Who knew very well that the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper in his hand. Gen. 39:3
Neither knew he any other thing, but the bread which he ate. And Joseph was of a beautiful countenance, and comely to behold. Gen. 39:6
With such words as these day by day, both the woman was importunate with the young man, and he refused the adultery. Gen. 39:10
Now it happened on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house, and was doing some business, without any man with him: Gen. 39:11
His master hearing these things, and giving too much credit to his wife's words, was very angry, Gen. 39:19
And cast Joseph into the prison, where the king's prisoners were kept, and he was there shut up. Gen. 39:20
But the Lord was with Joseph, and having mercy upon him gave him favour in the sight of the chief keeper of the prison: Gen. 39:21
Who delivered into his hand all the prisoners that were kept in custody: and whatsoever was done, was under him. Gen. 39:22
Neither did he himself know any thing, having committed all things to him: for the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper. Gen. 39:23
And Pharao being angry with them, (now the one was chief butler, the other chief baker,) Gen. 40:2
He sent them to the prison of the commander of the soldiers, in which Joseph also was prisoner. Gen. 40:3
And when Joseph was come into them in the morning, and saw them sad, Gen. 40:6
And the cup of Pharao was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into the cup which I held, and I gave the cup to Pharao. Gen. 40:11
After which Pharao will remember thy service, and will restore thee to thy former place: and thou shalt present him the cup according to thy office, as before thou was wont to do. Gen. 40:13
For I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here without any fault was cast into the dungeon. Gen. 40:15
And that in one basket which was uppermost, I carried all meats that are made by the art of baking, and that the birds ate out of it. Gen. 40:17
The third day after this was the birthday of Pharao: and he made a great feast for his servants, and at the banquet remembered the chief butler, and the chief baker. Gen. 40:20
And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it. Gen. 41:8
There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams, Gen. 41:12
And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet. Gen. 41:13
Forthwith at the king's command Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him: and changing his apparel brought him in to him. Gen. 41:14
And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt. Gen. 41:43
(Now he was thirty years old when he stood before king Pharao), and he went round all the countries of Egypt. Gen. 41:46
And the fruitfulness of the seven years came: and the corn being bound up into sheaves, was gathered together into the barns of Egypt. Gen. 41:47
And all the abundance of grain was laid up in every city. Gen. 41:48
And there was so great abundance of wheat, that it was equal to the sand of the sea, and the plenty exceeded measure. Gen. 41:49
The seven years of scarcity, which Joseph had foretold, began to come: and the famine prevailed in the whole world, but there was bread in all the land of Egypt. Gen. 41:54
¤ And Jacob hearing that food was sold in Egypt, said to his sons: Why are ye careless? Gen. 42:1
Whilst Benjamin was kept at home by Jacob, who said to his brethren: Lest perhaps he take any harm in the journey. Gen. 42:4
And they entered into the land of Egypt with others that went to buy. For the famine was in the land of Chanaan. Gen. 42:5
And Joseph was governor in the land of Egypt, and corn was sold by his direction to the people. And when his brethren had bowed down to him, Gen. 42:6
And though he knew his brethren, he was not known by them. Gen. 42:8
¤ In the mean time the famine was heavy upon all the land. Gen. 43:1
And take with you double money, and carry back what you found in your sacks, lest perhaps it was done by mistake. Gen. 43:12
He did as he was commanded, and brought the men into the house. Gen. 43:17
And he made haste, because his heart was moved upon his brother, and tears gushed out: and going into his chamber, he wept. Gen. 43:30
And when it was set on, for Joseph apart, and for his brethren apart, for the Egyptians also that ate with him apart, (for it is unlawful for the Egyptians to eat with the Hebrews, and they think such a feast profane): Gen. 43:32
And in the mouth of the younger's sack put my silver cup, and the price which he gave for the wheat. And it was so done. Gen. 44:2
And Juda at the head of his brethren went in to Joseph (for he was not yet gone out of the place) and they all together fell down before him on the ground. Gen. 44:14
And Juda said to him: What shall we answer my lord? or what shall we say, or be able justly to allege? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are all bondmen to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found. Gen. 44:16
And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead; and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly. Gen. 44:20
Not by your counsel was I sent hither, but by the will of God: who hath made me as it were a father to Pharao, and lord of his whole house, and governor in all the land of Egypt. Gen. 45:8
And it was heard, and the fame was spread abroad in the king's court: The brethren of Joseph are come; and Pharao with all his family was glad. Gen. 45:16
And when he was come thither, Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet his father in the same place: and seeing him, he fell upon his neck, and embracing him, wept. Gen. 46:29
For in the whole world there was want of bread, and a famine had oppressed the land, more especially of Egypt and Chanaan; Gen. 47:13
Except the land of the priests, which had been given them by the king: to whom also a certain allowance of food was given out of the public stores, and therefore they were not forced to sell their possessions. Gen. 47:22
From that time unto this day, in the whole land of Egypt, the fifth part is paid to the king, and it is become as a law, except the land of the priests, which was free from this covenant. Gen. 47:26
So Israel dwelt in Egypt, that is, in the land of Gessen, and possessed it; and grew, and was multiplied exceedingly. Gen. 47:27
And he said: Swear then to me. And as he was swearing, Israel adored God, turning to the bed's head. Gen. 47:31
¤ After these things, it was told Joseph that his father was sick; and he set out to go to him, taking his two sons Manasses and Ephraim. Gen. 48:1
And it was told the old man: Behold thy son Joseph cometh to thee. And being strengthened, he sat on his bed. Gen. 48:2
And when Joseph was come in to him, he said: God almighty appeared to me at Luza, which is in the land of Chanaan, and he blessed me, Gen. 48:3
For, when I came out of Mesopotamia, Rachel died from me in the land of Chanaan in the very journey, and it was spring time: and I was going to Ephrata, and I buried her near the way of Ephrata, which by another name is called Bethlehem. Gen. 48:7
But he, stretching forth his right hand, put it upon the head of Ephraim, the younger brother; and the left upon the head of Manasses, who was the elder, changing his hands. Gen. 48:14
And Joseph seeing that his father had put his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, was much displeased: and taking his father's hand, he tried to lift it from Ephraim's head, and to remove it to the head of Manasses. Gen. 48:17
Cursed be their fury, because it was stubborn: and their wrath, because it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and will scatter them in Israel. Gen. 49:7
He saw rest that it was good: and the land that it was excellent: and he bowed his shoulder to carry, and became a servant under tribute. Gen. 49:15
There they buried him, and Sara his wife: there was Isaac buried with Rebecca, his wife: there also Lia doth lie buried. Gen. 49:31
And when he had ended the commandments, wherewith he instructed his sons, he drew up his feet upon the bed, and died: and he was gathered to his people. Gen. 49:33
And while they were fulfilling his commands, there passed forty days: for this was the manner with bodies that were embalmed, and Egypt mourned for him seventy days. Gen. 50:3
He had also in his train chariots and horsemen: and it was a great company. Gen. 50:9
And when the inhabitants of Chanaan saw this, they said: This is a great mourning to the Egyptians. And therefore the name of that place was called, The mourning of Egypt. Gen. 50:11
And he died, being a hundred and ten years old. And being embalmed, he was laid in a coffin in Egypt. Gen. 50:26
And all the souls that came out of Jacob's thigh, were seventy: but Joseph was in Egypt. Ex. 1:5
After he was dead, and all his brethren, and all that generation, Ex. 1:6
And the king of Egypt spoke to the midwives of the Hebrews: of whom one was called Sephora, the other Phua, Ex. 1:15
And behold the daughter of Pharao came down to wash herself in the river: and her maids walked by the river's brink. And when she saw the basket in the sedges she sent one of her maids for it: and when it was brought, Ex. 2:5
And Pharao's daughter said to her: Take this child, and nurse him for me: I will give thee thy wages. The woman took and nursed the child: and when he was grown up, she delivered him to Pharao's daughter. Ex. 2:9
In those days, after Moses was grown up, he went out to his brethren: and saw their affliction, and an Egyptian striking one of the Hebrews, his brethren. Ex. 2:11
And the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire, and was not burnt. Ex. 3:2
And the Lord said: Cast it down upon the ground. He cast it down, and it was turned into a serpent, so that Moses fled from it. Ex. 4:3
And the Lord said: Put out thy hand, and take it by the tail. He put forth his hand, and took hold of it, and it was turned into a rod. Ex. 4:4
And he said: Put back thy hand into thy bosom. He put it back, and brought it out again, and it was like the other flesh. Ex. 4:7
And the Lord said to him as he was returning into Egypt: See that thou do all the wonders before Pharao, which I have put in thy hand: I shall harden his heart, and he will not let the people go. Ex. 4:21
And when he was in his journey, in the inn, the Lord met him, and would have killed him. Ex. 4:24
And the people was scattered through all the land of Egypt to gather straw. Ex. 5:12
And the overseers of the works pressed them, saying: Fulfil your work every day, as before ye were wont to do, when straw was given you. Ex. 5:13
And the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in evil case, because it was said to them: There shall not a whit be diminished of the bricks for every day. Ex. 5:19
And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three, when they spoke to Pharao. Ex. 7:7
So Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharao, and did as the Lord had commanded. And Aaron took the rod before Pharao and his servants, and it was turned into a serpent. Ex. 7:10
And Pharao's heart was hardened, and he did not hearken to them, as the Lord had commanded. Ex. 7:13
Go to him in the morning, behold he will go out to the waters: and thou shalt stand to meet him on the bank of the river: and thou shalt take in thy hand the rod that was turned into a serpent. Ex. 7:15
And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord had commanded: and lifting up the rod, he struck the water of the river before Pharao and his servants: and it was turned into blood. Ex. 7:20
And the fishes that were in the river died; and the river corrupted, and the Egyptians could not drink the water of the river, and there was blood in all the land of Egypt. Ex. 7:21
And the magicians of the Egyptians with their enchantments did in like manner; and Pharao's heart was hardened, neither did he hear them, as the Lord had commanded. Ex. 7:22
And they gathered them together into immense heaps, and the land was corrupted. Ex. 8:14
And Pharao seeing that rest was given, hardened his own heart, and did not hear them, as the Lord had commanded. Ex. 8:15
And they did so. And Aaron stretched forth his hand, holding the rod; and he struck the dust of the earth, and there came sciniphs on men and on beasts: all the dust of the earth was turned into sciniphs through all the land of Egypt. Ex. 8:17
And the magicians said to Pharao: This is the finger of God. And Pharao's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them, as the Lord had commanded. Ex. 8:19
And the Lord did so. And there came a very grievous swarm of flies into the houses of Pharao and of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt: and the land was corrupted by this kind of flies. Ex. 8:24
And he did according to his word: and he took away the flies from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people: there was not left so much as one. Ex. 8:31
And Pharao's heart was hardened, so that neither this time would he let the people go. Ex. 8:32
And Pharao sent to see; and there was not any thing dead of that which Israel possessed. And Pharao's heart was hardened, and he did not let the people go. Ex. 9:7
Behold I will cause it to rain to morrow at this same hour, an exceeding great hail; such as hath not been in Egypt from the day that it was founded, until this present time. Ex. 9:18
And the hail and fire mixed with it drove on together: and it was of so great bigness, as never before was seen in the whole land of Egypt since that nation was founded. Ex. 9:24
The flax therefore, and the barley were hurt, because the barley was green, and the flax was now bolled; Ex. 9:31
And when Moses was gone from Pharao out of the city, he stretched forth his hands to the Lord: and the thunders and the hail ceased, neither did there drop any more rain upon the earth. Ex. 9:33
And his heart was hardened, and the heart of his servants, and it was made exceeding hard: neither did he let the children of Israel go, as the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses. Ex. 9:35
And Moses stretched forth his rod upon the land of Egypt: and the Lord brought a burning wind all that day, and night; and when it was morning, the burning wind raised the locusts. Ex. 10:13
And they covered the whole face of the earth, wasting all things. And the grass of the earth was devoured, and what fruits soever were on the trees, which the hail had left; and there remained not any thing that was green on the trees, or in the herbs of the earth, in all Egypt. Ex. 10:15
No man saw his brother, nor moved himself out of the place where he was: but wheresoever the children of Israel dwelt, there was light. Ex. 10:23
And the Lord will give favour to his people in the sight of the Egyptians. And Moses was a very great man in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharao's servants, and of all the people. Ex. 11:3
And it came to pass at midnight, the Lord slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharao, who sat on his throne, unto the firstborn of the captive woman that was in the prison, and all the firstborn of cattle. Ex. 12:29
And Pharao arose in the night, and all his servants, and all Egypt: and there arose a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house wherein there lay not one dead. Ex. 12:30
The people therefore took dough before it was leavened; and tying it in their cloaks, put it on their shoulders. Ex. 12:34
And the abode of the children of Israel that they made in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. Ex. 12:40
For when Pharao was hardened, and would not let us go, the Lord slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of man to the firstborn of beasts: therefore I sacrifice to the Lord all that openeth the womb of the male sex, and all the firstborn of my sons I redeem. Ex. 13:15
And it was told the king of the Egyptians that the people was fled: and the heart of Pharao and of his servants was changed with regard to the people, and they said: What meant we to do, that we let Israel go from serving us? Ex. 14:5
Is not this the word that we spoke to thee in Egypt, saying: Depart from us, that we may serve the Egyptians? for it was much better to serve them, than to die in the wilderness. Ex. 14:12
Stood behind, between the Egyptians' camp and the camp of Israel: and it was a dark cloud, and enlightening the night, so that they could not come at one another all the night. Ex. 14:20
And when Moses had stretched forth his hand over the sea, the Lord took it away by a strong and burning wind blowing all the night, and turned it into dry ground: and the water was divided. Ex. 14:21
And the children of Israel went in through the midst of the sea dried up; for the water was as a wall on their right hand and on their left. Ex. 14:22
And now the morning watch was come, and behold the Lord looking upon the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, slew their host. Ex. 14:24
And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another: Manhu! which signifieth: What is this! for they knew not what it was. And Moses said to them: This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat. Ex. 16:15
And they hearkened not to him, but some of them left until the morning, and it began to be full of worms, and it putrified, and Moses was angry with them. Ex. 16:20
And they did so as Moses had commanded, and it did not putrify, neither was there worm found in it. Ex. 16:24
And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like coriander seed, white, and the taste thereof like to flour with honey. Ex. 16:31
¤ Then all the multitude of the children of Israel setting forward from the desert of Sin, by their mansions, according to the word of the Lord, encamped in Raphidim, where there was no water for the people to drink. Ex. 17:1
And her two sons, of whom one was called Gersam: his father saying, I have been a stranger in a foreign country. Ex. 18:3
And Jethro, the kinsman of Moses, came with his sons, and his wife to Moses into the desert, where he was camped by the mountain of God. Ex. 18:5
And he went out to meet his kinsman, and worshipped and kissed him: and they saluted one another with words of peace. And when he was come into the tent, Ex. 18:7
And they judged the people at all times: and whatsoever was of greater difficulty they referred to him, and they judged the easier cases only. Ex. 18:26
And now the third day was come, and the morning appeared: and behold thunders began to be heard, and lightning to flash, and a very thick cloud to cover the mount, and the noise of the trumpet sounded exceeding loud; and the people that was in the camp, feared. Ex. 19:16
And all Mount Sinai was on a smoke: because the Lord was come down upon it in fire, and the smoke arose from it as out of a furnace: and all the mount was terrible. Ex. 19:18
And the sound of the trumpet grew by degrees louder and louder, and was drawn out to a greater length: Moses spoke, and God answered him. Ex. 19:19
And the Lord came down upon Mount Sinai, in the very top of the mount, and he called Moses unto the top thereof. And when he was gone up thither, Ex. 19:20
And the people stood afar off. But Moses went to the dark cloud wherein God was. Ex. 20:21
If she displease the eyes of her master to whom she was delivered, he shall let her go: but he shall have no power to sell her to a foreign nation, if he despise her. Ex. 21:8
But if the ox was wont to push with his horn yesterday, and the day before, and they warned his master, and he did not shut him up, and he shall kill a man or a woman: then the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death. Ex. 21:29
But if he knew that his ox was wont to push yesterday, and the day before, and his master did not keep him in; he shall pay ox for ox, and shall take the whole carcass. Ex. 21:36
If it were eaten by a beast, let him bring to him that which was slain, and he shall not make restitution. Ex. 22:13
And when Moses was gone up, a cloud covered the mount. Ex. 24:15
And the sight of the glory of the Lord, was like a burning fire upon the top of the mount, in the eyes of the children of Israel. Ex. 24:17
And Moses entering into the midst of the cloud, went up into the mountain: And he was there forty days and forty nights. Ex. 24:18
Look, and make it according to the pattern that was shewn thee in the mount. Ex. 25:40
And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the pattern that was shewn thee in the mount. Ex. 26:30
Thou shalt not make it solid, but empty and hollow in the inside, as it was shewn thee in the mount. Ex. 27:8
Thou shalt take also the breast of the ram, wherewith Aaron was consecrated, and elevating it thou shalt sanctify it before the Lord, and it shall fall to thy share. Ex. 29:26
Wherewith Aaron was consecrated and his sons, and they shall fall to Aaron's share, and his sons', by a perpetual right from the children of Israel: because they are the choicest and the beginnings of their peace victims which they offer to the Lord. Ex. 29:28
And Aaron shall pray upon the horns thereof once a year, with the blood of that which was offered for sin; and shall make atonement upon it in your generations. It shall be most holy to the Lord. Ex. 30:10
And the money received, which was contributed by the children of Israel, thou shalt deliver unto the uses of the tabernacle of the testimony, that it may be a memorial of them before the Lord, and he may be merciful to their souls. Ex. 30:16
And the Lord was appeased from doing the evil which he had spoken against his people. Ex. 32:14
And made by the work of God; the writing also of God was graven in the tables. Ex. 32:16
And when the next day was come, Moses spoke to the people: You have sinned a very great sin: I will go up to the Lord, if by any means I may be able to entreat him for your crime. Ex. 32:30
And when he was gone into the tabernacle of the covenant, the pillar of the cloud came down, and stood at the door, and he spoke with Moses. Ex. 33:9
And when the Lord was come down in a cloud, Moses stood with him, calling upon the name of the Lord. Ex. 34:5
And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights: he neither ate bread nor drank water, and he wrote upon the tables the ten words of the covenant. Ex. 34:28
And when Moses came down from the Mount Sinai, he held the two tables of the testimony, and he knew not that his face was horned from the conversation of the Lord. Ex. 34:29
And they saw that the face of Moses when he came out was horned, but he covered his face again, if at any time he spoke to them. Ex. 34:35
Offered firstfruits to the Lord with a most ready and devout mind, to make the work of the tabernacle of the testimony. Whatever was necessary to the service and to the holy vestments, Ex. 35:21
Both men and women gave bracelets and earrings, rings and tablets: every vessel of gold was set aside to be offered to the Lord. Ex. 35:22
The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth four: all the curtains were of the same size. Ex. 36:9
One curtain was thirty cubits long, and four cubits broad: all the curtains were of one measure. Ex. 36:15
The length of one board was ten cubits; and the breadth was one cubit and a half. Ex. 36:21
¤ And Beseleel made also, the ark of setim wood: it was two cubits and a half in length, and a cubit and a half in breadth, and the height was of one cubit and a half: and he overlaid it with the purest gold within and without. Ex. 37:1
He made also the table of setim wood, in length two cubits, and in breadth one cubit, and in height it was a cubit and a half. Ex. 37:10
Three cups in manner of a nut on each branch, and bowls withal and lilies: and three cups of the fashion of a nut in another branch, and bowls withal and lilies. The work of the six branches, that went out from the shaft of the candlestick was equal. Ex. 37:19
And he drew them through the rings that stood out in the sides of the altar. And the altar itself was not solid, but hollow, of boards, and empty within. Ex. 38:7
And he made in the entry thereof an embroidered hanging of violet, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen, that was twenty cubits long, and five cubits high, according to the measure of all the hangings of the court. Ex. 38:18
Having for his companion Ooliab, the son of Achisamech, of the tribe of Dan: who also was an excellent artificer in wood, and worker in tapestry and embroidery in violet, purple, scarlet, and fine linen. Ex. 38:23
All the gold that was spent in the work of the sanctuary, and that was offered in gifts, was nine and twenty talents, and seven hundred and thirty sicles according to the standard of the sanctuary. Ex. 38:24
And it was offered by them that went to be numbered, from twenty years old and upwards, of six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty men able to bear arms. Ex. 38:25
And he set four rows of precious stones in it. In the first row was a sardius, a topaz, an emerald. Ex. 39:10
So all the work of the tabernacle and of the roof of the testimony was finished: and the children of Israel did all things which the Lord had commanded Moses. Ex. 39:31
The hanging in the entry of the court, and the little cords, and the pins thereof. Nothing was wanting of the vessels, that were commanded to be made for the ministry of the tabernacle, and for the roof of the covenant. Ex. 39:40
So in the first month of the second year, the first day of the month, the tabernacle was set up. Ex. 40:17

The fat of a carcass that hath died of itself, and of a beast that was caught by another beast, you shall have for divers uses. Lev. 7:24
And binding it with the girdle, he fitted it to the rational, on which was Doctrine and Truth. Lev. 8:8
But the fat that was upon the entrails, and the caul of the liver, and the two little kidneys, with their fat, he burnt upon the altar. Lev. 8:16
Having first washed the entrails, and the feet, and the whole ram together he burnt upon the altar: because it was a holocaust of most sweet odour to the Lord, as he had commanded him. Lev. 8:21
He offered also the sons of Aaron: and when with the blood of the ram that was immolated, he had touched the tip of the right ear of every one of them, and the thumbs of their right hands, and the great toes of their right feet, the rest he poured on the altar round about. Lev. 8:24
And taking out of the basket of unleavened bread, which was before the Lord, a loaf without leaven, and a cake tempered with oil and a wafer, he put them upon the fat, and the right shoulder: Lev. 8:26
He took them again from their hands, and burnt them upon the altar of holocaust: because it was the oblation of consecration, for a sweet odour of sacrifice to the Lord. Lev. 8:28
And taking the ointment, and the blood that was upon the altar, he sprinkled Aaron, and his vestments, and his sons, and their vestments with it. Lev. 8:30
¤ And when the eighth day was come, Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the ancients of Israel, and said to Aaron: Lev. 9:1
They put upon the breasts. And after the fat was burnt upon the altar, Lev. 9:20
And, behold, a fire, coming forth from the Lord, devoured the holocaust, and the fat that was upon the altar: which when the multitude saw, they praised the Lord, falling on their faces. Lev. 9:24
¤ And Nadab and Abiu, the sons of Aaron, taking their censers, put fire therein, and incense on it, offering before the Lord strange fire: which was not commanded them. Lev. 10:1
Especially, whereas none of the blood thereof hath been carried within the holy places: and you ought to have eaten it in the sanctuary, as was commanded me? Lev. 10:18
Which when Moses had heard he was satisfied. Lev. 10:20
But, if the leprosy grow again, after he was seen by the priest and restored to cleanness, he shall be brought to him: Lev. 13:7

The Lord saw, and was moved to wrath: because his own sons and daughters provoked him. Dt. 32:19
They have provoked me with that which was no god, and have angered me with their vanities: and I will provoke them with that which is no people, and will vex them with a foolish nation. Dt. 32:21
How should one pursue after a thousand, and two chase ten thousand? Was it not, because their God had sold them, and the Lord had shut them up? Dt. 32:30
When thou art gone up into it thou shalt be gathered to thy people, as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered to his people: Dt. 32:50
And he saw his pre-eminence, that in his portion the teacher was laid up: who was with the princes of the people, and did the justices of the Lord, and his judgment with Israel. Dt. 33:21
Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, neither were his teeth moved. Dt. 34:7
And Josue the son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom, because Moses had laid his hands upon him. And the children of Israel obeyed him, and did as the Lord commanded Moses. Dt. 34:9
As we obeyed Moses in all things, so will we obey thee also: only be the Lord thy God with thee, as he was with Moses. Josu. 1:17
¤ And Josue, the son of Nun, sent from Setim two men, to spy secretly: and said to them: Go, and view the land, and the city of Jericho. They went, and entered into the house of a woman that was a harlot, named Rahab, and lodged with her. Josu. 2:1
And it was told the king of Jericho, and was said: Behold there are men come in hither, by night, of the children of Israel, to spy the land. Josu. 2:2
But she made the men go up to the top of her house, and covered them with the stalks of flax, which was there. Josu. 2:6
Now they that were sent, pursued after them, by the way that leadeth to the fords of the Jordan: and as soon as they were gone out, the gate was presently shut. Josu. 2:7
And the Lord said to Josue: This day will I begin to exalt thee before Israel: that they may know that as I was with Moses, so I am with thee also. Josu. 3:7
And the people marched over against Jericho: and the priests that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, stood girded upon the dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, and all the people passed over, through the channel that was dried up. Josu. 3:17
And the Lord said to Josue: This day have I taken away from you the reproach of Egypt. And the name of that place was called Galgal, until this present day. Josu. 5:9
And when Josue was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and saw a man standing over against him, holding a drawn sword, and he went to him, and said: Art thou one of ours, or of our adversaries? Josu. 5:13
Loose, saith he, thy shoes from off thy feet: for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Josue did as was commanded him. Josu. 5:15
¤ Now Jericho was close shut up and fenced, for fear of the children of Israel, and no man durst go out or come in. Josu. 6:1
And all the armed men went before, the rest of the common people followed the ark, and the sound of the trumpets was heard on all sides. Josu. 6:9
But the seventh day, rising up early, they went about the city, as it was ordered, seven times. Josu. 6:15
So all the people making a shout, and the trumpets sounding, when the voice and the sound thundered in the ears of the multitude, the walls forthwith fell down: and every man went up by the place that was over against him: and they took the city, Josu. 6:20
And the Lord was with Josue, and his name was noised throughout all the land Josu. 6:27
¤ But the children of Israel transgressed the commandment, and took to their own use of that which was accursed. For Achan, the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare, of the tribe of Juda, took something of the anathema: and the Lord was angry against the children of Israel. Josu. 7:1
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
Josue, therefore, when he rose in the morning, made Israel to come by their tribes, and the tribe of Juda was found. Josu. 7:16
Which being brought by in families, it was found to be the family of Zare. Bringing that also by the houses, he found it to be Zabdi: Josu. 7:17
And they gathered together upon him a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day And the wrath of the Lord was turned away from them. And the name of that place was called the Valley of Achor, until this day. Josu. 7:26
And when they were come, and were gone up over against the city, they stood on the north side of the city, between which and them there was a valley in the midst. Josu. 8:11
So Josue, and all Israel, seeing that the city was taken, and that the smoke of the city rose up, returned, and slew the men of Hai. Josu. 8:21
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 the number of them that fell that day, both of men and women, was twelve thousand persons, all of the city of Hai. Josu. 8:25
And all the people, and the ancients, and the princes, and judges, stood on both sides of the ark, before the priests that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, both the stranger and he that was born among them, half of them by Mount Garizim, and half by Mount Hebal, as Moses the servant of the Lord, had commanded. And first he blessed the people of Israel. Josu. 8:33
And to the two kings of the Amorrhites, that were beyond the Jordan, Sehon, king of Hesebon, and Og, king of Basan, that was in Astaroth: Josu. 9:10
Now three days after the league was made, they heard that they dwelt nigh, and they should be among them. Josu. 9:16
They answered: It was told us, thy servants, that the Lord thy God had promised his servant Moses, to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants thereof. Therefore we feared exceedingly and provided for our lives, compelled by the dread we had of you, and we took this counsel. Josu. 9:24
He was exceedingly afraid. For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the royal cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all its fighting men were most valiant. Josu. 10:2
But the inhabitants of the city of Gabaon, which was besieged, sent to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him: Withdraw not thy hands from helping thy servants: come up quickly, and save us, and bring us succour: for all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwell in the mountains, are gathered together against us. Josu. 10:6
There was not before, nor after, so long a day, the Lord obeying the voice of a man, and fighting for Israel. Josu. 10:14
And it was told Josue, that the five kings were found hid in a cave of the city of Maceda. Josu. 10:17
And all the army returned to Josue, in Maceda, where the camp then was, in good health, and without the loss of any one: and no man durst move his tongue against the children of Israel. Josu. 10:21
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 delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel, and he took it the following day, and put it to the sword, and every soul that was in it, as he had done to Lebna. Josu. 10:32
And presently turning back he took Asor: and slew the king thereof with the sword. Now Asor of old was the head of all these kingdoms. Josu. 11:10
Except the cities that were on hills and high places, the rest Israel burned: only Asor that was very strong he consumed with fire. Josu. 11:13
There was not a city that delivered itself to the children of Israel, except the Hevite, who dwelt in Gabaon: for he took all by fight. Josu. 11:19
For it was the sentence of the Lord, that their hearts should be hardened, and they should fight against Israel, and fall, and should not deserve any clemency, and should be destroyed as the Lord had commanded Moses. Josu. 11:20
As well in the mountains as in the plains and the champaign countries. In Asedoth, and in the wilderness, and in the south was the Hethite and the Amorrhite, the Chanaanite and the Pherezite, the Hevite and the Jebusite. Josu. 12:8
¤ Josue was old, and far advanced in years, and the Lord said to him: Thou art grown old, and advanced in age, and there is a very large country left, which is not yet divided by lot: Josu. 13:1
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
And their border was from Aroer, which is on the bank of the torrent Arnon, and in the midst of the valley of the same torrent: all the plain, that leadeth to Medaba, Josu. 13:16
And the river Jordan was the border of the children of Ruben. This is the possession of the Rubenites, by their kindreds, of cities and villages. Josu. 13:23
I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Cadesbarne, to view the land, and I brought him word again as to me seemed true, Josu. 14:7
As strong as I was at that time when I was sent to view the land: the strength of that time continueth in me until this day, as well to fight as to march. Josu. 14:11
The name of Hebron before was called Cariath-Arbe: Adam the greatest among the Enacims was laid there and the land rested from wars. Josu. 14:15
¤ Now the lot of the children of Juda by their kindreds was this: From the frontier of Edom, to the desert of Sin southward, and to the uttermost part of the south coast. Josu. 15:1
Its beginning was from the top of the most salt sea, and from the bay thereof, that looketh to the south. Josu. 15:2
And going up from thence he came to the inhabitants of Dabir, which before was called Cariath-Sepher, that is to say, the city of letters. Josu. 15:15
And as they were going together, she was moved by her husband to ask a field of her father, and she sighed as she sat on her ass. And Caleb said to her: What aileth thee? Josu. 15:18
And the border of the children of Ephraim was according to their kindreds: and their possession towards the east was Ataroth-addar unto Beth-horon the upper. Josu. 16:5
¤ And this lot fell to the tribe of Manasses for he is the firstborn of Joseph to Machir the firstborn of Manasses the father of Galaad, who was a warlike man, and had for possession Galaad and Basan. Josu. 17:1
And the border of Manasses was from Aser, Machmethath which looketh towards Sichem: and it goeth out on the right hand by the inhabitants of the fountain of Taphua. Josu. 17:7
And the inheritance of Manasses in Issachar and in Aser, was Bethsan and its villages, and Jeblaam with its villages, and the inhabitants of Dor, with the towns thereof: the inhabitants also of Endor with the villages thereof: and in like manner the inhabitants of Thenac with the villages thereof: and the inhabitants of Mageddo with their villages, and the third part of the city of Nopheth. Josu. 17:11
¤ And all the children of Israel assembled together in Silo, and there they set up the tabernacle of the testimony, and the land was subdued before them. Josu. 18:1
And their border northward was from the Jordan: going along by the side of Jericho on the north side, and thence going up westward to the mountains, and reaching to the wilderness of Bethaven, Josu. 18:12
¤ And the second lot came forth for the children of Simeon by their kindreds: and their inheritance was Josu. 19:1
In the possession and lot of the children of Juda: because it was too great, and therefore the children of Simeon had their possession in the midst of their inheritance. Josu. 19:9
And the third lot fell to the children of Zabulon by their kindreds: and the border of their possession was unto Sarid. Josu. 19:10
And his inheritance was Jezrael and Casaloth and Sunem, Josu. 19:18
And their border was Halcath and Chali and Beten and Axaph, Josu. 19:25
And the border of their possession was Saraa and Esthaol, and Hirsemes, that is, the city of the sun, Josu. 19:41
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
And to the rest of the families of the children of Caath of the race of Levi was given this possession. Josu. 21:20
Not so much as one word, which he had promised to perform unto them, was made void, but all came to pass. Josu. 21:45
Did not Achan the son of Zare transgress the commandment of the Lord, and his wrath lay upon all the people of Israel? And he was but one man, and would to God he alone had perished in his wickedness. Josu. 22:20
¤ And when a long time was passed, after that the Lord had given peace to Israel, all the nations round about being subdued, and Josue being now old, and far advanced in years: Josu. 23:1
And he wrote all these things in the volume of the law of the Lord: and he took a great stone, and set it under the oak that was in the sanctuary of the Lord. Josu. 24:26
And the bones of Joseph which the children of Israel had taken out of Egypt, they buried in Sichem, in that part of the field which Jacob had bought of the sons of Hemor the father of Sichem, for a hundred young ewes, and it was in the possession of the sons of Joseph. Josu. 24:32
Eleazar also the son of Aaron died: and they buried him in Gabaath that belongeth to Phinees his son, which was given him in mount Ephraim. Josu. 24:33
And Juda going forward against the Chanaanite, that dwelt in Hebron, (the name whereof was in former times Cariath-Arbe) slew Sesai, and Ahiman, and Tholmai: Judg. 1:10
And departing from thence, he went to the inhabitants of Dabir, the ancient name of which was Cariath-Sepher, that is, the city of letters. Judg. 1:11
And as she was going on her way, her husband admonished her to ask a field of her father. And as she sighed sitting on her ass, Caleb said to her: What aileth thee? Judg. 1:14
And Juda went with Simeon, his brother, and they together defeated the Chanaanites that dwelt in Sephaath, and slew them. And the name of the city was called Horma, that is, Anathema. Judg. 1:17
And the Lord was with Juda, and he possessed the hill country: but was not able to destroy the inhabitants of the valley, because they had many chariots armed with scythes. Judg. 1:19
The house of Joseph also went up against Bethel, and the Lord was with them. Judg. 1:22
For when they were besieging the city, which before was called Luza, Judg. 1:23
But after Israel was grown strong, he made them tributaries, and would not destroy them. Judg. 1:28
And he dwelt in the mountain Hares, that is, of potsherds, in Aialon and Salebim. And the hand of the house of Joseph was heavy upon him, and he became tributary to him. Judg. 1:35
And the border of the Amorrhite was from the ascent of the scorpion, the rock, and the higher places. Judg. 1:36
And the name of that place was called, The place of weepers, or of tears: and there they offered sacrifices to the Lord. Judg. 2:5
And all that generation was gathered to their fathers: and there arose others that knew not the Lord and the works which he had done for Israel. Judg. 2:10
But whithersoever they meant to go, the hand of the Lord was upon them, as he had said, and as he had sworn to them: and they were greatly distressed. Judg. 2:15
And when the Lord raised them up judges, in their days, he was moved to mercy, and heard the groanings of the afflicted, and delivered them from the slaughter of the oppressors. Judg. 2:18
But after the judge was dead, they returned, and did much worse things than their fathers had done, following strange gods, serving them, and adoring them. They left not their own inventions, and the stubborn way, by which they were accustomed to walk. Judg. 2:19
And the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he said: Behold this nation hath made void my covenant, which I had made with their fathers, and hath despised to hearken to my voice: Judg. 2:20
And the spirit of the Lord was in him, and he judged Israel. And he went out to fight, and the Lord delivered into his hands Chusan Rasathaim, king of Syria, and he overthrew him: Judg. 3:10
And he made himself a two-edged sword, with a haft in the midst of the length of the palm of the hand, and was girded therewith, under his garment, on the right thigh. Judg. 3:16
And he presented the gifts to Eglon, king of Moab Now Eglon was exceeding fat. Judg. 3:17
Aod went in to him: now he was sitting in a summer parlour alone, and he said: I have a word from God to thee. And he forthwith rose up from his throne. Judg. 3:20
With such force that the haft went in after the blade into the wound, and was closed up with the abundance of fat. So that he did not draw out the dagger, but left it in the body as he had struck it in: and forthwith, by the secret parts of nature, the excrements of the belly came out. Judg. 3:22
And Moab was humbled that day under the hand of Israel: and the land rested eighty years. Judg. 3:30
After him was Samgar, the son of Anath, who slew of the Philistines six hundred men with a ploughshare: and he also defended Israel. Judg. 3:31
And there was at that time Debbora, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, who judged the people. Judg. 4:4
And she sat under a palm tree, which was called by her name, between Rama and Bethel, in Mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for all judgment. Judg. 4:5
Now Haber, the Cinite, had some time before departed from the rest of the Cinites, his brethren, the sons of Hobab, the kinsman of Moses: and had pitched his tents unto the valley, which is called Sennim, and was near Cedes. Judg. 4:11
And it was told Sisara, that Barac, the son of Abinoem, was gone up to Mount Thabor: Judg. 4:12
And Barac pursued after the fleeing chariots, and the army, unto Haroseth of the Gentiles; and all the multitude of the enemies was utterly destroyed. Judg. 4:16
But Sisara fleeing, came to the tent of Jahel, the wife of Haber, the Cinite, for there was peace between Jabin, the king of Asor, and the house of Haber, the Cinite. Judg. 4:17
The Lord chose new wars, and he himself overthrew the gates of the enemies: a shield and spear was not seen among forty thousand of Israel. Judg. 5:8
Where the chariots were dashed together, and the army of the enemies was choked, there let the justices of the Lord be rehearsed, and his clemency towards the brave men of Israel: then the people of the Lord went down to the gates, and obtained the sovereignty. Judg. 5:11
The captains of Issachar were with Debbora, and followed the steps of Barac, who exposed himself to danger, as one going headlong, and into a pit. Ruben being divided against himself, there was found a strife of courageous men. Judg. 5:15
Why dwellest thou between two borders, that thou mayst hear the bleatings of the flocks? Ruben being divided against himself, there was found a strife of courageous men. Judg. 5:16
There was war made against them from heaven: the stars, remaining in their order and courses, fought against Sisara. Judg. 5:20
One that was wiser than the rest of his wives, returned this answer to her mother in law: Judg. 5:29
And Israel was humbled exceedingly in the sight of Madian. Judg. 6:6
And an angel of the Lord came, and sat under an oak that was in Ephra, and belonged to Joas, the father of the family of Ezri. And when Gedeon, his son, was threshing and cleansing wheat by the winepress, to flee from Madian, Judg. 6:11
And Gedeon seeing that it was the angel of the Lord, said: Alas, my Lord God: for I have seen the angel of the Lord face to face. Judg. 6:22
And Gedeon built there an altar to the Lord, and called it the Lord's peace, until this present day. And when he was yet in Ephra, which is of the family of Ezri, Judg. 6:24
And when the men of that town were risen in the morning, they saw the altar of Baal destroyed, and the grove cut down, and the second bullock laid upon the altar, which then was built. Judg. 6:28
And they said one to another: Who hath done this? And when they inquired for the author of the fact, it was said: Gedeon, the son of Joas, did all this. Judg. 6:29
From that day Gedeon was called Jerobaal, because Joas had said: Let Baal revenge himself on him that hath cast down his altar. Judg. 6:32
And it was so. And rising before day, wringing the fleece, he filled a vessel with the dew. Judg. 6:38
And God did that night as he had requested: and it was dry on the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground. Judg. 6:40
¤ Then Jerobaal, who is the same as Gedeon, rising up early, and all the people with him, came to the fountain that is called Harad. Now the camp of Madian was in the valley, on the north side of the high hill. Judg. 7:1
And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people that are with thee are many, and Madian shall not be delivered into their hands: lest Israel should glory against me, and say: I was delivered by my own strength. Judg. 7:2
And the number of them that had lapped water; casting it with the hand to their mouth, was three hundred men: and all the rest of the multitude had drunk kneeling. Judg. 7:6
So taking victuals and trumpets according to their number, he ordered all the rest of the multitude to depart to their tents: and he with the three hundred gave himself to the battle. Now the camp of Madia was beneath him in the valley. Judg. 7:8
And when thou shalt hear what they are saying, then shall thy hands be strengthened, and thou shalt go down more secure to the enemies' camp. And he went down with Phara his servant, into part of the camp, where was the watch of men in arms. Judg. 7:11
And when Gedeon was come, one told his neighbour a dream: and in this manner related what he had seen: I dreamt a dream, and it seemed to me as if a hearth cake of barley bread rolled and came down into the camp of Madian: and when it was come to a tent, it struck it, and beat it down flat to the ground. Judg. 7:13
Standing every man in his place round about the enemies' camp. So all the camp was troubled, and crying out and howling, they fled away: Judg. 7:21
The Lord hath delivered into your hands the princes of Madian, Oreb and Zeb: what could I have done like to what you have done? And when he had said this, their spirit was appeased, with which they swelled against him. Judg. 8:3
And when Gedeon was come to the Jordan, he passed over it with the three hundred men that were with him: who were so weary that they could not pursue after them that fled. Judg. 8:4
And he said to Jether, his eldest son: Arise, and slay them. But he drew not his sword: for he was afraid, being but yet a boy. Judg. 8:20
And the weight of the earlets that he requested, was a thousand seven hundred sicles of gold, besides the ornaments, and jewels, and purple raiment, which the kings of Madian were wont to use, and besides the golden chains that were about the camels' necks. Judg. 8:26
But Madian was humbled before the children of Israel, neither could they any more lift up their heads: but the land rested for forty years, while Gedeon presided. Judg. 8:28
And his concubine, that he had in Sichem, bore him a son, whose name was Abimelech. Judg. 8:31
And Gedeon, the son of Joas died in a good old age, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father, in Ephra, of the family of Ezri. Judg. 8:32
But after Gedeon was dead, the children of Israel turned again, and committed fornication with Baalim. And they made a covenant with Baal, that he should be their god: Judg. 8:33
And he came to his father's house in Ephra, and slew his brethren, the sons of Jerobaal, seventy men, upon one stone: and there remained only Joatham, the youngest son of Jerobaal, who was hidden. Judg. 9:5
And they set an ambush against him on the top of the mountains: and while they waited for his coming, they committed robberies, taking spoils of all that passed by: and it was told Abimelech. Judg. 9:25
Would to God that some man would put this people under my hand, that I might remove Abimelech out of the way. And it was said to Abimelech: Gather together the multitude of an army, and come. Judg. 9:29
For Zebul, the ruler of the city, hearing the words of Gaal, the son of Obed, was very angry, Judg. 9:30
So the day following the people went out into the field. And it was told to Abimelech, Judg. 9:42
And when they who dwelt in the tower of Sichem, had heard this, they went into the temple of their god Berith, where they had made a covenant with him, and from thence the place had taken its name, and it was exceeding strong. Judg. 9:46
And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves. Judg. 9:51
And he called hastily to his armourbearer, and said to him: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest it should be said that I was slain by a woman. He did as he was commanded, and slew him. Judg. 9:54
And when he was dead all the men of Israel that were with him, returned to their homes. Judg. 9:55
And he judged Israel three and twenty years, and he died, and was buried in Samir. Judg. 10:2
And Jair died, and was buried in the place which is called Camon. Judg. 10:5
Insomuch that the children of Ammon, passing over the Jordan, wasted Juda, and Benjamin, and Ephraim: and Israel was distressed exceedingly. Judg. 10:9
And saying these things, they cast away out of their coasts all the idols of strange gods, and served the Lord their God: and he was touched with their miseries. Judg. 10:16
¤ There was at that time Jephte, the Galaadite, a most valiant man, and a warrior, the son of a woman that was a harlot, and his father was Galaad. Judg. 11:1
And he answered her: Go. And he sent her away for two months. And when she was gone with her comrades and companions, she mourned her virginity in the mountains. Judg. 11:38
And the Galaadites secured the fords of the Jordan, by which Ephraim was to return. And when any one of the number of Ephraim came thither in the flight, and said: I beseech you let me pass: the Galaadites said to him: Art thou not an Ephraimite? If he said: I am not: Judg. 12:5
And Jephte, the Galaadite, judged Israel six years: and he died, and was buried in his city of Galaad. Judg. 12:7
And he died, and was buried in Bethlehem. Judg. 12:10
And he died, and was buried in Zabulon. Judg. 12:12
And he died, and was buried in Pharathon, in the land of Ephraim, in the mount of Amalech. Judg. 12:15
Now there was a certain man of Saraa, and of the race of Dan, whose name was Manue, and his wife was barren. Judg. 13:2
And when she was come to her husband, she said to him: A man of God came to me, having the countenance of an angel, very awful. And when I asked him whence he came, and by what name he was called, he would not tell me: Judg. 13:6
And the Lord heard the prayer of Manue, and the angel of the Lord appeared again to his wife, as she was sitting in the field. But Manue her husband was not with her. And when she saw the angel, Judg. 13:9
And the angel answered him: If thou press me I will not eat of thy bread: but if thou wilt offer a holocaust, offer it to the Lord. And Manue knew not it was the angel of the Lord. Judg. 13:16
And the angel of the Lord appeared to them no more. And forthwith Manue understood that it was an angel of the Lord, Judg. 13:21
Now his parents knew not that the thing was done by the Lord, and that he sought an occasion against the Philistines: for at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel. Judg. 14:4
And after some days, returning to take her, he went aside to see the carcass of the lion, and behold there was a swarm of bees in the mouth of the lion, and a honey-comb. Judg. 14:8
So she wept before him the seven days of the feast: and, at length, on the seventh day, as she was troublesome to him, he expounded it. And she immediately told her countrymen. Judg. 14:17
And setting them on fire he let the foxes go, that they might run about hither and thither. And they presently went into the standing corn of the Philistines. Which being set on fire, both the corn that was already carried together, and that which was yet standing, was all burnt, insomuch that the flame consumed also the vineyards and the oliveyards. Judg. 15:5
Then the Philistines said: Who hath done this thing? And it was answered: Samson, the son in law of the Thamnathite, because he took away his wife, and gave her to another, hath done these things. And the Philistines went up and burnt both the woman and her father. Judg. 15:6
Then the Philistines going up into the land of Juda, camped in the place which afterwards was called Lechi, that is, the Jawbone, where their army was spread abroad. Judg. 15:9
Now when he was come to the place of the Jawbone, and the Philistines shouting went to meet him, the Spirit of the Lord came strongly upon him: and as flax is wont to be consumed at the approach of fire, so the bands with which he was bound were broken and loosed. Judg. 15:14
Then the Lord opened a great tooth in the jaw of the ass and waters issued out of it. And when he had drunk them, he refreshed his spirit, and recovered his strength. Therefore the name of that place was called The Spring of him that invoked from the jawbone, until this present day. Judg. 15:19
And when the Philistines had heard this, and it was noised about among them, that Samson was come into the city, they surrounded him, setting guards at the gate of the city, and watching there all the night in silence, that in the morning they might kill him as he went out. Judg. 16:2
After this he loved a woman, who dwelt in the valley of Sorec, and she was called Dalila. Judg. 16:4
Men lying privately in wait with her, and in the chamber, expecting the event of the thing, and she cried out to him: The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he broke the bands, as a man would break a thread of tow twined with spittle, when it smelleth the fire: so it was not known wherein his strength lay. Judg. 16:9
And when she pressed him much, and continually hung upon him for many days, giving him no time to rest, his soul fainted away, and was wearied even unto death. Judg. 16:16
And she said: The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And awaking from sleep, he said in his mind: I will go out as I did before, and shake myself, not knowing that the Lord was departed from him. Judg. 16:20
Now the house was full of men and women, and all the princes of the Philistines were there. Moreover about three thousand persons of both sexes, from the roof and the higher part of the house, were beholding Samson's play. Judg. 16:27
He said: Let me die with the Philistines. And when he had strongly shook the pillars, the house fell upon all the princes, and the rest of the multitude, that was there: and he killed many more at his death, than he had killed before in his life. Judg. 16:30
¤ There was at that time a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Michas. Judg. 17:1
And he restored them to his mother: and she took two hundred pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith, to make of them a graven and a molten God, which was in the house of Michas. Judg. 17:4
In those days there was no king in Israel, but every one did that which seemed right to himself. Judg. 17:6
There was also another young man of Bethlehem Juda, of the kindred thereof: and he was a Levite, and dwelt there. Judg. 17:7
Now he went out from the city of Bethlehem, and desired to sojourn wheresoever he should find it convenient for him. And when he was come to mount Ephraim, as he was on his journey, and had turned aside a little into the house of Michas, Judg. 17:8
He was asked by him whence he came. And he answered: I am a Levite of Bethlehem Juda, and I am going to dwell where I can, and where I shall find a place to my advantage. Judg. 17:9
He was content, and abode with the man, and was unto him as one of his sons. Judg. 17:11
¤ In those days there was no king in Israel, and the tribe of Dan sought them an inheritance to dwell in: for unto that day they had not received their lot among the other tribes. Judg. 18:1
And when they had turned a little aside, they went into the house of the young man the Levite, who was in the house of Michas: and they saluted him with words of peace. Judg. 18:15
And when they were going forward, and had put before them the children and the cattle, and all that was valuable, Judg. 18:21
And the six hundred men took the priest, and the things we spoke of before, and came to Lais, to a people that was quiet and secure, and smote them with the edge of the sword: and the city they burnt with fire, Judg. 18:27
There being no man at all who brought them any succour, because they dwelt far from Sidon, and had no society or business with any man. And the city was in the land of Rohob: and they rebuilt it, and dwelt therein, Judg. 18:28
Calling the name of the city Dan, after the name of their father, who was the son of Israel, which before was called Lais. Judg. 18:29
And the idol of Michas remained with them all the time that the house of God was in Silo. In those days there was no king in Israel. Judg. 18:31
¤ There was a certain Levite, who dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, who took a wife of Bethlehem Juda: Judg. 19:1
But when morning was come, the Levite prepared to go on his journey. And his father in law said to him again: I beseech thee to take a little meat, and strengthening thyself, till the day be farther advanced, afterwards thou mayest depart. And they ate together. Judg. 19:8
And now they were come near Jebus, and the day was far spent: and the servant said to his master: Come, I beseech thee, let us turn into the city of the Jebusites, and lodge there. Judg. 19:11
And behold they saw an old man, returning out of the field and from his work in the evening, and he also was of mount Ephraim, and dwelt as a stranger in Gabaa; but the men of that country were the children of Jemini. Judg. 19:16
He thinking she was taking her rest, said to her: Arise, and let us be going. But as she made no answer, perceiving she was dead, he took her up, and laid her upon his ass, and returned to his house. Judg. 19:28
And when he was come home, he took a sword, and divided the dead body of his wife with her bones into twelve parts, and sent the pieces into all the borders of Israel. Judg. 19:29
And when every one had seen this, they all cried out: There was never such a thing done in Israel, from the day that our fathers came up out of Egypt, until this day: give sentence, and decree in common what ought to be done. Judg. 19:30
(Nor were the children of Benjamin ignorant that the children of Israel were come up to Maspha.) And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was killed being asked, how so great a wickedness had been committed, Judg. 20:3
And behold the men of that city, in the night beset the house wherein I was, intending to kill me, and abused my wife with an incredible fury of lust, so that at last she died. Judg. 20:5
And I took her and cut her in pieces, and sent the parts into all the borders of your possession: because there never was so heinous a crime, and so great an abomination committed in Israel. Judg. 20:6
And inquired of him concerning their state. At that time the ark of the covenant of the Lord was there, Judg. 20:27
And Phinees, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, was over the house. So they consulted the Lord, and said: Shall we go out any more to fight against the children of Benjamin, our brethren, or shall we cease? And the Lord said to them: Go up, for to morrow I will deliver them into your hands. Judg. 20:28
Now the children of Israel had given a sign to them, whom they had laid in ambushes, that after they had taken the city, they should make a fire: that by the smoke rising on high, they might shew that the city was taken. Judg. 20:38
And perceived, as it were, a pillar of smoke rise up from the city; and Benjamin looking back, saw that the city was taken, and that the flames ascended on high: Judg. 20:40
And so it was, that they were slain on both sides by the enemies, and there was no rest of their men dying. They fell and were beaten down on the east side of the city of Gabaa. Judg. 20:43
(At that time also when they were in Silo, no one of them was found there,) Judg. 21:9
And all Israel was very sorry, and repented for the destroying of one tribe out of Israel. Judg. 21:15
And when their fathers and their brethren shall come, and shall begin to complain against you, and to chide, we will say to them: Have pity on them: for they took them not away as by the right of war or conquest, but when they asked to have them, you gave them not, and the fault was committed on your part. Judg. 21:22
In those days there was no king in Israel: but every one did that which seemed right to himself. Judg. 21:25
He was named Elimelech, and his wife Noemi: and his two sons, the one Mahalon, and the other Chelion, Ephrathites of Bethlehem Juda. And entering into the country of Moab, they abode there. Ruth 1:2
And they took wives of the women of Moab, of which one was called Orpha, and the other Ruth. And they dwelt there ten years, Ruth 1:4
And they both died, to wit, Mahalon and Chelion: and the woman was left alone, having lost both her sons and her husband. Ruth 1:5
Then Noemi seeing that Ruth was steadfastly determined to go with her, would not be against it, nor persuade her any more to return to her friends: Ruth 1:18
So they went together, and came to Bethlehem. And when they were come into the city, the report was quickly spread among all: and the women said: This is that Noemi. Ruth 1:19
¤ Now her husband Elimelech had a kinsman, a powerful man, and very rich, whose name was Booz. Ruth 2:1
She went, therefore, and gleaned the ears of corn after the reapers. And it happened that the owner of that field was Booz, who was of the kindred of Elimelech. Ruth 2:3
And Booz said to the young man that was set over the reapers: Whose maid is this ? Ruth 2:5
And Booz said to her: At mealtime come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. So she sat at the side of the reapers, and she heaped to herself frumenty, and ate and was filled, and took the leavings. Ruth 2:14
And her mother in law said to her: Where hast thou gleaned today, and where hast thou wrought? blessed be he that hath had pity on thee. And she told her with whom she had wrought: and she told the man's name, that he was called Booz. Ruth 2:19
¤ After she was returned to her mother in law, Noemi said to her: My daughter, I will seek rest for thee, and will provide that it may be well with thee. Ruth 3:1
And when Booz had eaten, and drunk, and was merry, he went to sleep by the heap of sheaves, and she came softly, and uncovering his feet, laid herself down. Ruth 3:7
And behold, when it was now midnight the man was afraid, and troubled: and he saw a woman lying at his feet, Ruth 3:8
So she slept at his feet till the night was going off. And she arose before men could know one another, and Booz said: Beware lest any man know that thou camest hither. Ruth 3:14
And Booz said to him: When thou shalt buy the field at the woman's hand, thou must take also Ruth, the Moabitess, who was the wife of the deceased: to raise up the name of thy kinsman in his inheritance. Ruth 4:5
Now this in former times was the manner in Israel between kinsmen, that if at any time one yielded his right to another: that the grant might be sure, the man put off his shoe and gave it to his neighbour; this was a testimony of cession of right in Israel. Ruth 4:7
And he said to the ancients, and to all the people: You are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and Chelion's, and Mahalon's, of the hand of Noemi: Ruth 4:9
And Noemi taking the child, laid it in her bosom, and she carried it, and was a nurse unto it. Ruth 4:16
‡ ¤ There was a man of Ramathaimsophim, of Mount Ephraim, and his name was Elcana, the son of Jeroham, the son of Eliu, the son of Thohu, the son of Suph, an Ephraimite: 1 Ki. 1:1
And he had two wives, the name of one was Anna, and the name of the other Phenenna. Phenenna had children: but Anna had no children. 1 Ki. 1:2
Now Anna spoke in her heart, and only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard at all. Heli therefore thought her to be drunk, 1 Ki. 1:13
And she said: Would to God thy handmaid may find grace in thy eyes. So the woman went on her way, and ate, and her countenance was no more changed. 1 Ki. 1:18
And it came to pass when the time was come about, Anna conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel: because she had asked him of the Lord. 1 Ki. 1:20
And after she had weaned him, she carried him with her, with three calves, and three bushels of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she brought him to the house of the Lord in Silo. Now the child was as yet very young: 1 Ki. 1:24
Nor the office of the priests to the people: but whosoever had offered a sacrifice, the servant of the priest came, while the flesh was in boiling, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand, 1 Ki. 2:13
Wherefore the sin of the young men was exceeding great before the Lord: because they withdrew men from the sacrifice of the Lord. 1 Ki. 2:17
Now Heli was very old, and he heard all that his sons did to all Israel: and how they lay with the women that waited at the door of the tabernacle: 1 Ki. 2:22
¤ Now the child Samuel ministered to the Lord before Heli, and the word of the Lord was precious in those days, there was no manifest vision. 1 Ki. 3:1
Before the lamp of God went out, Samuel slept in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was. 1 Ki. 3:3
And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and not one of his words fell to the ground. 1 Ki. 3:19
And all Israel, from Dan to Bersabee, knew that Samuel was a faithful prophet of the Lord. 1 Ki. 3:20
And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, and the earth rang again. 1 Ki. 4:5
And the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, and they said: What is this noise of a great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the Lord was come into the camp. 1 Ki. 4:6
Woe to us: for there was no such great joy yesterday, and the day before: Woe to us. Who shall deliver us from the hand of these high Gods? these are the Gods that struck Egypt with all the plagues in the desert. 1 Ki. 4:8
So the Philistines fought, and Israel was overthrown, and every man fled to his own dwelling: and there was an exceeding great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen. 1 Ki. 4:10
And the ark of God was taken: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were slain. 1 Ki. 4:11
And when he was come, Heli sat upon a stool over against the way, watching. For his heart was fearful for the ark of God. And when the man was come into the city, he told it: and all the city cried out. 1 Ki. 4:13
Now Heli was ninety and eight years old, and his eyes were dim, and he could not see. 1 Ki. 4:15
And when he had named the ark of God, he fell from his stool backwards by the door, and broke his neck and died. For he was an old man, and far advanced in years: And he judged Israel forty years. 1 Ki. 4:18
And his daughter in law, the wife of Phinees, was big with child, and near her time: and hearing the news that the ark of God was taken, and her father in law, and her husband, were dead, she bowed herself and fell in labour: for her pains came upon her on a sudden. 1 Ki. 4:19
And when she was upon the point of death, they that stood about her said to her: Fear not, for thou hast borne a son. She answered them not, nor gave heed to them. 1 Ki. 4:20
And she called the child Ichabod, saying: The glory is gone from Israel, because the ark of God was taken, and for her father in law, and for her husband: 1 Ki. 4:21
And she said: The glory is departed from Israel, because the ark of God was taken. 1 Ki. 4:22
And the hand of the Lord was heavy upon the Azotians, and he destroyed them, and afflicted Azotus and the coasts thereof with emerods. And in the villages and fields in the midst of that country, there came forth a multitude of mice, and there was the confusion of a great mortality in the city. 1 Ki. 5:6
Therefore they sent the ark of God into Accaron. And when the ark of God was come into Accaron, the Accaronites cried out, saying: They have brought the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people. 1 Ki. 5:10
For there was the fear of death in every city, and the hand of God was exceeding heavy. The men also that did not die, were afflicted with the emerods: and the cry of every city went up to heaven. 1 Ki. 5:12
¤ Now the ark of God was in the land of the Philistines seven months. 1 Ki. 6:1
Why do you harden your hearts, as Egypt and Pharao hardened their hearts? did not he, after he was struck, then let them go, and they departed? 1 Ki. 6:6
And the cart came into the field of Josue, a Bethsamite, and stood there. And there was a great stone, and they cut in pieces the wood of the cart, and laid the kine upon it a holocaust to the Lord. 1 Ki. 6:14
And the Levites took down the ark of God, and the little box that was at the side of it, wherein were the vessels of gold, and they put them upon the great stone. The men also of Bethsames offered holocausts, and sacrificed victims that day to the Lord. 1 Ki. 6:15
And the golden mice, according to the number of the cities of the Philistines, of the five provinces, from the fenced city to the village that was without wall, and to the great Abel (the stone) whereon they set down the ark of the Lord, which was till that day in the field of Josue the Bethsamite. 1 Ki. 6:18
And it came to pass, that from the day the ark of the Lord abode in Cariathiarim, days were multiplied (for it was now the twentieth year) and all the house of Israel rested, following the Lord. 1 Ki. 7:2
And it came to pass, when Samuel was offering the holocaust, the Philistines began the battle against Israel: but the Lord thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and terrified them, and they were overthrown before the face of Israel. 1 Ki. 7:10
And the Philistines were humbled, and they did not come any more into the borders of Israel. And the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines, all the days of Samuel. 1 Ki. 7:13
And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel, were restored to Israel, from Accaron to Geth, and their borders: and he delivered Israel from the hand of the Philistines, and there was peace between Israel and the Amorrhites. 1 Ki. 7:14
And he returned to Ramatha: for there was his house, and there he judged Israel: he built also there an altar to the Lord. 1 Ki. 7:17
¤ And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel. 1 Ki. 8:1
Now the name of his firstborn son was Joel: and the name of the second was Abia, judges in Bersabee. 1 Ki. 8:2
And the word was displeasing in the eyes of Samuel, that they should say: Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed to the Lord. 1 Ki. 8:6
¤ Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Cis, the son of Abiel, the son of Seror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphia, the son of a man of Jemini, valiant and strong. 1 Ki. 9:1
And he had a son whose name was Saul, a choice and goodly man, and there was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person than he: from his shoulders and upward he appeared above all the people. 1 Ki. 9:2
And when they were come to the land of Suph, Saul said to the servant that was with him: Come, let us return, lest perhaps my father forget the asses, and be concerned for us. 1 Ki. 9:5
Now in time past in Israel, when a man went to consult God, he spoke thus: Come, let us go to the seer. For he that is now called a prophet, in time past was called a seer. 1 Ki. 9:9
And Saul said to his servant: Thy word is very good, come let us go. And they went into the city, where the man of God was. 1 Ki. 9:10
And they went up into the city. And when they were walking in the midst of the city, behold Samuel was coming out over against them, to go up to the high place. 1 Ki. 9:14
And the cook took up the shoulder, and set it before Saul. And Samuel said: Behold what is left, set it before thee, and eat; because it was kept of purpose for thee, when I invited the people. And Saul ate with Samuel that day. 1 Ki. 9:24
And all that had known him yesterday and the day before, seeing that he was with the prophets, and prophesied, said to each other: What is this that hath happened to the son of Cis? is Saul also among the prophets? 1 Ki. 10:11
And he brought the tribe of Benjamin and the kindreds thereof, and the lot fell upon the kindred of Metri, and it came to Saul, the son of Cis. They sought him therefore, and he was not found. 1 Ki. 10:21
And they ran and fetched him thence: and he stood in the midst of the people, and he was higher than any of the people from the shoulders and upward. 1 Ki. 10:23
And the Spirit of the Lord came upon Saul, when he had heard these words, and his anger was exceedingly kindled. 1 Ki. 11:6
And it came to pass, when the morrow was come, that Saul put the people in three companies: and he came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and he slew the Ammonites until the day grew hot, and the rest were scattered, so that two of them were not left together. 1 Ki. 11:11
But seeing that Naas, king of the children of Ammon, was come against you, you said to me: Nay, but a king shall reign over us: whereas the Lord your God was your king. 1 Ki. 12:12
¤ Saul was a child of one year when he began to reign, and he reigned two years over Israel. 1 Ki. 13:1
And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines which was in Gabaa. And when the Philistines had heard of it, Saul sounded the trumpet over all the land, saying: Let the Hebrews hear. 1 Ki. 13:3
And some of the Hebrews passed over the Jordan into the land of Gad and Galaad. And when Saul was yet in Galgal, all the people that followed him were greatly afraid. 1 Ki. 13:7
Now there was no smith to be found in all the land of Israel, for the Philistines had taken this precaution, lest the Hebrews should make them swords or spears. 1 Ki. 13:19
So that their shares, and their spades, and their forks, and their axes, were blunt, even to the goad, which was to be mended. 1 Ki. 13:21
And when the day of battle was come, there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan, except Saul and Jonathan his son. 1 Ki. 13:22
And Saul abode in the uttermost part of Gabaa, under the pomegranate tree, which was in Magron: and the people with him were about six hundred men. 1 Ki. 14:2
And Achias, the son of Achitob, brother of Ichabod the son of Phinees, the son of Heli, the priest of the Lord in Silo, wore the ephod. And the people knew not whither Jonathan was gone. 1 Ki. 14:3
Now there were between the ascents, by which Jonathan sought to go over to the garrison of the Philistines, rocks standing up on both sides, and steep cliffs like teeth on the one side, and on the other, the name of the one was Boses, and the name of the other was Sene: 1 Ki. 14:4
And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armourbearer made, was of about twenty men, within half an acre of land, which a yoke of oxen is wont to plough in a day. 1 Ki. 14:14
And there was a miracle in the camp, in the fields: and all the people of their garrison, who had gone out to plunder, were amazed, and the earth trembled: and it happened as a miracle from God. 1 Ki. 14:15
And Saul said to the people that were with him: Look, and see who is gone from us. And when they had sought, it was found that Jonathan and his armourbearer were not there. 1 Ki. 14:17
And Saul said to Achias: Bring the ark of the Lord. (For the ark of God was there that day with the children of Israel.) 1 Ki. 14:18
And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great uproar in the camp of the Philistines: and it increased by degrees, and was heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest: Draw in thy hand. 1 Ki. 14:19
Then Saul, and all the people that were with him, shouted together, and they came to the place of the fight: and behold every man's sword was turned upon his neighbour, and there was a very great slaughter. 1 Ki. 14:20
And all the common people came into a forest, in which there was honey upon the ground. 1 Ki. 14:25
As the Lord liveth, who is the Saviour of Israel, if it was done by Jonathan, my son, he shall surely die. In this none of the people gainsayed him. 1 Ki. 14:39
And Saul said: (Cast lots between me, and Jonathan, my son. And Jonathan was taken. 1 Ki. 14:42
And Saul said to Jonathan: Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said: I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod, which was in my hand, and behold I must die. 1 Ki. 14:43
And the sons of Saul, were Jonathan, and Jessui, and Melchisua: and the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn was Merob, and the name of the younger Michol. 1 Ki. 14:49
And the name of Saul's wife was Achinoam, the daughter of Achimaas; and the name of the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, the cousin german of Saul. 1 Ki. 14:50
For Cis was the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abner, was son of Abiel. 1 Ki. 14:51
And there was a great war against the Philistines all the days of Saul. For whomsoever Saul saw to be a valiant man, and fit for war, he took him to himself. 1 Ki. 14:52
And when Saul was come to the city of Amalec, he laid ambushes in the torrent. 1 Ki. 15:5
And Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the flocks of sheep, and of the herds, and the garments and the rams, and all that was beautiful, and would not destroy them: but every thing that was vile, and good for nothing, that they destroyed. 1 Ki. 15:9
It repenteth me that I have made Saul king: for he hath forsaken me, and hath not executed my commandments. And Samuel was grieved, and he cried unto the Lord all night. 1 Ki. 15:11
And when Samuel rose early, to go to Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel that Saul was come to Carmel, and had erected for himself a triumphant arch, and returning had passed on, and gone down to Galgal. And Samuel came to Saul, and Saul was offering a holocaust to the Lord, out of the choicest of the spoils, which he had brought from Amalec. 1 Ki. 15:12
And when Samuel was come to Saul, Saul said to him: Blessed be thou of the Lord, I have fulfilled the word of the Lord. 1 Ki. 15:13
And Samuel said: Bring hither to me Agag, the king of Amalec. And Agag was presented to him very fat, and trembling. And Agag said: Doth bitter death separate in this manner? 1 Ki. 15:32
He sent therefore and brought him. Now he was ruddy and beautiful to behold, and of a comely face. And the Lord said: Arise, and anoint him, for this is he. 1 Ki. 16:12
So whensoever the evil spirit from the Lord was upon Saul, David took his harp, and played with his hand, and Saul was refreshed, and was better, for the evil spirit departed from him. 1 Ki. 16:23
And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them. 1 Ki. 17:3
And there went out a man baseborn from the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Geth, whose height was six cubits and a span: 1 Ki. 17:4
And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a coat of mail with scales, and the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass: 1 Ki. 17:5
And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred sicles of iron: and his armourbearer went before him. 1 Ki. 17:7
Now David was the son of that Ephrathite, of Bethlehem Juda, before mentioned, whose name was Isai, who had eight sons, and was an old man in the days of Saul, and of great age among men. 1 Ki. 17:12
But David was the youngest. So the three eldest having followed Saul, 1 Ki. 17:14
David, therefore, arose in the morning, and gave the charge of the flock to the keeper: and went away loaded, as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place of Magala, and to the army, which was going out to fight, and shouted for the battle. 1 Ki. 17:20
And as he talked with them, that baseborn man, whose name was Goliath, the Philistine, of Geth, shewed himself coming up from the camp of the Philistines: and he spoke according to the same words, and David heard them, 1 Ki. 17:23
Now when Eliab his eldest brother heard this, when he was speaking with others, he was angry with David, and said: Why camest thou hither? and why didst thou leave those few sheep in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickedness of thy heart: that thou art come down to see the battle. 1 Ki. 17:28
And when he was brought to Saul, he said to him. Let not any man's heart be dismayed in him: I thy servant will go, and will fight against the Philistine. 1 Ki. 17:32
And David having girded his sword upon his armour, began to try if he could walk in armour: for he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: I cannot go thus, for I am not used to it. And he laid them off, 1 Ki. 17:39
And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance. 1 Ki. 17:42
And when the Philistine arose, and was coming, and drew nigh to meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the Philistine. 1 Ki. 17:48
And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about, struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth. 1 Ki. 17:49
He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away. 1 Ki. 17:51
And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain, Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand. 1 Ki. 17:57
¤ And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. 1 Ki. 18:1
And Jonathan stripped himself of the coat with which he was clothed, and gave it to David, and the rest of his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle. 1 Ki. 18:4
And David went out to whatsoever business Saul sent him, and he behaved himself prudently: and Saul set him over the soldiers, and he was acceptable in the eyes of all the people, and especially in the eyes of Saul's servants. 1 Ki. 18:5
And Saul was exceeding angry, and this word was displeasing in his eyes, and he said: They have given David ten thousands, and to me they have given but a thousand, what can he have more but the kingdom? 1 Ki. 18:8
And Saul feared David, because the Lord was with him, and was departed from Saul himself. 1 Ki. 18:12
And David behaved wisely in all his ways, and the Lord was with him. 1 Ki. 18:14
And Saul saw that he was exceeding prudent, and began to beware of him. 1 Ki. 18:15
And it came to pass at the time when Merob, the daughter of Saul, should have been given to David, that she was given to Hadriel, the Molathite, to wife. 1 Ki. 18:19
But Michol, the other daughter of Saul, loved David. And it was told Saul, and it pleased him. 1 Ki. 18:20
And when his servants had told David the words that Saul had said, the word was pleasing in the eyes of David to be the king's son in law. 1 Ki. 18:26
And Saul saw, and understood that the Lord was with David. And Michol, the daughter of Saul, loved him. 1 Ki. 18:28
And when Saul heard this, he was appeased with the words of Jonathan, and swore: As the Lord liveth, he shall not be slain. 1 Ki. 19:6
Then Jonathan called David, and told him all these words: and Jonathan brought in David to Saul, and he was before him, as he had been yesterday and the day before. 1 Ki. 19:7
And Saul endeavoured to nail David to the wall with his spear. And David slipt away out of the presence of Saul: and the spear missed him, and was fastened in the wall, and David fled, and escaped that night. 1 Ki. 19:10
And Saul sent officers to seize David; and it was answered that he was sick. 1 Ki. 19:14
And it was told Saul by some, saying: Behold David is in Najoth, in Ramatha. 1 Ki. 19:19
And when this was told Saul, he sent other messengers: but they also prophesied. And again Saul sent messengers the third time: and they prophesied also. And Saul being exceedingly angry, 1 Ki. 19:21
Went also himself to Ramatha, and came as far as the great cistern, which is in Socho, and he asked, and said: In what place are Samuel and David? And it was told him: Behold they are in Najoth, in Ramatha. 1 Ki. 19:22
So David was hid in the field, and the new moon came, and the king sat down to eat bread. 1 Ki. 20:24
And when the king sat down upon his chair, (according to custom) which was beside the wall, Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place appeared empty. 1 Ki. 20:25
And Saul said nothing that day, for he thought it might have happened to him, that he was not clean, nor purified. 1 Ki. 20:26
And when the second day after the new moon was come, David's place appeared empty again. And Saul said to Jonathan, his son: Why cometh not the son of Isai to meat neither yesterday, nor to day? 1 Ki. 20:27
And Saul caught up a spear to strike him. And Jonathan understood that it was determined by his father to kill David. 1 Ki. 20:33
So Jonathan rose from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon. For he was grieved for David, because his father had put him to confusion. 1 Ki. 20:34
And he knew not at all what was doing: for only Jonathan and David knew the matter. 1 Ki. 20:39
And when the boy was gone, David rose out of his place, which was toward the south, and falling on his face to the ground, adored thrice: and kissing one another, they wept together; but David more. 1 Ki. 20:41
¤ And David came to Nobe, to Achimelech, the priest and Achimelech was astonished at David's coming. And he said to him: Why art thou alone, and no man with thee? 1 Ki. 21:1
The priest therefore gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there, but only the loaves of proposition, which had been taken away from before the face of the Lord, that hot loaves might be set up. 1 Ki. 21:6
Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, within the tabernacle of the Lord: and his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chiefest of Saul's herdsmen. 1 Ki. 21:7
But David laid up these words in his heart, and was exceedingly afraid at the face of Achis, the king of Geth. 1 Ki. 21:12
And Achis said to his servants: You saw the man was mad: why have you brought him to me? 1 Ki. 21:14
And he left them under the eyes of the king of Moab, and they abode with him all the days that David was in the hold. 1 Ki. 22:4
And Saul heard that David was seen, and the men that were with him. Now whilst Saul abode in Gabaa, and was in the wood, which is by Rama, having his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him, 1 Ki. 22:6
And Doeg, the Edomite, who stood by, and was the chief among the servants of Saul, answering, said: I saw the son of Isai, in Nobe, with Achimelech, the son of Achitob, the priest. 1 Ki. 22:9
And the king said to the messengers that stood about him: Turn, and kill the priests of the Lord, for their hand is with David, because they knew that he was fled, and they told it not to me. And the king's servants would not put forth their hands against the priests of the Lord. 1 Ki. 22:17
But one of the sons of Achimelech, the son of Achitob, whose name was Abiathar, escaped, and fled to David, 1 Ki. 22:20
And David said to Abiathar: I knew that day when Doeg, the Edomite, was there, that without doubt he would tell Saul: I have been the occasion of the death of all the souls of thy father's house. 1 Ki. 22:22
And it was told Saul that David was come to Ceila: and Saul said: The Lord hath delivered him into my hands, and he is shut up, being come into a city that hath gates and bars. 1 Ki. 23:7
Then David and his men, who were about six hundred, arose, and departing from Ceila, wandered up and down, uncertain where they should stay: and it was told Saul that David was fled from Ceila, and had escaped: wherefore he forbore to go out. 1 Ki. 23:13
And David saw that Saul was come out to seek his life. And David was in the desert of Ziph, in a wood. 1 Ki. 23:15
Then Saul and his men went to seek him: and it was told David, and forthwith he went down to the rock, and abode in the wilderness of Maon: and when Saul had heard of it, he pursued after David in the wilderness of Maon. 1 Ki. 23:25
¤ And when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, they told him, saying: Behold, David is in the desert of Engaddi. 1 Ki. 24:1
And he came to the sheepcotes which were in his way. And there was a cave, into which Saul went, to ease nature: now David and his men lay hid in the inner part of the cave. 1 Ki. 24:3
¤ And Samuel died, and all Israel was gathered together, and they mourned for him, and buried him in his house in Ramatha. And David rose, and went down into the wilderness of Pharan. 1 Ki. 25:1
Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel. 1 Ki. 25:2
Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman: but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb. 1 Ki. 25:3
And when David heard in the wilderness, that Nabal was shearing his sheep, 1 Ki. 25:4
I have heard that thy shepherds that were with us in the desert were shearing: we never molested them, neither was there ought missing to them of the flock at any time, all the while they were with us in Carmel. 1 Ki. 25:7
And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them. 1 Ki. 25:20
And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this fellow in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good. 1 Ki. 25:21
And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king: and Nabal's heart was merry, for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning. 1 Ki. 25:36
And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach, at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife. 1 Ki. 25:39
But Saul gave Michol, his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti, the son of Lais, who was of Gallim. 1 Ki. 25:44
And Saul encamped in Gabaa Hachila, which was over against the wilderness in the way: and David abode in the wilderness. And seeing that Saul was come after him into the wilderness, 1 Ki. 26:3
He sent spies, and learned that he was most certainly come thither. 1 Ki. 26:4
And David arose secretly, and came to the place where Saul was: and when he had beheld the place, wherein Saul slept, and Abner, the son of Ner, the captain of his army, and Saul sleeping in a tent, and the rest of the multitude round about him, 1 Ki. 26:5
So David took the spear, and the cup of water which was at Saul's head, and they went away: and no man saw it, or knew it, or awaked, but they were all asleep, for a deep sleep from the Lord was fallen upon them. 1 Ki. 26:12
And when David was gone over to the other side, and stood on the top of the hill afar off, and a good space was between them, 1 Ki. 26:13
This thing is not good, that thou hast done: as the Lord liveth, you are the sons of death, who have not kept your master, the Lord's anointed. And now where is the king's spear, and the cup of water, which was at his head? 1 Ki. 26:16
And it was told Saul that David was fled to Geth, and he sought no more after him. 1 Ki. 27:4
And the time that David dwelt in the country of the Philistines, was four months. 1 Ki. 27:7
And David saved neither man nor woman, neither brought he any of them to Geth, saying: Lest they should speak against us. So did David, and such was his proceeding all the days that he dwelt in the country of the Philistines. 1 Ki. 27:11
Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel mourned for him, and buried him in Ramatha, his city. And Saul had put away all the magicians and soothsayers out of the land. 1 Ki. 28:3
And Saul saw the army of the Philistines, and was afraid, and his heart was very much dismayed. 1 Ki. 28:5
And he said to her: What form is he of? And she said: An old man cometh up, and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul understood that it was Samuel, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground, and adored. 1 Ki. 28:14
And forthwith Saul fell all along on the ground; for he was frightened with the words of Samuel, and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all that day. 1 Ki. 28:20
And the woman came to Saul, (for he was very much troubled) and said to him: Behold thy handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand: and I hearkened unto the words which thou spokest to me. 1 Ki. 28:21
And the princes of the Philistines said to Achis: What mean these Hebrews? And Achis said to the princes of the Philistines: Do you not know David who was the servant of Saul, the king of Israel, and hath been with me many days, or years, and I have found no fault in him, since the day that he fled over to me until this day? 1 Ki. 29:3
And David was greatly afflicted: for the people had a mind to stone him, for the soul of every man was bitterly grieved for his sons and daughters: but David took courage in the Lord his God. 1 Ki. 30:6
As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them, his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water, three days and three nights. 1 Ki. 30:12
And there was nothing missing small or great, neither of their sons or their daughters, nor of the spoils, and whatsoever they had taken, David recovered all. 1 Ki. 30:19
And this hath been done from that day forward, and since was made a statute and an ordinance, and as a law in Israel. 1 Ki. 30:25
And the whole weight of the battle was turned upon Saul: and the archers overtook him, and he was grievously wounded by the archers. 1 Ki. 31:3
Then Saul said to his armourbearer: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest these uncircumcised come, and slay me, and mock at me. And his armourbearer would not: for he was struck with exceeding great fear. Then Saul took his sword, and fell upon it. 1 Ki. 31:4
And when his armourbearer saw this, to wit, that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died with him. 1 Ki. 31:5
And the men of Israel, that were beyond the valley, and beyond the Jordan, seeing that the Israelites were fled, and that Saul was dead, and his sons, forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelt there. 1 Ki. 31:7
‡ ¤ Now it came to pass, after Saul was dead, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalecites, and abode two days in Siceleg. 2 Ki. 1:1
So standing over him, I killed him: for I knew that he could not live after the fall: and I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither to thee, my lord. 2 Ki. 1:10
Ye mountains of Gelboe, let neither dew, nor rain come upon you, neither be they fields of firstfruits: for there was cast away the shield of the valiant, the shield of Saul as though he had not been anointed with oil. 2 Ki. 1:21
And the men of Juda came, and anointed David there, to be king over the house of Juda. And it was told David that the men of Jabes Galaad had buried Saul. 2 Ki. 2:4
Isboseth the son of Saul was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years; and only the house of Juda followed David. 2 Ki. 2:10
And the number of the days that David abode, reigning in Hebron over the house of Juda, was seven years and six months. 2 Ki. 2:11
And every one catching his fellow by the head, thrust his sword into the side of his adversary, and they fell down together: and the name of the place was called: The field of the valiant, in Gabaon. 2 Ki. 2:16
And there was a very fierce battle that day: and Abner was put to flight, with the men of Israel, by the servants of David. 2 Ki. 2:17
And there were the three sons of Sarvia there, Joab, and Abisai, and Asael: now Asael was a most swift runner, like one of the roes that abide in the woods. 2 Ki. 2:18
¤ Now there was a long war between the house of Saul and the house of David: David prospering and growing always stronger and stronger, but the house of Saul decaying daily. 2 Ki. 3:1
And sons were born to David in Hebron: and his firstborn was Ammon of Achinoam the Jezrahelitess: 2 Ki. 3:2
Now while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner the son of Ner ruled the house of Saul. 2 Ki. 3:6
Why didst thou go in to my father's concubine? And he was exceedingly angry for the words of Isboseth, and said: Am I a dog's head against Juda this day, who have shewn mercy to the house of Saul thy father, and to his brethren and friends, and have not delivered thee into the hands of David, and hast thou sought this day against me to charge me with a matter concerning a woman? 2 Ki. 3:8
And Abner said to David: I will rise, that I may gather all Israel unto thee my lord the king, and may enter into a league with thee, and that thou mayst reign over all as thy soul desireth. Now when David had brought Abner on his way, and he was gone in peace, 2 Ki. 3:21
Immediately, David's servants and Joab came, after having slain the robbers, with an exceeding great booty. And Abner was not with David in Hebron, for he had now sent him away, and he was gone in peace. 2 Ki. 3:22
And Joab and all the army that was with him, came afterwards: and it was told Joab, that Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he hath sent him away, and he is gone in peace. 2 Ki. 3:23
And when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside to the middle of the gate, to speak to him treacherously: and he stabbed him there in the groin, and he died, in revenge of the blood of Asael his brother. 2 Ki. 3:27
And when David heard of it, after the thing was now done, he said: I, and my kingdom are innocent before the Lord for ever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner: 2 Ki. 3:28
And when all the people came to take meat with David, while it was yet broad day, David swore, saying: So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread or any thing else before sunset. 2 Ki. 3:35
And all the people, and all Israel understood that day that it was not the king's doing, that Abner the son of Ner was slain. 2 Ki. 3:37
¤ And Isboseth the son of Saul heard that Abner was slain in Hebron: and his hands were weakened, and all Israel was troubled. 2 Ki. 4:1
Now the son of Saul had two men captains of his bands, the name of the one was Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Remmon a Berothite of the children of Benjamin: for Beroth also was reckoned in Benjamin. 2 Ki. 4:2
And Jonathan the son of Saul had a son that was lame of his feet: for he was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan from Jezrahel. And his nurse took him up and fled: and as she made haste to flee, he fell and became lame: and his name was Miphiboseth. 2 Ki. 4:4
And the sons of Remmon the Berothite, Rechab and Baana coming, went into the house of Isboseth in the heat of the day: and he was sleeping upon his bed at noon. And the doorkeeper of the house, who was cleansing wheat, was fallen asleep. 2 Ki. 4:5
For when they came into the house, he was sleeping upon his bed in a parlour, and they struck him and killed him and taking away his head they went off by the way of the wilderness, walking all night. 2 Ki. 4:7
Moreover yesterday also and the day before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that did lead out and bring in Israel: and the Lord said to thee: Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel. 2 Ki. 5:2
David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years. 2 Ki. 5:4
And he went on prospering and growing up, and the Lord God of hosts was with him. 2 Ki. 5:10
And David took more concubines and wives of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron: and there were born to David other sons also and daughters: 2 Ki. 5:13
And David came to Baal Pharisim: and defeated them there, and he said, The Lord hath divided my enemies before me, as waters are divided. Therefore the name of the place was called Baal Pharisim. 2 Ki. 5:20
And they laid the ark of God upon a new cart: and took it out of the house of Abinadab, who was in Gabaa, and Oza and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart. 2 Ki. 6:3
And when they had taken it out of the house of Abinadab, who was in Gabaa, Ahio having care of the ark of God went before the ark. 2 Ki. 6:4
And the indignation of the Lord was enkindled against Oza, and he struck him for his rashness: and he died there before the ark of God. 2 Ki. 6:7
And David was grieved because the Lord had struck Oza, and the name of that place was called: The striking of Oza, to this day. 2 Ki. 6:8
And David was afraid of the Lord that day, saying: How shall the ark of the Lord come to me? 2 Ki. 6:9
And it was told king David, that the Lord had blessed Obededom, and all that he had, because of the ark of God. So David went, and brought away the ark of God out of the house of Obededom into the city of David with joy. And there were with David seven choirs, and calves for victims. 2 Ki. 6:12
And David danced with all his might before the Lord: and David was girded with a linen ephod. 2 Ki. 6:14
And when the ark of the Lord was come into the city of David, Michol the daughter of Saul, looking out through a window, saw king David leaping and dancing before the Lord: and she despised him in her heart. 2 Ki. 6:16
And David returned to bless his own house: and Michol the daughter of Saul coming out to meet David, said: How glorious was the king of Israel to day, uncovering himself before the handmaids of his servants, and was naked, as if one of the buffoons should be naked. 2 Ki. 6:20
And he defeated Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the earth: and he measured with two lines, one to put to death, and one to save alive: and Moab was made to serve David under tribute. 2 Ki. 8:2
And Thou sent Joram his son to king David, to salute him, and to congratulate with him, and to return him thanks: because he had fought against Adarezer, and had defeated him. For Thou was an enemy to Adarezer, and in his hand were vessels of gold, and vessels of silver, and vessels of brass: 2 Ki. 8:10
And he put guards in Edom, and placed there a garrison: and all Edom was made to serve David: and the Lord preserved David in all enterprises he went about. 2 Ki. 8:14
And Joab the son of Sarvia was over the army: and Josaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder: 2 Ki. 8:16
And Sadoc the son of Achitob, and Achimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests: and Saraias was the scribe: 2 Ki. 8:17
And Banaias the son of Joiada was over the Cerethi and Phelethi: and the sons of David were the princes. 2 Ki. 8:18
Now there was of the house of Saul, a servant named Siba: and when the king had called him to him, he said to him: Art thou Siba? And he answered: I am Siba thy servant. 2 Ki. 9:2
And when Miphiboseth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul was come to David, he fell on his face and worshipped. And David said: Miphiboseth? And he answered: Behold thy servant. 2 Ki. 9:6
And Miphiboseth had a young son whose name was Micha: and all the kindred of the house of Siba served Miphiboseth. 2 Ki. 9:12
But Miphiboseth dwelt in Jerusalem: because he ate always of the king's table: and he was lame of both feet. 2 Ki. 9:13
When this was told David, he sent to meet them: for the men were sadly put to confusion, and David commanded them, saying: Stay at Jericho, till your beards be grown, and then return. 2 Ki. 10:5
Then Joab seeing that the battle was prepared against him, both before and behind, chose of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians: 2 Ki. 10:9
And Adarezer sent and fetched the Syrians, that were beyond the river, and brought over their army: and Sobach, the captain of the host of Adarezer, was their general. 2 Ki. 10:16
And when this was told David, he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam: and the Syrians set themselves in array against David, and fought against him. 2 Ki. 10:17
In the mean time it happened that David arose from his bed after noon, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: And he saw from the roof of his house a woman washing herself, over against him: and the woman was very beautiful. 2 Ki. 11:2
And the king sent, and inquired who the woman was. And it was told him, that she was Bethsabee the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urias the Hethite. 2 Ki. 11:3
And David sent messengers, and took her, and she came in to him, and he slept with her: and presently she was purified from her uncleanness: 2 Ki. 11:4
And Urias came to David. And David asked how Joab did, and the people, and how the war was carried on. 2 Ki. 11:7
And it was told David by some that said: Urias went not to his house. And David said to Urias: Didst thou not come from thy journey? why didst thou not go down to thy house? 2 Ki. 11:10
And when the morning was come, David wrote a letter to Joab: and sent it by the hand of Urias, 2 Ki. 11:14
Wherefore as Joab was besieging the city, he put Urias in the place where he knew the bravest men were. 2 Ki. 11:16
And the men coming out of the city, fought against Joab, and there fell some of the people of the servants of David, and Urias the Hethite was killed also. 2 Ki. 11:17
And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for him. 2 Ki. 11:26
And the mourning being over, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore him a son: and this thing which David had done, was displeasing to the Lord. 2 Ki. 11:27
¤ And the Lord sent Nathan to David: and when he was come to him, he said to him: There were two men in one city, the one rich, and the other poor. 2 Ki. 12:1
But the poor man had nothing at all but one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up, and which had grown up in his house together with his children, eating of his bread, and drinking of his cup, and sleeping in his bosom: and it was unto him as a daughter. 2 Ki. 12:3
And when a certain stranger was come to the rich man, he spared to take of his own sheep and oxen, to make a feast for that stranger, who was come to him, but took the poor man's ewe, and dressed it for the man that was come to him. 2 Ki. 12:4
And Nathan returned to his house. The Lord also struck the child which the wife of Urias had borne to David, and his life was despaired of. 2 Ki. 12:15
And it came to pass on the seventh day that the child died: and the servants of David feared to tell him, that the child was dead. For they said: Behold when the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how much more will he afflict himself if we tell him that the child is dead? 2 Ki. 12:18
But when David saw his servants whispering, he understood that the child was dead: and he said to his servants: Is the child dead? They answered him He is dead. 2 Ki. 12:19
And his servants said to him: What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive, but when the child was dead, thou didst rise up, and eat bread. 2 Ki. 12:21
And he said: While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept for him: for I said: Who knoweth whether the Lord may not give him to me, and the child may live? 2 Ki. 12:22
And he took the crown of their king from his head, the weight of which was a talent of gold, set with most precious stones, and it was put upon David's head, and the spoils of the city which were very great he carried away. 2 Ki. 12:30
¤ And it came to pass after this that Ammon the son of David loved the sister of Absalom the son of David, who was very beautiful, and her name was Thamar. 2 Ki. 13:1

And she was clothed with a long robe: for the king's daughters that were virgins, used such kind of garments. Then his servant thrust her out: and shut the door after her. 2 Ki. 13:18
And when king David heard of these things he was exceedingly grieved: and he would not afflict the spirit of his son Ammon, for he loved him, because he was his firstborn. 2 Ki. 13:21
But Jonadab the son of Semmaa David's brother answering, said: Let not my lord the king think that all the king's sons are slain: Ammon only is dead, for he was appointed by the mouth of Absalom from the day that he ravished his sister Thamar. 2 Ki. 13:32
And Absalom after he was fled, and come into Gessur, was there three years. 2 Ki. 13:38
And king David ceased to pursue after Absalom, because he was comforted concerning the death of Ammon. 2 Ki. 13:39
¤ And Joab the son of Sarvia, understanding that the king's heart was turned to Absalom, 2 Ki. 14:1
And when the woman of Thecua was come in to the king, she fell before him upon the ground, and worshipped, and said: Save me, O king. 2 Ki. 14:4

For thy servant made a vow, when he was in Gessur of Syria, saying: If the Lord shall bring me again into Jerusalem, I will offer sacrifice to the Lord. 2 Ki. 15:8

And Sadoc the priest also came, and all the Levites with him carrying the ark of the covenant of God, and they set down the ark of God: and Abiathar went up, till all the people that was come out of the city had done passing. 2 Ki. 15:24
And it was told David that Achitophel also was in the conspiracy with Absalom, and David said: Infatuate, O Lord, I beseech thee, the counsel of Achitophel. 2 Ki. 15:31

And when Chusai the Arachite, David's friend, was come to Absalom, he said to him: God save thee, O king, God save thee, O king. 2 Ki. 16:16
Now the counsel of Achitophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man should consult God: so was all the counsel of Achitophel, both when he was with David, and when he was with Absalom. 2 Ki. 16:23
And when Chusai was come to Absalom, Absalom said to him: Achitophel hath spoken after this manner: shall we do it or not? what counsel dost thou give? 2 Ki. 17:6
And Absalom, and all the men of Israel said: The counsel of Chusai the Arachite is better than the counsel of Achitophel: and by the will of the Lord the profitable counsel of Achitophel was defeated, that the Lord might bring evil upon Absalom. 2 Ki. 17:14
And a woman took, and spread a covering over the mouth of the well, as it were to dry sodden barley and so the thing was not known. 2 Ki. 17:19

But Achitophel seeing that his counsel was not followed, saddled his ass, and arose and went home to his house and to his city, and putting his house in order, hanged himself, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father. 2 Ki. 17:23
Now Absalom appointed Amasa in Joab's stead over the army: and Amasa was the son of a man who was called Jethra, of Jezrael, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Naas, the sister of Sarvia who was the mother of Joab. 2 Ki. 17:25

So the people went out into the field against Israel, and the battle was fought in the forest of Ephraim. 2 Ki. 18:6
And the people of Israel were defeated there by David's army, and a great slaughter was made that day of twenty thousand men. 2 Ki. 18:7
And the battle there was scattered over the face of all the country, and there were many more of the people whom the forest consumed, than whom the sword devoured that day. 2 Ki. 18:8
And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman that was on the top of the gate upon the wall, lifting up his eyes, saw a man running alone. 2 Ki. 18:24

¤ And it was told Joab, that the king wept and mourned for his son: 2 Ki. 19:1

And king David sent to Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests, saying: Speak to the ancients of Juda, saying: Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house? (For the talk of all Israel was come to the king in his house.) 2 Ki. 19:11
They passed the fords before the king, that they might help over the king's household, and do according to his commandment. And Semei the son of Gera falling down before the king, when he was come over the Jordan, 2 Ki. 19:18
Now Berzellai the Galaadite was of a great age, that is to say, fourscore years old, and he provided the king with sustenance when he abode in the camp: for he was a man exceeding rich. 2 Ki. 19:32
And the men of Israel answered the men of Juda, and said: I have ten parts in the king more than thou, and David belongeth to me more than to thee: why hast thou done me a wrong, and why was it not told me first, that I might bring back my king? And the men of Juda answered more harshly than the men of Israel. 2 Ki. 19:43
¤ And there happened to be there a man of Belial, whose name was Seba, the son of Bochri, a man of Jemini: and he sounded the trumpet, and said: We have no part in David, nor inheritance in the son of Isai: return to thy dwellings, O Israel. 2 Ki. 20:1
And when the king was come into his house at Jerusalem, he took the ten women his concubines, whom he had left to keep the house, and put them inward, allowing them provisions: and he went not in unto them, but they were shut up unto the day of their death living in widowhood. 2 Ki. 20:3
And when they were at the great stone which is in Gabaon, Amasa coming met them. And Joab had on a close coat of equal length with his habit, and over it was girded with a sword hanging down to his flank, in a scabbard, made in such manner as to come out with the least motion and strike. 2 Ki. 20:8
And when he was removed out of the way, all the people went on following Joab to pursue after Seba the son of Bochri. 2 Ki. 20:13
And they came, and besieged him in Abela, and in Bethmaacha, and they cast up works round the city, and the city was besieged: and all the people that were with Joab, laboured to throw down the walls. 2 Ki. 20:15
And when he was come near to her, she said to him: Art thou Joab? And he answered: I am. And she spoke thus to him: Hear the words of thy handmaid. He answered: I do hear. 2 Ki. 20:17
And she again said: A saying was used in the old proverb: They that inquire, let them inquire in Abela: and so they made an end. 2 Ki. 20:18
So Joab was over all the army of Israel: and Banaias the son of Joiada was over the Cerethites and Phelethites, 2 Ki. 20:23
But Aduram over the tributes: and Josaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder. 2 Ki. 20:24

And it was told David, what Respha the daughter of Aia, the concubine of Saul, had done. 2 Ki. 21:11
Jesbibenob, who was of the race of Arapha, the iron of whose spear weighed three hundred ounces, being girded with a new sword, attempted to kill David. 2 Ki. 21:16
There was also a second battle in Gob against the Philistines: then Sobochai of Husathi slew Saph of the race of Arapha of the family of the giants. 2 Ki. 21:18
And there was a third battle in Gob against the Philistines, in which Adeodatus the son of the Forrest an embroiderer of Bethlehem slew Goliath the Gethite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam. 2 Ki. 21:19

The earth shook and trembled, the foundations of the mountains were moved, and shaken, because he was angry with them. 2 Ki. 22:8

¤ Now these are David's last words. David the son of Isai said: The man to whom it was appointed concerning the Christ of the God of Jacob, the excellent psalmist of Israel said: 2 Ki. 23:1
These are the names of the valiant men of David: Jesbaham sitting in the chair was the wisest chief among the three, he was like the most tender little worm of the wood, who killed eight hundred men at one onset. 2 Ki. 23:8
After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three valiant men that were with David when they defied the Philistines, and they were there gathered together to battle. 2 Ki. 23:9
And when the men of Israel were gone away, he stood and smote the Philistines till his hand was weary, and grew stiff with the sword: and the Lord wrought a great victory that day: and the people that were fled away, returned to take spoils of them that were slain. 2 Ki. 23:10
And after him was Semma the son of Age of Arari. And the Philistines were gathered together in a troop: for there was a field full of lentils. And when the people were fled from the face of the Philistines, 2 Ki. 23:11
Moreover also before this the three who were princes among the thirty, went down and came to David in the harvest time into the cave of Odollam: and the camp of the Philistines was in the valley of the giants. 2 Ki. 23:13
And David was then in a hold: and there was a garrison of the Philistines then in Bethlehem. 2 Ki. 23:14
And the three valiant men broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the cistern of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and brought it to David: but he would not drink, but offered it to the Lord, 2 Ki. 23:16
Abisai also the brother of Joab, the son of Sarvia, was chief among three: and he lifted up his spear against three hundred whom he slew, and he was renowned among the three, 2 Ki. 23:18
And the noblest of three, and was their chief, but to the three first he attained not. 2 Ki. 23:19
And he was renowned among the three valiant men, who were the most honourable among the thirty: but he attained not to the first three: and David made him of his privy council. 2 Ki. 23:23
Asael the brother of Joab was one of the thirty, Elehanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem. 2 Ki. 23:24
¤ And the anger of the Lord was again kindled against Israel, and stirred up David among them, saying: Go, number Israel and Juda. 2 Ki. 24:1
And when Gad was come to David, he told him, saying: Either seven years of famine shall come to thee in thy land: or thou shalt flee three months before thy adversaries, and they shall pursue thee: or for three days there shall be a pestilence in thy land. Now therefore deliberate, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me. 2 Ki. 24:13
And when the angel of the Lord had stretched out his hand over Jerusalem to destroy it, the Lord had pity on the affliction, and said to the angel that slew the people: It is enough: now hold thy hand. And the angel of the Lord was by the thrashingfloor of Areuna the Jebusite. 2 Ki. 24:16
And David built there an altar to the Lord, and offered holocausts and peace offerings: and the Lord became merciful to the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel. 2 Ki. 24:25
‡ ¤ Now king David was old, and advanced in years: and when he was covered with clothes he was not warm. 3 Ki. 1:1
And the damsel was exceedingly beautiful, and she slept with the king, and served him, but the king did not know her. 3 Ki. 1:4
Neither did his father rebuke him at any time, saying: Why hast thou done this? And he also was very beautiful, the next in birth after Absalom. 3 Ki. 1:6
But Sadoc, the priest, and Banaias, the son of Joiada, and Nathan, the prophet, and Semei, and Rei, and the strength of David's army, was not with Adonias. 3 Ki. 1:8
And Adonias having slain rams and calves, and all fat cattle, by the stone of Zoheleth, which was near the fountain Rogel, invited all his brethren, the king's sons, and all the men of Juda, the king's servants: 3 Ki. 1:9
So Bethsabee went in to the king into the chamber. Now the king was very old, and Abisag, the Sunamitess, ministered to him. 3 Ki. 1:15
As she was yet speaking with the king, Nathan, the prophet, came. 3 Ki. 1:22
And they told the king, saying: Nathan, the prophet, is here. And when he was come in before the king, and had worshipped, bowing down to the ground, 3 Ki. 1:23
And king David answered, and said: Call to me Bethsabee. And when she was come in to the king, and stood before him, 3 Ki. 1:28
And Adonias, and all that were invited by him, heard it, and now the feast was at an end. Joab also, hearing the sound of the trumpet, said: What meaneth this noise of the city in an uproar? 3 Ki. 1:41
Thou knowest also what Joab, the son of Sarvia, hath done to me, what he did to the two captains of the army of Israel, to Abner, the son of Ner, and to Amasa, the son of Jether: whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war on his girdle that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet. 3 Ki. 2:5
So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David. 3 Ki. 2:10
And Solomon sat upon the throne of his father David, and his kingdom was strengthened exceedingly. 3 Ki. 2:12
Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and all Israel had preferred me to be their king: but the kingdom is transferred, and is become my brother's: for it was appointed him by the Lord. 3 Ki. 2:15
Then Bethsabee came to king Solomon, to speak to him for Adonias: and the king arose to meet her, and bowed to her, and sat down upon his throne: and a throne was set for the king's mother, and she sat on his right hand. 3 Ki. 2:19
And it was told king Solomon, that Joab was fled into the tabernacle of the Lord, and was by the altar: and Solomon sent Banaias, the son of Joiada, saying. Go, kill him. 3 Ki. 2:29
So Banaias, the son of Joiada, went up, and setting upon him slew him, and he was buried in his house in the desert. 3 Ki. 2:34
And it came to pass after three years, that the servants of Semei ran away to Achis, the son of Maacha, the king of Geth: and it was told Semei that his servants were gone to Geth. 3 Ki. 2:39
And it was told Solomon, that Semei had gone from Jerusalem to Geth, and was come back. 3 Ki. 2:41
¤ And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon, and he made affinity with Pharao, the king of Egypt: for he took his daughter, and brought her into the city of David: until he had made an end of building his own house, and the house of the Lord, and the wall of Jerusalem round about. 3 Ki. 3:1
But yet the people sacrificed in the high places: for there was no temple built to the name of the Lord until that day. 3 Ki. 3:2
He went therefore to Gabaon, to sacrifice there: for that was the great high place: a thousand victims for holocausts, did Solomon offer upon that altar, in Gabaon. 3 Ki. 3:4
And the word was pleasing to the Lord, that Solomon had asked such a thing. 3 Ki. 3:10
And Solomon awaked, and perceived that it was a dream: and when he was come to Jerusalem, he stood before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and offered holocausts, and sacrificed victims of peace offerings, and made a great feast for all his servants. 3 Ki. 3:15
And one of them said: I beseech thee, my lord, I and this woman dwelt in one house, and I was delivered of a child with her in the chamber. 3 Ki. 3:17
And the third day after that I was delivered, she also was delivered; and we were together, and no other person with us in the house; only we two. 3 Ki. 3:18
And rising in the dead time of the night, she took my child from my side, while I, thy handmaid, was asleep, and laid it in her bosom: and laid her dead child in my bosom. 3 Ki. 3:20
And when I rose in the morning, to give my child suck, behold it was dead: but considering him more diligently, when it was clear day, I found that it was not mine which I bore. 3 Ki. 3:21
But the woman, whose child was alive, said to the king; (for her bowels were moved upon her child) I beseech thee, my lord, give her the child alive, and do not kill it. But the other said: Let it be neither mine nor thine; but divide it. 3 Ki. 3:26
And all Israel heard the judgment which the king had judged, and they feared the king, seeing that the wisdom of God was in him to do judgment. 3 Ki. 3:28
Benhesed, in Aruboth: his was Socho, and all the land of Epher. 3 Ki. 4:10
Bengaber, in Ramoth Galaad: he had the towns of Jair, the son of Manasses, in Galaad: he was chief in all the country of Argob, which is in Basan, threescore great cities with walls, and brazen bolts. 3 Ki. 4:13
Ahinadab, the son of Addo, was chief in Manaim. 3 Ki. 4:14
And the provision of Solomon, for each day, was thirty measures of fine flour, and threescore measures of meal; 3 Ki. 4:22
For he had all the country which was beyond the river, from Thaphsa to Gazan, and all the kings of those countries: and he had peace on every side round about. 3 Ki. 4:24
They brought barley also, and straw for the horses and beasts, to the place where the king was, according as it was appointed them. 3 Ki. 4:28

And he sent them to Libanus, ten thousand every month, by turns, so that two months they were at home: and Adoniram was over this levy. 3 Ki. 5:14
And the house, which king Solomon built to the Lord, was threescore cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and thirty cubits in height. 3 Ki. 6:2
And there was a porch before the temple, of twenty cubits in length, according to the measure of the breadth of the temple: and it was ten cubits in breadth, before the face of the temple. 3 Ki. 6:3
The floor that was underneath was five cubits in breadth, and the middle floor was six cubits in breadth, and the third floor was seven cubits in breadth. And he put beams in the house round about on the outside, that they might not be fastened in the walls of the temple. 3 Ki. 6:6
And the house, when it was in building, was built of stones, hewed and made ready: so that there was neither hammer nor axe, nor any tool of iron heard in the house when it was in building. 3 Ki. 6:7
The door, for the middle side, was on the right hand of the house: and by winding stairs they went up to the middle room, and from the middle to the third. 3 Ki. 6:8
And the temple itself, before the doors of the oracle, was forty cubits long. 3 Ki. 6:17
And all the house was covered within with cedar, having the turnings, and the joints thereof artfully wrought, and carvings projecting out: all was covered with boards of cedar: and no stone could be seen in the wall at all. 3 Ki. 6:18
Now the oracle was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in height. And he covered it, and overlaid it with most pure gold. And the altar also he covered with cedar. 3 Ki. 6:20
And there was nothing in the temple that was not covered with gold: the whole altar of the oracle he covered also with gold. 3 Ki. 6:22
One wing of the cherub was five cubits, and the other wing of the cherub was five cubits: that is, in all ten cubits, from the extremity of one wing to the extremity of the other wing. 3 Ki. 6:24
The second cherub also was ten cubits: and the measure, and the work was the same in both the cherubims: 3 Ki. 6:25
That is to say, one cherub was ten cubits high, and in like manner the other cherub. 3 Ki. 6:26
And two doors of fir tree, one of each side: and each door was double, and so opened with folding leaves. 3 Ki. 6:34
In the fourth year was the house of the Lord founded, in the month Zio: 3 Ki. 6:37
And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul. (which is the eighth month) the house was finished in all the works thereof, and in all the appurtenances thereof: and he was seven years in building it. 3 Ki. 6:38
He built also the house of the forest of Libanus; the length of it was a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty cubits, and the height thirty cubits: and four galleries between pillars of cedar: for he had cut cedar trees into pillars. 3 Ki. 7:2
And he covered the whole vault with boards of cedar, and it was held up with five and forty pillars. And one row had fifteen pillars, 3 Ki. 7:3
And in the midst of the porch, was a small house, where he sat in judgment of the like work. He made also a house for the daughter of Pharao (whom Solomon had taken to wife) of the same work, as this porch; 3 Ki. 7:8
And the great court was made round with three rows of hewed stones, and one row of planks of cedar, which also was observed in the inner court of the house of the Lord, and in the porch of the house. 3 Ki. 7:12
The son of a widow woman, of the tribe of Nephthali, whose father was a Tyrian, an artificer in brass, and full of wisdom, and understanding, and skill to work all work in brass. And when he was come to king Solomon, he wrought all his work. 3 Ki. 7:14
And he cast two pillars in brass, each pillar was eighteen cubits high: and a line of twelve cubits compassed both the pillars. 3 Ki. 7:15
He made also two chapiters of molten brass, to be set upon the tops of the pillars: the height of one chapiter was five cubits, and the height of the other chapiter was five cubits: 3 Ki. 7:16
And upon the tops of the pillars he made lily work: so the work of the pillars was finished. 3 Ki. 7:22
He made also a molten sea, of ten cubits, from brim to brim, round all about; the height of it was five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits compassed it round about. 3 Ki. 7:23
And it stood upon twelve oxen, of which three looked towards the north, and three towards the west, and three towards the south, and three towards the east: and the sea was above upon them, and their hinder parts were all hid within. 3 Ki. 7:25
And the laver was a hand breadth thick: and the brim thereof was like the brim of a cup, or the leaf of a crisped lily: it contained two thousand bates. 3 Ki. 7:26
And he made ten bases of brass, every base was four cubits in length, and four cubits in breadth, and three cubits high. 3 Ki. 7:27
And the work itself of the bases, was intergraven: and there were gravings between the joinings. 3 Ki. 7:28
The mouth also of the laver within, was in the top of the chapiter: and that which appeared without, was of one cubit all round, and together it was one cubit and a half: and in the corners of the pillars were divers engravings: and the spaces between the pillars were square, not round. 3 Ki. 7:31
And the four wheels, which were at the four corners of the base, were joined one to another under the base: the height of a wheel was a cubit and a half. 3 Ki. 7:32
And in the top of the base, there was a round compass of half a cubit, so wrought that the laver might be set thereon, having its gravings, and divers sculptures of itself. 3 Ki. 7:35
He made also ten lavers of brass: one laver contained four bases, and was of four cubits: and upon every base, in all ten, he put as many lavers. 3 Ki. 7:38
Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt. 3 Ki. 8:9
The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers, and not leave us, nor cast us off: 3 Ki. 8:57
In that day the king sanctified the middle of the court, that was before the house of the Lord for there he offered the holocaust, and sacrifice, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was before the Lord, was too little to receive the holocaust, and sacrifice, and the fat of the peace offerings. 3 Ki. 8:64
¤ And it came to pass when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and all that he desired and was pleased to do, 3 Ki. 9:1

And the weight of the gold that was brought to Solomon every year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold: 3 Ki. 10:14
It had six steps: and the top of the throne was round behind: and there were two hands on either side holding the seat: and two lions stood, one at each hand, 3 Ki. 10:19
And twelve little lions stood upon the six steps, on the one side and on the other: there was no such work made in any kingdom. 3 Ki. 10:20
Moreover, all the vessels out of which king Solomon drank, were of gold: and all the furniture of the house of the forest of Libanus was of most pure gold: there was no silver, nor was any account made of it in the days of Solomon: 3 Ki. 10:21
Of the nations concerning which the Lord said to the children of Israel: You shall not go in unto them, neither shall any of them come into yours: for they will most certainly turn away your heart to follow their gods. And to these was Solomon joined with a most ardent love. 3 Ki. 11:2
And when he was now old, his heart was turned away by women to follow strange gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David, his father. 3 Ki. 11:4
And Solomon did that which was not pleasing before the Lord, and did not fully follow the Lord, as David, his father. 3 Ki. 11:6
And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his mind was turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice; 3 Ki. 11:9
For when David was in Edom, and Joab, the general of the army, was gone up to bury them that were slain, and had killed every male in Edom, 3 Ki. 11:15
Then Adad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father's servants, with him, to go into Egypt: and Adad was then a little boy. 3 Ki. 11:17
And when Adad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab, the general of the army, was dead, he said to Pharao: Let me depart, that I may go to my own country. 3 Ki. 11:21
And he was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon: and this is the evil of Adad, and his hatred against Israel; and he reigned in Syria. 3 Ki. 11:25
Jeroboam also, the son of Nabat, an Ephrathite, of Sareda, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was named Sarua, a widow woman, lifted up his hand against the king. 3 Ki. 11:26
And Jeroboam was a valiant and mighty man: and Solomon seeing him a young man ingenious and industrious, made him chief over the tributes of all the house of Joseph. 3 Ki. 11:28
And Ahias taking his new garment, wherewith he was clad, divided it into twelve parts: 3 Ki. 11:30
Solomon, therefore, sought to kill Jeroboam: but he arose, and fled into Egypt, to Sesac, the king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon. 3 Ki. 11:40
And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David, his father; and Roboam, his son, reigned in his stead. 3 Ki. 11:43
But Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, who was yet in Egypt, a fugitive from the face of king Solomon, hearing of his death, returned out of Egypt. 3 Ki. 12:2
And he said to them: Go till the third day, and come to me again. And when the people was gone, 3 Ki. 12:5
And the king condescended not to the people: for the Lord was turned away from him, to make good his word, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias, the Silonite, to Jeroboam, the son of Nabat. 3 Ki. 12:15
Then king Roboam sent Aduram, who was over the tribute: and all Israel stoned him, and he died. Wherefore king Roboam made haste to get him up into his chariot, and he fled to Jerusalem: 3 Ki. 12:18
And it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they gathered an assembly, and sent and called him, and made him king over all Israel, and there was none that followed the house of David but the tribe of Juda only. 3 Ki. 12:20
And he appointed a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, after the manner of the feast that was celebrated in Juda. And going up to the altar, he did in like manner in Bethel, to sacrifice to the calves, which he had made: and he placed in Bethel priests of the high places, which he had made. 3 Ki. 12:32
¤ And behold there came a man of God out of Juda, by the word of the Lord, to Bethel, when Jeroboam was standing upon the altar, and burning incense. 3 Ki. 13:1
And when the king had heard the word of the man of God, which he had cried out against the altar in Bethel, he stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying: Lay hold on him. And his hand which he stretched forth against him, withered: and he was not able to draw it back again to him. 3 Ki. 13:4
The altar also was rent, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given before in the word of the Lord. 3 Ki. 13:5
And the king said to the man of God: Entreat the face of the Lord thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me. And the man of God besought the face of the Lord, and the king's hand was restored to him, and it became as it was before. 3 Ki. 13:6
For so it was enjoined me by the word of the Lord commanding me: Thou shalt not eat bread, nor drink water, nor return by the same way that thou camest. 3 Ki. 13:9
And when he was gone, a lion found him in the way, and killed him, and his body was cast in the way: and the ass stood by him, and the lion stood by the dead body. 3 Ki. 13:24
And when that prophet, who had brought him back out of the way, heard of it, he said: It is the man of God, that was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord, and the Lord hath delivered him to the lion, and he hath torn him, and killed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him. 3 Ki. 13:26
And he was gone, he found the dead body cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the carcass: the lion had not eaten of the dead body, nor hurt the ass. 3 Ki. 13:28
After these words, Jeroboam came not back from his wicked way: but on the contrary, he made of the meanest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he filled his hand, and he was made a priest of the high places. 3 Ki. 13:33
And for this cause did the house of Jeroboam sin, and was cut off, and destroyed from the face of the earth. 3 Ki. 13:34
And the Lord said to Ahias: Behold the wife of Jeroboam cometh in, to consult thee concerning her son, that is sick: thus and thus shalt thou speak to her. So when she was coming in, and made as if she were another woman, 3 Ki. 14:5
And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to thee, and thou hast not been as my servant, David, who kept my commandments, and followed me with all his heart, doing that which was well pleasing in my sight: 3 Ki. 14:8
And the wife of Jeroboam arose, and departed, and came to Thersa: and when she was coming in to the threshold of the house, the child died, 3 Ki. 14:17
And Roboam, the son of Solomon, reigned in Juda: Roboam was one and forty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of Israel to put his name there. And his mother's name was Naama, an Ammonitess. 3 Ki. 14:21
And when the king went into the house of the Lord, they whose office it was to go before him, carried them: and afterwards they brought them back to the armoury of the shieldbearers. 3 Ki. 14:28
And there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam always. 3 Ki. 14:30
And Roboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with them, in the city of David: and his mother's name was Naama, an Ammonitess: and Abiam, his son, reigned in his stead. 3 Ki. 14:31
He reigned three years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Maacha, the daughter of Abessalom. 3 Ki. 15:2
And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David, his father. 3 Ki. 15:3
Because David had done that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, and had not turned aside from any thing that he commanded him, all the days of his life, except the matter of Urias, the Hethite. 3 Ki. 15:5
But there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam all the time of his life. 3 Ki. 15:6
And the rest of the words of Abiam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? And there was war between Abiam and Jeroboam. 3 Ki. 15:7
And he reigned one and forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacha, the daughter of Abessalom. 3 Ki. 15:10
And Asa did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as did David, his father: 3 Ki. 15:11
But the high places he did not take away. Nevertheless, the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord all his days: 3 Ki. 15:14
And there was war between Asa, and Baasa, king of Israel, all their days. 3 Ki. 15:16
But the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his strength, and all that he did, and the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet. 3 Ki. 15:23
And he slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David, his father. And Josaphat, his son, reigned in his place. 3 Ki. 15:24
And when he was king, he cut off all the house of Jeroboam: he left not so much as one soul of his seed, till he had utterly destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias, the Silonite: 3 Ki. 15:29
And there was war between Asa and Baasa, the king of Israel, all their days. 3 Ki. 15:32
So Baasa slept with his fathers, and was buried in Thersa: and Ela, his son, reigned in his stead. 3 Ki. 16:6
And his servant Zambri, who was captain of half the horsemen, rebelled against him: now Ela was drinking in Thersa, and drunk in the house of Arsa, the governor of Thersa. 3 Ki. 16:9
And when he was king, and sat upon his throne, he slew all the house of Baasa, and he left not one thereof to piss against a wall and all his kinsfolks and friends. 3 Ki. 16:11
In the seven and twentieth year of Asa, king of Juda, Zambri reigned seven days in Thersa: now the army was besieging Gebbethon, a city of the Philistines. 3 Ki. 16:15
And when they heard that Zambri had rebelled, and slain the king, all Israel made Amri their king, who was general over Israel in the camp that day. 3 Ki. 16:16
And Zambri, seeing that the city was about to be taken, went into the palace, and burnt himself with the king's house: and he died 3 Ki. 16:18
And Amri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, and Achab, his son, reigned in his stead. 3 Ki. 16:28
Nor was it enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nabat: but he also took to wife Jezabel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Sidonians. And he went, and served Baal, and adored him. 3 Ki. 16:31
But after some time the torrent was dried up: for it had not rained upon the earth. 3 Ki. 17:7
He arose, and went to Sarephta. And when he was come to the gate of the city, he saw the widow woman gathering sticks, and he called her, and said to her: Give me a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. 3 Ki. 17:10
And when she was going to fetch it, he called after her, saying: Bring me also, I beseech thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand. 3 Ki. 17:11
The pot of meal wasted not, and the cruise of oil was not diminished according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke in the hand of Elias. 3 Ki. 17:16
And it came to pass after this, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick, and the sickness was very grievous, so that there was no breath left in him. 3 Ki. 17:17
And Elias went to shew himself to Achab, and there was a grievous famine in Samaria. 3 Ki. 18:2
And as Abdias was in the way, Elias met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said: Art thou my lord Elias? 3 Ki. 18:7
And they took the bullock, which he gave them, and dressed it: and they called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying: O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered: and they leaped over the altar that they had made. 3 Ki. 18:26
And when it was now noon, Elias jested at them, saying: Cry with a louder voice: for he is a god; and perhaps he is talking, or is in an inn, or on a journey; or perhaps he is asleep, and must be awaked. 3 Ki. 18:27
And after midday was past, and while they were prophesying, the time was come of offering sacrifice, and there was no voice heard, nor did any one answer, nor regard them as they prayed. 3 Ki. 18:29
Elias said to all the people: Come ye unto me. And the people coming near unto him, he repaired the altar of the Lord, that was broken down: 3 Ki. 18:30
And the water run round about the altar, and the trench was filled with water. 3 Ki. 18:35
And when it was now time to offer the holocaust, Elias, the prophet, came near and said: O Lord God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Israel, shew this day that thou art the God of Israel, and I thy servant, and that according to thy commandment I have done all these things. 3 Ki. 18:36
Then the fire of the Lord fell, and consumed the holocaust, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. 3 Ki. 18:38
And the hand of the Lord was upon Elias, and he girded up his loins, and ran before Achab, till he came to Jezrahel. 3 Ki. 18:46
Then Elias was afraid, and rising up, he went whithersoever he had a mind: and he came to Bersabee of Juda, and left his servant there, 3 Ki. 19:3
And he went forward, one day's journey into the desert. And when he was there, and sat under a juniper tree, he requested for his soul that he might die, and said: It is enough for me, Lord; take away my soul: for I am no better than my fathers. 3 Ki. 19:4
He looked, and behold there was at his head a hearth cake, and a vessel of water: and he ate and drank, and he fell asleep again. 3 Ki. 19:6
And when he was come thither, he abode in a cave, and behold the word of the Lord came unto him, and he said to him: What dost thou here, Elias? 3 Ki. 19:9
And Elias departing from thence, found Eliseus, the son of Saphat, ploughing with twelve yoke of oxen: and he was one of them that were ploughing with, twelve yoke of oxen: and when Elias came up to him, he cast his mantle upon him. 3 Ki. 19:19
And he forthwith left the oxen, and ran after Elias, and said: Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said to him: Go, and return back: for that which was my part, I have done to thee. 3 Ki. 19:20
And they went out at noon. But Benadad was drinking himself drunk in his pavilion, and the two and thirty kings with him, who were come to help him. 3 Ki. 20:16
And both sides set their armies in array one against the other seven days, and on the seventh day the battle was fought: and the children of Israel slew, of the Syrians, a hundred thousand footmen in one day. 3 Ki. 20:29
And they that remained fled to Aphec, into the city: and the wall fell upon seven and twenty thousand men, that were left. And Benadad fleeing, went into the city, into a chamber that was within a chamber. 3 Ki. 20:30
Then he said to him: Because thou wouldst not hearken to the word of the Lord, behold thou shalt depart from me, and a lion shall slay thee. And when he was gone a little from him, a lion found him, and slew him. 3 Ki. 20:36
And as the king passed by, he cried to the king, and said: Thy servant went out to fight hand to hand: and when a certain man was run away, one brought him to me, and said: Keep this man: and if he shall slip away, thy life shall be for his life, or thou shalt pay a talent of silver. 3 Ki. 20:39
And whilst I, in a hurry, turned this way and that, on a sudden he was not to be seen. And the king of Israel said to him: This is thy judgment, which thyself hast decreed. 3 Ki. 20:40
But he forthwith wiped off the dust from his face, and the king of Israel knew him, that he was one of the prophets. 3 Ki. 20:41
¤ And after these things, Naboth the Jezrahelite, who was in Jezrahel, had at that time a vineyard, near the palace of Achab, king of Samaria. 3 Ki. 21:1
And this was the tenor of the letters: Proclaim a fast, and make Naboth sit among the chief of the people; 3 Ki. 21:9
And the men of his city, the ancients and nobles, that dwelt with him in the city, did as Jezabel had commanded them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them; 3 Ki. 21:11
And it came to pass, when Jezabel heard that Naboth was stoned, and dead, that she said to Achab: Arise, and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth, the Jezrahelite, who would not agree with thee, and give it thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead. 3 Ki. 21:15
And when Achab heard this, to wit, that Naboth was dead, he arose, and went down to the vineyard of Naboth, the Jezrahelite, to take possession of it. 3 Ki. 21:16
Now, there was not such another as Achab, who was sold to do evil in the sight of the Lord: for his wife, Jezabel, set him on, 3 Ki. 21:25
So when the captains of the chariots saw Josaphat, they suspected that he was the king of Israel, and making a violent assault, they fought against him: and Josaphat cried out. 3 Ki. 22:32
And the captains of the chariots perceived that he was not the king of Israel, and they turned away from him. 3 Ki. 22:33
And the battle was fought that day, and the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians, and he died in the evening: and the blood ran out of the wound into the midst of the chariot. 3 Ki. 22:35
And the king died, and was carried into Samaria: and they buried the king in Samaria. 3 Ki. 22:37
He was five and thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Azuba, the daughter of Salai. 3 Ki. 22:42
And he walked in all the way of Asa, his father, and he declined not from it: and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord. Nevertheless, he took not away the high places for as yet the people offered sacrifice, and burnt incense in the high places. 3 Ki. 22:43
And there was then no king appointed in Edom. 3 Ki. 22:47
And Josaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David, his father: and Joram, his son, reigned in his stead. 3 Ki. 22:50
And Ochozias fell through the lattices of his upper chamber, which he had in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, saying to them: Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Accaron, whether I shall recover of this my illness. 4 Ki. 1:2
But they answered him: A man met us, and said to us: Go, and return to the king, that sent you, and you shall say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel, that thou sendest to Beelzebub, the god of Accaron? Therefore thou shalt not come down from the bed, on which thou art gone up, but thou shalt surely die. 4 Ki. 1:6
And he said to them: What manner of man was he who met you, and spoke these words? 4 Ki. 1:7
And he sent to him a captain of fifty, and the fifty men that were under him. And he went up to him, and as he was sitting on the top of a hill, he said to him: Man of God, the king hath commanded that thou come down. 4 Ki. 1:9
Again he sent a third captain of fifty men, and the fifty that were with him. And when he was come, he fell upon his knees before Elias, and besought him, and said: Man of God, despise not my life, and the lives of thy servants that are with me. 4 Ki. 1:13
And he went up from thence to Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, little boys came out of the city and mocked him, saying: Go up, thou bald head, go up, thou bald head. 4 Ki. 2:23
And when Achab was dead, he broke the league which he had made with the king of Israel. 4 Ki. 3:5
So the king of Israel, and the king of Juda, and the king of Edom, went, and they fetched a compass of seven days' journey, and there was no water for the army, and for the beasts, that followed them. 4 Ki. 3:9
And it came to pass, in the morning, when the sacrifices used to be offered, that behold, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water. 4 Ki. 3:20
And they destroyed the cities: And they filled every goodly field, every man casting his stone: and they stopt up all the springs of waters: and cut down all the trees that bore fruit, so that brick walls only remained: and the city was beset by the slingers, and a great part thereof destroyed. 4 Ki. 3:25
Then he took his eldest son, that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall: and there was great indignation in Israel, and presently they departed from him, and returned into their own country. 4 Ki. 3:27
¤ Now a certain woman of the wives of the prophets, cried to Eliseus, saying: Thy servant, my husband, is dead, and thou knowest that thy servant was one that feared God, and behold the creditor is come to take away my two sons to serve him. 4 Ki. 4:1
And there was a day when Eliseus passed by Sunam: now there was a great woman there, who detained him to eat bread: and as he passed often that way, he turned into her house to eat bread. 4 Ki. 4:8
Now, there was a certain day, when he came, and turned into the chamber, and rested there. 4 Ki. 4:11
Then he bid him call her. And when she was called, and stood before the door, 4 Ki. 4:15

And one went out into the field to gather wild herbs: and he found something like a wild vine, and gathered of it wild gourds of the field, and filled his mantle, and coming back, he shred them into the pot of pottage; for he knew not what it was. 4 Ki. 4:39
But he said: Bring some meal. And when they had brought it, he cast it into the pot, and said: Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was now no bitterness in the pot. 4 Ki. 4:41
So he set it before them: and they ate, and there was left, according to the word of the Lord. 4 Ki. 4:44
¤ Naaman, general of the army, of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable: for by him the Lord gave deliverance to Syria: and he was a valiant man, and rich, but a leper. 4 Ki. 5:1
Naaman was angry, and went away, saying: I thought he would have come out to me, and standing, would have invoked the name of the Lord his God, and touched with his hand the place of the leprosy, and healed me. 4 Ki. 5:11
Are not the Abana, and the Pharphar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel, that I may wash in them, and be made clean? So as he turned, and was going away with indignation, 4 Ki. 5:12
Then he went down, and washed in the Jordan seven times, according to the word of the man of God; and his flesh was restored, like the flesh of a little child: and he was made clean. 4 Ki. 5:14
And when he was come, and now it was the evening, he took them from their hands, and laid them up in the house, and sent the men away, and they departed. 4 Ki. 5:24
But he said: Was not my heart present, when the man turned back, from his chariot, to meet thee? So now thou hast received money, and received garments, to buy oliveyards and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and men-servants, and maid-servants. 4 Ki. 5:26
And it happened, as one was felling some timber, that the head of the axe fell into the water: and he cried out, and said: Alas, alas, alas, my lord, for this same was borrowed. 4 Ki. 6:5

And Eliseus prayed, and said: Lord, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the servant, and he saw: and behold, the mountain was full of horses, and chariots of fire round about Eliseus. 4 Ki. 6:17

And Joiada, the high priest, took a chest, and bored a hole in the top, and set it by the altar at the right hand of them that came into the house of the Lord; and the priests that kept the doors, put therein all the money that was brought to the temple of the Lord. 4 Ki. 12:9
And when they saw that there was very much money in the chest, the king's scribe, and the high priest, came up, and poured it out, and counted the money that was found in the house of the Lord. 4 Ki. 12:10
And made the repairs: and to them that cut stones, and to buy timber, and stones to be hewed, that the repairs of the house of the Lord might be completely finished, and wheresoever there was need of expenses to uphold the house. 4 Ki. 12:12
But there were not made of the same money for the temple of the Lord, bowls, or fleshhooks, or censers, or trumpets, or any vessel of gold and silver, of the money that was brought into the temple of the Lord: 4 Ki. 12:13
For it was given to them that did the work, that the temple of the Lord might be repaired. 4 Ki. 12:14

And he did that which was right before the Lord, but yet not like David his father. He did according to all things that Joas his father, did: 4 Ki. 14:3
And Juda was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled every man to their dwellings. 4 Ki. 14:12

He restored the borders of Israel from the entrance of Emath, unto the sea of the wilderness, according to the word of the Lord, the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant, Jonas, the son of Amathi, the prophet, who was of Geth, which is in Opher. 4 Ki. 14:25

And the Lord struck the king, so that he was a leper unto the day of his death, and he dwelt in a free house apart: but Joatham, the king's son, governed the palace, and judged the people of the land. 4 Ki. 15:5
This was the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Jehu, saying: Thy children, to the fourth generation, shall sit upon the throne of Israel. And so it came to pass. 4 Ki. 15:12
And he did that which was evil before the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, all his days. 4 Ki. 15:18

And king Achaz took away the graven bases, and the laver that was upon them: and he took down the sea from the brazen oxen that held it up, and put it upon a pavement of stone. 4 Ki. 16:17
And Achaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David, and Ezechias, his son, reigned in his stead. 4 Ki. 16:20
For so it was that the children of Israel had sinned against the Lord, their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharao, king of Egypt; and they worshipped strange gods. 4 Ki. 17:7
And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and removed them from his sight, and there remained only the tribe of Juda. 4 Ki. 17:18

He trusted in the Lord, the God of Israel: so that after him there was none like him among all the kings of Juda, nor any of them that were before him: 4 Ki. 18:5
Wherefore the Lord also was with him, and in all things, to which he went forth, he behaved himself wisely. And he rebelled against the king of the Assyrians, and served him not. 4 Ki. 18:7
In the fourth year of king Ezechias, which was the seventh year of Osee, the son of Ela, king of Israel, Salmanasar, king of the Assyrians, came up to Samaria, and besieged it, 4 Ki. 18:9

And Eliacim, the son of Helcias, who was over the house, and Sobna, the scribe, and Joahe, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Ezechias, with their garments rent, and told him the words of Rabsaces. 4 Ki. 18:37

And as he was worshipping in the temple of Nesroch, his god, Adramelech and Sarasar, his sons, slew him with the sword, and they fled into the land of the Armenians, and Asarhaddon, his son, reigned in his stead. 4 Ki. 19:37
¤ In those days Ezechias was sick unto death: and Isaias, the son of Amos, the prophet, came and said to him: Thus saith the Lord God: Give charge concerning thy house, for thou shalt die, and not live. 4 Ki. 20:1

And Isaias said: Bring me a lump of figs. And when they had brought it, and laid it upon his boil, he was healed. 4 Ki. 20:7
And Ezechias rejoiced at their coming, and he shewed them the house of his aromatical spices, and the gold, and the silver, and divers precious odours, and ointments, and the house of his vessels, and all that he had in his treasures.

And he gathered together all the priests out of the cities of Juda: and he defiled the high places, where the priests offered sacrifice, from Gabaa to Bersabee: and he broke down the altars of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Josue, governor of the city, which was on the left hand of the gate of the city. 4 Ki. 23:8
And he took away the horses which the kings of Juda had given to the sun, at the entering in of the temple of the Lord, near the chamber of Nathanmelech the eunuch, who was in Pharurim: and he burnt the chariots of the sun with fire. 4 Ki. 23:11
Moreover, the altar also that was at Bethel, and the high place, which Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, had made: both the altar, and the high place, he broke down and burnt, and reduced to powder, and burnt the grove. 4 Ki. 23:15
Now there was no such a Phase kept from the days of the judges, who judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, and of the kings of Juda, 4 Ki. 23:22

And when Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who was in Egypt, (for he was fled thither from Solomon,) heard it, forthwith he returned. 2 Par. 10:2

And king Roboam sent Aduram, who was over the tributes, and the children of Israel stoned him, and he died: and king Roboam made haste to get up into his chariot, and fled into Jerusalem. 2 Par. 10:18

¤ And when the kingdom of Roboam was strengthened and fortified, he forsook the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him. 2 Par. 12:1
King Roboam therefore was strengthened in Jerusalem, and reigned: he was one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of Israel, to establish his name there: and the name of his mother was Naama an Ammonitess. 2 Par. 12:13
Now the acts of Roboam first and last are written in the books of Semeias the prophet, and of Addo the seer, and diligently recorded: and there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam all their days. 2 Par. 12:15
And Roboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David. And Abia his son reigned in his stead. 2 Par. 12:16
Three years he reigned in Jerusalem, and his mother's name was Michaia, the daughter of Uriel of Gabaa: and there was war between Abia and Jeroboam. 2 Par. 13:2
And Abia stood upon mount Semeron, which was in Ephraim, and said: Hear me, O Jeroboam, and all Israel: 2 Par. 13:4
And there were gathered to him vain men, and children of Belial: and they prevailed against Roboam the son of Solomon: for Roboam was unexperienced, and of a fearful heart, and could not resist them. 2 Par. 13:7
And Jeroboam was not able to resist any more, in the days of Abia: and the Lord struck him, and he died. 2 Par. 13:20
¤ And Abia slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead: in his days the land was quiet ten years. 2 Par. 14:1
And Asa did that which was good and pleasing in the sight of his God, and he destroyed the altars of foreign worship, and the high places. 2 Par. 14:2
He built also strong cities in Juda, for he was quiet, and there had no wars risen in his time, the Lord giving peace. 2 Par. 14:6
And he said to Juda: Let us build these cities, and compass them with walls, and fortify them with towers, and gates, and bars, while all is quiet from wars, because we have sought the Lord the God of our fathers, and he hath given us peace round about. So they built, and there was no hinderance in building. 2 Par. 14:7
And they took all the cities round about Gerara: for a great fear was come upon all men: and they pillaged the cities, and carried off much booty. 2 Par. 14:14
And when Asa had heard the words, and the prophecy of Azarias the son of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and took away the idols out of all the land of Juda, and out of Benjamin, and out of the cities of mount Ephraim, which he had taken, and he dedicated the altar of the Lord, which was before the porch of the Lord. 2 Par. 15:8
And he gathered together all Juda and Benjamin, and the strangers with them of Ephraim, and Manasses, and Simeon: for many were come over to him out of Israel, seeing that the Lord his God was with him. 2 Par. 15:9
But high places were left in Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days. 2 Par. 15:17
And there was no war unto the five and thirtieth year of the kingdom of Asa. 2 Par. 15:19
There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father, wherefore I have sent thee silver and gold, that thou mayst break thy league with Baasa king of Israel, and make him depart from me. 2 Par. 16:3
And Asa was angry with the seer, and commanded him to be put in prison: for he was greatly enraged because of this thing: and he put to death many of the people at that time. 2 Par. 16:10
And the Lord was with Josaphat, because he walked in the first ways of David his father: and trusted not in Baalim, 2 Par. 17:3
And after him was Amasias the son of Zechri, consecrated to the Lord, and with him were two hundred thousand valiant men. 2 Par. 17:16
After him was Eliada valiant in battle, and with him two hundred thousand armed with bow and shield. 2 Par. 17:17
After him also was Jozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready for war. 2 Par. 17:18
¤ Now Josaphat was rich and very glorious, and was joined by affinity to Achab. 2 Par. 18:1
For when the captains of the cavalry saw, that he was not the king of Israel, they left him. 2 Par. 18:32
And the fight was ended that day: but the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians until the evening, and died at the sunset. 2 Par. 18:34
And Jahaziel the son of Zacharias, the son of Banaias, the son of Jehiel, the son of Mathanias, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, was there, upon whom the spirit of the Lord came in the midst of the multitude, 2 Par. 20:14
And when Juda came to the watch tower, that looketh toward the desert, they saw afar off all the country, for a great space, full of dead bodies, and that no one was left that could escape death. 2 Par. 20:24
Then Josaphat came, and all the people with him to take away the spoils of the dead, and they found among the dead bodies, stuff of various kinds, and garments, and most precious vessels: and they took them for themselves, insomuch that they could not carry all, nor in three days take away the spoils, the booty was so great. 2 Par. 20:25
And the kingdom of Josaphat was quiet, and God gave him peace round about. 2 Par. 20:30
And Josaphat reigned over Juda, and he was five and thirty years old, when he began to reign: and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: and the name of his mother was Azuba the daughter of Selahi. 2 Par. 20:31
And he was partner with him in making ships, to go to Tharsis: and they made the ships in Asiongaber. 2 Par. 20:36
¤ And Josaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David: and Joram his son reigned in his stead. 2 Par. 21:1
And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and pensions, with strong cities in Juda: but the kingdom he gave to Joram, because he was the eldest. 2 Par. 21:3
Joram was two and thirty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. 2 Par. 21:5
And he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, as the house of Achab had done: for his wife was a daughter of Achab, and he did evil in the sight of the Lord. 2 Par. 21:6
And there was a letter brought him from Eliseus the prophet, in which it was written: Thus saith the Lord the God of David thy father: Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Josaphat thy father nor in the ways of Asa king of Juda, 2 Par. 21:12
And they came up into the land of Juda, and wasted it, and they carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, his sons also, and his wives: so that there was no son left him but Joachaz, who was the youngest. 2 Par. 21:17
He was two and thirty years old when he began his reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he walked not rightly, and they buried him in the city of David: but not in the sepulchres of the kings. 2 Par. 21:20
Ochozias was forty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother was Athalia the daughter of Amri. 2 Par. 22:2
For it was the will of God against Ochozias that he should come to Joram: and when he was come should go out also against Jehu the son of Namsi, whom the Lord had anointed to destroy the house of Achab. 2 Par. 22:7
So when Jehu was rooting out the house of Achab, he found the princes of Juda, and the sons of the brethren of Ochozias, who served him, and he slew them. 2 Par. 22:8
And he sought for Ochozias himself, and took him lying hid in Samaria: and when he was brought to him, he killed him, and they buried him: because he was the son of Josaphat, who had sought the Lord with all his heart. And there was no more hope that any one should reign of the race of Ochozias. 2 Par. 22:9
For Athalia his mother, seeing that her son was dead, rose up, and killed all the royal family of the house of Joram. 2 Par. 22:10
But Josabeth the king's daughter took Joas the son of Ochozias, and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain. And she hid him with his nurse in a bedchamber: now Josabeth that hid him, was daughter of king Joram, wife of Joiada the high priest, and sister of Ochozias, and therefore Athalia did not kill him. 2 Par. 22:11
And he was with them hid in the house of God six years, during which Athalia reigned over the land. 2 Par. 22:12
And they laid hold on her by the neck: and when she was come within the horse gate of the palace, they killed her there. 2 Par. 23:15
He appointed also porters in the gates of the house of the Lord, that none who was unclean in any thing should enter in. 2 Par. 23:19
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet: but Athalia was slain with the sword. 2 Par. 23:21
¤ Joas was seven years old when he began to reign: and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Sebia of Bersabee. 2 Par. 24:1
And the king called Joiada the chief, and said to him: Why hast thou not taken care to oblige the Levites to bring in out of Juda and Jerusalem the money that was appointed by Moses the servant of the Lord for all the multitude of Israel to bring into the tabernacle of the testimony? 2 Par. 24:6
And all the princes, and all the people rejoiced: and going in they contributed and cast so much into the chest of the Lord, that it was filled. 2 Par. 24:10
And when it was time to bring the chest before the king by the hands of the Levites, (for they saw there was much money,) the king's scribe, and he whom the high priest had appointed went in: and they poured out the money that was in the chest: and they carried back the chest to its place: and thus they did from day to day, and there was gathered an immense sum of money. 2 Par. 24:11
And the workmen were diligent, and the breach of the walls was closed up by their hands, and they set up the house of the Lord in its former state, and made it stand firm. 2 Par. 24:13
But Joiada grew old and was full of days, and died when he was a hundred and thirty years old. 2 Par. 24:15
And after the death of Joiada, the princes of Juda went in, and worshipped the king: and he was soothed by their services and hearkened to them. 2 Par. 24:17
And when a year was come about, the army of Syria came up against him: and they came to Juda and Jerusalem, and killed all the princes of the people, and they sent all the spoils to the king of Damascus. 2 Par. 24:23
And concerning his sons, and the sum of money which was gathered under him, and the repairing the house of God, they are written more diligently in the book of kings: and Amasias his son reigned in his stead. 2 Par. 24:27
¤ Amasias was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem, the name of his mother was Joadan of Jerusalem. 2 Par. 25:1
And he did what was good in the sight of the Lord: but yet not with a perfect heart. 2 Par. 25:2
Amasias would not hearken to him, because it was the Lord's will that he should be delivered into the hands of enemies, because of the gods of Edom. 2 Par. 25:20
So Joas king of Israel went up, and they presented themselves to be seen by one another: and Amasias king of Juda was in Bethsames of Juda: 2 Par. 25:21
¤ And all the people of Juda took his son Ozias, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the room of Amasias his father. 2 Par. 26:1
Ozias was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Jechelia of Jerusalem. 2 Par. 26:3
And he did that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Amasias his father had done. 2 Par. 26:4
And the Ammonites gave gifts to Ozias: and his name was spread abroad even to the entrance of Egypt for his frequent victories. 2 Par. 26:8
And he built towers in the wilderness, and dug many cisterns, for he had much cattle both in the plains, and in the waste of the desert: he had also vineyards and dressers of vines in the mountains, and in Carmel: for he was a man that loved husbandry. 2 Par. 26:10
And the army of his fighting men, that went out to war, was under the hand of Jehiel the scribe, and Maasias the doctor, and under the hand of Henanias, who was one of the king's captains. 2 Par. 26:11
But when he was made strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction, and he neglected the Lord his God: and going into the temple of the Lord, he had a mind to burn incense upon the altar of incense. 2 Par. 26:16
And Ozias was angry, and holding in his hand the censer to burn incense, threatened the priests. And presently there rose a leprosy in his forehead before the priests, in the house of the Lord at the altar of incense. 2 Par. 26:19
And Ozias the king was a leper unto the day of his death, and he dwelt in a house apart being full of the leprosy, for which he had been cast out of the house of the Lord. And Joatham his son governed the king's house, and judged the people of the land. 2 Par. 26:21
And Ozias slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the field of the royal sepulchres, because he was a leper: and Joatham his son reigned in his stead. 2 Par. 26:23
¤ Joatham was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Jerusa the daughter of Sadoc. 2 Par. 27:1
And he did that which was right before the Lord, according to all that Ozias his father had done, only that he entered not into the temple of the Lord, and the people still transgressed. 2 Par. 27:2
And Joatham was strengthened, because he had his way directed before the Lord his God. 2 Par. 27:6
He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. 2 Par. 27:8
¤ Achaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: he did not that which was right in the sight of the Lord as David his father had done, 2 Par. 28:1
It was he that burnt incense in the valley of Benennom, and consecrated his sons in the fire according to the manner of the nations, which the Lord slew at the coming of the children of Israel. 2 Par. 28:3
And the Lord his God delivered him into the hands of the king of Syria, who defeated him, and took a great booty out of his kingdom, and carried it to Damascus: he was also delivered into the hands of the king of Israel, who overthrew him with a great slaughter. 2 Par. 28:5
At the same time Zechri a powerful man of Ephraim, slew Maasias the king's son, and Ezricam the governor of his house, and Elcana who was next to the king. 2 Par. 28:7
At that time there was a prophet of the Lord there, whose name was Oded: and he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them: Behold the Lord the God of your fathers being angry with Juda, hath delivered them into your hands, and you have butchered them cruelly, so that your cruelty hath reached up to heaven. 2 Par. 28:9
¤ Now Ezechias began to reign, when he was five and twenty years old, and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Abia, the daughter of Zacharias. 2 Par. 29:1
And he did that which was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, according to all that David his father had done. 2 Par. 29:2
And he set the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps according to the regulation of David the king, and of Gad the seer, and of Nathan the prophet: for it was the commandment of the Lord by the hand of his prophets. 2 Par. 29:25
And all the multitude adored, and the singers, and the trumpeters, were in their office till the holocaust was finished. 2 Par. 29:28
And when the oblation was ended, the king, and all that were with him bowed down and adored. 2 Par. 29:29
And the number of the holocausts which the multitude offered, was seventy bullocks, a hundred rams, and two hundred lambs. 2 Par. 29:32
But the priests were few, and were not enough to flay the holocausts: wherefore the Levites their brethren helped them, till the work was ended, and priests were sanctified, for the Levites are sanctified with an easier rite than the priests. 2 Par. 29:34
So there were many holocausts, and the fat of peace offerings, and the libations of holocausts: and the service of the house of the Lord was completed. 2 Par. 29:35
And Ezechias, and all the people rejoiced because the ministry of the Lord was accomplished. For the resolution of doing this thing was taken suddenly. 2 Par. 29:36
For they could not keep it in its time; because there were not priests enough sanctified, and the people was not as yet gathered together to Jerusalem. 2 Par. 30:3
But the hand of God was in Juda, to give them one heart to do the word of the Lord, according to the commandment of the king, and of the princes. 2 Par. 30:12
And they arose and destroyed the altars that were in Jerusalem, and took away all things in which incense was burnt to idols and cast them into the torrent Cedron. 2 Par. 30:14
And they stood in their order according to the disposition and law of Moses the man of God: but the priests received the blood which was to be poured out, from the hands of the Levites, 2 Par. 30:16
Because a great number was not sanctified: and therefore the Levites immolated the phase for them that came not in time to be sanctified to the Lord. 2 Par. 30:17
And the Lord heard him, and was merciful to the people. 2 Par. 30:20
For Ezechias the king of Juda had given to the multitude a thousand bullocks, and seven thousand sheep: and the princes had given the people a thousand bullocks, and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests was sanctified. 2 Par. 30:24
And there was a great solemnity in Jerusalem, such as had not been in that city since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel. 2 Par. 30:26
And the priests and the Levites rose up and blessed the people: and their voice was heard: and their prayer came to the holy dwelling place of heaven. 2 Par. 30:27
And the king's part was, that of his proper substance the holocaust should be offered always morning and evening, and on the sabbaths, and the new moons and the other solemnities, as it is written in the law of Moses. 2 Par. 31:3
Which when it was noised abroad in the ears of the people, the children of Israel offered in abundance the firstfruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey: and brought the tithe of all things which the ground bringeth forth. 2 Par. 31:5
They brought in faithfully both the firstfruits, and the tithes, and all they had vowed. And the overseer of them was Chonenias the Levite, and Semei his brother was the second, 2 Par. 31:12
But Core the son of Jemna the Levite, the porter of the east gate, was overseer of the things which were freely offered to the Lord, and of the firstfruits and the things dedicated for the holy of holies. 2 Par. 31:14
Besides the males from three years old and upward, to all that went into the temple of the Lord, and whatsoever there was need of in the ministry, and their offices according to their courses, day by day. 2 Par. 31:16
So Ezechias did all things which we have said in all Juda, and wrought that which was good, and right, and truth, before the Lord his God, 2 Par. 31:20
And when Ezechias saw that Sennacherib was come, and that the whole force of the war was turning against Jerusalem, 2 Par. 32:2
After this, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians sent his servants to Jerusalem, (for he with all his army was besieging Lachis,) to Ezechias king of Juda, and to all the people that were in the city, saying: 2 Par. 32:9
And the Lord sent an angel, who cut off all the stout men and the warriors, and the captains of the army of the king of the Assyrians: and he returned with disgrace into his own country. And when he was come into the house of his god, his sons that came out of his bowels, slew him with the sword. 2 Par. 32:21
Many also brought victims, and sacrifices to the Lord to Jerusalem, and presents to Ezechias king of Juda: and he was magnified thenceforth in the sight of all nations. 2 Par. 32:23
In those days Ezechias was sick even to death, and he prayed to the Lord: and he heard him, and gave him a sign. 2 Par. 32:24
But he did not render again according to the benefits which he had received, for his heart was lifted up: and wrath was enkindled against him, and against Juda and Jerusalem. 2 Par. 32:25
And Ezechias was rich, and very glorious, and he gathered himself great treasures of silver and of gold, and of precious stones, of spices, and of arms, of all kinds, and of vessels of great price. 2 Par. 32:27
This same Ezechias was, he that stopped the upper source of the waters of Gihon, and turned them away underneath toward the west of the city of David: in all his works he did prosperously what he would. 2 Par. 32:30
¤ Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. 2 Par. 33:1
And after that he was in distress he prayed to the Lord his God: and did penance exceedingly before the God of his fathers. 2 Par. 33:12
And he entreated him, and besought him earnestly: and he heard his prayer, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom, and Manasses knew that the Lord was God. 2 Par. 33:13
Amon was two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. 2 Par. 33:21
¤ Josias was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one and thirty years in Jerusalem. 2 Par. 34:1
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of David his father: he declined not, neither to the right hand, nor to the left. 2 Par. 34:2
And in the eighth year of his reign, when he was yet a boy, he began to seek the God of his father David: and in the twelfth year after he began to reign, he cleansed Juda and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the idols, and the graven things. 2 Par. 34:3
Which they delivered into the hands of them that were over the workmen in the house of the Lord, to repair the temple, and mend all that was weak. 2 Par. 34:10
They have gathered together the silver that was found in the house of the Lord: and it is given to the overseers of the artificers, and of the workmen, for divers works. 2 Par. 34:17
And thy heart was softened, and thou hast humbled thyself in the sight of God for the things that are spoken against this place, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and reverencing my face, hast rent thy garments, and wept before me: I also have heard thee, saith the Lord. 2 Par. 34:27
¤ And Josias kept a phase to the Lord in Jerusalem, and it was sacrificed on the fourteenth day of the first month. 2 Par. 35:1
And he spoke to the Levites, by whose instruction all Israel was sanctified to the Lord, saying: Put the ark in the sanctuary of the temple, which Solomon the son of David king of Israel built: for you shall carry it no more: but minister now to the Lord your God, and to his people Israel. 2 Par. 35:3
And the ministry was prepared, and the priests stood in their office: the Levites also in their companies, according to the king's commandment. 2 Par. 35:10
And the phase was immolated: and the priests sprinkled the blood with their hand, and the Levites flayed the holocausts: 2 Par. 35:11
So all the service of the Lord was duly accomplished that day, both in keeping the phase and offering holocausts upon the altar of the Lord, according to the commandment of king Josias. 2 Par. 35:16
There was no phase like to this in Israel, from the days of Samuel the prophet: neither did any of all the kings of Israel keep such a phase as Josias kept, with the priests, and the Levites, and all Juda, and Israel that were found, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 2 Par. 35:18
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josias was this phase celebrated. 2 Par. 35:19
And there he was wounded by the archers, and he said to his servants: Carry me out of the battle, for I am grievously wounded. 2 Par. 35:23
And they removed him from the chariot into another, that followed him after the manner of kings, and they carried him away to Jerusalem, and he died, and was buried in the monument of his fathers, and all Juda and Jerusalem mourned for him, 2 Par. 35:24
Now the rest of the acts of Josias and of his mercies, according to what was commanded by the law of the Lord: 2 Par. 35:26
Joachaz was three and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. 2 Par. 36:2
Joakim was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did evil before the Lord his God. 2 Par. 36:5
Joachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and he did evil in the sight of the Lord. 2 Par. 36:9
Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. 2 Par. 36:11
But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused the prophets, until the wrath of the Lord arose against his people, and there was no remedy. 2 Par. 36:16
And the enemies set fire to the house of God, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, burnt all the towers, and what soever was precious they destroyed. 2 Par. 36:19
Whosoever escaped the sword, was led into Babylon, and there served the king and his sons, till the reign of the king of Persia, 2 Par. 36:20
Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Juda and Benjamin, and the priests, and Levites, and every one whose spirit God had raised up, to go up to build the temple of the Lord, which was in Jerusalem. 1 Esd. 1:5
And of the children of the priests: the children of Hobia, the children of Accos, the children of Berzellai, who took a wife of the daughters of Berzellai, the Galaadite, and was called by their name: 1 Esd. 2:61
¤ And now the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel were in their cities: and the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem. 1 Esd. 3:1
And afterwards the continual holocaust, both on the new moons, and on all the solemnities of the Lord, that were consecrated, and on all in which a freewill offering was made to the Lord. 1 Esd. 3:5
From the first day of the seventh month they began to offer holocausts to the Lord: but the temple of God was not yet founded. 1 Esd. 3:6
So that one could not distinguish the voice of the shout of joy, from the noise of the weeping of the people: for one with another the people shouted with a loud shout, and the voice was heard afar off. 1 Esd. 3:13
And in the days of Artaxerxes, Beselam, Mithridates, and Thabeel, and the rest that were in the council wrote to Artaxerxes king of the Persians: and the letter of accusation was written in Syrian, and was read in the Syrian tongue. 1 Esd. 4:7
That search may be made in the books of the histories of thy fathers, and thou shalt find written in the records: and shalt know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful to the kings and provinces, and that wars were raised therein of old time: for which cause also the city was destroyed. 1 Esd. 4:15
Now the copy of the edict of king Artaxerxes was read before Reum Beelteem, and Samsai the scribe, and their counsellors: and they went up in haste to Jerusalem to the Jews, and hindered them with arm and power. 1 Esd. 4:23
Then the work of the house of the Lord in Jerusalem was interrupted, and ceased till the second year of the reign of Darius king of the Persians. 1 Esd. 4:24
And at the same time came to them Thathanai, who was governor beyond the river, and Stharbuzanai, and their counsellors: and said thus to them: Who hath given you counsel to build this house, and to repair the walls thereof? 1 Esd. 5:3
But the eye of their God was upon the ancients of the Jews, and they could not hinder them. And it was agreed that the matter should be referred to Darius, and then they should give satisfaction concerning that accusation. 1 Esd. 5:5
The letter which they sent him, was written thus: To Darius the king all peace. 1 Esd. 5:7
And they answered us in these words, saying: We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we are building a temple that was built these many years ago, and which a great king of Israel built and set up. 1 Esd. 5:11
And the vessels also of gold and silver of the temple of God, which Nabuchodonosor had taken out of the temple, that was in Jerusalem, and had brought them to the temple of Babylon, king Cyrus brought out of the temple of Babylon, and they were delivered to one Sassabasar, whom also he appointed governor, 1 Esd. 5:14
And there was found in Ecbatana, which is a castle in the province of Media, a book in which this record was written. 1 Esd. 6:2
And they were finishing this house of God, until the third day of the month of Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of king Darius. 1 Esd. 6:15
This Esdras went up from Babylon, and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which the Lord God had given to Israel: and the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of the Lord his God upon him. 1 Esd. 7:6
And hath inclined his mercy toward me before the king and his counsellors, and all the mighty princes of the king: and I being strengthened by the hand of the Lord my God, which was upon me, gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with me. 1 Esd. 7:28
For I was ashamed to ask the king for aid and for horsemen, to defend us from the enemy in the way: because we had said to the king: The hand of our God is upon all them that seek him in goodness: and his power and strength, and wrath upon all them that forsake him. 1 Esd. 8:22
Then we set forward from the river Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month to go to Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way. 1 Esd. 8:31
And on the fourth day the silver and the gold, and the vessels were weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Urias the priest, and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinees, and with them Jozabad the son of Josue, and Noadaia the son of Benoi, Levites. 1 Esd. 8:33
According to the number and weight of everything: and all the weight was written at that time. 1 Esd. 8:34
¤ Now when Esdras was thus praying, and beseeching, and weeping, and lying before the temple of God, there was gathered to him of Israel an exceeding great assembly of men and women and children, and the people wept with much lamentation. 1 Esd. 10:1
And proclamation was made in Juda and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should assemble together into Jerusalem. 1 Esd. 10:7
‡ ¤ The words of Nehemias the son of Helchias. And it came to pass in the month of Casleu, in the twentieth year, as I was in the castle of Susa, 2 Esd. 1:1
I beseech thee, O Lord, let thy ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants who desire to fear thy name: and direct thy servant this day, and give him mercy before this man. For I was the king's cupbearer. 2 Esd. 1:11
¤ And it came to pass in the month of Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king: that wine was before him, and I took up the wine, and gave it to the king: and I was as one languishing away before his face. 2 Esd. 2:1
And the king said to me: Why is thy countenance sad, seeing thou dost not appear to be sick? this is not without cause, but some evil, I know not what, is in thy heart. And I was seized with an exceeding great fear: 2 Esd. 2:2
And Sanaballat the Horonite, and Tobias the servant, the Ammonite, heard it, and it grieved them exceedingly, that a man was come, who sought the prosperity of the children of Israel. 2 Esd. 2:10
And I came to Jerusalem, and was there three days. 2 Esd. 2:11
And I arose in the night, I and some few men with me, and I told not any man what God had put in my heart to do in Jerusalem, and there was no beast with me, but the beast that I rode upon. 2 Esd. 2:12
And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, and before the dragon fountain, and to the dung gate, and I viewed the wall of Jerusalem which was broken down, and the gates thereof which were consumed with fire. 2 Esd. 2:13
And I passed to the gate of the fountain, and to the king's aqueduct, and there was no place for the beast on which I rode to pass. 2 Esd. 2:14
And I shewed them how the hand of my God was good with me, and the king's words, which he had spoken to me, and I said: Let us rise up, and build. And their hands were strengthened in good. 2 Esd. 2:18
And next to them built Meltias the Gabaonite, and Jadon the Meronathite, the men of Gabaon and Maspha, for the governor that was in the country beyond the river. 2 Esd. 3:7
After him built Nehemias the son of Azboc, lord of half the street of Bethsur, as far as over against the sepulchre of David, and to the pool, that was built with great labour, and to the house of the mighty. 2 Esd. 3:16
¤ And it came to pass, that when Sanaballat heard that we were building the wall he was angry: and being moved exceedingly he scoffed at the Jews. 2 Esd. 4:1
Tobias also the Ammonite who was by him said: Let them build: if a fox go up, he will leap over their stone wall. 2 Esd. 4:3
So we built the wall, and joined it all together unto the half thereof: and the heart of the people was excited to work. 2 Esd. 4:6
For every one of the builders was girded with a sword about his reins. And they built, and sounded with a trumpet by me. 2 Esd. 4:18
Now I and my brethren, and my servants, and the watchmen that followed me, did not put off our clothes: only every man stripped himself when he was to be washed. 2 Esd. 4:23
¤ Now there was a great cry of the people, and of their wives against their brethren the Jews. 2 Esd. 5:1
And I was exceedingly angry when I heard their cry according to these words. 2 Esd. 5:6
Moreover I shook my lap, and said: So may God shake every man that shall not accomplish this word, out of his house, and out of his labours, thus may he be shaken out, and become empty. And all the multitude said: Amen. And they praised God. And the people did according to what was said. 2 Esd. 5:13
And from the day, in which the king commanded me to be governor in the land of Juda, from the twentieth year even to the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king, for twelve years, I and my brethren did not eat the yearly allowance that was due to the governors. 2 Esd. 5:14
And there was prepared for me day by day one ox, and six choice rams, besides fowls, and once in ten days I gave store of divers wines, and many other things: yet I did not require my yearly allowance as governor: for the people were very much impoverished. 2 Esd. 5:18
¤ And it came to pass, when Sanaballat, and Tobias, and Gossem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had built the wall, and that there was no breach left in it, (though at that time I had not set up the doors in the gates,) 2 Esd. 6:1
But the wall was finished the five and twentieth day of the month of Elul, in two and fifty days. 2 Esd. 6:15
And it came to pass when all our enemies heard of it, that all nations which were round about us, were afraid, and were cast down within themselves, for they perceived that this work was the work of God. 2 Esd. 6:16
For there were many in Judea sworn to him, because he was the son in law of Sechenias the son of Area, and Johanan his son had taken to wife the daughter of Mosollam the son of Barachias. 2 Esd. 6:18
¤ Now after the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and numbered the porters and singing men, and Levites: 2 Esd. 7:1
And the city was very wide and great, and the people few in the midst thereof, and the houses were not built. 2 Esd. 7:4
But God had put in my heart, and I assembled the princes and magistrates, and common people, to number them: and I found a book of the number of them who came up at first and therein it was found written: 2 Esd. 7:5
The children of Saphatia, the children of Hatil, the children of Phochereth, who was born of Sabaim, the son of Amon. 2 Esd. 7:59
And of the priests, the children of Habia, the children of Accos, the children of Berzellai, who took a wife of the daughters of Berzellai the Galaadite, and he was called by their name. 2 Esd. 7:63
And that which the rest of the people gave, was twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand pounds of silver, and sixty-seven garments for priests. 2 Esd. 7:72
And he read it plainly in the street that was before the water gate, from the morning until midday, before the men, and the women, and all those that could understand: and the ears of all the people were attentive to the book. 2 Esd. 8:3
And Esdras opened the book before all the people: for he was above all the people: and when he had opened it, all the people stood. 2 Esd. 8:5
And they read in the book of the law of God distinctly and plainly to be understood: and they understood when it was read. 2 Esd. 8:8
And all the assembly of them that were returned from the captivity, made tabernacles, and dwelt in tabernacles: for since the days of Josue the son of Nun the children of Israel had not done so, until that day: and there was exceeding great joy. 2 Esd. 8:17
Forty years didst thou feed them in the desert, and nothing was wanting to them: their garments did not grow old, and their feet were not worn. 2 Esd. 9:21
And Joel the son of Zechri their ruler, and Judas the son of Senua was second over the city. 2 Esd. 11:9
And Mathania the son of Micha, the son of Zebedei, the son of Asaph, was the principal man to praise, and to give glory in prayer, and Becbecia, the second, one of his brethren, and Abda the son of Samua, the son of Galal, the son of Idithun. 2 Esd. 11:17
And the overseer of the Levites in Jerusalem, was Azzi the son of Bani, the son of Hasabia, the son of Mathania, the son of Micha. Of the sons of Asaph, were the singing men in the ministry of the house of God. 2 Esd. 11:22
For the king's commandment was concerning them, and an order among the singing men day by day. 2 Esd. 11:23
And Phathahia the son of Mesezebel of the children of Zara the son of Juda was at the hand of the king, in all matters concerning the people, 2 Esd. 11:24
And Maasia, and Semeia, and Eleazar, and Azzi, and Johanan, and Melchia, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sung loud, and Jezraia was their overseer: 2 Esd. 12:42
And they sacrificed on that day great sacrifices, and they rejoiced: for God had made them joyful with great joy: their wives also and their children rejoiced, and the joy of Jerusalem was heard afar off. 2 Esd. 12:43
They appointed also in that day men over the storehouses of the treasure, for the libations, and for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, that the rulers of the city might bring them in by them in honour of thanksgiving, for the priests and Levites: for Juda was joyful in the priests and Levites that assisted. 2 Esd. 12:44
¤ And on that day they read in the book of Moses in the hearing of the people: and therein was found written, that the Ammonites and the Moabites should not come in to the church of God for ever: 2 Esd. 13:1
And over this thing was Eliasib the priest, who was set over the treasury of the house of our God, and was near akin to Tobias. 2 Esd. 13:4
But in all this time I was not in Jerusalem, because in the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon, I went to the king, and after certain days I asked the king: 2 Esd. 13:6
In those days I saw in Juda some treading the presses on the sabbath, and carrying sheaves, and lading asses with wine, and grapes, and figs, and all manner of burthens, and bringing them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day. And I charged them that they should sell on a day on which it was lawful to sell. 2 Esd. 13:15
Did not Solomon king of Israel sin in this kind of thing: and surely among many nations, there was not a king like him, and he was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: and yet women of other countries brought even him to sin. 2 Esd. 13:26
And one of the sons of Joiada the son of Eliasib the high priest, was son in law to Sanaballat the Horonite, and I drove him from me. 2 Esd. 13:28
When he was made captive in the days of Salmanasar king of the Assyrians, even in his captivity, forsook not the way of truth, Tob. 1:2
And when he was younger than any of the tribe of Nephtali, yet did he no childish thing in his work. Tob. 1:4
But when he was a man, he took to wife Anna of his own tribe, and had a son by her, whom he called after his own name, Tob. 1:9
And when by the captivity he with his wife and his son and all his tribe was come to the city of Ninive, Tob. 1:11
(When all ate of the meats of the Gentiles) he kept his soul and never was defiled with their meats. Tob. 1:12
And because he was mindful of the Lord with all his heart, God gave him favour in the sight of Salmanasar the king. Tob. 1:13
And when he was come to Rages a city of the Medes, and had ten talents of silver of that with which he had been honoured by the king: Tob. 1:16
And when amongst a great multitude of his kindred, he saw Gabelus in want, who was one of his tribe, taking a note of his hand he gave him the aforesaid sum of money. Tob. 1:17
Tobias daily went among all his kindred and comforted them, and distributed to every one as he was able, out of his goods: Tob. 1:19
He fed the hungry, and gave clothes to the naked, and was careful to bury the dead, and they that were slain. Tob. 1:20
And when king Sennacherib was come back, fleeing from Judea by reason of the slaughter that God had made about him for his blasphemy, and being angry slew many of the children of Israel, Tobias buried their bodies. Tob. 1:21
But when it was told the king, he commanded him to be slain, and took away all his substance. Tob. 1:22
But after forty-five days, the king was killed by his own sons. Tob. 1:24
And Tobias returned to his house, and all his substance was restored to him. Tob. 1:25
¤ But after this, when there was a festival of the Lord, and a good dinner was prepared in Tobias's house, Tob. 2:1
And taking it up carried it privately to his house, that after the sun was down, he might bury him cautiously. Tob. 2:4
So when the sun was down, he went and buried him. Tob. 2:7
Now all his neighbours blamed him, saying: once already commandment was given for thee to be slain because of this matter, and thou didst scarce escape the sentence of death, and dost thou again bury the dead? Tob. 2:8
And as he was sleeping, hot dung out of a swallow's nest fell upon his eyes, and he was made blind. Tob. 2:11
And it came to pass on the third day when she was making an end of her prayer, blessing the Lord, Tob. 3:12
And either I was unworthy of them, or they perhaps were not worthy of me: because perhaps thou hast kept me for another man, Tob. 3:19
And the holy angel of the Lord, Raphael was sent to heal them both, whose prayers at one time were rehearsed in the sight of the Lord. Tob. 3:25
¤ Therefore when Tobias thought that his prayer was heard that he might die, he called to him Tobias his son, Tob. 4:1
And not knowing that he was an angel of God, he saluted him, and said: From whence art thou, good young man? Tob. 5:6
For our poverty was sufficient for us, that we might account it as riches, that we saw our son. Tob. 5:25
And when he was speaking many good things of him, the angel said to Raguel: Tobias concerning whom thou inquirest is this young man's father. Tob. 7:6
Now when Raguel heard this he was afraid, knowing what had happened to those seven husbands, that went in unto her: and he began to fear lest it might happen to him also in like manner: and as he was in suspense, and gave no answer to his petition, Tob. 7:11
And immediately Raguel commanded his servants, to fill up the pit they had made, before it was day. Tob. 8:20
And when he was come into Raguel's house he found Tobias sitting at the table: and he leaped up, and they kissed each other: and Gabelus wept, and blessed God, Tob. 9:8
¤ But as Tobias made longer stay upon occasion of the marriage, Tobias his father was solicitous, saying: Why thinkest thou doth my son tarry, or why is he detained there? Tob. 10:1
But his mother wept and was quite disconsolate, and said: Woe, woe is me, my son; why did we send thee to go to a strange country, the light of our eyes, the staff of our old age, the comfort of our life, the hope of our posterity? Tob. 10:4
And while she watched his coming from that place, she saw him afar off, and presently perceived it was her son coming: and returning she told her husband, saying: Behold thy son cometh. Tob. 11:6
And his father that was blind, rising up, began to run stumbling with his feet: and giving a servant his hand, went to meet his son. Tob. 11:10
And because thou wast acceptable to God, it was necessary that temptation should prove thee. Tob. 12:13
For when I was with you, I was there by the will of God: bless ye him, and sing praises to him. Tob. 12:18
And when he had said these things, he was taken from their sight, and they could see him no more. Tob. 12:21
¤ And the words of Tobias were ended. And after Tobias was restored to his sight, he lived two and forty years, and saw the children of his grandchildren. Tob. 14:1
And after he had lived a hundred and two years, he was buried honourably in Ninive. Tob. 14:2
For he was six and fifty years old when he lost the sight of his eyes, and sixty when he recovered it again. Tob. 14:3
And the rest of his life was in joy, and with great increase of the fear of God he departed in peace. Tob. 14:4
Of stones squared and hewed: he made the walls thereof seventy cubits broad, and thirty cubits high, and the towers thereof he made a hundred cubits high. But on the square of them, each side was extended the space of twenty feet. Jud. 1:2
Then was the kingdom of Nabuchodonosor exalted, and his heart was elevated: and he sent to all that dwelt in Cilicia and Damascus, and Libanus, Jud. 1:7
¤ In the thirteenth year of the reign of Nabuchodonosor, the two and twentieth day of the first month, the word was given out in the house of Nabuchodonosor king of the Assyrians, that he would revenge himself. Jud. 2:1
And Eliachim the priest wrote to all that were over against Esdrelon, which faceth the great plain near Dothain, and to all by whom there might be a passage of way, that they should take possession of the ascents of the mountains, by which there might be any way to Jerusalem, and should keep watch where the way was narrow between the mountains. Jud. 4:5
¤ And it was told Holofernes the general of the army of the Assyrians, that the children of Israel prepared themselves to resist, and had shut up the ways of the mountains. Jud. 5:1
And he was transported with exceeding great fury and indignation, and he called all the princes of Moab and the leaders of Ammon. Jud. 5:2
They worshipped one God of heaven, who also commanded them to depart from thence, and to dwell in Charan. And when there was a famine over all the land, they went down into Egypt, and there for four hundred years were so multiplied, that the army of them could not be numbered. Jud. 5:9
And when an innumerable army of the Egyptians pursued after them in that place, they were so overwhelmed with the waters, that there was not one left, to tell what had happened to posterity. Jud. 5:13
And there was no one that triumphed over this people, but when they departed from the worship of the Lord their God. Jud. 5:17
And as long as they sinned not in the sight of their God, it was well with them: for their God hateth iniquity. Jud. 5:21
And the children of Israel coming down from Bethulia, came to him, and loosing him they brought him to Bethulia, and setting him in the midst of the people, asked him what was the matter that the Assyrians had left him bound. Jud. 6:10
So when their weeping was ended, and the people's prayer, in which they continued all the day, was concluded, they comforted Achior, Jud. 6:16
Then Ozias, after the assembly was broken up, received him into his house, and made him a great supper. Jud. 6:19
And all the ancients were invited, and they refreshed themselves together after their fast was over. Jud. 6:20
And when they had kept this watch for full twenty days, the cisterns, and the reserve of waters failed among all the inhabitants of Bethulia, so that there was not within the city, enough to satisfy them, no not for one day, for water was daily given out to the people by measure. Jud. 7:11
And when they had said these things, there was great weeping and lamentation of all in the assembly, and for many hours with one voice they cried to God, saying: Jud. 7:18
¤ Now it came to pass, when Judith a widow had heard these words, who was the daughter of Merari, the son of Idox, the son of Joseph, the son of Ozias, the son of Elai, the son of Jamnor, the son of Gedeon, the son of Raphaim, the son of Achitob, the son of Melchias, the son of Enan, the son of Nathanias, the son of Salathiel, the son of Simeon, the son of Ruben: Jud. 8:1
And her husband was Manasses, who died in the time of the barley harvest: Jud. 8:2
For he was standing over them that bound sheaves in the field; and the heat came upon his head, and he died in Bethulia his own city, and was buried there with his fathers. Jud. 8:3
And Judith his relict was a widow now three years and six months. Jud. 8:4
And she was exceedingly beautiful, and her husband left her great riches, and very many servants, and large possessions of herds of oxen, and flocks of sheep. Jud. 8:7
And she was greatly renowned among all, because she feared the Lord very much, neither was there any one that spoke an ill word of her. Jud. 8:8
They must remember how our father Abraham was tempted, and being proved by many tribulations, was made the friend of God. Jud. 8:22
And when she was come into his presence, forthwith Holofernes was caught by his eyes. Jud. 10:17
And Judith seeing Holofernes sitting under a canopy, which was woven of purple and gold, with emeralds and precious stones: Jud. 10:19
¤ Then Holofernes said to her: Be of good comfort, and fear not in thy heart: for I have never hurt a man that was willing to serve Nabuchodonosor the king. Jud. 11:1
And when she was going in, she desired that she might have liberty to go out at night and before day to prayer, and to beseech the Lord. Jud. 12:5
And the heart of Holofernes was smitten, for he was burning with the desire of her. Jud. 12:16
And Holofernes was made merry on her occasion, and drank exceeding much wine, so much as he had never drunk in his life. Jud. 12:20
¤ And when it was grown late, his servants made haste to their lodgings, and Vagao shut the chamber doors, and went his way. Jud. 13:1
And Judith was alone in the chamber. Jud. 13:3
And when she had said this, she went to the pillar that was at his bed's head, and loosed his sword that hung tied upon it. Jud. 13:8
Then Achior seeing the power that the God of Israel had wrought, leaving the religion of the Gentiles, he believed God, and circumcised the flesh of his foreskin, and was joined to the people of Israel, with all the succession of his kindred until this present day. Jud. 14:6
Then Vagao going into his chamber, stood before the curtain, and made a clapping with his hands: for he thought that he was sleeping with Judith. Jud. 14:13
And there was a very great cry in the midst of their camp. Jud. 14:18
¤ And when all the army heard that Holofernes was beheaded, courage and counsel fled from them, and being seized with trembling and fear they thought only to save themselves by flight. Jud. 15:1
But they that returned conquerors to Bethulia, brought with them all things that were theirs, so that there was no numbering of their cattle, and beasts, and all their moveables, insomuch that from the least to the greatest all were made rich by their spoils. Jud. 15:8
And when she was come out to him, they all blessed her with one voice, saying: Thou art the glory of Jerusalem, thou art the joy of Israel, thou art the honour of our people: Jud. 15:10
And the people were joyful in the sight of the sanctuary, and for three months the joy of this victory was celebrated with Judith. Jud. 16:24
And after those days every man returned to his house, and Judith was made great in Bethulia, and she was most renowned in all the land of Israel. Jud. 16:25
And chastity was joined to her virtue, so that she knew no man all the days of her life, after the death of Manasses her husband. Jud. 16:26
And she abode in her husband's house a hundred and five years, and made her handmaid free, and she died, and was buried with her husband in Bethulia. Jud. 16:28
And all the time of her life there was none that troubled Israel, nor many years after her death. Jud. 16:30
Now he was of the number of the captives, whom Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away from Jerusalem with Jechonias king of Juda: Esther 11:4
And this was his dream: Behold there were voices, and tumults, and thunders, and earthquakes, and a disturbance upon the earth. Esther 11:5
And that was a day of darkness and danger, of tribulation and distress, and great fear upon the earth. Esther 11:8
And the nation of the just was troubled fearing their own evils, and was prepared for death. Esther 11:9
And when Mardochai had seen this, and arose out of his bed, he was thinking what God would do: and he kept it fixed in his mind, desirous to know what the dream should signify. Esther 11:12
But the king made a record of what was done: and Mardochai also committed the memory of the thing to writing. Esther 12:4
But Aman the son of Amadathi the Bugite was in great honour with the king, and sought to hurt Mardochai and his people, because of the two eunuchs of the king who were put to death. Esther 12:6
When he sat on the throne of his kingdom, the city Susan was the capital of his kingdom. Esther 1:2
And when the days of the feast were expired, he invited all the people that were found in Susan, from the greatest to the least: and commanded a feast to be made seven days in the court of the garden, and of the wood, which was planted by the care and the hand of the king. Esther 1:5
And there were hung up on every side sky coloured, and green, and violet hangings, fastened with cords of silk, and of purple, which were put into rings of ivory, and were held up with marble pillars. The beds also were of gold and silver, placed in order upon a floor paved with porphyry and white marble: which was embellished with painting of wonderful variety. Esther 1:6
And they that were invited, drank in golden cups, and the meats were brought in divers vessels one after another. Wine also in abundance and of the best was presented, as was worthy of a king's magnificence. Esther 1:7
Neither was there any one to compel them to drink that were not willing, but as the king had appointed, who set over every table one of his nobles, that every man might take what he would. Esther 1:8
Also Vasthi the queen made a feast for the women in the palace, where king Assuerus was used to dwell. Esther 1:9
Now on the seventh day, when the king was merry, and after very much drinking was well warmed with wine, he commanded Mauman, and Bazatha, and Harbona, and Bagatha, and Abgatha, and Zethar, and Charcas, the seven eunuchs that served in his presence, Esther 1:10
To bring in queen Vasthi before the king, with the crown set upon her head, to shew her beauty to all the people and the princes: for she was exceeding beautiful. Esther 1:11
Asked the wise men, who according to the custom of the kings, were always near his person, and all he did was by their counsel, who knew the laws, and judgments of their forefathers: Esther 1:13
¤ After this, when the wrath of king Assuerus was appeased, he remembered Vasthi, and what she had done and what she had suffered: Esther 2:1
There was a man in the city of Susan, a Jew, named Mardochai, the son of Jair, the son of Semei, the son of Cis, of the race of Jemini, Esther 2:5
And he had brought up his brother's daughter Edissa, who by another name was called Esther: now she had lost both her parents: and was exceeding fair and beautiful. And her father and mother being dead, Mardochai adopted her for his daughter. Esther 2:7
And when the king's ordinance was noised abroad, and according to his commandment many beautiful virgins were brought to Susan, and were delivered to Egeus the eunuch: Esther also among the rest of the maidens was delivered to him to be kept in the number of the women. Esther 2:8
Now when every virgin's turn came to go in to the king, after all had been done for setting them off to advantage, it was the twelfth month: so that for six months they were anointed with oil of myrrh, and for other six months they used certain perfumes and sweet spices. Esther 2:12
And she that went in at evening, came out in the morning, and from thence she was conducted to the second house, that was under the hand of Susagaz the eunuch, who had the charge over the king's concubines: neither could she return any more to the king, unless the king desired it, and had ordered her by name to come. Esther 2:14
And as the time came orderly about, the day was at hand, when Esther, the daughter of Abihail the brother of Mardochai, whom he had adopted for his daughter, was to go in to the king. But she sought not women's ornaments, but whatsoever Egeus the eunuch the keeper of the virgins had a mind, he gave her to adorn her. For she was exceeding fair, and her incredible beauty made her appear agreeable and amiable in the eyes of all. Esther 2:15
So she was brought to the chamber of king Assuerus the tenth month, which is called Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign. Esther 2:16
Neither had Esther as yet declared her country and people, according to his commandment. For whatsoever he commanded, Esther observed: and she did all things in the same manner as she was wont at that time when he brought her up a little one. Esther 2:20
It was inquired into, and found out: and they were both hanged on a gibbet. And it was put in the histories, and recorded in the chronicles before the king. Esther 2:23
¤ After these things, king Assuerus advanced Aman, the son of Amadathi, who was of the race of Agag: and he set his throne above all the princes that were with him. Esther 3:1
And when they were saying this often, and he would not hearken to them, they told Aman, desirous to know whether he would continue in his resolution: for he had told them that he was a Jew. Esther 3:4
Now when Aman had heard this, and had proved by experience that Mardochai did not bend his knee to him, nor worship him, he was exceeding angry. Esther 3:5
And he counted it nothing to lay his hands upon Mardochai alone: for he had heard that he was of the nation of the Jews, and he chose rather to destroy all the nation of the Jews that were in the kingdom of Assuerus. Esther 3:6
In the first month (which is called Nisan) in the twelfth year of the reign of Assuerus, the lot was cast into an urn, which in Hebrew is called Phur, before Aman, on what day and what month the nation of the Jews should be destroyed: and there came out the twelfth month, which is called Adar. Esther 3:7
¤ And this was the copy of the letter: Artaxerxes the great king who reigneth from India to Ethiopia, to the princes and governors of the hundred and twenty-seven provinces, that are subject to his empire, greeting. Esther 13:1
Whereas I reigned over many nations, and had brought all the world under my dominion, I was not willing to abuse the greatness of my power, but to govern my subjects with clemency and lenity that they might live quietly without any terror, and might enjoy peace, which is desired by all men, Esther 13:2
But when I asked my counsellors how this might be accomplished, one that excelled the rest in wisdom and fidelity, and was second after the king, Aman by name, Esther 13:3
Told me that there was a people scattered through the whole world, which used new laws, and acted against the customs of all nations, despised the commandments of kings, and violated by their opposition the concord of all nations. Esther 13:4
The couriers that were sent made haste to fulfil the king's commandment. And immediately the edict was hung up in Susan, the king and Aman feasting together, and all the Jews that were in the city weeping. Esther 3:15
And in all provinces, towns, and places, to which the king's cruel edict was come, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, wailing, and weeping, many using sackcloth and ashes for their bed. Esther 4:3
Then Esther's maids and her eunuchs went in, and told her. And when she heard it she was in a consternation and she sent a garment, to clothe him, and to take away the sackcloth: but he would not receive it. Esther 4:4
And Athach going out went to Mardochai, who was standing in the street of the city, before the palace gate: Esther 4:6
He gave him also a copy of the edict which was hanging up in Susan, that he should shew it to the queen, and admonish her to go in to the king, and to entreat him for her people. Esther 4:8
¤ And he commanded her (no doubt but he was Mardochai) to go to the king, and petition for her people, and for her country. Esther 15:1
Thou knowest all things, and thou knowest that it was not out of pride and contempt or any desire of glory, that I refused to worship the proud Aman, Esther 13:12
¤ Queen Esther also, fearing the danger that was at hand, had recourse to the Lord. Esther 14:1
And when she had laid away her royal apparel, she put on garments suitable for weeping and mourning: instead of divers precious ointments, she covered her head with ashes and dung, and she humbled her body with fasts: and all the places in which before she was accustomed to rejoice, she filled with her torn hair. Esther 14:2
And that thy handmaid hath never rejoiced, since I was brought hither unto this day but in thee, O Lord, the God of Abraham. Esther 14:18
So going in she passed through all the doors in order, and stood before the king, where he sat upon his royal throne, clothed with his royal robes, and glittering with gold, and precious stones, and he was terrible to behold. Esther 15:9
She answered: I saw thee, my lord, as an angel of God, and my heart was troubled for fear of thy majesty. Esther 15:16
And while she was speaking, she fell down again, and was almost in a swoon. Esther 15:18
But the king was troubled, and all his servants comforted her. Esther 15:19
So Aman went out that day joyful and merry. And when he saw Mardochai sitting before the gate of the palace, and that he not only did not rise up to honour him, but did not so much as move from the place where he sat, he was exceedingly angry: Esther 5:9
They came to that place where it was written, how Mardochai had discovered the treason of Bagathan and Thares the eunuchs, who sought to kill king Assuerus. Esther 6:2
And the king said immediately: Who is in the court? for Aman was coming in to the inner court of the king's house, to speak to the king, that he might order Mardochai to be hanged upon the gibbet, which was prepared for him. Esther 6:4
And when he was come in, he said to him: What ought to be done to the man whom the king is desirous to honour? But Aman thinking in his heart, and supposing that the king would honour no other but himself, Esther 6:6
And the king said to her again the second day, after he was warm with wine: What is thy petition, Esther, that it may be granted thee? and what wilt thou have done: although thou ask the half of my kingdom, thou shalt have it. Esther 7:2
And Esther said: It is this Aman that is our adversary and most wicked enemy. Aman hearing this was forthwith astonished, not being able to bear the countenance of the king and of the queen. Esther 7:6
But the king being angry rose up, and went from the place of the banquet into the garden set with trees. Aman also rose up to entreat Esther the queen for his life, for he understood that evil was prepared for him by the king. Esther 7:7
And when the king came back out of the garden set with trees, and entered into the place of the banquet, he found Aman was fallen upon the bed on which Esther lay, and he said: He will force the queen also in my presence, in my own house. The word was not yet gone out of the king's mouth, and immediately they covered his face. Esther 7:8
So Aman was hanged on the gibbet, which he had prepared for Mardochai: and the king's wrath ceased. Esther 7:10
¤ On that day king Assuerus gave the house of Aman, the Jews' enemy, to queen Esther, and Mardochai came in before the king. For Esther had confessed to him that he was her uncle. Esther 8:1
But he, as the manner was, held out the golden sceptre with his hand, which was the sign of clemency: and she arose up and stood before him, Esther 8:4
Write ye therefore to the Jews, as it pleaseth you in the king's name, and seal the letters with my ring. For this was the custom, that no man durst gainsay the letters which were sent in the king's name, and were sealed with his ring. Esther 8:8
Then the king's scribes and secretaries were called for (now it was the time of the third month which is called Siban) the three and twentieth day of the month, and letters were written, as Mardochai had a mind, to the Jews, and to the governors, and to the deputies, and to the judges, who were rulers over the hundred and twenty-seven provinces, from India even to Ethiopia: to province and province, to people and people, according to their languages and characters, and to the Jews, according as they could read and hear. Esther 8:9
And one day of revenge was appointed through all the provinces, to wit, the thirteenth of the twelfth month Adar. Esther 8:12
Now that you may more plainly understand what we say, Aman the son of Amadathi, a Macedonian both in mind and country, and having nothing of the Persian blood, but with his cruelty staining our goodness, was received being a stranger by us: Esther 16:10
And found our humanity so great towards him, that he was called our father, and was worshipped by all as the next man after the king: Esther 16:11
But he was so far puffed up with arrogancy, as to go about to deprive us of our kingdom and life. Esther 16:12
For with certain new and unheard of devices he hath sought the destruction of Mardochai, by whose fidelity and good services our life was saved, and of Esther the partner of our kingdom with all their nation: Esther 16:13
And are the children of the highest and the greatest, and the ever living God, by whose benefit the kingdom was given both to our fathers and to us, and is kept unto this day. Esther 16:16
And this was the content of the letter, that it should be notified in all lands and peoples that were subject to the empire of king Assuerus, that the Jews were ready to be revenged of their enemies. Esther 8:13
So the swift posts went out carrying the messages, and the king's edict was hung up in Susan. Esther 8:14
And Mardochai going forth out of the palace, and from the king's presence, shone in royal apparel, to wit, of violet and sky colour, wearing a golden crown on his head, and clothed with a cloak of silk and purple. And all the city rejoiced, and was glad. Esther 8:15
And in all peoples, cities, and provinces, whithersoever the king's commandments came, there was wonderful rejoicing, feasts and banquets, and keeping holy day: Insomuch that many of other nations and religion, joined themselves to their worship and ceremonies. For a great dread of the name of the Jews had fallen upon all. Esther 8:17
For they knew him to be prince of the palace, and to have great power: and the fame of his name increased daily, and was spread abroad through all men's mouths. Esther 9:4
And presently the number of them that were killed in Susan was brought to the king. Esther 9:11
And the king commanded that it should be so done. And forthwith the edict was hung up in Susan, and the ten sons of Aman were hanged. Esther 9:14
Now the thirteenth day of the month Adar was the first day with them all of the slaughter, and on the fourteenth day they left off. Which they ordained to be kept holy day, so that all times hereafter they should celebrate it with feasting, joy, and banquets. Esther 9:17
And since that time these days are called Phurim, that is, of lots: because Phur, that is, the lot, was cast into the urn. And all things that were done, are contained in the volume of this epistle, that is, of this book: Esther 9:26

I Ecclesiastes was king over Israel in Jerusalem, Eccl. 1:12
And I have given my heart to know prudence, and learning, and errors, and folly: and I have perceived that in these also there was labour, and vexation of spirit, Eccl. 1:17
¤ I said in my heart: I will go, and abound with delights, and enjoy good things. And I saw that this also was vanity. Eccl. 2:1
I thought in my heart, to withdraw my flesh from wine, that I might turn my mind to wisdom, and might avoid folly, till I might see what was profitable for the children of men: and what they ought to do under the sun, all the days of their life. Eccl. 2:3
And when I turned myself to all the works which my hands had wrought, and to the labours wherein I had laboured in vain, I saw in all things vanity, and vexation of mind, and that nothing was lasting under the sun. Eccl. 2:11
And I said in my heart: If the death of the fool and mine shall be one, what doth it avail me, that I have applied myself more to the study of wisdom? And speaking with my own mind, I perceived that this also was vanity. Eccl. 2:15
And therefore I was weary of my life, when I saw that all things under the sun are evil, and all vanity and vexation of spirit. Eccl. 2:17
And I have known that there was no better thing than to rejoice, and to do well in this life. Eccl. 3:12
Much more than it was: it is a great depth, who shall find it out? Eccl. 7:24
Therefore I commended mirth, because there was no good for a man under the sun, but to eat, and drink, and be merry, and that he should take nothing else with him of his labour in the days of his life, which God hath given him under the sun. Eccl. 8:15
A little city, and few men in it: there came against it a great king, and invested it, and built bulwarks round about it, and the siege was perfect. Eccl. 9:14
Now there was found in it a man poor and wise, and he delivered the city by his wisdom, and no man afterward remembered that poor man. Eccl. 9:15
And the dust return into its earth, from whence it was, and the spirit return to God, who gave it. Eccl. 12:7
And whereas Ecclesiastes was very wise, he taught the people, and declared the things that he had done: and seeking out, he set forth many parables. Eccl. 12:9
While the king was at his repose, my spikenard sent forth the odour thereof. Cant. 1:12
As the apple tree among the trees of the woods, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow, whom I desired: and his fruit was sweet to my palate. Cant. 2:3
I opened the bolt of my door to my beloved: but he had turned aside, and was gone. My soul melted when he spoke: I sought him, and found him not: I called, and he did not answer me. Cant. 5:6
Who is this that cometh up from the desert, flowing with delights, leaning upon her beloved? Under the apple tree I raised thee up: there thy mother was corrupted, there she was defloured that bore thee. Cant. 8:5
In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die: and their departure was taken for misery: Wis. 3:2
He pleased God, and was beloved, and living among sinners, he was translated. Wis. 4:10
He was taken away, lest wickedness should alter his understanding, or deceit beguile his soul. Wis. 4:11
Now what wisdom is, and what was her origin, I will declare: and I will not hide from you the mysteries of God, but will seek her out from the beginning of her birth, and bring the knowledge of her to light, and will not pass over the truth: Wis. 6:24
¤ I myself am a mortal man, like all others, and of the race of him, that was first made of the earth, and in the womb of my mother I was fashioned to be flesh. Wis. 7:1
In the time of ten months I was compacted in blood, of the seed of man, and the pleasure of sleep concurring. Wis. 7:2
And being born, I drew in the common air, and fell upon the earth, that is made alike, and the first voice which I uttered was crying, as all others do. Wis. 7:3
I was nursed in swaddling clothes, and with great cares. Wis. 7:4
Wherefore I wished, and understanding was given me: and I called upon God, and the spirit of wisdom came upon me: Wis. 7:7
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
And I was a witty child, and had received a good soul. Wis. 8:19
And whereas I was more good, I came to a body undefiled. Wis. 8:20
And as I knew that I could not otherwise be continent, except God gave it, and this also was a point of wisdom, to know whose gift it was, I went to the Lord, and besought him, and said with my whole heart: Wis. 8:21
And by thy wisdom hast appointed man, that he should have dominion over the creature that was made by thee, Wis. 9:2
And thy wisdom with thee, which knoweth thy works, which then also was present when thou madest the world, and knew what was agreeable to thy eyes, and what was right in thy commandments. Wis. 9:9
¤ She preserved him, that was first formed by God, the father of the world, when he was created alone, Wis. 10:1
She forsook not the just when he was sold, but delivered him from sinners: she went down with him into the pit. Wis. 10:13
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
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
Shewing by the thirst that was then, how thou didst exalt thine, and didst kill their adversaries. Wis. 11:9
For when they heard that by their punishments the others were benefited, they remembered the Lord, wondering at the end of what was come to pass. Wis. 11:14
For whom they scorned before, when he was thrown out at the time of his being wickedly exposed to perish, him they admired in the end, when they saw the event: their thirsting being unlike to that of the just. Wis. 11:15
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
And those parents sacrificing with their own hands helpless souls, it was thy will to destroy by the hands of our parents, Wis. 12:6
For it was a cursed seed from the beginning: neither didst thou for fear of any one give pardon to their sins. Wis. 12:11
¤ But all men are vain, in whom there is not the knowledge of God: and who by these good things that are seen, could not understand him that is, neither by attending to the works have acknowledged who was the workman: Wis. 13:1
And taking what was left thereof, which is good for nothing, being a crooked piece of wood, and full of knots, carveth it diligently when he hath nothing else to do, and by the skill of his art fashioneth it, and maketh it like the image of a man: Wis. 13:13
And from the beginning also, when the proud giants perished, the hope of the world fleeing to a vessel, which was governed by thy hand, left to the world seed of generation. Wis. 14:6
For a father being afflicted with bitter grief, made to himself the image of his son, who was quickly taken away: and him who then had died as a man, he began now to worship as a god, and appointed him rites and sacrifices among his servants. Wis. 14:15
Then, in process of time, wicked custom prevailing, this error was kept as a law, and statues were worshipped by the commandment of tyrants. Wis. 14:16
And those whom men could not honour in presence, because they dwelt far off, they brought their resemblance from afar, and made an express image of the king, whom they had a mind to honour: that by this their diligence, they might honour as present, him that was absent. Wis. 14:17
And the multitude of men, carried away by the beauty of the work, took him now for a god, that a little before was but honoured as a man. Wis. 14:20
And this was the occasion of deceiving human life: for men serving either their affection, or their kings, gave the incommunicable name to stones and wood. Wis. 14:21
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
And of the same clay by a vain labour he maketh a god: he who a little before was made of earth himself, and a little after returneth to the same out of which he was taken, when his life, which was lent him, shall be called for again. Wis. 15:8
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
For he that turned to it, was not healed by that which he saw, but by thee, the Saviour of all. Wis. 16:7
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
For it was neither herb, nor mollifying plaster, that healed them, but thy word, O Lord, which healeth all things. Wis. 16:12
And which was wonderful, in water, which extinguisheth all things, the fire had more force: for the world fighteth for the just. Wis. 16:17
For at one time the fire was mitigated, that the beasts which were sent against the wicked might not be burnt, but that they might see, and perceive that they were persecuted by the judgment of God. Wis. 16:18
For thy sustenance shewed thy sweetness to thy children, and serving every man's will, it was turned to what every man liked. Wis. 16:21
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
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
And the delusions of their magic art were put down, and their boasting of wisdom was reproachfully rebuked. Wis. 17:7
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
For if any one were a husbandman, or a shepherd, or a labourer in the field, and was suddenly overtaken, he endured a necessity from which he could not fly. Wis. 17:16
For the whole world was enlightened, with a clear light, and none were hindered in their labours. Wis. 17:19
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
The others indeed were worthy to be deprived of light, and imprisoned in darkness, who kept thy children shut up, by whom the pure light of the law was to be given to the world. Wis. 18:4
For that night was known before by our fathers, that assuredly knowing what oaths they had trusted to, they might be of better courage. Wis. 18:6
But on the other side there sounded an ill according cry of the enemies, and a lamentable mourning was heard for the children that were bewailed. Wis. 18:10
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
For while all things were in quiet silence, and the night was in the midst of her course, Wis. 18:14
But the just also were afterwards touched by an assault of death, and there was a disturbance of the multitude in the wilderness: but thy wrath did not long continue; Wis. 18:20
For a blameless man made haste to pray for the people, bringing forth the shield of his ministry, prayer, and by incense making supplication, withstood the wrath, and put an end to the calamity, shewing that he was thy servant. Wis. 18:21
For in the priestly robe which he wore, was the whole world: and in the four rows of the stones, the glory of the fathers was graven, and thy majesty was written upon the diadem of his head. Wis. 18:24
And to these the destroyer gave place, and was afraid of them: for the proof only of wrath was enough. Wis. 18:25
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 every creature, according to its kind was fashioned again as from the beginning, obeying thy commandments, that thy children might be kept without hurt. Wis. 19:6

In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain: upon which there was as the building of a city, bending towards the south. Ezec. 40:2
And he brought me in thither, and behold a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed in his hand, and he stood in the gate. Ezec. 40:3
And behold there was a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits and a handbreadth: and he measured the breadth of the building one reed, and the height one reed. Ezec. 40:5
And he came to the gate that looked toward the east, and he went up the steps thereof: and he measured the breadth of the threshold of the gate one reed, that is, one threshold was one reed broad; Ezec. 40:6
And every little chamber was one reed long, and one reed broad: and between the little chambers were five cubits: Ezec. 40:7
And the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within, was one reed. Ezec. 40:8
And he measured the porch of the gate eight cubits, and the front thereof two cubits: and the porch of the gate was inward. Ezec. 40:9
And the border before the little chambers one cubit: and one cubit was the border on both sides: and the little chambers were six cubits on this side and that side. Ezec. 40:12
And the pavement in the front of the gates according to the length of the gates was lower. Ezec. 40:18
And the windows thereof, and the porch, and the gravings according to the measure of the gate that looked to the east, and they went up to it by seven steps, and a porch was before it. Ezec. 40:22
And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate of the north, and that of the east: and he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits. Ezec. 40:23
And the windows thereof, and the porches round about, as the other windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits. Ezec. 40:25
And there was a gate of the inner court towards the south: and he measured from gate to gate towards the south, a hundred cubits. Ezec. 40:27
The little chamber thereof, and the front thereof, and the porch thereof with the same measures: and the windows thereof, and the porch thereof round about it was fifty cubits in length, and five and twenty cubits in breadth. Ezec. 40:29
And the porch round about was five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad. Ezec. 40:30
The little chamber thereof, and the front thereof, and the porch thereof as before: and the windows thereof, and the porches thereof round about it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad. Ezec. 40:33
And the porch thereof, that is, of the outward court: and the graven palm trees in the front thereof on this side and on that side: and the going up thereof was by eight steps. Ezec. 40:34
The little chamber thereof, and the front thereof, and the porch thereof, and the windows thereof round about it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad. Ezec. 40:36
And the porch thereof looked to the outward court: and the graving of palm trees in the front thereof was on this side and on that side: and the going up to it was by eight steps. Ezec. 40:37
And at every chamber was a door in the forefronts of the gates: there they washed the holocaust. Ezec. 40:38
And the borders of them were of one handbreadth, turned inwards round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering. Ezec. 40:43
And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singing men in the inner court, which was on the side of the gate that looketh to the north: and their prospect was towards the south, one at the side of the east gate, which looketh toward the north. Ezec. 40:44
And he measured the court a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad foursquare: and the altar that was before the face of the temple. Ezec. 40:47
And the length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits, and there were eight steps to go up to it. And there were pillars in the fronts: one on this side, and another on that side. Ezec. 40:49
And the breadth of the gate was ten cubits: and the sides of the gate five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and he measured the length thereof forty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits. Ezec. 41:2
And there was a broad passage round about, going up by winding stairs, and it led into the upper loft of the temple all round: therefore was the temple broader in the higher parts: and so from the lower parts they went to the higher by the midst. Ezec. 41:7
And the thickness of the wall for the side chamber without, which was five cubits: and the inner house was within the side chambers of the house, Ezec. 41:9
And between the chambers was the breadth of twenty cubits round about the house on every side. Ezec. 41:10
And the door of the side chambers was turned towards the place of prayer: one door was toward the north, and another door was toward the south: and the breadth of the place for prayer, was five cubits round about. Ezec. 41:11
And the building that was separate, and turned to the way that looked toward the sea, was seventy cubits broad and the wall of the building, five cubits thick round about: and ninety cubits long. Ezec. 41:12
And he measured the length of the building over against it, which was separated at the back of it: and the galleries on both sides a hundred cubits: and the inner temple, and the porches of the court. Ezec. 41:15
The thresholds, and the oblique windows, and the galleries round about on three sides, over against the threshold of every one, and floored with wood all round about: and the ground was up to the windows, and the windows were shut over the doors. Ezec. 41:16
And there were cherubims and palm trees wrought, so that a palm tree was between a cherub and a cherub, and every cherub had two faces. Ezec. 41:18
The face of a man was toward the palm tree on one side, and the face of a lion was toward the palm tree on the other side: set forth through all the house round about. Ezec. 41:19
The threshold was foursquare, and the face of the sanctuary sight to sight. Ezec. 41:21
The altar of wood was three cubits high: and the length thereof was two cubits: and the corners thereof, and the length thereof, and the walls thereof, were of wood. And he said to me: This is the table before the Lord. Ezec. 41:22
¤ And he brought me forth into the outward court by the way that leadeth to the north, and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate building, and over against the house toward the north. Ezec. 42:1
In the face of the north door was the length of a hundred cubits, and the breadth of fifty cubits. Ezec. 42:2
Over against the twenty cubits of the inner court, and over against the pavement of the outward court that was paved with stone, where there was a gallery joined to a triple gallery. Ezec. 42:3
And before the chambers was a walk ten cubits broad, looking to the inner parts of a way of one cubit. And their doors were toward the north. Ezec. 42:4
And the outward wall that went about by the chambers, which were towards the outward court on the forepart of the chambers, was fifty cubits long. Ezec. 42:7
For the length of the chambers of the outward court was fifty cubits: and the length before the face of the temple, a hundred cubits. Ezec. 42:8
And there was under these chambers, an entrance from the east, for them that went into them out of the outward court. Ezec. 42:9
In the breadth of the outward wall of the court that was toward the east, over against the separate building, and there were chambers before the building. Ezec. 42:10
And the way before them was like the chambers which were toward the north: they were as long as they, and as broad as they: and all the going in to them, and their fashions, and their doors were alike. Ezec. 42:11
According to the doors of the chambers that were towards the south: there was a door in the head of the way, which way was before the porch, separated towards the east as one entereth in. Ezec. 42:12
And behold the glory of the God of Israel came in by the way of the east: and his voice was like the noise of many waters, and the earth shone with his majesty. Ezec. 43:2
And I saw the vision according to the appearance which I had seen when he came to destroy the city: and the appearance was according to the vision which I had seen by the river Chobar: and I fell upon my face. Ezec. 43:3
And the spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court: and behold the house was filled with the glory of the Lord. Ezec. 43:5
They who have set their threshold by my threshold, and their posts by my posts: and there was but a wall between me, and them: and they profaned my holy name by the abominations which they committed: for which reason I consumed them in my wrath. Ezec. 43:8
And these are the measures of the altar by the truest cubit, which is a cubit and a handbreadth: the bottom thereof was a cubit, and the breadth a cubit: and the border thereof unto its edge, and round about, one handbreadth: and this was the trench of the altar. Ezec. 43:13
And the Ariel itself was four cubits: and from the Ariel upward were four horns. Ezec. 43:15
And the Ariel was twelve cubits long, and twelve cubits broad, foursquare, with equal sides. Ezec. 43:16
And the brim was fourteen cubits long, and fourteen cubits broad in the four corners thereof: and the crown round about it was half a cubit, and the bottom of it one cubit round about: and its steps turned toward the east. Ezec. 43:17
¤ And he brought me back to the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary, which looked towards the east: and it was shut. Ezec. 44:1
And he brought me in by the entry that was at the side of the gate, into the chambers of the sanctuary that were for the priests, which looked toward the north. And there was a place bending to the west. Ezec. 46:19
And he brought me into the outward court, and he led me about by the four corners of the court: and behold there was a little court in the corner of the court, to every corner of the court there was a little court. Ezec. 46:21
And there was a wall round about compassing the four little courts, and there were kitchens built under the rows round about. Ezec. 46:23
And he measured a thousand, and he brought me through the water up to the loins. And he measured a thousand, and it was a torrent, which I could not pass over: for the waters were risen so as to make a deep torrent, which could not be passed over. Ezec. 47:5
Its circumference was eighteen thousand: and the name of the city from that day, The Lord is there. Ezec. 48:35
Children in whom there was no blemish, well favoured, and skilful in all wisdom, acute in knowledge, and instructed in science, and such as might stand in the king's palace, that he might teach them the learning, and the tongue of the Chaldeans. Dan. 1:4
¤ In the second year of the reign of Nabuchodonosor, Nabuchodonosor had a dream, and his spirit was terrified, and his dream went out of his mind. Dan. 2:1
Then Daniel inquired concerning the law and the sentence, of Arioch, the general of the king's army, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon. Dan. 2:14
And he asked him that had received the orders of the king, why so cruel a sentence was gone forth from the face of the king. And when Arioch had told the matter to Daniel, Dan. 2:15
Then was the mystery revealed to Daniel by a vision in the night: and Daniel blessed the God of heaven, Dan. 2:19
The king answered, and said to Daniel, whose name was Baltassar: Thinkest thou indeed that thou canst tell me the dream that I saw, and the interpretation thereof? Dan. 2:26
Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was as it were a great statue: this statue, which was great and high, tall of stature, stood before thee, and the look thereof was terrible. Dan. 2:31
The head of this statue was of fine gold, but the breast and the arms of silver, and the belly and the thighs of brass. Dan. 2:32
Thus thou sawest, till a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands: and it struck the statue upon the feet thereof that were of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces. Dan. 2:34
Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of a summer's threshing floor, and they were carried away by the wind: and there was no place found for them: but the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. Dan. 2:35
According as thou sawest, that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and broke in pieces the clay and the iron, and the brass, and the silver, and the gold, the great God hath shewn the king what shall come to pass hereafter, and the dream is true, and the interpretation thereof is faithful. Dan. 2:45
And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, over the works of the province of Babylon: but Daniel himself was in the king's palace. Dan. 2:49
¤ Now there was a man that dwelt in Babylon, and his name was Joakim: Dan. 13:1
And he took a wife, whose name was Susanna, the daughter of Helcias, a very beautiful woman, and one that feared God. Dan. 13:2
Now Joakim was very rich, and had an orchard near his house: and the Jews resorted to him, because he was the most honourable of them all. Dan. 13:4
And it fell out, as they watched a fit day, she went in on a time, as yesterday and the day before, with two maids only, and was desirous to wash herself in the orchard: for it was hot weather. Dan. 13:15
And there was nobody there, but the two old men that had hid themselves, and were beholding her. Dan. 13:16
But if thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee, and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee. Dan. 13:21
So when the servants of the house heard the cry in the orchard, they rushed in by the back door, to see what was the matter. Dan. 13:26
Now Susanna was exceeding delicate, and beautiful to behold. Dan. 13:31
But those wicked men commanded that her face should be uncovered, (for she was covered) that so at least they might be satisfied with her beauty. Dan. 13:32
Then a young man that was there hid came to her, and lay with her. Dan. 13:37
And him indeed we could not take, because he was stronger than us, and opening the doors, he leaped out: Dan. 13:39
But having taken this woman, we asked who the young man was, but she would not tell us: of this thing we are witnesses. Dan. 13:40
And when she was led to be put to death, the Lord raised up the holy spirit of a young boy, whose name was Daniel: Dan. 13:45
To fulfil the law of Moses: and they put them to death, and innocent blood was saved in that day. Dan. 13:62
But Helcias, and his wife, praised God, for their daughter, Susanna, with Joakim, her husband, and all her kindred, because there was no dishonesty found in her. Dan. 13:63
Then was Nabuchodonosor filled with fury: and the countenance of his face was changed against Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and he commanded that the furnace should be heated seven times more than it had been accustomed to be heated. Dan. 3:19
For the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace was heated exceedingly. And the flame of the fire slew those men that had cast in Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago. Dan. 3:22
Then Nabuchodonosor, the king, was astonished, and rose up in haste, and said to his nobles: Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered the king, and said: True, O king. Dan. 3:24
I, Nabuchodonosor, was at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace: Dan. 4:4
This was the vision of my head in my bed: I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was exceeding great. Dan. 4:10
The tree was great and strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven: the sight thereof was even to the ends of all the earth. Dan. 4:11
Its leaves were most beautiful, and its fruit exceeding much: and in it was food for all: under it dwelt cattle and beasts, and in the branches thereof the fowls of the air had their abode: and all flesh did eat of it. Dan. 4:12
Then Daniel, whose name was Baltassar, began silently to think within himself for about one hour: and his thoughts troubled him. But the king answering, said: Baltassar, let not the dream and the interpretation thereof trouble thee. Baltassar answered, and said: My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thy enemies. Dan. 4:19
The tree which thou sawest, which was high and strong, whose height reached to the skies, and the sight thereof into all the earth: Dan. 4:20
And the branches thereof were most beautiful, and its fruit exceeding much, and in it was food for all, under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and the birds of the air had their abode in its branches. Dan. 4:21
At the end of twelve months he was walking in the palace of Babylon. Dan. 4:29
And while the word was yet in the king's mouth, a voice came down from heaven: To thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, it is said: Thy kingdom shall pass from thee. Dan. 4:31
The same hour the word was fulfilled upon Nabuchodonosor, and he was driven away from among men, and did eat grass, like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven: till his hairs grew like the feathers of eagles, and his nails like birds' claws. Dan. 4:33
Now at the end of the days, I, Nabuchodonosor, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my sense was restored to me: and I blessed the most High, and I praised and glorified him that liveth for ever: for his power is an everlasting power, and his kingdom is to all generations. Dan. 4:34
At the same time my sense returned to me, and I came to the honour and glory of my kingdom: and my shape returned to me: and my nobles, and my magistrates, sought for me, and I was restored to my kingdom: and greater majesty was added to me. Dan. 4:36
And being now drunk, he commanded that they should bring the vessels of gold and silver, which Nabuchodonosor, his father, had brought away out of the temple, that was in Jerusalem, that the king and his nobles, and his wives, and his concubines, might drink in them. Dan. 5:2
Then were the golden and silver vessels brought, which he had brought away out of the temple that was in Jerusalem: and the king and his nobles, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them. Dan. 5:3
Then was the king's countenance changed, and his thoughts troubled him: and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees struck one against the other. Dan. 5:6
Wherewith king Baltasar was much troubled, and his countenance was changed: and his nobles also were troubled. Dan. 5:9
Then Daniel was brought in before the king. And the king spoke, and said to him: Art thou Daniel, of the children of the captivity of Juda, whom my father, the king, brought out of Judea? Dan. 5:13
But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened unto pride, he was put down from the throne of his kingdom, and his glory was taken away. Dan. 5:20
And he was driven out from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses, and he did eat grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven: till he knew that the most High ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he will set over it whomsoever it shall please him. Dan. 5:21
Then by the king's command, Daniel was clothed with purple, and a chain of gold was put about his neck: and it was proclaimed of him that he had power as the third man in the kingdom. Dan. 5:29
The same night Baltasar, the Chaldean king, was slain. Dan. 5:30
And three princes over them of whom Daniel was one: that the governors might give an account to them, and the king might have no trouble. Dan. 6:2
And Daniel excelled all the princes, and governors: because a greater spirit of God was in him. Dan. 6:3
And the king thought to set him over all the kingdom; whereupon the princes, and the governors, sought to find occasion against Daniel, with regard to the king: and they could find no cause, nor suspicion, because he was faithful, and no fault, nor suspicion was found in him. Dan. 6:4
Now, when Daniel knew this, that is to say, that the law was made, he went into his house: and opening the windows in his upper chamber towards Jerusalem, he knelt down three times a day, and adored and gave thanks before his God, as he had been accustomed to do before. Dan. 6:10
Now when the king had heard these words, he was very much grieved, and in behalf of Daniel he set his heart to deliver him, and even till sunset he laboured to save him. Dan. 6:14
And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den: which the king sealed with his own ring, and with the ring of his nobles, that nothing should be done against Daniel. Dan. 6:17
And the king went away to his house, and laid himself down without taking supper, and meat was not set before him, and even sleep departed from him. Dan. 6:18
Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and he commanded that Daniel should be taken out of the den: and Daniel was taken out of the den, and no hurt was found in him, because he believed in his God. Dan. 6:23
And king Astyages was gathered to his fathers; and Cyrus, the Persian, received his kingdom. Dan. 13:65
¤ And Daniel was the king's guest, and was honoured above all his friends. Dan. 14:1
Now the Babylonians had an idol called Bel: and there was spent upon him every day twelve great measures of fine flour, and forty sheep, and six vessels of wine. Dan. 14:2
And the king said: I see the footsteps of men, and women, and children. And the king was angry. Dan. 14:19
And there was a great dragon in that place, and the Babylonians worshipped him. Dan. 14:22
And they cast him into the den of lions, and he was there six days. Dan. 14:30
Now there was in Judea a prophet called Habacuc, and he had boiled pottage, and had broken bread in a bowl: and was going into the field, to carry it to the reapers. Dan. 14:32
And upon the seventh day the king came to bewail Daniel: and he came to the den, and looked in, and behold Daniel was sitting in the midst of the lions. Dan. 14:39
¤ In the first year of Baltasar, king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream: and the vision of his head was upon his bed: and writing the dream, he comprehended it in a few words: and relating the sum of it in short, he said: Dan. 7:1
The first was like a lioness, and had the wings of an eagle: I beheld till her wings were plucked off, and she was lifted up from the earth, and stood upon her feet as a man, and the heart of a man was given to her. Dan. 7:4
After this I beheld, and lo, another like a leopard, and it had upon it four wings, as of a fowl, and the beast had four heads, and power was given to it. Dan. 7:6
After this I beheld in the vision of the night, and lo, a fourth beast, terrible and wonderful, and exceeding strong, it had great iron teeth, eating and breaking in pieces, and treading down the rest with its feet: and it was unlike to the other beasts which I had seen before it, and had ten horns. Dan. 7:7
I beheld till thrones were placed, and the ancient of days sat: his garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like clean wool: his throne like flames of fire: the wheels of it like a burning fire. Dan. 7:9
I beheld, because of the voice of the great words which that horn spoke: and I saw that the beast was slain, and the body thereof was destroyed, and given to the fire to be burnt: Dan. 7:11
And that the power of the other beasts was taken away: and that times of life were appointed them for a time, and time. Dan. 7:12
My spirit trembled; I, Daniel, was affrighted at these things, and the visions of my head troubled me. Dan. 7:15
After this I would diligently learn concerning the fourth beast, which was very different from all, and exceeding terrible: his teeth and claws were of iron: he devoured and broke in pieces, and the rest he stamped upon with his feet: Dan. 7:19
And concerning the ten horns that he had on his head: and concerning the other that came up, before which three horns fell: and of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and was greater than the rest. Dan. 7:20
Hitherto is the end of the word. I, Daniel, was much troubled with my thoughts, and my countenance was changed in me: but I kept the word in my heart. Dan. 7:28
Saw in my vision when I was in the castle of Susa, which is in the province of Elam: and I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai. Dan. 8:2
And when he was come near the ram, he was enraged against him, and struck the ram: and broke his two horns, and the ram could not withstand him: and when he had cast him down on the ground, he stamped upon him, and none could deliver the ram out of his hand. Dan. 8:7
And the he goat became exceeding great: and when he was grown, the great horn was broken, and there came up four horns under it towards the four winds of heaven. Dan. 8:8
And it was magnified even unto the strength of heaven: and it threw down of the strength, and of the stars, and trod upon them. Dan. 8:10
And it was magnified even to the prince of the strength: and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary. Dan. 8:11
And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper. Dan. 8:12
And I heard one of the saints speaking, and one saint said to another I know not to whom, that was speaking: How long shall be the vision, concerning the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation that is made: and the sanctuary, and the strength be trodden under foot? Dan. 8:13
And he came, and stood near where I stood: and when he was come, I fell on my face, trembling, and he said to me: Understand, O son of man, for in the time of the end the vision shall be fulfilled. Dan. 8:17
And the he goat, is the king of the Greeks, and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king. Dan. 8:21
But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it, four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength. Dan. 8:22
And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true: thou, therefore, seal up the vision, because it shall come to pass after many days. Dan. 8:26
And I, Daniel, languished, and was sick for some days: and when I was risen up, I did the king's business, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none that could interpret it. Dan. 8:27
And he hath confirmed his words which he spoke against us, and against our princes that judged us, that he would bring in upon us a great evil, such as never was under all the heaven, according to that which hath been done in Jerusalem. Dan. 9:12
Now while I was yet speaking, and praying, and confessing my sins, and the sins of my people of Israel, and presenting my supplications in the sight of my God, for the holy mountain of my God: Dan. 9:20
As I was yet speaking in prayer, behold the man, Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, flying swiftly, touched me at the time of the evening sacrifice. Dan. 9:21
¤ In the third year of Cyrus, king of the Persians, a word was revealed to Daniel, surnamed Baltassar, and a true word, and great strength: and he understood the word: for there is need of understanding in a vision. Dan. 10:1
I ate no desirable bread, and neither flesh, nor wine, entered into my mouth, neither was I anointed with ointment: till the days of three weeks were accomplished. Dan. 10:3
And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, I was by the great river, which is the Tigris. Dan. 10:4
And his body was like the chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as a burning lamp: and his arms, and all downward even to the feet, like in appearance to glittering brass: and the voice of his word like the voice of a multitude. Dan. 10:6
And I, being left alone, saw this great vision: and there remained no strength in me, and the appearance of my countenance was changed in me, and I fainted away, and retained no strength. Dan. 10:8
And I heard the voice of his words: and when I heard I lay in a consternation upon my face, and my face was close to the ground. Dan. 10:9
And when he was speaking such words to me, I cast down my countenance to the ground, and held my peace. Dan. 10:15
¤ But at that time shall Michael rise up, the great prince, who standeth for the children of thy people: and a time shall come, such as never was from the time that nations began, even until that time. And at that time shall thy people be saved, every one that shall be found written in the book. Dan. 12:1
And I said to the man that was clothed in linen, that stood upon the waters of the river: How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? Dan. 12:6
And I heard the man that was clothed in linen, that stood upon the waters of the river, when he had lifted up his right hand, and his left hand to heaven, and had sworn by him that liveth for ever, that it should be unto a time, and times, and half a time. And when the scattering of the band of the holy people shall be accomplished, all these things shall be finished. Dan. 12:7
And she weaned her that was called Without mercy. And she conceived, and bore a son. Osee 1:8
Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born: and I will make her as a wilderness, and will set her as a land that none can pass through and will kill her with drought. Osee 2:3

And Gorgias saw that his men were put to flight, and that they had set fire to the camp: for the smoke that was seen declared what was done. 1 Ma. 4:20

And Judas saw that the fight was begun, and the cry of the battle went up to heaven like a trumpet, and a great cry out of the city: 1 Ma. 5:31
And the host of Timotheus understood that it was Machabeus, and they fled away before his face and they made a great slaughter of them, and there fell of them in that day almost eight thousand men. 1 Ma. 5:34
And he passed over to them first, and all the people after him, and all the heathens were discomfited before them, and they threw away their weapons, and fled to the temple that was in Carnaim. 1 Ma. 5:43
And he took that city, and the temple he burnt with fire, with all things that were therein: and Carnaim was subdued, and could not stand against the face of Judas. 1 Ma. 5:44
And they came as far as Ephron: now this was a great city, situate in the way, strongly fortified, and there was no means to turn from it on the right hand or on the left, but the way was through the midst of it. 1 Ma. 5:46
Then Judas commanded proclamation to be made in the camp, that they should make an assault, every man in the place where he was. 1 Ma. 5:49

And the men of Juda were magnified exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and of all the nations where their name was heard. 1 Ma. 5:63
¤ Now king Antiochus was going through the higher countries, and he heard that the city of Elymais in Persia, was greatly renowned, and abounding in silver and gold, 1 Ma. 6:1
And that there was in it a temple exceeding rich; and coverings of gold, and breastplates, and shields, which king Alexander, son of Philip, the Macedonian, that reigned first in Greece, had left there. 1 Ma. 6:2
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 whilst he was in Persia there came one that told him how the armies that were in the land of Juda were put to flight: 1 Ma. 6:5
And that Lysias went with a very great power, and was put to flight before the face of the Jews, and that they were grown strong by the armour, and power, and store of spoils which they had gotten out of the camps which they had destroyed: 1 Ma. 6:6
And it came to pass, when the king heard these words, that he was struck with fear, and exceedingly moved: and he laid himself down upon his bed, and fell sick for grief, because it had not fallen out to him as he imagined. 1 Ma. 6:8
And I said in my heart: Into how much tribulation am I come, and into what floods of sorrow wherein now I am: I that was pleasant and beloved in my power! 1 Ma. 6:11
And Lysias understood that the king was dead, and he set up Antiochus, his son, to reign, whom he had brought up young: and he called his name Eupator. 1 Ma. 6:17
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 the number of his army was an hundred thousand footmen, and twenty thousand horsemen, and thirty-two elephants trained to battle. 1 Ma. 6:30
And the king rose before it was light, and made his troops march on fiercely towards the way of Bethzacharam: and the armies made themselves ready for the battle, and they sounded the trumpets: 1 Ma. 6:33
These before the time wheresoever the beast was they were there: and whithersoever it went, they went, and they departed not from it. 1 Ma. 6:36
And part of the king's army was distinguished by the high mountains, and the other part by the low places: and they marched on warily and orderly. 1 Ma. 6:40
And all the inhabitants of the land were moved at the noise of their multitude, and the marching of the company, and the rattling of the armour, for the army was exceeding great and strong. 1 Ma. 6:41
And Eleazar, the son of Saura, saw one of the beasts harnessed with the king's harness: and it was higher than the other beasts; and it seemed to him that the king was on it: 1 Ma. 6:43
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
Was returned from Persia, and Media, with the army that went with him and that he sought to take upon him the affairs of the kingdom: 1 Ma. 6:56
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 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
Then the king chose Bacchides, one of his friends, that ruled beyond the great river in the kingdom, and was faithful to the king: and he sent him, 1 Ma. 7:8
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
And the king sent Nicanor, one of his principal lords, who was a great enemy to Israel: and he commanded him to destroy the people. 1 Ma. 7:26
And the thing was known to Judas that he was come to him with deceit: and he was much afraid of him, and would not see his face any more. 1 Ma. 7:30
And Nicanor knew that his counsel was discovered: and he went out to fight against Judas, near Capharsalama. 1 Ma. 7:31
And the armies joined battle on the thirteenth day of the month, Adar: and the army of Nicanor was defeated, and he himself was first slain in the battle. 1 Ma. 7:43
And when his army saw that Nicanor was slain they threw away their weapons, and fled: 1 Ma. 7:44
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 the land of Juda was quiet for a short time. 1 Ma. 7:50
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 how they took him alive, and appointed to him, that both he and they that should reign after him, should pay a great tribute, and that he should give hostages, and that which was agreed upon, 1 Ma. 8:7
And none of all these wore a crown, or was clothed in purple, to be magnified thereby. 1 Ma. 8:14
And the proposal was pleasing in their sight. 1 Ma. 8:21
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
And Bacchides was in the right wing, and the legion drew near on two sides, and they sounded the trumpets: 1 Ma. 9:12
And they also that were on Judas's side, even they also cried out, and the earth shook at the noise of the armies: and the battle was fought from morning even unto the evening. 1 Ma. 9:13
And Judas perceived that the stronger part of the army of Bacchides was on the right side, and all the stout of heart came together with him: 1 Ma. 9:14
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 the battle was hard fought, and there fell many wounded of the one side and of the other. 1 Ma. 9:17
And Judas was slain, and the rest fled away. 1 Ma. 9:18
In those days there was a very great famine, and they and all their country yielded to Bacchides. 1 Ma. 9:24
And there was a great tribulation in Israel, such as was not since the day, that there was no prophet seen in Israel. 1 Ma. 9:27
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
After this it was told Jonathan, and Simon, his brother, that the children of Jambri made a great marriage, and were bringing the bride out of Madaba, the daughter of one of the great princes of Chanaan, with great pomp. 1 Ma. 9:37
And the marriage was turned into mourning, and the noise of their musical instruments into lamentation. 1 Ma. 9:41
And they built strong cities in Judea, the fortress that was in Jericho, and in Ammaus, and in Bethoron, and in Bethel, and Thamnata, and Phara, and Thopo, with high walls, and gates, and bars. 1 Ma. 9:50
At that time Alcimus was struck: and his works were hindered, and his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak a word, nor give order concerning his house. 1 Ma. 9:55
And Bacchides saw that Alcimus was dead: and he returned to the king, and the land was quiet for two years. 1 Ma. 9:57
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 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
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
And Demetrius heard these words, and was exceeding sorry, and said: 1 Ma. 10:22
And the battle was hard fought, till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day. 1 Ma. 10:50
And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch. 1 Ma. 10:68
And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan, the high priest, 1 Ma. 10:69
Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon, his brother, met him to help him. 1 Ma. 10:74
And they pitched their tents near Joppe, but they shut him out of the city: because a garrison of Apollonius was in Joppe, and he laid siege to it. 1 Ma. 10:75
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 Jonathan knew that there was an ambush behind him, and they surrounded his army, and cast darts at the people from morning till evening. 1 Ma. 10:80
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
Now king Alexander was in Cilicia at that time: because they that were in those places had rebelled. 1 Ma. 11:14
And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted. 1 Ma. 11:16
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
Then some wicked men that hated their own nation, went away to king Demetrius, and told him that Jonathan was besieging the castle. 1 Ma. 11:21
And when he heard it, he was angry: and forthwith he came to Ptolemais, and wrote to Jonathan that he should not besiege the castle, but should come to him in haste, and speak to him. 1 Ma. 11:22
And king Demetrius, seeing that the land was quiet before him, and nothing resisted him, sent away all his forces, every man to his own place, except the foreign army, which he had drawn together from the islands of the nations: so all the troops of his fathers hated him. 1 Ma. 11:38
Now there was one Tryphon who had been of Alexander's party before: who seeing that all the army murmured against Demetrius, went to Emalchuel, the Arabian, who brought up Antiochus, the son of Alexander: 1 Ma. 11:39
And Jonathan sent him three thousand valiant men to Antioch: and they came to the king, and the king was very glad of their coming. 1 Ma. 11:44
So king Demetrius sat in the throne of his kingdom: and the land was quiet before him. 1 Ma. 11:52
And after this Tryphon returned, and with him Antiochus, the young boy, who was made king, and put on the diadem. 1 Ma. 11:54
And Jonathan and his army encamped by the water of Genesar, and before it was light they were ready in the plain of Asor. 1 Ma. 11:67
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 they went to Rome, and entered into the senate house, and said: Jonathan, the high priest, and the nation of the Jews, have sent us to renew the amity, and alliance, as it was before. 1 Ma. 12:3
And Onias received the ambassador with honour and received the letters, wherein there was mention made of the alliance, and amity. 1 Ma. 12:8
And when the sun was set, Jonathan commanded his men to watch, and to be in arms all night long ready to fight, and he set sentinels round about the camp. 1 Ma. 12:27
And they came together to build up the city: for the wall that was upon the brook, towards the east, was broken down, and he repaired that which is called Caphetetha: 1 Ma. 12:37
¤ Now Simon heard that Tryphon was gathering together a very great army to invade the land of Juda, and to destroy it. 1 Ma. 13:1
And seeing that the people was in dread and in fear, he went up to Jerusalem, and assembled the people, 1 Ma. 13:2
And the spirit of the people was enkindled as soon as they heard these words: 1 Ma. 13:7
And Tryphon removed from Ptolemais with a great army, to invade the land of Juda, and Jonathan was with him in custody. 1 Ma. 13:12
And when Tryphon understood that Simon was risen up in the place of his brother, Jonathan, and that he meant to join battle with him, he sent messengers to him, 1 Ma. 13:14
But Tryphon, when he was upon a journey with the young king, Antiochus, treacherously slew him. 1 Ma. 13:31
And Simon chose men, and sent to king Demetrius, to the end that he should grant an immunity to the land; for all that Tryphon did, was to spoil. 1 Ma. 13:34
In the year one hundred and seventy, the yoke of the Gentiles was taken off from Israel. 1 Ma. 13:41
And they that were within the engine leapt into the city: and there was a great uproar in the city. 1 Ma. 13:44
And they entered into it the three and twentieth day of the second month, in the year one hundred and seventy-one, with thanksgiving, and branches of palm trees, and harps, and cymbals, and psalteries, and hymns, and canticles, because the great enemy was destroyed out of Israel. 1 Ma. 13:51
And he fortified the mountain of the temple that was near the castle, and he dwelt there himself, and they that were with him. 1 Ma. 13:53
And Simon saw that John, his son, was a valiant man for war: and he made him captain of all the forces: and he dwelt in Gazara. 1 Ma. 13:54
And Arsaces, the king of Persia and Media, heard that Demetrius was entered within his borders, and he sent one of his princes to take him alive, and bring him to him. 1 Ma. 14:2
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
And he gathered together a great number of captives, and had the dominion of Gazara, and of Bethsura, and of the castle: and took away all uncleanness out of it, and there was none that resisted him. 1 Ma. 14:7
And he provided victuals for the cities, and he appointed that they should be furnished with ammunition, so that the fame of his glory was renowned even to the end of the earth. 1 Ma. 14:10
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 it was heard at Rome, and as far as Sparta, that Jonathan was dead: and they were very sorry. 1 Ma. 14:16
But when they heard that Simon, his brother, was made high priest in his place, and was possessed of all the country, and the cities therein: 1 Ma. 14:17
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 Jonathan gathered together his nation, and was made their high priest, and he was laid to his people. 1 Ma. 14:30
And he fortified the cities of Judea and Bethsura that lieth in the borders of Judea, where the armour of the enemies was before: and he placed there a garrison of Jews. 1 Ma. 14:33
And Simon accepted thereof, and was well pleased to execute the office of the high priesthood, and to be captain, and prince of the nation of the Jews, and of the priests, and to be chief over all. 1 Ma. 14:47
So Athenobius, the king's friend came to Jerusalem, and saw the glory of Simon and his magnificence in gold, and silver, and his great equipage, and he was astonished, and told him the king's words. 1 Ma. 15:32
And Simon answered him, and said to him: We have neither taken other men's land, neither do we hold that which is other men's, but the inheritance of our fathers, which was for some time unjustly possessed by our enemies. 1 Ma. 15:33
But returning in a rage to the king, made report to him of these words, and of the glory of Simon, and of all that he had seen, and the king was exceeding angry. 1 Ma. 15:36
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
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
Now Ptolemee, the son of Abobus, was appointed captain in the plain of Jericho, and he had abundance of silver and gold. 1 Ma. 16:11
For he was son in law of the high priest. 1 Ma. 16:12
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
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
Behold, these are written in the book of the days of his priesthood, from the time that he was made high priest after his father. 1 Ma. 16:24
For when the leader himself was in Persia, and with him a very great army, he fell in the temple of Nanea, being deceived by the counsel of the priests of Nanea. 2 Ma. 1:13
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
Therefore, whereas we purpose to keep the purification of the temple on the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu, we thought it necessary to signify it to you: that you also may keep the day of Scenopegia, and the day of the fire, that was given when Nehemias offered sacrifice, after the temple and the altar was built. 2 Ma. 1:18
For when our fathers were led into Persia, the priests that then were worshippers of God, took privately the fire from the altar, and hid it in a valley where there was a deep pit without water, and there they kept it safe, so that the place was unknown to all men. 2 Ma. 1:19
And when this was done, and the time came that the sun shone out, which before was in a cloud, there was a great fire kindled, so that all wondered. 2 Ma. 1:22
And all the priests made prayer, while the sacrifice was consuming, Jonathan beginning, and the rest answering. 2 Ma. 1:23
And the prayer of Nehemias was after this manner: O Lord God, Creator of all things, dreadful and strong, just and merciful, who alone art the good king, 2 Ma. 1:24
And the priests sung hymns till the sacrifice was consumed. 2 Ma. 1:30
And when the sacrifice was consumed, Nehemias commanded the water that was left to be poured out upon the great stones. 2 Ma. 1:31
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 this matter became public, it was told to the king of Persia, that in the place where the priests that were led away, had hid the fire, there appeared water, with which Nehemias and they that were with him had purified the sacrifices. 2 Ma. 1:33
It was also contained in the same writing, how the prophet, being warned by God, commanded that the tabernacle and the ark should accompany him, till he came forth to the mountain where Moses went up, and saw the inheritance of God. 2 Ma. 2:4
And then the Lord will shew these things, and the majesty of the Lord shall appear, and there shall be a cloud as it was also shewed to Moses, and he shewed it when Solomon prayed that the place might be sanctified to the great God. 2 Ma. 2:8
And Moses said: Because the sin offering was not eaten, it was consumed. 2 Ma. 2:11
¤ Therefore, when the holy city was inhabited with all peace, and the laws as yet were very well kept, because of the godliness of Onias, the high priest and the hatred his soul had of evil, 2 Ma. 3:1
But one Simon, of the tribe of Benjamin, who was appointed overseer of the temple, strove in opposition to the high priest, to bring about some unjust thing in the city. 2 Ma. 3:4
And when he could not overcome Onias, he went to Apollonius, the son of Tharseas, who at that time was governor of Celesyria, and Phenicia: 2 Ma. 3:5
And told him, that the treasury in Jerusalem was full of immense sums of money, and the common store was infinite, which did not belong to the account of the sacrifices: and that it was possible to bring all into the king's hands. 2 Ma. 3:6
Now when Apollonius had given the king notice concerning the money that he was told of, he called for Heliodorus, who had the charge over his affairs, and sent him with commission to bring him the foresaid money. 2 Ma. 3:7
And when he was come to Jerusalem, and had been courteously received in the city by the high priest, he told him what information had been given concerning the money: and declared the cause for which he was come: and asked if these things were so indeed. 2 Ma. 3:9
And that some part of that which wicked Simon had given intelligence of belonged to Hircanus, son of Tobias, a man of great dignity; and that the whole was four hundred talents of silver, and two hundred of gold. 2 Ma. 3:11
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
So on the day he had appointed, Heliodorus entered in to order this matter. But there was no small terror throughout the whole city. 2 Ma. 3:14
Now whosoever saw the countenance of the high priest, was wounded in heart: for his face, and the changing of his colour, declared the inward sorrow of his mind. 2 Ma. 3:16
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
Others also came flocking together out of their houses, praying and making public supplication, because the place was like to come into contempt. 2 Ma. 3:18
For the expectation of the mixed multitude, and of the high priest, who was in an agony, would have moved any one to pity. 2 Ma. 3:21
So he that came with many servants, and all his guard, into the aforesaid treasury, was carried out, no one being able to help him, the manifest power of God being known. 2 Ma. 3:28
But they praised the Lord, because he had glorified his place: and the temple, that a little before was full of fear and trouble, when the Almighty Lord appeared, was filled with joy and gladness. 2 Ma. 3:30
Then some of the friends of Heliodorus forthwith begged of Onias, that he would call upon the Most High to grant him his life, who was ready to give up the ghost. 2 Ma. 3:31
And when the high priest was praying, the same young men in the same clothing stood by Heliodorus, and said to him: Give thanks to Onias the priest: because for his sake the Lord hath granted thee life. 2 Ma. 3:33
¤ But Simon, of whom we spoke before, who was the betrayer of the money, and of his country, spoke ill of Onias, as though he had incited Heliodorus to do these things, and had been the promoter of evils: 2 Ma. 4:1
And he presumed to call him a traitor to the kingdom, who provided for the city, and defended his nation, and was zealous for the law of God. 2 Ma. 4:2
Onias, considering the danger of this contention, and that Apollonius, who was the governor of Celesyia, and Phenicia, was outrageous, which increased the malice of Simon, went to the king, 2 Ma. 4:4
For he saw that, except the king took care, it was impossible that matters should be settled in peace, or that Simon would cease from his folly. 2 Ma. 4:6
But after the death of Seleucus, when Antiochus, who was called the Illustrious, had taken possession of the kingdom, Jason, the brother of Onias, ambitiously sought the high priesthood: 2 Ma. 4:7
Now this was not the beginning, but an increase, and progress of heathenish and foreign manners, through the abominable and unheard of wickedness of Jason, that impious wretch, and no priest. 2 Ma. 4:13
Now when the game that was used every fifth year was kept at Tyre, the king being present, 2 Ma. 4:18
The wicked Jason sent from Jerusalem sinful men, to carry three hundred didrachmas of silver for the sacrifice of Hercules; but the bearers thereof desired it might not be bestowed on the sacrifices, because it was not necessary, but might be deputed for other charges. 2 Ma. 4:19
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
Now when Apollonius, the son of Mnestheus was sent into Egypt to treat with the nobles of king Philometor, and Antiochus understood that he was wholly excluded from the affairs of the kingdom, consulting his own interest, he departed thence and came to Joppe, and from thence to Jerusalem. 2 Ma. 4:21
Where he was received in a magnificent manner by Jason, and the city, and came in with torch lights, and with praises, and from thence he returned with his army into Phenicia. 2 Ma. 4:22
Then Jason, who had undermined his own brother, being himself undermined, was driven out a fugitive into the country of the Ammonites. 2 Ma. 4:26
And Menelaus was removed from the priesthood, Lysimachus, his brother, succeeding: and Sostratus was made governor of the Cyprians. 2 Ma. 4:29
And when the king was come back from the places of Cilicia, the Jews that were at Antioch, and also the Greeks, went to him: complaining of the unjust murder of Onias. 2 Ma. 4:36
Antiochus, therefore, was grieved in his mind for Onias, and being moved to pity, shed tears, remembering the sobriety and modesty of the deceased. 2 Ma. 4:37
Now when many sacrileges had been committed by Lysimachus in the temple, by the counsel of Menelaus, and the rumour of it was spread abroad, the multitude gathered themselves together against Lysimachus, a great quantity of gold being already carried away. 2 Ma. 4:39
Now concerning these matters, an accusation was laid against Menelaus. 2 Ma. 4:43
And when the king was come to Tyre, three men were sent from the ancients to plead the cause before him. 2 Ma. 4:44
So Ptolemee went to the king in a certain court where he was, as it were to cool himself, and brought him to be of another mind: 2 Ma. 4:46
So Menelaus, who was guilty of all the evil, was acquitted by him of the accusations: and those poor men, who, if they had pleaded their cause even before Scythians, should have been judged innocent, were condemned to death. 2 Ma. 4:47
Now when there was gone forth a false rumour as though Antiochus had been dead, Jason taking with him no fewer than a thousand men, suddenly assaulted the city: and though the citizens ran together to the wall, the city at length was taken, and Menelaus fled into the castle. 2 Ma. 5:5
At the last, having been shut up by Aretas, the king of the Arabians, in order for his destruction, flying from city to city, hated by all men, as a forsaker of the laws and execrable, as an enemy of his country and countrymen, he was thrust out into Egypt: 2 Ma. 5:8
But he that had cast out many unburied, was himself cast forth both unlamented and unburied, neither having foreign burial, nor being partaker of the sepulchre of his fathers. 2 Ma. 5:10
Thus there was a slaughter of young and old, destruction of women and children, and killing of virgins and infants. 2 Ma. 5:13
But this was not enough, he presumed also to enter into the temple, the most holy in all the world Menelaus, that traitor to the laws, and to his country, being his guide. 2 Ma. 5:15
Thus Antiochus going astray in mind, did not consider that God was angry for a while, because of the sins of the inhabitants of the city: and therefore this contempt had happened to the place: 2 Ma. 5:17
Otherwise had they not been involved in many sins, as Heliodorus, who was sent by king Seleucus to rob the treasury, so this man also, as soon as he had come, had been forthwith scourged, and put back from his presumption. 2 Ma. 5:18
And, therefore, the place also itself was made partaker of the evils of the people: but afterwards shall communicate in the good things thereof, and as it was forsaken in the wrath of Almighty God, shall be exalted again with great glory, when the great Lord shall be reconciled. 2 Ma. 5:20
So when Antiochus had taken away out of the temple a thousand and eight hundred talents, he went back in all haste to Antioch, thinking through pride that he might now make the land navigable, and the sea passable on foot: such was the haughtiness of his mind. 2 Ma. 5:21
And whereas he was set against the Jews, he sent that hateful prince, Apollonius, with an army of two and twenty thousand men, commanding him to kill all that were of perfect age, and to sell the women and the younger sort. 2 Ma. 5:24
Who, when he was come to Jerusalem, pretending peace, rested till the holy day of the sabbath: and then the Jews keeping holiday, he commanded his men to take arms. 2 Ma. 5:25
But Judas Machabeus, who was the tenth, had withdrawn himself into a desert place, and there lived amongst wild beasts in the mountains with his company: and they continued feeding on herbs, that they might not be partakers of the pollution. 2 Ma. 5:27
And to defile the temple that was in Jerusalem, and to call it the temple of Jupiter Olympius: and that in Garazim of Jupiter Hospitalis, according as they were that inhabited the place. 2 Ma. 6:2
And very bad was this invasion of evils, and grievous to all. 2 Ma. 6:3
For the temple was full of the riot and revellings of the Gentiles: and of men lying with lewd women. And women thrust themselves of their accord into the holy places, and brought in things that were not lawful. 2 Ma. 6:4
The altar also was filled with unlawful things, which were forbidden by the laws. 2 Ma. 6:5
But they were led by bitter constraint on the king's birthday to the sacrifices: and when the feast of Bacchus was kept, they were compelled to go about crowned with ivy in honour of Bacchus. 2 Ma. 6:7
And whosoever would not conform themselves to the ways of the Gentiles, should be put to death: then was misery to be seen. 2 Ma. 6:9
Eleazar one of the chief of the scribes, a man advanced in years, and of a comely countenance, was pressed to open his mouth to eat swine's flesh. 2 Ma. 6:18
And considering in what manner he was to come to it, patiently bearing, he determined not to do any unlawful things for the love of life. 2 Ma. 6:20
But they that stood by, being moved with wicked pity, for the old friendship they had with the man, taking him aside, desired that flesh might be brought which it was lawful for him to eat, that he might make as if he had eaten, as the king had commanded, of the flesh of the sacrifice: 2 Ma. 6:21
For it doth not become our age, said he, to dissemble: whereby many young persons might think that Eleazar, at the age of fourscore and ten years, was gone over to the life of the heathens: 2 Ma. 6:24
And I shall leave an example of fortitude to young men, if with a ready mind and constancy I suffer an honourable death, for the most venerable and most holy laws. And having spoken thus, he was forthwith carried to execution. 2 Ma. 6:28
But when he was now ready to die with the stripes, he groaned: and said: O Lord, who hast the holy knowledge, thou knowest manifestly that whereas I might be delivered from death, I suffer grievous pains in body: but in soul am well content to suffer these things, because I fear thee. 2 Ma. 6:30
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 when he was now maimed in all parts, he commanded him, being yet alive, to be brought to the fire, and to be fried in the fryingpan: and while he was suffering therein long torments, the rest, together with the mother, exhorted one another to die manfully, 2 Ma. 7:5
So when the first was dead after this manner, they brought the next to make him a mocking stock: and when they had pulled off the skin of his head with the hair, they asked him if he would eat, before he were punished throughout the whole body in every limb. 2 Ma. 7:7
And when he was at the last gasp, he said thus: Thou indeed, O most wicked man, destroyest us out of this present life: but the King of the world will raise us up, who die for his laws, in the resurrection of eternal life. 2 Ma. 7:9
After him the third was made a mocking-stock, and when he was required, he quickly put forth his tongue, and courageously stretched out his hands: 2 Ma. 7:10
And after he was thus dead, they tormented the fourth in the like manner. 2 Ma. 7:13
And when he was now ready to die, he spoke thus: It is better, being put to death by men, to look for hope from God, to be raised up again by him; for, as to thee, thou shalt have no resurrection unto life. 2 Ma. 7:14
Now the mother was to be admired above measure, and worthy to be remembered by good men, who beheld her seven sons slain in the space of one day, and bore it with a good courage, for the hope that she had in God: 2 Ma. 7:20
Now Antiochus, thinking himself despised, and withal despising the voice of the upbraider, when the youngest was yet alive, did not only exhort him by words, but also assured him with an oath, that he would make him a rich and a happy man, and, if he would turn from the laws of his fathers, would take him for a friend, and furnish him with things necessary. 2 Ma. 7:24
But when the young man was not moved with these things, the king called the mother, and counselled her to deal with the young man to save his life. 2 Ma. 7:25
While she was yet speaking these words, the young man said: For whom do you stay? I will not obey the commandment of the king, but the commandment of the law which was given us by Moses. 2 Ma. 7:30
Then the king being incensed with anger, raged against him more cruelly than all the rest, taking it grievously that he was mocked. 2 Ma. 7:39
And last of all, after the sons, the mother also was consumed. 2 Ma. 7:41
And they called upon the Lord, that he would look upon his people that was trodden down by all and would have pity on the temple, that was defiled by the wicked: 2 Ma. 8:2
That he would have pity also upon the city that was destroyed, that was ready to be made even with the ground, and would hear the voice of the blood that cried to him: 2 Ma. 8:3
Now when Machabeus had gathered a multitude, he could not be withstood by the heathens: for the wrath of the Lord was turned into mercy. 2 Ma. 8:5
And especially in the nights he went upon these expeditions, and the fame of his valour was spread abroad every where. 2 Ma. 8:7
And Nicanor purposed to raise for the king the tribute of two thousand talents, that was to be given to the Romans, by making so much money of the captive Jews: 2 Ma. 8:10
Wherefore he sent immediately to the cities upon the sea coast, to invite men together to buy up the Jewish slaves, promising that they should have ninety slaves for one talent, not reflecting on the vengeance which was to follow him from the Almighty. 2 Ma. 8:11
Now when Judas found that Nicanor was coming, he imparted to the Jews that were with him, that the enemy was at hand. 2 Ma. 8:12
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 they came back for want of time: for it was the day before the sabbath: and therefore they did not continue the pursuit. 2 Ma. 8:26
When this was done, and they had all made a common supplication, they besought the merciful Lord, to be reconciled to his servants unto the end. 2 Ma. 8:29
They slew also Philarches, who was with Timotheus, a wicked man, who had many ways afflicted the Jews. 2 Ma. 8:32
Now when he was come about Ecbatana, he received the news of what had happened to Nicanor and Timotheus. 2 Ma. 9:3
Moreover, being filled with pride, breathing out fire in his rage against the Jews, and commanding the matter to be hastened, it happened as he was going with violence, that he fell from the chariot, so that his limbs were much pained by a grievous bruising of the body. 2 Ma. 9:7
Thus he that seemed to himself to command even the waves of the sea, being proud above the condition of man, and to weigh the heights of the mountains in a balance, now being cast down to the ground, was carried in a litter, bearing witness to the manifest power of God in himself: 2 Ma. 9:8
So that worms swarmed out of the body of this man, and whilst he lived in sorrow and pain, his flesh fell off, and the filthiness of his smell was noisome to the army. 2 Ma. 9:9
Then this wicked man prayed to the Lord, of whom he was not like to obtain mercy. 2 Ma. 9:13
And the city, to which he was going in haste to lay it even with the ground, and to make it a common burying place, he now desireth to make free: 2 Ma. 9:14
But his pains not ceasing, (for the just judgment of God was come upon him) despairing of life, he wrote to the Jews, in the manner of a supplication, a letter in these words: 2 Ma. 9:18
To the end that if any thing contrary to expectation should fall out, or any bad tidings should be brought, they that were in the countries, knowing to whom the whole government was left, might not be troubled. 2 Ma. 9:24
But Philip, that was brought up with him, carried away his body: and out of fear of the son of Antiochus, went into Egypt to Ptolemee Philometor. 2 Ma. 9:29
Now upon the same day that the temple had been polluted by the strangers on the very same day it was cleansed again; to wit, on the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu. 2 Ma. 10:5
And this was the end of Antiochus, that was called the Illustrious. 2 Ma. 10:9
For when he was come to the crown, he appointed over the affairs of his realm one Lysias, general of the army of Phenicia and Syria. 2 Ma. 10:11
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
But Gorgias, who was governor of the holds, taking with him the strangers, often fought against the Jews. 2 Ma. 10:14
But when it was told Machabeus what was done, he assembled the rulers of the people, and accused those men that they had sold their brethren for money, having let their adversaries escape. 2 Ma. 10:21
But as soon as the sun was risen both sides joined battle: the one part having, with their valour, the Lord for a surety of victory, and success: but the other side making their rage their leader in battle. 2 Ma. 10:28
But Timotheus fled into Gazara, a strong hold where Chereas was governor. 2 Ma. 10:32
And having for two days together pillaged and sacked the fortress, they killed Timotheus, who was found hid in a certain place: they slew also his brother Chereas, and Apollophanes. 2 Ma. 10:37
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
So he came into Judea, and approaching to Bethsura, which was in a narrow place, the space of five furlongs from Jerusalem, he laid siege to that fortress. 2 Ma. 11:5
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
But the king's letter to the Jews was in this manner: King Antiochus to the senate of the Jews, and to the rest of the Jews, greeting. 2 Ma. 11:27
He came upon the Jamnites also by night, and set the haven on fire, with the ships, so that the light of the fire was seen at Jerusalem, two hundred and forty furlongs off. 2 Ma. 12:9
Now when Timotheus had knowledge of the coming of Judas, he sent the women and children, and the other baggage, before him into a fortress, called Carnion: for it was impregnable, and hard to come at, by reason of the straitness of the places. 2 Ma. 12:21
¤ In the year one hundred and forty-nine, Judas understood that Antiochus Eupator was coming with a multitude against Judea, 2 Ma. 13:1
But the King of kings stirred up the mind of Antiochus against the sinner, and upon Lysias suggesting that he was the cause of all the evils, he commanded (as the custom is with them) that he should be apprehended and put to death in the same place. 2 Ma. 13:4
Now there was in that place a tower fifty cubits high, having a heap of ashes on every side: this had a prospect steep down. 2 Ma. 13:5
And by such a law it happened that Menelaus the transgressor of the law, was put to death: not having so much as burial in the earth. 2 Ma. 13:7
And indeed very justly, for insomuch as he had committed many sins against the altar of God, the fire and ashes of which were holy: he was condemned to die in ashes. 2 Ma. 13:8
But the king, with his mind full of rage, came on to shew himself worse to the Jews than his father was. 2 Ma. 13:9
Now this was done at the break of day, by the protection and help of the Lord. 2 Ma. 13:17
And he marched with his army to Bethsura, which was a strong hold of the Jews: but he was repulsed, he failed, he lost his men. 2 Ma. 13:19
But Rhodocus, one of the Jews' army, disclosed the secrets to the enemies, so he was sought out, and taken up, and put in prison. 2 Ma. 13:21
He fought with Judas: and was overcome. And when he understood that Philip, who had been left over the affairs, had rebelled at Antioch, he was in a consternation of mind, and entreating the Jews, and yielding to them, he swore to all things that seemed reasonable, and, being reconciled, offered sacrifice, honoured the temple, and left gifts. 2 Ma. 13:23
But when he was come to Ptolemais, the men of that city were much displeased with the conditions of the peace, being angry for fear they should break the covenant. 2 Ma. 13:25
¤ But after the space of three years Judas, and they that were with him, understood that Demetrius, the son of Seleucus, was come up with a great power, and a navy by the haven of Tripolis, to places proper for his purpose, 2 Ma. 14:1
Now one Alcimus, who had been chief priest, but had wilfully defiled himself in the time of mingling with the heathens, seeing that there was no safety for him, nor access to the altar, 2 Ma. 14:3
Now Simon, the brother of Judas, had joined battle with Nicanor: but was frightened with the sudden coming of the adversaries. 2 Ma. 14:17
Nevertheless Nicanor hearing of the valour of Judas' companions, and the greatness of courage, with which they fought for their country, was afraid to try the matter by the sword. 2 Ma. 14:18
And Judas was always dear to him from the heart, and he was well affected to the man. 2 Ma. 14:24
But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor had assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor. 2 Ma. 14:26
Then the king, being in a rage, and provoked with this man's wicked accusation, wrote to Nicanor, signifying that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch. 2 Ma. 14:27
When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man. 2 Ma. 14:28
But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner; and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor. 2 Ma. 14:30
And when they swore unto him, that they knew not where the man was whom he sought, he stretched out his hand to the temple, 2 Ma. 14:32
And when he had spoken thus, he departed. But the priests stretching forth their hands to heaven, called upon him that was ever the defender of their nation, saying in this manner: 2 Ma. 14:34
Therefore now, O Lord, the holy of all holies, keep this house for ever undefiled, which was lately cleansed. 2 Ma. 14:36
Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his kindness was called the father of the Jews. 2 Ma. 14:37
This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews' religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein. 2 Ma. 14:38
Now as the multitude sought to rush into his house, and to break open the door, and to set fire to it, when he was ready to be taken, he struck himself with his sword: 2 Ma. 14:41
But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd: 2 Ma. 14:43
And as he had yet breath in him, being inflamed in mind, he arose: and while his blood ran down with a great stream, and he was grievously wounded, he ran through the crowd: 2 Ma. 14:45
And standing upon a steep rock, when he was now almost without blood, grasping his bowels, with both hands he cast them upon the throng, calling upon the Lord of life and spirit, to restore these to him again: and so he departed this life. 2 Ma. 14:46
¤ But when Nicanor understood that Judas was in the places of Samaria, he purposed to set upon him with all violence, on the sabbath day. 2 Ma. 15:1
Now the vision was in this manner. Onias, who had been high priest, a good and virtuous man, modest in his looks, gentle in his manners, and graceful in speech, and who from a child was exercised in virtues holding up his hands, prayed for all the people of the Jews: 2 Ma. 15:12
For their concern was less for their wives, and children, and for their brethren, and kinsfolks: but their greatest and principal fear was for the holiness of the temple. 2 Ma. 15:18
And now when all expected what judgment would be given, and the enemies were at hand, and the army was set in array, the beasts and the horsemen ranged in convenient places, 2 Ma. 15:20
And when the battle was over, and they were returning with joy, they understood that Nicanor was slain in his armour. 2 Ma. 15:28
And Judas, who was altogether ready, in body and mind, to die for his countrymen, commanded that Nicanor's head, and his hand, with the shoulder, should be cut off, and carried to Jerusalem. 2 Ma. 15:30
And when he was come thither, having called together his countrymen, and the priests to the altar, he sent also for them that were in the castle, 2 Ma. 15:31
And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. Mt. 1:16
Now the generation of Christ was in this wise. When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child, of the Holy Ghost. Mt. 1:18
Whereupon Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was minded to put her away privately. Mt. 1:19
Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying: Mt. 1:22
¤ When Jesus therefore was born in Bethlehem of Juda, in the days of king Herod, behold, there came wise men from the East to Jerusalem, Mt. 2:1
And king Herod hearing this, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. Mt. 2:3
Who having heard the king, went their way; and behold the star which they had seen in the East, went before them, until it came and stood over where the child was. Mt. 2:9
And he was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying: Out of Egypt have I called my son. Mt. 2:15
Then Herod perceiving that he was deluded by the wise men, was exceeding angry: and sending killed all the menchildren that were in Bethlehem, and in all the borders thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men. Mt. 2:16
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremias the prophet, saying: Mt. 2:17
A voice in Rama was heard, lamentation and great mourning; Rachel bewailing her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not. Mt. 2:18
But when Herod was dead, behold an angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt, Mt. 2:19
But hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in the room of Herod his father, he was afraid to go thither: and being warned in sleep retired into the quarters of Galilee. Mt. 2:22
And coming he dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was said by the prophets: That he shall be called a Nazarene. Mt. 2:23
For this is he that was spoken of by Isaias the prophet, saying: A voice of one crying in the desert, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight his paths. Mt. 3:3
And the same John had his garment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins: and his meat was locusts and wild honey. Mt. 3:4
¤ Then Jesus was led by the spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the devil. Mt. 4:1
And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he was hungry. Mt. 4:2

You have heard that it was said to them of old: Thou shalt not commit adultery. Mt. 5:27
Again you have heard that it was said to them of old, thou shalt not forswear thyself: but thou shalt perform thy oaths to the Lord. Mt. 5:33
But I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these. Mt. 6:29
And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house, and it fell not, for it was founded on a rock. Mt. 7:25
And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house, and it fell, and great was the fall thereof. Mt. 7:27
For he was teaching them as one having power, and not as the scribes and Pharisees. Mt. 7:29
¤ And when he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him: Mt. 8:1
And Jesus stretching forth his hand, touched him, saying: I will, be thou made clean. And forthwith his leprosy was cleansed. Mt. 8:3
And Jesus said to the centurion: Go, and as thou hast believed, so be it done to thee. And the servant was healed at the same hour. Mt. 8:13

That it might be fulfilled, which was spoken by the prophet Isaias, saying: He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases. Mt. 8:17
And behold a great tempest arose in the sea, so that the boat was covered with waves, but he was asleep. Mt. 8:24

And there was, not far from them, a herd of many swine feeding. Mt. 8:30
And it came to pass as he was sitting at meat in the house, behold many publicans and sinners came, and sat down with Jesus and his disciples. Mt. 9:10

And when Jesus was come into the house of the ruler, and saw the minstrels and the multitude making a rout, Mt. 9:23
And when the multitude was put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand. And the maid arose. Mt. 9:25
And when he was come to the house, the blind men came to him. And Jesus saith to them, Do you believe, that I can do this unto you? They say to him, Yea, Lord. Mt. 9:28
And after the devil was cast out, the dumb man spoke, and the multitudes wondered, saying, Never was the like seen in Israel. Mt. 9:33
But he said to them: Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, and they that were with him: Mt. 12:3
How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the loaves of proposition, which it was not lawful for him to eat, nor for them that were with him, but for the priests only? Mt. 12:4
And behold there was a man who had a withered hand, and they asked him, saying: Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him. Mt. 12:10

As he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold his mother and his brethren stood without, seeking to speak to him. Mt. 12:46
And when the sun was up they were scorched: and because they had not root, they withered away. Mt. 13:6
When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, there cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart: this is he that received the seed by the way side. Mt. 13:19
And when the blade was sprung up, and had brought forth fruit, then appeared also the cockle. Mt. 13:26
Another parable he spoke to them: The kingdom of heaven is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened. Mt. 13:33
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world. Mt. 13:35

And as he was saying these things to them, the Pharisees and the lawyers began violently to urge him and to oppress his mouth about many things, Lk. 11:53
Consider the lilies, how they grow: they labour not, neither do they spin. But I say to you, not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these. Lk. 12:27
And he was teaching in their synagogue on their sabbath. Lk. 13:10
And behold there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years. And she was bowed together: neither could she look upwards at all. Lk. 13:11
And he laid his hands upon her: and immediately she was made straight and glorified God. Lk. 13:13
It is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened. Lk. 13:21
And behold, there was a certain man before him that had the dropsy. Lk. 14:2
Saying: This man began to build and was not able to finish. Lk. 14:30
What man of you that hath an hundred sheep, and if he shall lose one of them, doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after that which was lost, until he find it? Lk. 15:4
And coming home, call together his friends and neighbours, saying to them: Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost? Lk. 15:6
And rising up, he came to his father. And when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion and running to him fell upon his neck and kissed him. Lk. 15:20
Because this my son was dead and is come to life again, was lost and is found. And they began to be merry. Lk. 15:24
Now his elder son was in the field and when he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing. Lk. 15:25
And he was angry and would not go in. His father therefore coming out began to entreat him. Lk. 15:28
But it was fit that we should make merry and be glad: for this thy brother was dead and is come to life again; he was lost, and is found. Lk. 15:32
¤ And he said also to his disciples: There was a certain rich man who had a steward: and the same was accused unto him, that he had wasted his goods. Lk. 16:1
There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and feasted sumptuously every day. Lk. 16:19
And there was a certain beggar, named Lazarus, who lay at his gate, full of sores, Lk. 16:20
And it came to pass that the beggar died and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom. And the rich man also died: and he was buried in hell. Lk. 16:22
And lifting up his eyes when he was in torments, he saw Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his bosom: Lk. 16:23
And it came to pass, as he was going to Jerusalem, he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. Lk. 17:11
And one of them, when he saw that he was made clean, went back, with a loud voice glorifying God. Lk. 17:15
And he fell on his face before his feet, giving thanks. And this was a Samaritan. Lk. 17:16
Saying: There was a judge in a certain city, who feared not God nor regarded man. Lk. 18:2
And there was a certain widow in that city; and she came to him, saying: Avenge me of my adversary. Lk. 18:3
He having heard these things, became sorrowful: for he was very rich. Lk. 18:23
And they understood none of these things, and this word was hid from them: and they understood not the things that were said. Lk. 18:34
And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. Lk. 18:37
And Jesus standing, commanded him to be brought unto him. And when he was come near, he asked him, Lk. 18:40
And behold, there was a man named Zacheus, who was the chief of the publicans: and he was rich. Lk. 19:2
And he sought to see Jesus who he was: and he could not for the crowd, because he was low of stature. Lk. 19:3
And running before, he climbed up into a sycamore tree, that he might see him: for he was to pass that way. Lk. 19:4
And when Jesus was come to the place, looking up, he saw him and said to him: Zacheus, make haste and come down: for this day I must abide in thy house. Lk. 19:5
And when all saw it, they murmured, saying, that he was gone to be a guest with a man that was a sinner. Lk. 19:7
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. Lk. 19:10
As they were hearing these things, he added and spoke a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately be manifested. Lk. 19:11
He saith to him: Out of thy own mouth I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up what I laid not down and reaping that which I did not sow. Lk. 19:22
And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethania, unto the mount called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples, Lk. 19:29
And when he was now coming near the descent of Mount Olivet, the whole multitude of his disciples began with joy to praise God with a loud voice, for all the mighty works they had seen, Lk. 19:37
And he was teaching daily in the temple. And the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people sought to destroy him. Lk. 19:47
¤ And it came to pass that on one of the days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes, with the ancients, met together, Lk. 20:1
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? Lk. 20:4
But if we say, of men: the whole people will stone us. For they are persuaded that John was a prophet. Lk. 20:6
And they answered that they knew not whence it was. Lk. 20:7
And he began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard and let it out to husbandmen: and he was abroad for a long time. Lk. 20:9
And some saying of the temple that it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said: Lk. 21:5
And in the daytime, he was teaching in the temple: but at night going out, he abode in the mount that is called Olivet. Lk. 21:37
¤ Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the pasch, was at hand. Lk. 22:1
And Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, one of the twelve. Lk. 22:3
And the day of the unleavened bread came, on which it was necessary that the pasch should be killed. Lk. 22:7
And when the hour was come, he sat down: and the twelve apostles with him. Lk. 22:14
And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing. Lk. 22:23
And there was also a strife amongst them, which of them should seem to be the greater. Lk. 22:24
For I say to you that this that is written must yet be fulfilled in me. And with the wicked was he reckoned. For the things concerning me have an end. Lk. 22:37
And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation. Lk. 22:40
And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast. And kneeling down, he prayed. Lk. 22:41
And when he rose up from prayer and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow. Lk. 22:45
As he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus, for to kiss him. Lk. 22:47
When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth your hands against me: but this is your hour and the power of darkness. Lk. 22:53
And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall and were sitting about it, Peter was in the midst of them. Lk. 22:55
Whom when a certain servant maid had seen sitting at the light and had earnestly beheld him, she said: This man also was with him. Lk. 22:56
And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him: for he is also a Galilean. Lk. 22:59
And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, as he was yet speaking, the cock crew. Lk. 22:60
And as soon as it was day, the ancients of the people and the chief priests and scribes came together. And they brought him into their council saying: Lk. 22:66
And when he understood that he was of Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him away to Herod, who was also himself at Jerusalem in those days. Lk. 23:7
And Herod seeing Jesus, was very glad: for he was desirous of a long time to see him, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to see some sign wrought by him. Lk. 23:8
Now of necessity he was to release unto them one upon the feast day. Lk. 23:17
Who, for a certain sedition made in the city and for a murder, was cast into prison. Lk. 23:19
And there was also a superscription written over him in letters of Greek and Latin and Hebrew THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. Lk. 23:38
And it was almost the sixth hour: and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. Lk. 23:44
And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst. Lk. 23:45
Now, the centurion, seeing what was done, glorified God, saying: Indeed this was a just man. Lk. 23:47
And behold there was a man named Joseph who was a counsellor, a good and a just man, Lk. 23:50
And taking him down, he wrapped him in fine linen and laid him in a sepulchre that was hewed in stone, wherein never yet any man had been laid. Lk. 23:53
And it was the day of the Parasceve: and the sabbath drew on. Lk. 23:54
And the women that were come with him from Galilee, following after, saw the sepulchre and how his body was laid. Lk. 23:55
He is not here, but is risen. Remember how he spoke unto you, when he was yet in Galilee, Lk. 24:6
And it was Mary Magdalen and Joanna and Mary of James and the other women that were with them, who told these things to the apostles. Lk. 24:10
But Peter rising up, ran to the sepulchre and, stooping down, he saw the linen cloths laid by themselves: and went away wondering in himself at that which was come to pass. Lk. 24:12
And behold, two of them went, the same day, to a town which was sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus. Lk. 24:13
And the one of them, whose name was Cleophas, answering, said to him: Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things that have been done there in these days? Lk. 24:18
To whom he said: What things? And they said: Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people. Lk. 24:19
But we hoped that it was he that should have redeemed Israel. And now besides all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done. Lk. 24:21
Yea and certain women also of our company affrighted us who, before it was light, were at the sepulchre, Lk. 24:22
And it came to pass, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread and blessed and brake and gave to them. Lk. 24:30
And they said one to the other: Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in the way and opened to us the scriptures? Lk. 24:32
And he said to them: These are the words which I spoke to you while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled which are written in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the psalms, concerning me. Lk. 24:44
And it came to pass, whilst he blessed them, he departed from them and was carried up to heaven. Lk. 24:51
‡ ¤ In the beginning was the Word: and the Word was with God: and the Word was God. Jn. 1:1
The same was in the beginning with God. Jn. 1:2
All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made. Jn. 1:3
In him was life: and the life was the light of men. Jn. 1:4
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. Jn. 1:6
He was not the light, but was to give testimony of the light. Jn. 1:8
That was the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world. Jn. 1:9
He was in the world: and the world was made by him: and the world knew him not. Jn. 1:10
And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth. Jn. 1:14
John beareth witness of him and crieth out, saying: This was he of whom I spoke: He that shall come after me is preferred before me: because he was before me. Jn. 1:15
For the law was given by Moses: grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Jn. 1:17
These things were done in Bethania, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing. Jn. 1:28
This is he of whom I said: After me there cometh a man, who is preferred before me: because he was before me. Jn. 1:30
He saith to them: Come and see. They came and saw where he abode: and they stayed with him that day. Now it was about the tenth hour. Jn. 1:39
And Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who had heard of John and followed him. Jn. 1:40
Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. Jn. 1:44
¤ And the third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there. Jn. 2:1
And Jesus also was invited, and his disciples, to the marriage. Jn. 2:2
And when the chief steward had tasted the water made wine and knew not whence it was, but the waiters knew who had drawn the water: the chief steward calleth the bridegroom, Jn. 2:9
And the pasch of the Jews was at hand: and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Jn. 2:13
And his disciples remembered, that it was written: The zeal of thy house hath eaten me up. Jn. 2:17
The Jews then said: Six and forty years was this temple in building; and wilt thou raise it up in three days? Jn. 2:20
When therefore he was risen again from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this: and they believed the scripture and the word that Jesus had said. Jn. 2:22
Now when he was at Jerusalem, at the pasch, upon the festival day, many believed in his name, seeing his signs which he did. Jn. 2:23
And because he needed not that any should give testimony of man: for he knew what was in man. Jn. 2:25
¤ And there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. Jn. 3:1
And John also was baptizing in Ennon near Salim: because there was much water there. And they came and were baptized. Jn. 3:23
For John was not yet cast into prison. Jn. 3:24
And they came to John and said to him: Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou gavest testimony: behold, he baptizeth and all men come to him. Jn. 3:26
And he was of necessity to pass through Samaria. Jn. 4:4
Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well. It was about the sixth hour. Jn. 4:6
And when he was come into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things he had done at Jerusalem on the festival day: for they also went to the festival day. Jn. 4:45
He came again therefore into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capharnaum. Jn. 4:46
He having heard that Jesus was come from Judea into Galilee, went to him and prayed him to come down and heal his son: for he was at the point of death. Jn. 4:47
And as he was going down, his servants met him: and they brought word, saying, that his son lived. Jn. 4:51
The father therefore knew that it was at the same hour that Jesus said to him: Thy son liveth. And himself believed, and his whole house. Jn. 4:53
This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judea, into Galilee. Jn. 4:54
¤ After these things was a festival day of the Jews: and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Jn. 5:1
And an angel of the Lord descended at certain times into the pond and the water was moved. And he that went down first into the pond after the motion of the water was made whole of whatsoever infirmity he lay under. Jn. 5:4
And there was a certain man there that had been eight and thirty years under his infirmity. Jn. 5:5
And immediately the man was made whole: and he took up his bed and walked. And it was the sabbath that day. Jn. 5:9
The Jews therefore said to him that was healed: It is the sabbath. It is not lawful for thee to take up thy bed. Jn. 5:10
But he who was healed knew not who it was: for Jesus went aside from the multitude standing in the place. Jn. 5:13
The man went his way and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him whole. Jn. 5:15
Hereupon therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he did not only break the sabbath but also said God was his Father, making himself equal to God. Jn. 5:18
He was a burning and a shining light: and you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light. Jn. 5:35
Now the pasch, the festival day of the Jews, was near at hand. Jn. 6:4
Then Jesus said: Make the men sit down. Now, there was much grass in the place. The men therefore sat down, in number about five thousand. Jn. 6:10
And when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea. Jn. 6:16
And when they had gone up into a ship, they went over the sea to Capharnaum. And it was now dark: and Jesus was not come unto them. Jn. 6:17
They were willing therefore to take him into the ship. And presently the ship was at the land to which they were going. Jn. 6:21
The next day, the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other ship there but one: and that Jesus had not entered into the ship with his disciples, but that his disciples were gone away alone. Jn. 6:22
When therefore the multitude saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they took shipping and came to Capharnaum, seeking for Jesus. Jn. 6:24
If then you shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? Jn. 6:62
But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that did not believe and who he was that would betray him. Jn. 6:64
Now he meant Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon: for this same was about to betray him, whereas he was one of the twelve. Jn. 6:71
Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand. Jn. 7:2
And there was much murmuring among the multitude concerning him. For some said: He is a good man. And others said: No, but he seduceth the people. Jn. 7:12
They sought therefore to apprehend him: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come. Jn. 7:30
Now this he said of the Spirit which they should receive who believed in him: for as yet the Spirit was not given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. Jn. 7:39
Doth not the scripture say: That Christ cometh of the seed of David and from Bethlehem the town where David was? Jn. 7:42
Nicodemus said to them (he that came to him by night, who was one of them): Jn. 7:50
And said to him: Master, this woman was even now taken in adultery. Jn. 8:4
These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come. Jn. 8:20
You are of your father the devil: and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning: and he stood not in the truth, because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof. Jn. 8:44
Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it and was glad. Jn. 8:56
Jesus said to them: Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham was made, I AM. Jn. 8:58
¤ And Jesus passing by, saw a man who was blind from his birth. Jn. 9:1
The neighbours, therefore, and they who had seen him before that he was a beggar, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? Jn. 9:8
Now it was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes. Jn. 9:14
Some therefore of the Pharisees said: This man is not of God, who keepeth not the sabbath. But others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them. Jn. 9:16
And asked them, saying: Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then doth he now see? Jn. 9:19
His parents answered them and said: We know that this is our son and that he was born blind: Jn. 9:20
He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not. One thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see. Jn. 9:25
And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem: and it was winter. Jn. 10:22
If he called them gods to whom the word of God was spoken; and the scripture cannot be broken: Jn. 10:35
And he went again beyond the Jordan, into that place where John was baptizing first. And there he abode. Jn. 10:40
¤ Now there was a certain man sick, named Lazarus, of Bethania, of the town of Mary and of Martha her sister. Jn. 11:1
(And Mary was she that anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair: whose brother Lazarus was sick.) Jn. 11:2
When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he still remained in the same place two days. Jn. 11:6
And I am glad, for your sakes; that I was not there, that you may believe. But, let us go to him. Jn. 11:15
(Now Bethania was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off.) Jn. 11:18
Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus was come, went to meet him: but Mary sat at home. Jn. 11:20
For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him. Jn. 11:30
When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet and saith to him. Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. Jn. 11:32
Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it. Jn. 11:38
Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days. Jn. 11:39
And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands. And his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said to them: Loose him and let him go. Jn. 11:44
And the pasch of the Jews was at hand: and many from the country went up to Jerusalem, before the pasch, to purify themselves. Jn. 11:55
And the chief priests and Pharisees had given a commandment that, if any man knew where he was, he should tell, that they might apprehend him. Jn. 11:57
And they made him a supper there: and Martha served. But Lazarus was one of them that were at table with him. Jn. 12:2
Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of right spikenard, of great price, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. Jn. 12:3
Then one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, he that was about to betray him, said: Jn. 12:4
Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence and given to the poor? Jn. 12:5
Now he said this not because he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief and, having the purse, carried the things that were put therein. Jn. 12:6
A great multitude therefore of the Jews knew that he was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. Jn. 12:9
And on the next day, a great multitude that was come to the festival day, when they had heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, Jn. 12:12
These things his disciples did not know at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of him and that they had done these things to him. Jn. 12:16
The multitude therefore gave testimony, which was with him, when he called Lazarus out of the grave and raised him from the dead. Jn. 12:17
These therefore came to Philip, who was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying: Sir, we would see Jesus. Jn. 12:21
¤ Before the festival day of the pasch, Jesus knowing that his hour was come, that he should pass out of this world to the Father: having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them unto the end. Jn. 13:1
And when supper was done (the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him), Jn. 13:2
After that, he putteth water into a basin and began to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. Jn. 13:5
For he knew who he was that would betray him; therefore he said: You are not all clean. Jn. 13:11
When Jesus had said these things, he was troubled in spirit; and he testified, and said: Amen, amen, I say to you, one of you shall betray me. Jn. 13:21
Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved. Jn. 13:23
He therefore, having received the morsel, went out immediately. And it was night. Jn. 13:30
When he therefore was gone out, Jesus said: Now is the Son of man glorified; and God is glorified in him. Jn. 13:31
But these things I have told you, that when the hour shall come, you may remember that I told you of them. But I told you not these things from the beginning, because I was with you. Jn. 16:4
And now glorify thou me, O Father, with thyself, with the glory which I had, before the world was, with thee. Jn. 17:5
While I was with them, I kept them in thy name. Those whom thou gavest me have I kept: and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition: that the scripture may be fulfilled. Jn. 17:12
¤ When Jesus had said these things, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where there was a garden, into which he entered with his disciples. Jn. 18:1
Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear. And the name of the servant was Malchus. Jn. 18:10
And they led him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiphas, who was the high priest of that year. Jn. 18:13
Now Caiphas was he who had given the counsel to the Jews: That it was expedient that one man should die for the people. Jn. 18:14
And Simon Peter followed Jesus: and so did another disciple. And that disciple was known to the high priest and went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest. Jn. 18:15
But Peter stood at the door without. The other disciple therefore, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the portress and brought in Peter. Jn. 18:16
The maid therefore that was portress saith to Peter: Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith I am not. Jn. 18:17
Now the servants and ministers stood at a fire of coals, because it was cold, and warmed themselves. And with them was Peter also, standing and warming himself. Jn. 18:18
And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him: Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it and said: I am not. Jn. 18:25
Then they led Jesus from Caiphas to the governor's hall. And it was morning: and they went not into the hall, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the pasch. Jn. 18:28
Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice. Jn. 18:37
Then cried they all again, saying: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber. Jn. 18:40
And it was the parasceve of the pasch, about the sixth hour: and he saith to the Jews: Behold your king. Jn. 19:14
And Pilate wrote a title also: and he put it upon the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. Jn. 19:19
This title therefore many of the Jews did read: because the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city. And it was written in Hebrew, in Greek, and in Latin. Jn. 19:20
The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified him, took his garments, (and they made four parts, to every soldier a part) and also his coat. Now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout. Jn. 19:23
Now there was a vessel set there, full of vinegar. And they, putting a sponge full of vinegar and hyssop, put it to his mouth. Jn. 19:29
Then the Jews (because it was the parasceve), that the bodies might not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day (for that was a great sabbath day), besought Pilate that their legs might be broken: and that they might be taken away. Jn. 19:31
The soldiers therefore came: and they broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him. Jn. 19:32
But after they were come to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. Jn. 19:33
And after these things, Joseph of Arimathea (because he was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews), besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave leave. He came therefore and took the body of Jesus. Jn. 19:38
Now there was in the place where he was crucified a garden: and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein no man yet had been laid. Jn. 19:41
There, therefore, because of the parasceve of the Jews, they laid Jesus: because the sepulchre was nigh at hand. Jn. 19:42
¤ And on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalen cometh early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre: and she saw the stone taken away from the sepulchre. Jn. 20:1
But Mary stood at the sepulchre without, weeping. Now as she was weeping, she stooped down and looked into the sepulchre, Jn. 20:11
When she had thus said, she turned herself back and saw Jesus standing: and she knew not that it was Jesus. Jn. 20:14
Jesus saith to her: Woman, why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou? She, thinking that it was the gardener, saith to him: Sir, if thou hast taken him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him: and I will take him away. Jn. 20:15
Now when it was late the same day, the first of the week, and the doors were shut, where the disciples were gathered together, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst and said to them: Peace be to you. Jn. 20:19

But when the morning was come, Jesus stood on the shore: yet the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. Jn. 21:4

Simon Peter went up and drew the net to land, full of great fishes, one hundred and fifty-three. And although there were so many, the net was not broken. Jn. 21:11
Jesus saith to them: Come and dine. And none of them who were at meat, durst ask him: Who art thou? Knowing that it was the Lord. Jn. 21:12
This is now the third time that Jesus was manifested to his disciples, after he was risen from the dead. Jn. 21:14
He said to him the third time: Simon, son of John, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he had said to him the third time: Lovest thou me? And he said to him: Lord, thou knowest all things: thou knowest that I love thee. He said to him: Feed my sheep. Jn. 21:17
Until the day on which, giving commandments by the Holy Ghost to the apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up. Acts 1:2

And they gave them lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles. Acts 1:26

Ye men, brethren, let me freely speak to you of the patriarch David: that he died and was buried; and his sepulchre is with us to this present day. Acts 2:29
Whereas therefore he was a prophet and knew that God hath sworn to him with an oath, that of the fruit of his loins one should sit upon his throne. Acts 2:30
Foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ. For neither was he left in hell: neither did his flesh see corruption. Acts 2:31

And they laid hands upon them and put them in hold till the next day: for it was now evening. Acts 4:3
But many of them who had heard the word believed: and the number of the men was made five thousand. Acts 4:4

And when it was day, they knew not the land. But they discovered a certain creek that had a shore, into which they minded, if they could, to thrust in the ship. Acts 27:39
And when we were fallen into a place where two seas met, they run the ship aground. And the forepart indeed, sticking fast, remained unmoveable: but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the sea. Acts 27:41
And the soldiers' counsel was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any of them, swimming out should escape. Acts 27:42
¤ And when we had escaped, then we knew that the island was called Melita. Acts 28:1
But they supposed that he would begin to swell up and that he would suddenly fall down and die. But expecting long and seeing that there came no harm to him, changing their minds, they said that he was a god. Acts 28:6
And after three months, we sailed in a ship of Alexandria, that had wintered in the island, whose sign was the Castors. Acts 28:11
And when we were come to Rome, Paul was suffered to dwell by himself, with a soldier that kept him. Acts 28:16
And after the third day, he called together the chief of the Jews. And when they were assembled, he said to them: Men, brethren, I, having done nothing against the people or the custom of our fathers, was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans. Acts 28:17
Who, when they had examined me, would have released me, for that there was no cause of death in me. Acts 28:18
But the Jews contradicting it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar: not that I had anything to accuse my nation of. Acts 28:19
Concerning his Son, who was made to him of the seed of David, according to the flesh, Rom. 1:3
Who was predestinated the Son of God in power, according to the spirit of sanctification, by the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead: Rom. 1:4
Because that, when they knew God, they have not glorified him as God or given thanks: but became vain in their thoughts. And their foolish heart was darkened. Rom. 1:21
And, in like manner, the men also, leaving the natural use of the women, have burned in their lusts, one towards another: men with men, working that which is filthy and receiving in themselves the recompense which was due to their error. Rom. 1:27
For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God: and it was reputed to him unto justice. Rom. 4:3
This blessedness then, doth it remain in the circumcision only or in the uncircumcision also? For we say that unto Abraham faith was reputed to justice. Rom. 4:9
How then was it reputed? When he was in circumcision or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. Rom. 4:10
For not through the law was the promise to Abraham or to his seed, that he should be heir of the world: but through the justice of faith. Rom. 4:13
Who against hope believed in hope; that he might be made the father of many nations, according to that which was said to him: So shall thy seed be. Rom. 4:18
And he was not weak in faith. Neither did he consider his own body, now dead (whereas he was almost an hundred years old), nor the dead womb of Sara. Rom. 4:19
In the promise also of God he staggered not by distrust: but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God: Rom. 4:20
And therefore it was reputed to him unto justice. Rom. 4:22
Now it is not written only for him, that it was reputed to him unto justice, Rom. 4:23
Who was delivered up for our sins and rose again for our justification. Rom. 4:25
For until the law sin was in the world: but sin was not imputed, when the law was not. Rom. 5:13
But death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even over them also who have not sinned, after the similitude of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come. Rom. 5:14
And not as it was by one sin, so also is the gift. For judgment indeed was by one unto condemnation: but grace is of many offences unto justification. Rom. 5:16
But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. Rom. 7:8
And the commandment that was ordained to life, the same was found to be unto death to me. Rom. 7:10
Was that then which is good made death unto me? God forbid! But sin, that it may appear sin, by that which is good, wrought death in me: that sin, by the commandment, might become sinful above measure. Rom. 7:13
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and of sin, hath condemned sin in the flesh. Rom. 8:3
For the creature was made subject to vanity: not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope. Rom. 8:20
It was said to her: The elder shall serve the younger. Rom. 9:12
As in Osee he saith: I will call that which was not my people, my people; and her that was not beloved, beloved; and her that had not obtained mercy; one that hath obtained mercy. Rom. 9:25
And it shalt be in the place where it was said unto them: you are not my people; there they shall be called the sons of the living God. Rom. 9:26
But Isaias is bold, and saith: I was found by them that did not seek me. I appeared openly to them that asked not after me. Rom. 10:20
For I say that Christ Jesus was minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers: Rom. 15:8
And I have so preached this gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation. Rom. 15:20
But as it is written: They to whom he was not spoken of shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand. Rom. 15:21
For which cause also, I was hindered very much from coming to you and have been kept away till now. Rom. 15:22
Now to him that is able to establish you, according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret from eternity; Rom. 16:25
As the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, 1 Cor. 1:6
Is Christ divided? Was Paul then crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 1 Cor. 1:13
And I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling. 1 Cor. 2:3
And my speech and my preaching was not in the persuasive words of human wisdom, but in shewing of the Spirit and power: 1 Cor. 2:4
Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called. 1 Cor. 7:20
Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God. 1 Cor. 7:24
For whereas I was free as to all, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more. 1 Cor. 9:19
And I became to the Jews a Jew, that I might gain the Jews: To them that are under the law, as if I were under the law, (whereas myself was not under the law,) that I might gain them that were under the law. 1 Cor. 9:20
To them that were without the law, as if I were without the law, (whereas I was not without the law of God, but was in the law of Christ,) that I might gain them that were without the law. 1 Cor. 9:21
And all drank the same spiritual drink: (And they drank of the spiritual rock that followed them: and the rock was Christ.) 1 Cor. 10:4
But with most of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the desert. 1 Cor. 10:5
For the man was not created for the woman: but the woman for the man. 1 Cor. 11:9
For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus, the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread, 1 Cor. 11:23
When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But, when I became a man, I put away the things of a child. 1 Cor. 13:11
And that he was buried: and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 Cor. 15:4
And that he was seen by Cephas, and after that by the eleven. 1 Cor. 15:5
Then he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once: of whom many remain until this present, and some are fallen asleep. 1 Cor. 15:6
After that, he was seen by James: then by all the apostles. 1 Cor. 15:7
And last of all, he was seen also by me, as by one born out of due time. 1 Cor. 15:8
As it is written: The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit. 1 Cor. 15:45
Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural: afterwards that which is spiritual. 1 Cor. 15:46
The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly. 1 Cor. 15:47
And touching our brother Apollo, I give you to understand that I much entreated him to come unto you with the brethren: and indeed it was not his will at all to come at this time. But he will come when he shall have leisure. 1 Cor. 16:12
And I rejoice in the presence of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: because that which was wanting on your part, they have supplied. 1 Cor. 16:17
Whereas then I was thus minded, did I use lightness? Or, the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that there should be with me, It is, and It is not? 2 Cor. 1:17
But God is faithful: for our preaching which was to you, was not, It is, and It is not. 2 Cor. 1:18
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, by me and Sylvanus and Timothy, was not: It is and It is not. But, It is, was in him. 2 Cor. 1:19
And when I was come to Troas for the gospel of Christ and a door was opened unto me in the Lord, 2 Cor. 2:12
Now if the ministration of death, engraven with letters upon stones, was glorious (so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses, for the glory of his countenance), which is made void: 2 Cor. 3:7
For even that which was glorious in this part was not glorified by reason of the glory that excelleth. 2 Cor. 3:10
For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is in glory. 2 Cor. 3:11
For God indeed was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not imputing to them their sins. And he hath placed in us the word of reconciliation. 2 Cor. 5:19
And not by his coming only, but also by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, relating to us your desire, your mourning, your zeal for me: so that I rejoiced the more. 2 Cor. 7:7
Wherefore although I wrote to you, it was not for his sake that I did the wrong, nor for him that suffered it: but to manifest our carefulness that we have for you before God: 2 Cor. 7:12
Therefore we were comforted. But in our consolation we did the more abundantly rejoice for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all. 2 Cor. 7:13
And if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I have not been put to shame: but as we have spoken all things to you in truth, so also our boasting that was made to Titus is found a truth. 2 Cor. 7:14
And not that only: but he was also ordained by the churches companion of our travels, for this grace, which is administered by us, to the glory of the Lord and our determined will: 2 Cor. 8:19
And, when I was present with you and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was wanting to me, the brethren supplied who came from Macedonia. And in all things I have kept myself from being burthensome to you: and so I will keep myself. 2 Cor. 11:9
Thrice was I beaten with rods: once I was stoned: thrice I suffered shipwreck: a night and a day I was in the depth of the sea. 2 Cor. 11:25
And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall: and so escaped his hands. 2 Cor. 11:33
That he was caught up into paradise and heard secret words which it is not granted to man to utter. 2 Cor. 12:4
And lest the greatness of the revelations should exalt me, there was given me a sting of my flesh, an angel of Satan, to buffet me. 2 Cor. 12:7
For what is there that you have had less than the other churches but that I myself was not burthensome to you? Pardon me this injury. 2 Cor. 12:13
For although he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him: but we shall live with him by the power of God towards you. 2 Cor. 13:4
For I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. Gal. 1:11
And I was unknown by face to the churches of Judea, which were in Christ: Gal. 1:22
But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Gentile, was compelled to be circumcised. Gal. 2:3
But contrariwise, when they had seen that to me was committed the gospel of the uncircumcision, as to Peter was that of the circumcision. Gal. 2:7
And when they had known the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship: that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision: Gal. 2:9
Only that we should be mindful of the poor: which same thing also I was careful to do. Gal. 2:10
But when Cephas was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. Gal. 2:11
And to his dissimulation the rest of the Jews consented: so that Barnabas also was led by them into that dissimulation. Gal. 2:13
As it is written: Abraham believed God: and it was reputed to him unto justice. Gal. 3:6
Now this I say: that the testament which was confirmed by God, the law which was made after four hundred and thirty years doth not disannul, to make the promise of no effect. Gal. 3:17
Why then was the law? It was set because of transgressions, until the seed should come to whom he made the promise, being ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Gal. 3:19
Was the law then against the promises of God: God forbid! For if there had been a law given which could give life, verily justice should have been by the law. Gal. 3:21
But before the faith came, we were kept under the law shut up, unto that faith which was to be revealed. Gal. 3:23
Wherefore the law was our pedagogue in Christ: that we might be justified by faith. Gal. 3:24
But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent his Son, made of a woman, made under the law: Gal. 4:4
But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh: but he of the free woman was by promise. Gal. 4:23
Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. Gal. 4:28
But as then he that was born according to the flesh persecuted him that was after the spirit: so also it is now. Gal. 4:29
Which in other generations was not known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit: Eph. 3:5
For let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Phil. 2:5
For indeed he longed after you all: and was sad, for that you had heard that he was sick. Phil. 2:26
For indeed he was sick, nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him. And not only on him, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow. Phil. 2:27
Because for the work of Christ he came to the point of death: delivering his life, that he might fulfil that which on your part was wanting towards my service. Phil. 2:30
Blotting out the handwriting of the decree that was against us, which was contrary to us. And he hath taken the same out of the way, fastening it to the cross. Col. 2:14
For from you was spread abroad the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and in Achaia but also in every place: your faith which is towards God, is gone forth, so that we need not to speak any thing. 1 Th. 1:8
¤ For yourselves know, brethren, our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain: 1 Th. 2:1
For our exhortation was not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deceit. 1 Th. 2:3
When he shall come to be glorified in his saints and to be made wonderful in all them who have believed; because our testimony was believed upon you in that day. 2 Th. 1:10
Remember you not that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 2 Th. 2:5
Who before was a blasphemer and a persecutor and contumelious. But I obtained the mercy of God, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. 1 Tim. 1:13
For Adam was first formed; then Eve. 1 Tim. 2:13
And Adam was not seduced; but the woman, being seduced, was in the transgression. 1 Tim. 2:14
And evidently great is the mystery of godliness, which was manifested in the flesh, was justified in the spirit, appeared unto angels, hath been preached unto the Gentiles, is believed in the world, is taken up in glory. 1 Tim. 3:16
Neglect not the grace that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with imposition of the hands of the priesthood. 1 Tim. 4:14
Who hath delivered us and called us by his holy calling, not according to our own works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the times of the world: 2 Tim. 1:9
But when he was come to Rome, he carefully sought me and found me. 2 Tim. 1:17
But they shall proceed no farther: for their folly shall be manifest to all men, as theirs also was. 2 Tim. 3:9
But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, that by me the preaching may be accomplished and that all the Gentiles may hear. And I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. 2 Tim. 4:17
How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? Which, having begun to be declared by the Lord, was confirmed unto us by them that heard him. Heb. 2:3
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour: that, through the grace of God he might taste death for all. Heb. 2:9
Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house. Heb. 3:2
For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so much as he that hath built the house hath greater honour than the house. Heb. 3:3
And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said: Heb. 3:5
Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways. Heb. 3:10
And with whom was he offended forty years? Was it not with them that sinned, whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert? Heb. 3:17
Seeing then it remaineth that some are to enter into it, and they to whom it was first preached did not enter because of unbelief: Heb. 4:6
Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was. Heb. 5:4
Who in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offering up prayers and supplications to him that was able to save him from death, was heard for his reverence. Heb. 5:7
And whereas indeed he was the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things which he suffered. Heb. 5:8
¤ For this Melchisedech was king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him: Heb. 7:1
For he was yet in the loins of his father when Melchisedech met him. Heb. 7:10
If then perfection was by the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchisedech: and not be called according to the order of Aaron? Heb. 7:11
For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens: Heb. 7:26
For the law maketh men priests, who have infirmity: but the word of the oath (which was since the law) the Son who is perfected for evermore. Heb. 7:28
Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things. As it was answered to Moses, when he was to finish the tabernacle: See (saith he) that thou make all things according to the pattern which was shewn thee on the mount. Heb. 8:5
For there was a tabernacle made the first, wherein were the candlesticks and the table and the setting forth of loaves, which is called the Holy. Heb. 9:2
Having a golden censer and the ark of the testament covered about on every part with gold, in which was a golden pot that had manna and the rod of Aaron that had blossomed and the tables of the testament. Heb. 9:4
The Holy Ghost signifying this: That the way into the Holies was not yet made manifest, whilst the former tabernacle was yet standing. Heb. 9:8
Whereupon neither was the first indeed dedicated without blood. Heb. 9:18
So also Christ was offered once to exhaust the sins of many. The second time he shall appear without sin to them that expect him unto salvation. Heb. 9:28
How much more, do you think he deserveth worse punishments, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God and hath esteemed the blood of the testament unclean, by which he was sanctified, and hath offered an affront to the Spirit of grace? Heb. 10:29
By faith we understand that the world was framed by the word of God: that from invisible things visible things might be made. Heb. 11:3
By faith Abel offered to God a sacrifice exceeding that of Cain, by which he obtained a testimony that he was just, God giving testimony to his gifts. And by it he being dead yet speaketh. Heb. 11:4
By faith Henoch was translated that he should not see death: and he was not found because God had translated him. For before his translation he had testimony that he pleased God. Heb. 11:5
By faith Noe, having received an answer concerning those things which as yet were not seen, moved with fear, framed the ark for the saving of his house: by the which he condemned the world and was instituted heir of the justice which is by faith. Heb. 11:7
By faith he that is called Abraham obeyed to go out into a place which he was to receive for an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing whither he went. Heb. 11:8
By faith also Sara herself, being barren, received strength to conceive seed, even past the time of age: because she believed that he was faithful who had promised, Heb. 11:11
By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, Heb. 11:17
(To whom it was said: In Isaac shalt thy seed be called:) Heb. 11:18
By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the going out of the children of Israel and gave commandment concerning his bones. Heb. 11:22
By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents: because they saw he was a comely babe, and they feared not the king's edict. Heb. 11:23
By faith Moses, when he was grown up, denied himself to be the son of Pharao's daughter: Heb. 11:24
Of whom the world was not worthy: wandering in deserts, in mountains and in dens and in caves of the earth. Heb. 11:38
For know ye that afterwards, when he desired to inherit the benediction, he was rejected. For he found no place of repentance, although with tears he had sought it. Heb. 12:17
For they did not endure that which was said: and if so much as a beast shall touch the mount, it shall be stoned. Heb. 12:20
And so terrible was that which was seen, Moses said: I am frighted, and tremble. Heb. 12:21
For he beheld himself and went his way and presently forgot what manner of man he was. Jas. 1:24
Was not Abraham our father justified by works, offering up Isaac his son upon the altar? Jas. 2:21
Seest thou that faith did cooperate with his works and by works faith was made perfect? Jas. 2:22
And the scripture was fulfilled, saying: Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him to justice, and he was called the friend of God. Jas. 2:23
And in like manner also Rahab the harlot, was not she justified by works, receiving the messengers and sending them out another way? Jas. 2:25
Elias was a man passible like unto us: and with prayer he prayed that it might not rain upon the earth. And it rained not for three years and six months. Jas. 5:17
To whom it was revealed that, not to themselves but to you, they ministered those things which are now declared to you by them that have preached the gospel to you: the Holy Ghost being sent down from heaven, on whom the angels desire to look. 1 Pet. 1:12
Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth. 1 Pet. 2:22
Who, when he was reviled, did not revile: when he suffered, he threatened not, but delivered himself to him that judged him unjustly. 1 Pet. 2:23
Which had been some time incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was a building: wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water. 1 Pet. 3:20
For, for this cause was the gospel preached also to the dead: That they might be judged indeed according to men, in the flesh: but may live according to God, in the Spirit. 1 Pet. 4:6
For he that hath not these things with him is blind and groping, having forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. 2 Pet. 1:9
For in sight and hearing he was just, dwelling among them who from day to day vexed the just soul with unjust works. 2 Pet. 2:8
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of justice than, after they have known it, to turn back from that holy commandment which was delivered to them. 2 Pet. 2:21
For, that of the true proverb has happened to them: The dog is returned to his vomit; and: The sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. 2 Pet. 2:22
Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished. 2 Pet. 3:6
‡ ¤ That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon and our hands have handled, of the word of life. 1 Jn. 1:1
For the life was manifested: and we have seen and do bear witness and declare unto you the life eternal, which was with the Father and hath appeared to us. 1 Jn. 1:2
Not as Cain, who was of the wicked one and killed his brother. And wherefore did he kill him? Because his own works were wicked: and his brother's just. 1 Jn. 3:12
I was exceeding glad that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father. 2 Jn. 1:4
I was exceedingly glad when the brethren came and gave testimony to the truth in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth. 3 Jn. 1:3
Dearly beloved, taking all care to write unto you concerning your common salvation, I was under a necessity to write unto you: to beseech you to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints. Jude 1:3
John to the seven churches which are in Asia. Grace be unto you and peace, from him that is and that was and that is to come: and from the seven spirits which are before his throne: Apoc. 1:4
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty. Apoc. 1:8
I, John, your brother and your partner in tribulation and in the kingdom and patience in Christ Jesus, was in the island which is called Patmos, for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus. Apoc. 1:9
I was in the spirit on the Lord's day and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, Apoc. 1:10
And he had in his right hand seven stars. And from his mouth came out a sharp two-edged sword. And his face was as the sun shineth in his power. Apoc. 1:16
And alive, and was dead. And behold I am living for ever and ever and have the keys of death and of hell. Apoc. 1:18
And to the angel of the church of Smyrna write: These things saith the First and the Last, who was dead and is alive: Apoc. 2:8
I know where thou dwellest, where the seat of Satan is. And thou holdest fast my name and hast not denied my faith. Even in those days when Antipas was my faithful witness, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth. Apoc. 2:13
¤ After these things I looked, and behold a door was opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard, as it were, of a trumpet speaking with me, said: Come up hither, and I will shew thee the things which must be done hereafter. Apoc. 4:1
And immediately I was in the spirit. And behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and upon the throne one sitting. Apoc. 4:2
And he that sat was to the sight like the jasper and the sardine stone. And there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. Apoc. 4:3
And in the sight of the throne was, as it were, a sea of glass like to crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind. Apoc. 4:6
And the first living creature was like a lion: and the second living creature like a calf: and the third living creature, having the face, as it were, of a man: and the fourth living creature was like an eagle flying. Apoc. 4:7
And the four living creatures had each of them six wings: and round about and within they are full of eyes. And they rested not day and night, saying: Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come. Apoc. 4:8
And no man was able, neither in heaven nor on earth nor under the earth, to open the book, nor to look on it. Apoc. 5:3
And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open the book, nor to see it. Apoc. 5:4
And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures and the ancients (and the number of them was thousands of thousands), Apoc. 5:11
Saying with a loud voice: The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive power and divinity and wisdom and strength and honour and glory and benediction. Apoc. 5:12
And I saw: and behold a white horse, and he that sat on him had a bow, and there was a crown given him, and he went forth conquering that he might conquer. Apoc. 6:2
