me, “Do not seal up the words of prophecy in this book, because the ti
me is near."

me, “Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!”"
Revelation 22:8 And I am John, who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had shown
me these things.

me, “These words are faithful and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent His angel to show His servants what must soon take place.”"
Revelation 22:4 They will see His face, and His na
me will be on their foreheads.
Revelation 22:1 Then the angel showed
me a river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb
Revelation 21:27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who practices an abomination or a lie, but only those whose na
mes are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life."

methyst.
Revelation 21:19 The foundations of the city walls were adorned with every kind of precious stone: The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth e
merald,
Revelation 21:17 And he
measured its wall to be 144 cubits, by the human
measure the angel was using.
Revelation 21:16 The city lies foursquare, with its width the sa
me as its length. And he
measured the city with the rod, and all its di
mensions were equal—12,000 stadia in length and width and height."
Revelation 21:15 The angel who spoke with
me had a golden
measuring rod to
measure the city and its gates and walls.
Revelation 21:14 The wall of the city had twelve foundations bearing the na
mes of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

♫2 Revelation 20:15 And if anyone was found whose na
me was not written in the Book of Life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
Revelation 20:10 And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, into which the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown. There they will be tor
mented day and night forever and ever.
Revelation 20:9 And they marched across the broad expanse of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. But fire ca
me down from heaven and consu

Revelation 20:5 The rest of the dead did not co
me back to life until the thousand years were complete. This is the first resurrection.
Revelation 20:4 Then I saw the thrones, and those seated on them had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image, and had not received its mark on their foreheads or hands. And they ca
me to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
Revelation 20:3 And he threw him into the Abyss, shut it, and sealed it over him, so that he could not deceive the nations until the thousand years were complete. After that, he must be released for a brief period of ti
me.
Revelation 19:20 But the beast was captured along with the false prophet, who on its behalf had perfor

Revelation 19:18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings and commanders and mighty
men, of horses and riders, of everyone slave and free, small and great.”"
Revelation 19:17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out in a loud voice to all the birds flying overhead, “Co
me, gather together for the great supper of God,"
Revelation 19:16 And He has a na
me written on His robe and on His thigh: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
Revelation 19:13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and His na
me is The Word of God.
Revelation 19:12 He has eyes like blazing fire, and many royal crowns on His head. He has a na
me written on Him that only He Himself knows.
Revelation 19:11 Then I saw heaven standing open, and there before
me was a white horse. And its rider is called Faithful and True. With righteousness He judges and wages war.

me, “Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers who rely on the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”"
Revelation 19:9 Then the angel told
me to write, “Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to
me, “These are the true words of God.”"

me from the throne, saying: “Praise our God, all you who serve Him, and those who fear Him, small and great alike!”"
Revelation 19:4 And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne, saying: “A
men, Hallelujah!”"
Revelation 19:3 And a second ti
me they called out: “Hallelujah! Her smoke rises forever and ever.”"
Revelation 19:2 For His judg
ments are true and just. He has judged the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her immorality. He has avenged the blood of His servants that was poured out by her hand.”"
Revelation 18:23 The light of a lamp will never shine in you again, and the voices of a bride and bridegroom will never call out in you again. For your
merchants were the great ones of the earth, because all the nations were deceived by your sorcery.”"
Revelation 18:22 And the sound of harpists and musicians, of flute players and trumpeters, will never ring out in you again. Nor will any crafts
men of any trade be found in you again, nor the sound of a millstone be heard in you again.
Revelation 18:20 Rejoice over her, O heaven, O saints and apostles and prophets, because God has pronounced for you His judg
ment against her.
Revelation 18:18 and cry out at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consu
mes her. “What city was ever like this great city?” they will exclaim."
Revelation 18:15 The
merchants who sold these things and grew their wealth from her will stand at a distance, in fear of her tor
ment. They will weep and mourn,
Revelation 18:13 of cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, and frankincense; of wine, olive oil, fine flour, and wheat; of cattle, sheep, horses, and chariots; of slaves and souls of
men.

Revelation 18:9 Then the kings of the earth who committed sexual immorality and lived in luxury with her will weep and wail at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consu
mes her.
Revelation 18:8 Therefore her plagues will co
me in one day—death and grief and famine—and she will be consu

Revelation 18:7 As much as she has glorified herself and lived in luxury, give her the sa
me measure of tor
ment and grief. In her heart she says, ‘I sit as queen; I am not a widow and will never see grief.’"
Revelation 18:5 For her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has re
membered her iniquities.
Revelation 18:4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “Co
me out of her, My people, so that you will not share in her sins or contract any of her plagues."
Revelation 18:3 All the nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her immorality. The kings of the earth were immoral with her, and the
merchants of the earth have grown wealthy from the extravagance of her luxury.”"
Revelation 18:2 And he cried out in a mighty voice: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has beco
me a lair for demons and a haunt for every unclean spirit, every unclean bird, and every detestable beast."
Revelation 17:15 Then the angel said to
me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute was seated, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues."
Revelation 17:10 There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet co
me; but when he does co
me, he must remain for only a little while.
Revelation 17:8 The beast that you saw—it was, and now is no more, but is about to co
me up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. And those who dwell on the earth whose na
mes were not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet will be."
Revelation 17:5 And on her forehead a mysterious na
me was written: BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Revelation 17:3 And the angel carried
me away in the Spirit into a wilderness, where I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous na
mes and had seven heads and ten horns.
Revelation 17:1 Then one of the seven angels with the seven bowls ca
me and said to
me, “Co
me, I will show you the punish
ment of the great prostitute, who sits on many waters."
Revelation 16:21 And great hailstones weighing almost a hundred pounds each rained down on them from above. And
men cursed God for the plague of hail, because it was so horrendous.

membered Babylon the great and gave her the cup of the wine of the fury of His wrath.

me from the throne in the temple, saying, “It is done!”"

men began to gnaw their tongues in anguish
Revelation 16:9 And the people were scorched by intense heat, and they cursed the na
me of God, who had authority over these plagues; yet they did not repent and give Him glory.
Revelation 16:7 And I heard the altar reply: “Yes, Lord God Almighty, true and just are Your judg
ments.”"
Revelation 16:5 And I heard the angel of the waters say: “Righteous are You, O Holy One, who is and was, because You have brought these judg
ments."
Revelation 16:2 So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and loathso
me, malignant sores broke out on those who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.
Revelation 15:6 And out of the temple ca
me the seven angels with the seven plagues, dressed in clean and bright linen and girded with golden sashes around their chests.
Revelation 15:4 Who will not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your na
me? For You alone are holy. All nations will co
me and worship before You, for Your righteous acts have been revealed.”"
♫2 Revelation 15:2 And I saw so
mething like a sea of glass mixed with fire, beside which stood those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its na
me. They were holding harps from God,
Revelation 14:18 Still another angel, with authority over the fire, ca
me from the altar and called out in a loud voice to the angel with the sharp sickle, “Swing your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the vine of the earth, because its grapes are ripe.”"
Revelation 14:17 Then another angel ca
me out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.
Revelation 14:15 Then another angel ca
me out of the temple, crying out in a loud voice to the One seated on the cloud, “Swing Your sickle and reap, because the ti
me has co
me to harvest; for the crop of the earth is ripe.”"
Revelation 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven telling
me to write, “Blessed are the dead—those who die in the Lord from this mo

Revelation 14:12 Here is a call for the perseverance of the saints who keep the command
ments of God and the faith of Jesus.
Revelation 14:11 And the smoke of their tor
ment rises forever and ever. Day and night there is no rest for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its na
me.”"
Revelation 14:10 he too will drink the wine of God’s anger, poured undiluted into the cup of His wrath. And he will be tor
mented in fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb."
Revelation 14:7 And he said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judg
ment has co
me. Worship the One who made the heavens and the earth and the sea and the springs of waters.”"
♫ Revelation 14:4 These are the ones who have not been defiled with wo
men, for they are virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever He goes. They have been redee
med from among
men as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb.
Revelation 14:3 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. And no one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redee
med from the earth.
Revelation 14:1 Then I looked and saw the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000 who had His na
me and His Father’s na

me."
Revelation 13:13 And the second beast perfor
med great signs to cause even fire from heaven to co
me down to earth in the presence of the people.
Revelation 13:8 And all who dwell on the earth will worship the beast—all whose na
mes have not been written from the foundation of the world in the Book of Life belonging to the Lamb who was slain."
Revelation 13:6 And the beast opened its mouth to speak blasphemies against God and to slander His na
me and His tabernacle—those who dwell in heaven."
Revelation 13:1 Then I saw a beast with ten horns and seven heads rising out of the sea. There were ten royal crowns on its horns and blasphemous na
mes on its heads.
Revelation 12:17 And the dragon was enraged at the woman, and went to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the command
ments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus. And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea.
Revelation 12:14 But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle to fly from the presence of the serpent to her place in the wilderness, where she was nourished for a ti
me, and ti
mes, and half a ti
me.
Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea; with great fury the devil has co
me down to you, knowing he has only a short ti
me.”"
Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying: “Now have co
me the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ. For the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down—he who accuses them day and night before our God."
Revelation 11:18 The nations were enraged, and Your wrath has co
me. The ti
me has co
me to judge the dead and to reward Your servants the prophets, as well as the saints and those who fear Your na
me, both small and great—and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”"

me the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign forever and ever.”"
Revelation 11:12 And the witnesses heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Co
me up here.” And they went up to heaven in a cloud as their enemies watched them."

mented them.
Revelation 11:7 When the two witnesses have finished their testimony, the beast that co
mes up from the Abyss will wage war with them, and will overpower and kill them.
Revelation 11:2 But exclude the courtyard outside the temple. Do not
measure it, because it has been given over to the nations, and they will trample the holy city for 42 months.
Revelation 11:1 Then I was given a
measuring rod like a staff and was told, “Go and
measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the number of worshipers there."
Revelation 10:11 And they told
me, “You must prophesy again about many peoples and nations and tongues and kings.”"
Revelation 10:9 And I went to the angel and said, “Give
me the small scroll.” “Take it and eat it,” he said. “It will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.”"

me again, saying, “Go, take the small scroll that lies open in the hand of the angel standing on the sea and on the land.”"

men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, but death will escape them.
Revelation 9:5 The locusts were not given power to kill them, but only to tor

me and will not delay."
Hebrews 10:33 So
meti
mes you were publicly exposed to ridicule and persecution; at other ti
mes you were partners with those who were so treated.
Hebrews 10:32 Re
member the early days that you were in the light. In those days, you endured a great conflict in the face of suffering.
Hebrews 10:28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without
mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
Hebrews 10:27 but only a fearful expectation of judg
ment and of raging fire that will consu
me all adversaries.
Hebrews 10:25 Let us not neglect
meeting together, as so
me have made a habit, but let us encourage one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
Hebrews 10:17 Then He adds: “Their sins and lawless acts I will re
member no more.”"
Hebrews 10:14 because by a single offering He has made perfect for all ti
me those who are being sanctified.
Hebrews 10:13 Since that ti
me, He waits for His enemies to be made a footstool for His feet,
Hebrews 10:12 But when this Priest had offered for all ti
me one sacrifice for sins, He sat down at the right hand of God.
Hebrews 10:11 Day after day every priest stands to minister and to offer again and again the sa
me sacrifices, which can never take away sins.
Hebrews 10:9 Then He adds, “Here I am, I have co
me to do Your will.” He takes away the first to establish the second."
Hebrews 10:7 Then I said, ‘Here I am, it is written about
Me in the scroll: I have co
me to do Your will, O God.’”"
Hebrews 10:5 Therefore, when Christ ca
me into the world, He said: “Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You prepared for
Me."
Hebrews 10:1 For the law is only a shadow of the good things to co
me, not the realities themselves. It can never, by the sa
me sacrifices offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.
Hebrews 9:28 so also Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many; and He will appear a second ti
me, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who eagerly await Him.
Hebrews 9:27 Just as man is appointed to die once, and after that to face judg
ment,
Hebrews 9:21 In the sa
me way, he sprinkled with blood the tabernacle and all the vessels used in worship.
Hebrews 9:19 For when Moses had proclai
med every command
ment of the law to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, along with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled the scroll and all the people,
Hebrews 9:15 Therefore Christ is the
mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, now that He has died to redeem them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.
Hebrews 9:11 But when Christ ca
me as high priest of the good things that have co
me, He went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made by hands and is not a part of this creation.
Hebrews 9:10 They consist only in food and drink and special washings—external regulations imposed until the ti
me of reform."
Hebrews 9:9 It is an illustration for the present ti
me, because the gifts and sacrifices being offered were unable to cleanse the conscience of the worshiper.
Hebrews 9:8 By this arrange
ment the Holy Spirit was showing that the way into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still standing.
Hebrews 9:5 Above the ark were the cherubim of glory, overshadowing the
mercy seat. But we cannot discuss these things in detail now.
Hebrews 8:12 For I will forgive their iniquities and will re
member their sins no more.”"
Hebrews 8:11 No longer will each one teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know
Me, from the least of them to the greatest."
Hebrews 8:6 Now, however, Jesus has received a much more excellent ministry, just as the covenant He
mediates is better and is founded on better promises.
Hebrews 8:3 And since every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices, it was necessary for this One also to have so
mething to offer.
Hebrews 7:28 For the law appoints as high priests
men who are weak; but the oath, which ca
me after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever.
Hebrews 7:22 Because of this oath, Jesus has beco
me the guarantee of a better covenant.
Hebrews 7:21 but Jesus beca
me a priest with an oath by the One who said to Him: “The Lord has sworn and will not change His mind: ‘You are a priest forever.’”"
Hebrews 7:20 And none of this happened without an oath. For others beca
me priests without an oath,
Hebrews 7:18 So the for
mer command
ment is set aside because it was weak and useless
Hebrews 7:17 For it is testified: “You are a priest forever in the order of
Melchizedek.”"
Hebrews 7:16 one who has beco
me a priest not by a law of succession, but by the power of an indestructible life.
Hebrews 7:15 And this point is even more clear if another priest like
Melchizedek appears,
Hebrews 7:11 Now if perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on this basis the people received the law), why was there still need for another priest to appear—one in the order of
Melchizedek and not in the order of Aaron?"
Hebrews 7:10 For when
Melchizedek
met Abraham, Levi was still in the loin of his ancestor.
Hebrews 7:8 In the case of the Levites, mortal
men collect the tenth; but in the case of
Melchizedek, it is affir
med that he lives on.
Hebrews 7:6 But
Melchizedek, who did not trace his descent from Levi, collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.
Hebrews 7:5 Now the law commands the sons of Levi who beco
me priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, from their brothers—though they too are descended from Abraham."
Hebrews 7:4 Consider how great
Melchizedek was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder.
Hebrews 7:3 Without father or mother or genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God, he remains a priest for all ti
me.
Hebrews 7:2 and Abraham apportioned to him a tenth of everything. First, his na
me means “king of righteousness.” Then also, “king of Salem”
means “king of peace.”"
Hebrews 7:1 This
Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He
met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,
Hebrews 6:20 where Jesus our forerunner has entered on our behalf. He has beco
me a high priest forever in the order of
Melchizedek.
♫ Hebrews 6:16 Men swear by so
meone greater than themselves, and their oath serves as a confirmation to end all argu
ment.
Hebrews 6:11 We want each of you to show this sa
me diligence to the very end, in order to make your hope sure.
Hebrews 6:10 For God is not unjust. He will not forget your work and the love you have shown for His na
me as you have ministered to the saints and continue to do so.
Hebrews 6:6 and then have fallen away—to be restored to repentance, because they themselves are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting Him to open sha
me."
Hebrews 6:2 instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judg
ment.
Hebrews 6:1 Therefore let us leave the ele
mentary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith in God,
Hebrews 5:13 For everyone who lives on milk is still an infant, inexperienced in the
message of righteousness.
Hebrews 5:12 Although by this ti
me you ought to be teachers, you need so
meone to reteach you the basic principles of God’s word. You need milk, not solid food!"
Hebrews 5:10 and was designated by God as high priest in the order of
Melchizedek.
Hebrews 5:9 And having been made perfect, He beca
me the source of eternal salvation to all who obey Him
Hebrews 5:6 And in another passage God says: “You are a priest forever in the order of
Melchizedek.”"
Hebrews 5:5 So also Christ did not take upon Himself the glory of becoming a high priest, but He was called by the One who said to Him: “You are My Son; today I have beco
me Your Father.”"
Hebrews 5:1 Every high priest is appointed from among
men to represent them in matters relating to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.
Hebrews 4:16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive
mercy and find grace to help us in our ti
me of need.
♫ Hebrews 4:11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the sa
me pattern of disobedience.
Hebrews 4:7 God again designated a certain day as “Today,” when a long ti
me later He spoke through David as was just stated: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.”"
Hebrews 4:6 Since, then, it remains for so
me to enter His rest, and since those who for
merly heard the good news did not enter because of their disobedience,
Hebrews 4:4 For so
mewhere He has spoken about the seventh day in this manner: “And on the seventh day God rested from all His works.”"
Hebrews 4:2 For we also received the good news just as they did; but the
message they heard was of no value to them, since they did not share the faith of those who comprehended it.
Hebrews 4:1 Therefore, while the promise of entering His rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be dee
med to have fallen short of it.
Hebrews 3:14 We have co
me to share in Christ if we hold firmly to the end the assurance we had at first.
Hebrews 3:9 where your fathers tested and tried
Me, and for forty years saw My works.
Hebrews 3:4 And every house is built by so
meone, but God is the builder of everything.
Hebrews 2:17 For this reason He had to be made like His brothers in every way, so that He might beco
me a
merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, in order to make atone
ment for the sins of the people.
Hebrews 2:13 And again: “I will put My trust in Him.” And once again: “Here am I, and the children God has given
Me.”"
Hebrews 2:12 He says: “I will proclaim Your na
me to My brothers; I will sing Your praises in the assembly.”"
Hebrews 2:11 For both the One who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are of the sa
me family. So Jesus is not asha
med to call them brothers.
Hebrews 2:6 But so
mewhere it is testified in these words: “What is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him?"
Hebrews 2:5 For it is not to angels that He has subjected the world to co
me, about which we are speaking.
Hebrews 2:4 and was affir
med by God through signs, wonders, various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to His will.
Hebrews 2:3 how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? This salvation was first announced by the Lord, was confir
med to us by those who heard Him,
Hebrews 2:2 For if the
message spoken by angels was binding, and every transgression and disobedience received its just punish
ment,
Hebrews 1:12 You will roll them up like a robe; like a gar
ment they will be changed; but You remain the sa
me, and Your years will never end.”"
Hebrews 1:11 They will perish, but You remain; they will all wear out like a gar
ment.
Hebrews 1:7 Now about the angels He says: “He makes His angels winds, His servants fla
mes of fire.”"
Hebrews 1:5 For to which of the angels did God ever say: “You are My Son; today I have beco
me Your Father”? Or again: “I will be His Father, and He will be My Son”?"
Hebrews 1:4 So He beca
me as far superior to the angels as the na
me He has inherited is excellent beyond theirs.
♫ Philemon 1:22 In the
meanti

me, because I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.
Philemon 1:20 Yes, brother, let
me have so
me benefit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.
Philemon 1:19 I, Paul, write this with my own hand. I will repay it—not to
mention that you owe
me your very self."
Philemon 1:17 So if you consider
me a partner, receive him as you would receive
me.
Philemon 1:16 no longer as a slave, but better than a slave, as a beloved brother. He is especially beloved to
me, but even more so to you, both in person and in the Lord.
Philemon 1:13 I would have liked to keep him with
me, so that on your behalf he could minister to
me in my chains for the gospel.
Philemon 1:11 For
merly he was useless to you, but now he has beco
me useful both to you and to
me.
Philemon 1:10 I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whose father I beca

Philemon 1:7 I take great joy and encourage

Philemon 1:6 I pray that your partnership in the faith may beco

Philemon 1:4 I always thank my God, re
membering you in my prayers,
Philemon 1:2 to Apphia our sister, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church that
meets at your house:
Titus 3:15 All who are with
me send you greetings. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with all of you.
Titus 3:14 And our people must also learn to devote themselves to good works in order to
meet the pressing needs of others, so that they will not be unfruitful.
Titus 3:12 As soon as I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, make every effort to co
me to

Titus 3:9 But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, argu

Titus 3:7 so that, having been justified by His grace, we would beco

Titus 3:5 He saved us, not by the righteous deeds we had done, but according to His
mercy, through the washing of new birth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
♫ Titus 3:3 For at one ti

Titus 2:9 Slaves are to submit to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not argu

Titus 2:6 In the sa

men to be self-controlled.
Titus 2:4 In this way they can train the young wo

Titus 2:3 Older wo

Titus 2:2 Older

Titus 1:14 and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the commands of

Titus 1:6 An elder must be bla

Titus 1:2 in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before ti

2 Timothy 4:21 Make every effort to co

2 Timothy 4:18 And the Lord will rescue
me from every evil action and bring
me safely into His heavenly kingdom. To Him be the glory forever and ever. A
men.
2 Timothy 4:17 But the Lord stood by
me and strengthened
me, so that through
me the
message would be fully proclai

2 Timothy 4:16 At my first defense, no one stood with
me, but everyone deserted
me. May it not be charged against them.
2 Timothy 4:15 You too should beware of him, for he has vigorously opposed our
message.
2 Timothy 4:14 Alexander the coppersmith did great harm to
me. The Lord will repay him according to his deeds.
2 Timothy 4:13 When you co

2 Timothy 4:11 Only Luke is with
me. Get Mark and bring him with you, because he is useful to
me in the ministry.
2 Timothy 4:10 because Demas, in his love of this world, has deserted
me and gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia.
2 Timothy 4:8 From now on there is laid up for
me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to
me on that day—and not only to
me, but to all who crave His appearing."
2 Timothy 4:6 For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the ti

2 Timothy 4:3 For the ti

2 Timothy 3:13 while evil

2 Timothy 3:11 my persecutions, and the sufferings that ca

me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. What persecutions I endured! Yet the Lord rescued
me from all of them.
2 Timothy 3:8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these
men oppose the truth. They are depraved in mind and disqualified from the faith.
2 Timothy 3:7 who are always learning but never able to co
me to a knowledge of the truth.
♫ 2 Timothy 3:6 They are the kind who worm their way into households and captivate vulnerable wo

♫ 2 Timothy 3:2 For
men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy,
2 Timothy 3:1 But understand this: In the last days terrible ti

2 Timothy 2:26 Then they will co

2 Timothy 2:24 And a servant of the Lord must not be quarrelso

2 Timothy 2:20 A large house contains not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay. So

2 Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless, God’s firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Everyone who calls on the na

2 Timothy 2:18 who have deviated from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already occurred, and they undermine the faith of so

2 Timothy 2:17 and the talk of such

2 Timothy 2:15 Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unasha

2 Timothy 2:8 Re

2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that you have heard
me say among many witnesses, entrust these to faithful
men who will be qualified to teach others as well.
2 Timothy 1:18 May the Lord grant Onesiphorus His
mercy on that day. You know very well how much he ministered to
me in Ephesus.
2 Timothy 1:17 Indeed, when he arrived in Ro

me.
2 Timothy 1:16 May the Lord grant
mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he has often refreshed
me and was unasha

2 Timothy 1:15 You know that everyone in the Province of Asia has deserted

2 Timothy 1:13 Hold on to the pattern of sound teaching you have heard from
me, with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
2 Timothy 1:12 For this reason, even though I suffer as I do, I am not asha

2 Timothy 1:9 He has saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works, but by His own purpose and by the grace He granted us in Christ Jesus before ti

2 Timothy 1:8 So do not be asha

me in suffering for the gospel by the power of God.
2 Timothy 1:6 For this reason I remind you to fan into fla

2 Timothy 1:3 I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience as did my forefathers, as I constantly re

1 Timothy 6:14 Keep this command

1 Timothy 5:24 The sins of so

1 Timothy 5:23 Stop drinking only water and use a little wine instead, because of your stomach and your frequent ail

1 Timothy 5:13 At the sa

1 Timothy 5:2 older wo

1 Timothy 4:8 For physical exercise is of limited value, but godliness is valuable in every way, holding promise for the present life and for the one to co

1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit expressly states that in later ti

1 Timothy 3:16 By common confession, the mystery of godliness is great: He appeared in the flesh, was vindicated by the Spirit, was seen by angels, was proclai

1 Timothy 3:14 Although I hope to co

1 Timothy 3:11 In the sa

1 Timothy 3:6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may beco

1 Timothy 3:5 For if so

1 Timothy 2:15 Wo

♫ 1 Timothy 1:15 This is a trustworthy saying, worthy of full acceptance: Christ Jesus ca

♫2 1 Timothy 1:14 And the grace of our Lord overflowed to

1 Timothy 1:13 I was for
merly a blasphe

mercy.
1 Timothy 1:12 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened

2 Thessalonians 1:5 All this is clear evidence of God’s righteous judg

2 Thessalonians 1:3 We are obligated to thank God for you all the ti

1 Thessalonians 5:23 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your entire spirit, soul, and body be kept bla

1 Thessalonians 5:8 But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and the hel

1 Thessalonians 4:17 After that, we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to

1 Thessalonians 3:6 But just now, Timothy has returned from his visit with the good news about your faith, your love, and the fond
memories you have preserved, longing to see us just as we long to see you.
1 Thessalonians 3:5 For this reason, when I could bear it no longer, I sent to find out about your faith, for fear that the tempter had so
mehow tempted you and caused our labor to be in vain.
1 Thessalonians 3:4 Indeed, when we were with you, we kept warning you that we would suffer persecution; and as you know, it has co
me to pass.
1 Thessalonians 2:18 For we wanted to co

1 Thessalonians 2:17 Brothers, although we were torn away from you for a short ti

1 Thessalonians 2:16 hindering us from telling the Gentiles how they may be saved. As a result, they continue to heap up their sins to full capacity; the utmost wrath has co

1 Thessalonians 2:15 who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and drove us out as well. They are displeasing to God and hostile to all
men,
1 Thessalonians 2:14 For you, brothers, beca

men the very things they suffered from the Jews,
1 Thessalonians 2:13 And we continually thank God because, when you received the word of God that you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of
men, but as the true word of God—the word which is now at work in you who believe."
1 Thessalonians 2:10 You are witnesses, and so is God, of how holy, righteous, and bla

1 Thessalonians 2:9 Surely you recall, brothers, our labor and toil. We worked night and day so that we would not be a burden to anyone while we proclai

1 Thessalonians 2:8 We cared so deeply that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God, but our own lives as well. That is how beloved you have beco

1 Thessalonians 2:4 Instead, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, not in order to please
men but God, who examines our hearts.
1 Thessalonians 2:2 As you are aware, we had already endured suffering and sha

1 Thessalonians 1:9 For they themselves report what kind of welco

1 Thessalonians 1:8 For not only did the
message of the Lord ring out from you to Macedonia and Achaia, but your faith in God has gone out to every place, so that we have no need to say anything more.
1 Thessalonians 1:7 As a result, you have beco

Colossians 2:19 He has lost connection to the head, from whom the whole body, supported and knit together by its joints and liga

Colossians 2:17 These are a shadow of the things to co

Colossians 2:15 And having disar

Philippians 4:21 Greet all the saints in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with
me send you greetings.
Philippians 4:15 And as you Philippians know, in the early days of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church but you partnered with
me in the matter of giving and receiving.
Philippians 4:12 I know how to live humbly, and I know how to abound. I am accusto

♫2 Philippians 4:10 Now I rejoice greatly in the Lord that at last you have revived your concern for
me. You were indeed concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it.
Philippians 4:9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from
me, or seen in
me, put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
Philippians 4:3 Yes, and I ask you, my true yokefellow, to help these wo
men who have labored with
me for the gospel, along with Cle
ment and the rest of my fellow workers, whose na
mes are in the Book of Life.
Philippians 3:19 Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and their glory is in their sha
me. Their minds are set on earthly things.
Philippians 3:15 All of us who are mature should embrace this point of view. And if you think differently about so
me issue, God will reveal this to you as well.
Philippians 3:12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of
me.
Philippians 3:10 I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being confor

♫3 Philippians 3:7 But whatever was gain to
me I count as loss for the sake of Christ.
Philippians 3:1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. It is no trouble for
me to write the sa

Philippians 2:30 because he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to make up for your deficit of service to
me.
Philippians 2:29 Welco
me him in the Lord with great joy, and honor
men like him,
Philippians 2:27 He was sick indeed, nearly unto death. But God had
mercy on him, and not only on him but also on
me, to spare
me sorrow upon sorrow.
Philippians 2:25 But I thought it necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier, who is also your
messenger and minister to my needs.
Philippians 2:22 But you know Timothy’s proven worth, that as a child with his father he has served with
me to advance the gospel."
Philippians 2:15 so that you may be bla

Philippians 2:10 that at the na

♫ Philippians 2:6 Who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God so

♫ Philippians 2:2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the sa

Philippians 2:1 Therefore if you have any encourage

Philippians 1:30 since you are encountering the sa

Philippians 1:27 Nevertheless, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I co
me and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending side by side for the faith of the gospel,
Philippians 1:26 so that through my coming to you again your exultation in Christ Jesus will resound on account of
me.
Philippians 1:22 But if I go on living in the body, this will
mean fruitful labor for
me. So what shall I choose? I do not know.
Philippians 1:20 I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be asha
med, but will have complete boldness so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.
Philippians 1:17 The for
mer, however, preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can add to the distress of my chains.
Philippians 1:15 It is true that so
me preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill.
Philippians 1:13 As a result, it has beco

Philippians 1:11 filled with the fruit of righteousness that co

♫ Philippians 1:10 so that you may be able to test and prove what is best and may be pure and bla

me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart. For in my chains and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel, you are all partners in grace with

Ephesians 4:11 And it was He who gave so

me: to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
Ephesians 3:7 I beca

Ephesians 3:6 This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are fellow heirs, fellow

Ephesians 3:5 which was not made known to

Galatians 6:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. A
men.
Galatians 6:17 From now on let no one cause
me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.
Galatians 6:16 Peace and
mercy to all who walk by this rule, even to the Israel of God.
Galatians 6:15 For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision
means anything. What counts is a new creation.
Galatians 6:14 But as for
me, may I never boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to
me, and I to the world.
♫ Galatians 6:9 Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due ti
me we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
♫2 Galatians 6:4 Each one should test his own work. Then he will have reason to boast in himself alone, and not in so
meone else.
Galatians 6:3 If anyone thinks he is so
mething when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
Galatians 6:1 Brothers, if so
meone is caught in a trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him with a spirit of gentleness. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted.
Galatians 5:26 Let us not beco
me conceited, provoking and envying one another.
♫ Galatians 5:15 But if you keep on biting and devouring one another, watch out, or you will be consu
med by one another.
♫ Galatians 5:10 I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judg
ment, whoever he may be.
Galatians 5:8 Such persuasion does not co
me from the One who calls you.
Galatians 4:29 At that ti
me, however, the son born by the flesh persecuted the son born by the Spirit. It is the sa
me now.
Galatians 4:24 These things serve as illustrations, for the wo
men represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children into slavery: This is Hagar.
Galatians 4:21 Tell
me, you who want to be under the law, do you not understand what the law says?
Galatians 4:19 My children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is for
med in you,
Galatians 4:18 Nevertheless, it is good to be zealous if it serves a noble purpose—at any ti
me, and not only when I am with you."
Galatians 4:15 What then has beco
me of your blessing? For I can testify that, if it were possible, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to
me.
Galatians 4:14 And although my illness was a trial to you, you did not despise or reject
me. Instead, you welco
med
me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus Himself.
Galatians 4:12 I beg you, brothers, beco
me like
me, for I beca
me like you. You have done
me no wrong.
Galatians 4:8 For
merly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.
Galatians 4:4 But when the ti
me had fully co
me, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,
♫ Galatians 3:25 Now that faith has co
me, we are no longer under a guardian.
♫ Galatians 3:24 So the law beca
me our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
♫ Galatians 3:23 Before this faith ca
me, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until faith should be revealed.
Galatians 3:21 Is the law, then, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have co
me from the law.
Galatians 3:20 A
mediator is unnecessary, however, for only one party; but God is one.
Galatians 3:19 Why then was the law given? It was added because of transgressions, until the arrival of the seed to whom the promise referred. It was administered through angels by a
mediator.
Galatians 3:17 What I
mean is this: The law that ca
me 430 years later does not revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to nullify the promise.
Galatians 3:16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,”
meaning many, but “and to your seed,”
meaning One, who is Christ."
Galatians 3:15 Brothers, let
me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or a
mended.
Galatians 3:14 He redee
med us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would co
me to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
Galatians 3:13 Christ redee
med us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”"
Galatians 2:21 I do not set aside the grace of God. For if righteousness co
mes through the law, Christ died for nothing.
Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in
me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved
me and gave Himself up for
me.
♫3 Galatians 2:12 For before certain
men ca
me from Ja
mes, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself, for fear of those in the circumcision group.
Galatians 2:11 When Cephas ca
me to Antioch, however, I opposed him to his face, because he stood to be condemned.
Galatians 2:10 They only asked us to re
member the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.
Galatians 2:9 And recognizing the grace that I had been given, Ja
mes, Cephas, and John—those reputed to be pillars—gave
me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised."
Galatians 2:6 But as for the highly estee
med—whatever they were makes no difference to
me; God does not show favoritism—those leaders added nothing to
me."
Galatians 2:5 We did not give in to them for a mo
ment, so that the truth of the gospel would remain with you.
Galatians 2:4 This issue arose because so
me false brothers had co
me in under false pretenses to spy on our freedom in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us.
Galatians 2:3 Yet not even Titus, who was with
me, was compelled to be circumcised, even though he was a Greek.
Galatians 1:23 They only heard the account: “The man who for
merly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”"
Galatians 1:19 But I saw none of the other apostles except Ja
mes, the Lord’s brother."
Galatians 1:17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles who ca
me before
me, but I went into Arabia and later returned to Damascus.
Galatians 1:16 to reveal His Son in
me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not rush to consult with flesh and blood,
Galatians 1:15 But when God, who set
me apart from my mother’s womb and called
me by His grace, was pleased"
Galatians 1:14 I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries and was extre
mely zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
Galatians 1:13 For you have heard of my for
mer way of life in Judaism, how severely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it.
Galatians 1:10 Am I now seeking the approval of
men, or of God? Or am I striving to please
men? If I were still trying to please
men, I would not be a servant of Christ.
♫ Galatians 1:7 which is not even a gospel. Evidently so
me people are troubling you and trying to distort the gospel of Christ.
Galatians 1:2 and all the brothers with
me, To the churches of Galatia:
Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle—sent not from
men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead—"
2 Corinthians 13:10 This is why I write these things while absent, so that when I am present I will not need to be severe in my use of the authority that the Lord gave
me for building you up, not for tearing you down.
2 Corinthians 13:3 since you are demanding proof that Christ is speaking through
me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful among you.
2 Corinthians 13:2 I already warned you the second ti
me I was with you. So now in my absence I warn those who sinned earlier and everyone else: If I return, I will not spare anyone,
2 Corinthians 13:1 This is the third ti
me I am coming to you. “Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.”"
2 Corinthians 12:21 I am afraid that when I co
me again, my God will humble
me before you, and I will be grieved over many who have sinned earlier and have not repented of their acts of impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery.
2 Corinthians 12:20 For I am afraid that when I co
me, I may not find you as I wish, and you may not find
me as you wish. I fear that there may be quarreling, jealousy, rage, rivalry, slander, gossip, arrogance, and disorder.
2 Corinthians 12:18 I urged Titus to visit you, and I sent our brother with him. Did Titus exploit you in any way? Did we not walk in the sa

2 Corinthians 12:15 And for the sake of your souls, I will most gladly spend my money and myself. If I love you more, will you love
me less?
2 Corinthians 12:14 See, I am ready to co
me to you a third ti
me, and I will not be a burden, because I am not seeking your possessions, but you. For children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.
2 Corinthians 12:13 In what way were you inferior to the other churches, except that I was not a burden to you? Forgive
me this wrong!
2 Corinthians 12:12 The true marks of an apostle—signs, wonders, and miracles—were perfor
med among you with great perseverance."
2 Corinthians 12:11 I have beco
me a fool, but you drove
me to it. In fact, you should have com
mended
me, since I am in no way inferior to those “super-apostles,” even though I am nothing."
2 Corinthians 12:9 But He said to
me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on
me."
♫2 2 Corinthians 12:7 or because of these surpassingly great revelations. So to keep
me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a
messenger of Satan, to tor
ment
me.
2 Corinthians 12:6 Even if I wanted to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will credit
me with more than he sees in
me or hears from
me,
2 Corinthians 11:32 In Damascus, the governor under King Aretas secured the city of the Damascenes in order to arrest
me.
2 Corinthians 11:26 In my frequent journeys, I have been in danger from rivers and from bandits, in danger from my country
men and from the Gentiles, in danger in the city and in the country, in danger on the sea and among false brothers,
2 Corinthians 11:25 Three ti
mes I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three ti
mes I was shipwrecked. I spent a night and a day in the open sea.
2 Corinthians 11:23 Are they servants of Christ? I am speaking like I am out of my mind, but I am so much more: in harder labor, in more imprison
ments, in worse beatings, in frequent danger of death.
2 Corinthians 11:21 To my sha
me I concede that we were too weak for that! Speaking as a fool, however, I can match what anyone else dares to boast about.
2 Corinthians 11:16 I repeat: Let no one take
me for a fool. But if you do, then receive
me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.
2 Corinthians 11:13 For such
men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ.
2 Corinthians 11:10 As surely as the truth of Christ is in
me, this boasting of mine will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia.
2 Corinthians 11:9 And when I was with you and in need, I was not a burden to anyone; for the brothers who ca
me from Macedonia supplied my needs. I have refrained from being a burden to you in any way, and I will continue to do so.
2 Corinthians 11:7 Was it a sin for
me to humble myself in order to exalt you, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge?
2 Corinthians 11:4 For if so
meone co
mes and proclaims a Jesus other than the One we proclai
med, or if you receive a different spirit than the One you received, or a different gospel than the one you accepted, you put up with it way too easily.
2 Corinthians 10:18 For it is not the one who com
mends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord com
mends.
2 Corinthians 10:14 We are not overstepping our bounds, as if we had not co
me to you. Indeed, we were the first to reach you with the gospel of Christ.
2 Corinthians 10:12 We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with so
me who com
mend themselves. When they
measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they show their ignorance.
2 Corinthians 10:10 For so
me say, “His letters are weighty and forceful, but his physical presence is unimpressive, and his speaking is of no account.”"
2 Corinthians 10:8 For even if I boast so
mewhat excessively about the authority the Lord gave us for building you up rather than tearing you down, I will not be asha
med.
2 Corinthians 10:5 We tear down argu
ments and every presumption set up against the knowledge of God; and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
♫ 2 Corinthians 10:2 I beg you that when I co
me I may not need to be as bold as I expect toward those who presu
me that we live according to the flesh.
2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things, at all ti
mes, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.
♫ 2 Corinthians 9:6 Re
member this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.
2 Corinthians 9:5 So I thought it necessary to urge the brothers to visit you beforehand and make arrange
ments for the bountiful gift you had promised. This way, your gift will be prepared generously and not begrudgingly.
2 Corinthians 9:4 Otherwise, if any Macedonians co
me with
me and find you unprepared, we—to say nothing of you—would be asha
med of having been so confident."
2 Corinthians 9:1 Now about the service to the saints, there is no need for
me to write to you.
2 Corinthians 8:24 In full view of the churches, then, show these
men the proof of your love and the reason for our boasting about you.
2 Corinthians 8:23 As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker among you. As for our brothers, they are
messengers of the churches, to the glory of Christ.
2 Corinthians 8:22 And we are sending along with them our brother whose earnestness has been proven many ti
mes and in many ways, and now even more so by his great confidence in you.
2 Corinthians 8:21 For we are taking great care to do what is right, not only in the eyes of the Lord, but also in the eyes of
men.
2 Corinthians 8:17 For not only did he welco
me our appeal, but he is eagerly coming to you of his own volition.
2 Corinthians 8:16 But thanks be to God, who put into the heart of Titus the sa
me devotion I have for you.
2 Corinthians 8:14 At the present ti
me, your surplus will
meet their need, so that in turn their surplus will
meet your need. Then there will be equality.
2 Corinthians 8:11 Now finish the work, so that you may complete it just as eagerly as you began, according to your
means.
2 Corinthians 8:9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He beca
me poor, so that you through His poverty might beco
me rich.
♫ 2 Corinthians 7:15 And his affection for you is even greater when he re
members that you were all obedient as you welco
med him with fear and trembling.
2 Corinthians 7:13 On account of this, we are encouraged. In addition to our own encourage
ment, we were even more delighted by the joy of Titus. For his spirit has been refreshed by all of you.
2 Corinthians 7:12 So even though I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did wrong or the one who was har
med, but rather that your earnestness on our behalf would be made clear to you in the sight of God.
2 Corinthians 7:9 And now I rejoice, not because you were made sorrowful, but because your sorrow led you to repentance. For you felt the sorrow that God had intended, and so were not har
med in any way by us.
2 Corinthians 7:8 Even if I caused you sorrow by my letter, I do not regret it. Although I did regret it, I now see that my letter caused you sorrow, but only for a short ti
me.
2 Corinthians 7:7 and not only by his arrival, but also by the comfort he had received from you. He told us about your longing, your mourning, and your zeal for
me, so that I rejoiced all the more.
2 Corinthians 7:4 Great is my confidence in you; great is my pride in you; I am filled with encourage
ment; in all our troubles my joy overflows.
2 Corinthians 6:17 “Therefore co
me out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.”"
2 Corinthians 6:16 What agree
ment can exist between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.”"
2 Corinthians 6:5 in beatings, imprison
ments, and riots; in labor, sleepless nights, and hunger;
2 Corinthians 6:4 Rather, as servants of God we com
mend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships, and calamities;
2 Corinthians 6:2 For He says: “In the ti
me of favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” Behold, now is the ti
me of favor; now is the day of salvation!"
2 Corinthians 5:21 God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might beco
me the righteousness of God.
♫2 2 Corinthians 5:19 that God was reconciling the world to Himself in Christ, not counting
men’s trespasses against them. And He has committed to us the
message of reconciliation."
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has co
me!
♫2 2 Corinthians 5:12 We are not com
mending ourselves to you again. Instead, we are giving you an occasion to be proud of us, so that you can answer those who take pride in appearances rather than in the heart.
2 Corinthians 5:11 Therefore, since we know what it
means to fear the Lord, we try to persuade
men. What we are is clear to God, and I hope it is clear to your conscience as well.
2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judg
ment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad.
2 Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, then, and would prefer to be away from the body and at ho
me with the Lord.
2 Corinthians 5:6 Therefore we are always confident, although we know that while we are at ho
me in the body, we are away from the Lord.
2 Corinthians 5:5 And God has prepared us for this very purpose and has given us the Spirit as a pledge of what is to co
me.
2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light and mo
mentary affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory that is far beyond comparison.
♫ 2 Corinthians 4:13 And in keeping with what is written: “I believed, therefore I have spoken,” we who have the sa
me spirit of faith also believe and therefore speak,"
2 Corinthians 4:2 Instead, we have renounced secret and sha
meful ways. We do not practice deceit, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by open proclamation of the truth, we com
mend ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God."
2 Corinthians 4:1 Therefore, since God in His
mercy has given us this ministry, we do not lose heart.
2 Corinthians 3:18 And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the glory of the Lord, are being transfor
med into His image with intensifying glory, which co
mes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
2 Corinthians 3:14 But their minds were closed. For to this day the sa
me veil remains at the reading of the old covenant. It has not been lifted, because only in Christ can it be removed.
2 Corinthians 3:11 For if what was fading away ca
me with glory, how much greater is the glory of that which endures!
2 Corinthians 3:7 Now if the ministry of death, which was engraved in letters on stone, ca
me with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at the face of Moses because of its fleeting glory,
2 Corinthians 3:5 Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim that anything co
mes from us, but our competence co
mes from God.
2 Corinthians 3:1 Are we beginning to com
mend ourselves again? Or do we need, like so
me people, letters of recom
mendation to you or from you?
2 Corinthians 2:17 For we are not like so many others, who peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, as
men sent from God.
2 Corinthians 2:12 Now when I went to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ and a door stood open for
me in the Lord,
2 Corinthians 2:11 in order that Satan should not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his sche
mes.
2 Corinthians 2:7 So instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhel
med by excessive sorrow.
2 Corinthians 2:6 The punish
ment imposed on him by the majority is sufficient for him.
2 Corinthians 2:5 Now if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved
me but all of you—to so
me degree, not to overstate it."
2 Corinthians 2:3 I wrote as I did so that on my arrival I would not be saddened by those who ought to make
me rejoice. I had confidence in all of you, that you would share my joy.
2 Corinthians 2:2 For if I grieve you, who is left to cheer
me but those whom I have grieved?
2 Corinthians 1:22 placed His seal on us, and put His Spirit in our hearts as a pledge of what is to co
me.
2 Corinthians 1:20 For all the promises of God are “Yes” in Christ. And so through Him, our “A
men” is spoken to the glory of God."
2 Corinthians 1:19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was proclai
med among you by
me and Silvanus and Timothy, was not “Yes” and “No,” but in Him it has always been “Yes.”"
2 Corinthians 1:18 But as surely as God is faithful, our
message to you is not “Yes” and “No.”"
2 Corinthians 1:17 When I planned this, did I do it carelessly? Or do I make my plans by human standards, so as to say “Yes, yes” when I really
mean “No, no”?"
2 Corinthians 1:16 I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedonia, and to return to you from Macedonia, and then to have you help
me on my way to Judea.
2 Corinthians 1:6 If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which accomplishes in you patient endurance of the sa
me sufferings we experience.
1 Corinthians 16:19 The churches in the province of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Prisca greet you warmly in the Lord, and so does the church that
meets at their house.
1 Corinthians 16:18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours as well. Show your appreciation, therefore, to such
men.
1 Corinthians 16:11 No one, then, should treat him with contempt. Send him on his way in peace so that he can return to
me, for I am expecting him along with the brothers.
1 Corinthians 16:10 If Timothy co
mes, see to it that he has nothing to fear while he is with you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, just as I am.
1 Corinthians 16:9 because a great door for effective work has opened to
me, even though many oppose
me.
1 Corinthians 16:7 For I do not want to see you now only in passing; I hope to spend so
me ti
me with you, if the Lord permits.
1 Corinthians 16:6 Perhaps I will stay with you awhile, or even spend the winter, so that you can help
me on my journey, wherever I go.
1 Corinthians 16:5 After I go through Macedonia, however, I will co
me to you; for I will be going through Macedonia.
1 Corinthians 16:3 Then, on my arrival, I will send letters with those you recom
mend to carry your gift to Jerusalem.
1 Corinthians 16:2 On the first day of every week, each of you should set aside a portion of his inco
me, saving it up, so that when I co
me no collections will be needed.
1 Corinthians 15:54 When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will co
me to pass: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”"
♫ 1 Corinthians 15:45 So it is written: “The first man Adam beca
me a living being;” the last Adam a life-giving spirit."
1 Corinthians 15:39 Not all flesh is the sa
me:
Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another, and fish another.
1 Corinthians 15:37 And what you sow is not the body that will be, but just a seed, perhaps of wheat or so
mething else.
1 Corinthians 15:35 But so
meone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they co
me?”"
1 Corinthians 15:34 Sober up as you ought, and stop sinning; for so
me of you are ignorant of God. I say this to your sha
me.
1 Corinthians 15:24 Then the end will co
me, when He hands over the kingdom to God the Father after He has destroyed all dominion, authority, and power.
1 Corinthians 15:21 For since death ca
me through a man, the resurrection of the dead co
mes also through a man.
1 Corinthians 15:19 If our hope in Christ is for this life alone, we are to be pitied more than all
men.
1 Corinthians 15:12 But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can so
me of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
1 Corinthians 15:10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace to
me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with
me."
1 Corinthians 15:6 After that, He appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, most of whom are still living, though so
me have fallen asleep.
1 Corinthians 14:35 If they wish to inquire about so
mething, they are to ask their own husbands at ho
me; for it is dishonorable for a woman to speak in the church.
1 Corinthians 14:34 Wo
men are to be silent in the churches. They are not permitted to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says.
1 Corinthians 14:30 And if a revelation co
mes to so
meone who is seated, the first speaker should stop.
1 Corinthians 14:27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, two, or at most three, should speak in turn, and so
meone must interpret.
1 Corinthians 14:26 What then shall we say, brothers? When you co
me together, everyone has a psalm or a teaching, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. All of these must be done to build up the church.
1 Corinthians 14:24 But if an unbeliever or uninstructed person co
mes in while everyone is prophesying, he will be convicted and called to account by all,
1 Corinthians 14:23 So if the whole church co
mes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and so
me who are uninstructed or so
me unbelievers co
me in, will they not say that you are out of your minds?
1 Corinthians 14:21 It is written in the Law: “By strange tongues and foreign lips I will speak to this people, but even then they will not listen to
Me, says the Lord.”"
1 Corinthians 14:16 Otherwise, if you speak a blessing in spirit, how can so
meone who is uninstructed say “A
men” to your thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying?"
1 Corinthians 14:12 It is the sa
me with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, strive to excel in gifts that build up the church.
1 Corinthians 14:11 If, then, I do not know the
meaning of so
meone’s language, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and he is a foreigner to
me."
1 Corinthians 14:10 Assuredly, there are many different languages in the world, yet none of them is without
meaning.
1 Corinthians 14:7 Even in the case of lifeless instru
ments, such as the flute or harp, how will anyone recognize the tune they are playing unless the notes are distinct?
1 Corinthians 14:6 Now, brothers, if I co
me to you speaking in tongues, how will I benefit you, unless I bring you so
me revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?
1 Corinthians 14:3 But he who prophesies speaks to
men for their edification, encourage
ment, and comfort.
1 Corinthians 14:2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to
men, but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries in the Spirit.
1 Corinthians 13:11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I beca
me a man, I set aside childish ways.
1 Corinthians 13:1 If I speak in the tongues of
men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a ringing gong or a clanging cymbal.
1 Corinthians 12:25 so that there should be no division in the body, but that its
members should have mutual concern for one another.
1 Corinthians 12:18 But in fact, God has arranged the
members of the body, every one of them, according to His design.
1 Corinthians 12:17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of s
mell be?
1 Corinthians 12:11 All these are the work of one and the sa
me Spirit, who apportions them to each one as He determines.
1 Corinthians 12:9 to another faith by the sa
me Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,
1 Corinthians 12:8 To one there is given through the Spirit the
message of wisdom, to another the
message of knowledge by the sa
me Spirit,
1 Corinthians 12:6 There are different ways of working, but the sa
me God works all things in all people.
1 Corinthians 12:1 Now about spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be uninfor
med.
1 Corinthians 11:34 If anyone is hungry, he should eat at ho
me, so that when you co
me together it will not result in judg
ment. And when I co
me, I will give instructions about the remaining matters.
1 Corinthians 11:29 For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judg
ment on himself.
1 Corinthians 11:26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He co
mes."
1 Corinthians 11:25 In the sa
me way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in re
membrance of
Me.”"
1 Corinthians 11:24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in re
membrance of
Me.”"
1 Corinthians 11:22 Don’t you have your own ho
mes in which to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What can I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? No, I will not!"
1 Corinthians 11:21 For as you eat, each of you goes ahead without sharing his
meal. While one remains hungry, another gets drunk.
1 Corinthians 11:18 First of all, I hear that when you co
me together as a church, there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.
1 Corinthians 11:12 For just as woman ca
me from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything co
mes from God.
1 Corinthians 11:6 If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off. And if it is sha
meful for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head.
1 Corinthians 11:2 Now I com
mend you for re
membering
me in everything and for maintaining the traditions, just as I passed them on to you.
1 Corinthians 10:32 Do not beco
me a stumbling block, whether to Jews or Greeks or the church of God—"
1 Corinthians 10:30 If I partake in the
meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?
1 Corinthians 10:29 the other one’s conscience, I
mean, not your own. For why should my freedom be determined by so
meone else’s conscience?"
1 Corinthians 10:28 But if so
meone tells you, “This food was offered to idols,” then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience—"
1 Corinthians 10:27 If an unbeliever invites you to a
meal and you want to go, eat anything set before you without raising questions of conscience.
1 Corinthians 10:25 Eat anything sold in the
meat market without raising questions of conscience,
1 Corinthians 10:11 Now these things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfill
ment of the ages has co
me.
1 Corinthians 10:10 And do not complain, as so
me of them did, and were killed by the destroying angel.
1 Corinthians 10:9 We should not test Christ, as so
me of them did, and were killed by snakes.
1 Corinthians 10:8 We should not commit sexual immorality, as so
me of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died.
1 Corinthians 10:7 Do not be idolaters, as so
me of them were. As it is written: “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and got up to indulge in revelry.”"
1 Corinthians 10:4 and drank the sa
me spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ.
1 Corinthians 9:25 Everyone who competes in the ga
mes trains with strict discipline. They do it for a crown that is perishable, but we do it for a crown that is imperishable.
1 Corinthians 9:22 To the weak I beca
me weak, to win the weak. I have beco
me all things to all people so that by all possible
means I might save so
me.
1 Corinthians 9:21 To those without the law I beca
me like one without the law (though I am not outside the law of God but am under the law of Christ), to win those without the law.
1 Corinthians 9:20 To the Jews I beca
me like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I beca
me like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), to win those under the law.
1 Corinthians 9:16 Yet when I preach the gospel, I have no reason to boast, because I am obligated to preach. Woe to
me if I do not preach the gospel!
1 Corinthians 9:15 But I have not used any of these rights. And I am not writing this to suggest that so
mething be done for
me. Indeed, I would rather die than let anyone nullify my boast.
1 Corinthians 9:14 In the sa
me way, the Lord has prescribed that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel.
1 Corinthians 9:8 Do I say this from a human perspective? Doesn’t the Law say the sa
me thing?"
1 Corinthians 8:13 Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat
meat again, so that I will not cause him to stumble.
1 Corinthians 8:10 For if so
meone with a weak conscience sees you who are well infor
med eating in an idol’s temple, will he not be encouraged to eat food sacrificed to idols?"
1 Corinthians 8:9 Be careful, however, that your freedom does not beco
me a stumbling block to the weak.
1 Corinthians 8:7 But not everyone has this knowledge. So
me people are still so accusto
med to idols that they eat such food as if it were sacrificed to an idol. And since their conscience is weak, it is defiled.
1 Corinthians 8:6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things ca
me and for whom we exist. And there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things ca
me and through whom we exist.
♫ 1 Corinthians 8:2 The one who thinks he knows so
mething does not yet know as he ought to know.
1 Corinthians 7:40 In my judg
ment, however, she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I too have the Spirit of God.
1 Corinthians 7:36 However, if so
meone thinks he is acting inappropriately toward his betrothed, and if she is beyond her youth and they ought to marry, let him do as he wishes; he is not sinning; they should get married.
1 Corinthians 7:29 What I am saying, brothers, is that the ti
me is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they had none;
1 Corinthians 7:27 Are you committed to a wife? Do not seek to be released. Are you free of commit
ment? Do not look for a wife.
1 Corinthians 7:25 Now about virgins, I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judg
ment as one who by the Lord’s
mercy is trustworthy."
1 Corinthians 7:19 Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing. Keeping God’s command
ments is what counts."
1 Corinthians 7:18 Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not beco
me uncircumcised. Was a man still uncircumcised when called? He should not be circumcised.
1 Corinthians 7:7 I wish that all
men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.
1 Corinthians 7:5 Do not deprive each other, except by mutual consent and for a ti
me, so you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then co
me together again, so that Satan will not tempt you through your lack of self-control.
1 Corinthians 6:16 Or don’t you know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will beco
me one flesh.”"
1 Corinthians 6:15 Do you not know that your bodies are
members of Christ? Shall I then take the
members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never!
1 Corinthians 6:12 “Everything is permissible for
me,” but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is permissible for
me,” but I will not be mastered by anything."
1 Corinthians 6:11 And that is what so
me of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified, in the na
me of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
1 Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor
men who submit to or perform homosexual acts,
1 Corinthians 6:7 The very fact that you have lawsuits among you
means that you are thoroughly defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?
1 Corinthians 6:5 I say this to your sha
me. Is there really no one among you wise enough to arbitrate between his brothers?
1 Corinthians 5:4 When you are assembled in the na
me of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, along with the power of the Lord Jesus,
1 Corinthians 5:3 Although I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit, and I have already pronounced judg
ment on the one who did this, just as if I were present.
1 Corinthians 4:21 Which do you prefer? Shall I co
me to you with a rod, or in love and with a gentle spirit?
1 Corinthians 4:19 But I will co
me to you shortly, if the Lord is willing, and then I will find out not only what these arrogant people are saying, but what power they have.
1 Corinthians 4:15 Even if you have ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I beca
me your father through the gospel.
1 Corinthians 4:14 I am not writing this to sha
me you, but to warn you as my beloved children.
1 Corinthians 4:13 when we are slandered, we answer gently. Up to this mo
ment we have beco
me the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world.
1 Corinthians 4:11 To this very hour we are hungry and thirsty, we are poorly clothed, we are brutally treated, we are ho
meless.
1 Corinthians 4:9 For it seems to
me that God has displayed us apostles at the end of the procession, like prisoners appointed for death. We have beco
me a spectacle to the whole world, to angels as well as to
men.
1 Corinthians 4:8 Already you have all you want. Already you have beco
me rich. Without us, you have beco
me kings. How I wish you really were kings, so that we might be kings with you!
1 Corinthians 4:5 Therefore judge nothing before the appointed ti
me; wait until the Lord co
mes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of
men’s hearts. At that ti
me each will receive his praise from God."
1 Corinthians 4:4 My conscience is clear, but that does not vindicate
me. It is the Lord who judges
me.
1 Corinthians 4:1 So then,
men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.
1 Corinthians 3:18 Let no one deceive himself. If any of you thinks he is wise in this age, he should beco
me a fool, so that he may beco
me wise.
1 Corinthians 3:15 If it is burned up, he will suffer loss. He himself will be saved, but only as if through the fla
mes.
1 Corinthians 3:10 By the grace God has given
me, I laid a foundation as an expert builder, and so
meone else is building on it. But each one must be careful how he builds.
1 Corinthians 3:4 For when one of you says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not
mere
men?"
1 Corinthians 2:15 The spiritual man judges all things, but he himself is not subject to anyone’s judg
ment."
1 Corinthians 2:14 The natural man does not accept the things that co
me from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
1 Corinthians 2:11 For who among
men knows the thoughts of man except his own spirit within him? So too, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
1 Corinthians 2:7 No, we speak of the mysterious and hidden wisdom of God, which He destined for our glory before ti
me began.
1 Corinthians 2:6 Among the mature, however, we speak a
message of wisdom—but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing."
1 Corinthians 2:5 so that your faith would not rest on
men’s wisdom, but on God’s power."
1 Corinthians 2:4 My
message and my preaching were not with persuasive words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,"
1 Corinthians 2:1 When I ca
me to you, brothers, I did not co
me with eloquence or wisdom as I proclai
med to you the testimony about God.
♫ 1 Corinthians 1:30 It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has beco
me for us wisdom from God: our righteousness, holiness, and redemption.
1 Corinthians 1:27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to sha
me the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to sha
me the strong.
1 Corinthians 1:26 Brothers, consider the ti
me of your calling: Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were powerful; not many were of noble birth.
1 Corinthians 1:18 For the
message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
♫ 1 Corinthians 1:17 For Christ did not send
me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with words of wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
1 Corinthians 1:16 Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that I do not re
member if I baptized anyone else.
1 Corinthians 1:13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized into the na
me of Paul?
1 Corinthians 1:12 What I
mean is this: Individuals among you are saying, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” or “I follow Christ.”"
1 Corinthians 1:11 My brothers, so
me from Chloe’s household have infor
med
me that there are quarrels among you."
1 Corinthians 1:10 I appeal to you, brothers, in the na
me of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree together, so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be united in mind and conviction.
1 Corinthians 1:8 He will sustain you to the end, so that you will be bla
meless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 1:2 To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the na
me of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:
Romans 16:27 to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! A
men.
Romans 16:26 but now revealed and made known through the writings of the prophets by the command of the eternal God, in order to lead all nations to the obedience that co
mes from faith—"
Romans 16:23 Gaius, who has hosted
me and all the church, sends you greetings. Erastus, the city treasurer, sends you greetings, as does our brother Quartus.
Romans 16:21 Timothy, my fellow worker, sends you greetings, as do Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my fellow country
men.
Romans 16:14 Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Her
mes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers with them.
Romans 16:13 Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother, who has been a mother to
me as well.
Romans 16:12 Greet Tryphena and Tryphosa, wo
men who have worked hard in the Lord. Greet my beloved Persis, who has worked very hard in the Lord.
Romans 16:7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow country
men and fellow prisoners. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was.
Romans 16:5 Greet also the church that
meets at their house. Greet my beloved Epenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in the province of Asia.
Romans 16:4 who have risked their lives for
me. Not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are grateful to them.
Romans 16:2 Welco
me her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and assist her with anything she may need from you. For she has been a great help to many people, including
me.
Romans 16:1 I com
mend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant of the church in Cenchrea.
Romans 15:32 so that by God’s will I may co
me to you with joy and together with you be refreshed."
Romans 15:30 Now I urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join
me in my struggle by praying to God for
me.
Romans 15:29 I know that when I co
me to you, I will co
me in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.
Romans 15:24 I hope to see you on my way to Spain. And after I have enjoyed your company for a while, you can equip
me for my journey.
Romans 15:23 But now that there are no further opportunities for
me in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to visit you,
Romans 15:20 In this way I have aspired to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on so
meone else’s foundation."
Romans 15:19 by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Spirit of God. So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclai
med the gospel of Christ.
Romans 15:18 I will not presu
me to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through
me in leading the Gentiles to obedience by word and deed,
Romans 15:16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might beco
me an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
Romans 15:15 However, I have written you a bold reminder on so
me points, because of the grace God has given
me Romans 15:9 so that the Gentiles may glorify God for His
mercy. As it is written: “Therefore I will praise You among the Gentiles; I will sing hymns to Your na
me.”"
Romans 15:8 For I tell you that Christ has beco
me a servant of the circumcised on behalf of God’s truth, to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs,"
Romans 15:5 Now may the God who gives endurance and encourage
ment grant you harmony with one another in Christ Jesus,
Romans 15:4 For everything that was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encourage
ment of the Scriptures, we might have hope.
Romans 15:3 For even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written: “The insults of those who insult You have fallen on
Me.”"
Romans 14:21 It is better not to eat
meat or drink wine or to do anything to cause your brother to stumble.
Romans 14:18 For whoever serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by
men.
Romans 14:14 I am convinced and fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards so
mething as unclean, then for him it is unclean.
Romans 14:11 It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before
Me; every tongue will confess to God.”"
Romans 14:10 Why, then, do you judge your brother? Or why do you belittle your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judg
ment seat."
Romans 14:5 One person regards a certain day above the others, while so
meone else considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.
Romans 14:4 Who are you to judge so
meone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand."
Romans 14:1 Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judg
ment on his opinions.
Romans 13:13 Let us behave decently, as in the dayti
me, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy.
Romans 13:11 And do this, understanding the occasion. The hour has co
me for you to wake up from your slumber, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.
Romans 13:10 Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfill
ment of the law.
Romans 13:9 The command
ments “Do not commit adultery,” “Do not murder,” “Do not steal,” “Do not covet,” and any other command
ments, are sum
med up in this one decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”"
Romans 13:5 Therefore it is necessary to submit to authority, not only to avoid punish
ment, but also as a matter of conscience.
Romans 13:2 Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judg
ment on themselves.
Romans 12:21 Do not be overco
me by evil, but overco
me evil with good.
Romans 12:8 if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is giving, let him give generously; if it is leading, let him lead with diligence; if it is showing
mercy, let him do it cheerfully.
Romans 12:5 so in Christ we who are many are one body, and each
member belongs to one another.
Romans 12:4 Just as each of us has one body with many
members, and not all
members have the sa
me function,
Romans 12:3 For by the grace given
me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but think of yourself with sober judg
ment, according to the
measure of faith God has given you.
Romans 12:2 Do not be confor
med to this world, but be transfor
med by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.
♫ Romans 12:1 Therefore I urge you, brothers, on account of God’s
mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship."
♫2 Romans 11:36 For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! A
men.
♫3 Romans 11:33 O, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judg
ments, and untraceable His ways!
♫2 Romans 11:32 For God has consigned everyone to disobedience so that He may have
mercy on everyone.
Romans 11:31 so they too have now disobeyed, in order that they too may now receive
mercy through the
mercy shown to you.
Romans 11:30 Just as you who for
merly disobeyed God have now received
mercy through their disobedience,
Romans 11:26 And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will co
me from Zion; He will remove godlessness from Jacob."
Romans 11:25 I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not be conceited: A hardening in part has co
me to Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles has co
me in.
Romans 11:18 do not boast over those branches. If you do, re
member this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you.
Romans 11:17 Now if so
me branches have been broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others to share in the nourish
ment of the olive root,
Romans 11:14 in the hope that I may provoke my own people to jealousy and save so
me of them.
Romans 11:12 But if their trespass
means riches for the world, and their failure
means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their fullness bring!
Romans 11:11 I ask then, did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Certainly not! However, because of their trespass, salvation has co
me to the Gentiles to make Israel jealous.
Romans 11:9 And David says: “May their table beco
me a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a retribution to them."
Romans 11:5 In the sa
me way, at the present ti
me there is a remnant chosen by grace.
Romans 11:4 And what was the divine reply to him? “I have reserved for Myself seven thousand
men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”"
Romans 10:20 And Isaiah boldly says: “I was found by those who did not seek
Me; I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for
Me.”"
Romans 10:17 Consequently, faith co
mes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
♫ Romans 10:16 But not all of them welco
med the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our
message?”"
Romans 10:14 How then can they call on the One in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without so
meone to preach?
♫2 Romans 10:13 for, “Everyone who calls on the na
me of the Lord will be saved.”"
♫2 Romans 10:12 For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The sa
me Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him,
Romans 10:11 It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to sha
me.”"
Romans 9:33 as it is written: “See, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; and the one who believes in Him will never be put to sha
me.”"
Romans 9:29 It is just as Isaiah foretold: “Unless the Lord of Hosts had left us descendants, we would have beco
me like Sodom, we would have resembled Gomorrah.”"
Romans 9:23 What if He did this to make the riches of His glory known to the vessels of His
mercy, whom He prepared in advance for glory—"
Romans 9:21 Does not the potter have the right to make from the sa
me lump of clay one vessel for special occasions and another for common use?
Romans 9:20 But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? Shall what is for
med say to Him who for
med it, “Why did You make
me like this?”"
Romans 9:19 One of you will say to
me, “Then why does God still find fault? For who can resist His will?”"
Romans 9:18 Therefore God has
mercy on whom He wants to have
mercy, and He hardens whom He wants to harden.
Romans 9:17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power in you, and that My na
me might be proclai
med in all the earth.”"
Romans 9:16 So then, it does not depend on man’s desire or effort, but on God’s
mercy."
Romans 9:15 For He says to Moses: “I will have
mercy on whom I have
mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”"
Romans 9:9 For this is what the promise stated: “At the appointed ti
me I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”"
Romans 9:5 Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them proceeds the human descent of Christ, who is God over all, forever worthy of praise! A
men.
Romans 9:1 I speak the truth in Christ; I am not lying, as confir
med by my conscience in the Holy Spirit.
Romans 8:29 For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be confor
med to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers.
♫2 Romans 8:26 In the sa
me way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know how we ought to pray, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groans too deep for words.
♫2 Romans 8:22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until the present ti
me.
Romans 7:24 What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue
me from this body of death?
Romans 7:23 But I see another law at work in my body, warring against the law of my mind and holding
me captive to the law of sin that dwells within
me.
Romans 7:21 So this is the principle I have discovered: When I want to do good, evil is right there with
me.
Romans 7:20 And if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in
me that does it.
Romans 7:18 I know that nothing good lives in
me, that is, in my flesh; for I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
Romans 7:17 In that case, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in
me that does it.
Romans 7:13 Did that which is good, then, beco
me death to
me? Certainly not! But in order that sin might be exposed as sin, it produced death in
me through what was good, so that through the command
ment sin might beco
me utterly sinful.
Romans 7:12 So then, the law is holy, and the command
ment is holy, righteous, and good.
Romans 7:11 For sin, seizing its opportunity through the command
ment, deceived
me and through the command
ment put
me to death.
Romans 7:10 So I discovered that the very command
ment that was
meant to bring life actually brought death.
Romans 7:9 Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the command
ment ca
me, sin sprang to life and I died.
Romans 7:8 But sin, seizing its opportunity through the command
ment, produced in
me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
Romans 6:22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have beco
me slaves to God, the fruit you reap leads to holiness, and the outco
me is eternal life.
Romans 6:21 What fruit did you reap at that ti
me from the things of which you are now asha
med? The outco
me of those things is death.
Romans 6:18 You have been set free from sin and have beco
me slaves to righteousness.
Romans 6:13 Do not present the parts of your body to sin as instru
ments of wickedness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and present the parts of your body to Him as instru
ments of righteousness.
Romans 5:20 The law ca
me in so that the trespass would increase; but where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
Romans 5:18 So then, just as one trespass brought condemnation for all
men, so also one act of righteousness brought justification and life for all
men.
♫ Romans 5:16 Again, the gift is not like the result of the one man’s sin: The judg
ment that followed one sin brought condemnation, but the gift that followed many trespasses brought justification."
Romans 5:15 But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that ca
me by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!"
Romans 5:14 Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those who did not sin in the way that Adam transgressed. He is a pattern of the One to co
me.
Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death was passed on to all
men, because all sinned.
Romans 5:7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man so
meone might possibly dare to die.
♫ Romans 5:6 For at just the right ti
me, while we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
♫ Romans 4:18 Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so beca
me the father of many nations, just as he had been told, “So shall your offspring be.”"
Romans 4:16 Therefore, the promise co
mes by faith, so that it may rest on grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all."
Romans 4:13 For the promise to Abraham and his offspring that he would be heir of the world was not given through the law, but through the righteousness that co
mes by faith.
Romans 4:2 If Abraham was indeed justified by works, he had so
mething to boast about, but not before God.
Romans 3:30 since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that sa
me faith.
Romans 3:26 He did this to demonstrate His righteousness at the present ti
me, so as to be just and to justify the one who has faith in Jesus.
Romans 3:22 And this righteousness from God co
mes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no distinction,
Romans 3:20 Therefore no one will be justified in His sight by works of the law. For the law
merely brings awareness of sin.
Romans 3:12 All have turned away, they have together beco
me worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.”"
Romans 3:8 Why not say, as so
me slanderously claim that we say, “Let us do evil that good may result”? Their condemnation is deserved!"
Romans 3:3 What if so
me did not have faith? Will their lack of faith nullify God’s faithfulness?"
Romans 2:29 No, a man is a Jew because he is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man’s praise does not co
me from
men, but from God."
Romans 2:26 If a man who is not circumcised keeps the require
ments of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision?
Romans 2:25 Circumcision has value if you observe the law, but if you break the law, your circumcision has beco
me uncircumcision.
Romans 2:24 As it is written: “God’s na
me is blasphe
med among the Gentiles because of you.”"
Romans 2:20 an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, because you have in the law the embodi
ment of knowledge and truth—"
Romans 2:16 on the day when God will judge
men’s secrets through Christ Jesus, as proclai
med by my gospel."
Romans 2:5 But because of your hard and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judg
ment will be revealed."
Romans 2:3 So when you, O man, pass judg
ment on others, yet do the sa
me things, do you think you will escape God’s judg
ment?"
Romans 2:2 And we know that God’s judg
ment against those who do such things is based on truth."
Romans 2:1 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judg
ment on another. For on whatever grounds you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judg
ment do the sa
me things.
Romans 1:31 They are senseless, faithless, heartless,
merciless.
Romans 1:29 They have beco
me filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips,
Romans 1:27 Likewise, the
men abandoned natural relations with wo
men and burned with lust for one another.
Men committed indecent acts with other
men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
Romans 1:26 For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their wo
men exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
Romans 1:25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is forever worthy of praise! A
men.
Romans 1:22 Although they clai
med to be wise, they beca
me fools,
Romans 1:21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but they beca
me futile in their thinking and darkened in their foolish hearts.
Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that
men are without excuse."
Romans 1:18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of
men who suppress the truth by their wickedness.
Romans 1:17 For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that co
mes by faith from start to finish, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”"
♫ Romans 1:16 I am not asha
med of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek.
♫ Romans 1:15 That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Ro
me.
Romans 1:13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, how often I planned to co
me to you (but have been prevented from visiting until now), in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.
Romans 1:11 For I long to see you so that I may impart to you so
me spiritual gift to strengthen you,
Romans 1:10 in my prayers at all ti
mes, asking that now at last by God’s will I may succeed in coming to you."
Romans 1:9 God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of His Son, is my witness how constantly I re
member you
Romans 1:8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being proclai
med all over the world.
Romans 1:7 To all in Ro
me who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 1:5 Through Him and on behalf of His na
me, we received grace and apostleship to call all those among the Gentiles to the obedience that co
mes from faith.
Acts 28:31 Boldly and freely he proclai
med the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ.
Acts 28:30 Paul stayed there two full years in his own rented house, welcoming all who ca
me to visit him.
Acts 28:25 They disagreed among themselves and began to leave after Paul had made this final state
ment: “The Holy Spirit was right when He spoke to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:"
Acts 28:24 So
me of them were convinced by what he said, but others refused to believe.
Acts 28:23 So they set a day to
meet with Paul, and many people ca
me to the place he was staying. He expounded to them from morning to evening, testifying about the kingdom of God and persuading them about Jesus from the Law of Moses and the Prophets.
Acts 28:21 The leaders replied, “We have not received any letters about you from Judea, nor have any of the brothers from there reported or even
mentioned anything bad about you."
Acts 28:18 They examined
me and wanted to release
me, because there was no basis for a death sentence against
me.
Acts 28:16 When we arrived in Ro
me, Paul was permitted to stay by himself, with a soldier to guard him.
Acts 28:15 The brothers there had heard about us and traveled as far as the Forum of Appius and the Three Taverns to
meet us. When Paul saw them, he was encouraged and gave thanks to God.
Acts 28:14 There we found so
me brothers who invited us to spend the week with them. And so we ca
me to Ro
me.
Acts 28:13 From there we weighed anchor and ca
me to Rhegium. After one day, a south wind ca
me up, and on the second day we arrived at Puteoli.
Acts 28:9 After this had happened, the rest of the sick on the island ca
me and were cured as well.
Acts 28:7 Nearby stood an estate belonging to Publius, the chief official of the island. He welco
med us and entertained us hospitably for three days.
Acts 28:6 The islanders were expecting him to swell up or suddenly drop dead. But after waiting a long ti
me and seeing nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god.
Acts 28:2 The islanders showed us extraordinary kindness. They kindled a fire and welco
med all of us because it was raining and cold.
Acts 27:39 When daylight ca
me, they did not recognize the land, but they sighted a bay with a sandy beach, where they decided to run the ship aground if they could.
Acts 27:38 After the
men had eaten their fill, they lightened the ship by throwing the grain into the sea.
Acts 27:36 They were all encouraged and took so
me food themselves.
Acts 27:34 So for your own preservation, I urge you to eat so
mething, because not a single hair of your head will be lost.”"
Acts 27:31 But Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these
men remain with the ship, you cannot be saved.”"
Acts 27:30 Meanwhile, the sailors attempted to escape from the ship. Pretending to lower anchors from the bow, they let the lifeboat down into the sea.
Acts 27:26 However, we must run aground on so
me island.”"
Acts 27:25 So take courage,
men, for I believe God that it will happen just as He told
me.
Acts 27:23 For just last night an angel of God, whose I am and whom I serve, stood beside
me Acts 27:21 After the
men had gone a long ti
me without food, Paul stood up among them and said, “
Men, you should have followed my advice not to sail from Crete. Then you would have averted this disaster and loss."
Acts 27:18 We were tossed so violently that the next day the
men began to jettison the cargo.
Acts 27:12 Since the harbor was unsuitable to winter in, the majority decided to sail on, if so
mehow they could reach Phoenix to winter there. Phoenix was a harbor in Crete facing both southwest and northwest.
Acts 27:10 “
Men, I can see that our voyage will be filled with disaster and great loss, not only to ship and cargo, but to our own lives as well.”"
Acts 27:9 By now much ti
me had passed, and the voyage had already beco
me dangerous because it was after the Fast. So Paul advised them,
Acts 27:8 After we had moved along the coast with difficulty, we ca
me to a place called Fair Havens, near the town of Lasea.
Acts 27:5 And when we had sailed across the open sea off the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we ca
me to Myra in Lycia.
Acts 27:1 When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, Paul and so
me other prisoners were handed over to a centurion na
med Julius, who belonged to the Imperial Regi
ment.
Acts 26:31 On their way out, they said to one another, “This man has done nothing worthy of death or imprison
ment.”"
Acts 26:29 “Short ti
me or long,” Paul replied, “I wish to God that not only you but all who hear
me this day may beco
me what I am, except for these chains.”"
Acts 26:28 Then Agrippa said to Paul, “Can you persuade
me in such a short ti
me to beco
me a Christian?”"
Acts 26:24 At this stage of Paul’s defense, Festus exclai
med in a loud voice, “You are insane, Paul! Your great learning is driving you to madness!”"
Acts 26:21 For this reason the Jews seized
me in the temple courts and tried to kill
me.
Acts 26:18 to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those sanctified by faith in
Me.’"
Acts 26:16 ‘But get up and stand on your feet. For I have appeared to you to appoint you as a servant and as a witness of what you have seen from
Me and what I will show you."
Acts 26:14 We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice say to
me in Hebrew, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute
Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’"
Acts 26:13 About noon, O king, as I was on the road, I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining around
me and my companions.
Acts 26:11 I frequently had them punished in the synagogues, and I tried to make them blasphe
me. In my raging fury against them, I even went to foreign cities to persecute them.
Acts 26:9 So then, I too was convinced that I ought to do all I could to oppose the na
me of Jesus of Nazareth.
Acts 26:5 They have known
me for a long ti
me and can testify, if they are willing, that I lived as a Pharisee, adhering to the strictest sect of our religion.
Acts 26:3 especially since you are acquainted with all the Jewish customs and controversies. I beg you, therefore, to listen to
me patiently.
Acts 25:27 For it seems unreasonable to
me to send on a prisoner without specifying the charges against him.”"
Acts 25:26 I have nothing definite to write to our sovereign one about him. Therefore I have brought him before all of you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after this inquiry I may have so
mething to write.
Acts 25:24 Then Festus said, “King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see this man. The whole Jewish community has petitioned
me about him, both here and in Jerusalem, crying out that he ought not to live any longer."
Acts 25:23 The next day Agrippa and Bernice ca
me with great pomp and entered the auditorium, along with the commanders and leading
men of the city. And Festus ordered that Paul be brought in.
Acts 25:19 They only had so
me contentions with him regarding their own religion and a certain Jesus who had died, but whom Paul affir
med to be alive.
Acts 25:18 But when his accusers rose to speak, they did not charge him with any of the cri
mes I had expected.
Acts 25:17 So when they ca
me here with
me, I did not delay. The next day I sat on the judg
ment seat and ordered that the man be brought in.
Acts 25:15 While I was in Jerusalem, the chief priests and elders of the Jews presented their case and requested a judg
ment against him.
Acts 25:13 After several days had passed, King Agrippa and Bernice ca
me down to Caesarea to pay their respects to Festus.
Acts 25:11 If, however, I am guilty of anything worthy of death, I do not refuse to die. But if there is no truth to their accusations against
me, no one has the right to hand
me over to them. I appeal to Caesar!”"
Acts 25:10 Paul replied, “I am standing before the judg
ment seat of Caesar, where I ought to be tried. I have done nothing wrong to the Jews, as you yourself know very well."
Acts 25:9 But Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, “Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem to stand trial before
me on these charges?”"
Acts 25:7 When Paul arrived, the Jews who had co
me down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing many serious charges that they could not prove.
Acts 25:6 After spending no more than eight or ten days with them, Festus went down to Caesarea. The next day he sat on the judg
ment seat and ordered that Paul be brought in.
Acts 25:5 So if this man has done anything wrong, let so
me of your leaders co
me down with
me and accuse him there.”"
Acts 24:26 At the sa
me ti
me, he was hoping that Paul would offer him a bribe. So he sent for Paul frequently and talked with him.
Acts 24:25 As Paul expounded on righteousness, self-control, and the coming judg
ment, Felix beca
me frightened and said, “You may go for now. When I find the ti
me, I will call for you.”"
Acts 24:23 He ordered the centurion to keep Paul under guard, but to allow him so
me freedom and permit his friends to minister to his needs.
Acts 24:22 Then Felix, who was well infor
med about the Way, adjourned the hearing and said, “When Lysias the commander co
mes, I will decide your case.”"
Acts 24:20 Otherwise, let these
men state for themselves any cri
me they found in
me when I stood before the Sanhedrin,
Acts 24:19 who ought to appear before you and bring charges, if they have anything against
me.
Acts 24:18 At the ti
me they found
me in the temple, I was ceremonially clean and was not inciting a crowd or an uproar. But there are so
me Jews from the province of Asia
Acts 24:15 and I have the sa
me hope in God that they themselves cherish, that there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked.
Acts 24:13 Nor can they prove to you any of their charges against
me.
Acts 24:12 Yet my accusers did not find
me debating with anyone in the temple or riling up a crowd in the synagogues or in the city.
Acts 24:2 When Paul had been called in, Tertullus opened the prosecution: “Because of you, we have enjoyed a lasting peace, and your foresight has brought improve
ments to this nation."
Acts 24:1 Five days later the high priest Ananias ca
me down with so
me elders and a lawyer na
med Tertullus, who presented to the governor their case against Paul.
Acts 23:33 When the horse
men arrived in Caesarea, they delivered the letter to the governor and presented Paul to him.
Acts 23:32 The next day they returned to the barracks and let the horse
men go on with him.
Acts 23:30 When I was infor
med that there was a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once. I also instructed his accusers to present their case against him before you.
Acts 23:29 I found that the accusation involved questions about their own law, but there was no charge worthy of death or imprison
ment.
Acts 23:27 This man was seized by the Jews, and they were about to kill him when I ca
me with my troops to rescue him. For I had learned that he is a Roman citizen,
Acts 23:23 Then he called two of his centurions and said, “Prepare two hundred soldiers, seventy horse
men, and two hundred spear
men to go to Caesarea in the third hour of the night."
Acts 23:22 So the commander dismissed the young man and instructed him, “Do not tell anyone that you have reported this to
me.”"
Acts 23:21 Do not let them persuade you, because more than forty
men are waiting to ambush him. They have bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink until they have killed him; they are ready now, awaiting your consent.”"
Acts 23:19 The commander took the young man by the hand, drew him aside, and asked, “What do you need to tell
me?”"
Acts 23:18 So the centurion took him to the commander and said, “Paul the prisoner sent and asked
me to bring this young man to you. He has so
mething to tell you.”"
Acts 23:17 Then Paul called one of the centurions and said, “Take this young man to the commander; he has so
mething to tell him.”"
Acts 23:12 When daylight ca
me, the Jews for
med a conspiracy and bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink until they had killed Paul.
Acts 23:11 The following night the Lord stood near Paul and said, “Take courage! As you have testified about
Me in Jerusalem, so also you must testify in Ro
me.”"
Acts 23:9 A great clamor arose, and so
me scribes from the party of the Pharisees got up and contended sharply, “We find nothing wrong with this man. What if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?”"
Acts 23:6 Then Paul, knowing that so
me of them were Sadducees and others Pharisees, called out in the Sanhedrin, “Brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee. It is because of my hope in the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.”"
Acts 23:3 Then Paul said to him, “God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! You sit here to judge
me according to the law, yet you yourself violate the law by commanding that I be struck.”"
Acts 22:29 Then those who were about to interrogate Paul stepped back, and the commander himself was alar
med when he realized that he had put a Roman citizen in chains.
Acts 22:27 The commander went to Paul and asked, “Tell
me, are you a Roman citizen?” “Yes,” he answered."
Acts 22:22 The crowd listened to Paul until he made this state
ment. Then they lifted up their voices and shouted, “Rid the earth of him! He is not fit to live!”"
Acts 22:21 Then He said to
me, ‘Go! I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’”"
Acts 22:20 And when the blood of Your witness Stephen was shed, I stood there giving my approval and watching over the gar
ments of those who killed him.’"
Acts 22:18 and saw the Lord saying to
me, ‘Hurry! Leave Jerusalem quickly, because the people here will not accept your testimony about
Me.’"
Acts 22:16 And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized, and wash your sins away, calling on His na
me.’"
Acts 22:13 ca
me and stood beside
me. ‘Brother Saul,’ he said, ‘receive your sight.’ And at that mo
ment I could see him."
Acts 22:12 There a man na
med Ananias, a devout observer of the law who was highly regarded by all the Jews living there,
Acts 22:11 Because the brilliance of the light had blinded
me, my companions led
me by the hand into Damascus.
Acts 22:10 Then I asked, ‘What should I do, Lord?’ ‘Get up and go into Damascus,’ He told
me. ‘There you will be told all that you have been appointed to do.’"
Acts 22:9 My companions saw the light, but they could not understand the voice of the One speaking to
me.
Acts 22:7 I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to
me, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute
Me?’"
Acts 22:6 About noon as I was approaching Damascus, suddenly a bright light from heaven flashed around
me.
Acts 22:5 as the high priest and the whole Council can testify about
me. I even obtained letters from them to their brothers in Damascus, and I was on my way to apprehend these people and bring them to Jerusalem to be punished.
Acts 22:4 I persecuted this Way even to the death, detaining both
men and wo
men and throwing them into prison,
Acts 22:2 When they heard him speak to them in Hebrew, they beca
me even more silent. Then Paul declared,
Acts 21:40 Having received permission, Paul stood on the steps and motioned to the crowd. A great hush ca
me over the crowd, and he addressed them in Hebrew:
Acts 21:39 But Paul answered, “I am a Jew from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no ordinary city. Now I beg you to allow
me to speak to the people.”"
Acts 21:38 “Aren’t you the Egyptian who incited a rebellion so
me ti
me ago and led four thousand
members of the ‘Assassins’ into the wilderness?”"
Acts 21:37 As they were about to take Paul into the barracks, he asked the commander, “May I say so
mething to you?” “Do you speak Greek?” he replied."
Acts 21:34 So
me in the crowd were shouting one thing, and so
me another. And since the commander could not get at the truth because of the uproar, he ordered that Paul be brought into the barracks.
Acts 21:33 The commander ca
me up and arrested Paul, ordering that he be bound with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done.
Acts 21:32 Im
mediately he took so
me soldiers and centurions and ran down to the crowd. When the people saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.
Acts 21:31 While they were trying to kill him, the commander of the Roman regi
ment received a report that all Jerusalem was in turmoil.
Acts 21:29 For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they assu
med that Paul had brought him into the temple.
Acts 21:28 crying out, “
Men of Israel, help us! This is the man who teaches everywhere against our people and against our law and against this place. Furthermore, he has brought Greeks into the temple and defiled this holy place.”"
Acts 21:27 When the seven days were almost over, so
me Jews from the province of Asia saw Paul at the temple. They stirred up the whole crowd and seized him,
Acts 21:26 So the next day Paul took the
men and purified himself along with them. Then he entered the temple to give notice of the date when their purification would be complete and the offering would be made for each of them.
Acts 21:25 As for the Gentile believers, we have written to them our decision that they must abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the
meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality.”"
Acts 21:24 Take these
men, purify yourself along with them, and pay their expenses so they can have their heads shaved. Then everyone will know that there is no truth to these rumors about you, but that you also live in obedience to the law.
Acts 21:23 Therefore do what we advise you. There are four
men with us who have taken a vow.
Acts 21:22 What then should we do? They will certainly hear that you have co
me.
Acts 21:18 The next day Paul went in with us to see Ja
mes, and all the elders were present.
Acts 21:17 When we arrived in Jerusalem, the brothers welco
med us joyfully.
Acts 21:16 So
me of the disciples from Caesarea accompanied us, and they took us to stay at the ho
me of Mnason the Cypriot, an early disciple.
Acts 21:13 Then Paul answered, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the na
me of the Lord Jesus.”"
Acts 21:10 After we had been there several days, a prophet na
med Agabus ca
me down from Judea.
Acts 21:8 Leaving the next day, we went on to Caesarea and stayed at the ho
me of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the Seven.
Acts 21:6 And after we had said our farewells, we went aboard the ship, and they returned ho
me.
Acts 21:5 But when our ti
me there had ended, we set out on our journey. All the disciples, with their wives and children, accompanied us out of the city and knelt down on the beach to pray with us.
Acts 20:38 They were especially grieved by his state
ment that they would never see his face again. Then they accompanied him to the ship.
Acts 20:35 In everything, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, re
membering the words of the Lord Jesus Himself: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”"
♫ Acts 20:31 Therefore be alert and re
member that for three years I never stopped warning each of you night and day with tears.
Acts 20:30 Even from your own number,
men will rise up and distort the truth to draw away disciples after them.
Acts 20:29 I know that after my departure, savage wolves will co
me in among you and will not spare the flock.
Acts 20:26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all
men.
Acts 20:24 But I consider my life of no value to
me, if only I may finish my course and complete the ministry I have received from the Lord Jesus—the ministry of testifying to the good news of God’s grace."
Acts 20:23 I only know that in town after town the Holy Spirit warns
me that chains and afflictions await
me.
Acts 20:22 And now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to
me there.
Acts 20:19 I served the Lord with great humility and with tears, especially in the trials that ca
me upon
me through the plots of the Jews.
Acts 20:18 When they ca
me to him, he said, “You know how I lived the whole ti
me I was with you, from the first day I arrived in the province of Asia."
Acts 20:16 Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus to avoid spending ti
me in the province of Asia, because he was in a hurry to reach Jerusalem, if possible, by the day of Pentecost.
Acts 20:15 Sailing on from there, we arrived the next day opposite Chios. The day after that we arrived at Samos, and on the following day we ca
me to Miletus.
Acts 20:14 And when he
met us at Assos, we took him aboard and went on to Mitylene.
Acts 20:12 And the people were greatly relieved to take the boy ho
me alive.
Acts 20:10 But Paul went down, threw himself on the young man, and embraced him. “Do not be alar
med!” he said. “He is still alive!”"
Acts 20:9 And a certain young man na
med Eutychus, seated in the window, was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell from the third story and was picked up dead.
Acts 20:7 On the first day of the week we ca
me together to break bread. Since Paul was ready to leave the next day, he talked to them and kept on speaking until midnight.
Acts 20:5 These
men went on ahead and waited for us in Troas.
Acts 20:3 where he stayed three months. And when the Jews for
med a plot against him as he was about to sail for Syria, he decided to go back through Macedonia.
Acts 20:2 After traveling through that area and speaking many words of encourage
ment, he arrived in Greece,
Acts 19:38 So if De
metrius and his fellow crafts
men have a complaint against anyone, the courts are open and proconsuls are available. Let them bring charges against one another there.
Acts 19:37 For you have brought these
men here, though they have neither robbed our temple nor blasphe
med our goddess.
Acts 19:35 Finally the city clerk quieted the crowd and declared, “
Men of Ephesus, doesn’t everyone know that the city of Ephesus is guardian of the temple of the great Artemis and of her image, which fell from heaven?"
Acts 19:32 Meanwhile the assembly was in turmoil. So
me were shouting one thing and so
me another, and most of them did not even know why they were there.
Acts 19:31 Even so
me of Paul’s friends who were officials of the province of Asia sent word to him, begging him not to venture into the theatre."
Acts 19:28 When the
men heard this, they were enraged and began shouting, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”"
Acts 19:25 De
metrius assembled the crafts
men, along with the work
men in related trades. “
Men,” he said, “you know that this business is our source of prosperity."
Acts 19:24 It began with a silversmith na
med De
metrius who made silver shrines of Artemis, bringing much business to the crafts
men.
Acts 19:23 About that ti
me there arose a great disturbance about the Way.
Acts 19:22 He sent two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, to Macedonia, while he stayed for a ti
me in the province of Asia.
Acts 19:21 After these things had happened, Paul resolved in the Spirit to go to Jerusalem after he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia. “After I have been there,” he said, “I must see Ro
me as well.”"
Acts 19:19 And a number of those who had practiced magic arts brought their books and burned them in front of everyone. When the value of the books was calculated, the total ca
me to fifty thousand drachmas.
Acts 19:18 Many who had believed now ca
me forward, confessing and disclosing their deeds.
Acts 19:17 This beca
me known to all the Jews and Greeks living in Ephesus, and fear ca
me over all of them. So the na
me of the Lord Jesus was held in high honor.
Acts 19:13 Now there were so
me itinerant Jewish exorcists who tried to invoke the na
me of the Lord Jesus over those with evil spirits. They would say, “I bind you by Jesus, whom Paul proclaims.”"
Acts 19:9 But when so
me of them stubbornly refused to believe and publicly maligned the Way, Paul took his disciples and left the synagogue to conduct daily discussions in the lecture hall of Tyrannus.
Acts 19:7 There were about twelve
men in all.
Acts 19:6 And when Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit ca
me upon them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied.
Acts 19:5 On hearing this, they were baptized into the na
me of the Lord Jesus.
Acts 19:2 and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you beca
me believers?” “No,” they answered, “we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”"
Acts 19:1 While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the interior and ca
me to Ephesus. There he found so
me disciples
Acts 18:27 When Apollos resolved to cross over to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples there to welco
me him. On his arrival, he was a great help to those who by grace had believed.
Acts 18:24 Meanwhile a Jew na
med Apollos, a native of Alexandria, ca
me to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, well versed in the Scriptures.
Acts 18:23 After Paul had spent so
me ti
me in Antioch, he traveled from place to place throughout the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
Acts 18:21 But as he left, he said, “I will co
me back to you if God is willing.” And he set sail from Ephesus."
Acts 18:18 Paul remained in Corinth for quite so
me ti
me before saying goodbye to the brothers. He had his head shaved in Cenchrea to keep a vow he had made, and then he sailed for Syria, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila.
Acts 18:17 At this, the crowd seized Sosthenes the synagogue leader and beat him in front of the judg
ment seat. But none of this was of concern to Gallio.
Acts 18:16 And he drove them away from the judg
ment seat.
Acts 18:15 But since it is a dispute about words and na
mes and your own law, settle it yourselves. I refuse to be a judge of such things.”"
Acts 18:14 But just as Paul was about to speak, Gallio told the Jews, “If this matter involved a wrongdoing or vicious cri
me, O Jews, it would be reasonable for
me to hear your complaint."
Acts 18:12 While Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews coordinated an attack on Paul and brought him before the judg
ment seat.
Acts 18:8 Crispus, the synagogue leader, and his whole household believed in the Lord. And many of the Corinthians who heard the
message believed and were baptized.
Acts 18:6 But when they opposed and insulted him, he shook out his gar
ments and told them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent of it. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”"
Acts 18:5 And when Silas and Timothy ca
me down from Macedonia, Paul devoted himself fully to the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.
Acts 18:2 There he found a Jew na
med Aquila, a native of Pontus, who had recently co
me from Italy with his wife Priscilla because Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Ro
me. Paul went to visit them,
Acts 17:34 But so
me joined him and believed, including Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman na
med Damaris, and others who were with them.
Acts 17:32 When they heard about the resurrection of the dead, so
me began to mock him, but others said, “We want to hear you again on this topic.”"
Acts 17:30 Although God overlooked the ignorance of earlier ti
mes, He now commands all people everywhere to repent.
Acts 17:29 Therefore, being offspring of God, we should not think that the Divine Being is like gold or silver or stone, an image for
med by man’s skill and imagination."
Acts 17:28 ‘For in Him we live and move and have our being.’ As so
me of your own poets have said, ‘We are His offspring.’"
Acts 17:26 From one man He made every nation of
men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined their appointed ti
mes and the boundaries of their lands.
Acts 17:23 For as I walked around and examined your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore what you worship as so
mething unknown, I now proclaim to you.
Acts 17:22 Then Paul stood up in the
meeting of the Areopagus and said, “
Men of Athens, I see that in every way you are very religious."
Acts 17:21 Now all the Athenians and foreigners who lived there spent their ti
me doing nothing more than hearing and articulating new ideas.
Acts 17:20 For you are bringing so
me strange notions to our ears, and we want to know what they
mean.”"
Acts 17:18 So
me Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also began to debate with him. So
me of them asked, “What is this babbler trying to say?” Others said, “He seems to be advocating foreign gods.” They said this because Paul was proclaiming the good news of Jesus and the resurrection."
Acts 17:17 So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and God-fearing Gentiles, and in the marketplace with those he
met each day.
Acts 17:14 The brothers im
mediately sent Paul to the coast, but Silas and Timothy remained in Berea.
Acts 17:12 As a result, many of them believed, along with quite a few prominent Greek wo
men and
men.
Acts 17:11 Now the Bereans were more noble-minded than the Thessalonians, for they received the
message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if these teachings were true.
Acts 17:7 and Jason has welco
med them into his ho
me. They are all defying Caesar’s decrees, saying that there is another king, na
med Jesus!”"
Acts 17:6 But when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and so
me other brothers before the city officials, shouting, “These
men who have turned the world upside down have now co
me here,"
Acts 17:5 The Jews, however, beca
me jealous. So they brought in so
me troublemakers from the marketplace, for
med a mob, and sent the city into an uproar. They raided Jason’s house in search of Paul and Silas, hoping to bring them out to the people."
Acts 17:4 So
me of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, along with a large number of God-fearing Greeks and quite a few leading wo
men.
Acts 17:1 When they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they ca
me to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.
Acts 16:40 After Paul and Silas ca
me out of the prison, they went to Lydia’s house to see the brothers and encourage them. Then they left the city."
Acts 16:39 They ca
me to appease them and led them out, requesting that they leave the city.
Acts 16:38 So the officers relayed this
message to the magistrates, who were alar
med to hear that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens.
Acts 16:37 But Paul said to the officers, “They beat us publicly without a trial and threw us into prison, even though we are Roman citizens. And now do they want to send us away secretly? Absolutely not! Let them co
me themselves and escort us out!”"
Acts 16:36 The jailer infor
med Paul: “The magistrates have sent orders to release you. Now you may go on your way in peace.”"
Acts 16:35 When daylight ca
me, the magistrates sent their officers with the order: “Release those
men.”"
Acts 16:34 Then he brought them into his ho
me and set a
meal before them. So he and all his household rejoiced that they had co
me to believe in God.
Acts 16:26 Suddenly a strong earthquake shook the foundations of the prison. At once all the doors flew open and everyone’s chains ca
me loose."
Acts 16:20 They brought them to the magistrates and said, “These
men are Jews and are throwing our city into turmoil"
Acts 16:18 She continued this for many days. Eventually Paul grew so aggravated that he turned and said to the spirit, “In the na
me of Jesus Christ I command you to co
me out of her!” And the spirit left her at that very mo
ment."
Acts 16:17 This girl followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, “These
men are servants of the Most High God, who are proclaiming to you the way of salvation!”"
Acts 16:16 One day as we were going to the place of prayer, we were
met by a slave girl with a spirit of divination, who earned a large inco
me for her masters by fortune-telling.
Acts 16:15 And when she and her household had been baptized, she urged us, “If you consider
me a believer in the Lord, co
me and stay at my house.” And she persuaded us."
Acts 16:14 Among those listening was a woman na
med Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth from the city of Thyatira, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul’s
message."
Acts 16:13 On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate along the river, where it was customary to find a place of prayer. After sitting down, we spoke to the wo
men who had gathered there.
Acts 16:9 During the night, Paul had a vision of a man of Macedonia standing and pleading with him, “Co
me over to Macedonia and help us.”"
Acts 16:7 And when they ca
me to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not permit them.
Acts 16:1 Paul ca
me to Derbe and then to Lystra, where he found a disciple na
med Timothy, the son of a believing Jewish woman and a Greek father.
Acts 15:40 but Paul chose Silas and left, com
mended by the brothers to the grace of the Lord.
Acts 15:39 Their disagree
ment was so sharp that they parted company. Barnabas took Mark and sailed for Cyprus,
Acts 15:36 So
me ti
me later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us go back and visit the brothers in every town where we proclai
med the word of the Lord, to see how they are doing.”"
Acts 15:33 After spending so
me ti
me there, they were sent off by the brothers in peace to return to those who had sent them.
Acts 15:31 When the people read it, they rejoiced at its encouraging
message.
Acts 15:30 So the
men were sent off and went down to Antioch, where they assembled the congregation and delivered the letter.
Acts 15:29 You must abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the
meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. You will do well to avoid these things. Farewell.
Acts 15:28 It see
med good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond these essential require
ments:
Acts 15:27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas to tell you in person the sa
me things we are writing.
Acts 15:26 men who have risked their lives for the na
me of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Acts 15:25 So we all agreed to choose
men to send to you along with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
Acts 15:24 It has co
me to our attention that so
me went out from us without our authorization and unsettled you, troubling your minds by what they said.
Acts 15:22 Then the apostles and elders, with the whole church, decided to select
men from among them to send to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas called Barsabbas and Silas, two leaders among the brothers,
Acts 15:21 For Moses has been proclai
med in every city from ancient ti
mes and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.”"
Acts 15:20 Instead, we should write and tell them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the
meat of strangled animals, and from blood.
Acts 15:19 It is my judg
ment, therefore, that we should not cause trouble for the Gentiles who are turning to God.
Acts 15:17 so that the remnant of
men may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by My na
me, says the Lord who does these things
Acts 15:13 When they had finished speaking, Ja
mes declared, “Brothers, listen to
me!"
Acts 15:7 After much discussion, Peter got up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you that the Gentiles would hear from my lips the
message of the gospel and believe."
Acts 15:6 So the apostles and elders
met to look into this matter.
Acts 15:5 But so
me believers from the party of the Pharisees stood up and declared, “The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to obey the law of Moses.”"
Acts 15:4 On their arrival in Jerusalem, they were welco
med by the church and apostles and elders, to whom they reported all that God had done through them.
Acts 15:2 And after engaging these
men in sharp debate, Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with so
me other believers, to go up to Jerusalem to see the apostles and elders about this question.
Acts 15:1 Then so
me men ca
me down from Judea and were teaching the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.”"
Acts 14:28 And they spent a long ti
me there with the disciples.
Acts 14:26 From Attalia they sailed to Antioch, where they had been com
mended to the grace of God for the work they had just completed.
Acts 14:24 After passing through Pisidia, they ca
me to Pamphylia.
Acts 14:19 Then so
me Jews arrived from Antioch and Iconium and won over the crowds. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, presuming he was dead.
Acts 14:15 “
Men, why are you doing this? We too are only
men, human like you. We are bringing you good news that you should turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea and everything in them."
Acts 14:12 Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Her
mes, because he was the chief speaker.
Acts 14:11 When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices in the Lycaonian language: “The gods have co
me down to us in human form!”"
Acts 14:8 In Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was la
me from birth and had never walked.
Acts 14:4 The people of the city were divided. So
me sided with the Jews, and others with the apostles.
Acts 14:3 So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable ti
me there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who affir
med the
message of His grace by enabling them to perform signs and wonders.
Acts 13:50 The Jews, however, incited the religious wo
men of prominence and the leading
men of the city. They stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas and drove them out of their district.
Acts 13:42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people urged them to continue this
message on the next Sabbath.
Acts 13:41 ‘Look, you scoffers, wonder and perish! For I am doing a work in your days that you would never believe, even if so
meone told you.’”"
Acts 13:38 Therefore let it be known to you, brothers, that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclai
med to you.
Acts 13:33 He has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus. As it is written in the second Psalm: ‘You are My Son; today I have beco
me Your Father.’"
Acts 13:26 Brothers, children of Abraham, and you Gentiles who fear God, it is to us that this
message of salvation has been sent.
Acts 13:25 As John was completing his course, he said, ‘Who do you suppose I am? I am not that One. But He is coming after
me whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.’"
Acts 13:20 All this took about 450 years. After this, God gave them judges until the ti
me of Samuel the prophet.
Acts 13:16 Paul stood up, motioned with his hand, and began to speak: “
Men of Israel and you Gentiles who fear God, listen to
me!"
Acts 13:15 After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the synagogue leaders sent word to them: “Brothers, if you have a word of encourage
ment for the people, please speak.”"
Acts 13:13 After setting sail from Paphos, Paul and his companions ca
me to Perga in Pamphylia, where John left them to return to Jerusalem.
Acts 13:11 Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and for a ti
me you will be blind and unable to see the light of the sun.” Im
mediately mist and darkness ca
me over him, and he groped about, seeking so
meone to lead him by the hand."
Acts 13:8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for that is what his na
me means) opposed them and tried to turn the proconsul from the faith.
Acts 13:6 They traveled through the whole island as far as Paphos, where they found a Jewish sorcerer and false prophet na
med Bar-Jesus,
Acts 13:5 When they arrived at Salamis, they proclai
med the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. And John was with them as their helper.
Acts 13:2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for
Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”"
Acts 13:1 Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Si
meon called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen (who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch), and Saul.
Acts 12:23 Im
mediately, because Herod did not give glory to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.
Acts 12:19 After Herod had searched for him unsuccessfully, he examined the guards and ordered that they be executed. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and spent so
me ti
me there.
Acts 12:18 At daybreak there was no small commotion among the soldiers as to what had beco
me of Peter.
Acts 12:17 Peter motioned with his hand for silence, and he described how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. “Send word to Ja
mes and to the brothers,” he said, and he left for another place."
Acts 12:13 He knocked at the outer gate, and a servant girl na
med Rhoda ca
me to answer it.
Acts 12:11 Then Peter ca
me to himself and said, “Now I know for sure that the Lord has sent His angel and rescued
me from Herod’s grasp and from everything the Jewish people were anticipating.”"
Acts 12:10 They passed the first and second guards and ca
me to the iron gate leading to the city, which opened for them by itself. When they had gone outside and walked the length of one block, the angel suddenly left him.
Acts 12:8 “Get dressed and put on your sandals,” said the angel. Peter did so, and the angel told him, “Wrap your cloak around you and follow
me.”"
Acts 12:2 He had Ja
mes, the brother of John, put to death with the sword.
Acts 12:1 About that ti
me, King Herod reached out to harm so
me who belonged to the church.
Acts 11:28 One of them na
med Agabus stood up and predicted through the Spirit that a great famine would sweep across the whole world. (This happened under Claudius.)
Acts 11:27 In those days so
me prophets ca
me down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
Acts 11:26 and when he found him, he brought him back to Antioch. So for a full year they
met together with the church and taught large numbers of people. The disciples were first called Christians at Antioch.
Acts 11:20 But so
me of them,
men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began speaking to the Greeks as well, proclaiming the good news about the Lord Jesus.
Acts 11:19 Meanwhile those scattered by the persecution that began with Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the
message only to Jews.
Acts 11:17 So if God gave them the sa
me gift He gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to hinder the work of God?”"
Acts 11:16 Then I re
membered the word of the Lord, as He used to say, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’"
Acts 11:14 He will convey to you a
message by which you and all your household will be saved.’"
Acts 11:12 The Spirit told
me to accompany them without hesitation. These six brothers also went with
me, and we entered the man’s ho
me."
Acts 11:11 Just then three
men sent to
me from Caesarea stopped at the house where I was staying.
Acts 11:10 This happened three ti
mes, and everything was drawn back up into heaven.
Acts 11:9 But the voice spoke from heaven a second ti
me, ‘Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.’"
Acts 11:7 Then I heard a voice saying to
me, ‘Get up, Peter, kill and eat.’"
Acts 11:5 “I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision of so
mething like a large sheet being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it ca
me right down to
me."
Acts 11:3 and said, “You visited uncircumcised
men and ate with them.”"
Acts 10:48 So he ordered that they be baptized in the na
me of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay for a few days.
Acts 10:44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who heard his
message.
Acts 10:43 All the prophets testify about Him that everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins through His na
me.”"
Acts 10:37 You yourselves know what has happened throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee with the baptism that John proclai
med:
Acts 10:36 He has sent this
message to the people of Israel, proclaiming the gospel of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all.
Acts 10:35 but welco
mes those from every nation who fear Him and do what is right.
Acts 10:33 So I sent for you im
mediately, and you were kind enough to co
me. Now then, we are all here in the presence of God to listen to everything the Lord has instructed you to tell us.”"
Acts 10:32 Therefore send to Joppa for Simon, who is called Peter. He is a guest in the ho
me of Simon the tanner, by the sea.’"
Acts 10:31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your gifts to the poor have been re
membered before God."
Acts 10:30 Cornelius answered: “Four days ago I was in my house praying at this, the ninth hour. Suddenly a man in radiant clothing stood before
me"
Acts 10:29 So when I was invited, I ca
me without objection. I ask, then, why have you sent for
me?”"
Acts 10:28 He said to them, “You know how unlawful it is for a Jew to associate with a foreigner or visit him. But God has shown
me that I should not call any man impure or unclean."
Acts 10:25 As Peter was about to enter, Cornelius
met him and fell at his feet to worship him.
Acts 10:23 So Peter invited them in as his guests. And the next day he got ready and went with them, accompanied by so
me of the brothers from Joppa.
Acts 10:22 “Cornelius the centurion has sent us,” they said. “He is a righteous and God-fearing man with a good reputation among the whole Jewish nation. A holy angel instructed him to request your presence in his ho
me so he could hear a
message from you.”"
Acts 10:21 So Peter went down to the
men and said, “Here am I, the one you are looking for. Why have you co
me?”"
Acts 10:19 As Peter continued to reflect on the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three
men are looking for you."
Acts 10:17 While Peter was puzzling over the
meaning of the vision, the
men sent by Cornelius found Simon’s house and approached the gate."
Acts 10:16 This happened three ti
mes, and all at once the sheet was taken back up into heaven.
Acts 10:15 The voice spoke to him a second ti
me: “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.”"
Acts 10:11 He saw heaven open and so
mething like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners.
Acts 10:10 He beca
me hungry and wanted so
mething to eat, but while the
meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance.
Acts 10:9 The next day at about the sixth hour, as the
men were approaching the city on their journey, Peter went up on the roof to pray.
Acts 10:5 Now send
men to Joppa to call for a man na
med Simon who is called Peter.
Acts 10:4 Cornelius stared at him in fear and asked, “What is it, Lord?” The angel answered, “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have ascended as a
memorial offering before God."
Acts 10:3 One day at about the ninth hour, he had a clear vision of an angel of God who ca
me to him and said, “Cornelius!”"
Acts 10:1 At Caesarea there was a man na
med Cornelius, a centurion in what was called the Italian Regi
ment.
Acts 9:43 And Peter stayed for several days in Joppa with a tanner na
med Simon.
Acts 9:42 This beca
me known all over Joppa, and many people believed in the Lord.
Acts 9:38 Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples heard that Peter was there and sent two
men to urge him, “Co
me to us without delay.”"
Acts 9:37 At that ti
me, however, she beca
me sick and died, and her body was washed and placed in an upper room.
Acts 9:36 In Joppa there was a disciple na
med Tabitha (which is translated as Dorcas), who was always occupied with works of kindness and charity.

Acts 9:33 There he found a man na
med Aeneas, who had been paralyzed and bedridden for eight years.
Acts 9:31 Then the church throughout Judea, Galilee, and Samaria experienced a ti
me of peace. It grew in strength and numbers, living in the fear of the Lord and the encourage
ment of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 9:28 So Saul stayed with them, moving about freely in Jerusalem and speaking boldly in the na
me of the Lord.
Acts 9:27 Then Barnabas brought him to the apostles and described how Saul had seen the Lord, who spoke to him on the road to Damascus, and how Saul had spoken boldly in that city in the na
me of Jesus.
Acts 9:21 All who heard him were astounded and asked, “Isn’t this the man who wreaked havoc in Jerusalem on those who call on this na
me? And hasn’t he co
me here to take them as prisoners to the chief priests?”"
Acts 9:19 and after taking so
me food, he regained his strength. And he spent several days with the disciples in Damascus.
Acts 9:18 At that instant, so
mething like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and his sight was restored. He got up and was baptized,"
Acts 9:17 So Ananias went to the house, and when he arrived, he placed his hands on Saul. “Brother Saul,” he said, “the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here, has sent
me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”"
Acts 9:16 I will show him how much he must suffer for My na
me.”"
Acts 9:15 “Go!” said the Lord. “This man is My chosen instru
ment to carry My na
me before the Gentiles and their kings, and before the people of Israel."
Acts 9:14 And now he is here with authority from the chief priests to arrest all who call on Your na
me.”"
Acts 9:13 But Ananias answered, “Lord, many people have told
me about this man and all the harm he has done to Your saints in Jerusalem."
Acts 9:12 In a vision he has seen a man na
med Ananias co
me and place his hands on him to restore his sight.”"
Acts 9:11 “Get up!” the Lord told him. “Go to the house of Judas on Straight Street and ask for a man from Tarsus na
med Saul, for he is praying."
Acts 9:10 In Damascus there was a disciple na
med Ananias. The Lord spoke to him in a vision, “Ananias!” “Here I am, Lord,” he answered."

men traveling with Saul stood there speechless. They heard the voice but did not see anyone.
Acts 9:4 He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute
Me?”"
Acts 9:2 and requested letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any
men or wo

Acts 9:1 Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the disciples of the Lord. He approached the high priest
Acts 8:40 But Philip appeared at Azotus and traveled through that region, preaching the gospel in all the towns until he ca

Acts 8:39 When they ca
me up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, but went on his way rejoicing.
Acts 8:36 As they traveled along the road and ca
me to so
me water, the eunuch said, “Look, here is water! What is there to prevent
me from being baptized?”"
Acts 8:34 “Tell
me,” said the eunuch, “who is the prophet talking about, himself or so
meone else?”"
Acts 8:31 “How can I,” he said, “unless so
meone guides
me?” And he invited Philip to co

met an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official in charge of the entire treasury of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians. He had gone to Jerusalem to worship,

me, so that nothing you have said may happen to
me.”"
Acts 8:19 “Give
me this power as well,” he said, “so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.”"
Acts 8:16 For the Holy Spirit had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had simply been baptized into the na
me of the Lord Jesus.
Acts 8:12 But when they believed Philip as he preached the gospel of the kingdom of God and the na
me of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both
men and wo

Acts 8:11 They paid close attention to him because he had astounded them for a long ti

Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,"
Acts 6:11 Then they prompted so

Acts 6:9 But resistance arose from what was called the Synagogue of the Freed

men from the provinces of Cilicia and Asia. They began to argue with Stephen,
Acts 6:7 So the word of God continued to spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem grew rapidly, and a great number of priests beca

Acts 3:10 they recognized him as the man who used to sit begging at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amaze

John 21:17 Jesus asked a third ti

John 21:10 Jesus told them, “Bring so
me of the fish you have just caught.”"
John 21:9 When they landed, they saw a charcoal fire there with fish on it, and so
me bread.
John 21:8 The other disciples ca
me ashore in the boat. They dragged in the net full of fish, for they were not far from land, only about a hundred yards.
John 21:7 Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer gar
ment (for he had removed it) and jumped into the sea."
John 21:6 He told them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find so
me.” So they cast it there, and they were unable to haul it in because of the great number of fish."
John 20:31 But these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His na

John 20:30 Jesus perfor

John 20:29 Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen
Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”"
John 20:26 Eight days later, His disciples were once again inside with the doors locked, and Thomas was with them. Jesus ca
me and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”"
John 20:24 Now Thomas called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus ca
me.
John 20:21 Again Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent
Me, so also I am sending you.”"
John 20:19 It was the first day of the week, and that very evening, while the disciples were together with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus ca
me and stood among them. “Peace be with you!” He said to them."
John 20:17 “Do not cling to
Me,” Jesus said, “for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go and tell My brothers, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, to My God and your God.’”"
John 20:16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which
means “Teacher”)."
John 20:15 “Woman, why are you weeping?” Jesus asked. “Whom are you seeking?” Thinking He was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried Him off, tell
me where you have put Him, and I will get Him.”"
John 20:10 Then the disciples returned to their ho
mes.
John 20:2 So she ca
me running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb,” she said, “and we do not know where they have put Him!”"
John 19:39 Nicodemus, who had previously co
me to Jesus at night, also brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.
John 19:38 Afterward, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews), asked Pilate to let him remove the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he ca
me and removed His body.
John 19:34 Instead, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and im
mediately blood and water flowed out.
John 19:33 But when they ca
me to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.
John 19:32 So the soldiers ca
me and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and those of the other.
John 19:27 Then He said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” So from that hour, this disciple took her into his ho
me."
John 19:24 So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it. Instead, let us cast lots to see who will get it.” This was to fulfill the Scripture: “They divided My gar
ments among them, and cast lots for My clothing.” So that is what the soldiers did."
John 19:23 When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they divided His gar
ments into four parts, one for each soldier, with the tunic remaining. It was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.
John 19:13 When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat on the judg
ment seat at a place called the Stone Pave
ment, which in Hebrew is Gabbatha.
John 19:11 Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over
Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed
Me over to you is guilty of greater sin.”"
John 19:10 So Pilate said to Him, “Do You refuse to speak to
me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify You?”"
John 19:8 When Pilate heard this state
ment, he was even more afraid,
John 19:5 When Jesus ca
me out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”"
John 19:4 Once again Pilate ca
me out and said to the Jews, “Look, I am bringing Him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against Him.”"
John 18:39 But it is your custom that I release to you one prisoner at the Passover. So then, do you want
me to release to you the King of the Jews?”"
John 18:37 “Then You are a king!” Pilate said. “You say that I am a king,” Jesus answered. “For this reason I was born and have co
me into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to My voice.”"
John 18:35 “Am I a Jew?” Pilate replied. “Your own people and chief priests handed You over to
me. What have You done?”"
John 18:34 “Are you saying this on your own,” Jesus asked, “or did others tell you about
Me?”"
John 18:27 Peter denied it once more, and im
mediately a rooster crowed.
John 18:23 Jesus replied, “If I said so
mething wrong, testify as to what was wrong. But if I spoke correctly, why did you strike
Me?”"
John 18:21 Why are you asking
Me? Ask those who heard My
message. Surely they know what I said.”"
John 18:20 “I have spoken openly to the world,” Jesus answered. “I always taught in the synagogues and at the temple, where all the Jews co
me together. I said nothing in secret."
John 18:19 Meanwhile, the high priest questioned Jesus about His disciples and His teaching.
John 18:11 “Put your sword back in its sheath!” Jesus said to Peter. “Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given
Me?”"
John 18:10 Then Simon Peter drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear. The servant’s na
me was Malchus."
John 18:9 This was to fulfill the word He had spoken: “I have not lost one of those You have given
Me.”"
John 18:8 “I told you that I am He,” Jesus replied. “So if you are looking for
Me, let these
men go.”"
John 18:2 Now Judas His betrayer also knew the place, because Jesus had often
met there with His disciples.
John 17:26 And I have made Your na
me known to them and will continue to make it known, so that the love You have for
Me may be in them, and I in them.”"
John 17:25 Righteous Father, although the world has not known You, I know You, and they know that You sent
Me.
John 17:24 Father, I want those You have given
Me to be with
Me where I am, that they may see the glory You gave
Me because You loved
Me before the foundation of the world.
John 17:23 I in them and You in
Me—that they may be perfectly united, so that the world may know that You sent
Me and have loved them just as You have loved
Me."

♫ John 17:21 that all of them may be one, as You, Father, are in
Me, and I am in You. May they also be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent
Me.
♫2 John 17:20 I am not asking on behalf of them alone, but also on behalf of those who will believe in
Me through their
message,
John 17:18 As You sent
Me into the world, I have also sent them into the world.
John 17:12 While I was with them, I protected and preserved them by Your na
me, the na
me You gave
Me. Not one of them has been lost, except the son of destruction, so that the Scripture would be fulfilled.
John 17:11 I will no longer be in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, protect them by Your na
me, the na
me You gave
Me, so that they may be one as We are one.
John 17:9 I ask on their behalf. I do not ask on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those You have given
Me; for they are Yours.
John 17:8 For I have given them the words You gave
Me, and they have received them. They knew with certainty that I ca
me from You, and they believed that You sent
Me.
John 17:7 Now they know that everything You have given
Me co
mes from You.
John 17:6 I have revealed Your na
me to those You have given
Me out of the world. They were Yours; You gave them to
Me, and they have kept Your word.
John 17:5 And now, Father, glorify
Me in Your presence with the glory I had with You before the world existed.
John 17:4 I have glorified You on earth by accomplishing the work You gave
Me to do.
John 17:1 When Jesus had spoken these things, He lifted up His eyes to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has co
me. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son may glorify You."
John 16:33 I have told you these things so that in
Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage; I have overco
me the world!”"
John 16:32 “Look, an hour is coming and has already co
me when you will be scattered, each to his own ho
me, and you will leave
Me all alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with
Me."
John 16:30 Now we understand that You know all things and that You have no need for anyone to question You. Because of this, we believe that You ca
me from God.”"
John 16:28 I ca
me from the Father and entered the world. In turn, I will leave the world and go to the Father.”"
John 16:27 For the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved
Me and have believed that I ca
me from God.
John 16:26 In that day you will ask in My na
me. I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf.
John 16:24 Until now you have not asked for anything in My na
me. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
John 16:23 In that day you will no longer ask
Me anything. Truly, truly, I tell you, whatever you ask the Father in My na
me, He will give you.
John 16:21 A woman has pain in childbirth because her ti
me has co
me; but when she brings forth her child, she forgets her anguish because of her joy that a child has been born into the world.
John 16:19 Aware that they wanted to question Him, Jesus said to them, “Are you asking one another why I said, ‘In a little while you will not see
Me, and then after a little while you will see
Me’?"
John 16:17 Then so
me of His disciples asked one another, “Why is He telling us, ‘In a little while you will not see
Me, and then after a little while you will see
Me’ and ‘Because I am going to the Father’?”"
John 16:16 In a little while you will see
Me no more, and then after a little while you will see
Me.”"
John 16:14 He will glorify
Me by taking from what is Mine and disclosing it to you.
John 16:13 However, when the Spirit of truth co
mes, He will guide you into all truth. For He will not speak on His own, but He will speak what He hears, and He will declare to you what is to co
me.
John 16:11 and in regard to judg
ment, because the prince of this world has been condemned.
John 16:10 in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will no longer see
Me;
John 16:9 in regard to sin, because they do not believe in
Me;
John 16:8 And when He co
mes, He will convict the world in regard to sin and righteousness and judg
ment:
John 16:7 But I tell you the truth, it is for your benefit that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not co
me to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.
John 16:5 Now, however, I am going to Him who sent
Me; yet none of you asks
Me, ‘Where are You going?’"
John 16:4 But I have told you these things so that when their hour co
mes, you will re
member that I told you about them. I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
John 16:3 They will do these things because they have not known the Father or
Me.
John 16:2 They will put you out of the synagogues. In fact, a ti
me is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God.
John 15:27 And you also must testify, because you have been with
Me from the beginning.
John 15:26 When the Advocate co
mes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father—He will testify about
Me."
John 15:25 But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated
Me without reason.’"
John 15:24 If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have seen and hated both
Me and My Father.
John 15:23 Whoever hates
Me hates My Father as well.
John 15:22 If I had not co
me and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin.
John 15:21 But they will treat you like this because of My na
me, since they do not know the One who sent
Me.
John 15:20 Re
member the word that I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted
Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well."
John 15:18 If the world hates you, understand that it hated
Me first.
John 15:16 You did not choose
Me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will remain—so that whatever you ask the Father in My na
me, He will give you."
♫ John 15:12 This is My command
ment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
♫ John 15:10 If you keep My command
ments, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s command
ments and remain in His love."
♫ John 15:9 As the Father has loved
Me, so have I loved you. Remain in My love.
♫ John 15:7 If you remain in
Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
♫2 John 15:6 If anyone does not remain in
Me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers. Such branches are gathered up, thrown into the fire, and burned.
♫ John 15:5 I am the vine and you are the branches. The one who remains in
Me, and I in him, will bear much fruit. For apart from
Me you can do nothing.
♫ John 15:4 Remain in
Me, and I will remain in you. Just as no branch can bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in
Me.
♫ John 15:2 He cuts off every branch in
Me that bears no fruit, and every branch that does bear fruit, He prunes to make it even more fruitful.
♫ John 14:31 But I do exactly what the Father has commanded
Me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Get up! Let us go on from here.
John 14:30 I will not speak with you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming, and he has no claim on
Me.
John 14:28 You heard
Me say, ‘I am going away, and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved
Me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I."
John 14:26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My na
me, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have told you.
John 14:24 Whoever does not love
Me does not keep My words. The word that you hear is not My own, but it is from the Father who sent
Me.
John 14:23 Jesus replied, “If anyone loves
Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will co
me to him and make Our ho
me with him."
John 14:21 Whoever has My command
ments and keeps them is the one who loves
Me. The one who loves
Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him.”"
John 14:20 On that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you are in
Me, and I am in you.
John 14:19 In a little while the world will see
Me no more, but you will see
Me. Because I live, you also will live.
John 14:18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will co
me to you.
John 14:15 If you love
Me, you will keep My command
ments.
John 14:14 If you ask
Me for anything in My na
me, I will do it.
♫ John 14:13 And I will do whatever you ask in My na
me, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
♫ John 14:12 Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever believes in
Me will also do the works that I am doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
♫ John 14:11 Believe
Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in
Me—or at least believe on account of the works themselves."
John 14:10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in
Me? The words I say to you, I do not speak on My own. Instead, it is the Father dwelling in
Me, performing His works.
John 14:9 Jesus replied, “Philip, I have been with you all this ti
me, and still you do not know
Me? Anyone who has seen
Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?"
John 14:7 If you had known
Me, you would know My Father as well. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.”"
John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one co
mes to the Father except through
Me."
♫ John 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will co
me back and welco
me you into My presence, so that you also may be where I am.
♫2 John 14:1 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe in
Me as well."
♫ John 13:38 “Will you lay down your life for
Me?” Jesus replied. “Truly, truly, I tell you, before the rooster crows, you will deny
Me three ti
mes."
John 13:36 “Lord, where are You going?” Simon Peter asked. Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you cannot follow
Me now, but you will follow later.”"
John 13:34 A new command
ment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another.
♫4 John 13:33 Little children, I am with you only a little while longer. You will look for
Me, and as I said to the Jews, so now I say to you: ‘Where I am going, you cannot co
me.’"
John 13:29 Since Judas kept the money bag, so
me thought that Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the feast, or to give so
mething to the poor.
John 13:22 The disciples looked at one another, perplexed as to which of them He
meant.
John 13:21 After Jesus had said this, He beca
me troubled in spirit and testified, “Truly, truly, I tell you, one of you will betray
Me.”"
John 13:20 Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever receives the one I send receives
Me, and whoever receives
Me receives the One who sent
Me.”"
John 13:19 I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it co
mes to pass, you will believe that I am He.
John 13:18 I am not speaking about all of you; I know whom I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the Scripture: ‘The one who shares My bread has lifted up his heel against
Me.’"
John 13:16 Truly, truly, I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a
messenger greater than the one who sent him.
John 13:13 You call
Me Teacher and Lord, and rightly so, because I am.
John 13:12 When Jesus had washed their feet and put on His outer gar
ments, He reclined with them again and asked, “Do you know what I have done for you?"
John 13:8 “Never shall You wash my feet!” Peter told Him. Jesus answered, “Unless I wash you, you have no part with
Me.”"
John 13:6 He ca
me to Simon Peter, who asked Him, “Lord, are You going to wash my feet?”"
John 13:4 So He got up from the supper, laid aside His outer gar
ments, and wrapped a towel around His waist.
John 13:3 Jesus knew that the Father had delivered all things into His hands, and that He had co
me from God and was returning to God.
John 13:2 The evening
meal was underway, and the devil had already put into the heart of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.
John 13:1 It was now just before the Passover Feast, and Jesus knew that His hour had co
me to leave this world and return to the Father. Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the very end.
John 12:50 And I know that His command leads to eternal life. So I speak exactly what the Father has told
Me to say.”"
John 12:49 I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent
Me has commanded
Me what to say and how to say it.
John 12:48 There is a judge for the one who rejects
Me and does not receive My words: The word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.
John 12:47 As for anyone who hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I have not co
me to judge the world, but to save the world.
John 12:46 I have co
me into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in
Me should remain in darkness.
John 12:45 And whoever sees
Me sees the One who sent
Me.
John 12:44 Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in
Me does not believe in
Me alone, but in the One who sent
Me."
John 12:43 For they loved praise from
men more than praise from God.
John 12:38 This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our
message? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”"
John 12:37 Although Jesus had perfor
med so many signs in their presence, they still did not believe in Him.
John 12:36 While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may beco
me sons of light.” After Jesus had spoken these things, He went away and was hidden from them."
♫ John 12:31 Now judg
ment is upon this world; now the prince of this world will be cast out.
John 12:28 Father, glorify Your na
me!” Then a voice ca
me from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”"
John 12:27 Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save
Me from this hour’? No, it is for this purpose that I have co
me to this hour."
John 12:26 If anyone serves
Me, he must follow
Me; and where I am, My servant will be as well. If anyone serves
Me, the Father will honor him.
John 12:23 But Jesus replied, “The hour has co
me for the Son of Man to be glorified."
John 12:21 They ca
me to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and requested of him, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”"
John 12:20 Now there were so
me Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast.
John 12:18 That is also why the crowd went out to
meet Him, because they heard that He had perfor
med this sign.
John 12:17 Meanwhile, many people continued to testify that they had been with Jesus when He called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead.
John 12:16 At first His disciples did not understand these things, but after Jesus was glorified they re
membered what had been done to Him, and they realized that these very things had also been written about Him.
John 12:13 They took palm branches and went out to
meet Him, shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who co
mes in the na
me of the Lord!” “Blessed is the King of Israel!”"
John 12:12 The next day the great crowd that had co
me to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.
John 12:9 Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews learned that Jesus was there. And they ca
me not only because of Him, but also to see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.
John 12:8 The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have
Me.”"
John 12:7 “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “She has kept this perfu
me in preparation for the day of My burial."
John 12:5 “Why wasn’t this perfu
me sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?”"
John 12:3 Then Mary took about a pint of expensive perfu
me, made of pure nard, and she anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped them with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfu
me."
John 12:1 Six days before the Passover, Jesus ca
me to Bethany, the ho
metown of Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.
John 11:56 They kept looking for Jesus and asking one another as they stood in the temple courts, “What do you think? Will He co
me to the feast at all?”"
John 11:49 But one of them, na
med Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all!"
John 11:48 If we let Him go on like this, everyone will believe in Him, and then the Romans will co
me and take away both our place and our nation.”"
John 11:46 But so
me of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
John 11:45 Therefore many of the Jews who had co
me to Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in Him.
John 11:44 The man who had been dead ca
me out with his hands and feet bound in strips of linen, and his face wrapped in a cloth. “Unwrap him and let him go,” Jesus told them."
John 11:43 After Jesus had said this, He called out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, co
me out!”"
John 11:42 I knew that You always hear
Me, but I say this for the benefit of the people standing here, so they may believe that You sent
Me.”"
John 11:41 So they took away the stone. Then Jesus lifted His eyes upward and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard
Me."
John 11:38 Jesus, once again deeply moved, ca
me to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.
John 11:37 But so
me of them asked, “Could not this man who opened the eyes of the blind also have kept Lazarus from dying?”"
John 11:34 “Where have you put him?” He asked. “Co
me and see, Lord,” they answered."
John 11:33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had co
me with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.
John 11:32 When Mary ca
me to Jesus and saw Him, she fell at His feet and said, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”"
John 11:30 Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had
met Him.
John 11:27 “Yes, Lord,” she answered, “I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to co
me into the world.”"
John 11:26 And everyone who lives and believes in
Me will never die. Do you believe this?”"
♫ John 11:25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in
Me will live, even though he dies."
♫ John 11:20 So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to
meet Him; but Mary stayed at ho
me.
John 11:19 and many of the Jews had co
me to Martha and Mary to console them in the loss of their brother.
John 11:9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the dayti
me, he will not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world."
John 11:2 (Mary, whose brother Lazarus was sick, was to anoint the Lord with perfu
me and wipe His feet with her hair.)
John 11:1 At this ti
me a man na
med Lazarus was sick. He lived in Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
John 10:41 Many ca
me to Him and said, “Although John never perfor
med a sign, everything he said about this man was true.”"
John 10:38 But if I am doing them, even though you do not believe
Me, believe the works themselves, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in
Me, and I am in the Father.”"
John 10:37 If I am not doing the works of My Father, then do not believe
Me.
John 10:36 then what about the One whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world? How then can you accuse
Me of blasphemy for stating that I am the Son of God?
John 10:35 If he called them gods to whom the word of God ca
me—and the Scripture cannot be broken—"
John 10:32 But Jesus responded, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone
Me?”"
John 10:29 My Father who has given them to
Me is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand."
♫ John 10:27 My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow
Me.
♫ John 10:25 “I already told you,” Jesus replied, “but you did not believe. The works I do in My Father’s na
me testify on My behalf."
John 10:22 At that ti
me the Feast of Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was winter,
John 10:19 Again there was division among the Jews because of Jesus’
message."
John 10:18 No one takes it from
Me, but I lay it down of My own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from My Father.”"
John 10:17 The reason the Father loves
Me is that I lay down My life in order to take it up again.
John 10:15 just as the Father knows
Me and I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep.
John 10:14 I am the good shepherd. I know My sheep and My sheep know
Me,
John 10:10 The thief co
mes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have co
me that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness.
♫ John 10:9 I am the gate. If anyone enters through
Me, he will be saved. He will co
me in and go out and find pasture.
John 10:8 All who ca
me before
Me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
John 10:3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen for his voice. He calls his own sheep by na
me and leads them out.
John 10:1 “Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever does not enter the sheepfold by the gate, but climbs in so
me other way, is a thief and a robber."
John 9:40 So
me of the Pharisees who were with Him heard this, and they asked Him, “Are we blind too?”"
John 9:39 Then Jesus declared, “For judg
ment I have co
me into this world, so that the blind may see and those who see may beco
me blind.”"
John 9:36 “Who is He, Sir?” he replied. “Tell
me so that I may believe in Him.”"
John 9:27 He replied, “I already told you, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to beco
me His disciples?”"
John 9:24 So a second ti
me they called for the man who had been blind and said, “Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner.”"
John 9:16 Because of this, so
me of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for He does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a sinful man perform such signs?” And there was division among them."
John 9:11 He answered, “The man they call Jesus made so
me mud and anointed my eyes, and He told
me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and received my sight.”"
John 9:9 So
me clai
med that he was, but others said, “No, he just looks like him.” But the man kept saying, “I am the one.”"
John 9:8 At this, his neighbors and those who had for
merly seen him begging began to ask, “Isn’t this the man who used to sit and beg?”"
John 9:7 Then He told him, “Go, wash in the Pool of Siloam” (which
means “Sent”). So the man went and washed, and ca
me back seeing."
John 9:6 When Jesus had said this, He spit on the ground, made so
me mud, and applied it to the man’s eyes."
John 9:4 While it is dayti
me, we must do the works of Him who sent
Me. Night is coming, when no one can work.
John 8:54 Jesus answered, “If I glorify Myself, My glory
means nothing. The One who glorifies
Me is My Father, of whom you say ‘He is our God.’"
John 8:49 “I do not have a demon,” Jesus replied, “but I honor My Father, and you dishonor
Me."
John 8:46 Which of you can prove
Me guilty of sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe
Me?
John 8:45 But because I speak the truth, you do not believe
Me!
John 8:43 Why do you not understand what I am saying? It is because you are unable to accept My
message.
John 8:42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love
Me, for I have co
me here from God. I have not co
me on My own, but He sent
Me."
John 8:40 But now you are trying to kill
Me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham never did such a thing.
John 8:37 I know you are Abraham’s descendants, but you are trying to kill
Me because My word has no place within you."
John 8:35 A slave is not a permanent
member of the family, but a son belongs to it forever.
John 8:29 He who sent
Me is with
Me. He has not left
Me alone, because I always do what pleases Him.”"
John 8:28 So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing on My own, but speak exactly what the Father has taught
Me."
John 8:26 “I have much to say about you and much to judge. But the One who sent
Me is truthful, and what I have heard from Him, I tell the world.”"
John 8:22 So the Jews began to ask, “Will He kill Himself, since He says, ‘Where I am going, you cannot co
me’?”"
John 8:21 Again He said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for
Me, but you will die in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot co
me.”"
John 8:20 He spoke these words while teaching in the temple courts, near the treasury. Yet no one seized Him, because His hour had not yet co
me.
John 8:19 “Where is Your Father?” they asked Him. “You do not know
Me or My Father,” Jesus answered. “If you knew
Me, you would know My Father as well.”"
John 8:18 I am One who testifies about Myself, and the Father, who sent
Me, also testifies about
Me.”"
John 8:17 Even in your own Law it is written that the testimony of two
men is valid.
John 8:16 But even if I do judge, My judg
ment is true, because I am not alone; I am with the Father who sent
Me.
John 8:14 Jesus replied, “Even if I testify about Myself, My testimony is valid, because I know where I ca
me from and where I am going. But you do not know where I ca
me from or where I am going."
John 8:12 Once again, Jesus spoke to the people and said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows
Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”"
John 8:2 Early in the morning He went back into the temple courts. All the people ca
me to Him, and He sat down to teach them.
John 7:52 “Aren’t you also from Galilee?” they replied. “Look into it, and you will see that no prophet co
mes out of Galilee.”"
John 7:44 So
me of them wanted to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him.
John 7:42 Doesn’t the Scripture say that the Christ will co
me from the line of David and from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?”"
John 7:41 Others declared, “This is the Christ.” But still others asked, “How can the Christ co
me from Galilee?"
John 7:40 On hearing these words, so
me of the people said, “This is truly the Prophet.”"
John 7:38 Whoever believes in
Me, as the Scripture has said: ‘Streams of living water will flow from within him.’”"
♫ John 7:37 On the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood up and called out in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him co
me to
Me and drink."
♫ John 7:36 What does He
mean by saying, ‘You will look for
Me, but you will not find
Me,’ and, ‘Where I am, you cannot co
me’?”"
John 7:34 You will look for
Me, but you will not find
Me; and where I am, you cannot co
me.”"
John 7:33 So Jesus said, “I am with you only a little while longer, and then I am going to the One who sent
Me."
John 7:31 Many in the crowd, however, believed in Him and said, “When the Christ co
mes, will He perform more signs than this man?”"
John 7:30 So they tried to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet co
me.
John 7:29 but I know Him, because I am from Him and He sent
Me.”"
John 7:28 Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts, cried out, “You know
Me, and you know where I am from. I have not co
me of My own accord, but He who sent
Me is true. You do not know Him,"
John 7:27 But we know where this man is from. When the Christ co
mes, no one will know where He is from.”"
John 7:25 Then so
me of the people of Jerusalem began to say, “Isn’t this the man they are trying to kill?"
John 7:23 If a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses will not be broken, why are you angry with
Me for making the whole man well on the Sabbath?
John 7:19 Has not Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps it. Why are you trying to kill
Me?”"
John 7:16 “My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied. “It co
mes from Him who sent
Me."
John 7:12 Many in the crowds were whispering about Him. So
me said, “He is a good man.” But others replied, “No, He deceives the people.”"
John 7:8 Go up to the feast on your own. I am not going up to this feast, because My ti
me has not yet co
me.”"
John 7:7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates
Me, because I testify that its works are evil.
John 7:6 Therefore Jesus told them, “Although your ti
me is always at hand, My ti
me has not yet co
me."
John 6:66 From that ti
me on many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him.
John 6:65 Then Jesus said, “This is why I told you that no one can co
me to
Me unless the Father has granted it to him.”"
John 6:64 However, there are so
me of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray Him.)"
John 6:58 This is the bread that ca
me down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who ate the manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live forever.”"
♫ John 6:57 Just as the living Father sent
Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on
Me will live because of
Me.
♫ John 6:56 Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in
Me, and I in him.
♫ John 6:51 I am the living bread that ca
me down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And this bread, which I will give for the life of the world, is My flesh.”"
♫2 John 6:50 This is the bread that co
mes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat of it and not die.
♫ John 6:45 It is written in the Prophets: ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from Him co
mes to
Me—"
♫ John 6:44 “No one can co
me to
Me unless the Father who sent
Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day."
♫ John 6:42 They were asking, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then can He say, ‘I have co
me down from heaven?’”"
♫ John 6:41 At this, the Jews began to grumble about Jesus because He had said, “I am the bread that ca
me down from heaven.”"
♫ John 6:39 And this is the will of Him who sent
Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given
Me, but raise them up at the last day.
♫ John 6:38 For I have co
me down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent
Me.
♫ John 6:37 Everyone the Father gives
Me will co
me to
Me, and the one who co
mes to
Me I will never drive away.
♫ John 6:36 But as I stated, you have seen
Me and still you do not believe.
♫ John 6:35 Jesus answered, “I am the bread of life. Whoever co
mes to
Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in
Me will never thirst."
♫3 John 6:34 “Sir,” they said, “give us this bread at all ti
mes.”"
John 6:33 For the bread of God is He who co
mes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”"
John 6:26 Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it is not because you saw these signs that you are looking for
Me, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill."
John 6:23 However, so
me boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
John 6:16 When evening ca
me, His disciples went down to the sea,
John 6:15 Then Jesus, realizing that they were about to co
me and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself.
John 6:14 When the people saw the sign that Jesus had perfor
med, they began to say, “Truly this is the Prophet who is to co
me into the world.”"
John 6:10 “Have the people sit down,” Jesus said. Now there was plenty of grass in that place, so the
men sat down, about five thousand of them."
John 5:46 If you had believed Moses, you would believe
Me, because he wrote about
Me.
John 5:44 How can you believe if you accept glory from one another, yet do not seek the glory that co
mes from the only God?
John 5:43 I have co
me in My Father’s na
me, and you have not received
Me; but if so
meone else co
mes in his own na
me, you will receive him."
John 5:40 yet you refuse to co
me to
Me to have life.
♫ John 5:39 You pore over the Scriptures because you presu
me that by them you possess eternal life. These are the very words that testify about
Me,
♫ John 5:37 And the Father who sent
Me has Himself testified about
Me. You have never heard His voice nor seen His form,
John 5:36 But I have testimony more substantial than that of John. For the works that the Father has given
Me to accomplish—the very works I am doing—testify about
Me that the Father has sent
Me."
John 5:32 There is another who testifies about
Me, and I know that His testimony about
Me is valid.
John 5:30 I can do nothing by Myself; I judge only as I hear. And My judg
ment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent
Me.
John 5:29 and co
me out—those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judg
ment."
John 5:27 And He has given Him authority to execute judg
ment, because He is the Son of Man.
John 5:25 Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour is coming and has now co
me when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.
John 5:24 Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent
Me has eternal life and will not co
me under judg
ment. Indeed, he has crossed over from death to life.
John 5:22 Furthermore, the Father judges no one, but has assigned all judg
ment to the Son,
John 5:20 The Father loves the Son and shows Him all He does. And to your amaze
ment, He will show Him even greater works than these.
John 5:14 Afterward, Jesus found the man at the temple and said to him, “See, you have been made well. Stop sinning, or so
mething worse may happen to you.”"
John 5:11 But he answered, “The man who made
me well told
me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’”"
John 5:9 Im
mediately the man was made well, and he picked up his mat and began to walk. Now this happened on the Sabbath day,
John 5:7 “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help
me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am on my way, so
meone else goes in before
me.”"
John 5:6 When Jesus saw him lying there and realized that he had spent a long ti
me in this condition, He asked him, “Do you want to get well?”"
John 5:3 On these walkways lay a great number of the sick, the blind, the la
me, and the paralyzed.
John 5:1 So
me ti
me later there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
John 4:54 This was now the second sign that Jesus perfor
med after coming from Judea into Galilee.
John 4:51 And while he was still on the way, his servants
met him with the news that his boy was alive.
John 4:49 “Sir,” the official said, “co
me down before my child dies.”"
John 4:47 When he heard that Jesus had co
me from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged Him to co
me down and heal his son, who was about to die.
John 4:46 So once again He ca
me to Cana in Galilee, where He had turned the water into wine. And there was a royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum.
John 4:45 Yet when He arrived, the Galileans welco
med Him. They had seen all the great things He had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they had gone there as well.
John 4:44 Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own ho
metown.
John 4:41 And many more believed because of His
message.
John 4:40 So when the Samaritans ca
me to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.
John 4:39 Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told
me everything I ever did.”"
John 4:34 Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent
Me and to finish His work."
John 4:33 So the disciples asked one another, “Could so
meone have brought Him food?”"
John 4:31 Meanwhile the disciples urged Him, “Rabbi, eat so
mething.”"
John 4:29 “Co
me, see a man who told
me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”"
John 4:25 The woman said, “I know that
Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When He co
mes, He will explain everything to us.”"
John 4:23 But a ti
me is coming and has now co
me when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him.
John 4:21 “Believe
Me, woman,” Jesus replied, “a ti
me is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem."
John 4:16 Jesus told her, “Go, call your husband and co
me back.”"
John 4:15 The woman said to Him, “Sir, give
me this water so that I will not get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”"
John 4:14 But whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will beco
me in him a fount of water springing up to eternal life.”"
John 4:9 “You are a Jew,” said the woman. “How can You ask for a drink from
me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)"
John 4:7 When a Samaritan woman ca
me to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give
Me a drink.”"
John 4:5 So He ca
me to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
John 3:31 The One who co
mes from above is above all. The one who is from the earth belongs to the earth and speaks as one from the earth. The One who co
mes from heaven is above all.
John 3:26 So John’s disciples ca
me to him and said, “Look, Rabbi, the One who was with you beyond the Jordan, the One you testified about—He is baptizing, and everyone is going to Him.”"
John 3:22 After this, Jesus and His disciples went into the Judean countryside, where He spent so
me ti
me with them and baptized.
John 3:21 But whoever practices the truth co
mes into the Light, so that it may be seen clearly that what he has done has been accomplished in God.”"
John 3:20 Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not co
me into the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
John 3:19 And this is the verdict: The Light has co
me into the world, but
men loved the darkness rather than the Light because their deeds were evil.
John 3:18 Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the na
me of God’s one and only Son."
John 3:8 The wind blows where it wishes. You hear its sound, but you do not know where it co
mes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”"
John 3:4 “How can a man be born when he is old?” Nicodemus asked. “Can he enter his mother’s womb a second ti
me to be born?”"
John 3:2 He ca
me to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher who has co
me from God. For no one could perform the signs You are doing if God were not with him.”"
John 3:1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees na
med Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews.
John 2:23 While He was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the signs He was doing and believed in His na
me.
John 2:22 After He was raised from the dead, His disciples re
membered that He had said this. Then they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.
John 2:17 His disciples re
membered that it is written: “Zeal for Your house will consu
me Me.”"
John 2:14 In the temple courts He found
men selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers seated at their tables.
John 2:11 Jesus perfor
med this, the first of His signs, at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.
John 2:8 “Now draw so
me out,” He said, “and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,"
John 2:4 “Woman, why does this concern us?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet co
me.”"
John 1:48 “How do You know
me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus replied, “Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.”"
John 1:46 “Can anything good co
me from Nazareth?” Nathanael asked. “Co
me and see,” said Philip."
John 1:44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the sa
me town as Andrew and Peter.
John 1:43 The next day Jesus decided to set out for Galilee. Finding Philip, He told him, “Follow
Me.”"
♫ John 1:41 He first found his brother Simon and told him, “We have found the
Messiah” (which is translated as Christ)."
♫ John 1:39 “Co
me and see,” He replied. So they went and saw where He was staying, and spent that day with Him. It was about the tenth hour."
♫ John 1:38 Jesus turned and saw them following. “What do you want?” He asked. They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which
means Teacher), “where are You staying?”"
♫ John 1:33 I myself did not know Him, but the One who sent
me to baptize with water told
me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is He who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’"
♫ John 1:31 I myself did not know Him, but the reason I ca
me baptizing with water was that He might be revealed to Israel.”"
John 1:30 This is He of whom I said, ‘A man who co
mes after
me has surpassed
me because He was before
me.’"
John 1:27 He is the One who co
mes after
me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.”"
John 1:17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth ca
me through Jesus Christ.
♫ John 1:15 John testified concerning Him. He cried out, saying, “This is He of whom I said, ‘He who co
mes after
me has surpassed
me because He was before
me.’”"
♫ John 1:14 The Word beca
me flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
♫3 John 1:12 But to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His na
me, He gave the right to beco
me children of God—"
♫ John 1:11 He ca
me to His own, and His own did not receive Him.
♫ John 1:8 He himself was not the Light, but he ca
me to testify about the Light.
♫ John 1:7 He ca
me as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe.
♫ John 1:6 There ca
me a man who was sent from God. His na
me was John.
♫ John 1:5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overco
me it.
♫ John 1:4 In Him was life, and that life was the light of
men.
♫ Luke 24:47 and in His na
me repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclai
med to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem.
Luke 24:44 Jesus said to them, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about
Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms.”"
Luke 24:41 While they were still in disbelief because of their joy and amaze
ment, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”"
Luke 24:39 Look at My hands and My feet. It is I Myself. Touch
Me and see—for a spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”"
Luke 24:28 As they approached the village where they were headed, He see
med to be going farther.
Luke 24:24 Then so
me of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the wo
men had described. But Him they did not see.”"
Luke 24:23 but they did not find His body. They ca
me and told us they had seen a vision of angels, who said that Jesus was alive.
Luke 24:22 Furthermore, so
me of our wo
men astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning,
Luke 24:18 One of them, na
med Cleopas, asked Him, “Are You the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in recent days?”"
Luke 24:15 And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself ca
me up and walked along with them.
Luke 24:13 That sa
me day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.
Luke 24:11 But their words see
med like nonsense to them, and they did not believe the wo
men.
Luke 24:10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of Ja
mes, and the other wo
men with them who told this to the apostles.
Luke 24:7 ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful
men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’”"
Luke 24:6 He is not here; He has risen! Re
member how He told you while He was still in Galilee:
Luke 24:5 As the wo
men bowed their faces to the ground in terror, the two
men asked them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?"
Luke 24:4 While they were puzzling over this, suddenly two
men in radiant apparel stood beside them.
Luke 24:1 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the wo
men ca
me to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared.
Luke 23:56 Then they returned to prepare spices and perfu
mes. And they rested on the Sabbath, according to the command
ment.
Luke 23:55 The wo
men who had co
me with Jesus from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how His body was placed.
Luke 23:50 Now there was a Council
member na
med Joseph, a good and righteous man,
Luke 23:49 But all those who knew Jesus, including the wo
men who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.
Luke 23:48 And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned ho
me beating their breasts.
Luke 23:44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness ca
me over all the land until the ninth hour.
Luke 23:43 And Jesus said to him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with
Me in Paradise.”"
Luke 23:42 Then he said, “Jesus, re
member
me when You co
me into Your kingdom!”"
Luke 23:40 But the other one rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the sa
me judg
ment?"
Luke 23:36 The soldiers also mocked Him and ca
me up to offer Him sour wine.
Luke 23:34 Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up His gar
ments by casting lots."
Luke 23:33 When they ca
me to the place called The Skull, they crucified Him there, along with the criminals, one on His right and the other on His left.
Luke 23:31 For if
men do these things while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”"
Luke 23:30 At that ti
me ‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!”’"
Luke 23:29 Look, the days are coming when people will say, ‘Blessed are the barren wo
men, the wombs that never bore, and breasts that never nursed!’"
Luke 23:28 But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for
Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children."
Luke 23:27 A great number of people followed Him, including wo
men who kept mourning and wailing for Him.
Luke 23:24 So Pilate sentenced that their demand be
met.
Luke 23:22 A third ti
me he said to them, “What evil has this man done? I have found in Him no offense worthy of death. So after I punish Him, I will release Him.”"
Luke 23:14 and said to them, “You brought
me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined Him here in your presence and found Him not guilty of your charges against Him."
Luke 23:12 That day Herod and Pilate beca
me friends; before this ti
me they had been enemies.
Luke 23:10 Meanwhile, the chief priests and scribes stood there, vehe
mently accusing Him.
Luke 23:8 When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased. He had wanted to see Him for a long ti
me, because he had heard about Him and was hoping to see Him perform a miracle.
Luke 23:7 And learning that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself was in Jerusalem at that ti
me."
Luke 23:5 But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people all over Judea with His teaching. He began in Galilee and has co
me all the way here.”"
Luke 23:2 And they began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding pay
ment of taxes to Caesar, and proclaiming Himself to be Christ, a King.”"
Luke 22:66 At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and scribes,
met together. They led Jesus into their Sanhedrin and said,
Luke 22:63 The
men who were holding Jesus began to mock Him and beat Him.
Luke 22:61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter re
membered the word that the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny
Me three ti
mes.”"
Luke 22:58 A short ti
me later, so
meone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”"
Luke 22:53 Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on
Me. But this hour belongs to you and to the power of darkness.”"
Luke 22:52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, temple officers, and elders who had co
me for Him, “Have you co
me out with swords and clubs as you would against an outlaw?"
Luke 22:44 And in His anguish, He prayed more earnestly, and His sweat beca
me like drops of blood falling to the ground.
Luke 22:42 “Father, if You are willing, take this cup from
Me. Yet not My will, but Yours be done.”"
Luke 22:40 When He ca
me to the place, He told them, “Pray that you will not enter into temptation.”"
Luke 22:37 For I tell you that this Scripture must be fulfilled in
Me: ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For what is written about
Me is reaching its fulfill
ment.”"
Luke 22:34 But Jesus replied, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three ti
mes that you know
Me.”"
Luke 22:29 And I bestow on you a kingdom, just as My Father has bestowed one on
Me,
Luke 22:28 You are the ones who have stood by
Me in My trials.
Luke 22:20 In the sa
me way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is poured out for you."
Luke 22:19 And He took the bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body, given for you; do this in re
membrance of
Me.”"
Luke 22:18 For I tell you that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God co
mes.”"
Luke 22:14 When the hour had co
me, Jesus reclined at the table with His apostles.
Luke 22:10 He answered, “When you enter the city, a man carrying a jug of water will
meet you. Follow him to the house he enters,"
Luke 22:7 Then ca
me the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb was to be sacrificed.
Luke 21:38 And early in the morning all the people would co
me to hear Him at the temple.
Luke 21:36 So keep watch at all ti
mes, and pray that you may have the strength to escape all that is about to happen and to stand before the Son of Man.”"
♫ Luke 21:35 For it will co
me upon all who dwell on the face of all the earth.
Luke 21:30 When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that sum
mer is near.
Luke 21:27 At that ti
me they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
Luke 21:26 Men will faint from fear and anxiety over what is coming upon the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
Luke 21:24 They will fall by the edge of the sword and be led captive into all the nations. And Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the ti
mes of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
Luke 21:17 And you will be hated by everyone because of My na
me.
Luke 21:16 You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers and relatives and friends, and so
me of you will be put to death.
Luke 21:12 But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. On account of My na
me they will deliver you to the synagogues and prisons, and they will bring you before kings and governors.
Luke 21:9 When you hear of wars and rebellions, do not be alar
med. These things must happen first, but the end is not imminent.”"
Luke 21:8 Jesus answered, “See to it that you are not deceived. For many will co
me in My na
me, claiming, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The ti
me is near.’ Do not follow them."
Luke 21:6 “As for what you see here, the ti
me will co
me when not one stone will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”"
Luke 21:5 As so
me of the disciples were remarking how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and consecrated gifts, Jesus said,
Luke 20:47 They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These
men will receive greater condemnation.”"
Luke 20:39 So
me of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”"
Luke 20:35 But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to co
me and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage.
Luke 20:31 and the third married the widow, and in the sa
me way all seven died, leaving no children.
Luke 20:27 Then so
me of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, ca
me to question Him.
Luke 20:24 “Show
Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” “Caesar’s,” they answered."
Luke 20:17 But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “Then what is the
meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has beco
me the cornerstone’?"
Luke 20:16 He will co
me and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.” And when the people heard this, they said, “May such a thing never happen!”"
Luke 20:11 So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him sha
mefully, sending him away empty-handed.
Luke 20:10 At harvest ti
me, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed.
Luke 20:9 Then He proceeded to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to so
me tenants, and went away for a long ti
me."
Luke 20:6 But if we say, ‘From
men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”"
Luke 20:4 John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from
men?”"
Luke 20:3 “I will also ask you a question,” Jesus replied. “Tell
Me:"
Luke 20:1 One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the gospel, the chief priests and scribes, together with the elders, ca
me up to Him.
Luke 19:44 They will level you to the ground—you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the ti
me of your visitation from God.”"
Luke 19:43 For the days will co
me upon you when your enemies will barricade you and surround you and hem you in on every side.
Luke 19:39 But so
me of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples!”"
Luke 19:38 “Blessed is the King who co
mes in the na
me of the Lord!” “Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”"
Luke 19:27 And these enemies of mine who were unwilling for
me to rule over them, bring them here and slay them in front of
me.’”"
Luke 19:20 Then another servant ca
me and said, ‘Master, here is your mina, which I have laid away in a piece of cloth."
Luke 19:18 The second servant ca
me and said, ‘Master, your mina has made five minas.’"
Luke 19:16 The first servant ca
me forward and said, ‘Master, your mina has produced ten more minas.’"
Luke 19:10 For the Son of Man ca
me to seek and to save the lost.”"
♫ Luke 19:9 Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has co
me to this house, because this man too is a son of Abraham."
Luke 19:6 So Zacchaeus hurried down and welco
med Him joyfully.
Luke 19:5 When Jesus ca
me to that place, He looked up and said, “Zacchaeus, hurry down, for I must stay at your house today.”"
Luke 19:2 And there was a man na
med Zacchaeus, a chief tax collector, who was very wealthy.
Luke 18:43 Im
mediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, glorifying God. And all the people who saw this gave praise to God.
Luke 18:41 “What do you want
Me to do for you?” “Lord,” he said, “let
me see again.”"
Luke 18:39 Those who led the way admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have
mercy on
me!”"
Luke 18:38 So he called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have
mercy on
me!”"
Luke 18:34 But the disciples did not understand any of these things. The
meaning was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what He was saying.
Luke 18:30 will fail to receive many ti
mes more in this age—and in the age to co
me, eternal life.”"
Luke 18:29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left ho
me or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God"
Luke 18:25 Indeed, it is easier for a ca
mel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”"
Luke 18:23 But when the ruler heard this, he beca
me very sad, because he was extre
mely wealthy.
Luke 18:22 On hearing this, Jesus told him, “You still lack one thing: Sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then co
me, follow
Me.”"
Luke 18:20 You know the command
ments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honor your father and mother.’”"
Luke 18:19 “Why do you call
Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone."
Luke 18:16 But Jesus called the children to Him and said, “Let the little children co
me to
Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
♫ Luke 18:14 I tell you, this man, rather than the Pharisee, went ho
me justified. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”"
Luke 18:13 But the tax collector stood at a distance, unwilling even to lift up his eyes to heaven. Instead, he beat his breast and said, ‘God, have
mercy on
me, a sinner!’"
Luke 18:11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like the other
men—swindlers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector."
Luke 18:10 “Two
men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other a tax collector."
Luke 18:9 To so
me who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:
Luke 18:8 I tell you, He will promptly carry out justice on their behalf. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man co
mes, will He find faith on earth?”"
Luke 18:5 yet because this widow keeps pestering
me, I will give her justice. Then she will stop wearing
me out with her perpetual requests.’”"
Luke 18:4 For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect
men,"
Luke 18:3 And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give
me justice against my adversary.’"
Luke 18:2 “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected
men."
Luke 18:1 Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all ti
mes and not lose heart:
Luke 17:35 Two wo
men will be grinding grain together: one will be taken and the other left.”"
Luke 17:31 On that day, let no one on the housetop co
me down to retrieve his possessions. Likewise, let no one in the field return for anything he has left behind.
Luke 17:28 It was the sa
me in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.
Luke 17:27 People were eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood ca
me and destroyed them all.
Luke 17:22 Then He said to the disciples, “The ti
me is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it."
Luke 17:20 When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would co
me, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not co
me with observable signs."
Luke 17:15 When one of them saw that he was healed, he ca
me back, praising God in a loud voice.
Luke 17:13 and raised their voices, shouting, “Jesus, Master, have
mercy on us!”"
Luke 17:12 As He entered one of the villages, He was
met by ten lepers. They stood at a distance
Luke 17:8 Instead, won’t he tell him, ‘Prepare my
meal and dress yourself to serve
me while I eat and drink; and afterward you may eat and drink’?"
Luke 17:7 Which of you whose servant co
mes in from plowing or shepherding in the field will say to him, ‘Co
me at once and sit down to eat’?"
Luke 17:4 Even if he sins against you seven ti
mes in a day, and seven ti
mes returns to say, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”"
Luke 17:1 Jesus said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks will co
me, but woe to the one through whom they co
me!"
Luke 16:31 Then Abraham said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if so
meone rises from the dead.’”"
Luke 16:30 ‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if so
meone is sent to them from the dead, they will repent.’"
Luke 16:28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also end up in this place of tor
ment.’"
Luke 16:25 But Abraham answered, ‘Child, re
member that during your lifeti
me you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things. But now he is comforted here, while you are in agony."
Luke 16:24 So he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have
mercy on
me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. For I am in agony in this fire.’"
Luke 16:23 In Hades, where he was in tor
ment, he looked up and saw Abraham from afar, with Lazarus by his side.
Luke 16:21 and longing to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs ca
me and licked his sores."
Luke 16:20 And a beggar na
med Lazarus lay at his gate, covered with sores
Luke 16:16 The Law and the Prophets were proclai
med until John. Since that ti
me, the gospel of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
Luke 16:15 So He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves before
men, but God knows your hearts. For what is prized among
men is detestable before God."
Luke 16:9 I tell you, use worldly wealth to make friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, they will welco
me you into eternal dwellings.
Luke 16:8 The master com
mended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light.
Luke 16:7 Then he asked another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ ‘A hundred
measures of wheat,’ he replied. ‘Take your bill and write eighty,’ he told him."
Luke 16:6 ‘A hundred
measures of olive oil,’ he answered. ‘Take your bill,’ said the manager. ‘Sit down quickly, and write fifty.’"
Luke 16:4 I know what I will do, so that after my removal from manage
ment, people will welco
me me into their ho
mes.’"
Luke 16:3 The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do, now that my master is taking away my position? I am too weak to dig and too asha
med to beg."
Luke 16:2 So he called him in to ask, ‘What is this I hear about you? Turn in an account of your manage
ment, for you cannot be manager any longer.’"
Luke 15:31 ‘Son, you are always with
me,’ the father said, ‘and all that is mine is yours."
Luke 15:29 But he answered his father, ‘Look, all these years I have served you and never disobeyed a command
ment of yours. Yet you never gave
me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends."
Luke 15:28 The older son beca
me angry and refused to go in. So his father ca
me out and pleaded with him.
Luke 15:25 Meanwhile the older son was in the field, and as he approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
Luke 15:19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make
me like one of your hired servants.”’"
Luke 15:17 Finally he ca
me to his senses and said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have plenty of food? But here I am, starving to death!"
Luke 15:12 The younger son said to him, ‘Father, give
me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them."
Luke 15:10 In the sa
me way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”"
Luke 15:9 And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors to say, ‘Rejoice with
me, for I have found my lost coin.’"
Luke 15:7 In the sa
me way, I tell you that there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous ones who do not need to repent.
Luke 15:6 co
mes ho
me, and calls together his friends and neighbors to tell them, ‘Rejoice with
me, for I have found my lost sheep!’"
Luke 15:2 So the Pharisees and scribes began to grumble: “This man welco
mes sinners and eats with them.”"
Luke 14:33 In the sa
me way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.
Luke 14:31 Or what king on his way to war with another king will not first sit down and consider whether he can engage with ten thousand
men the one coming against him with twenty thousand?
Luke 14:27 And whoever does not carry his cross and follow
Me cannot be My disciple.
Luke 14:26 “If anyone co
mes to
Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be My disciple."
Luke 14:24 For I tell you, not one of those
men who were invited will taste my banquet.’”"
Luke 14:23 So the master told his servant, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel them to co
me in, so that my house will be full."
Luke 14:21 The servant returned and reported all this to his master. Then the owner of the house beca
me angry and said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the city, and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the la
me.’"
Luke 14:20 Still another said, ‘I have married a wife, so I cannot co
me.’"
Luke 14:19 Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out. Please excuse
me.’"
Luke 14:18 But one after another they all began to make excuses. The first one said, ‘I have bought a field, and I need to go see it. Please excuse
me.’"
Luke 14:17 When it was ti
me for the banquet, he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Co
me, for everything is now ready.’"
Luke 14:13 But when you host a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the la
me, and the blind,
Luke 14:10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the last place, so that your host will co
me and tell you, ‘Friend, move up to a better place.’ Then you will be honored in front of everyone at the table with you."
Luke 14:9 Then the host who invited both of you will co
me and tell you, ‘Give this man your seat.’ And in humiliation, you will have to take the last place."
Luke 14:8 “When you are invited to a wedding banquet, do not sit in the place of honor, in case so
meone more distinguished than you has been invited."
Luke 14:5 And He asked them, “Which of you whose son or ox falls into a pit on the Sabbath day will not im
mediately pull him out?”"
Luke 14:1 One Sabbath, Jesus went to eat in the ho
me of a leading Pharisee, and those in attendance were watching Him closely.
Luke 13:35 Look, your house is left to you desolate. And I tell you that you will not see
Me again until you say, ‘Blessed is He who co
mes in the na
me of the Lord.’”"
Luke 13:31 At that very hour, so
me Pharisees ca
me to Jesus and told Him, “Leave this place and get away, because Herod wants to kill You.”"
Luke 13:30 And indeed, so
me who are last will be first, and so
me who are first will be last.”"
Luke 13:29 People will co
me from east and west and north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.
Luke 13:27 And he will answer, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you are from. Depart from
me, all you evildoers.’"
Luke 13:23 “Lord,” so
meone asked Him, “will only a few people be saved?” Jesus answered,"
Luke 13:21 It is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three
measures of flour, until all of it was leavened.”"
Luke 13:19 It is like a mustard seed that a man tossed into his garden. It grew and beca
me a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”"
Luke 13:14 But the synagogue leader was indignant that Jesus had healed on the Sabbath. “There are six days for work,” he told the crowd. “So co
me and be healed on those days and not on the Sabbath.”"
Luke 13:13 Then He placed His hands on her, and im
mediately she straightened up and began to glorify God.
Luke 13:7 So he said to the keeper of the vineyard, ‘Look, for the past three years I have co
me to search for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Therefore cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’"
Luke 13:1 At that ti
me so
me of those present told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
Luke 12:56 You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and sky. Why don’t you know how to interpret the present ti
me?"
Luke 12:51 Do you think that I have co
me to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division.
Luke 12:49 I have co
me to ignite a fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!
Luke 12:48 But the one who unknowingly does things worthy of punish
ment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded.
Luke 12:46 The master of that servant will co
me on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate. Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.
Luke 12:45 But suppose that servant says in his heart, ‘My master will be a long ti
me in coming,’ and he begins to beat the
menservants and maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk."
Luke 12:42 And the Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their portion at the proper ti
me?"
Luke 12:40 You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will co
me at an hour you do not expect.”"
Luke 12:39 But understand this: If the ho
meowner had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.
Luke 12:38 Even if he co
mes in the second or third watch of the night and finds them alert, those servants will be blessed.
Luke 12:37 Blessed are those servants whom the master finds on watch when he returns. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve and will have them recline at the table, and he himself will co
me and wait on them.
Luke 12:36 Then you will be like servants waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet, so that when he co
mes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once.
Luke 12:19 Then I will say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take it easy. Eat, drink, and be
merry!”’"
Luke 12:14 But Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed
Me judge or executor between you?”"
Luke 12:13 So
meone in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with
me.”"
Luke 12:12 For at that ti
me the Holy Spirit will teach you what you should say.”"
Luke 12:10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever blasphe
mes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
Luke 12:9 But whoever denies
Me before
men will be denied before the angels of God.
Luke 12:8 I tell you, everyone who confesses
Me before
men, the Son of Man will also confess him before the angels of God.
Luke 12:3 What you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclai
med from the housetops.
♫ Luke 12:1 In the
meanti
me, a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling one another. Jesus began to speak first to His disciples: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy."
Luke 11:54 waiting to catch Him in so
mething He might say.
Luke 11:49 Because of this, the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; so
me of them they will kill and others they will persecute.’"
Luke 11:46 “Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “You weigh
men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load."
Luke 11:44 Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which
men walk over without even noticing.”"
Luke 11:42 Woe to you Pharisees! You pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the for
mer.
Luke 11:38 But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the
meal.
Luke 11:32 The
men of Nineveh will stand at the judg
ment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now One greater than Jonah is here.
Luke 11:31 The Queen of the South will rise at the judg
ment with the
men of this generation and condemn them; for she ca
me from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and now One greater than Solomon is here.
Luke 11:24 When an unclean spirit co
mes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’"
Luke 11:23 He who is not with
Me is against
Me, and he who does not gather with
Me scatters.
Luke 11:22 But when so
meone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted, and then he divides up his plunder.
Luke 11:21 When a strong man, fully ar
med, guards his house, his possessions are secure.
Luke 11:20 But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has co
me upon you.
Luke 11:15 but so
me of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”"
Luke 11:7 And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Do not bother
me. My door is already shut, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’"
Luke 11:6 because a friend of mine has co
me to
me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’"
Luke 11:5 Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend
me three loaves of bread,"
Luke 11:2 So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your na
me. Your kingdom co
me."
Luke 10:40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations to be made. She ca
me to Jesus and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left
me to serve alone? Tell her to help
me!”"
Luke 10:39 She had a sister na
med Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to His
message."
Luke 10:38 As they traveled along, Jesus entered a village where a woman na
med Martha welco
med Him into her ho
me.
Luke 10:37 “The one who showed him
mercy,” replied the expert in the law. Then Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”"
Luke 10:33 But when a Samaritan on a journey ca
me upon him, he looked at him and had compassion.
Luke 10:32 So too, when a Levite ca
me to that spot and saw him, he passed by on the other side.
Luke 10:31 Now by chance a priest was going down the sa
me road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
Luke 10:22 All things have been entrusted to
Me by My Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.”"
Luke 10:21 At that ti
me Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and declared, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was well-pleasing in Your sight."
Luke 10:20 Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your na
mes are written in heaven.”"
Luke 10:17 The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in Your na
me.”"
Luke 10:16 Whoever listens to you listens to
Me; whoever rejects you rejects
Me; and whoever rejects
Me rejects the One who sent
Me.”"
Luke 10:14 But it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon at the judg
ment than for you.
Luke 10:13 Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were perfor
med in you had been perfor
med in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
Luke 10:10 But if you enter a town and they do not welco
me you, go into the streets and declare,
Luke 10:8 If you enter a town and they welco
me you, eat whatever is set before you.
Luke 10:7 Stay at the sa
me house, eating and drinking whatever you are offered. For the worker is worthy of his wages. Do not move around from house to house.
Luke 9:61 Still another said, “I will follow You, Lord; but first let
me bid farewell to my family.”"
Luke 9:59 Then He said to another man, “Follow
Me.” The man replied, “Lord, first let
me go and bury my father.”"
Luke 9:57 As they were walking along the road, so
meone said to Jesus, “I will follow You wherever You go.”"
Luke 9:54 When the disciples Ja
mes and John saw this, they asked, “Lord, do You want us to call down fire from heaven to consu
me them?”"
Luke 9:53 But the people there refused to welco
me Him, because He was heading for Jerusalem.
Luke 9:52 He sent
messengers on ahead, who went into a village of the Samaritans to make arrange
ments for Him.
Luke 9:49 “Master,” said John, “we saw so
meone driving out demons in Your na
me, and we tried to stop him, because he does not accompany us.”"
Luke 9:48 And He said to them, “Whoever welco
mes this little child in My na
me welco
mes
Me, and whoever welco
mes
Me welco
mes the One who sent
Me. For whoever is the least among all of you, he is the greatest.”"
Luke 9:46 Then an argu
ment started among the disciples as to which of them would be the greatest.
Luke 9:45 But they did not understand this state
ment. It was veiled from them so that they could not comprehend it, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
Luke 9:44 “Let these words sink into your ears: The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of
men.”"
Luke 9:42 Even while the boy was approaching, the demon slam
med him to the ground in a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
Luke 9:37 The next day, when they ca
me down from the mountain, Jesus was
met by a large crowd.
Luke 9:35 And a voice ca
me from the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, whom I have chosen. Listen to Him!”"
♫ Luke 9:32 Meanwhile Peter and his companions were overco
me by sleep, but when they awoke, they saw Jesus’ glory and the two
men standing with Him."
♫ Luke 9:30 Suddenly two
men, Moses and Elijah, began talking with Jesus.
♫ Luke 9:29 And as He was praying, the appearance of His face changed, and His clothes beca
me radiantly white.
♫ Luke 9:28 About eight days after Jesus had said these things, He took with Him Peter, John, and Ja
mes, and went up on a mountain to pray.
♫ Luke 9:27 But I tell you truthfully, so
me who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”"
Luke 9:26 If anyone is asha
med of
Me and My words, the Son of Man will be asha
med of him when He co
mes in His glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
Luke 9:23 Then Jesus said to all of them, “If anyone wants to co
me after
Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow
Me."
♫2 Luke 9:19 They replied, “So
me say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, that a prophet of old has arisen.”"
Luke 9:14 (There were about five thousand
men.) He told His disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”"
Luke 9:13 But Jesus told them, “You give them so
mething to eat.” “We have only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered, “unless we go and buy food for all these people.”"
Luke 9:12 As the day neared its end, the Twelve ca
me to Jesus and said, “Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding villages and countryside for lodging and provisions. For we are in a desolate place here.”"
Luke 9:11 But the crowds found out and followed Him. He welco
med them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and He healed those who needed healing.
Luke 9:7 When Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was happening, he was perplexed. For so
me were saying that John had risen from the dead,
Luke 9:5 If anyone does not welco
me you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that town, as a testimony against them.”"
Luke 8:55 Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given so
mething to eat.
Luke 8:52 Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”"
Luke 8:51 When He entered the house, He did not allow anyone to go in with Him except Peter, John, Ja
mes, and the child’s father and mother."
Luke 8:49 While He was still speaking, so
meone arrived from the house of the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” he told Jairus. “Do not bother the Teacher anymore.”"
Luke 8:47 Then the woman, seeing that she could not escape notice, ca
me trembling and fell down before Him. In the presence of all the people, she explained why she had touched Him and how she had im
mediately been healed.
Luke 8:46 But Jesus declared, “So
meone touched
Me, for I know that power has gone out from
Me.”"
Luke 8:45 “Who touched
Me?” Jesus asked. But they all denied it. “Master,” said Peter, “the people are crowding and pressing against You.”"
Luke 8:44 She ca
me up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of His cloak, and im
mediately her bleeding stopped.
Luke 8:41 Just then a synagogue leader na
med Jairus ca
me and fell at Jesus’ feet. He begged Him to co
me to his house,"
Luke 8:40 When Jesus returned, the crowd welco
med Him, for they had all been waiting for Him.
Luke 8:39 “Return ho
me and describe how much God has done for you.” So the man went away and proclai
med all over the town how much Jesus had done for him."
Luke 8:36 Meanwhile, those who had seen it reported how the demon-possessed man had been healed.
Luke 8:35 So the people went out to see what had happened. They ca
me to Jesus and found the man whom the demons had left, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid."
Luke 8:33 Then the demons ca
me out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.
Luke 8:30 “What is your na
me?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him."
Luke 8:29 For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to co
me out of the man. Many ti
mes it had seized him, and though he was bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and been driven by the demon into solitary places.
Luke 8:28 When the man saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him, shouting in a loud voice, “What do You want with
me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You not to torture
me!”"
Luke 8:27 When Jesus stepped ashore, He was
met by a demon-possessed man from the town. For a long ti
me this man had not worn clothing or lived in a house, but he stayed in the tombs.
Luke 8:23 As they sailed, He fell asleep, and a windstorm ca
me down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.
Luke 8:19 Then Jesus’ mother and brothers ca
me to see Him, but they were unable to reach Him because of the crowd."
Luke 8:13 The seeds on rocky ground are those who hear the word and receive it with joy, but they have no root. They believe for a season, but in the ti
me of testing, they fall away.
Luke 8:12 The seeds along the path are those who hear, but the devil co
mes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved.
Luke 8:11 Now this is the
meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.
Luke 8:9 Then His disciples asked Him what this parable
meant.
Luke 8:6 So
me fell on rocky ground, and when it ca
me up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.
Luke 8:5 “A far
mer went out to sow his seed. And as he was sowing, so
me seed fell along the path, where it was trampled, and the birds of the air devoured it."
Luke 8:3 Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These wo
men were ministering to them out of their own
means."
Luke 8:2 as well as so
me wo
men who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,
Luke 7:46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with perfu
me.
Luke 7:45 You did not greet
Me with a kiss, but she has not stopped kissing My feet since I arrived.
Luke 7:44 And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give
Me water for My feet, but she wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair."
Luke 7:41 “Two
men were debtors to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty."
Luke 7:40 But Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have so
mething to tell you.” “Tell
me, Teacher,” he said."
Luke 7:38 As she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and wipe them with her hair. Then she kissed His feet and anointed them with the perfu
me.
Luke 7:37 When a sinful woman from that town learned that Jesus was dining there, she brought an alabaster jar of perfu
me.
Luke 7:34 The Son of Man ca
me eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’"
Luke 7:33 For John the Baptist ca
me neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’"
Luke 7:31 “To what, then, can I compare the
men of this generation? What are they like?"
Luke 7:28 I tell you, among those born of wo
men there is no one greater than John, yet even the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”"
Luke 7:27 This is the one about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I will send My
messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.’"
Luke 7:24 After John’s
messengers had left, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?"
Luke 7:23 Blessed is the one who does not fall away on account of
Me.”"
Luke 7:22 So He replied, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the la
me walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor."
Luke 7:20 When the
men ca
me to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to ask, ‘Are You the One who was to co
me, or should we look for so
meone else?’”"
Luke 7:19 So John called two of his disciples and sent them to ask the Lord, “Are You the One who was to co
me, or should we look for so
meone else?”"
Luke 7:18 Then John’s disciples infor
med him about all these things."
Luke 7:10 And when the
messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.
Luke 7:8 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under
me. I tell one to go, and he goes; and another to co
me, and he co
mes. I tell my servant to do so
mething, and he does it.”"
Luke 7:7 That is why I did not consider myself worthy to co
me to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
Luke 7:6 So Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with the
message: “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You co
me under my roof."
Luke 7:4 They ca
me to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,"
Luke 7:3 When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent so
me Jewish elders to ask Him to co
me and heal his servant.
Luke 6:49 But the one who hears My words and does not act on them is like a man who built his house on ground without a foundation. The torrent crashed against that house, and im
mediately it fell—and great was its destruction!”"
Luke 6:48 He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid his foundation on the rock. When the flood ca
me, the torrent crashed against that house but could not shake it, because it was well built.
Luke 6:47 I will show you what he is like who co
mes to
Me and hears My words and acts on them:
Luke 6:46 Why do you call
Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ but not do what I say?"
Luke 6:42 How can you say, ‘Brother, let

Mark 14:60 So the high priest stood up before them and questioned Jesus, “Have You no answer? What are these
men testifying against You?”"
Mark 14:57 Then so

Mark 14:54 Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the officers and war

Mark 14:49 Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest

Mark 14:48 Jesus asked the crowd, “Have you co

Me as you would an outlaw?"
Mark 14:46 Then the
men seized Jesus and arrested Him.
Mark 14:43 While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a crowd ar

Mark 14:41 When Jesus returned the third ti

Mark 14:39 Again He went away and prayed, saying the sa

Mark 14:36 “Abba, Father,” He said, “all things are possible for You. Take this cup from

Mark 14:34 Then He said to them, “My soul is consu

Mark 14:33 He took with Him Peter, Ja

Mark 14:31 But Peter kept insisting, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the others said the sa
me thing."
Mark 14:30 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny
Me three ti

Mark 14:20 He answered, “It is one of the Twelve—the one who is dipping his hand into the bowl with
Me."
Mark 14:18 And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with
Me will betray
Me.”"
Mark 14:17 When evening ca

Mark 14:13 So He sent two of His disciples and told them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jug of water will

Mark 14:6 But Jesus said, “Leave her alone; why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful deed to
Me."
Mark 14:4 So
me of those present, however, expressed their indignation to one another: “Why this waste of perfu

Mark 14:3 While Jesus was in Bethany reclining at the table in the ho

Mark 13:33 Be on your guard and stay alert! For you do not know when the appointed ti

Mark 13:21 At that ti

Mark 13:13 You will be hated by everyone because of My na

Mark 13:11 But when they arrest you and hand you over, do not worry beforehand what to say. Instead, speak whatever you are given at that ti

Mark 13:10 And the gospel must first be proclai

Mark 13:7 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alar

Mark 13:6 Many will co

Mark 13:3 While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, Ja

Mark 12:42 Then one poor widow ca
me and put in two small copper coins, which amounted to a small fraction of a denarius.
Mark 12:40 They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These
men will receive greater condemnation.”"
Mark 12:31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other command
ment is greater than these.”"
Mark 12:28 Now one of the scribes had co
me up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which command
ment is the most important of all?”"
Mark 12:18 Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, ca
me to Jesus and questioned Him:
Mark 12:15 But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing
Me? Bring
Me a denarius to inspect.”"
Mark 12:13 Later, they sent so
me of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.
Mark 12:10 Have you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has beco
me the cornerstone."
Mark 12:9 What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will co
me and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.
Mark 12:7 But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Co
me, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’"
Mark 12:5 He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; so
me they beat and others they killed.
Mark 12:4 Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him sha
mefully.
Mark 12:2 At harvest ti
me, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
Mark 12:1 Then Jesus began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a wine vat, and built a watchtower. Then he rented it out to so
me tenants and went away on a journey."
Mark 11:32 But if we say, ‘From
men’...” they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John truly was a prophet."
Mark 11:30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven or from
men? Answer
Me!”"
Mark 11:29 “I will ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer
Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things."
Mark 11:27 After their return to Jerusalem, Jesus was walking in the temple courts, and the chief priests, scribes, and elders ca
me up to Him.
Mark 11:21 Peter re
membered it and said, “Look, Rabbi! The fig tree You cursed has withered.”"
Mark 11:19 And when evening ca
me, Jesus and His disciples went out of the city.
Mark 11:16 And He would not allow anyone to carry
merchandise through the temple courts.
Mark 11:14 Then He said to the tree, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again.” And His disciples heard this state
ment."
Mark 11:9 The ones who went ahead and those who followed were shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who co
mes in the na
me of the Lord!”"
Mark 11:5 and so
me who were standing there asked, “Why are you untying the colt?”"
Mark 11:1 As they approached Jerusalem and ca
me to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two of His disciples
Mark 10:52 “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.” And im
mediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road."
Mark 10:51 “What do you want
Me to do for you?” Jesus asked. “Rabboni,” said the blind man, “let
me see again.”"
Mark 10:50 Throwing off his cloak, Bartimaeus jumped up and ca
me to Jesus.
Mark 10:48 Many people admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have
mercy on
me!”"
Mark 10:47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Jesus, Son of David, have
mercy on
me!”"
Mark 10:46 Next, they ca
me to Jericho. And as Jesus and His disciples were leaving Jericho with a large crowd, a blind beggar na
med Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting beside the road.
Mark 10:45 For even the Son of Man did not co
me to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”"
Mark 10:43 But it shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to beco
me great among you must be your servant,
Mark 10:41 When the ten heard about this, they beca
me indignant with Ja
mes and John.
Mark 10:36 “What do you want
Me to do for you?” He inquired."
Mark 10:35 Then Ja
mes and John, the sons of Zebedee, ca
me to Jesus and declared, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask.”"
Mark 10:30 will fail to receive a hundredfold in the present age—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and fields, along with persecutions—and in the age to co
me, eternal life."
Mark 10:29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left ho
me or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for My sake and for the gospel"
Mark 10:25 It is easier for a ca
mel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”"
Mark 10:21 Jesus looked at him, loved him, and said to him, “There is one thing you lack: Go, sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then co
me, follow
Me.”"
Mark 10:19 You know the command
ments: ‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness, do not cheat others, honor your father and mother.’”"
Mark 10:18 “Why do you call
Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone."
Mark 10:14 But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and told them, “Let the little children co
me to
Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
Mark 10:8 and the two will beco
me one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh."
Mark 10:5 But Jesus told them, “Moses wrote this command
ment for you because of your hardness of heart."
Mark 10:2 So
me Pharisees ca
me to test Him. “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?” they inquired."
Mark 10:1 Then Jesus left that place and went into the region of Judea, beyond the Jordan. Again the crowds ca
me to Him and He taught them, as was His custom.
Mark 9:45 If your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life la
me than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.
Mark 9:42 But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in
Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea.
Mark 9:41 Indeed, if anyone gives you even a cup of water because you bear the na
me of Christ, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.
Mark 9:39 “Do not stop him,” Jesus replied. “For no one who performs a miracle in My na
me can turn around and speak evil of
Me."
Mark 9:38 John said to Him, “Teacher, we saw so
meone else driving out demons in Your na
me, and we tried to stop him, because he does not accompany us.”"
Mark 9:37 “Whoever welco
mes one of these little children in My na
me welco
mes
Me, and whoever welco
mes
Me welco
mes not only
Me, but the One who sent
Me.”"
Mark 9:33 Then they ca
me to Capernaum. While Jesus was in the house, He asked them, “What were you discussing on the way?”"
Mark 9:32 But they did not understand this state
ment, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
Mark 9:31 because He was teaching His disciples. He told them, “The Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of
men. They will kill Him, and after three days He will rise.”"
Mark 9:29 Jesus answered, “This kind cannot co
me out, except by prayer.”"
Mark 9:26 After shrieking and convulsing him violently, the spirit ca
me out. The boy beca
me like a corpse, so that many said, “He is dead.”"
Mark 9:25 When Jesus saw that a crowd had co
me running, He rebuked the unclean spirit. “You deaf and mute spirit,” He said, “I command you to co
me out and never enter him again.”"
Mark 9:24 Im
mediately the boy’s father cried out, “I do believe; help my unbelief!”"
Mark 9:20 So they brought him, and seeing Jesus, the spirit im
mediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.
Mark 9:19 “O unbelieving generation!” Jesus replied. “How long must I remain with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to
Me.”"
Mark 9:18 Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and beco
mes rigid. I asked Your disciples to drive it out, but they were unable.”"
Mark 9:17 So
meone in the crowd replied, “Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a spirit that makes him mute."
Mark 9:13 But I tell you that Elijah has indeed co
me, and they have done to him whatever they wished, just as it is written about him.”"
Mark 9:12 He replied, “Elijah does indeed co
me first, and he restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected?"
Mark 9:11 And they asked Jesus, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must co
me first?”"
Mark 9:10 So they kept this matter to themselves, discussing what it
meant to rise from the dead.
Mark 9:7 Then a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and a voice ca
me from the cloud: “This is My beloved Son. Listen to Him!”"
♫ Mark 9:3 His clothes beca
me radiantly white, brighter than any launderer on earth could bleach them.
♫ Mark 9:2 After six days Jesus took with Him Peter, Ja
mes, and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There He was transfigured before them.
♫ Mark 9:1 Then Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, there are so
me standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God arrive with power.”"
Mark 8:38 If anyone is asha
med of
Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be asha
med of him when He co
mes in His Father’s glory with the holy angels.”"
Mark 8:34 Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples, and He told them, “If anyone wants to co
me after
Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow
Me."
Mark 8:33 But Jesus, turning and looking at His disciples, rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind
Me, Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of
men.”"
Mark 8:32 He spoke this
message quite frankly, and Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.
Mark 8:28 They replied, “So
me say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”"
Mark 8:26 Jesus sent him ho
me and said, “Do not go back into the village.”"
Mark 8:22 When they arrived at Bethsaida, so
me people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him.
Mark 8:18 ‘Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?’ And do you not re
member?"
Mark 8:11 Then the Pharisees ca
me and began to argue with Jesus, testing Him by demanding from Him a sign from heaven.
Mark 8:9 And about four thousand
men were present. As soon as Jesus had dismissed the crowd,
Mark 8:3 If I send them ho
me hungry, they will faint along the way. For so
me of them have co
me a great distance.”"
Mark 8:2 “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with
Me three days and have nothing to eat."
Mark 8:1 In those days the crowd once again beca
me very large, and they had nothing to eat. Jesus called the disciples to Him and said,
Mark 7:36 Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone. But the more He ordered them, the more widely they proclai
med it.
Mark 7:35 Im
mediately the man’s ears were opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak plainly."
Mark 7:34 And looking up to heaven, He sighed deeply and said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which
means, “Be opened!”)."
Mark 7:32 So
me people brought to Him a man who was deaf and hardly able to speak, and they begged Jesus to place His hand on him.
Mark 7:30 And she went ho
me and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon was gone.
Mark 7:25 Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she ca
me and fell at His feet.
Mark 7:23 All these evils co
me from within, and these are what defile a man.”"
Mark 7:21 For from within the hearts of
men co
me evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
Mark 7:20 He continued: “What co
mes out of a man, that is what defiles him."
Mark 7:15 Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him; but the things that co
me out of a man, these are what defile him.”"
Mark 7:14 Once again Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “All of you, listen to
Me and understand:"
Mark 7:11 But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from
me is Corban’ (that is, a gift devoted to God),"
Mark 7:8 You have disregarded the command
ment of God to keep the tradition of
men.”"
Mark 7:7 They worship
Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of
men.’"
Mark 7:6 Jesus answered them, “Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘These people honor
Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from
Me."
Mark 7:2 and they saw so
me of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed."
Mark 7:1 Then the Pharisees and so
me of the scribes who had co
me from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus,
Mark 6:47 When evening ca
me, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.
Mark 6:45 Im
mediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.
Mark 6:44 And there were five thousand
men who had eaten the loaves.
Mark 6:37 But Jesus told them, “You give them so
mething to eat.” They asked Him, “Should we go out and spend two hundred denarii to give all of them bread to eat?”"
Mark 6:36 Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves so
mething to eat.”"
Mark 6:35 By now the hour was already late. So the disciples ca
me to Jesus and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late."
Mark 6:31 And He said to them, “Co
me with
Me privately to a solitary place, and let us rest for a while.” For many people were coming and going, and they did not even have ti
me to eat."
Mark 6:30 Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.
Mark 6:29 When John’s disciples heard about this, they ca
me and took his body and placed it in a tomb."
Mark 6:26 The king was consu
med with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.
Mark 6:25 At once the girl hurried back to the king with her request: “I want you to give
me the head of John the Baptist on a platter im
mediately.”"
Mark 6:23 And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of
me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”"
Mark 6:22 When the daughter of Herodias ca
me and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests, and the king said to the girl, “Ask
me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.”"
Mark 6:21 On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading
men of Galilee."
Mark 6:14 Now King Herod heard about this, for Jesus’ na
me had beco
me well known, and people were saying, “John the Baptist has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”"
Mark 6:11 If anyone will not welco
me you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that place, as a testimony against them.”"
Mark 6:4 Then Jesus said to them, “Only in his ho
metown, among his relatives, and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”"
Mark 6:3 Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of Ja
mes, Joses, Judas, and Simon? Aren’t His sisters here with us as well?” And they took offense at Him."
Mark 6:2 When the Sabbath ca
me, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these ideas?” they asked. “What is this wisdom He has been given? And how can He perform such miracles?"
Mark 6:1 Jesus went on from there and ca
me to His ho
metown, accompanied by His disciples.
Mark 5:43 Then Jesus gave strict orders that no one should know about this, and He told them to give her so
mething to eat.
Mark 5:42 Im
mediately the girl got up and began to walk around. She was twelve years old, and at once they were utterly astounded.
Mark 5:41 Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which
means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”"
Mark 5:37 And He did not allow anyone to accompany Him except Peter, Ja
mes, and John the brother of Ja
mes.
Mark 5:35 While He was still speaking,
messengers from the house of Jairus arrived and said, “Your daughter is dead; why bother the Teacher anymore?”"
Mark 5:33 Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, ca
me and fell down before Him trembling in fear, and she told Him the whole truth.
Mark 5:31 His disciples answered, “You can see the crowd pressing in on You, and yet You ask, ‘Who touched
Me?’”"
Mark 5:30 At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him. Turning to the crowd, He asked, “Who touched My gar
ments?”"
Mark 5:29 Im
mediately her bleeding stopped, and she sensed in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
Mark 5:28 For she kept saying, “If only I touch His gar
ments, I will be healed.”"
Mark 5:27 When the woman heard about Jesus, she ca
me up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.
Mark 5:23 and pleaded with Him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Please co
me and place Your hands on her, so that she will be healed and live.”"
Mark 5:22 A synagogue leader na
med Jairus arrived, and seeing Jesus, he fell at His feet
Mark 5:19 But Jesus would not allow him. “Go ho
me to your own people,” He said, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what
mercy He has shown you.”"
Mark 5:15 When they ca
me to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons sitting there, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
Mark 5:13 He gave them permission, and the unclean spirits ca
me out and went into the pigs, and the herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the water.
Mark 5:9 “What is your na
me?” Jesus asked. “My na
me is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”"
Mark 5:8 For Jesus had already declared, “Co
me out of this man, you unclean spirit!”"
Mark 5:7 And he shouted in a loud voice, “What do You want with
me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You before God not to torture
me!”"
Mark 5:2 As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, He was
met by a man with an unclean spirit, who was coming from the tombs.
Mark 4:41 Overwhel
med with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”"
Mark 4:37 Soon a violent windstorm ca
me up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.
Mark 4:35 When that evening ca
me, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”"
Mark 4:29 And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has co
me.”"
Mark 4:24 He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the
measure you use, it will be
measured to you, and even more will be added to you."
Mark 4:19 but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things co
me in and choke the word, and it beco
mes unfruitful.
Mark 4:17 But they themselves have no root, and they remain for only a season. When trouble or persecution co
mes because of the word, they quickly fall away.
Mark 4:16 So
me are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.
Mark 4:15 So
me are like the seeds along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan co
mes and takes away the word that was sown in them.
Mark 4:5 So
me fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.
Mark 4:4 And as he was sowing, so
me seed fell along the path, and the birds ca
me and devoured it.
Mark 4:3 “Listen! A far
mer went out to sow his seed."
Mark 3:31 Then Jesus’ mother and brothers ca
me and stood outside. They sent so
meone in to summon Him,"
Mark 3:30 Jesus made this state
ment because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”"
Mark 3:29 But whoever blasphe
mes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of eternal sin.”"
Mark 3:28 Truly I tell you, the sons of
men will be forgiven all sins and blasphemies, as many as they utter.
Mark 3:26 And if Satan is divided and rises against himself, he cannot stand; his end has co
me.
Mark 3:22 And the scribes who had co
me down from Jerusalem were saying, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and, “By the prince of the demons He drives out demons.”"
Mark 3:20 Then Jesus went ho
me, and once again a crowd gathered, so that He and His disciples could not even eat.
Mark 3:18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholo
mew, Matthew, Thomas, Ja
mes son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot,
Mark 3:17 Ja
mes son of Zebedee and his brother John (whom He na
med Boanerges,
meaning “Sons of Thunder”),"
Mark 3:16 These are the twelve He appointed: Simon (whom He na
med Peter),
Mark 3:13 Then Jesus went up on the mountain and called for those He wanted, and they ca
me to Him.
Mark 3:8 Jerusalem, Idu
mea, the region beyond the Jordan, and the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon. The large crowd ca
me to Him when they heard what great things He was doing.
Mark 2:26 During the high priesthood of Abiathar, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which was lawful only for the priests. And he gave so
me to his companions as well.”"
Mark 2:21 No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old gar
ment. If he does, the new piece will pull away from the old, and a worse tear will result.
Mark 2:20 But the ti
me will co
me when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.
Mark 2:18 Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were often fasting. So people ca
me to Jesus and asked, “Why don’t Your disciples fast like John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees?”"
Mark 2:17 On hearing this, Jesus told them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not co
me to call the righteous, but sinners.”"
Mark 2:14 As He was walking along, He saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax booth. “Follow
Me,” He told him, and Levi got up and followed Him."
Mark 2:13 Once again Jesus went out beside the sea. All the people ca
me to Him, and He taught them there.
Mark 2:12 And im
mediately the man got up, picked up his mat, and walked out in front of them all. As a result, they were all astounded and glorified God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”"
Mark 2:11 “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go ho
me.”"
Mark 2:6 But so
me of the scribes were sitting there and thinking in their hearts,
Mark 2:3 Then a paralytic was brought to Him, carried by four
men.
Mark 2:1 A few days later Jesus went back to Capernaum. And when the people heard that He was ho
me,
Mark 1:45 But the man went out and openly began to proclaim and spread the news. Consequently, Jesus could no longer enter a town in plain view, but He stayed out in solitary places. Yet people ca
me to Him from every quarter.
Mark 1:42 And im
mediately the leprosy left him, and the man was cleansed.
Mark 1:40 Then a leper ca
me to Jesus, begging on his knees: “If You are willing, You can make
me clean.”"
Mark 1:38 But Jesus answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns so I can preach there as well, for that is why I have co
me.”"
Mark 1:29 As soon as Jesus and His companions had left the synagogue, they went with Ja
mes and John to the ho
me of Simon and Andrew.
Mark 1:26 At this, the unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions and ca
me out with a loud shriek.
Mark 1:25 But Jesus rebuked the spirit. “Be silent!” He said. “Co
me out of him!”"
Mark 1:24 “What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You co
me to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”"
Mark 1:20 Im
mediately Jesus called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired
men and followed Him.
Mark 1:19 Going on a little farther, He saw Ja
mes son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat,
mending their nets.
Mark 1:17 “Co
me, follow
Me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of
men.”"
Mark 1:16 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the sea, for they were fisher
men.
Mark 1:15 “The ti
me is fulfilled,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe in the gospel!”"
Mark 1:14 After the arrest of John, Jesus went into Galilee and proclai
med the gospel of God.
Mark 1:11 And a voice ca
me from heaven: “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”"
Mark 1:10 As soon as Jesus ca
me up out of the water, He saw the heavens breaking open and the Spirit descending on Him like a dove.
Mark 1:9 In those days Jesus ca
me from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
Mark 1:7 And he began to proclaim: “After
me will co
me One more powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie."
Mark 1:6 John was clothed in ca
mel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey."
Mark 1:2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: “Behold, I will send My
messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way.”"
Matthew 28:19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the na
me of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
♫ Matthew 28:18 Then Jesus ca
me to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to
Me."
♫ Matthew 28:17 When they saw Him, they worshiped Him, but so
me doubted.
Matthew 28:16 Meanwhile, the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain Jesus had designated.
Matthew 28:13 and instructed them: “You are to say, ‘His disciples ca
me by night and stole Him away while we were asleep.’"
Matthew 28:12 And after the chief priests had
met with the elders and for
med a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money
Matthew 28:11 While the wo
men were on their way, so
me of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened.
Matthew 28:10 “Do not be afraid,” said Jesus. “Go and tell My brothers to go to Galilee. There they will see
Me.”"
Matthew 28:9 Suddenly Jesus
met them and said, “Greetings!” They ca
me to Him, grasped His feet, and worshiped Him."
Matthew 28:6 He is not here; He has risen, just as He said! Co
me, see the place where He lay.
♫ Matthew 28:5 But the angel said to the wo
men, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified."
♫ Matthew 28:4 The guards trembled in fear of him and beca
me like dead
men.
Matthew 27:64 So give the order that the tomb be secured until the third day. Otherwise, His disciples may co
me and steal Him away and tell the people He has risen from the dead. And this last deception would be worse than the first.”"
♫ Matthew 27:63 “Sir,” they said, “we re
member that while He was alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’"
♫ Matthew 27:57 When it was evening, there ca
me a rich man from Arimathea na
med Joseph, who himself was a disciple of Jesus.
Matthew 27:56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of Ja
mes and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons."
Matthew 27:55 And many wo
men were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to minister to Him.
Matthew 27:53 After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had co
me out of the tombs, they entered the holy city and appeared to many people."
Matthew 27:51 At that mo
ment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split.
Matthew 27:49 But the others said, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah co
mes to save Him.”"
Matthew 27:47 When so
me of those standing there heard this, they said, “He is calling Elijah.”"
Matthew 27:46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” which
means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken
Me?”"
Matthew 27:45 From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness ca
me over all the land.
Matthew 27:44 In the sa
me way, even the robbers who were crucified with Him berated Him.
Matthew 27:42 “He saved others, but He cannot save Himself. He is the King of Israel! Let Him co
me down now from the cross, and we will believe in Him."
Matthew 27:41 In the sa
me way, the chief priests, scribes, and elders mocked Him, saying,
Matthew 27:40 and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, co
me down from the cross!”"
Matthew 27:35 When they had crucified Him, they divided up His gar
ments by casting lots.
Matthew 27:33 And when they ca
me to a place called Golgotha, which
means The Place of the Skull,
Matthew 27:32 Along the way they found a man from Cyrene, na
med Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.
Matthew 27:21 “Which of the two do you want
me to release to you?” asked the governor. “Barabbas,” they replied."
Matthew 27:19 While Pilate was sitting on the judg
ment seat, his wife sent him this
message: “Have nothing to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered terribly in a dream today because of Him.”"
Matthew 27:17 So when the crowd had assembled, Pilate asked them, “Which one do you want
me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?”"
Matthew 27:16 At that ti
me they were holding a notorious prisoner na
med Barabbas.
Matthew 27:14 But Jesus gave no answer, not even to a single charge, much to the governor’s amaze
ment."
Matthew 27:11 Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, who questioned Him: “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied."
Matthew 27:10 and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had commanded
me.”"
Matthew 27:1 When morning ca
me, all the chief priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put Him to death.
Matthew 26:75 Then Peter re
membered the word that Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny
Me three ti
mes.” And he went outside and wept bitterly."
Matthew 26:74 At that he began to curse and swear to them, “I do not know the man!” And im
mediately a rooster crowed."
Matthew 26:73 After a little while, those standing nearby ca
me up to Peter. “Surely you are one of them,” they said, “for your accent gives you away.”"
Matthew 26:69 Meanwhile, Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl ca
me up to him. “You also were with Jesus the Galilean,” she said."
Matthew 26:65 At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “He has blasphe
med! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy."
Matthew 26:62 So the high priest stood up and asked Him, “Have You no answer? What are these
men testifying against You?”"
Matthew 26:60 But they did not find any, though many false witnesses ca
me forward. Finally two ca
me forward
Matthew 26:58 But Peter followed Him at a distance, right up to the courtyard of the high priest. And he went in and sat down with the guards to see the outco
me.
Matthew 26:55 At that ti
me Jesus said to the crowd, “Have you co
me out with swords and clubs to arrest
Me as you would an outlaw? Every day I sat teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest
Me."
Matthew 26:50 “Friend,” Jesus replied, “do what you ca
me for.” Then the
men stepped forward, seized Jesus, and arrested Him."
Matthew 26:47 While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a large crowd ar
med with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.
Matthew 26:44 So He left them and went away once more and prayed a third ti
me, saying the sa
me thing.
Matthew 26:42 A second ti
me He went away and prayed, “My Father, if this cup cannot pass unless I drink it, may Your will be done.”"
Matthew 26:40 Then Jesus returned to the disciples and found them sleeping. “Were you not able to keep watch with
Me for one hour?” He asked Peter."
Matthew 26:39 Going a little farther, He fell facedown and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from
Me. Yet not as I will, but as You will.”"
Matthew 26:38 Then He said to them, “My soul is consu
med with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with
Me.”"
Matthew 26:36 At that ti
me Jesus went with His disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and He told them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”"
Matthew 26:35 Peter replied, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the other disciples said the sa
me thing."
Matthew 26:34 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus declared, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny
Me three ti
mes.”"
Matthew 26:31 Then Jesus said to them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of
Me. For it is written: ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’"
Matthew 26:23 Jesus answered, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with
Me will betray
Me."
Matthew 26:21 And while they were eating, He said to them, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray
Me.”"
Matthew 26:20 When evening ca
me, Jesus was reclining with the twelve disciples.
Matthew 26:18 He answered, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him that the Teacher says, ‘My ti
me is near. I will keep the Passover with My disciples at your house.’”"
Matthew 26:17 On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples ca
me to Jesus and asked, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”"
Matthew 26:15 and asked, “What are you willing to give
me if I hand Him over to you?” And they set out for him thirty pieces of silver."
Matthew 26:13 Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in
memory of her.”"
Matthew 26:12 By pouring this perfu
me on
Me, she has prepared My body for burial.
Matthew 26:11 The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have
Me.
Matthew 26:10 Aware of this, Jesus asked, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful deed to
Me."
Matthew 26:9 This perfu
me could have been sold at a high price, and the money given to the poor.”"
Matthew 26:7 a woman ca
me to Him with an alabaster jar of expensive perfu
me, which she poured on His head as He reclined at the table.
Matthew 26:6 While Jesus was in Bethany in the ho
me of Simon the Leper,
Matthew 26:3 At that ti
me the chief priests and elders of the people assembled in the courtyard of the high priest, whose na
me was Caiaphas,
Matthew 25:46 And they will go away into eternal punish
ment, but the righteous into eternal life.”"
Matthew 25:45 Then the King will answer, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for
Me.’"
Matthew 25:43 I was a stranger and you did not take
Me in, I was naked and you did not clothe
Me, I was sick and in prison and you did not visit
Me.’"
Matthew 25:42 For I was hungry and you gave
Me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave
Me nothing to drink,
Matthew 25:41 Then He will say to those on His left, ‘Depart from
Me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels."
Matthew 25:40 And the King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for
Me.’"
Matthew 25:37 Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You so
mething to drink?"
Matthew 25:36 I was naked and you clothed
Me, I was sick and you looked after
Me, I was in prison and you visited
Me.’"
Matthew 25:35 For I was hungry and you gave
Me so
mething to eat, I was thirsty and you gave
Me so
mething to drink, I was a stranger and you took
Me in,
Matthew 25:34 Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Co
me, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world."
Matthew 25:31 When the Son of Man co
mes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, He will sit on His glorious throne.
Matthew 25:24 Finally, the servant who had received the one talent ca
me and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed."
Matthew 25:22 The servant who had received the two talents also ca
me and said, ‘Master, you entrusted
me with two talents. See, I have gained two more.’"
Matthew 25:20 The servant who had received the five talents ca
me and presented five more. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted
me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.’"
Matthew 25:19 After a long ti
me the master of those servants returned to settle accounts with them.
Matthew 25:9 ‘No,’ said the wise ones, ‘or there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy so
me for yourselves.’"
Matthew 25:8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us so
me of your oil; our lamps are going out.’"
Matthew 25:7 Then all the virgins woke up and trim
med their lamps.
Matthew 25:6 At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here is the bridegroom! Co
me out to
meet him!’"
Matthew 25:5 When the bridegroom was delayed, they all beca
me drowsy and fell asleep.
Matthew 25:1 “At that ti
me the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to
meet the bridegroom."
Matthew 24:50 The master of that servant will co
me on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate.
Matthew 24:48 But suppose that servant is wicked and says in his heart, ‘My master will be away a long ti
me.’"
Matthew 24:45 Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper ti
me?
Matthew 24:44 For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will co
me at an hour you do not expect.
Matthew 24:43 But understand this: If the ho
meowner had known in which watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.
Matthew 24:42 Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will co
me.
Matthew 24:41 Two wo
men will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left.
Matthew 24:40 Two
men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left.
Matthew 24:39 And they were oblivious, until the flood ca
me and swept them all away. So will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.
Matthew 24:32 Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches beco
me tender and sprout leaves, you know that sum
mer is near.
Matthew 24:30 At that ti
me the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.
Matthew 24:29 Im
mediately after the tribulation of those days: ‘The sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’"
Matthew 24:27 For just as the lightning co
mes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Matthew 24:23 At that ti
me, if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it."
Matthew 24:21 For at that ti
me there will be great tribulation, unmatched from the beginning of the world until now, and never to be seen again.
Matthew 24:17 Let no one on the housetop co
me down to retrieve anything from his house.
Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will co
me.
Matthew 24:10 At that ti
me many will fall away and will betray and hate one another,
Matthew 24:9 Then they will deliver you over to be persecuted and killed, and you will be hated by all nations because of My na
me.
Matthew 24:6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alar
med. These things must happen, but the end is still to co
me.
Matthew 24:5 For many will co
me in My na
me, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many."
Matthew 24:3 While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples ca
me to Him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?”"
Matthew 24:1 As Jesus left the temple and was walking away, His disciples ca
me up to Him to point out its buildings.
Matthew 23:39 For I tell you that you will not see
Me again until you say, ‘Blessed is He who co
mes in the na
me of the Lord.’”"
Matthew 23:36 Truly I tell you, all these things will co
me upon this generation.
Matthew 23:35 And so upon you will co
me all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.
Matthew 23:34 Because of this, I am sending you prophets and wise
men and teachers. So
me of them you will kill and crucify, and others you will flog in your synagogues and persecute in town after town.
Matthew 23:32 Fill up, then, the
measure of the sin of your fathers.
Matthew 23:29 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the monu
ments of the righteous.
Matthew 23:28 In the sa
me way, on the outside you appear to be righteous, but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.
Matthew 23:27 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside, but on the inside are full of dead
men’s bones and every kind of impurity."
Matthew 23:26 Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, so that the outside may beco
me clean as well.
Matthew 23:24 You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a ca
mel.
Matthew 23:23 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You pay tithes of mint, dill, and cumin. But you have disregarded the weightier matters of the law: justice,
mercy, and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the for
mer.
Matthew 23:19 You blind
men! Which is greater: the gift, or the altar that makes it sacred?
Matthew 23:18 And you say, ‘If anyone swears by the altar, it
means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gift on it, he is bound by his oath.’"
Matthew 23:16 Woe to you, blind guides! You say, ‘If anyone swears by the temple, it
means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound by his oath.’"
Matthew 23:15 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You traverse land and sea to win a single convert, and when he beco
mes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are.
Matthew 23:13 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the kingdom of heaven in
men’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let in those who wish to enter."
Matthew 23:5 All their deeds are done for
men to see. They broaden their phylacteries and lengthen their tassels.
Matthew 23:4 They tie up heavy, burdenso
me loads and lay them on
men’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them."
Matthew 22:40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two command
ments.”"
Matthew 22:36 “Teacher, which command
ment is the greatest in the Law?”"
Matthew 22:26 The sa
me thing happened to the second and third brothers, down to the seventh.
Matthew 22:23 That sa
me day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, ca
me to Jesus and questioned Him.
Matthew 22:19 Show
Me the coin used for the tax.” And they brought Him a denarius."
Matthew 22:18 But Jesus knew their evil intent and said, “You hypocrites, why are you testing
Me?"
Matthew 22:11 But when the king ca
me in to see the guests, he spotted a man who was not dressed in wedding clothes.
Matthew 22:4 Again, he sent other servants and said, ‘Tell those who have been invited that I have prepared my dinner. My oxen and fattened cattle have been killed, and everything is ready. Co
me to the wedding banquet.’"
Matthew 22:3 He sent his servants to call those he had invited to the banquet, but they refused to co
me.
Matthew 21:42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone the builders rejected has beco
me the cornerstone. This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?"
Matthew 21:41 “He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and will rent out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him his share of the fruit at harvest ti
me.”"
Matthew 21:38 But when the tenants saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Co
me, let us kill him and take his inheritance.’"
Matthew 21:36 Again, he sent other servants, more than the first group. But the tenants did the sa
me to them.
Matthew 21:34 When the harvest ti
me drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit.
Matthew 21:33 Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it, and built a tower. Then he rented it out to so
me tenants and went away on a journey.
Matthew 21:32 For John ca
me to you in a righteous way and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him.
Matthew 21:30 Then the man went to the second son and told him the sa
me thing. ‘I will, sir,’ he said. But he did not go."
Matthew 21:26 But if we say, ‘From
men,’ we are afraid of the people, for they all regard John as a prophet.”"
Matthew 21:25 What was the source of John’s baptism? Was it from heaven or from
men?” They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’"
Matthew 21:24 “I will also ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer
Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things."
Matthew 21:23 When Jesus returned to the temple courts and began to teach, the chief priests and elders of the people ca
me up to Him. “By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You this authority?”"
Matthew 21:19 Seeing a fig tree by the road, He went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. “May you never bear fruit again!” He said. And im
mediately the tree withered."
Matthew 21:15 But the chief priests and scribes were indignant when they saw the wonders He perfor
med and the children shouting in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”"
Matthew 21:14 The blind and the la
me ca
me to Him at the temple, and He healed them.
Matthew 21:9 The crowds that went ahead of Him and those that followed were shouting: “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is He who co
mes in the na
me of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest!”"
Matthew 21:5 “Say to the Daughter of Zion, ‘See, your King co
mes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”"
Matthew 21:2 saying to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt beside her. Untie them and bring them to
Me."
Matthew 21:1 As they approached Jerusalem and ca
me to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two disciples,
Matthew 20:32 Jesus stopped and called them. “What do you want
Me to do for you?” He asked."
Matthew 20:31 The crowd admonished them to be silent, but they cried out all the louder, “Lord, Son of David, have
mercy on us!”"
Matthew 20:30 And there were two blind
men sitting beside the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, “Lord, Son of David, have
mercy on us!”"
Matthew 20:28 just as the Son of Man did not co
me to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”"
♫2 Matthew 20:26 It shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to beco
me great among you must be your servant,
♫2 Matthew 20:20 Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons ca
me to Jesus with her sons and knelt down to make a request of Him."
Matthew 20:14 Take your pay and go. I want to give this last man the sa
me as I gave you.
Matthew 20:13 But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am not being unfair to you. Did you not agree with
me on one denarius?"
Matthew 20:12 ‘These
men who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the scorching heat of the day.’"
Matthew 20:10 So when the original workers ca
me, they assu
med they would receive more. But each of them also received a denarius.
Matthew 20:9 The workers who were hired about the eleventh hour ca
me and each received a denarius.
Matthew 20:8 When evening ca
me, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, starting with the last ones hired and moving on to the first.’"
Matthew 20:5 So they went. He went out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour and did the sa
me thing.
Matthew 19:29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for the sake of My na
me will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life.
Matthew 19:28 Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, in the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you who have followed
Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
Matthew 19:24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a ca
mel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”"
Matthew 19:21 Jesus told him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then co
me, follow
Me.”"
Matthew 19:17 “Why do you ask
Me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the command
ments.”"
Matthew 19:16 Just then a man ca
me up to Jesus and inquired, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to obtain eternal life?”"
Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children co
me to
Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”"
Matthew 19:12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way; others were made that way by
men; and still others live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”"
Matthew 19:5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will beco
me one flesh’?"
Matthew 19:3 Then so
me Pharisees ca
me and tested Him by asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?”"
Matthew 18:33 Shouldn’t you have had
mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had on you?’"
Matthew 18:32 Then the master summoned him and declared, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave all your debt because you begged
me."
Matthew 18:29 So his fellow servant fell down and begged him, ‘Have patience with
me, and I will pay you back.’"
Matthew 18:28 But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him and began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay back what you owe
me!’"
Matthew 18:26 Then the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Have patience with
me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’"
Matthew 18:24 As he began the settle
ments, a debtor was brought to him owing ten thousand talents.
Matthew 18:22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not just seven ti
mes, but seventy-seven ti
mes!"
Matthew 18:21 Then Peter ca
me to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many ti
mes shall I forgive my brother who sins against
me? Up to seven ti
mes?”"
Matthew 18:20 For where two or three gather together in My na
me, there am I with them.”"
♫ Matthew 18:14 In the sa
me way, your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.
Matthew 18:8 If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or la
me than to have two hands and two feet and be thrown into the eternal fire.
Matthew 18:7 Woe to the world for the causes of sin. These stumbling blocks must co
me, but woe to the man through whom they co
me!
Matthew 18:6 But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in
Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
Matthew 18:5 And whoever welco
mes a little child like this in My na
me welco
mes
Me.
♫ Matthew 18:3 “Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and beco
me like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."
♫ Matthew 18:1 At that ti
me the disciples ca
me to Jesus and asked, “Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”"
Matthew 17:24 After they had arrived in Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma tax ca
me to Peter and asked, “Does your Teacher pay the two drachmas?”"
Matthew 17:22 When they gathered together in Galilee, Jesus told them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of
men."
Matthew 17:19 Afterward the disciples ca
me to Jesus privately and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”"
Matthew 17:18 Then Jesus rebuked the demon, and it ca
me out of the boy, and he was healed from that mo
ment.
Matthew 17:17 “O unbelieving and perverse generation!” Jesus replied. “How long must I remain with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to
Me.”"
Matthew 17:15 “Lord, have
mercy on my son,” he said. “He has seizures and is suffering terribly. He often falls into the fire or into the water."
Matthew 17:14 When they ca
me to the crowd, a man ca
me up to Jesus and knelt before Him.
Matthew 17:12 But I tell you that Elijah has already co
me, and they did not recognize him, but have done to him whatever they wished. In the sa
me way, the Son of Man will suffer at their hands.”"
Matthew 17:11 Jesus replied, “Elijah does indeed co
me, and he will restore all things."
Matthew 17:10 The disciples asked Him, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must co
me first?”"
Matthew 17:7 Then Jesus ca
me over and touched them. “Get up,” He said. “Do not be afraid.”"
♫ Matthew 17:2 There He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes beca
me as white as the light.
♫ Matthew 17:1 After six days Jesus took with Him Peter, Ja
mes, and John the brother of Ja
mes, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.
♫ Matthew 16:28 Truly I tell you, so
me who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”"
Matthew 16:27 For the Son of Man will co
me in His Father’s glory with His angels, and then He will repay each one according to what he has done."
Matthew 16:24 Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to co
me after
Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow
Me."
♫ Matthew 16:23 But Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind
Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to
Me. For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of
men.”"
Matthew 16:21 From that ti
me on Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.
Matthew 16:14 They replied, “So
me say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”"
Matthew 16:13 When Jesus ca
me to the region of Caesarea Philippi, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”"
Matthew 16:9 Do you still not understand? Do you not re
member the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?
Matthew 16:3 and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but not the signs of the ti
mes."
Matthew 16:2 But He replied, “When evening co
mes, you say, ‘The weather will be fair, for the sky is red,’"
Matthew 16:1 Then the Pharisees and Sadducees ca
me and tested Jesus by asking Him to show them a sign from heaven.
Matthew 15:38 A total of four thousand
men were fed, in addition to wo
men and children.
Matthew 15:32 Then Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with
Me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may faint along the way.”"
Matthew 15:31 The crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, the la
me walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.
Matthew 15:30 Large crowds ca
me to Him, bringing the la
me, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and laid them at His feet, and He healed them.
Matthew 15:25 The woman ca
me and knelt before Him. “Lord, help
me!” she said."
Matthew 15:23 But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples ca
me and urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”"
Matthew 15:22 And a Canaanite woman from that region ca
me to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have
mercy on
me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.”"
Matthew 15:19 For out of the heart co
me evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander.
Matthew 15:18 But the things that co
me out of the mouth co
me from the heart, and these things defile a man.
Matthew 15:12 Then the disciples ca
me to Him and said, “Are You aware that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”"
Matthew 15:11 A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what co
mes out of it.”"
Matthew 15:9 They worship
Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of
men.’”"
Matthew 15:8 ‘These people honor
Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from
Me."
Matthew 15:5 But you say that if anyone says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from
me is a gift devoted to God,’"
Matthew 15:1 Then so
me Pharisees and scribes ca
me to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,
Matthew 14:35 And when the
men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding region. People brought all the sick to Him
Matthew 14:31 Im
mediately Jesus reached out His hand and took hold of Peter. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?”"
Matthew 14:30 But when he saw the strength of the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save
me!”"
Matthew 14:29 “Co
me,” said Jesus. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and ca
me toward Jesus."
Matthew 14:28 “Lord, if it is You,” Peter replied, “command
me to co
me to You on the water.”"
Matthew 14:23 After He had sent them away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening ca
me, He was there alone,
Matthew 14:22 Im
mediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.
Matthew 14:21 About five thousand
men were fed, in addition to wo
men and children.
Matthew 14:16 “They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them so
mething to eat.”"
Matthew 14:15 When evening ca
me, the disciples ca
me to Him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds so they can go to the villages and buy themselves so
me food.”"
Matthew 14:12 Then John’s disciples ca
me and took his body and buried it. And they went and infor
med Jesus."
Matthew 14:8 Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give
me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”"
Matthew 14:1 At that ti

Matthew 13:55 “Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t His mother’s na
me Mary, and aren’t His brothers Ja

Matthew 13:54 Coming to His ho
metown, He taught the people in their synagogue, and they were astonished. “Where did this man get such wisdom and miraculous powers?” they asked."
Matthew 13:52 Then He told them, “For this reason, every scribe who has been discipled in the kingdom of heaven is like a ho
meowner who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old.”"
Matthew 13:49 So will it be at the end of the age: The angels will co
me and separate the wicked from the righteous,
Matthew 13:48 When it was full, the
men pulled it ashore. Then they sat down and sorted the good fish into containers, but threw the bad away.
Matthew 13:45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a
merchant in search of fine pearls.
Matthew 13:36 Then Jesus dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples ca
me to Him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”"
Matthew 13:33 He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three
measures of flour, until all of it was leavened.”"
Matthew 13:32 Although it is the smallest of all seeds, yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and beco
mes a tree, so that the birds of the air co
me and nest in its branches.”"
Matthew 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that ti
me I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat into my barn.’”"
Matthew 13:27 The owner’s servants ca
me to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds co
me from?’"
Matthew 13:25 But while everyone was asleep, his enemy ca
me and sowed weeds among the wheat, and slipped away.
Matthew 13:22 The seed sown among the thorns is the one who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it beco
mes unfruitful.
Matthew 13:21 But since he has no root, he remains for only a season. When trouble or persecution co
mes because of the word, he quickly falls away.
Matthew 13:19 When anyone hears the
message of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one co
mes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.
Matthew 13:17 For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous
men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.
Matthew 13:10 Then the disciples ca
me to Jesus and asked, “Why do You speak to the people in parables?”"
Matthew 13:5 So
me fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.
Matthew 13:4 And as he was sowing, so
me seed fell along the path, and the birds ca
me and devoured it.
Matthew 13:3 And He told them many things in parables, saying, “A far
mer went out to sow his seed."
Matthew 13:1 That sa

Matthew 12:47 So

men of Nineveh will stand at the judg

me of the scribes and Pharisees said to Him, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.”"
Matthew 12:36 But I tell you that
men will give an account on the day of judg
ment for every careless word they have spoken.
Matthew 12:32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the one to co
me.
Matthew 12:31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven
men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.
Matthew 12:30 He who is not with
Me is against
Me, and he who does not gather with
Me scatters.
Matthew 12:28 But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has co
me upon you.

♫3 Matthew 11:27 All things have been entrusted to
Me by My Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.
Matthew 11:25 At that ti
me Jesus declared, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children."
Matthew 11:24 But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judg
ment than for you.”"

med in you had been perfor
med in Sodom, it would have remained to this day.
Matthew 11:22 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judg
ment than for you.
Matthew 11:21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were perfor
med in you had been perfor
med in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes."
Matthew 11:20 Then Jesus began to denounce the cities in which most of His miracles had been perfor
med, because they did not repent.
Matthew 11:19 The Son of Man ca
me eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is vindicated by her actions.”"

Matthew 11:14 And if you are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was to co
me.
Matthew 11:11 Truly I tell you, among those born of wo
men there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet even the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
Matthew 11:10 This is the one about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I will send My
messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.’"
Matthew 11:6 Blessed is the one who does not fall away on account of
Me.”"
Matthew 11:5 The blind receive sight, the la

Matthew 11:2 Meanwhile John heard in prison about the works of Christ, and he sent his disciples
Matthew 10:40 He who receives you receives
Me, and he who receives
Me receives the One who sent
Me.
Matthew 10:38 and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow
Me is not worthy of
Me.
Matthew 10:37 Anyone who loves his father or mother more than

Me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than
Me is not worthy of

Matthew 10:23 When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next. Truly I tell you, you will not reach all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man co

Matthew 9:28 After Jesus had entered the house, the blind
men ca

Matthew 9:27 As Jesus went on from there, two blind
men followed Him, crying out, “Have
mercy on us, Son of David!”"
Matthew 9:20 Suddenly a woman who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years ca
me up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak.

me and place Your hand on her, and she will live.”"
Matthew 9:17 Neither do
men pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”"
Matthew 9:16 No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old gar

Matthew 9:15 Jesus replied, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while He is with them? But the ti
me will co
me when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast."
Matthew 9:14 At that ti
me John’s disciples ca
me to Jesus and asked, “Why is it that we and the Pharisees fast so often, but Your disciples do not fast?”"
Matthew 9:13 But go and learn what this
means: ‘I desire
mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not co
me to call the righteous, but sinners.”"
Matthew 9:10 Later, as Jesus was dining at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners ca
me and ate with Him and His disciples."
Matthew 9:9 As Jesus went on from there, He saw a man na

Me,” He told him, and Matthew got up and followed Him."
Matthew 9:8 When the crowds saw this, they were filled with awe and glorified God, who had given such authority to
men.
Matthew 9:6 But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...” Then He said to the paralytic, “Get up, pick up your mat, and go ho

Matthew 9:2 Just then so

Matthew 9:1 Jesus got into a boat, crossed over, and ca
me to His own town.
Matthew 8:34 Then the whole town went out to
meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged Him to leave their region.
Matthew 8:33 Those tending the pigs ran off into the town and reported all this, including the account of the demon-possessed
men.
Matthew 8:32 “Go!” He told them. So they ca
me out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and died in the waters."
Matthew 8:29 “What do You want with us, Son of God?” they shouted. “Have You co
me here to torture us before the appointed ti

Matthew 8:28 When Jesus arrived on the other side in the region of the Gadarenes, He was
met by two demon-possessed
men coming from the tombs. They were so violent that no one could pass that way.
Matthew 8:27 The
men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey Him!”"
♫ Matthew 8:24 Suddenly a violent storm ca

Matthew 8:22 But Jesus told him, “Follow
Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”"
Matthew 8:21 Another of His disciples requested, “Lord, first let
me go and bury my father.”"
Matthew 8:19 And one of the scribes ca
me to Him and said, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.”"
Matthew 8:16 When evening ca

Matthew 8:2 Suddenly a leper ca
me and knelt before Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make
me clean.”"
Matthew 8:1 When Jesus ca
me down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him.
Matthew 7:23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from
Me, you workers of lawlessness!’"
Matthew 7:22 Many will say to
Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your na
me, and in Your na
me drive out demons and perform many miracles?’"
Matthew 7:21 Not everyone who says to
Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven."
Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets. They co
me to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves."
Matthew 7:4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let
me take the speck out of your eye,’ while there is still a beam in your own eye?"
Matthew 7:2 For with the sa

measure you use, it will be
measured to you.
Matthew 6:18 so that your fasting will not be obvious to
men, but only to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Matthew 6:16 When you fast, do not be somber like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces to show
men they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.
Matthew 6:15 But if you do not forgive
men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive yours.
Matthew 6:14 For if you forgive
men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
Matthew 6:10 Your kingdom co

♫3 Matthew 6:9 So then, this is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your na

men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.
Matthew 6:2 So when you give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by
men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.
Matthew 6:1 “Be careful not to perform your righteous acts before
men to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven."
Matthew 5:47 And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even Gentiles do the sa

Matthew 5:46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Do not even tax collectors do the sa

Matthew 5:41 and if so
meone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
Matthew 5:40 if so
meone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well;
Matthew 5:39 But I tell you not to resist an evil person. If so
meone slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also;

Matthew 5:23 So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there re
member that your brother has so
mething against you,
Matthew 5:22 But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judg
ment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, ‘Raca,’ will be subject to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to the fire of hell."
Matthew 5:21 You have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not murder’ and ‘Anyone who murders will be subject to judg

Matthew 4:22 and im

Matthew 4:21 Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, Ja

mending their nets. Jesus called them,
Matthew 4:19 “Co
me, follow
Me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of

Matthew 3:13 At that ti

Matthew 2:8 And sending them to Bethlehem, he said: “Go and search carefully for the Child, and when you find Him, report to

Malachi 1:8 When you offer blind animals for sacrifice, is it not wrong? And when you present the la
me and sick ones, is it not wrong? Try offering them to your governor! Would he be pleased with you or show you favor?” asks the LORD of Hosts."
Malachi 1:6 “A son honors his father, and a servant his master. But if I am a father, where is My honor? And if I am a master, where is your fear of
Me?” says the LORD of Hosts to you priests who despise My na
me. “But you ask, ‘How have we despised Your na
me?’"
Zechariah 14:21 Indeed, every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy to the LORD of Hosts, and all who sacrifice will co
me and take so
me pots and cook in them. And on that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of Hosts.
Zechariah 14:19 This will be the punish
ment of Egypt and of all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.
Zechariah 14:16 Then all the survivors from the nations that ca
me against Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.
Zechariah 14:15 And a similar plague will strike the horses and mules, ca
mels and donkeys, and all the animals in those camps.
Zechariah 14:13 On that day a great panic from the LORD will co
me upon them, so that each will seize the hand of another, and the hand of one will rise against the other.
Zechariah 14:9 On that day the LORD will beco
me King over all the earth—the LORD alone, and His na
me alone."
Zechariah 14:8 And on that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half of it toward the Eastern Sea and the other half toward the Western Sea, in sum
mer and winter alike.
Zechariah 14:7 It will be a day known only to the LORD, without day or night; but when evening co
mes, there will be light.
Zechariah 14:5 You will flee by My mountain valley, for it will extend to Azal. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD my God will co
me, and all the holy ones with Him.
Zechariah 14:2 For I will gather all the nations for battle against Jerusalem, and the city will be captured, the houses looted, and the wo
men ravished. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be removed from the city.
Zechariah 13:9 This third I will bring through the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on My na
me, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘They are My people,’ and they will say, ‘The LORD is our God.’”"
Zechariah 13:6 If so
meone asks him, ‘What are these wounds on your chest?’ he will answer, ‘These are the wounds I received in the house of my friends.’"
Zechariah 13:4 And on that day every prophet who prophesies will be asha
med of his vision, and he will not put on a hairy cloak in order to deceive.
Zechariah 13:3 And if anyone still prophesies, his father and mother who bore him will say to him, ‘You shall not remain alive, because you have spoken falsely in the na
me of the LORD.’ When he prophesies, his father and mother who bore him will pierce him through."
Zechariah 13:2 And on that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, I will erase the na
mes of the idols from the land, and they will no longer be re
membered. I will also remove the prophets and the spirit of impurity from the land.
Zechariah 12:13 the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shi
mei and their wives,
Zechariah 12:11 On that day the wailing in Jerusalem will be as great as the wailing of Hadad-rimmon in the plain of
Megiddo.
Zechariah 12:10 Then I will pour out on the house of David and on the people of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and prayer, and they will look on
Me, the One they have pierced. They will mourn for Him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for Him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
Zechariah 12:9 So on that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that co
me against Jerusalem.
Zechariah 12:6 On that day I will make the clans of Judah like a firepot in a woodpile, like a flaming torch among the sheaves; they will consu
me all the peoples around them on the right and on the left, while the people of Jerusalem remain secure there.
Zechariah 11:15 And the LORD said to
me: “Take up once more the equip
ment of a foolish shepherd."
Zechariah 11:13 And the LORD said to
me, “Throw it to the potter”—this magnificent price at which they valued
me. So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them to the potter in the house of the LORD."
Zechariah 11:12 Then I told them, “If it seems right to you, give
me my wages; but if not, keep them.” So they weighed out my wages, thirty pieces of silver."
Zechariah 11:11 It was revoked on that day, and so the afflicted of the flock who were watching
me knew that it was the word of the LORD.
Zechariah 11:8 And in one month I dismissed three shepherds. My soul grew impatient with the flock, and their souls also detested
me.
Zechariah 11:1 Open your doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may consu
me your cedars!
Zechariah 10:12 I will strengthen them in the LORD, and in His na
me they will walk,” declares the LORD."
Zechariah 10:9 Though I sow them among the nations, they will re
member
Me in distant lands; they and their children will live and return.
Zechariah 10:8 I will whistle for them to gather, for I have redee
med them; and they will be as nu
merous as they once were.
Zechariah 10:5 They will be like mighty
men in battle, trampling the enemy in the mire of the streets. They will fight because the LORD is with them, and they will put the horse
men to sha
me.
Zechariah 10:4 The cornerstone will co
me from Judah, the tent peg from him, as well as the battle bow and every ruler together.
Zechariah 10:1 Ask the LORD for rain in springti
me; the LORD makes the storm clouds, and He will give everyone showers of rain and crops in the field.
Zechariah 9:17 How lovely they will be, and how beautiful! Grain will make the young
men flourish, and new wine, the young wo
men.
Zechariah 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, O Daughter of Jerusalem! See, your King co
mes to you, righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
♫3 Zechariah 9:7 I will remove the blood from their mouths and the abominations from between their teeth. Then they too will beco
me a remnant for our God; they will beco
me like a clan in Judah, and Ekron will be like the Jebusites.
Zechariah 9:4 Behold, the Lord will impoverish her and cast her wealth into the sea, and she will be consu
med by fire.
Zechariah 9:1 This is the burden of the word of the LORD against the land of Hadrach and Damascus its resting place—for the eyes of
men and of all the tribes of Israel are upon the LORD—"
Zechariah 8:23 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “In those days ten
men from the nations of every tongue will tightly grasp the robe of a Jew, saying, ‘Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.’”"
Zechariah 8:22 And many peoples and strong nations will co
me to seek the LORD of Hosts in Jerusalem and to plead before the LORD.”"
Zechariah 8:20 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Peoples will yet co
me—the residents of many cities—"
Zechariah 8:19 “This is what the LORD of Hosts says: The fasts of the fourth, the fifth, the seventh, and the tenth months will beco
me ti
mes of joy and gladness, cheerful feasts for the house of Judah. Therefore you are to love both truth and peace.”"
Zechariah 8:16 These are the things you must do: Speak truth to one another, render true and sound judg
ments in your gates,
Zechariah 8:14 For this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Just as I resolved to bring disaster upon you when your fathers provoked
Me to anger, and I did not relent,” says the LORD of Hosts,"
Zechariah 8:10 For before those days neither man nor beast received wages, nor was there safety from the enemy for anyone who ca
me or went, for I had turned every man against his neighbor.
Zechariah 8:4 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Old
men and old wo
men will again sit along the streets of Jerusalem, each with a staff in hand because of great age."
Zechariah 8:1 Again the word of the LORD of Hosts ca
me to
me, saying:
Zechariah 7:14 But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations that they had not known, and the land was left desolate behind them so that no one could co
me or go. Thus they turned the pleasant land into a desolation.”"
Zechariah 7:12 They made their hearts like flint and would not listen to the law or to the words that the LORD of Hosts had sent by His Spirit through the earlier prophets. Therefore great anger ca
me from the LORD of Hosts.
Zechariah 7:8 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Zechariah, saying,
Zechariah 7:7 Are these not the words that the LORD proclai
med through the earlier prophets, when Jerusalem and its surrounding towns were populous and prosperous, and the Negev and the foothills were inhabited?’”"
Zechariah 7:5 “Ask all the people of the land and the priests, ‘When you fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh months for these seventy years, was it really for
Me that you fasted?"
Zechariah 7:4 Then the word of the LORD of Hosts ca
me to
me, saying,
Zechariah 7:2 Now the people of Bethel had sent Sharezer and Regem-
melech, along with their
men, to plead before the LORD
Zechariah 7:1 In the fourth year of King Darius, the word of the LORD ca
me to Zechariah on the fourth day of the ninth month, the month of Chislev.
Zechariah 6:15 Even those far away will co
me and build the temple of the LORD, and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent
Me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.”"
Zechariah 6:14 The crown will reside in the temple of the LORD as a
memorial to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and the gracious son of Zephaniah.
Zechariah 6:12 And you are to tell him that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Here is a man whose na
me is the Branch, and He will branch out from His place and build the temple of the LORD."
Zechariah 6:10 “Take an offering from the exiles—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon—and go that sa
me day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah."
Zechariah 6:8 Then the LORD summoned
me and said, “Behold, those going to the land of the north have given rest to My Spirit in the land of the north.”"
Zechariah 6:5 And the angel told
me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth from their station before the Lord of all the earth."
Zechariah 6:4 So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with
me, “What are these, my lord?”"
Zechariah 5:11 “To build a house for it in the land of Shinar,” he told
me. “And when it is ready, the basket will be set there on its pedestal.”"
Zechariah 5:10 “Where are they taking the basket?” I asked the angel who was speaking with
me."
Zechariah 5:9 Then I lifted up my eyes and saw two wo
men approaching, with the wind in their wings. Their wings were like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth.
Zechariah 5:6 “What is it?” I asked. And he replied, “A
measuring basket is going forth.” Then he continued, “This is their iniquity in all the land.”"
Zechariah 5:5 Then the angel who was speaking with
me ca
me forward and told
me, “Now lift up your eyes and see what is approaching.”"
Zechariah 5:4 I will send it out, declares the LORD of Hosts, and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of him who swears falsely by My na
me. It will remain inside his house and destroy it, down to its timbers and stones.”"
Zechariah 5:3 Then he told
me, “This is the curse that is going out over the face of all the land, for according to one side of the scroll, every thief will be removed; and according to the other side, every perjurer will be removed."
Zechariah 5:1 Again I lifted up my eyes and saw before
me a flying scroll.
Zechariah 4:9 “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands will complete it. Then you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent
me to you."
Zechariah 4:7 What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will beco
me a plain. Then he will bring forth the capstone accompanied by shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’”"
Zechariah 4:6 So he said to
me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the LORD of Hosts."
Zechariah 4:4 “What are these, my lord?” I asked the angel who was speaking with
me."
Zechariah 4:1 Then the angel who was speaking with
me returned and woke
me, as a man is awakened from his sleep.
Zechariah 3:3 Now Joshua was dressed in filthy gar
ments as he stood before the angel.
Zechariah 3:1 Then the angel showed
me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, with Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him.
Zechariah 2:11 “On that day many nations will join themselves to the LORD, and they will beco
me My people. I will dwell among you, and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent
Me to you."
Zechariah 2:9 I will surely wave My hand over them, so that they will beco
me plunder for their own servants. Then you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent
Me.”"
Zechariah 2:8 For this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “After His Glory has sent
Me against the nations that have plundered you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of His eye—"
Zechariah 2:4 and said to him, “Run and tell that young man: ‘Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the multitude of
men and livestock within it."
Zechariah 2:3 Then the angel who was speaking with
me went out, and another angel ca
me out to
meet him
Zechariah 2:2 “Where are you going?” I asked. “To
measure Jerusalem,” he replied, “and to determine its width and length.”"
Zechariah 2:1 Then I lifted up my eyes and saw a man with a
measuring line in his hand.
Zechariah 1:21 “What are these coming to do?” I asked. And He replied, “These are the horns that scattered Judah so that no one could raise his head; but the crafts
men have co
me to terrify them and throw down these horns of the nations that have lifted up their horns against the land of Judah to scatter it.”"
Zechariah 1:19 So I asked the angel who was speaking with
me, “What are these?” And he told
me, “These are the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”"
Zechariah 1:16 Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘I will return to Jerusalem with
mercy, and there My house will be rebuilt, declares the LORD of Hosts, and a
measuring line will be stretched out over Jerusalem.’"
Zechariah 1:14 Then the angel who was speaking with
me said, “Proclaim this word: This is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘I am very jealous for Jerusalem and Zion,"
Zechariah 1:13 So the LORD spoke kind and comforting words to the angel who was speaking with
me.
Zechariah 1:12 Then the angel of the LORD said, “How long, O LORD of Hosts, will You withhold
mercy from Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, with which You have been angry these seventy years?”"
Zechariah 1:9 “What are these, my lord?” I asked. And the angel who was speaking with
me replied, “I will show you what they are.”"
Zechariah 1:7 On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, the month of Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD ca
me to the prophet Zechariah son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo.
Zechariah 1:4 Do not be like your fathers, to whom the for
mer prophets proclai
med that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Turn now from your evil ways and deeds.’ But they did not listen or pay attention to
Me, declares the LORD."
Zechariah 1:3 So tell the people that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Return to
Me, declares the LORD of Hosts, and I will return to you, says the LORD of Hosts.’"
Zechariah 1:1 In the eighth month of the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD ca
me to the prophet Zechariah son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying:
Haggai 2:20 For the second ti
me that day, the twenty-fourth day of the month, the word of the LORD ca
me to Haggai, saying,
Haggai 2:19 Is there still seed in the barn? The vine, the fig, the po
megranate, and the olive tree have not yet yielded fruit. But from this day on, I will bless you.”"
Haggai 2:17 I struck you—all the work of your hands—with blight, mildew, and hail, but you did not turn to
Me, declares the LORD."
Haggai 2:16 from that ti
me, when one ca
me expecting a heap of twenty ephahs of grain, there were but ten. When one ca
me to the winepress to draw out fifty baths, there were but twenty.
Haggai 2:14 Then Haggai replied, “So it is with this people and this nation before
Me, declares the LORD, and so it is with every work of their hands; whatever they offer there is defiled."
Haggai 2:13 So Haggai asked, “If one who is defiled by contact with a corpse touches any of these, does it beco
me defiled?” “Yes, it beco
mes defiled,” the priests answered."
Haggai 2:12 If a man carries consecrated
meat in the fold of his gar
ment, and it touches bread, stew, wine, oil, or any other food, does that item beco
me holy?’” “No,” replied the priests."
Haggai 2:10 On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD ca
me to Haggai the prophet, saying,
Haggai 2:9 The latter glory of this house will be greater than the for
mer, says the LORD of Hosts. And in this place I will provide peace, declares the LORD of Hosts.”"
Haggai 2:7 I will shake all the nations, and they will co
me with all their treasures, and I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of Hosts.
Haggai 2:5 This is the promise I made to you when you ca
me out of Egypt. And My Spirit remains among you; do not be afraid.”"
Haggai 2:3 ‘Who is left among you who saw this house in its for
mer glory? How does it look to you now? Does it not appear to you like nothing in comparison?’"
Haggai 2:1 On the twenty-first day of the seventh month, the word of the LORD ca
me through Haggai the prophet, saying:
Haggai 1:14 So the LORD stirred the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, as well as the spirit of all the remnant of the people. And they ca
me and began the work on the house of the LORD of Hosts, their God,
Haggai 1:13 Haggai, the
messenger of the LORD, delivered the
message of the LORD to the people: “I am with you,” declares the LORD."
Haggai 1:9 You expected much, but behold, it amounted to little. And what you brought ho
me, I blew away. Why? declares the LORD of Hosts. Because My house still lies in ruins, while each of you is busy with his own house.
Haggai 1:4 “Is it a ti
me for you yourselves to live in your paneled houses, while this house lies in ruins?”"
Haggai 1:3 Then the word of the LORD ca
me through Haggai the prophet, saying:
Haggai 1:2 that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “These people say, ‘The ti
me has not yet co
me to rebuild the house of the LORD.’”"
Haggai 1:1 In the second year of the reign of Darius, on the first day of the sixth month, the word of the LORD ca
me through Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, stating
Zephaniah 3:20 At that ti
me I will bring you in; yes, at that ti
me I will gather you. For I will give you fa
me and praise among all the peoples of the earth when I restore your captives before your very eyes,” says the LORD."
Zephaniah 3:19 Behold, at that ti
me, I will deal with all who afflict you. I will save the la
me and gather the scattered; and I will appoint praise and fa
me for the disgraced throughout the earth.
Zephaniah 3:15 The LORD has taken away your punish
ment; He has turned back your enemy. Israel’s King, the LORD, is among you; no longer will you fear any harm."
Zephaniah 3:12 But I will leave within you a
meek and humble people, and they will trust in the na
me of the LORD.
Zephaniah 3:11 On that day you will not be put to sha
me for any of the deeds by which you have transgressed against
Me. For then I will remove from among you those who rejoice in their pride, and you will never again be haughty on My holy mountain.
Zephaniah 3:10 From beyond the rivers of Cush My worshipers, My scattered people, will bring
Me an offering.
Zephaniah 3:9 For then I will restore pure lips to the peoples, that all may call upon the na
me of the LORD and serve Him shoulder to shoulder.
Zephaniah 3:8 Therefore wait for
Me,” declares the LORD, “until the day I rise to testify. For My decision is to gather nations, to assemble kingdoms, to pour out upon them My indignation—all My burning anger. For all the earth will be consu
med by the fire of My jealousy."
Zephaniah 3:7 I said, ‘Surely you will fear
Me and accept correction.’ Then her dwelling place would not be cut off despite all for which I punished her. But they rose early to corrupt all their deeds."
Zephaniah 3:5 The LORD within her is righteous; He does no wrong. He applies His justice morning by morning; He does not fail at dawn, yet the unjust know no sha
me.
Zephaniah 3:4 Her prophets are reckless, faithless
men. Her priests profane the sanctuary; they do violence to the law.
Zephaniah 2:15 This carefree city that dwells securely, that thinks to herself: “I am it, and there is none besides
me,” what a ruin she has beco
me, a resting place for beasts. Everyone who passes by her hisses and shakes his fist."
Zephaniah 2:6 So the seacoast will beco
me a land of pastures, with wells for shepherds and folds for sheep.
Zephaniah 2:2 before the decree takes effect and the day passes like chaff, before the burning anger of the LORD co
mes upon you, before the Day of the LORD’s anger co
mes upon you."
Zephaniah 2:1 Gather yourselves, gather together, O sha
meful nation,
Zephaniah 1:18 Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them on the Day of the LORD’s wrath. The whole earth will be consu
med by the fire of His jealousy.” For indeed, He will make a sudden end of all who dwell on the earth."
Zephaniah 1:12 And at that ti
me I will search Jerusalem with lamps and punish the
men settled in complacency, who say to themselves, ‘The LORD will do nothing, either good or bad.’"
Zephaniah 1:11 Wail, O dwellers of the Hollow, for all your
merchants will be silenced; all who weigh out silver will be cut off.
Zephaniah 1:4 “I will stretch out My hand against Judah and against all who dwell in Jerusalem. I will cut off from this place every remnant of Baal, the na
mes of the idolatrous and pagan priests—"
Zephaniah 1:1 This is the word of the LORD that ca
me to Zephaniah son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah:
Habakkuk 3:19 GOD the Lord is my strength; He makes my feet like those of a deer; He makes
me walk upon the heights! For the choirmaster. With stringed instru
ments.
♫ Habakkuk 3:16 I heard and trembled within; my lips quivered at the sound. Decay entered my bones; I trembled where I stood. Yet I must wait patiently for the day of distress to co
me upon the people who invade us.
Habakkuk 3:14 With his own spear You pierced his head, when his warriors stor
med out to scatter us, gloating as though ready to secretly devour the weak.
Habakkuk 3:6 He stood and
measured the earth; He looked and startled the nations; the ancient mountains crumbled; the perpetual hills collapsed. His ways are everlasting.
Habakkuk 3:3 God ca
me from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens, and His praise filled the earth.
Habakkuk 3:2 O LORD, I have heard the report of You; I stand in awe, O LORD, of Your deeds. Revive them in these years; make them known in these years. In Your wrath, re
member
mercy!
Habakkuk 2:17 For your violence against Lebanon will overwhelm you, and the destruction of animals will terrify you, because of your bloodshed against
men and your violence against the land, the city, and all their dwellers.
Habakkuk 2:16 You will be filled with sha
me instead of glory. You too must drink and expose your uncircumcision! The cup in the LORD’s right hand will co
me around to you, and utter disgrace will cover your glory."
Habakkuk 2:10 You have plotted sha
me for your house by cutting off many peoples and forfeiting your life.
Habakkuk 2:7 Will not your creditors suddenly arise and those who disturb you awaken? Then you will beco
me their prey.
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision awaits an appointed ti
me; it testifies of the end and does not lie. Though it lingers, wait for it, since it will surely co
me and will not delay.
♫ Habakkuk 2:2 Then the LORD answered
me: “Write down this vision and clearly inscribe it on tablets, so that a herald may run with it."
♫ Habakkuk 2:1 I will stand at my guard post and station myself on the ramparts. I will watch to see what He will say to
me, and how I should answer when corrected.
♫ Habakkuk 1:17 Will he, therefore, empty his net and continue to slay nations without
mercy?
♫ Habakkuk 1:14 You have made
men like the fish of the sea, like creeping things that have no ruler.
♫ Habakkuk 1:12 Are You not from everlasting, O LORD, my God, my Holy One? We will not die. O LORD, You have appointed them to execute judg
ment; O Rock, You have established them for correction.
♫ Habakkuk 1:9 All of them co
me bent on violence; their hordes advance like the east wind; they gather prisoners like sand.
♫ Habakkuk 1:8 Their horses are swifter than leopards, fiercer than wolves of the night. Their horse
men charge ahead, and their cavalry co
mes from afar. They fly like a vulture, swooping down to devour.
♫ Habakkuk 1:5 “Look at the nations and observe—be utterly astounded! For I am doing a work in your days that you would never believe even if so
meone told you."
♫ Habakkuk 1:3 Why do You make
me see iniquity? Why do You tolerate wrongdoing? Destruction and violence are before
me. Strife is ongoing, and conflict abounds.
♫ Nahum 3:16 You have multiplied your
merchants more than the stars of the sky. The young locust strips the land and flies away.
Nahum 3:15 There the fire will devour you; the sword will cut you down and consu
me you like a young locust. Make yourself many like the young locust; make yourself many like the swarming locust!
Nahum 3:13 Look at your troops—they are like your wo
men! The gates of your land are wide open to your enemies; fire consu
mes their bars."
Nahum 3:11 You too will beco
me drunk; you will go into hiding and seek refuge from the enemy.
Nahum 3:10 Yet she beca
me an exile; she went into captivity. Her infants were dashed to pieces at the head of every street. They cast lots for her dignitaries, and all her nobles were bound in chains.
Nahum 3:5 “Behold, I am against you,” declares the LORD of Hosts. “I will lift your skirts over your face. I will show your nakedness to the nations and your sha
me to the kingdoms."
Nahum 2:13 “Behold, I am against you,” declares the LORD of Hosts. “I will send your chariots up in smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions. I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voices of your
messengers will no longer be heard.”"
Nahum 2:10 She is emptied! Yes, she is desolate and laid waste! Hearts
melt, knees knock, bodies tremble, and every face grows pale!
Nahum 2:3 The shields of his mighty
men are red; the valiant warriors are dressed in scarlet. The fittings of the chariots flash like fire on the day they are prepared, and the spears of cypress have been brandished.
Nahum 1:14 The LORD has issued a command concerning you, O Nineveh: “There will be no descendants to carry on your na
me. I will cut off the carved image and cast idol from the house of your gods; I will prepare your grave, for you are contemptible.”"
Nahum 1:12 This is what the LORD says: “Though they are allied and nu
merous, yet they will be cut down and pass away. Though I have afflicted you, O Judah, I will afflict you no longer."
Nahum 1:11 From you, O Nineveh, co
mes forth a plotter of evil against the LORD, a counselor of wickedness.
Nahum 1:10 For they will be entangled as with thorns and consu
med like the drink of a drunkard—like stubble that is fully dry."
Nahum 1:9 Whatever you plot against the LORD, He will bring to an end. Affliction will not rise up a second ti
me.
Nahum 1:5 The mountains quake before Him, and the hills
melt away; the earth trembles at His presence—the world and all its dwellers."
♫ Nahum 1:4 He rebukes the sea and dries it up; He makes all the rivers run dry. Bashan and Car
mel wither, and the flower of Lebanon wilts.
♫ Nahum 1:3 The LORD is slow to anger and great in power; the LORD will by no
means leave the guilty unpunished. His path is in the whirlwind and storm, and clouds are the dust beneath His feet.
♫ Micah 7:16 Nations will see and be asha
med, deprived of all their might. They will put their hands over their mouths, and their ears will beco
me deaf.
Micah 7:15 As in the days when you ca
me out of Egypt, I will show My wonders.
Micah 7:13 Then the earth will beco
me desolate because of its inhabitants, as the fruit of their deeds.
Micah 7:12 On that day they will co
me to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, even from Egypt to the Euphrates, from sea to sea and mountain to mountain.
Micah 7:11 The day for rebuilding your walls will co
me—the day for extending your boundary."
Micah 7:10 Then my enemy will see and will be covered with sha
me—she who said to
me, “Where is the LORD your God?” My eyes will see her; at that ti
me she will be trampled like mud in the streets."
Micah 7:9 Because I have sinned against Him, I must endure the rage of the LORD, until He argues my case and executes justice for
me. He will bring
me into the light; I will see His righteousness.
Micah 7:8 Do not gloat over
me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will arise; though I sit in darkness, the LORD will be my light.
Micah 7:7 But as for
me, I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear
me.
Micah 7:6 For a son dishonors his father, a daughter rises against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man’s enemies are the
members of his own household."
Micah 7:4 The best of them is like a brier; the most upright is sharper than a hedge of thorns. The day for your watch
men has co
me, the day of your visitation. Now is the ti
me of their confusion.
Micah 7:2 The godly man has perished from the earth; there is no one upright among
men. They all lie in wait for blood; they hunt one another with a net.
Micah 7:1 Woe is
me! For I am like one gathering sum
mer fruit at the gleaning of the vineyard; there is no cluster to eat, no early fig that I crave.
Micah 6:9 The voice of the LORD calls out to the city (and it is sound wisdom to fear Your na
me): “Heed the rod and the One who ordained it."
Micah 6:8 He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you but to act justly, to love
mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?
♫2 Micah 6:6 With what shall I co
me before the LORD when I bow before the God on high? Should I co
me to Him with burnt offerings, with year-old calves?
Micah 6:5 My people, re
member what Balak king of Moab counseled and what Balaam son of Beor answered. Re
member your journey from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you may acknowledge the righteousness of the LORD.’”"
Micah 6:4 For I brought you up from the land of Egypt and redee
med you from the house of slavery. I sent Moses before you, as well as Aaron and Miriam.
Micah 6:3 ‘My people, what have I done to you? Testify against
Me how I have wearied you!"
Micah 6:2 Hear, O mountains, the LORD’s indict
ment, you enduring foundations of the earth. For the LORD has a case against His people, and He will argue it against Israel:"
Micah 5:15 I will take vengeance in anger and wrath upon the nations that have not obeyed
Me.”"
Micah 5:5 And He will be our peace when Assyria invades our land and tramples our citadels. We will raise against it seven shepherds, even eight leaders of
men.
Micah 5:4 He will stand and shepherd His flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majestic na
me of the LORD His God. And they will dwell securely, for then His greatness will extend to the ends of the earth.
Micah 5:2 But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will co
me forth for
Me One to be ruler over Israel—One whose origins are of old, from the days of eternity."
Micah 4:8 And you, O watchtower of the flock, O stronghold of the Daughter of Zion—the for
mer dominion will be restored to you; sovereignty will co
me to the Daughter of Jerusalem.”"
Micah 4:7 And I will make the la
me into a remnant, and the outcast into a strong nation. Then the LORD will rule over them in Mount Zion from that day and forever.
Micah 4:6 “On that day,” declares the LORD, “I will gather the la
me; I will assemble the outcast, even those whom I have afflicted."
Micah 4:5 Though each of the peoples may walk in the na
me of his god, yet we will walk in the na
me of the LORD our God forever and ever.
Micah 4:2 And many nations will co
me and say: “Co
me, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us His ways, so that we may walk in His paths.” For the law will go forth from Zion and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem."
Micah 3:12 Therefore, because of you, Zion will be plowed like a field, Jerusalem will beco
me a heap of rubble, and the temple mount a wooded ridge.
Micah 3:11 Her leaders judge for a bribe, her priests teach for a price, and her prophets practice divination for money. Yet they lean upon the LORD, saying, “Is not the LORD among us? No disaster can co
me upon us.”"
Micah 3:8 As for
me, however, I am filled with power by the Spirit of the LORD, with justice and courage, to declare to Jacob his transgression and to Israel his sin.
Micah 3:7 Then the seers will be asha
med and the diviners will be disgraced. They will all cover their mouths because there is no answer from God.”"
Micah 3:6 Therefore night will co
me over you without visions, and darkness without divination. The sun will set on these prophets, and the daylight will turn black over them.
Micah 3:4 Then they will cry out to the LORD, but He will not answer them. At that ti
me He will hide His face from them because of the evil they have done.
Micah 3:3 You eat the flesh of my people after stripping off their skin and breaking their bones. You chop them up like flesh for the cooking pot, like
meat in a cauldron.”"
Micah 2:11 If a man of wind were to co
me and say falsely, “I will preach to you of wine and strong drink,” he would be just the preacher for this people!"
Micah 2:10 Arise and depart, for this is not your place of rest, because its defile
ment brings destruction—a grievous destruction!"
Micah 2:9 You drive the wo
men of My people from their pleasant ho
mes. You take away My blessing from their children forever.
Micah 2:8 But of late My people have risen up like an enemy: You strip off the splendid robe from unsuspecting passersby like
men returning from battle.
Micah 2:4 In that day they will take up a proverb against you and taunt you with this bitter la
mentation: ‘We are utterly ruined! He has changed the portion of my people. How He has removed it from
me! He has allotted our fields to traitors.’”"
Micah 2:3 Therefore this is what the LORD says: “I am planning against this nation a disaster from which you cannot free your necks. Then you will not walk so proudly, for it will be a ti
me of calamity."
Micah 2:2 They covet fields and seize them; they take away houses. They deprive a man of his ho
me, a fellow man of his inheritance.
Micah 1:15 I will again bring a conqueror against you, O dweller of Mareshah. The glory of Israel will co
me to Adullam.
Micah 1:12 For the dwellers of Maroth pined for good, but calamity ca
me down from the LORD, even to the gate of Jerusalem.
Micah 1:11 Depart in sha
meful nakedness, O dwellers of Shaphir. The dwellers of Zaanan will not co
me out. Beth-ezel is in mourning; its support is taken from you.
Micah 1:8 Because of this I will la
ment and wail; I will walk barefoot and naked. I will howl like a jackal and mourn like an ostrich.
Micah 1:4 The mountains will
melt beneath Him, and the valleys will split apart, like wax before the fire, like water rushing down a slope.
Micah 1:3 For behold, the LORD co
mes forth from His dwelling place; He will co
me down and tread on the high places of the earth.
Micah 1:1 This is the word of the LORD that ca
me to Micah the Moreshite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah—what he saw regarding Samaria and Jerusalem:"
Jonah 4:8 As the sun was rising, God appointed a scorching east wind, and the sun beat down on Jonah’s head so that he grew faint and wished to die, saying, “It is better for
me to die than to live.”"
Jonah 4:7 When dawn ca
me the next day, God appointed a worm that attacked the plant so that it withered.
Jonah 4:3 And now, O LORD, please take my life from
me, for it is better for
me to die than to live.”"
Jonah 4:1 Jonah, however, was greatly displeased, and he beca
me angry.
Jonah 3:5 And the Ninevites believed God. They proclai
med a fast and dressed in sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least.
Jonah 3:4 On the first day of his journey, Jonah set out into the city and proclai
med, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overturned!”"
Jonah 3:3 This ti
me Jonah got up and went to Nineveh, in accordance with the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, requiring a three-day journey.
Jonah 3:2 “Get up! Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the
message that I give you.”"
Jonah 3:1 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Jonah a second ti
me:
Jonah 2:7 As my life was fading away, I re
membered the LORD. My prayer went up to You, to Your holy temple.
Jonah 2:6 To the roots of the mountains I descended; the earth beneath
me barred
me in forever! But You raised my life from the pit, O LORD my God!
Jonah 2:5 The waters engulfed
me to take my life; the watery depths closed around
me; the seaweed wrapped around my head.
Jonah 2:3 For You cast
me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the current swirled about
me; all Your breakers and waves swept over
me.
Jonah 2:2 saying: “In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered
me. From the belly of Sheol I called for help, and You heard my voice."
Jonah 1:16 Then the
men feared the LORD greatly, and they offered a sacrifice to the LORD and made vows to Him.
Jonah 1:13 Nevertheless, the
men rowed hard to get back to dry land, but they could not, for the sea was raging against them more and more.
Jonah 1:12 “Pick
me up,” he answered, “and cast
me into the sea, so it may quiet down for you. For I know that I am to bla
me for this violent storm that has co
me upon you.”"
Jonah 1:10 Then the
men were even more afraid and said to him, “What have you done?” The
men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them."
Jonah 1:8 “Tell us now,” they demanded, “who is to bla
me for this calamity that is upon us? What is your occupation, and where have you co
me from? What is your country, and who are your people?”"
Jonah 1:7 “Co
me!” said the sailors to one another. “Let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity that is upon us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah."
Jonah 1:2 “Get up! Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has co
me up before
Me.”"
Jonah 1:1 Now the word of the LORD ca
me to Jonah son of Amittai, saying,
Obadiah 1:18 Then the house of Jacob will be a blazing fire, and the house of Joseph a burning fla
me; but the house of Esau will be stubble—Jacob will set it ablaze and consu
me it. Therefore no survivor will remain from the house of Esau.” For the LORD has spoken."
Obadiah 1:10 Because of the violence against your brother Jacob, you will be covered with sha
me and cut off forever.
Obadiah 1:9 Then your mighty
men, O Teman, will be terrified, so that everyone in the mountains of Esau will be cut down in the slaughter.
Obadiah 1:8 In that day, declares the LORD, will I not destroy the wise
men of Edom and the
men of understanding in the mountains of Esau?
Obadiah 1:7 All the
men allied with you will drive you to the border; the
men at peace with you will deceive and overpower you. Those who eat your bread will set a trap for you without your awareness of it.
Obadiah 1:5 “If thieves ca
me to you, if robbers by night—oh, how you will be ruined—would they not steal only what they wanted? If grape gatherers ca
me to you, would they not leave so
me gleanings?"
Obadiah 1:3 The pride of your heart has deceived you, O dwellers in the clefts of the rocks whose habitation is the heights, who say in your heart, ‘Who can bring
me down to the ground?’"
Obadiah 1:1 This is the vision of Obadiah: This is what the Lord GOD says about Edom—We have heard a
message from the LORD; an envoy has been sent among the nations to say, “Rise up, and let us go to battle against her!”—"
Amos 9:12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations that bear My na
me,” declares the LORD, who will do this."
Amos 9:7 “Are you not like the Cushites to
Me, O children of Israel?” declares the LORD. “Did I not bring Israel up from the land of Egypt, the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Ara
means from Kir?"
Amos 9:6 He builds His upper rooms in the heavens and founds His vault upon the earth. He summons the waters of the sea and pours them over the face of the earth. The LORD is His na
me.
Amos 9:5 The Lord GOD of Hosts, He who touches the earth and it
melts, and all its dwellers mourn—all the land rises like the Nile, then sinks like the river of Egypt—"
Amos 9:3 Though they hide themselves atop Car
mel, there I will track them and seize them; and though they hide from
Me at the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent to bite them.
Amos 8:13 In that day the lovely young wo
men—the young
men as well—will faint from thirst."
Amos 8:10 I will turn your feasts into mourning and all your songs into la
mentation. I will cause everyone to wear sackcloth and every head to be shaved. I will make it like a ti
me of mourning for an only son, and its outco
me like a bitter day.
Amos 8:9 And in that day, declares the Lord GOD, I will make the sun go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the dayti
me.
Amos 8:2 “Amos, what do you see?” He asked. “A basket of sum
mer fruit,” I replied. So the LORD said to
me, “The end has co
me for My people Israel; I will no longer spare them.”"
Amos 8:1 This is what the Lord GOD showed
me: I saw a basket of sum
mer fruit.
Amos 7:17 Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘Your wife will beco
me a prostitute in the city, and your sons and daughters will fall by the sword. Your land will be divided by a
measuring line, and you yourself will die on pagan soil. And Israel will surely go into exile, away from their ho
meland.’”"
Amos 7:15 But the LORD took
me from following the flock and said to
me, ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel.’"
Amos 7:11 for this is what Amos has said: ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely go into exile, away from their ho
meland.’”"
Amos 7:7 This is what He showed
me: Behold, the Lord was standing by a wall true to plumb, with a plumb line in His hand.
Amos 7:4 This is what the Lord GOD showed
me: The Lord GOD was calling for judg
ment by fire. It consu
med the great deep and devoured the land.
Amos 7:1 This is what the Lord GOD showed
me: He was preparing swarms of locusts just after the king’s harvest, as the late spring crop was coming up."
Amos 6:10 And when the relative who is to burn the bodies picks them up to remove them from the house, he will call to one inside, “Is anyone else with you?” “None,” that person will answer. “Silence,” the relative will retort, “for the na
me of the LORD must not be invoked.”"
Amos 6:9 And if there are ten
men left in one house, they too will die.
Amos 6:7 Therefore, you will now go into exile as the first of the captives, and your feasting and lounging will co
me to an end.
Amos 6:5 You improvise songs on the harp like David and invent your own musical instru
ments.
Amos 6:1 Woe to those at ease in Zion and those secure on Mount Samaria, the distinguished ones of the foremost nation, to whom the house of Israel co
mes.
Amos 5:27 Therefore I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,” says the LORD, whose na
me is the God of Hosts."
Amos 5:25 Did you bring
Me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
Amos 5:23 Take away from
Me the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps.
Amos 5:22 Even though you offer
Me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; for your peace offerings of fattened cattle I will have no regard.
Amos 5:16 Therefore this is what the LORD, the God of Hosts, the Lord, says: “There will be wailing in all the public squares and cries of ‘Alas! Alas!’ in all the streets. The far
mer will be summoned to mourn, and the mourners to wail."
Amos 5:14 Seek good, not evil, so that you may live. And the LORD, the God of Hosts, will be with you, as you have clai
med.
Amos 5:13 Therefore, the prudent keep silent in such ti
mes, for the days are evil.
Amos 5:12 For I know that your transgressions are many and your sins are nu
merous. You oppress the righteous by taking bribes; you deprive the poor of justice in the gate.
Amos 5:9 He flashes destruction on the strong, so that fury co
mes upon the stronghold.
Amos 5:8 He who made the Pleiades and Orion, who turns darkness into dawn and darkens day into night, who summons the waters of the sea and pours them over the face of the earth—the LORD is His na
me—"
Amos 5:5 Do not seek Bethel or go to Gilgal; do not journey to Beersheba, for Gilgal will surely go into exile, and Bethel will co
me to nothing.
Amos 5:4 For this is what the LORD says to the house of Israel: “Seek
Me and live!"
Amos 5:1 Hear this word, O house of Israel, this la
mentation I take up against you:
Amos 4:13 For behold, He who forms the mountains, who creates the wind and reveals His thoughts to man, who turns the dawn to darkness and strides on the heights of the earth—the LORD, the God of Hosts, is His na
me.”"
Amos 4:12 “Therefore, that is what I will do to you, O Israel, and since I will do this to you, prepare to
meet your God, O Israel!"
Amos 4:11 “So
me of you I overthrew as I overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a firebrand snatched from a blaze, yet you did not return to
Me,” declares the LORD."
Amos 4:10 “I sent plagues among you like those of Egypt; I killed your young
men with the sword, along with your captured horses. I filled your nostrils with the stench of your camp, yet you did not return to
Me,” declares the LORD."
Amos 4:9 “I struck you with blight and mildew in your growing gardens and vineyards; the locust devoured your fig and olive trees, yet you did not return to
Me,” declares the LORD."
Amos 4:8 People staggered from city to city for water to drink, but they were not satisfied; yet you did not return to
Me,” declares the LORD."
Amos 4:6 “I beset all your cities with cleanness of teeth and all your towns with lack of bread, yet you did not return to
Me,” declares the LORD."
Amos 4:1 Hear this word, you cows of Bashan on Mount Samaria, you wo
men who oppress the poor and crush the needy, who say to your husbands, “Bring us more to drink.”"
Amos 3:15 I will tear down the winter house along with the sum
mer house; the houses of ivory will also perish, and the great houses will co
me to an end,” declares the LORD."
Amos 3:6 If a ram’s horn sounds in a city, do the people not tremble? If calamity co
mes to a city, has not the LORD caused it?"
Amos 2:16 Even the bravest of mighty
men will flee naked on that day,” declares the LORD."
Amos 2:11 I raised up prophets from your sons and Nazirites from your young
men. Is this not true, O children of Israel?” declares the LORD."
Amos 2:8 They lie down beside every altar on gar
ments taken in pledge. And in the house of their God, they drink wine obtained through fines.
Amos 2:7 They trample on the heads of the poor as on the dust of the earth; they push the needy out of their way. A man and his father have relations with the sa
me girl and so profane My holy na
me.
Amos 2:6 This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Israel, even four, I will not revoke My judg
ment, because they sell the righteous for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals."
Amos 2:5 So I will send fire upon Judah to consu
me the citadels of Jerusalem.”"

me the citadels of Kerioth. Moab will die in tumult, amid war cries and the sound of the ram’s horn."

me the citadels of Bozrah.”"

Joel 3:9 Proclaim this among the nations: “Prepare for war; rouse the mighty
men; let all the

Joel 3:6 You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks, to send them far from their ho
meland.

Joel 2:13 So rend your hearts and not your gar

mers, wail, O vinedressers, over the wheat and barley, because the harvest of the field has perished.
Joel 1:1 This is the word of the LORD that ca
me to Joel son of Pethuel:
Hosea 14:8 O Ephraim, what have I to do anymore with idols? It is I who answer and watch over him. I am like a flourishing cypress; your fruit co
mes from
Me.
Hosea 13:16 Samaria will bear her guilt because she has rebelled against her God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to pieces, and their pregnant wo
men ripped open.
Hosea 13:15 Although he flourishes among his brothers, an east wind will co
me—a wind from the LORD rising up from the desert. His fountain will fail, and his spring will run dry. The wind will plunder his treasury of every precious article."

Me, for there is no Savior besides
Me.

men. People say of them, “They offer human sacrifice and kiss the calves!”"

me to nothing. Do they sacrifice bulls in Gilgal? Indeed, their altars will be heaps of stones in the furrows of the field.
Hosea 12:8 And Ephraim boasts: “How rich I have beco
me! I have found wealth for myself. In all my labors, they can find in
me no iniquity that is sinful.”"
Hosea 12:7 A
merchant loves to defraud with dishonest scales in his hands.
Hosea 12:5 the LORD is the God of Hosts—the LORD is His na
me of renown."
Hosea 11:12 Ephraim surrounds
Me with lies, the house of Israel with deceit; but Judah still walks with God and is faithful to the Holy One.
Hosea 11:11 They will co
me trembling like birds from Egypt and like doves from the land of Assyria. Then I will settle them in their ho
mes, declares the LORD.
Hosea 11:10 They will walk after the LORD; He will roar like a lion. When He roars, His children will co
me trembling from the west.
Hosea 11:9 I will not execute the full fury of My anger; I will not turn back to destroy Ephraim. For I am God and not man—the Holy One among you—and I will not co
me in wrath."
Hosea 11:8 How could I give you up, O Ephraim? How could I surrender you, O Israel? How could I make you like Admah? How could I treat you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within
Me; My compassion is stirred!
Hosea 11:7 My people are bent on turning from
Me. Though they call to the Most High, He will by no
means exalt them.
Hosea 11:6 A sword will flash through their cities; it will destroy the bars of their gates and consu
me them in their own plans.
Hosea 11:2 But the more I called Israel, the farther they departed from
Me. They sacrificed to the Baals and burned incense to carved images.
Hosea 10:13 You have plowed wickedness and reaped injustice; you have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your own way and in the multitude of your mighty
men,
Hosea 10:12 Sow for yourselves righteousness and reap the fruit of loving devotion; break up your unplowed ground. For it is ti
me to seek the LORD until He co
mes and sends righteousness upon you like rain.
♫2 Hosea 10:6 Yes, it will be carried to Assyria as tribute to the great king. Ephraim will be seized with sha
me; Israel will be asha
med of its wooden idols.
Hosea 10:4 They speak
mere words; with false oaths they make covenants. So judg
ment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of a field.
Hosea 9:13 I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a
meadow. But Ephraim will bring out his children for slaughter.
Hosea 9:10 I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness. I saw your fathers as the firstfruits of the fig tree in its first season. But they went to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves to Sha
me; so they beca
me as detestable as the thing they loved.
Hosea 9:9 They have deeply corrupted themselves as in the days of Gibeah; He will re
member their guilt; He will punish their sins.
Hosea 9:7 The days of punish
ment have co
me; the days of retribution have arrived—let Israel know it. The prophet is called a fool, and the inspired man insane, because of the greatness of your iniquity and hostility."
Hosea 9:6 For even if they flee destruction, Egypt will gather them and
Memphis will bury them. Their precious silver will be taken over by thistles, and thorns will overrun their tents.
Hosea 8:14 Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces; Judah has multiplied its fortified cities. But I will send fire upon their cities, and it will consu
me their citadels.
Hosea 8:13 Though they offer sacrifices as gifts to
Me, and though they eat the
meat, the LORD does not accept them. Now He will re
member their iniquity and punish their sins: They will return to Egypt.
Hosea 8:12 Though I wrote for them the great things of My law, they regarded them as so
mething strange.
Hosea 8:11 Though Ephraim multiplied the altars for sin, they beca
me his altars for sinning.
Hosea 8:4 They set up kings, but not by
Me. They make princes, but without My approval. With their silver and gold they make themselves idols, to their own destruction.
Hosea 8:2 Israel cries out to
Me, “O our God, we know You!”"
Hosea 7:15 Although I trained and strengthened their arms, they plot evil against
Me.
Hosea 7:14 They do not cry out to
Me from their hearts when they wail upon their beds. They slash themselves for grain and new wine, but turn away from
Me.
Hosea 7:13 Woe to them, for they have strayed from
Me! Destruction to them, for they have rebelled against
Me! Though I would redeem them, they speak lies against
Me.
Hosea 7:11 So Ephraim has beco
me like a silly, senseless dove—calling out to Egypt, then turning to Assyria."
Hosea 7:9 Foreigners consu
me his strength, but he does not notice. Even his hair is streaked with gray, but he does not know.
Hosea 7:7 All of them are hot as an oven, and they devour their rulers. All their kings fall; not one of them calls upon
Me.
Hosea 7:5 The princes are infla
med with wine on the day of our king; so he joins hands with those who mock him.
Hosea 7:2 But they fail to consider in their hearts that I re
member all their evil. Now their deeds are all around them; they are before My face.
Hosea 7:1 When I heal Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim will be exposed, as well as the cri
mes of Samaria. For they practice deceit and thieves break in; bandits raid in the streets.
Hosea 6:7 But they, like Adam, have transgressed the covenant; there they were unfaithful to
Me.
Hosea 6:6 For I desire
mercy, not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
Hosea 6:5 Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of My mouth, and My judg
ments go forth like lightning.
Hosea 6:3 So let us know—let us press on to know the LORD. As surely as the sun rises, He will appear; He will co
me to us like the rain, like the spring showers that water the earth."
♫2 Hosea 6:1 Co
me, let us return to the LORD. For He has torn us to pieces, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bind up our wounds.
♫2 Hosea 5:15 Then I will return to My place until they admit their guilt and seek My face; in their affliction they will earnestly seek
Me.”"
Hosea 5:11 Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judg
ment, for he is determined to follow worthless idols.
Hosea 5:3 I know all about Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from
Me. For now, O Ephraim, you have turned to prostitution; Israel is defiled.
Hosea 5:1 “Hear this, O priests! Take heed, O house of Israel! Give ear, O royal house! For this judg
ment is against you because you have been a snare at Mizpah, a net spread out on Tabor."
Hosea 4:19 The whirlwind has wrapped them in its wings, and their sacrifices will bring them sha
me.
Hosea 4:16 For Israel is as obstinate as a stubborn heifer. Can the LORD now shepherd them like lambs in an open
meadow?
Hosea 4:14 I will not punish your daughters when they prostitute themselves, nor your daughters-in-law when they commit adultery. For the
men themselves go off with prostitutes and offer sacrifices with shrine prostitutes. So a people without understanding will co
me to ruin.
Hosea 4:7 The more they multiplied, the more they sinned against
Me; they exchanged their Glory for a thing of disgrace.
Hosea 3:5 Afterward, the people of Israel will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They will co
me trembling to the LORD and to His goodness in the last days.
Hosea 3:3 Then I said to her, “You must live with
me for many days; you must not be promiscuous or belong to another, and I will do the sa
me for you.”"
Hosea 3:2 So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and a ho
mer and a lethech of barley.
Hosea 3:1 Then the LORD said to
me, “Go show love to your wife again, though she is loved by another and is an adulteress. Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and offer raisin cakes to idols.”"
Hosea 2:19 So I will betroth you to
Me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness and justice, in loving devotion and compassion.
Hosea 2:17 For I will remove from her lips the na
mes of the Baals; no longer will their na
mes be invoked.
Hosea 2:16 In that day,” declares the LORD, “you will call
Me ‘my Husband,’ and no longer call
Me ‘my Master.’"
Hosea 2:15 There I will give back her vineyards and make the Valley of Achor into a gateway of hope. There she will respond as she did in the days of her youth, as in the day she ca
me up out of Egypt.
Hosea 2:13 I will punish her for the days of the Baals when she burned incense to them, when she decked herself with rings and jewelry, and went after her lovers. But
Me she forgot,” declares the LORD."
Hosea 2:9 Therefore I will take back My grain in its ti
me and My new wine in its season; I will take away My wool and linen, which were given to cover her nakedness.
Hosea 2:5 For their mother has played the harlot and has conceived them in disgrace. For she thought, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give
me bread and water, wool and linen, oil and drink.’"
Hosea 1:10 Yet the number of the Israelites will be like the sand of the sea, which cannot be
measured or counted. And it will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’"
Hosea 1:9 And the LORD said, “Na
me him Lo-ammi, for you are not My people, and I am not your God."
Hosea 1:8 After she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, Go
mer conceived and gave birth to a son.
Hosea 1:6 Go
mer again conceived and gave birth to a daughter, and the LORD said to Hosea, “Na
me her Lo-ruhamah, for I will no longer have compassion on the house of Israel, that I should ever forgive them."
Hosea 1:4 Then the LORD said to Hosea, “Na
me him Jezreel, for soon I will bring the bloodshed of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and I will put an end to the kingdom of Israel."
Hosea 1:3 So Hosea went and married Go
mer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.
Hosea 1:1 This is the word of the LORD that ca
me to Hosea son of Beeri in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and of Jeroboam son of Jehoash, king of Israel.
Daniel 12:11 And from the ti
me the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination of desolation set up, there will be 1,290 days.
Daniel 12:9 “Go on your way, Daniel,” he replied, “for the words are closed up and sealed until the ti
me of the end."
Daniel 12:8 I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, “My lord, what will be the outco
me of these things?”"
Daniel 12:7 And the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by Him who lives forever, saying, “It will be for a ti
me, and ti
mes, and half a ti
me. When the power of the holy people has finally been shattered, all these things will be completed.”"
Daniel 12:6 One of them said to the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, “How long until the fulfill
ment of these wonders?”"
Daniel 12:4 But you, Daniel, shut up these words and seal the book until the ti
me of the end. Many will roam to and fro, and knowledge will increase.”"
Daniel 12:2 And many who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake, so
me to everlasting life, but others to sha
me and everlasting contempt.
Daniel 12:1 “At that ti
me Michael, the great prince who stands watch over your people, will rise up. There will be a ti
me of distress, the likes of which will not have occurred from the beginning of nations until that ti
me. But at that ti
me your people—everyone whose na
me is found written in the book—will be delivered."
Daniel 11:45 He will pitch his royal tents between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain, but he will
meet his end with no one to help him.
Daniel 11:40 At the ti
me of the end, the king of the South will engage him in battle, but the king of the North will storm out against him with chariots, horse
men, and many ships, invading many countries and sweeping through them like a flood.
Daniel 11:37 He will show no regard for the gods of his fathers, nor for the one desired by wo
men, nor for any other god, because he will magnify himself above them all.
Daniel 11:36 Then the king will do as he pleases and will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and he will speak monstrous things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the ti
me of wrath is completed, for what has been decreed must be accomplished.
Daniel 11:35 So
me of the wise will fall, so that they may be refined, purified, and made spotless until the ti
me of the end, for it will still co
me at the appointed ti
me.
Daniel 11:33 Those with insight will instruct many, though for a ti
me they will fall by sword or fla
me, or be captured or plundered.
Daniel 11:30 Ships of Kittim will co
me against him, and he will lose heart. Then he will turn back and rage against the holy covenant and do damage. So he will return and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant.
Daniel 11:29 At the appointed ti
me he will invade the South again, but this ti
me will not be like the first.
Daniel 11:27 And the two kings, with their hearts bent on evil, will speak lies at the sa
me table, but to no avail, for still the end will co
me at the appointed ti
me.
Daniel 11:24 In a ti
me of peace, he will invade the richest provinces and do what his fathers and forefathers never did. He will lavish plunder, loot, and wealth on his followers, and he will plot against the strongholds—but only for a ti
me."
Daniel 11:21 In his place a despicable person will arise; royal honors will not be given to him, but he will co
me in a ti
me of peace and seize the kingdom by intrigue.
Daniel 11:17 He will resolve to co
me with the strength of his whole kingdom, and will reach an agree
ment with the king of the South. He will give him a daughter in marriage in order to overthrow the kingdom, but his plan will not succeed or help him.
Daniel 11:15 Then the king of the North will co
me, build up a siege ramp, and capture a fortified city. The forces of the South will not stand; even their best troops will not be able to resist.
Daniel 11:14 In those ti
mes many will rise up against the king of the South. Violent ones among your own people will exalt themselves in fulfill
ment of the vision, but they will fail.
Daniel 11:13 For the king of the North will raise another army, larger than the first, and after so
me years he will advance with a great army and many supplies.
Daniel 11:8 He will take even their gods captive to Egypt, with their
metal images and their precious vessels of silver and gold. For so
me years he will stay away from the king of the North,
Daniel 11:7 But one from her family line will rise up in his place, co
me against the army of the king of the North, and enter his fortress, fighting and prevailing.
Daniel 11:6 After so
me years they will form an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the South will go to the king of the North to seal the agree
ment. But his daughter will not retain her position of power, nor will his strength endure. At that ti
me she will be given up, along with her royal escort and her father and the one who supported her.
Daniel 11:1 “And I, in the first year of Darius the
Mede, stood up to strengthen and protect him."
Daniel 10:21 But first I will tell you what is inscribed in the Book of Truth. Yet no one has the courage to support
me against these, except Michael your prince.
Daniel 10:20 “Do you know why I have co
me to you?” he said. “I must return at once to fight against the prince of Persia, and when I have gone forth, behold, the prince of Greece will co
me."
Daniel 10:19 “Do not be afraid, you who are highly precious,” he said. “Peace be with you! Be strong now; be very strong!” As he spoke with
me, I was strengthened and said, “Speak, my lord, for you have strengthened
me.”"
Daniel 10:18 Again the one with the likeness of a man touched
me and strengthened
me.
Daniel 10:17 How can I, your servant, speak with you, my lord? Now I have no strength, nor is any breath left in
me.”"
Daniel 10:16 And suddenly one with the likeness of a man touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and said to the one standing before
me, “My lord, because of the vision, I am overco
me with anguish, and I have no strength."
Daniel 10:15 While he was speaking these words to
me, I set my face toward the ground and beca
me speechless.
Daniel 10:14 Now I have co
me to explain to you what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision concerns those days.”"
Daniel 10:13 However, the prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed
me for twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, ca
me to help
me, for I had been left there with the kings of Persia.
Daniel 10:12 “Do not be afraid, Daniel,” he said, “for from the first day that you purposed to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have co
me in response to them."
Daniel 10:11 He said to
me, “Daniel, you are a man who is highly precious. Consider carefully the words that I am about to say to you. Stand up, for I have now been sent to you.” And when he had said this to
me, I stood up trembling."
Daniel 10:10 Suddenly, a hand touched
me and set
me trembling on my hands and knees.
Daniel 10:8 So I was left alone, gazing at this great vision. No strength remained in
me; my face grew deathly pale, and I was powerless.
Daniel 10:7 Only I, Daniel, saw the vision; the
men with
me did not see it, but a great terror fell upon them, and they ran and hid themselves.
Daniel 10:3 I ate no rich food, no
meat or wine entered my mouth, and I did not anoint myself with oil until the three weeks were completed.
Daniel 10:1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a
message was revealed to Daniel, who was called Belteshazzar. The
message was true, and it concerned a great conflict. And the understanding of the
message was given to him in a vision.
Daniel 9:27 And he will confirm a covenant with many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of the temple will co
me the abomination that causes desolation, until the decreed destruction is poured out upon him.”"
Daniel 9:26 Then after the sixty-two weeks the
Messiah will be cut off and will have nothing. Then the people of the prince who is to co
me will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will co
me like a flood, and until the end there will be war; desolations have been decreed.
Daniel 9:25 Know and understand this: From the issuance of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, until the
Messiah, the Prince, there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in ti
mes of distress.
Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks are decreed for your people and your holy city to stop their transgression, to put an end to sin, to make atone
ment for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy Place.
Daniel 9:23 At the beginning of your petitions, an answer went out, and I have co
me to tell you, for you are highly precious. So consider the
message and understand the vision:
Daniel 9:22 He instructed
me and spoke with
me, saying: “O Daniel, I have co
me now to give you insight and understanding."
Daniel 9:21 while I was still praying, Gabriel, the man I had seen in the earlier vision, ca
me to
me in swift flight about the ti
me of the evening sacrifice.
Daniel 9:19 O Lord, listen! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, hear and act! For Your sake, O my God, do not delay, because Your city and Your people bear Your na
me.”"
♫ Daniel 9:18 Incline Your ear, O my God, and hear; open Your eyes and see the desolation of the city that bears Your na
me. For we are not presenting our petitions before You because of our righteous acts, but because of Your great compassion.
Daniel 9:15 Now, O Lord our God, who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and who made for Yourself a na
me renowned to this day, we have sinned; we have acted wickedly.
Daniel 9:13 Just as it is written in the Law of Moses, all this disaster has co
me upon us, yet we have not sought the favor of the LORD our God by turning from our iniquities and giving attention to Your truth.
Daniel 9:8 O LORD, we are covered with sha
me—our kings, our leaders, and our fathers—because we have sinned against You."
Daniel 9:7 To You, O Lord, belongs righteousness, but this day we are covered with sha
me—the
men of Judah, the people of Jerusalem, and all Israel near and far, in all the countries to which You have driven us because of our unfaithfulness to You."
Daniel 9:6 We have not listened to Your servants the prophets, who spoke in Your na
me to our kings, leaders, and fathers, and to all the people of the land.
Daniel 9:5 we have sinned and done wrong. We have acted wickedly and rebelled. We have turned away from Your command
ments and ordinances.
Daniel 9:4 And I prayed to the LORD my God and confessed, “O, Lord, the great and aweso
me God, who keeps His covenant of loving devotion to those who love Him and keep His command
ments,"
Daniel 9:1 In the first year of Darius son of Xerxes, a
Mede by descent, who was made ruler over the kingdom of the Chaldeans—"
Daniel 8:25 Through his craft and by his hand, he will cause deceit to prosper, and in his own mind he will make himself great. In a ti
me of peace he will destroy many, and he will even stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be broken off, but not by human hands.
Daniel 8:24 His power will be great, but it will not be his own. He will cause terrible destruction and succeed in whatever he does. He will destroy the mighty
men along with the holy people.
Daniel 8:23 In the latter part of their reign, when the rebellion has reached its full
measure, an insolent king, skilled in intrigue, will co
me to the throne.
Daniel 8:22 The four horns that replaced the broken one represent four kingdoms that will rise from that nation, but will not have the sa
me power.
Daniel 8:20 The two-horned ram that you saw represents the kings of
Media and Persia.
Daniel 8:19 and said, “Behold, I will make known to you what will happen in the latter ti
me of wrath, because it concerns the appointed ti
me of the end."
Daniel 8:18 While he was speaking with
me, I fell into a deep sleep, with my face to the ground. Then he touched
me, helped
me to my feet,
Daniel 8:17 As he ca
me near to where I stood, I was terrified and fell facedown. “Son of man,” he said to
me, “understand that the vision concerns the ti
me of the end.”"
Daniel 8:15 While I, Daniel, was watching the vision and trying to understand it, there stood before
me one having the appearance of a man.
Daniel 8:14 He said to
me, “It will take 2,300 evenings and mornings; then the sanctuary will be properly restored.”"
Daniel 8:13 Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another holy one said to him, “How long until the fulfill
ment of the vision of the daily sacrifice, the rebellion that causes desolation, and the surrender of the sanctuary and of the host to be trampled?”"
Daniel 8:10 It grew as high as the host of heaven, and it cast down so
me of the host and so
me of the stars to the earth, and trampled them.
Daniel 8:9 From one of these horns a little horn e
merged and grew extensively toward the south and the east and toward the Beautiful Land.
Daniel 8:8 Thus the goat beca
me very great, but at the height of his power, his large horn was broken off, and four prominent horns ca
me up in its place, pointing toward the four winds of heaven.
Daniel 8:6 He ca
me toward the two-horned ram I had seen standing beside the canal and rushed at him with furious power.
Daniel 8:5 As I was contemplating all this, suddenly a goat with a prominent horn between his eyes ca
me out of the west, crossing the surface of the entire earth without touching the ground.
Daniel 8:4 I saw the ram charging toward the west and the north and the south. No animal could stand against him, and there was no deliverance from his power. He did as he pleased and beca
me great.
Daniel 8:1 In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar, a vision appeared to
me, Daniel, subsequent to the one that had appeared to
me earlier.
Daniel 7:28 Thus ends the matter. As for
me, Daniel, my thoughts troubled
me greatly, and my face turned pale. But I kept the matter to myself.”"
Daniel 7:25 He will speak out against the Most High and oppress the saints of the Most High, intending to change the appointed ti
mes and laws; and the saints will be given into his hand for a ti
me, and ti
mes, and half a ti
me.
Daniel 7:22 until the Ancient of Days arrived and pronounced judg
ment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the ti
me ca
me for them to possess the kingdom.
Daniel 7:20 I also wanted to know about the ten horns on its head and the other horn that ca
me up, before which three of them fell—the horn whose appearance was more imposing than the others, with eyes and with a mouth that spoke words of arrogance."
Daniel 7:19 Then I wanted to know the true
meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others—extre
mely terrifying—devouring and crushing with iron teeth and bronze claws, then trampling underfoot whatever was left."
Daniel 7:16 I approached one of those who were standing there, and I asked him the true
meaning of all this. So he told
me the interpretation of these things:
Daniel 7:15 I, Daniel, was grieved in my spirit, and the visions in my mind alar
med
me.
Daniel 7:12 As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was removed, but they were granted an extension of life for a season and a ti
me.
Daniel 7:8 While I was contemplating the horns, suddenly another horn, a little one, ca
me up among them, and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like those of a man and a mouth that spoke words of arrogance.
Daniel 7:7 After this, as I watched in my vision in the night, suddenly a fourth beast appeared, and it was terrifying—dreadful and extre
mely strong—with large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed; then it trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the beasts before it, and it had ten horns."
Daniel 7:3 Then four great beasts ca
me up out of the sea, each one different from the others:
Daniel 6:26 I hereby decree that in every part of my kingdom,
men are to tremble in fear before the God of Daniel: For He is the living God, and He endures forever; His kingdom will never be destroyed, and His dominion will never end.
♫ Daniel 6:24 At the command of the king, the
men who had falsely accused Daniel were brought and thrown into the den of lions—they and their children and wives. And before they had reached the bottom of the den, the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones."
Daniel 6:22 My God sent His angel and shut the mouths of the lions. They have not hurt
me, for I was found innocent in His sight, and I have done no wrong against you, O king.”"
Daniel 6:18 Then the king went to his palace and spent the night fasting. No entertain
ment was brought before him, and sleep fled from him.
Daniel 6:15 Then the
men approached the king together and said to him, “Re
member, O king, that by the law of the
Medes and Persians no decree or ordinance established by the king can be changed.”"
Daniel 6:13 Then they told the king, “Daniel, one of the exiles from Judah, shows no regard for you, O king, or for the decree that you have signed. He still makes his petition three ti
mes a day.”"
Daniel 6:12 So they approached the king and asked about his royal decree: “Did you not sign a decree that for thirty days any man who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions?” The king replied, “According to the law of the
Medes and Persians the order stands, and it cannot be repealed.”"
Daniel 6:11 Then these
men went as a group and found Daniel petitioning and imploring his God.
Daniel 6:10 Now when Daniel learned that the docu
ment had been signed, he went into his house, where the windows of his upper room opened toward Jerusalem, and three ti
mes a day he got down on his knees, prayed, and gave thanks to his God, just as he had done before.
Daniel 6:8 Therefore, O king, establish the decree and sign the docu
ment so that it cannot be changed—in accordance with the law of the
Medes and Persians, which cannot be repealed.”"
Daniel 6:5 Finally these
men said, “We will never find any charge against this Daniel, unless we find so
mething against him concerning the law of his God.”"
Daniel 5:31 and Darius the
Mede received the kingdom at the age of sixty-two.
Daniel 5:29 Then Belshazzar gave the command, and they clothed Daniel in purple, placed a gold chain around his neck, and proclai
med him the third highest ruler in the kingdom.
Daniel 5:28 PERES
means that your kingdom has been divided and given over to the
Medes and Persians.”"
Daniel 5:27 TEKEL
means that you have been weighed on the scales and found deficient.
Daniel 5:26 And this is the interpretation of the
message:
MENE
means that God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end.
Daniel 5:25 Now this is the inscription that was written:
MENE,
MENE, TEKEL, PARSIN.
Daniel 5:20 But when his heart beca
me arrogant and his spirit was hardened with pride, he was deposed from his royal throne, and his glory was taken from him.
Daniel 5:17 In response, Daniel said to the king, “You may keep your gifts for yourself and give your rewards to so
meone else. Nevertheless, I will read the inscription for the king and interpret it for him."
Daniel 5:16 But I have heard about you, that you are able to give interpretations and solve difficult problems. Therefore, if you can read this inscription and give
me its interpretation, you will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain placed around your neck, and you will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”"
Daniel 5:15 Now the wise
men and enchanters were brought before
me to read this inscription and interpret it for
me, but they could not give its interpretation.
Daniel 5:12 did this because Daniel, the one he na
med Belteshazzar, was found to have an extraordinary spirit, as well as knowledge, understanding, and the ability to interpret dreams, explain riddles, and solve difficult problems. Summon Daniel, therefore, and he will give you the interpretation.”"
Daniel 5:9 Then King Belshazzar beca
me even more terrified, his face grew even more pale, and his nobles were bewildered.
Daniel 5:8 So all the king’s wise
men ca
me in, but they could not read the inscription or interpret it for him."
Daniel 5:7 The king called out for the enchanters, astrologers, and diviners to be brought in, and he said to these wise
men of Babylon, “Whoever reads this inscription and tells
me its interpretation will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain placed around his neck, and he will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”"
Daniel 5:6 his face grew pale and his thoughts so alar
med him that his hips gave way and his knees knocked together.
Daniel 5:5 At that mo
ment the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall, near the lampstand in the royal palace. As the king watched the hand that was writing,
Daniel 4:36 At the sa
me ti
me my sanity was restored, my honor and splendor returned to
me for the glory of my kingdom. My advisers and nobles sought
me out, and I was restored to my throne, and surpassing greatness was added to
me.
Daniel 4:34 But at the end of those days I, Nebuchadnezzar, looked up to heaven, and my sanity was restored to
me. Then I praised the Most High, and I honored and glorified Him who lives forever: “For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, and His kingdom endures from generation to generation."
Daniel 4:33 At that mo
ment the sentence against Nebuchadnezzar was fulfilled. He was driven away from mankind. He ate grass like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until his hair grew like the feathers of an eagle and his nails like the claws of a bird.
Daniel 4:32 You will be driven away from mankind to live with the beasts of the field, and you will feed on grass like an ox. And seven ti
mes will pass you by, until you acknowledge that the Most High rules over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whom He wishes.”"
Daniel 4:31 While the words were still in the king’s mouth, a voice ca
me from heaven: “It is decreed to you, King Nebuchadnezzar, that the kingdom has departed from you."
Daniel 4:30 the king exclai
med, “Is this not Babylon the Great, which I myself have built by the might of my power as a royal residence and for the glory of my majesty?”"
Daniel 4:27 Therefore, may my advice be pleasing to you, O king. Break away from your sins by doing what is right, and from your iniquities by showing
mercy to the oppressed. Perhaps there will be an extension of your prosperity.”"
Daniel 4:25 You will be driven away from mankind, and your dwelling will be with the beasts of the field. You will feed on grass like an ox and be drenched with the dew of heaven, and seven ti
mes shall pass you by, until you acknowledge that the Most High rules over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whom He wishes.
Daniel 4:23 And you, O king, saw a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven and saying: ‘Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump with its roots in the ground, and a band of iron and bronze around it, in the tender grass of the field. Let him be drenched with the dew of heaven, and graze with the beasts of the field till seven ti
mes pass him by.’"
Daniel 4:22 you, O king, are that tree! For you have beco
me great and strong; your greatness has grown to reach the sky, and your dominion extends to the ends of the earth.
Daniel 4:19 For a ti
me, Daniel, who was also known as Belteshazzar, was perplexed, and his thoughts alar
med him. So the king said, “Belteshazzar, do not let the dream or its interpretation alarm you.” “My lord,” replied Belteshazzar, “may the dream apply to those who hate you, and its interpretation to your enemies!"
Daniel 4:18 This is the dream that I, King Nebuchadnezzar, saw. Now, Belteshazzar, tell
me the interpretation, because none of the wise
men of my kingdom can interpret it for
me. But you are able, because the spirit of the holy gods is in you.”"
Daniel 4:17 This decision is the decree of the watchers, the verdict declared by the holy ones, so that the living will know that the Most High rules over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whom He wishes, setting over it the lowliest of
men.’"
Daniel 4:16 Let his mind be changed from that of a man, and let him be given the mind of a beast till seven ti
mes pass him by.
Daniel 4:10 In these visions of my mind as I was lying in bed, I saw this co
me to pass: There was a tree in the midst of the land, and its height was great.
Daniel 4:9 “O Belteshazzar, chief of the magicians, I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in you and that no mystery baffles you. So explain to
me the visions I saw in my dream, and their interpretation."
Daniel 4:8 But at last, into my presence ca
me Daniel (whose na
me is Belteshazzar after the na
me of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods). And I told him the dream:
Daniel 4:7 When the magicians, enchanters, astrologers, and diviners ca
me in, I told them the dream, and they could not interpret it for
me.
Daniel 4:6 So I issued a decree that all the wise
men of Babylon be brought before
me to interpret the dream for
me.
Daniel 4:5 I had a dream, and it frightened
me; while in my bed, the images and visions in my mind alar
med
me.
Daniel 4:2 I am pleased to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God has perfor
med for
me.
Daniel 3:30 Then the king promoted Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.
Daniel 3:29 Therefore I decree that the people of any nation or language who say anything offensive against the God of Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego will be cut into pieces and their houses reduced to rubble. For there is no other god who can deliver in this way.”"
Daniel 3:28 Nebuchadnezzar declared, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent His angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him. They violated the king’s command and risked their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God."
Daniel 3:27 and when the satraps, prefects, governors, and royal advisers had gathered around, they saw that the fire had no effect on the bodies of these
men. Not a hair of their heads was singed, their robes were unaffected, and there was no s
mell of fire on them.
Daniel 3:26 Then Nebuchadnezzar approached the door of the blazing fiery furnace and called out, “Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, co
me out!” So Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego ca
me out of the fire,"
Daniel 3:25 “Look!” he exclai
med. “I see four
men, unbound and unhar
med, walking around in the fire—and the fourth looks like a son of the gods!”"
♫ Daniel 3:24 Suddenly King Nebuchadnezzar jumped up in amaze
ment and asked his advisers, “Did we not throw three
men, firmly bound, into the fire?” “Certainly, O king,” they replied."
Daniel 3:23 And these three
men, Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego, firmly bound, fell into the blazing fiery furnace.
Daniel 3:22 The king’s command was so urgent and the furnace so hot that the fiery fla
mes killed the
men who carried up Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego."
Daniel 3:20 and he commanded so
me mighty
men of valor in his army to tie up Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego and throw them into the blazing fiery furnace.
Daniel 3:19 At this, Nebuchadnezzar was filled with rage, and the expression on his face changed toward Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego. He gave orders to heat the furnace seven ti
mes hotter than usual,
Daniel 3:16 Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego replied to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter."
Daniel 3:14 and Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego, is it true that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden statue I have set up?"
Daniel 3:13 Then Nebuchadnezzar, furious with rage, summoned Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego. So these
men were brought before the king,
Daniel 3:12 But there are so
me Jews you have appointed to manage the province of Babylon—Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego—who have ignored you, O king, and have refused to serve your gods or worship the golden statue you have set up.”"
Daniel 3:8 At this ti
me so
me astrologers ca
me forward and maliciously accused the Jews,
Daniel 3:6 And whoever does not fall down and worship will im
mediately be thrown into the blazing fiery furnace.”"
Daniel 3:4 Then the herald loudly proclai
med, “O people of every nation and language, this is what you are commanded:"
Daniel 2:49 And at Daniel’s request, the king appointed Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego to manage the province of Babylon, while Daniel remained in the king’s court."
Daniel 2:48 Then the king promoted Daniel and gave him many generous gifts. He made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon and chief administrator over all the wise
men of Babylon.
Daniel 2:41 And just as you saw that the feet and toes were made partly of fired clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom, yet so
me of the strength of iron will be in it—just as you saw the iron mixed with clay."
Daniel 2:38 Wherever the sons of
men or beasts of the field or birds of the air dwell, He has given them into your hand and has made you ruler over them all. You are that head of gold.
Daniel 2:35 Then the iron, clay, bronze, silver, and gold were shattered and beca
me like chaff on the threshing floor in sum
mer. The wind carried them away, and not a trace of them could be found. But the stone that had struck the statue beca
me a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
Daniel 2:31 As you, O king, were watching, a great statue appeared. A great and dazzling statue stood before you, and its form was aweso
me.
Daniel 2:30 And to
me this mystery has been revealed, not because I have more wisdom than any man alive, but in order that the interpretation might be made known to the king, and that you may understand the thoughts of your mind.
Daniel 2:28 But there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in the latter days. Your dream and the visions that ca
me into your mind as you lay on your bed were these:
Daniel 2:27 Daniel answered the king, “No wise man, enchanter,
medium, or magician can explain to the king the mystery of which he inquires."
Daniel 2:26 The king responded to Daniel, whose na
me was Belteshazzar, “Are you able to tell
me what I saw in the dream, as well as its interpretation?”"
Daniel 2:24 Therefore Daniel went to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise
men of Babylon, and said to him, “Do not execute the wise
men of Babylon! Bring
me before the king, and I will give him the interpretation.”"
Daniel 2:23 To You, O God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, because You have given
me wisdom and power. And now You have made known to
me what we have requested, for You have made known to us the dream of the king.”"
Daniel 2:21 He changes the ti
mes and seasons; He removes kings and establishes them. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.
♫2 Daniel 2:20 and declared: “Blessed be the na
me of God forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to Him."
♫ Daniel 2:18 urging them to plead for
mercy from the God of heaven concerning this mystery, so that Daniel and his friends would not be killed with the rest of the wise
men of Babylon.
Daniel 2:16 So Daniel went in and asked the king to give him so
me ti
me, so that he could give him the interpretation.
Daniel 2:15 “Why is the decree from the king so harsh?” he asked. At this ti
me Arioch explained the situation to Daniel."
Daniel 2:14 When Arioch, the commander of the king’s guard, had gone out to execute the wise
men of Babylon, Daniel replied with discretion and tact."
Daniel 2:13 So the decree went out that the wise
men were to be executed, and
men went to look for Daniel and his friends to execute them.
Daniel 2:12 This response made the king so furious with anger that he gave orders to destroy all the wise
men of Babylon.
Daniel 2:9 If you do not tell
me the dream, there is only one decree for you. You have conspired to speak before
me false and fraudulent words, hoping the situation will change. Therefore tell
me the dream, and I will know that you can give
me its interpretation.”"
Daniel 2:8 The king replied, “I know for sure that you are stalling for ti
me, because you see that my word is final."
Daniel 2:7 They answered a second ti
me, “Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we will give the interpretation.”"
Daniel 2:6 But if you tell
me the dream and its interpretation, you will receive from
me gifts and rewards and great honor. So tell
me the dream and its interpretation.”"
Daniel 2:5 The king replied to the astrologers, “My word is final: If you do not tell
me the dream and its interpretation, you will be cut into pieces and your houses will be reduced to rubble."
Daniel 2:2 So the king gave orders to summon the magicians, enchanters, sorcerers, and astrologers to explain his dreams. When they ca
me and stood before the king,
Daniel 1:20 In every matter of wisdom and understanding about which the king consulted them, he found them ten ti
mes better than all the magicians and enchanters in his entire kingdom.
Daniel 1:19 And the king spoke with them, and among all the young
men he found no one equal to Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. So they entered the king’s service."
Daniel 1:18 Now at the end of the ti
me specified by the king, the chief official presented them to Nebuchadnezzar.
Daniel 1:17 To these four young
men God gave knowledge and understanding in every kind of literature and wisdom. And Daniel had insight into all kinds of visions and dreams.
Daniel 1:15 And at the end of ten days, they looked healthier and better nourished than all the young
men who were eating the king’s food."
Daniel 1:13 Then compare our appearances with those of the young
men who are eating the royal food, and deal with your servants according to what you see.”"
Daniel 1:10 but he said to Daniel, “I fear my lord the king, who has assigned your food and drink. For why should he see your faces looking thinner than those of the other young
men your age? You would endanger my head before the king!”"
Daniel 1:7 The chief official gave them new na
mes: To Daniel he gave the na
me Belteshazzar; to Hananiah, Shadrach; to Mishael,
Meshach; and to Azariah, Abednego.
Daniel 1:6 Among these young
men were so
me from Judah: Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.
Daniel 1:4 young
men without blemish, handso
me, gifted in all wisdom, knowledgeable, quick to understand, and qualified to serve in the king’s palace—and to teach them the language and literature of the Chaldeans."
Daniel 1:3 Then the king ordered Ashpenaz, the chief of his court officials, to bring in so
me Israelites from the royal family and the nobility—"
Daniel 1:2 And the Lord delivered into his hand Jehoiakim king of Judah, along with so
me of the articles from the house of God. He carried these off to the land of Shinar, to the house of his god, where he put them in the treasury of his god.
Daniel 1:1 In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon ca
me to Jerusalem and besieged it.
Ezekiel 48:35 The peri
meter of the city will be 18,000 cubits, and from that day on the na
me of the city will be: THE LORD IS THERE.”"
Ezekiel 48:33 On the south side, which will be 4,500 cubits long, there will be three gates: the gate of Si
meon, the gate of Issachar, and the gate of Zebulun.
Ezekiel 48:31 the gates of the city will be na
med after the tribes of Israel. On the north side there will be three gates: the gate of Reuben, the gate of Judah, and the gate of Levi.
Ezekiel 48:28 The southern border of Gad will run from Tamar to the waters of
Meribath-kadesh, then along the Brook of Egypt and out to the Great Sea.
Ezekiel 48:25 Issachar will have one portion bordering the territory of Si
meon from east to west.
Ezekiel 48:24 Si
meon will have one portion bordering the territory of Benjamin from east to west.
Ezekiel 48:19 The workers of the city who cultivate it will co
me from all the tribes of Israel.
Ezekiel 48:16 and will have these
measure
ments: 4,500 cubits on the north side, 4,500 cubits on the south side, 4,500 cubits on the east side, and 4,500 cubits on the west side.
Ezekiel 48:1 “Now these are the na
mes of the tribes: At the northern frontier, Dan will have one portion bordering the road of Hethlon to Lebo-hamath and running on to Hazar-enan on the border of Damascus with Hamath to the north, and extending from the east side to the west side."
Ezekiel 47:19 On the south side it will run from Tamar to the waters of
Meribath-kadesh, and along the Brook of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the southern boundary.
Ezekiel 47:11 But the swamps and marshes will not beco
me fresh; they will be left for salt.
Ezekiel 47:10 Fisher
men will stand by the shore; from En-gedi to En-eglaim they will spread their nets to catch fish of many kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea.
Ezekiel 47:8 And he said to
me, “This water flows out to the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah. When it empties into the Sea, the water there beco
mes fresh."
Ezekiel 47:6 “Son of man, do you see this?” he asked. Then he led
me back to the bank of the river."
Ezekiel 47:5 Once again he
measured off a thousand cubits, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough for swimming—a river that could not be crossed on foot."
Ezekiel 47:4 Then he
measured off a thousand cubits and led
me through knee-deep water. Again he
measured a thousand cubits and led
me through waist-deep water.
Ezekiel 47:3 As the man went eastward with a
measuring line in his hand, he
measured off a thousand cubits and led
me through ankle-deep water.
Ezekiel 47:2 Next he brought
me out through the north gate and led
me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and there I saw the water trickling out from the south side.
Ezekiel 47:1 Then the man brought
me back to the entrance of the temple, and I saw water flowing from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was coming down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar.
Ezekiel 46:24 And he said to
me, “These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple will cook the sacrifices offered by the people.”"
Ezekiel 46:22 In the four corners of the outer court there were enclosed courts, each forty cubits long and thirty cubits wide. Each of the four corner areas had the sa
me di
mensions.
Ezekiel 46:21 Then he brought
me into the outer court and led
me around to its four corners, and I saw a separate court in each of its corners.
Ezekiel 46:20 and said to
me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, so that they do not bring them into the outer court and transmit holiness to the people.”"
Ezekiel 46:19 Then the man brought
me through the entrance at the side of the gate into the holy chambers facing north, which belonged to the priests, and he showed
me a place there at the far western end
Ezekiel 46:16 This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons as an inheritance, it will belong to his descendants. It will beco
me their property by inheritance."
Ezekiel 46:9 When the people of the land co
me before the LORD at the appointed feasts, whoever enters by the north gate to worship must go out by the south gate, and whoever enters by the south gate must go out by the north gate. No one is to return through the gate by which he entered, but each must go out by the opposite gate.
Ezekiel 46:8 When the prince enters, he shall go in through the portico of the gateway, and he shall go out the sa
me way.
Ezekiel 45:25 During the seven days of the feast that begins on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, he is to make the sa
me provision for sin offerings, burnt offerings, grain offerings, and oil.’"
Ezekiel 45:20 You must do the sa
me thing on the seventh day of the month for anyone who strays unintentionally or in ignorance. In this way you will make atone
ment for the temple.
Ezekiel 45:19 And the priest is to take so
me of the blood from the sin offering and put it on the doorposts of the temple, on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the gateposts of the inner court.
Ezekiel 45:17 And it shall be the prince’s part to provide the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings for the feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths—for all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel. He will provide the sin offerings, grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings to make atone
ment for the house of Israel."
Ezekiel 45:15 And one sheep shall be given from each flock of two hundred from the well-watered pastures of Israel. These are for the grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings, to make atone
ment for the people, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 45:14 The prescribed portion of oil,
measured by the bath, is a tenth of a bath from each cor (a cor consists of ten baths or one ho
mer, since ten baths are equivalent to a ho
mer).
Ezekiel 45:13 This is the contribution you are to offer: a sixth of an ephah from each ho
mer of wheat, and a sixth of an ephah from each ho
mer of barley.
Ezekiel 45:11 The ephah and the bath shall be the sa
me quantity so that the bath will contain a tenth of a ho
mer, and the ephah a tenth of a ho
mer; the ho
mer will be the standard
measure for both.
Ezekiel 45:7 Now the prince will have the area bordering each side of the area for
med by the holy district and the property of the city, extending westward from the western side and eastward from the eastern side, running lengthwise from the western boundary to the eastern boundary and parallel to one of the tribal portions.
Ezekiel 45:3 From this holy portion, you are to
measure off a length of 25,000 cubits and a width of 10,000 cubits, and in it will be the sanctuary, the Most Holy Place.
Ezekiel 44:30 The best of all the firstfruits and of every contribution from all your offerings will belong to the priests. You are to give your first batch of dough to the priest, so that a blessing may rest upon your ho
mes.
Ezekiel 44:19 When they go out to the outer court, to the people, they are to take off the gar
ments in which they have ministered, leave them in the holy chambers, and dress in other clothes so that they do not transmit holiness to the people with their gar
ments.
Ezekiel 44:18 They are to wear linen turbans on their heads and linen undergar
ments around their waists. They must not wear anything that makes them perspire.
Ezekiel 44:17 When they enter the gates of the inner court, they are to wear linen gar
ments; they must not wear anything made of wool when they minister at the gates of the inner court or inside the temple.
Ezekiel 44:16 They alone shall enter My sanctuary and draw near to My table to minister before
Me. They will keep My charge.
Ezekiel 44:15 But the Levitical priests, who are descended from Zadok and who kept charge of My sanctuary when the Israelites went astray from
Me, are to approach
Me to minister before
Me. They will stand before
Me to offer
Me fat and blood, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 44:13 They must not approach
Me to serve
Me as priests or co
me near any of My holy things or the most holy things. They will bear the sha
me of the abominations they have committed.
Ezekiel 44:12 Because they ministered before their idols and beca
me a stumbling block of iniquity to the house of Israel, therefore I swore with an uplifted hand concerning them that they would bear the consequences of their iniquity, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 44:10 Surely the Levites who wandered away from
Me when Israel went astray, and who wandered away from
Me after their idols, will bear the consequences of their iniquity.
Ezekiel 44:5 The LORD said to
me: “Son of man, pay attention; look carefully with your eyes and listen closely with your ears to everything I tell you concerning all the statutes and laws of the house of the LORD. Take careful note of the entrance to the temple, along with all the exits of the sanctuary."
Ezekiel 44:4 Then the man brought
me to the front of the temple by way of the north gate. I looked and saw the glory of the LORD filling His temple, and I fell facedown.
Ezekiel 44:3 Only the prince himself may sit inside the gateway to eat in the presence of the LORD. He must enter by way of the portico of the gateway and go out the sa
me way.”"
Ezekiel 44:2 And the LORD said to
me, “This gate is to remain shut. It shall not be opened, and no man shall enter through it, because the LORD, the God of Israel, has entered through it. Therefore it will remain shut."
Ezekiel 44:1 The man then brought
me back to the outer gate of the sanctuary that faced east, but it was shut.
Ezekiel 43:26 For seven days the priests are to make atone
ment for the altar and cleanse it; so they shall consecrate it.
Ezekiel 43:20 You are to take so
me of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar, on the four corners of the ledge, and all around the rim; thus you will cleanse the altar and make atone
ment for it.
Ezekiel 43:19 You are to give a young bull from the herd as a sin offering to the Levitical priests who are of the family of Zadok, who approach
Me to minister before
Me, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 43:18 Then He said to
me: “Son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘These are the statutes for the altar on the day it is constructed, so that burnt offerings may be sacrificed on it and blood may be sprinkled on it:"
Ezekiel 43:13 These are the
measure
ments of the altar in long cubits (a cubit and a handbreadth): Its gutter shall be a cubit deep and a cubit wide, with a rim of one span around its edge. And this is the height of the altar:
Ezekiel 43:11 and if they are asha
med of all they have done, then make known to them the design of the temple—its arrange
ment and its exits and entrances—its whole design along with all its statutes, forms, and laws. Write it down in their sight, so that they may keep its complete design and all its statutes and may carry them out."
Ezekiel 43:10 As for you, son of man, describe the temple to the people of Israel, so that they may be asha
med of their iniquities. Let them
measure the plan,
Ezekiel 43:9 Now let them remove far from
Me their prostitution and the funeral offerings for their kings, and I will dwell among them forever.
Ezekiel 43:8 When they placed their threshold next to My threshold and their doorposts beside My doorposts, with only a wall between
Me and them, they defiled My holy na
me by the abominations they committed. Therefore I have consu
med them in My anger.
Ezekiel 43:7 and He said to
me, “Son of man, this is the place of My throne and the place for the soles of My feet, where I will dwell among the Israelites forever. The house of Israel will never again defile My holy na
me—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution and by the funeral offerings for their kings at their deaths."
Ezekiel 43:6 While the man was standing beside
me, I heard so
meone speaking to
me from inside the temple,
Ezekiel 43:5 Then the Spirit lifted
me up and brought
me into the inner court, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.
Ezekiel 43:3 The vision I saw was like the vision I had seen when He ca
me to destroy the city and like the visions I had seen by the River Kebar. I fell facedown,
Ezekiel 43:1 Then the man brought
me back to the gate that faces east,
Ezekiel 42:20 So he
measured the area on all four sides. It had a wall all around, five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits wide, to separate the holy from the common.
Ezekiel 42:19 And he ca
me around and
measured the west side to be five hundred cubits long.
Ezekiel 42:18 He
measured the south side to be five hundred cubits long.
Ezekiel 42:17 He
measured the north side to be five hundred cubits long.
Ezekiel 42:16 With a
measuring rod he
measured the east side to be five hundred cubits long.
Ezekiel 42:15 Now when the man had finished
measuring the interior of the temple area, he led
me out by the gate that faced east, and he
measured the area all around:
Ezekiel 42:14 Once the priests have entered the holy area, they must not go out into the outer court until they have left behind the gar
ments in which they minister, for these are holy. They are to put on other clothes before they approach the places that are for the people.”"
Ezekiel 42:13 Then the man said to
me, “The north and south chambers facing the temple courtyard are the holy chambers where the priests who approach the LORD will eat the most holy offerings. There they will place the most holy offerings—the grain offerings, the sin offerings, and the guilt offerings—for the place is holy."
Ezekiel 42:11 with a passageway in front of them, just like the chambers that were on the north. They had the sa
me length and width, with similar exits and di
mensions.
Ezekiel 42:3 Gallery faced gallery in three levels opposite the twenty cubits that belonged to the inner court and opposite the pave
ment that belonged to the outer court.
Ezekiel 42:1 Then the man led
me out northward into the outer court, and he brought
me to the group of chambers opposite the temple courtyard and the outer wall on the north side.
Ezekiel 41:22 There was an altar of wood three cubits high and two cubits square. Its corners, base, and sides were of wood. And the man told
me, “This is the table that is before the LORD.”"
Ezekiel 41:21 The outer sanctuary had a rectangular doorfra
me, and the doorfra
me of the sanctuary was similar.
Ezekiel 41:15 Next he
measured the length of the building facing the temple courtyard at the rear of the temple, including its galleries on each side; it was a hundred cubits. The outer sanctuary, the inner sanctuary, and the porticoes facing the court,
Ezekiel 41:13 Then he
measured the temple to be a hundred cubits long, and the temple courtyard and the building with its walls were also a hundred cubits long.
Ezekiel 41:5 Next he
measured the wall of the temple to be six cubits thick, and the width of each side room around the temple was four cubits.
Ezekiel 41:4 Then he
measured the room adjacent to the inner sanctuary to be twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide. And he said to
me, “This is the Most Holy Place.”"
Ezekiel 41:3 And he went into the inner sanctuary and
measured the side pillars at the entrance to be two cubits wide. The entrance was six cubits wide, and the walls on each side were seven cubits wide.
Ezekiel 41:2 The width of the entrance was ten cubits, and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on each side. He also
measured the length of the outer sanctuary to be forty cubits, and the width to be twenty cubits.
Ezekiel 41:1 Then the man brought
me into the outer sanctuary and
measured the side pillars to be six cubits wide on each side.
Ezekiel 40:48 Then he brought
me to the portico of the temple and
measured the side pillars of the portico to be five cubits on each side. The width of the gateway was fourteen cubits and its sidewalls were three cubits on either side.
Ezekiel 40:47 Next he
measured the court. It was square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide. And the altar was in front of the temple.
Ezekiel 40:45 Then the man said to
me: “The chamber that faces south is for the priests who keep charge of the temple,"
Ezekiel 40:35 Then he brought
me to the north gate and
measured it. It had the sa
me measure
ments as the others,
Ezekiel 40:33 Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the sa
me measure
ments as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Ezekiel 40:32 And he brought
me to the inner court on the east side, and he
measured the gateway; it had the sa
me measure
ments as the others.
Ezekiel 40:29 Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the sa
me measure
ments as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around; it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Ezekiel 40:28 Next he brought
me into the inner court through the south gate, and he
measured the south gate; it had the sa
me measure
ments as the others.
Ezekiel 40:27 The inner court also had a gate facing south, and he
measured the distance from gateway to gateway toward the south to be a hundred cubits.
Ezekiel 40:24 Then he led
me to the south side, and I saw a gateway facing south. He
measured its side pillars and portico, and they had the sa
me measure
ments as the others.
Ezekiel 40:23 There was a gate to the inner court facing the north gate, just as there was on the east. He
measured the distance from gateway to gateway to be a hundred cubits.
Ezekiel 40:22 Its windows, portico, and palm trees had the sa
me measure
ments as those of the gate facing east. Seven steps led up to it, with its portico opposite them.
Ezekiel 40:21 Its three gate chambers on each side, its side pillars, and its portico all had the sa
me measure
ments as the first gate: fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Ezekiel 40:20 He also
measured the length and width of the gateway of the outer court facing north.
Ezekiel 40:19 Then he
measured the distance from the front of the lower gateway to the outside of the inner court; it was a hundred cubits on the east side as well as on the north.
Ezekiel 40:18 which flanked the gateways and corresponded to the length of the gates; this was the lower pave
ment.
Ezekiel 40:17 Then he brought
me into the outer court, and there were chambers and a pave
ment laid out all around the court. Thirty chambers faced the pave
ment,
Ezekiel 40:14 Next he
measured the gateposts to be sixty cubits high. The gateway extended around to the gatepost of the courtyard.
Ezekiel 40:13 Then he
measured the gateway from the roof of one gate chamber to the roof of the opposite one; the distance was twenty-five cubits from doorway to doorway.
Ezekiel 40:11 And he
measured the width of the gateway entrance to be ten cubits, and its length was thirteen cubits.
Ezekiel 40:10 There were three gate chambers on each side of the east gate, each with the sa
me measure
ments, and the gateposts on either side also had the sa
me measure
ments.
Ezekiel 40:8 Then he
measured the portico of the gateway inside;
Ezekiel 40:6 Then he ca
me to the gate facing east and climbed its steps. He
measured the threshold of the gate to be one rod deep.
Ezekiel 40:5 And I saw a wall surrounding the temple area. Now the length of the
measuring rod in the man’s hand was six long cubits (each
measuring a cubit and a handbreadth), and he
measured the wall to be one rod thick and one rod high."
Ezekiel 40:4 “Son of man,” he said to
me, “look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Report to the house of Israel everything you see.”"
Ezekiel 40:3 So He took
me there, and I saw a man whose appearance was like bronze. He was standing in the gateway with a linen cord and a
measuring rod in his hand.
Ezekiel 40:2 In visions of God He took
me to the land of Israel and set
me on a very high mountain, on whose southern slope was a structure that resembled a city.
Ezekiel 40:1 In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month—in the fourteenth year after Jerusalem had been struck down—on that very day the hand of the LORD was upon
me, and He took
me there."
Ezekiel 39:26 They will forget their disgrace and all the treachery they committed against
Me, when they dwell securely in their land, with no one to frighten them.
Ezekiel 39:25 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Now I will restore Jacob from captivity and will have compassion on the whole house of Israel, and I will be jealous for My holy na
me.
Ezekiel 39:23 And the nations will know that the house of Israel went into exile for their iniquity, because they were unfaithful to
Me. So I hid My face from them and delivered them into the hands of their enemies, so that they all fell by the sword.
Ezekiel 39:21 I will display My glory among the nations, and all the nations will see the judg
ment that I execute and the hand that I lay upon them.
Ezekiel 39:20 And at My table you will eat your fill of horses and riders, of mighty
men and warriors of every kind,’ declares the Lord GOD."
Ezekiel 39:17 And as for you, son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says: Call out to every kind of bird and to every beast of the field: ‘Assemble and co
me together from all around to the sacrificial feast that I am preparing for you, a great feast on the mountains of Israel. There you will eat flesh and drink blood."
Ezekiel 39:16 (Even the city will be na
med Hamonah.) And so they will cleanse the land.
Ezekiel 39:14 And
men will be employed to continually pass through the land to cleanse it by burying the invaders who remain on the ground. At the end of the seven months they will begin their search.
Ezekiel 39:7 So I will make My holy na
me known among My people Israel and will no longer allow it to be profaned. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
Ezekiel 39:1 “As for you, O son of man, prophesy against Gog and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, chief prince of
Meshech and Tubal."
Ezekiel 38:22 I will execute judg
ment upon him with plague and bloodshed. I will pour out torrents of rain, hailstones, fire, and sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him.
Ezekiel 38:18 Now on that day when Gog co
mes against the land of Israel, declares the Lord GOD, My wrath will flare up.
Ezekiel 38:17 This is what the Lord GOD says: Are you the one of whom I have spoken in for
mer days through My servants, the prophets of Israel, who in those ti
mes prophesied for years that I would bring you against them?
Ezekiel 38:16 You will advance against My people Israel like a cloud covering the land. It will happen in the latter days, O Gog, that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know
Me when I show Myself holy in you before their eyes.
Ezekiel 38:15 And you will co
me from your place out of the far north—you and many peoples with you, all riding horses—a mighty horde, a huge army."
Ezekiel 38:13 Sheba and Dedan and the
merchants of Tarshish with all its villages will ask, ‘Have you co
me to capture the plunder? Have you assembled your hordes to carry away loot, to make off with silver and gold, to take cattle and goods, to seize great spoil?’"
Ezekiel 38:11 You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will co
me against a tranquil people who dwell securely, all of them living without walls or bars or gates—"
Ezekiel 38:8 After a long ti
me you will be summoned. In the latter years you will enter a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and all now dwell securely.
Ezekiel 38:6 as well as Go
mer with all its troops, and Beth-togarmah from the far north with all its troops—the many nations with you."
Ezekiel 38:5 Persia, Cush, and Put will accompany them, all with shields and hel
mets,
Ezekiel 38:4 I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws, and bring you out with all your army—your horses, your horse
men in full armor, and a great company ar
med with shields and bucklers, all brandishing their swords."
Ezekiel 38:3 and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, chief prince of
Meshech and Tubal.
Ezekiel 38:2 “Son of man, set your face against Gog of the land of Magog, the chief prince of
Meshech and Tubal. Prophesy against him"
Ezekiel 37:19 you are to tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel associated with him, and I will put them together with the stick of Judah. I will make them into a single stick, and they will beco
me one in My hand.’"
Ezekiel 37:18 When your people ask you, ‘Won’t you explain to us what you
mean by these?’"
Ezekiel 37:17 Then join them together into one stick, so that they beco
me one in your hand.
Ezekiel 37:11 Then He said to
me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Look, they are saying, ‘Our bones are dried up, and our hope has perished; we are cut off.’"
Ezekiel 37:10 So I prophesied as He had commanded
me, and the breath entered them, and they ca
me to life and stood on their feet—a vast army."
Ezekiel 37:9 Then He said to
me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and tell the breath that this is what the Lord GOD says: Co
me from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, so that they may live!”"
Ezekiel 37:7 So I prophesied as I had been commanded. And as I prophesied, there was suddenly a noise, a rattling, and the bones ca
me together, bone to bone.
Ezekiel 37:6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh grow upon you and cover you with skin. I will put breath within you so that you will co
me to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”"
Ezekiel 37:5 This is what the Lord GOD says to these bones: I will cause breath to enter you, and you will co
me to life.
Ezekiel 37:4 And He said to
me, “Prophesy concerning these bones and tell them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD!"
Ezekiel 37:3 Then He asked
me, “Son of man, can these bones co
me to life?” “O Lord GOD,” I replied, “only You know.”"
Ezekiel 37:2 He led
me all around among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, and indeed, they were very dry.
Ezekiel 37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon
me, and He brought
me out by His Spirit and set
me down in the middle of the valley, and it was full of bones.
Ezekiel 36:38 Like the nu
merous flocks for sacrifices at Jerusalem during her appointed feasts, so the ruined cities will be filled with flocks of people. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”"
Ezekiel 36:35 Then they will say, ‘This land that was desolate has beco
me like the garden of Eden. The cities that were once ruined, desolate, and destroyed are now fortified and inhabited.’"
Ezekiel 36:32 It is not for your sake that I will act, declares the Lord GOD—let it be known to you. Be asha
med and disgraced for your ways, O house of Israel!"
Ezekiel 36:31 Then you will re
member your evil ways and wicked deeds, and you will loathe yourselves for your iniquities and abominations.
Ezekiel 36:23 I will show the holiness of My great na
me, which has been profaned among the nations—the na
me you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD, declares the Lord GOD, when I show My holiness in you before their eyes."
Ezekiel 36:22 Therefore tell the house of Israel that this is what the Lord GOD says: It is not for your sake that I will act, O house of Israel, but for My holy na
me, which you profaned among the nations to which you went.
Ezekiel 36:21 But I had concern for My holy na
me, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations to which they had gone.
Ezekiel 36:20 And wherever they went among the nations, they profaned My holy na
me, because it was said of them, ‘These are the people of the LORD, yet they had to leave His land.’"
Ezekiel 36:17 “Son of man, when the people of Israel lived in their land, they defiled it by their own ways and deeds. Their behavior before
Me was like the uncleanness of a woman’s impurity."
Ezekiel 36:14 therefore you will no longer devour
men or deprive your nation of its children, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 36:13 For this is what the Lord GOD says: Because people say to you, ‘You devour
men and deprive your nation of its children,’"
Ezekiel 36:8 But you, O mountains of Israel, will produce branches and bear fruit for My people Israel, for they will soon co
me ho
me.
Ezekiel 36:5 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Surely in My burning zeal I have spoken against the rest of the nations, and against all Edom, who took My land as their own possession with wholehearted joy and utter contempt, so that its pastureland beca
me plunder.
Ezekiel 36:4 therefore, O mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD. This is what the Lord GOD says to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys, to the desolate ruins and abandoned cities, which have beco
me a spoil and a mockery to the rest of the nations around you.
Ezekiel 36:3 therefore prophesy and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Because they have made you desolate and have trampled you on every side, so that you beca
me a possession of the rest of the nations and were taken up in slander by the lips of their talkers,
Ezekiel 36:2 This is what the Lord GOD says: Because the enemy has said of you, ‘Aha! The ancient heights have beco
me our possession,’"
Ezekiel 35:15 As you rejoiced when the inheritance of the house of Israel beca
me desolate, so will I do to you. You will beco
me a desolation, O Mount Seir, and so will all of Edom. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel 35:13 You boasted against
Me with your mouth and multiplied your words against
Me. I heard it Myself!
Ezekiel 35:7 I will make Mount Seir a desolate waste and will cut off from it those who co
me and go.
Ezekiel 35:5 Because you harbored an ancient hatred and delivered the Israelites over to the sword in the ti
me of their disaster at the final stage of their punish
ment,
Ezekiel 35:4 I will turn your cities into ruins, and you will beco
me a desolation. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel 35:1 Moreover, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 34:28 They will no longer be prey for the nations, and the beasts of the earth will not consu
me them. They will dwell securely, and no one will frighten them.
Ezekiel 34:13 I will bring them out from the peoples, gather them from the countries, and bring them into their own land. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines, and in all the settle
ments of the land.
Ezekiel 34:8 ‘As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, because My flock lacks a shepherd and has beco
me prey and food for every wild beast, and because My shepherds did not search for My flock but fed themselves instead,"
Ezekiel 34:5 They were scattered for lack of a shepherd, and when they were scattered they beca
me food for all the wild beasts.
Ezekiel 33:33 So when it co
mes to pass—and surely it will co
me—then they will know that a prophet has been among them.”"
Ezekiel 33:32 Indeed, you are to them like a singer of love songs with a beautiful voice, who skillfully plays an instru
ment. They hear your words but do not put them into practice.
Ezekiel 33:31 So My people co
me to you as usual, sit before you, and hear your words; but they do not put them into practice. Although they express love with their mouths, their hearts pursue dishonest gain.
Ezekiel 33:30 As for you, son of man, your people are talking about you near the city walls and in the doorways of their houses. One speaks to another, each saying to his brother, ‘Co
me and hear the
message that has co
me from the LORD!’"
Ezekiel 33:28 I will make the land a desolate waste, and the pride of her strength will co
me to an end. The mountains of Israel will beco
me desolate, so that no one will pass through.
Ezekiel 33:25 Therefore tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You eat
meat with the blood in it, lift up your eyes to your idols, and shed blood. Should you then possess the land?"
Ezekiel 33:22 Now the evening before the fugitive arrived, the hand of the LORD was upon
me, and He opened my mouth before the man ca
me to
me in the morning. So my mouth was opened and I was no longer mute.
Ezekiel 33:21 In the twelfth year of our exile, on the fifth day of the tenth month, a fugitive from Jerusalem ca
me to
me and reported, “The city has been taken!”"
Ezekiel 33:13 If I tell the righteous man that he will surely live, but he then trusts in his righteousness and commits iniquity, then none of his righteous works will be re
membered; he will die because of the iniquity he has committed.
Ezekiel 33:7 As for you, O son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word from My mouth and give them the warning from
Me.
Ezekiel 33:6 But if the watchman sees the sword coming and fails to blow the horn to warn the people, and the sword co
mes and takes away a life, then that one will be taken away in his iniquity, but I will hold the watchman accountable for his blood.’"
Ezekiel 33:4 Then if anyone hears the sound of the horn but fails to heed the warning, and the sword co
mes and takes him away, his blood will be on his own head.
Ezekiel 32:30 All the leaders of the north and all the Sidonians are there; they went down in disgrace with the slain, despite the terror of their might. They lie uncircumcised with those slain by the sword and bear their sha
me with those who descend to the Pit.
Ezekiel 32:26 Meshech and Tubal are there with all their multitudes, with their graves all around them. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, because they spread their terror in the land of the living.
Ezekiel 32:21 Mighty chiefs will speak from the midst of Sheol about Egypt and her allies: ‘They have co
me down and lie with the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.’"
Ezekiel 32:17 In the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 32:16 This is the la
ment they will chant for her; the daughters of the nations will chant it. Over Egypt and all her multitudes they will chant it, declares the Lord GOD.”"
Ezekiel 32:11 For this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘The sword of the king of Babylon will co
me against you!"
Ezekiel 32:10 I will cause many peoples to be appalled over you, and their kings will shudder in horror because of you when I brandish My sword before them. On the day of your downfall each of them will tremble every mo
ment for his life.’"
Ezekiel 32:2 “Son of man, take up a la
ment for Pharaoh king of Egypt and say to him: ‘You are like a lion among the nations; you are like a monster in the seas. You thrash about in your rivers, churning up the waters with your feet and muddying the streams.’"
Ezekiel 32:1 In the twelfth year, on the first day of the twelfth month, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 31:14 This happened so that no other trees by the waters would beco
me great in height and set their tops among the clouds, and no other well-watered trees would reach them in height. For they have all been consigned to death, to the depths of the earth, among the mortals who descend to the Pit.’"
Ezekiel 31:10 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Since it beca
me great in height and set its top among the clouds, and it grew proud on account of its height,"
Ezekiel 31:1 In the eleventh year, on the first day of the third month, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 30:20 In the eleventh year, on the seventh day of the first month, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 30:19 So I will execute judg
ment on Egypt, and they will know that I am the LORD.”"
Ezekiel 30:18 The day will be darkened in Tahpanhes when I break the yoke of Egypt and her proud strength co
mes to an end. A cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
Ezekiel 30:17 The young
men of On and Pi-beseth will fall by the sword, and those cities will go into captivity.
Ezekiel 30:16 I will set fire to Egypt, Pelusium will writhe in anguish, Thebes will be split open, and
Memphis will face daily distress.
Ezekiel 30:14 I will lay waste Pathros, set fire to Zoan, and execute judg
ment on Thebes.
Ezekiel 30:13 This is what the Lord GOD says: I will destroy the idols and put an end to the images in
Memphis. There will no longer be a prince in Egypt, and I will instill fear in that land.
Ezekiel 30:9 On that day
messengers will go out from
Me in ships to frighten Cush out of complacency. Anguish will co
me upon them on the day of Egypt’s doom. For it is indeed coming."
Ezekiel 30:5 Cush, Put, and Lud, and all the various peoples, as well as Libya and the
men of the covenant land, will fall with Egypt by the sword.
Ezekiel 30:4 A sword will co
me against Egypt, and there will be anguish in Cush when the slain fall in Egypt, its wealth is taken away, and its foundations are torn down.
Ezekiel 30:3 For the day is near, the Day of the LORD is near. It will be a day of clouds, a ti
me of doom for the nations.
Ezekiel 29:20 I have given him the land of Egypt as the reward for his labor, because it was done for
Me, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 29:17 In the twenty-seventh year, on the first day of the first month, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 29:9 The land of Egypt will beco
me a desolate wasteland. Then they will know that I am the LORD. Because you said, ‘The Nile is mine; I made it,’"
Ezekiel 29:1 In the tenth year, on the twelfth day of the tenth month, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 28:26 And there they will dwell securely, build houses, and plant vineyards. They will dwell securely when I execute judg
ments against all those around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God.’”"
Ezekiel 28:22 And you are to declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against you, O Sidon, and I will be glorified within you. They will know that I am the LORD when I execute judg
ments against her and demonstrate My holiness through her."
Ezekiel 28:19 All the nations who know you are appalled over you. You have co
me to a horrible end and will be no more.’”"
Ezekiel 28:18 By the multitude of your iniquities and the dishonesty of your trading you have profaned your sanctuaries. So I made fire co
me from within you, and it consu
med you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the eyes of all who saw you.
Ezekiel 28:15 From the day you were created you were bla
meless in your ways—until wickedness was found in you."
Ezekiel 28:13 You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every kind of precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and e
merald. Your mountings and settings were crafted in gold, prepared on the day of your creation.
Ezekiel 28:12 “Son of man, take up a la
ment for the king of Tyre and tell him that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty."
Ezekiel 27:36 Those who trade among the nations hiss at you; you have co
me to a horrible end and will be no more.’”"
Ezekiel 27:34 Now you are shattered by the seas in the depths of the waters; your
merchandise and the people among you have gone down with you.
Ezekiel 27:33 When your wares went out to sea, you satisfied many nations. You enriched the kings of the earth with your abundant wealth and
merchandise.
Ezekiel 27:32 As they wail and mourn over you, they will take up a la
ment for you: ‘Who was ever like Tyre, silenced in the middle of the sea?"
Ezekiel 27:27 Your wealth, wares, and
merchandise, your sailors, captains, and shipwrights, your
merchants and all the warriors within you, with all the other people on board, will sink into the heart of the sea on the day of your downfall.
Ezekiel 27:26 Your oars
men have brought you onto the high seas, but the east wind will shatter you in the heart of the sea.
Ezekiel 27:25 The ships of Tarshish carried your
merchandise. And you were filled with heavy cargo in the heart of the sea.
Ezekiel 27:24 In your marketplace they traded with you fine gar
ments of blue, embroidered work, and multicolored rugs with cords tightly twisted and knotted.
Ezekiel 27:23 Haran, Canneh, and Eden traded with you, and so did the

mers, trading in lambs, rams, and goats.

merchant because of your great wealth of goods; they exchanged silver, iron, tin, and lead for your wares.

men of Gammad were in your towers. They hung their shields around your walls; they perfected your beauty.
Ezekiel 27:10 Men of Persia, Lydia, and Put served as warriors in your army. They hung their shields and hel
mets on your walls; they gave you splendor.
Ezekiel 27:9 The elders of Gebal were aboard as shipwrights, repairing your leaks. All the ships of the sea and their sailors ca
me alongside to barter for your
merchandise.
Ezekiel 27:8 The
men of Sidon and Arvad were your oars
men. Your
men of skill, O Tyre, were there as your captains.
Ezekiel 27:3 Tell Tyre, who dwells at the gateway to the sea,
merchant of the peoples on many coasts, that this is what the Lord GOD says: You have said, O Tyre, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’"
Ezekiel 27:2 “Now you, son of man, take up a la
ment for Tyre."
Ezekiel 26:17 Then they will la
ment for you, saying, “How you have perished, O city of renown inhabited by seafaring
men—she who was powerful on the sea, along with her people, who imposed terror on all peoples!"
Ezekiel 26:16 All the princes of the sea will descend from their thrones, remove their robes, and strip off their embroidered gar
ments. Clothed with terror, they will sit on the ground, trembling every mo
ment, appalled over you.
Ezekiel 26:14 I will make you a bare rock, and you will beco
me a place to spread the fishing nets. You will never be rebuilt, for I, the LORD, have spoken, declares the Lord GOD.’"
Ezekiel 26:12 They will plunder your wealth and pillage your
merchandise. They will demolish your walls, tear down your beautiful ho
mes, and throw your stones and timber and soil into the water.
Ezekiel 26:5 She will beco
me a place to spread nets in the sea, for I have spoken, declares the Lord GOD. She will beco
me plunder for the nations,
Ezekiel 26:2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said of Jerusalem, ‘Aha! The gate to the nations is broken; it has swung open to
me; now that she lies in ruins I will be filled,’"
Ezekiel 26:1 In the eleventh month of the twelfth year, on the first day of the month, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 25:11 So I will execute judg
ments on Moab, and they will know that I am the LORD.’"
Ezekiel 25:10 I will give it along with the Ammonites as a possession to the people of the East, so that the Ammonites will no longer be re
membered among the nations.
Ezekiel 25:9 therefore I will indeed expose the flank of Moab beginning with its frontier cities—Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-
meon, and Kiriathaim—the glory of the land."
Ezekiel 25:5 I will make Rabbah a pasture for ca
mels, and Ammon a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’"
Ezekiel 25:3 Tell the Ammonites to hear the word of the Lord GOD, for this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you exclai
med, “Aha!” when My sanctuary was profaned, when the land of Israel was laid waste, and when the house of Judah went into exile,"
Ezekiel 24:26 on that day a fugitive will co
me and tell you the news.
Ezekiel 24:20 So I answered them, “The word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying:"
Ezekiel 24:19 Then the people asked
me, “Won’t you tell us what these things you are doing
mean to us?”"
Ezekiel 24:14 I, the LORD, have spoken; the ti
me is coming, and I will act. I will not refrain or show pity, nor will I relent. I will judge you according to your ways and deeds,’ declares the Lord GOD.”"
Ezekiel 24:11 Set the empty pot on its coals until it beco
mes hot and its copper glows. Then its impurity will
melt within; its rust will be consu
med.
Ezekiel 24:10 Pile on the logs and kindle the fire; cook the
meat well and mix in the spices; let the bones be burned.
Ezekiel 24:6 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the city of bloodshed, to the pot now rusted, whose rust will not co
me off! Empty it piece by piece; cast no lots for its contents."
Ezekiel 24:4 Put in the pieces of
meat, every good piece—thigh and shoulder—fill it with choice bones."
Ezekiel 24:1 In the ninth year, on the tenth day of the tenth month, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 23:48 So I will put an end to indecency in the land, and all the wo
men will be admonished not to imitate your behavior.
Ezekiel 23:45 But righteous
men will sentence them to the punish
ment of those who commit adultery and bloodshed, because they are adulteresses with blood on their hands.
Ezekiel 23:44 And they slept with her as with a prostitute; they slept with Oholah and Oholibah, those lewd wo
men.
Ezekiel 23:42 accompanied by the sound of a carefree crowd. Drunkards were brought in from the desert along with
men from the rabble, who put bracelets on your wrists and beautiful crowns on your head.
Ezekiel 23:40 Furthermore, you sisters sent
messengers for
men who ca
me from afar; and behold, when they arrived, you bathed for them, painted your eyes, and adorned yourself with jewelry.
Ezekiel 23:38 They have also done this to
Me: On that very sa
me day, they defiled My sanctuary and profaned My Sabbaths.
Ezekiel 23:37 For they have committed adultery, and blood is on their hands. They have committed adultery with their idols. They have even sacrificed their children, whom they bore to
Me, in the fire as food for their idols.
Ezekiel 23:36 Then the LORD said to
me: “Son of man, will you pass judg
ment against Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to them their abominations."
Ezekiel 23:35 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have forgotten
Me and have cast
Me behind your back, you must bear the consequences of your indecency and prostitution.’”"
Ezekiel 23:29 They will treat you with hatred, take all for which you have worked, and leave you naked and bare, so that the sha
me of your prostitution will be exposed. Your indecency and promiscuity
Ezekiel 23:27 So I will put an end to your indecency and prostitution, which began in the land of Egypt, and you will not lift your eyes to them or re
member Egypt anymore.’"
Ezekiel 23:25 And I will set My jealous rage against you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will cut off your noses and ears, and your survivors will fall by the sword. They will seize your sons and daughters, and your remnant will be consu
med by fire.
Ezekiel 23:24 They will co
me against you with a host of peoples, with weapons, chariots, and wagons. They will array themselves against you on every side with buckler and shield and hel
met. I will delegate judg
ment to them, and they will punish you according to their own standards.
Ezekiel 23:23 the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, the
men of Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them—all desirable young
men, governors and commanders, officers and
men of renown, mounted on horses."
Ezekiel 23:19 Yet she multiplied her promiscuity, re
membering the days of her youth, when she had prostituted herself in the land of Egypt
Ezekiel 23:17 Then the Babylonians ca
me to her, to the bed of love, and in their lust they defiled her. But after she had been defiled by them, she turned away in disgust.
Ezekiel 23:16 At the sight of them, she lusted for them and sent
messengers to them in Chaldea.
Ezekiel 23:14 But Oholibah carried her prostitution even further. She saw the
men portrayed on the wall, images of the Chaldeans, engraved in vermilion,
Ezekiel 23:13 And I saw that she too had defiled herself; both of them had taken the sa
me path.
Ezekiel 23:12 She too lusted after the Assyrians—governors and commanders, warriors dressed in splendor, horse
men riding on steeds, all desirable young
men."
Ezekiel 23:10 They exposed her nakedness, seized her sons and daughters, and put her to the sword. Thus she beca
me a byword among wo
men, and they executed judg
ment against her.
Ezekiel 23:8 She did not give up the prostitution she began in Egypt, when
men slept with her in her youth, caressed her virgin bosom, and poured out their lust upon her.
Ezekiel 23:6 clothed in blue, governors and commanders, all desirable young
men, horse
men mounted on steeds.
Ezekiel 23:4 The older was na
med Oholah, and her sister was na
med Oholibah. They beca
me Mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. As for their identities, Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.
Ezekiel 23:2 “Son of man, there were two wo
men, daughters of the sa
me mother,"
Ezekiel 22:31 So I have poured out My indignation upon them and consu
med them with the fire of My fury. I have brought their ways down upon their own heads, declares the Lord GOD.”"
Ezekiel 22:30 I searched for a man among them to repair the wall and stand in the gap before
Me on behalf of the land, so that I should not destroy it. But I found no one.
Ezekiel 22:22 As silver is
melted in a furnace, so you will be
melted within the city. Then you will know that I, the LORD, have poured out My wrath upon you.’”"
Ezekiel 22:21 Yes, I will gather you together and blow on you with the fire of My wrath, and you will be
melted within the city.
Ezekiel 22:20 Just as one gathers silver, copper, iron, lead, and tin into the furnace to
melt with a fiery blast, so I will gather you in My anger and wrath, leave you there, and
melt you.
Ezekiel 22:19 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because all of you have beco
me dross, behold, I will gather you into Jerusalem."
Ezekiel 22:18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has beco
me dross to
Me. All of them are copper, tin, iron, and lead inside the furnace; they are but the dross of silver."
Ezekiel 22:12 In you they take bribes to shed blood. You engage in usury, take excess interest, and extort your neighbors. But
Me you have forgotten, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 22:10 In you they have uncovered the nakedness of their fathers; in you they violate wo
men during their
menstrual impurity.
Ezekiel 22:9 Among you are slanderous
men bent on bloodshed; within you are those who eat on the mountain shrines and commit acts of indecency.
Ezekiel 22:4 you are guilty of the blood you have shed, and you are defiled by the idols you have made. You have brought your days to a close and have co
me to the end of your years. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations and a mockery to all the lands.
Ezekiel 22:2 “As for you, son of man, will you judge her? Will you pass judg
ment on the city of bloodshed? Then confront her with all her abominations"
Ezekiel 21:32 You will be fuel for the fire. Your blood will stain your own land. You will not be re
membered, for I, the LORD, have spoken.’”"
Ezekiel 21:31 I will pour out My anger upon you; I will breathe the fire of My fury against you; I will hand you over to brutal
men, skilled in destruction.
Ezekiel 21:29 while they offer false visions for you and lying divinations about you—to be placed on the necks of the wicked who are slain, whose day has co
me, the ti
me of their final punish
ment."
Ezekiel 21:28 Now prophesy, son of man, and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says concerning the Ammonites and their contempt: ‘A sword! A sword is drawn for slaughter, polished to consu
me, to flash like lightning—"
Ezekiel 21:27 A ruin, a ruin, I will make it a ruin! And it will not be restored until the arrival of Him to whom it belongs, to whom I have assigned the right of judg
ment.’"
Ezekiel 21:25 And you, O profane and wicked prince of Israel, the day has co
me for your final punish
ment.’"
Ezekiel 21:24 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have drawn attention to your guilt, exposing your transgressions, so that your sins are revealed in all your deeds—because you have co
me to re
membrance—you shall be taken in hand."
Ezekiel 21:23 It will seem like a false o
men to the eyes of those who have sworn allegiance to him, but it will draw attention to their guilt and take them captive.
Ezekiel 21:21 For the king of Babylon stands at the fork in the road, at the junction of the two roads, to seek an o
men: He shakes the arrows, he consults the idols, he examines the liver.
Ezekiel 21:20 Mark out one road for the sword to co
me against Rabbah of the Ammonites, and another against Judah into fortified Jerusalem.
Ezekiel 21:19 “Now you, son of man, mark out two roads for the sword of the king of Babylon to take, both starting from the sa
me land. And make a signpost where the road branches off to each city."
Ezekiel 21:15 So that their hearts may
melt and many may stumble, I have appointed at all their gates a sword for slaughter. Yes, it is ready to flash like lightning; it is drawn for slaughter.
Ezekiel 21:14 ‘So then, son of man, prophesy and strike your hands together. Let the sword strike two ti
mes, even three. It is a sword that slays, a sword of great slaughter closing in on every side!"
Ezekiel 21:13 Surely testing will co
me! And what if even the scepter, which the sword despises, does not continue?’ declares the Lord GOD."
Ezekiel 21:7 And when they ask, ‘Why are you groaning?’ you are to say, ‘Because of the news that is coming. Every heart will
melt, and every hand will go limp. Every spirit will faint, and every knee will turn to water.’ Yes, it is coming and it will surely happen, declares the Lord GOD.”"
Ezekiel 20:49 Then I said, “Ah, Lord GOD, they are saying of
me, ‘Is he not just telling parables?’”"
Ezekiel 20:47 Say to the forest of the Negev: Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the Lord GOD says: I am about to ignite in you a fire, and it will devour all your trees, both green and dry. The blazing fla
me will not be quenched, and by it every face from south to north will be scorched.
Ezekiel 20:44 Then you will know, O house of Israel, that I am the LORD, when I have dealt with you for the sake of My na
me and not according to your wicked ways and corrupt acts, declares the Lord GOD.”"
Ezekiel 20:43 There you will re
member your ways and all the deeds with which you have defiled yourselves, and you will loathe yourselves for all the evils you have done.
Ezekiel 20:40 For on My holy mountain, the high mountain of Israel, declares the Lord GOD, there the whole house of Israel, all of them, will serve
Me in the land. There I will accept them and will require your offerings and choice gifts, along with all your holy sacrifices.
Ezekiel 20:39 And as for you, O house of Israel, this is what the Lord GOD says: Go and serve your idols, every one of you. But afterward, you will surely listen to
Me, and you will no longer defile My holy na
me with your gifts and idols.
Ezekiel 20:38 And I will purge you of those who rebel and transgress against
Me. I will bring them out of the land in which they dwell, but they will not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel 20:36 Just as I entered into judg
ment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so I will enter into judg
ment with you, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 20:35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of the nations, where I will enter into judg
ment with you face to face.
Ezekiel 20:32 When you say, ‘Let us be like the nations, like the peoples of the lands, serving wood and stone,’ what you have in mind will never co
me to pass."
Ezekiel 20:28 When I brought them into the land that I swore to give them and they saw any high hill or leafy tree, there they offered their sacrifices, presented offerings that provoked
Me, sent up their fragrant incense, and poured out their drink offerings.
Ezekiel 20:27 Therefore, son of man, speak to the house of Israel, and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: In this way also your fathers blasphe
med
Me by their unfaithfulness against
Me.
Ezekiel 20:22 But I withheld My hand and acted for the sake of My na
me, so that it would not be profaned in the eyes of the nations in whose sight I had brought them out.
Ezekiel 20:21 But the children rebelled against
Me. They did not walk in My statutes or carefully observe My ordinances—though the man who does these things will live by them—and they profaned My Sabbaths. So I resolved to pour out My wrath upon them and vent My anger against them in the wilderness."
Ezekiel 20:14 But I acted for the sake of My na
me, so that it would not be profaned in the eyes of the nations in whose sight I had brought them out.
Ezekiel 20:13 Yet the house of Israel rebelled against
Me in the wilderness. They did not follow My statutes and they rejected My ordinances—though the man who does these things will live by them—and they utterly profaned My Sabbaths. Then I resolved to pour out My wrath upon them and put an end to them in the wilderness."
Ezekiel 20:9 But I acted for the sake of My na
me, that it should not be profaned in the eyes of the nations among whom they were living, in whose sight I had revealed Myself to Israel by bringing them out of the land of Egypt.
Ezekiel 20:8 But they rebelled against
Me and refused to listen. None of them cast away the abominations before their eyes, and they did not forsake the idols of Egypt. So I resolved to pour out My wrath upon them and vent My anger against them in the land of Egypt.
Ezekiel 20:3 “Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: Have you co
me to inquire of
Me? As surely as I live, I will not be consulted by you, declares the Lord GOD."
Ezekiel 20:1 In the seventh year, on the tenth day of the fifth month, so
me of the elders of Israel ca
me to inquire of the LORD, and they sat down before
me.
Ezekiel 19:14 Fire has gone out from its main branch and devoured its fruit; on it no strong branch remains fit for a ruler’s scepter.’ This is a la
ment and shall be used as a la
ment.”"
Ezekiel 19:12 But it was uprooted in fury, cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up its fruit. Its strong branches were stripped off and they withered; the fire consu
med them.
Ezekiel 19:6 He prowled among the lions, and beca
me a young lion. After learning to tear his prey, he devoured
men.
Ezekiel 19:3 She brought up one of her cubs, and he beca
me a young lion. After learning to tear his prey, he devoured
men.
Ezekiel 19:1 “As for you, take up a la
ment for the princes of Israel"
Ezekiel 18:30 Therefore, O house of Israel, I will judge you, each according to his ways, declares the Lord GOD. Repent and turn from all your transgressions, so that your iniquity will not beco
me your downfall.
Ezekiel 18:24 But if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and practices iniquity, committing the sa
me abominations as the wicked, will he live? None of the righteous acts he did will be re
membered. Because of the unfaithfulness and sin he has committed, he will die.
Ezekiel 18:8 He does not engage in usury or take excess interest, but he withholds his hand from iniquity and executes true justice between
men.
Ezekiel 18:4 Behold, every soul belongs to
Me; both father and son are Mine. The soul who sins is the one who will die.
Ezekiel 18:2 “What do you people
mean by quoting this proverb about the land of Israel: ‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the teeth of the children are set on edge’?"
Ezekiel 17:23 I will plant it on the mountain heights of Israel so that it will bear branches; it will yield fruit and beco
me a majestic cedar. Birds of every kind will nest under it, taking shelter in the shade of its branches.
Ezekiel 17:20 I will spread My net over him and catch him in My snare. I will bring him to Babylon and execute judg
ment upon him there for the treason he committed against
Me.
Ezekiel 17:13 He took a
member of the royal family and made a covenant with him, putting him under oath. Then he carried away the leading
men of the land,
Ezekiel 17:12 “Now say to this rebellious house: ‘Do you not know what these things
mean?’ Tell them, ‘Behold, the king of Babylon ca
me to Jerusalem, carried off its king and officials, and brought them back with him to Babylon."
Ezekiel 17:8 It had been planted in good soil by abundant waters in order to yield branches and bear fruit and beco
me a splendid vine.’"
Ezekiel 17:6 It sprouted and beca
me a spreading vine, low in height, with branches turned toward him; yet its roots remained where it stood. So it beca
me a vine and yielded branches and sent out shoots.
Ezekiel 17:5 He took so
me of the seed of the land and planted it in fertile soil; he placed it by abundant waters and set it out like a willow.
Ezekiel 17:4 He plucked off its topmost shoot, carried it to the land of
merchants, and planted it in a city of traders.
Ezekiel 17:3 and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘A great eagle with great wings and long pinions, full of feathers of many colors, ca
me to Lebanon and took away the top of the cedar."
Ezekiel 16:63 so that when I make atone
ment for all you have done, you will re
member and be asha
med and never again open your mouth because of your disgrace, declares the Lord GOD.”"
Ezekiel 16:61 Then you will re
member your ways and be asha
med when you receive your older and younger sisters. I will give them to you as daughters, but not because of My covenant with you.
Ezekiel 16:60 But I will re
member the covenant I made with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an everlasting covenant with you.
Ezekiel 16:55 And your sisters, Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, will return to their for
mer state. You and your daughters will also return to your for
mer state.
Ezekiel 16:54 So you will bear your disgrace and be asha
med of all you did to comfort them.
Ezekiel 16:52 So now you must bear your disgrace, since you have brought justification for your sisters. For they appear more righteous than you, because your sins were more vile than theirs. So you too must bear your sha
me and disgrace, since you have made your sisters appear righteous.
Ezekiel 16:50 Thus they were haughty and committed abominations before
Me. Therefore I removed them, as you have seen.
Ezekiel 16:43 Because you did not re
member the days of your youth, but enraged
Me with all these things, I will surely bring your deeds down upon your own head, declares the Lord GOD. Have you not committed this lewdness on top of all your other abominations?
Ezekiel 16:41 Then they will burn down your houses and execute judg
ment against you in the sight of many wo
men. I will put an end to your prostitution, and you will never again pay your lovers.
Ezekiel 16:38 And I will sentence you to the punish
ment of wo
men who commit adultery and those who shed blood; so I will bring upon you the wrath of your bloodshed and jealousy.
Ezekiel 16:34 So your prostitution is the opposite of that of other wo
men: No one solicited your favors, and you paid a fee instead of receiving one; so you are the very opposite!
Ezekiel 16:33 Men give gifts to all their prostitutes, but you gave gifts to all your lovers. You bribed them to co
me to you from everywhere for your illicit favors.
Ezekiel 16:31 But when you built your mounds at the head of every street and made your lofty shrines in every public square, you were not even like a prostitute, because you scorned pay
ment.
Ezekiel 16:30 How weak-willed is your heart, declares the Lord GOD, while you do all these things, the acts of a sha
meless prostitute!
Ezekiel 16:29 So you extended your promiscuity to Chaldea, the land of
merchants—but even with this you were not satisfied!"
Ezekiel 16:27 Therefore I stretched out My hand against you and reduced your portion. I gave you over to the desire of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who were asha
med of your lewd conduct.
Ezekiel 16:26 You prostituted yourself with your lustful neighbors, the Egyptians, and increased your promiscuity to provoke
Me to anger.
Ezekiel 16:22 And in all your abominations and acts of prostitution, you did not re
member the days of your youth when you were naked and bare, wallowing in your own blood.
Ezekiel 16:20 You even took the sons and daughters you bore to
Me and sacrificed them as food to idols. Was your prostitution not enough?
Ezekiel 16:18 You took your embroidered gar
ments to cover them, and you set My oil and incense before them.
Ezekiel 16:16 You took so
me of your gar
ments and made colorful high places for yourself, and on them you prostituted yourself. Such things should not have happened; never should they have occurred!
Ezekiel 16:15 But because of your fa
me, you trusted in your beauty and played the harlot. You lavished your favors on everyone who passed by, and your beauty was theirs for the asking.
Ezekiel 16:14 Your fa
me spread among the nations on account of your beauty, for it was perfect in the splendor I bestowed on you, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 16:13 So you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was made of fine linen, silk, and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour, honey, and oil. You beca
me very beautiful and rose to be queen.
Ezekiel 16:8 Then I passed by and saw you, and you were indeed old enough for love. So I spread My cloak over you and covered your nakedness. I pledged Myself to you, entered into a covenant with you, and you beca
me Mine, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 16:7 I made you thrive like a plant of the field. You grew up and matured and beca
me very beautiful. Your breasts were for
med and your hair grew, but you were naked and bare.
Ezekiel 15:7 And I will set My face against them. Though they may have escaped the fire, yet another fire will consu
me them. And when I set My face against them, you will know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel 15:5 Even when it was whole, it could not be made useful. How much less can it ever be useful when the fire has consu
med it and charred it!
Ezekiel 15:3 Can wood be taken from it to make so
mething useful? Or can one make from it a peg on which to hang utensils?
Ezekiel 14:22 Yet, behold, so
me survivors will be left in it—sons and daughters who will be brought out. They will co
me out to you, and when you see their conduct and actions, you will be comforted regarding the disaster I have brought upon Jerusalem—all that I have brought upon it."
Ezekiel 14:21 For this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘How much worse will it be when I send against Jerusalem My four dire judg
ments—sword, famine, wild beasts, and plague—in order to cut off from it both man and beast?"
Ezekiel 14:18 then as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, even if these three
men were in it, they could not deliver their own sons or daughters. They alone would be delivered.
Ezekiel 14:16 then as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, even if these three
men were in it, they could not deliver their own sons or daughters. They alone would be delivered, but the land would be desolate.
Ezekiel 14:14 then even if these three
men—Noah, Daniel, and Job—were in it, their righteousness could deliver only themselves, declares the Lord GOD."
Ezekiel 14:13 “Son of man, if a land sins against
Me by acting unfaithfully, and I stretch out My hand against it to cut off its supply of food, to send famine upon it, and to cut off from it both man and beast,"
Ezekiel 14:11 in order that the house of Israel may no longer stray from
Me and no longer defile themselves with all their transgressions. Then they will be My people and I will be their God, declares the Lord GOD.’”"
Ezekiel 14:10 They will bear their punish
ment—the punish
ment of the inquirer will be the sa
me as that of the prophet—"
Ezekiel 14:9 But if the prophet is enticed to speak a
message, then it was I the LORD who enticed him, and I will stretch out My hand against him and destroy him from among My people Israel.
Ezekiel 14:7 For when any Israelite or any foreigner dwelling in Israel separates himself from
Me, sets up idols in his heart, and puts a wicked stumbling block before his face, and then co
mes to the prophet to inquire of
Me, I the LORD will answer him Myself.
Ezekiel 14:5 so that I may take hold of the hearts of the people of Israel. For because of their idols, they are all estranged from
Me.’"
Ezekiel 14:4 Therefore speak to them and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘When any Israelite sets up idols in his heart and puts a wicked stumbling block before his face, and then co
mes to the prophet, I the LORD will answer him according to his great idolatry,"
Ezekiel 14:3 “Son of man, these
men have set up idols in their hearts and put wicked stumbling blocks before their faces. Should I consult with them in any way?"
Ezekiel 14:1 Then so
me of the elders of Israel ca
me and sat down before
me.
Ezekiel 13:19 You have profaned
Me among My people for handfuls of barley and scraps of bread. By lying to My people who would listen, you have killed those who should not have died and spared those who should not have lived.
Ezekiel 13:18 and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: Woe to the wo
men who sew magic charms on their wrists and make veils for the heads of people of every height, in order to ensnare their souls. Will you ensnare the souls of My people but preserve your own?
Ezekiel 13:11 tell those whitewashing the wall that it will fall. Rain will co
me in torrents, I will send hailstones plunging down, and a windstorm will burst forth.
Ezekiel 13:6 They see false visions and speak lying divinations. They claim, ‘Thus declares the LORD,’ when the LORD did not send them; yet they wait for the fulfill
ment of their
message."
Ezekiel 12:28 Therefore tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘None of My words will be delayed any longer. The
message I speak will be fulfilled, declares the Lord GOD.’”"
Ezekiel 12:26 Furthermore, the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 12:25 because I, the LORD, will speak whatever word I speak, and it will be fulfilled without delay. For in your days, O rebellious house, I will speak a
message and bring it to pass, declares the Lord GOD.’”"
Ezekiel 12:20 The inhabited cities will be laid waste, and the land will beco
me desolate. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”"
Ezekiel 12:8 And in the morning the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 11:25 I told the exiles everything the LORD had shown
me.
Ezekiel 11:24 And the Spirit lifted
me up and carried
me back to Chaldea, to the exiles in the vision given by the Spirit of God. After the vision had gone up from
me,
Ezekiel 11:12 Then you will know that I am the LORD. For you have neither followed My statutes nor practiced My ordinances, but you have confor
med to the ordinances of the nations around you.”"
Ezekiel 11:11 The city will not be a pot for you, nor will you be the
meat within it. I will judge you even to the borders of Israel.
Ezekiel 11:9 I will bring you out of the city and deliver you into the hands of foreigners, and I will execute judg
ments against you.
Ezekiel 11:7 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: The slain you have laid within this city are the
meat, and the city is the pot; but I will remove you from it.
Ezekiel 11:5 And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon
me and told
me to declare that this is what the LORD says: “That is what you are thinking, O house of Israel; and I know the thoughts that arise in your minds."
Ezekiel 11:3 They are saying, ‘Is not the ti
me near to build houses? The city is the cooking pot, and we are the
meat.’"
Ezekiel 11:2 And the LORD said to
me, “Son of man, these are the
men who plot evil and give wicked counsel in this city."
Ezekiel 11:1 Then the Spirit lifted
me up and brought
me to the gate of the house of the LORD that faces east. And there at the entrance of the gate were twenty-five
men. Among them I saw Jaazaniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, who were leaders of the people.
Ezekiel 10:10 As for their appearance, all four had the sa
me form, like a wheel within a wheel.
Ezekiel 10:9 Then I looked and saw four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. And the wheels glea
med like a beryl stone.
Ezekiel 10:7 Then one of the cherubim reached out his hand and took so
me of the fire that was among them. And he put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen, who received it and went out.
Ezekiel 9:10 But as for
Me, I will not look on them with pity, nor will I spare them. I will bring their deeds down upon their own heads.”"
Ezekiel 9:6 Slaughter the old
men, the young
men and maidens, the wo
men and children; but do not go near anyone who has the mark. Now begin at My sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were before the temple."
Ezekiel 9:4 “Go throughout the city of Jerusalem,” said the LORD, “and put a mark on the foreheads of the
men sighing and groaning over all the abominations committed there.”"
Ezekiel 9:2 And I saw six
men coming from the direction of the Upper Gate, which faces north, each with a weapon of slaughter in his hand. With them was another man clothed in linen who had a writing kit at his side. And they ca
me in and stood beside the bronze altar.
Ezekiel 8:17 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “do you see this? Is it not enough for the house of Judah to commit the abominations they are practicing here, that they must also fill the land with violence and continually provoke
Me to anger? Look, they are even putting the branch to their nose!"
Ezekiel 8:16 So He brought
me to the inner court of the house of the LORD, and there at the entrance to the temple of the LORD, between the portico and the altar, were about twenty-five
men with their backs to the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east; and they were bowing to the east in worship of the sun.
Ezekiel 8:15 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “do you see this? Yet you will see even greater abominations than these.”"
Ezekiel 8:14 Then He brought
me to the entrance of the north gate of the house of the LORD, and I saw wo
men sitting there, weeping for Tammuz.
Ezekiel 8:13 Again, He told
me, “You will see them committing even greater abominations.”"
Ezekiel 8:12 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “do you see what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the darkness, each at the shrine of his own idol? For they are saying, ‘The LORD does not see us; the LORD has forsaken the land.’”"
Ezekiel 8:9 Then He said to
me, “Go in and see the wicked abominations they are committing here.”"
Ezekiel 8:8 “Son of man,” He told
me, “dig through the wall.” So I dug through the wall and discovered a doorway."
Ezekiel 8:7 Then He brought
me to the entrance to the court, and I looked and saw a hole in the wall.
Ezekiel 8:6 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “do you see what they are doing—the great abominations that the house of Israel is committing—to drive
Me far from My sanctuary? Yet you will see even greater abominations.”"
Ezekiel 8:5 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “now lift up your eyes to the north.” So I lifted up my eyes to the north, and in the entrance north of the Altar Gate I saw this idol of jealousy."
Ezekiel 8:3 He stretched out what looked like a hand and took
me by the hair of my head. Then the Spirit lifted
me up between earth and heaven and carried
me in visions of God to Jerusalem, to the entrance of the north gate of the inner court, where the idol that provokes jealousy was seated.
Ezekiel 8:1 In the sixth year, on the fifth day of the sixth month, I was sitting in my house, and the elders of Judah were sitting before
me; and there the hand of the Lord GOD fell upon
me.
Ezekiel 7:26 Disaster upon disaster will co
me, and rumor after rumor. Then they will seek a vision from a prophet, but instruction from the priests will perish, as will counsel from the elders.
Ezekiel 7:23 Forge the chain, for the land is full of cri
mes of bloodshed, and the city is full of violence.
Ezekiel 7:22 I will turn My face away from them, and they will defile My treasured place. Violent
men will enter it, and they will defile it.
Ezekiel 7:20 His beautiful orna
ments they transfor
med into pride and used them to fashion their vile images and detestable idols. Therefore I will make these into so
mething unclean for them.
Ezekiel 7:19 They will throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will seem unclean. Their silver and gold cannot save them in the day of the wrath of the LORD. They cannot satisfy their appetites or fill their stomachs with wealth, for it beca
me the stumbling block that brought their iniquity.
Ezekiel 7:18 They will put on sackcloth, and terror will overwhelm them. Sha
me will cover all their faces, and all their heads will be shaved.
Ezekiel 7:12 The ti
me has co
me; the day has arrived. Let the buyer not rejoice and the seller not mourn, for wrath is upon the whole multitude.
Ezekiel 7:10 Behold, the day is here! It has co
me! Doom has gone out, the rod has budded, arrogance has bloo
med.
Ezekiel 7:7 Doom has co
me to you, O inhabitants of the land. The ti
me has co
me; the day is near; there is panic on the mountains instead of shouts of joy.
Ezekiel 7:6 The end has co
me! The end has co
me! It has roused itself against you. Behold, it has co
me!
Ezekiel 7:2 “O son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says to the land of Israel: ‘The end! The end has co
me upon the four corners of the land."
Ezekiel 7:1 And the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 6:9 Then in the nations to which they have been carried captive, your survivors will re
member
Me—how I have been grieved by their adulterous hearts that turned away from
Me, and by their eyes that lusted after idols. So they will loathe themselves for the evil they have done and for all their abominations."
Ezekiel 6:8 Yet I will leave a remnant, for so
me of you will escape the sword when you are scattered among the nations and throughout the lands.
Ezekiel 6:1 And the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 5:15 So you will be a reproach and a taunt, a warning and a horror to the nations around you, when I execute judg
ments against you in anger, wrath, and raging fury. I, the LORD, have spoken.
Ezekiel 5:12 A third of your people will die by plague or be consu
med by famine within you, a third will fall by the sword outside your walls, and a third I will scatter to every wind and unleash a sword behind them.
Ezekiel 5:10 As a result, fathers among you will eat their sons, and sons will eat their fathers. I will execute judg
ments against you and scatter all your remnant to every wind.’"
Ezekiel 5:8 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I Myself am against you, Jerusalem, and I will execute judg
ments among you in the sight of the nations."
Ezekiel 5:7 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You have been more insubordinate than the nations around you; you have not walked in My statutes or kept My ordinances, nor have you even confor
med to the ordinances of the nations around you.’"
Ezekiel 5:3 But you are to take a few strands of hair and secure them in the folds of your gar
ment.
Ezekiel 4:16 Then He told
me, “Son of man, I am going to cut off the supply of food in Jerusalem. They will anxiously eat bread rationed by weight, and in despair they will drink water by
measure."
Ezekiel 4:15 “Look,” He replied, “I will let you use cow dung instead of human excre
ment, and you may bake your bread over that.”"
Ezekiel 4:14 “Ah, Lord GOD,” I said, “I have never defiled myself. From my youth until now I have not eaten anything found dead or mauled by wild beasts. No unclean
meat has ever entered my mouth.”"
Ezekiel 4:12 And you shall eat the food as you would a barley cake, after you bake it over dried human excre
ment in the sight of the people.”"
Ezekiel 4:11 You are also to
measure out a sixth of a hin of water to drink, and you are to drink it at set ti
mes.
Ezekiel 4:10 You are to weigh out twenty shekels of food to eat each day, and you are to eat it at set ti
mes.
Ezekiel 3:24 Then the Spirit entered
me and set
me on my feet. He spoke with
me and said, “Go, shut yourself inside your house."
Ezekiel 3:22 And there the hand of the LORD was upon
me, and He said to
me, “Get up, go out to the plain, and there I will speak with you.”"
Ezekiel 3:20 Now if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I put a stumbling block before him, he will die. If you did not warn him, he will die in his sin, and the righteous acts he did will not be re
membered. And I will hold you responsible for his blood.
Ezekiel 3:17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from My mouth, give them a warning from
Me."
Ezekiel 3:16 At the end of seven days the word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying,
Ezekiel 3:15 I ca
me to the exiles at Tel-abib who dwelt by the River Kebar. And for seven days I sat where they sat and remained there among them, overwhel
med.
Ezekiel 3:14 So the Spirit lifted
me up and took
me away, and I went in bitterness and in the anger of my spirit, with the strong hand of the LORD upon
me.
Ezekiel 3:12 Then the Spirit lifted
me up, and I heard a great rumbling sound behind
me: ‘Blessed be the glory of the LORD in His dwelling place!’"
Ezekiel 3:7 But the house of Israel will be unwilling to listen to you, since they are unwilling to listen to
Me. For the whole house of Israel is hard-headed and hard-hearted.
Ezekiel 3:4 Then He said to
me, “Son of man, go now to the house of Israel and speak My words to them."
Ezekiel 3:3 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “eat and fill your stomach with this scroll I am giving you.” So I ate, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth."
Ezekiel 3:2 So I opened my mouth, and He fed
me the scroll.
Ezekiel 3:1 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “eat what you find here. Eat this scroll, then go and speak to the house of Israel.”"
Ezekiel 2:10 which He unrolled before
me. And written on the front and back of it were words of la
mentation, mourning, and woe.
Ezekiel 2:9 Then I looked and saw a hand reaching out to
me, and in it was a scroll,
Ezekiel 2:3 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “I am sending you to the Israelites, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against
Me. To this very day they and their fathers have rebelled against
Me."
Ezekiel 2:2 And as He spoke to
me, the Spirit entered
me and set
me on my feet, and I heard Him speaking to
me.
Ezekiel 2:1 “Son of man,” He said to
me, “stand up on your feet and I will speak to you.”"
Ezekiel 1:27 From what see
med to be His waist up, I saw a gleam like amber, with what looked like fire within it all around. And from what see
med to be His waist down, I saw what looked like fire; and brilliant light surrounded Him.
Ezekiel 1:25 And there ca
me a voice from above the expanse over their heads as they stood still with their wings lowered.
Ezekiel 1:22 Spread out above the heads of the living creatures was the likeness of an aweso
me expanse, gleaming like crystal.
Ezekiel 1:18 Their rims were high and aweso
me, and all four rims were full of eyes all around.
Ezekiel 1:16 The workmanship of the wheels looked like the gleam of beryl, and all four had the sa
me likeness. Their workmanship looked like a wheel within a wheel.
Ezekiel 1:3 the word of the LORD ca
me directly to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the River Kebar. And there the LORD’s hand was upon him."
Lamentations 5:22 unless You have utterly rejected us and remain angry with us beyond

Lamentations 4:15 “Go away! Unclean!”
men shouted at them. “Away, away! Do not touch us!” So they fled and wandered. Among the nations it was said, “They can stay here no longer.”"
Lamentations 4:14 They wandered blind in the streets, defiled by this blood, so that no one dared to touch their gar

Lamentations 4:11 The LORD has exhausted His wrath; He has poured out His fierce anger; He has kindled a fire in Zion, and it has consu

Lamentations 4:10 The hands of compassionate wo
men have cooked their own children, who beca
me their food in the destruction of the daughter of my people.
Lamentations 4:8 But now their appearance is blacker than soot; they are not recognized in the streets. Their skin has shriveled on their bones; it has beco
me as dry as a stick.
Lamentations 4:6 The punish

Lamentations 4:3 Even jackals offer their breasts to nurse their young, but the daughter of my people has beco
me cruel, like an ostrich in the wilderness.
Lamentations 4:2 How the precious sons of Zion, once worth their weight in pure gold, are now estee

me dull! The gems of the temple lie scattered on every street corner.

megranates all around. The second pillar, with its po
megranates, was similar.

me up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan to the watered pasture. For in an instant I will chase Babylon from her land. Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this? For who is like
Me, and who can challenge
Me? What shepherd can stand against
Me?”"
Jeremiah 50:42 They grasp the bow and spear; they are cruel and
merciless. Their voice roars like the sea, and they ride upon horses, lined up like
men in formation against you, O Daughter of Babylon.
Jeremiah 50:37 A sword is against her horses and chariots and against all the foreigners in her midst, and they will beco
me like wo
men. A sword is against her treasuries, and they will be plundered.
Jeremiah 50:36 A sword is against her false prophets, and they will beco
me fools. A sword is against her warriors, and they will be filled with terror.
Jeremiah 50:35 A sword is against the Chaldeans, declares the LORD, against those who live in Babylon, and against her officials and wise
men.
Jeremiah 50:34 Their Redee
mer is strong; the LORD of Hosts is His na
me. He will fervently plead their case so that He may bring rest to the earth, but turmoil to those who live in Babylon.
Jeremiah 50:32 The arrogant one will stumble and fall with no one to pick him up. And I will kindle a fire in his cities to consu
me all those around him.”"
Jeremiah 50:31 “Behold, I am against you, O arrogant one,” declares the Lord GOD of Hosts, “for your day has co
me, the ti
me when I will punish you."
Jeremiah 50:30 Therefore, her young
men will fall in the streets, and all her warriors will be silenced in that day,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 50:27 Kill all her young bulls; let them go down to the slaughter. Woe to them, for their day has co
me—the ti
me of their punish
ment."
Jeremiah 50:26 Co
me against her from the farthest border. Break open her granaries; pile her up like mounds of grain. Devote her to destruction; leave her no survivors.
Jeremiah 50:23 How the ham
mer of the whole earth lies broken and shattered! What a horror Babylon has beco
me among the nations!
Jeremiah 50:21 Go up against the land of
Merathaim, and against the residents of Pekod. Kill them and devote them to destruction. Do all that I have commanded you,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 50:20 In those days and at that ti
me, declares the LORD, a search will be made for Israel’s guilt, but there will be none, and for Judah’s sins, but they will not be found; for I will forgive the remnant I preserve."
Jeremiah 50:19 I will return Israel to his pasture, and he will graze on Car
mel and Bashan; his soul will be satisfied on the hills of Ephraim and Gilead.
Jeremiah 50:16 Cut off the sower from Babylon, and the one who wields the sickle at harvest ti
me. In the face of the oppressor’s sword, each will turn to his own people, each will flee to his own land."
Jeremiah 50:15 Raise a war cry against her on every side! She has thrown up her hands in surrender; her towers have fallen; her walls are torn down. Since this is the vengeance of the LORD, take out your vengeance upon her; as she has done, do the sa
me to her.
Jeremiah 50:13 Because of the wrath of the LORD, she will not be inhabited; she will beco
me completely desolate. All who pass through Babylon will be horrified and will hiss at all her wounds.
Jeremiah 50:12 your mother will be greatly asha
med; she who bore you will be disgraced. Behold, she will be the least of the nations, a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
Jeremiah 50:5 They will ask the way to Zion and turn their faces toward it. They will co
me and join themselves to the LORD in an everlasting covenant that will never be forgotten.
Jeremiah 50:4 “In those days and at that ti
me, declares the LORD, the children of Israel and the children of Judah will co
me together, weeping as they co
me, and will seek the LORD their God."
Jeremiah 50:3 For a nation from the north will co
me against her; it will make her land a desolation. No one will live in it; both man and beast will flee.”"
Jeremiah 50:2 “Announce and declare to the nations; lift up a banner and proclaim it; hold nothing back when you say, ‘Babylon is captured; Bel is put to sha
me; Marduk is shattered, her images are disgraced, her idols are broken in pieces.’"
Jeremiah 49:34 This is the word of the LORD that ca
me to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah.
Jeremiah 49:33 “Hazor will beco
me a haunt for jackals, a desolation forever. No one will dwell there; no man will abide there.”"
Jeremiah 49:32 Their ca
mels will beco
me plunder, and their large herds will be spoil. I will scatter to the wind in every direction those who shave their temples; I will bring calamity on them from all sides,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 49:29 They will take their tents and flocks, their tent curtains and all their goods. They will take their ca
mels for themselves. They will shout to them: ‘Terror is on every side!’"
Jeremiah 49:27 “I will set fire to the walls of Damascus; it will consu
me the fortresses of Ben-hadad.”"
Jeremiah 49:26 For her young
men will fall in the streets, and all her warriors will be silenced in that day,” declares the LORD of Hosts."
Jeremiah 49:25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the town that brings
Me joy?
Jeremiah 49:24 Damascus has beco
me feeble; she has turned to flee. Panic has gripped her; anguish and pain have seized her like a woman in labor.
Jeremiah 49:23 Concerning Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad are put to sha
me, for they have heard a bad report; they are agitated like the sea; their anxiety cannot be cal
med."
Jeremiah 49:22 Look! An eagle will soar and swoop down, spreading its wings over Bozrah. In that day the hearts of Edom’s mighty
men will be like the heart of a woman in labor."
Jeremiah 49:19 Behold, one will co
me up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan to the watered pasture. For in an instant I will chase Edom from her land. Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this? For who is like
Me, and who can challenge
Me? What shepherd can stand against
Me?”"
Jeremiah 49:17 “Edom will beco
me an object of horror. All who pass by will be appalled and will scoff at all her wounds."
Jeremiah 49:15 “For behold, I will make you small among nations, despised among
men."
Jeremiah 49:14 I have heard a
message from the LORD; an envoy has been sent to the nations: “Assemble yourselves to march against her! Rise up for battle!”"
Jeremiah 49:13 For by Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that Bozrah will beco
me a desolation, a disgrace, a ruin, and a curse, and all her cities will be in ruins forever.”"
Jeremiah 49:11 Abandon your orphans; I will preserve their lives. Let your widows trust in
Me.”"
Jeremiah 49:9 If grape gatherers ca
me to you, would they not leave so
me gleanings? Were thieves to co
me in the night, would they not steal only what they wanted?
Jeremiah 49:8 Turn and run! Lie low, O dwellers of Dedan, for I will bring disaster on Esau at the ti
me I punish him.
Jeremiah 49:4 Why do you boast of your valleys—your valleys so fruitful, O faithless daughter? You trust in your riches and say, ‘Who can co
me against
me?’"
Jeremiah 49:2 Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will sound the battle cry against Rabbah of the Ammonites. It will beco
me a heap of ruins, and its villages will be burned. Then Israel will drive out their dispossessors, says the LORD.
Jeremiah 48:47 Yet in the latter days I will restore Moab from captivity,” declares the LORD. Here ends the judg
ment on Moab."
Jeremiah 48:45 “Those who flee will stand helpless in Heshbon’s shadow, because fire has gone forth from Heshbon and a fla
me from within Sihon. It devours the foreheads of Moab and the skulls of the sons of tumult."
Jeremiah 48:44 “Whoever flees the panic will fall into the pit, and whoever climbs from the pit will be caught in the snare. For I will bring upon Moab the year of their punish
ment,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 48:39 “How shattered it is! How they wail! How Moab has turned his back in sha
me! Moab has beco
me an object of ridicule and horror to all those around him.”"
Jeremiah 48:36 Therefore My heart la
ments like a flute for Moab; it la
ments like a flute for the
men of Kir-heres, because the wealth they acquired has perished.
Jeremiah 48:32 I will weep for you, O vine of Sibmah, more than I weep for Jazer. Your tendrils have extended to the sea; they reach even to Jazer. The destroyer has descended on your sum
mer fruit and grape harvest.
Jeremiah 48:31 Therefore I will wail for Moab; I will cry out for all of Moab; I will moan for the
men of Kir-heres.
Jeremiah 48:26 “Make him drunk, because he has magnified himself against the LORD; so Moab will wallow in his own vomit, and he will also beco
me a laughingstock."
Jeremiah 48:21 Judg
ment has co
me upon the high plain—upon Holon, Jahzah, and
Mephaath,"
Jeremiah 48:20 Moab is put to sha
me, for it has been shattered. Wail and cry out! Declare by the Arnon that Moab is destroyed.
Jeremiah 48:18 Co
me down from your glory; sit on parched ground, O daughter dwelling in Dibon, for the destroyer of Moab has co
me against you; he has destroyed your fortresses.
Jeremiah 48:17 Mourn for him, all you who surround him, everyone who knows his na
me; tell how the mighty scepter is shattered—the glorious staff!"
Jeremiah 48:15 Moab has been destroyed and its towns have been invaded; the best of its young
men have gone down in the slaughter, declares the King, whose na
me is the LORD of Hosts.
Jeremiah 48:14 How can you say, ‘We are warriors, mighty
men ready for battle’?"
Jeremiah 48:13 Then Moab will be asha
med of Chemosh, just as the house of Israel was asha
med when they trusted in Bethel.
Jeremiah 48:11 Moab has been at ease from youth, settled like wine on its dregs; he has not been poured from vessel to vessel or gone into exile. So his flavor has remained the sa
me, and his aroma is unchanged.
Jeremiah 48:9 Put salt on Moab, for she will be laid waste; her cities will beco
me desolate, with no one to dwell in them.
Jeremiah 48:6 ‘Flee! Run for your lives! Beco
me like a juniper in the desert.’"
Jeremiah 48:2 There is no longer praise for Moab; in Heshbon they devise evil against her: ‘Co
me, let us cut her off from nationhood.’ You too, O people of Mad
men, will be silenced; the sword will pursue you."
Jeremiah 47:4 For the day has co
me to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every remaining ally. Indeed, the LORD is about to destroy the Philistines, the remnant from the coasts of Caphtor.
Jeremiah 47:1 This is the word of the LORD that ca
me to Jeremiah the prophet about the Philistines before Pharaoh struck down Gaza.
Jeremiah 46:28 And you, My servant Jacob, do not be afraid, declares the LORD, for I am with you. Though I will completely destroy all the nations to which I have banished you, I will not completely destroy you. Yet I will discipline you justly, and will by no
means leave you unpunished.”"
Jeremiah 46:24 The Daughter of Egypt will be put to sha
me; she will be delivered into the hands of the people of the north.”"
Jeremiah 46:23 They will chop down her forest, declares the LORD, dense though it may be, for they are more nu
merous than locusts; they cannot be counted.
Jeremiah 46:22 Egypt will hiss like a fleeing serpent, for the enemy will advance in force; with axes they will co
me against her like woods
men cutting down trees.
Jeremiah 46:21 Even the
mercenaries among her are like fattened calves. They too will turn back; together they will flee, they will not stand their ground, for the day of calamity is coming upon them—the ti
me of their punish
ment."
Jeremiah 46:19 Pack your bags for exile, O daughter dwelling in Egypt! For
Memphis will be laid waste, destroyed and uninhabited.
Jeremiah 46:18 As surely as I live, declares the King, whose na
me is the LORD of Hosts, there will co
me one who is like Tabor among the mountains and like Car
mel by the sea.
Jeremiah 46:17 There they will cry out: ‘Pharaoh king of Egypt was all noise; he has let the appointed ti
me pass him by.’"
Jeremiah 46:14 “Announce it in Egypt, and proclaim it in Migdol; proclaim it in
Memphis and Tahpanhes: ‘Take your positions and prepare yourself, for the sword devours those around you.’"
Jeremiah 46:12 The nations have heard of your sha
me, and your outcry fills the earth, because warrior stumbles over warrior and both of them have fallen together.”"
Jeremiah 46:11 Go up to Gilead for balm, O Virgin Daughter of Egypt! In vain you try many re
medies, but for you there is no healing.
Jeremiah 46:9 Advance, O horses! Race furiously, O chariots! Let the warriors co
me forth—Cush and Put carrying their shields,
men of Lydia drawing the bow."
Jeremiah 46:4 Harness the horses; mount the steeds; take your positions with hel
mets on! Polish your spears; put on armor!
Jeremiah 46:1 This is the word of the LORD about the nations—the word that ca
me to Jeremiah the prophet"
Jeremiah 45:3 You have said, ‘Woe is
me because the LORD has added sorrow to my pain! I am worn out with groaning and have found no rest.’”"
Jeremiah 44:27 I am watching over them for harm and not for good, and every man of Judah who is in the land of Egypt will
meet his end by sword or famine, until they are finished off.
Jeremiah 44:26 Nevertheless, hear the word of the LORD, all you people of Judah living in Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by My great na
me, says the LORD, that never again will any man of Judah living in the land of Egypt invoke My na
me or say, ‘As surely as the Lord GOD lives.’"
Jeremiah 44:24 Then Jeremiah said to all the people, including all the wo
men, “Hear the word of the LORD, all those of Judah who are in the land of Egypt."
Jeremiah 44:22 So the LORD could no longer endure the evil deeds and detestable acts you committed, and your land beca
me a desolation, a horror, and an object of cursing, without inhabitant, as it is this day.
Jeremiah 44:21 “As for the incense you burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem—you, your fathers, your kings, your officials, and the people of the land—did the LORD not re
member and bring this to mind?"
Jeremiah 44:20 Then Jeremiah said to all the people, both
men and wo
men, who were answering him,
Jeremiah 44:19 “Moreover,” said the wo
men, “when we burned incense to the Queen of Heaven and poured out drink offerings to her, was it without our husbands’ knowledge that we made sacrificial cakes in her image and poured out drink offerings to her?”"
Jeremiah 44:18 But from the ti
me we stopped burning incense to the Queen of Heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have lacked everything and have been perishing by sword and famine.”"
Jeremiah 44:17 Instead, we will do everything we vowed to do: We will burn incense to the Queen of Heaven and offer drink offerings to her, just as we, our fathers, our kings, and our officials did in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. At that ti
me we had plenty of food and good things, and we saw no disaster.
Jeremiah 44:16 “As for the word you have spoken to us in the na
me of the LORD, we will not listen to you!"
Jeremiah 44:15 Then all the
men who knew that their wives were burning incense to other gods, and all the wo
men standing by—a great assembly—along with all the people living in the land of Egypt and in Pathros, said to Jeremiah,"
Jeremiah 44:12 And I will take away the remnant of Judah who have resolved to go to the land of Egypt to reside there; they will
meet their end. They will all fall by the sword or be consu
med by famine. From the least to the greatest, they will die by sword or famine; and they will beco
me an object of cursing and horror, of vilification and reproach.
Jeremiah 44:8 Why are you provoking
Me to anger by the work of your hands by burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to reside? As a result, you will be cut off and will beco
me an object of cursing and reproach among all the nations of the earth.
Jeremiah 44:6 Therefore My wrath and anger poured out and burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, so that they have beco
me the desolate ruin they are today.
Jeremiah 44:3 because of the evil they have done. They provoked
Me to anger by continuing to burn incense and to serve other gods that neither they nor you nor your fathers ever knew.
Jeremiah 44:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews living in the land of Egypt—in Migdol, Tahpanhes, and
Memphis—and in the land of Pathros:"
Jeremiah 43:12 I will kindle a fire in the temples of the gods of Egypt, and Nebuchadnezzar will burn those temples and take their gods as captives. So he will wrap himself with the land of Egypt as a shepherd wraps himself in his gar
ment, and he will depart from there unscathed.
Jeremiah 43:11 He will co
me and strike down the land of Egypt, bringing death to those destined for death, captivity to those destined for captivity, and the sword to those destined for the sword.
Jeremiah 43:9 “In the sight of the Jews, pick up so
me large stones and bury them in the clay of the brick pave
ment at the entrance to Pharaoh’s palace at Tahpanhes."
Jeremiah 43:8 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Jeremiah at Tahpanhes:
Jeremiah 43:6 the
men, the wo
men, the children, the king’s daughters, and everyone whom Nebuzaradan captain of the guard had allowed to remain with Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, as well as Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch son of Neriah."
Jeremiah 43:2 Azariah son of Hoshaiah, Johanan son of Kareah, and all the arrogant
men said to Jeremiah, “You are lying! The LORD our God has not sent you to say, ‘You must not go to Egypt to reside there.’"
Jeremiah 42:21 For I have told you today, but you have not obeyed the voice of the LORD your God in all He has sent
me to tell you.
Jeremiah 42:20 For you have deceived yourselves by sending
me to the LORD your God, saying, ‘Pray to the LORD our God on our behalf, and as for all that the LORD our God says, tell it to us and we will do it.’"
Jeremiah 42:18 For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Just as My anger and wrath were poured out on the residents of Jerusalem, so will My wrath be poured out on you if you go to Egypt. You will beco
me an object of cursing and horror, of vilification and disgrace, and you will never see this place again.’"
Jeremiah 42:9 Jeremiah told them, “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to whom you sent
me to present your petition:"
Jeremiah 42:7 After ten days the word of the LORD ca
me to Jeremiah,
Jeremiah 42:2 Jeremiah the prophet and said, “May our petition co
me before you; pray to the LORD your God on behalf of this entire remnant. For few of us remain of the many, as you can see with your own eyes."
Jeremiah 41:16 Then Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies with him took the whole remnant of the people from Mizpah whom he had recovered from Ishmael son of Nethaniah after Ishmael had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam: the soldiers, wo
men, children, and court officials he had brought back from Gibeon.
Jeremiah 41:15 But Ishmael son of Nethaniah and eight of his
men escaped from Johanan and went to the Ammonites.
Jeremiah 41:12 they took all their
men and went to fight Ishmael son of Nethaniah. And they found him near the great pool in Gibeon.
Jeremiah 41:11 When Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies with him heard of all the cri
mes that Ishmael son of Nethaniah had committed,
Jeremiah 41:9 Now the cistern into which Ishmael had thrown all the bodies of the
men he had struck down along with Gedaliah was a large one that King Asa had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel. Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled it with the slain.
Jeremiah 41:8 But ten of the
men among them said to Ishmael, “Do not kill us, for we have hidden treasure in the field—wheat, barley, oil, and honey!” So he refrained from killing them with the others."
Jeremiah 41:7 And when they ca
me into the city, Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the
men with him slaughtered them and threw them into a cistern.
Jeremiah 41:6 And Ishmael son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to
meet them, weeping as he went. When Ishmael encountered the
men, he said, “Co
me to Gedaliah son of Ahikam.”"
Jeremiah 41:5 eighty
men who had shaved off their beards, torn their gar
ments, and cut themselves ca
me from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria, carrying grain offerings and frankincense for the house of the LORD.
Jeremiah 41:2 Then Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the ten
men who were with him got up and struck down Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, with the sword, killing the one whom the king of Babylon had appointed to govern the land.
Jeremiah 41:1 In the seventh month, Ishmael son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, who was a
member of the royal family and one of the king’s chief officers, ca
me with ten
men to Gedaliah son of Ahikam at Mizpah, and they ate a
meal together there."
Jeremiah 40:15 Then Johanan son of Kareah spoke privately to Gedaliah at Mizpah. “Let
me go and kill Ishmael son of Nethaniah,” he said. “No one will know it. Why should he take your life and scatter all the people of Judah who have gathered to you, so that the remnant of Judah would perish?”"
Jeremiah 40:13 Meanwhile, Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies in the field ca
me to Gedaliah at Mizpah
Jeremiah 40:12 they all returned from all the places to which they had been banished and ca
me to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah at Mizpah. And they gathered an abundance of wine grapes and sum
mer fruit.
Jeremiah 40:10 As for
me, I will stay in Mizpah to represent you before the Chaldeans who co
me to us. As for you, gather wine grapes, sum
mer fruit, and oil, place them in your storage jars, and live in the cities you have taken.”"
Jeremiah 40:9 Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, swore an oath to them and their
men, assuring them, “Do not be afraid to serve the Chaldeans. Live in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and it will go well with you."
Jeremiah 40:8 they ca
me to Gedaliah at Mizpah—Ishmael son of Nethaniah, Johanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, Seraiah son of Tanhu
meth, the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah son of the Maacathite—they and their
men."
Jeremiah 40:7 When all the commanders and
men of the armies in the field heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam over the land and that he had put him in charge of the
men, wo
men, and children who were the poorest of the land and had not been exiled to Babylon,
Jeremiah 40:4 But now, behold, I am freeing you today from the chains that were on your wrists. If it pleases you to co
me with
me to Babylon, then co
me, and I will take care of you. But if it seems wrong to you to co
me with
me to Babylon, go no farther. Look, the whole land is before you. Wherever it seems good and right to you, go there.”"
Jeremiah 40:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD after Nebuzaradan captain of the guard had released him at Ramah, having found him bound in chains among all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah who were being exiled to Babylon.
Jeremiah 39:18 For I will surely rescue you so that you do not fall by the sword. Because you have trusted in
Me, you will escape with your life like a spoil of war, declares the LORD.’”"
Jeremiah 39:17 But I will deliver you on that day, declares the LORD, and you will not be delivered into the hands of the
men whom you fear.
Jeremiah 39:16 “Go and tell Ebed-
melech the Cushite that this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I am about to fulfill My words against this city for harm and not for good, and on that day they will be fulfilled before your eyes."
Jeremiah 39:15 And while Jeremiah had been confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD had co
me to him:
Jeremiah 39:14 had Jeremiah brought from the courtyard of the guard, and they turned him over to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, to take him ho
me. So Jeremiah remained among his own people.
Jeremiah 39:12 “Take him, look after him, and do not let any harm co
me to him; do for him whatever he says.”"
Jeremiah 39:10 But Nebuzaradan left behind in the land of Judah so
me of the poor people who had no property, and at that ti
me he gave them vineyards and fields.
Jeremiah 39:5 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. They seized him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced judg
ment on him.
Jeremiah 38:27 When all the officials ca
me to Jeremiah and questioned him, he relayed to them the exact words the king had commanded him to say. So they said no more to him, for no one had overheard the conversation.
Jeremiah 38:26 then tell them, ‘I was presenting to the king my petition that he not return
me to the house of Jonathan to die there.’”"
Jeremiah 38:25 If the officials hear that I have spoken with you, and they co
me and demand of you, ‘Tell us what you said to the king and what he said to you; do not hide it from us, or we will kill you,’"
Jeremiah 38:22 All the wo
men who remain in the palace of the king of Judah will be brought out to the officials of the king of Babylon, and those wo
men will say: ‘They misled you and overca
me you—those trusted friends of yours. Your feet sank into the mire, and they deserted you.’"
Jeremiah 38:21 But if you refuse to surrender, this is the word that the LORD has shown
me:
Jeremiah 38:19 But King Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, “I am afraid of the Jews who have deserted to the Chaldeans, for the Chaldeans may deliver
me into their hands to abuse
me.”"
Jeremiah 38:16 But King Zedekiah swore secretly to Jeremiah, “As surely as the LORD lives, who has given us this life, I will not kill you, nor will I deliver you into the hands of these
men who are seeking your life.”"
Jeremiah 38:15 “If I tell you,” Jeremiah replied, “you will surely put
me to death. And even if I give you advice, you will not listen to
me.”"
Jeremiah 38:14 Then King Zedekiah sent for Jeremiah the prophet and received him at the third entrance to the house of the LORD. “I am going to ask you so
mething,” said the king to Jeremiah. “Do not hide anything from
me.”"
Jeremiah 38:12 Ebed-
melech the Cushite cried out to Jeremiah, “Put these worn-out rags and clothes under your arms to pad the ropes.” Jeremiah did so,"
Jeremiah 38:11 Then Ebed-
melech took the
men with him and went to the king’s palace, to a place below the storehouse. From there he took old rags and worn-out clothes and lowered them with ropes to Jeremiah in the cistern."
Jeremiah 38:10 So the king commanded Ebed-
melech the Cushite, “Take thirty
men from here with you and pull Jeremiah the prophet out of the cistern before he dies.”"
Jeremiah 38:9 “My lord the king, these
men have acted wickedly in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet. They have dropped him into the cistern, where he will starve to death, for there is no more bread in the city.”"
Jeremiah 38:8 Ebed-
melech went out from the king’s palace and said to the king,"
Jeremiah 38:7 Now Ebed-
melech the Cushite, a court official in the royal palace, heard that Jeremiah had been put into the cistern. While the king was sitting at the Gate of Benjamin,
Jeremiah 37:20 But now please listen, O my lord the king. May my petition co
me before you. Do not send
me back to the house of Jonathan the scribe, or I will die there.”"
Jeremiah 37:19 Where are your prophets who prophesied to you, claiming, ‘The king of Babylon will not co
me against you or this land’?"
Jeremiah 37:18 Then Jeremiah asked King Zedekiah, “How have I sinned against you or your servants or these people, that you have put
me in prison?"
Jeremiah 37:16 So Jeremiah went into a cell in the dungeon and remained there a long ti
me.
Jeremiah 37:13 But when he reached the Gate of Benjamin, the captain of the guard, whose na
me was Irijah son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah, seized him and said, “You are deserting to the Chaldeans!”"
Jeremiah 37:10 Indeed, if you were to strike down the entire army of the Chaldeans that is fighting against you, and only wounded
men remained in their tents, they would still get up and burn this city down.”"
Jeremiah 37:7 “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says that you are to tell the king of Judah, who sent you to
Me: Behold, Pharaoh’s army, which has marched out to help you, will go back to its own land of Egypt."
Jeremiah 37:6 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Jeremiah the prophet:
Jeremiah 37:4 Now Jeremiah was free to co
me and go among the people, for they had not yet put him in prison.
Jeremiah 37:3 Yet King Zedekiah sent Jehucal son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah the priest, the son of Maaseiah, to Jeremiah the prophet with the
message, “Please pray to the LORD our God for us!”"
Jeremiah 36:31 I will punish him and his descendants and servants for their iniquity. I will bring on them, on the residents of Jerusalem, and on the
men of Judah, all the calamity about which I warned them but they did not listen.”"
Jeremiah 36:29 You are to proclaim concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah that this is what the LORD says: You have burned the scroll and said, ‘Why have you written on it that the king of Babylon would surely co
me and destroy this land and deprive it of man and beast?’"
Jeremiah 36:27 After the king had burned the scroll containing the words that Baruch had written at Jeremiah’s dictation, the word of the LORD ca
me to Jeremiah:"
Jeremiah 36:26 Instead, the king commanded Jerah
meel, a son of the king, as well as Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel, to seize Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. But the LORD had hidden them.
Jeremiah 36:24 Yet in hearing all these words, the king and his servants did not beco
me frightened or tear their gar
ments.
Jeremiah 36:23 And as soon as Jehudi had read three or four columns, Jehoiakim would cut them off with a scribe’s knife and throw them into the firepot, until the entire scroll had been consu
med by the fire."
Jeremiah 36:18 “It was at his dictation,” Baruch replied. “He recited all these words to
me and I wrote them in ink on the scroll.”"
Jeremiah 36:14 Then all the officials sent word to Baruch through Jehudi son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, saying, “Bring the scroll that you read in the hearing of the people, and co
me here.” So Baruch son of Neriah took the scroll and went to them."
Jeremiah 36:9 Now in the ninth month of the fifth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, a fast before the LORD was proclai
med to all the people of Jerusalem and all who had co
me there from the cities of Judah.
Jeremiah 36:1 In the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, this word ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD:
Jeremiah 35:19 this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Jonadab son of Rechab will never fail to have a man to stand before
Me.’”"
Jeremiah 35:18 Then Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites: “This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Because you have obeyed the command of your forefather Jonadab and have kept all his command
ments and have done all that he charged you to do,"
Jeremiah 35:16 Yes, the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab carried out the command their forefather gave them, but these people have not listened to
Me.
Jeremiah 35:15 Again and again I have sent you all My servants the prophets, proclaiming: ‘Turn now, each of you, from your wicked ways, and correct your actions. Do not go after other gods to serve them. Live in the land that I have given to you and your fathers.’ But you have not inclined your ear or listened to
Me."
Jeremiah 35:14 The words of Jonadab son of Rechab have been carried out. He commanded his sons not to drink wine, and they have not drunk it to this very day because they have obeyed the command of their forefather. But I have spoken to you again and again, and you have not obeyed
Me!
Jeremiah 35:13 “This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Go and tell the
men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem: ‘Will you not accept discipline and obey My words?’ declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 35:11 So when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched into the land, we said: ‘Co
me, let us go into Jerusalem to escape the armies of the Chaldeans and the Ara
means.’ So we have remained in Jerusalem.”"
Jeremiah 35:7 Nor are you ever to build a house or sow seed or plant a vineyard. Those things are not for you. Instead, you must live in tents all your lives, so that you may live a long ti
me in the land where you wander.’"
Jeremiah 35:5 Then I set pitchers full of wine and so
me cups before the
men of the house of the Rechabites, and I said to them, “Drink so
me wine.”"
Jeremiah 35:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
Jeremiah 34:20 I will deliver into the hands of their enemies who seek their lives. Their corpses will beco
me food for the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth.
Jeremiah 34:18 And those who have transgressed My covenant and have not fulfilled the terms of the covenant they made before
Me, I will treat like the calf they cut in two in order to pass between its pieces.
Jeremiah 34:17 Therefore this is what the LORD says: You have not obeyed
Me; you have not proclai
med freedom, each man for his brother and for his neighbor. So now I proclaim freedom for you, declares the LORD—freedom to fall by sword, by plague, and by famine! I will make you a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth."
Jeremiah 34:16 But now you have changed your minds and profaned My na
me. Each of you has taken back the
menservants and maidservants whom you had set at liberty to go wherever they wanted, and you have again forced them to be your slaves.
Jeremiah 34:15 Recently you repented and did what pleased
Me; each of you proclai
med freedom for his neighbor. You made a covenant before
Me in the house that bears My Na
me.
Jeremiah 34:12 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Jeremiah 34:11 but later they changed their minds and took back the
menservants and maidservants they had freed, and they forced them to beco
me slaves again.
Jeremiah 34:10 So all the officials and all the people who entered into this covenant agreed that they would free their
menservants and maidservants and no longer hold them in bondage. They obeyed and released them,
Jeremiah 34:8 After King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people in Jerusalem to proclaim liberty, the word ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD
Jeremiah 34:5 you will die in peace. As spices were burned for your fathers, the for
mer kings who preceded you, so people will burn spices for you and la
ment, ‘Alas, O master!’ For I Myself have spoken this word, declares the LORD.”"
Jeremiah 34:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, all his army, all the earthly kingdoms under his control, and all the other nations were fighting against Jerusalem and all its surrounding cities.
Jeremiah 33:22 As the hosts of heaven cannot be counted and as the sand on the seashore cannot be
measured, so too will I multiply the descendants of My servant David and the Levites who minister before
Me.”"
Jeremiah 33:20 “This is what the LORD says: If you can break My covenant with the day and My covenant with the night, so that day and night cease to occupy their appointed ti
me,"
Jeremiah 33:18 nor will the priests who are Levites ever fail to have a man before
Me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to present sacrifices.”"
Jeremiah 33:16 In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely, and this is the na
me by which it will be called: The LORD Our Righteousness.
Jeremiah 33:15 In those days and at that ti
me I will cause to sprout for David a righteous Branch, and He will administer justice and righteousness in the land.
Jeremiah 33:11 the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, and the voices of those bringing thank offerings into the house of the LORD, saying: ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good; His loving devotion endures forever.’ For I will restore the land from captivity as in for
mer ti
mes, says the LORD."
Jeremiah 33:9 So this city will bring
Me renown, joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, who will hear of all the good I do for it. They will tremble in awe because of all the goodness and prosperity that I will provide for it.
Jeremiah 33:8 And I will cleanse them from all the iniquity they have committed against
Me, and will forgive all their sins of rebellion against
Me.
Jeremiah 33:7 I will restore Judah and Israel from captivity and will rebuild them as in for
mer ti
mes.
Jeremiah 33:5 The Chaldeans are coming to fight and to fill those places with the corpses of the
men I will strike down in My anger and in My wrath. I have hidden My face from this city because of all its wickedness.
Jeremiah 33:3 Call to
Me, and I will answer and show you great and unsearchable things you do not know.
♫3 Jeremiah 33:2 “Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD who for
med it and established it, the LORD is His na
me:"
Jeremiah 33:1 While Jeremiah was still confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD ca
me to him a second ti
me:
Jeremiah 32:40 I will make an everlasting covenant with them: I will never turn away from doing good to them, and I will put My fear in their hearts, so that they will never turn away from
Me.
♫ Jeremiah 32:39 I will give them one heart and one way, so that they will always fear
Me for their own good and for the good of their children after them.
Jeremiah 32:35 They have built the high places of Baal in the Valley of Hinnom to make their sons and daughters pass through the fire to Molech—so
mething I never commanded them, nor had it ever entered My mind, that they should commit such an abomination and cause Judah to sin."
Jeremiah 32:34 They have placed their abominations in the house that bears My Na
me, and so have defiled it.
Jeremiah 32:33 They have turned their backs to
Me and not their faces. Though I taught them again and again, they would not listen or respond to discipline.
Jeremiah 32:32 because of all the evil the children of Israel and of Judah have done to provoke
Me to anger—they, their kings, their officials, their priests and prophets, the
men of Judah, and the residents of Jerusalem."
Jeremiah 32:30 For the children of Israel and of Judah have done nothing but evil in My sight from their youth; indeed, they have done nothing but provoke
Me to anger by the work of their hands, declares the LORD.
Jeremiah 32:29 And the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city will co
me in, set it on fire, and burn it, along with the houses of those who provoked
Me to anger by burning incense to Baal on their rooftops and by pouring out drink offerings to other gods.
Jeremiah 32:27 “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is anything too difficult for
Me?"
♫ Jeremiah 32:25 Yet You, O Lord GOD, have said to
me, ‘Buy for yourself the field with silver and call in witnesses, even though the city has been delivered into the hands of the Chaldeans!’”"
Jeremiah 32:23 They ca
me in and possessed it, but they did not obey Your voice or walk in Your law. They failed to perform all that You commanded them to do, and so You have brought upon them all this disaster.
Jeremiah 32:20 You perfor
med signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, and You do so to this very day, both in Israel and among all mankind. And You have made a na
me for Yourself, as is the case to this day.
Jeremiah 32:19 the One great in counsel and mighty in deed, whose eyes are on all the ways of the sons of
men, to reward each one according to his ways and according to the fruit of his deeds.
Jeremiah 32:18 You show loving devotion to thousands but lay the iniquity of the fathers into the laps of their children after them, O great and mighty God whose na
me is the LORD of Hosts,
Jeremiah 32:14 “This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Take these deeds—both the sealed copy and the open copy of the deed of purchase—and put them in a clay jar to preserve them for a long ti
me."
Jeremiah 32:12 and I gave this deed to Baruch son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the sight of my cousin Hana
mel and the witnesses who were signing the purchase agree
ment and all the Jews sitting in the courtyard of the guard.
Jeremiah 32:9 So I bought the field in Anathoth from my cousin Hana
mel, and I weighed out seventeen shekels of silver.
Jeremiah 32:8 Then, as the LORD had said, my cousin Hana
mel ca
me to
me in the courtyard of the guard and urged
me, ‘Please buy my field in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, for you own the right of inheritance and redemption. Buy it for yourself.’” Then I knew that this was the word of the LORD."
Jeremiah 32:7 Behold! Hana
mel, the son of your uncle Shallum, is coming to you to say, ‘Buy for yourself my field in Anathoth, for you have the right of redemption to buy it.’"
Jeremiah 32:6 Jeremiah replied, “The word of the LORD ca
me to
me, saying:"
Jeremiah 32:2 At that ti
me the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet was imprisoned in the courtyard of the guard, which was in the palace of the king of Judah.
Jeremiah 32:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
Jeremiah 31:39 The
measuring line will once again stretch out straight to the hill of Gareb and then turn toward Goah.
Jeremiah 31:38 “The days are coming,” declares the LORD, “when this city will be rebuilt for
Me, from the tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate."
Jeremiah 31:37 This is what the LORD says: “Only if the heavens above could be
measured and the foundations of the earth below searched out would I reject all of Israel’s descendants because of all they have done,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 31:36 “Only if this fixed order departed from My presence, declares the LORD, would Israel’s descendants ever cease to be a nation before
Me.”"
Jeremiah 31:35 Thus says the LORD, who gives the sun for light by day, who sets in order the moon and stars for light by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the LORD of Hosts is His na
me:"
Jeremiah 31:34 No longer will each man teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ because they will all know
Me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquities and will re
member their sins no more.”"
♫ Jeremiah 31:26 At this I awoke and looked around. My sleep had been most pleasant to
me.
Jeremiah 31:24 And Judah and all its cities will dwell together in the land, the far
mers and those who move with the flocks,
Jeremiah 31:20 Is not Ephraim a precious son to
Me, a delightful child? Though I often speak against him, I still re
member him. Therefore My heart yearns for him; I have great compassion for him,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 31:19 After I returned, I repented; and after I was instructed, I struck my thigh in grief. I was asha
med and humiliated because I bore the disgrace of my youth.’"
Jeremiah 31:18 I have surely heard Ephraim’s moaning: ‘You disciplined
me severely, like an untrained calf. Restore
me, that I may return, for You are the LORD my God."
Jeremiah 31:16 This is what the LORD says: “Keep your voice from weeping and your eyes from tears, for the reward for your work will co
me, declares the LORD. Then your children will return from the land of the enemy."
Jeremiah 31:13 Then the maidens will rejoice with dancing, young
men and old as well. I will turn their mourning into joy, and give them comfort and joy for their sorrow.
Jeremiah 31:12 They will co
me and shout for joy on the heights of Zion; they will be radiant over the bounty of the LORD—the grain, new wine, and oil, and the young of the flocks and herds. Their life will be like a well-watered garden, and never again will they languish."
Jeremiah 31:11 For the LORD has ranso
med Jacob and redee
med him from the hand that had overpowered him.
Jeremiah 31:9 They will co
me with weeping, and by their supplication I will lead them; I will make them walk beside streams of waters, on a level path where they will not stumble. For I am Israel’s Father, and Ephraim is My firstborn.”"
Jeremiah 31:8 Behold, I will bring them from the land of the north and gather them from the farthest parts of the earth, including the blind and the la
me, expectant mothers and wo
men in labor. They will return as a great assembly!
Jeremiah 31:6 For there will be a day when watch
men will call out on the hills of Ephraim, ‘Arise, let us go up to Zion, to the LORD our God!’”"
♫ Jeremiah 31:5 Again you will plant vineyards on the hills of Samaria; the far
mers will plant and enjoy the fruit.
♫ Jeremiah 31:1 “At that ti

Jeremiah 30:24 The fierce anger of the LORD will not turn back until He has fully accomplished the purposes of His heart. In the days to co
me you will understand this.
Jeremiah 30:21 Their leader will be one of their own, and their ruler will arise from their midst. And I will bring him near, and he will approach
Me, for who would dare on his own to approach
Me?” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 30:20 Their children will be as in days of old, and their congregation will be established before
Me; and I will punish all their oppressors.
Jeremiah 30:15 Why do you cry out over your wound? Your pain has no cure! Because of your great iniquity and your nu
merous sins I have done these things to you.
Jeremiah 30:14 All your lovers have forgotten you; they no longer seek you, for I have struck you as an enemy would, with the discipline of so
meone cruel, because of your great iniquity and your nu
merous sins.
Jeremiah 30:13 There is no one to plead your cause, no re
medy for your sores, no recovery for you.
Jeremiah 30:11 For I am with you to save you, declares the LORD. Though I will completely destroy all the nations to which I have scattered you, I will not completely destroy you. Yet I will discipline you justly, and will by no
means leave you unpunished.”"
Jeremiah 30:7 How awful that day will be! None will be like it! It is the ti
me of Jacob’s distress, but he will be saved out of it."
Jeremiah 30:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD:
Jeremiah 29:31 “Send a
message telling all the exiles what the LORD says concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite. Because Shemaiah has prophesied to you—though I did not send him—and has made you trust in a lie,"
Jeremiah 29:25 this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “In your own na
me you have sent out letters to all the people of Jerusalem, to the priest Zephaniah son of Maaseiah, and to all the priests. You said to Zephaniah:"
Jeremiah 29:23 For they have committed an outrage in Israel by committing adultery with the wives of their neighbors and speaking lies in My na
me, which I did not command them to do. I am He who knows, and I am a witness, declares the LORD.”"
Jeremiah 29:21 This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says about Ahab son of Kolaiah and Zedekiah son of Maaseiah, who are prophesying to you lies in My na
me: “I will deliver them to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he will kill them before your very eyes."
Jeremiah 29:13 You will seek
Me and find
Me when you search for
Me with all your heart.
♫3 Jeremiah 29:12 Then you will call upon
Me and co
me and pray to
Me, and I will listen to you.
♫2 Jeremiah 29:9 For they are falsely prophesying to you in My na
me; I have not sent them, declares the LORD.”"
Jeremiah 29:2 (This was after King Jeconiah, the queen mother, the court officials, the officials of Judah and Jerusalem, the crafts
men, and the
metalsmiths had been exiled from Jerusalem.)
Jeremiah 28:12 But shortly after Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke off his neck, the word of the LORD ca
me to Jeremiah:
Jeremiah 28:11 And in the presence of all the people Hananiah proclai
med, “This is what the LORD says: ‘In this way, within two years I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon off the neck of all the nations.’” At this, Jeremiah the prophet went on his way."
Jeremiah 28:9 As for the prophet who prophesies peace, only if the word of the prophet co
mes true will the prophet be recognized as one the LORD has truly sent.”"
Jeremiah 28:8 The prophets of old who preceded you and
me prophesied war, disaster, and plague against many lands and great kingdoms.
Jeremiah 28:7 Nevertheless, listen now to this
message I am speaking in your hearing and in the hearing of all the people.
Jeremiah 28:6 “A
men!” Jeremiah said. “May the LORD do so! May the LORD fulfill the words you have prophesied, and may He restore the articles of His house and all the exiles back to this place from Babylon."
Jeremiah 28:1 In the fifth month of that sa
me year, the fourth year, near the beginning of the reign of King Zedekiah of Judah, the prophet Hananiah son of Azzur, who was from Gibeon, said to
me in the house of the LORD in the presence of the priests and all the people:
Jeremiah 27:17 Do not listen to them. Serve the king of Babylon and live! Why should this city beco
me a ruin?
Jeremiah 27:15 For I have not sent them, declares the LORD, and yet they are prophesying falsely in My na
me; therefore I will banish you, and you will perish—you and the prophets who prophesy to you.”"
Jeremiah 27:12 And to Zedekiah king of Judah I spoke the sa
me message: “Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon; serve him and his people, and live!"
Jeremiah 27:9 But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your interpreters of dreams, your
mediums, or your sorcerers who declare, ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon.’"
Jeremiah 27:7 All nations will serve him and his son and grandson, until the ti
me of his own land co
mes; then many nations and great kings will enslave him.
Jeremiah 27:5 By My great power and outstretched arm, I made the earth and the
men and beasts on the face of it, and I give it to whom I please.
Jeremiah 27:4 Give them a
message from the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, to relay to their masters:
Jeremiah 27:3 Send word to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon through the envoys who have co
me to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
Jeremiah 27:2 This is what the LORD said to
me: “Make for yourself a yoke out of leather straps and put it on your neck."
Jeremiah 27:1 At the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah king of Judah, this word ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD.
Jeremiah 26:22 Then King Jehoiakim sent
men to Egypt: Elnathan son of Achbor along with so
me other
men.
Jeremiah 26:21 King Jehoiakim and all his mighty
men and officials heard his words, and the king sought to put him to death. But when Uriah found out about it, he fled in fear and went to Egypt.
Jeremiah 26:20 Now there was another man prophesying in the na
me of the LORD, Uriah son of Shemaiah from Kiriath-jearim. He prophesied against this city and against this land the sa
me things that Jeremiah did.
Jeremiah 26:18 “Micah the Moreshite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah and told all the people of Judah that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Zion will be plowed like a field, Jerusalem will beco
me a heap of rubble, and the temple mount a wooded ridge.’"
Jeremiah 26:17 So
me of the elders of the land stood up and said to the whole assembly of the people,
Jeremiah 26:16 Then the officials and all the people told the priests and prophets, “This man is not worthy of death, for he has spoken to us in the na
me of the LORD our God!”"
Jeremiah 26:15 But know for certain that if you put
me to death, you will bring innocent blood upon yourselves, upon this city, and upon its residents; for truly the LORD has sent
me to speak all these words in your hearing.”"
Jeremiah 26:14 As for
me, here I am in your hands; do to
me what you think is good and right.
Jeremiah 26:12 But Jeremiah said to all the officials and all the people, “The LORD sent
me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that you have heard."
Jeremiah 26:9 How dare you prophesy in the na
me of the LORD that this house will beco
me like Shiloh and this city will be desolate and deserted!” And all the people assembled against Jeremiah in the house of the LORD."
Jeremiah 26:4 And you are to tell them that this is what the LORD says: ‘If you do not listen to
Me and walk in My law, which I have set before you,"
Jeremiah 26:2 “This is what the LORD says: Stand in the courtyard of the house of the LORD and speak all the words I have commanded you to speak to all the cities of Judah who co
me to worship there. Do not omit a word."
Jeremiah 26:1 At the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, this word ca
me from the LORD:
Jeremiah 25:37 The peaceful
meadows have been silenced because of the LORD’s burning anger."
Jeremiah 25:34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry out; roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock. For the days of your slaughter have co
me; you will fall and be shattered like fine pottery.
Jeremiah 25:31 The tumult will resound to the ends of the earth because the LORD brings a charge against the nations. He brings judg
ment on all mankind and puts the wicked to the sword,’” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 25:29 For behold, I am beginning to bring disaster on the city that bears My Na
me, so how could you possibly go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, declares the LORD of Hosts.’"
Jeremiah 25:17 So I took the cup from the LORD’s hand and made all the nations drink from it, each one to whom the LORD had sent
me,"
Jeremiah 25:15 This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, said to
me: “Take from My hand this cup of the wine of wrath, and make all the nations to whom I send you drink from it."
Jeremiah 25:11 And this whole land will beco
me a desolate wasteland, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon for seventy years.
Jeremiah 25:7 ‘But to your own harm, you have not listened to
Me,’ declares the LORD, ‘so you have provoked
Me to anger with the works of your hands.’"
Jeremiah 25:6 Do not follow other gods to serve and worship them, and do not provoke
Me to anger with the works of your hands. Then I will do you no harm.’"
Jeremiah 25:3 “From the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah until this very day—twenty-three years—the word of the LORD has co
me to
me, and I have spoken to you again and again, but you have not listened."
Jeremiah 25:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
Jeremiah 24:7 I will give them a heart to know
Me, that I am the LORD. They will be My people, and I will be their God, for they will return to
Me with all their heart.
Jeremiah 24:1 After Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, as well as the officials of Judah and the crafts
men and
metalsmiths from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon, the LORD showed
me two baskets of figs placed in front of the temple of the LORD.
Jeremiah 23:40 And I will bring upon you everlasting sha
me and perpetual humiliation that will never be forgotten.”"
Jeremiah 23:36 But refer no more to the burden of the LORD, for each man’s word beco
mes the burden, so that you pervert the words of the living God, the LORD of Hosts, our God."
Jeremiah 23:30 “Therefore behold,” declares the LORD, “I am against the prophets who steal from one another words they attribute to
Me.”"
Jeremiah 23:29 “Is not My word like fire,” declares the LORD, “and like a ham
mer that smashes a rock?”"
Jeremiah 23:27 They suppose the dreams that they tell one another will make My people forget My na
me, just as their fathers forgot My na
me through the worship of Baal.
Jeremiah 23:25 “I have heard the sayings of the prophets who prophesy lies in My na
me: ‘I had a dream! I had a dream!’"
Jeremiah 23:22 But if they had stood in My council, they would have proclai
med My words to My people and turned them back from their evil ways and deeds.”"
Jeremiah 23:21 I did not send these prophets, yet they have run with their
message; I did not speak to them, yet they have prophesied.
Jeremiah 23:20 The anger of the LORD will not turn back until He has fully accomplished the purposes of His heart. In the days to co
me you will understand this clearly.
Jeremiah 23:17 They keep saying to those who despise
Me, ‘The LORD says that you will have peace,’ and to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart, ‘No harm will co
me to you.’"
Jeremiah 23:14 And among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a horrible thing: They commit adultery and walk in lies. They strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one turns his back on wickedness. They are all like Sodom to
Me; the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.”"
Jeremiah 23:12 “Therefore their path will beco
me slick; they will be driven away into the darkness and fall into it. For I will bring disaster upon them in the year of their punish
ment,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 23:9 As for the prophets: My heart is broken within
me, and all my bones tremble. I have beco
me like a drunkard, like a man overco
me by wine, because of the LORD, because of His holy words.
Jeremiah 23:6 In His days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell securely. And this is His na
me by which He will be called: The LORD Our Righteousness.
Jeremiah 22:30 This is what the LORD says: “Enroll this man as childless, a man who will not prosper in his lifeti

Jeremiah 22:23 O inhabitant of Lebanon, nestled in the cedars, how you will groan when pangs of anguish co
me upon you, agony like a woman in labor.”"
Jeremiah 22:22 The wind will drive away all your shepherds, and your lovers will go into captivity. Then you will be asha
med and humiliated because of all your wickedness.
Jeremiah 22:16 He took up the cause of the poor and needy, and so it went well with him. Is this not what it
means to know
Me?” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 22:13 “Woe to him who builds his palace by unrighteousness, and his upper rooms without justice, who makes his country
men serve without pay, and fails to pay their wages,"
Jeremiah 22:6 For this is what the LORD says concerning the house of the king of Judah: “You are like Gilead to
Me, like the summit of Lebanon; but I will surely turn you into a desert, like cities that are uninhabited."
♫ Jeremiah 22:5 But if you do not obey these words, then I swear by Myself, declares the LORD, that this house will beco
me a pile of rubble.’”"
Jeremiah 22:1 This is what the LORD says: “Go down to the palace of the king of Judah and proclaim this
message there,"
Jeremiah 21:14 I will punish you as your deeds deserve, declares the LORD. I will kindle a fire in your forest that will consu
me everything around you.’”"
Jeremiah 21:13 Behold, I am against you who dwell above the valley, atop the rocky plateau—declares the LORD—you who say, “Who can co
me against us? Who can enter our dwellings?”"
Jeremiah 21:2 “Please inquire of the LORD on our behalf, since Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon is waging war against us. Perhaps the LORD will perform for us so
mething like all His past wonders, so that Nebuchadnezzar will withdraw from us.”"
Jeremiah 21:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD when King Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur son of Malchijah and the priest Zephaniah son of Maaseiah. They said,
Jeremiah 20:18 Why did I co
me out of the womb to see only trouble and sorrow, and to end my days in sha
me?
Jeremiah 20:17 because he did not kill
me in the womb so that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb forever enlarged.
Jeremiah 20:14 Cursed be the day I was born! May the day my mother bore
me never be blessed.
Jeremiah 20:12 O LORD of Hosts, who examines the righteous, who sees the heart and mind, let
me see Your vengeance upon them, for to You I have committed my cause.
Jeremiah 20:11 But the LORD is with
me like a fearso
me warrior. Therefore, my persecutors will stumble and will not prevail. Since they have not succeeded, they will be utterly put to sha
me, with an everlasting disgrace that will never be forgotten.
Jeremiah 20:9 If I say, “I will not
mention Him or speak any more in His na
me,” His
message beco
mes a fire burning in my heart, shut up in my bones, and I beco
me weary of holding it in, and I cannot prevail."
Jeremiah 20:8 For whenever I speak, I cry out; I proclaim violence and destruction. For the word of the LORD has beco
me to
me a reproach and derision all day long.
Jeremiah 20:7 You have deceived
me, O LORD, and I was deceived. You have overco
me me and prevailed. I am a laughingstock all day long; everyone mocks
me.
Jeremiah 20:1 When Pashhur the priest, the son of Im
mer and the chief official in the house of the LORD, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things,
Jeremiah 19:14 Then Jeremiah returned from Topheth, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the courtyard of the house of the LORD and proclai
med to all the people,
Jeremiah 19:10 Then you are to shatter the jar in the presence of the
men who accompany you,
Jeremiah 19:5 They have built high places to Baal on which to burn their children in the fire as offerings to Baal—so
mething I never commanded or
mentioned, nor did it even enter My mind."
Jeremiah 19:4 because they have abandoned
Me and made this a foreign place. They have burned incense in this place to other gods that neither they nor their fathers nor the kings of Judah have ever known. They have filled this place with the blood of the innocent.
Jeremiah 19:1 This is what the LORD says: “Go and buy a clay jar from a potter. Take so
me of the elders of the people and leaders of the priests,"
Jeremiah 18:23 But You, O LORD, know all their deadly plots against
me. Do not wipe out their guilt or blot out their sin from Your sight. Let them be overthrown before You; deal with them in the ti
me of Your anger.
Jeremiah 18:22 Let a cry be heard from their houses when You suddenly bring raiders against them, for they have dug a pit to capture
me and have hidden snares for my feet.
Jeremiah 18:21 Therefore, hand their children over to famine; pour out the power of the sword upon them. Let their wives beco
me childless and widowed; let their husbands be slain by disease, their young
men struck down by the sword in battle.
Jeremiah 18:20 Should good be repaid with evil? Yet they have dug a pit for
me. Re
member how I stood before You to speak good on their behalf, to turn Your wrath from them.
Jeremiah 18:19 Attend to
me, O LORD. Hear what my accusers are saying!
Jeremiah 18:18 Then so
me said, “Co
me, let us make plans against Jeremiah, for the law will never be lost to the priest, nor counsel to the wise, nor an oracle to the prophet. Co
me, let us denounce him and pay no heed to any of his words.”"
Jeremiah 18:15 Yet My people have forgotten
Me. They burn incense to worthless idols that make them stumble in their ways, leaving the ancient roads to walk on rutted bypaths instead of on the highway.
Jeremiah 18:11 Now therefore, tell the
men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem that this is what the LORD says: ‘Behold, I am planning a disaster for you and devising a plan against you. Turn now, each of you, from your evil ways, and correct your ways and deeds.’"
Jeremiah 18:9 And if at another ti
me I announce that I will build up and establish a nation or kingdom,
Jeremiah 18:7 At any ti
me I might announce that a nation or kingdom will be uprooted, torn down, and destroyed.
Jeremiah 18:4 But the vessel that he was shaping from the clay beca
me flawed in his hand; so he for
med it into another vessel, as it see
med best for him to do.
Jeremiah 18:2 “Go down at once to the potter’s house, and there I will reveal My
message to you.”"
Jeremiah 18:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD:
Jeremiah 17:27 But if you do not listen to
Me to keep the Sabbath day holy by not carrying a load while entering the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle an unquenchable fire in its gates to consu
me the citadels of Jerusalem.’”"
Jeremiah 17:26 And people will co
me from the cities of Judah and the places around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, and from the foothills, the hill country, and the Negev, bringing burnt offerings and sacrifices, grain offerings and frankincense, and thank offerings to the house of the LORD.
Jeremiah 17:25 then kings and princes will enter through the gates of this city. They will sit on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses with their officials, along with the
men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem, and this city will be inhabited forever.
Jeremiah 17:24 If, however, you listen carefully to
Me, says the LORD, and bring no load through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, and keep the Sabbath day holy, and do no work on it,
Jeremiah 17:19 This is what the LORD said to
me: “Go and stand at the gate of the people, through which the kings of Judah go in and out; and stand at all the other gates of Jerusalem."
Jeremiah 17:18 Let my persecutors be put to sha
me, but do not let
me be put to sha
me. Let them be terrified, but do not let
me be terrified. Bring upon them the day of disaster and shatter them with double destruction.
Jeremiah 17:17 Do not beco
me a terror to
me; You are my refuge in the day of disaster.
Jeremiah 17:15 Behold, they keep saying to
me, “Where is the word of the LORD? Let it co
me now!”"
Jeremiah 17:14 Heal
me, O LORD, and I will be healed; save
me, and I will be saved, for You are my praise.
♫ Jeremiah 17:13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all who abandon You will be put to sha
me. All who turn away will be written in the dust, for they have abandoned the LORD, the fountain of living water.
Jeremiah 17:8 He is like a tree planted by the waters that sends out its roots toward the stream. It does not fear when the heat co
mes, and its leaves are always green. It does not worry in a year of drought, nor does it cease to produce fruit.
Jeremiah 17:6 He will be like a shrub in the desert; he will not see when prosperity co
mes. He will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt land where no one lives.
Jeremiah 17:2 Even their children re
member their altars and Asherah poles by the green trees and on the high hills.
Jeremiah 16:21 “Therefore behold, I will inform them, and this ti
me I will make them know My power and My might; then they will know that My na
me is the LORD."
Jeremiah 16:19 O LORD, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in the day of distress, the nations will co
me to You from the ends of the earth, and they will say, “Our fathers inherited nothing but lies, worthless idols of no benefit at all."
Jeremiah 16:16 But for now I will send for many fisher
men, declares the LORD, and they will catch them. After that I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them down on every mountain and hill, even from the clefts of the rocks.
Jeremiah 16:12 And you have done more evil than your fathers. See how each of you follows the stubbornness of his evil heart instead of obeying
Me.
Jeremiah 16:11 Then you are to answer them: ‘It is because your fathers have forsaken
Me, declares the LORD, and followed other gods, and served and worshiped them. They abandoned
Me and did not keep My instruction."
Jeremiah 16:5 Indeed, this is what the LORD says: “Do not enter a house where there is a funeral
meal. Do not go to mourn or show sympathy, for I have removed from this people My peace, My loving devotion, and My compassion,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 16:4 “They will die from deadly diseases. They will not be mourned or buried, but will lie like dung on the ground. They will be finished off by sword and famine, and their corpses will beco
me food for the birds of the air and beasts of the earth.”"
Jeremiah 15:20 Then I will make you a wall to this people, a fortified wall of bronze; they will fight against you but will not overco
me you, for I am with you to save and deliver you, declares the LORD.
Jeremiah 15:18 Why is my pain unending, and my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? You have indeed beco
me like a mirage to
me—water that is not there."
Jeremiah 15:17 I never sat with the band of revelers, nor did I celebrate with them. Because Your hand was on
me, I sat alone, for You have filled
me with indignation.
Jeremiah 15:16 Your words were found, and I ate them. Your words beca
me my joy and my heart’s delight. For I bear Your na
me, O LORD God of Hosts."
Jeremiah 15:15 You understand, O LORD; re
member
me and attend to
me. Avenge
me against my persecutors. In Your patience, do not take
me away. Know that I endure reproach for Your honor.
Jeremiah 15:11 The LORD said: “Surely I will deliver you for a good purpose; surely I will intercede with your enemy in your ti
me of trouble, in your ti
me of distress."
Jeremiah 15:10 Woe to
me, my mother, that you have borne
me, a man of strife and conflict in all the land. I have neither lent nor borrowed, yet everyone curses
me.
Jeremiah 15:8 I will make their widows more nu
merous than the sand of the sea. I will bring a destroyer at noon against the mothers of young
men. I will suddenly bring upon them anguish and dismay.
Jeremiah 15:6 You have forsaken
Me, declares the LORD. You have turned your back. So I will stretch out My hand against you and I will destroy you; I am weary of showing compassion.
Jeremiah 15:1 Then the LORD said to
me: “Even if Moses and Samuel should stand before
Me, My heart would not go out to this people. Send them from My presence, and let them go."
Jeremiah 14:21 For the sake of Your na
me do not despise us; do not disgrace Your glorious throne. Re
member Your covenant with us; do not break it.
Jeremiah 14:19 Have You rejected Judah completely? Do You despise Zion? Why have You stricken us so that we are beyond healing? We hoped for peace, but no good has co
me, and for the ti
me of healing, but there was only terror.
Jeremiah 14:15 Therefore this is what the LORD says about the prophets who prophesy in My na
me: I did not send them, yet they say, ‘No sword or famine will touch this land.’ By sword and famine these very prophets will
meet their end!"
Jeremiah 14:14 “The prophets are prophesying lies in My na
me,” replied the LORD. “I did not send them or appoint them or speak to them. They are prophesying to you a false vision, a worthless divination, the futility and delusion of their own minds."
Jeremiah 14:11 Then the LORD said to
me, “Do not pray for the well-being of this people."
Jeremiah 14:10 This is what the LORD says about this people: “Truly they love to wander; they have not restrained their feet. So the LORD does not accept them; He will now re
member their guilt and call their sins to account.”"
Jeremiah 14:9 Why are You like a man taken by surprise, like a warrior powerless to save? Yet You are among us, O LORD, and we are called by Your na
me. Do not forsake us!
Jeremiah 14:8 O Hope of Israel, its Savior in ti
mes of distress, why are You like a stranger in the land, like a traveler who stays but a night?
Jeremiah 14:7 Although our iniquities testify against us, O LORD, act for the sake of Your na
me. Indeed, our rebellions are many; we have sinned against You.
Jeremiah 14:4 The ground is cracked because no rain has fallen on the land. The far
mers are asha
med; they cover their heads.
Jeremiah 14:3 The nobles send their servants for water; they go to the cisterns, but find no water; their jars return empty. They are asha
med and humiliated; they cover their heads.
Jeremiah 14:1 This is the word of the LORD that ca
me to Jeremiah concerning the drought:
Jeremiah 13:27 Your adulteries and lustful neighings, your sha
meless prostitution on the hills and in the fields—I have seen your detestable acts. Woe to you, O Jerusalem! How long will you remain unclean?”"
Jeremiah 13:26 So I will pull your skirts up over your face, that your sha
me may be seen.
Jeremiah 13:25 This is your lot, the portion I have
measured to you,” declares the LORD, “because you have forgotten
Me and trusted in falsehood."
Jeremiah 13:23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Neither are you able to do good—you who are accusto
med to doing evil."
Jeremiah 13:22 And if you ask yourself, “Why has this happened to
me?” It is because of the magnitude of your iniquity that your skirts have been stripped off and your body has been exposed."
Jeremiah 13:14 I will smash them against one another, fathers and sons alike, declares the LORD. I will allow no
mercy or pity or compassion to keep
Me from destroying them.’”"
Jeremiah 13:11 For just as a loincloth clings to a man’s waist, so I have made the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah cling to
Me, declares the LORD, so that they might be My people for My renown and praise and glory. But they did not listen."
Jeremiah 13:9 “This is what the LORD says: In the sa
me way I will ruin the pride of Judah and the great pride of Jerusalem."
Jeremiah 13:6 Many days later the LORD said to
me, “Arise, go to Perath, and get the loincloth that I commanded you to hide there.”"
Jeremiah 13:5 So I went and hid it at Perath, as the LORD had commanded
me.
Jeremiah 13:3 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to
me a second ti
me:
Jeremiah 13:2 So I bought a loincloth as the LORD had instructed
me, and I put it around my waist.
Jeremiah 13:1 This is what the LORD said to
me: “Go and buy yourself a linen loincloth and put it around your waist, but do not let it touch water.”"
Jeremiah 12:16 And if they will diligently learn the ways of My people and swear by My na
me, saying, ‘As surely as the LORD lives’—just as they once taught My people to swear by Baal—then they will be established among My people."
Jeremiah 12:13 They have sown wheat but harvested thorns. They have exhausted themselves to no avail. Bear the sha
me of your harvest because of the fierce anger of the LORD.”"
Jeremiah 12:12 Over all the barren heights in the wilderness the destroyers have co
me, for the sword of the LORD devours from one end of the earth to the other. No flesh has peace.
Jeremiah 12:11 They have made it a desolation; desolate before
Me, it mourns. All the land is laid waste, but no man takes it to heart.
Jeremiah 12:9 Is not My inheritance to
Me like a speckled bird of prey with other birds of prey circling against her? Go, gather all the beasts of the field; bring them to devour her.
Jeremiah 12:8 My inheritance has beco
me to
Me like a lion in the forest. She has roared against
Me; therefore I hate her.
Jeremiah 12:5 “If you have raced with
men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in a peaceful land, how will you do in the thickets of the Jordan?"
Jeremiah 12:3 But You know
me, O LORD; You see
me and test my heart toward You. Drag away the wicked like sheep to the slaughter and set them apart for the day of carnage.
Jeremiah 12:1 Righteous are You, O LORD, when I plead before You. Yet about Your judg
ments I wish to contend with You: Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why do all the faithless live at ease?
Jeremiah 11:23 There will be no remnant, for I will bring disaster on the people of Anathoth in the year of their punish
ment.”"
Jeremiah 11:22 So this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “I will punish them. Their young
men will die by the sword, their sons and daughters by famine."
Jeremiah 11:21 Therefore this is what the LORD says concerning the people of Anathoth who are seeking your life and saying, “You must not prophesy in the na
me of the LORD, or you will die by our hand.”"
Jeremiah 11:20 O LORD of Hosts, who judges righteously, who examines the heart and mind, let
me see Your vengeance upon them, for to You I have committed my cause.
Jeremiah 11:19 For I was like a gentle lamb led to slaughter; I did not know that they had plotted against
me: “Let us destroy the tree with its fruit; let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his na
me may be re
membered no more.”"
Jeremiah 11:18 And the LORD infor
med
me, so I knew. Then You showed
me their deeds.
Jeremiah 11:17 The LORD of Hosts, who planted you, has decreed disaster against you on account of the evil that the house of Israel and the house of Judah have brought upon themselves, provoking
Me to anger by burning incense to Baal.”"
Jeremiah 11:16 The LORD once called you a flourishing olive tree, beautiful with well-for
med fruit. But with a mighty roar He will set it on fire, and its branches will be consu
med.
Jeremiah 11:15 What right has My beloved in My house, having carried out so many evil sche
mes? Can consecrated
meat avert your doom, so that you can rejoice?
Jeremiah 11:14 As for you, do not pray for these people. Do not raise up a cry or a prayer on their behalf, for I will not be listening when they call out to
Me in their ti
me of disaster.
Jeremiah 11:13 Your gods are indeed as nu
merous as your cities, O Judah; the altars of sha
me you have set up—the altars to burn incense to Baal—are as many as the streets of Jerusalem.’"
Jeremiah 11:12 Then the cities of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem will go and cry out to the gods to which they have been burning incense, but these gods certainly will not save them in their ti
me of disaster.
Jeremiah 11:11 Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘I am about to bring upon them a disaster that they cannot escape. They will cry out to
Me, but I will not listen to them."
Jeremiah 11:9 And the LORD told
me, “There is a conspiracy among the
men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem."
Jeremiah 11:7 For from the ti
me I brought your fathers out of the land of Egypt until today, I strongly warned them again and again, saying, ‘Obey My voice.’"
Jeremiah 11:6 Then the LORD said to
me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying: Hear the words of this covenant and carry them out."
Jeremiah 11:5 This was in order to establish the oath I swore to your forefathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is to this day.” “A
men, LORD,” I answered."
Jeremiah 11:4 which I commanded your forefathers when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace, saying, ‘Obey
Me, and do everything I command you, and you will be My people, and I will be your God.’"
Jeremiah 11:2 “Listen to the words of this covenant and tell them to the
men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem."
Jeremiah 11:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD:
Jeremiah 10:25 Pour out Your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge You, and on the families that do not call on Your na
me. For they have devoured Jacob; they have consu
med him and finished him off; they have devastated his ho
meland.
Jeremiah 10:24 Correct
me, O LORD, but only with justice—not in Your anger, or You will bring
me to nothing."
Jeremiah 10:21 For the shepherds have beco
me senseless; they do not seek the LORD. Therefore they have not prospered, and all their flock is scattered.
Jeremiah 10:20 My tent is destroyed, and all its ropes are snapped. My sons have departed from
me and are no more. I have no one left to pitch my tent or set up my curtains.
Jeremiah 10:19 Woe to
me because of my brokenness; my wound is grievous! But I said, “This is truly my sickness, and I must bear it.”"
Jeremiah 10:18 For this is what the LORD says: “Behold, at this ti
me I will sling out the inhabitants of the land and bring distress upon them so that they may be captured.”"
Jeremiah 10:16 The Portion of Jacob is not like these, for He is the Maker of all things, and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance—the LORD of Hosts is His na
me."
Jeremiah 10:15 They are worthless, a work to be mocked. In the ti
me of their punish
ment they will perish.
Jeremiah 10:14 Every man is senseless and devoid of knowledge; every goldsmith is put to sha
me by his idols. For his molten images are a fraud, and there is no breath in them.
Jeremiah 10:9 Ham
mered silver is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz—the work of a craftsman from the hands of a goldsmith. Their clothes are blue and purple, all fashioned by skilled workers."
Jeremiah 10:7 Who would not fear You, O King of nations? This is Your due. For among all the wise
men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like You.
Jeremiah 10:6 There is none like You, O LORD. You are great, and Your na
me is mighty in power.
Jeremiah 10:4 They adorn it with silver and gold and fasten it with ham
mer and nails, so that it will not totter.
Jeremiah 9:24 But let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows
Me, that I am the LORD, who exercises loving devotion, justice and righteousness on the earth—for I delight in these things,” declares the LORD."
♫ Jeremiah 9:22 Declare that this is what the LORD says: “The corpses of
men will fall like dung upon the open field, like newly cut grain behind the reaper, with no one to gather it.”"
Jeremiah 9:21 For death has climbed in through our windows; it has entered our fortresses to cut off the children from the streets, the young
men from the town squares.
Jeremiah 9:20 Now, O wo
men, hear the word of the LORD. Open your ears to the word of His mouth. Teach your daughters to wail, and one another to la
ment.
Jeremiah 9:19 For the sound of wailing is heard from Zion: ‘How devastated we are! How great is our sha
me! For we have abandoned the land because our dwellings have been torn down.’”"
Jeremiah 9:18 Let them co
me quickly and take up a la
ment over us, that our eyes may overflow with tears, and our eyelids may gush with water.
Jeremiah 9:17 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Take note, and summon the wailing wo
men; send for the most skillful among them."
Jeremiah 9:6 You dwell in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to know
Me,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 9:3 “They bend their tongues like bows; lies prevail over truth in the land. For they proceed from evil to evil, and they do not take
Me into account,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 8:21 For the brokenness of the daughter of my people I am crushed. I mourn; horror has gripped
me.
Jeremiah 8:20 “The harvest has passed, the sum
mer has ended, but we have not been saved.”"
Jeremiah 8:19 Listen to the cry of the daughter of my people from a land far away: “Is the LORD no longer in Zion? Is her King no longer there?” “Why have they provoked
Me to anger with their carved images, with their worthless foreign idols?”"
Jeremiah 8:18 My sorrow is beyond healing; my heart is faint within
me.
Jeremiah 8:17 “For behold, I will send snakes among you, vipers that cannot be char
med, and they will bite you,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 8:16 The snorting of enemy horses is heard from Dan. At the sound of the neighing of mighty steeds, the whole land quakes. They co
me to devour the land and everything in it, the city and all who dwell in it.
Jeremiah 8:15 We hoped for peace, but no good has co
me, for a ti
me of healing, but there was only terror.
Jeremiah 8:14 Why are we just sitting here? Gather together, let us flee to the fortified cities and perish there, for the LORD our God has doo
med us. He has given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.
Jeremiah 8:12 Are they asha
med of the abomination they have committed? No, they have no sha
me at all; they do not even know how to blush. So they will fall among the fallen; when I punish them, they will collapse, says the LORD.
Jeremiah 8:10 Therefore I will give their wives to other
men and their fields to new owners. For from the least of them to the greatest, all are greedy for gain; from prophet to priest, all practice deceit.
Jeremiah 8:9 The wise will be put to sha
me; they will be dismayed and trapped. Since they have rejected the word of the LORD, what wisdom do they really have?
Jeremiah 8:7 Even the stork in the sky knows her appointed seasons. The turtledove, the swift, and the thrush keep their ti
me of migration, but My people do not know the require
ments of the LORD.
Jeremiah 8:4 So you are to tell them this is what the LORD says: “Do
men fall and not get up again? Does one turn away and not return?"
Jeremiah 8:2 They will be exposed to the sun and moon, and to all the host of heaven which they have loved, served, followed, consulted, and worshiped. Their bones will not be gathered up or buried, but will beco
me like dung lying on the ground.
Jeremiah 8:1 “At that ti
me,” declares the LORD, “the bones of the kings of Judah, the bones of the officials, the bones of the priests, the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem will be removed from their graves."
Jeremiah 7:34 I will remove from the cities of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem the sounds of joy and gladness and the voices of the bride and bridegroom, for the land will beco
me a wasteland.”"
Jeremiah 7:33 The corpses of this people will beco
me food for the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one to scare them away.
Jeremiah 7:31 They have built the high places of Topheth in the Valley of Hinnom so they could burn their sons and daughters in the fire—so
mething I never commanded, nor did it even enter My mind."
Jeremiah 7:30 For the people of Judah have done evil in My sight, declares the LORD. They have set up their abominations in the house that bears My Na
me, and so have defiled it.
Jeremiah 7:29 Cut off your hair and throw it away. Raise up a la
mentation on the barren heights, for the LORD has rejected and forsaken the generation of His wrath.’"
Jeremiah 7:26 Yet they would not listen to
Me or incline their ear, but they stiffened their necks and did more evil than their fathers.
Jeremiah 7:25 From the day your fathers ca
me out of the land of Egypt until this day, I have sent you all My servants the prophets again and again.
Jeremiah 7:23 but this is what I commanded them: Obey
Me, and I will be your God, and you will be My people. You must walk in all the ways I have commanded you, so that it may go well with you.
Jeremiah 7:22 For when I brought your fathers out of the land of Egypt, I did not
merely command them about burnt offerings and sacrifices,
Jeremiah 7:21 This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Add your burnt offerings to your other sacrifices and eat the
meat yourselves!
Jeremiah 7:19 But am I the One they are provoking? declares the LORD. Is it not themselves they spite, to their own sha
me?
Jeremiah 7:18 The sons gather wood, the fathers light the fire, and the wo
men knead the dough to make cakes for the Queen of Heaven; they pour out drink offerings to other gods to provoke
Me to anger.
Jeremiah 7:16 As for you, do not pray for these people, do not offer a plea or petition on their behalf, and do not beg
Me, for I will not listen to you.
Jeremiah 7:14 therefore what I did to Shiloh I will now do to the house that bears My Na
me, the house in which you trust, the place that I gave to you and your fathers.
Jeremiah 7:12 But go now to the place in Shiloh where I first made a dwelling for My Na
me, and see what I did to it because of the wickedness of My people Israel.
Jeremiah 7:11 Has this house, which bears My Na
me, beco
me a den of robbers in your sight? Yes, I too have seen it, declares the LORD.
Jeremiah 7:10 and then co
me and stand before
Me in this house, which bears My Na
me, and say, ‘We are delivered, so we can continue with all these abominations’?"
Jeremiah 7:2 “Stand in the gate of the house of the LORD and proclaim this
message: Hear the word of the LORD, all you people of Judah who enter through these gates to worship the LORD."
Jeremiah 7:1 This is the word that ca
me to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Jeremiah 6:26 O daughter of my people, dress yourselves in sackcloth and roll in ashes. Mourn with bitter wailing, as you would for an only son, for suddenly the destroyer will co
me upon us.
Jeremiah 6:23 They grasp the bow and spear; they are cruel and
merciless. Their voice roars like the sea, and they ride upon horses, lined up like
men in formation against you, O Daughter of Zion.”"
Jeremiah 6:20 What use to
Me is frankincense from Sheba or sweet cane from a distant land? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable; your sacrifices do not please
Me.”"
Jeremiah 6:19 Hear, O earth! I am bringing disaster on this people, the fruit of their own sche
mes, because they have paid no attention to My word and have rejected My instruction.
Jeremiah 6:17 I appointed watch
men over you and said, ‘Listen for the sound of the ram’s horn.’ But they answered, ‘We will not listen!’"
Jeremiah 6:15 Are they asha
med of the abomination they have committed? No, they have no sha
me at all; they do not even know how to blush. So they will fall among the fallen; when I punish them, they will collapse,” says the LORD."
Jeremiah 6:11 But I am full of the LORD’s wrath; I am tired of holding it back. “Pour it out on the children in the street, and on the young
men gathered together. For both husband and wife will be captured, the old and the very old alike."
Jeremiah 6:10 To whom can I give this warning? Who will listen to
me? Look, their ears are closed, so they cannot hear. See, the word of the LORD has beco
me offensive to them; they find no pleasure in it.
Jeremiah 6:7 As a well gushes its water, so she pours out her evil. Violence and destruction resound in her; sickness and wounds are ever before
Me.
Jeremiah 6:3 Shepherds and their flocks will co
me against her; they will pitch their tents all around her, each tending his own portion:
Jeremiah 5:27 Like cages full of birds, so their houses are full of deceit. Therefore they have beco
me powerful and rich.
Jeremiah 5:26 For among My people are wicked
men; they watch like fowlers lying in wait; they set a trap to catch
men.
Jeremiah 5:22 Do you not fear
Me?” declares the LORD. “Do you not tremble before
Me, the One who set the sand as the boundary for the sea, an enduring barrier it cannot cross? The waves surge, but they cannot prevail. They roar but cannot cross it."
Jeremiah 5:19 And when the people ask, ‘For what offense has the LORD our God done all these things to us?’ You are to tell them, ‘Just as you have forsaken
Me and served foreign gods in your land, so will you serve foreigners in a land that is not your own.’”"
Jeremiah 5:17 They will devour your harvest and food; they will consu
me your sons and daughters; they will eat up your flocks and herds; they will feed on your vines and fig trees. With the sword they will destroy the fortified cities in which you trust.”"
Jeremiah 5:16 Their quivers are like open graves; they are all mighty
men.
Jeremiah 5:14 Therefore this is what the LORD God of Hosts says: “Because you have spoken this word, I will make My words a fire in your mouth and this people the wood it consu

Jeremiah 5:12 They have lied about the LORD and said: “He will not do anything; harm will not co
me to us; we will not see sword or famine."
Jeremiah 5:11 For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have been utterly unfaithful to
Me,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 5:7 “Why should I forgive you? Your children have forsaken
Me and sworn by gods that are not gods. I satisfied their needs, yet they committed adultery and assembled at the houses of prostitutes."
Jeremiah 5:6 Therefore a lion from the forest will strike them down, a wolf from the desert will ravage them. A leopard will lie in wait near their cities, and everyone who ventures out will be torn to pieces. For their rebellious acts are many, and their unfaithful deeds are nu
merous.
Jeremiah 4:31 For I hear a cry like a woman in labor, a cry of anguish like one bearing her first child—the cry of the Daughter of Zion gasping for breath, stretching out her hands to say, “Woe is
me, for my soul faints before the murderers!”"
Jeremiah 4:22 “For My people are fools; they have not known
Me. They are foolish children, without understanding. They are skilled in doing evil, but they know not how to do good.”"
Jeremiah 4:20 Disaster after disaster is proclai

Jeremiah 4:19 My anguish, my anguish! I writhe in pain! Oh, the pain in my chest! My heart pounds within
me; I cannot be silent. For I have heard the sound of the horn, the alarm of battle.
Jeremiah 4:18 “Your ways and deeds have brought this upon you. This is your punish

Jeremiah 4:17 They surround her like
men guarding a field, because she has rebelled against
Me,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 4:16 Warn the nations now! Proclaim to Jerusalem: “A besieging army co
mes from a distant land; they raise their voices against the cities of Judah."
Jeremiah 4:12 a wind too strong for that co
mes from
Me. Now I also pronounce judg
ments against them.”"
Jeremiah 4:11 At that ti
me it will be said to this people and to Jerusalem, “A searing wind from the barren heights in the desert blows toward the daughter of My people, but not to winnow or to sift;"
Jeremiah 4:4 Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and remove the foreskins of your hearts, O
men of Judah and people of Jerusalem. Otherwise, My wrath will break out like fire and burn with no one to extinguish it, because of your evil deeds.”"
Jeremiah 4:3 For this is what the LORD says to the
men of Judah and Jerusalem: “Break up your unplowed ground, and do not sow among the thorns."
Jeremiah 4:1 “If you will return, O Israel, return to
Me,” declares the LORD. “If you will remove your detestable idols from My sight and no longer waver,"
Jeremiah 3:25 Let us lie down in our sha
me; let our disgrace cover us. We have sinned against the LORD our God, both we and our fathers; from our youth even to this day we have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.”"
Jeremiah 3:24 From our youth, that sha
meful god has consu
med what our fathers have worked for—their flocks and herds, their sons and daughters."
Jeremiah 3:23 Surely deception co
mes from the hills, and commotion from the mountains. Surely the salvation of Israel is in the LORD our God.
Jeremiah 3:22 “Return, O faithless children, and I will heal your faithlessness.” “Here we are. We co
me to You, for You are the LORD our God."
Jeremiah 3:21 A voice is heard on the barren heights, the children of Israel weeping and begging for
mercy, because they have perverted their ways and forgotten the LORD their God.
Jeremiah 3:20 But as a woman may betray her husband, so you have betrayed
Me, O house of Israel,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 3:19 Then I said, ‘How I long to make you My sons and give you a desirable land, the most beautiful inheritance of all the nations!’ I thought you would call
Me ‘Father’ and never turn away from following
Me."
Jeremiah 3:18 In those days the house of Judah will walk with the house of Israel, and they will co
me together from the land of the north to the land that I gave to your fathers as an inheritance.
Jeremiah 3:17 At that ti
me Jerusalem will be called The Throne of the LORD, and all the nations will be gathered in Jerusalem to honor the na

Jeremiah 3:16 “In those days, when you multiply and increase in the land,” declares the LORD, “they will no longer discuss the ark of the covenant of the LORD. It will never co
me to mind, and no one will re
member it or miss it, nor will another one be made."
Jeremiah 3:12 Go, proclaim this
message toward the north: ‘Return, O faithless Israel,’ declares the LORD. ‘I will no longer look on you with anger, for I am
merciful,’ declares the LORD. ‘I will not be angry forever."
Jeremiah 3:11 And the LORD said to
me, “Faithless Israel has shown herself more righteous than unfaithful Judah."
Jeremiah 3:10 Yet in spite of all this, her unfaithful sister Judah did not return to
Me with all her heart, but only in pretense,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 3:7 I thought that after she had done all these things, she would return to
Me. But she did not return, and her unfaithful sister Judah saw it.
Jeremiah 3:6 Now in the days of King Josiah, the LORD said to
me, “Have you seen what faithless Israel has done? She has gone up on every high hill and under every green tree to prostitute herself there."
Jeremiah 3:4 Have you not just called to
Me, ‘My Father, You are my friend from youth."
Jeremiah 3:3 Therefore the showers have been withheld, and no spring rains have fallen. Yet you have the brazen look of a prostitute; you refuse to be asha

Jeremiah 3:1 “If a man divorces his wife and she leaves him to marry another, can he ever return to her? Would not such a land be completely defiled? But you have played the harlot with many lovers—and you would return to
Me?” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 2:35 you say, ‘I am innocent. Surely His anger will turn from
me.’ Behold, I will judge you, because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’"
Jeremiah 2:33 How skillfully you pursue love! Even the most immoral of wo
men could learn from your ways.
Jeremiah 2:32 Does a maiden forget her jewelry or a bride her wedding sash? Yet My people have forgotten
Me for days without number.
Jeremiah 2:31 You people of this generation, consider the word of the LORD: “Have I been a wilderness to Israel or a land of dense darkness? Why do My people say, ‘We are free to roam; we will co
me to You no more’?"
Jeremiah 2:29 Why do you bring a case against
Me? You have all rebelled against
Me,” declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 2:28 But where are the gods you made for yourselves? Let them rise up in your ti
me of trouble and save you if they can; for your gods are as nu
merous as your cities, O Judah.
Jeremiah 2:27 say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’ and to a stone, ‘You gave
me birth.’ For they have turned their backs to
Me and not their faces, yet in the ti

Jeremiah 2:26 As the thief is asha
med when he is caught, so the house of Israel is disgraced. They, their kings, their officials, their priests, and their prophets

mel galloping here and there,"
Jeremiah 2:22 Although you wash with lye and use an abundance of soap, the stain of your guilt is still before
Me,” declares the Lord GOD."
Jeremiah 2:21 I had planted you like a choice vine from the very best seed. How could you turn yourself before
Me into a rotten, wild vine?
Jeremiah 2:19 Your own evil will discipline you; your own apostasies will reprimand you. Consider and realize how evil and bitter it is for you to forsake the LORD your God and to have no fear of

Jeremiah 2:8 The priests did not ask, ‘Where is the LORD?’ The experts in the law no longer knew
Me, and the leaders rebelled against
Me. The prophets prophesied by Baal and followed useless idols."
Jeremiah 2:7 I brought you into a fertile land to eat its fruit and bounty, but you ca

me for all: There is a common fate for the righteous and the wicked, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. As it is for the good, so it is for the sinner; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow.
Ecclesiastes 8:17 I saw every work of God, and that a man is unable to comprehend the work that is done under the sun. Despite his efforts to search it out, he cannot find its
meaning; even if the wise man claims to know, he is unable to comprehend.
Ecclesiastes 8:15 So I com
mended the enjoy
ment of life, because there is nothing better for a man under the sun than to eat and drink and be
merry. For this joy will accompany him in his labor during the days of his life that God gives him under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 8:14 There is a futility that is done on the earth: There are righteous
men who get what the actions of the wicked deserve, and there are wicked
men who get what the actions of the righteous deserve. I say that this too is futile.
Ecclesiastes 8:12 Although a sinner does evil a hundred ti
mes and still lives long, yet I also know that it will go well with those who fear God, who are reverent in His presence.
Ecclesiastes 8:11 When the sentence for a cri
me is not speedily executed, the hearts of
men beco
me fully set on doing evil.
Ecclesiastes 8:9 All this I have seen, applying my mind to every deed that is done under the sun; there is a ti
me when one man lords it over another to his own detri
ment.
Ecclesiastes 8:8 As no man has power over the wind to contain it, so no one has authority over his day of death. As no one can be discharged in warti
me, so wickedness will not release those who practice it.
Ecclesiastes 8:7 Since no one knows what will happen, who can tell him what is to co
me?
Ecclesiastes 8:6 For there is a right ti
me and procedure to every purpose, though a man’s misery weighs heavily upon him."
Ecclesiastes 8:5 Whoever keeps his command will co
me to no harm, and a wise heart knows the right ti
me and procedure.
Ecclesiastes 8:4 For the king’s word is supre
me, and who can say to him, “What are you doing?”"
Ecclesiastes 7:29 Only this have I found: I have discovered that God made
men upright, but they have sought out many sche
mes.”"
Ecclesiastes 7:23 All this I tested by wisdom, saying, “I resolve to be wise.” But it was beyond
me."
Ecclesiastes 7:22 For you know in your heart that many ti
mes you yourself have cursed others.
Ecclesiastes 7:17 Do not be excessively wicked, and do not be a fool. Why should you die before your ti
me?
Ecclesiastes 7:14 In the day of prosperity, be joyful, but in the day of adversity, consider this: God has made one of these along with the other, so that a man cannot discover anything that will co
me after him.
Ecclesiastes 7:1 A good na
me is better than fine perfu
me, and one’s day of death is better than his day of birth."
Ecclesiastes 6:12 For who knows what is good for a man during the few days in which he passes through his fleeting life like a shadow? Who can tell a man what will co
me after him under the sun?
Ecclesiastes 6:10 Whatever exists was na
med long ago, and what happens to a man is foreknown; but he cannot contend with one stronger than he.
Ecclesiastes 6:8 What advantage, then, has the wise man over the fool? What gain co
mes to the poor man who knows how to conduct himself before others?
Ecclesiastes 6:6 even if he lives a thousand years twice over but fails to enjoy his prosperity. Do not all go to the sa
me place?
Ecclesiastes 6:4 For a stillborn child enters in futility and departs in darkness, and his na
me is shrouded in obscurity.
Ecclesiastes 5:15 As a man ca
me from his mother’s womb, so he will depart again, naked as he arrived. He takes nothing for his labor to carry in his hands."
Ecclesiastes 5:11 When good things increase, so do those who consu
me them; what then is the profit to the owner, except to behold them with his eyes?
Ecclesiastes 5:10 He who loves money is never satisfied by money, and he who loves wealth is never satisfied by inco
me. This too is futile.
Ecclesiastes 5:6 Do not let your mouth cause your flesh to sin, and do not tell the
messenger that your vow was a mistake. Why should God be angry with your words and destroy the work of your hands?
Ecclesiastes 5:3 As a dream co
mes through many cares, so the speech of a fool co
mes with many words.
Ecclesiastes 4:16 There is no limit to all the people who were before them. Yet the successor will not be celebrated by those who co
me even later. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
Ecclesiastes 4:14 For the youth has co
me from the prison to the kingship, though he was born poor in his own kingdom.
Ecclesiastes 4:8 There is a man all alone, without even a son or brother. And though there is no end to his labor, his eyes are still not content with his wealth: “For whom do I toil and bereave my soul of enjoy
ment?” This too is futile—a miserable task."
Ecclesiastes 3:22 I have seen that there is nothing better for a man than to enjoy his work, because that is his lot. For who can bring him to see what will co
me after him?
Ecclesiastes 3:19 For the fates of both
men and beasts are the sa
me: As one dies, so dies the other—they all have the sa
me breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since everything is futile."
Ecclesiastes 3:18 I said to myself, “As for the sons of
men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts.”"
Ecclesiastes 3:17 I said in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked, since there is a ti
me for every activity and every deed.”"
Ecclesiastes 3:16 Furthermore, I saw under the sun that in the place of judg
ment there is wickedness, and in the place of righteousness there is wickedness.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its ti
me. He has also set eternity in the hearts of
men, yet they cannot fathom the work that God has done from beginning to end.
Ecclesiastes 3:10 I have seen the burden that God has laid upon the sons of
men to occupy them.
Ecclesiastes 3:8 a ti
me to love and a ti
me to hate, a ti
me for war and a ti
me for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:7 a ti
me to tear and a ti
me to
mend, a ti
me to be silent and a ti
me to speak,
Ecclesiastes 3:6 a ti
me to search and a ti
me to count as lost, a ti
me to keep and a ti
me to discard,
Ecclesiastes 3:5 a ti
me to cast away stones and a ti
me to gather stones together, a ti
me to embrace and a ti
me to refrain from embracing,
Ecclesiastes 3:4 a ti
me to weep and a ti
me to laugh, a ti
me to mourn and a ti
me to dance,
Ecclesiastes 3:3 a ti
me to kill and a ti
me to heal, a ti
me to break down and a ti
me to build,
Ecclesiastes 3:2 a ti
me to be born and a ti
me to die, a ti
me to plant and a ti
me to uproot,
Ecclesiastes 3:1 To everything there is a season, and a ti
me for every purpose under heaven:
Ecclesiastes 2:18 I hated all for which I had toiled under the sun, because I must leave it to the man who co
mes after
me.
Ecclesiastes 2:17 So I hated life, because the work that is done under the sun was grievous to
me. For everything is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
Ecclesiastes 2:16 For there is no lasting re
membrance of the wise, just as with the fool, seeing that both will be forgotten in the days to co
me. Alas, the wise man will die just like the fool!
Ecclesiastes 2:15 So I said to myself, “The fate of the fool will also befall
me. What then have I gained by being wise?” And I said to myself that this too is futile."
Ecclesiastes 2:14 The wise man has eyes in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. Yet I also ca
me to realize that one fate overco
mes them both.
Ecclesiastes 2:9 So I beca
me great and surpassed all in Jerusalem who had preceded
me; and my wisdom remained with
me.
Ecclesiastes 2:8 and I accumulated for myself silver and gold and the treasure of kings and provinces. I gathered to myself male and female singers, and the delights of the sons of
men—many concubines."
Ecclesiastes 2:7 I acquired
menservants and maidservants, and servants were born in my house. I also owned more herds and flocks than anyone in Jerusalem before
me,
Ecclesiastes 2:3 I sought to cheer my body with wine and to embrace folly—my mind still guiding
me with wisdom—until I could see what was worthwhile for
men to do under heaven during the few days of their lives."
Ecclesiastes 2:1 I said to myself, “Co
me now, I will test you with pleasure; enjoy what is good!” But it proved to be futile."
Ecclesiastes 1:18 For with much wisdom co
mes much sorrow, and as knowledge grows, grief increases.
Ecclesiastes 1:16 I said to myself, “Behold, I have grown and increased in wisdom beyond all those before
me who were over Jerusalem, and my mind has observed a wealth of wisdom and knowledge.”"
Ecclesiastes 1:13 And I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven. What a heavy burden God has laid upon the sons of
men to occupy them!
Ecclesiastes 1:11 There is no re
membrance of those who ca
me before, and those yet to co
me will not be re
membered by those who follow after.

Job 42:10 After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his prosperity and doubled his for
mer possessions.
Job 42:8 So now, take seven bulls and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and sacrifice a burnt offering for yourselves. Then My servant Job will pray for you, for I will accept his prayer and not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken accurately about
Me, as My servant Job has.”"
Job 42:7 After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and your two friends. For you have not spoken about
Me accurately, as My servant Job has."
Job 42:4 You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform
Me.’"
Job 42:3 You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for
me to know."
Job 41:31 He makes the depths seethe like a cauldron; he makes the sea like a jar of oint
ment.
Job 41:28 No arrow can make him flee; slingstones beco
me like chaff to him.
Job 41:21 His breath sets coals ablaze, and fla
mes pour from his mouth.
Job 41:14 Who can open his jaws, ringed by his fearso
me teeth?
Job 41:11 Who has given to
Me that I should repay him? Everything under heaven is Mine.
Job 41:10 No one is so fierce as to rouse Leviathan. Then who is able to stand against
Me?
Job 41:8 If you lay a hand on him, you will re
member the battle and never repeat it!
Job 41:6 Will traders barter for him or divide him among the
merchants?
Job 41:3 Will he beg you for
mercy or speak to you softly?
Job 40:8 Would you really annul My justice? Would you condemn
Me to justify yourself?
Job 40:7 “Now brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall inform
Me."
Job 39:24 Trembling with excite
ment, he devours the distance; he cannot stand still when the ram’s horn sounds."
Job 39:6 I made the wilderness his ho
me and the salt flats his dwelling.
Job 39:2 Can you count the months they are pregnant? Do you know the ti
me they give birth?
Job 38:30 when the waters beco
me hard as stone and the surface of the deep is frozen?
Job 38:29 From whose womb does the ice e
merge? Who gives birth to the frost from heaven,
Job 38:23 which I hold in reserve for ti
mes of trouble, for the day of war and battle?
Job 38:20 so you can lead it back to its border? Do you know the paths to its ho
me?
Job 38:19 Where is the way to the ho
me of light? Do you know where darkness resides,
Job 38:18 Have you surveyed the extent of the earth? Tell
Me, if you know all this.
Job 38:14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its hills stand out like the folds of a gar
ment.
Job 38:11 and I declared: ‘You may co
me this far, but no farther; here your proud waves must stop’?"
Job 38:9 when I made the clouds its gar
ment and thick darkness its blanket,
Job 38:5 Who fixed its
measure
ments? Surely you know! Or who stretched a
measuring line across it?
Job 38:4 Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell
Me, if you have understanding.
Job 38:3 Now brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall inform
Me.
Job 37:24 Therefore,
men fear Him, for He is not partial to the wise in heart.”"
Job 37:22 Out of the north He co
mes in golden splendor; aweso
me majesty surrounds Him.
Job 37:13 Whether for punish
ment or for His land, He accomplishes this in His loving devotion.
Job 37:10 By the breath of God the ice is for
med and the watery expanses are frozen.
Job 37:9 The tempest co
mes from its chamber, and the cold from the driving north winds.
Job 37:7 He seals up the hand of every man, so that all
men may know His work.
Job 37:4 Then there co
mes a roaring sound; He thunders with His majestic voice. He does not restrain the lightning when His voice resounds.
Job 37:2 Listen closely to the thunder of His voice and the rumbling that co
mes from His mouth.
Job 36:25 All mankind has seen it;
men behold it from afar.
Job 36:24 Re
member to magnify His work, which
men have praised in song.
Job 36:20 Do not long for the night, when people vanish from their ho
mes.
Job 36:17 But now you are laden with the judg
ment due the wicked; judg
ment and justice have seized you.
Job 36:13 The godless in heart harbor resent
ment; even when He binds them, they do not cry for help.
Job 36:8 And if
men are bound with chains, caught in cords of affliction,
Job 36:2 “Bear with
me a little longer, and I will show you that there is more to be said on God’s behalf."
Job 35:12 There they cry out, but He does not answer, because of the pride of evil
men.
Job 35:9 Men cry out under great oppression; they plead for relief from the arm of the mighty.
Job 35:3 For you ask, ‘What does it profit
me, and what benefit do I gain apart from sin?’"
Job 34:34 Men of understanding will declare to
me, and the wise
men who hear
me will say:
Job 34:33 Should God repay you on your own terms when you have disavowed His? You must choose, not I; so tell
me what you know.
Job 34:32 Teach
me what I cannot see; if I have done wrong, I will not do it again.’"
Job 34:31 Suppose so
meone says to God, ‘I have endured my punish
ment; I will offend no more."
Job 34:30 that godless
men should not rule or lay snares for the people.
Job 34:28 They caused the cry of the poor to co
me before Him, and He heard the outcry of the afflicted.
Job 34:23 For God need not examine a man further or have him approach for judg
ment.
Job 34:10 Therefore listen to
me, O
men of understanding. Far be it from God to do wrong, and from the Almighty to act unjustly.
Job 34:8 He keeps company with evildoers and walks with wicked
men.
Job 34:5 For Job has declared, ‘I am righteous, yet God has deprived
me of justice."
Job 34:2 “Hear my words, O wise
men; give ear to
me, O
men of learning."
Job 33:33 But if not, then listen to
me; be quiet, and I will teach you wisdom.”"
Job 33:32 But if you have so
mething to say, answer
me; speak up, for I would like to vindicate you.
Job 33:31 Pay attention, Job, and listen to
me; be silent, and I will speak.
Job 33:29 Behold, all these things God does to a man, two or even three ti
mes,
Job 33:28 He redee
med my soul from going down to the Pit, and I will live to see the light.’"
Job 33:27 Then he sings before
men with these words: ‘I have sinned and perverted what was right; yet I did not get what I deserved."
Job 33:23 Yet if there is a
messenger on his side, one
mediator in a thousand, to tell a man what is right for him,
Job 33:22 He draws near to the Pit, and his life to the
messengers of death.
Job 33:15 In a dream, in a vision in the night, when deep sleep falls upon
men as they slumber on their beds,
Job 33:10 Yet God finds occasions against
me; He counts
me as His enemy.
Job 33:9 ‘I am pure, without transgression; I am clean, with no iniquity in
me."
Job 33:7 Surely no fear of
me should terrify you; nor will my hand be heavy upon you.
Job 33:6 I am just like you before God; I was also for
med from clay.
Job 33:5 Refute
me if you can; prepare your case and confront
me.
Job 33:4 The Spirit of God has made
me, and the breath of the Almighty gives
me life.
Job 32:22 For I do not know how to flatter, or my Maker would remove
me in an instant.
Job 32:18 For I am full of words, and my spirit within
me compels
me.
Job 32:14 But Job has not directed his words against
me, and I will not answer him with your argu
ments.
Job 32:12 I paid you full attention. But no one proved Job wrong; not one of you rebutted his argu
ments.
Job 32:10 Therefore I say, ‘Listen to
me; I too will declare what I know.’"
Job 32:5 But when he saw that the three
men had no further reply, his anger was kindled.
Job 32:1 So these three
men stopped answering Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
Job 31:39 if I have devoured its produce without pay
ment or broken the spirit of its tenants,
Job 31:38 if my land cries out against
me and its furrows weep together,
Job 31:35 (Oh, that I had one to hear
me! Here is my signature. Let the Almighty answer
me; let my accuser compose an indict
ment.
Job 31:34 because I greatly feared the crowds and the contempt of the clans terrified
me, so that I kept silent and would not go outside—"
Job 31:31 if the
men of my house have not said, ‘Who is there who has not had his fill?’—"
Job 31:23 For calamity from God terrifies
me, and His splendor I cannot overpower.
Job 31:20 if his heart has not blessed
me for warming him with the fleece of my sheep,
Job 31:15 Did not He who made
me in the womb also make them? Did not the sa
me One form us in the womb?
Job 31:13 If I have rejected the cause of my manservant or maidservant when they made a complaint against
me,
Job 31:11 For that would be a heinous cri
me, an iniquity to be judged.
Job 31:10 then may my own wife grind grain for another, and may other
men sleep with her.
Job 31:6 let God weigh
me with honest scales, that He may know my integrity.
Job 31:3 Does not disaster co
me to the unjust and calamity to the workers of iniquity?
Job 31:2 For what is the allot
ment of God from above, or the heritage from the Almighty on high?
Job 30:29 I have beco
me a brother of jackals, a companion of ostriches.
Job 30:27 I am churning within and cannot rest; days of affliction confront
me.
Job 30:26 But when I hoped for good, evil ca
me; when I looked for light, darkness fell.
Job 30:23 Yes, I know that You will bring
me down to death, to the place appointed for all the living.
Job 30:22 You snatch
me up into the wind and drive
me before it; You toss
me about in the storm.
Job 30:21 You have ruthlessly turned on
me; You oppose
me with Your strong hand.
Job 30:20 I cry out to You for help, but You do not answer; when I stand up, You
merely look at
me.
Job 30:19 He throws
me into the mud, and I have beco
me like dust and ashes.
Job 30:18 With great force He grasps my gar
ment; He seizes
me by the collar of my tunic.
Job 30:16 And now my soul is poured out within
me; days of affliction grip
me.
Job 30:15 Terrors are turned loose against
me; they drive away my dignity as by the wind, and my prosperity has passed like a cloud.
Job 30:12 The rabble arises at my right; they lay snares for my feet and build siege ramps against
me.
Job 30:11 Because God has unstrung my bow and afflicted
me, they have cast off restraint in my presence.
Job 30:10 They abhor
me and keep far from
me; they do not hesitate to spit in my face.
Job 30:9 And now they mock
me in song; I have beco
me a byword among them.
Job 30:8 A senseless and na
meless brood, they were driven off the land.
Job 30:5 They were banished from among
men, shouted down like thieves,
Job 30:2 What use to
me was the strength of their hands, since their vigor had left them?
Job 30:1 “But now they mock
me,
men younger than I am, whose fathers I would have refused to entrust with my sheep dogs."
Job 29:23 They waited for
me as for rain and drank in my words like spring showers.
Job 29:21 Men listened to
me with expectation, waiting silently for my counsel.
Job 29:20 My glory is ever new within
me, and my bow is renewed in my hand.’"
Job 29:15 I served as eyes to the blind and as feet to the la
me.
Job 29:14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed
me; justice was my robe and my turban.
Job 29:13 The dying man blessed
me, and I made the widow’s heart sing for joy."
Job 29:11 For those who heard
me called
me blessed, and those who saw
me com
mended
me,
Job 29:8 the young
men saw
me and withdrew, and the old
men rose to their feet.
Job 29:6 when my steps were bathed in cream and the rock poured out for
me streams of oil!
Job 29:5 when the Almighty was still with
me and my children were around
me,
Job 29:4 when I was in my pri
me, when the friendship of God rested on my tent,
Job 29:2 “How I long for the months gone by, for the days when God watched over
me,"
Job 28:25 When God fixed the weight of the wind and
measured out the waters,
Job 28:20 From where then does wisdom co
me, and where does understanding dwell?
Job 28:18 Coral and quartz are unworthy of
mention; the price of wisdom is beyond rubies.
Job 28:14 The ocean depths say, ‘It is not in
me,’ while the sea declares, ‘It is not with
me.’"
Job 28:5 Food may co
me from the earth, but from below it is transfor
med as by fire.
Job 28:4 Far from human habitation he cuts a shaft in places forgotten by the foot of man. Far from
men he dangles and sways.
Job 28:2 Iron is taken from the earth, and copper is s

Job 27:22 It hurls itself against him without
mercy as he flees headlong from its power.
Job 27:10 Will he delight in the Almighty? Will he call upon God at all ti
mes?
Job 27:9 Will God hear his cry when distress co
mes upon him?
Job 27:6 I will cling to my righteousness and never let go. As long as I live, my conscience will not accuse
me.
Job 27:3 as long as my breath is still within
me and the breath of God remains in my nostrils,
Job 27:2 “As surely as God lives, who has deprived
me of justice—the Almighty, who has embittered my soul—"
Job 24:25 If this is not so, then who can prove
me a liar and reduce my words to nothing?”"
Job 24:24 They are exalted for a mo
ment, then they are gone; they are brought low and gathered up like all others; they are cut off like heads of grain.
Job 24:20 The womb forgets them; the worm feeds on them; they are re
membered no more. So injustice is like a broken tree.
Job 24:19 As drought and heat consu
me the
melting snow, so Sheol steals those who have sinned.
Job 24:15 The eye of the adulterer watches for twilight. Thinking, ‘No eye will see
me,’ he covers his face."
Job 24:12 From the city,
men groan, and the souls of the wounded cry out, yet God charges no one with wrongdoing.
Job 24:2 Men move boundary stones; they pasture stolen flocks.
Job 24:1 “Why does the Almighty not reserve ti
mes for judg
ment? Why may those who know Him never see His days?"
Job 23:16 God has made my heart faint; the Almighty has terrified
me.
Job 23:14 For He carries out His decree against
me, and He has many such plans.
Job 23:10 Yet He knows the way I have taken; when He has tested
me, I will co
me forth as gold.
♫ Job 23:6 Would He contend with
me in His great power? No, He would certainly take note of
me.
Job 23:4 I would plead my case before Him and fill my mouth with argu
ments.
Job 22:29 When
men are brought low and you say, ‘Lift them up!’ then He will save the lowly."
Job 22:21 Reconcile now and be at peace with Him; thereby good will co
me to you.
Job 22:20 ‘Surely our foes are destroyed, and fire has consu
med their excess.’"
Job 22:16 They were snatched away before their ti
me, and their foundations were swept away by a flood.
Job 22:15 Will you stay on the ancient path that wicked
men have trod?
Job 22:4 Is it for your reverence that He rebukes you and enters into judg
ment against you?
Job 22:3 Does it delight the Almighty that you are righteous? Does He profit if your ways are bla
meless?
Job 21:34 So how can you comfort
me with empty words? For your answers remain full of falsehood.”"
Job 21:27 Behold, I know your thoughts full well, the sche
mes by which you would wrong
me.
Job 21:19 It is said that God lays up one’s punish
ment for his children. Let God repay the man himself, so he will know it."
Job 21:17 How often is the lamp of the wicked put out? Does disaster co
me upon them? Does God, in His anger, apportion destruction?
Job 21:12 singing to the tambourine and lyre and making
merry at the sound of the flute.
Job 21:9 Their ho
mes are safe from fear; no rod of punish
ment from God is upon them.
Job 21:6 When I re
member, terror takes hold, and my body trembles in horror.
Job 21:5 Look at
me and be appalled; put your hand over your mouth.

me while I speak; then, after I have spoken, you may go on mocking.
Job 21:2 “Listen carefully to my words; let this be your consolation to
me."
Job 20:26 Total darkness is reserved for his treasures. A fire unfanned will consu
me him and devour what is left in his tent.
Job 20:25 It is drawn out of his back, the gleaming point from his liver. Terrors co
me over him.
Job 20:22 In the midst of his plenty, he will be distressed; the full force of misery will co
me upon him.
Job 20:21 Nothing is left for him to consu
me; thus his prosperity will not endure.
Job 20:5 the triumph of the wicked has been brief and the joy of the godless mo
mentary?
Job 20:3 I have heard a rebuke that insults
me, and my understanding prompts a reply.
Job 20:2 “So my anxious thoughts compel
me to answer, because of the turmoil within
me."
Job 19:29 then you should fear the sword yourselves, because wrath brings punish
ment by the sword, so that you may know there is a judg

Job 19:27 I will see Him for myself; my eyes will behold Him, and not as a stranger. How my heart yearns within
me!
♫ Job 19:25 But I know that my Redee
mer lives, and in the end He will stand upon the earth.
♫ Job 19:22 Why do you persecute
me as God does? Will you never get enough of my flesh?
Job 19:21 Have pity on
me, my friends, have pity, for the hand of God has struck
me.
Job 19:19 All my best friends despise
me, and those I love have turned against
me.
Job 19:18 Even little boys scorn
me; when I appear, they deride
me.
Job 19:17 My breath is repulsive to my wife, and I am loathso
me to my own family.
Job 19:15 My guests and maidservants count
me as a stranger; I am a foreigner in their sight.
Job 19:14 My kins
men have failed
me, and my friends have forgotten
me.
Job 19:13 He has removed my brothers from
me; my acquaintances have abandoned
me.
Job 19:12 His troops advance together; they construct a ramp against
me and encamp around my tent.
Job 19:11 His anger burns against
me, and He counts
me among His enemies.
Job 19:10 He tears
me down on every side until I am gone; He uproots my hope like a tree.
Job 19:9 He has stripped
me of my honor and removed the crown from my head.
Job 19:6 then understand that it is God who has wronged
me and drawn His net around
me.
Job 19:5 If indeed you would exalt yourselves above
me and use my disgrace against
me,
Job 19:4 Even if I have truly gone astray, my error concerns
me alone.
Job 19:3 Ten ti
mes now you have reproached
me; you sha
melessly mistreat
me.
Job 19:2 “How long will you tor
ment
me and crush
me with your words?"
Job 18:17 The
memory of him perishes from the earth, and he has no na
me in the land.
Job 18:8 For his own feet lead him into a net, and he wanders into its
mesh.
Job 18:7 His vigorous stride is shortened, and his own sche
mes trip him up.
Job 18:5 Indeed, the lamp of the wicked is extinguished; the fla
me of his fire does not glow.
Job 18:2 “How long until you end these speeches? Show so
me sense, and then we can talk."
Job 17:15 where then is my hope? Who can see any hope for
me?
Job 17:13 If I look for Sheol as my ho
me, if I spread out my bed in darkness,
Job 17:10 But co
me back and try again, all of you. For I will not find a wise man among you.
Job 17:6 He has made
me a byword among the people, a man in whose face they spit.
Job 17:3 Give
me, I pray, the pledge You demand. Who else will be my guarantor?
Job 17:2 Surely mockers surround
me, and my eyes must gaze at their rebellion.
Job 17:1 “My spirit is broken; my days are extinguished; the grave awaits
me."
Job 16:14 He breaks
me with wound upon wound; He rushes
me like a mighty warrior.
Job 16:13 His archers surround
me. He pierces my kidneys without
mercy and spills my gall on the ground.
Job 16:12 I was at ease, but He shattered
me; He seized
me by the neck and crushed
me. He has set
me up as His target;
Job 16:11 God has delivered
me to unjust
men; He has thrown
me to the clutches of the wicked.
Job 16:10 They open their mouths against
me and strike my cheeks with contempt; they join together against
me.
Job 16:9 His anger has torn
me and opposed
me; He gnashes His teeth at
me. My adversary pierces
me with His eyes.
Job 16:8 You have bound
me, and it has beco
me a witness; my frailty rises up and testifies against
me.
Job 16:7 Surely He has now exhausted
me; You have devastated all my family.
Job 15:34 For the company of the godless will be barren, and fire will consu
me the tents of bribery.
Job 15:32 It will be paid in full before his ti
me, and his branch will not flourish.
Job 15:30 He will not escape from the darkness; the fla
me will wither his shoots, and the breath of God’s mouth will carry him away."
Job 15:28 he will dwell in ruined cities, in abandoned houses destined to beco
me rubble.
Job 15:18 what was declared by wise
men and was not concealed from their fathers,
Job 15:17 Listen to
me and I will inform you. I will describe what I have seen,
Job 15:10 Both the gray-haired and the aged are on our side—
men much older than your father."
Job 15:4 But you even undermine the fear of God and hinder
meditation before Him.
Job 14:14 When a man dies, will he live again? All the days of my hard service I will wait, until my renewal co
mes.
Job 14:13 If only You would hide
me in Sheol and conceal
me until Your anger has passed! If only You would appoint a ti
me for
me and then re
member
me!
Job 14:11 As water disappears from the sea and a river beco
mes parched and dry,
Job 14:3 Do You open Your eyes to one like this? Will You bring him into judg

Job 14:2 Like a flower, he co
mes forth, then withers away; like a fleeting shadow, he does not endure.
Job 13:28 So man wastes away like so
mething rotten, like a moth-eaten gar
ment.
Job 13:26 For You record bitter accusations against
me and bequeath to
me the iniquities of my youth.
Job 13:24 Why do You hide Your face and consider
me as Your enemy?
Job 13:23 How many are my iniquities and sins? Reveal to
me my transgression and sin.
Job 13:22 Then call
me, and I will answer, or let
me speak, and You can reply.
Job 13:21 Withdraw Your hand from
me, and do not let Your terror frighten
me.
Job 13:20 Only grant these two things to
me, so that I need not hide from You:
Job 13:19 Can anyone indict
me? If so, I will be silent and die.
Job 13:15 Though He slay
me, I will hope in Him. I will still defend my ways to His face.
Job 13:13 Be silent, and I will speak. Then let co
me to
me what may.
Job 13:6 Hear now my argu
ment, and listen to the plea of my lips.
Job 13:4 You, however, s
mear with lies; you are all worthless physicians.
Job 12:20 He deprives the trusted of speech and takes away the discern
ment of elders.
Job 12:12 Wisdom is found with the elderly, and understanding co
mes with long life.
Job 11:15 then indeed you will lift up your face without sha
me; you will stand firm and unafraid.
Job 11:12 But a witless man can no more beco
me wise than the colt of a wild donkey can be born a man!
Job 11:11 Surely He knows the deceit of
men. If He sees iniquity, does He not take note?
Job 11:10 If He co
mes along to imprison you, or convenes a court, who can stop Him?
Job 11:9 Their
measure is longer than the earth and wider than the sea.
Job 10:20 Are my days not few? Withdraw from
me, that I may have a little comfort,
Job 10:19 If only I had never co
me to be, but had been carried from the womb to the grave.
Job 10:18 Why then did You bring
me from the womb? Oh, that I had died, and no eye had seen
me!
Job 10:17 You produce new witnesses against
me and multiply Your anger toward
me. Hardships assault
me in wave after wave.
Job 10:16 Should I hold my head high, You would hunt
me like a lion, and again display Your power against
me.
Job 10:15 If I am guilty, woe to
me! And even if I am righteous, I cannot lift my head. I am full of sha
me and aware of my affliction.
Job 10:14 If I sinned, You would take note, and would not acquit
me of my iniquity.
Job 10:12 You have granted
me life and loving devotion, and Your care has preserved my spirit.
Job 10:11 You clothed
me with skin and flesh, and knit
me together with bones and sinews.
Job 10:10 Did You not pour
me out like milk, and curdle
me like cheese?
Job 10:9 Please re
member that You molded
me like clay. Would You now return
me to dust?
Job 10:8 Your hands shaped
me and altogether for
med
me. Would You now turn and destroy
me?
Job 10:3 Does it please You to oppress
me, to reject the work of Your hands and favor the sche
mes of the wicked?
Job 10:2 I will say to God: Do not condemn
me! Let
me know why You prosecute
me.
Job 9:34 Let Him remove His rod from
me, so that His terror will no longer frighten
me.
Job 9:33 Nor is there a
mediator between us, to lay his hand upon us both.
Job 9:32 For He is not a man like
me, that I can answer Him, that we can take each other to court.
Job 9:31 then You would plunge
me into the pit, and even my own clothes would despise
me.
Job 9:28 I would still dread all my sufferings; I know that You will not acquit
me.
Job 9:22 It is all the sa
me, and so I say, ‘He destroys both the bla
meless and the wicked.’"
Job 9:21 Though I am bla
meless, I have no concern for myself; I despise my own life.
Job 9:20 Even if I were righteous, my mouth would condemn
me; if I were bla
meless, it would declare
me guilty.
Job 9:18 He does not let
me catch my breath, but overwhelms
me with bitterness.
Job 9:17 For He would crush
me with a tempest and multiply my wounds without cause.
Job 9:16 If I summoned Him and He answered
me, I do not believe He would listen to my voice.
Job 9:15 For even if I were right, I could not answer. I could only beg my Judge for
mercy.
Job 9:14 How then can I answer Him or choose my argu
ments against Him?
Job 9:11 Were He to pass by
me, I would not see Him; were He to move, I would not recognize Him.
Job 9:3 If one wished to contend with God, he could not answer Him one ti
me out of a thousand.
Job 8:22 Your enemies will be clothed in sha
me, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”"
Job 8:20 Behold, God does not reject the bla
meless, nor will He strengthen the hand of evildoers.
Job 8:17 His roots wrap around the rock heap; he looks for a ho
me among the stones.
Job 8:5 But if you would earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for
mercy,
Job 7:21 Why do You not pardon my transgression and take away my iniquity? For soon I will lie down in the dust; You will seek
me, but I will be no more.”"
Job 7:20 If I have sinned, what have I done to You, O watcher of mankind? Why have You made
me Your target, so that I am a burden to You?
Job 7:19 Will You never look away from
me, or leave
me alone to swallow my spittle?
Job 7:18 that You attend to him every morning, and test him every mo
ment?
Job 7:16 I loathe my life! I would not live forever. Leave
me alone, for my days are but a breath.
Job 7:14 then You frighten
me with dreams and terrify
me with visions,
Job 7:13 When I think my bed will comfort
me and my couch will ease my complaint,
Job 7:12 Am I the sea, or the monster of the deep, that You must keep
me under guard?
Job 7:10 He never returns to his house; his place re
members him no more.
Job 7:9 As a cloud vanishes and is gone, so he who goes down to Sheol does not co
me back up.
Job 7:8 The eye that beholds
me will no longer see
me. You will look for
me, but I will be no more.
Job 7:7 Re
member that my life is but a breath. My eyes will never again see happiness.
Job 7:6 My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle; they co
me to an end without hope."
Job 7:3 So I am allotted months of futility, and nights of misery are appointed
me.
Job 6:28 But now, please look at
me. Would I lie to your face?
Job 6:25 How painful are honest words! But what does your argu
ment prove?
Job 6:24 Teach
me, and I will be silent. Help
me understand how I have erred.
Job 6:23 deliver
me from the hand of the enemy; redeem
me from the grasp of the ruthless’?"
Job 6:22 Have I ever said, ‘Give
me so
mething; offer
me a bribe from your wealth;"
Job 6:20 They are confounded because they had hoped; their arrival brings disappoint
ment.
Job 6:16 darkened because of the ice and the inflow of
melting snow,
Job 6:13 Is there any help within
me now that success is driven from
me?
Job 6:10 It still brings
me comfort, and joy through unrelenting pain, that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
Job 6:9 that God would be willing to crush
me, to unleash His hand and cut
me off!
Job 6:7 My soul refuses to touch them; they are loathso
me food to
me.
Job 6:4 For the arrows of the Almighty have pierced
me; my spirit drinks in their poison; the terrors of God are arrayed against
me.
Job 5:26 You will co
me to the grave in full vigor, like a sheaf of grain gathered in season.
Job 5:24 You will know that your tent is secure, and find nothing amiss when inspecting your ho
me.
Job 5:21 You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and will not fear havoc when it co
mes.
Job 5:12 He thwarts the sche
mes of the crafty, so that their hands find no success.
Job 5:5 The hungry consu
me his harvest, taking it even from the thorns, and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
Job 5:2 For resent
ment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple.
Job 4:16 It stood still, but I could not discern its appearance; a form loo
med before my eyes, and I heard a whispering voice:
Job 4:14 fear and trembling ca
me over
me and made all my bones shudder.
Job 4:13 In disquieting visions in the night, when deep sleep falls on
men,
Job 4:12 Now a word ca
me to
me secretly; my ears caught a whisper of it.
Job 4:9 By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of His anger they are consu
med.
Job 4:8 As I have observed, those who plow iniquity and those who sow trouble reap the sa
me.
Job 4:5 But now trouble has co
me upon you, and you are weary. It strikes you, and you are dismayed.
Job 3:26 I am not at ease or quiet; I have no rest, for trouble has co
me.”"
Job 3:25 For the thing I feared has overtaken
me, and what I dreaded has befallen
me.
Job 3:24 I sigh when food is put before
me, and my groans pour out like water.
Job 3:21 who long for death that does not co
me, and search for it like hidden treasure,
Job 3:12 Why were there knees to receive
me, and breasts that I should be nursed?
Job 3:11 Why did I not perish at birth; why did I not die as I ca
me from the womb?
Job 3:7 Behold, may that night be barren; may no joyful voice co
me into it.
Job 2:11 Now when Job’s three friends—Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite—heard about all this adversity that had co
me upon him, each of them ca
me from his ho
me, and they
met together to go and sympathize with Job and comfort him."
Job 2:3 Then the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one on earth like him, a man who is bla
meless and upright, who fears God and shuns evil. He still retains his integrity, even though you incited
Me against him to ruin him without cause.”"
Job 2:2 “Where have you co
me from?” said the LORD to Satan. “From roaming through the earth,” he replied, “and walking back and forth in it.”"
Job 2:1 On another day the sons of God ca
me to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also ca
me with them to present himself before Him.
Job 1:21 saying: “Naked I ca
me from my mother’s womb, and naked I will return. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the na
me of the LORD.”"
Job 1:18 While he was still speaking, another
messenger ca
me and reported: “Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house,"
Job 1:17 While he was still speaking, another
messenger ca
me and reported: “The Chaldeans for
med three bands, raided the ca
mels, and took them away. They put the servants to the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you!”"
Job 1:16 While he was still speaking, another
messenger ca
me and reported: “The fire of God fell from heaven. It burned and consu
med the sheep and the servants, and I alone have escaped to tell you!”"
Job 1:14 a
messenger ca
me and reported to Job: “While the oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing nearby,"
Job 1:8 Then the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one on earth like him, a man who is bla
meless and upright, who fears God and shuns evil.”"
Job 1:7 “Where have you co
me from?” said the LORD to Satan. “From roaming through the earth,” he replied, “and walking back and forth in it.”"
Job 1:6 One day the sons of God ca
me to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also ca
me with them.
Job 1:4 Job’s sons would take turns holding feasts in their ho
mes, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them."
Job 1:3 and he owned 7,000 sheep, 3,000 ca
mels, 500 yoke of oxen, 500 female donkeys, and a very large number of servants. Job was the greatest man of all the people of the East.
Job 1:1 There was a man in the land of Uz whose na
me was Job. And this man was bla
meless and upright, fearing God and shunning evil.
Esther 10:3 For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Xerxes, preeminent among the Jews and highly favored by his many kins
men, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his country
men.
Esther 10:2 And all of Mordecai’s powerful and magnificent accomplish
ments, together with the full account of the greatness to which the king had raised him, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of
Media and Persia?"
Esther 9:32 So Esther’s decree confir
med these regulations about Purim, which were written into the record."
Esther 9:31 in order to confirm these days of Purim at their appointed ti
me, just as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther had established them and had committed themselves and their descendants to the ti
mes of fasting and la
mentation.
Esther 9:28 These days should be re
membered and celebrated by every generation, family, province, and city, so that these days of Purim should not fail to be observed among the Jews, nor should the
memory of them fade from their descendants.
Esther 9:27 the Jews bound themselves to establish the custom that they and their descendants and all who join them should not fail to celebrate these two days at the appointed ti
me each and every year, according to their regulation.
Esther 9:25 But when it ca
me before the king, he commanded by letter that the wicked sche
me which Haman had devised against the Jews should co
me back upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
Esther 9:24 For Haman son of Ham
medatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to destroy them and had cast the Pur (that is, the lot) to crush and destroy them.
Esther 9:15 On the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, the Jews in Susa ca
me together again and put to death three hundred
men there, but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.
Esther 9:12 who said to Queen Esther, “In the citadel of Susa the Jews have killed and destroyed five hundred
men, including Haman’s ten sons. What have they done in the rest of the royal provinces? Now what is your petition? It will be given to you. And what further do you request? It will be fulfilled.”"
Esther 9:10 They killed these ten sons of Haman son of Ham
medatha, the enemy of the Jews, but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.
Esther 9:6 In the citadel of Susa, the Jews killed and destroyed five hundred
men,
Esther 9:4 For Mordecai exercised great power in the palace, and his fa
me spread throughout the provinces as he beca
me more and more powerful.
Esther 8:17 In every province and every city, wherever the king’s edict and decree reached, there was joy and gladness among the Jews, with feasting and celebrating. And many of the people of the land themselves beca
me Jews, because the fear of the Jews had fallen upon them."
Esther 8:16 For the Jews it was a ti
me of light and gladness, of joy and honor.
Esther 8:15 Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal gar
ments of blue and white, with a large gold crown and a purple robe of fine linen. And the city of Susa shouted and rejoiced.
Esther 8:11 By these letters the king permitted the Jews in each and every city the right to assemble and defend themselves, to destroy, kill, and annihilate all the forces of any people or province hostile to them, including wo
men and children, and to plunder their possessions.
Esther 8:10 Mordecai wrote in the na
me of King Xerxes and sealed it with the royal signet ring. He sent the docu
ments by mounted couriers riding on swift horses bred from the royal mares.
Esther 8:8 Now you may write in the king’s na
me as you please regarding the Jews, and seal it with the royal signet ring. For a decree that is written in the na
me of the king and sealed with the royal signet ring cannot be revoked.”"
Esther 8:5 “If it pleases the king,” she said, “and if I have found favor in his sight, and the matter seems proper to the king, and I am pleasing in his sight, may an order be written to revoke the letters that the scheming Haman son of Ham
medatha, the Agagite, wrote to destroy the Jews in all the king’s provinces."
Esther 8:3 And once again, Esther addressed the king. She fell at his feet weeping and begged him to revoke the evil sche
me of Haman the Agagite, which he had devised against the Jews.
Esther 8:1 That sa
me day King Xerxes awarded Queen Esther the estate of Haman, the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai entered the king’s presence because Esther had revealed his relation to her."
Esther 7:8 Just as the king returned from the palace garden to the banquet hall, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was reclining. The king exclai
med, “Would he actually assault the queen while I am in the palace?” As soon as the words had left the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face."
Esther 7:5 Then King Xerxes spoke up and asked Queen Esther, “Who is this, and where is the one who would devise such a sche
me?”"
Esther 7:4 For my people and I have been sold out to destruction, death, and annihilation. If we had
merely been sold as
menservants and maidservants, I would have remained silent, because no such distress would justify burdening the king.”"
Esther 7:3 Queen Esther replied, “If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, grant
me my life as my petition, and the lives of my people as my request."
Esther 6:12 Then Mordecai returned to the king’s gate. But Haman rushed ho
me, with his head covered in grief."
Esther 6:6 Haman entered, and the king asked him, “What should be done for the man whom the king is delighted to honor?” Now Haman thought to himself, “Whom would the king be delighted to honor more than
me?”"
Esther 5:13 Yet none of this satisfies
me as long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.”"
Esther 5:12 “What is more,” Haman added, “Queen Esther invited no one but
me to join the king at the banquet she prepared, and I am invited back tomorrow along with the king."
Esther 5:10 Nevertheless, Haman restrained himself and went ho
me. And calling for his friends and his wife Zeresh,
Esther 5:8 If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and fulfill my request, may the king and Haman co
me tomorrow to the banquet I will prepare for them. Then I will answer the king’s question.”"
Esther 5:4 “If it pleases the king,” Esther replied, “may the king and Haman co
me today to the banquet I have prepared for the king.”"
Esther 4:16 “Go and assemble all the Jews who can be found in Susa, and fast for
me. Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day, and I and my maidens will fast as you do. After that, I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. And if I perish, I perish!”"
Esther 4:14 For if you remain silent at this ti
me, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows if perhaps you have co
me to the kingdom for such a ti
me as this?”"
Esther 4:4 When Esther’s maidens and eunuchs ca
me and told her about Mordecai, the queen was overco
me with distress. She sent clothes for Mordecai to wear instead of his sackcloth, but he would not accept them."
Esther 4:3 In every province to which the king’s command and edict ca
me, there was great mourning among the Jews. They fasted, wept, and la
mented, and many lay in sackcloth and ashes."
Esther 3:13 And the letters were sent by couriers to each of the royal provinces with the order to destroy, kill, and annihilate all the Jews—young and old, wo
men and children—and to plunder their possessions on a single day, the thirteenth day of Adar, the twelfth month."
Esther 3:12 On the thirteenth day of the first month, the royal scribes were summoned and the order was written exactly as Haman commanded the royal satraps, the governors of each province, and the officials of each people, in the script of each province and the language of every people. It was written in the na
me of King Xerxes and sealed with the royal signet ring.
Esther 3:10 So the king removed the signet ring from his finger and gave it to Haman son of Ham
medatha, the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews.
Esther 3:8 Then Haman infor
med King Xerxes, “There is a certain people scattered and dispersed among the peoples of every province of your kingdom. Their laws are different from everyone else’s, and they do not obey the king’s laws. So it is not in the king’s best interest to tolerate them."
Esther 3:1 After these events, King Xerxes honored Haman son of Ham
medatha, the Agagite, elevating him to a position above all the princes who were with him.
Esther 2:22 When Mordecai learned of the plot, he reported it to Queen Esther, and she infor
med the king on Mordecai’s behalf."
Esther 2:19 When the virgins were assembled a second ti
me, Mordecai was sitting at the king’s gate."
Esther 2:18 Then the king held a great banquet, Esther’s banquet, for all his officials and servants. He proclai
med a tax holiday in the provinces and gave gifts worthy of the king’s bounty."
Esther 2:17 And the king loved Esther more than all the other wo
men, and she found grace and favor in his sight more than all of the other virgins. So he placed the royal crown upon her head and made her queen in place of Vashti.
Esther 2:14 She would go there in the evening, and in the morning she would return to a second harem under the care of Shaashgaz, the king’s eunuch in charge of the concubines. She would not return to the king unless he delighted in her and summoned her by na
me."
Esther 2:12 In the twelve months before her turn to go to King Xerxes, the harem regulation required each young woman to receive beauty treat
ments with oil of myrrh for six months, and then with perfu
mes and cos
metics for another six months.
Esther 2:9 And the young woman pleased him and obtained his favor, so he quickly provided her with beauty treat
ments and the special diet. He assigned to her seven select maidservants from the palace and transferred her with them to the best place in the harem.
Esther 2:8 When the king’s command and edict had been proclai
med, many young wo
men gathered at the citadel of Susa under the care of Hegai. Esther was also taken to the palace and placed under the care of Hegai, the custodian of the wo
men."
Esther 2:5 Now there was at the citadel of Susa a Jewish man from the tribe of Benjamin na
med Mordecai son of Jair, the son of Shi
mei, the son of Kish.
Esther 2:4 Then let the young woman who pleases the king beco
me queen in place of Vashti.” This suggestion pleased the king, and he acted accordingly."
Esther 2:3 and let the king appoint commissioners in each province of his kingdom to assemble all the beautiful young wo
men into the harem at the citadel of Susa. Let them be placed under the care of Hegai, the king’s eunuch in charge of the wo
men, and let them be given beauty treat
ments."
Esther 2:1 So
me ti
me later, when the anger of King Xerxes had subsided, he re
membered Vashti and what she had done, and what had been decreed against her.
Esther 1:21 The king and his princes were pleased with this counsel; so the king did as
Memucan had advised.
Esther 1:20 The edict the king issues will be heard throughout his vast kingdom—and so all wo
men, from the least to the greatest, will honor their husbands.”"
Esther 1:19 So if it pleases the king, let him issue a royal decree, and let it be recorded in the laws of Persia and
Media so that it cannot be repealed, that Vashti shall never again enter the presence of King Xerxes, and that her royal position shall be given to a woman better than she.
Esther 1:18 This very day the noble wo
men of Persia and
Media who have heard about the queen’s conduct will say the sa
me thing to all the king’s officials, resulting in much contempt and wrath."
Esther 1:17 For the conduct of the queen will beco
me known to all wo
men, causing them to despise their husbands and say, ‘King Xerxes ordered Queen Vashti to be brought before him, but she did not co
me.’"
Esther 1:16 And in the presence of the king and his princes,
Memucan replied, “Queen Vashti has wronged not only the king, but all the princes and the peoples in all the provinces of King Xerxes."
Esther 1:14 His closest advisors were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish,
Meres, Marsena, and
Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and
Media who had personal access to the king and ranked highest in the kingdom.
Esther 1:13 Then the king consulted the wise
men who knew the ti
mes, for it was customary for him to confer with the experts in law and justice.
Esther 1:12 Queen Vashti, however, refused to co
me at the king’s command brought by his eunuchs. And the king beca
me furious, and his anger burned within him."
Esther 1:10 On the seventh day, when the king’s heart was
merry with wine, he ordered the seven eunuchs who served him—
Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Carkas—"
Esther 1:9 Queen Vashti also gave a banquet for the wo
men in the royal palace of King Xerxes.
Esther 1:6 Hangings of white and blue linen were fastened with cords of fine white and purple material to silver rings on the marble pillars. Gold and silver couches were arranged on a mosaic pave
ment of porphyry, marble, mother-of-pearl, and other costly stones.
Esther 1:5 At the end of this ti
me, in the garden court of the royal palace, the king held a seven-day feast for all the people in the citadel of Susa, from the least to the greatest.
Esther 1:3 In the third year of his reign, Xerxes held a feast for all his officials and servants. The military leaders of Persia and
Media were there, along with the nobles and princes of the provinces.
Nehemiah 13:31 I also arranged for contributions of wood at the appointed ti
mes, and for the firstfruits. Re
member
me, O my God, with favor.
Nehemiah 13:29 Re
member them, O my God, because they have defiled the priesthood and the covenant of the priesthood and of the Levites.
Nehemiah 13:28 Even one of the sons of Jehoiada son of Eliashib the high priest had beco
me a son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite. Therefore I drove him away from
me.
Nehemiah 13:27 Must we now hear that you too are doing all this terrible evil and acting unfaithfully against our God by marrying foreign wo
men?”"
Nehemiah 13:26 Did not King Solomon of Israel sin in matters like this? There was not a king like him among many nations, and he was loved by his God, who made him king over all Israel—yet foreign wo
men drew him into sin."
Nehemiah 13:25 I rebuked them and called down curses on them. I beat so
me of these
men and pulled out their hair. Then I made them take an oath before God and said, “You must not give your daughters in marriage to their sons or take their daughters as wives for your sons or for yourselves!"
Nehemiah 13:23 In those days I also saw Jews who had married wo
men from Ashdod, Ammon, and Moab.
Nehemiah 13:22 Then I instructed the Levites to purify themselves and guard the gates in order to keep the Sabbath day holy. Re
member
me for this as well, O my God, and show
me mercy according to Your abundant loving devotion.
Nehemiah 13:21 but I warned them, “Why are you camping in front of the wall? If you do it again, I will lay hands on you.” From that ti
me on, they did not return on the Sabbath."
Nehemiah 13:20 Once or twice, the
merchants and those who sell all kinds of goods camped outside Jerusalem,
Nehemiah 13:19 When the evening shadows began to fall on the gates of Jerusalem, just before the Sabbath, I ordered that the gates be shut and not opened until after the Sabbath. I posted so
me of my servants at the gates so that no load could enter on the Sabbath day.
Nehemiah 13:18 Did not your forefathers do the sa
me things, so that our God brought all this disaster on us and on this city? And now you are rekindling His wrath against Israel by profaning the Sabbath!”"
Nehemiah 13:16 Additionally,
men of Tyre who lived there were importing fish and all kinds of
merchandise and selling them on the Sabbath to the people of Judah in Jerusalem.
Nehemiah 13:14 Re
member
me for this, O my God, and do not blot out my deeds of loving devotion for the house of my God and for its services.
Nehemiah 13:6 While all this was happening, I was not in Jerusalem, because I had returned to Artaxerxes king of Babylon in the thirty-second year of his reign. So
me ti
me later I obtained leave from the king
Nehemiah 13:2 because they had not
met the Israelites with food and water, but had hired Balaam to call down a curse against them (although our God had turned the curse into a blessing).
Nehemiah 13:1 At that ti
me the Book of Moses was read aloud in the hearing of the people, and in it they found the passage stating that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever enter the assembly of God,
Nehemiah 12:45 They perfor
med the service of their God and the service of purification, along with the singers and gatekeepers, as David and his son Solomon had prescribed.
Nehemiah 12:44 And on that sa
me day
men were appointed over the rooms that housed the supplies, contributions, firstfruits, and tithes. The portions specified by the Law for the priests and Levites were gathered into these storerooms from the fields of the villages, because Judah rejoiced over the priests and Levites who were serving.
Nehemiah 12:43 On that day they offered great sacrifices, rejoicing because God had given them great joy. The wo
men and children also rejoiced, so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard from afar.
Nehemiah 12:40 The two thanksgiving choirs then stood in the house of God, as did I, along with the half of the officials accompanying
me,
Nehemiah 12:36 and his associates—Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani—with the musical instru
ments prescribed by David the man of God. Ezra the scribe led the procession."
Nehemiah 12:35 and so
me of the priests with trumpets, and also Zechariah son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph,
Nehemiah 12:27 At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, the Levites were sought out from all their ho
mes and brought to Jerusalem to celebrate the joyous dedication with thanksgiving and singing, accompanied by cymbals, harps, and lyres.
Nehemiah 12:25 Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah,
Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers who guarded the storerooms at the gates.
Nehemiah 12:12 In the days of Joiakim, these were the heads of the priestly families: of the family of Seraiah,
Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;
Nehemiah 11:36 And so
me divisions of the Levites of Judah settled in Benjamin.
Nehemiah 11:25 As for the villages with their fields, so
me of the people of Judah lived in Kiriath-arba, Dibon, Jekabzeel, and their villages;
Nehemiah 11:24 Pethahiah son of
Meshezabel, a descendant of Zerah son of Judah, was the king’s agent in every matter concerning the people."
Nehemiah 11:19 And the gatekeepers: Akkub, Talmon, and their associates, who kept watch at the gates—172
men."
Nehemiah 11:14 and his associates—128 mighty
men of valor. Zabdiel son of Haggedolim was their overseer."
Nehemiah 11:13 and his associates, the leaders of families—242
men; Amashai son of Azarel, the son of Ahzai, the son of
Meshillemoth, the son of Im
mer;"
Nehemiah 11:12 and their associates who did the work at the temple—822
men; Adaiah son of Jeroham, the son of Pelaliah, the son of Amzi, the son of Zechariah, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah;"
Nehemiah 11:11 Seraiah son of Hilkiah, the son of
Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of
Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, the chief official of the house of God;
Nehemiah 11:7 From the descendants of Benjamin: Sallu son of
Meshullam, the son of Joed, the son of Pedaiah, the son of Kolaiah, the son of Maaseiah, the son of Ithiel, the son of Jeshaiah;
Nehemiah 11:6 The descendants of Perez who settled in Jerusalem totaled 468
men of valor.
Nehemiah 11:4 while so
me of the descendants of Judah and Benjamin settled in Jerusalem.) From the descendants of Judah: Athaiah son of Uzziah, the son of Zechariah, the son of Amariah, the son of Shephatiah, the son of Mahalalel, a descendant of Perez;
Nehemiah 11:2 And the people blessed all the
men who volunteered to live in Jerusalem.
Nehemiah 10:34 We have cast lots among the priests, Levites, and people for the donation of wood by our families at the appointed ti
mes each year. They are to bring it to the house of our God to burn on the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the Law.
Nehemiah 10:33 for the showbread, for the regular grain offerings and burnt offerings, for the Sabbath offerings, for the New Moons and appointed feasts, for the holy offerings, for the sin offerings to make atone
ment for Israel, and for all the duties of the house of our God.
Nehemiah 10:31 When the people of the land bring
merchandise or any kind of grain to sell on the Sabbath day, we will not buy from them on a Sabbath or holy day. Every seventh year we will let the fields lie fallow, and will cancel every debt.
Nehemiah 10:29 hereby join with their noble brothers and commit themselves with a sworn oath to follow the Law of God given through His servant Moses and to carefully obey all the command
ments, ordinances, and statutes of the LORD our Lord.
Nehemiah 10:1 Now these were the ones who sealed the docu
ment: Nehemiah the governor, son of Hacaliah, and also Zedekiah,
Nehemiah 9:38 In view of all this, we make a binding agree
ment, putting it in writing and sealing it with the na
mes of our leaders, Levites, and priests.”"
Nehemiah 9:34 Our kings and leaders and priests and fathers did not obey Your law or listen to Your command
ments and warnings that You gave them.
Nehemiah 9:32 So now, our God, the great and mighty and aweso
me God who keeps His gracious covenant, do not view lightly all the hardship that has co
me upon us, and upon our kings and leaders, our priests and prophets, our ancestors and all Your people, from the days of the kings of Assyria until today.
Nehemiah 9:29 You admonished them to turn back to Your law, but they were arrogant and disobeyed Your command
ments. They sinned against Your ordinances, by which a man will live if he practices them. They stubbornly shrugged their shoulders; they stiffened their necks and would not obey.
Nehemiah 9:28 But as soon as they had rest, they again did evil in Your sight. So You abandoned them to the hands of their enemies, who had dominion over them. When they cried out to You again, You heard from heaven, and You delivered them many ti
mes in Your compassion.
Nehemiah 9:27 So You delivered them into the hands of enemies who oppressed them, and in their ti
me of distress they cried out to You. From heaven You heard them, and in Your great compassion You gave them deliverers who saved them from the hands of their enemies.
Nehemiah 9:17 They refused to listen and failed to re
member the wonders You perfor
med among them. They stiffened their necks and appointed a leader to return them to their bondage in Egypt. But You are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in loving devotion, and You did not forsake them.
Nehemiah 9:16 But they and our fathers beca
me arrogant and stiff-necked and did not obey Your command
ments.
Nehemiah 9:14 You revealed to them Your holy Sabbath and gave them command
ments and statutes and laws through Your servant Moses.
Nehemiah 9:13 You ca
me down on Mount Sinai and spoke with them from heaven. You gave them just ordinances, true laws, and good statutes and command
ments.
Nehemiah 9:10 You perfor
med signs and wonders against Pharaoh, all his officials, and all the people of his land, for You knew they had acted with arrogance against our fathers. You made a na
me for Yourself that endures to this day.
Nehemiah 9:7 You are the LORD, the God who chose Abram, who brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans and gave him the na
me Abraham.
Nehemiah 9:5 Then the Levites—Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah—said, “Stand up and bless the LORD your God from everlasting to everlasting: Blessed be Your glorious na
me, and may it be exalted above all blessing and praise."
♫ Nehemiah 9:1 On the twenty-fourth day of the sa
me month, the Israelites gathered together, fasting and wearing sackcloth, with dust on their heads.
Nehemiah 8:15 So they proclai
med this
message and spread it throughout their towns and in Jerusalem, saying, “Go out to the hill country and bring back branches of olive, wild olive, myrtle, palm, and other leafy trees, to make booths, as it is written.”"
Nehemiah 8:11 And the Levites cal
med all the people, saying, “Be still, since today is holy. Do not grieve.”"
Nehemiah 8:6 Then Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God, and with their hands uplifted, all the people said, “A
men, A
men!” Then they bowed down and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground."
Nehemiah 8:4 Ezra the scribe stood on a high wooden platform built for this occasion. At his right side stood Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, and at his left were Pedaiah, Mishael, Malchijah, Hashum, Hash-baddanah, Zechariah, and
Meshullam.
Nehemiah 8:3 So Ezra read it aloud from daybreak until noon as he faced the square before the Water Gate, in front of the
men and wo
men and those who could understand. And all the people listened attentively to the Book of the Law.
Nehemiah 8:2 On the first day of the seventh month, Ezra the priest brought the Law before the assembly of
men and wo
men and all who could listen and understand.
Nehemiah 8:1 At that ti
me all the people gathered together in the square before the Water Gate, and they asked Ezra the scribe to bring out the Book of the Law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded for Israel.
Nehemiah 7:73 So the priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, and temple servants, along with so
me of the people and the rest of the Israelites, settled in their own towns. And by the seventh month the Israelites had settled in their towns.
Nehemiah 7:72 The rest of the people gave a total of 20,000 darics of gold, 2,000 minas of silver, and 67 priestly gar
ments.
Nehemiah 7:71 And so
me of the heads of the families gave to the treasury for the project 20,000 darics of gold and 2,200 minas of silver.
Nehemiah 7:70 So
me of the heads of the families contributed to the project. The governor gave to the treasury 1,000 darics of gold, 50 bowls, and 530 priestly gar
ments.
Nehemiah 7:67 in addition to their 7,337
menservants and maidservants, as well as their 245 male and female singers.
Nehemiah 7:64 These
men searched for their family records, but they could not find them and so were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.
Nehemiah 7:63 And from among the priests: the descendants of Hobaiah, the descendants of Hakkoz, and the descendants of Barzillai (who had married a daughter of Barzillai the Gileadite and was called by their na
me).
Nehemiah 7:61 The following ca
me up from Tel-
melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Im
mer, but could not prove that their families were descended from Israel:
Nehemiah 7:54 the descendants of Bazlith, the descendants of
Mehida, the descendants of Harsha,
Nehemiah 7:52 the descendants of Besai, the descendants of
Meunim, the descendants of Nephushesim,
Nehemiah 7:29 the
men of Kiriath-jearim, Chephirah, and Beeroth, 743;
Nehemiah 7:7 accompanied by Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, and Baanah. This is the count of the
men of Israel:
Nehemiah 7:6 These are the people of the province who ca
me up from the captivity of the exiles carried away to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar its king. They returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own town,
Nehemiah 7:3 And I told them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot. While the guards are on duty, keep the doors shut and securely fastened. And appoint the residents of Jerusalem as guards, so
me at their posts and so
me at their own ho
mes.”"
Nehemiah 6:19 Moreover, these nobles kept reporting to
me Tobiah’s good deeds, and they relayed my words to him. And Tobiah sent letters to intimidate
me."
Nehemiah 6:18 For many in Judah were bound by oath to him, since he was a son-in-law of Shecaniah son of Arah, and his son Jehohanan had married the daughter of
Meshullam son of Berechiah.
Nehemiah 6:17 Also in those days, the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and Tobiah’s letters ca
me back to them."
Nehemiah 6:14 O my God, re
member Tobiah and Sanballat for what they have done, and also Noadiah the prophetess and the other prophets who tried to intimidate
me.
Nehemiah 6:13 He had been hired to intimidate
me so that I would sin by doing as he suggested, so they could give
me a bad na
me in order to discredit
me.
Nehemiah 6:12 I realized that God had not sent him, but that he had uttered this prophecy against
me because Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
Nehemiah 6:11 But I replied, “Should a man like
me run away? Should one like
me go into the temple to save his own life? I will not go!”"
Nehemiah 6:10 Later, I went to the house of Shemaiah son of Delaiah, the son of
Mehetabel, who was confined to his house. He said: “Let us
meet at the house of God inside the temple. Let us shut the temple doors because they are coming to kill you—by night they are coming to kill you!”"
Nehemiah 6:7 and you have even appointed prophets in Jerusalem to proclaim on your behalf: ‘There is a king in Judah.’ Soon these rumors will reach the ears of the king. So co
me, let us confer together.”"
Nehemiah 6:6 that read: “It is reported among the nations—and Geshem agrees—that you and the Jews are plotting to revolt, and this is why you are building the wall. According to these reports, you are to beco
me their king,"
Nehemiah 6:5 The fifth ti
me, Sanballat sent
me this sa
me message by his young servant, who had in his hand an unsealed letter
Nehemiah 6:4 Four ti
mes they sent
me the sa
me message, and each ti
me I gave the sa
me reply.
Nehemiah 6:3 So I sent
messengers to them, saying, “I am doing a great work and cannot co
me down. Why should the work stop while I leave it to go down to you?”"
Nehemiah 6:2 Sanballat and Geshem sent
me this
message: “Co
me, let us
meet together in one of the villages on the plain of Ono.” But they were planning to harm
me."
Nehemiah 6:1 When Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our enemies heard that I had rebuilt the wall and not a gap was left—though to that ti
me I had not yet installed the doors in the gates—"
Nehemiah 5:19 Re
member
me favorably, O my God, for all that I have done for this people.
Nehemiah 5:18 Each day one ox, six choice sheep, and so
me fowl were prepared for
me, and once every ten days an abundance of all kinds of wine was provided. But I did not demand the food allotted to the governor, because the burden on the people was so heavy.
Nehemiah 5:15 The governors before
me had heavily burdened the people, taking from them bread and wine plus forty shekels of silver. Their servants also oppressed the people, but I did not do this because of my fear of God.
Nehemiah 5:14 Furthermore, from the day King Artaxerxes appointed
me to be their governor in the land of Judah, from his twentieth year until his thirty-second year (twelve years total), neither I nor my brothers ate the food allotted to the governor.
Nehemiah 5:13 I also shook out the folds of my robe and said, “May God likewise shake out of His house and possession every man who does not keep this promise. May such a man be shaken out and have nothing!” The whole assembly said, “A
men,” and they praised the LORD. And the people did as they had promised."
Nehemiah 5:11 Please restore to them im
mediately their fields, vineyards, olive groves, and houses, along with the percentage of the money, grain, new wine, and oil that you have been assessing them.”"
Nehemiah 5:6 When I heard their outcry and these complaints, I beca
me extre
mely angry,
Nehemiah 5:5 We and our children are just like our country
men and their children, yet we are subjecting our sons and daughters to slavery. So
me of our daughters are already enslaved, but we are powerless to redeem them because our fields and vineyards belong to others.”"
Nehemiah 5:3 Others were saying, “We are mortgaging our fields, our vineyards, and our ho
mes to get grain during the famine.”"
Nehemiah 5:2 So
me were saying, “We and our sons and daughters are nu
merous. We must get grain in order to eat and stay alive.”"
Nehemiah 5:1 About that ti
me there was a great outcry from the people and their wives against their fellow Jews.
Nehemiah 4:23 So neither I nor my brothers nor my servants nor the guards with
me changed out of our clothes; each carried his weapon, even to go for water.
Nehemiah 4:22 At that ti
me I also said to the people, “Let every man and his servant spend the night inside Jerusalem, so that they can stand guard by night and work by day.”"
Nehemiah 4:21 So we continued the work, while half of the
men held spears from the break of dawn until the stars ca
me out.
Nehemiah 4:18 And each of the builders worked with his sword strapped at his side. But the trumpeter stayed beside
me.
Nehemiah 4:15 When our enemies heard that we were aware of their sche
me and that God had frustrated it, each of us returned to his own work on the wall.
Nehemiah 4:14 After I had made an inspection, I stood up and said to the nobles, the officials, and the rest of the people, “Do not be afraid of them. Re
member the Lord, who is great and aweso
me, and fight for your brothers, your sons and your daughters, your wives and your ho
mes.”"
Nehemiah 4:13 So I stationed
men behind the lowest sections of the wall, at the vulnerable areas. I stationed them by families with their swords, spears, and bows.
Nehemiah 4:12 At that ti
me the Jews who lived nearby ca
me and told us ten ti
mes over, “Wherever you turn, they will attack us.”"
Nehemiah 4:11 And our enemies said, “Before they know or see a thing, we will co
me into their midst, kill them, and put an end to the work.”"
Nehemiah 4:10 Meanwhile, the people of Judah said: “The strength of the laborer fails, and there is so much rubble that we will never be able to rebuild the wall.”"
Nehemiah 4:8 and all of them conspired to co
me and fight against Jerusalem and create a hindrance.
Nehemiah 3:32 And between the upper room above the corner and the Sheep Gate, the goldsmiths and
merchants made repairs.
Nehemiah 3:31 Next to him, Malchijah, one of the goldsmiths, made repairs as far as the house of the temple servants and the
merchants, opposite the Inspection Gate, and as far as the upper room above the corner.
Nehemiah 3:30 Next to him, Hananiah son of Shelemiah, as well as Hanun the sixth son of Zalaph, repaired another section. Next to them,
Meshullam son of Berechiah made repairs opposite his own quarters.
Nehemiah 3:29 Next to them, Zadok son of Im
mer made repairs opposite his house, and next to him, Shemaiah son of Shecaniah, the guard of the East Gate, made repairs.
Nehemiah 3:21 Next to him,
Meremoth son of Uriah, the son of Hakkoz, repaired another section, from the doorway of the house of Eliashib to the end of the house.
Nehemiah 3:18 Next to him, their country
men made repairs under Binnui son of Henadad, ruler of the other half-district of Keilah.
Nehemiah 3:8 Next to them, Uzziel son of Harhaiah, one of the goldsmiths, made repairs, and next to him, Hananiah son of the perfu
mer made repairs. They fortified Jerusalem as far as the Broad Wall.
Nehemiah 3:7 Next to them, repairs were made by
Melatiah the Gibeonite, Jadon the
Meronothite, and the
men of Gibeon and Mizpah, who were under the authority of the governor of the region west of the Euphrates.
Nehemiah 3:6 The Jeshanah Gate was repaired by Joiada son of Paseah and
Meshullam son of Besodeiah. They laid its beams and installed its doors, bolts, and bars.
Nehemiah 3:4 Next to them,
Meremoth son of Uriah, the son of Hakkoz, made repairs. Next to him,
Meshullam son of Berechiah, the son of
Meshezabel, made repairs; and next to him, Zadok son of Baana made repairs as well.
Nehemiah 3:2 The
men of Jericho built next to Eliashib, and Zaccur son of Imri built next to them.
Nehemiah 2:18 I also told them about the gracious hand of my God upon
me, and what the king had said to
me. “Let us start rebuilding,” they replied, and they set their hands to this good work."
Nehemiah 2:17 Then I said to them, “You see the trouble we are in. Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been burned down. Co
me, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, so that we will no longer be a disgrace.”"
Nehemiah 2:14 Then I went on to the Fountain Gate and the King’s Pool, but there was no room for the animal under
me to get through;"
Nehemiah 2:12 I set out at night with a few
men. I did not tell anyone what my God had laid on my heart to do for Jerusalem. The only animal with
me was the one on which I was riding.
Nehemiah 2:10 But when Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite official heard about this, they were deeply disturbed that so
meone had co
me to seek the well-being of the Israelites.
Nehemiah 2:9 Then I went to the governors west of the Euphrates and gave them the king’s letters. The king had also sent army officers and cavalry with
me."
Nehemiah 2:8 And may I have a letter to Asaph, keeper of the king’s forest, so that he will give
me timber to make beams for the gates of the citadel to the temple, for the city wall, and for the house I will occupy.” And because the gracious hand of my God was upon
me, the king granted my requests."
Nehemiah 2:7 I also said to him, “If it pleases the king, may letters be given to
me for the governors west of the Euphrates, so that they will grant
me safe passage until I reach Judah."
Nehemiah 2:6 Then the king, with the queen seated beside him, asked
me, “How long will your journey take, and when will you return?” So it pleased the king to send
me, and I set a ti
me."
Nehemiah 2:5 and answered the king, “If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor in your sight, I ask that you send
me to Judah, to the city where my fathers are buried, so that I may rebuild it.”"
Nehemiah 2:2 so the king said to
me, “Why is your face sad, though you are not ill? This could only be sadness of the heart.” I was overwhel
med with fear"
Nehemiah 1:11 O Lord, may Your ear be attentive to my prayer and to the prayers of Your servants who delight to revere Your na
me. Give Your servant success this day, I pray, and grant him
mercy in the sight of this man.” (At that ti
me I was the cupbearer to the king.)"
Nehemiah 1:10 They are Your servants and Your people. You redee
med them by Your great power and mighty hand.
Nehemiah 1:9 but if you return to
Me and keep and practice My command
ments, then even if your exiles have been banished to the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for My Na
me.’"
Nehemiah 1:8 Re
member, I pray, the word that You commanded Your servant Moses when You said, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations,"
Nehemiah 1:7 We have behaved corruptly against You and have not kept the command
ments, statutes, and ordinances that You gave Your servant Moses.
Nehemiah 1:5 Then I said: “O LORD, God of heaven, the great and aweso
me God who keeps His covenant of loving devotion with those who love Him and keep His command
ments,"
Nehemiah 1:3 And they told
me, “The remnant who survived the exile are there in the province, in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates are burned with fire.”"
Nehemiah 1:2 Hanani, one of my brothers, arrived with
men from Judah. So I questioned them about the remnant of the Jews who had survived the exile, and also about Jerusalem.
Ezra 10:44 All these
men had married foreign wo
men, and so
me of them had children by these wives.
Ezra 10:38 From the descendants of Binnui: Shi
mei,
Ezra 10:33 From the descendants of Hashum: Mattenai, Mattattah, Zabad, Eliphelet, Jeremai, Manasseh, and Shi
mei.
Ezra 10:31 From the descendants of Harim: Eliezer, Isshijah, Malchijah, Shemaiah, Shi
meon,
Ezra 10:29 From the descendants of Bani:
Meshullam, Malluch, Adaiah, Jashub, Sheal, and Jeremoth.
Ezra 10:23 Among the Levites: Jozabad, Shi
mei, Kelaiah (that is, Kelita), Pethahiah, Judah, and Eliezer.
Ezra 10:20 From the descendants of Im
mer: Hanani and Zebadiah.
Ezra 10:18 Among the descendants of the priests who had married foreign wo
men were found these descendants of Jeshua son of Jozadak and his brothers: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, and Gedaliah.
Ezra 10:17 and by the first day of the first month they had dealt with all the
men who had married foreign wo
men.
Ezra 10:16 So the exiles did as proposed. Ezra the priest selected
men who were family heads, each of them identified by na
me, to represent their families. On the first day of the tenth month they launched the investigation,
Ezra 10:15 (Only Jonathan son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah, supported by
Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite, opposed this plan.)
Ezra 10:14 Let our leaders represent the whole assembly. Then let everyone in our towns who has married a foreign woman co
me at an appointed ti
me, together with the elders and judges of each town, until the fierce anger of our God in this matter is turned away from us.”"
Ezra 10:10 Then Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have been unfaithful by marrying foreign wo
men, adding to the guilt of Israel."
Ezra 10:9 So within the three days, all the
men of Judah and Benjamin assembled in Jerusalem, and on the twentieth day of the ninth month, all the people sat in the square at the house of God, trembling regarding this matter and because of the heavy rain.
Ezra 10:2 Then Shecaniah son of Jehiel, an Elamite, said to Ezra: “We have been unfaithful to our God by marrying foreign wo
men from the people of the land, yet in spite of this, there is hope for Israel."
Ezra 10:1 While Ezra prayed and made this confession, weeping and falling facedown before the house of God, a very large assembly of Israelites—
men, wo
men, and children—gathered around him, and the people wept bitterly as well."
Ezra 9:14 shall we again break Your command
ments and intermarry with the peoples who commit these abominations? Would You not beco
me so angry with us as to wipe us out, leaving no remnant or survivor?
Ezra 9:13 After all that has co
me upon us because of our evil deeds and our great guilt (though You, our God, have punished us less than our iniquities deserve and have given us such a remnant as this),
Ezra 9:10 And now, our God, what can we say after this? For we have forsaken the command
ments
Ezra 9:8 But now, for a brief mo
ment, grace has co
me from the LORD our God to preserve for us a remnant and to give us a stake in His holy place. Even in our bondage, our God has given us new life and light to our eyes.
Ezra 9:6 and said: “O my God, I am asha
med and embarrassed to lift up my face to You, my God, because our iniquities are higher than our heads, and our guilt has reached the heavens."
Ezra 9:4 Then everyone who trembled at the words of the God of Israel gathered around
me because of the unfaithfulness of the exiles, while I sat there in horror until the evening offering.
Ezra 9:3 When I heard this report, I tore my tunic and cloak, pulled out so
me hair from my head and beard, and sat down in horror.
Ezra 9:2 Indeed, the Israelites have taken so
me of their daughters as wives for themselves and their sons, so that the holy seed has been mixed with the people of the land. And the leaders and officials have taken the lead in this unfaithfulness!”"
Ezra 9:1 After these things had been accomplished, the leaders approached
me and said, “The people of Israel, including the priests and Levites, have not kept themselves separate from the surrounding peoples whose abominations are like those of the Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Jebusites, Ammonites, Moabites, Egyptians, and Amorites."
Ezra 8:34 Everything was verified by number and weight, and the total weight was recorded at that ti
me.
Ezra 8:33 On the fourth day, in the house of our God, we weighed out the silver and gold and sacred articles into the hand of
Meremoth son of Uriah, the priest. Eleazar son of Phinehas was with him, along with the Levites Jozabad son of Jeshua and Noadiah son of Binnui.
Ezra 8:22 For I was asha
med to ask the king for an escort of soldiers and horse
men to protect us from our enemies on the road, since we had told him, “The hand of our God is gracious to all who seek Him, but His great anger is against all who forsake Him.”"
Ezra 8:21 And there by the Ahava Canal I proclai
med a fast, so that we might humble ourselves before our God and ask Him for a safe journey for us and our children, with all our possessions.
Ezra 8:20 They also brought 220 of the temple servants, all designated by na
me. David and the officials had appointed them to assist the Levites.
Ezra 8:19 also Hashabiah, together with Jeshaiah, from the descendants of
Merari, and his brothers and their sons, 20
men.
Ezra 8:18 And since the gracious hand of our God was upon us, they brought us Sherebiah—a man of insight from the descendants of Mahli son of Levi, the son of Israel—along with his sons and brothers, 18
men;"
Ezra 8:17 And I sent them to Iddo, the leader at Casiphia, with a
message for him and his kins
men, the temple servants at Casiphia, that they should bring to us ministers for the house of our God.
Ezra 8:16 Then I summoned the leaders: Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah, and
Meshullam, as well as the teachers Joiarib and Elnathan.
Ezra 8:14 and from the descendants of Bigvai, both Uthai and Zaccur, and with them 70
men.
Ezra 8:13 from the later descendants of Adonikam, these were their na
mes: Eliphelet, Jeiel, and Shemaiah, and with them 60
men;
Ezra 8:12 from the descendants of Azgad, Johanan son of Hakkatan, and with him 110
men;
Ezra 8:11 from the descendants of Bebai, Zechariah son of Bebai, and with him 28
men;
Ezra 8:10 from the descendants of Bani, Shelomith son of Josiphiah, and with him 160
men;
Ezra 8:9 from the descendants of Joab, Obadiah son of Jehiel, and with him 218
men;
Ezra 8:8 from the descendants of Shephatiah, Zebadiah son of Michael, and with him 80
men;
Ezra 8:7 from the descendants of Elam, Jeshaiah son of Athaliah, and with him 70
men;
Ezra 8:6 from the descendants of Adin, Ebed son of Jonathan, and with him 50
men;
Ezra 8:5 from the descendants of Zattu, Shecaniah son of Jahaziel, and with him 300
men;
Ezra 8:4 from the descendants of Pahath-Moab, Eliehoenai son of Zerahiah, and with him 200
men;
Ezra 8:3 of the descendants of Shecaniah; from the descendants of Parosh, Zechariah, and with him were registered 150
men;
Ezra 8:1 These are the family heads and genealogical records of those who returned with
me from Babylon during the reign of King Artaxerxes:
Ezra 7:28 and who has shown
me favor before the king, his counselors, and all his powerful officials. And because the hand of the LORD my God was upon
me, I took courage and gathered the leaders of Israel to return with
me.
Ezra 7:26 If anyone does not keep the law of your God and the law of the king, let a strict judg
ment be executed against him, whether death, banish
ment, confiscation of property, or imprison
ment.
Ezra 7:11 This is the text of the letter King Artaxerxes had given to Ezra the priest and scribe, an expert in the command
ments and statutes of the LORD to Israel:
Ezra 7:7 So in the seventh year of King Artaxerxes, he went up to Jerusalem with so
me of the Israelites, including priests, Levites, singers, gatekeepers, and temple servants.
Ezra 7:6 this Ezra ca
me up from Babylon. He was a scribe skilled in the Law of Moses, which the LORD, the God of Israel, had given. The king had granted Ezra all his requests, for the hand of the LORD his God was upon him.
Ezra 7:3 the son of Amariah, the son of Azariah, the son of
Meraioth,
Ezra 6:12 May God, who has caused His Na
me to dwell there, overthrow any king or people who lifts a hand to alter this decree or to destroy this house of God in Jerusalem. I, Darius, have issued the decree. Let it be carried out with diligence.
Ezra 6:8 I hereby decree what you must do for these elders of the Jews who are rebuilding this house of God: The cost is to be paid in full to these
men from the royal treasury out of the taxes of the provinces west of the Euphrates, so that the work will not be hindered.
Ezra 6:2 And a scroll was found in the fortress of Ecbatana, in the province of
Media, with the following written on it:
Memorandum:
Ezra 5:16 So this Sheshbazzar ca
me and laid the foundation of the house of God in Jerusalem, and from that ti
me until now it has been under construction, but it has not yet been completed.”"
Ezra 5:14 He also removed from the temple of Babylon the gold and silver articles belonging to the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar had taken and carried there from the temple in Jerusalem. King Cyrus gave these articles to a man na
med Sheshbazzar, whom he appointed governor
Ezra 5:10 We also asked for their na
mes, so that we could write down the na
mes of their leaders for your information.
Ezra 5:4 They also asked, “What are the na
mes of the
men who are constructing this building?”"
Ezra 5:3 At that ti
me Tattenai the governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their associates went to the Jews and asked, “Who authorized you to rebuild this temple and restore this structure?”"
Ezra 5:1 Later, the prophets Haggai and Zechariah son of Iddo prophesied to the Jews in Judah and Jerusalem in the na
me of the God of Israel, who was over them.
Ezra 4:23 When the text of the letter from King Artaxerxes was read to Rehum, Shimshai the scribe, and their associates, they went im
mediately to the Jews in Jerusalem and forcibly stopped them.
Ezra 4:21 Now, therefore, issue an order for these
men to stop, so that this city will not be rebuilt until I so order.
Ezra 4:19 I issued a decree, and a search was conducted. It was discovered that this city has revolted against kings from ancient ti
mes, engaging in rebellion and sedition.
Ezra 4:15 that a search should be made of the record books of your fathers. In these books you will discover and verify that the city is a rebellious city, harmful to kings and provinces, inciting sedition from ancient ti
mes. That is why this city was destroyed.
Ezra 4:12 Let it be known to the king that the Jews who ca
me from you to us have returned to Jerusalem. And they are rebuilding that rebellious and wicked city, restoring its walls, and repairing its foundations.
Ezra 4:11 (This is the text of the letter they sent to him.) To King Artaxerxes, From your servants, the
men west of the Euphrates:
Ezra 4:2 they approached Zerubbabel and the heads of the families, saying, “Let us build with you because, like you, we seek your God and have been sacrificing to Him since the ti
me of King Esar-haddon of Assyria, who brought us here.”"
Ezra 2:70 So the priests, the Levites, the singers, the gatekeepers, and the temple servants, along with so
me of the people, settled in their own towns; and the rest of the Israelites settled in their towns.

ments.

me of the heads of the families gave freewill offerings to rebuild the house of God on its original site.
Ezra 2:65 in addition to their 7,337
menservants and maidservants, as well as their 200 male and female singers.

men searched for their family records, but they could not find them and so were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.

me).
Ezra 2:59 The following ca
me up from Tel-
melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Im
mer, but could not prove that their families were descended from Israel:

Meunim, the descendants of Nephusim,

men of Lod, Hadid, and Ono, 725;

men of Kiriath-jearim, Chephirah, and Beeroth, 743;
Ezra 2:2 accompanied by Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Seraiah, Reelaiah, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum, and Baanah. This is the count of the
men of Israel:
Ezra 2:1 Now these are the people of the province who ca
me up from the captivity of the exiles carried away to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar its king. They returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own town,
Ezra 1:4 And let every survivor, wherever he lives, be assisted by the
men of that region with silver, gold, goods, and livestock, along with a freewill offering for the house of God in Jerusalem.’”"

me all the kingdoms of the earth, has appointed
me to build a house for Him at Jerusalem in Judah."

ments.

me away, for I am badly wounded!”"

Megiddo."
2 Chronicles 35:21 But Neco sent
messengers to him, saying, “What is the issue between you and
me, O king of Judah? I have not co

Me and burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke
Me to anger with all the works of their hands. My wrath will be poured out upon this place and will not be quenched.’"

me upon them during the days of Hezekiah."

me mortally ill. So he prayed to the LORD, who spoke to him and gave him a sign.
2 Chronicles 32:21 and the LORD sent an angel who annihilated every mighty man of valor and every leader and commander in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he withdrew to his own land in disgrace. And when he entered the temple of his god, so

me and find plenty of water?” they said."
2 Chronicles 32:2 When Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had co
me to make war against Jerusalem,

me and invaded Judah. He laid siege to the fortified cities, intending to conquer them for himself.

mei, by appoint
ment of King Hezekiah and of Azariah the chief official of the house of God.

mei was second.
2 Chronicles 31:8 When Hezekiah and his officials ca
me and viewed the heaps, they blessed the LORD and His people Israel.
2 Chronicles 30:27 Then the priests and the Levites stood to bless the people, and God heard their voice, and their prayer ca
me into His holy dwelling place in heaven.

me from Israel, including the foreigners who had co
me from Israel and those who lived in Judah.

med skillfully before the LORD. For seven days they ate their assigned portion, sacrificing fellowship offerings and giving thanks to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
2 Chronicles 30:21 The Israelites who were present in Jerusalem celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days with great joy, and the Levites and priests praised the LORD day after day, accompanied by loud instru

ment for everyone"
2 Chronicles 30:15 And on the fourteenth day of the second month they slaughtered the Passover lamb. The priests and Levites were asha
med, and they consecrated themselves and brought burnt offerings to the house of the LORD.
2 Chronicles 30:11 Nevertheless, so
me from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbled themselves and ca
me to Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 30:9 For if you return to the LORD, your brothers and sons will receive
mercy in the presence of their captors and will return to this land. For the LORD your God is gracious and
merciful; He will not turn His face away from you if you return to Him.”"
2 Chronicles 30:8 Now do not stiffen your necks as your fathers did. Submit to the LORD and co
me to His sanctuary, which He has consecrated forever. Serve the LORD your God, so that His fierce anger will turn away from you.
2 Chronicles 30:5 So they established a decree to circulate a proclamation throughout Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that the people should co
me to keep the Passover of the LORD, the God of Israel, in Jerusalem. For they had not observed it as a nation as prescribed.
2 Chronicles 30:3 since they had been unable to observe it at the regular ti
me, because not enough priests had consecrated themselves and the people had not been gathered in Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 30:1 Then Hezekiah sent word throughout all Israel and Judah, and he also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh inviting them to co
me to the house of the LORD in Jerusalem to keep the Passover of the LORD, the God of Israel.
2 Chronicles 29:31 Then Hezekiah said, “Now that you have consecrated yourselves to the LORD, co
me near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings to the house of the LORD.” So the assembly brought sacrifices and thank offerings, and all whose hearts were willing brought burnt offerings."
2 Chronicles 29:27 And Hezekiah ordered that the burnt offering be sacrificed on the altar. When the burnt offering began, the song of the LORD and the trumpets began as well, accompanied by the instru
ments of David king of Israel.

ments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
2 Chronicles 29:25 Hezekiah stationed the Levites in the house of the LORD with cymbals, harps, and lyres according to the command of David, of Gad the king’s seer, and of Nathan the prophet. For the command had co
me from the LORD through His prophets."

mei from the Hemanites; and Shemaiah and Uzziel from the Jeduthunites.

me, O Levites,” he said. “Consecrate yourselves now and consecrate the house of the LORD, the God of your fathers. Remove from the Holy Place every impurity."
2 Chronicles 29:1 Hezekiah was twenty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s na
me was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah."
2 Chronicles 28:23 Since Damascus had defeated him, he sacrificed to their gods and said, “Because the gods of the kings of Aram have helped them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help
me.” But these gods were the downfall of Ahaz and of all Israel."
2 Chronicles 28:22 In the ti
me of his distress, King Ahaz beca
me even more unfaithful to the LORD.
2 Chronicles 28:20 Then Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria ca
me to Ahaz but afflicted him rather than strengthening him.
2 Chronicles 28:18 The Philistines had also raided the cities of the foothills and the Negev of Judah, capturing and occupying Beth-she
mesh, Aijalon, and Gederoth, as well as Soco, Timnah, and Gimzo with their villages.
2 Chronicles 28:17 The Edomites had again co
me and attacked Judah and carried away captives.
2 Chronicles 28:15 Then the
men who were designated by na
me arose, took charge of the captives, and provided from the plunder clothing for the naked. They clothed them, gave them sandals and food and drink, anointed their wounds, and put all the feeble on donkeys. So they brought them to Jericho, the City of Palms, to their brothers. Then they returned to Samaria.
2 Chronicles 28:14 So the ar
med
men left the captives and the plunder before the leaders and all the assembly.
2 Chronicles 28:12 Then so
me of the leaders of the Ephraimites—Azariah son of Jehohanan, Berechiah son of
Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah son of Shallum, and Amasa son of Hadlai—stood in opposition to those arriving from the war."
2 Chronicles 28:11 Now therefore, listen to
me and return the captives you took from your kins
men, for the fierce anger of the LORD is upon you.”"
2 Chronicles 28:10 And now you intend to reduce to slavery the
men and wo
men of Judah and Jerusalem. But are you not also guilty before the LORD your God?
2 Chronicles 28:9 But a prophet of the LORD na
med Oded was there, and he went out to
meet the army that returned to Samaria. “Look,” he said to them, “because of His wrath against Judah, the LORD, the God of your fathers, has delivered them into your hand. But you have slaughtered them in a rage that reaches up to heaven."
2 Chronicles 28:8 Then the Israelites took 200,000 captives from their kins
men—wo
men, sons, and daughters. They also carried off a great deal of plunder and brought it to Samaria."
2 Chronicles 28:6 For in one day Pekah son of Remaliah killed 120,000 valiant
men in Judah. This happened because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers.
2 Chronicles 28:1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD.
2 Chronicles 27:8 He was twenty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years.
2 Chronicles 27:5 Jotham waged war against the king of the Ammonites and defeated them, and that year they gave him a hundred talents of silver, ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand cors of barley. They paid him the sa
me in the second and third years.
2 Chronicles 27:1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s na
me was Jerushah daughter of Zadok."
2 Chronicles 26:15 And in Jerusalem he made skillfully designed devices to shoot arrows and catapult large stones from the towers and corners. So his fa
me spread far and wide, for he was helped tre
mendously so that he beca
me powerful.
2 Chronicles 26:14 Uzziah supplied the entire army with shields, spears, hel
mets, armor, bows, and slingstones.
2 Chronicles 26:12 The total number of family leaders of the mighty
men of valor was 2,600.
2 Chronicles 26:10 Since he had much livestock in the foothills and in the plain, he built towers in the desert and dug many cisterns. And since he was a lover of the soil, he had far
mers and vinedressers in the hill country and in the fertile fields.
2 Chronicles 26:8 The Ammonites brought tribute to Uzziah, and his fa
me spread as far as the border of Egypt, for he had beco
me exceedingly powerful.
2 Chronicles 26:7 God helped him against the Philistines, against the Arabs living in Gur-baal, and against the
Meunites.
2 Chronicles 26:3 Uzziah was sixteen years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s na
me was Jecoliah; she was from Jerusalem."
2 Chronicles 25:27 From the ti
me that Amaziah turned from following the LORD, a conspiracy was for
med against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But
men were sent after him to Lachish, and they killed him there.
2 Chronicles 25:24 He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the house of God with Obed-edom and in the treasuries of the royal palace, as well as so
me hostages. Then he returned to Samaria.
2 Chronicles 25:23 There at Beth-she
mesh, Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz. Then Jehoash brought him to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate—a section of four hundred cubits."
2 Chronicles 25:22 And Judah was routed before Israel, and every man fled to his own ho
me.
2 Chronicles 25:21 So Jehoash king of Israel advanced, and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced each other at Beth-she
mesh in Judah.
2 Chronicles 25:20 But Amaziah would not listen, for this had co
me from God in order to deliver them into the hand of Jehoash, because they had sought the gods of Edom.
2 Chronicles 25:19 You have said, ‘Look, I have defeated Edom,’ and your heart has beco
me proud and boastful. Now stay at ho
me. Why should you stir up trouble so that you fall—you and Judah with you?”"
2 Chronicles 25:18 But Jehoash king of Israel replied to Amaziah king of Judah: “A thistle in Lebanon sent a
message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in marriage.’ Then a wild beast in Lebanon ca
me along and trampled the thistle."
2 Chronicles 25:17 Then Amaziah king of Judah took counsel and sent word to the king of Israel Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu. “Co
me, let us
meet face to face,” he said."
2 Chronicles 25:13 Meanwhile the troops that Amaziah had dismissed from battle raided the cities of Judah, from Samaria to Beth-horon. They struck down 3,000 people and carried off a great deal of plunder.
2 Chronicles 25:12 and the army of Judah also captured 10,000
men alive. They took them to the top of a cliff and threw them down so that all were dashed to pieces.
2 Chronicles 25:11 Amaziah, however, summoned his strength and led his troops to the Valley of Salt, where he struck down 10,000
men of Seir,
2 Chronicles 25:10 So Amaziah dismissed the troops who had co
me to him from Ephraim and sent them ho
me. And they were furious with Judah and returned ho
me in great anger.
2 Chronicles 25:7 But a man of God ca
me to him and said, “O king, do not let the army of Israel go with you, for the LORD is not with Israel—not with any of the Ephraimites."
2 Chronicles 25:5 Then Amaziah gathered the people of Judah and assigned them according to their families to commanders of thousands and of hundreds. And he numbered those twenty years of age or older throughout Judah and Benjamin and found 300,000 chosen
men able to serve in the army, bearing the spear and shield.
2 Chronicles 25:1 Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s na
me was Jehoaddan; she was from Jerusalem."
2 Chronicles 24:27 The accounts of the sons of Joash, as well as the many pronounce
ments about him and about the restoration of the house of God, are indeed written in the Treatise of the Book of the Kings. And his son Amaziah reigned in his place.
2 Chronicles 24:26 Those who conspired against Joash were Zabad son of Shi
meath the Ammonitess and Jehozabad son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
2 Chronicles 24:25 And when the Ara
means had withdrawn, they left Joash severely wounded. His own servants conspired against him for shedding the blood of the son of Jehoiada the priest, and they killed him on his bed. So he died and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
2 Chronicles 24:24 Although the Ara
mean army had co
me with only a few
men, the LORD delivered into their hand a very great army. Because Judah had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers, judg
ment was executed on Joash.
2 Chronicles 24:22 Thus King Joash failed to re
member the kindness that Zechariah’s father Jehoiada had extended to him. Instead, Joash killed Jehoiada’s son. As he lay dying, Zechariah said, “May the LORD see this and call you to account.”"
2 Chronicles 24:20 Then the Spirit of God ca
me upon Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest, who stood up before the people and said to them, “This is what God says: ‘Why do you transgress the command
ments of the LORD so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, He has forsaken you.’”"
2 Chronicles 24:18 They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and idols. So wrath ca
me upon Judah and Jerusalem for this guilt of theirs.
2 Chronicles 24:17 After the death of Jehoiada, however, the officials of Judah ca
me and paid homage to the king, and he listened to them.
2 Chronicles 24:13 So the work
men labored, and in their hands the repair work progressed. They restored the house of God according to its specifications, and they reinforced it.
2 Chronicles 24:11 Whenever the chest was brought by the Levites to the king’s overseers and they saw that there was a large amount of money, the royal scribe and the officer of the high priest would co
me and empty the chest and carry it back to its place. They did this daily and gathered the money in abundance."
2 Chronicles 24:4 So
me ti
me later, Joash set his heart on repairing the house of the LORD.
2 Chronicles 24:1 Joash was seven years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother’s na
me was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba."
2 Chronicles 23:13 And she looked out and saw the king standing by his pillar at the entrance. The officers and trumpeters were beside the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets, while the singers with musical instru
ments were leading the praises. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and screa
med, “Treason, treason!”"
2 Chronicles 23:11 Then Jehoiada and his sons brought out the king’s son, put the crown on him, presented him with the Testimony, and proclai
med him king. They anointed him and shouted, “Long live the king!”"
2 Chronicles 23:8 So the Levites and all Judah did everything that Jehoiada the priest had ordered. Each of them took his
men—those coming on duty on the Sabbath and those going off duty—for Jehoiada the priest had not released any of the divisions."
2 Chronicles 23:6 No one is to enter the house of the LORD except the priests and those Levites who serve; they may enter because they are consecrated, but all the people are to obey the require
ment of the LORD.
2 Chronicles 23:4 This is what you are to do: A third of you priests and Levites who co
me on duty on the Sabbath shall keep watch at the doors,
2 Chronicles 23:2 So they went throughout Judah and gathered the Levites from all the cities of Judah and the heads of the families of Israel. And when they ca
me to Jerusalem,
2 Chronicles 22:8 So while Jehu was executing judg
ment on the house of Ahab, he found the rulers of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s brothers who were serving Ahaziah, and he killed them."
2 Chronicles 22:7 Ahaziah’s downfall ca
me from God when he went to visit Joram. When Ahaziah arrived, he went out with Joram to
meet Jehu son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab."
2 Chronicles 22:5 Ahaziah also followed their counsel and went with Joram son of Ahab king of Israel to fight against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth-gilead. But the Ara
means wounded Joram;
2 Chronicles 22:2 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem one year. His mother’s na
me was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri."
2 Chronicles 22:1 Then the people of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, the youngest son of Jehoram, king in his place, since the raiders who had co
me into the camp with the Arabs had killed all the older sons. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram beca
me king of Judah.
2 Chronicles 21:20 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He died, to no one’s regret, and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings."
2 Chronicles 21:19 This continued day after day until two full years had passed. Finally, his intestines ca
me out because of his disease, and he died in severe pain. And his people did not make a fire in his honor as they had done for his fathers.
2 Chronicles 21:15 And day after day you yourself will suffer from a severe illness, a disease of your bowels, until it causes your bowels to co
me out.’”"
2 Chronicles 21:12 Then a letter ca
me to Jehoram from Elijah the prophet, which stated: “This is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘You have not walked in the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa king of Judah,"
2 Chronicles 21:10 So to this day Edom has been in rebellion against the hand of Judah. Likewise, Libnah rebelled against his rule at the sa
me ti
me, because Jehoram had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
2 Chronicles 21:5 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years.
2 Chronicles 21:4 When Jehoram had established himself over his father’s kingdom, he strengthened himself by putting to the sword all his brothers along with so
me of the princes of Israel."
2 Chronicles 20:31 So Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-five years. His mother’s na
me was Azubah daughter of Shilhi."
2 Chronicles 20:29 And the fear of God ca
me upon all the kingdoms of the lands when they heard that the LORD had fought against the enemies of Israel.
2 Chronicles 20:27 Then all the
men of Judah and Jerusalem, with Jehoshaphat at their head, returned joyfully to Jerusalem, for the LORD had made them rejoice over their enemies.
2 Chronicles 20:24 When the
men of Judah ca
me to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked for the vast army, but there were only corpses lying on the ground; no one had escaped.
2 Chronicles 20:22 The mo
ment they began their shouts and praises, the LORD set ambushes against the
men of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir who had co
me against Judah, and they were defeated.
2 Chronicles 20:20 Early in the morning they got up and left for the Wilderness of Tekoa. As they set out, Jehoshaphat stood up and said, “Hear
me, O people of Judah and Jerusalem. Believe in the LORD your God, and you will be upheld; believe in His prophets, and you will succeed.”"
2 Chronicles 20:14 Then the Spirit of the LORD ca
me upon Jahaziel son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite from Asaph’s descendants, as he stood in the midst of the assembly."
2 Chronicles 20:13 Meanwhile all the
men of Judah, with their wives and children and little ones, were standing before the LORD.
2 Chronicles 20:12 Our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this vast army that co
mes against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.”"
2 Chronicles 20:10 And now, here are the
men of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, whom You did not let Israel invade when they ca
me out of the land of Egypt; but Israel turned away from them and did not destroy them.
2 Chronicles 20:9 ‘If disaster co
mes upon us—whether sword or judg
ment, plague or famine—we will stand before this temple and before You, for Your Na
me is in this temple. We will cry out to You in our distress, and You will hear us and save us.’"
2 Chronicles 20:8 They have lived in the land and have built in it a sanctuary for Your Na
me, saying,
2 Chronicles 20:4 So the people of Judah gathered to seek the LORD, and indeed, they ca
me from all the cities of Judah to seek Him.
2 Chronicles 20:3 Jehoshaphat was alar
med and set his face to seek the LORD. And he proclai
med a fast throughout Judah.
2 Chronicles 20:2 Then so
me men ca
me and told Jehoshaphat, “A vast army is coming against you from Edom, from beyond the Sea; they are already in Hazazon-tamar” (that is, En-gedi)."
2 Chronicles 20:1 After this, the Moabites and Ammonites, together with so
me of the
Meunites, ca
me to make war against Jehoshaphat.
2 Chronicles 19:10 For every dispute that co
mes before you from your brothers who dwell in their cities—whether it regards bloodshed or so
me other violation of law, command
ments, statutes, or ordinances—you are to warn them, so that they will not incur guilt before the LORD and wrath will not co
me upon you and your brothers. Do this, and you will not incur guilt."
2 Chronicles 19:8 Moreover, Jehoshaphat appointed in Jerusalem so
me of the Levites, priests, and heads of the Israelite families to judge on behalf of the LORD and to settle disputes. And they lived in Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 19:6 Then he said to the judges, “Consider carefully what you do, for you are not judging for man, but for the LORD, who is with you when you render judg
ment."
2 Chronicles 19:3 However, so
me good is found in you, for you have removed the Asherah poles from the land and have set your heart on seeking God.”"
2 Chronicles 19:1 When Jehoshaphat king of Judah had returned safely to his ho
me in Jerusalem,
2 Chronicles 18:34 The battle raged throughout that day, and the king of Israel propped himself up in his chariot facing the Ara
means until evening. And at sunset he died.
2 Chronicles 18:33 However, a certain man drew his bow without taking special aim, and he struck the king of Israel between the joints of his armor. So the king said to his charioteer, “Turn around and take
me out of the battle, for I am badly wounded!”"
2 Chronicles 18:27 But Micaiah replied, “If you ever return safely, the LORD has not spoken through
me.” Then he added, “Take heed, all you people!”"
2 Chronicles 18:23 Then Zedekiah son of Chenaanah went up, struck Micaiah in the face, and demanded, “Which way did the Spirit of the LORD go when He departed from
me to speak with you?”"
2 Chronicles 18:20 Then a spirit ca
me forward, stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’ ‘By what
means?’ asked the LORD."
2 Chronicles 18:17 Then the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not tell you that he never prophesies good for
me, but only bad?”"
2 Chronicles 18:16 So Micaiah declared: “I saw all Israel scattered on the hills like sheep without a shepherd. And the LORD said, ‘These people have no master; let each one return ho
me in peace.’”"
2 Chronicles 18:15 But the king said to him, “How many ti
mes must I make you swear not to tell
me anything but the truth in the na
me of the LORD?”"
2 Chronicles 18:13 But Micaiah said, “As surely as the LORD lives, I will speak whatever my God tells
me.”"
2 Chronicles 18:12 Then the
messenger who had gone to call Micaiah instructed him, “Behold, with one accord the words of the prophets are favorable to the king. So please let your words be like theirs, and speak favorably.”"
2 Chronicles 18:11 And all the prophets were prophesying the sa
me, saying, “Go up to Ramoth-gilead and prosper, for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.”"
2 Chronicles 18:10 Now Zedekiah son of Chenaanah had made for himself iron horns and declared, “This is what the LORD says: ‘With these you shall gore the Ara
means until they are finished off.’”"
2 Chronicles 18:7 The king of Israel answered, “There is still one man who can ask the LORD, but I hate him because he never prophesies anything good for
me, but only bad. He is Micaiah son of Imlah.” “The king should not say that!” Jehoshaphat replied."
2 Chronicles 18:5 So the king of Israel assembled the prophets, four hundred
men, and asked them, “Should we go to war against Ramoth-gilead, or should we refrain?” “Go up,” they replied, “and God will deliver it into the hand of the king.”"
2 Chronicles 18:3 Ahab king of Israel asked Jehoshaphat king of Judah, “Will you go with
me against Ramoth-gilead?” And Jehoshaphat replied, “I am like you, and my people are your people; we will join you in the war.”"
2 Chronicles 18:2 And so
me years later he went down to visit Ahab in Samaria, where Ahab sacrificed many sheep and cattle for him and the people with him, and urged him to march up to Ramoth-gilead.
2 Chronicles 17:19 These were the
men who served the king, besides those he stationed in the fortified cities throughout Judah.
2 Chronicles 17:17 From Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valor, and with him 200,000 ar
med with bows and shields;
2 Chronicles 17:16 and next to him, Amasiah son of Zichri, the volunteer for the LORD, and with him 200,000 mighty
men of valor.
2 Chronicles 17:14 These are their numbers according to the houses of their fathers: From Judah, the commanders of thousands: Adnah the commander, and with him 300,000 mighty
men of valor;
2 Chronicles 17:13 and kept vast supplies in the cities of Judah. He also had warriors in Jerusalem who were mighty
men of valor.
2 Chronicles 17:11 So
me Philistines also brought gifts and silver as tribute to Jehoshaphat, and the Arabs brought him 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats from their flocks.
2 Chronicles 17:4 but he sought the God of his father and walked by His command
ments rather than the practices of Israel.
2 Chronicles 16:14 And he was buried in the tomb that he had cut out for himself in the City of David. They laid him on a bier that was full of spices and various blended perfu
mes; then they made a great fire in his honor.
2 Chronicles 16:12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa beca
me diseased in his feet, and his malady beca
me increasingly severe. Yet even in his illness he did not seek the LORD, but only the physicians.
2 Chronicles 16:10 Asa was angry with the seer and beca
me so enraged over this matter that he put the man in prison. And at the sa
me ti
me Asa oppressed so
me of the people.
2 Chronicles 16:8 Were not the Cushites and Libyans a vast army with many chariots and horse
men? Yet because you relied on the LORD, He delivered them into your hand.
2 Chronicles 16:7 At that ti
me Hanani the seer ca
me to King Asa of Judah and told him, “Because you have relied on the king of Aram and not on the LORD your God, the army of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand."
2 Chronicles 16:6 Then King Asa brought all the
men of Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah and the timbers Baasha had used for building. And with these materials he built up Geba and Mizpah.
2 Chronicles 16:3 “Let there be a treaty between
me and you, between my father and your father. See, I have sent you silver and gold. Now go and break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from
me.”"
2 Chronicles 16:2 So Asa withdrew the silver and gold from the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the royal palace, and he sent it with this
message to Ben-hadad king of Aram, who was ruling in Damascus:
2 Chronicles 15:11 At that ti
me they sacrificed to the LORD seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep from all the plunder they had brought back.
2 Chronicles 15:9 And he assembled all Judah and Benjamin, along with those from the tribes of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Si
meon who had settled among them, for great numbers had co
me over to him from Israel when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.
2 Chronicles 15:2 So he went out to
meet Asa and said to him, “Listen to
me, Asa and all Judah and Benjamin. The LORD is with you when you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you, but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you."
2 Chronicles 14:15 They also attacked the tents of the herds
men and carried off many sheep and ca
mels. Then they returned to Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 14:11 Then Asa cried out to the LORD his God: “O LORD, there is no one besides You to help the powerless against the mighty. Help us, O LORD our God, for we rely on You, and in Your na
me we have co
me against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God. Do not let a
mere mortal prevail against You.”"
2 Chronicles 14:9 Then Zerah the Cushite ca
me against them with an army of 1,000,000
men and 300 chariots, and they advanced as far as Mareshah.
2 Chronicles 14:8 Asa had an army of 300,000
men from Judah bearing large shields and spears, and 280,000
men from Benjamin bearing small shields and drawing the bow. All these were mighty
men of valor.
2 Chronicles 14:4 He commanded the people of Judah to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, and to observe the law and the command
ments.
2 Chronicles 13:21 But Abijah grew strong, married fourteen wives, and beca
me the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
2 Chronicles 13:19 Abijah pursued Jeroboam and captured so
me cities from him: Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, along with their villages.
2 Chronicles 13:18 Thus the Israelites were subdued at that ti
me, and the
men of Judah prevailed because they relied on the LORD, the God of their fathers.
2 Chronicles 13:17 Then Abijah and his people struck them with a mighty blow, and 500,000 chosen
men of Israel fell slain.
2 Chronicles 13:15 and the
men of Judah raised the battle cry. And when they raised the cry, God routed Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
2 Chronicles 13:11 Every morning and every evening they present burnt offerings and fragrant incense to the LORD. They set out the rows of showbread on the ceremonially clean table, and every evening they light the lamps of the gold lampstand. We are carrying out the require
ments of the LORD our God, while you have forsaken Him.
2 Chronicles 13:9 But did you not drive out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites? And did you not make priests for yourselves as do the peoples of other lands? Now whoever co
mes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams can beco
me a priest of things that are not gods.
2 Chronicles 13:7 Then worthless and wicked
men gathered around him to resist Rehoboam son of Solomon when he was young, inexperienced, and unable to resist them.
2 Chronicles 13:4 Then Abijah stood on Mount Zemaraim in the hill country of Ephraim and said, “Hear
me, O Jeroboam and all Israel!"
2 Chronicles 13:3 Abijah went into battle with an army of 400,000 chosen
men, while Jeroboam drew up in formation against him with 800,000 chosen and mighty
men of valor.
2 Chronicles 13:2 and he reigned in Jerusalem three years. His mother’s na
me was Micaiah daughter of Uriel; she was from Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam."
2 Chronicles 13:1 In the eighteenth year of Jeroboam’s reign, Abijah beca
me king of Judah,"
2 Chronicles 12:13 Thus King Rehoboam established himself in Jerusalem. He was forty-one years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the LORD had chosen from all the tribes of Israel in which to put His Na
me. His mother’s na
me was Naamah the Ammonite."
2 Chronicles 12:8 Nevertheless, they will beco
me his servants, so that they may learn the difference between serving
Me and serving the kings of other lands.”"
2 Chronicles 12:7 When the LORD saw that they had humbled themselves, the word of the LORD ca
me to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves; I will not destroy them, but will soon grant them deliverance. My wrath will not be poured out on Jerusalem through Shishak."
2 Chronicles 12:5 Then Shemaiah the prophet ca
me to Rehoboam and the leaders of Judah who had gathered at Jerusalem because of Shishak, and he said to them, “This is what the LORD says: ‘You have forsaken
Me; therefore, I have forsaken you into the hand of Shishak.’”"
2 Chronicles 12:4 He captured the fortified cities of Judah and ca
me as far as Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 12:3 with 1,200 chariots, 60,000 horse
men, and countless troops who ca
me with him out of Egypt—Libyans, Sukkites, and Cushites."
2 Chronicles 12:2 In the fifth year of Rehoboam’s reign, because they had been unfaithful to the LORD, Shishak king of Egypt ca
me up and attacked Jerusalem"
2 Chronicles 11:23 Rehoboam also acted wisely by dispersing so
me of his sons throughout the districts of Judah and Benjamin, and to all the fortified cities. He gave them abundant provisions and sought many wives for them.
2 Chronicles 11:4 that this is what the LORD says: ‘You are not to go up and fight against your brothers. Each of you must return ho
me, for this word is from
Me.’” So they listened to the words of the LORD and turned back from going against Jeroboam."
2 Chronicles 10:16 When all Israel saw that the king had refused to listen to them, they answered the king: “What portion do we have in David, and what inheritance in the son of Jesse? To your tents, O Israel! Look now to your own house, O David!” So all the Israelites went ho
me,"
2 Chronicles 10:14 and spoke to them as the young
men had advised, saying, “Whereas my father made your yoke heavy, I will add to your yoke. Whereas my father scourged you with whips, I will scourge you with scorpions.”"
2 Chronicles 10:12 After three days, Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam, since the king had said, “Co
me back to
me on the third day.”"
2 Chronicles 10:10 The young
men who had grown up with him replied, “This is how you should answer these people who said to you, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you should make it lighter.’ This is what you should tell them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist!"
2 Chronicles 10:9 He asked them, “What
message do you advise that we send back to these people who have spoken to
me, saying, ‘Lighten the yoke your father put on us’?”"
2 Chronicles 10:8 But Rehoboam rejected the advice of the elders; instead, he consulted the young
men who had grown up with him and served him.
2 Chronicles 10:6 Then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon during his lifeti
me. “How do you advise
me to respond to these people?” he asked."
2 Chronicles 10:5 Rehoboam answered, “Co
me back to
me in three days.” So the people departed."
2 Chronicles 10:3 So they sent for Jeroboam, and he and all Israel ca
me to Rehoboam and said,
2 Chronicles 9:16 He also made three hundred small shields of ham
mered gold; three hundred shekels of gold went into each shield. And the king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.
2 Chronicles 9:15 King Solomon made two hundred large shields of ham
mered gold; six hundred shekels of ham
mered gold went into each shield.
2 Chronicles 9:14 not including the revenue from the
merchants and traders. And all the Arabian kings and governors of the land also brought gold and silver to Solomon.
2 Chronicles 9:7 How blessed are your
men! How blessed are these servants of yours who stand continually before you and hear your wisdom!
2 Chronicles 9:6 But I did not believe the reports until I ca
me and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, not half of the greatness of your wisdom was told to
me. You have far exceeded the report I heard.
2 Chronicles 9:1 Now when the queen of Sheba heard about the fa
me of Solomon, she ca
me to test him with difficult questions. She arrived in Jerusalem with a very large caravan—with ca
mels bearing spices, gold in abundance, and precious stones. So she ca
me to Solomon and spoke with him about all that was on her mind."
2 Chronicles 8:14 In keeping with the ordinances of his father David, Solomon appointed the divisions of the priests over their service, and the Levites for their duties to offer praise and to minister before the priests according to the daily require
ment. He also appointed gatekeepers by their divisions at each gate, for this had been the command of David, the man of God.
2 Chronicles 8:13 He observed the daily require
ment for offerings according to the command
ment of Moses for Sabbaths, New Moons, and the three annual appointed feasts—the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles."
2 Chronicles 8:12 At that ti
me Solomon offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of the LORD he had built in front of the portico.
2 Chronicles 8:9 But Solomon did not consign any of the Israelites to slave labor, because they were his
men of war, his officers and captains, and the commanders of his chariots and cavalry.
2 Chronicles 7:21 And when this temple has beco
me a heap of rubble, all who pass by it will be appalled and say, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this land and to this temple?’"
2 Chronicles 7:20 then I will uproot Israel from the soil I have given them, and I will banish from My presence this temple I have sanctified for My Na
me. I will make it an object of scorn and ridicule among all the peoples.
2 Chronicles 7:19 But if you turn away and forsake the statutes and command
ments I have set before you, and if you go off to serve and worship other gods,
2 Chronicles 7:17 And as for you, if you walk before
Me as your father David walked, doing all I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and ordinances,
2 Chronicles 7:16 For I have now chosen and consecrated this temple so that My Na
me may be there forever. My eyes and My heart will be there for all ti
me.
2 Chronicles 7:14 and if My people who are called by My na
me humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.
♫4 2 Chronicles 7:10 On the twenty-third day of the seventh month, Solomon sent the people away to their ho
mes, joyful and glad of heart for the good things that the LORD had done for David, for Solomon, and for His people Israel.
2 Chronicles 7:8 So at that ti
me Solomon and all Israel with him—a very great assembly of people from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of Egypt—kept the feast for seven days."
2 Chronicles 7:6 The priests stood at their posts, as did the Levites with the musical instru
ments of the LORD, which King David had made for giving thanks to the LORD and with which David had offered praise, saying, “For His loving devotion endures forever.” Across from the Levites, the priests sounded trumpets, and all the Israelites were standing."
2 Chronicles 7:3 When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of the LORD above the temple, they bowed down on the pave
ment with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave thanks to the LORD: “For He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.”"
2 Chronicles 7:1 When Solomon had finished praying, fire ca
me down from heaven and consu
med the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.
2 Chronicles 6:42 O LORD God, do not reject Your anointed one. Re
member Your loving devotion to Your servant David.”"
2 Chronicles 6:38 and when they return to You with all their heart and soul in the land of the enemies who took them captive, and when they pray in the direction of the land that You gave to their fathers, the city You have chosen, and the house I have built for Your Na
me,
2 Chronicles 6:37 and when they co
me to their senses in the land to which they were taken, and they repent and plead with You in the land of their captors, saying, ‘We have sinned and done wrong; we have acted wickedly,’"
2 Chronicles 6:36 When they sin against You—for there is no one who does not sin—and You beco
me angry with them and deliver them to an enemy who takes them as captives to a land far or near,"
2 Chronicles 6:34 When Your people go to war against their enemies, wherever You send them, and when they pray to You in the direction of the city You have chosen and the house I have built for Your Na
me,
2 Chronicles 6:33 then may You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You. Then all the peoples of the earth will know Your na
me and fear You, as do Your people Israel, and they will know that this house I have built is called by Your Na
me.
2 Chronicles 6:32 And as for the foreigner who is not of Your people Israel but has co
me from a distant land because of Your great na
me and Your mighty hand and outstretched arm—when he co
mes and prays toward this temple,"
2 Chronicles 6:30 be heard by You from heaven, Your dwelling place. And may You forgive and repay each man according to all his ways, since You know his heart—for You alone know the hearts of
men—"
2 Chronicles 6:28 When famine or plague co
mes upon the land, or blight or mildew or locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemies besiege them in their cities, whatever plague or sickness may co
me,
2 Chronicles 6:26 When the skies are shut and there is no rain because Your people have sinned against You, and they pray toward this place and confess Your na
me, and they turn from their sins because You have afflicted them,
2 Chronicles 6:24 When Your people Israel are defeated before an enemy because they have sinned against You, and they return to You and confess Your na
me, praying and pleading before You in this temple,
2 Chronicles 6:22 When a man sins against his neighbor and is required to take an oath, and he co
mes to take an oath before Your altar in this temple,
2 Chronicles 6:20 May Your eyes be open toward this temple day and night, toward the place where You said You would put Your Na
me, so that You may hear the prayer that Your servant prays toward this place.
2 Chronicles 6:16 Therefore now, O LORD, God of Israel, keep for Your servant, my father David, what You promised when You said: ‘You will never fail to have a man to sit before
Me on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants guard their way to walk in My law as you have walked before
Me.’"
2 Chronicles 6:10 Now the LORD has fulfilled the word that He spoke. I have succeeded my father David, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised. I have built the house for the Na
me of the LORD, the God of Israel.
2 Chronicles 6:9 Nevertheless, you are not the one to build it; but your son, your own offspring, will build the house for My Na
me.’"
2 Chronicles 6:8 But the LORD said to my father David, ‘Since it was in your heart to build a house for My Na
me, you have done well to have this in your heart."
2 Chronicles 6:7 Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the Na

me out of Egypt.

men and with those of my lord, your father David.
2 Chronicles 2:9 to prepare for

me of the LORD my God to dedicate to Him for burning fragrant incense before Him, for displaying the showbread continuously, and for making burnt offerings every morning and evening as well as on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts of the LORD our God. This is ordained for Israel forever.
2 Chronicles 2:3 Then Solomon sent word to Hiram king of Tyre: “Do for
me as you did for my father David when you sent him cedars to build himself a house to live in."

me of the LORD and a royal palace for himself.

me king in his place."

1 Chronicles 29:24 All the officials and mighty
men, as well as all of King David’s sons, pledged their allegiance to King Solomon."

me, they designated David’s son Solomon as king, anointing him before the LORD as ruler, and Zadok as the priest."
1 Chronicles 29:19 And give my son Solomon a whole heart to keep and carry out all Your command
ments, decrees, and statutes, and to build Your palace for which I have made provision.”"
1 Chronicles 29:16 O LORD our God, from Your hand co
mes all this abundance that we have provided to build You a house for Your holy Na
me, and all of it belongs to You.
1 Chronicles 29:14 But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? For everything co
mes from You, and from Your own hand we have given to You.
1 Chronicles 29:13 Now therefore, our God, we give You thanks, and we praise Your glorious na
me.
1 Chronicles 29:12 Both riches and honor co
me from You, and You are the ruler over all. In Your hands are power and might to exalt and give strength to all.

men. Now who will volunteer to consecrate himself to the LORD today?”"
1 Chronicles 28:19 “All this,” said David, “all the details of this plan, the LORD has made clear to
me in writing by His hand upon
me.”"

mercy seat.

ments of the LORD your God, so that you may possess this good land and leave it as an inheritance to your descendants forever.

me many sons—He has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel."

me out of all my father’s house to be king over Israel forever. For He chose Judah as leader, and from the house of Judah He chose my father’s household, and from my father’s sons He was pleased to make
me king over all Israel."
1 Chronicles 28:3 but God said to
me, ‘You are not to build a house for My Na
me, because you are a man of war who has spilled blood.’"
1 Chronicles 28:2 Then King David rose to his feet and said, “Listen to
me, my brothers and my people. It was in my heart to build a house as a resting place for the ark of the covenant of the LORD and as a footstool for our God. I had made preparations to build it,"
1 Chronicles 28:1 Now David summoned all the leaders of Israel to Jerusalem: the leaders of the tribes, the leaders of the divisions in the king’s service, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and the officials in charge of all the property and cattle of the king and his sons, along with the court officials and mighty

me forever.
1 Chronicles 23:11 Jahath was the first and Zizah was the second; but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they were counted as one family and received a single assign

me of the LORD.”"
1 Chronicles 22:16 in gold and silver, bronze and iron—crafts

men skilled in every kind of work—"
1 Chronicles 22:10 He is the one who will build a house for My Na
me. He will be My son, and I will be his Father. And I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’"
1 Chronicles 22:9 But a son will be born to you who will be a man of rest. I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for his na
me will be Solomon, and I will grant to Israel peace and quiet during his reign.
1 Chronicles 22:8 but this word of the LORD ca
me to
me: ‘You have shed much blood and waged great wars. You are not to build a house for My Na
me because you have shed so much blood on the ground before
Me."
1 Chronicles 22:7 “My son,” said David to Solomon, “it was in my heart to build a house for the Na
me of the LORD my God,"
1 Chronicles 21:28 At that ti
me, when David saw that the LORD had answered him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he offered sacrifices there.
1 Chronicles 21:24 “No,” replied King David, “I insist on paying the full price, for I will not take for the LORD what belongs to you, nor will I offer burnt offerings that cost
me nothing.”"
1 Chronicles 21:22 Then David said to Ornan, “Grant
me the site of this threshing floor, that I may build an altar to the LORD. Sell it to
me for the full price, so that the plague upon the people may be halted.”"
1 Chronicles 21:21 David ca
me to Ornan, and when Ornan looked out and saw David, he left the threshing floor and bowed facedown before David.
1 Chronicles 21:19 So David went up at the word that Gad had spoken in the na
me of the LORD.
1 Chronicles 21:17 And David said to God, “Was it not I who gave the order to count the people? I am the one who has sinned and acted wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? O LORD my God, please let Your hand fall upon
me and my father’s house, but do not let this plague remain upon Your people.”"
1 Chronicles 21:15 Then God sent an angel to destroy Jerusalem, but as the angel was doing so, the LORD saw it and relented from the calamity, and He said to the angel who was destroying the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand now!” At that ti
me the angel of the LORD was standing by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite."
1 Chronicles 21:14 So the LORD sent a plague upon Israel, and seventy thousand
men of Israel fell dead.
1 Chronicles 21:13 David answered Gad, “I am deeply distressed. Please, let
me fall into the hand of the LORD, for His
mercies are very great; but do not let
me fall into the hands of
men.”"
1 Chronicles 21:12 between three years of famine, three months of being swept away before your enemies and overtaken by their swords, or three days of the sword of the LORD—days of plague upon the land, with the angel of the LORD ravaging every part of Israel.’ Now then, decide how I should reply to Him who sent
me.”"
1 Chronicles 21:5 And Joab reported to David the total number of the troops. In all Israel there were 1,100,000
men who drew the sword, including 470,000 in Judah.
1 Chronicles 21:3 But Joab replied, “May the LORD multiply His troops a hundred ti
mes over. My lord the king, are they not all servants of my lord? Why does my lord want to do this? Why should he bring guilt on Israel?”"
1 Chronicles 21:2 So David said to Joab and the commanders of the troops, “Go and count the Israelites from Beersheba to Dan and bring
me a report, so that I may know their number.”"
1 Chronicles 20:7 and when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of David’s brother Shi
mei killed him."
1 Chronicles 20:4 So
me ti
me later, war broke out with the Philistines at Gezer. At that ti
me Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Sippai, a descendant of the Rephaim, and the Philistines were subdued.
1 Chronicles 20:3 David brought out the people who were there and put them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes. And he did the sa
me to all the Ammonite cities. Then David and all his troops returned to Jerusalem.
1 Chronicles 20:1 In the spring, at the ti
me when kings march out to war, Joab led out the army and ravaged the land of the Ammonites. He ca
me to Rabbah and besieged it, but David remained in Jerusalem. And Joab attacked Rabbah and demolished it.
1 Chronicles 19:19 When Hadadezer’s subjects saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with David and beca
me subject to him. So the Ara
means were unwilling to help the Ammonites anymore."
1 Chronicles 19:18 But the Ara
means fled before Israel, and David killed seven thousand of their charioteers and forty thousand foot soldiers. He also killed Shophach the commander of their army.
1 Chronicles 19:17 When this was reported to David, he gathered all Israel, crossed the Jordan, advanced toward the Ara
means, and arrayed for battle against them. When David lined up to engage them in battle, they fought against him.
1 Chronicles 19:16 When the Ara
means saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they sent
messengers to bring more Ara
means from beyond the Euphrates, with Shophach the commander of Hadadezer’s army leading them."
1 Chronicles 19:15 When the Ammonites saw that the Ara
means had fled, they too fled before Joab’s brother Abishai, and they entered the city. So Joab went back to Jerusalem."
1 Chronicles 19:14 So Joab and his troops advanced to fight the Ara
means, who fled before him.
1 Chronicles 19:12 “If the Ara
means are too strong for
me,” said Joab, “then you will co
me to my rescue. And if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will co
me to your rescue."
1 Chronicles 19:10 When Joab saw the battle lines before him and behind him, he selected so
me of the best
men of Israel and arrayed them against the Ara
means.
1 Chronicles 19:9 The Ammonites marched out and arrayed themselves for battle at the entrance to the city, while the kings who had co
me stayed by themselves in the open country.
1 Chronicles 19:8 On hearing this, David sent Joab and the entire army of mighty
men.
1 Chronicles 19:7 So they hired for themselves thirty-two thousand chariots, as well as the king of Maacah with his troops, who ca
me and camped near
Medeba while the Ammonites ca
me from their cities and marched out for battle.
1 Chronicles 19:6 When the Ammonites realized that they had beco
me a stench to David, Hanun and the Ammonites sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for themselves chariots and horse
men from Aram-naharaim, Aram-maacah, and Zobah.
1 Chronicles 19:5 When so
meone ca
me and told David about his
men, he sent
messengers to
meet them, since the
men had been thoroughly humiliated. The king told them, “Stay in Jericho until your beards have grown back, and then return.”"
1 Chronicles 19:4 So Hanun took David’s servants, shaved their beards, cut off their gar
ments at the hips, and sent them away."
1 Chronicles 19:3 the princes of the Ammonites said to Hanun, “Just because David has sent you comforters, do you really believe he is showing respect for your father? Have not his servants co
me to you to explore the land, spy it out, and overthrow it?”"
1 Chronicles 19:2 And David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to
me.” So David sent
messengers to console Hanun concerning his father. But when David’s servants arrived in the land of the Ammonites to console him,"
1 Chronicles 19:1 So
me ti
me later, Nahash king of the Ammonites died and was succeeded by his son.
1 Chronicles 18:16 Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahi
melech son of Abiathar were priests; Shavsha was the scribe;
1 Chronicles 18:6 Then he placed garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Ara
means beca
me subject to David and brought him tribute. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
1 Chronicles 18:5 When the Ara
means of Damascus ca
me to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand
men.
1 Chronicles 18:2 David also defeated the Moabites, and they beca
me subject to David and brought him tribute.
1 Chronicles 18:1 So
me ti
me later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took Gath and its villages from the hand of the Philistines.
1 Chronicles 17:24 so that Your na
me will be established and magnified forever when it is said, ‘The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, is God over Israel.’ And may the house of Your servant David be established before You."
1 Chronicles 17:22 For You have made Your people Israel Your very own forever, and You, O LORD, have beco
me their God.
1 Chronicles 17:21 And who is like Your people Israel—the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem as a people for Himself? You made a na
me for Yourself through great and aweso
me wonders by driving out nations from before Your people, whom You redee
med from Egypt."
1 Chronicles 17:17 And as if this was a small thing in Your eyes, O God, You have spoken about the future of the house of Your servant and have regarded
me as a man of great distinction, O LORD God.
1 Chronicles 17:16 Then King David went in, sat before the LORD, and said, “Who am I, O LORD God, and what is my house, that You have brought
me this far?"
1 Chronicles 17:8 I have been with you wherever you have gone, and I have cut off all your enemies from before you. Now I will make for you a na
me like the greatest in the land.
1 Chronicles 17:6 In all My journeys with all the Israelites, have I ever asked any of the leaders I appointed to shepherd My people, ‘Why haven’t you built
Me a house of cedar?’"
1 Chronicles 17:4 “Go and tell My servant David that this is what the LORD says: You are not the one to build
Me a house in which to dwell."
1 Chronicles 16:43 Then all the people departed for their ho
mes, and David returned ho

1 Chronicles 11:19 saying, “Far be it from

men."
1 Chronicles 11:17 David longed for water and said, “Oh, that so

1 Chronicles 11:1 Then all Israel ca

men of valor set out and retrieved the bodies of Saul and his sons and brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh and fasted seven days.
1 Chronicles 10:9 They stripped Saul, cut off his head, took his armor, and sent

1 Chronicles 10:7 When all the Israelites in the valley saw that the army had fled and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their cities and ran away. So the Philistines ca

1 Chronicles 10:4 Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and run it through
me, or these uncircumcised
men will co
me and torture
me!” But his armor-bearer was terrified and refused to do it. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it."

2 Kings 25:24 And Gedaliah took an oath before them and their
men, assuring them, “Do not be afraid of the servants of the Chaldeans. Live in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and it will be well with you.”"
2 Kings 25:23 When all the commanders of the armies and their
men heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah as governor, they ca
me to Gedaliah at Mizpah—Ishmael son of Nethaniah, Johanan son of Kareah, Seraiah son of Tanhu
meth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah son of the Maacathite, as well as their
men."
2 Kings 25:19 Of those still in the city, he took a court official who had been appointed over the
men of war, as well as five royal advisors. He also took the scribe of the captain of the army, who had enlisted the people of the land, and sixty
men who were found in the city.
2 Kings 25:17 Each pillar was eighteen cubits tall. The bronze capital atop one pillar was three cubits high, with a network of bronze po
megranates all around. The second pillar, with its network, was similar.
2 Kings 25:16 As for the two pillars, the Sea, and the movable stands that Solomon had made for the house of the LORD, the weight of the bronze from all these articles was beyond
measure.
2 Kings 25:14 They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trim
mers, dishes, and all the articles of bronze used in the temple service.
2 Kings 25:12 But the captain of the guard left behind so
me of the poorest of the land to tend the vineyards and fields.
2 Kings 25:6 The Chaldeans seized the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, where they pronounced judg
ment on him.
2 Kings 25:4 Then the city was breached; and though the Chaldeans had surrounded the city, all the
men of war fled by night by way of the gate between the two walls near the king’s garden. They headed toward the Arabah,"
2 Kings 24:18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother’s na
me was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah."
2 Kings 24:17 Then the king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s uncle, king in his place and changed his na
me to Zedekiah."
2 Kings 24:16 The king of Babylon also brought into exile to Babylon all seven thousand
men of valor and a thousand crafts
men and
metalsmiths—all strong and fit for battle."
2 Kings 24:15 Nebuchadnezzar carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, as well as the king’s mother, his wives, his officials, and the leading
men of the land. He took them into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon."
2 Kings 24:14 He carried into exile all Jerusalem—all the commanders and mighty
men of valor, all the crafts
men and
metalsmiths—ten thousand captives in all. Only the poorest people of the land remained."
2 Kings 24:11 And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon ca
me to the city while his servants were besieging it.
2 Kings 24:10 At that ti
me the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched up to Jerusalem, and the city ca
me under siege.
2 Kings 24:8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s na
me was Nehushta daughter of Elnathan; she was from Jerusalem."
2 Kings 24:5 As for the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 24:2 And the LORD sent Chaldean, Ara
mean, Moabite, and Ammonite raiders against Jehoiakim in order to destroy Judah, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through His servants the prophets.
2 Kings 24:1 During Jehoiakim’s reign, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon invaded. So Jehoiakim beca
me his vassal for three years, until he turned and rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar."
2 Kings 23:36 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother’s na
me was Zebidah daughter of Pedaiah; she was from Rumah."
2 Kings 23:35 So Jehoiakim paid the silver and gold to Pharaoh Neco, but to
meet Pharaoh’s demand he taxed the land and exacted the silver and the gold from the people, each according to his wealth."
2 Kings 23:34 Then Pharaoh Neco made Eliakim son of Josiah king in place of his father Josiah, and he changed Eliakim’s na
me to Jehoiakim. But Neco took Jehoahaz and carried him off to Egypt, where he died."
2 Kings 23:31 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s na
me was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah."
2 Kings 23:30 From
Megiddo his servants carried his body in a chariot, brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own tomb. Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah, anointed him, and made him king in place of his father.
2 Kings 23:29 At the end of Josiah’s reign, Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt marched up to help the king of Assyria at the Euphrates River. King Josiah went out to confront him, but Neco faced him and killed him at
Megiddo."
2 Kings 23:28 As for the rest of the acts of Josiah, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 23:27 For the LORD had said, “I will remove Judah from My sight, just as I removed Israel. I will reject this city Jerusalem, which I chose, and the temple of which I said, ‘My Na
me shall be there.’”"
2 Kings 23:24 Furthermore, Josiah removed the
mediums and spiritists, the household gods and idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem. He did this to carry out the words of the law written in the book that Hilkiah the priest had found in the house of the LORD.
2 Kings 23:18 “Let him rest,” said Josiah. “Do not let anyone disturb his bones.” So they left his bones undisturbed, along with those of the prophet who had co
me from Samaria."
2 Kings 23:17 Then the king asked, “What is this monu
ment I see?” And the
men of the city replied, “It is the tomb of the man of God who ca
me from Judah and pronounced these things that you have done to the altar of Bethel.”"
2 Kings 23:16 And as Josiah turned, he saw the tombs there on the hillside, and he sent so
meone to take the bones out of the tombs, and he burned them on the altar to defile it, according to the word of the LORD proclai
med by the man of God who had foretold these things.
2 Kings 23:11 And he removed from the entrance to the house of the LORD the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun. They were in the court near the chamber of an official na
med Nathan-
melech. And Josiah burned up the chariots of the sun.
2 Kings 23:9 Although the priests of the high places did not co
me up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, they ate unleavened bread with their fellow priests.
2 Kings 23:7 He also tore down the quarters of the male shrine prostitutes that were in the house of the LORD, where the wo
men had woven tapestries for Asherah.
2 Kings 23:3 So the king stood by the pillar and made a covenant before the LORD to follow the LORD and to keep His command
ments, decrees, and statutes with all his heart and all his soul, and to carry out the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people entered into the covenant.
2 Kings 22:19 because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its people, that they would beco
me a desolation and a curse, and because you have torn your clothes and wept before
Me, I have heard you,’ declares the LORD."
2 Kings 22:17 because they have forsaken
Me and burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke
Me to anger with all the works of their hands. My wrath will be kindled against this place and will not be quenched.’"
2 Kings 22:13 “Go and inquire of the LORD for
me, for the people, and for all Judah concerning the words in this book that has been found. For great is the wrath of the LORD that burns against us because our fathers have not obeyed the words of this book by doing all that is written about us.”"
2 Kings 22:10 Moreover, Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given
me a book.” And Shaphan read it in the presence of the king."
2 Kings 22:5 And let them deliver it into the hands of the supervisors of those doing the work on the house of the LORD, who in turn are to give it to the work
men repairing the damages to the house of the LORD—"
2 Kings 22:3 Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, King Josiah sent the scribe, Shaphan son of Azaliah, the son of
Meshullam, to the house of the LORD, saying,
2 Kings 22:1 Josiah was eight years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem thirty-one years. His mother’s na
me was Jedidah daughter of Adaiah; she was from Bozkath."
2 Kings 21:25 As for the rest of the acts of Amon, along with his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 21:19 Amon was twenty-two years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years. His mother’s na
me was
Meshulle
meth daughter of Haruz; she was from Jotbah."
2 Kings 21:17 As for the rest of the acts of Manasseh, along with all his accomplish
ments and the sin that he committed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 21:15 because they have done evil in My sight and have provoked
Me to anger from the day their fathers ca
me out of Egypt until this day.’”"
2 Kings 21:14 So I will forsake the remnant of My inheritance and deliver them into the hands of their enemies. And they will beco
me plunder and spoil to all their enemies,
2 Kings 21:13 I will stretch out over Jerusalem the
measuring line used against Samaria and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab, and I will wipe out Jerusalem as one wipes out a bowl—wiping it and turning it upside down."
2 Kings 21:7 Manasseh even took the carved Asherah pole he had made and set it up in the temple, of which the LORD had said to David and his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will establish My Na
me forever."
2 Kings 21:6 He sacrificed his own son in the fire, practiced sorcery and divination, and consulted
mediums and spiritists. He did great evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
2 Kings 21:4 Manasseh also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “In Jerusalem I will put My Na
me.”"
2 Kings 21:1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years. His mother’s na
me was Hephzibah."
2 Kings 20:19 But Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the LORD that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “Will there not at least be peace and security in my lifeti
me?”"
2 Kings 20:18 And so
me of your descendants, your own flesh and blood, will be taken away to be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”"
2 Kings 20:17 The ti
me will surely co
me when everything in your palace and all that your fathers have stored up until this day will be carried off to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says the LORD.
2 Kings 20:14 Then the prophet Isaiah went to King Hezekiah and asked, “Where did those
men co
me from, and what did they say to you?” “They ca
me from a distant land,” Hezekiah replied, “from Babylon.”"
2 Kings 20:12 At that ti
me Merodach-baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, for he had heard about Hezekiah’s illness."
2 Kings 20:8 Now Hezekiah had asked Isaiah, “What will be the sign that the LORD will heal
me and that I will go up to the house of the LORD on the third day?”"
2 Kings 20:4 Before Isaiah had left the middle courtyard, the word of the LORD ca
me to him, saying,
2 Kings 20:3 “Please, O LORD, re
member how I have walked before You faithfully and with wholehearted devotion; I have done what was good in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly."
2 Kings 20:1 In those days Hezekiah beca
me mortally ill. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz ca
me to him and said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Put your house in order, for you are about to die; you will not recover.’”"
2 Kings 19:37 One day, while he was worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch, his sons Adram
melech and Sharezer put him to the sword and escaped to the land of Ararat. And his son Esar-haddon reigned in his place.
2 Kings 19:35 And that very night the angel of the LORD went out and struck down 185,000
men in the camp of the Assyrians. When the people got up the next morning, there were all the dead bodies!
2 Kings 19:33 He will go back the way he ca
me, and he will not enter this city,’ declares the LORD."
2 Kings 19:32 So this is what the LORD says about the king of Assyria: ‘He will not enter this city or shoot an arrow into it. He will not co
me before it with a shield or build up a siege ramp against it."
2 Kings 19:29 And this will be a sign to you, O Hezekiah: This year you will eat what grows on its own, and in the second year what springs from the sa
me. But in the third year you will sow and reap; you will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
2 Kings 19:28 Because your rage and arrogance against
Me have reached My ears, I will put My hook in your nose and My bit in your mouth; I will send you back the way you ca
me.’"
2 Kings 19:27 But I know your sitting down, your going out and coming in, and your raging against
Me.
2 Kings 19:26 Therefore their inhabitants, devoid of power, are dismayed and asha
med. They are like plants in the field, tender green shoots, grass on the rooftops, scorched before it is grown.
2 Kings 19:22 Whom have you taunted and blasphe
med? Against whom have you raised your voice and lifted your eyes in pride? Against the Holy One of Israel!
2 Kings 19:20 Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent a
message to Hezekiah: “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: I have heard your prayer concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria."
2 Kings 19:14 So Hezekiah received the letter from the
messengers, read it, and went up to the house of the LORD and spread it out before the LORD.
2 Kings 19:10 “Give this
message to Hezekiah king of Judah: ‘Do not let your God, in whom you trust, deceive you by saying that Jerusalem will not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria."
2 Kings 19:9 Now Sennacherib had been warned about Tirhakah king of Cush: “Look, he has set out to fight against you.” So Sennacherib again sent
messengers to Hezekiah, saying,"
2 Kings 19:6 who replied, “Tell your master that this is what the LORD says: ‘Do not be afraid of the words you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphe
med
Me."
2 Kings 19:3 to tell him, “This is what Hezekiah says: Today is a day of distress, rebuke, and disgrace; for children have co
me to the point of birth, but there is no strength to deliver them."
2 Kings 18:37 Then Hilkiah’s son Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah the recorder ca
me to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they relayed to him the words of the Rabshakeh."
2 Kings 18:32 until I co
me and take you away to a land like your own—a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and honey—so that you may live and not die. But do not listen to Hezekiah, for he misleads you when he says, ‘The LORD will deliver us.’"
2 Kings 18:31 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with
me and co
me out to
me. Then every one of you will eat from his own vine and his own fig tree, and drink water from his own cistern,
2 Kings 18:27 But the Rabshakeh replied, “Has my master sent
me to speak these words only to you and your master, and not to the
men sitting on the wall, who are destined with you to eat their own dung and drink their own urine?”"
2 Kings 18:25 So now, was it apart from the LORD that I have co
me up against this place to destroy it? The LORD Himself said to
me, ‘Go up against this land and destroy it.’”"
2 Kings 18:24 For how can you repel a single officer among the least of my master’s servants when you depend on Egypt for chariots and horse
men?"
2 Kings 18:22 But if you say to
me, ‘We trust in the LORD our God,’ is He not the One whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem: ‘You must worship before this altar in Jerusalem’?"
2 Kings 18:20 You claim to have a strategy and strength for war, but these are empty words. In whom are you now trusting, that you have rebelled against
me?
2 Kings 18:16 At that ti
me Hezekiah stripped the gold with which he had plated the doors and doorposts of the temple of the LORD, and he gave it to the king of Assyria.
2 Kings 18:14 So Hezekiah king of Judah sent word to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have done wrong; withdraw from
me, and I will pay whatever you demand from
me.” And the king of Assyria exacted from Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold."
2 Kings 18:11 The king of Assyria exiled the Israelites to Assyria and settled them in Halah, in Gozan by the Habor River, and in the cities of the
Medes.
2 Kings 18:6 He remained faithful to the LORD and did not turn from following Him; he kept the command
ments that the LORD had given Moses.
2 Kings 18:4 He removed the high places, shattered the sacred pillars, and cut down the Asherah poles. He also demolished the bronze snake called Nehushtan that Moses had made, for up to that ti
me the Israelites had burned incense to it.
2 Kings 18:2 He was twenty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s na
me was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah."
2 Kings 18:1 In the third year of the reign of Hoshea son of Elah over Israel, Hezekiah son of Ahaz beca
me king of Judah.
2 Kings 17:40 But they would not listen, and they persisted in their for
mer customs.
2 Kings 17:37 And you must always be careful to observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and command
ments He wrote for you. Do not worship other gods.
2 Kings 17:34 To this day they are still practicing their for
mer customs. None of them worship the LORD or observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and command
ments that the LORD gave the descendants of Jacob, whom He na
med Israel.
2 Kings 17:31 the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burned their children in the fire to Adram
melech and Anam
melech the gods of Sepharvaim.
2 Kings 17:30 The
men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, the
men of Cuth made Nergal, the
men of Hamath made Ashima,
2 Kings 17:28 Thus one of the priests they had carried away ca
me and lived in Bethel, and he began to teach them how they should worship the LORD.
2 Kings 17:27 Then the king of Assyria commanded: “Send back one of the priests you carried off from Samaria, and have him go back to live there and teach the require
ments of the God of the land.”"
2 Kings 17:26 So they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, “The peoples that you have removed and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the require
ments of the God of the land. Because of this, He has sent lions among them, which are indeed killing them off.”"
2 Kings 17:25 Now when the settlers first lived there, they did not worship the LORD, so He sent lions among them, which killed so
me of them.
2 Kings 17:23 Finally, the LORD removed Israel from His presence, as He had declared through all His servants the prophets. So Israel was exiled from their ho
meland into Assyria, where they are to this day.
2 Kings 17:19 and even Judah did not keep the command
ments of the LORD their God, but lived according to the customs Israel had introduced.
2 Kings 17:16 They abandoned all the command
ments of the LORD their God and made for themselves two cast idols of calves and an Asherah pole. They bowed down to all the host of heaven and served Baal.
2 Kings 17:15 They rejected His statutes and the covenant He had made with their fathers, as well as the decrees He had given them. They pursued worthless idols and themselves beca
me worthless, going after the surrounding nations that the LORD had commanded them not to imitate.
2 Kings 17:13 Yet through all His prophets and seers, the LORD warned Israel and Judah, saying, “Turn from your wicked ways and keep My command
ments and statutes, according to the entire Law that I commanded your fathers and delivered to you through My servants the prophets.”"
2 Kings 17:6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria and carried away the Israelites to Assyria, where he settled them in Halah, in Gozan by the Habor River, and in the cities of the
Medes.
2 Kings 17:3 Shalmaneser king of Assyria attacked him, and Hoshea beca
me his vassal and paid him tribute.
2 Kings 17:1 In the twelfth year of the reign of Ahaz over Judah, Hoshea son of Elah beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria nine years.
2 Kings 16:19 As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz, along with his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 16:17 King Ahaz also cut off the fra
mes of the movable stands and removed the bronze basin from each of them. He took down the Sea from the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone base.
2 Kings 16:12 When the king ca
me back from Damascus and saw the altar, he approached it and presented offerings on it.
2 Kings 16:11 And Uriah the priest built the altar according to all the instructions King Ahaz had sent from Damascus, and he completed it by the ti
me King Ahaz had returned.
2 Kings 16:10 Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to
meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria. On seeing the altar in Damascus, King Ahaz sent Uriah the priest a model of the altar and complete plans for its construction.
2 Kings 16:7 So Ahaz sent
messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Co
me up and save
me from the hands of the kings of Aram and Israel, who are rising up against
me.”"
2 Kings 16:6 At that ti
me Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram, drove out the
men of Judah, and sent the Edomites into Elath, where they live to this day.
2 Kings 16:5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel ca
me up to wage war against Jerusalem. They besieged Ahaz but could not overco
me him.
2 Kings 16:2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD his God.
2 Kings 16:1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham beca
me king of Judah.
2 Kings 15:36 As for the rest of the acts of Jotham, along with his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 15:33 He was twenty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s na
me was Jerusha daughter of Zadok."
2 Kings 15:32 In the second year of the reign of Pekah son of Remaliah over Israel, Jotham son of Uzziah beca
me king of Judah.
2 Kings 15:31 As for the rest of the acts of Pekah, along with all his accomplish
ments, they are indeed written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
2 Kings 15:29 In the days of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria ca
me and captured Ijon, Abel-beth-maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, Gilead, and Galilee, including all the land of Naphtali, and he took the people as captives to Assyria.
2 Kings 15:27 In the fifty-second year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Pekah son of Remaliah beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria twenty years."
2 Kings 15:26 As for the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, along with all his accomplish
ments, they are indeed written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
2 Kings 15:25 Then his officer, Pekah son of Remaliah, conspired against him along with Argob, Arieh, and fifty
men of Gilead. And at the citadel of the king’s palace in Samaria, Pekah struck down and killed Pekahiah and reigned in his place."
2 Kings 15:23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Pekahiah son of
Menahem beca
me king of Israel and reigned in Samaria two years."
2 Kings 15:22 And
Menahem rested with his fathers, and his son Pekahiah reigned in his place.
2 Kings 15:21 As for the rest of the acts of
Menahem, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
2 Kings 15:20 Menahem exacted this money from each of the wealthy
men of Israel—fifty shekels of silver from each man—to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria withdrew and did not remain in the land."
2 Kings 15:19 Then Pul king of Assyria invaded the land, and
Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver in order to gain his support and strengthen his own grip on the kingdom.
2 Kings 15:17 In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah’s reign over Judah,
Menahem son of Gadi beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria ten years."
2 Kings 15:16 At that ti
me Menahem, starting from Tirzah, attacked Tiphsah and everyone in its vicinity, because they would not open their gates. So he attacked Tiphsah and ripped open all the pregnant wo
men.
2 Kings 15:14 Then
Menahem son of Gadi went up from Tirzah to Samaria, struck down and killed Shallum son of Jabesh, and reigned in his place.
2 Kings 15:13 In the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah’s reign over Judah, Shallum son of Jabesh beca

2 Kings 15:8 In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria six months."
2 Kings 15:6 As for the rest of the acts of Azariah, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 15:2 He was sixteen years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s na
me was Jecoliah; she was from Jerusalem."
2 Kings 15:1 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam’s reign over Israel, Azariah son of Amaziah beca
me king of Judah."
2 Kings 14:28 As for the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, along with all his accomplish
ments and might, and how he waged war and recovered both Damascus and Hamath for Israel from Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
2 Kings 14:27 and since the LORD had said that He would not blot out the na
me of Israel from under heaven, He saved them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Jehoash.
2 Kings 14:23 In the fifteenth year of the reign of Amaziah son of Joash over Judah, Jeroboam son of Jehoash beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria forty-one years.
2 Kings 14:19 And conspirators plotted against Amaziah in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But
men were sent after him to Lachish, and they killed him there.
2 Kings 14:15 As for the rest of the acts of Jehoash, along with his accomplish
ments, his might, and how he waged war against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
2 Kings 14:14 He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the royal palace, as well as so
me hostages. Then he returned to Samaria.
2 Kings 14:13 There at Beth-she
mesh, Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Ahaziah. Then Jehoash went to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate—a section of four hundred cubits."
2 Kings 14:12 And Judah was routed before Israel, and every man fled to his ho
me.
2 Kings 14:11 But Amaziah would not listen, and Jehoash king of Israel advanced. He and King Amaziah of Judah faced each other at Beth-she
mesh in Judah.
2 Kings 14:10 You have indeed defeated Edom, and your heart has beco
me proud. Glory in that and stay at ho
me. Why should you stir up trouble so that you fall—you and Judah with you?”"
2 Kings 14:9 But Jehoash king of Israel replied to Amaziah king of Judah: “A thistle in Lebanon sent a
message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in marriage.’ Then a wild beast in Lebanon ca
me along and trampled the thistle."
2 Kings 14:8 Then Amaziah sent
messengers to the king of Israel Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu. “Co
me, let us
meet face to face,” he said."
2 Kings 14:7 Amaziah struck down 10,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. He took Sela in battle and called it Joktheel, which is its na
me to this very day.
2 Kings 14:2 He was twenty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s na
me was Jehoaddan; she was from Jerusalem."
2 Kings 14:1 In the second year of the reign of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz over Israel, Amaziah son of Joash beca
me king of Judah.
2 Kings 13:25 Then Jehoash son of Jehoahaz took back from Ben-hadad son of Hazael the cities that Hazael had taken in battle from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash defeated Ben-hadad three ti
mes, and so recovered the cities of Israel.
2 Kings 13:20 And Elisha died and was buried. Now the Moabite raiders used to co
me into the land every spring.
2 Kings 13:19 But the man of God was angry with him and said, “You should have struck the ground five or six ti
mes. Then you would have struck down Aram until you had put an end to it. But now you will strike down Aram only three ti
mes.”"
2 Kings 13:18 Then Elisha said, “Take the arrows!” So he took them, and Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground!” So he struck the ground three ti
mes and stopped."
2 Kings 13:17 “Open the east window,” said Elisha. So he opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot!” So he shot. And Elisha declared: “This is the LORD’s arrow of victory, the arrow of victory over Aram, for you shall strike the Ara
means in Aphek until you have put an end to them.”"
2 Kings 13:15 Elisha told him, “Take a bow and so
me arrows.” So Jehoash took a bow and so
me arrows."
2 Kings 13:14 When Elisha had fallen sick with the illness from which he would die, Jehoash king of Israel ca
me down to him and wept over him, saying, “My father, my father, the chariots and horse
men of Israel!”"
2 Kings 13:12 As for the rest of the acts of Jehoash, along with all his accomplish
ments and his might, including his war against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
2 Kings 13:10 In the thirty-seventh year of the reign of Joash over Judah, Jehoash son of Jehoahaz beca
me king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned sixteen years.
2 Kings 13:8 As for the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, along with all his accomplish
ments and his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
2 Kings 13:7 Jehoahaz had no army left, except fifty horse
men, ten chariots, and ten thousand foot soldiers, because the king of Aram had destroyed them and made them like the dust at threshing.
2 Kings 13:5 So the LORD gave Israel a deliverer, and they escaped the power of the Ara
means. Then the people of Israel lived in their own ho
mes as they had before.
2 Kings 13:1 In the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash son of Ahaziah over Judah, Jehoahaz son of Jehu beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria seventeen years.
2 Kings 12:21 His servants Jozabad son of Shi
meath and Jehozabad son of Sho
mer struck him down, and he died. And they buried him with his fathers in the City of David, and his son Amaziah reigned in his place.
2 Kings 12:20 And the servants of Joash rose up and for
med a conspiracy and killed him at Beth-millo, on the road down to Silla.
2 Kings 12:19 As for the rest of the acts of Joash, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 12:17 At that ti
me Hazael king of Aram marched up and fought against Gath and captured it. Then he decided to attack Jerusalem.
2 Kings 12:15 No accounting was required from the
men who received the money to pay the work
men, because they acted with integrity.
2 Kings 12:13 However, the money brought into the house of the LORD was not used for making silver basins, wick trim
mers, sprinkling bowls, trumpets, or any articles of gold or silver for the house of the LORD.
2 Kings 12:1 In the seventh year of Jehu, Joash beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother’s na
me was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba."
2 Kings 11:14 And she looked out and saw the king standing by the pillar, according to the custom. The officers and trumpeters were beside the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and screa
med, “Treason! Treason!”"
2 Kings 11:12 Then Jehoiada brought out the king’s son, put the crown on him, presented him with the Testimony, and proclai
med him king. They anointed him, and the people clapped their hands and declared, “Long live the king!”"
2 Kings 11:9 So the commanders of hundreds did everything that Jehoiada the priest had ordered. Each of them took his
men—those coming on duty on the Sabbath and those going off duty—and ca
me to Jehoiada the priest."
2 Kings 11:5 and commanded them, “This is what you are to do: A third of you who co
me on duty on the Sabbath shall guard the royal palace,"
2 Kings 10:34 As for the rest of the acts of Jehu, along with all his accomplish
ments and all his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
2 Kings 10:24 And they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had stationed eighty
men outside and warned them, “If anyone allows one of the
men I am delivering into your hands to escape, he will forfeit his life for theirs.”"
2 Kings 10:22 And Jehu said to the keeper of the wardrobe, “Bring out gar
ments for all the servants of Baal.” So he brought out gar
ments for them."
2 Kings 10:21 Then Jehu sent word throughout Israel, and all the servants of Baal ca
me; there was not a man who failed to show. They entered the temple of Baal, and it was filled from end to end.
2 Kings 10:19 Now, therefore, summon to
me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests. See that no one is missing, for I have a great sacrifice for Baal. Whoever is missing will not live.” But Jehu was acting deceptively in order to destroy the servants of Baal."
2 Kings 10:17 When Jehu ca
me to Samaria, he struck down everyone belonging to Ahab who remained there, until he had destroyed them, according to the word that the LORD had spoken to Elijah.
2 Kings 10:16 saying, “Co
me with
me and see my zeal for the LORD!” So he had him ride in his chariot."
2 Kings 10:15 When he left there, he found Jehonadab son of Rechab, who was coming to
meet him. Jehu greeted him and asked, “Is your heart as true to mine as my heart is to yours?” “It is!” Jehonadab replied. “If it is,” said Jehu, “give
me your hand.” So he gave him his hand, and Jehu helped him into his chariot,"
2 Kings 10:14 Then Jehu ordered, “Take them alive.” So his
men took them alive, then slaughtered them at the well of Beth-eked—forty-two
men. He spared none of them."
2 Kings 10:13 Jehu
met so
me relatives of Ahaziah king of Judah and asked, “Who are you?” “We are relatives of Ahaziah,” they answered, “and we have co
me down to greet the sons of the king and of the queen mother.”"
2 Kings 10:11 So Jehu killed everyone in Jezreel who remained of the house of Ahab, as well as all his great
men and close friends and priests, leaving him without a single survivor.
2 Kings 10:8 When the
messenger arrived, he told Jehu, “They have brought the heads of the sons of the king.” And Jehu ordered, “Pile them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until morning.”"
2 Kings 10:6 Then Jehu wrote them a second letter and said: “If you are on my side, and if you will obey
me, then bring the heads of your master’s sons to
me at Jezreel by this ti
me tomorrow.” Now the sons of the king, seventy in all, were being brought up by the leading
men of the city."
2 Kings 10:5 So the palace administrator, the overseer of the city, the elders, and the guardians sent a
message to Jehu: “We are your servants, and we will do whatever you say. We will not make anyone king. Do whatever is good in your sight.”"
2 Kings 9:31 And as Jehu entered the gate, she asked, “Have you co
me in peace, O Zimri, murderer of your master?”"
2 Kings 9:29 (In the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab, Ahaziah had beco
me king over Judah.)
2 Kings 9:27 When King Ahaziah of Judah saw this, he fled up the road toward Beth-haggan. And Jehu pursued him, shouting, “Shoot him too!” So they shot Ahaziah in his chariot on the Ascent of Gur, near Ibleam, and he fled to
Megiddo and died there."
2 Kings 9:25 And Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, “Pick him up and throw him into the field of Naboth the Jezreelite. For re
member that when you and I were riding together behind his father Ahab, the LORD lifted up this burden against him:"
2 Kings 9:22 When Joram saw Jehu, he asked, “Have you co
me in peace, Jehu?” “How can there be peace,” he replied, “as long as the idolatry and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel abound?”"
2 Kings 9:21 “Harness!” Joram shouted, and they harnessed his chariot. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah set out, each in his own chariot, and
met Jehu on the property of Naboth the Jezreelite."
2 Kings 9:19 So the king sent out a second horseman, who went to them and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Have you co
me in peace?’” “What do you know about peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind
me.”"
2 Kings 9:18 So a horseman rode off to
meet Jehu and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Have you co
me in peace?’” “What do you know about peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind
me.” And the watchman reported, “The
messenger reached them, but he is not coming back.”"
2 Kings 9:17 Now the watchman standing on the tower in Jezreel saw Jehu’s troops approaching, and he called out, “I see a company of troops!” “Choose a rider,” Joram commanded. “Send him out to
meet them and ask, ‘Have you co
me in peace?’”"
2 Kings 9:15 but King Joram had returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he had suffered at the hands of the Ara
means in the battle against Hazael their king.) So Jehu said, “If you commanders wish to make
me king, then do not let anyone escape from the city to go and tell it in Jezreel.”"
2 Kings 9:13 Quickly, each man took his gar
ment and put it under Jehu on the bare steps. Then they blew the ram’s horn and proclai
med, “Jehu is king!”"
2 Kings 9:12 “That is a lie!” they said. “Tell us now!” So Jehu answered, “He talked to
me about this and that, and he said, ‘This is what the LORD says: I anoint you king over Israel.’”"
2 Kings 9:11 When Jehu went out to the servants of his master, they asked, “Is everything all right? Why did this madman co
me to you?” “You know his kind and their babble,” he replied."
2 Kings 9:5 and when he arrived, the army commanders were sitting there. “I have a
message for you, commander,” he said. “For which of us?” asked Jehu. “For you, commander,” he replied."
2 Kings 8:29 So King Joram returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds that the Ara
means had inflicted on him at Ramah when he fought against Hazael king of Aram. Then Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to Jezreel to visit Joram son of Ahab, because Joram had been wounded.
2 Kings 8:28 Then Ahaziah went with Joram son of Ahab to fight against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth-gilead, and the Ara
means wounded Joram.
2 Kings 8:26 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem one year. His mother’s na
me was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri king of Israel."
2 Kings 8:25 In the twelfth year of the reign of Joram son of Ahab over Israel, Ahaziah son of Jehoram beca
me king of Judah.
2 Kings 8:23 As for the rest of the acts of Jehoram, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
2 Kings 8:22 So to this day Edom has been in rebellion against the hand of Judah. Likewise, Libnah rebelled at the sa
me ti
me.
2 Kings 8:21 So Jehoram crossed over to Zair with all his chariots. When the Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, he rose up and attacked by night. His troops, however, fled to their ho
mes.
2 Kings 8:17 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years.
2 Kings 8:14 So Hazael left Elisha and went to his master, who asked him, “What did Elisha say to you?” And he replied, “He told
me that you would surely recover.”"
2 Kings 8:13 “But how could your servant, a
mere dog, do such a monstrous thing?” said Hazael. And Elisha answered, “The LORD has shown
me that you will be king over Aram.”"
2 Kings 8:12 “Why is my lord weeping?” asked Hazael. “Because I know the evil you will do to the Israelites,” Elisha replied. “You will set fire to their fortresses, kill their young
men with the sword, dash their little ones to pieces, and rip open their pregnant wo
men.”"
2 Kings 8:11 Elisha fixed his gaze steadily on him until Hazael beca
me uncomfortable. Then the man of God began to weep.
2 Kings 8:10 Elisha answered, “Go and tell him, ‘You will surely recover.’ But the LORD has shown
me that in fact he will die.”"
2 Kings 8:9 So Hazael went to
meet Elisha, taking with him a gift of forty ca
mel loads of every good thing from Damascus. And he went in and stood before him and said, “Your son Ben-hadad king of Aram has sent
me to ask, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”"
2 Kings 8:8 So the king said to Hazael, “Take a gift in your hand, go to
meet the man of God, and inquire of the LORD through him, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”"
2 Kings 8:7 Then Elisha ca
me to Damascus while Ben-hadad king of Aram was sick, and the king was told, “The man of God has co
me here.”"
2 Kings 8:6 When the king asked the woman, she confir
med it. So the king appointed for her an officer, saying, “Restore all that was hers, along with all the proceeds of the field from the day that she left the country until now.”"
2 Kings 8:5 And Gehazi was telling the king how Elisha had brought the dead back to life. Just then the woman whose son Elisha had revived ca
me to appeal to the king for her house and her land. So Gehazi said, “My lord the king, this is the woman, and this is the son Elisha restored to life.”"
2 Kings 8:4 Now the king had been speaking to Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, saying, “Please relate to
me all the great things Elisha has done.”"
2 Kings 8:1 Now Elisha had said to the woman whose son he had restored to life, “Arise, you and your household; go and live as a foreigner wherever you can. For the LORD has decreed a seven-year famine, and it has already co
me to the land.”"
2 Kings 7:18 It happened just as the man of God had told the king: “About this ti
me tomorrow at the gate of Samaria, two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour will sell for a shekel.”"
2 Kings 7:17 Now the king had appointed the officer on whose arm he leaned to be in charge of the gate, but the people trampled him in the gateway, and he died, just as the man of God had foretold when the king had co
me to him.
2 Kings 7:16 Then the people went out and plundered the camp of the Ara
means. It was then that a seah of fine flour sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley sold for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
2 Kings 7:15 And they tracked them as far as the Jordan, and indeed, the whole way was littered with the clothing and equip
ment the Ara
means had thrown off in haste. So the scouts returned and told the king.
2 Kings 7:14 Then the scouts took two chariots with horses, and the king sent them after the Ara
mean army, saying, “Go and see.”"
2 Kings 7:13 But one of his servants replied, “Please, have scouts take five of the horses that remain in the city. Their plight will be no worse than all the Israelites who are left here. You can see that all the Israelites here are doo
med. So let us send them and find out.”"
2 Kings 7:12 So the king got up in the night and said to his servants, “Let
me tell you what the Ara
means have done to us. They know we are starving, so they have left the camp to hide in the field, thinking, ‘When they co
me out of the city, we will take them alive and enter the city.’”"
2 Kings 7:10 So they went and called out to the gatekeepers of the city, saying, “We went to the Ara
mean camp and no one was there—not a trace—only tethered horses and donkeys, and the tents were intact.”"
2 Kings 7:8 When the lepers reached the edge of the camp, they went into a tent to eat and drink. Then they carried off the silver, gold, and clothing, and went and hid them. On returning, they entered another tent, carried off so
me items from there, and hid them.
2 Kings 7:7 Thus the Ara
means had arisen and fled at twilight, abandoning their tents and horses and donkeys. The camp was intact, and they had run for their lives.
2 Kings 7:6 For the Lord had caused the Ara
means to hear the sound of chariots, horses, and a great army, so that they said to one another, “Look, the king of Israel must have hired the kings of the Hittites and Egyptians to attack us.”"
2 Kings 7:5 So they arose at twilight and went to the camp of the Ara
means. But when they ca
me to the outskirts of the camp, there was not a man to be found.
2 Kings 7:4 If we say, ‘Let us go into the city,’ we will die there from the famine in the city; but if we sit here, we will also die. So co
me now, let us go over to the camp of the Ara
means. If they let us live, we will live; if they kill us, we will die.”"
2 Kings 7:3 Now there were four
men with leprosy at the entrance of the city gate, and they said to one another, “Why just sit here until we die?"
2 Kings 7:1 Then Elisha said, “Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the LORD says: ‘About this ti
me tomorrow at the gate of Samaria, a seah of fine flour will sell for a shekel, and two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel.’”"
2 Kings 6:33 While Elisha was still speaking with them, the
messenger ca
me down to him. And the king said, “This calamity is from the LORD. Why should I wait for the LORD any longer?”"
2 Kings 6:32 Now Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. The king sent a
messenger ahead, but before he arrived, Elisha said to the elders, “Do you see how this murderer has sent so
meone to cut off my head? Look, when the
messenger co
mes, shut the door to keep him out. Is not the sound of his master’s footsteps behind him?”"
2 Kings 6:31 He announced, “May God punish
me, and ever so severely, if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remains on his shoulders through this day!”"
2 Kings 6:28 Then the king asked her, “What is the matter?” And she answered, “This woman said to
me, ‘Give up your son, that we may eat him, and tomorrow we will eat my son.’"
2 Kings 6:26 As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried out to him, “Help
me, my lord the king!”"
2 Kings 6:24 So
me ti
me later, Ben-hadad king of Aram assembled his entire army and marched up to besiege Samaria.
2 Kings 6:23 So the king prepared a great feast for them, and after they had finished eating and drinking, he sent them away, and they returned to their master. And the Ara
mean raiders did not co
me into the land of Israel again.
2 Kings 6:20 When they had entered Samaria, Elisha said, “O LORD, open the eyes of these
men that they may see.” Then the LORD opened their eyes, and they looked around and discovered that they were in Samaria."
2 Kings 6:19 And Elisha told them, “This is not the way, and this is not the city. Follow
me, and I will take you to the man you are seeking.” And he led them to Samaria."
2 Kings 6:18 As the Ara
means ca
me down against him, Elisha prayed to the LORD, “Please strike these people with blindness.” So He struck them with blindness, according to the word of Elisha."
2 Kings 6:13 So the king said, “Go and see where he is, that I may send
men to capture him.” On receiving the report, “Elisha is in Dothan,”"
2 Kings 6:11 For this reason the king of Aram beca
me enraged and called his servants to demand of them, “Tell
me, which one of us is on the side of the king of Israel?”"
2 Kings 6:10 So the king of Israel sent word to the place the man of God had pointed out. Ti
me and again Elisha warned the king, so that he was on his guard in such places.
2 Kings 6:9 Then the man of God sent word to the king of Israel: “Be careful passing by this place, for the Ara
means are going down there.”"
2 Kings 6:4 So Elisha went with them, and when they ca
me to the Jordan, they began to cut down so
me trees.
2 Kings 6:3 Then one of them said, “Please co
me with your servants.” “I will co
me,” he replied."
2 Kings 6:1 Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “Please take note that the place where we
meet with you is too small for us."
2 Kings 5:26 But Elisha questioned him, “Did not my spirit go with you when the man got down from his chariot to
meet you? Is this the ti
me to accept money and clothing, olive groves and vineyards, sheep and oxen,
menservants and maidservants?"
2 Kings 5:24 When Gehazi ca
me to the hill, he took the gifts from the servants and stored them in the house. Then he dismissed the
men, and they departed.
2 Kings 5:22 “Everything is all right,” Gehazi replied. “My master has sent
me to say, ‘I have just now discovered that two young
men from the sons of the prophets have co
me to
me from the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two sets of clothing.’”"
2 Kings 5:21 So Gehazi pursued Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running toward him, he got down from the chariot to
meet him and asked, “Is everything all right?”"
2 Kings 5:20 Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, “Look, my master has spared this Ara
mean, Naaman, while not accepting what he brought. As surely as the LORD lives, I will run after him and get so
mething from him.”"
2 Kings 5:17 “If you will not,” said Naaman, “please let
me, your servant, be given as much soil as a pair of mules can carry. For your servant will never again make a burnt offering or a sacrifice to any other god but the LORD."
2 Kings 5:14 So Naaman went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven ti
mes, according to the word of the man of God, and his flesh was restored and beca
me like that of a little child, and he was clean.
2 Kings 5:13 Naaman’s servants, however, approached him and said, “My father, if the prophet had told you to do so
me great thing, would you not have done it? How much more, then, when he tells you, ‘Wash and be cleansed’?”"
2 Kings 5:11 But Naaman went away angry, saying, “I thought that he would surely co
me out, stand and call on the na
me of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the spot to cure my leprosy."
2 Kings 5:10 Then Elisha sent him a
messenger, who said, “Go and wash yourself seven ti
mes in the Jordan, and your flesh will be restored, and you will be clean.”"
2 Kings 5:9 So Naaman ca
me with his horses and chariots and stood at the door of Elisha’s house."
2 Kings 5:8 Now when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent a
message to the king: “Why have you torn your clothes? Please let the man co
me to
me, and he will know that there is a prophet in Israel.”"
2 Kings 5:7 When the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and asked, “Am I God, killing and giving life, that this man expects
me to cure a leper? Surely you can see that he is seeking a quarrel with
me!”"
2 Kings 5:2 At this ti
me the Ara
means had gone out in bands and had taken a young girl from the land of Israel, and she was serving Naaman’s wife."
2 Kings 4:44 So he set it before them, and they ate and had so
me left over, according to the word of the LORD.
2 Kings 4:43 But his servant asked, “How am I to set twenty loaves before a hundred
men?” “Give it to the people to eat,” said Elisha, “for this is what the LORD says: ‘They will eat and have so
me left over.’”"
2 Kings 4:42 Now a man from Baal-shalishah ca
me to the man of God with a sack of twenty loaves of barley bread from the first ripe grain. “Give it to the people to eat,” said Elisha."
2 Kings 4:41 Then Elisha said, “Get so
me flour.” He threw it into the pot and said, “Pour it out for the people to eat.” And there was nothing harmful in the pot."
2 Kings 4:40 And they poured it out for the
men to eat, but when they tasted the stew they cried out, “There is death in the pot, O man of God!” And they could not eat it."
2 Kings 4:39 One of them went out to the field to gather herbs, and he found a wild vine from which he gathered as many wild gourds as his gar
ment could hold. Then he ca
me back and cut them up into the pot of stew, though no one knew what they were.
2 Kings 4:38 When Elisha returned to Gilgal, there was a famine in the land. As the sons of the prophets were sitting at his feet, he said to his attendant, “Put on the large pot and boil so
me stew for the sons of the prophets.”"
2 Kings 4:37 She ca
me in, fell at his feet, and bowed to the ground. Then she picked up her son and went out.
2 Kings 4:36 Elisha summoned Gehazi and said, “Call the Shunammite woman.” So he called her and she ca
me. Then Elisha said, “Pick up your son.”"
2 Kings 4:35 Elisha turned away and paced back and forth across the room. Then he got on the bed and stretched himself out over the boy again, and the boy sneezed seven ti
mes and opened his eyes.
2 Kings 4:34 Then Elisha got on the bed and lay on the boy, mouth to mouth, eye to eye, and hand to hand. As he stretched himself out over him, the boy’s body beca
me warm."
2 Kings 4:31 Gehazi went on ahead of them and laid the staff on the boy’s face, but there was no sound or response. So he went back to
meet Elisha and told him, “The boy has not awakened.”"
2 Kings 4:29 So Elisha said to Gehazi, “Tie up your gar
ment, take my staff in your hand, and go! If you
meet anyone, do not greet him, and if anyone greets you, do not answer him. Then lay my staff on the boy’s face.”"
2 Kings 4:28 Then she said, “Did I ask you for a son, my lord? Didn’t I say, ‘Do not deceive
me?’”"
2 Kings 4:27 When she reached the man of God at the mountain, she clung to his feet. Gehazi ca
me over to push her away, but the man of God said, “Leave her alone, for her soul is in deep distress, and the LORD has hidden it from
me and has not told
me.”"
2 Kings 4:26 Please run out now to
meet her and ask, ‘Are you all right? Is your husband all right? Is your child all right?’” And she answered, “Everything is all right.”"
2 Kings 4:25 So she set out and went to the man of God at Mount Car
mel. When the man of God saw her at a distance, he said to his servant Gehazi, “Look, there is the Shunammite woman."
2 Kings 4:24 Then she saddled the donkey and told her servant, “Drive onward; do not slow the pace for
me unless I tell you.”"
2 Kings 4:22 And the woman called her husband and said, “Please send
me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, that I may go quickly to the man of God and return.”"
2 Kings 4:17 But the woman did conceive, and at that ti
me the next year she gave birth to a son, just as Elisha had told her.
2 Kings 4:16 And Elisha declared, “At this ti
me next year, you will hold a son in your arms.” “No, my lord,” she said. “Do not lie to your maidservant, O man of God.”"
2 Kings 4:13 and Elisha said to Gehazi, “Now tell her, ‘Look, you have gone to all this trouble for us. What can we do for you? Can we speak on your behalf to the king or the commander of the army?’” “I have a ho
me among my own people,” she replied."
2 Kings 4:11 One day Elisha ca
me to visit and went to his upper room to lie down.
2 Kings 4:10 Please let us make a small room upstairs and put in it a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp for him. Then when he co
mes to us, he can stay there.”"
2 Kings 4:9 Then the woman said to her husband, “Behold, now I know that the one who often co
mes our way is a holy man of God."
2 Kings 4:8 One day Elisha went to Shunem, and a prominent woman who lived there persuaded him to have a
meal. So whenever he would pass by, he would stop there to eat.
2 Kings 4:6 When all the jars were full, she said to her son, “Bring
me another.” But he replied, “There are no more jars.” Then the oil stopped flowing."
2 Kings 4:2 “How can I help you?” asked Elisha. “Tell
me, what do you have in the house?” She answered, “Your servant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil.”"
2 Kings 3:26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle was too fierce for him, he took with him seven hundred swords
men to break through to the king of Edom, but they could not prevail.
2 Kings 3:25 They destroyed the cities, and each man threw stones on every good field until it was covered. They stopped up every spring and cut down every good tree. Only Kir-haraseth was left with stones in place, but
men with slings surrounded it and attacked it as well.
2 Kings 3:24 But when the Moabites ca
me to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and attacked them, and they fled before them. So the Israelites invaded their land and struck down the Moabites.
2 Kings 3:23 “This is blood!” they exclai
med. “The kings have clashed swords and slaughtered one another. Now to the plunder, Moab!”"
2 Kings 3:21 Now all the Moabites had heard that the kings had co
me up to fight against them. So all who could bear arms, young and old, were summoned and stationed at the border.
2 Kings 3:20 The next morning, at the ti
me of the morning sacrifice, water suddenly flowed from the direction of Edom and filled the land.
2 Kings 3:15 But now, bring
me a harpist.” And while the harpist played, the hand of the LORD ca
me upon Elisha"
2 Kings 3:12 Jehoshaphat affir
med, “The word of the LORD is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him."
2 Kings 3:7 And he sent a
message to Jehoshaphat king of Judah: “The king of Moab has rebelled against
me. Will you go with
me to fight against Moab?” “I will go,” replied Jehoshaphat. “I am like you, my people are your people, and my horses are your horses.”"
2 Kings 3:6 So at that ti
me King Jehoram set out from Samaria and mobilized all Israel.
2 Kings 3:4 Now
Mesha king of Moab was a sheep breeder, and he would render to the king of Israel a hundred thousand lambs and the wool of a hundred thousand rams.
2 Kings 3:1 In the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat’s reign over Judah, Jehoram son of Ahab beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria twelve years."
2 Kings 2:25 And Elisha went on to Mount Car
mel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
2 Kings 2:24 Then he turned around, looked at them, and called down a curse on them in the na
me of the LORD. Suddenly two female bears ca
me out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys.
2 Kings 2:23 From there, Elisha went up to Bethel, and as he was walking up the road, a group of boys ca
me out of the city and jeered at him, chanting, “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!”"
2 Kings 2:20 “Bring
me a new bowl,” he replied, “and put so
me salt in it.” So they brought it to him,"
2 Kings 2:19 Then the
men of the city said to Elisha, “Please note, our lord, that the city’s location is good, as you can see. But the water is bad and the land is unfruitful.”"
2 Kings 2:17 But when they pressed him to the point of embarrass
ment, he said, “Send them.” And they sent fifty
men, who searched for three days but did not find Elijah."
2 Kings 2:16 “Look now,” they said to Elisha, “we your servants have fifty valiant
men. Please let them go and search for your master. Perhaps the Spirit of the LORD has taken him up and put him on one of the mountains or in one of the valleys.” “Do not send them,” Elisha replied."
2 Kings 2:15 When the sons of the prophets who were facing him from Jericho saw what had happened, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.” And they went to
meet him and bowed down to the ground before him."
2 Kings 2:12 As Elisha watched, he cried out, “My father, my father, the chariots and horse
men of Israel!” And he saw Elijah no more. So taking hold of his own clothes, he tore them in two."
2 Kings 2:10 “You have requested a difficult thing,” said Elijah. “Nevertheless, if you see
me as I am taken from you, it will be yours. But if not, then it will not be so.”"
2 Kings 2:9 After they had crossed over, Elijah said to Elisha, “Tell
me, what can I do for you before I am taken away from you?” “Please, let
me inherit a double portion of your spirit,” Elisha replied."
2 Kings 2:6 And Elijah said to Elisha, “Please stay here, for the LORD has sent
me on to the Jordan.” But Elisha replied, “As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So the two of them went on."
2 Kings 2:5 Then the sons of the prophets at Jericho ca
me up to Elisha and said, “Do you know that the LORD will take your master away from you today?” “Yes, I know,” he replied. “Do not speak of it.”"
2 Kings 2:4 And Elijah said to Elisha, “Please stay here, for the LORD has sent
me on to Jericho.” But Elisha replied, “As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So they went to Jericho."
2 Kings 2:3 Then the sons of the prophets at Bethel ca
me out to Elisha and said, “Do you know that the LORD will take your master away from you today?” “Yes, I know,” he replied. “Do not speak of it.”"
2 Kings 2:2 and Elijah said to Elisha, “Please stay here, for the LORD has sent
me on to Bethel.” But Elisha replied, “As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So they went down to Bethel."
2 Kings 1:18 As for the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, along with his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
2 Kings 1:16 And Elijah said to King Ahaziah, “This is what the LORD says: Is there really no God in Israel for you to inquire of His word? Is that why you have sent
messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.”"
2 Kings 1:14 Behold, fire has co
me down from heaven and consu
med the first two captains of fifty, with all their
men. But now may my life be precious in your sight.”"
2 Kings 1:13 So the king sent a third captain with his fifty
men. And the third captain went up, fell on his knees before Elijah, and begged him, “Man of God, may my life and the lives of these fifty servants please be precious in your sight."
2 Kings 1:12 Again Elijah replied, “If I am a man of God, may fire co
me down from heaven and consu
me you and your fifty
men.” And the fire of God ca
me down from heaven and consu
med the captain and his fifty
men."
2 Kings 1:11 So the king sent to Elijah another captain with his fifty
men. And the captain said to Elijah, “Man of God, the king declares, ‘Co
me down at once!’”"
2 Kings 1:10 Elijah answered the captain, “If I am a man of God, may fire co
me down from heaven and consu
me you and your fifty
men.” And fire ca
me down from heaven and consu
med the captain and his fifty
men."
2 Kings 1:9 Then King Ahaziah sent to Elijah a captain with his company of fifty
men. So the captain went up to Elijah, who was sitting on top of a hill, and said to him, “Man of God, the king declares, ‘Co
me down!’”"
2 Kings 1:7 The king asked them, “What sort of man ca
me up to
meet you and spoke these words to you?”"
2 Kings 1:6 They replied, “A man ca
me up to
meet us and said, ‘Go back to the king who sent you and tell him that this is what the LORD says: Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending these
men to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.’”"
2 Kings 1:5 When the
messengers returned to the king, he asked them, “Why have you returned?”"
2 Kings 1:3 But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, “Go up to
meet the
messengers of the king of Samaria and ask them, ‘Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are on your way to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?’"
2 Kings 1:2 Now Ahaziah had fallen through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria and injured himself. So he sent
messengers and instructed them: “Go inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will recover from this injury.”"
1 Kings 22:51 In the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat’s reign over Judah, Ahaziah son of Ahab beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria two years."
1 Kings 22:49 At that ti
me Ahaziah son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants sail with your servants,” but Jehoshaphat refused."
1 Kings 22:42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-five years. His mother’s na
me was Azubah daughter of Shilhi."
1 Kings 22:41 In the fourth year of Ahab’s reign over Israel, Jehoshaphat son of Asa beca
me king of Judah."
1 Kings 22:39 As for the rest of the acts of Ahab, along with all his accomplish
ments and the ivory palace and all the cities he built, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
1 Kings 22:35 The battle raged throughout that day, and the king was propped up in his chariot facing the Ara
means. And the blood from his wound ran out onto the floor of the chariot, and that evening he died.
1 Kings 22:34 However, a certain man drew his bow without taking special aim, and he struck the king of Israel between the joints of his armor. So the king said to his charioteer, “Turn around and take
me out of the battle, for I am badly wounded!”"
1 Kings 22:28 But Micaiah replied, “If you ever return safely, the LORD has not spoken through
me.” Then he added, “Take heed, all you people!”"
1 Kings 22:24 Then Zedekiah son of Chenaanah went up, struck Micaiah in the face, and demanded, “Which way did the Spirit of the LORD go when He departed from
me to speak with you?”"
1 Kings 22:21 Then a spirit ca
me forward, stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’ ‘By what
means?’ asked the LORD."
1 Kings 22:18 Then the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not tell you that he never prophesies good for
me, but only bad?”"
1 Kings 22:17 So Micaiah declared: “I saw all Israel scattered on the hills like sheep without a shepherd. And the LORD said, ‘These people have no master; let each one return ho
me in peace.’”"
1 Kings 22:16 But the king said to him, “How many ti
mes must I make you swear not to tell
me anything but the truth in the na
me of the LORD?”"
1 Kings 22:14 But Micaiah said, “As surely as the LORD lives, I will speak whatever the LORD tells
me.”"
1 Kings 22:13 Then the
messenger who had gone to call Micaiah instructed him, “Behold now, with one accord the words of the prophets are favorable to the king. So please let your words be like theirs, and speak favorably.”"
1 Kings 22:12 And all the prophets were prophesying the sa
me, saying, “Go up to Ramoth-gilead and prosper, for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.”"
1 Kings 22:11 Now Zedekiah son of Chenaanah had made for himself iron horns and declared, “This is what the LORD says: ‘With these you shall gore the Ara
means until they are finished off.’”"
1 Kings 22:8 The king of Israel answered, “There is still one man who can ask the LORD, but I hate him because he never prophesies anything good for
me, but only bad. He is Micaiah son of Imlah.” “The king should not say that!” Jehoshaphat replied."
1 Kings 22:6 So the king of Israel assembled the prophets, about four hundred
men, and asked them, “Should I go to war against Ramoth-gilead, or should I refrain?” “Go up,” they replied, “and the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.”"
1 Kings 22:4 So he asked Jehoshaphat, “Will you go with
me to fight against Ramoth-gilead?” Jehoshaphat answered the king of Israel, “I am like you, my people are your people, and my horses are your horses.”"
1 Kings 21:29 “Have you seen how Ahab has humbled himself before
Me? Because he has humbled himself before
Me, I will not bring the calamity during his days, but I will bring it upon his house in the days of his son.”"
1 Kings 21:28 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Elijah the Tishbite, saying:
1 Kings 21:27 When Ahab heard these words, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and fasted. He lay down in sackcloth and walked around
meekly.
1 Kings 21:21 This is what the LORD says: ‘I will bring calamity on you and consu
me your descendants; I will cut off from Ahab every male in Israel, both slave and free."
1 Kings 21:20 When Elijah arrived, Ahab said to him, “So you have found
me out, my enemy.” He replied, “I have found you out because you have sold yourself to do evil in the sight of the LORD."
1 Kings 21:18 “Get up and go down to
meet Ahab king of Israel, who is in Samaria. See, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, of which he has gone to take possession."
1 Kings 21:17 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
1 Kings 21:13 And the two scoundrels ca
me in and sat opposite Naboth, and these
men testified against him before the people, saying, “Naboth has cursed both God and the king!” So they took him outside the city and stoned him to death."
1 Kings 21:12 They proclai
med a fast and gave Naboth a seat of honor among the people.
1 Kings 21:8 Then Jezebel wrote letters in Ahab’s na
me, sealed them with his seal, and sent them to the elders and nobles who lived with Naboth in his city."
1 Kings 21:7 But his wife Jezebel said to him, “Do you not reign over Israel? Get up, eat so
me food, and be cheerful, for I will get you the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.”"
1 Kings 21:6 Ahab answered, “Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite and told him, ‘Give
me your vineyard for silver, or if you wish, I will give you another vineyard in its place.’ And he replied, ‘I will not give you my vineyard!’”"
1 Kings 21:5 Soon his wife Jezebel ca
me in and asked, “Why are you so sullen that you refuse to eat?”"
1 Kings 21:2 So Ahab said to Naboth, “Give
me your vineyard to use as a vegetable garden, since it is next to my palace. I will give you a better vineyard in its place—or if you prefer, I will give you its value in silver.”"
1 Kings 21:1 So
me ti
me later, Naboth the Jezreelite happened to own a vineyard in Jezreel next to the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.
1 Kings 20:43 Sullen and angry, the king of Israel went ho
me to Samaria.
1 Kings 20:40 But while your servant was busy here and there, the man disappeared.” And the king of Israel said to him, “So shall your judg
ment be; you have pronounced it on yourself.”"
1 Kings 20:39 As the king passed by, he cried out to the king: “Your servant had marched out into the middle of the battle, when suddenly a man ca
me over with a captive and told
me, ‘Guard this man! If he goes missing for any reason, your life will be exchanged for his life, or you will weigh out a talent of silver.’"
1 Kings 20:37 Then the prophet found another man and said, “Strike
me, please!” So the man struck him and wounded him,"
1 Kings 20:36 Then the prophet said to him, “Because you have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, as soon as you depart from
me a lion will kill you.” And when he left, a lion found him and killed him."
1 Kings 20:35 Meanwhile, by the word of the LORD, one of the sons of the prophets said to his companion, “Strike
me, please!” But the man refused to strike him."
1 Kings 20:33 Now the
men were looking for a sign of hope, and they quickly grasped at this word and replied, “Yes, your brother Ben-hadad.” “Go and get him!” said the king. Then Ben-hadad ca
me out, and Ahab had him co
me up into his chariot."
1 Kings 20:31 Then the servants of Ben-hadad said to him, “Look now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are
merciful. Let us go out to the king of Israel with sackcloth around our waists and ropes around our heads. Perhaps he will spare your life.”"
1 Kings 20:30 The rest of them fled into the city of Aphek, where the wall fell on twenty-seven thousand of the remaining
men. Ben-hadad also fled to the city and hid in an inner room.
1 Kings 20:29 For seven days the armies camped opposite each other, and on the seventh day the battle ensued, and the Israelites struck down the Ara
means—a hundred thousand foot soldiers in one day."
1 Kings 20:28 Then the man of God approached the king of Israel and said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Because the Ara
means think the LORD is a god of the hills and not of the valleys, I will deliver all this great army into your hand. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”"
1 Kings 20:27 The Israelites also mobilized, gathered supplies, and marched out to
meet them. The Israelites camped before them like two small flocks of goats, while the Ara
means covered the countryside.
1 Kings 20:26 In the spring, Ben-hadad mobilized the Ara
means and went up to Aphek to fight against Israel.
1 Kings 20:23 Meanwhile, the servants of the king of Aram said to him, “Their gods are gods of the hills. That is why they prevailed over us. Instead, we should fight them on the plains; surely then we will prevail."
1 Kings 20:22 Afterward, the prophet approached the king of Israel and said, “Go and strengthen your position, and take note what you must do, for in the spring the king of Aram will co
me up against you.”"
1 Kings 20:21 Then the king of Israel marched out and attacked the horses and chariots, inflicting a great slaughter on the Ara
means.
1 Kings 20:20 and each one struck down his opponent. So the Ara
means fled, with the Israelites in pursuit. But Ben-hadad king of Aram escaped on horseback with the cavalry.
1 Kings 20:19 Meanwhile, these young officers of the district governors marched out of the city, with the army behind them,
1 Kings 20:17 And the young officers of the district governors marched out first. Now Ben-hadad had sent out scouts, who reported to him, “
Men are marching out of Samaria.”"
1 Kings 20:15 So Ahab assembled the young officers of the district governors, and there were 232
men. And after them, he assembled the rest of the Israelite troops, 7,000 in all.
1 Kings 20:13 Meanwhile a prophet approached Ahab king of Israel and declared, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Do you see this entire great army? Behold, I will deliver it into your hand this very day, and you will know that I am the LORD.’”"
1 Kings 20:12 Ben-hadad received this
message while he and the kings were drinking in their tents, and he said to his servants, “Take your positions.” So they stationed themselves against the city."
1 Kings 20:10 Then Ben-hadad sent another
message to Ahab: “May the gods deal with
me, and ever so severely, if enough dust remains of Samaria for each of my
men to have a handful.”"
1 Kings 20:9 So Ahab answered the
messengers of Ben-hadad, “Tell my lord the king, ‘All that you demanded of your servant the first ti
me I will do, but this thing I cannot do.’” So the
messengers departed and relayed the
message to Ben-hadad."
1 Kings 20:6 But about this ti
me tomorrow I will send my servants to search your palace and the houses of your servants. They will seize and carry away all that is precious to you.’”"
1 Kings 20:5 The
messengers ca
me back and said, “This is what Ben-hadad says: ‘I have sent to you to demand your silver, your gold, your wives, and your children."
♫ 1 Kings 20:2 Then he sent
messengers into the city to Ahab king of Israel,
1 Kings 19:21 So Elisha turned back from him, took his pair of oxen, and slaughtered them. With the oxen’s equip
ment, he cooked the
meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow and serve Elijah."
1 Kings 19:20 So Elisha left the oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, “Please let
me kiss my father and mother goodbye, and then I will follow you.” “Go on back,” Elijah replied, “for what have I done to you?”"
1 Kings 19:16 You are also to anoint Jehu son of Nimshi as king over Israel and Elisha son of Shaphat from Abel-
meholah to succeed you as prophet.
1 Kings 19:15 Then the LORD said to him, “Go back by the way you ca
me, and go to the Desert of Damascus. When you arrive, you are to anoint Hazael as king over Aram."
1 Kings 19:13 When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Suddenly a voice ca
me to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”"
1 Kings 19:12 After the earthquake there was a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire ca
me a still, small voice.
1 Kings 19:9 There Elijah entered a cave and spent the night. And the word of the LORD ca
me to him, saying, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”"
1 Kings 19:7 A second ti
me the angel of the LORD returned and touched him, saying, “Get up and eat, or the journey will be too much for you.”"
1 Kings 19:3 And Elijah was afraid and ran for his life. When he ca
me to Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there,
1 Kings 19:2 So Jezebel sent a
messenger to Elijah, saying, “May the gods deal with
me, and ever so severely, if by this ti
me tomorrow I do not make your life like the lives of those you killed!”"
1 Kings 18:46 And the hand of the LORD ca
me upon Elijah, and he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran ahead of Ahab all the way to Jezreel.
1 Kings 18:45 Meanwhile, the sky grew dark with clouds and wind, and a heavy rain began to fall. So Ahab rode away and went to Jezreel.
1 Kings 18:44 On the seventh ti
me the servant reported, “There is a cloud as small as a man’s hand rising from the sea.” And Elijah replied, “Go and tell Ahab, ‘Prepare your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.’”"
1 Kings 18:43 “Go and look toward the sea,” he said to his servant. So the servant went and looked, and he said, “There is nothing there.” Seven ti
mes Elijah said, “Go back.”"
1 Kings 18:42 So Ahab went up to eat and drink. But Elijah climbed to the summit of Car
mel, bent down on the ground, and put his face between his knees.
1 Kings 18:38 Then the fire of the LORD fell and consu
med the sacrifice, the wood, the stones, and the dust, and it licked up the water in the trench.
1 Kings 18:37 Answer
me, O LORD! Answer
me, so that this people will know that You, the LORD, are God, and that You have turned their hearts back again.”"
1 Kings 18:36 At the ti
me of the evening sacrifice, Elijah the prophet approached the altar and said, “O LORD, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known this day that You are God in Israel and that I am Your servant and have done all these things at Your command."
1 Kings 18:34 and said, “Fill four waterpots and pour the water on the offering and on the wood.” “Do it a second ti
me,” he said, and they did it a second ti
me. “Do it a third ti
me,” he said, and they did it a third ti
me."
1 Kings 18:32 And with the stones, Elijah built an altar in the na
me of the LORD. Then he dug a trench around the altar large enough to hold two seahs of seed.
1 Kings 18:31 And Elijah took twelve stones, one for each tribe of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD had co
me and said, “Israel shall be your na
me.”"
1 Kings 18:30 Then Elijah said to all the people, “Co
me near to
me.” So all the people approached him, and he repaired the altar of the LORD that had been torn down."
1 Kings 18:29 Midday passed, and they kept on raving until the ti
me of the evening sacrifice. But there was no response; no one answered, no one paid attention.
1 Kings 18:26 And they took the bull that was given them, prepared it, and called on the na
me of Baal from morning until noon, shouting, “O Baal, answer us!” But there was no sound, and no one answered as they leaped around the altar they had made."
1 Kings 18:25 Then Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Since you are so nu
merous, choose for yourselves one bull and prepare it first. Then call on the na
me of your god, but do not light the fire.”"
1 Kings 18:24 Then you may call on the na
me of your god, and I will call on the na
me of the LORD. The God who answers by fire, He is God.” And all the people answered, “What you say is good.”"
1 Kings 18:20 So Ahab summoned all the Israelites and assembled the prophets on Mount Car
mel.
1 Kings 18:19 Now summon all Israel to
meet
me on Mount Car
mel, along with the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal and the four hundred prophets of Asherah who eat at Jezebel’s table.”"
1 Kings 18:18 “I have not troubled Israel,” Elijah replied, “but you and your father’s house have, for you have forsaken the command
ments of the LORD and have followed the Baals."
1 Kings 18:16 So Obadiah went to inform Ahab, who went to
meet Elijah.
1 Kings 18:14 And now you say, ‘Go tell your lord that Elijah is here!’ He will kill
me!”"
1 Kings 18:13 Was it not reported to my lord what I did when Jezebel slaughtered the prophets of the LORD? I hid a hundred prophets of the LORD, fifty
men per cave, and I provided them with food and water.
1 Kings 18:12 I do not know where the Spirit of the LORD may carry you off when I leave you. Then when I go and tell Ahab and he does not find you, he will kill
me. But I, your servant, have feared the LORD from my youth.
1 Kings 18:10 As surely as the LORD your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent so
meone to search for you. When they said, ‘He is not here,’ he made that kingdom or nation swear that they had not found you."
1 Kings 18:9 But Obadiah replied, “How have I sinned, that you are handing your servant over to Ahab to put
me to death?"
1 Kings 18:7 Now as Obadiah went on his way, Elijah suddenly
met him. When Obadiah recognized him, he fell facedown and said, “Is it you, my lord Elijah?”"
1 Kings 18:4 for when Jezebel had slaughtered the prophets of the LORD, Obadiah had taken a hundred prophets and hidden them, fifty
men per cave, providing them with food and water.)
1 Kings 18:1 After a long ti
me, in the third year of the drought, the word of the LORD ca
me to Elijah: “Go and present yourself to Ahab, and I will send rain upon the face of the earth.”"
1 Kings 17:21 Then he stretched himself out over the child three ti
mes and cried out to the LORD, “O LORD my God, please let this boy’s life return to him!”"
1 Kings 17:20 Then he cried out to the LORD, “O LORD my God, have You also brought tragedy on this widow who has opened her ho
me to
me, by causing her son to die?”"
1 Kings 17:19 But Elijah said to her, “Give
me your son.” So he took him from her arms, carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his own bed."
1 Kings 17:18 “O man of God,” said the woman to Elijah, “what have you done to
me? Have you co
me to remind
me of my iniquity and cause the death of my son?”"
1 Kings 17:17 Later, the son of the woman who owned the house beca
me ill, and his sickness grew worse and worse, until no breath remained in him.
1 Kings 17:13 “Do not be afraid,” Elijah said to her. “Go and do as you have said. But first make
me a small cake of bread from what you have, and bring it out to
me. Afterward, make so
me for yourself and your son,"
1 Kings 17:12 But she replied, “As surely as the LORD your God lives, I have no bread—only a handful of flour in a jar and a little oil in a jug. Look, I am gathering a couple of sticks to take ho
me and prepare a
meal for myself and my son, so that we may eat it and die.”"
1 Kings 17:11 And as she was going to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring
me a piece of bread.”"
1 Kings 17:10 So Elijah got up and went to Zarephath. When he arrived at the city gate, there was a widow gathering sticks. Elijah called to her and said, “Please bring
me a little water in a cup, so that I may drink.”"
1 Kings 17:7 So
me ti
me later, however, the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.
1 Kings 17:6 The ravens would bring him bread and
meat in the morning and evening, and he would drink from the brook.
1 Kings 17:2 Then a revelation from the LORD ca
me to Elijah:
1 Kings 16:29 In the thirty-eighth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Ahab son of Omri beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria twenty-two years."
1 Kings 16:27 As for the rest of the acts of Omri, along with his accomplish
ments and the might he exercised, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
1 Kings 16:24 He bought the hill of Samaria from She
mer for two talents of silver and built a city there, calling it Samaria after the na
me of She
mer, who had owned the hill.
1 Kings 16:23 In the thirty-first year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Omri beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned twelve years, six of them in Tirzah."
1 Kings 16:22 But the followers of Omri proved stronger than those of Tibni son of Ginath. So Tibni died and Omri beca
me king.
1 Kings 16:21 At that ti
me the people of Israel were divided: Half of the people supported Tibni son of Ginath as king, and half supported Omri.
1 Kings 16:16 and the people in the camp heard that Zimri had not only conspired but had also struck down the king. So there in the camp that very day, all Israel proclai
med Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel.
1 Kings 16:14 As for the rest of the acts of Elah, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
1 Kings 16:8 In the twenty-sixth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Elah son of Baasha beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned in Tirzah two years."
1 Kings 16:7 Moreover, the word of the LORD ca
me through the prophet Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha and his house, because of all the evil he had done in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger with the work of his hands and becoming like the house of Jeroboam, and also because Baasha had struck down the house of Jeroboam.
1 Kings 16:5 As for the rest of the acts of Baasha, along with his accomplish
ments and might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
1 Kings 16:3 So now I will consu
me Baasha and his house, and I will make your house like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat:
1 Kings 16:2 “Even though I lifted you out of the dust and made you ruler over My people Israel, you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have caused My people Israel to sin and to provoke
Me to anger by their sins."
1 Kings 16:1 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha, saying:
1 Kings 15:33 In the third year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Baasha son of Ahijah beca
me king of all Israel, and he reigned in Tirzah twenty-four years."
1 Kings 15:31 As for the rest of the acts of Nadab, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
1 Kings 15:29 As soon as Baasha beca
me king, he struck down the entire household of Jeroboam. He did not leave to Jeroboam anyone that breathed, but destroyed them all according to the word that the LORD had spoken through His servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
1 Kings 15:25 In the second year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Nadab son of Jeroboam beca
me king of Israel, and he reigned two years."
1 Kings 15:23 Now the rest of the acts of Asa, along with all his might, all his accomplish
ments, and the cities he built, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? In his old age, however, he beca
me diseased in his feet.
1 Kings 15:22 Then King Asa summoned all the
men of Judah, with no exceptions, and they carried away the stones of Ramah and the timbers Baasha had used for building. And with these materials King Asa built up Geba of Benjamin, as well as Mizpah.
1 Kings 15:19 “Let there be a treaty between
me and you, between my father and your father. See, I have sent you a gift of silver and gold. Now go and break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from
me.”"
1 Kings 15:18 So Asa withdrew all the silver and gold that remained in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the royal palace. He entrusted it to his servants and sent them with this
message to Ben-hadad son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion king of Aram, who was ruling in Damascus:
1 Kings 15:10 and he reigned in Jerusalem forty-one years. His grandmother’s na
me was Maacah daughter of Abishalom."
1 Kings 15:9 In the twentieth year of Jeroboam’s reign over Israel, Asa beca
me king of Judah,"
1 Kings 15:7 As for the rest of the acts of Abijam, along with all his accomplish
ments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
1 Kings 15:2 and he reigned in Jerusalem three years. His mother’s na
me was Maacah daughter of Abishalom."
1 Kings 15:1 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam son of Nebat, Abijam beca
me king of Judah,
1 Kings 14:31 And Rehoboam rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David; his mother’s na
me was Naamah the Ammonite. And his son Abijam reigned in his place."
1 Kings 14:25 In the fifth year of Rehoboam’s reign, Shishak king of Egypt ca
me up and attacked Jerusalem."
1 Kings 14:21 Meanwhile, Rehoboam son of Solomon reigned in Judah. He was forty-one years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the LORD had chosen from all the tribes of Israel in which to put His Na
me. His mother’s na
me was Naamah the Ammonite."
1 Kings 14:12 As for you, get up and go ho
me. When your feet enter the city, the child will die.
1 Kings 14:9 You have done more evil than all who ca
me before you. You have proceeded to make for yourself other gods and molten images to provoke
Me, and you have flung
Me behind your back.
1 Kings 14:8 I tore the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you. But you were not like My servant David, who kept My command
ments and followed
Me with all his heart, doing only what was right in My eyes.
1 Kings 14:6 So when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet entering the door, he said, “Co
me in, wife of Jeroboam! Why are you disguised? For I have been sent to you with bad news."
1 Kings 14:3 Take with you ten loaves of bread, so
me cakes, and a jar of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what will beco
me of the boy.”"
1 Kings 14:1 At that ti
me Abijah son of Jeroboam beca
me ill,
1 Kings 13:32 for the
message that he cried out by the word of the LORD against the altar in Bethel and against all the shrines on the high places in the cities of Samaria will surely co
me to pass.”"
1 Kings 13:31 After he had buried him, the prophet said to his sons, “When I die, you must bury
me in the tomb where the man of God is buried. Lay my bones beside his bones,"
1 Kings 13:30 Then he laid the body in his own tomb, and they la
mented over him, “Oh, my brother!”"
1 Kings 13:27 Then the old prophet instructed his sons, “Saddle the donkey for
me.” So they saddled it,"
1 Kings 13:25 And there were
men passing by who saw the body lying in the road with the lion standing beside it, and they went and reported this in the city where the old prophet lived.
1 Kings 13:24 As he went on his way, a lion
met him on the road and killed him, and his body was left lying in the road, with the donkey and the lion standing beside it.
1 Kings 13:21 and the prophet cried out to the man of God who had co
me from Judah, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Because you have defied the word of the LORD and have not kept the command
ment that the LORD your God gave you,"
1 Kings 13:20 While they were sitting at the table, the word of the LORD ca
me to the prophet who had brought him back,
1 Kings 13:18 Then the prophet replied, “I too am a prophet like you, and an angel spoke to
me by the word of the LORD, saying, ‘Bring him back with you to your house, so that he may eat bread and drink water.’” The old prophet was lying to him,"
1 Kings 13:17 For I have been told by the word of the LORD: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water there or return by the way you ca
me.’”"
1 Kings 13:15 So the prophet said to the man of God, “Co
me ho
me with
me and eat so
me bread.”"
1 Kings 13:14 and went after the man of God. He found him sitting under an oak tree and asked, “Are you the man of God who ca
me from Judah?” “I am,” he replied."
1 Kings 13:13 So the prophet said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for
me.” Then they saddled the donkey for him, and he mounted it"
1 Kings 13:12 “Which way did he go?” their father asked. And his sons showed him the way taken by the man of God, who had co
me from Judah."
1 Kings 13:11 Now a certain old prophet was living in Bethel, and his sons ca
me and told him all the deeds that the man of God had done that day in Bethel. They also told their father the words that the man had spoken to the king.
1 Kings 13:10 So the man of God went another way and did not return by the way he had co
me to Bethel.
1 Kings 13:9 For this is what I was commanded by the word of the LORD: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water or return by the way you ca
me.’”"
1 Kings 13:8 But the man of God replied, “If you were to give
me half your possessions, I still would not go with you, nor would I eat bread or drink water in this place."
1 Kings 13:7 Then the king said to the man of God, “Co
me ho
me with
me and refresh yourself, and I will give you a reward.”"
1 Kings 13:2 And he cried out against the altar by the word of the LORD, “O altar, O altar, this is what the LORD says: ‘A son na
med Josiah will be born to the house of David, and upon you he will sacrifice the priests of the high places who burn incense upon you, and human bones will be burned upon you.’”"
1 Kings 13:1 Suddenly, as Jeroboam was standing beside the altar to burn incense, there ca
me a man of God from Judah to Bethel by the word of the LORD.
1 Kings 12:30 And this thing beca
me a sin; the people walked as far as Dan to worship before one of the calves.
1 Kings 12:27 If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, their hearts will return to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah; then they will kill
me and return to Rehoboam king of Judah.”"
1 Kings 12:24 that this is what the LORD says: ‘You are not to go up and fight against your brothers, the Israelites. Each of you must return ho
me, for this word is from
Me.’” So they listened to the word of the LORD and turned back according to the word of the LORD."
1 Kings 12:22 But the word of God ca
me to Shemaiah the man of God:
1 Kings 12:16 When all Israel saw that the king had refused to listen to them, they answered the king: “What portion do we have in David, and what inheritance in the son of Jesse? To your tents, O Israel! Look now to your own house, O David!” So the Israelites went ho
me,"
1 Kings 12:14 and spoke to them as the young
men had advised, saying, “Whereas my father made your yoke heavy, I will add to your yoke. Whereas my father scourged you with whips, I will scourge you with scorpions.”"
1 Kings 12:12 After three days, Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam, since the king had said, “Co
me back to
me on the third day.”"
1 Kings 12:10 The young
men who had grown up with him replied, “This is how you should answer these people who said to you, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you should make it lighter.’ This is what you should tell them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist!"
1 Kings 12:9 He asked them, “What
message do you advise that we send back to these people who have spoken to
me, saying, ‘Lighten the yoke your father put on us’?”"
1 Kings 12:8 But Rehoboam rejected the advice of the elders; instead, he consulted the young
men who had grown up with him and served him.
1 Kings 12:6 Then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon during his lifeti
me. “How do you advise
me to respond to these people?” he asked."
1 Kings 12:5 Rehoboam answered, “Go away for three days and then return to
me.” So the people departed."
1 Kings 12:3 So they sent for Jeroboam, and he and the whole assembly of Israel ca
me to Rehoboam and said,
1 Kings 11:42 Thus the ti
me that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
1 Kings 11:38 If you listen to all that I command you, walk in My ways, and do what is right in My sight in order to keep My statutes and command
ments as My servant David did, then I will be with you. I will build you a lasting dynasty just as I built for David, and I will give Israel to you.
1 Kings 11:36 I will give one tribe to his son, so that My servant David will always have a lamp before
Me in Jerusalem, the city where I chose to put My Na
me.
1 Kings 11:34 Nevertheless, I will not take the whole kingdom out of Solomon’s hand, because I have made him ruler all the days of his life for the sake of David My servant, whom I chose because he kept My command
ments and statutes."
1 Kings 11:33 For they have forsaken
Me to worship Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the Ammonites. They have not walked in My ways, nor done what is right in My eyes, nor kept My statutes and judg
ments, as Solomon’s father David did."
1 Kings 11:29 During that ti
me, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite
met Jeroboam on the road as he was going out of Jerusalem. Now Ahijah had wrapped himself in a new cloak, and the two of them were alone in the open field.
1 Kings 11:26 Now Jeroboam son of Nebat was an Ephraimite from Zeredah whose mother was a widow na
med Zeruah. Jeroboam was a servant of Solomon, but he rebelled against the king,
1 Kings 11:24 and had gathered
men to himself. When David killed the Zobaites, Rezon captained a band of raiders and went to Damascus, where they settled and gained control.
1 Kings 11:22 But Pharaoh asked him, “What have you lacked here with
me that you suddenly want to go back to your own country?” “Nothing,” Hadad replied, “but please let
me go.”"
1 Kings 11:21 When Hadad heard in Egypt that David had rested with his fathers and that Joab, the commander of the army, was dead, he said to Pharaoh, “Let
me go, that I may return to my own country.”"
1 Kings 11:20 And the sister of Tahpenes bore Hadad a son na
med Genubath. Tahpenes herself weaned him in Pharaoh’s palace, and Genubath lived there among the sons of Pharaoh."
1 Kings 11:18 Hadad and his
men set out from Midian and went to Paran. They took
men from Paran with them and went to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave Hadad a house and land and provided him with food.
1 Kings 11:17 But Hadad, still just a young boy, had fled to Egypt, along with so
me Edomites who were servants of his father.
1 Kings 11:12 Nevertheless, for the sake of your father David, I will not do it during your lifeti
me; I will tear it out of the hand of your son.
1 Kings 11:8 He did the sa
me for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.
1 Kings 11:7 At that ti
me on a hill east of Jerusalem, Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab and for Molech the abomination of the Ammonites.
1 Kings 11:2 These wo
men were from the nations about which the LORD had told the Israelites, “You must not intermarry with them, for surely they will turn your hearts after their gods.” Yet Solomon clung to these wo
men in love."
1 Kings 11:1 King Solomon, however, loved many foreign wo
men along with the daughter of Pharaoh—wo
men of Moab, Ammon, Edom, and Sidon, as well as Hittite wo
men."
1 Kings 10:28 Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and Kue; the royal
merchants purchased them from Kue."
1 Kings 10:17 He also made three hundred small shields of ham
mered gold; three minas of gold went into each shield. And the king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.
1 Kings 10:16 King Solomon made two hundred large shields of ham
mered gold; six hundred shekels of gold went into each shield.
1 Kings 10:15 not including the revenue from the
merchants, traders, and all the Arabian kings and governors of the land.
1 Kings 10:14 The weight of gold that ca
me to Solomon each year was 666 talents,
1 Kings 10:8 How blessed are your
men! How blessed are these servants of yours who stand continually before you and hear your wisdom!
1 Kings 10:7 But I did not believe these things until I ca
me and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, not even half was told to
me. Your wisdom and prosperity have far exceeded the report I heard.
1 Kings 10:2 She arrived in Jerusalem with a very large caravan—with ca
mels bearing spices, gold in great abundance, and precious stones. So she ca
me to Solomon and spoke to him all that was on her mind."
1 Kings 10:1 Now when the queen of Sheba heard about the fa
me of Solomon concerning the na
me of the LORD, she ca
me to test him with difficult questions.
1 Kings 9:27 And Hiram sent his servants,
men who knew the sea, to serve in the fleet with Solomon’s servants."
1 Kings 9:25 Three ti
mes a year Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar he had built for the LORD, burning incense with them before the LORD. So he completed the temple.
1 Kings 9:24 As soon as Pharaoh’s daughter had co
me up from the City of David to the palace that Solomon had built for her, he built the supporting terraces."
1 Kings 9:22 But Solomon did not consign any of the Israelites to slavery, because they were his
men of war, his servants, his officers, his captains, and the commanders of his chariots and cavalry.
1 Kings 9:15 This is the account of the forced labor that King Solomon imposed to build the house of the LORD, his own palace, the supporting terraces, and the wall of Jerusalem, as well as Hazor,
Megiddo, and Gezer.
1 Kings 9:13 “What are these towns you have given
me, my brother?” asked Hiram, and he called them the Land of Cabul, as they are called to this day."
1 Kings 9:8 And when this temple has beco
me a heap of rubble, all who pass by it will be appalled and will hiss and say, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this land and to this temple?’"
1 Kings 9:7 then I will cut off Israel from the land that I have given them, and I will banish from My presence this temple I have sanctified for My Na
me. Then Israel will beco
me an object of scorn and ridicule among all peoples.
1 Kings 9:6 But if indeed you or your sons turn away from following
Me and do not keep the command
ments and statutes I have set before you, and if you go off to serve and worship other gods,
1 Kings 9:4 And as for you, if you walk before
Me as your father David walked, with a heart of integrity and uprightness, doing all I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and ordinances,
1 Kings 9:3 And the LORD said to him: “I have heard your prayer and petition before
Me. I have consecrated this temple you have built by putting My Na
me there forever; My eyes and My heart will be there for all ti
me."
1 Kings 9:2 the LORD appeared to him a second ti
me, as He had appeared to him at Gibeon.
1 Kings 8:66 On the fifteenth day Solomon sent the people away. So they blessed the king and went ho
me, joyful and glad in heart for all the good things that the LORD had done for His servant David and for His people Israel.
1 Kings 8:65 So at that ti
me Solomon and all Israel with him—a great assembly of people from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of Egypt—kept the feast before the LORD our God for seven days and seven more days—fourteen days in all."
1 Kings 8:64 On that sa
me day the king consecrated the middle of the courtyard in front of the house of the LORD, and there he offered the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, since the bronze altar before the LORD was too small to contain all these offerings.
1 Kings 8:61 So let your heart be fully devoted to the LORD our God, as it is this day, to walk in His statutes and to keep His command
ments.”"
1 Kings 8:58 May He incline our hearts to Himself, to walk in all His ways and to keep the command
ments and statutes and ordinances He commanded our fathers.
1 Kings 8:50 May You forgive Your people who have sinned against You and all the transgressions they have committed against You, and may You grant them compassion in the eyes of their captors to show them
mercy.
1 Kings 8:48 and when they return to You with all their heart and soul in the land of the enemies who took them captive, and when they pray to You in the direction of the land that You gave to their fathers, the city You have chosen, and the house I have built for Your Na
me,
1 Kings 8:47 and when they co
me to their senses in the land to which they were taken, and they repent and plead with You in the land of their captors, saying, ‘We have sinned and done wrong; we have acted wickedly,’"
1 Kings 8:46 When they sin against You—for there is no one who does not sin—and You beco
me angry with them and deliver them to an enemy who takes them as captives to his own land, whether far or near,"
1 Kings 8:44 When Your people go to war against their enemies, wherever You send them, and when they pray to the LORD in the direction of the city You have chosen and the house I have built for Your Na
me,
1 Kings 8:43 then may You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You. Then all the peoples of the earth will know Your na
me and fear You, as do Your people Israel, and they will know that this house I have built is called by Your Na
me.
1 Kings 8:42 for they will hear of Your great na
me and mighty hand and outstretched arm—when he co
mes and prays toward this temple,"
1 Kings 8:41 And as for the foreigner who is not of Your people Israel but has co
me from a distant land because of Your na
me—"
1 Kings 8:39 be heard by You from heaven, Your dwelling place. And may You forgive and act, and repay each man according to all his ways, since You know his heart—for You alone know the hearts of all
men—"
1 Kings 8:37 When famine or plague co
mes upon the land, or blight or mildew or locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemy besieges them in their cities, whatever plague or sickness may co
me,
1 Kings 8:35 When the skies are shut and there is no rain because Your people have sinned against You, and they pray toward this place and confess Your na
me, and they turn from their sins because You have afflicted them,
1 Kings 8:33 When Your people Israel are defeated before an enemy because they have sinned against You, and they return to You and confess Your na
me, praying and pleading with You in this temple,
1 Kings 8:31 When a man sins against his neighbor and is required to take an oath, and he co
mes to take an oath before Your altar in this temple,
1 Kings 8:29 May Your eyes be open toward this temple night and day, toward the place of which You said, ‘My Na
me shall be there,’ so that You may hear the prayer that Your servant prays toward this place."
1 Kings 8:25 Therefore now, O LORD, God of Israel, keep for Your servant, my father David, what You promised when You said: ‘You will never fail to have a man to sit before
Me on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants guard their way to walk before
Me as you have done.’"
1 Kings 8:20 Now the LORD has fulfilled the word that He spoke. I have succeeded my father David, and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised. I have built the house for the Na
me of the LORD, the God of Israel.
1 Kings 8:19 Nevertheless, you are not the one to build it; but your son, your own offspring, will build the house for My Na
me.’"
1 Kings 8:18 But the LORD said to my father David, ‘Since it was in your heart to build a house for My Na
me, you have done well to have this in your heart."
1 Kings 8:17 Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the Na
me of the LORD, the God of Israel.
1 Kings 8:16 ‘Since the day I brought My people Israel out of Egypt, I have not chosen a city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house so that My Na
me would be there. But I have chosen David to be over My people Israel.’"
1 Kings 8:10 And when the priests ca
me out of the Holy Place, the cloud filled the house of the LORD
1 Kings 8:9 There was nothing in the ark except the two stone tablets that Moses had placed in it at Horeb, where the LORD had made a covenant with the Israelites after they had co
me out of the land of Egypt.
1 Kings 8:4 and they brought up the ark of the LORD and the Tent of
Meeting with all its sacred furnishings. So the priests and Levites carried them up.
1 Kings 8:2 And all the
men of Israel ca
me together to King Solomon at the feast in the seventh month, the month of Ethanim.
1 Kings 8:1 At that ti
me Solomon assembled before him in Jerusalem the elders of Israel—all the tribal heads and family leaders of the Israelites—to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from Zion, the City of David."
1 Kings 7:51 So all the work that King Solomon had perfor
med for the house of the LORD was completed. Then Solomon brought in the items his father David had dedicated—the silver, the gold, and the furnishings—and he placed them in the treasuries of the house of the LORD."
1 Kings 7:50 the pure gold basins, wick trim
mers, sprinkling bowls, ladles, and censers; and the gold hinges for the doors of the inner temple (that is, the Most Holy Place) as well as for the doors of the main hall of the temple.
1 Kings 7:42 the four hundred po
megranates for the two sets of network (two rows of po
megranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars);
1 Kings 7:38 He also made ten bronze basins, each holding forty baths and
measuring four cubits across, one basin for each of the ten stands.
1 Kings 7:37 In this way he made the ten stands, each with the sa
me casting, di
mensions, and shape.
1 Kings 7:33 The wheels were made like chariot wheels; their axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all of cast
metal.
1 Kings 7:32 There were four wheels under the panels, and the axles of the wheels were attached to the stand; each wheel was a cubit and a half in dia
meter.
1 Kings 7:24 Below the rim, orna
mental buds encircled it, ten per cubit all the way around the Sea, cast in two rows as a part of the Sea.
1 Kings 7:23 He also made the Sea of cast
metal. It was circular in shape,
measuring ten cubits from rim to rim, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
1 Kings 7:21 Thus he set up the pillars at the portico of the temple. The pillar to the south he na
med Jachin, and the pillar to the north he na
med Boaz.
1 Kings 7:20 On the capitals of both pillars, just above the rounded projection next to the network, were the two hundred po
megranates in rows encircling each capital.
1 Kings 7:18 Likewise, he made the pillars with two rows of po
megranates around each grating to cover each capital atop the pillars.
1 Kings 7:14 He was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a craftsman in bronze. Huram had great skill, understanding, and knowledge for every kind of bronze work. So he ca
me to King Solomon and carried out all his work.
1 Kings 7:12 The great courtyard was surrounded by three rows of dressed stone and a row of trim
med cedar beams, as were the inner courtyard and portico of the house of the LORD.
1 Kings 7:10 The foundations were laid with large, costly stones, so
me ten cubits long and so
me eight cubits long.
1 Kings 7:9 All these buildings were constructed with costly stones, cut to size and trim
med with saws inside and out from the foundation to the eaves, and from the outside to the great courtyard.
1 Kings 7:5 All the doorways had rectangular fra
mes, with the openings facing one another in three tiers.
1 Kings 6:36 Solomon built the inner courtyard with three rows of dressed stone and one row of trim
med cedar beams.
1 Kings 6:35 He carved into them cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers; and he overlaid them with gold, ham
mered evenly over the carvings.
1 Kings 6:33 In the sa
me way he made four-sided doorposts of olive wood for the sanctuary entrance.
1 Kings 6:32 The double doors were made of olive wood, and he carved into them cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers and overlaid the cherubim and palm trees with ham
mered gold.
1 Kings 6:25 The second cherub also
measured ten cubits; both cherubim had the sa
me size and shape,
1 Kings 6:12 “As for this temple you are building, if you walk in My statutes, carry out My ordinances, and keep all My command
ments by walking in them, I will fulfill through you the promise I made to your father David."
1 Kings 6:11 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Solomon, saying:
1 Kings 6:7 The temple was constructed using finished stones cut at the quarry, so that no ham
mer or chisel or any other iron tool was heard in the temple while it was being built.
1 Kings 6:4 He also had narrow windows fra
med high in the temple.
1 Kings 6:1 In the four hundred and eightieth year after the Israelites had co
me out of the land of Egypt, in the month of Ziv, the second month of the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, he began to build the house of the LORD."
1 Kings 5:16 not including his 3,300 fore
men who supervised the workers.
1 Kings 5:14 He sent them to Lebanon in monthly shifts of 10,000
men, so that they would spend one month in Lebanon and two months at ho
me. And Adoniram was in charge of the forced labor.
1 Kings 5:13 Then King Solomon conscripted a labor force of 30,000
men from all Israel.
1 Kings 5:9 My servants will haul the logs from Lebanon to the Sea, and I will float them as rafts by sea to the place you specify. There I will separate the logs, and you can take them away. And in exchange, you can
meet my needs by providing my household with food.”"
1 Kings 5:8 Then Hiram sent a reply to Solomon, saying: “I have received your
message; I will do all you desire regarding the cedar and cypress timber."
1 Kings 5:7 When Hiram received Solomon’s
message, he rejoiced greatly and said, “Blessed be the LORD this day! He has given David a wise son over this great people!”"
1 Kings 5:6 Now therefore, order that cedars of Lebanon be cut down for
me. My servants will be with your servants, and I will pay your servants whatever wages you set, for you know that there are none among us as skilled in logging as the Sidonians.”"
1 Kings 5:5 So behold, I plan to build a house for the Na
me of the LORD my God, according to what the LORD said to my father David: ‘I will put your son on your throne in your place, and he will build the house for My Na
me.’"
1 Kings 5:4 But now the LORD my God has given
me rest on every side, and there is no adversary or crisis.
1 Kings 5:3 “As you are well aware, due to the wars waged on all sides against my father David, he could not build a house for the Na
me of the LORD his God until the LORD had put his enemies under his feet."
1 Kings 4:34 So
men of all nations ca
me to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, sent by all the kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom."
1 Kings 4:31 He was wiser than all
men—wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, and wiser than Heman, Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fa
me spread throughout the surrounding nations."
1 Kings 4:30 Solomon’s wisdom was greater than that of all the
men of the East, greater than all the wisdom of Egypt."
1 Kings 4:29 And God gave Solomon wisdom, exceedingly deep insight, and understanding beyond
measure, like the sand on the seashore.
1 Kings 4:27 Each month the governors in turn provided food for King Solomon and all who ca
me to his table. They saw to it that nothing was lacking.
1 Kings 4:22 Solomon’s provisions for a single day were thirty cors of fine flour, sixty cors of
meal,"
1 Kings 4:20 The people of Judah and Israel were as nu
merous as the sand on the seashore, and they were eating and drinking and rejoicing.
1 Kings 4:12 Baana son of Ahilud in Taanach, in
Megiddo, and in all of Beth-shean next to Zarethan below Jezreel, from Beth-shean to Abel-
meholah and on past Jok
meam;
1 Kings 4:9 Ben-deker in Makaz, in Shaalbim, in Beth-she
mesh, and in Elon-beth-hanan;
1 Kings 4:8 and these were their na
mes: Ben-hur in the hill country of Ephraim;
1 Kings 3:28 When all Israel heard of the judg
ment the king had given, they stood in awe of him, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to administer justice.
1 Kings 3:27 Then the king gave his ruling: “Give the living baby to the first woman. By no
means should you kill him; she is his mother.”"
1 Kings 3:24 The king continued, “Bring
me a sword.” So they brought him a sword,"
1 Kings 3:17 One woman said, “Please, my lord, this woman and I live in the sa
me house, and I gave birth while she was in the house."
1 Kings 3:16 At that ti
me two prostitutes ca
me to the king and stood before him.
1 Kings 3:14 So if you walk in My ways and keep My statutes and command
ments, just as your father David did, I will prolong your days.”"
1 Kings 3:11 So God said to him, “Since you have asked for this instead of requesting long life or wealth for yourself or death for your enemies—but you have asked for discern
ment to administer justice—"
1 Kings 3:8 Your servant is here among the people You have chosen, a people too nu
merous to count or number.
1 Kings 3:7 And now, O LORD my God, You have made Your servant king in my father David’s place. But I am only a little child, not knowing how to go out or co
me in."
1 Kings 3:2 The people, however, were still sacrificing on the high places because a house for the Na
me of the LORD had not yet been built.
1 Kings 3:1 Later, Solomon for
med an alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt by marrying his daughter. Solomon brought her to the City of David until he had finished building his palace and the house of the LORD, as well as the wall around Jerusalem.
1 Kings 2:46 Then the king commanded Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck Shi
mei down, and he died. Thus the kingdom was firmly established in the hand of Solomon.
1 Kings 2:42 the king summoned Shi
mei and said to him, “Did I not make you swear by the LORD and warn you, ‘On the day you leave and go elsewhere, know for sure that you will die’? And you told
me, ‘The sentence is fair; I will comply.’"
1 Kings 2:41 When Solomon was told that Shi
mei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and had returned,
1 Kings 2:40 So Shi
mei saddled his donkey and set out to Achish at Gath in search of his slaves, and he brought them back from Gath.
1 Kings 2:39 After three years, however, two of Shi
mei’s slaves ran away to Achish son of Maacah, king of Gath. And Shi
mei was told, “Look, your slaves are in Gath.”"
1 Kings 2:38 “The sentence is fair,” Shi
mei replied. “Your servant will do as my lord the king has spoken.” And Shi
mei lived in Jerusalem for a long ti
me."
1 Kings 2:36 Then the king summoned Shi
mei and said to him, “Build a house for yourself in Jerusalem and live there, but do not go anywhere else."
1 Kings 2:34 So Benaiah son of Jehoiada went up, struck down Joab, and killed him. He was buried at his own ho
me in the wilderness.
1 Kings 2:33 Their blood will co
me back upon the heads of Joab and his descendants forever; but for David, his descendants, his house, and his throne, there shall be peace from the LORD forever.”"
1 Kings 2:32 The LORD will bring his bloodshed back upon his own head, for without the knowledge of my father David he struck down two
men more righteous and better than he when he put to the sword Abner son of Ner, commander of Israel’s army, and Amasa son of Jether, commander of Judah’s army."
1 Kings 2:31 And the king replied, “Do just as he says. Strike him down and bury him, and so remove from
me and from the house of my father the innocent blood that Joab shed."
1 Kings 2:30 And Benaiah entered the tent of the LORD and said to Joab, “The king says, ‘Co
me out!’” But Joab replied, “No, I will die here.” So Benaiah relayed the
message to the king, saying, “This is how Joab answered
me.”"
1 Kings 2:26 Then the king said to Abiathar the priest, “Go back to your fields in Anathoth. Even though you deserve to die, I will not put you to death at this ti
me, since you carried the ark of the Lord GOD before my father David, and you suffered through all that my father suffered.”"
1 Kings 2:24 And now, as surely as the LORD lives—the One who established
me, who set
me on the throne of my father David, and who founded for
me a dynasty as He promised—surely Adonijah shall be put to death today!”"
1 Kings 2:23 Then King Solomon swore by the LORD: “May God punish
me, and ever so severely, if Adonijah has not made this request at the expense of his life."
1 Kings 2:20 “I have just one small request of you,” she said. “Do not deny
me.” “Make your request, my mother,” the king replied, “for I will not deny you.”"
1 Kings 2:17 Adonijah replied, “Please speak to King Solomon, since he will not turn you down. Let him give
me Abishag the Shunammite as my wife.”"
1 Kings 2:16 So now I have just one request of you; do not deny
me.” “State your request,” she told him."
1 Kings 2:15 “You know that the kingship was mine,” he said. “All Israel expected that I should reign, but the kingship has turned to my brother, for it has co
me to him from the LORD."
1 Kings 2:14 Then he said, “I have so
mething to tell you.” “Say it,” she answered."
1 Kings 2:13 Now Adonijah son of Haggith went to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, and she asked, “Do you co
me in peace?” “Yes, in peace,” he replied."
1 Kings 2:8 Keep an eye on Shi
mei the son of Gera, the Benjamite from Bahurim who is with you. He called down bitter curses against
me on the day I went to Mahanaim, but when he ca
me down to
meet
me at the Jordan, I swore to him by the LORD: ‘I will never put you to the sword.’"
1 Kings 2:7 But show loving devotion to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be among those who eat at your table, because they stood by
me when I fled from your brother Absalom.
1 Kings 2:5 Moreover, you know what Joab son of Zeruiah did to
me—what he did to Abner son of Ner and Amasa son of Jether, the two commanders of the armies of Israel. He killed them in peaceti
me to avenge the blood of war. He stained with the blood of war the belt around his waist and the sandals on his feet."
1 Kings 2:4 and so that the LORD may fulfill His promise to
me: ‘If your descendants take heed to walk faithfully before
Me with all their heart and soul, you will never fail to have a man on the throne of Israel.’"
1 Kings 2:3 And keep the charge of the LORD your God to walk in His ways and to keep His statutes, command
ments, ordinances, and decrees, as is written in the Law of Moses, so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you turn,
1 Kings 2:1 As the ti
me drew near for David to die, he charged his son Solomon,
1 Kings 1:53 So King Solomon summoned Adonijah down from the altar, and he ca
me and bowed down before King Solomon, who said to him, “Go to your ho
me.”"
1 Kings 1:51 It was reported to Solomon: “Behold, Adonijah fears King Solomon, and he has taken hold of the horns of the altar, saying, ‘Let King Solomon first swear to
me not to put his servant to the sword.’”"
1 Kings 1:47 The king’s servants have also gone to congratulate our lord King David, saying, ‘May your God make the na
me of Solomon more famous than your own na
me, and may He make his throne greater than your throne.’ And the king has bowed in worship on his bed,"
1 Kings 1:42 As he was speaking, suddenly Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest arrived. “Co
me in,” said Adonijah, “for you are a man of valor. You must be bringing good news.”"
1 Kings 1:39 Zadok the priest took the horn of oil from the tabernacle and anointed Solomon. Then they blew the ram’s horn, and all the people proclai
med, “Long live King Solomon!”"
1 Kings 1:36 “A
men,” replied Benaiah son of Jehoiada. “May the LORD, the God of my lord the king, so declare it."
1 Kings 1:35 Then you shall go up with him, and he is to co
me and sit on my throne and reign in my place. For I have appointed him ruler over Israel and Judah.”"
1 Kings 1:32 Then King David said, “Call in for
me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada.” So they ca
me before the king."
1 Kings 1:30 I will carry out this very day exactly what I swore to you by the LORD, the God of Israel: Surely your son Solomon will reign after
me, and he will sit on my throne in my place.”"
1 Kings 1:29 And the king swore an oath, saying, “As surely as the LORD lives, who has redee
med my life from all distress,"
1 Kings 1:28 Then King David said, “Call in Bathsheba for
me.” So she ca
me into the king’s presence and stood before him."
1 Kings 1:26 But
me your servant he did not invite, nor Zadok the priest, nor Benaiah son of Jehoiada, nor your servant Solomon.
1 Kings 1:24 “My lord the king,” said Nathan, “did you say, ‘Adonijah will reign after
me, and he will sit on my throne’?"
1 Kings 1:18 But now, behold, Adonijah has beco
me king, and you, my lord the king, did not know it.
1 Kings 1:17 “My lord,” she replied, “you yourself swore to your maidservant by the LORD your God: ‘Surely your son Solomon will reign after
me, and he will sit on my throne.’"
1 Kings 1:14 Then, while you are still there speaking with the king, I will co
me in after you and confirm your words.”"
1 Kings 1:13 Go at once to King David and say, ‘My lord the king, did you not swear to your maidservant, “Surely your son Solomon will reign after
me, and he will sit on my throne”? Why then has Adonijah beco
me king?’"
1 Kings 1:12 Now please, co
me and let
me advise you. Save your own life and the life of your son Solomon.
1 Kings 1:11 Then Nathan said to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, “Have you not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith has beco
me king, and our lord David does not know it?"
1 Kings 1:10 But he did not invite Nathan the prophet, Benaiah, the mighty
men, or his brother Solomon.
1 Kings 1:9 And Adonijah sacrificed sheep, oxen, and fattened calves near the stone of Zoheleth, which is next to En-rogel. He invited all his royal brothers and all the
men of Judah who were servants of the king.
1 Kings 1:8 But Zadok the priest, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shi
mei, Rei, and David’s mighty
men would not join Adonijah."
1 Kings 1:6 (His father had never once reprimanded him by saying, “Why do you act this way?” Adonijah was also very handso
me, born next after Absalom.)"
1 Kings 1:5 At that ti
me Adonijah, David’s son by Haggith, began to exalt himself, saying, “I will be king!” And he acquired chariots and horse
men and fifty
men to run ahead of him."
2 Samuel 24:24 “No,” replied the king, “I insist on paying a price, for I will not offer to the LORD my God burnt offerings that cost
me nothing.” So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver."
2 Samuel 24:21 “Why has my lord the king co
me to his servant?” Araunah said. “To buy your threshing floor,” David replied, “that I may build an altar to the LORD, so that the plague upon the people may be halted.”"
2 Samuel 24:18 And that day Gad ca
me to David and said to him, “Go up and build an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.”"
2 Samuel 24:17 When David saw the angel striking down the people, he said to the LORD, “Surely I, the shepherd, have sinned and acted wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? Please, let Your hand fall upon
me and my father’s house.”"
2 Samuel 24:16 But when the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the LORD relented from the calamity and said to the angel who was destroying the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand now!” At that ti
me the angel of the LORD was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite."
2 Samuel 24:15 So the LORD sent a plague upon Israel from that morning until the appointed ti
me, and seventy thousand of the people from Dan to Beersheba died.
2 Samuel 24:14 David answered Gad, “I am deeply distressed. Please, let us fall into the hand of the LORD, for His
mercies are great; but do not let
me fall into the hands of
men.”"
2 Samuel 24:13 So Gad went and said to David, “Do you choose to endure three years of famine in your land, three months of fleeing the pursuit of your enemies, or three days of plague upon your land? Now then, think it over and decide how I should reply to Him who sent
me.”"
2 Samuel 24:11 When David got up in the morning, a revelation from the LORD had co
me to Gad the prophet, David’s seer:"
2 Samuel 24:9 And Joab reported to the king the total number of the troops. In Israel there were 800,000
men of valor who drew the sword, and in Judah there were 500,000.
2 Samuel 24:3 But Joab replied to the king, “May the LORD your God multiply the troops a hundred ti
mes over, and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king want to do such a thing?”"
2 Samuel 23:24 Now these were
members of the Thirty: Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
2 Samuel 23:23 He was most honored among the Thirty, but he did not beco
me one of the Three. And David appointed him over his guard.
2 Samuel 23:22 These were the exploits of Benaiah son of Jehoiada, who won a na
me alongside the three mighty
men.
2 Samuel 23:19 Was he not more honored than the Three? And he beca
me their commander, even though he was not included among the Three.
2 Samuel 23:18 Now Abishai, the brother of Joab and son of Zeruiah, was chief of the Three, and he lifted his spear against three hundred
men, killed them, and won a na
me along with the Three.
2 Samuel 23:17 saying, “Far be it from
me, O LORD, to do this! Is this not the blood of the
men who risked their lives?” So he refused to drink it. Such were the exploits of the three mighty
men."
2 Samuel 23:16 So the three mighty
men broke through the Philistine camp, drew water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem, and brought it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured it out to the LORD,
2 Samuel 23:15 David longed for water and said, “Oh, that so
meone would get
me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!”"
2 Samuel 23:14 At that ti
me David was in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was at Bethlehem.
2 Samuel 23:13 At harvest ti
me, three of the thirty chief
men went down to David at the cave of Adullam, while a company of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim.
2 Samuel 23:9 Next in command was Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite. As one of the three mighty
men, he went with David to taunt the Philistines who had gathered for battle at Pas-dammim. The
men of Israel retreated,
2 Samuel 23:8 These are the na
mes of David’s mighty
men: Josheb-basshebeth the Tahchemonite was chief of the Three. He wielded his spear against eight hundred
men, whom he killed at one ti
me."
2 Samuel 23:7 The man who touches them must be ar
med with iron or with the shaft of a spear. The fire burns them to ashes in the place where they lie.”"
2 Samuel 23:5 Is not my house right with God? For He has established with
me an everlasting covenant, ordered and secured in every part. Will He not bring about my full salvation and my every desire?
2 Samuel 23:3 The God of Israel spoke; the Rock of Israel said to
me, ‘He who rules the people with justice, who rules in the fear of God,"
2 Samuel 23:2 The Spirit of the LORD spoke through
me; His word was on my tongue.
2 Samuel 22:50 Therefore I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing praises to Your na
me.
2 Samuel 22:49 who frees
me from my enemies. You exalt
me above my foes; You rescue
me from violent
men.
2 Samuel 22:48 the God who avenges
me and brings down nations beneath
me,
2 Samuel 22:46 Foreigners lose heart and co
me trembling from their strongholds.
2 Samuel 22:45 Foreigners cower before
me; when they hear
me, they obey
me.
2 Samuel 22:44 You have delivered
me from the strife of my people; You have preserved
me as the head of nations; a people I had not known shall serve
me.
2 Samuel 22:41 You have made my enemies retreat before
me; I put an end to those who hated
me.
2 Samuel 22:40 You have ar
med
me with strength for battle; You have subdued my foes beneath
me.
2 Samuel 22:38 I pursued my enemies and destroyed them; I did not turn back until they were consu
med.
2 Samuel 22:37 You broaden the path beneath
me so that my ankles do not give way.
2 Samuel 22:36 You have given
me Your shield of salvation, and Your gentleness exalts
me.
2 Samuel 22:34 He makes my feet like those of a deer and stations
me upon the heights.
2 Samuel 22:26 To the faithful You show Yourself faithful, to the bla
meless You show Yourself bla
meless;
2 Samuel 22:25 So the LORD has repaid
me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in His sight.
2 Samuel 22:24 And I have been bla
meless before Him and kept myself from iniquity.
2 Samuel 22:23 For all His ordinances are before
me; I have not disregarded His statutes.
2 Samuel 22:21 The LORD has rewarded
me according to my righteousness; He has repaid
me according to the cleanness of my hands.
2 Samuel 22:20 He brought
me out into the open; He rescued
me because He delighted in
me.
2 Samuel 22:19 They confronted
me in my day of calamity, but the LORD was my support.
2 Samuel 22:18 He rescued
me from my powerful enemy, from foes too mighty for
me.
2 Samuel 22:17 He reached down from on high and took hold of
me; He drew
me out of deep waters.
2 Samuel 22:10 He parted the heavens and ca
me down with dark clouds beneath His feet.
2 Samuel 22:9 Smoke rose from His nostrils, and consuming fire ca
me from His mouth; glowing coals blazed forth.
2 Samuel 22:6 The cords of Sheol entangled
me; the snares of death confronted
me.
2 Samuel 22:5 For the waves of death engulfed
me; the torrents of chaos overwhel
med
me.
2 Samuel 22:3 My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation. My stronghold, my refuge, and my Savior, You save
me from violence.
♫2 2 Samuel 21:21 and when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of David’s brother Shi
mei killed him."
2 Samuel 21:18 So
me ti
me later at Gob, there was another battle with the Philistines. At that ti
me Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, one of the descendants of Rapha.
2 Samuel 21:17 But Abishai son of Zeruiah ca
me to his aid, struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then David’s
men swore to him, “You must never again go out with us to battle, so that the lamp of Israel may not be extinguished.”"
2 Samuel 21:15 Once again the Philistines waged war against Israel, and David and his servants went down and fought against the Philistines; but David beca
me exhausted.
2 Samuel 21:12 he went and took the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan from the
men of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the public square of Beth-shan where the Philistines had hung the bodies after they had struck down Saul at Gilboa.
2 Samuel 21:8 But the king took Armoni and
Mephibosheth, the two sons whom Rizpah daughter of Aiah had borne to Saul, as well as the five sons whom
Merab daughter of Saul had borne to Adriel son of Barzillai the
Meholathite.
2 Samuel 21:7 Now the king spared
Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, because of the oath before the LORD between David and Jonathan son of Saul.
2 Samuel 21:5 And they answered the king, “As for the man who consu
med us and plotted against us to exterminate us from existing within any border of Israel,"
2 Samuel 21:3 So David asked the Gibeonites, “What shall I do for you? How can I make a
mends so that you may bless the inheritance of the LORD?”"
2 Samuel 20:22 Then the woman went to all the people with her wise counsel, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bichri and threw it to Joab. So he blew the ram’s horn and his
men dispersed from the city, each to his own ho
me. And Joab returned to the king in Jerusalem."
2 Samuel 20:21 That is not the case. But a man na
med Sheba son of Bichri, from the hill country of Ephraim, has lifted up his hand against the king, against David. Deliver him alone, and I will depart from the city.” “Look,” the woman replied, “his head will be thrown to you over the wall.”"
2 Samuel 20:20 “Far be it!” Joab declared. “Far be it from
me to swallow up or destroy!"
2 Samuel 20:17 When he had co
me near to her, the woman asked, “Are you Joab?” “I am,” he replied. “Listen to the words of your servant,” she said. “I am listening,” he answered."
2 Samuel 20:16 a wise woman called out from the city, “Listen! Listen! Please tell Joab to co
me here so that I may speak with him.”"
2 Samuel 20:15 And Joab’s troops ca
me and besieged Sheba in Abel-beth-maacah and built a siege ramp against the outer rampart of the city. As all the troops with Joab were battering the wall to topple it,"
2 Samuel 20:13 As soon as Amasa’s body was removed from the road, all the
men went on with Joab to pursue Sheba son of Bichri."
2 Samuel 20:12 But Amasa wallowed in his blood in the middle of the road, and when the man saw that all the troops were stopping there, he dragged the body off the road into a field and threw a gar
ment over it.
2 Samuel 20:11 One of Joab’s young
men stood near Amasa and said, “Whoever favors Joab, and whoever is for David, let him follow Joab!”"
2 Samuel 20:7 So Joab’s
men, along with the Cherethites, the Pelethites, and all the mighty
men, marched out of Jerusalem in pursuit of Sheba son of Bichri."
2 Samuel 20:5 So Amasa went to summon Judah, but he took longer than the ti
me allotted him.
2 Samuel 20:4 Then the king said to Amasa, “Summon the
men of Judah to co
me to
me within three days, and be here yourself.”"
2 Samuel 20:2 So all the
men of Israel deserted David to follow Sheba son of Bichri. But the
men of Judah stayed by their king all the way from the Jordan to Jerusalem.
2 Samuel 20:1 Now a worthless man na
med Sheba son of Bichri, a Benjamite, happened to be there, and he blew the ram’s horn and shouted: “We have no share in David, no inheritance in Jesse’s son. Every man to his tent, O Israel!”"
2 Samuel 19:43 “We have ten shares in the king,” answered the
men of Israel, “so we have more claim to David than you. Why then do you despise us? Were we not the first to speak of restoring our king?” But the
men of Judah pressed even harder than the
men of Israel."
2 Samuel 19:42 And all the
men of Judah replied to the
men of Israel, “We did this because the king is our relative. Why does this anger you? Have we ever eaten at the king’s expense or received anything for ourselves?”"
2 Samuel 19:41 Soon all the
men of Israel ca
me to the king and asked, “Why did our brothers, the
men of Judah, take you away secretly and bring the king and his household across the Jordan, together with all of David’s
men?”"
2 Samuel 19:39 So all the people crossed the Jordan, and then the king crossed over. The king kissed Barzillai and blessed him, and Barzillai returned ho
me.
2 Samuel 19:38 The king replied, “Chimham will cross over with
me, and I will do for him what seems good in your sight, and I will do for you whatever you desire of
me.”"
2 Samuel 19:36 Your servant could go with the king only a short distance past the Jordan; why should the king repay
me with such a reward?
2 Samuel 19:35 I am now eighty years old. Can I discern what is good and what is not? Can your servant taste what he eats or drinks? Can I still hear the voice of singing
men and wo
men? Why should your servant be an added burden to my lord the king?
2 Samuel 19:33 The king said to Barzillai, “Cross over with
me, and I will provide for you at my side in Jerusalem.”"
2 Samuel 19:31 Now Barzillai the Gileadite had co
me down from Rogelim to cross the Jordan with the king and send him on his way from there.
2 Samuel 19:30 And
Mephibosheth said to the king, “Instead, since my lord the king has safely co
me to his own house, let Ziba take it all!”"
2 Samuel 19:26 “My lord the king,” he replied, “because I am la
me, I said, ‘I will have my donkey saddled so that I may ride on it and go with the king.’ But my servant Ziba deceived
me,"
2 Samuel 19:25 And he ca
me from Jerusalem to
meet the king, who asked him, “
Mephibosheth, why did you not go with
me?”"
2 Samuel 19:24 Then
Mephibosheth, Saul’s grandson, went down to
meet the king. He had not cared for his feet or trim
med his mustache or washed his clothes from the day the king had left until the day he returned safely."
2 Samuel 19:23 So the king said to Shi
mei, “You shall not die.” And the king swore an oath to him."
2 Samuel 19:21 But Abishai son of Zeruiah said, “Shouldn’t Shi
mei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD’s anointed?”"
2 Samuel 19:20 For your servant knows that I have sinned, so here I am today as the first of all the house of Joseph to co
me down to
meet my lord the king.”"
2 Samuel 19:19 and said, “My lord, do not hold
me guilty, and do not re
member your servant’s wrongdoing on the day my lord the king left Jerusalem. May the king not take it to heart."
2 Samuel 19:18 and crossed at the ford to carry over the king’s household and to do what was good in his sight. When Shi
mei son of Gera crossed the Jordan, he fell down before the king"
2 Samuel 19:17 along with a thousand
men of Benjamin, as well as Ziba the steward of the house of Saul and his fifteen sons and twenty servants. They rushed down to the Jordan before the king
2 Samuel 19:16 Then Shi
mei son of Gera, a Benjamite from Bahurim, hurried down with the
men of Judah to
meet King David,
2 Samuel 19:15 So the king returned, and when he arrived at the Jordan, the
men of Judah ca
me to Gilgal to
meet him and escort him across the Jordan.
2 Samuel 19:14 So he swayed the hearts of all the
men of Judah as though they were one man, and they sent word to the king: “Return, you and all your servants.”"
2 Samuel 19:13 And say to Amasa, ‘Aren’t you my flesh and blood? May God punish
me, and ever so severely, if from this ti
me you are not the commander of my army in place of Joab!’”"
2 Samuel 19:11 Then King David sent this
message to Zadok and Abiathar, the priests: “Say to the elders of Judah, ‘Why should you be the last to restore the king to his palace, since the talk of all Israel has reached the king at his quarters?"
2 Samuel 19:8 So the king got up and sat in the gate, and all the people were told: “Behold, the king is sitting in the gate.” So they all ca
me before the king.
Meanwhile, the Israelites had fled, each man to his ho
me."
2 Samuel 19:6 You love those who hate you and hate those who love you! For you have made it clear today that the commanders and soldiers
mean nothing to you. I know today that if Absalom were alive and all of us were dead, it would have pleased you!
2 Samuel 18:32 The king asked the Cushite, “Is the young man Absalom all right?” And the Cushite replied, “May what has beco
me of the young man happen to the enemies of my lord the king and to all who rise up against you to harm you.”"
2 Samuel 18:31 Just then the Cushite ca
me and said, “May my lord the king hear the good news: Today the LORD has avenged you of all who rose up against you!”"
2 Samuel 18:28 Then Ahimaaz called out to the king, “All is well!” And he bowed facedown before the king. He continued, “Blessed be the LORD your God! He has delivered up the
men who raised their hands against my lord the king.”"
2 Samuel 18:27 The watchman said, “The first man appears to
me to be running like Ahimaaz son of Zadok.” “This is a good man,” said the king. “He co
mes with good news.”"
2 Samuel 18:22 Ahimaaz son of Zadok, however, persisted and said to Joab, “Regardless of whatever may happen, please let
me also run behind the Cushite!” “My son,” Joab replied, “why do you want to run, since you will not receive a reward?”"
2 Samuel 18:19 Then Ahimaaz son of Zadok said, “Please let
me run and tell the king the good news that the LORD has avenged him of his enemies.”"
2 Samuel 18:18 During his lifeti
me, Absalom had set up for himself a pillar in the King’s Valley, for he had said, “I have no son to preserve the
memory of my na
me.” So he gave the pillar his na
me, and to this day it is called Absalom’s Monu
ment."
2 Samuel 18:17 They took Absalom, cast him into a large pit in the forest, and piled a huge mound of stones over him.
Meanwhile, all the Israelites fled, each to his ho
me.
2 Samuel 18:15 And ten young
men who carried Joab’s armor surrounded Absalom, struck him, and killed him."
2 Samuel 18:13 If I had jeopardized my own life—and nothing is hidden from the king—you would have abandoned
me.”"
2 Samuel 18:11 “You just saw him!” Joab exclai
med. “Why did you not strike him to the ground right there? I would have given you ten shekels of silver and a warrior’s belt!”"
2 Samuel 18:10 When one of the
men saw this, he told Joab, “I just saw Absalom hanging in an oak tree!”"
2 Samuel 18:9 Now Absalom was riding on his mule when he
met the servants of David, and as the mule went under the thick branches of a large oak, Absalom’s head was caught fast in the tree. The mule under him kept going, so that he was suspended in midair."
2 Samuel 18:7 There the people of Israel were defeated by David’s servants, and the slaughter was great that day—twenty thousand
men."
2 Samuel 17:29 honey, curds, sheep, and cheese from the herd for David and his people to eat. For they said, “The people have beco
me hungry, exhausted, and thirsty in the wilderness.”"
2 Samuel 17:27 When David ca
me to Mahanaim, he was
met by Shobi son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, Machir son of Ammiel from Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim.
2 Samuel 17:25 Absalom had appointed Amasa over the army in place of Joab. Amasa was the son of a man na
med Ithra, the Ishmaelite who had married Abigail, the daughter of Nahash and sister of Zeruiah the mother of Joab.
2 Samuel 17:24 Then David went to Mahanaim, and Absalom crossed the Jordan with all the
men of Israel.
2 Samuel 17:23 When Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and set out for his house in his ho
metown. He put his affairs in order and hanged himself. So he died and was buried in his father’s tomb."
2 Samuel 17:21 After the
men had gone, Ahimaaz and Jonathan climbed up out of the well and went to inform King David, saying, “Get up and cross over the river at once, for Ahithophel has given this advice against you.”"
2 Samuel 17:20 When Absalom’s servants ca
me to the woman at the house, they asked, “Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?” “They have crossed over the brook,” she replied. The
men searched but did not find them, so they returned to Jerusalem."
2 Samuel 17:18 But a young man did see them and told Absalom. So the two left quickly and ca
me to the house of a man in Bahurim. He had a well in his courtyard, and they climbed down into it.
2 Samuel 17:17 Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying at En-rogel, where a servant girl would co
me and pass along information to them. They in turn would go and inform King David, for they dared not be seen entering the city.
2 Samuel 17:14 Then Absalom and all the
men of Israel said, “The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than that of Ahithophel.” For the LORD had purposed to thwart the good counsel of Ahithophel in order to bring disaster on Absalom."
2 Samuel 17:12 Then we will attack David wherever we find him, and we will descend on him like dew on the ground. And of all the
men with him, not even one will remain.
2 Samuel 17:10 Then even the most valiant soldier with the heart of a lion will
melt with fear, because all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man who has valiant
men with him.
2 Samuel 17:9 Surely by now he is hiding in a cave or so
me other location. If so
me of your troops fall first, whoever hears of it will say, ‘There has been a slaughter among the troops who follow Absalom.’"
2 Samuel 17:8 He continued, “You know your father and his
men. They are mighty
men, and as fierce as a wild bear robbed of her cubs. Moreover, your father is a man of war who will not spend the night with the troops."
2 Samuel 17:7 Hushai replied, “This ti
me the advice of Ahithophel is not sound.”"
2 Samuel 17:6 So Hushai ca
me to Absalom, who told him, “Ahithophel has spoken this proposal. Should we carry it out? If not, what do you say?”"
2 Samuel 17:4 This proposal see
med good to Absalom and all the elders of Israel.
2 Samuel 17:1 Furthermore, Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Let
me choose twelve thousand
men and set out tonight in pursuit of David."
2 Samuel 16:21 Ahithophel replied, “Sleep with your father’s concubines, whom he has left to keep the palace. When all Israel hears that you have beco
me a stench to your father, then the hands of all who are with you will be strengthened.”"
2 Samuel 16:20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give
me counsel. What should we do?”"
2 Samuel 16:18 “Not at all,” Hushai answered. “For the one chosen by the LORD, by the people, and by all the
men of Israel—his I will be, and with him I will remain."
2 Samuel 16:15 Then Absalom and all the
men of Israel ca
me to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel was with him.
2 Samuel 16:13 So David and his
men proceeded along the road as Shi
mei went along the ridge of the hill opposite him. As Shi
mei went, he yelled curses, threw stones, and flung dust at David.
2 Samuel 16:12 Perhaps the LORD will see my affliction and repay
me with good for the cursing I receive today.”"
2 Samuel 16:11 Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my own son, my own flesh and blood, seeks my life. How much more, then, this Benjamite! Leave him alone and let him curse
me, for the LORD has told him so."
2 Samuel 16:10 But the king replied, “What have I to do with you, O sons of Zeruiah? If he curses
me because the LORD told him, ‘Curse David,’ who can ask, ‘Why did you do this?’”"
2 Samuel 16:9 Then Abishai son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Let
me go over and cut off his head!”"
2 Samuel 16:8 The LORD has paid you back for all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned, and the LORD has delivered the kingdom into the hand of your son Absalom. See, you have co
me to ruin because you are a man of bloodshed!”"
2 Samuel 16:7 And as he yelled curses, Shi
mei said, “Get out, get out, you worthless man of bloodshed!"
2 Samuel 16:6 He threw stones at David and at all the servants of the king, though the troops and all the mighty
men were on David’s right and left."
2 Samuel 16:5 As King David approached Bahurim, a man from the family of the house of Saul was just coming out. His na
me was Shi
mei son of Gera, and as he approached, he kept yelling out curses.
2 Samuel 16:4 So the king said to Ziba, “All that belongs to
Mephibosheth is now yours!” “I humbly bow before you,” said Ziba. “May I find favor in your eyes, my lord the king!”"
2 Samuel 16:3 “Where is your master’s grandson?” asked the king. And Ziba answered, “Indeed, he is staying in Jerusalem, for he has said, ‘Today, the house of Israel will restore to
me the kingdom of my grandfather.’”"
2 Samuel 16:2 “Why do you have these?” asked the king. Ziba replied, “The donkeys are for the king’s household to ride, the bread and sum
mer fruit are for the young
men to eat, and the wine is to refresh those who beco
me exhausted in the wilderness.”"
2 Samuel 16:1 When David had gone a little beyond the summit, Ziba the servant of
Mephibosheth was there to
meet him. He had a pair of saddled donkeys loaded with two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred clusters of raisins, a hundred sum
mer fruits, and a skin of wine.
2 Samuel 15:36 Indeed, their two sons, Ahimaaz son of Zadok and Jonathan son of Abiathar, are there with them. Send them to
me with everything you hear.”"
2 Samuel 15:34 But you can thwart the counsel of Ahithophel for
me if you return to the city and say to Absalom: ‘I will be your servant, my king; in the past I was your father’s servant, but now I will be your servant.’"
2 Samuel 15:33 David said to him, “If you go on with
me, you will be a burden to
me."
2 Samuel 15:32 When David ca
me to the summit, where he used to worship God, Hushai the Archite was there to
meet him with his robe torn and dust on his head.
2 Samuel 15:31 Now so
meone told David: “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” So David pleaded, “O LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness!”"
2 Samuel 15:28 See, I will wait at the fords of the wilderness until word co
mes from you to inform
me.”"
2 Samuel 15:26 But if He should say, ‘I do not delight in you,’ then here I am; let Him do to
me whatever seems good to Him.”"
2 Samuel 15:25 Then the king said to Zadok, “Return the ark of God to the city. If I find favor in the eyes of the LORD, He will bring
me back and let
me see both it and His dwelling place again."
2 Samuel 15:22 “March on then,” said David to Ittai. So Ittai the Gittite marched past with all his
men and all the little ones who were with him."
2 Samuel 15:21 But Ittai answered the king, “As surely as the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, wherever my lord the king may be, whether it
means life or death, there will your servant be!”"
2 Samuel 15:19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why should you also go with us? Go back and stay with the new king, since you are both a foreigner and an exile from your ho
meland."
2 Samuel 15:13 Then a
messenger ca
me to David and reported, “The hearts of the
men of Israel are with Absalom.”"
2 Samuel 15:12 While Absalom was offering the sacrifices, he sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counselor, to co
me from his ho
metown of Giloh. So the conspiracy gained strength, and Absalom’s following kept increasing."
2 Samuel 15:11 Two hundred
men from Jerusalem accompanied Absalom. They had been invited as guests and they went along innocently, for they knew nothing about the matter.
2 Samuel 15:10 Then Absalom sent spies throughout the tribes of Israel with this
message: “When you hear the sound of the horn, you are to say, ‘Absalom reigns in Hebron!’”"
2 Samuel 15:8 For your servant made a vow while dwelling in Geshur of Aram, saying: ‘If indeed the LORD brings
me back to Jerusalem, I will worship the LORD in Hebron.’”"
2 Samuel 15:7 After four years had passed, Absalom said to the king, “Please let
me go to Hebron to fulfill a vow I have made to the LORD."
2 Samuel 15:6 Absalom did this to all the Israelites who ca
me to the king for justice. In this way he stole the hearts of the
men of Israel.
2 Samuel 15:4 And he would add, “If only so
meone would appoint
me judge in the land, then everyone with a grievance or dispute could co
me to
me, and I would give him justice.”"
2 Samuel 15:1 So
me ti
me later, Absalom provided for himself a chariot with horses and fifty
men to run ahead of him.
2 Samuel 14:33 So Joab went and told the king, and David summoned Absalom, who ca
me to him and bowed facedown before him. Then the king kissed Absalom.
2 Samuel 14:32 “Look,” said Absalom, “I sent for you and said, ‘Co
me here. I want to send you to the king to ask: Why have I co
me back from Geshur? It would be better for
me if I were still there.’ So now, let
me see the king’s face, and if there is iniquity in
me, let him kill
me.”"
2 Samuel 14:31 Then Joab ca
me to Absalom’s house and demanded, “Why did your servants set my field on fire?”"
2 Samuel 14:29 Then he sent for Joab to send him to the king, but Joab refused to co
me to him. So Absalom sent a second ti
me, but Joab still would not co
me.
2 Samuel 14:27 Three sons were born to Absalom, and a daughter na
med Tamar, who was a beautiful woman.
2 Samuel 14:25 Now there was not a man in all Israel as handso
me and highly praised as Absalom. From the sole of his foot to the top of his head, he did not have a single flaw.
2 Samuel 14:19 So the king asked, “Is the hand of Joab behind all this?” The woman answered, “As surely as you live, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right or to the left from anything that my lord the king says. Yes, your servant Joab is the one who gave
me orders; he told your maidservant exactly what to say."
2 Samuel 14:18 Then the king said to the woman, “I am going to ask you so
mething; do not conceal it from
me!” “Let my lord the king speak,” she replied."
2 Samuel 14:17 And now your servant says, ‘May the word of my lord the king bring
me rest, for my lord the king is able to discern good and evil, just like the angel of God. May the LORD your God be with you.’”"
2 Samuel 14:16 For the king will hear and deliver his maidservant from the hand of the man who would cut off both
me and my son from God’s inheritance.’"
2 Samuel 14:15 Now therefore, I have co
me to present this matter to my lord the king because the people have made
me afraid. Your servant thought, ‘I will speak to the king. Perhaps he will grant the request of his maidservant."
2 Samuel 14:10 “If anyone speaks to you,” said the king, “bring him to
me, and he will not trouble you again!”"
2 Samuel 14:9 But the woman of Tekoa said to the king, “My lord the king, may any bla
me be on
me and on my father’s house, and may the king and his throne be guiltless.”"
2 Samuel 14:8 “Go ho
me,” the king said to the woman, “and I will give orders on your behalf.”"
2 Samuel 14:7 Now the whole clan has risen up against your maidservant and said, ‘Hand over the one who struck down his brother, that we may put him to death for the life of the brother whom he killed. Then we will cut off the heir as well!’ So they would extinguish my one remaining ember by not preserving my husband’s na
me or posterity on the earth.”"
2 Samuel 14:4 When the woman from Tekoa went to the king, she fell facedown in homage and said, “Help
me, O king!”"
2 Samuel 14:2 So Joab sent to Tekoa to bring a wise woman from there. He told her, “Please pretend to be a mourner; put on clothes for mourning and do not anoint yourself with oil. Act like a woman who has mourned for the dead a long ti
me."
2 Samuel 13:36 And as he finished speaking, the sons of the king ca
me in, wailing loudly. Then the king and all his servants also wept very bitterly.
2 Samuel 13:34 Meanwhile, Absalom had fled. When the young man standing watch looked up, he saw many people coming down the road west of him, along the side of the hill. And the watchman went and reported to the king, “I see
men coming from the direction of Horonaim, along the side of the hill.”"
2 Samuel 13:32 But Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shi
meah, spoke up: “My lord must not think they have killed all the sons of the king, for only Amnon is dead. In fact, Absalom has planned this since the day Amnon violated his sister Tamar."
2 Samuel 13:29 So Absalom’s young
men did to Amnon just as Absalom had ordered. Then all the other sons of the king got up, and each one fled on his mule."
2 Samuel 13:28 Now Absalom had ordered his young
men, “Watch Amnon until his heart is
merry with wine, and when I order you to strike Amnon down, you are to kill him. Do not be afraid. Have I not commanded you? Be courageous and valiant!”"
2 Samuel 13:24 And he went to the king and said, “Your servant has just hired shearers. Will the king and his servants please co
me with
me?”"
2 Samuel 13:16 “No,” she replied, “sending
me away is worse than this great wrong you have already done to
me!” But he refused to listen to her."
2 Samuel 13:13 Where could I ever take my sha
me? And you would be like one of the fools in Israel! Please speak to the king, for he will not withhold
me from you.”"
2 Samuel 13:12 “No, my brother!” she cried. “Do not humiliate
me, for such a thing should never be done in Israel. Do not do this disgraceful thing!"
2 Samuel 13:11 And when she had brought them to him to eat, he took hold of her and said, “Co
me lie with
me, my sister!”"
2 Samuel 13:8 So Tamar went to the house of her brother Amnon, who was lying down. She took so
me dough, kneaded it, made cakes in his sight, and baked them.
2 Samuel 13:7 Then David sent word to Tamar at the palace: “Please go to the house of Amnon your brother and prepare a
meal for him.”"
2 Samuel 13:6 So Amnon lay down and feigned illness. When the king ca
me to see him, Amnon said, “Please let my sister Tamar co
me and make a couple of cakes in my sight, so that I may eat from her hand.”"
2 Samuel 13:5 Jonadab told him, “Lie down on your bed and pretend you are ill. When your father co
mes to see you, say to him, ‘Please let my sister Tamar co
me and give
me so
mething to eat. Let her prepare it in my sight so I may watch her and eat it from her hand.’”"
2 Samuel 13:4 so he asked Amnon, “Why are you, the son of the king, so depressed morning after morning? Won’t you tell
me?” Amnon replied, “I am in love with Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister.”"
2 Samuel 13:3 Now Amnon had a friend na
med Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shi
meah. Jonadab was a very shrewd man,"
2 Samuel 13:2 Amnon was sick with frustration over his sister Tamar, for she was a virgin, and it see
med implausible for him to do anything to her.
2 Samuel 13:1 After so
me ti
me, David’s son Amnon fell in love with Tamar, the beautiful sister of David’s son Absalom."
2 Samuel 12:31 David brought out the people who were there and put them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes, and he made them work at the brick kilns. He did the sa
me to all the Ammonite cities. Then David and all his troops returned to Jerusalem.
2 Samuel 12:28 Now, therefore, assemble the rest of the troops, lay siege to the city, and capture it. Otherwise I will capture the city, and it will be na
med after
me.”"
2 Samuel 12:27 Then Joab sent
messengers to David to say, “I have fought against Rabbah and have captured the water supply of the city."
2 Samuel 12:26 Meanwhile, Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and captured the royal fortress.
2 Samuel 12:25 and sent word through Nathan the prophet to na
me him Jedidiah because the LORD loved him.
2 Samuel 12:24 Then David comforted his wife Bathsheba, and he went to her and lay with her. So she gave birth to a son, and they na
med him Solomon. Now the LORD loved the child
2 Samuel 12:23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to
me.”"
2 Samuel 12:22 David answered, “While the child was alive, I fasted and wept, for I said, ‘Who knows? The LORD may be gracious to
me and let him live.’"
2 Samuel 12:15 After Nathan had gone ho
me, the LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife had borne to David, and he beca
me ill."
2 Samuel 12:10 Now, therefore, the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised
Me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own.’"
2 Samuel 12:6 Because he has done this thing and has shown no pity, he must pay for the lamb four ti
mes over.”"
2 Samuel 12:4 Now a traveler ca
me to the rich man, who refrained from taking one of his own sheep or cattle to prepare for the traveler who had co
me to him. Instead, he took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for his guest.”"
2 Samuel 12:1 Then the LORD sent Nathan to David, and when he arrived, he said, “There were two
men in a certain city, one rich and the other poor."
2 Samuel 11:27 And when the ti
me of mourning was over, David had her brought to his house, and she beca
me his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of the LORD.
2 Samuel 11:25 Then David told the
messenger, “Say this to Joab: ‘Do not let this matter upset you, for the sword devours one as well as another. Strengthen your attack against the city and demolish it.’ Encourage him with these words.”"
2 Samuel 11:24 Then the archers shot at your servants from the wall, and so
me of the king’s servants were killed. And your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.”"
2 Samuel 11:23 The
messenger said to David, “The
men overpowered us and ca
me out against us in the field, but we drove them back to the entrance of the gate."
2 Samuel 11:22 So the
messenger set out and reported to David all that Joab had sent him to say.
2 Samuel 11:21 Who was the one to strike Abi
melech son of Jerubbesheth? Was it not a woman who dropped an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died in Thebez? Why did you get so close to the wall?’ If so, then you are to say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.’”"
2 Samuel 11:19 and instructed the
messenger, “When you have finished giving the king all the details of the battle,"
2 Samuel 11:17 And when the
men of the city ca
me out and fought against Joab, so
me of David’s servants fell, and Uriah the Hittite also died."
2 Samuel 11:13 Then David invited Uriah to eat and drink with him, and he got Uriah drunk. And in the evening Uriah went out to lie down on his cot with his master’s servants, but he did not go ho
me."
2 Samuel 11:10 And David was told, “Uriah did not go ho
me.” “Haven’t you just arrived from a journey?” David asked Uriah. “Why didn’t you go ho
me?”"
2 Samuel 11:7 When Uriah ca
me to him, David asked how Joab and the troops were doing with the war.
2 Samuel 11:6 At this, David sent orders to Joab: “Send
me Uriah the Hittite.” So Joab sent him to David."
2 Samuel 11:4 Then David sent
messengers to get her, and when she ca
me to him, he slept with her. (Now she had just purified herself from her uncleanness.) Then she returned ho
me.
2 Samuel 11:1 In the spring, at the ti
me when kings march out to war, David sent out Joab and his servants with the whole army of Israel. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah, but David remained in Jerusalem.
2 Samuel 10:19 When all the kings who were subject to Hadadezer saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel and beca
me subject to them. So the Ara
means were afraid to help the Ammonites anymore.
2 Samuel 10:18 But the Ara
means fled before Israel, and David killed seven hundred charioteers and forty thousand foot soldiers. He also struck down Shobach the commander of their army, who died there.
2 Samuel 10:17 When this was reported to David, he gathered all Israel, crossed the Jordan, and went to Helam. Then the Ara
means arrayed themselves against David and fought against him.
2 Samuel 10:16 Hadadezer sent
messengers to bring more Ara
means from beyond the Euphrates, and they ca
me to Helam with Shobach the commander of Hadadezer’s army leading them."
2 Samuel 10:15 When the Ara
means saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they regrouped.
2 Samuel 10:14 When the Ammonites saw that the Ara
means had fled, they too fled before Abishai, and they entered the city. So Joab returned from fighting against the Ammonites and ca
me to Jerusalem.
2 Samuel 10:13 So Joab and his troops advanced to fight the Ara
means, who fled before him.
2 Samuel 10:11 “If the Ara
means are too strong for
me,” said Joab, “then you will co
me to my rescue. And if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will co
me to your rescue."
2 Samuel 10:9 When Joab saw the battle lines before him and behind him, he selected so
me of the best
men of Israel and arrayed them against the Ara
means.
2 Samuel 10:8 The Ammonites marched out and arrayed themselves for battle at the entrance of the city gate, while the Ara
means of Zobah and Rehob and the
men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the open country.
2 Samuel 10:7 On hearing this, David sent Joab and the entire army of mighty
men.
2 Samuel 10:6 When the Ammonites realized that they had beco
me a stench to David, they hired twenty thousand Ara
mean foot soldiers from Beth-rehob and Zoba, as well as a thousand
men from the king of Maacah and twelve thousand
men from Tob.
2 Samuel 10:5 When this was reported to David, he sent
messengers to
meet the
men, since they had been thoroughly humiliated. The king told them, “Stay in Jericho until your beards have grown back, and then return.”"
2 Samuel 10:4 So Hanun took David’s servants, shaved off half of each man’s beard, cut off their gar
ments at the hips, and sent them away."
2 Samuel 10:2 And David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, just as his father showed kindness to
me.” So David sent so
me of his servants to console Hanun concerning his father. But when they arrived in the land of the Ammonites,"
2 Samuel 10:1 So
me ti
me later, the king of the Ammonites died and was succeeded by his son Hanun.
2 Samuel 9:13 So
Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, because he always ate at the king’s table, and he was la
me in both feet."
2 Samuel 9:12 And
Mephibosheth had a young son na
med Mica, and all who dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants of
Mephibosheth.
2 Samuel 9:11 And Ziba said to the king, “Your servant will do all that my lord the king has commanded.” So
Mephibosheth ate at David’s table like one of the king’s own sons."
2 Samuel 9:10 You and your sons and servants are to work the ground for him and bring in the harvest, so that your master’s grandson may have food to eat. But
Mephibosheth, your master’s grandson, is always to eat at my table.” Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants."
2 Samuel 9:8 Mephibosheth bowed down and said, “What is your servant, that you should show regard for a dead dog like
me?”"
2 Samuel 9:6 And when
Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, ca
me to David, he fell facedown in reverence. Then David said, “
Mephibosheth!” “I am your servant,” he replied."
2 Samuel 9:3 So the king asked, “Is there anyone left of Saul’s family to whom I can show the kindness of God?” Ziba answered, “There is still Jonathan’s son, who is la
me in both feet.”"
2 Samuel 9:2 And there was a servant of Saul’s family na
med Ziba. They summoned him to David, and the king inquired, “Are you Ziba?” “I am your servant,” he replied."
2 Samuel 8:17 Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahi
melech son of Abiathar were priests; Seraiah was the scribe;
2 Samuel 8:13 And David made a na
me for himself when he returned from striking down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
2 Samuel 8:6 Then he placed garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Ara
means beca
me subject to David and brought him tribute. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
2 Samuel 8:5 When the Ara
means of Damascus ca
me to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand
men.
2 Samuel 8:2 David also defeated the Moabites, made them lie down on the ground, and
measured them off with a cord. He
measured off with two lengths those to be put to death, and with one length those to be spared. So the Moabites beca
me subject to David and brought him tribute.
2 Samuel 8:1 So
me ti
me later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took
Metheg-ammah from the hand of the Philistines.
2 Samuel 7:26 so that Your na
me will be magnified forever when it is said, ‘The LORD of Hosts is God over Israel.’ And the house of Your servant David will be established before You."
2 Samuel 7:24 For You have established Your people Israel as Your very own forever, and You, O LORD, have beco
me their God.
2 Samuel 7:23 And who is like Your people Israel—the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem as a people for Himself and to make a na
me for Himself? You perfor
med great and aweso
me wonders by driving out nations and their gods from before Your people, whom You redee
med for Yourself from Egypt."
2 Samuel 7:18 Then King David went in, sat before the LORD, and said, “Who am I, O Lord GOD, and what is my house, that You have brought
me this far?"
2 Samuel 7:16 Your house and kingdom will endure forever before
Me, and your throne will be established forever.”"
2 Samuel 7:14 I will be his Father, and he will be My son. When he does wrong, I will discipline him with the rod of
men and with the blows of the sons of
men.
2 Samuel 7:13 He will build a house for My Na
me, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.
2 Samuel 7:12 And when your days are fulfilled and you rest with your fathers, I will raise up your descendant after you, who will co
me from your own body, and I will establish his kingdom.
2 Samuel 7:9 I have been with you wherever you have gone, and I have cut off all your enemies from before you. Now I will make for you a na
me like the greatest in the land.
2 Samuel 7:7 In all My journeys with all the Israelites, have I ever asked any of the leaders I appointed to shepherd My people Israel, ‘Why haven’t you built
Me a house of cedar?’"
2 Samuel 7:5 “Go and tell My servant David that this is what the LORD says: Are you the one to build for
Me a house to dwell in?"
2 Samuel 7:4 But that night the word of the LORD ca
me to Nathan, saying,
2 Samuel 6:21 But David said to Michal, “I was dancing before the LORD, who chose
me over your father and all his house when He appointed
me ruler over the LORD’s people Israel. I will celebrate before the LORD,"
2 Samuel 6:20 As soon as David returned ho
me to bless his own household, Saul’s daughter Michal ca
me out to
meet him. “How the king of Israel has distinguished himself today!” she said. “He has uncovered himself today in the sight of the maidservants of his subjects, like a vulgar person would do.”"
2 Samuel 6:19 Then he distributed to every man and woman among the multitude of Israel a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. And all the people departed, each for his own ho
me.
2 Samuel 6:18 When David had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the na
me of the LORD of Hosts.
2 Samuel 6:9 That day David feared the LORD and asked, “How can the ark of the LORD ever co
me to
me?”"
2 Samuel 6:8 Then David beca
me angry because the LORD had burst forth against Uzzah; so he na
med that place Perez-uzzah, as it is called to this day.
2 Samuel 6:6 When they ca
me to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark of God, because the oxen had stumbled.
2 Samuel 6:5 David and all the house of Israel were celebrating before the LORD with all kinds of wood instru
ments, harps, stringed instru
ments, tambourines, sistrums, and cymbals.
2 Samuel 6:2 And he and all his troops set out for Baale of Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the Na
me—the na
me of the LORD of Hosts, who is enthroned between the cherubim that are on it."
2 Samuel 6:1 David again assembled the chosen
men of Israel, thirty thousand in all.
2 Samuel 5:24 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move quickly, because this will
mean that the LORD has marched out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”"
2 Samuel 5:22 Once again the Philistines ca
me up and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.
2 Samuel 5:21 There the Philistines abandoned their idols, and David and his
men carried them away.
2 Samuel 5:20 So David went to Baal-perazim, where he defeated the Philistines and said, “Like a bursting flood, the LORD has burst out against my enemies before
me.” So he called that place Baal-perazim."
2 Samuel 5:18 Now the Philistines had co
me and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.
2 Samuel 5:14 These are the na
mes of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
2 Samuel 5:10 And David beca
me greater and greater, for the LORD God of Hosts was with him.
2 Samuel 5:8 On that day he said, “Whoever attacks the Jebusites must use the water shaft to reach the la
me and blind who are despised by David.” That is why it is said, “The blind and the la
me will never enter the palace.”"
2 Samuel 5:6 Now the king and his
men marched to Jerusalem against the Jebusites who inhabited the land. The Jebusites said to David: “You will never get in here. Even the blind and la
me can repel you.” For they thought, “David cannot get in here.”"
2 Samuel 5:4 David was thirty years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned forty years.
2 Samuel 5:3 So all the elders of Israel ca
me to the king at Hebron, where King David made with them a covenant before the LORD. And they anointed him king over Israel.
2 Samuel 5:2 Even in ti
mes past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And to you the LORD said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”"
2 Samuel 5:1 Then all the tribes of Israel ca
me to David at Hebron and said, “Here we are, your own flesh and blood."
2 Samuel 4:12 So David commanded his young
men, and they killed Rechab and Baanah. They cut off their hands and feet and hung their bodies by the pool in Hebron, but they took the head of Ish-bosheth and buried it in Abner’s tomb in Hebron."
2 Samuel 4:11 How much more, when wicked
men kill a righteous man in his own house and on his own bed, shall I not now require his blood from your hands and remove you from the earth!”"
2 Samuel 4:10 when so
meone told
me, ‘Look, Saul is dead,’ and thought he was a bearer of good news, I seized him and put him to death at Ziklag. That was his reward for his news!"
2 Samuel 4:9 But David answered Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, “As surely as the LORD lives, who has redee
med my life from all distress,"
2 Samuel 4:6 They entered the interior of the house as if to get so
me wheat, and they stabbed him in the stomach. Then Rechab and his brother Baanah slipped away.
2 Samuel 4:4 And Jonathan son of Saul had a son who was la
me in his feet. He was five years old when the report about Saul and Jonathan ca
me from Jezreel. His nurse picked him up and fled, but as she was hurrying to escape, he fell and beca
me la
me. His na
me was
Mephibosheth.
2 Samuel 4:2 Saul’s son had two
men who were leaders of raiding parties. One was na
med Baanah and the other Rechab; they were sons of Rimmon the Beerothite of the tribe of Benjamin—Beeroth is considered part of Benjamin,"
2 Samuel 3:39 And I am weak this day, though anointed as king, and these
men, the sons of Zeruiah, are too fierce for
me. May the LORD repay the evildoer according to his evil!”"
2 Samuel 3:35 Then all the people ca
me and urged David to eat so
mething while it was still day, but David took an oath, saying, “May God punish
me, and ever so severely, if I taste bread or anything else before the sun sets!”"
2 Samuel 3:33 And the king sang this la
ment for Abner: “Should Abner die the death of a fool?"
2 Samuel 3:26 As soon as Joab had left David, he sent
messengers after Abner, who brought him back from the well of Sirah; but David was unaware of it.
2 Samuel 3:25 Surely you realize that Abner son of Ner ca
me to deceive you and to track your move
ments and all that you are doing.”"
2 Samuel 3:24 So Joab went to the king and said, “What have you done? Look, Abner ca
me to you. Why did you dismiss him? Now he is getting away!"
2 Samuel 3:23 When Joab and all his troops arrived, he was infor
med, “Abner son of Ner ca
me to see the king, who sent him on his way in peace.”"
2 Samuel 3:21 Then Abner said to David, “Let
me go at once, and I will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may rule over all that your heart desires.” So David dismissed Abner, and he went in peace."
2 Samuel 3:20 When Abner and twenty of his
men ca
me to David at Hebron, David held a feast for them.
2 Samuel 3:19 Abner also spoke to the Benjamites and went to Hebron to tell David all that see
med good to Israel and to the whole house of Benjamin.
2 Samuel 3:16 Her husband followed her, weeping all the way to Bahurim. Then Abner said to him, “Go back.” So he returned ho
me."
2 Samuel 3:14 Then David sent
messengers to say to Ish-bosheth son of Saul, “Give
me back my wife, Michal, whom I betrothed to myself for a hundred Philistine foreskins.”"
2 Samuel 3:13 “Good,” replied David, “I will make a covenant with you. But there is one thing I require of you: Do not appear before
me unless you bring Saul’s daughter Michal when you co
me to see
me.”"
2 Samuel 3:12 Then Abner sent
messengers in his place to say to David, “To whom does the land belong? Make your covenant with
me, and surely my hand will be with you to bring all Israel over to you.”"
2 Samuel 3:8 Abner was furious over Ish-bosheth’s accusation. “Am I the head of a dog that belongs to Judah?” he asked. “All this ti
me I have been loyal to the house of your father Saul, to his brothers, and to his friends. I have not delivered you into the hand of David, but now you accuse
me of wrongdoing with this woman!"
2 Samuel 3:7 Meanwhile, Saul had a concubine na
med Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. So Ish-bosheth questioned Abner, “Why did you sleep with my father’s concubine?”"
2 Samuel 3:3 his second was Chileab, by Abigail the widow of Nabal of Car
mel; his third was Absalom, the son of Maacah daughter of King Talmai of Geshur;
2 Samuel 2:32 Later, they took Asahel and buried him in his father’s tomb in Bethlehem. Then Joab and his
men marched all night and reached Hebron at daybreak."
2 Samuel 2:29 And all that night Abner and his
men marched through the Arabah. They crossed the Jordan, marched all morning, and arrived at Mahanaim.
2 Samuel 2:25 The Benjamites rallied to Abner, for
med a single unit, and took their stand atop a hill.
2 Samuel 2:23 But Asahel refused to turn away; so Abner thrust the butt of his spear into his stomach, and it ca
me out his back, and he fell dead on the spot. And every man paused when he ca
me to the place where Asahel had fallen and died.
2 Samuel 2:22 Once again, Abner warned Asahel, “Stop chasing
me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How could I show my face to your brother Joab?”"
2 Samuel 2:21 So Abner told him, “Turn to your right or to your left, seize one of the young
men, and take his equip
ment for yourself.” But Asahel would not stop chasing him."
2 Samuel 2:17 The battle that day was intense, and Abner and the
men of Israel were defeated by the servants of David.
2 Samuel 2:14 Then Abner said to Joab, “Let us have the young
men get up and compete before us.” “Let them get up,” Joab replied."
2 Samuel 2:13 So Joab son of Zeruiah, along with the servants of David, marched out and
met them by the pool of Gibeon. And the two camps took up positions on opposite sides of the pool.
2 Samuel 2:11 And the length of ti
me that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
2 Samuel 2:8 Meanwhile, Abner son of Ner, the commander of Saul’s army, took Saul’s son Ish-bosheth, moved him to Mahanaim,"
2 Samuel 2:7 Now then, be strong and courageous, for though Saul your lord is dead, the house of Judah has anointed
me as their king.”"
2 Samuel 2:6 Now may the LORD show you loving devotion and faithfulness, and I will also show you the sa
me favor because you have done this.
2 Samuel 2:5 So David sent
messengers to the
men of Jabesh-gilead to tell them, “The LORD bless you, because you showed this kindness to Saul your lord when you buried him."
2 Samuel 2:4 Then the
men of Judah ca
me to Hebron, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, “It was the
men of Jabesh-gilead who buried Saul.”"
2 Samuel 2:3 David also took the
men who were with him, each with his household, and they settled in the towns near Hebron.
2 Samuel 2:2 So David went there with his two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail the widow of Nabal of Car
mel.
2 Samuel 2:1 So
me ti
me later, David inquired of the LORD, “Should I go up to one of the towns of Judah?” “Go up,” the LORD answered. Then David asked, “Where should I go?” “To Hebron,” replied the LORD."
2 Samuel 1:26 I grieve for you, Jonathan, my brother. You were delightful to
me; your love to
me was extraordinary, surpassing the love of wo
men.
2 Samuel 1:24 O daughters of Israel, weep for Saul, who clothed you in scarlet and luxury, who decked your gar
ments with orna
ments of gold.
2 Samuel 1:17 Then David took up this la
ment for Saul and his son Jonathan,
2 Samuel 1:15 Then David summoned one of the young
men and said, “Go, execute him!” So the young man struck him down, and he died."
2 Samuel 1:11 Then David took hold of his own clothes and tore them, and all the
men who were with him did the sa
me.
2 Samuel 1:9 Then he begged
me, ‘Stand over
me and kill
me, for agony has seized
me, but my life still lingers.’"
2 Samuel 1:7 When he turned around and saw
me, he called out and I answered, ‘Here I am!’"
2 Samuel 1:4 “What was the outco
me?” David asked. “Please tell
me.” “The troops fled from the battle,” he replied. “Many of them fell and died. And Saul and his son Jonathan are also dead.”"
2 Samuel 1:3 “Where have you co
me from?” David asked. “I have escaped from the Israelite camp,” he replied."
2 Samuel 1:2 On the third day a man with torn clothes and dust on his head arrived from Saul’s camp. When he ca
me to David, he fell to the ground to pay him homage."
1 Samuel 31:12 all their
men of valor set out, journeyed all night, and retrieved the bodies of Saul and his sons from the wall of Beth-shan. When they arrived at Jabesh, they burned the bodies there.
1 Samuel 31:9 They cut off Saul’s head, stripped off his armor, and sent
messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to proclaim the news in the temples of their idols and among their people."
1 Samuel 31:8 The next day, when the Philistines ca
me to strip the dead, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
1 Samuel 31:7 When the Israelites along the valley and those on the other side of the Jordan saw that the army of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their cities and ran away. So the Philistines ca
me and occupied their cities.
1 Samuel 31:6 So Saul, his three sons, his armor-bearer, and all his
men died together that sa
me day.
1 Samuel 31:4 Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and run it through
me, or these uncircumcised
men will co
me and run
me through and torture
me!” But his armor-bearer was terrified and refused to do it. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it."
1 Samuel 31:1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the
men of Israel fled before them, and many fell slain on Mount Gilboa.
1 Samuel 30:31 and to those in Hebron and in all the places where David and his
men had roa
med.
1 Samuel 30:29 to those in Racal and in the cities of the Jerah
meelites and Kenites;
1 Samuel 30:26 When David arrived in Ziklag, he sent so
me of the plunder to his friends, the elders of Judah, saying, “Here is a gift for you from the plunder of the LORD’s enemies.”"
1 Samuel 30:23 But David said, “My brothers, you must not do this with what the LORD has given us. He has protected us and delivered into our hands the raiders who ca
me against us."
1 Samuel 30:22 but all the wicked and worthless
men among those who had gone with David said, “Because they did not go with us, we will not share with them the plunder we recovered, except for each man’s wife and children. They may take them and go.”"
1 Samuel 30:21 When David ca
me to the two hundred
men who had been too exhausted to follow him from the Brook of Besor, they ca
me out to
meet him and the troops with him. As David approached the
men, he greeted them,
1 Samuel 30:20 And he recovered all the flocks and herds, which his
men drove ahead of the other livestock, calling out, “This is David’s plunder!”"
1 Samuel 30:17 And David struck them down from twilight until the evening of the next day. Not a man escaped, except four hundred young
men who fled, riding off on ca
mels.
1 Samuel 30:15 “Will you lead
me to these raiders?” David asked. And the man replied, “Swear to
me by God that you will not kill
me or deliver
me into the hand of my master, and I will lead you to them.”"
1 Samuel 30:13 Then David asked him, “To whom do you belong, and where are you from?” “I am an Egyptian,” he replied, “the slave of an Amalekite. My master abandoned
me three days ago when I fell ill."
1 Samuel 30:11 Now his
men found an Egyptian in the field and brought him to David. They gave the man water to drink and food to eat—"
1 Samuel 30:10 because two hundred
men were too exhausted to cross the brook. But David and four hundred
men continued in pursuit.
1 Samuel 30:9 So David and his six hundred
men went to the Brook of Besor, where so
me stayed behind
1 Samuel 30:7 Then David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahi
melech, “Bring
me the ephod.” So Abiathar brought it to him,"
1 Samuel 30:5 David’s two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail the widow of Nabal of Car
mel, had been taken captive."
1 Samuel 30:3 When David and his
men ca
me to the city, they found it burned down and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive.
1 Samuel 30:2 They had taken captive the wo
men and all who were there, both young and old. They had not killed anyone, but had carried them off as they went on their way.
1 Samuel 30:1 On the third day David and his
men arrived in Ziklag, and the Amalekites had raided the Negev, attacked Ziklag, and burned it down.
1 Samuel 29:11 So David and his
men got up early in the morning to return to the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
1 Samuel 29:10 Now then, get up early in the morning, along with your master’s servants who ca
me with you, and go as soon as it is light.”"
1 Samuel 29:8 “But what have I done?” David replied. “What have you found against your servant, from the day I ca
me to you until today, to keep
me from going along to fight against the enemies of my lord the king?”"
1 Samuel 29:6 So Achish summoned David and told him, “As surely as the LORD lives, you have been upright in my sight, and it seems right that you should march in and out with
me in the army, because I have found no fault in you from the day you ca
me to
me until this day. But you have no favor in the sight of the leaders."
1 Samuel 29:4 But the commanders of the Philistines were angry with Achish and told him, “Send that man back and let him return to the place you assigned him. He must not go down with us into battle only to beco
me our adversary during the war. What better way for him to regain the favor of his master than with the heads of our
men?"
1 Samuel 29:3 Then the commanders of the Philistines asked, “What about these Hebrews?” Achish replied, “Is this not David, the servant of King Saul of Israel? He has been with
me all these days, even years, and from the day he defected until today I have found no fault in him.”"
1 Samuel 29:2 As the Philistine leaders marched out their units of hundreds and thousands, David and his
men marched behind them with Achish.
1 Samuel 28:22 Now please listen to your servant and let
me set a morsel of bread before you so you may eat and have the strength to go on your way.”"
1 Samuel 28:21 When the woman ca
me to Saul and saw how distraught he was, she said to him, “Look, your maidservant has obeyed your voice. I took my life in my hands and did as you told
me."
1 Samuel 28:20 Im
mediately Saul fell flat on the ground, terrified by the words of Samuel. And his strength was gone, because he had not eaten anything all that day and night.
1 Samuel 28:19 Moreover, the LORD will deliver Israel with you into the hand of the Philistines, and tomorrow you and your sons will be with
me. And the LORD will deliver the army of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.”"
1 Samuel 28:17 He has done exactly what He spoke through
me: The LORD has torn the kingship out of your hand and given it to your neighbor David.
1 Samuel 28:16 “Why do you consult
me,” asked Samuel, “since the LORD has turned away from you and beco
me your enemy?"
1 Samuel 28:15 Then Samuel said to Saul, “Why have you disturbed
me by bringing
me up?” “I am deeply distressed,” replied Saul. “The Philistines are fighting against
me, and God has turned away from
me. He no longer answers
me, either by prophets or by dreams. So I have called on you to tell
me what to do.”"
1 Samuel 28:12 But when the woman saw Samuel, she cried out in a loud voice and said to Saul, “Why have you deceived
me? You are Saul!”"
1 Samuel 28:10 Then Saul swore to her by the LORD: “As surely as the LORD lives, no punish
ment shall co
me upon you for this.”"
1 Samuel 28:9 But the woman replied, “Surely you know what Saul has done, how he has killed the
mediums and spiritists in the land. Why have you set a trap to get
me killed?”"
1 Samuel 28:8 So Saul disguised himself by putting on different clothes, and he set out with two of his
men. They ca
me to the woman at night, and Saul said, “Consult a spirit for
me. Bring up for
me the one I na
me.”"
1 Samuel 28:7 Then Saul said to his servants, “Find
me a woman who is a
medium, so I can go and consult her.” “There is a
medium at Endor,” his servants replied."
1 Samuel 28:4 The Philistines ca
me together and camped at Shunem, while Saul gathered all Israel and camped at Gilboa.
1 Samuel 28:3 Now by this ti
me Samuel had died, and all Israel had mourned for him and buried him in Ramah, his own city. And Saul had removed the
mediums and spiritists from the land.
1 Samuel 28:2 David replied, “Then you will co
me to know what your servant can do.” “Very well,” said Achish. “I will make you my bodyguard for life.”"
1 Samuel 28:1 Now in those days the Philistines gathered their forces for warfare against Israel. So Achish said to David, “You must understand that you and your
men are to go out to battle with
me.”"
1 Samuel 27:11 David did not leave a man or woman alive to be brought to Gath, for he said, “Otherwise they will report us, saying, ‘This is what David did.’” And this was David’s custom the whole ti
me he lived in Philistine territory."
1 Samuel 27:10 who would ask him, “What have you raided today?” And David would reply, “The Negev of Judah,” or “The Negev of Jerah
meel,” or “The Negev of the Kenites.”"
1 Samuel 27:9 Whenever David attacked a territory, he did not leave a man or woman alive, but he took the flocks and herds, the donkeys, ca
mels, and clothing. Then he would return to Achish,
1 Samuel 27:8 Now David and his
men went up and raided the Geshurites, the Girzites, and the Amalekites. (From ancient ti
mes these people had inhabited the land extending to Shur and Egypt.)
1 Samuel 27:7 And the ti
me that David lived in Philistine territory amounted to a year and four months.
1 Samuel 27:5 Then David said to Achish, “If I have found favor in your eyes, let
me be assigned a place in one of the outlying towns, so I can live there. For why should your servant live in the royal city with you?”"
1 Samuel 27:3 David and his
men settled in Gath with Achish. Each man had his family with him, and David had his two wives: Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail of Car
mel, the widow of Nabal.
1 Samuel 27:2 So David set out with his six hundred
men and went to Achish son of Maoch, the king of Gath.
1 Samuel 27:1 David, however, said to himself, “One of these days now I will be swept away by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for
me than to escape to the land of the Philistines. Then Saul will stop searching for
me all over Israel, and I will slip out of his hand.”"
1 Samuel 26:25 Saul said to him, “May you be blessed, David my son. You will accomplish great things and will surely prevail.” So David went on his way, and Saul returned ho
me."
1 Samuel 26:24 As surely as I valued your life today, so may the LORD value my life and rescue
me from all trouble.”"
1 Samuel 26:22 “Here is the king’s spear,” David answered. “Let one of the young
men co
me over and get it."
1 Samuel 26:21 Then Saul replied, “I have sinned. Co
me back, David my son. I will never harm you again, because today you considered my life precious. I have played the fool and have committed a grave error!”"
1 Samuel 26:20 So do not let my blood fall to the ground far from the presence of the LORD. For the king of Israel has co
me out to look for a flea, like one who hunts a partridge in the mountains.”"
1 Samuel 26:19 Now please, may my lord the king hear the words of his servant: If the LORD has stirred you up against
me, then may He accept an offering. But if
men have done it, may they be cursed in the presence of the LORD! For today they have driven
me away from sharing in the inheritance of the LORD, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods.’"
1 Samuel 26:15 So David said to Abner, “You are a man, aren’t you? And who in Israel is your equal? Why then did you not protect your lord the king when one of the people ca
me to destroy him?"
1 Samuel 26:14 And David shouted to the troops and to Abner son of Ner, “Will you not answer
me, Abner?” “Who calls to the king?” Abner replied."
1 Samuel 26:10 David added, “As surely as the LORD lives, the LORD Himself will strike him down; either his day will co
me and he will die, or he will go into battle and perish."
1 Samuel 26:8 Abishai said to David, “Today God has delivered your enemy into your hand. Now, therefore, please let
me thrust the spear through him into the ground with one stroke. I will not need to strike him twice!”"
1 Samuel 26:7 That night David and Abishai ca
me to the troops, and Saul was lying there asleep in the inner circle of the camp, with his spear stuck in the ground by his head. And Abner and the troops were lying around him.
1 Samuel 26:6 And David asked Ahi
melech the Hittite and Abishai son of Zeruiah, Joab’s brother, “Who will go down with
me to Saul in the camp?” “I will go with you,” answered Abishai."
1 Samuel 26:2 So Saul, accompanied by three thousand chosen
men of Israel, went down to the Wilderness of Ziph to search for David there.
1 Samuel 26:1 Then the Ziphites ca
me to Saul at Gibeah and said, “Is not David hiding on the hill of Hachilah, opposite Jeshimon?”"
1 Samuel 25:42 So Abigail hurried and got on a donkey, and attended by five of her maidens, she followed David’s
messengers and beca
me his wife."
1 Samuel 25:40 When his servants ca
me to Abigail at Car
mel, they said, “David has sent us to take you as his wife.”"
1 Samuel 25:37 In the morning when Nabal was sober, his wife told him about these events, and his heart failed within him and he beca
me like a stone.
1 Samuel 25:35 Then David accepted from her hand what she had brought him, and he said to her, “Go ho
me in peace. See, I have heeded your voice and granted your request.”"
1 Samuel 25:34 Otherwise, as surely as the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, who has restrained
me from harming you, if you had not co
me quickly to
meet
me, then surely no male belonging to Nabal would have been left alive by morning light.”"
1 Samuel 25:33 Blessed is your discern
ment, and blessed are you, because today you kept
me from bloodshed and from avenging myself by my own hand.
1 Samuel 25:32 Then David said to Abigail, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent you to
meet
me this day!"
1 Samuel 25:31 then my lord will have no remorse or guilt of conscience over needless bloodshed and revenge. And when the LORD has dealt well with my lord, may you re
member your maidservant.”"
1 Samuel 25:29 And should so
meone pursue you and seek your life, then the life of my lord will be bound securely by the LORD your God in the bundle of the living. But He shall fling away the lives of your enemies like stones from a sling.
1 Samuel 25:27 Now let this gift your servant has brought to my lord be given to the young
men who follow you.
1 Samuel 25:25 My lord should pay no attention to this scoundrel Nabal, for he lives up to his na
me: His na
me means Fool, and folly accompanies him. I, your servant, did not see my lord’s young
men whom you sent."
1 Samuel 25:24 She fell at his feet and said, “My lord, may the bla
me be on
me alone, but please let your servant speak to you; hear the words of your servant."
1 Samuel 25:22 May God punish David, and ever so severely, if I let one of Nabal’s
men survive until morning.”"
1 Samuel 25:21 Now David had just finished saying, “In vain I have protected all that belonged to this man in the wilderness. Nothing that belongs to him has gone missing, yet he has paid
me back evil for good."
1 Samuel 25:20 As Abigail ca
me riding her donkey into a mountain ravine, she saw David and his
men coming down toward her, and she
met them.
1 Samuel 25:19 and said to her young
men, “Go ahead of
me. I will be right behind you.” But she did not tell her husband Nabal."
1 Samuel 25:16 They were a wall around us, both day and night, the whole ti
me we were herding our sheep near them.
1 Samuel 25:15 Yet these
men were very good to us. When we were in the field, we were not harassed, and nothing of ours went missing the whole ti
me we lived among them.
1 Samuel 25:14 Meanwhile, one of Nabal’s young
men infor
med Nabal’s wife Abigail, “Look, David sent
messengers from the wilderness to greet our master, but he scolded them."
1 Samuel 25:13 And David said to his
men, “Strap on your swords!” So David and all his
men put on their swords, and about four hundred
men followed David, while two hundred stayed with the supplies."
1 Samuel 25:12 So David’s
men turned around and went back, and they relayed to him all these words."
1 Samuel 25:11 Why should I take my bread and water and the
meat I have slaughtered for my shearers, and give them to these
men whose origin I do not know?”"
1 Samuel 25:9 When David’s young
men arrived, they relayed all these words to Nabal on behalf of David. Then they waited."
1 Samuel 25:8 Ask your young
men, and they will tell you. So let my young
men find favor with you, for we have co
me on the day of a feast. Please give whatever you can afford to your servants and to your son David.’”"
1 Samuel 25:7 Now I hear that it is ti
me for shearing. When your shepherds were with us, we did not harass them, and nothing of theirs was missing the whole ti
me they were in Car
mel.
1 Samuel 25:5 So David sent ten young
men and instructed them, “Go up to Nabal at Car
mel. Greet him in my na
me"
1 Samuel 25:3 His na
me was Nabal, and his wife’s na
me was Abigail. She was an intelligent and beautiful woman, but her husband, a Calebite, was harsh and evil in his dealings."
1 Samuel 25:2 Now there was a man in Maon whose business was in Car
mel. He was a very wealthy man with a thousand goats and three thousand sheep, which he was shearing in Car
mel.
1 Samuel 25:1 When Samuel died, all Israel gathered to mourn for him; and they buried him at his ho
me in Ramah. Then David set out and went down to the Wilderness of Paran.
1 Samuel 24:22 So David gave his oath to Saul. Then Saul returned ho
me, but David and his
men went up to the stronghold.
1 Samuel 24:21 So now, swear to
me by the LORD that you will not cut off my descendants or wipe out my na
me from my father’s house.”"
1 Samuel 24:19 When a man finds his enemy, does he let him go away unhar
med? May the LORD reward you with good for what you have done for
me this day.
1 Samuel 24:18 And you have shown this day how well you have dealt with
me; for when the LORD delivered
me into your hand, you did not kill
me.
1 Samuel 24:17 and said to David, “You are more righteous than I, for you have rewarded
me with good, though I have rewarded you with evil."
1 Samuel 24:15 May the LORD be our judge and decide between you and
me. May He take notice and plead my case and deliver
me from your hand.”"
1 Samuel 24:14 Against whom has the king of Israel co
me out? Whom are you pursuing? A dead dog? A flea?
1 Samuel 24:12 May the LORD judge between you and
me, and may the LORD take vengeance on you, but my hand will never be against you.
1 Samuel 24:11 See, my father, look at the corner of your robe in my hand. For I cut it off, but I did not kill you. See and know that there is no evil or rebellion in my hands. I have not sinned against you, even though you are hunting
me down to take my life.
1 Samuel 24:9 and said to Saul, “Why do you listen to the words of
men who say, ‘Look, David intends to harm you’?"
1 Samuel 24:7 With these words David restrained his
men, and he did not let them rise up against Saul. Then Saul left the cave and went on his way.
1 Samuel 24:6 So he said to his
men, “The LORD forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the LORD’s anointed. May I never lift my hand against him, since he is the LORD’s anointed.”"
1 Samuel 24:4 So David’s
men said to him, “This is the day about which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold, I will deliver your enemy into your hand, that you may do with him as you wish.’” Then David crept up secretly and cut off a corner of Saul’s robe."
1 Samuel 24:3 Soon Saul ca
me to the sheepfolds along the road, where there was a cave, and he went in to relieve himself. And David and his
men were hiding in the recesses of the cave.
1 Samuel 24:2 So Saul took three thousand chosen
men from all Israel and went to look for David and his
men in the region of the Rocks of the Wild Goats.
1 Samuel 23:28 So Saul broke off his pursuit of David and went to
meet the Philistines. That is why that place is called Sela-hammahlekoth.
1 Samuel 23:27 Then a
messenger ca
me to Saul, saying, “Co
me quickly, for the Philistines have raided the land!”"
1 Samuel 23:26 Saul was proceeding along one side of the mountain, and David and his
men along the other side. Even though David was hurrying to get away, Saul and his
men were closing in on David and his
men to capture them.
1 Samuel 23:25 and Saul and his
men went to seek him. When David was told about it, he went down to the rock and stayed in the Wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard of this, he pursued David there.
1 Samuel 23:24 So they set out and went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his
men were in the Wilderness of Maon in the Arabah south of Jeshimon,
1 Samuel 23:23 Observe and find out all the places where he hides. Then co
me back to
me with certainty, and I will go with you. If he is in the land, I will search him out among all the clans of Judah.”"
1 Samuel 23:22 Please go and prepare further. Investigate and watch carefully where he goes and who has seen him there, for I am told that he is extre
mely cunning.
1 Samuel 23:21 “May you be blessed by the LORD,” replied Saul, “for you have had compassion on
me."
1 Samuel 23:20 Now, O king, co
me down whenever your soul desires, and we will be responsible for delivering him into your hand.”"
1 Samuel 23:19 Then the Ziphites ca
me up to Saul at Gibeah and said, “Is not David hiding among us in the strongholds at Horesh, on the hill of Hachilah south of Jeshimon?"
1 Samuel 23:18 So the two of them made a covenant before the LORD. And David remained in Horesh, while Jonathan went ho
me.
1 Samuel 23:16 And Saul’s son Jonathan ca
me to David in Horesh and strengthened his hand in God,"
1 Samuel 23:15 While David was in Horesh in the Wilderness of Ziph, he saw that Saul had co
me out to take his life.
1 Samuel 23:13 Then David and his
men, about six hundred strong, set out and departed from Keilah, moving from place to place. When Saul was told that David had escaped from Keilah, he declined to go forth.
1 Samuel 23:12 So David asked, “Will the citizens of Keilah surrender
me and my
men into the hand of Saul?” “They will,” said the LORD."
1 Samuel 23:11 Will the citizens of Keilah surrender
me into his hand? Will Saul co
me down, as Your servant has heard? O LORD, God of Israel, please tell Your servant.” “He will,” said the LORD."
1 Samuel 23:10 And David said, “O LORD, God of Israel, Your servant has heard that Saul intends to co
me to Keilah and destroy the city on my account."
1 Samuel 23:8 Then Saul summoned all his troops to go to war at Keilah and besiege David and his
men.
1 Samuel 23:6 (Now Abiathar son of Ahi
melech had brought the ephod with him when he fled to David at Keilah.)
1 Samuel 23:5 Then David and his
men went to Keilah, fought against the Philistines, and carried off their livestock, striking them with a mighty blow. So David saved the people of Keilah.
1 Samuel 23:3 But David’s
men said to him, “Look, we are afraid here in Judah; how much more if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?”"
1 Samuel 22:23 Stay with
me; do not be afraid, for he who seeks your life is seeking mine as well. You will be safe with
me.”"
1 Samuel 22:20 But one of the sons of Ahi
melech son of Ahitub escaped. His na
me was Abiathar, and he fled to David.
1 Samuel 22:19 He also put to the sword Nob, the city of the priests, with its
men and wo
men, children and infants, oxen, donkeys, and sheep.
1 Samuel 22:18 So the king ordered Doeg, “You turn and strike down the priests!” And Doeg the Edomite turned and struck down the priests himself. On that day he killed eighty-five
men who wore the linen ephod."
1 Samuel 22:17 Then the king ordered the guards at his side, “Turn and kill the priests of the LORD, because they too sided with David. For they knew he was fleeing, but they did not tell
me.” But the king’s servants would not lift a hand to strike the priests of the LORD."
1 Samuel 22:16 But the king replied, “You will surely die, Ahi
melech, you and all your father’s house!”"
1 Samuel 22:15 Was that day the first ti
me I inquired of God for him? Far be it from
me! Let not the king accuse your servant or any of my father’s household, for your servant knew nothing of this whole affair—not in part or in whole.”"
1 Samuel 22:14 Ahi
melech answered the king, “Who among all your servants is as faithful as David, the king’s son-in-law, the captain of your bodyguard who is honored in your house?"
1 Samuel 22:13 And Saul asked him, “Why have you and the son of Jesse conspired against
me? You gave him bread and a sword and inquired of God for him so that he could rise up against
me to lie in wait, as he is doing today.”"
1 Samuel 22:11 Then the king sent
messengers to summon Ahi
melech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and his father’s whole family, who were priests at Nob. And all of them ca
me to the king."
1 Samuel 22:10 Ahi
melech inquired of the LORD for him and gave him provisions. He also gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.”"
1 Samuel 22:9 But Doeg the Edomite, who had stationed himself with Saul’s servants, answered: “I saw the son of Jesse co
me to Ahi
melech son of Ahitub at Nob."
1 Samuel 22:8 Is that why all of you have conspired against
me? Not one of you told
me that my own son had made a covenant with the son of Jesse. Not one of you has shown concern for
me or revealed to
me that my son has stirred up my own servant to lie in wait against
me, as is the case today.”"
1 Samuel 22:7 Then Saul said to his servants, “Listen,
men of Benjamin! Is the son of Jesse giving all of you fields and vineyards and making you commanders of thousands or hundreds?"
1 Samuel 22:6 Soon Saul learned that David and his
men had been discovered. At that ti
me Saul was in Gibeah, sitting under the tamarisk tree on the hill at Gibeah, with his spear in hand and all his servants standing around him.
1 Samuel 22:4 So he left them in the care of the king of Moab, and they stayed with him the whole ti
me David was in the stronghold.
1 Samuel 22:3 From there David went to Mizpeh of Moab, where he said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and mother stay with you until I learn what God will do for
me.”"
1 Samuel 22:2 And all who were distressed or indebted or discontented rallied around him, and he beca
me their leader. About four hundred
men were with him.
1 Samuel 21:15 Am I in need of mad
men, that you have brought this man to rave in my presence? Must this man co
me into my house?”"
1 Samuel 21:14 Then Achish said to his servants, “Look, you can see that the man is insane! Why have you brought him to
me?"
1 Samuel 21:9 The priest replied, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, is here; it is wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you want, you may take it. For there is no other but this one.” And David said, “There is none like it; give it to
me.”"
1 Samuel 21:8 Then David asked Ahi
melech, “Is there not a spear or sword on hand here? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with
me, because the king’s business was urgent.”"
1 Samuel 21:7 Now one of Saul’s servants was there that day, detained before the LORD. And his na
me was Doeg the Edomite, the chief shepherd for Saul."
1 Samuel 21:5 David answered, “Wo
men have indeed been kept from us, as is usual when I set out. And the equip
ment of the young
men is holy, as it is even on common missions, and all the more at this ti
me.”"
1 Samuel 21:4 “There is no common bread on hand,” the priest replied, “but there is so
me consecrated bread—provided that the young
men have kept themselves from wo
men.”"
1 Samuel 21:3 Now then, what do you have on hand? Give
me five loaves of bread, or whatever can be found.”"
1 Samuel 21:2 “The king has given
me a mission,” David replied. “He told
me no one is to know about the mission or charge. And I have directed my young
men to
meet
me at a certain place."
1 Samuel 21:1 Then David ca
me to Nob, to Ahi
melech the priest. And when Ahi
melech
met David, he trembled and asked him, “Why are you alone? Why is no one with you?”"
1 Samuel 20:42 And Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for the two of us have sworn in the na
me of the LORD, saying, ‘May the LORD be a witness between you and
me, and between your descendants and mine forever.’” Then David got up and departed, and Jonathan went back into the city."
1 Samuel 20:41 When the young man had gone, David got up from the south side of the stone, fell facedown, and bowed three ti
mes. Then he and Jonathan kissed each other and wept together—though David wept more."
1 Samuel 20:40 Then Jonathan gave his equip
ment to the boy and said, “Go, take it back to the city.”"
1 Samuel 20:39 But the boy did not know anything; only Jonathan and David knew the arrange
ment.
1 Samuel 20:35 In the morning Jonathan went out to the field for the appoint
ment with David, and a small boy was with him.
1 Samuel 20:34 Jonathan got up from the table in fierce anger and did not eat any food that second day of the month, for he was grieved by his father’s sha
meful treat
ment of David."
1 Samuel 20:31 For as long as the son of Jesse lives on this earth, neither you nor your kingship shall be established. Now send for him and bring him to
me, for he must surely die!”"
1 Samuel 20:30 Then Saul’s anger burned against Jonathan, and he said to him, “You son of a perverse and rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own sha
me and to the disgrace of the mother who bore you?"
1 Samuel 20:29 saying, ‘Please let
me go, because our clan is holding a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has told
me to be there. So now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let
me go and see my brothers.’ That is why he did not co
me to the king’s table.”"
1 Samuel 20:27 But on the day after the New Moon, the second day, David’s place was still empty, and Saul asked his son Jonathan, “Why hasn’t the son of Jesse co
me to the
meal either yesterday or today?”"
1 Samuel 20:26 Saul said nothing that day because he thought, “So
mething has happened to David to make him ceremonially unclean—surely he is unclean.”"
1 Samuel 20:24 So David hid in the field, and when the New Moon had co
me, the king sat down to eat.
1 Samuel 20:23 And as for the matter you and I have discussed, the LORD is a witness between you and
me forever.”"
1 Samuel 20:21 Then I will send a boy and say, ‘Go, find the arrows!’ Now, if I expressly say to him, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you; bring them,’ then co
me, because as surely as the LORD lives, it is safe for you and there is no danger."
1 Samuel 20:14 And as long as I live, treat
me with the LORD’s loving devotion, that I may not die,"
1 Samuel 20:13 But if my father intends to bring evil on you, then may the LORD punish
me, and ever so severely, if I do not tell you and send you on your way in safety. May the LORD be with you, just as He has been with my father.
1 Samuel 20:12 and Jonathan said, “By the LORD, the God of Israel, I will sound out my father by this ti
me tomorrow or the next day. If he is favorable toward you, will I not send for you and tell you?"
1 Samuel 20:11 “Co
me,” he replied, “let us go out to the field.” So the two of them went out into the field,"
1 Samuel 20:10 Then David asked Jonathan, “Who will tell
me if your father answers you harshly?”"
1 Samuel 20:8 Therefore deal faithfully with your servant, for you have brought
me into a covenant with you before the LORD. If there is iniquity in
me, then kill
me yourself; why should you bring
me to your father?”"
1 Samuel 20:6 If your father misses
me at all, tell him, ‘David urgently requested my permission to hurry to Bethlehem, his ho
metown, because there is an annual sacrifice for his whole clan.’"
1 Samuel 20:5 So David told him, “Look, tomorrow is the New Moon, and I am supposed to dine with the king. Instead, let
me go and hide in the field until the third evening from now."
1 Samuel 20:3 But David again vowed, “Your father knows very well that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said, ‘Jonathan must not know of this, or he will be grieved.’ As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, there is but a step between
me and death.”"
1 Samuel 20:2 “Far from it!” Jonathan replied. “You will not die. Indeed, my father does nothing, great or small, without telling
me. So why would he hide this matter from
me? This cannot be true!”"
1 Samuel 20:1 Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah. He ca
me to Jonathan and asked, “What have I done? What is my iniquity? How have I sinned against your father, that he wants to take my life?”"
1 Samuel 19:23 So Saul went to Naioth in Ramah. But the Spirit of God ca
me upon even Saul, and he walked along prophesying until he ca
me to Naioth in Ramah.
1 Samuel 19:22 Finally, Saul himself left for Ramah and ca
me to the large cistern at Secu, where he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” “At Naioth in Ramah,” he was told."
1 Samuel 19:21 When this was reported to Saul, he sent more
messengers, but they began to prophesy as well. So Saul tried again and sent
messengers a third ti
me, and even they began to prophesy.
1 Samuel 19:20 he sent
messengers to capture him. But when they saw the group of prophets prophesying, with Samuel leading them, the Spirit of God ca
me upon them, and Saul’s
messengers also began to prophesy."
1 Samuel 19:17 And Saul said to Michal, “Why did you deceive
me like this? You sent my enemy away and he has escaped!” Michal replied, “He said to
me, ‘Help
me get away, or I will kill you!’”"
1 Samuel 19:16 And when the
messengers entered, there was the idol in the bed with the quilt of goats’ hair on its head."
1 Samuel 19:15 But Saul sent the
messengers back to see David and told them, “Bring him up to
me in his bed so I can kill him.”"
1 Samuel 19:14 When Saul sent the
messengers to seize David, Michal said, “He is ill.”"
1 Samuel 19:13 Then Michal took a household idol and laid it in the bed, placed so
me goat hair on its head, and covered it with a gar
ment.
1 Samuel 19:11 Then Saul sent
messengers to David’s house to watch him and kill him in the morning. But David’s wife Michal warned him, “If you do not run for your life tonight, tomorrow you will be dead!”"
1 Samuel 19:9 But as Saul was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand, a spirit of distress from the LORD ca
me upon him. While David was playing the harp,
1 Samuel 18:30 Every ti
me the Philistine commanders ca
me out for battle, David was more successful than all of Saul’s officers, so that his na
me was highly estee
med."
1 Samuel 18:27 David and his
men went out and killed two hundred Philistines. He brought their foreskins and presented them as pay
ment in full to beco
me the king’s son-in-law. Then Saul gave his daughter Michal to David in marriage."
1 Samuel 18:26 When the servants reported these terms to David, he was pleased to beco
me the king’s son-in-law. Before the wedding day arrived,"
1 Samuel 18:23 But when Saul’s servants relayed these words to David, he replied, “Does it seem trivial in your sight to be the son-in-law of the king? I am a poor man and lightly estee
med.”"
1 Samuel 18:22 Then Saul ordered his servants, “Speak to David privately and tell him, ‘Behold, the king is pleased with you, and all his servants love you. Now therefore, beco
me his son-in-law.’”"
1 Samuel 18:21 “I will give her to David,” Saul thought, “so that she may be a snare to him, and the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” So Saul said to David, “For a second ti
me now you can be my son-in-law.”"
1 Samuel 18:19 So when it was ti
me to give Saul’s daughter
Merab to David, she was given in marriage to Adriel of
Meholah."
1 Samuel 18:18 And David said to Saul, “Who am I, and what is my family or my father’s clan in Israel, that I should beco
me the son-in-law of the king?”"
1 Samuel 18:17 Then Saul said to David, “Here is my older daughter
Merab. I will give her to you in marriage. Only be valiant for
me and fight the LORD’s battles.” But Saul was thinking, “I need not raise my hand against him; let the hand of the Philistines be against him.”"
1 Samuel 18:13 Therefore Saul sent David away and gave him command of a thousand
men. David led the troops out to battle and back,
1 Samuel 18:10 The next day a spirit of distress sent from God ca
me upon Saul, and he prophesied inside the house while David played the harp as usual. Now Saul was holding a spear,
1 Samuel 18:8 And Saul was furious and resented this song. “They have ascribed tens of thousands to David,” he said, “but only thousands to
me. What more can he have but the kingdom?”"
1 Samuel 18:7 And as the wo
men danced, they sang out: “Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands.”"
1 Samuel 18:6 As the troops were returning ho
me after David had killed the Philistine, the wo
men ca
me out of all the cities of Israel to
meet King Saul with singing and dancing, with joyful songs, and with tambourines and other instru
ments.
1 Samuel 18:5 So David marched out and prospered in everything Saul sent him to do, and Saul set him over the
men of war. And this was pleasing in the sight of all the people, and of Saul’s officers as well."
1 Samuel 17:52 Then the
men of Israel and Judah charged forward with a shout and pursued the Philistines to the entrance of Gath and to the gates of Ekron. And the bodies of the Philistines were strewn along the Shaaraim road to Gath and Ekron.
1 Samuel 17:48 As the Philistine started forward to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to
meet him.
1 Samuel 17:45 But David said to the Philistine, “You co
me against
me with sword and spear and javelin, but I co
me against you in the na
me of the LORD of Hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied."
1 Samuel 17:44 “Co
me here,” he called to David, “and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field!”"
1 Samuel 17:43 “Am I a dog,” he said to David, “that you co
me at
me with sticks?” And the Philistine cursed David by his gods."
1 Samuel 17:42 When the Philistine looked and saw David, he despised him because he was just a boy, ruddy and handso
me.
1 Samuel 17:41 Now the Philistine ca
me closer and closer to David, with his shield-bearer before him.
1 Samuel 17:39 David strapped his sword over the tunic and tried to walk, but he was not accusto
med to them. “I cannot walk in these,” David said to Saul. “I am not accusto
med to them.” So David took them off."
1 Samuel 17:38 Then Saul clothed David in his own tunic, put a bronze hel
met on his head, and dressed him in armor.
1 Samuel 17:37 David added, “The LORD, who delivered
me from the claws of the lion and the bear, will deliver
me from the hand of this Philistine.” “Go,” said Saul, “and may the LORD be with you.”"
1 Samuel 17:35 I went after it, struck it down, and delivered the lamb from its mouth. If it reared up against
me, I would grab it by its fur, strike it down, and kill it.
1 Samuel 17:34 David replied, “Your servant has been tending his father’s sheep, and whenever a lion or a bear ca
me and carried off a lamb from the flock,"
1 Samuel 17:28 Now when David’s oldest brother Eliab heard him speaking to the
men, his anger burned against David. “Why have you co
me down here?” he asked. “And with whom did you leave those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and wickedness of heart—you have co
me down to see the battle!”"
1 Samuel 17:26 David asked the
men who were standing with him, “What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and removes this disgrace from Israel? Just who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?”"
1 Samuel 17:25 Now the
men of Israel had been saying, “Do you see this man who keeps coming out to defy Israel? To the man who kills him the king will give great riches. And he will give him his daughter in marriage and exempt his father’s house from taxation in Israel.”"
1 Samuel 17:24 When all the
men of Israel saw Goliath, they fled from him in great fear.
1 Samuel 17:23 And as he was speaking with them, suddenly the champion na
med Goliath, the Philistine from Gath, ca
me forward from the Philistines and shouted his usual words, which David also heard.
1 Samuel 17:19 They are with Saul and all the
men of Israel in the Valley of Elah, fighting against the Philistines.”"
1 Samuel 17:16 For forty days the Philistine ca
me forward every morning and evening to take his stand.
1 Samuel 17:12 Now David was the son of a man na
med Jesse, an Ephrathite from Bethlehem of Judah who had eight sons in the days of Saul. And Jesse was old and well along in years.
1 Samuel 17:10 Then the Philistine said, “I defy the ranks of Israel this day! Give
me a man to fight!”"
1 Samuel 17:9 If he is able to fight
me and kill
me, then we will be your servants. But if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall be our servants and labor for us.”"
1 Samuel 17:8 And Goliath stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel, “Why do you co
me out and array yourselves for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and are you not servants of Saul? Choose one of your
men and have him co
me down against
me."
1 Samuel 17:5 and he had a bronze hel
met on his head. He wore a bronze coat of mail weighing five thousand shekels,
1 Samuel 17:4 Then a champion na
med Goliath, who was from Gath, ca
me out from the Philistine camp. He was six cubits and a span in height,
1 Samuel 17:2 Saul and the
men of Israel assembled and camped in the Valley of Elah, arraying themselves for battle against the Philistines.
1 Samuel 16:23 And whenever the spirit from God ca
me upon Saul, David would pick up his harp and play, and Saul would beco
me well, and the spirit of distress would depart from him.
1 Samuel 16:21 When David ca
me to Saul and entered his service, Saul admired him greatly, and David beca
me his armor-bearer.
1 Samuel 16:19 So Saul sent
messengers to Jesse and said, “Send
me your son David, who is with the sheep.”"
1 Samuel 16:18 One of the servants answered, “I have seen a son of Jesse of Bethlehem who knows how to play the harp. He is a mighty man of valor, a warrior, eloquent and handso
me, and the LORD is with him.”"
1 Samuel 16:17 And Saul commanded his servants, “Find
me so
meone who plays well, and bring him to
me.”"
1 Samuel 16:16 Let our lord command your servants here to seek out so
meone who can skillfully play the harp. Whenever the spirit of distress from God is upon you, he is to play it, and you will be well.”"
1 Samuel 16:15 Saul’s servants said to him, “Surely a spirit of distress from God is tor
menting you."
1 Samuel 16:14 After the Spirit of the LORD had departed from Saul, a spirit of distress from the LORD began to tor
ment him.
1 Samuel 16:12 So Jesse sent for his youngest son and brought him in. He was ruddy, with beautiful eyes and a handso
me appearance. And the LORD said, “Rise and anoint him, for he is the one.”"
1 Samuel 16:5 “In peace,” he replied. “I have co
me to sacrifice to the LORD. Consecrate yourselves and co
me with
me to the sacrifice.” Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice."
1 Samuel 16:4 So Samuel did what the LORD had said and went to Bethlehem. When the elders of the town
met him, they trembled and asked, “Do you co
me in peace?”"
1 Samuel 16:3 Then invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you are to do. You are to anoint for
Me the one I indicate.”"
1 Samuel 16:2 “How can I go?” Samuel asked. “Saul will hear of it and kill
me!” The LORD answered, “Take a heifer with you and say, ‘I have co
me to sacrifice to the LORD.’"
1 Samuel 15:34 Then Samuel went to Ramah, but Saul went up to his ho
me in Gibeah of Saul.
1 Samuel 15:33 But Samuel declared: “As your sword has made wo
men childless, so your mother will be childless among wo
men.” And Samuel hacked Agag to pieces before the LORD at Gilgal."
1 Samuel 15:32 Then Samuel said, “Bring
me Agag king of the Amalekites.” Agag ca
me to him cheerfully, for he thought, “Surely the bitterness of death is past.”"
1 Samuel 15:30 “I have sinned,” Saul replied. “Please honor
me now before the elders of my people and before Israel. Co
me back with
me, so that I may worship the LORD your God.”"
1 Samuel 15:25 Now therefore, please forgive my sin and return with
me so I can worship the LORD.”"
1 Samuel 15:24 Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned; I have transgressed the LORD’s command
ment and your instructions, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice."
1 Samuel 15:20 “But I did obey the LORD,” Saul replied. “I went on the mission that the LORD gave
me. I brought back Agag king of Amalek and devoted the Amalekites to destruction."
1 Samuel 15:17 And Samuel said, “Although you were once small in your own eyes, have you not beco
me the head of the tribes of Israel? The LORD anointed you king over Israel"
1 Samuel 15:16 “Stop!” exclai
med Samuel. “Let
me tell you what the LORD said to
me last night.” “Tell
me,” Saul replied."
1 Samuel 15:12 Early in the morning Samuel got up to confront Saul, but he was told, “Saul has gone to Car
mel, and behold, he has set up a monu
ment for himself and has turned and gone down to Gilgal.”"
1 Samuel 15:11 “I regret that I have made Saul king, for he has turned away from following
Me and has not carried out My instructions.” And Samuel was distressed and cried out to the LORD all that night."
1 Samuel 15:6 And he warned the Kenites, “Since you showed kindness to all the Israelites when they ca
me up out of Egypt, go on and get away from the Amalekites. Otherwise I will sweep you away with them.” So the Kenites moved away from the Amalekites."
1 Samuel 15:5 Saul ca
me to the city of Amalek and lay in wait in the valley.
1 Samuel 15:4 So Saul summoned the troops and numbered them at Telaim—200,000 foot soldiers and 10,000
men of Judah."
1 Samuel 15:3 Now go and attack the Amalekites and devote to destruction all that belongs to them. Do not spare them, but put to death
men and wo
men, children and infants, oxen and sheep, ca
mels and donkeys.’”"
1 Samuel 15:1 Then Samuel said to Saul, “The LORD sent
me to anoint you king over His people Israel. Now therefore, listen to the words of the LORD."
1 Samuel 14:50 His wife’s na
me was Ahinoam daughter of Ahimaaz. The na
me of the commander of his army was Abner, the son of Saul’s uncle Ner."
1 Samuel 14:49 Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, Ishvi, and Malchishua. His two daughters were na
med
Merab (his firstborn) and Michal (his younger daughter).
1 Samuel 14:47 After Saul had assu
med the kingship over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side—the Moabites, the Ammonites, the Edomites, the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines. Wherever he turned, he routed them."
1 Samuel 14:44 And Saul declared, “May God punish
me, and ever so severely, if you, Jonathan, do not surely die!”"
1 Samuel 14:43 “Tell
me what you have done,” Saul commanded him. So Jonathan told him, “I only tasted a little honey with the end of the staff that was in my hand. And now I must die?”"
1 Samuel 14:42 Then Saul said, “Cast the lot between
me and my son Jonathan.” And Jonathan was selected."
1 Samuel 14:41 So Saul said to the LORD, the God of Israel, “Why have You not answered Your servant this day? If the fault is with
me or my son Jonathan, respond with Urim; but if the fault is with the
men of Israel, respond with Thummim.” And Jonathan and Saul were selected, but the people were cleared of the charge."
1 Samuel 14:38 Therefore Saul said, “Co
me here, all you leaders of the troops, and let us investigate how this sin has occurred today."
1 Samuel 14:35 Then Saul built an altar to the LORD; it was the first ti
me he had built an altar to the LORD.
1 Samuel 14:34 Then he said, “Go among the troops and tell them, ‘Each man must bring
me his ox or his sheep, slaughter them in this place, and then eat. Do not sin against the LORD by eating
meat with the blood still in it.’” So that night everyone brought his ox and slaughtered it there."
1 Samuel 14:33 Then so
meone reported to Saul: “Look, the troops are sinning against the LORD by eating
meat with the blood still in it.” “You have broken faith,” said Saul. “Roll a large stone over here at once.”"
1 Samuel 14:32 So they rushed greedily to the plunder, taking sheep, cattle, and calves. They slaughtered them on the ground and ate
meat with the blood still in it.
1 Samuel 14:24 Now the
men of Israel were in distress that day, for Saul had placed the troops under an oath, saying, “Cursed is the man who eats any food before evening, before I have taken vengeance on my enemies.” So none of the troops tasted any food."
1 Samuel 14:18 Then Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ark of God.” (For at that ti
me it was with the Israelites.)"
1 Samuel 14:16 Now when Saul’s watch
men at Gibeah in Benjamin looked and saw the troops
melting away and scattering in every direction,"
1 Samuel 14:14 In that first assault, Jonathan and his armor-bearer struck down about twenty
men over half an acre of land.
1 Samuel 14:12 So the
men of the outpost called out to Jonathan and his armor-bearer, “Co
me on up, and we will teach you a lesson!” “Follow
me,” Jonathan told his armor-bearer, “for the LORD has delivered them into the hand of Israel.”"
1 Samuel 14:11 So the two of them showed themselves to the outpost of the Philistines, who exclai
med, “Look, the Hebrews are coming out of the holes in which they were hiding!”"
1 Samuel 14:10 But if they say, ‘Co
me on up,’ then we will go up, because this will be our sign that the LORD has delivered them into our hands.”"
1 Samuel 14:9 If they say, ‘Wait until we co
me to you,’ then we will stay where we are and will not go up to them."
1 Samuel 14:8 “Very well,” said Jonathan, “we will cross over toward these
men and show ourselves to them."
1 Samuel 14:6 Jonathan said to the young man bearing his armor, “Co
me, let us cross over to the outpost of these uncircumcised
men. Perhaps the LORD will work on our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few.”"
1 Samuel 14:4 Now there were cliffs on both sides of the pass that Jonathan intended to cross to reach the Philistine outpost. One was na
med Bozez and the other Seneh.
1 Samuel 14:2 Meanwhile, Saul was staying under the po
megranate tree in Migron on the outskirts of Gibeah. And the troops who were with him numbered about six hundred
men,
1 Samuel 14:1 One day Jonathan son of Saul said to the young man bearing his armor, “Co
me, let us cross over to the Philistine outpost on the other side.” But Jonathan did not tell his father."
1 Samuel 13:15 Then Samuel set out from Gilgal and went up to Gibeah in Benjamin. And Saul numbered the troops who were with him, about six hundred
men.
1 Samuel 13:13 “You have acted foolishly,” Samuel declared. “You have not kept the command that the LORD your God gave you; if you had, the LORD would have established your kingdom over Israel for all ti
me."
1 Samuel 13:12 I thought, ‘Now the Philistines will descend upon
me at Gilgal, and I have not sought the favor of the LORD.’ So I felt compelled to offer the burnt offering.”"
1 Samuel 13:11 “What have you done?” Samuel asked. And Saul replied, “When I saw that the troops were deserting
me, and that you did not co
me at the appointed ti
me and the Philistines were gathering at Michmash,"
1 Samuel 13:9 So he said, “Bring
me the burnt offering and the peace offerings.” And he offered up the burnt offering."
1 Samuel 13:8 And Saul waited seven days for the ti
me appointed by Samuel, but Samuel did not co
me to Gilgal, and the troops began to desert Saul.
1 Samuel 13:7 So
me Hebrews even crossed the Jordan into the land of Gad and Gilead. Saul, however, remained at Gilgal, and all his troops were quaking in fear.
1 Samuel 13:6 Seeing that they were in danger because their troops were hard-pressed, the
men of Israel hid in caves and thickets, among the rocks, and in cellars and cisterns.
1 Samuel 13:5 Now the Philistines assembled to fight against Israel with three thousand chariots, six thousand horse
men, and troops as nu
merous as the sand on the seashore. They went up and camped at Michmash, east of Beth-aven.
1 Samuel 13:4 And all Israel heard the news: “Saul has attacked an outpost of the Philistines, and now Israel has beco
me a stench to the Philistines!” Then the people were summoned to join Saul at Gilgal."
1 Samuel 13:2 He chose for himself three thousand
men of Israel: Two thousand were with Saul at Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin. And the rest of the troops he sent away, each to his own ho
me.
1 Samuel 13:1 Saul was thirty years old when he beca
me king, and he reigned over Israel forty-two years.
1 Samuel 12:23 As for
me, far be it from
me that I should sin against the LORD by ceasing to pray for you. And I will continue to teach you the good and right way.
1 Samuel 12:22 Indeed, for the sake of His great na
me, the LORD will not abandon His people, because He was pleased to make you His own.
1 Samuel 12:12 But when you saw that Nahash king of the Ammonites was moving against you, you said to
me, ‘No, we must have a king to rule over us’—even though the LORD your God was your king."
1 Samuel 12:3 Here I am. Bear witness against
me before the LORD and before His anointed: Whose ox or donkey have I taken? Whom have I cheated or oppressed? From whose hand have I accepted a bribe and closed my eyes? Tell
me, and I will restore it to you.”"
1 Samuel 12:1 Then Samuel said to all Israel, “I have listened to your voice in all that you have said to
me, and I have set over you a king."
1 Samuel 11:15 So all the people went to Gilgal and confir
med Saul as king in the presence of the LORD. There they sacrificed peace offerings before the LORD, and Saul and all the Israelites rejoiced greatly.
1 Samuel 11:14 Then Samuel said to the people, “Co
me, let us go to Gilgal and renew the kingship there.”"
1 Samuel 11:12 Then the people said to Samuel, “Who said that Saul should not reign over us? Bring those
men here so we can kill them!”"
1 Samuel 11:10 Then the
men of Jabesh said to Nahash, “Tomorrow we will co
me out, and you can do with us whatever seems good to you.”"
1 Samuel 11:9 So they said to the
messengers who had co
me, “Tell the
men of Jabesh-gilead: ‘Deliverance will be yours tomorrow by the ti
me the sun is hot.’” And when the
messengers relayed this to the
men of Jabesh, they rejoiced."
1 Samuel 11:8 And when Saul numbered them at Bezek, there were 300,000 Israelites and 30,000
men of Judah.
1 Samuel 11:7 He took a pair of oxen, cut them into pieces, and sent them by
messengers throughout the land of Israel, proclaiming, “This is what will be done to the oxen of anyone who does not march behind Saul and Samuel.” Then the terror of the LORD fell upon the people, and they turned out as one man."
1 Samuel 11:5 Just then Saul was returning from the field, behind his oxen. “What troubles the people?” asked Saul. “Why are they weeping?” And they relayed to him the words of the
men from Jabesh."
1 Samuel 11:4 When the
messengers ca
me to Gibeah of Saul and relayed these words in the hearing of the people, they all wept aloud.
1 Samuel 11:3 “Hold off for seven days,” replied the elders of Jabesh, “and let us send
messengers throughout Israel. If there is no one to save us, we will surrender to you.”"
1 Samuel 11:1 Soon Nahash the Ammonite ca
me up and laid siege to Jabesh-gilead. All the
men of Jabesh said to him, “Make a treaty with us, and we will serve you.”"
1 Samuel 10:27 But so
me worthless
men said, “How can this man save us?” So they despised him and brought him no gifts; but Saul remained silent about it."
1 Samuel 10:26 Saul also went to his ho
me in Gibeah, and the
men of valor whose hearts God had touched went with him.
1 Samuel 10:25 Then Samuel explained to the people the rights of kingship. He wrote them on a scroll and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, each to his own ho
me.
1 Samuel 10:22 So again they inquired of the LORD, “Has the man co
me here yet?” And the LORD replied, “Behold, he has hidden himself among the baggage.”"
1 Samuel 10:21 Then he had the tribe of Benjamin co
me forward by its clans, and the clan of Matri was selected. Finally, Saul son of Kish was selected. But when they looked for him, they could not find him.
1 Samuel 10:20 Thus Samuel had all the tribes of Israel co
me forward, and the tribe of Benjamin was selected.
1 Samuel 10:15 “Tell
me,” Saul’s uncle asked, “what did Samuel say to you?”"
1 Samuel 10:12 Then a man who lived there replied, “And who is their father?” So the saying beca
me a proverb: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”"
1 Samuel 10:11 All those who had for
merly known Saul and saw him prophesying with the prophets asked one another, “What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”"
1 Samuel 10:10 When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets
met him. Then the Spirit of God rushed upon him, and he prophesied along with them.
1 Samuel 10:9 As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God changed Saul’s heart, and all the signs ca
me to pass that day."
1 Samuel 10:8 And you shall go before
me to Gilgal, and surely I will co
me to you to offer burnt offerings and to sacrifice peace offerings. Wait seven days until I co
me to you and show you what you are to do.”"
1 Samuel 10:7 When these signs have co
me, do as the occasion demands, for God is with you.
1 Samuel 10:6 Then the Spirit of the LORD will rush upon you, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be transfor
med into a different person.
1 Samuel 10:5 After that you will co
me to Gibeah of God, where the Philistines have an outpost. As you approach the city, you will
meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place, preceded by harps, tambourines, flutes, and lyres, and they will be prophesying.
1 Samuel 10:3 Then you will go on from there until you co
me to the Oak of Tabor. Three
men going up to God at Bethel will
meet you there, one carrying three young goats, another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a skin of wine.
1 Samuel 10:2 When you leave
me today, you will find two
men at Rachel’s tomb in Zelzah on the border of Benjamin. They will say to you, ‘The donkeys you seek have been found, and now your father has stopped worrying about the donkeys and started worrying about you, asking, “What should I do about my son?”’"
1 Samuel 9:25 And after they had co
me down from the high place into the city, Samuel spoke with Saul on the roof of his house.
1 Samuel 9:24 So the cook picked up the leg and what was attached to it and set it before Saul. Then Samuel said, “Here is what was kept back. It was set apart for you. Eat, for it has been kept for you for this occasion, from the ti
me I said, ‘I have invited the people.’” So Saul dined with Samuel that day."
1 Samuel 9:21 Saul replied, “Am I not a Benjamite from the smallest tribe of Israel, and is not my clan the least of all the clans of Benjamin? So why would you say such a thing to
me?”"
1 Samuel 9:19 “I am the seer,” Samuel replied. “Go up before
me to the high place, for you shall eat with
me today. And when I send you off in the morning, I will tell you all that is in your heart."
1 Samuel 9:18 Saul approached Samuel in the gateway and asked, “Would you please tell
me where the seer’s house is?”"
1 Samuel 9:16 “At this ti
me tomorrow I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin, and you are to anoint him leader over My people Israel; he will save them from the hand of the Philistines. For I have looked upon My people, because their cry has co
me to
Me.”"
1 Samuel 9:13 As soon as you enter the city, you will find him before he goes up to the high place to eat. The people will not eat until he co
mes, because he must bless the sacrifice; after that, the guests will eat. Go up at once; you will find him.”"
1 Samuel 9:12 “Yes, he is ahead of you,” they answered. “Hurry now, for today he has co
me to the city because the people have a sacrifice on the high place."
1 Samuel 9:11 And as they were climbing the hill to the city, they
met so
me young wo
men coming out to draw water and asked, “Is the seer here?”"
1 Samuel 9:10 “Good,” said Saul to his servant. “Co
me, let us go.” So they set out for the city where the man of God was."
1 Samuel 9:9 (For
merly in Israel, a man on his way to inquire of God would say, “Co
me, let us go to the seer.” For the prophet of today was for
merly called the seer.)"
1 Samuel 9:6 “Look,” said the servant, “in this city there is a man of God who is highly respected; everything he says surely co
mes to pass. Let us go there now. Perhaps he will tell us which way to go.”"
1 Samuel 9:5 When they reached the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant, “Co
me, let us go back, or my father will stop worrying about the donkeys and start worrying about us.”"
1 Samuel 9:2 And he had a son na
med Saul, choice and handso
me, without equal among the Israelites—a head taller than any of the people."
1 Samuel 9:1 Now there was a Benjamite, a powerful man, whose na
me was Kish son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becorath, the son of Aphiah of Benjamin.
1 Samuel 8:22 “Listen to their voice,” the LORD said to Samuel. “Appoint a king for them.” Then Samuel told the
men of Israel, “Everyone must go back to his city.”"
1 Samuel 8:18 When that day co
mes, you will beg for relief from the king you have chosen, but the LORD will not answer you on that day.”"
1 Samuel 8:17 He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will beco
me his slaves.
1 Samuel 8:16 And he will take your
menservants and maidservants and your best cattle and donkeys and put them to his own use.
1 Samuel 8:13 And he will take your daughters to be perfu
mers, cooks, and bakers.
1 Samuel 8:12 He will appoint so
me for himself as commanders of thousands and of fifties, and others to plow his ground, to reap his harvest, to make his weapons of war, and to equip his chariots.
1 Samuel 8:8 Just as they have done from the day I brought them up out of Egypt until this day, forsaking
Me and serving other gods, so they are doing to you.
1 Samuel 8:7 And the LORD said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you. For it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected
Me as their king."
1 Samuel 8:4 So all the elders of Israel gathered together and ca
me to Samuel at Ramah.
1 Samuel 8:2 The na
me of his firstborn son was Joel, and the na
me of his second was Abijah. They were judges in Beersheba.
1 Samuel 7:17 Then he would return to Ramah because his ho
me was there, and there he judged Israel and built an altar to the LORD.
1 Samuel 7:12 Afterward, Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He na
med it Ebenezer, saying, “Thus far the LORD has helped us.”"
1 Samuel 7:11 Then the
men of Israel charged out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, striking them down all the way to an area below Beth-car.
1 Samuel 7:2 And from that day a long ti
me passed, twenty years in all, as the ark remained at Kiriath-jearim. And all the house of Israel mourned and sought after the LORD.
1 Samuel 7:1 Then the
men of Kiriath-jearim ca
me for the ark of the LORD and took it into Abinadab’s house on the hill. And they consecrated his son Eleazar to guard the ark of the LORD."
1 Samuel 6:21 So they sent
messengers to the people of Kiriath-jearim, saying, “The Philistines have returned the ark of the LORD. Co
me down and take it up with you.”"
1 Samuel 6:20 The
men of Beth-she
mesh asked, “Who can stand in the presence of the LORD, this holy God? To whom should the ark go up from here?”"
1 Samuel 6:19 But God struck down so
me of the people of Beth-she
mesh because they looked inside the ark of the LORD. He struck down seventy
men, and the people mourned because the LORD had struck them with a great slaughter.
1 Samuel 6:18 The number of gold rats also corresponded to the number of Philistine cities belonging to the five rulers—the fortified cities and their outlying villages. And the large rock on which they placed the ark of the LORD stands to this day in the field of Joshua of Beth-she
mesh."
1 Samuel 6:16 And when the five rulers of the Philistines saw this, they returned to Ekron that sa
me day.
1 Samuel 6:15 And the Levites took down the ark of the LORD and the chest containing the gold objects, and they placed them on the large rock. That day the
men of Beth-she
mesh offered burnt offerings and made sacrifices to the LORD.
1 Samuel 6:14 The cart ca
me to the field of Joshua of Beth-she
mesh and stopped there near a large rock. The people chopped up the cart and offered the cows as a burnt offering to the LORD.
1 Samuel 6:13 Now the people of Beth-she
mesh were harvesting wheat in the valley, and when they looked up and saw the ark, they were overjoyed at the sight.
1 Samuel 6:12 And the cows headed straight up the road toward Beth-she
mesh, staying on that one highway and lowing as they went, never straying to the right or to the left. The rulers of the Philistines followed behind them to the border of Beth-she
mesh.
1 Samuel 6:10 So the
men did as instructed. They took two milk cows, hitched them to the cart, and penned up their calves.
1 Samuel 6:9 but keep watching it. If it goes up the road to its ho
meland, toward Beth-she
mesh, it is the LORD who has brought on us this great disaster. But if it does not, then we will know that it was not His hand that punished us and that it happened by chance.”"
1 Samuel 6:4 “What guilt offering should we send back to Him?” asked the Philistines. “Five gold tumors and five gold rats,” they said, “according to the number of rulers of the Philistines, since the sa
me plague has struck both you and your rulers."
1 Samuel 6:3 They replied, “If you return the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it away empty, but by all
means return it to Him with a guilt offering. Then you will be healed, and you will understand why His hand has not been lifted from you.”"
1 Samuel 5:9 But after they had moved the ark to Gath, the LORD’s hand was also against that city, throwing it into great confusion and afflicting the
men of the city, both young and old, with an outbreak of tumors."
1 Samuel 5:7 And when the
men of Ashdod saw what was happening, they said, “The ark of the God of Israel must not stay here with us, because His hand is heavy upon us and upon our god Dagon.”"
1 Samuel 4:21 And she na
med the boy Ichabod, saying, “The glory has departed from Israel,” because the ark of God had been captured and her father-in-law and her husband had been killed."
1 Samuel 4:20 As she was dying, the wo
men attending to her said, “Do not be afraid, for you have given birth to a son!” But she did not respond or pay any heed."
1 Samuel 4:18 As soon as the ark of God was
mentioned, Eli fell backward from his chair by the city gate, and being old and heavy, he broke his neck and died. And Eli had judged Israel forty years.
1 Samuel 4:17 The
messenger answered, “Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been a great slaughter among the people. Your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are both dead, and the ark of God has been captured.”"
1 Samuel 4:16 “I have just co
me from the battle,” the man said to Eli. “I fled from there today.” “What happened, my son?” Eli asked."
1 Samuel 4:12 That sa
me day a Benjamite ran from the battle line all the way to Shiloh, with his clothes torn and dirt on his head.
1 Samuel 4:9 Take courage and be
men, O Philistines! Otherwise, you will serve the Hebrews just as they served you. Now be
men and fight!”"
1 Samuel 4:4 So the people sent
men to Shiloh, and they brought back the ark of the covenant of the LORD of Hosts, who sits enthroned between the cherubim. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
1 Samuel 4:2 The Philistines arrayed themselves against Israel, and as the battle spread, Israel was defeated by the Philistines, who struck down about four thousand
men on the battlefield.
1 Samuel 4:1 Thus the word of Samuel ca
me to all Israel. Now the Israelites went out to
meet the Philistines in battle and camped at Ebenezer, while the Philistines camped at Aphek.
1 Samuel 3:20 So all Israel from Dan to Beersheba knew that Samuel was confir
med as a prophet of the LORD.
1 Samuel 3:17 “What was the
message He gave you?” Eli asked. “Do not hide it from
me. May God punish you, and ever so severely, if you hide from
me anything He said to you.”"
1 Samuel 3:13 I told him that I would judge his house forever for the iniquity of which he knows, because his sons blasphe
med God and he did not restrain them.
1 Samuel 3:11 Then the LORD said to Samuel, “I am about to do so
mething in Israel at which the ears of all who hear it will tingle."
1 Samuel 3:10 Then the LORD ca
me and stood there, calling as before, “Samuel! Samuel!” And Samuel answered, “Speak, for Your servant is listening.”"
1 Samuel 3:8 Once again, for the third ti
me, the LORD called to Samuel. He got up, went to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you have called
me.” Then Eli realized that it was the LORD who was calling the boy."
1 Samuel 3:6 Once again the LORD called, “Samuel!” So Samuel got up, went to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you have called
me.” “My son, I did not call,” Eli replied. “Go back and lie down.”"
1 Samuel 3:5 He ran to Eli and said, “Here I am, for you have called
me.” “I did not call,” Eli replied. “Go back and lie down.” So he went and lay down."
1 Samuel 3:2 And at that ti
me Eli, whose eyesight had grown so dim that he could not see, was lying in his room.
1 Samuel 2:36 And everyone left in your house will co
me and bow down to him for a piece of silver or a morsel of bread, pleading, “Please appoint
me to so
me priestly office so that I can eat a piece of bread.”’”"
♫ 1 Samuel 2:35 Then I will raise up for Myself a faithful priest. He will do whatever is in My heart and mind. And I will build for him an enduring house, and he will walk before My anointed one for all ti
me.
♫ 1 Samuel 2:34 And this sign shall co
me to you concerning your two sons Hophni and Phinehas: They will both die on the sa
me day.
♫ 1 Samuel 2:33 And every one of you that I do not cut off from My altar, your eyes will fail and your heart will grieve. All your descendants will die by the sword of
men.
♫ 1 Samuel 2:30 Therefore, the LORD, the God of Israel, declares: ‘I did indeed say that your house and the house of your father would walk before
Me forever. But now the LORD declares: Far be it from
Me! For I will honor those who honor
Me, but those who despise
Me will be disdained."
♫ 1 Samuel 2:29 Why then do you kick at My sacrifice and offering that I have prescribed for My dwelling place? You have honored your sons more than
Me by fattening yourselves with the best of all the offerings of My people Israel.’"
♫ 1 Samuel 2:27 Then a man of God ca
me to Eli and told him, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Did I not clearly reveal Myself to your father’s house when they were in Egypt under Pharaoh’s house?"
♫ 1 Samuel 2:22 Now Eli was very old, and he heard about everything his sons were doing to all Israel and how they were sleeping with the wo
men who served at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.
♫ 1 Samuel 2:21 So the LORD attended to Hannah, and she conceived and gave birth to three sons and two daughters.
Meanwhile, the boy Samuel grew up in the presence of the LORD.
♫ 1 Samuel 2:20 And Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, saying, “May the LORD give you children by this woman in place of the one she dedicated to the LORD.” Then they would go ho
me."
♫ 1 Samuel 2:17 Thus the sin of these young
men was severe in the sight of the LORD, for they were treating the LORD’s offering with contempt."
♫ 1 Samuel 2:16 And if any man said to him, “The fat must be burned first; then you may take whatever you want,” the servant would reply, “No, you must give it to
me right now. If you refuse, I will take it by force!”"
♫ 1 Samuel 2:15 Even before the fat was burned, the servant of the priest would co
me and say to the man who was sacrificing, “Give the priest so
me meat to roast, because he will not accept boiled
meat from you, but only raw.”"
♫ 1 Samuel 2:14 and plunge it into the pan or kettle or cauldron or cooking pot. And the priest would claim for himself whatever the
meat fork brought up. This is how they treated all the Israelites who ca
me to Shiloh.
♫ 1 Samuel 2:13 or for the custom of the priests with the people. When any man offered a sacrifice, the servant of the priest would co
me with a three-pronged
meat fork while the
meat was boiling
♫ 1 Samuel 2:12 Now the sons of Eli were wicked
men; they had no regard for the LORD
♫ 1 Samuel 2:11 Then Elkanah went ho
me to Ramah, but the boy began ministering to the LORD before Eli the priest.
♫ 1 Samuel 2:3 Do not boast so proudly, or let arrogance co
me from your mouth, for the LORD is a God who knows, and by Him actions are weighed.
♫2 1 Samuel 2:1 At that ti
me Hannah prayed: “My heart rejoices in the LORD in whom my horn is exalted. My mouth speaks boldly against my enemies, for I rejoice in Your salvation."
♫ 1 Samuel 1:27 I prayed for this boy, and since the LORD has granted
me what I asked of Him,
1 Samuel 1:20 So in the course of ti
me, Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She na
med him Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked for him from the LORD.”"
1 Samuel 1:19 The next morning Elkanah and Hannah got up early to bow in worship before the LORD, and then returned ho
me to Ramah. And Elkanah had relations with his wife Hannah, and the LORD re
membered her.
1 Samuel 1:16 Do not take your servant for a wicked woman; for all this ti
me I have been praying out of the depth of my anguish and grief.”"
1 Samuel 1:11 And she made a vow, pleading, “O LORD of Hosts, if only You will look upon the affliction of Your maidservant and re
member
me, not forgetting Your maidservant but giving her a son, then I will dedicate him to the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall ever co
me over his head.”"
1 Samuel 1:4 And whenever the day ca
me for Elkanah to present his sacrifice, he would give portions to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters.
1 Samuel 1:2 He had two wives, one na
med Hannah and the other Peninnah. And Peninnah had children, but Hannah had none.
1 Samuel 1:1 Now there was a man na
med Elkanah who was from Ramathaim-zophim in the hill country of Ephraim. He was the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.
Ruth 4:17 The neighbor wo
men said, “A son has been born to Naomi,” and they na
med him Obed. He beca
me the father of Jesse, the father of David."
Ruth 4:16 And Naomi took the child, placed him on her lap, and beca
me a nurse to him.
Ruth 4:14 Then the wo
men said to Naomi, “Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you this day without a kinsman-redee
mer. May his na
me beco
me famous in Israel."
♫ Ruth 4:13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she beca
me his wife. And when he had relations with her, the LORD enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son.
Ruth 4:12 And may your house beco
me like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, because of the offspring the LORD will give you by this young woman.”"
Ruth 4:11 “We are witnesses,” said the elders and all the people at the gate. “May the LORD make the woman entering your ho
me like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you be prosperous in Ephrathah and famous in Bethlehem."
Ruth 4:10 Moreover, I have acquired Ruth the Moabitess, Mahlon’s widow, as my wife, to raise up the na
me of the deceased through his inheritance, so that his na
me will not disappear from among his brothers or from the gate of his ho
me. You are witnesses today.”"
Ruth 4:9 At this, Boaz said to the elders and all the people, “You are witnesses today that I am buying from Naomi all that belonged to Eli
melech, Chilion, and Mahlon."
Ruth 4:8 So the kinsman-redee
mer removed his sandal and said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself.”"
Ruth 4:7 Now in for
mer ti
mes in Israel, concerning the redemption or exchange of property, to make any matter legally binding a man would remove his sandal and give it to the other party, and this was a confirmation in Israel.
Ruth 4:6 The kinsman-redee
mer replied, “I cannot redeem it myself, or I would jeopardize my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption, because I cannot redeem it.”"
Ruth 4:5 Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the land from Naomi and also from Ruth the Moabitess, you must also acquire the widow of the deceased in order to raise up the na
me of the deceased on his inheritance.”"
Ruth 4:4 I thought I should inform you that you may buy it back in the presence of those seated here and in the presence of the elders of my people. If you want to redeem it, do so. But if you will not redeem it, tell
me so I may know, because there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you.” “I will redeem it,” he replied."
Ruth 4:3 And he said to the kinsman-redee
mer, “Naomi, who has returned from the land of Moab, is selling the piece of land that belonged to our brother Eli
melech."
Ruth 4:1 Meanwhile, Boaz went to the gate and sat down there. Soon the kinsman-redee
mer of whom he had spoken ca
me along, and Boaz said, “Co
me over here, my friend, and sit down.” So he went over and sat down."
Ruth 3:17 And she said, “He gave
me these six
measures of barley, for he said, ‘Do not go back to your mother-in-law empty-handed.’”"
Ruth 3:15 And he told her, “Bring the shawl you are wearing and hold it out.” When she did so, he shoveled six
measures of barley into her shawl. Then he went into the city."
Ruth 3:14 So she lay down at his feet until morning, but she got up before anyone else could recognize her. Then Boaz said, “Do not let it be known that a woman ca
me to the threshing floor.”"
Ruth 3:12 Yes, it is true that I am a kinsman-redee
mer, but there is a redee
mer nearer than I.
Ruth 3:10 Then Boaz said, “May the LORD bless you, my daughter. You have shown more kindness now than before, because you have not run after the younger
men, whether rich or poor."
Ruth 3:9 “Who are you?” he asked. “I am your servant Ruth,” she replied. “Spread the corner of your gar
ment over
me, for you are a kinsman-redee
mer.”"
♫ Ruth 3:3 Therefore wash yourself, put on perfu
me, and wear your best clothes. Go down to the threshing floor, but do not let the man know you are there until he has finished eating and drinking.
Ruth 2:22 And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law Ruth, “My daughter, it is good for you to work with his young wo
men, so that nothing will happen to you in another field.”"
Ruth 2:21 Then Ruth the Moabitess said, “He also told
me, ‘Stay with my young
men until they have finished gathering all my harvest.’”"
Ruth 2:20 Then Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, “May he be blessed by the LORD, who has not withdrawn His kindness from the living or the dead.” Naomi continued, “The man is a close relative. He is one of our kinsman-redee
mers.”"
Ruth 2:19 Then her mother-in-law asked her, “Where did you glean today, and where did you work? Blessed be the man who noticed you.” So she told her mother-in-law where she had worked. “The na
me of the man I worked with today is Boaz,” she said."
Ruth 2:18 She picked up the grain and went into the town, where her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. And she brought out what she had saved from her
meal and gave it to Naomi.
Ruth 2:16 Rather, pull out for her so
me stalks from the bundles and leave them for her to gather. Do not rebuke her.”"
Ruth 2:15 When Ruth got up to glean, Boaz ordered his young
men, “Even if she gathers among the sheaves, do not insult her."
Ruth 2:14 At
mealti
me Boaz said to her, “Co
me over here; have so
me bread and dip it into the vinegar sauce.” So she sat down beside the harvesters, and he offered her roasted grain, and she ate and was satisfied and had so
me left over."
Ruth 2:11 Boaz replied, “I have been made fully aware of all you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, how you left your father and mother and the land of your birth, and how you ca
me to a people you did not know before."
Ruth 2:10 At this, she fell on her face, bowing low to the ground, and said to him, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you should take notice of
me, even though I am a foreigner?”"
Ruth 2:9 Let your eyes be on the field they are harvesting, and follow along after these girls. Indeed, I have ordered the young
men not to touch you. And when you are thirsty, go and drink from the jars the young
men have filled.”"
Ruth 2:7 She has said, ‘Please let
me glean and gather among the sheaves after the harvesters.’ So she ca
me out and has continued from morning until now, except that she rested a short ti
me in the shelter.”"
Ruth 2:3 So Ruth departed and went out into the field and gleaned after the harvesters. And she happened to co
me to the part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was from the clan of Eli
melech.
Ruth 2:2 And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, “Please let
me go into the fields and glean heads of grain after so
meone in whose sight I may find favor.” “Go ahead, my daughter,” Naomi replied."
Ruth 2:1 Now Naomi had a relative on her husband’s side, a prominent man of noble character from the clan of Eli
melech, whose na
me was Boaz."
Ruth 1:21 I went away full, but the LORD has brought
me back empty. Why call
me Naomi? After all, the LORD has testified against
me, and the Almighty has afflicted
me.”"
Ruth 1:20 “Do not call
me Naomi,” she replied. “Call
me Mara, because the Almighty has dealt quite bitterly with
me."
Ruth 1:19 So Naomi and Ruth traveled until they ca
me to Bethlehem. When they entered Bethlehem, the whole city was stirred because of them, and the wo
men of the city exclai
med, “Can this be Naomi?”"
Ruth 1:17 Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. May the LORD punish
me, and ever so severely, if anything but death separates you and
me.”"
♫ Ruth 1:16 But Ruth replied: “Do not urge
me to leave you or to turn from following you. For wherever you go, I will go, and wherever you live, I will live; your people will be my people, and your God will be my God."
♫ Ruth 1:15 “Look,” said Naomi, “your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and her gods; follow her back ho
me.”"
Ruth 1:13 would you wait for them to grow up? Would you refrain from having husbands? No, my daughters, it grieves
me very much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD has gone out against
me.”"
Ruth 1:12 Return ho
me, my daughters. Go on, for I am too old to have another husband. Even if I thought there was hope for
me to have a husband tonight and to bear sons,
Ruth 1:11 But Naomi replied, “Return ho
me, my daughters. Why would you go with
me? Are there still sons in my womb to beco
me your husbands?"
Ruth 1:9 May the LORD enable each of you to find rest in the ho
me of your new husband.” And she kissed them as they wept aloud"
Ruth 1:8 Then Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, “Go back, each of you to your mother’s ho
me. May the LORD show you loving devotion, as you have shown to your dead and to
me."
Ruth 1:4 who took Moabite wo
men as their wives, one na
med Orpah and the other na
med Ruth. And after they had lived in Moab about ten years,
Ruth 1:3 Then Naomi’s husband Eli
melech died, and she was left with her two sons,"
Ruth 1:2 The man’s na
me was Eli
melech, his wife’s na
me was Naomi, and the na
mes of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem in Judah, and they entered the land of Moab and settled there."
Judges 21:24 And at that ti
me, each of the Israelites returned from there to his own tribe and clan, each to his own inheritance.
Judges 21:23 The Benjamites did as instructed and carried away the number of wo
men they needed from the dancers they caught. They went back to their own inheritance, rebuilt their cities, and settled in them.
Judges 21:22 When their fathers or brothers co
me to us to complain, we will tell them, ‘Do us a favor by helping them, since we did not get wives for each of them in the war. Since you did not actually give them your daughters, you have no guilt.’”"
Judges 21:21 and watch. When you see the daughters of Shiloh co
me out to perform their dances, each of you is to co
me out of the vineyards, catch for himself a wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin.
Judges 21:16 Then the elders of the congregation said, “What should we do about wives for those who remain, since the wo
men of Benjamin have been destroyed?”"
Judges 21:14 And at that ti
me the Benjamites returned and were given the wo
men who were spared from Jabesh-gilead. But there were not enough wo
men for all of them.
Judges 21:13 Then the whole congregation sent a
message of peace to the Benjamites who were at the rock of Rimmon.
Judges 21:12 So they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young wo
men who had not had relations with a man, and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh in the land of Canaan.
Judges 21:10 So the congregation sent 12,000 of their most valiant
men and commanded them: “Go and put to the sword those living in Jabesh-gilead, including wo
men and children."
Judges 21:8 So they asked, “Which one of the tribes of Israel failed to co
me up before the LORD at Mizpah?” And, in fact, no one from Jabesh-gilead had co
me to the camp for the assembly."
Judges 21:5 The Israelites asked, “Who among all the tribes of Israel did not co
me to the assembly before the LORD?” For they had taken a solemn oath that anyone who failed to co
me up before the LORD at Mizpah would surely be put to death."
Judges 21:2 So the people ca
me to Bethel and sat there before God until evening, lifting up their voices and weeping bitterly.
Judges 21:1 Now the
men of Israel had sworn an oath at Mizpah, saying, “Not one of us will give his daughter in marriage to a Benjamite.”"
Judges 20:48 And the
men of Israel turned back against the other Benjamites and put to the sword all the cities, including the animals and everything else they found. And they burned down all the cities in their path.
Judges 20:47 But 600
men turned and fled into the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, where they stayed four months.
Judges 20:46 That day 25,000 Benjamite swords
men fell, all
men of valor.
Judges 20:45 Then the Benjamites turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, and Israel cut down 5,000
men on the roads. And they overtook them at Gidom and struck down 2,000 more.
Judges 20:42 So they fled before the
men of Israel toward the wilderness, but the battle overtook them, and the
men coming out of the cities struck them down there.
Judges 20:41 Then the
men of Israel turned back on them, and the
men of Benjamin were terrified when they realized that disaster had co
me upon them.
Judges 20:39 the
men of Israel would turn in the battle. When the Benjamites had begun to strike them down, killing about thirty
men of Israel, they said, “They are defeated before us as in the first battle.”"
Judges 20:38 The
men of Israel had arranged a signal with the
men in ambush: When they sent up a great cloud of smoke from the city,
Judges 20:37 The
men in ambush rushed suddenly against Gibeah; they advanced and put the whole city to the sword.
Judges 20:36 Then the Benjamites realized they had been defeated. Now the
men of Israel had retreated before Benjamin because they were relying on the ambush they had set against Gibeah.
Judges 20:35 The LORD defeated Benjamin in the presence of Israel, and on that day the Israelites slaughtered 25,100 Benjamites, all ar
med with swords.
Judges 20:34 Then 10,000 select
men from all Israel made a frontal assault against Gibeah, and the battle was fierce. But the Benjamites did not realize that disaster was upon them.
Judges 20:33 So all the
men of Israel got up from their places and arrayed themselves at Baal-tamar, and the Israelites in ambush charged from their positions west of Gibeah.
Judges 20:31 The Benjamites ca
me out against them and were drawn away from the city. They began to attack the people as before, killing about thirty
men of Israel in the fields and on the roads, one of which led up to Bethel and the other to Gibeah.
Judges 20:25 That sa
me day the Benjamites ca
me out against them from Gibeah and cut down another 18,000 Israelites, all of them ar
med with swords.
Judges 20:22 But the Israelite army took courage and again took their battle positions in the sa
me place where they had arrayed themselves on the first day.
Judges 20:21 And the Benjamites ca
me out of Gibeah and cut down 22,000 Israelites on the battlefield that day.
Judges 20:20 And the
men of Israel went out to fight against Benjamin and took up their battle positions at Gibeah.
Judges 20:17 The Israelites, apart from Benjamin, mobilized 400,000 swords
men, each one an experienced warrior.
Judges 20:15 On that day the Benjamites mobilized 26,000 swords
men from their cities, in addition to the 700 select
men of Gibeah.
Judges 20:14 And from their cities they ca
me together at Gibeah to go out and fight against the Israelites.
Judges 20:13 Hand over the wicked
men of Gibeah so we can put them to death and purge Israel of this evil.” But the Benjamites refused to heed the voice of their fellow Israelites."
Judges 20:12 And the tribes of Israel sent
men throughout the tribe of Benjamin, saying, “What is this wickedness that has occurred among you?"
Judges 20:11 So all the
men of Israel gathered as one man, united against the city.
Judges 20:10 We will take ten
men out of every hundred from all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred out of every thousand, and a thousand out of every ten thousand, to supply provisions for the army when they go to Gibeah in Benjamin to punish them for the atrocity they have committed in Israel.”"
Judges 20:5 And during the night, the
men of Gibeah rose up against
me and surrounded the house. They intended to kill
me, but they abused my concubine, and she died.
Judges 20:4 So the Levite, the husband of the murdered woman, answered: “I and my concubine ca
me to Gibeah in Benjamin to spend the night."
Judges 20:3 (
Meanwhile the Benjamites heard that the Israelites had gone up to Mizpah.) And the Israelites asked, “Tell us, how did this wicked thing happen?”"
Judges 20:2 The leaders of all the people and all the tribes of Israel presented themselves in the assembly of God’s people: 400,000
men on foot, ar
med with swords."
Judges 20:1 Then all the Israelites from Dan to Beersheba and from the land of Gilead ca
me out, and the congregation assembled as one man before the LORD at Mizpah.
Judges 19:30 And everyone who saw it said, “Nothing like this has been seen or done from the day the Israelites ca
me out of the land of Egypt until this day. Think it over, take counsel, and speak up!”"
Judges 19:28 “Get up,” he told her. “Let us go.” But there was no response. So the man put her on his donkey and set out for ho
me."
Judges 19:25 But the
men would not listen to him. So the Levite took his concubine and sent her outside to them, and they raped her and abused her throughout the night, and at dawn they let her go.
Judges 19:24 Look, let
me bring out my virgin daughter and the man’s concubine, and you can use them and do with them as you wish. But do not do such a vile thing to this man.”"
Judges 19:22 While they were enjoying themselves, suddenly the wicked
men of the city surrounded the house. Pounding on the door, they said to the old man who owned the house, “Bring out the man who ca
me to your house, so we can have relations with him!”"
Judges 19:20 “Peace to you,” said the old man. “Let
me supply everything you need. Only do not spend the night in the square.”"
Judges 19:19 even though there is both straw and feed for our donkeys, and bread and wine for
me and the maidservant and young man with
me. There is nothing that we, your servants, lack.”"
Judges 19:18 The Levite replied, “We are traveling from Bethlehem in Judah to the remote hill country of Ephraim, where I am from. I went to Bethlehem in Judah, and now I am going to the house of the LORD; but no one has taken
me into his ho
me,"
Judges 19:17 When he looked up and saw the traveler in the city square, the old man asked, “Where are you going, and where have you co
me from?”"
Judges 19:16 That evening an old man from the hill country of Ephraim, who was residing in Gibeah (the
men of that place were Benjamites), ca
me in from his work in the field.
Judges 19:15 They stopped to go in and lodge in Gibeah. The Levite went in and sat down in the city square, but no one would take them into his ho
me for the night.
Judges 19:13 He continued, “Co
me, let us try to reach one of these towns to spend the night in Gibeah or Ramah.”"
Judges 19:9 When the man got up to depart with his concubine and his servant, his father-in-law, the girl’s father, said to him, “Look, the day is drawing to a close. Please spend the night. See, the day is almost over. Spend the night here, that your heart may be
merry. Then you can get up early tomorrow for your journey ho
me.”"
Judges 19:6 So they sat down and the two of them ate and drank together. Then the girl’s father said to the man, “Please agree to stay overnight and let your heart be
merry.”"
Judges 19:3 her husband got up and went after her to speak kindly to her and bring her back, taking his servant and a pair of donkeys. So the girl brought him into her father’s house, and when her father saw him, he gladly welco
med him."
Judges 18:31 So they set up for themselves Micah’s graven image, and it was there the whole ti
me the house of God was in Shiloh."
Judges 18:29 They na
med it Dan, after their forefather Dan, who was born to Israel—though the city was for
merly na
med Laish."
Judges 18:26 So the Danites went on their way, and Micah turned to go back ho
me, because he saw that they were too strong for him.
Judges 18:25 The Danites said to him, “Do not raise your voice against us, or angry
men will attack you, and you and your family will lose your lives.”"
Judges 18:24 He replied, “You took the gods I had made, and my priest, and went away. What else do I have? How can you say to
me, ‘What is the matter with you?’”"
Judges 18:22 After they were so
me distance from Micah’s house, the
men in the houses near Micah’s house mobilized and overtook the Danites."
Judges 18:19 “Be quiet,” they told him. “Put your hand over your mouth and co
me with us and be a father and a priest to us. Is it better for you to be a priest for the house of one person or a priest for a tribe and family in Israel?”"
Judges 18:17 And the five
men who had gone to spy out the land went inside and took the graven image, the ephod, the household idols, and the molten idol, while the priest stood at the entrance of the gate with the six hundred ar
med
men.
Judges 18:16 The six hundred Danites stood at the entrance of the gate, ar
med with their weapons of war.
Judges 18:15 So they turned aside there and went to the ho
me of the young Levite, the house of Micah, and greeted him.
Judges 18:14 Then the five
men who had gone to spy out the land of Laish said to their brothers, “Did you know that one of these houses has an ephod, household gods, a graven image, and a molten idol? Now think about what you should do.”"
Judges 18:13 And from there they traveled to the hill country of Ephraim and ca
me to Micah’s house."
Judges 18:11 So six hundred Danites departed from Zorah and Eshtaol, ar
med with weapons of war.
Judges 18:10 When you enter, you will co
me to an unsuspecting people and a spacious land, for God has delivered it into your hand. It is a place where nothing on earth is lacking.”"
Judges 18:9 They answered, “Co
me on, let us go up against them, for we have seen the land, and it is very good. Why would you fail to act? Do not hesitate to go there and take possession of the land!"
Judges 18:8 When the
men returned to Zorah and Eshtaol, their brothers asked them, “What did you find?”"
Judges 18:7 So the five
men departed and ca
me to Laish, where they saw that the people were living securely, like the Sidonians, tranquil and unsuspecting. There was nothing lacking in the land and no oppressive ruler. And they were far away from the Sidonians and had no alliance with anyone.
Judges 18:4 “Micah has done this and that for
me,” he replied, “and he has hired
me to be his priest.”"
Judges 18:2 So the Danites sent out five
men from their clans,
men of valor from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and explore it. “Go and explore the land,” they told them. The
men entered the hill country of Ephraim and ca
me to the house of Micah, where they spent the night."
Judges 18:1 In those days there was no king in Israel, and the tribe of the Danites was looking for territory to occupy. For up to that ti
me they had not co
me into an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.
Judges 17:13 Then Micah said, “Now I know that the LORD will be good to
me, because a Levite has beco
me my priest.”"
Judges 17:12 Micah ordained the Levite, and the young man beca
me his priest and lived in his house.
Judges 17:11 and agreed to stay with him, and the young man beca
me like a son to Micah.
Judges 17:10 “Stay with
me,” Micah said to him, “and be my father and priest, and I will give you ten shekels of silver per year, a suit of clothes, and your provisions.” So the Levite went in"
Judges 17:8 This man left the city of Bethlehem in Judah to settle where he could find a place. And as he traveled, he ca
me to Micah’s house in the hill country of Ephraim."
Judges 17:5 Now this man Micah had a shrine, and he made an ephod and so
me household idols, and ordained one of his sons as his priest.
Judges 17:2 said to his mother, “The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you and about which I heard you utter a curse—I have the silver here with
me; I took it.” Then his mother said, “Blessed be my son by the LORD!”"
Judges 17:1 Now a man na
med Micah from the hill country of Ephraim
Judges 16:31 Then Samson’s brothers and his father’s family ca
me down, carried him back, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the tomb of his father Manoah. And he had judged Israel twenty years."
Judges 16:30 Samson said, “Let
me die with the Philistines.” Then he pushed with all his might, and the temple fell on the lords and all the people in it. So in his death he killed more than he had killed in his life."
Judges 16:28 Then Samson called out to the LORD: “O Lord GOD, please re
member
me. Strengthen
me, O God, just once more, so that with one vengeful blow I may pay back the Philistines for my two eyes.”"
Judges 16:27 Now the temple was full of
men and wo
men; all the lords of the Philistines were there, and about three thousand
men and wo
men were on the roof watching Samson entertain them.
Judges 16:26 Samson said to the servant who held his hand, “Lead
me where I can feel the pillars supporting the temple, so I can lean against them.”"
Judges 16:25 And while their hearts were
merry, they said, “Call for Samson to entertain us.” So they called Samson out of the prison to entertain them. And they stationed him between the pillars."
Judges 16:18 When Delilah realized that he had revealed to her all that was in his heart, she sent this
message to the lords of the Philistines: “Co
me up once more, for he has revealed to
me all that is in his heart.” Then the lords of the Philistines ca
me to her, bringing the money in their hands."
Judges 16:17 Samson told her all that was in his heart: “My hair has never been cut, because I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaved, my strength will leave
me, and I will beco
me as weak as any other man.”"
Judges 16:15 “How can you say, ‘I love you,’” she asked, “when your heart is not with
me? This is the third ti
me you have mocked
me and failed to reveal to
me the source of your great strength!”"
Judges 16:13 Then Delilah said to Samson, “You have mocked
me and lied to
me all along! Tell
me how you can be tied up.” He told her, “If you weave the seven braids of my head into the web of a loom and tighten it with a pin, I will beco
me as weak as any other man.”"
Judges 16:12 So Delilah took new ropes, tied him up with them, and called out, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” But while the
men were hidden in her room, he snapped the ropes off his arms like they were threads."
Judges 16:11 He replied, “If they tie
me up with new ropes that have never been used, I will beco
me as weak as any other man.”"
Judges 16:10 Then Delilah said to Samson, “You have mocked
me and lied to
me! Now please tell
me how you can be tied up.”"
Judges 16:9 While the
men were hidden in her room, she called out, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” But he snapped the bowstrings like a strand of yarn seared by a fla
me. So the source of his strength remained unknown."
Judges 16:7 Samson told her, “If they tie
me up with seven fresh bowstrings that have not been dried, I will beco
me as weak as any other man.”"
Judges 16:6 So Delilah said to Samson, “Please tell
me the source of your great strength and how you can be tied up and subdued.”"
Judges 16:4 So
me ti
me later, Samson fell in love with a woman in the Valley of Sorek, whose na
me was Delilah.
Judges 15:19 So God opened up the hollow place in Lehi, and water ca
me out of it. When Samson drank, his strength returned, and he was revived. That is why he na
med it En-hakkore, and it remains in Lehi to this day.
Judges 15:17 And when Samson had finished speaking, he cast the jawbone from his hand; and he na
med that place Ramath-lehi.
Judges 15:16 Then Samson said: “With the jawbone of a donkey I have piled them into heaps. With the jawbone of a donkey I have slain a thousand
men.”"
Judges 15:15 He found the fresh jawbone of a donkey, reached out his hand and took it, and struck down a thousand
men.
Judges 15:14 When Samson arrived in Lehi, the Philistines ca
me out shouting against him. And the Spirit of the LORD ca
me mightily upon him. The ropes on his arms beca
me like burnt flax, and the bonds broke loose from his hands.
Judges 15:12 But they said to him, “We have co
me down to arrest you and hand you over to the Philistines.” Samson replied, “Swear to
me that you will not kill
me yourselves.”"
Judges 15:11 In response, three thousand
men of Judah went to the cave at the rock of Etam, and they asked Samson, “Do you not realize that the Philistines rule over us? What have you done to us?” “I have done to them what they did to
me,” he replied."
Judges 15:10 “Why have you attacked us?” said the
men of Judah. The Philistines replied, “We have co
me to arrest Samson and pay him back for what he has done to us.”"
Judges 15:3 Samson said to them, “This ti
me I will be bla
meless in doing harm to the Philistines.”"
Judges 15:2 “I was sure that you thoroughly hated her,” said her father, “so I gave her to one of the
men who accompanied you. Is not her younger sister more beautiful than she? Please take her instead.”"
Judges 15:1 Later on, at the ti
me of the wheat harvest, Samson took a young goat and went to visit his wife. “I want to go to my wife in her room,” he said. But her father would not let him enter."
Judges 14:20 and his wife was given to one of the
men who had accompanied him.
Judges 14:19 Then the Spirit of the LORD ca
me mightily upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, killed thirty of their
men, took their apparel, and gave their clothes to those who had solved the riddle. And burning with anger, Samson returned to his father’s house,"
Judges 14:18 Before sunset on the seventh day, the
men of the city said to Samson: “What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a lion?” So he said to them: “If you had not plowed with my heifer, you would not have solved my riddle!”"
Judges 14:16 Then Samson’s wife ca
me to him, weeping, and said, “You hate
me! You do not really love
me! You have posed to my people a riddle, but have not explained it to
me.” “Look,” he said, “I have not even explained it to my father or mother, so why should I explain it to you?”"
Judges 14:14 So he said to them: “Out of the eater ca
me so
mething to eat, and out of the strong ca
me so
mething sweet.” For three days they were unable to explain the riddle."
Judges 14:13 But if you cannot solve it, you must give
me thirty linen gar
ments and thirty sets of clothes.” “Tell us your riddle,” they replied. “Let us hear it.”"
Judges 14:12 “Let
me tell you a riddle,” Samson said to them. “If you can solve it for
me within the seven days of the feast, I will give you thirty linen gar
ments and thirty sets of clothes."
Judges 14:11 And when the Philistines saw him, they selected thirty
men to accompany him.
Judges 14:9 So he scooped so
me honey into his hands and ate it as he went along. And when he returned to his father and mother, he gave so
me to them and they ate it. But he did not tell them that he had taken the honey from the lion’s carcass."
Judges 14:6 and the Spirit of the LORD ca
me powerfully upon him, and he tore the lion apart with his bare hands as one would tear a young goat. But he did not tell his father or mother what he had done.
Judges 14:5 Then Samson went down to Timnah with his father and mother and ca
me to the vineyards of Timnah. Suddenly a young lion ca
me roaring at him,
Judges 14:4 (Now his father and mother did not know this was from the LORD, who was seeking an occasion to move against the Philistines; for at that ti
me the Philistines were ruling over Israel.)
Judges 14:3 But his father and mother replied, “Can’t you find a young woman among your relatives or among any of our people? Must you go to the uncircumcised Philistines to get a wife?” But Samson told his father, “Get her for
me, for she is pleasing to my eyes.”"
Judges 14:2 So he returned and told his father and mother, “I have seen a daughter of the Philistines in Timnah. Now get her for
me as a wife.”"
Judges 13:24 So the woman gave birth to a son and na
med him Samson. The boy grew, and the LORD blessed him.
Judges 13:20 When the fla
me went up from the altar to the sky, the angel of the LORD ascended in the fla
me. When Manoah and his wife saw this, they fell facedown to the ground.
Judges 13:18 “Why do you ask my na
me,” said the angel of the LORD, “since it is beyond comprehension?”"
Judges 13:17 Then Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, “What is your na
me, so that we may honor you when your word co
mes to pass?”"
Judges 13:14 She must not eat anything that co
mes from the vine, nor drink any wine or strong drink, nor eat anything unclean. She must do everything I have commanded her.”"
Judges 13:12 Then Manoah asked, “When your words co
me to pass, what will be the boy’s rule of life and mission?”"
Judges 13:11 So Manoah got up and followed his wife. When he ca
me to the man, he asked, “Are you the man who spoke to my wife?” “I am,” he said."
Judges 13:10 The woman ran quickly to tell her husband, “Behold, the man who ca
me to
me the other day has reappeared!”"
Judges 13:8 Then Manoah prayed to the LORD, “Please, O Lord, let the man of God You sent us co
me to us again to teach us how to raise the boy who is to be born.”"
Judges 13:7 But he said to
me, ‘Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son. Now, therefore, do not drink wine or strong drink, and do not eat anything unclean, because the boy will be a Nazirite to God from the womb until the day of his death.’”"
Judges 13:6 So the woman went and told her husband, “A man of God ca
me to
me. His appearance was like the angel of God, exceedingly aweso
me. I did not ask him where he ca
me from, and he did not tell
me his na
me."
Judges 13:5 For behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son. And no razor shall co
me over his head, because the boy will be a Nazirite to God from the womb, and he will begin the deliverance of Israel from the hand of the Philistines.”"
Judges 13:2 Now there was a man from Zorah na
med Manoah, from the clan of the Danites, whose wife was barren and had no children.
Judges 12:9 He had thirty sons, as well as thirty daughters whom he gave in marriage to
men outside his clan; and for his sons he brought back thirty wives from elsewhere. Ibzan judged Israel seven years.
Judges 12:6 they told him, “Please say Shibboleth.” If he said, “Sibboleth,” because he could not pronounce it correctly, they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. So at that ti
me 42,000 Ephraimites were killed."
Judges 12:5 The Gileadites captured the fords of the Jordan leading to Ephraim, and whenever a fugitive from Ephraim would say, “Let
me cross over,” the Gileadites would ask him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he answered, “No,”"
Judges 12:4 Jephthah then gathered all the
men of Gilead and fought against Ephraim. And the
men of Gilead struck them down because the Ephraimites had said, “You Gileadites are fugitives in Ephraim, living in the territories of Ephraim and Manasseh.”"
Judges 12:3 When I saw that you would not save
me, I risked my life and crossed over to the Ammonites, and the LORD delivered them into my hand. Why then have you co
me today to fight against
me?”"
Judges 12:2 But Jephthah replied, “My people and I had a serious conflict with the Ammonites, and when I called, you did not save
me out of their hands."
Judges 12:1 Then the
men of Ephraim assembled and crossed the Jordan to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah, “Why have you crossed over to fight the Ammonites without calling us to go with you? We will burn your house down with you inside!”"
Judges 11:40 that each year the young wo
men of Israel go out for four days to la
ment the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite.
Judges 11:39 After two months, she returned to her father, and he did to her as he had vowed. And she had never had relations with a man. So it has beco
me a custom in Israel
Judges 11:37 She also said to her father, “Let
me do this one thing: Let
me wander for two months through the mountains with my friends and mourn my virginity.”"
Judges 11:36 “My father,” she replied, “you have given your word to the LORD. Do to
me as you have said, for the LORD has avenged you of your enemies, the Ammonites.”"
Judges 11:35 As soon as Jephthah saw her, he tore his clothes and said, “No! Not my daughter! You have brought
me to my knees! You have brought great misery upon
me, for I have given my word to the LORD and cannot take it back.”"
Judges 11:34 And when Jephthah returned ho
me to Mizpah, there was his daughter coming out to
meet him with tambourines and dancing! She was his only child; he had no son or daughter besides her.
Judges 11:31 then whatever co
mes out the door of my house to greet
me on my triumphant return from the Ammonites will belong to the LORD, and I will offer it up as a burnt offering.”"
Judges 11:29 Then the Spirit of the LORD ca
me upon Jephthah, and he passed through Gilead and Manasseh, then through Mizpah of Gilead. And from there he advanced against the Ammonites.
Judges 11:28 But the king of the Ammonites paid no heed to the
message Jephthah sent him.
Judges 11:27 I have not sinned against you, but you have done
me wrong by waging war against
me. May the LORD, the Judge, decide today between the Israelites and the Ammonites.”"
Judges 11:26 For three hundred years Israel has lived in Heshbon, Aroer, and their villages, as well as all the cities along the banks of the Arnon. Why did you not take them back during that ti
me?
Judges 11:19 And Israel sent
messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon, and said to him, ‘Please let us pass through your land into our own place.’"
Judges 11:18 Then Israel traveled through the wilderness and bypassed the lands of Edom and Moab. They ca
me to the east side of the land of Moab and camped on the other side of the Arnon. But they did not enter the territory of Moab, since the Arnon was its border.
Judges 11:17 Then Israel sent
messengers to the king of Edom, saying, ‘Please let us pass through your land,’ but the king of Edom would not listen. They also sent
messengers to the king of Moab, but he would not consent. So Israel stayed in Kadesh."
Judges 11:16 But when Israel ca
me up out of Egypt, they traveled through the wilderness to the Red Sea and ca
me to Kadesh.
Judges 11:14 Jephthah again sent
messengers to the king of the Ammonites
Judges 11:13 The king of the Ammonites answered Jephthah’s
messengers, “When Israel ca
me up out of Egypt, they seized my land, from the Arnon to the Jabbok and all the way to the Jordan. Now, therefore, restore it peaceably.”"
Judges 11:12 Then Jephthah sent
messengers to the king of the Ammonites, saying, “What do you have against
me that you have co
me to fight against my land?”"
Judges 11:9 But Jephthah asked them, “If you take
me back to fight the Ammonites and the LORD gives them to
me, will I really be your leader?”"
Judges 11:8 They answered Jephthah, “This is why we now turn to you, that you may go with us, fight the Ammonites, and beco
me leader over all of us who live in Gilead.”"
Judges 11:7 Jephthah replied to the elders of Gilead, “Did you not hate
me and expel
me from my father’s house? Why then have you co
me to
me now, when you are in distress?”"
Judges 11:6 “Co
me,” they said, “be our commander, so that we can fight against the Ammonites.”"
Judges 11:4 So
me ti
me later, when the Ammonites fought against Israel
Judges 11:3 So Jephthah fled from his brothers and settled in the land of Tob, where worthless
men gathered around him and traveled with him.
Judges 10:14 Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you in your ti
me of trouble.”"
Judges 10:13 But you have forsaken
Me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you.
Judges 10:12 Sidonians, Amalekites, and Maonites oppressed you and you cried out to
Me, did I not save you from their hands?
Judges 10:1 After the ti
me of Abi
melech, a man of Issachar, Tola son of Puah, the son of Dodo, rose up to save Israel. He lived in Shamir, in the hill country of Ephraim.
Judges 9:57 And God also brought all the wickedness of the
men of Shechem back upon their own heads. So the curse of Jotham son of Jerubbaal ca
me upon them.
Judges 9:56 In this way God repaid the wickedness that Abi
melech had done to his father in murdering his seventy brothers.
Judges 9:55 And when the Israelites saw that Abi
melech was dead, they all went ho
me.
Judges 9:54 He quickly called his armor-bearer, saying, “Draw your sword and kill
me, lest they say of
me, ‘A woman killed him.’” So Abi
melech’s armor-bearer ran his sword through him, and he died."
Judges 9:53 But a woman dropped an upper millstone on Abi
melech’s head, crushing his skull."
Judges 9:52 When Abi
melech ca
me to attack the tower, he approached its entrance to set it on fire.
Judges 9:51 But there was a strong tower inside the city, and all the
men, wo
men, and leaders of the city fled there. They locked themselves in and went up to the roof of the tower.
Judges 9:50 Then Abi
melech went to Thebez, encamped against it, and captured it.
Judges 9:49 So each man also cut his own branch and followed Abi
melech. Then they piled the branches against the inner chamber and set it on fire above them, killing everyone in the tower of Shechem, about a thousand
men and wo
men.
Judges 9:48 he and all his
men went up to Mount Zalmon. Abi
melech took his axe in his hand and cut a branch from the trees, which he lifted to his shoulder, saying to his
men, “Hurry and do what you have seen
me do.”"
Judges 9:47 And when Abi
melech was told that all the leaders in the tower of Shechem were gathered there,
Judges 9:45 And all that day Abi
melech fought against the city until he had captured it and killed its people. Then he demolished the city and sowed it with salt.
Judges 9:44 Then Abi
melech and the companies with him rushed forward and took their stand at the entrance of the city gate. The other two companies rushed against all who were in the fields and struck them down.
Judges 9:43 So he took his
men, divided them into three companies, and lay in wait in the fields. When he saw the people coming out of the city, he rose up against them and attacked them.
Judges 9:42 The next day the people of Shechem went out into the fields, and this was reported to Abi
melech.
Judges 9:41 Abi
melech stayed in Arumah, and Zebul drove Gaal and his brothers out of Shechem.
Judges 9:40 but Abi
melech pursued him, and Gaal fled before him. And many Shechemites fell wounded all the way to the entrance of the gate.
Judges 9:39 So Gaal went out before the leaders of Shechem and fought against Abi
melech,
Judges 9:38 “Where is your gloating now?” Zebul replied. “You said, ‘Who is Abi
melech that we should serve him?’ Are these not the people you ridiculed? Go out now and fight them!”"
Judges 9:36 When Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, “Look, people are coming down from the mountains!” But Zebul replied, “The shadows of the mountains look like
men to you.”"
Judges 9:35 Now Gaal son of Ebed went out and stood at the entrance of the city gate just as Abi
melech and his
men ca
me out from their hiding places.
Judges 9:34 So Abi
melech and all his troops set out by night and lay in wait against Shechem in four companies.
Judges 9:33 And in the morning at sunrise, get up and advance against the city. When Gaal and his
men co
me out against you, do to them whatever you are able.”"
Judges 9:32 Now then, tonight you and the people with you are to co
me and lie in wait in the fields.
Judges 9:31 So he covertly sent
messengers to Abi
melech to say, “Look, Gaal son of Ebed and his brothers have co
me to Shechem and are stirring up the city against you."
Judges 9:29 If only this people were under my authority, I would remove Abi
melech; I would say to him, ‘Muster your army and co
me out!’”"
Judges 9:28 Then Gaal son of Ebed said, “Who is Abi
melech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerubbaal, and is not Zebul his officer? You are to serve the
men of Hamor, the father of Shechem. Why should we serve Abi
melech?"
Judges 9:27 And after they had gone out into the fields, gathered grapes from their vineyards, and trodden them, they held a festival and went into the house of their god; and as they ate and drank, they cursed Abi
melech.
Judges 9:26 Meanwhile, Gaal son of Ebed ca
me with his brothers and crossed into Shechem, and the leaders of Shechem put their confidence in him.
Judges 9:25 The leaders of Shechem set up an ambush against Abi
melech on the hilltops, and they robbed all who passed by them on the road. So this was reported to Abi
melech.
Judges 9:24 in order that the cri
me against the seventy sons of Jerubbaal might co
me to justice and their blood be avenged on their brother Abi
melech and on the leaders of Shechem, who had helped him murder his brothers.
Judges 9:23 God sent a spirit of animosity between Abi
melech and the leaders of Shechem and caused them to treat Abi
melech deceitfully,
Judges 9:22 After Abi
melech had reigned over Israel for three years,
Judges 9:21 Then Jotham ran away, escaping to Beer, and he lived there for fear of his brother Abi
melech.
Judges 9:20 But if not, may fire co
me from Abi
melech and consu
me the leaders of Shechem and Beth-millo, and may fire co
me from the leaders of Shechem and Beth-millo and consu
me Abi
melech.”"
Judges 9:19 if you have acted faithfully and honestly toward Jerubbaal and his house this day, then may you rejoice in Abi
melech, and he in you.
Judges 9:18 but you have risen up against my father’s house this day and killed his seventy sons on a single stone, and you have made Abi
melech, the son of his maidservant, king over the leaders of Shechem because he is your brother—"
Judges 9:16 Now if you have acted faithfully and honestly in making Abi
melech king, if you have done well by Jerubbaal and his family, and if you have done to him as he deserves—"
Judges 9:15 But the thornbush replied, ‘If you really are anointing
me as king over you, co
me and find refuge in my shade. But if not, may fire co
me out of the thornbush and consu
me the cedars of Lebanon.’"
Judges 9:14 Finally all the trees said to the thornbush, ‘Co
me and reign over us.’"
Judges 9:12 Then the trees said to the grapevine, ‘Co
me and reign over us.’"
Judges 9:10 Then the trees said to the fig tree, ‘Co
me and reign over us.’"
Judges 9:7 When this was reported to Jotham, he climbed to the top of Mount Gerizim, raised his voice, and cried out: “Listen to
me, O leaders of Shechem, and may God listen to you."
Judges 9:6 Then all the leaders of Shechem and Beth-millo gathered beside the oak at the pillar in Shechem and proceeded to make Abi
melech their king.
Judges 9:4 So they gave him seventy shekels of silver from the temple of Baal-berith, with which Abi
melech hired so
me worthless and reckless
men to follow him.
Judges 9:3 And when his mother’s brothers spoke all these words about him in the presence of all the leaders of Shechem, their hearts were inclined to follow Abi
melech, for they said, “He is our brother.”"
Judges 9:2 “Please ask all the leaders of Shechem, ‘Is it better for you that seventy
men, all the sons of Jerubbaal, rule over you, or just one man?’ Re
member that I am your own flesh and blood.”"
Judges 9:1 Now Abi
melech son of Jerubbaal went to his mother’s brothers at Shechem and said to them and to all the clan of his mother,"
Judges 8:34 The Israelites failed to re
member the LORD their God who had delivered them from the hands of all their enemies on every side.
Judges 8:31 His concubine, who dwelt in Shechem, also bore him a son, and he na
med him Abi
melech.
Judges 8:29 and he—Jerubbaal son of Joash—returned ho
me and settled down."
Judges 8:27 From all this Gideon made an ephod, which he placed in Ophrah, his ho
metown. But soon all Israel prostituted themselves by worshiping it there, and it beca
me a snare to Gideon and his household.
Judges 8:26 The weight of the gold earrings he had requested was 1,700 shekels, in addition to the crescent orna
ments, the pendants, the purple gar
ments of the kings of Midian, and the chains from the necks of their ca
mels.
Judges 8:25 “We will give them gladly,” they replied. So they spread out a gar
ment, and each man threw an earring from his plunder onto it."
Judges 8:24 Then he added, “Let
me make a request of you, that each of you give
me an earring from his plunder.” (For the enemies had gold earrings because they were Ishmaelites.)"
Judges 8:21 Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, “Get up and kill us yourself, for as the man is, so is his strength.” So Gideon got up and killed Zebah and Zalmunna, and he took the crescent orna
ments from the necks of their ca
mels."
Judges 8:18 Next, Gideon asked Zebah and Zalmunna, “What kind of
men did you kill at Tabor?” “
Men like you,” they answered, “each one resembling the son of a king.”"
Judges 8:17 He also pulled down the tower of Penuel and killed the
men of the city.
Judges 8:16 Then he took the elders of the city, and using the thorns and briers of the wilderness, he disciplined the
men of Succoth.
Judges 8:15 And Gideon went to the
men of Succoth and said, “Here are Zebah and Zalmunna, about whom you taunted
me, saying, ‘Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna already in your possession, that we should give bread to your weary
men?’”"
Judges 8:14 There he captured a young man of Succoth and interrogated him. The young man wrote down for him the na
mes of the seventy-seven leaders and elders of Succoth.
Judges 8:10 Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor with their army of about fifteen thousand
men—all that were left of the armies of the people of the east. A hundred and twenty thousand swords
men had already fallen."
Judges 8:9 So Gideon told the
men of Penuel, “When I return in triumph, I will tear down this tower!”"
Judges 8:8 From there he went up to Penuel and asked the sa
me from them, but the
men of Penuel gave the sa
me response as the
men of Succoth.
Judges 8:5 So Gideon said to the
men of Succoth, “Please give my troops so
me bread, for they are exhausted, and I am still pursuing Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian.”"
Judges 8:4 Then Gideon and his three hundred
men ca
me to the Jordan and crossed it, exhausted yet still in pursuit.
Judges 8:1 Then the
men of Ephraim said to Gideon, “Why have you done this to us? Why did you fail to call us when you went to fight against Midian?” And they contended with him violently."
Judges 7:24 Gideon sent
messengers throughout the hill country of Ephraim to say, “Co
me down against the Midianites and seize the waters of the Jordan ahead of them as far as Beth-barah.” So all the
men of Ephraim were called out, and they captured the waters of the Jordan as far as Beth-barah."
Judges 7:23 Then the
men of Israel were called out from Naphtali, Asher, and all Manasseh, and they pursued the Midianites.
Judges 7:22 And when the three hundred rams’ horns sounded, the LORD set all the
men in the camp against one another with their swords. The army fled to Beth-shittah toward Zererah as far as the border of Abel-
meholah near Tabbath."
Judges 7:19 Gideon and the hundred
men with him reached the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just after the changing of the guard. They blew their horns and broke the jars that were in their hands.
Judges 7:18 When I and all who are with
me blow our horns, then you are also to blow your horns from all around the camp and shout, ‘For the LORD and for Gideon!’”"
Judges 7:17 “Watch
me and do as I do,” Gideon said. “When I co
me to the outskirts of the camp, do exactly as I do."
Judges 7:16 And he divided the three hundred
men into three companies and gave each man a ram’s horn in one hand and a large jar in the other, containing a torch."
Judges 7:13 And as Gideon arrived, a man was telling his friend about a dream. “Behold, I had a dream,” he said, “and I saw a loaf of barley bread co
me tumbling into the Midianite camp. It struck the tent so hard that the tent overturned and collapsed.”"
Judges 7:12 Now the Midianites, Amalekites, and all the other people of the east had settled in the valley like a swarm of locusts, and their ca
mels were as countless as the sand on the seashore.
Judges 7:11 and listen to what they are saying. Then your hands will be strengthened to attack the camp.” So he went with Purah his servant to the outposts where ar
med
men were guarding the camp."
Judges 7:8 So Gideon sent the rest of the Israelites to their tents but kept the three hundred
men, who took charge of the provisions and rams’ horns of the others. And the camp of Midian lay below him in the valley."
Judges 7:7 Then the LORD said to Gideon, “With the three hundred
men who lapped the water I will save you and deliver the Midianites into your hand. But all the others are to go ho
me.”"
Judges 7:6 And the number of those who lapped the water with their hands to their mouths was three hundred
men; all the others knelt to drink.
Judges 7:2 Then the LORD said to Gideon, “You have too many people for
Me to deliver Midian into their hands, lest Israel glorify themselves over
Me, saying, ‘My own hand has saved
me.’"
Judges 7:1 Early in the morning Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the
men with him camped beside the spring of Harod. And the camp of Midian was north of them in the valley near the hill of Moreh.
Judges 6:39 Then Gideon said to God, “Do not be angry with
me; let
me speak one more ti
me. Please allow
me one more test with the fleece. This ti
me let it be dry, and the ground covered with dew.”"
Judges 6:35 Calling them to arms, Gideon sent
messengers throughout Manasseh, as well as Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali, so that they ca
me up to
meet him.
Judges 6:34 So the Spirit of the LORD ca
me upon Gideon, who blew the ram’s horn and rallied the Abiezrites behind him."
Judges 6:30 Then the
men of the city said to Joash, “Bring out your son. He must die, because he has torn down Baal’s altar and cut down the Asherah pole beside it.”"
Judges 6:28 When the
men of the city got up in the morning, there was Baal’s altar torn down, with the Asherah pole cut down beside it and the second bull offered up on the newly built altar."
Judges 6:27 So Gideon took ten of his servants and did as the LORD had told him. But because he was too afraid of his father’s household and the
men of the city, he did it by night rather than in the dayti
me."
Judges 6:21 Then the angel of the LORD extended the tip of the staff that was in his hand and touched the
meat and the unleavened bread. And fire flared from the rock and consu
med the
meat and the unleavened bread. Then the angel of the LORD vanished from his sight.
Judges 6:20 And the angel of God said to him, “Take the
meat and the unleavened bread, lay them on this rock, and pour out the broth.” And Gideon did so."
Judges 6:19 So Gideon went in and prepared a young goat and unleavened bread and an ephah of flour. He placed the
meat in a basket and the broth in a pot and brought them out to present to Him under the oak.
Judges 6:18 Please do not depart from this place until I return to You. Let
me bring my offering and set it before You.” And the LORD said, “I will stay until you return.”"
Judges 6:17 Gideon answered, “If I have found favor in Your sight, give
me a sign that it is You speaking with
me."
Judges 6:11 Then the angel of the LORD ca
me and sat down under the oak in Ophrah that belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, where his son Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress to hide it from the Midianites.
Judges 6:10 And I said to you: ‘I am the LORD your God. You must not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell.’ But you did not obey
Me.”"
Judges 6:5 For the Midianites ca
me with their livestock and their tents like a great swarm of locusts. They and their ca
mels were innu
merable, and they entered the land to ravage it.
Judges 6:3 Whenever the Israelites would plant their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites, and other people of the east would co
me up and invade them,
Judges 5:30 ‘Are they not finding and dividing the spoil—a girl or two for each warrior, a plunder of dyed gar
ments for Sisera, the spoil of embroidered gar
ments for the neck of the looter?’"
Judges 5:28 Sisera’s mother looked through the window; she peered through the lattice and la
mented: ‘Why is his chariot so long in coming? What has delayed the clatter of his chariots?’"
Judges 5:26 She reached for the tent peg, her right hand for the workman’s ham
mer. She struck Sisera and crushed his skull; she shattered and pierced his temple."
Judges 5:24 Most blessed among wo
men is Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, most blessed of tent-dwelling wo
men.
Judges 5:23 ‘Curse
Meroz,’ says the angel of the LORD. ‘Bitterly curse her inhabitants; for they did not co
me to help the LORD, to help the LORD against the mighty.’"
Judges 5:19 Kings ca
me and fought; then the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach by the waters of
Megiddo, but they took no plunder of silver.
Judges 5:14 So
me ca
me from Ephraim, with their roots in Amalek; Benjamin ca
me with your people after you. The commanders ca
me down from Machir, the bearers of the marshal’s staff from Zebulun."
Judges 5:13 Then the survivors ca
me down to the nobles; the people of the LORD ca
me down to
me against the mighty.
Judges 5:8 When they chose new gods, then war ca
me to their gates. Not a shield or spear was found among forty thousand in Israel.
Judges 4:22 When Barak arrived in pursuit of Sisera, Jael went out to greet him and said to him, “Co
me, and I will show you the man you are seeking.” So he went in with her, and there lay Sisera dead, with a tent peg through his temple."
Judges 4:21 But as he lay sleeping from exhaustion, Heber’s wife Jael took a tent peg, grabbed a ham
mer, and went silently to Sisera. She drove the peg through his temple and into the ground, and he died."
Judges 4:20 “Stand at the entrance to the tent,” he said, “and if anyone co
mes and asks you, ‘Is there a man here?’ say, ‘No.’”"
Judges 4:19 Sisera said to her, “Please give
me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty.” So she opened a container of milk, gave him a drink, and covered him again."
Judges 4:18 Jael went out to greet Sisera and said to him, “Co
me in, my lord. Co
me in with
me. Do not be afraid.” So he entered her tent, and she covered him with a blanket."
Judges 4:17 Meanwhile, Sisera had fled on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, because there was peace between Jabin king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.
Judges 4:14 Then Deborah said to Barak, “Arise, for this is the day that the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand. Has not the LORD gone before you?” So Barak ca
me down from Mount Tabor with ten thousand
men following him."
Judges 4:13 he summoned all nine hundred of his iron chariots and all the
men with him, from Harosheth-hagoyim to the River Kishon.
Judges 4:10 where he summoned Zebulun and Naphtali. Ten thousand
men followed him, and Deborah also went with him.
Judges 4:8 Barak said to her, “If you will go with
me, I will go; but if you will not go with
me, I will not go.”"
Judges 4:6 She summoned Barak son of Abinoam from Kedesh in Naphtali and said to him, “Surely the LORD, the God of Israel, is commanding you: ‘Go and march to Mount Tabor, taking with you ten thousand
men of Naphtali and Zebulun."
Judges 4:5 And she would sit under the Palm of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim, where the Israelites would go up to her for judg
ment.
Judges 4:4 Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, was judging Israel at that ti
me.
Judges 3:31 After Ehud ca
me Shamgar son of Anath. And he too saved Israel, striking down six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad.
Judges 3:29 At that ti
me they struck down about ten thousand Moabites, all robust and valiant
men. Not one of them escaped.
Judges 3:28 “Follow
me,” he told them, “for the LORD has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand.” So they followed him down and seized the fords of the Jordan leading to Moab, and did not allow anyone to cross over."
Judges 3:27 On arriving in Seirah, he blew the ram’s horn throughout the hill country of Ephraim. The Israelites ca
me down with him from the hills, and he beca
me their leader."
Judges 3:25 So they waited until they beca
me worried and saw that he had still not opened the doors of the upper room. Then they took the key and opened the doors—and there was their lord lying dead on the floor."
Judges 3:24 After Ehud was gone, Eglon’s servants ca
me in and found the doors of the upper room locked. “He must be relieving himself in the cool room,” they said."
Judges 3:19 But upon reaching the idols near Gilgal, he himself turned back and said, “I have a secret
message for you, O king.” “Silence,” said the king, and all his attendants left him."
Judges 3:10 The Spirit of the LORD ca
me upon him, and he beca
me Israel’s judge and went out to war. And the LORD delivered Cushan-rishathaim king of Aram into the hand of Othniel, who prevailed against him."
Judges 3:4 These nations were left to test the Israelites, to find out whether they would keep the command
ments of the LORD, which He had given their fathers through Moses.
Judges 3:2 if only to teach warfare to the subsequent generations of Israel, especially to those who had not known it for
merly:
Judges 2:23 That is why the LORD had left those nations in place and had not driven them out im
mediately by delivering them into the hand of Joshua.
Judges 2:19 But when the judge died, the Israelites beca
me even more corrupt than their fathers, going after other gods to serve them and bow down to them. They would not give up their evil practices and stubborn ways.
Judges 2:17 Israel, however, did not listen to their judges. Instead, they prostituted themselves with other gods and bowed down to them. They quickly turned from the way of their fathers, who had walked in obedience to the LORD’s command
ments; they did not do as their fathers had done."
Judges 1:34 The Amorites forced the Danites into the hill country and did not allow them to co
me down into the plain.
Judges 1:33 Naphtali failed to drive out the inhabitants of Beth-she
mesh and Beth-anath. So the Naphtalites also lived among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land, but the inhabitants of Beth-she
mesh and Beth-anath served them as forced laborers.
Judges 1:28 When Israel beca
me stronger, they pressed the Canaanites into forced labor, but they never drove them out completely.
Judges 1:27 At that ti
me Manasseh failed to drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam,
Megiddo, and their villages; for the Canaanites were determined to dwell in that land.
Judges 1:26 And the man went to the land of the Hittites, built a city, and called it Luz, which is its na
me to this day.
Judges 1:23 They sent spies to Bethel (for
merly known as Luz),
Judges 1:17 Then the
men of Judah went with their brothers the Si
meonites, attacked the Canaanites living in Zephath, and devoted the city to destruction. So it was called Hormah.
Judges 1:16 Now the descendants of Moses’ father-in-law, the Kenite, went up with the
men of Judah from the City of Palms to the Wilderness of Judah in the Negev near Arad. They went to live among the people."
Judges 1:15 “Give
me a blessing,” she answered. “Since you have given
me land in the Negev, give
me springs of water as well.” So Caleb gave her both the upper and lower springs."
Judges 1:14 One day Acsah ca
me to Othniel and urged him to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you desire?”"
Judges 1:11 From there they marched against the inhabitants of Debir (for
merly known as Kiriath-sepher).
Judges 1:10 Judah also marched against the Canaanites who were living in Hebron (for
merly known as Kiriath-arba), and they struck down Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
Judges 1:9 Afterward, the
men of Judah marched down to fight against the Canaanites living in the hill country, in the Negev, and in the foothills.
Judges 1:8 Then the
men of Judah fought against Jerusalem and captured it. They put the city to the sword and set it on fire.
Judges 1:7 Then Adoni-bezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off have gathered the scraps under my table. As I have done to them, so God has repaid
me.” And they brought him to Jerusalem, where he died."
Judges 1:4 When Judah attacked, the LORD delivered the Canaanites and Perizzites into their hands, and they struck down ten thousand
men at Bezek.
Judges 1:3 Then the
men of Judah said to their brothers the Si
meonites, “Co
me up with us to our allotted territory, and let us fight against the Canaanites. And we likewise will go with you to your territory.” So the Si
meonites went with them."
Joshua 24:32 And the bones of Joseph, which the Israelites had brought up out of Egypt, were buried at Shechem in the plot of land that Jacob had purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver. So it beca
me an inheritance for Joseph’s descendants."
Joshua 24:29 So
me ti
me later, Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at the age of 110.
Joshua 24:20 If you forsake the LORD and serve foreign gods, He will turn and bring disaster on you and consu
me you, even after He has been good to you.”"
Joshua 24:17 For the LORD our God brought us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, and perfor
med these great signs before our eyes. He also protected us throughout our journey and among all the nations through which we traveled.
Joshua 24:15 But if it is unpleasing in your sight to serve the LORD, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. As for
me and my house, we will serve the LORD!”"
Joshua 24:11 After this, you crossed the Jordan and ca
me to Jericho. The people of Jericho fought against you, as did the Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites, and Jebusites, and I delivered them into your hand.
Joshua 24:7 So your fathers cried out to the LORD, and He put darkness between you and the Egyptians, over whom He brought the sea and engulfed them. Your very eyes saw what I did to the Egyptians. Then you lived in the wilderness for a long ti
me.
Joshua 24:6 When I brought your fathers out of Egypt and you reached the Red Sea, the Egyptians pursued them with chariots and horse
men as far as the Red Sea.
Joshua 23:15 But just as every good thing the LORD your God promised you has co
me to pass, likewise the LORD will bring upon you the calamity He has threatened, until He has destroyed you from this good land He has given you.
Joshua 23:13 know for sure that the LORD your God will no longer drive out these nations before you. Instead, they will beco
me for you a snare and a trap, a scourge in your sides and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from this good land that the LORD your God has given you.
Joshua 23:7 So you are not to associate with these nations that remain among you. You must not call on the na
mes of their gods or swear by them, and you must not serve them or bow down to them.
Joshua 23:1 A long ti
me after the LORD had given Israel rest from all the enemies around them, when Joshua was old and well along in years,
Joshua 22:34 So the Reubenites and Gadites na
med the altar Witness, for they said, “It is a witness between us that the LORD is God.”"
Joshua 22:27 Rather, let it be a witness between us and you and the generations to co
me, that we will worship the LORD in His presence with our burnt offerings, sacrifices, and peace offerings.’ Then in the future, your descendants cannot say to ours, ‘You have no share in the LORD!’"
Joshua 22:10 And when they ca
me to Geliloth near the Jordan in the land of Canaan, the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh built an imposing altar there by the Jordan.
Joshua 22:8 saying, “Return to your ho
mes with your great wealth, with im
mense herds of livestock, with silver, gold, bronze, iron, and very many clothes. Divide with your brothers the spoil of your enemies.”"
Joshua 22:7 (To the half-tribe of Manasseh Moses had given land in Bashan, and to the other half Joshua gave land on the west side of the Jordan among their brothers.) When Joshua sent them to their ho
mes he blessed them,
Joshua 22:6 So Joshua blessed them and sent them on their way, and they went to their ho
mes.
Joshua 22:5 But be very careful to observe the command
ment and the law that Moses the servant of the LORD gave you: to love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways, to keep His command
ments, to hold fast to Him, and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul.”"
Joshua 22:4 And now that the LORD your God has given your brothers rest as He promised them, you may return to your ho
mes in the land that Moses the servant of the LORD gave you across the Jordan.
Joshua 22:3 All this ti
me you have not deserted your brothers, up to this very day, but have kept the charge given you by the LORD your God.
Joshua 21:40 In all, twelve cities were allotted to the clans of
Merari, the remaining Levite clans.
Joshua 21:37 Kedemoth, and
Mephaath—four cities, together with their pasturelands."
Joshua 21:34 This is what the
Merarite clan (the rest of the Levites) were given: From the tribe of Zebulun they were given Jokneam, Kartah,
Joshua 21:16 Ain, Juttah, and Beth-she
mesh—nine cities from these two tribes, together with their pasturelands."
Joshua 21:9 From the tribes of Judah and Si
meon, they designated these cities by na
me Joshua 21:7 And the descendants of
Merari received twelve cities from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Zebulun.
Joshua 21:4 The first lot ca
me out for the Kohathite clans. The Levites who were descendants of Aaron the priest received thirteen cities by lot from the tribes of Judah, Si
meon, and Benjamin.
Joshua 20:6 He is to stay in that city until he stands trial before the assembly and until the death of the high priest serving at that ti
me. Then the manslayer may return to his own ho
me in the city from which he fled.”"
Joshua 20:4 When so
meone flees to one of these cities, stands at the entrance of the city gate, and states his case before its elders, they are to bring him into the city and give him a place to live among them.
Joshua 19:51 These are the inheritances that Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the families distributed by lot to the tribes of Israel at Shiloh before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting. So they finished dividing up the land.
Joshua 19:47 (Later, when the territory of the Danites was lost to them, they went up and fought against Leshem, captured it, and put it to the sword. So they took possession of Leshem, settled there, and rena
med it after their father Dan.)
Joshua 19:46 Me-jarkon, and Rakkon, including the territory across from Joppa.
Joshua 19:41 The territory of their inheritance included Zorah, Eshtaol, Ir-she
mesh,
Joshua 19:40 The seventh lot ca
me out for the clans of the tribe of Dan:
Joshua 19:38 Iron, Migdal-el, Horem, Beth-anath, and Beth-she
mesh. There were nineteen cities, along with their villages.
Joshua 19:32 The sixth lot ca
me out for the clans of the tribe of Naphtali:
Joshua 19:29 The border then turned back toward Ramah as far as the fortified city of Tyre, turned toward Hosah, and ca
me out at the Sea in the region of Achzib,
Joshua 19:27 then turned eastward toward Beth-dagon, touched Zebulun and the Valley of Iphtah-el, and went north to Beth-e
mek and Neiel, passing Cabul on the left.
Joshua 19:26 Allam
melech, Amad, and Mishal. On the west the border touched Car
mel and Shihor-libnath,
Joshua 19:24 The fifth lot ca
me out for the clans of the tribe of Asher:
Joshua 19:22 The border reached Tabor, Shahazumah, and Beth-she
mesh, and ended at the Jordan. There were sixteen cities, along with their villages.
Joshua 19:17 The fourth lot ca
me out for the clans of the tribe of Issachar:
Joshua 19:11 It went up westward to Maralah, reached Dabbesheth, and
met the brook east of Jokneam.
Joshua 19:10 The third lot ca
me up for the clans of the tribe of Zebulun: The border of their inheritance stretched as far as Sarid.
Joshua 19:9 The inheritance of the Si
meonites was taken from the territory of Judah, because the share for Judah’s descendants was too large for them. So the Si
meonites received an inheritance within Judah’s portion."
Joshua 19:8 and all the villages surrounding these cities as far as Baalath-beer (Ramah of the Negev). This was the inheritance of the clans of the tribe of Si
meon.
Joshua 19:1 The second lot ca
me out for the clans of the tribe of Si
meon: Their inheritance lay within the territory of Judah
Joshua 18:21 These were the cities of the clans of the tribe of Benjamin: Jericho, Beth-hoglah, E
mek-keziz,
Joshua 18:19 The border continued to the northern slope of Beth-hoglah and ca
me out at the northern bay of the Salt Sea, at the mouth of the Jordan. This was the southern border.
Joshua 18:17 From there it curved northward and proceeded to En-she
mesh and on to Geliloth facing the Ascent of Adummim, and continued down to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.
Joshua 18:14 On the west side the border curved southward from the hill facing Beth-horon on the south and ca
me out at Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim), a city of the sons of Judah. This was the western side.
Joshua 18:12 On the north side their border began at the Jordan, went up past the northern slope of Jericho, headed west through the hill country, and ca
me out at the wilderness of Beth-aven.
Joshua 18:11 The first lot ca
me up for the clans of the tribe of Benjamin. Their allotted territory lay between the tribes of Judah and Joseph:
Joshua 18:9 So the
men departed and went throughout the land, mapping it city by city into seven portions. Then they returned with the docu
ment to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh.
Joshua 18:8 As the
men got up to go out, Joshua commanded them to map out the land, saying, “Go and survey the land, map it out, and return to
me. Then I will cast lots for you here in Shiloh in the presence of the LORD.”"
Joshua 18:6 When you have mapped out the seven portions of land and brought it to
me, I will cast lots for you here in the presence of the LORD our God.
Joshua 18:4 Appoint three
men from each tribe, and I will send them out to survey the land and map it out, according to the inheritance of each. Then they will return to
me Joshua 18:1 Then the whole congregation of Israel assembled at Shiloh and set up the Tent of
Meeting there. And though the land was subdued before them,
Joshua 17:17 So Joshua said to the house of Joseph—to Ephraim and Manasseh—“You have many people and great strength. You shall not have just one allot
ment,"
Joshua 17:11 Within Issachar and Asher, Manasseh was assigned Beth-shean, Ibleam, Dor (that is, Naphath), Endor, Taanach, and
Megiddo, each with their surrounding settle
ments.
Joshua 17:7 Now the border of Manasseh went from Asher to Mich
methath near Shechem, then southward to include the inhabitants of En-tappuah.
Joshua 17:3 But Zelophehad son of Hepher (the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh) had no sons but only daughters. These are the na
mes of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
Joshua 17:2 So this allot
ment was for the rest of the descendants of Manasseh—the clans of Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These are the other male descendants of the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph."
Joshua 17:1 Now this was the allot
ment for the tribe of Manasseh as Joseph’s firstborn son, na
mely for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh and father of the Gileadites, who had received Gilead and Bashan because Machir was a man of war."
Joshua 16:7 From Janoah it went down to Ataroth and Naarah, and then reached Jericho and ca
me out at the Jordan.
Joshua 16:6 and out toward the Sea. From Mich
methath on the north it turned eastward toward Taanath-shiloh and passed by it to Janoah on the east.
Joshua 16:1 The allot
ment for the descendants of Joseph extended from the Jordan at Jericho to the waters of Jericho on the east, through the wilderness that goes up from Jericho into the hill country of Bethel.
Joshua 15:19 “Give
me a blessing,” she answered. “Since you have given
me land in the Negev, give
me springs of water as well.” So Caleb gave her both the upper and lower springs."
Joshua 15:18 One day Acsah ca
me to Othniel and urged him to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you desire?”"
Joshua 15:15 From there he marched against the inhabitants of Debir (for
merly known as Kiriath-sepher).
Joshua 15:10 The border curled westward from Baalah to Mount Seir, ran along the northern slope of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon), went down to Beth-she
mesh, and crossed to Timnah.
Joshua 15:7 Then the border went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, turning north to Gilgal, which faces the Ascent of Adummim south of the ravine. It continued along the waters of En-she
mesh and ca
me out at En-rogel.
Joshua 15:1 Now the allot
ment for the clans of the tribe of Judah extended to the border of Edom, to the Wilderness of Zin at the extre
me southern boundary:
Joshua 14:12 Now therefore give
me this hill country that the LORD promised
me on that day, for you yourself heard then that the Anakim were there, with great and fortified cities. Perhaps with the LORD’s help I will drive them out, as the LORD has spoken.”"
Joshua 14:11 still as strong today as I was the day Moses sent
me out. As my strength was then, so it is now for war, for going out, and for coming in.
Joshua 14:10 Now behold, as the LORD promised, He has kept
me alive these forty-five years since He spoke this word to Moses, while Israel wandered in the wilderness. So here I am today, eighty-five years old,
Joshua 14:9 On that day Moses swore to
me, saying, ‘Surely the land on which you have set foot will be an inheritance to you and your children forever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.’"
Joshua 14:8 Although my brothers who went with
me made the hearts of the people
melt with fear, I remained loyal to the LORD my God.
Joshua 14:7 I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent
me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, and I brought back to him an honest report.
Joshua 14:6 Then the sons of Judah approached Joshua at Gilgal, and Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, “You know what the LORD said to Moses the man of God at Kadesh-barnea about you and
me."
Joshua 14:4 The descendants of Joseph beca
me two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim. And no portion of the land was given to the Levites, except for cities in which to live, along with pasturelands for their flocks and herds.
Joshua 13:17 to Heshbon and all its cities on the plateau, including Dibon, Bamoth-baal, Beth-baal-
meon,
Joshua 13:16 The territory from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the middle of the valley, to the whole plateau beyond
Medeba,
Joshua 13:9 The area from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the middle of the valley, the whole plateau of
Medeba as far as Dibon,
Joshua 13:4 to the south, all the land of the Canaanites, from
Mearah of the Sidonians to Aphek, as far as the border of the Amorites;
Joshua 12:22 the king of Kedesh, one; the king of Jokneam in Car
mel, one;
Joshua 12:21 the king of Taanach, one; the king of
Megiddo, one;
Joshua 12:20 the king of Shimron-
meron, one; the king of Achshaph, one;
Joshua 12:7 And these are the kings of the land that Joshua and the Israelites conquered beyond the Jordan to the west, from Baal-gad in the Valley of Lebanon to Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir (according to the allot
ments to the tribes of Israel, Joshua gave them as an inheritance
Joshua 11:23 So Joshua took the entire land, in keeping with all that the LORD had spoken to Moses. And Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to the allot
ments to their tribes. Then the land had rest from war.
Joshua 11:21 At that ti
me Joshua proceeded to eliminate the Anakim from the hill country of Hebron, Debir, and Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah and of Israel. Joshua devoted them to destruction, along with their cities.
Joshua 11:20 For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts to engage Israel in battle, so that they would be set apart for destruction and would receive no
mercy, being annihilated as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Joshua 11:18 Joshua waged war against all these kings for a long period of ti
me.
Joshua 11:10 At that ti
me Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and put its king to the sword, because Hazor was for
merly the head of all these kingdoms.
Joshua 11:7 So by the waters of
Merom, Joshua and his whole army ca
me upon them suddenly and attacked them,
Joshua 11:6 Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for by this ti
me tomorrow I will deliver all of them slain before Israel. You are to hamstring their horses and burn up their chariots.”"
Joshua 11:5 All these kings joined forces and encamped at the waters of
Merom to fight against Israel.
Joshua 11:4 So these kings ca
me out with all their armies, a multitude as nu
merous as the sand on the seashore, along with a great number of horses and chariots.
Joshua 10:33 At that ti
me Horam king of Gezer went to help Lachish, but Joshua struck him down along with his people, leaving no survivors.
Joshua 10:24 When they had brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned all the
men of Israel and said to the army commanders who had accompanied him, “Co
me here and put your feet on the necks of these kings.” So the commanders ca
me forward and put their feet on their necks."
Joshua 10:22 Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and bring those five kings out to
me.”"
Joshua 10:18 So Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave, and post
men there to guard them."
Joshua 10:17 And Joshua was infor
med: “The five kings have been found; they are hiding in the cave at Makkedah.”"
Joshua 10:7 So Joshua and his whole army, including all the mighty
men of valor, ca
me from Gilgal.
Joshua 10:6 Then the
men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal: “Do not abandon your servants. Co
me quickly and save us! Help us, because all the kings of the Amorites from the hill country have joined forces against us.”"
Joshua 10:4 “Co
me up and help
me. We will attack Gibeon, because they have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.”"
Joshua 10:2 So Adoni-zedek and his people were greatly alar
med, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its
men were mighty.
Joshua 9:14 Then the
men of Israel sampled their provisions, but did not seek the counsel of the LORD.
Joshua 9:12 This bread of ours was warm when we packed it at ho
me on the day we left to co
me to you. But take a look, it is now dry and moldy.
Joshua 9:11 So the elders and inhabitants of our land told us, ‘Take provisions for your journey; go to
meet them and say to them: We are your servants. Please make a treaty with us.’"
Joshua 9:9 “Your servants have co
me from a very distant land,” they replied, “because of the fa
me of the LORD your God. For we have heard the reports about Him: all that He did in Egypt,"
Joshua 9:8 “We are your servants,” they said to Joshua. Then Joshua asked them, “Who are you and where have you co
me from?”"
Joshua 9:7 But the
men of Israel said to the Hivites, “Perhaps you dwell near us. How can we make a treaty with you?”"
Joshua 9:6 They went to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal and said to him and the
men of Israel, “We have co
me from a distant land; please make a treaty with us.”"
Joshua 9:4 acted deceptively and set out as envoys, carrying on their donkeys worn-out sacks and old wineskins, cracked and
mended.
Joshua 9:2 they ca
me together to wage war against Joshua and Israel.
Joshua 8:35 There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded that Joshua failed to read before the whole assembly of Israel, including the wo
men, the little ones, and the foreigners who lived among them.
Joshua 8:30 At that ti
me Joshua built an altar on Mount Ebal to the LORD, the God of Israel,
Joshua 8:25 A total of twelve thousand
men and wo
men fell that day—all the people of Ai."
Joshua 8:24 When Israel had finished killing all the
men of Ai who had pursued them into the field and wilderness, and when every last one of them had fallen by the sword, all the Israelites returned to Ai and put it to the sword as well.
Joshua 8:22 Meanwhile, those in the ambush ca
me out of the city against them, and the
men of Ai were trapped between the Israelite forces on both sides. So Israel struck them down until no survivor or fugitive remained.
Joshua 8:21 When Joshua and all Israel saw that the
men in ambush had captured the city and that smoke was rising from it, they turned around and struck down the
men of Ai.
Joshua 8:20 When the
men of Ai turned and looked back, the smoke of the city was rising into the sky. They could not escape in any direction, and the troops who had fled to the wilderness now beca
me the pursuers.
Joshua 8:19 and as soon as he did so, the
men in ambush rose quickly from their position. They rushed forward, entered the city, captured it, and im
mediately set it on fire.
Joshua 8:16 Then all the
men of Ai were summoned to pursue them, and they followed Joshua and were drawn away from the city.
Joshua 8:14 When the king of Ai saw the Israelites, he hurried out early in the morning with the
men of the city to engage them in battle at an appointed place overlooking the Arabah. But he did not know that an ambush had been set up against him behind the city.
Joshua 8:12 Now Joshua had taken about five thousand
men and set up an ambush between Bethel and Ai, to the west of the city.
Joshua 8:10 Joshua got up early the next morning and mobilized his
men, and he and the elders of Israel marched before them up to Ai.
Joshua 8:5 Then I and all the troops with
me will advance on the city. When they co
me out against us as they did the first ti
me, we will flee from them.
Joshua 8:3 So Joshua and the whole army set out to attack Ai. Joshua chose 30,000 mighty
men of valor and sent them out at night
Joshua 7:22 So Joshua sent
messengers who ran to the tent, and there it all was, hidden in his tent, with the silver underneath.
Joshua 7:19 So Joshua said to Achan, “My son, give glory to the LORD, the God of Israel, and make a confession to Him. I urge you to tell
me what you have done; do not hide it from
me.”"
Joshua 7:18 And he had the family of Zabdi co
me forward man by man, and Achan son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was selected.
Joshua 7:17 He had the clans of Judah co
me forward, and the clan of the Zerahites was selected. He had the clan of the Zerahites co
me forward, and the family of Zabdi was selected.
Joshua 7:16 So Joshua arose early the next morning and had Israel co
me forward tribe by tribe, and the tribe of Judah was selected.
Joshua 7:14 In the morning you must present yourselves tribe by tribe. The tribe that the LORD selects shall co
me forward clan by clan, and the clan that the LORD selects shall co
me forward family by family, and the family that the LORD selects shall co
me forward man by man.
Joshua 7:11 Israel has sinned; they have transgressed My covenant that I commanded them, and they have taken so
me of what was devoted to destruction. Indeed, they have stolen and lied, and they have put these things with their own possessions.
Joshua 7:9 When the Canaanites and all who live in the land hear about this, they will surround us and wipe out our na
me from the earth. Then what will You do for Your great na
me?”"
Joshua 7:5 And the
men of Ai struck down about thirty-six of them, chasing them from the gate as far as the quarries and striking them down on the slopes. So the hearts of the people
melted and beca
me like water.
Joshua 7:4 So about three thousand
men went up, but they fled before the
men of Ai.
Joshua 7:3 On returning to Joshua, they reported, “There is no need to send all the people; two or three thousand
men are enough to go up and attack Ai. Since the people of Ai are so few, you need not wear out all our people there.”"
Joshua 7:2 Meanwhile, Joshua sent
men from Jericho to Ai, which is near Beth-aven to the east of Bethel, and told them, “Go up and spy out the land.” So the
men went up and spied out Ai."
Joshua 7:1 The Israelites, however, acted unfaithfully regarding the things devoted to destruction. Achan son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took so
me of what was set apart. So the anger of the LORD burned against the Israelites.
Joshua 6:27 So the LORD was with Joshua, and his fa
me spread throughout the land.
Joshua 6:26 At that ti
me Joshua invoked this solemn oath: “Cursed before the LORD is the man who rises up and rebuilds this city, Jericho; at the cost of his firstborn he will lay its foundations; at the cost of his youngest he will set up its gates.”"
Joshua 6:25 And Joshua spared Rahab the prostitute, with her father’s household and all who belonged to her, because she hid the
men Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho. So she has lived among the Israelites to this day."
Joshua 6:22 Meanwhile, Joshua told the two
men who had spied out the land, “Go into the house of the prostitute and bring out the woman and all who are with her, just as you promised her.”"
Joshua 6:16 After the seventh ti
me around, the priests blew the horns, and Joshua commanded the people, “Shout! For the LORD has given you the city!"
Joshua 6:15 Then on the seventh day, they got up at dawn and marched around the city seven ti
mes in the sa
me manner. That was the only day they circled the city seven ti
mes.
Joshua 6:13 And the seven priests carrying seven rams’ horns kept marching ahead of the ark of the LORD and blowing the horns. The ar
med troops went in front of them and the rear guard followed the ark of the LORD, while the horns kept sounding."
Joshua 6:10 But Joshua had commanded the people: “Do not give a battle cry or let your voice be heard; do not let one word co
me out of your mouth until the day I tell you to shout. Then you are to shout!”"
Joshua 6:9 While the horns continued to sound, the ar
med troops marched ahead of the priests who blew the horns, and the rear guard followed the ark.
Joshua 6:7 And he told the people, “Advance and march around the city, with the ar
med troops going ahead of the ark of the LORD.”"
Joshua 6:4 Have seven priests carry seven rams’ horns in front of the ark. Then on the seventh day, march around the city seven ti
mes, while the priests blow the horns."
Joshua 6:3 March around the city with all the
men of war, circling the city one ti
me. Do this for six days.
Joshua 6:2 And the LORD said to Joshua, “Behold, I have delivered Jericho into your hand, along with its king and its mighty
men of valor."
Joshua 6:1 Now Jericho was tightly shut up because of the Israelites. No one went out and no one ca
me in.
Joshua 5:14 “Neither,” He replied. “I have now co
me as Commander of the LORD’s army.” Then Joshua fell facedown in reverence and asked Him, “What does my Lord have to say to His servant?”"
Joshua 5:7 And Joshua raised up their sons in their place, and these were the ones he circumcised. Until this ti
me they were still uncircumcised, since they had not been circumcised along the way.
Joshua 5:6 For the Israelites had wandered in the wilderness forty years, until all the nation’s
men of war who had co
me out of Egypt had died, since they did not obey the LORD. So the LORD vowed never to let them see the land He had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey."
Joshua 5:5 Though all who had co
me out were circumcised, none of those born in the wilderness on the journey from Egypt had been circumcised.
Joshua 5:4 Now this is why Joshua circumcised them: All those who ca
me out of Egypt—all the
men of war—had died on the journey in the wilderness after they had left Egypt."
Joshua 5:2 At that ti
me the LORD said to Joshua, “Make flint knives and circumcise the sons of Israel once again.”"
Joshua 5:1 Now when all the Amorite kings west of the Jordan and all the Canaanite kings along the coast heard how the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the Israelites until they had crossed over, their hearts
melted and their spirits failed for fear of the Israelites.
Joshua 4:21 Then Joshua said to the Israelites, “In the future, when your children ask their fathers, ‘What is the
meaning of these stones?’"
Joshua 4:18 When the priests carrying the ark of the covenant of the LORD ca
me up out of the Jordan and their feet touched the dry land, the waters of the Jordan returned to their course and overflowed all the banks as before.
Joshua 4:17 So Joshua commanded the priests, “Co
me up from the Jordan.”"
Joshua 4:16 “Command the priests who carry the ark of the Testimony to co
me up from the Jordan.”"
Joshua 4:13 About 40,000 troops ar
med for battle crossed over before the LORD into the plains of Jericho.
Joshua 4:12 The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh crossed over before the Israelites, ar
med for battle as Moses had instructed them.
Joshua 4:7 you are to tell them, ‘The waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD. When it crossed the Jordan, the waters were cut off.’ Therefore these stones will be a
memorial to the Israelites forever.”"
Joshua 4:6 to serve as a sign among you. In the future, when your children ask, ‘What do these stones
mean to you?’"
Joshua 4:4 So Joshua summoned the twelve
men he had appointed from the Israelites, one from each tribe,
Joshua 4:2 “Choose twelve
men from among the people, one from each tribe,"
Joshua 3:12 Now choose twelve
men from the tribes of Israel, one from each tribe.
Joshua 3:9 So Joshua told the Israelites, “Co
me here and listen to the words of the LORD your God.”"
Joshua 2:24 “The LORD has surely delivered the entire land into our hands,” they said to Joshua. “Indeed, all who dwell in the land are
melting in fear of us.”"
Joshua 2:23 Then the two
men started back, ca
me down from the hill country, and crossed the river. So they ca
me to Joshua son of Nun and reported all that had happened to them.
Joshua 2:17 The
men said to her, “We will not be bound by this oath you made us swear"
Joshua 2:14 “Our lives for your lives!” the
men agreed. “If you do not report our mission, we will show you kindness and faithfulness when the LORD gives us the land.”"
Joshua 2:12 Now therefore, please swear to
me by the LORD that you will indeed show kindness to my family, because I showed kindness to you. Give
me a sure sign
Joshua 2:11 When we heard this, our hearts
melted and everyone’s courage failed because of you, for the LORD your God is God in the heavens above and on the earth below."
Joshua 2:10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the waters of the Red Sea before you when you ca
me out of Egypt, and what you did to Sihon and Og, the two kings of the Amorites across the Jordan, whom you devoted to destruction.
Joshua 2:9 and said to them, “I know that the LORD has given you this land and that the fear of you has fallen on us, so that all who dwell in the land are
melting in fear of you."
Joshua 2:7 So the king’s
men set out in pursuit of the spies along the road to the fords of the Jordan, and as soon as they had gone out, the gate was shut."
Joshua 2:5 At dusk, when the gate was about to close, the
men went out, and I do not know which way they went. Pursue them quickly, and you may catch them!”"
Joshua 2:4 But the woman had taken the two
men and hidden them. So she said, “Yes, the
men did co
me to
me, but I did not know where they had co
me from."
Joshua 2:3 So the king of Jericho sent to Rahab and said, “Bring out the
men who ca
me to you and entered your house, for they have co
me to spy out the whole land.”"
Joshua 2:2 And it was reported to the king of Jericho: “Behold, so
me men of Israel have co
me here tonight to spy out the land.”"
Joshua 2:1 Then Joshua son of Nun secretly sent two spies from Shittim, saying, “Go, inspect the land, especially Jericho.” So they went and entered the house of a prostitute na
med Rahab and stayed there."
Joshua 1:14 Your wives, your young children, and your livestock may remain in the land that Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan. But all your mighty
men of valor must be ar
med for battle to cross over ahead of your brothers and help them,
Joshua 1:13 “Re
member what Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you when he said, ‘The LORD your God will give you rest, and He will give you this land.’"
Joshua 1:8 This Book of the Law must not depart from your mouth;
meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. For then you will prosper and succeed in all you do.
Deuteronomy 34:12 and no prophet who perfor

Deuteronomy 34:8 The Israelites grieved for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the ti

♫ Deuteronomy 33:8 Concerning Levi he said: “Give Your Thummim to Levi and Your Urim to Your godly one, whom You tested at Massah and contested at the waters of
Meribah."
♫ Deuteronomy 33:5 So the LORD beca

Deuteronomy 33:2 He said: “The LORD ca

Deuteronomy 32:51 For at the waters of
Meribah-kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin, both of you broke faith with
Me among the Israelites by failing to treat
Me as holy in their presence.
Deuteronomy 32:44 Then Moses ca
me with Joshua son of Nun and recited all the words of this song in the hearing of the people.
Deuteronomy 32:41 when I sharpen My flashing sword, and My hand grasps it in judg

Me.
Deuteronomy 32:39 See now that I am He; there is no God besides
Me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I heal, and there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
Deuteronomy 32:35 Vengeance is Mine; I will repay. In due ti
me their foot will slip; for their day of disaster is near, and their doom is coming quickly.”"
Deuteronomy 32:26 I would have said that I would cut them to pieces and blot out their

Deuteronomy 32:21 They have provoked My jealousy by that which is not God; they have enraged

Deuteronomy 10:5 and I went back down the mountain and placed the tablets in the ark I had made, as the LORD had commanded
me; and there they have remained.

me the two stone tablets, inscribed by the finger of God with the exact words that the LORD spoke to you out of the fire on the mountain on the day of the assembly.

Deuteronomy 7:7 The LORD did not set His affection on you and choose you because you were more nu

me.
Deuteronomy 5:15 Re

Deuteronomy 4:21 The LORD, however, was angry with
me on account of you, and He swore that I would not cross the Jordan to enter the good land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance.
Deuteronomy 4:14 At that ti
me the LORD commanded
me to teach you the statutes and ordinances you are to follow in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.

me out of the land of Egypt:"
Numbers 25:18 For they assailed you deceitfully when they seduced you in the matter of Peor and their sister Cozbi, the daughter of the Midianite leader, the woman who was killed on the day the plague ca
me because of Peor.”"
Numbers 25:15 And the na
me of the slain Midianite woman was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur, a tribal chief of a Midianite family.
Numbers 25:14 The na
me of the Israelite who was slain with the Midianite woman was Zimri son of Salu, the leader of a Si
meonite family.
Numbers 25:13 It will be a covenant of permanent priesthood for him and his descendants, because he was zealous for his God and made atone
ment for the Israelites.”"
Numbers 25:11 “Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned My wrath away from the Israelites; for he was zealous for My sake among them, so that I did not consu
me the Israelites in My zeal."
Numbers 25:6 Just then an Israelite man brought to his family a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses and the whole congregation of Israel while they were weeping at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 25:5 So Moses told the judges of Israel, “Each of you must kill all of his
men who have joined in worshiping Baal of Peor.”"
Numbers 25:1 While Israel was staying in Shittim, the
men began to indulge in sexual immorality with the daughters of Moab,
Numbers 24:25 Then Balaam arose and returned to his ho
meland, and Balak also went on his way.
Numbers 24:24 Ships will co
me from the coasts of Cyprus; they will subdue Asshur and Eber, but they too will perish forever.”"
Numbers 24:19 A ruler will co
me from Jacob and destroy the survivors of the city.”"
Numbers 24:18 Edom will beco
me a possession, as will Seir, his enemy; but Israel will perform with valor.
Numbers 24:17 I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not near. A star will co
me forth from Jacob, and a scepter will arise from Israel. He will crush the skulls of Moab and strike down all the sons of Sheth.
Numbers 24:14 Now I am going back to my people, but co
me, let
me warn you what this people will do to your people in the days to co
me.”"
Numbers 24:13 that even if Balak were to give
me his house full of silver and gold, I could not do anything of my own accord, good or bad, to go beyond the command of the LORD? I will speak whatever the LORD says.
Numbers 24:12 Balaam answered Balak, “Did I not already tell the
messengers you sent
me"
Numbers 24:11 Therefore, flee at once to your ho
me! I said I would richly reward you, but instead the LORD has denied your reward.”"
Numbers 24:10 Then Balak’s anger burned against Balaam, and he struck his hands together and said to Balaam, “I summoned you to curse my enemies, but behold, you have persisted in blessing them these three ti
mes."
Numbers 24:2 When Balaam looked up and saw Israel encamped tribe by tribe, the Spirit of God ca
me upon him,
Numbers 23:29 Then Balaam said, “Build for
me seven altars here, and prepare for
me seven bulls and seven rams.”"
Numbers 23:27 “Please co
me,” said Balak, “I will take you to another place. Perhaps it will please God that you curse them for
me from there.”"
Numbers 23:18 Then Balaam lifted up an oracle, saying: “Arise, O Balak, and listen; give ear to
me, O son of Zippor."
Numbers 23:16 And the LORD
met with Balaam and put a
message in his mouth, saying, “Return to Balak and speak what I tell you.”"
Numbers 23:15 Balaam said to Balak, “Stay here beside your burnt offering while I
meet the LORD over there.”"
Numbers 23:13 Then Balak said to him, “Please co
me with
me to another place where you can see them. You will only see the outskirts of their camp—not all of them. And from there, curse them for
me.”"
Numbers 23:11 Then Balak said to Balaam, “What have you done to
me? I brought you here to curse my enemies, and behold, you have only blessed them!”"
Numbers 23:10 Who can count the dust of Jacob or number even a fourth of Israel? Let
me die the death of the righteous; let my end be like theirs!”"
Numbers 23:7 And Balaam lifted up an oracle, saying: “Balak brought
me from Aram, the king of Moab from the mountains of the east. ‘Co
me,’ he said, ‘put a curse on Jacob for
me; co
me and denounce Israel!’"
Numbers 23:5 Then the LORD put a
message in Balaam’s mouth, saying, “Return to Balak and give him this
message.”"
Numbers 23:4 and God
met with him. “I have set up seven altars,” Balaam said, “and on each altar I have offered a bull and a ram.”"
Numbers 23:3 “Stay here by your burnt offering while I am gone,” Balaam said to Balak. “Perhaps the LORD will
meet with
me. And whatever He reveals to
me, I will tell you.” So Balaam went off to a barren height,"
Numbers 23:1 Then Balaam said to Balak, “Build for
me seven altars here, and prepare for
me seven bulls and seven rams.”"
Numbers 22:39 So Balaam accompanied Balak, and they ca
me to Kiriath-huzoth.
Numbers 22:38 “See, I have co
me to you,” Balaam replied, “but can I say just anything? I must speak only the word that God puts in my mouth.”"
Numbers 22:37 And he said to Balaam, “Did I not send you an urgent summons? Why did you not co
me to
me? Am I really not able to richly reward you?”"
Numbers 22:36 When Balak heard that Balaam was coming, he went out to
meet him at the Moabite city on the Arnon border, at the edge of his territory.
Numbers 22:35 But the angel of the LORD said to Balaam, “Go with the
men, but you are to speak only what I tell you.” So Balaam went with the princes of Balak."
Numbers 22:34 “I have sinned,” Balaam said to the angel of the LORD, “for I did not realize that you were standing in the road to confront
me. And now, if this is displeasing in your sight, I will go back ho
me.”"
Numbers 22:33 The donkey saw
me and turned away from
me these three ti
mes. If she had not turned away, then by now I would surely have killed you and let her live.”"
Numbers 22:32 The angel of the LORD asked him, “Why have you beaten your donkey these three ti
mes? Behold, I have co
me out to oppose you, because your way is perverse before
me."
Numbers 22:29 Balaam answered the donkey, “You have made a fool of
me! If I had a sword in my hand, I would kill you right now!”"
Numbers 22:28 Then the LORD opened the donkey’s mouth, and she said to Balaam, “What have I done to you that you have beaten
me these three ti
mes?”"
Numbers 22:27 When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD, she lay down under Balaam, and he beca
me furious and beat her with his staff.
Numbers 22:20 That night God ca
me to Balaam and said, “Since these
men have co
me to summon you, get up and go with them, but you must only do what I tell you.”"
Numbers 22:19 So now, please stay here overnight as the others did, that I may find out what else the LORD has to tell
me.”"
Numbers 22:18 But Balaam replied to the servants of Balak, “If Balak were to give
me his house full of silver and gold, I could not do anything small or great to go beyond the command of the LORD my God."
Numbers 22:17 for I will honor you richly and do whatever you say. So please co
me and put a curse on this people for
me!’”"
Numbers 22:16 They ca
me to Balaam and said, “This is what Balak son of Zippor says: ‘Please let nothing hinder you from coming to
me,"
Numbers 22:15 Then Balak sent other princes, more nu
merous and more distinguished than the first
messengers.
Numbers 22:14 And the princes of Moab arose, returned to Balak, and said, “Balaam refused to co
me with us.”"
Numbers 22:13 So Balaam got up the next morning and said to Balak’s princes, “Go back to your ho
meland, because the LORD has refused to let
me go with you.”"
Numbers 22:11 ‘Behold, a people has co
me out of Egypt, and they cover the face of the land. Now co
me and put a curse on them for
me. Perhaps I may be able to fight against them and drive them away.’”"
Numbers 22:10 And Balaam said to God, “Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, sent
me this
message:"
Numbers 22:9 Then God ca
me to Balaam and asked, “Who are these
men with you?”"
Numbers 22:8 “Spend the night here,” Balaam replied, “and I will give you the answer that the LORD speaks to
me.” So the princes of Moab stayed with Balaam."
Numbers 22:7 The elders of Moab and Midian departed with the fees for divination in hand. They ca
me to Balaam and relayed to him the words of Balak.
Numbers 22:6 So please co
me now and put a curse on this people, because they are too mighty for
me. Perhaps I may be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land; for I know that those you bless are blessed, and those you curse are cursed.”"
Numbers 22:5 he sent
messengers to Balaam son of Beor at Pethor, which is by the Euphrates in the land of his people. “Behold, a people has co
me out of Egypt,” said Balak. “They cover the face of the land and have settled next to
me."
Numbers 22:4 So the Moabites said to the elders of Midian, “This horde will devour everything around us, as an ox licks up the grass of the field.” Since Balak son of Zippor was king of Moab at that ti
me,"
Numbers 22:3 and Moab was terrified of the people because they were nu
merous. Indeed, Moab dreaded the Israelites.
Numbers 21:33 Then they turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan and his whole army ca
me out to
meet them in battle at Edrei.
Numbers 21:30 But we have overthrown them; Heshbon is destroyed as far as Dibon. We demolished them as far as Nophah, which reaches to
Medeba.”"
Numbers 21:28 For a fire went out from Heshbon, a blaze from the city of Sihon. It consu
med Ar of Moab, the rulers of Arnon’s heights."
Numbers 21:27 That is why the poets say: “Co
me to Heshbon, let it be rebuilt; let the city of Sihon be restored."
Numbers 21:26 Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had fought against the for
mer king of Moab and taken all his land as far as the Arnon.
Numbers 21:23 But Sihon would not let Israel pass through his territory. Instead, he gathered his whole army and went out to confront Israel in the wilderness. When he ca
me to Jahaz, he fought against Israel.
Numbers 21:21 Then Israel sent
messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
Numbers 21:7 Then the people ca
me to Moses and said, “We have sinned by speaking against the LORD and against you. Intercede with the LORD so He will take the snakes away from us.” So Moses interceded for the people."
Numbers 21:3 And the LORD heard Israel’s plea and delivered up the Canaanites. Israel devoted them and their cities to destruction; so they na
med the place Hormah."
Numbers 21:1 When the Canaanite king of Arad, who lived in the Negev, heard that Israel was coming along the road to Atharim, he attacked Israel and captured so
me prisoners.
Numbers 20:28 After Moses had removed Aaron’s gar
ments and put them on his son Eleazar, Aaron died there on top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar ca
me down from the mountain."
Numbers 20:26 Remove Aaron’s priestly gar
ments and put them on his son Eleazar. Aaron will be gathered to his people and will die there.”"
Numbers 20:24 “Aaron will be gathered to his people; he will not enter the land that I have given the Israelites, because both of you rebelled against My command at the waters of
Meribah."
Numbers 20:22 After they had set out from Kadesh, the whole congregation of Israel ca
me to Mount Hor.
Numbers 20:20 But Edom insisted, “You may not pass through.” And they ca
me out to confront the Israelites with a large army and a strong hand."
Numbers 20:18 But Edom answered, “You may not travel through our land, or we will co
me out and confront you with the sword.”"
Numbers 20:14 From Kadesh, Moses sent
messengers to tell the king of Edom, “This is what your brother Israel says: You know all the hardship that has befallen us,"
Numbers 20:13 These were the waters of
Meribah, where the Israelites quarreled with the LORD, and He showed His holiness among them.
Numbers 20:12 But the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not trust
Me to show My holiness in the sight of the Israelites, you will not bring this assembly into the land that I have given them.”"
Numbers 20:6 Then Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting. They fell facedown, and the glory of the LORD appeared to them.
Numbers 20:5 Why have you led us up out of Egypt to bring us to this wretched place? It is not a place of grain, figs, vines, or po
megranates—and there is no water to drink!”"
Numbers 19:22 Anything the unclean person touches will beco
me unclean, and anyone who touches it will be unclean until evening.”"
Numbers 19:18 Then a man who is ceremonially clean is to take so
me hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle the tent, all the furnishings, and the people who were there. He is also to sprinkle the one who touched a bone, a grave, or a person who has died or been slain.
Numbers 19:17 For the purification of the unclean person, take so
me of the ashes of the burnt sin offering, put them in a jar, and pour fresh water over them.
Numbers 19:16 Anyone in the open field who touches so
meone who has been killed by the sword or has died of natural causes, or anyone who touches a human bone or a grave, will be unclean for seven days.
Numbers 19:4 Eleazar the priest is to take so
me of its blood on his finger and sprinkle it seven ti
mes toward the front of the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 18:31 And you and your households may eat the rest of it anywhere; it is the compensation for your work at the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 18:23 The Levites are to perform the work of the Tent of
Meeting, and they must bear their iniquity. This is a permanent statute for the generations to co
me. The Levites will not receive an inheritance among the Israelites.
Numbers 18:22 No longer may the Israelites co
me near to the Tent of
Meeting, or they will incur guilt and die.
Numbers 18:21 Behold, I have given to the Levites all the tithes in Israel as an inheritance in return for the work they do, the service of the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 18:18 And their
meat belongs to you, just as the breast and right thigh of the wave offering belong to you.
Numbers 18:9 A portion of the most holy offerings reserved from the fire will be yours. From all the offerings they render to
Me as most holy offerings, whether grain offerings or sin offerings or guilt offerings, that part belongs to you and your sons.
Numbers 18:7 But only you and your sons shall attend to your priesthood for everything concerning the altar and what is inside the veil, and you are to perform that service. I am giving you the work of the priesthood as a gift, but any outsider who co
mes near the sanctuary must be put to death.”"
Numbers 18:6 Behold, I Myself have selected your fellow Levites from the Israelites as a gift to you, dedicated to the LORD to perform the service for the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 18:4 They are to join you and attend to the duties of the Tent of
Meeting, doing all the work at the Tent; but no outsider may co
me near you.
Numbers 18:3 And they shall attend to your duties and to all the duties of the Tent; but they must not co
me near to the furnishings of the sanctuary or the altar, or both they and you will die.
Numbers 17:13 Anyone who co
mes near the tabernacle of the LORD will die. Are we all going to perish?”"
Numbers 17:10 The LORD said to Moses, “Put Aaron’s staff back in front of the Testimony, to be kept as a sign for the rebellious, so that you may put an end to their grumbling against
Me, lest they die.”"
Numbers 17:8 The next day Moses entered the Tent of the Testimony and saw that Aaron’s staff, representing the house of Levi, had sprouted, put forth buds, blosso
med, and produced almonds."
Numbers 17:4 Place the staffs in the Tent of
Meeting in front of the Testimony, where I
meet with you.
Numbers 17:3 and write Aaron’s na
me on the staff of Levi, because there must be one staff for the head of each tribe."
Numbers 17:2 “Speak to the Israelites and take from them twelve staffs, one from the leader of each tribe. Write each man’s na
me on his staff,"
Numbers 16:50 Then Aaron returned to Moses at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting, since the plague had been halted.
Numbers 16:47 So Aaron took the censer as Moses had ordered and ran into the midst of the assembly. And seeing that the plague had begun among the people, he offered the incense and made atone
ment for the people.
Numbers 16:46 Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer, place fire from the altar in it, and add incense. Go quickly to the congregation and make atone
ment for them, because wrath has co
me out from the LORD; the plague has begun.”"
Numbers 16:45 “Get away from this congregation so that I may consu
me them in an instant.” And Moses and Aaron fell facedown."
Numbers 16:43 Then Moses and Aaron went to the front of the Tent of
Meeting,
Numbers 16:42 But when the congregation gathered against them, Moses and Aaron turned toward the Tent of
Meeting, and suddenly the cloud covered it and the glory of the LORD appeared.
Numbers 16:40 just as the LORD commanded him through Moses. This was to be a reminder to the Israelites that no outsider who is not a descendant of Aaron should approach to offer incense before the LORD, lest he beco
me like Korah and his followers.
Numbers 16:39 So Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers brought by those who had been burned up, and he had them ham
mered out to overlay the altar,
Numbers 16:38 As for the censers of those who sinned at the cost of their own lives, ham
mer them into sheets to overlay the altar, for these were presented before the LORD, and so have beco
me holy. They will serve as a sign to the Israelites.”"
Numbers 16:37 “Tell Eleazar son of Aaron the priest to remove the censers from the fla
mes and to scatter the coals far away, because the censers are holy."
Numbers 16:35 And fire ca
me forth from the LORD and consu
med the 250
men who were offering the incense.
Numbers 16:32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them and their households—all Korah’s
men and all their possessions."
Numbers 16:30 But if the LORD brings about so
mething unprecedented, and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them and all that belongs to them so that they go down alive into Sheol, then you will know that these
men have treated the LORD with contempt.”"
Numbers 16:29 If these
men die a natural death, or if they suffer the fate of all
men, then the LORD has not sent
me.
Numbers 16:28 Then Moses said, “This is how you will know that the LORD has sent
me to do all these things, for it was not my own doing:"
Numbers 16:27 So they moved away from the dwellings of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
Meanwhile, Dathan and Abiram had co
me out and stood at the entrances to their tents with their wives and children and infants.
Numbers 16:26 And he warned the congregation, “Move away now from the tents of these wicked
men. Do not touch anything that belongs to them, or you will be swept away because of all their sins.”"
Numbers 16:21 “Separate yourselves from this congregation so that I may consu
me them in an instant.”"
Numbers 16:19 When Korah had gathered his whole assembly against them at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting, the glory of the LORD appeared to the whole congregation.
Numbers 16:18 So each man took his censer, put fire and incense in it, and stood with Moses and Aaron at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 16:15 Then Moses beca
me very angry and said to the LORD, “Do not regard their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them or mistreated a single one of them.”"
Numbers 16:14 Moreover, you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey or given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you gouge out the eyes of these
men? No, we will not co
me!”"
Numbers 16:12 Then Moses summoned Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, but they said, “We will not co
me!"
Numbers 16:3 They ca
me together against Moses and Aaron and told them, “You have taken too much upon yourselves! For everyone in the entire congregation is holy, and the LORD is in their midst. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the LORD?”"
Numbers 16:2 a rebellion against Moses, along with 250
men of Israel renowned as leaders of the congregation and representatives in the assembly.
Numbers 16:1 Now Korah son of Izhar, the son of Kohath son of Levi, along with so
me Reubenites—Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth—conducted"
Numbers 15:40 Then you will re
member and obey all My command
ments, and you will be holy to your God.
Numbers 15:39 These will serve as tassels for you to look at, so that you may re
member all the command
ments of the LORD, that you may obey them and not prostitute yourselves by following your own heart and your own eyes.
Numbers 15:38 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout the generations to co
me they are to make for themselves tassels for the corners of their gar
ments, with a blue cord on each tassel."
Numbers 15:31 He shall certainly be cut off, because he has despised the word of the LORD and broken His command
ment; his guilt remains on him.”"
Numbers 15:30 But the person who sins defiantly, whether a native or foreigner, blasphe
mes the LORD. That person shall be cut off from among his people.
Numbers 15:29 You shall have the sa
me law for the one who acts in error, whether he is a native-born Israelite or a foreigner residing among you.
Numbers 15:28 And the priest shall make atone
ment before the LORD on behalf of the person who erred by sinning unintentionally; and when atone
ment has been made for him, he will be forgiven.
Numbers 15:25 The priest is to make atone
ment for the whole congregation of Israel, so that they may be forgiven; for the sin was unintentional and they have brought to the LORD an offering made by fire and a sin offering, presented before the LORD for their unintentional sin.
Numbers 15:23 all that the LORD has commanded you through Moses from the day the LORD gave them and continuing through the generations to co
me—"
Numbers 15:22 Now if you stray unintentionally and do not obey all these command
ments that the LORD has spoken to Moses—"
Numbers 15:16 The sa
me law and the sa
me ordinance will apply both to you and to the foreigner residing with you.”"
Numbers 15:15 The assembly is to have the sa
me statute both for you and for the foreign resident; it is a permanent statute for the generations to co
me. You and the foreigner shall be the sa
me before the LORD.
Numbers 15:14 And for the generations to co
me, if a foreigner residing with you or so
meone else among you wants to prepare an offering made by fire as a pleasing aroma to the LORD, he is to do exactly as you do.
Numbers 15:2 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: After you enter the land that I am giving you as a ho
me"
Numbers 14:45 Then the Amalekites and Canaanites who lived in that part of the hill country ca
me down, attacked them, and routed them all the way to Hormah.
Numbers 14:41 But Moses said, “Why are you transgressing the command
ment of the LORD? This will not succeed!"
Numbers 14:38 Of those
men who had gone to spy out the land, only Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh remained alive.
Numbers 14:37 those
men who had brought out the bad report about the land—were struck down by a plague before the LORD."
Numbers 14:36 So the
men Moses had sent to spy out the land, who had returned and made the whole congregation grumble against him by bringing out a bad report about the land—"
Numbers 14:35 I, the LORD, have spoken, and I will surely do these things to this entire wicked congregation, which has conspired against
Me. They will
meet their end in the wilderness, and there they will die.”"
Numbers 14:31 But I will bring your children, whom you said would beco
me plunder, into the land you have rejected—and they will enjoy it."
Numbers 14:29 Your bodies will fall in this wilderness—all who were numbered in the census, everyone twenty years of age or older—because you have grumbled against
Me."
Numbers 14:27 “How long will this wicked congregation grumble against
Me? I have heard the complaints that the Israelites are making against
Me."
Numbers 14:24 But because My servant Caleb has a different spirit and has followed
Me wholeheartedly, I will bring him into the land he has entered, and his descendants will inherit it.
Numbers 14:23 not one will ever see the land that I swore to give their fathers. None of those who have treated
Me with contempt will see it.
Numbers 14:22 not one of the
men who have seen My glory and the signs I perfor
med in Egypt and in the wilderness—yet have tested
Me and disobeyed
Me these ten ti
mes—"
Numbers 14:18 ‘The LORD is slow to anger and abounding in loving devotion, forgiving iniquity and transgression. Yet He will by no
means leave the guilty unpunished; He will visit the iniquity of the fathers upon their children to the third and fourth generation.’"
Numbers 14:15 If You kill this people as one man, the nations who have heard of Your fa
me will say,
Numbers 14:11 And the LORD said to Moses, “How long will this people treat
Me with contempt? How long will they refuse to believe in
Me, despite all the signs I have perfor
med among them?"
Numbers 14:10 But the whole congregation threatened to stone Joshua and Caleb. Then the glory of the LORD appeared to all the Israelites at the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 14:3 Why is the LORD bringing us into this land to fall by the sword? Our wives and children will beco
me plunder. Would it not be better for us to go back to Egypt?”"
Numbers 13:33 We even saw the Nephilim there—the descendants of Anak that co
me from the Nephilim! We see
med like grasshoppers in our own sight, and we must have see
med the sa
me to them!”"
Numbers 13:31 But the
men who had gone up with him replied, “We cannot go up against the people, for they are stronger than we are!”"
Numbers 13:27 And they gave this account to Moses: “We went into the land to which you sent us, and indeed, it is flowing with milk and honey. Here is so
me of its fruit!"
Numbers 13:25 After forty days the
men returned from spying out the land,
Numbers 13:23 When they ca
me to the Valley of Eshcol, they cut down a branch with a single cluster of grapes, which they carried on a pole between two
men. They also took so
me po
megranates and figs.
Numbers 13:22 They went up through the Negev and ca
me to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, dwelled. It had been built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.
Numbers 13:20 Is the soil fertile or unproductive? Are there trees in it or not? Be courageous, and bring back so
me of the fruit of the land.” (It was the season for the first ripe grapes.)"
Numbers 13:16 These were the na
mes of the
men Moses sent to spy out the land; and Moses gave to Hoshea son of Nun the na
me Joshua.
Numbers 13:4 and these were their na
mes: From the tribe of Reuben, Shammua son of Zaccur;
Numbers 13:3 So at the consent of the LORD, Moses sent them out from the Wilderness of Paran. All the
men were leaders of the Israelites,
Numbers 13:2 “Send out for yourself
men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the Israelites. From each of their fathers’ tribes send one man who is a leader among them.”"
Numbers 12:12 Please do not let her be like a stillborn infant whose flesh is half consu
med when he co
mes out of his mother’s womb.”"
Numbers 12:10 As the cloud lifted from above the Tent, suddenly Miriam beca
me leprous, white as snow. Aaron turned toward her, saw that she was leprous,
Numbers 12:5 and the LORD ca
me down in a pillar of cloud, stood at the entrance to the Tent, and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When both of them had stepped forward,
Numbers 12:4 And suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “You three, co
me out to the Tent of
Meeting.” So the three went out,"
Numbers 11:35 From Kibroth-hattaavah the people moved on to Hazeroth, where they remained for so
me ti
me.
Numbers 11:33 But while the
meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the anger of the LORD burned against the people, and the LORD struck them with a severe plague.
Numbers 11:32 All that day and night, and all the next day, the people stayed up gathering the quail. No one gathered less than ten ho
mers, and they spread them out all around the camp.
Numbers 11:31 Now a wind sent by the LORD ca
me up, drove in quail from the sea, and brought them near the camp, about two cubits above the surface of the ground, for a day’s journey in every direction around the camp."
Numbers 11:27 A young man ran and reported to Moses, “Eldad and
Medad are prophesying in the camp.”"
Numbers 11:26 Two
men, however, had remained in the camp—one na
med Eldad and the other
Medad—and the Spirit rested on them. They were among those listed, but they had not gone out to the tent, and they prophesied in the camp."
Numbers 11:25 Then the LORD ca
me down in the cloud and spoke to him, and He took so
me of the Spirit that was on Moses and placed that Spirit on the seventy elders. As the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied—but they never did so again."
Numbers 11:23 The LORD answered Moses, “Is the LORD’s arm too short? Now you will see whether or not My word will co
me to pass.”"
Numbers 11:21 But Moses replied, “Here I am among 600,000
men on foot, yet You say, ‘I will give them
meat, and they will eat for a month.’"
Numbers 11:20 but for a whole month—until it co
mes out of your nostrils and makes you nauseous—because you have rejected the LORD, who is among you, and have cried out before Him, saying, ‘Why did we ever leave Egypt?’”"
Numbers 11:18 And say to the people: Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, and you will eat
meat, because you have cried out in the hearing of the LORD, saying: ‘Who will feed us
meat? For we were better off in Egypt!’ Therefore the LORD will give you
meat, and you will eat."
Numbers 11:17 And I will co
me down and speak with you there, and I will take so
me of the Spirit that is on you and put that Spirit on them. They will help you bear the burden of the people, so that you do not have to bear it by yourself.
Numbers 11:16 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Bring
Me seventy of the elders of Israel known to you as leaders and officers of the people. Bring them to the Tent of
Meeting and have them stand there with you."
Numbers 11:15 If this is how You are going to treat
me, please kill
me right now—if I have found favor in Your eyes—and let
me not see my own wretchedness.”"
Numbers 11:14 I cannot carry all these people by myself; it is too burdenso
me for
me.
Numbers 11:13 Where can I get
meat for all these people? For they keep crying out to
me, ‘Give us
meat to eat!’"
Numbers 11:12 Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth, so that You should tell
me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse carries an infant,’ to the land that You swore to give their fathers?"
Numbers 11:11 So Moses asked the LORD, “Why have You brought this trouble on Your servant? Why have I not found favor in Your sight, that You have laid upon
me the burden of all these people?"
Numbers 11:5 We re
member the fish we ate freely in Egypt, along with the cucumbers,
melons, leeks, onions, and garlic.
Numbers 11:4 Meanwhile, the rabble among them had a strong craving for other food, and again the Israelites wept and said, “Who will feed us
meat?"
Numbers 11:1 Soon the people began to complain about their hardship in the hearing of the LORD, and when He heard them, His anger was kindled, and fire from the LORD blazed among them and consu
med the outskirts of the camp.
Numbers 10:36 And when it ca
me to rest, he would say: “Return, O LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel.”"
Numbers 10:32 If you co
me with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us.”"
Numbers 10:29 Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of Moses’ father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, “We are setting out for the place of which the LORD said: ‘I will give it to you.’ Co
me with us, and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.”"
Numbers 10:19 Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai was over the division of the tribe of Si
meon,
Numbers 10:17 Then the tabernacle was taken down, and the Gershonites and the
Merarites set out, transporting it.
Numbers 10:13 They set out this first ti
me according to the LORD’s command through Moses."
Numbers 10:9 When you enter into battle in your land against an adversary who attacks you, sound short blasts on the trumpets, and you will be re
membered before the LORD your God and saved from your enemies.
Numbers 10:8 The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. This shall be a permanent statute for you and the generations to co
me.
Numbers 10:6 When you sound the short blasts a second ti
me, the camps that lie on the south side are to set out. The blasts are to signal them to set out.
Numbers 10:3 When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 10:2 “Make two trumpets of ham
mered silver to be used for calling the congregation and for having the camps set out."
Numbers 9:21 So
meti
mes the cloud remained only from evening until morning, and when it lifted in the morning, they would set out. Whether it was by day or by night, when the cloud was taken up, they would set out.
Numbers 9:20 So
meti
mes the cloud remained over the tabernacle for only a few days, and they would camp at the LORD’s command and set out at the LORD’s command."
Numbers 9:14 If a foreigner dwelling among you wants to observe the Passover to the LORD, he is to do so according to the Passover statute and its ordinances. You are to apply the sa
me statute to both the foreigner and the native of the land.’”"
Numbers 9:13 But if a man who is ceremonially clean and is not on a journey still fails to observe the Passover, he must be cut off from his people, because he did not present the LORD’s offering at its appointed ti
me. That man will bear the consequences of his sin."
Numbers 9:7 and said to Moses, “We are unclean because of a dead body, but why should we be excluded from presenting the LORD’s offering with the other Israelites at the appointed ti
me?”"
Numbers 9:6 But there were so
me men who were unclean due to a dead body, so they could not observe the Passover on that day. And they ca
me before Moses and Aaron that sa
me day
Numbers 9:3 You are to observe it at the appointed ti
me, at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month, in accordance with its statutes and ordinances.”"
Numbers 9:2 “The Israelites are to observe the Passover at its appointed ti
me."
Numbers 9:1 In the first month of the second year after Israel had co
me out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai:
Numbers 8:26 After that, they may assist their brothers in fulfilling their duties at the Tent of
Meeting, but they themselves are not to do the work. This is how you are to assign responsibilities to the Levites.”"
Numbers 8:24 “This applies to the Levites:
Men twenty-five years of age or older shall enter to perform the service in the work at the Tent of
Meeting."
Numbers 8:22 After that, the Levites ca
me to perform their service at the Tent of
Meeting in the presence of Aaron and his sons. Thus they did with the Levites just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Numbers 8:21 The Levites purified themselves and washed their clothes, and Aaron presented them as a wave offering before the LORD. Aaron also made atone
ment for them to cleanse them.
Numbers 8:19 And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons from among the Israelites, to perform the service for the Israelites at the Tent of
Meeting and to make atone
ment on their behalf, so that no plague will co
me against the Israelites when they approach the sanctuary.”"
Numbers 8:16 For the Levites have been wholly given to
Me from among the sons of Israel. I have taken them for Myself in place of all who co
me first from the womb, the firstborn of all the sons of Israel.
Numbers 8:15 After you have cleansed them and presented them as a wave offering, they may co
me to serve at the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 8:14 In this way you shall separate the Levites from the rest of the Israelites, and the Levites will belong to
Me.
Numbers 8:12 And the Levites are to lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and offer to the LORD one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, to make atone
ment for the Levites.
Numbers 8:9 Bring the Levites before the Tent of
Meeting and assemble the whole congregation of Israel.
Numbers 8:4 This is how the lampstand was constructed: it was made of ham
mered gold from its base to its blossoms, fashioned according to the pattern the LORD had shown Moses.
Numbers 7:89 When Moses entered the Tent of
Meeting to speak with the LORD, he heard the voice speaking to him from between the two cherubim above the
mercy seat on the ark of the Testimony. Thus the LORD spoke to him.
Numbers 7:36 On the fifth day Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai, the leader of the Si
meonites, drew near.
Numbers 7:8 and he gave the
Merarites four carts and eight oxen, as their service required, all under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
Numbers 7:5 “Accept these gifts from them, that they may be used in the work of the Tent of
Meeting. And give them to the Levites, to each man according to his service.”"
Numbers 7:2 And the leaders of Israel, the heads of their families, presented an offering. These
men were the tribal leaders who had supervised the registration.
Numbers 6:27 So they shall put My na
me on the Israelites, and I will bless them.”"
Numbers 6:18 Then at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting, the Nazirite is to shave his consecrated head, take the hair, and put it on the fire under the peace offering.
Numbers 6:13 Now this is the law of the Nazirite when his ti
me of separation is complete: He must be brought to the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting,
Numbers 6:12 He must rededicate his ti
me of separation to the LORD and bring a year-old male lamb as a guilt offering. But the preceding days shall not be counted, because his separation was defiled.
Numbers 6:11 And the priest is to offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering to make atone
ment for him, because he has sinned by being in the presence of the dead body. On that day he must consecrate his head again.
Numbers 6:10 On the eighth day he must bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.
Numbers 6:9 If so
meone suddenly dies in his presence and defiles his consecrated head of hair, he must shave his head on the day of his cleansing—the seventh day."
Numbers 6:8 Throughout the ti
me of his separation, he is holy to the LORD.
Numbers 6:5 For the entire period of his vow of separation, no razor shall pass over his head. He must be holy until the ti
me of his separation to the LORD is complete; he must let the hair of his head grow long.
Numbers 6:4 All the days of his separation, he is not to eat anything that co
mes from the grapevine, not even the seeds or skins.
Numbers 5:30 or when a feeling of jealousy co
mes over a husband and he suspects his wife. He is to have the woman stand before the LORD, and the priest is to apply to her this entire law.
Numbers 5:27 When he has made her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and been unfaithful to her husband, then the water that brings a curse will enter her and cause bitter suffering; her belly will swell, her thigh will shrivel, and she will beco
me accursed among her people.
Numbers 5:26 Then the priest is to take a handful of the grain offering as a
memorial portion and burn it on the altar; after that he is to have the woman drink the water.
Numbers 5:22 May this water that brings a curse enter your stomach and cause your belly to swell and your thigh to shrivel.’ Then the woman is to say, ‘A
men, A
men.’"
Numbers 5:19 And he is to put the woman under oath and say to her, ‘If no other man has slept with you and you have not gone astray and beco
me defiled while under your husband’s authority, may you be immune to this bitter water that brings a curse."
Numbers 5:18 After the priest has the woman stand before the LORD, he is to let down her hair and place in her hands the grain offering of
memorial, which is the grain offering for jealousy. The priest is to hold the bitter water that brings a curse.
Numbers 5:17 Then he is to take so
me holy water in a clay jar and put so
me of the dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.
Numbers 5:15 then he is to bring his wife to the priest. He must also bring for her an offering of a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He is not to pour oil over it or put frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, an offering of
memorial as a reminder of iniquity.
Numbers 5:14 and if a feeling of jealousy co
mes over her husband and he suspects his wife who has defiled herself—or if a feeling of jealousy co
mes over him and he suspects her even though she has not defiled herself—"
Numbers 5:8 But if the man has no relative to whom restitution can be made for the wrong, the restitution belongs to the LORD and must be given to the priest along with the ram of atone
ment, by which the atone
ment is made for him.

Numbers 4:15 When Aaron and his sons have finished covering the holy objects and all their equip
ment, as soon as the camp is ready to move, the Kohathites shall co

Numbers 1:1 On the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites had co
me out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Tent of
Meeting in the Wilderness of Sinai. He said:
Leviticus 27:34 These are the command
ments that the LORD gave to Moses for the Israelites on Mount Sinai.
Leviticus 27:33 He must not inspect whether it is good or bad, and he shall not make any substitution. But if he does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute shall beco
me holy; they cannot be redee
med.’”"
Leviticus 27:29 No person set apart for destruction may be ranso
med; he must surely be put to death.
Leviticus 27:28 Nothing that a man sets apart to the LORD from all he owns—whether a man, an animal, or his inherited land—can be sold or redee
med; everything so devoted is most holy to the LORD."
Leviticus 27:27 But if it is among the unclean animals, then he may redeem it according to your valuation and add a fifth of its value. If it is not redee
med, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.
Leviticus 27:21 When the field is released in the Jubilee, it will beco
me holy, like a field devoted to the LORD; it beco
mes the property of the priests.
Leviticus 27:20 If, however, he does not redeem the field, or if he has sold it to another man, it may no longer be redee
med.
Leviticus 27:16 If a man consecrates to the LORD a parcel of his land, then your valuation shall be proportional to the seed required for it—fifty shekels of silver for every ho
mer of barley seed."
Leviticus 27:2 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them, ‘When so
meone makes a special vow to the LORD involving the value of persons,"
Leviticus 26:45 But for their sake I will re
member the covenant with their fathers, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am the LORD.”"
Leviticus 26:42 then I will re
member My covenant with Jacob and My covenant with Isaac and My covenant with Abraham, and I will re
member the land.
Leviticus 26:41 and I acted with hostility toward them and brought them into the land of their enemies—and if their uncircumcised hearts will be humbled and they will make a
mends for their iniquity,"
Leviticus 26:40 But if they will confess their iniquity and that of their fathers in the unfaithfulness that they practiced against
Me, by which they have also walked in hostility toward
Me—"
Leviticus 26:38 You will perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies will consu
me you.
Leviticus 26:34 Then the land shall enjoy its Sabbaths all the days it lies desolate, while you are in the land of your enemies. At that ti
me the land will rest and enjoy its Sabbaths.
Leviticus 26:33 But I will scatter you among the nations and will draw out a sword after you as your land beco
mes desolate and your cities are laid waste.
Leviticus 26:31 I will reduce your cities to rubble and lay waste your sanctuaries, and I will refuse to s
mell the pleasing aroma of your sacrifices.
Leviticus 26:27 But if in spite of all this you do not obey
Me, but continue to walk in hostility toward
Me,
Leviticus 26:26 When I cut off your supply of bread, ten wo
men will bake your bread in a single oven and dole out your bread by weight, so that you will eat but not be satisfied.
Leviticus 26:23 And if in spite of these things you do not accept My discipline, but continue to walk in hostility toward
Me,
Leviticus 26:21 If you walk in hostility toward
Me and refuse to obey
Me, I will multiply your plagues seven ti
mes, according to your sins.
Leviticus 26:18 And if after all this you will not obey
Me, I will proceed to punish you sevenfold for your sins.
Leviticus 26:15 and if you reject My statutes, despise My ordinances, and neglect to carry out all My command
ments, and so break My covenant,
Leviticus 26:14 If, however, you fail to obey
Me and to carry out all these command
ments,
Leviticus 26:5 Your threshing will continue until the grape harvest, and the grape harvest will continue until sowing ti
me; you will have your fill of food to eat and will dwell securely in your land.
Leviticus 26:3 If you follow My statutes and carefully keep My command
ments,
Leviticus 25:54 Even if he is not redee
med in any of these ways, he and his children shall be released in the Year of Jubilee.
Leviticus 25:50 He and his purchaser will then count the ti
me from the year he sold himself up to the Year of Jubilee. The price of his sale will be determined by the number of years, based on the daily wages of a hired hand.
Leviticus 25:47 If a foreigner residing among you prospers, but your countryman dwelling near him beco
mes destitute and sells himself to the foreigner or to a
member of his clan,
Leviticus 25:45 You may also purchase them from the foreigners residing among you or their clans living among you who are born in your land. These may beco
me your property.
Leviticus 25:44 Your
menservants and maidservants shall co

me disheveled and do not tear your gar
ments, or else you will die, and the LORD will be angry with the whole congregation. But your brothers, the whole house of Israel, may mourn on account of the fire that the LORD has ignited."
Leviticus 10:5 So they ca

meat at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying, ‘Aaron and his sons are to eat it.’"
Leviticus 8:30 Next, Moses took so
me of the anointing oil and so
me of the blood that was on the altar and sprinkled them on Aaron and his gar
ments, and on his sons and their gar
ments. So he consecrated Aaron and his gar
ments, as well as Aaron’s sons and their gar

Leviticus 8:23 Moses slaughtered the ram and took so
me of its blood and put it on Aaron’s right earlobe, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot."
Leviticus 8:15 Moses slaughtered the bull, took so
me of the blood, and applied it with his finger to all four horns of the altar, purifying the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar and consecrated it so that atone
ment could be made on it.
Leviticus 8:12 He also poured so
me of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him to consecrate him."
Leviticus 8:11 He sprinkled so
me of the oil on the altar seven ti
mes, anointing the altar and all its utensils, and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them.
Leviticus 8:4 So Moses did as the LORD had commanded him, and the assembly gathered at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.
Leviticus 8:3 and assemble the whole congregation at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.”"
Leviticus 8:2 “Take Aaron and his sons, their gar
ments, the anointing oil, the bull of the sin offering, the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread,"
Leviticus 7:36 On the day they were anointed, the LORD commanded that this be given them by the sons of Israel. It is a permanent portion for the generations to co
me.
Leviticus 7:21 If one touches anything unclean, whether human uncleanness, an unclean animal, or any unclean, detestable thing, and then eats any of the
meat of the peace offering that belongs to the LORD, that person must be cut off from his people.”"
Leviticus 7:20 But if anyone who is unclean eats
meat from the peace offering that belongs to the LORD, that person must be cut off from his people.
Leviticus 7:19 Meat that touches anything unclean must not be eaten; it is to be burned up. As for any other
meat, anyone who is ceremonially clean may eat it.
Leviticus 7:18 If any of the
meat from his peace offering is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted. It will not be credited to the one who presented it; it shall be an abomination, and the one who eats of it shall bear his iniquity.
Leviticus 7:17 But any
meat of the sacrifice remaining until the third day must be burned up.
Leviticus 7:15 The
meat of the sacrifice of his peace offering of thanksgiving must be eaten on the day he offers it; none of it may be left until morning.
Leviticus 7:7 The guilt offering is like the sin offering; the sa
me law applies to both. It belongs to the priest who makes atone
ment with it.
Leviticus 6:30 But no sin offering may be eaten if its blood has been brought into the Tent of
Meeting to make atone
ment in the Holy Place; it must be burned.
Leviticus 6:27 Anything that touches its flesh will beco
me holy, and if any of the blood is spattered on a gar
ment, you must wash it in a holy place.
Leviticus 6:26 The priest who offers it shall eat it; it must be eaten in a holy place, in the courtyard of the Tent of
Meeting.
Leviticus 6:18 Any male among the sons of Aaron may eat it. This is a permanent portion from the offerings made by fire to the LORD for the generations to co
me. Anything that touches them will beco
me holy.”"
Leviticus 6:16 Aaron and his sons are to eat the remainder. It must be eaten without leaven in a holy place; they are to eat it in the courtyard of the Tent of
Meeting.
Leviticus 6:15 The priest is to remove a handful of fine flour and olive oil, together with all the frankincense from the grain offering, and burn the
memorial portion on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
Leviticus 6:11 Then he must take off his gar
ments, put on other clothes, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a ceremonially clean place.
Leviticus 6:10 And the priest shall put on his linen robe and linen undergar
ments, and he shall remove from the altar the ashes of the burnt offering that the fire has consu
med and place them beside it.
Leviticus 6:7 In this way the priest will make atone
ment for him before the LORD, and he will be forgiven for anything he may have done to incur guilt.”"
Leviticus 6:4 once he has sinned and beco
mes guilty, he must return what he has stolen or taken by extortion, or the deposit entrusted to him, or the lost property he found,
Leviticus 6:2 “If so
meone sins and acts unfaithfully against the LORD by deceiving his neighbor in regard to a deposit or security entrusted to him or stolen, or if he extorts his neighbor"
Leviticus 5:18 He is to bring to the priest an unblemished ram of proper value from the flock as a guilt offering. Then the priest will make atone
ment on his behalf for the wrong he has committed in ignorance, and he will be forgiven.
Leviticus 5:17 If so
meone sins and violates any of the LORD’s command
ments even though he was unaware, he is guilty and shall bear his punish
ment."
Leviticus 5:16 Regarding any holy thing he has har
med, he must make restitution by adding a fifth of its value to it and giving it to the priest, who will make atone
ment on his behalf with the ram as a guilt offering, and he will be forgiven.
Leviticus 5:15 “If so
meone acts unfaithfully and sins unintentionally against any of the LORD’s holy things, he must bring his guilt offering to the LORD: an unblemished ram from the flock, of proper value in silver shekels according to the sanctuary shekel; it is a guilt offering."
Leviticus 5:13 In this way the priest will make atone
ment for him for any of these sins he has committed, and he will be forgiven. The remainder will belong to the priest, like the grain offering.”"
Leviticus 5:12 He is to bring it to the priest, who shall take a handful from it as a
memorial portion and burn it on the altar atop the offerings made by fire to the LORD; it is a sin offering.
Leviticus 5:10 And the priest must prepare the second bird as a burnt offering according to the ordinance. In this way the priest will make atone
ment for him for the sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.
Leviticus 5:9 then he is to sprinkle so
me of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, while the rest of the blood is drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering.
Leviticus 5:6 and he must bring his guilt offering to the LORD for the sin he has committed: a female lamb or goat from the flock as a sin offering. And the priest will make atone
ment for him concerning his sin.
Leviticus 5:5 If so
meone incurs guilt in one of these ways, he must confess the sin he has committed,
Leviticus 5:4 Or if so
meone swears thoughtlessly with his lips to do anything good or evil—in whatever matter a man may rashly pronounce an oath—even if he is unaware of it, when he realizes it, he is guilty in the matter."
Leviticus 5:3 Or if he touches human uncleanness—anything by which one beco
mes unclean—even if he is unaware of it, when he realizes it, he is guilty."
Leviticus 5:1 “If so
meone sins by failing to testify when he hears a public charge about so
mething he has witnessed, whether he has seen it or learned of it, he shall bear the iniquity."
Leviticus 4:35 And he shall remove all the fat, just as the fat of the lamb is removed from the peace offerings, and he shall burn it on the altar along with the offerings made by fire to the LORD. In this way the priest will make atone
ment for him for the sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.
Leviticus 4:34 Then the priest is to take so
me of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and pour out the rest of its blood at the base of the altar.
Leviticus 4:31 Then he is to remove all the fat, just as it is removed from the peace offering, and the priest is to burn it on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the LORD. In this way the priest will make atone
ment for him, and he will be forgiven.
Leviticus 4:30 Then the priest is to take so
me of its blood with his finger, put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
Leviticus 4:28 When he beco
mes aware of the sin he has committed, he must bring an unblemished female goat as his offering for that sin.
Leviticus 4:27 And if one of the common people sins unintentionally and does what is prohibited by any of the LORD’s command
ments, he incurs guilt."
Leviticus 4:26 He must burn all its fat on the altar, like the fat of the peace offerings; thus the priest will make atone
ment for that man’s sin, and he will be forgiven."
Leviticus 4:25 Then the priest is to take so
me of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
Leviticus 4:23 When he beco
mes aware of the sin he has committed, he must bring an unblemished male goat as his offering.
Leviticus 4:22 When a leader sins unintentionally and does what is prohibited by any of the command
ments of the LORD his God, he incurs guilt.
Leviticus 4:20 He shall offer this bull just as he did the bull for the sin offering; in this way the priest will make atone
ment on their behalf, and they will be forgiven.
Leviticus 4:18 He is also to put so
me of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before the LORD in the Tent of
Meeting, and he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.
Leviticus 4:17 and he is to dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven ti
mes before the LORD in front of the veil.
Leviticus 4:16 Then the anointed priest is to bring so
me of the bull’s blood into the Tent of
Meeting,"
Leviticus 4:14 when they beco
me aware of the sin they have committed, then the assembly must bring a young bull as a sin offering and present it before the Tent of
Meeting.
Leviticus 4:13 Now if the whole congregation of Israel strays unintentionally and the matter escapes the notice of the assembly so that they violate any of the LORD’s command
ments and incur guilt by doing what is forbidden,"
Leviticus 4:7 The priest must then put so
me of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the LORD in the Tent of
Meeting. And he is to pour out the rest of the bull’s blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting."
Leviticus 4:6 The priest is to dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle so
me of it seven ti
mes before the LORD, in front of the veil of the sanctuary.
Leviticus 4:5 Then the anointed priest shall take so
me of the bull’s blood and bring it into the Tent of
Meeting."
Leviticus 4:4 He must bring the bull to the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting before the LORD, lay his hand on the bull’s head, and slaughter it before the LORD."
Leviticus 4:2 “Tell the Israelites to do as follows with one who sins unintentionally against any of the LORD’s command
ments and does what is forbidden by them:"
Leviticus 3:17 This is a permanent statute for the generations to co
me, wherever you live: You must not eat any fat or any blood.”"
Leviticus 3:13 He must lay his hand on its head and slaughter it in front of the Tent of
Meeting. Then Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood on all sides of the altar."
Leviticus 3:8 He is to lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it in front of the Tent of
Meeting. Then Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood on all sides of the altar."
Leviticus 3:2 He is to lay his hand on the head of the offering and slaughter it at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting. Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood on all sides of the altar."
Leviticus 2:16 The priest shall then burn the
memorial portion of the crushed grain and the oil, together with all its frankincense, as an offering made by fire to the LORD.
Leviticus 2:9 The priest is to remove the
memorial portion from the grain offering and burn it on the altar as an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
Leviticus 2:2 and bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests. The priest shall take a handful of the flour and oil, together with all the frankincense, and burn this as a
memorial portion on the altar, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD."
Leviticus 1:5 And he shall slaughter the young bull before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to present the blood and sprinkle it on all sides of the altar at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting."
Leviticus 1:4 He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, so it can be accepted on his behalf to make atone
ment for him.
Leviticus 1:3 If one’s offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to present an unblemished male. He must bring it to the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting for its acceptance before the LORD."
Leviticus 1:1 Then the LORD called to Moses and spoke to him from the Tent of
Meeting, saying,
Exodus 40:35 Moses was unable to enter the Tent of
Meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
Exodus 40:34 Then the cloud covered the Tent of
Meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
Exodus 40:32 They washed whenever they entered the Tent of
Meeting or approached the altar, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Exodus 40:30 He placed the basin between the Tent of
Meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing;
Exodus 40:29 He placed the altar of burnt offering near the entrance to the tabernacle, the Tent of
Meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, just as the LORD had commanded him.
Exodus 40:26 Moses placed the gold altar in the Tent of
Meeting, in front of the veil,
Exodus 40:24 He also placed the lampstand in the Tent of
Meeting opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle
Exodus 40:22 Moses placed the table in the Tent of
Meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil.
Exodus 40:20 Moses took the Testimony and placed it in the ark, attaching the poles to the ark; and he set the
mercy seat atop the ark.
Exodus 40:18 When Moses set up the tabernacle, he laid its bases, positioned its fra
mes, inserted its crossbars, and set up its posts.
Exodus 40:15 Anoint them just as you anointed their father, so that they may also serve
Me as priests. Their anointing will qualify them for a permanent priesthood throughout their generations.”"
Exodus 40:13 And you are to clothe Aaron with the holy gar
ments, anoint him, and consecrate him, so that he may serve
Me as a priest.
Exodus 40:12 Then bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting and wash them with water.
Exodus 40:7 And place the basin between the Tent of
Meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
Exodus 40:6 Place the altar of burnt offering in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the Tent of
Meeting.
Exodus 40:4 Then bring in the table and set out its arrange
ment; bring in the lampstand as well, and set up its lamps.
Exodus 40:2 “On the first day of the first month you are to set up the tabernacle, the Tent of
Meeting."
Exodus 39:41 and the woven gar
ments for ministering in the sanctuary, both the holy gar
ments for Aaron the priest and the gar
ments for his sons to serve as priests.
Exodus 39:40 the curtains of the courtyard with its posts and bases; the curtain for the gate of the courtyard, its ropes and tent pegs, and all the equip
ment for the service of the tabernacle, the Tent of
Meeting;
Exodus 39:35 the ark of the Testimony with its poles and the
mercy seat;
Exodus 39:33 Then they brought the tabernacle to Moses: the tent with all its furnishings, its clasps, its fra
mes, its crossbars, and its posts and bases;
Exodus 39:32 So all the work for the tabernacle, the Tent of
Meeting, was completed. The Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Exodus 39:28 as well as the turban of fine linen, the ornate headbands and undergar
ments of finely spun linen,
Exodus 39:26 alternating the bells and po
megranates around the lower hem of the robe to be worn for ministry, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Exodus 39:25 They also made bells of pure gold and attached them around the hem between the po
megranates,
Exodus 39:24 They made po
megranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and finely spun linen on the lower hem of the robe.
Exodus 39:23 with an opening in the center of the robe like that of a gar
ment, with a collar around the opening so that it would not tear.
Exodus 39:14 The twelve stones corresponded to the na
mes of the sons of Israel. Each stone was engraved like a seal with the na
me of one of the twelve tribes.
Exodus 39:12 the third row had a jacinth, an agate, and an a
methyst;
Exodus 39:10 And they mounted on it four rows of gemstones: The first row had a ruby, a topaz, and an e
merald;
Exodus 39:8 He made the breastpiece with the sa
me workmanship as the ephod, with gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and with finely spun linen.
Exodus 39:7 Then they fastened them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as
memorial stones for the sons of Israel, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Exodus 39:6 They mounted the onyx stones in gold filigree settings, engraved like a seal with the na
mes of the sons of Israel.
Exodus 39:5 And the skillfully woven waistband of the ephod was of one piece with the ephod, of the sa
me workmanship—with gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and with finely spun linen, just as the LORD had commanded Moses."
Exodus 39:3 They ham
mered out thin sheets of gold and cut threads from them to interweave with the blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen—the work of a skilled craftsman."
Exodus 39:1 From the blue, purple, and scarlet yarn they made specially woven gar
ments for ministry in the sanctuary, as well as the holy gar
ments for Aaron, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Exodus 38:30 He used it to make the bases for the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting, the bronze altar and its bronze grating, all the utensils for the altar,
Exodus 38:26 a beka per person, that is, half a shekel, according to the sanctuary shekel, from everyone twenty years of age or older who had crossed over to be numbered, a total of 603,550
men.
Exodus 38:8 Next he made the bronze basin and its stand from the mirrors of the wo
men who served at the entrance to the Tent of
Meeting.
Exodus 38:4 He made a grate of bronze
mesh for the altar under its ledge, halfway up from the bottom.
Exodus 38:3 He made all the altar’s utensils of bronze—its pots, shovels, sprinkling bowls,
meat forks, and firepans."
Exodus 37:29 He also made the sacred anointing oil and the pure, fragrant incense, the work of a perfu
mer.
Exodus 37:23 He also made its seven lamps, its wick trim
mers, and trays of pure gold.
Exodus 37:22 The buds and branches were all of one piece with the lampstand, ham
mered out of pure gold.
Exodus 37:19 There were three cups shaped like almond blossoms on the first branch, each with buds and petals, three on the next branch, and the sa
me for all six branches that extended from the lampstand.
Exodus 37:17 Then he made the lampstand out of pure ham
mered gold, all of one piece: its base and shaft, its cups, and its buds and petals.
Exodus 37:9 And the cherubim had wings that spread upward, overshadowing the
mercy seat. The cherubim faced each other, looking toward the
mercy seat.
Exodus 37:7 He made two cherubim of ham
mered gold at the ends of the
mercy seat,
Exodus 37:6 He constructed a
mercy seat of pure gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.
Exodus 36:34 And he overlaid the fra
mes with gold and made gold rings to hold the crossbars. He also overlaid the crossbars with gold.
Exodus 36:33 He made the central crossbar to run through the center of the fra
mes, from one end to the other.
Exodus 36:31 He also made five crossbars of acacia wood for the fra
mes on one side of the tabernacle,
Exodus 36:30 So there were eight fra
mes and sixteen silver bases—two under each fra
me."
Exodus 36:28 and two fra
mes for the two back corners of the tabernacle,
Exodus 36:27 He made six fra
mes for the rear of the tabernacle, the west side,
Exodus 36:26 and forty silver bases—two bases under each fra
me."
Exodus 36:25 For the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, he made twenty fra
mes
Exodus 36:24 with forty silver bases to put under the twenty fra
mes—two bases for each fra
me, one under each tenon."
Exodus 36:23 He constructed twenty fra
mes for the south side of the tabernacle,
Exodus 36:22 Two tenons were connected to each other for each fra
me. He made all the fra
mes of the tabernacle in this way.
Exodus 36:21 Each fra
me was ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.
Exodus 36:20 Next, he constructed upright fra
mes of acacia wood for the tabernacle.
Exodus 36:15 Each of the eleven curtains was the sa
me size—thirty cubits long and four cubits wide."
Exodus 36:9 Each curtain was twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide; all the curtains were the sa
me size.
Exodus 36:8 All the skilled crafts
men among the work
men made the ten curtains for the tabernacle. They were made of finely spun linen, as well as blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, with cherubim skillfully worked into them.
Exodus 36:4 so that all the skilled crafts
men who were doing all the work on the sanctuary left their work
Exodus 36:3 They received from Moses all the contributions that the Israelites had brought to carry out the service of constructing the sanctuary.
Meanwhile, the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning,
Exodus 36:2 Then Moses summoned Bezalel, Oholiab, and every skilled person whom the LORD had gifted—everyone whose heart stirred him to co
me and do the work."
Exodus 35:30 Then Moses said to the Israelites, “See, the LORD has called by na
me Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah."
Exodus 35:29 So all the
men and wo
men of the Israelites whose hearts prompted them brought a freewill offering to the LORD for all the work that the LORD through Moses had commanded them to do.
Exodus 35:26 And all the skilled wo
men whose hearts were stirred spun the goat hair.
Exodus 35:22 So all who had willing hearts, both
men and wo
men, ca
me and brought brooches and earrings, rings and necklaces, and all kinds of gold jewelry. And they all presented their gold as a wave offering to the LORD.
Exodus 35:21 And everyone whose heart stirred him and whose spirit prompted him ca
me and brought an offering to the LORD for the work on the Tent of
Meeting, for all its services, and for the holy gar
ments.
Exodus 35:19 and the woven gar
ments for ministering in the holy place—both the holy gar
ments for Aaron the priest and the gar
ments for his sons to serve as priests.”"
Exodus 35:12 the ark with its poles and
mercy seat, and the veil to shield it;
Exodus 35:11 the tabernacle with its tent and covering, its clasps and fra
mes, its crossbars, posts, and bases;
Exodus 35:10 Let every skilled craftsman among you co
me and make everything that the LORD has commanded:
Exodus 34:34 But whenever Moses went in before the LORD to speak with Him, he would remove the veil until he ca
me out. And when he ca
me out, he would tell the Israelites what he had been commanded,
Exodus 34:32 And after this all the Israelites ca
me near, and Moses commanded them to do everything that the LORD had told him on Mount Sinai.
Exodus 34:29 And when Moses ca
me down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands, he was unaware that his face had beco
me radiant from speaking with the LORD.
Exodus 34:28 So Moses was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights without eating bread or drinking water. He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant—the Ten Command
ments."
Exodus 34:25 Do not offer the blood of a sacrifice to
Me along with anything leavened, and do not let any of the sacrifice from the Passover Feast remain until morning.
Exodus 34:24 For I will drive out the nations before you and enlarge your borders, and no one will covet your land when you go up three ti
mes a year to appear before the LORD your God.
Exodus 34:23 Three ti
mes a year all your males are to appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.
Exodus 34:20 You must redeem the firstborn of a donkey with a lamb; but if you do not redeem it, you are to break its neck. You must redeem all the firstborn of your sons. No one shall appear before
Me empty-handed.
Exodus 34:19 The first offspring of every womb belongs to
Me, including all the firstborn males among your livestock, whether cattle or sheep.
Exodus 34:18 You are to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days at the appointed ti
me in the month of Abib, you are to eat unleavened bread as I commanded you. For in the month of Abib you ca
me out of Egypt.
Exodus 34:16 And when you take so
me of their daughters as brides for your sons, their daughters will prostitute themselves to their gods and cause your sons to do the sa
me.
Exodus 34:14 For you must not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose na
me is Jealous, is a jealous God.
Exodus 34:12 Be careful not to make a treaty with the inhabitants of the land you are entering, lest they beco
me a snare in your midst.
Exodus 34:10 And the LORD said, “Behold, I am making a covenant. Before all your people I will perform wonders that have never been done in any nation in all the world. All the people among whom you live will see the LORD’s work, for it is an aweso
me thing that I am doing with you."
Exodus 34:8 Moses im
mediately bowed down to the ground and worshiped.
Exodus 34:7 maintaining loving devotion to a thousand generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin. Yet He will by no
means leave the guilty unpunished; He will visit the iniquity of the fathers on their children and grandchildren to the third and fourth generations.”"
Exodus 34:5 And the LORD descended in a cloud, stood with him there, and proclai
med His na
me, the LORD.
Exodus 34:2 Be ready in the morning, and co
me up on Mount Sinai to present yourself before
Me on the mountaintop.
Exodus 33:21 The LORD continued, “There is a place near
Me where you are to stand upon a rock,"
Exodus 33:20 But He added, “You cannot see My face, for no one can see
Me and live.”"
Exodus 33:19 “I will cause all My goodness to pass before you,” the LORD replied, “and I will proclaim My na
me—the LORD—in your presence. I will have
mercy on whom I have
mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”"
Exodus 33:17 So the LORD said to Moses, “I will do this very thing you have asked, for you have found favor in My sight, and I know you by na
me.”"
Exodus 33:13 Now if indeed I have found favor in Your sight, please let
me know Your ways, that I may know You and find favor in Your sight. Re
member that this nation is Your people.”"
Exodus 33:12 Then Moses said to the LORD, “Look, You have been telling
me, ‘Lead this people up,’ but You have not let
me know whom You will send with
me. Yet You have said, ‘I know you by na
me, and you have found favor in My sight.’"
Exodus 33:9 As Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would co
me down and remain at the entrance, and the LORD would speak with Moses.
Exodus 33:7 Now Moses used to take the tent and pitch it at a distance outside the camp. He called it the Tent of
Meeting, and anyone inquiring of the LORD would go to the Tent of
Meeting outside the camp.
Exodus 33:5 For the LORD had said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites, ‘You are a stiff-necked people. If I should go with you for a single mo
ment, I would destroy you. Now take off your jewelry, and I will decide what to do with you.’”"
Exodus 32:33 The LORD replied to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against
Me, I will blot out of My book."
Exodus 32:32 Yet now, if You would only forgive their sin.... But if not, please blot
me out of the book that You have written.”"
Exodus 32:30 The next day Moses said to the people, “You have committed a great sin. Now I will go up to the LORD; perhaps I can make atone
ment for your sin.”"
Exodus 32:27 He told them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Each of you
men is to fasten his sword to his side, go back and forth through the camp from gate to gate, and slay his brother, his friend, and his neighbor.’”"
Exodus 32:26 So Moses stood at the entrance to the camp and said, “Whoever is for the LORD, co
me to
me.” And all the Levites gathered around him."
Exodus 32:25 Moses saw that the people were out of control, for Aaron had let them run wild and beco
me a laughingstock to their enemies.
Exodus 32:24 So I said to them, ‘Whoever has gold, let him take it off,’ and they gave it to
me. And when I threw it into the fire, out ca
me this calf!”"
Exodus 32:23 They told
me, ‘Make us gods who will go before us. As for this Moses who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him!’"
Exodus 32:13 Re
member Your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, to whom You swore by Your very self when You declared, ‘I will make your descendants as nu
merous as the stars in the sky, and I will give your descendants all this land that I have promised, and it shall be their inheritance forever.’”"
Exodus 32:10 Now leave
Me alone, so that My anger may burn against them and consu
me them. Then I will make you into a great nation.”"

me like it or puts it on an outsider shall be cut off from his people.’”"

ments will be consecrated, as well as his sons and their gar
ments.

me out of Egypt. No one may appear before
Me empty-handed.
Exodus 23:14 Three ti
mes a year you are to celebrate a feast to

mes of other gods; they must not be heard on your lips.

menservants do.
Exodus 20:25 Now if you make an altar of stones for
Me, you must not build it with stones shaped by tools; for if you use a chisel on it, you will defile it.
Exodus 20:24 You are to make for
Me an altar of earth, and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and peace offerings, your sheep and goats and cattle. In every place where I cause My na
me to be re

me to you and bless you.
Exodus 20:23 You are not to make any gods alongside
Me; you are not to make for yourselves gods of silver or gold.

member the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
Exodus 20:7 You shall not take the na
me of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave anyone unpunished who takes His na

Exodus 20:6 but showing loving devotion to a thousand generations of those who love
Me and keep My command
ments.
Exodus 20:5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on their children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate
Me,
Exodus 19:24 And the LORD replied, “Go down and bring Aaron with you. But the priests and the people must not break through to co
me up to the LORD, or He will break out against them.”"
Exodus 19:23 But Moses said to the LORD, “The people cannot co
me up Mount Sinai, for You solemnly warned us, ‘Put a boundary around the mountain and set it apart as holy.’”"
Exodus 19:17 Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to
meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
Exodus 19:16 On the third day, when morning ca
me, there was thunder and lightning. A thick cloud was upon the mountain, and a very loud blast of the ram’s horn went out, so that all the people in the camp trembled."
Exodus 19:14 When Moses ca
me down from the mountain to the people, he consecrated them, and they washed their clothes.
Exodus 19:11 and be prepared by the third day, for on the third day the LORD will co
me down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.
Exodus 19:9 The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I will co
me to you in a dense cloud, so that the people will hear when I speak with you, and they will always put their trust in you.” And Moses relayed to the LORD what the people had said."
Exodus 19:6 And unto
Me you shall be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you are to speak to the Israelites.”"
Exodus 19:1 In the third month, on the sa
me day of the month that the Israelites had left the land of Egypt, they ca
me to the Wilderness of Sinai.
Exodus 18:26 And they judged the people at all ti
mes; they would bring the difficult cases to Moses, but any minor issue they would judge themselves.
Exodus 18:25 So Moses chose capable
men from all Israel and made them heads over the people as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.
Exodus 18:23 If you follow this advice and God so directs you, then you will be able to endure, and all these people can go ho
me in peace.”"
Exodus 18:22 Have these
men judge the people at all ti
mes. Then they can bring you any major issue, but all minor cases they can judge on their own, so that your load may be lightened as they share it with you.
Exodus 18:21 Furthermore, select capable
men from among the people—God-fearing, trustworthy
men who are averse to dishonest gain. Appoint them over the people as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens."
Exodus 18:19 Now listen to
me; I will give you so
me advice, and may God be with you. You must be the people’s representative before God and bring their causes to Him."
Exodus 18:16 “Whenever they have a dispute, it is brought to
me to judge between one man and another, and I make known to them the statutes and laws of God.”"
Exodus 18:15 “Because the people co
me to
me to inquire of God,” Moses replied."
Exodus 18:12 Then Moses’ father-in-law Jethro brought a burnt offering and sacrifices to God, and Aaron ca
me with all the elders of Israel to eat bread with Moses’ father-in-law in the presence of God."
Exodus 18:7 So Moses went out to
meet his father-in-law and bowed down and kissed him. They greeted each other and went into the tent.
Exodus 18:5 Moses’ father-in-law Jethro, along with Moses’ wife and sons, ca
me to him in the desert, where he was encamped at the mountain of God."
Exodus 18:4 The other son was na
med Eliezer, for Moses had said, “The God of my father was my helper and delivered
me from the sword of Pharaoh.”"
Exodus 18:3 along with her two sons. One son was na
med Gershom, for Moses had said, “I have been a foreigner in a foreign land.”"
Exodus 17:15 And Moses built an altar and na
med it The LORD Is My Banner.
Exodus 17:14 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Write this on a scroll as a reminder and recite it to Joshua, because I will utterly blot out the
memory of Amalek from under heaven.”"
Exodus 17:13 So Joshua overwhel
med Amalek and his army with the sword.
Exodus 17:9 So Moses said to Joshua, “Choose so
me of our
men and go out to fight the Amalekites. Tomorrow I will stand on the hilltop with the staff of God in my hand.”"
Exodus 17:8 After this, the Amalekites ca
me and attacked the Israelites at Rephidim.
Exodus 17:7 He na
med the place Massah and
Meribah because the Israelites quarreled, and because they tested the LORD, saying, “Is the LORD among us or not?”"
Exodus 17:6 Behold, I will stand there before you by the rock at Horeb. And when you strike the rock, water will co
me out of it for the people to drink.” So Moses did this in the sight of the elders of Israel."
Exodus 17:5 And the LORD said to Moses, “Walk on ahead of the people and take so
me of the elders of Israel with you. Take along in your hand the staff with which you struck the Nile, and go."
Exodus 17:4 Then Moses cried out to the LORD, “What should I do with these people? A little more and they will stone
me!”"
Exodus 17:2 So the people contended with Moses, “Give us water to drink.” “Why do you contend with
me?” Moses replied. “Why do you test the LORD?”"
Exodus 16:35 The Israelites ate manna forty years, until they ca
me to a land where they could settle; they ate manna until they reached the border of Canaan.
Exodus 16:33 So Moses told Aaron, “Take a jar and fill it with an o
mer of manna. Then place it before the LORD to be preserved for the generations to co
me.”"
Exodus 16:32 Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Keep an o
mer of manna for the generations to co
me, so that they may see the bread I fed you in the wilderness when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.’”"
Exodus 16:28 Then the LORD said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to keep My command
ments and instructions?"
Exodus 16:27 Yet on the seventh day so
me of the people went out to gather, but they did not find anything.
Exodus 16:24 So they set it aside until morning as Moses had commanded, and it did not s
mell or contain any maggots.
Exodus 16:22 On the sixth day, they gathered twice as much food—two o
mers per person—and all the leaders of the congregation ca
me and reported this to Moses."
Exodus 16:21 Every morning each one gathered as much as was needed, and when the sun grew hot, it
melted away.
Exodus 16:20 But they did not listen to Moses; so
me people left part of it until morning, and it beca
me infested with maggots and began to s
mell. So Moses was angry with them.
Exodus 16:18 When they
measured it by the o
mer, he who gathered much had no excess, and he who gathered little had no shortfall. Each one gathered as much as he needed to eat.
Exodus 16:17 So the Israelites did this. So
me gathered more, and so
me less.
Exodus 16:16 This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Each one is to gather as much as he needs. You may take an o
mer for each person in your tent.’”"
Exodus 16:13 That evening quail ca
me and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp.
Exodus 16:12 “I have heard the grumbling of the Israelites. Tell them, ‘At twilight you will eat
meat, and in the morning you will be filled with bread. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God.’”"
Exodus 16:9 Then Moses said to Aaron, “Tell the whole congregation of Israel, ‘Co
me before the LORD, for He has heard your grumbling.’”"
Exodus 16:8 And Moses added, “The LORD will give you
meat to eat this evening and bread to fill you in the morning, for He has heard your grumbling against Him. Who are we? Your grumblings are not against us but against the LORD.”"
Exodus 16:3 “If only we had died by the LORD’s hand in the land of Egypt!” they said. “There we sat by pots of
meat and ate our fill of bread, but you have brought us into this desert to starve this whole assembly to death!”"
Exodus 16:1 On the fifteenth day of the second month after they had left the land of Egypt, the whole congregation of Israel set out from Elim and ca
me to the Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai.
Exodus 15:27 Then they ca
me to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees, and they camped there by the waters.
♫2 Exodus 15:23 And when they ca
me to Marah, they could not drink the water there because it was bitter. (That is why it was na
med Marah.)
♫2 Exodus 15:20 Then Miriam the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took a tambourine in her hand, and all the wo
men followed her with tambourines and dancing."
♫2 Exodus 15:19 For when Pharaoh’s horses, chariots, and horse
men went into the sea, the LORD brought the waters of the sea back over them. But the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground."
♫2 Exodus 15:15 Then the chiefs of Edom will be dismayed; trembling will seize the leaders of Moab; those who dwell in Canaan will
melt away,
♫2 Exodus 15:13 With loving devotion You will lead the people You have redee
med; with Your strength You will guide them to Your holy dwelling.
♫2 Exodus 15:7 You overthrew Your adversaries by Your great majesty. You unleashed Your burning wrath; it consu
med them like stubble.
♫2 Exodus 15:2 The LORD is my strength and my song, and He has beco
me my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise Him, my father’s God, and I will exalt Him."
♫2 Exodus 14:28 The waters flowed back and covered the chariots and horse
men—the entire army of Pharaoh that had chased the Israelites into the sea. Not one of them survived."
Exodus 14:26 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, so that the waters may flow back over the Egyptians and their chariots and horse
men.”"
Exodus 14:23 And the Egyptians chased after them—all Pharaoh’s horses, chariots, and horse
men—and followed them into the sea."
Exodus 14:20 so that it ca
me between the camps of Egypt and Israel. The cloud was there in the darkness, but it lit up the night. So all night long neither camp went near the other.
Exodus 14:18 The Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I am honored through Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horse
men.”"
Exodus 14:17 And I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them. Then I will gain honor by
means of Pharaoh and all his army and chariots and horse
men.
Exodus 14:15 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to
Me? Tell the Israelites to go forward."
Exodus 14:9 The Egyptians—all Pharaoh’s horses and chariots, horse
men and troops—pursued the Israelites and overtook them as they camped by the sea near Pi-hahiroth, opposite Baal-zephon."
Exodus 14:4 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart so that he will pursue them. But I will gain honor by
means of Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD.” So this is what the Israelites did."
Exodus 13:14 In the future, when your son asks you, ‘What does this
mean?’ you are to tell him, ‘With a mighty hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of slavery."
Exodus 13:10 Therefore you shall keep this statute at the appointed ti
me year after year.
Exodus 13:8 And on that day you are to explain to your son, ‘This is because of what the LORD did for
me when I ca
me out of Egypt.’"
Exodus 13:3 So Moses told the people, “Re
member this day, the day you ca
me out of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; for the LORD brought you out of it by the strength of His hand. And nothing leavened shall be eaten."
Exodus 13:2 “Consecrate to
Me every firstborn male. The firstborn from every womb among the Israelites belongs to
Me, both of man and beast.”"
Exodus 12:49 The sa
me law shall apply to both the native and the foreigner who resides among you.”"
Exodus 12:48 If a foreigner resides with you and wants to celebrate the LORD’s Passover, all the males in the household must be circumcised; then he may co
me near to celebrate it, and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised man may eat of it."
Exodus 12:46 It must be eaten inside one house. You are not to take any of the
meat outside the house, and you may not break any of the bones.
Exodus 12:42 Because the LORD kept a vigil that night to bring them out of the land of Egypt, this sa
me night is to be a vigil to the LORD, to be observed by all the Israelites for the generations to co
me.
Exodus 12:37 The Israelites journeyed from Ra
meses to Succoth with about 600,000
men on foot, besides wo
men and children.
Exodus 12:32 Take your flocks and herds as well, just as you have said, and depart! And bless
me also.”"
Exodus 12:30 During the night Pharaoh got up—he and all his officials and all the Egyptians—and there was loud wailing in Egypt; for there was no house without so
meone dead."
Exodus 12:27 you are to reply, ‘It is the Passover sacrifice to the LORD, who passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt when He struck down the Egyptians and spared our ho
mes.’” Then the people bowed down and worshiped."
Exodus 12:26 When your children ask you, ‘What does this service
mean to you?’"
Exodus 12:23 When the LORD passes through to strike down the Egyptians, He will see the blood on the top and sides of the doorfra
me and will pass over that doorway; so He will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down.
Exodus 12:22 Take a cluster of hyssop, dip it into the blood in the basin, and brush the blood on the top and sides of the doorfra
me. None of you shall go out the door of his house until morning.
Exodus 12:20 You are not to eat anything leavened; eat unleavened bread in all your ho
mes.”"
Exodus 12:19 For seven days there must be no leaven found in your houses. If anyone eats so
mething leavened, that person, whether a foreigner or native of the land, must be cut off from the congregation of Israel.
Exodus 12:17 So you are to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this very day I brought your divisions out of the land of Egypt. You must keep this day as a permanent statute for the generations to co
me.
Exodus 12:16 On the first day you are to hold a sacred assembly, and another on the seventh day. You must not do any work on those days, except to prepare the
meals—that is all you may do."
Exodus 12:14 And this day will be a
memorial for you, and you are to celebrate it as a feast to the LORD, as a permanent statute for the generations to co
me.
Exodus 12:12 On that night I will pass through the land of Egypt and strike down every firstborn male, both man and beast, and I will execute judg
ment against all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD.
Exodus 12:9 Do not eat any of the
meat raw or cooked in boiling water, but only roasted over the fire—its head and legs and inner parts."
Exodus 12:8 They are to eat the
meat that night, roasted over the fire, along with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
Exodus 12:7 They are to take so
me of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorfra
mes of the houses where they eat the lambs.
Exodus 11:8 And all these officials of yours will co
me and bow before
me, saying, ‘Go, you and all the people who follow you!’ After that, I will depart.” And hot with anger, Moses left Pharaoh’s presence."
Exodus 11:2 Now announce to the people that
men and wo
men alike should ask their neighbors for articles of silver and gold.”"
Exodus 10:28 “Depart from
me!” Pharaoh said to Moses. “Make sure you never see my face again, for on the day you see my face, you will die.”"
Exodus 10:26 Even our livestock must go with us; not a hoof will be left behind, for we will need so
me of them to worship the LORD our God, and we will not know how we are to worship the LORD until we arrive.”"
Exodus 10:17 Now please forgive my sin once more and appeal to the LORD your God, that He may remove this death from
me.”"
Exodus 10:15 They covered the face of all the land until it was black, and they consu
med all the plants on the ground and all the fruit on the trees that the hail had left behind. Nothing green was left on any tree or plant in all the land of Egypt.
Exodus 10:14 The locusts swar
med across the land and settled over the entire territory of Egypt. Never before had there been so many locusts, and never again will there be.
Exodus 10:11 No, only the
men may go and worship the LORD, since that is what you have been requesting.” And Moses and Aaron were driven from Pharaoh’s presence."
Exodus 10:6 They will fill your houses and the houses of all your officials and every Egyptian—so
mething neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen since the day they ca
me into this land.’” Then Moses turned and left Pharaoh’s presence."
Exodus 10:3 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and told him, “This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before
Me? Let My people go, so that they may worship
Me."
Exodus 10:2 and that you may tell your children and grandchildren how severely I dealt with the Egyptians when I perfor
med miraculous signs among them, so that all of you may know that I am the LORD.”"
Exodus 9:27 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron. “This ti
me I have sinned,” he said. “The LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked."
Exodus 9:24 The hail fell and the lightning continued flashing through it. The hail was so severe that nothing like it had ever been seen in all the land of Egypt from the ti
me it beca
me a nation.
Exodus 9:19 So give orders now to shelter your livestock and everything you have in the field. Every man or beast that remains in the field and is not brought inside will die when the hail co
mes down upon them.’”"
Exodus 9:18 Behold, at this ti
me tomorrow I will rain down the worst hail that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded until now.
Exodus 9:16 But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power to you, and that My na
me might be proclai
med in all the earth.
Exodus 9:15 For by this ti
me I could have stretched out My hand and struck you and your people with a plague to wipe you off the earth.
Exodus 9:14 Otherwise, I will send all My plagues against you and your officials and your people, so you may know that there is no one like
Me in all the earth.
Exodus 9:13 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, stand before Pharaoh, and tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship
Me."
Exodus 9:9 It will beco
me fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on man and beast throughout the land.”"
Exodus 9:5 The LORD set a ti
me, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD will do this in the land.”"
Exodus 9:3 then the hand of the LORD will bring a severe plague on your livestock in the field—on your horses, donkeys, ca
mels, herds, and flocks."
Exodus 9:1 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship
Me."
Exodus 8:32 But Pharaoh hardened his heart this ti
me as well, and he would not let the people go.
Exodus 8:28 Pharaoh answered, “I will let you go and sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness, but you must not go very far. Now pray for
me.”"
Exodus 8:22 But on that day I will give special treat
ment to the land of Goshen, where My people live; no swarms of flies will be found there. In this way you will know that I, the LORD, am in the land.
Exodus 8:20 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, and when Pharaoh goes out to the water, stand before him and tell him that this is what the LORD says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship
Me."
Exodus 8:17 This they did, and when Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, gnats ca
me upon man and beast. All the dust of the earth turned into gnats throughout the land of Egypt.
Exodus 8:9 Moses said to Pharaoh, “You may have the honor over
me. When shall I pray for you and your officials and your people that the frogs (except for those in the Nile) may be taken away from you and your houses?”"
Exodus 8:8 Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Pray to the LORD to take the frogs away from
me and my people. Then I will let your people go, that they may sacrifice to the LORD.”"
Exodus 8:7 But the magicians did the sa
me thing by their magic arts, and they also brought frogs up onto the land of Egypt.
Exodus 8:6 So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs ca
me up and covered the land of Egypt.
Exodus 8:5 And the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your staff over the rivers and canals and ponds, and cause the frogs to co
me up onto the land of Egypt.’”"
Exodus 8:4 The frogs will co
me up on you and your people and all your officials.’”"
Exodus 8:3 The Nile will teem with frogs, and they will co
me into your palace and up to your bedroom and onto your bed, into the houses of your officials and your people, and into your ovens and kneading bowls.
Exodus 8:1 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him that this is what the LORD says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship
Me."
Exodus 7:22 But the magicians of Egypt did the sa
me things by their magic arts. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said."
Exodus 7:21 The fish in the Nile died, and the river s
melled so bad that the Egyptians could not drink its water. And there was blood throughout the land of Egypt.
Exodus 7:19 And the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your staff and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt—over their rivers and canals and ponds and reservoirs—that they may beco
me blood.’ There will be blood throughout the land of Egypt, even in the vessels of wood and stone.”"
Exodus 7:16 Then say to him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent
me to tell you: Let My people go, so that they may worship
Me in the wilderness. But you have not listened until now."
Exodus 7:15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning as you see him walking out to the water. Wait on the bank of the Nile to
meet him, and take in your hand the staff that was changed into a snake.
Exodus 7:12 Each one threw down his staff, and it beca
me a serpent. But Aaron’s staff swallowed up the other staffs."
Exodus 7:11 But Pharaoh called the wise
men and sorcerers and magicians of Egypt, and they also did the sa
me things by their magic arts.
Exodus 7:10 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the LORD had commanded. Aaron threw his staff down before Pharaoh and his officials, and it beca
me a serpent.
Exodus 7:9 “When Pharaoh tells you, ‘Perform a miracle,’ you are to say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,’ and it will beco
me a serpent.”"
Exodus 7:4 Pharaoh will not listen to you. Then I will lay My hand on Egypt, and by mighty acts of judg
ment I will bring the divisions of My people the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.
Exodus 6:30 But in the LORD’s presence Moses replied, “Since I am unskilled in speech, why would Pharaoh listen to
me?”"
Exodus 6:19 The sons of
Merari were Mahli and Mushi. These were the clans of the Levites according to their records.
Exodus 6:17 The sons of Gershon were Libni and Shi
mei, by their clans.
Exodus 6:16 These were the na
mes of the sons of Levi according to their records: Gershon, Kohath, and
Merari. Levi lived 137 years.
Exodus 6:15 The sons of Si
meon were Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman. These were the clans of Si
meon.
Exodus 6:12 But in the LORD’s presence Moses replied, “If the Israelites will not listen to
me, then why would Pharaoh listen to
me, since I am unskilled in speech?”"
Exodus 6:9 Moses relayed this
message to the Israelites, but on account of their broken spirit and cruel bondage, they did not listen to him.
Exodus 6:6 Therefore tell the Israelites: ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians and deliver you from their bondage. I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judg
ment."
Exodus 6:5 Furthermore, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have re
membered My covenant.
Exodus 6:3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by My na
me the LORD I did not make Myself known to them.
Exodus 5:23 Ever since I went to Pharaoh to speak in Your na
me, he has brought trouble on this people, and You have not delivered Your people in any way.”"
Exodus 5:22 So Moses returned to the LORD and asked, “Lord, why have You brought trouble upon this people? Is this why You sent
me?"
Exodus 5:21 “May the LORD look upon you and judge you,” the fore
men said, “for you have made us a stench before Pharaoh and his officials; you have placed in their hand a sword to kill us!”"
Exodus 5:20 When they left Pharaoh, they confronted Moses and Aaron, who stood waiting to
meet them.
Exodus 5:19 The Israelite fore
men realized they were in trouble when they were told, “You must not reduce your daily quota of bricks.”"
Exodus 5:15 So the Israelite fore
men went and appealed to Pharaoh: “Why are you treating your servants this way?"
Exodus 5:14 Then the Israelite fore
men, whom Pharaoh’s taskmasters had set over the people, were beaten and asked, “Why have you not fulfilled your quota of bricks yesterday or today, as you did before?”"
Exodus 5:10 So the taskmasters and fore
men of the people went out and said to them, “This is what Pharaoh says: ‘I am no longer giving you straw."
Exodus 5:9 Make the work harder on the
men so they will be occupied and pay no attention to these lies.”"
Exodus 5:8 But require of them the sa
me quota of bricks as before; do not reduce it. For they are lazy; that is why they are crying out, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to our God.’"
Exodus 5:6 That sa
me day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their fore
men:
Exodus 5:5 Pharaoh also said, “Look, the people of the land are now nu
merous, and you would be stopping them from their labor.”"
Exodus 5:3 “The God of the Hebrews has
met with us,” they answered. “Please let us go on a three-day journey into the wilderness to sacrifice to the LORD our God, or He may strike us with plagues or with the sword.”"
Exodus 5:1 After that, Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may hold a feast to
Me in the wilderness.’”"
Exodus 4:30 and Aaron relayed everything the LORD had said to Moses. And Moses perfor
med the signs before the people,
Exodus 4:27 Meanwhile, the LORD had said to Aaron, “Go and
meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and
met Moses at the mountain of God and kissed him."
Exodus 4:25 But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin, and touched it to Moses’ feet. “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to
me,” she said."
Exodus 4:24 Now at a lodging place along the way, the LORD
met Moses and was about to kill him.
Exodus 4:23 and I told you to let My son go so that he may worship
Me. But since you have refused to let him go, behold, I will kill your firstborn son!’”"
Exodus 4:19 Now the LORD had said to Moses in Midian, “Go back to Egypt, for all the
men who sought to kill you are dead.”"
Exodus 4:18 Then Moses went back to his father-in-law Jethro and said to him, “Please let
me return to my brothers in Egypt to see if they are still alive.” “Go in peace,” Jethro replied."
Exodus 4:14 Then the anger of the LORD burned against Moses, and He said, “Is not Aaron the Levite your brother? I know that he can speak well, and he is now on his way to
meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart."
Exodus 4:13 But Moses replied, “Please, Lord, send so
meone else.”"
Exodus 4:9 But if they do not believe even these two signs or listen to your voice, take so
me water from the Nile and pour it on the dry ground. Then the water you take from the Nile will beco
me blood on the ground.”"
Exodus 4:3 “Throw it on the ground,” said the LORD. So Moses threw it on the ground, and it beca
me a snake, and he ran from it."
Exodus 4:1 Then Moses answered, “What if they do not believe
me or listen to my voice? For they may say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.’”"
Exodus 3:18 The elders of Israel will listen to what you say, and you must go with them to the king of Egypt and tell him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has
met with us. Now please let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness, so that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.’"
Exodus 3:16 Go, assemble the elders of Israel and say to them, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—has appeared to
me and said: I have surely attended to you and have seen what has been done to you in Egypt."
Exodus 3:15 God also told Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—has sent
me to you.’ This is My na
me forever, and this is how I am to be re
membered in every generation."
Exodus 3:14 God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent
me to you.’”"
Exodus 3:13 Then Moses asked God, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent
me to you,’ and they ask
me, ‘What is His na
me?’ What should I tell them?”"
Exodus 3:9 And now the cry of the Israelites has reached
Me, and I have seen how severely the Egyptians are oppressing them.
Exodus 3:8 I have co
me down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the ho
me of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites."
Exodus 3:5 “Do not co
me any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”"
Exodus 3:2 There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a blazing fire from within a bush. Moses saw the bush ablaze with fire, but it was not consu
med.
Exodus 3:1 Meanwhile, Moses was shepherding the flock of his father-in-law Jethro, the priest of Midian. He led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and ca
me to Horeb, the mountain of God.
Exodus 2:24 So God heard their groaning, and He re
membered His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Exodus 2:23 After a long ti
me, the king of Egypt died. The Israelites groaned and cried out under their burden of slavery, and their cry for deliverance from bondage ascended to God.
Exodus 2:22 And she gave birth to a son, and Moses na
med him Gershom, saying, “I have beco
me a foreigner in a foreign land.”"
Exodus 2:20 “So where is he?” their father asked. “Why did you leave the man behind? Invite him to have so
mething to eat.”"
Exodus 2:17 And when so
me shepherds ca
me along and drove them away, Moses rose up to help them and watered their flock.
Exodus 2:16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters, and they ca
me to draw water and fill the troughs to water their father’s flock."
Exodus 2:14 But the man replied, “Who made you ruler and judge over us? Are you planning to kill
me as you killed the Egyptian?” Then Moses was afraid and thought, “This thing I have done has surely beco
me known.”"
Exodus 2:10 When the child had grown older, she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he beca
me her son. She na
med him Moses and explained, “I drew him out of the water.”"
Exodus 2:9 Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child and nurse him for
me, and I will pay your wages.” So the woman took the boy and nursed him."
Exodus 2:7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Shall I go and call one of the Hebrew wo
men to nurse the child for you?”"
Exodus 1:20 So God was good to the midwives, and the people multiplied and beca
me even more nu
merous.
Exodus 1:19 The midwives answered Pharaoh, “The Hebrew wo
men are not like the Egyptian wo
men, for they are vigorous and give birth before a midwife arrives.”"
Exodus 1:16 “When you help the Hebrew wo
men give birth, observe them on the birthstools. If the child is a son, kill him; but if it is a daughter, let her live.”"
Exodus 1:15 Then the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, whose na
mes were Shiphrah and Puah,
Exodus 1:12 But the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and flourished; so the Egyptians ca
me to dread the Israelites.
Exodus 1:11 So the Egyptians appointed taskmasters over the Israelites to oppress them with forced labor. As a result, they built Pithom and Ra
meses as store cities for Pharaoh.
Exodus 1:10 Co
me, let us deal shrewdly with them, or they will increase even more; and if a war breaks out, they may join our enemies, fight against us, and leave the country.”"
Exodus 1:9 “Look,” he said to his people, “the Israelites have beco
me too nu
merous and too powerful for us."
Exodus 1:8 Then a new king, who did not know Joseph, ca
me to power in Egypt.
Exodus 1:7 but the Israelites were fruitful and increased rapidly; they multiplied and beca
me exceedingly nu
merous, so that the land was filled with them.
Exodus 1:1 These are the na
mes of the sons of Israel who went to Egypt with Jacob, each with his family:
Genesis 50:26 So Joseph died at the age of 110. And they embal
med his body and placed it in a coffin in Egypt.
Genesis 50:20 As for you, what you intended against
me for evil, God intended for good, in order to accomplish a day like this—to preserve the lives of many people."
Genesis 50:18 His brothers also ca
me to him, bowed down before him, and said, “We are your slaves!”"
Genesis 50:17 ‘This is what you are to say to Joseph: I beg you, please forgive the transgression and sin of your brothers, for they did you wrong.’ So now, Joseph, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father.” When their
message ca
me to him, Joseph wept."
Genesis 50:10 When they reached the threshing floor of Atad, which is across the Jordan, they la
mented and wailed loudly, and Joseph mourned for his father seven days.
Genesis 50:9 Chariots and horse
men alike went up with him, and it was an exceedingly large procession.
Genesis 50:5 my father made
me swear an oath when he said, ‘I am about to die. You must bury
me in the tomb that I dug for myself in the land of Canaan.’ Now let
me go and bury my father, and then return.”"
Genesis 50:2 And Joseph directed the physicians in his service to embalm his father Israel. So they embal
med him,
Genesis 49:29 Then Jacob instructed them, “I am about to be gathered to my people. Bury
me with my fathers in the cave in the field of Ephron the Hittite."
Genesis 49:24 Yet he steadied his bow, and his strong arms were tempered by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, in the na
me of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,
Genesis 49:23 The archers attacked him with bitterness; they ai
med at him in hostility.
Genesis 49:13 Zebulun shall dwell by the seashore and beco
me a harbor for ships; his border shall extend to Sidon.
Genesis 49:11 He ties his donkey to the vine, his colt to the choicest branch. He washes his gar
ments in wine, his robes in the blood of grapes.
Genesis 49:10 The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the staff from between his feet, until Shiloh co
mes and the allegiance of the nations is his.
♫ Genesis 49:6 May I never enter their council; may I never join their assembly. For they kill
men in their anger, and hamstring oxen on a whim.
Genesis 49:5 Si
meon and Levi are brothers; their swords are weapons of violence.
Genesis 49:2 Co
me together and listen, O sons of Jacob; listen to your father Israel.
Genesis 49:1 Then Jacob called for his sons and said, “Gather around so that I can tell you what will happen to you in the days to co
me:"
Genesis 48:19 But his father refused. “I know, my son, I know!” he said. “He too shall beco
me a people, and he too shall be great; nevertheless, his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his offspring shall beco
me a multitude of nations.”"
Genesis 48:16 the angel who has redee
med
me from all harm—may He bless these boys. And may they be called by my na
me and the na
mes of my fathers Abraham and Isaac, and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.”"
Genesis 48:11 “I never expected to see your face again,” Israel said to Joseph, “but now God has let
me see your children as well.”"
Genesis 48:9 Joseph said to his father, “They are the sons God has given
me in this place.” So Jacob said, “Please bring them to
me, that I may bless them.”"
Genesis 48:7 Now as for
me, when I was returning from Paddan, to my sorrow Rachel died along the way in the land of Canaan, so
me distance from Ephrath. So I buried her there beside the road to Ephrath” (that is, Bethlehem)."
Genesis 48:6 Any children born to you after them shall be yours, and they shall be called by the na
mes of their brothers in the territory they inherit.
Genesis 48:5 And now your two sons born to you in Egypt before I ca
me to you here shall be reckoned as mine; Ephraim and Manasseh shall be mine, just as Reuben and Si
meon are mine.
Genesis 48:4 and told
me, ‘Behold, I will make you fruitful and multiply you; I will make you a multitude of peoples, and will give this land to your descendants after you as an everlasting possession.’"
Genesis 48:3 Jacob said to Joseph, “God Almighty appeared to
me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and there He blessed
me"
Genesis 48:2 When Jacob was told, “Your son Joseph has co
me to you,” Israel rallied his strength and sat up in bed."
Genesis 48:1 So
me ti
me later Joseph was told, “Your father is ill.” So he set out with his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim."
Genesis 47:31 “Swear to
me,” Jacob said. So Joseph swore to him, and Israel bowed in worship at the head of his bed."
Genesis 47:30 but when I lie down with my fathers, carry
me out of Egypt and bury
me with them.” Joseph answered, “I will do as you have requested.”"
Genesis 47:29 When the ti
me drew near for Israel to die, he called his son Joseph and said to him, “If I have found favor in your eyes, put your hand under my thigh and promise to show
me kindness and faithfulness. Do not bury
me in Egypt,"
Genesis 47:27 Now the Israelites settled in the land of Egypt, in the region of Goshen. They acquired property there and beca
me fruitful and increased greatly in number.
Genesis 47:24 At harvest ti
me, you are to give a fifth of it to Pharaoh, and four-fifths will be yours as seed for the field and food for yourselves and your households and children.”"
Genesis 47:20 So Joseph acquired for Pharaoh all the land in Egypt; the Egyptians, one and all, sold their fields because the famine was so severe upon them. The land beca
me Pharaoh’s,"
Genesis 47:19 Why should we perish before your eyes—we and our land as well? Purchase us and our land in exchange for food. Then we, along with our land, will be slaves to Pharaoh. Give us seed that we may live and not die, and that the land may not beco
me desolate.”"
Genesis 47:18 When that year was over, they ca
me to him the second year and said, “We cannot hide from our lord that our money is gone and all our livestock belongs to you. There is nothing left for our lord except our bodies and our land."
Genesis 47:16 “Then bring
me your livestock,” said Joseph. “Since the money is gone, I will sell you food in exchange for your livestock.”"
Genesis 47:15 When the money from the lands of Egypt and Canaan was gone, all the Egyptians ca
me to Joseph and said, “Give us food. Why should we die before your eyes? For our funds have run out!”"
Genesis 47:11 So Joseph settled his father and brothers in the land of Egypt and gave them property in the best part of the land, the district of Ra
meses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Genesis 47:6 the land of Egypt is before you; settle your father and brothers in the best part of the land. They may dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know of any talented
men among them, put them in charge of my own livestock.”"
Genesis 47:5 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Now that your father and brothers have co
me to you,"
Genesis 47:4 Then they said to Pharaoh, “We have co
me to live in the land for a ti
me, because there is no pasture for the flocks of your servants, since the famine in the land of Canaan has been severe. So now, please allow your servants to settle in the land of Goshen.”"
Genesis 47:1 So Joseph went and told Pharaoh: “My father and my brothers, with their flocks and herds and all they own, have co
me from the land of Canaan and are now in Goshen.”"
Genesis 46:32 The
men are shepherds; they raise livestock, and they have brought their flocks and herds and all that they own.’"
Genesis 46:31 Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, “I will go up and inform Pharaoh: ‘My brothers and my father’s household from the land of Canaan have co
me to
me."
Genesis 46:29 Joseph prepared his chariot and went there to
meet his father Israel. Joseph presented himself to him, embraced him, and wept profusely.
Genesis 46:27 And with the two sons who had been born to Joseph in Egypt, the
members of Jacob’s family who went to Egypt were seventy in all."
Genesis 46:26 All those belonging to Jacob who ca
me to Egypt—his direct descendants, besides the wives of Jacob’s sons—numbered sixty-six persons."
Genesis 46:10 The sons of Si
meon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanite woman.
Genesis 46:8 Now these are the na
mes of the sons of Israel (Jacob and his descendants) who went to Egypt: Reuben, Jacob’s firstborn."
Genesis 46:1 So Israel set out with all that he had, and when he ca
me to Beersheba, he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
Genesis 45:25 So the brothers went up out of Egypt and ca
me to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan.
Genesis 45:22 He gave new gar
ments to each of them, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred shekels of silver and five sets of clothes.
Genesis 45:19 You are also directed to tell them: ‘Take wagons from the land of Egypt for your young children and your wives, and bring your father and co
me back."
Genesis 45:18 Then bring your father and your families and return to
me. I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you shall eat from the fat of the land.’"
Genesis 45:16 When the news reached Pharaoh’s house that Joseph’s brothers had co
me, Pharaoh and his servants were pleased."
Genesis 45:11 And there I will provide for you, because there will be five more years of famine. Otherwise, you and your household and everything you own will co
me to destitution.’"
Genesis 45:10 You shall settle in the land of Goshen and be near
me—you and your children and grandchildren, your flocks and herds, and everything you own."
Genesis 45:9 Now return quickly to my father and tell him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: God has made
me lord of all Egypt. Co
me down to
me without delay."
Genesis 45:8 Therefore it was not you who sent
me here, but God, who has made
me a father to Pharaoh—lord of all his household and ruler over all the land of Egypt."
Genesis 45:7 God sent
me before you to preserve you as a remnant on the earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
Genesis 45:5 And now, do not be distressed or angry with yourselves that you sold
me into this place, because it was to save lives that God sent
me before you.
Genesis 45:4 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Please co
me near
me.” And they did so. “I am Joseph, your brother,” he said, “the one you sold into Egypt!"
Genesis 45:1 Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all his attendants, and he cried out, “Send everyone away from
me!” So none of them were with Joseph when he made himself known to his brothers."
Genesis 44:29 Now if you also take this one from
me and harm co
mes to him, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.’"
Genesis 44:27 And your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife bore
me two sons."
Genesis 44:25 Then our father said, ‘Go back and buy us so
me food.’"
Genesis 44:23 But you said to your servants, ‘Unless your younger brother co
mes down with you, you will not see my face again.’"
Genesis 44:21 Then you told your servants, ‘Bring him down to
me so that I can see him for myself.’"
Genesis 44:17 But Joseph replied, “Far be it from
me to do this. The man who was found with the cup will be my slave. The rest of you may return to your father in peace.”"
Genesis 44:15 “What is this deed you have done?” Joseph declared. “Do you not know that a man like
me can surely divine the truth?”"
Genesis 44:10 “As you say,” replied the steward. “But only the one who is found with the cup will be my slave, and the rest of you shall be free of bla
me.”"
Genesis 44:9 If any of your servants is found to have it, he must die, and the rest will beco
me slaves of my lord.”"
Genesis 44:4 They had not gone far from the city when Joseph told his steward, “Pursue the
men at once, and when you overtake them, ask, ‘Why have you repaid good with evil?"
Genesis 44:3 At daybreak, the
men were sent on their way with their donkeys.
Genesis 44:1 Then Joseph instructed his steward: “Fill the
men’s sacks with as much food as they can carry, and put each one’s silver in the mouth of his sack."
Genesis 43:34 When the portions were served to them from Joseph’s table, Benjamin’s portion was five ti
mes larger than any of the others. So they feasted and drank freely with Joseph."
Genesis 43:33 They were seated before Joseph in order by age, from the firstborn to the youngest, and the
men looked at one another in astonish
ment.
Genesis 43:31 Then he washed his face and ca
me back out. Regaining his composure, he said, “Serve the
meal.”"
Genesis 43:29 When Joseph looked up and saw his brother Benjamin, his own mother’s son, he asked, “Is this your youngest brother, the one you told
me about?” Then he declared, “May God be gracious to you, my son.”"
Genesis 43:27 He asked if they were well, and then he asked, “How is your elderly father you told
me about? Is he still alive?”"
Genesis 43:26 When Joseph ca
me ho
me, they presented him with the gifts they had brought, and they bowed to the ground before him.
Genesis 43:25 Since the brothers had been told that they were going to eat a
meal there, they prepared their gift for Joseph’s arrival at noon."
Genesis 43:24 And the steward took the
men into Joseph’s house, gave them water to wash their feet, and provided food for their donkeys."
Genesis 43:23 “It is fine,” said the steward. “Do not be afraid. Your God, the God of your father, gave you the treasure that was in your sacks. I received your silver.” Then he brought Si
meon out to them."
Genesis 43:21 But when we ca
me to the place we lodged for the night, we opened our sacks and, behold, each of us found his silver in the mouth of his sack! It was the full amount of our silver, and we have brought it back with us.
Genesis 43:20 “Please, sir,” they said, “we really did co
me down here the first ti
me to buy food."
Genesis 43:18 But the brothers were frightened that they had been taken to Joseph’s house. “We have been brought here because of the silver that was returned in our bags the first ti
me,” they said. “They intend to overpower us and take us as slaves, along with our donkeys.”"
Genesis 43:16 When Joseph saw Benjamin with his brothers, he said to the steward of his house, “Take these
men to my house. Slaughter an animal and prepare it, for they shall dine with
me at noon.”"
Genesis 43:15 So the
men took these gifts, along with double the amount of silver, and Benjamin as well. Then they hurried down to Egypt and stood before Joseph.
Genesis 43:14 May God Almighty grant you
mercy before the man, that he may release your other brother along with Benjamin. As for
me, if I am bereaved, I am bereaved.”"
Genesis 43:11 Then their father Israel said to them, “If it must be so, then do this: Put so
me of the best products of the land in your packs and carry them down as a gift for the man—a little balm and a little honey, spices and myrrh, pistachios and almonds."
Genesis 43:10 If we had not delayed, we could have co
me and gone twice by now.”"
Genesis 43:9 I will guarantee his safety. You may hold
me personally responsible. If I do not bring him back and set him before you, then may I bear the guilt before you all my life.
Genesis 43:8 And Judah said to his father Israel, “Send the boy with
me, and we will go at once, so that we may live and not die—neither we, nor you, nor our children."
Genesis 43:6 “Why did you bring this trouble upon
me?” Israel asked. “Why did you tell the man you had another brother?”"
Genesis 42:38 But Jacob replied, “My son will not go down there with you, for his brother is dead, and he alone is left. If any harm co
mes to him on your journey, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.”"
Genesis 42:36 Their father Jacob said to them, “You have deprived
me of my sons. Joseph is gone and Si
meon is no more. Now you want to take Benjamin. Everything is going against
me!”"
Genesis 42:34 But bring your youngest brother back to
me so I will know that you are not spies but honest
men. Then I will give your brother back to you, and you can trade in the land.’”"
Genesis 42:33 Then the man who is lord of the land said to us, ‘This is how I will know whether you are honest: Leave one brother with
me, take food to relieve the hunger of your households, and go."
Genesis 42:24 And he turned away from them and wept. When he turned back and spoke to them, he took Si
meon from them and had him bound before their eyes.
Genesis 42:21 Then they said to one another, “Surely we are being punished because of our brother. We saw his anguish when he pleaded with us, but we would not listen. That is why this distress has co
me upon us.”"
Genesis 42:20 Then bring your youngest brother to
me so that your words can be verified, that you may not die.” And to this they consented."
Genesis 42:15 And this is how you will be tested: As surely as Pharaoh lives, you shall not leave this place unless your youngest brother co
mes here.
Genesis 42:12 “No,” he told them. “You have co
me to see if our land is vulnerable.”"
Genesis 42:11 We are all sons of one man. Your servants are honest
men, not spies.”"
Genesis 42:10 “Not so, my lord,” they replied. “Your servants have co
me to buy food."
Genesis 42:9 Joseph re
membered his dreams about them and said, “You are spies! You have co
me to see if our land is vulnerable.”"
Genesis 42:7 And when Joseph saw his brothers, he recognized them, but he treated them as strangers and spoke harshly to them. “Where have you co
me from?” he asked. “From the land of Canaan,” they replied. “We are here to buy food.”"
Genesis 42:5 So the sons of Israel were among those who ca
me to buy grain, since the famine had also spread to the land of Canaan.
Genesis 42:2 “Look,” he added, “I have heard that there is grain in Egypt. Go down there and buy so
me for us, so that we may live and not die.”"
Genesis 41:57 And every nation ca
me to Joseph in Egypt to buy grain, because the famine was severe over all the earth.
Genesis 41:55 When extre
me hunger ca
me to all the land of Egypt and the people cried out to Pharaoh for food, he told all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph and do whatever he tells you.”"
Genesis 41:53 When the seven years of abundance in the land of Egypt ca
me to an end,
Genesis 41:52 And the second son he na
med Ephraim, saying, “God has made
me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”"
Genesis 41:51 Joseph na
med the firstborn Manasseh, saying, “God has made
me forget all my hardship and all my father’s household.”"
Genesis 41:49 So Joseph stored up grain in such abundance, like the sand of the sea, that he stopped keeping track of it; for it was beyond
measure.
Genesis 41:45 Pharaoh gave Joseph the na
me Zaphenath-paneah, and he gave him Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, to be his wife. And Joseph took charge of all the land of Egypt.
Genesis 41:43 He had Joseph ride in his second chariot, with
men calling out before him, “Bow the knee!” So he placed him over all the land of Egypt."
Genesis 41:42 Then Pharaoh removed the signet ring from his finger, put it on Joseph’s finger, clothed him in gar
ments of fine linen, and placed a gold chain around his neck."
Genesis 41:36 This food will be a reserve for the land during the seven years of famine to co
me upon the land of Egypt. Then the country will not perish in the famine.”"
Genesis 41:35 Under the authority of Pharaoh, let them collect all the excess food from these good years, that they may co
me and lay up the grain to be preserved as food in the cities.
Genesis 41:31 The abundance in the land will not be re
membered, since the famine that follows it will be so severe.
Genesis 41:27 Moreover, the seven thin, ugly cows that ca
me up after them are seven years, and so are the seven worthless heads of grain scorched by the east wind—they are seven years of famine."
Genesis 41:26 The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven ripe heads of grain are seven years. The dreams have the sa
me meaning.
Genesis 41:25 At this, Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dreams of Pharaoh are one and the sa
me. God has revealed to Pharaoh what He is about to do."
Genesis 41:24 And the thin heads of grain swallowed the seven plump ones. I told this dream to the magicians, but no one could explain it to
me.”"
Genesis 41:19 After them, seven other cows—sickly, ugly, and thin—ca
me up. I have never seen such ugly cows in all the land of Egypt!"
Genesis 41:18 when seven cows, well-fed and sleek, ca
me up from the river and began to graze among the reeds.
Genesis 41:11 One night both the chief baker and I had dreams, and each dream had its own
meaning.
Genesis 41:10 Pharaoh was once angry with his servants, and he put
me and the chief baker in the custody of the captain of the guard.
Genesis 41:8 In the morning his spirit was troubled, so he summoned all the magicians and wise
men of Egypt. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but no one could interpret them for him.
Genesis 41:5 but he fell back asleep and drea
med a second ti
me: Seven heads of grain, plump and ripe, ca
me up on one stalk.
Genesis 41:3 After them, seven other cows, sickly and thin, ca
me up from the Nile and stood beside the well-fed cows on the bank of the river.
Genesis 41:2 when seven cows, sleek and well-fed, ca
me up from the river and began to graze among the reeds.
Genesis 40:23 The chief cupbearer, however, did not re
member Joseph; he forgot all about him.
Genesis 40:15 For I was kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing for which they should have put
me in this dungeon.”"
Genesis 40:14 But when it goes well for you, please re
member
me and show
me kindness by
mentioning
me to Pharaoh, that he might bring
me out of this prison.
Genesis 40:9 So the chief cupbearer told Joseph his dream: “In my dream there was a vine before
me,"
Genesis 40:8 “We both had dreams,” they replied, “but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Tell
me your dreams.”"
Genesis 40:6 When Joseph ca
me to them in the morning, he saw that they were distraught.
Genesis 40:5 both of these
men—the Egyptian king’s cupbearer and baker, who were being held in the prison—had a dream on the sa
me night, and each dream had its own
meaning."
Genesis 40:4 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he beca
me their personal attendant. After they had been in custody for so
me ti
me,
Genesis 40:3 and imprisoned them in the house of the captain of the guard, the sa
me prison where Joseph was confined.
Genesis 40:1 So
me ti
me later, the king’s cupbearer and baker offended their master, the king of Egypt."
Genesis 39:19 When his master heard the story his wife told him, saying, “This is what your slave did to
me,” he burned with anger."
Genesis 39:18 but when I screa
med for help, he left his cloak beside
me and ran out of the house.”"
Genesis 39:17 Then she told him the sa
me story: “The Hebrew slave you brought us ca
me to
me to make sport of
me,"
Genesis 39:16 So Potiphar’s wife kept Joseph’s cloak beside her until his master ca
me ho
me."
Genesis 39:15 When he heard
me scream for help, he left his cloak beside
me and ran out of the house.”"
Genesis 39:14 she called her household servants. “Look,” she said, “this Hebrew has been brought to us to make sport of us. He ca
me to
me so he could sleep with
me, but I screa
med as loud as I could."
Genesis 39:12 She grabbed Joseph by his cloak and said, “Sleep with
me!” But leaving his cloak in her hand, he escaped and ran outside."
Genesis 39:9 No one in this house is greater than I am. He has withheld nothing from
me except you, because you are his wife. So how could I do such a great evil and sin against God?”"
Genesis 39:8 But he refused. “Look,” he said to his master’s wife, “with
me here, my master does not concern himself with anything in his house, and he has entrusted everything he owns to my care."
Genesis 39:7 and after so
me ti
me his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph and said, “Sleep with
me.”"
Genesis 39:6 So Potiphar left all that he owned in Joseph’s care; he did not concern himself with anything except the food he ate. Now Joseph was well-built and handso
me,"
Genesis 39:5 From the ti
me that he put Joseph in charge of his household and all he owned, the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s household on account of him. The LORD’s blessing was on everything he owned, both in his house and in his field."
Genesis 39:4 Joseph found favor in his sight and beca
me his personal attendant. Potiphar put him in charge of his household and entrusted him with everything he owned.
Genesis 39:2 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he beca
me a successful man, serving in the household of his Egyptian master.
Genesis 39:1 Meanwhile, Joseph had been taken down to Egypt, where an Egyptian na
med Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh and captain of the guard, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.
Genesis 38:30 Then his brother ca
me out with the scarlet thread around his wrist, and he was na
med Zerah.
Genesis 38:29 But when he pulled his hand back and his brother ca
me out, she said, “You have broken out first!” So he was na
med Perez."
Genesis 38:28 And as she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand; so the midwife took a scarlet thread and tied it around his wrist. “This one ca
me out first,” she announced."
Genesis 38:27 When the ti
me ca
me for Tamar to give birth, there were twins in her womb.
Genesis 38:25 As she was being brought out, Tamar sent a
message to her father-in-law: “I am pregnant by the man to whom these items belong.” And she added, “Please examine them. Whose seal and cord and staff are these?”"
Genesis 38:23 “Let her keep the items,” Judah replied. “Otherwise we will beco
me a laughingstock. After all, I did send her this young goat, but you could not find her.”"
Genesis 38:22 So Hirah returned to Judah and said, “I could not find her, and furthermore, the
men of that place said, ‘No shrine prostitute has been here.’”"
Genesis 38:21 He asked the
men of that place, “Where is the shrine prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim?” “No shrine prostitute has been here,” they answered."
Genesis 38:19 Then Tamar got up and departed. And she removed her veil and put on her widow’s gar
ments again."
Genesis 38:18 “What pledge should I give you?” he asked. She answered, “Your seal and your cord, and the staff in your hand.” So he gave them to her and slept with her, and she beca
me pregnant by him."
Genesis 38:17 “I will send you a young goat from my flock,” Judah answered. But she replied, “Only if you leave
me so
mething as a pledge until you send it.”"
Genesis 38:16 Not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, he went over to her and said, “Co
me now, let
me sleep with you.” “What will you give
me for sleeping with you?” she inquired."
Genesis 38:14 she removed her widow’s gar
ments, covered her face with a veil to disguise herself, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah. For she saw that although Shelah had grown up, she had not been given to him as a wife."
Genesis 38:12 After a long ti
me Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua, died. When Judah had finished mourning, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite went up to his sheepshearers at Timnah."
Genesis 38:6 Now Judah acquired a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her na
me was Tamar.
Genesis 38:5 Then she gave birth to another son and na
med him Shelah; it was at Chezib that she gave birth to him.
Genesis 38:4 Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she na
med him Onan.
Genesis 38:3 So she conceived and gave birth to a son, and Judah na
med him Er.
Genesis 38:2 There Judah saw the daughter of a Canaanite man na
med Shua, and he took her as a wife and slept with her.
Genesis 38:1 About that ti
me, Judah left his brothers and settled near a man na
med Hirah, an Adullamite.
Genesis 37:36 Meanwhile, the Midianites sold Joseph in Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh and captain of the guard.
Genesis 37:27 Co
me, let us sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay a hand on him; for he is our brother, our own flesh.” And they agreed."
Genesis 37:25 And as they sat down to eat a
meal, they looked up and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead. Their ca
mels were carrying spices, balm, and myrrh on their way down to Egypt.
Genesis 37:23 So when Joseph ca
me to his brothers, they stripped him of his robe—the robe of many colors he was wearing—"
Genesis 37:20 “Co
me now, let us kill him and throw him into one of the pits. We can say that a vicious animal has devoured him. Then we shall see what beco
mes of his dreams!”"
Genesis 37:19 “Here co
mes that drea
mer!” they said to one another."
Genesis 37:16 “I am looking for my brothers,” Joseph replied. “Can you please tell
me where they are pasturing their flocks?”"
Genesis 37:14 Then Israel told him, “Go now and see how your brothers and the flocks are faring, and bring word back to
me.” So he sent him off from the Valley of Hebron. And when Joseph arrived in Shechem,"
Genesis 37:12 So
me ti
me later, Joseph’s brothers had gone to pasture their father’s flocks near Shechem."
Genesis 37:10 He told his father and brothers, but his father rebuked him and said, “What is this dream that you have had? Will your mother and brothers and I actually co
me and bow down to the ground before you?”"
Genesis 37:9 Then Joseph had another dream and told it to his brothers. “Look,” he said, “I had another dream, and this ti
me the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to
me.”"
Genesis 37:8 “Do you intend to reign over us?” his brothers asked. “Will you actually rule us?” So they hated him even more because of his dream and his state
ments."
Genesis 36:43 Magdiel, and Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom, according to their settle
ments in the land they possessed. Esau was the father of the Edomites.
Genesis 36:40 These are the na
mes of Esau’s chiefs, according to their families and regions, by their na
mes: Chiefs Timna, Alvah, Jetheth,"
Genesis 36:39 When Baal-hanan son of Achbor died, Hadad reigned in his place. His city was na
med Pau, and his wife’s na
me was
Mehetabel daughter of Matred, the daughter of
Me-zahab."
Genesis 36:35 When Husham died, Hadad son of Bedad, who defeated Midian in the country of Moab, reigned in his place. And the na
me of his city was Avith.
Genesis 36:32 Bela son of Beor reigned in Edom; the na
me of his city was Dinhabah.
Genesis 36:10 These are the na
mes of Esau’s sons: Eliphaz son of Esau’s wife Adah, and Reuel son of Esau’s wife Basemath."
Genesis 35:23 The sons of Leah were Reuben the firstborn of Jacob, Si
meon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
Genesis 35:18 And with her last breath—for she was dying—she na
med him Ben-oni. But his father called him Benjamin."
Genesis 35:16 Later, they set out from Bethel, and while they were still so
me distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth, and her labor was difficult.
Genesis 35:11 And God told him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation—even a company of nations—shall co
me from you, and kings shall descend from you."
Genesis 35:10 And God said to him, “Though your na
me is Jacob, you will no longer be called Jacob. Instead, your na
me will be Israel.” So God na
med him Israel."
Genesis 35:8 Now Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died and was buried under the oak below Bethel. So Jacob na
med it Allon-bachuth."
Genesis 35:3 Then let us arise and go to Bethel. I will build an altar there to God, who answered
me in my day of distress. He has been with
me wherever I have gone.”"
Genesis 35:2 So Jacob told his household and all who were with him, “Get rid of the foreign gods that are among you. Purify yourselves and change your gar
ments."
Genesis 34:30 Then Jacob said to Si
meon and Levi, “You have brought trouble upon
me by making
me a stench to the Canaanites and Perizzites, the people of this land. We are few in number; if they unite against
me and attack
me, I and my household will be destroyed.”"
Genesis 34:29 They carried off all their possessions and wo
men and children, and they plundered everything in their houses.
Genesis 34:27 Jacob’s other sons ca
me upon the slaughter and looted the city, because their sister had been defiled."
Genesis 34:25 Three days later, while they were still in pain, two of Jacob’s sons (Dinah’s brothers Si
meon and Levi) took their swords, went into the unsuspecting city, and slaughtered every male."
Genesis 34:24 All the
men who went out of the city gate listened to Hamor and his son Shechem, and every male of the city was circumcised.
Genesis 34:23 Will not their livestock, their possessions, and all their animals beco
me ours? Only let us consent to them, and they will dwell among us.”"
Genesis 34:22 But only on this condition will the
men agree to dwell with us and be one people: if all our
men are circumcised as they are.
Genesis 34:21 “These
men are at peace with us. Let them live and trade in our land; indeed, it is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters in marriage and give our daughters to them."
Genesis 34:20 So Hamor and his son Shechem went to the gate of their city and addressed the
men of their city:
Genesis 34:18 Their offer see
med good to Hamor and his son Shechem.
Genesis 34:16 Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you and beco
me one people.
Genesis 34:15 We will consent to this on one condition, that you beco
me circumcised like us—every one of your males."
Genesis 34:12 Demand a high dowry and an expensive gift, and I will give you whatever you ask. Only give
me the girl as my wife!”"
Genesis 34:11 Then Shechem said to Dinah’s father and brothers, “Grant
me this favor, and I will give you whatever you ask."
Genesis 34:6 Meanwhile, Shechem’s father Hamor ca
me to speak with Jacob."
Genesis 34:4 So Shechem told his father Hamor, “Get
me this girl as a wife.”"
Genesis 33:18 After Jacob had co
me from Paddan-aram, he arrived safely at the city of Shechem in the land of Canaan, and he camped just outside the city.
Genesis 33:15 “Let
me leave so
me of my people with you,” Esau said. But Jacob replied, “Why do that? Let
me find favor in the sight of my lord.”"
Genesis 33:14 Please let my lord go ahead of his servant. I will continue on slowly, at a comfortable pace for the livestock and children, until I co
me to my lord at Seir.”"
Genesis 33:11 Please accept my gift that was brought to you, because God has been gracious to
me and I have all I need.” So Jacob pressed him until he accepted."
Genesis 33:10 But Jacob insisted, “No, please! If I have found favor in your sight, then receive this gift from my hand. For indeed, I have seen your face, and it is like seeing the face of God, since you have received
me favorably."
Genesis 33:8 “What do you
mean by sending this whole company to
meet
me?” asked Esau. “To find favor in your sight, my lord,” Jacob answered."
Genesis 33:5 When Esau looked up and saw the wo
men and children, he asked, “Who are these with you?” Jacob answered, “These are the children God has graciously given your servant.”"
Genesis 33:3 But Jacob himself went on ahead and bowed to the ground seven ti
mes as he approached his brother.
Genesis 33:1 Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming toward him with four hundred
men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants.
Genesis 32:30 So Jacob na
med the place Peniel, saying, “Indeed, I have seen God face to face, and yet my life was spared.”"
Genesis 32:29 And Jacob requested, “Please tell
me your na
me.” But he replied, “Why do you ask my na
me?” Then he blessed Jacob there."
Genesis 32:28 Then the man said, “Your na
me will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with
men, and you have prevailed.”"
Genesis 32:27 “What is your na
me?” the man asked. “Jacob,” he replied."
Genesis 32:26 Then the man said, “Let
me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless
me.”"
Genesis 32:20 You are also to say, ‘Look, your servant Jacob is right behind us.’” For he thought, “I will appease Esau with the gift that is going before
me. After that I can face him, and perhaps he will accept
me.”"
Genesis 32:19 He also instructed the second, the third, and all those following behind the herds: “When you
meet Esau, you are to say the sa
me thing to him."
Genesis 32:17 He instructed the one in the lead, “When my brother Esau
meets you and asks, ‘To whom do you belong, where are you going, and whose animals are these before you?’"
Genesis 32:16 He entrusted them to his servants in separate herds and told them, “Go on ahead of
me, and keep so
me distance between the herds.”"
Genesis 32:15 30 milk ca
mels with their young, 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 female donkeys, and 10 male donkeys.
Genesis 32:12 But You have said, ‘I will surely make you prosper, and I will make your offspring like the sand of the sea, too nu
merous to count.’”"
Genesis 32:11 Please deliver
me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am afraid that he may co
me and attack
me and the mothers and children with
me.
Genesis 32:10 I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness You have shown Your servant. Indeed, with only my staff I ca
me across the Jordan, but now I have beco
me two camps.
♫ Genesis 32:9 Then Jacob declared, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, the LORD who told
me, ‘Go back to your country and to your kindred, and I will make you prosper,’"
Genesis 32:8 He thought, “If Esau co
mes and attacks one camp, then the other camp can escape.”"
Genesis 32:7 In great fear and distress, Jacob divided his people into two camps, as well as the flocks and herds and ca
mels.
Genesis 32:6 When the
messengers returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother Esau, and now he is coming to
meet you—he and four hundred
men with him.”"
Genesis 32:5 I have oxen, donkeys, flocks,
menservants, and maidservants. I have sent this
message to inform my master, so that I may find favor in your sight.’”"
Genesis 32:3 Jacob sent
messengers ahead of him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
Genesis 32:2 When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is the camp of God.” So he na
med that place Mahanaim."
Genesis 32:1 Jacob also went on his way, and the angels of God
met him.
Genesis 31:55 Early the next morning, Laban got up and kissed his grandchildren and daughters and blessed them. Then he left to return ho
me.
Genesis 31:54 Then Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain and invited his relatives to eat a
meal. And after they had eaten, they spent the night on the mountain.
Genesis 31:52 This mound is a witness, and this pillar is a witness, that I will not go past this mound to harm you, and you will not go past this mound and pillar to harm
me.
Genesis 31:51 Laban also said to Jacob, “Here is the mound, and here is the pillar I have set up between you and
me."
Genesis 31:50 If you mistreat my daughters or take other wives, although no one is with us, re
member that God is a witness between you and
me.”"
Genesis 31:49 It was also called Mizpah, because Laban said, “May the LORD keep watch between you and
me when we are absent from each other."
Genesis 31:48 Then Laban declared, “This mound is a witness between you and
me this day.” Therefore the place was called Galeed."
Genesis 31:46 and he said to his relatives, “Gather so
me stones.” So they took stones and made a mound, and there by the mound they ate."
Genesis 31:44 Co
me now, let us make a covenant, you and I, and let it serve as a witness between you and
me.”"
Genesis 31:42 If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been with
me, surely by now you would have sent
me away empty-handed. But God has seen my affliction and the toil of my hands, and last night He rendered judg
ment.”"
Genesis 31:41 Thus for twenty years I have served in your household—fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flocks—and you have changed my wages ten ti
mes!"
Genesis 31:40 As it was, the heat consu
med
me by day and the frost by night, and sleep fled from my eyes.
Genesis 31:39 I did not bring you anything torn by wild beasts; I bore the loss myself. And you demanded pay
ment from
me for what was stolen by day or night.
Genesis 31:36 Then Jacob beca
me incensed and challenged Laban. “What is my cri
me?” he said. “For what sin of mine have you so hotly pursued
me?"
Genesis 31:34 Now Rachel had taken Laban’s household idols, put them in the saddlebag of her ca
mel, and was sitting on them. And Laban searched everything in the tent but found nothing."
Genesis 31:31 “I was afraid,” Jacob answered, “for I thought you would take your daughters from
me by force."
Genesis 31:29 I have power to do you great harm, but last night the God of your father said to
me, ‘Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.’"
Genesis 31:28 But you did not even let
me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters goodbye. Now you have done a foolish thing.
Genesis 31:27 Why did you run away secretly and deceive
me, without even telling
me? I would have sent you away with joy and singing, with tambourines and harps.
Genesis 31:26 Then Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have deceived
me and carried off my daughters like captives of war!"
Genesis 31:24 But that night God ca
me to Laban the Ara
mean in a dream and warned him, “Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”"
Genesis 31:22 On the third day Laban was infor
med that Jacob had fled.
Genesis 31:20 Moreover, Jacob deceived Laban the Ara
mean by not telling him that he was running away.
Genesis 31:17 Then Jacob got up and put his children and his wives on ca
mels,
Genesis 31:13 I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar and made a solemn vow to
Me. Now get up and leave this land at once, and return to your native land.’”"
Genesis 31:11 In that dream the angel of God said to
me, ‘Jacob!’ And I replied, ‘Here I am.’"
Genesis 31:9 Thus God has taken away your father’s livestock and given them to
me."
Genesis 31:7 And although he has cheated
me and changed my wages ten ti
mes, God has not allowed him to harm
me.
Genesis 31:5 and he told them, “I can see from your father’s countenance that his attitude toward
me has changed; but the God of my father has been with
me."
Genesis 30:43 Thus Jacob beca
me exceedingly prosperous. He owned large flocks, maidservants and
menservants, and ca
mels and donkeys.
Genesis 30:38 Then he set the peeled branches in the watering troughs in front of the flocks coming in to drink. So when the flocks were in heat and ca
me to drink,
Genesis 30:33 So my honesty will testify for
me when you co
me to check on my wages in the future. If I have any goats that are not speckled or spotted, or any lambs that are not dark-colored, they will be considered stolen.”"
Genesis 30:32 Let
me go through all your flocks today and remove from them every speckled or spotted sheep, every dark-colored lamb, and every spotted or speckled goat. These will be my wages.
Genesis 30:31 “What can I give you?” Laban asked. “You do not need to give
me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you do this one thing for
me, I will keep on shepherding and keeping your flocks."
Genesis 30:30 Indeed, you had very little before my arrival, but now your wealth has increased many ti
mes over. The LORD has blessed you wherever I set foot. But now, when may I also provide for my own household?”"
Genesis 30:28 And he added, “Na
me your wages, and I will pay them.”"
Genesis 30:27 But Laban replied, “If I have found favor in your eyes, please stay. I have learned by divination that the LORD has blessed
me because of you.”"
Genesis 30:26 Give
me my wives and children for whom I have served you, that I may go on my way. You know how hard I have worked for you.”"
Genesis 30:25 Now after Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send
me on my way so I can return to my ho
meland."
Genesis 30:24 She na
med him Joseph, and said, “May the LORD add to
me another son.”"
Genesis 30:23 and she conceived and gave birth to a son. “God has taken away my sha
me,” she said."
Genesis 30:22 Then God re
membered Rachel. He listened to her and opened her womb,
Genesis 30:21 After that, Leah gave birth to a daughter and na
med her Dinah.
Genesis 30:20 “God has given
me a good gift,” she said. “This ti
me my husband will honor
me, because I have borne him six sons.” And she na
med him Zebulun."
Genesis 30:18 Then Leah said, “God has rewarded
me for giving my maidservant to my husband.” So she na
med him Issachar."
Genesis 30:16 When Jacob ca
me in from the field that evening, Leah went out to
meet him and said, “You must co
me with
me, for I have hired you with my son’s mandrakes.” So he slept with her that night."
Genesis 30:14 Now during the wheat harvest, Reuben went out and found so
me mandrakes in the field. When he brought them to his mother, Rachel begged Leah, “Please give
me so
me of your son’s mandrakes.”"
Genesis 30:13 Leah said, “How happy I am! For the wo
men call
me happy.” So she na
med him Asher."
Genesis 30:11 Then Leah said, “How fortunate!” So she na
med him Gad."
Genesis 30:8 Then Rachel said, “In my great struggles, I have wrestled with my sister and won.” So she na
med him Naphtali."
Genesis 30:6 Then Rachel said, “God has vindicated
me; He has heard my plea and given
me a son.” So she na
med him Dan."
Genesis 30:3 Then she said, “Here is my maidservant Bilhah. Sleep with her, that she may bear children for
me, so that through her I too can build a family.”"
Genesis 30:2 Jacob beca
me angry with Rachel and said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld children from you?”"
Genesis 30:1 When Rachel saw that she was not bearing any children for Jacob, she envied her sister. “Give
me children, or I will die!” she said to Jacob."
Genesis 29:35 And once more she conceived and gave birth to a son and said, “This ti
me I will praise the LORD.” So she na
med him Judah. Then Leah stopped having children."
Genesis 29:34 Once again Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and she said, “Now at last my husband will beco
me attached to
me, because I have borne him three sons.” So he was na
med Levi."
Genesis 29:33 Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she said, “Because the LORD has heard that I am unloved, He has given
me this son as well.” So she na
med him Si
meon."
Genesis 29:32 And Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and she na
med him Reuben, for she said, “The LORD has seen my affliction. Surely my husband will love
me now.”"
Genesis 29:25 When morning ca
me, there was Leah! “What have you done to
me?” Jacob said to Laban. “Wasn’t it for Rachel that I served you? Why have you deceived
me?”"
Genesis 29:23 But when evening ca
me, Laban took his daughter Leah and gave her to Jacob, and he slept with her.
Genesis 29:22 So Laban invited all the
men of that place and prepared a feast.
Genesis 29:21 Finally Jacob said to Laban, “Grant
me my wife, for my ti
me is complete, and I want to sleep with her.”"
Genesis 29:20 So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, yet it see
med but a few days because of his love for her.
Genesis 29:19 Laban replied, “Better that I give her to you than to another. Stay here with
me.”"
Genesis 29:16 Now Laban had two daughters; the older was na
med Leah, and the younger was na
med Rachel.
Genesis 29:15 Laban said to him, “Just because you are my relative, should you work for nothing? Tell
me what your wages should be.”"
Genesis 29:13 When Laban heard the news about his sister’s son Jacob, he ran out to
meet him. He embraced him and kissed him and brought him to his ho
me, where Jacob told him all that had happened."
Genesis 29:7 “Look,” said Jacob, “it is still broad daylight; it is not yet ti
me to gather the livestock. Water the sheep and take them back to pasture.”"
Genesis 29:6 “Is he well?” Jacob inquired. “Yes,” they answered, “and here co
mes his daughter Rachel with his sheep.”"
Genesis 29:1 Jacob resu
med his journey and ca
me to the land of the people of the east.
Genesis 28:22 And this stone I have set up as a pillar will be God’s house, and of all that You give
me I will surely give You a tenth.”"
Genesis 28:20 Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with
me and watch over
me on this journey, and if He will provide
me with food to eat and clothes to wear,"
Genesis 28:19 and he called that place Bethel, though previously the city had been na
med Luz.
Genesis 28:17 And he was afraid and said, “How aweso
me is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven!”"
♫ Genesis 28:10 Meanwhile Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Haran.
Genesis 28:8 And seeing that his father Isaac disapproved of the Canaanite wo
men,
Genesis 28:5 So Isaac sent Jacob to Paddan-aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Ara
mean, the brother of Rebekah, who was the mother of Jacob and Esau.
Genesis 28:3 May God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may beco
me a company of peoples.
Genesis 28:1 So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him. “Do not take a wife from the Canaanite wo
men,” he commanded."
Genesis 27:46 Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of these Hittite wo
men. If Jacob takes a Hittite wife from among them, what good is my life?”"
Genesis 27:38 Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless
me too, O my father!” Then Esau wept aloud."
Genesis 27:36 So Esau declared, “Is he not rightly na
med Jacob? For he has cheated
me twice. He took my birthright, and now he has taken my blessing.” Then he asked, “Haven’t you saved a blessing for
me?”"
Genesis 27:35 But Isaac replied, “Your brother ca
me deceitfully and took your blessing.”"
Genesis 27:34 When Esau heard his father’s words, he let out a loud and bitter cry and said to his father, “Bless
me too, O my father!”"
Genesis 27:33 Isaac began to tremble violently and said, “Who was it, then, who hunted the ga
me and brought it to
me? Before you ca
me in, I ate it all and blessed him—and indeed, he will be blessed!”"
Genesis 27:31 He too made so
me tasty food, brought it to his father, and said to him, “My father, sit up and eat of your son’s ga
me, so that you may bless
me.”"
Genesis 27:27 So he ca
me near and kissed him. When Isaac s
melled his clothing, he blessed him and said: “Ah, the s
mell of my son is like the s
mell of a field that the LORD has blessed."
Genesis 27:26 Then his father Isaac said to him, “Please co
me near and kiss
me, my son.”"
Genesis 27:25 “Serve
me,” said Isaac, “and let
me eat so
me of my son’s ga
me, so that I may bless you.” Jacob brought it to him, and he ate; then he brought him wine, and he drank."
Genesis 27:22 So Jacob ca
me close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”"
Genesis 27:21 Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please co
me closer so I can touch you, my son. Are you really my son Esau, or not?”"
Genesis 27:20 But Isaac asked his son, “How did you ever find it so quickly, my son?” “Because the LORD your God brought it to
me,” he replied."
Genesis 27:19 Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau, your firstborn. I have done as you told
me. Please sit up and eat so
me of my ga
me, so that you may bless
me.”"
Genesis 27:13 His mother replied, “Your curse be on
me, my son. Just obey my voice and go get them for
me.”"
Genesis 27:12 What if my father touches
me? Then I would be revealed to him as a deceiver, and I would bring upon myself a curse rather than a blessing.”"
Genesis 27:9 Go out to the flock and bring
me two choice young goats, so that I can make them into a tasty dish for your father—the kind he loves."
Genesis 27:7 ‘Bring
me so
me ga
me and prepare
me a tasty dish to eat, so that I may bless you in the presence of the LORD before I die.’"
Genesis 27:5 Now Rebekah was listening to what Isaac told his son Esau. So when Esau went into the field to hunt ga
me and bring it back,
Genesis 27:4 Then prepare a tasty dish that I love and bring it to
me to eat, so that I may bless you before I die.”"
Genesis 27:3 Take your weapons—your quiver and bow—and go out into the field to hunt so
me ga
me for
me."
Genesis 26:33 So he called it Shibah, and to this day the na
me of the city is Beersheba.
Genesis 26:32 On that sa
me day, Isaac’s servants ca
me and told him about the well they had dug. “We have found water!” they told him."
Genesis 26:29 that you will not harm us, just as we have not har
med you but have done only good to you, sending you on your way in peace. And now you are blessed by the LORD.”"
Genesis 26:28 “We can plainly see that the LORD has been with you,” they replied. “We recom
mend that there should now be an oath between us and you. Let us make a covenant with you"
Genesis 26:27 “Why have you co
me to
me?” Isaac asked them. “You hated
me and sent
me away.”"
Genesis 26:26 Later, Abi
melech ca
me to Isaac from Gerar, with Ahuzzath his adviser and Phicol the commander of his army.
Genesis 26:25 So Isaac built an altar there and called on the na
me of the LORD, and he pitched his tent there. His servants also dug a well there.
Genesis 26:22 He moved on from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. He na
med it Rehoboth and said, “At last the LORD has made room for us, and we will be fruitful in the land.”"
Genesis 26:21 Then they dug another well and quarreled over that one also; so he na
med it Sitnah.
Genesis 26:20 But the herds
men of Gerar quarreled with Isaac’s herds
men and said, “The water is ours!” So he na
med the well Esek, because they contended with him."
Genesis 26:18 Isaac reopened the wells that had been dug in the days of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham died. And he gave these wells the sa
me na
mes his father had given them.
Genesis 26:16 Then Abi
melech said to Isaac, “Depart from us, for you are much too powerful for us.”"
Genesis 26:13 and he beca
me richer and richer, until he was exceedingly wealthy.
Genesis 26:11 So Abi
melech warned all the people, saying, “Whoever harms this man or his wife will surely be put to death.”"
Genesis 26:10 “What is this you have done to us?” asked Abi
melech. “One of the people could easily have slept with your wife, and you would have brought guilt upon us.”"
Genesis 26:9 Abi
melech sent for Isaac and said, “So she is really your wife! How could you say, ‘She is my sister’?” Isaac replied, “Because I thought I might die on account of her.”"
Genesis 26:8 When Isaac had been there a long ti
me, Abi
melech king of the Philistines looked down from the window and was surprised to see Isaac caressing his wife Rebekah.
Genesis 26:7 But when the
men of that place asked about his wife, he said, “She is my sister.” For he was afraid to say, “She is my wife,” since he thought to himself, “The
men of this place will kill
me on account of Rebekah, because she is so beautiful.”"
Genesis 26:5 because Abraham listened to My voice and kept My charge, My command
ments, My statutes, and My laws.”"
Genesis 26:4 I will make your descendants as nu
merous as the stars in the sky, and I will give them all these lands, and through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed,
Genesis 26:1 Now there was another famine in the land, subsequent to the one that had occurred in Abraham’s ti
me. And Isaac went to Abi
melech king of the Philistines at Gerar."
Genesis 25:34 Then Jacob gave so
me bread and lentil stew to Esau, who ate and drank and then got up and went away. Thus Esau despised his birthright.
Genesis 25:33 “Swear to
me first,” Jacob said. So Esau swore to Jacob and sold him the birthright."
Genesis 25:32 “Look,” said Esau, “I am about to die, so what good is a birthright to
me?”"
Genesis 25:30 He said to Jacob, “Let
me eat so
me of that red stew, for I am famished.” (That is why he was also called Edom.)"
Genesis 25:29 One day, while Jacob was cooking so
me stew, Esau ca
me in from the field and was famished.
Genesis 25:28 Because Isaac had a taste for wild ga
me, he loved Esau; but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Genesis 25:27 When the boys grew up, Esau beca
me a skillful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man who stayed at ho
me.
Genesis 25:26 After this, his brother ca
me out grasping Esau’s heel; so he was na
med Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when the twins were born."
Genesis 25:25 The first one ca
me out red, covered with hair like a fur coat; so they na
med him Esau.
Genesis 25:24 When her ti
me ca
me to give birth, there were indeed twins in her womb.
Genesis 25:22 But the children inside her struggled with each other, and she said, “Why is this happening to
me?” So Rebekah went to inquire of the LORD,"
Genesis 25:20 and Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Ara
mean from Paddan-aram and the sister of Laban the Ara
mean.
Genesis 25:19 This is the account of Abraham’s son Isaac. Abraham beca
me the father of Isaac,"
Genesis 25:16 These were the sons of Ishmael, and these were their na
mes by their villages and encamp
ments—twelve princes of their tribes."
Genesis 25:13 These are the na
mes of the sons of Ishmael in the order of their birth: Nebaioth the firstborn of Ishmael, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
Genesis 25:2 and she bore him Zimran, Jokshan,
Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Genesis 25:1 Now Abraham had taken another wife, na
med Keturah,
Genesis 24:65 and asked the servant, “Who is that man in the field coming to
meet us?” “It is my master,” the servant answered. So she took her veil and covered herself."
Genesis 24:64 And when Rebekah looked up and saw Isaac, she got down from her ca
mel
Genesis 24:63 Early in the evening, Isaac went out to the field to
meditate, and looking up, he saw the ca
mels approaching.
Genesis 24:61 Then Rebekah and her servant girls got ready, mounted the ca
mels, and followed the man. So the servant took Rebekah and left.
Genesis 24:60 And they blessed Rebekah and said to her, “Our sister, may you beco
me the mother of thousands upon thousands. May your offspring possess the gates of their enemies.”"
Genesis 24:59 So they sent their sister Rebekah on her way, along with her nurse and Abraham’s servant and his
men."
Genesis 24:56 But he replied, “Do not delay
me, since the LORD has made my journey a success. Send
me on my way so that I may go to my master.”"
Genesis 24:54 Then he and the
men with him ate and drank and spent the night there. When they got up the next morning, he said, “Send
me on my way to my master.”"
Genesis 24:51 Rebekah is here before you. Take her and go, and let her beco
me the wife of your master’s son, just as the LORD has decreed.”"
Genesis 24:49 Now if you will show kindness and faithfulness to my master, tell
me; but if not, let
me know, so that I may go elsewhere.”"
Genesis 24:48 Then I bowed down and worshiped the LORD; and I blessed the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who led
me on the right road to take the granddaughter of my master’s brother for his son."
Genesis 24:46 She quickly lowered her jar from her shoulder and said, ‘Drink, and I will water your ca
mels as well.’ So I drank, and she also watered the ca
mels."
Genesis 24:45 And before I had finished praying in my heart, there was Rebekah coming out with her jar on her shoulder, and she went down to the spring and drew water. So I said to her, ‘Please give
me a drink.’"
Genesis 24:44 and she replies, ‘Drink, and I will draw water for your ca
mels as well,’ may she be the woman the LORD has appointed for my master’s son."
Genesis 24:43 Here I am, standing beside this spring. Now if a maiden co
mes out to draw water and I say to her, ‘Please let
me drink a little water from your jar,’"
Genesis 24:42 So when I ca
me to the spring today, I prayed: O LORD, God of my master Abraham, if only You would make my journey a success!
Genesis 24:40 And he told
me, ‘The LORD, before whom I have walked, will send His angel with you and make your journey a success, so that you may take a wife for my son from my kindred and from my father’s house."
Genesis 24:39 Then I asked my master, ‘What if the woman will not co
me back with
me?’"
Genesis 24:37 My master made
me swear an oath and said, ‘You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites in whose land I dwell,"
Genesis 24:35 “The LORD has greatly blessed my master, and he has beco
me rich. He has given him sheep and cattle, silver and gold,
menservants and maidservants, ca
mels and donkeys."
Genesis 24:33 Then a
meal was set before the man, but he said, “I will not eat until I have told you what I ca
me to say.” So Laban said, “Please speak.”"
Genesis 24:32 So the man ca
me to the house, and the ca
mels were unloaded. Straw and feed were brought to the ca
mels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of his companions.
Genesis 24:31 “Co
me, you who are blessed by the LORD,” said Laban. “Why are you standing out here? I have prepared the house and a place for the ca
mels.”"
Genesis 24:30 As soon as he saw the ring, and the bracelets on his sister’s wrists, and heard Rebekah’s words, “The man said this to
me,” he went and found the man standing by the ca
mels near the spring."
Genesis 24:29 Now Rebekah had a brother na
med Laban, and he rushed out to the man at the spring.
Genesis 24:27 saying, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who has not withheld His kindness and faithfulness from my master. As for
me, the LORD has led
me on the journey to the house of my master’s relatives.”"
Genesis 24:23 “Whose daughter are you?” he asked. “Please tell
me, is there room in your father’s house for us to spend the night?”"
Genesis 24:22 And after the ca
mels had finished drinking, he took out a gold ring weighing a beka, and two gold bracelets for her wrists weighing ten shekels.
Genesis 24:21 Meanwhile, the man watched her silently to see whether or not the LORD had made his journey a success.
Genesis 24:20 And she quickly emptied her jar into the trough and ran back to the well to draw water, until she had drawn water for all his ca
mels.
Genesis 24:19 After she had given him a drink, she said, “I will also draw water for your ca
mels, until they have had enough to drink.”"
Genesis 24:17 So the servant ran to
meet her and said, “Please let
me have a little water from your jar.”"
Genesis 24:16 Now the girl was very beautiful, a virgin who had not had relations with any man. She went down to the spring, filled her jar, and ca
me up again.
Genesis 24:15 Before the servant had finished praying, Rebekah ca
me out with her jar on her shoulder. She was the daughter of Bethuel son of Milcah, the wife of Abraham’s brother Nahor."
Genesis 24:14 Now may it happen that the girl to whom I say, ‘Please let down your jar that I may drink,’ and who responds, ‘Drink, and I will water your ca
mels as well’—let her be the one You have appointed for Your servant Isaac. By this I will know that You have shown kindness to my master.”"
Genesis 24:12 “O LORD, God of my master Abraham,” he prayed, “please grant
me success today, and show kindness to my master Abraham."
Genesis 24:11 As evening approached, he made the ca
mels kneel down near the well outside the town at the ti
me when the wo
men went out to draw water.
Genesis 24:10 Then the servant took ten of his master’s ca
mels and departed with all manner of good things from his master in hand. And he set out for Nahor’s ho
metown in Aram-naharaim."
Genesis 24:7 The LORD, the God of heaven, who brought
me from my father’s house and my native land, who spoke to
me and promised
me on oath, saying, ‘To your offspring I will give this land’—He will send His angel before you so that you can take a wife for my son from there."
Genesis 24:5 The servant asked him, “What if the woman is unwilling to follow
me to this land? Shall I then take your son back to the land from which you ca
me?”"
Genesis 23:18 to Abraham’s possession in the presence of all the Hittites who had co
me to the gate of his city."
Genesis 23:16 Abraham agreed to Ephron’s terms and weighed out for him the price he had na
med in the hearing of the Hittites: four hundred shekels of silver, according to the standard of the
merchants."
Genesis 23:15 “Listen to
me, my lord. The land is worth four hundred shekels of silver, but what is that between you and
me? Bury your dead.”"
Genesis 23:13 and said to Ephron in their presence, “If you will please listen to
me, I will pay you the price of the field. Accept it from
me, so that I may bury my dead there.”"
Genesis 23:11 “No, my lord. Listen to
me. I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. I give it to you in the presence of my people. Bury your dead.”"
Genesis 23:10 Now Ephron was sitting among the sons of Heth. So in the presence of all the Hittites who had co
me to the gate of his city, Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham,
Genesis 23:9 to sell
me the cave of Machpelah that belongs to him; it is at the end of his field. Let him sell it to
me in your presence for full price, so that I may have a burial site.”"
Genesis 23:8 “If you are willing for
me to bury my dead,” he said to them, “listen to
me, and approach Ephron son of Zohar on my behalf"
Genesis 23:4 “I am a foreigner and an outsider among you. Give
me a burial site among you so that I can bury my dead.”"
Genesis 22:24 Moreover, Nahor’s concubine, whose na
me was Reumah, bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah."
Genesis 22:23 And Bethuel beca
me the father of Rebekah. Milcah bore these eight sons to Abraham’s brother Nahor."
Genesis 22:20 So
me ti
me later, Abraham was told, “Milcah has also borne sons to your brother Nahor:"
Genesis 22:15 And the angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second ti
me,
Genesis 22:12 “Do not lay a hand on the boy or do anything to him,” said the angel, “for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your only son from
me.”"
Genesis 22:1 So
me ti
me later God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered."
Genesis 21:34 And Abraham resided in the land of the Philistines for a long ti
me.
Genesis 21:33 And Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there he called upon the na
me of the LORD, the Eternal God.
Genesis 21:32 After they had made the covenant at Beersheba, Abi
melech and Phicol the commander of his army got up and returned to the land of the Philistines.
Genesis 21:29 and Abi
melech asked him, “Why have you set apart these seven ewe lambs?”"
Genesis 21:27 So Abraham brought sheep and cattle and gave them to Abi
melech, and the two
men made a covenant.
Genesis 21:26 Abi
melech replied, “I do not know who has done this. You did not tell
me, so I have not heard about it until today.”"
Genesis 21:25 But when Abraham complained to Abi
melech about a well that Abi
melech’s servants had seized,"
Genesis 21:23 Now, therefore, swear to
me here before God that you will not deal falsely with
me or my children or descendants. Show to
me and to the country in which you reside the sa
me kindness that I have shown to you.”"
Genesis 21:22 At that ti
me Abi
melech and Phicol the commander of his army said to Abraham, “God is with you in all that you do."
Genesis 21:20 And God was with the boy, and he grew up and settled in the wilderness and beca
me a great archer.
Genesis 21:6 Then Sarah said, “God has made
me laugh, and everyone who hears of this will laugh with
me.”"
Genesis 21:3 And Abraham gave the na
me Isaac to the son Sarah bore to him.
Genesis 21:2 So Sarah conceived and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the very ti
me God had promised.
Genesis 20:18 for on account of Abraham’s wife Sarah, the LORD had completely closed all the wombs in Abi
melech’s household."
Genesis 20:17 Then Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abi
melech and his wife and his maidservants, so that they could again bear children—"
Genesis 20:15 And Abi
melech said, “Look, my land is before you. Settle wherever you please.”"
Genesis 20:14 So Abi
melech brought sheep and cattle,
menservants and maidservants, and he gave them to Abraham and restored his wife Sarah to him.
Genesis 20:13 So when God had
me journey from my father’s house, I said to Sarah, ‘This is how you can show your loyalty to
me: Wherever we go, say of
me, “He is my brother.”’”"
Genesis 20:12 Besides, she really is my sister, the daughter of my father—though not the daughter of my mother—and she beca
me my wife."
Genesis 20:11 Abraham replied, “I thought to myself, ‘Surely there is no fear of God in this place. They will kill
me on account of my wife.’"
Genesis 20:10 Abi
melech also asked Abraham, “What prompted you to do such a thing?”"
Genesis 20:9 Then Abi
melech called Abraham and asked, “What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought such tre
mendous guilt upon
me and my kingdom? You have done things to
me that should not be done.”"
Genesis 20:8 Early the next morning Abi
melech got up and summoned all his servants; and when he described to them all that had happened, the
men were terrified.
Genesis 20:6 Then God said to Abi
melech in the dream, “Yes, I know that you did this with a clear conscience, and so I have kept you from sinning against
Me. That is why I did not let you touch her."
Genesis 20:5 Didn’t Abraham tell
me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands.”"
Genesis 20:4 Now Abi
melech had not gone near her, so he replied, “Lord, would You destroy a nation even though it is innocent?"
Genesis 20:3 One night, however, God ca
me to Abi
melech in a dream and told him, “You are as good as dead because of the woman you have taken, for she is a married woman.”"
Genesis 20:2 Abraham said of his wife Sarah, “She is my sister.” So Abi
melech king of Gerar had Sarah brought to him."
Genesis 19:38 The younger daughter also gave birth to a son, and she na
med him Ben-ammi. He is the father of the Ammonites of today.
Genesis 19:37 The older daughter gave birth to a son and na
med him Moab. He is the father of the Moabites of today.
Genesis 19:36 Thus both of Lot’s daughters beca
me pregnant by their father."
Genesis 19:32 Co
me, let us get our father drunk with wine so we can sleep with him and preserve his line.”"
Genesis 19:29 So when God destroyed the cities of the plain, He re
membered Abraham, and He brought Lot out of the catastrophe that destroyed the cities where he had lived.
Genesis 19:26 But Lot’s wife looked back, and she beca
me a pillar of salt."
Genesis 19:23 And by the ti
me the sun had risen over the land, Lot had reached Zoar.
Genesis 19:20 Look, there is a town nearby where I can flee, and it is a small place. Please let
me flee there—is it not a small place? Then my life will be saved.”"
Genesis 19:19 Your servant has indeed found favor in your sight, and you have shown
me great kindness by sparing my life. But I cannot run to the mountains; the disaster will overtake
me, and I will die.
Genesis 19:17 As soon as the
men had brought them out, one of them said, “Run for your lives! Do not look back, and do not stop anywhere on the plain! Flee to the mountains, or you will be swept away!”"
Genesis 19:16 But when Lot hesitated, the
men grabbed his hand and the hands of his wife and his two daughters. And they led them safely out of the city, because of the LORD’s compassion for them."
Genesis 19:15 At daybreak the angels hurried Lot along, saying, “Get up! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away in the punish
ment of the city.”"
Genesis 19:12 Then the two
men said to Lot, “Do you have anyone else here—a son-in-law, your sons or daughters, or anyone else in the city who belongs to you? Get them out of here,"
Genesis 19:11 And they struck the
men at the entrance, young and old, with blindness, so that they wearied themselves trying to find the door.
Genesis 19:10 But the
men inside reached out, pulled Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.
Genesis 19:9 “Get out of the way!” they replied. And they declared, “This one ca
me here as a foreigner, and he is already acting like a judge! Now we will treat you worse than them.” And they pressed in on Lot and moved in to break down the door."
Genesis 19:8 Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let
me bring them to you, and you can do to them as you please. But do not do anything to these
men, for they have co
me under the protection of my roof.”"
Genesis 19:6 Lot went outside to
meet them, shutting the door behind him.
Genesis 19:5 They called out to Lot, saying, “Where are the
men who ca
me to you tonight? Send them out to us so we can have relations with them!”"
Genesis 19:4 Before they had gone to bed, all the
men of the city of Sodom, both young and old, surrounded the house.
Genesis 19:1 Now the two angels arrived at Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gateway of the city. When Lot saw them, he got up to
meet them, bowed facedown,
Genesis 18:33 When the LORD had finished speaking with Abraham, He departed, and Abraham returned ho
me.
Genesis 18:32 Finally, Abraham said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let
me speak once more. Suppose ten are found there?” And He answered, “On account of the ten, I will not destroy it.”"
Genesis 18:30 Then Abraham said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let
me speak further. Suppose thirty are found there?” He replied, “If I find thirty there, I will not do it.”"
Genesis 18:22 And the two
men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the LORD.
Genesis 18:21 I will go down to see if their actions fully justify the outcry that has reached
Me. If not, I will find out.”"
Genesis 18:18 Abraham will surely beco
me a great and powerful nation, and through him all the nations of the earth will be blessed.
Genesis 18:16 When the
men got up to leave, they looked out over Sodom, and Abraham walked along with them to see them off.
Genesis 18:14 Is anything too difficult for the LORD? At the appointed ti
me I will return to you—in about a year—and Sarah will have a son.”"
Genesis 18:10 Then the LORD said, “I will surely return to you at this ti
me next year, and your wife Sarah will have a son!” Now Sarah was behind him, listening at the entrance to the tent."
Genesis 18:8 Then Abraham brought curds and milk and the calf that had been prepared, and he set them before the
men and stood by them under the tree as they ate.
Genesis 18:7 Meanwhile, Abraham ran to the herd, selected a tender and choice calf, and gave it to a servant, who hurried to prepare it.
Genesis 18:6 So Abraham hurried into the tent and said to Sarah, “Quick! Prepare three seahs of fine flour, knead it, and bake so
me bread.”"
Genesis 18:2 And Abraham looked up and saw three
men standing nearby. When he saw them, he ran from the entrance of his tent to
meet them and bowed low to the ground.
Genesis 17:27 And all the
men of Abraham’s household—both servants born in his household and those purchased from foreigners—were circumcised with him."
Genesis 17:26 Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the sa
me day.
Genesis 17:23 On that very day Abraham took his son Ishmael and all those born in his household or purchased with his money—every male among the
members of Abraham’s household—and he circumcised them, just as God had told him."
Genesis 17:21 But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this ti
me next year.”"
Genesis 17:20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you, and I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and multiply him greatly. He will beco
me the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.
Genesis 17:19 But God replied, “Your wife Sarah will indeed bear you a son, and you are to na
me him Isaac. I will establish My covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him."
Genesis 17:15 Then God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, do not call her Sarai, for her na
me is to be Sarah."
Genesis 17:11 You are to circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and this will be a sign of the covenant between
Me and you.
Genesis 17:7 I will establish My covenant as an everlasting covenant between
Me and you and your descendants after you, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you.
Genesis 17:5 No longer will you be called Abram, but your na
me will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.
Genesis 17:4 “As for
Me, this is My covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations."
Genesis 17:2 I will establish My covenant between
Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly.”"
Genesis 17:1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty. Walk before
Me and be bla
meless."
Genesis 16:15 And Hagar bore Abram a son, and Abram gave the na
me Ishmael to the son she had borne.
Genesis 16:13 So Hagar gave this na
me to the LORD who had spoken to her: “You are the God who sees
me,” for she said, “Here I have seen the One who sees
me!”"
Genesis 16:11 The angel of the LORD proceeded: “Behold, you have conceived and will bear a son. And you shall na
me him Ishmael, for the LORD has heard your cry of affliction."
Genesis 16:10 Then the angel added, “I will greatly multiply your offspring so that they will be too nu
merous to count.”"
Genesis 16:8 “Hagar, servant of Sarai,” he said, “where have you co
me from, and where are you going?” “I am running away from my mistress Sarai,” she replied."
Genesis 16:5 Then Sarai said to Abram, “May the wrong done to
me be upon you! I delivered my servant into your arms, and ever since she saw that she was pregnant, she has treated
me with contempt. May the LORD judge between you and
me.”"
Genesis 16:2 So Sarai said to Abram, “Look now, the LORD has prevented
me from bearing children. Please go to my maidservant; perhaps I can build a family by her.” And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai."
Genesis 16:1 Now Abram’s wife Sarai had borne him no children, but she had an Egyptian maidservant na
med Hagar."
Genesis 15:12 As the sun was setting, Abram fell into a deep sleep, and suddenly great terror and darkness overwhel
med him.
Genesis 15:9 And the LORD said to him, “Bring
Me a heifer, a goat, and a ram, each three years old, along with a turtledove and a young pigeon.”"
Genesis 15:4 Then the word of the LORD ca
me to Abram, saying, “This one will not be your heir, but one who co
mes from your own body will be your heir.”"
Genesis 15:3 Abram continued, “Behold, You have given
me no offspring, so a servant in my household will be my heir.”"
Genesis 15:2 But Abram replied, “O Lord GOD, what can You give
me, since I remain childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?”"
Genesis 15:1 After these events, the word of the LORD ca
me to Abram in a vision: “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your very great reward.”"
Genesis 14:24 I will accept nothing but what my
men have eaten and the share for the
men who went with
me—Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. They may take their portion.”"
Genesis 14:21 The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give
me the people, but take the goods for yourself.”"
Genesis 14:20 and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave
Melchizedek a tenth of everything."
Genesis 14:18 Then
Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine—since he was priest of God Most High—"
Genesis 14:17 After Abram returned from defeating Chedorlao
mer and the kings allied with him, the king of Sodom went out to
meet him in the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley)."
Genesis 14:16 He retrieved all the goods, as well as his relative Lot and his possessions, together with the wo
men and the rest of the people.
Genesis 14:15 During the night, Abram divided his forces and routed Chedorlao
mer’s army, pursuing them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus."
Genesis 14:14 And when Abram heard that his relative had been captured, he mobilized the 318 trained
men born in his household, and they set out in pursuit as far as Dan.
Genesis 14:13 Then an escapee ca
me and reported this to Abram the Hebrew. Now Abram was living near the Oaks of Mamre the Amorite, a brother of Eshcol and Aner, all of whom were bound by treaty to Abram.
Genesis 14:10 Now the Valley of Siddim was full of tar pits, and as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, so
me men fell into the pits, but the survivors fled to the hill country.
Genesis 14:9 against Chedorlao
mer king of Elam, Tidal king of Goiim, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar—four kings against five."
Genesis 14:5 In the fourteenth year, Chedorlao
mer and the kings allied with him went out and defeated the Rephaites in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzites in Ham, the Emites in Shaveh-kiriathaim,
Genesis 14:4 For twelve years they had been subject to Chedorlao
mer, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
Genesis 14:3 The latter five ca
me as allies to the Valley of Siddim (that is, the Salt Sea).
Genesis 14:2 went to war against Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, She
meber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar).
Genesis 14:1 In those days Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlao
mer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim
Genesis 13:13 But the
men of Sodom were wicked, sinning greatly against the LORD.
Genesis 13:9 Is not the whole land before you? Now separate yourself from
me. If you go to the left, I will go to the right; if you go to the right, I will go to the left.”"
Genesis 13:8 So Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no contention between you and
me, or between your herds
men and my herds
men. After all, we are brothers."
Genesis 13:7 And there was discord between the herds
men of Abram and the herds
men of Lot. At that ti
me the Canaanites and the Perizzites were also living in the land.
Genesis 13:4 to the site where he had built the altar. And there Abram called on the na
me of the LORD.
Genesis 13:3 From the Negev he journeyed from place to place toward Bethel, until he ca
me to the place between Bethel and Ai where his tent had for
merly been pitched,
Genesis 13:2 And Abram had beco
me extre
mely wealthy in livestock and silver and gold.
Genesis 12:20 Then Pharaoh gave his
men orders concerning Abram, and they sent him away with his wife and all his possessions.
Genesis 12:18 So Pharaoh summoned Abram and asked, “What have you done to
me? Why didn’t you tell
me she was your wife?"
Genesis 12:16 He treated Abram well on her account, and Abram acquired sheep and cattle, male and female donkeys,
menservants and maidservants, and ca
mels.
Genesis 12:15 When Pharaoh’s officials saw Sarai, they com
mended her to him, and she was taken into the palace of Pharaoh."
Genesis 12:12 and when the Egyptians see you, they will say, ‘This is his wife.’ Then they will kill
me but will let you live."
Genesis 12:8 From there Abram moved on to the hill country east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel to the west and Ai to the east. There he built an altar to the LORD, and he called on the na
me of the LORD.
Genesis 12:6 Abram traveled through the land as far as the site of the Oak of Moreh at Shechem. And at that ti
me the Canaanites were in the land.
Genesis 12:5 And Abram took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, and all the possessions and people they had acquired in Haran, and set out for the land of Canaan. When they ca
me to the land of Canaan,
Genesis 12:2 I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your na
me great, so that you will be a blessing.
Genesis 11:29 And Abram and Nahor took wives for themselves. Abram’s wife was na
med Sarai, and Nahor’s wife was na
med Milcah; she was the daughter of Haran, who was the father of both Milcah and Iscah."
Genesis 11:28 During his father Terah’s lifeti
me, Haran died in his native land, in Ur of the Chaldeans."
Genesis 11:27 This is the account of Terah. Terah beca
me the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran. And Haran beca
me the father of Lot.
Genesis 11:26 When Terah was 70 years old, he beca
me the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
Genesis 11:25 And after he had beco
me the father of Terah, Nahor lived 119 years and had other sons and daughters.
Genesis 11:24 When Nahor was 29 years old, he beca
me the father of Terah.
Genesis 11:23 And after he had beco
me the father of Nahor, Serug lived 200 years and had other sons and daughters.
Genesis 11:22 When Serug was 30 years old, he beca
me the father of Nahor.
Genesis 11:21 And after he had beco
me the father of Serug, Reu lived 207 years and had other sons and daughters.
Genesis 11:20 When Reu was 32 years old, he beca
me the father of Serug.
Genesis 11:19 And after he had beco
me the father of Reu, Peleg lived 209 years and had other sons and daughters.
