When thou shalt depart from me this day, thou shalt find two men by the sepulchre of Rachel in the borders of Benjamin to the south, and they shall say to thee: The asses are found which thou wentest to seek: and thy father, thinking no more of the asses, is concerned for you, and saith: What shall I do for my son? 1 Ki. 10:2
And now the king goeth before you: but I am old and greyheaded: and my sons are with you: having then conversed with you from my youth until this day, behold here I am. 1 Ki. 12:2
And he said to them: The Lord is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that you have not found any thing in my hand. And they said: He is witness. 1 Ki. 12:5
And the men of Israel were joined together that day: and Saul adjured the people, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat food till evening, till I be revenged of my enemies. So none of the people tasted any food. 1 Ki. 14:24
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
As the Lord liveth, who is the Saviour of Israel, if it was done by Jonathan, my son, he shall surely die. In this none of the people gainsayed him. 1 Ki. 14:39
And he said to all Israel: Be you on one side and I, with Jonathan, my son, will be on the other side. And the people answered Saul: Do what seemeth good in thy eyes. 1 Ki. 14:40
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: (Cast lots between me, and Jonathan, my son. And Jonathan was taken. 1 Ki. 14:42
And Saul said to Jonathan: Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said: I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod, which was in my hand, and behold I must die. 1 Ki. 14:43
It repenteth me that I have made Saul king: for he hath forsaken me, and hath not executed my commandments. And Samuel was grieved, and he cried unto the Lord all night. 1 Ki. 15:11
And Samuel said: What meaneth then this bleating of the flocks, which soundeth in my ears, and the lowing of the herds, which I hear? 1 Ki. 15:14
But now bear, I beseech thee, my sin, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord. 1 Ki. 15:25
Then he said: I have sinned: yet honour me now before the ancients of my people, and before Israel, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord thy God. 1 Ki. 15:30
And Saul sent to Isai, saying: Let David stand before me: for he hath found favour in my sight. 1 Ki. 16:22
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 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 David said to Saul: Who am I, or what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son in law of the king? 1 Ki. 18:18
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 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 I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art: and I will speak of thee to my father, and whatsoever I shall see, I will tell thee. 1 Ki. 19:3
And Saul said to Michol: Why hast thou deceived me so, and let my enemy go and flee away? And Michol answered Saul: Because he said to me: Let me go, or else I will kill thee. 1 Ki. 19:17
¤ But David fled from Najoth, which is in Ramatha, and came and said to Jonathan: What have I done? what is my iniquity, and what is my sin against thy father, that he seeketh my life? 1 Ki. 20:1
And he said to him: (God forbid, thou shalt not die: for my father will do nothing, great or little, without first telling me: hath then my father hid this word only from me? no, this shall not be. 1 Ki. 20:2
And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee. 1 Ki. 20:9
Jonathan said to David: O Lord God of Israel, if I shall discover my father's mind, to morrow, or the day after, and there be any thing good for David, and I send not immediately to thee, and make it known to thee, 1 Ki. 20:12
May the Lord do so and so to Jonathan, and add still more. But if my father shall continue in malice against thee, I will discover it to thy ear, and will send thee away, that thou mayst go in peace, and the Lord be with thee, as he hath been with my father. 1 Ki. 20:13
Thou shalt not take away thy kindness from my house for ever, when the Lord shall have rooted out the enemies of David, every one of them from the earth, may he take away Jonathan from his house, and may the Lord require it at the hands of David's enemies. 1 Ki. 20:15
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
And Jonathan said to David: Go in peace: and let all stand that we have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, saying: The Lord be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever. And David arose, and departed: and Jonathan went into the city. 1 Ki. 20:42
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
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
Have we need of mad men, that you have brought in this fellow, to play the madman in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house? 1 Ki. 21:15
And David departed from thence into Maspha of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab: Let my father and my mother tarry with you, I beseech thee, till I know what God will do for me. 1 Ki. 22:3
That all of you have conspired against me, and there is no one to inform me, especially when even my son hath entered into league with the son of Isai? There is not one of you that pitieth my case, nor that giveth me any information: because my son hath raised up my servant against me, plotting against me to this day. 1 Ki. 22:8
And Saul said to Achimelech: Hear, thou son of Achitob. He answered: Here I am, my lord. 1 Ki. 22:12
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
Abide thou with me, fear not: for he that seeketh my life, seeketh thy life also, and with me thou shalt be saved. 1 Ki. 22:23
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
And David said: Will the men of Ceila deliver me and my men into the hands of Saul? And the Lord said: They will deliver thee up. 1 Ki. 23:12
Fear not: for the hand of my father, Saul, shall not find thee, and thou shalt reign over Israel, and I shall be next to thee; yea and my father knoweth this. 1 Ki. 23:17
And Saul said: Blessed be ye of the Lord, for you have pitied my case. 1 Ki. 23:21
And he said to his men: The Lord be merciful unto me, that I may do no such thing to my master, the Lord's anointed, as to lay my hand upon him, because he is the Lord's anointed. 1 Ki. 24:6
And David also rose up after him: and going out of the cave, cried after Saul, saying: My lord the king. And Saul looked behind him: and David bowing himself down to the ground, worshipped, 1 Ki. 24:8
Behold this day thy eyes have seen, that the Lord hath delivered thee into my hand, in the cave, and I had a thought to kill thee, 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
Moreover, see and know, O my father, the hem of thy robe in my hand, that when I cut off the hem of thy robe, I would not put out my hand against thee. Reflect, and see, that there is no evil in my hand, nor iniquity, neither have I sinned against thee: but thou liest in wait for my life, to take it away. 1 Ki. 24:11
The Lord judge between me and thee and the Lord revenge me of thee: but my hand shall not be upon thee. 1 Ki. 24:12
As also it is said in the old proverb: From the wicked shall wickedness come forth: therefore my hand shall not be upon thee. After whom dost thou come out, O king of Israel? 1 Ki. 24:13
Be the Lord judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and judge my cause, and deliver me out of thy hand. 1 Ki. 24:15
And when David had made an end of speaking these words to Saul, Saul said: Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept: 1 Ki. 24:16
Swear to me by the Lord, that thou wilt not destroy my seed after me, nor take away my name from the house of my father. 1 Ki. 24:21
He sent ten young men, and said to them: Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and salute him in my name with peace. 1 Ki. 25:5
And you shall say: Peace be to my brethren, and to thee, and peace to thy house, and peace to all that thou hast. 1 Ki. 25:6
Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and the flesh of my cattle, which I have killed for my shearers, and give to men whom I know not whence they are? 1 Ki. 25:11
And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears, and hear the words of thy servant. 1 Ki. 25:24
Let not my lord the king, I pray thee, regard this naughty man, Nabal: for according to his name, 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
Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord. 1 Ki. 25:26
Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord. 1 Ki. 25:27
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
And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel, 1 Ki. 25:30
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 blessed be thou, who hast kept me to day from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand. 1 Ki. 25:33
And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach, at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife. 1 Ki. 25:39
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 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
The Lord be merciful unto me, and keep me that I never put forth my hand against the Lord's anointed. But now take the spear which is at his head, and the cup of water, and let us go. 1 Ki. 26:11
And Saul knew David's voice, and said: Is this thy voice, my son David? And David said: It is my voice, my lord the king. 1 Ki. 26:17
And he said: Wherefore doth my lord persecute his servant? What have I done? or what evil is there in my hand? 1 Ki. 26:18
Now therefore hear, I pray thee, my lord the king, the words of thy servant: If the Lord stir thee up against me, let him accept of sacrifice: but if the sons of men, they are cursed in the sight of the Lord, who have cast me out this day, that I should not dwell in the inheritance of the Lord, saying: Go, serve strange gods. 1 Ki. 26:19
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 Saul said: I have sinned; return, my son David, for I will no more do thee harm, because my life hath been precious in thy eyes this day: for it appeareth that I have done foolishly, and have been ignorant in very many things. 1 Ki. 26:21
And the Lord will reward every one according to his justice, and his faithfulness: for the Lord hath delivered thee this day into my hand, and I would not put forth my hand against the Lord's anointed. 1 Ki. 26:23
And as thy life hath been much set by this day in my eyes, so let my life be much set by in the eyes of the Lord, and let him deliver me from all distress. 1 Ki. 26:24
Then Saul said to David: Blessed art thou, my son David: and truly doing thou shalt do, and prevailing thou shalt prevail. And David went on his way, and Saul returned to his place. 1 Ki. 26:25
And Achis believed David, saying: He hath done much harm to his people Israel: Therefore he shall be my servant for ever. 1 Ki. 27:12
And David said to Achis: Now thou shalt know what thy servant will do. And Achis said to David: And I will appoint thee to guard my life for ever. 1 Ki. 28:2
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 Samuel said to Saul: Why hast thou disturbed my rest, that I should be brought up? And Saul said: I am in great distress: for the Philistines fight against me, and God is departed from me, and would not hear me, neither by the hand of prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayst shew me what I shall do. 1 Ki. 28:15
And the woman came to Saul, (for he was very much troubled) and said to him: Behold thy handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand: and I hearkened unto the words which thou spokest to me. 1 Ki. 28:21
Then Achis called David, and said to him: As the Lord liveth, thou art upright and good in my sight: and so is thy going out, and thy coming in with me in the army: and I have not found any evil in thee, since the day that thou camest to me unto this day: but thou pleasest not the lords. 1 Ki. 29:6
And David said to Achis: But what have I done, or what hast thou found in me thy servant, from the day that I have been in thy sight until this day, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king? 1 Ki. 29:8
And Achis answering, said to David: I know that thou art good in my sight, as an angel of God: But the princes of the Philistines have said: He shall not go up with us to the battle. 1 Ki. 29:9
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 David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? and he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him. 1 Ki. 30:15
But David said: You shall not do so, my brethren, with these things, which the Lord hath given us, who hath kept us, and hath delivered the robbers that invaded us into our hands: 1 Ki. 30:23
And he said to me: Stand over me, and kill me: for anguish is come upon me, and as yet my whole life is in me. 2 Ki. 1:9
So standing over him, I killed him: for I knew that he could not live after the fall: and I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither to thee, my lord. 2 Ki. 1:10
I grieve for thee, my brother Jonathan: exceeding beautiful, and amiable to me above the love of women. As the mother loveth her only son, so did I love thee. 2 Ki. 1:26
And again Abner said to Asael: Go off, and do not follow me, lest I be obliged to stab thee to the ground, and I shall not be able to hold up my face to Joab thy brother. 2 Ki. 2:22
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
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
Now then do it: because the Lord hath spoken to David, saying: By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel from the hands of the Philistines, and of all their enemies. 2 Ki. 3:18
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 when David heard of it, after the thing was now done, he said: I, and my kingdom are innocent before the Lord for ever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner: 2 Ki. 3:28
And they brought the head of Isboseth to David to Hebron: and they said to the king: Behold the head of Isboseth the son of Saul thy enemy who sought thy life: and the Lord hath revenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed. 2 Ki. 4:8
But David answered Rechab, and Baana his brother, the sons of Remmon the Berothite, and said to them: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress, 2 Ki. 4:9
Moreover yesterday also and the day before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that did lead out and bring in Israel: and the Lord said to thee: Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel. 2 Ki. 5:2
And David consulted the Lord, Saying: Shall I go up to the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said to David: Go up, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into thy hand. 2 Ki. 5:19
And David came to Baal Pharisim: and defeated them there, and he said, The Lord hath divided my enemies before me, as waters are divided. Therefore the name of the place was called Baal Pharisim. 2 Ki. 5:20
And 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
I will both play and make myself meaner than I have done: and I will be little in my own eyes: and with the handmaids of whom thou speakest, I shall appear more glorious. 2 Ki. 6:22
Go, and say to my servant David: Thus saith the Lord: Shalt thou build me a house to dwell in? 2 Ki. 7:5
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 now thus shalt thou speak to my servant David: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I took thee out of the pastures from following the sheep to be ruler over my people Israel: 2 Ki. 7:8
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
But my mercy I will not take away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I removed from before my face. 2 Ki. 7:15
And David went in, and sat before the Lord, and said: Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me thus far? 2 Ki. 7:18
And David said to him: Fear not, for I will surely shew thee mercy for Jonathan thy father's sake, and I will restore the lands of Saul thy father, and thou shalt eat bread at my table always. 2 Ki. 9:7
Thou therefore and thy sons and thy servants shall till the land for him: and thou shalt bring in food for thy master's son, that he may be maintained: and Miphiboseth the son of thy master shall always eat bread at my table. And Siba had fifteen sons and twenty servants. 2 Ki. 9:10
And Siba said to the king: As thou my lord the king hast commanded thy servant, so will thy servant do: and Miphiboseth shall eat at my table, as one of the sons of the King. 2 Ki. 9:11
And Urias said to David: The ark of God and Israel and Juda dwell in tents, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord abide upon the face of the earth: and shall I go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to sleep with my wife? By thy welfare and by the welfare of thy soul I will not do this thing. 2 Ki. 11:11
Why therefore hast thou despised the word of the Lord, to do evil in my sight? Thou hast killed Urias the Hethite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon. 2 Ki. 12:9
Now therefore gather thou the rest of the people together, and besiege the city and take it: lest when the city shall be wasted by me, the victory be ascribed to my name. 2 Ki. 12:28
And he said to him: Why dost thou grow so lean from day to day, O son of the king? why dost thou not tell me the reason of it? And Ammon said to him: I am in love with Thamar the sister of my brother Absalom. 2 Ki. 13:4
And Jonadab said to him: Lie down upon thy bed, and feign thyself sick: and when thy father shall come to visit thee, say to him: Let my sister Thamar, I pray thee, come to me, to give me to eat, and to make me a mess, that I may eat it at her hand. 2 Ki. 13:5
So Ammon lay down, and made as if he were sick: and when the king came to visit him, Ammon said to the king: I pray thee let my sister Thamar come, and make in my sight two little messes, that I may eat at her hand. 2 Ki. 13:6
And when she had presented him the meat, he took hold of her, and said: Come lie with me, my sister. 2 Ki. 13:11
She answered him: Do not so, my brother, do not force me: for no such thing must be done in Israel. Do not thou this folly. 2 Ki. 13:12
For I shall not be able to bear my shame, and thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel: but rather speak to the king, and he will not deny me to thee. 2 Ki. 13:13
And the king said to Absalom: Nay, my son, do not ask that we should all come, and be chargeable to thee. And when he pressed him, and he would not go, he blessed him. 2 Ki. 13:25
And Absalom said: If thou wilt not come, at least let my brother Ammon, I beseech thee, come with us. And the king said to him: It is not necessary that he should go with thee. 2 Ki. 13:26
But Jonadab the son of Semmaa David's brother answering, said: Let not my lord the king think that all the king's sons are slain: Ammon only is dead, for he was appointed by the mouth of Absalom from the day that he ravished his sister Thamar. 2 Ki. 13:32
Now therefore let not my lord the king take this thing into his heart, saying: All the king's sons are slain: for Ammon only is dead. 2 Ki. 13:33
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 behold the whole kindred rising against thy handmaid, saith: Deliver him that hath slain his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother, whom he slew, and that we may destroy the heir: and they seek to quench my spark which is left, and will leave my husband no name, nor remainder upon the earth. 2 Ki. 14:7
And the woman of Thecua said to the king: Upon me, my lord be the iniquity, and upon the house of my father: but may the king and his throne be guiltless. 2 Ki. 14:9
And she said: Let the king remember the Lord his God, that the next of kin be not multiplied to take revenge, and that they may not kill my son. And he said: As the Lord liveth, there shall not one hair of thy son fall to the earth. 2 Ki. 14:11
Then the woman said: Let thy hand maid speak one word to my lord the king. And he said: Speak. 2 Ki. 14:12
Now therefore I am come, to speak this word to my lord the king before the people. And thy handmaid said: I will speak to the king, it maybe the king will perform the request of his handmaid. 2 Ki. 14:15
And the king hath hearkened to me to deliver his handmaid out of the hand of all that would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God. 2 Ki. 14:16
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
And the king answering, said to the woman: Hide not from me the thing that I ask thee. And the woman said to him: Speak, my lord the king. 2 Ki. 14:18
And the king said: Is not the hand of Joab with thee in all this? The woman answered, and said: By the health of thy soul, my lord, O king, it is neither on the left hand, nor on the right, in all these things which my lord the king hath spoken: for thy servant Joab, he commanded me, and he put all these words into the mouth of thy handmaid. 2 Ki. 14:19
That I should come about with this form of speech, thy servant Joab commanded this: but thou, my lord, O king, art wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to understand all things upon earth. 2 Ki. 14:20
And Joab falling down to the ground upon his face, adored, and blessed the king: and Joab said: This day thy servant hath understood, that I have found grace in thy sight, my lord, O king: for thou hast fulfilled the request of thy servant. 2 Ki. 14:22
But the king said: Let him return into his house, and let him not see my face. So Absalom returned into his house, and saw not the king's face. 2 Ki. 14:24
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
Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said: Why have thy servants set my corn on fire? 2 Ki. 14:31
And Absalom answered Joab: I sent to thee beseeching thee to come to me, that I might send thee to the king, to say to him: Wherefore am I come from Gessur? it had been better for me to be there: I beseech thee therefore that I may see the face of the king: and if he be mindful of my iniquity, let him kill me. 2 Ki. 14:32
And after forty years, Absalom said to king David: Let me go, and pay my vows which I have vowed to the Lord in Hebron. 2 Ki. 15:7
And Ethai answered the king, saying: As the Lord liveth, and as my lord the king liveth: in what place soever thou shalt be, my lord, O king, either in death, or in life, there will thy servant be. 2 Ki. 15:21
And the king said: Where is thy master's son? And Siba answered the king: He remained in Jerusalem, saying: To day, will the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father. 2 Ki. 16:3
And the king said to Siba: I give thee all that belonged to Miphiboseth. And Siba said: I beseech thee let me find grace before thee, my lord, O king. 2 Ki. 16:4
And Abisai the son of Sarvia said to the king: Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? I will go, and cut off his head. 2 Ki. 16:9
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
Perhaps the Lord may look upon my affliction, and the Lord may render me good for the cursing of this day. 2 Ki. 16:12
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
Yea and if I should have acted boldly against my own life, this could not have been hid from the king, and wouldst thou have stood by me? 2 Ki. 18:13
Now Absalom had reared up for himself, in his lifetime, a pillar, which is in the king's valley: for he said: I have no son, 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
Then Achimaas the son of Sadoc said to Joab again: Why might not I also run after Chusai? And Joab said to him: Why wilt thou run, my son? thou wilt not be the bearer of good tidings. 2 Ki. 18:22
And Achimaas crying out, said to the king: God save thee, O king. And falling down before the king with his face to the ground, he said: Blessed be the Lord thy God, who hath shut up the men that have lifted up their hands against the lord my king. 2 Ki. 18:28
And when he had passed, and stood still, Chusai appeared and coming up he said: I bring good tidings, my lord, the king, for the Lord hath judged for thee this day from the hand of all that have risen up against thee. 2 Ki. 18:31
And the king said to Chusai: Is the young man Absalom safe? And Chusai answering him, said: Let the enemies of my lord, the king, and all that rise against him unto evil, be as the young man is. 2 Ki. 18:32
The king therefore being much moved, went up to the high chamber over the gate, and wept. And as he went he spoke in this manner: My son Absalom, Absalom my son: would to God that I might die for thee, Absalom my son, my son Absalom. 2 Ki. 18:33
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
You are my brethren, you are my bone, and my flesh, why are you the last to bring back the king? 2 Ki. 19:12
And say ye to Amasa: Art not thou my bone, and my flesh? So do God to me and add more, if thou be not the chief captain of the army before me always in the place of Joab. 2 Ki. 19:13
Said to him: Impute not to me, my lord, the iniquity, nor remember the injuries of thy servant on the day that thou, my lord, the king, wentest out of Jerusalem, nor lay it up in thy heart, O king. 2 Ki. 19:19
For I thy servant acknowledge my sin: and therefore I am come this day the first of all the house of Joseph, and am come down to meet my lord the king. 2 Ki. 19:20
And he answering, said: My lord, O king, my servant despised me: for I thy servant spoke to him to saddle me an ass, that I might get on and go with the king: for I thy servant am lame. 2 Ki. 19:26
Moreover he hath also accused me thy servant to thee, my lord the king: but thou my lord the king art as an angel of God, do what pleaseth thee. 2 Ki. 19:27
For all of my father's house were no better than worthy of death before my lord the king; and thou hast set me thy servant among the guests of thy table: what just complaint therefore have I? or what right to cry any more to the king? 2 Ki. 19:28
And Miphiboseth answered the king: Yea, let him take all, forasmuch as my lord the king is returned peaceably into his house. 2 Ki. 19:30
And Berzellai said to the king: How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem? 2 Ki. 19:34
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
But I beseech thee let thy servant return, and die in my own city, and be buried by the sepulchre of my father, and of my mother. But there is thy servant Chamaam, let him go with thee, my lord, the king, and do to him whatsoever seemeth good to thee. 2 Ki. 19:37
And the men of Israel answered the men of Juda, and said: I have ten parts in the king more than thou, and David belongeth to me more than to thee: why hast thou done me a wrong, and why was it not told me first, that I might bring back my king? And the men of Juda answered more harshly than the men of Israel. 2 Ki. 19:43
And Joab said to Amasa: God save thee, my brother. And he took Amasa by the chin with his right hand to kiss him. 2 Ki. 20:9
And he said: The Lord is my rock, and my strength, and my saviour. 2 Ki. 22:2
God is my strong one, in him will I trust: my shield, and the horn of my salvation: he lifteth me up, and is my refuge: my saviour, thou wilt deliver me from iniquity. 2 Ki. 22:3
I will call on the Lord who is worthy to be praised: and I shall be saved from my enemies. 2 Ki. 22:4
In my distress I will call upon the Lord, and I will cry to my God: and he will hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry shall come to his ears. 2 Ki. 22:7
He delivered me from my most mighty enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me. 2 Ki. 22:18
He prevented me in the day of my affliction, and the Lord became my stay. 2 Ki. 22:19
The Lord will reward me according to my justice: and according to the cleanness of my hands he will render to me. 2 Ki. 22:21
Because I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God. 2 Ki. 22:22
For all his judgments are in my sight: and his precepts I have not removed from me. 2 Ki. 22:23
And I shall be perfect with him: and shall keep myself from my iniquity. 2 Ki. 22:24
And the Lord will recompense me according to my justice: and according to the cleanness of my hands in the sight of his eyes. 2 Ki. 22:25
For thou art my lamp O Lord: and thou, O Lord, wilt enlighten my darkness. 2 Ki. 22:29
For in thee I will run girded: in my God I will leap over the wall. 2 Ki. 22:30
God who hath girded me with strength, and made my way perfect. 2 Ki. 22:33
Making my feet like the feet of harts, and setting me upon my high places. 2 Ki. 22:34
He teacheth my hands to war: and maketh my arms like a bow of brass. 2 Ki. 22:35
Thou hast given me the shield of my salvation: and thy mildness hath multiplied me. 2 Ki. 22:36
Thou shalt enlarge my steps under me: and my ankles shall not fail. 2 Ki. 22:37
I will pursue after my enemies, and crush them: and will not return again till I consume them. 2 Ki. 22:38
I will consume them and break them in pieces, so that they shall not rise: they shall fall under my feet. 2 Ki. 22:39
My enemies thou hast made to turn their back to me: them that hated me, and I shall destroy them. 2 Ki. 22:41
Thou wilt save me from the contradictions of my people: thou wilt keep me to be the head of the Gentiles: the people which I know not, shall serve me, 2 Ki. 22:44
The Lord liveth, and my God is blessed: and the strong God of my salvation shall be exalted: 2 Ki. 22:47
Who bringest me forth from my enemies, and liftest me up from them that resist me: from the wicked man thou shalt deliver me. 2 Ki. 22:49
The spirit of the Lord hath spoken by me and his word by my tongue. 2 Ki. 23:2
Neither is my house so great with God, that he should make with me an eternal covenant, firm in all things and assured. For he is all my salvation, and all my will: neither is there ought thereof that springeth not up. 2 Ki. 23:5
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 David said to the Lord, when he saw the angel striking the people: It is I; I am he that have sinned, I have done wickedly: these that are the sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I beseech thee, be turned against me, and against my father's house. 2 Ki. 24:17
And going out he worshipped the king, bowing with his face to the earth, and said: Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said to him: To buy the thrashingfloor of thee, and build an altar to the Lord, that the plague, which rageth among the people, may cease. 2 Ki. 24:21
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
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
Now then, come, take my counsel, and save thy life, and the life of thy son Solomon. 3 Ki. 1:12
Go, and get thee in to king David, and say to him: Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear to me, thy handmaid, saying: Solomon, thy son, shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? why then doth Adonias reign? 3 Ki. 1:13
She answered, and said: My lord, thou didst swear to thy handmaid, by the Lord thy God, saying: Solomon, thy son, shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne. 3 Ki. 1:17
And behold, now Adonias reigneth, and thou, my lord the king, knowest nothing of it. 3 Ki. 1:18
And now, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldst tell them, who shall sit on thy throne, my lord the king, after thee. 3 Ki. 1:20
Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king sleepeth with his fathers, that I, and my son, Solomon, shall be counted offenders. 3 Ki. 1:21
Nathan said: My lord, O king, hast thou said: Let Adonias reign after me, and let him sit upon my throne? 3 Ki. 1:24
Is this word come out from my lord the king, and hast thou not told me, thy servant, who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him? 3 Ki. 1:27
The king swore, and said: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress, 3 Ki. 1:29

And king Solomon answered, and said to his mother: Why dost thou ask Abisag, the Sunamitess, for Adonias? ask for him also the kingdom; for he is my elder brother, and hath Abiathar, the priest, and Joab, the son of Sarvia. 3 Ki. 2:22
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
And the king said also to Abiathar, the priest: Go to Anathoth, to thy lands, for indeed thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou didst carry the ark of the Lord God before David, my father, and hast endured trouble in all the troubles my father endured. 3 Ki. 2:26
And the king said to him: Do as he hath said; and kill him, and bury him, and thou shalt remove the innocent blood which hath been shed by Joab, from me, and from the house of my father: 3 Ki. 2:31

And Semei said to the king: The saying is good: as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do. And Semei dwelt in Jerusalem many days. 3 Ki. 2:38

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 if thou wilt walk in my ways, and keep my precepts and my commandments, as thy father walked, I will lengthen thy days. 3 Ki. 3:14
And one of them said: I beseech thee, my lord, I and this woman dwelt in one house, and I was delivered of a child with her in the chamber. 3 Ki. 3:17
And rising in the dead time of the night, she took my child from my side, while I, thy handmaid, was asleep, and laid it in her bosom: and laid her dead child in my bosom. 3 Ki. 3:20
And when I rose in the morning, to give my child suck, behold it was dead: but considering him more diligently, when it was clear day, I found that it was not mine which I bore. 3 Ki. 3:21
And the other woman answered: It is not so as thou sayest, but thy child is dead, and mine is alive. On the contrary, she said; Thou liest: for my child liveth, and thy child is dead. And in this manner they strove before the king. 3 Ki. 3:22
Then said the king: The one saith, My child is alive, and thy child is dead. And the other answereth: Nay; but thy child is dead, and mine liveth. 3 Ki. 3:23
But the woman, whose child was alive, said to the king; (for her bowels were moved upon her child) I beseech thee, my lord, give her the child alive, and do not kill it. But the other said: Let it be neither mine nor thine; but divide it. 3 Ki. 3:26
Thou knowest the will of David, my father, and that he could not build a house to the name of the Lord his God, because of the wars that were round about him, until the Lord put them under the soles of his feet. 3 Ki. 5:3
But now the Lord my God hath given me rest round about; and there is no adversary nor evil occurrence. 3 Ki. 5:4
Wherefore I purpose to build a temple to the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spoke to David my father, saying: Thy son, whom I will set upon the throne, in thy place, he shall build a house to my name. 3 Ki. 5:5
Give orders, therefore, that thy servants cut me down cedar trees, out of Libanus, and let my servants be with thy servants: and I will give thee the hire of thy servants whatsoever thou wilt ask: for thou knowest how there is not among my people a man that has skill to hew wood like to the Sidonians. 3 Ki. 5:6
My servants shall bring them down from Libanus to the sea: and I will put them together in floats, on the sea, and convey them to the place, which thou shalt signify to me, and will land them there, and thou shalt receive them: and thou shalt allow me necessaries to furnish food for my household. 3 Ki. 5:9
As for this house, which thou art building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments, walking in them, I will fulfil my word to thee, which I spoke to David thy father. 3 Ki. 6:12
And I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel. 3 Ki. 6:13

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
Who hast kept with thy servant David, my father, what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth. 3 Ki. 8:24
Now, therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David, my father, what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight. 3 Ki. 8:25
And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David, my father. 3 Ki. 8:26
But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord, my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day: 3 Ki. 8:28
That thy eyes may be open upon this house, night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayst hearken to the prayer which thy servant prayeth, in this place to thee: 3 Ki. 8:29
And let these my words, wherewith I have prayed before the Lord, be nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may do judgment for his servant, and for his people Israel, day by day: 3 Ki. 8:59
And the Lord said to him: I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, which thou hast made before me: I have sanctified this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and my eyes, and my heart, shall be there always. 3 Ki. 9:3
And if thou wilt walk before me, as thy father walked, in simplicity of heart, and in uprightness: and wilt do all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my ordinances, and my judgments, 3 Ki. 9:4
But if you and your children, revolting, shall turn away from following me, and will not keep my commandments, and my ceremonies, which I have set before you, but will go and worship strange gods, and adore them: 3 Ki. 9:6
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 she said to the king: The report is true, which I heard in my own country, 3 Ki. 10:6
Concerning thy words, and concerning thy wisdom. And I did not believe them that told me, till I came myself, and saw with my own eyes, and have found that the half hath not been told me: thy wisdom and thy works exceed the fame which I heard. 3 Ki. 10:7
The Lord therefore said to Solomon: Because thou hast done this, and hast not kept my covenant, and my precepts, which I have commanded thee, I will divide and rend thy kingdom, and will give it to thy servant. 3 Ki. 11:11

Because he hath forsaken me, and hath adored Astarthe, the goddess of the Sidonians, and Chamos, the god of Moab, and Moloch, the god of the children of Ammon: and hath not walked in my ways, to do justice before me, and to keep my precepts, and judgments, as did David, his father. 3 Ki. 11:33
Yet I will not take away all the kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him prince all the days of his life, for David my servant's sake, whom I chose, who kept my commandments, and my precepts. 3 Ki. 11:34
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

O Lord, Lord, the strength of my salvation: thou hast overshadowed my head in the day of battle. Ps. 140:7
Give me not up, O Lord, from my desire to the wicked: they have plotted against me; do not thou forsake me, lest they should triumph. Ps. 140:8
¤ I have cried to thee, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee. Ps. 141:1
Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice. Ps. 141:2
Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: and a door round about my lips. Ps. 141:3
Incline not my heart to evil words; to make excuses in sins. With men that work iniquity: and I will not communicate with the choicest of them. Ps. 141:4
The just shall correct me in mercy, and shall reprove me: but let not the oil of the sinner fatten my head. For my prayer also shall still be against the things with which they are well pleased: Ps. 141:5
Their judges falling upon the rock have been swallowed up. They shall hear my words, for they have prevailed: Ps. 141:6
But to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul. Ps. 141:8
¤ I cried to the Lord with my voice: with my voice I made supplication to the Lord. Ps. 142:1
In his sight I pour out my prayer, and before him I declare my trouble: Ps. 142:2
When my spirit failed me, then thou knewest my paths. In this way wherein I walked, they have hidden a snare for me. Ps. 142:3
I looked on my right hand, and beheld, and there was no one that would know me. Flight hath failed me: and there is no one that hath regard to my soul. Ps. 142:4
I cried to thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my hope, my portion in the land of the living. Ps. 142:5
Attend to my supplication: for I am brought very low. Deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I. Ps. 142:6
Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the just wait for me, until thou reward me. Ps. 142:7
¤ Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in thy truth: hear me in thy justice. Ps. 143:1
For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: he hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been dead of old: Ps. 143:3
And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled. Ps. 143:4
I stretched forth my hands to thee: my soul is as earth without water unto thee. Ps. 143:6
Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not away thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit. Ps. 143:7
Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for in thee have I hoped. Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: for I have lifted up my soul to thee. Ps. 143:8
Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, to thee have I fled: Ps. 143:9
Teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God. Thy good spirit shall lead me into the right land: Ps. 143:10
for thy name's sake, O Lord, thou wilt quicken me in thy justice. Thou wilt bring my soul out of trouble: Ps. 143:11
And in thy mercy thou wilt destroy my enemies. And thou wilt cut off all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant. Ps. 143:12

My son, walk not thou with them, restrain thy foot from their paths. Pr. 1:15
Turn ye at my reproof: behold I will utter my spirit to you, and will shew you my words. Pr. 1:23
Because I called, and you refused: I stretched out my hand, and there was none that regarded. Pr. 1:24
You have despised all my counsel, and have neglected my reprehensions. Pr. 1:25
Nor consented to my counsel, but despised all my reproof. Pr. 1:30

Get wisdom, get prudence: forget not, neither decline from the words of my mouth. Pr. 4:5

My son, hearken to my words, and incline thy ear to my sayings. Pr. 4:20
¤ My son, attend to my wisdom, and incline thy ear to my prudence, Pr. 5:1
Now, therefore, my son, hear me, and depart not from the words of my mouth. Pr. 5:7
Why have I hated instruction, and my heart consented not to reproof, Pr. 5:12
And have not heard the voice of them that taught me, and have not inclined my ear to masters? Pr. 5:13
Why art thou seduced, my son, by a strange woman, and art cherished in the bosom of another? Pr. 5:20
¤ My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, thou hast engaged fast thy hand to a stranger, Pr. 6:1

My son, keep the commandments of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother. Pr. 6:20

Keep my commandments, and thou shalt live: and my law as the apple of thy eye: Pr. 7:2
Say to wisdom: Thou art my sister: and call prudence thy friend, Pr. 7:4
For I looked out of the window of my house through the lattice, Pr. 7:6
I vowed victims for prosperity, this day I have paid my vows. Pr. 7:14

My mouth shall meditate truth, and my lips shall hate wickedness. Pr. 8:7
All my words are just, there is nothing wicked, nor perverse in them. Pr. 8:8
Receive my instruction, and not money: choose knowledge rather than gold. Pr. 8:10
For my fruit is better than gold and the precious stone, and my blossoms than choice silver. Pr. 8:19
Playing in the world: and my delights were to be with the children of men. Pr. 8:31
Now, therefore, ye children, hear me: blessed are they that keep my ways. Pr. 8:32
Blessed is the man that heareth me, and that watcheth daily at my gates, and waiteth at the posts of my doors. Pr. 8:34

Incline thy ear, and hear the words of the wise: and apply thy heart to my doctrine: Pr. 22:17
My son, if thy mind be wise, my heart shall rejoice with thee: Pr. 23:15
And my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips shall speak what is right. Pr. 23:16
Hear thou, my son, and be wise: and guide thy mind in the way. Pr. 23:19
My son, give me thy heart: and let thy eyes keep my ways. Pr. 23:26
Eat honey, my son, because it is good, and the honeycomb most sweet to thy throat. Pr. 24:13

Study wisdom, my son, and make my heart joyful, that thou mayst give an answer to him that reproacheth. Pr. 27:11
Lest perhaps being filled, I should be tempted to deny, and say: Who is the Lord? or being compelled by poverty, I should steal, and forswear the name of my God. Pr. 30:9
What, O my beloved, what, O the beloved of my womb, what, O the beloved of my vows? Pr. 31:2
And I proposed in my mind to seek and search out wisely concerning all things that are done under the sun. This painful occupation hath God given to the children of men, to be exercised therein. Eccl. 1:13
I have spoken in my heart, saying: Behold I am become great, and have gone beyond all in wisdom, that were before me in Jerusalem: and my mind hath contemplated many things wisely, and I have learned. Eccl. 1:16
And I have given my heart to know prudence, and learning, and errors, and folly: and I have perceived that in these also there was labour, and vexation of spirit, Eccl. 1:17
¤ I said in my heart: I will go, and abound with delights, and enjoy good things. And I saw that this also was vanity. Eccl. 2:1
I thought in my heart, to withdraw my flesh from wine, that I might turn my mind to wisdom, and might avoid folly, till I might see what was profitable for the children of men: and what they ought to do under the sun, all the days of their life. Eccl. 2:3
And I surpassed in riches all that were before me in Jerusalem: my wisdom also remained with me. Eccl. 2:9
And whatsoever my eyes desired, I refused them not: and I withheld not my heart from enjoying every pleasure, and delighting itself in the things which I had prepared: and esteemed this my portion, to make use of my own labour. Eccl. 2:10
And when I turned myself to all the works which my hands had wrought, and to the labours wherein I had laboured in vain, I saw in all things vanity, and vexation of mind, and that nothing was lasting under the sun. Eccl. 2:11
And I said in my heart: If the death of the fool and mine shall be one, what doth it avail me, that I have applied myself more to the study of wisdom? And speaking with my own mind, I perceived that this also was vanity. Eccl. 2:15
And therefore I was weary of my life, when I saw that all things under the sun are evil, and all vanity and vexation of spirit. Eccl. 2:17
Again I hated all my application wherewith I had earnestly laboured under the sun, being like to have an heir after me, Eccl. 2:18
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
Wherefore I left off and my heart renounced labouring anymore under the sun. Eccl. 2:20
And I said in my heart: God shall judge both the just and the wicked, and then shall be the time of every thing. Eccl. 3:17
I said in my heart concerning the sons of men, that God would prove them, and shew them to be like beasts. Eccl. 3:18
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
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
I have surveyed all things with my mind, to know, and consider, and seek out wisdom and reason: and to know the wickedness of the fool, and the error of the imprudent: Eccl. 7:25
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
All these things I have considered, and applied my heart to all the works that are done under the sun. Sometimes one man ruleth over another to his own hurt. Eccl. 8:9
And I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to understand the distraction that is upon earth: for there are some that day and night take no sleep with their eyes. Eccl. 8:16
¤ All these things have I considered in my heart, that I might carefully understand them: there are just men and wise men, and their works are in the hand of God: and yet man knoweth not whether he be worthy of love, or hatred: Eccl. 9:1
More than these, my son, require not. Of making many books there is no end: and much study is an affliction of the flesh. Eccl. 12:12
Do not consider me that I am brown, because the sun hath altered my colour: the sons of my mother have fought against me, they have made me the keeper in the vineyards: my vineyard I have not kept. Cant. 1:6
Shew me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou liest in the midday, lest I begin to wander after the flocks of thy companions. Cant. 1:7

His left hand is under my head, and his right hand shall embrace me. Cant. 2:6
The voice of my beloved, behold he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping over the hills. Cant. 2:8

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
¤ In my bed by night I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, and found him not. Cant. 3:1

The watchmen who keep the city, found me: Have you seen him, whom my soul loveth? Cant. 3:3
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
I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes and the harts of the fields, that you stir not up, nor awake my beloved, till she please. Cant. 3:5
¤ How beautiful art thou, my love, how beautiful art thou! thy eyes are doves' eyes, besides what is hid within. Thy hair is as flocks of goats, which come up from mount Galaad. Cant. 4:1
Thou art all fair, O my love, and there is not a spot in thee. Cant. 4:7
Come from Libanus, my spouse, come from Libanus, come: thou shalt be crowned from the top of Amana, from the top of Sanir and Hermon, from the dens of the lions, from the mountains of the leopards. Cant. 4:8
Thou hast wounded my heart, my sister, my spouse, thou hast wounded my heart with one of thy eyes, and with one hair of thy neck. Cant. 4:9
How beautiful are thy breasts, my sister, my spouse! thy breasts are more beautiful than wine, and the sweet smell of thy ointments above all aromatical spices. Cant. 4:10
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
My sister, my spouse, is a garden enclosed, a garden enclosed, a fountain sealed up. Cant. 4:12
Arise, O north wind, and come, O south wind, blow through my garden, and let the aromatical spices thereof flow. Cant. 4:16
¤ Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat the fruit of his apple trees. I am come into my garden, O my sister, my spouse, I have gathered my myrrh, with my aromatical spices: I have eaten the honeycomb with my honey, I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends, and drink, and be inebriated, my dearly beloved. Cant. 5:1
I sleep, and my heart watcheth: the voice of my beloved knocking: Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is full of dew, and my locks of the drops of the nights. Cant. 5:2
I have put off my garment, how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet, how shall I defile them? Cant. 5:3
My beloved put his hand through the key hole, and my bowels were moved at his touch. Cant. 5:4
I arose up to open to my beloved: my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers were full of the choicest myrrh. Cant. 5:5
I opened the bolt of my door to my beloved: but he had turned aside, and was gone. My soul melted when he spoke: I sought him, and found him not: I called, and he did not answer me. Cant. 5:6
The keepers that go about the city found me: they struck me: and wounded me: the keepers of the walls took away my veil from me. Cant. 5:7
I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my beloved, that you tell him that I languish with love. Cant. 5:8

One is my dove, my perfect one is but one, she is the only one of her mother, the chosen of her that bore her. The daughters saw her, and declared her most blessed: the queens and concubines, and they praised her. Cant. 6:9
I knew not: my soul troubled me for the chariots of Aminadab. Cant. 6:12
How beautiful art thou, and how comely, my dearest, in delights! Cant. 7:6
Thy throat like the best wine, worthy for my beloved to drink, and for his lips and his teeth to ruminate. Cant. 7:9
I to my beloved, and his turning is towards me. Cant. 7:10
Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field, let us abide in the villages. Cant. 7:11
Let us get up early to the vineyards, let us see if the vineyard flourish, if the flowers be ready to bring forth fruits, if the pomegranates flourish: there will I give thee my breasts. Cant. 7:12
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 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
They shall wait for me when I hold my peace, and they shall look upon me when I speak; and if I talk much, they shall lay their hands on their mouth. Wis. 8:12
When I go into my house, I shall repose myself with her: for her conversation hath no bitterness, nor her company any tediousness, but joy and gladness. Wis. 8:16
Thinking these things with myself, and pondering them in my heart, that to be allied to wisdom is immortality, Wis. 8:17
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
¤ God of my fathers, and Lord of mercy, who hast made all things with thy word, Wis. 9:1
For she knoweth and understandeth all things, and shall lead me soberly in my works, and shall preserve me by her power. Wis. 9:11
So shall my works be acceptable, and I shall govern thy people justly, and shall be worthy of the throne of my father. Wis. 9:12
My children behold the generations of men: and know ye that no one hath hoped in the Lord, and hath been confounded. Sir. 2:11

My son, keep thy soul in meekness, and give it honour according to its desert. Sir. 10:31
My son, meddle not with many matters: and if thou be rich, thou shalt not be free from sin: for if thou pursue after thou shalt not overtake; and if thou run before thou shalt not escape. Sir. 11:10
In that he saith: I have found me rest, and now I will eat of my goods alone: Sir. 11:19
Set him not by thee, neither let him sit on thy right hand, lest he turn into thy place, and seek to take thy seat and at the last thou acknowledge my words, and be pricked with my sayings. Sir. 12:12

And I will shew forth good doctrine in equity, and will seek to declare wisdom: and attend to my words in thy heart, whilst with equity of spirit I tell thee the virtues that God hath put upon his works from the beginning, and I shew forth in truth his knowledge. Sir. 16:25
My son, in thy good deeds, make no complaint, and when thou givest any thing, add not grief by an evil word. Sir. 18:15
¤ My son, hast thou sinned? do so no more: but for thy former sins also pray that they may be forgiven thee. Sir. 21:1
Who will set a guard before my mouth, and a sure seal upon my lips, that I fall not by them, and that my tongue destroy me not? Sir. 22:33
¤ O Lord, father, and sovereign ruler of my life, leave me not to their counsel: nor suffer me to fall by them. Sir. 23:1
Who will set scourges over my thoughts, and the discipline of wisdom over my heart, that they spare me not in their ignorances, and that their sins may not appear: Sir. 23:2
Lest my ignorances increase, and my offences be multiplied, and my sins abound, and I fall before my adversaries, and my enemy rejoice over me? Sir. 23:3
O Lord, father, and God of my life, leave me not to their devices. Sir. 23:4
Give me not haughtiness of my eyes, and turn away from me all coveting. Sir. 23:5
Darkness compasseth me about, and the walls cover me, and no man seeth me: whom do I fear? the most High will not remember my sins. Sir. 23:26
I dwelt in the highest places, and my throne is in a pillar of a cloud. Sir. 24:7
And by my power I have trodden under my feet the hearts of all the high and low: and in all these I sought rest, and I shall abide in the inheritance of the Lord. Sir. 24:11
Then the creator of all things commanded, and said to me: and he that made me, rested in my tabernacle, Sir. 24:12
And he said to me: Let thy dwelling be in Jacob, and thy inheritance in Israel, and take root in my elect. Sir. 24:13
And so was I established in Sion, and in the holy city likewise I rested, and my power was in Jerusalem. Sir. 24:15
And I took root in an honourable people, and in the portion of my God his inheritance, and my abode is in the full assembly of saints. Sir. 24:16

I have stretched out my branches as the turpentine tree, and my branches are of honour and grace. Sir. 24:22
As the vine I have brought forth a pleasant odour: and my flowers are the fruit of honour and riches. Sir. 24:23

For my spirit is sweet above honey, and my inheritance above honey and the honeycomb. Sir. 24:27

I said: I will water my garden of plants, and I will water abundantly the fruits of my meadow. Sir. 24:42
And behold my brook became a great river, and my river came near to a sea: Sir. 24:43

And I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that book: Ezec. 3:2
And he said to me: Son of man, thy belly shall eat, and thy bowels shall be filled with this book, which I give thee, and I did eat it: and it was sweet as honey in my mouth. Ezec. 3:3
And he said to me: Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and thou shalt speak my words to them. Ezec. 3:4
The spirit also lifted me, and took me up: and I went away in bitterness in the indignation of my spirit: for the hand of the Lord was with me, strengthening me. Ezec. 3:14
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
And I rose up, and went forth into the plain: and behold the glory of the Lord stood there, like the glory which I saw by the river Chobar: and I fell upon my face. Ezec. 3:23
And the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet: and he spoke to me, and said to me: Go in; and shut thyself up in the midst of thy house. Ezec. 3:24
And I said: Ah, ah, ah, O Lord God, behold my soul hath not been defiled, and from my infancy even till now, I have not eaten any thing that died of itself, or was torn by beasts, and no unclean flesh hath entered into my mouth. Ezec. 4:14
And she hath despised my judgments, so as to be more wicked than the Gentiles; and my commandments, more than the countries that are round about her: for they have cast off my judgments, and have not walked in my commandments. Ezec. 5:6
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because you have surpassed the Gentiles that are round about you, and have not walked in my commandments, and have not kept my judgments, and have not done according to the judgments of the nations that are round about you: Ezec. 5:7
Therefore as I live, saith the Lord God: Because thou hast violated my sanctuary with all thy offences, and with all thy abominations: I will also break thee in pieces, and my eye shall not spare, and I will not have any pity. Ezec. 5:11
And I will accomplish my fury, and will cause my indignation to rest upon them, and I will be comforted: and they shall know that I the Lord have spoken it in my zeal, when I shall have accomplished my indignation in them. Ezec. 5:13
He that is far off shall die of the pestilence: and he that is near, shall fall by the sword: and he that remaineth, and is besieged, shall die by the famine: and I will accomplish my indignation upon them. Ezec. 6:12
And I will stretch forth my hand upon them: and I will make the land desolate, and abandoned from the desert of Deblatha in all their dwelling places: and they shall know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 6:14
Now is an end come upon thee, and I will send my wrath upon thee, and I will judge thee according to thy ways: and I will set all thy abominations against thee. Ezec. 7:3
And my eye shall not spare thee, and I will shew thee no pity: but I will lay thy ways upon thee, and thy abominations shall be in the midst of thee: and you shall know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 7:4
Now very shortly I will pour out my wrath upon thee, and I will accomplish my anger in thee: and I will judge thee according to thy ways, and I will lay upon thee all thy crimes. Ezec. 7:8
And my eye shall not spare, neither will I shew mercy: but I will lay thy ways upon thee, and thy abominations shall be in the midst of thee: and you shall know that I am the Lord that strike. Ezec. 7:9
Blow the trumpet, let all be made ready, yet there is none to go to the battle: for my wrath shall be upon all the people thereof. Ezec. 7:14
And I will turn away my face from them, and they shall violate my secret place: and robbers shall enter into it, and defile it. Ezec. 7:22
¤ And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the ancients of Juda sat before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell there upon me. Ezec. 8:1
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 said to me: Son of man, lift up thy eyes towards the way of the north, and I lifted up my eyes towards the way of the north: and behold on the north side of the gate of the altar the idol of jealousy in the very entry. Ezec. 8:5
And he said to me: Son of man, dost thou see, thinkest thou, what these are doing, the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should depart far off from my sanctuary? and turn thee yet again and thou shalt see greater abominations. Ezec. 8:6
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
¤ 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 to the others he said in my hearing: Go ye after him through the city, and strike: let not your eyes spare, nor be ye moved with pity. Ezec. 9:5
Utterly destroy old and young, maidens, children and women: but upon whomsoever you shall see Thau, kill him not, and begin ye at my sanctuary. So they began at the ancient men who were before the house. Ezec. 9:6
And the slaughter being ended I was left; and I fell upon my face, and crying, I said: Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, wilt thou then destroy all the remnant of Israel, by pouring out thy fury upon Jerusalem? Ezec. 9:8
Therefore neither shall my eye spare, nor will I have pity: I will requite their way upon their head. Ezec. 9:10
And he spoke to the man, that was clothed with linen, and said: Go in between the wheels that are under the cherubims and fill thy hand with the coals of fire that are between the cherubims, and pour them out upon the city. And he went in, in my sight: Ezec. 10:2
And these wheels he called voluble, in my hearing. Ezec. 10:13
And you shall know that I am the Lord: because you have not walked in my commandments, and have not done my judgments, but you have done according to the judgments of the nations that are round about you. Ezec. 11:12
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
That they may walk in my commandments, and keep my judgments, and do them: and that they may be my people, and I may be their God. Ezec. 11:20
I did therefore as he had commanded me: I brought forth my goods by day, as the goods of one that removeth: and in the evening I digged through the wall with my hand, and I went forth in the dark, and was carried on men's shoulders in their sight. Ezec. 12:7
Say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: This burden concerneth my prince that is in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel, that are among them. Ezec. 12:10
And I will spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my net: and I will bring him into Babylon, into the land of the Chaldeans, and he shall not see it, and there he shall die. Ezec. 12:13
And my hand shall be upon the prophets that see vain things, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the council of my people, nor shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel, and you shall know that I am the Lord God. Ezec. 13:9
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
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 I will accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that daub it without tempering the mortar, and I will say to you: The wall is no more, and they that daub it are no more. Ezec. 13:15
And say: Thus saith the Lord God: Woe to them that sew cushions under every elbow: and make pillows for the heads of persons of every age to catch souls: and when they caught the souls of my people, they gave life to their souls. Ezec. 13:18
And they violated me 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
Therefore you shall not see vain things, nor divine divinations any more, and I will deliver my people out of your hand: and you shall know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 13:23
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 the prophet shall err, 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
That the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, nor be polluted with all their transgressions: but may be my people, and I may be their God, saith the Lord of hosts. Ezec. 14:11
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
Or if I also send the pestilence upon that land, and pour out my indignation upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast: Ezec. 14:19
For thus saith the Lord: Although I shall send in upon Jerusalem my four grievous judgments, the sword, and the famine, and the mischievous beasts, and the pestilence, to destroy out of it man and beast, Ezec. 14:21
And I will set my face against them: they shall go out from fire, and fire shall consume them: and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have set my face against them. Ezec. 15:7
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
And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 16:14
And thou tookest thy beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication with them. Ezec. 16:17
And thou tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them. Ezec. 16:18
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
Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire. Ezec. 16:21
Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the Philistines that hate thee, that are ashamed of thy wicked way. Ezec. 16:27
And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more. Ezec. 16:42
And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant. Ezec. 16:60
And I will establish my covenant with thee: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord, Ezec. 16:62
And I will spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my net: and I will bring him into Babylon, and will judge him there for the transgression by which he hath despised me. Ezec. 17:20
Hath walked in my commandments, and kept my judgments, to do truth: he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 18:9
That hath turned away his hand from injuring the poor, hath not taken usury and increase, but hath executed my judgments, and hath walked in my commandments: this man shall not die for the iniquity of his father, but living he shall live. Ezec. 18:17
And you say: Why hath not the son borne the iniquity of his father? Verily, because the son hath wrought judgment and justice, hath kept all my commandments, and done them, living, he shall live. Ezec. 18:19
But if the wicked do penance for all his sins which he hath committed, and keep all my commandments, and do judgment, and justice, living he shall live, and shall not die. Ezec. 18:21
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
And you have said: The way of the Lord is not right. Hear ye, therefore, O house of Israel: Is it my way that is not right, and are not rather your ways perverse? Ezec. 18:25
And the children of Israel say: The way of the Lord is not right. Are not my ways right, O house of Israel, and are not rather your ways perverse? Ezec. 18:29
And say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand for the race of the house of Jacob: and appeared to them in the land of Egypt, and lifted up my hand for them, saying: I am the Lord your God: Ezec. 20:5
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
But they provoked me, and would not hearken to me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of his eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: and I said I would pour out my indignation upon them, and accomplish my wrath against them in the midst of the land of Egypt. Ezec. 20:8
But I did otherwise for my name's sake, that it might not be violated before the nations, in the midst of whom they were, and among whom I made myself known to them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt. Ezec. 20:9
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
But I spared them for the sake of my name, lest it should be profaned before the nations, from which I brought them out, in their sight. Ezec. 20:14
So I lifted up my hand over them in the desert, not to bring them into the land which I had given them flowing with milk and honey, the best of all lands. Ezec. 20:15
Because they cast off my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, and violated my sabbaths: for their heart went after idols. Ezec. 20:16
Yet my eye spared them, so that I destroyed them not: neither did I consume them in the desert. Ezec. 20:17
I am the Lord your God: walk ye in my statutes, and observe my judgments, and do them. Ezec. 20:19
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
But I turned away my hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it might not be violated before the nations, out of which I brought them forth in their sight. Ezec. 20:22
Again I lifted up my hand upon them in the wilderness, to disperse them among the nations, and scatter them through the countries: Ezec. 20:23
Because they had not done my judgments, and had cast off my statutes, and had violated my sabbaths, and their eyes had been after the idols of their fathers. Ezec. 20:24
And I had brought them into the land, for which I lifted up my hand to give it them: they saw every high hill, and every shady tree, and there they sacrificed their victims: and there they presented the provocation of their offerings, and there they set their sweet odours, and poured forth their libations. Ezec. 20:28
And I will make you subject to my sceptre, and will bring you into the bands of the covenant. Ezec. 20:37
And as for you, O house of Israel: thus saith the Lord God: Walk ye every one after your idols, and serve them. But if in this also you hear me not, but defile my holy name any more with your gifts, and with your idols; Ezec. 20:39
In my holy mountain, in the high mountain of Israel, saith the Lord God, there shall all the house of Israel serve me; all of them I say, in the land in which they shall please me, and there will I require your firstfruits, and the chief of your tithes with all your sanctifications. Ezec. 20:40
And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have brought you into the land of Israel, into the land for which I lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers. Ezec. 20:42
And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have done well by you for my own name's sake, and not according to your evil ways, nor according to your wicked deeds, O house of Israel, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 20:44
And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, and I will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off in thee the just, and the wicked. Ezec. 21:3
And forasmuch as I have cut off in thee the just and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh, from the south even to the north. Ezec. 21:4
That all flesh may know that I the Lord have drawn my sword out of its sheath not to be turned back. Ezec. 21:5
It is sharpened to kill victims: it is furbished that it may glitter: thou removest the sceptre of my son, thou hast cut down every tree. Ezec. 21:10
Cry, and howl, O son of man, for this sword is upon my people, it is upon all the princes of Israel, that are fled: they are delivered up to the sword with my people, strike therefore upon thy thigh, Ezec. 21:12
And I will clap my hands together, and will satisfy my indignation: I the Lord have spoken. Ezec. 21:17
And I will pour out upon thee my indignation: in the fire of my rage will I blow upon thee, and will give thee into the hands of men that are brutish and contrive thy destruction. Ezec. 21:31
Thou hast despised my sanctuaries, and profaned my sabbaths. Ezec. 22:8
Behold, I have clapped my hands at thy covetousness, which thou hast exercised: and at the blood that hath been shed in the midst of thee. Ezec. 22:13
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
And I will gather you together, and will burn you in the fire of my wrath, and you shall be melted in the midst thereof. Ezec. 22:21
As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall you be in the midst thereof: and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have poured out my indignation upon you. Ezec. 22:22
Her priests have despised my law, and have defiled my sanctuaries: they have put no difference between holy and profane: nor have distinguished between the polluted and the clean: and they have turned away their eyes from my sabbaths, and I was profaned in the midst of them. Ezec. 22:26
And I poured out my indignation upon them, in the fire of my wrath I consumed them: I have rendered their way upon their own head, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 22:31
And she discovered her fornications, and discovered her disgrace: and my soul was alienated from her, as my soul was alienated from her sister. Ezec. 23:18
And I will set my jealousy against thee, which they shall execute upon thee with fury: they shall cut off thy nose and thy ears: and what remains shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons, and thy daughters, and thy residue shall be devoured by fire. Ezec. 23:25
Yea, and they have done this to me. They polluted my sanctuary on the same day, and profaned my sabbaths. Ezec. 23:38
And when they sacrificed their children to their idols, and went into my sanctuary the same day to profane it: they did these things even in the midst of my house. Ezec. 23:39
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 that I might bring my indignation upon her, and take my vengeance: I have shed her blood upon the smooth rock, that it should not be covered. Ezec. 24:8
Thy uncleanness is execrable: because I desired to cleanse thee, and thou art not cleansed from thy filthiness: neither shalt thou be cleansed, before I cause my indignation to rest in thee. Ezec. 24:13
So I spoke to the people in the morning, and my wife died in the evening: and I did in the morning as he had commanded me. Ezec. 24:18
Speak to the house of Israel: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will profane my sanctuary, the glory of your realm, and the thing that your eyes desire, and for which your soul feareth: your sons, and your daughters, whom you have left, shall fall by the sword. Ezec. 24:21
And thou shalt say to the children of Ammon: Hear ye the word of the Lord God: Thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast said: Ha, ha, upon my sanctuary, because it was profaned: and upon the land of Israel, because it was laid waste: and upon the house of Juda, because they are led into captivity: Ezec. 25:3
Therefore behold I will stretch forth my hand upon thee, and will deliver thee to be the spoil of nations, and will cut thee off from among the people, and destroy thee out of the lands, and break thee in pieces: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord. Ezec. 25:7
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: I will stretch forth my hand upon Edom, and will take away out of it man and beast, and will make it desolate from the south: and they that are in Dedan shall fall by the sword. Ezec. 25:13
And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to my wrath, and my fury: and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 25:14
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will stretch forth my hand upon the Philistines, and will kill the killers, and will destroy the remnant of the sea coast. Ezec. 25:16
And I will execute great vengeance upon them, rebuking them in fury: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them. Ezec. 25:17
Thus saith the Lord God: When I shall have gathered together the house of Israel out of the people among whom they are scattered: I will be sanctified in them before the Gentiles: and they shall dwell in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob. Ezec. 28:25
In that day shall messengers go forth from my face in ships to destroy the confidence of Ethiopia, and there shall be dread among them in the day of Egypt: because it shall certainly come. Ezec. 30:9
And I will pour out my indignation upon Pelusium the strength of Egypt, and will cut off the multitude of Alexandria. Ezec. 30:15
And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and will put my sword in his hand: and I will break the arms of Pharao, and they shall groan bitterly being slain before his face. Ezec. 30:24
And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharao shall fall: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have given my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall have stretched it forth upon the land of Egypt. Ezec. 30:25
Therefore, thus saith the Lord God: I will spread out my net over thee with the multitude of many people, and I will draw thee up in my net. Ezec. 32:3
And I will make many people to be amazed at thee, and their kings shall be horribly afraid for thee, when my sword shall begin to fly upon their faces: and they shall be astonished on a sudden, every one for his own life, in the day of their ruin. Ezec. 32:10
Because I have spread my terror in the land of the living, and he hath slept in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that are slain by the sword: Pharao and all his multitude, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 32:32
So thou, O son of man, I have made thee a watchman to the house of Israel: therefore thou shalt hear the word from my mouth, and shalt tell it them from me. Ezec. 33:7
And the hand of the Lord had been upon me in the evening, before he that was fled came: and he opened my mouth till he came to me in the morning, and my mouth being opened, I was silent no more. Ezec. 33:22
And they come to thee, as if people were coming in, and my people sit before thee: and hear thy words, and do them not: for they turn them into a song of their mouth, and their heart goeth after their covetousness. Ezec. 33:31
You ate the milk, and you clothed yourselves with the wool, and you killed that which was fat: but my flock you did not feed. Ezec. 34:3
And my sheep were scattered, because there was no shepherd and they became the prey of all the beasts of the field, and were scattered. Ezec. 34:5
My sheep have wandered in every mountain, and in every high hill: and my flocks were scattered upon the face of the earth, and there was none that sought them, there was none, I say, that sought them. Ezec. 34:6
As I live, saith the Lord God, forasmuch as my flocks have been made a spoil, and my sheep are become a prey to all the beasts of the field, because there was no shepherd: for my shepherds did not seek after my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flocks: Ezec. 34:8
Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I myself come upon the shepherds, I will require my flock at their hand, and I will cause them to cease from feeding the flock any more, neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more: and I will deliver my flock from their mouth, and it shall no more be meat for them. Ezec. 34:10
For thus saith the Lord God: Behold I myself will seek my sheep, and will visit them. Ezec. 34:11
As the shepherd visiteth his flock in the day when he shall be in the midst of his sheep that were scattered, so will I visit my sheep, and will deliver them out of all the places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day. Ezec. 34:12
I will feed my sheep: and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 34:15
And as for you, O my flocks, thus saith the Lord God: Behold I judge between cattle and cattle, of rams and of he goats. Ezec. 34:17
And my sheep were fed with that which you had trodden with your feet: and they drank what your feet had troubled. Ezec. 34:19
I will save my flock, and it shall be no more a spoil, and I will judge between cattle and cattle. Ezec. 34:22
And I WILL SET UP ONE SHEPHERD OVER THEM, and he shall feed them, even my servant David: he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd. Ezec. 34:23
And I the Lord will be their God: and my servant David the prince in the midst of them: I the Lord have spoken it. Ezec. 34:24
And I will make them a blessing round about my hill: and I will send down the rain in its season, there shall be showers of blessing. Ezec. 34:26
And they shall know that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they are my people the house of Israel: saith the Lord God. Ezec. 34:30
And you my flocks, the flocks of my pasture are men: and I am the Lord your God, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 34:31
Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, mount Seir, and I will stretch forth my hand upon thee, and I will make thee desolate and waste. Ezec. 35:3
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: In the fire of my zeal I have spoken of the rest of the nations, and of all Edom, who have taken my land to themselves, for an inheritance with joy, and with all the heart, and with the mind: and have cast it out to lay it waste. Ezec. 36:5
Prophesy therefore concerning the land of Israel, and say to the mountains, and to the hills, to the ridges, and to the valleys: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I have spoken in my zeal, and in my indignation, because you have borne the shame of the Gentiles. Ezec. 36:6
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: I have lifted up my hand, that the Gentiles who are round about you, shall themselves bear their shame. Ezec. 36:7
But as for you, O mountains of Israel, shoot ye forth your branches, and yield your fruit to my people of Israel: for they are at hand to come. Ezec. 36:8
And I will bring men upon you, my people Israel, and they shall possess thee for their inheritance: and thou shalt be their inheritance, and shalt no more henceforth be without them. Ezec. 36:12
And I poured out my indignation upon them for the blood which they had shed upon the land, and with their idols they defiled it. Ezec. 36:18
And when they entered among the nations whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when it was said of them: This is the people of the Lord, and they are come forth out of his land. Ezec. 36:20
And I have regarded my own holy name, which the house of Israel hath profaned among the nations to which they went in. Ezec. 36:21
Therefore thou shalt say to the house of Israel: Thus saith the Lord God: It is not for your sake that I will do this, O house of Israel, but for my holy name's sake, which you have profaned among the nations whither you went. Ezec. 36:22
And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the Gentiles, which you have profaned in the midst of them: that the Gentiles may know that I am the Lord, saith the Lord of hosts, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes. Ezec. 36:23
And I will put my spirit in the midst of you: and I will cause you to walk in my commandments, and to keep my judgments, and do them. Ezec. 36:27
And you shall dwell in the land which I gave to your fathers, and you shall be my people, and I will be your God. Ezec. 36:28
Therefore prophesy, and say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will open your graves, and will bring you out of your sepulchres, O my people: and will bring you into the land of Israel. Ezec. 37:12
And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have opened your sepulchres, and shall have brought you out of your graves, O my people: Ezec. 37:13
And shall have put my spirit in you, and you shall live, and I shall make you rest upon your own land: and you shall know that I the Lord have spoken, and done it, saith the Lord God: Ezec. 37:14
Nor shall they be defiled any more with their idols, nor with their abominations, nor with all their iniquities: and I will save them out of all the places in which they have sinned, and I will cleanse them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God. Ezec. 37:23
And my servant David shall be king over them, and they shall have one shepherd: they shall walk in my judgments, and shall keep my commandments, and shall do them. Ezec. 37:24
And they shall dwell in the land which I gave to my servant Jacob, wherein your fathers dwelt, and they shall dwell in it, they and their children, and their children's children, for ever: and David my servant shall be their prince for ever. Ezec. 37:25
And I will make a covenant of peace with them, it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will establish them, and will multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for ever. Ezec. 37:26
And my tabernacle shall be with them: and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Ezec. 37:27
And the nations shall know that I am the Lord the sanctifier of Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for ever. Ezec. 37:28
Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy and say to Gog: Thus saith the Lord God: Shalt thou not know, in that day, when my people of Israel shall dwell securely? Ezec. 38:14
And thou shalt come upon my people of Israel like a cloud, to cover the earth. Thou shalt be in the latter days, and I will bring thee upon my land: that the nations may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes. Ezec. 38:16
Thus saith the Lord God: Thou then art he, of whom I have spoken in the days of old, by my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in the days of those times that I would bring thee upon them. Ezec. 38:17
And it shall come to pass in that day, in the day of the coming of Gog upon the land of Israel, saith the Lord God, that my indignation shall come up in my wrath. Ezec. 38:18
And I have spoken in my zeal, and in the fire of my anger, that in that day there shall be a great commotion upon the land of Israel: Ezec. 38:19
So that the fishes of the sea, and the birds of the air, and the beasts of the field, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the ground, and all men that are upon the face of the earth, shall be moved at my presence: and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the hedges shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground. Ezec. 38:20
And I will call in the sword against him in all my mountains, saith the Lord God: every man's sword shall be pointed against his brother. Ezec. 38:21
And I will make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel, and my holy name shall be profaned no more: and the Gentiles shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. Ezec. 39:7
And thou, O son of man, saith the Lord God, say to every fowl, and to all the birds, and to all the beasts of the field: Assemble yourselves, make haste, come together from every side to my victim, which I slay for you, a great victim upon the mountains of Israel: to eat flesh, and drink blood. Ezec. 39:17
And you shall be filled at my table with horses, and mighty horsemen, and all the men of war, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 39:20
And I will set my glory among the nations: and all nations shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them. Ezec. 39:21
And the nations shall know that the house of Israel were made captives for their iniquity, because they forsook me, and I hid my face from them: and I delivered them into the hands of their enemies, and they fell all by the sword. Ezec. 39:23
I have dealt with them according to their uncleanness, and wickedness, and hid my face from them. Ezec. 39:24
Therefore, thus saith the Lord God: Now will I bring back the captivity of Jacob, and will have mercy on all the house of Israel and I will be jealous for my holy name. Ezec. 39:25
And I will hide my face no more from them, for I have poured out my spirit upon all the house of Israel, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 39:29
And I saw the vision according to the appearance which I had seen when he came to destroy the city: and the appearance was according to the vision which I had seen by the river Chobar: and I fell upon my face. Ezec. 43:3
Said to me: Son of man, the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever: and the house of Israel shall no more profane my holy name, they and their kings by their fornications, and by the carcasses of their kings, and by the high places. Ezec. 43:7
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 he brought me by the way of the north gate, in the sight of the house: and I saw, and behold the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord: and I fell on my face. Ezec. 44:4
In that you have brought in strangers uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, and to defile my house: and you offer my bread, the fat, and the blood: and you have broken my covenant by all your wicked doings. Ezec. 44:7
And you have not kept the ordinances of my sanctuary: but you have set keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves. Ezec. 44:8
Thus saith the Lord God: No stranger uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, no stranger that is in the midst of the children of Israel. Ezec. 44:9
They shall be officers in my sanctuary, and doorkeepers of the gates of the house, and ministers to the house: they shall slay the holocausts, and the victims of the people: and they shall stand in their sight, to minister to them. Ezec. 44:11
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
And they shall not come near to me, to do the office of priest to me, neither shall they come near to any of my holy things that are by the holy of holies: but they shall bear their shame, and their wickednesses which they have committed. Ezec. 44:13
But the priests, and Levites, the sons of Sadoc, who kept the ceremonies of my sanctuary, when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me, to minister to me: and they shall stand before me, to offer me the fat, and the blood, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 44:15
They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister unto me, and to keep my ceremonies. Ezec. 44:16
And they shall teach my people the difference between holy and profane, and shew them how to discern between clean and unclean. Ezec. 44:23
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
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
Thus saith the Lord God: Let it suffice you, O princes of Israel: cease from iniquity and robberies, and execute judgment and justice, separate your confines from my people, saith the Lord God. Ezec. 45:9
And the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance by violence, nor of their possession: but out of his own possession he shall give an inheritance to his sons: that my people be not dispersed every man from his possession. Ezec. 46:18
And you shall possess it, every man in like manner as his brother: concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for a possession. Ezec. 47:14
The sanctuary shall be for the priests of the sons of Sadoc, who kept my ceremonies, and went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites also went astray. Ezec. 48:11
And the prince of the eunuchs said to Daniel: I fear my lord, the king, who hath appointed you meat and drink: who if he should see your faces leaner than those of the other youths, your equals, you shall endanger my head to the king. Dan. 1:10
And the king, answering, said to the Chaldeans: The thing is gone out of my mind: unless you tell me the dream, and the meaning thereof, you shall be put to death, and your houses shall be confiscated. Dan. 2:5
And Nabuchodonosor, the king, spoke to them, and said: Is it true, O Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, that you do not worship my gods, nor adore the golden statue that I have set up? Dan. 3:14
Now, therefore, if you be ready, at what hour soever, you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, flute, harp, sackbut, and psaltery, and symphony, and of all kind of music, prostrate yourselves, and adore the statue which I have made: but if you do not adore, you shall be cast the same hour into the furnace of burning fire: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hand? Dan. 3:15
I, Nabuchodonosor, was at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace: Dan. 4:4
I saw a dream that affrighted me: and my thoughts in my bed, and the visions of my head, troubled me. Dan. 4:5
Till their colleague, Daniel, came in before me, whose name is Baltassar, according to the name of my god, who hath in him the spirit of the holy gods: and I told the dream before him. Dan. 4:8
Baltassar, prince of the diviners, because I know that thou hast in thee the spirit of the holy gods, and that no secret is impossible to thee, tell me the visions of my dreams that I have seen, and the interpretation of them? Dan. 4:9
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 watcher, and a holy one came down from heaven. Dan. 4:13
I, king Nabuchodonosor, saw this dream: thou, therefore, O Baltassar, tell me quickly the interpretation: for all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to declare the meaning of it to me: but thou art able, because the spirit of the holy gods is in thee. Dan. 4:18
Then Daniel, whose name was Baltassar, began silently to think within himself for about one hour: and his thoughts troubled him. But the king answering, said: Baltassar, let not the dream and the interpretation thereof trouble thee. Baltassar answered, and said: My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thy enemies. Dan. 4:19
This is the interpretation of the sentence of the most High, which is come upon my lord, the king. Dan. 4:24
Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to thee, and redeem thou thy sins with alms, and thy iniquities with works of mercy to the poor: perhaps he will forgive thy offences. Dan. 4:27
And the king answered, and said: Is not this the great Babylon, which I have built, to be the seat of the kingdom, by the strength of my power, and in the glory of my excellence? Dan. 4:30
Now at the end of the days, I, Nabuchodonosor, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my sense was restored to me: and I blessed the most High, and I praised and glorified him that liveth for ever: for his power is an everlasting power, and his kingdom is to all generations. Dan. 4:34
At the same time my sense returned to me, and I came to the honour and glory of my kingdom: and my shape returned to me: and my nobles, and my magistrates, sought for me, and I was restored to my kingdom: and greater majesty was added to me. Dan. 4:36
And 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
Then Daniel was brought in before the king. And the king spoke, and said to him: Art thou Daniel, of the children of the captivity of Juda, whom my father, the king, brought out of Judea? Dan. 5:13
But 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
My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut up the mouths of the lions, and they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him justice hath been found in me: yea, and before thee, O king, I have done no offence. Dan. 6:22
It is decreed by me, that in all my empire and my kingdom, all men dread and fear the God of Daniel. For he is the living and eternal God for ever: and his kingdom shall not be destroyed, and his power shall be for ever. Dan. 6:26
And Daniel said: I adore the Lord, my God: for he is the living God: but that is no living god. Dan. 14:24
I saw in my vision by night, and behold the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. Dan. 7:2
My spirit trembled; I, Daniel, was affrighted at these things, and the visions of my head troubled me. Dan. 7:15
Hitherto is the end of the word. I, Daniel, was much troubled with my thoughts, and my countenance was changed in me: but I kept the word in my heart. Dan. 7:28
Saw in my vision when I was in the castle of Susa, which is in the province of Elam: and I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai. Dan. 8:2
And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold a ram stood before the water, having two high horns, and one higher than the other, and growing up. Afterward Dan. 8:3
And he came, and stood near where I stood: and when he was come, I fell on my face, trembling, and he said to me: Understand, O son of man, for in the time of the end the vision shall be fulfilled. Dan. 8:17
And I set my face to the Lord, my God, to pray and make supplication with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes. Dan. 9:3
And I prayed to the Lord, my God, and I made my confession, and said: I beseech thee, O Lord God, great and terrible, who keepest the covenant, and mercy to them that love thee, and keep thy commandments. Dan. 9:4
Incline, O my God, thy ear, and hear: open thy eyes, and see our desolation, and the city upon which thy name is called: for it is not for our justifications that we present our prayers before thy face, but for the multitude of thy tender mercies. Dan. 9:18
O Lord, hear: O Lord, be appeased: hearken, and do: delay not, for thy own sake, O my God: because thy name is invocated upon thy city, and upon thy people. Dan. 9:19
Now while I was yet speaking, and praying, and confessing my sins, and the sins of my people of Israel, and presenting my supplications in the sight of my God, for the holy mountain of my God: Dan. 9:20
I ate no desirable bread, and neither flesh, nor wine, entered into my mouth, neither was I anointed with ointment: till the days of three weeks were accomplished. Dan. 10:3
And 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 I, being left alone, saw this great vision: and there remained no strength in me, and the appearance of my countenance was changed in me, and I fainted away, and retained no strength. Dan. 10:8
And I heard the voice of his words: and when I heard I lay in a consternation upon my face, and my face was close to the ground. Dan. 10:9
And behold a hand touched me, and lifted me up upon my knees, and upon the joints of my hands. Dan. 10:10
And when he was speaking such words to me, I cast down my countenance to the ground, and held my peace. Dan. 10:15
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
And how can the servant of my lord speak with my lord? for no strength remaineth in me; moreover, my breath is stopped. Dan. 10:17
And he said: Fear not, O man of desires, peace be to thee: take courage, and be strong. And when he spoke to me, I grew strong, and I said: Speak, O my lord, for thou hast strengthened me. Dan. 10:19
But I will tell thee what is set down in the scripture of truth: and none is my helper in all these things, but Michael your prince. Dan. 10:21
And I heard, and understood not. And I said: O my lord, what shall be after these things? Dan. 12:8
And he said: Call his name, Not my people: for you are not my people, and I will not be yours. Osee 1:9

And she shall follow after her lovers, and shall not overtake them: and she shall seek them, and shall not find, and she shall say: I will go, and return to my first husband: because it was better with me then than now. Osee 2:7
Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in its season, and my wine in its season, and I will set at liberty my wool, and my flax, which covered her disgrace. Osee 2:9
And now I will lay open her folly in the eyes of her lovers: and no man shall deliver her out of my hand: Osee 2:10

¤ Now concerning spiritual things, my brethren, I would not have you ignorant. 1 Cor. 12:1

And to pass by you into Macedonia: and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be brought on my way towards Judea. 2 Cor. 1:16
But I call God to witness upon my soul that to spare you, I came not any more to Corinth: 2 Cor. 1:23
And I wrote this same to you: that I may not, when I come, have sorrow upon sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice: having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all. 2 Cor. 2:3
I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but bidding them farewell, I went into Macedonia. 2 Cor. 2:13
But having the same recompense (I speak as to my children): be you also enlarged. 2 Cor. 6:13
And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God: as God saith: I will dwell in them and walk among them. And I will be their God: and they shall be my people. 2 Cor. 6:16
And will be a Father to you: and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. 2 Cor. 6:18
Great is my confidence for you: great is my glorying for you. I am filled with comfort: I exceedingly abound with joy in all our tribulation. 2 Cor. 7:4

¤ Would to God you could bear with some little of my folly! But do bear with me. 2 Cor. 11:1
In journeying often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils from my own nation, in perils from the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils from false brethren: 2 Cor. 11:26
Besides those things which are without: my daily instance, the solicitude for all the churches. 2 Cor. 11:28
If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things that concern my infirmity. 2 Cor. 11:30
For such an one I will glory: but for myself I will glory nothing but in my infirmities. 2 Cor. 12:5
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
And he said to me: My grace is sufficient for thee: for power is made perfect in infirmity. Gladly therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 2 Cor. 12:9
For which cause I please myself in my infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ. For when I am weak, then am I powerful. 2 Cor. 12:10
Yet the signs of my apostleship have been wrought on you, in all patience, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds. 2 Cor. 12:12
Of old, think you that we excuse ourselves to you? We speak before God in Christ: but all things, my dearly beloved, for your edification. 2 Cor. 12:19
For you have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion: how that, beyond measure, I persecuted the church of God and wasted it. Gal. 1:13
And I made progress in the Jews' religion above many of my equals in my own nation, being more abundantly zealous for the traditions of my fathers. Gal. 1:14
But when it pleased him who separated me from my mother's womb and called me by his grace, Gal. 1:15
And you know how, through infirmity of the flesh, I preached the gospel to you heretofore: and your temptation in my flesh Gal. 4:13
My little children, of whom I am in labour again, until Christ be formed in you. Gal. 4:19
And I would willingly be present with you now and change my voice: because I am ashamed for you. Gal. 4:20
See what a letter I have written to you with my own hand. Gal. 6:11
From henceforth let no man be troublesome to me: for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus in my body. Gal. 6:17
Cease not to give thanks for you, making commemoration of you in my prayers, Eph. 1:16
As you reading, may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ, Eph. 3:4

For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Eph. 3:14
And for me, that speech may be given me, that I may open my mouth with confidence, to make known the mystery of the gospel, Eph. 6:19
But that you also may know the things that concern me and what I am doing, Tychicus, my dearest brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make known to you all things: Eph. 6:21
I give thanks to my God in every remembrance of you: Phil. 1:3
Always in all my prayers making supplication for you all with joy: Phil. 1:4
As it is meet for me to think this for you all, for that I have you in my heart; and that, in my bands and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of my joy. Phil. 1:7
For God is my witness how I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ. Phil. 1:8
So that my bands are made manifest in Christ, in all the court and in all other places. Phil. 1:13
And many of the brethren in the Lord, growing confident by my bands, are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear. Phil. 1:14
And some out of contention preach Christ not sincerely: supposing that they raise affliction to my bands. Phil. 1:16
According to my expectation and hope; that in nothing I shall be confounded: but with all confidence, as always, so now also, shall Christ be magnified in my body, whether it be by life or by death. Phil. 1:20
That your rejoicing may abound in Christ Jesus for me, by my coming to you again. Phil. 1:26
Fulfil ye my joy, that you be of one mind, having the same charity, being of one accord, agreeing in sentiment. Phil. 2:2
Wherefore, my dearly beloved, (as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only but much more now in my absence) with fear and trembling work out your salvation. Phil. 2:12
Holding forth the word of life to my glory in the day of Christ: because I have not run in vain, nor laboured in vain. Phil. 2:16
But I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow labourer and fellow soldier, but your apostle: and he that hath ministered to my wants. Phil. 2:25
Because for the work of Christ he came to the point of death: delivering his life, that he might fulfil that which on your part was wanting towards my service. Phil. 2:30
¤ As to the rest, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not wearisome, but to you it is necessary. Phil. 3:1
Furthermore, I count all things to be but loss for the excellent knowledge of Jesus Christ, my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things and count them but as dung, that I may gain Christ. Phil. 3:8
And may be found in him, not having my justice, which is of the law, but that which is of the faith of Christ Jesus, which is of God: justice in faith. Phil. 3:9
¤ Therefore my dearly beloved brethren and most desired, my joy and my crown: so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved. Phil. 4:1
And I entreat thee also, my sincere companion, help those women who have laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement and the rest of my fellow labourers, whose names are in the book of life. Phil. 4:3
Nevertheless, you have done well in communicating to my tribulation. Phil. 4:14
For unto Thessalonica also you sent once and again for my use. Phil. 4:16
And may my God supply all your want, according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Phil. 4:19
Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you and fill up those things that are wanting of the sufferings of Christ, in my flesh, for his body, which is the church: Col. 1:24

Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, saluteth you: and Mark, the cousin german of Barnabas, touching whom you have received commandments. If he come unto you, receive him. Col. 4:10
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
The salutation of Paul with my own hand. Be mindful of my bands. Grace be with you. Amen. Col. 4:18
The salutation of Paul with my own hand: which is the sign in every epistle. So I write. 2 Th. 3:17
Which is according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God which hath been committed to my trust. 1 Tim. 1:11
To Timothy, my dearly beloved son. Grace, mercy and peace, from God the Father and from Christ Jesus our Lord. 2 Tim. 1:2
I give thanks to God, whom I serve from my forefathers, with a pure conscience, that without ceasing I have a remembrance of thee in my prayers, night and day. 2 Tim. 1:3
For which cause I admonish thee that thou stir up the grace of God which is in thee by the imposition of my hands. 2 Tim. 1:6
The Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus: because he hath often refreshed me and hath not been ashamed of my chain: 2 Tim. 1:16

But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, patience, 2 Tim. 3:10
For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand. 2 Tim. 4:6
I have fought a good fight: I have finished my course: I have kept the faith. 2 Tim. 4:7
At my first answer, no man stood with me: but all forsook me. May it not be laid to their charge! 2 Tim. 4:16
To Titus, my beloved son according to the common faith, grace and peace, from God the Father and from Christ Jesus our Saviour. Tit. 1:4
I give thanks to my God, always making a remembrance of thee in my prayers. Ph'm 1:4
I beseech thee for my son, whom I have begotten in my bands, Onesimus, Ph'm 1:10
Whom I have sent back to thee. And do thou receive him as my own bowels. Ph'm 1:12
And if he hath wronged thee in any thing or is in thy debt, put that to my account. Ph'm 1:18
I Paul have written it with my own hand: I will repay it: not to say to thee that thou owest me thy own self also. Ph'm 1:19
Yea, brother. May I enjoy thee in the Lord! Refresh my bowels in the Lord. Ph'm 1:20
There salute thee Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus: Ph'm 1:23
Mark, Aristarchus, Demas and Luke, my fellow labourers. Ph'm 1:24
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 again: I will put my trust in him. And again: Behold I and my children, whom God hath given me. Heb. 2:13
Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works, Heb. 3:9
Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways. Heb. 3:10
As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest. Heb. 3:11
For we, who have believed, shall enter into rest; as he said: As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest; and this indeed when the works from the foundation of the world were finished. Heb. 4:3
And in this place again: If they shall enter into my rest. Heb. 4:5
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
But, my dearly beloved, we trust better things of you, and nearer to salvation; though we speak thus. Heb. 6:9
Not according to the testament which I made to their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt: because they continued not in my testament: and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. Heb. 8:9

And you have forgotten the consolation which speaketh to you, as unto children, saying: My son, neglect not the discipline of the Lord: neither be thou wearied whilst thou art rebuked by him. Heb. 12:5

My brethren, count it all joy, when you shall fall into divers temptations: Jas. 1:2

And you have respect to him that is clothed with the fine apparel and shall say to him: Sit thou here well: but say to the poor man: Stand thou there, or: Sit under my footstool: Jas. 2:3
Hearken, my dearest brethren: Hath not God chosen the poor in this world, rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which God hath promised to them that love him? Jas. 2:5
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
But some man will say: Thou hast faith, and I have works. Shew me thy faith without works; and I will shew thee, by works, my faith. Jas. 2:18
¤ Be ye not many masters, my brethren, knowing that you receive the greater judgment. Jas. 3:1
Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. Jas. 3:10
Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear grapes? Or the vine, figs? So neither can the salt water yield sweet. Jas. 3:12
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
Take, my brethren, for an example of suffering evil, of labour and patience, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. Jas. 5:10
But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath. But let your speech be: Yea, Yea: No, No: that you fall not under judgment. Jas. 5:12
My brethren, if any of you err from the truth and one convert him: Jas. 5:19

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
¤ My little children, these things I write to you, that you may not sin. But if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the just. 1 Jn. 2:1
My little children, let us not love in word nor in tongue, but in deed and in truth. 1 Jn. 3:18
My dearest, if God hath so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 1 Jn. 4:11

He that shall overcome shall thus be clothed in white garments: and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life. And I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels. Apoc. 3:5

¤ IN the thirteth yeare of the ruine of the citie I was in Babylon, and was trubled lying in my chamber, and my cogitations came vp ouer my hart: 4 Esd. 3:1
And my spirit was tossed excedingly, and I began to speake to the highest timorous wordes, 4 Esd. 3:3
It came to passe when I was come hither, and had sene the impieties that can not be numbred: and my soul saw manie offending this thirteth yeare, & my hart was astonied: 4 Esd. 3:29
And I sayd: It is so my Lord. And he answered me, & sayd: I am sent to shew thee three wayes, & to propose to thee three similitudes. 4 Esd. 4:3
And I sayd, Speak my Lord. And he sayd to me: Goe, wey me the weight of the fire, or measure me the blast of the winde, or cal me backe the day that is past. 4 Esd. 4:5
and how can thy vessel comprehend the way of the Highest, and now the world being outwardly corrupted, vnderstand the corruption euident in my sight: 4 Esd. 4:11
And I awaked, and my bodie did shiuer excedingly: and my soule laboured, that it fainted: 4 Esd. 5:14
and the Angel that came, that spake in me, held me, and strengthened me, and sette me vpon my feete. 4 Esd. 5:15
And it came to passe after seuen dayes, and againe cogitations of my hart molested me very much, 4 Esd. 5:21
and my soule resumed the spirit of vnderstanding: & agayne I began to speake wordes before the Highest: 4 Esd. 5:22
And I sayd: Speake my Lord. And he sayd to me: Thou art become excedingly in excesse of minde for Israel: hast thou loued it more then him that made it? 4 Esd. 5:33
And I sayd to him: No Lord, but for sorow I haue spoken, for my veynes torment me euerie houre, to apprehend the pathe of the Highest, and to search part of his iudgement. 4 Esd. 5:34
And he sayd to me: Thou canst not. And I sayd: Why Lord? To what was I borne, or why was not my mothers wombe my graue, that I might not see the labour of Iacob, & the wearines of the stocke of Israel? 4 Esd. 5:35
And he sayd to me: As thou canst not doe one of these thiges, which haue bene sayd: so canst thou not finde my iudgement, or in the end the charitie, which I haue promised to the people. 4 Esd. 5:40
And he sayd to me: I wil resemble my iudgement to a crowne. As there shal not be slacknes of the last, so neither swiftnes of the former. 4 Esd. 5:42
And it came to passe, when I had heard, I rose vpon my feete, and I heard: and behold a voice speaking, and the sound therof as the sound of manie waters: 4 Esd. 6:17
and it shal be, euerie one that shal be leaft of al these, of whom I haue foretold thee, he shal be saued, and shal see my saluation, & the end of your world. 4 Esd. 6:25
And it came to passe in the eight night, and my hart was trubled againe in me, and I began to speake before the Highest. 4 Esd. 6:36
For my spirit was inflamed excedingly, and my soul was distressed. 4 Esd. 6:37
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
For I made the world for them: and when Adam transgressed my constitution, that was iudged which was done. 4 Esd. 7:11
and euerie one that is deliuered from the foresaid euils, he shal see my meruelous thinges. 4 Esd. 7:27
For my sonne IESVS shal be reueled with them that are with him, and they shal be merie that are leaft in the foure hundred yeares. 4 Esd. 7:28
And it shal be after these yeares, and my sonne CHRIST shal dye: and al men that haue breath, 4 Esd. 7:29
This is my judgement and the ordinance thereof; but to thee only have I shewed these things. 4 Esd. 7:44
But as touching them for whom my prayer was made, what shall I say? for who is there of them that be alive that hath not sinned, and who of the sons of men that hath not transgressed thy covenant? 4 Esd. 7:46
So also is the judgement which I have promised: for I will rejoice over the few that shall be saved, inasmuch as these are they that have made my glory now to prevail, and of whom my name is now named. 4 Esd. 7:60
And he answered me, and said, Since thou hast found favour in my sight, I will shew thee this also: The day of judgement is a day of decision, and displayeth unto all the seal of truth; even as now a father sendeth not his son, or a son his father, or a master his slave, or a friend him that is most dear, that in his stead he may be sick, or sleep, or eat, or be healed: 4 Esd. 7:104
and sayd: This is my word the first and the last, that it had bene better not to geue the earth to Adam, or when he had now geuen it, to restraine him that he should not sinne. 4 Esd. 7:116
Therfore heare my voyce, and vnderstand my word, and I wil speake before thee. 4 Esd. 8:19
For thou lackest much to be able to loue my creature aboue me: and to thee often times, euen to thyselfe I haue approched, but to the vniust neuer. 4 Esd. 8:47
Wherfore my iudgement now approcheth. 4 Esd. 8:61
shal be leaft out of the foresayd dangers, and shal see my saluation in my land, and in my costes, because I haue sancitifed my selfe from the world. 4 Esd. 9:8
And then shal they be in miserie, that now haue abused my wayes: and they that haue reiected them in contempt, shal abide in torments. 4 Esd. 9:9
and they that loathed my law, when they yet had libertie, 4 Esd. 9:11
And I saw, and spared it very much: and I kept vnto my selfe a grape kernel of a cluster, and a plant of a great trybe. 4 Esd. 9:21
Let the multitude therfore perish, which was borne without cause, and let my kernel be kept, & my plant: because I finished it with much labour. 4 Esd. 9:22
And it came to passe after seuen dayes, and I sate downe vpon the grasse, and my hart was trubled ayayne as before. 4 Esd. 9:27
And my mouth was opened, and I beganne to speake before the Highest, and sayd: 4 Esd. 9:28
Thou Israel heare me, and sede of Iacob attend to my wordes. 4 Esd. 9:30
For behold, I sow my lawe in you, and it shal bring forth fruite in you, and you shal be glorified in it for euer. 4 Esd. 9:31
For our fathers receiuing the law obserued it not, and kept not my ordinances, and the fruite of the law did not appeare: for it could not, because it was thine. 4 Esd. 9:32
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
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 my sonne was entred into his inner chamber, he fel downe, and dyed: 4 Esd. 10:1
and we al ouerthrewe the lights, and al my citizens rose vp to comfort me, and I was quiet vntil the other day at night. 4 Esd. 10:2
And if thou say vnto me, that my mourning is not lyke the earthes: because I haue lost the fruite of my wombe, which I bare with sorrowes, and brought forth with paynes: 4 Esd. 10:12
Where is Vriel the Angel, that from the beginning came to me? for he made me come in multitude in excesse of this minde, and my end is made into corruption, & my prayer into reproch. 4 Esd. 10:28
And behold I was layd as dead, & my vnderstanding was alienated, and he held my right hand, and strengthned me, & set me vpon my feete, & sayd to me: 4 Esd. 10:30
Speake thou my Lord in me, forsake me not, that I die not in vaine: 4 Esd. 10:34
Or is my sense deceiued, & doth my soule dreame? 4 Esd. 10:36
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
Is it not thou that hast ouercome of the foure beastes, which I made to reigne in my world, and that by them the end of their times might come? 4 Esd. 11:39
And I saw, and behold they appeared not, and al the bodie of the eagle was burnt, & the earth was afrayd excedingly, and I by the tumult and traunce of minde, and for great feare awaked, and sayd to my spirit: 4 Esd. 12:3
Behold yet I am wearie in minde, and in my spirit I am very feeble, and there is not so much as a litle strength in me for the great feare, that I was afrayd of this night. 4 Esd. 12:5
And I sayd: Lord Dominatour, if I haue found grace before thine eyes, and if I am iustified before thee aboue manie, and if in deede my prayer be ascended before thy face, 4 Esd. 12:7
strengthen me, and shew vnto me thy seruant the interpretation, and distinction of this horrible vision, that thou mayst comfort my soule most fully. 4 Esd. 12:8
For the rest of my people he shal deliuer with miserie, them that are saued vpon my borders, and he shal make them ioyful til the end shal come, the day of iudgment, wherof I haue spoken to thee from the beginning. 4 Esd. 12:34
but I sate in the fielde seuen dayes, as he commanded me: and I did eate of the flowers of the field only, of the herbes was my meate made in those dayes. 4 Esd. 12:51
Thou from the beginning hast shewed thy seruant these meruelous thinges, and hast counted me worthie that thou wouldest receiue my petition. 4 Esd. 13:14
For as I thinke in my iudgement, woe to them that were leaft in those dayes: & much more woe to them that were not leaft. 4 Esd. 13:16
And it shal be, when these thinges shal come to passe, and the signes shal happen, which I shewed thee before: and then shal my sonne be reueled, whom thou sawest, as a man coming vp. 4 Esd. 13:32
And the same my sonne shal reproue the thinges that the gentils haue inuented, these their impieties which came nere to the tempest, because of their euil cogitaitons, and torments wherewith they shal begin to be tormented. 4 Esd. 13:37
But they also that were leaft of the people, these are they that be within my border. 4 Esd. 13:48
As thou canst not either search these thinges, or know what thinges are in the depth of the sea: so can not any man vpon the earth see my sonne, or them that are with him, but in the time of a day. 4 Esd. 13:52
For thou hast leaft thyne owne law, and hast bene occupied about my law, and hast sought it. 4 Esd. 13:54
And behold a voice came forth against me out of a bush, and sayd: Esdras, Esdras: and I sayd: Loe here I am Lord. And I arose vpon my feete. And he sayd to me: 4 Esd. 14:2
and I sent him, and brought my people out of AEgypt, and brought him vpon mount Sina, & held him with me manie dayes. 4 Esd. 14:4
And I opened my mouth, & behold a ful cuppe was brought me, this was ful as it were with water: but the colour therof like as fire. 4 Esd. 14:39
And I tooke it, and dranke; and when I had drunken of it, my hart was tormented with vnderstanding, and wisdome grewe into my brest. For my spirit was kept by memorie. 4 Esd. 14:40
And my mouth was opened, and was shut no more. 4 Esd. 14:41
And at night they did eate breade, but I spake by day, & by night held not my peace. 4 Esd. 14:43
¤ BEHOLD speake into the eares of my people the wordes of prophecie, which I shal put into thy mouth, sayth our Lord: 4 Esd. 15:1
Behold my people is led to slaughter as a flocke, I wil no more suffer it to dwel in the land of AEgypt. 4 Esd. 15:10
My right hand shal not spare sinners, neither shal the sword cease vpon them that shede innocent bloud vpon the earth. 4 Esd. 15:22
Woe to them that sinne, and obserue not my comandmentes, sayth our Lord. 4 Esd. 15:24
I wil not spare them: depart o children from the powre. Defile not my sanctification: 4 Esd. 15:25
