And he saw a well in the field, and three flocks of sheep lying by it: for the beasts were watered out of it, and the mouth thereof was closed with a great stone. Gen. 29:2
But Lia was blear-eyed: Rachel was well favoured, and of a beautiful countenance. Gen. 29:17
So Jacob served seven years for Rachel: and they seemed but a few days, because of the greatness of his love. Gen. 29:20
And he, having invited a great number of his friends to the feast, made the marriage. Gen. 29:22
Giving his daughter a handmaid, named Zelpha. Now when Jacob had gone in to her according to custom, when morning was come he saw it was Lia. Gen. 29:24
And she conceived and bore a son, and called his name Ruben, saying: The Lord saw my affliction: now my husband will love me. Gen. 29:32
And again she conceived and bore a son, and said: Because the Lord heard that I was despised, he hath given this also to me: and she called his name Simeon. Gen. 29:33
The fourth time she conceived and bore a son, and said: Now will I praise the Lord: and for this she called him Juda. And she left bearing. Gen. 29:35
When her husband had gone in unto her, conceived and bore a son. Gen. 30:5
And Rachel said: The Lord hath judged for me, and hath heard my voice, giving me a son; and therefore she called his name Dan. Gen. 30:6
And when she had conceived, and brought forth a son, Gen. 30:10
She answered: Dost thou think it a small matter, that thou hast taken my husband from me, unless thou take also my son's mandrakes? Rachel said: He shall sleep with thee this night, for thy son's mandrakes. Gen. 30:15
And God heard her prayers; and she conceived: and bore a fifth son: Gen. 30:17
And said: God hath given me a reward, because I gave my handmaid to my husband. And she called his name Issachar. Gen. 30:18
And said: God hath endowed me with a good dowry; this turn also my husband will be with me, because I have borne him six sons: and therefore she called his name Zabulon. Gen. 30:20
After whom she bore a daughter, named Dina. Gen. 30:21
And she conceived, and bore a son, saying: God hath taken away my reproach. Gen. 30:23
I am the God of Bethel, where thou didst anoint the stone, and make a vow to me. Now therefore arise, and go out of this land, and return into thy native country. Gen. 31:13
And he saw in a dream God, saying to him: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob. Gen. 31:24
Suppose thou didst desire to go to thy friends, and hadst a longing after thy father's house: why hast thou stolen away my gods? Gen. 31:30
And Jacob being angry, said in a chiding manner: For what fault of mine, and for what offence on my part hast thou so hotly pursued me, Gen. 31:36
Come, therefore, let us enter into a league; that it may be for a testimony between me and thee. Gen. 31:44
And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a title. Gen. 31:45
And he said to his brethren: Bring hither stones. And they, gathering stones together, made a heap, and they ate upon it. Gen. 31:46
And Laban said: This heap shall be a witness between me and thee this day, and therefore the name thereof was called Galaad, that is, The witness heap. Gen. 31:48
Shall be a witness: this heap, I say, and the stone, be they for a testimony, if either I shall pass beyond it going towards thee, or thou shalt pass beyond it thinking harm to me. Gen. 31:52
I have oxen, and asses, and sheep, and menservants, and womenservants: and now I send a message to my lord, that I may find favour in thy sight. Gen. 32:5
And he sent them by the hands of his servants, every drove by itself, and he said to his servants: Go before me, and let there be a space between drove and drove. Gen. 32:16
Thou shalt answer: Thy servant Jacob's: he hath sent them as a present to my lord Esau; and he cometh after us. Gen. 32:18
He remained alone; and behold, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 32:24">a mana> wrestled with him till morning. Gen. 32:24
And Jacob said: Do not so I beseech thee, but if I have found favour in thy eyes, receive a little present at my hands: for I have seen thy face, as if I should have seen the countenance of God: be gracious to me, Gen. 33:10
And Jacob came to Socoth: where having built a house, and pitched tents, he called the name of the place Socoth, that is, Tents. Gen. 33:17
And he passed over to Salem, a city of the Sichemites, which is in the land of Chanaan, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria: and he dwelt by the town. Gen. 33:18
And he bought that part of the field, in which he pitched his tents, of the children of Hemor, the father of Sichem, for a hundred lambs. Gen. 33:19
Behold his sons came from the field: and hearing what had passed, they were exceeding angry, because he had done a foul thing in Israel, and committed an unlawful act, in ravishing Jacob's daughter. Gen. 34:7
And Hemor spoke to them: The soul of my son Sichem has a longing for your daughter: give her him to wife: Gen. 34:8
One thing there is for which so great a good is deferred: We must circumcise every male among us, following the manner of the nation. Gen. 34:22
They answered: Should they abuse our sister as a strumpet? Gen. 34:31
But he set up a monument of stone, in the place where God had spoken to him: pouring drink-offerings upon it, and pouring oil thereon: Gen. 35:14
And Jacob erected a pillar over her sepulchre: this is the pillar of Rachel's monument, to this day. Gen. 35:20
And the days of Isaac were a hundred and eighty years. Gen. 35:28
And he had a son Dison, and a daughter Oolibama. Gen. 36:25
And the kings that ruled in the land of Edom, before the children of Israel had a king, were these: Gen. 36:31
And these are his generations: Joseph, when he was sixteen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren, being but a boy: and he was with the sons of Bala and of Zelpha his father's wives: and he accused his brethren to his father of a most wicked crime. Gen. 37:2
Now Israel loved Joseph above all his sons, because he had him in his old age: and he made him a coat of divers colours. Gen. 37:3
Now it fell out also that he told his brethren <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 37:5">a dreama>, that he had dreamed: which occasioned them to hate him the more. Gen. 37:5
He dreamed also another dream, which he told his brethren, saying: I saw in a dream, as it were the sun, and the moon, and eleven stars worshipping me. Gen. 37:9
And a man found him there wandering in the field, and asked what he sought. Gen. 37:15
And they took his coat, and dipped it in the blood of a kid, which they had killed: Gen. 37:31
And the father acknowledging it, said: It is my son's coat, an evil wild beast hath eaten him, a beast hath devoured Joseph. Gen. 37:33
And tearing his garments, he put on sackcloth, mourning for his son a long time. Gen. 37:34
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 38:0">¤a> At that time Juda went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Odollamite, named Hiras. Gen. 38:1
And he saw there the daughter of a man of Chanaan, called Sue: and taking her to wife, he went in unto her. Gen. 38:2
And she conceived, and bore a son, and called his name Her. Gen. 38:3
And conceiving again, she bore a son, and called him Onan. Gen. 38:4
She bore also a third: whom she called Sela. After whose birth, she ceased to bear any more. Gen. 38:5
And Juda took a wife for Her, his first born, whose name was Thamar. Gen. 38:6
And therefore the Lord slew him, because he did a detestable thing: Gen. 38:10
Wherefore Juda said to Thamar his daughter-in-law: Remain a widow in thy father's house, till Sela my son grow up: for he was afraid lest he also might die, as his brethren did. She went her way, and dwelt in her father's house. Gen. 38:11
And she put off the garments of her widowhood, and took a veil: and changing her dress, sat in the cross way, that leadeth to Thamnas: because Sela was grown up, and she had not been married to him. Gen. 38:14
When Juda saw her, he thought she was a harlot: for she had covered her face, lest she should be known. Gen. 38:15
He said: I will send thee a kid out of the flock. And when she said again: I will suffer what thou wilt, if thou give me a pledge, till thou send what thou promisest. Gen. 38:17
Juda said: What wilt thou have for a pledge? She answered: Thy ring and bracelet, and the staff which thou holdest in thy hand. The woman therefore at one copulation conceived. Gen. 38:18
And Juda sent a kid by his shepherd, the Odollamite, that he might receive the pledge again, which he had given to the woman: but he, not finding her, Gen. 38:20
He returned to Juda, and said to him: I have not found her; moreover, the men of that place said to me, that there never sat a harlot there. Gen. 38:22
Juda said: Let her take it to herself, surely she cannot charge us with a lie, I sent the kid which I promised: and thou didst not find her. Gen. 38:23
And behold, after three months, they told Juda, saying: Thamar, thy daughter-in-law, hath played the harlot, and she appeareth to have a big belly. And Juda said: Bring her out that she may be burnt. Gen. 38:24
And when she was ready to be brought to bed, there appeared twins in her womb: and in the very delivery of the infants, one put forth a hand, whereon the midwife tied a scarlet thread, saying: Gen. 38:27
And the Lord was with him, and he was a prosperous man in all things: and he dwelt in his master's house: Gen. 39:2
Neither knew he any other thing, but the bread which he ate. And Joseph was of a beautiful countenance, and comely to behold. Gen. 39:6
Now it happened on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house, and was doing some business, without any man with him: Gen. 39:11
She called to her the men of her house, and said to them: See, he hath brought in a Hebrew, to abuse us: he came in to me, to lie with me; and when I cried out, Gen. 39:14
For <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 39:16">a proof therefore of her fidelitya>, she kept the garment, and shewed it to her husband when he returned home: Gen. 39:16
And they both dreamed a dream the same night, according to the interpretation agreeing to themselves: Gen. 40:5
They answered: We have dreamed a dream, and there is nobody to interpret it to us. And Joseph said to them: <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 40:8">Doth not interpretation belong to God?a> Tell me what you have dreamed: Gen. 40:8
The chief butler first told his dream: I saw before me a vine, Gen. 40:9
The chief baker seeing that he had wisely interpreted the dream, said: I also dreamed a dream, That I had three baskets of meal upon my head: Gen. 40:16
After which Pharao will take thy head from thee, and hang thee on a cross, and the birds shall tear thy flesh. Gen. 40:19
The third day after this was the birthday of Pharao: and he made a great feast for his servants, and at the banquet remembered the chief butler, and the chief baker. Gen. 40:20
The other he hanged on a gibbet, that the truth of the interpreter might be shewn. Gen. 40:22
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 41:0">¤a> After two years Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood by the river, Gen. 41:1
Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come. Gen. 41:11
There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams, Gen. 41:12
And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet. Gen. 41:13
Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer. Gen. 41:16
And seven kine came up out of the river, exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture. Gen. 41:18
And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew up upon one stalk, full and very fair. Gen. 41:22
And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily. Gen. 41:32
Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt: Gen. 41:33
And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck. Gen. 41:42
And he turned himself away a little while, and wept: and returning, he spoke to them. Gen. 42:24
And when they had eaten up all the corn, which they had brought out of Egypt, Jacob said to his sons: Go again, and buy us a little food. Gen. 43:2
But they answered: The man asked us in order concerning our kindred: if our father lived: if we had a brother: and we answered him regularly, according to what he demanded: could we know that he would say: Bring hither your brother with you? Gen. 43:7
Then Israel said to them: If it must needs be so, do what you will: take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels, and carry down presents to the man, a little <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 43:11">balma>, and honey, and storax, myrrh, turpentine, and almonds. Gen. 43:11
And when he had seen them, and Benjamin with them, he commanded the steward of his house, saying: Bring in the men into the house, and kill victims, and prepare a feast: because they shall eat with me at noon. Gen. 43:16
And they being much afraid, said there one to another: Because of the money, which we carried back the first time in our sacks, we are brought in: that he may bring upon us a false accusation, and by violence make slaves of us and our asses. Gen. 43:18
And when it was set on, for Joseph apart, and for his brethren apart, for the Egyptians also that ate with him apart, (for it is unlawful for the Egyptians to eat with the Hebrews, and they think such a feast profane): Gen. 43:32
And when they were now departed out of the city, and had gone forward a little way: Joseph sending for the steward of his house, said: Arise, and pursue after the men: and when thou hast overtaken them, say to them: Why have you returned evil for good? Gen. 44:4
The cup which you have stolen, is that in which my lord drinketh, and in which he is wont to divine: you have done a very evil thing. Gen. 44:5
And they answered: Why doth our lord speak so, as though thy servants had committed so heinous a fact? Gen. 44:7
Then Juda coming nearer, said boldly: I beseech thee, my lord, let thy servant speak a word in thy ears, and be not angry with thy servant: for after Pharao thou art. Gen. 44:18
My lord. Thou didst ask thy servants the first time: Have you a father or a brother. Gen. 44:19
And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead; and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly. Gen. 44:20
And our father said: Go again, and buy us a little wheat. Gen. 44:25
One went out, and you said: A beast devoured him; and hitherto he appeareth not. Gen. 44:28
For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father. Gen. 44:34
Be not afraid, and let it not seem to you a hard case that you sold me into these countries: for God sent me before you into Egypt for your preservation. Gen. 45:5
Not by your counsel was I sent hither, but by the will of God: who hath made me as it were a father to Pharao, and lord of his whole house, and governor in all the land of Egypt. Gen. 45:8
And they told him, saying: Joseph, thy son, is living; and he is ruler in all the land of Egypt. Which when Jacob heard, he awaked as it were out of a deep sleep, yet did not believe them. Gen. 45:26
He heard him, by a vision in the night, calling him, and saying to him: Jacob, Jacob. And he answered him: Lo, here I am. Gen. 46:2
God said to him: I am the most mighty God of thy father; fear not, go down into Egypt, for I will make a great nation of thee there. Gen. 46:3
The sons of Simeon: Jamuel and Jamin and Ahod, and Jachin and Sohar, and Saul, the son of a woman of Chanaan. Gen. 46:10
He answered: The days of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty years, few, and evil, and they are not come up to the days of the pilgrimage of my fathers. Gen. 47:9
But Joseph gave a possession to his father and his brethren in Egypt, in the best place of the land, in Ramesses, as Pharao had commanded. Gen. 47:11
For in the whole world there was want of bread, and a famine had oppressed the land, more especially of Egypt and Chanaan; Gen. 47:13
Why therefore shall we die before thy eyes? we will be thine, both we and our lands: buy us to be the king's servants, and give us seed, lest for want of tillers the land be turned into a wilderness. Gen. 47:19
Except the land of the priests, which had been given them by the king: to whom also a certain allowance of food was given out of the public stores, and therefore they were not forced to sell their possessions. Gen. 47:22
From that time unto this day, in the whole land of Egypt, the fifth part is paid to the king, and it is become as a law, except the land of the priests, which was free from this covenant. Gen. 47:26
And he lived in it seventeen years: and all the days of his life came to a hundred and forty-seven years. Gen. 47:28
And said: I will cause thee to increase and multiply, and I will make of thee a multitude of people: and I will give this land to thee, and to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession. Gen. 48:4
The angel that delivereth me from all evils, bless these boys: and let my name be called upon them, and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth. Gen. 48:16
But he refusing, said: I know, my son, I know: and this also shall become a people, and shall be multiplied; but his younger brother shall be greater than he; and his seed shall grow into nations. Gen. 48:19
I give thee a portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorrhite with my sword and bow. Gen. 48:22
Let not my soul go into their counsel, nor my glory be in their assembly: because in their fury they <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 49:6">slew a man,a> and in their self-will they undermined a wall. Gen. 49:6
Juda is <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 49:9">a lion's whelpa>: to the prey, my son, thou art gone up: resting thou hast couched as a lion, and as a lioness, who shall rouse him? Gen. 49:9
The sceptre shall not be taken away from Juda, nor a ruler from his thigh, till he come that is to be sent, and he shall be the expectation of nations. Gen. 49:10
Issachar shall be a strong ass, lying down between the borders. Gen. 49:14
He saw rest that it was good: and the land that it was excellent: and he bowed his shoulder to carry, and became a servant under tribute. Gen. 49:15
Let Dan be a snake in the way, a serpent in the path, that biteth the horse's heels, that his rider may fall backward. Gen. 49:17
Nephthali, a hart let loose, and giving words of beauty. Gen. 49:21
Joseph is a growing son, a growing son and comely to behold: the daughters <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 49:22">run to and froa> upon the wall; Gen. 49:22
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ge 49:24">His bow rested upon the stronga>, and the bands of his arms and his hands were loosed, by the hands of the mighty one of Jacob: thence he came forth a pastor, the stone of Israel. Gen. 49:24
Benjamin a ravenous wolf, in the morning shall eat the prey, and in the evening shall divide the spoil. Gen. 49:27
Over against Mambre, in the land of Chanaan, which Abraham bought together with the field, of Ephron the Hethite, for a possession to bury in. Gen. 49:30
He had also in his train chariots and horsemen: and it was a great company. Gen. 50:9
And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is situated beyond the Jordan: where celebrating the exequies with a great and vehement lamentation, they spent full seven days. Gen. 50:10
And when the inhabitants of Chanaan saw this, they said: This is a great mourning to the Egyptians. And therefore the name of that place was called, The mourning of Egypt. Gen. 50:11
And carrying him into the land of Chanaan, they buried him in the double cave, which Abraham had bought together with the field for a possession of a burying place, of Ephron, the Hethite, over against Mambre. Gen. 50:13
And they sent a message to him, saying: Thy father commanded us before he died, Gen. 50:16
And he dwelt in Egypt with all his father's house; and lived a hundred and ten years. Gen. 50:22
And he died, being a hundred and ten years old. And being embalmed, he was laid in a coffin in Egypt. Gen. 50:26
In the mean time there arose a new king over Egypt, that knew not Joseph: Ex. 1:8
Commanding them: When you shall do the office of midwives to the Hebrew women, and the time of delivery is come: if it be a man child, kill it: if a woman, keep it alive. Ex. 1:16
They answered: The Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women: for they themselves are skilful in the office of a midwife; and they are delivered before we come to them. Ex. 1:19
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ex 2:0">¤a> After this there went a man of the house of Levi; and took a wife of his own kindred. Ex. 2:1
And she conceived, and bore a son: and seeing him a goodly child, hid him three months. Ex. 2:2
And when she could hide him no longer, she took a basket made of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and pitch: and put the little babe therein, and laid him in the sedges by the river's brink, Ex. 2:3
And the child's sister said to her: Shall I go, and call to thee a Hebrew woman, to nurse the babe? Ex. 2:7
And she adopted him for a son, and called him <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ex 2:10">Mosesa>, saying: Because I took him out of the water. Ex. 2:10
And Pharao heard of this word, and sought to kill Moses: but he fled from his sight, and abode in the land of <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ex 2:15">Madiana>, and he sat down by a well. Ex. 2:15
They answered: A man of Egypt delivered us from the hands of the shepherds: and he drew water also with us, and gave the sheep to drink. Ex. 2:19
And she bore him a son, whom he called <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ex 2:22">Gersama>, saying: I have been a stranger in a foreign country. And she bore another, whom he called Eliezer, saying: For the God of my father, my helper, hath delivered me out of the hand of Pharao. Ex. 2:22
Now after a long time the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel groaning, cried out because of the works: and their cry went up unto God from the works. Ex. 2:23
And <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ex 3:2">the Lord appeareda> to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire, and was not burnt. Ex. 3:2
And knowing their sorrow, I am come down to deliver them out of the hands of the Egyptians, and to bring them out of that land into a good and spacious land, into a land that floweth with milk and honey, to the places of the Chanaanite, and Hethite, and Amorrhite, and Pherezite, and Hevite, and Jebusite.

And I have said the word to bring you forth out of the affliction of Egypt, into the land of the Chanaanite, and Hethite, and Amorrhite, and Pherezite, and Hevite, and Jebusite, to a land that floweth with milk and honey. Ex. 3:17
But I know that the king of Egypt will not let you go, but by a mighty hand. Ex. 3:19
Then he said to him: What is that thou holdest in thy hand? He answered: A rod. Ex. 4:2
And the Lord said: Cast it down upon the ground. He cast it down, and it was turned into a serpent, so that Moses fled from it. Ex. 4:3

The Lord will bring upon thee a nation from afar, and from the uttermost ends of the earth, like an eagle that flyeth swiftly, whose tongue thou canst not understand, Dt. 28:49
A most insolent nation, that will shew no regard to the ancients, nor have pity on the infant, Dt. 28:50

<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 2:0">¤a> And Josue, the son of Nun, sent from Setim two men, to spy secretly: and said to them: Go, and view the land, and the city of Jericho. They went, and entered into the house of a woman that was a harlot, named Rahab, and lodged with her. Josu. 2:1
Now, therefore, swear ye to me by the Lord, that as I have shewed mercy to you, so you also will shew mercy to my father's house: and give me a true token. Josu. 2:12
Then she let them down with a cord out of a window: for her house joined close to the wall. Josu. 2:15
If, when we come into the land, this scarlet cord be a sign, and thou tie it in the window, by which thou hast let us down: and gather together thy father and mother, and brethren, and all thy kindred into thy house. Josu. 2:18
And when the priests, that carry the ark of the Lord the God of the whole earth, shall set the soles of their feet in the waters of the Jordan, the waters that are beneath shall run down and go off: and those that come from above, shall stand together upon a heap. Josu. 3:13
The waters that came down from above stood in one place, and swelling up like a mountain, were seen afar off, from the city that is called Adom, to the place of Sarthan: but those that were beneath, ran down into the sea of the wilderness, (which now is called the Dead Sea) until they wholly failed. Josu. 3:16
And he said to them: Go before the ark of the Lord your God to the midst of the Jordan, and carry from thence every man a stone on your shoulders, according to the number of the children of Israel, Josu. 4:5
That it may be a sign among you: and when your children shall ask you tomorrow, saying: What mean these stones? Josu. 4:6
You shall answer them: The waters of the Jordan ran off before the ark of the covenant of the Lord when it passed over the same: therefore were these stones set for a monument of the children of Israel forever. Josu. 4:7
And when Josue was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and saw a man standing over against him, holding a drawn sword, and he went to him, and said: Art thou one of ours, or of our adversaries? Josu. 5:13
Go round about the city all ye fighting men once a day: so shall ye do for six days. Josu. 6:3
And when the voice of the trumpet shall give a longer and broken tune, and shall sound in your ears, all the people shall shout together with a very great shout, and the walls of the city shall fall to the ground, and they shall enter in every one at the place against which they shall stand. Josu. 6:5
So the ark of the Lord went about the city once a day, and returning into the camp, abode there. Josu. 6:11
So all the people making a shout, and the trumpets sounding, when the voice and the sound thundered in the ears of the multitude, the walls forthwith fell down: and every man went up by the place that was over against him: and they took the city, Josu. 6:20
For I saw among the spoils a scarlet garment, exceeding good, and two hundred sicles of silver, and a golden rule of fifty sicles: and I coveted them, and I took them away, and hid them in the ground in the midst of my tent, and the silver I covered with the earth that I dug up. Josu. 7:21
And they gathered together upon him a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day And the wrath of the Lord was turned away from them. And the name of that place was called the Valley of <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 7:26">Achora>, until this day. Josu. 7:26
And thou shalt do to the city of Hai, and to the king thereof, as thou hast done to Jericho, and to the king thereof: but the spoils, and all the cattle, you shall take for a prey to yourselves: lay an ambush for the city behind it. Josu. 8:2
And when they were come, and were gone up over against the city, they stood on the north side of the city, between which and them there was a valley in the midst. Josu. 8:11
And they also that had taken and set the city on fire, issuing out of the city to meet their own men, began to cut off the enemies who were surrounded by them. So that the enemies being cut off on both sides, not one of so great a multitude was saved. Josu. 8:22
And he burnt the city, and made it a heap forever: Josu. 8:28
And he hung the king thereof on a gibbet, until the evening and the going down of the sun. Then Josue commanded, and they took down his carcass from the gibbet: and threw it in the very entrance of the city, heaping upon it a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day. Josu. 8:29
And very old shoes, which for a show of age were clouted with patches, and old garments upon them: the loaves also, which they carried for provisions by the way, were hard, and broken into pieces: Josu. 9:5
And they went to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him, and to all Israel with him: We are come from a far country, desiring to make peace with you. And the children of Israel answered them, and said: Josu. 9:6
They answered: From a very far country thy servants are come in the name of the Lord thy God. For we have heard the fame of his power, all the things that he did in Egypt. Josu. 9:9
And our ancients, and all the inhabitants of our country, said to us: Take with you victuals for a long way, and go meet them, and say: We are your servants, make ye a league with us. Josu. 9:11
And Josue made peace with them, and entering into a league, promised that they should not be slain: the princes also of the multitude swore to them. Josu. 9:15
Therefore you shall be under a curse, and your race shall always be hewers of wood, and carriers of water, into the house of my God. Josu. 9:23
He was exceedingly afraid. For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the royal cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all its fighting men were most valiant. Josu. 10:2
And the Lord troubled them, at the sight of Israel: and he slew them with a great slaughter, in Gabaon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Bethoron, and cut them off all the way to Azeca and Maceda. Josu. 10:10
There was not before, nor after, so long a day, the Lord obeying the voice of a man, and fighting for Israel. Josu. 10:14
For the five kings were fled, and had hid themselves in a cave of the city of Maceda. Josu. 10:16
And it was told Josue, that the five kings were found hid in a cave of the city of Maceda. Josu. 10:17
So the enemies being slain with a great slaughter, and almost utterly consumed, they that were able to escape from Israel, entered into fenced cities. Josu. 10:20
And they all came out with their troops, a people exceeding numerous as the sand that is on the sea shore, their horses also and chariots a very great multitude, Josu. 11:4
And Josue came, and all the army with him, against them to the waters of Merom on a sudden, and fell upon them. Josu. 11:7
Josue made war <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 11:18">a long timea> against these kings. Josu. 11:18
There was not a city that delivered itself to the children of Israel, except the Hevite, who dwelt in Gabaon: for he took all by fight. Josu. 11:19
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 13:0">¤a> <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 13:1">Josue was old, and far advanced in yearsa>, and the Lord said to him: Thou art grown old, and advanced in age, and there is a very large country left, which is not yet divided by lot: Josu. 13:1
Of all that dwell in the mountains from Libanus, to the waters of Maserephoth, and all the Sidonians. I am he that will cut them off from before the face of the children of Israel. So let their land come in as a part of the inheritance of Israel, as I have commanded thee. Josu. 13:6
And Moses gave a possession to the children of Ruben according to their kindreds. Josu. 13:15
And Moses gave to the tribe of Gad and to his children by their kindreds a possession, of which this is the division. Josu. 13:24
For to two tribes and a half Moses had given possession beyond the Jordan: besides the Levites, who received no land among their brethren: Josu. 14:3
And reacheth northward to a part of Accaron at the side: and bendeth to Sechrona, and passeth mount Baala: and cometh into Jebneel, and is bounded westward with the great sea. Josu. 15:11
But to Caleb the son of Jephone he gave a portion in the midst of the children of Juda, as the Lord had commanded him: Cariath-Arbe the father of Enac, which is Hebron. Josu. 15:13
And as they were going together, she was moved by her husband to ask a field of her father, and she sighed as she sat on her ass. And Caleb said to her: What aileth thee? Josu. 15:18
But she answered: Give me a blessing: thou hast given me a southern and dry land, give me also a land that Is watered. And Caleb gave her the upper and the nether watery ground. Josu. 15:19
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 17:0">¤a> And this lot fell to the tribe of Manasses for he is the firstborn of Joseph to Machir the firstborn of Manasses the father of Galaad, who was a warlike man, and had for possession Galaad and Basan. Josu. 17:1
And they came in the presence of Eleazar the priest and of Josue the son of Nun, and of the princes, saying: The Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, that a possession should be given us in the midst of our brethren. And he gave them according to the commandment of the Lord a possession amongst the brethren of their father. Josu. 17:4
And the children of Joseph spoke to Josue, and said: Why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion to possess, whereas I am of so great a multitude, and the Lord hath blessed me? Josu. 17:14
And Josue said to them: If thou be a great people, go up into the woodland, and cut down room for thyself in the land of the Pherezite and the Raphaims: because the possession of mount Ephraim is too narrow for thee. Josu. 17:15
And Josue said to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasses: Thou art a great people, and of great strength, thou shalt not have one lot only: Josu. 17:17
So they went and surveying it divided it into seven parts, writing them down in a book. And they returned to Josue, to the camp in Silo. Josu. 18:9
And it bendeth thence going round towards the sea, south of the mountain that looketh towards Beth-horon to the southwest: and the outgoings thereof are into Cariathbaal, which is called also Cariathiarim, a city of the children of Juda This is their coast towards the sea, westward. Josu. 18:14
And when he had made an end of dividing the land by lot to each one by their tribes, the children of Israel gave a possession to Josue the son of Nun in the midst of them, Josu. 19:49
That whosoever shall kill a person unawares may flee to them, and may escape the wrath of the kinsman, who is the avenger of blood. Josu. 20:3
And when he shall flee to one of these cities: he shall stand before the gate of the city, and shall speak to the ancients of that city, such things as prove him innocent: and so shall they receive him, and give him a place to dwell in. Josu. 20:4
These cities were appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the strangers, that dwelt among them, that whosoever had killed a person unawares might flee to them, and not die by the hand of the kinsman, coveting to revenge the blood that was shed, until he should stand before the people to lay open his cause. Josu. 20:9
He gave therefore to the children of Aaron the priest, Hebron a city of refuge, and the suburbs thereof, and Lebna with the suburbs thereof, Josu. 21:13
Now to half the tribe of Manasses, Moses had given a possession in Basan: and therefore to the half that remained, Josue gave a lot among the rest of their brethren beyond the Jordan to the west. And when he sent them away to their dwellings and had blessed them, Josu. 22:7
Thus saith all the people of the Lord: What meaneth this transgression? Why have you forsaken the Lord the God of Israel, building a sacrilegious altar, and revolting from the worship of him? Josu. 22:16
Is it a small thing to you that you sinned with Beelphegor, and the stain of that crime remaineth in us to this day? and many of the people perished. Josu. 22:17
The Lord hath put the river Jordan for a border between us and you, O ye children of Ruben, and ye children of Gad: and therefore you have no part in the Lord. And by this occasion your children shall turn away our children from the fear of the Lord. We therefore thought it best, Josu. 22:25
But for a testimony between us and you, and our posterity and yours, that we may serve the Lord, and that we may have a right to offer both holocausts, and victims and sacrifices of peace offerings: and that your children to morrow may not say to our children: You have no part in the Lord. Josu. 22:27
And if they will say so, they shall answer them: Behold the altar of the Lord, which our fathers made, not for holocausts, nor for sacrifice, but for a testimony between us and you. Josu. 22:28
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 23:0">¤a> And when a long time was passed, after that the Lord had given peace to Israel, all the nations round about being subdued, and Josue being now old, and far advanced in years: Josu. 23:1
One of you shall chase a thousand men of the enemies: because the Lord your God himself will fight for you, as he hath promised. Josu. 23:10
Know ye for a certainty that the Lord your God will not destroy them before your face, but they shall be a pit and a snare in your way, and a stumbling-block at your side, and stakes in your eyes, till he take you away and destroy you from off this excellent land, which he hath given you. Josu. 23:13
And the children of Israel cried to the Lord: and he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea upon them, and covered them. Your eyes saw all that I did in Egypt, and you dwelt in the wilderness a long time. Josu. 24:7
And I gave you a land, in which you had not laboured, and cities to dwell in which you built not, vineyards and oliveyards, which you planted not. Josu. 24:13
Now therefore fear the Lord, and serve him with a perfect and most sincere heart: and put away the gods which your fathers served in Mesopotamia and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. Josu. 24:14
And Josue said to the people: <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 24:19">You will not be able to serve the Lorda>: for he is a holy God, and mighty and jealous, and will not forgive your wickedness and sins. Josu. 24:19
Josue therefore on that day made a covenant, and set before the people commandments and judgments in Sichem. Josu. 24:25
And he wrote all these things in the volume of the law of the Lord: and he took a great stone, and set it under the oak that was in the sanctuary of the Lord. Josu. 24:26
And he said to all the people: Behold this stone shall be a testimony unto you, that <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 24:27">it hath hearda> all the words of the Lord, which he hath spoken to you: lest perhaps hereafter you will deny it, and lie to the Lord your God. Josu. 24:27
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jos 24:29">And aftera> these things Josue the son of Nun the servant of the Lord died, being a hundred and ten years old: Josu. 24:29
And Israel served the Lord all the days of Josue, and of the ancients that lived a long time after Josue, and that had known all the works of the Lord which he had done in Israel. Josu. 24:31
And the bones of Joseph which the children of Israel had taken out of Egypt, they buried in Sichem, in that part of the field which Jacob had bought of the sons of Hemor the father of Sichem, for a hundred young ewes, and it was in the possession of the sons of Joseph. Josu. 24:32
And as she was going on her way, her husband admonished her to ask a field of her father. And as she sighed sitting on her ass, Caleb said to her: What aileth thee? Judg. 1:14
But she answered: Give me a blessing, for thou hast given me a dry land: give me also a watery land So Caleb gave her the upper and the nether watery ground. Judg. 1:15
They saw a man coming out of the city, and they said to him: Shew us the entrance into the city, and we will shew thee mercy. Judg. 1:24
Who being sent away, went into the land of Hetthim, and built there a city, and called it Luza: which is so called until this day. Judg. 1:26
And the Amorrhite straitened the children of Dan in the mountain, and gave them not a place to go down to the plain: Judg. 1:34
On condition that you should not make a league with the inhabitants of this land, but should throw down their altars: and you would not hear my voice: why have you done this? Judg. 2:2
And they served the Lord all his days, and the days of the ancients, that lived a long time after him, and who knew all the works of the Lord, which he had done for Israel. Judg. 2:7
And Josue, the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died, being a hundred and ten years old; Judg. 2:8
And they cried to the Lord, who raised them up a saviour, and delivered them; to wit, Othoniel, the son of Cenez, the younger brother of Caleb: Judg. 3:9
And afterwards they cried to the Lord, who raised them up a saviour, called Aod, the son of Cera, the son of Jemini, who used the left hand as well as the right. And the children of Israel sent presents to Eglon, king of Moab, by him. Judg. 3:15
And he made himself a two-edged sword, with a haft in the midst of the length of the palm of the hand, and was girded therewith, under his garment, on the right thigh. Judg. 3:16
Then returning from Galgal, where the idols were, he said to the king: I have a secret message to thee, O king. And he commanded silence: and all being gone out that were about him, Judg. 3:19
Aod went in to him: now he was sitting in a summer parlour alone, and he said: I have <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 3:20">a word from Goda> to thee. And he forthwith rose up from his throne. Judg. 3:20
Went out by a postern door. And the king's servants going in, saw the doors of the parlour shut, and they said: Perhaps he is easing nature in his summer parlour. Judg. 3:24
And waiting a long time, till they were ashamed, and seeing that no man opened the door, they took a key: and opening, they found their lord lying dead on the ground. Judg. 3:25
After him was Samgar, the son of Anath, who slew of the Philistines six hundred men with a ploughshare: and he also defended Israel. Judg. 3:31
And the Lord delivered them up into the hands of Jabin, king of Chanaan, who reigned in Asor: and he had a general of his army named Sisara, and he dwelt in Haroseth of the Gentiles. Judg. 4:2
And there was at that time Debbora, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, who judged the people. Judg. 4:4
And she sat under a palm tree, which was called by her name, between Rama and Bethel, in Mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for all judgment. Judg. 4:5
She said to him: I will go, indeed, with thee, but at this time the victory shall not be attributed to thee, because Sisara shall be delivered into the hand of a woman. Debbora therefore arose, and went with Barac to Cedes. Judg. 4:9
And the Lord struck a terror into Sisara, and all his chariots, and all his multitude, with the edge of the sword, at the sight of Barac; insomuch, that Sisara leaping down from off his chariot, fled away on foot, Judg. 4:15
And Jahel went forth to meet Sisara, and said to him: Come in to me, my lord; come in, fear not. He went into her tent, and being covered by her with a cloak, Judg. 4:18
Said to her: Give me, I beseech thee, a little water, for I am very thirsty. She opened a bottle of milk, and gave him to drink, and covered him. Judg. 4:19
So Jahel, Haber's wife, took a nail of the tent, and taking also a hammer: and going in softly, and with silence, she put the nail upon the temples of his head, and striking it with the hammer, drove it through his brain fast into the ground: and so passing from deep sleep to death, he fainted away and died. Judg. 4:21
Who grew daily stronger, and with a mighty hand overpowered Jabin, king of Chanaan, till they quite destroyed him. Judg. 4:24
The valiant men ceased, and rested in Israel: until Debbora arose, a mother arose in Israel. Judg. 5:7
The Lord chose new wars, and he himself overthrew the gates of the enemies: a shield and spear was not seen among forty thousand of Israel. Judg. 5:8
Arise, arise, O Debbora, arise, arise, and utter a canticle. Arise, Barac, and take hold of thy captives, O son of Abinoem. Judg. 5:12
The captains of Issachar were with Debbora, and followed the steps of Barac, who exposed himself to danger, as one going headlong, and into a pit. Ruben being <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 5:15">divided against himselfa>, there was found a strife of courageous men. Judg. 5:15
Why dwellest thou between two borders, that thou mayst hear the bleatings of the flocks? Ruben being divided against himself, there was found a strife of courageous men. Judg. 5:16
He asked her water, and she gave him milk, and offered him butter in a dish fit for princes. Judg. 5:25
She put her left hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workman's hammer, and she struck Sisara, seeking in his head a place for the wound, and strongly piercing through his temples. Judg. 5:26
His mother looked out at a window, and howled: and she spoke from the dining room: Why is his chariot so long in coming back? Why are the feet of his horses so slow? Judg. 5:28
And he sent unto them a prophet, and he spoke: Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel: I made you to come up out of Egypt, and brought you out of the house of bondage, Judg. 6:8
And he said: If I have found grace before thee, give me a sign that it is thou that speakest to me: Judg. 6:17
And depart not hence, till I return to thee, and bring a sacrifice, and offer it to thee. And he answered: I will wait thy coming. Judg. 6:18
So Gedeon went in, and boiled a kid, and made unleavened loaves of a measure of flour: and putting the flesh in a basket, and the broth of the flesh into a pot, he carried all under the oak, and presented to him. Judg. 6:19
The angel of the Lord put forth the tip of the rod, which he held in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened loaves: and there arose a fire from the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened loaves: and the angel of the Lord vanished out of his sight. Judg. 6:21
That night the Lord said to him: Take a bullock of thy father's, and another bullock of seven years, and thou shalt destroy the altar of Baal, which is thy father's: and cut down the grove that is about the altar: Judg. 6:25
And thou shalt build an altar to the Lord thy God, in the top of this rock, whereupon thou didst lay the sacrifice before: and thou shalt take the second bullock, and shalt offer a holocaust upon a pile of the wood, which thou shalt cut down out of the grove. Judg. 6:26
He answered them: Are you the avengers of Baal, that you fight for him? he that is his adversary, let him die before to morrow light appear: if he be a god, let him revenge himself on him that hath cast down his altar. Judg. 6:31
And it was so. And rising before day, wringing the fleece, he filled a vessel with the dew. Judg. 6:38
And he said again to God: Let not thy wrath be kindled against me, if I try once more, seeking a sign in the fleece. I pray that the fleece only may be dry, and all the ground wet with dew. Judg. 6:39
But Madian and Amalec, and all the eastern people, lay scattered in the valley, as a multitude of locusts: their camels also were innumerable, as the sand that lieth on the sea shore. Judg. 7:12
And when Gedeon was come, one told his neighbour <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 7:13">a dreama>: and in this manner related what he had seen: I dreamt a dream, and it seemed to me as if a hearth cake of barley bread rolled and came down into the camp of Madian: and when it was come to a tent, it struck it, and beat it down flat to the ground. Judg. 7:13
He to whom he spoke, answered: This is nothing else but the sword of Gedeon, the son of Joas, a man of Israel. For the Lord hath delivered Madian, and all their camp into his hand. Judg. 7:14
He said, therefore, to them also: When I shall return a conqueror in peace, I will destroy this tower. Judg. 8:9
He took a boy of the men of Soccoth: and he asked him the names of the princes and ancients of Soccoth, and he described unto him seventy-seven men. Judg. 8:14
And he said to Zebee and Salmana: What manner of men were they, whom you slew in Thabor? They answered: They were like thee, and one of them as the son of a king. Judg. 8:18
And he said to Jether, his eldest son: Arise, and slay them. But he drew not his sword: for he was afraid, being but yet a boy. Judg. 8:20
And Zebee and Salmana said: Do thou rise and run upon us: because the strength of a man is according to his age: Gedeon rose up, and slew Zebee and Salmana: and he took the ornaments and bosses, with which the necks of the camels of kings are wont to be adorned. Judg. 8:21
They answered: We will give them most willingly. And spreading a mantle on the ground, they cast upon it the earlets of the spoils. Judg. 8:25
And the weight of the earlets that he requested, was a thousand seven hundred sicles of gold, besides the ornaments, and jewels, and purple raiment, which the kings of Madian were wont to use, and besides the golden chains that were about the camels' necks. Judg. 8:26
And Gedeon made <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 8:27">an ephoda> thereof, and put it in his city Ephra. And all Israel committed fornication with it, and it became a ruin to Gedeon, and to all his house. Judg. 8:27
And <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 8:31">his concubinea>, that he had in Sichem, bore him a son, whose name was Abimelech. Judg. 8:31
And Gedeon, the son of Joas died in a good old age, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father, in Ephra, of the family of Ezri. Judg. 8:32
But after Gedeon was dead, the children of Israel turned again, and committed fornication with Baalim. And they made a covenant with Baal, that he should be their god: Judg. 8:33
The trees went to anoint a king over them: and they said to the olive tree: Reign thou over us. Judg. 9:8
Now, therefore, if you have done well, and without sin, in appointing Abimelech king over you, and have dealt well with Jerobaal, and with his house, and have made a suitable return for the benefits of him who fought for you, Judg. 9:16
And the Lord sent a very evil spirit between Abimelech and the inhabitants of Sichem; who began to detest him, Judg. 9:23
And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul: Behold, a multitude cometh down from the mountains. And he answered him: Thou seest the shadows of the mountains as if they were the heads of men, and this is thy mistake. Judg. 9:36
And when they who dwelt in the tower of Sichem, had heard this, they went into the temple of their god Berith, where they had made a covenant with him, and from thence the place had taken its name, and it was exceeding strong. Judg. 9:46
Went up into mount Selmon, he and all his people with him: and taking an axe, he cut down the bough of a tree, and laying it on his shoulder, and carrying it, he said to his companions: What you see me do, do ye out of hand. Judg. 9:48
So they cut down boughs from the trees, every man as fast as he could, and followed their leader. And surrounding the fort, they set it on fire: and so it came to pass, that with the smoke and with the fire a thousand persons were killed, men and women together, of the inhabitants of the tower of Sichem. Judg. 9:49
And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves. Judg. 9:51
And behold, a certain woman casting a piece of a millstone from above, dashed it against the head of Abimelech, and broke his skull. Judg. 9:53
And he called hastily to his armourbearer, and said to him: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest it should be said that I was slain by a woman. He did as he was commanded, and slew him. Judg. 9:54
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 10:0">¤a> After Abimelech, there arose a ruler in Israel, Thola, son of Phua, the <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 10:1">uncle of Abimelecha>, a man of Issachar, who dwelt in Samir of mount Ephraim: Judg. 10:1
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 11:0">¤a> There was at that time Jephte, the Galaadite, a most valiant man, and a warrior, the son of a woman that was a harlot, and his father was Galaad. Judg. 11:1
Now Galaad had a wife of whom he had sons: who, after they were grown up, thrust out Jephte, saying: Thou canst not inherit in the house of our father, because thou art born of another mother. Judg. 11:2
Whereas he hath dwelt in Hesebon, and the villages thereof, and in Aroer, and its villages, and in all the cities near the Jordan, for three hundred years. Why have you for so long a time attempted nothing about this claim? Judg. 11:26
He made a vow to the Lord, saying: If thou wilt deliver the children of Ammon into my hands, Judg. 11:30
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 11:31">Whosoevera> shall first come forth out of the doors of my house, and shall meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, the same will I offer a holocaust to the Lord. Judg. 11:31
And he smote them from Aroer till you come to Mennith, twenty cities, and as far as Abel, which is set with vineyards, with a very great slaughter: and the children of Ammon were humbled by the children of Israel. Judg. 11:33
And the two months being expired, she returned to her father, and he did to her as he had vowed, and she knew no man. From thence came a fashion in Israel, and a custom has been kept: Judg. 11:39
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 12:0">¤a> But behold there arose a sedition in Ephraim. And passing towards the north, they said to Jephte: When thou wentest to fight against the children of Ammon, why wouldst thou not call us, that we might go with thee? Therefore we will burn thy house. Judg. 12:1
Then calling to him all the men of Galaad, he fought against Ephraim: and the men of Galaad defeated Ephraim, because he had said: Galaad is a fugitive of Ephraim, and dwelleth in the midst of Ephraim and Manasses. Judg. 12:4
To him succeeded Ahialon, a Zabulonite: and he judged Israel ten years: Judg. 12:11
After him, Abdon, the son of Illel, a Pharathonite, judged Israel: Judg. 12:13
Now there was a certain man of Saraa, and of the race of Dan, whose name was Manue, and his wife was barren. Judg. 13:2
And an angel of the Lord appeared to her, and said: Thou art barren and without children: but thou shalt conceive and bear a son. Judg. 13:3
Because thou shalt conceive, and bear a son, and no razor shall touch his head: for he shall be a Nazarite of God, from his infancy, and from his mother's womb, and he shall begin to deliver Israel from the hands of the Philistines. Judg. 13:5
And when she was come to her husband, she said to him: A man of God came to me, having the countenance of an angel, very awful. And when I asked him whence he came, and by what name he was called, he would not tell me: Judg. 13:6
But he answered thus: Behold thou shalt conceive and bear a son: beware thou drink no wine, nor strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite of God from his infancy, from his mother's womb until the day of his death. Judg. 13:7
And Manue said to the angel of the Lord: I beseech thee to consent to my request, and let us dress a kid for thee. Judg. 13:15
And the angel answered him: If thou press me I will not eat of thy bread: but if thou wilt offer a holocaust, offer it to the Lord. And Manue knew not it was the angel of the Lord. Judg. 13:16
Then Manue took a kid of the flocks, and the libations, and put them upon a rock, offering to the Lord, who doth wonderful things: and he and his wife looked on. Judg. 13:19
And his wife answered him: If the Lord had a mind to kill us, he would not have received a holocaust and libations at our hands; neither would he have shewed us all these things, nor have told us the things that are to come. Judg. 13:23
And she bore a son, and called his name Samson. And the child grew, and the Lord blessed him. Judg. 13:24
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 14:0">¤a> Then Samson went down to Thamnatha, and seeing there a woman of the daughters of the Philistines, Judg. 14:1
He came up, and told his father and his mother, saying: I saw a woman in Thamnatha of the daughters of the Philistines: I beseech you, take her for me to wife. Judg. 14:2
And his father and mother said to him: <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 14:3">Is there no woman among the daughters of thy brethrena>, or among all my people, that thou wilt take a wife of the Philistines, who are uncircumcised? And Samson said to his father: Take this woman for me; for she hath pleased my eyes. Judg. 14:3
Then Samson went down with his father and mother to Thamnatha. And when they were come to the vineyards of the town, behold a young lion met him, raging and roaring. Judg. 14:5
And the Spirit of the Lord came upon Samson, and he tore the lion as he would have torn a kid in pieces, having nothing at all in his hand: and he would not tell this to his father and mother. Judg. 14:6
And after some days, returning to take her, he went aside to see the carcass of the lion, and behold there was a swarm of bees in the mouth of the lion, and a honey-comb. Judg. 14:8
So his father went down to the woman, and made a feast for his son Samson: for so the young men used to do. Judg. 14:10
And Samson said to them: I will propose to you a riddle, which if you declare unto me within the seven days of the feast, I will give you thirty shirts, and as many coats: Judg. 14:12
And they, on the seventh day before the sun went down, said to him: What is sweeter than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said to them: If you had not ploughed with my heifer, you had not found out my riddle. Judg. 14:18
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 15:0">¤a> And a while after, when the days of the wheat harvest were at hand, Samson came, meaning to visit his wife, and he brought her a kid of the flock. And when he would have gone into her chamber, as usual, her father would not suffer him, saying: Judg. 15:1
I thought thou hadst hated her, and therefore I gave her to thy friend: but she hath a sister, who is younger and fairer than she, take her to wife instead of her. Judg. 15:2
And he made a great slaughter of them, so that in astonishment they laid the calf of the leg upon the thigh. And going down he dwelt in a cavern of the rock Etam. Judg. 15:8
And finding a jawbone, even the jawbone of an ass, which lay there, catching it up, he slew therewith a thousand men. Judg. 15:15
And he said: With the jawbone of an ass, with the jaw of the colt of asses, I have destroyed them, and have slain a thousand men. Judg. 15:16
Then the Lord opened a great tooth in the jaw of the ass and waters issued out of it. And when he had drunk them, he refreshed his spirit, and recovered his strength. Therefore the name of that place was called The Spring of him that invoked from the jawbone, until this present day. Judg. 15:19
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 16:0">¤a> He went also into Gaza, and saw there a woman, a harlot, and went in unto her. Judg. 16:1
After this he loved a woman, who dwelt in the valley of Sorec, and she was called <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 16:4">Dalilaa>. Judg. 16:4
Men lying privately in wait with her, and in the chamber, expecting the event of the thing, and she cried out to him: The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he broke the bands, as a man would break a thread of tow twined with spittle, when it smelleth the fire: so it was not known wherein his strength lay. Judg. 16:9
And Dalila said to him: Behold thou hast mocked me, and hast told me a false thing: but now at least tell me wherewith thou mayest be bound. Judg. 16:10
And Dalila said to him again: How long dost thou deceive me, and tell me lies? Shew me wherewith thou mayest be bound. And Samson answered her: If thou plattest the seven locks of my head with a lace, and tying them round about a nail, fastenest it in the ground, I shall be weak. Judg. 16:13
Then opening the truth of the thing, he said to her: The razor hath never come upon my head, for I am a Nazarite, that is to say, consecrated to God from my mother's womb: If my head be shaven, my strength shall depart from me, and I shall become weak, and shall be like other men. Judg. 16:17
But she made him sleep upon her knees, and lay his head in her bosom. And she called a barber and shaved his seven locks, and began to drive him away, and thrust him from her: for immediately his strength departed from him. Judg. 16:19
And he said to the lad that guided his steps: Suffer me to touch the pillars which support the whole house, and let me lean upon them, and rest a little. Judg. 16:26
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 17:0">¤a> There was at that time a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Michas. Judg. 17:1
So he restored them to his mother, who said to him: I have consecrated and vowed this silver to the Lord, that my son may receive it at my hand, and make a graven and a molten god; so now I deliver it to thee. Judg. 17:3
And he restored them to his mother: and she took two hundred pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith, to make of them a graven and a molten God, which was in the house of Michas. Judg. 17:4
And he separated also therein a little temple for the god, and made an ephod, and theraphim, that is to say, a priestly garment, and idols: and he <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 17:5">filled the handa> of one of his sons, and he became his priest. Judg. 17:5
There was also another young man of Bethlehem Juda, of the kindred thereof: and he was a Levite, and dwelt there. Judg. 17:7
Now he went out from the city of Bethlehem, and desired to sojourn wheresoever he should find it convenient for him. And when he was come to mount Ephraim, as he was on his journey, and had turned aside a little into the house of Michas, Judg. 17:8
He was asked by him whence he came. And he answered: I am a Levite of Bethlehem Juda, and I am going to dwell where I can, and where I shall find a place to my advantage. Judg. 17:9
And Michas said: Stay with me, and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give thee every year ten pieces of silver, and a double suit of apparel, and thy victuals. Judg. 17:10
Now I know God will do me good, since I have a priest of the race of the Levites. Judg. 17:13
So the five men going on came to Lais: and they saw how the people dwelt therein without any fear, according to the custom of the Sidonians, secure and easy, having no man at all to oppose them, being very rich, and living separated, at a distance from Sidon and from all men. Judg. 18:7
We shall come to a people that is secure, into a spacious country, and the Lord will deliver the place to us, in which there is no want of any thing that groweth on the earth. Judg. 18:10
The five men, that before had been sent to view the land of Lais, said to the rest of their brethren: You know that in these houses there is an ephod and theraphim, and a graven and a molten god: see what you are pleased to do. Judg. 18:14
And when they had turned a little aside, they went into the house of the young man the Levite, who was in the house of Michas: and they saluted him with words of peace. Judg. 18:15
And they said to him: Hold thy peace, and put thy finger on thy mouth, and come with us, that we may have thee for a father, and a priest. Whether is better for thee, to be a priest in the house of one man, or in a tribe and family in Israel? Judg. 18:19
And were now at a distance from the house of Michas, the men that dwelt in the houses of Michas gathering together followed them, Judg. 18:22
And the six hundred men took the priest, and the things we spoke of before, and came to Lais, to a people that was quiet and secure, and smote them with the edge of the sword: and the city they burnt with fire, Judg. 18:27
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jud 19:0">¤a> There was a certain Levite, who dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, who took a wife of Bethlehem Juda: Judg. 19:1
And her husband followed her, willing to be reconciled with her, and to speak kindly to her, and to bring her back with him, having with him a servant and two asses: and she received him, and brought him into her father's house. And when his father in law had heard this, and had seen him, he met him with joy, Judg. 19:3
But on the fourth day, arising early in the morning, he desired to depart. But his father in law kept him, and said to him: Taste first a little bread, and strengthen thy stomach, and so thou shalt depart. Judg. 19:5
But when morning was come, the Levite prepared to go on his journey. And his father in law said to him again: I beseech thee to take a little meat, and strengthening thyself, till the day be farther advanced, afterwards thou mayest depart. And they ate together. Judg. 19:8
And behold they saw an old man, returning out of the field and from his work in the evening, and he also was of mount Ephraim, and dwelt as a stranger in Gabaa; but the men of that country were the children of Jemini. Judg. 19:16
And he brought him into his house, and gave provender to his asses: and after they had washed their feet, he entertained them with a feast. Judg. 19:21
I have a maiden daughter, and this man hath a concubine, I will bring them out to you, and you may humble them, and satisfy your lust: only, I beseech you, commit not this crime against nature on the man. Judg. 19:24
And when he was come home, he took a sword, and divided the dead body of his wife with her bones into twelve parts, and sent the pieces into all the borders of Israel. Judg. 19:29
And when every one had seen this, they all cried out: There was never such a thing done in Israel, from the day that our fathers came up out of Egypt, until this day: give sentence, and decree in common what ought to be done. Judg. 19:30
(Nor were the children of Benjamin ignorant that the children of Israel were come up to Maspha.) And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was killed being asked, how so great a wickedness had been committed, Judg. 20:3
And I took her and cut her in pieces, and sent the parts into all the borders of your possession: because there never was so heinous a crime, and so great an abomination committed in Israel. Judg. 20:6
We will take ten men of a hundred out of all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred out of a thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to bring victuals for the army, that we may fight against Gabaa of Benjamin, and render to it for its wickedness, what it deserveth. Judg. 20:10
Who were seven hundred most valiant men, fighting with the left hand as well as with the right: and slinging stones so sure that they could hit even a hair, and not miss by the stone's going on either side. Judg. 20:16
The children of Benjamin sallied forth out of the gates of Gabaa: and meeting them, made so great a slaughter of them, as to kill eighteen thousand men that drew the sword. Judg. 20:25
And the children of Benjamin boldly issued out of the city, and seeing their enemies flee, pursued them a long way, so as to wound and kill some of them, as they had done the first and second day, whilst they fled by two highways, whereof one goeth up to Bethel and the other to Gabaa, and they slew about thirty men: Judg. 20:31
For they thought to cut them off as they did before. But they artfully feigning a flight, designed to draw them away from the city, and by their seeming to flee, to bring them to the highways aforesaid. Judg. 20:32
And they that were in ambush arose on a sudden out of their coverts, and whilst Benjamin turned their backs to the slayers, went into the city, and smote it with the edge of the sword. Judg. 20:37
Now the children of Israel had given a sign to them, whom they had laid in ambushes, that after they had taken the city, they should make a fire: that by the smoke rising on high, they might shew that the city was taken. Judg. 20:38
And perceived, as it were, a pillar of smoke rise up from the city; and Benjamin looking back, saw that the city was taken, and that the flames ascended on high: Judg. 20:40
Who is there among all the tribes of Israel that came not up with the army of the Lord? for they had bound themselves with a great oath, when they were in Maspha, that whosoever were wanting should be slain. Judg. 21:5
And there were found of Jabes Galaad four hundred virgins, that had not known the bed of a man, and they brought them to the camp in Silo, into the land of Chanaan. Judg. 21:12
For as to our own daughters we cannot give them, being bound with an oath and a curse, whereby we said: Cursed be he that shall give Benjamin any of his daughters to wife. Judg. 21:18
So they took counsel, and said: Behold, there is a yearly solemnity of the Lord in Silo, which is situate on the north of the city of Bethel, and on the east side of the way, that goeth from Bethel to Sichem, and on the south of the town of Lebona. Judg. 21:19
And when you shall see the daughters of Silo come out, as the custom is, to dance, come ye on a sudden out of the vineyards, and catch you every man his wife among them, and go into the land of Benjamin. Judg. 21:21
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ru 0:0">‡a> <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ru 1:0">¤a> In the days of the judges, when the judges ruled, there came a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem Juda, went to sojourn in the land of Moab with his wife and his two sons. Ruth 1:1
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ru 2:0">¤a> Now her husband Elimelech had a kinsman, a powerful man, and very rich, whose name was Booz. Ruth 2:1
And Ruth, the Moabitess, said to her mother in law: If thou wilt, I will go into the field, and glean the ears of corn that escape the hands of the reapers, wheresoever I shall find grace with a householder, that will be favourable to me. And she answered her: Go, my daughter. Ruth 2:2
She fell on her face, and worshipping upon the ground, said to him: Whence cometh this to me, that I should find grace before thy eyes, and that thou shouldst vouchsafe to take notice of me, a woman of another country? Ruth 2:10
And he answered her: All hath been told me, that thou hast done to thy mother in law after the death of thy husband: and how thou hast left thy parents, and the land wherein thou wast born, and art come to a people which thou knewest not heretofore. Ruth 2:11
The Lord render unto thee for thy work, and mayst thou receive a full reward of the Lord the God of Israel, to whom thou art come, and under whose wings thou art fled. Ruth 2:12
She gleaned therefore in the field till evening: and beating out with a rod, and threshing what she had gleaned, she found about the measure of an ephi of barley, that is, three bushels: Ruth 2:17
And behold, when it was now midnight the man was afraid, and troubled: and he saw a woman lying at his feet, Ruth 3:8
And he said to her: Who art thou ? And she answered: I am Ruth, thy handmaid: spread thy coverlet over thy servant, for thou art a near kinsman. Ruth 3:9
Fear not therefore, but whatsoever thou shalt say to me I will do to thee. For all the people that dwell within the gates of my city, know that thou art a virtuous woman. Ruth 3:11
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ru 4:0">¤a> Then Booz went up to the gate, and sat there. And when he had seen the kinsman going by, of whom he had spoken before, he said to him, calling him by his name: Turn aside for a little while, and sit down here. He turned aside, and sat down. Ruth 4:1
They sat down, and he spoke to the kinsman: Noemi, who is returned from the country of Moab will sell a parcel of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech. Ruth 4:3
Now this in former times was the manner in Israel between kinsmen, that if at any time one yielded his right to another: that the grant might be sure, the man put off his shoe and gave it to his neighbour; this was a testimony of cession of right in Israel. Ruth 4:7
Then all the people that were in the gate, and the ancients, answered: We are witnesses: The Lord make this woman who cometh into thy house, like Rachel, and Lia, who built up the house of Israel: that she may be an example of virtue in <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ru 4:11">Ephrataa>, and may have a famous name in Bethlehem: Ruth 4:11
Booz therefore took Ruth, and married her: and went in unto her, and the Lord gave her to conceive, and to bear a son. Ruth 4:13
And the women said to Noemi: Blessed be the Lord, who hath not suffered thy family to want a successor: that his name should be preserved in Israel. Ruth 4:14
And Noemi taking the child, laid it in her bosom, and she carried it, and was a nurse unto it. Ruth 4:16
And the women, her neighbours, congratulating with her, and saying, There is a son born to Noemi, called his name Obed: he is the father of Isai, the father of David. Ruth 4:17
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 0:0">‡a> <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 1:0">¤a> There was a man of Ramathaimsophim, of Mount Ephraim, and his name was Elcana, the son of Jeroham, the son of Eliu, the son of Thohu, the son of Suph, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 1:1">an Ephraimitea>: 1 Ki. 1:1
So Anna arose after she had eaten and drunk in Silo: And Heli, the priest, sitting upon a stool before the door of the temple of the Lord; 1 Ki. 1:9
And she made a vow, saying: O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt look down on the affliction of thy servant, and wilt be mindful of me, and not forget thy handmaid, and wilt give to thy servant a manchild: I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head. 1 Ki. 1:11
And said to her: How long wilt thou be drunk? digest a little the wine, of which thou hast taken too much. 1 Ki. 1:14
And it came to pass when the time was come about, Anna conceived and bore a son, and called his name <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 1:20">Samuela>: because she had asked him of the Lord. 1 Ki. 1:20
And after she had weaned him, she carried him with her, with three calves, and three bushels of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she brought him to the house of the Lord in Silo. Now the child was as yet very young: 1 Ki. 1:24
And they immolated a calf, and offered the child to Heli. 1 Ki. 1:25
Do not multiply to speak lofty things, boasting: let old matters depart from your mouth: for the Lord is a God of all knowledge, and to him are thoughts prepared. 1 Ki. 2:3
Nor the office of the priests to the people: but whosoever had offered a sacrifice, the servant of the priest came, while the flesh was in boiling, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand, 1 Ki. 2:13
But Samuel ministered before the face of the Lord: being a child girded with a linen ephod. 1 Ki. 2:18
And his mother made him a little coat, which she brought to him on the appointed days, when she went up with her husband, to offer the solemn sacrifice. 1 Ki. 2:19
If one man shall sin against another, God may be appeased in his behalf: but if a man shall sin against the Lord, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 2:25">who shall pray for hima>? And they hearkened not to the voice of their father, because the Lord would slay them. 1 Ki. 2:25
And there came a man of God to Heli, and said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Did I not plainly appear to thy father's house, when they were in Egypt in the house of Pharao? 1 Ki. 2:27
However, I will not altogether take away a man of thee from my altar: but that thy eyes may faint, and thy soul be spent: and a great part of thy house shall die, when they come to man's estate. 1 Ki. 2:33
And this shall be a sign to thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, Ophni and Phinees: in one day they shall both of them die. 1 Ki. 2:34
And I will raise me up a faithful priest, who shall do according to my heart, and my soul and I will build him a faithful house, and he shall walk all days before my anointed. 1 Ki. 2:35
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall remain in thy house shall come that he may be prayed for, and shall offer a piece of silver, and a roll of bread, and shall say: Put me, I beseech thee, to somewhat of the priestly office, that I may eat a morsel of bread. 1 Ki. 2:36
And the Lord said to Samuel: Behold I do a thing in Israel: and whosoever shall hear it, both his ears shall tingle. 1 Ki. 3:11
And all Israel, from Dan to Bersabee, knew that Samuel was a faithful prophet of the Lord. 1 Ki. 3:20
And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, and the earth rang again. 1 Ki. 4:5
And the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, and they said: What is this noise of a great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the Lord was come into the camp. 1 Ki. 4:6
And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Silo the same day, with his clothes rent, and his head strewed with dust. 1 Ki. 4:12
And when he was come, Heli sat upon a stool over against the way, watching. For his heart was fearful for the ark of God. And when the man was come into the city, he told it: and all the city cried out. 1 Ki. 4:13
And he that brought the news answered, and said: Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there has been a great slaughter of the people: moreover thy two sons, Ophni and Phinees, are dead: and the ark of God is taken. 1 Ki. 4:17
And his daughter in law, the wife of Phinees, was big with child, and near her time: and hearing the news that the ark of God was taken, and her father in law, and her husband, were dead, she bowed herself and fell in labour: for her pains came upon her on a sudden. 1 Ki. 4:19
And when she was upon the point of death, they that stood about her said to her: Fear not, for thou hast borne a son. She answered them not, nor gave heed to them. 1 Ki. 4:20
And the hand of the Lord was heavy upon the Azotians, and he destroyed them, and afflicted Azotus and the coasts thereof with emerods. And in the villages and fields in the midst of that country, there came forth a multitude of mice, and there was the confusion of a great mortality in the city. 1 Ki. 5:6
Now, therefore, take and make a new cart: and two kine that have calved, on which there hath come no yoke, tie to the cart, and shut up their calves at home. 1 Ki. 6:7
And you shall take the ark of the Lord, and lay it on the cart, and the vessels of gold, which you have paid him for sin, you shall put into a little box at the side thereof: and send it away, that it may go. 1 Ki. 6:8
And the cart came into the field of Josue, a Bethsamite, and stood there. And there was a great stone, and they cut in pieces the wood of the cart, and laid the kine upon it a holocaust to the Lord. 1 Ki. 6:14
But he slew of the men of Bethsames, because they had <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 6:19">seena> the ark of the Lord, and he slew of the people seventy men, and fifty thousand of the common people. And the people lamented, because the Lord had smitten the people with a great slaughter. 1 Ki. 6:19
And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it whole for a holocaust to the Lord: and Samuel cried to the Lord for Israel, and the Lord heard him. 1 Ki. 7:9
And it came to pass, when Samuel was offering the holocaust, the Philistines began the battle against Israel: but the Lord thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and terrified them, and they were overthrown before the face of Israel. 1 Ki. 7:10
And Samuel took a stone, and laid it between Masphath and Sen: and he called the place The stone of help. And he said: Thus far the Lord hath helped us. 1 Ki. 7:12
And they said to him: Behold thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: make us a king, to judge us, as all nations have. 1 Ki. 8:5
And the word was displeasing in the eyes of Samuel, that they should say: Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed to the Lord. 1 Ki. 8:6
Then Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people that had desired a king of him, 1 Ki. 8:10
And you shall cry out in that day from the face of the king, whom you have chosen to yourselves: and the Lord will not hear you in that day, because you desired unto yourselves a king. 1 Ki. 8:18
But the people would not hear the voice of Samuel, and they said, Nay: but there shall be a king over us, 1 Ki. 8:19
And the Lord said to Samuel: Hearken to their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said to the men of Israel: Let every man go to his city. 1 Ki. 8:22
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 9:0">¤a> Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Cis, the son of Abiel, the son of Seror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphia, the son of a man of Jemini, valiant and strong. 1 Ki. 9:1
And he had a son whose name was Saul, a choice and goodly man, and there was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person than he: from his shoulders and upward he appeared above all the people. 1 Ki. 9:2
And he said to him: Behold there is a man of God in this city, a famous man: all that he saith, cometh certainly to pass. Now, therefore, let us go thither, perhaps he may tell us of our way, for which we are come. 1 Ki. 9:6
The servant answered Saul again, and said: Behold there is found in my hand the fourth part of a sicle of silver, let us give it to the man of God, that he may tell us our way. 1 Ki. 9:8
Now in time past in Israel, when a man went to consult God, he spoke thus: Come, let us go to the <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 9:9">seera>. For he that is now called a prophet, in time past was called a seer. 1 Ki. 9:9
They answered and said to them: He is: behold he is before you, make haste now: for he came to day into the city, for there is <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 9:12">a sacrificea> of the people to day in the high place. 1 Ki. 9:12
To morrow about this same hour I will send thee a man of the land of Benjamin, and thou shalt anoint him to be ruler over my people Israel: and he shall save my people out of the hand of the Philistines: for I have looked down upon my people, because their cry is come to me. 1 Ki. 9:16
And Saul answering, said: Am not I a son of Jemini of the least tribe of Israel, and my kindred the last among all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? Why then hast thou spoken this word to me? 1 Ki. 9:21
Then Samuel taking Saul, and his servant, brought them into the parlour, and gave them a place at the head of them that were invited. For there were about thirty men. 1 Ki. 9:22
And they went down from the high place into the town, and he spoke with Saul upon the top of the house: and he prepared a bed for Saul on the top of the house and he slept. 1 Ki. 9:25
And as they were going down in the end of the city, Samuel said to Saul: Speak to the servant to go before us, and pass on: but stand thou still a while, that I may tell thee the word of the Lord. 1 Ki. 9:27
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 10:0">¤a> And Samuel took a little vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said: Behold, the Lord hath anointed thee to be prince over his inheritance, and thou shalt deliver his people out of the hands of their enemies, that are round about them. And this shall be a sign unto thee, that God hath anointed thee to be prince. 1 Ki. 10:1
And when thou shalt depart from thence, and go farther on, and shalt come to the oak of Thabor, there shall meet thee three men going up to God to <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 10:3">Bethela>, one carrying three kids, and another three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine. 1 Ki. 10:3
After that thou shalt come to <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 10:5">the hill of Goda>, where the garrison of the Philistines is: and when thou shalt be come there into the city, thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place, with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp before them, and they shall be prophesying. 1 Ki. 10:5
And they came to the foresaid hill, and behold a company of prophets met him: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and he prophesied in the midst of them. 1 Ki. 10:10
And one answered another, saying: And who is <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 10:12">their fathera>? therefore it became a proverb: Is Saul also among the prophets? 1 Ki. 10:12
But you this day have rejected your God, who only hath saved you out of all your evils and your tribulations: and you have said: Nay: but set a king over us. Now therefore stand before the Lord by your tribes, and by your families. 1 Ki. 10:19
And Samuel told the people the law of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the Lord: and Samuel sent away all the people, every one to his own house. 1 Ki. 10:25
Saul also departed to his own house in Gabaa: and there went with him a part of the army, whose hearts God had touched. 1 Ki. 10:26
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 11:0">¤a> And it came to pass about a month after this, that Naas, the Ammonite, came up, and began to fight against Jabes Galaad. And all the men of Jabes said to Naas: Make a covenant with us, and we will serve thee. 1 Ki. 11:1
And Naas, the Ammonite, answered them: On this condition will I make a covenant with you, that I may pluck out all your right eyes, and make you a reproach in all Israel. 1 Ki. 11:2
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 12:0">¤a> And Samuel said to all Israel: Behold I have hearkened to your voice in all that you said to me, and have made a king over you. 1 Ki. 12:1
Speak of me before the Lord, and before his anointed, whether I have taken any man's ox, or ass: if I have wronged any man, if I have oppressed any man, if I have taken a bribe at any man's hand: and I will despise it this day, and will restore it to you. 1 Ki. 12:3
But seeing that Naas, king of the children of Ammon, was come against you, you said to me: Nay, but a king shall reign over us: whereas the Lord your God was your king. 1 Ki. 12:12
Now, therefore, your king is here, whom you have chosen and desired: Behold the Lord hath given you a king. 1 Ki. 12:13
Is it not <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 12:17">wheat harvesta> to day? I will call upon the Lord, and he shall send thunder and rain: and you shall know, and see that you yourselves have done a great evil in the sight of the Lord, in desiring a king over you. 1 Ki. 12:17
And all the people greatly feared the Lord and Samuel. And all the people said to Samuel: Pray for thy servants to the Lord thy God, that we may not die, for we have added to all our sins this evil, to ask for a king. 1 Ki. 12:19
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 13:0">¤a> Saul was a child <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 13:1">of one yeara> when he began to reign, and he reigned two years over Israel. 1 Ki. 13:1
And Saul chose him three thousand men of Israel: and two thousand were with Saul in Machmas, and in mount Bethel: and a thousand with Jonathan in Gabaa of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent back every man to their dwellings. 1 Ki. 13:2
The Philistines also were assembled to fight against Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and a multitude of people besides, like the sand on the seashore for number. And going up they camped in Machmas, at the east of Bethaven. 1 Ki. 13:5
But thy kingdom shall not continue. The Lord hath sought him a man according to his own heart: and him hath the Lord commanded to be prince over his people, because thou hast not observed that which the Lord commanded. 1 Ki. 13:14
And his armourbearer said to him: Do all that pleaseth thy mind: go whither thou wilt, and I will be with thee wheresoever thou hast a mind. 1 Ki. 14:7
But if they shall say: Come up to us: let us go up, because the Lord hath delivered them into our hands, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 14:10">this shall be a signa> unto us. 1 Ki. 14:10
And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan, and to his armourbearer, and said: Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said to his armourbearer: Let us go up, follow me: for the Lord hath delivered them into the hands of Israel. 1 Ki. 14:12
And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armourbearer made, was of about twenty men, within half an acre of land, which a yoke of oxen is wont to plough in a day. 1 Ki. 14:14
And there was a miracle in the camp, in the fields: and all the people of their garrison, who had gone out to plunder, were amazed, and the earth trembled: and it happened as a miracle from God. 1 Ki. 14:15
And the watchmen of Saul, who were in Gabaa of Benjamin looked, and behold a multitude overthrown, and fleeing this way and that. 1 Ki. 14:16
And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great uproar in the camp of the Philistines: and it increased by degrees, and was heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest: Draw in thy hand. 1 Ki. 14:19
Then Saul, and all the people that were with him, shouted together, and they came to the place of the fight: and behold every man's sword was turned upon his neighbour, and there was a very great slaughter. 1 Ki. 14:20
And all the common people came into a forest, in which there was honey upon the ground. 1 Ki. 14:25
But Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people: and he put forth the end of the rod, which he had in his hand, and dipt it in a honeycomb: and he carried his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were enlightened. 1 Ki. 14:27
And Jonathan said: My father hath troubled the land: you have seen yourselves that my eyes are enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey: 1 Ki. 14:29
How much more if the people had eaten of the prey of their enemies, which they found? had there not been made a greater slaughter among the Philistines? 1 Ki. 14:30
And they told Saul that the people had sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood. And he said: You have transgressed: roll here to me now a great stone. 1 Ki. 14:33
And Saul said: Let us fall upon the Philistines by night, and destroy them till the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And the people said: Do all that seemeth good in thy eyes. And the priest said: Let us draw near hither unto God. 1 Ki. 14:36
And Saul said to the Lord: O Lord God of Israel, give a sign, by which we may know, what the meaning is, that thou answerest not thy servant to day: If this iniquity be in me, or in my son Jonathan, give a proof: or if this iniquity be in thy people, give holiness. And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped. 1 Ki. 14:41
And Saul said to Jonathan: Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said: I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod, which was in my hand, and behold I must die. 1 Ki. 14:43
And there was a great war against the Philistines all the days of Saul. For whomsoever Saul saw to be a valiant man, and fit for war, he took him to himself. 1 Ki. 14:52
And when Samuel rose early, to go to Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel that Saul was come to Carmel, and had erected for himself a triumphant arch, and returning had passed on, and gone down to Galgal. And Samuel came to Saul, and Saul was offering a holocaust to the Lord, out of the choicest of the spoils, which he had brought from Amalec. 1 Ki. 15:12
And Samuel said: When thou wast a little one in thy own eyes, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel? And the Lord anointed thee to be king over Israel. 1 Ki. 15:17
But the triumpher in Israel will not spare, and will not be moved to repentance: for he is not a man that he should repent. 1 Ki. 15:29
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 16:0">¤a> And the Lord said to Samuel: How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, whom I have rejected from reigning over Israel? fill thy horn with oil, and come, that I may send thee to Isai, the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons. 1 Ki. 16:1
And Samuel said: How shall I go? for Saul will hear of it, and he will kill me. And the Lord said: Thou shalt take with thee a calf of the herd, and thou shalt say: I am come to sacrifice to the Lord. 1 Ki. 16:2
And Samuel said to Isai: Are here all thy sons? He answered: There remaineth yet a young one, who keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said to Isai: Send, and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither. 1 Ki. 16:11
He sent therefore and brought him. Now he was ruddy and beautiful to behold, and of a comely face. And the Lord said: Arise, and anoint him, for this is he. 1 Ki. 16:12
Let our lord give orders, and thy servants who are before thee, will seek out a man skilful in playing on the harp, that when the evil spirit from the Lord is upon thee, he may play with his hand, and thou mayst bear it more easily. 1 Ki. 16:16
And one of the servants answering, said: Behold I have seen a son of Isai, the Bethlehemite, a skilful player, and one of great strength, and a man fit for war, and prudent in his words, and a comely person: and the Lord is with him. 1 Ki. 16:18
And Isai took an ass laden with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid of the flock, and sent them by the hand of David, his son, to Saul. 1 Ki. 16:20
And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them. 1 Ki. 17:3
And there went out a man baseborn from the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Geth, whose height was six cubits and a span: 1 Ki. 17:4
And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a coat of mail with scales, and the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass: 1 Ki. 17:5
And he had greaves of brass on his legs, and a buckler of brass covered his shoulders. 1 Ki. 17:6
And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred sicles of iron: and his armourbearer went before him. 1 Ki. 17:7
And standing, he cried out to the bands of Israel, and said to them: Why are you come out prepared to fight? am not I a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose out a man of you, and let him come down and fight hand to hand. 1 Ki. 17:8
And the Philistine said: I have defied the bands of Israel this day: give me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand. 1 Ki. 17:10
And he turned a little aside from him to another: and said the same word. And the people answered him as before. 1 Ki. 17:30
And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth. 1 Ki. 17:33
And David said to Saul: Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, or a bear, and took a ram out of the midst of the flock: 1 Ki. 17:34
For I thy servant have killed both a lion and a bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be also as one of them. I will go now, and take away the reproach of the people: for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who hath dared to curse the army of the living God? 1 Ki. 17:36
And Saul clothed David with his garments, and put a helmet of brass upon his head, and armed him with a coat of mail. 1 Ki. 17:38
And he took his staff, which he had always in his hands: and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into the shepherd's scrip, which he had with him, and he took a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistine. 1 Ki. 17:40
And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance. 1 Ki. 17:42
And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. 1 Ki. 17:43
And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied 1 Ki. 17:45
This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. 1 Ki. 17:46
And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about, struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth. 1 Ki. 17:49
And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword in his hand, 1 Ki. 17:50
And David and Jonathan made a covenant, for he loved him as his own soul. 1 Ki. 18:3
And Saul was exceeding angry, and this word was displeasing in his eyes, and he said: They have given David ten thousands, and to me they have given but a thousand, what can he have more but the kingdom? 1 Ki. 18:8
And Saul did not look on David with a good eye from that day and forward. 1 Ki. 18:9
And the day after, the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 18:10">prophesieda> in the midst of his house. And David played with his hand as at other times. And Saul held a spear in his hand, 1 Ki. 18:10
Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him a captain over a thousand men, and he went out and came in before the people. 1 Ki. 18:13
And Saul said to David: Behold my elder daughter Merob, her will I give thee to wife: only be a valiant man, and fight the battles of the Lord. Now Saul said within himself: Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hands of the Philistines be upon him. 1 Ki. 18:17
And Saul said: I will give her to him, that she may be a stumblingblock to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be upon him. And Saul said to David: In two things thou shalt be my son in law this day. 1 Ki. 18:21
And the servants of Saul spoke all these words in the ears of David. And David said: Doth it seem to you a small matter to be the king's son in law? But I am a poor man, and of small ability. 1 Ki. 18:23
And Saul said: Speak thus to David: The king desireth not any dowry, but only a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. Now Saul thought to deliver David into the hands of the Philistines. 1 Ki. 18:25
And after a few days David rose up, and went with the men that were under him, and he slew of the Philistines two hundred men, and brought their foreskins and numbered them out to the king, that he might be his son in law. Saul therefore gave him Michol, his daughter, to wife. 1 Ki. 18:27
And Jonathan told David, saying: Saul, my father, seeketh to kill thee: wherefore look to thyself, I beseech thee, in the morning and thou shalt abide in a secret place, and shalt be hid. 1 Ki. 19:2
And the war began again, and David went out, and fought against the Philistines, and defeated them with a great slaughter, and they fled from his face. 1 Ki. 19:8
And the evil spirit from the Lord came upon Saul; and he sat in his house, and held a spear in his hand: and David played with his hand. 1 Ki. 19:9
She let him down through a window. And he went and fled away, and escaped. 1 Ki. 19:12
And Michol took an image, and laid it on the bed, and put a goat's skin, with the hair at the head of it, and covered it with clothes. 1 Ki. 19:13
And when the messengers were come in, they found an image upon the bed, and a goat skin at his head. 1 Ki. 19:16
So Saul sent officers to take David: and when they saw a company of prophets <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 19:20">prophesyinga>, and Samuel presiding over them, the Spirit of the Lord came also upon them, and they likewise began to prophesy. 1 Ki. 19:20
And he stripped himself also of his garments, and prophesied with the rest before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and night. This gave occasion to a proverb: What! is Saul too among the prophets? 1 Ki. 19:24
Deal mercifully then with thy servant: for thou hast brought me, thy servant, into a covenant of the Lord with thee. But if there be any iniquity in me, do thou kill me, and bring me not in to thy father. 1 Ki. 20:8
Jonathan therefore made a covenant with the house of David: and the Lord required it at the hands of David's enemies. 1 Ki. 20:16
And I will shoot three arrows near it, and will shoot as if I were exercising myself at a mark. 1 Ki. 20:20
And I will send a boy, saying to him: Go and fetch me the arrows. 1 Ki. 20:21
And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table. 1 Ki. 20:29
Then Saul being angry against Jonathan, said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion, and to the confusion of thy shameless mother? 1 Ki. 20:30
And Saul caught up a spear to strike him. And Jonathan understood that it was determined by his father to kill David. 1 Ki. 20:33
And when the morning came, Jonathan went into the field according to the appointment with David, and a little boy with him. 1 Ki. 20:35
And David said to Achimelech, the priest: The king hath commanded me a business, and said: Let no man know the thing for which thou art sent by me, and what manner of commands I have given thee: and I have appointed my servants to such and such a place. 1 Ki. 21:2
Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, within the tabernacle of the Lord: and his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chiefest of Saul's herdsmen. 1 Ki. 21:7
And David said to Achimelech: Hast thou here at hand a spear, or a sword? for I brought not my own sword, nor my own weapons with me, for the king's business required haste. 1 Ki. 21:8
And the priest said: Lo, here is the sword of Goliath, the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Terebinth, wrapped up in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take this, take it, for here there is no other but this. And David said: There is none like that, give it me. 1 Ki. 21:9
And Saul said to him: Why have you conspired against me, thou, and the son of Isai, and thou hast given him bread and a sword, and hast consulted the Lord for him, that he should rise up against me, continuing a traitor to this day. 1 Ki. 22:13
Did I begin to day to consult the Lord for him? far be this from me: let not the king suspect such a thing against his servant, or any one in all my father's house: for thy servant knew nothing of this matter, either little or great. 1 Ki. 22:15
David, therefore, and his men, went to Ceila, and fought against the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and made a great slaughter of them: and David saved the inhabitants of Ceila. 1 Ki. 23:5
And it was told Saul that David was come to Ceila: and Saul said: The Lord hath delivered him into my hands, and he is shut up, being come into a city that hath gates and bars. 1 Ki. 23:7
And David said: O Lord God of Israel, thy servant hath heard a report, that Saul designeth to come to Ceila, to destroy the city for my sake: 1 Ki. 23:10
But David abode in the desert in strong holds, and he remained in a mountain of the desert of Ziph, in a woody hill. And Saul sought him always: but the Lord delivered him not into his hands. 1 Ki. 23:14
And David saw that Saul was come out to seek his life. And David was in the desert of Ziph, in a wood. 1 Ki. 23:15
And they two made a covenant before the Lord: and David abode in the wood: but Jonathan returned to his house. 1 Ki. 23:18
And a messenger came to Saul, saying: Make haste to come, for the Philistines have poured in themselves upon the land. 1 Ki. 23:27
And he came to the sheepcotes which were in his way. And there was a cave, into which Saul went, to ease nature: now David and his men lay hid in the inner part of the cave. 1 Ki. 24:3
Behold this day thy eyes have seen, that the Lord hath delivered thee into my hand, in the cave, and I had <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 24:10">a thought to kill theea>, but my eye hath spared thee. For I said: I will not put out my hand against my lord, because he is the Lord's anointed. 1 Ki. 24:10
After whom dost thou pursue? After a dead dog, after a flea. 1 Ki. 24:14
Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel. 1 Ki. 25:2
Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman: but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb. 1 Ki. 25:3
Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David. 1 Ki. 25:8
But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters. 1 Ki. 25:10
They were a wall unto us, both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep. 1 Ki. 25:16
Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him. 1 Ki. 25:17
Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses: 1 Ki. 25:18
Let not my lord the king, I pray thee, regard this naughty man, Nabal: for according to <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 25:25">his namea>, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I, thy handmaid, did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest. 1 Ki. 25:25
Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life. 1 Ki. 25:28
For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling. 1 Ki. 25:29
This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid. 1 Ki. 25:31
And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king: and Nabal's heart was merry, for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning. 1 Ki. 25:36
But early in the morning, when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone. 1 Ki. 25:37
And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 25:39">Blessed bea> the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach, at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife. 1 Ki. 25:39
And David's servants came to Abigail, to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying: David hath sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife. 1 Ki. 25:40
And she arose, and bowed herself down with her face to the earth, and said: Behold, let thy servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord. 1 Ki. 25:41
And David arose secretly, and came to the place where Saul was: and when he had beheld the place, wherein Saul slept, and Abner, the son of Ner, the captain of his army, and Saul sleeping in a tent, and the rest of the multitude round about him, 1 Ki. 26:5
And Abisai said to David: God hath shut up thy enemy this day into thy hands: now then I will run him through with my spear, even to the earth at once, and there shall be no need of a second time. 1 Ki. 26:8
So David took the spear, and the cup of water which was at Saul's head, and they went away: and no man saw it, or knew it, or awaked, but they were all asleep, for a deep sleep from the Lord was fallen upon them. 1 Ki. 26:12
And when David was gone over to the other side, and stood on the top of the hill afar off, and a good space was between them, 1 Ki. 26:13
And David said to Abner: Art not thou a man? and who is like unto thee in Israel? why then hast thou not kept thy lord the king? for there came one of the people in to kill the king thy lord. 1 Ki. 26:15
And now let not my blood be shed upon the earth before the Lord: for the king of Israel is come out to seek a flea, as the partridge is hunted in the mountains. 1 Ki. 26:20
And David said to Achis: If I have found favour in thy sight, let a place be given me in one of the cities of this country, that I may dwell there: for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee? 1 Ki. 27:5
And Saul said to his servants: Seek me a woman that hath a divining spirit, and I will go to her, and enquire by her. And his servants said to him: There is a woman that hath a divining spirit at Endor. 1 Ki. 28:7
And the woman said to him: Behold thou knowest all that Saul hath done, and how he hath rooted out the magicians and soothsayers from the land: why then dost thou lay a snare for my life, to cause me to be put to death? 1 Ki. 28:9
And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice, and said to Saul: Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul. 1 Ki. 28:12
And he said to her: What form is he of? And she said: An old man cometh up, and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1sa 28:14">understood that it was Samuela>, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground, and adored. 1 Ki. 28:14
Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set before thee a morsel of bread, that thou mayst eat and recover strength, and be able to go on thy journey. 1 Ki. 28:22
Now the woman had a fatted calf in the house, and she made haste and killed it: and taking meal, kneaded it, and baked some unleavened bread, 1 Ki. 28:24
And David was greatly afflicted: for the people had a mind to stone him, for the soul of every man was bitterly grieved for his sons and daughters: but David took courage in the Lord his God. 1 Ki. 30:6
As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them, his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water, three days and three nights. 1 Ki. 30:12
And David said to him: To whom dost thou belong; or whence dost thou come? and whither art thou going? He said: I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalecite: and my master left me, because I began to be sick three days ago. 1 Ki. 30:13
And when he had brought him, behold they were lying spread abroad upon all the ground, eating and drinking, and as it were keeping a festival day, for all the prey and the spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda. 1 Ki. 30:16
And David slew them from the evening unto the evening of the next day, and there escaped not a man of them, but four hundred young men, who had gotten upon camels, and fled. 1 Ki. 30:17
And this hath been done from that day forward, and since was made a statute and an ordinance, and as a law in Israel. 1 Ki. 30:25
Then David came to Siceleg, and sent presents of the prey to the ancients of Juda, his neighbours, saying: Receive a blessing of the prey of the enemies of the Lord. 1 Ki. 30:26
And on the third day, there appeared a man who came out of Saul's camp, with his garments rent, and dust strewed on his head: and when he came to David, he fell upon his face, and adored. 2 Ki. 1:2
And David said to the young man that told him: Whence art thou? He answered: I am the son of a stranger of Amalec. 2 Ki. 1:13
And there was a very fierce battle that day: and Abner was put to flight, with the men of Israel, by the servants of David. 2 Ki. 2:17
And there were the three sons of Sarvia there, Joab, and Abisai, and Asael: now Asael was a most swift runner, like one of the roes that abide in the woods. 2 Ki. 2:18
But he refused to hearken to him, and would not turn aside: wherefore Abner struck him with his spear with a back stroke in the groin, and thrust him through, and he died upon the spot: and all that came to the place where Asael fell down and died stood still. 2 Ki. 2:23
And the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together to Abner: and being joined in one body, they stood on the top of a hill. 2 Ki. 2:25
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 3:0">¤a> Now <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 3:1">there was a long war between the house of Saula> and the house of David: David prospering and growing always stronger and stronger, but the house of Saul decaying daily. 2 Ki. 3:1
And Saul had a concubine named Respha, the daughter of Aia. And Isboseth said to Abner: 2 Ki. 3:7
Why didst thou go in to my father's concubine? And he was exceedingly angry for the words of Isboseth, and said: Am I a dog's head against Juda this day, who have shewn mercy to the house of Saul thy father, and to his brethren and friends, and have not delivered thee into the hands of David, and hast thou sought this day against me to charge me with a matter concerning a woman? 2 Ki. 3:8
And he could not answer him a word, because he feared him. 2 Ki. 3:11
Abner therefore sent messengers to David for himself, saying: Whose is the land? and that they should say: Make a league with me, and my hand shall be with thee: and I will bring all Israel to thee. 2 Ki. 3:12
And he said: Very well: I will make a league with thee: but one thing I require of thee, saying: Thou shalt not see my face before thou bring Michol the daughter of Saul: and so thou shalt come, and see me. 2 Ki. 3:13
And David sent messengers to Isboseth the son of Saul, saying: Restore my wife Michol, whom I espoused to me for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines. 2 Ki. 3:14
And he came to David in Hebron with twenty men: and David made a feast for Abner, and his men that came with him. 2 Ki. 3:20
And Abner said to David: I will rise, that I may gather all Israel unto thee my lord the king, and may enter into a league with thee, and that thou mayst reign over all as thy soul desireth. Now when David had brought Abner on his way, and he was gone in peace, 2 Ki. 3:21
And may it come upon the head of Joab, and upon all his father's house: and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that hath an issue of seed, or that is a leper, or that holdeth the distaff, or that falleth by the sword, or that wanteth bread. 2 Ki. 3:29
The king also said to his servants: Do you not know that a prince and a great man is slain this day in Israel? 2 Ki. 3:38
Now the son of Saul had two men captains of his bands, the name of the one was Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Remmon a Berothite of the children of Benjamin: for Beroth also was reckoned in Benjamin. 2 Ki. 4:2
And Jonathan the son of Saul had a son that was lame of his feet: for he was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan from Jezrahel. And his nurse took him up and fled: and as she made haste to flee, he fell and became lame: and his name was Miphiboseth. 2 Ki. 4:4
For when they came into the house, he was sleeping upon his bed in a parlour, and they struck him and killed him and taking away his head they went off by the way of the wilderness, walking all night. 2 Ki. 4:7
The ancients also of Israel came to the king of Hebron, and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David to be king over Israel. 2 Ki. 5:3
For David had offered that day a reward to whosoever should strike the Jebusites and get up to the gutters of the tops of the houses, and take away the blind and the lame that hated the soul of David: therefore it is said in the proverb: The blind and the lame shall not come into the temple. 2 Ki. 5:8
And Hiram the king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons for walls: and they built a house for David. 2 Ki. 5:11
And the Philistines heard that they had anointed David to be king over Israel: and they all came to seek David: and when David heard of it, he went down to a strong hold. 2 Ki. 5:17
And David consulted the Lord: Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou deliver them into my hands? He answered: Go not up against them but fetch a compass behind them, and thou shalt come upon them over against the pear trees. 2 Ki. 5:23
And they laid the ark of God upon a new cart: and took it out of the house of Abinadab, who was in <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 6:3">Gabaaa>, and Oza and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart. 2 Ki. 6:3
And when they that carried the ark of the Lord had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a ram: 2 Ki. 6:13
And David danced with all his might before the Lord: and David was girded with a linen ephod. 2 Ki. 6:14
And when the ark of the Lord was come into the city of David, Michol the daughter of Saul, looking out through a window, saw king David leaping and dancing before the Lord: and she despised him in her heart. 2 Ki. 6:16
And he distributed to all the multitude of Israel, both men and women, to every one, a cake of bread, and a piece of roasted beef, and fine flour fried with oil: and all the people departed every one to his house. 2 Ki. 6:19
He said to Nathan the prophet: Dost thou see that I dwell in a house of cedar, and the ark of God is lodged within skins? 2 Ki. 7:2
Go, and say to my servant David: Thus saith the Lord: Shalt thou build me a house to dwell in? 2 Ki. 7:5
Whereas I have not dwelt in a house from the day that I brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt even to this day: but have walked in a tabernacle, and in a tent. 2 Ki. 7:6
In all the places that I have gone through with all the children of Israel, did ever I speak a word to any one of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying: Why have you not built me a house of cedar? 2 Ki. 7:7
And I have been with thee wheresoever thou hast walked, and have slain all thy enemies from before thy face: and I have made thee a great man, like unto the name of the great ones that are on the earth. 2 Ki. 7:9
And I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and I will plant them, and they shall dwell therein, and shall be disturbed no more: neither shall the children of iniquity afflict them any more as they did before, 2 Ki. 7:10
From the day that I appointed judges over my people Israel: and I will give thee rest from all thy enemies. And the Lord foretelleth to thee, that the Lord will make thee a house. 2 Ki. 7:11
He shall build a house to my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever. 2 Ki. 7:13
I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son: and if he commit any iniquity, I will correct him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men. 2 Ki. 7:14
But yet this hath seemed little in thy sight, O Lord God, unless thou didst also speak of the house of thy servant for a long time to come: for this is the law of Adam, O Lord God: 2 Ki. 7:19
And what nation is there upon earth, as thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to himself, and to make him a name, and to do for them great and terrible things, upon the earth, before the face of thy people, whom thou redeemedst to thyself out of Egypt, from the nations and their gods. 2 Ki. 7:23
Because thou, O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, hast revealed to the ear of thy servant, saying: I will build thee a house: therefore hath thy servant found in his heart to pray this prayer to thee. 2 Ki. 7:27
And he defeated Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the earth: and he measured with two lines, one to put to death, and one to save alive: and Moab was made to serve David under tribute. 2 Ki. 8:2
And David took from him a thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and houghed all the chariot horses: and only reserved of them for one hundred chariots. 2 Ki. 8:4
David also made himself a name, when he returned after taking Syria in the valley of the saltpits, killing eighteen thousand: 2 Ki. 8:13
And he put guards in Edom, and placed there a garrison: and all Edom was made to serve David: and the Lord preserved David in all enterprises he went about. 2 Ki. 8:14
Now there was of the house of Saul, a servant named Siba: and when the king had called him to him, he said to him: Art thou Siba? And he answered: I am Siba thy servant. 2 Ki. 9:2
And the king said: Is there any one left of the house of Saul, that I may shew the mercy of God unto Him? And Siba said to the king: There is a son of Jonathan left, who is lame of his feet. 2 Ki. 9:3
He bowed down to him, and said: Who am I thy servant, that thou shouldst look upon such a dead dog as I am? 2 Ki. 9:8
And Miphiboseth had a young son whose name was Micha: and all the kindred of the house of Siba served Miphiboseth. 2 Ki. 9:12
And the children of Ammon seeing that they had done an injury to David, sent and hired the Syrians of Rohob, and the Syrians of Soba, twenty thousand footmen, and of the king of Maacha a thousand men, and of Istob twelve thousand men. 2 Ki. 10:6
In the mean time it happened that David arose from his bed after noon, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: And he saw from the roof of his house a woman washing herself, over against him: and the woman was very beautiful. 2 Ki. 11:2
And David said to Urias: Go into thy house, and wash thy feet. And Urias went out from the king's house, and there went out after him a mess of meat from the king. 2 Ki. 11:8
And when the morning was come, David wrote a letter to Joab: and sent it by the hand of Urias, 2 Ki. 11:14
Who killed Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall and slew him in Thebes? Why did you go near the wall? Thou shalt say: Thy servant Urias the Hethite is also slain. 2 Ki. 11:21
And the mourning being over, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore him a son: and this thing which David had done, was displeasing to the Lord. 2 Ki. 11:27
But the poor man had nothing at all but one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up, and which had grown up in his house together with his children, eating of his bread, and drinking of his cup, and sleeping in his bosom: and it was unto him as a daughter. 2 Ki. 12:3
And when a certain stranger was come to the rich man, he spared to take of his own sheep and oxen, to make a feast for that stranger, who was come to him, but took the poor man's ewe, and dressed it for the man that was come to him. 2 Ki. 12:4
And David's anger being exceedingly kindled against that man, he said to Nathan: As the Lord liveth, the man that hath done this is a child of death. 2 Ki. 12:5
And David besought the Lord for the child: and David kept a fast, and going in by himself lay upon the ground. 2 Ki. 12:16
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 took the crown of their king from his head, the weight of which was a talent of gold, set with most precious stones, and it was put upon David's head, and the spoils of the city which were very great he carried away. 2 Ki. 12:30
And he was exceedingly fond of her, so that he fell sick for the love of her: for as she was a virgin, he thought it hard to do any thing dishonestly with her. 2 Ki. 13:2
Now Ammon had a friend, named Jonadab the son of Semmaa the brother of David, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 13:3">a very wise mana>: 2 Ki. 13:3
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
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 she was clothed with a long robe: for the king's daughters that were virgins, used such kind of garments. Then his servant thrust her out: and shut the door after her. 2 Ki. 13:18
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 while they were yet in the way, a rumour came to David, saying: Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left. 2 Ki. 13:30
But Absalom fled away: and the young man that kept the watch, lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold there came much people by a by-way on the side of the mountain. 2 Ki. 13:34
Sent to Thecua, and fetched from thence a wise woman: and said to her: Feign thyself to be a mourner, and put on mourning apparel, and be not anointed with oil, that thou mayest be as a woman that had a long time been mourning for one dead. 2 Ki. 14:2
And the king said to her: What is the matter with thee? She answered: Alas, I am a widow woman: for my husband is dead. 2 Ki. 14:5
And the woman said: Why hast thou thought such a thing against the people of God, and why hath the king spoken this word, to sin, and not bring home again his own exile? 2 Ki. 14:13
We all die, and like waters that return no more, we fall down into the earth: neither will God have a soul to perish, but recalleth, meaning that he that is cast off should not altogether perish. 2 Ki. 14:14
Then let thy handmaid say, that the word of the Lord the king be made as a sacrifice. For even as an angel of God, so is my lord the king, that he is neither moved with blessing nor cursing: wherefore the Lord thy God is also with thee. 2 Ki. 14:17
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 said to his servants: You know the field of Joab near my field, that hath a crop of barley: go now and set it on fire. So the servants of Absalom set the corn on fire. And Joab's servants coming with their garments rent, said: The servants of Absalom have set part of the field on fire. 2 Ki. 14:30
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
For thy servant made a vow, when he was in Gessur of Syria, saying: If the Lord shall bring me again into Jerusalem, I will offer sacrifice to the Lord. 2 Ki. 15:8

And there came a messenger to David, saying: All Israel with their whole heart followeth Absalom. 2 Ki. 15:13
And the king said to Ethai the Gethite: Why comest thou with us: return and dwell with the king, for thou art a stranger, and art come out of thy own place. 2 Ki. 15:19
And they all wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself went over the brook Cedron, and all the people marched towards the way that looketh to the desert. 2 Ki. 15:23
And David said to him: If thou come with me, thou wilt be a burden to me: 2 Ki. 15:33
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 16:0">¤a> And when David was a little past the top of the hill, behold Siba the servant of Miphiboseth came to meet him with two asses, laden with two hundred loaves of bread, and a hundred bunches of raisins, a hundred cakes of figs, and a vessel of wine. 2 Ki. 16:1
And king David came as far as Bahurim: and behold there came out from thence a man of the kindred of the house of Saul named Semei, the son of Gera, and coming out he cursed as he went on, 2 Ki. 16:5
The Lord hath repaid thee for all the blood of the house of Saul: because thou hast usurped the kingdom in his stead, and the Lord hath given the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and behold thy evils press upon thee, because thou art a man of blood. 2 Ki. 16:8
And the king said to Abisai, and to all his servants: Behold my son, who came forth from my bowels, seeketh my life: how much more now a son of Jemini? let him alone that he may curse as the Lord hath bidden him. 2 Ki. 16:11
So they spread a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and he went in to his father's concubines before all Israel. 2 Ki. 16:22
Now the counsel of Achitophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man should consult God: so was all the counsel of Achitophel, both when he was with David, and when he was with Absalom. 2 Ki. 16:23
And again Chusai said: Thou knowest thy father, and the men that are with him, that they are very valiant, and bitter in their mind, as a bear raging in the wood when her whelps are taken away: and thy father is a warrior, and will not lodge with the people. 2 Ki. 17:8
Perhaps he now lieth hid in pits, or in some other place where he liest: and when any one shall fall at the first, every one that heareth it shall say: There is a slaughter among the people that followed Absalom. 2 Ki. 17:9
And the most valiant man whose heart is as the heart of a lion, shall melt for fear: for all the people of Israel know thy father to be a valiant man, and that all who are with him are valiant. 2 Ki. 17:10
And Jonathan and Achimaas stayed by the fountain Rogel: and there went a maid and told them: and they went forward, to carry the message to king David, for they might not be seen, nor enter into the city. 2 Ki. 17:17
But a certain boy saw them, and told Absalom: but they making haste went into the house of a certain man in Bahurim, who had a well in his court, and they went down into it. 2 Ki. 17:18
And a woman took, and spread a covering over the mouth of the well, as it were to dry sodden barley and so the thing was not known. 2 Ki. 17:19
And when Absalom's servants were come into the house, they said to the woman: Where is Achimaas and Jonathan? and the woman answered them: They passed on in haste, after they had tasted a little water. But they that sought them, when they found them not, returned into Jerusalem. 2 Ki. 17:20
Now Absalom appointed Amasa in Joab's stead over the army: and Amasa was the son of a man who was called Jethra, of Jezrael, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Naas, the sister of Sarvia who was the mother of Joab. 2 Ki. 17:25
And sent forth a third part of the people under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abisai the son of Sarvia Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ethai, who was of Geth: and the king said to the people: I also will go forth with you. 2 Ki. 18:2
And the people of Israel were defeated there by David's army, and a great slaughter was made that day of twenty thousand men. 2 Ki. 18:7
And it happened that Absalom met the servants of David, riding on a mule: and as the mule went under a thick and large oak, his head stuck in the oak: and while he hung between the heaven and the earth, the mule on which he rode passed on. 2 Ki. 18:9
And Joab said to the man that told him: If thou sawest him, why didst thou not stab him to the ground, and I would have given thee ten sicles of silver, and a belt? 2 Ki. 18:11
And he said to Joab: If thou wouldst have paid down in my hands a thousand pieces of silver, I would not lay my hands upon the king's son for in our hearing the king charged thee, and Abisai, and Ethai, saying: Save me the boy Absalom. 2 Ki. 18:12
And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the forest, and they laid an exceeding great heap of stones upon him: but all Israel fled to their own dwellings. 2 Ki. 18:17
Now Absalom had reared up for himself, in his lifetime, a pillar, which is in the king's valley: for he said: I have <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 18:18">no sona>, and this shall be the monument of my name. And he called the pillar by his own name, and it is called the hand of Absalom, to this day. 2 Ki. 18:18
He answered: But what if I run? And he said to him: Run. Then Achimaas running by a nearer way passed Chusai. 2 Ki. 18:23
And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman that was on the top of the gate upon the wall, lifting up his eyes, saw a man running alone. 2 Ki. 18:24
The watchman saw another man running, and crying aloud from above, he said: I see another man running alone. And the king said: He also is a good messenger. 2 Ki. 18:26
And the watchman said: The running of the foremost seemeth to me like the running of Achimaas the son of Sadoc. And the king said: He is a good man: and cometh with good news. 2 Ki. 18:27
And the king said: Is the young man Absalom safe? And Achimaas said: I saw a great tumult, O king, when thy servant Joab sent me thy servant: I know nothing else. 2 Ki. 18:29
And the people shunned the going into the city that day as a people would do that hath turned their backs, and fled away from the battle. 2 Ki. 19:3
And the king covered his head, and cried with a loud voice: O my son Absalom, O Absalom my son, O my son. 2 Ki. 19:4
With a thousand men of Benjamin, and Siba the servant of the house of Saul: and his fifteen sons, and twenty servants were with him: and going over the Jordan, 2 Ki. 19:17
And David said: What have I to do with you, ye sons of Sarvia? why are you a satan this day to me? shall there any man be killed this day in Israel? do not I know that this day I am made king over Israel? 2 Ki. 19:22
Now Berzellai the Galaadite was of a great age, that is to say, fourscore years old, and he provided the king with sustenance when he abode in the camp: for he was a man exceeding rich. 2 Ki. 19:32
I am this day fourscore years old, are my senses quick to discern sweet and bitter? or can meat or drink delight thy servant? or can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? why should thy servant be a burden to my lord, the king? 2 Ki. 19:35
I thy servant will go on a little way from the Jordan with thee: I need not this recompense. 2 Ki. 19:36
And the men of Israel answered the men of Juda, and said: I have ten parts in the king more than thou, and David belongeth to me more than to thee: why hast thou done me a wrong, and why was it not told me first, that I might bring back my king? And the men of Juda answered more harshly than the men of Israel. 2 Ki. 19:43
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 20:0">¤a> And there happened to be there a man of Belial, whose name was Seba, the son of Bochri, a man of Jemini: and he sounded the trumpet, and said: We have no part in David, nor inheritance in the son of Isai: return to thy dwellings, O Israel. 2 Ki. 20:1
And when they were at the great stone which is in Gabaon, Amasa coming met them. And Joab had on a close coat of equal length with his habit, and over it was girded with a sword hanging down to his flank, in a scabbard, made in such manner as to come out with the least motion and strike. 2 Ki. 20:8
But Amasa did not take notice of the sword, which Joab had, and he struck him in the side, and shed out his bowels to the ground, and gave him not a second wound, and he died. And Joab, and Abisai his brother pursued after Seba the son of Bochri. 2 Ki. 20:10
And Amasa imbrued with blood, lay in the midst of the way. A certain man saw this that all the people stood still to look upon him, so he removed Amasa out of the highway into the field, and covered him with a garment, that they who passed might, not stop on his account. 2 Ki. 20:12
And a wise woman cried out from the city: Hear, hear, and say to Joab: Come near hither, and I will speak with thee. 2 Ki. 20:16
And she again said: A saying was used in the old proverb: They that inquire, let them inquire in Abela: and so they made an end. 2 Ki. 20:18
Am not I she that answer truth in Israel, and thou seekest to destroy the city, and to overthrow a mother in Israel? Why wilt thou throw down the inheritance of the Lord? 2 Ki. 20:19
The matter is not so, but a man of mount Ephraim, Seba the son of Bochri by name, hath lifted up his hand against king David: deliver him only, and we will depart from the city. And the woman said to Joab: Behold his head shall be thrown to thee from the wall. 2 Ki. 20:21
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 21:0">¤a> And there was a famine in the days of David for three years successively: and David consulted the oracle of the Lord. And the Lord said: It is for Saul, and his bloody house, because he slew the Gabaonites. 2 Ki. 21:1
And gave them into the hands of the Gabaonites: and they crucified them on a hill before the Lord: and these seven died together in the first days of the harvest, when the barley began to be reaped. 2 Ki. 21:9
Jesbibenob, who was of the race of Arapha, the iron of whose spear weighed three hundred ounces, being girded with a new sword, attempted to kill David. 2 Ki. 21:16
There was also a second battle in Gob against the Philistines: then Sobochai of Husathi slew Saph of the race of Arapha of the family of the giants. 2 Ki. 21:18
And there was a third battle in Gob against the Philistines, in which <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2sa 21:19">Adeodatus the son of the Forresta> an embroiderer of Bethlehem slew Goliath the Gethite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam. 2 Ki. 21:19
A fourth battle was in Geth: where there was a man of great stature, that had six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, four and twenty in all, and he was of the race of Arapha. 2 Ki. 21:20
A smoke went up from his nostrils, and a devouring fire out of his mouth: coals were kindled by it. 2 Ki. 22:9
He made darkness a covering round about him: dropping waters out of the clouds of the heavens. 2 Ki. 22:12
And he brought me forth into a large place, he delivered me, because I pleased him. 2 Ki. 22:20
He teacheth my hands to war: and maketh my arms like a bow of brass. 2 Ki. 22:35
And if a man will touch them, he must be armed with iron and with the staff of a lance: but they shall be set on fire and burnt to nothing. 2 Ki. 23:7
And when the men of Israel were gone away, he stood and smote the Philistines till his hand was weary, and grew stiff with the sword: and the Lord wrought a great victory that day: and the people that were fled away, returned to take spoils of them that were slain. 2 Ki. 23:10
And after him was Semma the son of Age of Arari. And the Philistines were gathered together in a troop: for there was a field full of lentils. And when the people were fled from the face of the Philistines, 2 Ki. 23:11
He stood in the midst of the field, and defended it, and defeated the Philistines: and the Lord gave a great victory. 2 Ki. 23:12
And David was then in a hold: and there was a garrison of the Philistines then in Bethlehem. 2 Ki. 23:14
And David longed, and said: O that some man would get me a drink of the water out of the cistern, that is in Bethlehem, by the gate. 2 Ki. 23:15
And Banaias the son of Joiada a most valiant man, of great deeds, of Cabseel: he slew the two lions of Moab, and he went down, and slew a lion in the midst of a pit, in the time of snow. 2 Ki. 23:20
He also slew an Egyptian, a man worthy to be a sight, having a spear in his hand: but he went down to him with a rod, and forced the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slew him with his own spear. 2 Ki. 23:21
Heled the son of Baana, also a Netophathite, Ithai the son of Ribai of Gabaath of the children of Benjamin, 2 Ki. 23:29
Ira the Jethrite, Gareb also a Jethrite; 2 Ki. 23:38
And Joab said to the king: The Lord thy God increase thy people, and make them as many more as they are now, and again multiply them a hundredfold in the sight of my lord the king: but what meaneth my lord the king by this kind of thing? 2 Ki. 24:3
And when Gad was come to David, he told him, saying: Either seven years of famine shall come to thee in thy land: or thou shalt flee three months before thy adversaries, and they shall pursue thee: or for three days there shall be a pestilence in thy land. Now therefore deliberate, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me. 2 Ki. 24:13
And David said to Gad: I am in a great strait: but it is better that I should fall into the hands of the Lord (for his mercies are many) than into the hands of men. 2 Ki. 24:14
And the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel, from the morning unto the time appointed, and there died of the people from Dan to Bersabee seventy thousand men. 2 Ki. 24:15
And Areuna said to David: Let my lord the king take, and offer, as it seemeth good to him: thou hast here oxen for a holocaust, and the wain, and the yokes of the oxen for wood. 2 Ki. 24:22
All these things Areuna as a king gave to the king: and Areuna said to the king: The Lord thy God receive thy vow. 2 Ki. 24:23
And the king answered him, and said: Nay, but I will buy it of thee, at a price, and I will not offer to the Lord my God holocausts free cost. So David bought the floor, and the oxen, for fifty sicles of silver: 2 Ki. 24:24
His servants therefore, said to him: Let us seek for our Lord the king, a young virgin, and let her stand before the king, and cherish him, and sleep in his bosom and warm our lord the king. 3 Ki. 1:2

While he yet spoke, Jonathan, the son of Abiathar, the priest, came: and Adonias said to him: Come in, because thou art a valiant man, and bringest good news. 3 Ki. 1:42
And Solomon said: If he be a good man, there shall not so much as one hair of his head fall to the ground: but if evil be found in him, he shall die. 3 Ki. 1:52
I am going the way of all flesh: take thou courage and shew thyself a man. 3 Ki. 2:2
That the Lord may confirm his words, which he hath spoken of me, saying: If thy children shall take heed to their ways, and shall walk before me in truth, with all their heart, and with all their soul, there shall not be taken away from thee a man on the throne of Israel. 3 Ki. 2:4
Thou hast also with thee Semei, the son of Gera, the son of Jemini, of Bahurim, who cursed me with a grievous curse, when I went to the camp: but because he came down to meet me when I passed over the Jordan, and I swore to him by the Lord, saying: I will not kill thee with the sword: 3 Ki. 2:8
Do not thou hold him guiltless. But thou art a wise man, and knowest what to do with him, and thou shalt bring down his grey hairs with blood to the grave. 3 Ki. 2:9
And he added: I have a word to speak with thee. She said to him: Speak. And he said: 3 Ki. 2:14
Then Bethsabee came to king Solomon, to speak to him for Adonias: and the king arose to meet her, and bowed to her, and sat down upon his throne: and a throne was set for the king's mother, and she sat on his right hand. 3 Ki. 2:19
And now, as the Lord liveth, who hath established me, and placed me upon the throne of David, my father, and who hath made me a house, as he promised, Adonias shall be put to death this day. 3 Ki. 2:24
The king also sent, and called for Semei, and said to him: Build thee a house in Jerusalem, and dwell there: and go not out from thence any where. 3 Ki. 2:36
He went therefore to Gabaon, to sacrifice there: for that was the great high place: a thousand victims for holocausts, did Solomon offer upon that altar, in Gabaon. 3 Ki. 3:4
And the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, saying: Ask what thou wilt that I should give thee. 3 Ki. 3:5
And Solomon said: Thou hast shewed great mercy to thy servant David, my father, even as he walked before thee in truth, and justice, and an upright heart with thee: and thou hast kept thy great mercy for him, and hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day. 3 Ki. 3:6
And now, O Lord God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David, my father: and I am but a child, and know not how to go out and come in; 3 Ki. 3:7
And the word was pleasing to the Lord, that Solomon had asked such a thing. 3 Ki. 3:10
Behold I have done for thee according to thy words, and have given thee a wise and understanding heart, in so much that there hath been no one like thee before thee, nor shall arise after thee. 3 Ki. 3:12
And Solomon awaked, and perceived that it was a dream: and when he was come to Jerusalem, he stood before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and offered holocausts, and sacrificed victims of peace offerings, and made a great feast for all his servants. 3 Ki. 3:15
And one of them said: I beseech thee, my lord, I and this woman dwelt in one house, and I was delivered of a child with her in the chamber. 3 Ki. 3:17
The king therefore said: Bring me a sword. And when they had brought a sword before the king, 3 Ki. 3:24
Ten fat oxen, and twenty out of the pastures, and a hundred rams; besides venison of harts, roes, and buffles, and fatted fowls. 3 Ki. 4:23
Solomon also spoke <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 4:32">three thousand parablesa>: and his poems were a thousand and five. 3 Ki. 4:32

<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 6:0">¤a> And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel came out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of the reign of Solomon over Israel, in the month Zio, (the same is the second month) he began to build a house to the Lord. 3 Ki. 6:1
And there was a porch before the temple, of twenty cubits in length, according to the measure of the breadth of the temple: and it was ten cubits in breadth, before the face of the temple. 3 Ki. 6:3
And he built a floor over all the house, five cubits in height, and he covered the house with timber of cedar. 3 Ki. 6:10
He built also the house of the forest of Libanus; the length of it was a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty cubits, and the height thirty cubits: and four galleries between pillars of cedar: for he had cut cedar trees into pillars. 3 Ki. 7:2
And he made a porch of pillars of fifty cubits in length, and thirty cubits in breadth: and another porch before the greater porch, and pillars, and chapiters upon the pillars. 3 Ki. 7:6
And in the midst of the porch, was a small house, where he sat in judgment of the like work. He made also a house for the daughter of Pharao (whom Solomon had taken to wife) of the same work, as this porch; 3 Ki. 7:8
All of costly stones, which were sawed by a certain rule and measure, both within and without: from the foundation to the top of the walls, and without, unto the great court. 3 Ki. 7:9
The son of a widow woman, of the tribe of Nephthali, whose father was a Tyrian, an artificer in brass, and full of wisdom, and understanding, and skill to work all work in brass. And when he was come to king Solomon, he wrought all his work. 3 Ki. 7:14
And he cast two pillars in brass, each pillar was eighteen cubits high: and a line of twelve cubits compassed both the pillars. 3 Ki. 7:15
And a kind of network, and chain work wreathed together with wonderful art. Both the chapiters of the pillars were cast: seven rows of nets were on one chapiter, and seven nets on the other chapiter. 3 Ki. 7:17
He made also a molten sea, of ten cubits, from brim to brim, round all about; the height of it was five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits compassed it round about. 3 Ki. 7:23
And a graven work, under the brim of it, compassed it for ten cubits going about the sea: there were two rows cast of chamfered sculptures. 3 Ki. 7:24
And the laver was a hand breadth thick: and the brim thereof was like the brim of a cup, or the leaf of a crisped lily: it contained <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 7:26">two thousand batesa>. 3 Ki. 7:26
The mouth also of the laver within, was in the top of the chapiter: and that which appeared without, was of one cubit all round, and together it was one cubit and a half: and in the corners of the pillars were divers engravings: and the spaces between the pillars were square, not round. 3 Ki. 7:31
And the four wheels, which were at the four corners of the base, were joined one to another under the base: the height of a wheel was a cubit and a half. 3 Ki. 7:32
And they were such wheels as are used to be made in a chariot: and their axletrees, and spokes, and strakes, and naves, were all cast. 3 Ki. 7:33
And in the top of the base, there was a round compass of half a cubit, so wrought that the laver might be set thereon, having its gravings, and divers sculptures of itself. 3 Ki. 7:35
He engraved also in those plates, which were of brass, and in the corners, cherubims, and lions, and palm trees, in likeness of a man standing, so that they seemed not to be engraven, but added round about. 3 Ki. 7:36
In the plains of the Jordan, did the king cast them in a clay ground, between Socoth and Sartham. 3 Ki. 7:46

And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord, 3 Ki. 8:10
Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud. 3 Ki. 8:12
Building, I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever. 3 Ki. 8:13
Since the day that I brought my people Israel, out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel. 3 Ki. 8:16
And David, my father, would have built a house to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel: 3 Ki. 8:17
And the Lord said to David, my father: Whereas, thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind. 3 Ki. 8:18
Nevertheless, thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name. 3 Ki. 8:19
The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke. And I stand in the room of David, my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel. 3 Ki. 8:20
And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt. 3 Ki. 8:21

If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence, or corrupt air, or blasting, or locust, or mildew; if their enemy afflict them, besieging the gates, whatsoever plague, whatsoever infirmity, 3 Ki. 8:37
Whatsoever curse or imprecation shall happen to any man of thy people Israel: when a man shall know the wound of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands in this house; 3 Ki. 8:38
Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake, (for they shall hear every where of thy great name, and thy mighty hand, 3 Ki. 8:41
And he stood, and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying: 3 Ki. 8:55

I will establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel for ever, as I promised David, thy father, saying: There shall not fail a man of thy race upon the throne of Israel. 3 Ki. 9:5
I will take away Israel from the face of the land which I have given them; and the temple which I have sanctified to my name, I will cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb, and a byword among all people. 3 Ki. 9:7

And they arose out of Madian, and came into Pharan, and they took men with them from Pharan, and went into Egypt, to Pharao, the king of Egypt: who gave him a house, and appointed him victuals, and assigned him land. 3 Ki. 11:18
And he gathered men against him, and he became a captain of robbers, when David slew them of Soba: and they went to Damascus, and dwelt there, and they made him king in Damascus. 3 Ki. 11:24
Jeroboam also, the son of Nabat, an Ephrathite, of Sareda, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was named Sarua, a widow woman, lifted up his hand against the king. 3 Ki. 11:26
And Jeroboam was a valiant and mighty man: and Solomon seeing him a young man ingenious and industrious, made him chief over the tributes of all the house of Joseph. 3 Ki. 11:28
So it came to pass at that time, that Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, and the prophet Ahias, the Silonite, clad with a new garment, found him in the way: and they two were alone in the field. 3 Ki. 11:29
And to his son I will give one tribe, that there may remain a lamp for my servant, David, before me always in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen, that my name might be there. 3 Ki. 11:36
If then thou wilt hearken to all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do what is right before me, keeping my commandments and my precepts, as David, my servant, did: I will be with thee, and will build thee up a faithful house, as I built a house for David, and I will deliver Israel to thee: 3 Ki. 11:38
But Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, who was yet in Egypt, a fugitive from the face of king Solomon, hearing of his death, returned out of Egypt. 3 Ki. 12:2
Thy father laid a grievous yoke upon us: now, therefore, do thou take off a little of the grievous service of thy father, and of his most heavy yoke, which he put upon us, and we will serve thee. 3 Ki. 12:4
And now my father put a heavy yoke upon you, but I will add to your yoke: my father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions. 3 Ki. 12:11
And Roboam came to Jerusalem, and gathered together all the house of Juda, and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred fourscore thousand chosen men for war, to fight against the house of Israel, and to bring the kingdom again under Roboam, the son of Solomon. 3 Ki. 12:21
And finding out a device, he made two <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 12:28">golden calvesa>, and said to them: Go ye up no more to Jerusalem: Behold thy gods, O Israel, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt. 3 Ki. 12:28
And he appointed a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, after the manner of the feast that was celebrated in Juda. And going up to the altar, he did in like manner in Bethel, to sacrifice to the calves, which he had made: and he placed in Bethel priests of the high places, which he had made. 3 Ki. 12:32
And he went up to the altar, which he had built in Bethel, on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, which he had devised of his own heart: and he ordained a feast to the children of Israel, and went up on the altar to burn incense. 3 Ki. 12:33
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 13:0">¤a> And behold there came a man of God out of Juda, by the word of the Lord, to Bethel, when Jeroboam was standing upon the altar, and burning incense. 3 Ki. 13:1
And he cried out against the altar in the word of the Lord, and said: O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord: Behold a child shall be born to the house of David, Josias by name, and he shall immolate upon thee the priests of the high places, who now burn incense upon thee, and he shall burn men's bones upon thee. 3 Ki. 13:2
And he gave a sign the same day, saying: This shall be the sign, that the Lord hath spoken: Behold the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it, shall be poured out. 3 Ki. 13:3
Now a certain old prophet dwelt in Bethel, and his sons came to him, and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: and they told their father the words which he had spoken to the king. 3 Ki. 13:11
And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under a turpentine tree: and he said to him: Art thou the man of God that camest from Juda? He answered: I am. 3 Ki. 13:14
He said to him: I also am a prophet like unto thee: and <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 13:18">an angel spoke to mea>, in the word of the Lord, saying: Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread, and drink water. He deceived him, 3 Ki. 13:18
And when he was gone, a lion found him in the way, and <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 13:24">killed hima>, and his body was cast in the way: and the ass stood by him, and the lion stood by the dead body. 3 Ki. 13:24
After these words, Jeroboam came not back from his wicked way: but on the contrary, he made of the meanest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he filled his hand, and he was made a priest of the high places. 3 Ki. 13:33
Take also with thee ten loaves, and cracknels, and a pot of honey, and go to him: for he will tell thee what shall become of this child. 3 Ki. 14:3
And all Israel shall mourn for him, and shall bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall be laid in a sepulchre, because in his regard there is found a good word from the Lord, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam. 3 Ki. 14:13
And the Lord hath appointed himself a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam in this day, and in this time: 3 Ki. 14:14
And the Lord God shall strike Israel as a reed is shaken in the water: and he shall root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the river: because they have made to themselves groves, to provoke the Lord. 3 Ki. 14:15
But for David's sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem: 3 Ki. 15:4
There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: therefore I have sent thee presents of silver and gold: and I desire thee to come, and break thy league with Baasa, king of Israel, that he may depart from me. 3 Ki. 15:19
And Baasa, the son of Ahias, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him, and slew him in Gebbethon, which is a city of the Philistines: for Nadab and all Israel besieged Gebbethon. 3 Ki. 15:27
And when he was king, and sat upon his throne, he slew all the house of Baasa, and he left not one thereof to piss against a wall and all his kinsfolks and friends. 3 Ki. 16:11
In the seven and twentieth year of Asa, king of Juda, Zambri reigned seven days in Thersa: now the army was besieging Gebbethon, a city of the Philistines. 3 Ki. 16:15
And he planted a grove: and Achab did more to provoke the Lord, the God of Israel, than all the kings of Israel that were before him. 3 Ki. 16:33
Arise, and go to <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 17:9">Sarephta of the Sidoniansa>, and dwell there: for I have commanded a widow woman there to feed thee. 3 Ki. 17:9
He arose, and went to Sarephta. And when he was come to the gate of the city, he saw the widow woman gathering sticks, and he called her, and said to her: Give me a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. 3 Ki. 17:10
And when she was going to fetch it, he called after her, saying: Bring me also, I beseech thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand. 3 Ki. 17:11
And she answered: As the Lord thy God liveth, I have no bread, but only a handful of meal in a pot, and a little oil in a cruise: behold I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it, for me and my son, that we may eat it and die. 3 Ki. 17:12
And Elias said to her: Fear not; but go, and do as thou hast said but first make for me of the same meal a little hearth cake, and bring it to me, and after make for thyself and thy son. 3 Ki. 17:13
And he cried to the Lord, and said: O Lord, my God, hast thou afflicted also the widow, with whom I am after a sort maintained, so as to kill her son? 3 Ki. 17:20
And the woman said to Elias: Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and the word of the Lord in thy mouth is true. 3 Ki. 17:24
And Elias went to shew himself to Achab, and there was a grievous famine in Samaria. 3 Ki. 18:2
For when Jezabel killed the prophets of the Lord, he took a hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty and fifty in caves, and fed them with bread and water. 3 Ki. 18:4
And when I am gone from thee, the Spirit of the Lord will carry thee into a place that I know not: and I shall go in and tell Achab; and he, not finding thee, will kill me: but thy servant feareth the Lord from his infancy. 3 Ki. 18:12
Hath it not been told thee, my lord, what I did when Jezabel killed the prophets of the Lord; how I hid a hundred men of the prophets of the Lord, by fifty and fifty in caves, and fed them with bread and water? 3 Ki. 18:13
And Elias coming to all the people, said: How long do you halt between two sides? If the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people did not answer him a word. 3 Ki. 18:21
And Elias said again to the people: I only remain a prophet of the Lord: but the prophets of Baal are four hundred and fifty men. 3 Ki. 18:22
Call ye on the names of your gods, and I will call on the name of my Lord: and the God that shall answer by fire, let him be God. And all the people answering, said: A very good proposal. 3 Ki. 18:24
And when it was now noon, Elias jested at them, saying: Cry with a louder voice: for he is a god; and perhaps he is talking, or is in an inn, or on a journey; or perhaps he is asleep, and must be awaked. 3 Ki. 18:27
So they cried with a loud voice, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till they were all covered with blood. 3 Ki. 18:28
And he built with the stones an altar to the name of the Lord: and he made a trench for water, of the breadth of two furrows, round about the altar. 3 Ki. 18:32
And Elias said to Achab: Go up, eat and drink: for there is a sound of abundance of rain. 3 Ki. 18:41
And at the seventh time: Behold a little cloud arose out of the sea like a man's foot. And he said: Go up, and say to Achab: Prepare thy chariot, and go down, lest the rain prevent thee. 3 Ki. 18:44
And while he turned himself this way and that way, behold the heavens grew dark, with clouds and wind, and there fell a great rain. And Achab getting up, went away to Jezrahel: 3 Ki. 18:45
And Jezabel sent a messenger to Elias, saying: Such and such things may the gods do to me, and add still more, if by this hour to morrow I make not thy life as the life of one of them. 3 Ki. 19:2
Then Elias was afraid, and rising up, he went whithersoever he had a mind: and he came to Bersabee of Juda, and left his servant there, 3 Ki. 19:3
And he went forward, one day's journey into the desert. And when he was there, and sat under a juniper tree, he requested for his soul <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 19:4">that he might diea>, and said: It is enough for me, Lord; take away my soul: for I am no better than my fathers. 3 Ki. 19:4
He looked, and behold there was at his head a hearth cake, and a vessel of water: and he ate and drank, and he fell asleep again. 3 Ki. 19:6
And the angel of the Lord came again the second time, and touched him, and said to him: Arise, eat: for thou hast yet a great way to go. 3 Ki. 19:7
And when he was come thither, he abode in a cave, and behold the word of the Lord came unto him, and he said to him: What dost thou here, Elias? 3 Ki. 19:9
And he said to him: Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord: and behold the Lord passeth, and a great and strong wind before the Lord, overthrowing the mountains, and breaking the rocks in pieces: but the Lord is not in the wind. And after the wind, an earthquake: but the Lord is not in the earthquake. 3 Ki. 19:11
And after the earthquake, a fire: but the Lord is not in the fire. And after the fire, a whistling of a gentle air. 3 Ki. 19:12
And when Elias heard it, he covered his face with his mantle, and coming forth, stood in the entering in of the cave, and behold a voice unto him, saying: What dost thou here, Elias? And he answered: 3 Ki. 19:13
And returning back from him, he took a yoke of oxen, and killed them, and boiled the flesh with the plough of the oxen, and gave to the people, and they ate: and rising up, he went away, and followed Elias, and ministered to him. 3 Ki. 19:21
And behold a prophet coming to Achab, king of Israel, said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Hast thou seen all this exceeding great multitude? behold I will deliver them into thy hand this day: that thou mayst know that I am the Lord. 3 Ki. 20:13
But the king of Israel going out overthrew the horses and chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter. 3 Ki. 20:21
(And a prophet coming to the king of Israel, said to him: Go, and strengthen thyself, and know, and see what thou dost: for the next year the king of Syria will come up against thee.) 3 Ki. 20:22
(And a man of God coming, said to the king of Israel: Thus saith the Lord: Because the Syrians have said: The Lord is God of the hills, but is not God of the valleys: I will deliver all this great multitude into thy hand, and you shall know that I am the Lord.) 3 Ki. 20:28
And both sides set their armies in array one against the other seven days, and on the seventh day the battle was fought: and the children of Israel slew, of the Syrians, a hundred thousand footmen in one day. 3 Ki. 20:29
And they that remained fled to Aphec, into the city: and the wall fell upon seven and twenty thousand men, that were left. And Benadad fleeing, went into the city, into a chamber that was within a chamber. 3 Ki. 20:30
The men took this for a sign: and in haste caught the word out of his mouth, and said: Thy brother Benadad. And he said to them: Go, and bring him to me. Then Benadad came out to him, and he lifted him up into his chariot. 3 Ki. 20:33
And he said to him: The cities which my father took from thy father, I will restore: and do thou make thee streets in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria and having made a league, I will depart from thee. So he made a league with him, and let him go. 3 Ki. 20:34
Then a certain man of the sons of the prophets, said to his companion, in the word of the Lord: Strike me. But he would not strike. 3 Ki. 20:35
Then he said to him: Because thou wouldst not hearken to the word of the Lord, behold thou shalt depart from me, and a lion shall slay thee. And when he was gone a little from him, a lion found him, and slew him. 3 Ki. 20:36
And as the king passed by, he cried to the king, and said: Thy servant went out to fight hand to hand: and when a certain man was run away, one brought him to me, and said: Keep this man: and if he shall slip away, thy life shall be for his life, or thou shalt pay a talent of silver. 3 Ki. 20:39
And whilst I, in a hurry, turned this way and that, on a sudden he was not to be seen. And the king of Israel said to him: This is thy judgment, which thyself hast decreed. 3 Ki. 20:40
And he said to him: Thus saith the Lord. Because thou hast let go out of thy hand a man worthy of death, thy life shall be for his life, and thy people for his people. 3 Ki. 20:42
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 21:0">¤a> And after these things, Naboth the Jezrahelite, who was in Jezrahel, had at that time a vineyard, near the palace of Achab, king of Samaria. 3 Ki. 21:1
And Achab spoke to Naboth, saying: Give me thy vineyard, that I may make me a garden of herbs, because it is nigh, and adjoining to my house; and I will give thee for it a better vineyard: or if thou think it more convenient for thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money. 3 Ki. 21:2
And he answered her: I spoke to Naboth, the Jezrahelite, and said to him: Give me thy vineyard, and take money for it: or if it please thee, I will give thee a better vineyard for it. And he said: I will not give thee my vineyard. 3 Ki. 21:6
And this was the tenor of the letters: Proclaim a fast, and make Naboth sit among the chief of the people; 3 Ki. 21:9
They proclaimed a fast, and made Naboth sit among the chief of the people. 3 Ki. 21:12
And the king of Israel, and Josaphat, king of Juda, sat each on his throne, clothed with royal robes, in a court, by the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets prophesied before them. 3 Ki. 22:10
And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means? 3 Ki. 22:21
And he said: I will go forth, and be a lying spirit, in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive him, and shalt prevail: <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 22:22">go forth, and do soa>. 3 Ki. 22:22
Now, therefore, behold the Lord hath given a lying spirit in the mouth of all thy prophets that are here, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee. 3 Ki. 22:23
And Micheas said: Thou shalt see in the day when thou shalt <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1ki 22:25">go into a chambera> within a chamber to hide thyself. 3 Ki. 22:25
So when the captains of the chariots saw Josaphat, they suspected that he was the king of Israel, and making a violent assault, they fought against him: and Josaphat cried out. 3 Ki. 22:32
And a certain man bent his bow, shooting at a venture, and chanced to strike the king of Israel, between the lungs and the stomach. But he said to the driver of his chariot: Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the army, for I am grievously wounded. 3 Ki. 22:34
And an angel of the Lord spoke to Elias, the Thesbite, saying: Arise, and go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them: Is there not a God in Israel, that ye go to consult Beelzebub, the god of Accaron? 4 Ki. 1:3
But they answered him: A man met us, and said to us: Go, and return to the king, that sent you, and you shall say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel, that thou sendest to Beelzebub, the god of Accaron? Therefore thou shalt not come down from the bed, on which thou art gone up, but thou shalt surely die. 4 Ki. 1:6
But they said: A hairy man, with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said: It is Elias, the Thesbite. 4 Ki. 1:8
And he sent to him a captain of fifty, and the fifty men that were under him. And he went up to him, and as he was sitting on the top of a hill, he said to him: Man of God, the king hath commanded that thou come down. 4 Ki. 1:9
And Elias answering, said to the captain of fifty: If I be a man of God, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2ki 1:10">let firea> come down from heaven and consume thee, and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven and consumed him, and the fifty that were with him. 4 Ki. 1:10
Elias answering, said: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee, and thy fifty. And fire came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty. 4 Ki. 1:12
Again he sent a third captain of fifty men, and the fifty that were with him. And when he was come, he fell upon his knees before Elias, and besought him, and said: Man of God, despise not my life, and the lives of thy servants that are with me. 4 Ki. 1:13
And said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast sent messengers to consult Beelzebub, the god of Accaron, as though there were not a God in Israel, of whom thou mightest inquire the word; therefore, from the bed on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die. 4 Ki. 1:16
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2ki 2:0">¤a> And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elias, into <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2ki 2:1">heavena>, by a whirlwind, that Elias and Eliseus were going from Galgal. 4 Ki. 2:1
And fifty men, of the sons of the prophets, followed them, and stood in sight, at a distance: but they two stood by the Jordan. 4 Ki. 2:7
And he answered: Thou hast asked a hard thing; nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, thou shalt have what thou hast asked: but if thou see me not, thou shalt not have it. 4 Ki. 2:10
And as they went on, walking and talking together, behold, a fiery chariot and fiery horses parted them both asunder: and Elias went up by a whirlwind into heaven. 4 Ki. 2:11
And he said: Bring me a new vessel, and put salt into it. And when they had brought it, 4 Ki. 2:20
Now Mesa, king of Moab, nourished many sheep, and he paid to the king of Israel a hundred thousand lambs, and a hundred thousand rams, with their fleeces. 4 Ki. 3:4
So the king of Israel, and the king of Juda, and the king of Edom, went, and they fetched a compass of seven days' journey, and there was no water for the army, and for the beasts, that followed them. 4 Ki. 3:9
And Josaphat said: Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may beseech the Lord by him? And one of the servants of the king of Israel answered: Here is Eliseus, the son of Saphat, who poured water on the hands of Elias. 4 Ki. 3:11
But now bring me hither a minstrel. And when the minstrel played, the hand of the Lord came upon him, and he said: 4 Ki. 3:15
And this is a small thing in the sight of the Lord: moreover, he will deliver, also, Moab into your hands. 4 Ki. 3:18
And all the Moabites hearing that the kings were come up to fight against them, gathered together all that were girded with a belt upon them, and stood in the borders. 4 Ki. 3:21
And they destroyed the cities: And they filled every goodly field, every man casting his stone: and they stopt up all the springs of waters: and cut down all the trees that bore fruit, so that <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2ki 3:25">brick walls only remaineda>: and the city was beset by the slingers, and a great part thereof destroyed. 4 Ki. 3:25
Then he took his eldest son, that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall: and there was great indignation in Israel, and presently they departed from him, and returned into their own country. 4 Ki. 3:27
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2ki 4:0">¤a> Now a certain woman of the wives of the prophets, cried to Eliseus, saying: Thy servant, my husband, is dead, and thou knowest that thy servant was one that feared God, and behold the creditor is come to take away my two sons to serve him. 4 Ki. 4:1
And Eliseus said to her: What wilt thou have me do for thee? Tell me, what hast thou in thy house? And she answered: I, thy handmaid, have nothing in my house but a little oil, to anoint me. 4 Ki. 4:2
And he said to her: Go, borrow of all thy neighbours empty vessels, not a few. 4 Ki. 4:3
And when the vessels were full, she said to her son: Bring me yet a vessel. And he answered: I have no more. And the oil stood. 4 Ki. 4:6
And there was a day when Eliseus passed by Sunam: now there was a great woman there, who detained him to eat bread: and as he passed often that way, he turned into her house to eat bread. 4 Ki. 4:8
And she said to her husband: I perceive that this is a holy man of God, who often passeth by us. 4 Ki. 4:9
Let us, therefore, make him a little chamber, and put a little bed in it for him, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick, that when he cometh to us he may abide there. 4 Ki. 4:10
Now, there was a certain day, when he came, and turned into the chamber, and rested there. 4 Ki. 4:11
He said to her: At this time, and this same hour, if life be in company, thou shalt have a son in thy womb. But she answered: Do not, I beseech thee, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie to thy handmaid. 4 Ki. 4:16
And the woman conceived, and brought forth a son in the time, and at the same hour that Eliseus had said. 4 Ki. 4:17
And the child grew. And on a certain day, when he went out to his father to the reapers, 4 Ki. 4:18
And she said to him: Did I ask a son of my lord? did I not say to thee: Do not deceive me? 4 Ki. 4:28
And Eliseus returned to Galgal, and there was a famine in the land, and the sons of the prophets dwelt before him: And he said to one of his servants: Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets. 4 Ki. 4:38
And one went out into the field to gather wild herbs: and he found something like a wild vine, and gathered of it <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2ki 4:39">wild gourds of the fielda>, and filled his mantle, and coming back, he shred them into the pot of pottage; for he knew not what it was. 4 Ki. 4:39
And a certain man came from Baalsalisa, bringing to the man of God, bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and new corn in his scrip. And he said: Give to the people, that they may eat. 4 Ki. 4:42
And his servant answered him: How much is this, that I should set it before a hundred men? He said again: Give to the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the Lord: They shall eat, and there shall be left. 4 Ki. 4:43
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2ki 5:0">¤a> Naaman, general of the army, of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable: for by him the Lord gave deliverance to Syria: and he was a valiant man, and rich, but a leper. 4 Ki. 5:1
Now there had gone out robbers from Syria, and had led away captive out of the land of Israel, a little maid, and she waited upon Naaman's wife. 4 Ki. 5:2
And the king of Syria said to him: Go; and I will send a letter to the king of Israel. And he departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of raiment; 4 Ki. 5:5
And when the king of Israel had read the letter, he rent his garments, and said: Am I God, to be able to kill and give life, that this man hath sent to me to heal a man of his leprosy? mark, and see how he seeketh occasions against me. 4 Ki. 5:7
And when Eliseus, the man of God, had heard this, to wit, that the king of Israel had rent his garments, he sent to him, saying: Why hast thou rent thy garments? let him come to me, and let him know that there is a prophet in Israel. 4 Ki. 5:8
And Eliseus sent a messenger to him, saying: Go, and wash seven times in the Jordan, and thy flesh shall recover health, and thou shalt be clean. 4 Ki. 5:10
Then he went down, and washed in the Jordan seven times, according to the word of the man of God; and his flesh was restored, like the flesh of a little child: and he was made clean. 4 Ki. 5:14
And returning to the man of God, with all his train, he came, and stood before him, and said: In truth, I know there is no other God, in all the earth, but only in Israel: I beseech thee, therefore, take <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2ki 5:15">a blessinga> of thy servant. 4 Ki. 5:15
And he said: Well: my master hath sent me to thee, saying: Just now there are come to me from mount Ephraim, two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them a talent of silver, and two changes of garments. 4 Ki. 5:22
But the leprosy of Naaman, shall also stick to thee, and to thy seed for ever. And he went out from him a leper, as white as snow. 4 Ki. 5:27
Let us go as far as the Jordan, and take out of the wood every man a piece of timber, that we may build us there a place to dwell in. And he said: Go. 4 Ki. 6:2
And the man of God said: Where did it fall? and he shewed him the place: Then he cut off a piece of wood, and cast it in thither: and the iron swam. 4 Ki. 6:6

And they hardened their necks, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ne 9:17">and gave the heada> to return to their bondage, as it were by contention. But thou, a forgiving God, gracious, and merciful, longsuffering, and full of compassion, didst not forsake them. 2 Esd. 9:17

And thou didst admonish them to return to thy law. But they dealt proudly, and hearkened not to thy commandments, but sinned against thy judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them: and they withdrew the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear. 2 Esd. 9:29
Yet in thy very many mercies thou didst not utterly consume them, nor forsake them: because thou art a merciful and gracious God. 2 Esd. 9:31

Did not Solomon king of Israel sin in this kind of thing: and surely among many nations, there was not a king like him, and he was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: and yet women of other countries brought even him to sin. 2 Esd. 13:26
These and such like things did he observe when but a boy according to the law of God. Tob. 1:8

Because she had been given to seven husbands and a devil named Asmodeus had killed them, at their first going in unto her. Tob. 3:8

But a husband I consented to take, with thy fear, not with my lust. Tob. 3:18
For thou art not delighted in our being lost, because after a storm thou makest a calm, and after tears and weeping thou pourest in joyfulness. Tob. 3:22

And the third night thou shalt obtain a blessing that sound children may be born of you. Tob. 6:21

<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 0:0">‡a> <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 1:0">¤a> Now <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 1:1">Arphaxada> king of the Medes had brought many nations under his dominions, and he built a very strong city, which he called Ecbatana, Jud. 1:1
Of stones squared and hewed: he made the walls thereof seventy cubits broad, and thirty cubits high, and the towers thereof he made a hundred cubits high. But on the square of them, each side was extended the space of twenty feet. Jud. 1:2
And he gloried as a mighty one in the force of his army and in the glory of his chariots. Jud. 1:4
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 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 Eliachim the priest wrote to all that were over against Esdrelon, which faceth the great plain near Dothain, and to all by whom there might be a passage of way, that they should take possession of the ascents of the mountains, by which there might be any way to Jerusalem, and should keep watch where the way was narrow between the mountains. Jud. 4:5
And they cried to the Lord the God of Israel with one accord, that their children might not be made a prey, and their wives carried off, and their cities destroyed, and their holy things profaned, and that they might not be made a reproach to the Gentiles. Jud. 4:9
Then Achior captain of all the children of Ammon answering, said; If thou vouchsafe, my lord, to hear, I will tell the truth in thy sight concerning this people, that dwelleth in the mountains, and there shall not a false word come out of my mouth. Jud. 5:5
They worshipped one God of heaven, who also commanded them to depart from thence, and to dwell in Charan. And when there was a famine over all the land, they went down into Egypt, and there for four hundred years were so multiplied, that the army of them could not be numbered. Jud. 5:9
And when the Egyptians had cast them out from them, and the plague had ceased from them, and they had a mind to take them again, and bring them back to their service, Jud. 5:11
The God of heaven opened the sea to them in their flight, so that the waters were made to stand firm as a wall on either side, and they walked through the bottom of the sea and passed it dry foot. Jud. 5:12
And even some years ago when they had revolted from the way which God had given them to walk therein, they were destroyed in battles by many nations and very many of them were led away captive into a strange land. Jud. 5:22
But if there be no offence of this people in the sight of their God, we cannot resist them because their God will defend them: and we shall be a reproach to the whole earth. Jud. 5:25
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
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 6:0">¤a> And it came to pass when they had left off speaking, that Holofernes being in a violent passion, said to Achior: Jud. 6:1
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
Then Ozias, after the assembly was broken up, received him into his house, and made him a great supper. Jud. 6:19
Now there were in his troops a hundred and twenty thousand footmen, and two and twenty thousand horsemen, besides the preparations of those men who had been taken, and who had been brought away out of the provinces and cities of all the youth. Jud. 7:2
And taking their arms of war, they posted themselves at the places, which by a narrow pathway lead directly between the mountains, and they guarded them all day and night. Jud. 7:5
Nevertheless there were springs not far from the walls, out of which they were seen secretly to draw water, to refresh themselves a little rather than to drink their fill. Jud. 7:7
And these words pleased Holofernes, and his officers, and he placed all round about a hundred men at every spring. Jud. 7:10
For it is better, that being captives we should live and bless the Lord, than that we should die, and be a reproach to all flesh, after we have seen our wives and our infants die before our eyes. Jud. 7:16
Have thou mercy on us, because thou art good, or punish our iniquities by chastising us thyself, and deliver not them that trust in thee to a people that knoweth not thee, Jud. 7:20

<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 8:0">¤a> Now it came to pass, when Judith a widow had heard these words, who was the daughter of Merari, the son of Idox, the son of Joseph, the son of Ozias, the son of Elai, the son of Jamnor, the son of Gedeon, the son of Raphaim, the son of Achitob, the son of Melchias, the son of Enan, the son of Nathanias, the son of Salathiel, the son of <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 8:1">Simeon, the son of Rubena>: Jud. 8:1
And Judith his relict was a widow now three years and six months. Jud. 8:4
And she made herself a private chamber in the upper part of her house, in which she abode shut up with her maids. Jud. 8:5
This is not a word that may draw down mercy, but rather that may stir up wrath, and enkindle indignation. Jud. 8:12

Now therefore pray for us, for thou art a holy woman, and one fearing God. Jud. 8:29
O Lord God of my father Simeon, who <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 9:2">gavest him a sworda> to execute vengeance against strangers, who had defiled by their uncleanness, and uncovered the virgin unto confusion: Jud. 9:2
And who gavest their wives to be made a prey, and their daughters into captivity: and all their spoils to be divided to the servants, who were zealous with thy zeal: assist, I beseech thee, O Lord God, me a widow. Jud. 9:3
Look upon the camp of the Assyrians now, as thou wast pleased to look upon the camp of the Egyptians, when they pursued armed after thy servants, trusting in their chariots, and in their horsemen, and in a multitude of warriors. Jud. 9:6
For this will be a glorious monument for thy name, when he shall fall by the hand of a woman. Jud. 9:15
For thy power, O Lord, is not in a multitude, nor is thy pleasure in the strength of horses, nor from the beginning have the proud been acceptable to thee: but the prayer of the humble and the meek hath always pleased thee. Jud. 9:16
O God of the heavens, creator of the waters, and Lord of the whole creation, hear me a poor wretch, making supplication to thee, and presuming of thy mercy. Jud. 9:17
And she washed her body, and anointed herself with the best ointment, and plaited the hair of her head, and put a bonnet upon her head, and clothed herself with the garments of her gladness, and put sandals on her feet, and took her bracelets, and lilies, and earlets, and rings, and adorned herself with all her ornaments. Jud. 10:3
And she gave to her maid a bottle of wine to carry, and a vessel of oil, and parched corn, and dry figs, and bread and cheese, and went out. Jud. 10:5
And she answered: I am a daughter of the Hebrews, and I am fled from them, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 10:12">because I knewa> they would be made a prey to you, because they despised you, and would not of their own accord yield themselves, that they might find mercy in your sight. Jud. 10:12
And Judith seeing Holofernes sitting under a canopy, which was woven of purple and gold, with emeralds and precious stones: Jud. 10:19
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xju 11:0">¤a> Then Holofernes said to her: Be of good comfort, and fear not in thy heart: for I have never hurt a man that was willing to serve Nabuchodonosor the king. Jud. 11:1
And 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
Moreover also a famine hath come upon them, and for drought of water they are already to be counted among the dead. Jud. 11:10
And they have a design even to kill their cattle, and to drink the blood of them. Jud. 11:11
And she went out in the nights into the valley of Bethulia, and washed herself in a fountain of water. Jud. 12:7
And it came to pass on the fourth day, that Holofernes made a supper for his servants, and said to Vagao his eunuch: Go, and persuade that Hebrew woman, to consent of her own accord to dwell with me. Jud. 12:10
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
Saying: Strengthen me, O Lord God of Israel, and in this hour look on the works of my hands, that as thou hast promised, thou mayst raise up Jerusalem thy city: and that I may bring to pass that which I have purposed, having a belief that it might be done by thee. Jud. 13:7
And after a while she went out, and delivered the head of Holofernes to her maid, and bade her put it into her wallet. Jud. 13:11
And lighting up lights they all gathered round about her: and she went up to a higher place, and commanded silence to be made. And when all had held their peace, Jud. 13:16
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
And that thou mayst find that it is so, behold the head of Holofernes, who in the contempt of his pride despised the God of Israel: and threatened them with death, saying: When the people of Israel shall be taken, I will command thy sides to be pierced with a sword. Jud. 13:28
Then Achior seeing the head of Holofernes, being seized with a great fear he fell on his face upon the earth, and his soul swooned away. Jud. 13:29
And immediately at break of day, they hung up the head of Holofernes upon the walls, and every man took his arms, and they went out with a great noise and shouting. Jud. 14:7
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
Then Vagao going into his chamber, stood before the curtain, and made a clapping with his hands: for he thought that he was sleeping with Judith. Jud. 14:13
But when with hearkening, he perceived no motion of one lying, he came near to the curtain, and lifting it up, and seeing the body of Holofernes, lying upon the ground, without the head, weltering in his blood, he cried out with a loud voice, with weeping, and rent his garments. Jud. 14:14
And there was a very great cry in the midst of their camp. Jud. 14:18
Begin ye to the Lord with timbrels, sing ye to the Lord with cymbals, tune unto him a new psalm, extol and call upon his name. Jud. 16:2
He bragged that he would set my borders on fire, and kill my young men with the sword, to make my infants a prey, and my virgins captives. Jud. 16:6
But the almighty Lord hath struck him, and hath delivered him into the hands of a woman, and hath slain him. Jud. 16:7
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
Her sandals ravished his eyes, her beauty made his soul her captive, with a sword she cut off his head. Jud. 16:11
Let us sing a hymn to the Lord, let us sing a new hymn to our God. Jud. 16:15
And she abode in her husband's house a hundred and five years, and made her handmaid free, and she died, and was buried with her husband in Bethulia. Jud. 16:28
A Jew who dwelt in the city of Susan, a great man and among the first of the king's court, had a dream. Esther 11:3
And this was his dream: Behold there were voices, and tumults, and thunders, and earthquakes, and a disturbance upon the earth. Esther 11:5
And that was a day of darkness and danger, of tribulation and distress, and great fear upon the earth. Esther 11:8
And they cried to God: and as they were crying, a little fountain grew into a very great river, and abounded into many waters. Esther 11:10
But the king made a record of what was done: and Mardochai also committed the memory of the thing to writing. Esther 12:4
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=es 1:0">¤a> In the days of Assuerus, who reigned from India to Ethiopia over a hundred and twenty seven provinces: Esther 1:1
Now in the third year of his reign he made a great feast for all the princes, and for his servants, for the most mighty of the Persians, and the nobles of the Medes, and the governors of the provinces in his sight, Esther 1:3
That he might shew the riches of the glory of his kingdom, and the greatness, and boasting of his power, for a long time, to wit, for a hundred and fourscore days. Esther 1:4
And when the days of the feast were expired, he invited all the people that were found in Susan, from the greatest to the least: and commanded a feast to be made seven days in the court of the garden, and of the wood, which was planted by the care and the hand of the king. Esther 1:5
And there were hung up on every side sky coloured, and green, and violet hangings, fastened with cords of silk, and of purple, which were put into rings of ivory, and were held up with marble pillars. The beds also were of gold and silver, placed in order upon a floor paved with porphyry and white marble: which was embellished with painting of wonderful variety. Esther 1:6
And they that were invited, drank in golden cups, and the meats were brought in divers vessels one after another. Wine also in abundance and of the best was presented, as was worthy of a king's magnificence. Esther 1:7
Also Vasthi the queen made a feast for the women in the palace, where king Assuerus was used to dwell. Esther 1:9
But she refused, and would not come at the king's commandment, which he had signified to her by the eunuchs. Whereupon the king, being angry, and inflamed with a very great fury, Esther 1:12
There was a man in the city of Susan, a Jew, named Mardochai, the son of Jair, the son of Semei, the son of Cis, of the race of Jemini, Esther 2:5
And he walked every day before the court of the house, in which the chosen virgins were kept, having a care for Esther's welfare, and desiring to know what would befall her. Esther 2:11
And as the time came orderly about, the day was at hand, when Esther, the daughter of Abihail the brother of Mardochai, whom he had adopted for his daughter, was to go in to the king. But she sought not women's ornaments, but whatsoever Egeus the eunuch the keeper of the virgins had a mind, he gave her to adorn her. For she was exceeding fair, and her incredible beauty made her appear agreeable and amiable in the eyes of all. Esther 2:15
And he commanded a magnificent feast to be prepared for all the princes, and for his servants, for the marriage and wedding of Esther, And he gave rest to all the provinces, and bestowed gifts according to princely magnificence. Esther 2:18
Neither had Esther as yet declared her country and people, according to his commandment. For whatsoever he commanded, Esther observed: and she did all things in the same manner as she was wont at that time when he brought her up a little one. Esther 2:20
It was inquired into, and found out: and they were both hanged on a gibbet. And it was put in the histories, and recorded in the chronicles before the king. Esther 2:23
And when they were saying this often, and he would not hearken to them, they told Aman, desirous to know whether he would continue in his resolution: for he had told them that he was a Jew. Esther 3:4
And Aman said to king Assuerus: There is a people scattered through all the provinces of thy kingdom, and separated one from another, that use new laws and ceremonies, and moreover despise the king's ordinances: and thou knowest very well that it is not expedient for thy kingdom that they should grow insolent by impunity. Esther 3:8
Were sent by the king's messengers to all provinces, to kill and destroy all the Jews, both young and old, little children, and women, in one day, that is, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month, which is called Adar, and to make a spoil of their goods. Esther 3:13

We have commanded that all whom Aman shall mark out, who is chief over all the provinces, and second after the king, and whom we honour as a father, shall be utterly destroyed by their enemies, with their wives and children, and that none shall have pity on them, on the fourteenth day of the twelfth month Adar of this present year: Esther 13:6
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=es 4:0">¤a> Now when Mardochai had heard these things, he rent his garments, and put on sackcloth, strewing ashes on his head and he cried with a loud voice in the street in the midst of the city, shewing the anguish of his mind. Esther 4:1

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

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
Then the king's scribes and secretaries were called for (now it was the time of the third month which is called Siban) the three and twentieth day of the month, and letters were written, as Mardochai had a mind, to the Jews, and to the governors, and to the deputies, and to the judges, who were rulers over the hundred and twenty-seven provinces, from India even to Ethiopia: to province and province, to people and people, according to their languages and characters, and to the Jews, according as they could read and hear.

Now that you may more plainly understand what we say, Aman the son of Amadathi, a Macedonian both in mind and country, and having nothing of the Persian blood, but with his cruelty staining our goodness, was received being a stranger by us: Esther 16:10

Now on a certain day, when <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=job 1:6">the sons of Goda> came to stand before the Lord, Satan also was present among them. Job 1:6

And Satan answered, and said: Skin for skin; and all that a man hath, he will give for his life: Job 2:4
So Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord, and struck Job with a very grievous ulcer, from the sole of the foot even to the top of his head: Job 2:7
And he took a potsherd and scraped the corrupt matter, sitting on a dunghill. Job 2:8

A soul that is full shall tread upon the honeycomb: and a soul that is hungry shall take even bitter for sweet. Pr. 27:7
As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that leaveth his place. Pr. 27:8
Ointment and perfumes rejoice the heart: and the good counsels of a friend are sweet to the soul. Pr. 27:9

Take away his garment that hath been surety for a stranger: and take from him a pledge for strangers. Pr. 27:13
He that blesseth his neighbour with a loud voice, rising in the night, shall be like to him that curseth. Pr. 27:14

For the sins of the land many are the princes thereof: and for the wisdom of a man, and the knowledge of those things that are said, the life of the prince shall be prolonged. Pr. 28:2
A poor man that oppresseth the poor, is like a violent shower, which bringeth a famine. Pr. 28:3

He that deceiveth the just in a wicked way, shall fall in his own destruction: and the upright shall possess his goods. Pr. 28:10

A faithful man shall be much praised: but he that maketh haste to be rich, shall not be innocent. Pr. 28:20
He that hath respect to a person in judgment, doth not well: such a man even for a morsel of bread forsaketh the truth. Pr. 28:21
A man that maketh haste to be rich, and envieth others, is ignorant that poverty shall come upon him. Pr. 28:22
He that rebuketh a man, shall afterward find favour with him, more than he that by a flattering tongue deceiveth him. Pr. 28:23

He that trusteth in his own heart, is a fool: but he that walketh wisely, he shall be saved. Pr. 28:26
The man that with a stiff neck despiseth him that reproveth him, shall suddenly be destroyed: and health shall not follow him. Pr. 29:1

A slave will not be corrected by words: because he understandeth what thou sayest, and will not answer. Pr. 29:19
Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment. Pr. 29:20
A passionate man provoketh quarrels: and he that is easily stirred up to wrath, shall be more prone to sin. Pr. 29:22
He that is partaker with a thief, hateth his own soul: he heareth one putting him to his oath, and discovereth not. Pr. 29:24
The just abhor a wicked man: and the wicked loathe them that are in the right way. The son that keepeth the word, shall be free from destruction. Pr. 29:27
Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? who hath held the wind in his hands? who hath bound up the waters together as in a garment? who hath raised up all the borders of the earth? what is his name, and what is the name of his son, if thou knowest? Pr. 30:4
Every word of God <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=pr 30:5">is fire trieda>: he is a buckler to them that hope in him. Pr. 30:5
Add not any thing to his words, lest thou be reproved and found a liar: Pr. 30:6
Accuse not a servant to his master, lest he curse thee, and thou fall. Pr. 30:10
There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother. Pr. 30:11
A generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet are not washed from their filthiness. Pr. 30:12
A generation, whose eyes are lofty, and their eyelids lifted up on high. Pr. 30:13
A generation that for teeth hath swords, and grindeth with their jaw teeth, to devour the needy from off the earth, and the poor from among men. Pr. 30:14
The way of an eagle in the air, the way of a serpent upon a rock, the way of a ship in the midst of the sea, and the way of a man in youth. Pr. 30:19
By a slave when he reigneth: by a fool when he is filled with meat: Pr. 30:22
By an odious woman when she is married: and by a bondwoman when she is heir to her mistress. Pr. 30:23
The ants, a feeble people, which provide themselves food in the harvest: Pr. 30:25
The rabbit, a weak people, which maketh its bed in the rock: Pr. 30:26
A lion, the strongest of beasts, who hath no fear of any thing he meeteth: Pr. 30:30
A cock girded about the loins: and a ram: and a king, whom none can resist. Pr. 30:31

And she hath risen in the night, and given a prey to her household, and victuals to her maidens. Pr. 31:15
She hath considered a field, and bought it: with the fruit of her hands she hath planted a vineyard. Pr. 31:16
She made fine linen, and sold it, and delivered a girdle to <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=pr 31:24">the Chanaanitea>. Pr. 31:24
What hath a man more of all his labour, that he taketh under the sun? Eccl. 1:3
I got me menservants, and maidservants, and had a great family: and herds of oxen, and great flocks of sheep, above all that were before me in Jerusalem: Eccl. 2:7
The eyes of a wise man are in his head: the fool walketh in darkness: and I learned that they were to die both alike. Eccl. 2:14
Whom I know not whether he will be a wise man or a fool, and he shall have rule over all my labours with which I have laboured and been solicitous: and is there anything so vain? Eccl. 2:19
For when a man laboureth in wisdom, and knowledge, and carefulness, he leaveth what he hath gotten to an idle man: so this also is vanity, and a great evil. Eccl. 2:21
For what profit shall a man have of all his labour, and vexation of spirit, with which he hath been tormented under the sun? Eccl. 2:22
God hath given to a man that is good in his sight, wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he hath given vexation, and superfluous care, to heap up and to gather together, and to give it to him that hath pleased God: but this also is vanity, and a fruitless solicitude of the mind. Eccl. 2:26
A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted. Eccl. 3:2
A time to kill, and a time to heal. A time to destroy, and a time to build. Eccl. 3:3
A time to weep, and a time to laugh. A time to mourn, and a time to dance. Eccl. 3:4
A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather. A time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces. Eccl. 3:5
A time to get, and a time to lose. A time to keep, and a time to cast away. Eccl. 3:6
A time to rend, and a time to sew. A time to keep silence, and a time to speak. Eccl. 3:7
A time of love, and a time of hatred. A time of war, and a time of peace. Eccl. 3:8
And I have found that nothing is better than for a man to rejoice in his work, and that this is his portion. For who shall bring him to know the things that shall be after him? Eccl. 3:22
Better is a handful with rest, than both hands full with labour, and vexation of mind. Eccl. 4:6
There is but one, and he hath not a second, no child, no brother, and yet he ceaseth not to labour, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches, neither doth he reflect, saying: For whom do I labour, and defraud my soul of good things? in this also is vanity, and a grievous vexation. Eccl. 4:8
And if a man prevail against one, two shall withstand him: a threefold cord is not easily broken. Eccl. 4:12
Better is a child that is poor and wise, than a king that is old and foolish, who knoweth not to foresee for hereafter. Eccl. 4:13
Because out of prison and chains sometimes a man cometh forth to a kingdom: and another born king is consumed with poverty. Eccl. 4:14
Speak not any thing rashly, and let not thy heart be hasty to utter a word before God. For God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few. Eccl. 5:2
And it is much better not to vow, than after a vow not to perform the things promised. Eccl. 5:5
A covetous man shall not be satisfied with money: and he that loveth riches shall reap no fruit from them: so this also is vanity. Eccl. 5:10
Sleep is sweet to a labouring man, whether he eat little or much: but the fulness of the rich will not suffer him to sleep. Eccl. 5:12
For they are lost with very great affliction: he hath begotten a son, who shall be in extremity of want. Eccl. 5:14
A most deplorable evil: as he came, so shall he return. What then doth it profit him that he hath laboured for the wind? Eccl. 5:16
This therefore hath seemed good to me, that a man should eat and drink, and enjoy the fruit of his labour, wherewith he hath laboured under the sun, all the days of his life, which God hath given him: and this is his portion. Eccl. 5:18
A man to whom God hath given riches, and substance, and honour, and his soul wanteth nothing of all that he desireth: yet God doth not give him power to eat thereof, but a stranger shall eat it up. This is vanity and a great misery. Eccl. 6:2
If a man beget a hundred children, and live many years, and attain to a great age, and his soul make no use of the goods of his substance, and he be without burial: of this man I pronounce, that the untimely born is better than he. Eccl. 6:3
What needeth a man to seek things that are above him, whereas he knoweth not what is profitable for him in his life, in all the days of his pilgrimage, and the time that passeth like a shadow? Or who can tell him what shall be after him under the sun? Eccl. 6:12
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ec 7:0">¤a> A good name is better than precious ointments: and the day of death than the day of one's birth. Eccl. 7:1
It is better to be rebuked by a wise man, than to be deceived by the flattery of fools. Eccl. 7:5
For as the crackling of thorns burning under a pot, so is the laughter of a fool: now this also is vanity. Eccl. 7:6
Better is the end of a speech than the beginning. Better is the patient man than the presumptuous. Eccl. 7:8
Be not quickly angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of a fool. Eccl. 7:9
For as wisdom is a defence, so money is a defence: but learning and wisdom excel in this, that they give life to him that possesseth them. Eccl. 7:12
These things also I saw in the days of my vanity: A just man perisheth in his justice, and a wicked man liveth a long time in his wickedness. Eccl. 7:15
Much more than it was: it is a great depth, who shall find it out? Eccl. 7:24
And I have found a woman more bitter than death, who is the hunter's snare, and her heart is a net, and her hands are bands. He that pleaseth God shall escape from her: but he that is a sinner, shall be caught by her. Eccl. 7:26
Which yet my soul seeketh, and I have not found it. One man among a thousand I have found, a woman among them all I have not found. Eccl. 7:28
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ec 8:0">¤a> The wisdom of a man shineth in his countenance, and the most mighty will change his face. Eccl. 8:1
He that keepeth the commandment, shall find no evil. The heart of a wise man understandeth time and answer. Eccl. 8:5
There is a time and opportunity for every business, and great affliction for man: Eccl. 8:6
But though a sinner do evil a hundred times, and by patience be borne withal, I know from thence that it shall be well with them that fear God, who dread his face. Eccl. 8:12
But let it not be well with the wicked, neither let his days be prolonged, but as a shadow let them pass away that fear not the face of the Lord. Eccl. 8:13
Therefore I commended mirth, because there was <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ec 8:15">no good for a mana> under the sun, but to eat, and drink, and be merry, and that he should take nothing else with him of his labour in the days of his life, which God hath given him under the sun. Eccl. 8:15
This is a very great evil among all things that are done under the sun, that the same things happen to all men: whereby also the hearts of the children of men are filled with evil, and with contempt while they live, and afterwards they shall be brought down to hell. Eccl. 9:3
There is no man that liveth always, or that hopeth for this: a living dog is better than a dead lion. Eccl. 9:4
For the living know that they shall die, but the dead <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ec 9:5">know nothing morea>, neither have they a reward any more: for the memory of them is forgotten. Eccl. 9:5
A little city, and few men in it: there came against it a great king, and invested it, and built bulwarks round about it, and the siege was perfect. Eccl. 9:14
Now there was found in it a man poor and wise, and he delivered the city by his wisdom, and no man afterward remembered that poor man. Eccl. 9:15
The words of the wise are heard in silence, more than the cry of a prince among fools. Eccl. 9:17
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ec 10:0">¤a> Dying flies spoil the sweetness of the ointment. Wisdom and glory is more precious than a small and shortlived folly. Eccl. 10:1
The heart of a wise man is in his right hand, and the heart of a fool is in his left hand. Eccl. 10:2
Yea, and the fool when he walketh in the way, whereas he himself is a fool, esteemeth all men fools. Eccl. 10:3
A fool set in high dignity, and the rich sitting beneath. Eccl. 10:6
He that diggeth a pit, shall fall into it: and he that breaketh a hedge, a serpent shall bite him. Eccl. 10:8
If a serpent bite in silence, he is nothing better that backbiteth secretly. Eccl. 10:11
The words of the mouth of a wise man are grace: but the lips of a fool shall throw him down headlong. Eccl. 10:12
The beginning of his words is folly, and the end of his talk is a mischievous error. Eccl. 10:13
A fool multiplieth words. A man cannot tell what hath been before him: and what shall be after him, who can tell him? Eccl. 10:14
Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and when the princes eat in the morning. Eccl. 10:16
By slothfulness a building shall be brought down, and through the weakness of hands, the house shall drop through. Eccl. 10:18
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ec 11:0">¤a> Cast thy bread upon the running waters: for after a long time thou shalt find it again. Eccl. 11:1
Give a portion to seven, and also to eight: for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth. Eccl. 11:2
If a man live many years, and have rejoiced in them all, he must remember the darksome time, and the many days: which when they shall come, the things past shall be accused of vanity. Eccl. 11:8
When the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men shall stagger, and the grinders shall be idle in a small number, and they that look through the holes shall be darkened: Eccl. 12:3
A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me, he shall abide between my breasts. Cant. 1:13
A cluster of cypress my love is to me, in the vineyards of Engaddi. Cant. 1:14
My beloved is like a roe, or a young hart. Behold he standeth behind our wall, looking through the windows, looking through the lattices. Cant. 2:9
Till the day break, and the shadows retire. Return: be like, my beloved, to a roe, or to a young hart upon the mountains of Bether. Cant. 2:17
When I had a little passed by them, I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him: and I will not let him go, till I bring him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that bore me. Cant. 3:4
Who is she that goeth up by the desert, as a pillar of smoke of aromatical spices, of myrrh, and frankincense, and of all the powders of the perfumer? Cant. 3:6
King Solomon hath made him a litter of the wood of Libanus: Cant. 3:9
Thy lips are as a scarlet lace: and thy speech sweet. Thy cheeks are as a piece of a pomegranate, besides that which lieth hid within. Cant. 4:3
Thy neck, is as the tower of David, which is built with bulwarks: a thousand bucklers hang upon it, all the armour of valiant men. Cant. 4:4
Thou art all fair, O my love, and there is not a spot in thee. Cant. 4:7
Thy lips, my spouse, are as a dropping honeycomb, honey and milk are under thy tongue; and the smell of thy garments, as the smell of frankincense. Cant. 4:11
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=so 4:12">My sistera>, my spouse, is a garden enclosed, a garden enclosed, a fountain sealed up. Cant. 4:12
Thy plants are a paradise of pomegranates with the fruits of the orchard. Cypress with spikenard. Cant. 4:13
The fountain of gardens: the well of living waters, which run with a strong stream from Libanus. Cant. 4:15
His head is as the finest gold: his locks as branches of palm trees, black as a raven. Cant. 5:11
Turn away thy eyes from me, for they have made me flee away. Thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from Galaad. Cant. 6:5
Thy teeth as a flock of sheep, which come up from the washing, all with twins, and there is none barren among them. Cant. 6:6
Thy cheeks are as the bark of a pomegranate, beside what is hidden within thee. Cant. 6:7
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=so 7:0">¤a> What shalt thou see in the Sulamitess but the companies of camps? <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=so 7:1">How beautiful are thy stepsa> in shoes, O prince's daughter! The joints of thy thighs are like jewels, that are made by the hand of a skilful workman. Cant. 7:1
Thy navel is like a round bowl never wanting cups. Thy belly is like a heap of wheat, set about with lilies. Cant. 7:2
Thy neck as a tower of ivory. Thy eyes like the fishpools in Hesebon, which are in the gate of the daughter of the multitude. Thy nose is as the tower of Libanus, that looketh toward Damascus. Cant. 7:4
Thy stature is like to a palm tree, and thy breasts to clusters of grapes. Cant. 7:7
The mandrakes give a smell. In our gates are all fruits: the new and the old, my beloved, I have kept for thee. Cant. 7:13
I will take hold of thee, and bring thee into my mother's house: there thou shalt teach me, and I will give thee a cup of spiced wine and new wine of my pomegranates. Cant. 8:2
Put me as a seal upon thy heart, as a seal upon thy arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy as hard as hell, the lamps thereof are fire and flames. Cant. 8:6
Many waters cannot quench charity, neither can the floods drown it: if a man should give all the substance of his house for love, he shall despise it as nothing. Cant. 8:7
If she be a wall: let us build upon it bulwarks of silver: if she be a door, let us join it together with boards of cedar. Cant. 8:9
I am a wall: and my breasts are as a tower since I am become in his presence as one finding peace. Cant. 8:10
The peaceable had a vineyard, in that which hath people: he let out the same to keepers, every man bringeth for the fruit thereof a thousand pieces of silver. Cant. 8:11
My vineyard is before me. A thousand are for thee, the peaceable, and two hundred for them that keep the fruit thereof. Cant. 8:12
For wisdom will not enter into a malicious soul, nor dwell in a body subject to sins. Wis. 1:4
For the spirit of wisdom is benevolent, and will not acquit the evil speaker from his lips: for God is witness of his reins, and he is a true searcher of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue. Wis. 1:6
But the wicked with works and words have called it to them: and esteeming it a friend, have fallen away and have made a covenant with it: because they are worthy to be of the part thereof. Wis. 1:16
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 2:0">¤a> For they have said, reasoning with themselves, but not right: The time of our life is short and tedious, and in the end of a man there is no remedy, and no man hath been known to have returned from hell: Wis. 2:1
For we are born of nothing, and after this we shall be as if we had not been: for the breath in our nostrils is smoke: and speech a spark to move our heart, Wis. 2:2
Which being put out, our body shall be ashes, and our spirit shall be poured abroad as soft air, and our life shall pass away as the trace of a cloud, and shall be dispersed as a mist, which is driven away by the beams of the sun, and overpowered with the heat thereof: Wis. 2:3
For our time is as the passing of a shadow, and there is no going back of our end: for it is fast sealed, and no man returneth: Wis. 2:5
He is become a censurer of our thoughts. Wis. 2:14
Let us condemn him to a most shameful death: for there shall be respect had unto him by his words. Wis. 2:20
As gold in the furnace, he hath proved them, and as a victim of a holocaust, he hath received them, and in time there shall be respect had to them. Wis. 3:6
And the eunuch, that hath not wrought iniquity with his hands, nor thought wicked things against God for the precious gift of faith shall be given to him, and a most acceptable lot in the temple of God. Wis. 3:14
For dreadful are the ends of a wicked race. Wis. 3:19
And if they flourish in branches for a time, yet standing not fast, they shall be shaken with the wind, and through the force of winds they shall be rooted out. Wis. 4:4
For venerable old age is not that of long time, nor counted by the number of years: but the understanding of a man is grey hairs. Wis. 4:8
And a spotless life is old age. Wis. 4:9
Being made perfect in a short space, he fulfilled a long time. Wis. 4:13
And they shall fall after this without honour, and be a reproach among the dead for ever: for he shall burst them puffed up and speechless, and shall shake them from the foundations, and they shall be utterly laid waste: they shall be in sorrow, and their memory shall perish. Wis. 4:19
Saying within themselves, repenting, and groaning for anguish of spirit: These are they, whom we had sometime in derision, and for a parable of reproach. Wis. 5:3
All those things are passed away like a shadow, and like a post that runneth on, Wis. 5:9
And as a ship, that passeth through the waves: whereof when it is gone by, the trace cannot be found, nor the path of its keel in the waters: Wis. 5:10
Or as when a bird flieth through the air, of the passage of which no mark can be found, but only the sound of the wings beating the light air, and parting it by the force of her flight: she moved her wings, and hath flown through, and there is no mark found afterwards of her way: Wis. 5:11
Or as when an arrow is shot at a mark, the divided air quickly cometh together again, so that the passage thereof is not known: Wis. 5:12
For the hope of the wicked is as dust, which is blown away with the wind, and as a thin froth which is dispersed by the storm: and a smoke that is scattered abroad by the wind: and as the remembrance of a guest of one day that passeth by. Wis. 5:15
Therefore shall they receive a kingdom of glory, and a crown of beauty at the hand of the Lord: for with his right hand he will cover them, and with his holy arm he will defend them. Wis. 5:17
He will put on justice as a breastplate, and will take true judgment instead of a helmet: Wis. 5:19
And he will sharpen his severe wrath for a spear, and the whole world shall fight with him against the unwise. Wis. 5:21
Then shafts of lightning shall go directly from the clouds, as from a bow well bent, they shall be shot out, and shall fly to the mark. Wis. 5:22
And thick hail shall be cast upon them from the stone casting wrath: the water of the sea shall rage against them, and the rivers shall run together in a terrible manner. Wis. 5:23
A mighty wind shall stand up against them, and as a whirlwind shall divide them: and their iniquity shall bring all the earth to a desert, and wickedness shall overthrow the thrones of the mighty. Wis. 5:24
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 6:0">¤a> Wisdom is better than strength: and a wise man is better than a strong man. Wis. 6:1
Horribly and speedily will he appear to you: for a most severe judgment shall be for them that bear rule. Wis. 6:6
But a greater punishment is ready for the more mighty. Wis. 6:9
Neither will I go with consuming envy: for such a man shall not be partaker of wisdom. Wis. 6:25
Now the multitude of the wise is the welfare of the whole world: and a wise king is the upholding of the people. Wis. 6:26
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 7:0">¤a> I myself am a mortal man, like all others, and of the race of him, that was first made of the earth, and in the womb of my mother I was fashioned to be flesh. Wis. 7:1
Neither did I compare unto her any precious stone: for all gold, in comparison of her, is as a little sand; and silver, in respect to her, shall be counted as clay. Wis. 7:9
For she is a vapour of the power of God, and a certain pure emmanation of the glory of the Almighty God: and therefore no defiled thing cometh into her. Wis. 7:25
Her have I loved, and have sought her out from my youth, and have desired to take her for my spouse, and I became a lover of her beauty. Wis. 8:2
And if sense do work: who is a more artful worker than she of those things that are? Wis. 8:6
And if a man love justice: her labours have great virtues: for she teacheth temperance, and prudence, and justice, and fortitude, which are such things as men can have nothing more profitable in life. Wis. 8:7
And if a man desire much knowledge: she knoweth things past, and judgeth of things to come: she knoweth the subtilties of speeches, and the solutions of arguments: she knoweth signs and wonders before they be done, and the events of times and ages. Wis. 8:8
I purposed, therefore, to take her to me to live with me: knowing that she will communicate to me of her good things, and will be a comfort in my cares and grief. Wis. 8:9
And I shall be found of a quick conceit in judgment, and shall be admired in the sight of the mighty, and the faces of princes shall wonder at me. Wis. 8:11
And I was a witty child, and had received a good soul. Wis. 8:19
And whereas I was more good, I came to a body undefiled. Wis. 8:20
And as I knew that I could not otherwise be continent, except God gave it, and this also was a point of wisdom, to know whose gift it was, I went to the Lord, and besought him, and said with my whole heart: Wis. 8:21
For I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid, a weak man, and of short time, and falling short of the understanding of judgment and laws. Wis. 9:5
Thou hast chosen me to be king of thy people, and a judge of thy sons and daughters: Wis. 9:7
And hast commanded me to build a temple on thy holy mount, and an altar in the city of thy dwelling place, a resemblance of thy holy tabernacle, which thou hast prepared from the beginning: Wis. 9:8
For the corruptible body is a load upon the soul, and the earthly habitation presseth down the mind that museth upon many things. Wis. 9:15
Whose land, for a testimony of their wickedness, is desolate, and smoketh to this day, and the trees bear fruits that ripen not, and a standing pillar of salt is a monument of an incredulous soul. Wis. 10:7
For regarding not wisdom, they did not only slip in this, that they were ignorant of good things; but they left also unto men a memorial of their folly, so that in the things in which they sinned, they could not so much as lie hid. Wis. 10:8
She kept him safe from his enemies, and she defended him from seducers, and gave him a strong <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 10:12">conflicta>, that he might overcome, and know that wisdom is mightier than all. Wis. 10:12
And she rendered to the just the wages of their labours, and conducted them in a wonderful way: and she was to them for a covert by day, and for the light of stars by night: Wis. 10:17
And she brought them through the Red Sea, and carried them over through a great water. Wis. 10:18
They were thirsty, and they called upon thee, and water was given them out of the high rock, and a refreshment of their thirst out of the hard stone. Wis. 11:4
For instead of a fountain of an ever running river, thou gavest human blood to the unjust. Wis. 11:7
And whilst they were diminished for a manifest reproof of their murdering the infants, thou gavest to thine abundant water unlooked for: Wis. 11:8
For thou didst admonish and try them as a father: but the others, as a severe king, thou didst examine and condemn. Wis. 11:11
For a double affliction came upon them, and a groaning for the remembrance of things past. Wis. 11:13
But for the foolish devices of their iniquity, because some being deceived worshipped dumb serpents and worthless beasts, thou didst send upon them a multitude of <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 11:16">dumb beastsa> for vengeance: Wis. 11:16
That they might know that by what things a man sinneth, by the same also he is tormented. Wis. 11:17
For thy almighty hand, which made the world of matter without form, was not unable to send upon them a multitude of bears, or fierce lions, Wis. 11:18
Or unknown beasts of a new kind, full of rage; either breathing out a fiery vapour, or sending forth a stinking smoke, or shooting horrible sparks out of their eyes: Wis. 11:19
For the whole world before thee is as the least grain of the balance, and as a drop of the morning dew, that falleth down upon the earth. Wis. 11:23
That the land which of all is most dear to thee, might receive a worthy colony of the children of God. Wis. 12:7
But executing thy judgments by degrees, thou gavest them place of repentance, not being ignorant that they were a wicked generation, and their malice natural, and that their thought could never be changed. Wis. 12:10
For it was a cursed seed from the beginning: neither didst thou for fear of any one give pardon to their sins. Wis. 12:11
For who shall say to thee: What hast thou done? or who shall withstand thy judgment? or who shall come before thee to be a revenger of wicked men? or who shall accuse thee, if the nations perish, which thou hast made ? Wis. 12:12
But thou hast taught thy people by such works, that they must be just and humane, and hast made thy children to be of a good hope: because in judging, thou givest place for repentance for sins. Wis. 12:19
For they went astray for a long time in the ways of error, holding those things for gods which are the most worthless among beasts, living after the manner of children without understanding. Wis. 12:24
Therefore thou hast sent a judgment upon them, as senseless children, to mock them. Wis. 12:25
For if they were able to know so much as to make a judgment of the world: how did they not more easily find out the Lord thereof? Wis. 13:9
Or if an artist, a carpenter, hath cut down a tree proper for his use in the wood, and skilfully taken off all the bark thereof, and with his art, diligently formeth a vessel profitable for the common uses of life, Wis. 13:11
And taking what was left thereof, which is good for nothing, being a crooked piece of wood, and full of knots, carveth it diligently when he hath nothing else to do, and by the skill of his art fashioneth it, and maketh it like the image of a man: Wis. 13:13
And maketh a convenient dwelling place for it, and setting it in a wall, and fastening it with iron, Wis. 13:15
And for a good journey he petitioneth him that cannot walk: and for getting, and for working, and for the event of all things he asketh him that is unable to do any thing. Wis. 13:19
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 14:0">¤a> Again, another designing to sail, and beginning to make his voyage through the raging waves, calleth upon a piece of wood more frail than the wood that carrieth him. Wis. 14:1
But thy providence, O Father, governeth it: for thou hast made a way even in the sea, and a most sure path among the waves, Wis. 14:3
Shewing that thou art able to save out of all things, yea, though a man went to sea without art. Wis. 14:4
But that the works of thy wisdom might not be idle: therefore men also trust their lives even to a little wood, and passing over the sea by ship, are saved. Wis. 14:5
And from the beginning also, when the proud giants perished, the hope of the world fleeing to a vessel, which was governed by thy hand, left to the world seed of generation. Wis. 14:6
But the idol that is made by hands, is cursed, as well it, as he that made it: he because he made it; and it because being frail it is called a god. Wis. 14:8
Therefore there shall be no respect had even to the idols of the Gentiles: because the creatures of God are turned to an abomination, and a temptation to the souls of men, and a snare to the feet of the unwise. Wis. 14:11
For a father being afflicted with bitter grief, made to himself the image of his son, who was quickly taken away: and him who then had died as a man, he began now to worship as a god, and appointed him rites and sacrifices among his servants. Wis. 14:15
Then, in process of time, wicked custom prevailing, this error was kept as a law, and statues were worshipped by the commandment of tyrants. Wis. 14:16
And those whom men could not honour in presence, because they dwelt far off, they brought their resemblance from afar, and made an express image of the king, whom they had a mind to honour: that by this their diligence, they might honour as present, him that was absent. Wis. 14:17
And the multitude of men, carried away by the beauty of the work, took him now for a god, that a little before was but honoured as a man. Wis. 14:20
And it was not enough for them to err about the knowledge of God, but whereas they lived in a great war of ignorance, they call so many and so great evils peace. Wis. 14:22
For the invention of mischievous men hath not deceived us, nor the shadow of a picture, a fruitless labour, a graven figure with divers colours, Wis. 15:4
The sight whereof enticeth the fool to lust after it, and he loveth the lifeless figure of a dead image. Wis. 15:5
And of the same clay by a vain labour he maketh a god: he who a little before was made of earth himself, and a little after returneth to the same out of which he was taken, when his life, which was lent him, shall be called for again. Wis. 15:8
But his care is, not that he shall labour, nor that his life is short, but he striveth with the goldsmiths and silversmiths: and he endeavoureth to do like the workers in brass, and counteth it a glory to make vain things. Wis. 15:9
Forasmuch as he knew not his maker, and him that inspired into him the soul that worketh, and that breathed into him a living spirit. Wis. 15:11
Yea, and they have counted our life a pastime and the business of life to be gain, and that we must be getting every way, even out of evil. Wis. 15:12
For man made them: and he that borroweth his own breath, fashioned them. For no man can make a god like to himself. Wis. 15:16
For being mortal himself, he formeth a dead thing with his wicked hands. For he is better than they whom he worshippeth, because he indeed hath lived, though he were mortal, but they never. Wis. 15:17
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 16:0">¤a> For these things, and by the like things to these, they were worthily punished, and were destroyed by a multitude of beasts. Wis. 16:1
Instead of which punishment, dealing well with thy people, thou gavest them their desire of delicious food, of a new taste, preparing for them quails for their meat: Wis. 16:2
To the end, that <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 16:3">they indeed desiring fooda>, by means of those things that were shewn and sent among them, might loath even that which was necessary to satisfy their desire. But these, after suffering want for a short time, tasted a new meat. Wis. 16:3
But thy wrath endured not for ever, but they were troubled for a short time for their correction, having a <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 16:6">sign of salvationa>, to put them in remembrance of the commandment of thy law. Wis. 16:6
A man indeed killeth through malice, and when the spirit is gone forth, it shall not return, neither shall he call back the soul that is received: Wis. 16:14
And at another time the fire, above its own power, burnt in the midst of water, to destroy the fruits of a wicked land. Wis. 16:19
For that which could not be destroyed by fire, being warmed with a little sunbeam, presently melted away: Wis. 16:27
For while the wicked thought to be able to have dominion over the holy nation, they themselves being fettered with the bonds of darkness, and a long night, shut up in their houses, lay there exiled from the eternal providence. Wis. 17:2
And while they thought to lie hid in their obscure sins, they were scattered under a dark veil of forgetfullness, being horribly afraid, and troubled with exceeding great astonishment. Wis. 17:3
But there appeared to them a sudden fire, very dreadful: and being struck with the fear of that face, which was not seen, they thought the things which they saw to be worse: Wis. 17:6
For they who promised to drive away fears and troubles from a sick soul, were sick themselves of a fear worthy to be laughed at. Wis. 17:8
For whereas wickedness is fearful, it beareth witness of its condemnation: for a troubled conscience always forecasteth grievous things. Wis. 17:10
For fear is nothing else but a yielding up of the succours from thought. Wis. 17:11
Were sometimes molested with the fear of monsters, sometimes fainted away, their soul failing them: for a sudden and unlooked for fear was come upon them. Wis. 17:14
For if any one were a husbandman, or a shepherd, or a labourer in the field, and was suddenly overtaken, he endured a necessity from which he could not fly. Wis. 17:16
For they were all bound together with one chain of darkness. Whether it were a whistling wind, or the melodious voice of birds, among the spreading branches of trees, or a fall of water running down with violence, Wis. 17:17
Or the mighty noise of stones tumbling down, or the running that could not be seen of beasts playing together, or the roaring voice of wild beasts, or a rebounding echo from the highest mountains: these things made them to swoon for fear. Wis. 17:18
For the whole world was enlightened, with a clear light, and none were hindered in their labours. Wis. 17:19
But over them only was spread a heavy night, an image of that darkness which was to come upon them. But they were to themselves more grievous than the darkness. Wis. 17:20
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 18:0">¤a> But thy saints had a very great light, and they heard their voice indeed, but did not see their shape. And because they also did not suffer the same things, they glorified thee: Wis. 18:1
And they that before had been wronged, gave thanks, because they were not hurt now: and asked this gift, that there might be a difference. Wis. 18:2
Therefore they received a burning pillar of fire for a guide of the way which they knew not, and thou gavest them <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 18:3">a harmless suna> of a good entertainment. Wis. 18:3
And whereas they thought to kill the babes of the just: <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 18:5">one childa> being cast forth, and saved to reprove them, thou tookest away a multitude of their children, and destroyedst them altogether in a mighty water. Wis. 18:5
For the just children <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xwis 18:9">of good mena> were offering sacrifice secretly, and they unanimously ordered a law of justice: that the just should receive both good and evil alike, singing now the praises of the fathers. Wis. 18:9
But on the other side there sounded an ill according cry of the enemies, and a lamentable mourning was heard for the children that were bewailed. Wis. 18:10
And the servant suffered the same punishment as the master, and a common man suffered in like manner as the king. Wis. 18:11
Thy Almighty word leaped down from heaven from thy royal throne, as a fierce conqueror into the midst of the land of destruction, Wis. 18:15
With a sharp sword carrying thy unfeigned commandment, and he stood and filled all things with death, and standing on the earth, reached even to heaven. Wis. 18:16
But the just also were afterwards touched by an assault of death, and there was a disturbance of the multitude in the wilderness: but thy wrath did not long continue; Wis. 18:20
For a blameless man made haste to pray for the people, bringing forth the shield of his ministry, prayer, and by incense making supplication, withstood the wrath, and put an end to the calamity, shewing that he was thy servant. Wis. 18:21
And he overcame the disturbance, not by strength of body nor with force of arms, but with a word he subdued him that punished them, alleging the oath and covenant made with the fathers. Wis. 18:22
For a necessity, of which they were worthy, brought them to this end: and they lost the remembrance of those things which had happened, that their punishment might fill up what was wanting to their torments: Wis. 19:4
And that thy people might wonderfully pass through, but they might find a new death. Wis. 19:5
For a cloud overshadowed their camp and where water was before, dry land appeared, and in the Red Sea a way without hindrance, and out of the great deep a springing field: Wis. 19:7
For they were yet mindful of those things which had been done in the time of their sojourning, how the ground brought forth flies instead of cattle, and how the river cast up a multitude of frogs instead of fishes. Wis. 19:10
And at length they saw a new generation of birds, when being led by their appetite, they asked for delicate meats. Wis. 19:11
For they exercised a more detestable inhospitality than any: others indeed received not strangers unknown to them, but these brought their guests into bondage that had deserved well of them. Wis. 19:13
There is one most high Creator Almighty, and a powerful king, and greatly to be feared, who sitteth upon his throne, and is the God of dominion. Sir. 1:8
The fear of the Lord is honour, and glory, and gladness, and a crown of joy. Sir. 1:11
The fear of the Lord is a crown of wisdom, filling up peace and the fruit of salvation: Sir. 1:22
A patient man shall bear for a time, and afterwards joy shall be restored to him. Sir. 1:29
A good understanding will hide his words for a time, and the lips of many shall declare his wisdom. Sir. 1:30
But the worship of God is an abomination to a sinner. Sir. 1:32
Be not incredulous to the fear of the Lord: and come not to him with a double heart. Sir. 1:36
Be not a hypocrite in the sight of men, and let not thy lips be a stumblingblock to thee. Sir. 1:37
For God is compassionate and merciful, and will forgive sins in the day of tribulation: and he is a protector to all that seek him in truth. Sir. 2:13
Woe to them that are of a double heart and to wicked lips, and to the hands that do evil, and to the sinner that goeth on the earth two ways. Sir. 2:14
And he that honoureth his mother is as one that layeth up a treasure. Sir. 3:5
He that honoureth his father shall enjoy a long life: and he that obeyeth the father, shall be a comfort to his mother. Sir. 3:7
That a blessing may come upon thee from him, and his blessing may remain in the latter end. Sir. 3:10
For the glory of a man is from the honour of his father, and a father without honour is the disgrace of the son. Sir. 3:13
A hard heart shall fear evil at the last: and he that loveth danger shall perish in it. Sir. 3:27
A heart that goeth two ways shall not have success, and the perverse of heart shall be scandalized therein. Sir. 3:28
A wicked heart shall be laden with sorrows, and the sinner will add sin to sin. Sir. 3:29
The heart of the wise is understood in wisdom, and a good ear will hear wisdom with all desire. Sir. 3:31
A wise heart, and which hath understanding, will abstain from sins, and in the works of justice shall have success. Sir. 3:32
Water quencheth a flaming fire, and alms resisteth sins: Sir. 3:33
And God provideth for him that sheweth favour: he remembereth him afterwards, and in the time of his fall he shall find a sure stay. Sir. 3:34
Make thyself affable to the congregation of the poor, and humble thy soul to the ancient, and bow thy head to a great man. Sir. 4:7
In judging be merciful to the fatherless as a father, and as a husband to their mother. Sir. 4:10
And thou shalt be as the obedient son of the most High, and he will have mercy on thee more than a mother. Sir. 4:11
They that hold her fast, shall inherit life: and whithersoever she entereth, God will give a blessing. Sir. 4:14
Then she will strengthen him, and make a straight way to him, and give him joy, Sir. 4:20
For there is a shame that bringeth sin, and there is a shame that bringeth glory and grace. Sir. 4:25
Accept no person against thy own person, nor against thy soul a lie. Sir. 4:26
Be not as a lion in thy house, terrifying them of thy household, and oppressing them that are under thee. Sir. 4:35
Say not: I have sinned, and what harm hath befallen me? for the most High is a patient rewarder. Sir. 5:4
For his wrath shall come on a sudden, and in the time of vengeance he will destroy thee. Sir. 5:9
Winnow not with every wind, and go not into every way: for so is every sinner proved by a double tongue. Sir. 5:11
Be meek to hear the word, that thou mayst understand: and return a true answer with wisdom. Sir. 5:13
Be not called a whisperer, and be not taken in thy tongue, and confounded. Sir. 5:16
For confusion and repentance is upon a thief, and an evil mark of disgrace upon the double tongued, but to the whisperer hatred, and enmity, and reproach. Sir. 5:17
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 6:0">¤a> Instead of a friend become not an enemy to thy neighbour: for an evil man shall inherit reproach and shame, so shall every sinner that is envious and double tongued. Sir. 6:1
Extol not thyself in the thoughts of thy soul like a bull: lest thy strength be quashed by folly, Sir. 6:2
And it eat up thy leaves, and destroy thy fruit, and thou be left as a dry tree in the wilderness. Sir. 6:3
For a wicked soul shall destroy him that hath it, and maketh him to be a joy to his enemies, and shall lead him into the lot of the wicked. Sir. 6:4
A sweet word multiplieth friends, and appeaseth enemies, and a gracious tongue in a good man aboundeth. Sir. 6:5
Be in peace with many, but let one of a thousand be thy counsellor. Sir. 6:6
If thou wouldst get a friend, try him before thou takest him, and do not credit him easily. Sir. 6:7
For there is a friend for his own occasion, and he will not abide in the day of thy trouble. Sir. 6:8
And there is a friend that turneth to enmity; and there is a friend that will disclose hatred and strife and reproaches. Sir. 6:9
And there is a friend a companion at the table, and he will not abide in the day of distress. Sir. 6:10
A friend if he continue steadfast, shall be to thee as thyself, and shall act with confidence among them of thy household. Sir. 6:11
A faithful friend is a strong defence: and he that hath found him, hath found a treasure. Sir. 6:14
Nothing can be compared to a faithful friend, and no weight of gold and silver is able to countervail the goodness of his fidelity. Sir. 6:15
A faithful friend is the medicine of life and immortality: and they that fear the Lord, shall find him. Sir. 6:16
For in working about her thou shalt labour a little, and shalt quickly eat of her fruits. Sir. 6:20
She shall be to them as a mighty stone of trial, and they will cast her from them before it be long. Sir. 6:22
Then shall her fetters be a strong defence for thee, and a firm foundation, and her chain a robe of glory: Sir. 6:30
For in her is the beauty of life, and her bands are a healthful binding. Sir. 6:31
Thou shalt put her on as a robe of glory, and thou shalt set her upon thee as a crown of joy. Sir. 6:32
And if thou see a man of understanding, go to him early in the morning, and let thy foot wear the steps of his doors. Sir. 6:36
Let thy thoughts be upon the precepts of God, and meditate continually on his commandments: and he will give thee a heart, and the desire of wisdom shall be given to thee. Sir. 6:37
Seek not of the Lord a preeminence, nor of the king the seat of honour. Sir. 7:4
Seek not to be made a judge, unless thou have strength enough to extirpate iniquities: lest thou fear the person of the powerful, and lay a stumblingblock for thy integrity. Sir. 7:6
Offend not against the multitude of a city, neither cast thyself in upon the people, Sir. 7:7
Devise not a lie against thy brother: neither do the like against thy friend. Sir. 7:13
Be not full of words in a multitude of ancients, and <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 7:15">repeat nota> the word in thy prayer. Sir. 7:15
Depart not from a wise and good wife, whom thou hast gotten in the fear of the Lord: for the grace of her modesty is above gold. Sir. 7:21
Let a wise servant be dear to thee as thy own soul, defraud him not of liberty, nor leave him needy. Sir. 7:23
Hast thou daughters? have a care of their body, and shew not thy countenance gay towards them. Sir. 7:26
Marry thy daughter well, and thou shalt do a great work, and give her to a wise man. Sir. 7:27
If thou hast a wife according to thy soul, cast her not off: and to her that is hateful, trust not thyself. With thy whole heart, Sir. 7:28
Remember that thou hadst not been born but through them: and make a return to them as they have done for thee. Sir. 7:30
Give them their portion, as it is commanded thee, of the firstfruits and of purifications: and for thy negligences purify thyself with a few. Sir. 7:34
A gift hath grace in the sight of all the living, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 7:37">and restrain not grace from the deada>. Sir. 7:37
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 8:0">¤a> Strive not with a powerful man, lest thou fall into his hands. Sir. 8:1
Contend not with a rich man, lest he bring an action against thee. Sir. 8:2
Strive not with a man that is full of tongue, and heap not wood upon his fire. Sir. 8:4
Despise not a man that turneth away from sin, nor reproach him therewith: remember that we are all worthy of reproof. Sir. 8:6
Despise not a man in his old age; for we also shall become old. Sir. 8:7
Stand not against the face of an injurious person, lest he sit as a spy to entrap thee in thy words. Sir. 8:14
Lend not to a man that is mightier than thyself: and if thou lendest, count it as lost. Sir. 8:15
Judge not against a judge: for he judgeth according to that which is just. Sir. 8:17
Go not on the way with a bold man, lest he burden thee with his evils: for he goeth according to his own will, and thou shalt perish together with his folly. Sir. 8:18
Quarrel not with a passionate man, and go not into the desert with a bold man: for blood is as nothing in his sight, and where there is no help he will overthrow thee. Sir. 8:19
Before a stranger do no matter of counsel: for thou knowest not what he will bring forth. Sir. 8:21
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 9:0">¤a> Be not jealous over the wife of thy bosom, lest she shew in thy regard the malice of a wicked lesson. Sir. 9:1
Give not the power of thy soul to a woman, lest she enter upon thy strength, and thou be confounded. Sir. 9:2
Look not upon a woman that hath a mind for many: lest thou fall into her snares. Sir. 9:3
Use not much the company of her that is a dancer, and hearken not to her, lest thou perish by the force of her charms. Sir. 9:4
Gaze not upon a maiden, lest her beauty be a stumblingblock to thee. Sir. 9:5
Turn away thy face from a woman dressed up, and gaze not about upon another's beauty. Sir. 9:8
For many have perished by the beauty of a woman, and hereby lust is enkindled as a fire. Sir. 9:9
Every woman that is a harlot, shall be trodden upon as dung in the way. Sir. 9:10
A new friend is as new wine: it shall grow old, and thou shalt drink it with pleasure. Sir. 9:15
Envy not the glory and riches of a sinner: for thou knowest not what his ruin shall be. Sir. 9:16
Know it to be a communication with death: for thou art going in the midst of snares, and walking upon the arms of them that are grieved. Sir. 9:20
A man full of tongue is terrible in his city, and he that is rash in his word shall be hateful. Sir. 9:25
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 10:0">¤a> A wise judge shall <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 10:1">judge his peoplea>, and the government of a prudent man shall be steady. Sir. 10:1
As the judge of the people is himself, so also are his ministers: and what manner of man the ruler of a city is, such also are they that dwell therein. Sir. 10:2
The power of the earth is in the hand of God, and in his time he will raise up a profitable ruler over it. Sir. 10:4
A kingdom is translated from one people to another, because of injustices, and wrongs, and injuries, and divers deceits. Sir. 10:8
There is not a more wicked thing than to love money: for such a one setteth even his own soul to sale: because while he liveth he hath cast away his bowels. Sir. 10:10
All power is of short life. A long sickness is troublesome to the physician. Sir. 10:11
The physician cutteth off a short sickness: so also a king is to day, and to morrow he shall die. Sir. 10:12
For when a man shall die, he shall inherit serpents, and beasts, and worms. Sir. 10:13
Despise not a just man that is poor, and do not magnify a sinful man that is rich. Sir. 10:26
They that are free shall serve a servant that is wise: and a man that is prudent and well instructed will not murmur when he is reproved; and he that is ignorant, shall not be honoured. Sir. 10:28
The poor man is glorified by his discipline and fear, and there is a man that is honoured for his wealth. Sir. 10:33
Praise not a man for his beauty, neither despise a man for his look. Sir. 11:2
Before thou hear, answer not a word: and interrupt not others in the midst of their discourse. Sir. 11:8
Strive not in a matter which doth not concern thee, and sit not in judgment with sinners. Sir. 11:9
For it is easy in the eyes of God on a sudden to make the poor man rich. Sir. 11:23
The blessing of God maketh haste to reward the just, and in a swift hour his blessing beareth fruit. Sir. 11:24
The affliction of an hour maketh one forget great delights, and in the end of a man is the disclosing of his works. Sir. 11:29
Praise not any man before death, for a man is known by his children. Sir. 11:30
For as corrupted bowels send forth stinking breath, and as the partridge is brought into the cage, and as the roe into the snare: so also is the heart of the proud, and as a spy that looketh on the fall of his neighbour. Sir. 11:32
For he lieth in wait and turneth good into evil, and on the elect he will lay a blot. Sir. 11:33
Of one spark cometh a great fire, and of one deceitful man much blood: and a sinful man lieth in wait for blood. Sir. 11:34
Take heed to thyself of a mischievous man, for he worketh evils: lest he bring upon thee reproach for ever. Sir. 11:35
Receive a stranger in, and he shall overthrow thee with a whirlwind, and shall turn thee out of thy own. Sir. 11:36
Give to the good, and receive not a sinner. Sir. 12:5
A friend shall not be known in prosperity, and an enemy shall not be hidden in adversity. Sir. 12:8
In the prosperity of a man, his enemies are grieved: and a friend is known in his adversity. Sir. 12:9
Never trust thy enemy for as a brass pot his wickedness rusteth: Sir. 12:10
Who will pity an enchanter struck by a serpent, or any that come near wild beasts? so is it with him that keepeth company with a wicked man, and is involved in his sins. Sir. 12:13
An enemy speaketh sweetly with his lips, but in his heart he lieth in wait, to throw thee into a pit. Sir. 12:15
He shall take a burden upon him that hath fellowship with one more honourable than himself. And have no fellowship with one that is richer than thyself. Sir. 13:2
What fellowship hath a holy man with a dog, or what part hath the rich with the poor? Sir. 13:22
When a rich man is shaken, he is kept up by his friends: but when a poor man is fallen down, he is thrust away even by his acquaintance. Sir. 13:25
When a rich man hath been deceived, he hath many helpers: he hath spoken proud things, and they have justified him. Sir. 13:26
The heart of a man changeth his countenance, either for good, or for evil. Sir. 13:31
The token of a good heart, and a good countenance thou shalt hardly find, and with labour. Sir. 13:32
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 14:0">¤a> Blessed is the man that hath not slipped by a word out of his mouth, and is not pricked with the remorse of sin. Sir. 14:1
Riches are not comely for a covetous man and a niggard, and what should an envious man do with gold? Sir. 14:3
Defraud not thyself of the good day, and let not the part of a good gift overpass thee. Sir. 14:14
All flesh shall fade as grass, and as the leaf that springeth out on a green tree. Sir. 14:18
He that lodgeth near her house, and fastening a pin in her walls shall set up his tent nigh unto her, where good things shall rest in his lodging for ever. Sir. 14:25
And she will meet him as an honourable mother, and will receive him as a wife married of a virgin. Sir. 15:2
And in the midst of the church she shall open his mouth, and shall fill him with the spirit of wisdom and understanding, and shall clothe him with a robe of glory. Sir. 15:5
She shall heap upon him a treasure of joy and gladness, and shall cause him to inherit an everlasting name. Sir. 15:6
Praise is not seemly in the mouth of a sinner: Sir. 15:9
For wisdom came forth from God: for praise shall be with the wisdom of God, and shall abound in a faithful mouth, and the sovereign Lord will give praise unto it. Sir. 15:10
For he desireth not a multitude of faithless and unprofitable children. Sir. 15:22
For better is one that feareth God, than a thousand ungodly children. Sir. 16:3
By one that is wise a country shall be inhabited, the tribe of the ungodly shall become desolate. Sir. 16:5
In the congregation of sinners a fire shall be kindled, and in an unbelieving nation wrath shall flame out. Sir. 16:7
So did he with the <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 16:11">six hundred thousand footmena>, who were gathered together in the hardness of their heart: and if one had been stiffnecked, it is a wonder if he had escaped unpunished: Sir. 16:11
According as his mercy is, so his correction judgeth a man according to his works. Sir. 16:13
All mercy shall make a place for every man according to the merit of his works, and according to the wisdom of his sojournment. Sir. 16:15
In such a multitude I shall not be known: for what is my soul in such an immense creation? Sir. 16:17
He created of him a helpmate like to himself, he gave them counsel, and a tongue, and eyes, and ears, and a heart to devise: and he filled them with the knowledge of understanding. Sir. 17:5
Over every nation he set a ruler. Sir. 17:14
The alms of a man is as a signet with him, and shall preserve the grace of a man as the apple of the eye: Sir. 17:18
When a man hath done, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 18:6">then shall he begina>: and when he leaveth off, he shall be at a loss. Sir. 18:6
The number of the days of men at the most are a hundred years, as a drop of water of the sea are they esteemed: and as a pebble of the sand, so are a few years compared to eternity. Sir. 18:8
He hath mercy, and teacheth, and correcteth, as a shepherd doth his flock. Sir. 18:13
Lo, is not a word better than a gift? but both are with a justified man. Sir. 18:17
A fool will upbraid bitterly: and a gift of one ill taught consumeth the eyes. Sir. 18:18
Before sickness take a medicine, and before judgment examine thyself, and thou shalt find mercy in the sight of God. Sir. 18:20
Before prayer prepare thy soul: and be not as a man that tempteth God. Sir. 18:23
A wise man will fear in every thing, and in the days of sins will beware of sloth. Sir. 18:27
If thou give to thy soul her desires, she will make thee a joy to thy enemies. Sir. 18:31
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 19:0">¤a> A workman that is a drunkard shall not be rich: and he that contemneth small things, shall fall by little and little. Sir. 19:1
And he that joineth himself to harlots, will be wicked. Rottenness and worms shall inherit him, and he shall be lifted up for a greater example, and his soul shall be taken away out of the number. Sir. 19:3
Rehearse not again a wicked and harsh word, and thou shalt not fare the worse. Sir. 19:7
Tell not thy mind to friend or foe: and if there be a sin with thee, disclose it not. Sir. 19:8
Hast thou heard a word against thy neighbour? let it die within thee, trusting that it will not burst thee. Sir. 19:10
At the hearing of a word the fool is in travail, as a woman groaning in the bringing forth a child. Sir. 19:11
As an arrow that sticketh in a man's thigh: so is a word in the heart of a fool. Sir. 19:12
Reprove a friend, lest he may not have understood, and say: I did it not: or if he did it, that he may do it no more. Sir. 19:13
Admonish thy friend: for there is often a fault committed. Sir. 19:15
There is a subtle wickedness, and the same is detestable: and there is a man that is foolish, wanting in wisdom. Sir. 19:20
Better is a man that hath less wisdom, and wanteth understanding, with the fear of God, than he that aboundeth in understanding, and transgresseth the law of the most High. Sir. 19:21
And there is one that submitteth himself exceedingly with a great lowliness: and there is one that casteth down his countenance, and maketh as if he did not see that which is unknown: Sir. 19:24
A man is known by his look, and a wise man, when thou meetest him, is known by his countenance. Sir. 19:26
There is a lying rebuke in the anger of an injurious man: and there is a judgment that is not allowed to be good: and there is one that holdeth his peace, he is wise. Sir. 19:28
The lust of an eunuch shall deflour a young maiden: Sir. 20:2
A wise man will hold his peace till he see opportunity: but a babbler, and a fool, will regard no time. Sir. 20:7
There is success in evil things to a man without discipline, and there is a finding that turneth to loss. Sir. 20:9
There is a gift that is not profitable: and there is a gift, the recompense of which is double. Sir. 20:10
There is an abasement because of glory: and there is one that shall lift up his head from a low estate. Sir. 20:11
There is that buyeth much for a small price, and restoreth the same sevenfold. Sir. 20:12
A man wise in words shall make himself beloved: but the graces of fools shall be poured out. Sir. 20:13
He will give a few things, and upbraid much: and the opening of his mouth is the kindling of a fire. Sir. 20:15
To day a man lendeth, and to morrow he asketh it again: such a man as this is hateful. Sir. 20:16
A fool shall have no friend, and there shall be no thanks for his good deeds. Sir. 20:17
For they that eat his bread, are of a false tongue. How often, and how many will laugh him to scorn! Sir. 20:18
The slipping of a false tongue is as one that falleth on the pavement: so the fall of the wicked shall come speedily. Sir. 20:20
A man without grace is as a vain fable, it shall be continually in the mouth of the unwise. Sir. 20:21
A parable coming out of a fool's mouth shall be rejected: for he doth not speak it in due season. Sir. 20:22
A lie is a foul blot in a man, and yet it will be continually in the mouth of men without discipline. Sir. 20:26
A thief is better than a man that is always lying: but both of them shall inherit destruction. Sir. 20:27
A wise man shall advance himself with his words, and a prudent man shall please the great ones. Sir. 20:29
He that tilleth his land shall make a high heap of corn: and he that worketh justice shall be exalted: and he that pleaseth great men shall escape iniquity. Sir. 20:30
Flee from sins as from the face of a serpent: for if thou comest near them, they will take hold of thee. Sir. 21:2
The teeth thereof are the teeth of a lion, killing the souls of men. Sir. 21:3
All iniquity is like a two-edged sword, there is no remedy for the wound thereof. Sir. 21:4
He that hateth to be reproved walketh in the trace of a sinner: and he that feareth God will turn to his own heart. Sir. 21:7
He that is mighty by a bold tongue is known afar off, but a wise man knoweth to slip by him. Sir. 21:8
The congregation of sinners is like tow heaped together, and the end of them is a flame of fire. Sir. 21:10
But there is a wisdom that aboundeth in evil: and there is no understanding where there is bitterness. Sir. 21:15
The knowledge of a wise man shall abound like a flood, and his counsel continueth like a fountain of life. Sir. 21:16
The heart of a fool is like a broken vessel, and no wisdom at all shall it hold. Sir. 21:17
A man of sense will praise every wise word he shall hear, and will apply it to himself: the luxurious man hath heard it, and it shall displease him, and he will cast it behind his back. Sir. 21:18
The talking of a fool is like a burden in the way: but in the lips of the wise, grace shall be found. Sir. 21:19
As a house that is destroyed, so is wisdom to a fool: and the knowledge of the unwise is as words without sense. Sir. 21:21
Doctrine to a fool is as fetters on the feet, and like manacles on the right hand. Sir. 21:22
A fool lifteth up his voice in laughter: but a wise man will scarce laugh low to himself. Sir. 21:23
Learning to the prudent is as an ornament of gold, and like a bracelet upon his right arm. Sir. 21:24
The foot of a fool is soon in his neighbour's house: but a man of experience will be abashed at the person of the mighty. Sir. 21:25
A fool will peep through the window into the house: but he that is well taught will stand without. Sir. 21:26
It is the folly of a man to hearken at the door: and a wise man will be grieved with the disgrace. Sir. 21:27
The lips of the unwise will be telling foolish things: but the words of the wise shall be weighed in a balance. Sir. 21:28
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 22:0">¤a> The sluggard is pelted with a dirty stone, and all men will speak of his disgrace. Sir. 22:1
A son ill taught is the confusion of the father: and a foolish daughter shall be to his loss. Sir. 22:3
A wise daughter shall bring an inheritance to her husband: but she that confoundeth, becometh a disgrace to her father. Sir. 22:4
A tale out of time is like music in mourning: but the stripes and instruction of wisdom are never out of time. Sir. 22:6
He that teacheth a fool, is like one that glueth a potsherd together. Sir. 22:7
He that telleth a word to him that heareth not, is like one that waketh a man out of a deep sleep. Sir. 22:8
He speaketh with one that is asleep, who uttereth wisdom to a fool: and in the end of the discourse he saith: Who is this? Sir. 22:9
Weep but a little for the dead, for he is at rest. Sir. 22:11
For the wicked life of a wicked fool is worse than death. Sir. 22:12
The mourning for the dead is seven days: but for a fool and an ungodly man all the days of their life. Sir. 22:13
Talk not much with a fool and go not with him that hath no sense. Sir. 22:14
Sand and salt, and a mass of iron is easier to bear, than a man without sense, that is both foolish and wicked. Sir. 22:18
A frame of wood bound together in the foundation of a building, shall not be loosed: so neither shall the heart that is established by advised counsel. Sir. 22:19
So also a fearful heart in the imagination of a fool shall not resist against the violence of fear. Sir. 22:22
As a fearful heart in the thought of a fool at all times will not fear, so neither shall he that continueth always in the commandments of God. Sir. 22:23
He that flingeth a stone at birds, shall drive them away: so he that upbraideth his friend, breaketh friendship. Sir. 22:25
Although thou hast drawn a sword at a friend, despair not: for there may be a returning. To a friend, Sir. 22:26
If thou hast opened a sad mouth, fear not, for there may be a reconciliation: except upbraiding, and reproach, and pride, and disclosing of secrets, or a treacherous wound: for in all these cases a friend will flee away. Sir. 22:27
Keep fidelity with a friend in his poverty, that in his prosperity also thou mayst rejoice. Sir. 22:28
As the vapour of a chimney, and the smoke of the fire goeth up before the fire: so also injurious words, and reproaches, and threats, before blood. Sir. 22:30
I will not be ashamed to salute a friend, neither will I hide myself from his face: and if any evil happen to me by him, I will bear it. Sir. 22:31
Who will set a guard before my mouth, and a sure seal upon my lips, that I fall not by them, and that my tongue destroy me not? Sir. 22:33
Take from me the greediness of the belly, and let not the lusts of the flesh take hold of me, and give me not over to a shameless and foolish mind. Sir. 23:6
A sinner is caught in his own vanity, and the proud and the evil speakers shall fall thereby. Sir. 23:8
For as a slave daily put to the question, is never without a blue mark: so every one that sweareth, and nameth, shall not be wholly pure from sin. Sir. 23:11
A man that sweareth much, shall be filled with iniquity, and a scourge shall not depart from his house. Sir. 23:12
A hot soul is a burning fire, it will never be quenched, till it devour some thing. Sir. 23:22
And a man that is wicked in the mouth of his flesh, will not leave off till he hath kindled a fire. Sir. 23:23
To a man that is a fornicator all bread is sweet, he will not be weary of sinning unto the end. Sir. 23:24
And he understandeth not that his eye seeth all things, for such a man's fear driveth from him the fear of God, and the eyes of men fearing him: Sir. 23:27
This man shall be punished in the streets of the city, and he shall be chased as a colt: and where he suspected not, he shall be taken. Sir. 23:30
I made that in the heavens there should rise light that never faileth, and as a cloud I covered all the earth: Sir. 24:6
I dwelt in the highest places, and my throne is in a pillar of a cloud. Sir. 24:7
I was exalted like a cedar in Libanus, and as a cypress tree on mount Sion. Sir. 24:17
I was exalted like a palm tree in Cades, and as a rose plant in Jericho: Sir. 24:18
As a fair olive tree in the plains, and as a plane tree by the water in the streets, was I exalted. Sir. 24:19
I gave a sweet smell like cinnamon, and aromatical balm: I yielded a sweet odour like the best myrrh: Sir. 24:20
As the vine I have brought forth a pleasant odour: and my flowers are the fruit of honour and riches. Sir. 24:23
Moses commanded a law in the precepts of justices, and an inheritance to the house of Jacob, and the promises to Israel. Sir. 24:33
He appointed to David his servant to raise up of him <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 24:34">a most mighty kinga>, and sitting on the throne of glory for ever. Sir. 24:34
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 24:38">Who first hath perfect knowledge of hera>, and a weaker shall not search her out. Sir. 24:38
I, like a brook out of a river of a mighty water; I, like a channel of a river, and like an aqueduct, came out of paradise. Sir. 24:41
And behold my brook became a great river, and my river came near to a sea: Sir. 24:43
A poor man that is proud: a rich man that is a liar: an old man that is a fool, and doting. Sir. 25:4
O how comely is judgment for a grey head, and for ancients to know counsel! Sir. 25:6
A man that hath joy of his children: and he that liveth and seeth the fall of his enemies. Sir. 25:10
Blessed is he that dwelleth with a wise woman, and that hath not slipped with his tongue, and that hath not served such as are unworthy of him. Sir. 25:11
Blessed is he that findeth a true friend, and that declareth justice to an ear that heareth. Sir. 25:12
The sadness of the heart is every plague: and the wickedness of a woman is all evil. Sir. 25:17
And a man will choose any plague, but the plague of the heart: Sir. 25:18
And any wickedness, but the wickedness of a woman: Sir. 25:19
There is no head worse than the head of a serpent: Sir. 25:22
And there is no anger above the anger of a woman. It will be more agreeable to abide with a lion and a dragon, than to dwell with a wicked woman. Sir. 25:23
The wickedness of a woman changeth her face: and she darkeneth her countenance as a bear: and sheweth it like sackcloth. In the midst of her neighbours, Sir. 25:24
Her husband groaned, and hearing he sighed a little. Sir. 25:25
All malice is short to the malice of a woman, let the lot of sinners fall upon her. Sir. 25:26
As the climbing of a sandy way is to the feet of the aged, so is a wife full of tongue to a quiet man. Sir. 25:27
Look not upon a woman's beauty, and desire not a woman for beauty. Sir. 25:28
A woman's anger, and impudence, and confusion is great. Sir. 25:29
A woman, if she have superiority, is contrary to her husband. Sir. 25:30
A wicked woman abateth the courage, and maketh a heavy countenance, and a wounded heart. Sir. 25:31
Feeble hands, and disjointed knees, a woman that doth not make her husband happy. Sir. 25:32
Give no issue to thy water, no, not a little: nor to a wicked woman liberty to gad abroad. Sir. 25:34
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 26:0">¤a> Happy is the husband of a good wife: for the number of his years is double. Sir. 26:1
A virtuous woman rejoiceth her husband, and shall fulfil the years of his life in peace. Sir. 26:2
A good wife is a good portion, she shall be given in the portion of them that fear God, to a man for his good deeds. Sir. 26:3
The accusation of a city, and the gathering together of the people: Sir. 26:6
And a false calumny, all are more grievous than death. Sir. 26:7
A jealous woman is the grief and mourning of the heart. Sir. 26:8
With a jealous woman is a scourge of the tongue which communicateth with all. Sir. 26:9
As a yoke of oxen that is moved to and fro, so also is a wicked woman: he that hath hold of her, is as he that taketh hold of a scorpion. Sir. 26:10
A drunken woman is a great wrath: and her reproach and shame shall not be hid. Sir. 26:11
The fornication of a woman shall be known by the haughtiness of her eyes and by her eyelids. Sir. 26:12
On a daughter that turneth not away herself, set a strict watch: lest finding an opportunity she abuse herself. Sir. 26:13
She will open her mouth as a thirsty traveller to the fountain, and will drink of every water near her, and will sit down by every hedge, and open her quiver against every arrow, until she fail. Sir. 26:15
The grace of a diligent woman shall delight her husband, and shall fat his bones. Sir. 26:16
Such is a wise and silent woman, and there is nothing so much worth as a well instructed soul. Sir. 26:18
A holy and shamefaced woman is grace upon grace. Sir. 26:19
And no price is worthy of a continent soul. Sir. 26:20
As the sun when it riseth to the world in the high places of God, so is the beauty of a good wife for the ornament of her house. Sir. 26:21
As the lamp shining upon the holy candlestick, so is the beauty of the face in a ripe age, Sir. 26:22
As golden pillars upon bases of silver, so are the firm feet upon the soles of a steady woman. Sir. 26:23
As everlasting foundations upon a solid rock, so the commandments of God in the heart of a holy woman. Sir. 26:24
A man of war fainting through poverty, and a man of sense despised: Sir. 26:26
Two sorts of callings have appeared to me hard and dangerous: a merchant is hardly free <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 26:28">from negligencea>: and a huckster shall not be justified from the sins of the lips. Sir. 26:28
As a stake sticketh fast in the midst of the joining of stones, so also in the midst of selling and buying, sin shall stick fast. Sir. 27:2
As when one sifteth with a sieve, the dust will remain: so will the perplexity of a man in his thoughts. Sir. 27:5
As the dressing of a tree sheweth the fruit thereof, so a word out of the thought of the heart of man. Sir. 27:7
Praise not a man before he speaketh, for this is the trial of men. Sir. 27:8
If thou followest justice, thou shalt obtain her: and shalt put her on as a long robe of honour, and thou shalt dwell with her: and she shall protect thee for ever, and in the day of acknowledgment thou shalt find a strong foundation. Sir. 27:9
A holy man continueth in wisdom as the sun: but a fool is changed as the moon. Sir. 27:12
In the quarrels of the proud is the shedding of blood: and their cursing is a grievous hearing. Sir. 27:16
He that discloseth the secret of a friend loseth his credit, and shall never find a friend to his mind. Sir. 27:17
For as a man that destroyeth his friend, so also is he that destroyeth the friendship of his neighbour. Sir. 27:20
And as one that letteth a bird go out of his hand, so hast thou let thy neighbour go, and thou shalt not get him again. Sir. 27:21
Follow after him no more, for he is gone afar off, he is fled, as a roe escaped out of the snare because his soul is wounded. Sir. 27:22
Thou canst no more bind him up. <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 27:23">And of a curse there is reconciliationa>: Sir. 27:23
But to disclose the secrets of a friend, leaveth no hope to an unhappy soul. Sir. 27:24
In the sight of thy eyes he will sweeten his mouth, and will admire thy words: but at the last he will writhe his mouth, and on thy words he will lay a stumblingblock. Sir. 27:26
If one cast a stone on high, it will fall upon his own head: and the deceitful stroke will wound the deceitful. Sir. 27:28
He that diggeth a pit, shall fall into it: and he that setteth a stone for his neighbour, shall stumble upon it: and he that layeth a snare for another, shall perish in it. Sir. 27:29
A mischievous counsel shall be rolled back upon the author, and he shall not know from whence it cometh to him. Sir. 27:30
Mockery and reproach are of the proud, and vengeance as a lion shall lie in wait for him. Sir. 27:31
They shall perish in a snare that are delighted with the fall of the just: and sorrow shall consume them before they die. Sir. 27:32
He hath no mercy on a man like himself, and doth he entreat for his own sins? Sir. 28:4
For a passionate man kindleth strife, and a sinful man will trouble his friends, and bring in debate in the midst of them that are at peace. Sir. 28:11
For as the wood of the forest is, so the fire burneth, and as a man's strength is, so shall his anger be, and according to his riches he shall increase his anger. Sir. 28:12
A hasty contention kindleth a fire and a hasty quarrel sheddeth blood and a tongue that beareth witness bringeth death. Sir. 28:13
If thou blow the spark, it shall burn as a fire: and if thou spit upon it, it shall be quenched: both come out of the mouth. Sir. 28:14
The tongue of a third person hath disquieted many, and scattered them from nation to nation. Sir. 28:16
The tongue of a third person hath cast out valiant women, and deprived them of their labours. Sir. 28:19
He that hearkeneth to it, shall never have rest, neither shall he have a friend in whom he may repose. Sir. 28:20
The stroke of a whip maketh a blue mark: but the stroke of the tongue will break the bones. Sir. 28:21
Blessed is he that is defended from a wicked tongue, that hath not passed into the wrath thereof, and that hath not drawn the yoke thereof, and hath not been bound in its bands. Sir. 28:23
For its yoke is a yoke of iron: and its bands are bands of brass. Sir. 28:24
The death thereof is a most evil death: and hell is preferable to it. Sir. 28:25
Its continuance shall not be for a long time, but it shall possess the ways of the unjust: and the just shall not be burnt with its flame. Sir. 28:26
They that forsake God shall fall into it, and it shall burn in them, and shall not be quenched, and it shall be sent upon them as a lion, and as a leopard it shall tear them. Sir. 28:27
Hedge in thy ears with thorns, hear not a wicked tongue, and make doors and bars to thy mouth. Sir. 28:28
Melt down thy gold and silver, and make a balance for thy words, and a just bridle for thy mouth: Sir. 28:29
Many have looked upon a thing lent as a thing found, and have given trouble to them that helped them. Sir. 29:4
Lose thy money for thy brother and thy friend: and hide it not under a stone to be lost. Sir. 29:13
A good man is surety for his neighbour: and he that hath lost shame, will leave him to himself. Sir. 29:18
A sinner attributeth to himself the goods of his surety: and he that is of an unthankful mind will leave him that delivered him. Sir. 29:21
A man is surety for his neighbour: and when he hath lost all shame, he shall forsake him. Sir. 29:22
Evil suretyship hath undone many of good estate, and hath tossed them as a wave of the sea. Sir. 29:23
A sinner that transgresseth the commandment of the Lord, shall fall into an evil suretyship: and he that undertaketh many things, shall fall into judgment. Sir. 29:25
The chief thing for man's life is water and bread, and clothing, and a house to cover shame. Sir. 29:27
Better is the poor man's fare under a roof of boards, than sumptuous cheer abroad in another man's house. Sir. 29:28
It is a miserable life to go as a guest from house to house: for where a man is a stranger, he shall not deal confidently, nor open his mouth. Sir. 29:30
These things are grievous to a man of understanding: the upbraiding of houseroom, and the reproaching of the lender. Sir. 29:34
For he left behind him a defender of his house against his enemies, and one that will requite kindness to his friends. Sir. 30:6
A horse not broken becometh stubborn, and a child left to himself will become headstrong. Sir. 30:8
Bow down his neck while he is young, and beat his sides while he is a child, lest he grow stubborn, and regard thee not, and so be a sorrow of heart to thee. Sir. 30:12
Better is a poor man who is sound, and strong of constitution, than a rich man who is weak and afflicted with evils. Sir. 30:14
Health of the soul in holiness of justice, is better than all gold and silver: and a sound body, than immense revenues. Sir. 30:15
Better is death than a bitter life, and everlasting rest, than continual sickness. Sir. 30:17
Good things that are hidden in a mouth that is shut, are as messes of meat set about a grave. Sir. 30:18
He seeth with his eyes, and groaneth, as an eunuch embracing a virgin, and sighing. Sir. 30:21
The joyfulness of the heart, is the life of a man, and a never failing treasure of holiness: and the joy of a man is length of life. Sir. 30:23
Envy and anger shorten a man's days, and pensiveness will bring old age before the time. Sir. 30:26
A cheerful and good heart is always feasting: for his banquets are prepared with diligence. Sir. 30:27
The thinking beforehand turneth away the understanding, and a grievous sickness maketh the soul sober. Sir. 31:2
Gold is a stumblingblock to them that sacrifice to it: woe to them that eagerly follow after it, and every fool shall perish by it. Sir. 31:7
Art thou set at a great table? be not the first to open thy mouth upon it. Sir. 31:12
Remember that a wicked eye is evil. Sir. 31:14
Be not hasty in a feast. Sir. 31:17
Use as a frugal man the things that are set before thee: lest if thou eatest much, thou be hated. Sir. 31:19
How sufficient is a little wine for a man well taught, and in sleeping thou shalt not be uneasy with it, and thou shalt feel no pain. Sir. 31:22
Sound and wholesome sleep with a moderate man: he shall sleep till morning, and his soul shall be delighted with him. Sir. 31:24
Rebuke not thy neighbour in a banquet of wine: and despise him not in his mirth. Sir. 31:41
That thou mayst rejoice for them, and receive a crown as an ornament of grace, and get the honour of the contribution. Sir. 32:3
A concert of music in a banquet of wine is as a carbuncle set in gold. Sir. 32:7
As a signet of an emerald in a work of gold: so is the melody of music with pleasant and moderate wine. Sir. 32:8
Before a storm goeth lightning: and before shamefacedness goeth favour: and for thy reverence good grace shall come to thee. Sir. 32:14
And do what thou hast a mind, but not in sin or proud speech. Sir. 32:16
He that feareth the Lord, will receive his discipline: and they that will seek him early, shall find a blessing. Sir. 32:18
He that seeketh the law, shall be filled with it: and he that dealeth deceitfully, shall meet with a stumblingblock therein. Sir. 32:19
They that fear the Lord, shall find just judgment, and shall kindle justice as a light. Sir. 32:20
A sinful man will flee reproof, and will find an excuse according to his will. Sir. 32:21
A man of counsel will not neglect understanding, a strange and proud man will not dread fear: Sir. 32:22
Go not in the way of ruin, and thou shalt not stumble against the stones: trust not thyself to a rugged way, lest thou set a stumblingblock to thy soul. Sir. 32:25
A wise man hateth not the commandments and justices, and he shall not be dashed in pieces as a ship in a storm. Sir. 33:2
A man of understanding is faithful to the law of God, and the law is faithful to him. Sir. 33:3
He that cleareth up a question, shall prepare what to say, and so having prayed he shall be heard, and shall keep discipline, and then he shall answer. Sir. 33:4
The heart of a fool is as a wheel of a cart: and his thoughts are like a rolling axletree. Sir. 33:5
A friend that is a mocker, is like a stallion horse: he neigheth under every one that sitteth upon him. Sir. 33:6
Good is set against evil, and life against death: so also is the sinner against a just man. And so look upon all the works of the most High. Two and two, and one against another. Sir. 33:15
Fodder, and a wand, and a burden are for an ass: bread, and correction, and work for a slave. Sir. 33:25
The yoke and the thong bend a stiff neck, and continual labours bow a slave. Sir. 33:27
Torture and fetters are for a malicious slave: send him to work, that he be not idle: Sir. 33:28
If thou have a faithful servant, let him be to thee as thy own soul: treat him as a brother: because in the blood of thy soul thou hast gotten him. Sir. 33:31
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 34:0">¤a> The hopes of a man that is void of understanding are vain and deceitful: and dreams lift up fools. Sir. 34:1
The man that giveth heed to lying visions, is like to him that catcheth at a shadow, and followeth after the wind. Sir. 34:2
The vision of dreams is the resemblance of one thing to another: as when a man's likeness is before the face of a man. Sir. 34:3
And the heart fancieth as that of a woman in travail: except it be a vision sent forth from the most High, set not thy heart upon them. Sir. 34:6
The word of the law shall be fulfilled without a lie, and wisdom shall be made plain in the mouth of the faithful. Sir. 34:8
What doth he know, that hath not been tried? A man that hath much experience, shall think of many things: and he that hath learned many things, shall shew forth understanding. Sir. 34:9
The eyes of the Lord are upon them that fear him, he is their powerful protector, and strong stay, a defence from the heat, and a cover from the sun at noon, Sir. 34:19
A preservation from stumbling, and a help from falling: he raiseth up the soul, and enlighteneth the eyes, and giveth health, and life, and blessing. Sir. 34:20
The offering of him that sacrificeth of a thing wrongfully gotten, is stained, and the mockeries of the unjust are not acceptable. Sir. 34:21
The bread of the needy, is the life of the poor: he that defraudeth them thereof, is a man of blood. Sir. 34:25
So a man that fasteth for his sins, and doth the same again, what doth his humbling himself profit him? who will hear his prayer? Sir. 34:31
It is a wholesome sacrifice to take heed to the commandments, and to depart from all iniquity. Sir. 35:2
And to depart from injustice, is to offer a propitiatory sacrifice for injustices, and a begging of pardon for sins. Sir. 35:3
Give glory to God with a good heart: and diminish not the firstfruits of thy hands. Sir. 35:10
In every gift shew a cheerful countenance, and sanctify thy tithes with joy. Sir. 35:11
Give to the most High according to what he hath given to thee, and with a good eye do according to the ability of thy hands: Sir. 35:12
The Lord will not accept any person against a poor man, and he will hear the prayer of him that is wronged. Sir. 35:16
The mercy of God is beautiful in the time of affliction, as a cloud of rain in the time of drought. Sir. 35:26
A perverse heart will cause grief, and a man of experience will resist it. Sir. 36:22
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 36:23">A woman will receive every mana>: yet one daughter is better than another. Sir. 36:23
The beauty of a woman cheereth the countenance of her husband, and a man desireth nothing more. Sir. 36:24
If she have a tongue that can cure, and likewise mitigate and shew mercy: her husband is not like other men. Sir. 36:25
He that possesseth a good wife, beginneth a possession: she is a help like to himself, and a pillar of rest. Sir. 36:26
Who will trust him that hath no rest, and that lodgeth wheresoever the night taketh him, as a robber well appointed, that skippeth from city to city. Sir. 36:28
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 37:0">¤a> Every friend will say: I also am his friend: but there is a friend, that is only a friend in name. Is not this a grief even to death? Sir. 37:1
But a companion and a friend shall be turned to an enemy. Sir. 37:2
There is a companion who rejoiceth with his friend in his joys, but in the time of trouble, he will be against him. Sir. 37:4
There is a companion who condoleth with his friend for his belly's sake, and he will take up a shield against the enemy. Sir. 37:5
Consult not with him that layeth a snare for thee, and hide thy counsel from them that envy thee. Sir. 37:7
Every counsellor giveth out counsel, but there is one that is a counsellor for himself. Sir. 37:8
Beware of a counsellor. And know before what need he hath: for he will devise to his own mind: Sir. 37:9
Lest he thrust a stake into the ground, and say to thee: Sir. 37:10
Treat not with a man without religion concerning holiness, nor with an unjust man concerning justice, nor with a woman touching her of whom she is jealous, nor with a coward concerning war, nor with a merchant about traffic, nor with a buyer of selling, nor with an envious man of giving thanks, Sir. 37:12
But be continually with a holy man, whomsoever thou shalt know to observe the fear of God, Sir. 37:15
And establish within thyself a heart of good counsel: for there is no other thing of more worth to thee than it. Sir. 37:17
The soul of a holy man discovereth sometimes true things, more than seven watchmen that sit in a high place to watch. Sir. 37:18
A wicked word shall change the heart: out of which four manner of things arise, good and evil, life and death: and the tongue is continually the ruler of them. There is a man that is subtle and a teacher of many, and yet is unprofitable to his own soul. Sir. 37:21
A skilful man hath taught many, and is sweet to his own soul. Sir. 37:22
There is a wise man that is wise to his own soul: and the fruit of his understanding is commendable. Sir. 37:25
A wise man instructeth his own people, and the fruits of his understanding are faithful. Sir. 37:26
A wise man shall be filled with blessings, and they that see shall praise him. Sir. 37:27
The life of a man is in the number of his days: but the days of Israel are innumerable. Sir. 37:28
A wise man shall inherit honour among his people, and his name shall live for ever. Sir. 37:29
The most High hath created medicines out of the earth, and a wise man will not abhor them. Sir. 38:4
Give a sweet savour, and a memorial of fine flour, and make a fat offering, and then give place to the physician. Sir. 38:11
For there is a time when thou must fall into their hands: Sir. 38:13
And for fear of being ill spoken of weep bitterly for a day, and then comfort thyself in thy sadness. Sir. 38:17
And make mourning for him according to his merit for a day, or two, for fear of detraction. Sir. 38:18
The wisdom of <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 38:25">a scribea> cometh by his time of leisure: and he that is less in action, shall receive wisdom. Sir. 38:25
Without these a city is not built. Sir. 38:36
If he continue, he shall leave a name above a thousand: and if he rest, it shall be to his advantage. Sir. 39:15
I will yet meditate that I may declare: for I am filled as with a holy transport. Sir. 39:16
By a voice he saith: Hear me, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 39:17">ye divine offspringa>, and bud forth as the rose planted by the brooks of waters. Sir. 39:17
Give ye a sweet odour as frankincense. Sir. 39:18
Send forth flowers, as the lily, and yield a smell, and bring forth leaves in grace, and praise with canticles, and bless the Lord in his works. Sir. 39:19
At his word the waters stood as a heap: and at the words of his mouth the receptacles of waters: Sir. 39:22
His blessing hath overflowed like a river. Sir. 39:27
And as a flood hath watered the earth; so shall his wrath inherit the nations, that have not sought after him. Sir. 39:28
Even as he turned the waters into a dry land, and the earth was made dry: and his ways were made plain for their journey: so to sinners they are stumblingblocks in his wrath. Sir. 39:29
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 40:0">¤a> Great labour is created for all men, and a heavy yoke is upon the children of Adam from the day of their coming out of their mother's womb, until the day of their burial into the mother of all. Sir. 40:1
From him that sitteth on a glorious throne, unto him that is humbled in earth and ashes: Sir. 40:3
A little and as nothing is his rest, and afterward in sleep, as in the day of keeping watch. Sir. 40:6
The riches of the unjust shall be dried up like a river, and shall pass away with a noise like a great thunder in rain. Sir. 40:13
The offspring of the ungodly shall not bring forth many branches, and make a noise as unclean roots upon the top of a rock. Sir. 40:15
Grace is like a paradise in blessings, and mercy remaineth for ever. Sir. 40:17
The life of a laborer that is content with what he hath, shall be sweet, and in it thou shalt find a treasure. Sir. 40:18
Children, and the building of a city shall establish a name, but a blameless wife shall be counted above them both. Sir. 40:19
The flute and the psaltery make a sweet melody, but a pleasant tongue is above them both. Sir. 40:21
A friend and companion meeting together in season, but above them both is a wife with her husband. Sir. 40:23
Brethren are a help in the time of trouble, but mercy shall deliver more than they. Sir. 40:24
The fear of the Lord is like a paradise of blessing, and they have covered it above all glory. Sir. 40:28
The life of him that looketh toward another man's table is not to be counted a life: for he feedeth his soul with another man's meat. Sir. 40:30
But a man, well instructed and taught, will look to himself. Sir. 40:31
Begging will be sweet in the mouth of the unwise, but in his belly there shall burn a fire. Sir. 40:32
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 41:0">¤a> O death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee to a man that hath peace in his possessions! Sir. 41:1
To a man that is at rest, and whose ways are prosperous in all things, and that is yet able to take meat! Sir. 41:2
Who is in a decrepit age, and that is in care about all things, and to the distrustful that loseth patience! Sir. 41:4
And what shall come upon thee by the good pleasure of the most High? whether ten, or a hundred, or a thousand years. Sir. 41:6
The inheritance of the children of sinners shall perish, and with their posterity shall be a perpetual reproach. Sir. 41:9
Take care of a good name: for this shall continue with thee, more than a thousand treasures precious and great. Sir. 41:15
A good life hath its number of days: but a good name shall continue for ever. Sir. 41:16
My children, keep discipline in peace: for wisdom that is hid, and a treasure that is not seen, what profit is there in them both? Sir. 41:17
Wherefore <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 41:19">have a shamea> of these things I am now going to speak of. Sir. 41:19
Be ashamed of fornication before father and mother: and of a lie before a governor and a man in power: Sir. 41:21
Of an offence before a prince, and a judge: of iniquity before a congregation and a people: Sir. 41:22
Of injustice before a companion and friend: and in regard to the place where thou dwellest, Sir. 41:23
Of silence before them that salute thee: of looking upon a harlot: and of turning away thy face from thy kinsman. Sir. 41:25
Turn not away thy face from thy neighbour, and of taking away a portion and not restoring. Sir. 41:26
Of the corruption of buying, and of merchants, and of much correction of children, and to make the side of a wicked slave to bleed. Sir. 42:5
Sure keeping is good over a wicked wife. Sir. 42:6
In her virginity, lest she should be corrupted, and be found with child in her father's house: and having a husband, lest she should misbehave herself, or at the least become barren. Sir. 42:10
Keep a sure watch over a shameless daughter: lest at anytime she make thee become a laughingstock to thy enemies, and a byword in the city, and a reproach among the people, and she make thee ashamed before all the multitude. Sir. 42:11
For from garments cometh a moth, and from a woman the iniquity of a man. Sir. 42:13
For <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=xsir 42:14">better is the iniquitya> of a man, than a woman doing a good turn, and a woman bringing shame and reproach. Sir. 42:14
O how desirable are all his works, and what we can know is but as a spark! Sir. 42:23
At noon he burneth the earth, and who can abide his burning heat? As one keeping a furnace in the works of heat: Sir. 43:3
And the moon in all in her season, is for a declaration of times and a sign of the world. Sir. 43:6
From the moon is the sign of the festival day, a light that decreaseth in her perfection. Sir. 43:7
The cold north wind bloweth, and the water is congealed into crystal; upon every gathering together of waters it shall rest, and shall clothe the waters as a breastplate. Sir. 43:22
A present remedy of all is the speedy coming of a cloud, and a dew that meeteth it, by the heat that cometh, shall overpower it. Sir. 43:24
There are great and wonderful works: a variety of beasts, and of all living things, and the monstrous creatures of whales. Sir. 43:27
There are many things hidden from us that are greater than these: for we have seen but a few of his works. Sir. 43:36
They that were born of them have left a name behind them, that their praises might be related: Sir. 44:8
Their posterity are a holy inheritance, and their seed hath stood in the covenants. Sir. 44:12
Noe was found perfect, just, and in the time of wrath he was made a reconciliation. Sir. 44:17
Therefore was there a remnant left to the earth, when the flood came. Sir. 44:18
Abraham was the great father of a multitude of nations, and there was not found the like to him in glory, who kept the law of the most High, and was in covenant with him. Sir. 44:20
For he heard him, and his voice, and brought him into a cloud. Sir. 45:5

Teth. Her filthiness is on her feet, and she hath not remembered her end; she is wonderfully cast down, not having a comforter: behold, O Lord, my affliction, because the enemy is lifted up. Lam. 1:9
Lamed. O all ye that pass by the way, attend, and see if there be any sorrow like to my sorrow: for he hath made a vintage of me, as the Lord spoke in the day of his fierce anger. Lam. 1:12
Mem. From above he hath sent fire into my bones, and hath chastised me: he hath spread a net for my feet, he hath turned me back: he hath made me desolate, wasted with sorrow all the day long. Lam. 1:13
Nun. The yoke of my iniquities hath watched: they are folded together in his hand, and put upon my neck: my strength is weakened: the Lord hath delivered me into a hand, out of which I am not able to rise. Lam. 1:14
Phe. Sion hath spread forth her hands, there is none to comfort her: the Lord hath commanded against Jacob, his enemies are round about him: Jerusalem is as a menstruous woman among them. Lam. 1:17
Sin. They have heard that I sigh, and there is none to comfort me: all my enemies have heard of my evil, they have rejoiced that thou hast done it: thou hast brought a day of consolation, and they shall be like unto me. Lam. 1:21
Ghimel. He hath broken in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy: and he hath kindled in Jacob as it were a flaming fire devouring round about. Lam. 2:3
Vau. And he hath destroyed his tent as a garden, he hath thrown down his tabernacle: the Lord hath caused feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Sion: and hath delivered up king and priest to reproach, and to the indignation of his wrath. Lam. 2:6
Zain. The Lord hath cast off his altar, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=la 2:7">he hath cursed his sanctuarya>: he hath delivered the walls of the towers thereof into the hand of the enemy: they have made a noise in the house of the Lord, as in the day of a solemn feast. Lam. 2:7
Sade. Their heart cried to the Lord upon the walls of the daughter of Sion: Let tears run down like a torrent day and night: give thyself no rest, and let not the apple of thy eye cease. Lam. 2:18
Res. Behold, O Lord, and consider whom thou hast thus dealt with: shall women then eat their own fruit, their children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord? Lam. 2:20
Thau. Thou hast called as to a festival, those that should terrify me round about, and there was none in the day of the wrath of the Lord that escaped and was left: those that I brought up, and nourished, my enemy hath consumed them. Lam. 2:22
Daleth. He is become to me as a bear lying in wait: as a lion in secret places. Lam. 3:10

And he hath delivered them up to be under the hand of all the kings that are round about us, to be a reproach, and desolation among all the people, among whom the Lord hath scattered us. Bar. 2:4

Let thy wrath be turned away from us: for we are left a few among the nations where thou hast scattered us. Bar. 2:13
Saying: If you will not hear my voice, this great multitude shall be turned into a very small number among the nations, where I will scatter them: Bar. 2:29
For I know that the people will not hear me, for they are a people of a stiff neck: but they shall turn to their heart in the land of their captivity: Bar. 2:30
And they shall know that I am the Lord their God: and I will give them a heart, and they shall understand: and ears, and they shall hear. Bar. 2:31
Hear, O Lord, and have mercy, for thou art a merciful God, and have pity on us: for we have sinned before thee. Bar. 3:2

And as if it were for a maiden that loveth to go gay: so do they take gold and make them up. Bar. 6:8

This holdeth a sceptre as a man, as a judge of the country, but cannot put to death one that offendeth him. Bar. 6:13
And this hath in his hand a sword, or an axe, but cannot save himself from war, or from robbers, whereby be it known to you, that they are not gods. Bar. 6:14
Therefore fear them not. For as a vessel that a man uses when it is broken becometh useless, even so are their gods: Bar. 6:15

Therefore if they fall to the ground, they rise not up again of themselves, nor if a man set them upright, will they stand by themselves, but their gifts shall be set before them, as to the dead. Bar. 6:26
And whether it be evil that one doth unto them, or good, they are not able to recompense it: neither can they set up a king, nor put him down: Bar. 6:33
In like manner they can neither give riches, nor requite evil. If a man make a vow to them, and perform it not: they cannot require it. Bar. 6:34
They cannot deliver a man from death, nor save the weak from the mighty. Bar. 6:35
They cannot restore the blind man to his sight: nor deliver a man from distress. Bar. 6:36
They cannot set up a king over the land, nor give rain to men. Bar. 6:52
And they cannot withstand a king and war. How then can it be supposed, or admitted, that they are gods? Bar. 6:55
Therefore it is better to be a king that sheweth his power: or else a profitable vessel in the house, with which the owner thereof will be well satisfied: or a door in the house, to keep things safe that are therein, than such false gods. Bar. 6:58
Beasts are better than they, which can fly under a covert, and help themselves. Bar. 6:67
For as a scarecrow in a garden of cucumbers keepeth nothing, so are their gods of wood, and of silver, and laid over with gold. Bar. 6:69
They are no better than a white thorn in a garden, upon which every bird sitteth. In like manner also their gods of wood, and laid over with gold, and with silver, are like to a dead body cast forth in the dark. Bar. 6:70
By the purple also and the scarlet which are motheaten upon them, you shall know that they are not gods. And they themselves at last are consumed, and shall be a reproach in the country. Bar. 6:71
And I saw, and behold a whirlwind came out of the north: and a great cloud, and a fire infolding it, and brightness was about it: and out of the midst thereof, that is, out of the midst of the fire, as it were the resemblance of amber: Ezec. 1:4
And in the midst thereof the likeness of four <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 1:5">living creaturesa>: and this was their appearance: there was the likeness of a man in them. Ezec. 1:5
Their feet were straight feet, and the sole of their foot was like the sole of a calf's foot, and they sparkled like the appearance of glowing brass. Ezec. 1:7
And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides: and they had faces, and wings on the four sides, Ezec. 1:8
And as for the likeness of their faces: there was the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right side of all the four: and the face of an ox, on the left side of all the four: and the face of an eagle over all the four. Ezec. 1:10
And as for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like that of burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps. This was the vision running to and fro in the midst of the living creatures, a bright fire, and lightning going forth from the fire. Ezec. 1:13
And the appearance of the wheels, and the work of them was like the appearance of the sea: and the four had all one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the midst of a wheel. Ezec. 1:16
The wheels had also a size, and a height, and a dreadful appearance: and the whole body was full of eyes round about all the four. Ezec. 1:18
And I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of many waters, as it were the voice of the most high God: when they walked, it was like the voice of a multitude, like the noise of an army, and when they stood, their wings were let down. Ezec. 1:24
For when a voice came from above the firmament, that was over their heads, they stood, and let down their wings. Ezec. 1:25
And above the firmament that was over their heads, was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of the sapphire stone, and upon the likeness of the throne, was the likeness of the appearance of a man above upon it. Ezec. 1:26
As the appearance of the rainbow when it is in a cloud on a rainy day: this was the appearance of the brightness round about. Ezec. 1:28
And saying: Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious people, that hath revolted from me, they, and their fathers, have transgressed my covenant even unto this day. Ezec. 2:3
And they to whom I send thee are children of a hard face, and of an obstinate heart: and thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Ezec. 2:4
If so be they at least will hear, and if so be they will forbear, for they are a provoking house: and they shall know that there hath been a prophet in the midst of them. Ezec. 2:5
And thou, O son of man, fear not, neither be thou afraid of their words: for thou art among unbelievers and destroyers, and thou dwellest with scorpions. Fear not their words, neither be thou dismayed at their looks: for they are a provoking house. Ezec. 2:6
And I looked, and behold, a hand was sent to me, wherein was a book rolled up: Ezec. 2:9
For thou art not sent to a people of a profound speech, and of an unknown tongue, but to the house of Israel: Ezec. 3:5
Nor to many nations of a strange speech, and of an unknown tongue, whose words thou canst not understand: and if thou wert sent to them, they would hearken to thee. Ezec. 3:6
But the house of Israel will not hearken to thee: because they will not hearken to me: for all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and an obstinate heart. Ezec. 3:7
I have made thy face like an adamant and like flint: fear them not, neither be thou dismayed at their presence: for they are a provoking house. Ezec. 3:9
And the spirit took me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great commotion, saying: Blessed be the glory of the Lord, from his place. Ezec. 3:12
The noise of the wings of the living creatures striking one against another, and the noise of the wheels following the living creatures, and the noise of a great commotion. Ezec. 3:13
Son of man, I have made thee a watchman to the house of Israel: and thou shalt hear the word out of my mouth, and shalt tell it them from me. Ezec. 3:17
Moreover if the just man shall turn away from his justice, and shall commit iniquity: I will lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die, because thou hast not given him warning: he shall die in his sin, and his justices which he hath done, shall not be remembered: but I will require his blood at thy hand. Ezec. 3:20
And I will make thy tongue stick fast to the roof of thy mouth, and thou shalt be dumb, and not as a man that reproveth: because they are a provoking house. Ezec. 3:26
But when I shall speak to thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: He that heareth, let him hear: and he that forbeareth, let him forbear: for they are a provoking house. Ezec. 3:27
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 4:0">¤a> And thou, O son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee: and draw upon it the plan of the city of Jerusalem. Ezec. 4:1
And lay siege against it, and build forts, and cast up a mount, and set a camp against it, and place battering rams round about it. Ezec. 4:2
And take unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face resolutely against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it: it is a sign to the house of Israel. Ezec. 4:3
And when thou hast accomplished this, thou shalt sleep again upon thy right side, and thou shalt take upon thee the iniquity of the house of Juda forty days: a day for a year, yea, a day for a year I have appointed to thee. Ezec. 4:6
And thy meat that thou shalt eat, shall be in weight twenty staters a day: from time to time thou shalt eat it. Ezec. 4:10
And thou shalt drink water by measure, the sixth part of a <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 4:11">hina>: from time to time thou shalt drink it, Ezec. 4:11
And thou shalt eat it as barley bread baked under the ashes: and thou shalt cover it, in their sight, with the dung that cometh out of a man. Ezec. 4:12
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 5:0">¤a> And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp knife that shaveth the hair: and cause it to pass over thy head, and over thy beard: and take thee a balance to weigh in, and divide the hair. Ezec. 5:1
A third part thou shalt burn with fire in the midst of the city, according to the fulfilling of the days of the siege: and thou shalt take a third part, and cut it in pieces with the knife all round about: and the other third part thou shalt scatter in the wind, and I will draw out the sword after them. Ezec. 5:2
And thou shalt take thereof a small number: and shalt bind them in the skirt of thy cloak. Ezec. 5:3
And thou shalt take of them again, and shalt cast them in the midst of the fire, and shalt burn them with fire: and out of it shall come forth a fire into all the house of Israel. Ezec. 5:4
A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and shall be consumed with famine in the midst of thee: and a third part of thee shall fall by the sword round about thee: and a third part of thee will I scatter into every wind, and I will draw out a sword after them. Ezec. 5:12
And I will make thee desolate, and a reproach among the nations that are round about thee, in the sight of every one that passeth by. Ezec. 5:14
And thou shalt be a reproach, and a scoff, an example, and an astonishment amongst the nations that are round about thee, when I shall have executed judgments in thee in anger, and in indignation, and in wrathful rebukes. Ezec. 5:15
And they that are saved of you shall remember me amongst the nations, to which they are carried captives: because I have broken their heart that was faithless, and revolted from me: and their eyes that went a fornicating after their idols: and they shall be displeased with themselves because of the evils which they have committed in all their abominations. Ezec. 6:9
Iniquity is risen up into a rod of impiety: nothing of them shall remain, nor of their people, nor of the noise of them: and there shall be no rest among them. Ezec. 7:11
Their silver shall be cast forth, and their gold shall become a dunghill. Their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord. They shall not satisfy their soul, and their bellies shall not be filled: because it hath been the stumblingblock of their iniquity. Ezec. 7:19
And I will give it into the hands of strangers for spoil, and to the wicked of the earth for a prey, and they shall defile it. Ezec. 7:21
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 7:23">Make a shutting upa>: for the land is full of the judgment of blood, and the city is full of iniquity. Ezec. 7:23
Trouble shall come upon trouble, and rumour upon rumour, and they shall seek a vision of the prophet, and the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients. Ezec. 7:26
And I saw, and behold a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins, and downward, fire: and from his loins, and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the appearance of amber. Ezec. 8:2
And the likeness of a hand was put forth and took me by a lock of my head: and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the vision of God into Jerusalem, near the inner gate, that looked toward the north, where was set the idol of jealousy to provoke to jealousy. Ezec. 8:3
And he brought me in to the door of the court: and I saw, and behold a hole in the wall. Ezec. 8:7
And he said to me: Son of man, dig in the wall, and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door. Ezec. 8:8
And seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel, and Jezonias the son of Saaphan stood in the midst of them, that stood before the pictures: and every one had a censer in his hand: and a cloud of smoke went up from the incense. Ezec. 8:11
And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: is this a light thing to the house of Juda, that they should commit these abominations which they have committed here: because they have filled the land with iniquity, and have turned to provoke me to anger? and behold they put a branch to their nose. Ezec. 8:17
Therefore I also will deal with them in my wrath: my eye shall not spare them, neither will I shew mercy: and when they shall cry to my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them. Ezec. 8:18
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 9:0">¤a> And he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying: The visitations of the city are at hand, and every one hath a destroying weapon in his hand. Ezec. 9:1
And behold six men came from the way of the upper gate, which looketh to the north: and each one had his weapon of destruction in his hand: and there was one man in the midst of them clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn at his reins: and they went in, and stood by the brazen altar. Ezec. 9:2
And the glory of the Lord of Israel went up from the cherub, upon which he was, to the threshold of the house: and he called to the man that was clothed with linen, and had a writer's inkhorn at his loins. Ezec. 9:3
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 10:0">¤a> And I saw and behold in the firmament that was over the heads of the cherubims, there appeared over them as it were the sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne. Ezec. 10:1
And the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court. Ezec. 10:3
And there appeared in the cherubims the likeness of a man's hand under their wings. Ezec. 10:8
And as to their appearance, all four were alike: as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel. Ezec. 10:10
And every one had four faces: one face was the face of a cherub, and the second face, the face of a man: and in the third was the face of a lion: and in the fourth the face of an eagle. Ezec. 10:14
Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings: and the likeness of a man's hand was under their wings. Ezec. 10:21
And he said to me: Son of man, these are the men that study iniquity, and frame a wicked counsel in this city, Ezec. 11:2
You have killed a great many in this city, and you have filled the streets thereof with the slain. Ezec. 11:6
This shall not be as a caldron to you, and you shall not be as flesh in the midst thereof: I will judge you in the borders of Israel. Ezec. 11:11
And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pheltias the son of Banaias died: and I fell down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice: and said: Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God: wilt thou make an end of all the remnant of Israel? Ezec. 11:13
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because I have removed them far off among the Gentiles, and because I have scattered them among the countries: I will be to them a little sanctuary in the countries whither they are come. Ezec. 11:16
And I will give them one heart, and will put a new spirit in their bowels: and I will take away the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh: Ezec. 11:19
Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a provoking house: who have eyes to see, and see not: and ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a provoking house. Ezec. 12:2
Thou, therefore, O son of man, prepare thee all necessaries for removing, and remove by day in their sight: and thou shalt remove out of thy place to another place in their sight, if so be they will regard it: for they are a provoking house. Ezec. 12:3
Dig thee a way through the wall before their eyes: and thou shalt go forth through it. Ezec. 12:5
In their sight thou shalt be carried out upon men's shoulders, thou shalt be carried out in the dark: thou shalt cover thy face, and shalt not see the ground: for I have set thee for a sign of things to come to the house of Israel. Ezec. 12:6
Say: I am a sign of things to come to you: as I have done, so shall it be done to them: they shall be removed from their dwellings, and go into captivity. Ezec. 12:11
And I will leave a few men of them from the sword, and from the famine, and from the pestilence: that they may declare all their wicked deeds among the nations whither they shall go: and they shall know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 12:16
Say to them therefore: Thus saith the Lord God: I will make this proverb to cease, neither shall it be any more a common saying in Israel: and tell them that the days are at hand, and the effect of every vision. Ezec. 12:23
You have not gone up to face the enemy, nor have you set up a wall for the house of Israel, to stand in battle in the day of the Lord. Ezec. 13:5
Have you not seen a vain vision and spoken a lying divination: and you say: The Lord saith: whereas I have not spoken. Ezec. 13:7
Because they have deceived my people, saying: Peace, and there is no peace: and the people built up a wall, and they daubed it with dirt without straw. Ezec. 13:10
Say to them that daub without tempering, that it shall fall: for there shall be an overflowing shower, and I will cause great hailstones to fall violently from above, and a stormy wind to throw it down. Ezec. 13:11
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Lo, I will cause a stormy wind to break forth in my indignation, and there shall be an overflowing shower in my anger: and great hailstones in my wrath to consume. Ezec. 13:13
And they <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 13:19">violated mea> among my people, for a handful of barley, and a piece of bread, to kill souls which should not die, and to save souls alive which should not live, telling lies to my people that believe lies. Ezec. 13:19
And I will tear your pillows, and will deliver my people out of your hand, neither shall they be any more in your hands to be a prey: and you shall know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 13:21
And I will set my face against that man, and will make him an example, and a proverb, and will cut him off from the midst of my people: and you shall know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 14:8
And when <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 14:9">the prophet shall erra>, and speak a word: I the Lord have deceived that prophet: and I will stretch forth my hand upon him, and will cut him off from the midst of my people Israel. Ezec. 14:9
Son of man, when a land shall sin against me, so as to transgress grievously, I will stretch forth my hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof: and I will send famine upon it, and will destroy man and beast out of it. Ezec. 14:13
Shall wood be taken of it, to do any work, or shall a pin be made of it for any vessel to hang thereon? Ezec. 15:3
And I shall have made their land a wilderness, and desolate, because they have been transgressors, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 15:8
And thou shalt say: Thus saith the Lord God to Jerusalem: Thy root, and thy nativity is of the land of Chanaan, thy father was an Amorrhite, and thy mother a Cethite. Ezec. 16:3
And I passed by thee, and saw thee: and behold thy time was the time of lovers: and I spread my garment over thee, and covered thy ignominy, and I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine. Ezec. 16:8
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 16:11">I decked thee also with ornamentsa>, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck. Ezec. 16:11
And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head. Ezec. 16:12
And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen. Ezec. 16:13
And my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 16:19
That thou didst also build thee a common stew, and madest thee a brothel house in every street. Ezec. 16:24
At every head of the way thou hast set up a sign of thy prostitution: and hast made thy beauty to be abominable: and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and hast multiplied thy fornications. Ezec. 16:25
Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute? Ezec. 16:30
Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price, Ezec. 16:31
And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords. Ezec. 16:40
Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter. Ezec. 16:44
Thou art thy mother's daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite. Ezec. 16:45
But neither hast thou walked in their ways, nor hast thou done a little less than they according to their wickednesses: thou hast done almost more wicked things than they in all thy ways. Ezec. 16:47
Before thy malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides. Ezec. 16:57
Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable to the house of Israel, Ezec. 17:2
And say: Thus saith the Lord God; <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 17:3">A large eaglea> with great wings, long-limbed, full of feathers, and of variety, came to Libanus, and took away the marrow of the cedar. Ezec. 17:3
He cropped off the top of the twigs thereof: and carried it away into the land of <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 17:4">Chanaana>, and he set it in a city of merchants. Ezec. 17:4
And he took <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 17:5">of the seed of the landa>, and put it in the ground for seed, that it might take a firm root over many waters: he planted it on the surface of the earth. Ezec. 17:5
And it sprung up and grew into a spreading vine of low stature, and the branches thereof looked <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 17:6">towards hima>: and the roots thereof were under him. So it became a vine, and grew into branches, and shot forth sprigs. Ezec. 17:6
It was planted in a good ground upon many waters, that it might bring forth branches, and bear fruit, that it might become a large vine. Ezec. 17:8
Say thou: Thus saith the Lord God: Shall it prosper then? shall he not pull up the roots thereof, and strip off its fruit, and dry up all the branches it hath shot forth, and make it wither: and this without a strong arm, or many people to pluck it up by the root? Ezec. 17:9
And he shall take one of the king's seed, and make a covenant with him, and take an oath of him. Yea, and he shall take away the mighty men of the land, Ezec. 17:13
That it may be a low kingdom and not lift itself up, but keep his covenant and observe it. Ezec. 17:14
And not with a great army, nor with much people shall Pharao fight against him: when he shall cast up mounts, and build forts, to cut off many souls. Ezec. 17:17
Thus saith the Lord God: I myself will take <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 17:22">of the marrow of the high cedara>, and will set it: I will crop off a tender twig from the top of the branches thereof, and I will plant it on a mountain high and eminent. Ezec. 17:22
On the high mountains of Israel will I plant it, and it shall shoot forth into branches and shall bear fruit, and it shall become a great cedar: and all birds shall dwell under it, and every fowl shall make its nest under the shadow of the branches thereof. Ezec. 17:23
That you use among you this parable as a proverb in the land of Israel, saying: The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the teeth of the children are set on edge. Ezec. 18:2
As I live, saith the Lord God, this parable shall be no more to you a proverb in Israel. Ezec. 18:3
And if a man be just, and do judgment and justice, Ezec. 18:5
And hath <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 18:6">not eaten upon the mountainsa>, nor lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel: and hath not defiled his neighbour's wife, nor come near to a menstruous woman: Ezec. 18:6
And hath not wronged any man: but hath restored the pledge to the debtor, hath taken nothing away by violence: hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment: Ezec. 18:7
And if he beget a son that is a robber, a shedder of blood, and that hath done some one of these things: Ezec. 18:10
That giveth upon usury, and that taketh an increase: shall such a one live? he shall not live. Seeing he hath done all these detestable things, he shall surely die, his blood shall be upon him. Ezec. 18:13
But if he beget a son, who, seeing all his father's sins, which he hath done, is afraid, and shall not do the like to them: Ezec. 18:14
And hath not grieved any man, nor withholden the pledge, nor taken away with violence, but hath given his bread to the hungry, and covered the naked with a garment: Ezec. 18:16
Is it my will that a sinner should die, saith the Lord God, and not that he should be converted from his ways, and live? Ezec. 18:23
Cast away from you all your transgressions, by which you have transgressed, and make to yourselves a new heart, and a new spirit: and why will you die, O house of Israel? Ezec. 18:31
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 19:0">¤a> Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel, Ezec. 19:1
And she brought out <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 19:3">one of her whelpsa>, and he became a lion: and he learned to catch the prey, and to devour men. Ezec. 19:3
But she seeing herself weakened, and that her hope was lost, took <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 19:5">one of her young lionsa>, and set him up for a lion. Ezec. 19:5
And he went up and down among the lions, and became a lion: and he learned to catch the prey, and to devour men. Ezec. 19:6
And they put him into a cage, they brought him in chains to the king of Babylon: and they cast him into prison, that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel. Ezec. 19:9
Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood planted by the water: her fruit and her branches have grown out of many waters. Ezec. 19:10
And now she is transplanted into the desert, in a land not passable, and dry. Ezec. 19:13
And a fire is gone out from a rod of her branches, which hath devoured her fruit: so that she now hath no strong rod, to be a sceptre of rulers. This is a lamentation, and it shall be for a lamentation. Ezec. 19:14
In that day I lifted up my hand for them to bring them out of the land of Egypt, into a land which I had provided for them, flowing with milk and honey, which excelled amongst all lands. Ezec. 20:6
And I gave them my statutes, and I shewed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them. Ezec. 20:11
Moreover I gave them also my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them: and that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them. Ezec. 20:12
But the house of Israel provoked me in the desert: they walked not in my statutes, and they cast away my judgments, which if a man do he shall live in them: and they grievously violated my sabbaths. I said therefore that I would pour out my indignation upon them in the desert, and would consume them. Ezec. 20:13
And sanctify my sabbaths, that they may be a sign between me and you: and that you may know that I am the Lord your God. Ezec. 20:20
But their children provoked me, they walked not in my commandments, nor observed my judgments to do them: which if a man do, he shall live in them: and they violated my sabbaths: and I threatened to pour out my indignation upon them, and to accomplish my wrath in them in the desert. Ezec. 20:21
As I live, saith the Lord God, I will reign over you with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out. Ezec. 20:33
And I will bring you out from the people, and I will gather you out of the countries, in which you are scattered, I will reign over you with a strong hand and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out. Ezec. 20:34
And say to the south forest: Hear the word of the Lord: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will kindle a fire in thee, and will burn in thee every green tree, and every dry tree: the flame of the fire shall not be quenched: and every face shall be burned in it, from the south even to the north. Ezec. 20:47
Thou therefore, O son of man, prophesy, and strike thy hands together, and let the sword be doubled, and let the sword of the slain be tripled: this is the sword of a great slaughter, that maketh them stand amazed, Ezec. 21:14
Be thou sharpened, go to the right hand, or to the left, which way soever thou hast a mind to set thy face. Ezec. 21:16
Thou shalt make a way that the sword may come to Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and to Juda unto Jerusalem the strong city. Ezec. 21:20
On his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in slaughter, to lift up the voice in howling, to set engines against the gates, to cast up a mount, to build forts. Ezec. 21:22
Thou art become guilty in thy blood which thou hast shed: and thou art defiled in thy idols which thou hast made: and thou hast made thy days to draw near, and hast brought on the time of thy years: therefore have I made thee a reproach to the Gentiles, and a mockery to all countries. Ezec. 22:4
As they gather silver, and brass, and tin, and iron, and lead in the midst of the furnace: that I may kindle a fire in it to melt it: so will I gather you together in my fury and in my wrath, and will take my rest, and I will melt you down. Ezec. 22:20
Son of man, say to her: Thou art a land that is unclean, and not rained upon in the day of wrath. Ezec. 22:24
There is a conspiracy of prophets in the midst thereof: like a lion that roareth and catcheth the prey, they have devoured souls, they have taken riches and hire, they have made many widows in the midst thereof. Ezec. 22:25
And I sought among them for a man that might set up a hedge, and stand in the gap before me in favour of the land, that I might not destroy it: and I found none. Ezec. 22:30
And they shall come upon thee well appointed with chariot and wheel, a multitude of people: they shall be armed against thee on every side with breastplate, and buckler, and helmet: and I will set judgment before them, and they shall judge thee by their judgments. Ezec. 23:24
They sent for men coming from afar, to whom they had sent a messenger: and behold they came: for whom thou didst wash thyself, and didst paint thy eyes, and wast adorned with women's ornaments. Ezec. 23:40
Thou sattest on a very fine bed, and a table was decked before thee: whereupon thou didst set my incense, and my ointment. Ezec. 23:41
And there was in her the voice of a multitude rejoicing: and to some that were brought of the multitude of men, and that came from the desert, they put bracelets on their hands, and beautiful crowns on their heads. Ezec. 23:42
And they went in to her, as to a harlot: so went they in unto Oolla, and Ooliba, wicked women. Ezec. 23:44
For thus saith the Lord God: Bring a multitude upon them, and deliver them over to tumult and rapine: Ezec. 23:46
And thou shalt speak by a figure a parable to the provoking house, and say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Set on a pot, set it on, I say, and put water in it. Ezec. 24:3
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Woe to the bloody city, of which I will make a great bonfire. Ezec. 24:9
Son of man, behold I take from thee the desire of thy eyes with a stroke, and thou shall not lament, nor weep; neither shall thy tears run down. Ezec. 24:16
And Ezechiel shall be unto you for a sign of things to come: according to all that he hath done, so shall you do, when this shall come to pass: and you shall know that I am the Lord God. Ezec. 24:24
In that day, I say, shall thy mouth be opened to him that hath escaped, and thou shalt speak, and shalt be silent no more: and thou shalt be unto them for a sign of things to come, and you shall know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 24:27
And I will make <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 25:5">Rabbatha> a stable for camels, and the children of Ammon a couching place for flocks: and you shall know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 25:5
And they shall break down the walls of Tyre, and destroy the towers thereof: and I will scrape her dust from her, and make her like a smooth rock. Ezec. 26:4
She shall be a drying place for nets in the midst of the sea, because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God: and she shall be a spoil to the nations. Ezec. 26:5
Thy daughters that are in the field, he shall kill with the sword: and he shall compass thee with forts, and shall cast up a mount round about: and he shall lift up the buckler against thee. Ezec. 26:8
By reason of the multitude of his horses, their dust shall cover thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and wheels, and chariots, when they shall go in at thy gates, as by the entrance of a city that is destroyed. Ezec. 26:10

And they shall take up a mournful song for thee, and shall lament thee: What city is like Tyre, which is become silent in the midst of the sea? Ezec. 27:32

Wilt thou yet say before them that slay thee: I am God; whereas thou art a man, and not God, in the hand of them that slay thee? Ezec. 28:9
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyre: Ezec. 28:11
Thou <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 28:14">a cherub stretched outa>, and protecting, and I set thee in the holy mountain of God, thou hast walked in the midst of the stones of fire. Ezec. 28:14

In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain: upon which there was as the building of a city, bending towards the south. Ezec. 40:2
And he brought me in thither, and behold a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed in his hand, and he stood in the gate. Ezec. 40:3
And behold there was a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits and a handbreadth: and he measured the breadth of the building one reed, and the height one reed. Ezec. 40:5
And he brought me into the outward court, and behold <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 40:17">there were chambersa>, and a pavement of stone in the court round about: thirty chambers encompassed the pavement. Ezec. 40:17

And the windows thereof, and the porch, and the gravings according to the measure of the gate that looked to the east, and they went up to it by seven steps, and a porch was before it. Ezec. 40:22
And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate of the north, and that of the east: and he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits. Ezec. 40:23
And there were seven steps to go up to it: and a porch before the doors thereof: and there were graven palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side in the front thereof. Ezec. 40:26
And there was a gate of the inner court towards the south: and he measured from gate to gate towards the south, a hundred cubits. Ezec. 40:27
And at every chamber was a door in the forefronts of the gates: there they washed the holocaust. Ezec. 40:38
And the four tables for the holocausts were made of square stones: one cubit and a half long, and one cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high: to lay the vessels upon, in which the holocaust and the victim is slain. Ezec. 40:42
And he measured the court a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad foursquare: and the altar that was before the face of the temple. Ezec. 40:47
And there was a broad passage round about, going up by winding stairs, and it led into the upper loft of the temple all round: therefore was the temple broader in the higher parts: and so from the lower parts they went to the higher by the midst. Ezec. 41:7
And I saw in the house the height round about, the foundations of the side chambers which were the measure of a reed the space of six cubits: Ezec. 41:8
And he measured the length of the house, a hundred cubits: and the separate building, and the walls thereof, a hundred cubits in length. Ezec. 41:13
And the breadth before the face of the house, and of the separate place toward the east, a hundred cubits. Ezec. 41:14
And he measured the length of the building over against it, which was separated at the back of it: and the galleries on both sides a hundred cubits: and the inner temple, and the porches of the court. Ezec. 41:15
And there were cherubims and palm trees wrought, so that a palm tree was between a cherub and a cherub, and every cherub had two faces. Ezec. 41:18
The face of a man was toward the palm tree on one side, and the face of a lion was toward the palm tree on the other side: set forth through all the house round about. Ezec. 41:19
In the face of the north door was the length of a hundred cubits, and the breadth of fifty cubits. Ezec. 42:2
Over against the twenty cubits of the inner court, and over against the pavement of the outward court that was paved with stone, where there was a gallery joined to a triple gallery. Ezec. 42:3
And before the chambers was a walk ten cubits broad, looking to the inner parts of a way of one cubit. And their doors were toward the north. Ezec. 42:4
For the length of the chambers of the outward court was fifty cubits: and the length before the face of the temple, a hundred cubits. Ezec. 42:8
According to the doors of the chambers that were towards the south: there was a door in the head of the way, which way was before the porch, separated towards the east as one entereth in. Ezec. 42:12
And he said to me: The chambers of the north, and the chambers of the south, which are before the separate building: they are holy chambers, in which the priests shall eat, that approach to the Lord into the holy of holies: there they shall lay the most holy things, and the offering for sin, and for trespass: for it is a holy place.

By the four winds he measured the wall thereof on every side round about, five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits broad, making a separation between the sanctuary and the place of the people. Ezec. 42:20
They who have set their threshold by my threshold, and their posts by my posts: and there was but a wall between me, and them: and they profaned my holy name by the abominations which they committed: for which reason I consumed them in my wrath. Ezec. 43:8
And these are the measures of the altar by the truest cubit, which is a cubit and a handbreadth: the bottom thereof was a cubit, and the breadth a cubit: and the border thereof unto its edge, and round about, one handbreadth: and this was the trench of the altar. Ezec. 43:13
And the brim was fourteen cubits long, and fourteen cubits broad in the four corners thereof: and the crown round about it was half a cubit, and the bottom of it one cubit round about: and its steps turned toward the east. Ezec. 43:17
And thou shalt give to the priests, and the Levites, that are of the race of Sadoc, who approach to me, saith the Lord God, to offer to me a calf of the herd for sin. Ezec. 43:19
And thou shalt take the calf, that is offered for sin: and thou shalt burn him in a separate place of the house without the sanctuary. Ezec. 43:21
And in the second day thou shalt offer a he goat without blemish for sin: and they shall expiate the altar, as they expiated it with the calf. Ezec. 43:22
And when thou shalt have made an end of the expiation thereof, thou shalt offer a calf of the herd without blemish, and a ram of the flock without blemish. Ezec. 43:23
And thou shalt offer them in the sight of the Lord, and the priests shall put salt upon them, and shall offer them a holocaust to the Lord. Ezec. 43:24
Seven days shalt thou offer a he goat for sin daily: they shall offer also a calf of the herd, and a ram of the flock without blemish. Ezec. 43:25
Because they ministered to them before their idols, and were a stumblingblock of iniquity to the house of Israel: therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, saith the Lord God, and they shall bear their iniquity: Ezec. 44:12
Neither shall they take to wife a widow, nor one that is divorced, but they shall take virgins of the seed of the house of Israel: but they may take a widow also, that is, the widow of a priest. Ezec. 44:22
And when there shall be a controversy, they shall stand in my judgments, and shall judge: they shall keep my laws, and my ordinances in all my solemnities, and sanctify my sabbaths. Ezec. 44:24
And the firstfruits of all the firstborn, and all the libations of all things that are offered, shall be the priest's: and you shall give the firstfruits of your meats to the priest, that he may return a blessing upon thy house. Ezec. 44:30
The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself or caught by a beast, whether it be fowl or cattle. Ezec. 44:31
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 45:0">¤a> And when you shall begin to divide the land by lot, separate ye firstfruits to the Lord, a portion of the land to be holy, in length <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 45:1">twenty-five thousanda> and in breadth ten thousand: it shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about. Ezec. 45:1

He shall have a portion of the land in Israel: and the princes shall no more rob my people: but they shall give the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes: Ezec. 45:8

<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eze 45:11">The ephi and the batea> shall be equal, and of one measure: that the bate may contain the tenth part of a core, and the ephi the tenth part of a core: their weight shall be equal according to the measure of a core. Ezec. 45:11
And the sicle hath twenty obols. Now twenty sicles, and five and twenty sicles, and fifteen sicles, make a mna, Ezec. 45:12
And these are the firstfruits, which you shall take: the sixth part of an ephi of a core of wheat, and the sixth part of an ephi of a core of barley. Ezec. 45:13
The measure of oil also, a bate of oil is the tenth part of a core: and ten bates make a core: for ten bates fill a core. Ezec. 45:14
And one ram out of a flock of two hundred, of those that Israel feedeth for sacrifice, and for holocausts, and for peace offerings, to make atonement for them, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 45:15

And the prince on that day shall offer for himself, and for all the people of the land, a calf for sin. Ezec. 45:22
And in the solemnity of the seven days he shall offer for a holocaust to the Lord, seven calves, and seven rams without blemish daily for seven days: and for sin a he goat daily. Ezec. 45:23
And he shall offer the sacrifice of an ephi for every calf, and an ephi for every ram: and a hin of oil for every ephi. Ezec. 45:24
And the holocaust that the prince shall offer to the Lord on the sabbath day, shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish. Ezec. 46:4
And the sacrifice of an ephi for a ram: but for the lambs what sacrifice his hand shall allow: and a hin of oil for every ephi. Ezec. 46:5
And on the day of the new moon a calf of the herd without blemish: and the six lambs, and the rams shall be without blemish. Ezec. 46:6
And he shall offer in sacrifice an ephi for a calf, an ephi also for a ram: but for the lambs, as his hand shall find: and a hin of oil for every ephi. Ezec. 46:7
And in the fairs, and in the solemnities there shall be the sacrifice of an ephi to a calf, and an ephi to a ram: and to the lambs, the sacrifice shall be as his hand shall find: and a hin of oil to every ephi. Ezec. 46:11
But when the prince shall offer a voluntary holocaust, or voluntary peace offerings to the Lord: the gate that looketh towards the east shall be opened to him, and he shall offer his holocaust, and his peace offerings, as it is wont to be done on the sabbath day: and he shall go out, and the gate shall be shut after he is gone forth. Ezec. 46:12
And he shall offer every day for a holocaust to the Lord, a lamb of the same year without blemish: he shall offer it always in the morning. Ezec. 46:13
And he shall offer the sacrifice for it morning by morning, the sixth part of an ephi: and the third part of a hin of oil to be mingled with the fine flour: a sacrifice to the Lord by ordinance continual and everlasting. Ezec. 46:14
Thus saith the Lord God: If the prince give a gift to any of his sons: the inheritance of it shall go to his children, they shall possess it by inheritance. Ezec. 46:16
But if he give a legacy out of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his until the year of release, and it shall return to the prince: but his inheritance shall go to his sons. Ezec. 46:17
And he brought me in by the entry that was at the side of the gate, into the chambers of the sanctuary that were for the priests, which looked toward the north. And there was a place bending to the west. Ezec. 46:19
And he brought me into the outward court, and he led me about by the four corners of the court: and behold there was a little court in the corner of the court, to every corner of the court there was a little court. Ezec. 46:21

And he measured a thousand, and he brought me through the water up to the loins. And he measured a thousand, and it was a torrent, which I could not pass over: for the waters were risen so as to make a deep torrent, which could not be passed over. Ezec. 47:5

Then the Chaldeans answered before the king, and said: There is no man upon earth, that can accomplish thy word, O king; neither doth any king, though great and mighty, ask such a thing of any diviner, or wise man, or Chaldean. Dan. 2:10
And he asked him that had received the orders of the king, why so cruel a sentence was gone forth from the face of the king. And when Arioch had told the matter to Daniel, Dan. 2:15
Then was the mystery revealed to Daniel by a vision in the night: and Daniel blessed the God of heaven, Dan. 2:19
Then Arioch in haste brought in Daniel to the king, and said to him: I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Juda, that will resolve the question to the king. Dan. 2:25
But there is a God in heaven that revealeth mysteries, who hath shewn to thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, what is to come to pass in the latter times. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these: Dan. 2:28
Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was as it were a great statue: this statue, which was great and high, tall of stature, stood before thee, and the look thereof was terrible. Dan. 2:31
Thus thou sawest, till a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands: and it struck the statue upon the feet thereof that were of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces. Dan. 2:34
Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of a summer's threshing floor, and they were carried away by the wind: and there was no place found for them: but the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. Dan. 2:35
Thou art a king of kings: and the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, and strength, and power, and glory: Dan. 2:37
But in the days of those kingdoms, the God of heaven will set up <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 2:44">a kingdoma> that shall never be destroyed, and his kingdom shall not be delivered up to another people: and it shall break in pieces, and shall consume all these kingdoms: and itself shall stand for ever. Dan. 2:44
And the king spoke to Daniel, and said: Verily, your God is the God of gods, and Lord of kings, and a revealer of hidden things: seeing thou couldst discover this secret. Dan. 2:47
Then the king advanced Daniel to a high station, and gave him many and great gifts: and he made him governor over all the provinces of Babylon: and chief of the magistrates over all the wise men of Babylon. Dan. 2:48
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 13:0">¤a> Now there was a man that dwelt in Babylon, and his name was Joakim: Dan. 13:1
And he took a wife, whose name was Susanna, the daughter of Helcias, a very beautiful woman, and one that feared God. Dan. 13:2
And turning back again, they came both to the same place: and asking one another the cause, they acknowledged their lust: and then they agreed together upon a time, when they might find her alone. Dan. 13:14
And it fell out, as they watched a fit day, she went in on a time, as yesterday and the day before, with two maids only, and was desirous to wash herself in the orchard: for it was hot weather. Dan. 13:15
And they did as she bade them: and they shut the doors of the orchard, and went out by a back door to fetch what she had commanded them, and they knew not that the elders were hid within. Dan. 13:18
But if thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee, and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee. Dan. 13:21
With that Susanna cried out with a loud voice: and the elders also cried out against her. Dan. 13:24
Then a young man that was there hid came to her, and lay with her. Dan. 13:37
But we that were in a corner of the orchard, seeing this wickedness, ran up to them, and we saw them lie together. Dan. 13:38
Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice, and said: O eternal God, who knowest hidden things, who knowest all things before they come to pass, Dan. 13:42
And when she was led to be put to death, the Lord raised up the holy spirit of a young boy, whose name was Daniel: Dan. 13:45
And he cried out with a loud voice: I am clear from the blood of this woman. Dan. 13:46
But he standing in the midst of them, said: Are ye so foolish, ye children of Israel, that without examination or knowledge of the truth, you have condemned a daughter of Israel? Dan. 13:48
Now then if thou sawest her, tell me under what tree thou sawest them conversing together: He said: Under a mastic tree. Dan. 13:54
Thus did you do to the daughters of Israel, and they for fear conversed with you: but a daughter of Juda would not abide your wickedness. Dan. 13:57
Now, therefore, tell me, under what tree didst thou take them conversing together. And he answered: Under a holm tree. Dan. 13:58
And Daniel said to him: Well hast thou also lied against thy own head: for the angel of the Lord waiteth with a sword to cut thee in two, and to destroy you. Dan. 13:59
With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and they blessed God, who saveth them that trust in him. Dan. 13:60
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 3:0">¤a> King Nabuchodonosor made a statue of gold, of sixty cubits high, and six cubits broad, and he set it up in the plain of Dura, of the province of Babylon. Dan. 3:1
Then a herald cried with a strong voice: To you it is commanded, O nations, tribes and languages: Dan. 3:4
But if any man shall not fall down and adore, he shall the same hour be cast into a furnace of burning fire. Dan. 3:6
Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music, shall prostrate himself, and adore the golden statue: Dan. 3:10
And that if any man shall not fall down and adore, he should be cast into a furnace of burning fire. Dan. 3:11
And thou hast delivered us into the hands of our enemies that are unjust, and most wicked, and prevaricators, and to a king unjust, and most wicked beyond all that are upon the earth. Dan. A:9
And now we cannot open our mouths: we are become a shame, and a reproach to thy servants, and to them that worship thee. Dan. A:10
That we may find thy mercy: nevertheless, in a contrite heart and humble spirit let us be accepted. Dan. A:16
And made the midst of the furnace like the blowing of a wind bringing dew, and the fire touched them not at all, nor troubled them, nor did them any harm. Dan. A:27
And the nobles, and the magistrates, and the judges, and the great men of the king, being gathered together, considered these men, that the fire had no power on their bodies, and that not a hair of their head had been singed, nor their garments altered, nor the smell of the fire had passed on them. Dan. 3:27
I saw a dream that affrighted me: and my thoughts in my bed, and the visions of my head, troubled me. Dan. 4:5
Then I set forth a decree, that all the wise men of Babylon should be brought in before me, and that they should shew me the interpretation of the dream. Dan. 4:6
This was the vision of my head in my bed: I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was exceeding great. Dan. 4:10
I saw in the vision of my head upon my bed, and behold <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 4:13">a watchera>, and a holy one came down from heaven. Dan. 4:13
Nevertheless, leave the stump of its roots in the earth, and let it be tied with a band of iron and of brass, among the grass, that is without, and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let its portion be with the wild beasts in the grass of the earth. Dan. 4:15
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 4:16">Let his heart be changeda> from man's, and let a beast's heart be given him: and let seven times pass over him. Dan. 4:16
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
And while the word was yet in the king's mouth, a voice came down from heaven: To thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, it is said: Thy kingdom shall pass from thee. Dan. 4:31
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 5:0">¤a> <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 5:1">Baltasara>, the king, made a great feast for a thousand of his nobles: and every one drank according to his age. Dan. 5:1
In the same hour there appeared fingers, as it were of the hand of a man, writing over against the candlestick, upon the surface of the wall of the king's palace: and the king beheld the joints of the hand that wrote. Dan. 5:5
And the king cried out aloud to bring in the wise men, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the king spoke, and said to the wise men of Babylon: Whosoever shall read this writing, and shall make known to me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and shall have a golden chain on his neck, and shall be the third man in my kingdom. Dan. 5:7
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
But I have heard of thee, that thou canst interpret obscure things, and resolve difficult things: now if thou art able to read the writing, and to shew me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and shalt have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third prince in my kingdom. Dan. 5:16
O king, the most high God gave to Nabuchodonosor, thy father, a kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and honour. Dan. 5:18
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
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 6:0">¤a> It seemed good to Darius, and he appointed over the kingdom a hundred and twenty governors, to be over his whole kingdom. Dan. 6:1
And Daniel excelled all the princes, and governors: because a greater spirit of God was in him. Dan. 6:3
Now, when Daniel knew this, that is to say, that the law was made, he went into his house: and opening the windows in his upper chamber towards Jerusalem, he knelt down three times a day, and adored and gave thanks before his God, as he had been accustomed to do before. Dan. 6:10
And they came and spoke to the king concerning the edict: O king, hast thou not decreed, that every man that should make a request to any of the gods, or men, for thirty days, but to thyself, O king, should be cast into the den of the lions? And the king answered them, saying: The word is true, according to the decree of the Medes and Persians, which it is not lawful to violate. Dan. 6:12
Then they answered, and said before the king: Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Juda, hath not regarded thy law, nor the decree that thou hast made: but three times a day he maketh his prayer. Dan. 6:13
And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den: which the king sealed with his own ring, and with the ring of his nobles, that nothing should be done against Daniel. Dan. 6:17
And 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
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 they little regarded it, because they had made under the table a secret entrance, and they always came in by it, and consumed those things. Dan. 14:12
And as soon as he had opened the door, the king looked upon the table, and cried out with a loud voice: Great art thou, O Bel, and there is not any deceit with thee. Dan. 14:17
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
And when the Babylonians had heard this, they took great indignation: and being gathered together against the king, they said: The king is become a Jew. He hath destroyed Bel, he hath killed the dragon, and he hath put the priests to death. Dan. 14:27
Now there was in Judea a prophet called <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 14:32">Habacuca>, and he had boiled pottage, and had broken bread in a bowl: and was going into the field, to carry it to the reapers. Dan. 14:32
And 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 href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 7:0">¤a> In the first year of Baltasar, king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream: and the vision of his head was upon his bed: and writing the dream, he comprehended it in a few words: and relating the sum of it in short, he said: Dan. 7:1
The first was like a lioness, and had the wings of an eagle: I beheld till her wings were plucked off, and she was lifted up from the earth, and stood upon her feet as a man, and the heart of a man was given to her. Dan. 7:4
And behold another beast, like a bear, stood up on one side: and there were three rows in the mouth thereof, and in the teeth thereof, and thus they said to it: Arise, devour much flesh. Dan. 7:5
After this I beheld, and lo, another like a leopard, and it had upon it four wings, as of a fowl, and the beast had four heads, and power was given to it. Dan. 7:6
After this I beheld in the vision of the night, and lo, a fourth beast, terrible and wonderful, and exceeding strong, it had great iron teeth, eating and breaking in pieces, and treading down the rest with its feet: and it was unlike to the other beasts which I had seen before it, and had <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 7:7">ten hornsa>. Dan. 7:7
I considered the horns, and behold <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 7:8">another little horna> sprung out of the midst of them: and three of the first horns were plucked up at the presence thereof: and behold eyes like the eyes of a man were in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things. Dan. 7:8
I beheld till thrones were placed, and the ancient of days sat: his garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like clean wool: his throne like flames of fire: the wheels of it like a burning fire. Dan. 7:9
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
And that the power of the other beasts was taken away: and that times of life were appointed them for a time, and time. Dan. 7:12
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
And concerning the ten horns that he had on his head: and concerning the other that came up, before which three horns fell: and of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and was greater than the rest. Dan. 7:20
And he shall speak words against the High One, and shall crush the saints of the most High: and he shall think himself able to change times and laws, and they shall be delivered into his hand until <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 7:25">a time, and times, and half a timea>. Dan. 7:25
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 8:0">¤a> In the third year of the reign of king Baltasar, a vision appeared to me. I, Daniel, after what I had seen in the beginning, Dan. 8:1
And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 8:3">a rama> stood before the water, having two high horns, and one higher than the other, and growing up. Afterward Dan. 8:3
And I understood: and behold <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 8:5">a he goata> came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and he touched not the ground, and the he goat had a notable horn between his eyes. Dan. 8:5
And out of one of them came forth <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 8:9">a little horna>: and it became great against the south, and against the east, and against the strength. Dan. 8:9
And it came to pass when I, Daniel, saw the vision, and sought the meaning, that behold there stood before me as it were the appearance of a man. Dan. 8:15
And I heard the voice of a man between Ulai: and he called, and said: Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision. Dan. 8:16
And after their reign, when iniquities shall be grown up, there shall arise a king of a shameless face, and understanding dark sentences. Dan. 8:23
And he hath confirmed his words which he spoke against us, and against our princes that judged us, that he would bring in upon us a great evil, such as never was under all the heaven, according to that which hath been done in Jerusalem. Dan. 9:12
And now, O Lord, our God, who hast brought forth thy people out of the land of Egypt, with a strong hand, and hast made thee a name as at this day: we have sinned, we have committed iniquity, Dan. 9:15
O Lord, against all thy justice: let thy wrath and thy indignation be turned away, I beseech thee, from thy city, Jerusalem, and from thy holy mountain. For by reason of our sins, and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem, and thy people, are a reproach to all that are round about us. Dan. 9:16
From the beginning of thy prayers the word came forth: and I am come to shew it to thee, because thou art a <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 9:23">man of desiresa>: therefore, do thou mark the word, and understand the vision. Dan. 9:23
And after sixty-two weeks Christ shall be slain: and the people that shall deny him shall not be his. And <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 9:26">a people, with their leadera>, that shall come, shall destroy the city, and the sanctuary: and the end thereof shall be waste, and after the end of the war the appointed desolation. Dan. 9:26
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 10:0">¤a> In the third year of Cyrus, king of the Persians, a word was revealed to Daniel, surnamed Baltassar, and a true word, and great strength: and he understood the word: for there is need of understanding in a vision. Dan. 10:1
And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw: and behold a man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with the finest gold: Dan. 10:5
And his body was like the chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as a burning lamp: and his arms, and all downward even to the feet, like in appearance to glittering brass: and the voice of his word like the voice of a multitude. Dan. 10:6
And I heard the voice of his words: and when I heard I lay in a consternation upon my face, and my face was close to the ground. Dan. 10:9
And behold a hand touched me, and lifted me up upon my knees, and upon the joints of my hands. Dan. 10:10
And behold as it were the likeness of a son of man touched my lips: then I opened my mouth and spoke, and said to him that stood before me: O my lord, at the sight of thee my joints are loosed, and no strength hath remained in me. Dan. 10:16
Therefore, he that looked like a man, touched me again, and strengthened me. Dan. 10:18
But there shall rise up <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:3">a strong kinga>, and shall rule with great power: and he shall do what he pleaseth. Dan. 11:3
And <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:7">a planta> of the bud of her roots shall stand up: and he shall come with an army, and shall enter into the province of the king of the north: and he shall abuse them, and shall prevail. Dan. 11:7
And <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:10">his sonsa> shall be provoked, and they shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and he shall come with haste like a flood: and he shall return, and be stirred up, and he shall join battle with his force. Dan. 11:10
And <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:11">the king of the southa> being provoked, shall go forth, and shall fight against the king of the north, and shall prepare an exceeding great multitude, and a multitude shall be given into his hand. Dan. 11:11
And he shall take a multitude, and his heart shall be lifted up, and he shall cast down many thousands: but he shall not prevail. Dan. 11:12
For the king of the north shall return, and shall prepare a multitude much greater than before: and in the end of times, and years, he shall come in haste with a great army, and much riches. Dan. 11:13
And the king of the north shall come, and shall cast up a mount, and shall take the best fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, and his chosen ones shall rise up to resist, and they shall not have strength. Dan. 11:15
And he shall set his face to come to possess <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:17">all his kingdoma>, and he shall make upright conditions with him: and he shall give him a daughter of women, to overthrow it: and she shall not stand, neither shall she be for him. Dan. 11:17
And there shall stand up in his place <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:20">one most vilea>, and unworthy of kingly honour: and in a few days he shall be destroyed, not in rage nor in battle. Dan. 11:20
And after friendships, he will deal deceitfully with him: and he shall go up, and shall overcome with a small people. Dan. 11:23
And he shall enter into rich and plentiful cities: and he shall do that which his fathers never did, nor his fathers' fathers: he shall scatter their spoils, and their prey, and their riches, and shall forecast devices against the best fenced places: and this until a time. Dan. 11:24
And his strength, and his heart, shall be stirred up against <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:25">the kinga> of the south, with a great army: and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with many and very strong succours: and they shall not stand, for they shall form designs against him. Dan. 11:25
And when they shall have fallen, they shall be relieved with a small help: and many shall be joined to them deceitfully. Dan. 11:34
But he shall worship <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:38">the god Maozima>, in his place: and a god whom his fathers knew not, he shall worship with gold, and silver, and precious stones, and things of great price. Dan. 11:38
And he shall do this to fortify Maozim with a strange god, whom he hath acknowledged, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:39">and he shall increase glorya>, and shall give them power over many, and shall divide the land gratis. Dan. 11:39
And at the time prefixed the king of the south shall fight against him, and the king of the north shall come against him like a tempest, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with a great navy, and he shall enter into the countries, and shall destroy, and pass through. Dan. 11:40
And tidings out of the east, and out of the north, shall trouble him: and he shall come with a great multitude to destroy and slay many. Dan. 11:44
And he shall fix his tabernacle, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 11:45">Apadnoa>, between the seas, upon a glorious and holy mountain: and he shall come even to the top thereof, and none shall help him. Dan. 11:45
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=da 12:0">¤a> But at that time shall Michael rise up, the great prince, who standeth for the children of thy people: and a time shall come, such as never was from the time that nations began, even until that time. And at that time shall thy people be saved, every one that shall be found written in the book. Dan. 12:1
And I heard the man that was clothed in linen, that stood upon the waters of the river, when he had lifted up his right hand, and his left hand to heaven, and had sworn by him that liveth for ever, that it should be unto a time, and times, and half a time. And when the scattering of the band of the holy people shall be accomplished, all these things shall be finished. Dan. 12:7
And from the time when the continual sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination unto desolation shall be set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred ninety days. Dan. 12:11
Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh unto a thousand three hundred thirty-five days. Dan. 12:12
The beginning of the Lord's speaking by Osee: and the Lord said to Osee: Go, take thee <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ho 1:2">a wife of fornicationsa>, and have of her children of fornications: for the land by fornication shall depart from the Lord. Osee 1:2
So he went and took Gomer, the daughter of Debelaim: and she conceived, and bore him a son. Osee 1:3
And the Lord said to him: Call his name Jezrahel: for yet a little while, and I will visit the blood of Jezrahel upon the house of Jehu, and I will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel. Osee 1:4
And she conceived again, and bore a daughter, and he said to him: Call her name, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ho 1:6">Without mercya>: for I will not add any more to have mercy on the house of Israel, but I will utterly forget them. Osee 1:6
And she weaned her that was called Without mercy. And she conceived, and bore a son. Osee 1:8
Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born: and I will make her as a wilderness, and will set her as a land that none can pass through and will kill her with drought. Osee 2:3
Wherefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and I will stop it up with a wall, and she shall not find her paths. Osee 2:6
And I will destroy her vines, and her fig trees, of which she said: These are my rewards, which my lovers have given me: and I will make her as a forest and the beasts of the field shall devour her. Osee 2:12
And in that day I will make a covenant with them, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the air, and with the creeping things of the earth: and I will destroy the bow, and the sword, and war out of the land: and I will make them sleep secure. Osee 2:18
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ho 3:0">¤a> And the Lord said to me: Go yet again, and love a woman beloved of her friend, and an adulteress: as the Lord loveth the children of Israel, and they look to strange gods, and love the husks of the grapes. Osee 3:1
And I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for a core of barley, and for half a core of barley. Osee 3:2
But yet <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ho 4:4">let not any man judgea>: and let not a man be rebuked: for thy people are as they that contradict the priest. Osee 4:4
For Israel hath gone astray like a wanton heifer now will the Lord feed them, as a lamb in a spacious place. Osee 4:16
Ephraim is a partaker with idols, let him alone. Osee 4:17
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ho 5:0">¤a> Hear ye this, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ho 5:1">O priestsa>, and hearken, O ye house of Israel, and give ear, O house of the king: for there is a judgment against you, because you have been a snare to them whom you should have watched over and a net spread upon Thabor. Osee 5:1
They have transgressed against the Lord: for they have begotten <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ho 5:7">children that are strangersa>: now shall a month devour them with their portions. Osee 5:7
And I will be like a moth to Ephraim: and like rottenness to the house of Juda. Osee 5:12
For I will be like a lioness to Ephraim, and like a lion's whelp to the house of Juda: I, I will catch, and go: I will take away, and there is none that can rescue. Osee 5:14
What shall I do to thee, O Ephraim? what shall I do to thee, O Juda? your mercy is as a morning cloud, and as the dew that goeth away in the morning. Osee 6:4
Galaad is a city of workers of idols, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ho 6:8">supplanted with blooda>. Osee 6:8
I have seen a horrible thing in the house of Israel: the fornications of Ephraim there: Israel is defiled. Osee 6:10
And thou also, O Juda, set thee a harvest, when I shall bring back the captivity of my people. Osee 6:11
They are all adulterers, like an oven heated by the baker: the city rested a little from the mingling of the leaven, till the whole was leavened. Osee 7:4
Because they have applied their heart like an oven, when he laid snares for them: he slept all the night baking them, in the morning he himself was heated as a flaming fire. Osee 7:6
And Ephraim is become as a dove that is decoyed, not having a heart: they called upon Egypt, they went to the Assyrians. Osee 7:11
They returned, that they might be without yoke: they became like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword, for the rage of their tongue. This is their derision in the land of Egypt. Osee 7:16

And there came out of them a wicked root, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 1:11">Antiochus the Illustriousa>, the son of king Antiochus, who had been a hostage at Rome: and he reigned in the hundred and thirty-seventh year of the kingdom of the Greeks. 1 Ma. 1:11
In those days there went out of Israel wicked men, and they persuaded many, saying: Let us go and make a covenant with the heathens that are round about us: for since we departed from them, many evils have befallen us. 1 Ma. 1:12
And they built a place of exercise in Jerusalem, according to the laws of the nations: 1 Ma. 1:15
And the kingdom was established before Antiochus, and he had a mind to reign over the land of Egypt, that he might reign over two kingdoms. 1 Ma. 1:17
And he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots, and elephants, and horsemen, and a great number of ships: 1 Ma. 1:18
And he went up to Jerusalem, with a great multitude. 1 Ma. 1:22
And he made a great slaughter of men, and spoke very proudly. 1 Ma. 1:25
And after two full years, the king sent <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 1:30">the chief collectora> of his tributes to the cities of Juda, and he came to Jerusalem with a great multitude. 1 Ma. 1:30
And he fell upon the city suddenly, and struck it with a great slaughter, and destroyed much people in Israel. 1 Ma. 1:32
And they built <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 1:35">the city of Davida> with a great and strong wall, and with strong towers, and made it a fortress for them: 1 Ma. 1:35
And they placed there a sinful nation, wicked men, and they fortified themselves therein: and they stored up armour; and victuals, and gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem; 1 Ma. 1:36
And laid them up there: and they became a great snare. 1 Ma. 1:37
And this was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 1:38">an evil devila> in Israel. 1 Ma. 1:38
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled away by reason of them and the city was made the habitation of strangers, and she became a stranger to her own seed, and her children forsook her. 1 Ma. 1:40
Her sanctuary was desolate like a wilderness, her festival days were turned into mourning, her sabbaths into reproach, her honours were brought to nothing. 1 Ma. 1:41
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 2:0">¤a> In those days arose Mathathias, the son of John, the son of Simeon, a priest of the sons of Joarib, from Jerusalem, and he abode in the mountain of Modin: 1 Ma. 2:1
The holy places are come into the hands of strangers her temple is become as a man without honour. 1 Ma. 2:8
All her ornaments are taken away. She that was free is made a slave. 1 Ma. 2:11
And they that were sent from Antiochus, answering, said to Mathathias: Thou art a ruler, and an honourable, and great man in this city, and adorned with sons, and brethren. 1 Ma. 2:17
Then Mathathias answered, and said with a loud voice: Although all nations obey king Antiochus, so as to depart every man from the service of the law of his fathers, and consent to his commandments: 1 Ma. 2:19
Now as he left off speaking these words, there came a certain Jew in the sight of all to sacrifice to the idols upon the altar in the city of Modin, according to the king's commandment. 1 Ma. 2:23
And Mathathias cried out in the city with a loud voice, saying: Every one that hath zeal for the law, and maintaineth the testament, let him follow me. 1 Ma. 2:27
But they answered them not, neither did they cast a stone at them, nor stopped up the secret places, 1 Ma. 2:36
So they gave them battle on the sabbath: and they were slain, with their wives, and their children, and their cattle, to the number of a thousand persons. 1 Ma. 2:38
Then was assembled to them the congregation of <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 2:42">the Assideansa>, the stoutest of Israel, every one that had a good will for the law. 1 Ma. 2:42
And all they that fled from the evils, joined themselves to them, and were a support to them. 1 Ma. 2:43
And fear not the words of a sinful man, for his glory is dung and worms: 1 Ma. 2:62
And behold, I know that your brother Simon is a man of counsel: give ear to him always, and he shall be a father to you. 1 Ma. 2:65
And he got his people great honour, and put on a breastplate as a giant, and girt his warlike armour about him in battles, and protected the camp with his sword. 1 Ma. 3:3
In his acts he was like a lion, and like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey. 1 Ma. 3:4
And Apollonius gathered together the Gentiles, and a numerous and great army from Samaria, to make war against Israel. 1 Ma. 3:10
And Seron, captain of the army of Syria, heard that Judas had assembled a company of the faithful, and a congregation with him, 1 Ma. 3:13
And he said I will get me a name, and will be glorified in the kingdom, and will overthrow Judas, and those that are with him, that have despised the edict of the king. 1 Ma. 3:14
And they approached even as far as Bethoron: and Judas went forth to meet him, with a small company. 1 Ma. 3:16
But when they saw the army coming to meet them, they said to Judas: How shall we, being few, be able to fight against so great a multitude, and so strong, and we are ready to faint with fasting today? 1 Ma. 3:17
And Judas said: It is an easy matter for many to be shut up in the hands of a few: and there is no difference in the sight of the God of heaven to deliver with a great multitude, or with a small company: 1 Ma. 3:18
And he opened his treasury, and gave out pay to the army for a year: and he commanded them, that they should be ready for all things. 1 Ma. 3:28
And he feared that he should not have as formerly enough for charges and gifts, which he had given before with a liberal hand: for he had abounded more than the kings that had been before him. 1 Ma. 3:30
And he left Lysias, a nobleman of the blood royal to oversee the affairs of the kingdom from the river Euphrates even to the river of Egypt: 1 Ma. 3:32
Now Jerusalem was not inhabited, but was like a desert: there was none of her children that went in or out: and the sanctuary was trodden down: and the children of strangers were in the castle, there was the habitation of the Gentiles: and joy was taken away from Jacob, and the pipe and harp ceased there. 1 Ma. 3:45
And they assembled together, and came to Maspha, over against Jerusalem: for in Maspha was a place of prayer heretofore in Israel. 1 Ma. 3:46
And they cried with a loud voice toward heaven, saying: What shall we do with these, and whither shall we carry them? 1 Ma. 3:50
Then they sounded with trumpets, and cried out with a loud voice. 1 Ma. 3:54
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 4:0">¤a> Then Gorgias took five thousand men, and a thousand of the best horsemen; and they removed out of the camp by night. 1 Ma. 4:1
Remember in what manner our fathers were saved in the Red Sea, when Pharao pursued them with a great army. 1 Ma. 4:9
And returning home, they sung a hymn, and blessed God in heaven, because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever. 1 Ma. 4:24
So Israel had a great deliverance that day. 1 Ma. 4:25
And they saw the sanctuary desolate, and the altar profaned, and the gates burnt, and shrubs growing up in the courts as in a forest, or on the mountains, and the chambers joining to the temple thrown down. 1 Ma. 4:38
And a good counsel came into their minds, to pull it down: lest it should be a reproach to them, because the Gentiles had defiled it; so they threw it down. 1 Ma. 4:45
And they laid up the stones in the mountain of the temple, in a convenient place, till there should come a prophet, and give answer concerning them. 1 Ma. 4:46
Then they took whole stones, according to the law and built a new altar, according to the former: 1 Ma. 4:47
And he placed a garrison there, to keep it, and he fortified it, to secure Bethsura, that the people might have a defence against Idumea. 1 Ma. 4:61
Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea, and them that were in Acrabathane: because they beset the Israelites round about, and he made a great slaughter of them. 1 Ma. 5:3
And he remembered the malice of the children of Bean: who were a snare and a stumblingblock to the people, by lying in wait for them in the way. 1 Ma. 5:4
Then he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power, and much people, and Timotheus was their captain: 1 Ma. 5:6
And all our brethren that were in the places of Tubin, are killed: and they have carried away their wives, and their children, captives, and taken their spoils, and they have slain there almost a thousand men. 1 Ma. 5:13
Now when Judas and all the people heard these words, a great assembly met together to consider what they should do for their brethren that were in trouble, and were assaulted by them. 1 Ma. 5:16
And the Nabutheans met them, and received them in a peaceable manner, and told them all that happened to their brethren in the land of Galaad, 1 Ma. 5:25
And Judas saw that the fight was begun, and the cry of the battle went up to heaven like a trumpet, and a great cry out of the city: 1 Ma. 5:31
And the host of Timotheus understood that it was Machabeus, and they fled away before his face and they made a great slaughter of them, and there fell of them in that day almost eight thousand men. 1 Ma. 5:34
And they came as far as Ephron: now this was a great city, situate in the way, strongly fortified, and there was no means to turn from it on the right hand or on the left, but the way was through the midst of it. 1 Ma. 5:46
And he said: Let us also get us a name, and let us go fight against the Gentiles that are round about us. 1 Ma. 5:57
And Joseph and Azarias were put to flight, and were pursued unto the borders of Judea: and there fell on that day, of the people of Israel, about two thousand men, and there was a great overthrow of the people: 1 Ma. 5:60
And that there was in it a temple exceeding rich; and coverings of gold, and breastplates, and shields, which king Alexander, son of Philip, the Macedonian, that reigned first in Greece, had left there. 1 Ma. 6:2
And that Lysias went with a very great power, and was put to flight before the face of the Jews, and that they were grown strong by the armour, and power, and store of spoils which they had gotten out of the camps which they had destroyed: 1 Ma. 6:6
I know, therefore, that for this cause these evils have found me: and behold I perish with great grief in a strange land. 1 Ma. 6:13
And they distributed the beasts by the legions: and there stood by every elephant a thousand men in coats of mail, and with helmets of brass on their heads: and five hundred horsemen set in order were chosen for every beast. 1 Ma. 6:35
And the king took Bethsura: and he placed there a garrison to keep it. 1 Ma. 6:50
And there remained in the holy places but a few, for the famine had prevailed over them: and they were dispersed every man to his own place. 1 Ma. 6:54
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 7:0">¤a> In the hundred and fifty-first year, Demetrius, the son of Seleucus, departed from the city of Rome, and came up with a few men into a city of the sea coast, and reigned there. 1 Ma. 7:1
And they arose, and came with a great army into the land of Juda: and they sent messengers, and spoke to Judas and his brethren with peaceable words, deceitfully. 1 Ma. 7:10
But they gave no heed to their words: for they saw that they were come with a great army. 1 Ma. 7:11
Then there assembled to Alcimus and Bacchides a company of the scribes, to require things that are just: 1 Ma. 7:12
For they said: One that is a priest of the seed of Aaron is come, he will not deceive us. 1 Ma. 7:14
And Bacchides removed the camp from Jerusalem, and pitched in Bethzecha: and he sent, and took many of them that were fled away from him, and some of the people he killed, and threw them into a great pit. 1 Ma. 7:19
And the king sent Nicanor, one of his principal lords, who was a great enemy to Israel: and he commanded him to destroy the people. 1 Ma. 7:26
And Nicanor came to Jerusalem with a great army, and he sent to Judas and to his brethren deceitfully, with friendly words, 1 Ma. 7:27
Saying: Let there be no fighting between me and you: I will come with a few men, to see your faces with peace. 1 Ma. 7:28
And swore in anger, saying: Unless Judas and his army be delivered into my hands, as soon as ever I return in peace, I will burn this house. And he went out in a great rage. 1 Ma. 7:35
Thou, O Lord, hast chosen this house for thy name to be called upon therein, that it might be a house of prayer and supplication for thy people. 1 Ma. 7:37
O Lord, when they that were sent by king Sennacherib blasphemed thee, an angel went out, and slew of them a hundred and eighty-five thousand: 1 Ma. 7:41
And they took the spoils of them for a booty, and they cut off Nicanor's head, and his right hand, which he had proudly stretched out, and they brought it, and hung it up over against Jerusalem. 1 Ma. 7:47
And the land of Juda was quiet for a short time. 1 Ma. 7:50
And how Antiochus, the great king of Asia, who went to fight against them, having a hundred and twenty elephants, with horsemen, and chariots, and a very great army, was routed by them. 1 Ma. 8:6
And how they took him alive, and appointed to him, that both he and they that should reign after him, should pay a great tribute, and that he should give hostages, and that which was agreed upon, 1 Ma. 8:7
And that they who were in Greece, had a mind to go and to destroy them: and they had knowledge thereof, 1 Ma. 8:9
And they sent a general against them, and fought with them, and many of them were slain, and they carried away their wives, and their children captives, and spoiled them, and took possession of their land, and threw down their walls, and brought them to be their servants unto this day. 1 Ma. 8:10
That whom they had a mind to help to a kingdom, those reigned: and whom they would, they deposed from the kingdom: and they were greatly exalted. 1 Ma. 8:13
And none of all these wore a crown, or was clothed in purple, to be magnified thereby. 1 Ma. 8:14
And that they had made themselves a senate house, and consulted daily three hundred and twenty men, that sat in council always for the people, that they might do the things that were right: 1 Ma. 8:15
So Judas chose Eupolemus, the son of John, the son of Jacob, and Jason, the son of Eleazar, and he sent them to Rome to make a league of amity and confederacy with them: 1 Ma. 8:17
And they went to Rome, a very long journey, and they entered into the senate house, and said: 1 Ma. 8:19
And this is the copy of the writing that they wrote back again, graven in tables of brass, and sent to Jerusalem, that it might be with them there for a memorial of the peace, and alliance. 1 Ma. 8:22
And, if after this, one party or the other shall have a mind to add to these articles, or take away any thing, they may do it at their pleasure: and whatsoever they shall add, or take away, shall be ratified. 1 Ma. 8:30
In those days there was a very great famine, and they and all their country yielded to Bacchides. 1 Ma. 9:24
And there was a great tribulation in Israel, such as was not since the day, that there was no prophet seen in Israel. 1 Ma. 9:27
Since thy brother Judas died there is not a man like him to go forth against our enemies, Bacchides, and them that are the enemies of our nation. 1 Ma. 9:29
And Jonathan sent his brother, a captain of the people, to desire the Nabutheans his friends, that they would lend them their equipage, which was copious. 1 Ma. 9:35
After this it was told Jonathan, and Simon, his brother, that the children of Jambri made a great marriage, and were bringing the bride out of Madaba, the daughter of one of the great princes of Chanaan, with great pomp. 1 Ma. 9:37
And they lifted up their eyes, and saw: and behold a tumult, and great preparation: and the bridegroom came forth, and his friends, and his brethren to meet them with timbrels, and musical instruments and many weapons. 1 Ma. 9:39
And Bacchides heard it, and he came on the sabbath day even to the bank of the Jordan, with a great power. 1 Ma. 9:43
And there fell of Bacchides' side that day a thousand men: and they returned to Jerusalem, 1 Ma. 9:49
At that time Alcimus was struck: and his works were hindered, and his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak a word, nor give order concerning his house. 1 Ma. 9:55
And all the wicked held a council, saying: Behold Jonathan, and they that are with him, dwell at ease and without fear: now, therefore, let us bring Bacchides hither, and he shall take them all in one night. 1 Ma. 9:58
And he arose to come with a great army: and he sent secretly letters to his adherents that were in Judea to seize upon Jonathan, and them that were with him: but they could not, for their design was known to them. 1 Ma. 9:60
But Jonathan left his brother, Simon, in the city and went forth into the country, and came with a number of men, 1 Ma. 9:65
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
Only in Bethsura there remained some of them, that had forsaken the law, and the commandments of God: for this was a place of refuge for them. 1 Ma. 10:14
So he wrote a letter, and sent it to him according to these words, saying: 1 Ma. 10:17
We have heard of thee, that thou art a man of great power, and fit to be our friend: 1 Ma. 10:19
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
Then Jonathan put on the holy vestment in the seventh month, in the year one hundred and threescore, at the feast day of the tabernacles: and he gathered together an army, and made a great number of arms. 1 Ma. 10:21
Ptolemais and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things. 1 Ma. 10:39
And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius. 1 Ma. 10:48
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 king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan, the high priest, 1 Ma. 10:69
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 Apollonius heard of it, and he took three thousand horsemen, and a great army. 1 Ma. 10:77
And he went to Azotus, as one that was making a journey, and immediately he went forth into the plain: because he had a great number of horsemen, and he trusted in them. And Jonathan followed after him to Azotus, and they joined battle. 1 Ma. 10:78
And Apollonius left privately in the camp a thousand horsemen behind them. 1 Ma. 10:79
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 sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father. 1 Ma. 11:9
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
We send you here a copy of the letter which we have written to Lasthenes, our parent, concerning you, that you might know it. 1 Ma. 11:31
Now, therefore, see that thou make a copy of these things, and let it be given to Jonathan, and set upon the holy mountain, in a conspicuous place. 1 Ma. 11:37
And they that were of the city assembled themselves together, to the number of a hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have killed the king. 1 Ma. 11:45
And they slew in that day a hundred thousand men, and they set fire to the city, and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king. 1 Ma. 11:48
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
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 this is a copy of the letters which Jonathan wrote to the Spartans: 1 Ma. 12:5
Chose rather to send to you to renew the brotherhood and friendship, lest we should become strangers to you altogether: for there is a long time passed since you sent to us. 1 Ma. 12:10
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
(For he heard that they designed to deliver the hold to them that took part with Demetrius) and he put a garrison there to keep it. 1 Ma. 12:34
And Jonathan came back, and called together the ancients of the people; and he took a resolution with them to build fortresses in Judea, 1 Ma. 12:35
And to build up walls in Jerusalem, and raise a mount between the castle and the city, to separate it from the city, that so it might have no communication, and that they might neither buy nor sell. 1 Ma. 12:36
Now when Tryphon had conceived a design to make himself king of Asia and to take the crown, and to stretch out his hand against king Antiochus: 1 Ma. 12:39
Now when Tryphon saw that Jonathan came with a great army, he durst not stretch forth his hand against him. 1 Ma. 12:42
Now, therefore, send them back to their own houses: and choose thee a few men that may be with thee, and come with me to Ptolemais, and I will deliver it to thee, and the rest of the strong holds, and the army, and all that have any charge, and I will return and go away: for this is the cause of my coming. 1 Ma. 12:45
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x1ma 13:0">¤a> Now Simon heard that Tryphon was gathering together a very great army to invade the land of Juda, and to destroy it. 1 Ma. 13:1
And they answered with a loud voice, saying: Thou art our leader in the place of Judas, and Jonathan, thy brother: 1 Ma. 13:8
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
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 Tryphon made ready all his horsemen to come that night; but there fell a very great snow, and he came not into the country of Galaad. 1 Ma. 13:22
And Simon built over the sepulchre of his father and of his brethren, a building lofty to the sight, of polished stone, behind and before: 1 Ma. 13:27
And round about these he set great pillars; and upon the pillars, arms, for a perpetual memory; and by the arms, ships carved, which might be seen by all that sailed on the sea. 1 Ma. 13:29
But Tryphon, when he was upon a journey with the young king, Antiochus, treacherously slew him. 1 Ma. 13:31
And king Demetrius, in answer to this request, wrote a letter in this manner: 1 Ma. 13:35
The golden crown, and the palm, which you sent, we have received: and we are ready to make a firm peace with you, and to write to the king's chief officers to release you the things that we have released. 1 Ma. 13:37
And they that were within the engine leapt into the city: and there was a great uproar in the city. 1 Ma. 13:44
And they that were in the city went up, with their wives and children, upon the wall, with their garments rent, and they cried with a loud voice, beseeching Simon to grant them peace. 1 Ma. 13:45
And Simon saw that John, his son, was a valiant man for war: and he made him captain of all the forces: and he dwelt in Gazara. 1 Ma. 13:54
And with all his glory he took Joppe for a haven, and made an entrance to the isles of the sea. 1 Ma. 14:5
And he gathered together a great number of captives, and had the dominion of Gazara, and of Bethsura, and of the castle: and took away all uncleanness out of it, and there was none that resisted him. 1 Ma. 14:7
And it pleased the people to receive the men honourably, and to put a copy of their words in the public records, to be a memorial to the people of the Spartans. And we have written a copy of them to Simon, the high priest. 1 Ma. 14:23
And after this Simon sent Numenius to Rome, with a great shield of gold, of the weight of a thousand pounds, to confirm the league with them. And when the people of Rome had heard 1 Ma. 14:24
And this is a copy of the writing. The eighteenth day of the month Elul, in the year one hundred and seventy-two, being the third year under Simon, the high priest, at Asaramel, 1 Ma. 14:27
In a great assembly of the priests, and of the people, and the princes of the nation, and the ancients of the country, these things were notified: Forasmuch as there have often been wars in our country, 1 Ma. 14:28
And he fortified the cities of Judea and Bethsura that lieth in the borders of Judea, where the armour of the enemies was before: and he placed there a garrison of Jews. 1 Ma. 14:33
And that the Jews, and their priests, had consented that he should be their prince and high priest for ever, till there should arise a faithful prophet: 1 Ma. 14:41
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
And they commanded that this writing should be put in tables of brass, and that they should be set up within the compass of the sanctuary, in a conspicuous place: 1 Ma. 14:48
And that a copy thereof should be put in the treasury, that Simon, and his sons, may have it. 1 Ma. 14:49
Forasmuch as certain pestilent men have usurped the kingdom of our fathers, and my purpose is to challenge the kingdom, and to restore it to its former estate; and I have chosen a great army, and have built ships of war. 1 Ma. 15:3
And Antiochus camped above Dora with a hundred and twenty thousand men of war, and eight thousand horsemen: 1 Ma. 15:13
And they brought also a shield of gold of a thousand pounds. 1 Ma. 15:18
And they wrote a copy thereof to Simon, the high priest, and to the people of the Jews. 1 Ma. 15:24
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 they arose in the morning, and went into the plain: and behold a very great army of footmen and horsemen came against them, and there was a running river between them. 1 Ma. 16:5
And the son of Abobus received them deceitfully into a little fortress, that is called Doch, which he had built: and he made them a great feast, and hid men there. 1 Ma. 16:15
And he committed a great treachery in Israel, and rendered evil for good. 1 Ma. 16:17
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 <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 1:11">such a kinga>. 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 <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 1:13">Naneaa>, being deceived by the counsel of the priests of Nanea. 2 Ma. 1:13
For Antiochus, with his friends, came to the place as though he would marry her, and that he might receive great sums of money under the title of a dowry. 2 Ma. 1:14
And when the priests of Nanea had set it forth, and he with a small company had entered into the compass of the temple, they shut the temple, 2 Ma. 1:15
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
For when our fathers were led into <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 1:19">Persiaa>, the priests that then were worshippers of God, took privately the fire from the altar, and hid it in a valley where there was a deep pit without water, and there they kept it safe, so that the place was unknown to all men. 2 Ma. 1:19
And when this was done, and the time came that the sun shone out, which before was in a cloud, there was a great fire kindled, so that all wondered. 2 Ma. 1:22
Which being done, there was kindled a flame from them: but it was consumed by the light that shined from the altar. 2 Ma. 1:32
And the king considering, and diligently examining the matter, made <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 1:34">a templea> for it, that he might prove what had happened. 2 Ma. 1:34
And when Jeremias came thither he found a hollow cave: and he carried in thither the tabernacle, and the ark, and the altar of incense, and so stopped the door. 2 Ma. 2:5
And then the Lord will shew these things, and the majesty of the Lord shall appear, and there shall be a cloud as it was also shewed to Moses, and he shewed it when Solomon prayed that the place might be sanctified to the great God. 2 Ma. 2:8
For he treated wisdom in a magnificent manner: and like a wise man, he offered the sacrifice of the dedication, and of the finishing of the temple. 2 Ma. 2:9
And these same things were set down in the memoirs, and commentaries of Nehemias: and how he made a library, and gathered together out of the countries, the books both of the prophets, and of David, and the epistles of the kings, and concerning the holy gifts. 2 Ma. 2:13
And the manifestations that came from heaven to them, that behaved themselves manfully on the behalf of the Jews, so that, being but a few they made themselves masters of the whole country, and put to flight the barbarous multitude: 2 Ma. 2:22
We have taken care for those indeed that are willing to read, that it might be a pleasure of mind: and for the studious, that they may more easily commit to memory: and that all that read might receive profit. 2 Ma. 2:26
And as to ourselves indeed, in undertaking this work of abridging, we have taken in hand <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 2:27">no easy taska>; yea, rather a business full of watching and sweat. 2 Ma. 2:27
But as they that prepare a feast, and seek to satisfy the will of others: for the sake of many, we willingly undergo the labour. 2 Ma. 2:28
For as the master builder of a new house must have care of the whole building: but he that taketh care to paint it, must seek out fit things for the adorning of it: so must it be judged of us. 2 Ma. 2:30
For to collect all that is to be known, to put the discourse in order, and curiously to discuss every particular point, is the duty of the author of a history: 2 Ma. 2:31
Here then we will begin the narration: let this be enough by way of a preface: for it is a foolish thing to make a long prologue, and to be short in the story itself. 2 Ma. 2:33
So Heliodorus forthwith began his journey, under a colour of visiting the cities of Celesyria and Phenicia, but indeed to fulfil the king's purpose. 2 Ma. 3:8
And that some part of that which wicked Simon had given intelligence of belonged to Hircanus, son of Tobias, a man of great dignity; and that the whole was four hundred talents of silver, and two hundred of gold. 2 Ma. 3:11
But that to deceive them who had trusted to the place and temple which is honoured throughout the whole world, for the reverence and holiness of it, was a thing which could not by any means be done. 2 Ma. 3:12
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
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
But they praised the Lord, because he had glorified his place: and the temple, that a little before was full of fear and trouble, when the Almighty Lord appeared, was filled with joy and gladness. 2 Ma. 3:30
So the high priest, considering that the king might perhaps suspect that some mischief had been done to Heliodorus by the Jews, offered a sacrifice of health for the recovery of the man. 2 Ma. 3:32
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
And when the king asked Heliodorus, who might be a fit man to be sent yet once more to Jerusalem, he said: 2 Ma. 3:37
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
Not to be an accuser of his countrymen, but with a view to the common good of all the people. 2 Ma. 4:5
Besides this he promised also a hundred and fifty more, if he might have license to set him up a place for exercise, and a place for youth, and to entitle them that were at Jerusalem, Antiochians. 2 Ma. 4:9
For he had the boldness to set up, under the very castle, a place of exercise, and to put all the choicest youths in brothel houses. 2 Ma. 4:12
For the sake of which they incurred a dangerous contention, and followed earnestly their ordinances, and in all things they coveted to be like them, who were their enemies and murderers. 2 Ma. 4:16
Where he was received in a magnificent manner by Jason, and the city, and came in with torch lights, and with praises, and from thence he returned with his army into Phenicia. 2 Ma. 4:22
So having received the king's mandate, he returned, bringing nothing worthy of the high priesthood: but having the mind of a cruel tyrant, and the rage of a savage beast. 2 Ma. 4:25
Then Jason, who had undermined his own brother, being himself undermined, was driven out a fugitive into the country of the Ammonites. 2 Ma. 4:26
When these things were in doing, it fell out that they of Tharsus, and Mallos, raised a sedition, because they were given for a gift to Antiochus, the king's concubine. 2 Ma. 4:30
Then Menelaus supposing that he had found a convenient time, having stolen certain vessels of gold out of the temple, gave them to Andronicus, and others he had sold at Tyre, and in the neighbouring cities: 2 Ma. 4:32
Which when Onias understood most certainly, he reproved him, keeping himself in a safe place at Antioch, beside Daphne. 2 Ma. 4:33
For which cause not only the Jews, but also the other nations, conceived indignation, and were much grieved for the unjust murder of so great a man. 2 Ma. 4:35
Now when many sacrileges had been committed by Lysimachus in the temple, by the counsel of Menelaus, and the rumour of it was spread abroad, the multitude gathered themselves together against Lysimachus, a great quantity of gold being already carried away. 2 Ma. 4:39
Wherefore the multitude making an insurrection, and their minds being filled with anger, Lysimachus armed about three thousand men, and began to use violence, one Tyrannus being captain, a man far gone both in age and in madness. 2 Ma. 4:40
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
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 5:0">¤a> At the same time Antiochus prepared for a second journey into Egypt. 2 Ma. 5:1
And horses set in order by ranks, running one against another, with the shakings of shields, and a multitude of men in helmets, with drawn swords, and casting of darts, and glittering of golden armour, and of harnesses of all sorts. 2 Ma. 5:3
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
But Jason slew his countrymen without mercy, not considering that prosperity against one's own kindred is a very great evil, thinking they had been enemies, and not citizens, whom he conquered. 2 Ma. 5:6
At the last, having been shut up by Aretas, the king of the Arabians, in order for his destruction, flying from city to city, hated by all men, as a forsaker of the laws and execrable, as an enemy of his country and countrymen, he was thrust out into Egypt: 2 Ma. 5:8
And he that had driven many out of their country perished in a strange land, going to Lacedemon, as if for kindred sake he should have refuge there: 2 Ma. 5:9
Now when these things were done, the king suspected that the Jews would forsake the alliance: whereupon departing out of Egypt with a furious mind, he took the city by force of arms, 2 Ma. 5:11
Thus there was a slaughter of young and old, destruction of women and children, and killing of virgins and infants. 2 Ma. 5:13
Thus Antiochus going astray in mind, did not consider that God was angry for a while, because of the sins of the inhabitants of the city: and therefore this contempt had happened to the place: 2 Ma. 5:17
So when Antiochus had taken away out of the temple a thousand and eight hundred talents, he went back in all haste to Antioch, thinking through pride that he might now make the land navigable, and the sea passable on foot: such was the haughtiness of his mind. 2 Ma. 5:21
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 in Gazarim, Andronicus and Menelaus, who bore a more heavy hand upon the citizens than the rest. 2 Ma. 5:23
And he slew all that were come forth to flee: and running through the city with armed men, he destroyed a very great multitude. 2 Ma. 5:26
But Judas Machabeus, who <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 5:27">was the tentha>, had withdrawn himself into a desert place, and there lived amongst wild beasts in the mountains with his company: and they continued feeding on herbs, that they might not be partakers of the pollution. 2 Ma. 5:27
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 6:0">¤a> But not long after the king sent a certain old man of Antioch, to compel the Jews to depart from the laws of their fathers and of God: 2 Ma. 6:1
And neither were the sabbaths kept, nor the solemn days of the fathers observed, neither did any man plainly profess himself to be a Jew. 2 Ma. 6:6
And there went out a decree into the neighbouring cities of the Gentiles, by the suggestion of the Ptolemeans, that they also should act in like manner against the Jews, to oblige them to sacrifice: 2 Ma. 6:8
And others that had met together in caves that were near, and were keeping the sabbath day privately, being discovered by <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 6:11">Philipa>, were burnt with fire, because they made a conscience to help themselves with their hands, by reason of the religious observance of the day. 2 Ma. 6:11
For it is a token of great goodness, when sinners are not suffered to go on in their ways for a long time, but are presently punished. 2 Ma. 6:13
But let this suffice in a few words for a warning to the readers. And now we must come to the narration. 2 Ma. 6:17
Eleazar one of the chief of the scribes, a man advanced in years, and of a comely countenance, was pressed to open his mouth to eat swine's flesh. 2 Ma. 6:18
But he, choosing rather a most glorious death than a hateful life, went forward voluntarily to the torment. 2 Ma. 6:19
But he began to consider the dignity of his age, and his ancient years, and the inbred honour of his grey head, and his good life and conversation from a child; and he answered without delay, according to the ordinances of the holy law made by God, saying, that he would rather be sent into the other world. 2 Ma. 6:23
And so they, through my dissimulation, and for a little time of a corruptible life, should be deceived, and hereby I should bring a stain and a curse upon my old age. 2 Ma. 6:25
And I shall leave an example of fortitude to young men, if with a ready mind and constancy I suffer an honourable death, for the most venerable and most holy laws. And having spoken thus, he was forthwith carried to execution. 2 Ma. 6:28
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
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
But stay patiently a while, and thou shalt see his great power, in what manner he will torment thee and thy seed. 2 Ma. 7:17
Now the mother was to be admired above measure, and worthy to be remembered by good men, who beheld her seven sons slain in the space of one day, and bore it with a good courage, for the hope that she had in God: 2 Ma. 7:20
And she bravely exhorted every one of them in her own language, being filled with wisdom; and joining a man's heart to a woman's thought, 2 Ma. 7:21
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 thou shalt not fear this tormentor, but being made a worthy partner with thy brethren, receive death, that in that mercy I may receive thee again with thy brethren. 2 Ma. 7:29
And though the Lord, our God, is angry with us a little while, for our chastisement and correction, yet he will be reconciled again to his servants. 2 Ma. 7:33
For my brethren having now undergone a short pain, are under the covenant of eternal life: but thou, by the judgment of God, shalt receive just punishment for thy pride. 2 Ma. 7:36
Now when Machabeus had gathered a multitude, he could not be withstood by the heathens: for the wrath of the Lord was turned into mercy. 2 Ma. 8:5
And he with all speed sent Nicanor, the son of Patroclus, one of his special friends, giving him no fewer than <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 8:9">twenty thousanda> 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
For, said he, they trust in their weapons, and in their boldness: but we trust in the Almighty Lord, who at a beck can utterly destroy both them that come against us, and the whole world. 2 Ma. 8:18
Moreover, he put them in mind also of the helps their fathers had received from God: and how, under Sennacherib, a hundred and eighty-five thousand had been destroyed. 2 Ma. 8:19
And of the battle that they had fought against the <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 8:20">Galatiansa>, in Babylonia; how they, being in all but six thousand, when it came to the point, and the Macedonians, their companions, were at a stand, slew a hundred and twenty thousand, because of the help they had from heaven, and for this they received many favours. 2 Ma. 8:20
And after the holy book had been read to them by Esdras, and he had given them for a watchword, The help of God: himself leading the first band, he joined battle with Nicanor: 2 Ma. 8:23
When this was done, and they had all made a common supplication, they besought the merciful Lord, to be reconciled to his servants unto the end. 2 Ma. 8:29
They slew also Philarches, who was with Timotheus, a wicked man, who had many ways afflicted the Jews. 2 Ma. 8:32
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
But as for that most wicked man, Nicanor, who had brought a thousand merchants to the sale of the Jews, 2 Ma. 8:34
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
Moreover, being filled with pride, breathing out fire in his rage against the Jews, and commanding the matter to be hastened, it happened as he was going with violence, that he fell from the chariot, so that his limbs were much pained by a grievous bruising of the body. 2 Ma. 9:7
Thus he that seemed to himself to command even the waves of the sea, being proud above the condition of man, and to weigh the heights of the mountains in a balance, now being cast down to the ground, was carried in a litter, bearing witness to the manifest power of God in himself: 2 Ma. 9:8
And the man that thought a little before he could reach to the stars of heaven, no man could endure to carry, for the intolerable stench. 2 Ma. 9:10
And when he himself could not now abide his own stench, he spoke thus: It is just to be subject to God, and that a mortal man should not equal himself to God. 2 Ma. 9:12
And the city, to which he was going in haste to lay it even with the ground, and to make it a common burying place, he now desireth to make free: 2 Ma. 9:14
Yea also, that he would become a Jew himself, and would go through every place of the earth, and declare the power of God. 2 Ma. 9:17
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
As for me, being infirm, but yet kindly remembering you, returning out of the places of Persia, and being taken with a grievous disease, I thought it necessary to take care for the common good: 2 Ma. 9:21
Thus the murderer and blasphemer being grievously struck, as himself had treated others, died a miserable death in a strange country, among the mountains. 2 Ma. 9:28
And they ordained by a common statute, and decree, that all the nation of the Jews should keep those days every year. 2 Ma. 10:8
Then they that were with Machabeus, beseeching the Lord by prayers to be their helper, made a strong attack upon the strong holds of the Idumeans: 2 Ma. 10:16
And whereas some were fled into very strong towers, having all manner of provision to sustain a siege, 2 Ma. 10:18
But Timotheus, who before had been overcome by the Jews, having called together a multitude of foreign troops, and assembled horsemen out of Asia, came as though he would take Judea by force of arms. 2 Ma. 10:24
But as soon as the sun was risen both sides joined battle: the one part having, with their valour, the Lord for a surety of victory, and success: but the other side making their rage their leader in battle. 2 Ma. 10:28
But Timotheus fled into Gazara, a strong hold where Chereas was governor. 2 Ma. 10:32
And having for two days together pillaged and sacked the fortress, they killed <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 10:37">Timotheusa>, who was found hid in a certain place: they slew also his brother Chereas, and Apollophanes. 2 Ma. 10:37
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 11:0">¤a> A short time after this Lysias, the king's lieutenant, and cousin, and who had chief charge over all the affairs, being greatly displeased with what had happened, 2 Ma. 11:1
Gathered together fourscore thousand men, and all the horsemen, and came against the Jews, thinking to take the city, and make it a habitation of the Gentiles: 2 Ma. 11:2
And to make a gain of the temple, as of the other temples of the Gentiles and to set the high priesthood to sale every year: 2 Ma. 11:3
So he came into Judea, and approaching to Bethsura, which was in a narrow place, the space of five furlongs from Jerusalem, he laid siege to that fortress. 2 Ma. 11:5
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
And when they were going forth together with a willing mind, there appeared at Jerusalem a horseman going before them in white clothing, with golden armour, shaking a spear. 2 Ma. 11:8
So they went on courageously, having a helper from heaven, and the Lord, who shewed mercy to them. 2 Ma. 11:10
And as he was a man of understanding, considering with himself the loss he had suffered, and perceiving that the Hebrews could not be overcome, because they relied upon the help of the Almighty God, he sent to them: 2 Ma. 11:13
If, therefore, you will keep yourselves loyal in affairs, hereafter also I will endeavour to be a means of your good. 2 Ma. 11:19
We grant, therefore, a safe conduct to all that come and go, until the thirtieth day of the month of Xanthicus, 2 Ma. 11:30
The Romans also sent them a letter, to this effect: Quintus Memmius, and Titus Manilius, ambassadors of the Romans, to the people of the Jews, greeting. 2 Ma. 11:34
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
He also laid siege to a certain strong city, encompassed with bridges and walls, and inhabited by multitudes of different nations, the name of which is Casphin. 2 Ma. 12:13
But they that were within it, trusting in the strength of the walls, and the provision of victuals, behaved in a more negligent manner, and provoked Judas with railing and blaspheming, and uttering such words as were not to be spoken. 2 Ma. 12:14
And having taken the city by the will of the Lord, he made an unspeakable slaughter, so that a pool adjoining, of two furlongs broad, seemed to run with the blood of the slain. 2 Ma. 12:16
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 after he had put to flight and destroyed these, he removed his army to Ephron, a strong city, wherein there dwelt a multitude of divers nations: and stout young men standing upon the walls, made a vigorous resistance: and in this place there were many engines of war, and a provision of darts. 2 Ma. 12:27
And when they had joined battle, it happened that a few of the Jews were slain. 2 Ma. 12:34
But Dositheus, a horseman, one of Bacenor's band, a valiant man, took hold of Gorgias: and when he would have taken him alive, a certain horseman of the Thracians came upon him, and cut off his shoulder: and so Gorgias escaped to Maresa. 2 Ma. 12:35
Then beginning in his own language, and singing hymns with a loud voice, he put Gorgias' soldiers to flight. 2 Ma. 12:37
And making a gathering, he sent twelve thousand drachms of silver to Jerusalem for sacrifice to be offered for the sins of the dead, thinking well and religiously concerning the resurrection. 2 Ma. 12:43
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 12:46">It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the deada>, that they may be loosed from sins. 2 Ma. 12:46
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 13:0">¤a> In the year one hundred and forty-nine, Judas understood that Antiochus Eupator was coming with a multitude against Judea, 2 Ma. 13:1
And with him Lysias, the regent, who had charge over the affairs of the realm, having with him <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 13:2">a hundred and ten thousanda> footmen, five thousand horsemen, twenty-two elephants, and three hundred chariots, armed with hooks. 2 Ma. 13:2
Now there was in that place a tower fifty cubits high, having a heap of ashes on every side: this had a prospect steep down. 2 Ma. 13:5
And by such a law it happened that Menelaus the transgressor of the law, was put to death: not having so much as burial in the earth. 2 Ma. 13:7
Because they were afraid to be deprived of the law, and of their country, and of the holy temple: and that he would not suffer the people, that had of late taken breath for a little while, to be again in subjection to blasphemous nations. 2 Ma. 13:11
And having given his company for a watchword, The victory of God, with most valiant chosen young men, he set upon the king's quarter by night, and slew four thousand men in the camp, and the greatest of the elephants, with them that had been upon him, 2 Ma. 13:15
But the king having taken a taste of the hardiness of the Jews, attempted to take the strong places by policy: 2 Ma. 13:18
And he marched with his army to Bethsura, which was a strong hold of the Jews: but he was repulsed, he failed, he lost his men. 2 Ma. 13:19
He fought with Judas: and was overcome. And when he understood that Philip, who had been left over the affairs, had rebelled at Antioch, he was in a consternation of mind, and entreating the Jews, and yielding to them, he swore to all things that seemed reasonable, and, being reconciled, offered sacrifice, honoured the temple, and left gifts. 2 Ma. 13:23
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=x2ma 14:0">¤a> But after the space of three years Judas, and they that were with him, understood that Demetrius, the son of Seleucus, was come up with a great power, and a navy by the haven of Tripolis, to places proper for his purpose, 2 Ma. 14:1
Came to king Demetrius in the year one hundred and fifty, presenting unto him a crown of gold, and a palm, and besides these, some boughs that seemed to belong to the temple. And that day indeed he held his peace. 2 Ma. 14:4
But having gotten a convenient time to further his madness, being called to counsel by Demetrius, and asked what the Jews relied upon, and what were their counsels, 2 Ma. 14:5
And when there had been a consultation thereupon, and the captain had acquainted the multitude with it, they were all of one mind to consent to covenants. 2 Ma. 14:20
So they appointed a day upon which they might commune together by themselves: and seats were brought out, and set for each one. 2 Ma. 14:21
And he desired him to marry a wife, and to have children. So he married: he lived quietly, and they lived in common. 2 Ma. 14:25
But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor had assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor. 2 Ma. 14:26
Then the king, being in a rage, and provoked with this man's wicked accusation, wrote to Nicanor, signifying that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch. 2 Ma. 14:27
When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man. 2 Ma. 14:28
But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner; and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor. 2 Ma. 14:30
Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his kindness was called the father of the Jews. 2 Ma. 14:37
This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews' religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein. 2 Ma. 14:38
But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd: 2 Ma. 14:43
And as he had yet breath in him, being inflamed in mind, he arose: and while his blood ran down with a great stream, and he was grievously wounded, he ran through the crowd: 2 Ma. 14:45
And standing upon a steep rock, when he was now almost without blood, grasping his bowels, with both hands he cast them upon the throng, calling upon the Lord of life and spirit, to restore these to him again: and so he departed this life. 2 Ma. 14:46
That unhappy man asked, if there were a mighty One in heaven, that had commanded the sabbath day to be kept. 2 Ma. 15:3
So Nicanor being puffed up with exceeding great pride, thought to set up a public monument of his victory over Judas. 2 Ma. 15:6
So he armed every one of them, not with defence of shield and spear, but with very good speeches, and exhortations, and told them a dream worthy to be believed, whereby he rejoiced them all. 2 Ma. 15:11
Now the vision was in this manner. Onias, who had been high priest, a good and virtuous man, modest in his looks, gentle in his manners, and graceful in speech, and who from a child was exercised in virtues holding up his hands, prayed for all the people of the Jews: 2 Ma. 15:12
Then Onias answering, said: This is a lover of his brethren, and of the people of Israel: this is he that prayeth much for the people, and for all the holy city, Jeremias, the prophet of God. 2 Ma. 15:14
Whereupon Jeremias stretched forth his right hand, and gave to Judas a sword of gold, saying: 2 Ma. 15:15
Take this holy sword, a gift from God, wherewith thou shalt overthrow the adversaries of my people Israel. 2 Ma. 15:16
And in his prayer he said after this manner: Thou, O Lord, who didst send thy angel in the time of Ezechias, king of Juda, and didst kill a hundred and eighty-five thousand of the army of Sennacherib: 2 Ma. 15:22
Then making a shout, and a great noise, they blessed the Almighty Lord in their own language. 2 Ma. 15:29
And they all ordained by a common decree, by no means to let this day pass without solemnity: 2 Ma. 15:36
Whereupon Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was minded to put her away privately. Mt. 1:19
And she shall bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name Jesus. For he shall save his people from their sins. Mt. 1:21
Behold a virgin shall be with child, and bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Mt. 1:23
A voice in Rama was heard, lamentation and great mourning; Rachel bewailing her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not. Mt. 2:18
And coming he dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was said by the prophets: That he shall be called a Nazarene. Mt. 2:23
For this is he that was spoken of by Isaias the prophet, saying: A voice of one crying in the desert, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight his paths. Mt. 3:3
And the same John had his garment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins: and his meat was locusts and wild honey. Mt. 3:4

And said to him: If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down, for it is written: That he hath given his angels charge over thee, and in their hands shall they bear thee up, lest perhaps thou dash thy foot against a stone. Mt. 4:6
Again the devil took him up into a very high mountain, and <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=mt 4:8">shewed hima> all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them, Mt. 4:8
And Jesus walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishers). Mt. 4:18
And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets: and he called them. Mt. 4:21
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=mt 5:0">¤a> And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain, and when he was set down, his disciples came unto him. Mt. 5:1
You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid. Mt. 5:14
Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house. Mt. 5:15
But I say to you, that whosoever shall look on a woman to lust after her, hath already committed adultery with her in his heart. Mt. 5:28
And it hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce. Mt. 5:31
You have heard that it hath been said: An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. Mt. 5:38
And if a man will contend with thee in judgment, and take away thy coat, let go thy cloak also unto him. Mt. 5:40
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=mt 6:0">¤a> Take heed that you do not <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=mt 6:1">your justicea> before men, to be seen by them: otherwise you shall not have a reward of your Father who is in heaven. Mt. 6:1
Therefore when thou dost an alms-deed, sound not a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be honoured by men. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward. Mt. 6:2
Or how sayest thou to thy brother: Let me cast the mote out of thy eye; and behold a beam is in thy own eye? Mt. 7:4
Or what man is there among you, of whom if his son shall ask bread, will he reach him a stone? Mt. 7:9
Or if he shall ask him a fish, will he reach him a serpent? Mt. 7:10
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can an evil tree bring forth good fruit. Mt. 7:18
Every one therefore that heareth these my words, and doth them, shall be likened to a wise man that built his house upon a rock, Mt. 7:24
And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house, and it fell not, for it was founded on a rock. Mt. 7:25
And every one that heareth these my words and doth them not, shall be like a foolish man that built his house upon the sand, Mt. 7:26
And behold a leper came and adored him, saying: Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. Mt. 8:2
And Jesus saith to him: See thou tell no man: but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. Mt. 8:4
And when he had entered into Capharnaum, there came to him a centurion, beseeching him, Mt. 8:5
For I also am a man subject to authority, having under me soldiers; and I say to this, Go, and he goeth, and to another Come, and he cometh, and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. Mt. 8:9
And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother lying, and sick of a fever; Mt. 8:14

And there was, not far from them, a herd of many swine feeding. Mt. 8:30
And he said to them: Go. But they going out went into the swine, and behold the whole herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea: and they perished in the waters. Mt. 8:32
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=mt 9:0">¤a> And entering into a boat, he passed over the water and came into his own city. Mt. 9:1

And Jesus going out saw a great multitude: and he had compassion on them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd, and he began to teach them many things. Mk. 6:34
And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came to him, saying: This is a desert place, and the hour is now past: Mk. 6:35
For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he spoke with them, and said to them: Have a good heart, it is I, fear ye not. Mk. 6:50

And he saith to them: So are you also without knowledge? Understand you not that every thing from without entering into a man cannot defile him: Mk. 7:18
But he said that: The things which come out from a man, they defile a man. Mk. 7:20
All these evil things come from within and defile a man. Mk. 7:23
And rising from thence he went into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon: and entering into a house, he would that no man should know it. And he could not be hid. Mk. 7:24
For a woman as soon as she heard of him, whose daughter had an unclean spirit, came in and fell down at his feet. Mk. 7:25
For the woman was a Gentile, a Syrophenician born. And she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter. Mk. 7:26
And he charged them that they should tell no man. But the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal did they publish it. Mk. 7:36
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=mr 8:0">¤a> In those days again, when there was a great multitude and they had nothing to eat; calling his disciples together, he saith to them: Mk. 8:1

And taking a child, he set him in the midst of them. Whom when he had embraced, he saith to them: Mk. 9:36

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. Mk. 10:25

And he taught, saying to them: Is it not written: My house shall be called the house of prayer to all nations, but you have made it a den of thieves. Mk. 11:17

<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=mr 12:0">¤a> And he began to speak to them in parables: A certain man planted a vineyard and made a hedge about it and dug a place for the winefat and built a tower and let it to husbandmen: and went into a far country. Mk. 12:1
And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant to receive of the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard. Mk. 12:2
Who coming, say to him: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker and carest not for any man; for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar? Mk. 12:14
Or shall we not give it? Who knowing their wiliness, saith to them: Why tempt you me? Bring me a penny that I may see it. Mk. 12:15
Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife and died leaving no issue. Mk. 12:20
And that he should be loved with the whole heart and with the whole understanding and with the whole soul and with the whole strength. And to love one's neighbour as one's self is a greater thing than all holocausts and sacrifices. Mk. 12:33
David therefore himself calleth him Lord. And whence is he then his son? And a great multitude heard him gladly. Mk. 12:37
And there came a certain poor widow: and she cast in two mites, which make a farthing. Mk. 12:42
And Jesus answering, said to him: Seest thou all these great buildings? There shall not be left a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down. Mk. 13:2

And they came to a farm called Gethsemani. And he saith to his disciples: Sit you here, while I pray. Mk. 14:32
And when he was gone forward a little, he fell flat on the ground: and he prayed that, if it might be, the hour might pass from him. Mk. 14:35
And while he was yet speaking, cometh Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve: and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients. Mk. 14:43
And he that betrayed him had given them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he. Lay hold on him: and lead him away carefully. Mk. 14:44

And a certain young man followed him, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body. And they laid hold on him. Mk. 14:51
And again a maidservant seeing him, began to say to the standers by: This is one of them. Mk. 14:69
But he denied again. And after a, while they that stood by said again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art also a Galilean. Mk. 14:70
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=mr 15:0">¤a> And straightway in the morning, the chief priests holding a consultation with the ancients and the scribes and the whole council, binding Jesus, led him away and delivered him to Pilate. Mk. 15:1
And they clothed him with purple: and, platting a crown of thorns, they put it upon him. Mk. 15:17

And one running and filling a sponge with vinegar and putting it upon a reed, gave him to drink, saying: Stay, let us see if Elias come to take him down. Mk. 15:36
And Jesus, having cried out with a loud voice, gave up the ghost. Mk. 15:37
Joseph of Arimathea, a noble counsellor, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus. Mk. 15:43
And Joseph, buying fine linen and taking him down, wrapped him up in the fine linen and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewed out of a rock. And he rolled a stone to the door of the sepulchre. Mk. 15:46
And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed with a white robe: and they were astonished. Mk. 16:5
But they going out, fled from the sepulchre: for a trembling and fear had seized them. And they said nothing to any man: for they were afraid. Mk. 16:8
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=lu 0:0">‡a> <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=lu 1:0">¤a> Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a narration of the things that have been accomplished among us, Lk. 1:1

And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth, Lk. 1:26
To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David: and the virgin's name was Mary. Lk. 1:27

And this shall be a sign unto you. You shall find the infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger. Lk. 2:12
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army, praising God and saying: Lk. 2:13
And to offer a sacrifice, according as it is written in the law of the Lord, a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons: Lk. 2:24
And behold there was a man in Jerusalem named Simeon: and this man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Ghost was in him. Lk. 2:25

And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother: Behold this child is set <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=lu 2:34">for the falla> and for the resurrection of many in Israel and for a sign which shall be contradicted. Lk. 2:34

In truth I say to You, there were many widows in the days of Elias in Israel, when heaven was shut up three years and six months, when there was a great famine throughout all the earth. Lk. 4:25
And to none of them was Elias sent, but to Sarepta of Sidon, to a widow woman. Lk. 4:26
And he went down into Capharnaum, a city of Galilee: and there he taught them on the sabbath days. Lk. 4:31
And in the synagogue there was a man who had an unclean devil: and he cried out with a loud voice, Lk. 4:33
And Jesus rising up out of the synagogue, went into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother was taken with a great fever: and they besought him for her. Lk. 4:38

And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: And there was a great company of publicans and of others that were at table with them. Lk. 5:29
And he spoke also a similitude to them: That no man putteth a piece from a new garment upon an old garment: otherwise he both rendeth the new, and the piece taken from the new agreeth not with the old. Lk. 5:36
And no man drinking old hath presently a mind to new: for he saith: The old is better. Lk. 5:39

And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray: and he passed the whole night in the prayer of God. Lk. 6:12
And coming down with them, he stood in a plain place: and the company of his disciples and a very great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the sea coast, both of Tyre and Sidon, who were come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases. Lk. 6:17
And he spoke also to them a similitude: Can the blind lead the blind? Do they not both fall into the ditch? Lk. 6:39
For every tree is known by its fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns: nor from a bramble bush do they gather the grape. Lk. 6:44
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth that which is evil. For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. Lk. 6:45
He is like to a man building a house, who digged deep and laid the foundation upon a rock. And when a flood came, the stream beat vehemently upon that house: and it could not shake it: for it was founded on a rock. Lk. 6:48
But he that heareth and doth not is like to a man building his house upon the earth without a foundation: against which the stream beat vehemently. And immediately it fell: and the ruin of that house was great. Lk. 6:49
And the servant of a certain centurion who was dear to him, being sick, was ready to die. Lk. 7:2

And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak to the multitudes concerning John. What went ye out into the desert to see? A reed shaken with the wind? Lk. 7:24
But what went you out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Behold they that are in costly apparel and live delicately are in the houses of kings. Lk. 7:25
But what went you out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet. Lk. 7:26
For I say to you: Amongst those that are born of women, there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist. But he that is the lesser in the kingdom of God is greater than he. Lk. 7:28
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine. And you say: He hath a devil. Lk. 7:33
The Son of man is come eating and drinking. And you say: Behold a man that is a glutton and a drinker of wine, a friend of publicans and sinners. Lk. 7:34
And behold a woman that was in the city, a sinner, when she knew that he sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment. Lk. 7:37

And other some fell upon good ground and, being sprung up, yielded fruit a hundredfold. Saying these things, he cried out: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Lk. 8:8
Now they upon the rock are they who when they hear receive the word with joy: and these have no roots: for they believe for a while and in time of temptation they fall away. Lk. 8:13
But that on the good ground are they who in a good and perfect heart, hearing the word, keep it and bring forth fruit in patience. Lk. 8:15
Now no man lighting a candle covereth it with a vessel or putteth it under a bed: but setteth it upon a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light. Lk. 8:16
And it came to pass on a certain day that he went into a little ship with his disciples. And he said to them: Let us go over to the other side of the lake. And they launched forth. Lk. 8:22
And when they were sailing, he slept. And there came down a storm of wind upon the lake: and they were filled and were in danger. Lk. 8:23

And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off even the dust of your feet, for a testimony against them. Lk. 9:5
Now Herod, the tetrarch, heard of all things that were done by him. And he was in a doubt, because it was said by some that John was risen from the dead: Lk. 9:7
And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all they had done. And taking them, he went aside into a desert place, apart, which belongeth to Bethsaida. Lk. 9:10

And as he spoke these things, there came a cloud and overshadowed them. And they were afraid when they entered into the cloud. Lk. 9:34
And a voice came out of the cloud; saying: This is my beloved son. Hear him. Lk. 9:35
And it came to pass the day following, when they came down from the mountain, there met him a great multitude. Lk. 9:37
And behold a man among the crowd cried out, saying: Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son, because he is my only one. Lk. 9:38
And lo, a spirit seizeth him, and he suddenly crieth out, and he throweth him down and teareth him, so that he foameth; and bruising him, he hardly departeth from him. Lk. 9:39

But Jesus seeing the thoughts of their heart, took a child and set him by him, Lk. 9:47
And John, answering, said: Master, we saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name: and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us. Lk. 9:49

And she had a sister called Mary, who, sitting also at the Lord's feet, heard his word. Lk. 10:39
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=lu 11:0">¤a> And it came to pass that as he was in a certain place praying, when he ceased, one of his disciples said to him: Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples. Lk. 11:1

When thou art invited to a wedding, sit not down in the first place, lest perhaps one more honourable than thou be invited by him: Lk. 14:8

And he would not for a long time. But afterwards he said within himself: Although I fear not God nor regard man, Lk. 18:4
Two men went up into the temple to pray: the one a Pharisee and the other a publican. Lk. 18:10
I fast twice in a week: I give tithes of all that I possess. Lk. 18:12

Saying to them: It is written: My house is the house of prayer. But you have made it a den of thieves. Lk. 19:46

And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in two brass mites. Lk. 21:2

And he said to them: Behold, as you go into the city, there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow him into the house where he entereth in. Lk. 22:10
And he will shew you a large dining room, furnished. And there prepare. Lk. 22:12
And taking bread, he gave thanks and brake and gave to them, saying: This is my body, which is given for you. <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=lu 22:19">Do this for a commemoration of mea>. Lk. 22:19
And there was also a strife amongst them, which of them should seem to be the greater. Lk. 22:24
And I dispose to you, as my Father hath disposed to me, a kingdom; Lk. 22:29
Then said he unto them: But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a scrip: and he that hath not, let him sell his coat and buy a sword. Lk. 22:36
And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast. And kneeling down, he prayed. Lk. 22:41
As he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus, for to kiss him. Lk. 22:47

And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him: for he is also a Galilean. Lk. 22:59
And Herod seeing Jesus, was very glad: for he was desirous of a long time to see him, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to see some sign wrought by him. Lk. 23:8
And Herod with his army set him at nought and mocked him, putting on him a white garment: and sent him back to Pilate. Lk. 23:11
Who, for a certain sedition made in the city and for a murder, was cast into prison. Lk. 23:19
And there followed him a great multitude of people and of women, who bewailed and lamented him. Lk. 23:27

And Jesus crying with a loud voice, said: Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit. And saying this, he gave up the ghost. Lk. 23:46
Now, the centurion, seeing what was done, glorified God, saying: Indeed this was a just man. Lk. 23:47
And behold there was a man named Joseph who was a counsellor, a good and a just man, Lk. 23:50
(The same had not consented to their counsel and doings) of Arimathea, a city of Judea: who also himself looked for the kingdom of God. Lk. 23:51
And taking him down, he wrapped him in fine linen and laid him in a sepulchre that was hewed in stone, wherein never yet any man had been laid. Lk. 23:53

To whom he said: What things? And they said: Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people. Lk. 24:19
And not finding his body, came, saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who say that he is alive. Lk. 24:23
But they being troubled and frightened, supposed that they saw a spirit. Lk. 24:37
See my hands and feet, that it is I myself. Handle, and see: for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as you see me to have. Lk. 24:39
And they offered him a piece of a broiled fish and a honeycomb. Lk. 24:42
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. Jn. 1:6
This man came for a witness, to give testimony of the light, that all men might believe through him. Jn. 1:7
This is he of whom I said: After me there cometh a man, who is preferred before me: because he was before me. Jn. 1:30
And John gave testimony, saying: I saw the Spirit coming down, as a dove from heaven; and he remained upon him. Jn. 1:32
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=joh 2:0">¤a> And the third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there. Jn. 2:1
And when he had made, as it were, a scourge of little cords, he drove them all out of the temple, the sheep also and the oxen: and the money of the changers he poured out, and the tables he overthrew. Jn. 2:15
And to them that sold doves he said: Take these things hence, and make not the house of my Father a house of traffic. Jn. 2:16
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=joh 3:0">¤a> And there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. Jn. 3:1
This man came to Jesus by night and said to him: Rabbi, we know that thou art come a teacher from God; for no man can do these signs which thou dost, unless God be with him. Jn. 3:2
Jesus answered and said to him: Amen, amen, I say to thee, unless a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Jn. 3:3
Nicodemus saith to him: How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born again? Jn. 3:4
Jesus answered: Amen, amen, I say to thee, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=joh 3:5">unless a man be born againa> of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. Jn. 3:5
Jesus answered and said to him: Art thou a master in Israel, and knowest not these things? Jn. 3:10
And there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews, concerning purification. Jn. 3:25
John answered and said: A man cannot receive any thing, unless it be given him from heaven. Jn. 3:27
He cometh therefore to a city of Samaria, which is called Sichar, near the land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Jn. 4:5
There cometh a woman of Samaria, to draw water. Jesus saith to her: Give me to drink. Jn. 4:7
Then that Samaritan woman saith to him: How dost thou, being a Jew; ask of me to drink, who am a Samaritan woman? For the Jews do not communicate with the Samaritans. Jn. 4:9
But he that shall drink of the water that I will give him shall not thirst for ever. But the water that I will give him shall become in him a fountain of water, springing up into life everlasting. Jn. 4:14
The woman saith to him: Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. Jn. 4:19
God is a spirit: and they that adore him must adore him in spirit and in truth. Jn. 4:24
Come, and see a man who has told me all things whatsoever I have done. Is not he the Christ? Jn. 4:29
For Jesus himself gave testimony that a prophet hath no honour in his own country. Jn. 4:44
He came again therefore into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capharnaum. Jn. 4:46
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=joh 5:0">¤a> After these things was a festival day of the Jews: and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Jn. 5:1
Now there is at Jerusalem a pond, called <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=joh 5:2">Probaticaa>, which in Hebrew is named Bethsaida, having five porches. Jn. 5:2
In these lay a great multitude of sick, of blind, of lame, of withered: waiting for the moving of the water. Jn. 5:3
And there was a certain man there that had been eight and thirty years under his infirmity. Jn. 5:5
Him when Jesus had seen lying, and knew that he had been now a long time, he saith to him: Wilt thou be made whole? Jn. 5:6
He was a burning and a shining light: and you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light. Jn. 5:35
But I have a greater testimony than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to perfect, the works themselves which I do, give testimony of me, that the Father hath sent me. Jn. 5:36
And a great multitude followed him, because they saw the miracles which he did on them that were diseased. Jn. 6:2
Jesus therefore went up into a mountain: and there he sat with his disciples. Jn. 6:3
When Jesus therefore had lifted up his eyes and seen that a very great multitude cometh to him, he said to Philip: Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? Jn. 6:5
Philip answered him: Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them that every one may take a little. Jn. 6:7
There is a boy here that hath five barley loaves and two fishes. But what are these among so many? Jn. 6:9
Now those men, when they had seen what a miracle Jesus had done, said: This is of a truth the prophet that is to come into the world. Jn. 6:14
And when they had gone up into a ship, they went over the sea to Capharnaum. And it was now dark: and Jesus was not come unto them. Jn. 6:17
And the sea arose, by reason of a great wind that blew. Jn. 6:18
Jesus answered them: Have not I chosen you twelve? And one of you is a devil. Jn. 6:70
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
The multitude answered and said: Thou hast a devil. Who seeketh to kill thee? Jn. 7:20
Therefore, Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers): and on the sabbath day you circumcise a man. Jn. 7:22
If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken: are you angry at me, because I have healed the whole man on the sabbath day? Jn. 7:23
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
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
So there arose a dissension among the people because of him. Jn. 7:43
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 the scribes and Pharisees bring unto him a woman taken in adultery: and they set her in the midst, Jn. 8:3
Now Moses in the law commanded us to stone such a one. But what sayest thou? Jn. 8:5
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
But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not. Jn. 8:40
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
Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father. And you have dishonoured me. Jn. 8:49
The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets: and thou sayest: If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death for ever. Jn. 8:52
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
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=joh 9:0">¤a> And Jesus passing by, saw a man who was blind from his birth. Jn. 9:1
The neighbours, therefore, and they who had seen him before that he was a beggar, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? Jn. 9:8
Some therefore of the Pharisees said: This man is not of God, who keepeth not the sabbath. But others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them. Jn. 9:16
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
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
He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not. One thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see. Jn. 9:25
The man answered and said to them: why, herein is a wonderful thing, that you know not from whence he is, and he hath opened my eyes. Jn. 9:30
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
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=joh 10:0">¤a> Amen, amen, I say to you: He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold but climbeth up another way, the same is a thief and a robber. Jn. 10:1
But a stranger they follow not, but fly from him, because they know not the voice of strangers. Jn. 10:5
And the hireling flieth, because he is a hireling: and he hath no care for the sheep. Jn. 10:13
A dissension rose again among the Jews for these words. Jn. 10:19
And many of them said: He hath a devil and is mad. Why hear you him? Jn. 10:20
Others said: These are not the words of one that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind? Jn. 10:21
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
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=joh 11:0">¤a> Now there was a certain man sick, named Lazarus, of Bethania, of the town of Mary and of Martha her sister. Jn. 11:1
Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours of the day? If a man walk in the day he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world: Jn. 11:9
Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it. Jn. 11:38
When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth. Jn. 11:43
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
The chief priests, therefore, and the Pharisees gathered a council and said: What do we, for this man doth many miracles? Jn. 11:47
Wherefore Jesus walked no more openly among the Jews: but he went into a country near the desert, unto a city that is called Ephrem. And there he abode with his disciples. Jn. 11:54
And the chief priests and Pharisees had given a commandment that, if any man knew where he was, he should tell, that they might apprehend him. Jn. 11:57
And they made him a supper there: and Martha served. But Lazarus was one of them that were at table with him. Jn. 12:2
Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of right spikenard, of great price, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. Jn. 12:3

And when he had given him leave, Paul standing on the stairs, beckoned with his hand to the people. And a great silence being made, he spoke unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying: Acts 21:40
And he saith: I am a Jew, born at Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city, at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the truth of the law of the fathers, zealous for the law, as also all you are this day: Acts 22:3
And it came to pass, as I was going and drawing nigh to Damascus, at mid-day, that suddenly from heaven there shone round about me a great light: Acts 22:6
And falling on the ground, I heard a voice saying to me: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? Acts 22:7
And one Ananias, a man according to the law, having testimony of all the Jews who dwelt there, Acts 22:12
And it came to pass, when I was come again to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, that I was in a trance, Acts 22:17
And when they had bound him with thongs, Paul saith to the centurion that stood by him: Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman and uncondemned? Acts 22:25
Which the centurion hearing, went to the tribune and told him, saying: What art thou about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen. Acts 22:26
And the tribune coming, said to him: Tell me. Art thou a Roman? But he said: Yea. Acts 22:27
And the tribune answered: I obtained the being free of this city with a great sum. And Paul said: But I was born so. Acts 22:28
Immediately therefore they departed from him that were about to torture him. The tribune also was afraid after he understood that he was a Roman citizen and because he had bound him. Acts 22:29
And Paul, knowing that the one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, cried out in the council: Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of Pharisees: concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question. Acts 23:6
And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees. And the multitude was divided. Acts 23:7
And there arose a great cry. And some of the Pharisees rising up, strove, saying: We find no evil in this man. What if a spirit hath spoken to him, or an angel? Acts 23:9
And when there arose a great dissension, the tribune, fearing lest Paul should be pulled in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and to take him by force from among them and to bring him into the castle. Acts 23:10
And when day was come, some of the Jews gathered together and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they killed Paul. Acts 23:12
Who came to the chief priests and the ancients and said: We have bound ourselves under a great curse that we will eat nothing till we have slain Paul. Acts 23:14
But do not thou give credit to them: for there lie in wait for him more than forty men of them, who have bound themselves by oath neither to eat nor to drink, till they have killed him. And they are now ready, looking for a promise from thee. Acts 23:21
(For he feared lest perhaps the Jews might take him away by force and kill him: and he should afterwards be slandered, as if he was to take money.) And he wrote a letter after this manner: Acts 23:25
This man, being taken by the Jews and ready to be killed by them, I rescued, coming in with an army, understanding that he is a Roman. Acts 23:27
But that I be no further tedious to thee, I desire thee of thy clemency to hear us in a few words. Acts 24:4
We have found this to be a pestilent man and raising seditions among all the Jews throughout the world: and author of the sedition of the sect of the Nazarenes. Acts 24:5
Then Paul answered (the governor making a sign to him to speak): Knowing that for many years thou hast been judge over this nation, I will with good courage answer for myself. Acts 24:10
But this I confess to thee that according to the way which they call a heresy, so do I serve the Father and my God, believing all things which are written in the law and the prophets: Acts 24:14
Having hope in God, which these also themselves look for, that there shall be a resurrection of the just and unjust. Acts 24:15
And herein do I endeavour to have always a conscience without offence, towards God and towards men. Acts 24:16
And he commanded a centurion to keep him: and that he should be easy and that he should not prohibit any of his friends to minister unto him. Acts 24:23
And after some days, Felix, coming with Drusilla his wife, who was a Jew, sent for Paul and heard of him the faith that is in Christ Jesus. Acts 24:24
And as he treated of justice and chastity and of the judgment to come, Felix, being terrified, answered: For this time, go thy way: but when I have a convenient time, I will send for thee. Acts 24:25
But when two years were ended, Felix had for successor Portius Festus. And Felix being willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, left Paul bound. Acts 24:27
But Festus, willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, answering Paul, said: Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem and there be judged of these things before me? Acts 25:9
And as they tarried there many days, Festus told the king of Paul, saying: A certain man was left prisoner by Felix. Acts 25:14
I therefore being in a doubt of this manner of question, asked him whether he would go to Jerusalem and there be judged of these things. Acts 25:20
For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner and not to signify the things laid to his charge. Acts 25:27
Having known me from the beginning (if they will give testimony) that according to the most sure sect of our religion I lived, a Pharisee. Acts 26:5
Why should it be thought a thing incredible that God should raise the dead? Acts 26:8
At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them that were in company with me. Acts 26:13
And when we were all fallen down on the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me in the Hebrew tongue: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? It is hard for thee to kick against the goad. Acts 26:14
But rise up and stand upon thy feet: for to this end have I appeared to thee, that I may make thee a minister and a witness of those things which thou hast seen and of those things wherein I will appear to thee, Acts 26:16
To open their eyes, that they may be converted from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a lot among the saints, by the faith that is in me. Acts 26:18
As he spoke these things and made his answer, Festus said with a loud voice: Paul, thou art beside thyself: much learning doth make thee mad. Acts 26:24
For the king knoweth of these things, to whom also I speak with confidence. For I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him. For neither was any of these things done in a corner. Acts 26:26
And Agrippa said to Paul: In a little thou persuadest me to become a Christian. Acts 26:28
And Paul said: I would to God that both in a little and in much, not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, should become such as I also am, except these bands. Acts 26:29
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ac 27:0">¤a> And when it was determined that he should sail into Italy and that Paul, with the other prisoners, should be delivered to a centurion, named Julius, of the band Augusta, Acts 27:1
Going on board a ship of Adrumetum, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia, Aristarchus, the Macedonian of Thessalonica, continuing with us. Acts 27:2
And there, the centurion, finding a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy, removed us into it. Acts 27:6
And with much ado sailing by it, we came into a certain place, which is called Good-havens, nigh to which was the city of Thalassa. Acts 27:8
And whereas it was not a commodious haven to winter in, the greatest part gave counsel to sail thence, if by any means they might reach Phenice, to winter there, which is a haven of Crete, looking towards the southwest and northwest. Acts 27:12
But not long after, there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroaquilo. Acts 27:14
And running under a certain island that is called Cauda, we had much work to come by the boat. Acts 27:16
And after they had fasted a long time, Paul standing forth in the midst of them, said: You should indeed, O ye men, have hearkened unto me and not have loosed from Crete and have gained this harm and loss. Acts 27:21
And we must come unto a certain island. Acts 27:26
Who also sounding, found twenty fathoms: and going on a little further, they found fifteen fathoms. Acts 27:28
And when it was day, they knew not the land. But they discovered a certain creek that had a shore, into which they minded, if they could, to thrust in the ship. Acts 27:39
And when we were fallen into a place where two seas met, they run the ship aground. And the forepart indeed, sticking fast, remained unmoveable: but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the sea. Acts 27:41
But the barbarians shewed us no small courtesy. For kindling a fire, they refreshed us all, because of the present rain and of the cold. Acts 28:2
And when Paul had gathered together a bundle of sticks and had laid them on the fire, a viper, coming out of the heat, fastened on his hand. Acts 28:3
And when the barbarians saw the beast hanging on his hand, they said one to another: Undoubtedly this man is a murderer, who, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance doth not suffer him to live. Acts 28:4
But they supposed that he would begin to swell up and that he would suddenly fall down and die. But expecting long and seeing that there came no harm to him, changing their minds, they said that he was a god. Acts 28:6
And it happened that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux. To whom Paul entered in. And when he had prayed and laid his hands on him, he healed him. Acts 28:8
And after three months, we sailed in a ship of Alexandria, that had wintered in the island, whose sign was the Castors. Acts 28:11
And when we were come to Rome, Paul was suffered to dwell by himself, with a soldier that kept him. Acts 28:16
And when they had appointed him a day, there came very many to him unto his lodgings. To whom he expounded, testifying the kingdom of God and persuading them concerning Jesus, out of the law of Moses and the prophets, from morning until evening. Acts 28:23
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ro 0:0">‡a> <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ro 1:0">¤a> Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God. Rom. 1:1
For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make a commemoration of you: Rom. 1:9
Always in my prayers making request, if by any means now at length I may have a prosperous journey, by the will of God, to come unto you. Rom. 1:10
To the Greeks and to the barbarians, to the wise and to the unwise, I am a debtor. Rom. 1:14
And they changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of the image of a corruptible man and of birds, and of fourfooted beasts and of creeping things. Rom. 1:23
Who changed the truth of God into a lie and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. Rom. 1:25
And as they liked not to have God in their knowledge, God delivered them up to a reprobate sense, to do those things which are not convenient. Rom. 1:28
For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature those things that are of the law; these, having not the law, are a law to themselves. Rom. 2:14
But if thou art called a Jew and restest in the law and makest thy boast of God, Rom. 2:17
Art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them that are in darkness, Rom. 2:19
An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, having the form of knowledge and of truth in the law. Rom. 2:20
Circumcision profiteth indeed, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a transgressor of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. Rom. 2:25
And shall not that which by nature is uncircumcision, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision art a transgressor of the law? Rom. 2:27
For it is not he is a Jew, who is so outwardly: nor is that circumcision which is outwardly in the flesh. Rom. 2:28
But he is a Jew that is one inwardly and the circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter: whose praise is not of men, but of God. Rom. 2:29
But God is true and every man a liar, as it is written: That thou mayest be justified in thy words and mayest overcome when thou art judged. Rom. 3:4
For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie, unto his glory, why am I also yet judged as a sinner? Rom. 3:7
Whom God hath proposed to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to the shewing of his justice, for the remission of former sins, through the forbearance of God, Rom. 3:25
For we account a man to be justified <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ro 3:28">by faitha>, without the works of the law. Rom. 3:28
As David also termeth the blessedness of a man to whom God reputeth justice without works: Rom. 4:6
And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the justice of the faith which he had, being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, being uncircumcised: that unto them also it may be reputed to justice: Rom. 4:11
(As it is written: I have made thee a father of many nations), before God, whom he believed: who quickeneth the dead and calleth those things that are not, as those that are. Rom. 4:17
For scarce for a just man will one die: yet perhaps for a good man some one would dare to die. Rom. 5:7
But death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even over them also who have not sinned, after the similitude of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come. Rom. 5:14
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ro 7:0">¤a> Know you not, brethren (for I speak to them that know the law) that the law hath dominion over a man <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ro 7:1">as long as it livetha>? Rom. 7:1
I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me. Rom. 7:21
For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen is not hope. For what a man seeth, why doth he hope for? Rom. 8:24
For this is the word of promise: According to this time will I come. And Sara shall have a son. Rom. 9:9
And Isaias crieth out concerning Israel: If the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ro 9:27">a remnanta> shall be saved. Rom. 9:27
For he shall finish his word and cut it short in justice: because a short word shall the Lord make upon the earth. Rom. 9:28
And as Isaias foretold: Unless the Lord of Sabbath had left us a seed, we had been made as Sodom and we had been like unto Gomorrha. Rom. 9:29
As it is written: Behold I lay in Sion a stumbling-stone and a rock of scandal. And whosoever believeth in him shall not be confounded. Rom. 9:33
For I bear them witness that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. Rom. 10:2
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? Or how shall they believe him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? Rom. 10:14
But I say: Hath not Israel known? First, Moses saith: I will provoke you to jealousy by that which is not a nation: by a foolish nation I will anger you. Rom. 10:19
But to Israel he saith: All the day long have I spread my hands to a people that believeth not and contradicteth me. Rom. 10:21
Even so then, at this present time also, there is a remnant saved according to the election of grace. Rom. 11:5
And David saith: Let their table be made a snare and a trap and a stumbling block and a recompense unto them. Rom. 11:9
And if some of the branches be broken and thou, being a wild olive, art ingrafted in them and art made partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree: Rom. 11:17
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ro 12:0">¤a> I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercy of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing unto God, your reasonable service. Rom. 12:1
For princes are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good: and thou shalt have praise from the same. Rom. 13:3
Let us not therefore judge one another any more. But judge this rather, that you put not a stumblingblock or a scandal in your brother's way. Rom. 14:13
And again, Isaias saith: There shall be a root of Jesse; and he that shall rise up to rule the Gentiles, in him the Gentiles shall hope. Rom. 15:12
But now, having no more place in these countries and having a great desire these many years past to come unto you, Rom. 15:23
For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a contribution for the poor of the saints that are in Jerusalem. Rom. 15:26
Caius, my host, and the whole church saluteth you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, saluteth you: and Quartus, a brother. Rom. 16:23
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 0:0">‡a> <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 1:0">¤a> Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Sosthenes a brother, 1 Cor. 1:1
But we preach Christ crucified: unto the Jews indeed a stumblingblock, and unto the Gentiles foolishness: 1 Cor. 1:23
But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, a wisdom which is hidden, which God ordained before the world, unto our glory: 1 Cor. 2:7
For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of a man that is in him? So the things also that are of God, no man knoweth, but the Spirit of God. 1 Cor. 2:11
According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation: and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 1 Cor. 3:10
If any man's work abide, which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. 1 Cor. 3:14
Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seem to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 1 Cor. 3:18
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 4:0">¤a> Let a man so account of us as of the ministers of Christ and the dispensers of the mysteries of God. 1 Cor. 4:1
Here now it is required among the dispensers that a man be found faithful. 1 Cor. 4:2
But to me it is a very small thing to be judged by you or by man's day. But neither do I judge my own self. 1 Cor. 4:3
But these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollo, for your sakes: that in us you may learn that one be not puffed up against the other for another, above that which is written. 1 Cor. 4:6
For I think that God hath set forth us apostles, the last, as it were men appointed to death. We are made a spectacle to the world and to angels and to men. 1 Cor. 4:9
What will you? Shall I come to you with a rod? Or in charity and in the spirit of meekness? 1 Cor. 4:21
To deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Cor. 5:5
Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole lump? 1 Cor. 5:6
Purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new paste, as you are unleavened. For Christ our pasch is sacrificed. 1 Cor. 5:7
But now I have written to you, not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother be a fornicator or covetous or a server of idols or a railer or a drunkard or an extortioner: with such a one, not so much as to eat. 1 Cor. 5:11
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 6:0">¤a> Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to be judged before the unjust: and not before the saints? 1 Cor. 6:1
Already indeed there is plainly <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 6:7">a faulta> among you, that you have law suits one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded? 1 Cor. 6:7
Or know you not that he who is joined to a harlot is made one body? For they shall be, saith he, two in one flesh. 1 Cor. 6:16
Fly fornication. Every sin that a man doth is without the body: but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. 1 Cor. 6:18
For you are bought with a great price. Glorify and bear God in your body. 1 Cor. 6:20
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 7:0">¤a> Now concerning the things whereof you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 1 Cor. 7:1
Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer: and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency. 1 Cor. 7:5
For to the rest <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 7:12">I speak, not the Lorda>. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not and she consent to dwell with him: let him not put her away. 1 Cor. 7:12
And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not and he consent to dwell with her: let her not put away her husband. 1 Cor. 7:13
But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace. 1 Cor. 7:15
Wast thou called, being a bondman? Care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather. 1 Cor. 7:21
For he that is called in the Lord, being a bondman, is the freeman of the Lord. Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ. 1 Cor. 7:22
You are bought with a price: be not made the bondslaves of men. 1 Cor. 7:23
I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity: that it is good for a man so to be. 1 Cor. 7:26
Art thou bound to a wife? Seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? Seek not a wife. 1 Cor. 7:27
But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you. 1 Cor. 7:28
But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord: how he may please God. 1 Cor. 7:32
But he that is with a wife is solicitous for the things of the world: how he may please his wife. And he is divided. 1 Cor. 7:33
And this I speak for your profit, not to cast a snare upon you, but for that which is decent and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment. 1 Cor. 7:35
A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth: but if her husband die, she is at liberty. Let her marry to whom she will: only in the Lord. 1 Cor. 7:39
But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol, eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol: and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. 1 Cor. 8:7
But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak. 1 Cor. 8:9
For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols? 1 Cor. 8:10
Have we not power to carry about <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 9:5">a woman, a sistera> as well as the rest of the apostles and the brethren of the Lord and Cephas? 1 Cor. 9:5
Who serveth as a soldier, at any time, at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard and eateth not of the fruit thereof? Who feedeth the flock and eateth not of the milk of the flock? 1 Cor. 9:7
If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we reap your carnal things? 1 Cor. 9:11
For if I preach the gospel, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 9:16">it is no glorya> to me: for a necessity lieth upon me. For woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel. 1 Cor. 9:16
For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me. 1 Cor. 9:17
And I became to the Jews a Jew, that I might gain the Jews: To them that are under the law, as if I were under the law, (whereas myself was not under the law,) that I might gain them that were under the law. 1 Cor. 9:20
And every one that striveth for the mastery refraineth himself from all things. And they indeed that they may receive a corruptible crown: but we an incorruptible one. 1 Cor. 9:25
But <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 9:27">I chastisea> my body and bring it into subjection: lest perhaps, when I have preached to others, I myself should become a castaway. 1 Cor. 9:27
Now these things were done in a figure of us, that we should not covet evil things, as they also coveted. 1 Cor. 10:6
For if a woman be not covered, let her be shorn. But if it be a shame to a woman to be shorn or made bald, let her cover her head. 1 Cor. 11:6
Therefore ought the woman to have <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 11:10">a powera> over her head, because of the angels. 1 Cor. 11:10
You yourselves judge. Doth it become a woman to pray unto God uncovered? 1 Cor. 11:13
Doth not even nature itself teach you that a man indeed, if he nourish his hair, it is a shame unto him? 1 Cor. 11:14
But if a woman nourish her hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering. 1 Cor. 11:15
But let a man prove himself: and so let him eat of that bread and <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 11:28">drink of the chalicea>. 1 Cor. 11:28
But be zealous for the better gifts. And I shew unto you yet a more excellent way. 1 Cor. 12:31
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 13:0">¤a> If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 1 Cor. 13:1
When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But, when I became a man, I put away the things of a child. 1 Cor. 13:11
We see now through a glass in a dark manner: but then face to face. Now I know in part: but then I shall know even as I am known. 1 Cor. 13:12
For he that speaketh in a tongue speaketh <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1co 14:2">not unto mena>, but unto God: for no man heareth. Yet by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries. 1 Cor. 14:2
He that speaketh in a tongue edifieth himself: but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church. 1 Cor. 14:4
Even things without life that give sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction of sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped? 1 Cor. 14:7
If then I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him to whom I speak a barbarian: and he that speaketh a barbarian to me. 1 Cor. 14:11
And therefore he that speaketh by a tongue, let him pray that he may interpret. 1 Cor. 14:13
For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth: but my understanding is without fruit. 1 Cor. 14:14
But in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also: than ten thousand words in a tongue. 1 Cor. 14:19
Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to believers but to unbelievers: but prophecies, not to unbelievers but to believers. 1 Cor. 14:22
How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification. 1 Cor. 14:26
If any speak with a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and in course: and let one interpret. 1 Cor. 14:27
But if they would learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for a woman to speak in the church. 1 Cor. 14:35
If any seem to be a prophet or spiritual, let him know the things that I write to you, that they are the commandments of the Lord. 1 Cor. 14:37
For by a man came death: and by a man the resurrection of the dead. 1 Cor. 15:21
But God giveth it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body. 1 Cor. 15:38
It is sown a natural body: it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, 1 Cor. 15:44
As it is written: The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit. 1 Cor. 15:45
Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed. 1 Cor. 15:51
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall rise again incorruptible. And we shall be changed. 1 Cor. 15:52
For a great door and evident is opened unto me: and many adversaries. 1 Cor. 16:9
All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss. 1 Cor. 16:20
And in this confidence I had a mind to come to you before, that you might have a second grace: 2 Cor. 1:15
To him who is such a one, this rebuke is sufficient, which is given by many. 2 Cor. 2:6
So that on the contrary, you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. 2 Cor. 2:7
And when I was come to Troas for the gospel of Christ and a door was opened unto me in the Lord, 2 Cor. 2:12
And not as Moses put a veil upon his face, that the children of Israel might not steadfastly look on the face of that which is made void. 2 Cor. 3:13
Now the Lord is a Spirit. And where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 2 Cor. 3:17
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2co 5:0">¤a> For we know, if our earthly house of this habitation be dissolved, that we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in heaven. 2 Cor. 5:1
But we are confident and have a good will to be absent rather from the body and to be present with the Lord. 2 Cor. 5:8
If then any be in Christ a new creature, the old things are passed away. Behold all things are made new. 2 Cor. 5:17
And will be a Father to you: and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. 2 Cor. 6:18
For although I made you sorrowful by my epistle, I do not repent. And if I did repent, seeing that the same epistle (although but for a time) did make you sorrowful, 2 Cor. 7:8
And if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I have not been put to shame: but as we have spoken all things to you in truth, so also our boasting that was made to Titus is found a truth. 2 Cor. 7:14
And herein I give my advice: for this is profitable for you who have begun not only to do but also to be willing, a year ago. 2 Cor. 8:10
For if the will be forward, it is accepted according to that which a man hath: not according to that which he hath not. 2 Cor. 8:12
Therefore I thought it necessary to desire the brethren that they would go to you before and prepare this blessing before promised, to be ready, so as a blessing, not as covetousness. 2 Cor. 9:5
Every one as he hath determined in his heart, not with sadness or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 2 Cor. 9:7
Let such a one think this, that such as we are in word by epistles when absent, such also we will be indeed when present. 2 Cor. 10:11
But we will not glory beyond our measure: but according to the measure of the rule which God hath measured to us, a measure to reach even unto you. 2 Cor. 10:13
For I am jealous of you with the jealousy of God. For I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 2 Cor. 11:2
Or did I commit a fault, humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached unto you the Gospel of God freely? 2 Cor. 11:7
I say again (Let no man think me to be foolish: otherwise take me as one foolish, that I also may glory a little): 2 Cor. 11:16
For you suffer if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take from you, if a man be lifted up, if a man strike you on the face. 2 Cor. 11:20
Thrice was I beaten with rods: once I was stoned: thrice I suffered shipwreck: a night and a day I was in the depth of the sea. 2 Cor. 11:25
And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall: and so escaped his hands. 2 Cor. 11:33
I know a man in Christ: above fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I know not, or out of the body, I know not: God knoweth), such a one caught up to the third heaven. 2 Cor. 12:2
And I know such a man (whether in the body, or out of the body, I know not: God knoweth): 2 Cor. 12:3
For though I should have a mind to glory, I shall not be foolish: for I will say the truth. But I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth in me, or any thing he heareth from me. 2 Cor. 12:6
And lest the greatness of the revelations should exalt me, there was given me a sting of my flesh, an angel of Satan, to buffet me. 2 Cor. 12:7
I desired Titus: and I sent with him a brother. Did Titus overreach you? Did we not walk with the same spirit? Did we not in the same steps? 2 Cor. 12:18
Do you seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me, who towards you is not weak, but is mighty in you? 2 Cor. 13:3
Salute one another with a holy kiss. 2 Cor. 13:12
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema. Gal. 1:8
As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema. Gal. 1:9
But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Gentile, was compelled to be circumcised. Gal. 2:3
But when I saw that they walked not uprightly unto the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all: If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of the Gentiles and not as the Jews do, how dost thou compel the Gentiles to live as do the Jews? Gal. 2:14
For if I build up again the things which I have destroyed, I make myself a prevaricator. Gal. 2:18
For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: Cursed is every one that abideth, not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. Gal. 3:10
Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us (for it is written: Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree). Gal. 3:13
Brethren (I speak after the manner of man), yet a man's testament, if it be confirmed, no man despiseth nor addeth to it. Gal. 3:15
Why then was the law? It was set <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ga 3:19">because of transgressionsa>, until the seed should come to whom he made the promise, being ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Gal. 3:19
Now a mediator is not of one: but God is one. Gal. 3:20
Was the law then against the promises of God: God forbid! For if there had been a law given which could give life, verily justice should have been by the law. Gal. 3:21
But after the faith is come, we are no longer under a pedagogue. Gal. 3:25
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ga 4:0">¤a> Now I say, as long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all, Gal. 4:1
But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent his Son, made of a woman, made under the law: Gal. 4:4
Therefore, now he is not a servant, but a son. And if a son, an heir also through God. Gal. 4:7
But be zealous for that which is good in a good thing always: and not only when I am present with you. Gal. 4:18
For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman and the other by a free woman. Gal. 4:22
For Sina is a mountain in Arabia, which hath affinity to that Jerusalem which now is: and is in bondage with her children. Gal. 4:25
For it is written: Rejoice, thou barren, that bearest not: break forth and cry thou that travailest not: for many are the children of the desolate, more than of her that hath a husband. Gal. 4:27
And I testify again to every man circumcising himself that he is a debtor to do the whole law. Gal. 5:3
A little leaven corrupteth the whole lump. Gal. 5:9
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=ga 6:0">¤a> Brethren, and if a man be overtaken in any fault, you, who are spiritual, instruct such a one in the spirit of meekness, considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Gal. 6:1
Be not deceived: God is not mocked. For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap. Gal. 6:7
See what a letter I have written to you with my own hand. Gal. 6:11
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision: but a new creature. Gal. 6:15
How that, according to revelation, the mystery has been made known to me, as I have written above in a few words: Eph. 3:3
Of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which is given to me according to the operation of his power. Eph. 3:7
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=eph 4:0">¤a> I therefore, a prisoner in the Lord, beseech you that you walk worthy of the vocation in which you are called: Eph. 4:1
Until we all meet into the unity of faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the age of the fulness of Christ: Eph. 4:13
And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness. Eph. 5:2
For know you this and understand: That no fornicator or unclean or covetous person (which is a serving of idols) hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Eph. 5:5
For the things that are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of. Eph. 5:12
That he might present it to himself, a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. Eph. 5:27
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother: and shall cleave to his wife. And they shall be two in one flesh. Eph. 5:31
This is a great sacrament: but I speak in Christ and in the church. Eph. 5:32
Honour thy father and thy mother, which is the first commandment with a promise: Eph. 6:2
With a good will serving, as to the Lord, and not to men. Eph. 6:7
For which I am an ambassador in a chain: so that therein I may be bold to speak according as I ought. Eph. 6:20
Being confident of this very thing: that he who hath begun a good work in you will perfect it unto the day of Christ Jesus. Phil. 1:6
But I am straitened between two: having a desire to be dissolved and to be with Christ, a thing by far the better. Phil. 1:23
And in nothing be ye terrified by the adversaries: which to them is a cause of perdition, but to you of salvation, and this from God. Phil. 1:28
But <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=php 2:7">emptied himselfa>, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, Phil. 2:7
And in habit found as a man. He humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death, even to the death of the cross. Phil. 2:8
For which cause, God also hath exalted him and hath given him a name which is above all names: Phil. 2:9
That you may be blameless and sincere children of God, without reproof, in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation: among whom you shine as lights in the world. Phil. 2:15
Yea, and if I be made a victim upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and congratulate with you all. Phil. 2:17
Now know ye the proof of him: that as a son with the father, so hath he served with me in the gospel. Phil. 2:22
Being circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews. According to the law, a Pharisee: Phil. 3:5

Whereof I am made a minister according to the dispensation of God, which is given me towards you, that I may fulfil the word of God: Col. 1:25
Let no man therefore judge you <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=col 2:16">in meata> or in drink or in respect of a festival day or of the new moon or of the sabbaths, Col. 2:16
Which are a shadow of things to come: but the body is of Christ. Col. 2:17
Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in superstition and humility, and not sparing the body; not in any honour to the filling of the flesh. Col. 2:23
Bearing with one another and forgiving one another, if any have a complaint against another. Even as the Lord hath forgiven you, so do you also. Col. 3:13

With Onesimus, a most beloved and faithful brother, who is one of you. All things that are done here, they shall make known to you. Col. 4:9
And Jesus that is called Justus: who are of the circumcision. These only are my helpers, in the kingdom of God: who have been a comfort to me. Col. 4:11
Epaphras saluteth you, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, who is always solicitous for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and full in all the will of God. Col. 4:12
We give thanks to God always for you all: making a remembrance of you in our prayers without ceasing, 1 Th. 1:2
So that you were made a pattern to all that believe in Macedonia and in Achaia. 1 Th. 1:7

Salute all the brethren with a holy kiss. 1 Th. 5:26
Seeing it is a just thing with God to repay tribulation to them that trouble you: 2 Th. 1:6

Being made so much better than the angels as he hath inherited a more excellent name than they. Heb. 1:4
For to which of the angels hath he said at any time: Thou art my Son, to-day have I begotten thee? And again: I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? Heb. 1:5
And to the angels indeed he saith: He that maketh his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire. Heb. 1:7
But to the Son: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of justice is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Heb. 1:8
They shall perish: but thou shalt continue: and they shall all grow old as a garment. Heb. 1:11
And as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shalt be changed. But thou art the selfsame: and thy years shall not fail. Heb. 1:12
For if the word spoken by angels became steadfast and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward: Heb. 2:2
But one in a certain place hath testified, saying: What is man, that thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man, that thou visitest him? Heb. 2:6
Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels: thou hast crowned him with glory and honour and hast set him over the works of thy hands. Heb. 2:7
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour: that, through the grace of God he might taste death for all. Heb. 2:9
Wherefore, it behoved him in all things to be made like unto his brethren, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest before God, that he might be a propitiation for the sins of the people. Heb. 2:17
And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said: Heb. 3:5
For in a certain place he spoke of the seventh day thus: And God rested the seventh day from all his works. Heb. 4:4
Again he limiteth a certain day, saying in David; To day, after so long a time as it is above said: To day if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts. Heb. 4:7
There remaineth therefore a day of rest for the people of God. Heb. 4:9
For the word of God is living and effectual and more piercing than any two edged sword; and reaching unto the division of the soul and the spirit, of the joints also and the marrow: and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Heb. 4:12
Having therefore a great high priest that hath passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God: let us hold fast our confession. Heb. 4:14
For we have not a high priest who cannot have compassion on our infirmities: but one tempted in all things like as we are, without sin. Heb. 4:15
So Christ also did not glorify himself, that he might be made a high priest: but he that said unto him: Thou art my Son: this day have I begotten thee. Heb. 5:5
As he saith also in another place: Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedech. Heb. 5:6
Who in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offering up prayers and supplications to him that was able to save him from death, was heard for his reverence. Heb. 5:7

But that which bringeth forth thorns and briers is reprobate and very near unto a curse: whose end is to be burnt. Heb. 6:8
Where the forerunner Jesus is entered for us, made a high priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech. Heb. 6:20
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 7:3">Without fathera>, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but likened unto the Son of God, continueth a priest for ever. Heb. 7:3
And indeed they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is to say, of their brethren: though they themselves also came out of the loins of Abraham. Heb. 7:5
For the priesthood being translated, it is necessary that a translation also be made of the law, Heb. 7:12
Who is made, not according to the law of a carnal commandment, but according to the power of an indissoluble life. Heb. 7:16
For he testifieth: Thou art a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech. Heb. 7:17
There is indeed a setting aside of the former commandment, because of the weakness and unprofitableness thereof: Heb. 7:18
For the law brought nothing to perfection: but a bringing in of a better hope, by which we draw nigh to God. Heb. 7:19
(For the others indeed were made priests without an oath: But this with an oath, by him that said unto him: The Lord hath sworn and he will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever). Heb. 7:21
By so much is Jesus made a surety of a better testament. Heb. 7:22
For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens: Heb. 7:26
A minister of <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 8:2">the holiesa> and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord hath pitched, and not man. Heb. 8:2
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 8:4">If then he were on eartha>, he would not be a priest: seeing that there would be others to offer gifts according to the law. Heb. 8:4
But now he hath obtained a better ministry, by how much also he is a mediator of a better testament which is established on better promises. Heb. 8:6
For if that former had been faultless, there should not indeed a place have been sought for a second. Heb. 8:7
For, finding fault with them, he saith: Behold the days shall come, saith the Lord: and I will perfect, unto the house of Israel and unto the house of Juda, a new testament: Heb. 8:8
Now in saying <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 8:13">a newa>, he hath made the former old. And that which decayeth and groweth old is near its end. Heb. 8:13
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 9:0">¤a> The former indeed had also justifications of divine service and a worldly sanctuary. Heb. 9:1
For there was a tabernacle made the first, wherein were the candlesticks and the table and the setting forth of loaves, which is called the Holy. Heb. 9:2
Having a golden censer and the ark of the testament covered about on every part with gold, in which was a golden pot that had manna and the rod of Aaron that had blossomed and the tables of the testament. Heb. 9:4
But into the second, the high priest alone, once a year: not without blood, which he offereth for his own and the people's ignorance: Heb. 9:7
Which is a parable of the time present: according to which gifts and sacrifices are offered, which cannot, as to the conscience, make him perfect that serveth, only in meats and in drinks, Heb. 9:9
But Christ, being come an high Priest of the good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hand, that is, not of this creation: Heb. 9:11
For where there is a testament the death of the testator must of necessity come in. Heb. 9:16
For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is as yet of no strength, whilst the testator liveth. Heb. 9:17
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 10:0">¤a> For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, not the very image of the things, by the selfsame sacrifices which they offer continually every year, can never make the comers thereunto perfect. Heb. 10:1
But in them there is made a commemoration of sins every year: Heb. 10:3
Wherefore, when he cometh into the world he saith: Sacrifice and oblation thou wouldest not: but a body thou hast fitted to me. Heb. 10:5
Now, where there is a remission of these, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 10:18">there is no more an oblation for sina>. Heb. 10:18
Having therefore, brethren, a confidence in the entering into the holies by the blood of Christ: Heb. 10:19
A new and living way which he hath dedicated for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh: Heb. 10:20
And a high priest over the house of God: Heb. 10:21
Let us draw near with a true heart, in fulness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with clean water. Heb. 10:22
But a certain dreadful expectation of judgment, and the rage of a fire which shall consume the adversaries. Heb. 10:27
A man making void the law of Moses dieth without any mercy under two or three witnesses: Heb. 10:28
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Heb. 10:31
But call to mind the former days, wherein, being illuminated, you endured a great fight of afflictions. Heb. 10:32
And on the one hand indeed, by reproaches and tribulations, were made a gazingstock; and on the other, became companions of them that were used in such sort. Heb. 10:33
For you both had compassion on them that were in bands and took with joy the being stripped of your own goods, knowing that you have a better and a lasting substance. Heb. 10:34
Do not therefore lose your confidence which hath a great reward. Heb. 10:35
For yet a little and a very little while, and he that is to come will come and will not delay. Heb. 10:37
For by this the ancients obtained a testimony. Heb. 11:2
By faith Abel offered to God a sacrifice exceeding that of Cain, by which he obtained a testimony that he was just, God giving testimony to his gifts. And by it he being dead yet speaketh. Heb. 11:4
But without faith it is impossible to please God. For he that cometh to God must believe that he is: and is a rewarder to them that seek him. Heb. 11:6
By faith <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 11:8">he that is called Abrahama> obeyed to go out into a place which he was to receive for an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing whither he went. Heb. 11:8
By faith he abode in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in cottages, with Isaac and Jacob, the co-heirs of the same promise. Heb. 11:9
For he looked for a city that hath foundations: whose builder and maker is God. Heb. 11:10
For they that say these things do signify that they seek a country. Heb. 11:14
But now they desire a better, that is to say, a heavenly country. Therefore, God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city. Heb. 11:16
Accounting that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Whereupon also he received him <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 11:19">for a parablea>. Heb. 11:19
By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents: because they saw he was a comely babe, and they feared not the king's edict. Heb. 11:23
Rather choosing to be afflicted with the people of God than to have the pleasure of sin for a time: Heb. 11:25
Women received their dead raised to life again. But others were racked, not accepting deliverance, that they might find a better resurrection. Heb. 11:35
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=heb 12:0">¤a> And therefore we also having so great a cloud of witnesses over our head, laying aside every weight and sin which surrounds us, let us run by patience to the fight proposed to us: Heb. 12:1
And they indeed for a few days, according to their own pleasure, instructed us: but he, for our profit, that we might receive his sanctification. Heb. 12:10
For you are not come to a mountain that might be touched and a burning fire and a whirlwind and darkness and storm, Heb. 12:18
And the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, which they that heard excused themselves, that the word might not be spoken to them. Heb. 12:19
For they did not endure that which was said: and if so much as a beast shall touch the mount, it shall be stoned. Heb. 12:20
For our God is a consuming fire. Heb. 12:29
For, we have not here a lasting city: but we seek one that is to come. Heb. 13:14
Pray for us. For we trust we have a good conscience, being willing to behave ourselves well in all things. Heb. 13:18
And I beseech you, brethren, that you suffer this word of consolation. For I have written to you in a few words. Heb. 13:22
And patience hath a perfect work: that you may be perfect and entire, failing in nothing. Jas. 1:4
But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea, which is moved and carried about by the wind. Jas. 1:6
A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways. Jas. 1:8
For the sun rose with a burning heat and parched the grass: and the flower thereof fell off, and the beauty of the shape thereof perished. So also shall the rich man fade away in his ways. Jas. 1:11
Let no man, when he is tempted, say that he is tempted by God. For God is not a tempter of evils: and he tempteth no man. Jas. 1:13
For if a man be a hearer of the word and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass. Jas. 1:23
But he that hath looked into the perfect law of liberty and hath continued therein, not becoming a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work: this man shall be blessed in his deed. Jas. 1:25
For if there shall come into your assembly a man having a golden ring, in fine apparel; and there shall come in also a poor man in mean attire: Jas. 2:2
For he that said: Thou shalt not commit adultery, said also: Thou shalt not kill. Now if thou do not commit adultery, but shalt kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. Jas. 2:11
What shall it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but hath not works? Shall faith be able to save him? Jas. 2:14
And if a brother or sister be naked and want daily food: Jas. 2:15
Do you see that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only? Jas. 2:24
For in many things we all offend. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man. He is able also with a bridle to lead about the whole body. Jas. 3:2
Behold also ships, whereas they are great and are driven by strong winds, yet are they turned about with a small helm, whithersoever the force of the governor willeth. Jas. 3:4
Even so the tongue is indeed a little member and boasteth great things. Behold how small a fire kindleth a great wood. Jas. 3:5
And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is placed among our members, which defileth the whole body and inflameth the wheel of our nativity, being set on fire by hell. Jas. 3:6
Doth a fountain send forth, out of the same hole, sweet and bitter water? Jas. 3:11
Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge, among you? Let him shew, by a good conversation, his work in the meekness of wisdom. Jas. 3:13
Adulterers, know you not that the friendship of this world is the enemy of God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of this world becometh an enemy of God. Jas. 4:4
Detract not one another, my brethren. He that detracteth his brother, or he that judgeth his brother, detracteth the law and judgeth the law. But if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge. Jas. 4:11
But who art thou that judgest thy neighbour? Behold, now you that say: To-day or to-morrow we will go into such a city, and there we will spend a year and will traffic and make our gain. Jas. 4:13
Whereas you know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is a vapour which appeareth for a little while and afterwards shall vanish away. Jas. 4:14
Your gold and silver is cankered: and the rust of them shall be for a testimony against you and shall eat your flesh like fire. You have stored up to yourselves wrath against the last days. Jas. 5:3
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=jas 5:16">Confess therefore your sins one to anothera>: and pray one for another, that you may be saved. For the continual prayer of a just man availeth much. Jas. 5:16
Elias was a man passible like unto us: and with prayer he prayed that it might not rain upon the earth. And it rained not for three years and six months. Jas. 5:17
He must know that he who causeth a sinner to be converted from the error of his way shall save his soul from death and shall cover a multitude of sins. Jas. 5:20
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy hath regenerated us unto a lively hope, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead: 1 Pet. 1:3
Wherein you shalt greatly rejoice, if now you must be for a little time made sorrowful in divers temptations: 1 Pet. 1:6
But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb unspotted and undefiled 1 Pet. 1:19
Purifying your souls in the obedience of charity, with a brotherly love, from a sincere heart love one another earnestly: 1 Pet. 1:22
Unto whom coming, as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men but chosen and made honourable by God: 1 Pet. 2:4
Be you also as living stones built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. 1 Pet. 2:5
Wherefore it is said in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious. And he that shall believe in him shall not be confounded. 1 Pet. 2:6
And a stone of stumbling and a rock of scandal, to them who stumble at the word, neither do believe, whereunto also they are set. 1 Pet. 2:8
But you are a chosen generation, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people: that you may declare his virtues, who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: 1 Pet. 2:9
Who in time past were not a people: but are now the people of God. Who had not obtained mercy: but now have obtained mercy. 1 Pet. 2:10
As free and not as making liberty a cloak for malice, but as the servants of God. 1 Pet. 2:16
For this is thankworthy: if, for conscience towards God, a man endure sorrows, suffering wrongfully. 1 Pet. 2:19
But the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptibility of a quiet and a meek spirit which is rich in the sight of God. 1 Pet. 3:4
Not rendering evil for evil, nor railing for railing, but contrariwise, blessing: for unto this are you called, that you may inherit a blessing. 1 Pet. 3:9
But sanctify the Lord Christ in your hearts, being ready always to satisfy every one that asketh you a reason of that hope which is in you. 1 Pet. 3:15
But with modesty and fear, having a good conscience: that whereas they speak evil of you, they may be ashamed who falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ. 1 Pet. 3:16
Which had been some time incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was a building: wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water. 1 Pet. 3:20
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1pe 3:21">Whereunto baptisma>, being of the like form, now saveth you also: not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but, the examination of a good conscience towards God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ. 1 Pet. 3:21
But before all things have a constant mutual charity among yourselves: for charity covereth a multitude of sins. 1 Pet. 4:8
But let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or a railer or a coveter of other men's things. 1 Pet. 4:15
But, if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed: but let him glorify God in that name. 1 Pet. 4:16
<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1pe 5:0">¤a> The ancients therefore that are among you, I beseech who am myself also an ancient and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, as also a partaker of that glory which is to be revealed in time to come: 1 Pet. 5:1
Neither as lording it over the clergy but being made a pattern of the flock from the heart. 1 Pet. 5:3
And when the prince of pastors shall appear, you shall receive a never fading crown of glory. 1 Pet. 5:4
Be sober and watch: because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, goeth about seeking whom he may devour. 1 Pet. 5:8
But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, will himself perfect you and confirm you and establish you. 1 Pet. 5:10
By Sylvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I think, I have written briefly: beseeching and testifying that this is the true grace of God, wherein you stand. 1 Pet. 5:12

And I will endeavour that you frequently have after my decease whereby you may keep a memory of these things. 2 Pet. 1:15
And we have the more firm prophetical word: whereunto you do well to attend, as to a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn and the day star arise in your hearts. 2 Pet. 1:19
And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you. Whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not: and their perdition slumbereth not. 2 Pet. 2:3
Whereas angels, who are greater in strength and power, <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=2pe 2:11">bring not against themselves a railing judgmenta>. 2 Pet. 2:11
Receiving the reward of their injustice, counting for a pleasure the delights of a day: stains and spots, sporting themselves to excess, rioting in their feasts with you: 2 Pet. 2:13
But had a check of his madness, the dumb beast used to the yoke, which, speaking with man's voice, forbade the folly of the prophet. 2 Pet. 2:16
For, speaking proud words of vanity, they allure by the desires of fleshly riotousness those who for a little while escape, such as converse in error: 2 Pet. 2:18
Promising them liberty, whereas they themselves are the slaves of corruption. For by whom a man is overcome, of the same also he is the slave. 2 Pet. 2:19
But of this one thing be not ignorant, my beloved, that one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 2 Pet. 3:8
But the day of the Lord shall come as a thief, in which the heavens shall pass away with great violence and the elements shall be melted with heat and the earth and the works which are in it shall be burnt up. 2 Pet. 3:10

If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar: and his word is not in us. 1 Jn. 1:10
He who saith that he knoweth him and keepeth not his commandments is a liar: and the truth is not in him. 1 Jn. 2:4
Dearly beloved, I write not a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard. 1 Jn. 2:7
Again <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1jo 2:8">a new commandmenta> I write unto you: which thing is true both in him and in you, because the darkness is passed and the true light now shineth. 1 Jn. 2:8
Who is a liar, but he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is Antichrist, who denieth the Father and the Son. 1 Jn. 2:22
Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer. And you know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in himself. 1 Jn. 3:15
In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins. 1 Jn. 4:10
If any man say: I love God, and hateth his brother; he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother whom he seeth, how can he love God whom he seeth not? 1 Jn. 4:20
He that believeth in the Son of God hath the testimony of God in himself. <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1jo 5:10">He that believeth not the Sona> maketh him a liar: because he believeth not in the testimony which God hath testified of his Son. 1 Jn. 5:10
He that knoweth his brother to sin <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=1jo 5:16">a sin which is not to deatha>, let him ask: and life shall be given to him who sinneth not to death. There is a sin unto death. For that I say not that any man ask. 1 Jn. 5:16
All iniquity is sin. And there is a sin unto death. 1 Jn. 5:17
I was exceeding glad that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father. 2 Jn. 1:4

Who have given testimony to thy charity in the sight of the church. Whom thou shalt do well to bring forward on their way in a manner worthy of God: 3 Jn. 1:6
Dearly beloved, taking all care to write unto you concerning your common salvation, I was under a necessity to write unto you: to beseech you to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints. Jude 1:3
And hath made us a kingdom, and priests to God and his Father. To him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen. Apoc. 1:6
I was in the spirit on the Lord's day and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, Apoc. 1:10
Saying: What thou seest, write in a book and send to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamus and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea. Apoc. 1:11
And in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, one like to the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the feet, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. Apoc. 1:13
And his head and his hairs were white as white wool and as snow. And his eyes were as a flame of fire: Apoc. 1:14
And his feet like unto fine brass, as in a burning furnace. And his voice as the sound of many waters. Apoc. 1:15
And he had in his right hand seven stars. And from his mouth came out a sharp two-edged sword. And his face was as the sun shineth in his power. Apoc. 1:16
But I have against thee a few things: because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat and to commit fornication. Apoc. 2:14
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches: To him that overcometh I will give the hidden manna and will give him a white counter: and in the counter, a new name written, which no man knoweth but he that receiveth it. Apoc. 2:17
And to the angel of the church of Thyatira write: These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like to a flame of fire and his feet like to fine brass. Apoc. 2:18
But I have against thee a few things: because thou sufferest the woman Jezabel, who calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants, to commit fornication and to eat of things sacrificed to idols. Apoc. 2:20
And I gave her a time that she might do penance: and she will not repent of her fornication. Apoc. 2:21
Behold, I will cast her into a bed: and they that commit adultery with her shall be in very great tribulation, except they do penance from their deeds, Apoc. 2:22
And he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and as the vessel of a potter they shall be broken: As I also have received of my Father. Apoc. 2:27
Have in mind therefore in what manner thou hast received and heard: and observe and do penance: If then thou shalt not watch, I will come to thee as a thief: and thou shalt not know at what hour I will come to thee. Apoc. 3:3
But thou hast a few names in Sardis which have not defiled their garments: and they shall walk with me in white, because they are worthy. Apoc. 3:4

<a href="/d/n/BDY?l=re 4:0">¤a> After these things I looked, and behold a door was opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard, as it were, of a trumpet speaking with me, said: Come up hither, and I will shew thee the things which must be done hereafter. Apoc. 4:1
And immediately I was in the spirit. And behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and upon the throne one sitting. Apoc. 4:2
And he that sat was to the sight like the jasper and the sardine stone. And there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. Apoc. 4:3
And in the sight of the throne was, as it were, a sea of glass like to crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind. Apoc. 4:6
And the first living creature was like a lion: and the second living creature like a calf: and the third living creature, having the face, as it were, of a man: and the fourth living creature was like an eagle flying. Apoc. 4:7

And I saw a strong angel, proclaiming with a loud voice: Who is worthy to open the book and to loose the seals thereof? Apoc. 5:2
And I saw: and behold in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures and in the midst of the ancients, a Lamb standing, as it were slain, having seven horns and seven eyes: which are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth. Apoc. 5:6
And they sung a new canticle, saying: Thou art worthy, O Lord, to take the book and to open the seals thereof: because thou wast slain and hast redeemed us to God, in thy blood, out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation: Apoc. 5:9
And hast made us to our God a kingdom and priests, and we shall reign on the earth. Apoc. 5:10
Saying with a loud voice: The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive power and divinity and wisdom and strength and honour and glory and benediction. Apoc. 5:12
And I saw: and behold a <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=re 6:2">white horsea>, and he that sat on him had a bow, and there was a crown given him, and he went forth conquering that he might conquer. Apoc. 6:2
And there went out another horse that was red. And to him that sat thereon, it was given that he should take peace from the earth: and that they should kill one another. And a great sword was given to him. Apoc. 6:4
And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying: Come and see. And behold a black horse. And he that sat on him had a pair of scales in his hand. Apoc. 6:5
And I heard, as it were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying: Two pounds of wheat for a penny, and thrice two pounds of barley for a penny: and see thou hurt not the wine and the oil. Apoc. 6:6
And behold a pale horse: and he that sat upon him, his name was Death. And hell followed him. And power was given to him over the four parts of the earth, to kill with sword, with famine and with death and with the beasts of the earth. Apoc. 6:8
And they cried with a loud voice, saying: How long, O Lord (Holy and True), dost thou not judge and <a href="/d/n/BDY?l=re 6:10">revenge our blooda> on them that dwell on the earth? Apoc. 6:10
And white robes were given to every one of them one; And it was said to them that they should rest for a little time till their fellow servants and their brethren, who are to be slain even as they, should be filled up. Apoc. 6:11
And I saw, when he had opened the sixth seal: and behold there was a great earthquake. And the sun became black as sackcloth of hair: and the whole moon became as blood. Apoc. 6:12
And the stars from heaven fell upon the earth, as the fig tree casteth its green figs when it is shaken by a great wind. Apoc. 6:13
And the heaven departed as a book folded up. And every mountain, and the islands, were moved out of their places. Apoc. 6:14
And I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, having the sign of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, Apoc. 7:2
After this, I saw a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and in sight of the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands. Apoc. 7:9
And they cried with a loud voice, saying: Salvation to our God, who sitteth upon the throne and to the Lamb. Apoc. 7:10
And another angel came and stood before the altar, having a golden censer: and there was given to him much incense, that he should offer of the prayers of all saints, upon the golden altar which is before the throne of God. Apoc. 8:3
And the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire of the altar and cast it on the earth: and there were thunders and voices and lightnings and a great earthquake. Apoc. 8:5
And the second angel sounded the trumpet: and, as it were, a great mountain, burning with fire, was cast into the sea. And the third part of the sea became blood. Apoc. 8:8
And the third angel sounded the trumpet: and a great star fell from heaven, burning as it were a torch. And it fell on the third part of the rivers and upon the fountains of waters: Apoc. 8:10
And the fourth angel sounded the trumpet: and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars, so that the third part of them was darkened. And the day did not shine for a third part of it: and the night in like manner. Apoc. 8:12
And I beheld: and heard the voice of one eagle flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice: Woe, Woe, Woe to the inhabitants of the earth, by reason of the rest of the voices of the three angels, who are yet to sound the trumpet! Apoc. 8:13

and thy glorie passed foure gates of fire, and of earthquake, and winde, and frost, that thou mightst geue a law to the seede of Iacob, and to the generation of Israel diligence. 4 Esd. 3:19
And thou didst not take away from them a malignant hart, that thy law might bring forth fruite in them. 4 Esd. 3:20

And I sayd: Speake my God. And he sayd to me: The sea is set in a large place, that it might be deepe and wide: 4 Esd. 7:3
but the entrance to it shal be set in a straict place, that it might be like to riuers. 4 Esd. 7:4
Also an other thing: A citie is built, and set in a plaine place, and it is ful of al goodes. 4 Esd. 7:6
The entrance therof narrow, and set in a stepe place, so that on the right hand there was fire, & on the left depe water: 4 Esd. 7:7

And if the citie shal be geuen a man for inheritance, if he neuer passe through the peril set before it, how shal he receiue his inhertance? 4 Esd. 7:9

And when I spake these thinges in my hart, I looked backe with myne eyes, and saw a woman on the right side, and behold she mourned, and wept with a lowd voice, and was sorrowful in mynde exceedingly, and her garments rent, and ashes vpon her heade. 4 Esd. 9:38
Suffer me my Lord, that I may lament myselfe, & adde sorrow: because I am of a very pensiue mynde, and am humbled exceedingly. 4 Esd. 9:41
I thy seruant haue beene barren, and haue not borne childe, hauing a husband thirty yeares. 4 Esd. 9:43
And it came to passe, after thirtie yeares God heard me thy handmayd, and saw my humilitie, and attended to my tribulation, and gaue me a sonne: and I was very ioyful vpon him, and my husband, and al my citizens, and we did glorifie the Strong exceedingly. 4 Esd. 9:45
And it came to passe when he was growen, and came to take a wife, I made a feast day. 4 Esd. 9:47

And Behold, suddenly she put forth a great sound of a voyce ful of feare, that the earth was moued at the womans sound. And I saw: 4 Esd. 10:26
and behold, the woman did no more appeare vnto me, but a citie was built, & a place was shewed of great fundations: and I was afrayd, & crying with a loude voyce I sayd: 4 Esd. 10:27
Stand like a man, & I wil moue thee. And I sayd: 4 Esd. 10:33
This therfore is the vnderstanding of the vision which appeared to thee a litle before. 4 Esd. 10:40
And now thou seest not the forme of the woman, but there appeared to thee a citie to be built. 4 Esd. 10:42
This woman which thou sawest, she is Sion, and wheras she told thee of her, whom now also thou shalt see, as a citie builded. 4 Esd. 10:44
And it came to passe after thirtie yeares, Salomon built the citie, and offered oblations: then it was, when the barren bare a childe. 4 Esd. 10:46
And wheras she sayd to thee, that my sonne comming into the bryde chamber dyed, and that a fal chanced vnto him, this was the ruine of Ierusalem that is made. 4 Esd. 10:48
For therfore did he say to thee, that thou shouldest tarie in a field where house is not built. 4 Esd. 10:51
therfore I sayd vnto thee, that thou shouldest goe into a field, where is no fundation of building. 4 Esd. 10:53

Write therfore in a booke al these thinges which thou hast sene, and put them in a hidden place: 4 Esd. 12:37
For thou alone art remayning to vs of al peoples, as a cluster of grapes of the vineyard, and as a candle in a darke place, and as an hauen and shippe saued from the tempest. 4 Esd. 12:42
For we are not better then they that dyed there. And they wept with a lowd voice. And I answered them, and sayd: 4 Esd. 12:45

But they gaue themselues this counsel, to forsake the multitude of nations, and to goe forth into a farther countrie, where mankind neuer inhabited. 4 Esd. 13:41

As a flower shal be withered, when the heate shal rise that is sent forth vpon thee, 4 Esd. 15:50
