- But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him, and they said to him: Let this man return, and abide in his place, which thou hast appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest he be an adversary to us, when we shall begin to fight: for how can he otherwise appease his master, but with our heads? 1 Ki. 29:4
- Then Achis called David, and said to him: As the Lord liveth, thou art upright and good in my sight: and so is thy going out, and thy coming in with me in the army: and I have not found any evil in thee, since the day that thou camest to me unto this day: but thou pleasest not the lords. 1 Ki. 29:6

- And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? and he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him. 1 Ki. 30:15

- 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

- So the messenger departed, and came and told David all that Joab had commanded him. 2 Ki. 11:22

- 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
- Why therefore hast thou despised the word of the Lord, to do evil in my sight? Thou hast killed Urias the Hethite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon. 2 Ki. 12:9
- And the ancients of his house came, to make him rise from the ground: but he would not, neither did he eat meat with them. 2 Ki. 12:17
- 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
- But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Shall I be able to bring him back any more? I shall go to him rather: but he shall not return to me. 2 Ki. 12:23
- And David comforted Bethsabee his wife, and went in unto her, and slept with her: and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon, and the Lord loved him. 2 Ki. 12:24

- And he said to him: Why dost thou grow so lean from day to day, O son of the king? why dost thou not tell me the reason of it? And Ammon said to him: I am in love with Thamar the sister of my brother Absalom. 2 Ki. 13:4
- And Jonadab said to him: Lie down upon thy bed, and feign thyself sick: and when thy father shall come to visit thee, say to him: Let my sister Thamar, I pray thee, come to me, to give me to eat, and to make me a mess, that I may eat it at her hand. 2 Ki. 13:5
- So Ammon lay down, and made as if he were sick: and when the king came to visit him, Ammon said to the king: I pray thee let my sister Thamar come, and make in my sight two little messes, that I may eat at her hand. 2 Ki. 13:6
- Then David sent home to Thamar, saying: Come to the house of thy brother Ammon, and make him a mess. 2 Ki. 13:7
- And taking what she had boiled, she poured it out, and set it before him, but he would not eat: and Ammon said: Put out all persons from me. And when they had put all persons out, 2 Ki. 13:9
- And when she had presented him the meat, he took hold of her, and said: Come lie with me, my sister. 2 Ki. 13:11
- She answered him: Do not so, my brother, do not force me: for no such thing must be done in Israel. Do not thou this folly. 2 Ki. 13:12
- She answered him: This evil which now thou dost against me, in driving me away, is greater than that which thou didst before. And he would not hearken to her: 2 Ki. 13:16
- But calling the servants that ministered to him, he said: Thrust this woman out from me: and shut the door after her. 2 Ki. 13:17
- 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
- And he came to the king, and said to him: Behold thy servant's sheep are shorn. Let the king, I pray, with his servants come to his servant. 2 Ki. 13:24
- And the king said to Absalom: Nay, my son, do not ask that we should all come, and be chargeable to thee. And when he pressed him, and he would not go, he blessed him. 2 Ki. 13:25
- And Absalom said: If thou wilt not come, at least let my brother Ammon, I beseech thee, come with us. And the king said to him: It is not necessary that he should go with thee. 2 Ki. 13:26
- But Absalom pressed him, so that he let Ammon and all the king's sons go with him. And Absalom made a feast as it were the feast of a king. 2 Ki. 13:27
- And Absalom had commanded his servants, saying: Take notice when Ammon shall be drunk with wine, and when I shall say to you: Strike him, and kill him, fear not: for it is I that command you: take courage, and be valiant men. 2 Ki. 13:28
- Then the king rose up, and rent his garments: and fell upon the ground, and all his servants, that stood about him, rent their garments. 2 Ki. 13:31
- And thou shalt go in to the king, and shalt speak to him in this manner. And Joab put the words in her mouth. 2 Ki. 14:3
- 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
- And thy handmaid had two sons: and they quarrelled with each other in the field, and there was none to part them: and the one struck the other, and slew him. 2 Ki. 14:6
- And behold the whole kindred rising against thy handmaid, saith: Deliver him that hath slain his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother, whom he slew, and that we may destroy the heir: and they seek to quench my spark which is left, and will leave my husband no name, nor remainder upon the earth. 2 Ki. 14:7
- And the king said: If any one shall say ought against thee, bring him to me, and he shall not touch thee any more. 2 Ki. 14:10
- And the king answering, said to the woman: Hide not from me the thing that I ask thee. And the woman said to him: Speak, my lord the king. 2 Ki. 14:18
- But the king said: Let him return into his house, and let him not see my face. So Absalom returned into his house, and saw not the king's face. 2 Ki. 14:24
- But in all Israel there was not a man so comely, and so exceedingly beautiful as Absalom: from the sole of the foot to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him. 2 Ki. 14:25
- And when he polled his hair (now he was polled once a year, because his hair was burdensome to him) he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred sicles, according to the common weight. 2 Ki. 14:26
- He sent therefore to Joab, to send him to the king: but he would not come to him. And when he had sent the second time, and he would not come to him, 2 Ki. 14:29
- And Absalom answered Joab: I sent to thee beseeching thee to come to me, that I might send thee to the king, to say to him: Wherefore am I come from Gessur? it had been better for me to be there: I beseech thee therefore that I may see the face of the king: and if he be mindful of my iniquity, let him kill me. 2 Ki. 14:32
- So Joab going in to the king, told him all: and Absalom was called for, and, he went in to the king: and prostrated himself on the ground before him: and the king kissed Absalom. 2 Ki. 14:33
- ¤ Now after these things Absalom made himself chariots, and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him. 2 Ki. 15:1
- And Absalom rising up early stood by the entrance of the gate, and when any man had business to come to the king's judgment, Absalom called him to him, and said: Of what city art thou? He answered, and said: Thy servant is of such a tribe of Israel. 2 Ki. 15:2
- And Absalom answered him: Thy words seem to me good and just. But there is no man appointed by the king to hear thee. And Absalom said: 2 Ki. 15:3
- Moreover when any man came to him to salute him, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him. 2 Ki. 15:5
- And king David said to him: Go in peace. And he arose, and went to Hebron. 2 Ki. 15:9
- And David said to his servants, that were with him in Jerusalem: Arise and let us flee: for we shall not escape else from the face of Absalom: make haste to go out, lest he come and overtake us, and bring ruin upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword. 2 Ki. 15:14
- And the king's servants said to him: Whatsoever our lord the king shall command, we thy servants will willingly execute. 2 Ki. 15:15

- 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
- But if he shall say to me: Thou pleasest me not: I am ready, let him do that which is good before him. 2 Ki. 15:26
- And when David was come to the top of the mountain, where he was about to adore the Lord, behold Chusai the Arachite, came to meet him with his garment rent and his head covered with earth. 2 Ki. 15:32

- 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
- The angel said to him: Be not afraid to give her to this man, for to him who feareth God is thy daughter due to be his wife: therefore another could not have her. Tob. 7:12
- And Raguel called to him Anna his wife, and bade her to prepare another chamber. Tob. 7:18
- Then the angel Raphael took the devil, and bound him in the desert of upper Egypt. Tob. 8:3
- Thou madest Adam of the slime of the earth, and gavest him Eve for a helper. Tob. 8:8
- And it came to pass about the cockcrowing, Raguel ordered his servants to be called for, and they went with him together to dig a grave. Tob. 8:11
- For he said: Lest perhaps it may have happened to him, in like manner as it did to the other seven husbands, that went in unto her. Tob. 8:12
- Send one of thy maids, and let her see if he be dead, that I may bury him before it be day. Tob. 8:14
- And Raguel adjured Tobias, to abide with him two weeks. Tob. 8:23
- ¤ Then Tobias called the angel to him, whom he took to be a man, and said to him: Brother Azarias, I pray thee hearken to my words: Tob. 9:1
- However, I beseech thee, to take with thee beasts and servants, and to go to Gabelus to Rages the city of the Medes: and to restore to him his note of hand, and receive of him the money, and desire him to come to my wedding. Tob. 9:3
- Then Raphael took four of Raguel's servants, and two camels, and went to Rages the city of the Medes: and finding Gabelus, gave him his note of hand, and received of him all the money. Tob. 9:6
- And he told him concerning Tobias the son of Tobias, all that had been done: and made him come with him to the wedding. Tob. 9:7
- Is Gabelus dead, thinkest thou, and no man will pay him the money? Tob. 10:2
- And he began to be exceeding sad, both he and Anna his wife with him: and they began both to weep together, because their son did not return to them on the day appointed. Tob. 10:3
- And Tobias said to her: Hold thy peace, and be not troubled, our son is safe: that man with whom we sent him is very trusty. Tob. 10:6
- But she could by no means be comforted, but daily running out looked round about, and went into all the ways by which there seemed any hope he might return, that she might if possible see him coming afar off. Tob. 10:7
- And Tobias said to him: I know that my father and mother now count the days, and their spirit is grievously afflicted within them. Tob. 10:9
- And when Raguel had pressed Tobias with many words, and he by no means would hearken to him, he delivered Sara unto him, and half of all his substance in menservants, and womenservants, in cattle, in camels, and in kine, and in much money, and sent him away safe and joyful from him, Tob. 10:10
- And as this their going pleased him, Raphael said to Tobias: Take with thee of the gall of the fish, for it will be necessary. So Tobias took some of that gall and departed. Tob. 11:4
- 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 Raphael said to Tobias: As soon as thou shalt come into thy house, forthwith adore the Lord thy God: and giving thanks to him, go to thy father, and kiss him. Tob. 11:7
- And receiving him kissed him, as did also his wife, and they began to weep for joy. Tob. 11:11
- And when they had adored God, and given him thanks, they sat down together. Tob. 11:12
- And they glorified God, both he and his wife and all that knew him. Tob. 11:16
- And he told his parents all the benefits of God, which he had done to him by the man that conducted him. Tob. 11:19
- And Achior and Nabath the kinsmen of Tobias came, rejoicing for Tobias, and congratulating with him for all the good things that God had done for him. Tob. 11:20
- ¤ Then Tobias called to him his son and said to him: What can we give to this holy man, that is come with thee? Tob. 12:1
- Tobias answering, said to his father: Father, what wages shall we give him? or what can be worthy of his benefits? Tob. 12:2
- He conducted me and brought me safe again, he received the money of Gabelus, he caused me to have my wife, and he chased from her the evil spirit, he gave joy to her parents, myself he delivered from being devoured by the fish, thee also he hath made to see the light of heaven, and we are filled with all good things through him. What can we give him sufficient for these things? Tob. 12:3
- But I beseech thee, my father, to desire him, that he would vouchsafe to accept of one half of all things that have been brought. Tob. 12:4
- So the father and the son calling him, took him aside: and began to desire him that he would vouchsafe to accept of half of all things that they had brought, Tob. 12:5
- Then he said to them secretly, Bless ye the God of heaven, give glory to him in the sight of all that live, because he hath shewn his mercy to you. Tob. 12:6
- 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
- It is time therefore that I return to him that sent me: but bless ye God, and publish all his wonderful works. Tob. 12:20
- And when he had said these things, he was taken from their sight, and they could see him no more. Tob. 12:21
- Give glory to the Lord, ye children of Israel, and praise him in the sight of the Gentiles: Tob. 13:3
- Because he hath therefore scattered you among the Gentiles, who know not him, that you may declare his wonderful works, and make them know that there is no other almighty God besides him. Tob. 13:4
- See then what he hath done with us, and with fear and trembling give ye glory to him: and extol the eternal King of worlds in your works. Tob. 13:6
- As for me, I will praise him in the land of my captivity: because he hath shewn his majesty toward a sinful nation, Tob. 13:7
- And I and my soul will rejoice in him. Tob. 13:9
- Bless ye the Lord, all his elect, keep days of joy, and give glory to him. Tob. 13:10
- And at the hour of his death he called unto him his son Tobias and his children, seven young men, his grandsons, and said to them: Tob. 14:5
- Hearken therefore, my children, to your father: serve the Lord in truth, and seek to do the things that please him: Tob. 14:10
- And command your children that they do justice and almsdeeds, and that they be mindful of God, and bless him at all times in truth, and with all their power. Tob. 14:11
- And he found them in health in a good old age: and he took care of them, and he closed their eyes: and all the inheritance of Raguel's house came to him: and he saw his children's children to the fifth generation. Tob. 14:15
- And after he had lived ninety-nine years in the fear of the Lord, with joy they buried him. Tob. 14:16
- Now in the twelfth year of his reign, Nabuchodonosor king of the Assyrians, who reigned in Ninive the great city, fought against Arphaxad and overcame him, Jud. 1:5
- And said to him: Go out against all the kingdoms of the west, and against them especially that despised my commandment. Jud. 2:5
- Then Holofernes called the captains, and officers of the power of the Assyrians: and he mustered men for the expedition, and the king commanded him, a hundred and twenty thousand fighting men on foot, and twelve thousand archers, horsemen. Jud. 2:7
- And he carried away all the children of Madian, and stripped them of all their riches, and all that resisted him he slew with the edge of the sword. Jud. 2:16
- And so great a fear lay upon all those provinces, that the inhabitants of all the cities, both princes and nobles, as well as the people, went out to meet him at his coming. Jud. 3:9
- And received him with garlands, and lights, and dances, and timbrels, and flutes. Jud. 3:10
- For Nabuchodonosor the king had commanded him to destroy all the gods of the earth, that he only might be called God by those nations which could be brought under him by the power of Holofernes. Jud. 3:13
- ¤ Then the children of Israel, who dwelt in the land of Juda, hearing these things, were exceedingly afraid of him. Jud. 4:1
- And it came to pass, when Achior had ceased to speak these words, all the great men of Holofernes were angry, and they had a mind to kill him, saying to each other: Jud. 5:26
- That every nation may know that Nabuchodonosor is god of the earth, and besides him there is no other. Jud. 5:29
- Then Holofernes commanded his servants to take Achior, and to lead him to Bethulia, and to deliver him into the hands of the children of Israel. Jud. 6:7
- And the servants of Holofernes taking him, went through the plains: but when they came near the mountains, the slingers came out against them. Jud. 6:8
- Then turning out of the way by the side of the mountain, they tied Achior to a tree hand and foot, and so left him bound with ropes, and returned to their master. Jud. 6:9
- 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
- And Achior related in the midst of the ancients, and in the presence of all the people, all that he had said being asked by Holofernes: and how the people of Holofernes would have killed him for this word, Jud. 6:12
- And how Holofernes himself being angry had commanded him to be delivered for this cause to the Israelites: that when he should overcome the children of Israel, then he might command Achior also himself to be put to death by diverse torments, for having said: The God of heaven is their defender. Jud. 6:13
- Then Ozias, after the assembly was broken up, received him into his house, and made him a great supper. Jud. 6:19
- You have set a time for the mercy of the Lord, and you have appointed him a day, according to your pleasure. Jud. 8:13
- And therefore let us humble our souls before him, and continuing in an humble spirit, in his service: Jud. 8:16
- For which crime they were given up to their enemies, to the sword, and to pillage, and to confusion: but we know no other God but him. Jud. 8:19
- O Lord God of my father Simeon, who gavest him a sword to execute vengeance against strangers, who had defiled by their uncleanness, and uncovered the virgin unto confusion: Jud. 9:2
- Let him be caught in the net of his own eyes in my regard, and do thou strike him by the graces of the words of my lips. Jud. 9:13
- Give me constancy in my mind, that I may despise him: and fortitude that I may overthrow him. Jud. 9:14
- For this reason I thought with myself, saying: I will go to the presence of the prince Holofernes, that I may tell him their secrets, and shew him by what way he may take them, without the loss of one man of his army. Jud. 10:13
- And be assured of this, that when thou shalt stand before him, he will treat thee well, and thou wilt be most acceptable to his heart. And they brought her to the tent of Holofernes, telling him of her. Jud. 10:16
- And his officers said to him: Who can despise the people of the Hebrews, who have such beautiful women, that we should not think it worth our while for their sakes to fight against them? Jud. 10:18
- After she had looked on his face, bowed down to him, prostrating herself to the ground. And the servants of Holofernes lifted her up, by the command of their master. Jud. 10:20
- And Judith said to him: Receive the words of thy handmaid, for if thou wilt follow the words of thy handmaid, the Lord will do with thee a perfect thing. Jud. 11:4
- For as Nabuchodonosor the king of the earth liveth, and his power liveth which is in thee for chastising of all straying souls: not only men serve him through thee, but also the beasts of the field obey him. Jud. 11:5
- It is known also what Achior said, nor are we ignorant of what thou hast commanded to be done to him. Jud. 11:7
- And Judith answered him and said: Now I cannot eat of these things which thou commandest to be given me, lest sin come upon me: but I will eat of the things which I have brought. Jud. 12:2
- For it is looked upon as shameful among the Assyrians, if a woman mock a man, by doing so as to pass free from him. Jud. 12:11
- Then Vagao went in to Judith, and said: Let not my good maid be afraid to go in to my lord, that she may be honoured before his face, that she may eat with him and drink wine and be merry. Jud. 12:12
- And Judith answered him: Who am I, that I should gainsay my lord? Jud. 12:13
- All that shall be good and best before his eyes, I will do. And whatsoever shall please him, that shall be best to me all the days of my life. Jud. 12:14
- And she took and ate and drank before him what her maid had prepared for her. Jud. 12:19
- And when she had drawn it out, she took him by the hair of his head, and said: Strengthen me, O Lord God, at this hour. Jud. 13:9
- Judith said: Praise ye the Lord our God, who hath not forsaken them that hope in him. Jud. 13:17
- Then she brought forth the head of Holofernes out of the wallet, and shewed it them, saying: Behold the head of Holofernes the general of the army of the Assyrians, and behold his canopy, wherein he lay in his drunkenness, where the Lord our God slew him by the hand of a woman. Jud. 13:19
- Give all of you glory to him, because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever. Jud. 13:21
- And Achior being called for came, and Judith said to him: The God of Israel, to whom thou gavest testimony, that he revengeth himself of his enemies, he hath cut off the head of all the unbelievers this night by my hand. Jud. 13:27
- And when the captains of them shall run to the tent of Holofernes, and shall find him without his head wallowing in his blood, fear shall fall upon them. Jud. 14:4
- And they that were in the tent came, and made a noise, before the door of the chamber to awake him, endeavouring by art to break his rest, that Holofernes might awake, not by their calling him, but by their noise. Jud. 14:9
- Go in, and awake him, for the mice, coming out of their holes, have presumed to challenge us to fight. Jud. 14:12
- And said: One Hebrew woman hath made confusion in the house of king Nabuchodonosor: for behold Holofernes lieth upon the ground, and his head is not upon him. Jud. 14:16
- 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

- She anointed her face with ointment, and bound up her locks with a crown, she took a new robe to deceive him. Jud. 16:10
- And the king commanded him, to abide in the court of the palace, and gave him presents for the information. Esther 12:5
- (Now the chief and nearest him were, Charsena, and Sethar, and Admatha, and Tharsis, and Mares, and Marsana, and Mamuchan, seven princes of the Persians and of the Medes, who saw the face of the king, and were used to sit first after him:) Esther 1:14
- For this deed of the queen will go abroad to all women, so that they will despise their husbands, and will say: King Assuerus commanded that queen Vasthi should come in to him, and she would not. Esther 1:17
- 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
- And she pleased him, and found favour in his sight. And he commanded the eunuch to hasten the women's ornaments, and to deliver to her her part, and seven of the most beautiful maidens of the king's house, and to adorn and deck out both her and her waiting maids. Esther 2:9
- And she would not tell him her people nor her country. For Mardochai had charged her to say nothing at all of that: Esther 2:10
- And the king loved her more than all the women, and she had favour and kindness before him above all the women, and he set the royal crown on her head, and made her queen instead of Vasthi. Esther 2:17
- At that time, therefore, when Mardochai abode at the king's gate, Bagathan and Thares, two of the king's eunuchs, who were porters, and presided in the first entry of the palace, were angry: and they designed to rise up against the king, and to kill him. Esther 2:21
- ¤ 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 all the king's servants, that were at the doors of the palace, bent their knees, and worshipped Aman: for so the emperor had commanded them, only Mardochai did not bend his knee, nor worship him. Esther 3:2
- And the king's servants that were chief at the doors of the palace, said to him: Why dost thou alone not observe the king's commandment? Esther 3:3
- 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 said to him: As to the money which thou promisest, keep it for thyself: and as to the people, do with them as seemeth good to thee. Esther 3:11
- 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 she called for Athach the eunuch, whom the king had appointed to attend upon her, and she commanded him to go to Mardochai, and learn of him why he did this. Esther 4:5
- And Mardochai told him all that had happened, how Aman had promised to pay money into the king's treasures, to have the Jews destroyed. Esther 4:7
- 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
- She answered him, and bade him say to Mardochai: Esther 4:10
- All the king's servants, and all the provinces that are under his dominion, know, that whosoever, whether man or woman, cometh into the king's inner court, who is not called for, is immediately to be put to death without any delay: except the king shall hold out the golden sceptre to him, in token of clemency, that so he may live. How then can I go in to the king, who for these thirty days now have not been called unto him? Esther 4:11
- So Mardochai went, and did all that Esther had commanded him. Esther 4:17
- Give not, O Lord, thy sceptre to them that are not, lest they laugh at our ruin: but turn their counsel upon themselves, and destroy him that hath begun to rage against us. Esther 14:11
- Give me a well ordered speech in my mouth in the presence of the lion, and turn his heart to the hatred of our enemy, that both he himself may perish, and the rest that consent to him. Esther 14:13
- 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
- But dissembling his anger, and returning into his house, he called together to him his friends, and Zares his wife: Esther 5:10
- And he declared to them the greatness of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and with how great glory the king had advanced him above all his princes and servants. Esther 5:11
- Then Zares his wife, and the rest of his friends answered him: Order a great beam to be prepared, fifty cubits high, and in the morning speak to the king, that Mardochai may be hanged upon it, and so thou shalt go full of joy with the king to the banquet. The counsel pleased him, and he commanded a high gibbet to be prepared. Esther 5:14
- ¤ That night the king passed without sleep, and he commanded the histories and chronicles of former times to be brought him. And when they were reading them before him, Esther 6:1
- And when the king heard this, he said: What honour and reward hath Mardochai received for this fidelity? His servants and ministers said to him: He hath received no reward at all. Esther 6:3
- 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
- The servants answered: Aman standeth in the court, and the king said: Let him come in. Esther 6:5
- 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 let the first of the king's princes and nobles hold his horse, and going through the street of the city, proclaim before him and say: Thus shall he be honoured, whom the king hath a mind to honour. Esther 6:9
- And the king said to him: Make haste and take the robe and the horse, and do as thou hast spoken to Mardochai the Jew, who sitteth before the gates of the palace. Beware thou pass over any of those things which thou hast spoken. Esther 6:10
- So Aman took the robe and the horse, and arraying Mardochai in the street of the city, and setting him on the horse, went before him, and proclaimed: This honour is he worthy of, whom the king hath a mind to honour. Esther 6:11
- And he told Zares his wife, and his friends, all that had befallen him. And the wise men whom he had in counsel, and his wife answered him: If Mardochai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou canst not resist him, but thou shalt fall in his sight. Esther 6:13
- As they were yet speaking, the king's eunuchs came, and compelled him to go quickly to the banquet which the queen had prepared. Esther 6:14
- 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 Harbona, one of the eunuchs that stood waiting on the king, said: Behold the gibbet which he hath prepared for Mardochai, who spoke for the king, standeth in Aman's house, being fifty cubits high. And the king said to him: Hang him upon it. Esther 7:9
- ¤ 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
- And not content with these things, she fell down at the king's feet and wept, and speaking to him besought him, that he would give orders that the malice of Aman the Agagite, and his most wicked devices which he had invented against the Jews, should be of no effect. Esther 8:3
- 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
- And said: If it please the king, and if I have found favour in his sight, and my request be not disagreeable to him, I beseech thee, that the former letters of Aman the traitor and enemy of the Jews, by which he commanded that they should be destroyed in all the king's provinces, may be reversed by new letters. Esther 8:5
- And king Assuerus answered Esther the queen, and Mardochai the Jew: I have given Aman's house to Esther, and I have commanded him to be hanged on a gibbet, because he durst lay hands on the Jews. Esther 8:7
- 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
- For which crime both he himself that devised it, and all his kindred hang on gibbets, before the gates of this city Susan: not we, but God repaying him as he deserved. Esther 16:18
- 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 afterwards Esther went in to the king, beseeching him that his endeavours might be made void by the king's letters: and the evil that he had intended against the Jews, might return upon his own head. And so both he and his sons were hanged upon gibbets. Esther 9:25
- And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters. Job 1:2
- And the Lord said to him: Whence comest thou? And he answered and said: I have gone round about the earth, and walked through it. Job 1:7

- And his wife said to him: Dost thou still continue in thy simplicity? bless God and die. Job 2:9

- Till their colleague, Daniel, came in before me, whose name is Baltassar, according to the name of my god, who hath in him the spirit of the holy gods: and I told the dream before him. Dan. 4:8
- Let his heart be changed from man's, and let a beast's heart be given him: and let seven times pass over him. Dan. 4:16
- This is the decree by the sentence of the watchers, and the word and demand of the holy ones: till the living know, that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men: and he will give it to whomsoever it shall please him, and he will appoint the basest man over it. Dan. 4:17
- 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
- And whereas the king saw a watcher, and a holy one come down from heaven, and say: Cut down the tree, and destroy it, but leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, and let it be bound with iron and brass, among the grass without, and let it be sprinkled with the dew of heaven, and let his feeding be with the wild beasts, till seven times pass over him. Dan. 4:23
- 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
- And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing before him: for he doth according to his will, as well with the powers of heaven, as among the inhabitants of the earth: and there is none that can resist his hand, and say to him: Why hast thou done it? Dan. 4:35
- 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
- There is a man in thy kingdom that hath the spirit of the holy gods in him: and in the days of thy father knowledge and wisdom were found in him: for king Nabuchodonosor, thy father, appointed him prince of the wise men, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers, thy father, I say, O king: Dan. 5:11
- Because a greater spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, and interpretation of dreams, and shewing of secrets, and resolving of difficult things, were found in him, that is, in Daniel: whom the king named Baltassar. Now, therefore, let Daniel be called for, and he will tell the interpretation. Dan. 5:12
- 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
- And for the greatness that he gave to him, all people, tribes, and languages trembled, and were afraid of him: whom he would, he slew: and whom he would, he destroyed: and whom he would, he set up: and whom he would, he brought down. Dan. 5:19
- 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
- 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
- Then the princes, and the governors, craftily suggested to the king, and spoke thus unto him: King Darius, live for ever: Dan. 6:6
- Wherefore those men carefully watching him, found Daniel praying and making supplication to his God. Dan. 6:11
- 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
- But those men perceiving the king's design, said to him: Know thou, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, that no decree which the king hath made, may be altered. Dan. 6:15
- Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of the lions. And the king said to Daniel: Thy God, whom thou always servest, he will deliver thee. Dan. 6:16
- 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
- And coming near to the den, cried with a lamentable voice to Daniel, and said to him: Daniel, servant of the living God, hath thy God, whom thou servest always, been able, thinkest thou, to deliver thee from the lions? Dan. 6:20
- My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut up the mouths of the lions, and they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him justice hath been found in me: yea, and before thee, O king, I have done no offence. Dan. 6:22
- 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
- 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
- The king also worshipped him, and went every day to adore him: but Daniel adored his God. And the king said to him: Why dost thou not adore Bel? Dan. 14:3
- And he answered, and said to him: Because I do not worship idols made with hands, but the living God, that created heaven and earth, and hath power over all flesh. Dan. 14:4
- And the king said to him: Doth not Bel seem to thee to be a living god? Seest thou not how much he eateth and drinketh every day? Dan. 14:5
- And the king arose early in the morning, and Daniel with him. Dan. 14:15
- Then he took the priests, and their wives, and their children: and they shewed him the private doors by which they came in, and consumed the things that were on the table. Dan. 14:20
- The king, therefore, put them to death, and delivered Bel into the power of Daniel: who destroyed him and his temple. Dan. 14:21
- And there was a great dragon in that place, and the Babylonians worshipped him. Dan. 14:22
- And the king said to Daniel: Behold, thou canst not say now, that this is not a living god: adore him, therefore. Dan. 14:23
- Then Daniel took pitch, and fat, and hair, and boiled them together: and he made lumps, and put them into the dragon's mouth, and the dragon burst asunder. And he said: Behold him whom you worshipped. Dan. 14:26
- And the king saw that they pressed upon him violently: and being constrained by necessity: he delivered Daniel to them. Dan. 14:29
- And they cast him into the den of lions, and he was there six days. Dan. 14:30
- And the angel of the Lord took him by the top of his head, and carried him by the hair of his head, and set him in Babylon, over the den, in the force of his spirit. Dan. 14:35
- And the king cried out with a loud voice, saying: Great art thou, O Lord, the God of Daniel. And he drew him out of the lions' den. Dan. 14:40
- But those that had been the cause of his destruction, he cast into the den, and they were devoured in a moment before him. Dan. 14:41
- A swift stream of fire issued forth from before him: thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times a hundred thousand stood before him: the judgment sat, and the books were opened. Dan. 7:10
- I beheld, therefore, in the vision of the night, and lo, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and he came even to the ancient of days: and they presented him before him. Dan. 7:13
- And he gave him power, and glory, and a kingdom: and all peoples, tribes, and tongues shall serve him: his power is an everlasting power that shall not be taken away: and his kingdom that shall not be destroyed. Dan. 7:14
- I went near to one of them that stood by, and asked the truth of him concerning all these things, and he told me the interpretation of the words, and instructed me: Dan. 7:16
- And that the kingdom, and power, and the greatness of the kingdom, under the whole heaven, may be given to the people of the saints of the most High: whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all kings shall serve him, and shall obey him. Dan. 7:27
- I saw the ram pushing with his horns against the west, and against the north, and against the south: and no beasts could withstand him, nor be delivered out of his hand: and he did according to his own will, and became great. Dan. 8:4
- And he went up to the ram that had the horns, which I had seen standing before the gate, and he ran towards him in the force of his strength. Dan. 8:6
- 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 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 he said to him: Unto evening and morning two thousand three hundred days: and the sanctuary shall be cleansed. Dan. 8:14

- And they believed him. And he took threescore of them, and slew them in one day, according to the word that is written: 1 Ma. 7:16
- And Bacchides removed the camp from Jerusalem, and pitched in Bethzecha: and he sent, and took many of them that were fled away from him, and some of the people he killed, and threw them into a great pit. 1 Ma. 7:19

- Moreover, concerning the evils that Demetrius, the king, hath done against them, we have written to him, saying: Why hast thou made thy yoke heavy upon our friends and allies, the Jews. 1 Ma. 8:31
- Now Judas had pitched his tents in Laisa, and three thousand chosen men with him: 1 Ma. 9:5
- 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
- But they dissuaded him, saying: We shall not be able, but let us save our lives now, and return to our brethren, and then we will fight against them: for we are but few. 1 Ma. 9:9
- 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 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 Jonathan and Simon took Judas, their brother, and buried him in the sepulchre of their fathers, in the city of Modin. 1 Ma. 9:19
- And all the people of Israel bewailed him with great lamentation, and they mourned for him many days. 1 Ma. 9:20
- Since thy brother Judas died there is not a man like him to go forth against our enemies, Bacchides, and them that are the enemies of our nation. 1 Ma. 9:29
- So Jonathan took upon him the government at that time, and rose up in the place of Judas, his brother 1 Ma. 9:31
- And Bacchides had knowledge of it, and sought to kill him. 1 Ma. 9:32
- And Jonathan stretched forth his hand to strike Bacchides, but he turned away from him backwards. 1 Ma. 9:47
- And Jonathan, and they that were with him, leapt into the Jordan, and swam over the Jordan to them. 1 Ma. 9:48
- And all the wicked held a council, saying: Behold Jonathan, and they that are with him, dwell at ease and without fear: now, therefore, let us bring Bacchides hither, and he shall take them all in one night. 1 Ma. 9:58
- So they went, and gave him counsel. 1 Ma. 9:59
- 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 Jonathan, and Simon, and they that were with him, retired into Bethbessen, which is in the desert: and he repaired the breaches thereof, and they fortified it. 1 Ma. 9:62
- But Simon, and they that were with him, sallied out of the city, and burnt the engines, 1 Ma. 9:67
- And they fought against Bacchides, and he was discomfited by them: and they afflicted him exceedingly, for his counsel, and his enterprise was in vain. 1 Ma. 9:68
- And he was angry with the wicked men that had given him counsel to come into their country, and he slew many of them: and he purposed to return with the rest into their country. 1 Ma. 9:69
- And Jonathan had knowledge of it, and he sent ambassadors to him to make peace with him, and to restore to him the prisoners. 1 Ma. 9:70
- And he accepted it willingly, and did according to his words, and swore that he would do him no harm all the days of his life. 1 Ma. 9:71
- And he restored to him the prisoners which he before had taken out of the land of Juda: and he returned, and went away into his own country, and he came no more into their borders. 1 Ma. 9:72
- ¤ Now in the hundred and sixtieth year, Alexander, the son of Antiochus, surnamed the Illustrious, came up and took Ptolemais, and they received him, and he reigned there. 1 Ma. 10:1
- And king Demetrius heard of it, and gathered together an exceeding great army, and went forth against him to fight. 1 Ma. 10:2
- And Demetrius sent a letter to Jonathan, with peaceable words, to magnify him. 1 Ma. 10:3
- For he said: Let us first make a peace with him, before he make one with Alexander against us. 1 Ma. 10:4
- For he will remember all the evils that we have done against him, and against his brother, and against his nation. 1 Ma. 10:5
- And he gave him authority to gather together an army, and to make arms, and that he should be his confederate: and the hostages that were in the castle, he commanded to be delivered to him. 1 Ma. 10:6
- And they were struck with great fear, because they heard that the king had given him authority to gather together an army. 1 Ma. 10:8
- And king Alexander heard of the promises that Demetrius had made Jonathan: and they told him of the battles, and the worthy acts that he and his brethren had done, and the labours that they had endured. 1 Ma. 10:15
- And he said: Shall we find such another man? now, therefore, we will make him our friend and our confederate. 1 Ma. 10:16
- So he wrote a letter, and sent it to him according to these words, saying: 1 Ma. 10:17
- Now therefore, we make thee this day high priest of thy nation, and that thou be called the king's friend, (and he sent him a purple robe, and a crown of gold) and that thou be of one mind with us in our affairs, and keep friendship with us. 1 Ma. 10:20
- And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped. 1 Ma. 10:47
- And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close. 1 Ma. 10:49
- And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom: 1 Ma. 10:53
- And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter, Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais with great glory, after the manner of kings. 1 Ma. 10:58
- And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him. 1 Ma. 10:59
- And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him, to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them. 1 Ma. 10:61
- And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself. 1 Ma. 10:62
- And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause. 1 Ma. 10:63
- So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away. 1 Ma. 10:64
- And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor, and partaker of his dominion. 1 Ma. 10:65
- 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 they that were in the city being affrighted, opened the gates to him: so Jonathan took Joppe. 1 Ma. 10:76
- 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
- Then Simon drew forth his army, and attacked the legion: for the horsemen were wearied: and they were discomfited by him, and fled. 1 Ma. 10:82
- And Jonathan, removed his army from thence and camped against Ascalon: and they went out of the city to meet him with great honour. 1 Ma. 10:86
- And he sent him a buckle of gold, as the custom is, to be given to such as are of the royal blood. And he gave him Accaron, and all the borders thereof, in possession. 1 Ma. 10:89
- And he went out into Syria with peaceable words and they opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law. 1 Ma. 11:2
- And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof, that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way. 1 Ma. 11:4
- And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace. 1 Ma. 11:5
- For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me. 1 Ma. 11:10
- And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom, 1 Ma. 11:11
- And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle: and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight. 1 Ma. 11:15
- 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 certain wicked men of his nation made complaints against him. 1 Ma. 11:25
- And the king treated him as his predecessors had done before: and he exalted him in the sight of all his friends. 1 Ma. 11:26
- And he confirmed him in the high priesthood and all the honours he had before, and he made him the chief of his friends. 1 Ma. 11:27
- And Jonathan requested of the king that he would make Judea free from tribute, and the three governments, and Samaria, and the confines thereof: and he promised him three hundred talents. 1 Ma. 11:28
- 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
- And he pressed him much to deliver him to him, that he might be king in his father's place: and he told him all that Demetrius had done, and how his soldiers hated him. And he remained there many days. 1 Ma. 11:40
- 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
- And the king called the Jews to his assistance: and they came to him all at once, and they all dispersed themselves through the city. 1 Ma. 11:47
- So king Demetrius sat in the throne of his kingdom: and the land was quiet before him. 1 Ma. 11:52
- And he falsified all whatsoever he had said, and alienated himself from Jonathan, and did not reward him according to the benefits he had received from him, but gave him great trouble. 1 Ma. 11:53
- 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 there assembled unto him all the hands which Demetrius had sent away, and they fought against Demetrius who turned his back and fled. 1 Ma. 11:55
- And he sent him vessels of gold for his service, and he gave him leave to drink in gold, and to be clothed in purple, and to wear a golden buckle: 1 Ma. 11:58
- Then Jonathan went forth, and passed through the cities beyond the river, and all the forces of Syria gathered themselves to him to help him, and he came to Ascalon, and they met him honourably out of the city. 1 Ma. 11:60
- And he went from thence to Gaza: and they that were in Gaza shut him out: and he besieged it, and burnt all the suburbs round about, and took the spoils. 1 Ma. 11:61
- And Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come treacherously to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great army, purposing to remove him from the affairs of the kingdom. 1 Ma. 11:63
- And they desired him to make peace, and he granted it them: and he cast them out from thence, and took the city, and placed a garrison in it. 1 Ma. 11:66
- And behold the army of the strangers met him in the plain, and they laid an ambush for him in the mountains: but he went out against them. 1 Ma. 11:68
- And they of his part that fled saw this, and they turned again to him, and they all with him pursued the enemies, even to Cades, to their own camp, and they came even thither. 1 Ma. 11:73
- ¤ And Jonathan saw that the time served him, and he chose certain men, and sent them to Rome, to confirm and to renew the amity with them: 1 Ma. 12:1
- Now Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come again with a greater army than before to fight against him. 1 Ma. 12:24
- And he sent spies into their camp, and they came back, and brought him word that they designed to come upon them in the night. 1 Ma. 12:26
- But Jonathan, and they that were with him, knew it not till the morning: for they saw the lights burning. 1 Ma. 12:29
- Fearing lest Jonathan would not suffer him, but would fight against him: he sought to seize upon him, and to kill him. So he rose up and came to Bethsan. 1 Ma. 12:40
- And Jonathan went out to meet him with forty thousand men chosen for battle, and came to Bethsan. 1 Ma. 12:41
- Now when Tryphon saw that Jonathan came with a great army, he durst not stretch forth his hand against him. 1 Ma. 12:42
- But received him with honour, and commended him to all his friends, and gave him presents: and he commanded his troops to obey him, as himself. 1 Ma. 12:43
- And Jonathan believed him, and did as he said: and sent away his army, and they departed into the land of Juda: 1 Ma. 12:46
- But he kept with him three thousand men: of whom he sent two thousand into Galilee, and one thousand went with him. 1 Ma. 12:47
- Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, they of Ptolemais shut the gates of the city, and took him: and all them that came in with him they slew with the sword. 1 Ma. 12:48
- But they, when they understood that Jonathan, and all that were with him, were taken and slain, encouraged one another, and went out ready for battle. 1 Ma. 12:50
- Whereupon they all came peaceably into the land of Juda and they bewailed Jonathan, and them that had been with him, exceedingly: and Israel mourned with great lamentation. 1 Ma. 12:52
- And he sent Jonathan, the son of Absalom, and with him a new army, into Joppe, and he cast out them that were in it, and himself remained there. 1 Ma. 13:11
- And 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 now send a hundred talents of silver, and his two sons for hostages, that when he is set at liberty he may not revolt from us, and we will release him. 1 Ma. 13:16
- Now Simon knew that he spoke deceitfully to him; nevertheless, he ordered the money and the children to be sent, lest he should bring upon himself a great hatred of the people of Israel, who might have said: 1 Ma. 13:17
- And all Israel bewailed him with great lamentation: and they mourned for him many days. 1 Ma. 13:26
- But Tryphon, when he was upon a journey with the young king, Antiochus, treacherously slew him. 1 Ma. 13:31
- 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
- ¤ In the year one hundred and seventy-two king Demetrius assembled his army, and went into Media to get him succours to fight against Tryphon. 1 Ma. 14:1
- 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 he went, and defeated the army of Demetrius: and took him, and brought him to Arsaces, and he put him into custody. 1 Ma. 14:3
- 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
- They wrote to him in tables of brass, to renew the friendship and alliance which they had made with Judas and with Jonathan, his brethren. 1 Ma. 14:18
- For he hath restored his brethren, and hath driven away in fight the enemies of Israel from them: and they decreed him liberty, and registered it in tables of brass, and set it upon pillars in mount Sion. 1 Ma. 14:26
- And the people seeing the acts of Simon, and to what glory he meant to bring his nation, made him their prince and high priest, because he had done all these things, and for the justice and faith which he kept to his nation, and for that he sought by all means to advance his people. 1 Ma. 14:35
- And king Demetrius confirmed him in the high priesthood. 1 Ma. 14:38
- According to these things he made him his friend, and glorified him with great glory. 1 Ma. 14:39
- And that it should not be lawful for any of the people, or of the priests, to disannul any of these things, or to gainsay his words, or to call together an assembly in the country without him: or to be clothed with purple, or to wear a buckle of gold. 1 Ma. 14:44
- In the year one hundred and seventy-four, Antiochus entered into the land of his fathers, and all the forces assembled to him, so that few were left with Tryphon. 1 Ma. 15:10
- And king Antiochus pursued after him, and he fled along by the sea coast and came to Dora. 1 Ma. 15:11
- For he perceived that evils were gathered together upon him, and his troops had forsaken him. 1 Ma. 15:12
- And Numenius, and they that had been with him, came from the city of Rome, having letters written to the kings, and countries, the contents whereof were these: 1 Ma. 15:15
- And Simon sent to him two thousand chosen men to aid him, silver also, and gold, and abundance of furniture. 1 Ma. 15:26
- And he would not receive them, but broke all the covenant that he had made with him before, and alienated himself from him. 1 Ma. 15:27
- And he sent to him Athenobius, one of his friends, to treat with him, saying: You hold Joppe and Gazara, and the castle that is in Jerusalem, which are cities of my kingdom: 1 Ma. 15:28
- 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
- And as to thy complaints concerning Joppe and Gazara, they did great harm to the people, and to our country: yet for these we will give a hundred talents. And Athenobius answered him not a word. 1 Ma. 15:35
- 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 the king appointed Cendebeus captain of the sea coast, and gave him an army of footmen and horsemen. 1 Ma. 15:38
- And he commanded him to march with his army towards Judea: and he commanded him to build up Gedor, and to fortify the gates of the city, and to war against the people. But the king himself pursued after Tryphon. 1 Ma. 15:39
- And he placed there horsemen, and an army: that they might issue forth, and make incursions upon the ways of Judea, as the king had commanded him. 1 Ma. 15:41
- And he and his people pitched their camp over against them, and he saw that the people were afraid to go over the river, so he went over first: then the men seeing him, passed over after him. 1 Ma. 16:6
- And when Simon and his sons had drunk plentifully, Ptolemee and his men rose up, and took their weapons, and entered into the banqueting place, and slew him, and his two sons, and some of his servants. 1 Ma. 16:16
- And Ptolemee wrote these things, and sent to the king that he should send him an army to aid him, and he would deliver him the country, and their cities, and tributes. 1 Ma. 16:18
- And he sent others to Gazara to kill John: and to the tribunes he sent letters to come to him, and that he would give them silver, and gold, and gifts. 1 Ma. 16:19
- But when he heard it, he was exceedingly afraid: and he apprehended the men that came to kill him, and he put them to death: for he knew that they sought to make him away. 1 Ma. 16:22
- And give you all a heart to worship him, and to do his will with a great heart, and a willing mind. 2 Ma. 1:3
- Having been delivered by God out of great dangers, we give him great thanks, forasmuch as we have been in war with such a king. 2 Ma. 1:11
- 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
- Then he bade them draw it up, and bring it to him: and the priest, Nehemias, commanded the sacrifices that were laid on, to be sprinkled with the same water, both the wood, and the things that were laid upon it. 2 Ma. 1:21
- 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
- Then some of them that followed him, came up to mark the place: but they could not find it. 2 Ma. 2:6
- But to pursue brevity of speech, and to avoid nice declarations of things, is to be granted to him that maketh an abridgment. 2 Ma. 2:32
- 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
- Then the high priest told him that these were sums deposited, and provisions for the subsistence of the widows and the fatherless: 2 Ma. 3:10
- And the priests prostrated themselves before the altar in their priests' vestments, and called upon him from heaven, who made the law concerning things given to be kept, that he would preserve them safe, for them that had deposited them. 2 Ma. 3:15
- For the man was so compassed with sadness and horror of the body, that it was manifest to them that beheld him, what sorrow he had in his heart. 2 Ma. 3:17
- But the spirit of the Almighty God gave a great evidence of his presence, so that all that had presumed to obey him, falling down by the power of God, were struck with fainting and dread. 2 Ma. 3:24
- For there appeared to them a horse, with a terrible rider upon him, adorned with a very rich covering: and he ran fiercely and struck Heliodorus with his fore feet, and he that sat upon him seemed to have armour of gold. 2 Ma. 3:25
- Moreover there appeared two other young men, beautiful and strong, bright and glorious, and in comely apparel: who stood by him, on either side, and scourged him without ceasing with many stripes. 2 Ma. 3:26
- And Heliodorus suddenly fell to the ground, and they took him up, covered with great darkness, and having put him into a litter, they carried him out. 2 Ma. 3:27
- 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
- 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
- So Heliodorus, after he had offered a sacrifice to God, and made great vows to him, that had granted him life, and given thanks to Onias, taking his troops with him, returned to the king. 2 Ma. 3:35
- If thou hast any enemy, or traitor to thy king dom, send him thither, and thou shalt receive him again scourged, if so be he escape: for there is undoubtedly in that place a certain power of God. 2 Ma. 3:38
- 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
- And went to the king, promising him three hundred and sixty talents of silver, and out of other revenues fourscore talents. 2 Ma. 4:8
- Besides this he promised also a hundred and fifty more, if he might have license to set him up a place for exercise, and a place for youth, and to entitle them that were at Jerusalem, Antiochians. 2 Ma. 4:9
- 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
- Three years afterwards Jason sent Menelaus, brother of the aforesaid Simon, to carry money to the king, and to bring answers from him concerning certain necessary affairs. 2 Ma. 4:23
- For to him appertained the gathering of the taxes: wherefore they were both called before the king. 2 Ma. 4:28
- Which when Onias understood most certainly, he reproved him, keeping himself in a safe place at Antioch, beside Daphne. 2 Ma. 4:33
- Whereupon Menelaus coming to Andronicus, desired him to kill Onias. And he went to Onias, and gave him his right hand with an oath, and (though he were suspected by him) persuaded him to come forth out of the sanctuary, and immediately slew him, without any regard to justice. 2 Ma. 4:34
- 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
- And being inflamed to anger, he commanded Andronicus to be stripped of his purple, and to be led about through all the city: and that in the same place wherein he had committed the impiety against Onias, the sacrilegious wretch should be put to death, the Lord repaying him his deserved punishment. 2 Ma. 4:38
- And many of them were wounded, and some struck down to the ground, but all were put to flight: and as for the sacrilegious fellow himself, they slew him beside the treasury. 2 Ma. 4:42
- And when the king was come to Tyre, three men were sent from the ancients to plead the cause before him. 2 Ma. 4:44
- But Menelaus being convicted, promised Ptolemee to give him much money to persuade the king to favour him. 2 Ma. 4:45
- 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
- He left also governors to afflict the people: at Jerusalem, Philip, a Phrygian by birth, but in manners more barbarous than he that set him there: 2 Ma. 5:22
- 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
- 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
- That by so doing he might be delivered from death; and for the sake of their old friendship with the man, they did him this courtesy. 2 Ma. 6:22
- And they that led him, and had been a little before more mild, were changed to wrath for the words he had spoken, which they thought were uttered out of arrogancy. 2 Ma. 6:29
- He commanded to cut out the tongue of him that had spoken first: and the skin of his head being drawn off, to chop off also the extremities of his hands and feet, the rest of his brethren and his mother looking on. 2 Ma. 7:4
- 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
- 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 said with confidence: These I have from heaven, but for the laws of God I now despise them, because I hope to receive them again from him. 2 Ma. 7:11
- So that the king, and they that were with him, wondered at the young man's courage, because he esteemed the torments as nothing. 2 Ma. 7:12
- 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
- And when they had brought the fifth, they tormented him. But he, looking upon the king, 2 Ma. 7:15
- After him they brought the sixth, and he being ready to die, spoke thus: Be not deceived without cause: for we suffer these things for ourselves, having sinned against our God, and things worthy of admiration are done to us: 2 Ma. 7:18
- 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
- So bending herself towards him, mocking the cruel tyrant, she said in her own language: My son have pity upon me, that bore thee nine months in my womb, and gave thee suck three years, and nourished thee, and brought thee up unto this age. 2 Ma. 7:27
- 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
- ¤ But Judas Machabeus, and they that were with him, went privately into the towns: and calling together their kinsmen and friends, and taking unto them such as continued in the Jews' religion, they assembled six thousand men. 2 Ma. 8:1
- 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
- Then Philip seeing that the man gained ground by little and little, and that things for the most part succeeded prosperously with him, wrote to Ptolemee, the governor of Celesyria and Phenicia, to send aid to the king's affairs. 2 Ma. 8:8
- And he with all speed sent Nicanor, the son of Patroclus, one of his special friends, giving him no fewer than twenty thousand armed men of different nations, to root out the whole race of the Jews, joining also with him Gorgias, a good soldier, and of great experience in matters of war. 2 Ma. 8:9
- 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
- But Machabeus calling together seven thousand that were with him, exhorted them not to be reconciled to the enemies, nor to fear the multitude of the enemies who came wrongfully against them, but to fight manfully: 2 Ma. 8:16
- And when they kept the feast of the victory at Jerusalem, they burnt Callisthenes, that had set fire to the holy gates, who had taken refuge in a certain house, rendering to him a worthy reward for his impieties: 2 Ma. 8:33
- And he that had promised to levy the tribute for the Romans, by the means of the captives of Jerusalem, now professed that the Jews had God for their protector, and therefore they could not be hurt, because they followed the laws appointed by him. 2 Ma. 8:36
- And swelling with anger, he thought to revenge upon the Jews the injury done by them that had put him to flight. And therefore he commanded his chariot to be driven, without stopping in his journey, the judgment of heaven urging him forward, because he had spoken so proudly, that he would come to Jerusalem, and make it a common burying place of the Jews. 2 Ma. 9:4
- But the Lord, the God of Israel, that seeth all things, struck him with an incurable and an invisible plague. For as soon as he had ended these words, a dreadful pain in his bowels came upon him, and bitter torments of the inner parts. 2 Ma. 9:5
- 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
- But considering that my father also, at what time he led an army into the higher countries, appointed who should reign after him: 2 Ma. 9:23
- Moreover, considering that neighbouring princes, and borderers, wait for opportunities, and expect what shall be the event, I have appointed my son, Antiochus, king, whom I often recommended to many of you, when I went into the higher provinces: and I have written to him what I have joined here below. 2 Ma. 9:25
- 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
- ¤ But Machabeus, and they that were with him, by the protection of the Lord, recovered the temple and the city again. 2 Ma. 10:1
- And when they had done these things, they besought the Lord, lying prostrate on the ground, that they might no more fall into such evils; but if they should at any time sin, that they might be chastised by him more gently, and not be delivered up to barbarians and blasphemous men. 2 Ma. 10:4
- Therefore they now carried boughs and green branches and palms, for him that had given them good success in cleansing his place. 2 Ma. 10:7
- But being accused for this to Eupator by his friends, and being oftentimes called traitor, because he had left Cyprus, which Philometor had committed to him, and coming over to Antiochus the Illustrious, had revolted also from him, he put an end to his life by poison. 2 Ma. 10:13
- But Gorgias, who was governor of the holds, taking with him the strangers, often fought against the Jews. 2 Ma. 10:14
- But Machabeus, and they that were with him, when he drew near, prayed to the Lord, sprinkling earth upon their heads, and girding their loins with haircloth, 2 Ma. 10:25
- And lying prostrate at the foot of the altar, besought him to be merciful to them, and to be an enemy to their enemies, and an adversary to their adversaries, as the law saith. 2 Ma. 10:26
- Two of them took Machabeus between them, and covered him on every side with their arms, and kept him safe; but cast darts and fireballs against the enemy, so that they fell down, being both confounded with blindness, and filled with trouble. 2 Ma. 10:30
- Then Machabeus, and they that were with him cheerfully laid siege to the fortress four days. 2 Ma. 10:33
- But when Machabeus, and they that were with him, understood that the strong holds were besieged, they and all the people besought the Lord with lamentations and tears, that he would send a good angel to save Israel. 2 Ma. 11:6
- Then Machabeus himself first taking his arms, exhorted the rest to expose themselves together with him, to the danger, and to succour their brethren. 2 Ma. 11:7
- Therefore whatsoever things could be reported to the king, I have represented to him: and he hath granted as much as the matter permitted. 2 Ma. 11:18
- But as soon as Judas heard of this cruelty done to his countrymen, he commanded the men that were with him: and after having called upon God, the just judge, 2 Ma. 12:5
- And after a hard fight, in which, by the help of God, they got the victory, the rest of the Arabians being overcome, besought Judas for peace, promising to give him pastures, and to assist him in other things. 2 Ma. 12:11
- But as for Timotheus, they found him not in those places, for before he had dispatched any thing he went back, having left a very strong garrison in a certain hold: 2 Ma. 12:18
- And Machabeus having set in order about him six thousand men, and divided them by bands, went forth against Timotheus, who had with him a hundred and twenty thousand footmen, and two thousand five hundred horsemen. 2 Ma. 12:20
- 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
- And Timotheus himself fell into the hands of the band of Dositheus and Sosipater, and with many prayers he besought them to let him go with his life, because he had the parents and brethren of many of the Jews, who, by his death, might happen to be deceived. 2 Ma. 12:24

- And he said: Therefore did I say to you that no man can come to me, unless it be given him by my Father. Jn. 6:65
- After this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him. Jn. 6:66
- And Simon Peter answered him: Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life. Jn. 6:68
- 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
- ¤ After these things, Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him. Jn. 7:1
- And his brethren said to, him: Pass from hence and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou dost. Jn. 7:3
- For neither did his brethren believe in him. Jn. 7:5
- The Jews therefore sought him on the festival day and said: Where is he? Jn. 7:11
- 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
- Yet no man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews. Jn. 7:13
- If any man will do the will of him, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. Jn. 7:17
- He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true and there is no injustice in him. Jn. 7:18
- And behold, he speaketh openly: and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers known for a truth that this is the Christ? Jn. 7:26
- I know him, because I am from him: and he hath sent me. Jn. 7:29
- They sought therefore to apprehend him: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come. Jn. 7:30
- But of the people many believed in him and said: When the Christ cometh, shall he do more miracles than these which this man doth? Jn. 7:31
- The Pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning him: and the rulers and Pharisees sent ministers to apprehend him. Jn. 7:32
- Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while I am with you: and then I go to him that sent me. Jn. 7:33
- The Jews therefore said among themselves: Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? Will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles and teach the Gentiles? Jn. 7:35
- And on the last, and great day of the festivity, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any man thirst, let him come to me and drink. Jn. 7:37
- 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
- So there arose a dissension among the people because of him. Jn. 7:43
- And some of them would have apprehended him: but no man laid hands upon him. Jn. 7:44
- The ministers therefore came to the chief priests and the Pharisees. And they said to them: Why have you not brought him? Jn. 7:45
- Hath any one of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees? Jn. 7:48
- Nicodemus said to them (he that came to him by night, who was one of them): Jn. 7:50
- Doth our law judge any man, unless it first hear him and know what he doth? Jn. 7:51
- They answered and said to him: Art thou also a Galilean? Search the scriptures, and see that out of Galilee a prophet riseth not. Jn. 7:52
- And early in the morning he came again into the temple: and all the people came to him. And sitting down he taught them. Jn. 8:2
- And the scribes and Pharisees bring unto him a woman taken in adultery: and they set her in the midst, Jn. 8:3
- And said to him: Master, this woman was even now taken in adultery. Jn. 8:4
- And this they said tempting him, that they might accuse him. But Jesus bowing himself down, wrote with his finger on the ground. Jn. 8:6
- When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. Jn. 8:7
- The Pharisees therefore said to him: Thou givest testimony of thyself. Thy testimony is not true. Jn. 8:13
- They said therefore to him: Where is thy Father? Jesus answered: Neither me do you know, nor my Father. If you did know me, perhaps you would know my Father also. Jn. 8:19
- 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
- They said therefore to him: Who art thou? Jesus said to them: The beginning, who also speak unto you. Jn. 8:25
- Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world. Jn. 8:26
- And he that sent me is with me: and he hath not left me alone. For I do always the things that please him. Jn. 8:29
- When he spoke these things, many believed in him. Jn. 8:30
- Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed. Jn. 8:31
- They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham: and we have never been slaves to any man. How sayest thou: You shall be free? Jn. 8:33
- They answered and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham. Jn. 8:39
- You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God. Jn. 8:41
- 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
- The Jews therefore answered and said to him: Do not we say well that thou art a Samaritan and hast a devil? Jn. 8:48
- And you have not known him: but I know him. And if I shall say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him and do keep his word. Jn. 8:55
- The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old. And hast thou seen Abraham? Jn. 8:57
- They took up stones therefore to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple. Jn. 8:59
- And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man or his parents, that he should be born blind? Jn. 9:2
- Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. Jn. 9:3
- I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. Jn. 9:4
- And said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is interpreted, Sent. He went therefore and washed: and he came seeing. Jn. 9:7
- 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
- Some said: This is he. But others said: No, but he is like him. But he said: I am he. Jn. 9:9
- They said therefore to him: How were thy eyes opened? Jn. 9:10
- And they said to him: Where is he? He saith: I know not. Jn. 9:12
- They bring him that had been blind to the Pharisees. Jn. 9:13
- Again therefore the Pharisees asked him how he had received his sight. But he said to them: He put clay upon my eyes: and I washed: and I see. Jn. 9:15
- They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him that hath opened thy eyes? And he said: He is a prophet. Jn. 9:17
- The Jews then did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight, Jn. 9:18
- But how he now seeth, we know not: or who hath opened his eyes, we know not. Ask himself: he is of age: Let him speak for himself. Jn. 9:21
- These things his parents said, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had already agreed among themselves that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue. Jn. 9:22
- They therefore called the man again that had been blind and said to him: Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner. Jn. 9:24
- They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy eyes? Jn. 9:26
- They reviled him therefore and said: Be thou his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses. Jn. 9:28
- Now we know that God doth not hear sinners: but if a man be a server of God and doth his, will, him he heareth. Jn. 9:31
- They answered and said to him: Thou wast wholly born in sins; and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out. Jn. 9:34
- Jesus heard that they had cast him out. And when he had found him, he said to him: Dost thou believe in the Son of God? Jn. 9:35
- He answered, and said: Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him? Jn. 9:36
- And Jesus said to him: Thou hast both seen him; and it is he that talketh with thee. Jn. 9:37
- And he said: I believe, Lord. And falling down, he adored him. Jn. 9:38
- And some of the Pharisees, who were with him, heard: and they said unto him: Are we also blind? Jn. 9:40
- To him the porter openeth: and the sheep hear his voice. And he calleth his own sheep by name and leadeth them out. Jn. 10:3
- And when he hath let out his own sheep, he goeth before them: and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice. Jn. 10:4
- But a stranger they follow not, but fly from him, because they know not the voice of strangers. Jn. 10:5
- And many of them said: He hath a devil and is mad. Why hear you him? Jn. 10:20
- The Jews therefore came round about him and said to him: How long dost thou hold our souls in suspense? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. Jn. 10:24
- The Jews then took up stones to stone him. Jn. 10:31
- The Jews answered him: For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy: and because that thou, being a, man, makest thyself God. Jn. 10:33
- Do you say of him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into the world: Thou blasphemest; because I said: I am the Son of God? Jn. 10:36
- They sought therefore to take him: and he escaped out of their hands. Jn. 10:39
- And many resorted to him: and they said: John indeed did no sign. But all things whatsoever John said of this man were true. Jn. 10:41
- And many believed in him. Jn. 10:42
- His sisters therefore sent to him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. Jn. 11:3
- The disciples say to him: Rabbi, the Jews but now sought to stone thee. And goest thou thither again? Jn. 11:8
- But if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him. Jn. 11:10
- These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth: but I go that I may awake him out of sleep. Jn. 11:11
- 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
- Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him. Jn. 11:16
- Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus was come, went to meet him: but Mary sat at home. Jn. 11:20
- Martha saith to him: I know that he shall rise again, in the resurrection at the last day. Jn. 11:24
- She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ, the Son of the living God, who art come into this world. Jn. 11:27
- She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly and cometh to him. Jn. 11:29
- 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
- And said: Where have you laid him? They say to him: Lord, come and see. Jn. 11:34
- The Jews therefore said: Behold how he loved him. Jn. 11:36
- 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
- Many therefore of the Jews, who were come to Mary and Martha and had seen the things that Jesus did, believed in him. Jn. 11:45
- If we let him alone so, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and take away our place and nation. Jn. 11:48
- From that day therefore they devised to put him to death. Jn. 11:53
- 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
- Then one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, he that was about to betray him, said: Jn. 12:4
- Because many of the Jews, by reason of him, went away and believed in Jesus. Jn. 12:11
- Took branches of palm trees and went forth to meet him and cried Hosanna. Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord, the king of Israel. Jn. 12:13
- 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
- For which reason also the people came to meet him, because they heard that he had done this miracle. Jn. 12:18
- The Pharisees therefore said among themselves: Do you see that we prevail nothing? Behold, the whole world is gone after him. Jn. 12:19
- These therefore came to Philip, who was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying: Sir, we would see Jesus. Jn. 12:21
- If any man minister to me, let him follow me: and where I am, there also shall my minister be. If any man minister to me, him will my Father honour. Jn. 12:26
- The multitude therefore that stood and heard said that it thundered. Others said: An angel spoke to him. Jn. 12:29
- The multitude answered him: We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever. And how sayest thou: The Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man? Jn. 12:34
- And whereas he had done so many miracles before them, they believed not in him: Jn. 12:37
- These things said Isaias, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him. Jn. 12:41
- However, many of the chief men also believed in him: but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, that they might not be cast out of the synagogue. Jn. 12:42
- But Jesus cried and said: He that believeth in me doth not believe in me, but in him that sent me. Jn. 12:44
- And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me. Jn. 12:45
- And if any man hear my words and keep them not, I do not judge him for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. Jn. 12:47
- He that despiseth me and receiveth not my words hath one that judgeth him. The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. Jn. 12:48
- 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
- Knowing that the Father had given him all things into his hands and that he came from God and goeth to God, Jn. 13:3
- He cometh therefore to Simon Peter. And Peter saith to him: Lord, dost thou wash my feet? Jn. 13:6
- Jesus answered and said to him: What I do, thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. Jn. 13:7
- Peter saith to him: Thou shalt never wash my feet, Jesus answered him: If I wash thee not, thou shalt have no part with me. Jn. 13:8
- Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head. Jn. 13:9
- Jesus saith to him: He that is washed needeth not but to wash his feet, but is clean wholly. And you are clean, but not all. Jn. 13:10
- For he knew who he was that would betray him; therefore he said: You are not all clean. Jn. 13:11
- Amen, amen, I say to you: The servant is not greater than his lord: neither is the apostle greater than he that sent him. Jn. 13:16
- Amen, amen, I say to you, he that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me: and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. Jn. 13:20
- Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him and said to him: Who is it of whom he speaketh? Jn. 13:24
- He therefore, leaning on the breast of Jesus, saith to him: Lord, who is it? Jn. 13:25
- And after the morsel, Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to him: That which thou dost, do quickly. Jn. 13:27
- Now no man at the table knew to what purpose he said this unto him. Jn. 13:28
- For some thought, because Judas had the purse, that Jesus had said to him: Buy those things which we have need of for the festival day: or that he should give something to the poor. Jn. 13:29
- When he therefore was gone out, Jesus said: Now is the Son of man glorified; and God is glorified in him. Jn. 13:31
- If God be glorified in him, God also will glorify him in himself: and immediately will he glorify him. Jn. 13:32
- Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered: Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now: but thou shalt follow hereafter. Jn. 13:36
- Peter saith to him: Why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee. Jn. 13:37
- Jesus answered him: Wilt thou lay down thy life for me? Amen, amen, I say to thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou deny me thrice. Jn. 13:38
- Thomas saith to him: Lord, we know not whither thou goest. And how can we know the way? Jn. 14:5
- Jesus saith to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me. Jn. 14:6
- If you had known me, you would without doubt have known my Father also: and from henceforth you shall know him. And you have seen him. Jn. 14:7
- Philip saith to him: Lord, shew us the Father; and it is enough for us. Jn. 14:8
- Jesus saith to him: Have I been so long a time with you and have you not known me? Philip, he that seeth me seeth the Father also. How sayest thou: Shew us the Father? Jn. 14:9
- The spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, nor knoweth him. But you shall know him; because he shall abide with you and shall be in you. Jn. 14:17
- He that hath my commandments and keepeth them; he it is that loveth me. And he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father: and I will love him and will manifest myself to him. Jn. 14:21
- Judas saith to him, not the Iscariot: Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself to us, and not to the world? Jn. 14:22
- Jesus answered and said to him: If any one love me, he will keep my word. And my Father will love him and we will come to him and will make our abode with him. Jn. 14:23
- I am the vine: you the branches. He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing. Jn. 15:5
- If any one abide not in me, he shall be cast forth as a branch and shall wither: and they shall gather him up and cast him into the fire: and he burneth. Jn. 15:6
- But all these things they will do to you for my name's sake: because they know not him that sent me. Jn. 15:21
- And now I go to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me: Whither goest thou? Jn. 16:5
- But I tell you the truth: it is expedient to you that I go. For if I go not, the Paraclete will not come to you: but if I go, I will send him to you. Jn. 16:7
- And Jesus knew that they had a mind to ask him. And he said to them: Of this do you inquire among yourselves, because I said: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me? Jn. 16:19
- His disciples say to him: Behold, now thou speakest plainly and speakest no proverb. Jn. 16:29
- As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he may give eternal life to all whom thou hast given him. Jn. 17:2
- And Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: because Jesus had often resorted thither together with his disciples. Jn. 18:2
- Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth and said to them: Whom seek ye? Jn. 18:4
- They answered him: Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith to them: I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them. Jn. 18:5
- Then the band and the tribune and the servants of the Jews took Jesus and bound him. Jn. 18:12
- 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
- Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world. I have always taught in the synagogue and in the temple, whither all the Jews resort: and in secret I have spoken nothing. Jn. 18:20
- Jesus answered him: If I have spoken evil, give testimony of the evil; but if well, why strikest thou me? Jn. 18:23
- And Annas sent him bound to Caiphas the high priest. Jn. 18:24
- 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
- One of the servants of the high priest (a kinsman to him whose ear Peter cut off) saith to him: Did not I see thee in the garden with him? Jn. 18:26
- They answered and said to him: If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up to thee. Jn. 18:30
- Pilate therefore said to them: Take him you, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him: It is not lawful for us to put any man to death. Jn. 18:31
- Pilate therefore went into the hall again and called Jesus and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews? Jn. 18:33
- 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
- Pilate saith to him: What is truth? And when he said this, he went out again to the Jews and saith to them: I find no cause in him. Jn. 18:38
- ¤ Then therefore Pilate took Jesus and scourged him. Jn. 19:1
- And the soldiers platting a crown of thorns, put it upon his head: and they put on him a purple garment. Jn. 19:2
- And they came to him and said: Hail, king of the Jews. And they gave him blows. Jn. 19:3
- Pilate therefore went forth again and saith to them: Behold, I bring him forth unto you, that you may know that I find no cause in him. Jn. 19:4
- When the chief priests, therefore, and the servants had seen him, they cried out, saying: Crucify him, Crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Take him you, and crucify him: for I find no cause in him. Jn. 19:6
- The Jews answered him: We have a law; and according to the law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God. Jn. 19:7
- And he entered into the hall again; and he said to Jesus: Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. Jn. 19:9
- Pilate therefore saith to him: Speakest thou not to me? Knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and I have power to release thee? Jn. 19:10
- And from henceforth Pilate sought to release him. But the Jews cried out, saying: If thou release this man, thou art not Caesar's friend. For whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar. Jn. 19:12
- But they cried out: Away with him: Away with him: Crucify him. Pilate saith to them: shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered: We have no king but Caesar. Jn. 19:15
- Then therefore he delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus and led him forth. Jn. 19:16
- Where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst. Jn. 19:18
- 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
- The soldiers therefore came: and they broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him. Jn. 19:32
- For these things were done that the scripture might be fulfilled: You shall not break a bone of him. Jn. 19:36
- And again another scripture saith: They shall look on him whom they pierced. Jn. 19:37
- She ran therefore and cometh to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved and saith to them: They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre: and we know not where they have laid him. Jn. 20:2
- Then cometh Simon Peter, following him, and went into the sepulchre: and saw the linen cloths lying, Jn. 20:6
- They say to her: Woman, why weepest thou? She saith to them: Because they have taken away my Lord: and I know not where they have laid him. Jn. 20:13
- 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
- Jesus saith to her: Mary. She turning, saith to him: Rabboni (which is to say, Master). Jn. 20:16
- The other disciples therefore said to him: We have seen the Lord. But he said to them: Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the place of the nails and put my hand into his side, I will not believe. Jn. 20:25
- Thomas answered and said to him: My Lord and my God. Jn. 20:28
- Jesus saith to him: Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen and have believed. Jn. 20:29

- 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
- When therefore they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter: Simon, son of John, lovest thou me more than these? He saith to him: Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him: Feed my lambs. Jn. 21:15
- He saith to him again: Simon, son of John, lovest thou me? He saith to him: yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him: Feed my lambs. Jn. 21:16
- 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
- And this he said, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had said this, he saith to him: Follow me. Jn. 21:19
- Him therefore when Peter had seen, he saith to Jesus: Lord, and what shall this man do? Jn. 21:21
- Jesus saith to him: So I will have him to remain till I come, what is it to thee? Follow thou me. Jn. 21:22
- This saying therefore went abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die. And Jesus did not say to him: He should not die; but: So I will have him to remain till I come, what is it to thee? Jn. 21:23
