bbe@Genesis:27:8 @Now, my son, do what I say.

bbe@Genesis:27:13 @And his mother said, Let the curse be on me, my son: only do as I say, and go and get them for me

bbe@Genesis:28:6 @So when Esau saw that Isaac had given Jacob his blessing, and sent him away to Paddan-aram to get a wife for himself there, blessing him and saying to him, Do not take a wife from among the women of Canaan;

bbe@Genesis:28:13 @And he saw the Lord by his side, saying, I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac: I will give to you and to your seed this land on which you are sleeping.

bbe@Genesis:30:28 @Say then what your payment is to be and I will give it.

bbe@Genesis:30:34 @And Laban said, Let it be as you say.

bbe@Genesis:32:17 @And he gave orders to the first, saying, When my brother Esau comes to you and says, Whose servant are you, and where are you going, and whose are these herds?

bbe@Genesis:32:18 @Then say to him, These are your servant Jacob's; they are an offering for my lord, for Esau; and he himself is coming after us.

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

bbe@Genesis:32:20 @And you are to say further, Jacob, your servant, is coming after us. For he said to himself, I will take away his wrath by the offering which I have sent on, and then I will come before him: it may be that I will have grace in his eyes.

bbe@Genesis:32:30 @And Jacob gave that place the name of Peniel, saying, I have seen God face to face, and still I am living.

bbe@Genesis:34:11 @And Shechem said to her father and her brothers, If you will give ear to my request, whatever you say I will give to you.

bbe@Genesis:37:9 @Then he had another dream, and gave his brothers an account of it, saying, I have had another dream: the sun and the moon and eleven stars gave honour to me.

bbe@Genesis:37:19 @Saying to one another, See, here comes this dreamer.

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

bbe@Genesis:37:21 @But Reuben, hearing these words, got him out of their hands, saying, Let us not take his life.

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

bbe@Genesis:38:21 @And he put questions to the men of the place, saying, Where is the loose woman who was in Enaim by the wayside? And they said, There was no such woman there.

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

bbe@Genesis:38:25 @And while she was being taken out, she sent word to her father-in-law, saying, The man whose property these things are, is the father of my child: say then, whose are this ring and this cord and this stick?

bbe@Genesis:38:28 @And while she was in the act of giving birth, one of them put out his hand; and the woman who was with her put a red thread round his hand, saying, This one came out first.

bbe@Genesis:39:17 @Then she gave him the same story, saying, The Hebrew servant whom you have taken into our house came in to make sport of me;

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

bbe@Genesis:41:55 @And when all the land of Egypt was in need of food, the people came crying to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to the people, Go to Joseph, and whatever he says to you, do it.

bbe@Genesis:42:22 @And Reuben said to them, Did I not say to you, Do the child no wrong? but you gave no attention; so now, punishment has come on us for his blood.

bbe@Genesis:42:29 @So when they came to Jacob their father, in the land of Canaan, they gave him an account of all their experiences, saying,

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

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

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

bbe@Genesis:43:12 @And take twice as much money with you; that is to say, take back the money which was put in your bags, for it may have been an error;

bbe@Genesis:44:1 @Then he gave orders to the servant who was over his house, saying, Put as much food into the men's bags as will go into them, and put every man's money in the mouth of his bag;

bbe@Genesis:44:4 @And when they had gone only a little way out of the town, Joseph said to the servant who was over his house, Go after them; and when you overtake them, say to them, Why have you done evil in reward for good?

bbe@Genesis:44:7 @And they said to him, Why does my lord say such words as these? far be it from your servants to do such a thing:

bbe@Genesis:44:10 @And he said, Let it be as you say: he in whose bag it is seen will become my servant; and you will not be responsible.

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

bbe@Genesis:44:18 @Then Judah came near him, and said, Let your servant say a word in my lord's ears, and let not your wrath be burning against your servant: for you are in the place of Pharaoh to us.

bbe@Genesis:44:32 @For I made myself responsible for the boy to my father, saying, If I do not give him safely back to you, let mine be the sin for ever.

bbe@Genesis:45:9 @Now go quickly to my father, and say to him, Your son Joseph says, God has made me ruler over all the land of Egypt: come down to me straight away:

bbe@Genesis:45:12 @Now truly, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see, that it is my mouth which says these things to you.

bbe@Genesis:45:17 @And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to your brothers, Put your goods on your beasts and go back to the land of Canaan;

bbe@Genesis:45:19 @And say to them, This you are to do: take carts from the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives, and get your father and come back.

bbe@Genesis:46:31 @And Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's people, I will go and give the news to Pharaoh, and say to him, My brothers and my father's people, from the land of Canaan, have come to me;

bbe@Genesis:46:33 @Now when Pharaoh sends for you and says, What is your business?

bbe@Genesis:46:34 @You are to say, Your servants have been keepers of cattle from our early days up to now, like our fathers; in this way you will be able to have the land of Goshen for yourselves; because keepers of sheep are unclean in the eyes of the Egyptians.

bbe@Genesis:48:15 @And he gave Joseph a blessing, saying, May the God to whom my fathers, Abraham and Isaac, gave worship, the God who has taken care of me all my life till this day,

bbe@Genesis:48:19 @But his father would not, saying, I am doing it on purpose, my son; he will certainly become a nation and a great one; but his younger brother will be greater than he, and his seed will become a great family of nations.

bbe@Genesis:48:20 @So he gave them his blessing that day, saying, You will be the sign of blessing in Israel, for they will say, May God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh; and he put Ephraim before Manasseh.

bbe@Genesis:49:29 @And he gave orders to them, saying, Put me to rest with my people and with my fathers, in the hollow of the rock in the field of Ephron the Hittite,

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

bbe@Genesis:50:5 @My father made me take an oath, saying, When I am dead, put me to rest in the place I have made ready for myself in the land of Canaan. So now let me go and put my father in his last resting-place, and I will come back again.

bbe@Genesis:50:16 @So they sent word to Joseph, saying, Your father, before his death, gave us orders, saying,

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

bbe@Genesis:50:25 @Then Joseph made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly give effect to his word, and you are to take my bones away from here.

bbe@Exodus:1:22 @And Pharaoh gave orders to all his people, saying, Every son who comes to birth is to be put into the river, but every daughter may go on living.

bbe@Exodus:3:13 @And Moses said to God, When I come to the children of Israel and say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you: and they say to me, What is his name? what am I to say to them?

bbe@Exodus:3:14 @And God said to him, I AM WHAT I AM: and he said, Say to the children of Israel, I AM has sent me to you.

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

bbe@Exodus:3:16 @Go and get together the chiefs of the children of Israel, and say to them, The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has been seen by me, and has said, Truly I have taken up your cause, because of what is done to you in Egypt;

bbe@Exodus:3:18 @And they will give ear to your voice: and you, with the chiefs of Israel, will go to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and say to him, The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has come to us: let us then go three days' journey into the waste land to make an offering to the Lord our God.

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

bbe@Exodus:4:12 @So go now, and I will be with your mouth, teaching you what to say.

bbe@Exodus:4:22 @And you are to say to Pharaoh, The Lord says, Israel is the first of my sons:

bbe@Exodus:4:28 @And Moses gave Aaron an account of all the words of the Lord which he had sent him to say, and of all the signs which he had given him orders to do.

bbe@Exodus:5:1 @And after that, Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh, and said, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, Let my people go so that they may keep a feast to me in the waste land.

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

bbe@Exodus:5:8 @But see that they make the same number of bricks as before, and no less: for they have no love for work; and so they are crying out and saying, Let us go and make an offering to our God.

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

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

bbe@Exodus:5:15 @Then the responsible men of the children of Israel came to Pharaoh, protesting and saying, Why are you acting in this way to your servants?

bbe@Exodus:5:16 @They give us no dry stems and they say to us, Make bricks: and they give your servants blows; but it is your people who are in the wrong.

bbe@Exodus:5:17 @But he said, You have no love for work: that is why you say, Let us go and make an offering to the Lord.

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

bbe@Exodus:6:11 @Go in and say to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, that he is to let the children of Israel go out of his land.

bbe@Exodus:6:29 @The Lord said to Moses, I am the Lord: say to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, everything I am saying to you.

bbe@Exodus:7:2 @Say whatever I give you orders to say: and Aaron your brother will give word to Pharaoh to let the children of Israel go out of his land.

bbe@Exodus:7:9 @If Pharaoh says to you, Let me see a wonder: then say to Aaron, Take your rod and put it down on the earth before Pharaoh so that it may become a snake.

bbe@Exodus:7:16 @And say to him, The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, Let my people go so that they may give me worship in the waste land; but up to now you have not given ear to his words

bbe@Exodus:7:17 @So the Lord says, By this you may be certain that I am the Lord; see, by the touch of this rod in my hand the waters of the Nile will be turned to blood;

bbe@Exodus:7:19 @And the Lord said, Say to Aaron, Let the rod in your hand be stretched out over the waters of Egypt, and over the rivers and the streams and the pools, and over every stretch of water, so that they may be turned to blood; and there will be blood through all the land of Egypt, in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.

bbe@Exodus:8:1 @And this is what the Lord said to Moses: Go to Pharaoh and say to him, The Lord says, Let my people go so that they may give me worship.

bbe@Exodus:8:5 @And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Let the rod in your hand be stretched out over the streams and the waterways and the pools, causing frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:8:9 @And Moses said, I will let you have the honour of saying when I am to make prayer for you and your servants and your people, that the frogs may be sent away from you and your houses, and be only in the Nile.

bbe@Exodus:8:10 @And he said, By tomorrow. And he said, Let it be as you say: so that you may see that there is no other like the Lord our God.

bbe@Exodus:8:16 @And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Let your rod be stretched out over the dust of the earth so that it may become insects through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:8:20 @And the Lord said to Moses, Get up early in the morning and take your place before Pharaoh when he comes out to the water; and say to him, This is what the Lord says: Let my people go to give me worship.

bbe@Exodus:9:1 @Then the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh and say to him, This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let my people go so that they may give me worship.

bbe@Exodus:9:13 @And the Lord said to Moses, Get up early in the morning and take your place before Pharaoh, and say to him, This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let my people go so that they may give me worship.

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

bbe@Exodus:10:29 @And Moses said, You say truly; I will not see your face again.

bbe@Exodus:11:4 @And Moses said, This is what the Lord says: About the middle of the night I will go out through Egypt:

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

bbe@Exodus:12:3 @Say to all the children of Israel when they are come together, In the tenth day of this month every man is to take a lamb, by the number of their fathers' families, a lamb for every family:

bbe@Exodus:12:26 @And when your children say to you, What is the reason of this act of worship?

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

bbe@Exodus:13:8 @And you will say to your son in that day, It is because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:13:14 @And when your son says to you in time to come, What is the reason for this? say to him, By the strength of his hand the Lord took us out of Egypt, out of the prison-house:

bbe@Exodus:13:19 @And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for Joseph had made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly keep you in mind; and you are to take my bones away with you.

bbe@Exodus:14:3 @And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are wandering without direction, they are shut in by the waste land.

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

bbe@Exodus:16:9 @And Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the people of Israel, Come near before the Lord for he has given ear to your outcry.

bbe@Exodus:16:12 @The outcry of the children of Israel has come to my ears: say to them now, At nightfall you will have meat for your food, and in the morning bread in full measure; and you will see that I am the Lord your God.

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

bbe@Exodus:17:14 @And the Lord said to Moses, Make a record of this in a book, so that it may be kept in memory, and say it again in the ears of Joshua: that all memory of Amalek is to be completely uprooted from the earth.

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

bbe@Exodus:19:6 @And you will be a kingdom of priests to me, and a holy nation. These are the words which you are to say to the children of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:19:7 @And Moses came and sent for the chiefs of the people and put before them all these words which the Lord had given him orders to say.

bbe@Exodus:19:9 @And the Lord said to Moses, See, I will come to you in a thick cloud, so that what I say to you may come to the ears of the people and they may have belief in you for ever. And Moses gave the Lord word of what the people had said.

bbe@Exodus:19:12 @And let limits be marked out for the people round the mountain, and say to them, Take care not to go up the mountain or near the sides of it: whoever puts his foot on the mountain will certainly come to his death:

bbe@Exodus:20:22 @And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, You yourselves have seen that my voice has come to you from heaven

bbe@Exodus:21:5 @But if the servant says clearly, My master and my wife and children are dear to me; I have no desire to be free:

bbe@Exodus:22:9 @In any question about an ox or an ass or a sheep or clothing, or about the loss of any property which anyone says is his, let the two sides put their cause before God; and he who is judged to be in the wrong is to make payment to his neighbour of twice the value.

bbe@Exodus:22:28 @You may not say evil of the judges, or put a curse on the ruler of your people.

bbe@Exodus:23:22 @But if you truly give ear to his voice, and do whatever I say, then I will be against those who are against you, fighting those who are fighting you.

bbe@Exodus:25:2 @Say to the children of Israel that they are to make me an offering; from every man who has the impulse in his heart take an offering for me.

bbe@Exodus:30:31 @And say to the children of Israel, This is to be the Lord's holy oil, from generation to generation.

bbe@Exodus:31:13 @Say to the children of Israel that they are to keep my Sabbaths; for the Sabbath day is a sign between me and you through all your generations; so that you may see that I am the Lord who makes you holy.

bbe@Exodus:32:5 @And when Aaron saw this, he made an altar before it, and made a public statement, saying, Tomorrow there will be a feast to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:32:8 @Even now they are turned away from the rule I gave them, and have made themselves a metal ox and given worship to it and offerings, saying, This is your god, O Israel, who took you up out of the land of Egypt.

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

bbe@Exodus:32:12 @Why let the Egyptians say, He took them out to an evil fate, to put them to death on the mountains, cutting them off from the earth? Let your wrath be turned away from them, and send not this evil on your people.

bbe@Exodus:32:13 @Have in mind Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you gave your oath, saying, I will make your seed like the stars of heaven in number, and all this land will I give to your seed, as I said, to be their heritage for ever.

bbe@Exodus:33:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, Go forward from this place, you and the people whom you have taken up out of the land of Egypt, to that land about which I made an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, To your seed will I give it.

bbe@Exodus:33:5 @And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, You are a stiff-necked people: if I come among you, even for a minute, I will send destruction on you; so take off all your ornaments, so that I may see what to do with you.

bbe@Exodus:33:12 @And Moses said to the Lord, See, you say to me, Be this people's guide on their journey, but you have not made clear to me whom you will send with me. But you have said, I have knowledge of you by name, and you have grace in my eyes.

bbe@Exodus:33:17 @And the Lord said to Moses, I will do as you say: for you have grace in my eyes, and I have knowledge of you by your name.

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

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

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

bbe@Leviticus:1:1 @And the voice of the Lord came to Moses out of the Tent of meeting, saying,

bbe@Leviticus:4:2 @Say to the children of Israel: These are the offerings of anyone who does wrong through error, doing any of the things which by the Lord's order are not to be done:

bbe@Leviticus:5:1 @And if anyone does wrong by saying nothing when he is put under oath as a witness of something he has seen or had knowledge of, then he will be responsible:

bbe@Leviticus:5:4 @Or if anyone, without thought, takes an oath to do evil or to do good, whatever he says without thought, with an oath, having no knowledge of what he is doing; when it becomes clear to him, he will be responsible for any of these things.

bbe@Leviticus:6:9 @Give orders to Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the law for the burned offering: the offering is to be on the fire-wood on the altar all night till the morning; and the fire of the altar is to be kept burning.

bbe@Leviticus:6:25 @Say to Aaron and his sons, This is the law for the sin-offering: the sin-offering is to be put to death before the Lord in the same place as the burned offering; it is most holy.

bbe@Leviticus:7:23 @Say to the children of Israel: You are not to take any fat, of ox or sheep or goat, for food.

bbe@Leviticus:7:29 @Say to the children of Israel: He who makes a peace-offering to the Lord, is to give an offering to the Lord out of his peace-offering:

bbe@Leviticus:8:31 @And Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, The flesh is to be cooked in water at the door of the Tent of meeting, and there you are to take it as food, together with the bread in the basket, as I have given orders, saying, It is the food of Aaron and his sons.

bbe@Leviticus:9:3 @And say to the children of Israel: Take a he-goat for a sin-offering, and a young ox and a lamb, in their first year, without any mark on them, for a burned offering;

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

bbe@Leviticus:11:2 @Say to the children of Israel: These are the living things which you may have for food among all the beasts on the earth.

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

bbe@Leviticus:13:3 @And if, when the priest sees the mark on his skin, the hair on the place is turned white and the mark seems to go deeper than the skin, it is the mark of a leper: and the priest, after looking at him, will say that he is unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:6 @And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; and if the mark is less bright and is not increased on his skin, then let the priest say that he is clean: it is only a skin-mark, and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:8 @And if, after looking at him, he sees that the mark is increased in his skin, let the priest say that he is unclean; he is a leper.

bbe@Leviticus:13:11 @It is an old disease in the skin of his flesh, and the priest will say that he is unclean; he will not have to be shut up, for he is clearly unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:13 @And if the priest sees that all his flesh is covered with the leper's disease, the priest will say that he is clean: it is all turned white, he is clean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:15 @And when the priest sees the diseased flesh he will say that he is unclean; the diseased flesh is unclean, he is a leper

bbe@Leviticus:13:17 @And the priest will see him: and if the place is turned white, then the priest will say that he is free from the disease.

bbe@Leviticus:13:20 @And after looking at it, if it seems to go deeper than the skin, and the hair on it is turned white, then the priest will say that the man is unclean: it is the leper's disease, it has come out in the bad place.

bbe@Leviticus:13:22 @And if it is increasing on the skin, the priest will say that he is unclean: it is a disease.

bbe@Leviticus:13:23 @But if the bright mark keeps in the same place and gets no greater, it is the mark of the old wound, and the priest will say that he is clean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:25 @The priest is to see it: and if the hair on the bright place is turned white and it seems to go deeper than the skin, he is a leper: it has come out in the burn, and the priest will say that he is unclean: it is the leper's disease.

bbe@Leviticus:13:27 @And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; if it is increased in the skin, then the priest will say that he is unclean: it is the leper's disease.

bbe@Leviticus:13:28 @And if the bright place keeps the same size and gets no greater on the skin, but is less bright, it is the effect of the burn, and the priest will say that he is clean: it is the mark of the burn.

bbe@Leviticus:13:30 @Then the priest is to see the diseased place: and if it seems to go deeper than the skin, and if there is thin yellow hair in it, then the priest will say that he is unclean: he has the mark of the leper's disease on his head or in the hair of his chin.

bbe@Leviticus:13:34 @And on the seventh day the priest will see the place: and if it is not increased, and does not seem to go deeper than the skin, the priest will say that he is clean: and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:36 @Then the priest is to see him: and if the mark is increased, the priest, without looking for the yellow hair, will say that he is unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:37 @But if, in his opinion, the growth is stopped, and black hair has come up on it, the disease has gone; he is clean and the priest will say that he is clean.

bbe@Leviticus:13:44 @He is a leper and unclean; the priest is to say that he is most certainly unclean: the disease is in his head.

bbe@Leviticus:13:59 @This is the law about the leper's disease in the thread of wool or linen material, in clothing or in anything of skin, saying how it is to be judged clean or unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:14:7 @And shaking it seven times over the man who is to be made clean, he will say that he is clean and will let the living bird go free into the open country.

bbe@Leviticus:14:35 @Then let the owner of the house come and say to the priest, It seems to me that there is a sort of leper's disease in the house.

bbe@Leviticus:14:48 @And if the priest comes in, and sees that the disease is not increased after the new paste has been put on the house, then the priest will say that the house is clean, because the disease is gone.

bbe@Leviticus:15:2 @Say to the children of Israel: If a man has an unclean flow from his flesh, it will make him unclean.

bbe@Leviticus:16:2 @The Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, your brother, that he may not come at all times into the holy place inside the veil, before the cover which is on the ark, for fear that death may overtake him; for I will be seen in the cloud on the cover of the ark.

bbe@Leviticus:17:2 @Say to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel: This is the order which the Lord has given.

bbe@Leviticus:17:8 @And say to them, If any man of Israel, or any other living among them, makes a burned offering or other offering,

bbe@Leviticus:18:2 @Say to the children of Israel, I am the Lord your God.

bbe@Leviticus:19:2 @Say to all the people of Israel, You are to be holy, for I, the Lord your God, am holy.

bbe@Leviticus:19:16 @Do not go about saying untrue things among your people, or take away the life of your neighbour by false witness: I am the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:20:2 @Again, say to the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or any other man living in Israel, gives his offspring to Molech, he is certainly to be put to death: he is to be stoned by the people of the land;

bbe@Leviticus:21:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the priests, the sons of Aaron, Let no man make himself unclean for the dead among his people;

bbe@Leviticus:21:17 @Say to Aaron, If a man of your family, in any generation, is damaged in body, let him not come near to make the offering of the bread of his God.

bbe@Leviticus:22:3 @Say to them, If any man of all your seed through all your generations, being unclean, comes near the holy things which the children of Israel make holy to the Lord, he will be cut off from before me: I am the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:22:18 @Say to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or of another nation living in Israel, makes an offering, given because of an oath or freely given to the Lord for a burned offering;

bbe@Leviticus:23:2 @Say to the children of Israel, These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, which you will keep for holy meetings: these are my feasts.

bbe@Leviticus:23:10 @Say to the children of Israel, When you have come to the land which I will give you, and have got in the grain from its fields, take some of the first-fruits of the grain to the priest;

bbe@Leviticus:23:24 @Say to the children of Israel, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, let there be a special day of rest for you, a day of memory, marked by the blowing of horns, a meeting for worship.

bbe@Leviticus:23:34 @Say to the children of Israel, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month let the feast of tents be kept to the Lord for seven days.

bbe@Leviticus:24:15 @And say to the children of Israel, As for any man cursing God, his sin will be on his head.

bbe@Leviticus:24:16 @And he who says evil against the name of the Lord will certainly be put to death; he will be stoned by all the people; the man who is not of your nation and one who is an Israelite by birth, whoever says evil against the holy Name is to be put to death.

bbe@Leviticus:25:2 @Say to the children of Israel, When you come into the land which I will give you, let the land keep a Sabbath to the Lord.

bbe@Leviticus:25:10 @And let this fiftieth year be kept holy, and say publicly that everyone in the land is free from debt: it is the Jubilee, and every man may go back to his heritage and to his family.

bbe@Leviticus:25:20 @And if you say, Where will our food come from in the seventh year, when we may not put in seed, or get in the increase

bbe@Leviticus:27:2 @Say to the children of Israel, If a man makes a special oath, you will give your decision as to the value of the persons for the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:5:6 @Say to the children of Israel, If a man or a woman does any of the sins of men, going against the word of the Lord, and is in the wrong;

bbe@Numbers:5:7 @Let them say openly what they have done; and make payment for the wrong done, with the addition of a fifth part, and give it to him to whom the wrong was done.

bbe@Numbers:5:12 @Say to the children of Israel, If any man's wife does wrong, sinning against him

bbe@Numbers:5:19 @And he will make her take an oath, and say to her, If no man has been your lover and you have not been with another in place of your husband, you are free from this bitter water causing the curse;

bbe@Numbers:5:21 @Then the priest will put the oath of the curse on the woman, and say to her, May the Lord make you a curse and an oath among your people, sending on you wasting of the legs and disease of the stomach;

bbe@Numbers:5:22 @And this water of the curse will go into your body, causing disease of your stomach and wasting of your legs: and the woman will say, So be it.

bbe@Numbers:6:2 @Say to the children of Israel, If a man or a woman takes an oath to keep himself separate and give himself to the Lord;

bbe@Numbers:6:23 @Say to Aaron and his sons, These are the words of blessing which are to be used by you in blessing the children of Israel; say to them,

bbe@Numbers:8:2 @Say to Aaron, When you put the lights in their places, the seven lights will give light in front of the support.

bbe@Numbers:9:10 @Say to the children of Israel, If any one of you or of your families is unclean because of a dead body, or is on a journey far away, still he is to keep the Passover to the Lord:

bbe@Numbers:11:1 @Now the people were saying evil against the Lord; and the Lord, hearing it, was angry and sent fire on them, burning the outer parts of the tent-circle.

bbe@Numbers:11:12 @Am I the father of all this people? have I given them birth, that you say to me, Take them in your arms, like a child at the breast, to the land which you gave by an oath to their fathers?

bbe@Numbers:11:13 @Where am I to get flesh to give to all this people? For they are weeping to me and saying, Give us flesh for our food.

bbe@Numbers:11:18 @And say to the people, Make yourselves clean before tomorrow and you will have flesh for your food: for in the ears of the Lord you have been weeping and saying, Who will give us flesh for food? for we were well off in Egypt: and so the Lord will give you flesh, and it will be your food;

bbe@Numbers:11:20 @But every day for a month, till you are tired of it, turning from it in disgust: because you have gone against the Lord who is with you, and have been weeping before him saying, Why did we come out of Egypt?

bbe@Numbers:12:8 @With him I will have talk mouth to mouth, openly and not in dark sayings; and with his eyes he will see the form of the Lord: why then had you no fear of saying evil against my servant Moses?

bbe@Numbers:13:32 @And they gave the children of Israel a bad account of the land they had been to see, saying, This land through which we went is a land causing destruction to those living in it; and all the people we saw there are men of more than common size.

bbe@Numbers:14:15 @Now if you put to death all this people as one man, then the nations who have had word of your glory will say,

bbe@Numbers:14:20 @And the Lord said, I have had mercy, as you say:

bbe@Numbers:14:27 @How long am I to put up with this evil people and their outcries against me? The words which they say against me have come to my ears.

bbe@Numbers:14:28 @Say to them, By my life, says the Lord, as certainly as your words have come to my ears, so certainly will I do this to you:

bbe@Numbers:14:40 @And early in the morning they got up and went to the top of the mountain, saying, We are here and we will go up to the place which the Lord said he would give us: for we have done wrong.

bbe@Numbers:15:2 @Say to the children of Israel, When you have come into the land which I am giving to you for your resting-place,

bbe@Numbers:15:18 @Say to the children of Israel, When you come into the land where I am guiding you,

bbe@Numbers:15:38 @Say to the children of Israel that through all their generations they are to put on the edges of their robes an ornament of twisted threads, and in every ornament a blue cord;

bbe@Numbers:16:24 @Say to the people, Come away from the tent of Korah Dathan, and Abiram.

bbe@Numbers:16:37 @Say to Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, that he is to take out of the flames the vessels with the perfumes in them, turning the fire out of them, for they are holy;

bbe@Numbers:16:41 @But on the day after, all the children of Israel made an outcry against Moses and against Aaron, saying, You have put to death the Lord's people.

bbe@Numbers:17:2 @Say to the children of Israel that they are to give you rods, one for every family, for every chief, the head of his father's house, making twelve rods; let every man's name be placed on his rod.

bbe@Numbers:18:26 @Say to the Levites, When you take from the children of Israel the tenth which I have given to you from them as your heritage, a tenth part of that tenth is to be offered as an offering lifted up before the Lord.

bbe@Numbers:18:30 @Say to them, then, When the best of it is lifted up on high, it is to be put to the account of the Levites as the increase of the grain-floor and of the place where the grapes are crushed.

bbe@Numbers:19:2 @This is the rule of the law which the Lord has made, saying, Give orders to the children of Israel to give you a red cow without any mark on her, and on which the yoke has never been put:

bbe@Numbers:20:14 @Then Moses sent men from Kadesh to the king of Edom to say to him, Your brother Israel says, You have knowledge of all the things we have been through;

bbe@Numbers:21:14 @As it says in the book of the Wars of the Lord, Vaheb in Suphah, and the valley of the Amon;

bbe@Numbers:21:21 @And Israel sent men to Sihon, king of the Amorites, saying,

bbe@Numbers:21:27 @So the makers of wise sayings say, Come to Heshbon, building up the town of Sihon and making it strong:

bbe@Numbers:22:5 @So he sent men to Balaam, son of Beor, at Pethor by the River in the land of the children of his people, saying to him, See, a people has come out of Egypt, covering all the face of the earth, and they have put up their tents opposite to me:

bbe@Numbers:22:7 @So the responsible men of Moab and Midian went away, taking in their hands rewards for the prophet; and they came to Balaam and said to him what Balak had given them orders to say.

bbe@Numbers:22:8 @And he said to them, Take your rest here tonight, and I will give you an answer after hearing what the Lord says; so the chiefs of Moab kept there with Balaam that night.

bbe@Numbers:22:10 @And Balaam said to God, Balak, the son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent them to me, saying,

bbe@Numbers:22:16 @And they came to Balaam and said, Balak, son of Zippor, says, Let nothing keep you from coming to me:

bbe@Numbers:22:17 @For I will give you a place of very great honour, and whatever you say to me I will do; so come, in answer to my prayer, and put a curse on this people.

bbe@Numbers:22:19 @So take your rest here this night, till I have knowledge what more the Lord has to say to me.

bbe@Numbers:22:20 @And that night God came to Balaam and said to him, If these men have come for you, go with them: but do only what I say to you.

bbe@Numbers:22:35 @And the angel of the Lord said to Balaam, Go with the men; but say only what I give you to say. Then Balaam went on with the chiefs of Balak.

bbe@Numbers:22:38 @Then Balaam said to Balak, Now I have come to you; but have I power to say anything? Only what God puts into my mouth may I say.

bbe@Numbers:23:3 @Then Balaam said to Balak, Take your place by your burned offering, and I will go and see if the Lord comes to me: and I will give you word of whatever he says to me. And he went to an open place on a hill.

bbe@Numbers:23:5 @And the Lord put words in Balaam's mouth, and said, Go back to Balak, and this is what you are to say.

bbe@Numbers:23:12 @And in answer he said, Am I not ordered to say only what the Lord puts into my mouth?

bbe@Numbers:23:16 @And the Lord came to Balaam, and put words in his mouth, and said, Go back to Balak, and this is what you are to say.

bbe@Numbers:23:19 @God is not a man, to say what is false; or the son of man, that his purpose may be changed: what he has said, will he not do? and will he not give effect to the words of his mouth?

bbe@Numbers:23:26 @But Balaam in answer said to Balak, Did I not say to you, I may only do what the Lord says?

bbe@Numbers:24:4 @He says, whose ears are open to the words of God, who has seen the vision of the Ruler of all, falling down, but having his eyes open:

bbe@Numbers:24:12 @Then Balaam said to Balak, Did I not say to the men you sent to me,

bbe@Numbers:24:13 @Even if Balak gave me his house full of silver and gold, it would not be possible for me to go outside the orders of the Lord, doing good or evil at the impulse of my mind; whatever the Lord says I will say?

bbe@Numbers:24:16 @He says, whose ear is open to the words of God, who has knowledge of the Most High, who has seen the vision of the Ruler of all, falling down and having his eyes open:

bbe@Numbers:25:12 @So say to them that I will make with him an agreement of peace:

bbe@Numbers:26:3 @So Moses and Eleazar the priest gave them the order in the lowlands of Moab by Jordan at Jericho, saying,

bbe@Numbers:27:7 @What the daughters of Zelophehad say is right: certainly you are to give them a heritage among their father's brothers: and let the property which would have been their father's go to them.

bbe@Numbers:27:8 @And say to the children of Israel, If a man has no son at the time of his death, let his heritage go to his daughter.

bbe@Numbers:28:2 @Give orders to the children of Israel and say to them, Let it be your care to give me my offerings at their regular times, the food of the offerings made by fire to me for a sweet smell.

bbe@Numbers:28:3 @Say to them, This is the offering made by fire which you are to give to the Lord; he-lambs of the first year without any mark, two every day as a regular burned offering.

bbe@Numbers:30:4 @If her father, hearing of her oath or the undertaking she has given, says nothing to her, then all her oaths and every undertaking she has given will have force.

bbe@Numbers:30:7 @If her husband, hearing of it, says nothing to her at the time, then the oaths she made and the undertakings she gave will have force.

bbe@Numbers:30:14 @But if the days go on, and her husband says nothing whatever to her, then he is giving the support of his authority to her oaths and undertakings, because at the time of hearing them he said nothing to her.

bbe@Numbers:32:10 @And at that time the Lord was moved to wrath, and made an oath, saying,

bbe@Numbers:32:25 @And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben said to Moses, Your servants will do as my lord says.

bbe@Numbers:32:27 @But your servants will go over, every man armed for war, before the Lord to the fight, as my lord says.

bbe@Numbers:33:51 @Say to the children of Israel, When you go over Jordan into the land of Canaan,

bbe@Numbers:34:2 @Give orders to the children of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land which is to be your heritage, the land of Canaan inside these limits,)

bbe@Numbers:34:13 @And Moses gave orders to the children of Israel saying, This is the land which is to be your heritage, by the decision of the Lord, which by the Lord's order is to be given to the nine tribes and the half-tribe:

bbe@Numbers:35:10 @Say to the children of Israel, when you have gone over Jordan into the land of Canaan;

bbe@Numbers:36:5 @So by the direction of the Lord, Moses gave orders to the children of Israel, saying, What the tribe of the sons of Joseph have said is right.

bbe@Numbers:36:6 @This is the order of the Lord about the daughters of Zelophehad: The Lord says, Let them take as their husbands whoever is most pleasing to them, but only among the family of their father's tribe.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:5 @On the far side of Jordan in the land of Moab, Moses gave the people this law, saying,

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:14 @And you made answer and said to me, It is good for us to do as you say.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:16 @And at that time I gave orders to your judges, saying, Let all questions between your brothers come before you for hearing, and give decisions uprightly between a man and his brother or one from another nation who is with him.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:25 @And taking in their hands some of the fruit of the land, they came down again to us, and gave us their account, saying, It is a good land which the Lord our God is giving us.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:28 @Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our hearts feeble with fear by saying, The people are greater and taller than we are, and the towns are great and walled up to heaven; and more than this, we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:37 @And, in addition, the Lord was angry with me because of you, saying, You yourself will not go into it:

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:38 @Joshua, the son of Nun, your servant, he will go into the land: say to him that he is to be strong, for he will be Israel's guide into their heritage.

bbe@Deuteronomy:1:42 @And the Lord said to me, Say to them, Do not go up to the attack; for I am not among you, and you will be overcome by those who are against you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:4 @And give the people orders, saying, You are about to go through the land of your brothers, the children of Esau, who are living in Seir; and they will have fear of you; so take care what you do:

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:17 @The word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Deuteronomy:2:26 @Then from the waste land of Kedemoth I sent representatives to Sihon, king of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying,

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:18 @At that time I gave you orders, saying, The Lord has given you this land for your heritage: all the men of war are to go over armed before your brothers the children of Israel.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:21 @And I gave orders to Joshua at that time, saying, Your eyes have seen what the Lord your God has done to these two kings: so will the Lord do to all the kingdoms into which you come.

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:23 @And at that time I made request to the Lord, saying,

bbe@Deuteronomy:3:26 @But the Lord was angry with me because of you and would not give ear to my prayer; and the Lord said to me, Let it be enough, say no more about this thing.

bbe@Deuteronomy:4:6 @So keep these laws and do them; for so will your wisdom and good sense be clear in the eyes of the peoples, who hearing all these laws will say, Truly, this great nation is a wise and far-seeing people.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:5 @(I was between the Lord and you at that time, to make clear to you the word of the Lord: because, through fear of the fire, you did not go up the mountain;) saying,

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:27 @Do you go near: and after hearing everything which the Lord our God has to say, give us an account of all he has said to you, and we will give ear, and do it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:5:30 @Now say to them, Go back to your tents.

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:6 @Keep these words, which I say to you this day, deep in your hearts;

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:20 @And when your son says to you in time to come, What is the reason for these rules and laws and decisions which the Lord our God has given you?

bbe@Deuteronomy:6:21 @Then you will say to your son, We were servants under Pharaoh's yoke in Egypt; and the Lord took us out of Egypt with a strong hand:

bbe@Deuteronomy:7:17 @If you say in your hearts, These nations are greater in number than we are: how are we to take their land from them?

bbe@Deuteronomy:8:17 @Say not then, in your hearts, My power and the strength of my hands have got me this wealth.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:4 @And after the Lord has sent them in flight from before you, say not in your heart, Because of my righteousness the Lord has given me this land; when it is because of their evil-doing that the Lord is driving these nations out before you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:9:23 @And when the Lord sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and take the land which I have given you; you went against the orders of the Lord your God, and had no faith in him, and would not give ear to his voice.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:20 @When the Lord your God makes wide the limit of your land, as he has said, and you say, I will take flesh for my food, because you have a desire for it; then you may take whatever flesh you have a desire for.

bbe@Deuteronomy:12:30 @After their destruction take care that you do not go in their ways, and that you do not give thought to their gods, saying, How did these nations give worship to their gods? I will do as they did.

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:2 @And the sign or the wonder takes place, and he says to you, Let us go after other gods, which are strange to you, and give them worship;

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:6 @If your brother, the son of your mother, or your son or your daughter or the wife of your heart, or the friend who is as dear to you as your life, working on you secretly says to you, Let us go and give worship to other gods, strange to you and to your fathers;

bbe@Deuteronomy:13:13 @That good-for-nothing persons have gone out from among you, turning the people of their town from the right way and saying, Let us go and give worship to other gods, of whom you have no knowledge;

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:9 @And see that there is no evil thought in your heart, moving you to say to yourself, The seventh year, the year of forgiveness is near; and so looking coldly on your poor countryman you give him nothing; and he will make an outcry to the Lord against you, and it will be judged as sin in you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:15:16 @But if he says to you, I have no desire to go away from you; because you and your family are dear to him and he is happy with you;

bbe@Deuteronomy:17:10 @And you are to be guided by the decision they give in the place named by the Lord, and do whatever they say:

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:18 @I will give them a prophet from among themselves, like you, and I will put my words in his mouth, and he will say to them whatever I give him orders to say.

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:19 @And whoever does not give ear to my words which he will say in my name, will be responsible to me.

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:20 @But the prophet who takes it on himself to say words in my name which I have not given him orders to say, or who says anything in the name of other gods, will come to his death.

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:21 @And if you say in your hearts, How are we to be certain that the word does not come from the Lord?

bbe@Deuteronomy:18:22 @When a prophet makes a statement in the name of the Lord, if what he says does not take place and his words do not come true, then his word is not the word of the Lord: the words of the prophet were said in the pride of his heart, and you are to have no fear of him.

bbe@Deuteronomy:19:16 @If a false witness makes a statement against a man, saying that he has done wrong,

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:2 @And when you are on the point of attacking, let the priest come forward and say to the people,

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:5 @And let the overseers say to the people, If there is any man who has made for himself a new house and has not gone into it, let him go back to his house, so that in the event of his death in the fight, another may not take his house for himself.

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:8 @And let the overseers go on to say to the people, If there is any man whose heart is feeble with fear, let him go back to his house before he makes the hearts of his countrymen feeble.

bbe@Deuteronomy:20:9 @Then, after saying these words to the people, let the overseers put captains over the army.

bbe@Deuteronomy:21:7 @Will say, This death is not the work of our hands and our eyes have not seen it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:21:20 @And say to them, This son of ours is hard-hearted and uncontrolled, he will not give attention to us; he gives himself up to pleasure and strong drink.

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:14 @And says evil things about her and gives her a bad name, saying, I took this woman, and when I had connection with her it was clear to me that she was not a virgin:

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:16 @And let the girl's father say to the responsible men, I gave my daughter to this man for his wife, but he has no love for her;

bbe@Deuteronomy:22:17 @And now he has put shame on her, saying that she is not a virgin; but here is the sign that she is a virgin. Then they are to put her clothing before the responsible men of the town.

bbe@Deuteronomy:25:7 @But if the man says he will not take his brother's wife, then let the wife go to the responsible men of the town, and say, My husband's brother will not keep his brother's name living in Israel; he will not do what it is right for a husband's brother to do.

bbe@Deuteronomy:25:8 @Then the responsible men of the town will send for the man, and have talk with him: and if he still says, I will not take her;

bbe@Deuteronomy:25:9 @Then his brother's wife is to come to him, before the responsible men of the town, and take his shoe off his foot, and put shame on him, and say, So let it be done to the man who will not take care of his brother's name

bbe@Deuteronomy:26:3 @And you are to come to him who is priest at that time, and say to him, I give witness today before the Lord your God, that I have come into the land which the Lord made an oath to our fathers to give us.

bbe@Deuteronomy:26:5 @And these are the words which you will say before the Lord your God: My father was a wandering Aramaean, and he went down with a small number of people into Egypt; there he became a great and strong nation:

bbe@Deuteronomy:26:13 @And say before the Lord your God, I have taken all the holy things out of my house and have given them to the Levite, and the man from a strange land, and him who has no father, and the widow, as you have given me orders: I have kept in mind all your orders, in nothing have I gone against them:

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:14 @Then the Levites are to say in a loud voice to all the men of Israel,

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:15 @Cursed is the man who makes any image of wood or stone or metal, disgusting to the Lord, the work of man's hands, and puts it up in secret. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:16 @Cursed is he who does not give honour to his father or mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:17 @Cursed is he who takes his neighbour's landmark from its place. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:18 @Cursed is he by whom the blind are turned out of the way. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:19 @Cursed is he who gives a wrong decision in the cause of a man from a strange land, or of one without a father, or of a widow. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:20 @Cursed is he who has sex relations with his father's wife, for he has put shame on his father. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:21 @Cursed is he who has sex relations with any sort of beast. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:22 @Cursed is he who has sex relations with his sister, the daughter of his father or of his mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:23 @Cursed is he who has sex relations with his mother-in-law. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:24 @Cursed is he who takes his neighbour's life secretly. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:25 @Cursed is he who for a reward puts to death one who has done no wrong. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:27:26 @Cursed is he who does not take this law to heart to do it. And let all the people say, So be it.

bbe@Deuteronomy:28:67 @In the morning you will say, If only it was evening! And at evening you will say, If only morning would come! Because of the fear in your hearts and the things which your eyes will see.

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:22 @And future generations, your children coming after you, and travellers from far countries, will say, when they see the punishments of that land and the diseases which the Lord has sent on it;

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:24 @Truly all the nations will say, Why has the Lord done so to this land? what is the reason for this great and burning wrath?

bbe@Deuteronomy:29:25 @Then men will say, Because they gave up the agreement of the Lord, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he took them out of the land of Egypt:

bbe@Deuteronomy:30:12 @They are not in heaven, for you to say, Who will go up to heaven for us and give us knowledge of them so that we may do them?

bbe@Deuteronomy:30:13 @And they are not across the sea, for you to say, Who will go over the sea for us and give us news of them so that we may do them?

bbe@Deuteronomy:31:17 @In that day my wrath will be moved against them, and I will be turned away from them, veiling my face from them, and destruction will overtake them, and unnumbered evils and troubles will come on them; so that in that day they will say, Have not these evils come on us because our God is not with us?

bbe@Deuteronomy:31:23 @Then he gave orders to Joshua, the son of Nun, saying to him, Be strong and take heart: for you are to go at the head of the children of Israel into the land which I made an oath to give them; and I will be with you.

bbe@Deuteronomy:31:28 @Get together before me all those who are in authority in your tribes, and your overseers, so that I may say these things in their hearing, and make heaven and earth my witnesses against them.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:27 @But for the fear that their haters, uplifted in their pride, might say, Our hand is strong, the Lord has not done all this.

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:37 @And he will say, Where are their gods, the rock in which they put their faith?

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:40 @For lifting up my hand to heaven I say, By my unending life,

bbe@Deuteronomy:32:45 @And after saying all this to the people,

bbe@Deuteronomy:34:4 @And the Lord said to him, This is the land about which I made an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed: now I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not go in there.

bbe@Joshua:1:1 @Now after the death of Moses, the servant of the Lord, the word of the Lord came to Joshua, the son of Nun, Moses' helper, saying,

bbe@Joshua:1:10 @Then Joshua gave their orders to those who were in authority over the people, saying,

bbe@Joshua:1:11 @Go through the tents and give orders to the people, saying, Get ready a store of food; for in three days you are to go over this river Jordan and take for your heritage the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

bbe@Joshua:1:16 @Then they said to Joshua in answer, Whatever you say to us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.

bbe@Joshua:2:3 @Then the king of Jericho sent to Rahab, saying, Send out the men who have come to you and are in your house; for they have come with the purpose of searching out all the land.

bbe@Joshua:2:20 @But if you say anything about our business here, then we will be free from the oath you have made us take.

bbe@Joshua:2:21 @And she said, Let it be as you say. Then she sent them away, and they went; and she put the bright red cord in the window.

bbe@Joshua:3:3 @Giving the people their orders, and saying, When you see the ark of the agreement of the Lord your God lifted up by the priests, the Levites, then get up from your places and go after it;

bbe@Joshua:3:8 @And you are to give orders to the priests who take up the ark of the agreement, and say, When you come to the edge of the waters of Jordan, go no further.

bbe@Joshua:4:3 @And say to them, Take up from the middle of Jordan, from the place where the feet of the priests were resting, twelve stones, and take them over with you and put them down in the place where you take your rest tonight.

bbe@Joshua:4:6 @So that this may be a sign among you; when your children say to you in time to come, What is the reason for these stones?

bbe@Joshua:4:7 @Then you will say to them, Because the waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the Lord's agreement; when it went over Jordan the waters of Jordan were cut off: and these stones will be a sign for the children of Israel, keeping it in their memory for ever.

bbe@Joshua:4:17 @So Joshua gave orders to the priests, saying, Come up now out of Jordan.

bbe@Joshua:4:21 @And he said to the children of Israel, When your children say to their fathers in time to come, What is the reason for these stones?

bbe@Joshua:4:22 @Then give your children the story, and say, Israel came over this river Jordan on dry land.

bbe@Joshua:5:14 @And he said, No; but I have come as captain of the armies of the Lord. Then Joshua, falling down with his face to the earth in worship, said, What has my lord to say to his servant?

bbe@Joshua:6:10 @And to the people Joshua gave an order, saying, You will give no cry, and make no sound, and let no word go out of your mouth till the day when I say, Give a loud cry; then give a loud cry.

bbe@Joshua:6:26 @Then Joshua gave the people orders with an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed before the Lord who puts his hand to the building up of this town: with the loss of his first son will he put the first stone of it in place, and with the loss of his youngest son he will put up its doors.

bbe@Joshua:7:8 @O Lord, what am I to say now that Israel have given way before their attackers?

bbe@Joshua:7:13 @Up! make the people holy; say to them, Make yourselves holy before tomorrow, for the Lord, the God of Israel, has said, There is a cursed thing among you, O Israel, and you will give way before your attackers in the fight till the cursed thing has been taken away from among you.

bbe@Joshua:8:4 @And he gave them their orders, saying, Go and take up your position secretly at the back of the town: do not go very far away, and let all of you be ready:

bbe@Joshua:8:6 @And they will come out after us, till we have got them away from the town; for they will say, They have gone in flight from us as before; so we will go in flight before them;

bbe@Joshua:9:11 @So the responsible men and all the people of our country said to us, Take food with you for the journey and go to them, and say to them, We are your servants: so now make an agreement with us.

bbe@Joshua:9:22 @Then Joshua sent for them, and said to them, Why have you been false to us, saying, We are very far from you, when you are living among us?

bbe@Joshua:10:3 @So Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent to Hoham, king of Hebron, and to Piram, king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia, king of Lachish, and to Debir, king of Eglon, saying,

bbe@Joshua:10:6 @And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the tent-circle at Gilgal, saying, Be not slow to send help to your servants; come up quickly to our support and keep us safe: for all the kings of the Amorites from the hill-country have come together against us.

bbe@Joshua:14:9 @And on that day Moses took an oath, saying, Truly the land where your feet have been placed will become a heritage for you and your children for ever, because you have been true to the Lord your God with all your heart.

bbe@Joshua:17:4 @And they came before Eleazar the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and before the chiefs, saying, The Lord gave orders to Moses to give us a heritage among our brothers: so in agreement with the orders of the Lord he gave them a heritage among their father's brothers.

bbe@Joshua:18:8 @So the men got up and went; and Joshua gave orders to those who went, to make a record of the land, saying, Go up and down through the land, and make a record of it and come back here to me, and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord in Shiloh.

bbe@Joshua:20:2 @Say to the children of Israel, Let certain towns be marked out as safe places, as I said to you by the mouth of Moses,

bbe@Joshua:22:24 @And if we have not, in fact, done this designedly and with purpose, having in our minds the fear that in time to come your children might say to our children, What have you to do with the Lord, the God of Israel?

bbe@Joshua:22:27 @But to be a witness between us and you, and between the future generations, that we have the right of worshipping the Lord with our burned offerings and our offerings of beasts and our peace-offerings; so that your children will not be able to say to our children in time to come, You have no part in the Lord.

bbe@Joshua:22:28 @For we said to ourselves, If they say this to us or to future generations, then we will say, See this copy of the Lord's altar which our fathers made, not for burned offerings or offerings of beasts, but for a witness between us and you.

bbe@Judges:1:1 @Now after the death of Joshua, the children of Israel made request to the Lord, saying, Who is to go up first to make war for us against the Canaanites?

bbe@Judges:3:19 @But he himself, turning back from the stone images at Gilgal, said, I have something to say to you in secret, O king. And he said, Let there be quiet. Then all those who were waiting before him went out.

bbe@Judges:4:6 @And she sent for Barak, the son of Abinoam, from Kedesh-naphtali, and said to him, Has not the Lord, the God of Israel, given orders saying, Go and get your force into line in Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?

bbe@Judges:4:20 @And he said to her, Take your place at the door of the tent, and if anyone comes and says to you, Is there any man here, say, No.

bbe@Judges:5:1 @At that time Deborah and Barak, the son of Abinoam, made this song, saying:

bbe@Judges:6:13 @Then Gideon said to him, O my lord, if the Lord is with us why has all this come on us? And where are all his works of power, of which our fathers have given us word, saying, Did not the Lord take us out of Egypt? But now he has given us up, handing us over to the power of Midian.

bbe@Judges:6:32 @So that day he gave him the name of Jerubbaal, saying, Let Baal take up his cause against him because his altar has been broken down.

bbe@Judges:6:39 @Then Gideon said to God, Do not be moved to wrath against me if I say only this: let me make one more test with the wool; let the wool now be dry, while the earth is covered with dew.

bbe@Judges:7:2 @And the Lord said to Gideon, So great is the number of your people, that if I give the Midianites into their hands they will be uplifted in pride over me and will say, I myself have been my saviour.

bbe@Judges:7:4 @Then the Lord said to Gideon, There are still more people than is necessary; take them down to the water so that I may put them to the test for you there; then whoever I say is to go with you will go, and whoever I say is not to go will not go.

bbe@Judges:7:11 @And after hearing what they are saying, you will get strength to go down against the army. So he went down with his servant Purah to the outer line of the tents of the armed men.

bbe@Judges:7:13 @When Gideon came there, a man was giving his friend an account of his dream, saying, See, I had a dream about a cake of barley bread which, falling into the tents of Midian, came on to the tent, overturning it so that it was stretched out flat on the earth.

bbe@Judges:7:18 @At the sound of my horn, and the horns of those who are with me, let your horns be sounded all round the tents, and say, For the Lord and for Gideon.

bbe@Judges:7:24 @Then Gideon sent through all the hill-country of Ephraim saying, Come down against Midian, and keep the ways across Jordan before they come. So all the men of Ephraim, massing themselves together, kept the ways across Jordan.

bbe@Judges:8:15 @So he came to the men of Succoth and said, Here are Zebah and Zalmunna, on account of whom you made sport of me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna even now in your hand, that we are to give bread to your army who are overcome with weariness?

bbe@Judges:9:2 @Say now in the ears of all the townsmen of Shechem, Is it better for you to be ruled by all the seventy sons of Jerubbaal or by one man only? And keep in mind that I am your bone and your flesh.

bbe@Judges:9:29 @If only I had authority over this people! I would put Abimelech out of the way, and I would say to Abimelech, Make your army strong, and come out.

bbe@Judges:9:31 @And he sent to Abimelech at Arumah, saying, See, Gaal, the son of Ebed, and his brothers have come to Shechem, and they are working up the town against you.

bbe@Judges:9:54 @Then quickly crying out to his body-servant, he said to him, Take out your sword and put an end to me straight away, so that men may not say of me, His death was the work of a woman. So the young man put his sword through him, causing his death.

bbe@Judges:11:2 @And Gilead's wife gave birth to sons, and when her sons became men, they sent Jephthah away, saying, You have no part in the heritage of our father's house, for you are the son of another woman.

bbe@Judges:11:10 @And the responsible men of Gilead said to Jephthah, May the Lord be our witness: we will certainly do as you say.

bbe@Judges:11:12 @Then Jephthah sent men to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What have you against me that you have come to make war against my land?

bbe@Judges:11:17 @Then Israel sent men to the king of Edom saying, Let me now go through your land; but the king of Edom did not give ear to them. And in the same way he sent to the king of Moab, but he would not; so Israel went on living in Kadesh.

bbe@Judges:12:6 @Then they said to him, Now say Shibboleth; and he said Sibboleth, and was not able to say it in the right way; then they took him and put him to death at the crossing-places of Jordan; and at that time forty-two thousand Ephraimites were put to death.

bbe@Judges:13:10 @So the woman, running quickly, gave her husband the news, saying, I have seen the man who came to me the other day.

bbe@Judges:14:9 @And he took the honey in his hand, and went on, tasting it on the way; and when he came to his father and mother he gave some to them; but did not say that he had taken the honey from the body of the lion.

bbe@Judges:16:2 @And it was said to the Gazites, Samson is here. So they went round, watching for him all day at the doorway of the town, but at night they kept quiet, saying, When daylight comes we will put him to death.

bbe@Judges:16:10 @Then Delilah said to Samson, See, you have been making sport of me with false words; now, say truly how may you be put in bands?

bbe@Judges:16:13 @Then Delilah said to Samson, Up to now you have made sport of me with false words; now say truly, how may you be put in bands? And he said to her, If you get the seven twists of my hair worked into the cloth you are making and fixed with the pin, I will become feeble and will be like any other man.

bbe@Judges:16:15 @And she said to him, Why do you say you are my lover when your heart is not mine? Three times you have made sport of me, and have not made clear to me the secret of your great strength.

bbe@Judges:16:18 @And when Delilah saw that he had let her see into his heart, she sent word to the chiefs of the Philistines saying, Come up this time, for he has let out all his heart to me. Then the chiefs of the Philistines came to her, with the money in their hands.

bbe@Judges:18:19 @And they said to him, Be quiet; say nothing, and come with us and be our father and priest; is it better for you to be priest to one man's house or to be priest to a tribe and a family in Israel?

bbe@Judges:18:24 @And he said, You have taken my gods which I made, and my priest, and have gone away; what is there for me now? Why then do you say to me, What is your trouble?

bbe@Judges:18:25 @And the children of Dan said to him, Say no more, or men of bitter spirit may make an attack on you, causing loss of your life and the lives of your people.

bbe@Judges:19:30 @And he gave orders to the men whom he sent, saying, This is what you are to say to all the men of Israel, Has ever an act like this been done from the day when the children of Israel came out of Egypt to this day? Give thought to it, turning it over in your minds, and give your opinion of it.

bbe@Judges:20:12 @And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin saying, What is this evil which has been done among you?

bbe@Judges:20:23 @Now the children of Israel went up, weeping before the Lord till evening, requesting the Lord and saying, Am I to go forward again to the fight against the children of Benjamin my brother? And the Lord said, Go up against him.

bbe@Judges:20:39 @The men of Israel were to make a turn about in the fight. And Benjamin had overcome and put to death about thirty of the men of Israel, and were saying, Certainly they are falling back before us as in the first fight.

bbe@Judges:21:1 @Now the men of Israel had taken an oath in Mizpah, saying, Not one of us will give his daughter as a wife to Benjamin.

bbe@Judges:21:6 @And the children of Israel were moved with pity for Benjamin their brother, saying, Today one tribe has been cut off from Israel.

bbe@Judges:21:10 @So they (the meeting) sent twelve thousand of the best fighting-men, and gave them orders, saying, Go and put the people of Jabesh-gilead to the sword without mercy, with their women and their little ones.

bbe@Judges:21:18 @Seeing that we may not give them our daughters as wives? For the children of Israel had taken an oath, saying, Cursed is he who gives a wife to Benjamin.

bbe@Judges:21:22 @And when their fathers or their brothers come and make trouble, you are to say to them, Give them to us as an act of grace; for we did not take them as wives for ourselves in war; and if you yourselves had given them to us you would have been responsible for the broken oath.

bbe@Ruth:2:15 @And when she got ready to take up the grain, Boaz gave his young men orders, saying, Let her take it even from among the cut grain, and say nothing to her.

bbe@Ruth:3:4 @But see to it, when he goes to rest, that you take note of the place where he is sleeping, and go in there, and, uncovering his feet, take your place by him; and he will say what you are to do.

bbe@Ruth:3:11 @And now, my daughter, have no fear; I will do for you whatever you say: for it is clear to all my townspeople that you are a woman of virtue.

bbe@Ruth:3:17 @And she said, He gave me these six measures of grain, saying, Do not go back to your mother-in-law with nothing in your hands.

bbe@Ruth:4:4 @And it was in my mind to give you the chance of taking it, with the approval of those seated here and of the responsible men of my people. If you are ready to do what it is right for a relation to do, then do it: but if you will not do it, say so to me now; for there is no one who has the right to do it but you, and after you myself. And he said, I will do it.

bbe@Ruth:4:17 @And the women who were her neighbours gave it a name, saying, Naomi has a child; and they gave him the name of Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

bbe@1Samuel:2:30 @For this reason the Lord God of Israel has said, Truly I did say that your family and your father's people would have their place before me for ever: but now the Lord says, Let it not be so; I will give honour to those by whom I am honoured, and those who have no respect for me will be of small value in my eyes.

bbe@1Samuel:2:36 @Then it will be that the rest of your family, anyone who has not been cut off, will go down on his knees to him for a bit of silver or a bit of bread, and say, Be pleased to put me into one of the priest's places so that I may have a little food.

bbe@1Samuel:3:5 @And running to Eli he said, Here am I, for you said my name. And Eli said, I did not say your name; go to your rest again. So he went back to his bed.

bbe@1Samuel:3:9 @So Eli said to Samuel, Go back: and if the voice comes again, let your answer be, Say on, Lord; for the ears of your servant are open. So Samuel went back to his bed.

bbe@1Samuel:3:13 @And you are to say to him that I will send punishment on his family for ever, for the sin which he had knowledge of; because his sons have been cursing God and he had no control over them.

bbe@1Samuel:3:17 @And he said, What did the Lord say to you? Do not keep it from me: may God's punishment be on you if you keep from me anything he said to you.

bbe@1Samuel:4:21 @And she gave the child the name of Ichabod, saying, The glory has gone from Israel: because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.

bbe@1Samuel:5:10 @So they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And when the ark of God came to Ekron, the people of the town made an outcry, saying, They have sent the ark of the God of Israel to us for the destruction of us and of our people.

bbe@1Samuel:6:21 @And they sent men to the people living in Kiriath-jearim, saying, The Philistines have sent back the ark of the Lord; come and take it up to your country.

bbe@1Samuel:7:12 @Then Samuel took a stone and put it up between Mizpah and Jeshanah, naming it Eben-ezer, and saying, Up to now the Lord has been our help.

bbe@1Samuel:8:7 @And the Lord said to Samuel, Give ear to the voice of the people and what they say to you: they have not been turned away from you, but they have been turned away from me, not desiring me to be king over them.

bbe@1Samuel:8:21 @Then Samuel, after hearing all the people had to say, went and gave an account of it to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:9:6 @But the servant said to him, See now, in this town there is a man of God, who is highly honoured, and everything he says comes true: let us go there now; it may be that he will give us directions about our journey.

bbe@1Samuel:9:15 @Now the day before Saul came, the word of God had come to Samuel, saying,

bbe@1Samuel:9:21 @And Saul said, Am I not a man of Benjamin, the smallest of all the tribes of Israel? and my family the least of the families of Benjamin? why then do you say these words to me?

bbe@1Samuel:10:2 @When you have gone away from me today, you will see two men by the resting-place of Rachel's body, in the land of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to you, The asses which you went in search of have come back, and now your father, caring no longer for the asses, is troubled about you, saying, What am I to do about my son?

bbe@1Samuel:10:4 @They will say, Peace be with you, and will give you two cakes of bread, which you are to take from them.

bbe@1Samuel:10:12 @And one of the people of that place said in answer, And who is their father? So it became a common saying, Is even Saul among the prophets?

bbe@1Samuel:10:15 @Then he said, And what did Samuel say to you?

bbe@1Samuel:11:7 @And he took two oxen and, cutting them up, sent them through all the land of Israel by the hand of runners, saying, If any man does not come out after Saul and Samuel, this will be done to his oxen. And the fear of the Lord came on the people and they came out like one man.

bbe@1Samuel:11:9 @Then he said to the representatives who had come, Say to the men of Jabesh-gilead, Tomorrow, by the time the sun is high, you will be made safe. And the representatives came and gave the news to the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.

bbe@1Samuel:14:9 @If they say to us, Keep quiet where you are till we come to you; then we will keep our places and not go up to them.

bbe@1Samuel:14:10 @But if they say, Come up to us; then we will go up, for the Lord has given them into our hands: and this will be the sign to us.

bbe@1Samuel:14:12 @And the armed men of the force gave Jonathan and his servant their answer, saying, Come up here to us, and we will let you see something. Then Jonathan said to his servant, Come up after me: for the Lord has given them up into the hands of Israel.

bbe@1Samuel:14:24 @And all the people were with Saul, about twenty thousand men, and the fight was general through all the hill-country of Ephraim; but Saul made a great error that day, by putting the people under an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed who takes food before evening comes and I have given punishment to those who are against me. So the people had not a taste of food.

bbe@1Samuel:14:28 @Then one of the people said to him, Your father put the people under an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed who takes any food this day. And the people were feeble, needing food.

bbe@1Samuel:14:34 @And Saul said, Go about among the people and say to them, Let every man come here to me with his ox and his sheep, and put them to death here, and take his meal: do no sin against the Lord by taking the blood with the flesh. So all the people took their oxen with them that night and put them to death there.

bbe@1Samuel:15:2 @The Lord of armies says, I will give punishment to Amalek for what he did to Israel, fighting against him on the way when Israel came out of Egypt.

bbe@1Samuel:15:16 @Then Samuel said to Saul, Say no more! Let me give you word of what the Lord has said to me this night. And he said to him, Say on.

bbe@1Samuel:15:29 @And further, the Glory of Israel will not say what is false, and his purpose may not be changed: for he is not a man, whose purpose may be changed.

bbe@1Samuel:16:2 @And Samuel said, How is it possible for me to go? If Saul gets news of it he will put me to death. And the Lord said, Take a young cow with you and say, I have come to make an offering to the Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:16:22 @And Saul sent to Jesse saying, Let David be with me, for he is pleasing to me.

bbe@1Samuel:17:18 @And take these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand, and see how your brothers are and come back with a sign to say how they are.

bbe@1Samuel:18:8 @And Saul was very angry and this saying was unpleasing to him; and he said, They have given David credit for tens of thousands, and to me for only thousands: what more is there for him but the kingdom?

bbe@1Samuel:18:22 @And Saul gave his servants orders saying, Have talk with David secretly and say to him, See how the king has delight in you, and how you are loved by all his servants: then be the king's son-in-law.

bbe@1Samuel:18:25 @And Saul said, Then say to David, The king has no desire for any bride-price, but only for the private parts of a hundred Philistines so that the king may get the better of his haters. But it was in Saul's mind that David might come to his end by the hands of the Philistines.

bbe@1Samuel:19:15 @And Saul sent his men to see David, saying, Do not come back without him, take him in his bed, so that I may put him to death.

bbe@1Samuel:19:24 @And he took off his clothing, acting like a prophet before Samuel, and falling down he was stretched out, without his clothing, all that day and all that night. This is the reason for the saying, Is even Saul among the prophets?

bbe@1Samuel:20:3 @But David took his oath again and said, Your father sees that I am dear to you; so he says to himself, Let Jonathan have no idea of this, for it will be a grief to him; but as the Lord is living, and as your soul is living, there is only a step between me and death.

bbe@1Samuel:20:6 @And if your father takes note of the fact that I am away, say, David made a request to me for himself that he might go to Beth-lehem, to his town: for it is the time when his family make their offering year by year.

bbe@1Samuel:20:7 @If he says, It is well, your servant will be at peace: but if he is angry, then it will be clear to you that he has an evil purpose in mind against me.

bbe@1Samuel:20:21 @And I will send my boy to have a look for the arrow. And if I say to him, See, the arrow is on this side of you; take it up! then you may come; for there is peace for you and no evil, by the living Lord.

bbe@1Samuel:20:22 @But if I say to the boy, See, the arrow has gone past you: then go on your way, for the Lord has sent you away.

bbe@1Samuel:20:29 @Saying, Our family is making an offering in the town, and my brothers have given me orders to be there: so now, if I have grace in your eyes, let me go away and see my brothers. This is why he has not come to the king's table.

bbe@1Samuel:20:42 @And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, for we two have taken an oath, in the name of the Lord, saying, The Lord will be between me and you, and between my seed and your seed for ever.

bbe@1Samuel:21:2 @And David said to Ahimelech the priest, The king has given me orders and has said to me, Say nothing to anyone about the business on which I am sending you and the orders I have given you: and a certain place has been fixed to which the young men are to go.

bbe@1Samuel:21:11 @And the servants of Achish said to him, Is not this David, the king of the land? did they not make songs about him in their dances, saying, Saul has put to death thousands, and David tens of thousands?

bbe@1Samuel:23:1 @And they sent word to David, saying, The Philistines are fighting against Keilah and taking the grain from the grain-floors.

bbe@1Samuel:23:11 @And now, is it true, as they have said to me, that Saul is coming? O Lord, the God of Israel, give ear to your servant, and say if these things are so. And the Lord said, He is coming down.

bbe@1Samuel:23:22 @Go now, and take more steps, and see where he is living: for they say that he is expert in deceit.

bbe@1Samuel:23:27 @But a man came to Saul saying, Be quick and come; for the Philistines have made an attack on the land.

bbe@1Samuel:24:4 @And David's men said to him, Now is the time when the Lord says to you, I will give up your hater into your hands to do with him whatever seems good to you. Then David, getting up, took the skirt of Saul's robe in his hand, cutting off the end of it without his knowledge.

bbe@1Samuel:24:9 @And David said to Saul, Why do you give any attention to those who say that it is my desire to do you wrong?

bbe@1Samuel:24:13 @There is an old saying, From the evil-doer comes evil: but my hand will never be lifted up against you.

bbe@1Samuel:25:5 @And David sent ten young men, and said to them, Go up to Carmel and go to Nabal, and say kind words to him in my name;

bbe@1Samuel:25:6 @And say this to my brother, May all be well for you: peace be to you and your house and all you have.

bbe@1Samuel:25:8 @If your young men are questioned they will say the same thing. So now, let my young men have grace in your eyes, for we are come at a good time; please give anything you may have by you to your servants and to your son David.

bbe@1Samuel:25:14 @But one of the young men said to Nabal's wife Abigail, David sent men from the waste land to say kind words to our master, and he gave them a rough answer.

bbe@1Samuel:25:17 @So now, give thought to what you are going to do; for evil is in store for our master and all his house: for he is such a good-for-nothing person that it is not possible to say anything to him.

bbe@1Samuel:25:24 @And falling at his feet she said, May the wrong be on me, my lord, on me: let your servant say a word to you, and give ear to the words of your servant.

bbe@1Samuel:26:19 @Let my lord the king give ear now to the words of his servant. If it is the Lord who is moving you against me, let him take an offering: but if it is the children of men, may they be cursed before the Lord, for driving me out today and keeping me from my place in the heritage of the Lord, saying, Go, be the servant of other gods.

bbe@1Samuel:27:11 @Not one living man or woman did David ever take back with him to Gath, fearing that they might give an account of what had taken place, and say, This is what David did, and so has he been doing all the time while he has been living in the land of the Philistines.

bbe@1Samuel:27:12 @And Achish had belief in what David said, saying, He has made himself hated by all his people Israel, and so he will be my servant for ever.

bbe@1Samuel:28:10 @And Saul made an oath to her by the Lord, saying, By the living Lord, no punishment will come to you for this.

bbe@1Samuel:28:23 @But he would not, saying, I have no desire for food. But his servants, together with the woman, made him take food, and he gave way to them. So he got up from the earth, and took his seat on the bed.

bbe@1Samuel:30:26 @And when David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the goods to the responsible men of Judah, and to his friends, saying, Here is an offering for you from the goods of those who were fighting against the Lord;

bbe@2Samuel:1:16 @And David said to him, May your blood be on your head; for your mouth has given witness against you, saying, I have put to death the man marked with the holy oil.

bbe@2Samuel:3:8 @And Abner was very angry at the words of Ish-bosheth, and he said, Am I a dog's head of Judah? I am this day doing all in my power for the cause of your father Saul and for his brothers and his friends, and have not given you up into the hands of David, and now you say I have done wrong with a woman.

bbe@2Samuel:3:11 @And so great was Ish-bosheth's fear of Abner that he was not able to say a word in answer.

bbe@2Samuel:3:12 @And Abner sent men to David at Hebron, saying, Make an agreement with me, and I will give you my support in getting all Israel on your side.

bbe@2Samuel:3:14 @And David sent men to Saul's son Ish-bosheth, saying, Give me back Michal, my wife, whom I made mine for the price of the private parts of a hundred Philistines.

bbe@2Samuel:3:17 @Then Abner had a talk with the chief men of Israel, saying, In the past it was your desire to make David your king: so now, do it:

bbe@2Samuel:5:8 @And that day David said, Whoever makes an attack on the Jebusites, let him go up by the water-pipe, and put to death all the blind and feeble-footed who are hated by David. And this is why they say, The blind and feeble-footed may not come into the house.

bbe@2Samuel:7:4 @Now that night the word of the Lord came to Nathan, saying,

bbe@2Samuel:7:5 @Go and say to my servant David, The Lord says, Are you to be the builder of a house, a living-place for me?

bbe@2Samuel:7:7 @In all the places where I went with all the children of Israel, did I ever say to any of the judges of Israel, to whom I gave the care of my people Israel, Why have you not made me a house of cedar?

bbe@2Samuel:7:8 @Then say these words to my servant David, The Lord of armies says, I took you from the fields, from keeping the sheep, so that you might be a ruler over my people, over my people Israel:

bbe@2Samuel:7:11 @From the time when I put judges over my people Israel; and I will give you peace from all who are against you. And the Lord says to you that he will make you the head of a line of kings.

bbe@2Samuel:7:20 @What more may David say to you? for you have knowledge of your servant, O Lord God.

bbe@2Samuel:7:26 @And let your name be made great for ever, and let men say, The Lord of armies is God over Israel: and let the family of David your servant be made strong before you!

bbe@2Samuel:11:6 @And David sent to Joab saying, Send Uriah the Hittite to me. And Joab sent Uriah to David.

bbe@2Samuel:11:19 @And he gave orders to the man who took the news, saying, After you have given the king all the news about the war,

bbe@2Samuel:11:20 @If the king is angry and says, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall?

bbe@2Samuel:11:21 @Who put Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, to death? did not a woman send a great stone down on him from the wall, putting him to death at Thebez? why did you go so near the wall? Then say to him, Your servant Uriah the Hittite is among the dead.

bbe@2Samuel:11:25 @Then David said to the man, Go and say to Joab, Do not let this be a grief to you; for one man may come to his death by the sword like another: put up an even stronger fight against the town, and take it: and do you put heart into him.

bbe@2Samuel:12:7 @And Nathan said to David, You are that man. The Lord God of Israel says, I made you king over Israel, putting holy oil on you, and I kept you safe from the hands of Saul;

bbe@2Samuel:12:11 @The Lord says, From those of your family I will send evil against you, and before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to your neighbour, and he will take your wives to his bed by the light of this sun.

bbe@2Samuel:12:22 @And he said, While the child was still living I went without food and gave myself up to weeping: for I said, Who is able to say that the Lord will not have mercy on me and give the child life?

bbe@2Samuel:12:27 @And Joab sent men to David, saying, I have made war against Rabbah and have taken the water-town.

bbe@2Samuel:13:4 @And he said to him, O son of the king, why are you getting thinner day by day? will you not say what your trouble is? And Amnon said to him, I am in love with Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.

bbe@2Samuel:13:5 @Then Jonadab said to him, Go to your bed, and let it seem that you are ill: and when your father comes to see you, say to him, Let my sister Tamar come and give me bread, and get the food ready before my eyes, so that I may see it and take it from her hand.

bbe@2Samuel:13:28 @Now Absalom had given orders to his servants, saying, Now take note when Amnon's heart is glad with wine; and when I say to you, Make an attack on Amnon, then put him to death without fear: have I not given you orders? be strong and without fear.

bbe@2Samuel:13:34 @But Absalom went in flight. And the young man who kept the watch, lifting up his eyes, saw that a great band of people was coming down the slope by the way of the Horons; and the watchman came and gave word to the king, saying, I saw men coming down by the way of the Horons, from the hillside.

bbe@2Samuel:14:3 @And come to the king and say these words to him. So Joab gave her words to say.

bbe@2Samuel:14:7 @And now all the family is turned against me, your servant, saying, Give up him who was the cause of his brother's death, so that we may put him to death in payment for the life of his brother, whose life he took; and we will put an end to the one who will get the heritage: so they will put out my last burning coal, and my husband will have no name or offspring on the face of the earth.

bbe@2Samuel:14:10 @And the king said, If anyone says anything to you, make him come to me, and he will do you no more damage.

bbe@2Samuel:14:12 @Then the woman said, Will the king let his servant say one word more? And he said, Say on.

bbe@2Samuel:14:13 @And the woman said, Why have you had such a thought about the people of God? (for in saying these very words the king has put himself in the wrong because he has not taken back the one whom he sent far away.)

bbe@2Samuel:14:15 @And now it is my fear of the people which has made me come to say these words to my lord the king: and your servant said, I will put my cause before the king, and it may be that he will give effect to my request.

bbe@2Samuel:14:18 @Then the king said to the woman, Now give me an answer to the question I am going to put to you; keep nothing back. And the woman said, Let my lord the king say on.

bbe@2Samuel:14:32 @And Absalom's answer was, See, I sent to you saying, Come here, so that I may send you to the king to say, Why have I come back from Geshur? it would be better for me to be there still: let me now see the king's face, and if there is any sin in me, let him put me to death.

bbe@2Samuel:15:2 @And Absalom got up early, morning after morning, and took his place at the side of the public meeting-place: and when any man had a cause which had to come to the king to be judged, then Absalom, crying out to him, said, What is your town? and he would say, Your servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:15:3 @And Absalom would say to him, See, your cause is true and right; but no man has been named by the king to give you a hearing.

bbe@2Samuel:15:8 @For while I was living in Geshur in Aram, your servant made an oath, saying, If ever the Lord lets me come back to Jerusalem, I will give him worship in Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:15:10 @But Absalom at the same time sent watchers through all the tribes of Israel to say, At the sound of the horn you are to say, Absalom is king in Hebron.

bbe@2Samuel:15:15 @And the king's servants said to the king, See, your servants are ready to do whatever the king says is to be done.

bbe@2Samuel:15:26 @But if he says, I have no delight in you: then, here I am; let him do to me what seems good to him.

bbe@2Samuel:15:31 @And word came to David, saying, Ahithophel is among those who are joined to Absalom. And David said, O Lord, let the wisdom of Ahithophel be made foolish.

bbe@2Samuel:15:34 @But if you go back to the town and say to Absalom, I will be your servant, O king; as in the past I have been your father's servant, so now I will be yours: then you will be able to keep Ahithophel's designs against me from being put into effect.

bbe@2Samuel:16:10 @And the king said, What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Let him go on cursing, for the Lord has said, Put a curse on David, and who then may say, Why have you done so?

bbe@2Samuel:17:4 @And the saying was pleasing to Absalom and to the responsible men of Israel.

bbe@2Samuel:17:5 @Then Absalom said, Now send for Hushai the Archite, and let us give ear to what he has to say.

bbe@2Samuel:17:6 @And when Hushai came, Absalom said to him, This is what Ahithophel has said: are we to do as he says? if not, what is your suggestion?

bbe@2Samuel:17:9 @But he will certainly have taken cover now in some hole or secret place; and if some of our people, at the first attack, are overcome, then any hearing of it will say, There is destruction among the people who are on Absalom's side.

bbe@2Samuel:17:16 @So now send the news quickly to David, and say, Do not take your night's rest by the way across the river to the waste land, but be certain to go over; or the king and all the people with him will come to destruction.

bbe@2Samuel:18:5 @And the king gave orders to Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Because of me, be gentle to the young man Absalom. And this order about Absalom was given in the hearing of all the people.

bbe@2Samuel:18:12 @And the man said to Joab, Even if you gave me a thousand bits of silver, I would not put out my hand against the king's son: for in our hearing the king gave orders to you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Take care that the young man Absalom is not touched.

bbe@2Samuel:18:33 @Then the king was much moved, and went up into the room over the door, weeping, and saying, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! if only my life might have been given for yours, O Absalom, my son, my son!

bbe@2Samuel:19:7 @So get up now, and go out and say some kind words to your servants; for, by the Lord, I give you my oath, that if you do not go out, not one of them will keep with you tonight; and that will be worse for you than all the evil which has overtaken you from your earliest years.

bbe@2Samuel:19:9 @And through all the tribes of Israel the people were having arguments, saying, The king made us safe from the hands of those who were against us and made us free from the hands of the Philistines; and now he has gone in flight from the land, because of Absalom.

bbe@2Samuel:19:11 @And King David sent word to Zadok and Abiathar, the priests, Say to the responsible men of Judah, Why are you the last to take steps to get the king back to his house?

bbe@2Samuel:19:13 @And say to Amasa, Are you not my bone and my flesh? May God's punishment be on me, if I do not make you chief of the army before me at all times in place of Joab!

bbe@2Samuel:19:14 @And the hearts of the men of Judah were moved like one man; so that they sent to the king, saying, Come back, with all your servants.

bbe@2Samuel:19:28 @For all my father's family were only dead men before my lord the king: and still you put your servant among those whose place is at the king's table. What right then have I to say anything more to the king?

bbe@2Samuel:19:29 @And the king said, Say nothing more about these things. I say, Let there be a division of the land between Ziba and you.

bbe@2Samuel:20:16 @Then a wise woman got up on the wall, and crying out from the town, said, Give ear, give ear; say now to Joab, Come near, so that I may have talk with you.

bbe@2Samuel:20:18 @Then she said, In the old days, there was a saying, Let them put the question in Abel and in Dan, saying, Has what was ordered by men of good faith in Israel ever come to an end?

bbe@2Samuel:21:4 @And the Gibeonites said to him, It is not a question of silver and gold between us and Saul or his family; and it is not in our power to put to death any man in Israel. And he said, Say, then, what am I to do for you?

bbe@2Samuel:23:1 @Now these are the last words of David. David, the son of Jesse, says, the man who was lifted up on high, the man on whom the God of Jacob put the holy oil, the loved one of Israel's songs, says:

bbe@2Samuel:24:11 @And David got up in the morning; now the word of the Lord had come to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,

bbe@2Samuel:24:12 @Go and say to David, The Lord says, Three things are offered to you: say which of them you will have, and I will do it to you.

bbe@2Samuel:24:13 @So Gad came to David, and gave him word of this and said to him, Are there to be three years when there is not enough food in your land? or will you go in flight from your haters for three months, while they go after you? or will you have three days of violent disease in your land? take thought and say what answer I am to give to him who sent me.

bbe@1Kings:1:13 @Come now, go to King David and say to him, Did you not, O my lord, take an oath to me, your servant, saying, Truly Solomon your son will be king after me, seated on the seat of my kingdom? why then is Adonijah acting as king?

bbe@1Kings:1:17 @And she said to him, My lord, you took an oath by the Lord your God and gave your word to your servant, saying, Truly, Solomon your son will be king after me, seated on the seat of my kingdom.

bbe@1Kings:1:47 @And the king's servants came to our lord King David, blessing him and saying, May God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and the seat of his authority greater than your seat; and the king was bent low in worship on his bed.

bbe@1Kings:1:51 @And they gave Solomon word of it, saying, See, Adonijah goes in such fear of King Solomon, that he has put his hands on the horns of the altar, saying, Let King Solomon first give me his oath that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.

bbe@1Kings:2:1 @Now the time of David's death came near; and he gave orders to Solomon his son, saying,

bbe@1Kings:2:8 @Now you have with you Shimei, the son of Gera the Benjamite of Bahurim, who put a bitter curse on me on the day when I went to Mahanaim; but he came down to see me at Jordan, and I gave him my oath by the Lord, saying, I will not put you to death by the sword.

bbe@1Kings:2:14 @Then he said, I have something to say to you. And she said, Say on.

bbe@1Kings:2:16 @Now I have one request to make to you, and do not say, No, to me. And she said to him, Say on.

bbe@1Kings:2:17 @Then he said, Will you go to Solomon the king (for he will not say, No, to you) and put before him my request that he will give me Abishag the Shunammite for a wife?

bbe@1Kings:2:20 @Then she said, I have one small request to make to you; do not say, No, to me. And the king said, Say on, my mother, for I will not say, No, to you.

bbe@1Kings:2:23 @Then King Solomon took an oath by the Lord, saying, May God's punishment be on me if Adonijah does not give payment for these words with his life.

bbe@1Kings:2:29 @And they said to King Solomon, Joab has gone in flight to the Tent of the Lord and is by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, make an attack on him.

bbe@1Kings:2:30 @And Benaiah came to the Tent of the Lord and said to him, The king says, Come out. And he said, No; but let death come to me here. And Benaiah went back to the king and gave him word of the answer which Joab had given.

bbe@1Kings:3:5 @In Gibeon, Solomon had a vision of the Lord in a dream by night; and God said to him, Say what I am to give you.

bbe@1Kings:3:23 @Then the king said, One says, The living child is my son, and yours is the dead: and the other says, Not so; but your son is the dead one and mine is the living.

bbe@1Kings:4:32 @He was the maker of three thousand wise sayings, and of songs to the number of a thousand and five.

bbe@1Kings:4:33 @He made sayings about all plants, from the cedar in Lebanon to the hyssop hanging on the wall; and about all beasts and birds and fishes and the small things of the earth.

bbe@1Kings:5:2 @And Solomon sent back word to Hiram, saying,

bbe@1Kings:5:6 @So now, will you have cedar-trees from Lebanon cut down for me, and my servants will be with your servants; and I will give you payment for your servants at whatever rate you say; for it is common knowledge that we have no such wood-cutters among us as the men of Zidon.

bbe@1Kings:5:8 @Then Hiram sent to Solomon, saying; The words you sent have been given to me: I will do all your desire in the question of cedar-wood and cypress-wood.

bbe@1Kings:5:9 @My men will take them down from Lebanon to the sea, where I will have them corded together to go by sea to whatever place you say, and I will have them cut up there so that you may take them away; as for payment, it will be enough if you give me food for my people.

bbe@1Kings:6:11 @(And the word of the Lord came to Solomon, saying,

bbe@1Kings:9:8 @And this house will become a mass of broken walls, and everyone who goes by will be overcome with wonder at it and make whistling sounds; and they will say, Why has the Lord done so to this land and to this house?

bbe@1Kings:12:10 @And the young men of his generation said to him, This is the answer to give to the people who came to you saying, Your father put a hard yoke on us; will you make it less? say to them, My little finger is thicker than my father's body;

bbe@1Kings:13:3 @The same day he gave them a sign, saying, This is the sign which the Lord has given: See, the altar will be broken and the burned waste on it overturned.

bbe@1Kings:13:4 @Then the king, hearing the man of God crying out against the altar at Beth-el, put out his hand from the altar, saying, Take him prisoner. And his hand, stretched out against him, became dead, and he had no power of pulling it back.

bbe@1Kings:18:26 @So they took the ox which was given them, and made it ready, crying out to Baal from morning till the middle of the day, and saying, O Baal, give ear to us. But there was no voice and no answer. And they were jumping up and down before the altar they had made.

bbe@1Kings:18:27 @And in the middle of the day, Elijah made sport of them, saying, Give louder cries, for he is a god; he may be deep in thought, or he may have gone away for some purpose, or he may be on a journey, or by chance he is sleeping and has to be made awake.

bbe@1Kings:18:44 @And the seventh time he said, I see a cloud coming up out of the sea, as small as a man's hand. Then he said, Go up and say to Ahab, Get your carriage ready and go down or the rain will keep you back.

bbe@1Kings:19:2 @Then Jezebel sent a servant to Elijah, saying, May the gods' punishment be on me if I do not make your life like the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.

bbe@1Kings:19:9 @And there he went into a hole in the rock for the night; then the word of the Lord came to him, saying, What are you doing here, Elijah?

bbe@1Kings:19:13 @And Elijah, hearing it, went out, covering his face with his robe, and took his place in the opening of the hole. And there a voice came to him saying, What are you doing here, Elijah?

bbe@1Kings:20:3 @And they said to him, Ben-hadad says, Your silver and your gold are mine; and your wives and children are mine.

bbe@1Kings:20:4 @And the king of Israel sent him an answer saying, As you say, my lord king, I am yours with all I have.

bbe@1Kings:20:5 @Then the representatives came back again, and said, These are the words of Ben-hadad: I sent to you saying, Give up to me your silver and your gold, your wives and your children;

bbe@1Kings:20:8 @And all the responsible men and the people said to him, Do not give attention to him or do what he says.

bbe@1Kings:20:9 @So he said to the representatives of Ben-hadad, Say to my lord the king, All the orders you sent the first time I will do; but this thing I may not do. And the representatives went back with this answer.

bbe@1Kings:20:10 @Then Ben-hadad sent to him, saying, May the gods' punishment be on me if there is enough of the dust of Samaria for all the people at my feet to take some in their hands.

bbe@1Kings:20:11 @And the king of Israel said in answer, Say to him, The time for loud talk is not when a man is putting on his arms, but when he is taking them off.

bbe@1Kings:20:13 @Then a prophet came up to Ahab, king of Israel, and said, The Lord says, Have you seen all this great army? See, I will give it into your hands today, and you will see that I am the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:20:14 @And Ahab said, By whom? And he said, The Lord says, By the servants of the chiefs who are over the divisions of the land. Then he said, By whom is the fighting to be started? And he made answer, By you.

bbe@1Kings:20:17 @And the servants of the chiefs who were over the divisions of the land went forward first; and when Ben-hadad sent out, they gave him the news, saying, Men have come out from Samaria.

bbe@1Kings:20:28 @And a man of God came up and said to the king of Israel, The Lord says, Because the Aramaeans have said, The Lord is a god of the hills and not of the valleys; I will give all this great army into your hands, and you will see that I am the Lord.

bbe@1Kings:20:32 @So they put on haircloth, and cords on their heads, and came to the king of Israel and said, Your servant Ben-hadad says, Let me now keep my life. And he said, Is he still living? he is my brother.

bbe@1Kings:21:13 @And the two good-for-nothing persons came in and took their seats before him and gave witness against Naboth, in front of the people, saying, Naboth has been cursing God and the king. Then they took him outside the town and had him stoned to death.

bbe@1Kings:22:8 @And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, Micaiah, son of Imlah; but I have no love for him, for he is a prophet of evil to me and not of good. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

bbe@1Kings:22:11 @And Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, made himself horns of iron and said, The Lord says, Pushing back the Aramaeans with these, you will put an end to them completely.

bbe@1Kings:22:12 @And all the prophets said the same thing, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and it will go well for you, for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.

bbe@1Kings:22:13 @Now the servant who had gone to get Micaiah said to him, See now, all the prophets with one voice are saying good things to the king; so let your words be like theirs and say good things.

bbe@1Kings:22:14 @And Micaiah said, By the living Lord, whatever the Lord says to me I will say.

bbe@1Kings:22:16 @Then the king said to him, Have I not, again and again, put you on your oath to say nothing to me but what is true in the name of the Lord?

bbe@1Kings:22:18 @And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not say that he would not be a prophet of good but of evil?

bbe@1Kings:22:24 @Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, came near and gave Micaiah a blow on the side of the face, saying, Where is the spirit of the Lord whose word is in you?

bbe@1Kings:22:27 @And say, It is the king's order that this man is to be put in prison and given prison food till I come again in peace.

bbe@1Kings:22:31 @Now the king of Aram had given orders to the thirty-two captains of his war-carriages, saying, Make no attack on small or great, but only on the king of Israel.

bbe@1Kings:22:36 @And about sundown a cry went up from all parts of the army, saying, Let every man go back to his town and his country, for the king is dead.

bbe@2Kings:1:3 @But the angel of the Lord said to Elijah the Tishbite, Go now, and, meeting the men sent by the king of Samaria, say to them, Is it because there is no God in Israel, that you are going to get directions from Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?

bbe@2Kings:1:6 @And they said to him, On our way we had a meeting with a man who said, Go back to the king who sent you and say to him, The Lord says, Is it because there is no God in Israel that you send to put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? For this reason, you will not come down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you.

bbe@2Kings:1:11 @Then the king sent another captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he said to Elijah, O man of God, the king says, Come down quickly.

bbe@2Kings:2:3 @And at Beth-el the sons of the prophets came out to Elisha and said, Has it been made clear to you that the Lord is going to take away your master from over you today? And he said, Yes, I have knowledge of it: say no more.

bbe@2Kings:2:5 @And at Jericho the sons of the prophets came up to Elisha and said to him, Has it been made clear to you that the Lord is going to take away your master from over you today? And he said in answer, Yes, I have knowledge of it: say no more.

bbe@2Kings:2:9 @And when they had come to the other side, Elijah said to Elisha, Say what you would have me do for you before I am taken from you. And Elisha said, Be pleased to let a special measure of your spirit be on me.

bbe@2Kings:2:18 @And they came back to him, while he was still at Jericho; and he said to them, Did I not say to you, Go not?

bbe@2Kings:2:21 @Then he went out to the spring from which the water came, and put salt in it, and said, The Lord says, Now I have made this water sweet; no longer will it be death-giving or unfertile.

bbe@2Kings:3:7 @And he sent to Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab has got free from my authority: will you go with me to make war on Moab? And he said, I will go with you: I am as you are, my people as your people, and my horses as your horses.

bbe@2Kings:3:16 @And he said, The Lord says, I will make this valley full of water-holes.

bbe@2Kings:3:17 @For the Lord says, Though you see no wind or rain, the valley will be full of water, and you and your armies and your beasts will have drink.

bbe@2Kings:4:2 @Then Elisha said to her, What am I to do for you? say now, what have you in the house? And she said, Your servant has nothing in the house but a pot of oil.

bbe@2Kings:4:13 @And he said to him, Now say to her, See, you have taken all this trouble for us; what is to be done for you? will you have any request made for you to the king or the captain of the army? But she said, I am living among my people.

bbe@2Kings:4:16 @And Elisha said, At this time in the coming year you will have a son in your arms. And she said, No, my lord, O man of God, do not say what is false to your servant.

bbe@2Kings:4:26 @Go quickly to her, and on meeting her say to her, Are you well? and your husband and the child, are they well? And she said in answer, All is well.

bbe@2Kings:4:28 @Then she said, Did I make a request to my lord for a son? did I not say, Do not give me false words?

bbe@2Kings:4:31 @And Gehazi went on before them and put the stick on the child's face; but there was no voice, and no one gave attention. So he went back, and meeting him gave him the news, saying, The child is not awake.

bbe@2Kings:4:43 @But his servant said, How am I to put this before a hundred men? But he said, Give it to the people for food; for the Lord says, There will be food for them and some over.

bbe@2Kings:5:4 @And someone went and said to his lord, This is what the girl from the land of Israel says.

bbe@2Kings:5:8 @Now Elisha, the man of God, hearing that the king of Israel had done this, sent to the king, saying, Why are you troubled? send the man to me, so that he may see that there is a prophet in Israel.

bbe@2Kings:5:10 @And Elisha sent a servant to him, saying, Go to Jordan, and after washing seven times in its waters your flesh will be well again and you will be clean.

bbe@2Kings:5:13 @Then his servants came to him and said, If the prophet had given you orders to do some great thing, would you not have done it? how much more then, when he says to you, Be washed and become clean?

bbe@2Kings:5:22 @And he said, All is well: but my master has sent me, saying, Even now, two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the hill-country of Ephraim; will you give me a talent of silver and two changes of clothing for them?

bbe@2Kings:6:9 @And the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, Take care to keep away from that place, for the Aramaeans are waiting there in secret.

bbe@2Kings:6:12 @And one of them said, Not one of us, my lord king; but Elisha, the prophet in Israel, gives the king of Israel news of the words you say even in your bedroom.

bbe@2Kings:6:17 @Then Elisha made a prayer to the Lord, saying, Lord, let his eyes be open so that he may see. And the Lord made the young man's eyes open; and he saw that all the mountain was full of horses and carriages of fire round Elisha.

bbe@2Kings:6:18 @Now when the Aramaeans came down to Elisha, he made a prayer to the Lord saying, Lord, make this people blind. And he made them blind at Elisha's request.

bbe@2Kings:7:1 @Then Elisha said, Give ear to the word of the Lord: the Lord says, Tomorrow, about this time, a measure of good meal will be offered for the price of a shekel and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the market-place of Samaria.

bbe@2Kings:7:4 @If we say, We will go into the town, there is no food in the town, and we will come to our end there; and if we go on waiting here, death will come to us. Come then, let us give ourselves up to the army of Aram: if they let us go on living, then life will be ours; and if they put us to death, then death will be ours.

bbe@2Kings:7:9 @Then they said to one another, We are not doing right. Today is a day of good news, and we say nothing: if we go on waiting here till the morning, punishment will come to us. So let us go and give the news to those of the king's house.

bbe@2Kings:7:10 @So they came in, and, crying out to the door-keepers of the town, they gave them the news, saying, We came to the tents of the Aramaeans, and there was no one there and no voice of man, only the horses and the asses in their places, and the tents as they were.

bbe@2Kings:7:12 @Then the king got up in the night and said to his servants, This is my idea of what the Aramaeans have done to us. They have knowledge that we are without food; and so they have gone out of their tents, and are waiting secretly in the open country, saying, When they come out of the town, we will take them living and get into the town.

bbe@2Kings:7:14 @So they took two horsemen; and the king sent them after the army of the Aramaeans, saying, Go and see.

bbe@2Kings:8:4 @Now the king was talking with Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, saying, Now, give me an account of all the great things Elisha has done.

bbe@2Kings:8:6 @And in answer to the king's questions, the woman gave him all the story. So the king gave orders to one of his unsexed servants, saying, Give her back all her property, and all the produce of her fields from the day when she went away from the land up till now.

bbe@2Kings:8:8 @Then the king said to Hazael, Take an offering with you, and go to see the man of God and get directions from the Lord by him, saying, Am I going to get better from my disease?

bbe@2Kings:8:9 @So Hazael went to see him, taking with him forty camels with offerings on their backs of every sort of good thing from Damascus; and when he came before him, he said, Your son Ben-hadad, king of Aram, has sent me to you, saying, Will I get better from this disease?

bbe@2Kings:8:10 @And Elisha said to him, Go, say to him, You will certainly get better; but the Lord has made it clear to me that only death is before him.

bbe@2Kings:8:14 @Then he went away from Elisha and came in to his master, who said to him, What did Elisha say to you? And his answer was, He said that you would certainly get well.

bbe@2Kings:9:3 @Then take the bottle and put the oil on his head, and say, The Lord says, I have put the holy oil on you to make you king over Israel. Then, opening the door, go in flight, without waiting.

bbe@2Kings:9:5 @And when he came, he saw the captains of the army seated together; and he said, I have something to say to you, O captain. And Jehu said, To which of us? And he said, To you, O captain.

bbe@2Kings:9:6 @And he got up and went into the house; then he put the holy oil on his head and said to him, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, I have made you king over the people of the Lord, over Israel.

bbe@2Kings:9:12 @And they said, That is not true; now give us his story. Then he said, This is what he said to me: The Lord says, I have made you king over Israel.

bbe@2Kings:9:17 @And the watchman on the tower in Jezreel saw Jehu and his band coming, and said, I see a band of people. And Joram said, Send out a horseman to them, and let him say, Is it peace?

bbe@2Kings:9:18 @So a horseman went out to them and said, The king says, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What have you to do with peace? come after me. And the watchman gave them word, saying, The horseman went up to them, but has not come back.

bbe@2Kings:9:19 @Then he sent out a second horseman, who came up to them and said, The king says, Is it peace? And Jehu said in answer, What have you to do with peace? come after me.

bbe@2Kings:9:20 @And the watchman gave them word, saying, He went up to them and has not come back again; and the driving is like the driving of Jehu, son of Nimshi, for he is driving violently

bbe@2Kings:9:25 @Then Jehu said to Bidkar, his captain, Take him up, and put him in the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for is not that day in your memory when you and I together on our horses were going after Ahab, his father, and the Lord put this fate on him, saying:

bbe@2Kings:9:26 @I saw the blood of Naboth and of his sons yesterday; and I will give you full payment in this field, says the Lord? So now, take him and put him in this field, as the Lord said.

bbe@2Kings:9:36 @So they came back and gave him word of it. And he said, This is what the Lord said by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the heritage of Jezreel the flesh of Jezebel will become food for dogs;

bbe@2Kings:9:37 @And the dead body of Jezebel will be like waste dropped on the face of the earth in the heritage of Jezreel; so that they will not be able to say, This is Jezebel.

bbe@2Kings:10:1 @Now there were in Samaria seventy of Ahab's sons. And Jehu sent letters to Samaria, to the rulers of the town, and to the responsible men, and to those who had the care of the sons of Ahab, saying,

bbe@2Kings:10:5 @So the controller of the king's house, with the ruler of the town, and the responsible men, and those who had the care of Ahab's sons, sent to Jehu, saying, We are your servants and will do all your orders; we will not make any man king; do whatever seems best to you.

bbe@2Kings:10:6 @Then he sent them a second letter, saying, If you are on my side, and if you will do my orders, come to me at Jezreel by this time tomorrow, with the heads of your master's sons. Now the king's seventy sons were with the great men of the town, who had the care of them.

bbe@2Kings:11:5 @And he gave them orders, saying, This is what you are to do: the third part of you, who come in on the Sabbath and keep the watch of the king's house,

bbe@2Kings:11:14 @And looking, she saw the king in his regular place by the pillar, and the captains and the horns near him; and all the people of the land giving signs of joy and sounding the horns. Then Athaliah, violently parting her robes, gave a cry, saying, Broken faith, broken faith!

bbe@2Kings:11:15 @Then Jehoiada the priest gave orders to those who were placed in authority over the army, saying, Take her outside the lines, and let anyone who goes after her be put to death with the sword, for he said, Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:14:6 @But he did not put their children to death; for the orders of the Lord recorded in the book of the law of Moses say, The fathers are not to be put to death for the children, or the children for their fathers; but a man is to be put to death for the sin which he himself has done.

bbe@2Kings:14:8 @Then Amaziah sent representatives to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us have a meeting face to face.

bbe@2Kings:14:9 @And Jehoash, king of Israel, sent to Amaziah, king of Judah, saying, The thorn-tree in Lebanon sent to the cedar in Lebanon, saying, Give your daughter to my son for a wife: and a beast from the woodland in Lebanon went by, crushing the thorn under his feet.

bbe@2Kings:16:7 @So Ahaz sent representatives to Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, saying, I am your servant and your son; come to my help against the kings of Aram and Israel who have taken up arms against me.

bbe@2Kings:16:15 @And King Ahaz gave orders to Urijah the priest, saying, Make the morning burned offering and the evening meal offering and the king's burned offering and meal offering, with the burned offerings of all the people and their meal offerings and drink offerings, on the great altar, and put on it all the blood of the burned offerings and of the beasts which are offered; but the brass altar will be for my use to get directions from the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:17:13 @And he gave witness to Israel and Judah, by every prophet and seer, saying, Come back from your evil ways, and do my orders and keep my rules, and be guided by the law which I gave to your fathers and sent to you by my servants the prophets.

bbe@2Kings:17:27 @Then the king of Assyria gave orders, saying, Send there one of the priests whom you took away, and let him be living there and teaching the people the way of the god of the land.

bbe@2Kings:17:35 @And the Lord made an agreement with them and gave them orders, saying, You are to have no other gods; you are not to give worship to them or be their servants or make them offerings:

bbe@2Kings:18:14 @And Hezekiah, king of Judah, sent to Lachish, to the king of Assyria, saying, I have done wrong; give up attacking me, and whatever you put on me I will undergo. And the payment he was to make was fixed by the king of Assyria at three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.

bbe@2Kings:18:19 @And the Rab-shakeh said to them, Say now to Hezekiah, These are the words of the great king, the king of Assyria: In what are you placing your hope?

bbe@2Kings:18:20 @You say you have a design, and strength for war, but these are only words. Now to whom are you looking for support, that you have gone against my authority?

bbe@2Kings:18:22 @And if you say to me, Our hope is in the Lord our God: is it not he, whose high places and altars Hezekiah has taken away, saying to Judah and Jerusalem that worship may only be given before this altar in Jerusalem?

bbe@2Kings:18:27 @But the Rab-shakeh said to them, Is it to your master or to you that my master has sent me to say these words? has he not sent me to the men seated on the wall? for they are the people who will be short of food with you when the town is shut in.

bbe@2Kings:18:29 @This is what the king says: Do not be tricked by Hezekiah, for there is no salvation for you in him.

bbe@2Kings:18:30 @And do not let Hezekiah make you put your faith in the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly keep us safe, and this town will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria.

bbe@2Kings:18:31 @Do not give ear to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me; and everyone will be free to take the fruit of his vine and of his fig-tree, and the water of his spring;

bbe@2Kings:18:32 @Till I come and take you away to a land like yours, a land of grain and wine, a land of bread and vine-gardens, a land of oil-giving olives and of honey, so that life and not death may be your fate. Give no attention to Hezekiah when he says to you, The Lord will keep us safe.

bbe@2Kings:19:3 @And they said to him, Hezekiah says, This day is a day of trouble and punishment and shame; for the children are ready to come to birth, but there is no strength to give birth to them.

bbe@2Kings:19:4 @It may be that the Lord your God will give ear to the words of the Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria, his master, sent to say evil things against the living God, and will make his words come to nothing: so then make your prayer for the rest of the people.

bbe@2Kings:19:6 @And Isaiah said to them, This is what you are to say to your master: The Lord says, Be not troubled by the words which the servants of the king of Assyria have said against me in your hearing.

bbe@2Kings:19:9 @And when news came to him that Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia, had made an attack on him, he sent representatives to Hezekiah again, saying,

bbe@2Kings:19:10 @This is what you are to say to Hezekiah, king of Judah: Let not your God, in whom is your faith, give you a false hope, saying, Jerusalem will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria

bbe@2Kings:19:15 @And Hezekiah made his prayer to the Lord, saying, O Lord, the God of Israel, seated between the winged ones, you only are the God of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth.

bbe@2Kings:19:16 @Let your ear be turned to us, O Lord, and let your eyes be open, O Lord, and see; take note of all the words of Sennacherib who has sent men to say evil against the living God.

bbe@2Kings:19:20 @Then Isaiah, the son of Amoz, sent to Hezekiah, saying, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, The prayer which you have made to me against Sennacherib, king of Assyria, has come to my ears.

bbe@2Kings:19:32 @For this cause the Lord says about the king of Assyria, He will not come into this town, or send an arrow against it; he will not come before it with arms, or put up an earthwork against it;

bbe@2Kings:19:33 @By the way he came he will go back, and he will not get into this town, says the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:20:1 @In those days Hezekiah was ill and near death. And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him, and said to him, The Lord says, Put your house in order, for your death is near.

bbe@2Kings:20:2 @Then, turning his face to the wall, he made his prayer to the Lord, saying,

bbe@2Kings:20:4 @Now before Isaiah had gone out of the middle of the town, the word of the Lord came to him, saying,

bbe@2Kings:20:5 @Go back and say to Hezekiah, the ruler of my people, The Lord, the God of David your father, says, Your prayer has come to my ears, and I have seen your weeping; see, I will make you well: on the third day you will go up to the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:20:14 @Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, What did these men say and where did they come from? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country, even from Babylon.

bbe@2Kings:20:17 @Truly, days are coming when everything in your house, and whatever your fathers have put in store till this day, will be taken away to Babylon: all will be gone, says the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:21:12 @For this cause, says the Lord, the God of Israel, I will send such evil on Jerusalem and Judah that the ears of all to whom the news comes will be burning.

bbe@2Kings:22:3 @Now in the eighteenth year after he became king, Josiah sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the Lord, saying to him,

bbe@2Kings:22:9 @Then, after reading it, Shaphan the scribe went in to the king and gave him an account of what had been done, saying, Your servants have given out the money which was in the house, and have given it to the overseers of the work of the house of the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:22:12 @And he gave orders to Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, and Achbor, the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king's servant, saying,

bbe@2Kings:22:18 @But to the king of Judah who sent you to get directions from the Lord, say, This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said: As to the words which have come to your ears,

bbe@2Kings:22:19 @Because your heart was soft, and you made yourself low before me, when you had word of what I said against this place and its people, that they would become a waste and a curse, and you gave signs of grief, weeping before me: truly, I have given ear to you, says the Lord.

bbe@2Kings:23:21 @And the king gave orders to all the people, saying, Keep the Passover to the Lord your God, as it says in this book of the law.

bbe@2Kings:23:25 @Never before had there been a king like him, turning to the Lord with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his power, as the law of Moses says; and after him there was no king like him.

bbe@2Kings:25:24 @Then Gedaliah gave his oath to them and their men, saying, Have no fear because of the servants of the Chaldaeans; go on living in the land under the rule of the king of Babylon, and all will be well.

bbe@1Chronicles:4:9 @And Jabez was honoured more than his brothers; but his mother had given him the name Jabez, saying, Because I gave birth to him with sorrow.

bbe@1Chronicles:4:10 @And Jabez made a prayer to the God of Israel, saying, If only you would truly give me a blessing, and make wider the limits of my land, and let your hand be with me, and keep me from evil, so that I may not be troubled by it! And God gave him his desire

bbe@1Chronicles:11:19 @Saying, By my God, far be it from me to do this! How may I take as drink the life-blood of these men who have put their lives in danger? so he did not take it. These things did the three great men of war.

bbe@1Chronicles:12:19 @And some of the men of Manasseh came over to David, when he went with the Philistines to the war against Saul, but he gave them no help: for the lords of the Philistines, after discussion, sent him away, saying, He will go back to his master Saul, at the price of our lives.

bbe@1Chronicles:17:7 @So now, say to my servant David, The Lord of armies says, I took you from the fields, from keeping sheep, so that you might be a ruler over my people Israel;

bbe@1Chronicles:17:18 @What more may David say to you? for you have knowledge of your servant.

bbe@1Chronicles:17:24 @So let your words be made certain and your name be made great, when men say, The Lord of armies is the God of Israel; and when the family of David your servant is made strong before you.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:9 @Then the word of the Lord came to Gad, David's seer, saying,

bbe@1Chronicles:21:10 @Go and say to David, The Lord says, Three things are offered to you: say which of them you will have, so that I may do it to you.

bbe@1Chronicles:21:11 @So Gad came to David and said to him, The Lord says, Take whichever you will:

bbe@1Chronicles:21:18 @Then the angel of the Lord gave orders to Gad to say to David that he was to go and put up an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

bbe@1Chronicles:22:8 @But the word of the Lord came to me saying, You have taken lives without number and made great wars; I will not let you be the builder of a house for my name, because of the lives you have taken on the earth before my eyes.

bbe@Esther:1:18 @And the wives of the captains of Persia and Media, hearing what the queen has done, will say the same to all the king's captains. So there will be much shame and wrath.

bbe@Esther:1:22 @And sent letters to all the divisions of the kingdom, to every division in the writing commonly used there, and to every people in the language which was theirs, saying that every man was to be the ruler in his house, and that this order was to be given out in the language of his people.

bbe@Esther:4:8 @And he gave him the copy of the order which had been given out in Shushan for their destruction, ordering him to let Esther see it, and to make it clear to her; and to say to her that she was to go in to the king, requesting his mercy, and making prayer for her people.

bbe@Esther:4:10 @Then Esther sent Hathach to say to Mordecai:

bbe@Esther:4:14 @If at this time you say nothing, then help and salvation will come to the Jews from some other place, but you and your father's family will come to destruction: and who is to say that you have not come to the kingdom even for such a time as this?

bbe@Esther:10:3 @For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and respected by the body of his countrymen; working for the good of his people, and saying words of peace to all his seed.

bbe@Job:1:22 @In all this Job did no sin, and did not say that God's acts were foolish.

bbe@Job:2:9 @And his wife said to him, Are you still keeping your righteousness? Say a curse against God, and put an end to yourself.

bbe@Job:4:2 @If one says a word, will it be a weariness to you? but who is able to keep from saying what is in his mind?

bbe@Job:4:16 @Something was present before me, but I was not able to see it clearly; there was a form before my eyes: a quiet voice came to my ears, saying:

bbe@Job:6:22 @Did I say, Give me something? or, Make a payment for me out of your wealth?

bbe@Job:6:28 @Now then, let your eyes be turned to me, for truly I will not say what is false to your face.

bbe@Job:7:4 @When I go to my bed, I say, When will it be time to get up? but the night is long, and I am turning from side to side till morning light.

bbe@Job:7:13 @When I say, In my bed I will have comfort, there I will get rest from my disease;

bbe@Job:8:2 @How long will you say these things, and how long will the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?

bbe@Job:8:10 @Will they not give you teaching, and say words of wisdom to you?

bbe@Job:8:18 @If he is taken away from his place, then it will say, I have not seen you

bbe@Job:9:12 @If he puts out his hand to take, by whom may it be turned back? who may say to him, What are you doing?

bbe@Job:9:19 @If it is a question of strength, he says, Here I am! and if it is a question of a cause at law, he says, Who will give me a fixed day?

bbe@Job:9:20 @Though I was in the right, he would say that I was in the wrong; I have done no evil; but he says that I am a sinner

bbe@Job:9:22 @It is all the same to me; so I say, He puts an end to the sinner and to him who has done no wrong together.

bbe@Job:9:27 @If I say, I will put my grief out of mind, I will let my face be sad no longer and I will be bright;

bbe@Job:9:35 @Then I would say what is in my mind without fear of him; for there is no cause of fear in myself.

bbe@Job:10:2 @I will say to God, Do not put me down as a sinner; make clear to me what you have against me.

bbe@Job:11:4 @You may say, My way is clean, and I am free from sin in your eyes.

bbe@Job:13:7 @Will you say in God's name what is not right, and put false words into his mouth?

bbe@Job:13:12 @Your wise sayings are only dust, and your strong places are only earth.

bbe@Job:13:13 @Keep quiet, and let me say what is in my mind, whatever may come to me.

bbe@Job:13:17 @Give ear with care to my words, and keep what I say in your minds.

bbe@Job:15:3 @Will he make arguments with words in which is no profit, and with sayings which have no value?

bbe@Job:15:17 @Take note and give ear to my words; and I will say what I have seen:

bbe@Job:15:23 @He is wandering about in search of bread, saying, Where is it? and he is certain that the day of trouble is ready for him:

bbe@Job:16:4 @It would not be hard for me to say such things if your souls were in my soul's place; joining words together against you, and shaking my head at you:

bbe@Job:16:6 @If I say what is in my mind, my pain becomes no less: and if I keep quiet, how much of it goes from me?

bbe@Job:17:12 @They are changing night into day; they say, The light is near the dark.

bbe@Job:17:14 @If I say to the earth, You are my father; and to the worm, My mother and my sister;

bbe@Job:18:2 @How long will it be before you have done talking? Get wisdom, and then we will say what is in our minds.

bbe@Job:19:22 @Why are you cruel to me, like God, for ever saying evil against me?

bbe@Job:19:28 @If you say, How cruel we will be to him! because the root of sin is clearly in him:

bbe@Job:20:7 @Like the waste from his body he comes to an end for ever: those who have seen him say, Where is he?

bbe@Job:21:3 @Let me say what is in my mind, and after that, go on making sport of me.

bbe@Job:21:19 @You say, God keeps punishment stored up for his children. Let him send it on the man himself, so that he may have the punishment of it!

bbe@Job:21:28 @For you say, Where is the house of the ruler, and where is the tent of the evil-doer?

bbe@Job:22:13 @And you say, What knowledge has God? is he able to give decisions through the deep dark?

bbe@Job:22:20 @Saying, Truly, their substance is cut off, and their wealth is food for the fire.

bbe@Job:23:5 @I would see what his answers would be, and have knowledge of what he would say to me.

bbe@Job:24:15 @And the man whose desire is for the wife of another is waiting for the evening, saying, No eye will see me; and he puts a cover on his face. And in the night the thief goes about;

bbe@Job:24:25 @And if it is not so, now, who will make it clear that my words are false, and that what I say is of no value?

bbe@Job:27:4 @Truly, there is no deceit in my lips, and my tongue does not say what is false.

bbe@Job:27:5 @Let it be far from me! I will certainly not say that you are right! I will come to death before I give up my righteousness.

bbe@Job:27:6 @I will keep it safe, and will not let it go: my heart has nothing to say against any part of my life.

bbe@Job:28:14 @The deep waters say, It is not in me: and the sea says, It is not with me.

bbe@Job:28:18 @There is no need to say anything about coral or crystal; and the value of wisdom is greater than that of pearls.

bbe@Job:28:22 @Destruction and Death say, We have only had word of it with our ears.

bbe@Job:31:31 @If the men of my tent did not say, Who has not had full measure of his meat?

bbe@Job:32:7 @I said to myself, It is right for the old to say what is in their minds, and for those who are far on in years to give out wisdom.

bbe@Job:32:10 @So I say, Give ear to me, and I will put forward my knowledge.

bbe@Job:32:11 @I was waiting for your words, I was giving ear to your wise sayings; while you were searching out what to say,

bbe@Job:32:13 @Take care that you do not say, Wisdom is here; God may overcome him, but not man.

bbe@Job:32:14 @I will not put forward words like these, or make use of your sayings in answer to him.

bbe@Job:32:16 @And am I to go on waiting while they have nothing to say? while they keep quiet and give no more answers?

bbe@Job:32:20 @Let me say what is in my mind, so that I may get comfort; let me give answer with open mouth.

bbe@Job:33:1 @And now, O Job, give ear to my words, and take note of all I say.

bbe@Job:33:3 @My heart is overflowing with knowledge, my lips say what is true.

bbe@Job:33:12 @Truly, in saying this you are wrong; for God is greater than man.

bbe@Job:33:13 @Why do you put forward your cause against him, saying, He gives no answer to any of my words?

bbe@Job:33:24 @And if he has mercy on him, and says, Let him not go down to the underworld, I have given the price for his life:

bbe@Job:33:27 @He makes a song, saying, I did wrong, turning from the straight way, but he did not give me the reward of my sin.

bbe@Job:33:31 @Take note O Job, give ear to me; keep quiet, while I say what is in my mind.

bbe@Job:33:32 @If you have anything to say, give me an answer; for it is my desire that you may be judged free from sin.

bbe@Job:34:17 @How may a hater of right be a ruler? and will you say that the upright Ruler of all is evil?

bbe@Job:34:18 @He who says to a king, You are an evil-doer; and to rulers, You are sinners;

bbe@Job:34:34 @Men of knowledge, and all wise men, hearing me, will say,

bbe@Job:35:2 @Does it seem to you to be right, and righteousness before God, to say,

bbe@Job:35:14 @How much less when you say that you do not see him; that the cause is before him, and you are waiting for him.

bbe@Job:36:1 @And Elihu went on to say,

bbe@Job:36:2 @Give me a little more time, and I will make it clear to you; for I have still something to say for God.

bbe@Job:37:6 @For he says to the snow, Make the earth wet; and to the rain-storm, Come down.

bbe@Job:37:19 @Make clear to me what we are to say to him; we are unable to put our cause before him, because of the dark.

bbe@Job:37:20 @How may he have knowledge of my desire for talk with him? or did any man ever say, May destruction come on me?

bbe@Job:38:4 @Where were you when I put the earth on its base? Say, if you have knowledge.

bbe@Job:38:5 @By whom were its measures fixed? Say, if you have wisdom; or by whom was the line stretched out over it?

bbe@Job:38:18 @Have you taken note of the wide limits of the earth? Say, if you have knowledge of it all.

bbe@Job:38:35 @Do you send out the thunder-flames, so that they may go, and say to you, Here we are?

bbe@Job:39:25 @When it comes to his ears he says, Aha! He is smelling the fight from far off, and hearing the thunder of the captains, and the war-cries.

bbe@Job:40:7 @Will you even make my right of no value? will you say that I am wrong in order to make clear that you are right?

bbe@Job:40:13 @Then I will give praise to you, saying that your right hand is able to give you salvation.

bbe@Job:41:3 @Will he make prayers to you, or say soft words to you?

bbe@Job:42:4 @Give ear to me, and I will say what is in my mind; I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.

bbe@Psalms:2:2 @The kings of the earth have taken their place, and the rulers are fixed in their purpose, against the Lord, and against the king of his selection, saying,

bbe@Psalms:3:2 @Unnumbered are those who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah.)

bbe@Psalms:4:6 @There are numbers who say, Who will do us any good? the light of his face has gone from us.

bbe@Psalms:10:3 @For the evil-doer is lifted up because of the purpose of his heart, and he whose mind is fixed on wealth is turned away from the Lord, saying evil against him.

bbe@Psalms:10:4 @The evil-doer in his pride says, God will not make a search. All his thoughts are, There is no God.

bbe@Psalms:10:11 @He says in his heart, God has no memory of me: his face is turned away; he will never see it.

bbe@Isaiah:43:10 @You are my witnesses, says the Lord, and my servant whom I have taken for myself: so that you may see and have faith in me, and that it may be clear to you that I am he; before me there was no God formed, and there will not be after me.

bbe@Isaiah:43:12 @I gave the word, and made it clear, and there was no strange god among you: for this reason you are my witnesses, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:43:14 @The Lord, who has taken up your cause, the Holy One of Israel, says, Because of you I have sent to Babylon, and made all their seers come south, and the Chaldaeans whose cry is in the ships.

bbe@Isaiah:44:2 @The Lord who made you, forming you in your mother's body, the Lord, your helper, says, Have no fear, O Jacob my servant, and you, Jeshurun, whom I have taken for myself.

bbe@Isaiah:44:5 @One will say, I am the Lord's; and another will give himself the name, Jacob; another will put a mark on his hand, I am the Lord's, and another will take the name of Israel for himself.

bbe@Isaiah:44:6 @The Lord, the King of Israel, even the Lord of armies who has taken up his cause, says, I am the first and the last, and there is no God but me.

bbe@Isaiah:44:7 @If there is one like me, let him come forward and say it, let him make it clear and put it in order before me: who has made clear in the past the things to come? let him make clear the future to me.

bbe@Isaiah:44:16 @With part of it he makes a fire, and on the fire he gets meat cooked and takes a full meal: he makes himself warm, and says, Aha! I am warm, I have seen the fire:

bbe@Isaiah:44:17 @And the rest of it he makes into a god, even his pictured image: he goes down on his face before it, giving worship to it, and making prayer to it, saying, Be my saviour; for you are my god.

bbe@Isaiah:44:19 @And no one takes note, no one has enough knowledge or wisdom to say, I have put part of it in the fire, and made bread on it; I have had a meal of the flesh cooked with it: and am I now to make the rest of it into a false god? am I to go down on my face before a bit of wood?

bbe@Isaiah:44:20 @As for him whose food is the dust of a dead fire, he has been turned from the way by a twisted mind, so that he is unable to keep himself safe by saying, What I have here in my hand is false.

bbe@Isaiah:44:24 @The Lord, who has taken up your cause, and who gave you life in your mother's body, says, I am the Lord who makes all things; stretching out the heavens by myself, and giving the earth its limits; who was with me?

bbe@Isaiah:45:1 @The Lord says to the man of his selection, to Cyrus, whom I have taken by the right hand, putting down nations before him, and taking away the arms of kings; making the doors open before him, so that the ways into the towns may not be shut;

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

bbe@Isaiah:45:10 @Cursed is he who says to a father, To what are you giving life? or to a woman, What are you in birth-pains with?

bbe@Isaiah:45:11 @The Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, says, Will you put a question to me about the things which are to come, or will you give me orders about my sons, and the work of my hands?

bbe@Isaiah:45:13 @I have sent him out to overcome the nations, and I will make all his ways straight: I will give him the work of building my town, and he will let my prisoners go free, without price or reward, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Isaiah:45:14 @The Lord says, The workmen of Egypt, and the traders of Ethiopia, and the tall Sabaeans, will come over the sea to you, and they will be yours; they will go after you; in chains they will come over: and they will go down on their faces before you, and will make prayer to you, saying, Truly, God is among you; and there is no other God.

bbe@Isaiah:45:19 @I have not given my word in secret, in a place in the underworld; I did not say to the seed of Jacob, Go into a waste land to make request of me: I the Lord say what is true, my word is righteousness.

bbe@Isaiah:46:10 @Making clear from the first what is to come, and from past times the things which have not so far come about; saying, My purpose is fixed, and I will do all my pleasure;

bbe@Isaiah:47:4 @Says the Lord who takes up our cause; the Lord of armies is his name, the Holy One of Israel.

bbe@Isaiah:47:8 @So now take note of this, you who are given up to pleasure, living without fear of evil, saying in your heart, I am, and there is no one like me; I will never be a widow, or have my children taken from me.

bbe@Isaiah:47:13 @But your mind is troubled by the number of your guides: let them now come forward for your salvation: the measurers of the heavens, the watchers of the stars, and those who are able to say from month to month what things are coming on you.

bbe@Isaiah:48:2 @For they say that they are of the holy town, and put their faith in the God of Israel: the Lord of armies is his name.

bbe@Isaiah:48:5 @For this reason I made it clear to you in the past, before it came I gave you word of it: for fear that you might say, My god did these things, and my pictured and metal images made them come about.

bbe@Isaiah:48:7 @They have only now been effected, and not in the past: and before this day they had not come to your ears; for fear that you might say, I had knowledge of them.

bbe@Isaiah:48:17 @The Lord who takes up your cause, the Holy One of Israel, says, I am the Lord your God, who is teaching you for your profit, guiding you by the way in which you are to go.

bbe@Isaiah:48:20 @Go out of Babylon, go in flight from the Chaldaeans; with the sound of song make it clear, give the news, let the word go out even to the end of the earth: say, The Lord has taken up the cause of his servant Jacob.

bbe@Isaiah:48:22 @There is no peace, says the Lord, for the evil-doers.

bbe@Isaiah:49:5 @And now, says the Lord, who made me his servant when I was still in my mother's body, so that I might make Jacob come back to him, and so that Israel might come together to him: and I was honoured in the eyes of the Lord, and my God became my strength.

bbe@Isaiah:49:7 @The Lord who takes up Israel's cause, even his Holy One, says to him whom men make sport of, who is hated by the nations, a servant of rulers: Kings will see and get up from their places, and chiefs will give worship: because of the Lord who keeps faith; even the Holy One of Israel who has taken you for himself.

bbe@Isaiah:49:9 @Saying to those who are in chains, Go free; to those who are in the dark, Come out into the light. They will get food by the way wherever they go, and have grass-lands on all the dry mountain-tops.

bbe@Isaiah:49:18 @Let your eyes be lifted up round about, and see: they are all coming together to you. By my life, says the Lord, truly you will put them all on you as an ornament, and be clothed with them like a bride.

bbe@Isaiah:49:20 @The children to whom you gave birth in other lands will say in your ears, The place is not wide enough for me: make room for me to have a resting-place.

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

bbe@Isaiah:51:16 @And I have put my words in your mouth, covering you with the shade of my hand, stretching out the heavens, and placing the earth on its base, and saying to Zion, You are my people.

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

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

bbe@Isaiah:52:5 @Now then, what have I here? says the Lord, for my people are taken away without cause; they are made waste and give cries of sorrow, says the Lord, and all the day the nations put shame on my name.

bbe@Isaiah:52:7 @How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who comes with good news, who gives word of peace, saying that salvation is near; who says to Zion, Your God is ruling!

bbe@Isaiah:54:1 @Let your voice be loud in song, O woman without children; make melody and sounds of joy, you who did not give birth: for the children of her who had no husband are more than those of the married wife, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:54:8 @In overflowing wrath my face was veiled from you for a minute, but I will have pity on you for ever, says the Lord who takes up your cause.

bbe@Isaiah:54:9 @For this is like the days of Noah to me: for as I took an oath that the waters of Noah would never again go over the earth, so have I taken an oath that I will not again be angry with you, or say bitter words to you.

bbe@Isaiah:54:10 @For the mountains may be taken away, and the hills be moved out of their places, but my love will not be taken from you, or my agreement of peace broken, says the Lord, who has had mercy on you.

bbe@Isaiah:54:17 @No instrument of war which is formed against you will be of any use; and every tongue which says evil against you will be judged false. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness comes from me, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:55:8 @For my thoughts are not your thoughts, or your ways my ways, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:56:1 @The Lord says, Let your way of life be upright, and let your behaviour be rightly ordered: for my salvation is near, and my righteousness will quickly be seen.

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

bbe@Isaiah:56:4 @For the Lord says, As for the unsexed who keep my Sabbaths, and give their hearts to pleasing me, and keep their agreement with me:

bbe@Isaiah:56:8 @The Lord God, who gets together the wandering ones of Israel, says, I will get together others in addition to those of Israel who have come back.

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

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

bbe@Isaiah:57:14 @And I will say, Make it high, make it high, get ready the way, take the stones out of the way of my people.

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

bbe@Isaiah:57:21 @There is no peace, says my God, for the evil-doers.

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

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

bbe@Isaiah:58:13 @If you keep the Sabbath with care, not doing your business on my holy day; and if the Sabbath seems to you a delight, and the new moon of the Lord a thing to be honoured; and if you give respect to him by not doing your business, or going after your pleasure, or saying unholy words;

bbe@Isaiah:59:20 @And as a saviour he will come to Zion, turning away sin from Jacob, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:59:21 @And as for me, this is my agreement with them, says the Lord: my spirit which is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, will not go away from your mouth, or from the mouth of your seed, or from the mouth of your seed's seed, says the Lord, from now and for ever.

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

bbe@Isaiah:62:11 @The Lord has sent out word to the end of the earth, Say to the daughter of Zion, See, your saviour comes; those whom he has made free are with him, and those to whom he has given salvation go before him.

bbe@Isaiah:65:5 @Who say, Keep away, do not come near me, for fear that I make you holy: these are a smoke in my nose, a fire burning all day.

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

bbe@Isaiah:65:8 @This is the word of the Lord: As the new wine is seen in the grapes, and they say, Do not send destruction on it, for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants, in order that I may not put an end to them all.

bbe@Isaiah:65:13 @For this cause says the Lord God, My servants will have food, but you will be in need of food: my servants will have drink, but you will be dry: my servants will have joy, but you will be shamed:

bbe@Isaiah:65:25 @The wolf and the lamb will take their food together, and the lion will make a meal of grass like the ox: but dust will be the snake's food. There will be no cause of pain or destruction in all my holy mountain, says the Lord.

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

bbe@Isaiah:66:2 @For all these things my hand has made, and they are mine, says the Lord; but to this man only will I give attention, to him who is poor and broken in spirit, fearing my word.

bbe@Isaiah:66:9 @Will I by whom the birth was started, not make it complete? says the Lord. Will I who make children come to birth, let them be kept back? says your God.

bbe@Isaiah:66:12 @For the Lord says, See, I will make her peace like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream, and she will take her children in her arms, gently caring for them on her knees.

bbe@Isaiah:66:17 @As for those who keep themselves separate, and make themselves clean in the gardens, going after one in the middle, taking pig's flesh for food, and other disgusting things, such as the mouse: their works and their thoughts will come to an end together, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:66:20 @And they will take your countrymen out of all the nations for an offering to the Lord, on horses, and in carriages, and in carts, and on asses, and on camels, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says the Lord, as the children of Israel take their offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:66:21 @And some of them will I take for priests and Levites, says the Lord.

bbe@Isaiah:66:22 @For as the new heaven and the new earth which I will make will be for ever before me, says the Lord, so will your seed and your name be for ever.

bbe@Isaiah:66:23 @And it will be, that from new moon to new moon, and from Sabbath to Sabbath, all flesh will come to give worship before me, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:4 @Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:1:7 @But the Lord said to me, Do not say, I am a child: for wherever I send you, you are to go, and whatever I give you orders to say, you are to say.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:8 @Have no fear because of them: for I am with you, to keep you safe, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:11 @Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Jeremiah, what do you see? And I said, I see a branch of an almond-tree.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:13 @And the word of the Lord came to me a second time, saying, What do you see? And I said, I see a boiling pot, and its face is from the north.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:15 @For see, I will send for all the families of the kingdoms of the north, says the Lord; and they will come, everyone placing his high seat at the way into Jerusalem, and against its walls on every side, and against all the towns of Judah.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:17 @So make yourself ready, and go and say to them everything I give you orders to say: do not be overcome by fear of them, or I will send fear on you before them.

bbe@Jeremiah:1:19 @They will be fighting against you, but they will not overcome you: for I am with you, says the Lord, to give you salvation.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

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

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

bbe@Jeremiah:2:9 @For this reason, I will again put forward my cause against you, says the Lord, even against you and against your children's children.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:12 @Be full of wonder, O heavens, at this; be overcome with fear, be completely waste, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:19 @The evil you yourselves have done will be your punishment, your errors will be your judge: be certain then, and see that it is an evil and a bitter thing to give up the Lord your God, and no longer to be moved by fear of me, says the Lord, the Lord of armies.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:22 @For even if you are washed with soda and take much soap, still your evil-doing is marked before me, says the Lord God.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:23 @How are you able to say, I am not unclean, I have not gone after the Baals? see your way in the valley, be clear about what you have done: you are a quick-footed camel twisting her way in and out;

bbe@Jeremiah:2:27 @Who say to a tree, You are my father; and to a stone, You have given me life: for their backs have been turned to me, not their faces: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Up! and be our saviour.

bbe@Jeremiah:2:29 @Why will you put forward your cause against me? You have all done evil against me, says the Lord.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:2:35 @And still you said, I have done no wrong; truly, his wrath is turned away from me. See, I will take up the cause against you, because you say, I have done no wrong.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:1 @They say, If a man puts away his wife and she goes from him and becomes another man's, will he go back to her again? will not that land have been made unclean? but though you have been acting like a loose woman with a number of lovers, will you now come back to me? says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:10 @But for all this, her false sister Judah has not come back to me with all her heart, but with deceit, says the Lord

bbe@Jeremiah:3:12 @Go, and give out these words to the north, and say, Come back, O Israel, though you have been turned away from me, says the Lord; my face will not be against you in wrath: for I am full of mercy, says the Lord, I will not be angry for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:13 @Only be conscious of your sin, the evil you have done against the Lord your God; you have gone with strange men under every branching tree, giving no attention to my voice, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:14 @Come back, O children who are turned away, says the Lord; for I am a husband to you, and I will take you, one from a town and two from a family, and will make you come to Zion;

bbe@Jeremiah:3:16 @And it will come about, when your numbers are increased in the land, in those days, says the Lord, that they will no longer say, The ark of the agreement of the Lord: it will not come into their minds, they will not have any memory of it, or be conscious of the loss of it, and it will not be made again.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:19 @But I said, How am I to put you among the children, and give you a desired land, a heritage of glory among the armies of the nations? and I said, You are to say to me, My father; and not be turned away from me.

bbe@Jeremiah:3:20 @Truly, as a wife is false to her husband, so have you been false to me, O Israel, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:1 @If you will come back, O Israel, says the Lord, you will come back to me: and if you will put away your disgusting ways, you will not be sent away from before me.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:3 @For this is what the Lord says to the men of Judah and to Jerusalem: Get your unworked land ploughed up, do not put in your seeds among thorns.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:5 @Say openly in Judah, give it out in Jerusalem, and say, Let the horn be sounded in the land: crying out in a loud voice, Come together, and let us go into the walled towns.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:9 @And it will come about in that day, says the Lord, that the heart of the king will be dead in him, and the hearts of the rulers; and the priests will be overcome with fear, and the prophets with wonder.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:17 @Like keepers of a field they are against her on every side; because she has been fighting against me, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:4:31 @A voice has come to my ears like the voice of a woman in birth-pains, the pain of one giving birth to her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, fighting for breath, stretching out her hands, saying, Now sorrow is mine! for my strength is gone from me before the takers of life.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:2 @And though they say, By the living Lord; truly their oaths are false.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:9 @Am I not to give punishment for these things? says the Lord: will not my soul take payment from such a nation as this?

bbe@Jeremiah:5:11 @For the people of Israel and the people of Judah have been very false to me, says the Lord.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:5:15 @See, I will send you a nation from far away, O people of Israel, says the Lord; a strong nation and an old nation, a nation whose language is strange to you, so that you may not get the sense of their words.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:18 @But even in those days, says the Lord, I will not let your destruction be complete.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:19 @And it will come about, when you say, Why has the Lord our God done all these things to us? that you will say to them, As you gave me up, making yourselves servants to strange gods in your land, so will you be servants to strange men in a land which is not yours.

bbe@Jeremiah:5:20 @Say this openly in Jacob and give it out in Judah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:5:22 @Have you no fear of me? says the Lord; will you not be shaking with fear before me, who have put the sand as a limit for the sea, by an eternal order, so that it may not go past it? and though it is ever in motion, it is not able to have its way; though the sound of its waves is loud, they are not able to go past it.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:5:29 @Am I not to give punishment for these things? says the Lord: will not my soul take payment from such a nation as this?

bbe@Jeremiah:6:14 @And they have made little of the wounds of my people, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace

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

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

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

bbe@Jeremiah:7:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:7:2 @Take your place in the doorway of the Lord's house, and give out this word there, and say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who come inside these doors to give worship to the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:3 @The Lord of armies, the God of Israel, says, Let your ways and your doings be changed for the better and I will let you go on living in this place.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:4 @Put no faith in false words, saying, The Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord, are these.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:11 @Has this house, which is named by my name, become a hole of thieves to you? Truly I, even I, have seen it, says the Lord.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:7:19 @Are they moving me to wrath? says the Lord; are they not moving themselves to their shame?

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

bbe@Jeremiah:7:28 @And you are to say to them, This is the nation which has not given ear to the voice of their God, or taken his teaching to heart: good faith is dead and is cut off from their mouths.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:30 @For the children of Judah have done what is evil in my eyes, says the Lord: they have put their disgusting images in the house which is named by my name, making it unclean.

bbe@Jeremiah:7:32 @For this cause, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it will no longer be named Topheth, or, The valley of the son of Hinnom, but, The valley of Death: for they will put the dead into the earth in Topheth till there is no more room.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:1 @At that time, says the Lord, they will take the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his rulers, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem out of their resting-places:

bbe@Jeremiah:8:3 @And death will be desired more than life by the rest of this evil family who are still living in all the places where I have sent them away, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Jeremiah:8:4 @Further, you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Will those who are falling not be lifted up again? will he who has gone away not come back?

bbe@Jeremiah:8:6 @I took note and gave ear, but no one said what is right: no man had regret for his evil-doing, saying, What have I done? everyone goes off on his way like a horse rushing to the fight.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:8:11 @And they have made little of the wounds of the daughter of Zion, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:8:13 @I will put an end to them completely, says the Lord: there are no grapes on the vine and no figs on the fig-tree, and the leaf is dry.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:9:3 @Their tongues are bent like a bow to send out false words: they have become strong in the land, but not for good faith: they go on from evil to evil, and they have no knowledge of me, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:4 @Let everyone keep watch on his neighbour, and put no faith in any brother: for every brother will certainly be tricking his brother, and every neighbour will go about saying evil.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:5 @Everyone will make sport of his neighbour with deceit, not saying what is true: their tongues have been trained to say false words; they are twisted, hating to come back.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:6 @There is wrong on wrong, deceit on deceit; they have given up the knowledge of me, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:8 @His tongue is an arrow causing death; the words of his mouth are deceit: he says words of peace to his neighbour, but in his heart he is waiting secretly for him.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:9 @Am I not to send punishment for these things? says the Lord: will not my soul take payment from such a nation as this?

bbe@Jeremiah:9:24 @But if any man has pride, let it be in this, that he has the wisdom to have knowledge of me, that I am the Lord, working mercy, giving true decisions, and doing righteousness in the earth: for in these things I have delight, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:9:25 @See, the day is coming, says the Lord, when I will send punishment on all those who have circumcision in the flesh;

bbe@Jeremiah:10:1 @Give ear to the word which the Lord says to you, O people of Israel:

bbe@Jeremiah:10:11 @This is what you are to say to them: The gods who have not made the heavens and the earth will be cut off from the earth and from under the heavens.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:11:2 @Give ear to the words of this agreement, and say to the men of Judah and to the people of Jerusalem,

bbe@Jeremiah:11:4 @To the order which I gave your fathers on the day when I took them out of the land of Egypt, out of the oven of iron, saying, Give ear to my voice, and do all the orders I have given you: so you will be my people, and I will be your God:

bbe@Jeremiah:11:6 @And the Lord said to me, Give out these words in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Give ear to the words of this agreement and do them.

bbe@Jeremiah:11:7 @For I gave certain witness to your fathers on the day when I took them up out of the land of Egypt, and even to this day, getting up early and witnessing and saying, Give ear to my voice.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:11:21 @So this is what the Lord of armies has said about the men of Anathoth who have made designs against your life, saying, You are not to be a prophet in the name of the Lord, or death will overtake you by our hands:

bbe@Jeremiah:12:6 @For even your brothers, your father's family, even they have been untrue to you, crying loudly after you: have no faith in them, though they say fair words to you.

bbe@Jeremiah:12:17 @But if they will not give ear, then I will have that nation uprooted, and given to destruction, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:3 @And the word of the Lord came to me a second time, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:13:8 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:13:10 @These evil people who say they will not give ear to my words, who go on in the pride of their hearts and have become servants and worshippers of other gods, will become like this band which is of no use for anything.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:12 @So you are to say this word to them: This is the word of the Lord, the God of Israel: Every skin bottle will be full of wine; and they will say to you, Is it not quite clear to us that every skin bottle will be full of wine?

bbe@Jeremiah:13:13 @Then you are to say to them, The Lord has said, I will make all the people of this land, even the kings seated on David's seat, and the priests and the prophets and all the people of Jerusalem, overcome with strong drink.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:14 @I will have them smashed against one another, fathers and sons together, says the Lord: I will have no pity or mercy, I will have no feeling for them to keep me from giving them to destruction.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:18 @Say to the king and to the queen-mother, Make yourselves low, be seated on the earth: for the crown of your glory has come down from your heads.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:21 @What will you say when he puts over you those whom you yourself have made your friends? will not pains take you like a woman in childbirth?

bbe@Jeremiah:13:22 @And if you say in your heart, Why have these things come on me? because of the number of your sins, your skirts have been uncovered and violent punishment overtakes you.

bbe@Jeremiah:13:25 @This is your fate, the part measured out to you by me, says the Lord, because you have put me out of your memory and put your faith in what is false.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:13 @Then I said, Ah, Lord God! see, the prophets say to them, You will not see the sword or be short of food; but I will give you certain peace in this place.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:14 @Then the Lord said to me, The prophets say false words in my name, and I gave them no orders, and I said nothing to them: what they say to you is a false vision and wonder-working words without substance, the deceit of their hearts.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:15 @So this is what the Lord has said about the prophets who make use of my name, though I sent them not, and say, The sword and need of food will not be in this land: the sword and need of food will put an end to those prophets.

bbe@Jeremiah:14:17 @And you are to say this word to them, Let my eyes be streaming with water night and day, and let it not be stopped; for the virgin daughter of my people is wounded with a great wound, with a very bitter blow

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

bbe@Jeremiah:15:3 @And I will put over them four divisions, says the Lord: the sword causing death, dogs pulling the dead bodies about, and the birds of heaven, and the beasts of the earth to take their bodies for food and put an end to them.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:6 @You have given me up, says the Lord, you have gone back: so my hand is stretched out against you for your destruction; I am tired of changing my purpose.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:9 @The mother of seven is without strength; her spirit is gone from her, her sun has gone down while it is still day: she has been shamed and overcome: and the rest of them I will give up to the sword before their haters, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:15:20 @And I will make you a strong wall of brass to this people; they will be fighting against you, but they will not overcome you: for I am with you to keep you safe, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:1 @Then again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

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

bbe@Jeremiah:16:11 @Then you will say to them, Because your fathers have given me up, says the Lord, and have gone after other gods and become their servants and their worshippers, and have given me up and have not kept my law;

bbe@Jeremiah:16:14 @For this cause, see, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it will no longer be said, By the living Lord, who took the children of Israel up out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Jeremiah:16:16 @See, I will send for great numbers of fishermen, says the Lord, and they will take them like fish in a net; and after that, I will send for numbers of bowmen, and they will go after them, driving them from every mountain and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:17:15 @See, they say to me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come now.

bbe@Jeremiah:17:20 @And say to them, Give ear to the word of the Lord, you kings of Judah, and all the people of Jerusalem who come in by these doors:

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

bbe@Jeremiah:18:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:18:5 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:18:6 @O Israel, am I not able to do with you as this potter does? says the Lord. See, like earth in the potter's hand are you in my hands, O Israel.

bbe@Jeremiah:18:7 @Whenever I say anything about uprooting a nation or a kingdom, and smashing it and sending destruction on it;

bbe@Jeremiah:18:9 @And whenever I say anything about building up a nation or a kingdom, and planting it;

bbe@Jeremiah:18:11 @Now, then, say to the men of Judah and to the people of Jerusalem, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am forming an evil thing against you, and designing a design against you: let every man come back now from his evil way, and let your ways and your doings be changed for the better.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:18:18 @Then they said, Come, let us make a design against Jeremiah; for teaching will never be cut off from the priest, or wisdom from the wise, or the word from the prophet. Come, let us make use of his words for an attack on him, and let us give attention with care to what he says.

bbe@Jeremiah:18:20 @Is evil to be the reward of good? for they have made a deep hole for my soul. Keep in mind how I took my place before you, to say a good word for them so that your wrath might be turned away from them.

bbe@Jeremiah:19:2 @And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom, by the way into the door of broken pots, and there say in a loud voice the words which I will give you;

bbe@Jeremiah:19:3 @Say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, O kings of Judah and people of Jerusalem; the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, See, I will send evil on this place which will be bitter to the ears of anyone hearing of it.

bbe@Jeremiah:19:6 @For this cause, see, a time is coming, says the Lord, when this place will no longer be named Topheth, or, The valley of the son of Hinnom, but, The valley of Death.

bbe@Jeremiah:19:11 @And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies has said: Even so will this people and this town be broken by me, as a potter's bottle is broken and may not be put together again: and the bodies of the dead will be put in the earth in Topheth, till there is no more room.

bbe@Jeremiah:19:12 @This is what I will do to this place, says the Lord, and to its people, making this town like Topheth:

bbe@Jeremiah:20:1 @Now it came to the ears of Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief in authority in the house of the Lord, that Jeremiah was saying these things;

bbe@Jeremiah:20:8 @For every word I say is a cry for help; I say with a loud voice, Violent behaviour and wasting: because the word of the Lord is made a shame to me and a cause of laughing all the day.

bbe@Jeremiah:20:9 @And if I say, I will not keep him in mind, I will not say another word in his name; then it is in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am tired of keeping myself in, I am not able to do it.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:20:15 @A curse on the man who gave the news to my father, saying, You have a male child; making him very glad.

bbe@Jeremiah:21:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, when King Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur, the son of Malchiah, and Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:21:3 @Then Jeremiah said to them, This is what you are to say to Zedekiah:

bbe@Jeremiah:21:7 @And after that, says the Lord, I will give up Zedekiah, king of Judah, and his servants and his people, even those in the town who have not come to their end from the disease and the sword and from need of food, into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and into the hands of their haters, and into the hands of those desiring their death: he will put them to the sword; he will not let anyone get away, he will have no pity or mercy.

bbe@Jeremiah:21:8 @And to this people you are to say, The Lord has said, See, I put before you the way of life and the way of death.

bbe@Jeremiah:21:10 @For my face is turned to this town for evil and not for good, says the Lord: it will be given into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will have it burned with fire.

bbe@Jeremiah:21:13 @See, I am against you, you who are living on the rock of the valley, says the Lord; you who say, Who will come down against us? or who will get into our houses?

bbe@Jeremiah:21:14 @I will send punishment on you in keeping with the fruit of your doings, says the Lord: and I will put a fire in her woodlands, burning up everything round about her

bbe@Jeremiah:22:2 @And say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, O king of Judah, seated on the seat of David, you and your servants and your people who come in by these doors.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:5 @But if you do not give ear to these words, I give you my oath by myself, says the Lord, that this house will become a waste.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:8 @And nations from all sides will go past this town, and every man will say to his neighbour, Why has the Lord done such things to this great town?

bbe@Jeremiah:22:9 @And they will say, Because they gave up the agreement of the Lord their God, and became worshippers and servants of other gods.

bbe@Jeremiah:22:14 @Who says, I will make a wide house for myself, and rooms of great size, and has windows cut out, and has it roofed with cedar and painted with bright red.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:22:24 @By my life, says the Lord, even if Coniah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, was the ring on my right hand, even from there I would have you pulled off;

bbe@Jeremiah:23:1 @A curse is on the keepers who are causing the destruction and loss of the sheep of my field, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:2 @So this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said against the keepers who have the care of my people: You have let my flock be broken up, driving them away and not caring for them; see, I will send on you the punishment for the evil of your doings, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:4 @And I will put over them keepers who will take care of them: never again will they be overcome with fear or be troubled, and there will not be the loss of one of them, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:5 @See, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will give to David a true Branch, and he will be ruling as king, acting wisely, doing what is right, and judging uprightly in the land.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:7 @And so, truly, the days are coming when they will say no longer, By the living Lord, who took the children of Israel up out of the land of Egypt;

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

bbe@Jeremiah:23:12 @For this cause their steps will be slipping on their way: they will be forced on into the dark and have a fall there: for I will send evil on them in the year of their punishment, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:16 @This is what the Lord of armies has said: Do not give ear to the words which the prophets say to you: they give you teaching of no value: it is from themselves that their vision comes, and not out of the mouth of the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:17 @They keep on saying to those who have no respect for the word of the Lord, You will have peace; and to everyone who goes on his way in the pride of his heart, they say, No evil will come to you.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:23 @Am I only a God who is near, says the Lord, and not a God at a distance?

bbe@Jeremiah:23:24 @In what secret place may a man take cover without my seeing him? says the Lord. Is there any place in heaven or earth where I am not? says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:25 @My ears have been open to what the prophets have said, who say false words in my name, saying, I have had a dream, I have had a dream, I have had a dream,

bbe@Jeremiah:23:28 @If a prophet has a dream, let him give out his dream; and he who has my word, let him give out my word in good faith. What has the dry stem to do with the grain? says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:29 @Is not my word like fire? says the Lord; and like a hammer, smashing the rock to bits?

bbe@Jeremiah:23:30 @For this cause I am against the prophets, says the Lord, who take my words, every one from his neighbour.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:31 @See, I am against the prophets, says the Lord, who let their tongues say, He has said.

bbe@Jeremiah:23:32 @See, I am against the prophets of false dreams, says the Lord, who give them out and make my people go out of the way by their deceit and their uncontrolled words: but I did not send them or give them orders; and they will be of no profit to this people, says the Lord.

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

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

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

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

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

bbe@Jeremiah:24:4 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:25:2 @This word Jeremiah gave out to all the people of Judah and to those living in Jerusalem, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:25:5 @Saying, Come back now, everyone from his evil way and from the evil of your doings, and keep your place in the land which the Lord has given to you and to your fathers, from times long past even for ever:

bbe@Jeremiah:25:7 @But you have not given ear to me, says the Lord; so that you have made me angry with the work of your hands, causing evil to yourselves.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:9 @See, I will send and take all the families of the north, says the Lord, and Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, my servant, and make them come against this land, and against its people, and against all these nations on every side; and I will give them up to complete destruction, and make them a cause of fear and surprise and a waste place for ever

bbe@Jeremiah:25:12 @And it will come about, after seventy years are ended, that I will send punishment on the king of Babylon, and on that nation, says the Lord, for their evil-doing, and on the land of the Chaldaeans; and I will make it a waste for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:27 @And you are to say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Take of this cup and be overcome, and let it come out again from your lips, and from your fall you will never be lifted up again, because of the sword which I will send among you.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:28 @And it will be, if they will not take of the cup in your hand, then you are to say to them, This is what the Lord of armies has said: You will certainly take of it.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:29 @For see, I am starting to send evil on the town which is named by my name, and are you to be without any punishment? You will not be without punishment: for I will send a sword on all people living on the earth, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:30 @So, as a prophet, give out these words among them, and say to them, The voice of the Lord will be sounding like a lion from on high; he will send out his voice from his holy place, like the loud voice of a lion, against his flock; he will give a cry, like those who are crushing the grapes, against all the people of the earth.

bbe@Jeremiah:25:31 @A noise will come, even to the end of the earth; for the Lord has a cause against the nations, he will give his decision against all flesh; as for the evil-doers, he will give them to the sword, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:26:1 @When Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, first became king, this word came from the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:26:2 @This is what the Lord has said: Take your place in the open square of the Lord's house and say to all the towns of Judah, who come into the Lord's house for worship, everything I give you orders to say to them: keep back not a word;

bbe@Jeremiah:26:4 @And you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: If you do not give ear to me and go in the way of my law which I have put before you,

bbe@Jeremiah:26:8 @Now, when Jeremiah had come to the end of saying everything the Lord had given him orders to say to all the people, the priests and the prophets and all the people took him by force, saying, Death will certainly be your fate.

bbe@Jeremiah:26:12 @Then Jeremiah said to all the rulers and to all the people, The Lord has sent me as his prophet to say against this house and against this town all the words which have come to your ears.

bbe@Jeremiah:26:15 @Only be certain that, if you put me to death, you will make yourselves and your town and its people responsible for the blood of one who has done no wrong: for truly, the Lord has sent me to you to say all these words in your ears.

bbe@Jeremiah:27:1 @When Zedekiah, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, first became king this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:27:4 @And give them orders to say to their masters, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Say to your masters,

bbe@Jeremiah:27:8 @And it will come about, that if any nation does not become a servant to this same Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, and does not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, then I will send punishment on that nation, says the Lord, by the sword and need of food and by disease, till I have given them into his hands.

bbe@Jeremiah:27:9 @And you are not to give attention to your prophets or your readers of signs or your dreamers or those who see into the future or those who make use of secret arts, who say to you, You will not become servants of the king of Babylon:

bbe@Jeremiah:27:10 @For they say false words to you, so that you may be sent away far from your land, and so that you may be forced out by me and come to destruction.

bbe@Jeremiah:27:11 @But as for that nation which puts its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and becomes his servant, I will let that nation keep on in its land, farming it and living in it, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:27:12 @And I said all this to Zedekiah, king of Judah, saying, Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon and become his servants and his people, so that you may keep your lives.

bbe@Jeremiah:27:14 @And you are not to give ear to the prophets who say to you, You will not become servants of the king of Babylon: for what they say is not true.

bbe@Jeremiah:27:15 @For I have not sent them, says the Lord, but they are saying what is false in my name, so that I might send you out by force, causing destruction to come on you and on your prophets.

bbe@Jeremiah:27:16 @And I said to the priests and to all the people, This is what the Lord has said: Give no attention to the words of your prophets who say to you, See, in a very little time now the vessels of the Lord's house will come back again from Babylon: for what they say to you is false.

bbe@Jeremiah:27:22 @They will be taken away to Babylon, and there they will be till the day when I send their punishment on them, says the Lord. Then I will take them up and put them back in their place.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:28:7 @But still, give ear to this word which I am saying to you and to all the people:

bbe@Jeremiah:28:12 @Then after the yoke had been broken off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah by Hananiah the prophet, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:28:13 @Go and say to Hananiah, This is what the Lord has said: Yokes of wood have been broken by you, but in their place I will make yokes of iron.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:3 @By the hand of Elasah, the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah, the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah, king of Judah, sent to Babylon, to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon,) saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:29:9 @For they are saying to you what is false in my name: I have not sent them, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:11 @For I am conscious of my thoughts about you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you hope at the end.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:14 @I will be near you again, says the Lord, and your fate will be changed, and I will get you together from all the nations and from all the places where I had sent you away, says the Lord; and I will take you back again to the place from which I sent you away prisoners.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:19 @Because they have not given ear to my words, says the Lord, when I sent to them my servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them; but you did not give ear, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:21 @This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said about Ahab, the son of Kolaiah, and about Zedekiah, the son of Maaseiah, who are saying to you what is false in my name: See, I will give them up into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and he will put them to death before your eyes.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:29:23 @Because they have done shame in Israel, and have taken their neighbours' wives, and in my name have said false words, which I did not give them orders to say; and I myself am the witness, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:25 @Shemaiah the Nehelamite sent a letter in his name to Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:29:28 @For he has sent to us in Babylon saying, The time will be long: go on building houses and living in them, and planting gardens and using the fruit of them.

bbe@Jeremiah:29:30 @Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:29:31 @Send to all those who have been taken away, saying, This is what the Lord has said about Shemaiah the Nehelamite: Because Shemaiah has been acting as a prophet to you, and I did not send him, and has made you put your faith in what is false;

bbe@Jeremiah:29:32 @For this cause the Lord has said, Truly I will send punishment on Shemaiah and on his seed; not a man of his family will have a place among this people, and he will not see the good which I am going to do to my people, says the Lord: because he has said words against the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:30:3 @For see, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will let the fate of my people Israel and Judah be changed, says the Lord: and I will make them come back to the land which I gave to their fathers, so that they may take it for their heritage.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:8 @For it will come about on that day, says the Lord of armies, that his yoke will be broken off his neck, and his bands will be burst; and men of strange lands will no longer make use of him as their servant:

bbe@Jeremiah:30:10 @So have no fear, O Jacob, my servant, says the Lord; and do not be troubled, O Israel: for see, I will make you come back from far away, and your seed from the land where they are prisoners; and Jacob will come back, and will be quiet and at peace, and no one will give him cause for fear.

bbe@Jeremiah:30:11 @For I am with you, says the Lord, to be your saviour: for I will put an end to all the nations where I have sent you wandering, but I will not put an end to you completely: though with wise purpose I will put right your errors, and will not let you go quite without punishment.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:30:21 @And their chief will be of their number; their ruler will come from among themselves; and I will let him be present before me, so that he may come near to me: for who may have strength of heart to come near me? says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:1 @At that time, says the Lord, I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:7 @For the Lord has said, Make a glad song for Jacob and give a cry on the top of the mountains: give the news, give praise, and say, The Lord has given salvation to his people, even to the rest of Israel.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:10 @Give ear to the word of the Lord, O you nations, and give news of it in the sea-lands far away, and say, He who has sent Israel wandering will get him together and will keep him as a keeper does his flock.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:14 @I will give the priests their desired fat things, and my people will have a full measure of my good things, says the Lord.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:31:17 @And there is hope for the future, says the Lord; and your children will come back to the land which is theirs.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:20 @Is Ephraim my dear son? is he the child of my delight? for whenever I say things against him, I still keep him in my memory: so my heart is troubled for him; I will certainly have mercy on him, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:27 @See, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will have Israel and Judah planted with the seed of man and with the seed of beast.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:28 @And it will come about that, as I have been watching over them for the purpose of uprooting and smashing down and overturning and sending destruction and causing trouble; so I will be watching over them for the purpose of building up and planting, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:29 @In those days they will no longer say, The fathers have been tasting bitter grapes and the children's teeth are put on edge.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:31 @See, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new agreement with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah:

bbe@Jeremiah:31:32 @Not like the agreement which I made with their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to be their guide out of the land of Egypt; which agreement was broken by them, and I gave them up, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:33 @But this is the agreement which I will make with the people of Israel after those days, says the Lord; I will put my law in their inner parts, writing it in their hearts; and I will be their God, and they will be my people.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:34 @And no longer will they be teaching every man his neighbour and every man his brother, saying, Get knowledge of the Lord: for they will all have knowledge of me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord: for they will have my forgiveness for their evil-doing, and their sin will go from my memory for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:36 @If the order of these things before me is ever broken, says the Lord, then will the seed of Israel come to an end as a nation before me for ever.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:37 @This is what the Lord has said: If the heavens on high may be measured, and the bases of the earth searched out, then I will give up the seed of Israel, because of all they have done, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:31:38 @See, the days are coming, says the Lord, for the building of the Lord's town, from the tower of Hananel to the doorway of the angle.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:3 @For Zedekiah, king of Judah, had had him shut up, saying, Why have you, as a prophet, been saying, The Lord has said, See, I will give this town into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will take it;

bbe@Jeremiah:32:5 @And he will take Zedekiah away to Babylon, where he will be till I have pity on him, says the Lord: though you are fighting with the Chaldaeans, things will not go well for you?

bbe@Jeremiah:32:6 @And Jeremiah said, The word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:32:7 @See, Hanamel, the son of Shallum, your father's brother, will come to you and say, Give the price and get for yourself my property in Anathoth: for you have the right of the nearest relation.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:13 @And I gave orders to Baruch in front of them, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:32:16 @Now after I had given the paper to Baruch, the son of Neriah, I made my prayer to the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:32:26 @And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:32:30 @For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have done nothing but evil in my eyes from their earliest years: the children of Israel have only made me angry with the work of their hands, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:36 @And now the Lord, the God of Israel, has said of this town, about which you say, It is given into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword and by need of food and by disease:

bbe@Jeremiah:32:43 @And there will be trading in fields in this land of which you say, It is a waste, without man or beast; it is given into the hands of the Chaldaeans.

bbe@Jeremiah:32:44 @Men will get fields for money, and put the business in writing, stamping the papers and having them witnessed, in the land of Benjamin and in the country round Jerusalem and in the towns of Judah and in the towns of the hill-country and in the towns of the lowland and in the towns of the South: for I will let their fate be changed, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:33:1 @Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still shut up in the place of the armed watchmen, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:33:10 @This is what the Lord has said: There will again be sounding in this place, of which you say, It is a waste, without man and without beast; even in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem which are waste and unpeopled, without man and without beast,

bbe@Jeremiah:33:11 @Happy sounds, the voice of joy, the voice of the newly-married man and the voice of the bride, the voices of those who say, Give praise to the Lord of armies, for the Lord is good, for his mercy is unchanging for ever: the voices of those who go with praise into the house of the Lord. For I will let the land come back to its first condition, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:33:13 @In the towns of the hill-country, in the towns of the lowland, and in the towns of the South and in the land of Benjamin and in the country round Jerusalem and in the towns of Judah, the flocks will again go under the hand of him who is numbering them, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:33:14 @See, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will give effect to the good word which I have said about the people of Israel and the people of Judah.

bbe@Jeremiah:33:19 @And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:33:23 @And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:33:24 @Have you taken note of what these people have said, The two families, which the Lord took for himself, he has given up? This they say, looking down on my people as being, in their eyes, no longer a nation.

bbe@Jeremiah:34:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, when Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth which were under his rule, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem and all its towns, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:34:2 @The Lord, the God of Israel, has said, Go and say to Zedekiah, king of Judah, This is what the Lord has said: See, I will give this town into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will have it burned with fire:

bbe@Jeremiah:34:5 @You will come to your end in peace; and such burnings as they made for your fathers, the earlier kings before you, will be made for you; and they will be weeping for you and saying, Ah lord! for I have said the word, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:34:12 @For this reason the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:34:13 @The Lord, the God of Israel, has said, I made an agreement with your fathers on the day when I took them out of Egypt, out of the prison-house, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:34:22 @See, I will give orders, says the Lord, and make them come back to this town; and they will make war on it and take it and have it burned with fire: and I will make the towns of Judah waste and unpeopled.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:1 @The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, in the days of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:35:6 @But they said, We will take no wine: for Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, gave us orders, saying, You are to take no wine, you or your sons, for ever:

bbe@Jeremiah:35:12 @Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:35:13 @This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Go and say to the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, Is there no hope of teaching you to give ear to my words? says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:35:15 @And I have sent you all my servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them, saying, Come back, now, every man from his evil way, and do better, and go not after other gods to become their servants, and you will go on living in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but your ears have not been open, and you have not given attention to me.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:1 @Now it came about in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:36:5 @And Jeremiah gave orders to Baruch, saying, I am shut up, and am not able to go into the house of the Lord:

bbe@Jeremiah:36:14 @So all the rulers sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, Take in your hand the book from which you have been reading to the people and come. So Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the book in his hand and came down to them.

bbe@Jeremiah:36:17 @And questioning Baruch, they said, Say now, how did you put all these words down in writing from his mouth?

bbe@Jeremiah:36:27 @Then after the book, in which Baruch had put down the words of Jeremiah, had been burned by the king, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:36:29 @And about Jehoiakim, king of Judah, you are to say, This is what the Lord has said: You have put this book into the fire, saying, Why have you put in it that the king of Babylon will certainly come, causing the destruction of this land and putting an end to every man and beast in it?

bbe@Jeremiah:37:3 @And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal, the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Make prayer now to the Lord our God for us.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:6 @Then the word of the Lord came to the prophet Jeremiah, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:37:7 @The Lord, the God of Israel, has said: This is what you are to say to the king of Judah who sent you to get directions from me: See, Pharaoh's army, which has come out to your help, will go back to Egypt, to their land.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:9 @The Lord has said, Have no false hopes, saying to yourselves, The Chaldaeans will go away from us: for they will not go away.

bbe@Jeremiah:37:13 @But when he was at the Benjamin door, a captain of the watch named Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah, who was stationed there, put his hand on Jeremiah the prophet, saying, You are going to give yourself up to the Chaldaeans.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:4 @Then the rulers said to the king, Let this man be put to death, because he is putting fear into the hearts of the men of war who are still in the town, and into the hearts of the people, by saying such things to them: this man is not working for the well-being of the people, but for their damage.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:10 @Then the king gave orders to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, Take with you three men from here and get Jeremiah out of the water-hole before death overtakes him.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:16 @So King Zedekiah gave his oath to Jeremiah secretly, saying, By the living Lord, who gave us our life, I will not put you to death, or give you up to these men who are desiring to take your life.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:22 @See, all the rest of the women in the house of the king of Judah will be taken out to the king of Babylon's captains, and these women will say, Your nearest friends have been false to you and have got the better of you: they have made your feet go deep into the wet earth, and they are turned away back from you.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:38:26 @Then you are to say to them, I made my request to the king, that he would not send me back to my death in Jonathan's house.

bbe@Jeremiah:38:27 @Then all the rulers came to Jeremiah, questioning him: and he gave them an answer in the words the king had given him orders to say. So they said nothing more to him; for the thing was not made public.

bbe@Jeremiah:39:11 @Now Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, gave orders about Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:39:12 @Take him and keep an eye on him and see that no evil comes to him; but do with him whatever he says to you.

bbe@Jeremiah:39:15 @Now the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the place of the armed watchmen, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:39:16 @Go and say to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, my words will come true for this town, for evil and not for good: they will come about before your eyes on that day.

bbe@Jeremiah:39:17 @But I will keep you safe on that day, says the Lord: you will not be given into the hands of the men you are fearing.

bbe@Jeremiah:39:18 @For I will certainly let you go free, and you will not be put to the sword, but your life will be given to you out of the hands of your attackers: because you have put your faith in me, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:40:9 @And Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, took an oath to them and their men, saying, Have no fear of the servants of the Chaldaeans: go on living in the land, and become the servants of the king of Babylon, and all will be well.

bbe@Jeremiah:40:16 @But Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, said to Johanan, the son of Kareah, You are not to do this: for what you say about Ishmael is false.

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

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

bbe@Jeremiah:42:11 @Have no fear of the king of Babylon, of whom you are now in fear; have no fear of him, says the Lord: for I am with you to keep you safe and to give you salvation from his hands.

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

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

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

bbe@Jeremiah:43:1 @And it came about that when Jeremiah had come to the end of giving all the people the words of the Lord their God, which the Lord their God had sent him to say to them, even all these words,

bbe@Jeremiah:43:2 @Then Azariah, the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the men of pride, said to Jeremiah, You have said what is false: the Lord our God has not sent you to say, You are not to go into the land of Egypt and make your living-place there:

bbe@Jeremiah:43:8 @Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

bbe@Jeremiah:43:10 @And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and he will put the seat of his kingdom on these stones which have been put in a safe place here by you; and his tent will be stretched over them.

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

bbe@Jeremiah:44:26 @And now give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who are living in the land of Egypt: Truly, I have taken an oath by my great name, says the Lord, that my name is no longer to be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, By the life of the Lord God.

bbe@Jeremiah:44:29 @And this will be the sign to you, says the Lord, that I will give you punishment in this place, so that you may see that my words will certainly have effect against you for evil:

bbe@Jeremiah:45:5 @And as for you, are you looking for great things for yourself? Have no desire for them: for truly I will send evil on all flesh, says the Lord: but your life I will keep safe from attack wherever you go.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:5 @What have I seen? they are overcome with fear and turned back; their men of war are broken and have gone in flight, not looking back: fear is on every side, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:46:8 @Egypt is coming up like the Nile, and his waters are lifting their heads like the rivers, and he says, I will go up, covering the earth; I will send destruction on the town and its people.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:14 @The Lord of armies has taken an oath by himself, saying, Truly, I will make you full with men as with locusts, and their voices will be loud against you.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:24 @And I will give to Babylon, and to all the people of Chaldaea, their reward for all the evil they have done in Zion before your eyes, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:25 @See, I am against you, says the Lord, O mountain of destruction, causing the destruction of all the earth: and my hand will be stretched out on you, rolling you down from the rocks, and making you a burned mountain.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:26 @And they will not take from you a stone for the angle of a wall or the base of a building; but you will be a waste place for ever, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:35 @May the violent things done to me, and my downfall, come on Babylon, the daughter of Zion will say; and, May my blood be on the people of Chaldaea, Jerusalem will say.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:39 @When they are heated, I will make a feast for them, and overcome them with wine, so that they may become unconscious, sleeping an eternal sleep without awaking, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:48 @And the heaven and the earth and everything in them, will make a song of joy over Babylon: for those who make her waste will come from the north, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:52 @For this reason, see, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will send punishment on her images; and through all her land the wounded will be crying out in pain.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:53 @Even if Babylon was lifted up to heaven, even if she had the high places of her strength shut in with walls, still I would send against her those who will make her waste, says the Lord.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:57 @And I will make her chiefs and her wise men, her rulers and her captains and her men of war, overcome with wine; their sleep will be an eternal sleep without awaking, says the King; the Lord of armies is his name.

bbe@Jeremiah:51:62 @And after reading them, say, O Lord, you have said about this place that it is to be cut off, so that no one will be living in it, not a man or a beast, but it will be unpeopled for ever.

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

bbe@Lamentations:2:12 @They say to their mothers, Where is grain and wine? when they are falling like the wounded in the open squares of the town, when their life is drained out on their mother's breast.

bbe@Lamentations:2:15 @All who go by make a noise with their hands at you; they make hisses, shaking their heads at the daughter of Jerusalem, and saying, Is this the town which was the crown of everything beautiful, the joy of all the earth?

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

bbe@Lamentations:3:37 @Who is able to say a thing, and give effect to it, if it has not been ordered by the Lord?

bbe@Ezekiel:2:1 @And he said to me, Son of man, get up on your feet, so that I may say words to you.

bbe@Ezekiel:2:4 @And the children are hard and stiff-hearted; I am sending you to them: and you are to say to them, These are the words of the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:2:8 @But you, son of man, give ear to what I say to you, and do not be uncontrolled like that uncontrolled people: let your mouth be open and take what I give you.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:1 @And he said to me, Son of man, take this roll for your food, and go and say my words to the children of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:4 @And he said to me, Son of man, go now to the children of Israel, and say my words to them.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:10 @Then he said to me, Son of man, take into your heart all my words which I am about to say to you, and let your ears be open to them

bbe@Ezekiel:3:11 @And go now to those who have been taken away as prisoners, to the children of your people, and say to them, This is what the Lord has said; if they give ear or if they do not.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:16 @And at the end of seven days, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:3:18 @When I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly be your fate; and you give him no word of it and say nothing to make clear to the evil-doer the danger of his evil way, so that he may be safe; that same evil man will come to death in his evil-doing; but I will make you responsible for his blood.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:21 @But if you say to the upright man that he is not to do evil, he will certainly keep his life because he took note of your word; and your life will be safe.

bbe@Ezekiel:3:27 @But when I have talk with you I will make your mouth open, and you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Let the hearer give ear; and as for him who will not, let him keep his ears shut: for they are an uncontrolled people.

bbe@Ezekiel:5:4 @And again take some of these and put them in the fire, burning them up in the fire; and say to all the children of Israel,

bbe@Ezekiel:5:11 @For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, because you have made my holy place unclean with all your hated things and all your disgusting ways, you will become disgusting to me; my eye will have no mercy and I will have no pity.

bbe@Ezekiel:6:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:6:2 @Son of man, let your face be turned to the mountains of Israel, and be a prophet to them, and say,

bbe@Ezekiel:6:10 @And they will be certain that I am the Lord: not for nothing did I say that I would do this evil to them.

bbe@Ezekiel:6:11 @This is what the Lord has said: Give blows with your hand, stamping with your foot, and say, O sorrow! because of all the evil and disgusting ways of the children of Israel: for death will overtake them by the sword and through need of food and by disease.

bbe@Ezekiel:7:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:7:2 @And you, son of man, say, This is what the Lord has said to the land of Israel: An end has come, the end has come on the four quarters of the land.

bbe@Ezekiel:8:12 @And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen what the responsible men of the children of Israel do in the dark, every man in his room of pictured images? for they say, The Lord does not see us; the Lord has gone away from the land.

bbe@Ezekiel:9:9 @Then he said to me, The sin of the children of Israel and Judah is very, very great, and the land is full of blood and the town full of evil ways: for they say, The Lord has gone away from the land, and the Lord does not see.

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

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

bbe@Ezekiel:11:5 @And the spirit of the Lord came on me, and he said to me, Say, These are the words of the Lord: This is what you have said, O children of Israel; what comes into your mind is clear to me.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:8 @You have been fearing the sword, and I will send the sword on you, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:13 @Now while I was saying these things, death came to Pelatiah, the son of Benaiah. Then falling down on my face and crying out with a loud voice, I said, Ah, Lord! will you put an end to all the rest of Israel?

bbe@Ezekiel:11:14 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:11:16 @For this reason say, This is what the Lord has said: Though I have had them moved far off among the nations, and though I have sent them wandering among the countries, still I have been a safe place for them for a little time in the countries where they have come.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:17 @Then say, This is what the Lord has said: I will get you together from the peoples, and make you come out of the countries where you have been sent in flight, and I will give you the land of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:11:21 @But as for those whose heart goes after their hated and disgusting things, I will send on their heads the punishment of their ways, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:12:8 @And in the morning the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:12:10 @You are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: This word has to do with the ruler in Jerusalem and all the children of Israel in it.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:11 @Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so will it be done to them: they will go away as prisoners.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:17 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

bbe@Ezekiel:12:21 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:12:22 @Son of man, what is this saying which you have about the land of Israel, The time is long and every vision comes to nothing?

bbe@Ezekiel:12:23 @For this cause say to them, This is what the Lord has said: I have made this saying come to an end, and it will no longer be used as a common saying in Israel; but say to them, The days are near, and the effect of every vision.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:25 @For I am the Lord; I will say the word and what I say I will do; it will not be put off: for in your days, O uncontrolled people, I will say the word and do it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:26 @Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:12:27 @Son of man, see, the children of Israel say, The vision which he sees is for the days which are a long way off, and his words are of times still far away.

bbe@Ezekiel:12:28 @Say to them then, This is what the Lord has said: Not one of my words will be put off any longer, but what I say I will do, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:13:2 @Son of man, be a prophet against the prophets of Israel, and say to those prophets whose words are the invention of their hearts, Give ear to the word of the Lord;

bbe@Ezekiel:13:6 @They have seen visions without substance and made use of secret arts, who say, The Lord has said; and the Lord has not sent them: hoping that the word would have effect.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:7 @Have you not seen a vision without substance and have you not falsely made use of secret arts, when you say, The Lord has said; though I have said nothing?

bbe@Ezekiel:13:8 @So this is what the Lord has said: Because your words are without substance and your visions are false, see, I am against you, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:10 @Because, even because they have been guiding my people into error, saying, Peace; when there is no peace; and in the building of a division wall they put whitewash on it:

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

bbe@Ezekiel:13:12 @And when the wall has come down, will they not say to you, Where is the whitewash which you put on it?

bbe@Ezekiel:13:15 @So I will let loose my passion on the wall in full measure, and on those who put whitewash on it; and I will say to you, Where is the wall, and where are those who put whitewash on it?

bbe@Ezekiel:13:16 @Even the prophets of Israel who say words to Jerusalem, who see visions of peace for her when there is no peace, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:13:17 @And you, son of man, let your face be turned against the daughters of your people, who are acting the part of prophets at their pleasure; be a prophet against them, and say,

bbe@Ezekiel:13:19 @And you have put me to shame among my people for a little barley and some bits of bread, sending death on souls for whom there is no cause of death, and keeping those souls living who have no right to life, by the false words you say to my people who give ear to what is false.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:2 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

bbe@Ezekiel:14:6 @For this cause say to the children of Israel, These are the words of the Lord: Come back and give up your false gods and let your faces be turned from your disgusting things.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:8 @And my face will be turned against that man, and I will make him a sign and a common saying, cutting him off from among my people; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:9 @And if the prophet, tricked by deceit, says anything, it is I the Lord by whom he has been tricked, and I will put out my hand against him, and he will be cut off from among my people Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:11 @So that the children of Israel may no longer go wandering away from me, or make themselves unclean with all their wrongdoing; but they will be my people, and I will be their God, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:14:12 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

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

bbe@Ezekiel:14:17 @Or if I send a sword against that land, and say, Sword, go through the land, cutting off from it man and beast:

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

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

bbe@Ezekiel:14:23 @They will give you comfort when you see their ways and their doings: and you will be certain that not for nothing have I done all the things I have done in it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:15:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:15:8 @And I will make the land a waste because they have done evil, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:16:3 @And say, This is what the Lord has said to Jerusalem: Your start and your birth was from the land of the Canaanite; an Amorite was your father and your mother was a Hittite.

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

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

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

bbe@Ezekiel:16:23 @And it came about, after all your evil-doing, says the Lord,

bbe@Ezekiel:16:30 @How feeble is your heart, says the Lord, seeing that you do all these things, the work of a loose and overruling woman;

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

bbe@Ezekiel:16:44 @See, in every common saying about you it will be said, As the mother is, so is her daughter.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:48 @By my life, says the Lord, Sodom your sister never did, she or her daughters, what you and your daughters have done.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:58 @The reward of your evil designs and your disgusting ways has come on you, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:16:63 @So that, at the memory of these things, you may be at a loss, never opening your mouth because of your shame; when you have my forgiveness for all you have done, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:17:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:17:2 @Son of man, give out a dark saying, and make a comparison for the children of Israel,

bbe@Ezekiel:17:3 @And say, This is what the Lord has said: A great eagle with great wings, full of long feathers of different colours, came to Lebanon, and took the top of the cedar:

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

bbe@Ezekiel:17:11 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:17:12 @Say now to this uncontrolled people, Are these things not clear to you? Say to them, See, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and took its king and its rulers away with him to Babylon;

bbe@Ezekiel:17:16 @By my life, says the Lord, truly in the place of the king who made him king, whose oath he put on one side and let his agreement with him be broken, even in Babylon he will come to his death.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:1 @The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:18:2 @Why do you make use of this saying about the land of Israel, The fathers have been tasting bitter grapes and the children's teeth are on edge?

bbe@Ezekiel:18:3 @By my life, says the Lord, you will no longer have this saying in Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:9 @And has been guided by my rules and has kept my laws and done them: he is upright, life will certainly be his, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:19 @But you say, Why does not the son undergo punishment for the evil-doing of the father? When the son has done what is ordered and right, and has kept my rules and done them, life will certainly be his.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:23 @Have I any pleasure in the death of the evil-doer? says the Lord: am I not pleased if he is turned from his way so that he may have life?

bbe@Ezekiel:18:25 @But you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Give ear, now, O children of Israel; is my way not equal? are not your ways unequal?

bbe@Ezekiel:18:29 @But still the children of Israel say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O children of Israel, are my ways not equal? are not your ways unequal?

bbe@Ezekiel:18:30 @For this cause I will be your judge, O children of Israel, judging every man by his ways, says the Lord. Come back and be turned from all your sins; so that they may not be the cause of your falling into evil.

bbe@Ezekiel:18:32 @For I have no pleasure in the death of him on whom death comes, says the Lord: be turned back then, and have life.

bbe@Ezekiel:19:1 @Take up now a song of grief for the ruler of Israel, and say,

bbe@Ezekiel:20:2 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:20:3 @Son of man, say to the responsible men of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Have you come to get directions from me? By my life, says the Lord, you will get no directions from me.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:5 @And say to them, This is what the Lord has said: In the day when I took Israel for myself, when I made an oath to the seed of the family of Jacob, and I gave them knowledge of myself in the land of Egypt, saying to them with an oath, I am the Lord your God;

bbe@Ezekiel:20:27 @For this cause, son of man, say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: In this your fathers have further put shame on my name by doing wrong against me.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:30 @For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Are you making yourselves unclean as your fathers did? are you being untrue to me by going after their disgusting works?

bbe@Ezekiel:20:31 @And when you give your offerings, causing your sons to go through the fire, you make yourselves unclean with all your images to this day; and will you come to me for directions, O children of Israel? By my life, says the Lord, you will get no direction from me.

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

bbe@Ezekiel:20:33 @By my life, says the Lord, truly, with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm and with burning wrath let loose, I will be King over you:

bbe@Ezekiel:20:36 @As I took up the cause with your fathers in the waste land of the land of Egypt, so will I take up the cause with you says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:40 @For in my holy mountain, in the high mountain of Israel, says the Lord, there all the children of Israel, all of them, will be my servants in the land; there I will take pleasure in them, and there I will be worshipped with your offerings and the first-fruits of the things you give, and with all your holy things.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:44 @And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when I take you in hand for the honour of my name, and not for your evil ways or your unclean doings, O children of Israel, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:45 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:20:47 @And say to the woodland of the South, Give ear to the words of the Lord: this is what the Lord has said: See, I will have a fire lighted in you, for the destruction of every green tree in you and every dry tree: the flaming flame will not be put out, and all faces from the south to the north will be burned by it.

bbe@Ezekiel:20:49 @Then I said, Ah, Lord! they say of me, Is he not a maker of stories?

bbe@Ezekiel:21:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:21:3 @And say to the land of Israel, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am against you, and I will take my sword out of its cover, cutting off from you the upright and the evil.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:7 @And when they say to you, Why are you making sounds of grief? then say, Because of the news, for it is coming: and every heart will become soft, and all hands will be feeble, and every spirit will be burning low, and all knees will be turned to water: see, it is coming and it will be done, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:21:8 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:21:9 @Son of man, say as a prophet, These are the words of the Lord: Say, A sword, a sword which has been made sharp and polished:

bbe@Ezekiel:21:18 @And the word of the Lord came to me again, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:21:28 @And you, son of man, say as a prophet, This is what the Lord has said about the children of Ammon and about their shame: Say, A sword, even a sword let loose, polished for death, to make it shining so that it may be like a flame:

bbe@Ezekiel:22:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:22:3 @And you are to say, This is what the Lord has said: A town causing blood to be drained out in her streets so that her time may come, and making images in her to make her unclean!

bbe@Ezekiel:22:9 @In you there are men who say evil of others, causing death; in you they have taken the flesh with the blood for food; in your streets they have put evil designs into effect.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:12 @In you they have taken rewards as the price of blood; you have taken interest and great profits, and you have taken away your neighbours' goods by force, and have not kept me in mind, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:17 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:22:23 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:22:24 @Son of man, say to her, You are a land on which no rain or thunderstorm has come in the day of wrath.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:28 @And her prophets have been using whitewash, seeing foolish visions and making false use of secret arts, saying, This is what the Lord has said, when the Lord has said nothing.

bbe@Ezekiel:22:31 @And I let loose my passion on them, and have put an end to them in the fire of my wrath: I have made the punishment of their ways come on their heads, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:23:1 @The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:23:34 @And after drinking it and draining it out, you will take the last drops of it to the end, pulling off your breasts: for I have said it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:24:3 @And make a comparison for this uncontrolled people, and say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Put on the cooking-pot, put it on the fire and put water in it:

bbe@Ezekiel:24:14 @I the Lord have said the word and I will do it; I will not go back or have mercy, and my purpose will not be changed; in the measure of your ways and of your evil doings you will be judged, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:15 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:24:20 @Then I said to them, The word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:24:21 @Say to the people of Israel, The Lord has said, See, I will make my holy place unclean, the pride of your strength, the pleasure of your eyes, and the desire of your soul; and your sons and daughters, who did not come with you here, will be put to the sword.

bbe@Ezekiel:24:27 @In that day your mouth will be open to him who has got away safe, and you will say words to him and your lips will no longer be shut: so you will be a sign to them and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:25:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

bbe@Ezekiel:25:8 @This is what the Lord has said: Because Moab and Seir are saying, See, the people of Judah are like all the nations;

bbe@Ezekiel:26:14 @I will make you an uncovered rock: you will be a place for the stretching out of nets; there will be no building you up again: for I the Lord have said it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:27:3 @And say to Tyre, O you who are seated at the doorway of the sea, trading for the peoples with the great sea-lands, these are the words of the Lord: You, O Tyre, have said, I am a ship completely beautiful.

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

bbe@Ezekiel:28:1 @The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:28:2 @Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, This is what the Lord has said: Because your heart has been lifted up, and you have said, I am a god, I am seated on the seat of God in the heart of the seas; but you are man and not God, though you have made your heart as the heart of God:

bbe@Ezekiel:28:9 @Will you say, in the face of those who are taking your life, I am God? but you are man and not God in the hands of those who are wounding you.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:10 @Your death will be the death of those who are without circumcision, by the hands of men from strange lands: for I have said it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:28:11 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:28:12 @Son of man, make a song of grief for the king of Tyre, and say to him, This is what the Lord has said: You are all-wise and completely beautiful;

bbe@Ezekiel:28:20 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:28:21 @Son of man, let your face be turned to Zidon, and be a prophet against it, and say,

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

bbe@Ezekiel:29:3 @Say to them, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am against you, Pharaoh, king of Egypt, the great river-beast stretched out among his Nile streams, who has said, The Nile is mine, and I have made it for myself.

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

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

bbe@Ezekiel:30:1 @The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:30:2 @Son of man, be a prophet, and say, These are the words of the Lord: Give a cry, Aha, for the day!

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

bbe@Ezekiel:30:20 @Now in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:31:1 @Now in the eleventh year, in the third month, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

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

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

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

bbe@Ezekiel:32:8 @All the bright lights of heaven I will make dark over you, and put dark night on your land, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:14 @Then I will make their waters clear and their rivers will be flowing like oil, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:16 @It is a song of grief, and people will give voice to it, the daughters of the nations will give voice to it, even for Egypt and all her people, says the Lord.

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

bbe@Ezekiel:32:21 @The strong among the great ones will say to him from the underworld, Are you more beautiful than any? go down, you and your helpers, and take your rest among those without circumcision, and those who have been put to the sword.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:31 @Pharaoh will see them and be comforted on account of all his people: even Pharaoh and all his army, put to death by the sword, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:32:32 @For he put his fear in the land of the living: and he will be put to rest among those without circumcision, with those who have been put to death with the sword, even Pharaoh and all his people, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:33:2 @Son of man, give a word to the children of your people, and say to them, When I make the sword come on a land, if the people of the land take a man from among their number and make him their watchman:

bbe@Ezekiel:33:8 @When I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly overtake you; and you say nothing to make clear to the evil-doer the danger of his way; death will overtake that evil man in his evil-doing, but I will make you responsible for his blood.

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

bbe@Ezekiel:33:11 @Say to them, By my life, says the Lord, I have no pleasure in the death of the evil-doer; it is more pleasing to me if he is turned from his way and has life: be turned, be turned from your evil ways; why are you looking for death, O children of Israel?

bbe@Ezekiel:33:12 @And you, son of man, say to the children of your people, The righteousness of the upright man will not make him safe in the day when he does wrong; and the evil-doing of the evil man will not be the cause of his fall in the day when he is turned from his evil-doing; and the upright man will not have life because of his righteousness in the day when he does evil.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:13 @When I say to the upright that life will certainly be his; if he puts his faith in his righteousness and does evil, not one of his upright acts will be kept in memory; but in the evil he has done, death will overtake him.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:14 @And when I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly be your fate; if he is turned from his sin and does what is ordered and right;

bbe@Ezekiel:33:17 @But the children of your people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: when it is they whose way is not equal.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:20 @And still you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O children of Israel, I will be your judge, giving to everyone the reward of his ways.

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

bbe@Ezekiel:33:23 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

bbe@Ezekiel:33:25 @For this cause say to them, This is what the Lord has said: You take your meat with the blood, your eyes are lifted up to your images, and you are takers of life: are you to have the land for your heritage?

bbe@Ezekiel:33:27 @This is what you are to say to them: The Lord has said, By my life, truly, those who are in the waste places will be put to the sword, and him who is in the open field I will give to the beasts for their food, and those who are in the strong places and in holes in the rocks will come to their death by disease.

bbe@Ezekiel:33:30 @And as for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking together about you by the walls and in the doorways of the houses, saying to one another, Come now, give ear to the word which comes from the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:34:2 @Son of man, be a prophet against the keepers of the flock of Israel, and say to them, O keepers of the sheep! this is the word of the Lord: A curse is on the keepers of the flock of Israel who take the food for themselves! is it not right for the keepers to give the food to the sheep?

bbe@Ezekiel:34:8 @By my life, says the Lord, truly, because my sheep have been taken away, and my sheep became food for all the beasts of the field, because there was no keeper, and my keepers did not go in search of the sheep, but the keepers took food for themselves and gave my sheep no food;

bbe@Ezekiel:34:15 @I myself will give food to my flock, and I will give them rest, says the Lord.

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

bbe@Ezekiel:34:30 @And they will be certain that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, the children of Israel, are my people, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:34:31 @And you are my sheep, the sheep of my grass-lands, and I am your God, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:35:1 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:35:3 @And say to it, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am against you, O Mount Seir, and my hand will be stretched out against you, and I will make you a waste and a cause for wonder.

bbe@Ezekiel:35:6 @For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, because you have been sinning through blood, blood will come after you.

bbe@Ezekiel:35:11 @For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, I will do to you as you have done in your wrath and in your envy, which you have made clear in your hate for them; and I will make clear to you who I am when you are judged by me.

bbe@Ezekiel:35:12 @And you will see that I the Lord have had knowledge of all the bitter things which you have said against the mountains of Israel, saying, They have been made waste, they are given to us to take for our heritage.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:1 @And you, son of man, be a prophet about the mountains of Israel, and say, You mountains of Israel, give ear to the word of the Lord:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:3 @For this cause be a prophet, and say, This is what the Lord has said: Because, even because they have been glad over you and put you to shame on every side, because you have become a heritage for the rest of the nations, and you are taken up on the lips of talkers and in the evil talk of the people:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:6 @For this cause be a prophet about the land of Israel, and say to the mountains and to the hills, to the streams and to the valleys, This is what the Lord has said: Truly, in my bitter feeling and in my wrath I have said these things, because you have undergone the shame of the nations:

bbe@Ezekiel:36:13 @This is what the Lord has said: Because they say to you, You, O land, are the destruction of men, causing loss of children to your nation;

bbe@Ezekiel:36:14 @For this reason you will no longer take the lives of men and will never again be the cause of loss of children to your nation, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:15 @And I will not let the shaming of the nations come to your ears, and no longer will you be looked down on by the peoples, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:16 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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

bbe@Ezekiel:36:23 @And I will make holy my great name which has been made unclean among the nations, which you have made unclean among them; and it will be clear to the nations that I am the Lord, says the Lord, when I make myself holy in you before their eyes.

bbe@Ezekiel:36:32 @Not because of you am I doing it, says the Lord; let it be clear to you, and be shamed and made low because of your ways, O children of Israel.

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

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

bbe@Ezekiel:37:4 @And again he said to me, Be a prophet to these bones, and say to them, O you dry bones, give ear to the word of the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:9 @And he said to me, Be a prophet to the wind, be a prophet, son of man, and say to the wind, The Lord has said: Come from the four winds, O wind, breathing on these dead so that they may come to life.

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

bbe@Ezekiel:37:12 @For this cause be a prophet to them, and say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am opening the resting-places of your dead, and I will make you come up out of your resting-places, O my people; and I will take you into the land of Israel.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:14 @And I will put my spirit in you, so that you may come to life, and I will give you a rest in your land: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it and have done it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:15 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:37:18 @And when the children of your people say to you, Will you not make clear to us what these things have to do with us?

bbe@Ezekiel:37:19 @Then say to them, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am taking the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel who are in his company; and I will put it on the stick of Judah and make them one stick, and they will be one in my hand.

bbe@Ezekiel:37:21 @And say to them, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am taking the children of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and will get them together on every side, and take them into their land:

bbe@Ezekiel:38:1 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Ezekiel:38:3 @And say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am against you, O Gog, ruler of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal:

bbe@Ezekiel:38:11 @And you will say, I will go up to the land of small unwalled towns; I will go to those who are quiet, living, all of them, without fear of danger, without walls or locks or doors:

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

bbe@Ezekiel:38:14 @For this cause, son of man, be a prophet and say to Gog, These are the words of the Lord: In that day, when my people Israel are living without fear of danger, will you not be moved against them?

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

bbe@Ezekiel:38:18 @And it will come about in that day, when Gog comes up against the land of Israel, says the Lord, that my wrath will come up, and my passion and my bitter feeling.

bbe@Ezekiel:38:21 @And I will send to all my mountains for a sword against him, says the Lord: every man's sword will be against his brother.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:1 @And you, son of man, be a prophet against Gog, and say, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am against you, O Gog, ruler of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal:

bbe@Ezekiel:39:5 @You will come down in the open field: for I have said it, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:8 @See, it is coming and it will be done, says the Lord; this is the day of which I have given word.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:10 @And they will take no wood out of the field or have any cut down in the woods; for they will make their fires of the instruments of war: and they will take by force the property of those who took their property, and go off with the goods of those who took their goods, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:13 @And all the people of the land will put them in the earth; and it will be to their honour in the day when I let my glory be seen, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:17 @And you, son of man, this is what the Lord has said: Say to the birds of every sort and to all the beasts of the field, Get together and come; come together on every side to the offering which I am putting to death for you, a great offering on the mountains of Israel, so that you may have flesh for your food and blood for your drink.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:20 @At my table you will have food in full measure, horses and war-carriages, great men and all the men of war, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:39:29 @And my face will no longer be covered from them: for I have sent the out-flowing of my spirit on the children of Israel, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:43:19 @You are to give to the priests, the Levites of the seed of Zadok, who come near to me, says the Lord God, to do my work, a young ox for a sin-offering.

bbe@Ezekiel:43:27 @And when these days have come to an end, then on the eighth day and after, the priests will make your burned offerings on the altar and your peace-offerings; and I will take pleasure in you, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:5 @And the Lord said to me, Son of man, take to heart, and let your eyes see and your ears be open to everything I say to you about all the rules of the house of the Lord and all its laws; and take note of the ways into the house and all the ways out of the holy place.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:6 @And say to the uncontrolled children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: O you children of Israel, let it be enough for you, among the disgusting things which you have done,

bbe@Ezekiel:44:12 @Because they did this work for them before their images, and became a cause of sin to the children of Israel; for this cause my hand has been lifted up against them, says the Lord, and their punishment will be on them.

bbe@Ezekiel:44:15 @But as for the priests, the sons of Zadok, who took care of my holy place when the children of Israel were turned away from me, they are to come near me to do my work, they will take their places before me, offering to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord;

bbe@Ezekiel:44:27 @And on the day when he goes into the inner square, to do the work of the holy place, he is to make his sin-offering, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:9 @This is what the Lord has said: Let this be enough for you, O rulers of Israel: let there be an end of violent behaviour and wasting; do what is right, judging uprightly; let there be no more driving out of my people, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:45:15 @And one lamb from the flock out of every two hundred, from all the families of Israel, for a meal offering and for a burned offering and for peace-offerings, to take away their sin, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:47:23 @In whatever tribe the man from a strange land is living, there you are to give him his heritage, says the Lord.

bbe@Ezekiel:48:29 @This is the land of which distribution is to be made by the decision of the Lord, among the tribes of Israel for their heritage, and these are their heritages, says the Lord.

bbe@Daniel:2:9 @That if you do not make my dream clear to me there is only one fate for you: for you have made ready false and evil words to say before me till the times are changed: so give me an account of the dream, and I will be certain that you are able to make the sense of it clear.

bbe@Daniel:3:29 @And it is my decision that any people, nation, or language saying evil against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, will be cut to bits and their houses made waste: because there is no other god who is able to give salvation such as this.

bbe@Daniel:4:8 @But at last Daniel came in before me, he whose name was Belteshazzar, after the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods: and I put the dream before him, saying,

bbe@Daniel:4:23 @And as for the vision which the king saw of a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven, saying, Let the tree be cut down and given to destruction;

bbe@Daniel:4:31 @While the word was still in the king's mouth, a voice came down from heaven, saying, O King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is said: The kingdom has gone from you:

bbe@Daniel:4:35 @And all the people of the earth are as nothing: he does his pleasure in the army of heaven and among the people of the earth: and no one is able to keep back his hand, or say to him, What are you doing?

bbe@Daniel:5:12 @Because a most special spirit, and knowledge and reason and the power of reading dreams and unfolding dark sayings and answering hard questions, were seen to be in him, even in Daniel (named Belteshazzar by the king): now let Daniel be sent for, and he will make clear the sense of the writing

bbe@Daniel:7:8 @I was watching the horns with care, and I saw another coming up among them, a little one, before which three of the first horns were pulled up by the roots: and there were eyes like a man's eyes in this horn, and a mouth saying great things.

bbe@Daniel:7:20 @And about the ten horns on his head and the other which came up, causing the fall of three; that horn which had eyes, and a mouth saying great things, which seemed to be greater than the other horns.

bbe@Daniel:7:25 @And he will say words against the Most High, attempting to put an end to the saints of the Most High; and he will have the idea of changing times and law; and the saints will be given into his hands for a time and times and half a time.

bbe@Daniel:8:16 @And the voice of a man came to my ears between the sides of the Ulai, crying out and saying, Gabriel, make the vision clear to this man.

bbe@Daniel:8:23 @And in the later years of their kingdom, when their evil doings have become complete, there will come up a king full of pride and expert in dark sayings.

bbe@Daniel:9:20 @And while I was still saying these words in prayer, and putting my sins and the sins of my people Israel before the Lord, and requesting grace from the Lord my God for the holy mountain of my God;

bbe@Daniel:10:11 @And he said to me, O Daniel, you man dearly loved, take in the sense of the words I say to you and get up on to your feet: for to you I am now sent; and when he had said this to me I got on to my feet, shaking with fear.

bbe@Daniel:10:15 @And after he had said these words to me, I kept my face turned to the earth and was unable to say anything.

bbe@Daniel:10:19 @And he said to me, O man greatly loved, have no fear: peace be with you, be strong and let your heart be lifted up. And at his words I became strong, and said, Let my lord say on, for you have given me strength.

bbe@Daniel:11:27 @And as for these two kings, their hearts will be fixed on doing evil and they will say false words at one table; but it will come to nothing: for the end will be at the time fixed.

bbe@Daniel:11:36 @And the king will do his pleasure; he will put himself on high, lifting himself over every god, and saying things to be wondered at against the God of gods; and all will be well for him till the wrath is complete; for what has been purposed will be done.

bbe@Hosea:2:1 @Say to your brothers, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.

bbe@Hosea:2:7 @And if she goes after her lovers she will not overtake them; if she makes search for them she will not see them; then will she say, I will go back to my first husband, for then it was better for me than now.

bbe@Hosea:2:13 @And I will give her punishment for the days of the Baals, to whom she has been burning perfumes, when she made herself fair with her nose-rings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, giving no thought to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Hosea:2:14 @For this cause I will make her come into the waste land and will say words of comfort to her.

bbe@Hosea:2:16 @And in that day, says the Lord, you will say to me, Ishi; and you will never again give me the name of Baali;

bbe@Hosea:2:17 @For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and never again will she say their names.

bbe@Hosea:2:21 @And it will be, in that day, says the Lord, that I will give an answer to the heavens, and the heavens to the earth;

bbe@Hosea:2:23 @And I will put her as seed in the earth, and I will have mercy on her to whom no mercy was given; and I will say to those who were not my people, You are my people, and they will say, My God.

bbe@Hosea:7:2 @And they do not say to themselves that I keep in mind all their sin; now their evil acts come round them on every side; they are before my face.

bbe@Hosea:10:3 @Now, truly, they will say, We have no king, we have no fear of the Lord; and the king, what is he able to do for us?

bbe@Hosea:10:8 @And the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, will come to destruction; thorns and waste plants will come up on their altars; they will say to the mountains, Be a cover over us; and to the hills, Come down on us.

bbe@Hosea:11:11 @Shaking with fear like a bird, they will come out of Egypt, like a dove out of the land of Assyria: and I will give them rest in their houses, says the Lord

bbe@Hosea:13:2 @And now their sins are increased; they have made themselves a metal image, false gods from their silver, after their designs, all of them the work of the metal-workers; they say of them, Let them give offerings, let men give kisses to the oxen.

bbe@Hosea:14:2 @Take with you words, and come back to the Lord; say to him, Let there be forgiveness for all wrongdoing, so that we may take what is good, and give in payment the fruit of our lips.

bbe@Hosea:14:3 @Assyria will not be our salvation; we will not go on horses; we will not again say to the work of our hands, You are our gods; for in you there is mercy for the child who has no father.

bbe@Joel:2:12 @But even now, says the Lord, come back to me with all your heart, keeping from food, with weeping and with sorrow:

bbe@Joel:2:17 @Let the priests, the servants of the Lord, be weeping between the covered way and the altar, and let them say, Have mercy on your people, O Lord, do not give up your heritage to shame, so that the nations become their rulers: why let them say among the peoples, Where is their God?

bbe@Joel:2:28 @And after that, it will come about, says the Lord, that I will send my spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will be prophets, your old men will have dreams, your young men will see visions:

bbe@Amos:3:9 @Give out the news in the great houses of Assyria and in the land of Egypt, and say, Come together on the mountains of Samaria, and see what great outcries are there, and what cruel acts are done in it.

bbe@Amos:3:10 @For they have no knowledge of how to do what is right, says the Lord, who are storing up violent acts and destruction in their great houses

bbe@Amos:3:11 @For this reason, says the Lord, an attacker will come, shutting in the land on every side; and your strength will come down and your great houses will be made waste.

bbe@Amos:3:13 @Give ear now, and give witness against the family of Jacob, says the Lord God, the God of armies;

bbe@Amos:3:15 @And I will send destruction on the winter house with the summer house; the ivory houses will be falling down and the great houses will come to an end, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:1 @Give ear to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are in the hill of Samaria, by whom the poor are kept down, and those in need are crushed; who say to their lords, Get out the wine and give us drink.

bbe@Amos:4:3 @And you will go out through the broken places, every one going straight before her, and you will be sent into Harmon, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:5 @Let that which is leavened be burned as a praise-offering, let the news of your free offerings be given out publicly; for this is pleasing to you, O children of Israel, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:6 @But in all your towns I have kept food from your teeth, and in all your places there has been need of bread: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:8 @So two or three towns went wandering to one town looking for water, and did not get enough: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:9 @I have sent destruction on your fields by burning and disease: the increase of your gardens and your vine-gardens, your fig-trees and your olive-trees, has been food for worms: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:4:10 @I have sent disease among you, as it was in Egypt: I have put your young men to the sword, and have taken away your horses; I have made the evil smell from your tents come up to your noses: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord

bbe@Amos:4:11 @And I have sent destruction among you, as when God sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a burning stick pulled out of the fire: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:5:13 @So the wise will say nothing in that time; for it is an evil time.

bbe@Amos:5:14 @Go after good and not evil, so that life may be yours: and so the Lord, the God of armies, will be with you, as you say.

bbe@Amos:5:16 @So these are the words of the Lord, the God of armies, the Lord: There will be weeping in all the open spaces; and in all the streets they will say, Sorrow! sorrow! and they will get in the farmer to the weeping, and the makers of sad songs to give cries of grief.

bbe@Amos:5:17 @In all the vine-gardens there will be cries of grief: for I will go through among you, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:5:27 @And I will send you away as prisoners farther than Damascus, says the Lord, whose name is the God of armies.

bbe@Amos:6:8 @The Lord God has taken an oath by himself, says the Lord, the God of armies: the pride of Jacob is disgusting to me, and I have hate for his great houses: so I will give up the town with everything in it.

bbe@Amos:6:10 @And when a man's relation, even the one who is responsible for burning his body, lifting him up to take his bones out of the house, says to him who is in the inmost part of the house, Is there still anyone with you? and he says, No; then he will say, Keep quiet, for the name of the Lord may not be named.

bbe@Amos:6:13 @You whose joy is in a thing of no value, who say, Have we not taken for ourselves horns by the strength which is ours?

bbe@Amos:6:14 @For see, I will send against you a nation, O Israel, says the Lord, the God of armies, ruling you cruelly from the way into Hamath as far as the stream of the Arabah

bbe@Amos:7:10 @Then Amaziah, the priest of Beth-el, sent to Jeroboam, king of Israel, saying, Amos has made designs against you among the people of Israel: the land is troubled by his words.

bbe@Amos:7:16 @Now then, give ear to the word of the Lord: You say, Be no prophet to Israel, and say not a word against the people of Isaac

bbe@Amos:8:3 @And the songs of the king's house will be cries of pain in that day, says the Lord God: great will be the number of the dead bodies, and everywhere they will put them out without a word.

bbe@Amos:8:5 @Saying, When will the new moon be gone, so that we may do trade in grain? and the Sabbath, so that we may put out in the market the produce of our fields? making the measure small and the price great, and trading falsely with scales of deceit;

bbe@Amos:8:9 @And it will come about in that day, says the Lord God, that I will make the sun go down in the middle of the day, and I will make the earth dark in daylight:

bbe@Amos:8:11 @See, the days are coming, says the Lord God, when I will send times of great need on the land, not need of food or desire for water, but for hearing the words of the Lord.

bbe@Amos:8:14 @Those who make their oaths by the sin of Samaria and say, By the life of your God, O Dan; and, By the living way of Beer-sheba; even they will go down, never again to be lifted up.

bbe@Amos:9:7 @Are you not as the children of the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel? says the Lord. Have I not taken Israel up out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Aramaeans from Kir?

bbe@Amos:9:8 @See, the eyes of the Lord are on the evil kingdom, and I will put an end to it in all the earth; but I will not send complete destruction on Jacob, says the Lord.

bbe@Amos:9:10 @All those sinners among my people will be put to the sword who say, Evil will not overtake us or come face to face with us.

bbe@Amos:9:12 @So that the rest of Edom may be their heritage, and all the nations who have been named by my name, says the Lord, who is doing this.

bbe@Amos:9:13 @See, the days will come, says the Lord, when the ploughman will overtake him who is cutting the grain, and the crusher of the grapes him who is planting seed; and sweet wine will be dropping from the mountains, and the hills will be turned into streams of wine.

bbe@Amos:9:15 @And I will have them planted in their land, and never again will they be uprooted from their land which I have given them, says the Lord your God.

bbe@Obadiah:1:1 @The vision of Obadiah. This is what the Lord has said about Edom: We have had word from the Lord, and a representative has been sent among the nations, saying, Up! and let us make war against her.

bbe@Obadiah:1:4 @Though you go up on high like an eagle, though your house is placed among the stars, I will make you come down from there, says the Lord.

bbe@Obadiah:1:8 @Will I not, in that day, says the Lord, take away the wise men out of Edom, and wisdom out of the mountain of Esau?

bbe@Jonah:1:1 @And the word of the Lord came to Jonah, the son of Amittai, saying,

bbe@Jonah:1:6 @And the ship's captain came to him and said to him, What are you doing sleeping? Up! say a prayer to your God, if by chance God will give a thought to us, so that we may not come to destruction.

bbe@Jonah:3:1 @And the word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time, saying,

bbe@Jonah:3:9 @Who may say that God will not be turned, changing his purpose and turning away from his burning wrath, so that destruction may not overtake us?

bbe@Micah:2:4 @In that day this saying will be said about you, and this song of grief will be made: The heritage of my people is measured out, and there is no one to give it back; those who have made us prisoners have taken our fields from us, and complete destruction has come to us.

bbe@Micah:2:6 @Let not words like these be dropped, they say: Shame and the curse will not come to the family of Jacob!

bbe@Micah:2:11 @If a man came with a false spirit of deceit, saying, I will be a prophet to you of wine and strong drink: he would be the sort of prophet for this people.

bbe@Micah:3:5 @This is what the Lord has said about the prophets by whom my people have been turned from the right way; who, biting with their teeth, say, Peace; and if anyone puts nothing in their mouths they make ready for war against him.

bbe@Micah:3:11 @Its heads take rewards for judging, and the priests take payment for teaching, and the prophets get silver for reading the future: but still, supporting themselves on the Lord, they say, Is not the Lord among us? no evil will overtake us.

bbe@Micah:4:2 @And a number of nations will go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will give us knowledge of his ways and we will be guided by his word: for from Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

bbe@Micah:4:6 @In that day, says the Lord, I will get together her who goes with uncertain steps, I will get together her who has been sent away, and her on whom I have sent evil;

bbe@Micah:4:11 @And now a number of nations have come together against you, and they say, Let her be made unclean and let our eyes see the fate of Zion.

bbe@Micah:5:10 @And it will come about in that day, says the Lord, that I will take away your horses from you, and will give your war-carriages to destruction:

bbe@Nahum:2:13 @See, I am against you, says the Lord of armies, and I will have your war-carriages burned in the smoke, and your young lions will be food for the sword: you will no longer get your food by force on the earth, and the voice of your she-lions will be stopped for ever.

bbe@Nahum:3:5 @See, I am against you, says the Lord of armies, and I will have your skirts pulled over your face, and let the nations see you unclothed, and the kingdoms your shame.

bbe@Nahum:3:7 @And it will come about that all who see you will go in flight from you and say, Nineveh is made waste: who will be weeping for her? where am I to get comforters for her?

bbe@Habakkuk:1:13 @Before your holy eyes sin may not be seen, and you are unable to put up with wrong; why, then, are your eyes on the false? why do you say nothing when the evil-doer puts an end to one who is more upright than himself?

bbe@Habakkuk:2:19 @A curse on him who says to the wood, Awake! to the unbreathing stone, Up! let it be a teacher! See, it is plated with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all inside it.

bbe@Zephaniah:1:2 @I will take away everything from the face of the earth, says the Lord.

bbe@Zephaniah:1:3 @I will take away man and beast; I will take away the birds of the heaven and the fishes of the sea; causing the downfall of the evil-doers, and cutting man off from the face of the earth, says the Lord.

bbe@Zephaniah:1:10 @And in that day, says the Lord, there will be the sound of a cry from the fish doorway, and an outcry from the new town, and a great thundering from the hills, and cries of grief from the people of the Hollow;

bbe@Zephaniah:1:12 @And it will come about at that time, that I will go searching through Jerusalem with lights; and I will send punishment on the men who have become like wine stored over-long, who say to themselves, The Lord will not do good and will not do evil.

bbe@Zephaniah:2:9 @For this cause, by my life, says the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, truly Moab will become like Sodom and the children of Ammon like Gomorrah, given up to waste plants and salt pools and unpeopled for ever: the rest of my people will take their property, the overflow of my nation will take their heritage.

bbe@Zephaniah:2:15 @This is the town which was full of joy, living without fear of danger, saying in her heart, I am, and there is no other: how has she been made waste, a place for beasts to take their rest in! everyone who goes by her will make hisses, waving his hand.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:8 @For this reason, go on waiting for me, says the Lord, till the day when I come up as a witness: for my purpose is to send for the nations and to get the kingdoms together, so that I may let loose on them my passion, even all my burning wrath: for all the earth will be burned up in the fire of my bitter passion.

bbe@Zephaniah:3:13 @The rest of Israel will do no evil and say no false words; the tongue of deceit will not be seen in their mouth: for they will take their food and their rest, and no one will be a cause of fear to them.

bbe@Haggai:1:1 @In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, ruler of Judah, and to Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying,

bbe@Haggai:1:2 @These are the words of the Lord of armies: These people say, The time has not come for building the Lord's house.

bbe@Haggai:1:3 @Then the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying,

bbe@Haggai:1:8 @Go up to the hills and get wood and put up the house; and I will take pleasure in it and be honoured, says the Lord.

bbe@Haggai:1:9 @You were looking for much, and it came to little; and when you got it into your house, I took it away with a breath. Why? says the Lord of armies. Because of my house which is a waste, while every man takes care of the house which is his.

bbe@Haggai:1:13 @Then Haggai, whom the Lord had sent to give his words to the people, said, I am with you, says the Lord.

bbe@Haggai:2:1 @In the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying,

bbe@Haggai:2:2 @Say now to Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, ruler of Judah, and to Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the rest of the people,

bbe@Haggai:2:4 @But now be strong, O Zerubbabel, says the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest; and be strong, all you people of the land, says the Lord, and get to work: for I am with you, says the Lord of armies:

bbe@Haggai:2:7 @And I will make a shaking of all the nations, and the desired things of all nations will come: and I will make this house full of my glory, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Haggai:2:8 @The silver is mine and the gold is mine, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Haggai:2:9 @The second glory of this house will be greater than the first, says the Lord of armies: and in this place I will give peace, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Haggai:2:10 @On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying,

bbe@Haggai:2:11 @These are the words of the Lord of armies: Put now a point of law to the priests, saying,

bbe@Haggai:2:14 @Then Haggai said, So is this people and so is this nation before me, says the Lord; and so is every work of their hands; and the offering they give there is unclean.

bbe@Haggai:2:17 @And I sent burning and wasting and a rain of ice-drops on all the works of your hands; but still you were not turned to me, says the Lord.

bbe@Haggai:2:20 @And the word of the Lord came a second time to Haggai, on the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,

bbe@Zechariah:1:4 @Be not like your fathers, to whom the voice of the earlier prophets came, saying, Be turned now from your evil ways and from your evil doings: but they did not give ear to me or take note, says the Lord.

bbe@Zechariah:1:7 @On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,

bbe@Zechariah:1:14 @And the angel who was talking to me said to me, Let your voice be loud and say, These are the words of the Lord of armies: I am greatly moved about the fate of Jerusalem and of Zion.

bbe@Zechariah:1:16 @So this is what the Lord has said: I have come back to Jerusalem with mercies; my house is to be put up in her, says the Lord of armies, and a line is to be stretched out over Jerusalem.

bbe@Zechariah:1:17 @And again let your voice be loud and say, This is what the Lord of armies has said: My towns will again be overflowing with good things, and again the Lord will give comfort to Zion and take Jerusalem for himself.

bbe@Zechariah:2:4 @Said to him, Go quickly and say to this young man, Jerusalem will be an unwalled town, because of the great number of men and cattle in her.

bbe@Zechariah:2:5 @For I, says the Lord, will be a wall of fire round about her, and I will be the glory inside her.

bbe@Zechariah:2:6 @Ho, ho! go in flight from the land of the north, says the Lord: for I have sent you far and wide to the four winds of heaven, says the Lord.

bbe@Zechariah:2:10 @Give songs of joy, O daughter of Zion: for I come, and I will make my resting-place among you, says the Lord.

bbe@Zechariah:3:9 @For see, the stone which I have put before Joshua; on one stone are seven eyes: see, the design cut on it will be my work, says the Lord of armies, and I will take away the sin of that land in one day.

bbe@Zechariah:3:10 @In that day, says the Lord of armies, you will be one another's guests under the vine and under the fig-tree

bbe@Zechariah:4:6 @This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by force or by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Zechariah:4:8 @Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Zechariah:5:4 @And I will send it out, says the Lord of armies, and it will go into the house of the thief and into the house of him who takes a false oath by my name: and it will be in his house, causing its complete destruction, with its woodwork and its stones.

bbe@Zechariah:6:9 @And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

bbe@Zechariah:6:12 @And say to him, These are the words of the Lord of armies: See, the man whose name is the Branch, under whom there will be fertile growth.

bbe@Zechariah:7:3 @And to say to the priests of the house of the Lord of armies and to the prophets, Am I to go on weeping in the fifth month, separating myself as I have done in past years?

bbe@Zechariah:7:4 @Then the word of the Lord of armies came to me, saying

bbe@Zechariah:7:5 @Say to all the people of the land and to the priests, When you went without food and gave yourselves to grief in the fifth and the seventh months for these seventy years, did you ever do it because of me?

bbe@Zechariah:7:8 @And the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, saying,

bbe@Zechariah:7:13 @And it came about that as they would not give ear to his voice, so I would not give ear to their voice, says the Lord of armies:

bbe@Zechariah:8:1 @And the word of the Lord of armies came to me, saying,

bbe@Zechariah:8:11 @But now I will not be to the rest of this people as I was in the past, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Zechariah:8:14 @For this is what the Lord of armies has said: As it was my purpose to do evil to you when your fathers made me angry, says the Lord of armies, and my purpose was not changed:

bbe@Zechariah:8:16 @These are the things which you are to do: Let every man say what is true to his neighbour; and let your judging give peace in your towns.

bbe@Zechariah:8:17 @Let no one have any evil thought in his heart against his neighbour; and have no love for false oaths: for all these things are hated by me, says the Lord.

bbe@Zechariah:9:10 @And he will have the war-carriage cut off from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the bow of war will be cut off: and he will say words of peace to the nations: and his rule will be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.

bbe@Zechariah:11:6 @For I will have no more pity for the people of the land, says the Lord; but I will give up everyone into his neighbour's hand and into the hand of his king: and they will make the land waste, and I will not keep them safe from their hands.

bbe@Zechariah:12:4 @In that day, says the Lord, I will put fear into every horse and make every horseman go off his head: and my eyes will be open on the people of Judah, and I will make every horse of the peoples blind.

bbe@Zechariah:12:5 @And the families of Judah will say in their hearts, The people of Jerusalem have their strength in the Lord of armies, their God.

bbe@Zechariah:13:2 @And it will come about on that day, says the Lord of armies, that I will have the names of the images cut off out of the land, and there will be no more memory of them: and I will send all the prophets and the unclean spirit away from the land.

bbe@Zechariah:13:3 @And if anyone goes on acting as a prophet, then his father and his mother who gave him life will say to him, You may not go on living, for you are saying what is false in the name of the Lord; and his father and his mother will put a sword through him when he does so.

bbe@Zechariah:13:5 @But he will say, I am no prophet, but a worker on the land; for I have been an owner of land from the time when I was young.

bbe@Zechariah:13:6 @And if anyone says to him, What are these wounds between your hands? then he will say, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.

bbe@Zechariah:13:7 @Awake! O sword, against the keeper of my flock, and against him who is with me, says the Lord of armies: put to death the keeper of the sheep, and the sheep will go in flight: and my hand will be turned against the little ones.

bbe@Zechariah:13:8 @And it will come about that in all the land, says the Lord, two parts of it will be cut off and come to an end; but the third will be still living there.

bbe@Zechariah:13:9 @And I will make the third part go through the fire, cleaning them as silver is made clean, and testing them as gold is tested: and they will make their prayer to me and I will give them an answer: I will say, It is my people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.

bbe@Malachi:1:2 @You have been loved by me, says the Lord. But you say, Where was your love for us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? says the Lord: but Jacob was loved by me,

bbe@Malachi:1:7 @You put unclean bread on my altar. And you say, How have we made it unclean? By your saying, The table of the Lord is of no value.

bbe@Malachi:1:8 @And when you give what is blind for an offering, it is no evil! and when you give what is damaged and ill, it is no evil! Give it now to your ruler; will he be pleased with you, or will you have his approval? says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:1:9 @And now, make request for the grace of God so that he may have mercy on us: this has been your doing: will he give his approval to any of you? says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:1:10 @If only there was one among you who would see that the doors were shut, so that you might not put a light to the fire on my altar for nothing! I have no pleasure in you, says the Lord of armies, and I will not take an offering from your hands.

bbe@Malachi:1:12 @But you make it unholy by saying, The Lord's table has become unclean, and his food is of no value.

bbe@Malachi:1:13 @And you say, See, what a weariness it is! and you let out your breath at it, says the Lord of armies; and you have given what has been cut about by beasts, and what is damaged in its feet and ill; this is the offering you give: will this be pleasing to me from your hands? says the Lord.

bbe@Malachi:1:14 @A curse on the false man who has a male in his flock, and takes his oath, and gives to the Lord a damaged thing: for I am a great King, says the Lord of armies, and my name is to be feared among the Gentiles.

bbe@Malachi:2:4 @And you will be certain that I have sent this order to you, so that it might be my agreement with Levi, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:2:8 @But you are turned out of the way; you have made the law hard for numbers of people; you have made the agreement of Levi of no value, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:2:14 @But you say, For what reason? Because the Lord has been a witness between you and the wife of your early years, to whom you have been untrue, though she is your friend and the wife to whom you have given your word.

bbe@Malachi:2:16 @For I am against the putting away of a wife, says the Lord, the God of Israel, and against him who is clothed with violent acts, says the Lord of armies: so give thought to your spirit and do not be false in your acts.

bbe@Malachi:2:17 @You have made the Lord tired with your words. And still you say, How have we made him tired? By your saying, Everyone who does evil is good in the eyes of the Lord, and he has delight in them; or, Where is God the judge?

bbe@Malachi:3:1 @See, I am sending my servant, and he will make ready the way before me; and the Lord, whom you are looking for, will suddenly come to his Temple; and the angel of the agreement, in whom you have delight, see, he is coming, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:3:5 @And I will come near to you for judging; I will quickly be a witness against the wonder-workers, against those who have been untrue in married life, against those who take false oaths; against those who keep back from the servant his payment, and who are hard on the widow and the child without a father, who do not give his rights to the man from a strange country, and have no fear of me, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:3:7 @From the days of your fathers you have been turned away from my rules and have not kept them. Come back to me, and I will come back to you, says the Lord of armies. But you say, How are we to come back?

bbe@Malachi:3:8 @Will a man keep back from God what is right? But you have kept back what is mine. But you say, What have we kept back from you? Tenths and offerings.

bbe@Malachi:3:10 @Let your tenths come into the store-house so that there may be food in my house, and put me to the test by doing so, says the Lord of armies, and see if I do not make the windows of heaven open and send down such a blessing on you that there is no room for it

bbe@Malachi:3:11 @And on your account I will keep back the locusts from wasting the fruits of your land; and the fruit of your vine will not be dropped on the field before its time, says the Lord of armies

bbe@Malachi:3:12 @And you will be named happy by all nations: for you will be a land of delight, says the Lord of armies.

bbe@Malachi:3:13 @Your words have been strong against me, says the Lord. And still you say, What have we said against you?

bbe@Malachi:3:17 @And they will be mine, says the Lord, in the day when I make them my special property; and I will have mercy on them as a man has mercy on his son who is his servant.

bbe@Malachi:4:1 @For see, the day is coming, it is burning like an oven; all the men of pride and all who do evil will be dry stems of grass: and in the day which is coming they will be burned up, says the Lord of armies, till they have not a root or a branch.

bbe@Malachi:4:3 @And the evil-doers will be crushed under you, they will be dust under your feet, in the day when I do my work, says the Lord of armies.
