- ¤ Now when all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwelt beyond the Jordan, westward, and all the kings of Chanaan, who possessed the places near the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the children of Israel, till they passed over, their heart failed them, and there remained no spirit in them, fearing the coming in of the children of Israel. Josu. 5:1
- During the forty years of the journey in the wide wilderness, were uncircumcised: till all they were consumed that had not heard the voice of the Lord, and to whom he had sworn before, that he would not shew them the land flowing with milk and honey. Josu. 5:6

- And were defeated by the men of the city of Hai, and there fell of them six and thirty men: and the enemies pursued them from the gate as far as Sabarim, and they slew them as they fled by the descent: and the heart of the people was struck with fear, and melted like water. Josu. 7:5
- Neither can Israel stand before his enemies, but he shall flee from them: because he is defiled with the anathema. I will be no more with you, till you destroy him that is guilty of this wickedness. Josu. 7:12
- Arise, sanctify the people, and say to them: Be ye sanctified against tomorrow: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel: The curse is in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thy enemies, till he be destroyed out of thee, that is defiled with this wickedness. Josu. 7:13
- For I saw among the spoils a scarlet garment, exceeding good, and two hundred sicles of silver, and a golden rule of fifty sicles: and I coveted them, and I took them away, and hid them in the ground in the midst of my tent, and the silver I covered with the earth that I dug up. Josu. 7:21
- And taking them away out of the tent, they brought them to Josue, and to all the children of Israel, and threw them down before the Lord. Josu. 7:23

- And the men of the city, that pursued after Josue, looking back, and seeing the smoke of the city rise up to heaven, had no more power to flee this way or that way: especially as they that had counterfeited flight, and were going toward the wilderness, turned back most valiantly against them that pursued. Josu. 8:20
- And they also that had taken and set the city on fire, issuing out of the city to meet their own men, began to cut off the enemies who were surrounded by them. So that the enemies being cut off on both sides, not one of so great a multitude was saved. Josu. 8:22

And first he blessed the people of Israel. Josu. 8:33
- He left out nothing of those things which Moses had commanded, but he repeated all before all the people of Israel, with the women and children, and strangers, that dwelt among them. Josu. 8:35
- And very old shoes, which for a show of age were clouted with patches, and old garments upon them: the loaves also, which they carried for provisions by the way, were hard, and broken into pieces: Josu. 9:5
- And they went to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him, and to all Israel with him: We are come from a far country, desiring to make peace with you. And the children of Israel answered them, and said: Josu. 9:6
- But they said to Josue: We are thy servants. Josue said to them: Who are you? and whence came you? Josu. 9:8
- And our ancients, and all the inhabitants of our country, said to us: Take with you victuals for a long way, and go meet them, and say: We are your servants, make ye a league with us. Josu. 9:11
- These bottles of wine when we filled them were new, now they are rent and burst. These garments we have on, and the shoes we have on our feet, by reason of the very long journey, are worn out, and almost consumed. Josu. 9:13
- And Josue made peace with them, and entering into a league, promised that they should not be slain: the princes also of the multitude swore to them. Josu. 9:15
- Now three days after the league was made, they heard that they dwelt nigh, and they should be among them. Josu. 9:16
- And they slew them not, because the princes of the multitude had sworn in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel. Then all the common people murmured against the princes. Josu. 9:18
- And they answered them: We have sworn to them in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, and therefore we may not touch them. Josu. 9:19
- But this we will do to them: Let their lives be saved, lest the wrath of the Lord be stirred up against us, if we should be forsworn: Josu. 9:20
- But so let them live, as to serve the whole multitude in hewing wood, and bringing in water. As they were speaking these things, Josu. 9:21
- Josue called the Gabaonites, and said to them: Why would you impose upon us, saying: We dwell very far off from you, whereas you are in the midst of us? Josu. 9:22
- So Josue did as he had said, and delivered them from the hand of the children of Israel, that they should not be slain. Josu. 9:26
- And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands: none of them shall be able to stand against thee. Josu. 10:8
- So Josue going up from Galgal all the night, came upon them suddenly. Josu. 10:9
- And the Lord troubled them, at the sight of Israel: and he slew them with a great slaughter, in Gabaon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Bethoron, and cut them off all the way to Azeca and Maceda. Josu. 10:10
- And when they were fleeing from the children of Israel, and were in the descent of Bethoron, the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven, as far as Azeca: and many more were killed with the hailstones, than were slain by the swords of the children of Israel, Josu. 10:11
- Then Josue spoke to the Lord, in the day that he delivered the Amorrhite in the sight of the children of Israel, and he said before them: Move not, O sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, O moon, toward the valley of Ajalon. Josu. 10:12

- And when they were brought out to him, he called all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the army that were with him: Go, and set your feet on the necks of these kings. And when they had gone, and put their feet upon the necks of them lying under them, Josu. 10:24
- He said again to them: Fear not, neither be ye dismayed, take courage, and be strong: for so will the Lord do to all your enemies, against whom you fight. Josu. 10:25
- And Josue struck, and slew them, and hanged them upon five gibbets; and they hung until the evening. Josu. 10:26
- And when the sun was down, he commanded the soldiers to take them down from the gibbets. And after they were taken down, they cast them into the cave, where they had lain hid, and put great stones at the mouth thereof, which remain until this day. Josu. 10:27
- And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for to morrow at this same hour I will deliver all these to be slain in the sight of Israel: thou shalt hamstring their horses, and thou shalt burn their chariots with fire. Josu. 11:6
- And Josue came, and all the army with him, against them to the waters of Merom on a sudden, and fell upon them. Josu. 11:7
- And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Israel. And they defeated them, and chased them as far as the great Sidon and the waters of Maserophot, and the field of Masphe, which is on the east thereof. He slew them all, so as to leave no remains of them: Josu. 11:8
- Moses the servant of the Lord, and the children of Israel slew them, and Moses delivered their land in possession to the Rubenites, and Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasses. Josu. 12:6
- Of all that dwell in the mountains from Libanus, to the waters of Maserephoth, and all the Sidonians. I am he that will cut them off from before the face of the children of Israel. So let their land come in as a part of the inheritance of Israel, as I have commanded thee. Josu. 13:6
- With whom Ruben and Gad have possessed the land, which Moses the servant of the Lord delivered to them beyond the river Jordan, on the east side. Josu. 13:8
- All the kingdom of Og in Basan, who reigned in Astaroth and Edrai, he was of the remains of the Raphaims: and Moses overthrew and destroyed them. Josu. 13:12
- But to the tribe of Levi he gave no possession: because the Lord the God of Israel himself is their possession, as he spoke to them. Josu. 13:33
- ¤ This is what the children of Israel possessed in the land of Chanaan, which Eleazar the priest, and Josue the son of Nun, and the princes of the families by the tribes of Israel gave to them. Josu. 14:1
- Give me therefore this mountain, which the Lord promised, in thy hearing also, wherein are the Enacims, and cities great and strong: if so be the Lord will be with me, and I shall be able to destroy them, as he promised me. Josu. 14:12
- And they came in the presence of Eleazar the priest and of Josue the son of Nun, and of the princes, saying: The Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, that a possession should be given us in the midst of our brethren. And he gave them according to the commandment of the Lord a possession amongst the brethren of their father. Josu. 17:4

- These cities were appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the strangers, that dwelt among them, that whosoever had killed a person unawares might flee to them, and not die by the hand of the kinsman, coveting to revenge the blood that was shed, until he should stand before the people to lay open his cause. Josu. 20:9

- Now to half the tribe of Manasses, Moses had given a possession in Basan: and therefore to the half that remained, Josue gave a lot among the rest of their brethren beyond the Jordan to the west. And when he sent them away to their dwellings and had blessed them, Josu. 22:7
- He said to them: With much substance and riches, you return to your settlements, with silver and gold, brass and iron, and variety of raiment: divide the prey of your enemies with your brethren. Josu. 22:8

- Who came to the children of Ruben, and of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasses, into the land of Galaad, and said to them: Josu. 22:15
- And if they will say so, they shall answer them: Behold the altar of the Lord, which our fathers made, not for holocausts, nor for sacrifice, but for a testimony between us and you. Josu. 22:28
- And Phinees the priest the son of Eleazar said to them: Now we know that the Lord is with us, because you are not guilty of this revolt, and you have delivered the children of Israel from the hand of the Lord. Josu. 22:31
- And he returned with the princes from the children of Ruben and Gad, out of the land of Galaad, into the land of Chanaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them word again. Josu. 22:32
- And the saying pleased all that heard it. And the children of Israel praised God, and they no longer said that they would go up against them, and fight, and destroy the land of their possession. Josu. 22:33

- Lest after that you are come in among the Gentiles, who will remain among you, you should swear by the name of their gods, and serve them, and adore them: Josu. 23:7
- But if you will embrace the errors of these nations that dwell among you, and make marriages with them, and join friendships: Josu. 23:12
- Know ye for a certainty that the Lord your God will not destroy them before your face, but they shall be a pit and a snare in your way, and a stumbling-block at your side, and stakes in your eyes, till he take you away and destroy you from off this excellent land, which he hath given you. Josu. 23:13
- When you shall have transgressed the covenant of the Lord your God, which he hath made with you, and shall have served strange gods, and adored them: then shall the indignation of the Lord rise up quickly and speedily against you, and you shall be taken away from this excellent land, which he hath delivered to you. Josu. 23:16

- But the just shall live for evermore: and their reward is with the Lord, and the care of them with the most High. Wis. 5:16
- Therefore shall they receive a kingdom of glory, and a crown of beauty at the hand of the Lord: for with his right hand he will cover them, and with his holy arm he will defend them. Wis. 5:17
- And thick hail shall be cast upon them from the stone casting wrath: the water of the sea shall rage against them, and the rivers shall run together in a terrible manner. Wis. 5:23
- A mighty wind shall stand up against them, and as a whirlwind shall divide them: and their iniquity shall bring all the earth to a desert, and wickedness shall overthrow the thrones of the mighty. Wis. 5:24
- Horribly and speedily will he appear to you: for a most severe judgment shall be for them that bear rule. Wis. 6:6
- Covet ye, therefore, my words, and love them, and you shall have instruction. Wis. 6:12
- Wisdom is glorious, and never fadeth away, and is easily seen by them that love her, and is found by them that seek her. Wis. 6:13
- She preventeth them that covet her, so that she first sheweth herself unto them. Wis. 6:14
- For she goeth about seeking such as are worthy of her, and she sheweth herself to them cheerfully in the ways, and meeteth them with all providence. Wis. 6:17
- And I rejoiced in all these: for this wisdom went before me, and I knew not that she was the mother of them all. Wis. 7:12
- Moreover, by the means of her I shall have immortality: and shall leave behind me an everlasting memory to them that come after me. Wis. 8:13
- Thinking these things with myself, and pondering them in my heart, that to be allied to wisdom is immortality, Wis. 8:17
- And so the ways of them that are upon earth may be corrected, and men may learn the things that please thee? Wis. 9:18
- But wisdom hath delivered from sorrow them that attend upon her. Wis. 10:9
- In the deceit of them that overreached him, she stood by him, and made him honourable. Wis. 10:11
- And in bands she left him not, till she brought him the sceptre of the kingdom, and power against those that oppressed him: and shewed them to be liars that had accused him, and gave him everlasting glory. Wis. 10:14
- She delivered the just people, and blameless seed, from the nations that oppressed them. Wis. 10:15
- And she rendered to the just the wages of their labours, and conducted them in a wonderful way: and she was to them for a covert by day, and for the light of stars by night: Wis. 10:17
- And she brought them through the Red Sea, and carried them over through a great water. Wis. 10:18
- But their enemies she drowned in the sea, and from the depth of hell she brought them out. Therefore the just took the spoils of the wicked. Wis. 10:19
- They were thirsty, and they called upon thee, and water was given them out of the high rock, and a refreshment of their thirst out of the hard stone. Wis. 11:4
- For by what things their enemies were punished, when their drink failed them, while the children of Israel abounded therewith, and rejoiced: Wis. 11:5
- For thou didst admonish and try them as a father: but the others, as a severe king, thou didst examine and condemn. Wis. 11:11
- For a double affliction came upon them, and a groaning for the remembrance of things past. Wis. 11:13
- But for the foolish devices of their iniquity, because some being deceived worshipped dumb serpents and worthless beasts, thou didst send upon them a multitude of dumb beasts for vengeance: Wis. 11:16
- For thy almighty hand, which made the world of matter without form, was not unable to send upon them a multitude of bears, or fierce lions, Wis. 11:18
- Whereof not only the hurt might be able to destroy them, but also the very sight might kill them through fear. Wis. 11:20
- And therefore thou chastisest them that err, by little and little: and admonishest them, and speakest to them, concerning the things wherein they offend: that leaving their wickedness, they may believe in thee, O Lord. Wis. 12:2
- Yet even those thou sparedst as men, and didst send wasps forerunners of thy host, to destroy them by little and little. Wis. 12:8
- Not that thou wast unable to bring the wicked under the just by war, or by cruel beasts, or with one rough word to destroy them at once: Wis. 12:9
- But executing thy judgments by degrees, thou gavest them place of repentance, not being ignorant that they were a wicked generation, and their malice natural, and that their thought could never be changed. Wis. 12:10
- Neither shall king, nor tyrant, in thy sight inquire about them whom thou hast destroyed. Wis. 12:14
- For thou shewest thy power, when men will not believe thee to be absolute in power, and thou convincest the boldness of them that know thee not. Wis. 12:17
- For if thou didst punish the enemies of thy servants, and that deserved to die, with so great deliberation, giving them time and place whereby they might be changed from their wickedness: Wis. 12:20
- Wherefore thou hast also greatly tormented them, who, in their life, have lived foolishly and unjustly, by the same things which they worshipped. Wis. 12:23
- Therefore thou hast sent a judgment upon them, as senseless children, to mock them. Wis. 12:25
- For seeing, with indignation, that they suffered by those very things which they took for gods, when they were destroyed by the same, they acknowledged him the true God, whom in time past they denied that they knew: for which cause the end also of their condemnation came upon them. Wis. 12:27
- With whose beauty, if they, being delighted, took them to be gods: let them know how much the Lord of them is more beautiful than they: for the first author of beauty made all those things. Wis. 13:3
- Or if they admired their power, and their effects, let them understand by them, that he that made them, is mightier than they: Wis. 13:4
- For by the greatness of the beauty, and of the creature, the creator of them may be seen, so as to be known thereby. Wis. 13:5
- For the beginning of fornication is the devising of idols: and the invention of them is the corruption of life. Wis. 14:12
- And it was not enough for them to err about the knowledge of God, but whereas they lived in a great war of ignorance, they call so many and so great evils peace. Wis. 14:22
- For it is not the power of them, by whom they swear, but the just vengeance of sinners always punisheth the transgression of the unjust. Wis. 14:31
- The lovers of evil things deserve to have no better things to trust in, both they that make them, and they that love them, and they that worship them. Wis. 15:6
- But all the enemies of thy people that hold them in subjection, are foolish, and unhappy, and proud beyond measure: Wis. 15:14
- For man made them: and he that borroweth his own breath, fashioned them. For no man can make a god like to himself. Wis. 15:16
- Instead of which punishment, dealing well with thy people, thou gavest them their desire of delicious food, of a new taste, preparing for them quails for their meat: Wis. 16:2
- To the end, that they indeed desiring food, by means of those things that were shewn and sent among them, might loath even that which was necessary to satisfy their desire. But these, after suffering want for a short time, tasted a new meat. Wis. 16:3
- For it was requisite that inevitable destruction should come upon them that exercised tyranny: but to these it should only be shewn how their enemies were destroyed. Wis. 16:4
- But thy wrath endured not for ever, but they were troubled for a short time for their correction, having a sign of salvation, to put them in remembrance of the commandment of thy law. Wis. 16:6
- For the bitings of locusts, and of flies, killed them, and there was found no remedy for their life: because they were worthy to be destroyed by such things. Wis. 16:9
- But not even the teeth of venomous serpents overcame thy children: for thy mercy came and healed them. Wis. 16:10
- For it was neither herb, nor mollifying plaster, that healed them, but thy word, O Lord, which healeth all things. Wis. 16:12
- Instead of which things, thou didst feed thy people with the food of angels, and gavest them bread from heaven, prepared without labour; having in it all that is delicious, and the sweetness of every taste. Wis. 16:20
- For the creature serving thee, the Creator, is made fierce against the unjust for their punishment: and abateth its strength for the benefit of them that trust in thee. Wis. 16:24
- Therefore even then it was transformed into all things, and was obedient to thy grace, that nourisheth all, according to the will of them that desired it of thee: Wis. 16:25
- That thy children, O Lord, whom thou lovedst, might know that it is not the growing of fruits that nourisheth men, but thy word preserveth them that believe in thee. Wis. 16:26
- For neither did the den that held them, keep them from fear: for noises coming down troubled them, and sad visions appearing to them, affrighted them. Wis. 17:4
- And no power of fire could give them light, neither could the bright flames of the stars enlighten that horrible night. Wis. 17:5
- But there appeared to them a sudden fire, very dreadful: and being struck with the fear of that face, which was not seen, they thought the things which they saw to be worse: Wis. 17:6
- For though no terrible thing disturbed them: yet being scared with the passing by of beasts, and hissing of serpents, they died for fear and denying that they saw the air, which could by no means be avoided. Wis. 17:9
- But they that during that night, in which nothing could be done, and which came upon them from the lowest and deepest hell, slept the same sleep, Wis. 17:13
- Were sometimes molested with the fear of monsters, sometimes fainted away, their soul failing them: for a sudden and unlooked for fear was come upon them. Wis. 17:14
- Moreover, if any of them had fallen down, he was kept shut up in prison without irons. Wis. 17:15
- Or the mighty noise of stones tumbling down, or the running that could not be seen of beasts playing together, or the roaring voice of wild beasts, or a rebounding echo from the highest mountains: these things made them to swoon for fear. Wis. 17:18
- But over them only was spread a heavy night, an image of that darkness which was to come upon them. But they were to themselves more grievous than the darkness. Wis. 17:20
- Therefore they received a burning pillar of fire for a guide of the way which they knew not, and thou gavest them a harmless sun of a good entertainment. Wis. 18:3
- And whereas they thought to kill the babes of the just: one child being cast forth, and saved to reprove them, thou tookest away a multitude of their children, and destroyedst them altogether in a mighty water. Wis. 18:5
- So all alike had innumerable dead, with one kind of death. Neither were the living sufficient to bury them: for in one moment the noblest offspring of them was destroyed. Wis. 18:12
- Then suddenly visions of evil dreams troubled them, and fears unlooked for came upon them. Wis. 18:17
- For the visions that troubled them foreshewed these things, lest they should perish, and not know why they suffered these evils. Wis. 18:19
- And he overcame the disturbance, not by strength of body nor with force of arms, but with a word he subdued him that punished them, alleging the oath and covenant made with the fathers. Wis. 18:22
- And to these the destroyer gave place, and was afraid of them: for the proof only of wrath was enough. Wis. 18:25
- ¤ But as to the wicked, even to the end there came upon them wrath without mercy. For he knew before also what they would do: Wis. 19:1
- For when they had given them leave to depart and had sent them away with great care, they repented and pursued after them. Wis. 19:2
- For whilst they were yet mourning, and lamenting at the graves of the dead, they took up another foolish device: and pursued them as fugitives whom they had pressed to be gone: Wis. 19:3
- For a necessity, of which they were worthy, brought them to this end: and they lost the remembrance of those things which had happened, that their punishment might fill up what was wanting to their torments: Wis. 19:4
- For they fed on their food like horses, and they skipped like lambs, praising thee, O Lord, who hadst delivered them. Wis. 19:9
- For to satisfy their desire, the quail came up to them from the sea: and punishments came upon the sinners, not without foregoing signs by the force of thunders: for they suffered justly according to their own wickedness. Wis. 19:12
- For they exercised a more detestable inhospitality than any: others indeed received not strangers unknown to them, but these brought their guests into bondage that had deserved well of them. Wis. 19:13
- But these grievously afflicted them whom they had received with joy, and who lived under the same laws. Wis. 19:15
- On the other side, the flames wasted not the flesh of corruptible animals walking therein, neither did they melt that good food, which was apt to melt as ice. For in all things thou didst magnify thy people, O Lord, and didst honour them, and didst not despise them, but didst assist them at all times, and in every place. Wis. 19:20
- And he poured her out upon all his works, and upon all flesh according to his gift, and hath given her to them that love him. Sir. 1:10
- Wisdom shall distribute knowledge, and understanding of prudence: and exalteth the glory of them that hold her. Sir. 1:24
- Watch over them, lest thou fall, and bring dishonour upon thy soul, Sir. 1:38
- Woe to them that are of a double heart and to wicked lips, and to the hands that do evil, and to the sinner that goeth on the earth two ways. Sir. 2:14
- Woe to them that are fainthearted, who believe not God: and therefore they shall not be protected by him. Sir. 2:15
- Woe to them that have lost patience, and that have forsaken the right ways, and have gone aside into crooked ways. Sir. 2:16
- He that loveth God, shall obtain pardon for his sins by prayer, and shall refrain himself from them, and shall be heard in the prayer of days. Sir. 3:4
- He that feareth the Lord, honoureth his parents, and will serve them as his masters that brought him into the world. Sir. 3:8
- Seek not the things that are too high for thee, and search not into things above thy ability: but the things that God hath commanded thee, think on them always, and in many of his works be not curious. Sir. 3:22
- And the suspicion of them hath deceived many, and hath detained their minds in vanity. Sir. 3:26
- The congregation of the proud shall not be healed: for the plant of wickedness shall take root in them, and it shall not be perceived. Sir. 3:30
- Turn not away thy eyes from the poor for fear of anger: and leave not to them that ask of thee to curse thee behind thy back. Sir. 4:5
- Wisdom inspireth life into her children, and protecteth them that seek after her, and will go before them in the way of justice. Sir. 4:12
- They that serve her, shall be servants to the holy one: and God loveth them that love her. Sir. 4:15
- Be not as a lion in thy house, terrifying them of thy household, and oppressing them that are under thee. Sir. 4:35
- A friend if he continue steadfast, shall be to thee as thyself, and shall act with confidence among them of thy household. Sir. 6:11
- She shall be to them as a mighty stone of trial, and they will cast her from them before it be long. Sir. 6:22
- For the wisdom of doctrine is according to her name, and she is not manifest unto many, but with them to whom she is known, she continueth even to the sight of God. Sir. 6:23
- My son, sow not evils in the furrows of injustice, and thou shalt not reap them sevenfold. Sir. 7:3
- Hast thou cattle? have an eye to them: and if they be for thy profit, keep them with thee. Sir. 7:24
- Hast thou children? instruct them, and bow down their neck from their childhood. Sir. 7:25
- Hast thou daughters? have a care of their body, and shew not thy countenance gay towards them. Sir. 7:26
- Remember that thou hadst not been born but through them: and make a return to them as they have done for thee. Sir. 7:30
- Give them their portion, as it is commanded thee, of the firstfruits and of purifications: and for thy negligences purify thyself with a few. Sir. 7:34
- Be not wanting in comforting them that weep, and walk with them that mourn. Sir. 7:38
- For gold and silver hath destroyed many, and hath reached even to the heart of kings, and perverted them. Sir. 8:3
- Despise not the discourse of them that are ancient and wise, but acquaint thyself with their proverbs. Sir. 8:9
- For of them thou shalt learn wisdom, and instruction of understanding, and to serve great men without blame. Sir. 8:10
- For of them thou shalt learn understanding, and to give an answer in time of need. Sir. 8:12
- Kindle not the coals of sinners by rebuking them, lest thou be burnt with the flame of the fire of their sins. Sir. 8:13
- Advise not with fools, for they cannot love but such things as please them. Sir. 8:20
- Know it to be a communication with death: for thou art going in the midst of snares, and walking upon the arms of them that are grieved. Sir. 9:20
- Therefore hath the Lord disgraced the assemblies of the wicked, and hath utterly destroyed them. Sir. 10:16
- The Lord hath overthrown the lands of the Gentiles, and hath destroyed them even to the foundation. Sir. 10:19
- He hath made some of them to wither away, and hath destroyed them, and hath made the memory of them to cease from the earth. Sir. 10:20
- God hath abolished the memory of the proud, and hath preserved the memory of them that are humble in mind. Sir. 10:21
- Give to the merciful and uphold not the sinner: God will repay vengeance to the ungodly and to sinners, and keep them against the day of vengeance. Sir. 12:4
- The eyes of the Lord are towards them that fear him, and he knoweth all the work of man. Sir. 15:20
- ¤ Rejoice not in ungodly children, if they be multiplied: neither be delighted in them, if the fear of God be not with them. Sir. 16:1
- And he spared not the place where Lot sojourned, but abhorred them for the pride of their word. Sir. 16:9
- He had not pity on them, destroying the whole nation that extolled themselves in their sins. Sir. 16:10
- Behold the heaven, and the heavens of heavens, the deep, and all the earth, and the things that are in them, shall be moved in his sight, Sir. 16:18
- The mountains also, and the hills, and the foundations of the earth: when God shall look upon them, they shall be shaken with trembling. Sir. 16:19
- The works of God are done in judgment from the beginning, and from the making of them he distinguished their parts, and their beginnings in their generations. Sir. 16:26
- Nor shall any of them straiten his neighbour at any time. Sir. 16:28
- He created of him a helpmate like to himself, he gave them counsel, and a tongue, and eyes, and ears, and a heart to devise: and he filled them with the knowledge of understanding. Sir. 17:5
- He created in them the science of the spirit, he filled their heart with wisdom, and shewed them both good and evil. Sir. 17:6
- He set his eye upon their hearts to shew them the greatness of his works: Sir. 17:7
- Moreover he gave them instructions, and the law of life for an inheritance. Sir. 17:9
- He made an everlasting covenant with them, and he shewed them his justice and judgments. Sir. 17:10
- And their eye saw the majesty of his glory, and their ears heard his glorious voice, and he said to them: Beware of all iniquity. Sir. 17:11
- And he gave to every one of them commandment concerning his neighbour. Sir. 17:12
- And afterward he shall rise up, and shall render them their reward, to every one upon their own head, and shall turn them down into the bowels of the earth. Sir. 17:19
- But to the penitent he hath given the way of justice, and he hath strengthened them that were fainting in patience, and hath appointed to them the lot of truth. Sir. 17:20
- Go to the side of the holy age, with them that live and give praise to God. Sir. 17:25
- How great is the mercy of the Lord, and his forgiveness to them that turn to him ! Sir. 17:28
- Therefore God is patient in them, and poureth forth his mercy upon them. Sir. 18:9
- Therefore hath he filled up his mercy in their favour, and hath shewn them the way of justice. Sir. 18:11
- A thief is better than a man that is always lying: but both of them shall inherit destruction. Sir. 20:27
- The manners of lying men are without honour: and their confusion is with them without ceasing. Sir. 20:28
- Presents and gifts blind the eyes of judges, and make them dumb in the mouth, so that they cannot correct. Sir. 20:31
- O Wisdom that is hid, and treasure that is not seen: what profit is there in them both? Sir. 20:32
- Flee from sins as from the face of a serpent: for if thou comest near them, they will take hold of thee. Sir. 21:2
- The congregation of sinners is like tow heaped together, and the end of them is a flame of fire. Sir. 21:10
- She that is bold shameth both her father and husband, and will not be inferior to the ungodly: and shall be disgraced by them both. Sir. 22:5
- He that flingeth a stone at birds, shall drive them away: so he that upbraideth his friend, breaketh friendship. Sir. 22:25
- Who will set a guard before my mouth, and a sure seal upon my lips, that I fall not by them, and that my tongue destroy me not? Sir. 22:33
- ¤ O Lord, father, and sovereign ruler of my life, leave me not to their counsel: nor suffer me to fall by them. Sir. 23:1
- And let not the naming of God be usual in thy mouth, and meddle not with the names of saints, for thou shalt not escape free from them. Sir. 23:10
- I will yet pour out doctrine as prophecy, and will leave it to them that seek wisdom, and will not cease to instruct their offspring even to the holy age. Sir. 24:46
- The things that thou hast not gathered in thy youth, how shalt thou find them in thy old age? Sir. 25:5
- And any affliction, but the affliction from them that hate him: Sir. 25:20
- A good wife is a good portion, she shall be given in the portion of them that fear God, to a man for his good deeds. Sir. 26:3
- Birds resort unto their like: so truth will return to them that practise her. Sir. 27:10
- The lion always lieth in wait for prey: so do sins for them that work iniquities. Sir. 27:11
- They shall perish in a snare that are delighted with the fall of the just: and sorrow shall consume them before they die. Sir. 27:32
- Anger and fury are both of them abominable, and the sinful man shall be subject to them. Sir. 27:33
- For a passionate man kindleth strife, and a sinful man will trouble his friends, and bring in debate in the midst of them that are at peace. Sir. 28:11
- The tongue of a third person hath disquieted many, and scattered them from nation to nation. Sir. 28:16
- The tongue of a third person hath cast out valiant women, and deprived them of their labours. Sir. 28:19
- They that forsake God shall fall into it, and it shall burn in them, and shall not be quenched, and it shall be sent upon them as a lion, and as a leopard it shall tear them. Sir. 28:27
- Many have looked upon a thing lent as a thing found, and have given trouble to them that helped them. Sir. 29:4
- Evil suretyship hath undone many of good estate, and hath tossed them as a wave of the sea. Sir. 29:23
- He that instructeth his son shall be praised in him, and shall glory in him in the midst of them of his household. Sir. 30:2
- Gold is a stumblingblock to them that sacrifice to it: woe to them that eagerly follow after it, and every fool shall perish by it. Sir. 31:7
- Who hath been tried thereby, and made perfect, he shall have glory everlasting. He that could have transgressed, and hath not transgressed: and could do evil things, and hath not done them: Sir. 31:10
- Challenge not them that love wine: for wine hath destroyed very many. Sir. 31:30
- Wine was created from the beginning to make men joyful, and not to make them drunk. Sir. 31:35
- ¤ Have they made thee ruler? be not lifted up: be among them as one of them. Sir. 32:1
- Have care of them, and so sit down, and when thou hast acquitted thyself of all thy charge, take thy place: Sir. 32:2
- That thou mayst rejoice for them, and receive a crown as an ornament of grace, and get the honour of the contribution. Sir. 32:3
- And beware of thy own children, and take heed of them of thy household. Sir. 32:26
- And he ordered the seasons, and holidays of them, and in them they celebrated festivals at an hour. Sir. 33:9
- Some of them God made high and great days, and some of them he put in the number of ordinary days. And all men are from the ground, and out of the earth, from whence Adam was created. Sir. 33:10
- With much knowledge the Lord hath divided them and diversified their ways. Sir. 33:11
- Some of them hath he blessed, and exalted: and some of them hath he sanctified, and set near himself: and some of them hath he cursed and brought low, and turned them from their station. Sir. 33:12
- And the heart fancieth as that of a woman in travail: except it be a vision sent forth from the most High, set not thy heart upon them. Sir. 34:6
- For dreams have deceived many, and they have failed that put their trust in them. Sir. 34:7
- For their hope is on him that saveth them, and the eyes of God are upon them that love him. Sir. 34:15
- The eyes of the Lord are upon them that fear him, he is their powerful protector, and strong stay, a defence from the heat, and a cover from the sun at noon, Sir. 34:19
- The Lord is only for them that wait upon him in the way of truth and justice. Sir. 34:22
- The bread of the needy, is the life of the poor: he that defraudeth them thereof, is a man of blood. Sir. 34:25
- Do not the widow's tears run down the cheek, and her cry against him that causeth them to fall? Sir. 35:18
- For from the cheek they go up even to heaven, and the Lord that heareth will not be delighted with them. Sir. 35:19
- And the Lord will not be slack, but will judge for the just, and will do judgment: and the Almighty will not have patience with them, that he may crush their back: Sir. 35:22
- For as thou hast been sanctified in us in their sight, so thou shalt be magnified among them in our presence, Sir. 36:4
- Let him that escapeth be consumed by the rage of the fire: and let them perish that oppress thy people. Sir. 36:11
- Gather together all the tribes of Jacob: that they may know that there is no God besides thee, and may declare thy great works: and thou shalt inherit them as from the beginning. Sir. 36:13
- Give testimony to them that are thy creatures from the beginning, and raise up the prophecies which the former prophets spoke in thy name. Sir. 36:17
- Reward them that patiently wait for thee, that thy prophets may be found faithful: and hear the prayers of thy servants, Sir. 36:18
- Consult not with him that layeth a snare for thee, and hide thy counsel from them that envy thee. Sir. 37:7
- A wicked word shall change the heart: out of which four manner of things arise, good and evil, life and death: and the tongue is continually the ruler of them. There is a man that is subtle and a teacher of many, and yet is unprofitable to his own soul. Sir. 37:21
- The most High hath created medicines out of the earth, and a wise man will not abhor them. Sir. 38:4
- He setteth his mind to finish his work, and his watching to polish them to perfection. Sir. 38:31
- In the time of destruction they shall pour out their force: and they shall appease the wrath of him that made them. Sir. 39:34
- Therefore from the beginning I was resolved, and I have meditated, and thought on these things and left them in writing, Sir. 39:38
- Children, and the building of a city shall establish a name, but a blameless wife shall be counted above them both. Sir. 40:19
- Wine and music rejoice the heart, but the love of wisdom is above them both. Sir. 40:20
- The flute and the psaltery make a sweet melody, but a pleasant tongue is above them both. Sir. 40:21
- A friend and companion meeting together in season, but above them both is a wife with her husband. Sir. 40:23
- Gold and silver make the feet stand sure: but wise counsel is above them both. Sir. 40:25
- My children, keep discipline in peace: for wisdom that is hid, and a treasure that is not seen, what profit is there in them both? Sir. 41:17
- Of silence before them that salute thee: of looking upon a harlot: and of turning away thy face from thy kinsman. Sir. 41:25
- Let them that sail on the sea, tell the dangers thereof: and when we hear with our ears, we shall admire. Sir. 43:26
- They that were born of them have left a name behind them, that their praises might be related: Sir. 44:8
- And there are some, of whom there is no memorial: who are perished, as if they had never been: and are become as if they had never been born, and their children with them. Sir. 44:9
- No stranger was ever clothed with them, but only his children alone, and his grandchildren for ever. Sir. 45:16
- He wrought wonders upon them, and consumed them with a flame of fire. Sir. 45:24
- He prepared them bread in the first place unto fulness: for the sacrifices also of the Lord they shall eat, which he gave to him, and to his seed. Sir. 45:26

- And Gorgias and his men went out of the city, to give them battle. 1 Ma. 5:59
- And the people assembled to them with joyful acclamations. 1 Ma. 5:64
- So he came, and sought to take the city and to pillage it; but he was not able, because the design was known to them that were in the city. 1 Ma. 6:3
- And he called for all his friends, and said to them: Sleep is gone from my eyes, and I am fallen away, and my heart is cast down for anxiety: 1 Ma. 6:10
- And Judas purposed to destroy them: and he called together all the people, to besiege them. 1 Ma. 6:19
- And they came together, and besieged them in the year one hundred and fifty, and they made battering slings and engines. 1 Ma. 6:20
- And some of the besieged got out: and some wicked men of Israel joined themselves unto them. 1 Ma. 6:21
- And unless thou speedily prevent them, they will do greater things than these, and thou shalt not be able to subdue them. 1 Ma. 6:27
- Now when the king heard this, he was angry: and he called together all his friends, and the captains of his army, and them that were over the horsemen. 1 Ma. 6:28
- And they went through Idumea, and approached to Bethsura, and fought many days, and they made engines: but they sallied forth, and burnt them with fire, and fought manfully. 1 Ma. 6:31
- And they shewed the elephants the blood of grapes, and mulberries, to provoke them to fight. 1 Ma. 6:34
- And upon the beast, there were strong wooden towers which covered every one of them: and engines upon them, and upon every one thirty-two valiant men, who fought from above: and an Indian to rule the beast. 1 Ma. 6:37
- And the rest of the horsemen he placed on this side and on that side, at the two wings, with trumpets to stir up the army, and to hasten them forward that stood thick together in the legions thereof. 1 Ma. 6:38
- Then they seeing the strength of the king and the fierceness of his army, turned away from them. 1 Ma. 6:47
- But the king's army went up against them to Jerusalem: and the king's army pitched their tents against Judea and Mount Sion. 1 Ma. 6:48
- And he made peace with them that were in Bethsura: and they came forth out of the city, because they had no victuals, being shut up there, for it was the year of rest to the land. 1 Ma. 6:49
- But there were no victuals in the city, because it was the seventh year: and such as had stayed in Judea of them that came from among the nations, had eaten the residue of all that which had been stored up. 1 Ma. 6:53
- And there remained in the holy places but a few, for the famine had prevailed over them: and they were dispersed every man to his own place. 1 Ma. 6:54
- Now, therefore, let us come to an agreement with these men, and make peace with them and with all their nation. 1 Ma. 6:58
- And let us covenant with them, that they may live according to their own laws, as before. For because of our despising their laws, they have been provoked, and have done all these things. 1 Ma. 6:59
- And the proposal was acceptable in the sight of the king, and of the princes: and he sent to them to make peace: and they accepted of it. 1 Ma. 6:60
- And the king and the princes swore to them: and they came out of the strong hold. 1 Ma. 6:61
- And it came to pass as he entered into the house of the kingdom of his fathers, that the army seized upon Antiochus, and Lysias, to bring them unto him. 1 Ma. 7:2
- So the army slew them. And Demetrius sat upon the throne of his kingdom: 1 Ma. 7:4
- And there came to him the wicked and ungodly men of Israel: and Alcimus was at the head of them, who desired to be made high priest. 1 Ma. 7:5
- And first the Assideans, that were among the children of Israel, and they sought peace of them. 1 Ma. 7:13
- And he spoke to them peaceably: and he swore to them, saying: We will do you no harm, nor your friends. 1 Ma. 7:15
- And they believed him. And he took threescore of them, and slew them in one day, according to the word that is written: 1 Ma. 7:16
- The flesh of thy saints, and the blood of them they have shed round about Jerusalem, and there was none to bury them. 1 Ma. 7:17
- Then fear and trembling fell upon all the people: for they said: There is no truth, nor justice among them: for they have broken the covenant, and the oath which they made. 1 Ma. 7:18
- And Bacchides removed the camp from Jerusalem, and pitched in Bethzecha: and he sent, and took many of them that were fled away from him, and some of the people he killed, and threw them into a great pit. 1 Ma. 7:19
- And Alcimus saw that Judas and they that were with him, prevailed: and he knew that he could not stand against them, and he went back to the king, and accused them of many crimes. 1 Ma. 7:25
- But he mocked and despised them, and abused them: and he spoke proudly, 1 Ma. 7:34
- Be avenged of this man, and his army, and let them fall by the sword: remember their blasphemies, and suffer them not to continue any longer. 1 Ma. 7:38
- O Lord, when they that were sent by king Sennacherib blasphemed thee, an angel went out, and slew of them a hundred and eighty-five thousand: 1 Ma. 7:41
- And they pursued after them one day's journey from Adazer, even till ye come to Gazara, and they sounded the trumpets after them with signals. 1 Ma. 7:45
- And they went forth out of all the towns of Judea round about, and they pushed them with the horns, and they turned again to them, and they were all slain with the sword, and there was not left of them so much as one. 1 Ma. 7:46
- And they took the spoils of them for a booty, and they cut off Nicanor's head, and his right hand, which he had proudly stretched out, and they brought it, and hung it up over against Jerusalem. 1 Ma. 7:47
- ¤ Now Judas heard of the fame of the Romans, that they are powerful and strong, and willingly agree to all things that are requested of them: and that whosoever have come to them, they have made amity with them, and that they are mighty in power. 1 Ma. 8:1
- And they heard of their battles, and their noble acts which they had done in Galatia, how they had conquered them, and brought them under tribute: 1 Ma. 8:2
- And had conquered places that were very far off from them, and kings that came against them from the ends of the earth, and had overthrown them with great slaughter: and the rest pay them tribute every year. 1 Ma. 8:4
- And that they had defeated in battle Philip and Perses the king of the Ceteans, and the rest that had borne arms against them, and had conquered them: 1 Ma. 8:5
- And how Antiochus, the great king of Asia, who went to fight against them, having a hundred and twenty elephants, with horsemen, and chariots, and a very great army, was routed by them. 1 Ma. 8:6
- And the country of the Indians, and of the Medes, and of the Lydians, some of their best provinces: and those which they had taken from them, they gave to king Eumenes. 1 Ma. 8:8
- And that they who were in Greece, had a mind to go and to destroy them: and they had knowledge thereof, 1 Ma. 8:9
- And they sent a general against them, and fought with them, and many of them were slain, and they carried away their wives, and their children captives, and spoiled them, and took possession of their land, and threw down their walls, and brought them to be their servants unto this day. 1 Ma. 8:10
- And the other kingdoms, and islands, that at any time had resisted them, they had destroyed and brought under their power. 1 Ma. 8:11
- But with their friends, and such as relied upon them, they kept amity, and had conquered kingdoms that were near, and that were far off: for all that heard their name, were afraid of them. 1 Ma. 8:12
- And that they committed their government to one man every year, to rule over all their country, and they all obey one, and there is no envy nor jealousy amongst them. 1 Ma. 8:16
- So Judas chose Eupolemus, the son of John, the son of Jacob, and Jason, the son of Eleazar, and he sent them to Rome to make a league of amity and confederacy with them: 1 Ma. 8:17
- And that they might take off from them the yoke of the Grecians, for they saw that they oppressed the kingdom of Israel with servitude. 1 Ma. 8:18
- And this is the copy of the writing that they wrote back again, graven in tables of brass, and sent to Jerusalem, that it might be with them there for a memorial of the peace, and alliance. 1 Ma. 8:22
- GOOD SUCCESS BE TO THE ROMANS, and to the people of the Jews by sea, and by land, for ever: and far be the sword and enemy from them. 1 Ma. 8:23
- The nation of the Jews shall help them according as the time shall direct, with all their heart: 1 Ma. 8:25
- Neither shall they give them, whilst they are fighting, or furnish them with wheat, or arms, or money, or ships, as it hath seemed good to the Romans: and they shall obey their orders, without taking any thing of them. 1 Ma. 8:26
- In like manner also if war shall come first upon the nation of the Jews, the Romans shall help them with all their heart, according as the time shall permit them: 1 Ma. 8:27
- And there shall not be given to them that come to their aid, either wheat, or arms, or money, or ships, as it hath seemed good to the Romans: and they shall observe their orders without deceit. 1 Ma. 8:28
- Moreover, concerning the evils that Demetrius, the king, hath done against them, we have written to him, saying: Why hast thou made thy yoke heavy upon our friends and allies, the Jews. 1 Ma. 8:31
- If, therefore, they come again to us complaining of thee, we will do them justice, and will make war against thee by sea and land. 1 Ma. 8:32
- ¤ In the mean time, when Demetrius heard that Nicanor and his army were fallen in battle, he sent again Bacchides and Alcimus into Judea; and the right wing of his army with them. 1 Ma. 9:1
- And they saw the multitude of the army that they were many, and they were seized with great fear: and many withdrew themselves out of the camp, and there remained of them no more than eight hundred men. 1 Ma. 9:6
- And Judas saw that his army slipped away, and the battle pressed upon him, and his heart was cast down: because he had not time to gather them together, and he was discouraged. 1 Ma. 9:7
- Then he said to them that remained: Let us arise, and go against our enemies, if we may be able to fight against them. 1 Ma. 9:8
- But they dissuaded him, saying: We shall not be able, but let us save our lives now, and return to our brethren, and then we will fight against them: for we are but few. 1 Ma. 9:9
- Then Judas said: God forbid we should do this thing, and flee away from them: but if our time be come, let us die manfully for our brethren, and let us not stain our glory. 1 Ma. 9:10
- And the army removed out of the camp, and they stood over against them: and the horsemen were divided into two troops, and the slingers, and the archers, went before the army, and they that were in the front were all men of valour. 1 Ma. 9:11
- And the right wing was discomfited by them, and he pursued them even to the mount Azotus. 1 Ma. 9:15
- And they that were in the left wing saw that the right wing was discomfited, and they followed after Judas, and them that were with him, at their back: 1 Ma. 9:16
- And Bacchides chose the wicked men, and made them lords of the country: 1 Ma. 9:25
- And they sought out, and made diligent search after the friends of Judas, and brought them to Bacchides, and he took vengeance of them, and abused them. 1 Ma. 9:26
- Since thy brother Judas died there is not a man like him to go forth against our enemies, Bacchides, and them that are the enemies of our nation. 1 Ma. 9:29
- And Jonathan, and Simon, his brother, knew it, and all that were with them: and they fled into the desert of Thecua, and they pitched by the water of the lake of Asphar, 1 Ma. 9:33
- And Jonathan sent his brother, a captain of the people, to desire the Nabutheans his friends, that they would lend them their equipage, which was copious. 1 Ma. 9:35
- And the children of Jambri came forth out of Madaba, and took John, and all that he had, and went away with them. 1 Ma. 9:36
- And they lifted up their eyes, and saw: and behold a tumult, and great preparation: and the bridegroom came forth, and his friends, and his brethren to meet them with timbrels, and musical instruments and many weapons. 1 Ma. 9:39
- And they rose up against them from the place where they lay in ambush, and slew them, and there fell many wounded, and the rest fled into the mountains, and they took all their spoils: 1 Ma. 9:40
- And Jonathan, and they that were with him, leapt into the Jordan, and swam over the Jordan to them. 1 Ma. 9:48
- And he placed garrisons in them, that they might wage war against Israel: 1 Ma. 9:51
- And he fortified the city of Bethsura, and Gazara, and the castle, and set garrisons in them, and provisions of victuals: 1 Ma. 9:52
- And he took the sons of the chief men of the country for hostages, and put them in the castle in Jerusalem in custody. 1 Ma. 9:53
- And all the wicked held a council, saying: Behold Jonathan, and they that are with him, dwell at ease and without fear: now, therefore, let us bring Bacchides hither, and he shall take them all in one night. 1 Ma. 9:58
- And he arose to come with a great army: and he sent secretly letters to his adherents that were in Judea to seize upon Jonathan, and them that were with him: but they could not, for their design was known to them. 1 Ma. 9:60
- And he apprehended of the men of the country, that were the principal authors of the mischief, fifty men, and he slew them. 1 Ma. 9:61
- And when Bacchides knew it, he gathered together all his multitude: and sent word to them that were of Judea. 1 Ma. 9:63
- And they fought against Bacchides, and he was discomfited by them: and they afflicted him exceedingly, for his counsel, and his enterprise was in vain. 1 Ma. 9:68
- And he was angry with the wicked men that had given him counsel to come into their country, and he slew many of them: and he purposed to return with the rest into their country. 1 Ma. 9:69
- And Jonathan came to Jerusalem, and read the letters in the hearing of all the people, and of them that were in the castle. 1 Ma. 10:7
- And the hostages were delivered to Jonathan, and he restored them to their parents. 1 Ma. 10:9
- Only in Bethsura there remained some of them, that had forsaken the law, and the commandments of God: for this was a place of refuge for them. 1 Ma. 10:14
- I also will write to them words of request, and offer dignities, and gifts: that they may be with me to aid me. 1 Ma. 10:24
- And he wrote to them in these words: King Demetrius to the nation of the Jews, greeting. 1 Ma. 10:25
- And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause. 1 Ma. 10:35
- And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them, as is due to all the king's forces and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king: 1 Ma. 10:36
- And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda. 1 Ma. 10:37
- And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest: 1 Ma. 10:38
- And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free. 1 Ma. 10:43
- Now when Jonathan and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them, nor received them because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly. 1 Ma. 10:46
- And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close. 1 Ma. 10:49
- And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight. 1 Ma. 10:60
- And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him, to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them. 1 Ma. 10:61
- And he went to Azotus, as one that was making a journey, and immediately he went forth into the plain: because he had a great number of horsemen, and he trusted in them. And Jonathan followed after him to Azotus, and they joined battle. 1 Ma. 10:78
- And Apollonius left privately in the camp a thousand horsemen behind them. 1 Ma. 10:79
- But the people stood still, as Jonathan had commanded them: and so their horses were fatigued. 1 Ma. 10:81
- But Jonathan set fire to Azotus, and the cities that were round about it, and took the spoils of them and the temple of Dagon: and all them that were fled into it, he burnt with fire. 1 Ma. 10:84
- So they that were slain by the sword, with them that were burnt, were almost eight thousand men. 1 Ma. 10:85
- And he went out into Syria with peaceable words and they opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law. 1 Ma. 11:2
- And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof, that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way. 1 Ma. 11:4
- And king Ptolemee died the third day after: and they that were in the strong holds were destroyed by them that were within the camp. 1 Ma. 11:18
- In those days Jonathan gathered together them that were in Judea, to take the castle that was in Jerusalem: and they made many engines of war against it. 1 Ma. 11:20
- But when Jonathan heard this, he bade them besiege it still: and he chose some of the ancients of Israel, and of the priests, and put himself in danger 1 Ma. 11:23
- We have ratified, therefore, unto them all the borders of Judea, and the three cities, Apherema, Lydda, and Ramatha, which are added to Judea, out of Samaria, and all their confines, to be set apart to all them that sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them every year, and for the fruits of the land, and of the trees. 1 Ma. 11:34
- And as for other things that belonged to us of the tithes, and of the tributes, from this time we discharge them of them: the saltpans also, and the crowns that were presented to us. 1 Ma. 11:35
- We give all to them, and nothing hereof shall be revoked from this time forth and for ever. 1 Ma. 11:36
- And Jonathan sent to king Demetrius, desiring that he would cast out them that were in the castle in Jerusalem, and those that were in the strong holds: because they fought against Israel. 1 Ma. 11:41
- And the men of Gaza made supplication to Jonathan, and he gave them the right hand: and he took their sons for hostages, and sent them to Jerusalem: and he went through the country, as far as Damascus. 1 Ma. 11:62
- And he went against them: but left his brother, Simon, in the country. 1 Ma. 11:64
- And Simon encamped against Bethsura, and assaulted it many days, and shut them up. 1 Ma. 11:65
- And they desired him to make peace, and he granted it them: and he cast them out from thence, and took the city, and placed a garrison in it. 1 Ma. 11:66
- And behold the army of the strangers met him in the plain, and they laid an ambush for him in the mountains: but he went out against them. 1 Ma. 11:68
- And all that were on Jonathan's side fled, and none was left of them, but Mathathias, the son of Absalom, and Judas, the son of Calphi, chief captain of the army. 1 Ma. 11:70
- And Jonathan turned again to them to battle, and he put them to flight, and they fought. 1 Ma. 11:72
- ¤ And Jonathan saw that the time served him, and he chose certain men, and sent them to Rome, to confirm and to renew the amity with them: 1 Ma. 12:1
- And they gave them letters to their governors in every place, to conduct them into the land of Juda with peace. 1 Ma. 12:4
- We have chosen, therefore, Numenius the son of Antiochus, and Antipater, the son of Jason, and have sent them to the Romans, to renew with them the former amity and alliance. 1 Ma. 12:16
- And we have commanded them to go also to you, and to salute you, and to deliver you our letters, concerning the renewing of our brotherhood. 1 Ma. 12:17
- So he went out from Jerusalem, and met them in the land of Amath: for he gave them no time to enter into his country. 1 Ma. 12:25
- And he sent spies into their camp, and they came back, and brought him word that they designed to come upon them in the night. 1 Ma. 12:26
- And Jonathan pursued after them, but overtook them not: for they had passed the river Eleutherus. 1 Ma. 12:30
- And Jonathan turned upon the Arabians, that are called Zabadeans: and he defeated them, and took the spoils of them. 1 Ma. 12:31
- (For he heard that they designed to deliver the hold to them that took part with Demetrius) and he put a garrison there to keep it. 1 Ma. 12:34
- And Jonathan came back, and called together the ancients of the people; and he took a resolution with them to build fortresses in Judea, 1 Ma. 12:35
- Now, therefore, send them back to their own houses: and choose thee a few men that may be with thee, and come with me to Ptolemais, and I will deliver it to thee, and the rest of the strong holds, and the army, and all that have any charge, and I will return and go away: for this is the cause of my coming. 1 Ma. 12:45
- Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, they of Ptolemais shut the gates of the city, and took him: and all them that came in with him they slew with the sword. 1 Ma. 12:48
- Then they that had come after them, seeing that they stood for their lives, returned back. 1 Ma. 12:51
- Whereupon they all came peaceably into the land of Juda and they bewailed Jonathan, and them that had been with him, exceedingly: and Israel mourned with great lamentation. 1 Ma. 12:52
- Then all the heathens that were round about them, sought to destroy them. For they said: 1 Ma. 12:53
- They have no prince, nor any to help them: now therefore, let us make war upon them, and take away the memory of them from amongst men. 1 Ma. 12:54
- And exhorted them, saying: You know what great battles I and my brethren, and the house of my father, have fought for the laws, and the sanctuary, and the distresses that we have seen: 1 Ma. 13:3
- And he sent Jonathan, the son of Absalom, and with him a new army, into Joppe, and he cast out them that were in it, and himself remained there. 1 Ma. 13:11
- And they that were in the castle, sent messengers to Tryphon, that he should make haste to come through the desert, and send them victuals. 1 Ma. 13:21
- And Simon sent, and took the bones of Jonathan, his brother, and buried them in Modin, the city of his fathers. 1 Ma. 13:25
- And Simon built up the strong holds of Judea, fortifying them with high towers, and great walls, and gates and bars: and he stored up victuals in the fortresses. 1 Ma. 13:33
- And if any of you be fit to be enrolled among ours, let them be enrolled, and let there be peace between us. 1 Ma. 13:40
- In those days Simon besieged Gaza, and camped round about it, and he made engines, and set them to the city, and he struck one tower, and took it. 1 Ma. 13:43
- And they that were in the city went up, with their wives and children, upon the wall, with their garments rent, and they cried with a loud voice, beseeching Simon to grant them peace. 1 Ma. 13:45
- And Simon being moved, did not destroy them but yet he cast them out of the city, and cleansed the houses wherein there had been idols, and then he entered into it with hymns, blessing the Lord: 1 Ma. 13:47
- But they that were in the castle of Jerusalem were hindered from going out and coming into the country, and from buying and selling: and they were straitened with hunger, and many of them perished through famine. 1 Ma. 13:49
- And they cried to Simon for peace, and he granted it to them: and he cast them out from thence and cleansed the castle from uncleannesses. 1 Ma. 13:50
- And all the land of Juda was at rest all the days of Simon, and he sought the good of his nation: and his power, and his glory pleased them well all his days. 1 Ma. 14:4
- The ancient men sat all in the streets, and treated together of the good things of the land, and the young men put on them glory, and the robes of war. 1 Ma. 14:9
- And every man sat under his vine, and under his fig tree: and there was none to make them afraid. 1 Ma. 14:12
- There was none left in the land to fight against them: kings were discomfited in those days. 1 Ma. 14:13
- And we registered what was said by them in the councils of the people, in this manner: Numenius, the son of Antiochus, and Antipater, the son of Jason, ambassadors of the Jews, came to us to renew the former friendship with us. 1 Ma. 14:22
- And it pleased the people to receive the men honourably, and to put a copy of their words in the public records, to be a memorial to the people of the Spartans. And we have written a copy of them to Simon, the high priest. 1 Ma. 14:23
- And after this Simon sent Numenius to Rome, with a great shield of gold, of the weight of a thousand pounds, to confirm the league with them. And when the people of Rome had heard 1 Ma. 14:24
- For he hath restored his brethren, and hath driven away in fight the enemies of Israel from them: and they decreed him liberty, and registered it in tables of brass, and set it upon pillars in mount Sion. 1 Ma. 14:26
- Then Simon resisted and fought for his nation, and laid out much of his money, and armed the valiant men of his nation, and gave them wages. 1 Ma. 14:32
- And he fortified Joppe, which lieth by the sea: and Gazara, which bordereth upon Azotus, wherein the enemies dwelt before, and he placed Jews here: and furnished them with all things convenient for their reparation. 1 Ma. 14:34
- And that he should be chief over them, and that he should have the charge of the sanctuary, and that he should appoint rulers over their works, and over the country, and over the armour, and over the strong holds; 1 Ma. 14:42
- And I design to go through the country, that I may take revenge of them that have destroyed our country, and that have made many cities desolate in my realm. 1 Ma. 15:4
- And let Jerusalem be holy and free, and all the armour that hath been made, and the fortresses which thou hast built, and which thou keepest in thy hands, let them remain to thee. 1 Ma. 15:7
- It hath seemed good therefore to us, to write to the kings and countries, that they should do them no harm, nor fight against them, their cities, or countries: and that they should give no aid to them that fight against them. 1 Ma. 15:19
- And it hath seemed good to us to receive the shield of them. 1 Ma. 15:20
- If, therefore, any pestilent men are fled out of their country to you, deliver them to Simon, the high priest, that he may punish them according to their law. 1 Ma. 15:21
- And he would not receive them, but broke all the covenant that he had made with him before, and alienated himself from him. 1 Ma. 15:27
- But if not, give me for them five hundred talents of silver, and for the havoc that you have made, and the tributes of the cities, other five hundred talents: or else we will come and fight against you. 1 Ma. 15:31
- And Simon called his two eldest sons, Judas and John, and said to them: I and my brethren, and my father's house, have fought against the enemies of Israel from our youth even to this day: and things have prospered so well in our hands, that we have delivered Israel oftentimes. 1 Ma. 16:2
- And they arose in the morning, and went into the plain: and behold a very great army of footmen and horsemen came against them, and there was a running river between them. 1 Ma. 16:5
- And he and his people pitched their camp over against them, and he saw that the people were afraid to go over the river, so he went over first: then the men seeing him, passed over after him. 1 Ma. 16:6
- And they sounded the holy trumpets: and Cendebeus and his army were put to flight: and there fell many of them wounded, and the rest fled into the strong hold. 1 Ma. 16:8
- At that time, Judas, John's brother, was wounded: but John pursued after them, till he came to Cedron, which he had built: 1 Ma. 16:9
- And they fled even to the towers that were in the fields of Azotus, and he burnt them with fire. And there fell of them two thousand men, and he returned into Judea in peace. 1 Ma. 16:10
- And his heart was lifted up, and he designed to make himself master of the country, and he purposed treachery against Simon and his sons, to destroy them. 1 Ma. 16:13
- Now Simon, as he was going through the cities that were in the country of Judea, and taking care for the good ordering of them, went down to Jericho, he and Mathathias and Judas, his sons, in the year one hundred and seventy-seven, the eleventh month: the same is the month Sabath. 1 Ma. 16:14
- And the son of Abobus received them deceitfully into a little fortress, that is called Doch, which he had built: and he made them a great feast, and hid men there. 1 Ma. 16:15
- And he sent others to Gazara to kill John: and to the tribunes he sent letters to come to him, and that he would give them silver, and gold, and gifts. 1 Ma. 16:19
- But when he heard it, he was exceedingly afraid: and he apprehended the men that came to kill him, and he put them to death: for he knew that they sought to make him away. 1 Ma. 16:22
- When Antiochus was come in: and opening a secret entrance of the temple, they cast stones and slew the leader, and them that were with him, and hewed them in pieces; and cutting off their heads, they threw them forth. 2 Ma. 1:16
- Then he bade them draw it up, and bring it to him: and the priest, Nehemias, commanded the sacrifices that were laid on, to be sprinkled with the same water, both the wood, and the things that were laid upon it. 2 Ma. 1:21
- Who alone art gracious, who alone art just, and almighty, and eternal, who deliverest Israel from all evil, who didst choose the fathers, and didst sanctify them: 2 Ma. 1:25
- Gather together our scattered people, deliver them that are slaves to the Gentiles, and look upon them that are despised and abhorred: that the Gentiles may know that thou art our God 2 Ma. 1:27
- Punish them that oppress us, and that treat us injuriously with pride. 2 Ma. 1:28
- Which being done, there was kindled a flame from them: but it was consumed by the light that shined from the altar. 2 Ma. 1:32
- And when he had proved it, he gave the priests many goods, and divers presents, and he took and distributed them to them with his own hand. 2 Ma. 1:35
- ¤ Now it is found in the descriptions of Jeremias, the prophet, that he commanded them that went into captivity, to take the fire, as it hath been signified, and how he gave charge to them that were carried away into captivity. 2 Ma. 2:1
- And how he gave them the law, that they should not forget the commandments of the Lord, and that they should not err in their minds, seeing the idols of gold, and silver, and the ornaments of them. 2 Ma. 2:2
- And with other such like speeches, he exhorted them that they would not remove the law from their heart. 2 Ma. 2:3
- Then some of them that followed him, came up to mark the place: but they could not find it. 2 Ma. 2:6
- And when Jeremias perceived it, he blamed them, saying: The place shall be unknown, till God gather together the congregation of the people, and receive them to mercy. 2 Ma. 2:7
- Wherefore, if you want these things, send some that may fetch them to you. 2 Ma. 2:15
- And the manifestations that came from heaven to them, that behaved themselves manfully on the behalf of the Jews, so that, being but a few they made themselves masters of the whole country, and put to flight the barbarous multitude: 2 Ma. 2:22
- And recovered again the most renowned temple in all the world, and delivered the city, and restored the laws that were abolished, the Lord with all clemency shewing mercy to them. 2 Ma. 2:23
- But that to deceive them who had trusted to the place and temple which is honoured throughout the whole world, for the reverence and holiness of it, was a thing which could not by any means be done. 2 Ma. 3:12
- And the priests prostrated themselves before the altar in their priests' vestments, and called upon him from heaven, who made the law concerning things given to be kept, that he would preserve them safe, for them that had deposited them. 2 Ma. 3:15
- For the man was so compassed with sadness and horror of the body, that it was manifest to them that beheld him, what sorrow he had in his heart. 2 Ma. 3:17
- And these indeed called upon almighty God, to preserve the things that had been committed to them safe and sure for those that had committed them. 2 Ma. 3:22
- For there appeared to them a horse, with a terrible rider upon him, adorned with a very rich covering: and he ran fiercely and struck Heliodorus with his fore feet, and he that sat upon him seemed to have armour of gold. 2 Ma. 3:25
- For he that hath his dwelling in the heavens, is the visitor and protector of that place, and he striketh and destroyeth them that come to do evil to it. 2 Ma. 3:39
- Besides this he promised also a hundred and fifty more, if he might have license to set him up a place for exercise, and a place for youth, and to entitle them that were at Jerusalem, Antiochians. 2 Ma. 4:9
- For the sake of which they incurred a dangerous contention, and followed earnestly their ordinances, and in all things they coveted to be like them, who were their enemies and murderers. 2 Ma. 4:16
- So the money was appointed by him that sent it to the sacrifice of Hercules: but because of them that carried it was employed for the making of galleys. 2 Ma. 4:20
- The king, therefore, went in all haste to appease them, leaving Andronicus, one of his nobles, for his deputy. 2 Ma. 4:31
- Then Menelaus supposing that he had found a convenient time, having stolen certain vessels of gold out of the temple, gave them to Andronicus, and others he had sold at Tyre, and in the neighbouring cities: 2 Ma. 4:32
- And many of them were wounded, and some struck down to the ground, but all were put to flight: and as for the sacrilegious fellow himself, they slew him beside the treasury. 2 Ma. 4:42
- And so through the covetousness of them that were in power, Menelaus continued in authority, increasing in malice to the betraying of the citizens. 2 Ma. 4:50
- And taking in his wicked hands the holy vessels, which were given by other kings and cities, for the ornament and the glory of the place, he unworthily handled and profaned them. 2 Ma. 5:16
- And there went out a decree into the neighbouring cities of the Gentiles, by the suggestion of the Ptolemeans, that they also should act in like manner against the Jews, to oblige them to sacrifice: 2 Ma. 6:8
- For, not as with other nations, (whom the Lord patiently expecteth, that when the day of judgment shall come, he may punish them in the fulness of their sins:) 2 Ma. 6:14
- And therefore he never withdraweth his mercy from us: but though he chastise his people with adversity he forsaketh them not. 2 Ma. 6:16
- But one of them, who was the eldest, said thus: What wouldst thou ask, or learn of us? we are ready to die, rather than to transgress the laws of God, received from our fathers. 2 Ma. 7:2
- And said with confidence: These I have from heaven, but for the laws of God I now despise them, because I hope to receive them again from him. 2 Ma. 7:11
- And she bravely exhorted every one of them in her own language, being filled with wisdom; and joining a man's heart to a woman's thought, 2 Ma. 7:21
- She said to them: I know not how you were formed in my womb; for I neither gave you breath, nor soul, nor life, neither did I frame the limbs of every one of you. 2 Ma. 7:22
- I beseech thee, my son, look upon heaven and earth, and all that is in them, and consider that God made them out of nothing, and mankind also: 2 Ma. 7:28
- ¤ But Judas Machabeus, and they that were with him, went privately into the towns: and calling together their kinsmen and friends, and taking unto them such as continued in the Jews' religion, they assembled six thousand men. 2 Ma. 8:1
- So coming unawares upon the towns and cities, he set them on fire, and taking possession of the most commodious places, he made no small slaughter of the enemies: 2 Ma. 8:6
- And some of them being afraid, and distrusting the justice of God, fled away. 2 Ma. 8:13
- Others sold all that they had left, and withal besought the Lord, that he would deliver them from the wicked Nicanor, who had sold them before he came near them: 2 Ma. 8:14
- And if not for their sakes, yet for the covenant that he had made with their fathers, and for the sake of his holy and glorious name that was invoked upon them. 2 Ma. 8:15
- But Machabeus calling together seven thousand that were with him, exhorted them not to be reconciled to the enemies, nor to fear the multitude of the enemies who came wrongfully against them, but to fight manfully: 2 Ma. 8:16
- For, said he, they trust in their weapons, and in their boldness: but we trust in the Almighty Lord, who at a beck can utterly destroy both them that come against us, and the whole world. 2 Ma. 8:18
- Moreover, he put them in mind also of the helps their fathers had received from God: and how, under Sennacherib, a hundred and eighty-five thousand had been destroyed. 2 Ma. 8:19
- And after the holy book had been read to them by Esdras, and he had given them for a watchword, The help of God: himself leading the first band, he joined battle with Nicanor: 2 Ma. 8:23
- And the Almighty being their helper, they slew above nine thousand men: and having wounded and disabled the greater part of Nicanor's army, they obliged them to fly. 2 Ma. 8:24
- And they took the money of them that came to buy them, and they pursued them on every side. 2 Ma. 8:25
- But when they had gathered together their arms and their spoils, they kept the sabbath: blessing the Lord who had delivered them that day, distilling the beginning of mercy upon them. 2 Ma. 8:27
- Moreover, they slew above twenty thousand of them that were with Timotheus and Bacchides, who fought against them, and they made themselves masters of the high strong holds: and they divided amongst them many spoils, giving equal portions to the feeble, the fatherless, and the widows; yea, and the aged also 2 Ma. 8:30
- And when they had carefully gathered together their arms, they laid them all up in convenient places, and the residue of their spoils they carried to Jerusalem: 2 Ma. 8:31
- Being, through the help of the Lord, brought down by them, of whom he had made no account, laying aside his garment of glory, fleeing through the midland country, he came alone to Antioch, being rendered very unhappy by the destruction of his army. 2 Ma. 8:35
- For he had entered into the city called Persepolis, and attempted to rob the temple, and to oppress the city, but the multitude running together to arms, put them to flight: and so it fell out that Antiochus being put to flight, returned with disgrace. 2 Ma. 9:2
- And swelling with anger, he thought to revenge upon the Jews the injury done by them that had put him to flight. And therefore he commanded his chariot to be driven, without stopping in his journey, the judgment of heaven urging him forward, because he had spoken so proudly, that he would come to Jerusalem, and make it a common burying place of the Jews. 2 Ma. 9:4
- And the Jews, whom he said he would not account worthy to be so much as buried, but would give them up to be devoured by the birds and wild beasts, and would utterly destroy them with their children, he now promiseth to make equal with the Athenians. 2 Ma. 9:15
- Therefore they now carried boughs and green branches and palms, for him that had given them good success in cleansing his place. 2 Ma. 10:7
- For Ptolemee, that was called Macer, was determined to be strictly just to the Jews and especially by reason of the wrong that had been done them, and to deal peaceably with them. 2 Ma. 10:12
- And assaulting them with great force, won the holds, killed them that came in the way, and slew altogether no fewer than twenty thousand. 2 Ma. 10:17
- Machabeus left Simon and Joseph, and Zacheus, and them that were with them, in sufficient number to besiege them, and departed to those expeditions which urged more. 2 Ma. 10:19
- Now they that were with Simon, being led with covetousness, were persuaded for the sake of money by some that were in the towers: and taking seventy thousand didrachmas, let some of them escape. 2 Ma. 10:20
- And lying prostrate at the foot of the altar, besought him to be merciful to them, and to be an enemy to their enemies, and an adversary to their adversaries, as the law saith. 2 Ma. 10:26
- Two of them took Machabeus between them, and covered him on every side with their arms, and kept him safe; but cast darts and fireballs against the enemy, so that they fell down, being both confounded with blindness, and filled with trouble. 2 Ma. 10:30
- But when the fifth day appeared, twenty young men of them that were with Machabeus, inflamed in their minds, because of the blasphemy, approached manfully to the wall, and pushing forward with fierce courage, got up upon it: 2 Ma. 10:35
- Moreover, others also getting up after them, went to set fire to the towers and the gates, and to burn the blasphemers alive. 2 Ma. 10:36
- And when this was done, they blessed the Lord with hymns and thanksgiving, who had done great things in Israel, and given them the victory. 2 Ma. 10:38
- And when they were going forth together with a willing mind, there appeared at Jerusalem a horseman going before them in white clothing, with golden armour, shaking a spear. 2 Ma. 11:8
- So they went on courageously, having a helper from heaven, and the Lord, who shewed mercy to them. 2 Ma. 11:10
- And rushing violently upon the enemy, like lions, they slew of them eleven thousand footmen, and one thousand six hundred horsemen: 2 Ma. 11:11
- And put all the rest to flight; and many of them being wounded, escaped naked: Yea, and Lysias himself fled away shamefully, and escaped. 2 Ma. 11:12
- And as he was a man of understanding, considering with himself the loss he had suffered, and perceiving that the Hebrews could not be overcome, because they relied upon the help of the Almighty God, he sent to them: 2 Ma. 11:13
- John, and Abesalom, who were sent from you, delivering your writings, requested that I would accomplish those things which were signified by them. 2 Ma. 11:17
- But as concerning other particulars, I have given orders by word both to these, and to them that are sent by me, to commune with you. 2 Ma. 11:20
- And we have heard that the Jews would not consent to my father to turn to the rites of the Greeks but that they would keep to their own manner of living and therefore that they request us to allow them to live after their own laws. 2 Ma. 11:24
- Wherefore being desirous that this nation also should be at rest, we have ordained and decreed, that the temple should be restored to them, and that they may live according to the custom of their ancestors. 2 Ma. 11:25
- Thou shalt do well, therefore, to send to them, and grant them peace, that our pleasure being known, they may be of good comfort, and look to their own affairs. 2 Ma. 11:26
- That the Jews may use their own kind of meats, and their own laws, as before: and that none of them any manner of ways be molested for things which have been done by ignorance. 2 Ma. 11:31
- The Romans also sent them a letter, to this effect: Quintus Memmius, and Titus Manilius, ambassadors of the Romans, to the people of the Jews, greeting. 2 Ma. 11:34
