lesserot@Genesis:27:17 @ And she gave the savory food and bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of Jacob her son.

lesserot@Genesis:27:20 @ And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the Lord thy God brought it before me.

lesserot@Genesis:27:21 @ And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou be truly my son Esau or not.

lesserot@Genesis:27:22 @ And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father, and he felt him; and he said, The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.

lesserot@Genesis:27:23 @ And he recognized him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau’s hands: so he blessed him.

lesserot@Genesis:27:24 @ And he said, Art thou indeed my son Esau? and he said I am.

lesserot@Genesis:27:25 @ And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat, and he brought him wine, and he drank.

lesserot@Genesis:27:27 @ And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his garments and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is the smell of the field which the Lord hath blessed.

lesserot@Genesis:27:29 @ Nations shall serve thee, and people bow down to thee; be lord over thy brethren, and thy mother’s sons shall bow down to thee; cursed be they that curse thee, and blessed be they that bless thee.

lesserot@Genesis:27:34 @ When Esau heard the words of his father, he uttered a great and exceedingly bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, also me, my father.

lesserot@Genesis:27:35 @ And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and took away thy blessing.

lesserot@Genesis:27:36 @ And he said, Hath he been therefore named Jacob, because he hath supplanted me these two times? my right of first–born he took away; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing: and he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me.

lesserot@Genesis:27:37 @ And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I endowed him: and what can I do now for thee, my son.

lesserot@Genesis:30:28 @ And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give them.

lesserot@Genesis:30:29 @ And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and what thy cattle hath become with me.

lesserot@Genesis:30:30 @ For it was a little which thou hadst before I came, and it is now increased into a multitude; and the Lord hath blessed thee since my coming; and now when shall I provide also for my own house?

lesserot@Genesis:30:31 @ And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me the least; if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep thy flock:

lesserot@Genesis:30:32 @ I will pass through all thy flock today, removing from there every speckled and spotted lamb, and every brown lamb among the sheep, and whatever is spotted and speckled among the goats; and such shall be after this my reward.

lesserot@Genesis:30:33 @ And my righteousness shall testify for me in time to come, when it shall come with my reward before thy face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.

lesserot@Genesis:30:34 @ And Laban said, Well, let it be according to thy word.

lesserot@Genesis:30:35 @ And he removed on that day the he–goats that were ring–streaked and spotted, and all the she–goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had some white on it, and all the brown among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.

lesserot@Genesis:30:36 @ And he put a space of three days’ journey between himself and Jacob; and Jacob fed the flocks of Laban that were left.

lesserot@Genesis:30:37 @ And Jacob took himself rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chestnut tree; and peeled thereon white streaks, laying bare the white which was on the rods.

lesserot@Genesis:30:38 @ And he set the rods which he had peeled in the gutters in the watering troughs, where the flocks came to drink, just before the flocks, and where they conceived, when they came to drink.

lesserot@Genesis:30:39 @ And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth ring–streaked, speckled, and spotted.

lesserot@Genesis:30:40 @ And these lambs did Jacob separate, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ring–streaked, and whatever was brown in the flock of Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them not with Laban’s cattle.

lesserot@Genesis:30:41 @ And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.

lesserot@Genesis:30:42 @ But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in; so the feebler belonged to Laban, and the stronger to Jacob.

lesserot@Genesis:30:43 @ And the man increased exceedingly, and he had many flocks, and maid–servants, and men–servants, and camels, and asses.

lesserot@Genesis:31:1 @ And he heard the words of Laban’s sons, saying, Jacob hath taken away all that was our father’s, and of that which was our father’s hath he gotten all this wealth.

lesserot@Genesis:31:2 @ And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and, behold, it was not toward him as before.

lesserot@Genesis:31:3 @ And the Lord said unto Jacob, Return unto the land of thy fathers, and to thy birthplace; and I will be with thee.

lesserot@Genesis:31:4 @ And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock.

lesserot@Genesis:31:5 @ And he said unto them, I see your father’s countenance, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father hath been with me.

lesserot@Genesis:31:6 @ And ye know well that with all my power I have served your father.

lesserot@Genesis:31:7 @ And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages ten times: but God suffered him not to do me evil.

lesserot@Genesis:31:8 @ If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages: then bore all the flocks speckled: and if he said thus, The ring–streaked shall be thy reward; then bore all the flocks ring–streaked.

lesserot@Genesis:31:9 @ Thus God took away the cattle of your father, and gave them to me.

lesserot@Genesis:31:10 @ And it came to pass at the time that the flocks conceived, that I lifted up my eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the rams which leaped upon the flocks were ring–streaked, speckled, and grizzled.

lesserot@Genesis:31:11 @ And an angel of God spoke unto me in the dream, Jacob: and I said, Here am I.

lesserot@Genesis:31:12 @ And he said, Lift up now thy eyes and see, all the rams which leap upon the flocks are ring–streaked, speckled, and grizzled; for I have seen all that Laban doth unto thee.

lesserot@Genesis:31:13 @ I am the God of Beth–el, where thou anointedst a pillar, where thou madest unto me a vow: now arise, get thee out from this land, and return unto the land of thy birth.

lesserot@Genesis:31:14 @ And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father’s house?

lesserot@Genesis:31:15 @ Were we not counted of him as strangers? for he hath sold us; and he hath quite consumed also our money.

lesserot@Genesis:31:16 @ For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that is ours, and our children’s; now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.

lesserot@Genesis:31:17 @ Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives upon camels;

lesserot@Genesis:31:18 @ And he led away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had gotten, the cattle of his acquiring, which he had gotten in Padan–aram, to go to Isaac his father into the land of Canaan.

lesserot@Genesis:31:19 @ And Laban was gone to shear his sheep; and Rachel stole the images that were her father’s.

lesserot@Genesis:31:20 @ And Jacob stole away unawares to Laban the Syrian, by not letting him know that he was going to flee.

lesserot@Genesis:31:21 @ And he fled with all that he had; and he rose up, and passed over the river, and set his face toward the mount Gilead.

lesserot@Genesis:31:22 @ And it was told to Laban on the third day that Jacob was fled.

lesserot@Genesis:31:23 @ And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him a seven days’ journey; and he overtook him at the mount of Gilead.

lesserot@Genesis:31:24 @ And God came to Laban, the Syrian, in a dream of the night, and said unto him, Take thou heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.

lesserot@Genesis:31:25 @ Then Laban overtook Jacob; now Jacob had pitched his tent on the mount, and Laban with his brethren pitched on the mount of Gilead.

lesserot@Genesis:31:26 @ And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast stolen away unawares to me, and led away my daughters, as captives taken with the sword.

lesserot@Genesis:31:27 @ Wherefore didst thou flee away secretly, and steal away from me; and why didst thou not tell me, that I might have sent thee away with mirth, and with songs, with tabret, and with harp?

lesserot@Genesis:31:28 @ And hast thou not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? now thou hast acted foolishly in so doing.

lesserot@Genesis:31:29 @ It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt; but the God of your father spoke unto me yesternight, saying, Take thou heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.

lesserot@Genesis:31:30 @ And now, thou wouldst needs be gone, because thou greatly longedst after thy father’s house; wherefore hast thou stolen my gods.

lesserot@Genesis:31:31 @ And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid, for I said, Peradventure thou wouldst take by force thy daughters from me.

lesserot@Genesis:31:32 @ With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, let him not live; before our brethren seek out thou what is thine with me, and take it to thee; but Jacob knew not that Rachel had stolen them.

lesserot@Genesis:31:33 @ And Laban went into the tent of Jacob, and into the tent of Leah, and into the tent of the two maid–servants; but he found nothing; he then went out of the tent of Leah, and entered into Rachel’s tent.

lesserot@Genesis:31:34 @ Now Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the saddle–cushion of the camel, and sat upon them; and Laban searched all the tent, and found nothing.

lesserot@Genesis:31:35 @ And she said to her father, Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise up before thee; for the custom of women is upon me; and thus he searched, but found not the images.

lesserot@Genesis:31:36 @ Now Jacob became wroth, and quarrelled with Laban; and Jacob answered and said to Laban, What is my trespass? what is my sin, that thou hast so hotly pursued after me?

lesserot@Genesis:31:37 @ Although thou hast searched all my goods, what hast thou found of all the articles of thy household? set it here before my brethren and thy brethren, that they may judge between us both.

lesserot@Genesis:31:38 @ These twenty years have I been with thee: thy ewes and thy she–goats have not cast their young; and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten.

lesserot@Genesis:31:39 @ That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto thee; I had to bear the loss of it, of my hand didst thou require it, whatever was stolen by day, or stolen by night.

lesserot@Genesis:31:40 @ I was in the day the heat consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep departed from my eyes.

lesserot@Genesis:31:41 @ These twenty years have I been in thy house; I have served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy flocks: and thou hast changed my wages ten times.

lesserot@Genesis:31:42 @ Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the Fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely thou hadst now sent me away empty; my affliction and the labor of my hands God hath seen, and decided yesternight.

lesserot@Genesis:31:43 @ And Laban answered and said unto Jacob, The daughters are my daughters, and the children are my children, and the flocks are my flocks, and all that thou seest is mine; but as to my daughters, what can I do unto them this day, or unto their children whom they have born?

lesserot@Genesis:31:44 @ And now, come thou, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be for a witness between me and thee.

lesserot@Genesis:31:45 @ And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.

lesserot@Genesis:31:46 @ And Jacob said unto his brethren, Gather stones; and they took stones, and made a heap; and they ate there upon the heap.

lesserot@Genesis:31:47 @ And Laban called it Yegar–sahadutha; but Jacob called it Galed.

lesserot@Genesis:31:48 @ And Laban said, This heap is a witness between me and thee this day; therefore called he its name Galed;

lesserot@Genesis:31:49 @ And Mitzpah; for he said, The Lord shall watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from the other;

lesserot@Genesis:31:50 @ If thou shouldst afflict my daughters, or if thou shouldst take other wives besides my daughters, when there is no man with us: see, God is witness between me and thee.

lesserot@Genesis:31:51 @ And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold this pillar, which I have cast up between me and thee;

lesserot@Genesis:31:52 @ Witness be this heap and witness be this pillar, that I will not pass by this heap, and that thou shalt not pass unto me by this heap and this pillar, for evil.

lesserot@Genesis:31:53 @ The God of Abraham and the God of Nachor shall judge between us, the God of their father; but Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.

lesserot@Genesis:31:54 @ Then Jacob slew some cattle upon the mount, and called his brethren to eat bread; and they did eat bread, and tarried all night on the mount.

lesserot@Genesis:31:55 @ And early in the morning Laban rose up, and kissed his sons and his daughters and blessed them; and Laban departed, and returned unto his own place.

lesserot@Genesis:32:1 @ And Jacob went on his way, and there met him angels of God.

lesserot@Genesis:32:2 @ And when Jacob saw them, he said, This is a host of God; and he called the name of that place Machanayim.

lesserot@Genesis:32:3 @ And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

lesserot@Genesis:32:4 @ And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak unto my lord, to Esau, Thus hath said thy servant Jacob, With Laban have I sojourned, and stayed until now.

lesserot@Genesis:32:5 @ And I have acquired oxen, and asses, flocks, and men–servants, and women–servants; and I send now to tell my lord, to find grace in thy eyes.

lesserot@Genesis:32:6 @ And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother, to Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.

lesserot@Genesis:32:7 @ Then Jacob was greatly afraid, and he felt distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two bands.

lesserot@Genesis:32:8 @ And he said, If Esau should come to the one band and smite it, then the other band which is left may escape.

lesserot@Genesis:32:9 @ And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the Lord who saidst unto me, Return unto thy country, and to thy birthplace, and I will deal well with thee:

lesserot@Genesis:32:10 @ I am not worthy of all the kindness, and of all the truth, which thou hast shown unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.

lesserot@Genesis:32:11 @ Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he will come and smite me, the mother with the children.

lesserot@Genesis:32:12 @ And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.

lesserot@Genesis:32:13 @ And he lodged there that same night; and he took of that which he carried with him a present for Esau his brother:

lesserot@Genesis:32:14 @ Two hundred she–goats, and twenty he–goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams.

lesserot@Genesis:32:15 @ Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty cows, and ten bulls, twenty she–asses, and ten foals.

lesserot@Genesis:32:16 @ And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself; and he said unto his servants, Pass on before me, and put a space between drove and drove.

lesserot@Genesis:32:17 @ And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother should meet thee, and ask thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither art thou going? and for whom are these before thee?

lesserot@Genesis:32:18 @ Then shalt thou say, They belong to thy servant, to Jacob; it is a present sent unto my lord, to Esau; and, behold, also, he is himself behind us.

lesserot@Genesis:32:19 @ And so he commanded also the second, also the third, as also all that followed the droves, saying, After this manner shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him.

lesserot@Genesis:32:20 @ And say ye moreover, Behold, also thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will receive me kindly.

lesserot@Genesis:32:21 @ The present went thus on before him; and he lodged himself that night in the camp.

lesserot@Genesis:32:22 @ And he rose up that night, and he took his two wives, and his two women–servants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of the Yabbok.

lesserot@Genesis:32:23 @ And he took them, and sent them over the stream and sent over what he had.

lesserot@Genesis:32:24 @ And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.

lesserot@Genesis:32:25 @ And when he saw that he could net prevail against him, he struck against the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was put out of joint, as he was wrestling with him.

lesserot@Genesis:32:26 @ And he said, Let me go, for the day hath dawned. And he said, I will not let thee go until thou hast blessed me.

lesserot@Genesis:32:27 @ And he said unto him, What is thy name? and he said, Jacob.

lesserot@Genesis:32:28 @ And he said, Not Jacob shall any more be called thy name, but Israel; for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

lesserot@Genesis:32:29 @ And Jacob asked him, and said, tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.

lesserot@Genesis:32:30 @ And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen an angel of God face to face, and my life hath been preserved.

lesserot@Genesis:32:31 @ And the sun rose unto him as he passed by Penuel, and he halted upon his thigh.

lesserot@Genesis:32:32 @ Therefore do the children of Israel not eat the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day; because he struck against the hollow of Jacob’s thigh on the sinew that shrank.

lesserot@Genesis:33:1 @ And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold, Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he divided the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids.

lesserot@Genesis:33:2 @ And he put the handmaids and their children foremost, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hindermost.

lesserot@Genesis:33:3 @ And he himself passed on before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.

lesserot@Genesis:33:4 @ And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him; and they wept.

lesserot@Genesis:33:5 @ And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are these with thee? And he said, The children whom God hath graciously given thy servant.

lesserot@Genesis:33:6 @ Then came the handmaids near, they and their children, and they bowed themselves.

lesserot@Genesis:33:7 @ And Leah also with her children came near, and they bowed themselves; and after that came Joseph near and Rachel, and they bowed themselves.

lesserot@Genesis:33:8 @ And he said, What meanest thou by all this drove which I have met? And he said, To find grace in the eyes of my lord.

lesserot@Genesis:33:9 @ And Esau said, I have enough, my brother, keep unto thyself what thou hast.

lesserot@Genesis:33:10 @ And Jacob said, This must not be, I pray thee; if I have but found grace in thy eyes, then do thou receive my present at my hand; since I have seen thy face, it is as though I had seen the face of an angel, and because thou hast received me kindly.

lesserot@Genesis:33:11 @ Take, I pray thee, my present that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt graciously with me, and because I have a plenty of all. And he urged him, and he took it.

lesserot@Genesis:33:12 @ And he said, Let us depart, and move farther, and I will travel near thee.

lesserot@Genesis:33:13 @ And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender, and the flocks and herds with young are a charge on me: and if they should overdrive them one day, all the flock would die.

lesserot@Genesis:33:14 @ Let my lord, I pray thee, pass on before his servant: and I will lead on slowly, according to the cattle that goeth before me and the children may be able to travel, until I come unto my lord unto Seir.

lesserot@Genesis:33:15 @ And Esau said, Let me, I pray thee, leave with thee some of the people that are with me. And he said, What needeth it? let me only final grace in the eyes of my lord.

lesserot@Genesis:33:16 @ So Esau returned that day on his way unto Seir.

lesserot@Genesis:33:17 @ And Jacob journeyed to Succoth and built himself a house, and for his cattle he made booths; therefore he called the name of the place Succoth.

lesserot@Genesis:33:18 @ And Jacob came in good health to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padan–aram; and he encamped before the city.

lesserot@Genesis:33:19 @ And he bought the parcel of the field, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the children of Chamor, the father of Shechem, for a hundred kessitah.

lesserot@Genesis:33:20 @ And he erected there an altar, and called it, El–Elohe–Yisrael.

lesserot@Genesis:34:1 @ And Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had born unto Jacob, went out to look about among the daughters of the land.

lesserot@Genesis:34:2 @ And Shechem the son of Chamor the Hivite, the prince of the country, saw her; and he took her, and lay with her, and did her violence.

lesserot@Genesis:34:3 @ And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the maiden, and spoke kindly unto the maiden.

lesserot@Genesis:34:4 @ And Shechem spoke unto Chamor his father, saying, Get me this girl for wife.

lesserot@Genesis:34:5 @ And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter; but his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held his peace until they were come.

lesserot@Genesis:34:6 @ And Chamor the father of Shechem went out unto to Jacob to speak with him.

lesserot@Genesis:34:7 @ And the sons of Jacob came from the field when they heard it, and the men were grieved, and it excited their anger greatly; because he had wrought a disgraceful thing in Israel to lie with the daughter of Jacob, and this ought not to be done.

lesserot@Genesis:34:8 @ And Chamor spoke with them, saying, The soul of Shechem my son longeth for your daughter; give her, I pray you, unto him for wife.

lesserot@Genesis:34:9 @ And intermarry with us; your daughters ye shall give unto us, and our daughters ye may take unto yourselves.

lesserot@Genesis:34:10 @ And with us shall ye dwell; and the land shall be open before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and acquire possessions therein.

lesserot@Genesis:34:11 @ And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brother, Let me but find grace in your eyes, and whatever ye may say unto me, I will give.

lesserot@Genesis:34:12 @ Ask of me ever so much dowry and gift, and I will give, just as ye may say unto me; but give me the maiden for wife.

lesserot@Genesis:34:13 @ And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Chamor his father with cunning, and spoke; because he had defiled Dinah their sister.

lesserot@Genesis:34:14 @ And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that would be a reproach unto us.

lesserot@Genesis:34:15 @ But on this condition will we consent unto you; if ye will become as we are, that every male of you be circumcised:

lesserot@Genesis:34:16 @ Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters unto us; and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.

lesserot@Genesis:34:17 @ But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised, then will we take our daughter, and go our way.

lesserot@Genesis:34:18 @ And their words were pleasing in the eyes of Chamor, and in the eyes of Shechem, the son of Chamor.

lesserot@Genesis:34:19 @ And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob’s daughter; and he was the most honored of all the house of his father.

lesserot@Genesis:34:20 @ And Chamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and spoke with the men of their city, saying,

lesserot@Genesis:34:21 @ These men are peaceably inclined with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; and the land, behold, it is large enough on all sides before them; their daughters we will take unto us for wives, and our daughters we will give unto them.

lesserot@Genesis:34:22 @ Only with this condition will the men consent unto us to dwell with us, to become one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.

lesserot@Genesis:34:23 @ Their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs will they not be ours? only let us consent unto them, that they may dwell with us.

lesserot@Genesis:34:24 @ And unto Chamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and all the males were circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.

lesserot@Genesis:34:25 @ And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, took each his sword, and came upon the city unresisted and slew all the males.

lesserot@Genesis:34:26 @ And they slew Chamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword; and they took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went out.

lesserot@Genesis:34:27 @ The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.

lesserot@Genesis:34:28 @ They took their sheep and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field.

lesserot@Genesis:34:29 @ And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives they took captive, and spoiled; and all that was in the house.

lesserot@Genesis:34:30 @ And Jacob said unto Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me, to cause me to be hated among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and as I am but few in number, they may gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I would be destroyed, I and my house.

lesserot@Genesis:34:31 @ And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with a harlot?

lesserot@Genesis:35:1 @ And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Beth–el, and dwell there; and make there an altar unto the God that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.

lesserot@Genesis:35:2 @ Then said Jacob unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments.

lesserot@Genesis:35:3 @ And let us arise, and go up to Beth–el: and I will make there an altar unto the God who answered me on the day of my distress, and was with me on the way which I went.

lesserot@Genesis:35:4 @ And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and the earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was near Shechem.

lesserot@Genesis:35:5 @ And they journeyed; and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.

lesserot@Genesis:35:6 @ So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Beth–el, he and all the people that were with him.

lesserot@Genesis:35:7 @ And he built there an altar, and called the place El–beth–el: because there God appeared unto him, when he fled from the face of his brother.

lesserot@Genesis:35:8 @ And Deborah Rebekah’s nurse died, and she was buried beneath Beth–el under an oak: and he called its named Allon–bachuth.

lesserot@Genesis:35:9 @ And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came from Padan–aram, and blessed him.

lesserot@Genesis:35:10 @ And God said unto him, Thy name is Jacob; thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name: and he called his name Israel.

lesserot@Genesis:35:11 @ And God said unto him, I am God the Almighty; be fruitful and multiply; a nation and an assemblage of nations shall spring from thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins.

lesserot@Genesis:35:12 @ And the land which I gave to Abraham and to Isaac, to thee will I give it; and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.

lesserot@Genesis:35:13 @ And God went up from him on the place where he had spoken with him.

lesserot@Genesis:35:14 @ And Jacob set up a pillar at the place where he had spoken with him, a pillar of stone; and he poured a drink offering thereon, and he poured oil thereon.

lesserot@Genesis:35:15 @ And Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him, Beth–el.

lesserot@Genesis:35:16 @ And they journeyed from Beth–el: and there was yet some distance to come to Ephrath, when Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.

lesserot@Genesis:35:17 @ And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; for this child also is a son for thee.

lesserot@Genesis:35:18 @ And it came to pass, as her soul was departing, that she called his name Ben–oni; but his father called him Benjamin.

lesserot@Genesis:35:19 @ And so Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath, which is Beth–lechem.

lesserot@Genesis:35:20 @ And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave: this is the pillar of Rachel’s grave unto this day.

lesserot@Genesis:35:21 @ And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of flocks.

lesserot@Genesis:35:22 @ And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father’s concubine; and Israel heard it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.

lesserot@Genesis:35:23 @ The sons of Leah, Jacob’s first–born, Reuben, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.

lesserot@Genesis:35:24 @ The sons of Rachel, Joseph, and Benjamin.

lesserot@Genesis:35:25 @ And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s handmaid, Dan, and Naphtali.

lesserot@Genesis:35:26 @ And the sons of Zilpah, Leah’s handmaid, Gad, and Asher: these are the sons of Jacob, that were born to him in Padan–aram.

lesserot@Genesis:35:27 @ And Jacob came unto Isaac his father unto Mamre, the city of Arba’, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned.

lesserot@Genesis:35:28 @ And the days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years.

lesserot@Genesis:35:29 @ And Isaac departed this life, and died, and was gathered unto his people, old and full of days; and Esau and Jacob his sons buried him.

lesserot@Genesis:36:1 @ Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom.

lesserot@Genesis:36:2 @ Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;

lesserot@Genesis:36:3 @ And Bahsemath Ishmael’s daughter, the sister of Nebayoth.

lesserot@Genesis:36:7 @ For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land of their sojourning could not bear them, because of their cattle.

lesserot@Genesis:36:8 @ Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

lesserot@Genesis:36:9 @ And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edom in mount Seir.

lesserot@Genesis:37:5 @ And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brothers: and they hated him yet the more.

lesserot@Genesis:37:6 @ And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed.

lesserot@Genesis:37:7 @ And, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also remained standing upright; and, behold, your sheaves placed themselves round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.

lesserot@Genesis:37:8 @ And his brothers said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.

lesserot@Genesis:37:9 @ And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brothers; and he said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars made obeisance to me.

lesserot@Genesis:37:11 @ And his brothers envied him; but his father noted the matter.

lesserot@Genesis:37:12 @ And his brothers went to feed their father’s flocks in Shechem.

lesserot@Genesis:37:14 @ And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brothers, and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him from the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.

lesserot@Genesis:37:27 @ Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites, but let our hand not be upon him; for he is our brother, our flesh. And his brothers hearkened to him.

lesserot@Genesis:37:28 @ And when the Midianitish men, merchants, passed by, they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:37:29 @ And when Reuben returned unto the pit, and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit, he rent his clothes.

lesserot@Genesis:37:30 @ And he returned unto his brothers, and said, The child is not there; and I, whither shall I go?

lesserot@Genesis:37:31 @ And they took Joseph’s coat, and killed a he–goat, and dipped the coat in the blood;

lesserot@Genesis:37:32 @ And they sent the coat of many colors, and they brought it to their father, and said, This have we found: acknowledge, we pray thee, whether it be thy son’s coat or not.

lesserot@Genesis:37:33 @ And he recognized it, and said, it is my son’s coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is surely torn in pieces.

lesserot@Genesis:37:34 @ And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.

lesserot@Genesis:37:35 @ And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I must go down unto my son, mourning, into the grave; thus his father wept for him.

lesserot@Genesis:37:36 @ And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guards.

lesserot@Genesis:38:1 @ And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brothers, and he pitched his tent with a certain Adullamite whose name was Chirah.

lesserot@Genesis:38:2 @ And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shua; and he took her, and went in unto her.

lesserot@Genesis:38:3 @ And she conceived, and bore a son; and he called his name ‘Er.

lesserot@Genesis:38:4 @ And she conceived again, and bore a son; and she called his name Onan.

lesserot@Genesis:38:5 @ And she again bore another son; and she called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.

lesserot@Genesis:38:6 @ And Judah took a wife for ‘Er his first–born, whose name was Tamar.

lesserot@Genesis:38:7 @ And ‘Er, Judah’s first–born, was displeasing in the eyes of the Lord; and the Lord slew him.

lesserot@Genesis:38:8 @ And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother’s wife, and take her, as her brother–in–law, and raise up seed to thy brother.

lesserot@Genesis:38:9 @ Onan thus knew that the seed should not be his, and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, so as not to give seed unto his brother.

lesserot@Genesis:38:10 @ And the thing which he did was displeasing in the eyes of the Lord: wherefore he slew him also.

lesserot@Genesis:38:11 @ Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter–in–law, Remain a widow at thy father’s house, till Shelah my son be grown; for he thought, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brothers have done. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father’s house.

lesserot@Genesis:38:12 @ And many days had elapsed when the daughter of Shua, Judah’s wife, died; and after Judah was comforted, he went up unto his sheep–shearers, he and his friend Chirah the Adullamite, to Timnah.

lesserot@Genesis:38:13 @ And it was told unto Tamar, saying, Behold, thy father–in–law goeth up to Timnah to shear his sheep.

lesserot@Genesis:38:14 @ And she put her widow’s garments off from her, and covered herself with a vail, and concealed her face, and seated herself at the cross–road, which is by the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him for wife.

lesserot@Genesis:38:15 @ And Judah saw her and thought her to be a harlot; because she had covered her face.

lesserot@Genesis:38:16 @ And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee; And she said, What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me?

lesserot@Genesis:38:17 @ And he said, I will send thee a kid from the flock. And she said, If thou wilt give me a pledge, till thou send it.

lesserot@Genesis:38:18 @ And he said, What is the pledge which I shall give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy scarf, and thy staff that is in thy hand. And he gave them unto her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.

lesserot@Genesis:38:19 @ And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.

lesserot@Genesis:38:20 @ And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to take the pledge out of the woman’s hand; but he found her not.

lesserot@Genesis:38:21 @ Then he asked the men of her place, saying, Where is the harlot, that was at the cross–road on the highway? And they said, There hath been no harlot in this neighborhood.

lesserot@Genesis:38:22 @ And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place have said, There hath been no harlot in this place.

lesserot@Genesis:38:23 @ And Judah said, Let her keep it, lest we be put to shame; behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.

lesserot@Genesis:38:24 @ And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told to Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter–in–law hath played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child by prostitution. And Judah said, Lead her forth, and let her be burnt.

lesserot@Genesis:38:25 @ When she was led forth, she sent to her father–in–law, saying, By the man, whose these are, am I with child: and she said, Acknowledge, I pray thee, to whom belong these, the signet, the scarf, and staff.

lesserot@Genesis:38:26 @ And Judah acknowledged them, and said, She hath been more righteous than I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he knew her not again any more.

lesserot@Genesis:38:27 @ And it came to pass at the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb.

lesserot@Genesis:38:28 @ And it came to pass, when she travailed, that the one put out his hand: and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came out first.

lesserot@Genesis:38:29 @ And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold his brother came out; and she said, How hast thou broken forth! this breach is upon thee: therefore his name was called Perez.

lesserot@Genesis:38:30 @ And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zerach.

lesserot@Genesis:39:1 @ And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the guards, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmaelites, who had brought him down thither.

lesserot@Genesis:39:2 @ And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was thus in the house of his master the Egyptian.

lesserot@Genesis:39:3 @ And when his master saw that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord caused all that he did to prosper in his hand:

lesserot@Genesis:39:4 @ Joseph found grace in his eyes, and he served him; and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.

lesserot@Genesis:39:5 @ And it came to pass from the time he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the Lord blessed the Egyptian’s house for the sake of Joseph; and the blessing of the Lord was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field.

lesserot@Genesis:39:6 @ And he left all that he had in Joseph’s hand; and he troubled himself not about aught he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was handsome in form and handsome in appearance.

lesserot@Genesis:39:7 @ And it came to pass after these things, that his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.

lesserot@Genesis:39:8 @ But he refused, and said unto his master’s wife, Behold, Thy master troubleth himself not about what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath into my hand;

lesserot@Genesis:39:9 @ There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great evil, and sin against God?

lesserot@Genesis:39:10 @ And it came to pass, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, and he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her;

lesserot@Genesis:39:11 @ That it came to pass one particular day, that he went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within.

lesserot@Genesis:39:12 @ And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me; and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and ran out into the street.

lesserot@Genesis:39:13 @ And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,

lesserot@Genesis:39:14 @ That she called unto the men of her house, and spoke unto them, saying, See, he hath brought in unto us a Hebrew man to have his sport with us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice:

lesserot@Genesis:39:15 @ And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and ran out into the street.

lesserot@Genesis:39:16 @ And she laid up his garment by her until his lord came home.

lesserot@Genesis:39:17 @ And she spoke unto him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant whom thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to have his sport with me.

lesserot@Genesis:39:18 @ And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled forth.

lesserot@Genesis:39:19 @ And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke unto him, saying, After this manner hath thy servant done to me; that his wrath was kindled.

lesserot@Genesis:39:20 @ And Joseph’s master took him, and put him into the prison, the place where the king’s prisoners were imprisoned: and he was there in the prison.

lesserot@Genesis:39:21 @ But the Lord was with Joseph, and caused him to find kindness, and gave him favor in the eyes of the superintendent of the prison.

lesserot@Genesis:39:22 @ And the superintendent of the prison committed into Joseph’s hand all the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, was done through him.

lesserot@Genesis:39:23 @ The superintendent of the prison looked not after the least that was under his hand, because the Lord was with him; and that which he did, the Lord made to prosper.

lesserot@Genesis:40:1 @ And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and the baker committed an offense, against their lord the king of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:40:2 @ And Pharaoh was wroth against his two officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.

lesserot@Genesis:40:3 @ And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guards, into the prison, the place where Joseph was confined.

lesserot@Genesis:40:4 @ And the captain of the guards charged Joseph with them, and he served them; and they continued a season in ward.

lesserot@Genesis:40:5 @ And they dreamed a dream, both of them, each his dream in one night, each in accordance with the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison.

lesserot@Genesis:40:6 @ And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked at them, and, behold, they were sad.

lesserot@Genesis:40:7 @ And he asked the officers of Pharaoh that were with him in ward in his lord’s house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly today?

lesserot@Genesis:40:8 @ And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is none to interpret it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell it to me, I pray you.

lesserot@Genesis:40:9 @ The chief of the butlers then told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;

lesserot@Genesis:40:10 @ And on the vine were three branches; and it was as though it budded, shot forth its blossoms, and on its clusters the grapes became ripe:

lesserot@Genesis:40:11 @ And Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them out into Pharaoh’s cup, and I placed the cup into Pharaoh’s hand.

lesserot@Genesis:40:12 @ And Joseph said unto him, This is its interpretation: The three branches are three days;

lesserot@Genesis:40:13 @ Within yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head, and restore thee unto thy office; and thou shalt place Pharaoh’s cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.

lesserot@Genesis:40:14 @ Therefore if thou thinkest on me when it shall be well with thee, then show kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house;

lesserot@Genesis:40:15 @ For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews; and here also have I not done the least that they should put me into the dungeon.

lesserot@Genesis:40:16 @ And when the chief of the bakers saw that he had well interpreted, he said unto Joseph, I also in my dream, and, behold, I had three baskets with fine bread on my head:

lesserot@Genesis:40:17 @ And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats, used as food for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket from my head.

lesserot@Genesis:40:18 @ And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation: The three baskets are three days;

lesserot@Genesis:40:19 @ Within yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and will hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.

lesserot@Genesis:40:20 @ And it came to pass on the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief of the butlers and the head of the chief of the bakers among his servants.

lesserot@Genesis:40:21 @ And he restored the chief of the butlers unto his butlership; and he placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand;

lesserot@Genesis:40:22 @ But the chief of the bakers he hanged, as Joseph had interpreted to them.

lesserot@Genesis:40:23 @ Yet the chief of the butlers did not remember Joseph, and forgot him.

lesserot@Genesis:41:1 @ And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river.

lesserot@Genesis:41:2 @ And, behold, there came up out of the river seven cows, of good appearance and fat in flesh; and they fed in the meadow.

lesserot@Genesis:41:3 @ And, behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the river, ill–favored and lean in flesh; and they stood by the other cows upon the brink of the river.

lesserot@Genesis:41:4 @ And the ill–favored and lean–fleshed cows did eat up the seven well–favored and fat cows. And Pharaoh awoke.

lesserot@Genesis:41:5 @ And he slept and dreamed a second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up on one stalk, rank and good.

lesserot@Genesis:41:6 @ And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.

lesserot@Genesis:41:7 @ And the seven thin ears swallowed up the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.

lesserot@Genesis:41:8 @ And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream; but there was none that could interpret the same unto Pharaoh.

lesserot@Genesis:41:9 @ Then spoke the chief of the butlers unto Pharaoh, saying, My faults I must call to remembrance this day:

lesserot@Genesis:41:10 @ Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in ward in the house of the captain of the guards, me and the chief of the bakers;

lesserot@Genesis:41:11 @ And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each in accordance with the interpretation of his dream.

lesserot@Genesis:41:12 @ And there was with us a Hebrew lad, a servant to the captain of the guards; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each according to his dream did he interpret.

lesserot@Genesis:41:13 @ And it came to pass, just as he had interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto my office, and him he hanged.

lesserot@Genesis:41:14 @ Then Pharaoh sent and had Joseph called, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved himself, and changed his garments, and came in unto Pharaoh.

lesserot@Genesis:41:15 @ And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, that thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.

lesserot@Genesis:41:16 @ And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me; God will give an answer for the peace of Pharaoh.

lesserot@Genesis:41:17 @ And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the brink of the river;

lesserot@Genesis:41:18 @ And, behold, there came up out of the river seven cows, fat in flesh and good in shape; and they fed in the meadow;

lesserot@Genesis:41:19 @ And, behold, seven other cows came up after them, poor and very ill–shaped and lean in flesh; I never saw any like these in all the land of Egypt for ugliness;

lesserot@Genesis:41:20 @ And the lean and the ill–favored cows did eat up the first seven fat cows;

lesserot@Genesis:41:21 @ And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but their appearance was still as bad as at the beginning. And I awoke.

lesserot@Genesis:41:22 @ And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, full and good;

lesserot@Genesis:41:23 @ And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them;

lesserot@Genesis:41:24 @ And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this unto the magicians; but there was none that could tell it to me.

lesserot@Genesis:41:25 @ And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, the dream of Pharaoh is one, that which God is about to do, he hath told to Pharaoh.

lesserot@Genesis:41:26 @ The seven good cows are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years; the dream is one.

lesserot@Genesis:41:27 @ And the seven thin and ill–favored cows that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears, blasted with the east wind, shall be seven years of famine.

lesserot@Genesis:41:28 @ This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he hath shown unto Pharaoh.

lesserot@Genesis:41:29 @ Behold, there are coming seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:

lesserot@Genesis:41:30 @ And there shall arise seven years of famine after them, when all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land;

lesserot@Genesis:41:31 @ And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following it; for it shall be very grievous.

lesserot@Genesis:41:32 @ And as it respecteth that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice, it is because the thing is firmly resolved on by God, and God hasteneth to bring it to pass.

lesserot@Genesis:41:33 @ Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:41:34 @ Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven years of plenty.

lesserot@Genesis:41:35 @ And let them gather up all the food of those good years that are coming, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, as food in the cities, and keep the same.

lesserot@Genesis:41:36 @ And that food shall be for a store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land be not cut off through the famine.

lesserot@Genesis:41:37 @ And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.

lesserot@Genesis:41:38 @ And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom the spirit of God is?

lesserot@Genesis:41:39 @ And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Inasmuch as God hath caused thee to know all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou:

lesserot@Genesis:41:40 @ Thou shalt be over my house, and according to thy word shall all my people be ruled, only in regard to the throne will I be greater than thou.

lesserot@Genesis:41:41 @ And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:41:42 @ And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a golden chain about his neck;

lesserot@Genesis:41:43 @ And he caused him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bend the knee: and he placed him over all the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:41:44 @ And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh; but without thee shall no man lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:41:45 @ And Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath–pa’neach; and he gave him Assenath the daughter of Poti–phera’, the priest of On, for wife. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:41:46 @ And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh the king of Egypt; and Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:41:47 @ And the earth brought forth in the seven years of plenty by handfuls.

lesserot@Genesis:41:48 @ And he gathered up all the food of the seven years, which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities: the food of the field of the city, which was round about it, laid he up in the same.

lesserot@Genesis:41:49 @ And Joseph heaped up corn as the sand of the sea, very much; until he left off numbering, for it was without number.

lesserot@Genesis:41:50 @ And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, whom Assenath the daughter of Poti–phera’ the priest of On, bore unto him.

lesserot@Genesis:41:51 @ And Joseph called the name of the first–born Menasseh: For God hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.

lesserot@Genesis:41:52 @ And the name of the second he called Ephraim; For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.

lesserot@Genesis:41:53 @ And the seven years of plenty, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.

lesserot@Genesis:41:54 @ And the seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said; and there was famine in all the countries, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.

lesserot@Genesis:41:55 @ And when all the land of Egypt also felt hunger, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do.

lesserot@Genesis:41:56 @ And the famine was over all the face of the earth: and Joseph opened all the store–houses, wherein corn was, and sold unto the Egyptians; for the famine grew strong in the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:41:57 @ And all the countries came into Egypt to buy corn of Joseph; because the famine was sore in all the countries.

lesserot@Genesis:42:1 @ And when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob said unto his sons, Why do ye look at one another?

lesserot@Genesis:42:2 @ And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt; get you down thither, and buy for us provision from there, that we may live, and not die.

lesserot@Genesis:42:3 @ And ten brothers of Joseph went down to buy corn in Egypt,

lesserot@Genesis:42:4 @ But Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, Jacob sent not with his brothers; for he said, Lest mischief befall him.

lesserot@Genesis:42:5 @ And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among those that came; for the famine was in the land of Canaan.

lesserot@Genesis:42:6 @ And Joseph––he was the governor over the land, it was he that sold corn to all the people of the land; and Joseph’s brothers came, and bowed themselves down before him with the face to the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:42:7 @ And Joseph saw his brothers, and he recognized them; but made himself strange unto them and spoke roughly unto them; and he said unto them, Whence come ye? And they said, From the land of Canaan to buy food.

lesserot@Genesis:42:8 @ And Joseph recognized his brothers, but they recognized not him.

lesserot@Genesis:42:9 @ And Joseph remembered the dreams which he had dreamed concerning them, and he said unto them, Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land are ye come.

lesserot@Genesis:42:10 @ And they said unto him, No, my lord, thy servants are only come to buy food.

lesserot@Genesis:42:11 @ We are all sons of one man; we are true men; thy servants have never been spies.

lesserot@Genesis:42:12 @ And he said unto them, No! but to see the nakedness of the land are ye come.

lesserot@Genesis:42:13 @ And they said, We, thy servants, are twelve brothers, sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is no more.

lesserot@Genesis:42:14 @ And Joseph said unto them, It is as I have spoken unto you, saying, Ye are spies;

lesserot@Genesis:42:15 @ Hereby shall ye be proved: By the life of Pharaoh, ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither.

lesserot@Genesis:42:16 @ Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether the truth be with you; and if not, by the life of Pharaoh, ye are surely spies.

lesserot@Genesis:42:17 @ And he put them together into ward three days.

lesserot@Genesis:42:18 @ And Joseph said unto them on the third day, This do, and live; I fear God.

lesserot@Genesis:42:19 @ If ye be true men, let one of your brothers remain imprisoned in the house of your confinement; but ye, go, carry home what you have bought for the want of your household.

lesserot@Genesis:42:20 @ But your youngest brother bring unto me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so.

lesserot@Genesis:42:21 @ And they said to one another, Truly we are guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us.

lesserot@Genesis:42:22 @ And Reuben answered them, saying, Did I not say unto you, thus, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? and behold, his blood also is now required.

lesserot@Genesis:42:23 @ And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for he spoke unto them by an interpreter.

lesserot@Genesis:42:24 @ And he turned himself away from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and spoke with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes.

lesserot@Genesis:42:25 @ And Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man’s money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way; and he did unto them thus.

lesserot@Genesis:42:26 @ And they loaded their asses with their corn, and departed thence.

lesserot@Genesis:42:27 @ And one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the inn: when he espied his money, for, behold, it was in the mouth of his sack.

lesserot@Genesis:42:28 @ And he said unto his brothers, My money hath been restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them, and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God hath done unto us?

lesserot@Genesis:42:29 @ And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and they told him all that had befallen them; saying,

lesserot@Genesis:42:30 @ The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us, and took us as though we were espying the country.

lesserot@Genesis:42:31 @ And we said unto him, We are true men; we have never been spies:

lesserot@Genesis:42:32 @ We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; the one is no more, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.

lesserot@Genesis:42:33 @ And the man, the lord of the country, said unto us, Hereby shall I know that ye are true men: leave one of your brothers here with me, and the want of your households take ye and be gone;

lesserot@Genesis:42:34 @ And bring your youngest brother unto me; then shall I know that ye are no spies, but that ye are true men; your brother I will give up to you, and in the land ye shall be allowed to traffic.

lesserot@Genesis:42:35 @ And it came to pass as they were emptying their sacks, that, behold, every man’s bundle of money was in his sack: and when they saw the bundles of their money, they and their father, they were afraid.

lesserot@Genesis:42:36 @ And Jacob their father said unto them, Me ye have bereaved of my children: Joseph is gone, and Simeon is gone, and Benjamin ye will take away; all these things are against me.

lesserot@Genesis:42:37 @ And Reuben said unto his father, thus, Two of my sons shalt thou slay, if I bring him not to thee; deliver him into my hand, and I will bring him back to thee.

lesserot@Genesis:42:38 @ And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he alone is left: and if mischief befall him by the way in which ye go, then will ye bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.

lesserot@Genesis:43:1 @ And the famine was sore in the land.

lesserot@Genesis:43:2 @ And it came to pass, when they had completely eaten up the provisions which they had brought out of Egypt, that their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.

lesserot@Genesis:43:3 @ And Judah said unto him, thus, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.

lesserot@Genesis:43:4 @ If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food;

lesserot@Genesis:43:5 @ But if thou sendest him not, we will not go down; for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.

lesserot@Genesis:43:6 @ And Israel said, Wherefore have ye dealt so ill with me, as to tell the man that ye have yet another brother?

lesserot@Genesis:43:7 @ And they said, The man inquired particularly concerning us, and our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye another brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we possibly know that he would say, Bring down your brother?

lesserot@Genesis:43:8 @ And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, as also our little ones.

lesserot@Genesis:43:9 @ I will be surety for him; from my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then shall I have sinned against thee all the days.

lesserot@Genesis:43:10 @ For, if we had not lingered, surely we had now returned the second time.

lesserot@Genesis:43:11 @ And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this: take of the best products of the land in your vessels, and carry down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and lotus, pistachio–nuts and almonds;

lesserot@Genesis:43:12 @ And twofold money take in your hand; and the money that was put back in the mouth of your sacks, you must carry back in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight;

lesserot@Genesis:43:13 @ Also your brother take along, and arise, go again unto the man.

lesserot@Genesis:43:14 @ And may God the Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away to you your other brother, and Benjamin. And I, if I am to be bereaved, let me be bereaved.

lesserot@Genesis:43:15 @ And the men took that present; and twofold money they took in their hand, as also Benjamin; and they rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.

lesserot@Genesis:43:16 @ And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the superintendent of his house, Bring these men into the house, and slay, and make ready; for with me shall these men dine at noon.

lesserot@Genesis:43:17 @ And the man did as Joseph had said; and the man brought the men into Joseph’s house.

lesserot@Genesis:43:18 @ And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph’s house: and they said, Because of the money that came back in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, together with our asses.

lesserot@Genesis:43:19 @ And they came near to the man who was appointed over Joseph’s house, and they spoke with him at the door of the house.

lesserot@Genesis:43:20 @ And they said, Pardon, my lord, we came down at the first time to buy food:

lesserot@Genesis:43:21 @ And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, every man’s money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in its full weight; and we have brought it back in our hand.

lesserot@Genesis:43:22 @ And other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food; we know not who hath put our money in our sacks.

lesserot@Genesis:43:23 @ And he said, Peace be to you, fear not; your God, and the God of your father, hath given you a treasure in your sacks; your money hath come to me. And he brought Simeon out unto them.

lesserot@Genesis:43:24 @ And the man brought the men into Joseph’s house; and he gave them water, and they washed their feet, and he gave provender to their asses.

lesserot@Genesis:43:25 @ And they made ready the present before Joseph came home at noon; for they had heard that they should eat bread there.

lesserot@Genesis:43:26 @ And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.

lesserot@Genesis:43:27 @ And he asked them after their welfare, and said, Is your old father well, of whom ye spoke? is he yet alive?

lesserot@Genesis:43:28 @ And they answered, Thy servant, our father, is in good health, he is yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and prostrated themselves.

lesserot@Genesis:43:29 @ And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother’s son, and said, Is this your youngest brother, of whom ye spoke unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.

lesserot@Genesis:43:30 @ And Joseph hastened away, for his affection toward his brother became enkindled, and he sought to weep; and he entered into his chamber and wept there.

lesserot@Genesis:43:31 @ And he washed his face, and came out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on the bread.

lesserot@Genesis:43:32 @ And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves; and for the Egyptians, who did eat with him, by themselves; because the Egyptians may not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.

lesserot@Genesis:43:33 @ And they sat before him, the first–born according to his prior birth, and the youngest according to his youth; and the men marveled one at the other.

lesserot@Genesis:43:34 @ And he sent portions unto them from before him; but Benjamin’s portion exceeded the portions of all of them fivefold. And they drank, and were merry with him.

lesserot@Genesis:44:1 @ And he commanded the superintendent of his house, saying, Fill the sacks of these men with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man’s money in the mouth of his sack.

lesserot@Genesis:44:2 @ And my cup, the silver cup, thou shalt put in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, and the money for his corn. And he did according to the word of Joseph which he had spoken.

lesserot@Genesis:44:3 @ As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses.

lesserot@Genesis:44:4 @ They were gone out of the city, not yet far off, when Joseph said unto the superintendent of his house, Up, follow after the men; and when thou hast overtaken them, say unto them, Wherefore have ye returned evil for good?

lesserot@Genesis:44:5 @ Is not this out of which my lord drinketh, and whereby indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing.

lesserot@Genesis:44:6 @ And he overtook them, and he spoke unto them these same words.

lesserot@Genesis:44:7 @ And they said unto him, Wherefore will my lord speak such words as these? God forbid that thy servants should do any thing like this.

lesserot@Genesis:44:8 @ Behold the money, which we found in the mouth of our sacks, we brought back unto thee out of the land of Canaan: how then should we steal out of thy lord’s house silver or gold?

lesserot@Genesis:44:9 @ With whomsoever of thy servants it be found, let him die; and we also will be bondmen unto thy lord.

lesserot@Genesis:44:10 @ And he said, Now also let it be according to your words: he with whom it is found shall be my servant; but ye shall be blameless.

lesserot@Genesis:44:11 @ And they made haste, and every one of them took down his sack to the ground, and every one opened his sack.

lesserot@Genesis:44:12 @ And he searched, at the eldest he began, and at the youngest he left off; and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.

lesserot@Genesis:44:13 @ Then they rent their clothes, and every one loaded his ass, and they returned to the city.

lesserot@Genesis:44:14 @ And Judah and his brothers came into Joseph’s house, and he was yet there; and they fell down before him on the ground.

lesserot@Genesis:44:15 @ And Joseph said unto them, What deed is this that ye have done? knew ye not that such a man as I can certainly divine?

lesserot@Genesis:44:16 @ And Judah said, What shall we say unto my lord? what shall we speak? or how shall we justify ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold we are servants unto my lord, both we, as also he in whose hand the cup was found.

lesserot@Genesis:44:17 @ And he said, God forbid that I should do this: the man in whose hand the cup was found, he shall be my servant; and as for you, go you up in peace unto your father.

lesserot@Genesis:44:18 @ Then Judah came near unto him, and said, Pardon, my lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my lord’s ears, and let not thy anger burn against thy servant; for thou art even as Pharaoh.

lesserot@Genesis:44:19 @ My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother.

lesserot@Genesis:44:20 @ And we said unto my lord, We have an old father, and a little child born in his old age; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him.

lesserot@Genesis:44:21 @ And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, that I may set my eye upon him.

lesserot@Genesis:44:22 @ And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father; for if he should leave his father, he would die.

lesserot@Genesis:44:23 @ And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall not see my face any more.

lesserot@Genesis:44:24 @ And it came to pass, when we came up unto thy servant my father, that we told him the words of my lord.

lesserot@Genesis:44:25 @ And our father said, Go back and buy us a little food.

lesserot@Genesis:44:26 @ And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down; for we cannot see the man’s face, except our youngest brother be with us.

lesserot@Genesis:44:27 @ And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bore me two sons;

lesserot@Genesis:44:28 @ And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he hath been torn to pieces; and I have not seen him up to this time.

lesserot@Genesis:44:29 @ And if ye take this one also from me, and mischief befall him, ye will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.

lesserot@Genesis:44:30 @ And now, when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad be not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad’s life;

lesserot@Genesis:44:31 @ It will come to pass, that when he seeth that the lad is not with us, he will die: and thy servants would thus bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to the grave.

lesserot@Genesis:44:32 @ For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then shall I have sinned against my father all the days.

lesserot@Genesis:44:33 @ Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad as bond–man to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brothers.

lesserot@Genesis:44:34 @ For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? I should perhaps be compelled to witness the evil which would come on my father.

lesserot@Genesis:45:1 @ Then could Joseph not refrain himself before all those that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there remained no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brothers.

lesserot@Genesis:45:2 @ And he raised his voice in weeping; and the Egyptians heard it, and the house of Pharaoh heard it.

lesserot@Genesis:45:3 @ And Joseph said unto his brothers, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brothers could not answer him; for they were terrified at his presence.

lesserot@Genesis:45:4 @ And Joseph said unto his brothers, Come near to me, I pray you; and they came near; and he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:45:5 @ But now be not grieved, nor be angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither; for in order to preserve life did God send me before you.

lesserot@Genesis:45:6 @ For these two years hath the famine been already in the land; and there are yet five years, in which there will be neither ploughing nor harvesting.

lesserot@Genesis:45:7 @ And God hath thus sent me before you to prepare for you a permanence on the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.

lesserot@Genesis:45:8 @ So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God; and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and a lord for all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:45:9 @ Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus hath said thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt; come down unto me, tarry not.

lesserot@Genesis:45:10 @ And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children’s children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that is thine.

lesserot@Genesis:45:11 @ And I will maintain thee there; for there are yet five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast, come to poverty.

lesserot@Genesis:45:12 @ And, behold, your own eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you.

lesserot@Genesis:45:13 @ And ye shall tell my father of all my honor in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye shall hasten and bring down my father hither.

lesserot@Genesis:45:14 @ And he fell upon his brother Benjamin’s neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept upon his neck.

lesserot@Genesis:45:15 @ And he kissed all his brothers, and wept upon them; and after that his brothers spoke with him.

lesserot@Genesis:45:16 @ And the report thereof was heard in Pharaoh’s house, saying, Joseph’s brothers are come; and it was pleasing in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants.

lesserot@Genesis:45:17 @ And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto thy brothers, This do ye; load your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan;

lesserot@Genesis:45:18 @ And take your father and your households, and come unto me; and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land.

lesserot@Genesis:45:19 @ And thou art commanded, This do ye, take unto yourselves out of the land of Egypt wagons for your little ones, and for your wives, and take up your father, and come.

lesserot@Genesis:45:20 @ And do ye feel no concern on account of your household goods; for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.

lesserot@Genesis:45:21 @ And the children of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the command of Pharaoh; and he gave them provision for the way.

lesserot@Genesis:45:22 @ To all of them he gave to each changes of raiment; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver, and five changes of raiment.

lesserot@Genesis:45:23 @ And to his father he sent after this manner: ten asses laden with the best things of Egypt, and ten she–asses laden with corn and bread and other food for his father, for the journey.

lesserot@Genesis:45:24 @ And he accompanied his brothers on the way, and they departed: and he said unto them, Do not fall out by the way.

lesserot@Genesis:45:25 @ And they went out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan, unto Jacob their father.

lesserot@Genesis:45:26 @ And they told him, saying, Joseph is yet alive; and that he is governor over all the land of Egypt. But his heart remained cold, for he believed them not.

lesserot@Genesis:45:27 @ But when they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them; and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him: the spirit of Jacob their father revived.

lesserot@Genesis:45:28 @ And Israel said, Enough; Joseph my son is yet alive: I will go and see him before I die.

lesserot@Genesis:46:1 @ And Israel commenced his journey with all that he had, and came to Beer–sheba, and offered sacrifices unto the God of his father Isaac.

lesserot@Genesis:46:2 @ And God spoke unto Israel in the visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.

lesserot@Genesis:46:3 @ And he said, I am God, the God of thy father; fear not to go down into Egypt; for a great nation will I make of thee there:

lesserot@Genesis:46:4 @ I will go down with thee into Egypt; and I will also surely bring thee up again; and Joseph shall put his hand upon thy eyes.

lesserot@Genesis:46:5 @ And Jacob rose up from Beer–sheba: and the sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, and their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.

lesserot@Genesis:46:6 @ And they took their cattle and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt; Jacob, and all his seed with him:

lesserot@Genesis:46:29 @ And Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen; and when he obtained sight of him, he fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.

lesserot@Genesis:46:30 @ And Israel said unto Joseph, Let me die now, since I have seen thy face, that thou art yet alive.

lesserot@Genesis:46:31 @ And Joseph said unto his brothers, and unto his father’s house, I will go up, and tell Pharaoh, and say unto him, My brothers and my father’s house, who were in the land of Canaan, are come unto me;

lesserot@Genesis:46:34 @ That ye shall say, Owners of cattle have thy servants been from our youth even until now, both we, as also our fathers; in order that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination unto the Egyptians.

lesserot@Genesis:47:1 @ Then came Joseph and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brothers, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen.

lesserot@Genesis:47:2 @ And he took some of his brothers, five men, and presented them before Pharaoh.

lesserot@Genesis:47:3 @ And Pharaoh said unto his brothers, What is your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh, Thy servants are shepherds, both we, as also our fathers.

lesserot@Genesis:47:4 @ They said moreover unto Pharaoh, To sojourn in the land are we come; because there is no pasture for the flocks of thy servants, for the famine is sore in the land of Canaan; and now let thy servants dwell, we pray thee, in the land of Goshen.

lesserot@Genesis:47:5 @ And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, thus, Thy father and thy brothers are come unto thee:

lesserot@Genesis:47:6 @ The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land let thy father and brothers dwell; let them dwell in the land of Goshen; and if thou knowest that there are among them men of activity, then appoint them rulers over my cattle.

lesserot@Genesis:47:10 @ And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.

lesserot@Genesis:47:11 @ And Joseph assigned places of residence for his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Ra’meses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

lesserot@Genesis:47:12 @ And Joseph supplied his father, and his brothers, and all his father’s household, with bread, in proportion to their families.

lesserot@Genesis:47:13 @ And there was no bread in all the land: for the famine was very sore; and the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.

lesserot@Genesis:47:14 @ And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.

lesserot@Genesis:47:15 @ And when the money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said, Give us bread, for why should we die in thy presence, since the money is all gone?

lesserot@Genesis:47:16 @ And Joseph said, Give up your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if the money be all gone.

lesserot@Genesis:47:17 @ And they brought their cattle unto Joseph; and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for the flocks of sheep, and for the herds of cattle, and for the asses; and he supplied them with bread for all their cattle for that year.

lesserot@Genesis:47:18 @ And when that year was ended, they came unto him in the second year, and said unto him, We will not hide it from my lord, how that our money with our herds of cattle hath entirely passed into the possession of my lord; there is naught left in sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our land.

lesserot@Genesis:47:19 @ Wherefore shall we die before thy eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread; and we and our land will be servants unto Pharaoh; and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land be not rendered desolate.

lesserot@Genesis:47:20 @ And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh’s.

lesserot@Genesis:47:21 @ And as for the people, he removed them to the cities, from one end of the borders of Egypt to the other end thereof.

lesserot@Genesis:47:22 @ Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the priests had a portion assigned them by Pharaoh, and they ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them: therefore they did not sell their land.

lesserot@Genesis:47:23 @ Then said Joseph unto the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, here is seed for you, and sow ye the land.

lesserot@Genesis:47:24 @ And it shall come to pass in the harvest times, that ye shall give the fifth part unto Pharaoh; and four parts shall be your own, for the seed of the field, and for your food, and for those belonging to your households, and for food for your little ones.

lesserot@Genesis:47:25 @ And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us but find grace in the eyes of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.

lesserot@Genesis:47:26 @ And Joseph made it a statute unto this day over the land of Egypt, that Pharaoh should have the fifth part; except the land of the priests alone became not Pharaoh’s.

lesserot@Genesis:47:27 @ And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions therein, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly.

lesserot@Genesis:47:28 @ And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years: and the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred forty and seven years.

lesserot@Genesis:47:29 @ And when the time of Israel drew near that he was to die, he sent to call his son Joseph, and said unto him, if now I have found grace in thy eyes, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh; and deal with me in kindness and truth; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt.

lesserot@Genesis:47:30 @ But when I shall lie with my fathers, thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying–place. And he said, I will do as thou hast said.

lesserot@Genesis:47:31 @ And he said, Swear unto me; and he swore unto him; and Israel bowed himself upon the head of the bed.

lesserot@Genesis:48:1 @ And it came to pass after these things, that some one said to Joseph, Behold, thy father is sick; and he took his two sons with him, Menasseh and Ephraim.

lesserot@Genesis:48:2 @ And some one told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph is coming unto thee; and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed.

lesserot@Genesis:48:3 @ And Jacob said unto Joseph, God, the Almighty, appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,

lesserot@Genesis:48:4 @ And he said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and I will give this land to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.

lesserot@Genesis:48:5 @ And now thy two sons, who were born unto thee in the land of Egypt, before I came unto thee into Egypt, shall be mine; Ephraim and Menasseh shall be unto me as Reuben and Simeon.

lesserot@Genesis:48:6 @ And thy issue, which thou begettest after them, shall be thine, after the name of their brothers shall they be called in their inheritance.

lesserot@Genesis:48:7 @ And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan on the way, when yet there was some distance to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there on the way of Ephrath, the same is Beth–lechem.

lesserot@Genesis:48:8 @ And Israel perceived the sons of Joseph, and said, Who are these?

lesserot@Genesis:48:9 @ And Joseph said unto his father, They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them.

lesserot@Genesis:48:10 @ Now the eyes of Israel were dim through age, he could not see; and he brought them near unto him, and he kissed them, and embraced them.

lesserot@Genesis:48:11 @ And Israel said unto Joseph, To see thy face I had not hoped; and lo, God hath shown me also thy seed.

lesserot@Exodus:9:13 @ And the Lord said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and place thyself before Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus hath said the Eternal, the God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me.

lesserot@Exodus:9:14 @ For at this time I send all my plagues against thy heart, and against thy servants, and against thy people; in order that thou mayest know that there is none like me on all the earth.

lesserot@Exodus:9:16 @ But for this cause have I allowed thee to remain, in order to show thee my power; and in order that they may proclaim my name throughout all the earth.

lesserot@Exodus:9:18 @ Behold, then will I let rain, about this time tomorrow, a very grievous hail, the like of which hath not been in Egypt since the day of its foundation even until now.

lesserot@Exodus:9:20 @ He that feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his cattle flee into the houses;

lesserot@Exodus:9:21 @ And he that regarded not the word of the Lord left his servants and his cattle in the field.

lesserot@Exodus:9:23 @ And Moses stretched forth his staff toward heaven; and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran down to the ground; and the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Exodus:9:26 @ Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.

lesserot@Exodus:9:27 @ And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and he said unto them, I have sinned this time; the Eternal is the righteous, and I and my people are the wicked.

lesserot@Exodus:9:33 @ And Moses went away from Pharaoh out of the city, and spread out his hands unto the Lord: and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured out upon the earth.

lesserot@Exodus:10:6 @ And thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians shall be full of them; such as neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day of their being upon the earth, until this day; and he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.

lesserot@Exodus:10:7 @ And the servants of Pharaoh said unto him, How long shall this man be unto us for a snare? let the men go, that they may serve the Lord their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?

lesserot@Exodus:10:11 @ Not so; go now ye men, and serve the Lord, for this you desire: and they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.

lesserot@Exodus:10:13 @ And Moses stretched forth his staff over the land of Egypt, and the Lord urged an east wind over the land all that day, and all the night; when it was morning, the east wind bore along the locusts.

lesserot@Exodus:10:17 @ And now forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and entreat the Lord your God, that he may take away from me only this death.

lesserot@Exodus:10:20 @ But the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he did not let the children of Israel go.

lesserot@Exodus:10:22 @ And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:

lesserot@Exodus:10:23 @ They saw not one another, neither did they rise, any one from his place, for three days; but for all the children of Israel there was light in their dwellings.

lesserot@Exodus:12:42 @ A night to be observed was this unto the Lord to bring them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night holy to the Lord, to be observed by all the children of Israel in their generations.

lesserot@Exodus:13:14 @ And it shall be, when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What is this? that thou shalt say unto him, By strength of hand the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt, out of the house of slavery;

lesserot@Exodus:13:17 @ And it came to pass, when Pharaoh let the people go, that God did not lead them the way through the land of the Philistines, because it was near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and return to Egypt.

lesserot@Exodus:13:18 @ But God led the people about, by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea: and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Exodus:14:2 @ Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pi–hachiroth, between Migdol and the sea; in front of Baal–zephon; opposite to this shall ye encamp by the sea.

lesserot@Exodus:14:3 @ And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.

lesserot@Exodus:14:4 @ And I will harden the heart of Pharaoh, that he shall follow after them; and I will get myself honor on Pharaoh, and on all his host; and the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord; and they did so.

lesserot@Exodus:14:5 @ And it was told to the king of Egypt that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed with respect to the people, and they said, What is this which we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?

lesserot@Exodus:14:11 @ And they said unto Moses, Is it because there were no graves in Egypt, that thou hast taken us away to die in the wilderness? what is this which thou hast done to us, to bring us forth out of Egypt?

lesserot@Exodus:14:12 @ Is not this the word that we spoke unto thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? for it is better for us to serve the Egyptians than that we should die in the wilderness.

lesserot@Exodus:14:15 @ And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward;

lesserot@Exodus:14:16 @ But do thou lift up thy staff, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go through the midst of the sea on dry ground.

lesserot@Exodus:14:17 @ And I, behold, I will harden the heart of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get myself honor on Pharaoh, and on all his host, on his chariots, and on his horsemen.

lesserot@Exodus:14:20 @ And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness, but it gave light by night: and the one came not near unto the other all the night.

lesserot@Exodus:14:21 @ And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord drove back the sea with a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.

lesserot@Exodus:14:22 @ And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them, on their right hand, and on their left.

lesserot@Exodus:14:23 @ And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them, all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen, to the midst of the sea.

lesserot@Exodus:14:25 @ And he took off the wheels of their chariots, and caused them to move onward with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the Lord fighteth for them against the Egyptians.

lesserot@Exodus:14:27 @ And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned, when the morning appeared, to its strength; while the Egyptians were fleeing against it; and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

lesserot@Exodus:14:29 @ But the children of Israel walked upon dry ground in the midst of the sea; and the waters were unto them a wall on their right hand, and on their left.

lesserot@Exodus:14:31 @ And Israel saw that great power which the Lord had shown on the Egyptians: and the people feared the Lord, and then believed in the Lord, and in Moses his servant.

lesserot@Exodus:15:1 @ Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the Lord, and thus did they say, I will sing unto the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

lesserot@Exodus:15:2 @ My strength and song is the Lord, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will declare his praise, the God of my father, and I will exalt him.

lesserot@Exodus:15:3 @ The Eternal is the Lord of war; the Eternal is his name.

lesserot@Exodus:15:4 @ The chariots of Pharaoh and his host hath he hurled into the sea; and the chosen of his captains are sunk in the Red Sea.

lesserot@Exodus:15:6 @ Thy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power; thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

lesserot@Exodus:15:9 @ The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my desire shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

lesserot@Exodus:15:11 @ Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the mighty? who is like unto thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

lesserot@Exodus:15:16 @ Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thy arm they shall be still as a stone: till thy people pass over, O Lord, till this people pass over, which thou hast purchased.

lesserot@Exodus:15:17 @ Thou wilt bring them, and plant them on the mountain of thy inheritance, the place, O Lord, which thou hast wrought for thy residence, the sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.

lesserot@Exodus:15:19 @ For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought again upon them the waters of the sea; but the children of Israel went on dry ground through the midst of the sea.

lesserot@Exodus:15:21 @ And Miriam began her song to them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

lesserot@Exodus:15:22 @ And Moses caused Israel to depart from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.

lesserot@Exodus:15:26 @ And he said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his eyes, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and wilt keep all his statutes: I will put none of those diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians; for I the Lord am thy physician.

lesserot@Exodus:16:1 @ And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Exodus:16:2 @ And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness:

lesserot@Exodus:16:3 @ And the children of Israel said unto them, Would to God that we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh–pot, when we ate bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.

lesserot@Exodus:16:6 @ And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel, At evening, then shall ye know that it is the Lord who hath brought you out from the land of Egypt:

lesserot@Exodus:16:9 @ And Moses said unto Aaron, Say unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before the Lord; for he hath heard your murmurings.

lesserot@Exodus:16:10 @ And it came to pass, as Aaron was speaking unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they turned round toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud.

lesserot@Exodus:16:12 @ I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying, Toward evening ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the Eternal your God.

lesserot@Exodus:16:15 @ And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna, for they knew not what it was; and Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat.

lesserot@Exodus:16:16 @ This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating: an omer for every head, according to the number of your persons that every man hath in his tent, shall ye take.

lesserot@Exodus:16:17 @ And the children of Israel did so; and they gathered, some much, some little.

lesserot@Exodus:16:18 @ And when they measured it with an omer, he that had gathered much had nothing over, and he that had gathered little had no lack: every man according to his eating, had they gathered.

lesserot@Exodus:16:21 @ And so they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating; and when the sun waxed hot, it melted.

lesserot@Exodus:16:23 @ And he said unto them. This is what the Lord hath spoken, A rest, a holy rest is unto the Lord tomorrow: that which ye will bake bake today, and what ye will seethe seethe today; and all the remaining lay up for you to be kept until the morning.

lesserot@Exodus:16:25 @ And Moses said, Eat it today; for a sabbath is this day unto the Lord: today ye will not find it in the field.

lesserot@Exodus:16:29 @ See, that the Lord hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day bread for two days; remain ye, every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.

lesserot@Exodus:16:31 @ And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna,; and it was like coriander–seed, white, and its taste was like wafers made with honey.

lesserot@Exodus:16:32 @ And Moses said, This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded, One omer–full of it is to be kept for your generations; in order that they may see the bread which I gave you to eat in the wilderness, when I brought you forth out of the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Exodus:16:35 @ And the children of Israel ate the manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; the manna they did eat, until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.

lesserot@Exodus:16:36 @ But the omer is a tenth part of an ephah.

lesserot@Exodus:17:1 @ And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeyings, by the order of the Lord; and they encamped in Rephidim, and there was no water for the people to drink.

lesserot@Exodus:17:3 @ And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, For what purpose is it that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill me and my children and my cattle with thirst?

lesserot@Exodus:17:4 @ And Moses cried unto the Lord, saying, What shall I do unto this people? but little is wanting and they will stone me.

lesserot@Exodus:17:5 @ And the Lord said unto Moses, Pass on before the people, and take with thee some of the elders of Israel; and thy staff, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thy hand, and go.

lesserot@Exodus:17:6 @ Behold, I will be standing before thee there upon the rock at Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come out from it water, and the people shall drink; and Moses did so before the eyes of the elders of Israel.

lesserot@Exodus:17:7 @ And he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah; because of the quarrelling of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is then the Lord among us, or not?

lesserot@Exodus:17:8 @ Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.

lesserot@Exodus:17:11 @ And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, that Amalek prevailed.

lesserot@Exodus:17:12 @ But when the hands of Moses became heavy, they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Chur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.

lesserot@Exodus:17:13 @ And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.

lesserot@Exodus:17:14 @ And the Lord said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in the book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua; for I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens.

lesserot@Exodus:18:15 @ And Moses said unto his father–in–law, Because the people cometh unto me to inquire of God.

lesserot@Exodus:18:16 @ When they have a matter of dispute, they come unto me; and I judge between one and the other, and I make them know the statutes of God, and his laws.

lesserot@Exodus:18:18 @ Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee; for the thing is too heavy for thee; thou wilt not be able to perform it by thyself alone.

lesserot@Numbers:14:9 @ Only against the Lord do ye not rebel; and then ye need not fear the people of the land; for they are our bread: their shadow is departed from them, while the Lord is with us; fear them not.

lesserot@Numbers:14:10 @ But all the congregation said to stone them with stones: when the glory of the Lord appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation unto all the children of Israel.

lesserot@Numbers:14:11 @ And the Lord said unto Moses, How long yet shall this people provoke me? and how long yet will they not believe in me, with all the signs which I have shown in the midst of them?

lesserot@Numbers:14:13 @ And Moses said unto the Lord, But when the Egyptian hear, from the midst of whom thou hast brought up in thy might this people; ––

lesserot@Numbers:14:15 @ That thou hast killed this people as one man: then will the nations that have heard thy fame, say in this manner,

lesserot@Numbers:14:16 @ That because the Lord was not able to bring this people into the land which he had sworn unto them, hath he slain them in the wilderness.

lesserot@Numbers:14:18 @ The Eternal is long–suffering, and abundant in beneficence, forgiving iniquity and transgression; but who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.

lesserot@Numbers:14:19 @ Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of thy beneficence, and as thou hast been indulgent to this people, from Egypt even until hitherto.

lesserot@Numbers:14:22 @ That all the men who have seen my glory, and my signs, which I have displayed in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice,

lesserot@Numbers:14:24 @ But my servant Caleb, as a reward that he had another spirit with him, and followed me fully,––therefore will I bring him into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.

lesserot@Numbers:14:27 @ How long to this evil congregation, that murmur against me? the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me, have I heard.

lesserot@Numbers:14:29 @ In this wilderness shall your carcasses fall, and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward; ye who have murmured against me;

lesserot@Numbers:14:31 @ But your little ones of which ye said, They would become a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.

lesserot@Numbers:14:32 @ But as for you, your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness.

lesserot@Numbers:14:35 @ I the Lord have spoken it, surely, this will I do unto all this evil congregation that have assembled against me: in this wilderness shall they be spent, and therein shall they die.

lesserot@Numbers:14:39 @ And Moses spoke these words unto all the children of Israel; and the people mourned greatly.

lesserot@Numbers:14:42 @ Do not go up, for the Lord is not among you; that ye may not be smitten before your enemies.

lesserot@Numbers:14:44 @ Yet they persisted to go up unto the top of the mountain; but the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and Moses, did not move out of the camp.

lesserot@Numbers:14:45 @ Then came down the Amalekites, and the Canaanites that dwelt on that mountain, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Chormah.

lesserot@Numbers:15:2 @ Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When ye shall have come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you,

lesserot@Numbers:15:18 @ Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land whither I bring you:

lesserot@Numbers:15:20 @ As the first of your doughs shall ye set aside a cake for a heave–offering; like the heave–offering of the threshing–floor, so shall ye set this aside.

lesserot@Numbers:15:24 @ Then shall it be, if, through inadvertence of the congregation, it was committed by ignorance, that all the congregation shall prepare one young bullock for a burnt–offering, for a sweet savor unto the Lord, with his meat–offering, and his drink–offering, according to the prescribed manner, and one he–goat for a sin–offering.

lesserot@Numbers:15:25 @ And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven unto them; for it is ignorance; and they have brought their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord, and their sin–offering before the Lord, for their ignorance:

lesserot@Numbers:15:29 @ For the native born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them:––one law shall be for you, for him that acteth through ignorance.

lesserot@Numbers:15:30 @ But the person that doth aught with a high hand, be he one born in the land, or a stranger, the same dishonoreth the Lord; and that person shall be cut off from among his people.

lesserot@Numbers:15:31 @ Because the word of the Lord hath he despised, and his commandment hath he broken; that person shall be cut off, his iniquity is upon him.

lesserot@Numbers:16:5 @ And he spoke unto Korach and unto all his company, saying, Tomorrow,––then will the Lord make known who is his, and who is holy, that he may cause them to come near unto him; and him whom he shall choose will he cause to come near unto him.

lesserot@Numbers:16:9 @ It is too little for you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near unto himself, to do the service of the tabernacle of the Lord, and to stand before the congregation to minister for them?

lesserot@Numbers:16:13 @ Is it too little that thou hast brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, that thou wilt assume to make thyself also a prince over us?

lesserot@Numbers:16:15 @ And this displeased Moses greatly, and he said unto the Lord, Have no respect unto their offering: I have not taken away an ass of any one of them, nor have I done wrong to any one of them.

lesserot@Numbers:16:17 @ And take ye every man his censer, and put incense upon them, and bring ye near before the Lord every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each his censer.

lesserot@Numbers:16:18 @ And they took every man his censer, and put fire on them, and laid incense thereupon; and they stood at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.––

lesserot@Numbers:18:11 @ And this shall be thine, as the heave–offering of their gift, of all the wave–offerings of the children of Israel; unto thee have I given them, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee, as a fixed portion for ever: every one that is clean in thy house may eat thereof.

lesserot@Numbers:18:19 @ All the heave–offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel set apart unto the Lord, I have given to thee, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee, as a fixed portion for ever: it is a covenant of salt for ever before the Lord for thee and for thy seed with thee.

lesserot@Numbers:18:20 @ And the Lord said unto Aaron, In their land shalt thou have no inheritance, and any portion shalt thou not have among them: I am thy portion and thy inheritance among the children of Israel.

lesserot@Numbers:18:21 @ And to the children of Levi, behold, I have given every tithe in Israel, for an inheritance, in lieu of their service which they render, the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.

lesserot@Numbers:18:22 @ And the children of Israel shall not henceforth come nigh unto the tabernacle of the congregation, to bear sin, to die thereby.

lesserot@Numbers:18:23 @ But they of the tribe of Levi themselves shall perform the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they shall bear their iniquity: a statute for ever shall it be throughout your generations; and among the children of Israel shall they not possess any inheritance.

lesserot@Numbers:18:24 @ But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as a heave–offering unto the Lord, have I given to the Levites for an inheritance: therefore have I said unto them, Among the children of Israel shall they obtain no inheritance.

lesserot@Numbers:18:26 @ And unto the Levites shalt thou speak, and say unto them, When ye take from the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance: then shall ye separate therefrom a heave–offering of the Lord, the tenth part of the tithe.

lesserot@Numbers:18:28 @ Thus shall ye also offer a heave–offering unto the Lord from all your tithes, which ye may receive from the children of Israel; and ye shall give thereof the heave–offering of the Lord to Aaron the priest.

lesserot@Numbers:18:32 @ And ye shall not bear any sin by reason of it, when ye have separated its best part from it: and the holy things of the children of Israel shall ye not profane, lest ye die.

lesserot@Numbers:19:2 @ This is the statute of the law which the Lord hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee a completely red cow, on which there is no blemish, upon which no yoke hath ever come.

lesserot@Numbers:19:3 @ And ye shall give her unto Elazar the priest, and he shall lead her forth to without the camp, and some one shall slay her before his face:

lesserot@Numbers:19:5 @ And some one shall burn the cow before his eyes; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn.

lesserot@Numbers:19:7 @ And the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward may he come into the camp; and the priest shall be unclean until the evening.

lesserot@Numbers:19:8 @ And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water; and he shall be unclean until the evening.

lesserot@Numbers:19:9 @ And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the cow, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place; and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of sprinkling: it is a purification–offering.

lesserot@Numbers:19:10 @ And he that gathereth up the ashes of the cow shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them, for a statute for ever.

lesserot@Numbers:19:13 @ Whosoever toucheth the dead body, the person of any man that is dead, and purifieth himself not, hath defiled the tabernacle of the Lord; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel; because the water of sprinkling was not sprinkled upon him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is yet upon him.

lesserot@Numbers:19:14 @ This is the law, when a man dieth in a tent: Every one that cometh into the tent, and all that is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days.

lesserot@Numbers:19:15 @ And every open vessel, on which there is not a closely fitting cover, is unclean.

lesserot@Numbers:19:19 @ And the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day; and when he hath purified him on the seventh day, then shall he wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at evening.

lesserot@Numbers:19:20 @ But a man that is unclean, and doth not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation; because the sanctuary of the Lord hath he defiled; the water of sprinkling hath not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean.

lesserot@Numbers:19:21 @ And it shall be unto them for a perpetual statute; and he that sprinkleth the water of sprinkling shall wash his clothes; and he that toucheth the water of sprinkling shall be unclean until the evening.

lesserot@Numbers:20:1 @ And the children of Israel, the whole congregation, came into the desert of Zin in the first month, and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.

lesserot@Numbers:20:3 @ And the people quarreled with Moses, and said thus, Oh that we had but perished when our brethren perished before the Lord!

lesserot@Numbers:20:4 @ And why have ye brought the congregation of the Lord into this wilderness, to die there, we and our cattle!

lesserot@Numbers:20:5 @ And wherefore have ye caused us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this evil place? it is no place for sowing, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; and water even there is none to drink.

lesserot@Numbers:20:10 @ And Moses and Aaron assembled the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels! shall we out of this rock bring forth water for you?

lesserot@Numbers:20:11 @ And Moses lifted up his hand, and he smote the rock with his staff twice: and there came out much water, and the congregation drank, together with their cattle.

lesserot@Numbers:20:12 @ And the Lord said unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye have not confided in me, to sanctify me before the eyes of the children of Israel: therefore shall ye not bring this congregation into the land which I have given to them.

lesserot@Numbers:20:13 @ These are the waters of Meribah; where the children of Israel quarreled with the Lord, and through which he was sanctified.

lesserot@Numbers:20:14 @ And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus hath said thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the hardship that hath befallen us.

lesserot@Numbers:20:19 @ And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go by the highway: and if we drink of thy water, I and my cattle, then will I pay its value; I will do thee no injury, only on foot will I pass through.

lesserot@Numbers:20:21 @ And as Edom thus refused to permit Israel to pass through his border, Israel turned away from him.

lesserot@Numbers:20:22 @ And they set forward from Kadesh; and the children of Israel, the whole congregation, came unto mount Hor.

lesserot@Numbers:20:24 @ Aaron shall be gathered unto his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my order at the waters of Meribah.

lesserot@Numbers:20:25 @ Take Aaron and Elazar, his son, and cause them to go up unto mount Hor:

lesserot@Numbers:20:26 @ And cause Aaron to take off his garments, and clothe therewith Elazar his son; and Aaron shall be gathered in, and he shall die there.

lesserot@Numbers:20:28 @ And Moses caused Aaron to take off his garments, and he clothed therewith Elazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mount; and Moses and Elazar then came down from the mount.

lesserot@Numbers:20:29 @ And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was departed, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.

lesserot@Numbers:21:1 @ And when the Canaanite, the king of ‘Arad, who dwelt in the south, heard that Israel was coming by the way of the spies: he made an attack on Israel, and took from them some prisoners.

lesserot@Numbers:21:2 @ And Israel made a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou wilt but deliver this people into my hand, then will I devote their cities.

lesserot@Numbers:21:3 @ And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Israel, and he delivered up the Canaanites; and they devoted them and their cities: and they called the name of the place Chormah.

lesserot@Numbers:21:5 @ And the people spoke against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loatheth this miserable bread.

lesserot@Numbers:21:6 @ And the Lord let loose against the people poisonous serpents, and they bit the people; and there died much people of Israel.

lesserot@Numbers:21:8 @ And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thyself a serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that whoever is bitten shall look at it, and he shall live.

lesserot@Numbers:21:10 @ And the children of Israel set forward, and encamped in Oboth.

lesserot@Numbers:21:11 @ And they journeyed from Oboth, and encamped at ‘Iye–ha’abarim, in the wilderness, which is before Moab, toward the rising of the sun.

lesserot@Numbers:21:13 @ From there they set forward, and encamped on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness, and which cometh out of the boundary of the Emorites; for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and between the Emorites.

lesserot@Numbers:21:14 @ Therefore mention is made in the book of the wars of the Lord, of Vaheb in Supha, and of the brooks of Arnon,

lesserot@Numbers:21:16 @ And from there to the well; this is the well where the Lord said unto Moses, Assemble the people and I will give them water.

lesserot@Numbers:21:23 @ But Sichon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border; and Sichon assembled all his people together; and went out against Israel into the wilderness; and he came to Yahaz, and fought against Israel.

lesserot@Numbers:21:24 @ And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and took possession of his land from Arnon unto Yabbok, even unto the children of ‘Ammon; for the border of the children of ‘Ammon was strong.

lesserot@Numbers:21:25 @ And Israel took all these cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Emorites, in Cheshbon, and in all the villages thereof.

lesserot@Numbers:21:26 @ For Cheshbon was the city of Sichon the king of the Emorites; and he had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, up to the Arnon.

lesserot@Numbers:21:27 @ Therefore said the poets, Come into Cheshbon, let the city of Sichon be built and established.

lesserot@Numbers:21:28 @ For a fire is gone out of Cheshbon, a flame from the city of Sichon: it hath consumed ‘Ar–Moab, the men of the high places of the Arnon.

lesserot@Numbers:21:29 @ Woe to thee, Moab! thou art lost, O people of Kemosh: he hath suffered his sons to become fugitives, and his daughters to go into captivity, unto the king of the Emorites, Sichon.

lesserot@Numbers:21:30 @ We have thrown them down; lost is Cheshbon even unto Dibon, and we have laid waste up to Nophach, which reacheth unto Medeba.

lesserot@Numbers:21:31 @ Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Emorites.

lesserot@Numbers:21:33 @ And they turned and went up by the way to Bashan; and ‘Og, the king of Bashan, went out against them, he, and all his people, to the battle at Edrei.

lesserot@Numbers:21:34 @ And the Lord said unto Moses, Fear him not; for into thy hand have I delivered him, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do unto him as thou hast done unto Sichon, the king of the Emorites, who dwelt at Cheshbon.

lesserot@Numbers:21:35 @ And they smote him and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left unto him that escaped; and they took possession of his land.

lesserot@Numbers:22:1 @ And the children of Israel set forward, and encamped in the plains of Moab, on this side of the Jordan, opposite Jericho.

lesserot@Numbers:22:2 @ And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Emorites.

lesserot@Numbers:22:3 @ And Moab was greatly afraid of the people, because it was numerous; and Moab was horrified because of the children of Israel.

lesserot@Numbers:22:4 @ And Moab said unto the elders of Midian, Now will this assemblage devour all that is round about us, as the ox devoureth the grass of the field; and Balak the son of Zippor was king of Moab at that time.

lesserot@Numbers:22:5 @ And he sent messengers unto Bil’am the son of Beor to Pethor, which is by the river, in the land of the children of his people, to have him called; saying, Behold, there is a people come out from Egypt; behold, it covereth the surface of the earth, and it is abiding opposite to me:

lesserot@Numbers:22:6 @ And now do but come, curse me this people; for it is too mighty for me; peradventure I may be able to smite it, that I may drive it out of the land; for I know that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed.

lesserot@Numbers:22:17 @ For I will honor thee greatly, and whatsoever thou mayest say unto me will I do: and only come, I pray thee, denounce me this people.

lesserot@Numbers:22:18 @ And Bil’am answered and said unto the servants of Balak, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not transgress the order of the Lord my God, to do a small or a great thing.

lesserot@Numbers:22:19 @ And now, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what the Lord will farther speak with me.

lesserot@Numbers:22:20 @ And God came unto Bil’am at night, and said unto him, If to call thee the men have come, rise up, go with them; but only the word which I shall speak unto thee, that shalt thou do.

lesserot@Numbers:22:21 @ And Bil’am rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.

lesserot@Numbers:22:22 @ And the anger of God was kindled, because he went; and an angel of the Lord placed himself in the way to be a hindrance to him; and he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.

lesserot@Numbers:22:23 @ And the ass saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, with his sword drawn in his hand; and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Bil’am smote the ass, to make her turn into the way.

lesserot@Numbers:22:24 @ But the angel of the Lord stepped into a path between the vineyards, a wall on this side, and a wall on that side.

lesserot@Numbers:22:30 @ And the ass said unto Bil’am, Am not I thy ass, upon which thou hast ridden from thy commencement unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? and he said, No.

lesserot@Numbers:22:31 @ Then the Lord opened the eyes of Bil’am, and he saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, with his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head and prostrated himself on his face.

lesserot@Numbers:22:32 @ And the angel of the Lord said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thy ass these three times? behold, I went out to be a hindrance; because the journey which is odious to me was too quickly begun.

lesserot@Numbers:22:36 @ And when Balak heard that Bil’am was come, he went out to meet him unto ‘Ir–Moab, which is on the border of Arnon, which is at the outmost end of the boundary.

lesserot@Numbers:23:6 @ And he returned unto him, and, lo, he was standing by his burnt–offering, he, and all the princes of Moab.

lesserot@Numbers:23:7 @ And he took up his parable, and said, From Aram did Balak send for me, the king of Moab, out of the mountains of the east, Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel.

lesserot@Numbers:23:9 @ For from the top of rocks I see him, and from hills I behold him: lo, it is a people that shall dwell alone, and among the nations it shall not be reckoned.

lesserot@Numbers:36:7 @ And the inheritance of the children of Israel shall not pass from tribe to tribe; but the children of Israel shall adhere every one to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.

lesserot@Numbers:36:8 @ And every daughter that inheriteth any possession out of any tribe of the children of Israel, shall become the wife unto one of the family of the tribe of her father; in order that the children of Israel may inherit every one the inheritance of his fathers.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:3 @ And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spoke unto the children of Israel, according to all that the Lord had commanded him concerning them;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:5 @ On this side of the Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to explain this law, saying,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:6 @ The Lord our God spoke unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have tarried long enough at this mount;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:8 @ Behold, I have given up the land before you: go in and take possession of the land which the Lord hath sworn unto your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give it unto them and to their seed after them.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:10 @ The Lord your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:13 @ Furnish for yourselves wise and understanding men, and those known among your tribes, and I will place them as chiefs over you.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:14 @ And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken is good to do.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:15 @ And I took the chiefs of your tribes, wise and known men, and I set them as heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and as officers for your tribes.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:16 @ And I commanded your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously, between a man and his brother, and between his stranger.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:17 @ Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; the small as well as the great shall ye hear; ye shall not be afraid of any man; for the judgment belongeth to God: and the cause that is too hard for you shall ye bring unto me, and I will hear it.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:21 @ Behold, the Lord thy God hath given up the land before thee: go up and take possession of it, as the Lord the God of thy fathers hath spoken unto thee; do not fear, and be not discouraged.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:25 @ And they took in their hand some of the fruit of the land, and brought it down unto us; and they brought us word again, and said, The land which the Lord our God doth give us is good.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:28 @ Whither shall we go up? our brethren have made faint our heart, saying, The people is greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to heaven; and moreover the sons of the ‘Anakim have we seen there.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:30 @ The Lord your God who goeth before you, he it is who will fight for you; all just as he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:31 @ And in the wilderness which thou hast seen, where the Lord thy God bore thee, as a man doth bear his son, on all the way that ye have gone, until ye came unto this place.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:32 @ Yet in this thing do ye not believe in the Lord your God,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:35 @ Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see that good land, which I have sworn to give unto your fathers;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:36 @ Save Caleb the son of Yephunneh, he shall see it, and to him will I give the land upon which he hath trodden, and to his children; because he hath wholly followed the Lord.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:38 @ Joshua the son of Nun, who standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: him encourage; for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:39 @ And your little ones, of whom ye said, They will become a prey, and your children who know not this day either good or evil, these shall go in thither; and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:1:41 @ And ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against the Lord; we indeed will go up and we will fight, according to all that the Lord our God hath commanded us; and ye girded on every man his weapons of war, and ye insisted to go up into the mountain.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:3 @ Ye have traveled long enough around this mountain; turn yourselves northward.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:7 @ For the Lord thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand; he hath provided for thy wandering through this great wilderness: these forty years the Lord thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:12 @ And in Seir dwelt the Chorim in times past; but the children of Esau drove them out, and they destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel hath done unto the land of his inheritance, which the Lord hath given unto them.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:13 @ Now rise up, and get you over the brook Zered; and we passed over the brook Zered.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:18 @ Thou art passing this day by the border of Moab, by ‘Ar,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:22 @ As he hath done to the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from before whom he destroyed the Chorim; and they drove them out and dwelt in their stead, even unto this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:24 @ Rise ye up, set forward, and pass over the brook Arnon; behold I have given into thy hand Sichon the king of Cheshbon, the Emorite, and his land: begin to drive him out, and contend with him in battle.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:25 @ This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the nations that are under the whole heaven; whoever will hear the report of thee, shall tremble, and shall quake because of thee.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:30 @ But Sichon, the king of Cheshbon, would not suffer our passing by him; for the Lord thy God had hardened his spirit, and had made obstinate his heart, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:31 @ And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give up Sichon and his land before thee: begin to drive him out, that thou mayest inherit his land.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:32 @ And Sichon came out against us, he and all his people, to the battle at Yahaz.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:33 @ And the Lord our God gave him up before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:34 @ And we conquered all his cities at that time, and devoted every inhabited city, and the women, and the little ones; we left none that escaped.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:2:36 @ From ‘Aro’er, which is by the bank of the brook of Arnon, and the city that is in the brook, even unto Gil’ad, there was not one city which was too strong for us; the whole did the Lord our God give up before us.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:1 @ And we turned, and went up the way to Bashan; and ‘Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to the battle at Edre’i.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:2 @ And the Lord said unto me, Fear him not; for into thy hand have I given him, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do unto him as thou hast done unto Sichon, the king of the Emorites, who dwelt at Cheshbon.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:3 @ And the Lord our God gave into our hands also ‘Og the king of Bashan, and all his people; and we smote him until none was left to him who escaped.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:4 @ And we conquered all his cities at that time, there was not a city which we took not from them, sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of ‘Og in Bashan.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:8 @ And we took at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Emorites the land which is on this side of the Jordan, from the river of Arnon unto mount Chermon;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:11 @ For only ‘Og the king of Bashan had been left of the remnant of the Rephaim; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; lo! it is in Rabbah of the children of ‘Ammon: nine cubits is its length, and four cubits its breadth, after the arm of a man.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:12 @ And of this land, of which we took possession at that time, from ‘Aro’er, which is by the river Arnon, and half mount Gil’ad, and the cities thereof, I gave unto the Reubenites and to the Gadites.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:13 @ And the rest of Gil’ad, and all Bashan, the kingdom of ‘Og, I gave unto the half tribe of Menasseh: all the region of Argob, with all Bashan, this is called the land of Rephaim.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:14 @ Yair the son of Menasseh took all the region of Argob up to the border of the Geshurites and the Ma–’achathites; and he called them the Bashan, after his own name, the villages of Yair, unto this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:18 @ And I commanded you at that time, saying, The Lord your God hath given you this land to possess it: armed shall ye pass over before your brethren the children of Israel, all that are fit to bear arms.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:20 @ Until that the Lord have given rest unto your brethren, as well as unto you, and they also have taken possession of the land which the Lord your God giveth them beyond the Jordan: then shall ye return every man unto his possession which I have given you.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:22 @ Ye shall not fear them; for the Lord your God it is who fighteth for you.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:24 @ O Lord Eternal, thou hast begun to show thy servant thy greatness, and thy mighty hand; for what God is there in heaven or on earth, that can do aught like thy works, and like thy mighty deeds?

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:25 @ Let me go over, I pray thee, that I may see the good land which is on the other side of the Jordan, this goodly mountain, and the Lebanon.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:26 @ But the Lord was wroth with me for your sakes, and he would not hear me: and the Lord said unto me, Let it suffice thee; do not continue to speak unto me any more of this matter.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:27 @ Get thee up unto the top of Pisgah, and lift up thy eyes, westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold it with thy eyes; for thou shalt not pass over this Jordan.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:3:28 @ And do thou charge Joshua, and strengthen him, and encourage him; for he shall go over before this people, and he shall divide out to them the land which thou shalt see.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:1 @ And now, O Israel, hearken unto the statutes and unto the ordinances which I teach you to do; in order that ye may live, and go in and take possession of the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, giveth unto you.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:2 @ Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, nor shall ye diminish aught from it; that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:4 @ But ye that did cleave unto the Lord your God, are alive, every one of you, this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:6 @ Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding before the eyes of the nations, that shall hear all these statutes, and they will say, Nothing but a wise and understanding people is this great nation.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:7 @ For what great nation is there that hath gods so nigh unto it, as is the Lord our God at all times that we call upon him.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:8 @ And what great nation is there that hath statutes and ordinances so righteous as is all this law, which I lay before you this day?

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:13 @ And he told unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, the ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:17 @ The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air of heaven,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:18 @ The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:19 @ And that thou lift not up thy eyes unto the heavens, and thou see the sun, and the moon, and the stars, all the host of heaven, and be misled to bow down to them, and to serve them, those which the Lord thy God hath assigned unto all nations under the whole heaven.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:20 @ But you did the Lord take, and he brought you forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be unto you a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:22 @ For I must die in this land; I shall not go over the Jordan; but ye will go over and take possession of this good land.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:24 @ For the Lord thy God is a consuming fire; yea, a watchful God.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:26 @ I call this day the heavens and the earth to witness against you, that ye shall soon perish from off the land whereunto ye go over the Jordan to possess it; ye shall not remain many days upon it, but ye shall surely be destroyed.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:30 @ When thou art in tribulation, and all these things have overtaken thee, in the latter end of days: then wilt thou return to the Lord thy God, and be obedient unto his voice.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:31 @ For a merciful God is the Lord thy God; he will not forsake thee, nor destroy thee; and he will not forget the covenant of thy fathers which he hath sworn unto them.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:32 @ For do but ask of former days, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and from the one end of the heavens unto the other end of the heavens, whether there hath been the like of this great thing, or whether the like of it hath been heard.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:35 @ Unto thee it was shown, that thou mightest know, that the Eternal is the God: there is none else besides him.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:36 @ Out of the heavens he caused thee to hear his voice, to correct thee: and upon the earth he caused thee to see his great fire; and his words didst thou hear out of the midst of the fire.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:37 @ And therefore, because he loved thy fathers, he chose their seed after them, and brought thee out in his presence with his mighty power out of Egypt;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:38 @ To drive out nations greater and mightier than thou art, from before thee, to bring thee in, to give unto thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:39 @ Know therefore this day, and reflect in thy heart, that the Eternal is the God in the heavens above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:40 @ And thou shalt keep his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee; and that thou mayest live many days upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, for all times.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:41 @ Then Moses set aside three cities on this side of the Jordan, toward the rising of the sun;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:42 @ That thither might flee the manslayer, who should kill his neighbor unawares, when he had not been an enemy to him in times past; and that he should flee unto one of these cities and live.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:44 @ And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel:

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:45 @ These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which Moses spoke unto the children of Israel, when they came forth out of Egypt,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:46 @ On this side of the Jordan, in the valley opposite to Beth–peor, in the land of Sichon the king of the Emorites, who dwelt at Cheshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:47 @ And they took possession of his land, and of the land of ‘Og the king of Bashan, the two kings of the Emorites, who were on this side of the Jordan toward the rising of the sun;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:48 @ From ‘Aro’er, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount Sion, which is Chermon,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:4:49 @ And all the plain on this side of the Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the declivities of Pisgah.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:5:1 @ And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and that ye may observe to do them.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:5:3 @ Not with our fathers did the Lord make this covenant, but with us, we who are here all of us alive this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:5:8 @ Thou shalt not make unto thyself any graven image, any likeness of any thing that is in the heavens above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:

lesserot@Deuteronomy:5:9 @ Thou shalt not bow thyself down unto them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:5:11 @ Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:5:14 @ But the seventh day is the sabbath in honor of the Lord thy God; on it thou shalt not do any work, neither thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man–servant, nor thy maid–servant, nor thy ox, nor thy ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: in order that thy man–servant and thy maid–servant may rest as well as thou.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:1 @ And this is the commandment, with the statutes, and the ordinances, which the Lord your God hath commanded to teach you, to do them in the land whither ye are passing over to possess it:

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:2 @ In order that you mayest fear the Lord thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and in order that thy days may be prolonged.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:3 @ Hear, therefore, O Israel, and observe to do them; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase greatly, as the Lord the God of thy fathers hath spoken to thee, the land flowing with milk and honey.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:4 @ Hear, O Israel! The Lord, our God, is the One Eternal Being.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:6 @ And these words which I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart:

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:7 @ And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and thou shalt speak of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:10 @ And it shall be, when the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land which he hath sworn unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give unto thee, great and goodly cities, which thou didst not build,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:11 @ And houses full of all good things, which thou didst not fill, and wells hewed out which thou didst not hew, vineyards and olive–trees, which thou didst not plant; and thou hast eaten and art satisfied:

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:13 @ The Lord thy God shalt thou fear, and him shalt thou serve, and by his name shalt thou swear.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:15 @ For the Lord thy God is a watchful God among you: so that the anger of the Lord thy God may not be kindled against thee, and he destroy thee from off the face of the earth.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:17 @ Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the Lord your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:18 @ And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the eyes of the Lord; in order that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and take possession of the good land which the Lord hath sworn unto thy fathers,

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:22 @ And the Lord let come signs and wonders, great and sore, on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his household, before our eyes;

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:24 @ And the Lord commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the Lord our God; that it might be well with us at all times, and that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:6:25 @ And it shall be accounted righteousness unto us, if we observe to do all this commandment before the Lord our God, as he hath commanded us.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:7:15 @ And the Lord will take away from thee all sickness; and all the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, will he not put upon thee; but he will lay them upon all those that hate thee.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:7:17 @ If thou shouldst say in thy heart, These nations are more numerous than I: how shall I be able to dispossess them?

lesserot@Deuteronomy:7:19 @ The great proofs which thy eyes have seen, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, whereby the Lord thy God brought thee out: in this wise will the Lord thy God do unto all the people of whom thou art afraid.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:7:21 @ Thou shalt not be affrighted at them; for the Lord thy God is in the midst of thee, a mighty and terrible God.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:7:25 @ The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not covet the silver or gold that is on them, so that thou wouldst take it unto thyself, lest thou be ensnared thereby; for it is an abomination to the Lord thy God.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:7:26 @ And thou shalt not bring an abomination into thy house, lest thou become accursed like it: thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it is accursed.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:8:1 @ All the commandment which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do; in order that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and take possession of the land which the Lord hath sworn unto your fathers.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:9:6 @ And thou shalt know, that not for thy righteousness doth the Lord thy God give unto thee this good land to possess it; for thou art a stiff–necked people.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:9:7 @ Remember, do not forget, how thou didst provoke the Lord thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou wentest out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, have ye been rebellious against the Lord.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:9:12 @ And the Lord said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from here; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have become corrupted; they have quickly turned aside out of the way which I have commanded them; they have made themselves a molten image.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:10:6 @ And the children of Israel took their journey from the wells of the children of Ya’akan to Mosserah: there Aaron died, and he was buried there; and Elazar his son became priest in his stead.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:10:8 @ At that time did the Lord separate the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:10:9 @ Therefore was not assigned unto Levi any portion or inheritance with his brethren: the Lord is his inheritance, as the Lord thy God hath spoken to him.

lesserot@Joshua:1:11 @ Pass through the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying, Prepare yourselves provisions; for after only three days more ye shall pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which the Lord your God giveth you, to possess it.

lesserot@Joshua:1:13 @ Remember the word which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, saying, The Lord your God hath granted you rest, and hath given you this land;

lesserot@Joshua:1:14 @ Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall remain in the land which Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan; but ye shall pass over armed before your brethren, all the mighty men of valor, and help them;

lesserot@Joshua:1:15 @ Until the Lord shall have granted your brethren rest, as he hath done to you, and they also have taken possession of the land which the Lord your God giveth them: then shall ye return unto the land of your possession, and possess it, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you on this side of the Jordan, toward the rising of the sun.

lesserot@Joshua:2:2 @ And it was told unto the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, men came in hither this night, of the children of Israel, to search out the country.

lesserot@Joshua:2:4 @ But the woman had taken the two men, and hidden them; and she said, It is true, the men came unto me, but I knew not whence they were.

lesserot@Joshua:2:11 @ And when we heard this, our heart melted, and there remained not any more courage in any man, because of you; for the Lord your God is alone God in the heavens above, and upon the earth beneath.

lesserot@Joshua:2:13 @ That ye will preserve the life of my father, and my mother, and my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.

lesserot@Joshua:2:14 @ And the men said unto her, Our life shall be to death instead of yours, if ye tell not this our business; and it shall be, when the Lord giveth us the land, that we will show thee kindness and truth.

lesserot@Joshua:2:17 @ And the men said unto her, We will be blameless of this thy oath which thou hast caused us to swear.

lesserot@Joshua:2:18 @ Behold, when we come into the land, this line of scarlet thread shalt thou bind in the window by which thou hast let us down; and thy father, and thy mother, and thy brothers, and all thy father’s household, thou must bring together unto thee into the house.

lesserot@Joshua:2:19 @ And it shall be, that whosoever will go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we will be guiltless; and whosoever will remain with thee in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if a hand be laid upon him.

lesserot@Joshua:2:20 @ And if thou tell this our business, then will we be free of thy oath which thou hast caused us to swear.

lesserot@Joshua:2:21 @ And she said, According unto your words, so be it; and she dismissed them, and they departed; and she bound the scarlet line in the window.

lesserot@Joshua:3:1 @ And Joshua rose early in the morning; and they broke up from Shittim, and came close to the Jordan, he and all the children of Israel; and they lodged there before they passed over.

lesserot@Joshua:3:4 @ Nevertheless there shall be a space between you and it, of about two thousand cubits by measure: come not near unto it, in order that ye may know the way by which ye must go; for ye have not passed this way heretofore.

lesserot@Joshua:3:7 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to make thee great in the eyes of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so will I be with thee.

lesserot@Joshua:3:9 @ And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, Approach hither, and hear the words of the Lord your God.

lesserot@Joshua:3:10 @ And Joshua said, Hereby shall ye know that the living God is in the midst of you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Emorites, and the Jebusites.

lesserot@Joshua:3:12 @ And now take yourselves twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, one man each out of every tribe.

lesserot@Joshua:3:16 @ That the waters which came down from above stood still and rose up as a wall, very far from the city Adam, which is beside Zarethan; and those that ran down toward the sea of the plain, the salt sea, failed, were cut off; and the people passed over opposite to Jericho.

lesserot@Joshua:3:17 @ And the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people had finished passing over the Jordan.

lesserot@Joshua:4:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the people had finished passing over the Jordan, That the Lord said unto Joshua, as followeth,

lesserot@Joshua:4:3 @ And command ye them, saying, Take yourselves hence out of the midst of the Jordan, out of the place where the priests’ feet stood firmly, twelve stones, and ye shall carry them over with you, and leave them in the lodging–place, where ye will lodge this night.

lesserot@Joshua:4:4 @ Then did Joshua call the twelve men, whom he had appointed out of the children of Israel, one man each out of every tribe:

lesserot@Joshua:4:5 @ And Joshua said unto them, Pass over before the ark of the Lord your God into the midst of the Jordan, and take yourselves up every man one stone upon his shoulder, according unto the number of the tribes of the children of Israel;

lesserot@Joshua:4:6 @ In order that this may be a sign among you, when your children ask in time to come, saying, What mean ye by these stones?

lesserot@Joshua:4:7 @ That ye shall answer them, That the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the Lord; when it passed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off; and these stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of Israel for ever.

lesserot@Joshua:4:8 @ And the children of Israel did so as Joshua had commanded; and they took up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, as the Lord had spoken unto Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel; and they carried them over with them unto the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.

lesserot@Joshua:4:9 @ Twelve stones also did Joshua set up in the midst of the Jordan, on the spot where the feet of the priests who bore the ark of the covenant had stood: and they have remained there unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:4:10 @ But the priests who bore the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan, until every thing was finished that the Lord had commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua; and the people hastened and passed over.

lesserot@Joshua:4:11 @ And it came to pass, when all the people had finished passing over, that the ark of the Lord passed over with the priests in the presence of the people.

lesserot@Joshua:4:12 @ And the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Menasseh, passed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses had spoken unto them:

lesserot@Joshua:4:14 @ On that day the Lord made Joshua great in the eyes of all Israel; and they feared him, as they had feared Moses, all the days of his life.

lesserot@Joshua:4:21 @ And he said unto the children of Israel, thus, When your children shall ask in time to come their fathers, saying, What mean these stones?

lesserot@Joshua:4:22 @ Then shall ye let your children know, saying, On dry land did Israel pass over this Jordan;

lesserot@Joshua:4:24 @ In order that all the nations of the earth may know the hand of the Lord, that it is mighty; in order that ye may fear the Lord your God all the days.

lesserot@Joshua:5:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Emorites, who were on the side of the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, who were by the sea, heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel, until they were passed over, that their heart melted, and there remained no more any courage in them, because of the children of Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:5:2 @ At that time the Lord said unto Joshua, Make thee sharp knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.

lesserot@Joshua:5:3 @ And Joshua made himself sharp knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of ‘Araloth.

lesserot@Joshua:5:4 @ And this is the cause why Joshua did circumcise: All the people that came out of Egypt, the males, all the men of war, died in the wilderness on the way, after their going forth out of Egypt.

lesserot@Joshua:5:5 @ For all the people that came out were circumcised; but all the people that were born in the wilderness on the way at their going forth out of Egypt, they had not circumcised.

lesserot@Joshua:5:6 @ For during forty years the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness, till there was an end of all the people, the men of war, who were come out of Egypt, who had not obeyed the voice of the Lord; unto whom the Lord had sworn that he would not let them see the land, which the Lord had sworn unto their fathers that he would give unto us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

lesserot@Joshua:5:7 @ But their children he raised up in their stead: these did Joshua circumcise; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them on the way.

lesserot@Joshua:5:8 @ And it came to pass, when the whole people had all been circumcised, that they abode in their places in the camp till they were healed.

lesserot@Joshua:5:9 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. And he called the name of the place Gilgal unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:5:10 @ And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and they prepared the passover–offering on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.

lesserot@Joshua:5:12 @ And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the corn of the land; and the children of Israel had not any more manna; but they did eat of the product of the land of Canaan during that year.

lesserot@Joshua:5:13 @ And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, a man was standing over against him with his sword drawn in his hand; and Joshua went unto him, and said to him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?

lesserot@Joshua:5:14 @ And he said, No; for I am a captain of the host of the Lord: now am I come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and bowed himself, and said to him, What doth my lord speak unto his servant?

lesserot@Joshua:5:15 @ And the captain of the Lord’s host said unto Joshua, Put off thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so.

lesserot@Joshua:6:1 @ Now Jericho was shut up, and barred up, because of the children of Israel: no one went out, and no one came in.

lesserot@Joshua:6:15 @ And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after this manner seven times; only on that day they compassed the city seven times.

lesserot@Joshua:6:17 @ And the city shall be devoted, it, and all that is therein, to the Lord: only Rachab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house; because she did hide the messengers that we sent.

lesserot@Joshua:6:18 @ But ye, keep yourselves from the devoted things, lest ye devote and yet take of the devoted things, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.

lesserot@Joshua:6:23 @ And the young men, the spies, went in, and brought out Rachab, and her father, and her mother, and her brothers, and all belonging to her: and they brought out all her kindred, and they left them without the camp of Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:6:25 @ And Rachab the harlot did Joshua save alive, and her father’s household, and all belonging to her; and she dwelt in the midst of Israel even unto this day; because she had hidden the messengers, whom Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho.

lesserot@Joshua:6:26 @ And Joshua adjured at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the Lord, that will rise up and build this city Jericho: with his first–born shall he lay its foundation, and with his youngest shall he set up its gates.

lesserot@Joshua:6:27 @ And the Lord was with Joshua; and his fame was spread throughout all the country.

lesserot@Joshua:7:1 @ But the children of Israel committed a trespass on the devoted things; for ‘Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerach, of the tribe of Judah, took of the devoted things: and the anger of the Lord was kindled against the children of Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:7:2 @ And Joshua sent men from Jericho to ‘Ai, which is beside Beth–aven, on the east side of Beth–el, and said unto them, thus, Go up and spy out the country. And the men went up and spied out ‘Ai.

lesserot@Joshua:7:6 @ And Joshua rent his clothes, and fell upon his face to the earth before the ark of the Lord until the evening, he with the elders of Israel, and they put dust upon their head.

lesserot@Joshua:7:7 @ And Joshua said, Alas, O Lord Eternal, wherefore hast thou caused this people to pass over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Emorites, to destroy us? and oh! that we had been content, and dwelt on the other side of the Jordan!

lesserot@Joshua:7:8 @ I pray thee, O Lord, what shall I say, since Israel have turned their back before their enemies!

lesserot@Joshua:7:11 @ Israel hath sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I have commanded them; and they have also taken of the devoted things, and have also stolen, and have also dissembled, and they have also put it into their own vessels.

lesserot@Joshua:7:12 @ Therefore will the children of Israel not be able to stand up before their enemies; their back will they turn before their enemies, because they have become accursed: I will not be any more with you, except ye destroy the accursed from among you.

lesserot@Joshua:7:13 @ Rise up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow; for thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, An accursed thing is in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou shalt not be able to stand up before thy enemies, until ye have removed the accursed from among you.

lesserot@Joshua:7:15 @ And it shall be, that he that is seized with the accursed thing shall be burnt with fire, he, and all that he hath; because he hath transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and because he hath wrought wickedness in Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:7:16 @ So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel near by their tribes, and the tribe of Judah was seized;

lesserot@Joshua:7:18 @ And he brought near his household by its men, and ‘Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerach, of the tribe of Judah, was seized.

lesserot@Joshua:7:19 @ And Joshua said unto ‘Achan, My son, give, I pray thee, glory to the Lord, the God of Israel, and make confession unto him; and tell me, I pray thee, what thou hast done: hide nothing from me.

lesserot@Joshua:7:20 @ And ‘Achan answered Joshua, and said, Truly! I have indeed sinned against the Lord the God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done:

lesserot@Joshua:7:21 @ I saw among the spoil a handsome Babylonish mantle, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels in weight, and I coveted them, and took them; and, behold, they are hidden in the earth in the midst of my tent, with the silver beneath the same.

lesserot@Joshua:7:22 @ Joshua thereupon sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent; and, behold, it was hidden in his tent, and the silver beneath it.

lesserot@Joshua:7:23 @ And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them unto Joshua, and unto all the children of Israel, and they laid them out before the Lord.

lesserot@Joshua:7:24 @ And Joshua took ‘Achan the son of Zerach, and the silver, and the mantle, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his ox, and his ass, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had, and all Israel were with him, and they brought them up unto the valley of ‘Achor.

lesserot@Joshua:7:25 @ And Joshua said, How hast thou troubled us! so shall the Lord trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burnt them with fire, after they had stoned them with stones.

lesserot@Joshua:7:26 @ And they raised over him a great heap of stones unto this day; and the Lord turned from the fierceness of his anger. Wherefore the name of that place was called, The valley of ‘Achor, unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:8:1 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear not, neither be thou discouraged: take with thee all the people of war, and arise, go up to ‘Ai; see, I have given into thy hand the king of ‘Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land.

lesserot@Joshua:8:7 @ And then shall ye rise up from the ambush, and take possession of the city; and the Lord your God will deliver it in into your hand.

lesserot@Joshua:8:10 @ And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and numbered the people, and went up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people, toward ‘Ai.

lesserot@Joshua:8:14 @ And it came to pass, when the king of ‘Ai saw this, the men of the city hastened and rose up early, and went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at the time appointed, before the plain; but he knew not that there was an ambush against him in the rear of the city.

lesserot@Joshua:8:15 @ And Joshua and Israel feigned themselves beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wilderness.

lesserot@Joshua:8:17 @ And there was not a man left in ‘Ai or Beth–el, that went not out after Israel; and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:8:18 @ And the Lord said unto Joshua, Stretch out the spear that is in thy hand toward ‘Ai; for into thy hand will I give it. And Joshua stretched out the spear which was in his hand toward the city.

lesserot@Joshua:8:19 @ And the ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he stretched out his hand; and they entered into the city, and took possession of it, and hastened and set the city on fire.

lesserot@Joshua:8:20 @ And the men of ‘Ai turned behind them, and they saw, and, behold, the smoke of the city ascended up to heaven; and they had no power to flee this way or that way; and the people that had fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers.

lesserot@Joshua:8:21 @ For when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had seized the city, and that the smoke of the city ascended: they turned back, and smote the men of ‘Ai.

lesserot@Joshua:8:22 @ And the others issued out of the city against them; so that the Israelites had them in the middle, some on this side, and some on that side; and they smote them, until there was not left of them one that remained or escaped.

lesserot@Joshua:8:24 @ And it came to pass, that, when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of ‘Ai in the field, in the wilderness wherein they had pursued them, and when they were all fallen by the edge of the sword, until they were consumed, All the Israelites returned unto ‘Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.

lesserot@Joshua:8:26 @ And Joshua drew not back his hand, wherewith he had stretched out the spear, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of ‘Ai.

lesserot@Joshua:8:27 @ Only the cattle and the spoil of that city Israel took as booty unto themselves, according to the word of the Lord which he had commanded Joshua.

lesserot@Joshua:8:28 @ And Joshua burnt ‘Ai, and made it a ruinous heap of desolation for ever, even unto this day,

lesserot@Joshua:8:29 @ And the king of ‘Ai he hanged on a tree until eventide; and at the going down of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took his carcass down from the tree and cast it at the entrance of the city gate, and they raised over him a great heap of stones, even unto this day.

lesserot@Joshua:8:30 @ Then did Joshua build an altar unto the Lord, the God of Israel on mount ‘Ebal,

lesserot@Joshua:8:31 @ As Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of whole stones, over which no one had lifted up any iron tool; and they offered thereon burnt–offerings unto the Lord, and sacrificed peace–offerings.

lesserot@Joshua:8:32 @ And he wrote there upon the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he wrote in the presence of the children of Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:8:33 @ And all Israel, and their elders, and the officers, and their judges, stood on this side and on that side of the ark, opposite the priests the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord, the stranger no less than the native born: half of them turned toward mount Gerizzim, and the other half of them turned toward mount ‘Ebal; as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded, to bless the people of Israel at first.

lesserot@Joshua:8:34 @ And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessing and the curse, all, just as it is written in the book of the law.

lesserot@Joshua:8:35 @ There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded, which Joshua did not read before all the congregation of Israel, with the women, and the little ones, and the stranger that walked in the midst of them.

lesserot@Joshua:9:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the kings that were on this side of the Jordan, in the mountain, and in the lowlands, and in all the coast of the great sea opposite Lebanon, the Hittites, and the Emorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, heard this,

lesserot@Joshua:9:2 @ That they assembled themselves all together, to fight with Joshua and with Israel, with one accord.

lesserot@Joshua:9:5 @ And old and patched–up shoes upon their feet, and old garments upon themselves; and all the bread of their provision was dry and mouldy.

lesserot@Joshua:9:6 @ And they went to Joshua unto the camp at Gilgal, and said unto him, and to the men of Israel, We are come from a far–off country; and now make ye a covenant with us.

lesserot@Joshua:9:7 @ And the men of Israel said unto the Hivites, Peradventure ye dwell in the midst of us; and how can we make a covenant with you:

lesserot@Joshua:9:9 @ And they said unto him, From a very far–off country are thy servants come, because of the name of the Lord thy God; for we have heard his fame, and all that he hath done in Egypt;

lesserot@Joshua:9:11 @ Wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country said to us, as followeth, Take provisions with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say unto them, Your servants are we: and now make ye with us a covenant.

lesserot@Joshua:9:12 @ This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; and now, behold, it is dry, and it is become mouldy:

lesserot@Joshua:9:14 @ And the men took of their provisions, but the decision of the Lord they did not ask.

lesserot@Joshua:9:17 @ And the children of Israel broke up, and came unto their cities on the third day; and their cities were Gib’on, and Kephirah, and Beeroth, and Kiryath–ye’arim.

lesserot@Joshua:9:18 @ And the children of Israel smote them not; because the princes of the congregation had sworn unto them by the Lord, the God of Israel; but all the congregation murmured against the princes.

lesserot@Joshua:9:19 @ And all the princes said unto all the congregation, We have sworn unto them by the Lord the God of Israel: and now we cannot touch them.

lesserot@Joshua:9:20 @ This will we do to them, and we will let them live, that there be no wrath upon us, on account of the oath which we have sworn unto them.

lesserot@Joshua:9:24 @ And they answered Joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that the Lord thy God had commanded his servant Moses to give unto you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; wherefore we were sore afraid for our lives because of you, and we have done this thing.

lesserot@Joshua:9:26 @ And he did unto them thus; and he delivered them out of the hand of the children of Israel, and they slew them not.

lesserot@Joshua:9:27 @ And Joshua appointed them on that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation, and for the altar of the Lord, even unto this day, for the place which he should choose.

lesserot@Joshua:10:1 @ Now it came to pass, when Adoni–zedek, the king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had captured ‘Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and its king, so had he done to ‘Ai and its king; and that the inhabitants of Gib’on had made peace with Israel, and were in the midst of them:

lesserot@Joshua:10:3 @ Therefore Adoni–zedek the king of Jerusalem sent unto Hoham the king of Hebron, and unto Piram the king of Yarmuth, and unto Yaphia’, the king of Lachish, and unto Debir the king of ‘Eglon, saying,

lesserot@Joshua:10:4 @ Come up unto me, and help me, that we may smite Gib’on; for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:10:5 @ And the five kings of the Emorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Yarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of ‘Eglon, assembled themselves together, and went up, they and all their camps, and encamped before Gib’on, and made war against it.

lesserot@Joshua:10:10 @ And the Lord brought them in confusion before Israel, and they smote them with a great slaughter at Gib’on, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Beth–choron, and smote them up to ‘Azekah, and up to Makkedah.

lesserot@Joshua:10:11 @ And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, while they were in the declivity of Beth–choron, that the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven, up to ‘Azekah, and they died: there were more who died by means of the hailstones than those whom the children of Israel had slain with the sword.

lesserot@Joshua:10:12 @ Then spoke Joshua to the Lord on the day when the Lord delivered up the Emorites before the children of Israel, and he said before the eyes of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gib’on; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ayalon.

lesserot@Joshua:10:13 @ And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Yashar? And the sun stood still in the midst of the heavens, and hastened not to go down about a whole day.

lesserot@Joshua:10:14 @ And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man; for the Lord fought for Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:10:15 @ And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.

lesserot@Joshua:10:20 @ And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of smiting them with a very great defeat, till they were all spent, and those that escaped had fled from them and entered into the fortified cities,

lesserot@Joshua:10:21 @ That all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: no one pointed against any man of the children of Israel his tongue.

lesserot@Joshua:10:23 @ And they did so, and brought forth unto him those five kings out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Yarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of ‘Eglon.

lesserot@Joshua:10:24 @ And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the chiefs of the men of war who had gone with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon their necks.

lesserot@Joshua:10:25 @ And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be disheartened, be strong and of good courage; for thus will the Lord do unto all your enemies against whom ye fight.

lesserot@Joshua:10:27 @ And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hidden; and they placed great stones upon the mouth of the cave, even until this very day.

lesserot@Joshua:10:29 @ Then did Joshua, and all Israel with him, pass from Makkedah unto Libnah; and he fought against Libnah;

lesserot@Joshua:10:30 @ And the Lord delivered it also into the hand of Israel, with its king; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he left none in it that escaped; and he did unto its king as he had done unto the king of Jericho.

lesserot@Joshua:10:32 @ And the Lord delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel; and he captured it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein: just as he had done to Libnah.

lesserot@Joshua:10:33 @ Then came up Horam the king of Gezer to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none that escaped.

lesserot@Joshua:10:34 @ And Joshua and all Israel with him passed from Lachish unto ‘Eglon; and they encamped against it, and fought against it;

lesserot@Joshua:10:35 @ And they captured it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword; and all the souls that were therein he devoted on that day: just as he had done to Lachish.

lesserot@Joshua:10:36 @ And Joshua and all Israel with him went up from ‘Eglon unto Hebron; and they fought against it;

lesserot@Joshua:10:38 @ And Joshua and all Israel with him returned to Debir; and fought against it;

lesserot@Joshua:10:40 @ And Joshua smote all the country, the mountain, and the south, and the lowlands, and the declivities, and all their kings; he left none that escaped; and all that breathed he utterly destroyed, as the Lord, the God of Israel had commanded.

lesserot@Joshua:10:42 @ And all these kings and their land did Joshua capture at one time; because the Lord, the God of Israel fought for Israel.

lesserot@Joshua:24:2 @ And Joshua said unto all the people, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, On the other side of the river did your fathers dwell in old time, even Terach, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nachor; and they served other gods.

lesserot@Joshua:24:3 @ And I took your father Abraham from the other side of the river, and I led him throughout all the land of Canaan; and I multiplied his seed, and gave him Isaac.

lesserot@Joshua:24:4 @ And I gave unto Isaac, Jacob and Esau: and I gave unto Esau mount Seir, to possess it; but Jacob and his children went down into Egypt.

lesserot@Joshua:24:9 @ Then Balak the son of Zippor, the king of Moab, arose and warred against Israel; and he sent and called Bil’am the son of Beor to curse you;

lesserot@Joshua:24:10 @ And I would not hearken unto Bil’am; but he had to bless you instead: and I delivered you out of his hand.

lesserot@Joshua:24:15 @ And if it be displeasing in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom ye will serve: whether the gods which your fathers that were on the other side of the river served, or the gods of the Emorites, in whose land ye dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

lesserot@Joshua:24:17 @ For the Lord our God it is that hath brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery, and who hath done those great signs before our eyes, and preserved us upon all the way whereon we have gone, and among all the people through the midst of whom we have passed:

lesserot@Joshua:24:18 @ And the Lord hath driven out all the nations, and the Emorites who dwelt in the land, from before us; therefore also will we serve the Lord; for he is our God.

lesserot@Joshua:24:19 @ And Joshua said unto the people, Ye will not be able to serve the Lord; for he is a holy God; he is a watchful God; he will not have any indulgence for your transgressions and for your sins;

lesserot@Joshua:24:33 @ And Elazar the son of Aaron died; and they buried him on the hill of Phinehas his son, which was given him in the mountain of Ephraim.

lesserot@Judges:1:2 @ And the Lord said, Judah shall go up; behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.

lesserot@Judges:1:3 @ And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, and we will fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot. So Simeon went with him.

lesserot@Judges:2:4 @ And it came to pass, when the messenger of the Lord spoke these words unto all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.

lesserot@Judges:2:6 @ And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to take possession of the land.

lesserot@Judges:2:14 @ And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of spoilers who spoiled them, and he sold them into the hand of their enemies round about, and they were not able any longer to stand before their enemies.

lesserot@Judges:2:15 @ Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had spoken, and as the Lord had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed.

lesserot@Judges:2:18 @ And when the Lord raised them up judges, then was the Lord with the judge, and he delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the Lord bethought himself because of their groaning by reason of those that oppressed them and ill–treated them.

lesserot@Judges:3:14 @ And the children of Israel served ‘Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.

lesserot@Judges:3:15 @ But the children of Israel cried then unto the Lord; and the Lord raised up unto them a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera a Benjamite, a man who was lamed in his right hand; and the children of Israel sent by him a present unto ‘Eglon the king of Moab.

lesserot@Judges:3:16 @ But Ehud made himself a sword which had two edges, of a cubit length; and he girded it under his garments upon his right thigh.

lesserot@Judges:3:19 @ But he himself returned again from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret word unto thee, O King. And he said, Keep silence. And thereupon went out from his presence all that stood by him.

lesserot@Judges:3:20 @ And Ehud came in unto him; and he was sitting in the summer upper chamber, which was for himself alone. And Ehud said, I have a word of God unto thee. And he arose out of his chair.

lesserot@Judges:3:21 @ And Ehud stretched forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his body.

lesserot@Judges:3:22 @ And the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade; for he did not draw the sword out of his body, and it passed into the fundament.

lesserot@Judges:3:24 @ He was just gone out, when his servants came; and they saw, behold, the doors of the upper chamber were locked; and they said, Surely he covereth his feet in the summer chamber.

lesserot@Judges:3:27 @ And it came to pass, when he was come, that he blew the cornet on the mountain of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the mountain, and he before them.

lesserot@Judges:3:30 @ And Moab was humbled that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest eighty years.

lesserot@Judges:3:31 @ And after him was Shamgar the son of ‘Anath, who smote of the philistines six hundred men with an ox–goad; and he also delivered Israel.

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

lesserot@Judges:4:2 @ And the Lord sold them into the hand of Yabin the king of Canaan, that reigned in Chazor; and the captain of his army was Sissera, who dwelt in Charosheth–hagoyim.

lesserot@Judges:4:3 @ And the children of Israel cried unto the Lord; for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and he oppressed the children of Israel with might twenty years.

lesserot@Judges:4:4 @ And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth,––she judged Israel at that time.

lesserot@Judges:4:5 @ And she held her sitting under the palm–tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth–el on the mountain of Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.

lesserot@Judges:4:6 @ And she sent and called Barak the son of Abino’am out of Kedesh–naphtali; and she said unto him, Behold, the Lord the God of Israel hath commanded, Go and lead on toward mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun.

lesserot@Judges:4:7 @ And I will draw unto thee, to the brook Kishon, Sissera, the captain of Yabin’s army, and his chariots and his multitude; and I will give him up into thy hand.

lesserot@Judges:4:9 @ And she said, I will indeed go with thee; nevertheless it will not be for thy honor, on the way which thou goest; for into the hand of a woman will the Lord deliver Sissera; and Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.

lesserot@Judges:4:10 @ And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh; and there went up in his train ten thousand men; also Deborah went up with him.

lesserot@Judges:4:11 @ Now Cheber the Kenite had severed himself from the Kenites, from the children of Chobab the father–in–law of Moses; and he had pitched his tent as far as Elon–beza’anannim, which is near Kedesh.

lesserot@Judges:4:12 @ And they told Sissera that Barak the son of Abino’am was gone up to mount Tabor.

lesserot@Judges:4:13 @ And Sissera called together all his chariots, nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, from Charosheth–hagoyim unto the brook Kishon.

lesserot@Judges:4:14 @ And Deborah said unto Barak, Up! for this is the day on which the Lord hath given Sissera into thy hand; behold, the Lord is gone out before thee: so Barak went down from mount Tabor, with ten thousand men after him.

lesserot@Judges:4:15 @ And the Lord confounded Sissera, and all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sissera alighted from his chariot, and fled away on foot.

lesserot@Judges:4:16 @ And Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the army, unto Charosheth–hagoyim: and all the army of Sissera fell by the edge of the sword; there was not left even one.

lesserot@Judges:4:17 @ But Sissera had fled away on foot to the tent of Ja’el the wife of Cheber the Kenite; for there was peace between Yabin the king of Chazor and the house of Cheber the Kenite.

lesserot@Judges:4:18 @ And Ja’el went out to meet Sissera, and said unto him, Turn in, my lord, turn in unto me, fear not: and he turned in unto her into the tent, and she covered him with a blanket.

lesserot@Judges:4:20 @ And he said unto her, Stand at the door of the tent; and it shall be, that, when any man should come and ask of thee, and say, Is there any man here? thou shalt say, No.

lesserot@Judges:4:21 @ And Ja’el the wife of Cheber took thereupon the nail of the tent, and placed a hammer in her hand, and went softly unto him, and struck the nail into his temple, and it became fastened in the ground; but he was fast asleep and weary; so he died.

lesserot@Judges:4:22 @ And, behold, Barak came in pursuit of Sissera, and Ja’el came out to meet him, and said unto him, Come, and I will show thee the man whom thou art seeking: and he came to her, and behold, Sissera was lying dead, with the nail in his temple.

lesserot@Judges:4:23 @ So did God humble on that day Yabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.

lesserot@Judges:4:24 @ And the hand of the children of Israel became constantly heavier upon Yabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Yabin the king of Canaan.

lesserot@Judges:5:2 @ When depravity had broken out in Israel, then did the people offer themselves willingly; praise ye the Lord.

lesserot@Judges:5:7 @ Desolate were the open towns in Israel, they were desolate, until that I arose, Deborah, that I arose a mother in Israel.

lesserot@Judges:5:9 @ My heart to the governors of Israel, that offered themselves willingly among the people: praise ye the Lord.

lesserot@Judges:5:10 @ Ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and ye who walk on the way, utter praise!

lesserot@Judges:5:11 @ by the voice of those who divide between the watering wells, there shall they rehearse the benefits of the Lord, the benefits toward his open towns in Israel; now go down to the gates the people of the Lord.

lesserot@Judges:5:14 @ They whose root is out of Ephraim were against ‘Amalek; after thee, Benjamin, with thy armies; out of Machir came down lawgivers, and out of Zebulun they that handle the pen of the writer.

lesserot@Judges:5:15 @ And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; yea Issachar, the support of Barak; into the valley he hastened down in his train; at the streams of Reuben there were great thoughts of heart.

lesserot@Judges:5:17 @ Gil’ad abode beyond the Jordan; and Dan––why would he tarry in ships? Asher remained on the seashore, and abode near his bays.

lesserot@Judges:5:20 @ From heaven they fought––the stars in their courses fought against Sissera.

lesserot@Judges:5:21 @ The stream of Kishon swept them away, that ancient stream, the stream of Kishon: step along, O my soul, in victorious strength.

lesserot@Judges:5:25 @ Water he asked, milk she gave: in a lordly dish she brought him cream.

lesserot@Judges:5:26 @ Her hand she put forth to the nail, and her right hand to the laborious workmen’s hammer; and she hammered Sissera, she struck his head, and crushed and smote through his temple.

lesserot@Judges:5:28 @ Out of the window looked and moaned the mother of Sissera, through the lattice, Why tarrieth his chariot so long in coming? why lag the wheels of his chariot?

lesserot@Judges:5:29 @ The wise among her ladies answered her, she also returned a reply to herself.

lesserot@Judges:5:30 @ Will they not find,––divide booty? one maiden, two maidens for every man, a booty of colored garments for Sissera, a booty of colored embroidered garments, colored, double–worked garments round the necks of the captives!

lesserot@Judges:5:31 @ Thus may perish all thy enemies, O Lord; but may those that love him be as the rising of the sun in his might. And the land had rest forty years.

lesserot@Judges:6:1 @ And the children of Israel did the evil in the eyes of the Lord: and the Lord delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years.

lesserot@Judges:6:2 @ And the hand of Midian prevailed over Israel; and because of the Midianites the children of Israel made for themselves the passes which are in the mountains, and the caves, and the strongholds.

lesserot@Judges:6:3 @ And it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the ‘Amalekites, and the children of the east, and they went up against them;

lesserot@Judges:6:4 @ And they encamped against them, and destroyed the products of the earth, as far as Gazzah, and they left no sustenance for Israel, neither lamb, nor ox, nor ass.

lesserot@Judges:6:6 @ And Israel was greatly impoverished because of the Midianites; and the children of Israel cried unto the Lord.

lesserot@Judges:6:7 @ And it came to pass, when the children of Israel had cried unto the Lord because of the Midianites,

lesserot@Judges:6:8 @ That the Lord sent a prophet unto the children of Israel, and he said unto them, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, I led you forth out of Egypt, and brought you out of the house of slavery;

lesserot@Judges:6:12 @ And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valor.

lesserot@Judges:6:13 @ And Gid’on said unto him, Pardon, my lord, if the Lord be indeed with us, why then hath all this befallen us? and where are all his wonders of which our fathers have told us, saying, Did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt! But now the Lord hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hand of Midian.

lesserot@Judges:6:14 @ And the Lord turned toward him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: behold, I have sent thee.

lesserot@Judges:6:20 @ And the angel of God said unto him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay them upon this rock, and the broth pour out. And he did so.

lesserot@Judges:6:21 @ Then the angel of the Lord put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there rose up fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes. And the angel of the Lord departed out of his sight.

lesserot@Judges:6:24 @ And Gid’on built there an altar unto the Lord, and called it Adonay–shalom unto this day it is yet in Ophrah of the Abi’ezrites.

lesserot@Judges:6:25 @ And it came to pass in the same night, that the Lord said unto him, Take thy father’s young bullock, and the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal which belongeth to thy father, and the grove that is around it shalt thou cut down.

lesserot@Judges:6:26 @ And build an altar unto the Lord thy God upon the top of this rock, on the level place, and take the second bullock, and offer a burnt–sacrifice with the wood of the grove which thou shalt cut down.

lesserot@Judges:6:27 @ And Gid’on took ten men of his servants, and did as the Lord had spoken unto him; but it came to pass, because he feared his father’s household, and the men of the city, to do it by day, that he did it by night.

lesserot@Judges:6:29 @ And they said one to another, Who hath done this thing? And they inquired and searched, and then said, Gid’on the son of Joash hath done this thing.

lesserot@Judges:6:31 @ But Joash said unto all that stood around him, Will ye indeed contend for Baal? will ye assist him? he that will contend for him, shall be put to death; until morning: if he be a god, let him contend for himself, because one hath overthrown his altar.

lesserot@Judges:6:32 @ And the people called him on that day Yerubba’al, saying, Let Baal contend against him, because he hath overthrown his altar.

lesserot@Judges:6:36 @ And Gid’on said unto God, If thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast spoken,

lesserot@Judges:6:37 @ Behold, I set up this fleece of wool in the threshing floor: if now there be dew on the fleece alone, and it be dry upon all the ground, then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast spoken.

lesserot@Judges:6:39 @ And Gid’on said unto God, Let not thy anger be kindled against me, and I will speak but this once; let me have a proof, I pray thee, but this once more with the fleece; let it, I pray, be dry upon the fleece alone, and upon all the ground let there be dew.

lesserot@Judges:7:1 @ Then Yerubba’al, who is Gid’on, and all the people that were with him, rose up early, and encamped beside the spring of Charod; and the camp of the Midianites was on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.

lesserot@Judges:7:2 @ And the Lord said unto Gid’on, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand: lest Israel should vaunt themselves against me, saying, my own hand hath saved me.

lesserot@Judges:7:3 @ Now therefore, do proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whosoever is fearful and afraid, let him return and depart early from mount Gil’ad. And there returned of the people twenty and two thousand; and ten thousand remained.

lesserot@Judges:7:4 @ And the Lord said unto Gid’on, The people are yet too many; let them go down unto the water, and I will try them for thee there: and it shall be, that of whom I will say unto thee, This one shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee: and of whomsoever I will say unto thee, This one shall not go with thee, the same shall not go.

lesserot@Judges:7:5 @ So he caused the people to go down unto the water: and the Lord said unto Gid’on, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as the dog lappeth, him shalt thou set by himself; likewise every one that bendeth down upon his knees to drink.

lesserot@Judges:7:7 @ And the Lord said unto Gid’on, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thy hand; and let all the other people go every man unto his place.

lesserot@Judges:7:8 @ And they took the provision of the people in their hand, and their cornets; and all the rest of Israel he dismissed, every man unto his tent; but those three hundred men he retained: and the camp of Midian was beneath him in the valley.

lesserot@Judges:7:9 @ And it came to pass, during the same night, that the Lord said unto him, Arise, get thee down into the camp; for I have delivered it into thy hand.

lesserot@Judges:7:11 @ And thou shalt hear what they will say; and after that shall thy hands be strengthened, and thou wilt go down unto the camp. And he went down with Purah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that were in the camp.

lesserot@Judges:7:12 @ And the Midianites and the ‘Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like the locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand which is by the seaside for multitude.

lesserot@Judges:7:13 @ And when Gid’on was come, behold, a man was telling a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream, and, lo, a baked cake of barley bread was rolling round through the camp of Midian, and came unto the tent, and struck against it so that it fell, and it turned it bottom upward, and the tent thus tumbled down.

lesserot@Judges:7:14 @ And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gid’on the son of Joash, a man of Israel; into whose hand God hath delivered Midian, and the whole camp.

lesserot@Judges:7:15 @ And it was, when Gid’on heard the narration of the dream, and its interpretation, that he prostrated himself, and returned unto the camp of Israel, and said, Arise; for the Lord hath delivered into your hand the camp of Midian.

lesserot@Judges:7:17 @ And he said unto them, What you see me do, do ye likewise; and, behold, when I am come to the edge of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall ye do.

lesserot@Judges:7:21 @ And they remained standing every man in his place round about the camp; and all the camp ran, and shouted, and fled.

lesserot@Judges:7:22 @ And as the three hundred cornets sounded, the Lord set every man’s sword against his fellow, even throughout all the camp; and the camp fled as far as Beth–hashittah to Zererah, up to the border of Abelmecholah, near Tabbath.

lesserot@Judges:7:23 @ And the men of Israel were called together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Menasseh, and they pursued after the Midianites.

lesserot@Judges:8:1 @ And the men of Ephraim said unto him, What is this thing that thou hast done unto us, not to call for us, when thou wentest to fight with the Midianites? And they quarrelled with him vehemently.

lesserot@Judges:8:2 @ And he said unto them, What have I done now in comparison with you? Is not the gleaning of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abi’ezer?

lesserot@Judges:8:3 @ Into your hand God delivered the princes of Midian, ‘Oreb and Zeeb: and what have I been able to do in comparison with you? Then was their anger abated from him, when he had spoken this speech.

lesserot@Judges:8:6 @ And the princes of Succoth said, Is the sole of the foot of Zebach and Zalmunna’ now already in thy hand, that we should give unto thy army bread?

lesserot@Judges:8:9 @ And he said also unto the men of Penuel thus, When I return again in peace, I will break down this tower.

lesserot@Judges:8:12 @ And Zebach and Zalmunna’ fled; but he pursued after them, and captured the two kings of Midian, Zebach and Zalmunna’, and all the camp he discomfited.

lesserot@Judges:8:13 @ And Gid’on the son of Joash returned from the battle before the rising of the sun,

lesserot@Judges:8:15 @ And he came unto the men of Succoth, and said, Behold here are Zebach and Zalmunna’, with whom ye derided me, saying, Is the sole of the foot of Zebach and Zalmunna’ now already in thy hand, that we should give unto thy weary men bread?

lesserot@Judges:8:16 @ And he took the elders of the city, and the thorns of the wilderness and briers, and chastised with them the men of Succoth.

lesserot@Judges:8:20 @ And he said unto Yether his first–born, Rise up, and slay them. But the youth drew not his sword; for he was afraid, because he was yet a youth.

lesserot@Judges:8:21 @ Then said Zebach and Zalmunna’, Rise thou, and fall upon us; for as the man is, so is his strength. And Gid’on arose, and slew Zebach and Zalmunna’; and he took away the crescent ornaments that were on the necks of their camels.

lesserot@Judges:8:22 @ And the men of Israel said unto Gid’on, Rule thou over us, both thou and thy son, and thy son’s son also; for thou hast delivered us out of the hand of Midian.

lesserot@Judges:8:24 @ And Gid’on said unto them, I would ask one request of you, that ye should give me every man the earring of his booty; for they had had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.

lesserot@Judges:8:25 @ And they answered, We will willingly give. And they spread out a garment, and they cast therein every man the earring of his booty.

lesserot@Judges:8:27 @ And Gid’on made thereof an ephod, and set it up in his city, in ‘Ophrah: and all Israel went astray after it thither; and it became a snare unto Gid’on, and to his house.

lesserot@Judges:8:28 @ And Midian was humbled before the children of Israel, so that they lifted not up their head any more. And the country was quiet forty years in the days of Gid’on.

lesserot@Judges:8:29 @ And Yerubba’al the son of Joash went and dwelt in his own house.

lesserot@Judges:8:30 @ And Gid’on had seventy sons begotten of his body; for he had many wives.

lesserot@Judges:8:31 @ And his concubine that was in Shechem, she also bore him a son, and he gave him the name, Abimelech.

lesserot@Judges:8:32 @ And Gid’on the son of Joash died in a good old age, and was buried in the sepulchre of Joash his father, in ‘Ophrah of the Abi’ezrites.

lesserot@Judges:8:33 @ And it came to pass, when Gid’on was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and went astray after the Be’alim, and made themselves Ba’al–berith for a god.

lesserot@Judges:8:34 @ And the children of Israel remembered not the Lord their God, who delivered them out of the hand of all their enemies on every side.

lesserot@Judges:8:35 @ Neither showed they kindness to the house of Yerubba’al, namely, Gid’on, in accordance with all the good which he had done unto Israel.

lesserot@Judges:9:1 @ And Abimelech the son of Yerubba’al went to Shechem unto his mother’s brothers, and spoke unto them, and unto all the family of the house of his mother’s father, saying,

lesserot@Judges:9:2 @ Speak, I pray you, in the ears of all the men of Shechem, What is better for you, either that there should rule over you seventy men, all the sons of Yerubba’al, or that there reign over you one man? and remember that I am your bone and your flesh.

lesserot@Judges:9:3 @ And his mother’s brothers spoke concerning him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words; and their heart became inclined after Abimelech; for they said, He is our brother.

lesserot@Judges:9:5 @ And he came unto his father’s house at ‘Ophrah, and slew his brothers the sons of Yeruhba’al, seventy persons, upon one stone; and there was yet left Yotham the youngest son of Yerubba’al; for he had hidden himself.

lesserot@Judges:9:7 @ And they told it to Yotham; and he went and stood on the top of mount Gerizzim, and he lifted up his voice, and cried; and he said unto them, Hearken unto me, ye men of Shechem, so that God may hearken unto you.

lesserot@Judges:9:16 @ And now, if ye have acted in truth and sincerity, when ye made Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Yerubba’al and his house, and have done unto him according to the merit of his hands;

lesserot@Judges:9:17 @ (In that my father fought for you, and cast his life far away, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian;

lesserot@Judges:9:18 @ While ye are risen up against my father’s house this day, and have slain his sons, seventy men, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maid–servant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother;)

lesserot@Judges:9:19 @ If ye have thus acted in truth and sincerity with Yerubba’al and with his house this day: then rejoice ye in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you.

lesserot@Judges:9:21 @ And Yotham ran away, and fled, and went to Beer, and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.

lesserot@Judges:9:22 @ And Abimelech ruled over Israel three years;

lesserot@Judges:9:24 @ So that the violence to the seventy sons of Yerubba’al might come, and their blood be laid upon Abimelech their brother, who had slain them; and upon the men of Shechem, who had strengthened his hands to slay his brothers.

lesserot@Judges:9:26 @ And there came Ga’al the son of ‘Ebed with his brothers, and passed through Shechem: and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him.

lesserot@Judges:9:28 @ And Ga’al the son of ‘Ebed said, Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? is not he the son of Yerubba’al? and Zebul his superintendent? serve the men of Chamor the father of Shechem; for why indeed should we serve him?

lesserot@Judges:9:29 @ And O that some one would put this people into my power! and I would remove Abimelech. And he let it be said to Abimelech, Increase thy army, and come out.

lesserot@Judges:9:30 @ And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Ga’al the son of ‘Ebed, his anger was kindled.

lesserot@Judges:9:31 @ And he sent messengers unto Abimelech privately, saying, Behold, Ga’al the son of ‘Ebed and his brothers are come to Shechem; and, behold, they incite the city to enmity against thee.

lesserot@Judges:9:32 @ And now rise up by night, thou and the people that are with thee, and lie in wait in the field:

lesserot@Judges:9:33 @ And it shall be, in the morning, the moment the sun shineth, that thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city; and, behold, when he and the people that are with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to him as thy means may let thee.

lesserot@Judges:9:37 @ And Ga’al spoke again and said, See people are coming down from the highest point of the land, and one company is coming along by the way of the grove of Me’onenim.

lesserot@Judges:9:38 @ Then said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him! is not this the people that thou hast despised? go out now, I pray, and fight with them.

lesserot@Judges:9:41 @ And Abimelech remained at Arumah: and Zebul banished Ga’al and his brothers, that they should not remain in Shechem.

lesserot@Judges:9:46 @ And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard this, they entered into the stronghold of the house of the god Berith.

lesserot@Judges:9:48 @ And Abimelech went thereupon up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people that were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from a tree, and bore it, and laid it on his shoulder; and he said unto the people that were with him, What ye have seen that I have done, make haste, and do like me.

lesserot@Judges:9:49 @ And all the people also cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put the same to the stronghold, and set the stronghold over them on fire: and thus died also all the people of the tower of Shechem, about a thousand men and women.

lesserot@Judges:9:53 @ But a certain woman cast a piece of an upper millstone upon Abimelech’s head, and crushed his skull.

lesserot@Judges:9:54 @ Then called he hastily unto the young man that bore his armor, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that people may not say of me, A woman hath slain him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died.

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

lesserot@Judges:9:56 @ Thus did God compensate the evil of Abimelech, which he had done unto his father, in slaying his seventy brothers:

lesserot@Judges:10:1 @ And there arose after Abimelech to deliver Israel Tola’ the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in the mountain of Ephraim.

lesserot@Judges:10:2 @ And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and then died, and was buried in Shamir.

lesserot@Judges:10:3 @ And after him arose Yair, the Gil’adite, and judged Israel twenty and two years;

lesserot@Judges:10:4 @ And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty ass–colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Chavvoth–yair unto this day, which are in the land of Gil’ad.

lesserot@Judges:10:6 @ And the children of Israel repeated to do the evil in the eyes of the Lord, and they served the Be’alim, and ‘Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of ‘Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and they forsook the Lord, and served not him.

lesserot@Judges:10:7 @ And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the children of ‘Ammon.

lesserot@Judges:10:8 @ And they afflicted and oppressed the children of Israel that year; for eighteen years all the children of Israel that were on the other side of the Jordan in the land of the Emorites, which is in Gil’ad.

lesserot@Judges:10:9 @ And the children of ‘Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was sorely distressed.

lesserot@Judges:10:10 @ And the children of Israel cried unto the Lord, saying, We have sinned against thee, because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Be’alim.

lesserot@Judges:10:11 @ And the Lord said unto the children of Israel, Behold from the Egyptians, and from the Emorites, from the children of ‘Ammon, and from the Philistines.

lesserot@Judges:10:15 @ And the children of Israel said unto the Lord, We have sinned: do thou unto us entirely as it seemeth good in thy eyes; only deliver us, we pray thee, this time.

lesserot@Judges:10:16 @ And they put away the strange gods from their midst, and served the Lord; and his soul was grieved for the trouble of Israel.

lesserot@Judges:10:17 @ And the children of ‘Ammon were called together, and they encamped in Gil’ad. And the children of Israel also assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpah.

lesserot@Judges:11:3 @ And Yiphthach fled away from his brothers, and dwelt in the land of Tob; and there gathered themselves to Yiphthach idle men, and they went out with him.

lesserot@Judges:11:4 @ And it came to pass after some time, that the children of ‘Ammon made war against Israel.

lesserot@Judges:11:5 @ And it was so, when the children of ‘Ammon made war against Israel, that the elders of Gil’ad went to fetch Yiphthach out of the land of Tob.

lesserot@Judges:11:7 @ And Yiphthach said unto the elders of Gil’ad, Did ye not hate me, and drive me away out of my father’s house? and why are ye come unto me now, when ye are in distress?

lesserot@Judges:11:11 @ Then went Yiphthach with the elders of Gil’ad, and the people appointed him over them as head and as leader; and Yiphthach spoke all his words before the Lord in Mitzpah.

lesserot@Judges:11:13 @ And the king of the children of ‘Ammon said unto the messengers of Yiphthach, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even unto the Yabbok, and unto the Jordan: and now restore these again in peace.

lesserot@Judges:11:15 @ And he said unto him, Thus hath said Yiphthach, Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of ‘Ammon;

lesserot@Judges:11:16 @ For when they came up out of Egypt, Israel walked through the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh;

lesserot@Judges:11:17 @ And Israel then sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me pass, I pray thee, through thy land; but the king of Edom would not hearken; and also to the king of Moab they sent; but he would not consent: and Israel remained in Kadesh.

lesserot@Judges:11:18 @ Then they wandered through the wilderness, and traveled round the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came from the rising of the sun to the land of Moab, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon: but they came not within the border of Moab; for the Arnon is the boundary of Moab.

lesserot@Judges:11:19 @ And Israel sent messengers unto Sichon the king of the Emorites, the king of Cheshbon; and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land unto my place.

lesserot@Judges:11:20 @ But Sichon trusted not Israel to pass through his territory; and Sichon assembled all his people, and encamped in Yahaz, and fought against Israel.

lesserot@Judges:11:21 @ and the Lord the God of Israel delivered Sichon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them; and Israel took possession of all the land of the Emorites, the inhabitants of that country.

lesserot@Judges:11:23 @ So now the Lord the God of Israel hath dispossessed the Emorites from before his people Israel, and shouldst thou possess it?

lesserot@Judges:11:25 @ And now art thou then any better than Balak the son of Zippor, the king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them?

lesserot@Judges:11:26 @ while Israel hath dwelt in Cheshbon and in its towns, and in ‘Ar’or and in its towns, and in all the cities that are along the margins of the Arnon, three hundred years: why did ye not recover them within that time?

lesserot@Judges:11:27 @ Whereas I myself have not sinned against thee, and thou doest me wrong to war against me: may the Lord, the Judge, decide this day between the children of Israel and the children of ‘Ammon.

lesserot@Judges:11:32 @ So Yiphthach passed over unto the children of ‘Ammon to fight against them: and the Lord delivered them into his hand.

lesserot@Judges:11:33 @ And he smote them from ‘Aro’er, even till thou comest to Minnith, twenty cities, and unto Abel–keramin, with a very great defeat; and the children of ‘Ammon were humbled before the children of Israel.

lesserot@Judges:11:34 @ And Yiphthach came to Mizpah unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his sole child; he had beside her neither son nor daughter.

lesserot@Judges:11:35 @ And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his garments, and said, Alas, my daughter! thou hast bent me down very low, and thou art one of those that trouble me; for I have opened my mouth unto the Lord, and I cannot go back.

lesserot@Judges:11:37 @ And she said unto her father, Let this thing be done for me: Let me alone two months, that I may descend to the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I with my companions.

lesserot@Judges:11:39 @ And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, and he fulfilled on her his vow which he had vowed; and she knew no man; and it became a custom in Israel,

lesserot@Judges:11:40 @ That the daughters of Israel went from year to year to lament for the daughter of Yiphthach the Gil’adite four days in the year.

lesserot@Judges:12:3 @ And when I saw that ye helped me not, I put my life in my hand, and passed over to the children of ‘Ammon, and the Lord delivered them into my hand; and why then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?

lesserot@Judges:12:4 @ Then Yiphthach gathered together all the men of Gil’ad, and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gil’ad smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye are fugitives of Ephraim: Gil’ad is in the midst, between Ephraim and Menasseh.

lesserot@Judges:12:7 @ And Yiphthach judged Israel six years; and then died Yiphthach the Gil’adite, and was buried in the cities of Gil’ad.

lesserot@Judges:12:8 @ And after him there judged Israel Ibzan of Beth–lechem.

lesserot@Judges:12:9 @ And he had thirty sons; and thirty daughters he sent abroad, and thirty daughters he brought in for his sons from abroad: and he judged Israel seven years.

lesserot@Judges:12:11 @ And after him there judged Israel Elon the Zebulonite; and he judged Israel ten years.

lesserot@Judges:12:13 @ And after him there judged Israel ‘Abdon the son of Hillel the Pir’athonite.

lesserot@Judges:12:14 @ And he had forty sons and thirty grandsons, that rode on seventy ass–colts; and he judged Israel eight years.

lesserot@Judges:13:1 @ And the children of Israel did again the evil in the eyes of the Lord; and the Lord delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.

lesserot@Judges:13:2 @ And there was a certain man of Zor’ah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoach; and his wife was barren, and did not bear.

lesserot@Judges:13:5 @ For, lo, thou wilt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head; for a Nazarite of God shall the lad be from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.

lesserot@Judges:13:6 @ And the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his appearance was like the appearance of an angel of God, very terrible; but I asked him not whence he might be, and his name he did not tell me.

lesserot@Judges:13:7 @ And he said unto me, Behold, thou wilt conceive, and bear a son; and now thou must drink neither wine nor strong drink, and not eat anything unclean; for the child shall be a Nazarite of God from the womb until the day of his death.

lesserot@Judges:13:8 @ And Manoach entreated the Lord, and said, Hear me, O Lord, let the man of God, whom thou didst send, come again unto us, and instruct us what we shall do unto the child that is to be born.

lesserot@Judges:13:11 @ And Manoach arose, and went after his wife; and he came to the man, and said unto him, Art thou the man that spokest unto the woman? and he said, I am.

lesserot@Judges:13:17 @ And Manoach said unto the angel of the Lord, What is thy name, that, when thy word cometh to pass, we may do thee honor?

lesserot@Judges:13:18 @ And the angel of the Lord said unto him, Why is it that thou wilt ask after my name, seeing it is secret?

lesserot@Judges:13:19 @ And Manoach took the kid and the meat–offering, and offered it upon the rock unto the Lord: and he did wondrously; and Manoach and his wife looked on.

lesserot@Judges:13:20 @ And it came to pass, when the flame went up from off the altar toward heaven, that the angel of the Lord ascended in the flame of the altar; and Manoach and his wife looked on, and they fell on their faces to the ground.

lesserot@Judges:13:21 @ And the angel of the Lord was no longer visible to Manoach and to his wife: then knew Manoach that he was an angel of the Lord.

lesserot@Judges:13:22 @ And Manoach said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because a divine being have we seen.

lesserot@Judges:13:23 @ But his wife said unto him, If the Lord were pleased to kill us, he would not have received from our hand a burnt–offering and a meat–offering, nor would he have let us see all these things, and at this time he would not have let us hear as this.

lesserot@Judges:13:24 @ And the woman bore a son, and called his name Samson; and the child grew up, and the Lord blessed him.

lesserot@Judges:14:1 @ And Samson went down to Timnathah, and saw a woman in Timnathah of the daughters of the Philistines.

lesserot@Judges:14:2 @ And he went up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnathah of the daughters of the Philistines; and now take her to me for wife.

lesserot@Judges:14:3 @ Then said unto him his father and his mother, Is there not among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, a woman, that thou art going to take a wife from the Philistines, the uncircumcised?

lesserot@Judges:14:4 @ But his father and his mother knew not that it was from the Lord, that he sought but an occasion against the Philistines; and at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.

lesserot@Judges:14:5 @ And Samson thus went down, with his father and his mother, to Timnathah; and when they were come as far as the vineyards of Timnathah, behold, a young lion came roaring toward him.

lesserot@Judges:14:6 @ And the Spirit of the Lord came suddenly over him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand; but he told not his father or his mother what he had done.

lesserot@Judges:14:8 @ And when he returned after a time to take her, he turned aside to see the carcass of the lion: and, behold, there was a swarm of bees in the carcass of the lion and honey likewise.

lesserot@Judges:14:9 @ And he took it out in his hands, and went on, eating as he was going, and came to his father and mother, and he gave unto them, and they did eat; but he told them not that out of the carcass of the lion he had taken the honey.

lesserot@Judges:14:10 @ And his father went down unto the woman; and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.

lesserot@Judges:14:12 @ And Samson said unto them, I will now propound unto you a riddle; if ye can in anywise tell it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then will I give you thirty shirts and thirty changes of garments;

lesserot@Judges:14:15 @ And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson’s wife, Persuade thy husband, that he may solve unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father’s house with fire: have ye invited us to impoverish us? is it not so?

lesserot@Judges:14:18 @ Then said unto him the men of the city on the seventh day before the sun was yet gone down, What is sweeter than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said unto them, If ye had not ploughed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.

lesserot@Judges:14:19 @ And the Spirit of the Lord came suddenly over him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew of them thirty men, and he took their apparel, and gave the changes of garments unto the expounders of the riddle; but his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father’s house.

lesserot@Judges:14:20 @ And Samson’s wife was given to his companion who had been given him as his associate.

lesserot@Judges:15:1 @ And it came to pass after some time, in the time of wheat–harvest, that Samson visited his wife with a kid; and he said, Let me go in to my wife into the chamber; but her father would not suffer him to go in.

lesserot@Judges:15:2 @ And her father said, I verily thought that thou didst utterly hate her; therefore I gave her to thy companion: is not her younger sister fairer than she? Let her be thine, I pray thee, instead of her.

lesserot@Judges:15:3 @ And Samson said to them, Now shall I be more blameless than the Philistines, though I do them evil.

lesserot@Judges:15:5 @ And he set the torches on fire, and let them go into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burnt up both shocks and standing corn, as also olive–yards.

lesserot@Judges:15:6 @ Then said the Philistines, Who hath done this! And they answered, Samson, the son–in–law of the Thimnite, because he hath taken his wife, and given her to his companion. And the Philistines went up, and burnt her and her father with fire.

lesserot@Judges:15:7 @ And Samson said unto them, Since ye will do the like of this, I will surely be avenged on you, and after that will I cease.

lesserot@Judges:15:9 @ And the Philistines went up, and encamped in Judah, and spread themselves in Lechi.

lesserot@Judges:15:11 @ Thereupon went three thousand men of Judah down to the cleft of the rock ‘Etam, and said to Samson, Knowest thou not that the Philistines rule over us? and what is this that thou hast done unto us? And he said unto them, As they did unto me, so have I done unto them.

lesserot@Judges:15:12 @ And they said unto him, To bind thee are we come down, to deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines. And Samson said unto them, Swear unto me, that ye will not assail me yourselves.

lesserot@Judges:15:13 @ And they said unto him, thus, No; for we will bind thee fast, and deliver thee into their hand; but we will in no–wise kill thee. And they bound him with two new cords, and brought him up from the rock.

lesserot@Judges:15:14 @ When he was come unto Lechi, the Philistines shouted against him; but the Spirit of the Lord came suddenly over him, and the cords that were upon his arms became as flax threads that are burnt with fire, and his bands melted from off his hands.

lesserot@Judges:15:17 @ And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jaw–bone out of his hand, and called that place Ramath–lechi.

lesserot@Judges:15:18 @ And he became very thirsty, and he called on the Lord, and said, Thou hast granted through the hand of thy servant this great deliverance; and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?

lesserot@Judges:15:19 @ But God clave a hollow place that was at Lechi, and there came forth water out of it; and he drank, and his spirit came again, and he revived; wherefore he called the name thereof ‘En–hakkore, which is in Lechi unto this day.

lesserot@Judges:16:2 @ And it was told to the Gazzites, saying, Samson is come hither: and they compassed him in, and lay in wait for him all the night in the gate of the city, and held themselves quiet all the night, saying, By the time it is light in the morning will we kill him.

lesserot@Judges:16:3 @ And Samson lay till midnight; but he arose at midnight, and took hold of the doors of the city–gate, and the two door–posts, and tore them away with the bolt, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of the mount that is before Hebron.

lesserot@Judges:16:4 @ And it came to pass after this, that he loved a woman in the valley of Shorek, whose name was Delilah.

lesserot@Judges:16:5 @ And the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and said unto her, Persuade him, and see wherein his great strength lieth, and by what means we may prevail over him, that we may bind him to subdue him: and we will give thee every one of us eleven hundred pieces of silver.

lesserot@Judges:16:7 @ And Samson said unto her, If they bind me with seven moist cords which have not yet been dried, then shall I become weak, and be like any other of mankind.

lesserot@Judges:16:8 @ And the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven moist cords which had not yet been dried, and she bound him with them.

lesserot@Judges:16:9 @ And she had men lying in wait, sitting near her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he tore the cords, as a thread of tow is torn when it toucheth the fire; and his strength was not perceived.

lesserot@Judges:16:12 @ And Delilah took new ropes, and bound him therewith, and said unto him, The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And the liers in wait were sitting in the chamber. But he tore them from off his arms like a thread.

lesserot@Judges:16:14 @ And she fastened it with the pin, and said unto him, The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he awakened out of his sleep, and tore away the pin of the loom, with the web.

lesserot@Judges:16:15 @ And she said unto him, How canst thou say, I love thee, when thy heart is not with me? these three times hast thou deceived me, and hast not told me wherein thy great strength lieth.

lesserot@Judges:16:16 @ And it came to pass, when she worried him daily with her words, and urged him, that his soul became impatient to die;

lesserot@Judges:16:17 @ And he told her all his heart, and said unto her, A razor hath not passed over my head; for a Nazarite of God have I been from my mother’s womb; if I were shaved, my strength would depart from me, and I should become weak, and be like all other men.

lesserot@Judges:16:18 @ And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once; for he hath told me all his heart. Then came the lords of the Philistines up unto her, and brought the money in their hand.

lesserot@Judges:16:20 @ And she said, The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and thought, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself free. But he knew not that the Lord had departed from him.

lesserot@Judges:16:21 @ And the Philistines seized him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gazzah, and bound him with fetters of copper; and he had to grind in the prison–house.

lesserot@Judges:16:22 @ But the hair of his head began to grow again after it was shaved off.

lesserot@Judges:16:23 @ And the lords of the Philistines gathered themselves together to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god, and to rejoice; and they said, Our god hath delivered into our hand Samson our enemy.

lesserot@Judges:16:24 @ And when the people saw him, they praised their god; for they said, Our god hath delivered into our hand our enemy, and the destroyer of our country, and him who hath slain so many of us.

lesserot@Judges:16:25 @ And it came to pass, when their heart was merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make sport for us. And they called for Samson out of the prison–house; and he made sport before them; and they placed him between the pillars.

lesserot@Judges:16:26 @ And Samson said unto the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me and let me feel the pillars whereupon the house is supported, that I may lean upon them.

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

lesserot@Judges:16:28 @ And Samson called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord Eternal, remember me, I pray thee, and do thou strengthen me only this once, O God, that I may be avenged for one of my two eyes on the Philistines.

lesserot@Judges:16:29 @ And Samson threw his arms around the two middle pillars upon which the house was supported, and he leaned on them, one with his right hand, and the other with his left.

lesserot@Judges:16:30 @ And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bent with might, and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead whom he slew at his death were more than those whom he had slain in his life.

lesserot@Judges:16:31 @ Then came down his brothers and all the house of his father, and they took him up, and carried him up, and buried him between Zor’ah and Eshtaol, in the burying–place of Manoach his father. And he had judged Israel twenty years.

lesserot@Judges:17:3 @ And he restored the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother; and his mother said, I had wholly dedicated the silver unto the Lord from my hand, for my son, to make a graven and molten image; and now I will give it back unto thee.

lesserot@Judges:17:4 @ Yet he gave the money back unto his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the silversmith, who made thereof a graven and molten image; and it was in the house of Micah.

lesserot@Judges:18:3 @ They were just by the house of Micah, when they recognized the voice of the young man the Levite; and they turned in thither, and said unto him, Who brought thee hither? and what doest thou in this place? and what hast thou here?

lesserot@Judges:18:4 @ And he said unto them, Thus and thus hath Micah done unto me; and he hired me, and I became his priest.

lesserot@Judges:18:7 @ And the five men departed, and came to Layish, and saw the people that were therein, dwelling in security, after the manner of the Zidonians, quiet and secure; and no one inflicted any wrong in the land, as hereditary ruler; and they were far from the Zidonians, and had no concern with any man.

lesserot@Judges:18:9 @ And they said, Arise, and let us go up against them; for we have seen the land, and, behold, it is very good: and you keep still! be not slothful, to go, to enter to take possession of the land.

lesserot@Judges:18:15 @ And they turned thitherward, and came to the house of the young man the Levite, unto the house of Micah, and asked him after his welfare.

lesserot@Judges:18:19 @ And they said unto him, Be still, lay thy hand upon thy mouth, and go with us, and become to us a father and a priest: is it better that thou be a priest unto the house of one man, or that thou be a priest unto a tribe and a family in Israel?

lesserot@Judges:18:22 @ When they were at a distance from the house of Micah, the men that were in the houses near to Micah’s house were called together, and they overtook the children of Daniel.

lesserot@Judges:20:6 @ And I took hold of my concubine and cut her in pieces, and sent her about throughout all the fields of the inheritance of Israel; for they had committed incest and scandal in Israel.

lesserot@Judges:20:7 @ Behold, ye are all here children of Israel: furnish for yourselves here advice and counsel.

lesserot@Judges:20:8 @ And all the people then arose as one man, saying, We will not go any of us to his tent, neither will we turn any of us into his house.

lesserot@Judges:20:10 @ And we will take ten men out of every hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred out of every thousand, and a thousand out of every ten thousand, to procure provisions for the people; that they may do, when they come to Gib’ah of Benjamin, in accordance with all the scandalous deed that they have wrought in Israel.

lesserot@Judges:20:11 @ So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, associated together as one man.

lesserot@Judges:20:12 @ And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the divisions of Benjamin, saying, What wickedness is this that hath been done among you?

lesserot@Judges:20:13 @ Now therefore deliver up the men, those worthless people, who are in Gib’ah, that we may put them to death, and remove evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not hearken to the voice of their brethren the children of Israel.

lesserot@Judges:20:14 @ And the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities unto Gib’ah, to go out to battle with the children of Israel.

lesserot@Judges:20:16 @ Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men lame in the right hand: every one of these could sling a stone at a hair, and would not miss.

lesserot@Judges:20:17 @ And the men of Israel, beside Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men that drew the sword: all these were men of war.

lesserot@Judges:20:18 @ And they arose, and went up to Beth–el, and asked counsel of God; and the children of Israel said, Who of us shall go up at first to the battle with the children of Benjamin? And the Lord said, Judah, at first.

lesserot@Judges:20:19 @ And the children of Israel rose up in the morning, and encamped against Gib’ah.

lesserot@Judges:20:20 @ And the men of Israel went out to battle with Benjamin; and the men of Israel put themselves in battle–array against them by Gib’ah.

lesserot@Judges:20:21 @ And the Children of Benjamin came forth out of Gib’ah, and struck down to the ground of the Israelites on that day twenty and two thousand men.

lesserot@Judges:20:22 @ And the people the men of Israel took courage, and set themselves again in battle–array in the place where they had arrayed themselves on the first day.

lesserot@Judges:20:23 @ And the children of Israel went up and wept before the Lord until the evening, and asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I again approach to battle with the children of Benjamin my brother? And the Lord said, Go up against him.

lesserot@Judges:20:24 @ And the children of Israel came near against the children of Benjamin on the second day.

lesserot@Judges:20:25 @ And Benjamin went forth against them out of Gib’ah on the second day, and struck down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men: all these were men that drew the sword.

lesserot@Judges:20:26 @ Now all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came unto Beth–el, and wept, and sat there before the Lord, and fasted on that day until the evening, and offered burnt–offerings and peace–offerings before the Lord.

lesserot@Judges:20:27 @ And the children of Israel inquired of the Lord, (for there was the ark of the covenant of God in those days,

lesserot@Judges:20:31 @ And the children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to smite some of the people, and kill, as at previous times, in the highways, of which one goeth up to Beth–el, and the other to Gib’ah in the field, about thirty men of Israel.

lesserot@Judges:20:32 @ And the children of Benjamin said, They are defeated before us, as at the first. But the children of Israel said, Let us flee, and draw them from the city unto the highways.

lesserot@Judges:20:33 @ And all the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and put themselves in array at Ba’al–thamar: and those that lay in wait of Israel rushed forth out of their place, out of the meadows of Gib’ah.

lesserot@Judges:20:34 @ And there came against Gib’ah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was severe; but they knew not that the evil was overtaking them.

lesserot@Judges:20:35 @ And the Lord smote Benjamin before Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of the Benjamites on that day twenty and five thousand and one hundred men: all these were those that drew the sword.

lesserot@Judges:20:36 @ And the children of Benjamin saw that they were defeated; for the men of Israel gave place to the Benjamites, because they trusted unto those that lay in wait whom they had set against Gib’ah.

lesserot@Judges:20:38 @ Now there was an understanding between the men of Israel and those that lay in wait, that they should make an abundance of columns of smoke rise up out of the city.

lesserot@Judges:20:42 @ Therefore they turned round before the men of Israel unto the way to the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and those who came out of the cities destroyed them in the midst of them.

lesserot@Judges:20:43 @ They enclosed the Benjamites round about, chased them, they overtook them in their places of rest, as far as opposite to Gib’ah toward the rising of the sun.

lesserot@Judges:20:48 @ And the men of Israel turned again upon the children of Benjamin, and smote them with the edge of the sword, as well the men of every city, as the beasts, and all that was found: also all the cities that they came upon did they set on fire.

lesserot@Judges:21:1 @ Now the men of Israel had sworn in Mizpah, saying, Not any of us shall give his daughter unto Benjamin for wife.

lesserot@Judges:21:3 @ And they said, Wherefore, O Lord, God of Israel, is this come to pass in Israel, that there should be lacking this day out of Israel one tribe?

lesserot@Judges:21:6 @ And the children of Israel felt regret for Benjamin their brother, and they said, One tribe hath this day been cut down from Israel.

lesserot@Judges:21:8 @ And they said, what one is there of the tribes of Israel that came not up unto the Lord to Mizpah? And, behold, there had not come to the camp a man from Yabesh–gil’ad to the assembly.

lesserot@Judges:21:11 @ And this is the thing that ye shall do, every male, and every woman that hath known by lying with him, shall ye devote.

lesserot@Judges:21:17 @ And they said, Their inheritance must be secured for Benjamin, that not a tribe may be blotted out from Israel.

lesserot@Judges:21:18 @ Nevertheless we ourselves are not able to give them wives of our daughters; for the children of Israel have sworn, saying, Cursed be he that giveth a wife to Benjamin.

lesserot@Judges:21:22 @ And it shall be, when their fathers or their brothers come to contend with us, that we will say unto them, Be favorable unto them for our sakes; because we took not for each man his wife in the war; because ye yourselves did not give them unto them, that ye should at this time be guilty.

lesserot@Judges:21:24 @ And the children of Israel departed thence at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from there every man to his inheritance.

lesserot@Ruth:4:5 @ Then said Bo’az, On the day that thou buyest the field out of the hand of Na’omi, thou buyest it also from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.

lesserot@Ruth:4:7 @ Now this was formerly the custom in Israel at a redeeming and at an exchanging, to confirm any thing, that a man pulled off his shoe, and gave it to the other; and this was the manner of testimony in Israel.

lesserot@Ruth:4:8 @ Thereupon said the kinsman unto Bo’az, Buy it for thee. And he pulled off his shoe.

lesserot@Ruth:4:9 @ And Bo’az said unto the elders, and unto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that belonged to Elimelech, and all that belonged to Kilyon and Machlon, out of the hand of Na’omi.

lesserot@Ruth:4:10 @ And also Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Machlon, have I obtained for myself as my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day.

lesserot@Ruth:4:11 @ And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders, said, witnesses. The Lord grant that the woman that is coming into thy house be like Rachel and like Leah, who did both build up the house of Israel: and acquire thou wealth in Ephrathah, and let thy name become famous in Beth–lechem;

lesserot@Ruth:4:12 @ And may thy house be like the house of Perez, whom Thamar bore unto Judah, through the seed which the Lord will give thee of this young woman.

lesserot@Ruth:4:13 @ And Bo’az took Ruth, and she became his wife, and he went in unto her: and the Lord gave her conception, and she bore a son.

lesserot@Ruth:4:14 @ And the women said unto Na’omi, Blessed be the Lord, who hath not allowed to be wanting unto thee a kinsman this day: and may his name become famous in Israel.

lesserot@Ruth:4:15 @ And may he be unto thee one who refresheth thy soul, and who nourisheth thy old age; for thy daughter–in–law, who loveth thee, hath born him, she who is better to thee than seven sons.

lesserot@Ruth:4:17 @ And the neighboring women gave him a name, saying, There hath been a son born unto Na’omi: and they called his name ‘Obed, who is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:3 @ And this man went up out of his city from year to year to prostrate himself and to sacrifice unto the Lord of hosts in Shiloh. And at that place were the two sons of ‘Eli, Chophni and Phinehas, priests of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:4 @ And when the day was come that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions;

lesserot@1Samuel:1:11 @ And she vowed a vow, and said, O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thy handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thy handmaid, but wilt give unto thy handmaid a man–child: then will I give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:17 @ Then ‘Eli answered and said, Go in peace; and may the God of Israel grant thy petition which thou hast asked of him.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:19 @ And they rose up early in the morning, and prostrated themselves before the Lord, and returned, and came to their house at Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the Lord remembered her.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:20 @ And it came to pass, after the lapse of some time, that Hannah conceived, and bore a son; and she called his name Samuel, saying, Because from the Lord have I asked him.

lesserot@1Samuel:1:23 @ And Elkanah her husband said unto her, Do what seemeth good in thy eyes; tarry until thou hast weaned him; only may the Lord fulfill his word. So the woman remained behind, and gave her son suck until she weaned him.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:8 @ He raiseth up out of the dust the poor, from the dunghill he lifteth up the needy, to set them among nobles, and he assigneth them the throne of glory; for the Lord’s are the pillars of the earth, on which he hath set the world.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:14 @ And he struck it into the pan, or the kettle, or the caldron, or the pot; all that the fork brought up the priest took away with it. So did they unto all the Israelites that came thither, to Shiloh.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:17 @ And the sin of the young men was very great before the Lord; for the men despised the offering of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:18 @ But Samuel was ministering before the Lord, being a lad, girded with a linen ephod.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:19 @ Moreover his mother used to make him a little overcoat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:20 @ And ‘Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, May the Lord give thee seed from this woman instead of the loan who is lent to the Lord. And they went back unto his place.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:21 @ And truly the Lord visited Hannah, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters. And the lad Samuel grew up before the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:22 @ Now ‘Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons were in the habit of doing unto all Israel; and how they would lie with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:24 @ No, my sons; for the report that I hear is not good, which the Lord’s people spread abroad.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:28 @ And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to me as a priest, to offer upon my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the fire–offerings of the children of Israel?

lesserot@1Samuel:2:29 @ Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at my meat–offering, which I have commanded in habitation? and honoredst thou thy sons above me, to fatten yourselves with the first of every offering of Israel my people?

lesserot@1Samuel:2:30 @ Therefore saith the Lord the God of Israel, I had indeed said, Thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever; but now, saith the Lord, Be it far from me; for those that honor me will I honor, and those that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.

lesserot@1Samuel:2:32 @ And thou shalt behold a rival in my habitation, in all that by which he will do good for Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thy house in all times.

lesserot@1Samuel:3:1 @ And the lad Samuel was ministering unto the Lord before ‘Eli. And the word of the Lord was scarce in those days: prophecy was not extended.

lesserot@1Samuel:3:2 @ And it came to pass one day, when ‘Eli was lying down in his place, and his eyes had begun to grow dim, he could not see;

lesserot@1Samuel:3:9 @ And ‘Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down; and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth. And Samuel went and lay down in his place.

lesserot@1Samuel:3:13 @ And I tell him that I will judge his house for ever; for the iniquity that he knew that his sons were drawing a curse on themselves, and he restrained them not.

lesserot@1Samuel:3:15 @ And Samuel lay until the morning, when he opened the doors of the house of the Lord; and Samuel feared to tell the vision unto ‘Eli.

lesserot@1Samuel:3:17 @ And he said, What is the word which he hath spoken unto thee? do not, I pray thee, conceal it from me: may God do to thee thus, and continue to do so, if thou conceal any thing from me of all the word that he hath spoken unto thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:3:19 @ And Samuel grew up, and the Lord was with him, and he did not let fall any one of all his words to the ground.

lesserot@1Samuel:3:20 @ And thus knew all Israel from Dan even to Beer–sheba’ that Samuel was accredited as a prophet of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:4:1 @ And the word of Samuel became known to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Eben–ha’ezer; and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.

lesserot@1Samuel:4:2 @ And the Philistines put themselves in battle–array against Israel; and the battle became general, and Israel was smitten before the Philistines: and they slew on the battle–ground, in the field, about four thousand men.

lesserot@1Samuel:4:7 @ And the Philistines were afraid; for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for the like of this hath not been, yesterday or the day before.

lesserot@1Samuel:4:9 @ Be strong, and act like men, O Philistines, so that ye become not servants unto the Hebrews, as they have been servants to you: therefore act like men, and fight.

lesserot@1Samuel:4:10 @ And the Philistines fought, and the Israelites were smitten, and they fled every man unto his tent: and the defeat was very great; and there fell of Israel thirty thousand men on foot.

lesserot@1Samuel:4:18 @ And it came to pass, when he mentioned the ark of God, that he fell from off the chair backward by the side of the gate, and his neck was broken, and he died; for the man was old, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.

lesserot@1Samuel:5:11 @ So they sent and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, that it may return to its own place, so that it may not slay us, and our people; for there was a confusion of death throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:1 @ And the ark of the Lord was in the fields of the Philistines seven months.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:2 @ And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, What shall we do with the ark of the Lord? let us know wherewith we shall send off it to its place.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:3 @ And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of Israel, send it not away empty; but ye must to a certainty return him a trespass–offering: then will ye be healed, and it will be known to you why his hand is not removed from you.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:4 @ And they said, What shall be the trespass–offering that we shall return to him? And they answered, According to the number of the lords of the Philistines, five golden hemorrhoids, and five golden mice; for one plague affected them all, and your lords.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:5 @ Therefore make images of your hemorrhoids, and images of your mice that devastate the land; and give glory unto the God of Israel: perhaps he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:6 @ And why will ye harden your heart, just as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their heart? Did not they, when he had wrought wonderful deeds among them, dismiss them, and they departed?

lesserot@1Samuel:6:9 @ And then see, if it go up by the way to its own boundary, to Beth–shemesh, then hath he done us this great evil; but if not, then shall we know that not his hand hath smitten us; it is a chance which hath happened to us.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:12 @ And the cows went straight forward on the way on the road to Beth–shemesh: on one highway they did go along, lowing as they went, and turned not aside to the right or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them as far as the border of Beth–shemesh.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:16 @ And when the five lords of the Philistines had seen it, they returned to ‘Ekron on the same day.

lesserot@1Samuel:6:17 @ And these are the golden hemorrhoids which the Philistines returned as a trespass–offering unto the Lord: For Ashdod one, for Gazzah one, for Ashkelon one, for Gath one, for ‘Ekron one.

lesserot@1Samuel:7:9 @ And Samuel took one sucking lamb, and offered it for an entire burnt–offering unto the Lord: and Samuel cried unto the Lord in behalf of Israel; and the Lord answered him.

lesserot@1Samuel:7:10 @ And as Samuel was offering up the burnt–offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel; but the Lord thundered with a loud noise on that day over the Philistines, and brought them into confusion, and they were smitten before Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:7:11 @ And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and smote them, as far as below Beth–car.

lesserot@1Samuel:7:12 @ And Samuel took one stone, and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Eben–ha’ezer, saying, As far as this hath the Lord helped us.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:2 @ When thou goest this day away from me, thou wilt find two men who are now by Rachel’s sepulchre, on the boundary of Benjamin at Zelzach; and they will say unto thee, The asses which thou wentest to seek are found: and, lo, thy father hath given up the matter of the asses, and is anxious for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?

lesserot@1Samuel:10:5 @ After that shalt thou come to the hill of God, where the outposts of the Philistines are; and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thither to the city, that thou wilt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high–place, having before them a psaltery, and a tambourine, and a pipe, and a harp; and they will be prophesying;

lesserot@1Samuel:10:7 @ And it shall be, that, when these signs are come unto thee, then do thou what thy hand may be able to effect; for God is with thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:9 @ And it happened, that, as he turned his back to go away from Samuel, God changed his heart into another; and all these signs came to pass on that same day.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:11 @ And it came to pass, when all that knew him before saw, that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then said the people one to another, What is this that hath happened to the son of Kish? is Saul also among the prophets?

lesserot@1Samuel:10:12 @ And one of that place answered and said, And who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?

lesserot@1Samuel:10:14 @ And Saul’s uncle said unto him and to his servant, Whither were ye gone? And he said, To seek the asses; and when we saw that they were nowhere, we went to Samuel.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:16 @ And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses had been found. But of the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel had spoken, he told him not.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:18 @ And he said unto the children of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, I brought up Israel from Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you;

lesserot@1Samuel:10:19 @ And ye for your part have this day rejected your God, he who hath saved you out of all your misfortunes and your tribulations; and ye have said unto him, Nevertheless, thou must set a king over us: and now present yourselves before the Lord according to your tribes, and according to your thousands.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:20 @ And Samuel caused all the tribes of Israel to come near; and the tribe of Benjamin was seized.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:21 @ And he caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near according to its families, and the family of Matri was seized, and then was seized Saul the son of Kish: and they sought him, but he could not be found.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:22 @ And they inquired again of the Lord, Is the man yet come hither? And the Lord said, Behold, he hath hidden himself among the vessels.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:23 @ And they ran and fetched him thence, and he placed himself erect in the midst of the people, and he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:24 @ And Samuel said to all the people, Have ye seen him whom the Lord hath made choice of, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, Long live the king.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:25 @ Then did Samuel speak to the people the rights of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it down before the Lord. And Samuel sent away all the people, every man to his house.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:26 @ And Saul also went to his home to Gib’ah; and there went with him a large crowd, whose heart God had touched.

lesserot@1Samuel:10:27 @ But the worthless men said, In what can this help us? And they despised him, and brought him no present. But he acted as though he were deaf.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:2 @ And Nachash the ‘Ammonite said unto them, On this condition will I make it with you, that ye all have put out the right eye, that I may lay it as a reproach upon all Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:3 @ And the elders of Yabesh said unto him, Grant us seven days’ respite, that we may send messengers throughout all the boundary of Israel; and then, if there be none to save us, will we come out to thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:6 @ And the spirit of God came suddenly over Saul when he heard these words, and his anger was kindled greatly,

lesserot@1Samuel:11:7 @ And he took a yoke of oxen, and cut them in pieces, and sent them about throughout all the boundary of Israel by the hand of the messengers, saying, Whosoever goeth not forth after Saul and after Samuel, shall have his herds thus treated. And the dread of the Lord fell on the people, and they went out as one man.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:8 @ And he numbered them in Bezek; and the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:12 @ And the people said unto Samuel, Who is there that saith, Shall Saul reign over us? give up the men, and we will put them to death.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:13 @ And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death on this day; for today the Lord hath wrought deliverance in Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:11:15 @ And all the people went to Gilgal; and they appointed there Saul as king before the Lord in Gilgal; and they sacrificed there sacrifices of peace–offerings before the Lord; and Saul with all the men of Israel rejoiced there very greatly.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:1 @ And Samuel said unto all Israel, Behold, I have hearkened unto your voice in all that ye said unto me, and I have set a king over you.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:2 @ And now, behold, the king is walking before you; and I am old and gray–headed; and my sons, behold, they are with you; and I have walked before you from my youth even until this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:3 @ Behold, here am I; testify against me in the presence of the Lord, and in the presence of his anointed: Whose ox have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed? or from whose hand have I received any ransom so that I withdrew my eyes from him? and I will restore it you.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:5 @ And he said unto them, The Lord is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that ye have not found in my hand the least: and they answered, He is witness.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:6 @ And Samuel said unto the people, It is the Lord who did Moses and Aaron, and who brought your fathers up out of the land of Egypt.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:8 @ When Jacob was come into Egypt, then did your fathers cry unto the Lord, and the Lord sent Moses and Aaron, and they brought forth your fathers out of Egypt, and caused them to dwell in this place.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:9 @ And when they forgot the Lord their God, he sold them into the hand of Sissera, the chief of the host of Chazor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab, and they made war against them.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:12 @ But when ye saw that Nachash the king of the children of ‘Ammon came against you, ye said unto me, No; but a king shall reign over us: when the Lord your God is your king.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:13 @ And now here is the king whom ye have chosen, whom ye have asked for! and, behold, the Lord hath set over you a king.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:14 @ If ye will fear the Lord, and serve him, and obey his voice, and will not rebel against the will of the Lord: then shall both ye and also the king that reigneth over you continue following the Lord your God.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:16 @ And now stand up and see this great thing, which the Lord is about doing before your eyes.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:17 @ Is there not wheat–harvest today? I will call unto the Lord, and he will send thunders and rain; and ye will perceive and see that your wickedness is great, which ye have done, in the eyes of the Lord, to ask for yourselves a king.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:19 @ And all the people said unto Samuel, Pray in behalf of thy servants unto the Lord thy God, that we may not die; for we have added unto all our sins yet this evil, to ask for ourselves a king.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:20 @ And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not; ye have indeed done all this evil: yet turn not aside from following the Lord, and serve ye the Lord with all your heart;

lesserot@1Samuel:12:22 @ For the Lord will not forsake his people for the sake of his great name; because it hath pleased the Lord to make you a people unto himself.

lesserot@1Samuel:12:25 @ But if ye will in any wise do wickedly, both ye yourselves as also your king shall perish.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:1 @ When Saul had reigned one year,––and two years he reigned over Israel,––

lesserot@1Samuel:13:2 @ Saul chose for himself three thousand men out of Israel; and there were with Saul two thousand in Michmash and on the mountain of Beth–el, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gib’ah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent away every man to his tents.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:3 @ And Jonathan smote the outpost of the Philistines that was at Geba’, and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the cornet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear it.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:4 @ And all Israel heard it, saying, Saul hath smitten the outpost of the Philistines, and the Israelites also have put themselves in ill–favor with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:5 @ And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea–shore in multitude; and they came up, and encamped in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:6 @ And when the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, then did the people hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in strongholds, and in pits.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:11 @ And Samuel said, What hast thou done: And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattering themselves from me, whereas thou camest not at the appointed day, and the Philistines are gathering themselves together at Michmash;

lesserot@1Samuel:13:12 @ And I said, The Philistines will now come down unto me to Gilgal, and I have not yet made supplication unto the Lord: wherefore I forced myself, and offered the burnt–offering.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:13 @ And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the Lord thy God, which he had commanded thee; for now would the Lord have established thy government over Israel for ever.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:14 @ But now thy government shall not endure: the Lord hath sought out for himself a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath ordained him to be chief over his people; because thou hast not kept what the Lord had commanded thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:16 @ And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were to be found with them, were lying in Geba’ of Benjamin; but the Philistines were encamped in Michmash.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:17 @ And the troop of freebooters went out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned into the way to ‘Ophrah, unto the land of Shu’al;

lesserot@1Samuel:13:19 @ Now there was no smith to be found throughout all the land of Israel; for the Philistines said, So that the Hebrews shall not make themselves swords or spears.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:20 @ But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his plough–share, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:22 @ So it came to pass on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan; but they were found with Saul and with Jonathan his son.

lesserot@1Samuel:13:23 @ And the outpost of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:1 @ Now it happened one day, that Jonathan the son of Saul said unto the young man that bore his armor, Come, and let us go over to the Philistines’ outpost, that is on the other side yonder. But unto his father he told nothing.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:2 @ And Saul tarried in the lower part of Gib’ah under the pomegranate tree which is by Migron: and the people that were with him were about six hundred men.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:4 @ And between the passes, by which Jonathan sought to go over unto the outpost of the Philistines, there was a sharp point of rock on the one side, and a sharp point of rock on the other side: and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:6 @ And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armor, Come, and let us go over unto the outpost of these uncircumcised: it may be that the Lord will work for us; for there is no restraint to the Lord to save by means of many or by means of few.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:7 @ And his armor–bearer said unto him, Do all that is in thy heart: turn thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:10 @ But if they say thus, Come up unto us: then will we go up; for the Lord hath delivered them into our hand; and this shall be unto us the sign.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:11 @ And when both of them showed themselves unto the outpost of the Philistines, the Philistines said, Behold, Hebrews are coming forth out of the holes wherein they have hidden themselves.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:12 @ And the men of the outpost addressed Jonathan and his armor–bearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will let you know something. Then said Jonathan unto his armor–bearer, Come up after me; for the Lord hath given them up into the hand of Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:13 @ And Jonathan then ascended upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armor–bearer after him: and they fell before Jonathan, and his armor–bearer was killing after him.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:14 @ And that first defeat, which Jonathan and his armor–bearer caused, was about twenty men, within about the half of a field, which a yoke of oxen might plough.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:17 @ Then said Saul unto the people that were with him, Muster now, and see who is gone away from us. And they mustered, and, behold, there was neither Jonathan nor his armor–bearer.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:18 @ And Saul said unto Achiyah, Bring hither the ark of God; for the ark of God was on that day with the children of Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:19 @ And it happened, while Saul was speaking unto the priest, that the confusion which was in the camp of the Philistines went on and increased more and more: And Saul said unto the priest, Withdraw thy hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:20 @ And Saul and all the people that were with him were called together, and they came to the battle; and, behold, the sword of every man was against his fellow, the disorder being very great.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:21 @ And the Hebrews that were with the Philistines as before that time, those namely who had gone up with them, were in the camp round about; but these also resolved to be with the Israelites that were with Saul and Jonathan.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:22 @ And all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves on the mountain of Ephraim, heard that the Philistines had fled; and they also followed hard after them in the battle.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:23 @ So the Lord saved Israel that day: and the battle passed over unto Beth–aven.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:24 @ And the men of Israel were hard urged that day; and Saul adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that will eat food until the evening, until I have been avenged on my enemies. And the whole people tasted thus no food.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:26 @ And when the people were come into the forest, behold, there was a stream of honey; but no one put his hand to his mouth; for the people feared the oath.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:27 @ But Jonathan had not heard his father charging the people with the oath; he therefore put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and dipped it in a honey–comb, and carried his hand again to his mouth; and his eyes became clear.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:28 @ Then commenced one of the people, and said, Thy father strictly charged the people with an oath, saying, Cursed be the man that will eat food this day; though the people were faint.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:29 @ Then said Jonathan, My father hath troubled the land: see, I pray you, how my eyes become clear, because I have tasted a little of this honey.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:30 @ How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely this day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for would there not have been now a greater defeat among the Philistines?

lesserot@1Samuel:14:31 @ And they smote on that day among the Philistines from Michmash to Ayalon; and the people were very faint.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:33 @ And they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people are sinning against the Lord, in eating upon the blood. And he said, Ye have acted treacherously: roll unto me this day a great stone.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:34 @ And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them, Bring near unto me every man his ox, and every man his lamb, and slaughter here, and eat; and sin not against the Lord in eating by the blood. And all the people brought near every man his ox by his hand that night, and slaughtered there.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:36 @ And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and spoil them until the morning–light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever seemeth good in thy eyes. Then said the priest, Let us draw near hither unto God.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:37 @ And Saul asked counsel of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hand of Israel? But he answered him not on that day.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:38 @ And Saul said, Draw ye near hither all the chief of the people: and know and see through what this sin hath happened this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:39 @ For, as the Lord liveth, who saveth Israel, that if it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. But no one answered him among all the people.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:40 @ Then said he unto all Israel, Ye shall be on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said unto Saul, Do what seemeth good in thy eyes.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:41 @ And Saul said unto the Lord, God of Israel, O, show forth the perfect truth. And Jonathan and Saul were seized; but the people came forth.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:45 @ And the people said unto Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? This shall not be: as the Lord liveth, there shall not fall one hair of his head to the ground; for with God hath he wrought this day. So the people rescued Jonathan, and he died not.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:46 @ Then went Saul up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:47 @ So Saul strengthened himself in the government over Israel; and he fought on every side against all his enemies, against Moab, and against the children of ‘Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines: and whithersoever he turned himself, he caused terror.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:48 @ And he gathered an army, and he smote the ‘Amalekites, and delivered Israel out of the hands of those that spoiled them.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:49 @ Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Yishvi, and Malkishua’: and the names of his two daughters––the name of the first–born was Merab, and the name of the younger Michal.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:50 @ And the name of Saul’s wife was Achino’am, the daughter of Achima’az: and the name of the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, Saul’s uncle.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:51 @ And Kish the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner, were each the son of Abiel.

lesserot@1Samuel:14:52 @ And the war against the Philistines was violent all the days of Saul: and when Saul saw any strong man, or any valiant man, he took him unto himself.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:1 @ And Samuel said unto Saul, Me did the Lord send to anoint thee as king over his people, over Israel; and now hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:2 @ Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, I remember what Amalek did to Israel, how he lay in wait for him on the way, when he came up from Egypt.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:6 @ And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from the midst of the ‘Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them; whereas ye acted kindly with all the children of Israel, at their coming up out of Egypt. And the Kenites departed from the midst of the ‘Amalekites.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:7 @ And Saul smote the ‘Amalekites from Chavilah until thou comest to Shur, that is before Egypt.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:11 @ I repent that I have set up Saul as king; for he hath turned back from following me, and my word hath he not performed: and it displeased Samuel, and he cried unto the Lord all the night.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:14 @ And Samuel said, What is then this bleating of the flocks in my ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?

lesserot@1Samuel:15:16 @ And Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the Lord said to me this night: and he said unto him, Speak.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:17 @ And Samuel said, Is it not that, however little thou wast in thy own eyes, thou art the head of the tribes of Israel? and the Lord anointed thee as king over Israel?

lesserot@1Samuel:15:22 @ And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as much delight in burnt–offerings and in sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to attend more than the fat of the rams.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:23 @ For the sin of witchcraft is rebellion, and idolatry and image–worship, stubbornness; inasmuch as thou hast despised the word of the Lord, he hath also despised thee that thou shalt not be king.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:26 @ And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee; for thou didst despise the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath despised thee, that thou shalt not be king over Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:27 @ And Samuel turned about to go: and he laid hold on the corner of his mantle, and it was rent.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:28 @ And Samuel said unto him, The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from off thee this day, and hath given it to thy associate, who is better than thou.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:29 @ And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent; for he is not a man, that he should repent.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:30 @ And he said, I have sinned; honor me now, I pray thee, in the presence of the elders of my people, and in the presence of Israel, and return with me, that I may prostrate myself unto the Lord thy God.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:32 @ And Samuel said, Bring ye hither unto me Agag the king of the ‘Amalekites: and Agag came unto him cheerfully; and Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:34 @ Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house at Gib’ah of Saul.

lesserot@1Samuel:15:35 @ And Samuel did not see Saul any more until the day of his death; because Samuel mourned for Saul; and the Lord repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:1 @ And the Lord said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him so as not to reign over Israel? fill thy horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Beth–lechemite; for I have selected among his sons unto myself a king.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:5 @ And he said, Peace: to sacrifice unto the Lord am I come; sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and invited them to the sacrifice.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:6 @ And it came to pass, when they came, that he saw Eliab, and said, Surely the Lord’s anointed is before him.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:7 @ But the Lord said unto Samuel, Regard not his appearance, nor the height of his stature; because I have rejected him; for not what man looketh on; ––for man looketh on the eyes, but the Lord looketh on the heart.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:8 @ Then Jesse called Abinadab, and caused him to pass before Samuel. And he said, This one also hath the Lord not chosen.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:9 @ Then Jesse caused Shammah to pass by. And he said, This one also hath the Lord not chosen.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:10 @ And Jesse caused seven of his sons to pass before Samuel: and Samuel said unto Jesse, The Lord hath not made choice of these.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:11 @ And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are there not more young men? And he said, There is yet left behind the youngest, and, behold, he is feeding the flocks. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send and fetch him; for we will not sit down till he have come hither.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:12 @ And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, having withal handsome eyes, and being of a goodly appearance. And the Lord said, Arise, anoint him; for this is he.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:13 @ Then took Samuel the horn of oil, and anointed him from among his brothers; and the Spirit of the Lord came suddenly upon David from that day and forward. And Samuel then rose up, and went to Ramah.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:16 @ Let our Lord but say, and thy servants, now before thee, will seek out a man, who is skilful as a player on the harp; and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, that thou mayest be well.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:17 @ And Saul said unto his servants, Select for me, I pray you, a man that can play well, and bring him to me.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:18 @ Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Beth–lechemite, who is skilful as a player, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and intelligent in speech, and a person of a good form, and the Lord is with him.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:19 @ Thereupon Saul sent messengers unto Jesse, and said, Send me David thy son, who is with the flocks.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:20 @ And Jesse took an ass laden with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid, and sent them through David his son unto Saul.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:21 @ And David came to Saul, and stood before him; and he loved him greatly, and he became his armor–bearer.

lesserot@1Samuel:16:23 @ And it came to pass, when the spirit of God was upon Saul, that David took the harp, and played with his hand; so Saul became relieved, and he felt well, and the evil spirit departed from him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:1 @ And the Philistines gathered together their camps to battle, and they gathered themselves together at Sochoh, which belongeth to Judah; and they encamped between Sochoh and ‘Azekah, at Ephess–dammim.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:2 @ And Saul and the men of Israel gathered themselves together, and encamped in the valley of Elah, and put themselves in battle–array opposite to the Philistines.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:3 @ And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and the Israelites stood on a mountain on the other side: and the valley was between them.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:4 @ And there went out the champion out of the camp of the Philistines, Goliath of Gath was his name, whose height was six cubits and a span.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:5 @ And he had a helmet of copper upon his head, and he was clothed with a scaly coat of mail; and the weight of the coat of mail was five thousand shekels of copper.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:6 @ And he had greaves of copper upon his legs, and a javelin of copper between his shoulders.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:7 @ And the staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and the blade of his spear six hundred shekels of iron: and the shield–bearer was walking before him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:8 @ And he stood and calleth unto the arrays of Israel, and said unto them, Why will ye come out to put yourselves in battle–array? Behold: I am the Philistine, and ye are servants to Saul! select for yourselves one man, and let him come down to me;

lesserot@1Samuel:17:10 @ And the Philistine said, I have defied the arrays of Israel this day; give me a man, and let us fight together.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:11 @ When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were disheartened, and became greatly afraid.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:13 @ And the three eldest sons of Jesse were gone following Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that were gone to the battle were Eliab the first–born, and the next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:15 @ But David kept going and returning from Saul to feed his father’s flocks at Beth–lechem.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:16 @ And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:17 @ And Jesse said unto David his son, Take, I pray thee, for thy brothers an ephah of this parched corn, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brothers;

lesserot@1Samuel:17:19 @ Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:21 @ And the Israelites and the Philistines put themselves in battle–array, army against army.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:22 @ And David left the articles which he had on him in the hand of the keeper of the baggage, and ran into the array, and came and asked of his brothers after their welfare.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:23 @ And as he was speaking with them, behold, there came up the champion, Goliath the Philistine, by name, of Gath, out of the battle–arrays of the Philistines, and spoke in accordance with these same words: and David heard it.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:24 @ And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from before him, and were greatly afraid.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:25 @ And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is coming forth? for to defy Israel is he coming forth; and it shall be, that the man who killeth him,––him will the king enrich with great riches, and his daughter will he give him, and his father’s house will he make free in Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:26 @ And David said to the men that stood by him, thus, What shall be done to the man that may smite yon Philistine, and take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the arrays of the living God?

lesserot@1Samuel:17:27 @ And the people spoke to him after this manner, saying, So shall it be done to the man that may smite him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:28 @ And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he was speaking unto the men; and Eliab’s anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why didst thou come down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness?

lesserot@1Samuel:17:29 @ And David said, What have I now done? It is nothing but a word.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:32 @ And David said to Saul, Let no man’s heart fail because of him: thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:33 @ And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go unto this Philistine to fight with him; for thou art but a lad, and he a man of war from his youth.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:34 @ And David said unto Saul, Thy servant was feeding his father’s flocks, and there came a lion, and a bear, and bore off a lamb out of the drove;

lesserot@1Samuel:17:35 @ And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he rose up against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:36 @ Both the lion and the bear did thy servant smite: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall become as one of them; because he hath defied the arrays of the living God.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:37 @ Moreover David said, The Lord who hath delivered me out of the power of the lion, and out of the power of the bear, will also surely deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and may the Lord be with thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:39 @ And David girded his sword over his garments, and he essayed to go; for he had not tried it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot walk in these; for I have never tried it before. And David put them off from him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:40 @ And he took his staff in his hand, and chose himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd’s pouch which be had, even in a scrip, with his sling in his hand; and he approached to the Philistine.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:41 @ And the Philistine went and drew nearer and nearer unto David; and the man that bore the shield went before him.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:42 @ And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a lad, and ruddy, with a fair appearance.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:43 @ And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest unto me with sticks? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:44 @ And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the heavens, and to the beasts of the field.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:45 @ Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest unto me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a javelin; but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the arrays of Israel, that thou hast defied.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:46 @ This day will the Lord deliver thee into my hand; and I will smite thee, and remove thy head from thee; and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; and all the earth shall know that there is a God for Israel.

lesserot@1Samuel:17:47 @ And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not through sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give you up into our hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:8 @ And Saul was very wroth, and this saying was displeasing in his eyes; and he said, They have given unto David ten thousands, and to me they have given the thousands: and all that he lacketh now yet is only the kingdom.

lesserot@1Samuel:18:30 @ And the princes of the Philistines went forth; and it came to pass, whenever they went forth, that David was more successful than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was highly prized.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:3 @ And I will go out and stand by the side of my father in the field where thou art, and I myself will speak of thee to my father; and I will see what it is, and I will tell thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:4 @ And Jonathan spoke favorably of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; since he hath not sinned against thee, and because his deeds are very good for thee;

lesserot@1Samuel:19:5 @ And he did put his life in his hand, and he slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great salvation for all Israel; thou sawest it, and wast rejoiced: wherefore then wilt thou commit sin on innocent blood, by slaying David without a cause?

lesserot@1Samuel:19:21 @ And when it was told to Saul, he sent other messengers, and these prophesied likewise. And Saul sent again messengers the third time, and these also prophesied.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:22 @ Then went he himself also to Ramah, and came as far as the great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And some one said, Behold, they are at Nayoth near Ramah.

lesserot@1Samuel:19:24 @ And he also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied himself before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore people are in the habit of saying, Is Saul too among the prophets?

lesserot@1Samuel:20:1 @ And David fled from Nayoth near Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? what is my iniquity? and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeketh my life?

lesserot@1Samuel:20:2 @ And he said unto him, God forbid; thou shalt not die: behold, my father is not wont to do a great thing or a small thing, which he doth not inform me of; and why should my father conceal this thing from me? it is not so.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:3 @ But David swore again, and said, Thy father well knoweth that I have found grace in thy eyes; wherefore he said, Jonathan must not know this, lest he be grieved: nevertheless, as truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there was but one step between me and death.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:5 @ And David said unto Jonathan, Behold, tomorrow is the new–moon, and I should as usual sit with the king to eat; but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field until the third evening.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:6 @ If thy father at all miss me, then do thou say, David asked earnestly leave of me that he might run to Beth–lechem his city; for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:7 @ If he should say thus, It is well: then shall thy servant have peace; but if it be at all displeasing to him, then know that the evil is determined on by him.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:12 @ And Jonathan said unto David, May the God of Israel if, when I have sounded my father about this time tomorrow, or of the third day, and, behold, if he be good toward David, I do not then send unto thee, and inform thee of it.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:17 @ And Jonathan caused David to swear again, by his love for him; for he loved him as he loved his own soul.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:18 @ Then Jonathan said to David, Tomorrow is the new–moon: and thou wilt be missed, because thy seat will be left empty.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:21 @ And, behold, I will send the lad, saying, Go, find the arrows; if I should now say unto the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee: then take him and come; for there is peace to thee, and it is nothing; as the Lord liveth.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:23 @ And touching the matter of which we have spoken, thou and I, behold, the Lord is between me and thee for ever.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:25 @ And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, upon the seat by the wall: and when Jonathan arose, Abner seated himself by the side of Saul, and David’s place was left empty.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:26 @ Nevertheless Saul spoke not the least on that day; for he thought, Something hath befallen him, he is not clean; because he hath not yet purified himself.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:27 @ And it came to pass on the morrow, the second day of the new–moon, that David’s place was left empty; and Saul said unto Jonathan his son, Wherefore is the son of Jesse not come, both yesterday and today, to the repast?

lesserot@1Samuel:20:29 @ And he said, Let me go, I pray thee; for we have a family–sacrifice in the city, and my brother himself hath commanded it to me; and now, if I have found favor in thy eyes, let me get away, I pray thee, that I may see my brothers: therefore is he not come unto the king’s table.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:32 @ And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said unto him, Wherefore shall he be put to death? what hath he done?

lesserot@1Samuel:20:33 @ And Saul cast his spear at him to smite him: and Jonathan understood that it was determined on by his father to put David to death.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:34 @ And Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and did eat no food on the second day of the new–moon; for he was grieved for David; because his father had made him feel ashamed.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:36 @ And he said unto his lad, Run, do find out the arrows which I shoot: and the lad ran, and he shot the arrow so as to pass beyond him.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:37 @ And when the lad was come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan called after the lad, and said, Behold, the arrow is beyond thee!

lesserot@1Samuel:20:38 @ And Jonathan called after the lad, Make haste, speed, stay not: and Jonathan’s lad gathered up the arrows, and came to his master.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:40 @ And Jonathan gave his weapons unto the lad who was with him, and said unto him, Go, carry them to the city.

lesserot@1Samuel:20:41 @ And as soon as the lad was gone, David arose from the south side, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times: and they kissed one another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded.

lesserot@1Samuel:22:1 @ And David departed thence, and escaped to the cave ‘Adullam: and when his brothers and all his father’s house heard it, they went down to him thither.

lesserot@1Samuel:22:2 @ And there gathered themselves unto him every one that was in distress, and every one that had a creditor, and every one that had an embittered spirit; and he became a captain over them: and there were with him about four hundred men.

lesserot@1Samuel:22:6 @ And Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him,

lesserot@1Samuel:22:7 @ Then said Saul unto his servants that stood about him, Hear, I pray you, men of Benjamin! will the son of Jesse give, indeed, to every one of you fields and vineyards? will he appoint you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds?

lesserot@1Samuel:22:8 @ That ye have conspired, all of you, against me, and there is none that informeth me, while my son hath made a covenant with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you that is concerned for me, or informeth me that my son hath stirred up my servant to lie in wait against me, as it is this day?

lesserot@1Samuel:22:10 @ And he asked counsel for him of the Lord, and he gave him provision, and gave him also the sword of Goliath the philistine.

lesserot@1Samuel:22:11 @ Then sent the king to call Achimelech, the son of Achitub, the priest, and all his father’s house, the priests that were in Nob: and they came, all of them, to the king.

lesserot@1Samuel:22:13 @ And Saul said unto him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou didst give him bread, and a sword, and hast asked counsel for him of God, that he should rise to lie in wait against me, as it is this day!

lesserot@1Samuel:22:14 @ Then answered Achimelech the king, and said, And who is among all thy servants so trusted as David, and the king’s son–in–law, and freely admitted to thy private council, and is honored in thy house?

lesserot@1Samuel:22:15 @ Did I this day then begin to ask counsel for him of God? far be it from me; let not the king impute any thing unto his servant, to all the house of my father; for thy servant knew not of all this, either a little or great thing.

lesserot@1Samuel:22:17 @ And the king said unto the runners that stood about him, Turn round and slay the priests of the Lord; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew that he was fleeing, and did not disclose it to me. But the servants of the king would not stretch forth their hand to fall upon the priests of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:1 @ Then they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines are fighting against Ke’ilah, and they are plundering the threshing–floors.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:2 @ Thereupon David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I go and smite among these Philistines? And the Lord said unto David, Go and smite among the Philistines, and deliver Ke’ilah.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:3 @ And David’s men said unto him, Behold, here in Judah are we afraid: how much more then if we should go to Ke’ilah against the battle–arrays of the Philistines?

lesserot@1Samuel:23:4 @ Then David asked yet again counsel of the Lord. And the Lord answered him and said, Arise, Go down to Ke’ilah; for I deliver the Philistines into thy hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:5 @ So David and his men went to Ke’ilah; and he fought with the Philistines, and lead away their cattle, and smote among them a great slaughter. So David delivered the inhabitants of Ke’ilah.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:7 @ And it was told to Saul that David was come to Ke’ilah. And Saul said, God hath delivered him into my hand; for he is shut in, by entering into a town that hath gates and bars.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:8 @ And Saul called all the people together to war, to go down to Ke’ilah, to besiege David and his men.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:9 @ And David understood that Saul secretly devised mischief against him; and he said to Ebyathar the priest, Bring hither the ephod.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:10 @ Then said David, O Lord, God of Israel, thy servant hath heard for certain that Saul seeketh to come to Ke’ilah, to destroy the city for my sake.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:11 @ Will the men of Ke’ilah surrender me into his hand? will Saul come down as thy servant hath heard? O Lord, God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And the Lord said, He will come down.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:13 @ Then arose David and his men, about six hundred men, and departed out of Ke’ilah, and wandered about whithersoever they could go. And when it was told to Saul that David was escaped from Ke’ilah, he forbore to go forth.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:14 @ And David remained in the wilderness in strong–holds, and abode on the mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him all the time, but God delivered him not into his hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:15 @ And David saw that Saul was gone forth to seek his life: and David was in the wilderness of Ziph in the forest.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:16 @ And Jonathan, the son of Saul, arose and went to David into the forest, and strengthened his hand in God.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:17 @ And he said unto him, Fear not; for the hand of Saul my father will not find thee; and thou wilt be king over Israel, and I will be next unto thee; and also Saul my father knoweth this.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:18 @ And they made, both of them, a covenant before the Lord: and David remained in the forest; but Jonathan went to his house.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:19 @ Then came up the Ziphites unto Saul to Gib’ah, saying, Behold, David is hiding himself with us in the strong–holds in the forest, on the hill of Chachilah, which is on the right of the desert.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:22 @ Go, I pray you, make yet more preparations, and remark and see his place where his foot may be, who hath seen him there; for I am told that he dealeth with great subtilty.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:25 @ And Saul and his men went to make a search. And they told it to David: wherefore he came down to the rock, and abode in the wilderness of Ma’on. And when Saul heard this, he pursued after David into the wilderness of Ma’on.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:26 @ And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain; and David made haste to get away from before Saul; and Saul and his men were compassing David and his men to seize them.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:27 @ But a messenger came unto Saul, saying, Haste thee, and come; for the Philistines have invaded the land.

lesserot@1Samuel:23:28 @ Wherefore Saul returned from pursuing after David, and went against the Philistines: therefore they called that place Sela–hammachlekoth.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:1 @ And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from pursuing the Philistines, that it was told to him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of ‘En–gedi.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:2 @ Then took Saul three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:3 @ And he came to the sheepfolds by the way, and there was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men were sitting in the lower end of the cave.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:4 @ And the men of David said unto him, Behold, this is the day of which the Lord hath said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thy enemy into thy hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good in thy eyes.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:6 @ And he said unto his men, Far be it from me for the Lord’s sake, that I should do this thing unto my master, the Lord’s anointed, to stretch forth my hand against him; because he is the anointed of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:7 @ So David restrained his servants with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:8 @ David also arose afterward, and went forth out of the cave, and called after Saul, saying, My Lord, the king! And Saul then looked behind him, and David bowed his face to the earth, and prostrated himself.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:9 @ And David said to Saul, Wherefore wilt thou listen to men’s words, saying, Behold, David seeketh thy injury?

lesserot@1Samuel:24:10 @ Behold, this day thy eyes have seen how that the Lord had delivered thee today into my hand in the cave, and some one said that I should kill thee: but my soul felt compassion for thee: and I said, I will not stretch forth my hand against my Lord; because he is the anointed of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:11 @ And now, my father, see, yea, see the corner of thy robe in my hand; for in that I cut off the corner of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in my hand, and that I have not sinned against thee: yet thou liest in wait for my soul to take it.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:14 @ After whom is the king of Israel gone out? after whom art thou pursuing? after a dead dog, after a single flea.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:16 @ And it came to pass, When David had finished speaking these words unto Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:17 @ And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I; for thou hast done for me only what is good, whereas I have rewarded thee only with what is evil.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:18 @ And thou hast proved this day, that thou hast dealt well with me; forasmuch as when the Lord had surrendered me into thy hand, thou didst not kill me.

lesserot@1Samuel:24:19 @ For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go away on a good road? so may the Lord reward thee with good for what thou hast done unto me this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:8 @ Ask thy young men, and they will tell it thee. Therefore let the young men find favor in thy eyes; for on a festive day are we come: give, I pray thee, whatsoever thy hand is capable of unto thy servants, and to thy son, to David.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:10 @ And Nabal answered the servants of David, and said, Who is David? and who is the son of Jesse? now–a–days there are many servants that break away every one from his master.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:13 @ And David said unto his men, Gird ye on, every man, his sword. And they girded on, every man, his sword; and David also girded on his sword: and there went up after David about four hundred men, and two hundred abode by the baggage.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:15 @ Whereas the men have been very good unto us; and we have not been injured, neither have we missed any thing, all the time that we went about with them, while we were in the field:

lesserot@1Samuel:25:17 @ And now know and consider what thou canst do; for evil is determined on against our master, and against all his household; and he is too greatly a worthless man for me to speak to him.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:18 @ And Abigayil made haste, and took two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on asses.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:20 @ And it was so, as she was riding on the ass, and coming down by the covert of the mount, that, behold, David and his men came down toward her; and she met them.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:21 @ Now David had said, Yea, for naught only have I guarded all that belongeth to this fellow in the wilderness, so that not the least was missed of all that pertained unto him; and he hath requited me evil instead of good.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:24 @ And she fell at his feet, and said, On me, me, my lord, is the fault: and let thy hand–maid, I pray thee, speak in thy hearing, and listen to the words of thy hand–maid.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:25 @ Let not my Lord, I pray thee, turn his heart unto this worthless man, unto Nabal; for as his name is, so is he: Nabal is his name, and meanness is with him; but I thy hand–maid did not see the young men of my Lord, whom thou didst send.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:26 @ And now, my lord, as the Eternal liveth, and as thy soul liveth, it is the Lord who hath withholden thee from coming to blood–guiltiness, and from helping thyself with thy own hand; and now may like Nabal be thy enemies, and those that seek my Lord evil.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:27 @ And now this present which thy hand–maid hath brought unto my Lord, let it even be given unto the young men that follow in the train my Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:29 @ And though a man is risen up to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: yet will the soul of my Lord be bound in the bond of life with the Lord thy God; and the soul of thy enemies will he hurl away, as out of the middle of the sling.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:30 @ And it shall come to pass, when the Lord will do to my lord, in accordance with all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and will ordain thee as ruler over Israel,

lesserot@1Samuel:25:31 @ That this shall not be unto thee as a cause of offense and as a reproach of heart unto my lord, both by having shed blood without cause, and by my lord having righted himself; and when the Lord will do good unto my lord, then do thou remember thy hand–maid.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:32 @ And David said to Abigayil, Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me;

lesserot@1Samuel:25:33 @ And blessed be thy intelligence, and blessed be thou, who hast prevented me this day from coming unto blood–guiltiness, and from helping myself with my own hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:34 @ But truly, as the Lord the God of Israel liveth, who hath withdrawn me from injuring thee, except thou hadst hastened and come to meet me, surely there would not have been left unto Nabal by the morning–light so much as a dog.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:36 @ And Abigayil came to Nabal; and, behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal’s heart was merry within him, and he was exceedingly drunken; wherefore she told him not a word, either little or great, until the morning–light.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:37 @ But it happened in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things; and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:39 @ And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be the Lord, who hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and hath withheld his servant from evil; and the wickedness of Nabal hath the Lord returned upon his own head. And David sent and applied for Abigayil, to take her to himself for wife.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:42 @ And Abigayil hastened, and arose, and rode upon an ass, with her five damsels that went in her train; and she went after the messengers of David, and she became his wife.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:43 @ David also took Achino’am of Yizre’el; and both of them became thus his wives.

lesserot@1Samuel:25:44 @ But Saul had given Michal his daughter, David’s wife, to Palti, the son of Layish, who was of Gallim.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:2 @ Then arose Saul, and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, and with him were three thousand men chosen out of Israel, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:3 @ And Saul encamped on the hill of Chachilah, which is before the desert by the way; but David abode in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul was coming after him into the wilderness.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:5 @ And David arose, and came to the place where Saul was encamped; and David beheld the place where Saul lay, with Abner the son of Ner, the captain of his army; and Saul was lying in the midst of the ring, and the people were encamped round about him.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:6 @ Then commenced David and said to Achimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai the son of Zeruyah, the brother of Joab, saying, Who will go down with me to Saul to the camp? And Abishai said, I will readily go down with thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:7 @ So David and Abishai came to the people by night: and, behold, Saul lay sleeping within the ring, with his spear stuck in the ground by his head; but Abner and the people were lying round about him.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:8 @ Then said Abishai to David, God hath surrendered this day thy enemy into thy hand: and now let me strike him through, I pray thee, with the spear, even to the earth with one blow, and I will not give him a second one.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:9 @ But David said to Abishai, Destroy him not; for who hath stretched forth his hand against the Lord’s anointed, and remained guiltless?

lesserot@1Samuel:26:10 @ David said farthermore, As the Lord liveth, the Lord alone shall strike him down: either his day shall come that he die; or he shall go down into battle, and perish.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:11 @ Far be this from me for the sake of the Lord, that I should stretch forth my hand against the Lord’s anointed; but now, I pray thee, take thou the spear that is by his head, and the cruise of water, and let us go our way.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:12 @ So David took the spear and the cruise of water by the head of Saul, and they went their way; and no one saw it, and no one perceived it, and–no one awaked; for they were all sleeping; because a deep sleep from the Lord was fallen upon them.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:15 @ And David said to Abner, Art thou not a man? and who is like to thee in Israel? why then hast thou not kept guard over thy lord the king? for there came one of the people to destroy the king thy lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:16 @ This thing which thou hast done is not good. As the Lord liveth, ye deserve to die; because ye have not kept guard over your master, over the Lord’s anointed. And now see, where is the king’s spear, and the cruise of water that was by his head?

lesserot@1Samuel:26:17 @ And Saul recognized David’s voice, and he said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And David said, It is my voice, my Lord, O king.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:18 @ And he said, Why is this that my lord doth pursue after his servant? for what have I done? or what evil is in my hand?

lesserot@1Samuel:26:19 @ And now, I pray thee, let my Lord the king hear the words of his servant! If the Lord have stirred thee up against me, then may he accept the savor of an offering; but if they be the children of men, then be they cursed before the Lord; because they have driven me out this day so that I cannot attach myself on the inheritance of the Lord, saying, Go, serve other gods.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:20 @ Now, therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth far from the presence of the Lord; for the king of Israel is come out to seek a single flea, as one doth usually pursue a partridge on the mountains.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:21 @ Then said Saul, I have sinned; return, my son David; for I will not do thee harm any more, for the cause that my life was precious in thy eyes this day: behold, I have acted foolishly, and have erred exceedingly much.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:22 @ And David answered and said, Behold, here is the king’s spear! and let one of the young men come over and fetch it.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:23 @ And may the Lord recompense to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness; since the Lord delivered thee into my hand today, and I would not stretch forth my hand against the anointed of the Lord.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:24 @ And behold, as thy life was highly valued this day in my eyes, so may my life be highly valued in the eyes of the Lord, and may he deliver me out of all tribulation.

lesserot@1Samuel:26:25 @ Then said Saul to David, Blessed be thou my son David: thou wilt both do great things, and wilt also surely prevail. And David went then on his way, and Saul returned to his place.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:1 @ And David said in his heart, Now I may yet perish suddenly one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing better for me than that I should escape at once into the land of the Philistines, then Saul will abstain from me, to seek me any more in all the territory of Israel: and so shall I escape out of his hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:2 @ And David arose, and he passed over himself with the six hundred men that were with him unto Achish, the son of Ma’och, the king of Gath.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:3 @ And David remained with Achish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household, also David with his two wives, Achino’am the Yizre’elitess, and Abigayil, Nabal’s wife, the Carmelitess.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:5 @ And David said unto Achish, If now I have found grace in thy eyes, let them give me a place in some one of the country–towns, that I may dwell there; for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?

lesserot@1Samuel:27:6 @ Then gave Achish unto him on that day Ziklag: therefore hath Ziklag pertained unto the kings of Judah until this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:7 @ And the number of the days that David dwelt in the fields of the Philistines was a full year and four months.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:8 @ And David and his men went up, and invaded the Geshurites, and the Gizrites, and the ‘Amalekites; for these nations were of old the inhabitants of the land, till thou comest to Shur, and as far as the land of Egypt.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:9 @ And David smote the land, and left not alive either man or woman, and took away the flocks, and the oxen, and the asses, and the camels, and the apparel, and returned, and came to Achish.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:10 @ And Achish said, Whither have ye made an inroad today? And David said, Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Yerachmeelites, and against the south of the Kenites.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:11 @ And David left not alive either man or woman, to bring to Gath, saying, That they may not tell on us, saying, So hath David done, and so is his custom all the days he hath dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.

lesserot@1Samuel:27:12 @ And Achish had confidence in David, saying, He hath surely spoiled his odor among his people, among Israel; and he will become unto me a servant for ever.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:1 @ And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their camps together for warfare, to fight with Israel; and Achish said unto David, Thou must know that thou shalt go out with me into the camp, thou and thy men.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:2 @ And David said to Achish, By reason of this wilt thou thyself ascertain what thy servant will do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee the guard of my head for all times.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:3 @ Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city; and Saul had removed those that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:4 @ And the Philistines assembled themselves together, and came and encamped at Shunem: and Saul assembled together all Israel, and they encamped at Gilboa’.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:5 @ And when Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:7 @ Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek out for me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at ‘En–dor.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:8 @ And Saul disguised himself, and put on other garments, and he went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, Divine, I pray thee, unto me by the familiar spirit, and bring up for me the one whom I shall say unto thee.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:10 @ And Saul swore to her by the Lord, saying, As the Lord liveth, there shall no guilt attach to thee for this thing.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:14 @ And he said unto her, What is his form? And she said, An old man is coming up; and he is wrapt in a mantle. And so Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and prostrated himself.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:15 @ And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am greatly distressed, and the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and hath not answered me any more, either by the agency of the prophets, or by means of dreams; wherefore I have called thee, to make known unto me what I shall do.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:16 @ Then said Samuel, And why wilt thou ask me, seeing the Lord is departed from thee, and is become thy enemy?

lesserot@1Samuel:28:18 @ As thou didst not obey the voice of the Lord, and didst not execute his fierce wrath upon ‘Amalek; therefore hath the Lord done this thing unto thee this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:19 @ And the Lord will deliver also Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines; and tomorrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me: also the camp of Israel will the Lord deliver into the hand of the Philistines.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:20 @ Then fell Saul hastily with his full length to the earth, and was greatly afraid, because of the words of Samuel: there was also no strength in him; for he had not eaten any food all that day, and all that night.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:23 @ But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants urged him much, as also the woman; and he hearkened unto their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon the bed.

lesserot@1Samuel:28:25 @ And she brought it near before Saul, and before his servants; and they ate. Then they rose up, and went away that night.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:1 @ Now the Philistines assembled together all their camps at Aphek: and the Israelites encamped by the spring which is by Yizre’el.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:2 @ And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands; but David and his men passed on at the last with Achish.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:3 @ Then said the princes of the Philistines, What are these Hebrews to do? And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines, Behold, this is David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who hath been with me already a year, or even years, and I have not found the least in him from the day of his joining until this day?

lesserot@1Samuel:29:4 @ And the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Cause this man to go back, that he may return to his place whither thou hast assigned him; but he shall not go down with us to the battle, that he may not become an adversary to us in the battle; for wherewith could this person reconcile himself unto his master? is it not by means of the heads of these men?

lesserot@1Samuel:29:5 @ Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in the dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?

lesserot@1Samuel:29:6 @ Then did Achish call David, and say unto him, As the Lord liveth, that thou art upright, and that thy going out and thy coming in with me in the camp is good in my eyes; for I have not found in thee any evil from the day of thy coming unto me until this day; nevertheless in the eyes of the lords thou art not good.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:7 @ And now return, and go in peace, that thou mayest not do any evil in the eyes of the lords of the Philistines.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:8 @ And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant from the day that I have been before thee, until this day, that I shall not go to fight against the enemies of my Lord the king?

lesserot@1Samuel:29:9 @ And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou art good in my eyes, as an angel of God; nevertheless, the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:10 @ And now rise up early in the morning with the servants of thy master that are come with thee: and rise then up early in the morning, and when ye have light, go away.

lesserot@1Samuel:29:11 @ And David and his men rose up early to go away in the morning, to return unto the land of the Philistines; but the Philistines went up to Yizre’el.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:1 @ And it came to pass when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, that the ‘Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burnt it with fire;

lesserot@1Samuel:30:3 @ When therefore David and his men came to the city, behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, had been taken captive.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:6 @ And David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was imbittered, every man for his sons and for his daughters; but David fortified himself in the Lord his God.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:8 @ And David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop! shall I overtake them? And he said to him, Pursue; for thou wilt surely overtake them, and certainly recover.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:12 @ And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins, and he ate, and then his spirit returned to him; for he had not eaten any bread, nor drunk any water, three days and three nights.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:15 @ And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not surrender me into the hand of my master, and then will I bring thee down to this troop.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:16 @ And he brought him down; and behold, they were scattered over the face of all the country, eating and drinking, and dancing for joy, because of all the great spoil which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:18 @ And David recovered all that the ‘Amalekites had taken away; and his two wives also did David rescue.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:19 @ And there was nothing missing to them, from small to great, as also sons and daughters, and spoil, down to every thing that they had taken from them: the whole did David bring back.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:20 @ And David took all the flocks and the herds: these they drove before those other cattle, and said, This is David’s spoil.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:22 @ Then exclaimed every wicked and worthless man, of those that had gone with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them aught of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, and these they may lead away, and go.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:23 @ Then said David, Ye must not do so, my brethren; since the Lord hath given us this, and guarded us, and delivered the troop that came against us into our hand.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:24 @ And who will hearken unto you in this matter? but as is the part of him that went down to the battle, so shall be the part of him that remained with the baggage: together must they share.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:25 @ And it happened from that day and forward, that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel until this day.

lesserot@1Samuel:30:26 @ And when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil unto the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying, Behold, here is a present for you from the spoil of the enemies of the Lord:

lesserot@1Samuel:30:31 @ And to those who were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men had wandered about.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:1 @ Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and there fell down slain on mount Gilboa’.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:2 @ And the Philistines overtook Saul and his sons; and the Philistines smote Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malkishua’, the sons of Saul.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:4 @ And Saul said unto his armor–bearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and wantonly ill–use me. But his armor–bearer would not; for he was greatly afraid; wherefore Saul took the sword, and fell upon it.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:5 @ And when his armor–bearer saw that Saul was dead, then fell he likewise upon his sword, and died with him.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:6 @ Thus died Saul, and his three sons, and his armor–bearer, also all his men, on that same day together.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:7 @ And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and those that were on the other side of the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel had fled, and that Saul and his sons had died: they forsook the cities, and fled away; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:8 @ And it came to pass on the morrow, that the Philistines came to strip the slain; and they found Saul and his three sons fallen on mount Gilboa’.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:9 @ And they cut off his head, and stripped off his armor, and sent it into the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the house of their idols, and among the people.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:10 @ And they put his armor in the house of ‘Ashtaroth; and his body they fastened to the wall of Beth–shan.

lesserot@1Samuel:31:11 @ And when the inhabitants of Yabeshgil’ad heard concerning him that which the Philistines had done to Saul:

lesserot@1Samuel:31:12 @ Then arose all the valiant men, and walked all the night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth–shan, and they came to Yabesh, and burnt them there.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:3 @ And David said unto him, From where comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:4 @ And David said unto him, What took place there? I pray thee, tell me. And he said, That the people are fled from the battle, and that also many of the people are fallen and have died; and that also Saul and Jonathan his son are dead.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:5 @ And David said unto the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul is dead as also Jonathan his son?

lesserot@2Samuel:1:6 @ And the young man that told him said, I happened entirely by chance to be upon mount Gilboa’, when, behold, there was Saul leaning upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and horsemen had overtaken him.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:9 @ And he said unto me, Place thyself, I pray thee, by me, and slay me; for a mortal tremor hath seized on me, although my life is yet whole in me.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:10 @ So I placed myself by him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after his fall; and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and I have brought them unto my lord hither.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:11 @ David thereupon took hold of his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him:

lesserot@2Samuel:1:12 @ And they lamented, and wept, and fasted until the evening, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the Lord, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:17 @ And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son:

lesserot@2Samuel:1:18 @ And he said, That the children of Judah should be taught the bow; behold it is written in the book of Yashar.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:19 @ O beauty of Israel! upon the high places slain: how are the mighty fallen!

lesserot@2Samuel:1:20 @ Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon; that the daughters of the Philistines may not be glad, that the daughters of the uncircumcised may not rejoice.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:24 @ O daughters of Israel, weep for Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, with beautiful dresses, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel.

lesserot@2Samuel:1:26 @ I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan; very dear hast thou been unto me: wonderful was thy love for me, passing the love of women.

lesserot@2Samuel:2:1 @ And it came to pass after this, that David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up into one of the cities of Judah? And the Lord said unto him, Go up. And David said, Whither shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron.

lesserot@2Samuel:2:18 @ And there were at that place three sons of Zeruyah, Joab, and Abishai, and ‘Asahel: and ‘Asahel was as fleet of foot as any roe in the field.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:1 @ And it came to pass after this, that Abshalom the son of David had a handsome sister, whose name was Thamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:2 @ And Amnon worried himself so that he fell sick on account of Thamar his sister; for she was a virgin; and it was impossible in the eyes of Amnon to do her the least.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:4 @ And he said to him, Why art thou so wasted, O prince, morning after morning? Wilt thou not tell me? Then said Amnon to him, Thamar the sister of Abshalom my brother do I love.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:5 @ And Yonadab said to him, Lie down on thy couch, and feign thyself sick; and when thy father cometh to see thee, thou must say unto him, Let, I pray thee, Thamar my sister come, and give me some food, and prepare the refreshment before my eyes, in order that I may see it, and eat it out of her hand.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:6 @ So Amnon lay down, and feigned himself sick; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, Let, I pray thee, Thamar my sister come, and mix up before my eyes a couple of cakes, that I may enjoy them out of her hand.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:8 @ So Thamar went to the house of Amnon her brother, and he was lying down; and she took the dough and kneaded, and mixed it up before his eyes, and baked the cakes;

lesserot@2Samuel:13:11 @ And when she had brought them near unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come, lie with me, my sister.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:12 @ But she said to him, No, my brother, do not violate me; for such a deed ought not to be done in Israel; do not this scandalous act!

lesserot@2Samuel:13:13 @ And I, whither should I carry my shame? and as for thee, thou wouldst be like one of the worthless in Israel; but now, O speak, I pray thee, unto the king, for he will not withhold me from thee.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:15 @ Then did Amnon hate her with a very great hatred; so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her; and Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:16 @ And she said unto him, not add this yet greater wrong than the other which thou hast done with me, to send me away! But he would not listen to her;

lesserot@2Samuel:13:17 @ And he called his young man, his servant, and said, Do send this woman away from me, into the street, and lock the door behind her.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:18 @ And she had on a garment of divers colors; for thus were usually appareled the king’s daughters when virgins, in robes; and his servant brought her out into the street, and locked the door behind her.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:20 @ Then said to her Abshalom her brother, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but now, my sister, keep silence, he is thy brother, take this thing not to thy heart. So Thamar remained, and was secluded in the house of Abshalom her brother.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:21 @ And when king David heard all these things, it displeased him greatly.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:22 @ And Abshalom spoke not with Amnon either bad or good; for Abshalom hated Amnon, because he had violated Thamar his sister.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:23 @ And it came to pass after two full years, that Abshalom had sheep–shearers at Ba’al–chazor, which is near Ephraim; and Abshalom invited all the king’s sons.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:24 @ And Abshalom came to the king, and said, Behold, now, thy servant hath sheep–shearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:28 @ Now Abshalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye, I pray you, when Annon’s heart is merry with wine, and I say unto you, Smite Amnon: then kill him, fear not; behold, it is I who command it you; be firm and show yourselves men of valor.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:29 @ And the servants of Abshalom did unto Amnon as Abshalom had commanded. Then arose all the king’s sons, and they rode off, every man on his mule, and fled.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:30 @ And it happened, while they were on the way, that the report came to David, saying, Abshalom hath smitten all the king’s sons, and there is not one of them left.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:31 @ Then arose the king and rent his garments, and laid himself on the earth: and all his servants were standing by with their garments rent.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:32 @ But Yonadab the son of Shim’ah, David’s brother, commenced and said, Let not my Lord suppose that they have slain all the young men, the king’s sons; since Amnon alone is dead; for by the command of Abshalom was this ordained from the day that he violated Thamar his sister.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:33 @ And now let not my Lord the king take the thing to his heart, thinking, that all the king’s sons are dead; for Amnon alone is dead.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:34 @ And Abshalom flew away. And the young man that was watching lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold, many people were coming by the way behind him, by the side of the mount.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:36 @ And it happened, as he had just finished speaking, that, behold, the king’s sons came, and they lifted up their voice and wept; and also the king and all his servants wept very much.

lesserot@2Samuel:13:37 @ But Abshalom had fled; and he went to Talmai, the son of ‘Ammihud, the king of Geshur: and mourned for his son all the time.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:2 @ Then sent Joab to Tekoa’, and he fetched thence a wise woman, and said to her, Feign. I pray thee, as though thou mournest, and do put on mourning garments, and anoint thyself not with oil; but be as a woman that hath these many days been mourning for the dead.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:5 @ And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she said, Truly, I am a widow–woman; since my husband is dead.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:7 @ And, behold, the whole family is risen up against thy handmaid, and they said, Give up the slayer of his brother, that we may have him put to death, for the life of his brother whom he hath killed; and we will destroy also the heir: and thus they will quench my coal which is remaining, so as not to allow to my husband either name or remainder upon the face of the earth.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:8 @ And the king said unto the woman, Go to thy house, and I will issue charge concerning thee.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:9 @ Then said the woman of Tekoa unto the king, On me, my Lord, O king, be the iniquity, and on my father’s house: and may the king and his throne be guiltless.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:13 @ And the woman said, Wherefore then hast thou thought such a thing against the people of God? and since the king doth speak this thing, he is as a guilty man, if the king do not permit his banished one to return home.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:14 @ For we must needs die, and are as water which is spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; and yet doth God not take away life; and he deviseth thoughts, so that the banished one may not remain banished from him.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:15 @ And now that I am come to speak unto my Lord the king of this thing, because the people made me afraid; and therefore thy hand–maid said, I will still speak unto the king; perhaps the king may act the word of his hand–maid.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:16 @ For the king may hear, to deliver his hand–maid out of the hand of the man to exterminate me and my son together out of the inheritance of God.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:17 @ And thy hand–maid said, May the word of my Lord the king now become repose; for as an angel of God, so is my Lord the king to comprehend the good and the bad: and may the Lord thy God be with thee.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:19 @ And the king said, Is not the hand of Joab with thee in all this? And the woman answered and said, As thy soul liveth, my Lord, O king! none can turn to the right or to the left from all that my Lord the king hath spoken; for it was thy servant Joab who hath bidden me, and it was he that hath put in the mouth of thy hand–maid all these words.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:20 @ In order to change the appearance of the matter hath thy servant Joab done this thing: and my Lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all that is on the earth.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:21 @ And the king said unto Joab, Behold, now, thou hast done this thing: go then, bring back the young man Abshalom.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:22 @ And Joab fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself, and blessed the king: and Joab said, Today is thy servant convinced that I have found grace in thy eyes, my Lord, O king; since the king hath acted in accordance with the word of thy servant.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:24 @ And the king said, Let him repair to his own house, but my face he shall not see. So Abshalom repaired to his own house, but the king’s face he did not see.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:25 @ And like Abshalom there was no man as handsome in all Israel, so that he was greatly praised: from the sole of his foot up to the crown of his head there was no blemish on him.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:26 @ And when he shaved off his head he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels by the king’s weight.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:27 @ And there was born unto Abshalom three sons and one daughter, whose name was Thamar: this one was a woman of handsome appearance.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:30 @ He thereupon said unto his servants, See, Joab’s field is alongside of mine, and he hath barley there: go and set it on fire. And Abshalom’s servants set the field on fire.

lesserot@2Samuel:14:31 @ Then did Joab arise, and he went to Abshalom unto his house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants set the field belonging to me on fire?

lesserot@2Samuel:14:33 @ So Joab went to the king, and told it to him: and he called for Abshalom, who came to the king, and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king; and the king kissed Abshalom.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:1 @ And it came to pass after this, that Abshalom provided for himself a chariot and horses, and fifty men who ran before him.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:2 @ And Abshalom rose up early, and stood on the side of the way to the gate: and it happened, that whenever a man who had a controversy came to the king for judgment, Abshalom called to him, and said, From what city art thou? And he said, Thy servant is from one of the tribes of Israel.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:3 @ And Abshalom said unto him, See, thy words are good and right; but no one listeneth to thee on the part of the king.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:5 @ And it happened, that when a man came nigh to bow down to him, he used to put forth his hand, and laid hold of him, and kissed him.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:6 @ And Abshalom did after this manner to all Israel that came to the king for judgment: and thus did Abshalom steal the heart of the men of Israel.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:10 @ But Abshalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, When ye hear the sound of the cornet, then shall ye say, Abshalom is become king at Hebron.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:12 @ And Abshalom sent for Achithophel the Gilomite, David’s counsellor, from his city, from Giloh, while he offered the sacrifices. And the conspiracy became strong; and the people increased continually with Abshalom.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:13 @ And there came a news–bearer to David, saying, the heart of the men of Israel is turned after Abshalom.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:14 @ And David said unto all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee; for there will not be any escape for us from Abshalom: make haste, to depart, lest he make haste and overtake us suddenly and overwhelm us with evil, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:16 @ And the king went forth, and all his household in his train. And the king left behind ten women, who were concubines, to guard the house.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:17 @ And the king went forth, and all the people in his train, and tarried in a place that was far off.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:18 @ And all his servants passed on alongside of him, and all the Kerethites, and all the Pelethites; and all the Gittites, six hundred men, who were come in his train from Gath, passed on before the king.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:22 @ And David said then to Ittai, Go and pass on. And Ittai the Gittite passed on, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:24 @ And lo, Zadok also, and all the Levites with him, were bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down the ark of God; and Ebyathar went up, until all the people had finished passing out of the city.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:25 @ And the king said unto Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city; if I shall find favor in the eyes of the Lord, he will bring me back again, and show me both it, and his dwelling;

lesserot@2Samuel:15:26 @ But if he should thus say, I have no delight in thee: here am I, let him do to me as seemeth good in his eyes.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:27 @ The king said also unto Zadok the priest, If thou see the justice of this, return to the city in peace: and your two sons, Achima’az thy son, and Jonathan the son of Ebyathar, are with you.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:30 @ And David went up by the ascent of the mount of Olives, weeping as he went up, and had his head covered, and he was walking barefoot: and all the people that were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:31 @ And some one told David, saying, Achithophel is among the conspirators with Abshalom. And David said, I pray thee, turn into foolishness the counsel of Achithophel, O Lord!

lesserot@2Samuel:15:32 @ And it came to pass, that, when David was come to the top, where he used to bow himself down to God, behold, Chushai the Arkite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head.

lesserot@2Samuel:15:34 @ But if thou shouldst return to the city, and say unto Abshalom, Thy servant will I be, O king; thy father’s servant have I been this long time past, and now will I also be thy servant: then mightest thou defeat for me the counsel of Achithophel.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:1 @ And when David was passed a little beyond the top, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth came toward him, with a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves of bread, and a hundred bunches of raisins, and a hundred of dried figs, and a bottle of wine.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:3 @ And the king said, And where is thy master’s son? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he remaineth at Jerusalem; for he said, Today will the house of Israel restore unto me the kingdom of my father.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:6 @ And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right and on his left.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:8 @ The Lord hath brought back upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou didst reign; and the Lord hath placed the kingdom into the hand of Abshalom thy son; and, behold, thou art now in thy misfortune, because a man of blood art thou.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:9 @ Then said Abishai the son of Zeruyah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my Lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and remove his head.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:11 @ And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, who hath come forth out of my own body, seeketh my life: how much more now this Benjamite? let him alone, and let him curse; for the Lord hath said it to him.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:12 @ Perhaps the Lord will look on my affliction, and the Lord will requite me good instead of his cursing this day.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:13 @ And David and his men went on the way. And Shim’i went on the side of the mount opposite to him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones toward him, and cast dust.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:15 @ And Abshalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Achithophel with him.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:17 @ And Abshalom said to Chushai, Is this thy kindness for thy friend? why art thou not gone with thy friend?

lesserot@2Samuel:16:18 @ And Chushai said unto Abshalom, No; but whom the Lord, and this people, and all the men of Israel have chosen, his will I be, and with him will I remain.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:19 @ And secondly, who is it whom I shall serve? is it not in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father’s presence, so will I be in thy presence.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:21 @ And Achithophel said unto Abshalom, Go in unto thy father’s concubines, whom he hath left to guard the house; and all Israel will hear that thou art in bad odor with thy father: and then will the hands of all that are with thee become strong.

lesserot@2Samuel:16:22 @ So they spread for Abshalom a tent upon the roof; and Abshalom went in unto his father’s concubines before the eyes of all Israel.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:1 @ Moreover Achithophel said unto Abshalom, Do let me now select twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night;

lesserot@2Samuel:17:2 @ And I will come upon him while he is weary and weak–handed, and will terrify him; so that all the people that are with him will flee; and I will smite the king alone;

lesserot@2Samuel:17:4 @ And the thing was pleasing in the eyes of Abshalom, and in the eyes of all the elders of Israel.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:5 @ Then said Abshalom, Do call now also Chushai the Arkite, and let us hear what he likewise beareth in his mouth.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:6 @ And when Chushai was come to Abshalom, Abshalom said unto him, as followeth, Such words as these hath Achithophel spoken: shall we do after his words? if not, do thou speak.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:7 @ And Chushai said unto Abshalom, The counsel that Achithophel hath given at this time is not good.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:8 @ And Chushai said, Thou well knowest thy father and his men, that they are mighty men, and are of an embittered spirit, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field: and thy father is also a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:9 @ Behold, he is now hidden in some one of the pits, or in some one of the places: and it will come to pass, when some of them should fall at the first onset, that whosoever heareth it would say, There hath been slaughter among the people that follow Abshalom.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:10 @ And he also that is most valiant, whose heart is as the heart of the lion, would become quite discouraged; for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they who are with him are valiant persons.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:11 @ But I counsel that all Israel be gathered together unto thee, from Dan even to Beer–sheba’, like the sand that is by the sea in multitude: while thou in thy own person goest into the fight.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:13 @ And if he should withdraw into a city, then shall all Israel bring ropes to that city, and we will drag it into the stream, until there be not found there even one small stone.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:14 @ And Abshalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Chushai the Arkite is better than the counsel of Achithophel. But the Lord had ordained to frustrate the good counsel of Achithophel, to the intent that the Lord might bring the evil upon Abshalom.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:15 @ Then said Chushai unto Zadok and to Ebyathar the priests, Thus and thus did Achithophel counsel Abshalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counseled.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:16 @ Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying, Lodge not this night in the plains of the wilderness, but rather pass over at once; lest the king be entirely ruined, and all the people that are with him.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:18 @ Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told it to Abshalom; but they went, both of them, quickly away, and came to the house of a man in Bachurim, who had a well in his court; and they went down thither.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:21 @ And it came to pass, after they were gone, that they came up out of the well, and went and told it to king David, and they said unto David, Arise, and pass quickly over the water; for thus hath Achithophel counseled against you.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:22 @ Then did David arise, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over the Jordan: by the time the morning was light, not even one was lacking who had not passed over the Jordan.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:23 @ And when Achithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled the ass, and arose, and went home to his house, to his city, and gave his charge to his household, and hanged himself; and he died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:24 @ Then came David to Machanayim: and Abshalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:25 @ And Abshalom placed ‘Amassa instead of Joab as captain over the army: and ‘Amassa was the son of a man, whose name was Yithra the Israelite, who had gone in to Abigal the daughter of Nachash, the sister of Zeruyah Joab’s mother.

lesserot@2Samuel:17:26 @ And Israel and Abshalom encamped in the land of Gil’ad.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:2 @ And David sent forth the people a third part under the command of Joab, and a third part under the command of Abishai the son of Zeruyah, Joab’s brother, and a third part under the command of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said unto the people, I myself also will without fail go forth with you.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:3 @ But the people said, Thou shalt not go forth; for if we should have to flee away, they will not care for us; and if half of us die, they will not care for us; for now thou art worth ten thousand of us: therefore now it is better that thou shouldst be a succor to us out of the city.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:5 @ And the king commanded Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Deal gently for my sake with the young man, with Abshalom. And all the people heard when the king charged all the captains with respect to Abshalom.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:6 @ So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the battle took place in the forest of Ephraim.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:7 @ And the people of Israel were smitten there before David’s servants, and the slaughter was great there on that day––twenty thousand men.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:9 @ And Abshalom happened to come before the servants of David. And Abshalom was riding upon a mule, and the mule came under the thick boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was left hanging between the heaven and the earth: and the mule that was under him passed on.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:12 @ And the man said unto Joab, And though I should weigh on my hands a thousand shekels of silver, I would not stretch forth my hand against the king’s son; for before our ears did the king charge thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Take heed, whoever it be, of the young man, of Abshalom.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:13 @ Or should I even have acted with falsehood against my own life, since there is no matter which can be hidden from the king; thou wouldst surely have placed thyself aloof.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:14 @ Then said Joab, I will not wait thus before thee. And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them into the heart of Abshalom, who was yet alive in the midst of the oak.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:16 @ And Joab blew the cornet, and the people returned from pursuing after Israel; for Joab restrained the people.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:17 @ And they took Abshalom, and cast him down in the forest, into the large pit, and erected upon him a very great heap of stones: and all Israel fled, every one, to his tents.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:18 @ Now Abshalom had taken and reared up for himself in his lifetime, the pillar, which is in the king’s dale; for he said, I have no son, so as to keep my name in remembrance; and he called the pillar after his own name: and it was called Abshalom’s monument, even until this day.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:19 @ And Achima’az the son of Zadok said, Do let me run, I pray thee, and bear the king tidings, that the Lord hath done him justice from the power of his enemies.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:20 @ And Joab said unto him, Thou art not the man to bear tidings this day, and thou shalt bear tidings another day; but this day thou shalt bear no tidings, because the king’s son is dead.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:28 @ And Achima’az called, and said unto the king, Peace. And he prostrated himself to the king with his face to the earth, and said, Blessed be the Lord thy God, who hath surrendered the men that had lifted up their hand against my Lord the king.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:29 @ And the king said, Is the young man Abshalom safe? And Achima’az answered, I saw the greatest crowd when Joab sent off the king’s servant, and thy servant; but I know not what hath happened.

lesserot@2Samuel:18:31 @ And, behold, the Cushi came; and the Cushi said, Let my lord the king receive the tidings, that the Lord hath done thee justice this day from the power of all those that had risen up against thee.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:14 @ And this one passed through all the tribes of Israel unto Abel, which is of Beth–ma’achah, and all the Berim: and they assembled themselves together, and went also after him.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:16 @ Then called a wise woman out of the city, Hear, hear: say, I pray you, unto Joab, Come near as far as hither, that I may speak with thee.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:19 @ I am one of the peaceful and faithful in Israel; thou seekest to overthrow a city and a metropolis in Israel: why wilt thou destroy the inheritance of the Lord?

lesserot@2Samuel:20:21 @ The matter is not so; but a man from the mountains of Ephraim, Sheba’ the son of Bichri is his name, hath lifted up his hand against the king, against David: give him up alone, and I will withdraw from the city. And the woman said unto Joab, Behold, his head shall be cast down to thee over the wall.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:22 @ And the woman came unto all the people with her wisdom; and they cut off the head of Sheba’ the son of Bichri, and cast it down to Joab: and he blew the cornet, and they scattered themselves from the city, every man to his tents.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:23 @ Now Joab was over all the army of Israel; and Benayah the son of Yehoyada’ was over the Kerethites and over the Pelethites;

lesserot@2Samuel:21:6 @ Let there be delivered unto us seven men of his sons, and we will hang them up unto the Lord in Gib’ah of Saul, the chosen of the Lord. And the king said, I will give them.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:12 @ And David then went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Yabeshgil’ad, who had stolen them from the market–place of Bethshan, where the Philistines had hanged them up, at the time the Philistines had smitten Saul at Gilboa’:

lesserot@2Samuel:21:13 @ And he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son; and they gathered up the bones of those that had been hanged.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:14 @ And they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin at Zela’, in the sepulchre of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king had commanded. And after that God was entreated for the land.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:16 @ And Yishbi at Nob, who was of the children of the Raphah, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of copper, he being girded with a new armor, thought to slay David.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:17 @ But Abishai the son of Zeruyah succored him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then swore the men of David unto him, saying, Thou shalt go out no more with us to battle, that thou mayest not quench the lamp of Israel.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:19 @ And there was again a battle at Gob with the Philistines, when Elchanan the son of Ya’are–oregim, the Bethlechemite, slew Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.

lesserot@2Samuel:23:10 @ He then arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand did cleave unto the sword: and the Lord wrought a great victory on that day; and the people returned after him only to strip.

lesserot@2Samuel:24:9 @ And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.

lesserot@2Samuel:24:10 @ And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the Lord, I have sinned greatly in what I have done; and now, I beseech thee, O Lord, cause the iniquity of thy servant to pass away; for I have acted very foolishly.

lesserot@2Samuel:24:11 @ And when David was arisen in the morning, The word of the Lord came unto Gad the prophet, David’s seer, saying,

lesserot@2Samuel:24:20 @ And Aravnah looked up, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Aravnah went out, and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.

lesserot@2Samuel:24:21 @ And Aravnah said, Wherefore is my Lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy from thee the threshingfloor, to build an altar unto the Lord, that the plague may be stayed from the people.

lesserot@2Samuel:24:22 @ And Aravnah said unto David, Let my Lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good in his eyes: behold, the oxen are here for burnt–offerings, and the threshing rollers and the harness of the oxen for wood.

lesserot@2Samuel:24:25 @ And David built there an altar unto the Lord, and offered burnt–offerings and peace–offerings: and the Lord was entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.

lesserot@1Kings:1:20 @ And as for thee, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, to tell them, who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

lesserot@1Kings:1:21 @ Otherwise it would come to pass, when my lord the king sleepeth with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon may be counted offenders.

lesserot@1Kings:1:29 @ And the king swore and said, As the Lord liveth, that hath redeemed my soul out of all distress,

lesserot@1Kings:1:30 @ Even as I have sworn unto thee by the Lord the God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and only he shall sit upon my throne in my stead: even so will I certainly do this day.

lesserot@1Kings:1:40 @ And all the people went up after him, and the people blew on flutes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth was rent at their noise.

lesserot@1Kings:1:41 @ And Adoniyah and all the guests that were with him heard it as they had just finished eating: and when Joab heard the sound of the cornet, he said, Wherefore is this noise of the city in an uproar?

lesserot@1Kings:1:45 @ And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him as king on the Gichon; and they are come up from there rejoicing, and the city hath been set in commotion. This is the noise that ye have heard.

lesserot@1Kings:1:48 @ And also thus hath the king said, Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who hath given this day one who sitteth on my throne, while my eyes see it.

lesserot@1Kings:1:49 @ And all the guests that were with Adoniyah were terrified, and rose up, and went, every man, on his own way.

lesserot@1Kings:1:51 @ And it was told unto Solomon, saying, Behold, Adoniyah feareth king Solomon; and, behold, he hath caught hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear unto me today that he will not slay his servant with the sword.

lesserot@1Kings:1:52 @ And Solomon said, If he will become a worthy man, there shall not a hair of his fall to the earth; but if any wrong shall be found on him, then shall he die.

lesserot@1Kings:2:1 @ And when the days of David drew near that he should die, he charged Solomon his son, saying,

lesserot@1Kings:2:15 @ And he said, Thou well knowest that mine was the kingdom, and that on me all Israel had set their faces, that I should reign: nevertheless the kingdom was turned about, and became my brother’s; for from the Lord was it his.

lesserot@1Kings:2:23 @ Then swore king Solomon by the Lord, saying, May God do so to me, and may he thus continue, if Adoniyah have not spoken this word against his own life.

lesserot@1Kings:2:24 @ And now, as the Lord liveth, who hath established me, and seated me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me a house, as he hath spoken, this very day shall Adoniyah be put to death.

lesserot@1Kings:2:26 @ And unto Ebyathar the priest said the king, Go to ‘Anathoth, unto thy own fields; for thou art a man worthy of death; but on this day will I not put thee to death; because thou hast borne the ark of the Lord Eternal before David my father, and because thou was afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.

lesserot@1Kings:2:27 @ So Solomon banished Ebyathar that he should not be priest unto the Lord, to fulfill the word of the Lord, which he had spoken concerning the house of ‘Eli in Shiloh.

lesserot@1Kings:2:32 @ And may the Lord bring back his blood–guiltiness upon his own head, because he fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, while my father David knew it not, Abner the son of Ner, the captain of the army of Israel, and ‘Amassa the son of Yether, the captain of the army of Judah.

lesserot@1Kings:3:11 @ And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; and hast not asked for thyself riches, nor hast asked the life of thy enemies; but hast asked for thyself discernment to understand judgment:

lesserot@1Kings:6:9 @ So he built the house, and finished it; and covered the house with hollow tiles, and with boards of cedar.

lesserot@1Kings:6:12 @ This house which thou art building––if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my ordinances, and keep all my commandments to walk in them: then will I perform my word with thee, which I have spoken unto David thy father.

lesserot@1Kings:6:14 @ So did Solomon build the house, and finish it.

lesserot@1Kings:6:17 @ And the house, that is, the temple before it, was forty cubits long.

lesserot@1Kings:6:22 @ And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until all the house was finished: also the whole altar that was before the debir did he overlay with gold.

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

lesserot@1Kings:7:1 @ But his own house was Solomon building thirteen years, and then he finished all his house.

lesserot@1Kings:7:8 @ And his house where he dwelt in another court within the porch, was of the like work: and Solomon made also a house for Pharaoh’s daughter, whom he had taken for wife, like unto this porch.

lesserot@1Kings:7:14 @ He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in copper: and he was filled with wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge, to make every work in copper; and he came to king Solomon, and did all his work.

lesserot@1Kings:7:31 @ And its mouth was within the capital and above a cubit in height; but the mouth of this was rounded after the work of the base, a cubit and a half cubit; and also upon its mouth were carvings; and their borders were square, not rounded.

lesserot@1Kings:7:37 @ After this manner did he make the ten bases: one casting, one measure, one form, was there for all of them.

lesserot@1Kings:7:45 @ And the pots, and the shovels, and the basins; and all these vessels, which Hiram had made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of polished copper.

lesserot@1Kings:9:15 @ And this is the manner of the levy which king Solomon raised, to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and the Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Chazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.

lesserot@1Kings:12:33 @ So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Beth–el on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, in the month which he had falsely devised of his own heart; and he ordained a feast unto the children of Israel, and he went up to the altar, to burn incense.

lesserot@1Chronicles:14:8 @ But when the Philistines heard that David had been anointed as king over all Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David: and David heard of it, and went out against them.

lesserot@1Chronicles:14:9 @ And the Philistines came and spread themselves out in the valley of Rephaim.

lesserot@1Chronicles:14:10 @ And David asked counsel of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said unto him, Go up; and I will deliver them into thy hand.

lesserot@1Chronicles:14:13 @ And the Philistines once again, and spread themselves out in the valley.

lesserot@1Chronicles:14:15 @ And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of walking on the tops of the mulberry–trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle; for God will be gone forth before thee to smite the camp of the Philistines.

lesserot@1Chronicles:14:16 @ And David did as God had commanded him; and they smote the camp of the Philistines from Gib’on as far as Gezer.

lesserot@1Chronicles:15:2 @ Then said David, None shall carry the ark of God but the Levites; for of them hath the Lord made choice to carry the ark of God, and to minister unto him for ever.

lesserot@1Chronicles:15:3 @ And David assembled all Israel to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the Lord unto its place, which he had prepared for it.

lesserot@1Chronicles:15:14 @ So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the Lord the God of Israel.

lesserot@1Chronicles:15:17 @ So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel, and of his brethren, Assaph the son of Berechyahu, and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan the son of Kushayahu;

lesserot@1Chronicles:15:25 @ And it was David, with the elders of Israel, and the officers over the thousands, who went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the house of ‘Obed–edom with joy.

lesserot@1Chronicles:15:28 @ Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the Lord with shouting, and with the sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, playing aloud on psalteries and harps.

lesserot@1Chronicles:15:29 @ And it happened, as the ark of the covenant of the Lord came as far as the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked through the window, and saw king David dancing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:3 @ And he dealt out to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:4 @ And he placed before the ark of the Lord several of the Levites as ministers, and to chaunt hymns, and to give praise and thanks unto the Lord the God of Israel:

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:7 @ On that day––then did David appoint for the first time to give thanks to the Lord through means of Assaph and his brethren.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:8 @ O give thanks unto the Lord; call on his name; make known among the people his deeds.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:9 @ Sing unto him, sing praises unto him: speak of all his wonderful works.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:10 @ Glorify yourselves in his holy name: let the heart of those rejoice that seek the Lord.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:11 @ Inquire after the Lord and his strength: seek his presence evermore.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:12 @ Remember his wonderful works which he hath done, his tokens, and the decrees of his mouth;

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:25 @ For great is the Lord, and greatly praised; and he is to be feared above all gods.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:27 @ Majesty and honor are in his presence, strength and gladness are in his place.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:29 @ Ascribe unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; take up an offering, and come into his presence; bow down before the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

lesserot@1Chronicles:16:36 @ Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel from everlasting even unto everlasting. And all the people said, Amen, and praise unto the Lord.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:1 @ And it came to pass, when David dwelt in his house, that David said unto Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in a house of cedar, while the ark of the covenant of the Lord is under curtains.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:2 @ And Nathan said unto David, All that is in thy heart do; for God is with thee.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:5 @ For I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Israel even until this day; but have been from tent to tent, and from tabernacle.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:6 @ In all the places where I moved about among all Israel, did I speak a word to any one of the judges of Israel, whom I had ordained to feed my people, saying, Why have ye not built for me a house of cedar?

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:7 @ Now therefore, thus shalt thou say unto my servant, to David, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, I took thee away from the sheepcote, from behind the flocks, to be a ruler over my people Israel;

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:9 @ And I have procured a place for my people Israel, and I have planted them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and be no more troubled; and that the children of wickedness shall not waste them any more, as aforetimes,

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:10 @ And since the time that I ordained judges to be over my people Israel; and I have humbled all thy enemies; and now I tell thee that the Lord will build for thee a house.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:11 @ And it shall come to pass, that, when thy days will be completed that thou must go with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, who shall be of thy sons, and I will establish his kingdom.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:12 @ He it is that shall build for me a house, and I will establish his throne for ever.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:14 @ But I will place him firmly in my house and in my kingdom for evermore; and his throne shall be established for ever.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:15 @ In accordance with all these words, and in accordance with all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:16 @ Then went king David in and sat down before the Lord, and he said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me as far as hitherward?

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:17 @ And this was too small a thing in thy eyes, O God, and thou hast spoken concerning thy servant’s house for a distant time, and hast regarded me as though I belonged to the rank of a man of high degree, O Lord God.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:19 @ O Lord, for the sake of thy servant, and in accordance with thy own heart, hast thou done all this great thing, to make known all these great things.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:20 @ O Lord, there is none like thee, and there is no god beside thee, in accordance with all that we have heard with our ears.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:21 @ And who is like thy people Israel, the only nation on the earth which God went to redeem for himself as a people, to acquire for thyself a name for great and terrible deeds, by driving out nations from before thy people, which thou hadst redeemed out of Egypt?

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:22 @ And thou hast instituted thy people Israel unto thyself as a people for ever; and thou, Lord, art indeed become their God.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:23 @ And now, O Lord, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house be verified for ever, and do as thou hast spoken.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:24 @ Yea, let it be verified, and let thy name be magnified unto everlasting, that men may say, The Lord of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God for Israel; and may the house of David thy servant be established before thee.

lesserot@1Chronicles:17:26 @ And now, O Lord, thou art the God, and thou hast spoken concerning thy servant this goodness:

lesserot@1Chronicles:18:1 @ And it came to pass after this, that David smote the Philistines, and humbled them; and he took Gath and its dependent towns out of the hand of the Philistines.

lesserot@1Chronicles:18:3 @ David also smote Hadar’ezer the king of Zobah, at Chamath, as he went to establish his dominion at the river Euphrates.

lesserot@1Chronicles:18:10 @ Then did he send Hadoram his son unto king David, to ask him after his well–being, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadar’ezer, and smitten him: for Hadar’ezer had been engaged in wars with To’u; and all manner of vessels of gold and silver and copper.

lesserot@1Chronicles:18:11 @ Also these did king David sanctify unto the Lord, with the silver and the gold that he had carried away from all the nations, from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of ‘Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from ‘Amalek.

lesserot@1Chronicles:18:13 @ And he put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became servants unto David. And the Lord helped David withersoever he went.

lesserot@1Chronicles:18:14 @ And David reigned over all Israel, and he did what is just and right unto all his people.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:1 @ And it came to pass after this, that Nachash the king of the children of ‘Ammon died, and his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:2 @ And David said, I will show kindness unto Chanun the son of Nachash, because his father showed kindness unto me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And the servants of David came unto the land of the children of ‘Ammon to Chanun, to comfort him.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:3 @ And the princes of the children of ‘Ammon said unto Chanun, Doth David honor thy father in thy eyes, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee in order to search out, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:7 @ And they hired for themselves thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Ma’achah and his people: and they came and encamped before Medeba. And the children of ‘Ammon gathered themselves together out of their cities, and came to the battle.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:10 @ When now Joab saw that the front of battle was against him before and behind, he made a selection from all the chosen men of Israel, and arrayed himself against the Syrians.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:11 @ And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abshai his brother, and they arrayed themselves against the children of ‘Ammon.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:13 @ Be strong, and let us strengthen ourselves in behalf of our people, and in behalf of the cities of our God, and may the Lord do that which seemeth good in his eyes.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:15 @ And when the children of ‘Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, then did they also fly before Abshai his brother, and entered into the city. And Joab went back to Jerusalem.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:16 @ And when the Syrians saw that they were smitten before Israel, they sent messengers, and brought out the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the army of Hadar’ezer went before them.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:17 @ And when it was told to David, he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came up with them, and arrayed himself against them. So when David had arrayed himself against the Syrians battle, they fought with him.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:18 @ And the Syrians fled from before Israel: and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand men on foot, and Shophach the captain of the army he put to death.

lesserot@1Chronicles:19:19 @ And when the vassals of Hadar’ezer saw that they were smitten before Israel, they made peace with David, and served him: and the Syrians would not help the children of ‘Ammon any more.

lesserot@1Chronicles:20:2 @ And David took the crown of Malkam from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and thereon a precious stone; and it was set on the head of David: and the booty of the city he brought out in great abundance.

lesserot@1Chronicles:20:4 @ And it came to pass after this, that there arose a battle at Gezer with the Philistines: then smote Sibbechai the Chushathite Sippai, one of the children of the Rapha; and they were humbled.

lesserot@1Chronicles:20:5 @ And there was again a battle with the Philistines, when Elchanan the son of Yair smote Lachmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.

lesserot@1Chronicles:20:7 @ And he defied Israel; but Jonathan the son of Shim’a the brother of David smote him.

lesserot@1Chronicles:20:8 @ These were born unto the Rapha in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:1 @ And the Accuser stood up against Israel, and incited David to count Israel.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:2 @ And David said to Joab, and to the princes of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer–sheba’ even to Dan, and bring their number to me, that I may know it.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:3 @ Then said Joab, May the Lord add unto his people, how many soever they be, a hundred–fold more: are they not all, my lord the king, my lord’s servants? why then will my lord require this thing? why shall it be a cause of guiltiness for Israel?

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:4 @ Nevertheless the king’s word remained firm against Joab; and Joab went out, and moved about throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:5 @ And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto David: and there were all Israel a thousand times thousand and one hundred thousand men that drew the sword: and Judah were four hundred and seventy thousand men that drew the sword.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:7 @ And this thing was displeasing in the eyes of God, and he smote Israel.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:8 @ And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing; but now, I beseech thee, cause the iniquity of thy servant to pass away; for I have acted very foolishly.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:12 @ Whether there shall be three years famine; or three months, to be destroyed before thy adversaries, so that the sword of thy enemies overtake thee; or that during three days the sword of the Lord, even the pestilence, shall be in the land, and an angel of the Lord destroying throughout all the boundaries of Israel? And now reflect what word I shall bring back to him that hath sent me.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:13 @ And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall then into the hand of the Lord; for his mercies are very great; but let me not fall into the hand of man.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:14 @ So the Lord sent a pestilence in Israel, and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:15 @ And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it; but as he was destroying, the Lord looked on, and he bethought himself of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough: now stay thy hand. And the angel of the Lord was standing by the threshing–floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:16 @ And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord standing between the earth and the heavens, with his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem. Then fell David, with the elders wrapt in sackcloth, upon their faces.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:20 @ And when Ornan turned back, and saw the angel, then did he and his four sons with him hide themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:21 @ And as David came up to Ornan, Ornan looked up and saw David; and he went out of the threshing–floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:22 @ Then said David to Ornan, "Grant me the site of this threshing–floor, that I may build thereon an altar unto the Lord: for the full price shalt thou give it unto me, so that the plague may be stayed from the people."

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:23 @ And Ornan said unto David, Take it for thyself, and let my lord the king do what is good in his eyes: lo, I give the oxen for burnt–offerings, and the threshing–rollers for wood, and the wheat for the meat–offering; the whole do I give.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:24 @ And king David said to Ornan, No: but I will surely buy it at the full value; for I will not take what is thine for the Lord, so as to offer burnt–offerings without paying therefore.

lesserot@1Chronicles:21:27 @ And the Lord spoke to the angel, and he put back his sword into its sheath.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:1 @ And David said, This is the house of the Lord the God, and this is the altar for the burnt–offering for Israel.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:2 @ And David ordered to gather together the strangers that were in the land of Israel: and he appointed to be masons to hew cut stones to build the house of God.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:5 @ And David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built of the Lord must be exceedingly great, for fame and for glory throughout all the countries: I will therefore make preparation for it. So David made abundant preparation before his death.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:6 @ And he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build a house for the Lord the God of Israel.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:9 @ Behold, a son will be born to thee, he it is who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for Solomon shall be his name, and peace and quietness will I bestow on Israel in his days.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:10 @ He it is who shall build a house unto my name; and he shall be unto me as a son, and I will be unto him as a father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:12 @ Only may the Lord give thee intelligence and understanding, and give thee charge over Israel, so that thou mayest observe the law of the Lord thy God.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:13 @ Then wilt thou prosper, if thou observe to practise the statutes and the ordinances which the Lord commanded Moses concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; be not afraid, nor be thou dismayed.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:16 @ The gold, the silver, and the copper, and the iron cannot be numbered: arise, and be doing, and may the Lord be with thee.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:17 @ And David gave a charge to all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son,

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:18 @ Behold the Lord your God is with you; and he hath given you rest on every side; for he hath given up into my hand the inhabitants of the land, and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before his people.

lesserot@1Chronicles:22:19 @ Now direct your heart and your soul to seek the Lord your God; and arise, and build ye the sanctuary of the Lord the God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built unto the name of the Lord.

lesserot@1Chronicles:23:1 @ And when David was old and full of days, he made Solomon his son king over Israel.

lesserot@1Chronicles:23:2 @ And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.

lesserot@1Chronicles:23:5 @ And four thousand were gatekeepers: and four thousand those who praised the Lord with the instruments which I have made, to praise therewith.

lesserot@1Chronicles:23:6 @ And David divided them into divisions after the sons of Levi, after Gershon, Kehath, and Merari.

lesserot@1Chronicles:23:11 @ And Jachath was the chief, and Zizah the second; but Je’ush and Beri’ah had not many sons: therefore were they accounted as one family division in the numbering.

lesserot@1Chronicles:23:13 @ The sons of ‘Amram, Aaron and Moses: and Aaron was set apart, to sanctify him as most holy, he with his sons for ever, to burn incense before the Lord, to minister unto him, and to bless in his name for ever.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:36 @ And he connected himself with him to make ships to go to Tharshish: and they made ships in ‘Ezyon–geber.

lesserot@2Chronicles:20:37 @ Then prophesied Eli’ezer the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast connected thyself with Achazyahu, the Lord hath broken down thy works. And the ships were wrecked, so that they were not able to go to Tharshish.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:1 @ And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:2 @ And he had brothers the sons of Jehoshaphat: ‘Azaryah, and Jechiel, and Zecharyahu, and ‘Azaryahu, and Michael, and Shephatyahu, all these being sons of Jehoshaphat the king of Israel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:4 @ Now when Jehoram was risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he slew all his brothers with the sword, and also some of the princes of Israel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:6 @ And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as had done the house of Achab; for the daughter of Achab had he for wife: and he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:7 @ Yet would the Lord not destroy the house of David, on account of the covenant which he had made with David, and as he had said to give to him a government and to his sons at all times.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:8 @ In his days Edom revolted from under the power of Judah, and they appointed a king over themselves.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:9 @ Then did Jehoram go over with his princes, and all the chariots were with him; and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites who compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:10 @ Yet Edom revolted from under the power of Judah even until this day: then did Libnah revolt at the same time from under his power; because he had forsaken the Lord the God of his fathers.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:11 @ He also made high–places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go astray, and misled Judah.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:13 @ But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast caused Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go astray, as the house of Achab hath caused to go astray, and hast also slain thy brothers of thy father’s house, who were better than thyself:

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:15 @ And thou shalt be with great diseases by a disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels pass out by reason of the disease days upon days.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:16 @ And the Lord stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that are alongside of the Cushim:

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:17 @ And they went up against Judah, and made an incursion into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, and also his sons, and his wives; and there was not left unto him any son, save Jehoachaz, the youngest of his sons.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:18 @ And after all this did the Lord afflict him in his bowels with a disease which was incurable.

lesserot@2Chronicles:21:19 @ And it came to pass, from days to days, and when the time was expired, after two years, that his bowels passed out by reason of his disease: so he died of evil diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning for his fathers.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:1 @ And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Achazyahu his youngest son king in his stead; for the predatory band that was come with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So became Achazyahu, the son of Jehoram the king of Judah, king.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:2 @ Forty and two years old was Achazyahu when he became king, and one year did he reign in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Athalyahu the daughter of ‘Omri.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:3 @ Also he walked in the ways of the house of Achab; for his mother was his counsellor to act wickedly.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:4 @ And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord like the house of Achab; for these were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:5 @ He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Achab the king of Israel to war against Chazael the king of Syria at Ramoth–gil’ad: and the Syrians smote Joram.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:8 @ And it came to pass, when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Achab, that he found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brothers of Achazyahu, that ministered to Achazyahu, and he slew them.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:9 @ And he sought Achazyahu, and they caught him while he was hiding himself in Samaria, and they brought him to Jehu, and they slew him, and buried him; because they said, He is son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the Lord with all his heart.

lesserot@2Chronicles:22:11 @ But Yehoshab’ath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Achazyahu, and stole him away from the midst of the king’s sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse into the bed–chamber. So did Yehoshab’ath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Yehoyada’ the priest,––for she was the sister of Achazyahu,––hide him from ‘Athalyahu, so that she slew him not.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:1 @ And in the seventh year Yehoyada’ strengthened himself, and took the captains of the hundreds, ‘Azaryah the son of Jerocham and Yishma’el the son of Jehochanan, and ‘Azaryahu the son of ‘Obed, and Ma’asseyahu the son of ‘Adayahu, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, with him into a covenant.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:8 @ And the Levites and all Judah did in accordance with all that Yehoyada’ the priest had commanded, and they took every man his men that came in on the sabbath, with those that were to be relieved on the sabbath; for Yehoyada’ the priest had not dismissed the divisions.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:10 @ And he placed all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the temple, all round about the king,

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:11 @ Then did they bring forth the king’s son, and put upon him the crown, and the testimony, and they made him king. And Yehoyada’ and his sons anointed him, and said, Long live the king.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:12 @ And when ‘Athalyah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of the Lord.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:13 @ And she looked, and behold, the king stood upon his stand at the entrance, and the princes and the trumpets were around the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew on trumpets; also the singers leading with instruments of music in the songs of praise; and ‘Athalyah rent her clothes, and said, "Treason, treason."

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:17 @ And then came all the people into the house of Ba’al, and pulled it down, and his altars and his images did they break in pieces, and Mathhan the priest of Ba’al they slew before the altars.

lesserot@2Chronicles:23:18 @ And Yehoyada’ placed the supervision over the house of the Lord into the hand of the priests, the Levites, whom David had divided off over the house of the Lord, to offer the burnt–offerings of the Lord, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, after the manner of David.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:16 @ And they buried him in the city of David among the kings; because he had done a good thing in Israel, and toward God, and his house.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:18 @ And they forsook the house of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols: and there came wrath over Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:22 @ And king Joash did not remember the kindness which Yehoyada’ his father had shown to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The Lord will see, and require.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:24 @ Indeed with a small company of men did the army of Syria come; but the Lord delivered into their hand an army exceedingly numerous; because they had forsaken the Lord the God of their fathers. And on Joash they executed punishment.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:25 @ And when these were gone away from him––for they left him with great diseases––his own servants conspired against him because of the blood of the sons of Yehoyada’ the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.

lesserot@2Chronicles:24:27 @ Now concerning his sons, and the great prophecy concerning him, and the founding of the house of God, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amazyahu his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:5 @ And Amazyahu gathered Judah together, and stationed them after the family divisions, after the captains over the thousands, and after the captains over the hundreds, of all Judah and Benjamin; and he numbered them from twenty years old and upward, and found them three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go forth to the army, that could handle spear and shield.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:6 @ He hired also out of Israel one hundred thousand mighty men of valor for one hundred talents of silver.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:7 @ But a man of God came unto him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the Lord is not with Israel, all the children of Ephraim.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:8 @ But if thou wilt go, active strong for the battle: God will cause thee to stumble before the enemy; for there is power with God to help, and to cause to stumble.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:9 @ Then said Amazyahu to the man of God, But what is it to be done for the hundred talents which I have given to the band of Israel? And the man of God said, The Lord hath to give thee much more than this.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:19 @ Thou hast thought, Lo, thou hast smitten Edom; and thy heart hath lifted thee up to acquire much glory: now stay in thy house; why wilt thou meddle with misfortune, that thou mayest fall, thou, and Judah with thee?

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:22 @ And Judah was defeated before Israel, and they fled every man to his tents.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:23 @ And Joash the king of Israel caught Amazyahu the king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoachaz, at Beth–shemesh; and he brought him to Jerusalem, and made a breach in the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner–gate, four hundred cubits.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:25 @ And Amazyahu the son of Joash the king of Judah lived after the death of Joash the son of Jehoachaz the king of Israel fifteen years.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:26 @ And the rest of the acts of Amazyahu the first and the last, behold, they are fully written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:27 @ Now from the time that Amazyahu departed from following the Lord, they raised a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: wherefore he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.

lesserot@2Chronicles:25:28 @ And they carried him on horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:1 @ And all the people of Judah took ‘Uzziyahu, who was then sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:2 @ He it was that built Eloth, and brought it back to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:5 @ And he was to seek God in the days of Zecharyahu, who had understanding in the visions of God; and during the time that he sought the Lord, God caused him to prosper.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:6 @ And he went forth and made war against the Philistines, and he broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in Ashdod, and among the Philistines.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:7 @ And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur–ba’al, and the Me’unim.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:8 @ And the ‘Ammonites gave presents to ‘Uzziyahu: and his name extended even to the entrance of Egypt; for he became exceedingly strong.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:11 @ Moreover ‘Uzziyah had an army of fighting men, that went out to the host by bands, according to the number of those mustered of them through the hand of Je’iel the scribe and Ma’asseyahu the overseer, under the supervision of Chananyahu, one of the king’s captains.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:12 @ The whole number of the chiefs of the family divisions of the mighty men of valor was two thousand and six hundred.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:13 @ And under their supervision was an efficient army, three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:15 @ And he made in Jerusalem artificial contrivances, contrived by a skilful man, to be on the towers and upon the ramparts, to shoot off arrows and great stones. And his name extended ever so far abroad; for he was marvelously assisted, till he became strong.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:16 @ But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction; and he became unfaithful against the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the Lord to burn incense upon the altar of incense.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:18 @ And they stood forward against king ‘Uzziyahu, and they said unto him, It is not for thee, O ‘Uzziyahu, to burn incense unto the Lord, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; and it will not be for thy honor from the Lord God.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:19 @ But ‘Uzziyahu became wroth, and in his hand was a censer to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of the Lord, above the altar of the incense.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:20 @ And when ‘Azaryahu the chief priest, with all the priests, turned about toward him, behold, he was leprous on his forehead, and they hurried him away from there: yea, he also made haste to go out, because the Lord had afflicted him.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:21 @ And king ‘Uzziyahu was a leper until the day of his death, and dwelt in the leper–house, as a leper; for he was excluded from the house of the Lord: and Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judged the people of the land.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:22 @ And the rest of the acts of ‘Uzziyahu, the first and the last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amos write.

lesserot@2Chronicles:26:23 @ And ‘Uzziyahu slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial–field which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@2Chronicles:27:1 @ Twenty and five years old was Jotham when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Yerushah, the daughter of Zadok.

lesserot@2Chronicles:27:2 @ And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father ‘Uzziyahu had done: only he entered not into the temple of the Lord. But the people acted still corruptly.

lesserot@2Chronicles:27:5 @ And he likewise fought with the king of the sons of ‘Ammon, and prevailed against them. And the children of ‘Ammon gave him in that same year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand kors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of ‘Ammon pay unto him again, both in the second year, and in the third.

lesserot@Ezra:3:4 @ And they celebrated the feast of tabernacles, as it is written, and the daily burnt–offerings by number, according to the prescribed manner, the offering of every day on its day;

lesserot@Ezra:3:9 @ Then stood forward Jeshua’ with his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, as one man, to superintend the workmen in the house of God; the sons of Chenadad, their sons and their brethren the Levites.

lesserot@Ezra:3:10 @ And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the Lord, they placed the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Assaph with cymbals, to praise the Lord, after the manner of David the king of Israel.

lesserot@Ezra:3:11 @ And they sang responsively in praise and thanksgiving unto the Lord; because he is good, for unto everlasting endureth his kindness toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, while praising the Lord; because the foundation of the house of the Lord had been laid.

lesserot@Ezra:3:12 @ But many of the priests and Levites and chiefs of the divisions, the aged, who had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice, while many, shouting for joy, raised aloud their voice:

lesserot@Ezra:3:13 @ So that the people could not distinguish the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people; for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard ever so far off.

lesserot@Ezra:4:1 @ Now when the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the children of the exile were building the temple unto the Lord the God of Israel:

lesserot@Ezra:4:2 @ Then came they near to Zerubbabel, and to the chiefs of the divisions, and said unto them, Let us build with you; for like you will we seek your God; and unto him do we sacrifice since the days of Essar–chaddon the king of Asshur, who hath brought us up hither.

lesserot@Ezra:4:3 @ But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua’, and the rest of the of the divisions of Israel, said unto them, It is not obligatory on you and on us to build a house unto our God; but we ourselves together must build unto the Lord the God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.

lesserot@Ezra:4:6 @ And in the reign of Achashverosh, in the beginning of his reign they wrote an accusation against the inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem.

lesserot@Ezra:4:7 @ And in the days of Artaxerxes wrote Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel, and the rest of their companions, unto Artaxerxes the king of Persia: and the writing of the letter was written in Aramic, and interpreted in Aramic.

lesserot@Ezra:4:13 @ Be it now known unto the king, that, if this city be rebuilt, and the walls be completed, they will not give tax, tribute, and toll, and the royal revenues will suffer damage.

lesserot@Ezra:4:14 @ Now because we eat the salt of the palace, and it is not proper for us to see the king’s dishonor, therefore have we sent and let the king know this:

lesserot@Ezra:4:15 @ That search may be made in the book of the memorable events of thy fathers, and thou wilt find in the book of the memorable events, and know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful unto kings and provinces, and that they have practised sedition within the same from the most ancient time; for which cause this city was destroyed.

lesserot@Ezra:4:16 @ We let the king know that, if this city be rebuilt, and its walls be completed, by this means thou wilt have no more any portion on this side of the river.

lesserot@Ezra:4:19 @ And an order was given by me, and search was made, and it was found that this city from the most ancient time hath lifted itself up against kings, and that rebellion and sedition have been practised therein.

lesserot@Ezra:4:21 @ Now give ye the order to stop these men, and this city shall not be built, until the order be given from me.

lesserot@Ezra:4:22 @ Take heed now that ye commit no error in this: that not any injury may grow to the damage of the kings.

lesserot@Ezra:4:24 @ Then was stopped the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem, and it remained interrupted until the second year of the reign of Darius the king of Persia.

lesserot@Ezra:5:1 @ Then prophesied Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah the son of ‘Iddo, the prophets, unto the Jews that were in Judah and Jerusalem, in the name of the God of Israel, concerning them.

lesserot@Ezra:5:2 @ Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel, and Jeshua’ the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which is in Jerusalem; and with them were the prophets of God helping them.

lesserot@Ezra:5:3 @ At this same time came to them Thathnai, the governor on this side of the river, and Shethar–bozenai, and their companions, and thus they said unto them, "Who hath given you an order to build this house, and to complete these walls?"

lesserot@Ezra:5:4 @ Then said we unto them after this manner, what are the names of the men that erect this building.

lesserot@Ezra:5:5 @ But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, so that they did not stop them, till the matter came to Darius; and they then returned an answer by letter concerning this.

lesserot@Ezra:5:6 @ A copy of the letter which Thathnai, the governor on this side of the river, and Shethar–bozenai, and his companions, the Apharsachites, who were on this side of the river, sent unto king Darius.

lesserot@Ezra:5:9 @ Then asked we these elders, and after this manner said we unto them, Who hath given you the order to build this house, and to complete these walls?

lesserot@Ezra:5:11 @ And in this manner did they return us answer, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we build the house that was built before this many years, and a great king of Israel built and completed it.

lesserot@Ezra:5:12 @ But since our fathers had provoked the God of heaven unto wrath, he gave them up into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, the Chaldean, and he destroyed this house, and carried the people as exiles into Babylon.

lesserot@Ezra:5:13 @ However, in the first year of Cyrus the king of Babylon, king Cyrus gave an order to build this house of God.

lesserot@Ezra:5:15 @ And he said unto him, Take these vessels, go, carry them into the temple which is in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be built on its site.

lesserot@Ezra:5:16 @ Then came this same Sheshbazzar, laid the foundation of the house of God which is in Jerusalem; and from that time even until now they have been building it, but it is not yet finished.

lesserot@Ezra:5:17 @ And now, if it seem good to the king, let search be made in the king’s treasure–house, which is there at Babylon, whether it be so, that an order was given by king Cyrus to build this house of God at Jerusalem, and let the king send to us his pleasure concerning this matter.

lesserot@Ezra:6:2 @ And there was found at Achmetha, in the castle that is in the province of Media, a roll, and therein was thus written: A record.

lesserot@Ezra:6:5 @ And also let the golden and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took away out of the temple which is in Jerusalem, and brought unto Babylon, be restored, and brought back unto the temple which is in Jerusalem, every one to its place, and let them be put in the house of God.

lesserot@Ezra:6:7 @ Let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God on its site.

lesserot@Ezra:6:8 @ And by me is the order given what ye shall do to the elders of these Jews for the building of this house of God, that out of the king’s property, arising out of the tax beyond the river, the expenses shall forthwith be given unto these men, that they be not hindered.

lesserot@Ezra:6:10 @ That they may offer sacrifices of sweet savors unto the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king and of his sons.

lesserot@Ezra:6:11 @ Also is by me the order given, that if any man should alter this command, timber shall be pulled down from his house, and being set up, he shall be hanged thereon; and his house shall be made a dunghill for this.

lesserot@Ezra:6:12 @ And may the God that causeth his name to dwell there cast down every king and people that will stretch forth their hand to alter, to destroy this house of God which is in Jerusalem. I Darius have given the order: let it be done speedily.

lesserot@Ezra:6:13 @ Then did Thathnai the, governor on this aide of the river, Shethar–bozenai, and their companions, in accordance with what king Darius had sent, act in this manner speedily.

lesserot@Ezra:6:14 @ And the elders of the Jews built, and they prospered, through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah the son of ‘Iddo.

lesserot@Ezra:6:22 @ And they celebrated the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy; for the Lord had made them joyful, and had turned the heart of the king of Asshur toward them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.

lesserot@Ezra:7:5 @ The son of Abishua’, the son of Phinehas, the son of Elazar, the son of Aaron the chief priest:

lesserot@Ezra:7:6 @ This ‘Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a practised expounder in the law of Moses, which the Lord the God of Israel hath given; and the king gave him, according to the hand of the Lord his God upon him, all his request.

lesserot@Ezra:7:23 @ Whatsoever is ordered by the God of heaven shall be carefully done for the house of the God of heaven; for why should there be wrath against the kingdom of the king and his sons?

lesserot@Ezra:7:24 @ And to you make we it known, that on any of the priests and Levites, singers, gate–keepers, and temple–servants, or ministers of this house of God, no one shall be empowered to impose any tax, tribute, or toll.

lesserot@Ezra:7:25 @ And thou, ‘Ezra, according to the wisdom of thy God which is in thy hand, appoint judges and magistrates, who are to judge all the people that are beyond the river, all such as know the laws of thy God; and make ye them known to those that know them not.

lesserot@Ezra:7:26 @ And if there be any one who will not execute the law of thy God, and the law of the king, let justice be speedily executed upon him, whether it be unto death or to banishment, or to a fine on goods, or to imprisonment.

lesserot@Ezra:7:28 @ And who hath extended kindness unto me before the king and his counsellors, and before all the mighty princes of the king: and I strengthened myself according to the hand of the Lord my God upon me, and I gathered together out of Israel principal men to go up with me.

lesserot@Ezra:8:1 @ Now these are the chiefs of their divisions, and this is the genealogy of those that went up with me, in the reign of king Artaxerxes, from Babylon.

lesserot@Ezra:8:17 @ And I sent them with a charge unto Iddo the chief at the place Cassiphia, and I laid the words in their mouth to speak unto Iddo, and to his brother, who were appointed at the place Cassiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.

lesserot@Ezra:8:18 @ And they brought unto us according to the good hand of our God upon us a man of intelligence, of the sons of Machli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel, namely, Sherebyah, with his sons and his brothers, eighteen;

lesserot@Ezra:8:19 @ And Chashabyah, and with him Jesha’yah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty.

lesserot@Ezra:8:22 @ For I was ashamed to ask of the king an army and horsemen to assist us against an enemy on the way; because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all those that seek him for good; but his power and his wrath are against all those that forsake him.

lesserot@Ezra:8:23 @ So we fasted and besought our God for this, and he suffered himself to be entreated by us.

lesserot@Ezra:8:25 @ And I weighed out unto them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, the offering for the house of our God, which the king, and his counsellors, and his princes, and all Israel there present, had offered.

lesserot@Ezra:8:27 @ Also twenty cups of gold, of a thousand drachms; and two vessels of fine polished copper, valuable as gold.

lesserot@Ezra:8:29 @ Watch ye, and guard them, until ye weigh them out before the chiefs of the priests and the Levites, and the chiefs of the divisions of Israel, at Jerusalem, into the chambers of the house of the Lord.

lesserot@Ezra:8:35 @ Those that came out of the captivity, the children of the exile, offered burnt–offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven sheep, twelve he–goats for a sin–offering: all as burnt–offerings unto the Lord.

lesserot@Ezra:8:36 @ And they delivered the king’s commands unto the king’s lieutenants, and to the governors on this side of the river; and these endowed the people, and the house of God.

lesserot@Ezra:9:1 @ Now when these things were accomplished, the princes approached me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the nations of the lands, notwithstanding their abominations, from the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the ‘Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Emorites;

lesserot@Ezra:9:2 @ For they have taken of their daughters for themselves and for their sons; and the holy seed have mingled themselves with the nations of these lands; and the hand of the princes and rulers hath been the first in this trespass.

lesserot@Ezra:9:3 @ And when I heard this thing, I rent my garment and my mantle, and I plucked out some of the hair of my head and of my beard, and sat down astounded.

lesserot@Ezra:9:4 @ And then assembled themselves unto me every one that trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of the trespass of the exiles; and I sat astounded until the evening sacrifice.

lesserot@Ezra:9:6 @ And I said, O my God, I am ashamed and confounded to lift up my face unto thee, my God! for our iniquities are increased above our head, and our guiltiness is grown up as far as the heavens.

lesserot@Ezra:9:7 @ From the days of our fathers have we been in a great guiltiness even until this day; and through our iniquities have we been delivered, we, our kings, and our priests, into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and to a spoil, and to the shame of face, as it is this day.

lesserot@Ezra:9:8 @ And now for a little moment hath grace been extended from the Lord our God, to preserve us a remnant to escape, and to give us a stake in his holy place, that our God might enlighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage.

lesserot@Ezra:9:10 @ And now what shall we say, O our God, after this? for we have forsaken thy commandments,

lesserot@Ezra:9:11 @ Which thou hast commanded through means of thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to take possession thereof, is a land defiled through the defilement of the nations of the lands, through their abominations, with which they have filled it from one end to another through their uncleanness.

lesserot@Ezra:9:13 @ And after all that is come over us for our evil deeds, and for our great guiltiness, seeing that thou our God hast spared us less than our iniquities, and hast given us such deliverance as this:

lesserot@Ezra:9:15 @ O Lord, God of Israel, thou art righteous; for we have been left a remnant that hath escaped, as it is this day; behold, we are before thee in our guiltiness; for there is no standing before thee because of this.

lesserot@Ezra:10:1 @ Now when ‘Ezra prayed, and when he made his confession, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there gathered themselves unto him out of Israel a very large assembly of men and women and children; for the people wept exceedingly much.

lesserot@Ezra:10:2 @ Thereupon commenced Shechanyah the son of Jechiel, of the sons of ‘Elam, and said unto ‘Ezra, we have indeed trespassed against our God, and have brought home strange wives of the nations of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing.

lesserot@Ezra:10:4 @ Arise; for this matter is obligatory upon thee; and we will be with thee: be strong, and do it.

lesserot@Ezra:10:5 @ Then arose ‘Ezra, and caused the princes of the priests, the Levites, and of all Israel, to swear to do according to this word. And they swore.

lesserot@Ezra:10:8 @ And that whosoever should not come within three days, according to the resolve of the princes and the elders, all his substance should be devoted, and himself separated from the congregation of the exiles.

lesserot@Ezra:10:9 @ Then were all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered together unto Jerusalem within three days: it was in the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month; and all the people sat in the open place before the house of God, trembling because of this matter, and by reason of the showers of rain.

lesserot@Ezra:10:10 @ And ‘Ezra the priest rose up, and said unto them, Ye have acted unfaithfully, and have brought home strange wives, to increase yet more the guiltiness of Israel.

lesserot@Ezra:10:11 @ Now therefore make confession unto the Lord the God of your fathers, and do his will; and separate yourselves from the nations of the earth, and from the strange wives.

lesserot@Ezra:10:12 @ Then answered all the assembly and said with a loud voice, So be it: according to thy word it is our duty to do.

lesserot@Ezra:10:13 @ But the people are many, and it is the rainy season, and we have not the strength to remain in the street, nor is this a work for one day or for two days; for we are many that have transgressed in this matter.

lesserot@Ezra:10:14 @ Let however our princes stand forward for all the congregation, and let all those in our cities who have brought home strange wives come at appointed times, and with them the elders of each and every city, and its judges, until the fierce wrath of our God be turned away from us for this whole matter.

lesserot@Ezra:10:15 @ Only Jonathan the son of ‘Assahel and Jachzeyah the son of Thikvah withstood this: and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite assisted them.

lesserot@Ezra:10:16 @ And the children of the exile did so. And then were set apart ‘Ezra the priest, certain chiefs of the divisions, for their family divisions, and all of them by their names; and they sat down on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.

lesserot@Nehemiah:2:6 @ And the king said unto me, while the queen was sitting beside him, When is thy journey to be undertaken? and when wilt thou return? So it pleased the king to let me go; and I indicated to him a time.

lesserot@Nehemiah:2:10 @ When Sanballat the Choronite, and Tobiyah the servant, the ‘Ammonite, heard of it, it displeased them exceedingly, that there was come a man to seek the welfare of the children of Israel.

lesserot@Nehemiah:2:17 @ Then said I unto them, Ye see the misery in which we are, how Jerusalem lieth in ruins, and its gates are burnt with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no more be for a reproach.

lesserot@Nehemiah:2:18 @ And I told them of the hand of my God, which was good upon me, as also the king’s words which he had spoken unto me. And they said, We will rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for the good work.

lesserot@Nehemiah:3:27 @ Next to them repaired the Teko’ites another division from opposite the great tower that standeth out, and as far as the wall of the hill fort.

lesserot@Nehemiah:3:28 @ From above the horse–gate repaired the priests, every one opposite to his house.

lesserot@Nehemiah:3:30 @ Next to him repaired Chananyah the son of Shelemyah, and Chanun the sixth son of Zalaph another division. Next to him repaired Meshullam the son of Berechyah opposite to his chamber.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:5 @ Yet now our flesh is like the flesh of our brethren, our children are like their children: and, lo, we must force our sons and our daughters to become servants, and some of our daughters are forced, and our hand is powerless; and our fields and our vineyards belong to others.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:6 @ And it displeased me greatly when I heard their complaint and these words.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:7 @ Then did I consult with my heart, and I upbraided the nobles, and the rulers, and said unto them, "Ye exact usury, every one of his brother!" And I brought together a great assembly against them.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:9 @ Then said I, The thing is not good which ye are doing: ought ye not to walk in the fear of our God, because of the taunting of the nations, our enemies?

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:10 @ And also I, my brothers, and my young men, have lent them money and corn: I pray you, let us relinquish this loan.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:11 @ Give back to them, I pray you, even this day, their fields, their vineyards, their oliveyards, and their houses, also the hundredth part of the money, and of the corn, the wine, and the oil, that ye have lent them.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:12 @ Then said they, We will give back, and of them will we require nothing: so will we do as thou sayest. Then I called the priests, and made them swear, that they would do in accordance with this promise.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:13 @ Also my lap did I shake out, and said, So may God shake out every man that performeth not this promise, from his house and of his toil–gotten wealth, and so let him remain shaken out, and empty. And all the assembly said, Amen, and they praised the Lord. And the people did according to this promise.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:16 @ And in the work of this wall also did I labor actively; and we bought not any fields; and all my young men were assembled there by the work.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:18 @ And that which was prepared for one day was one ox and six choice sheep; also birds were prepared for me, and once in ten days all sorts of wine in abundance: yet with all this I required not the food of the governor; because the service lay heavily upon this people.

lesserot@Nehemiah:5:19 @ Remember for me, my God, for good, all that I have done for this people.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:2 @ That Sanballat and Geshem sent unto me, saying, Come, let us meet together in Kephirim, in the plain of Ono. But they were thinking of doing me mischief.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:4 @ And they sent unto me after this manner four times; and I answered them after the same manner.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:5 @ Then sent Sanballat unto me in like manner the fifth time his young man with an open letter in his hand:

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:7 @ And that thou hast also set up prophets to proclaim concerning thee at Jerusalem, saying, He is king in Judah: and now there may be reported to the king something like these words. Now therefore come, and let us take counsel together.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:9 @ For they all wished to make us afraid, thinking, Their hands will be withdrawn from the work, so that it will not be done. Now therefore, strengthen my hands.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:11 @ And I said, Should a man like me flee? and who is there that is like me, that would go into the temple and live? I will not go in.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:12 @ And I perceived that, lo, God had not sent him; but that he pronounced this prophecy over me, because Tobiyah and Sanballat had hired him.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:14 @ Think, O my God, of Tobiyah and Sanballat according to these their works, and also of No’adyah the prophetess, and the rest of the prophets, who wished to make me afraid.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:15 @ And so was the wall finished on the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty and two days.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:16 @ And it came to pass, when our enemies heard this, and all the nations that were about us saw it, that they sank greatly in their own eyes; and they perceived that by the aid of our God had this work been wrought.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:18 @ For many in Judah were sworn friends unto him; because he was the son–in–law of Shechanyah the son of Arach, and Jehochanan his son had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Bercehyah.

lesserot@Nehemiah:6:19 @ Also his good deeds were they reporting before me, and my words they used to carry out to him: also Tobiyah sent letters to make me afraid.

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:3 @ And I said unto them, The gates of Jerusalem must not be opened until the sun be hot; and while ye stand by, let them shut the doors, and do ye bar them; and station watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one opposite to his house.

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:5 @ Then did my God put it into my heart, and I assembled together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might give in their genealogy; and I found a register of the genealogy of those who were come up at the first, and I found written therein:

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:6 @ These arc the children of the province, that came up out of the captivity of the exiles, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried into exile, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his own city;

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:7 @ Who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua’, Nehemiah, ‘Azaryah, Ra’amyah, Nachamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Misspereth, Bigvai, Nechum, Ba’anah. The number of the men of the people of Israel was:

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:52 @ The children of Bessai, the children of Me’unim, the children of Nephishessim,

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:55 @ The children of Barkoss, the children of Sissera, the children of Thamach,

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:61 @ And these were they who came up from Thel–melach, Thelcharsha, Kerub, Addon, and Immer, but they could not tell their family division and their descent, whether they were of Israel.

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:64 @ These sought for their family register, but it was not found: wherefore they were excluded, as unfit, from the priesthood.

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:70 @ And a portion of the chiefs of the divisions gave unto the work. The Thirshatha gave to the treasure, of gold one thousand drachms, fifty bowls, five hundred and thirty coats for the priests.

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:71 @ And some of the chiefs of the divisions gave to the treasury of the work, of gold twenty thousand drachms, and of silver two thousand and two hundred manehs.

lesserot@Nehemiah:7:73 @ So the priests, and the Levites, and the gatekeepers, and the singers, and some of the people, and the temple–servants, and all Israel, dwelt in their cities: and so came round the seventh month, while the children of Israel were in their cities.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:1 @ And all the people gathered themselves together as one man into the open place which is before the water–gate; and they said unto ‘Ezra the expounder that he should bring forward the book of the law of Moses, which the Lord commanded to Israel.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:2 @ Then did ‘Ezra the priest bring forward the law before the congregation both of men and women, and every one that had understanding to listen, on the first day of the seventh month;

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:3 @ And he read therein in the open place which is before the water–gate from the first daylight until midday, before the men and the women, and those that could understand: and the ears of all the people were directed unto the book of the law.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:4 @ And ‘Ezra the expounder stood upon an elevated stand of wood, which they had made for the purpose: and beside him stood Matthithyah, and Shema’, and ‘Anayah, and Uriyah, and Chilkiyah, and Ma’asseyah, on his right hand; and on his left, Pedayah, and Mishael, and Malkiyah, and Chashum, and Chashbadanah, Zechariah, Meshullam.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:8 @ So they read in the book, in the law of God distinctly, and exhibiting the sense: so that understood what was read.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:9 @ Then said Nehemiah, that is the Thirshatha, and ‘Ezra the priest the expounder, and the Levites that explained to the people, unto all the people, This day is holy unto the Lord your God: mourn not, and weep not. For all the people were weeping, when they heard the words of the law.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:10 @ Then said he unto them, Go your way, eat fat things, and drink sweet drinks, and send portions unto him for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy unto our Lord: and do not grieve yourselves; but let the joy of the Lord be your stronghold.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:11 @ So the Levites quieted all the people, saying, Be still! for the day is holy: and do not grieve yourselves.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:13 @ And on the second day there gathered themselves together the chiefs of the divisions of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, unto ‘Ezra the expounder, to obtain again intelligence of the words of the law.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:14 @ And they found written in the law that the Lord had commanded through means of Moses, that the children of Israel should dwell in booths during the feast in the seventh month.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:15 @ And that they should publish and have proclamation made throughout all their cities, and through Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the mountain and fetch olive–leaves, and oleaster–leaves, and myrtle–leaves, and palm–leaves, and leaves of the three–leaved myrtle, to make booths, as it is written.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:16 @ And the people went forth, and brought them; and they made themselves booths, every one upon his roof, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the open place by the water–gate, and in the open place by the gate of Ephraim.

lesserot@Nehemiah:8:17 @ And all the congregation that were returned out of the captivity made booths, and dwelt in the booths; for since the days of Jeshua’ the son of Nun until that day the children of Israel had not done so. And there was very great joy.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:1 @ And on the twenty and fourth day of this month were the children of Israel assembled with fasting, and in sackclothes, and with earth upon them.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:2 @ And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all children of the strangers: and they stood forward and made confession for their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:5 @ Then said the Levites, Jeshua’, and Kadmiel, Bani, Chashabneyah, Sherebyah, Hodiyah, Shebanyah, and Pethachyah, Arise! bless ye the Lord your God from eternity to eternity. And let men bless thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:6 @ Thou indeed art the Eternal One alone: It is thou that hast made the heavens with all their host, the earth, and all that is upon her, the seas, and all that is in them, and thou givest life to them all; and the host of the heavens bow down before thee.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:7 @ Thou art indeed the Lord the God, who didst choose Abram, and bring him forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans, and change his name to Abraham;

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:8 @ And thou didst find his heart faithful before thee: and thou madest with him the covenant to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Emorites, and the Perizittes, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashite––to give it to his seed: and thou hast performed thy words; for thou art righteous.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:10 @ And thou didst display signs and wonders on Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they had dealt presumptuously against them; and thou didst make thyself a name, as it is this day.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:18 @ Yea, although they had made for themselves a molten calf, and said, ‘This is thy god that hath brought thee up out of Egypt,’ and had practised great provocations:

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:25 @ And they captured fortified cities, and a fat soil; and they took possession of houses full of all good things, hewn–out wells, vineyards, and olive–yards, and fruit trees in abundance; and they ate, and were satisfied, and became fat, and delighted themselves in thy great goodness.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:26 @ Then became they disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their back, and they slew thy prophets who had warned them to bring them back unto thee, and they practised great provocations.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:27 @ Thereupon thou gavest them up into the hand of their adversaries, who oppressed them: and in the time of their distress they used to cry unto thee, and thou ever heardest them from heaven; and according to thy abundant mercies thou wast wont to give them helpers, who helped them out of the hand of their adversaries.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:29 @ And thou gavest them warning to bring them back unto thy law: yet they acted presumptuously, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, and sinned against thy ordinances, which a man is to do that he may live through them: and they rendered their shoulder rebellious, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:32 @ And now, our God, the great, the mighty, and the terrible God, who keepest the covenant and kindness, let not be esteemed as little before thee all the hardship that hath befallen us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our fathers, and on all thy people, from the days of the kings of Assyria until this day.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:33 @ Nevertheless thou art righteous in all that is come over us; for thou hast acted truth, but we have done wickedly.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:34 @ Also our kings, our priests, and our fathers have not executed thy law, and have not listened unto thy commandments and thy testimonies, wherewith thou didst warn them.

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:36 @ Behold, we are this day servants: and as regardeth the land that thou gavest unto our fathers to eat its fruit and its good things, behold, we are servants in it;

lesserot@Nehemiah:9:37 @ And it yieldeth its products in abundance for the kings whom thou hast set over us because of our sins; also over our bodies have they dominion, and over our cattle at their pleasure, and we are in great distress.

lesserot@Nehemiah:11:3 @ Now these are the chiefs of the province that dwelt in Jerusalem; but in the cities of Judah dwelt every one in his possession in their cities, Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the temple–servants, and the children of Solomon’s servants.

lesserot@Nehemiah:12:45 @ And kept the charge of their God, and the charge of the purification, and as singers and gatekeepers, according to the command of David, of Solomon his son.

lesserot@Nehemiah:12:46 @ For in the days of David and Assaph of old there were chiefs of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving unto God.

lesserot@Nehemiah:12:47 @ And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the gatekeeper, what was required for every day on its day; and they sanctified things for the Levites: and the Levites sanctified for the children of Aaron.

lesserot@Nehemiah:13:2 @ Because they had not met the children of Israel with bread and with water, but had hired Bil’am against them, that he should curse them; although our God had changed the curse into a blessing.

lesserot@Nehemiah:13:3 @ And it tame to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated all the alien mixture from Israel.

lesserot@Nehemiah:13:4 @ And before this, Elyashib the priest, appointed over the chambers of the house of our God, and a near unto Tobiyah,

lesserot@Nehemiah:13:13 @ And I appointed receivers over the treasuries, Shelemyah the priest and Zadok the scribe, and Pedayah of the Levites; and with them acted Chanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Matthanyah; for they were accounted as faithful, and it was their duty to make a distribution among their brethren.

lesserot@Nehemiah:13:16 @ Also the men of Tyre dwelt therein brought fish and all kinds of wares, and sold on the sabbath unto the children of Judah and in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Esther:4:7 @ And Mordecai told him all that had happened unto him, and of the fixed sum of money which Haman had promised to weigh out into the treasuries of the king for the Jews, to destroy them.

lesserot@Esther:4:11 @ All the king’s servants, and the people of the king’s provinces, do know, that every one, whether man or woman, who should come unto the king into the inner court, who is not called, there is but one law for him, to put him to death, except the one to whom the king should hold out the golden sceptre, for he will be suffered to live; but I have not been called to come in unto the king these thirty days.

lesserot@Esther:4:13 @ Then said Mordecai to bring this answer back to Esther, Imagine not in thy soul to be able to escape in the king’s house out of all the Jews.

lesserot@Esther:4:14 @ For if thou do indeed maintain silence at this time, enlargement and deliverance will arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father’s house will perish: and who knoweth whether thou hast not for a time like this attained to the royal dignity?

lesserot@Esther:4:15 @ Then said Esther to bring this answer back to Mordecai,

lesserot@Esther:4:16 @ Go, assemble together all the Jews who are now present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, so that ye neither eat nor drink three days, either night or day; also I myself with my maidens will fast in like manner; and then will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law; and if I then perish, I perish.

lesserot@Esther:5:1 @ And it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel, and placed herself in the inner court of the king’s house, opposite the king’s apartment; and the king was sitting upon his royal throne in the royal apartment, opposite to the entrance of the house.

lesserot@Esther:5:2 @ And it happened, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained grace in his eyes; and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand; and Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.

lesserot@Esther:5:3 @ Then said the king unto her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what is thy request? if it be equal to half of the kingdom it shall still be given thee.

lesserot@Esther:5:4 @ And Esther said, If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet which I have prepared for him.

lesserot@Esther:5:6 @ And the king said unto Esther at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? even if it be equal to half of the kingdom, it shall still be done.

lesserot@Esther:5:9 @ And Haman went forth on that day joyful and with a glad heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king’s gate, who did not rise up, nor move out of the way for him, then was Haman filled against Mordecai with fury.

lesserot@Esther:5:10 @ Nevertheless Haman refrained himself, and went to his house: he then sent and had his friends brought in with Zeresh his wife.

lesserot@Esther:5:11 @ And Haman recounted to them the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the king had made him great, and how he had advanced him above the princes and the servants of the king.

lesserot@Esther:5:13 @ Yet all this profiteth me nothing, every time that I see Mordecai the Jew sitting in the king’s gate.

lesserot@Esther:5:14 @ Then said unto him Zeresh his wife with all his friends, Let them make a gallows of fifty cubits high, and in the mourning speak unto the king that they may hang Mordecai thereon; and then go thou in with the king unto the banquet joyfully. And the thing pleased Haman; and he had the gallows made.

lesserot@Esther:6:3 @ And the king said, What honor and distinction have been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s young men, his servants, There hath nothing been done with him.

lesserot@Esther:6:4 @ And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outer court of the king’s house, to say unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows which he had prepared for him.

lesserot@Esther:6:5 @ And the king’s young men said unto him, Behold, Haman is standing in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.

lesserot@Esther:6:6 @ So Haman came in; and the king said unto him, What shall be done with the man whom the king desireth to honor? And Haman said in his heart, To whom would the king desire to do honor more than to myself?

lesserot@Esther:6:8 @ Let them bring a royal apparel which the king hath worn, and a horse on which the king hath ridden, and let there be placed a royal crown on his head.

lesserot@Esther:6:12 @ And Mordecai thereupon returned to the king’s gate; but Haman hastened to his house, mourning, and having his head covered.

lesserot@Esther:6:13 @ And Haman related to Zeresh his wife and to all his friends all that had befallen him: then said unto him his wise men and Zeresh his wife, If Mordecai, before whom thou hast begun to fall, be of the seed of the Jews, thou wilt not prevail against him, but thou wilt surely fall before him.

lesserot@Esther:7:2 @ And the king said unto Esther also on the second day at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? even if it be equal to half the kingdom, it shall still be done.

lesserot@Esther:7:5 @ Then spoke king Achashverosh and said unto Esther the queen, Who is this, and where is he, whose heart hath emboldened him to do so?

lesserot@Esther:7:6 @ And Esther said, An adversary, and inimical man, this wicked Haman. Then became Haman terrified before the king and the queen.

lesserot@Esther:7:7 @ And the king arose in his fury from the banquet of wine, and went into the palace–garden: and Haman remained behind to make request for his life of Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil fully determined.

lesserot@Esther:7:9 @ Then said Charbonah, one of the chamberlains, before the king, Behold, there is also the gallows, which Haman hath had made for Mordecai, who hath spoken well for the king, standing in the house of Haman, fifty cubits high. And the king said, Hang him thereon.

lesserot@Esther:8:2 @ And the king took off his signet–ring which he had taken away from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai: and Esther appointed Mordecai over the house of Haman.

lesserot@Esther:8:3 @ And Esther spoke again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and wept, and besought him to do away the evil of Haman the Agagite, and his device which he had devised against the Jews.

lesserot@Esther:8:5 @ And she said, If it be pleasing to the king, and if I have found grace before him, and the thing seem proper before the king, and I be pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to recall the letters, the device of Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he hath written to exterminate the Jews who are in all the provinces of the king.

lesserot@Esther:8:6 @ For how could I endure to look on the evil that is to befall my people? and how could I endure to look on the extermination of my kindred?

lesserot@Esther:8:7 @ Then said king Achashverosh unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, the house of Haman have I given to Esther, and him have they hanged on the gallows, because he had stretched out his hand against the Jews.

lesserot@Esther:8:8 @ But ye write yourselves concerning the Jews, as it may be good in your eyes, in the king’s name, and seal it with the king’s signet–ring; for a writing which is written in the king’s name, and sealed with the king’s signet–ring, cannot be recalled.

lesserot@Esther:8:9 @ Then were called the king’s scribes at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written all just as Mordecai commanded to the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the governors and the princes of the provinces who were from India unto Ethiopia, one hundred and twenty–seven provinces, unto every province according to its writing, and unto every people according to its language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.

lesserot@Esther:8:12 @ On one day in all the provinces of king Achashverosh, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.

lesserot@Esther:8:13 @ A copy of the writing to be given out as a law in every province, was published unto all nations, and that the Jews should be ready against that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.

lesserot@Esther:8:17 @ And in every province, and in every city, whithersoever the king’s command reached with his law, there were joy and gladness for the Jews, entertainments and a feast–day: and many of the people of the land became Jews; for the dread of the Jews had fallen upon them.

lesserot@Esther:9:1 @ And in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day thereof, when the king’s command with his law drew near to he put into execution, on the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to have power over them, which had been changed nevertheless, so that the Jews had power over those that hated them,

lesserot@Esther:9:4 @ For Mordecai was great in the king’s house, and his fame went throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.

lesserot@Esther:9:9 @ And Parmashtha, and Arissai, and Aridai, and Vayzatha,

lesserot@Esther:9:12 @ Then said the king unto Esther the queen, In Shushan the capital have the Jews slain and exterminated five hundred men, and the ten sons of Haman: what have they done in the rest of the king’s provinces? Now what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request farther? and it shall be done.

lesserot@Esther:9:13 @ Then said Esther, If it please the king, let it tomorrow also be granted to the Jews who are in Shushan to do according to the law of this day, and let the ten sons of Haman be hanged on the gallows.

lesserot@Esther:9:24 @ Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the adversary of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to exterminate them, and had cast the Pur, that is, the lot, to destroy them, and to exterminate them.

lesserot@Esther:9:25 @ But when came before the king, he ordered by that letter that his wicked device, which he had devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head: and they hanged him and his sons on the gallows.

lesserot@Esther:9:26 @ Therefore did they call these days Purim, after the name of Pur: therefore, because of all the words of this letter, both for that which they had experienced thereby, and for that which had occurred unto them,

lesserot@Esther:9:29 @ Then wrote Esther the queen, the daughter of Abichayil, with Mordecai the Jew, with all due strength, to confirm this letter of Purim the second time.

lesserot@Esther:10:1 @ And king Achashverosh imposed a tribute upon the land, and the isles of the sea.

lesserot@Esther:10:2 @ And all the acts of his strength and of his might, and the exposition of the greatness of Mordecai, wherewith the king made him great, behold they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia.

lesserot@Esther:10:3 @ For Mordecai the Jew was the second in rank after king Achashverosh, and great among the Jews, and acceptable to the multitude of his brethren, a promoter of good to his people, and speaking peace to all its seed.

lesserot@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of ‘Uz, Job was his name; And this man was perfect and upright, and fearing God, and eschewing evil.

lesserot@Job:1:3 @ And his cattle consisted of seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she–asses, and he had a very great store of servants: so that this man was greater than all the sons of the east.

lesserot@Job:1:4 @ And his sons used to go and prepare a feast in the house of every one on his day; and they sent and invited their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.

lesserot@Job:1:5 @ And it happened, when the days of the feast were gone round, that Job sent and sanctified them, and he then rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt–offerings according to the number of all of them; for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and have renounced God in their heart. In this manner used Job to do all the time.

lesserot@Job:1:8 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Hast thou directed thy attention toward my servant Job; for there is none like him on the earth, a man perfect and upright, who feareth God, and escheweth evil?

lesserot@Job:1:9 @ Then answered the Accuser the Lord, and said, Is it for nought that Job feareth God?

lesserot@Job:1:10 @ Behold, thou hast indeed placed a fence about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath, on every side: the work of his hands hast thou blessed, and his cattle are far spread out in the land.

lesserot@Job:1:12 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Behold, all that is his be in thy power; only against himself shalt thou not stretch forth thy hand. The Accuser went thereupon away from the presence of the Lord.

lesserot@Job:1:13 @ And it happened on a certain day, when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their first–born brother,

lesserot@Job:1:16 @ This one was yet speaking, when another came, and said, A fire of God fell from heaven, and burnt among the sheep and the young men, and consumed them; and I am escaped, none but myself alone, to tell it unto thee.

lesserot@Job:1:17 @ This one was yet speaking, when another came, and said, The Chaldeans posted themselves in three divisions, and made an inroad against the camels, and took them away, and the young men they slew with the edge of the sword; and I am escaped, none but myself alone, to tell it unto thee.

lesserot@Job:1:18 @ While this one was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their first–born brother:

lesserot@Job:1:20 @ Then arose Job, and rent his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and prostrated himself.

lesserot@Job:1:22 @ With all this did Job not sin, and attributed no injustice to God.

lesserot@Job:2:3 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Hast thou directed thy attention toward my servant Job: for there is none like him on the earth, a man perfect and upright, who feareth God, and escheweth evil? and he is still holding fast to his integrity, and thou hast incited me against him, to destroy him without cause.

lesserot@Job:2:4 @ Then answered the Accuser the Lord, and said, Skin for skin: yea, all that a man hath will he give in behalf of his life.

lesserot@Job:2:5 @ But stretch only forth thy hand, and touch his bone and his flesh, and whether he will not renounce thee to thy face.

lesserot@Job:2:6 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Behold, he is in thy hand: only take care of his life.

lesserot@Job:2:7 @ Thereupon went the Accuser forth from the presence of the Lord, and he smote Job with a sore inflammation, from the sole of his foot unto the crown of his head.

lesserot@Job:2:9 @ Then said his wife unto him, Art thou still holding fast to thy integrity? renounce God, and die.

lesserot@Job:2:10 @ But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the worthless women would speak. What? should we accept the good alone, from God, and the evil we should not accept? With all this did Job not sin with his lips.

lesserot@Job:2:11 @ When now the three friends of Job had heard of all this evil that was come over him, they came every one from his own place, Eliphaz the Themanite, and Bildad the Shuchite, and Zophar the Na’amthite; and they met together to come to condole with him and to comfort him.

lesserot@Job:2:12 @ And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and they recognised him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his robe, and strewed dust upon their heads toward heaven.

lesserot@Job:2:13 @ They likewise sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights; but no one spoke a word unto him; for they saw that his pain was very great.

lesserot@Job:3:1 @ After this time Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day.

lesserot@Job:3:3 @ Oh that the day whereon I was born might perish, and the night when it was said, There hath been a male child conceived.

lesserot@Job:3:8 @ Let those denounce it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning cry.

lesserot@Job:3:11 @ Why did I not die from the womb, and was I not born merely to perish at once?

lesserot@Job:3:16 @ Or as an untimely birth, hidden I should not exist; as infants that never have seen the light;

lesserot@Job:3:18 @ the prisoners repose together, they hear no more the taskmaster’s voice.

lesserot@Job:3:19 @ The small with the great is there, and the servant free from his master.

lesserot@Job:3:23 @ to a man whose way is hidden, and around whom God hath placed a fence?

lesserot@Job:3:25 @ Because what I greatly dreaded is come upon me, and what I apprehended is come unto me.

lesserot@Job:3:26 @ I have had no safety, and no quiet, and no rest; and harrowing trouble is come.

lesserot@Job:4:2 @ If we essay to address a word to thee, wilt thou be wearied? yet who is able to refrain from speaking?

lesserot@Job:4:6 @ Is not then thy fear of God still thy confidence, thy hope equal to the integrity of thy ways?

lesserot@Job:4:7 @ Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous destroyed?

lesserot@Job:4:9 @ Before the breathing of God they perish, and before the breath of his nostrils they come to their end.

lesserot@Job:4:11 @ The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the whelps of the lioness have to scatter themselves abroad.

lesserot@Job:4:12 @ But to me a word came by stealth, and my ear took in a scarcely perceptible whisper thereof.

lesserot@Job:4:13 @ In intense thoughts out of visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men:

lesserot@Job:4:16 @ It stood still, but I could not recognize its form; a figure was before my eyes, a slight whisper, then a voice I heard, saying,

lesserot@Job:4:17 @ Can a mortal be more righteous than God? or can a man be more pure than his Maker?

lesserot@Job:4:18 @ Behold, in his servants he putteth no trust, and his angels he chargeth with folly:

lesserot@Job:4:19 @ How much less in those that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed till they come to be eaten by the moth?

lesserot@Job:4:20 @ From morning to evening are they broken to pieces: without laying it they perish for ever.

lesserot@Job:4:21 @ Behold, their excellency which is in them is torn away: they die, and this without wisdom.

lesserot@Job:5:1 @ Do but call: is there one that will answer thee? and to whom of the saints wilt thou turn thyself?

lesserot@Job:5:2 @ For vexation will prove death to a foolish man, and jealousy will slay the simple.

lesserot@Job:5:3 @ I have myself seen the foolish taking root; but I suddenly held his habitation as accursed.

lesserot@Job:5:4 @ His children are far from help, and men crush them in the gate, with no one to deliver them.

lesserot@Job:5:7 @ But man is born unto trouble, as young birds take up their flight.

lesserot@Job:5:11 @ To set up the lowly on high, that those who mourn may rise high to happiness;

lesserot@Job:5:12 @ who frustrateth the plans of the crafty, so that their hands cannot execute their well–devised counsel;

lesserot@Job:5:13 @ Who catcheth the wise in their own craftiness; and the advise of the perverse is hastened on headlong;

lesserot@Job:5:17 @ Behold, happy is the man whom God admonisheth: despise then not the correction of the Almighty.

lesserot@Job:5:18 @ For he it is that woundeth, and bindeth up: he smiteth, and his hands do heal.

lesserot@Job:5:19 @ In six distresses will he deliver thee; and in seven there shall no evil touch thee.

lesserot@Job:5:24 @ And thou shalt know that there is peace in thy tent; and thou wilt look over thy habitation, and shalt miss nothing.

lesserot@Job:5:25 @ And thou shalt know that thy seed is numerous, and thy offspring as the herbage of the earth.

lesserot@Job:5:26 @ Thon wilt go in a ripe age unto the grave, as a shock of corn is carried home in its season.

lesserot@Job:5:27 @ Behold this, we have searched it out, so it is: hear it, and do thou note it well for thyself.

lesserot@Job:6:3 @ For now it is already heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore are my words confused.

lesserot@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof my spirit drinketh it: the terrors of God set themselves in array against me.

lesserot@Job:6:5 @ Doth the wild ass bray over the grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?

lesserot@Job:6:6 @ Is ever tasteless food eaten without salt? or is there any flavor in the white of an egg?

lesserot@Job:6:7 @ My soul refuseth to touch them: they are unto me like disgusting food.

lesserot@Job:6:8 @ Oh that some one would grant the accomplishment of my request; and that God would grant me the fulfillment of my hope!

lesserot@Job:6:9 @ Yea, that it would please God that he might crush me: that he would let loose his hand, and make an end of me!

lesserot@Job:6:10 @ Then would this be still my comfort; yea, I would rejoice in my pain while be would not spare: that I have not gainsaid the commands of the Holy One.––

lesserot@Job:6:11 @ What is my strength, that I should wait? and what my end, that I should yet longer retain my patience?

lesserot@Job:6:12 @ Is the strength of stones my strength? or is my flesh brazen?

lesserot@Job:6:13 @ Truly, am I not without my help in me? and is not wise counsel driven far away from me?

lesserot@Job:6:14 @ As though I were one who refuseth kindness to his friend, and forsaketh the fear of the Almighty:

lesserot@Job:6:17 @ At the time when they feel the warmth, they vanish; when it is hot, they are quenched out of their place.

lesserot@Job:6:26 @ Do ye think to reprove words, and as wind the speeches of one that is despairing?

lesserot@Job:6:30 @ Is there any wrong on my tongue? or should my palate not understand what is iniquitous?

lesserot@Job:7:1 @ Is there not a limited time of service to a mortal upon the earth? Are not his days also like the days of a hired laborer?

lesserot@Job:7:2 @ As a servant eagerly longeth for the shadow, and as a hired laborer hopeth for his reward:

lesserot@Job:7:4 @ When I He down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am wearied with tossings about till the dawn of day.

lesserot@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is covered with worms and clods of dust: my skin is burst open, and become loathsome.

lesserot@Job:7:7 @ Oh remember that nothing but a breath is my life; that my eye will not again see happiness;

lesserot@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud vanisheth and passeth away: so will he that goeth down to the nether world not come up again.

lesserot@Job:7:10 @ He will return no more to his house, and his place will not recognize him any more.

lesserot@Job:7:11 @ Therefore will I also not restrain my mouth: I will speak in the anguish of my spirit: I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

lesserot@Job:7:18 @ And that thou shouldst visit him every morning, probe him every moment?

lesserot@Job:8:12 @ It is yet in its greenness, not yet cut down, when it withereth before any other grass.

lesserot@Job:8:19 @ Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the dust others will grow up.

lesserot@Job:9:2 @ Truly I know that it is so: and how could a mortal be righteous before God?

lesserot@Job:9:4 @ He is wise of heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and escaped unscathed?

lesserot@Job:12:10 @ in whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the spirit of all the bodies of men?

lesserot@Job:12:12 @ So It with the ancients wisdom, and with length of days understanding,

lesserot@Job:12:13 @ That with him are wisdom and strength, his are counsel and understanding.

lesserot@Job:12:16 @ With him are strength and counsel: his are the deceived and the deceiver.

lesserot@Job:12:24 @ He taketh away the sense of the chiefs of the people of the land, and causeth them to wander astray in a wilderness when there is no way.

lesserot@Job:13:5 @ Oh, who would grant that ye might keep a profound silences! and it would he accounted unto you as wisdom.

lesserot@Job:13:6 @ Do hearken but to my reasoning, and listen to the pleadings of my lips.

lesserot@Job:13:11 @ Doth not his excellency terrify you? and his dread fall upon you?

lesserot@Job:13:16 @ Even he will come to my assistance; for a hypocrite cannot come before him.

lesserot@Job:13:17 @ Listen well to my word, and to my demonstration with your ears.

lesserot@Job:13:19 @ Who is he that will contend with me? for now, if I keep silence, I must perish.

lesserot@Job:14:1 @ Man born of a woman is short of days, and sated with harrowing trouble.

lesserot@Job:14:2 @ Like a flower he cometh forth, and is cut down: and he fleeth like a shadow, and remaineth not.

lesserot@Job:14:5 @ Seeing that his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, that thou hast set his bounds which he cannot pass:

lesserot@Job:14:6 @ Turn thyself from him that he may recover from his pain, and be able to enjoy like a hired laborer his day.

lesserot@Job:14:7 @ For there is hope for the tree: if it be cut down, it may still sprout again, while its young shoot will not cease.

lesserot@Job:14:9 @ Yet through the scent of water will it flourish, and produce boughs as though It were newly planted.

lesserot@Job:14:10 @ But man dieth, and lieth powerless: yea, the son of earth departeth––and where is he?

lesserot@Job:14:12 @ So doth man lie down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they will not awake, and will not be roused out of their sleep.

lesserot@Job:14:17 @ Sealed up in a bag is my transgression, and thou yet addest to my iniquity.

lesserot@Job:14:18 @ But truly a falling mountain will crumble, and a rock is moved out of its place.

lesserot@Job:14:20 @ Thou assailest him with might without ceasing, till he passeth away: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him off.

lesserot@Job:14:21 @ His children acquire honor, but he knoweth it not: and they are esteemed little, but he perceiveth nothing of them.

lesserot@Job:14:22 @ But his body. on him, feeleth pain, and his soul will mourn for him.

lesserot@Job:15:2 @ Should a wise man utter windy knowledge, and fill his inward parts with the east wind?

lesserot@Job:15:3 @ Should he reason with a speech which availeth nothing? and with words in which there is no profit?

lesserot@Job:15:4 @ Yea, thou truly makest void the fear, and diminishest devotion before God.

lesserot@Job:15:8 @ Hast thou listened to the secret counsel of God? and is wisdom therefore of little esteem with thee?

lesserot@Job:15:9 @ What knowest thou, that we do not know? what understandest thou, which is not with us?

lesserot@Job:15:14 @ What is man, that he should be pure? and that he who is born of woman should be declared righteous?

lesserot@Job:15:15 @ Behold, in his holy ones he putteth no trust; and the heavens are not pure in his eyes:

lesserot@Job:15:18 @ Which wise men have ever told, and have not concealed, as they obtained it from their fathers;

lesserot@Job:15:20 @ All his days is the wicked plagued with pain, and the number of years which are laid by for the tyrant.

lesserot@Job:15:21 @ A sound of terrors is in his ears: during peace will the waster come over him.

lesserot@Job:15:22 @ He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is looked for by the sword.

lesserot@Job:15:23 @ He wandereth abroad for bread, Where is it? he knoweth that there is ready at his hand the day of darkness.

lesserot@Job:15:24 @ Distress and anguish terrify him: they assail him with might, as a king prepared for the battle.

lesserot@Job:15:25 @ Because he had stretched out against God his hand, and strengthened himself against the Almighty;

lesserot@Job:15:26 @ he had run against him, with an neck, with the thick roundings of his bucklers;

lesserot@Job:15:27 @ Because he had covered his face with his fat, and had made thick folds of fat on his flanks;

lesserot@Job:15:29 @ will he not remain rich, neither will his wealth endure, nor will he attain their perfection on earth.

lesserot@Job:15:30 @ He will never depart out of darkness: the flame shall dry up his shoots, and he will depart by the breath of God’s mouth.

lesserot@Job:15:32 @ Even before his time will it be overfull, and his branches will not be green.

lesserot@Job:15:33 @ He will shake off like the vine his unripe grapes, and cast off like the olive his blossoms.

lesserot@Job:16:8 @ And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, they are my witnesses; and my leanness riseth up for me, giveth its testimony to my face.

lesserot@Job:16:9 @ In his wrath he teareth me to pieces, and assaileth me: he gnasheth over me with his teeth; my adversary sendeth threatening looks at me.

lesserot@Job:16:13 @ His archers encompass me round about; he cleaveth my reins sunder, and doth not pity; he poureth out upon the ground my gall;

lesserot@Job:16:17 @ Not because any violence is in my hands, and while my prayer is pure.

lesserot@Job:16:19 @ Even now, behold, my witness is in the heavens, and one that testifieth for me is on high.

lesserot@Job:17:1 @ My spirit is broken, my days are cut short, the grave is ready for me.

lesserot@Job:17:3 @ And thou, attend, I pray thee, be my surety with thyself: who else is there that would strike hands with me?

lesserot@Job:17:5 @ Every one of them speaketh deceptively to his friends: may also the eyes of his children fail.

lesserot@Job:17:7 @ Therefore is my eye dim from vexation, and my limbs are all of them like a shadow.

lesserot@Job:17:8 @ Upright men must be astonished at this, and the innocent must arouse himself against the hypocrite.

lesserot@Job:17:9 @ Yet will the righteous hold firmly on to his way; and he that is clean of hands will acquire additional strength.

lesserot@Job:17:10 @ But all of you, do only return, and come but: and yet I shall not find among you one wise man.

lesserot@Job:17:14 @ When I call to corruption, Thou art my father: Thou art my mother, and my sister, to the worms.

lesserot@Job:17:15 @ Ay, where is then my hope? as for my hope, who will see it?

lesserot@Job:17:16 @ Let then my limbs sink down to the nether world: truly in the dust alone there is rest for all.

lesserot@Job:18:4 @ Thou, the one that teareth himself to pieces in his anger–– shall for thy sake the earth be forsaken, and the rock be moved away out of its place?

lesserot@Job:18:5 @ Ah, truly the light of the wicked will be quenched, and the spark of his fire shall not give light.

lesserot@Job:18:6 @ The light becometh dark in his tent, and his lamp will be quenched above him.

lesserot@Job:18:7 @ His powerful steps will be narrowed, and his own counsel will cast him down.

lesserot@Job:18:8 @ For he is driven into the net by his own feet, and he taketh his walk upon a snare.

lesserot@Job:18:10 @ The cord is hidden for him in the ground, and a trap is set for him on the pathway.

lesserot@Job:18:12 @ His first–born will suffer hunger, and calamity will be ready for his wife.

lesserot@Job:18:13 @ It will devour the limbs of his body: yea, the first–born of death will devour his limbs.

lesserot@Job:18:14 @ Then will be plucked up out of his tent his confidence, and will urge him forward to the king of terrors.

lesserot@Job:18:15 @ It will dwell in his tent, because it is no more his: there will be strewed sulphur on his habitation.

lesserot@Job:18:16 @ Beneath, his roots will be dried up, and above will his boughs he cut away.

lesserot@Job:18:17 @ His resemblance vanisheth from the earth, and no name remaineth for him in the streets.

lesserot@Job:18:19 @ He will have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any that escapeth in the places of his sojourning.

lesserot@Job:18:20 @ Because of his day are they that come after him astonished, and they that went before are seized with shuddering.

lesserot@Job:18:21 @ Yea, such are the dwellings of the unjust, and this is the place of one that knew not God.

lesserot@Job:19:5 @ But if indeed ye wish to magnify yourselves above me, and to prove against me my disgrace:

lesserot@Job:19:6 @ Then know for certain that God hath bent me down, and hath laid his net all around me.

lesserot@Job:19:7 @ Behold, I cry out concerning the violence, but I am not answered: I entreat aloud, but there is no justice.

lesserot@Job:19:11 @ He hath also kindled against me his wrath, and he counteth me with himself as one of his adversaries.

lesserot@Job:19:12 @ Altogether come on his troops, and make level against me their way, and encamp round about my tent.

lesserot@Job:19:17 @ My breath is become nauseous to my wife, and my caressing, to the children of my own body.

lesserot@Job:19:18 @ Yea, children even despise me: I rise up, but they speak against me.

lesserot@Job:19:22 @ Why will ye persecute me as God, and will never be satisfied with my flesh?

lesserot@Job:19:26 @ And after my skin is cut to pieces will this be: and then freed from my body shall I behold God;

lesserot@Job:19:28 @ But if ye should say, How will we pursue him? seeing the root of the matter is found in me:

lesserot@Job:19:29 @ Then have dread for yourselves of the sword; for the wrath is an iniquity that bringeth the sword; in order that ye may know there is one that judgeth.

lesserot@Job:20:2 @ Even therefore do my inmost thoughts give me an answer, and for this reason do I feel a strong excitement within me.

lesserot@Job:20:4 @ Dost thou know this? from the very beginning of things, from the very time when man was placed upon earth it was,

lesserot@Job:20:5 @ That the triumphal shouting of the wicked is ever of but a recent date, and the joy of the hypocrite endureth only for a moment.

lesserot@Job:20:6 @ Though his exaltation should mount up to the heavens, and his head should reach unto the clouds;

lesserot@Job:20:7 @ Yet when he but turneth round will he vanish for ever; those who have seen him will say, Where is he?

lesserot@Job:20:8 @ Like a dream will he fly away, and men will find him no more; yea, he will be chased away like a vision of the night.

lesserot@Job:20:9 @ If an eye have surveyed him, it will not do so again, and it will not behold him any more in his place.

lesserot@Job:20:10 @ His children will suffer oppression from the indigent, and his hands will have to restore his wealth.

lesserot@Job:20:11 @ his bones are full of his youthful vigor; but it will lie down with him in the dust.

lesserot@Job:20:12 @ If the evil be sweet in his mouth, he will conceal it under his tongue;

lesserot@Job:20:13 @ He will cherish it, and not forsake it; and hold it back within his palate;

lesserot@Job:20:14 @ His food is thus changed within his bowels, and becometh the venom of asps within him.

lesserot@Job:20:15 @ The wealth which he hath swallowed, will he have to vomit up again; God will drive it out of his belly.

lesserot@Job:20:16 @ The poison of asps will he have to suck; the viper’s tongue will slay him.

lesserot@Job:20:20 @ Because he knew not quietness in his bosom, shall he not escape through what is the most precious to him.

lesserot@Job:20:21 @ Nothing was spared from his craving to eat: therefore shall his wealth not prosper.

lesserot@Job:20:22 @ In the fulness of his abundance will distress assail him: every hand of troubled will come against him.

lesserot@Job:20:23 @ In order to fill his belly, will send out against him the fury of his wrath, and will rain it upon him for his eating.

lesserot@Job:20:25 @ He draweth it, and it cometh out of the body; yea, out of his gall the glittering cometh forth: over him come the terrors.

lesserot@Job:20:26 @ Entire darkness is laid by for his treasures: a fire not urged by blowing will consume him; it will destroy any one that is left in his tent.

lesserot@Job:20:27 @ The heavens will lay open his iniquity; and the earth will raise herself up against him.

lesserot@Job:20:28 @ The product of his house will be banished, flowing away on the day of his wrath.

lesserot@Job:20:29 @ This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and his decreed heritage from God.

lesserot@Job:21:2 @ Hear, O hear my speech, and let this be wherewith you give consolations.

lesserot@Job:21:4 @ As for me,––is against man my complaint? and if this be so, why should my spirit not be impatient?

lesserot@Job:21:8 @ Their seed is firmly established in their presence with them. their offspring are before their eyes.

lesserot@Job:21:10 @ The bull of each one gendereth, and disappointeth not: the cow of each one calveth, and casteth not her young.

lesserot@Job:21:15 @ What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit shall we have, if we entreat him urgently?"

lesserot@Job:21:17 @ How often is the lamp of the wicked quenched? and how often cometh over them their calamity? and doth distribute their lot in his anger?

lesserot@Job:21:19 @ Should God lay up for his children his wrong–doing? it were better that he reward him, that he might know it himself.

lesserot@Job:21:20 @ His own eyes ought to see his downfall, and from the wrath of the Almighty ought he to drink.

lesserot@Job:21:21 @ For what care hath he for his household after him, when the number of his months is all apportioned to him?

lesserot@Job:21:22 @ Is this fitting God, who teacheth knowledge? him who judgeth those that are highest?

lesserot@Job:21:23 @ That this one dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet;

lesserot@Job:21:24 @ His vessels being full of healthy fluid, and the marrow of his bones being well moistened:

lesserot@Job:21:25 @ While this other dieth with an embittered soul, and hath never partaken of any happiness;

lesserot@Job:21:27 @ Behold, I know your thoughts, and the opinions which ye wrongfully devise against me.

lesserot@Job:21:28 @ For ye say, Where is the house of the noble–minded? and where is the tent of the dwelling–places of the wicked?

lesserot@Job:21:29 @ Have ye not asked the wayfarers? surely their token ye cannot disregard,

lesserot@Job:21:30 @ That the bad man is reserved for the day of calamity, are carried forward to the day of wrath.

lesserot@Job:21:31 @ who will tell him to his face of his way? and who will repay him what he hath done?

lesserot@Job:21:32 @ Yea he will indeed be carried to the grave, and men will quickly think of his monument:

lesserot@Job:22:2 @ Can a man be serviceable unto God? Truly the intelligent is serviceable unto himself.

lesserot@Job:22:3 @ Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that thou art righteous? or is it any gain to him, that thou makest thy ways perfect?

lesserot@Job:22:4 @ Is it out of fear of thee that he will reproach thee? or go with thee into judgment?

lesserot@Job:22:5 @ Is not thy evil great? and no end to thy iniquities?

lesserot@Job:22:12 @ Is not God in the height of heaven? and beholding the highest elevation of the stars, however high they are?

lesserot@Job:22:20 @ "Is not he destroyed that rose up against us, and hath not the fire consumed what they had left?"

lesserot@Job:22:22 @ Do but accept instruction from his mouth, and lay up his saying in thy heart.

lesserot@Job:22:30 @ He will even deliver him who is not guiltless: and thou wilt be delivered by the purity of thy hands.

lesserot@Job:23:2 @ Even now is my complaint bitter: my suffering is heavier than my groans.

lesserot@Job:23:3 @ Oh who would grant that I knew where I might find him! that I might attain to his Judgment throne!

lesserot@Job:23:6 @ Would he with his power contend against me? he would truly not lay such doings to my charge.

lesserot@Job:23:8 @ But, lo, I go eastward––and he is not there; and to the west–– and I cannot perceive him;

lesserot@Job:23:11 @ On his steps my foot hath held fast: his way have I kept, and swerved not.

lesserot@Job:23:12 @ From the commandment of his lips have I also not moved away: as a fixed statute for me have I treasured up the sayings of his mouth.

lesserot@Job:23:13 @ But he is unchangeably one, and who can turn him? And what his will desireth, even that he doth.

lesserot@Job:23:15 @ Therefore am I terrified at his presence: I will reflect, and be in dread of him.

lesserot@Job:23:17 @ Because I was not destroyed before this darkness, and because he hath not hidden from my face gloom.

lesserot@Job:24:1 @ Why are not times treasured up by the Almighty, and why do his adorers not see his days?

lesserot@Job:24:5 @ Behold, as wild asses in the wilderness go they forth to their work, rising betimes after prey: the desert yieldeth food for them and for their young men.

lesserot@Job:24:12 @ Out of a populous city is groaning heard, and the soul of the deadly wounded crieth out: yet God regardeth it not as an offence.

lesserot@Job:24:14 @ With the earliest light riseth the murderer, he slayeth the poor and needy, and in the night he becometh like the thief.

lesserot@Job:24:15 @ And the eye of the adulterer watcheth for the twilight, saying, No eye will see me; and placeth a covering on his face.

lesserot@Job:24:17 @ For to all of these alike is the morning as the shadow of death; for they are familiar with the terrors of the shadow of death.

lesserot@Job:24:18 @ Swift are such men on the face of the water; accursed is their field on the land; none of them turneth himself to the way, of the vineyards.

lesserot@Job:24:22 @ But he also draweth down the mighty with his power: he riseth up, no one is sure of life.

lesserot@Job:24:23 @ To such granteth to be in safety, that he may find support; and His eyes are upon their ways.

lesserot@Job:25:3 @ Can the number of his hosts be given? and over whom riseth not his light?

lesserot@Job:25:4 @ How then can man be justified with God? or how can be one that is born of woman?

lesserot@Job:25:5 @ Behold, even as regardeth the moon, that is not bright; yea, the stars are not pure in his eyes.

lesserot@Job:26:2 @ What assistance hast thou given to the powerless? hast thou helped the arm without strength?

lesserot@Job:26:3 @ How hast thou counselled the unwise? and what sound wisdom hast thou made known so plentifully?

lesserot@Job:26:6 @ Naked is the nether world before him, and there is no covering for the place of corruption.

lesserot@Job:26:8 @ He bound up the waters in his clouds; and the cloud bursteth not under their weight;

lesserot@Job:26:9 @ He closed up the surface of his throne, spreading over it his cloud;

lesserot@Job:26:10 @ A fixed limit he compassed off over the face of the waters, for the division of the light and darkness.

lesserot@Job:26:11 @ The pillars of heaven tremble greatly, and are astounded at his rebuke.

lesserot@Job:26:12 @ By his power he split in pieces the sea, and by his understanding he crushed pride:

lesserot@Job:26:13 @ By his breath the heavens beauty; his hand hath created the flying serpent.

lesserot@Job:26:14 @ Lo, these are ends of his ways; for how slight a whisper is heard of him! but the thunder of his mighty deeds who can understand?

lesserot@Job:27:1 @ And Job continued taking up his parable, and said,

lesserot@Job:27:3 @ All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;

lesserot@Job:27:7 @ Like the wicked is my enemy, and he that riseth up against me like a wrong–doer.

lesserot@Job:27:8 @ For what is the hope of the hypocrite, when he hath gained unjust wealth, when God casteth forth his soul?

lesserot@Job:27:9 @ Will God hear his cry, when distress cometh upon him?

lesserot@Job:27:11 @ I will instruct you concerning what is in the hand of God: which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.

lesserot@Job:27:12 @ Lo! ye yourselves have all beheld it: why is it then that ye deal in such vanities?

lesserot@Job:27:13 @ This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the portion of tyrants, which they shall receive from the Almighty.

lesserot@Job:27:14 @ If his children be multiplied, it is only for the sword; and his offspring will not be satisfied with bread.

lesserot@Job:27:15 @ Those of his that are left to escape will be buried by death; and his widows will not be able to weep.

lesserot@Job:27:18 @ He buildeth his house like the moth, and like a hut that a keeper hath made.

lesserot@Job:27:19 @ Rich will he lie down, but will not be gathered: one openeth his eyes, and he is no more.

lesserot@Job:27:21 @ The east wind will lift him up, and he must be gone; and it hurleth him like a storm out of his place.

lesserot@Job:27:22 @ And will cast upon him, and bare no pity: out of his hand will surely escape.

lesserot@Job:27:23 @ Men will clap their hands over him, and will hiss after him out of his place.

lesserot@Job:28:1 @ For truly there is a source for the silver, and a place for the gold which men refine.

lesserot@Job:28:2 @ Iron is taken out of the dust, and the stone is melted into copper.

lesserot@Job:28:5 @ The earth, out of which cometh forth bread, is under its surface turned up as it were with fire.

lesserot@Job:28:6 @ Her stones are the place whence the sapphire cometh; and golden dust is also there;

lesserot@Job:28:9 @ To the flinty rock he stretcheth forth his hand; he overturneth the mountains from the root.

lesserot@Job:28:10 @ Amid rocks he heweth out canals: and every precious thing doth his eye behold.

lesserot@Job:28:11 @ The various droppings of water he uniteth into streams, and what is hidden he bringeth forth to light.

lesserot@Job:28:12 @ But wisdom––where shall she he found? and where is the place of understanding?

lesserot@Job:28:13 @ Man knoweth not her value: and she is not to be found in the land of the living.

lesserot@Job:28:14 @ The deep saith, Not in me is she: and the sea saith, She is not with me.

lesserot@Job:28:18 @ Coral and crystal will not be thought of; and the value of wisdom is above pearls.

lesserot@Job:28:20 @ But wisdom––whence cometh she? and where is the place of understanding?

lesserot@Job:28:21 @ Yea, she is hidden from the eyes of all living, and from the fowls of the heavens is she concealed.

lesserot@Job:28:25 @ When he imparted weight unto the wind; and the waters he established by measure;

lesserot@Job:28:27 @ Then did he see her, and make her known; he established her, and also searched her out.

lesserot@Job:28:28 @ And he said unto man, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to eschew evil is understanding.

lesserot@Job:29:1 @ And Job continued to take up his parable, and said,

lesserot@Job:29:3 @ When his lamp shone over my head, when by his light I could walk in darkness;

lesserot@Job:29:7 @ When I went out to the gate close by the city, when in the open place I established my seat:

lesserot@Job:29:13 @ The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me; and the heart of the widow I caused to sing for joy.

lesserot@Job:29:17 @ And I broke the cutting–teeth of the wrong–doer, and out of his teeth I cast down his prey.

lesserot@Job:29:21 @ Unto me men listened, and waited, and watched in silence for my counsel

lesserot@Job:29:25 @ I chose their way for them, and I sat as chief, and dwelt as king in his army, as one that comforteth mourners.

lesserot@Job:30:12 @ Against my right hand rise up this swarm of worthless youths: they push away my feet, and they level against me their calamity–bringing paths.

lesserot@Job:30:14 @ As a broad breach they come: amidst a loud noise they rolled themselves along.

lesserot@Job:30:15 @ Terrors have turned their face against me; they chase like the wind my glory: and like a cloud is my happiness passed away.

lesserot@Job:30:16 @ And now my soul is poured out over me; the days of affliction have seized on me;

lesserot@Job:30:18 @ Through the Almlghty’s power is my garment made unknown: like the opening of my coat hath he enclosed me.

lesserot@Job:30:22 @ Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to pass away, and dissolvest in me all wise counsel.

lesserot@Job:30:24 @ But doth not a man stretch out his hand among ruins? or doth one not cry out therefrom when he meeteth his downfall?

lesserot@Job:30:25 @ Did I not weep for him that was hard pressed by misfortune? was not my soul grieved for the needy?

lesserot@Job:30:28 @ I walk about mournfully without sunlight: when I rise up, in the assembly, I cry with pain.

lesserot@Job:30:31 @ And thus is changed to mourning my harp, and my pipe to the sound of weeping.

lesserot@Job:31:3 @ Is not calamity for the unjust? and misfortune for the wrong–doers?

lesserot@Job:31:7 @ If my step have turned aside from the way, and my heart have walked after my eyes, and if any blemish have cleaved to my hands:

lesserot@Job:31:11 @ For this would be incest; yea, it would be an iniquity the judges;

lesserot@Job:31:14 @ What then could I do when God should rise up? and when he should investigate, what could I answer him?

lesserot@Job:31:16 @ If ever I denied the wish of the indigent, or ever allowed the eyes of the widow to fall;

lesserot@Job:31:19 @ If ever I saw any one perishing for want of clothing, or the needy without covering:

lesserot@Job:31:20 @ If his loins have not blessed me, and if he have not been warmed with the fleece of my sheep;

lesserot@Job:31:23 @ For dreaded by me was the calamitous punishment of God, and against his highness I can accomplish nothing.

lesserot@Job:31:27 @ And my heart became misled in secret, and my hand kissed my mouth:

lesserot@Job:31:28 @ This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge; for thus would I have denied the God that is above.

lesserot@Job:31:30 @ But I suffered not my mouth to sin by denouncing with a curse his soul:––

lesserot@Job:31:31 @ If the men of my tent said not, Oh is there one that is not satisfied of his flesh; ––

lesserot@Job:31:35 @ Oh who will bring me one that would hear me! behold, here is my plea; may the Almighty answer me; and any record which my opponent may have written,––

lesserot@Job:32:1 @ So had these three men abstained from answering Job; because he was righteous in his own eyes.

lesserot@Job:32:2 @ Thereupon was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he had declared himself more righteous than God.

lesserot@Job:32:3 @ And against his three friends was his wrath kindled; because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.

lesserot@Job:32:5 @ But when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then was his wrath kindled.

lesserot@Job:32:7 @ I had said, Days shall speak, and multitude of years shall make wisdom known.

lesserot@Job:32:8 @ But it is the spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty which giveth them understanding.

lesserot@Job:32:9 @ Not those rich in years must be always wise: neither do the aged constantly understand what is just.

lesserot@Job:32:12 @ And now I understand you fully, and, behold, there is none that convinceth Job, or, that answereth his speeches among you.

lesserot@Job:32:13 @ Say then not, We have found wisdom: God will thrust him down, not man.

lesserot@Job:32:15 @ They are dismayed, they answer no more: words have escaped away from them.

lesserot@Job:32:19 @ Behold, my bosom is like wine which hath not been opened: like new bottles it is ready to burst.

lesserot@Job:33:9 @ "I am pure without transgression, I am quite clean; and there is no iniquity in me:

lesserot@Job:33:13 @ Why dost thou contend against him? for with all his words will he not give an answer.

lesserot@Job:33:15 @ In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumbers upon the couch:

lesserot@Job:33:18 @ He withholdeth his soul from the pit, and his life from passing away by the sword.

lesserot@Job:33:19 @ And so is he admonished by pain upon his couch, and all his bones with violent.

lesserot@Job:33:20 @ So that his inclination abhorreth bread, and his soul, the most agreeable food.

lesserot@Job:33:21 @ His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen, and his bones that were not seen stick out.

lesserot@Job:33:22 @ Yea, his soul draweth near unto the pit, and his life to those that slay.

lesserot@Job:33:23 @ If there be now about him one single angel, as defender, one out of a thousand, to tell for man his uprightness:

lesserot@Job:33:24 @ Then is he gracious unto him, and saith, Release him from going down to the pit, I have found an atonement.

lesserot@Job:33:25 @ His flesh becometh full again as in youth: he returneth to the days of his boyhood.

lesserot@Job:33:26 @ He will offer his entreaty unto God, and he will receive him in favor, that he may see his face with joy: so doth He recompense unto the mortal his righteousness.

lesserot@Job:33:27 @ He then should assemble men around, and say, "I had sinned, and perverted what is right, yet have I not received a like return."

lesserot@Job:33:28 @ Thus he redeemeth his soul from passing into the pit, and his life will look joyously on the light.

lesserot@Job:33:30 @ To bring back his soul from the pit, that she may shine in the light of life.

lesserot@Job:33:31 @ Listen well, O Job, hearken unto me: keep silence, and I will truly speak.

lesserot@Job:33:32 @ If thou hast any words, answer me: speak, for I wish to justify thee.

lesserot@Job:33:33 @ If not, hearken thou unto me: keep silence, and I will teach thee wisdom.

lesserot@Job:34:2 @ Hear, O ye wise men, my words; and ye that have knowledge, give ear unto me.

lesserot@Job:34:4 @ Let us choose for ourselves what is just: let us acknowledge between ourselves what is good.

lesserot@Job:34:6 @ Should I lie concerning the justice due me? incurable is the arrow I bear in me without any transgression."

lesserot@Job:34:7 @ What man is there like Job, who drinketh scorning like water,

lesserot@Job:34:8 @ And is on the road to keep company with the wrong–doers, and to walk with men of wickedness?

lesserot@Job:34:10 @ Therefore ye men of sense hearken unto me: far is it from God to practise wickedness; and from the Almighty to do wrong!

lesserot@Job:34:14 @ If he were to set his heart upon man, he would gather unto himself his spirit and his breath:

lesserot@Job:34:15 @ All flesh would perish together, and the son of earth would return again unto dust.

lesserot@Job:34:16 @ If then thou wishest to understand, hear this: give ear to the sound of my words.

lesserot@Job:34:17 @ Is it possible that he who hateth justice should govern? or wilt thou condemn the righteous mighty One?

lesserot@Job:34:19 @ Whereas he is one that showeth no favor to chieftains, and distinguisheth not the rich before the indigent; for all of them are the work of his hands.

lesserot@Job:34:21 @ For big eyes are upon the ways of man, and all his steps doth he see.

lesserot@Job:34:22 @ There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the evil–doers can hide themselves.

lesserot@Job:34:27 @ Because they have departed from following him, and have not considered all his ways.

lesserot@Job:34:29 @ When he now granteth rest, who will condemn! and when he hideth his face, who can behold him? whether it be against a nation, or against one man, it is the same:

lesserot@Job:34:31 @ For truly it is only fitting to say unto God, "I bear, I will not do any wrong;

lesserot@Job:34:32 @ What I cannot see myself, do thou truly teach me; if I have done what is unjust, I will do so no more."

lesserot@Job:34:34 @ Men of sense will say unto me, and every wise man who heareth me,

lesserot@Job:34:35 @ That Job hath not spoken with knowledge, and that his words are without intelligence.

lesserot@Job:34:37 @ For he addeth unto his sin transgression: among us he uttereth too many loud words, and multiplieth his speeches against God.

lesserot@Job:35:2 @ Dost thou deem this to be just, that thou hast said, "My righteousness is more than God’s?"

lesserot@Job:35:10 @ But saith not, Where is God my maker, who bestoweth joyful songs even in the night;

lesserot@Job:35:11 @ Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of the heavens?

lesserot@Job:35:13 @ Only what is false will God not hear, nor will the Almighty regard it.

lesserot@Job:35:14 @ Although thou sayest, thou canst not see him: yet the decision is before him; and do thou wait for him.

lesserot@Job:35:15 @ But now, because his anger hath punished nothing, shall he not greatly take cognizance of the multitude of sins?

lesserot@Job:35:16 @ But Job openeth wide his mouth for nought: without knowledge he heapeth up words.

lesserot@Job:36:3 @ I will lift up my knowledge for him who is afar, and for my Maker will I obtain righteousness.

lesserot@Job:36:4 @ For truly no falsehood is my words: one that is upright in opinions with thee.

lesserot@Job:36:5 @ Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength of intellect.

lesserot@Job:36:7 @ He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous; but with kings on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.

lesserot@Job:36:12 @ But if they hearken not, they will pass away through the sword, and they will perish in want of knowledge.

lesserot@Job:36:15 @ He delivereth the afflicted through his affliction, and openeth through oppression his ear.

lesserot@Job:36:16 @ And also thee hath he incited away from the jaws of distress into a wide space, on the site of which there is no straitness; and what is set on thy table is full of fatness.

lesserot@Job:36:18 @ For there would be fury, If aught were to incite thee to utter an abundance; and the greatness of the infliction must not mislead thee.

lesserot@Job:36:21 @ Take heed, turn not thyself to wrong–doing, so that thou wouldst choose this because of affliction.

lesserot@Job:36:22 @ Behold, God is exalted by his power: who is an instructer like him?

lesserot@Job:36:23 @ Who hath given him a charge concerning his way? or who hath ever said, Thou hast acted unjustly?

lesserot@Job:36:24 @ Reflect, that thou shouldst magnify his work, which men have beheld.

lesserot@Job:36:26 @ Behold, God is great, and we comprehend him not, the number of his years can truly not be searched out.

lesserot@Job:36:27 @ For he taketh away drops of water, which are purified into rain in his mist:

lesserot@Job:36:28 @ These drop down out of the skies; they distil upon the multitude of men.

lesserot@Job:36:29 @ But can understand the outspreadings of the clouds? the tumult of his tabernacle?

lesserot@Job:36:30 @ Behold, he spreadeth out over it his light, and covereth up the roots of the sea.

lesserot@Job:37:2 @ Hear, O hear, the rattling of his thunder, and the storm’s roar that goeth out of his mouth.

lesserot@Job:37:3 @ Under the whole heavens he letteth it loose, and his lightning over the ends of the earth.

lesserot@Job:37:4 @ Behind it roareth the thunder; he thundereth with his majestic voice; and he holdeth them not back when his voice is heard.

lesserot@Job:37:5 @ God thundereth with his marvelous voice: he doth great things, which we cannot comprehend.

lesserot@Job:37:6 @ For to the snow he saith, Be thou on the earth: likewise the pouring rain, and to the pouring rains of his strength.

lesserot@Job:37:10 @ From the breathing of God ice is given, and the broad waters become solid.

lesserot@Job:37:11 @ Also with moisture he loadeth the cloud; he scattereth the cloud of his lightning;

lesserot@Job:37:12 @ And it is turned round about by his guidance, to execute what he commandeth it upon the face of the world, the earth.

lesserot@Job:37:13 @ Whether it be as a chastising rod––if this be destined for his earth––or for kindness, doth he cause it to come.

lesserot@Job:38:2 @ Who is this that casteth darkness counsel by words without knowledge?

lesserot@Job:38:8 @ And who closed up with doors the sea, when, issuing forth, it came out of the deep bosom of the earth?

lesserot@Job:38:14 @ She is changed as the sealing–clay: and stand as though newly clad.

lesserot@Job:38:21 @ Thou knowest it; because thou wast then born, and the number of thy days is great!

lesserot@Job:38:23 @ Which I have reserved for the time of distress, for the day of fight and battle?

lesserot@Job:39:11 @ Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? and wilt thou leave to him thy labor?

lesserot@Job:39:16 @ He hath made her callous against her young, as though they were not hers: her labor is in vain, no dread;

lesserot@Job:39:17 @ Because God hath denied her wisdom, and he hath not imparted to her understanding.

lesserot@Job:39:18 @ At the time she raiseth herself up on high, she laugheth at the horse and his rider.

lesserot@Job:39:19 @ Dost thou give the horse strength? dost thou clothe his neck with the rolling mane?

lesserot@Job:39:29 @ From there he espieth his food, from afar can his eyes behold.

lesserot@Job:39:30 @ His young ones, also, sip up blood: and where the slain be, there is he.

lesserot@Job:40:2 @ Will he that contendeth with the Almighty yet find fault? him that reproveth God answer this.

lesserot@Job:40:16 @ Only see, is his strength in his loins, and his force, in the muscles of his belly.

lesserot@Job:40:17 @ He stretcheth out his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his loins are closely wrapped together.

lesserot@Job:40:18 @ His bones are like pipes of brass: his frame is like bars of iron.

lesserot@Job:40:19 @ He is the first in rank of the works of God: he that made him can alone bring his sword near unto him.

lesserot@Job:40:20 @ But truly the mountains bear for him his food, and all the beasts of the field play there.

lesserot@Job:40:24 @ Can one catch him before his eyes? pierce his nose by means of snares?––

lesserot@Job:42:3 @ Who is he that dareth to conceal counsel without knowledge? Truly I have spoken of what I understood not, of things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

lesserot@Job:42:7 @ And it came to pass, after the Lord had spoken these words unto Job, that the Lord said to Eliphaz the Themanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; because ye have not spoken of me properly, like my servant Job.

lesserot@Job:42:10 @ And the Lord brought back the captivity of Job, when he prayed in behalf of his friends; and the Lord increased all that Job had had twofold.

lesserot@Job:42:11 @ And then came unto him all his brothers, and all his sisters, and all that had been of his acquaintance before, and ate bread with him in his house; and they condoled with him, and comforted him for all the evil that the Lord had brought upon him; and they gave him, every one, a kessitah, and every one an earring of gold.

lesserot@Job:42:12 @ And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she–asses.

lesserot@Job:42:16 @ And Job lived after this one hundred and forty years: and he saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:1:12 @ I Koheleth was king over Israel in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:1:13 @ And I directed my heart to inquire and to search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under the heavens: this is an evil employment which God hath given to the sons of man to busy themselves therewith.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:1:14 @ I saw all the deeds that are done under the sun: and, behold, all is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:1:15 @ What is crooked cannot be made straight; and that which is defective cannot be numbered.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:1:16 @ I spoke with my own heart, saying, Lo, I have truly obtained greater and more wisdom than all those who have been before me over Jerusalem: yea, my heart had seen much wisdom and knowledge.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:1:17 @ And I directed my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly; I have perceived that this also is a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:1:18 @ For where there is much wisdom there is much vexation: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth pain.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:1 @ Come, then, I said in my heart, I will have a taste of joy, and thou shalt see what is good; but, behold, this also was vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:2 @ Of laughter I said, It maketh one mad: and of joy, What doth this do?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:3 @ I resolved in my heart to indulge my body with wine, while my heart guideth itself with wisdom; and to lay fast hold on folly, till I might see what it is that is good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heavens during the number of the days of their life.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:7 @ I bought men–servants and maid–servants, and I had likewise those born in my house; I had also great possessions of cattle and flocks above all that had been before me in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:9 @ So was I great, and obtained more than all that had been before me in Jerusalem: also my wisdom remained with me.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:10 @ And whatsoever my eyes desired I refused them not; I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart was rejoiced with all my toil, and this was my portion of all my toil.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:11 @ But when I turned myself on all my works that my hands had wrought, and on the toil that I had toiled to accomplish: then, behold, all was vanity and a torture of the spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ And then I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly; for what the man that cometh after the king? that which have done already.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:13 @ But I saw indeed that wisdom hath the advantage over folly, as great as the advantage of light over darkness.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:14 @ The wise man hath his eyes in his head, while the fool walketh in darkness; but I myself perceived then also that one occurrence will befall all of them.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @ Then said I in my heart, The same that befalleth the fool will also befall even me: and why have I then been wiser? Then spoke I in my heart, that this is also vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @ For there is no recollection of the wise any more than of the fool for ever: seeing that which hath long ago been will, in the days that are coming, all be forgotten. And how doth the wise die equally with the fool!

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:17 @ Therefore I hated life; because I felt displeased with the work that is wrought under the sun; for all is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:19 @ And who knoweth, whether he will be a wise man or a fool? yet will he have full sway over all my toil wherein I have toiled, and wherein I have shown myself wise under the sun. Also this is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @ For there is many a man whose toil is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and with energy; yet to a man that hath not toiled therefore must he give it as his portion. Also this is vanity and a great evil.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:22 @ For what doth a man obtain of all his toil, and of the torture of his heart, wherewith he toileth under the sun?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:23 @ For all his days are full of pains, and vexation is his employment: yea, even in the night his heart taketh not rest. Also this is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:24 @ It is not a good thing in man that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy happiness for his toil. Also this have I seen, that it cometh out of the hand of God.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:26 @ For to a man who is good in his presence giveth wisdom, and knowledge, and joy; but to the sinner he giveth employment, to gather up and to bring together, that he may give it to him that is good before God. Also this is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:1 @ For every thing there is a season; and a time is for every pursuit under the heavens.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:12 @ I know that there is nothing good in them, but for every one to rejoice and to do what is good during his life.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:13 @ For also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy what is good for all his toil, is likewise a gift of God.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:14 @ I know that whatsoever God doth, that will be for ever; to it nothing can be added, and from it there is nothing to be diminished: and God hath so made it, that men should be afraid of him.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:15 @ That which hath been hath long since appeared; and what is to be hath already been; and God seeketh that which is sped away.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:17 @ I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time for every pursuit; and on account of every deed there.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:19 @ For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even the same thing befalleth them; as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one kind of spirit: so that the preeminence of man above the beast is nought; for all is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @ And so did I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion; for who can bring him to look with pleasure on what will be after him?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:2 @ Thereupon praised I the dead that are already dead, more than the living who are still alive;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:3 @ And as happier than both of them, him who hath not yet come into being, who hath not seen the evil–doing that is done under the sun.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Again, I beheld all the toil, and all the energy in doing, that it is the envy of one man of his neighbor. Also this is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:5 @ The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:6 @ Better is a handful of quiet, than both the hands full of toil and torture of spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @ There is one alone, and he hath not a companion; yea, he hath neither son nor brother: yet is there no end to all his toil; his eye also is not satisfied with riches. Yet for whom do I toil, and deprive my soul of good? Also this is vanity, yea, it is a bad employment.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:10 @ For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to the single one that falleth; for he hath no companion to lift him up.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:13 @ Better is a poor and a wise youth than an old and foolish king, who knoweth not how to be admonished any more.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:14 @ For out of the prison cometh the one to reign: whereas also in his kingdom the other becometh poor.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:15 @ I have seen all the living who walk under the sun, being with the second child that is to stand up in his stead.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @ There was no end to all the people, to all that have been before them: they also that come after will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a torture of the spirit.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is great on men:

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:2 @ a man to whom God hath given riches, property, and honor, and nothing is wanting for his soul of all that he longeth for: yet God empowereth him not to eat thereof, but a stranger will consume it. This is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:3 @ If a man were to beget a hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years were many, and his soul were not satisfied with what is good, and he have not had even a burial: then do I say, that an untimely birth is better than he.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:5 @ Moreover it never saw the sun, and knew nothing: this hath more rest than the other.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:7 @ All the toil of a man is for his mouth; and yet is his desire never filled.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:8 @ For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:9 @ Better is what one seeth with the eyes than the wandering of the desire. Also this is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ That which hath been is already called by its name, and it is known that he is a man: and he is not able to contend with him that is mightier than he.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:12 @ For who knoweth what is good for man in this life, the number of the days of his vain life, that he should spend them as a shadow? for who can tell a man what will be after him under the sun?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name is better than precious oil, and the day of death, better than the day of one’s birth.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:2 @ It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting; inasmuch as that is the end of all men: and let the living lay it to his heart.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:3 @ Better is vexation than laughing; for through the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:4 @ The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of joy.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:5 @ It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than that a man should hear the song of fools.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:6 @ For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool. Also this is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:7 @ For oppression maketh a wise man mad; and bribery corrupteth the heart.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:8 @ Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: better is the patient in spirit than the proud in spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:10 @ Thou must not say, How was it that the former days were better than these? for it is not out of wisdom that thou askest concerning this.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:11 @ Wisdom is better than an inheritance, yea, preferable for those that see the sun;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:12 @ For under the shadow of wisdom under the shadow of money; but the superior excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to him that possesseth it.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @ On the day of prosperity be happy, but on the day of adversity look on: also this hath God made in equal measure with the other, to the end that man should not find the least to censure him.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is many a righteous man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is many a wicked man that liveth long in his wickedness.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:16 @ Be not righteous over much; neither show thyself over wise: why wouldst thou destroy thyself?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:18 @ It is good that thou shouldst take hold of that, and that also from this thou withdraw not thy hand; for he that feareth God will come forth out of them all.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:19 @ Wisdom giveth more strength to the wise than ten rulers which were in the city.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:20 @ For no man is so righteous upon earth, that he should do always good, and never sin.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @ For oftentimes also doth thy own heart know that thou thyself likewise hast cursed others.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:23 @ All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:24 @ Far is what formerly was so, and what was deep remaineth deep: who can find it out?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ Then I turned myself about together with my heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and experience, and to know the wickedness of folly, and the foolishness of madness.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:26 @ And I find as more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and whose hands are bonds: he that is deemed good before God will escape from her; but the sinner will be caught by her.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:27 @ Behold, this have I found, saith Koheleth, one to the other, to find experience,

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:29 @ Lo, this only did I find, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought for many devices.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:1 @ Who is like the wise? and who knoweth the explanation of a thing? a man’s wisdom enlighteneth his face, and the boldness of his face will be lessened.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:3 @ Be not hasty to go out of his presence; engage not in an evil thing; for whatsoever pleaseth him, can he do;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:4 @ Because the word of a king is powerful; and who may say unto him, What doest thou?––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:5 @ Whoso keepeth the commandment will experience no evil thing: and a wise man’s heart knoweth both time and the just consequence.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @ Because for every pursuit there is a time and a just consequence; for the evil of man heavily upon him.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ No man hath control over the spirit to detain the spirit; and there is no control over the day of death; and there is no representation in that war; and wickedness will not deliver those that practise it.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this have I seen, and directed my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time when one man ruleth over another to his own injury.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ Then also did I see the wicked buried, who had gone to their rest; but those who had acted correctly had to go away from the holy place, and were forgotten in the city. Also this is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:11 @ Because the punishment against evil deeds is not executed speedily, therefore is the heart of the sons of men filled up in them to do evil.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ But let a sinner do evil a hundred times, and withhold long his punishment from him; still do I truly know for certain that it will be well with those that fear God, because they are afraid of him;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:13 @ And that it will not be well with the wicked, and that he will not endure many days, like the shadow; because he is not afraid of God.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @ There is a vanity which is done upon the earth, that there are righteous men, unto whom it happeneth in accordance with the deeds of the wicked; again, there are wicked men, to whom it happeneth in accordance with the deeds of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @ Therefore do I praise joyfulness, that there is nothing better for man under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be joyful; for this will adhere to him in his toil, during the days of his life which God hath given him under the sun.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to see the employment that is done upon the earth, how even neither by day nor by night sleep is seen in the eyes of some men:

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:17 @ Then did I see the whole work of God, that a man is not able to find out the work that is done under the sun; inasmuch as though a man were to toil to seek for it, he would yet not find it; and even if the wise were to think to know it, he would yet not be able to find it.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @ For all this did I reflect over in my heart and to explain all this, that the righteous, and the wise, and their services, are in the hand of God: that man knoweth neither love nor hatred; it is all before them;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ Every thing as it is to happen to all; there is but one occurrence for the righteous, and for the wicked; for the good and for the clean, and for the unclean; and for him that sacrificeth, and for him that sacrificeth not; as is the good, so is the sinner; he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @ This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one occurrence for all, and that also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and that madness is in their heart while they live, and after this they go to the dead.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:4 @ For whoever is yet united with all the living hath still hope; for a living dog fareth better than a dead lion.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:5 @ For the living know that they will die; but the dead know not the least; nor have they longer any reward; for their memory is forgotten.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:6 @ Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, are now already lost; and they will have never more a portion in all that is done under the sun.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @ Enjoy life with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which God hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity; for this is thy portion in this life, and in thy toil with which thou toilest under the sun.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:10 @ Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do with thy might, that do; for there is no work, nor experience, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the nether world, whither thou goest.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @ I turned about, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the mighty; and that also the wise have no bread, nor yet the men of understanding riches, nor yet men of knowledge favor; but time and fate will overtake them all.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @ For man also knoweth not his time, like the fishes that are caught in an evil net, and like the birds that are caught in the snare: like these are the sons of men ensnared at an evil time, when it falleth upon them suddenly.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ Also in this manner have I seen wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great unto me:

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:15 @ But there was found in it a poor wise man, and he delivered the city by his wisdom; yet no man had thought of that same poor man.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:16 @ Then said I, Wisdom is better than might: although the poor man’s wisdom is held in contempt, and his words are not heard.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:17 @ The words of wise men heard in quiet are better than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:18 @ Wisdom is better than weapons of war; but one sinner causes much good to be lost.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ Dead flies cause the precious oil of the apothecary to become stinking and foaming; so doth a little folly him that is valued for wisdom and honor.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:2 @ The heart of a wise man is at his right hand; but the heart of a fool is at his left.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ Yea also, on whatever way the fool walketh, doth he lack proper sense, and he saith to all that he is a fool.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:4 @ If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for submissiveness causeth great offences to be avoided.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, like an error which proceedeth from the ruler:

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:6 @ Folly is set in great high places, and the rich sit in lowness.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the iron be blunt, and man do not whet the edge, then must he exert more strength; but the advantage of making it properly sharp is wisdom.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:11 @ If the serpent do bite because no one uttered a charm, then hath the man that can use his tongue no preference.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:12 @ The words of a wise man’s mouth grace; but the lips of a fool will destroy himself.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:13 @ The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; and the last that cometh out of his mouth is evil–bringing madness.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:8 @ And left is the daughter of Zion as a hut in a vineyard, as a lodge in a cucumber field, as a besieged city.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:9 @ Unless the Lord of hosts had left unto us a remnant ever so small, like Sodom should we have been, unto Gomorrah should we have been compared.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:10 @ Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom: give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:11 @ For what serveth me the multitude of your sacrifices? saith the Lord: I am sated with the burnt–offerings of rams, and the fat of fatted beasts; and the blood of bullocks, and of sheep, and of he–goats, I do not desire.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:12 @ When ye come to appear in my presence––who hath required this at your hand, to tread down my courts?

lesserot@Isaiah:1:13 @ Continue no more to bring an oblation of deceit; incense of abomination is it unto me: new moon and sabbath, the calling of assemblies––I cannot bear misdeed with festive gathering.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:14 @ Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth; they are become a burden unto me; I am weary to bear them,

lesserot@Isaiah:1:15 @ And when ye spread forth your hands, I will withdraw my eyes from you; yea, when ye make ever so many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:16 @ Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your deeds from before my eyes; cease to do evil;

lesserot@Isaiah:1:17 @ Learn to do well; seek for justice, relieve the oppressed, do justice to the fatherless, plead for the widow.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:22 @ Thy silver is become dross, thy wine is drugged with water;

lesserot@Isaiah:1:23 @ Thy princes are rebels, and companions of thieves; every one loveth brides, and runneth after rewards; to the fatherless they will not do justice, and the cause of the widow doth not come unto them.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:24 @ Therefore saith the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will take satisfaction on my adversaries, and be avenged on my enemies.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:25 @ And I will turn my hand against thee, and purge away as with lye thy dross, and remove all thy tin:

lesserot@Isaiah:2:3 @ And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; that he may teach us of his ways, and we may walk in his paths; for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord out of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:4 @ And he will judge among the nations, and decide for many people; and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning–knives: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, and they shall not learn any more war.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:5 @ O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:6 @ For thou hast abandoned thy people, the house of Jacob, because they are full of more than the east, and are soothsayers like the Philistines, and with the children of strangers they unite themselves.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:7 @ And full became their land of silver and gold, and there is no end to their treasures; and full became their land of horses, and there is no end to their chariots;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:8 @ And full became their land of idols; to the work of their own hands they bow themselves, to what their own fingers have made.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:9 @ And so is bent down the son of earth, and humbled the man; and thou wilt not forgive them.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:10 @ Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:11 @ The looks of human pride shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bent down: and exalted shall be the Lord alone on that day.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:12 @ For there is a day unto the Lord of hosts over every proud and lofty one; and over every exalted one, that he be brought low;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:13 @ And over all the cedars of the Lebanon, the high and exalted, and over all the oaks of Bashan;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:14 @ And over all the high mountains, and over all the exalted hills;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:15 @ And over every high tower, and over every fortified wall;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:16 @ And over all the ships of Tharshish; and over all desirable palaces.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:19 @ And men shall enter into the caverns of rocks, and into the rifts of the earth, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to terrify the earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:20 @ On that day shall a man cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which have been made for him to worship, to the moles and to the bats;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:21 @ To enter into the clefts of the rocks, and into the hollows of the cliffs, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to terrify the earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:4 @ And I will set up boys as their princes, and children shall rule over them.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:6 @ When a man will seize hold on his brother in the house of his father, Thou hast a garment, thou shalt be our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand:

lesserot@Isaiah:3:7 @ He will swear on that day, saying, I will not be a chief; and in my house is neither bread nor clothing; you shall not appoint me a ruler of the people.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:8 @ For Jerusalem is sunk to decay, and Judah is fallen; because their tongue and their doings are against the Lord, to incense the eyes of his glory.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:9 @ The boldness of their face testifieth against them; and like Sodom they tell openly their sin, they conceal it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have prepared evil unto themselves.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:10 @ Say ye to the righteous, that he hath done well; for the fruit of their doings shall they eat.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:11 @ Woe unto the wicked who doeth evil; for the recompense of his hands shall be bestowed on him.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:13 @ The Lord is stepped forth to plead, and standeth up to judge the people.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:14 @ The Lord will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and their princes; but ye––ye have eaten up the vineyard; the plunder of the poor is in your houses.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:15 @ What mean ye that ye crush my people, and grind down the faces of the poor? saith the Lord the Eternal of hosts.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:16 @ And the Lord said, Forasmuch as the daughters of Zion are proud, and walk with stretched forth necks and casting about their eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:

lesserot@Isaiah:3:17 @ Therefore will the Lord smite with leprosy the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will lay open their nakedness.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:18 @ On that day will the Lord take away the beauty of their tinkling shoe–buckles, and the hair–nets, and the crescent–shaped ornaments,

lesserot@Isaiah:3:19 @ The drops, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,

lesserot@Isaiah:3:20 @ The bonnets, and the foot–chains, and the head–bands, and the tablets, and the earrings,

lesserot@Isaiah:3:21 @ The finger–rings, and nose–jewels,

lesserot@Isaiah:3:22 @ The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the shawls, and the pockets.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:23 @ The mirrors, and the chemisettes, and the turbans, and the long vails.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:24 @ And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be corruption; and instead of a girdle a rope; and instead of curled hair baldness; and instead of a wide garment a girding of sackcloth, a mark of burning instead of beauty.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:25 @ Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty ones in the war.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:26 @ And then shall her gates lament and mourn; and stript of all shall she sit upon the ground.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:1 @ And seven women shall take hold of one man on that day, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, take but away our reproach.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:2 @ On that day shall the sprout of the Lord be for ornament and for honor, and the fruit of the land for excellence and for glory for the escaped of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:3 @ And it shall come to pass, that whoever is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, every one that is written down unto life in Jerusalem:

lesserot@Isaiah:4:4 @ When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have scoured away the blood–guiltiness of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of destruction.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:5 @ And then will the Lord create upon every dwelling of mount Zion, and upon her places of assembly, a cloud and smoke by day, and the brightness of a flaming fire by night; for over all the glory shall be a covering.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:6 @ And a tabernacle shall it be for a shade in the daytime from the heat, and for a refuge, and for a covert from tempest and from rain.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:1 @ I will sing now for my beloved, the song of my dear one touching his vineyard. A vineyard had my beloved on a rich hill–top;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:2 @ And he fenced it in, and cleared it of stones, and planted it with the choicest vines, and built a tower in its midst, and also a winepress he hewed out therein: and he hoped that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth worthless fruit.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:3 @ And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, between me and my vineyard.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:4 @ What more was to be done to my vineyard, that I had not done in it? Why then did I hope that it should bring forth grapes, while it brought forth worthless fruit?

lesserot@Isaiah:5:5 @ And now I will let you know also what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be eaten off; I will break down its wall, and it shall be trodden down;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:6 @ And I will lay it quite waste; it shall not be pruned, nor hoed around; and it shall be overgrown with briers and thorns; and the clouds will I command that they send down no rain upon it.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:7 @ For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of his delight: and he hoped for justice, but behold injustice; for equity, but behold iniquity.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:8 @ Woe unto those that cause house to join on house, bring field near to field, till there is no more room, so that ye may be left alone as the inhabitants in the midst of the land!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:9 @ In my ears the Lord of hosts, Truly many houses shall become desolate, yea, great and beautiful ones without an inhabitant.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:10 @ Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a chomer–seed shall yield an ephah.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:11 @ Woe unto those that rise up early in the morning, that they may run after strong drink; that continue until late in the twilight, till wine inflame them!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:12 @ And there are harp and psaltery, tambourine and flute, and wine at their drinking–feasts; but the deeds of the Lord they regard not, and the works of his hands they behold not.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:13 @ Therefore are my people led into exile, for want of knowledge: and their honorable men suffer of famine, and their multitude are panting with thirst.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:14 @ Therefore hath the deep enlarged her desire, and opened her mouth without measure: and there descend glory, and her multitude, and her noise, and whoever rejoiced therein.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:15 @ And bent down shall be the son of earth, and humbled shall be the man, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:16 @ And the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy God shall be sanctified by righteousness.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:17 @ Then shall the sheep feed according to their wont, and the ruins of the fat ones shall sojourners eat.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:18 @ Woe unto those that draw iniquity with the cords of falsehood, and as with a wagon–rope, sinfulness;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:19 @ That say, Let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it: and let draw nigh and come the counsel of the Holy One of Israel, that we may know it!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:20 @ Woe unto those that say of the evil it is good, and of the good it is evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:21 @ Woe unto those that are wise in their own eyes, and intelligent in their own esteem!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:22 @ Woe unto those that are heroes to drink wine, and men of might to mingle strong drink;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:23 @ Who justify the wicked in lieu of a bribe, and who deprive the righteous of their right!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:24 @ Therefore as the tongue of the fire devoureth the stubble, and dry hay sinketh before the flame: so shall their root be as rotten things, and their blossom shall fly up as the dust; because they have despised the law of the Lord of hosts, and the word of the Holy One of Israel they have rejected.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:25 @ For this cause is kindled the anger of the Lord against his people, and he stretcheth forth his hand against them, and he smiteth them; and the mountains tremble, and their carcasses lie like sweepings in the midst of the streets: with all this his anger is not turned away, but still is his hand stretched out.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:26 @ And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from afar, and will call for one of them from the end of the earth; and, behold, with speed, swiftly, it cometh;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:27 @ There is none weary, nor stumbling among its men; it slumbereth not, it sleepeth not; not loosened is the girdle of its loins, not broken is the latchet of its shoes;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:28 @ Whose arrows are sharpened, and all whose bows are bent; its horses hoofs are hard like the flint, and its wheels like the whirlwind;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:29 @ It hath a roar like the lioness, it roareth like the young lions: yea, it growleth, and layeth hold of the prey, and carrieth it safely off, with none to deliver.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:30 @ And it will rage against them on that day like with the raging of the sea: and if one look unto the earth, behold, there is darkness, oppression, and the light is darkened through the darkness of its clouds.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:1 @ In the year of king ‘Uzziyahu’s death I saw the Lord sitting upon a high and exalted throne, and his train filled the temple.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:2 @ Seraphim were standing around him, each one had six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two did he fly.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:3 @ And one called unto the other, and said, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:4 @ And the posts of the threshold shook at the voice of those that called aloud, and the house was filled with smoke.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:5 @ And I said, Woe is me! for I am lost; because a man of unclean lips am I, and in the midst of a people of unclean lips do I dwell; for the King, the Lord of hosts have my eyes seen.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:6 @ Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, and in his hand was a live coal, with the tongs had he taken it from off the altar:

lesserot@Isaiah:6:7 @ And he touched therewith upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thy iniquity is departed, and thy sin is forgiven.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:8 @ And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? And I said, Here am I: send me.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:9 @ And he said, Go, and say unto this people, Hear indeed, but understand not; and see indeed, but know not.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:10 @ Obdurate will remain the heart of this people, and their ears will be heavy, and their eyes will be shut: so that they will not see with their eyes, nor hear with their ears, nor their hearts be understanding, so that they be converted, and healing be granted them.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:11 @ And I said, How long, O Lord? And he said, Until that cities be left waste without an inhabitant, and houses without man, and the soil be made desolate as a wilderness,

lesserot@Isaiah:6:12 @ And the Lord will have removed far away the men, and the depopulation be great in the midst of the land.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:13 @ And should a tenth part thereof yet remain, it will again be swept away: like the terebinth and the oak, which, when they cast their leaves, retain their stems, so remaineth the holy seed, its stem.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:1 @ And it came to pass in the days of Achaz the son of Jotham, the son of ‘Uzziyahu, the king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekach the son of Remalyahu, the king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it; but were not able to make an attack upon it.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:2 @ And it was told unto the house of David, saying, Syria is encamped with Ephraim; and his heart trembled, with the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are shaken before the wind.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:3 @ And the Lord said unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Achaz, thou with Shear–yashub thy son, to the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the highway of the washer’s field;

lesserot@Isaiah:7:4 @ And thou shalt say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, and let thy heart not become faint because of these two stumps of smoking firebrands, before the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remalyahu.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:5 @ Forasmuch as Syria, Ephraim and the son of Remalyahu, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:7:6 @ Let us go up against Judah, and besiege it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set up as king in the midst of it the son of Tabeal:

lesserot@Isaiah:7:7 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, It shall not succeed, and it shall not come to pass.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:8 @ For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin: and within sixty and five years shall Ephraim be broken, to be no more a people.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:9 @ And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remalyahu’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not have permanence.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:10 @ And the Lord continued to speak unto Achaz, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:7:11 @ Ask thee a sign from the Lord thy God; ask it in the depth, or high up above.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:12 @ But Achaz said, I will not ask, and I will not tempt the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:13 @ And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David! Is it too little for you to weary men, that ye will weary also my God?

lesserot@Isaiah:7:14 @ Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: behold, this young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and she shall call his name ‘Immanu–el,.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:15 @ Cream and honey shall he eat, so soon as he knoweth to refuse the evil, and to choose the good.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:16 @ For before yet the child shall know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good, shall be forsaken the land, of the kings of which thou feelest dread.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:17 @ The Lord will bring over thee, and over thy people, and over thy father’s house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim withdrew from Judah,––the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:18 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that the Lord will call for the fly that is in the uttermost end of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:19 @ And they shall come, and shall encamp, all of them, in the desolate valleys, and in the clefts of the rocks, and upon all thorn–hedges, and upon all bushes.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:20 @ On the same day will the Lord shave with the razor that is hired, from among those on the other side of the river, with the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and also the beard shall it entirely remove.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:21 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that a man shall nourish one young cow, and two sheep;

lesserot@Isaiah:7:22 @ And it shall happen, that for the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat cream; for cream and honey shall eat every one that is left in the midst of the land.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:23 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that every place, where there are a thousand vines worth a thousand silver shekels, shall be,––yea, this shall be to briers and thorns.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:24 @ With arrows and with bows shall men enter thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:25 @ And all mountains that are worked with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: and they shall serve for the pasture of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:1 @ And the Lord said unto me, Take thyself a large table, and write on it with distinct letters, Lemaher–shalal–chash–bas.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:2 @ And I was to summon for myself trustworthy witnesses, Uriyah the priest, and Zecharyahu the son of Yeberechyahu.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:3 @ And I came near unto the prophetess; and she conceived, and bore a son. Then said the Lord to me, Call his name Maher–shalal–chash–bas.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:4 @ For before yet the boy shall know to call, My father, and my mother, the wealth of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be carried away before the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:5 @ And the Lord continued to speak unto me again, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:8:6 @ Forasmuch as this people despiseth the waters of Shiloach that flow softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remalyahu’s son:

lesserot@Isaiah:8:7 @ Yea therefore behold, the Lord bringeth up over them the strong and many waters of the river,––the king of Assyria, and all his glory; and he shall come up over all his channels, and step over all his banks;

lesserot@Isaiah:8:8 @ And he shall penetrate into Judah, overflow and flood over, even to the neck shall he reach; and his outstretched wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O ‘Immanu–el.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:9 @ Associate yourselves, O ye people, yet shall ye be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of the far portions of the earth: gird yourselves, yet shall ye be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, yet shall ye be broken in pieces.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:10 @ Take counsel together, yet shall it come to naught; speak the word, and it shall not stand firm; for with us is God.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:11 @ For thus said the Lord to me with the strength of prophecy, and warned me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:8:12 @ Call ye not a conspiracy all that this people may call a conspiracy, and what it feareth shall ye not fear, and be not terrified.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:13 @ The Lord of hosts, him shall ye sanctify; and let him be your fear, and let him be your terror.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:14 @ And he will be for a sanctuary; but also for a stone of stumbling and for a rock to fall over unto both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:15 @ And many shall stumble over them, and fall, and be broken, and snared, and be caught.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:16 @ Bind up the testimony, seal up the law among my disciples.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:17 @ And I will wait for the Lord, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will hope for him.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:18 @ Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me are for signs and for tokens in Israel, from the Lord of hosts who dwelleth on mount Zion.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:19 @ And when they shall say unto you, "Inquire of those that have familiar spirits, and of the wizards, that whisper, and that mutter:" should not a people inquire of their God? in behalf of the living of the dead?

lesserot@Isaiah:8:20 @ to the law and to the testimony: if they are not to speak according to this word, in which there is no light.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:21 @ And the shall pass through, hard oppressed and hungry: and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungry, they will become enraged, and curse their king and their god, and turn toward on high.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:22 @ And they will look unto the earth; and behold there are trouble and darkness, dimness of oppression, and they shall be scattered into obscurity.

lesserot@Isaiah:25:8 @ He will destroy death to eternity: and the Lord Eternal will wipe away the tear from off all faces; and the shame of his people will he remove from off all the earth; for the Lord hath spoken it.

lesserot@Isaiah:25:9 @ And men will say on that day, Lo, this is our God, for whom we have waited that he would help us; this is the Lord for whom we have waited, we will be glad and we will rejoice in his salvation.

lesserot@Isaiah:25:10 @ For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain, and Moab shall be trodden down on his own place, even as straw is trodden down upon the dunghill.

lesserot@Isaiah:25:11 @ And he will spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as the swimmer spreadeth them forth to swim: and he will bring down his pride together with the joints of his hands.

lesserot@Isaiah:25:12 @ And the fortress of the stronghold of thy walls he bringeth down, layeth low, casteth it to the ground, even to the dust.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:1 @ On that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah: A strong city have we; his aid will he grant as walls and defence.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:2 @ Open ye the gates, that there may enter in the righteous nation which guardeth the truth.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:3 @ The confiding mind wilt thou keep in perfect peace; because he trusteth in thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:4 @ Trust ye in the Lord unto eternity; for in Yah the Lord is everlasting protection.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:5 @ For he bendeth down the dwellers of the height; the lofty fortress––he layeth it low; he layeth it low, along the ground; he casteth it down to the dust.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:6 @ The foot shall tread it down, the feet of the poor, the steps of the needy.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:7 @ The path of the just is straight: thou, most upright, dost ever level the road of the just.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:8 @ Yea, on the path of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee; for thy name, and for the remembrance of thee, was the longing of our soul.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:9 @ In my soul have I longed for thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek for thee; for when thy judgments are on the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:10 @ If favor be shown to the wicked, he will not learn righteousness; in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not regard the majesty of the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:11 @ Lord, thy hand was raised high, but they would not see: oh that they might see, and be ashamed, zeal for the people; yea, the fire which shall devour them––thy enemies.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:12 @ Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us; for also all our works hast thou accomplished for us.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:13 @ O Lord our God, lords have had dominion over us beside thee; of thee only would we make mention,––of thy name.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:14 @ dead, they will not live; departed, they will not rise; therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made to perish every memorial of them.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:15 @ Thou hast done more for the nation, O Lord, thou hast done more for the nation; thou hast glorified thyself: thou hast enlarged all the ends of the earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:16 @ Lord, in trouble have they sought thee, they poured out earnest prayers when thy chastening was upon them.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:17 @ Like as a pregnant woman, that is near giving birth, is in pain, crieth out in her pangs: so have we been in thy presence, O Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:18 @ We have been pregnant and in pain, as though we brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the land; and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:19 @ Thy dead shall live, my dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing ye, that dwell in the dust; for a dew on herbs is thy dew, and the earth shall cast out the departed.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:20 @ Go, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy door behind thee: hide thyself but for a little moment, until the indignation be passed away.

lesserot@Isaiah:26:21 @ For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to visit the iniquity of the inhabitants of the earth on them: and the earth shall disclose her blood, and shall no more be a cover over her slain.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:1 @ On that day will the Lord punish with his heavy and great and strong sword leviathan the flying serpent, and leviathan the crooked servant; and he will slay the crocodile that is in the sea.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:2 @ On that day sing ye a song of the vineyard of excellent wine.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:3 @ "I the Lord do keep it; every moment will I water it: that no one shall hurt it, night and day will I keep it.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:4 @ Wrath have I not: who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle? I would pass through them, and I would burn them altogether.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:5 @ If he but take hold of my strength, make peace with me; make peace with me."

lesserot@Isaiah:27:6 @ In the future shall Jacob yet take root; Israel shall bud and blossom, and shall fill the face of the world with fruit.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:7 @ Hath he smitten him, as he smote the one that smote him? or was he slain with the same slaughter as those of him that were slain?

lesserot@Isaiah:27:8 @ In measure, by driving him forth, thou strivest with him: he removed him with his violent storm on the day of the east wind.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:9 @ Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be atoned; and this shall be all the fruit of the taking away of his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as limestones that are beaten in pieces, when there shall not arise again any groves and sun–images.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:10 @ For the fortified city shall be desolate, the habitation be forsaken, and left like a wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall it lie down, and consume its branches.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:11 @ When its boughs are withered, they shall be broken off; women will come and set them on fire; for it is not a people of understanding; therefore he that made it will not have mercy on it, and he that formed it will show it no favor.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:12 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that the Lord will beat off from the channel of the River up to the brook of Egypt; but ye shall be gathered up one by one, ye children of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:27:13 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that the great cornet shall be blown, and then shall come those who are lost in the land of Asshur, and those who are outcasts in the land of Egypt, and they shall prostrate themselves before the Lord on the holy mount at Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:1 @ Woe to the crown of pride, of the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower of his glorious ornament, which is on the eminence of the fat valley of those who are struck down by wine!

lesserot@Isaiah:28:2 @ Behold, mighty and strong from the Lord, as a tempest of hail, a storm of destruction; as a tempest of mighty overflowing waters, will he cast it down to the earth with force.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:3 @ Under feet shall be trodden the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim:

lesserot@Isaiah:28:4 @ And the fading flower of his glorious ornament, which is on the eminence of the fat valley, shall be as its early ripe fruit before the summer; which one, when he just seeth it, while it is scarcely in his hand, hastily devoureth.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:5 @ On that day will the Lord of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people,

lesserot@Isaiah:28:6 @ And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to those that drive back the battle to the gate.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:7 @ But these also are now stumbling through wine, and reeling through strong drink: priest and prophet are stumbling through strong drink, they are overpowered with wine, they reel through strong drink; they stumble in vision, they are unsteady in giving judgment.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:8 @ For all tables are full of vomit of filthiness, there is no place.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:9 @ Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he give to understand doctrine? those that are weaned from the milk, those that are taken from the breasts.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:10 @ For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:11 @ For with stammering lips and a foreign tongue will he speak to this people;

lesserot@Isaiah:28:12 @ When he said unto them, This is the rest, cause ye the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing; but they would not hear.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:13 @ Therefore shall be unto them the word of the Lord, precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; in order that they may go, and stumble backward, and be broken, and snared, and caught.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:14 @ Therefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, who rule this people that is in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:15 @ Because ye have said, "We have entered into a covenant with death, and with the nether world have we made an agreement; the overflowing scourge, when it passeth by, shall not come at us; for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we sought a hiding–place."

lesserot@Isaiah:28:16 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I have laid in Zion as a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner–stone, well founded: he that believeth will not make haste.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:17 @ And I will make of justice a measuring line, and of righteousness a plummet: and the hail shall sweep off the refuge of lies, and the hiding–place against the waters shall these flood away.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:18 @ And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with the nether world shall not have permanence; the overflowing scourge, when it passeth by––then shall ye be trodden down by it.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:19 @ As often as it passeth by shall it take you; for morning by morning shall it pass by, by day and by night; and the mere understanding of the report shall cause terror.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:20 @ For the bed shall be too short for to stretch himself out: and the covering too narrow to wrap himself in.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:21 @ For as on mount Perazim will the Lord rise up, as in the valley of Gib’on will he be wroth, that he may do his work, his singular work; and to accomplish his labor, his strange labor.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:22 @ And now be ye no longer scornful, lest your bonds be made strong; for as completed and fully decreed have I heard it from the Lord Eternal of hosts over all the earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:23 @ Give ye ear, and hear my voice; listen, and hear my speech.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:24 @ Doth the ploughman plough all the time to sow? doth he open and harrow his ground?

lesserot@Isaiah:28:25 @ Is it not so? that, when he hath made level its surface he scattereth fennel, and streweth about cumin, and planteth the wheat in rows, and barley on its assigned, and millet on its proper spot?

lesserot@Isaiah:28:26 @ For his God instructed him rightly, taught him.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:27 @ Truly not with a threshing instrument is fennel threshed, and a wagon–wheel is not turned about upon cumin; but fennel is beaten out with a staff, and cumin with a stick.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:28 @ Bread–corn is crushed; but not for ever doth keep threshing it; and though he drive over it the wheel of his wagon and his horses, he will not crush it.

lesserot@Isaiah:28:29 @ This also cometh forth from the Lord of hosts; wonderful is he in counsel, and excellent in wise deeds.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:1 @ Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the town where David dwelt! add ye year to year; let the festivals come round in order;

lesserot@Isaiah:29:2 @ Yet will I distress Ariel, and there shall be groaning and wailing: and it shall be unto me like Ariel.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:3 @ And I will encamp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with hostile posts, and I will raise up entrenchments against thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:4 @ And brought down low, shalt thou speak out of the earth, and out of the dust shall come forth thy speech; and like one of a familiar spirit out of the earth shall be thy voice, and out of the dust shalt thou whisper forth thy speech.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:5 @ And like the small dust shall be the multitude of thy barbarian enemies, and like the passing chaff the multitude of tyrants; and shall be at unawares, suddenly.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:6 @ From the Lord of hosts shall the visitation come with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the devouring flame of fire.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:7 @ And as a dream of a night–vision shall be the multitude of all the nations that go to war against Ariel, even all that fight against her and raise towers against her, and that distress her.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:8 @ And it shall even be as when a hungry man dreameth, that, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty; or as when a thirsty man dreameth, that, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul yet longeth: so shall it be with the multitude of all the nations, that go to war against mount Zion.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:9 @ Stay but still and wonder; turn your eyes away, and be blinded; they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:10 @ For the Lord hath poured out over you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets, and your chiefs, the seers, hath he cast a vail.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:11 @ And the vision of every thing is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that can read, saying, Read this, I pray thee; and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:

lesserot@Isaiah:29:12 @ And the book is then delivered to one that cannot read, saying, Read this, I pray thee; and he saith, I cannot read.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:13 @ And the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near with their mouth, and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is but the acquired precept of men;

lesserot@Isaiah:29:14 @ Therefore, behold, I will do yet farther a marvelous work with this people, doing wonder on wonder; so that the wisdom of their wise men shall be lost, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:15 @ Woe unto those that seek to hide deeply their counsel from the Lord, so that their works may be in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?

lesserot@Isaiah:29:16 @ Oh your perverseness! shall the potter be esteemed as the clay? that the work shall say of its maker, He hath not made me? or shall the thing framed say of its framer, He had no understanding?

lesserot@Isaiah:29:17 @ Lo! but yet a very little while more, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest!

lesserot@Isaiah:29:18 @ And on that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and out of obscurity, and out of darkness, shall the eyes of the blind see.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:19 @ And the sufferers shall have abundant joy in the Lord, and the needy among men shall be glad in the Holy One of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:20 @ For the tyrant is no more, and consumed is the scorner, and cut off are all that watch for injustice;

lesserot@Isaiah:29:21 @ That cause mankind to sin by word; and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate; and pervert through fraud the cause of the just.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:22 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord unto the house of Jacob, he who hath redeemed Abraham, Not now shall Jacob be ashamed, and not now shall his face be made pale.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:23 @ For when he seeth his children, the work of my hands in the midst of him, how they sanctify my name: then will they sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and the God of Israel will they reverence.

lesserot@Isaiah:29:24 @ They also that were erring in spirit shall acquire understanding, and they that murmured shall obtain instruction.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:1 @ Woe to the rebellious children, saith the Lord, that take counsel, but not from me; and that set themselves a ruler, but not by my spirit, in order that they may add sin to sin:

lesserot@Isaiah:30:2 @ That travel to go down into Egypt, and have not asked my will; to strengthen themselves through the strength of Pharaoh, and to seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt!

lesserot@Isaiah:30:3 @ Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh become your shame, and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt your disgrace.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:4 @ For his princes were at Zo’an, and his ambassadors had reached Chanes.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:5 @ They all are ashamed because of a people that cannot profit them, neither be a help nor give profit; but shame, and also a reproach.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:6 @ The doom of the beasts of the south: Through the land of trouble and anguish, whence come the lioness and the lion, the viper and flying dragons, they will carry upon the shoulders of young asses their riches, and upon the humps of camels their treasures, to a people that cannot profit.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:7 @ And the Egyptians will help in vain, and to no purpose; therefore have I called this, Boasters they are in sitting still.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:8 @ Now go, write it before them on a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the latest time to come, for ever, and to eternity:

lesserot@Isaiah:30:9 @ For this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the Lord:

lesserot@Isaiah:30:10 @ Who have said to the seers, Ye shall not see; and to the prophets, Reveal not unto us true things, speak unto us smooth things, reveal deceits;

lesserot@Isaiah:30:11 @ Depart you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, remove from before us the Holy One of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:12 @ Therefore thus hath said the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and lean thereon for aid:

lesserot@Isaiah:30:13 @ Therefore shall this iniquity be to you as a threatening breach, swelling out in a high–towering wall, the fall of which will come unawares, suddenly.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:14 @ And he will break it, as one breaketh a potter’s vessel, dashing it in pieces without sparing it; so that there cannot be found among its fragments a sherd to rake fire from a hearth and to draw water from a pit.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:15 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, the Holy One of Israel, In repose and rest shall ye be helped; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength; and ye would not.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:16 @ And ye said, "No; for upon horses will we flee;" therefore shall ye flee: and, "Upon swift beasts will we ride;" therefore shall your pursuers be swift.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:17 @ One thousand at the threatening of one; at the threatening of five shall ye flee: till ye be left as a pole upon a mountain–top, and as an ensign on a hill.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:18 @ And therefore will the Lord wait, to be gracious unto you, and therefore will he exalt himself, to have mercy upon you; for a God of justice is the Lord: happy are all those that wait for him.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:19 @ For O people of Zion that shall dwell at Jerusalem! thou shalt indeed not weep: he will be surely gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; so soon as he heareth it, he answereth thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:20 @ And the Lord will give you bread adversity, and water oppression; and thy teachers shall not have to hide themselves in a corner any more, but thy eyes shall see thy teachers:

lesserot@Isaiah:30:21 @ And thy ears shall hear the word behind thee, saying, "This is the way, walk ye in it," when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:22 @ And ye will regard as unclean the covering of thy graven idols of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou wilt cast them away as a filthy thing; "Get thee hence," wilt thou say unto them.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:23 @ Then will he give the rain for thy seed, that thou mayest sow in the ground; and bread––the produce of the ground––this shall be fat and nutritious: thy cattle shall feed on that day in extensive pastures.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:24 @ The oxen likewise and the young asses that till the ground shall eat salted provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:25 @ And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every prominent hill, rivulets, streams of waters on the day of the great slaughter, when towers fall.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:26 @ And the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of the seven days, on the day that the Lord bindeth up the broken of his people, and healeth the bruise of their wound.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:27 @ Behold, the name of the Lord cometh from afar, burning is his anger, and heavy the smoke; his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is like a devouring fire;

lesserot@Isaiah:30:28 @ And his breath, like an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to toss the nations with the van of falsehood: and a deceiving bridle on the jaws of the people.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:29 @ shall ye have a song, as in the night when a festival is ushered in, and joy of heart, as when one goeth with the flute to come unto the mountain of the Lord, to the Rock of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:30 @ And the Lord will cause his majestic voice to be heard, and will show the stretching down of his arm, in the indignation of anger, and in the flame of a devouring fire, in flood, and tempest, and stones of hail.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:31 @ For because of the voice of the Lord shall be terrified Asshur, that smote with the rod.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:32 @ And at every passage of the appointed staff which the Lord will let fall on him, there shall be on tambourine and harp; and in the tumult of battles will he fight with them.

lesserot@Isaiah:30:33 @ For already of old is Topheth made ready; also this is prepared for the king––deep and wide; its pile hath fire and wood in plenty, the breath of the Lord, like a stream of sulfur, will kindle it into a flame.

lesserot@Isaiah:31:1 @ Woe to those that go down to Egypt for help; and depend for support on horses, and trust on chariots, because they are many; and on horsemen, because they are very strong; but who turn not unto the Holy One of Israel, and seek not the Lord!

lesserot@Isaiah:31:2 @ Yet he also is wise, and bringeth evil, and taketh not back his words; and riseth up against the house of evil–doers, and against the help of those that work injustice.

lesserot@Isaiah:31:3 @ But the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses are flesh, and not spirit; and the Lord will stretch out his hand, and there shall stumble the helper, and he that is helped shall fall down, and they all shall perish together.

lesserot@Isaiah:31:4 @ For thus hath said the Lord unto me, Just as the lion or the young lion growleth over his prey, against whom is called forth the company of shepherds, of whose voice he is not afraid, and is not depressed because of their multitude: thus will the Lord come down, to fight on mount Zion and on its hill.

lesserot@Isaiah:31:5 @ As fluttering birds, so will the Lord of hosts shield Jerusalem; shielding and delivering; sparing and preserving.

lesserot@Isaiah:31:6 @ Turn ye unto him from whom the children of Israel have deeply revolted.

lesserot@Isaiah:31:7 @ For on that day shall every man despise his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you for a sin.

lesserot@Isaiah:31:8 @ Then shall Asshur fall by the sword of one who is not a man; and the sword of one who is not a son of earth shall devour him; and he shall flee him from the sword, and his young men shall become tributary.

lesserot@Isaiah:31:9 @ And his stronghold shall pass away for fear, and his princes shall be terrified because of the ensign, saith the Lord, who hath a fire in Zion, and a furnace in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:1 @ Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in justice.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:2 @ And every one shall be as a hiding–place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivulets of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a large rock in a languishing land.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:3 @ And the eyes of those that see shall not be blinded again, and the ears of those that hear shall hearken.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:4 @ The heart also of the rash shall be attentive in order to know, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:5 @ The worthless person shall be no more called liberal, and the avaricious man shall not be said to be bountiful.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:6 @ For the worthless person ever speaketh villany, and his heart will work injustice, to practise hypocrisy, and to speak error against the Lord, to leave empty the soul of the hungry, and the drink of the thirsty will he take away.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:7 @ The instruments also of the avaricious man are evil: he deviseth wicked resolves to destroy the poor with words of falsehood, even when the needy speaketh what is right.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:8 @ But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and he ever persisteth by liberal things.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:9 @ Ye careless women rise up, hear my voice; ye daughters that are secure, give ear unto my speech.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:11 @ Tremble, ye careless women; shudder, ye that are secure, strip off your garments and make yourselves bare, and gird upon the loins.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:13 @ Upon the soil of my people thorns and briers shall come up; yea, upon all the houses of joy of the gladsome town.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:14 @ Because the palace is abandoned, the tumult of the city is forsaken; the hill and watch–tower are become dens for a long time, a joyous haunt for wild asses, a pasture for flocks.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:15 @ Until a spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness be changed into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be accounted as a forest.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:16 @ Then shall justice dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness abide in the fruitful field.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:17 @ And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and security for ever.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:18 @ And then shall my people abide in peaceful dwellings, and secure abodes, and in undisturbed resting–places.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:19 @ And it shall spread itself out in the declivity of the forest; and far down in the lowlands shall the city descend.

lesserot@Isaiah:32:20 @ Happy are ye that sow beside all waters, freely sending forth the feet of the ox and the ass.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:1 @ Woe to thee that wastest, while thou wast not wasted; and traitor, while men dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt have made an end of wasting, thou shalt be wasted, and when thou shalt have finished to deal treacherously, men shall deal treacherously with thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:2 @ O Lord, be gracious; we have waited for thee: be thou their support every morning, also our salvation in the time of trouble.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:3 @ At the noise of thunder people fled; when thou liftedst thyself up nations were scattered.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:4 @ And your spoil shall be gathered as the cricket gathereth: as locusts run about, so shall people hasten after it.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:5 @ The Lord is exalted; for he dwelleth on high; he hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:6 @ And the stability of thy times and the strength of thy happiness shall be wisdom and knowledge; the fear of the Lord is his treasure.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:7 @ Behold, their valiant ones cry without: the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:8 @ The highways lie waste, ceased hath the wayfaring traveler: he hath broken the covenant, he despiseth cities, he regardeth not man.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:20 @ Look on Zion, the town of our solemn assemblies; thy eyes shall see Jerusalem as an undisturbed residence, a tent that shall not be struck for removal; not one of the stakes of which shall ever be moved, and all the cords of which shall never be torn loose.

lesserot@Isaiah:33:21 @ But there will the Lord mighty unto us, a place of rivers and streams of ample breadth; wherein no oared galley shall go, and a gallant ship shall not pass thereby.

lesserot@Isaiah:34:2 @ For the indignation of the Lord is over all the nations, and his fury over all their army: he hath devoted them, he hath given them up to the slaughter:

lesserot@Isaiah:34:3 @ And their slain also shall be cast out, and as regardeth their carcasses their stench shall ascend upward, and the mountains shall be melted through their blood.

lesserot@Isaiah:34:4 @ And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together like a book: and all their host shall wither, as the leaf withereth from the vine, and as withering fruit from the fig–tree.

lesserot@Isaiah:34:5 @ For my sword is sated in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon Edom, and upon the people I have devoted to punishment.

lesserot@Isaiah:34:6 @ The sword of the Lord is full of blood, it is enriched with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams; for the Lord hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:1 @ And it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib the king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and seized on them.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:2 @ And the king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to king Hezekiah with a strong army. And he halted by the aqueduct of the upper pool on the highway of the washer’s field.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:3 @ Then came forth unto him Elyakim, the son of Chilkiyahu, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph, the recorder.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:4 @ And Rabshakeh said unto them,––Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherewith thou hast trusted?

lesserot@Isaiah:36:5 @ I have said, but it was only a word uttered with the lips, counsel and strength for the war. Now, on whom didst thou trust, that thou rebelledst against me?

lesserot@Isaiah:36:6 @ Behold, thou trustedst on yon cracked reed–staff, on Egypt; which, if a man lean on it, will enter into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh the king of Egypt to all that trust on him.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:7 @ But if thou shouldst say to me, In the Lord our God have we trusted: is he not the one whose high–places and whose altars Hezekiah hath removed, when he said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar shall ye prostrate yourselves?

lesserot@Isaiah:36:8 @ And now I pray thee, enter into a contest with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:9 @ How then wilt thou turn back the face of a single chieftain of the least of my masters’ servants, while thou hast put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?

lesserot@Isaiah:36:10 @ And now am I come up without the Lord against this land to destroy it? The Lord hath said unto me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:11 @ Then said Elyakim and Shebna and Yoach unto Rabshakeh, Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not to us in the Jewish language, before the ears of the people that are on the wall.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:12 @ But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master then sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? is it not rather to the men who sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own excrements, and drink their own urine with you?

lesserot@Isaiah:36:13 @ Then stood Rabshakeh up, and called out in a loud voice in the Jewish language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:14 @ Thus hath said the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you;

lesserot@Isaiah:36:15 @ Neither let Hezekiah induce you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliver us; this city shall not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:16 @ Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus hath said the king of Assyria, Make a treaty of peace with me, and come out to me; and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig–tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern;

lesserot@Isaiah:36:17 @ Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:18 @ So that Hezekiah may not mislead you, saying, The Lord will deliver us. Have the gods of the nations delivered each his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?

lesserot@Isaiah:36:21 @ But they remained silent, and answered him not a word; for it was the king’s command, saying, Ye shall not answer him.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:22 @ Then came Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, that was superintendent over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent; and they told him the words of Rabshakeh.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:1 @ And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:2 @ And he sent Elyakim, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:3 @ And they said unto him, Thus hath said Hezekiah, A day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of derision is this day; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:4 @ Perhaps the Lord thy God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to blaspheme the living God, and who hath reproached with the words which the Lord thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that is still found here.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:5 @ And the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:6 @ And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus hath said the Lord, Be not afraid because of the words which thou hast heard, with which the boys of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:7 @ Behold, I will put an spirit in him, and when he will hear a rumor, he shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:8 @ And Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:9 @ And he heard it said of Thirhakah the king of Ethiopia, He is come out to fight with thee. And when he had heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:37:10 @ Thus shall ye say to Hezekiah the king of Judah, as followeth, Let not thy God, in whom thou trustest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:11 @ Behold, thou thyself hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands by destroying them utterly: and thou alone shouldst be delivered?

lesserot@Isaiah:37:12 @ Have the gods of the nations which my fathers destroyed delivered them, as Gozan, and Charan, and Rezeph, and the children of ‘Eden, who were in Thelassar?

lesserot@Isaiah:37:13 @ Where is the king of Chamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvayim, of Hena’, and ‘Ivvah?

lesserot@Isaiah:37:14 @ And Hezekiah took the letter out of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the Lord, and spread it out before the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:15 @ And Hezekiah prayed unto the Lord, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:37:16 @ O Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, who dwellest between the cherubim, thou art the God, thou alone, for all the kingdoms of the earth; it is thou who hast made the heavens and earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:17 @ Bend down, O Lord, thy ear, and hear; open, O Lord, thy eye, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he hath sent to blaspheme the living God.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:18 @ Truly, Lord, the kings of Assyria have devastated all the nations, and their land;

lesserot@Isaiah:37:19 @ And they have placed their gods into the fire; for they are no gods, but the work of man’s hands, wood and stone; and these have they destroyed.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:20 @ And now, O Lord our God, save us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord, thou alone.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:21 @ Then sent Isaiah the son of Amoz unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me concerning Sennacherib the king of Assyria:

lesserot@Isaiah:37:22 @ This is the word that the Lord hath spoken over him: She despiseth thee, she laugheth thee to scorn, the virgin daughter of Zion; behind she shaketh her head, the daughter of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:23 @ Whom hast thou blasphemed, and hast thou scorned? and against whom hast thou raised thy voice, and lifted up thy eyes on high? against the Holy One of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:24 @ Through thy servants hast thou blasphemed the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots am I indeed come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down its tall cedars, the choice of its fir–trees: and I will enter into the height of its summit, the forest of its fruitful soil.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:25 @ I have dug, and drunk water; and I will dry up with the sole of my feet all the streams of besieged places.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:26 @ Hadst thou not heard, that in distant ages I had prepared this? in the times of antiquity when I formed it? now have I brought it along, and it came to pass to desolate into ruinous heaps fortified cities.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:27 @ And thus their inhabitants were of short power, they were discouraged and confounded: they were as the herbs of the field, and as the green grass; as the moss on the housetops, and as corn blasted before the ear appeareth.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:28 @ But thy abiding, and thy going out, and thy coming in do I know, and thy raging against me.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:29 @ Because of thy raging against me, and thy tumult, that is come up into my ears, will I put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle between thy lips, and I will cause thee to turn back on the way by which thou camest.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:30 @ And this shall be unto thee the sign, Ye shall eat this year what groweth of itself, and in the second year what springeth after the same; and in the third year sow, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:31 @ And the remnant of the house of Judah that is escaped shall yet strike root downward, and bear fruit upward.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:32 @ For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and that which escapeth out of Mount Zion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:33 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, and he shall not shoot an arrow thereon, nor come before it with shields, nor cast up an embankment against it.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:34 @ On the way by which he came, by the same shall he return, and into this city shall he not come, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:35 @ And I will shield this city to save it for my own sake, and for the sake of David my servant.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:36 @ Then went out an angel of the Lord, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians one hundred and eighty and five thousand men; and when people arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:37 @ And Sennacherib the king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:38 @ And it came to pass, as he was prostrating himself in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Essar–chaddon his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:1 @ In those days Hezekiah fell sick unto death; and there came unto him Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet, and said unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Give thy charge to thy house; for thou shalt die, and not live.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:2 @ Then did Hezekiah turn his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:3 @ And he said, O Lord, I beseech thee remember now that I have walked before thee in truth, and with an undivided heart, and have done what is good in thy eyes. And Hezekiah wept aloud.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:4 @ Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:38:5 @ Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:6 @ And out of the hand of the king of Assyria will I deliver thee and this city; and I will shield this city.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:7 @ And this shall be unto thee the sign from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing which he hath spoken:

lesserot@Isaiah:38:8 @ Behold, I will cause the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down on the dial of Achaz by the sun, to return backward ten degrees. So the sun returned ten degrees, by the degrees which he was gone down.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:9 @ The writing of Hezekiah the king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness:

lesserot@Isaiah:38:10 @ I had said, In the midst of my days, must I enter the gates of the nether world; I am deprived of the residue of my years.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:11 @ I had said, I shall not see the Lord, the Lord, in the land of the living: I shall not behold man any more among the inhabitants of the regions of death.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:12 @ My dwelling is broken down, and is removed from me as a shepherd’s tent: I have cut off, like a weaver, my life; with pining sickness will he snatch me away: from day until night wilt thou make an end of me.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:13 @ I waited till morning, as a lion, so would he break all my bones: from day until night wilt thou make an end of me.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:14 @ Like a swallow or a crane, so did I chirp; I did moan like a dove; my eyes were lifted up on high: O Lord, I am oppressed; grant me ease.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:15 @ What shall I speak? he hath promised it unto me, and he hath also accomplished it; I will make pilgrimages all my years because of the bitterness of my soul.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:16 @ O Lord, by these will live, and in all these is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou give me health, and cause me to live.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:17 @ Behold, for peace I had great bitterness; but thou hast, in loving my soul, delivered it from the pit of corruption; for thou hast cast behind thy back all my sins.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:18 @ For the nether world will not thank thee, death will not praise thee: they that go down into the pit will not hope for thy truth.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:19 @ The living, the living alone shall thank thee, like me this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:20 @ The Lord is there to help me; therefore we will play my hymns all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:21 @ And Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the inflammation, and he shall recover.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:22 @ And Hezekiah had said, What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the Lord?

lesserot@Isaiah:39:1 @ At that time sent Merodach–baladan, the son of Baladan, the king of Babylon, letters and a present to Hezekiah; for he had heard that he had been sick, and was become strong again.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:2 @ And Hezekiah was rejoiced on their account, and showed them his treasure–house, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and the whole of his armor–house, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing that Hezekiah showed them not, in his house, and in all his dominion.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:3 @ Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What did these men say? and whence did they come unto thee? And Hezekiah said, From a far–off country are they come unto me, from Babylon.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:4 @ And he said, What did they see in thy house? And Hezekiah said, all that is in my house have they seen; there is nothing that I did not show them in my treasures.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:5 @ And Isaiah said to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the Lord of hosts,

lesserot@Isaiah:39:6 @ Behold, days are coming when all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:7 @ And of thy sons that will issue from thee, whom thou wilt beget, shall they take; and they shall be court–servants in the palace of the king of Babylon.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:8 @ Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and stability in my days.

lesserot@Isaiah:40:4 @ Every valley shall be raised, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the crooked shall be made a straight path, and the rough places a plain:

lesserot@Isaiah:40:6 @ A voice saith, Proclaim; and he saith, What shall I proclaim? all flesh is grass, and all its goodliness is as the flower of the field:

lesserot@Isaiah:40:9 @ Upon a high mountain get thee up, thou that bringest good tidings to Zion; lift up with strength thy voice, thou who bringest good tidings to Jerusalem; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold, your God!

lesserot@Isaiah:40:11 @ Like a shepherd will he feed his flock: with his arm will he gather the lambs, and in his bosom will he carry them, will he lead gently those that suckle their young.

lesserot@Isaiah:40:12 @ Who hath measured in the hollow of his hand the waters, and meted out the heavens with the span, and comprised in a measure the dust of the earth, and weighed in the scale–beam the mountains, and the hills in balances?

lesserot@Isaiah:41:15 @ Behold, I have rendered thee a threshing instrument, sharp, new, having many teeth: thou shalt thresh mountains, and beat them small, and shalt render the hills as chaff.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:16 @ Thou shalt scatter them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the storm shall disperse them; but thou shalt rejoice in the Lord, in the Holy One of Israel shalt thou glorify thyself.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:17 @ The poor and the needy seek water, and there is none; their tongue is dried up with thirst: I the Lord will answer them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:18 @ I will open on naked mountain–peaks rivers, and in the midst of valleys fountains; I will change the wilderness into a pool of water, and the dry land into springs of water.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:19 @ I will place in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia, and the myrtle, and the oil–tree; I will set in the desert the fir–tree, the pine and the box–tree together;

lesserot@Isaiah:41:20 @ In order that they may see, and know and take, and comprehend together, that the hand of the Lord hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:21 @ Produce your cause, saith the Lord: bring forward your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:22 @ Let them bring them forward and tell us what shall happen: the former things––what are they?––tell us, that we may take it to heart, and know the result of them; or let us hear the things that are to come.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:23 @ Tell the events that are to happen hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be astonished, and see it together.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:24 @ Behold, ye are less than nothing, and your work less than a breath: an abomination chooseth you.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:25 @ I have waked up one from the north, and he cometh; from the rising of the sun one who will call on my name: and he shall come princes as mortar, and as the potter treadeth down the clay.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:26 @ Who hath told it from the beginning, that we may know it? and aforetimes, that we may say, "it is right?" but indeed there is none that telleth, indeed there is none that letteth us hear, indeed there is none that heareth your words.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:27 @ The first to Zion, Behold, there they are; and to Jerusalem will I give one that bringeth good tidings.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:28 @ And I ever look, and there is no man; and among these there is no counsellor, that they could answer a word.

lesserot@Isaiah:41:29 @ Behold, they all are naught; their works are nothing: wind and vanity are their molten images.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:1 @ Behold my servant, whom I will uphold; my elect, in whom my soul delighteth: I have put my spirit upon him, that he may bring forth justice to the nations.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:2 @ He shall not cry, nor call out aloud, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:3 @ A cracked reed will he not break, and a dimly burning wick will he not quench: unto truth shall he bring forth justice.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:4 @ He shall not become fatigued and not be faint, till he have established justice on earth; and the isles shall wait for his law.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:5 @ Thus hath said God the Lord, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and the things which come out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to those that walk thereon:

lesserot@Isaiah:42:6 @ I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will lay hold on thy hand, and will keep thee, and appoint thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations;

lesserot@Isaiah:42:7 @ To open blind eyes, to bring out from the dungeon the prisoner, and out of the prison–house those that dwell in darkness.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:8 @ I am the Everlasting One, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to any other, nor my praise to graven images.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:9 @ The former things, behold, are come to pass; and new things do I announce; before they spring forth I let you hear of them.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:10 @ Sing unto the Lord a new song, his praise from the end of the earth; ye that go down to the sea, and all that filleth it; the isles, and their inhabitants.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:11 @ Let resound with song the wilderness and its cities, the villages which Kedar inhabiteth: let the inhabitants of the rocks sing, let them shout forth from the top of the mountains.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:12 @ Let them give glory unto the Lord, and in the islands declare his praise.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:13 @ The Lord––as a mighty one will he go forth, like a man of war will he arouse his vengeance: he will shout, yea, raise the war–cry; against his enemies will he show his strength.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:14 @ I have a long time held my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: like a travailing woman will I cry; I will destroy and devour together.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:15 @ I will lay waste mountains and hills, and all their herbs will I dry up; and I will change the rivers into islands, and pools will I dry up.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:16 @ And I will cause the blind to walk on a way that they have not known; on paths that they have not known will I lead them: I will change darkness before them into light, and crooked places into plains. These are the things which I will do, and not leave them.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:17 @ They shall be turned back, they shall be ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to molten idols, Ye are our gods.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:18 @ Ye deaf, hear; and ye blind, look up, that ye may see.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:19 @ Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger whom I send? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the servant of the Lord?

lesserot@Isaiah:42:20 @ Thou seest many things, but observest not; the ears are open, but he heareth not.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:21 @ The Lord willed for the sake of his righteousness; he magnifieth the law, and maketh it honorable.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:22 @ But it is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them ensnared in holes, and in prison–houses are they hidden: they are become for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:23 @ Who among you will give ear to this? will hearken and listen, for the time to come?

lesserot@Isaiah:42:24 @ Who gave up Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to plunderers? was it not the Lord? he it is against whom we have sinned; for they would not walk in his ways, neither did they hearken unto his law.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:25 @ Therefore hath he poured out over him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it blazed all round about him, yet he regarded it not; and it burnt on him, yet he laid it not to heart.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:1 @ But now thus hath said the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not; for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; mine art thou.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:2 @ Whenever thou passest through the waters, I am with thee; and through the rivers,––they shall not overflow thee: whenever thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be scorched; neither shall the flame burn on thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:3 @ For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour; I have given Egypt for thy ransom, Cush and Seba in place of thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:4 @ Since thou art precious in my eyes, art honorable, and I indeed do love thee: therefore will I give men in place of thee, and nations instead of thy soul.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:5 @ Fear not, for I am with thee; from the east will I bring thy seed, and from the west will I gather thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:6 @ I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Withhold not: bring my sons from afar, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;

lesserot@Isaiah:43:7 @ Every one that is called by my name, and whom I have created for my glory; whom I have formed; yea, whom I have made.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:8 @ Bring forward the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:9 @ Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can announce this? and cause us to hear former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:10 @ Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: in order that ye may know and believe me, and understand, that I am he; before me there was no god formed, and after me there will be none.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:11 @ I, I am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:12 @ I myself have announced it, and I have saved, and I have let it be heard, and there was no strange among you; and ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and I am God.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:13 @ Yea, from the day am I he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: if I will work, is there one that can hinder it?

lesserot@Isaiah:43:14 @ Thus hath said the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, For your sake did I send to Babylon, and in swift vessels brought I them all down, and the Chaldeans, in the ships of their joyful song.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:15 @ I am the Lord, the Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:16 @ Thus hath said the Lord, who maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;

lesserot@Isaiah:43:17 @ Who bringeth forth chariot and horse, army and power: together shall they lie down, they shall not rise up again; they are extinct, like a wick are they quenched.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:18 @ Remember not the former things, and ancient events regard no more.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:19 @ Behold, I will do a new thing; now shall it spring forth; will ye not acknowledge it? I will even make in the wilderness a way, and in the desert rivers.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:20 @ The beasts of the field shall honor me, the monsters and the ostriches; because I give waters in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my elect;

lesserot@Isaiah:43:21 @ This people which I have formed for myself; my praise shall they relate.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:22 @ But on me hast thou not called, O Jacob; for thou art become weary of me, O Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:23 @ Thou hast not brought unto me the lamb of thy burnt–offerings; and with thy sacrifices hast thou not honored me: I have not troubled thee with meat–offerings, nor wearied thee with frankincense.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:24 @ Thou hast not bought for me sweet cane, and with the fat of thy sacrifices hast thou not satisfied me; but thou hast troubled me with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:25 @ I, it is I that blot out thy transgressions for my own sake, and thy sins I will not remember.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:26 @ Put me in remembrance; let us plead together: relate thou, in order that thou mayest be justified.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:27 @ Thy first father did sin, and they that plead for thee transgressed against me.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:28 @ Therefore do I profane the holy princes, and I give up Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:1 @ Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:

lesserot@Isaiah:44:2 @ Thus hath said the Lord thy Maker, and he that formed thee from the womb, who will help thee, Fear not, O my servant Jacob; and thou Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:3 @ For I pour water upon the thirsty, and rain–droppings upon the dry ground: will I pour my spirit over thy seed, and my blessing over thy offspring.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:4 @ After they shall spring up among grass, like willows by the water–courses.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:5 @ This one will say, I belong to the Lord; and the other will call himself by the name of Jacob; and the other will inscribe himself with his hand unto the Lord, and surname himself by the name of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:6 @ Thus hath said the Lord, the king of Israel, and his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts, I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no god.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:7 @ And who, like me, will announce, and will tell it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the people of ancient times? and the future things, and those which are to happen,––let them foretell unto them.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:8 @ Have no dread, and do not despond; have I not long since informed thee, and have told it? and ye are my witnesses: Is there a god beside me? yea, there is no rock, whom I know not.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:9 @ The makers of graven images are all vanity; and their costly idols cannot profit; and they are their own witnesses, that they see not and know not, in order that they may be ashamed.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:10 @ Who hath formed a god, or cast an image that profiteth nothing?

lesserot@Isaiah:44:11 @ Behold, all his associates shall be ashamed, for the workmen themselves are but men: let them all be gathered, let them stand up, they shall be terrified, they shall be ashamed together.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:12 @ The iron–smith an axe and worketh it in the coals, and with hammers he fashioneth it, and worketh it with his powerful arm; he also, when he is hungry, loseth his strength: when he drinketh no water, he becometh faint.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:13 @ The worker in wood stretcheth out the rule; he marketh it out with chalk; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, after the beauty of a child of earth, that it may dwell in a house.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:14 @ He felleth for himself cedars, and taketh cypress and oak, and he chooseth for himself the strongest among the trees of the forest; he planteth an ash, and the rain causeth it to grow.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:15 @ Then doth it serve a man for burning; and he taketh thereof, and warmeth himself; he also heateth therewith, and baketh bread; he also worketh out a god, and boweth himself; he maketh of it an image, and kneeleth down thereto.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:16 @ The half thereof hath he burnt in fire; with the half thereof will he eat flesh; he will roast food, and be satisfied; he will also warm himself, and say, Aha, I am warm, I have felt the fire:

lesserot@Isaiah:44:17 @ And the residue thereof hath he made into a god, his graven image; he kneeleth down unto it, and boweth himself, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for my god art thou.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:18 @ They know not, they understand not; for their eyes are daubed over, that they cannot see; their hearts, that they cannot understand.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:19 @ And he layeth it not to heart, and hath no knowledge, no understanding, to say, The half thereof have I burnt in fire; and I have also baked upon its coals bread; I will roast flesh, and eat it: and shall I make of its residue an abomination, before a block of wood shall I kneel?

lesserot@Isaiah:44:20 @ He pursueth ashes; a deceived heart hath turned him aside; and he cannot deliver his soul, and will not say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?

lesserot@Isaiah:44:21 @ Remember these things, O Jacob; and Israel, for thou art my servant: I have formed thee to be my servant, thou; O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten by me.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:22 @ I have blotted out, as a vapor, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:23 @ Sing, O ye heavens; for the Lord hath done it; shout, ye lowest depths of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and on Israel will he glorify himself.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:24 @ Thus hath said the Lord, thy Redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that hath made all things; that hath stretched forth the heavens by myself alone; that hath spread abroad the earth from my own self;

lesserot@Isaiah:44:25 @ That frustrate the tokens of the liars, and confuseth diviners; that turneth the wise backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;

lesserot@Isaiah:44:26 @ That fulfilleth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith of Jerusalem, It shall be inhabited; and of the cities of Judah, They shall be built, and their ruins will I raise up.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:27 @ That saith to the deep, Be dry, and thy rivers will I dry up;

lesserot@Isaiah:44:28 @ That saith of Cyrus, my shepherd, and all my pleasure shall he perform: even saying of Jerusalem, It shall be built; and the temple’s foundation shall be laid.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:1 @ Thus hath said the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whom I have taken hold of by his right hand, to subdue nations before him, even the loins of kings will I ungird, to open before him doors, and gates that they shall not be shut;

lesserot@Isaiah:45:2 @ I myself will go before thee, and proud eminences will I level: doors of brass will I break in pieces, and bolts of iron will I cut asunder.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:3 @ And I will give unto thee the treasures of darkness, and riches hidden in secret places; in order that thou mayest know that I am the Lord, who call thee by thy name, the God of Israel;

lesserot@Isaiah:45:4 @ For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel my elect; and I have called thee by thy name: I have designated thee, though thou hast not known me.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:5 @ I am the Lord, and there is none else, beside me there is no god; I assisted thee, though thou hast not known me.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:6 @ In order that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from its setting, that there is nothing without me. I am the Lord, and there is no one else;

lesserot@Isaiah:45:7 @ Forming the light, and creating darkness; making peace, and creating evil: I the Lord do all these things.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:8 @ Drop down ye heavens, and let the skies distil blessing; let the earth open and let them be fruitful of prosperity, and let righteousness spring up likewise: I the Lord have created it.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:9 @ Woe unto him that contendeth with the one who formed him––a potsherd among the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

lesserot@Isaiah:45:10 @ Woe unto him that saith unto father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What bringest thou forth?

lesserot@Isaiah:45:11 @ Thus hath said the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and he who hath formed him, About events to come will you ask me? concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands will ye command me?

lesserot@Isaiah:45:12 @ I myself have made the earth, and created man upon it; I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and I have ordained all their host.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:13 @ I myself have waked him up in righteousness, and all his ways will I make straight: he shall build my city, and my exiles shall he dismiss free, not for purchase–money nor for presents, saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:14 @ Thus hath said the Lord, The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of high stature, shall pass over unto thee, and thine shall they be: behind thee shall they walk; in chains shall they pass along, and unto thee shall they bow, unto thee shall they pray, Yea, only among thee is God; and there is no one else beside God.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:15 @ Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:16 @ They are ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: together shall they go to confusion that are makers of idols.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:17 @ Israel shall be helped by the Lord with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed and not be confounded unto all eternity.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:18 @ For thus hath said the Lord the creator of the heavens; he, the God that formed the earth and made it; he that hath established it,––not for naught did he create it, to be inhabited did he form it: I am the Lord; and there is no one else.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:19 @ Not on a secret spot have I spoken, in a dark place of the earth; I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me for naught; I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:20 @ Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye escaped fugitives of the nations! They have no knowledge that carry the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:21 @ Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this in ancient times? told it from the beginning? is it not I the Lord? and there is no other god without me, a just god and a saviour; there is none beside me.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:22 @ Turn unto me, so that ye may be helped, all ye ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no one else.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:23 @ By myself have I sworn, righteousness is gone out of my mouth, a word shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bend, every tongue shall swear.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:24 @ Only in the Lord,––shall men say of me,––there are righteousness and strength. Unto him shall come and be ashamed all that are incensed against him.

lesserot@Isaiah:45:25 @ In the Lord shall be justified, and shall glory themselves all the seed of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:46:1 @ Bel is bowed down, Nebo sinketh, their idols are unto the beasts, and unto the cattle; those which were once carried by you are now laden up a burden to the weary beasts.

lesserot@Isaiah:46:2 @ They are sunk, they are bowed down together; they could not deliver the burden, but they themselves are gone into captivity.

lesserot@Isaiah:46:3 @ Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, who are borne from their birth, who are carried from the womb;

lesserot@Isaiah:46:4 @ And even unto old age I am the same; and even unto the time of hoary hairs will I bear: l have done it, and I will carry; even I will bear, and deliver you.

lesserot@Isaiah:46:5 @ To whom will ye liken and assimilate me, and compare me, that we may be like?

lesserot@Isaiah:46:6 @ that lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance; that hire a melter, that he may make of it a god; they bend the knee, yea, they bow themselves down;

lesserot@Isaiah:46:7 @ They carry him, upon the shoulder they bear him, and set up him in his spot, and he remaineth standing, from his place he doth not move: yea, though one should cry unto him, he cannot answer, out of his trouble he cannot help him.

lesserot@Isaiah:46:8 @ Remember this, and take courage: take it again to heart, O ye transgressors.

lesserot@Isaiah:46:9 @ Remember the former things of olden times; for I am God, and there is no one else; I am God, and there is nothing like me.

lesserot@Isaiah:46:11 @ Calling from the east the eagle, from a far–off country the man of my counsel; yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also execute it.

lesserot@Isaiah:46:12 @ Hearken unto me, ye stout of heart, that are far from righteousness:

lesserot@Isaiah:46:13 @ I have brought near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will grant unto Zion salvation, unto Israel my glory.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:1 @ Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground, there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans; for men shall nevermore call thee, Tender and delicate.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:2 @ Take the mill, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, lift up the train, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:3 @ Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not regard any man.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:4 @ Our redeemer––the Lord of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:6 @ I was wroth over my people, I defiled my inheritance, and gave them into thy hand: thou didst grant them no mercy; upon the aged hast thou laid very heavily thy yoke.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:7 @ And thou saidst, For ever shall I be mistress; until that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart, thou didst not call to mind the result thereof.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:8 @ And now hear this, luxurious one, that dwellest in security, that sayest in thy heart, I am, and there is nothing else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:

lesserot@Isaiah:47:9 @ Yet both these things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood; in their full measure shall they come upon thee, despite of the multitude of thy sorceries, despite of the very great abundance of thy enchantments.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:10 @ And thou didst trust in thy wickedness: thou saidst, No one seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge,––these were they that seduced thee; and thou saidst in thy heart, I am, and there is nothing else beside me.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:11 @ And there shall come upon thee an evil, which thou shalt not know how to remove it by prayer; and there shall fall upon thee mischief, which thou shalt not be able to atone for; and there shall come upon thee suddenly desolation, which thou shalt not know.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:12 @ Stand now with thy enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast labored from thy youth; peradventure thou mayest be able to profit, peradventure thou mayest withstand.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:13 @ Thou art wearied with the multitude of thy counsels. Do let now those that divide off the heavens, that look at the stars, that announce events at new moons, stand up, and save thee from the things that are to come over thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:14 @ Behold, they are become as stubble; the fire burneth them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: not a coal shall be left to warm at, no blaze to sit before it.

lesserot@Isaiah:47:15 @ Thus are they become unto thee with whom thou hast labored; those that had commerce with thee from thy youth, wander away every one on his road: there is no one to save thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:1 @ Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the spring of Judah, who swear by the name of the Lord, and make mention of the God of Israel,––not in truth, nor in righteousness.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:2 @ For of the holy city they call themselves, and upon the God of Israel they stay themselves,––The Lord of hosts is his name.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:3 @ The former things have I declared from the beginning; and out of my mouth went they forth, and I announced them: suddenly did I accomplish them, and they came to pass;

lesserot@Isaiah:48:5 @ And I declared it to thee from the beginning; before yet it came to pass did I let thee hear it: lest thou should say, My idol hath done these things, and my graven image, and my molten image, have ordained them.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:6 @ Thou hast heard it; see it all now; and you––will you not declare it? I caused thee to hear new things, from this time, even hidden things which thou hadst not known.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:7 @ Now are they created, and not from the beginning; and before the day thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:8 @ But neither hadst thou heard it; nor didst thou know; nor had in ancient times thy ear been opened; for I knew that thou wouldst deal very treacherously, and a transgressor wast thou called from thy birth.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:9 @ For the sake of my name will I defer my anger, and because of my praise will I restrain it toward thee, so that I may not cut thee off.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:1 @ Hearken, O isles, unto me; and listen, ye people, from afar: The Lord hath called me from my birth; from my mother’s womb hath he made mention of my name.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:2 @ And he hath rendered my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hidden me: and he hath rendered me as a polished arrow; in his quiver hath he concealed me;

lesserot@Isaiah:49:3 @ And said unto me, My servant art thou, O Israel, thou on whom I will be glorified.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:4 @ But I had indeed said, For no purpose have I labored, for naught and vanity have I spent my strength; yet surely my cause is with the Lord, and the recompense of my work with my God.

lesserot@Isaiah:50:2 @ Why did I come and no man was there, did I call, with none to answer? hath my hand become too short for redeeming? or is there no power in me to deliver? behold, through my threatening I can dry up the sea, I can change the rivers into a wilderness: their fish stink for want of water, and die for thirst.

lesserot@Isaiah:50:3 @ I can clothe the heavens with blackness, and I can make sackcloth their garment.

lesserot@Isaiah:50:4 @ The Lord Eternal hath given me a tongue for teaching, that I should know how to strengthen the weary with the word: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth my ear to listen like those who are well taught.

lesserot@Isaiah:50:5 @ The Lord Eternal hath opened me my ear, and I resisted not: I turned not backward.

lesserot@Isaiah:50:6 @ My back I gave up to the smiters, and my cheeks to those that plucked off the hair: my face I hid not from abuse and spitting.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:22 @ Thus hath said thy Lord, the Eternal, and thy God, who will ever plead for his people, Behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of confusion, the deep cup of my fury: thou shalt never more drink it again.

lesserot@Isaiah:52:3 @ For thus hath said the Lord, For naught were you sold, and without silver shall ye be redeemed.

lesserot@Isaiah:52:4 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Into Egypt went my people down aforetimes, to sojourn there, and Asshur hath oppressed it without cause.

lesserot@Isaiah:52:5 @ And now what have I here, saith the Lord, since my people hath been taken away for naught? its rulers vaunt aloud, saith the Lord, and continually, all the day, is my name blasphemed.

lesserot@Isaiah:52:6 @ Therefore shall my people know my name, therefore on that day, that I am he that speaketh it: here am I.

lesserot@Isaiah:52:7 @ How beautiful are upon the mountains the feet of the messenger of good tidings, that publisheth peace, that announceth tidings of happiness, that publisheth salvation, that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth.

lesserot@Isaiah:52:14 @ Just as many were astonished at thee, so greatly was his countenance marred more than any man’s, and his form more than the sons of men,––

lesserot@Isaiah:52:15 @ Thus will he cause many nations to jump up in; at him will kings shut their mouth; for what had not been told unto them shall they see, and what they had never heard shall they understand.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:1 @ Who would have believed our report? and the arm of the Lord––over whom hath it been revealed?

lesserot@Isaiah:53:2 @ Yea, he grew up like a small shoot before him, and as a root out of a dry land: he had no form nor comeliness, so that we should look at him; and no countenance, so that we should desire him.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:3 @ He was despised and shunned by men; a man of pains, and acquainted with disease; and as one who hid his face from us was he despised, and we esteemed him not.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:4 @ But only our diseases did he bear himself, and our pains he carried: while we indeed esteemed him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:5 @ Yet he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement for our peace was upon him; and through his bruises was healing granted to us.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:6 @ We all like sheep went astray; every one to his own way did we turn; and the Lord let befall him the guilt of us all.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:7 @ He was oppressed, and he was also taunted, yet he opened not his mouth; like the lamb which is led to the slaughter, and like an ewe before her shearers is dumb; and he opened not his mouth.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:8 @ Through oppression and through judicial punishment was he taken away; but his generation––who could tell, that he was cut away out of the land of life, for the transgressions of my people the plague was laid on him?

lesserot@Isaiah:53:9 @ And he let his grave be made with the wicked, and with the rich at his death; although he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:10 @ But the Lord was pleased to crush him through disease: when his soul hath brought the trespass–offering, then shall he see seed, live many days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:11 @ from the trouble of his soul shall he see and be satisfied: through his knowledge shall my righteous servant bring the many to righteousness, while he will bear their iniquities.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:12 @ Therefore will I divide him with the many, and with the strong shall he divide the spoil; because he poured out his soul unto death, and with transgressors was he numbered: while he bore the sin of many, and for the transgressors he let befall him.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:1 @ Sing, O barren one, that thou hast not born: break forth into song, and rejoice aloud, that thou hast not travailed; for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:2 @ Enlarge the space of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thy habitations,––spare not: lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

lesserot@Isaiah:54:3 @ For to the right and to the left shalt thou spread forth; and thy seed shall drive out nations, desolate cities shall they repeople.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:4 @ Fear not, for thou shalt not be made ashamed; and be not confounded, for thou shalt not be put to the blush; for the shame of thy youth shalt thou forget, and the reproach of thy widowhood shalt thou not remember any more.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:5 @ For thy husband is thy Maker, the Lord of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, "The God of all the earth," shall he be called.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:6 @ For as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit did the Lord call thee back, and as a wife of youth, that was rejected, saith thy God.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:7 @ But for a brief moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I again receive thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:8 @ In a little wrath did I hide my face for a moment from thee; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith thy Redeemer the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:9 @ For as the waters of Noah is this unto me; as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more pass over the earth: so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:10 @ For the mountains may depart, and the hills may be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith he that hath mercy on thee, the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:11 @ O thou afflicted, tossed by the tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colors, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:16 @ Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have also created the waster to destroy.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:17 @ No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that will rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their due reward from me, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:1 @ Ho, every one of ye that thirsteth, come ye to the water, and he too that hath no money: come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy without money and without price wine and milk.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:2 @ Wherefore will ye spend money for what is not bread? and your labor for what satisfieth not? hearken then unto me, and eat what is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:4 @ Behold, for a lawgiver unto the people have I appointed him, a prince and commander to the people.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:5 @ Behold, a nation thou knowest not shalt thou call, and a nation that knew thee not shall run unto thee; for the sake of the Lord thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for he hath glorified thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:6 @ Seek ye the Lord, while he may be found, call ye on him, while he is near.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:7 @ Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of unrighteousness his thoughts; and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him, and unto our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:8 @ For not my thoughts are your thoughts, and not your ways are my ways, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:9 @ For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are my ways above your ways, and my thoughts above your thoughts.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:10 @ For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and return not thither, but water the earth, and render it fruitful, and cause it to bring forth plants; and give seed to the sower and bread to him that eateth:

lesserot@Isaiah:55:11 @ So shall ever be my word which goeth forth from my mouth, it shall not return unto me without effect; but it accomplisheth what I desire, and it prospereth in that whereto I have sent it.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:12 @ For in joy shall ye go out, and in peace shall ye be brought home: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into song, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:13 @ Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir–tree, and instead of the nettle shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be unto the Lord for a name, for a sign of everlasting that shall not be cut off.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:1 @ Thus hath said the Lord, Keep ye justice, and do equity; for near is my salvation to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:2 @ Happy is the mortal that ever doth this, and the son of man that ever layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath by not violating it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:3 @ And let not say the son of the stranger, that joineth himself unto the Lord, saying, Surely the Lord will exclude me from his people; nor let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:4 @ For thus hath said the Lord concerning the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and make choice of what pleaseth me, and take hold of my covenant.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:5 @ I will indeed give unto them in my house and within my walls a place and a name, better than sons and daughters: an everlasting name will I give them, that shall not be cut off.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:6 @ Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves unto the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be unto him as servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath by not violating it, and those who take hold of my covenant:

lesserot@Isaiah:56:7 @ Even these will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt–offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon my altar; for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:8 @ Thus saith the Lord Eternal who gathereth the outcasts of Israel, I will yet gather to him, beside his own gathered.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:9 @ All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, all ye beasts in the forest.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:10 @ His watchmen are all of them blind, they know nothing; they all are dumb dogs, they cannot bark; dreamers, lying down, loving to slumber.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:11 @ But the dogs are of a greedy disposition, they know not how to be satisfied; and those are shepherds that know how to understand: they all turn to their own way, every one after his gain, from all quarters.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:12 @ Come ye, I will fetch wine, and let us swallow abundantly of strong drink; and like this day shall it be tomorrow, excellent and in very great abundance.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:5 @ That are inflamed after the idols under every green tree; that slaughter the children in the valleys under the clefts of the rocks?

lesserot@Isaiah:57:6 @ Of the smooth stones of the valley is thy portion; they, they are thy lot: even to them hast thou poured out a drink–offering, hast thou offered a meat–offering. Shall I for these things repent me?

lesserot@Isaiah:57:7 @ Upon a high and lofty mountain hast thou placed thy couch: even thither wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:8 @ And behind the doors and the door–posts hast thou placed thy remembrance; for from me, thou hast laid open, and art gone up,––hast enlarged thy couch, and made thee a covenant with some of them; thou hast loved their lying with thee, hast selected a fitting place.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:9 @ And thou didst show thyself unto the king without ointment, and thou didst multiply thy perfumes, and thou didst send out thy messengers even into the far–off distance, and didst debase thyself even down to the nether world.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:10 @ Though thou art wearied by the length of thy way, yet saidst thou not, It is useless: thou hadst found enough for thy hand; therefore didst thou feel no care.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:11 @ And of whom hadst thou dread or fear, that thou becamest false, and didst not remember me, nor lay it to thy heart? is it not so? I kept silence, and this from earliest times, and therefore thou fearest me not!

lesserot@Isaiah:57:12 @ I, I ever tell thee thy righteousness; but thy works––these indeed will not profit thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:13 @ When thou criest, let thy masses of idols deliver thee; but all of them will the wind carry away, a breath will take them off; but he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:14 @ And he will say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, clear out the way, lift up every stumbling block out of the way of my people.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:15 @ For thus hath said the high and lofty One, who inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy, In the high and holy place do I dwell, yet also with the contrite and humble of spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:16 @ For not to eternity will I contend, neither will I be for ever wroth: when the spirit from before me is overwhelmed, and the souls which I have made.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:17 @ Because of the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and I smote him, hiding my face, and was wroth: while he went on frowardly in the way of his own heart.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:18 @ I see his ways, and I will heal him; and I will guide him, and bestow full comforts on him and on his mourners;

lesserot@Isaiah:58:1 @ Cry with a full throat, spare not, like the cornet lift up thy voice, and declare unto my people their transgression, and to the house of Jacob their sins.

lesserot@Isaiah:58:2 @ Yet me do they ever seek day by day, and to know my ways do they always desire; as a nation that hath done righteousness, and hath not forsaken the ordinance of their God: continually do they ask of me the ordinances of justice––do they desire to draw nigh unto God.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:6 @ That they said not, Where is the Lord that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of wildness, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land through which no one had passed, and where no man had dwelt?

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:8 @ The priests said not, Where is the Lord? and they that handle the law knew me not; and the shepherds transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied in the name of Ba’al, and after things that cannot profit did they walk.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:10 @ For pass over to the isles of the Chittites, and see; and unto Kedar send, and consider well and see if any thing like this hath happened.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:12 @ Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and let your hair stand at an end, be ye greatly terrified, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:13 @ For two evils have my people committed: me have they forsaken, the source of living waters, to hew out for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns, that cannot hold water.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:14 @ Is Israel a servant? or one born in the house? why hath he been given up to plunder?

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:15 @ over him young lions roared, let their voice resound, and changed his land into a waste, that his cities are burnt, left without an inhabitant?

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:17 @ Hast thou not procured this unto thyself, through thy forsaking the Lord thy God, while he was leading thee on the way?

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:19 @ Thy own wickedness shall chastise thee, and thy backslidings shall correct thee; and thou shalt know and see that evil and bitter was thy forsaking the Lord thy God, while the dread of me was not upon thee, saith the Lord Eternal of hosts.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:24 @ a wild ass used to the wilderness, that at her pleasure snuffeth up the wind; her lust––who can turn this away? all they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month will they find her.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:25 @ "Prevent thy foot from being unshod, and thy throat from being thirsty;" but thou saidst, It is useless; no, for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:26 @ As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so have the house of Israel been made ashamed, they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets,

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:27 @ Who say to the wood, Thou art my father; and to the stone, Thou hast brought us forth; for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face; but in the time of their misfortune will they say, Arise, and save us.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:28 @ But where are then thy gods that thou hast made for thyself? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy misfortune; for equal to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:31 @ O generation, regard ye the word of the Lord. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of deep darkness? wherefore say my people, We wander about; we cannot come any more unto thee?

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:34 @ Also on thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the innocent needy ones: not while breaking in didst thou find them; but for all these things.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:35 @ Yet thou sayest, Yea, I am innocent, surely his anger is already turned away from me. Behold, I will hold judgment with thee, because thou sayest, I have not sinned.

lesserot@Jeremiah:2:37 @ Also from this one shalt thou go forth, with thy hands over thy head; for the Lord hath rejected those on whom thou trustest and thou shalt not prosper with them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:1 @ One could say, Behold, if a man send away his wife, and she go from him, and become another man’s, can he return unto her again? would not that land be greatly polluted? and thou hast played the harlot with many companions, and wilt yet return to me, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:4 @ Wilt thou not from this time call out unto mem My father, the guide of my youth art thou?

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:6 @ And the Lord said unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen what backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and hath played the harlot there.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:7 @ And I thought that after she had done all these things, she would return unto me. But she returned not. And this saw her treacherous sister Judah.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:8 @ And I saw, that, although because backsliding Israel had committed adultery, I had sent her away, and given her bill of divorce unto her, still treacherous Judah her sister feared not, but went and played herself the harlot also.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:10 @ And yet with all this her treacherous sister Judah hath not returned unto me with all her heart, but with falsehood, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:11 @ And the Lord said unto me, The backsliding Israel hath justified herself through the treacherous Judah.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:12 @ Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the Lord: I will not cause my anger to fall upon you; for I am full of kindness, saith the Lord, I will not hear grudge for ever.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:18 @ In those days shall the house of Judah walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north unto the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:19 @ But I had thought, How shall I establish thee among the sons, and give thee a desirable land, a heritage of glory of the hosts of nations? and I thought, My father thou wouldst call me, and that from me thou wouldst not turn away.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:20 @ But truly as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:21 @ A voice is now heard upon the mountain–tops, the supplicatory weeping of the children of Israel; for they have perverted their way, they have forgotten the Lord their God.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:23 @ Truly deceptive was from the hills, and the multitude on the mountains; truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:24 @ And shame hath devoured the acquisition of our fathers from our youth, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.

lesserot@Jeremiah:3:25 @ We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us; for against the Lord our God have we sinned, we and our fathers, from our youth even until this day; and we have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord our God."

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:1 @ If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the Lord, unto me must thou return; and if thou wilt put away thy abominations out of my sight, then shalt thou not wander about.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:4 @ Circumcise yourselves to the Lord, and remove the obduracy of your heart, O ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn so that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:5 @ Tell ye in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem, and say, Blow ye the cornet in the land: call out, gather together, and say, Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the fortified cities.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:7 @ The lion is come up from his thicket, and the destroyer of nations hath commenced his march, he is gone forth from his place, to make thy land desolate; and thy cities shall be laid waste, left without an inhabitant.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:8 @ For this gird yourselves with sackcloths, lament and wail; for the fierce anger of the Lord is not turned away from us.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:9 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, saith the Lord, that the heart of the king and the heart of the princes shall fail; and the priests shall be astonished, and the prophets shall wonder.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:10 @ Then said I, Ah, Lord Eternal! surely thou hast greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall have peace; whereas the sword reacheth unto the soul.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:11 @ At that time shall be announced to this people and to Jerusalem a dry wind from the mountain–peaks in the wilderness, on the road to the daughter of my people; not to winnow, nor to cleanse,

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:13 @ Behold, like clouds shall he come up, and like a whirlwind shall be his chariots: swifter than eagles are his horses. "Woe unto us! for we are wasted."

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:15 @ For a voice declareth from Dan, and publisheth unhappiness from the mountain of Ephraim.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:18 @ Thy way and thy doings have procured these things unto thee: this is thy wickedness, which is so bitter, which so reacheth unto thy heart.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:20 @ Ruin upon ruin is called out; for the whole land is wasted: suddenly are my tents wasted, and in a moment, my curtains.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:22 @ "Because my people is foolish, me have they not known; sottish children are they, and they have not any understanding: wise are they to do evil, but how to do good they do not know."

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:23 @ I look at the earth, and, lo, it is without form and void; and toward the heavens, and their light is gone.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:25 @ I look, and, lo, there is no man, and all the birds of the heavens are fled.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:26 @ I look, and, lo, the fruitful country is a wilderness, and all its cities are laid waste at the presence of the Lord, because of the fierceness of his anger.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:28 @ For this shall mourn the earth, and black shall be the heavens above; because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and I will not repent, and I will not turn back from it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:29 @ From the noise of horsemen and those that shoot with the bow fleeth the whole city; they go into thickets, and climb up upon the rocks: every city is forsaken, and not a man dwelleth therein.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:30 @ And thou, O wasted one, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothe thyself with scarlet, though thou adorn thyself with ornaments of gold, though thou encircle with paint thy eyes: in vain shalt thou make thyself beautiful; the adulterers will despise thee, thy life will they seek.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:31 @ For a voice as of a woman in travail have I heard, the anguish as of one that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that groaneth, that spreadeth out her hands, "Woe is me now! for my soul succumbeth to the murderers."

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:4 @ Yet I myself thought, Oh these are but poor; they are foolish; for they knew not the way of the Lord, the ordinance of their God.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:7 @ How shall I for this pardon thee? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by those that are not gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlot’s house.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:8 @ As robust horses they rose by times in the morning: every one neighed after the wife of his neighbor.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:9 @ Shall I not for these things inflict punishment? saith the Lord: and shall on a nation such as this my soul not be avenged?

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:11 @ For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:12 @ They have denied the Lord, and said, "He existeth not; nor will evil come over us; and the sword and famine shall we not see.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:13 @ And the prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them:" thus shall it be done unto them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:14 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord the God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth to be a fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:15 @ Lo, I will bring over you a nation from afar, O house of Israel, saith the Lord: it is a mighty nation, it is a most ancient nation, a nation whose language thou wilt not know, and thou wilt not understand what they speak.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:16 @ Their quiver is as an open sepulchre: they are all mighty men.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:19 @ And it shall come to pass, when ye will say, For what reason hath the Lord our God done all these things unto us? that thou shalt say unto them, In the same manner as ye have forsaken me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not yours.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:20 @ Announce this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:21 @ Do now hear this, O sottish people, who have no heart; who have eyes, and see not; who have ears, and hear not;

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:23 @ But this people hath a stubborn and a rebellious heart: they have departed and have gone their way.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:25 @ Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden what is good from you.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:27 @ As a coop is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore are they become great, and grown rich.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:29 @ shall I not for these things inflict punishment? saith the Lord: or shall on a nation such as this my soul not be avenged?

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:30 @ An astonishing and horrible thing is committed in the land;

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:1 @ Assemble, O ye children of Benjamin, to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and in Tekoa, blow the cornet, and on Beth–hakkerem set up a fire signal; for evil is seen out of the north, and great havoc.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:3 @ Unto her shall come shepherds with their flocks; they shall pitch their tents against her round about; they shall feed off every one his own place.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:4 @ Prepare ye war against her! "Arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe unto us! for the day waneth, for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:5 @ Arise, and let us go up by night, and let us destroy her palaces."

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:6 @ For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Cut ye down trees, and cast up a mound against Jerusalem: this is the city whose time of punishment is come; she is full of oppression in her midst.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:7 @ As a well sendeth forth its waters, so doth she cause her wickedness to spring forth: violence and robbery are heard in her; in my presence there are continually disease and wounds.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:8 @ Be thou instructed, O Jerusalem, that my soul tear itself not away from thee; that I render thee not desolate, a land which is not inhabited.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:9 @ Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, They shall thoroughly glean like a vine the remnant of Israel: carry back thy hand as a grape–gatherer frequently to the baskets.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:10 @ To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot be attentive: behold, the word of the Lord is become unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:11 @ And I am full of the fury of the Lord; I am weary with sustaining it: pour it out over the child in the street, and over the assembly of young men together; for even the husband with the wife shall be seized, the aged with him that is full of days.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:13 @ For from their least even unto their greatest, every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one practiseth falsehood.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:14 @ And they heal the breach of the daughter of my people very lightly, saying, Peace, peace: when there is no peace.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:15 @ They should have been ashamed, because they had committed an abomination; but they neither felt the least shame, nor did they know how to blush: therefore shall they fall among those that fall; at the time that I punish their sin shall they stumble, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:16 @ Thus hath said the Lord, Place yourselves on the ways, and see, and ask after the ancient paths, where is the way which is good, that ye may walk thereon, and find rest for your soul. But they said, We will not walk.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:17 @ Then did I set watchmen over you, Listen to the sound of the cornet. But they said, We will not listen.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:18 @ Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O assembly, what is among them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:19 @ Hear, O earth! behold, I will bring evil upon this people, the fruit of their thoughts; because unto my words have they not been attentive, and as regardeth my law,––that have they despised.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:21 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will place before this people stumbling–blocks, and thereon shall stumble the fathers and the sons together, the neighbor and his friend, and they shall perish.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:22 @ Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, a people is coming from the north country, and a great nation shall wake up from the farthest ends of the earth.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:24 @ We have heard the fame of him––our hands grow feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, pain, as of a woman in giving birth.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:29 @ The bellows are burnt, by the fire the lead is consumed: in vain the melter refineth; for the wicked are not separated away.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:2 @ Place thyself in the gate of the house of the Lord, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the Lord, all ye of Judah, that enter in by these gates to bow down before the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:3 @ Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your deeds, and I will permit you to dwell in this place.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:6 @ If ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, and walk not after other gods to your own hurt:

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:10 @ And come and stand before my presence in this house, which is called by my name, and say, "We are delivered;" in order to do all these abominations?

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:11 @ Is then this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? I also, behold, I have seen it, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:12 @ For go ye now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did unto it because of the wickedness of my people Israel.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:13 @ And now, whereas ye have done all these acts, saith the Lord, and I spoke unto you, causing to rise up early and speaking, while ye would not hear; and I called you, but ye would not answer:

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:14 @ Therefore will I do unto this house, which is called by my name, whereon ye rely, and unto the place which I have given to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:16 @ But thou––pray not thou in behalf of this people, nor lift up in their behalf entreaty or prayer, nor make intercession to me; for I will not hear thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:20 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold my anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, over man, and over beast, and over the trees of the field, and over the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and it shall not be quenched.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:21 @ Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Add your burnt–offerings unto your peace–sacrifices, and eat the flesh thereof.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:23 @ But this thing did I command them, saying, Hearken to my voice, and I will be unto you for a God, and ye shall be unto me for a people; and walk ye altogether on the way which I may command you, in order that it may be well unto you.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:25 @ Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt until this day; and I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, sending them daily in the morning early;

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:28 @ Then shalt thou say unto them, This is the nation that hearken not to the voice of the Lord their God, and accept not correction; lost is the truth, and is obliterated from their mouth.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:29 @ Cut off thy flowing hair, and cast it away, and take up on mountain–tops a lamentation; for rejected hath the Lord and forsaken the generation of his wrath.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:30 @ For the children of Judah have done what is evil in my eyes, saith the Lord: they have set up their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:31 @ And they have built the high–places of Thophet, which is in the valley of Ben–hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I had not commanded, and which never came into my mind.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:33 @ And the carcasses of this people shall become food unto the fowls of the heavens, and unto the beasts of the earth, with none to chase them away.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:1 @ At that time, saith the Lord, shall they bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:3 @ And death shall be preferable to life, for all the residue of those that are left of this evil family, who are left in all the places whither I shall have driven them, saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:4 @ And thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord, Shall they fall, and not arise? will he turn away, and not return?

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:5 @ Why then remaineth this people, Jerusalem, rebellious by a perpetual backsliding? they hold fast on deceit, they refuse to return.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:6 @ I listened and heard, but they would not speak aright; no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned again to his course, as the impetuous horse in the battle.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:8 @ How can ye say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? Truly, behold in vain wrought the pen, in vain the writers.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:9 @ The wise men are ashamed, they are discouraged and caught, lo, the word of the Lord have they rejected; and what wisdom have they?

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:10 @ Therefore will I give their wives unto others, their fields to conquerors; for from the least even unto the greatest, every one is seeking his own gain: from the prophet even unto the priest every one practiseth falsehood.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:3 @ For the statutes of these people concern what is vanity; for it is but a tree which a man hath cut out of a forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:5 @ As a wrought–out palm–like column are they, and cannot speak; they must needs be borne, because they cannot step along. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do any harm, so also to do any good is not in them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:6 @ Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O Lord: thou art great, and great is thy name in might.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:7 @ Who would not fear thee, O King of the nations? for to thee doth it appertain; because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like unto thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:9 @ The beaten out silver is brought from Tharshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the goldsmith: blue and purple is their clothing; the work of skilful men are they all.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:10 @ But the Lord God is the truth, he is the living God, and the everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall quake, and nations cannot endure his indignation.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:11 @ Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, shall perish away from the earth, and from under these heavens.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:12 @ He made the earth by his power, he established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding he stretched out the heavens.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:14 @ Then standeth every man as brutish without knowledge; ashamed is every goldsmith because of the graven image; for falsehood is his molten work, and there is no breath therein.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:15 @ They are vanity, the work of deception; in the time of their punishment shall they vanish.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:16 @ Not like these is the portion of Jacob; for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance: The Lord of hosts is his name.

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:8 @ But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and they overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and all his army was scattered from him.

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:10 @ And the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: and also all the princes of Judah did he slaughter in Riblah.

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:11 @ And the eyes of Zedekiah did he blind; and the king of Babylon bound him with brazen fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in the ward–house till the day of his death.

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:25 @ And out of the city he took a certain court–officer, who had the supervision of the men of war: and seven men of those that had free access to the kings presence, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the chief of the army, who ordered to the army the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city;

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:27 @ And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death in Riblah in the land of Chamath. Thus Judah was carried away into exile out of his own country.

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:28 @ This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away into exile: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty and three Jews;

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:31 @ And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the exile of Jehoyachin the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the five and twentieth day of the month that Evil–merodach the king of Babylon in the year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoyachin the king of Judah, and brought him forth out of the prison–house;

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:32 @ And he spoke kindly with him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon,

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:33 @ And he changed his prison–garments: and he ate bread before him continually all the days of his life.

lesserot@Jeremiah:52:34 @ And his allowance was a continual allowance given him by the king, the necessary ration for the day on its day, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.

lesserot@Lamentations:1:7 @ Jerusalem remembereth in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her magnificent things which have been in the days of old: when her people fell into the hand of the adversary, with none to help her, the adversaries looked at her, they laughed at the cessation.

lesserot@Lamentations:1:8 @ A grievous sin did Jerusalem commit, therefore is she become a wanderer: all that honored her hold her in contempt, because they have seen her nakedness; she also sigheth, and turneth backward.

lesserot@Lamentations:1:9 @ her uncleanness on her skirts, she thought not of her latter end: therefore is she come down wonderfully, without one to comfort her. Behold, O Lord, my affliction; for the enemy hath become great.

lesserot@Lamentations:1:10 @ His hand hath the adversary spread out over all her magnificent things; for she hath seen nations entering into her sanctuary, of whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.

lesserot@Lamentations:2:3 @ He hath hewn away in his fierce anger the whole horn of Israel; he hath drawn back his right hand before the enemy; and he burnt against Jacob like a flaming fire, which devoureth round about.

lesserot@Lamentations:2:4 @ He bent his bow like an enemy; he held out his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye: in the tent of the daughter of Zion did he pour out like fire his fury.

lesserot@Lamentations:2:6 @ And he violently wasted, as if it were a garden, his tabernacle; he destroyed his place of assembly: the Lord hath caused to be forgotten in Zion the solemn feast and the day of rest, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger both king and priest.

lesserot@Lamentations:2:7 @ The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath made void his sanctuary, he hath surrendered into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces: they have made their voice to resound in the house of the Lord, as on a day of a solemn feast.

lesserot@Lamentations:4:3 @ Even wild beasts offer the breast, they give suck to their young ones: the daughter of my people is become cruel, like the ostriches in the wilderness.

lesserot@Lamentations:4:4 @ The tongue of the suckling cleaveth to its palate by reason of thirst: babes ask for bread, there is not one to break it for them.

lesserot@Lamentations:4:6 @ For greater is the iniquity of the daughter of my people than the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown as it were in a moment, and no human hands were laid on her.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:1 @ And it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was in the midst of the exiles by the river Kebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw divine visions.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:5 @ And out of the midst thereof the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: They had the likeness of a man.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:7 @ And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they sparkled like the glitter of burnished copper.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:12 @ And they went every one in the direction of one of his faces: whither the spirit was directed to go, they went; they turned not about in their going.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:13 @ As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like coals of fire, burning as with the appearance of torches; this it was which passed along between the living creatures: and a brightness was about the fire, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:24 @ And I heard the sound of their wings, like the sound of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, when they went, the sound of speech, as the noise of an army: when they stood still, they let down their wings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:27 @ And I saw as if it were the glitter of amber, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins upward; and from the appearance of his loins downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:28 @ Like the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about: this was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard the voice of one that spoke.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:3 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to rebellious tribes that have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even until this very day.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:6 @ And thou, son of man,––thou shalt not be afraid of them, and of their words thou shalt have no fear, though they be briers and thorns with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: of their words be not afraid, and at their presence be not dismayed; for they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:8 @ But thou, son of man, hear what I am speaking unto thee, Be not thou rebellious like this rebellious family: open thy mouth, and eat what I give unto thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:1 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, eat what thou findest: eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:2 @ So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat this roll.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:3 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, feed thy belly, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I am giving unto thee. And I ate it; and it was in my mouth like honey in sweetness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:4 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:5 @ For not to a people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue art thou sent, but to the house of Israel;

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:7 @ But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me; for all the house of Israel have a bold forehead, and a hard heart.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:9 @ As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: thou shalt not fear them, nor shalt thou be dismayed at their presence, though they be a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:12 @ Then a spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, Blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:17 @ Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: and thou shalt hear the word out of my mouth, and give them warning from me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:18 @ When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou dost not give him warning, and speakest not to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life: the same wicked man shall die through his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:19 @ But thou,––if thou hast warned the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way: he shall indeed die in his iniquity; but thou hast surely delivered thy soul.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:20 @ Again, When a righteous man do turn from his righteousness, and do what is wrong: then will I lay a stumbling–block before him, he shall die; yet if thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his acts of righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require from thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:22 @ And the inspiration of the Lord came there over me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the valley, and there will I speak with thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:3 @ Moreover take thou unto thyself an iron pan, and set it up as a wall of iron between thee and the city: and direct thy face against it, that it may be placed in a state of siege, and lay siege against it. This shall be a sign for the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:4 @ And as for thyself, lie upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it shalt thou bear their iniquity.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:5 @ But as for myself, I lay upon thee the years of their iniquity, after the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:12 @ And in form of a barley–cake shalt thou eat it, and this shalt thou bake with balls of human excrement before their eyes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:13 @ And the Lord said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean among the nations whither I will drive them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:14 @ Then said I, Ah Lord Eternal! behold, my soul hath not been defiled; and that which dieth of itself, or is torn in pieces, have I never eaten from my youth up even until now; and never is flesh of abomination come into my mouth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:4 @ And from these again shalt thou take some, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire: therefrom shall a fire go forth unto all the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:5 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, This is Jerusalem, which I had set it in the midst of the nations and countries that are round about her.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:6 @ But she rebelled against my ordinances more wickedly than the nations, and against my statutes, more than the countries that are round about her; for my ordinances they have despised, and as for my statutes, they have not walked in them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:11 @ Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, Surely, because thou hast made unclean my sanctuary with all thy detestable things, and with all thy abominations: therefore will I also diminish; and my eye shall not show pity, and I also will not spare.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:13 @ Thus shall my anger be accomplished, and I will cause my fury to rest upon them, and I will satisfy myself: and they shall know that I the Lord have spoken it in my zeal, when I have let out all my fury on them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:14 @ Yea, I will render thee a ruin, and a disgrace among the nations that are round about thee, before the eyes of every one that passeth by.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:15 @ And she shall be a disgrace and a taunt, a warning and an astonishment unto the nations that are round about thee, when I execute judgments on thee in anger and in fury and in furious chastisements,––I the Lord have spoken it,––

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:2 @ Son of man, set thy face against the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them,

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:3 @ And thou shalt say, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal! Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains, and to the hills, to the brooks, and to the valleys, Behold, I, even I, will bring over you the sword, and I will destroy your high–places.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:5 @ And I will lay the carcasses of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:10 @ And they shall know that I am the Lord: not for naught have I spoken that I would do unto them this evil.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:11 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Strike thy hands together, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the dreadful abominations of the house of Israel! who will have to fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:12 @ He that is afar off shall die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I let out all my fury on them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:2 @ And thou, son of man, thus hath said the Lord Eternal concerning the land of Israel, There is an end! the end is coming over the four corners of the land.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:5 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, An evil, a peculiar evil, behold, is coming.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:6 @ An end is coming, there is coming the end: it waketh up against thee; behold, cometh.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:7 @ The evil decree is come against thee, O thou inhabitant of the land: the time is come, near is the day of tumult, and not the joyful call on the mountains.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:10 @ Behold the day, behold, it is coming; the evil decree is gone forth; the staff hath blossomed, presumption hath budded;

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:11 @ The violence is grown up into the staff of wickedness: nothing is left of them, and nothing of their multitude, and nothing of theirs; and there shall be no lamenting for them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:12 @ The time is coming, the day occurreth; let the buyer not rejoice, and let the seller not mourn; for wrath is against all her multitude.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:13 @ For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although their soul were yet alive; for the vision is against all her multitude; no one shall return; but the soul of every one is fastened to his iniquity, they do not strengthen themselves.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:14 @ They have blown the cornet, every one maketh himself ready; but no one goeth to the battle; for my wrath is against all her multitude.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:15 @ The sword is without, and the pestilence and the famine are within: he that is in the field shall die by the sword; and he that is in the city, him shall famine and pestilence devour.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:16 @ But they that escape of them shall escape, and they shall be on the mountains like the doves of the valleys, all of which are moaning, every one in his iniquity.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:18 @ And people gird themselves with sackcloth, and shuddering covereth them: and upon all faces there is shame, and upon all their heads there is baldness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:19 @ Their silver shall they cast into the streets, and their gold shall be as though it were unclean: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them on the day of the wrath of the Lord; they shall not satisfy their souls, and not fill their bowels; because it was the stumbling–block for their iniquity.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:20 @ And as for the beauty of his ornament, which he had instituted for pride: even therein did they make the images of their abominations, their detestable things; therefore have I rendered it unclean for them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:23 @ Make chains; for the land is full of blood–guiltiness, and the city is full of violence.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:26 @ Mishap shall come upon mishap, and report shall be spread upon report: and then will they seek a vision from the prophet; but the law shall be lost from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:27 @ The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with distress, and the hands of the people of the land shall be powerless: after their way will I do unto them, and according to their own manners will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:2 @ And I saw, and, behold, there was a likeness similar to the appearance of fire; from the appearance of his loins downward, it was fire; and from his loins upward, it was similar to the appearance of a bright light, like the glitter of amber.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:3 @ And he stretched forth the form of a hand, and took me by the locks of my head; and a spirit bore me between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the inner gate that looketh toward the north, where was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provoketh to wrath.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:4 @ And, behold, there was the glory of the God of Israel, like the appearance which I had seen in the valley.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:5 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, do but lift up thy eyes in the direction toward the north. So I lifted up my eyes in the direction toward the north, and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy at the entrance.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:6 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, seest thou what they are doing? great abominations are they that the house of Israel commit here, to make me go far away from my sanctuary; but thou shalt yet see still other great abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:10 @ So I went in and saw; and behold there was every form of creeping things, and cattle, abominations, and all the idols of the house of Israel, engraven upon the wall all round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:11 @ And seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and Yaazanyahu the son of Shaphan standing in the midst of them, were standing before them, and every man had his censer in his hand; and a thick curling cloud of incense was ascending upward.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:12 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the dark, every man in his image–chambers? for they say, The Lord seeth us not: the Lord hath forsaken the earth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:15 @ Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Thou shalt yet again see still other greater abominations than these.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:17 @ Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and they constantly repeat to provoke me to anger; and, lo, they stretch forth the branch to their nose.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:1 @ And he called before my ears with a loud voice, saying, Let those come near that have charge to punish the city, and every man with his destroying weapon in his hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:2 @ And, behold, six men came from the direction of the upper gate, which is turned toward the north, and every man with his weapon of destruction in his hand; and one man in the midst of them was clothed in linen, with a writer’s materials by his side: and they went in, and placed themselves beside the copper altar.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:6 @ The aged, youth, and virgin, and little children, and women shall ye slay and destroy; but come not near any man upon whom the mark is; and at my sanctuary shall ye begin. Then they began with the ancient men who were before the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:8 @ And it came to pass, while they were smiting them, and I alone was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried out, and said, Ah Lord Eternal! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel when thou pourest out thy fury over Jerusalem?

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:9 @ Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and of Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood–guiltiness, and the city full of injustice; for they have said, The Lord hath forsaken the land, and the Lord seeth not.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:11 @ And, behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the writing materials by his side, brought back word, saying, I have done according to all that thou hast commanded me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:7 @ And the one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and lifted it up, and placed it into the hands of the one clothed in linen; who took it, and went out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:15 @ And the cherubim lifted themselves up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river Kebar.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:19 @ And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth before my eyes as they went forth, and the wheels at the same time with them, and halted at the entrance of the east gate of the house of the Lord: and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:20 @ This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Kebar; and I understood that they were cherubim.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:22 @ And the likeness of their faces was the same as the faces which I had seen by the river Kebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one in the direction of his face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:5 @ And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak, Thus hath said the Lord, Thus have ye said, O house of Israel; and whatever cometh into your mind, do I know full well.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:6 @ Ye have multiplied those slain by you in this city, and ye have filled its streets with the slain.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:7 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Those slain by you whom ye have struck down in the midst of it, ––they are the flesh, and this place is the pot; but you are to be removed out of the midst of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:9 @ And I will remove you out of the midst of it, and I will give you up into the hand of strangers, and will execute punishments among you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:11 @ This place shall not be unto you as a pot, so that you should be as flesh in the midst of it; but on the boundary of Israel will I judge you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:13 @ And it came to pass, as I was prophesying, that Pelatyahu the son of Benayah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah Lord Eternal! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:15 @ Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and the whole house of Israel altogether, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Remain you far from the Lord: unto us is this land given for a possession.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:17 @ Therefore say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will both gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries whether ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:22 @ Son of man, what sort of proverb is that which ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are lasting long, and lost is every vision?

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:23 @ Therefore say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will cause this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but speak unto them, The days are coming nigh, and the word of every vision.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:27 @ Son of man, behold, the house of Israel say, The vision that he foreseeth is for distant days, and for times that are far off doth he prophesy.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:2 @ Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto those that prophesy out of their own heart, Hear ye the word of the Lord:

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:4 @ Like foxes among the ruins have been thy prophets, O Israel!

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:5 @ Ye did not go up into the breaches, nor did ye make a fence around the house of Israel to stand in the battle on the day of the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:7 @ Had ye not seen a false vision, and had ye not said a lying divination? and ye say, "The Lord saith," when I have not spoken.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:12 @ And, lo, the wall is fallen down; will it not now be said unto you, Where is the plastering wherewith ye have plastered?

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:15 @ Thus will I let out all my wrath upon the wall, and upon those that have plastered it with unadhesive mortar; and I will say unto you, Gone is the wall, and gone are they that plastered it;

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:19 @ And ye profane me among my people for handfuls of barley and for bits of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to keep alive the souls that should not live, by your lying to my people that listen to lies!

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:22 @ Because ye grieve the heart of the righteous with falsehood, when I have not given him pain; and strengthen the hands of the wicked, so that he should not return from his wicked way, through which he might live.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:1 @ Then came there unto me certain men of the elders of Israel, and sat down before me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:3 @ Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and the stumbling–block of their iniquity have they placed before their faces: shall I in any wise let myself be inquired of by them?

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:15 @ But thou didst trust in thy beauty, and play the harlot because of thy fame, and lavish thy lewd caresses on every one that passed by––on him they were bestowed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:19 @ And my bread which I had given thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey, which I had let thee eat, even this didst thou set before them for a sweet savour: yes, so was it, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:27 @ And, behold, I stretched out my hand over thee, and diminished thy stated portion; and I gave thee up unto the will of those that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who were made to blush for thy incestuous course.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:28 @ Then didst thou play the harlot with the sons of Asshur, because thou wast unsatiable: yea, thou didst play the harlot with them, and wast even then not satisfied.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:29 @ And thou didst multiply thy lewdness with the traders’ land as far as Chaldea; and even with this wast thou not satisfied.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:30 @ How very corrupt is thy heart, saith the Lord Eternal, seeing thou didst all these things, deeds of an abandoned lewd woman;

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:41 @ And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute punishments on thee before the eyes of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from being a harlot, and also the wages shalt thou not give any more.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:44 @ Behold, every one that speaketh in proverbs shall use this proverb against thee, saying, As the mother is, so is her daughter.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:45 @ Thou art thy mother’s daughter, loathing her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who have loathed their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Emorite.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:46 @ And thy elder sister is Samaria, she with her daughters, that dwelleth at thy left hand, and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom with her daughters.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:47 @ Yet not even in their ways didst thou walk, nor act according to their abominations: as though this were quite too little, and thou wast more corrupt than they in all thy ways.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:48 @ As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, Sodom thy sister, she with her daughters, hath not done as thou hast done, thou with thy daughters.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:49 @ Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom: Pride, abundance of food, and prosperous security were hers and her daughters’; but the hand of the poor and needy did she not strengthen.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:51 @ And Samaria hath not committed even the half of thy sins; but thou didst multiply thy abominations more than they; and thou hast justified thy sisters through all thy abominations which thou hast done.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:52 @ Bear then thou also thy own confusion, which thou didst adjudge unto each of thy sisters; through thy sins, which thou hast committed more abominably than they, are they made more righteous than thou: therefore thou also––be ashamed, and bear thy confusion, since thou hast justified thy sisters.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:55 @ And thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former state, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former state, and thou and thy daughters shall return to your former state.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:56 @ And was not thy sister Sodom a report in thy mouth in the days of thy pride,

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:57 @ Before yet thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all those round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, who taunted thee on all sides?

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:59 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will even deal with thee as thou hast done, thou who hast despised the oath by breaking the covenant.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:60 @ Nevertheless will I indeed remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:61 @ And thou shalt then remember thy ways, and be confounded, when thou receivest thy sisters, both those that are older than thou and younger than thou: and I will give them unto thee for daughters, though not because thou wast faithful to the covenant.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:62 @ And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord:

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:2 @ Son of man, put forth a riddle, and propound a parable unto the house of Israel;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:3 @ And say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The great eagle with large wings, long winged, full of feathers, who is rich in many colors, came unto the Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the cedar:

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:7 @ There was also another great eagle with large wings and many feathers: and, behold, this vine did bend its roots famishing toward him, and shot forth its tendrils toward him, that he might water it, from the beds where it was planted;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:10 @ Yea, behold, although it is planted, shall it prosper? Lo, as soon as the east wind toucheth it, shall it be utterly dried up: in the beds where it groweth shall it dry up.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:14 @ That the kingdom should be debased, so as not to lift itself up; that it should keep his covenant that it might continue to exist.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:15 @ But he rebelled against him by sending his messengers into Egypt, that they might give him horses and numerous people. Shall he prosper? shall he escape that doth such things? yea, he hath broken the covenant, and shall he escape?

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:16 @ As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, surely in the residence of the king that hath made him king, whose oath he hath despised, and whose covenant he hath broken, even near him in the midst of Babylon shall he die.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:18 @ Yea, he that hath despised the oath by breaking the covenant, when, lo, he had given his hand, and hath done all these things, shall not escape.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:19 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, As I live, surely my oath that he hath despised, and my covenant that he hath broken,––even this will I bring upon his own head.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:20 @ And I will spread my net over him, and he shall be caught in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will hold judgment with him there for his trespass which he hath committed against me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:21 @ And all his fugitives with all the wings of his army shall fall by the sword, and those that remain shall be dispersed toward all winds: and ye shall know that I the Lord have spoken it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:23 @ On the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it firmly; and it shall produce boughs, and bear fruit, and become an elegant cedar; and there shall dwell under it all fowls, every thing that hath wing; in the shadow of its light branches shall they dwell.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:24 @ And all the trees of the field shall know that I the Lord have made low the high tree, have made high the lowly tree, that I have dried up the green tree, and have caused to flourish the dry tree: I the Lord have spoken and have done it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:18:2 @ What mean ye, that ye use this proverb in the country of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the teeth of the children are set on edge?

lesserot@Ezekiel:18:6 @ Upon the mountains he eateth not, and his eyes he lifteth not up to the idols of the house of Israel, and the wife of his neighbor he defileth not, and unto a woman in her separation he cometh not near;

lesserot@Ezekiel:18:7 @ And he over–reacheth no man, he restoreth his pledge for a debt, a robbery he doth not commit, his bread he giveth to the hungry, and the naked he covereth with a garment;

lesserot@Ezekiel:18:17 @ From the poor he withdraweth his hand, interest and increase he taketh not: my ordinances he executeth; in my statutes he walketh:––he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live.

lesserot@Ezekiel:18:18 @ His father, because he unjustly withheld, was guilty of robbery on his brother, and did that which is not good in the midst of his people,––and lo, he died through his iniquity.

lesserot@Ezekiel:18:22 @ All his transgressions which he hath committed shall not be remembered unto him: through his righteousness which he hath done shall he live.

lesserot@Ezekiel:18:23 @ Have I then the least pleasure in the death of the wicked? saith the Lord Eternal: and not in his turning away from his ways, that he may live?

lesserot@Ezekiel:18:24 @ But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth wrong, and doth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? all his righteousness that he hath done shall not he remembered: through his trespass which he hath committed, and through his sin that he hath done,––through them shall he die.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:15 @ Yet did I also lift up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given, flowing with milk and honey, which is an ornament among all the countries.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:16 @ Because my ordinances they had despised, and in my statutes they had not walked, and my sabbaths they had profaned; for after their idols did their heart go.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:21 @ Nevertheless the children rebelled against me; in my statutes did they not walk, and my ordinances they kept not to do them, which a man is to do, that he may live through them; my sabbaths they profaned: and I then thought to pour out my fury over them, to let out all my anger against them in the wilderness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:23 @ I also lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the countries;

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:22 @ As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall ye be melted in the midst of it: and ye shall know that I am the Lord who have poured out my fury over you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:24 @ Son of man, say unto her, Thou art a land that is not cleansed; which is not rained upon on the day of indignation.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:25 @ The banded troop of her prophets in the midst of her is like a roaring lion that teareth in pieces the prey: souls do they devour; wealth and precious things do they take away; the number of her widows do they increase in the midst of her.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:26 @ Her priests violate my law, and profane my holy things: between the holy and profane do they make no distinction, and the difference between the unclean and the clean do they not make known, and from my sabbaths do they turn away their eyes, so that I am profaned among them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:27 @ Her princes in her midst are like wolves that tear in pieces the prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, in order to obtain selfish gain.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:29 @ The people of the land are guilty of extortion, and practise robbery, and the poor and the needy they defraud: and they extort from the stranger with injustice.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:4 @ And their names were Aholah the elder, and Aholibah her sister; but they became mine, and they bore sons and daughters: and their names are, Samaria is Aholah, and Jerusalem, Aholibah.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:8 @ But also her lewdness from Egypt forsook she not; for they had lain with her in her youth, and they had touched her virgin bosom, and had lavished their lewd caresses on her.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:10 @ These were they that laid open her nakedness; her sons and her daughters did they take away, and her they slew with the sword: and she became infamous among women, when they inflicted the decreed punishments on her.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:11 @ And when her sister Aholibah saw this, she became more corrupt in her longing than she, and in her lewd acts more than her sister’s lewdness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:18 @ And when she had laid open her lewdness, and had uncovered her nakedness: then my soul tore itself away from her, as my soul had torn itself away from her sister.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:20 @ And she longed for her paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose lustfulness is like the lustfulness of horses.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:25 @ And I will set my zealousness against thee, and they shall deal with thee in fury; thy nose and thy ears shall they cut off; and what is left of thee shall fall by the sword: thy sons and thy daughters shall they take away; and what is left of thee shall be devoured by the fire.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:31 @ On the way of thy sister hast thou walked; therefore will I place her cup into thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:32 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The cup of thy sister shalt thou drink, the deep and wide one: thou shalt become to be laughed to scorn and to be held in derision, more than thou canst bear.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:33 @ With drunkenness and sorrow shalt thou be filled, the cup of astonishment and confusion, the cup of thy sister Samaria.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:37 @ That they have committed adultery, and there is blood on their hands, and with their idols have they committed adultery, and also their sons whom they had born unto me have they caused to pass for them through, to devour them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:38 @ Moreover this have they done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary on the same day, and my sabbaths have they profaned.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:45 @ Righteous men, however––these shall judge them as adulteresses are judged, and as women that shed blood are judged; because adulteresses are they, and blood is on their hands.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:2 @ Son of man, write thee down the name of this day, of this same day: the king of Babylon hath advanced against Jerusalem on this same day.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:6 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Woe to the city of blood–guiltiness, to the pot the scum of which is yet in it, and the scum of which is not gone out of it! one of its pieces after the other take out from it: no lot is cast for it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:8 @ To cause my fury to arise to take vengeance, do I place her blood upon the naked rock, so that it shall not be covered up.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:13 @ In thy uncleanness is incest; because I endeavored to cleanse thee, and thou wouldst not be clean, thou shalt not be cleansed from thy uncleanness any more, until I have assuaged my fury on thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:6 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Whereas thou didst clap thy hands, and stamp with thy feet, and rejoice with all thy derision in the soul over the land of Israel:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:7 @ Therefore, behold, will I stretch out my hand over thee, and will give thee up for a spoil to the nations; and I will cut thee off from the people, and I will cause thee to perish out of the countries; I will destroy thee, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:8 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because Moab and Se’ir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:9 @ Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Beth–ha–yeshimoth, Ba’al–me’on, and Kiryathayim,

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:14 @ And I will display my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel; and they shall do in Edom according to my anger and according to my fury: and they shall feel my vengeance, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the Philistines have acted in revenge, and have taken vengeance with derision in their soul, to destroy out of ancient enmity:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:16 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will stretch out my hand against the Philistines, and I will cut off the Kerethim, and destroy the remnant of the of the sea–coast.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:17 @ And I will execute on them great vengeances with furious chastisements: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I display my vengeance on them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:2 @ Son of man, because Tyre hath said concerning Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people; she is turned unto me; I shall be made full, now she is laid in ruins:

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:10 @ By reason of the abundance of his horses shall the dust they raise cover thee: by reason of the noise of horsemen, and wheels, and chariots, shall thy walls quake, when he entereth into thy gates, as men enter into a city that is broken in.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:11 @ With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all thy streets: thy people will he slay with the sword, and the statues of thy strength shall come down to the ground.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:12 @ And they shall plunder thy riches, and make a spoil of thy merchandise; and they shall break down thy walls, and thy pleasure–houses shall they pull down: and thy stones and thy timber and thy earth shall they throw into the midst of the water.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to Tyre, Truly at the noise of thy fall, when the deadly wounded whine, when the slaughter taketh place in the midst of thee, shall the islands quake.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:16 @ Then shall all the princes of the sea come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and their broidered garments shall they put off: with trembling shall they clothe themselves; upon the ground shall they sit, and shall tremble at every moment, and be astonished concerning thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:8 @ The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy oarsmen: thy wise men, O Tyre, that were in thee, these were thy pilots.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:9 @ The elders of Gebal and her wise men were in thee thy caulkers: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in thee to carry on thy commerce.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:12 @ Tharshish was thy merchant through the abundance of all kind of wealth: with silver, iron, tin, and lead, they supplied thy markets.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:14 @ They of the family of Thogarmah furnished thy supplies in horses and horsemen and mules.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:15 @ The men of Dedan were thy merchants; many isles fetched the merchandise from thy place: chamois horns, ivory, and ebony did they bring as presents for thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:17 @ Judah, and the land of Israel, these were thy merchants: in wheat of Minnith, and balsam, and honey, and oil, and balm they carried on thy commerce.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:36 @ The traders among the people shall hiss concerning thee: thou wast rendered as though thou hadst not been, and thou shalt not be any more for ever.

lesserot@Ezekiel:28:3 @ Behold, thou wast wiser than Daniel; no secret was obscure to thee;

lesserot@Ezekiel:28:4 @ With thy wisdom and with thy understanding hadst thou gotten thee riches, and hadst gotten gold and silver into thy treasuries;

lesserot@Ezekiel:28:5 @ By the abundance of thy wisdom in thy traffic hadst thou increased thy riches; and thy heart was lifted up because of thy riches:

lesserot@Ezekiel:28:17 @ Thy heart was lifted up through thy beauty, thou didst corrupt thy wisdom by reason of thy elegance: I cast thee down to the ground, before kings did I set thee that they might gaze on thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:28:18 @ Through the abundance of thy iniquities, through the wickedness of thy commerce didst thou profane thy sanctuaries: therefore brought I forth fire from the midst of thee, this devoured thee, and I changed thee to ashes upon the earth before the eyes of all those that saw thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:29:9 @ And the land of Egypt shall be changed into a waste and ruin, and they shall know that I am the Lord; because he hath said, The stream is mine, and I have made it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:29:18 @ Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath caused his army to perform a great service against Tyre; every head hath been made bald, and every shoulder hath been rubbed sore: yet no reward hath come to him or to his army from Tyre, for the service that he hath performed against it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:29:19 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will give unto Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon the land of Egypt; and he shall carry away its multitude, and take its spoil, and plunder its prey: and this shall be the reward for his army.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, On the day when it went down to the grave I caused a mourning; I covered the deep for its sake, and I restrained its rivers, and the great waters were withheld; and I caused Lebanon to be clothed in black attire for its sake, and all the trees of the field were famished because of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:16 @ Through the noise of its downfall I caused nations to quake, when I cast it down into the tomb with the that descend into the pit: and in the land of the nether world comforted themselves all the trees of ‘Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that were nourished by water.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:30 @ Thus shall they experience that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:5 @ Because thou hast had an undying hatred, and didst surrender the children of Israel to the power of the sword, at the time of their calamity, at the time of the iniquity of the end:

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:8 @ And I will fill his mountains with his slain: as regardeth thy hills, and thy valleys, and all thy ravines, in them shall fall those that are slain by the sword.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:12 @ And thou shalt know that I am the Lord: I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given unto us to consume them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:15 @ As thou didst rejoice over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was made desolate: so will I do unto thee; desolate shalt thou be, O mountain of Se’ir, and all Idumea––altogether; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:1 @ But thou, son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of Israel, and say, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:5 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Idumea, that have appropriated my land unto themselves as a possession with the joy of all their heart, with derision in their soul, in order to drive it out that it may be for a prey.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:6 @ Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say unto the mountains, and to the hills, to the ravines, and to the valleys, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, In my zealousness and in my fury have I spoken, because ye have borne the reproach of the nations:

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:8 @ But ye, O mountains of Israel, ye shall send forth your boughs, and your fruit shall ye bear for my people Israel, for they are near at hand to come.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:10 @ And I will multiply upon you men, all the house of Israel–– altogether; and the cities shall be inhabited again, and the ruins shall be rebuilt;

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:12 @ Yea, I will cause to walk upon you men, even my people Israel, and they shall possess thee, and thou shalt be unto them as an inheritance, and thou shalt not any more henceforth cast them out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:15 @ And I will not let be heard against thee any more the reproach of the nations, and the disgrace of the people shalt thou not bear any more, and thy nations shalt thou not cast out any more, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:17 @ Son of man, the house of Israel, when they dwelt in their own land, defiled it through their way and through their doings: like the uncleanness of a woman in her separation was their way before me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:19 @ And I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings did I judge them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:20 @ And when they were come unto the nations, whither they were gone, they profaned my holy name; because they said of them, These are the people of the Lord, and out of his land are they gone forth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:21 @ But I had pity for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, whither they were gone.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:22 @ Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Not for your sake do I this, O house of Israel, but for the sake of my holy name, which ye have profaned among the nations, whither ye are gone.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:32 @ Not for your sake do I this, saith the Lord Eternal, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded because of your ways, O house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:34 @ And when the desolate land is tilled, instead that it was a waste before the eyes of every passer by:

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:35 @ Then shall they say, This land, that was desolate, is become like the garden of ‘Eden; and the cities that were ruined, and desolate, and broken down, are become fortified, and inhabited.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:36 @ And the nations that are left round about you shall know that I the Lord have built up the broken–down, have planted the desolate: I the Lord have spoken this, and have done it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:37 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Also in this will I yet suffer myself to be entreated of by the house of Israel, to do it for them, I will increase them with men like flocks.

lesserot@Ezekiel:38:13 @ Sheba, and Dedan, and the traders of Tharshish, with all her young lions, will say unto thee, Art thou come to plunder the spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to carry off the prey? to bear away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to plunder a great spoil?

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:21 @ And its cells were three on this side and three on that side; and its door–posts and its porches were after the measure of the first gate: fifty cubits was its length, and its breadth five and twenty cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:14 @ When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the sanctuary into the outer court; but there shall they lay down their garments wherein they may have ministered; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall then approach to which is for the people.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:15 @ Now when he had finished the measurings of the inner house, he led me forth by the way of the gate which looked in an eastern direction, and measured it all round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:13 @ And these are the measures of the altar in cubits, The cubit is a cubit and a hand–breadth; and the bottom shall be a cubit high, and a cubit broad, and its border on its edge round about shall be a span: and this shall be the outside of the altar.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:18 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, These are the statutes of the altar on the day when it shall be finished, to offer thereon burnt–offerings, and to sprinkle thereon blood.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:19 @ And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that are of the seed of Zadok, who approach unto me, saith the Lord Eternal, to minister unto me, a young bullock for a sin–offering.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:20 @ And thou shalt take of his blood, and put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the projection, and upon the border round about; and thou shalt cleanse it and make an atonement for it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:22 @ And on the second day shalt thou offer a he–goat without blemish for a sin–offering: and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bullock.

lesserot@Ezekiel:46:23 @ And there was a shelf of masonry round about in them, round about all these four, and it was furnished with hearths for boiling under the shelves round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:1 @ And he brought me back again unto the door of the house: and, behold, water was issuing out from under the threshold of the house eastward; for the front of the house stood toward the east; and the water came down from under, from the right side of the house, to the south of the altar.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:3 @ When the man went forth eastward, having the measuring–line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he led me through the water, the water reaching to the ankles.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:6 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this: Then did he lead me, and caused me to return to the bank of the stream.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:8 @ Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the eastern district, and go down into the plain, and fall into the sea, being carried forth into the sea, so that the waters shall be healed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:9 @ And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the double–stream shall come, shall live: and the fish shall be in great abundance; for when this water shall have come thither, shall be healed, and every thing shall live whither the stream cometh.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:10 @ And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand by it; from ‘En–gedi even unto ‘En–’eglayim, there shall be places for the spreading out of nets: after their various kinds shall the fish thereof be, like the fish of the great sea, exceedingly many.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:12 @ And by the stream upon its banks, on this side and on that side, shall grow up all kinds of trees for food, the leaves of which shall not fade, and the fruit of which shall not come to an end, every month shall they bring forth new ripe fruit; because its water is that which issueth out of the sanctuary; and their fruit shall serve for food, and their leaves for remedies.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:13 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, This shall be the boundary, whereby ye shall divide out the land unto the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:14 @ And ye shall inherit it, every one like the other, concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for an inheritance.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:15 @ And this shall be the boundary of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, the road to Chethlon, as far as to Zedad;

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:16 @ Chamath, Berothah, Sibrayim, which is between the boundary of Damascus and the boundary of Chamath; Chazar–hattichon, which is by the boundary of Chavran.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:17 @ And the boundary shall be from the sea to Chazar–’enon, the boundary of Damascus, and the northern part on the north, and the boundary of Chamath. And this is the north side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:18 @ And the east side shall ye measure between Chavran and Damascus, and between Gil’ad and the land of Israel by the Jordan, from the boundary unto the east sea. And this is the east side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:19 @ And the south side; on the south, from Thamar even to the waters of contention at Kadesh, toward the brook into the Great Sea. And this is the south side on the south.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:20 @ And the west side shall be the great sea from the boundary, as far as straight up to Chamath. This is the west side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:21 @ And ye shall divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:22 @ And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance among yourselves, and to the strangers that sojourn in the midst of you, who shall have begotten children in the midst of you; and they shall be unto you as the native born among the children of Israel: with you shall they obtain an inheritance in the midst of the tribes of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:23 @ And it shall come to pass that in whatever tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:48:11 @ Unto the priests, that are sanctified, of the sons of Zadok, who have kept my charge, who went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray.

lesserot@Ezekiel:48:14 @ But they shall not sell aught thereof, or exchange, or alienate this first portion of the land; for it is holy unto the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:48:18 @ And the produce of the residue in length alongside the holy oblation ten thousand rods eastward, and ten thousand westward, that which is alongside the holy oblation, shall be for food unto the laborers of the city.

lesserot@Ezekiel:48:31 @ And of the gates of the city, being after the names of the tribes of Israel, shall be three gates on the north: the gate of Reuben one, the gate of Judah one, the gate of Levi one.

lesserot@Ezekiel:48:33 @ And the south side, five hundred and four thousand rode by the measure, with three gates: the gate of Simeon one, the gate of Issachar one, the gate of Zebulun one.

lesserot@Ezekiel:48:35 @ All around it shall be eighteen thousand rods: and the name of the city shall be from that day "The Lord is there."

lesserot@Daniel:1:2 @ And the Lord gave up into his hand Yehoyakim the king of Judah, with part of the vessels of the house of God: and he brought them into the land of Shin’ar into the house of his god, namely, he brought the vessels into the treasure–house of his god.

lesserot@Daniel:1:3 @ And the king said unto Ashpenas, the chief of his eunuchs, that he should bring out of the children of Israel, and of the royal seed, and of the nobles,

lesserot@Daniel:1:4 @ lads in whom there should be no kind of blemish, but who should be handsome in appearance, and intelligent in all wisdom, and acquainted with knowledge, and understanding science, and such as should have the ability to serve in the king’s palace, and that these should be taught the learning and the language of the Chaldeans.

lesserot@Daniel:1:5 @ And the king ordered for them a daily provision for its day of the king’s food, and of the wine which he drank, and to educate them three years, so that at the end thereof they should serve before the king.

lesserot@Daniel:1:6 @ Now there were among these of the children of Judah, Daniel, Chananyah, Mishael, and ‘Azaryah.

lesserot@Daniel:1:7 @ And the chief of the eunuchs assigned them names; and he assigned to Daniel the name of Belteshazzar; and to Chananyah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to ‘Azaryah, of ‘Abed–nego.

lesserot@Daniel:1:8 @ But Daniel resolved in his heart that he would not defile himself with the food of the king, nor with the wine which he drank: and therefore he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not need to defile himself.

lesserot@Daniel:1:11 @ Then said Daniel to the steward whom the chief of the eunuchs had given charge over Daniel, Chananyah, Mishael, and ‘Azaryah,

lesserot@Daniel:1:14 @ And he hearkened unto them in this matter, and proved them ten days.

lesserot@Daniel:1:17 @ But as regardeth all these four lads, God gave them knowledge and intelligence in all learning and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.

lesserot@Daniel:1:19 @ And the king spoke with them; and there was not found among them all any one like Daniel, Chananyah, Mishael, and ‘Azaryah: and so they served before the king.

lesserot@Daniel:1:20 @ And in every matter of wise understanding, which the king required of them, he found them ten times superior above all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:2:1 @ And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, whereat his spirit was troubled, and his sleep that was upon him was gone.

lesserot@Daniel:2:2 @ Then said the king to call the magicians, and the astrologers and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, to solve for the king his dreams: and they came and placed themselves before the king.

lesserot@Daniel:2:3 @ And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.

lesserot@Daniel:2:5 @ The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The decree is firmly resolved on by me: If ye do not make known unto me the dream with its interpretation, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be changed into a dunghill.

lesserot@Daniel:2:7 @ They answered the second time and said, Let the king recite the dream to his servants, and we will tell its interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:8 @ The king answered and said, I know of a certainty that ye wish to gain time, because ye see the decree is firmly resolved on by me:

lesserot@Daniel:2:9 @ That if ye do not make known unto me the dream, there is but one sentence for you; for ye have prepared lying and deceptive words to speak before me, till the time be changed. Therefore relate to me the dream, and I shall know that ye can tell me its interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:10 @ The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the habitable earth that can tell the king’s matter: wherefore no mighty and powerful king ever hath asked such a thing of any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.

lesserot@Daniel:2:11 @ And the matter which the king requireth is difficult, and there is no other that can tell it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.

lesserot@Daniel:2:12 @ For all this cause the king became angry, and very furious; and he commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:13 @ And the law went forth and the wise men were slain: and they sought Daniel and his companions to slay them.

lesserot@Daniel:2:14 @ Then made Daniel representations with intelligence and prudence to Aryoch the captain of the king’s guard, who was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:15 @ He commenced and said to Aryoch the king’s commander, Wherefore is the law so hasty from the king? Then made Aryoch the matter known to Daniel.

lesserot@Daniel:2:17 @ Then went Daniel to his house, and made the matter known to Chananyah, Mishael, and ‘Azaryah, his companions.

lesserot@Daniel:2:18 @ In order that they might pray for mercy of the God of heaven concerning this secret: so that Daniel and his companions might not be destroyed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:19 @ Thereupon was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a vision of the night. Then did Daniel bless the God of heaven.

lesserot@Daniel:2:20 @ Daniel commenced and said, May the name of God be blessed from eternity and to all eternity; for wisdom and might are his;

lesserot@Daniel:2:21 @ And he changeth times and seasons; he removeth kings, and raiseth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to those that possess understanding.

lesserot@Daniel:2:22 @ He it is that revealeth what is deep and secret; he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.

lesserot@Daniel:2:23 @ To thee, O God of my father, do I give thanks, and I praise thee, who hast given me wisdom and might, and because thou hast made known unto me what we prayed for of thee; for thou hast made known unto us the king’s matter.

lesserot@Daniel:2:24 @ Therefore did Daniel go in unto Aryoch, whom the king had ordered to destroy the wise men of Babylon, He went and said thus unto him, the wise men of Babylon must thou not destroy: bring me before the king, and I will tell unto the king the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:27 @ Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded no wise men, astrologers, magicians, or soothsayers, can tell unto the king;

lesserot@Daniel:2:28 @ But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and he hath made known to king Nebuchadnezzar what is to be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy couch, were these.

lesserot@Daniel:2:29 @ As for thee, O king, thy thoughts, when thou wast on thy couch, rose concerning what is to come to pass hereafter; and the Revealer of secrets hath made known to thee what is to come to pass.

lesserot@Daniel:2:30 @ But as for me, this secret hath not been revealed to me because of any wisdom that is in me more than in all other living; but for the sake that men might make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest understand the thoughts of thy heart.

lesserot@Daniel:2:31 @ Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was a large image; this image was mighty, and its brightness was excellent; it stood opposite to thee; and its form was fear–inspiring.

lesserot@Daniel:2:32 @ As regardeth this image, its head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms were of silver, its belly and its thighs of copper,

lesserot@Daniel:2:36 @ This is the dream; and its interpretation will we relate before the king.

lesserot@Daniel:2:39 @ And after thee there will arise another kingdom inferior to thee; and another third kingdom of copper, which will bear rule over all the earth.

lesserot@Daniel:2:45 @ Whereas thou sawest that out of the mountain a stone tore itself loose, not through hands, and that it ground up the iron, the copper, the clay, the silver, and the gold: the great God hath made known to the king what is to come to pass after this. And the dream is reliable, and its interpretation certain.

lesserot@Daniel:2:46 @ Then did king Nebuchadnezzar fall upon his face, and he bowed down to Daniel, and ordered that they should offer an oblation and sweet odors unto him.

lesserot@Daniel:2:47 @ The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth it is, that your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and the revealer of secrets; because thou hast been able to reveal this secret.

lesserot@Daniel:2:48 @ Then did the king elevate Daniel, and gave him many great presents, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the superintendents over all the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:3:4 @ Then a herald called out with a loud voice, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,

lesserot@Daniel:3:12 @ There are certain Jewish men whom thou hast appointed over the public service of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego: these men, O king, have not paid any regard to thee; thy god they do not worship, and to the golden image which thou hast set up they do not bow themselves.

lesserot@Daniel:3:14 @ Nebuchadnezzar commenced and said unto them, Is it out of disrespect, O Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego? My god ye do not worship, and to the golden image which I have set up ye do not bow yourselves?

lesserot@Daniel:3:15 @ Now then if ye be ready at the time when ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, guitar, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, to fall down and bow yourselves to the image which I have made,; but if ye bow yourselves not, ye shall be cast in the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace: and who is the God that can deliver you out of my hand?

lesserot@Daniel:3:16 @ Then answered Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee a word in this matter.

lesserot@Daniel:3:17 @ Behold, there is our God whom we worship, he is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace: and out of thy hand, O king, will he deliver us.

lesserot@Daniel:3:19 @ Then was Nebuchadnezzar filled with fury, and the form of his countenance was changed because of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego; he commenced and ordered that they should heat the furnace thoroughly seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

lesserot@Daniel:3:20 @ And he ordered the mightiest men in strength that were in his army, to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:24 @ Then was king Nebuchadnezzar astonished, and he rose up in haste, commenced, and said unto his counsellors, Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, Certainly, O king.

lesserot@Daniel:3:25 @ He answered and said, Lo, I see four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire, and there is no injury on them; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.

lesserot@Daniel:3:28 @ Then commenced Nebuchadnezzar, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that had trusted in him, and had transgressed the king’s word, and yielded up their bodies, that they might not worship no bow themselves to any god, except their own God.

lesserot@Daniel:3:29 @ Therefore do I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, that may speak any thing disrespectful against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be changed into a dunghill; because there is no other God that can deliver like this one.

lesserot@Daniel:5:1 @ King Belshazzar prepared a great feast for a thousand of his lords, and before these thousand did he drink wine.

lesserot@Daniel:5:2 @ Belshazzar ordered, through the counsel of the wine, to bring in the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken away out of the temple which was in Jerusalem: that the king, and his lords, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therefrom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:3 @ Then they brought in the golden vessels that were taken away out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his lords, his wives, and his concubines, drank from them.

lesserot@Daniel:5:4 @ They drank wine, and praised their gods of gold, and of silver, of copper, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

lesserot@Daniel:5:6 @ Then was the king’s color changed, and his thoughts troubled him: so that the bands of his loins were loosed, and his knees knocked one against the other.

lesserot@Daniel:5:7 @ the king called with might to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king commenced, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whatsoever man will read this writing, and tell me its interpretation, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall rule as the third in the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:8 @ Then came in all the wise men of the king; but they were not able to read the writing, nor to make its interpretation known to the king.

lesserot@Daniel:5:9 @ Then was king Belshazzar greatly terrified, and his color was changed on him, and his lords were confounded.

lesserot@Daniel:5:10 @ the queen in consequence of the words of the king and of his lords came into the banquet–house; the queen commenced and said, O king, live for ever; let thy thoughts not trouble thee, nor let thy color be changed:

lesserot@Daniel:5:11 @ There is a man in thy kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father enlightenment and intelligence and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him: and king Nebuchadnezzar thy father appointed him chief of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers:––yes, thy father, O king.––

lesserot@Daniel:5:14 @ And I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that enlightenment and intelligence and superior wisdom are found in thee.

lesserot@Daniel:5:15 @ And now the wise men, the astrologers, had been brought before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me its interpretation; but they were not able to tell the interpretation of the matter.

lesserot@Daniel:5:20 @ But, when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened to deal presumptuously, he was cast down from the throne of his kingdom, and his dignity did they take from him;

lesserot@Daniel:5:21 @ And from the sons of men was he driven forth, and his heart became equal with the beasts, and with the wild asses was his dwelling; they suffered him to eat herbs like oxen, and with the dew of heaven was his body made wet: till he acknowledged that the most high God ruleth over the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he pleaseth.

lesserot@Daniel:5:22 @ And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though thou knewest all this;

lesserot@Daniel:5:23 @ But against the Lord of heaven hast thou lifted thyself up; and the vessels of his house have they brought before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine from them; and the gods of silver, and gold, of copper, iron, wood, and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor know, hast thou praised; and the God in whose hand thy soul is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:

lesserot@Daniel:5:24 @ Thereupon was sent from before him the part of the hand, and this writing was noted down.

lesserot@Daniel:5:25 @ And this is the writing that was noted down, M’ne, M’ne, T’kel, Upharsin.

lesserot@Daniel:5:26 @ This the interpretation of the matter: M’ne, God hath numbered thy kingdom, and made an end of it.

lesserot@Daniel:5:28 @ P’ress; Thy kingdom hath been divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians.

lesserot@Daniel:5:29 @ Then gave Belshazzar the order, and they clothed Daniel with purple, with a chain of gold about his neck, and they made a proclamation concerning him, that he should rule as the third in the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:7:1 @ In the first year of Belshazzar the king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream and the visions of his head while on his couch: afterward he wrote down the dream, relating the principal things.

lesserot@Daniel:7:2 @ Daniel commenced and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of heaven blew fiercely on the great sea.

lesserot@Daniel:7:5 @ And behold there was another, a second beast, like a bear, and on one side was it placed, with three ribs in its mouth between its teeth: and thus they said unto it, Arise, eat much flesh.

lesserot@Daniel:7:6 @ After this I looked, and lo there was another, like a leopard; and it had four wings of a bird on its back: the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given unto it.

lesserot@Daniel:7:7 @ After this I looked in the night visions, and behold there was a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and ground up, and what was left it stamped with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.

lesserot@Daniel:7:8 @ I looked carefully at the horns, and, behold, another little horn came up between them, and three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots before the same; and, behold, there were eyes like the eyes of man in this horn, with a mouth speaking presumptuous things.

lesserot@Daniel:7:9 @ I was looking until chairs were set down, and an Ancient of days seated himself, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of whose head was like clean wool; his chair was like flames of fire, and his wheels like fire that burnt;

lesserot@Daniel:7:10 @ A stream of fire issued and came forth from before him; thousand times thousands ministered unto him, and myriad times myriads stood before him: they sat down to hold judgment, and the books were opened.

lesserot@Daniel:7:13 @ I looked in the nightly visions, and, behold, with the clouds of heaven came one like a son of man, and he attained as far as the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.

lesserot@Daniel:7:14 @ And there were given him dominion, and dignity, and government, and all people, nations, and languages had to serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom is one which shall never be destroyed.

lesserot@Daniel:7:15 @ My spirit was deeply shaken within me, Daniel, in the midst of its tenement, and the visions of my head troubled me.

lesserot@Daniel:7:16 @ I came near unto one of those that stood by, and asked him something certain concerning all this: and he spoke to me, and made known unto me the interpretation of the things.

lesserot@Daniel:7:17 @ These great beasts, of which there are four, are four kings, who are to arise on the earth.

lesserot@Daniel:7:19 @ Then I desired what is certain concerning the fourth beast, which was different from all these others, exceedingly dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and whose nails of copper; which devoured, ground up, and stamped with its feet what was left;

lesserot@Daniel:7:23 @ Thus said he, The fourth beast a fourth kingdom will be upon earth, which is to be different from all kingdoms, and will devour all the earth, and will tread it down, and grind it up.

lesserot@Daniel:7:24 @ And the ten horns out of this kingdom that ten kings will arise; and another will rise after them, and he will be different from the first, and three kings will he bring low.

lesserot@Daniel:7:25 @ And he will speak words against the Most High, and the saints of the Most High will he oppress, and think to change the festivals and the law: and they will be given up into his hand until a time and times and half a time.

lesserot@Daniel:7:26 @ But they will sit down to hold judgment, and they will take away his dominion, to destroy and to annihilate it unto the end.

lesserot@Daniel:7:27 @ And the kingdom and the dominion, and the power over the kingdoms under the whole heaven, will be given to the people of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all governments are to worship and obey him.

lesserot@Daniel:7:28 @ Thus far is the end of the speech. As for me Daniel, my reflections troubled me greatly, and my color was changed on me; but I kept the speech in my heart.

lesserot@Daniel:8:1 @ In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, to me Daniel, after that which had appeared unto me at the first.

lesserot@Daniel:8:2 @ And I saw in the vision––and it came to pass, in my seeing, that I was at Shushan the capital, which is in the province of ‘Elam; ––and I saw in the vision, as though I was by the river Ulai.

lesserot@Daniel:8:4 @ I saw the ram butting westward, and northward, and southward; so that all the beasts could not stand before him, and no one was there to deliver out of his hand: and he did according to his will, and became great.

lesserot@Daniel:8:5 @ And as I was looking attentively, behold, there came a shaggy, he–goat from the west over the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground; and the goat had a sightly large horn between his eyes.

lesserot@Daniel:8:6 @ And he came as far as the ram that had two horns, that I had seen standing before the river, and ran at him with his furious power.

lesserot@Daniel:8:7 @ And I saw him coming close unto the ram, and he became bitterly enraged against him, and he struck the ram, and broke his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand forward before him: and he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him; and there was no one to deliver the ram out of his hand.

lesserot@Daniel:8:11 @ Yea, it magnified itself even up to the prince of the host, and by it the continual sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

lesserot@Daniel:8:12 @ And the host is given up together with the continual sacrifice, by reason of transgression: and it casteth down the truth to the ground, and it doth, and is prosperous.

lesserot@Daniel:8:13 @ Then did I hear a certain holy one speaking, and a holy one said unto the unknown one who was speaking, For how long is the vision concerning the continual sacrifice, and the wasting transgression, to give up both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?

lesserot@Daniel:8:15 @ And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, saw the vision, and sought for understanding, that, behold, there was standing opposite to me something like the appearance of a man.

lesserot@Daniel:8:16 @ And I heard the voice of a man between the Ulai, and it called, and said, Gabriel, cause this one to understand this appearance.

lesserot@Daniel:8:17 @ So he came close to where I stood: and when he came, I was terrified, and I fell upon my face; but he said unto me, Mark it well, O son of man; because for the time of the end is the vision.

lesserot@Daniel:8:19 @ And he said, Behold, I will make known unto thee what is to be at the last end of the indignation; for it is for the appointed time of the end.

lesserot@Daniel:8:21 @ And the shaggy he–goat is the king of Javan; and the great horn which is between his eyes is the first king.

lesserot@Daniel:8:22 @ But that it was broken, and that four sprung up in its stead, four kingdoms will spring up out of the nation, but not with his power.

lesserot@Daniel:8:23 @ And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have filled their measure of guilt, there will arise a king of an impudent face, and understanding deep schemes.

lesserot@Daniel:8:24 @ And his power will be mighty, but not by his own power; and he will destroy wonderfully, and will prosper while he doth; and he will destroy very many and the people of the saints.

lesserot@Daniel:8:25 @ And through his intelligence, and because he prospereth, is craftiness in his hand; and in his heart will he magnify himself, and in peace will he destroy many: he will also stand up against the Prince of princes; but without a human hand will he be broken.

lesserot@Daniel:8:26 @ And the appearance of the evening and the morning which was spoken of is true: but do thou keep the vision closed up;

lesserot@Daniel:9:2 @ In the first year of his reign, I Daniel searched in the books for understanding concerning the number of the years whereof the word of the Lord had come to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would let pass full seventy years over the ruins of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Daniel:9:4 @ And I prayed unto the Lord my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and terrible God, who keepeth the covenant and kindness to those that love him, and to those that keep his commandments:

lesserot@Daniel:9:7 @ Thine, O Lord, is the righteousness, but unto us belongeth the shame of face, as it is this day,––to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, those that are near, and those that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass which they have trespassed against thee.

lesserot@Daniel:9:10 @ And we have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us through means of his servants the prophets.

lesserot@Daniel:9:11 @ Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, and have departed so as not to obey thy voice: therefore was poured out over us the curse, with the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God; because we had sinned against him.

lesserot@Daniel:9:12 @ And he hath accomplished his words, which he had spoken concerning us, and concerning our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil, which was never done under the whole heaven as it hath been done in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Daniel:9:13 @ As it is written in the law of Moses; all this evil came over us: yet offered we not any entreaty before the Lord our God, to return from our iniquities, and to become intelligent in thy truth.

lesserot@Daniel:9:14 @ Therefore did the Lord watch over the evil, and he brought it upon us; for the Lord our God is righteous because of all his deeds which he hath done; but we have not obeyed his voice.

lesserot@Daniel:9:15 @ And now, O Lord our God, who hast brought forth thy people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thyself a name, as it is this day: we have sinned, we have done wickedly.

lesserot@Daniel:9:17 @ And now listen, O our God, to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary which is desolate, for the sake of the Lord.

lesserot@Daniel:9:18 @ Incline, O my God, thy ear, and hear; open thy eyes, and look on our desolations, and the city whereupon thy name is called: for not on our acts of righteousness do we present humbly our supplications before thee, but on thy great mercies.

lesserot@Daniel:9:19 @ O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do it; delay it not; for thy own sake, O my God; for thy name is called upon thy city and upon thy people.

lesserot@Daniel:9:20 @ And while I was yet speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication humbly before the Lord my God because of the holy mountain of my God:

lesserot@Daniel:9:21 @ Yea, while I was yet speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, came, flying swiftly, near me about the time of the evening oblation.

lesserot@Daniel:9:24 @ Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to close up the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to atone for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy thing.

lesserot@Daniel:9:26 @ And after the sixty and two weeks will an anointed one be cut off without a successor to follow him: and the city and the sanctuary will the people of the prince that is coming destroy; but his end will come in a violent overthrow; but until the end of the war devastations are decreed.

lesserot@Daniel:9:27 @ And he will make a strong covenant with the many for one week; and in the half of the week will he cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and this because of the prevalence of the abominations which bringeth devastation, and until destruction and what is decreed shall be poured out upon the waster.

lesserot@Daniel:10:1 @ In the third year of Cyrus the king of Persia a word was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the word is the truth, but the time appointed is long off: and he noted the word, and took notice of it in the appearance.

lesserot@Daniel:10:4 @ And on the four and twentieth day of the first month, while I was by the side of the great river, which is Chiddekel,

lesserot@Daniel:10:5 @ I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold there was a certain man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz;

lesserot@Daniel:10:6 @ And his body was also like the chrysolite, and his face, like the appearance of lightning, and his eyes were like torches of fire, and his arms and his feet, like the color of polished copper, and the sound of his words was like the noise of a multitude.

lesserot@Daniel:10:7 @ And I Daniel saw alone this appearance; but the men that were with me did not see the appearance: nevertheless a great terror fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.

lesserot@Daniel:10:8 @ And I was left by myself alone, and I saw this great appearance, and there remained no strength in me; and my healthy color was changed on me into corruption, and I retained no strength.

lesserot@Daniel:10:9 @ Then heard I the sound of his words; and as I heard the sound of his words, I sank in amazement on my face, with my face toward the ground.

lesserot@Daniel:10:11 @ And he said unto me, O Daniel, the man greatly beloved, mark well the words that I speak unto thee, and stand on thy standing–place; for now have I been sent unto thee. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood up trembling.

lesserot@Daniel:10:14 @ Now am I come to make thee understand what is to befall thy people, in the latter days; for the vision is yet for the days.

lesserot@Daniel:10:17 @ And how shall the servant of this my lord be able to speak with this my lord? And as for me, from that moment there remained no strength in me, and no breath was left in me.

lesserot@Daniel:10:20 @ Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I am come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia; and as I am going forth, lo, the prince of Javan is coming.

lesserot@Daniel:10:21 @ Nevertheless will I tell thee what is noted down in the writing of truth:––and there is none that holdeth with me against those, except Michael your prince.

lesserot@Daniel:11:1 @ And I in the first year of Darius the Mede had my station to assist and to protect him.

lesserot@Daniel:11:2 @ And now will I tell thee the truth. Behold, there will stand up yet three kings of Persia: and the fourth will obtain far greater riches than all: and when he is strong through his riches will he stir up all, the kingdom of Javan.

lesserot@Daniel:11:3 @ And then will stand up a mighty king, who will rule with great dominion, and do according to his pleasure.

lesserot@Daniel:11:4 @ And when he shall have stood, his kingdom will be broken, and will be divided toward the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled; for his kingdom will be torn asunder even for others beside those.

lesserot@Daniel:11:5 @ And the king of the south will become strong, yea, he who is one of his princes; but will become strong against him, and will rule: a great dominion will his dominion be.

lesserot@Daniel:11:6 @ But at the end of years will they associate themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make a settlement of difficulties; but she will not retain the power of the support; neither will he stand, nor his support: but she will be given up with those that had brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in those times.

lesserot@Daniel:11:7 @ But there will up a sprout of her roots in his place, and he will come to the army, and will enter into the stronghold of the king of the north, and will deal with them, and prevail:

lesserot@Daniel:11:9 @ But this one will then enter the kingdom of the king of the south, and then return into his own land.

lesserot@Daniel:11:10 @ But his sons will commence a war, and assemble a multitude of great armies; and one will certainly enter, and overflow, and pass along: then will he return, and make war again, even to his stronghold.

lesserot@Daniel:11:11 @ And the king of the south will be moved with bitter wrath, and go forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he will set forth a great multitude; but the multitude will be given up into his hand.

lesserot@Daniel:11:12 @ And the multitude will be lifted up, and his heart will become proud; and he will cast down myriads; but he will not be strengthened by it.

lesserot@Daniel:11:14 @ And in those times many will stand up against the king of the south: also the rebellious sons of thy people will lift themselves up to establish the vision; but they will stumble.

lesserot@Daniel:11:15 @ And the king of the north will come, and cast up a mound, and capture the city defended by fortifications: and the arms of the south will not withstand, and as regardeth his chosen people, there will be no power to withstand.

lesserot@Daniel:11:16 @ But he that cometh against them will do according to his pleasure, and none will stand before him; and he will place himself in the glorious land, which will be altogether in his hand.

lesserot@Daniel:11:17 @ He will also direct his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, having professions of peace with him; and thus will he do it: and he will give him the daughter of his wife to destroy it: but it will not stand, and it will not remain his.

lesserot@Daniel:11:18 @ And he will direct his face unto the isles, and capture many; but a chieftain will cause to cease his reproach against him: without his giving back to him his own reproach.

lesserot@Daniel:11:19 @ Then will he direct his face toward the strong–holds of his own land; but he will stumble and fall, and will no more be found.

lesserot@Daniel:11:20 @ And there will stand up in his place one who will cause the exactor to pass through the glorious of the kingdom; but within a few days will he be broken, but not in anger, nor in battle.

lesserot@Daniel:11:21 @ And there will stand up in his place a despicable person, to whom they assigned not the honor of the kingdom; but he will come in quietly, and lay hold of the kingdom by flatteries.

lesserot@Daniel:11:23 @ And from the time of his associating with him will he deal deceitfully; and he will come up, and obtain the victory with a small number of people.

lesserot@Daniel:11:24 @ In quiet and into the fattest portion of the province will he enter; and he will do what his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers: the prey, and spoil, and riches will he divide freely to them, and against the strong–holds will he devise his plans, but only till a certain time.

lesserot@Daniel:11:25 @ And he will then stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army: and the king of the south will prepare himself for the war with an exceedingly great and mighty army; but he will not stand; for they will devise plans against him.

lesserot@Daniel:11:26 @ Yea, they that eat of his food will bring his downfall, and the army of the other will overflow; and many will fall down slain.

lesserot@Daniel:11:27 @ And as for both these kings, their heart is bent on mischief, and at one table will they speak lies; but it shall not prosper; for the end is yet for the time appointed.

lesserot@Daniel:11:28 @ Then will he return into his land with great riches, and his heart will be against the holy covenant: and he will do it, and return to his own land.

lesserot@Daniel:11:31 @ And the army divisions will proceed from him, and they will defile the sanctuary, the fortress, and remove the continual sacrifice, and they will set up the desolating abomination.

lesserot@Daniel:11:35 @ And some of the intelligent will stumble, to make a purification among them, and to select and to cleanse them, until the time of the end; because it is yet for the time appointed.

lesserot@Daniel:11:36 @ And the king will do according to his pleasure; and he will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and against the God of gods will he speak incredible things, and he will prosper till the indignation be at an end; for that which is determined will be accomplished.

lesserot@Daniel:11:37 @ And to the gods of his fathers will he pay no regard; and to the desire of women, or to any god whatever will he not pay any regard; for above all will he magnify himself.

lesserot@Daniel:11:38 @ But in his place he will pay honor to the god of the fortresses; and to a god whom his fathers knew not will he pay honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and costly things.

lesserot@Daniel:11:39 @ This will he do for the very strong fortresses together with the strange god: whoever will acknowledge him, him will he give much honor; and he will cause such to rule over many, and he will divide out the land for a price.

lesserot@Daniel:11:41 @ And he will enter into the glorious land, and much will be overthrown; but these will escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the first portion of the children of ‘Ammon.

lesserot@Daniel:11:42 @ And he will stretch forth his hand against some countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape.

lesserot@Daniel:11:43 @ And he will have control over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the costly things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians will follow at his steps.

lesserot@Daniel:11:45 @ And he will pitch the tents of his palace between seas and the glorious holy mountain; and he will come to his end, without one to help him.

lesserot@Daniel:12:1 @ And at that time will Michael, the great prince who standeth for the children of thy people, stand forth; and there will be a time of distress, such as hath never been since the existence of any nation, until that same time; and at that time shall thy people be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

lesserot@Daniel:12:2 @ And many of those that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to disgrace and everlasting abhorrence.

lesserot@Daniel:12:5 @ Then I Daniel looked, and behold, there were two others standing, the one on this side of the bank of the stream, and the other on that side of the bank of the stream.

lesserot@Daniel:12:7 @ Then heard I the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream; and he lifted up his right hand and his left hand unto the heavens, and swore by the Everliving One that after a time, times, and a half, and when there shall be an end to the crushing of the power of the holy people, all these things shall be ended.

lesserot@Daniel:12:12 @ Happy is he that waiteth, and attaineth to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

lesserot@Daniel:12:13 @ But thou, go toward the end; and thou shalt rest, and arise again for thy lot at the end of the days.

lesserot@Hosea:1:1 @ The word of the Lord that came unto Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of ‘Uzziyah, Jotham, Achaz, Hezekiah, the kings of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo’am the son of Joash the king of Israel.

lesserot@Hosea:1:4 @ And the Lord said unto him, Call his name Yizre’el; for but yet a little while, when I will visit the blood of Yizre’el upon the house of Jehu, and I will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.

lesserot@Hosea:1:5 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Yizre’el.

lesserot@Hosea:1:6 @ And she conceived again, and bore a daughter: and he said unto him, Call her name Lo–ruchamah; for I will not farther have any more mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will give them their full recompense.

lesserot@Hosea:1:9 @ Then said he, Call his name Lo–’ammi; for ye are not my people, and I will indeed not be unto you.

lesserot@Hosea:3:1 @ Then said the Lord unto me, Go once more, love a woman beloved of her husband, yet committing adultery; like the love of the Lord toward the children of Israel, who turn themselves after other gods, and love flagons of wine.

lesserot@Hosea:3:4 @ For many days shall the children of Israel abide without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without a standing image, and without an ephod and theraphim.

lesserot@Hosea:3:5 @ After that will the children of Israel return, and seek for the Lord their God and David their king; and fearing will they hasten to the Lord and to his goodness in the latter days,

lesserot@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel; for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land; because there is no truth, nor kindness, nor knowledge of God in the land.

lesserot@Hosea:4:2 @ There is false swearing, and lying, and murdering, and stealing, and committing adultery: they break the bounds, and blood toucheth on blood.

lesserot@Hosea:4:3 @ Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the heaven; yea, also the fishes of the sea shall perish.

lesserot@Hosea:4:9 @ Therefore shall the same befall both people and priest: and I will punish every one of them for his ways, and recompense every one for his doings.

lesserot@Hosea:4:10 @ And they will eat, and shall not be satisfied; they will commit lewdness, and they shall not increase; because the Lord have they forsaken keeping.

lesserot@Hosea:4:13 @ Upon the tops of the mountains do they sacrifice, and upon the hills burn they incense, under oaks and poplars and terebinths, because their shadow is good: therefore will your daughters play the harlot, and your daughter–in–law will commit adultery.

lesserot@Hosea:4:14 @ I cannot inflict punishment on your daughters when they play the harlot, nor on your daughters–in–law when they commit adultery; for they themselves associate with lewd women, and with harlots do they sacrifice: and so doth the people that doth not understand stumble.

lesserot@Hosea:4:15 @ Yet though thou play the harlot, O Israel, let not Judah offend: and come not ye unto Gilgal, nor go ye up to Beth–aven, nor swear, As the Lord liveth.

lesserot@Hosea:4:16 @ For like an untamable cow is Israel disobedient: now would the Lord have fed them as a sheep in a wide pasture.

lesserot@Hosea:4:17 @ Ephraim is bound to idols: let him alone.

lesserot@Hosea:5:1 @ Hear this, O ye priests; and listen well, O ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for the punishment threateneth you; because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread out upon Thabor.

lesserot@Hosea:5:3 @ I well know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from me; for now, O Ephraim, hast thou played the harlot, Israel is defiled.

lesserot@Hosea:5:4 @ Their doings will not permit them to return unto their God; for the spirit of lewdness is in their bosom, and the Lord they have not known.

lesserot@Hosea:5:5 @ Therefore shall the pride of Israel be humbled before his face: and Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in their iniquity; Judah also shall stumble with them.

lesserot@Hosea:5:9 @ Ephraim shall be made desolate on the day of chastisement: among the tribes of Israel had I made known that which is true.

lesserot@Hosea:5:11 @ Oppressed is Ephraim, broken through punishment; because he willingly walked after the commandment.

lesserot@Hosea:5:13 @ Then saw Ephraim his sickness, and Judah his wound, and Ephraim went to Asshur, and sent to the king that should contend; but he will never be able to heal you, nor remove from you your wound.

lesserot@Hosea:6:2 @ He will revive us after two days: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his presence.

lesserot@Hosea:6:3 @ And let us feel it, that we may strive to know the Lord; bright as the morning–dawn is his rising; and he will come as the rain unto us, as the latter rain that maketh fruitful the earth."

lesserot@Hosea:6:4 @ What shall I do unto thee, O Ephraim? what shall I do unto thee, O Judah? for your piety is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away.

lesserot@Hosea:6:5 @ Therefore did I hew down by means of the prophets; I slew them by the words of my mouth: and thy punishments go forth like the light.

lesserot@Hosea:6:8 @ Gil’ad is become a city of workers of wickedness, is full of traces of blood.

lesserot@Hosea:6:9 @ And as troops that lie in wait for a man, so is the band of priests, they murder on the way in unison; for they commit scandalous deeds.

lesserot@Hosea:6:10 @ On the house of Israel have I seen a horrible thing: there is lewdness in Ephraim, Israel is become defiled.

lesserot@Hosea:7:1 @ Should I desire to heal Israel, then would the iniquity of Ephraim and the wickedness of Samaria be laid open; for they commit falsehood; and the thief entereth, and the troop of robbers is spread abroad without.

lesserot@Hosea:7:5 @ On the day of our king’s the princes are made sick with the fumes of wine: joineth his hand with scorners.

lesserot@Hosea:7:7 @ They are all hot as an oven, they devour their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.

lesserot@Hosea:7:8 @ Ephraim mixeth himself indeed among the nations: Ephraim is a cake not turned.

lesserot@Hosea:7:9 @ Strangers devour his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are sprinkled about on his, yet he knoweth not.

lesserot@Hosea:7:10 @ And humbled was the pride of Israel before his own face; but they did not return to the Lord their God, and sought him not, notwithstanding all this.

lesserot@Hosea:7:11 @ And Ephraim is become like a silly dove without understanding: Egypt did they call hither, to Assyria did they go.

lesserot@Hosea:7:12 @ As they go, so will I spread out my net over them; as the fowls of the heaven will I bring them down: I will chastise them, as it hath been announced to their congregation.

lesserot@Hosea:7:15 @ And I desired to instruct and to strengthen their arms; yet would they devise evil against me.

lesserot@Hosea:7:16 @ They never return upward: they are like a deceitful bow: by the sword shall their princes fall because of the rage of their tongue; this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Hosea:8:2 @ To me will they then cry, My God, we, Israel, know thee.

lesserot@Hosea:8:3 @ Israel did reject the good; so let the enemy pursue him.

lesserot@Hosea:8:5 @ Thy calf, O Samaria, hath caused thy rejection; my anger is kindled against them: how long will it be that they cannot cleanse themselves?

lesserot@Hosea:8:6 @ For whom Israel did also that spring; an artisan made it, and no God is it: so then shall it become broken in splinters–– that calf of Samaria.

lesserot@Hosea:8:8 @ Swallowed up is Israel: now are they among the nations as a vessel without any value.

lesserot@Hosea:8:13 @ My sacrificial offerings they slay as common flesh that they may eat it; the Lord accepteth them not in favor: now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins; they shall indeed return to Egypt.

lesserot@Hosea:8:14 @ For Israel forgot his Maker, and built palaces; and Judah multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire among his cities, and it shall devour their fine edifices.

lesserot@Hosea:9:1 @ Rejoice not, O Israel, for gladness, as other people; for thou art gone astray, unfaithful to thy God: thou hast loved the wages of sin upon every corn–filled threshing–floor.

lesserot@Hosea:9:4 @ They shall not pour out wine to the Lord, and shall not be pleasing unto him; their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for this their food can only be for themselves, it shall not come into the house of the Lord.

lesserot@Hosea:9:7 @ Come are the days of the visitation, come are the days of thy recompense; this shall Israel experience: a fool was the prophet, mad the inspired man, because of the greatness of thy iniquity, and the great hatefulness.

lesserot@Hosea:9:8 @ The watchman of Ephraim with my God, the prophet, was a snare of the fowler on all his ways, a hateful thing in the house of his god.

lesserot@Hosea:9:9 @ They are deeply corrupt, as in the days of Gib’ah: he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.

lesserot@Hosea:9:10 @ Like grapes in the wilderness had I found Israel; as the first ripe fruit on the fig–tree in the first of the season had I seen your fathers; but they too went to Ba’al–pe’or: and devoted themselves unto that shameful idol, and became abominations as those they loved.

lesserot@Hosea:9:11 @ As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird: there is no more birth, and no pregnancy, and no conception.

lesserot@Hosea:9:13 @ Ephraim, as I have seen him like Tyre, planted in a pleasant meadow,––yet this Ephraim shall lead forth to the murderer his children.

lesserot@Hosea:9:14 @ Give them, O Lord, what thou wilt give! give them a miscarrying womb and dried–up breasts.

lesserot@Hosea:9:15 @ All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hate them; for the wickedness of their doings will I drive them out of my house: I will love them no farther; all their princes are rebels.

lesserot@Hosea:9:16 @ Smitten is Ephraim, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit; yea, though they should bring forth, yet would I slay the beloved fruit of their body.

lesserot@Hosea:10:1 @ An emptied vine is Israel; how should he bring forth fruit for himself? the more numerous was his fruit the more he increased the altars; the more prosperous was his land, the more they made goodly statues.

lesserot@Hosea:10:2 @ Their heart is divided; now shall they bear their guilt: this will break down their altars, will devastate their statues.

lesserot@Hosea:10:4 @ They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: therefore springeth up the punishment as poison in the furrows of the field.

lesserot@Hosea:10:5 @ For the calves of Beth–aven are terrified the inhabitants of Samaria: yea, the people thereof mourn over them, and also its false priests that rejoiced over them, for its glory, because it is departed from it.

lesserot@Hosea:10:6 @ Also this shall be carried unto Assyria for a present to the contentious king: Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed because of his own counsel.

lesserot@Hosea:10:7 @ As for Samaria, her king shall vanish like the foam upon the surface of the water.

lesserot@Hosea:10:8 @ And destroyed shall be the high–places of Aven, the sin of Israel; the thorn and the thistle shall grow upon their altars: and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall upon us.

lesserot@Hosea:10:9 @ More than in the days of Gib’ah hast thou sinned, O Israel! there they stood; and the battle in Gib’ah against the children of wickedness did not overtake them.

lesserot@Hosea:10:10 @ after my desire will I chastise them: and the people shall be gathered against them, when they harness them in their two furrows.

lesserot@Hosea:10:11 @ And Ephraim is as a well–taught heifer that loveth to tread out the corn; and I passed over her fair neck: now will I make Ephraim draw the wagon, Judah shall plough, and Jacob shall harrow the field for the enemy.

lesserot@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow then for yourselves after righteousness, that you may reap of kindness; cultivate your fallow field; for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness down for you.

lesserot@Hosea:10:14 @ Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy people, and all thy fortresses shall be wasted, as Shalman devastated Beth–arbel on the day of battle, the mother was dashed in pieces upon her children.

lesserot@Hosea:10:15 @ The like of this doth Beth–el procure unto you because of your great wickedness: in the early morning shall utterly pass away the king of Israel.

lesserot@Hosea:11:1 @ When Israel was yet young, then I loved him, and out of Egypt did I call my son.

lesserot@Hosea:11:3 @ Yet I myself appointed a leader for Ephraim, who took them up in his arms; but they would not acknowledge that I healed them.

lesserot@Hosea:11:5 @ He should not return unto the land of Egypt: yet is the Assyrian his king; because they refused to repent.

lesserot@Hosea:11:6 @ And the sword shall fall on his cities, and shall make an end of his boughs, and consume them, because of their counsels.

lesserot@Hosea:11:8 @ How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I surrender thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I change thee as Zeboyim? turned is my heart within me, all my compassion is enkindled together.

lesserot@Hosea:13:1 @ When once Ephraim spoke, trembled, so high was he exalted in Israel; but he offended through Ba’al, and he died.

lesserot@Hosea:13:2 @ And now they yet continue to sin, and have made themselves molten images of their silver, idols according to their own imagining, every one of them the work of the artisan: they say to them, They that sacrifice men may kiss the calves.

lesserot@Hosea:13:3 @ Therefore shall they be as the morning cloud, and as the dew that early passeth away, as the chaff that is driven by the whirlwind out of the threshing–floor, and as smoke out of a window.

lesserot@Hosea:13:4 @ Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt: and no god but me shalt thou know, and there is no saviour beside me.

lesserot@Hosea:13:9 @ Thou hast destroyed thyself, O Israel; for against me, against thy helper

lesserot@Hosea:13:10 @ Where then is now thy king, that he may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges, since thou saidst, Give me a king, and princes?

lesserot@Hosea:13:12 @ Bound up is the iniquity of Ephraim, treasured up is his sin.

lesserot@Hosea:13:13 @ The pains of a travailing woman shall come upon him; he is an unwise son; for he will not remain steadfast at the time of the breaking forth of the child.

lesserot@Hosea:13:14 @ From the power of the grave would I ransom them, from death would I redeem them; where are thy plagues, O death, where is thy pestilence, O grave? compassion shall be hidden from my eyes.

lesserot@Hosea:13:15 @ Though he grow luxuriantly in the green meadows, the east wind shall come, the wind of the Lord, rising up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: the same shall plunder the treasure of all precious vessels.

lesserot@Joel:1:11 @ Be ashamed, O ye husbandmen; wail, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because lost is the harvest of the field.

lesserot@Joel:1:12 @ The vine is made ashamed, and the fig–tree is withered; the pomegranate–tree, the palm–tree also, and the apple–tree, even all the trees of the field, are dried up; because joy hath ceased from the children of men.

lesserot@Joel:1:13 @ Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests; wail, ye ministers of the altar: come, remain all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God; for there are withholden from the house of your God the meat–offering and the drink–offering.

lesserot@Joel:2:2 @ It is a day of darkness and of gloom, a day of clouds and of tempestuous obscurity, like the morning–dawn spread out upon the mountains: a people numerous and strong, the like of which hath never been and after it there will be none any more, even to the years of all coming generations.

lesserot@Joel:2:3 @ Before it devoureth a fire; and behind it singeth a flame: like the garden of ‘Eden was the land before it, and after it is a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing escapeth from it.

lesserot@Joel:2:4 @ Like the appearance of horses is its appearance; and like horsemen, so do they run.

lesserot@Joel:2:5 @ Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains do they leap; they are like the noise of a flame of fire consuming the stubble, as a strong people arrayed for a battle.

lesserot@Joel:2:7 @ Like mighty men do they run; like men of war they climb up a wall; and they march every one on his own ways, and they turn not aside on their paths.

lesserot@Joel:2:8 @ And they do not press one another; every one on his beaten track do they go forward: and they pass through between war–like weapons, and change not their purpose.

lesserot@Joel:2:16 @ Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts; let the bridegroom go forth out of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.

lesserot@Joel:2:17 @ Between the porch and the altar let the priests weep, the ministers of the Lord, and let them say, Spare, O Lord, thy people, and give not up thy heritage to reproach, for nations to make a by–word of them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?

lesserot@Joel:2:18 @ And the Lord was zealous for his land, and he had pity for his people.

lesserot@Joel:2:19 @ And the Lord answered and said unto his people, "Behold, I will send you the corn, and the young wine, and the oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith; and I will not give you up any more to be a reproach among the nations:

lesserot@Amos:1:3 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they have threshed Gil’ad with threshing instruments of iron;

lesserot@Amos:1:6 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Gazzah, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they carried away exiles in full numbers, to deliver them up to Edom;

lesserot@Amos:1:11 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because he pursued with the sword his brother, and disregarded his mercy, and his anger tore in pieces continually, and he kept his wrath for ever:

lesserot@Amos:1:13 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of the children of ‘Ammon, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they have ripped up the pregnant women of Gil’ad, in order to enlarge their own territory;

lesserot@Amos:1:15 @ And their king shall go into exile, he and his princes together, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Amos:2:1 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because he burnt the bones of the king of Edom into lime;

lesserot@Amos:2:4 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they have despised the law of the Lord, and did not keep his statutes, and their lying idols caused them to err, after which their fathers had walked;

lesserot@Amos:2:6 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they sold for silver the righteous, and the needy for a pair of shoes;

lesserot@Amos:2:9 @ Yet have I destroyed the Emorite from before them, whose height was like the height of cedars, and who was strong as the oaks; but I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.

lesserot@Amos:2:11 @ And I have raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for nazarites: is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the Lord.

lesserot@Amos:2:13 @ Behold, I press down under you, as the wagon presseth down that is full of sheaves.

lesserot@Amos:3:9 @ Publish at the palaces in Ashdod, and at the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great confusions in her midst, and the oppressions within her.

lesserot@Amos:3:12 @ Thus hath said the Lord, As the shepherd snatcheth out of the mouth of the lion two leg–bones, or a tip of the ear: so shall be delivered the children of Israel that sit in Samaria on the corner of a bed, and on Damascus couches.

lesserot@Amos:3:14 @ For on the day when I visit the transgressions of Israel upon him, will I also inflict punishment on the altars of Beth–el: and then shall be hewn off the horns of the altar, and they shall fall to the ground.

lesserot@Amos:3:15 @ And I will smite the winter–house together with the summer–house: and the houses of ivory shall disappear, and the great houses shall be no more, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Amos:4:5 @ And burn of leaven a sacrifice of thanksgiving, and proclaim and publish freewill–offerings; for so do you love, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Amos:4:8 @ And two or three cities wandered unto one city, to drink water; but they were not satisfied: and yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Amos:4:12 @ Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: because then I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.

lesserot@Amos:4:13 @ For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morning–dawn darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, ––The Lord, the God of hosts, is his name.

lesserot@Amos:5:1 @ Hear ye this word which I take up against you, as a lamentation, O house of Israel.

lesserot@Amos:5:2 @ She is fallen, she will not rise again––the virgin of Israel: she is thrown down upon her land; there is none to raise her up.

lesserot@Amos:5:3 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The city that goeth forth with a thousand shall retain but a hundred, and she that goeth forth with a hundred shall retain but ten, to the house of Israel.

lesserot@Amos:5:4 @ For thus hath said the Lord unto the house of Israel, Seek ye for me, and ye shall live;

lesserot@Amos:5:15 @ Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish justice firmly in the gate: perhaps the Lord the God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.

lesserot@Amos:5:16 @ Therefore thus hath said the Eternal, the God of hosts, the Lord, On all public places there is lamentation, and in all the streets they cry, Woe! woe! and they call the husbandman to mourning, and to lamentation those skilled in wailing.

lesserot@Amos:5:17 @ And in all vineyards there is lamentation; for I will pass through thy midst, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Amos:5:18 @ Woe unto you that long for the day of the Lord! for what do you wish the day of the Lord? it is darkness, and not of light.

lesserot@Amos:5:19 @ As if a man were to flee from a lion, and a bear should meet him; and he enter into the house, and lean his hand against the wall, and a serpent should bite him.

lesserot@Amos:5:20 @ Behold the day of the Lord is darkness, and not of light; yea, it is obscure, and hath no brightness.

lesserot@Amos:5:21 @ I hate, I despise your feast–days, and I will not smell on your festive assemblies.

lesserot@Amos:5:23 @ Remove thou from around me the noise of thy songs: and the playing of thy psalteries I will not hear.

lesserot@Amos:5:25 @ Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and meat–offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?

lesserot@Amos:5:27 @ And I will cause you to go into exile far beyond Damascus, saith the Lord, The God of hosts is his name.

lesserot@Amos:6:1 @ Woe to those that are free from care in Zion, and that are in safety on the mount of Samaria, who are named the chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!

lesserot@Amos:6:2 @ Pass ye over unto Calneh, and see; and go from there to Chamath–rabbah; then go down to Gath of the Philistines: whether they be better than these kingdoms? or whether their territory be greater than your territory?

lesserot@Amos:6:7 @ Therefore now shall they go into exile at the head of exiles, and the noisy banquet of those that were stretched out shall pass away.

lesserot@Amos:6:8 @ The Lord Eternal hath sworn by his own existence, saith the Lord the God of hosts, I abhor the pride of Jacob, and his palaces do I hate: therefore will I surrender up the city with all that filleth it.

lesserot@Amos:6:10 @ And should a man’s uncle or relative carry him forth, to bring out the bones out of the house, and say unto him that is in the recesses of the house, Is there yet any one with thee? he will say, There is no one left. Then will he say, Be silent; for we may not make mention of the name of the Lord.

lesserot@Amos:6:12 @ Do horses ever run upon the rock? or will one plough there with oxen? that ye have turned justice into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood;

lesserot@Amos:6:14 @ For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the Lord the God of hosts, and they shall oppress you from the entrance of Chamath unto the brook of the wilderness.

lesserot@Amos:7:2 @ And it came to pass, when they had made an end of eating up the herbs of the earth, that I said, O Lord Eternal, forgive, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!

lesserot@Amos:7:3 @ The Lord bethought himself of this: It shall not be, said the Lord.

lesserot@Amos:7:4 @ Thus did the Lord Eternal show unto me: and, behold, the Lord Eternal called forth the punishment by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and consumed the ploughed field.

lesserot@Amos:7:5 @ Then said I, O Lord Eternal, forbear, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!

lesserot@Amos:7:6 @ The Lord bethought himself of this: Also this shall not be, said the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Amos:7:7 @ Thus he showed unto me: and, behold, the Lord was standing upon a wall by a plumbline, and in his hand was a plumbline.

lesserot@Amos:7:8 @ And the Lord said unto me, What dost thou see, ‘Amos? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel; I will not farther indulge them any more.

lesserot@Amos:7:9 @ And the high places of Isaac shall be made desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid in ruins: and I will rise up against the house of Jerobo’am with the sword.

lesserot@Amos:7:10 @ Then sent Amazyah, the priest of Beth–el, to Jerobo’am the king of Israel, saying, ‘Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.

lesserot@Amos:7:11 @ For thus hath ‘Amos said, By the sword shall Jerobo’am die, and Israel shall surely be led away into exile out of their own land.

lesserot@Amos:7:13 @ But at Beth–el prophesy not farther any more; for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a royal residence.

lesserot@Amos:7:15 @ But the Lord hath taken me away from behind the flocks, and the Lord said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.

lesserot@Amos:7:16 @ And now hear thou the word of the Lord, Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house of Isaac.

lesserot@Amos:7:17 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Thy wife will play the harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided out by the line; and thou shalt die in an unclean land; and Israel shall surely be led forth into exile out of their land.

lesserot@Amos:8:2 @ And he said, What dost thou see, ‘Amos? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the Lord unto me, The end is come for my people Israel: I will not farther indulge them any more.

lesserot@Amos:8:4 @ Hear this, O ye that are greedy to swallow the needy, and to ruin the poor of the land,

lesserot@Amos:8:5 @ Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell provision? and the sabbath, that we may open the corn–warehouses, making the ephah small, and increasing the shekel, and cheating with deceitful balances?

lesserot@Amos:8:8 @ Shall because of this the land not tremble, and mourn every one that dwelleth therein? and shall it not rise up like a stream wholly, and roll onward and sink again like the stream of Egypt?

lesserot@Amos:8:14 @ Those that swear by the guilt of Samaria, and say, As thy god liveth, O Dan; and, As liveth the worshipped idol of Beer–sheba’, ––yea, they shall fall, and never rise up again.

lesserot@Amos:9:1 @ I saw the Lord standing upon the altar; and he said, Smite the capital, that the sills may quake; and break them in pieces over the head of all of them; and their posterity will I slay with the sword: there shall not flee away from them one that fleeth, and there shall not escape from them one that is saved.

lesserot@Amos:9:5 @ And the Lord Eternal of hosts it is that toucheth the earth, and she melteth away, and all that dwell thereon shall mourn; and she riseth up like a stream wholly; and she sinketh like the stream of Egypt;

lesserot@Amos:9:9 @ For, lo, I will give the command, and I will shake about among all the nations the house of Israel, as one shaketh things in a sieve, while not the least piece falleth down upon the earth.

lesserot@Amos:9:11 @ On that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David which is fallen; and I will close up its breaches; and its ruins will I raise up, and I will rebuild it as in days of old:

lesserot@Amos:9:12 @ In order that they may take possession of the remnant of Edom, and of all the nations, which are called by my name, saith the Lord that doth this.

lesserot@Micah:2:11 @ If a man that goeth after wind and lieth with falsehood, "I will preach unto thee of wine and of strong drink:" he would be a preacher for this people.

lesserot@Micah:2:12 @ I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather up the remnant of Israel; I will place them together as flocks in the fold, as droves in the midst of their pen: they shall be crowded with men.

lesserot@Micah:3:1 @ And I said, Hear, I pray you, O ye heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel! Is it not for you to know what is justice?

lesserot@Micah:3:4 @ Then will they cry unto the Lord, but he will not hear them; and he will hide his face from them at that time, as they have committed their evil deeds.

lesserot@Micah:3:5 @ Thus hath said the Lord concerning the prophets that mislead my people, who, when they have something to bite with their teeth, cry, Peace; but who prepare war against him who putteth nothing in their mouth:

lesserot@Micah:3:6 @ Therefore shall the night be unto you, without a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, without divining; and the sun shall go down around the prophets, and the day shall be obscured around them.

lesserot@Micah:3:7 @ Thus shall the seers be made ashamed, and the diviners be put to the blush: yea, they shall all wrap themselves up to the upper lip; for there is no answer of God.

lesserot@Micah:3:8 @ But truly I am indeed full of strength by the spirit of the Lord, and of judging, and of might, to tell unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.

lesserot@Micah:3:9 @ Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel, that abhor justice, and make crooked all that is straight.

lesserot@Micah:3:11 @ Her heads judge for bribes, and her priests teach for reward, and her prophets divine for money: and yet will they lean upon the Lord, and say, Is not the Lord among us? evil cannot come over us.

lesserot@Micah:4:1 @ And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be firmly established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and unto it shall people flow.

lesserot@Micah:4:2 @ And many nations shall come, and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; that he may teach us of his ways, and we may walk in his paths; for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord out of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Micah:4:4 @ But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig–tree, with none to make them afraid; for the mouth of the Lord of hosts hath spoken it.

lesserot@Micah:4:5 @ though all the people should walk every one in the name of his god, yet will we walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.

lesserot@Micah:4:6 @ On that day, saith the Lord, will I assemble her that halteth, and her that is driven out will I gather, and her to whom I have done evil;

lesserot@Micah:4:7 @ And I will make of her that halted a remnant, and of her that was cast off far away a strong nation: and the Lord will reign over them on mount Zion, from this time and unto eternity.

lesserot@Micah:4:9 @ Now why dost thou cry aloud? is there no king in thee? is thy counsellor lost? that pangs have seized on thee as on a woman in travail?

lesserot@Micah:4:12 @ But they know not the thoughts of the Lord, and they understand not his counsel: that he will gather them as the sheaves into the threshing–floor.

lesserot@Micah:4:13 @ Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion; for I will render thy horn iron, and thy hoofs will I render copper, and thou shalt beat in pieces many people: and I will devote unto the Lord their ill–gotten gain, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.

lesserot@Micah:6:1 @ Do but hear now what the Lord saith, Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.

lesserot@Micah:6:2 @ Hear ye, O mountains, the controversy of the Lord, and ye strong foundations of the earth! for the Lord hath a controversy with his people, and with Israel will he plead.

lesserot@Micah:6:8 @ He hath told thee, O man, what is good; and what the Lord doth require of thee: but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with thy God.

lesserot@Micah:6:9 @ The voice of the Lord calleth unto the city,––and wisdom shall see thy name:––hear ye the rod, and who hath ordained it.

lesserot@Micah:6:12 @ For her rich men are full of violence, and her inhabitants have spoken falsehood, and their tongue is deceit in their mouth.

lesserot@Micah:6:14 @ Thou wilt indeed eat, but not be satisfied; and what thou hast eaten shall bend thee down; and thou wilt overtake, but thou shalt not deliver; and that which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword.

lesserot@Micah:6:16 @ For there are observed the statutes of ‘Omri, and all the works of the house of Achab, and ye walk in their counsels: in order that I should give thee up unto desolation, and thy inhabitants to derision; and ye shall bear the reproach of my people.

lesserot@Micah:7:1 @ Woe is me! for I am as in the gathering of the summer–fruits, as in the grape–gleanings of the vintage: there is no cluster to eat, no first–ripe fruit for which my soul longeth.

lesserot@Micah:7:2 @ The pious hath disappeared out of the land; and the upright among men there is none; all of them lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net.

lesserot@Micah:7:3 @ For the evil of your hands you expect good? while the prince demandeth, and the judge acteth for pay; and the great man is only speaking the wilful pleasure of his soul: and so do they make a network.

lesserot@Micah:7:4 @ The best of them is like a brier; the most upright is than a thorn–hedge: the day of thy watchmen, thy punishment, is come; now shall be perplexity among them.

lesserot@Micah:7:6 @ For the son disgraceth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter–in–law against her mother–in–law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.

lesserot@Micah:7:8 @ Rejoice not, O my enemy, over me: though I am fallen, I rise again: though I should sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light unto me.

lesserot@Micah:7:9 @ The indignation of the Lord will I bear, because I have sinned against him; until that he plead my cause, and execute justice for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.

lesserot@Micah:7:10 @ Then she that is my enemy will see it, and shame shall cover her, who said unto me, Where is the Lord thy God? My eyes shall complacently see her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.

lesserot@Micah:7:11 @ The day that thy fences are to be built––that same day, the ordained, is yet far removed.

lesserot@Micah:7:12 @ It is a day when men shall come to thee from Assyria, and the cities of Mazor, and from Mazor even to the river, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.

lesserot@Micah:7:18 @ Who is a god like unto thee, pardoning iniquity, and forgiving transgression to the residue of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in kindness.

lesserot@Nahum:1:1 @ The doom of Nineveh, The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.

lesserot@Nahum:1:2 @ A God watchful and avenging is the Lord; an avenger is the Lord, and full of fury; the Lord taketh vengeance on his adversaries, and keepeth in mind the deeds of his enemies.

lesserot@Nahum:1:3 @ The Lord is long–suffering, and great in power, but he will by no means clear the guilty: the Lord––in the whirlwind and in the storm is his way, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

lesserot@Nahum:1:5 @ Mountains quake before him, and the hills melt away; and the earth is lifted up at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.

lesserot@Nahum:1:6 @ Before his indignation who can stand? and who can subsist before the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken down by him.

lesserot@Nahum:1:7 @ The Lord is good, a strong–hold on the day of distress; and he knoweth those that trust in him.

lesserot@Nahum:1:8 @ But with an overflowing flood will he utterly destroy the place of, and his enemies will he pursue with darkness.

lesserot@Nahum:1:9 @ What will you devise against the Lord? he is bringing about an utter destruction, the distress shall not rise up twice.

lesserot@Nahum:1:11 @ There is gone forth out of thee he that devised evil against the Lord, the counsellor of infamous things.

lesserot@Nahum:1:13 @ For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and thy bonds will I tear asunder.

lesserot@Nahum:3:1 @ Woe to the city of blood! it is all full of lies and robbery; never ceaseth the preying;

lesserot@Nahum:3:2 @ The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of wheels, and of prancing horses, and of the skipping chariots.

lesserot@Nahum:3:3 @ Horsemen mount, and there are the flaming sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and heaps of carcasses; and without end are the corpses; they stumble on their corpses;

lesserot@Nahum:3:4 @ Because of the multitude of the lewd deeds of the harlot, that is rich in gracefulness, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her lewd deeds, and families through her witchcrafts.

lesserot@Nahum:3:7 @ And it shall come to pass, that all they that see thee shall flee from thee, and say, Laid waste is Nineveh: who will condole with her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?

lesserot@Nahum:3:17 @ Thy crowned ones are like the locusts, and thy leaders like the swarms of locusts, which camp in the hedges on a cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.

lesserot@Nahum:3:18 @ Thy shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria; thy valiant men are at rest: scattered are thy people upon the mountains, and there is none that gathereth them.

lesserot@Nahum:3:19 @ There is no healing for thy breach; fatal is thy wound: all that hear the report of thee will clap their hands over thee; for over whom did not thy wickedness pass continually?

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:3 @ Why wilt thou let me see wickedness, and wilt look on trouble, and the robbery and violence before me: while there is strife, and contention lifteth up?

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:4 @ Therefore is the law powerless, and justice cometh not forth victorious; for the wicked encompasseth about the righteous; therefore doth justice come forth perverted.

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:5 @ Look ye about among the nations, and behold and be astonished and astounded; for will fulfill a work in your days, ye would not believe it, if it were only told you.

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:6 @ For, lo, I will raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and impetuous nation, that march to the wide spaces of the earth to conquer dwelling–places that are not theirs.

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:9 @ They all will come for violence: the front of their faces is like the east wind, and they gather captives as the sand.

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:11 @ Then doth their spirit become arrogant, and they are surpassingly proud, and offend, this their power unto their god.

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:13 @ Thou, who art too pure of eyes to behold evil, and canst not look on trouble, wherefore wilt thou look upon those that deal treacherously, be silent when the wicked swalloweth up him that is more righteous than he?

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:15 @ All of them he bringeth up with the angle, he draggeth them up in his net, and gathereth them in his drag: therefore he rejoiceth and is glad.

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:16 @ Therefore he sacrificeth unto his net, and burneth incense unto his drag; because through them is his portion fat, and his food marrowy.

lesserot@Habakkuk:1:17 @ Shall he therefore empty his net, and continually slay nations without sparing?

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:2 @ And the Lord answered me, and said, Write down the vision, and make it plain upon the tables, that everyone may read it fluently.

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:3 @ For there is yet a vision for the appointed time, and it speaketh of the end, and it will not deceive: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not be delayed.

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:7 @ Behold, suddenly will rise up those that afflict thee, and awake those that plague thee, and thou shalt become a booty unto them.

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:9 @ Woe to him that obtaineth an evil gain for his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the grasp of the wicked!

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:13 @ Behold, is it not from the Lord of hosts that people shall labor for the very fire, and nations shall weary themselves for naught but vanity!

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:15 @ Woe unto him that maketh his neighbors drink, that pourest out thy poisonous, and makest them also drunken, in order to look on their nakedness!

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:18 @ What profiteth the graven image that its maker hath graven it? the molten image, and a teacher of falsehood? that the maker of his image trusteth therein, while making dumb idols?

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:19 @ Woe unto him that saith to the wood, Awake! Rouse up to the dumb stone. Shall this teach? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and no breath whatever is in its bosom.

lesserot@Habakkuk:2:20 @ But the Lord is in his holy temple: be silent before him all the earth.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:3 @ God from Theman came, and the Holy One from mount Paran, Selah: his glory covered the heavens, and of his praise the earth was full.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:4 @ And brightness was like the sunlight; rays streamed forth out of his hand unto them; and there was the hiding of his power.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:5 @ Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth in his steps.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:6 @ He stood forward, and made the earth tremble; he looked and dispersed nations; and there burst asunder the everlasting mountains; there sunk the perpetual hills: the ways of the world are his.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:9 @ Laid quite bare is thy bow, like severe rods of punishment thy word, Selah: into rivers thou splittest the earth.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:10 @ The mountains saw thee, they trembled; the flowing waters passed along: the deep issued forth its voice, the height lifted up its hands.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:13 @ Thou wentest forth to the assistance of thy people, to the assistance of thy anointed: thou didst wound the head out of the house of the wicked, destroy the foundation with the high–towering walls. Selah.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:14 @ Thou didst strike through with his own spears the chiefs of his villages, who rushed out furiously to scatter me; who rejoiced greatly as though they were to devour the poor in secret.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:16 @ I heard it, and my inmost parts trembled; at the report my lips quivered; rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in my place, that I should rest till the day of distress, till the withdrawing of the people that will invade us with its troops.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:17 @ For the fig–tree doth not bud, and no fruit is on the vines; the productiveness of the olive deceiveth, and the fields yield no food; from the fold the flocks are cut off, and there are no herds in the stalls.

lesserot@Habakkuk:3:19 @ The Lord Eternal is my strength, and he maketh my feet fleet as those of the hinds, and he will cause me to tread upon my high places. To the chief musician of my songs.

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:3 @ I will remove man and beast; I will remove the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumbling blocks together with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the face of the earth, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:4 @ And I will stretch out my hand over Judah, and over all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Ba’al from this place, the name of his ministers with his priests;

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:7 @ Be silent in the presence of the Lord Eternal; for nigh is the day of the Lord; for the Lord hath prepared a slaughter, he hath bidden his invited guests.

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:8 @ And it shall come to pass on the day of the Lord’s slaughter, that I will inflict punishment on the princes, and on the king’s sons, and on all such as are clothed in garments of a foreign land.

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:9 @ And I will inflict punishment on all those that leap over the threshold on that day, who fill the house of their master with violence and deceit.

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:10 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, saith the Lord, that there shall be a loud cry of lamentation from the fish–gate, and a wailing from the second, and a great breach from the hills.

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:12 @ And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem through with lights; and I will inflict punishment on the men that are at rest on their lees, that say in their heart, The Lord will not do good, nor will he do evil.

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:14 @ Nigh is the great day of the Lord, it is nigh, and hasteneth greatly, the noise of the day of the Lord: bitterly crieth there the mighty man.

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:15 @ A day of wrath is that day, a day of distress and anxiety, a day of wasting and desolation, a day of darkness and obscurity, a day of clouds and tempestuous gloom,

lesserot@Zephaniah:1:17 @ And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk about like the blind, because against the Lord have they sinned: and their blood shall be poured out like the dust, and their flesh like the dung.

lesserot@Zephaniah:2:5 @ Woe unto the inhabitants of the district by the sea, the nation of the Kerethites! the word of the Lord is against you, O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that no inhabitant shall remain.

lesserot@Zephaniah:2:6 @ And the district by the sea shall become places for pens of shepherds, and folds for flocks.

lesserot@Zephaniah:2:7 @ And this district shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; thereupon shall they feed their flocks: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening; for the Lord their God will think of them, and bring back their captivity.

lesserot@Zephaniah:2:9 @ Therefore as I live, saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall become like Sodom, and the children of ‘Ammon like Gomorrah, overgrown with nettles, and salt–pits, and a desolation to eternity; the residue of my people shall plunder them, and the remnant of my nation shall possess them.

lesserot@Zephaniah:2:10 @ This shall they have in recompense for their pride; because they have reproached and made themselves great against the people of the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Zephaniah:2:11 @ Terrible will the Lord over them; for he will cause to vanish all the gods of the earth; and then shall prostrate themselves before him, every one from its place, all the isles of the nations.

lesserot@Zephaniah:2:13 @ And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and he will make Nineveh a desolate place, dry, like the wilderness.

lesserot@Zephaniah:3:5 @ The just Lord is in her midst, he will not do wrong; morning after morning doth he bring his justice to the light, it never faileth; but the unjust knoweth no shame.

lesserot@Zephaniah:3:8 @ Therefore wait but for me, saith the Lord, for the day that I rise up to the prey; for my judgment to gather the nations, for me to assemble the kingdoms, to pour over them my indignation, all the fierceness of my anger; for through the fire of my jealousy shall all the earth be devoured.

lesserot@Zephaniah:3:10 @ From beyond the rivers of Cush shall they bring my suppliants, even the assembly of my dispersed, as an offering unto me.

lesserot@Zechariah:6:12 @ And thou shalt say unto him as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold a man, Sprout is his name; since out of his own place shall he sprout up, even he shall build the temple of the Lord:

lesserot@Zechariah:6:13 @ Yea, he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and a priest shall be upon his own throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between both of them.

lesserot@Zechariah:6:15 @ And distant ones shall come and build on the temple of the Lord, and ye shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God.

lesserot@Zechariah:7:1 @ And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius that the word of the Lord came unto Zechariah on the fourth day of the ninth month, in Kislev;

lesserot@Zechariah:7:2 @ When they had sent unto Beth–el Sherezer and Regem–melech, and his men, to make entreaty before the Lord.

lesserot@Zechariah:7:5 @ Say unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, as followeth, When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and in the seventh, already these seventy years, did ye in anywise fast for me, yea, for me?

lesserot@Zechariah:7:11 @ But they refused to listen, and turned away rebelliously the shoulder, and stopped their ears, so as not to hear;

lesserot@Zechariah:7:12 @ And their heart they rendered as an adamant, so as not to hear the law, and the words which the Lord of hosts had sent through his spirit, by means of the former prophets: wherefore came a great anger from the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Zechariah:7:13 @ And it is come to pass, that as he proclaimed, and they would not hear: so had they to call, and I would not hear, saith the Lord of hosts;

lesserot@Zechariah:8:4 @ Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Again shall there sit old men and old women in the streets of Jerusalem, and every one with his staff in his hand because of their multitude of years.

lesserot@Zechariah:8:6 @ Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, If it should be marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes? saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Zechariah:8:10 @ For before those days there was no reward for man, nor any reward for beast; and for him that went out or came in there was no peace, because of the oppressor: and I let loose all men, every one against his neighbor.

lesserot@Zechariah:8:11 @ But now I am no more as in the former days unto the residue of this people, saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Zechariah:8:12 @ For the seed shall be undisturbed; the vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give her production, and the heavens shall give their dew: and I will bestow on the remnant of this people all these things.

lesserot@Zechariah:8:13 @ And it shall come to pass, that, in the same degree as ye have been a curse among the nations, O house of Judah, and house of Israel, so will I save you and ye shall be a blessing: fear not; let your hands be strong.

lesserot@Zechariah:8:16 @ These are the things that ye shall do, Speak ye the truth every man to his neighbor; truth and the judgment of peace judge ye in your gates;

lesserot@Zechariah:8:17 @ And let none of you think evil in your hearts against his neighbor; and love not a false oath, for all these are what I hate, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Zechariah:8:21 @ And the inhabitants of one shall go to another, saying, Let us only go to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I too will likewise go.

lesserot@Zechariah:8:23 @ Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, In those days, that ten men out of all the languages of the nations shall take hold––yea, they shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, Let us go with you; for we have heard that God is with you.

lesserot@Zechariah:9:2 @ And also concerning Chamath that is bordering thereon, Tyre, and Zidon, though it be very wise.

lesserot@Zechariah:9:5 @ Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gazzah also, and tremble greatly: and ‘Ekron, for her trust will be made ashamed: and the king shall vanish from Gazzah, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.

lesserot@Zechariah:9:15 @ The Lord of hosts will be a shield over them; and they shall devour, and subdue the sling–stones; and they shall drink, make a noise as one wine; and they shall be filled like the offering–bowls, like the corners of the altar.

lesserot@Zechariah:9:16 @ And the Lord their God will save them on that day as the flock of his people; for the stones of a crown, will they elevate themselves over his land.

lesserot@Zechariah:10:2 @ For the Theraphim speak vanity, and the diviners foresee a lie, and those that have dreams speak what is false, with nought do they comfort: therefore do they move about like a flock, they bleat, because no shepherd.

lesserot@Zechariah:10:3 @ Against the shepherds is my anger kindled, and on the he–goats will I inflict punishment; for the Lord of hosts thinketh of his flock, the house of Judah, and maketh them as his elegant horse in the battle.

lesserot@Zechariah:10:5 @ And they shall be like mighty men, treading down in the mire of the streets in the battle, and they shall fight, because the Lord is with them: and the riders on horses shall be made ashamed.

lesserot@Zechariah:10:11 @ And he will pass through the sea distress, and he will smite in the sea the waves, and there shall dry up all the deeps of the stream: and there shall be brought down the pride of Assyria, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart away.

lesserot@Zechariah:10:12 @ And I will strengthen them in the Lord, and in his name shall they ever walk, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Zechariah:11:2 @ Wail, fir–tree; for fallen is the cedar; those that were mighty are despoiled: wail, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the impervious forest is come down.

lesserot@Zechariah:11:3 @ the noise of the wailing of the shepherds; for wasted is their glory: the noise of the roaring of young lions; for wasted is the pride of the Jordan.

lesserot@Zechariah:11:6 @ For I will no more have pity on the inhabitants of the land, saith the Lord: but, lo, I will deliver the men every one into the hand of his neighbor, and into the hand of his king: and they shall beat down the land, and I will not deliver out of their hand.

lesserot@Zechariah:11:9 @ Then said I, I will not feed you: what is dying may die; and what is to be lost may be lost; and those that are left may eat every one the flesh of the other.

lesserot@Zechariah:11:14 @ Then I cut in pieces my second staff, namely, Concord, to annul the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

lesserot@Zechariah:11:15 @ And the Lord said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.

lesserot@Zechariah:11:16 @ For, lo, I raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not think of those that are lost, nor seek for that which is gone astray, nor heal that which hath broken; who will not care for that which hath stood still; but who will eat the flesh of the fat, and devour all even to their claws.

lesserot@Zechariah:11:17 @ Woe to the worthless shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall utterly wither, and his right eye shall be completely blinded.

lesserot@Zechariah:13:3 @ And it shall come to pass, if any one should yet prophesy, that his father and his mother who have begotten him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for falsely hast thou spoken in the name of the Lord: and his father and his mother who have begotten him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.

lesserot@Zechariah:13:4 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one because of his vision, when he prophesieth; and they shall not clothe themselves with a hairy cloak in order to deceive.

lesserot@Zechariah:13:8 @ And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off, shall perish; but the third part shall be left therein.

lesserot@Zechariah:13:9 @ And I will bring the third part into the fire, and I will refine them as one refineth silver, and will probe them as gold is probed: they will call on my name, and I will answer their prayer; I will say, They arc my people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.

lesserot@Zechariah:14:1 @ Behold, a day is coming unto the Lord, when thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.

lesserot@Zechariah:14:2 @ And I will assemble all the nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be captured, and the houses plundered, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into exile, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

lesserot@Zechariah:14:4 @ And his feet will stand on that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall be split in twain in its middle eastward and westward, making a very great valley; and half of the mount shall remove northward, and half of it southward.

lesserot@Zechariah:14:12 @ And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will afflict all the people that shall have come to battle against Jerusalem: The flesh of every one shall consume away while he standeth upon his feet, and his eyes shall consume away in their holes, and the tongue of every one shall consume away in his mouth.

lesserot@Zechariah:14:13 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that a great confusion from the Lord shall be among them: and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbor, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbor.

lesserot@Zechariah:14:15 @ And thus shall be the plague of the horses, of the mules, of the camels, and of the asses, and of all the beasts that will be in these camps, just like this plague.

lesserot@Malachi:1:1 @ The prophecy of the word of the Lord to Israel by means of Malachi.

lesserot@Malachi:1:2 @ I have loved you, so hath said the Lord: yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Is not Esau brother to Jacob? saith the Lord: yet I loved Jacob;

lesserot@Malachi:1:3 @ And Esau I hated; and I rendered his mountains a desert, and his heritage a dwelling for the monsters of the wilderness.

lesserot@Malachi:1:4 @ Should Edom even say, We are impoverished; but we will return and build the ruined places: thus hath said the Lord of hosts, They may indeed build, but I will surely throw down; and men shall call them, The territory of wickedness, and, The people against whom the Lord hath indignation to eternity.

lesserot@Malachi:1:5 @ And your eyes shall see it; and ye shall then say, The Lord will be magnified beyond the territory of Israel.

lesserot@Malachi:1:6 @ A son honoreth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is my honor? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the Lord of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name; and ye say, wherein have we despised thy name?

lesserot@Malachi:1:7 @ Ye offer upon my altar polluted bread; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of the Lord is contemptible.

lesserot@Malachi:1:8 @ And if ye bring near the blind to sacrifice it, is this not evil? and if ye bring near the lame and the sick, is this not evil? do but present it unto thy governor, will he be pleased with thee, or receive thee with favor? saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Malachi:1:9 @ And now, I pray you, beseech the presence of God that he may be gracious unto us; from your hand hath this thing come: will he receive one of you with favor? saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Malachi:1:11 @ For from the rising of the sun even unto his going down my name is great among the nations; and in every place incense is burnt and there is offered unto my name, even a pure offering; for great is my name among the nations, saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Malachi:1:12 @ But ye profane it, in that ye say, The table of the Lord is polluted, and by the assertion, Its food is contemptible.

lesserot@Malachi:1:13 @ And ye have said, Behold, what a wearisome task is it! and ye have left it to famish, saith the Lord of hosts; and ye have brought what was robbed, and the lame, and the sick, and thus ye have brought an offering: should I accept this in favor from your hand? saith the Lord.

lesserot@Malachi:1:14 @ But cursed be the deceiver, who hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth a corrupt thing unto the Lord; for I am a great king, saith the Lord of hosts, and my name is feared among the nations.

lesserot@Malachi:2:1 @ And now, this commandment is for you, O ye priests.

lesserot@Malachi:2:4 @ And ye shall thereby know that I have sent out unto you this commandment, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Malachi:2:6 @ The law of truth was in his mouth, and falsehood was not found on his lips: in peace and equity he walked with me, and many did he turn away from iniquity.

lesserot@Malachi:2:7 @ For the priest’s lips are ever to keep knowledge, and the law are they to seek from his mouth; for he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Malachi:2:10 @ Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why shall we deal treacherously every man against his brother, to profane the covenant of our fathers?

lesserot@Malachi:2:11 @ Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination hath been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the sanctuary of the Lord which he loveth, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.

lesserot@Malachi:2:12 @ The Lord will cut off unto the man that doth this, son and grandson, out of the tents of Jacob, and him that bringeth near an offering unto the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Malachi:2:13 @ And this do ye secondly, covering the altar of the Lord with tears, with weeping and with loud complaint, so that he turneth not any more his regard to the offerings, nor receiveth it with favor at your hand.

lesserot@Malachi:2:14 @ Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the Lord hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast indeed dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.

lesserot@Malachi:2:15 @ And not one doth so who hath a remnant of a spirit; for what desireth such a one? he seeketh a godly posterity: therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none of you deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.

lesserot@Malachi:2:16 @ For he hateth putting away, so hath said the Lord the God of Israel, and him who covereth his garment with violence, so hath said the Lord of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, and deal not treacherously.

lesserot@Malachi:2:17 @ Ye have wearied the Lord with your words: yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? By your saying, Every one that doth evil is good in the eyes of the Lord, and in them he findeth delight; or else, Where is the God of justice!

lesserot@Malachi:3:1 @ Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall clear out the way before me: and suddenly will come to his temple the Lord, whom ye seek; and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye desire for, behold, he is coming, saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Malachi:3:2 @ But who can sustain the day of his coming? and who can stand when he appeareth? for he is like the fire of the melter, and like the lye of the washers:

lesserot@Malachi:3:10 @ Bring ye all the tithes into the store–house, that there may be provision in my house, and prove me but herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open for you the windows of heaven, and pour out for you a blessing, until it be more than enough.

lesserot@Malachi:3:14 @ Ye have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his charge, and that we have walked contritely before the Lord of hosts?

lesserot@Malachi:3:15 @ And now we call the presumptuous happy: yea, built up are those that practise wickedness; yea, they have even tempted God and are suffered to escape.

lesserot@Malachi:3:16 @ Then conversed they that fear the Lord one with the other: and the Lord listened and heard it, and there was written a book of remembrance before him for those who fear the Lord, and for those who respect his name.

lesserot@Malachi:3:17 @ And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, on that day which I create as a special treasure: and I will spare them, as a man spareth his son that serveth him.
